NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Angeles
Partners X (the "Partnership") have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of Angeles Realty Corporation (the "General Partner"), all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month
periods ended September 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1997. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.
NOTE B - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES
The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the General Partner and its
affiliates for the management and administration of all partnership activities.
The partnership agreement provides for payments to affiliates for services and
for reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the
Partnership. The following amounts were paid or accrued to the General Partner
and affiliates for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 (in
thousands):
1997 1996
Property management fees (included in
operating expenses) $174 $ 170
Reimbursement for services of affiliates,
including $14,000 and $5,000 of construction
services reimbursements in 1997 and 1996,
respectively (included in general and
administrative and operating expenses) 102 104
For the period from January 1, 1996, to August 31, 1997, the Partnership insured
its properties under a master policy through an agency and insurer unaffiliated
with the General Partner. An affiliate of the General Partner acquired, in the
acquisition of a business, certain financial obligations from an insurance
agency which was later acquired by the agent who placed the master policy. The
agent assumed the financial obligations to the affiliate of the General Partner
who received payment on these obligations from the agent. The amount of the
Partnership's insurance premiums that accrued to the benefit of the affiliate of
the General Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations was not significant.
Angeles Mortgage Investment Trust ("AMIT"), a real estate investment trust, has
provided unsecured loans totaling approximately $2,993,000 at September 30,
1997. Concurrent with the sale of Cardinal Woods Apartments on August 15, 1997,
approximately $588,000, its previously outstanding balance owed to AMIT, was
paid. Total interest expense on this financing was $313,000 and $301,000 for the
nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Accrued
interest was approximately $509,000 at September 30, 1997. Two of these loans
totaling $2,500,000 were previously secured by two investment properties;
however, the second mortgages were released in 1992 as part of the terms and
conditions for refinancing the first mortgages. Multifamily riders were executed
between the Partnership and the first mortgage holders for Carriage APX and
Vista APX, stating that any subordinated debt must be non-foreclosable and have
maturity dates not less than 2 years beyond the maturity of the refinanced first
mortgages; the agreement also provided for interest to be paid based on
available cash flow. In June 1996, but effective March 31, 1996, these loans
were modified, adding non-default accrued interest payable to the loan balances
and waiving accrued, but unpaid, default interest and late charges. The modified
$1,404,000 Carriage APX note matures in September 2000 and provides for interest
at 12% on the original $1,200,000 note amount. The modified $1,530,000 Vista
APX note matures in September 2002 and provides for interest at 12.5% on the
original $1,300,000 note amount. The debt restructuring was accounted for as a
modification of terms. The total future cash payments under the restructured
loan exceed the carrying value of the loan as of the date of restructure.
Consequently, interest on the restructured debt is being recorded at an
effective rate of 10.8% for Vista Hills and 10.2% for Carriage Hills, which is
the rate required to equate the present value of the total future cash payments
under the new terms with the carrying amount of the loan at the date of
restructure. As part of the modifications, AMIT was granted a first priority
lien on the Partnership's 99% limited partnership interests in the Vista APX and
Carriage APX lower-tier partnerships which own Vista Hills Apartments and
Carriage Hills Apartments, respectively.
MAE GP Corporation ("MAE GP"), an affiliate of the General Partner, owns
1,675,113 Class B Shares of AMIT. The terms of the Class B shares provide that
they are convertible in whole or in part, into Class A Shares on the basis of 1
Class A Share for every 49 Class B Shares (however, in connection with the
settlement agreement described in the following paragraph, MAE GP has agreed not
to convert the Class B shares so long at AMIT's option is outstanding). These
Class B Shares entitle MAE GP to receive 1% of the distributions of net cash
distributed by AMIT (however, in connection with the settlement agreement
described in the following paragraph, MAE GP has agreed to waive its right to
receive dividends and distributions so long as AMIT's option is outstanding).
These Class B Shares also entitle MAE GP to vote on the same basis as Class A
Shares, providing MAE GP with approximately 39% of the total voting power of
AMIT (unless and until converted to Class A Shares, in which case the percentage
of the vote controlled represented by the shares held by MAE GP would
approximate 1.3% of the vote). Between the date of acquisition of these shares
(November 24, 1992) and March 31, 1995, MAE GP declined to vote these shares.
Since that date, MAE GP voted its shares at the 1995 and 1996 annual meetings in
connection with the election of trustees and other matters. MAE GP has not
exerted and continues to decline to exert any management control over or
participate in the management of AMIT. Subject to the terms of the proxy
described below, MAE GP may choose to vote these shares as it deems appropriate
in the future. In addition, Liquidity Assistance L.L.C., an affiliate of the
General Partner and an affiliate of Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia"),
which provides property management and partnership administration services to
the Partnership, owns 96,800 Class A Shares of AMIT at September 30, 1997. These
Class A Shares represent approximately 2.2% of the total voting power of AMIT.
As part of a settlement of certain disputes with AMIT, MAE GP granted to AMIT an
option to acquire the Class B Shares owned by it. This option can be exercised
at the end of 10 years or when all loans made by AMIT to partnerships affiliated
with MAE GP as of November 9, 1994,(which is the date of execution of a
definitive Settlement Agreement), have been paid in full, but in no event prior
to November 9, 1997. In connection with such settlement, AMIT delivered to MAE
GP cash in the sum of $250,000 at closing (which occurred April 14, 1995), as
payment for the option. If and when the option is exercised, AMIT will be
required to remit to MAE GP an additional $94,000.
Simultaneously with the execution of the option and as part of the settlement,
MAE GP executed an irrevocable proxy in favor of AMIT, the result of which is
MAE GP is permitted to vote the Class B Shares on all matters except those
involving transactions between AMIT and MAE GP affiliated borrowers or the
election of any MAE GP affiliate as an officer or trustee of AMIT. On those
matters, MAE GP is obligated to deliver to the AMIT trustees, in their capacity
as trustees of AMIT, proxies with regard to the Class B Shares instructing such
trustees to vote said Class B Shares in accordance with the vote of the majority
of the Class A Shares voting to be determined without consideration of the votes
of "Excess Class A Shares" (as defined in Section 6.13 of the Declaration of
Trust of AMIT).
On April 3, 1997, Insignia and AMIT entered into a non-binding agreement in
principle contemplating, among other things, a business combination of AMIT and
Insignia Properties Trust, an entity owned 98% by Insignia and its affiliates
("IPT"). On July 18, 1997, IPT, Insignia and MAE GP entered into a definitive
merger agreement pursuant to which (subject to shareholder approval and certain
other conditions, including the receipt by AMIT of a fairness opinion from its
investment bankers) AMIT would be merged with and into IPT, with each Class A
Share and Class B Share being converted into 1.625 and 0.0332 common shares of
IPT, respectively. The foregoing exchange ratios are subject to adjustment to
account for dividends paid by AMIT from January 1, 1997 and dividends paid by
IPT from February 1, 1997. It is anticipated that Insignia (and its affiliates)
and MAE GP (and its affiliates) would own approximately 53.1% and 2.3%,
respectively, of post-merger IPT when this transaction is consummated.
In November 1992, Angeles Acceptance Pool, L.P. ("AAP"), a Delaware limited
partnership, was organized to acquire and hold the obligations evidencing the
working capital loans previously provided to the Partnership by Angeles Capital
Investments, Inc. ("ACII"). Angeles Corporation ("Angeles") is the 99% limited
partner of AAP and Angeles Acceptance Directives, Inc.("AAD"), an affiliate of
the General Partner, was, until April 14, 1995, the 1% general partner of AAP.
On April 14, 1995, as part of a settlement of claims between affiliates of the
General Partner and Angeles, AAD resigned as general partner of AAP and
simultaneously received a 1/2% limited partner interest in AAP. An affiliate of
Angeles now serves as the general partner of AAP.
These working capital loans funded the Partnership's operating deficits in prior
years. Total indebtedness, which is included as a note payable for Vista APX,
was $150,000 at September 30, 1997, with monthly interest accruing at prime plus
two percent. As a result of the sale of Cardinal Woods Apartments on August 15,
1997, $501,000 of the then outstanding debt to AAP was repaid. Principal is to
be paid the earlier of i) the availability of funds, ii) the sale of one or more
properties owned by the Partnership, or iii) November 25, 1997. Upon maturity,
Vista AP X will not have the means with which to satisfy the maturing debt
obligation. Total interest expense for these loans was $39,000 and $43,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
NOTE C - DISPOSITION OF RENTAL PROPERTY
On August 15, 1997, Cardinal Woods Apartments located in Cary, North Carolina,
was sold to an unaffiliated party, for $7,100,000. The Partnership used a
portion of the proceeds from the sale of the property to pay off the debt
encumbering the property. The net proceeds will be used to establish additional
cash reserves for the Partnership. After closing expenses of approximately
$113,000, the net proceeds received by the Partnership were approximately
$1,994,000. For financial statement purposes, the sale resulted in a gain of
approximately $4,831,000. The Partnership also recorded an
extraordinary loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $539,000, as
a result of the payment of prepayment penalties and the write off of the
remaining unamortized loan costs and debt discount.
The following unaudited pro forma information reflects the operations of the
Partnership for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, as if
Cardinal Woods Apartments had been sold January 1, 1996.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The Partnership's remaining investment properties consist of three apartment
complexes. The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the
properties for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996:
Average
Occupancy
Property 1997 1996
Greentree Apartments
Mobile, Alabama 99% 97%
Carriage Hills Apartments
East Lansing, Michigan 95% 94%
Vista Hills Apartments (1)
El Paso, Texas 75% 84%
(1)The General Partner attributes the low occupancy at Vista Hills Apartments
to a high unemployment rate in the El Paso, Texas area with residents
looking for short-term leasing arrangements. As a result, the property has
increased advertising and offered rent concessions to increase occupancy.
On August 15, 1997, Cardinal Woods Apartments located in Cary, North Carolina,
was sold to an unaffiliated party, for $7,100,000. The Partnership used a
portion of the proceeds from the sale of the property to pay off the debt
encumbering the property. The net proceeds will be used to establish additional
cash reserves for the Partnership. After closing expenses of approximately
$113,000, the net proceeds received by the Partnership were approximately
$1,994,000. For financial statement purposes, the sale resulted in a gain of
approximately $4,831,000. The Partnership also recorded an extraordinary loss
on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $539,000, as a result of the
payment of prepayment penalties and the write off of the remaining unamortized
loan costs and debt discount.
The Partnership realized net income of approximately $3,734,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 compared to a net loss of approximately $609,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The Partnership's net income for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 was approximately $4,095,000 compared
to a net loss of approximately $247,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1996. The increase in net income for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1997, as compared to the corresponding periods of 1996 is primarily
attributable to the gain recognized on the sale of Cardinal Woods Apartments on
August 15, 1997, as discussed above, offset partially by the loss on early
extinguishment of debt. The net loss before the gain on sale of investment
property and extraordinary item decreased for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1997 due to a decrease in total expenses partially offset by a
decrease in rental income. Rental income decreased primarily due to the sale of
Cardinal Woods along with a decrease in occupancy at Vista Hills, despite
increases in rental rates and average occupancy at Greentree and Carriage Hills.
Total expenses decreased also due to the sale of Cardinal Woods Apartments along
with an overall decrease in maintenance expense. Included in maintenance expense
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 is approximately $46,000 for major
repairs and renovations comprised primarily of tennis court repairs, exterior
building repairs, parking lot repairs and landscaping. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1996, approximately $124,000 of major repairs and
renovations comprised primarily of exterior building repairs and landscaping was
included in maintenance expense. In addition, general and administrative
expenses decreased due to a decrease in professional fees and expense
reimbursements.
As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the General Partner
monitors the rental market environment of each of its investment properties to
assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy
levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expense. As part of
this plan, the General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the
burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and
maintaining a high overall occupancy level. However, due to changing market
conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions and rental
reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the
General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.
At September 30, 1997 the Partnership held unrestricted cash and cash
equivalents of approximately $1,284,000 compared to approximately $420,000 at
September 30, 1996. Net cash used in operating activities increased primarily
due to the payment of a $581,000 payable to an affiliate for reimbursement of
services, which had been accruing for several years. Net cash provided by
investing activities increased primarily due to the proceeds received from the
sale of Cardinal Wood Apartments during the nine months ended September 30,
1997. Net cash used in financing activities increased due to the repayment of
notes payable and prepayment penalties incurred as a result of the sale of
Cardinal Woods.
The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital
expenditures required at the property to adequately maintain the physical assets
and other operating needs of the Partnership. In June 1996, but effective March
31, 1996, two of the Partnership's AMIT notes were modified. Previously accrued
interest of $493,000 was added to the principal balance of existing debt. The
debt restructuring was accounted for as a modification of terms. The total
future cash payments under the restructured loan exceed the carrying value of
the loan as of the date of restructure. Consequently, interest on the
restructured debt is being recorded at an effective rate of 10.8% for Vista
Hills and 10.2% for Carriage Hills, which is the rate required to equate the
present value of the total future cash payments under the new terms with the
carrying amount of the loan at the date of restructure. As a result of the sale
of Cardinal Woods Apartments, approximately $588,000 of the AMIT debt was paid
off. The outstanding indebtedness of $13,713,000 (net of discount) has maturity
dates ranging from November 1997 to October 2003, at which time approximately
$13,271,000 of balloon payments are due. As a result of the sale of Cardinal
Woods Apartments, approximately $501,000 of working capital loans payable to
Angeles Acceptance Pool, L.P. ("AAP") were paid off. The remaining debt to AAP
of $150,000, which is due from Vista AP X, matures in November 1997. Upon
maturity, Vista AP X will not have the means with which to satisfy the maturing
debt obligation. The note payable secured by Carriage Hills matures September
1, 1998. Currently, the General Partner is attempting to refinance this debt.
Net cash proceeds from the sale of Cardinal Woods will be used to establish
additional cash reserves for the Partnership. Future cash distributions will
depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, refinancings,
property sales and the availability of cash reserves. During the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, no cash distributions were paid to the
Limited Partners.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM. 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On January 20, 1995 an employee at Vista Hills Apartments ("Plaintiff")
allegedly sustained personal injuries during the ordinary course of business.
The Plaintiff alleges that his employment was thereafter terminated in
retaliation for his having filed a workers compensation claim. Plaintiff seeks
compensatory and punitive damages. The General Partner cannot predict the
outcome of this proceeding or the range of settlement for the Plaintiff, if
settled in favor of Plaintiff; however, the General Partner believes that this
claim is without merit and intends to vigorously defend it.
The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation that
is not of a routine nature. The General Partner believes that all such
other pending or outstanding litigation will be resolved without a material
adverse effect upon the business, financial condition or operations of the
Partnership.

to other provisions of this Contract, shall be referred to as the "Permitted
Exceptions").
SECTION 4.4 OBJECTIONS TO STATUS OF TITLE AND SURVEY. Subject to the
terms hereof, Seller shall be obligated to deliver marketable title to
Purchaser. If Purchaser objects to any matter affecting title to the Property

Purchaser whether or not Seller will cure, prior to Closing, any such title
objection. If Seller notifies Purchaser that it elects not to cure any such
objection, then Purchaser may, at its option exercisable in writing within five
(5) days following the date of receipt by Purchaser of written notice from
Seller stating that Seller is unable or unwilling to cure such objections,
either (a) accept such title as Seller can deliver, in which case all exceptions
to title which Seller has stated it will not cure shall be deemed to be
Permitted Exceptions, or (b) terminate this Contract by notice in writing to
Seller in which event, subject to the provisions of SECTION 10.1 of this
Contract, Escrow Agent shall Return the Earnest Money Deposit. If Purchaser
fails to notify Seller, within such five (5) day period, that Purchaser has
elected to proceed under either subpart (a) or (b) of the immediately preceding

subpart (a), and this Contract shall remain in full force and effect.
If Seller notifies Purchaser that it elects to cure any such objections but
is unable to cure such objections by Closing or if Seller fails to notify
Purchaser of its intentions with respect to such objections and fails to cure
such objections by Closing, then Purchaser may, at its option, either (x) accept
such title as Seller can deliver in which case the parties shall proceed with
Closing and all exceptions to title which are not removed shall be deemed to be
Permitted Exceptions, or (y) terminate this Contract by notice in writing to
Seller at Closing, in which event Escrow Agent shall Return the Earnest Money
Deposit.
"Return the Earnest Money Deposit" shall mean Escrow Agent shall return the
Earnest Money to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further rights,
duties or obligations hereunder except as otherwise provided in SECTIONS 5.1.5
and 11.1 hereof.

persons or damage to property caused by Purchaser or its agents on the
Property. The agreements contained in this SECTION 5.1.5 shall survive the
Closing forever (subject to any applicable statutes of limitation) and
shall not be merged therein and shall also survive any termination of this
Contract.

the attorneys' fees and costs and expenses incurred in connection with

Contract, shall be borne and paid exclusively by the party incurring such

SECTION 8.4 PRORATIONS.
8.4.1 All normal and customarily proratable items, including,
without limitation, rents, operating expenses and other expenses and fees,
and payments relating to any agreements affecting the Property which
survive the Closing, shall be prorated as of the Closing Date, Seller being
charged and credited for all of same attributable to the period up to, and
including, the day prior to the Closing Date (and credited for any amounts
paid by Seller attributable to the period thereafter) and Purchaser being
responsible for, and credited or charged, as the case may be, for all of
same attributable to the period on and after the Closing Date.
8.4.2 All unapplied Deposits under Tenant Leases in the possession
of Seller, if any, shall be transferred by Seller to Purchaser at the
Closing. There shall be no application of security deposits to unpaid rent
unless the tenant has vacated without paying Rent.
8.4.3 Any real estate ad valorem or similar taxes for the
Property, or any installment of assessments payable in installments which
installment is payable in the year of Closing occurs and those which are
attributable to the calendar year in which Closing occurs (due and payable
in a succeeding calendar year), shall be prorated to the date of Closing,
based upon actual days involved. In connection with the proration of real
property taxes or installments of assessments, such proration shall be
based upon the assessed valuation and tax rate figures for the year in
which the Closing occurs to the extent the same are available; provided, if
actual figures (whether for the assessed value of the Property or for the
tax rate) for the year of Closing are not available at the Closing Date,
then the proration shall be based upon the amounts from the preceding year.
In such event, the parties shall reprorate such amounts within thirty (30)
days after the actual bills are received by Purchaser. The proration shall
be final and unadjustable except as provided in the following paragraph. If
the Property has been assessed for property tax purposes at such rates as
would result in "roll back" taxes upon the changes in land usage or
ownership of the Property, then Seller shall pay all such taxes and hereby
indemnifies, holds harmless and agrees to defend Purchaser from and against
any and all causes of action, costs, expenses, fees liens, fines, damages,
claims, losses, expenses, fines and liabilities for or relating to such
taxes.
8.4.4 Prorations should be governed by the following additional
provisions:
(A) Utilities, if any, payable by Seller, shall be prorated.
Seller shall obtain meter readings on the Closing Date or midnight of
the day immediately preceding the Closing Date ("Proration Date"), and
if such readings are obtained, there shall be no proration of such
items and Seller shall pay the bills therefor for the period through
the Proration Date, and Purchaser shall pay the bills therefor for the
period subsequent to the Proration Date as and when rendered. If
Seller is unable to obtain meter readings as of the Proration Date,
utilities shall be prorated at the Proration Date based upon the most
recent utility bills, adjusted for seasonality (such adjustment being
reasonably acceptable to both parties), and reprorated upon issuance
of the actual bills. In addition, if there are any utility charges
submetered to Tenants and payable by them directly to Seller, Seller
shall use reasonable efforts to obtain readings thereof at the Closing
Date, and such items shall be prorated in mode and manner as with
respect to rents. Provided, however, Seller may have utility service
at the Property terminated in accordance with SECTION 8.5.
(B) Prepaid and unpaid expenses and charges respecting utilities
and all other expenses incurred in the operation of the Property shall
be prorated at and as of the Proration Date. However, fees paid by
Seller with respect to certificates, permits, licenses, franchises,
authorizations and approvals assigned by Seller to Purchaser at the
Closing shall not be prorated, but shall be paid for and assumed
entirely by Seller.
(C) Income from coin telephones, vending and other coin operated
machines, or from the use of other facilities forming a part of, or
located upon, the Property shall be apportioned. If they are to be
received after the Proration Date, they shall be apportioned when the
income is received. In the case of any charges payable by Tenants to
Seller applicable to periods of time ending before the Closing Date
but to become payable thereafter when bills are rendered (such as
service charges, supply charges and utility charges), Seller shall
after settlement prepare and promptly deliver to Purchaser the
information necessary to prepare the bills to the tenants. Seller
warrants and represents that such information will be true, complete
and correct. All such charges shall be paid to Purchaser and adjusted
in the same manner as provided herein.
(D) Except as otherwise provided herein, prorations shall be
made as of the end of business on the day prior to the Closing Date.
Unapplied security deposited in the possession or control of Seller
shall be transferred at the Closing, together with an explanation of
any missing security deposits.
(E) If any of the items subject to proration under the foregoing
provisions of this SECTION 8.4 cannot be prorated at the Closing
because of the unavailability of the information necessary to compute
such proration, or if any errors or omissions in computing prorations
at the Closing are discovered subsequent to the Closing, then such
item shall be reapportioned and such errors and omissions corrected as
soon as practicable after the Closing Date and the proper party
reimbursed, which obligation shall survive the Closing for a period of
one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date as hereinafter
provided. Neither party hereto shall have the right to require a
recomputation of a Closing proration or a correction of an error or
omission in a Closing proration unless within the aforestated one
hundred twenty (120) day period one of the parties hereto (i) has
obtained the previously unavailable information or has discovered the
error or omission, and (ii) has given notice thereof to the other
party together with a copy of its good faith recomputation of the
proration and copies of all substantiating information used in such
recomputation. The failure of a party to obtain any previously
unavailable information or discover an error or omission with respect
to an item subject to proration hereunder and to give notice thereof
as provided above within one hundred twenty (120) days after the
Closing Date shall be deemed a waiver of its right to cause a
recomputation or a correction of an error or omission with respect to
such item after the Closing Date.
The provisions of this SECTION 8.4 shall survive the Closing and the
termination of this Contract forever.
SECTION 8.5 POSSESSION AND CLOSING. Possession of the Property shall be
delivered to Purchaser by Seller at the Closing, subject to the Permitted
Exceptions and the rights of the Tenants. Purchaser shall make its own
arrangements for the provision of public utilities to the Property and Seller
shall terminate its Contracts with such utility companies that provide services
to the Property as of the end of business on the Closing Date.
SECTION 8.6 DELINQUENT RENT.
(A) APPLICATION OF DELINQUENT RENT. If on the Closing Date any
Tenant is in arrears in the payment of any rent under any Tenant Lease (the
"Delinquent Rent") payable by it, any Delinquent Rent received by Purchaser
and Seller from such Tenant after the Closing shall be applied to amounts
due and payable by such Tenant during the following periods in the
following order of priority: (A) first, to the period of time after the
Closing Date, and (B) second, to the period of time before the Closing
Date. Provided, if Seller initiates legal action to collect Delinquent
Rent for the period prior to Closing, Seller shall be entitled to retain
any Delinquent Rent collected as a result of such legal action. The
provisions of this SECTION 8.6(A) shall survive the Closing and the
termination of this Contract forever.
(B) COLLECTION OF DELINQUENT RENT. Purchaser shall have no obligation
to collect past due rentals and other amounts from Tenants after the
Proration Date. Seller retains its rights in and to such past due rentals,
but shall not disturb or otherwise interfere with any Tenant in its
occupancy and use and enjoyment of its demised premises.
ARTICLE IX

may elect to terminate this Contract by written notice thereof to Seller

taking or deed in lieu or institution of such condemnation proceeding
(which notice Seller shall deliver to Purchaser within ten (10) days of
Seller's receipt thereof). If Purchaser does not terminate this Contract

Purchaser at the Closing any proceeds actually received by Seller
attributable to the Property from such condemnation, eminent domain

proceeds, and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price.
(B) For purposes of SECTION 9.1(A), "Significant Portion" of the
Property shall be deemed to be any portion of the Property with either a
fair market value or replacement cost in an amount equal to or greater than
$250,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in SECTION
9.1(A), if Purchaser has not timely elected to terminate in accordance with
SECTION 9.1(A), and if the proceeds payable with respect to the Property as
a result of condemnation exceed the Purchase Price for the Property, then
the portion of such proceeds in excess of the Purchase Price shall be paid
to Purchaser at the Closing. The foregoing provision shall survive the
Closing and the termination of this Contract forever.
(C) If less than a Significant Portion of the Property is condemned,
taken by eminent domain, conveyed by deed in lieu thereof or is the subject
of a condemnation proceeding, then Purchaser shall not have the right to
terminate this Contract, but Seller shall deliver to Purchaser at Closing
any proceeds actually received by Seller attributable to the Property from
such condemnation or eminent domain proceeding or deed in lieu thereof, and
assign its interest in and to such proceeds to Purchaser, and there shall
be no reduction of the Purchase Price.

of the Property shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty
prior to Closing, then Purchaser may terminate this Contract by written
notice thereof to Seller within ten (10) days after Seller notifies
Purchaser of the casualty (which notice Seller shall deliver to Purchaser
within ten (10) days of Seller's receipt thereof). If Purchaser does not
terminate this Contract as aforesaid, then both parties shall proceed to
close the transaction contemplated herein pursuant to the terms hereof, in
which event Seller shall, except as limited in SECTION 9.2(B) hereof,
deliver to Purchaser at the Closing any insurance proceeds actually
received by Seller attributable to the Property from such casualty (except
for proceeds previously used to repair the Property) and assign to
Purchaser all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to any claims
which Seller may have under the insurance policies covering the Property,
and Purchaser shall receive a proration credit at Closing in the aggregate
amount of any deductible and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase
Price. If less than a Substantial Portion of the Property shall be damaged
or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Closing, then the parties
shall proceed in accordance with the second sentence in this SECTION
9.2(A).
(B) For the purposes of SECTION 9.2(A), a "Substantial Portion@ of
the Property shall be deemed to be any portion of the Property with either
a fair market value or replacement cost in an amount equal to or greater
than $250,000. Notwithstanding anything in SECTION 9.2(A) to the contrary,
if Purchaser has not timely elected to terminate in accordance with SECTION
9.2(A), and if the proceeds payable with respect to the Property as a
result of casualty exceed the Purchase Price for the Property, then the
portion of such proceeds in excess of the Purchase Price shall be paid to
