27 floor office building with a four-level, 390 space parking garage

general partner, has a contract to purchase Morgan Keegan Tower

THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into as of August
_______, 1997 (the "Effective Date") by and between CARLYLE REAL
ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP-XIII, an Illinois limited partnership
(hereinafter called "Seller"), and PARKWAY PROPERTIES, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership (hereinafter called "Buyer").
R E C I T A L S
A. Seller is the owner of that certain real property
located in the City of Knoxville, County of Knox, State of
Tennessee, consisting primarily of an office building (the
"Building") sometimes known as "First Tennessee Plaza".
B. Buyer desires to purchase such premises on the terms
and conditions hereinafter documented.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual undertakings
of the parties hereto, it is hereby agreed as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale. Seller shall sell to Buyer, and
Buyer shall purchase from Seller, the land (the "Land")
described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof,
together with all right, title and interest of Seller in and to
all improvements, structures and fixtures located upon the Land,
all right, title and interest of Seller in and to those items of
personal property described in Exhibit "B" attached hereto and
made a part hereof, all right, title and interest of Seller in
and to the name "First Tennessee Plaza", to the extent
assignable, all right, title and and interest of Seller in and
to all contract rights and agreements, and all right, title and
interest of Seller in and to all leases, tenant lists,
advertising material and telephone exchange numbers relating
solely to the Property (hereinafter, collectively, the
"Property"), all upon the terms, covenants and conditions
hereinafter set forth.
2. Purchase Price.
A. The purchase price (the "Purchase Price") for the
Property shall be the sum of Twenty-Nine Million Two Hundred
Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($29,200,000.00).
3. Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall
be paid to Seller by Buyer as follows:
A. Escrow Deposit. Concurrently herewith, Buyer
shall deliver $100,000 (together with all interest thereon, the
"Initial Escrow Deposit") to Ticor Title Insurance Company, 201
North LaSalle Street, Suite 1400, Chicago, Illinois, 60601,
Attention: Rick Lucchesi (which company, in its capacity as
escrow holder hereunder, is called "Escrow Holder"). In
addition, if Buyer shall deliver the "Approval Notice" prior to
the expiration of the "Due Diligence Period", as provided (and
defined) in paragraph 4B hereof, Seller shall concurrently
therewith deliver an additional deposit of $150,000 (the
"Additional Escrow Deposit") to Escrow Holder. Each deposit to
be made hereunder shall be made by a bank or cashier's check
drawn on a major national money center banking institution
reasonably acceptable to Seller (or by other delivery of good
funds reasonably acceptable to Seller), and the amounts so
deposited shall be held by Escrow Holder as a deposit against
the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms and provisions
of this Agreement. As used herein, the term "Escrow Deposit"
means the Initial Escrow Deposit and, from and after the deposit
thereof, the Additional Escrow Deposit, together with all
interest earned on such deposits while the same are held in
escrow hereunder. At all times in which the Escrow Deposit is
being held by the Escrow Holder, the Escrow Deposit shall be
invested by Escrow Holder in the following investments
("Approved Investments"): (i) an insured interest bearing
account of a financial institution reasonably acceptable to
Buyer and Seller, or (ii) such other manner as may be reasonably
approved by Seller and Buyer. The Escrow Deposit shall be
disposed of by Escrow Holder only as provided in this Agreement.
B. Independent Consideration. Seller and Buyer
acknowledge and agree that One Hundred and No/100 Dollars
($100.00) of the Escrow Deposit (the "Independent Contract
Consideration") shall be paid to Seller is terminated for any
reason. Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that the
Independent Contract Consideration has been bargained for and
agreed to as additional consideration for Seller's execution and
delivery of this Agreement. At "Closing" (as hereinafter
defined), the Independent Contract Consideration shall be
applied to the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing to
the contrary, the payment to Seller of such Independent Contract
Consideration shall in no way limit, and are in addition to, any
other rights or remedies of Seller hereunder (including, without
limitation, disposition of the Escrow Deposit in accordance with
paragraph 9 below).
C. Existing Debt. Subject to the provisions of
paragraph 4C below, payment of a portion of the Purchase Price
shall be evidenced by Buyer taking title to the Property subject
to the "Existing Encumbrance" and the "Loan Documents"
(including, the "Existing Note") secured thereby (as such terms
are defined in Exhibit "C" attached hereto and made a part
hereof), such payment being in an amount equal to the
outstanding principal balance of the Existing Note as of the
"Closing Date" (as hereinafter defined). Assuming the Closing
Date occurs on September 4, 1997, the outstanding principal
balance of the Existing Note is anticipated to be approximately
$14,900,000.
D. Closing Payment. The balance of the Purchase
Price (i.e., the Purchase Price less the sum of the Deposit and
the amounts, if any, deemed paid pursuant to paragraph 3B above,
as such amounts shall be adjusted by the prorations and credits
specified herein) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately
available federal funds on the Closing Date as directed by
Seller (the amount to be paid under this subparagraph D being
herein called the "Closing Payment"). Assuming the Closing Date
occurs in September, 1997, the
Closing Payment is anticipated to be approximately $29,200,000,
less the Deposit and adjusted by the prorations and credits
specified herein (i.e., $26,700,000, less the anticipated
principal balance of the Existing Note of approximately
$14,900,000).
4. Conditions Precedent.
A. Title Matters.
(1) Title Report. Seller has delivered a
commitment for title insurance ("Title Commitment") covering the
Property from Ticor Title Insurance Company dated June 16, 1997
(which company, in its capacity as title insurer hereunder, is
herein called the "Title Company"). In addition, Seller has
delivered to Buyer an update of that certain survey of the
Property dated February 23, 1995, and last revised July 25,
1997, prepared by Barge, Waggoner, Sumner & Cannon, Inc., which
survey shall be certified to Buyer and the "Lender" (as
hereinafter defined) and Title Company ("Survey"). If Buyer
shall deliver the Approval Notice on or before the end of the
Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the
exceptions to title shown on the Title Commitment and the
matters disclosed on the Survey so long as the Title Commitment
and Survey have been previously delivered to Buyer. Approval by
Buyer of any additional exceptions to title or survey matters
disclosed after the end of the Due Diligence Period shall be a
condition precedent to Buyer's obligation to purchase the
Property (Buyer hereby agreeing that its approval of such
additional exceptions to title or survey matters shall not be
unreasonably withheld). Unless Buyer gives written notice that
it disapproves any such additional exceptions to title or survey
matters, stating the exceptions so disapproved, on or before the
sooner to occur of 5 days after receipt of written notice
thereof or the Closing Date, Buyer shall be deemed to have
approved said exceptions. If, for any reason, on or before the
Closing Date, Seller does not cause any exceptions to title or
survey matters which Buyer disapproves (to the extent Buyer is
permitted hereunder to so disapprove) either to be removed or to
obtain a title endorsement (if available) insuring over such
disapproved matter on or before the Closing Date at no cost or
expense to Buyer (Seller having the right but not the obligation
to do so), the obligation of Seller to sell, and Buyer to buy,
the Property as herein provided shall terminate (and Seller and
Buyer shall have no further obligations in connection herewith).
Buyer shall have the option to waive the condition precedent
set forth in this Paragraph 4A(1) by notice to Seller. In the
event of such waiver, such condition shall be deemed satisfied.
(2) Exceptions to Title. Buyer shall be
obligated to accept title to the Property, subject to the
following exceptions to title:
(a) Real estate taxes and assessments not
yet due and payable;
(b) The Loan Documents; and
(c) Such exceptions to title as may be
approved or deemed approval by Buyer pursuant to the provisions
of subparagraph A(1) above.
Conclusive evidence of the availability of such title shall be
the willingness of Title Company to issue to Buyer on the
Closing Date an owner's title insurance policy in the standard
form issued in the State of Tennessee ("Owner's Policy"), in the
face amount of the Purchase Price, which policy shows (i) title
to the Property to be vested of record in Buyer, and (ii) the
above exceptions to be the only exceptions to title.
B. Due Diligence Reviews. Buyer shall have until
5:00 p.m. (Central time) on August 22, 1997 (the "Due Diligence
Period") within which to perform and complete all of Buyer's due
diligence examinations, reviews and inspections of all matters
pertaining to the purchase of the Property, including all
leases, documents relating to the existing financing (including
Loan Documents), service contracts, survey and title matters,
and all physical, environmental and compliance matters and
conditions respecting the Property. During the Due Diligence
Period, Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable access to the
Property upon reasonable advance notice and shall also make
available to Buyer, upon reasonable advance notice, such leases,
service contracts and other contracts respecting the Property as
Buyer shall reasonably request (to the extent the same are in
Seller's possession). Buyer shall promptly commence, and shall
diligently and in good faith pursue, its due diligence review
hereunder. Buyer shall at all times conduct its due diligence
review, inspections and examinations in a manner so as to not
cause damage, loss, cost or expense to Seller or the Property
and so as to not interfere with or disturb any tenant at the
Property, and Buyer will indemnify, defend, and hold Seller and
the Property harmless from and against any such damage, loss,
cost or expense (the foregoing obligation surviving any
termination of this Agreement). Without limitation on the
foregoing, in no event shall Buyer (a) make any intrusive
physical testing (environmental, structural or otherwise) at the
Property (such as soil borings, water samplings or the like)
without Seller's express written consent; (b) contact any tenant
of the Property without Seller's express written consent; and
(c) contact any governmental authority having jurisdiction over
the Property without Seller's express written consent (which
consent as to tenants and governmental authorities shall not be
unreasonably withheld). Seller shall have the right, at its
option, to cause a representative of Seller to be present at all
inspections, reviews and examinations conducted hereunder.
Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller true, accurate and
complete copies of any written reports relating to the Property
prepared for or on behalf of Buyer by any third party and in the
event of termination hereunder, shall return all documents and
other materials furnished by Seller hereunder. Buyer shall keep
all information or data received or discovered in connection
with any of the inspections, reviews or examinations strictly
confidential. If, on or before the expiration of the Due
Diligence Period, based upon such review, examination or
inspection, Buyer shall determine that it intends to proceed
with the acquisition of the Property, then Buyer shall promptly
notify Seller and Escrow Holder of such determination in writing
(such notice being herein called the "Approval Notice") and
concurrently therewith Buyer shall deliver the Additional Escrow
Deposit to Escrow Holder (and thereafter, Buyer shall have no
further right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this
paragraph 4B). If, however, on or before the expiration of the
Due Diligence Period, based upon such review, examination or
inspection, Buyer shall determine in its sole and absolute
discretion that it no longer intends to acquire the Property,
then Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of such determination in
writing (such notice being herein called the "Termination
Notice"), whereupon the Escrow Deposit shall be returned to
Buyer and this Agreement, and the obligations of the parties
hereunder, shall terminate. In the event that, on or before the
expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall fail to have
delivered the Approval Notice to Seller (and concurrently
therewith deposit the Additional Escrow Deposit with Escrow
Holder as provided for in this Agreement), Buyer shall be deemed
to have elected not to proceed with the acquisition of the
Property whereupon the Escrow Deposit shall be returned to Buyer
and this Agreement, and the obligations of the parties
hereunder, shall terminate.
C. Existing Loan Matters. Receipt of the written
consent to the transactions contemplated herein from all parties
whose consent to the assumption by Buyer of such Loan Documents
is required thereunder, together with a release of Seller from
any liability under the Loan Documents, and an "estoppel
certificate" executed by The Prudential Insurance Company of
America (the "Existing Lender") certifying that the Loan
Documents are in full force and effect and that no default
exists thereunder, shall be conditions precedent to Seller's
obligation to sell, and Buyer's obligation to purchase, the
Property. To the extent required by the Existing Lender, Seller
shall pay to the Existing Lender up to 1% of the outstanding
principal balance of the Existing Note as a loan transfer fee or
prepayment premium or fee. Seller shall pay any other transfer,
assumption or other fees and costs (including reasonable
attorneys' fees, but not attorneys' fees of Buyer's counsel)
imposed by any of such parties with respect to such consent and
assumption (including any loan transfer, assumption fee or
prepayment premium in excess of 1% of the outstanding principal
balance of the Existing Note) up to a maximum of $15,000.
Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller in connection with
such consent and assumption (and shall promptly deliver such
information, including financial information, respecting Buyer
or its principals as any of such parties may request). Seller's
sole obligations in connection with the consent matters herein
contemplated (unless Buyer agrees otherwise) shall be to utilize
reasonable efforts to obtain such consents, and to reasonably
cooperate with Buyer to the extent necessary, including, but not
limited to, with respect to its efforts in connection with
substitution of the letter of credit. If such consents are not
obtained on or before the Closing Date, the obligation of Seller
to sell, and Buyer to purchase, the Property shall terminate.
Seller's sole obligation hereunder with respect to obtaining an
"estoppel certificate" from the Existing Lender shall be to
utilize reasonable efforts to obtain such "estoppel certificate"
(such reasonable efforts not including any obligation to
institute legal proceedings or to expend any additional monies
therefor, other than for minor administrative charges).
D. Estoppel Certificates. Receipt of estoppel
certificates ("Tenant Estoppel Certificates"), from (i) each
tenant listed on Exhibit "D-1" attached hereto and made a part
hereof, and (ii) from a sufficient number of the balance of the
tenants at the Property so that Tenant Estoppel Certificates
shall be received under clauses (i) and (ii) hereof with respect
to not less than 80% of the net rentable square feet of space
covered by leases in effect as of the Closing Date, shall be a
condition precedent to Buyer's obligation to purchase the
Property hereunder. Each Tenant Estoppel Certificate shall
either be substantially in the form provided in Exhibit "D-2"
attached hereto and made a part hereof or in the form, if any,
prescribed in the applicable tenant lease. Seller's sole
obligation hereunder shall be to utilize commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain a Tenant Estoppel Certificate from each tenant
at the Property (such reasonable efforts obligations not
including any obligation to institute legal proceedings or to
expend monies therefor), but such obligation shall not affect
the provision of such Tenant Estoppel Certificates as a
condition precedent to closing. In addition, it shall be a
condition precedent to Buyer's obligation to close hereunder
that, as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall have received an
estoppel certificate addressed to Buyer from Seller with respect
to those tenants which fail to deliver tenant estoppel
certificates ("Seller's Estoppel Certificates") certifying the
following: that the applicable lease is in full force and
effect, that a true and complete copy of the applicable lease is
attached to the applicable Seller's Estoppel Certificate; that
neither the tenant nor the landlord under the applicable lease
is in default thereunder; that the Seller's Estoppel Certificate
states the present amount of annual base rent being paid by the
tenant under the applicable lease and the commencement and
termination dates under the applicable lease. A Seller's
Estoppel Certificate shall be of no further force and effect as
to any tenant which delivers an Tenant Estoppel Certificate
subsequent to Seller's delivery of the Seller's Estoppel
Certificates to Buyer, provided such Tenant Estoppel Certificate
is consistent in all material respects with the information with
respect to such tenant contained in the applicable Seller's
Estoppel Certificate previously delivered to Buyer.
E. Removal of Stained Soil. The removal of certain
black stained soil located in the sump pits of the garage
elevators at the Property, as the same was disclosed in a phase
I environmental report prepared by PSI for Buyer as project
number 360-7E015 ("Buyer's Phase I"), shall be a condition
precedent to Buyer's obligation to purchase the Property
hereunder.
5. Closing Procedure. The closing of the sale and
purchase herein provided (the "Closing") shall be consummated at
a closing conference ("Closing Conference"), which shall be held
on the Closing Date at Seller's offices at 900 North Michigan
Avenue, Chicago, Illinois or through escrow through the mail.
As used herein, "Closing Date" means the date which is 15 days
after the end of the Due Diligence Period, or such earlier date
as may be agreed upon by Buyer and Seller; provided, however, if
any of the conditions to closing set forth in paragraph 4C above
are not satisfied on or before the Closing Date, and so long as
Buyer shall not then be in default or have otherwise breached
its obligations under this Agreement, Buyer and/or Seller shall
have the right to extend the Closing Date for up to forty-five
(45) days in order to attempt to satisfy such conditions.
A. Escrow. On or before the Closing Date, the
parties shall deliver to Title Company the following: (1) by
Seller, a duly executed and acknowledged original limited
warranty deed ("Deed") in the form of Exhibit "E" attached
hereto and made a part hereof, and (2) by Buyer, the Closing
Payment in immediately available federal funds. Such deliveries
shall be made pursuant to escrow instructions ("Escrow
Instructions") to be executed among Buyer, Seller and Title
Company in form reasonably acceptable to such parties in order
to effectuate the intent hereof. The conditions to the closing
of such escrow shall include the Title Company's receipt of the
Deed, the Closing Payment and a notice from each of Buyer and
Seller authorizing Title Company to close the transactions as
contemplated herein (each of Buyer and Seller being obligated to
deliver such authorization notice at the Closing Conference as
soon as it is reasonably satisfied that the other party is in a
position to deliver the items to be delivered by such other
party under subparagraph B below).
B. Delivery to Parties. Upon the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in the Escrow Instructions, then
(x) the Deed shall be delivered to Buyer by Title Company's

the title insurance premium for the Owner's Policy, as well as
any portion of the title insurance premium attributable to any
additional or extended coverage or endorsements requested by
Buyer, (ii) one-half of any escrow or recording charges and
(iii) all fees, costs or expenses incurred by Buyer in
connection with Buyer's due diligence reviews hereunder. Each
of Seller and Buyer shall pay its own attorneys' fees and its
respective share of prorations as hereinafter provided.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the sale
contemplated hereby does not close on the Closing Date, then
each party shall pay all costs incurred by it.
D. Prorations.
(1) Items to be Prorated. The following shall
be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date:
(a) All real estate taxes and assessments
on the Property for the current year on a per diem basis. In no
event shall Seller be charged with or be responsible for any
increase in the taxes on the Property resulting from the sale of
the Property or from any improvements made or leases entered
into on or after the Closing Date. If any assessments on the
Property are payable in installments, then the installment for
the current period shall be prorated (with Buyer assuming the
obligation to pay any installments due after the Closing Date).
(b) All fixed and additional rentals under
the leases, security deposits and other tenant charges. Seller
shall deliver or provide a credit in an amount equal to all
prepaid rentals for periods after the Closing Date and all
refundable security deposits (to the extent the foregoing are
not applied or forfeited prior to the Closing Date) to Buyer on
the Closing Date. Rents which are delinquent as of the Closing
Date shall not be prorated on the Closing Date. Buyer shall
include such delinquencies in its normal billing and shall
diligently pursue the collection thereof in good faith after the
Closing Date (but Buyer shall not be required to litigate or
declare a default in any lease). To the extent Buyer receives
rents on or after the Closing Date, such payments shall be
applied first toward then current rent owed to Buyer in
connection with the applicable lease for which such payments are
received, and any excess monies received shall be applied toward
the payment of any delinquent rents, with Seller's share thereof
being promptly delivered to Seller. Buyer may not waive any
delinquent rents nor modify a lease so as to reduce or otherwise
affect amounts owed thereunder for any period in which Seller is
entitled to receive a share of charges or amounts without first
obtaining Seller's written consent. Seller hereby reserves the
right to pursue any monetary remedy against any tenant owing
delinquent rents and any other amounts to Seller. Buyer shall
reasonably cooperate with Seller in any collection efforts
hereunder (but shall not be required to litigate or declare a
default in any lease). With respect to delinquent rents and any
other amounts or other rights of any kind respecting tenants who
are no longer tenants of the Property as of the Closing Date,
Seller shall retain all rights relating thereto.
(c) Interest and any other payments, fees
and charges owed under the Loan Documents, including, but not
limited to, any amounts owed to the Existing Lender, loan
administrator or any other party thereunder.
(d) On or before the Closing Date, Seller
shall pay or cause to be paid (or there shall be escrowed for
payment at closing) all tenant improvement costs and leasing and
brokerage commissions which are payable with respect to Tenant
Leases affecting such Property executed prior to the date hereof
(including those costs and commissions set forth on Exhibit "H-
2" hereto, but excluding the tenant improvement costs due with
respect to the GSA-OHA lease), whether the same are due on or
prior to the Closing Date or payable in installments subsequent
thereto and including any portion thereof due upon any renewals
of any such Tenant Lease or options to lease additional space
but only if such renewal or additional space option commences
prior to the date of this Agreement. Buyer shall assume the
payment of all tenant improvement costs and leasing and
brokerage commissions which are or may hereafter become due with
respect to (i) any renewals of any Tenant Leases or options to
lease additional space under any Tenant Leases if such renewals
or additional space options are exercised and commence or arise
after the date of this Agreement so long as Buyer has received
copies of all commission agreements for such renewals or
additional space options prior to the date of this Agreement,
(ii) the GSA-OHA lease, and (iii) any Tenant Leases hereinafter
executed prior to the closing with Buyer's written consent.
(e) All operating expenses.
(2) Calculation. The prorations and payments
shall be made on the basis of a written statement submitted to
Buyer and Seller by Escrow Holder prior to the Close of Escrow
and approved by Buyer and Seller. In the event any prorations
or apportionments made under this subparagraph D shall prove to
be incorrect for any reason, then any party shall be entitled to
an adjustment to correct the same provided written notice of
such inaccuracy and request for correction is given within six
months after the date hereof. Any item which cannot be finally
prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be
tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then
available and reprorated when the information is available, but
not later than six months after the date hereof.
(3) Reimbursement of Tenant Improvement and
Leasing Costs. Buyer agrees that it will pay or reimburse
Seller or the tenant, as applicable, for all tenant improvement
and leasing commission obligations of the landlord under any
leases entered into after the date hereof in accordance with
paragraph 7D(3) below, and the GSA/OHA lease (with any amounts
due to Seller being credited on the Closing Date).
6. Condemnation or Destruction of Property. In the event
that, after the date hereof but prior to the Closing Date,
either any portion of the Property is taken pursuant to eminent
domain proceedings or any of the improvements on the Property
are damaged or destroyed by any casualty, Seller shall have no
obligation to repair or replace any such damage or destruction.
Seller shall, upon consummation of the transaction herein
provided, assign to Buyer all claims of Seller respecting any
condemnation or casualty insurance coverage, as applicable, and
all condemnation proceeds or proceeds from any such casualty
insurance received by Seller on account of any casualty (the
damage from which shall not have been repaired by Seller prior
to the Closing Date), and shall credit the Purchase Price for
any applicable deductible relating thereto, as applicable;
provided, however, that Seller shall retain any proceeds
received (and the right to receive any proceeds) of rental
income insurance or a temporary taking award that are
attributable to a period prior to the Closing Date. In the
event the condemnation award or the cost of repair of damage to
the Property on account of a casualty, as applicable, shall
exceed $100,000, Buyer may, at its option, terminate this
Agreement by notice to Seller, given on or before the Closing
Date.
7. Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
A. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of
Seller.
(1) General Disclaimer. Except as specifically
set forth in Paragraph 7A(2) below, the sale of the Property
hereunder is and will be made on an "as is" basis, without

Improvements), the environmental condition of the Property

representation or warranty respecting any income, expenses,
charges, liens or encumbrances, rights or claims on, affecting

examine, review and inspect all matters which in Buyer's
judgment bear upon the Property and its value and suitability
for Buyer's purposes. Except as to matters specifically set
forth in Paragraph 7A(2) below, Buyer will acquire the Property
solely on the basis of its own physical and financial
examinations, reviews and inspections and the title insurance
protection afforded by the Owner's Policy; provided, however,
that the foregoing shall in no way affect or limit those
warranties of title specifically contained in the Deed. Without
limitation thereon, Buyer hereby waives any and all rights of
contribution or other rights or remedies against Seller under
the Commercial Environmental Responsibility Compensation and
Liability Act or any other applicable environmental laws, rules
or regulations.
(2) Limited Representations and Warranties of
Seller. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 7A(1) above,
Seller hereby represents and warrants that, except as set forth
in Exhibit "G" attached hereto and made a part hereof, Seller
has no knowledge that any of the following statements is untrue
(and, for this purpose, Seller's knowledge shall mean only the
present actual knowledge of Brian K. Ellison, Vice President of
JMB Realty Corporation and portfolio manager overseeing the
investment of Seller in the Property (after having made inquiry
of Seller's third party property manager with respect to the
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement):
(a) Rent Roll. Attached as Exhibit "H-1"
and made a part hereof is a true, complete and accurate list, as
of the date thereof, of all tenant leases respecting the
Property ("Rent Roll"), and Seller has not received any written
notice of a material default under any of such tenant leases
that remains uncured. Except as disclosed in the Rent Roll, no
Tenant Lease has been modified, altered or amended in any
respect. There are no leases, tenancies or other rights of
occupancy or use for any portion of the Property other than as
set forth in the Rent Roll. Except as set forth in Exhibit "H-
2" attached hereto and made a part hereof (the "Additional
Tenant Information List"), there are no outstanding tenant
improvement or leasing commission obligations of the landlord
under the Tenant Leases. In addition, the Additional Tenant
Matter List accurately sets forth amount of any security deposit
paid by the tenant under each Tenant Lease. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall have no
obligation or liability to Buyer with respect to any of the
foregoing matters which shall be confirmed as correct in any
Tenant Estoppel Certificate which may be delivered hereunder.
(b) Litigation. There is no pending
action, litigation, condemnation or other proceeding against the
Property or against Seller with respect to the Property.
(c) Compliance. Seller has received no
written notice from any insurance company, governmental
authority or agency having jurisdiction over the Property (i)
regarding any violation of any restrictive covenant or deed
restriction affecting the Property and/or to the effect that the
Property is not in compliance with applicable laws or
ordinances, or (ii) regarding any pending or threatened
condemnation proceedings.
(d) Service Agreements. Other than those
which are cancelable on 30 days' notice, Seller has not entered
into any service agreements or contracts ("Service Agreements")
or other agreements (other than as set forth in this Agreement)
relating to the Property which will be in force on the Closing
Date, except as described in Exhibit "I" attached hereto, and
Seller has not received any written notice of any material
default thereunder that remains uncured. If Buyer requests
during the Due Diligence Period, any such Service Agreements
will be terminated at Closing; provided, however, that Buyer
shall be responsible for paying any termination fees or costs
associated therewith.
(e) Due Authority. This Agreement and all
agreements, instruments and documents herein provided to be
executed or to be caused to be executed by Seller are and on the
Closing Date will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by
and are binding upon Seller. Seller is a partnership, duly
organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of
Illinois, and is duly authorized and qualified to do all things
required of it under this Agreement. Seller has the capacity
and authority to enter into this Agreement and consummate the
transactions herein provided.
(f) Environmental Matters. Except as set
forth in the reports described in Exhibit "J" attached hereto
and made a part hereof (the "Environmental Reports"), and in
Buyer's Phase I, there has been no release of any material known
to Seller to be a "Hazardous Material" at, upon, under or within
the Property, in an amount which would, as of the date hereof,
give rise to an "Environmental Compliance Cost". The term
"Hazardous Material" shall mean asbestos, petroleum products,
and any other hazardous waste or substance which has, as of the
date hereof, been determined to be hazardous or a pollutant by
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Department of
Transportation, or any instrumentality authorized to regulate
substances in the environment which has jurisdiction over the
Property ("Environmental Agency") which substance causes the
Property (or any part thereof) to be in material violation of
any applicable environmental laws; provided, however, that the
term "Hazardous Material" shall not include (x) motor oil and
gasoline contained in or discharged from vehicles not used
primarily for the transport of motor oil or gasoline, or
(y) materials which are stored or used in the ordinary course of
a tenant's occupancy at (or the Company's, or the Company's
managing agents' operation of) the Property, and which are
stored, used, held, or disposed of in compliance with all
applicable environmental laws. The term "Environmental
Compliance Cost" means any reasonable out-of-pocket cost, fee or
expense exceeding $2,500 and incurred directly to satisfy any
requirement imposed by an Environmental Agency to bring the
Property into compliance with applicable Federal, State and
local laws and regulations directly relating to the existence on
the Property of any Hazardous Material.
(g) Loan Documents. The loan documents
described in Exhibit "K" attached hereto and made a part hereof
constitute all of the documents which relate to the Existing
Encumbrance. Seller has not received any written notice of a
material default under the Loan Documents that remains uncured.
(h) Operating Statements. The operating
statements delivered to Buyer have been prepared by or on behalf
of Seller in the ordinary course of business.
B. Representations and Warranties of Buyer. Buyer
hereby represents and warrants that this Agreement and all
agreements, instruments and documents herein provided to be
executed or to be caused to be executed by Buyer are and on the
Closing Date will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by
and are binding upon Buyer; Buyer is a limited partnership, duly
organized and validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Delaware, and is duly authorized and
qualified to do all things required of it under this Agreement;
and Buyer has the capacity and authority to enter into this
Agreement and consummate the transactions herein provided.
C. Survival. Any cause of action of a party for a
breach of the foregoing representations and warranties shall
survive until December 15, 1997, at which time such
representations and warranties (and any cause of action
resulting from a breach thereof not then in litigation) shall
terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Buyer shall have
actual knowledge as of the Closing Date that any of the
representations or warranties of Seller contained herein are
false or inaccurate or that Seller is in breach or default of
any of its obligations under this Agreement, and Buyer
nonetheless closes the transactions hereunder and acquires the
Property, then Seller shall have no liability or obligation
respecting such false or inaccurate representations or
warranties or other breach or default (and any cause of action
resulting therefrom shall terminate upon such closing
hereunder).
D. Interim Covenants of Seller. Until the Closing
Date or the sooner termination of this Agreement:
(1) Seller shall maintain the Property in the
same manner as prior hereto pursuant to its normal course of
business (such maintenance obligations not including
extraordinary capital expenditures or expenditures not incurred
in such normal course of business), subject to reasonable wear
and tear and further subject to destruction by casualty or other
events beyond the control of Seller. Seller shall maintain
current insurance coverage (or substantially equivalent
coverage) in place at the Property. Seller will not initiate or
knowingly permit (unless required by applicable law or an
existing agreement affecting the Property) any zoning
reclassification of the Property or seek any variance under
existing zoning ordinances applicable to the Property to use or
permit the use of the Property in such a manner which would
result in such use becoming a nonconforming use under applicable
zoning ordinances. Seller will not impose any restrictive
covenants on the Property or execute or file any subdivision
plat affecting the Property.
(2) Seller shall not enter into any additional
service contracts or other similar agreements without the prior
consent of Buyer, except those deemed reasonably necessary by
Seller which are cancelable on 30 days' notice without premium
or penalty.
(3) Seller shall have the right to continue to
offer the Property for lease in the same manner as prior hereto
pursuant to its normal course of business and, upon request,
shall keep Buyer reasonably informed as to the status of leasing
prior to the Closing Date. After the Effective Date (unless
Buyer shall have theretofor delivered a termination notice
hereunder), Seller shall not enter into any new leases or
material modifications of existing leases thereafter without the
consent of Buyer (which consent will not be unreasonably
withheld or materially delayed). In no event shall Seller have
any obligation to enter into any new lease or modify any
existing lease unless Buyer shall agree to pay or reimburse
Seller on the Closing Date for all tenant improvement costs and
leasing commissions incurred by Seller under or in connection
therewith (Buyer's agreement to pay or reimburse for such
amounts not to be unreasonably withheld).
(4) Subject to the terms and conditions of
paragraph 4B above, during normal business hours with 24 hours
prior notice to Seller, prior to Closing, Seller agrees to give
Buyer and its agents and representatives reasonable access to
the Property and the books and records directly relating to the
ownership, management, maintenance and operations of the
Property and all documents (other than those containing
proprietary information) in the possession or control of Seller.
9. DISPOSITION OF DEPOSIT. IF THE TRANSACTION HEREIN
PROVIDED SHALL NOT BE CLOSED BY REASON OF SELLER'S DEFAULT UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT OR THE FAILURE OF SATISFACTION OF THE CONDITIONS
DESCRIBED IN PARAGRAPH 4 HEREOF OR THE TERMINATION OF THIS
AGREEMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 6 HEREOF, AND BUYER SHALL
NOT HAVE DEFAULTED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THEN THE ESCROW DEPOSIT
SHALL BE RETURNED TO BUYER, AND NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE ANY
FURTHER OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY TO THE OTHER; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
IF THE TRANSACTIONS HEREUNDER SHALL FAIL TO CLOSE SOLELY BY
REASON OF A MATERIAL DEFAULT BY SELLER, AND BUYER SHALL HAVE
FULLY PERFORMED ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND SHALL BE READY,
WILLING AND ABLE TO CLOSE, THEN BUYER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO
EITHER (1) TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT, RECEIVE A RETURN OF THE
ESCROW DEPOSIT AND TO OBTAIN REIMBURSEMENT FROM SELLER FOR
BUYER'S ACTUAL OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES PAID TO UNAFFILIATED THIRD
PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH ITS DUE DILIGENCE REVIEWS HEREUNDER
(SUCH REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION NOT TO EXCEED $20,000 IN THE
AGGREGATE), OR (2) SPECIFICALLY ENFORCE THIS AGREEMENT (BUT NO
OTHER ACTION, FOR DAMAGES OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE PERMITTED). IN
THE EVENT THE TRANSACTION HEREIN PROVIDED SHALL NOT CLOSE FOR
ANY REASON OTHER THAN THE FAILURE OF SATISFACTION OF THE
CONDITIONS DESCRIBED IN PARAGRAPH 4 HEREOF OR THE TERMINATION OF
THIS AGREEMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH PARAGRAPH 6 HEREOF OR THE
DEFAULT OF SELLER, THEN THE ESCROW DEPOSIT SHALL BE DELIVERED TO
SELLER AS FULL COMPENSATION AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES UNDER AND IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT THE TRANSACTION
HEREIN PROVIDED SHALL CLOSE, THE ESCROW DEPOSIT SHALL BE APPLIED
AS A PARTIAL PAYMENT OF THE PURCHASE PRICE. IN CONNECTION WITH
THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES RECOGNIZE THAT SELLER WILL INCUR
EXPENSE IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS
AGREEMENT AND THAT THE PROPERTY WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE MARKET;
FURTHER, THAT IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND IMPRACTICABLE TO
ASCERTAIN THE EXTENT OF DETRIMENT TO SELLER CAUSED BY THE BREACH
BY BUYER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE FAILURE OF THE
CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT
OR THE AMOUNT OF COMPENSATION SELLER SHOULD RECEIVE AS A RESULT
OF BUYER'S BREACH OR DEFAULT. IN THE EVENT THE SALE OF THE
PROPERTY SHALL NOT BE CONSUMMATED ON ACCOUNT OF BUYER'S DEFAULT,
THEN THE RETENTION OF THE ESCROW DEPOSIT SHALL BE SELLER'S SOLE
AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT BY REASON OF SUCH
DEFAULT, SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF PARAGRAPH 9I HEREOF.

is in any way connected with any of such transactions. In the
event of a claim for broker's or finder's fee or commissions in
connection herewith, then Seller shall indemnify and defend
Buyer from the same if it shall be based upon any statement or
agreement alleged to have been made by Seller, and Buyer shall
indemnify and defend Seller from the same if it shall be based

to or in connection with the representations, warranties,
indemnifications, covenants or other obligations (whether
express or implied) of Seller under this Agreement (or any
document executed or delivered in connection herewith) shall not
exceed $750,000; provided that, the foregoing shall not limit
the liability of Seller arising from or out of Seller's
affirmative fraud in connection with the representations,
warranties, indemnifications, covenants or other obligations of
Seller under this Agreement (or any document executed or
delivered in connection herewith).
(2) No constituent partner in or agent of
Seller, nor any advisor, trustee, director, officer, employee,
beneficiary, shareholder, participant, representative or agent
of any corporation or trust that is or becomes a constituent
partner in Seller (including, but not limited to, JMB Realty
Corporation) shall have any personal liability, directly or
indirectly, under or in connection with this Agreement or any
agreement made or entered into under or pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement, or any amendment or amendments to
any of the foregoing made at any time or times, heretofore or
hereafter, and Buyer and its successors and assigns and, without
limitation, all other persons and entities, shall look solely to
Seller's assets for the payment of any claim or for any
performance, and Buyer, on behalf of itself and its successors
and assigns, hereby waives any and all such personal liability.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, neither the negative capital account of any
constituent partner in Seller (or in any other constituent
partner of Seller), nor any obligation of any constituent
partner in Seller (or in any other constituent partner of
Seller) to restore a negative capital account or to contribute
capital to Seller (or to any other constituent partner of
Seller), shall at any time be deemed to be the property or an
asset of Seller or any such other constituent partner (and
neither Buyer nor any of its successors or assigns shall have
any right to collect, enforce or proceed against or with respect
to any such negative capital account of partner's obligation to
restore or contribute).
(3) No constituent partner in or agent of Buyer,
nor any advisor, trustee, director, officer, employee,
beneficiary, shareholder, participant, representative or agent
of any corporation or trust that is or becomes a constituent
partner in Buyer shall have any personal liability, directly or
indirectly, under or in connection with this Agreement or any
agreement made or entered into under or pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement, or any amendment or amendments to
any of the foregoing made at any time or times, heretofore or
hereafter, and Seller and its successors and assigns and,
without limitation, all other persons and entities, shall look
solely to Buyer's assets for the payment of any claim or for any
performance, and Seller, on behalf of itself and its successors
and assigns, hereby waives any and all such personal liability.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, neither the negative capital account of any
constituent partner in Buyer (or in any other constituent
partner of Buyer), nor any obligation of any constituent partner
in Buyer (or in any other constituent partner of Buyer) to
restore a negative capital account or to contribute capital to
Buyer (or to any other constituent partner of Buyer), shall at
any time be deemed to be the property or an asset of Buyer or
any such other constituent partner (and neither Seller nor any
of its successors or assigns shall have any right to collect,
enforce or proceed against or with respect to any such negative
capital account of partner's obligation to restore or
contribute).
(4) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if Seller
or its successor-in-interest shall fail to retain reserves of at

during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on
December 15, 1997 (the "Survival Period"), Seller or its
successor-in-interest shall utilize such reserves for any
purpose other than the payment of claims, expenses, liabilities
or attorneys' fees of Seller or such successor-in-interest
(including any amounts incurred in connection with resolving or
defending any claim of liability hereunder) with respect to a
breach or alleged breach of the representations, warranties,
indemnifications, covenants or other obligations (whether
express or implied) of Seller under this Agreement (or any
document executed or delivered in connection herewith), or is
otherwise related to, connected with or concerns the Property in
any manner (collectively, the "Specified Liabilities"), then
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer
may, during the Survival Period, look to the assets of JMB
Realty Corporation, as the general partner of Seller, for the
payment of any Specified Liabilities; provided, however, the
aggregate liability of JMB Realty Corporation in connection
therewith shall not exceed $750,000 in the aggregate and shall
be further limited as follows:
(x) with respect to the initial reserve amount,
such liability shall be limited to the lesser of the amount by
which $850,000 exceeds the amount actually reserved by Seller or
its successor-in-interest in closing hereunder, and $750,000; or
(y) during the Survival Period, such liability
shall be limited to the lesser of the amount of such reserves
which, during the Survival Period, are utilized for purposes
other than the payment of the Specified Liabilities, and
$750,000.

(a) Purchaser shall within two (2) business days following
the Effective Date deliver to Lawyer's Title Insurance
Corporation-Memphis Branch Office ("Title Company") the sum of
NINETY THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($90,000.00) ("Escrow
Deposit") in lawful funds of the United States of America. If
Purchaser elects in writing not to proceed with this Transaction
prior to the conclusion of the Inspection Period or elects to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to the express provisions
hereof, then Title Company shall refund to Purchaser the Escrow
Deposit and all interest accrued thereon. Unless this Agreement
has been terminated by Purchaser as above provided, Purchaser
shall within two (2) business days following expiration of the
Inspection Date deliver to Title Company the sum of TWO HUNDRED
SIXTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($260,000.00) (the "Additional
Escrow Deposit"). If Purchaser shall fail to terminate this

shall become non-refundable to Purchaser except in the case:
(i) Seller's default; (ii) the non-satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in Section ; or (iii) except as otherwise
set forth herein, but shall be credited toward the Purchase
Price upon Closing. Title Company is hereby instructed to
invest the Escrow Deposit and, if received, the Additional
Escrow Deposit in an FDIC insured interest bearing account in
the name of Purchaser. Purchaser's taxpayer identification
number is 72-1344324. Purchaser and Seller hereby acknowledge
and agree that all accrued interest on the Escrow Deposit and
Additional Escrow Deposit shall be credited to Purchaser,
provided, however, in the event that this transaction does not
Close due to an event of default by Purchaser and through no
event of default of Seller unless Seller's performance is
excused due to a prior default of Purchaser, the Escrow Deposit,
the Additional Escrow Deposit and all accrued interest thereon
shall be delivered to Seller as herein set forth.
(b) The sole responsibility of Title Company shall be to
hold and disburse the Escrow Deposit, the Additional Escrow
Deposit and accrued interest in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and, if a dispute shall arise with respect to the
disposition of such funds, the Title Company may continue to
hold such funds until receipt of written instructions
acknowledged and agreed to by Purchaser and Seller or may
deposit such funds with the Circuit Court of Shelby County,
Tennessee and interplead the Purchaser and Seller in connection
therewith.
1.1 Purchase Price. Seller agrees to sell, and
Purchaser agrees to purchase, the Project for a total purchase
price equal to THIRTY-SIX MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS
($36,000,000.00) ("Purchase Price"), plus or minus prorations
and other adjustments provided by this Agreement, upon and in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Subject to the provisions hereof. At Buyer's sole option, with
the concurrence of Lender (as defined below) payment of a
portion of the Purchase Price may be evidenced by assumption of
the "Existing Indebtedness" (as defined below), such payment
shall equal the amount of the outstanding principal balance of
the existing note. The balance of the Purchase Price, plus or
minus prorations, shall be paid in immediately available funds
at Closing.
Subject to Purchaser's review of all loan documents
relating to the Existing Indebtedness and of any required
assumption documents, Purchaser may at its election assume
Seller's obligations under the Loan Documents at Closing.
Purchaser agrees to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with
Lender in the assumption of the Existing Indebtedness. Seller
acknowledges that Purchaser retains the right to request certain
reasonable modifications and/or alterations to the Loan
Documents (and to any assumption documents required by Lender)
prior to its assumption thereof. In the event Lender is
unwilling to allow Purchaser to assume the Existing Indebtedness
on terms consistent with this Agreement, then Purchaser shall
pay the Purchase Price in immediately available funds at
Closing.
1.1 Independent Consideration. Seller and Purchaser
acknowledge and agree that Ten Thousand and No/100 ($10,000.00)
of the Escrow Deposit shall be paid to Seller if this Agreement
is terminated for any reason (the "Independent Contract
Consideration") in lawful funds of the United States of America.

Contract Consideration has been bargained for and agreed to as
additional consideration for Seller's execution and delivery of
this Agreement. At Closing (defined below) the Independent
Contract Consideration shall be applied to the Purchase Price.
In the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, Seller
shall be entitled to the Independent Contract Consideration.

ownership of such Project) or prior to the month during which
the Closing takes place shall remain the property of Seller, and
Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts (not to include
commencing any eviction action or other litigation to collect

collected as compared to the actual expenses associated

Date.

such date to the utility companies involved or to Purchaser in
the event Purchaser is responsible for the payment of such
utility charges. All utility deposits of Seller shall belong to
Seller.
(a) Contract Charges. Charges with respect to Contracts
(as defined below) transferred and assigned to Purchaser shall
be prorated as of the Closing Date, including, without

herein, any and all expenses and payables relating to the
operation, management or ownership of the Project arising or
accruing prior to the Closing Date in the ordinary course of
business are the responsibility of the Seller and will be paid
by Seller promptly upon receipt of billing therefor.
(h) Leasing Costs. Seller shall be responsible for
paying all costs, including, without limitation, tenant
improvements and leasing commissions, associated with any
existing or new lease executed by Seller prior to the

the Project, Purchaser shall be responsible for paying the
costs, including without limitation, tenant improvements
and leasing commissions, associated with all leases or any
lease renewal, expansion or other modification executed
after the Inspection Period which have been approved by
Purchaser. If, for any reason, Purchaser does not purchase
the Project, Purchaser shall not be responsible or liable
to any entity with respect to any such costs or leasing
commissions.
The agreements with respect to prorations in this Section

TITLE MATTERS
1.1 Title Report/Commitment for Title Insurance. Seller
hereby instructs Title Company to prepare and deliver to
Purchaser, Seller and the surveyor described below, at Seller's
expense, within five business (5) days after the Effective Date
a commitment to issue an owner's title insurance policy to be
issued by a title company reasonably acceptable to Purchaser
(the "Title Commitment") covering the Real Property, showing all
matters affecting title to the Real Property and binding Title
Company to issue to Purchaser at Closing an owner's policy of
title insurance on an ALTA (1970 form) Extended Form of policy
in the full amount of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 4.4
hereof. Seller and Purchaser further instruct Title Company to
deliver to such parties copies of all instruments referenced in
Schedule B, Section II of the Title Commitment.
1.1 Survey. Seller shall provide Purchaser with a copy
of all existing surveys of the Project which are in Seller's
possession or control. Within five (5) days after the Effective
Date, Purchaser shall order an update to Seller's existing
survey and shall use reasonable efforts to cause such survey to
be delivered to Purchaser and Title Company within ten (10)
business days after the Effective Date. Such survey shall be a
currently dated ALTA/ASCM land title survey of the Land and of
the Improvements situated thereon (the "Survey"), prepared by a
surveyor licensed by the State of Tennessee and certified to
Purchaser and Title Company by such surveyors in conformity to
the Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2(a). In addition
to the requirements set forth in attached Exhibit 4.2(b), the
Survey shall reflect the total area of the Real Property, the
location of all improvements, recorded easements and
encroachments, if any, located thereon and all building and set
back lines and other matters of record with respect thereto.
Said Survey shall also certify that the Land is not in an area
identified by FEMA as having special flood or mudslide hazards
which require flood insurance under the Flood Insurance Act of
1968. Seller shall provide at Closing a certificate to
Purchaser and Title Company if requested, that there have been
no improvements made to the Real Property since the date of the
Survey which would materially alter the depictions on the
Survey.
1.1 Title Defects. Within seven (7) days after receipt
of the later of the Title Commitment and the Survey, Purchaser
shall notify Seller of any title matters to which Purchaser
objects (the "Title Defects") ("Purchaser's Notice"). Any
matter disclosed in a Title Commitment or Survey and not
objected to by Purchaser or subsequently waived by Purchaser
shall be deemed a permitted exception ("Permitted Exception").
Seller shall notify Purchaser of Seller's decision not to cure
any Title Defect within three (3) days after receipt of
Purchaser's Notice; provided, however, Seller shall remove
monetary liens relating to borrowed funds or other liens
securing indebtedness of an ascertainable amount and mechanic or
materialmen's liens, if any, except for the Existing
Indebtedness if assumed by Purchaser. Seller's failure to
respond shall be deemed a decision by Seller not to cure any
Title Defect except for the Existing Indebtedness if assumed by
Purchaser. Within three (3) days of Seller's election not to
cure certain Title Defects, Purchaser may elect to waive such
Title Defects or terminate this Agreement in which event
Purchaser shall receive a return of the Escrow Deposit, the
Additional Escrow Deposit, if any, and all interest accrued
thereon. Purchaser's failure to respond shall be deemed a
decision by Purchaser to waive the Title Defects to which Seller
decides not to cure. If the Title Defects, that Seller elected
to cure, are not cured by Seller or waived by Purchaser on or
before the Closing Date then Purchaser may (i) elect to waive
the uncured Title Defects, or (ii) terminate this Agreement in
which event Purchaser shall receive a return of the Escrow
Deposit, the Additional Escrow Deposit, if any, and all interest
accrued thereon.
1.1 Title Insurance. At Closing, Seller and Purchaser
shall instruct Title Company to issue a final update to the
Title Commitment in which the "GAP" exception has been deleted,
binding Title Company to issue to Purchaser an owner policy of
title insurance (the "Title Policy") covering the Real Property
in the full amount of the Purchase Price. The Title Policy
shall be an ALTA Form 1970-B owner's policy of extended coverage
title insurance containing such endorsements as may be
reasonably requested by Purchaser and agreed to by Title Company
subject only to: (a) current non-delinquent real estate taxes
and assessments; (b) matters set forth in the Title Commitment
and approved or waived by Purchaser; (c) any other matters
approved in writing by Purchaser; (d) title exceptions caused by
acts or omissions of Purchaser; and (e) matters excepted or
excluded from coverage by the printed terms of the title
insurance policy standard form (except for survey (if requested
by Purchaser) and mechanics and materialmen's lien exceptions
which shall be deleted). Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts
to reach agreement with Title Company regarding any applicable
endorsements during the Inspection Period.
1 ARTICLE

Effective Date, copies of all schedules and documents referred

interest thereon, or (ii) it may proceed with this transaction
and receive Seller's insurance proceeds, if any, for such
damage, plus payment from Seller of the amount of the applicable
insurance deductible relating thereto not to exceed the actual
repair cost. In such event, Seller shall execute all documents
reasonably requested by Purchaser to assign Seller's rights and
interest to such insurance proceeds.

to or greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), and

or developed by Purchaser ("Confidential Information"), is
confidential and shall not be disclosed to any other person
except those assisting Purchaser with this Transaction, or
Purchaser's lender, if any, except as required by law. The
provisions of the foregoing sentence shall not apply to any
information which is otherwise available to the public or which
has been obtained from sources that are not subject to a similar
confidentiality restriction or to disclosures as required by
law. Further, Purchaser agrees not to use any Confidential
Information for any purpose other than to determine whether to
proceed with the Transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

discharge of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same is in
writing and signed by the party against whom the enforcement
thereof is or may be sought. No waiver of a breach of any of

omissions by either party to take any action on account of such
default if such default persists or is repeated, and no express
waiver shall affect a default other than as specified in such

proceedings for any relief against the other party arising out
of this Agreement, the losing party shall pay the prevailing
party's reasonable attorneys' fees.

agreements other than those expressed herein.
