               (a) PURCHASER'S TERMINATION. Provided that Purchaser is not then
in material breach of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate, upon

               (c) PURCHASER'S REMEDIES. If Seller materially breaches this
Agreement, Purchaser shall be entitled to pursue the remedy of specific
performance and the return of any deposit (and any interest accrued thereon)
from Seller and Seller shall be liable to Purchaser for such actual costs and
expenses (which shall include, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
and costs) of enforcing the rights of Purchaser under this Agreement. This
Article XI(c) shall survive the Closing.


<PAGE>

               (d) SELLER'S REMEDIES. If Purchaser breaches this Agreement,
Seller shall be entitled to pursue all remedies permitted herein and by law,
including, without any limitation, the remedy of specific performance and the
retention of any deposit (and any interest accrued thereon) from Purchaser.

               (e) INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES.

                       (i) If Purchaser (the"Indemnitee") becomes aware of any
               matter for which it believes it is entitled to indemnification
               under Section 8.4, hereof that involves (i) any claim made
               against the Indemnitee or (ii) the commencement of any action,
               suit, investigation, arbitration, or similar proceeding against
               the Indemnitee, the Indemnitee will give Seller (the
               "Indemnifying Party") prompt written notice of such claim or
               commencement of such action, suit, investigation, arbitration, or
               similar proceeding. Such notice will (A) provide (with reasonable
               specificity) the basis on which indemnification is being
               asserted, (B) set forth the actual or estimated amount of damages
               for which indemnification is being asserted, if known, and (C) be
               accompanied by copies of all relevant pleadings, demands and
               other papers served on the Indemnitee.

                       (ii) The Indemnifying Party will have a period of 30-days
               after the delivery of each notice required by Section 11.2(a)
               hereof during which to respond to such notice. If the
               Indemnifying Party elects to defend the claim described in such
               notice or does not respond within such 30-day period, the
               Indemnifying Party will be obligated to compromise or defend (and
               will control the defense of) such claim, at is own expense and by
               counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably
               satisfactory to the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee will cooperate
               fully with the Indemnifying Party and counsel for the
               Indemnifying Party in the defense against any such claim and the
               Indemnitee will have the right to participate at its own expense
               in the defense of any such claim. If the Indemnifying party
               responds within such 30-day period and elects not to defend such
               claim, the Indemnitee will be free to compromise or defend (and
               control the defense of) such claim and to pursue such remedies as
               may be available to the Indemnitee under applicable law.

                       (iii) Any compromise or settlement of any claim (whether
               defended by the Indemnitee or by Indemnifying Party) will require
               the prior written consent of the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying
               Party.

                       (iv) Any reasonable costs or expenses incurred and paid
               by the Indemnitee in connection with the exercise of any of its
               rights under this Section 10.4 or with respect to a matter for
               which it is indemnified under Section 8.4 of this Agreement shall
               be paid by the Indemnifying Party on demand and if the
               Indemnifying Party fails to pay such amounts demanded within five
               (5) days of demand, the amounts demanded will bear interest at
               the lower fifteen (15%) per annum or the maximum applicable
               lawful rate; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Indemnifying Party's
               obligation to pay such costs, expenses and interest shall not



<PAGE>

               apply for any period claimed in the event that Indemnifying Party
               obtains a final judgement or order that the Indemnitee is not
               entitled to indemnification or to payment of costs or expenses
               under the provisions of Section 8.4 or 10.4 of this Agreement.


                                   ARTICLE XII
                                 CONFIDENTIALITY

copy of such writing to the other party for its review and comment (but not its
approval). Either Seller or Purchaser may request a meeting to discuss any such
writing. The provisions of this Section 12.1 will survive the Closing.

                                   ASSIGNMENT

               SECTION 15.1 ASSIGNMENT. No party shall have any right to assign
this Agreement or any portion thereof.

                                   ARTICLE XVI
                                    BROKERAGE

               SECTION 16.1 BROKERS. Purchaser and Seller represent that they
have not dealt with any brokers, finders or salesmen, in connection with this
transaction, and agree to indemnify, defend and hold each other harmless from
and against any and all loss, cost, damage, liability or expense, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, which either party may sustain, incur or be exposed
to by reason of any claim for fees or commissions made through the other party.
The provisions of this Article XVI will survive any Closing.


                                  ARTICLE XVII
                            [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.]



<PAGE>

                                  ARTICLE XVIII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

               SECTION 18.1 WAIVERS. No waiver of any breach of any covenant or
provisions contained herein will be deemed a waiver of any preceding or
succeeding breach thereof, or of any other covenant or provision contained
herein. No extension of time for performance of any obligation or act will be
deemed an extension of the time for performance of any other obligation or act.

               SECTION 18.2 RECOVERY OF CERTAIN FEES. In the event a party
hereto files any action or suit against another party hereto by reason of any
breach of any of the covenants, agreements or provisions contained in this
Agreement, then in that event the prevailing party will be entitled to have and
recover certain fees from the other party including all reasonable attorneys'
fees and costs resulting therefrom. For purposes of this Agreement, the term
"attorneys' fees" or "attorneys' fees and costs" shall mean the fees and
expenses of counsel to the parties hereto, which may include printing,
photostatting, duplicating and other expenses, air freight charges, and fees
billed for law clerks, paralegals and other persons not admitted to the bar but
performing services under the supervision of an attorney, and the costs and fees
incurred in connection with the enforcement or collection of any judgment
obtained in any such proceeding. The provisions of this Section 18.2 shall
survive the entry of any judgment, and shall not merge, or be deemed to have
merged, into any judgment.

               SECTION 18.3 CONSTRUCTION. Headings at the beginning of each
article and section are solely for the convenience of the parties and are not a
part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context of this Agreement, the
singular will include the plural and the masculine will include the feminine and
vice versa. This Agreement will not be construed as if it had been prepared by
one of the parties, but rather as if both parties had prepared the same. All
exhibits and schedules referred to in this Agreement are attached and
incorporated by this reference, and any capitalized term used in any exhibit or
schedule which is not defined in such exhibit or schedule will have the meaning
attributable to such term in the body of this Agreement. In the event the date
on which Purchaser or Seller is required to take any action under the terms of
this Agreement is not a Business Day, the action will be taken on the next
succeeding Business Day.

               SECTION 18.4 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in
multiple counterparts, each of which, when assembled to include an original
signature for each party contemplated to sign this Agreement, will constitute a
complete and fully executed original. All such fully executed original
counterparts will collectively constitute a single agreement.

               SECTION 18.5 SEVERABILITY. If any term or other provision of this
Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law
or public policy, all of the other conditions and provisions of this Agreement
will nevertheless remain in full force and effect, so long as the economic or
legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any
adverse manner to either party. Upon such determination that any term or other
provision is


<PAGE>

invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will
negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to reflect the original
intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end
that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

               SECTION 18.6 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement is the final
expression of, and contains the entire agreement between, the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior understandings
with respect thereto. This Agreement may not be modified, changed, supplemented
or terminated, nor may any obligations hereunder be waived, except by written
instrument, signed by the party to be charged or by its agent duly authorized in
writing, or as otherwise expressly permitted herein.

               SECTION 18.7 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE CONSTRUED,
PERFORMED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY
IS MANDATORY. SELLER AND PURCHASER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION
OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND
DETERMINED IN A STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK.

               SECTION 18.8 NO RECORDING. The parties hereto agree that neither
this Agreement nor any affidavit or memorandum concerning it will be recorded
and any recording of this Agreement or any such affidavit or memorandum by
Purchaser will be deemed a default by Purchaser hereunder.

               SECTION 18.9 FURTHER ACTIONS. The parties agree to execute such

the members of Purchaser individually, Seller and, to the extent applicable, the
Companies and the manager under the Management Agreement, and their respective
permitted successors and assigns is or shall be entitled to bring any action to
