CURRENT REPORT
PAINEWEBBER EQUITY PARTNERS TWO LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
ITEM 2 - Disposition of Assets
West Ashley Shoppes - Charleston, South Carolina
Disposition Date - May 14, 1999
On May 14, 1999, West Ashley Shoppes Associates, a joint venture in which
PaineWebber Equity Partners Two Limited Partnership ("the Partnership") has an
interest, sold the property known as West Ashley Shoppes located in Charleston,
South Carolina, to an unrelated third party for $8.1 million. In addition, on
May 12, 1999, West Ashley Shoppes Associates sold an adjacent outparcel of land
to another unrelated third party for $280,000. The May 14 transaction involved
the remaining real estate owned by the joint venture. Accordingly, the joint
venture will be liquidated once the final operating expenses have been paid and
the remaining net cash assets have been distributed to the Partnership. The
Partnership received total net proceeds from the two sale transactions of
approximately $8,070,000 after deducting closing costs of approximately $225,000
and net closing proration adjustments of approximately $85,000. The Partnership
plans to distribute the net proceeds of the West Ashley Shoppes sale
transactions to the Limited Partners in the form of a special distribution in
the amount of approximately $60 per original $1,000 investment to be paid on or
before June 15, 1999.
As previously reported, with a strong occupancy level and a stable base of
tenants, the Partnership believed it was the opportune time to sell West Ashley
Shoppes. As part of a plan to market the property for sale, the Partnership
selected a national real estate firm that is a leading seller of this property
type. Preliminary sales materials were prepared and initial marketing efforts
were undertaken. A marketing package was then finalized and comprehensive sale
efforts began in November 1998. As a result of these efforts, ten offers were
received. After completing an evaluation of those offers and the relative
strength of the prospective purchasers, the Partnership selected an offer. A
purchase and sale agreement was negotiated with an unrelated third-party
prospective buyer and a non-refundable deposit of $150,000 was made on January
29, 1999. This prospective buyer completed its due diligence review work and the
transaction closed on May 14, 1999, as described above.
As discussed further in the Partnership's most recent Annual Report on
Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, management has been focusing on
potential disposition strategies for the remaining investments in the
Partnership's portfolio. Subsequent to the sale of West Ashley Shoppes, the
remaining investments consist of joint venture interests in the Gateway Plaza
Shopping Center and the 625 North Michigan Office Building. Although there are
no assurances, it is currently contemplated that sales of the Partnership's
remaining assets, which would be followed by a liquidation of the Partnership,
could be completed by the end of calendar year 1999.

consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Seller hereby agrees to sell and convey the Property to Buyer and
Buyer hereby agrees to buy and pay the Purchase Price for the Property on the

ARTICLE 3
PURCHASE PRICE, DEPOSIT AND ADJUSTMENTS
3.1 The Purchase Price shall be as specified in Article 1 above and shall
be paid on the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined) by wire transfer of
immediately available federal funds, subject to adjustment to reflect
application of the Escrowed Amount (as hereinafter defined) and such other
adjustments herein contained.
3.2 Buyer has deposited with the Title Company the sum of One Hundred
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000.00) (the Deposit). The Deposit is referred to
in this Agreement as the Escrowed Amount to secure Buyer's obligations under
this Agreement. The Escrowed Amount shall be held by the Title Company in escrow
in a federally-insured interest bearing account pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement and pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Provisions contained in
Schedule F attached hereto and made a part hereof. Upon consummation of the
purchase and sale contemplated in this Agreement, all interest earned on the
Escrowed Amount shall be credited against the balance of the Purchase Price due
on the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined). Additionally, concurrently with
the execution of this Agreement, Buyer shall deliver to Seller the sum of One
Hundred Dollars ($100.00) (the Inspection Fee) as consideration for Buyer's
information review and property inspection rights set forth herein. The
Inspection Fee shall remain the property of Seller in all instances.
3.3 All real estate taxes, assessments, special taxes, special assessments
and any other tax or assessment attributable to the Property through the Closing
Date shall be prorated and adjusted as of the Closing Date unless such items are
paid directly by tenants to the applicable taxing authority, in which case no
adjustment or proration shall be made for the items paid directly by the
tenants. If the tax statements for the fiscal year during which the Closing Date
occurs are not finally determined, then the tax figures for the immediately
prior fiscal year shall be used for the purposes of prorating taxes on the
Closing Date. Any tax refunds or proceeds (including interest thereon) on
account of a favorable determination resulting from a challenge, protest, appeal
or similar proceeding relating to taxes and assessments relating to the Property
(i) for all tax periods occurring prior to the applicable tax period in which
the Closing occurs shall be retained by and paid exclusively to Seller and (ii)
for the applicable tax period in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated as
of the Closing Date after reimbursement to Seller and Buyer, as applicable, for
all fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys and consultants
fees) incurred by Seller or Buyer, as applicable, in connection with such
proceedings such that Seller shall retain and be paid that portion of such tax
refunds or proceeds after such reimbursement as is applicable to the portion of
the applicable tax period prior to the Closing Date and Buyer shall retain and
be paid that portion of such tax refunds or proceeds as is applicable to the
portion of the applicable tax period from and after the Closing Date. Neither
Seller nor Buyer shall settle any tax protests or proceedings in which taxes for
the tax period for which the other party is responsible are being adjudicated
without the consent of such party, which consent should shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Buyer and Seller shall cooperate
in pursuit of any such proceedings and in responding to reasonable requests of
the other for information concerning the status of and otherwise relating to
such proceedings; provided, however, that neither party shall be obligated to
incur any out-of-pocket fees, costs or expenses in responding to the requests of
the other. In no event shall any such proceeding be commenced by Seller
following the Closing Date without Buyer's prior written consent.
3.4 Prepaid or past due amounts under any Contracts (as defined in Section
5.2 below) which are assigned to Buyer at Closing shall be prorated and adjusted
as of the Closing Date.
3.5 Seller shall cause all meters for electricity, gas, water, sewer or
other utility usage at the Property to be read on the Closing Date, and Seller
shall pay all charges for such utilities which have accrued on or prior to the
Closing Date; provided, however, that if and to the extent such charges are paid
directly by tenants, no such reading or payment shall be required. If the
utility companies are unable or refuse to read meters for which payment by
Seller is required, all charges for such utilities to the extent unpaid shall be
prorated and adjusted as of the Closing Date based on the most recent bills
therefor. Seller shall provide notice to Buyer within five (5) days before the
Closing Date setting forth (i) whether utility meters will be read as of the
Closing Date and (ii) a copy of the most recent bill for any utility charges
which are to be prorated and adjusted as of the Closing Date. If the meters
cannot be read as of the Closing Date and, therefore, the most recent bill is
used to prorate and adjust as of the Closing Date, then to the extent that the
amount of such prior bill proves to be more or less than the actual charges for
the period in question, a further adjustment shall be made after the Closing
Date as soon as the actual charges for such utilities are available.
3.6 Collected rents for the then current period; security deposits which
have not been previously applied by Seller; prepaid rentals; collected or
prepaid common area maintenance charges; collected or prepaid promotional
charges; collected or prepaid service charges; collected or prepaid tax charges,
and all other collected or prepaid incidental expenses and charges paid by
tenants shall be apportioned and full value shall be adjusted as of the Closing
Date, and the net amount thereof, if in favor of Seller, shall be added to the
Purchase Price, or if in favor of Buyer, shall be deducted from the Purchase
Price. From and after Closing all security deposits credited to Buyer shall
thereafter be deemed transferred to Buyer and Buyer shall assume and be solely
responsible for the payments of security deposits (for which Buyer was credited
at Closing) to tenants in accordance with the Leases (as hereinafter defined)
and applicable law. Seller shall be entitled to retain and/or receive a credit
for any utility deposits and any deposits for third parties under any of the
Contracts (as hereinafter defined).
3.6.1 All rentals and other tenant charges payable in arrears and
uncollected and all other uncollected rents (including, but not limited
to, percentage rents, common area maintenance charges and real estate tax
charge annual adjustments thereto) for the current and prior rental
periods, less the reasonable expenses of collection thereof, shall be
apportioned (if and when collected by either party). Buyer shall first
apply rents subsequently received to rent due and owing for rental periods
accruing after the Closing Date. Buyer shall not settle or release (i)
tenants from any obligations for such uncollected rents or (ii) rights
under any claims listed in Section 3.6.2 below, in each case, without
Seller's prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed.
3.6.2 Seller shall retain all rights to all refunds, receivables,
past due rent and claims, including, but not limited to, termination fees
or damages from all former tenants or occupants of the Property which are
not listed on the Rent Roll, causes of action and rights of reimbursement
from third parties, bonds, accounts receivable and any other claims for
payments Seller may have to the extent arising or relating to the period
prior to the Closing.
3.6.3 In the event, on the Closing Date, the precise figures
necessary for any of the foregoing adjustments are not capable of
determination, then, at Buyer's option, those adjustments shall be made
either (i) on the basis of good faith estimates of Seller and Buyer using
currently available information, and final adjustments shall be made
promptly after precise figures are determined or available or (ii) when
all information for all final adjustments are determined or available.
3.7 At the Closing, Seller shall pay the amount due for (a) state and
county transfer tax (or any tax substituted therefor) imposed in connection with
the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby (the Transfer Tax); (b)
recording charges for documents to clear title, evidence Seller's authority or
enable Seller to convey; and (c) Seller's attorney's fees.
3.8 At the Closing, Buyer shall pay for (a) any local tax or mortgage tax
other than the Transfer Tax; (b) charges to record the deed, and evidence of
Buyer's existence or authority; (c) survey charges; (d) Buyer's attorney's fees
and all costs related to Buyer's due diligence; (e) the cost of the standard
owners title insurance policy referred to in Article 6, below; and (f) costs as
to additional title insurance coverages or endorsements, including the cost of a
new lenders title policy.
3.9 The provisions of this Article 3 shall survive the Closing.
3.10 Buyer shall pay all brokerage commissions and tenant improvements, if
any, for the lease with Countrywide Home and the lease extension with One Way
Eyeglasses.
ARTICLE 4
PRECLOSING OPERATION
4.1 A rent roll prepared by Seller's property manager (the Rent Roll)
containing a list of all current occupants of the Property is attached hereto as
Schedule C. The leases listed on the Rent Roll, together with leases entered
into pursuant to this Article 4 are collectively referred to herein as the
Leases.
4.2 Seller shall not, after the date hereof; (i) enter into any new Leases
or materially amend or terminate any existing Leases, (ii) enter into or modify
any service contracts, operating agreements, or reciprocal easement agreements,
(iii) alter the zoning classification of the Property or (iv) materially alter
any Improvements, without the written consent of Buyer in any such instance,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If Buyer does not
notify Seller in writing of its denial of consent within ten (10) Business Days
(as hereinafter defined) after written request therefor is received from Seller,
Buyer shall be deemed to have consented to such requested action. In the event
Buyer denies its consent, Buyer shall specify its reasons for denial in its
written notice thereof. In the event Seller's requested action with respect to a
Lease is consented to or deemed consented to by Buyer, Buyer shall pay for
tenant improvements and leasing commissions as disclosed on Seller's request for
consent on the Closing Date. Without limiting any of the provisions contained
herein, Buyer shall assume the current outstanding balance of free rent due to
Waccamaw Corporation pursuant to that certain lease dated October 31, 1997 by
and between Seller and Waccamaw Corporation.
4.3 At all times prior to Closing, Seller shall continue (a) to conduct
business with respect to the Property in the same manner in which said business
has been heretofore conducted and (b) to insure the Property substantially as
currently insured, as evidenced by the insurance certificate attached hereto as
Schedule L.
4.4 Buyer shall, by written notice to Seller, on or before the Diligence
Date, identify any Contracts (as defined in Section 5.2 below) which it elects
to have terminated. Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to assume any
Contracts which are not identified as to be terminated. Seller shall terminate
any Contracts at Closing which are identified by Buyer as specified in this
section as Contracts to be terminated at Closing, provided that such Contracts
may be terminated without liability to Seller and provided that such Contracts
are terminable on not more than sixty (60) days notice. Seller shall pay any
cancellation costs incurred therewith.
4.5 Seller shall (i) obtain tenant estoppel certificates which do not list
any monetary defaults from Waccamaw Corporation, Phar-Mor, Inc. and such other
tenants as are required so that such certificates are received from tenants
occupying at least 112,000 square feet at the Property, and (ii) use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain tenant estoppel certificates, from all
other tenants currently occupying their space under its respective Lease, in
each case, in the form attached hereto as Schedule E, in the form attached to or
required pursuant to such Lease, if any, or in such other form as Buyer's lender
may reasonably require, provided, however that such other form will be delivered
to Seller from Buyer as soon as possible so that any such form may be agreed
upon on or before March 15, 1999. Seller shall not be obligated to expend more
than nominal funds or commence litigation in pursuit of such estoppel
certificates. Receipt of such estoppel certificates described in clause (i)
above shall be a condition precedent to Closing, however, receipt of such
certificates described in clause (ii) above shall not be a condition precedent
to Closing except as otherwise provided in Section 6.5.
4.6 Seller shall use reasonable efforts to obtain subordination,
non-disturbance and attornment agreements from all tenants currently occupying
space under a Lease in the form attached hereto as Schedule M or in such other
form as Buyer's lender may reasonably require, provided, however that such other
form will be delivered to Seller from Buyer as soon as possible so that any such
form may be agreed upon on or before March 15, 1999.
ARTICLE 5
ACCESS, INSPECTION, DILIGENCE AND MORTGAGE CONTINGENCY
5.1 Seller agrees that Buyer and its authorized agents or representatives
shall be entitled to enter upon the Real Property and the Improvements during
normal business hours after one (1) day advance written notice to Seller (in
each case subject to the rights of tenants under the Leases) to make such
reasonable investigations, studies, and tests as Buyer deems necessary or
advisable; provided, however, that Buyer shall not be permitted to conduct
physical testing or conduct interviews with tenants without Seller's prior
written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed. Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make its
personnel available for such inspections or interviews upon one (1) day prior
written notice. Seller's prior written approval for physical inspections may be
conditioned on receipt of a detailed description of the proposed physical
inspection, a list of the contractors who will be performing the physical
inspection, evidence of insurance satisfactory to Seller, and such other
information as Seller reasonably requires in connection with such proposed
inspection. Buyer may not interview tenants unless a duly authorized
representative of Seller accompanies Buyer. Seller also agrees to make available
to Buyer during normal business hours upon advance written notice to Seller all
books, records, plans, building specifications, contracts, agreements or other
instruments or documents contained in Seller's files relating to the
construction, operation and maintenance of the Property and the files of the
current manager of the Property that relate to the Property.
5.2 Seller has provided Buyer with copies of all (i) Leases, (ii) all
maintenance, service, supply, equipment rental, management and leasing contracts
affecting the Property (collectively, the Contracts) which it has in its files
and its property manager has made such Leases and Contracts available to Buyer
for inspection, and (iii) such other information and reports affecting the
Property to the extent in Seller's possession or control.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any and all information, documents,
surveys, studies add reports provided to Buyer are provided for informational
purposes only and do not constitute representations and warranties of Seller of
any kind.
5.3 Buyer has completed its due diligence, other than as provided in
Section 6.1 below, and such due diligence did not reveal any matters which are
not acceptable to Buyer in Buyer's sole and absolute discretion.
Buyer acknowledges that it had an opportunity to conduct diligence on the
Property and is acquiring the Property in its current condition based on its
diligence. Buyer further acknowledges that neither Seller nor its employees,
agents or representatives have made any representation or warranty as to the
condition of the Property or the presence or absence of any hazardous materials
on, in, under or within the Property or a portion thereof which survive the
Closing hereunder except as expressly provided in this Agreement. THE BUYER
ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE PROPERTY IS TO BE CONVEYED BY SELLER TO BUYER
AS IS, WITH ALL FAULTS, AND SUBSTANTIALLY IN ITS CURRENT CONDITION. BUYER
FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY CONTAINED IN THIS
AGREEMENT, NEITHER SELLER NOR ANY AGENT, EMPLOYEE OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE OF
SELLER (OR PURPORTED AGENT, EMPLOYEE OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE OF SELLER) HAS MADE
ANY GUARANTEE, REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (AND SELLER SHALL
NOT HAVE ANY LIABILITY WHATSOEVER) AS TO THE VALUE, USES, HABITABILITY,
CONDITION, DESIGN, OPERATION, FINANCIAL CONDITION OR PROSPECTS, OR FITNESS FOR
PURPOSE OR USE OF THE PROPERTY (OR ANY PART THEREOF) OR THE INFORMATION
MATERIALS NOT PREPARED BY SELLER, OR ANY OTHER GUARANTEE, REPRESENTATION OR
WARRANTY WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO ANY PORTION OF THE
PROPERTY (OR ANY PART THEREOF) OR THE INFORMATION MATERIALS SUPPLIED TO BUYER.
FURTHER, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY LATENT, HIDDEN, OR PATENT DEFECT
AS TO THE PROPERTY OR THE FAILURE OF THE PROPERTY, OR ANY PART THEREOF, TO
COMPLY WITH ANY APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS. IN PARTICULAR, BUYER
ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE INFORMATION MATERIALS PROVIDED UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT (AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION BUYER MAY HAVE OBTAINED REGARDING IN ANY
WAY ANY OF THE PROPERTY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ITS OPERATIONS OR ITS
FINANCIAL HISTORY OR PROSPECTS FROM SELLER OR ITS AGENTS, EMPLOYEES OR OTHER
REPRESENTATIVES BUT NOT INCLUDING INFORMATION PREPARED BY SELLER) IS DELIVERED
TO BUYER AS A COURTESY, WITHOUT REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY AS TO ITS ACCURACY OR
COMPLETENESS (EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT), AND NOT AS AN
INDUCEMENT TO ACQUIRE THE PROPERTY; THAT NOTHING CONTAINED IN SUCH DELIVERIES
SHALL CONSTITUTE OR BE DEEMED TO BE A GUARANTEE, REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN ANY REGARD AS TO ANY OF THE PROPERTY (EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY
PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT); AND THAT BUYER IS RELYING ONLY UPON THE PROVISIONS
OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS OWN INDEPENDENT ASSESSMENT OF THE PROPERTY AND ITS
PROSPECTS IN DETERMINING WHETHER TO ACQUIRE THE PROPERTY. The provisions of this
paragraph shall survive the Closing.
5.4 Mortgage Contingency. Promptly following execution of this Agreement
by both parties, Buyer shall use its diligent efforts to procure any financing
necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and shall pay all
costs, fees and expenses necessary to obtain such financing.
If during the period (the Mortgage Contingency Period) commencing on the
date of this Agreement and ending on March 15, 1999, despite Buyer's diligent
efforts to so obtain a commitment for financing or such other reasonable
assurances that such financing will be available Buyer is unable to obtain a
commitment or commitments for financing on terms satisfactory to Buyer or such
other reasonable assurances that such financing will be available as determined
by Buyer, each in Buyer's sole discretion, or if Buyer is not otherwise willing
to waive the financing contingency set forth in this Section 5.4, Buyer shall
deliver to Seller a written notice of termination of this Agreement along with a
copy of (i) correspondence from Buyer to the mortgage broker and/or the selected
lender regarding Buyer's efforts to obtain a commitment for financing, or (ii)
Buyer's transmittal letter which accompanied its mortgage application and the
Escrowed Amount and all interest earned thereon shall be returned to Buyer, and
neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than
those intended to survive.
Once a commitment for financing is obtained, Buyer shall send a copy of
such commitment to Seller.
If prior to the end of the Mortgage Contingency Period Buyer fails to
deliver to Seller written notice terminating this Agreement along with a copy of
(i) correspondence from Buyer to the mortgage broker and/or the selected lender
regarding Buyer's efforts to obtain a commitment for financing, or (ii) Buyer's
transmittal letter which accompanied its mortgage application, the Escrowed
Amount shall become non-refundable, except as expressly set forth in Sections
6.5, 8.1(b), 8.2 and 10.1.
5.5 Return of Documents. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason
whatsoever, Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller all documents, plans,
surveys, contracts, Leases and the like delivered to Buyer or Buyer's agents,
representatives or designees by Seller or Seller's agents, representatives or
employees pursuant to this Agreement. Delivery by Buyer to Seller of a letter
stating that Buyer has so delivered to Seller all such documents, plans,
surveys, contracts, Leases and the like shall be deemed to be conclusive
evidence of the return of such materials. In addition, Buyer shall promptly
deliver to Seller copies of all materials prepared by third-parties obtained in
connection with Buyer's diligence. Delivery by Buyer to Seller of an affidavit
cerifying that Buyer has so delivered to Seller copies of all materials prepared
by third-parties obtained in connection with Buyer's diligence shall be deemed
conclusive evidence of the return of such third-party materials. The return of
the Escrowed Amount to Buyer under this Agreement shall be contingent upon
Buyer's fulfillment of the obligations under this Section 5.5.
5.6 Confidentiality. Each party hereto agrees to maintain in confidence,
and not to discuss with or to disclose to any person or entity who is not a
party to this Agreement, any material term of this Agreement or any aspect of
the transactions contemplated hereby, except as provided in this Section. Seller
may publicly disclose the existence of this Agreement provided that the identity
of Buyer is not disclosed. Each party hereto may discuss with and disclose to
its directors, officers and employees, accountants, attorneys, existing or
prospective lenders, investment bankers, underwriters, rating agencies,
partners, consultants and other advisors to the extent such parties reasonably
need to know such information and are bound by a confidentiality obligation
identical in all material respects to the one created by this Section.
Additionally, each party may discuss and disclose such matters to the extent
necessary to comply with any requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission or in order to comply with any securities law or interpretation
thereof. This provision shall survive termination of this Agreement but shall
terminate upon Closing. Buyer and Seller do not contemplate issuing a press
release until after the Diligence Date. Any press release to be made regarding
any matter which is the subject of the confidentiality obligation created in
this Section shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Buyer and Seller,
respectively both as to timing and content. Buyer agrees that neither it nor any
affiliate will acquire or enter into any agreement to acquire, either directly
or indirectly any interest in Seller.
5.7 Indemnity. If any inspection or test disturbs any of the Property,
Buyer will restore the Property to substantially the same condition as existed
prior to any such inspection or test. Buyer shall keep the Property free and
clear of any liens and will indemnify, defend, and hold Seller harmless from all
losses, costs and damages including reasonable attorney's fees incurred by
Seller as a result of such entry or investigation by or on behalf of Buyer other
than loss, cost or damage which is discovered (and not caused) by such
investigation as a result of pre-existing conditions. This indemnity obligation
of Buyer shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.
5.8 Buyer's Release of Seller. SELLER AND ITS PROPERTY MANAGER ARE HEREBY
RELEASED FROM ALL RESPONSIBILITY AND LIABILITY REGARDING THE CONDITION
(INCLUDING THE PRESENCE IN THE SOIL, AIR, STRUCTURES AND SURFACE AND SUBSURFACE
WATERS, OF MATERIALS OR SUBSTANCES THAT HAVE BEEN OR MAY BE IN THE FUTURE
DETERMINED TO BE TOXIC, HAZARDOUS, UNDESIRABLE OR SUBJECT TO REGULATION AND THAT
MAY NEED TO BE SPECIALLY TREATED, HANDLED AND/OR REMOVED FROM THE PROPERTY UNDER
CURRENT OR FUTURE FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL LAWS, REGULATIONS OR GUIDELINES),
VALUATION, SALABILITY OR UTILITY OF THE PROPERTY, OR ITS SUITABILITY FOR ANY
PURPOSE WHATSOEVER. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY INFORMATION OF ANY TYPE WHICH
BUYER HAS RECEIVED OR MAY RECEIVE FROM SELLER, ITS PROPERTY MANAGER OR THEIR
RESPECTIVE AGENTS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS AND
SURVEYS, IS FURNISHED ON THE EXPRESS CONDITION THAT BUYER SHALL MAKE AN
INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION OF THE ACCURACY OF SUCH INFORMATION, ALL SUCH
INFORMATION BEING FURNISHED WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY WHATSOEVER.
ARTICLE 6

Encumbrances.
Buyer may only object to any exceptions to title contained in Buyer's

by Buyer but in no event shall such objections be made after March 15, 1999. If
Seller is unable or unwilling to cure such objections, prior to the expiration
of the Mortgage Contingency Period, Buyer may elect, by written notice to
Seller, received by Seller on or before the expiration of the Mortgage
Contingency Period, not to proceed with this purchase, in which event this
Agreement shall terminate, the Escrowed Amount and all interest earned thereon
shall be returned to Buyer and this Agreement shall be null and void without
recourse to either party hereto (except to the extent such recourse arises in
connection with a provision of this Agreement which is intended to survive
termination). In the event Buyer does not terminate this Agreement as set forth
in the preceding sentence then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived such
objection and shall proceed to Closing.
6.2 On the Closing Date, Seller shall convey by Special Warranty Deed to
Buyer, title to all of the Real Property and the Improvements free and clear of
all liens, encumbrances, conditions, easements, assessments, restrictions and
other conditions, except for the following:
(a) The lien, if any, forreal estate taxes not yet due and
payable;
(b) All matters listed on Buyer's Commitment and as would be
disclosed on a current Survey as of the expiration of the
Mortgage Contingency Period and not objected to pursuant to
Section 6.1 above;
(c) All Leases disclosed to Buyer;

Commitment which are agreed upon or consented to by Buyer in
writing.

not to be terminated and intangible property, if any, to Buyer and Buyer shall
assume Seller's obligations thereunder from and after the Closing Date and
Seller shall convey the Personal Property to Buyer by quitclaim bill of sale.

to proceed with this purchase, in which event this Agreement shall terminate,

(95%) Rented, it being acknowledged that if there is a choice of which leased
space shall be used in bringing the Improvements to ninety-five percent (95%)
Rented, then the choice of space shall be determined by Seller, in Seller's sole
discretion, and (ii) a sum determined by multiplying the Catch Up Space by One
and 50/100 Dollars ($1.50), in which case Buyer's termination shall be void and
the parties hereto shall consummate the transaction contemplated by this

tenants pursuant to written leases as listed on the Rent Roll and for which rent

shall, upon receiving a copy of a notice given by a party in accordance with
this Agreement claiming entitlement to all or a portion of the Escrowed Amount,
give a notice to the other party that such claim of entitlement has been made.

shall not be obligated to make any investigation or determination, except as
provided in the case of disputes as to the truth and accuracy of any information
contained therein. Buyer and Seller agree to defend, indemnify and hold Title
Company harmless from any liabilities, suits, claims, or expenses arising from
or out of or in connection with Title Company's acts or failure to act

negligence or willful misconduct, and Title Company shall be entitled to
reimbursement by Buyer and/or Seller for all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred in the performance of its duties hereunder including, without
limitation, all out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable attorney's fees of counsel
retained by Title Company. Any such costs and expenses not paid by the parties
after billing and supporting documentation by Title Company may be paid by Title
Company out of the Escrowed Amount. If there is a settlement by Buyer and Seller
prior to a court order, Buyer and Seller will share equally in the expenses
incurred by the Title Company. Otherwise, the non-prevailing party shall assume
full responsibility for the Title Company's expenses. Title Company is not
required to advance or expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal
liability in performance of its duties hereunder and it may require advancement
of funds by the parties.

CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA
PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (the Agreement) is made and entered into
as of the 2nd day of February, 1999, by and between WEST ASHLEY SHOPPES
ASSOCIATES (the Seller), a South Carolina general partnership with an address of
c/o PaineWebber Properties Incorporated, 265 Franklin Street - 15th Floor,
Boston, Massachusetts 02110, and KELLY & COHEN APPLIANCES, INC. (the Purchaser),
an Ohio corporation with an address of 2875 Needmore Road, Dayton, Ohio 45414.
RECITALS
A. Seller is the owner of the Property (as such term is hereinafter
defined).
B. Seller desires to sell the Property to Purchaser, and Purchaser desires
to purchase the Property from Seller, each upon and subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
THEREFORE, in consideration of and in reliance upon the above Recitals,
the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Agreement, and other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Seller and Purchaser agree as follows:
1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF PROPERTY.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Seller hereby
agrees to sell and Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase the land known as Tract E
of West Ashley Shopping Center in Charleston, South Carolina, as more
particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto, together with and subject
to all and singular easements, covenants, agreements, rights, privileges,
tenements, hereditaments and appurtenances thereunto now or hereafter belonging
or appertaining thereto (all of which is hereinafter collectively referred to as
the Property).
2. PURCHASE PRICE.
The purchase price to be paid by Purchaser to Seller for the Property is
Two Hundred and Eighty Thousand Dollars ($280,000) (the Purchase Price), which
shall be paid as follows:
1. Earnest Money. Upon the execution of this Agreement by Seller and Purchaser,
Seller, Purchaser and Escrowee, as hereinafter defined, shall execute the
Earnest Money Escrow Instructions, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the
Escrow Instructions) and Purchaser shall deliver to the Old Republic National
Title Insurance Company (Escrowee) immediately available federal funds in the
amount of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) (the Deposit). The Deposit, together
with the Additional Deposit, and the Second Additional Deposit, all as
hereinafter defined, and any interest earned thereon net of investment costs, is
referred to in this Agreement as the Earnest Money. Escrowee will hold, invest
in an interest bearing account and discharge the Earnest Money pursuant to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Instructions.
2. Cash at Closing. At Closing, as hereinafter defined, Purchaser shall pay to
Seller the Cash Balance.
As used herein, the Cash Balance payable by Purchaser to Seller at
Closing shall equal the Purchase Price less the Earnest Money, such sum to be
paid in immediately available federal funds to an account designated by Seller
in writing to Purchaser, subject, however, to such adjustments as are required
by this Agreement.
3. STATUS OF TITLE TO PROPERTY.
1. State of Title. At Closing, Seller shall convey to Purchaser fee simple
estate in and to the Property by a recordable special warranty deed, subject to:
covenants, conditions, restrictions and easements of record, including but not
limited to the restrictions listed on Exhibit A-1, attached hereto, the lien of
general real estate taxes which are not yet due or payable and any lien for
special taxes or assessments which are not yet due or payable (all of which is
hereinafter collectively referred to as the Permitted Exceptions). Purchaser
hereby covenants and agrees to comply with the Permitted Exceptions and that any
party with standing, including Seller, shall have the right to take any and all
legal actions necessary to compel Purchasers specific performance of this
covenant, it being acknowledged that damages at law would be an inadequate
remedy. The preceding sentence shall survive Closing.
2. Preliminary Evidence of Title. Purchaser shall obtain at its sole cost and
expense the following documents to evidence the condition of Seller's title to
the Property and Purchaser shall provide Seller with a copy of such documents as
the same are received by Purchaser:
(1) a commitment (the Title Commitment) for an ALTA Form B (1987) Owners Title
Insurance Policy proposing to insure Purchaser and committing to insure the
Property in the amount of the Purchase Price, issued by Old Republic National
Title Insurance Company through the office of Trident Abstract Co., Inc., with
an address of P.O. Box 858, Charleston, South Carolina, 29402 (the Title
Insurer).
(2) written results of searches (the UCC Searches) conducted by a company
reasonably acceptable to Purchaser of the records of the County Recorder and
Secretary of State of the State in which the Property is located for Uniform
Commercial Code Financing Statements, tax liens and the like in either the name
of Seller, the Property or any other name or location reasonably requested by
Purchaser, effective as of a date after the date of this Agreement;
(3) legible copies of all documents of record referred to in the Title
Commitment or disclosed by the UCC Searches, and all other documents evidencing
or relating to matters reflected in the Title Commitment or the UCC Searches;
and
(4) a current survey (the Survey) of the Property certified to Purchaser and the
Title Insurer (and such other persons or entities as Purchaser may designate) by
a surveyor in the State in which the Property is located.
3. Title Defects. If the Title Commitment, UCC Searches or Survey (or any
revision or update of any of them) discloses exceptions to title or other
matters to which Purchaser objects, Purchaser shall so notify Seller at least
ten (10) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Due Diligence Period, as
hereinafter defined, and Seller shall have until the day prior to the expiration
of the Initial Due Diligence Period (Seller's Cure Period) to notify Purchaser
whether it will have such exception to title removed, bonded over or corrected.
If within Seller's Cure Period, Seller fails to so notify Purchaser that it will
have each such unpermitted exception removed, bonded over or corrected as
aforesaid, Purchaser may, at its option, either (i) terminate this Agreement and
immediately receive from the Escrowee the Earnest Money, in which event this
Agreement, without further action of the parties, shall be terminated and be
null and void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations
under this Agreement, or (ii) elect to accept title to the Property as it then
is. Failure by the Purchaser to elect to terminate this Agreement within the
time period specified shall be deemed acceptance by the Purchaser of title to
the Property subject to all matters disclosed in the Title Commitment, UCC
Searches or Survey and all such matters shall be deemed to be Permitted
Exceptions.
4. CLOSING.
1. Closing Date. The Closing of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement
shall occur at 10:00 a.m. Charleston, South Carolina time fifteen (15) days
after the expiration of the last to occur of (i) the Initial Due Diligence
Period (ii) the First Extension Period or (iii) the Second Extension Period, all
as hereinafter defined, or earlier with the written notice of Purchaser, which
notice shall be given at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed Closing. The
Closing shall occur at the offices of Seller or Seller's counsel, or at such
other time and place as Seller and Purchaser shall agree in writing.
The Closing Date shall be the date of Closing.
2. Closing Documents.
(1) At Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a copy of each of the
following:
(1) a special warranty deed, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions,
sufficient to transfer and convey to Purchaser fee simple title to the Property
as required by this Agreement, and otherwise in form reasonably acceptable to
the Escrowee;
(2) any and all affidavits, certificates or other documents reasonably and
customarily required by the Title Insurer in order to enable it to issue an
Owners Title Insurance Policy without exception for parties in possession or
mechanics liens created by Seller;
(3) a copy of such evidence of Seller's power and authority as the Title Insurer
reasonably requires;
(4) Seller's nonforeign affidavit, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C;
(2) Purchaser. At Closing, Purchaser shall deliver or cause to be delivered to

3. Closing Prorations and Adjustments. A statement of prorations and other
adjustments shall be prepared by Purchaser in conformity with the provisions of
this Agreement and submitted to Seller for review and approval not less than two
(2) business days prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of prorations,
Purchaser shall be deemed the owner of the Property on the Closing Date,
provided Seller receives the Cash Balance from Purchaser by 2:00 p.m.
Charleston, South Carolina time on the Closing Date. Real estate taxes,
assessments, special taxes, special assessments and other tax or assessment
attributable to the Property through the Closing Date shall be prorated and
adjusted as of the Closing Date. If the tax statements for the fiscal year
during which the Closing Date occurs are not finally determined, then the tax
figures for the immediately prior fiscal year shall be used for the purposes of
prorating taxes on the Closing Date, with a further adjustment to be made after
the Closing Date as soon as the tax figures are finalized.
4. Closing Costs. Purchaser shall pay the cost of title insurance premiums
(including the cost of endorsements thereto), survey costs, recording charges
for the deed and one half of any fees charged by Escrowee in connection with the
Escrow Instructions. Transfer taxes, recording charges for lien releases and one

the fees of their respective attorneys.

possession of the Property, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

destruction which Seller reasonably believes would cost in excess of $50,000 to
repair), Seller shall provide Purchaser with written notice of such casualty and
Purchaser shall have the option either to terminate this Agreement or to
consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement notwithstanding such
condemnation, destruction or material damage. If Purchaser elects to consummate

7. DUE DILIGENCE.
1. Initial Due Diligence Period. Purchaser shall have between the date hereof
and 5:00 p.m. Charleston, South Carolina time on the date which is ninety (90)
days from the date of this Agreement (the Initial Due Diligence Period) to
conduct such due diligence review of the Property and such other material it
deems appropriate. If Purchaser shall reasonably determine that it does not wish
to purchase the Property based on the results of such due diligence, Purchaser
shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof
to Seller prior to the expiration of the Initial Due Diligence Period and
thereafter Seller and Purchaser shall have no further obligations or liabilities
to each other hereunder, except as stated herein. If Purchaser fails to give
such notice prior to the expiration of the Initial Due Diligence Period, then it
shall deposit an additional Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) (the Additional
Deposit) in escrow with the Escrowee and shall conclusively be deemed to be
satisfied with the results its diligence other than receipt of a building permit

Section 7 and the Earnest Money shall become non-refundable to the Purchaser and
the property of the Seller, except as expressly set forth hereunder.
2. Extension of Initial Due Diligence Period. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in the Agreement provided that Purchaser makes the Additional
Deposit and applies for and diligently pursues obtaining a building permit from
the City of Charleston, the Initial Due Diligence Period shall be extended for
thirty (30) days (the First Extension Period). If, despite Purchasers diligent
efforts, the building permit has not been obtained prior to the expiration of
the First Extension Period, Purchaser shall have the right, to extend the First
Extension Period for an additional period of thirty (30) days (the Second
Extension Period) by so notifying Seller in writing and depositing prior to the
expiration of the First Extension Period an additional deposit of Ten Thousand
Dollars ($10,000.00) (the Second Additional Deposit) in escrow with the
Escrowee. If, despite Purchasers diligent efforts, the application for a
building permit is denied, the Earnest Money shall be refunded to Purchaser and
this Agreement shall be null and void without further recourse to either party
except for those provisions which are expressly intended to survive hereunder.
The Earnest Money shall otherwise be nonfundable after the expiration of the
Initial Due Diligence Period.
3. Inspection. During the Initial Due Diligence Period, Purchaser and its
agents, engineers, surveyors, appraisers, auditors and other representatives
shall have the right to enter upon the Property, provided Purchaser is
accompanied by a representative or agent of Seller, to inspect, examine, survey,
obtain engineering inspections and environmental studies, appraise, and
otherwise do that which, in the opinion of Purchaser, is necessary to determine
the boundaries, acreage and condition of the Property and to determine the
suitability of the Property for the uses intended by Purchaser. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Purchaser shall (i) restore any damage caused by its entrance
onto or inspection of the Property to the condition that the Property was in

Seller certificates of insurance evidencing such insurance reasonably required
by Seller and listing Seller and Purchaser as additional insureds thereunder.
4. Liens and Indemnity. Purchaser shall keep the Property free and clear of any
liens and will indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any
and all loss, costs, actual damage or third party claims in any way arising from
Purchasers inspections or examinations of the Property prior to the Closing
Date, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by Seller as a result of
such entry or investigation by or on behalf of the Purchaser. This indemnity
obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.
5. Return Materials. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 7,
Purchaser shall return all materials provided by Seller to Purchaser pertaining
to the Property or obtained by Purchaser in its due diligence as a condition
precedent to receiving the Earnest Money from the Escrowee.
8. BROKERAGE.
Seller agrees to pay the brokerage commission due for services
rendered in connection with the sale and purchase of the Property to Elcan &
Associates Inc. and Retail Properties, Inc. Said brokerage commission shall
become due and payable only upon a successful closing of the transaction
contemplated herein. Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless
for and against any and all claims of all brokers and finders claiming by,
through or under Seller and in any way related to the sale and purchase of the
Property pursuant to this Agreement, including without limitation, attorney's
fees incurred by Purchaser in connection with such claims. Purchaser shall
indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all claims

to the sale and purchase of the Property pursuant to this Agreement, including,
without limitation, attorney's fees incurred by Seller in connection with such
claims.
9. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.
1. Seller's Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, if Seller fails to perform in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, at Purchasers option, either (i) the Earnest Money shall be returned
to Purchaser as liquidated damages, at which time this Agreement shall be null
and void and neither party shall have any rights or obligations under this
Agreement, or (ii) Purchaser may waive such default and close. In the event that
Purchaser elects option (i) above, Purchasers right to receive the Earnest Money
shall be Purchasers sole and exclusive remedy against Seller. Further, Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that (w) the Earnest Money is a reasonable estimate of
and bears a reasonable relationship to the damages that would be suffered by
Purchaser as a result of the failure of the Closing to occur due to a default by
Seller under this Agreement; (x) the actual damages suffered by Purchaser as a
result of such failure to occur of the Closing due to a default of Seller under
this Agreement would be extremely difficult and impractical to determine; (y)
Seller 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 Seller under
this Agreement; and (z) the Earnest Money shall be and constitutes valid
liquidated damages.
2. Purchaser's Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, if Purchaser fails to perform in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, the Earnest Money shall be forfeited to Seller as liquidated
damages (which shall be Seller's sole and exclusive remedy against Purchaser),
at which time this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have
any rights or obligations under this Agreement. Seller acknowledges and agrees
that (i) 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; (ii) 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; (iii)
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 (iv) the Earnest Money shall be and constitutes valid
liquidated damages.
