collected and received by Seller. Subsequent to the Closing, if any such
rents and other income are actually collected and received by Purchaser,
all such amounts shall first be applied to post-closing rents due to
Purchaser which are past due and the balance shall be immediately paid by
Purchaser to Seller. Purchaser shall make a good faith effort and attempt
for a period not to extend beyond four (4) months after the Closing Date to
collect any such rents and other amounts and other income not apportioned
at the Closing for the benefit of Seller, however, Purchaser shall not be
required to expend any funds or institute any litigation in its collection
efforts. Nothing in this paragraph shall restrict Seller's right to collect
delinquent rents directly from a tenant by any legal means.
(b) Taxes will be prorated on an accrual basis. If the Closing shall
occur before the tax rate or the assessed valuation of the Property is
fixed for the then current year, the apportionment of taxes shall be upon
the basis of the tax rate for the preceding year applied to the latest
assessed valuation. Subsequent to the Closing, when the tax rate and the
assessed valuation of the Property is fixed for the year in which the
Closing occurs, the parties agree to adjust the proration of taxes and, if
necessary, to refund or repay such sums as shall be necessary to effect
such adjustment. If the Property is not assessed as a separate parcel for
tax or assessment purposes, then such taxes and assessments attributable to
the Property shall be determined by Purchaser and Seller. In the event the
Property has been assessed for property tax purposes at such rates as could
result in "roll-back" taxes upon changes in land usage or ownership of the
Property, Seller agrees to pay all such taxes.
(c) If the Closing shall occur before the actual amount of utilities
and all other operating expenses with respect to the Property for the month
in which the Closing occurs are determined, the apportionment of such
utilities and other operating expenses shall be upon the basis of an
estimate by Seller of such utilities and other operating expenses for such
month. Subsequent to the Closing, when the actual amount of such utilities
and other operating expenses with respect to the Property for the month in
which the Closing occurs are determined, the parties agree to adjust the
proration of such utilities and other operating expenses and, if necessary,
to refund or repay such sums as shall be necessary to effect such
adjustment.
(d) Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that certain additional
rents constituting reimbursement for percentage rent payments, common area
maintenance charges, property taxes and assessments and the like
(collectively, "Additional-Rents") which Seller has heretofore advanced
have not yet been billed to the Tenants by Seller (collectively, "Unbilled
Additional Rents"). Purchaser and Seller agree that, with respect
11
<PAGE>
to the Unbilled Additional Rents, Seller shall provide Purchaser following
the Closing with the data reasonably necessary for Purchaser to provide
bills to the Tenants for the Unbilled Additional Rents. In the event that
any Tenant shall, following the Closing, seek to audit or to challenge
Seller's calculation of rent or Additional Rent actually paid by such
Tenant during the period of Seller's ownership of the Property, upon the
agreement of the Tenant and Seller, or if no such agreement is reached,
upon the entering of a final, non-appealable order (or, if applicable
pursuant to the applicable lease, an arbitration or other dispute
resolution award), Seller shall reimburse such Tenant to, the extent of any
over-payment of rent or Additional Rent actually received by Seller,
together with any applicable interest or other costs pursuant to a
settlement, court order or other award, and Purchaser shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to collect the amount of any under-payment
of rent or Additional Rent from such Tenant, together with any applicable
interest or other costs pursuant to a settlement, court order or other
award for the benefit of Seller.
The agreements of Seller and Purchaser set forth in this Section 6.3 shall
survive the Closing.
6.4 Closing Costs. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Seller
-------------
shall pay, on the Closing Date, the title insurance premium for the Owner's

RISK OF LOSS
------------
7.1 Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, action is initiated to take
------------
any of the Property by eminent domain proceedings or by deed in lieu thereof,
Purchaser may either at or prior to Closing (a) terminate this Agreement, or (b)
consummate the Closing, in which latter event all of Seller's assignable right,
title and interest in and to the award of the condemning authority shall be
assigned to Purchaser at the Closing and there shall be no reduction in the

--------
Agreement, Seller assumes all risks and liability for damage to or injury
occurring to the Property by fire, storm, accident, or any other casualty or
cause until the Closing has been consummated. If the Shopping Center, or any
part thereof, suffers any damage in excess of $ 100,000.00 prior to the Closing
from fire or other casualty, which Seller, at its sole option, does not elect to
repair, Purchaser may either at or prior to Closing (a) terminate this
Agreement, or (b) consummate the Closing, in which latter event all of Seller's
right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any insurance covering such
damage (less an amount equal to any expenses and costs incurred by Seller to
repair or restore the Shopping Center and any portion of such proceeds paid or
to be paid on account of the loss of rents or other income from the Shopping

Shopping Center, or any part thereof, suffers any damage less than $ 100,000.00
prior to the Closing, Purchaser agrees that it will consummate the Closing and
accept the assignment of the proceeds of any insurance covering such damage plus
an amount equal to Seller's deductible under its insurance policy and there
shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price.
8.
DEFAULT
-------
8.1 Breach by Seller. Except as Purchaser's remedies may otherwise be
----------------
expressly limited by the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation,
the terms of Section 4.4):
(a) In the event that Seller shall fail to consummate this Agreement
for any reason, except Purchaser's default or a termination of this
Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the
provisions hereof, Purchaser, as its sole and exclusive remedy may either
(a) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money or
(b) pursue the remedy of specific performance of Seller's obligations under
this Agreement: provided, however, that (i) Purchaser shall only be
entitled to such remedy if (A) any such suit for specific performance is
filed within sixty (60) days after
14
<PAGE>
Purchaser becomes aware of the default by Seller, (B) Purchaser is not in
default under this Agreement, (C) Purchaser has tendered five percent (5%)
of the Purchase Price to the Escrow Agent, in immediately available funds
and the Escrow Agent has acknowledged receipt of same, in writing, to
Seller, and (D) Purchaser has furnished ten (10) days prior written notice
to Seller of its intent and election to seek specific enforcement of this
Agreement; and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, Seller shall not be obligated to expend any sums to cure any
defaults under this Agreement and if Purchaser seeks specific performance
under this Agreement, Purchaser agrees to accept the Property in its "WHERE
IS, AS IS" condition. Purchaser hereby agrees that prior to its exercise of
any rights or remedies as a result of any defaults by Seller, Purchaser
will first deliver written notice of said default to Seller and give Seller
ten (10) days thereafter in which to cure said default, if Seller so
elects. In no event whatsoever shall Purchaser file any instrument of
record against title to the Property; provided, however, Purchaser may file
a lis pendens of this Agreement simultaneously with its filing of a suit
for specific performance pursuant to this Section 8. 1. Notwithstanding any
of the foregoing to the contrary, in no event whatsoever, shall Purchaser
have the right to seek money damages of any kind as a result of any default
by Seller under any of the terms of this Agreement. In no event shall
Seller be liable to Purchaser for any punitive, speculative or
consequential damages.
8.2 Breach by Purchaser. (a) If Purchaser fails to comply with Section 6
-------------------
of this Agreement, Seller may terminate this Agreement and thereupon shall be
entitled to the Earnest Money as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) and
as Seller's sole remedy and relief hereunder (except for the Surviving
Obligations). Seller and Purchaser have made this provision for liquidated
damages because it would be difficult to calculate, on the date hereof, the
amount of actual damages for such breach, and Seller and Purchaser agree that
these sums represent reasonable compensation to Seller for such breach, (b)
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.2(a) above, (i) in the event of any
default by Purchaser under this Agreement other than as described in Section
8.2(a) (including without limitation any breach by the Purchaser of the negative
covenant, set forth in Section 8.1 above, not to file any instrument(s) against
title to the Property excepting the lis pendens described in -Section 8.1
above). Seller shall have any and all rights and remedies available at law or in
equity by reason of such default and (ii) the provisions of this Section 8.2
shall not limit or affect any of Purchaser's indemnities as provided in other
Sections of this Agreement.
9.
FUTURE OPERATIONS
-----------------
9.1 Future Operations.
-----------------
(a) From the date of this Agreement until the Closing or earlier
termination of this Agreement:
(i) Seller will keep and maintain the Property in substantially
its condition as of the date of this Agreement;
15
<PAGE>
(ii) Seller will perform all Seller's obligations under the
Contracts and Leases. Seller will not, without the prior written
consent of Purchaser, modify, enter into, or renew any Contract or
Lease which cannot be cancelled upon thirty (30) days prior written
notice.
(iii) Seller will continue to manage the Property in a prudent
manner consistent with Seller's past practices.
(b) From the Effective Date until the Closing or earlier termination
of this Agreement, Seller will not lease any space in the Improvements
except upon the prior written approval of Purchaser (such approval not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided however, this limitation
upon Seller shall not apply with respect to lease renewals and lease
extensions pursuant to rights granted under an existing lease. In addition,
Seller shall not apply security deposits unless the corresponding tenant is
out of the demised premises by the Closing Date. All costs and expenses
(the "New Lease Expenses") incurred and paid by Seller under any new lease
entered into after the Effective Date (each, a "New Lease") shall be paid
by Purchaser in accordance with Section 6.6(c) hereof. Said costs and
expenses shall include, but not be limited to, costs incurred and paid by
Seller for tenant improvements, leasing commissions, capital improvements,
and reasonable attorney's fees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the New Lease Expenses for each New Lease allocable to
and payable by Seller shall be determined by multiplying the amount of such
New Lease Expenses by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of days contained in that portion, if any, of the term of such New
Lease commencing on the date on which the tenant thereunder shall have
commenced to pay fixed rent (the "Rent Commencement Date") and expiring on
the date immediately preceding the Closing Pate, and the denominator of
which shall be the total number of days contained in the period commencing
on the Rent Commencement Date and expiring on the date of the scheduled
expiration of the term of such New Lease, and the remaining balance of the
New Lease Expenses for each New Lease shall be allocable to and payable by
Purchaser. The Rent Commencement Date under a renewal, extension, expansion
or modification of a Lease shall be deemed to be (A) in the case of a
renewal or extension (whether effective prior to or after the Closing, or
in the form of an option exercisable in the future), the first date during
such renewal or extension period after the originally scheduled expiration
of the term of such Lease on which the tenant under such Lease commences to
pay fixed rent, (B) in the case of an expansion (whether effective prior to
or after the Closing, or in the form of an option exercisable in the
future), the date on which the tenant under such Lease commences to pay
fixed rent for the additional space, and (C) in the case of a modification
not also involving a renewal, extension or expansion of such Lease, the
effective date of such modification agreement. At the Closing, Purchaser
shall reimburse Seller for all New Lease Expenses theretofore paid by
Seller, if any, in excess of the portion of the New Lease Expenses
allocated to Seller pursuant to the provisions of the preceding sentence.
