Standard Time on the date that is twenty-one (21) days after the later to occur

Date) and (ii) the date
4
of Purchaser's receipt of the Updated Survey (the "Title Approval Date") to
review the Updated Title Commitment, Title Documents and the Updated Survey
(collectively, "Title Evidence") and render any objections as to matters of
title in writing to Seller. Any such matters of title not timely objected to by
Purchaser shall be deemed waived and Purchaser shall be deemed to agree to
acquire the Property subject to such exceptions (collectively, "Permitted
Exceptions") hereunder. Seller, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect
to remove or satisfy any such objections, provided that Seller shall have ten
(10) days from the date of such objections to have such objections that Seller
so elects removed or satisfied. Subject to Purchaser's approval, which may be
granted in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion, Seller may cause the Title
Company to issue a title endorsement or "insure over" any objection (each, a
"Seller Endorsement") and it shall have the same effect as if such objection was
cured by Seller. If Seller shall fail to have such objections removed, insured
over or satisfied within such time or during such time delivers a written notice
to Purchaser that notwithstanding Seller's reasonable efforts, such objections
may not be cured, then, Purchaser may, by written notice to Seller within five
(5) days after the expiration of such time or the delivery of such written
notice, either (a) terminate this Agreement without any liability on its part,
Purchaser shall return all documents, including all Due Diligence Documents (as
hereinafter defined in Section 3.6(c)), received from Seller or Seller's agents
to Seller and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations
hereunder (except as set forth in Sections 3.5(a) and (e), 3.6(b), 9.1, 11.2 and
11.12 hereof) or (b) proceed to Closing and take title subject to such
objections, in which case such non-cured objections shall become Permitted
Exceptions hereunder. After the Title Approval Date but prior to the Closing
Date, Purchaser shall also have the right to disapprove in writing any
additional item not previously set forth in the Title Commitment that Title
Company intends to show as an exception to title in the Title Policy. Any such
additional item not specifically disapproved in writing delivered within three
(3) Business Days following Purchaser's receipt of written notice of such
additional item shall be deemed approved. Seller shall have until Closing to
remove or cause Title Company to insure over (subject to Purchaser's approval,
which may be granted in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion) any such
disapproved item at Seller's own expense. Seller may elect to (a) extend the
Closing until the day after the date upon which Seller is able to remove or
cause Title Company to insure over (subject to Purchaser's approval, which may
be granted in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion) any such disapproved
item (but in no event shall such extension exceed ten (10) Business Days after
the Closing Date), or (b) terminate this Agreement, unless Purchaser elects to
take title subject to such disapproved item, and, if Seller elects to terminate
this Agreement, Purchaser shall return all documents, including all Due
Diligence Documents, received from Seller or Seller's agents, to Seller and, in
the absence of a default by Purchaser, the Deposit shall be returned to
Purchaser and, thereupon, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any further
obligation hereunder (except as set forth under Sections 3.5(a) and (e), 3.6(b),
9.1, 11.2 and 11.12 hereof). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, and notwithstanding any approval or consent given by Purchaser
hereunder, Seller shall cause all mortgages and deeds of trust encumbering
Seller's interest in the Real Property and all mechanic's liens filed against
the Property relating to work performed on the Property and contracted for by
Seller, to be released and reconveyed from the Real Property, or, with respect
to such
5
mechanic's liens, otherwise bonded (subject to Purchaser's reasonable approval),
on or prior to the Closing and shall cause the Title Company to insure title to
the Real Property as vested in Purchaser without any exception for such matters.
3.3 Vesting of Title.
At Closing, Seller shall convey the Real Property and Improvements to
Purchaser by special warranty deed (as further described in Section 4.2(a)(i)
below), subject to the Permitted Exceptions, and shall convey Seller's interest
in the Personal Property to Purchaser by xxxx of sale (as further described in
Section 4.2(a)(ii) below).
3.4 Title Insurance.
At Closing, the Title Company shall issue to Purchaser an extended ALTA
Owner's Policy of Title Insurance in the amount of the Purchase Price insuring
that title to the Real Property and Improvements is vested in Purchaser subject
only to the Permitted Exceptions and with such endorsements as Purchaser shall
reasonably specify (the "Title Policy").
3.5 Inspection Period.
Purchaser shall have until 5:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on June 23,
2000, (the "Inspection Period") to inspect the Property and the Due Diligence
Documents, and to perform such other due diligence with respect to the Property
as Purchaser reasonably deems necessary, subject to the rights of tenants in
possession of the Property. Purchaser agrees to immediately commence its
inspection efforts and will pursue same diligently, and will advise Purchaser of
its findings as soon as practicable. Purchaser may, on or before the final day
of the Inspection Period (the "Out Date"), in its sole discretion, advise Seller
and Escrow Holder, in writing, of its election to proceed with the purchase of
the Property. If Purchaser, in its sole discretion, decides that it will not
proceed with the purchase of the Property, Purchaser shall on or before the Out
Date give notice to Seller and Escrow Holder that it is terminating this
Agreement. If Purchaser fails to notify Seller and Escrow Holder of its decision
on or before the Out Date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified Seller and
Escrow Holder on the Out Date that Purchaser is terminating this Agreement. Upon
any such termination, all documents, including all Due Diligence Documents,
received from Seller or Seller's agents, shall be returned by Purchaser to
Seller, and, subject to Sections 3.5(a) and (e), 3.6(b), 9.1, 11.2 and 11.12
hereof, neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder. In
the event this Agreement is not so terminated, the Deposit shall be delivered as
hereinabove provided and shall become non-refundable (subject to the other terms
and conditions of this Agreement) and Seller and Purchaser shall proceed to
Closing in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and the Inspection
Period termination rights shall be deemed waived by Purchaser. Purchaser shall
not undertake any soil borings, ground water testing or other "Phase 2"
investigative procedures without first having obtained the prior written consent
of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In
connection with Purchaser's inspection of the Property, Purchaser agrees that:

incurred by Purchaser relating to the inspection of the Property will

normal business hours whenever feasible unless otherwise requested by
Seller;
(c) Seller will have the right to have one or more representatives of

designees while they are on the Property (provided that the exercise
of such right shall not unreasonably delay Purchaser's inspections);
(d) Any entry by Purchaser, its representatives, agents or designees will
not unreasonably interfere with Seller's use of the Property or with
the operations of any tenant;
(e) Purchaser will restore any damage caused to the Property by
Purchaser's entry on the Property for inspection purposes at
Purchaser's sole cost and expense if this transaction does not close;
and
(f) In making any inspection hereunder, Purchaser will treat and will
cause any representative of Purchaser to treat all information
obtained by Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as
confidential in accordance with Section 11.12 below.
Purchaser shall have the right to further inspect the Property as provided in
Section 3.6(b) hereafter (during normal business hours and upon notice to
Seller), including for the purpose of confirming that the Property is in the
same condition at Closing as existing at the end of the Inspection Period,
reasonable wear and tear excepted; provided, however, that such continuing right
of inspection shall in no way be deemed to extend or resurrect the Inspection
Period or constitute a condition to Closing, subject however, to the other terms
and conditions of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term
"Business Day" shall mean a day other than any Saturday, Sunday, or day upon
which national banks in the City of Boulder, Colorado are not open for general
banking business.

5. PRORATIONS; CLOSING ITEMS
5.1 Prorations; Closing Costs; Reserve Accounts.
(a) The amount due on any gas, electric, water, sewer, or other utility
xxxx, or service contract relating to the Property shall be prorated
between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing Date, to the extent
such utilities or service contracts are the obligation of the Seller
and not a direct or indirect obligation of a tenant under any of the
Leases. Any utility deposits made by Seller shall be and remain the
property of Seller.
(b) All collected rents and other payments from each tenant under the
Leases, including, but not limited to, base rent, additional rent,
percentage rent (if any), and expense reimbursements, shall be
prorated between Seller and
13
Purchaser as of the Closing Date. The balance remaining from any
security deposits or prepaid rent under the Leases held by Seller
shall be credited to Purchaser (including the balance of estimated
tax, insurance and common area maintenance payments made to Seller by
tenants under the Leases net of any payments by Seller thereon).
Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and
against any loss, cost or expense (including, but not limited to,
attorneys' fees and expenses) resulting from any claim for such
deposits or prepaid rent actually paid or credited to Purchaser. If
any rent or other payments under the Leases are in arrears as of the
Closing Date ("Delinquent Rents"), the amount of any such Delinquent
Rents which are collected by Purchaser shall be promptly paid by
Purchaser to Seller after Closing. Purchaser shall be entitled to
deduct from any such payment (i) Purchaser's reasonable costs of
collection incurred with respect to such Delinquent Rents (including
attorneys' fees), (ii) rents due for the month in which such payment
is received by Purchaser, and (iii) rents from such tenant
attributable to any period after the Closing that are past due on the
date of receipt. Purchaser agrees to periodically invoice tenants in
an effort to collect Delinquent Rents after the Closing provided
Purchaser shall not be required to bring any action or proceeding
against any tenant on account of Delinquent Rents. Purchaser's
obligations hereunder with respect to the collection and payment of
Delinquent Rents shall survive the Closing. Seller may make reasonable
efforts to collect Delinquent Rents from and after the Closing Date;
provided, however, that Seller shall not be entitled to pursue any
action for eviction of any tenant from the Property. The provisions of
this Section shall survive Closing and shall not be merged therein.
(c) All real estate taxes (whether general or special) and personal
property taxes payable in respect of the Property for the calendar
year 2000 shall be prorated as of the Closing; provided, Seller shall
be entitled to recover any reimbursements from the tenants on account
of such taxes for the period prior to Closing, and Purchaser shall
immediately remit to Seller any such reimbursements received by
Purchaser upon receipt thereof, subject to Section 5.1(b) above. Any
real estate taxes (whether general or special) and personal property
taxes due and payable for any periods subsequent to the calendar year
2000 shall be the obligation of Purchaser and any real estate taxes
(whether general or special) and personal property taxes due and
payable for any periods prior to calendar year 2000 shall be the
obligation of Seller, provided Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller
to obtain any reimbursement from any tenant in respect of any such
taxes. Seller and Purchaser agree to mutually cooperate with each
other in connection with ongoing real estate tax reduction proceedings
relating to prior tax years, if any, and any ongoing or future
proceedings relating to the year in which the Closing occurs, if any,
and any refund resulting therefrom (to the extent not refundable to
tenants under the Leases) shall be prorated between Seller and
Purchaser based on the Closing Date, after deducting therefrom the
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
14
parties. The provisions of the immediately preceding two sentences
shall survive Closing and shall not be merged therein.
(d) Purchaser shall pay the cost of any endorsements (other than Seller
Endorsements) or special or extended coverages of any nature in
connection with the Title Policy, one-half (1/2) of any escrow fees
and closing fees to the Escrow Holder, and any lender's title
insurance coverage on account of any loan obtained by Purchaser.
Purchaser shall pay for all costs relating to any financing obtained
by Purchaser in connection with its purchase of the Property and all
costs incurred by Purchaser in performing any related tests and
investigations. Seller shall pay for the cost of recording the Deed,
the base premium for the Title Policy and for the Seller Endorsements
(but not the cost of any endorsements or special or extended coverages
other than the Seller Endorsements), any customary updates to the
Survey, one-half (1/2) of all escrow fees and closing fees charged by
the Escrow Holder, any prepayment or reconveyance fee in connection
with any payoff or release of any existing deed of trust or mortgage,
documentary stamp taxes, if any, and the recording fees with respect
to documents which Seller elects to place of record in order to cure
title objections raised by Purchaser to the extent Seller elects to
cure the same, as fully described in Section 3.2. Each party shall pay
its own attorneys' fees.
5.2 Calculation of Prorations
For purposes of calculating prorations, Seller shall be deemed to be in
title to the Property, and therefore entitled to the income therefrom and
responsible for the expenses thereof, through the day prior to the Closing Date
and Purchaser shall be deemed to be in title to the Property, and therefore
entitled to the income therefrom and responsible for the expenses thereof, from
and after 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date. All prorations shall be made on the
basis of the actual number of days of the year and month which have elapsed as
of the Closing Date. All prorations which cannot be ascertained as of the
Closing shall be prorated on the basis of the parties' reasonable estimate of
such amount. Except as otherwise stated above, if necessary, the amount of
prorations shall be adjusted in cash after Closing, as and when complete and
accurate information becomes available but in any event no later than ninety
(90) days after the Closing Date; provided, however, the ninety (90) day period
shall be extended for a reasonable time for any real property tax reduction or
abatement proceeds, which are to be prorated between Purchaser and Seller
pursuant to Section 5.1(c), and for a period of one (1) year after the Closing
Date for reconciliation of tax, insurance, and common area maintenance expenses
for the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs. Purchaser and Seller
each agree to reasonably cooperate with the other with respect to such final
proration. This provision shall survive Closing and shall not be merged therein.

PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT PURCHASER IS NOT RELYING ON
ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, FROM SELLER, SELLER'S AGENTS OR BROKERS, AS TO ANY MATTER
CONCERNING THE PROPERTY (EXCEPT FOR

AND WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 6.1(a) THROUGH (l)

Seller relating to Hazardous Materials in, on or under the Property.

fees and expenses), which sum shall be paid by Seller to Purchaser
within ten (10) days of presentment by Purchaser of invoices and/or,
receipts reasonably acceptable to Seller substantiating Purchaser's
claim for reimbursement hereunder.
8. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF THE PROPERTY; CONDEMNATION
8.1 Damage or Destruction of the Property.
(a) If, between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, the Property is
Materially Damaged or Destroyed (as hereinafter defined), Purchaser
may elect in writing, within five (5) days after receipt of notice by
Purchaser from Seller of such damage or destruction (the "Casualty
Notice Date"), accompanied by information regarding the amount and
payment of insurance, to terminate this Agreement or to purchase all
of the Property without regard to such damage or destruction. If
Purchaser fails to notify Seller of Purchaser's election, Purchaser
will be deemed to have elected not to proceed with the purchase of all
of the Property. In the event that Purchaser purchases all of the
Property, Seller shall have no obligation to repair any such damage or
destruction, nor shall the Purchase Price be adjusted except as
provided in 8.1(b) below. "Materially Damaged or Destroyed" shall mean
damage or destruction the repair or replacement of which either would
not be permitted due to the then effective requirements of any
applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation of any governmental or
quasi-governmental agency having jurisdiction, or, as determined by a
licensed general contractor having at least five (5) years experience
in the construction of commercial office/warehouse buildings, selected
by Seller and reasonably approved by Purchaser, would exceed One
Hundred Fifty Thousand ($150,000) Dollars as to any casualty of a type
against which insurance is maintained (a "Major Insured Casualty") or
would exceed One Hundred Thousand ($100,000) Dollars as to any
casualty against which insurance is not maintained (a "Major Uninsured
Casualty"). As used herein, repair or replacement means such repair or
replacement to the Improvements as may be required to restore the
Improvements to a condition having substantially the same design,
specifications and equipment of the Improvements immediately prior to
the casualty. If,
24
between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, the Property sustains
nonmaterial damage, the parties shall proceed to Closing. If between
the Effective Date and the Closing Date, the Property is Materially
Damaged or Destroyed due to a Major Uninsured Casualty, Seller may
elect in writing, within five (5) days after the Casualty Notice Date,
to terminate this Agreement. If Seller fails to notify Purchaser of
Seller's election, Seller will be deemed to have elected not to
proceed with the sale of all of the Property. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that any damage or destruction results in the
termination of any Lease, the Property shall be deemed to have been
Materially Damaged or Destroyed due to a Major Insured Casualty.
(b) If Purchaser elects or is required to purchase the Property despite
such damage or destruction, Seller shall assign its rights to and
Purchaser shall be entitled to receive any insurance proceeds (with
any accrued interest thereon) at or after Closing (as the same are
available) and Purchaser shall receive a credit toward the Purchase
Price (i) for the insurance deductible relative to Seller's insurance
on the Property with respect to an insured casualty, including a Major
Insured Casualty, or (ii) for the cost of repair not covered by
insurance with respect to an uninsured casualty, including a Major
Uninsured Casualty. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser
to allow Purchaser to collect any available insurance proceeds. Seller
agrees to maintain until the Closing the level of insurance coverage
in effect on the Property as of the Effective Date.
(c) If, as a result of any casualty, any determination, election or
agreement required by the terms of this Section 8.1 is not made by the
scheduled Closing Date, the Closing Date shall be extended for an
appropriate time, not to exceed twenty (20) days, after such
determination, election or agreement.
8.2 Condemnation.
If prior to Closing all or any part of the Property is subject to a
proposed taking by any public authority, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser
in writing of such proposed taking and Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by
notice to Seller within five (5) days after written notice thereof. If Purchaser
so elects, this Agreement shall terminate. If Purchaser does not so elect to
terminate this Agreement, Purchaser shall accept the Property subject to the
taking without a reduction in the Purchase Price and shall receive at Closing an
assignment of all of Seller's rights to any condemnation award to the extent
that such amount does not exceed the Purchase Price plus any legal fees and
expenses actually expended in obtaining such award, with any condemnation award
in excess of such amount to be divided equally between Seller and Purchaser.
Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to allow Purchaser to collect
any such award.
25
9. COMMISSIONS AND EXPENSES
9.1 Payment of the Sale Commission.
Purchaser and Seller represent and warrant to each other that no real
estate broker or agent has been authorized to act on either parties' behalf
except Xxxxxxx Xxxx Company and The Colorado Group, Inc. ("Seller's Agents")
under separate commission agreements between Seller and each of Seller's Agents,
which commissions ("Brokers' Commissions") under said commission agreements
Seller will pay or cause to be paid to Seller's Agents at Closing. Purchaser
hereby indemnifies Seller and holds Seller harmless from and against any and all
demands or claims which now or hereafter may be asserted against Seller for any
brokerage fees, commissions or similar types of compensation which may be
claimed by any broker which was engaged or which claims to have been engaged by
Purchaser and all expenses and costs in handling or defending any such demand or
claim, including reasonable attorneys' fees. Seller hereby indemnifies Purchaser
and holds Purchaser harmless from and against any and all demands or claims
which now or hereafter may be asserted against Purchaser for any brokerage fees,
commissions or similar types of compensation which may be claimed by any broker
which was engaged or which claims to have been engaged by Seller and all
expenses and costs in handling or defending any such demand or claim, including
reasonable attorneys' fees. This provision shall survive (i) any termination of
this Agreement and (ii) the Closing and shall not be merged therein. Seller
shall, as a condition to Purchaser's obligation to acquire the Property under
this Agreement, cause each of Seller's Agents to execute and deliver to
Purchaser a confidentiality agreement in form and content substantially in
accordance with Exhibit O attached hereto.
9.2 Leasing Commissions/Tenant Improvements.
(a) Seller shall pay all leasing commissions or tenant improvement costs
payable under Leases executed prior to the Effective Date except for
commissions and costs payable by reason of any expansion, extension or
renewal of such Leases (to the extent such expansions, extensions or
renewals are pursuant to option rights expressly set forth in such
Leases as of the Effective Date, herein called the "Existing Rights")
occurring on or after the Effective Date, which shall be paid by
Seller and Purchaser as hereinafter provided. A summary of the
business terms of any amendment, renewal or expansion of an existing
Lease (unless such renewal or expansion is pursuant to and in
accordance with the terms of any Existing Rights, in which case Seller
and Purchaser agree that any such renewal or expansion shall be
effective upon the valid exercise by a tenant pursuant to the terms of
any such Existing Rights) or of any new Lease which Seller wishes to
execute between the Effective Date and the Closing Date will be
submitted to Purchaser prior to execution by Seller. Purchaser agrees
to notify Seller in writing within five (5) Business Days after its
receipt thereof of either its approval or disapproval thereof,
including all leasing commissions, tenant improvement and inducement
payments to be incurred in connection therewith. If Purchaser informs
26
Seller within such five (5) Business Day period that Purchaser does
not approve the amendment, renewal or expansion of the existing Lease
or the new Lease (a "New Lease Agreement"), and such notice is given
after Purchaser has delivered the notice to proceed pursuant to
Section 3.5 above, then Seller shall not enter into the proposed New
Lease Agreement. If such notice is given prior to Purchaser's delivery
of the notice to proceed pursuant to Section 3.5 above, Seller may
elect by written notice to the Purchaser prior to the Out Date (i) not
to enter into the proposed New Lease Agreement or (ii) to proceed with
such New Lease Agreement; provided, however, that in the event that
Seller elects to proceed with such New Lease Agreement and the parties
shall thereafter proceed to Closing, all leasing commissions, tenant
improvement costs, inducement payments, attorneys' fees or other fees
payable incident to the initial tenancy under such New Lease Agreement
shall be paid by Seller. In the event Purchaser fails to notify Seller
in writing of its approval or disapproval of any New Lease Agreement
within the five (5) Business Day period set forth above, Purchaser
shall be deemed to have approved such New Lease Agreement. All leasing
commissions and tenant improvement costs, inducement payments,
attorneys' fees and other fees paid or expenses incurred with respect
to any New Lease Agreement (regarding which Seller has advised
Purchaser in the requisite summary of business terms delivered to
Purchaser as required above) approved or deemed approved by Purchaser
as set forth above in this Section 9.2(a) shall be the obligation of
Purchaser and Seller, divided pro rata based upon an allocation
determined by the rental income received by Seller relative to such
New Lease Agreement prior to Closing and the total rental income
projected to be paid during the initial term of such New Lease
Agreement.
(b) To the extent Seller shall be obligated for any leasing commissions,
tenant improvement costs, inducement payments, attorneys' fees or
other fees payable in connection with any Lease or New Lease Agreement
pursuant to Section 9.2(a) above for which actual payment thereof has
not been made by or on behalf of Seller on or before the Closing,
Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all such unpaid
commissions, costs, expenses and fees.
9.3 Lease Expense Reimbursement and Assumption.
Seller shall comply with and perform all of its obligations under the
Leases until Closing. At Closing, Purchaser shall (i) reimburse Seller for all
leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs, inducement payments, attorneys'
fees and other fees paid or expenses incurred by Seller under any New Lease
Agreement made on or after the Effective Date, if any, which has been approved
or deemed approved by Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.2, less the pro rata share
of all such costs and expenses otherwise payable by Seller pursuant to the last
sentence of Section 9.2(a) above and (ii) assume all obligations of the landlord
under Leases which either (a) arise after Closing or (b) are continuing
covenants of the landlord which apply after Closing, if any.
27
9.4 Maintenance of the Property; Property Personnel.
Between Seller's execution of this Agreement and the Closing, Seller shall
maintain the Property in its existing condition and repair, reasonable wear and
tear excepted.
9.5 Service Contracts and Equipment Lease.
Seller shall comply with and perform all of Seller's obligations under the
Service Contracts, including equipment leases, relative to the Property prior to
Closing. Seller shall not, after the date of this Agreement, enter into any
service contract or equipment lease affecting the Property or any amendment
thereof, which shall be an obligation of Purchaser after Closing, or waive,
compromise or settle any rights of Seller under any Service Contract or
equipment lease which shall be assumed by Purchaser upon Closing, or agree to,
or modify, amend, or terminate any Service Contract or equipment lease which
shall be assumed by Purchaser upon Closing, without in each case obtaining
Purchaser's prior written consent thereto. Seller shall terminate at or before
Closing those existing Service Contracts, including equipment leases, that
Seller is contractually entitled to terminate without cost and that Purchaser
designates to Seller, on or before the Out Date, as not to survive Closing.
10. NOTICES

11. MISCELLANEOUS
11.1 Time.
Time is of the essence in the performance of each party's obligations
hereunder.
11.2 Attorneys' Fees.
If any legal action, arbitration or other proceeding is commenced to
enforce or interpret any provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall
be entitled to an award of its attorneys' fees and expenses. The phrase
"prevailing party" shall include a party which receives substantially the relief
desired whether by dismissal, summary judgment, judgment or otherwise. This
provision shall survive (i) any termination of this Agreement and (ii) the
Closing and shall not be merged therein.
11.3 No Waiver.
No waiver by any party of the performance or satisfaction of any covenant
or condition shall be valid unless in writing and shall not be considered to be
a waiver by such party of any other covenant or condition hereunder.
29
11.4 Entire Agreement.
This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties regarding
the Property and supersedes all prior agreements, whether written or oral,
between the parties regarding the same subject. This Agreement may only be
modified in writing.
11.5 Survival.
Except for (i) the representations and indemnity obligations of Purchaser
and Seller under this Agreement, (ii) the post-closing obligations of Purchaser
and Seller under this Agreement and (iii) as otherwise specifically provided in
this Agreement, none of the agreements, warranties and representations contained
herein shall survive Closing.
11.6 Successors.
Subject to Section 11.7, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and to their respective legal representatives, successors
and permitted assigns.
11.7 Assignment.
Purchaser shall be entitled, without Seller's prior consent, to assign
Purchaser's rights in and to this Agreement to an entity controlled by a pension
fund to which Purchaser is an advisor having net assets in excess of $50,000,000
(a "Permitted Assignee"). Seller's written consent shall be required for any
other assignment of Purchaser's rights to a nominee under this Agreement. Any
attempted unpermitted assignment, except with Seller's prior written consent,
shall be ineffective and shall constitute a default under this Agreement.
Purchaser shall remain liable for the obligations of Purchaser under this
Agreement; provided, however, that any assignment of this Agreement to a
Permitted Assignee shall operate to release Purchaser from further liability
under this Agreement, provided, further, that such release shall only be
effective from and after Purchaser's delivery to Seller of such Permitted
Assignee's written assumption of all Purchaser's obligations hereunder.
Purchaser represents, warrants and certifies to Seller that Purchaser has not
assigned, transferred or encumbered or agreed to assign, transfer or encumber,
directly or indirectly, all or any portion of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement. Purchaser shall give written notice of any proposed assignment
at least five (5) Business Days prior to Closing. If there is an assignment
permitted hereunder or if Seller approves such assignment, Seller shall have no
obligation to reissue any estoppels, surveys, or title commitments previously
delivered to Purchaser, nor shall Seller be responsible for any costs or
expenses of any nature associated with such transfer.
11.8 Relationship of the Parties.
The parties acknowledge that neither party is an agent for the other party,
and that neither party shall or can bind or enter into agreements for the other
party.
30
11.9 Governing Law.
This Agreement and the legal relations between the parties hereto shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado.
11.10 Possession; Risk of Loss.
Seller shall deliver to Purchaser possession of the Property on the Closing
Date, subject only to the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under Leases and
Permitted Exceptions. All risk of loss or damage with respect to the Property
shall pass from Seller to Purchaser upon Closing.
11.11 Review by Counsel.
The parties acknowledge that each party and its counsel have reviewed and
approved this Agreement, and the parties hereby agree that the normal rule of
construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or
any amendments or exhibits hereto.
11.12 Confidentiality.
(a) Seller and Purchaser hereby covenant and agree that, at all times
after the date of execution hereof and prior to the Closing, unless
consented to in writing by the other party, no press release or other
public disclosure concerning this transaction shall be made, and each
party agrees to use best efforts to prevent disclosure of this
transaction, other than (i) to directors and officers of the parties,
limited partners, members and/or shareholders of Seller, Purchaser or
Permitted Assignee, and employees, prospective lenders of Purchaser or
Permitted Assignee, attorneys, accountants, agents and affiliates of
the parties who are involved in the ordinary course of business with
this transaction, all of which shall be instructed to comply with the
confidentiality provisions hereof, or (ii) as required by law or in
response to lawful process or subpoena or other valid or enforceable
order of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere herein,
Purchaser hereby acknowledges that all information furnished by Seller
or its agents or representatives to Purchaser or obtained by Purchaser
in the course of Purchaser's investigation of the Property, or in any
way arising from or relating to any and all studies or entries upon
the Property by Purchaser, its agents or representatives, shall be
treated as confidential information and further, that if any such
confidential information is disclosed to unpermitted third parties
prior to the Closing, Seller may suffer damages and irreparable harm.
In connection therewith, Purchaser hereby expressly understands,
acknowledges and agrees (i) that Purchaser will not disclose any of
the contents or information contained in or
31
obtained as a result of any reports or studies made in connection with
Purchaser's investigation of the Property, in any form whatsoever
(including, but not limited to, any oral information received by
Purchaser during the course of Purchaser's inspection of the
Property), to any party prior to the Closing other than (a) the
Seller, Seller's employees, agents or representatives, or Purchaser's
or a Permitted Assignee's agents, employees, representatives,
attorneys, consultants or potential institutional lenders, without the
prior express written consent of Seller (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld) or (b) as required by law or in response to
lawful process or subpoena or other valid and enforceable order of a
court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) that in making any disclosure of
such information as permitted hereunder, Purchaser will advise said
parties of the confidentiality of such information and the potential
of damage to Seller as a result of any disclosure of such information
by said third party; and (iii) that Seller is relying on Purchaser's
covenant not to disclose any of the contents or information contained
in any such reports or investigations to unpermitted third parties
prior to Closing (all of which is deemed to be confidential
information by the provisions of this Section). In the event this
Agreement is terminated, Purchaser agrees to return to Seller all
information, studies, or reports Purchaser or Purchaser's agents have
obtained from Seller or Seller's agents, contractors or
representatives with respect to the Property or the condition of the
Property. In the event of a breach of Purchaser's duty of
confidentiality hereunder, Purchaser shall be liable to Seller for
damages and Seller may pursue all of its remedies afforded it under
this Agreement. This provision shall survive (i) any termination of
this Agreement and (ii) the Closing and shall not be merged therein.
Seller hereby agrees that Seller shall not issue any press release
relative to this Agreement or the sale of the Property to Purchaser
pursuant to the terms and conditions thereof without the prior written
consent of Purchaser. Seller further agrees that Seller shall not
disclose the Purchase Price or the identity of the pension fund
affiliated with any Permitted Assignee without the prior written
consent of Purchaser, not to be unreasonably withheld, other than to
Seller's agents, employees or representatives or to Purchaser or
Purchaser's Permitted Assignees and their respective agents,
representatives, attorneys, consultants and the like, or as required
by law or in response to lawful process or subpoena or other valid and
enforceable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.
11.13 Termination.
Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason by either party,
Purchaser shall have the obligation to return to Seller all Due Diligence
Documents and copies thereof (including the Survey) and any other information or
documentation received by Purchaser from Seller or Seller's agents with respect
to the Property and shall not disclose to any unpermitted third party the
contents thereof. Seller shall not have any obligation to return or permit the
return of any sums due Purchaser upon any termination
32
of this Agreement, including the Deposit, until the Due Diligence Documents and
copies thereof (including the Survey) and such other information or documents
provided to Purchaser by Seller or Seller's agents have been returned to Seller.
Further, to the extent that any return of the Deposit to the Purchaser permitted
hereunder upon a termination of this Agreement is conditioned upon Purchaser not
then being in default hereunder, then, in the event that Purchaser is, or is
alleged to be, in default hereunder, the Escrow Holder shall retain that portion
of the Deposit designated by Seller as being in dispute (and return the balance
to Purchaser) until such default(s) has been finally resolved by Purchaser and
Seller or finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, as provided
for in Section 2 of this Agreement, whereupon any amounts so determined to be
owing to Seller, to and including all of said Deposit, if appropriate, shall be
delivered to Seller on account of amounts owing Seller as a result of such
default(s), with any balance, including all of said Deposit, if appropriate, to
be returned to Purchaser; provided, however, that nothing herein shall affect
Seller's right and entitlement to all of the Deposit as provided in Section 2.1
and in other provisions of this Agreement where Seller shall be entitled to
retain the Deposit as liquidated damages pursuant to Section 12 below.
11.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND
INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THAT EITHER PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN
RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THE PROPERTY, THE CONVEYANCE DOCUMENTS OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS
EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR IN RESPECT OF ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT,
STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN), OR ACTIONS OF EITHER PARTY. THIS PROVISION
IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OF THE PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS TRANSACTION.
PURCHASER'S INITIALS: ______ SELLER'S INITIALS: ______
11.15 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which
will be deemed an original, and the counterparts taken together shall constitute
a single agreement.
11.16 Limitation on Liability. Purchaser expressly agrees that the
obligations and liabilities of Seller under this Agreement and any document
referenced herein shall not constitute personal obligations of the officers,
directors, employees, agents, affiliates, members, representatives, partners,
stockholders or other principals and representatives of Seller. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary, Seller's liability, if any, arising in connection with
this Agreement or with the Property shall, prior to Closing, be limited to the
remedies as set forth in Section 7.3 of this Agreement and, post-Closing, shall
be limited to $500,000 in accordance with Section 6.1 of this Agreement. The
limitations of liability contained in this section shall apply equally and inure
to the benefit of Seller's present and future officers, directors, affiliates,
members, representatives, trustees,
33
partners, shareholders, agents and employees, and their respective heirs,
successors and assigns.
11.17 Partial Invalidity. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the
application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of
such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which
it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each
such term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the
fullest extent permitted by law.
11.18 Construction. Headings at the beginning of each section and
subsection are solely for the convenience of Purchaser and Seller and are not a
part of this Agreement and shall have no effect upon the construction or
interpretation of any part hereof. Whenever required by the context of this
Agreement, the singular shall include the plural and the masculine shall include
the feminine, and vice versa. This Agreement shall not be construed as if it had
been prepared by one of the parties, but rather as if Purchaser and Seller had
prepared the same. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to sections and
subsections are to this Agreement. All Exhibits referred to in this Agreement
are attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. In the event the
stated date for Closing or the date on which Purchaser or Seller is required to
take any action under the terms of this Agreement is not a Business Day, the
action shall be taken on the next succeeding Business Day thereafter.
12. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
IF PURCHASER SHALL BREACH OR DEFAULT IN ANY OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT, SELLER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND RECEIVE THE
AMOUNT OF ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND ($150,000) DOLLARS (WHICH AMOUNT SHALL BE
PAID BY WAY OF RETENTION OF THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT DESCRIBED IN SECTION 2.2
PLUS ANY ACCRUED INTEREST THEREON TO THE EXTENT AVAILABLE) (THE "SPECIFIED SUM")
AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. SELLER AND PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLER'S DAMAGES
WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE, AND THAT THE SPECIFIED SUM IS A REASONABLE
ESTIMATE OF SELLER'S DAMAGES. SELLER AND PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY FURTHER AGREE
AFTER NEGOTIATION THAT THIS SECTION 12 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES LIQUIDATE THE
AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE SELLER, AND SHALL BE SELLER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST
PURCHASER, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY
PURCHASER OF ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS
AGREEMENT. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 12 SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A
LIMITATION ON THE OBLIGATIONS OF PURCHASER UNDER SECTIONS 3.5(a) and (e),
3.6(b), 9.1, 11.2 and 11.12 HEREOF. THIS
34
PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OF THE PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS
TRANSACTION.
PURCHASER'S INITIALS: ______ SELLER'S INITIALS: ______
13. NO RECORDING
The provisions hereof shall not constitute a lien on the Property and this
Agreement shall not be placed or suffered to be placed by Purchaser for
recording with the office of the recorder (clerk) for the county in which the
Property is located. Purchaser hereby appoints Seller as Purchaser's true and
lawful attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, for the purposes of the
execution of such documents and doing such acts as shall be necessary to effect
the discharge of the recording of this Agreement if such recording shall have
been accomplished in violation of this Section.

Seller and Purchaser.
