ITEM 2. DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
- ------  ---------------------

1605 Main Street Associates, a joint venture in which First Capital
Institutional Real Estate, Ltd. - 3, (the "Registrant") owns a 50% interest,
sold its interest in the real property commonly known as Ellis Building
("Ellis"), located in Sarasota, Florida to Tricony Sarasota LTD., a Florida
Limited Partnership (the "Purchaser").

The closing of this transaction occurred on August 21, 1998. Ellis was sold for
$13,875,000 in cash to an unrelated party pursuant to arm's-length negotiations.
The Registrant's share of Sale Proceeds approximated $6,675,000, which was net
of actual and estimated closing expenses. For the quarter ending September 30,
1998, the Registrant will record a net gain for financial reporting purposes of
approximately $2,950,000 from this transaction. The Registrant will distribute
substantially all of the Sale Proceeds on February 28, 1999 to Limited Partners

          B.  Survey.  Seller has, prior to the date of this Agreement,
     delivered to Purchaser an existing survey of the Real Property prepared by
     Smally, Wellford & Nalven, Inc. dated April 8, 1995 and last revised on
     March 4, 1986 (the "Existing Survey"). Purchaser shall, within one (1) day
     after the date of this Agreement, order a survey of the Real Property (the
     "Survey"). Upon Purchaser's receipt of the Survey, Purchaser shall promptly
     deliver a copy of the Survey to Seller and the Title Insurer.

          C.  Review of Title Commitment and Survey.  Purchaser acknowledges
     that it has, prior to the date of this Agreement, had an opportunity to
     review the Title Commitment, the underlying documents disclosed thereby and
     the Existing Survey. If the Survey discloses exceptions to title other than
     the Permitted Exceptions, then Purchaser shall have until 5:00 p.m.
     (Chicago, Illinois time) on the tenth (10th) day after the date of its
     receipt of the Survey (but in no event later than the twenty-fifth (25th)
     day after the date of this Agreement) within which to notify Seller of any
     such exceptions to title to which Purchaser objects. If any additional
     exceptions to title arise between the date of the Title Commitment, the
     Survey and the Closing, Purchaser shall have five (5) days after its
     receipt of notice of same within which to notify Seller of any such
     exception to title to which Purchaser objects. Any such exceptions to title
     not

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
     objected to by Purchaser as aforesaid shall become Permitted Exceptions. If
     Purchaser objects to any such exceptions to title, Seller shall have until
     Closing (but in any event at least fifteen [15] days after it receives
     notice of Purchaser's objection(s)) to remove such exceptions to title,
     which removal may be accomplished by waiver or endorsement by the Title
     Insurer. If Seller fails to remove any such exceptions to title as
     aforesaid, Purchaser may, as its sole and exclusive remedy, terminate this
     Agreement and obtain a return of the Earnest Money. If Purchaser does not
     elect to terminate this Agreement, Purchaser shall consummate the Closing
     and accept title to the Property subject to all such exceptions to title
     (in which event, all such exceptions to title shall be deemed "Permitted
     Exceptions"). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3(C) to the
     contrary, Seller shall be obligated, at Closing, to cause the Title Insurer
     to remove (by waiver or endorsement) any "Unpermitted Exceptions" (as
     hereinafter defined) that are not Permitted Exceptions. For purposes of
     this Agreement, the term "Unpermitted Exceptions" shall be defined to mean
     mortgages and deeds of trust granted by Seller and mechanic's liens with
     respect to work contracted for by Seller or its authorized agents, provided
     that Seller has received written notice of such mechanic's lien prior to
     Closing and the cost to remove such mechanic's liens as aforesaid does not
     exceed Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) in the aggregate.

                         term of the particular New Lease and, in the event that

                    (g)  assignable license and permit fees;

                    (h)  rental and other amounts paid or payable under the
                         Ground Lease; and

                    (i)  other similar items of income and expenses of
                         operation.

               (ii)   Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4(C)
                      but subject to Sections 4(C)(iii) and 4(C)(iv) below,
                      Seller shall, upon Closing, be entitled to retain
                      Operating Expense Reimbursements paid by tenants under the
                      Leases as of the Closing.

               (iii)  As soon as practical after Closing, but in no event later
                      than April 30, 1999, Seller and Purchaser shall, with
                      respect to any such amounts prorated or adjusted at
                      Closing pursuant to Section 4(C)(i) above based on
                      estimates or formulae, as applicable (other than real
                      estate and personal property taxes and assessments, which
                      shall be reprorated in accordance with Section 4(C)(iv)
                      below), jointly determine and reapportion such amounts in
                      accordance with Section 4(C)(i) above upon determination
                      of the actual costs or expenses with respect thereto. In
                      the event that the amount credited to Purchaser by Seller
                      at Closing exceeds the amount of the credit that Purchaser
                      should have received had such actual amounts been
                      available at Closing, Purchaser shall promptly remit such
                      excess amount to Seller. In the event that the amount of
                      Operating Expense Reimbursements retained by Seller at
                      Closing is less than the amount of Operating Expense
                      Reimbursements to which Seller is entitled after
                      calculation of actual Operating Expenses under this
                      Section 4(C), Purchaser shall (x) to the extent such
                      amounts have already been collected by Purchaser from the
                      tenants, promptly remit such amounts to Seller, and (y) to
                      the extent such amounts have not yet been collected from
                      tenants, Purchaser shall promptly bill the tenants for
                      such amounts, promptly provide Seller with copies of such
                      bills upon issuance, diligently pursue collection thereof
                      and, promptly upon receipt thereof, pay such amounts to
                      Seller. In the event that: (1) the amount credited to
                      Seller by Purchaser at Closing exceeds the amount of the
                      credit that

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
                      Seller should have received at Closing had the actual
                      amount of such Operating Expenses been available at
                      Closing; and/or (2) the amount of the Operating Expense
                      Reimbursements retained by Seller at Closing with respect
                      to such actual amount Operating Expenses exceeds the
                      amount of the Operating Expense Reimbursements that Seller
                      should have retained at Closing had such actual amounts
                      been available at Closing and a portion of such excess
                      amounts are refundable to tenants under any of the Leases,
                      Seller shall, at its option, either: (A) promptly remit
                      such excess amounts to the particular tenants entitled to
                      refund of such amounts, or (B) remit such excess amounts
                      to Purchaser and Purchaser shall be thereafter obligated
                      to promptly remit such portion to the particular tenants
                      in question (and Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and
                      hold Seller, its beneficiaries, their partners, and their
                      respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and
                      each of them, harmless from and against any losses,
                      claims, damages and liabilities [including, without
                      limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses
                      incurred in connection therewith] arising out of or
                      resulting from Purchaser's failure to remit such amounts
                      to the tenants in accordance with this Section 4(C)(iii)
                      and Section 4(C)(iv) below). In addition, in the event
                      that any of the Leases require that the tenants thereunder
                      receive a reconciliation (and bill, in the event that
                      tenant owes additional amounts under their Lease) with
                      respect to Operating Expense Reimbursements prior to May
                      1, 1999, then Seller shall, not less than twenty (20) days
                      prior to the date that such reconciliation (and bill, if
                      applicable) is to be delivered to the tenant under the
                      terms of the applicable Lease, provide Purchaser with the
                      necessary information to provide reconciliations (and
                      bills, if applicable) to such tenants with respect to the
                      period prior to Closing. Seller shall only be obligated to
                      provide such information with respect to those Leases set
                      forth in a written instrument received from Purchaser
                      within five (5) days from the date of this Agreement and
                      only if such leases require that such reconciliations be
                      provided prior to May 1, 1999.

               (iv)   Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to reprorate real estate
                      and personal property taxes (which were approximated at
                      Closing pursuant to Section 4(C)(i)(a) above based on the
                      most recent ascertainable tax bills) and the Operating
                      Expense Reimbursements received from tenants with respect
                      to such taxes upon issuance of the final real estate and
                      personal property tax bills for the tax year(s) in which
                      the Closing occurs. If, after such reproration, the amount
                      credited to Purchaser by Seller at Closing exceeds the
                      amount of the credit that Purchaser should have received
                      had such actual amounts been available at Closing,
                      Purchaser shall promptly remit such excess amount to
                      Seller. If, after such reproration: (y) the amount
                      credited to Seller by Purchaser at Closing with respect to
                      such taxes exceeds the amount of the credit that Seller
                      should have received at Closing had such actual amounts
                      been available at Closing; and/or (z) the amount of the
                      Operating Expense Reimbursements retained by Seller at
                      Closing with respect to such taxes exceed the amount of
                      the Operating Expense Reimbursements that Seller should
                      have retained at Closing with respect to such taxes had
                      the actual amount of such taxes been available at Closing,
                      then: (I) Seller shall promptly remit the portion of such
                      excess amounts that are attributable to real estate taxes
                      paid by

                                       9

                      Purchaser that are not reimbursable to Purchaser by
                      tenants under the Leases, and (II) if any portion of such
                      excess amounts are refundable to tenants under any of the
                      Leases, Seller shall, at its option, either: (a) promptly
                      remit such excess amounts to the particular tenants
                      entitled to refund of such amounts, or (b) remit such
                      excess amounts to Purchaser and Purchaser shall be
                      thereafter obligated to promptly remit such portion to the
                      particular tenants entitled thereto. Notwithstanding
                      anything in this Section 4(C)(iv) to the contrary, in the
                      event Purchaser, subsequent to Closing, commences a real
                      estate tax appeal for the tax year(s) attributable to the
                      year of Closing and such appeal results in a reduction in
                      the amount of real estate taxes payable for such tax
                      year(s), then upon the final ascertainment of such
                      reduction, Purchaser and Seller shall reprorate such real
                      estate taxes to account for such reduction in the manner
                      provided above in this Section 4(C)(iv); provided,
                      however, that nothing in this Section 4(C)(iv) shall
                      obligate Purchaser or Seller to commence any such appeal.

               (v)    If Seller has not received all Past Due Rents or other
                      amounts owed to it by tenants within sixty (60) days after
                      the Closing Date, Seller at its sole cost and expense,
                      shall be entitled at any time within the twelve (12) month
                      period after such sixty (60) day period (with respect to
                      Past Due Rents) or within the twelve (12) month period
                      after such other amounts are due (with respect to amounts
                      other than Past Due Rents), to commence such actions or
                      proceedings not affecting possession or enforcing
                      landlord's liens or resulting in termination of the Lease
                      in question as Seller shall desire to collect any such
                      Past Due Rents or other amounts, and Purchaser shall
                      cooperate with Seller in any such action.

               (vi)   For purposes of this Section 4(C), the amount of any
                      expense credited by one party to the other shall be deemed
                      an expense paid by that party. The terms and provisions of
                      this Section 4(C) shall survive Closing and the delivery
                      of the Deed.

          D.  Transaction Costs.  Whether or not the Closing occurs: (A) Seller
     shall be responsible for and pay (i) the minimum rate promulgated by the
     State of Florida for the owner's title insurance policy (the "Base
     Premium") to be issued to Purchaser at Closing in accordance with the
     provisions of the marked-up title commitment described in Section 3(A)
     above, (ii) the Florida documentary stamps (the "Transfer Taxes") owed in
     connection with the Deed (and Seller and Purchaser shall timely execute and
     deliver such forms and returns as are necessary in connection therewith),
     (iii) one-half of Escrowee's standard escrow fees (the "Escrow Fees"), if
     any, (iv) all recording charges for recording any releases or reconveyances
     of Seller's existing mortgage financing, and (v) the fees and costs of its
     attorneys and advisors; and (B) Purchaser shall be responsible for and pay
     (i) any premiums, cost and other expenses charged by the Title Insurer in
     connection with the issuance at Closing of an owner's title insurance
     policy (including any and all endorsements) over and above the Base Premium
     to be paid by Seller under sub-clause (A)(i) of this Section 4(D), (ii) the
     cost of the Survey, (iii) one-half of the Escrow Fees, if any, (iv) all
     recording charges other than charges for recording any releases or
     reconveyances of Seller's existing mortgage financing, and (v) the fees and
     costs of its attorneys and advisors.

                                       10

          E.  Possession.  Upon Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser
     possession of the Property, subject to such matters as are permitted by or
     pursuant to this Agreement.

     5.  CASUALTY LOSS AND CONDEMNATION.  If, prior to Closing, the Property or
any part thereof shall be taken or condemned, a suit filed to take or condemn
all or a portion of the Property, or the Property or any portion thereof is
destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, Seller shall promptly so notify
Purchaser.  In such event, provided that either: (i) the reasonable cost to
restore the Property due to such damage or destruction is greater than One
Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) (a "Material Casualty"), or (ii) any
material portion of the building located on the Property is designated to be or
is taken or condemned (a "Material Condemnation"), then Purchaser shall have the
option to terminate this Agreement by delivery of its written termination notice
to Seller within fifteen (15) days after Seller's delivery to Purchaser of its
notice of a Material Condemnation or the occurrence of a Material Casualty.  If
(a) the aforementioned casualty is not a Material Casualty, (b) the
aforementioned taking or condemnation is not a Material Condemnation, or (c)
Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the provisions
of the preceding sentence (time being of the essence with respect to any such
election), then Seller and Purchaser shall consummate the transaction
contemplated by this Agreement without abatement of the Purchase Price (except
that Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount
equal to any deductible amount under Seller's casualty insurance payable with
respect to the Property) and Purchaser shall be entitled to approve the terms of
any casualty insurance settlement, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed, and to receive at Closing the taking, condemnation or casualty
insurance proceeds (or an assignment of the right to such proceeds) (less any
amounts applied against costs incurred or income lost by Seller as a result of
such occurrence) and Seller shall, at Closing, execute and deliver to Purchaser
all customary proofs of loss, assignments of claims and other similar items.  If
Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 5 and Purchaser is not in default under this Agreement, the Earnest
Money shall be returned to Purchaser by the Escrowee, in which event this
Agreement shall, without further action of the parties, become null and void and
neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit Seller's recourse against
Purchaser under Sections 6 and 11(G) below and under the "Confidentiality
Agreement" (as hereinafter defined).

     6.  BROKERAGE.  Seller, pursuant to a separate written agreement (the
"Broker Agreement"), is obligated to pay upon Closing (but not otherwise) a
brokerage commission to Cushman & Wakefield of Florida, Inc. ("Broker") for
services rendered in connection with the sale and purchase of the Property.
Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any and all
claims of Broker related to Seller's agreement under the Broker Agreement to pay
Broker a commission in connection with the purchase and sale of the Property,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred
by Purchaser in connection with such claim.  Purchaser represents and warrants
to Seller that Purchaser does not have any agreement with any broker or finder
in connection with the Property.  Seller and Purchaser shall each indemnify and
hold the other harmless from and against any and all claims of all brokers and
finders (other than a claim by Broker against Seller of the type described in
the preceding sentence, which claim Seller shall be obligated to indemnify
Purchaser against in accordance with the preceding sentence) claiming by,
through or under the indemnifying party and in any way related to the sale and
purchase of the Property, this Agreement or otherwise, including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by the indemnified
party in connection with such claim.

     7.  DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.

          A.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
     Agreement, if (i) Seller fails to perform in accordance with the terms of
     this Agreement, (ii) Purchaser is not 

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
     otherwise in default hereunder, and (iii) the Closing does not occur, then,
     as Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy hereunder and at Purchaser's
     option, either (x) the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser, in
     which event this Agreement shall be null and void, and neither party shall
     have any rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (y) upon notice to
     Seller not less than ten (10) days after Purchaser becomes aware of such
     failure, and provided an action is filed within thirty (30) days
     thereafter, Purchaser may seek specific performance of this Agreement, but
     not damages. Purchaser's failure to seek specific performance as aforesaid
     shall constitute its election to proceed under clause (x) above.

          B.  If Purchaser fails to perform in accordance with the terms of this
     Agreement, the Earnest Money may be retained by Seller as liquidated and
     agreed upon damages and as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy with respect
     thereto; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit Seller's
     recourse against Purchaser under Section 6 above, Section 11(G) below and
     under the Confidentiality Agreement.  PURCHASER AND SELLER ACKNOWLEDGE AND
     AGREE THAT (1) THE EARNEST MONEY IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF AND BEARS A
     REASONABLE RELATIONSHIP TO THE DAMAGES THAT WOULD BE SUFFERED AND COSTS
     INCURRED BY SELLER AS A RESULT OF HAVING WITHDRAWN THE PROPERTY FROM SALE
     AND THE FAILURE OF CLOSING TO OCCUR DUE TO A DEFAULT OF PURCHASER UNDER
     THIS AGREEMENT; (2) THE ACTUAL DAMAGES SUFFERED AND COSTS INCURRED BY
     SELLER AS A RESULT OF SUCH WITHDRAWAL AND FAILURE TO CLOSE DUE TO A DEFAULT
     OF PURCHASER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND
     IMPRACTICAL TO DETERMINE; (3) PURCHASER SEEKS TO LIMIT ITS LIABILITY UNDER
     THIS AGREEMENT TO THE AMOUNT OF THE EARNEST MONEY IN THE EVENT THIS
     AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED AND THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT
     DOES NOT CLOSE DUE TO A DEFAULT OF PURCHASER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT; AND (4)
     THE EARNEST MONEY SHALL BE AND CONSTITUTE VALID LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.


     PURCHASER INITIALS:                                 SELLER INITIALS:


     __________________                                  ___________________


          C.  After Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall, subject to the terms
     and conditions of this Agreement, have such rights and remedies as are
     available at law or in equity, except that neither Seller nor Purchaser
     shall be entitled to recover from the other consequential or special
     damages.

     8.  CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

          A.  Subject to Section 11(G) below and the provisions of that certain
     confidentiality letter agreement dated February 25, 1998 from Cushman &
     Wakefield of Florida Inc., on behalf of Seller, to Purchaser, as amended by
     that certain modification letter agreement attached to and made a part of
     the Letter of Intent (such letter agreement, as so amended, is herein
     called the "Confidentiality Agreement"), Purchaser acknowledges that it
     has, prior to the date hereof, had an opportunity to inspect the Property,
     review the Leases, the Service Contracts, all "Disclosures" (as hereinafter
     defined) provided by Seller and make such other inquiries and
     investigations and obtain such reports and analyses (except for a third
     party Phase I environmental report and structural engineering report
     (collectively, the "Reports") as provided below) it deemed adequate

                                       12
<PAGE>
 
     in connection with its decision to purchase the Property, and, as a result
     thereof, Purchaser agrees that, except as specifically set forth in this
     Agreement, it shall purchase the Property in its "AS IS, WHERE IS"
     condition, subject to ordinary wear and tear and as more particularly
     provided in Section 11(H) below.  Subject to Section 11(G) below and the
     Confidentiality Agreement, Purchaser shall continue to have reasonable
     access to the Property in order to have the Reports prepared and to prepare
     to acquire and take over operation of the Property upon Closing.
     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller acknowledges that
     the Reports are for informational purposes only and that any matters
     disclosed by the Reports or otherwise discovered during Seller's limited
     inspection of the Property as provided in the preceding sentence shall not
     be subject to objection by Purchaser or otherwise a condition to Closing or
     Purchaser's obligations hereunder, unless expressly provided to the
     contrary elsewhere in this Agreement.

          B.  Ground Lessor Estoppel Certificates.

               1.  Seller shall, within five (5) days after the date of this
          Agreement, send ground lessor estoppel certificates (individually, a
          "Ground Lessor Estoppel Certificate" and collectively, the "Ground
          Lessor Estoppel Certificates") to the following representatives of the
          lessors under the Ground Lease (collectively hereinafter referred to
          as the "Ground Lessors"): (i) Wayne Derr of NationsBank N.A., who
          represents (a) NationsBank N.A., as trustee under the Sam Fleischer
          Trust Agreement dated October 21, 1994, and (b) Mrs. Esther Fleischer
          Van Tuin, (together the parties identified in clauses (a) and (b) hold
          a one-third interest as lessor under the Ground Lease), (ii) Ken
          Henderson, who represents the Garrison Trust (holder of a one-third
          interest as lessor under the Ground Lease), and (iii) David Band, who
          represents Ann Meade Braly, both individually and as trustee under the
          Braly Trust (together, holders of a one-third interest as lessor under
          the Ground Lease).  The Ground Lessor Estoppel Certificates sent to
          such parties by Seller shall be in the form of EXHIBIT W attached
          hereto (the "Form Ground Lessor Estoppel Certificate").  It shall be a
          condition to Seller's obligation to sell the Property pursuant to this
          Agreement that Seller obtain (and provide copies to Purchaser at
          Closing) Ground Lessor Estoppel Certificates executed by each of the
          Ground Lessors.

               2.  Seller shall use reasonable efforts prior to Closing to
          obtain Ground Lessor Estoppel Certificates from all Ground Lessors (it
          being understood that such efforts shall in no way include Seller
          incurring any additional liabilities or expending any sum of money
          [other than fees of its counsel, if any, and the cost of any faxing,
          postage, messenger services and overnight courier services]).  In the
          event that Seller is unable to obtain the Ground Lessor Estoppel
          Certificates by the Closing, Seller may either (a) consummate the
          Closing (and deliver copies of any Ground Lessor Estoppel Certificates
          to Purchaser at Closing), or (b) terminate this Agreement by giving
          written notice thereof to Purchaser, at which time this Agreement
          shall be null and void, the Escrowee shall promptly return the Earnest
          Money to Purchaser and thereafter neither Seller nor Purchaser shall
          have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, provided,
          however, that the foregoing shall not limit Seller's recourse against
          Purchaser under Section 6 above and Section 11(G) below and under the
          Confidentiality Agreement).

     9.  ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES.

          A.  Seller shall, within ten (10) days after the date of this
     Agreement, send estoppel certificates (individually, an "Estoppel
     Certificate" and collectively, the "Estoppel Certificates")

                                       13
<PAGE>
 
     to each tenant occupying space at the Property as of the date of this
     Agreement. The Estoppel Certificates sent to tenants by Seller shall be in
     the form of EXHIBIT G attached hereto (the "Form Tenant Estoppel
     Certificate").

          B.  It shall be a condition precedent to Purchaser's obligation to
     purchase the Property pursuant to this Agreement that Seller provide to
     Purchaser, at Closing, Estoppel Certificates, dated as of a date after the
     date of this Agreement, executed by tenants occupying not less than
     seventy-five percent (75%) of the net rentable square footage of space at
     the Property (exclusive of space currently occupied by Seller or "EOPMC"
     [defined below] as a leasing and management office) as of the Closing Date,
     specifically including within such seventy-five percent (75%) the
     "Designated Tenants" (as hereinafter defined) (collectively, the "Required
     Tenants").  For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Designated Tenants"
     shall mean the tenants set forth on EXHIBIT T attached hereto and the term
     "Designated Tenant" shall mean any one of such Designated Tenants.  The
     Estoppel Certificates executed by tenants shall be in substantially the
     form of the Form Tenant Estoppel Certificate, except that an Estoppel
     Certificate shall be deemed an acceptable Estoppel Certificate for purposes
     of this Section 9 if paragraph 14 of the Form Tenant Estoppel Certificate
     pertaining to Purchaser's first mortgage lender is stricken or deleted
     and/or if it contains the qualification by the tenant of any statement as
     being to the best of its knowledge or as being subject to any similar
     qualification (the aforesaid acceptable Estoppel Certificates to be
     delivered are collectively referred to as the "Required Estoppel
     Certificates").  Purchaser acknowledges that, as noted above, the space
     occupied by Equity Office Properties Management Corp., a Delaware
     corporation ("EOPMC"), Seller's on-site manager, shall not be included in
     the seventy-five percent (75%) described above, as EOPMC will vacate the
     Property, effective as of Closing.

          C.  Seller shall use reasonable efforts prior to Closing to obtain
     Estoppel Certificates from all tenants other than EOPMC (it being
     understood that such efforts shall in no way include Seller incurring any
     additional liabilities or expending any sum of money [other than fees of
     its counsel, if any, and the cost of any faxing, postage, messenger
     services and overnight courier services]).  In the event that Seller is
     unable to provide the Required Estoppel Certificates to Purchaser at the
     Closing, Seller shall be obligated to execute and deliver to Purchaser
     certificates (individually, a "Seller Estoppel Certificate", and,
     collectively, the "Seller Estoppel Certificates") substantially in the same
     form as the certificate attached hereto as EXHIBIT U (the "Form Seller
     Estoppel Certificate") covering the Designated Tenants with respect to whom
     have not executed and delivered Estoppel Certificates, provided that
     Purchaser shall not be required to accept such Seller Estoppel Certificate
     with respect to such Designated Tenants (and, in the event that Purchaser
     does not accept such Seller Estoppel Certificates, this Agreement shall be
     null and void, the Escrowee shall promptly return the Earnest Money to
     Purchaser and thereafter neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any
     further rights or obligations under this Agreement, provided, however, that
     the foregoing shall not limit Seller's recourse against Purchaser under
     Section 6 above and Section 11(G) below and under the Confidentiality
     Agreement).  In the event that Seller is unable to provide Required
     Estoppel Certificates to Purchaser at Closing with respect to any of the
     Required Tenants other than the Designated Tenants, Seller shall be
     obligated to execute and deliver to Purchaser (and Purchaser shall be
     obligated to accept) Seller Estoppel Certificates covering the particular
     tenants necessary so that Purchaser shall receive, at Closing, Required
     Estoppel Certificates and Seller Estoppel Certificates with respect to the
     Required Tenants, provided that Seller shall have the option to choose the
     particular tenants with respect to whom Seller Estoppel Certificates shall
     be delivered.  In the event that Seller deliver such Seller Estoppel
     Certificates, Seller shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to
     the "Actual Knowledge of Seller" (as hereinafter defined) each item of
     information contained in any such Seller Estoppel Certificate delivered to
     Purchaser as to each Lease covered thereby, which 

                                       14
<PAGE>
 
     representation and warranty as to each such item of information shall
     survive for a period terminating on the earlier of (i) one hundred eighty
     (180) days from the Closing Date, or (ii) the date on which Purchaser has
     received an executed Required Estoppel Certificate signed by the tenant
     under the Lease in question. Notice of any claim as to a breach of any
     representations or warranties made in a Seller Estoppel Certificate must be
     made to Seller prior to expiration of the period described in the preceding
     sentence or it shall be deemed to be a waiver of the right to assert such
     claim.

          D.  Should Seller be required to provide to Purchaser at Closing
     Seller Estoppel Certificates and/or certified copies of Leases in
     accordance with Section 4(B)(i)(k) above, Seller may, but shall not be
     obligated to, provide to Purchaser after Closing additional Estoppel
     Certificates received by Seller after Closing in substitution of any of the
     aforesaid Seller Estoppel Certificates and/or certified copies of Leases.

          E.  In the event that Seller delivers certified copies of Leases in
     accordance with Section 4(B)(i)(k) above, Seller's liability under such
     certifications shall survive for a period terminating on the earlier of (1)
     one hundred eighty (180) days from the Closing Date, and (2) the date on
     which an executed Estoppel Certificate signed by the tenant under the Lease
     in question is received by Purchaser.

          F.  If any Estoppel Certificates or Seller Estoppel Certificates
     contain statements or allegations that a default or potential default
     exists on the part of Seller under the Lease in question and (i) the
     existence or the substance of such allegations or statements were contained
     in any "Disclosures" (as defined in Section 11(H) below) prior to the date
     of this Agreement, or (ii) prior to the date of this Agreement, Purchaser
     otherwise obtained actual knowledge of facts revealing the substance of
     such statements or allegations, or (iii) Seller otherwise disclosed in
     writing the existence or the substance of such allegations or statements
     prior to the date of this Agreement, or (iv) Purchaser elects that Closing
     occur notwithstanding the existence of such default or potential default,
     then such Estoppel Certificates and Seller Estoppel Certificates shall be
     deemed acceptable for purposes of this Section 9, notwithstanding the
     existence of such allegations or statements and Seller shall have no
     liability to Purchaser hereunder with respect to the existence of such
     allegations, statements or information.  In addition, in the event that
     such a default by Seller does actually exist, such default is not included
     within the items set forth in subclauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the
     preceding sentence and such default is reasonably susceptible to cure by
     Seller prior to Closing, Seller shall cure such default.

     10.  SELLER'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          A.  Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser the following:

               (i)  As of the date of this Agreement, to the "Actual Knowledge
                    of Seller" (as hereinafter defined), except as set forth on
                    EXHIBIT H attached hereto, Seller has received no written
                    notice from any governmental authority of any material
                    violation of any, state or federal law, rule or regulation
                    concerning the Property or any part thereof which has not
                    been cured prior to the date of this Agreement; provided,
                    however, that Seller makes no representation or warranty
                    with respect to (A) the information or matters disclosed in
                    the items set forth in EXHIBIT P attached hereto, and (B)
                    the Property's compliance with the American with
                    Disabilities Act.

                                       15
<PAGE>
 
               (ii)  The list attached hereto as EXHIBIT C lists all of the
                     Service Contracts as of the date of this Agreement, the
                     service provided thereunder, the vendor under each Service
                     Contract and, if such Service Contract is written, the date
                     of such Service Contract.

               (iii) Except as set forth on EXHIBIT I attached hereto, as of
                     the date of this Agreement, Seller has received no written
                     notice of any pending litigation with respect to the
                     Property which would affect the Property after Closing.

               (iv)  Prior to the date of this Agreement, Seller has calculated
                     the reconciliation of Operating Expenses and Operating
                     Expense Reimbursements for calendar year 1997 and has
                     billed the tenants for any remaining amounts owed to Seller
                     as a result of such reconciliation. In those instances
                     where a refund is owed to a tenant, Seller has either
                     refunded such amount to the tenant in question, offset such
                     refund against amounts owed to Seller by the tenant or
                     offset such refund against present and/or future amounts of
                     Base Rent or Operating Expense Reimbursements to be paid by
                     the tenant(s).

               (v)   To the Actual Knowledge of Seller and with the exception of
                     any leasing commissions owed in connection with the New
                     Leases set forth on EXHIBIT S and any other New Leases
                     executed after the date of this Agreement, there are no
                     leasing commissions due and payable in connection with any
                     of the Leases.

          B.  When used in this Agreement, the term "Actual Knowledge of Seller"
     shall mean and be limited to the actual (and not imputed, implied or
     constructive) current knowledge of Alissa Schneider, Vice President-
     Dispositions of Equity Office Properties Trust, a Maryland real estate
     investment trust, and Mark Scully, Regional Senior Vice President of EOPMC.
     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Alissa Schneider
     nor Mark Scully shall have any personal liability or liability whatsoever
     with respect to any matters set forth in this Agreement or any of Seller's
     representations and/or warranties herein being or becoming untrue,
     inaccurate or incomplete in any respect (it being understood that, subject
     to the provisions of this Agreement, Seller's liability under this
     Agreement is not limited by the limitation on personal liability of such
     individuals).

          C.  The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 10
     and the certifications made pursuant to the Updated Rent Roll shall,
     subject to Section 9(F) and Section 10(F), be deemed to be remade (or made
     in the case of the Updated Rent Roll) as of Closing and shall survive the
     Closing and the delivery of the Deed for a period of one hundred eighty
     (180) days from the Closing Date.  Notice of any claim as to a breach of
     any such representations, warranties or certifications must be made to
     Seller prior to the expiration of such one hundred eighty (180) day period
     or it shall be deemed a waiver of the right to assert such claim.

          D.  Seller does not represent and warrant that any particular Service
     Contract will be in force or effect as of the Closing or that tenants under
     Leases or the parties to the Service Contracts will not be in default under
     their respective Leases or Service Contracts, and neither the existence of
     any default by any tenant under its Lease nor the default of any party
     under any 

                                       16
<PAGE>
 
     Service Contract shall affect the obligations of Purchaser hereunder;
     provided, however, the foregoing shall not affect the conditions contained
     in Section 9 above.

          E.  As and to the extent that Purchaser or its representatives review
     any Disclosures prior to the date of this Agreement and such documents or
     materials contain information inconsistent with or different from the
     representations and warranties set forth in Section 10(A) above, or prior
     to the date of this Agreement Purchaser otherwise obtains actual knowledge
     of facts or Seller otherwise discloses in writing to Purchaser facts that
     are inconsistent with or different from the representations and warranties
     made in Section 10(A), then as of the date of this Agreement such
     representations and warranties shall be deemed modified to conform them to
     the information set forth in such documents and materials or to such other
     facts.

          F.  As and to the extent that (i) Purchaser obtains actual knowledge
     of facts, or (ii) any Estoppel Certificates, Seller Estoppel Certificates,
     Ground Lessor Estoppel Certificates or other documents with respect to
     Leases, the Ground Lease, matters addressed by Section 10(A) and/or the
     Updated Rent Roll contain information or facts that are inconsistent with
     or different from the representations and warranties made in Section 10(A)
     or the certifications made at Closing in the Updated Rent Roll, are
     received by Purchaser or received by Seller and delivered to Purchaser
     prior to the Closing, and Purchaser elects to proceed to Closing and the
     Closing occurs, then the representations and warranties in Section 10(A)
     and/or the certifications made at Closing in the Updated Rent Roll shall be
     deemed to be modified and/or superseded by such certificates or other
     documents (and, in such event, Seller shall no longer have any liability
     hereunder with respect to the portion of the representation, warranty or
     certification superseded herein, as applicable); provided, however, the
     foregoing shall not affect the conditions contained in Section 9 above.

     11.  MISCELLANEOUS.

          A.  All understandings and agreements heretofore had between Seller
     and Purchaser with respect to the Property are merged in this Agreement,
     which alone fully and completely expresses the agreement of the parties.
     Purchaser further acknowledges that, except as expressly provided in this
     Agreement, neither Seller nor any agent or representative of Seller has
     made, and Seller is not liable for or bound in any manner by, any express
     or implied warranties, guaranties, promises, statements, inducements,
     representations or information pertaining to the Property.

          B.  Except for an assignment to a "Permitted Assignee" (as hereinafter
     defined), neither this Agreement nor any interest hereunder shall be
     assigned or transferred by Purchaser without the written consent of Seller,
     which consent may be withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of
     Seller. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Permitted Assignee" shall
     be defined to mean either: (i) a partnership, corporation or limited
     liability company affiliated with Tricony Florida Corporation or in which
     Tricony Florida Corporation and/or Edward Torres is a member, partner or
     shareholder, as applicable, or (ii) a partnership, corporation or limited
     liability company in which Edward Torres is a controlling shareholder of
     the entity (in the case of a corporation), of the general partner (in the
     case of a limited partnership), or of the managing member (in the case of a
     limited liability company).  Upon an assignment to a Permitted Assignee
     such Permitted Assignee shall execute and deliver an agreement to Seller in
     which such Permitted Assignee assumes all of the obligations of Purchaser
     under this Agreement.  Upon an assignment of this Agreement to a Permitted
     Assignee: (1) Purchaser shall not be relieved of any subsequently accruing
     liability under this Agreement, and (2) as used in this Agreement, the
     "Purchaser" shall be deemed to include such Permitted Assignee.  Seller may
     assign or otherwise transfer its interest under this Agreement.  As used in
     this Agreement, the term "Seller" shall be 

                                       17
<PAGE>
 
     deemed to include any assignee or other transferee of any Seller. Upon any
     such transfer by a Seller, such Seller shall be relieved of any
     subsequently accruing liability under this Agreement. Subject to the
     foregoing, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be
     binding upon Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and
     assigns.

          C.  This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except in a
     written document signed by Seller and Purchaser.

          D.  Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

          E.  This Agreement shall be governed and interpreted in accordance
     with the laws of the State of Florida.

          F.  All notices, requests, demands or other communications required or
     permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and delivered (i)
     personally, (ii) by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage
     prepaid, (iii) by overnight courier (such as Federal Express), or (iv) by
     facsimile transmission (with a copy sent via (i), (ii) or (iii)), addressed
     as follows:

     Either party hereto may change the address for receiving notices, requests,
     demands or other communication by notice sent in accordance with the terms
     of this Section 11(F).

          G.  Purchaser's right of inspection pursuant to Section 8(A) above
     shall be subject to the rights of tenants under the Leases and other
     occupants and users of the Property.  No inspection shall be undertaken
     without at least forty-eight (48) hours prior notice to Seller, or EOPMC,
     on behalf of Seller.  Seller shall have the right to be present at any or
     all inspections.  Seller's designated representative for such inspections
     of the Property is Alissa Schneider of EOPMC (telephone (312)/466-3595;
     facsimile 312/559-5051).  Neither Purchaser nor its agents or
     representatives shall contact any tenants without the prior consent of
     Seller.  No inspection shall involve the taking of samples or other
     physically invasive procedures without the prior consent of Seller.
     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
     Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller and its employees and agents, and
     each of them, harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages
     and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
     incurred in connection therewith) arising out of or resulting from
     Purchaser's exercise of its rights of inspection as provided for in Section
     8(A) above.  The provisions of this Section 11(G) shall survive the Closing
     or other termination of this Agreement.

          H.  Acknowledging the prior use of the Property and Purchaser's
     opportunity to inspect the Property and except as specifically provided in
     this Agreement, Purchaser agrees to take the Property "as is" with all
     faults and conditions thereon.  Any information, reports, statements,
     documents or records, including, without limitation, the items set forth in
     EXHIBIT P (collectively, the "Disclosures") provided or made to Purchaser
     or its 

                                       19
<PAGE>
 
     constituents by Seller, its agents, employees, contractors or
     representatives, concerning the Property shall not be representations or
     warranties. Purchaser shall not rely on such Disclosures, but rather,
     Purchaser shall rely only on its own inspection of the Property. PURCHASER
     ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS
     AGREEMENT, NEITHER SELLER NOR ITS AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS OR
     REPRESENTATIVE HAS MADE, AND NONE OF THEM MAKES AND EACH SPECIFICALLY
     DISCLAIMS ANY STATEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, PROMISES, COVENANTS,
     AGREEMENTS OR GUARANTIES OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER WHATSOEVER, WHETHER
     EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ORAL OR WRITTEN, PAST, PRESENT OR FUTURE, OF, AS TO,
     CONCERNING OR WITH RESPECT TO (A) THE NATURE, QUALITY OR CONDITION OF THE
     PROPERTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE WATER, SOIL AND GEOLOGY, (B)
     THE INCOME HERETOFORE DERIVED OR TO BE DERIVED FROM THE PROPERTY, (C) THE
     SUITABILITY OF THE PROPERTY FOR ANY AND ALL ACTIVITIES AND USES WHICH
     PURCHASER MAY CONDUCT THEREON, (D) THE COMPLIANCE OF OR BY THE PROPERTY OR
     ITS OPERATION WITH ANY LAWS, RULES, ORDINANCES OR REGULATIONS OF ANY
     APPLICABLE GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY OR BODY, (E) THE HABITABILITY,
     MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE PROPERTY, OR (F)
     ANY OTHER MATTER WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTY, AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM
     ANY REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING TERMITES OR WASTES, AS DEFINED BY THE U.S.
     ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY REGULATIONS AT 40 C.F.R., OR ANY HAZARDOUS
     SUBSTANCE, AS DEFINED BY THE COMPREHENSIVE ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSE
     COMPENSATION AND LIABILITY ACT OF 1980 ("CERCLA"), AS AMENDED, AND
     REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER.

          Purchaser, its successors and assigns, hereby waive, release and agree
     not to make any claim or bring any cost recovery action or claim for
     contribution, indemnity or other action or claim against Seller or its
     affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, or assigns
     (collectively, "Seller and its Affiliates") (a) under any federal, state,
     or local environmental or health and safety law or regulation, including
     CERCLA or any state equivalent, or any similar law now existing or
     hereafter enacted, (b) with respect to, in connection with or resulting
     from any discharge, disposal, release, or escape of any chemical, or any
     hazardous or toxic material whatsoever, on, at, to, or from the Property;
     or (c) any environmental conditions whatsoever on, under, or in the
     vicinity of the Property.

          I.  In any lawsuit or other proceeding initiated by Purchaser under or
     with respect to this Agreement, Purchaser waives any right it may have to
     trial by jury.

          J.  Purchaser acknowledges that all information with respect to the
     Property furnished or to be furnished to Purchaser is, has been and will be
     so furnished on the condition that Purchaser maintain the confidentiality
     thereof.  Accordingly, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its directors,
     officers and other personnel and representatives to, hold in strict
     confidence, and not disclose to any other party without the prior written
     consent of Seller and unless the Closing occurs: (i) any of the information
     with respect to the Property delivered to Purchaser by Seller or any of its
     agents, representatives or employees, or (ii) the existence of this
     Agreement or any term or condition thereof, or (iii) the results of any
     inspections or studies undertaken in connection herewith.  In addition,
     neither Purchaser nor Purchaser's directors, officers and other personnel
     and representatives shall solicit offers to purchase the Property to any
     other party without the prior written consent of Seller and unless the
     Closing occurs.  Notwithstanding the above, 

                                       20
<PAGE>
   
     Purchaser may disclose such information to individuals or entities
     necessary for Purchaser to consummate the transaction contemplated herein
     (such as attorneys, lenders, engineers, prospective management companies,
     environmental consultants, accountants and tax advisors) and as required by
     law. Purchaser shall require that any parties to whom the existence of this
     Agreement or any information with respect to the Property is disclosed
     execute a confidentiality agreement wherein the party agrees not to
     disclose the existence of this Agreement or information with respect to the
     Property to anyone. In the event the Closing does not occur and this
     Agreement is terminated, Purchaser shall, upon written request by Seller,
     promptly return to Seller all copies of all such information without
     retaining any copy thereof or extract therefrom.

          K.  If for any reason Purchaser does not consummate the Closing, then
     Purchaser shall, upon Seller's request, assign and transfer to Seller all
     of its right, title and interest in and to any and all studies, reports,
     surveys and other information, data and/or documents relating to the
     Property or any part thereof prepared by or at the request of Purchaser,
     its employees and agents, and shall deliver to Seller copies of all of the
     foregoing.

          L.  Seller and Purchaser further agree as follows:

               1. From and after the date of the Letter of Intent through the
          Closing, Seller has delivered or shall deliver, as applicable, for
          Purchaser's review (a "New Lease Notice"), a copy of any proposed new
          Lease, or any modification, amendment, restatement or renewal of any
          existing Lease (individually, a "New Lease" and collectively, "New
          Leases") together with copies of any information submitted by the
          prospective tenant to Seller with respect to such New Lease.  In
          addition, Seller shall also submit to Purchaser for Purchaser's review
          a summary of any leasing or brokerage commissions payable in
          connection with such New Lease and, if a written agreement exists
          between Seller and the leasing broker entitled to be paid a commission
          in connection with such New Lease and Seller has a copy of same, a
          copy of such written agreement.  During the period between the date of
          this Agreement and Closing, Purchaser shall have the right to approve
          or disapprove of any New Lease and any related costs that would be
          incurred by the landlord under such New Lease, such as
          leasing/brokerage commissions, rent abatements, construction or
          buildout costs and construction allowances, by responding in writing
          to Seller's New Lease Notice within five (5) days after Purchaser's
          receipt of the New Lease Notice.  If Purchaser fails to approve or
          disapprove of such New Lease within such five (5) day period,
          Purchaser shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of such New
          Lease and all such related costs.

               2. All tenant improvement costs and/or allowances and leasing
          commissions relating to (a) New Leases entered into by Seller during
          the period between April 27, 1998 and the date of this Agreement, and
          (b) New Leases entered into by Seller after the date of this Agreement
          which Purchaser approves (or is deemed to approve) in accordance with
          Section 11(L)(1) above, shall be prorated in accordance with Section
          4(C)(i)(c) above.  In addition, should the timing and scope of work to
          be performed by the lessor under such New Leases require Seller to
          enter into contracts with contractors or other parties prior to
          Closing in order to comply with the lessor's obligations under such
          New Leases, Seller shall submit the proposed contract with such
          contractor or other parties to Purchaser for its approval (not to be
          unreasonably withheld).  If Purchaser fails to approve or disapprove
          of such contract within five (5) days after its receipt of same,
          Purchaser shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of such
          contract.  If such contract results in work for which the provider or
          subcontractor thereunder may obtain a lien against the Property if
          such work is not paid for, then the "Permitted Exceptions"

                                       21
<PAGE>
 
          shall be deemed to include any potential liens and related notices of
          commencement as a result thereof.

          M.  Seller and Purchaser hereby designate Escrowee to act as and
     perform the duties and obligations of the "reporting person" with respect
     to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement for purposes of 26 C.F.R.
     Section 1.6045-4(e)(5) relating to the requirements for information
     reporting on real estate transaction closed on or after January 1, 1991.
     In this regard, Seller and Purchaser each agree to execute at Closing, and
     to cause the Escrowee to execute at Closing, a Designation Agreement,
     designating Escrowee as the reporting person with respect to the
     transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

          N.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each
     of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together
     shall constitute one and the same instrument.

          O.  Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that neither this
     Agreement nor a memorandum thereof shall be recorded against the Property.

          P.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that any recovery against Seller
     that Purchaser may be entitled to as a result of any claim, demand or cause
     of action that Purchaser may have against Seller with respect to this
     Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein shall only be
     recoverable against Seller in an amount not in excess of One Million
     Dollars ($1,000,000.00).

          Q.  In the event of a conflict between the terms and provisions of the
     Confidentiality Agreement and this Agreement, the terms and provisions of
     this Agreement shall control.

          R.  Except as specifically provided for herein, the representations,
     warranties, covenants and agreements of Seller set forth in this Agreement
     shall not survive the Closing.

          S.  Except as specifically provided herein, no third parties shall
     have the benefit of any of the provisions of this Agreement, nor is this
     Agreement made with the intent that any person or entity other than Seller
     and Purchaser shall rely hereon.

          T.  Pursuant to Section 404.056(6), Florida Statutes (1997), the
     following notification regarding radon gas is hereby made, and all parties
     executing this Agreement acknowledge receipt of this notification:

               RADON GAS: "RADON IS A NATURALLY OCCURRING 
               RADIOACTIVE GAS THAT, WHEN IT HAS ACCUMULATED IN 
               A BUILDING IN SUFFICIENT QUANTITIES, MAY PRESENT 
               HEALTH RISKS TO PERSONS WHO ARE EXPOSED TO IT OVER
               TIME. LEVELS OF RADON THAT EXCEED FEDERAL AND STATE 
               GUIDELINES HAVE BEEN FOUND IN BUILDINGS IN FLORIDA.  
               ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING RADON AND RADON 
               TESTING MAY BE OBTAINED FROM YOUR COUNTY HEALTH

                                       22
<PAGE>
 
          U.  Seller is currently utilizing the "MRI" brand of accounting 
     software at the Property to account for activities at the Property. At
     Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a copy of all of Seller's data
     files for each tenant utilized in connection with such software (that is,
     the electronic information with respect to each tenant's payment history
     and account balance), such delivery to be subject to the following:

          (i)   Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser shall not be
                entitled to the use of Seller's and/or the existing property
                management company's license for the use of such software;

          (ii)  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any 
                other provision of this Agreement, Seller shall not be deemed to
                have made any representation and/or warranty as to the accuracy
                or completeness of the electronic information to be delivered
                under this Section 11(V); and

          (iii) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall have no
                liability to Purchaser (or any party who acquires such
                information from Purchaser) with respect to the information or
                any use thereof.

                                 ELLIS BUILDING
                               SARASOTA, FLORIDA

     Date:  June __, 1998


TO:  Rudnick & Wolfe
     101 East Kennedy Boulevard
     Suite 2000
     Tampa, Florida 33602
     Attention:  John T. Diamandis, Esq.

     The amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) deposited with
you by Broad and Cassel (the "Escrow Deposit") is deposited with you in escrow
on behalf of TRICONY FLORIDA COMPANY, a Florida corporation, the "Purchaser"
under that certain Real Estate Sale Agreement (the "Contract"), dated June __,
1998 with 1605 MAIN STREET ASSOCIATES, a Florida joint venture, as the "Seller",
with respect to the purchase and sale of the property commonly known as Ellis
Building, 1605 Main Street, Sarasota, Florida.

     As escrowee, you are hereby directed to hold, deal with and dispose of the
Escrow Deposit in accordance with the following terms and conditions:

1.   You are to hold the Escrow Deposit until: (a) you are in receipt of a joint
     order by the undersigned Seller and Purchaser as to the disposition of the
     Escrow Deposit which may be contained in the closing statement executed in
     connection with the above referenced purchase and sale; or (b) you are in
     receipt of a written demand (the "Demand") from either Seller or Purchaser
     for the payment of the Escrow Deposit or any portion thereof.  Upon receipt
     of any Demand, you are directed to so notify the non-demanding party,
     enclosing a copy of the Demand.  If within five (5) business days after the
     non-demanding party has received or is deemed to have received your notice
     of your receipt of the Demand, you have not received from the non-demanding
     party its notice of objection to the Demand, then you are to disburse the
     Escrow Deposit as requested by the Demand.  If within said five business-
     day period you receive from the non-demanding party its notice of objection
     to the Demand, then you are to continue to hold the Escrow Deposit until
     you are in receipt of a joint order as aforesaid, but after sixty (60) days
     from the initial Demand you may, at your option, bring an interpleader or
     other appropriate action and deposit the Escrow Deposit with a Court of
     competent jurisdiction.  Upon making such deposit you shall be fully
     relieved and discharged from all further obligations hereunder with respect
     to the sums so deposited.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is any
     dispute as to whether or to whom you are obligated to deliver the Escrow
     Deposit or any part thereof, you will not be obligated to make any
     delivery, but may continue to hold the Escrow Deposit or deposit the Escrow
     Deposit with a court, as provided for above.

2.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, as escrowee, you are hereby expressly
     authorized to regard and to comply with and obey any and all orders,
     judgments or decrees entered or issued by any Court, and in case you obey
     or comply with any such order, judgment or decree of any Court, you shall
     not be liable to either of the parties hereto or any other person or entity
     by reason of such compliance, notwithstanding any such order, judgment or
     decree be entered without jurisdiction 


<PAGE>
 
     or be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.  In
     case of any suit or proceeding regarding these Escrow Instructions, to
     which you are or may at any time be a party, the undersigned Seller and
     Purchaser agree that the non-prevailing party shall pay to you upon demand
     all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by you in connection herewith
     but solely for costs incurred in your role as Escrowee.

3.   You shall not charge an escrow fee in connection with your role as Escrowee
     hereunder.

4.   As escrowee, after your receipt of a fully completed and executed Request
     for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification (IRS form W-9), you
     shall invest the Escrow Deposit in an interest-bearing account with a
     federally-insured bank or savings and loan as association or as otherwise
     directed by both Purchaser and Seller in writing. Any interest earned on
     the Escrow Deposit, after you deduct your customary investment charges,
     shall become and be deemed to be a part of the Escrow Deposit.  The FEIN of
     Purchaser is ____________________.

5.   All notices or other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall
     be personally delivered or sent by overnight courier (such as Federal
     Express), by facsimile transmission or by first class United States Mail,
     postage prepaid, registered or certified (return receipt requested) to the
     respective addresses for the Seller, Purchaser and escrowee as herein
     provided, together with copies to the attorneys for Seller and Purchaser at
     the addresses for such attorneys set forth in Paragraph 6 below.  A notice
     is given on the date it is personally delivered, sent by overnight courier
     or facsimile transmission, or deposited with the United States Mail for
     delivery as aforesaid.  A notice is received on the date it is personally
     delivered, the day after sent if sent by overnight courier or facsimile
     transmission or, if sent by mail as aforesaid, on the date noted on the
     return receipt.

6.   Either Purchaser or Seller may act hereunder either directly or through its
     attorney.  The attorney for the Purchaser is:

                    Attention:  Mark A. Trager

6A.  Your duties as escrowee do not extend beyond those specifically provided
     for herein and are purely ministerial in nature, and you shall incur no
     liability whatsoever except for your own 

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
     fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence.  Purchaser and Seller shall
     hold you harmless from any liability for any loss of the Escrow Deposit or
     interest thereon caused by any delay in the deposit or early withdrawal of
     the Escrow Deposit from the interest bearing account and for any other act
     done or omitted to be done by you in connection with the performance of
     your duties hereunder, except to the extent such act or omission
     constitutes your fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence.

6B.  Upon your fulfillment of your duties in accordance with the provisions of
     this Escrow Agreement, your duties and responsibilities will cease and you
     will be released of all liability in connection with this Escrow Agreement
     and the Escrow Deposit.  You may act in reliance upon any authorization,
     acknowledgment or signature which you believe to be genuine and may assume
     that any person purporting to give any writing, acknowledgment, notice or
     instruction in connection with the provisions of this Escrow Agreement has
     been duly authorized to do so.  You may rely on demands, instructions, and
     authorizations received by telecopy.

6C.  Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that you have served and will continue to
     serve as special Florida counsel to Seller in connection with the sale of
     the above described property.  Purchaser and Seller agree that pursuant to
     this letter, you are acting as a neutral depository only and no
     attorney/client relationship is being created.  In addition, Purchaser
     agrees that in the event of a dispute arising out of or in connection with
     the sale of the property, or the Contract, including any dispute as to the
     Escrow Deposit, you will be permitted to continue to act as counsel for
     Purchaser in connection with any such dispute, notwithstanding that Rudnick
     & Wolfe is also serving as Escrowee and title agent under the Contract.
     Rudnick and Wolfe's employment as special Florida counsel for Seller shall
     not, however, affect Escrowee's duties and obligations hereunder.

7.   This Escrow Agreement is being entered into to implement the Contract and
     shall not (nor be deemed to) amend, modify or supersede the Contract or act
     as a waiver of any rights, obligations or remedies set forth therein;
     provided, however, that you may rely solely upon these Escrow Instructions.

     Re:  Transmittal of Information Regarding Asbestos-Containing Material 
          and Presumed Asbestos-Containing Material


Ladies and Gentlemen:

     As you know, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration ("OSHA") has
enacted regulations (the "OSHA Regulations") which require building owners to
provide information regarding the presence, location and quantity of asbestos
containing material ("ACM") and presumed ACM ("PACM") to various building
occupants, including employers of employees who lease space within the owner's
building. In addition, the OSHA Regulations, specifically 29 C.F.R.
(S)1910.1001(j)(2)(ii) and 29 C.F.R. (S)1926.1101(n)(6), require building owners
to keep records of all information required to be maintained by the OSHA
Regulations and to transmit such records to subsequent owners at or before the
time of closing.

     1605 MAIN STREET ASSOCIATES, a Florida joint venture ("Seller"), has, prior
to the date of this letter, provided Tricony Florida Corporation, a Florida
corporation, and ______________ (collectively, "Purchaser") with copies of
information required to be maintained and transmitted as described above
regarding ACM and PACM at the property located at 1605 Main Street, Sarasota,
Florida, and commonly known as the Ellis Building, including copies of notices
to tenants and any related asbestos sampling results and reports in our
possession (such information, notices and reports being referred to herein
collectively as the "Reports"). A list of such Reports is set forth on 
SCHEDULE 1 attached hereto.

     The undersigned makes no representation, warranty, promises, covenants,
agreements or guarantees of any kind or character whatsoever, express or
implied, oral or written, past, present or future, of, as to, concerning or with
respect to the information and documentation transmitted herewith including
without limitation, the accuracy or completeness of such Reports, the Reports'
compliance with the OSHA Regulations, or Seller's compliance with the OSHA
Regulations.
