                  (a) New Loan. The Buyer must be able to obtain the loan, if
                      any, referenced in Section [(g) (ii). Buyer must be able
                      to obtain a firm commitment for this new loan on or at end
                      of inspection period, effective through the date of
                      closing. Buyer agrees to use its best efforts to secure
                      such commitment and to advise Seller immediately upon
                      receipt of Lender's decision.
                  (b) Qualification for Financing. If Buyer is to assume any
                      indebtedness in connection with payment of the Purchase
                      Price, Buyer agrees to use its best efforts to qualify for
                      the assumption. Should Buyer fail to qualify, Buyer shall
                      notify Seller in writing immediately upon lender's
                      decision, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate, and
                      Buyer shall receive a return of Earnest Money.
                  (c) Title Examination. After the date of execution of the
                      Agreement by Seller, Buyer shall, at Buyer's expense,
                      cause a title examination to be made of the Property
                      before the end of the Examination Period, as defined in
                      Section 1(d). In the event that such title examination
                      shall show that Seller's title is not good, marketable,
                      fee simple and insurable, then the Buyer shall immediately
                      notify the Seller in writing of all such title defects and
                      exceptions, as of the date the Buyer learns of the
                      defects, and Seller shall have thirty (30) days to cure
                      said noticed defects. If Seller does not cure the defects
                      or objections within thirty (30) days of notice thereof,
                      the Buyer may terminate this Agreement and receive a
                      return of Earnest Money (notwithstanding that the
                      Examination Period may have expired). If Buyer is to
                      purchase title insurance, the insuring company must be
                      licensed to do business in the state in which the property
                      is located. Title to the Property must be insurable at
                      regular rates, subject only to standard exceptions and
                      Permitted Exceptions.
                  (d) Intended Use. Seller represents and warrants that, to the
                      best of the Seller's knowledge, use of the Property for
                      its Intended Use will not violate any private restrictions
                      or governmental regulations. If Buyer determines, prior to
                      the date of Closing, that use of the property for its
                      Intended Use will violate any such private restrictions or
                      governmental regulations, the Buyer may terminate the
                      Agreement by written notice and receive a return of the
                      Earnest Money, and neither party shall have any further
                      obligations in connection with this Agreement.
                  (e) Same condition. If the Property is not in substantially
                      the same condition as of the date of the offer, reasonable
                      wear and tear excepted, then the Buyer may terminate the
                      Agreement and receive a return of the Earnest Money.
                  (f) Inspections. Buyer, its agents or representatives, at
                      Buyer's expense and at reasonable times during normal
                      business hours, shall have the right to enter upon the
                      Property for the purpose of inspecting, examining,

                      timber cruises, and surveying the Property. Buyer shall
                      also have a right to review and inspect all leases,
                      contracts or other agreements affecting or relating
                      directly to the Property and shall be entitled to review
                      such books and records of Seller as relate directly to the
                      operation and maintenance of the Property. Buyer assumes
                      all responsibility for the acts of itself, its agents or
                      representatives in exercising its rights

                      from the date of acceptance through the end of the
                      Examination Period to perform the above inspections,
                      examinations and testing to determine if the Property is
                      suitable for the Intended Use. If, prior to the expiration
                      for the Examination Period, Buyer determines that the
                      Property is unsuitable, in Buyer's sole discretion, and
                      provides written notice to Seller thereof, then this
