ITEM 2 - Disposition of Assets
------------------------------

Northeast Plaza Shopping Center- Sarasota, Florida

Disposition Date - October 12, 2000

      On  October  12,  2000,   PaineWebber   Income  Properties  Three  Limited
Partnership ("the  Partnership") sold the wholly-owned  Northeast Plaza Shopping
Center to an unrelated  third party for a gross sale price of $3,712,500.  After
deducting closing costs of $32,000, net property proration adjustments totalling
$126,000 and the  prepayment of the first  mortgage debt secured by the property
of  approximately  $758,000,  the  Partnership  received  net sale  proceeds  of
approximately $2,796,000. The Partnership was entitled to 100% of these net sale
proceeds  because the master  lease  agreement  which had covered the  Northeast
Plaza  property  was  terminated  prior to the sale.  As of August 1, 2000,  the
master lease agreement was terminated in return for the Partnership's release of
the master lessee from any liability regarding the known environmental issues at
the property. As discussed further in the Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Partnership has been focusing on a
sale  of  the  Northeast  Plaza  Shopping  Center,  its  remaining  real  estate
investment, and a liquidation of the Partnership. With the sale of the Northeast
Plaza  property  completed,  the  Partnership  is currently  proceeding  with an
orderly  liquidation.   Management  currently  expects  to  make  a  Liquidating
Distribution,  which  will  include  the net  proceeds  of the  Northeast  Plaza
transaction,  along with the remaining Partnership reserves after the payment of
all  liquidation-related  expenses, on November 15, 2000. The formal liquidation
of the Partnership  would be completed shortly  thereafter.  The total amount of
the Final  Distribution  is currently  estimated to be at least $90 per original
$1,000 investment.

      In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, sale or refinancing proceeds
are to be  distributed  first,  100% to the Limited  Partners  until the Limited
Partners have received their  original  capital  contributions  and a cumulative
annual  return  of  7%  based  upon  a  Limited   Partner's   Adjusted   Capital
Contributions,  as  defined in the  Partnership  Agreement.  Then a real  estate
brokerage commission is payable to the Partnership's Adviser. In connection with
the sale of each  property,  the  Adviser is  entitled  to receive a real estate
brokerage commission in an amount equal to 0.75% of the selling prices of all of
the  properties  in the  portfolio.  Pursuant  to this  provision,  a  total  of
approximately  $511,000  will be paid to the Adviser as a real estate  brokerage
commission. Any remaining sale or refinancing proceeds are to be distributed 85%
to the Limited  Partners  and 15% to the General  Partner.  Including  the Final
Liquidating  Distribution discussed further above, Limited Partners who acquired
their Units during the original offering period will have received a full return
of their original capital  contributions,  their cumulative  preferred return of
7%, as defined in the Partnership  Agreement,  and their  proportionate share of
approximately  $2 million which represents an 85% share in the remaining sale or
refinancing  proceeds  after the  payment  of the  brokerage  commission  to the
Adviser.  The General  Partner of the Partnership is expected to receive a total
of approximately $350,000 as their 15% residual share noted above.

      As discussed  further in the  Partnership's  Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended June 30, 2000,  during the quarter ended June 30, 1999 the
Partnership was notified by the Northeast Plaza Shopping Center master-lessee of
the presence of groundwater  contamination at the Shopping Center which appeared
to have been caused by the operation of dry cleaning equipment at the Center. On
December 13, 1999, the  Partnership  submitted a Site  Assessment  Report to the
state  regulatory  authority that  confirmed the presence of the  contamination,
described the location of elevated contaminant  concentrations,  and outlined an
initial analysis of remedial  alternatives based on preliminary reports obtained
from the master-lessee and work performed by the Partnership's own environmental
consultants.  On April 6, 2000, the  Partnership  submitted a Supplemental  Site
Assessment  Report further defining the nature and extent of the  contamination.
In early  May  2000,  the  Partnership's  environmental  consultant  prepared  a
Remedial  Action Plan and submitted the Plan to the state  regulatory  authority
for review and approval.  During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000, the Plan was
effectively  approved by the state regulatory authority subject to the execution
of a voluntary cleanup agreement with the state. The Partnership's environmental
consultant  had proposed to implement the Plan at a cost of  approximately  $1.2
million.

      However, while awaiting the approval of the Plan, the Partnership had also
initiated  efforts to market and sell the Northeast Plaza property on terms that
would allocate to the purchaser  responsibility  for pre-existing  environmental
conditions.  In July 2000, the  Partnership  distributed  four sales packages to
prospective  purchasers  who were targeted as potential  buyers of property with
pre-existing  environmental conditions. As a result of that effort, three offers
were received.  After  evaluating the offers and the strength of the prospective
purchasers, the Partnership selected an offer. A purchase and sale agreement was
subsequently  negotiated  and  signed on August 31,  2000 with this  prospective
third-party  buyer.  After  completing its due diligence work in September 2000,
the prospective buyer made two non-refundable  deposits totalling $200,000.  The
transaction  closed as described  above on October 12, 2000. In accordance  with
the  purchase  and  sale  agreement,   all   liabilities   associated  with  the
pre-existing  environmental  conditions at the property were  transferred to the
buyer at the time of the sale, and the buyer agreed to indemnify the Partnership
against claims arising from known environmental  problems. In addition,  for the
purpose of  addressing  risks  relating to cleanup cost overruns and any unknown
environmental  conditions,  the buyer  purchased  environmental  insurance under
which the  Partnership is included as an additional  insured.  As a result,  the
Partnership is free to proceed with its planned  liquidation which it expects to
complete by November 30, 2000.

paid that  portion  of such tax  refunds or  proceeds  as is  applicable  to the
portion of the  applicable  tax period from and after the Closing Date.  Neither
Seller nor Buyer shall settle any tax protests or proceedings in which taxes for
the tax period for which the other party is  responsible  are being  adjudicated
without the  consent of such  party,  which  consent  shall not be  unreasonably
withheld,  conditioned or delayed. After the Closing, Buyer shall be responsible
for and control any tax protests or  proceedings  for any period for which taxes
are adjusted  between the parties under this Agreement and for any later period.
Buyer and Seller  shall  cooperate  in pursuit  of any such  proceedings  and in
responding to reasonable  requests of the other for  information  concerning the
status of and otherwise relating to such proceedings;  provided,  however,  that
neither  party shall be  obligated  to incur any  out-of-pocket  fees,  costs or
expenses in responding to the requests of the other.

      3.4  Contract  Proration.   To  the  extent  Property  Contracts  are  not
terminated  pursuant  to  Section  4.3,  prepaid or past due  amounts  under any
Property  Contracts which are assigned to Buyer at Closing shall be prorated and
adjusted as of the Closing Date.

      3.5 Utility Proration. To the extent reasonably feasible, the Seller shall
cause all meters for  electricity,  gas,  water,  sewer or other public  utility
usage at the Property to be read as of the day immediately preceding the Closing
Date, and the Seller shall pay all charges for such utilities which have accrued
on or prior to the Closing Date;  provided,  however,  that if and to the extent
such charges are paid  directly by tenants,  no such reading or payment shall be
required. If the utility companies are unable or refuse to read meters for which
payment by the Seller is required,  all charges for such utilities to the extent
unpaid  shall be prorated  and adjusted as of the Closing Date based on the most
recent bills therefor and no further  adjustment shall be made. The Seller shall
provide  notice to the Buyer  within five (5) days of the Closing  Date  setting
forth (i) whether  utility meters will be read as of the Closing Date and (ii) a
copy of the most recent bill for any  utility  charges  which are to be prorated
and adjusted as of the Closing Date.

      3.6 Income and Expense  Proration.  Collected  rents for the then  current
period;  security  deposits which have not been previously  applied by Seller in
accordance with the terms of any Leases;  prepaid rentals;  collected or prepaid
common area  maintenance  charges;  collected  or prepaid  promotional  charges;
collected or prepaid service charges;  collected or prepaid tax charges, and all
other collected or prepaid incidental expenses and charges paid by tenants shall
be apportioned  and full value shall be adjusted as of the Closing Date, and the
net amount thereof, if in favor of Seller, shall be added to the Purchase Price,
or if in favor of  Buyer,  shall  be  deducted  from  the  Purchase  Price.  All
uncollected tenant charges and contributions payable in arrears (including,  but
not limited to, percentage rents, common area maintenance charges, insurance and
tax  contributions)  for the lease  year in which the  Closing  occurs  shall be
apportioned between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing. The Purchase Price shall
be increased by the amount of uncollected or past due rent;  provided,  however,
that  no  adjustment   shall  be  made  for  rent,   tenant  charges  or  tenant
contributions  which  are  more  than  two (2)  months  past  due.  Common  area
maintenance  charges  and  insurance   contributions   payable  in  arrears  and
uncollected  shall be computed  based on the budget for the current year and the
pro rata share of such amounts for each  tenant.  Tax  contributions  payable in
arrears and  uncollected  shall be computed as provided in Section 3.3 and based
upon the pro  rata  share  of such  amount  for each  tenant.  For  purposes  of
prorating  percentage  rent, the  percentage  rent payable for the lease year in
which the Closing  occurs by any tenant which is open for business and obligated
to pay  percentage  rent  shall  be  determined  by  using  the  average  annual
percentage  rent paid or payable by such tenant during the prior three (3) lease
years.  From and after  Closing all  security  deposits  credited to Buyer shall
thereafter be deemed  transferred  to Buyer and Buyer shall assume and be solely
responsible  for the  payments of  security  deposits  (to the extent  Buyer was
credited for such security  deposits at Closing) to tenants in  accordance  with
the Leases (as hereinafter defined) and applicable law. Seller shall be entitled
to retain and/or receive a credit for any utility  deposits and any deposits for
third parties under any of the Contracts (as hereinafter defined).

      3.7 Prorations Generally.  A statement of prorations and other adjustments
shall be prepared by Seller in conformity  with the provisions of this Article 3
and  submitted  to Buyer for review and  approval not less than two (2) business
days prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of making prorations,  Seller shall
be deemed to be in title to the  Property  and  entitled  to the income from and
responsible for the expenses thereof, on the Closing Date.

      3.8   Closing Costs.
            -------------

            3.8.1 Seller  shall pay: (i) its legal fees and expenses  related to
      the  negotiation  and  preparation  of this  Agreement  and all  documents
      required to close the transaction contemplated hereby, and (ii) 50% of the
      escrow fees of the Escrow  Agent;  (iii) all state,  county or other taxes

      or  authority,  (iii)  Buyer's  legal  fees and  expenses  related  to the
      negotiation  of this  Agreement  and all  documents  required to close the
      transaction  contemplated  hereby,  (iv) all costs  related to the Buyer's
      inspection and due diligence,  including,  without limitation, the cost of
      appraisals, architectural,  engineering, credit and environmental reports,
      (v) 50% of all costs associated with title  examination and preparation of
      a title  commitment  as well as all  charges and  premiums  for an owner's
      title policy, and (vi) all costs allocable to preparation of the survey.

            3.8.3 All other  closing  costs  shall be paid by Seller or Buyer in
      accordance  with the  custom in the  jurisdiction  where the  Property  is
      located.

                             PRECLOSING OPERATION

      4.1  Leases.  A rent  roll  (the  "Rent  Roll")  containing  a list of all
occupants of the Property  pursuant to the leases (the  "Leases") as of the date
hereof is attached hereto as Exhibit E. Prior to September 14, 2000,  Seller may
enter into  Leases  with new tenants or  modifications  of Leases with  existing
tenants  substantially in accordance with Seller's  existing leasing  practices,
provided  that in all events any new or modified  Leases shall (i) be at or near
market rent,  and (ii) on the Seller's  current  standard form of lease.  Seller
shall deliver copies of any such new leases to Buyer.  After September 14, 2000,
Seller shall not enter into any new leases for space in excess of 10,000  square
feet without the Buyer's consent.

      4.2  Conduct of  Business.  At all times prior to  Closing,  Seller  shall
continue (a) to conduct business with respect to the Property in the same manner
in which said business has been heretofore conducted, (b) to insure the Property
substantially as currently insured, and (c) maintain the Property in its current
condition, reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty excepted.

      4.3 Property Contracts.  Seller shall make copies of all service,  supply,
management,   operating  and  leasing  contracts  affecting  the  Property  (the
"Property  Contracts")  available  for Buyer to review  promptly  after the date
hereof.  On or before the  Diligence  Date,  unless Buyer has  provided  written
notice to Seller of Buyer's  election to terminate this  Agreement,  Buyer shall
provide written notice to Seller of the Property Contracts that Buyer desires to
have terminated by Seller,  and Seller will terminate the Property  Contracts so
identified at or before  Closing,  provided that such Property  Contracts may be
terminated without cost or liability to Seller and if there is cost or liability
to Seller,  Buyer shall be  responsible  for only 30 days of payments  under any
such  contract.  At Closing,  Seller  shall  assign and Buyer  shall  assume the
Property  Contracts,  except those Property  Contracts which Buyer has requested
termination.   Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,   Seller's  existing  management
contract and exclusive  brokerage  contract for the Property shall be terminated
by Seller  effective  as of the  Closing  Date.  Seller  shall  not,  during the
pendency of this Agreement,  enter into any Property Contracts or modifications,
renewals or terminations of any existing Property  Contracts,  in each case that
would be binding upon Buyer or the Property after  Closing,  without the written
consent of Buyer, which consent Buyer agrees shall not be unreasonably withheld.
If Buyer  disapproves  any such request,  then Buyer's  notice shall specify the
reasons for such disapproval.

      5.1   Access/Purchaser's Responsibilities/Purchaser's Indemnity.
            ---------------------------------------------------------

            5.1.1 From the date hereof through the Diligence Date, Seller agrees
      that Buyer and its authorized agents or representatives  shall be entitled
      to enter upon the Real Property  during normal business hours upon advance
      written  notice  to  Seller  and  make  such  reasonable,   nondestructive
      investigations,  studies and tests including, without limitation,  surveys
      and engineering  studies as Buyer deems necessary or advisable,  provided,
      however,  that Buyer shall not be  permitted to conduct  physical  testing
      without  Seller's  prior  written  consent,  which  consent  shall  not be
      unreasonably  withheld,  conditioned or delayed. Any environmental testing
      shall be subject to  Seller's  consent  which may be  withheld in its sole
      discretion.  Seller's  prior written  consent for physical  inspections or
      testing may be conditioned  upon receipt of a detailed  description of the
      proposed physical inspection or testing, a list of contractors who will be
      performing  the  physical  inspection  or testing,  evidence of  insurance
      satisfactory to Seller,  and such other  information as Seller  reasonably
      requires in connection  with such proposed  inspection or testing.  Seller
      agrees to deliver copies of all books, records,  plans, studies,  permits,
      existing  surveys,  and other  documents in Seller's  file relating to the
      operation of the Property (the "Diligence Documents").

            5.1.2   Buyer   agrees   that   in   conducting   any   inspections,
      investigations  or tests of the Property  and/or the Diligence  Documents,
      Buyer  and its  agents  and  representatives  shall  (i) not  unreasonably
      interfere  with the operation and  maintenance  of the Property,  (ii) not
      unreasonably   disturb  the  tenants  under  the  Leases  or  unreasonably
      interfere  with their use of the  Property  pursuant  to their  respective
      Leases, (iii) not damage any part of the Property or any personal property
      owned or held by any tenant or third  party,  (iv) not injure or otherwise
      cause bodily harm to Seller,  the property  manager,  or their  respective
      guests, agents, invitees, contractors and employees or any tenant or their
      guests or invitees, (v) maintain comprehensive general liability insurance
      in terms and amounts reasonably acceptable to Seller covering any accident
      arising  in  connection  with  the  presence  of  Buyer,  its  agents  and
      representatives  on the Property,  and deliver a certificate  of insurance
      verifying  such coverage to Seller prior to entry upon the Property;  (vi)
      promptly  pay  when  due  the  costs  of  all  tests,  investigations  and
      examinations done with regard to the Property;  (vii) not permit any liens
      to attach to the Real Property by reason of the exercise of Buyer's rights
      hereunder, (viii) fully restore the Property to the condition in which the
      same was found before any such  inspection or tests were  undertaken;  and
      (ix) not  reveal or  disclose  any  information  obtained  during  the due
      diligence  period  concerning the Property and the Diligence  Documents to
      anyone  outside  Buyer's  organization,  except  in  accordance  with  the
      confidentiality standards set forth in Section 5.5 herein.

            5.1.3 Buyer will indemnify, defend, and hold Seller and its property
      manager harmless from all losses,  costs, liens, claims, causes of action,
      liability,   damages  and  out-of  pocket  expenses,   including,  without
      limitation,  reasonable  attorneys' fees incurred by Seller as a result of
      the entry upon or  inspections,  tests or  investigations  of the Property
      conducted by or on behalf of Buyer.  This  indemnity  obligation  of Buyer
      shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

            5.1.4 Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Diligence Documents are
      provided to Buyer for  informational  purposes only and do not  constitute
      representations  or  warranties  of Seller  or its  agents,  employees  or
      representatives  of any kind as to the truth,  accuracy or completeness of
      the  Diligence  Documents  or  the  source(s)  thereof.   Seller  has  not
      undertaken  any  independent  investigation  as to the truth,  accuracy or
      completeness  of the Diligence  Documents,  and is providing the Diligence
      Documents solely as an accommodation to Buyer.

      5.2  Diligence.  Subject to  Section  5.1,  above,  Buyer  shall  promptly

            5.2.6 Review all Leases affecting the Property.

      Buyer shall  complete its due diligence on or before the  Diligence  Date.
Notwithstanding any other term or provision herein to the contrary, in the event
that Buyer's due diligence  shall reveal any matters which are not acceptable to
Buyer, in Buyer's sole discretion, Buyer may elect, by written notice to Seller,
received by Seller on or before the  Diligence  Date,  not to proceed  with this
purchase, in which event this Agreement shall terminate,  the Escrow Agent shall
return the  Escrowed  Amount to the Buyer and this  Agreement  shall be null and
void without recourse to either party hereto (except to the extent such recourse
arises in  connection  with a provision  of this  Agreement  which is  expressly
intended to survive termination). BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, PURSUANT TO THE TERMS
OF THIS  AGREEMENT,  BUYER SHALL BE AFFORDED A FULL  OPPORTUNITY  TO INSPECT THE
PROPERTY,  OBSERVE ITS  PHYSICAL  CHARACTERISTICS  AND EXISTING  CONDITIONS  AND
CONDUCT  SUCH  INVESTIGATIONS  AND  STUDIES ON AND OF SAID  PROPERTY AS IT DEEMS
NECESSARY (EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 5.6 HEREIN) AND THAT, UNLESS
BUYER  TERMINATES  THIS  AGREEMENT  PURSUANT TO THIS  SECTION 5.2 BUYER SHALL BE
DEEMED  TO HAVE  WAIVED  ON THE  DILIGENCE  DATE  ANY AND ALL  OBJECTIONS  TO OR
COMPLAINTS REGARDING  (INCLUDING,  BUT NOT LIMITED TO, FEDERAL,  STATE OR COMMON

LIMITATION,  STRUCTURAL  AND  GEOLOGIC  CONDITIONS,  SUBSURFACE  SOIL AND  WATER
CONDITIONS  AND SOLID AND HAZARDOUS  WASTE AND HAZARDOUS  SUBSTANCES  ON, UNDER,
ADJACENT TO OR OTHERWISE  AFFECTING THE PROPERTY.  BUYER FURTHER  HEREBY ASSUMES
THE RISK OF CHANGES IN APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS RELATING TO PAST, PRESENT
AND FUTURE  ENVIRONMENTAL  CONDITIONS  ON THE PROPERTY AND THE RISK THAT ADVERSE
PHYSICAL  CHARACTERISTICS AND CONDITIONS,  INCLUDING,  WITHOUT  LIMITATION,  THE
PRESENCE  OF  HAZARDOUS  SUBSTANCES  OR OTHER  CONTAMINANTS,  MAY NOT HAVE  BEEN
REVEALED BY ITS INVESTIGATION.

      5.3   Return of Documents.
            -------------------

            5.3.1 If this  Agreement is  terminated  for any reason  whatsoever,
      Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller all Diligence  Documents  delivered
      to Buyer or Buyer's  agents,  representatives  or  designees  by Seller or
      Seller's agents,  representatives  or employees pursuant to this Agreement
      or obtained by Buyer.

            5.3.2  The  return  of the  Escrowed  Amount  to  Buyer  under  this
      Agreement shall be contingent upon Buyer's  fulfillment of its obligations
      under Section 5.4.

Diligence  Documents  are  proprietary  and  confidential  in nature and will be
delivered to Buyer  solely to assist Buyer in  determining  the  feasibility  of

Section.  Seller may publicly disclose the existence of this Agreement  provided
that the identity of Buyer is not disclosed.  Buyer shall not disclose to anyone
other than its  partners  and  financiers  the  Diligence  Documents  and/or any

public regarding Seller's operations and/or the Property.  Each party hereto may
discuss with and disclose to its accountants, attorneys, existing or prospective
lenders,   investment   bankers,   underwriters,   rating  agencies,   partners,
consultants  and other  advisors to the extent such parties  reasonably  need to
know such information and are bound by a confidentiality obligation identical in
all material  respects to the one created by this  Section.  Additionally,  each
party may discuss and disclose  such  matters to the extent  necessary to comply
with any  requirements of the Securities and Exchange  Commission or in order to
comply with any law or  interpretation  thereof or court order.  This  provision
shall  survive  termination  of this  Agreement  but  shall  terminate  upon the
Closing.  Any press release to be made regarding any matter which is the subject
of the  confidentiality  obligation  created in this Section shall be subject to
the reasonable approval of Buyer and the Seller,  respectively both as to timing
and content.

                               TITLE AND SURVEY

     6.1 Title and Survey.  Promptly  following the execution of this Agreement,
Buyer shall obtain:

     6.1.1 A current ALTA  as-built  survey of the Real Property or an update of
Seller's survey (the "Survey"); and

      from the Escrow Agent (the "Title  Commitment").  Buyer shall cause a copy
      of the completed Title Commitment to be forwarded to Seller.

      If the Survey or matters listed as exceptions in the Title  Commitment are
not  satisfactory  to Buyer,  Buyer  shall,  five (5)  business  days before the
Diligence  Date,  provide  Seller with written  notice of such  objections  (the
"Title Objections").  Seller, at its sole cost and expense shall have the right,
but not the  obligation,  to cure or remove any Title  Objections and shall give
Buyer written notice on or prior to the Diligence Date,  identifying those Title
Objections,  if any,  that  Seller  agrees to use  reasonable  efforts  to cure;
provided,  however,  that Seller  shall not be  obligated  to incur any costs or
expenses  in excess of $1,000 in  connection  with any such cure  undertaken  by
Seller.  If there are Title Objections which Seller is unable to cure by its use
of  reasonable  efforts or unwilling to cure by the  Diligence  Date,  Buyer may
terminate  this  Agreement  as  provided  in  Section  5.3,  above or waive such
objections  which  Seller is not willing or able to cure and proceed to closing.
Those  exceptions  or title  deficiencies  which  (i) Buyer  does not  object to
pursuant to this Section 6.1 or (ii) are waived  because  Seller is unwilling or
unable to cure shall be the "Permitted Exceptions."

      6.2 Deed. On the Closing Date,  Seller shall convey by good and sufficient
special  warranty deed to Buyer good and clear record and  marketable fee simple
title to all of the Real  Property  free and clear of all  liens,  encumbrances,
conditions,  easements,  assessments,  restrictions and other conditions, except

     6.2.2 All zoning, building and other laws applicable to the Property;

     6.2.3 All matters  which arise  after the  Diligence  Date which are agreed
upon or consented to by Buyer;

      due and  payable  prior to the  Closing  Date  (subject  to  proration  in
      accordance with Section 3.3 herein);

            6.2.5 All matters shown on Schedule B of the Title  Commitment or of
      public record as of the effective  date of the Title  Commitment and which
      Seller has not agreed to cure pursuant to Section 6.1, above;

            6.2.6 The Permitted Exceptions;

            6.2.7 Any matters shown on the Survey; and

            6.2.8 All matters, whether or not of record, to the extent caused by
      Buyer or its agents, representatives or contractors.

      6.3 Lease  Assignment.  At the Closing,  Seller shall assign the Leases to
Buyer and Buyer shall assume  Seller's  obligations  thereunder and Seller shall
convey the Personal Property to Buyer by quitclaim bill of sale.

warrants to Buyer as of the date of this Agreement as follows:

            (a) Organization and Power.  Seller is a general partnership validly

      delivered by Buyer and (assuming  valid  execution and delivery by Seller)
      is a legal, valid and binding  obligation of Buyer enforceable  against it
      in accordance with its terms.

                           CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

      8.1 Casualty.  If the Property is materially  damaged by fire or any other
casualty and are not substantially  restored to the condition  immediately prior
to such  casualty  before the  Closing  Date,  Buyer  shall  have the  following
elections:

            8.1.1 to purchase  the  Property in its then  condition  and pay the
      Purchase Price, in which event Seller shall pay over or assign to Buyer as
      the case may be, on the Closing Date,  amounts recovered or recoverable by
      Seller on account of any  insurance as a result of such casualty up to the
      amount of the  Purchase  Price,  less any amounts  reasonably  expended by
      Seller for partial restoration if such partial restoration is approved and
      consented to by Buyer; or

            8.1.2 if any  portion of the  Property  suffers  damage in excess of
      $500,000 from fire or any other casualty which Seller, in its sole option,
      elects not to repair,  to terminate  this  Agreement  by giving  notice of
      termination  to Seller on or before  that date  which is thirty  (30) days
      after the occurrence of the fire or other casualty or on the Closing Date,
      whichever  occurs first,  in which event the Escrow Agent shall return the
      Escrowed  Amount to Buyer,  this  Agreement  shall  terminate  and neither
      Seller nor Buyer shall have any recourse  against the other (except to the
      extent  such  recourse  arises  in  connection  with a  provision  of this
      Agreement which is intended to survive termination).

      8.2  Condemnation.  If  any  substantial  portion  of or  interest  in the
Property  shall be taken or is in the  process of being taken by exercise of the
power of eminent domain or if any governmental  authority  notifies Seller prior
to the Closing  Date of its intent to take or acquire any portion of or interest
in the  Property  (each an "Eminent  Domain  Taking"),  Seller shall give notice
promptly  to Buyer of such event and Buyer  shall  have the option to  terminate
this  Agreement  by  providing  notice to Seller to such effect on or before the
date which is ten (10) days from Seller's notice to Buyer of such Eminent Domain
Taking or on the Closing Date, whichever occurs first, in which event the Escrow
Agent shall return the Escrowed Amount to Buyer, this Agreement shall terminate,
and neither  Seller nor Buyer shall have any recourse  against the other (except
to the extent  such  recourse  arises in  connection  with a  provision  of this
Agreement  which is intended to survive  termination).  If Buyer does not timely
notify Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement,  Buyer shall purchase
the Property and pay the Purchase Price,  and Seller shall pay over or assign to
Buyer on delivery  of the deed  awards  recovered  or  recoverable  by Seller on
account of such Eminent  Domain  Taking up to the amount of the Purchase  Price,
less any amounts reasonably expended by Seller in obtaining such award.

                                   ARTICLE 9

                             BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS

      Seller  represents  and  warrants  to Buyer  that  Seller  has not used or
employed any broker or brokers in connection with the negotiation,  execution or
consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

      Buyer  represents  and  warrants  to  Seller  that  Buyer  has not used or
employed any broker or brokers in connection with the negotiation,  execution or
consummation  of the  transaction  contemplated  by this  Agreement.  Buyer will
indemnify,  defend and hold Seller  harmless  from and against any claims of any
commission,   finder's  fee,  or  other  compensation  in  connection  with  the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

      Buyer and Seller each hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold the other
harmless  from and against  any  claims,  losses,  damages,  costs,  or expenses
(including,  but not  limited  to,  reasonable  attorney's  fees) of any kind or
character which arise as a result of breach of the foregoing  representation and
warranty.

                                  ARTICLE 10

                       DEFAULT, TERMINATION AND REMEDIES

      10.1 In the event that Seller  shall have failed in any  material  respect
adverse to Buyer to have performed any of the covenants and agreements contained
in this  Agreement  which are to be performed by Seller on or before the Closing
Date,  Buyer shall have the right to terminate  this  Agreement  and receive the
Escrowed Amount.

      10.2 In the event that Buyer  shall have  failed in any  material  respect
adverse to Seller on the Closing Date to have performed any of the covenants and
agreements  contained in this Agreement which are to be performed by Buyer on or
before  the  Closing  Date,  or if Buyer  defaults  in its  obligation  to close
hereunder, Seller shall be entitled to receive the Escrowed Amount as liquidated
damages,  in lieu of all other remedies  available to Seller at law or in equity
for such  default,  and Buyer  shall  direct  the Escrow  Agent to  release  the
Escrowed Amount to Seller.  Seller and Buyer agree that the damages resulting to
Seller as a result of such default by Buyer as of the date of this Agreement are
difficult or impossible to ascertain and the liquidated damages set forth in the
preceding sentence  constitute Buyer's and Seller's  reasonable estimate of such
damages.

                                  ARTICLE 11
                                 MISCELLANEOUS

      11.1  Without  the prior  written  consent  of  Seller,  Buyer  shall not,
directly or  indirectly,  assign this  Agreement or any of its rights  hereunder
except to an affiliate of Buyer that is wholly owned by Buyer or is wholly owned
and  controlled  by the same parties who own and control  Buyer.  Any  attempted
assignment  in  violation  hereof  shall,  at the election of Seller in its sole
discretion, be of no force or effect and shall constitute a default by Buyer. No
designation  of a  nominee  to  receive  title or  direction  to  convey  to the
Permitted   Designee  shall  release  Buyer  from  its  obligations  under  this
Agreement. The covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall extend
to and be obligatory upon the permitted successors and assigns of the respective
parties to this  Agreement.  After the Closing,  Buyer may assign its  remaining
obligations  under this  Agreement  in  connection  with a sale of the  Property
without  Seller's  consent  provided such assignee  assumes Buyer's  obligations
under this Agreement.

      11.2 Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice required
or permitted to be delivered  under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be deemed given if (i) delivered by hand during  regular  business  hours,  (ii)
sent by United States Postal  Service,  registered  or certified  mail,  postage
prepaid,  return receipt requested,  (iii) sent by a reputable overnight express
mail  service  that  provides  tracing  and proof of receipt or refusal of items
mailed,  or (iv) sent by telecopier or facsimile  transmission with confirmation
copy by notice methods (i), (ii) or (iii) above addressed to Seller or Buyer, as
the case may be, at the  address  or  addresses  set forth  below or such  other
addresses as the parties may designate in a notice  similarly  sent.  Any notice
given by a party to  Escrow  Agent  shall be  simultaneously  given to the other
party.  Any  notice  given  by a  party  to  the  other  party  relating  to its
entitlement to the Escrowed Amount shall be  simultaneously  given to the Escrow
Agent.

as a result of the actions taken hereunder,  except as they may be the result of
gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Designee. The Designee
shall  provide  all  parties to this  transaction  with  copies of the IRS Forms

                                    ESCROW

      13.1 The Escrow Agent has executed this  Agreement only for the purpose of
agreeing to perform the duties assigned to it under this Agreement. Prior to the
Diligence  Date,  Escrow Agent is hereby  authorized and directed to release the
Escrowed Amount to Buyer promptly upon Buyer's written request,  without joinder
by Seller and notwithstanding any objection interposed by Seller. This Agreement
shall  terminate upon any such request from Buyer pursuant to Section 4.5 above.
From and after the Diligence Date the Escrow Agent shall,  upon receiving a copy
of a  notice  given  by a party  in  accordance  with  this  Agreement  claiming
entitlement  to all or a portion of the  Escrowed  Amount,  give a notice to the
other party that such claim of entitlement has been made. The Escrow Agent shall
not cause or permit any portion of the Escrowed Amount to be disbursed until the
expiration  of five (5) days of giving  such notice  whereupon,  if the party to
whom  such  notice  was  given has not  given  the  Escrow  Agent  notice of its
objection to a disbursement  in accordance  with the claim of  entitlement,  the
Escrow Agent shall cause a disbursement of the Escrowed Amount as requested.  If
such party timely objects,  however,  the Escrow Agent shall retain the Escrowed
Amount and not  disburse  any portion of the same unless  directed by the mutual
written  direction of the parties.  The Escrow Agent shall at all times disburse
the Escrowed Amount as required in a mutual written direction of the parties.

      13.2 In the event of any  disagreement  between  the  parties,  the Escrow
Agent shall  retain all  deposits  pending  instructions  mutually  agreed to by
Seller and Buyer. In the event there is no mutual  agreement by Seller and Buyer
for  disbursements,  the Escrow Agent shall hold said  deposits  pending a court
order to disburse.  The Escrow Agent may conclusively  rely on the authenticity,
validity  and  effectiveness  of any writing  delivered  to it, and Escrow Agent
shall not be obligated to make any  investigation  or  determination,  except as
provided in the case of disputes as to the truth and accuracy of any information
contained therein.  Buyer and Seller agree to defend,  indemnify and hold Escrow
Agent harmless from any liabilities,  suits, claims, or expenses arising from or
out of or in connection  with Escrow  Agent's acts or failure to act  hereunder,
unless  caused or created as a result of Escrow  Agent's gross  negligence,  and
Escrow Agent shall be entitled to  reimbursement  by Buyer and/or Seller for all
reasonable  costs  and  expenses  incurred  in the  performance  of  its  duties
hereunder  including,   without  limitation,   all  out-of-pocket  expenses  and
reasonable  attorneys' fees of counsel  retained by Escrow Agent. Any such costs
and expenses not paid by the parties after billing and supporting  documentation
by Escrow Agent may be paid by Escrow Agent out of the Escrowed Amount. If there
is a settlement  by Buyer and Seller  prior to a court  order,  Buyer and Seller
will share equally in the expenses incurred by the Escrow Agent. Otherwise,  the
non-prevailing  party shall assume full  responsibility  for the Escrow  Agent's
expenses.  Escrow  Agent is not  required  to  advance or expend or risk its own
funds or  otherwise  incur  personal  liability  in  performance  of its  duties
hereunder and it may require advancement of funds by the parties.
