Property Documents to the Purchaser or to advise the Purchaser in writing that
the requested Additional Property Documents either do not exist or are not
Available Property Documents. Purchaser reserves the right to reasonably request
Additional Property Documents from Seller at any time prior to the Closing Date
and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such Additional
Property Documents to Purchaser within three (3) Business Days of Purchaser's
request, provided that any additional requests by Purchaser (which are made
after the expiration of the five (5) Business Day Period set forth in this
Section) shall not extend the Due Diligence Period.

      Section 5.3 INSPECTION OF BOOKS AND RECORDS.

      Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall have
the right to inspect, and the Seller shall make available to the Purchaser for
inspection, copies of all documents and agreements in the possession or control
of the Seller which pertain to the construction, ownership, use, operation,
occupancy, maintenance, operation or leasing of the Real Property, including
correspondence with Tenants ("SELLER'S RECORDS"). The Seller shall allow such
inspections to be conducted during normal business hours upon reasonable notice
to the Seller and shall make the Seller's Records available to the Purchaser at
the Real Property. The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that Seller's
Records will be provided, and all other documents and written materials
delivered by the Seller to the Purchaser will be provided, without any
representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or
accuracy of the facts, presumptions, conclusions or other matters contained
therein, or the Purchaser's ability


                                       14
<Page>

to rely thereon, except for the representations and warranties made by the
Seller in ARTICLE VI. The Purchaser has been expressly advised by the Seller to
conduct an independent investigation and inspection of the Real Property
utilizing such experts as the Purchaser deems to be necessary for an independent
assessment of all liability and risk with respect to the Property. The Purchaser
shall not, without the Seller's prior consent (which the Seller shall not
unreasonably withhold or delay), contact any other Tenant.

      Section 5.4 TITLE EXAMINATION AND SURVEY.

            (a) TITLE COMMITMENT AND SURVEY. Promptly after the Effective Date,
the Purchaser, at its expense, shall cause to be prepared a current, effective
commitment for owner's title insurance for the Real Property (the "TITLE
COMMITMENT") issued by Escrow Agent, or another recognized title insurance
company acceptable to the Purchaser, which names the Purchaser as the proposed
insured. The Purchaser shall also have the right, at its expense, during the Due
Diligence Period to cause to be prepared a current ALTA/ACSM survey of the Real
Property (the "SURVEY"). On or before the later to occur of (i) two (2) Business
Days after Purchaser's receipt thereof, or (ii) the expiration of the Due
Diligence Period (the "TITLE REVIEW DEADLINE"), the Purchaser shall deliver to
the Seller a copy of the Title Commitment, accompanied by true, complete, and
legible copies of all documents referred to in Schedule B to the Title
Commitment. On or before the later to occur of (i) two (2) Business Days after
Purchaser's receipt thereof, or (ii) the expiration of the Due Diligence Period
(the "SURVEY DEADLINE"), the Purchaser shall deliver the Survey to the Seller.

            (b) PURCHASER'S TITLE OBJECTIONS. If the Purchaser, for any reason
whatsoever, objects to the condition of the Seller's title to the Real Property,
it shall do so by notifying the Seller in writing on or before the Title Review
Deadline concurrently with its delivery of a copy of the Title Commitment to the
Seller. If the Purchaser does not object to the condition of the Seller's title
to the Real Property on or before the Title Review Deadline, the Purchaser shall
be conclusively deemed to have accepted the condition of title as set forth in
the Title Commitment and to have approved all exceptions to title described in
Schedule B to the Title Commitment other than the exceptions for unfiled
mechanics' liens, Mortgages and other liens which may be removed by the payment
of money. The Seller shall be obligated to pay off out of the proceeds of the
Purchase Price any monetary encumbrances on the Property without a limit or cap
of any kind whatsoever; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) Seller may, at its option,
bond off (rather than pay off) any mechanic's or materialmen's liens, so long as
said process results in the Escrow Agent removing said liens as an exception to
Purchaser's title insurance policy, and (ii) Seller has no obligation to
discharge Permitted Exceptions. Within three (3) Business Days after receipt of
the Purchaser's notice of title objections and a copy of the Title Commitment,
the Seller shall either agree in writing to cure such objections or shall notify
the Purchaser in writing that the Seller is unable or unwilling to do so. If the
Seller timely notifies the Purchaser that it is unable or unwilling to cure the
title objections, the Purchaser may terminate this Agreement within five (5)
Business Days thereafter by giving notice of termination to the Seller, in which
case this Agreement shall terminate with the same effect as if the Purchaser had
delivered the Due Diligence Notice pursuant to SECTION 5.5. If the Purchaser
does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding sentence, the
Purchaser shall be conclusively deemed to have waived the title objections, the
title objections shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions and the


                                       15
<Page>

Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase the Property in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement without a reduction in the Purchase Price. If the Seller
timely notifies the Purchaser that it will cure the title objections, such title
objections shall not be Permitted Exceptions and the Seller shall use its best
efforts to cure such objections on or before the Closing Date; provided that the
cost to Seller to cure such objections does not exceed Two Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($250,000) in the aggregate. Any new exceptions to title
contained in any update of the Title Commitment shall not be Permitted
Exceptions unless approved in writing by the Purchaser.

            (c) PURCHASER'S SURVEY OBJECTIONS. If the Purchaser, for any reason
whatsoever, objects to any matter disclosed by the Survey, it shall do so by
notifying the Seller in writing on or before the Survey Deadline concurrently
with its delivery of a copy of the Survey to the Seller. If the Purchaser does
not object to a matter disclosed by the Survey on or before the Survey Deadline,
the Purchaser shall be conclusively deemed to have accepted the Survey and to
have approved all matters disclosed by the Survey. Within five (5) Business Days
after receipt of the Purchaser's notice of survey objections and a copy of the
Survey, the Seller shall either agree in writing to cure such objections or
shall notify the Purchaser in writing that the Seller is unable or unwilling to
do so. If the Seller timely notifies the Purchaser that it is unable or
unwilling to cure the survey objections, the Purchaser may terminate this
Agreement within five (5) Business Days thereafter by giving notice of
termination to the Seller, in which case this Agreement shall terminate with the
same effect as if the Purchaser had delivered the Due Diligence Notice pursuant
to SECTION 5.5. If the Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to
the preceding sentence, the Purchaser shall be conclusively deemed to have
waived the survey objections, such survey objections shall be deemed to be
Permitted Exceptions and the Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase the
Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement without a reduction in
the Purchase Price. If the Seller timely notifies the Purchaser that it will
cure the survey objections, such survey objections shall not be Permitted
Exceptions and the Seller shall use its best efforts to cure such survey
objections on or before the Closing Date; provided that the cost to Seller to
cure such survey objections does not exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($250,000) in the aggregate.

      Section 5.5 TERMINATION.

      The Purchaser may terminate this Agreement at any time before the end of
the Due Diligence Period by giving the Seller and the Escrow Agent written
notification (the "DUE DILIGENCE NOTICE") that Purchaser elects not to
consummate the purchase of the Property in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. The Purchaser shall have the absolute right, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to determine whether to give the Due Diligence Notice. If the Due
Diligence Notice is timely given, the Purchaser shall so notify the Escrow
Agent, the Escrow Agent shall promptly return the Fund to the Purchaser, and,
except as otherwise provided in this Section, no party shall have any further
liability to any other party under this Agreement. If this Agreement is
terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Purchaser agrees,
within fifteen (15) days after the end of the Due Diligence Period, to deliver
to the Seller copies of all surveys, written engineering and environmental
reports prepared by third parties for the Purchaser during the Due Diligence
Period and to return to the Seller all Information (as defined


                                       16
<Page>

in SECTION 18.7) previously delivered by the Seller to the Purchaser. All third
party reports and studies shall be delivered to the Seller for information only
without any right to rely thereon.

      Section 5.6 EXTENSION OF DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD.

      If the Seller fails to deliver all Available Property Documents to the
Purchaser (or fails to deliver a notice that certain Additional Property
Documents requested by the Purchaser are not within Seller's possession or
control) within the period of five (5) Business Days required by SECTION 5.2
then the Due Diligence Period shall be extended on a day-for-day basis by the
number of calendar days elapsing between the end of the five (5) Business Day
period and the earliest day on which all Available Property Documents (or a
notice that certain Additional Property Documents requested by the Purchaser are
not within Seller's possession or control) have been delivered to the Purchaser.

                                       23
<Page>

(l/2) of the cost of appointing the third Arbiter, including costs of appointing
the third Arbiter through the American Arbitration Association, and of paying
the third Arbiter's fee. The third Arbiter, however selected, shall be a person
who has not previously acted in any capacity for either party. Within five (5)
business days following selection of the third Arbiter, and sooner if possible,
the Arbiters shall review the Seller's Estimate (as hereinafter defined),
consult with the parties, and make an independent written estimate of the cost
to cure all breaches or failures, as the case may be. The decision of the
Arbiters as to the cost to cure all breaches or failures, as the case may be,
must be by a unanimous vote or if the Arbiters cannot reach a unanimous decision
as to the cost to cure all breaches or failures, as the case may be, the cost to
cure shall be the average of the three estimates; provided, however, that any
estimate which differs from the middle estimate by more than ten percent (10%)
shall be disregarded. If only one estimate is disregarded, the remaining two
estimates shall be added together and divided by two; the resulting quotient
shall be the cost to cure all breaches or failures, as the case may be. If two
estimates are disregarded, the remaining estimate shall be the cost to cure.
After making their cost determination (the "ARBITERS' COST DETERMINATION"), the
Arbiters shall promptly deliver the Arbiters' Cost Determination to Seller and
Purchaser. The Arbiters' Cost Determination shall be binding upon Seller and
Purchaser and shall be enforceable as provided in Chapter 43 of Title 16 of the
D.C. Code (1981 ed.) or any subsequent enactments concerning binding
arbitration. If any of the Arbiters resigns, or is unable or refuses to perform
his duties, Seller and Purchaser shall promptly agree upon and retain a
replacement Arbiter having the qualifications set forth in the definition of
"ARBITER". The Arbiters shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and
shall not have the power to add to, subtract from, or otherwise modify such
provisions.

            (b) If one or more Post-Closing Willful Breaches are such that they
cannot be cured by the payment of a sum of money, then Seller shall be required
to pay the sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) to Purchaser within fifteen
(15) days after the breaches are discovered by Purchaser and disclosed by
Purchaser to Seller or disclosed to Purchaser by Seller. If one or more
Post-Closing Non-Willful Breaches or Post-Closing Failures are such that they
cannot be cured by the payment of a sum of money, then Seller shall be required
to pay the sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) to Purchaser
within fifteen (15) days after the breaches or failures are discovered by
Purchaser and disclosed by Purchaser or disclosed to Purchaser by Seller. The
payments under this Section shall be paid to Purchaser as liquidated damages for
all loss, damages and expenses suffered by Purchaser, it being agreed that
Purchasers' damages are impossible to ascertain.

            (c) In the event of the enforcement of any obligations of or
collection of any payments due from Seller under this ARTICLE VI, then Seller,
its successors or assigns, shall pay to Purchaser on demand any and all
expenses, including legal expenses and attorneys' fees, incurred or paid by
Purchaser in collecting any amount payable hereunder or in enforcing Purchaser's
rights hereunder, whether or not any legal proceeding is commenced hereunder or
thereunder.

            (d) If Seller and Purchaser agree on an Arbiter pursuant to the
provisions of this ARTICLE VI, then each of the parties shall bear one-half
(1/2) of the cost of such Arbiter.


                                       24
<Page>

            (e) No disputes other than those related to cost estimates under
this ARTICLE VI shall be resolved by Arbiter(s).

            (f) Wherever in this ARTICLE VI Seller is required to pay One
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) to Purchaser (in addition to the Pre-Closing
Breach Cap or Pre-Closing Failure Cap), such amount is being paid to Purchaser
as liquidated damages for all loss, damages and expenses suffered by Purchaser,
it being agreed that Purchaser's damages are impossible to ascertain.

      Section 6.7 PRE-CLOSING BREACHES.

      If there are one or more Pre-Closing Breaches, then Seller shall use best
efforts to cure such Pre-Closing Breaches; PROVIDED, that (i) Seller shall not
be obligated to spend more than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the
aggregate to cure such Pre-Closing Breaches (the "PRE-CLOSING BREACH CAP"), and
(ii) all Pre-Closing Breaches can be cured with best efforts by Seller during
the Pre-Closing Mandatory Cure Period. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, if there are one or more Pre-Closing Breaches, the reduction in the
Purchase Price set forth in SECTION 3.1 shall apply.

            (a) If the cost to cure all Pre-Closing Breaches is reasonably
expected to exceed the Pre-Closing Breach Cap then Seller may elect whether or
not to incur such excess costs to effect a cure. If Seller elects to cure all
Pre-Closing Breaches, then Seller may adjourn the Closing to effect a cure,
subject to the reduction in the Purchase Price set forth in SECTION 3.1;
provided that in no event shall the Closing be adjourned beyond the Outside
Closing Date. If Seller elects not to cure all Pre-Closing Breaches, then Seller
shall so notify Purchaser, which notice shall include detailed evidence
establishing Seller's expected cost to cure, within one (1) Business Day after
Seller learns that the cost to cure all Pre-Closing Breaches is reasonably
expected to exceed the Pre-Closing Breach Cap. Purchaser may then either: (i)
proceed with the Closing without Seller curing all Pre-Closing Breaches in which
case Purchaser shall receive a credit toward the Purchase Price in the amount of
(x) the Pre-Closing Breach Cap plus One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) if
the Pre-Closing Breaches are within Seller's reasonable control, or (y) the
Pre-Closing Breach Cap if the Pre-Closing Breaches are beyond Seller's control;
or (ii) terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, whereupon
Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Fund to Purchaser, this Agreement will
terminate and neither party shall have any further rights, obligations or
liabilities hereunder, except for obligations which specifically survive the
termination of this Agreement and except that Seller shall pay any out-of-pocket
costs and expenses of Purchaser (including without limitation legal fees and
expenses) incurred in connection with Purchaser's proposed acquisition of the
Real Property and/or due diligence not to exceed One Hundred Fifty Thousand and
00/100 Dollars ($150,000.00) (the "PURCHASER'S OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS").

            (b) If the cost to cure all Pre-Closing Breaches is reasonably
expected to be less than the Pre-Closing Breach Cap but cannot reasonably be
cured by Seller's best efforts to effect such cure during the Pre-Closing
Mandatory Cure Period, then Seller may elect whether or not to extend Closing to
effect a cure, subject to the reduction in the Purchase Price pursuant to
SECTION 3.1, provided that in no event shall the Closing be adjourned beyond the
Outside Closing


                                       25

Date. If Seller elects not to cure all Pre-Closing Breaches then Seller shall so
notify Purchaser, which notice shall include detailed evidence establishing
Seller's expected time to cure and an estimate (the "SELLER'S Estimate") of the
cost to cure all Pre-Closing Breaches within one (1) Business Day after Seller
learns that the time to cure all Pre-Closing Breaches is reasonably expected to
exceed the Pre-Closing Mandatory Cure Period. If the Purchaser agrees with the
Seller's Estimate then, Purchaser may either (i) proceed with the Closing, in
which case Purchaser shall receive a credit toward the Purchase Price in an
amount equal to the sum of (x) the Seller's Estimate (regardless of whether or
not Purchaser elects to cure) and (y) One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000);
or (ii) terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, whereupon
Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Fund to Purchaser, this Agreement will
terminate and neither party shall have any further rights, obligations or
liabilities hereunder, except for obligations which specifically survive the
termination of this Agreement and except that Seller shall pay Purchaser's
Out-of-Pocket Costs. If the Purchaser disagrees with the Seller's Estimate, then
Purchaser shall so notify Seller and during the five (5) Business Day period
immediately following such notice, Seller and Purchaser shall work in good faith
to agree on either the cost to cure all Pre-Closing Breaches or, failing such
agreement, an Arbiter.

                  (i) If Purchaser and Seller agree on the Arbiter, then within
the five (5) Business Day period following the Arbiter's retention, the Arbiter
shall review the Seller's Estimate and make an independent written determination
(the "ARBITER'S ESTIMATE") of the cost to cure all Pre-Closing Breaches. After
making the Arbiter's Estimate, the Arbiter shall promptly deliver such Arbiter's
Estimate to Seller and Purchaser. The Arbiter's Estimate shall be binding upon
Seller and Purchaser but shall not exceed the Pre-Closing Breach Cap. Once the
Arbiter's Estimate has been determined, Purchaser may either (a) proceed with
the Closing, in which case Purchaser shall receive a credit toward the Purchase
Price in an amount equal to the sum of (x) the Arbiter's Estimate (regardless of
whether or not Purchaser elects to cure) and (y) One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000); or (b) terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller and Escrow
Agent, whereupon Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Fund to Purchaser,
this Agreement will terminate and neither party shall have any further rights,
obligations or liabilities hereunder, except for obligations which specifically
survive the termination of this Agreement and except that Seller shall pay
Purchaser's Out-of-Pocket Costs.

                  (ii) If Purchaser and Seller cannot agree on either the cost
to cure or the Arbiter within said five (5) Business Day period, then Purchaser
or Seller may deliver a notice of such impasse (the "IMPASSE NOTICE") to the
other party. Purchaser and Seller shall then comply with the Arbitration
Procedures. The Arbiters' Cost Determination shall not exceed the Pre-Closing
Breach Cap. Once the Arbiters' Cost Determination has been determined, Purchaser
may either (a) proceed with the Closing, in which case Purchaser shall receive a
credit toward the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the sum of (x) the
Arbiters' Cost Determination (regardless of whether or not Purchaser elects to
cure) and (y) One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000); or (b) terminate this
Agreement by notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, whereupon Escrow Agent shall
immediately return the Fund to Purchaser, this Agreement will terminate and
neither party shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities
hereunder, except for obligations which specifically survive the termination of
this Agreement and except that Seller shall pay Purchaser's Out-of-Pocket Costs.

            (c) (i) If any of the Pre-Closing Breaches is due to a willful act
or omission of Seller but is such that it cannot be cured by the payment of a
sum of money and is beyond Seller's reasonable control, then Purchaser may
either: (i) proceed with the Closing without Seller curing such Pre-Closing

Purchaser's damages are impossible to ascertain.

      (ii) If any of the Pre-Closing Breaches is due to the negligent or
unintentional act or failure of Seller but is such that it cannot be cured by
the payment of a sum of money and is beyond Seller's reasonable control, then
Purchaser may either: (i) proceed with the Closing without Seller curing such
Pre-Closing Breaches and with Purchaser receiving a credit toward the Purchase
Price in the amount of the Pre-Closing Failure Cap; or (ii) terminate this
Agreement by notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, whereupon Escrow Agent shall

Estimate (regardless of whether or not Purchaser elects to cure).

                  (ii) If Purchaser and Seller cannot agree on either the cost
to cure or the Arbiter within said five (5) Business Day period, then Purchaser
may deliver an Impasse Notice to the Seller. Purchaser and Seller shall then

cure all Post-Closing Failures is reasonably expected to exceed Two Hundred
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) in the aggregate (the "POST-CLOSING FAILURE
CAP") then Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the Post-Closing
Failure Cap (regardless of whether or not Purchaser elects to cure).

            (b) If there are one or more Post-Closing Failures and the cost to
cure all Post-Closing Failures is reasonably expected to be less than the
Post-Closing Failure Cap, then Seller shall provide detailed evidence
establishing the Seller's Estimate of the cost to cure all Post-Closing Failures
within one (1) Business Day after the Post-Closing Failures are discovered by
Purchaser or disclosed to Purchaser by Seller. If Purchaser agrees with the
Seller's Estimate, then the Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the
Seller's Estimate. If the Purchaser disagrees with the Seller's Estimate, then
Purchaser shall so notify Seller and during the five (5) Business Day period
immediately following such notice, Seller and Purchaser shall work in good faith
to agree on either the cost to cure all Post-Closing Failures or, failing such
agreement, an Arbiter.

                  (i) If Purchaser and Seller agree on the Arbiter, then within
five (5) Business Days following the Arbiter's retention, the Arbiter shall
review the Seller's Estimate and make the Arbiter's Estimate of the cost to cure
all Post-Closing Failures. After making the Arbiter's Estimate, the Arbiter
shall promptly deliver such Arbiter's Estimate to Seller and Purchaser. The
Arbiter's Estimate shall be binding upon Seller and Purchaser but shall not
exceed the Post-Closing Failure Cap. Once the Arbiter's Estimate has been
determined, Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the Arbiter's
Estimate (regardless of whether or not Purchaser elects to cure).

purchase of the Property, the Seller shall cooperate with the Purchaser in
prosecuting all insurance claims assigned to the Purchaser at Closing.

            (b) If Purchaser elects not to terminate this Agreement pursuant to
SECTION 12.2(a) or if the cost to repair such damage is less than Two Hundred
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) then Purchaser shall elect one of the
following: (i) Purchaser shall require that Seller commence and diligently
pursue the repair and restoration of the Property to its original condition

rent loss insurance payable with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date)
with respect to such damage and shall pay or credit to the Purchaser the amount
of any deductible or uninsured loss with respect to such Casualty which has not
been repaired or restored; (ii) Purchaser shall require that, at Closing, Seller
assign to the Purchaser all insurance claims and proceeds (other than claims and

Purchaser the amount of any deductible or uninsured loss with respect to such
Casualty without Seller repairing or restoring the Property prior to Closing;
(iii) Purchaser shall require that Seller commence and diligently pursue the
repair and restoration of the Property to its original condition until the
Closing and if such repair and restoration cannot be completed with due
diligence prior to Closing, then Purchaser may require that Seller continue with

automatically adjourned during such period without any reduction of the Purchase
Price; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no event shall the Closing be adjourned beyond

discretion.

      If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any portion of the Building, or all
or any portion of the Real Property which adversely affects or impacts the
occupancy of the Building or access to the Building is taken by eminent domain
or condemnation (or is the subject of a pending taking which has not been
consummated), Seller shall notify Purchaser of such fact and the Purchaser shall
have the option to terminate this Agreement upon notice to the Seller given not
later than ten (10) days after receipt of the Seller's notice. If this Agreement
is so terminated, then neither party shall have any further rights, obligations
or liabilities hereunder except for obligations which specifically survive the
termination of this Agreement and except that the Escrow Agent shall promptly
return the Fund to the Purchaser. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this
Agreement or if the taking or condemnation is such that Purchaser would not have
the right to terminate this Agreement, then the Purchase Price shall not be
reduced, but at Closing Seller shall assign and turn over, and Purchaser shall
be entitled to receive and keep, all awards or other proceeds for such taking by
eminent domain or condemnation. In no event shall Seller settle any pending
taking without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which may be given or

                                  ARTICLE XIV

                       CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS AND PRORATIONS

      Section 14.1 GENERAL.

      All rentals, revenues and other income generated by the Real Property and
all utilities, Real Estate Taxes, maintenance charges and other operating
expenses incurred in connection with the ownership, management and operation of
the Real Property shall be paid or shall be prorated between the Seller and the
Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of this Article. For purposes of the
prorations and adjustments to be made pursuant to this Article, the Seller shall
be deemed to own the Real Property and therefore be entitled to any revenues and
be responsible for any expenses up until midnight of the day preceding the
Closing Date. Any apportionments and prorations which are not expressly provided
for in this Article shall be made in accordance with the customary practice in
Washington D.C. The Escrow Agent shall prepare a schedule of adjustments (the
"CLOSING STATEMENT") before the Proration Date. Any net adjustment in favor of
the Purchaser shall be credited against the Purchase Price at the Closing. Any
net adjustment in favor of the Seller shall be paid in cash or cash equivalent
at the Closing by the Purchaser to the Seller. A copy of the Closing Statement
agreed upon by the Seller and the Purchaser shall be executed by the Seller and
the Purchaser and delivered to the Escrow Agent at the Closing. The prorations
required by this Article shall be subject to post-Closing adjustments as
necessary to reflect later relevant information not available at the Closing and
to correct any errors made at the Closing with respect to such prorations.
Except as otherwise provided in this ARTICLE XIV, such prorations shall be
deemed final and not subject to further post-Closing adjustments if no such
adjustments have been requested by the Purchaser or the Seller within a period
of one (1) year after the Closing. All obligations of the Seller and the
Purchaser under this ARTICLE XIV shall survive the Closing.

      Section 14.2 RENT.

      Rent shall be prorated at the Closing in accordance with the following
provisions:

            (a) MINIMUM RENT. Subject to SECTION 14.2(B) (relating to Delinquent
Rent), Minimum Rent shall be prorated between the Seller and the Purchaser as of
the Proration Date on an accrual basis based on the actual number of days in the
month during which the Proration Date occurs. The Seller shall be entitled to
all Minimum Rent which accrues before the Proration Date and the Purchaser shall
be entitled to all Minimum Rent which accrues on and after the Proration Date.

            (b) DELINQUENT RENT. Delinquent Rent shall be prorated between the
Seller and the Purchaser as of the Proration Date but not until it is actually
collected by the Purchaser


                                       48
<Page>

after the Closing. The Purchaser shall pay to the Seller all Delinquent Rent
collected by the Purchaser after the Closing which is attributable to the period
before the Proration Date, net of the costs of collection (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs). The Seller's share of Delinquent Rent actually
collected by the Purchaser during each month shall be paid to the Seller by the
fifteenth day of the following month. As a part of the Final Closing Adjustment,
any Delinquent Rent which has not as yet been paid shall be assigned to the
Seller, but after the Closing and continuing through and after the Final Closing
Adjustment, without the express written consent of the Purchaser, the Seller
shall not take any action against a Tenant owing Delinquent Rent which would
affect such Tenant's right to occupy the premises leased under its Lease.
Delinquent Rent collected by the Purchaser after the Closing, net of the costs
of collection (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs), shall be applied
in the following order of priority:

                  (1) first, in the case of Delinquent Rent which is less than
31 days overdue as of the Proration Date, against the Tenant's Rent obligations
in the chronological order in which they accrue; and

                  (2) second, in the case of Delinquent Rent which is more than
30 days overdue as of the Proration Date, against the Tenant's Rent obligations
in the inverse chronological order in which they accrue.

            (c) RENT PAYABLE UNDER THE GSA LEASE. The Seller and the Purchaser
recognize that Minimum Rent is payable under the GSA Lease in arrears. If (i)
GSA does not prorate the Minimum Rent payable under the GSA Lease for the month
in which the Closing Date occurs, and (ii) after the Closing Date, GSA pays to
the Seller or Purchaser the entire Minimum Rent payable under the GSA Lease for
the month in which the Closing Date occurs, the Seller or Purchaser shall,
within five (5) Business Days after receipt, pay to the other party its prorated
share of such Minimum Rent for such month.

            (d) OTHER RENT ADJUSTMENTS. All Rent payable by each Tenant whose
Lease was terminated before the Proration Date shall belong entirely to the
Seller; and the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller, on or before the fifteenth
day of each month, all payments received by the Purchaser from the Tenant on
account of such Rent during the immediately preceding month. All Rent payable by
each Tenant whose Lease commences on or after the Proration Date shall belong
entirely to the Purchaser.

      Section 14.3 TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS.

            (a) PRORATION OF TAXES AT CLOSING. All non-delinquent Real Estate
Taxes assessed against the Real Property and all non-delinquent personal
property taxes assessed against the Personal Property ("PERSONAL PROPERTY
TAXES") shall be prorated between the Seller and the Purchaser on an accrual
basis, based upon the actual current tax bill. If the most recent tax bill
received by the Seller before the Proration Date is not the actual current tax
bill, then the Seller and the Purchaser shall initially prorate the Real Estate
Taxes at the Closing by applying 100% of the tax rate for the period covered by
the most current available tax bill to the latest assessed valuation, and shall
reprorate the Real Estate Taxes retroactively at the Final Closing


                                       49
<Page>

Adjustment so long as the actual current tax bill is then available. All Real
Estate Taxes and Personal Property Taxes accruing before the Proration Date
shall be the obligation of the Seller. Purchaser is exempt from all Real Estate
Taxes and Personal Property Taxes. In no event shall Seller have any obligation
for Real Estate Taxes and Personal Property Taxes accruing on and after the
Proration Date. Any delinquent Real Estate Taxes assessed against the Real
Property shall be paid (together with any interest and penalties) by the Seller
at the Closing from the Purchase Price.

            (b) POST-CLOSING SUPPLEMENTAL TAXES. If, after the Proration Date,
any additional or supplemental Real Estate Taxes are assessed against the Real
Property by reason of back assessments, corrections of previous tax bills or
other events occurring before the Proration Date, the Seller and the Purchaser
shall reprorate the Real Estate Taxes at the Final Closing Adjustment to provide
the appropriate credit to the Purchaser.

            (c) POST-CLOSING REFUNDS OF TAXES. Any refunds of Real Estate Taxes
made after the Closing shall be held in trust by the Purchaser (and, if received
by the Seller, shall be delivered immediately to the Purchaser to be held in
trust in accordance with this Section) and shall first be applied to the
unreimbursed costs incurred in obtaining the refund, then paid to any Tenants
who are entitled to the same and the balance, if any, shall be paid to the
Seller (for the period prior to the Closing Date) and to the Purchaser (for the
period commencing on and after the Closing Date).

            (d) PENDING TAX PROCEEDINGS. Any proceeding to determine the
assessed value of the Real Property or the Real Estate Taxes payable with
respect to the Real Property which has been commenced before the Effective Date
and shall be continuing as of the Closing Date shall be solely Seller's
responsibility.

      Section 14.4 OPERATING EXPENSES.

      All Operating Expenses shall be prorated between the Seller and the
Purchaser as of the Proration Date on an accrual basis, based on the actual
number of days in the month during which the Proration Date occurs. The Seller
shall be responsible for all Operating Expenses attributable to the period
before the Proration Date and the Purchaser shall be responsible for all
Operating Expenses attributable to the period on and after the Proration Date.
To the extent commercially reasonable and practicable, the Seller and the
Purchaser shall obtain billings and meter readings as of the Business Day
preceding the Proration Date to aid in the proration of charges for gas,
electricity and other utility services which are not the direct responsibility
of Tenants. If billings or meter readings as of the Business Day preceding the
Proration Date are obtained, adjustments of any costs, expenses, charges or fees
shown thereon shall be made in accordance with such billings or meter readings.
If billings or meter readings as of the Business Day preceding the Proration
Date are not available for any utility service, the charges therefor shall be
adjusted at the Closing on the basis of the per diem charges for the most recent
prior period for which bills were issued and shall be further adjusted at the
Final Closing Adjustment on the basis of the actual bills for the current
period. In addition to the prorations between the Seller and Purchaser for
Operating Expenses as set forth in this Section, Tenant's Expense Increase Share
(as defined in


                                       50
<Page>

Purchaser's Lease) for the Adjustment Year (as defined in Purchaser's Lease) in
which the Closing occurs shall be reconciled in accordance with the terms of the
Purchaser's Lease as if the Proration Date were the date of expiration of the
term of Purchaser's Lease. If Seller pays any amounts for the Calendar Year of
Proration for which Purchaser has paid Tenant's Expense Increase Share and any
portion of such amount is refunded to Seller then Purchaser shall be entitled to
a refund of Tenant's Expense Increase Share in an amount equal to Purchaser's
share of such refund (net of expenses incurred to obtain the refund).

      Section 14.5 SELLER'S CREDIT FOR PREPAID EXPENSES.

      At the Closing, the Seller shall receive credit from the Purchaser for all
Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes, Personal Property Taxes and other items
of cost or expense being prorated under this Article which, as of the Closing
Date, have been prepaid by the Seller for a period on and after the Proration
Date.

      Section 14.6 PURCHASER'S CREDIT FOR UNPAID EXPENSES.

      At the Closing, the Purchaser shall receive credit from the Seller for all
Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes, Personal Property Taxes and other items
of cost or expense being prorated under this Article which are accrued, but
unpaid, as of the Closing Date, but only to the extent such accrued, unpaid
items relate to a period before the Closing Date. On and after the Closing Date,
the Purchaser shall pay all amounts for which the Purchaser receives credit
under this Section.

      Section 14.7 SECURITY DEPOSITS, OTHER TENANT CREDITS AND PURCHASER'S
CREDIT FOR LATE FEE.

      The Purchaser shall be credited with and the Seller shall be charged with
an amount equal to the sum of (i) all Security Deposits (other than Security

Seller's managing agent or any other Person under the Leases, and (ii) the
amount of any other credits due to Tenants as of the Closing Date in accordance
with the terms of the Leases. The Seller shall be entitled to retain all

14.6. The Purchaser shall be credited with and the Seller shall be charged with
an amount equal to Twenty Thousand Two Hundred Twenty-Five and 67/100 Dollars
($20,225.67) to reimburse Purchaser for a late fee assessed against and paid by

      Section 14.8 UTILITY DEPOSITS.

      The Seller shall be entitled to retain all Utility Deposits. If any of the

good and sufficient transfer by the Seller to the Purchaser of all interest of
the Seller in the Utility Deposit.

Expenses incurred by the Seller during the period beginning on the first day of
the calendar year in which the Proration Date occurs (the "CALENDAR YEAR OF
PRORATION") and ending on the day before the Proration Date and all
reimbursements (if any) received by the Seller, as landlord, under the Leases
for each Tenant's share of Reimbursable Expenses for the Calendar Year of
Proration.

      Section 14.11 FINAL CLOSING ADJUSTMENT.

      No later than one (1) year after the Closing, the Seller and the Purchaser
shall make a final adjustment to the prorations made pursuant to this Article
(the "FINAL CLOSING ADJUSTMENT"). The Final Closing Adjustment shall be made in
the following manner:

            (a) GENERAL. All adjustments or prorations which could not be
determined at the Closing because of the lack of actual statements, bills or
invoice for the current period, the year-end adjustment of Additional Rent or
any other reason shall be made as a part of the Final Closing Adjustment. Any
net adjustment in favor of the Purchaser shall be paid in cash or cash
equivalent by the Seller to the Purchaser no later than twenty (20) days after
the Final Closing Adjustment. Any net adjustment in favor of the Seller shall be
paid in cash or cash equivalent by the Purchaser to the Seller no later than
twenty (20) days after the Final Closing Adjustment.

            (b) NO FURTHER ADJUSTMENTS. Except for: (i) additional or
supplemental Real Estate Taxes, real estate tax credits or rebates, or other
adjustments to Real Estate Taxes due to back assessments, corrections to
previous tax bills or real estate tax appeals or contests, and (ii) any item of
Additional Rent which may be contested by a Tenant, the Final Closing Adjustment
shall be conclusive and binding upon the Seller and the Purchaser and the Seller
and the Purchaser hereby waive any right to contest after the Final Closing
Adjustment any prorations, apportionments or adjustments to be made pursuant to
this Section.

      Section 14.12 CLOSING COSTS AND TRANSFER TAXES.

      At the Closing, Seller shall pay all of the transfer taxes (the "TRANSFER
TAXES") imposed pursuant to the Laws of the District of Columbia in respect of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall cause to be prepared
any return (the "TRANSFER TAX RETURN") required thereby, which shall be duly
executed by Seller and Purchaser. Seller shall also pay the fees of Seller's
attorneys. Purchaser is exempt from the recordation tax imposed pursuant to the
Laws of the District of Columbia pursuant to D.C. Code Ann. ss.45-922(2) (1981 &
Supp. 2000). Purchaser shall pay the fees of Purchaser's attorneys and the costs
of Purchaser's physical inspections, due diligence, survey costs and title
insurance premiums, if any. Purchaser and Seller shall each pay one-half of all
other fees, escrow costs and costs of closing.

      Section 14.13 INCOME TAXES.

      Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all
federal, state or local income or gross receipts taxes payable with respect to
the Seller or the Property, if any, accruing before the Proration Date, or any
such income or gross receipts tax assessed with respect to the transaction
described in this Agreement, if any, shall be the obligation of and for the
account of the Seller, and the Purchaser shall have no obligation or liability
whatsoever with respect thereto.

      Section 14.14 LEASING COMMISSIONS.

      If any brokerage or leasing commission, fee or other compensation is due
and payable (or will, with the passage of time or occurrence of any event or
both, be due and payable), with respect to any Lease properly entered into by
Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement following the Effective Date,
then such brokerage or leasing commission, fee or other compensation shall be
prorated between the Seller and the Purchaser as of the Proration Date on an
accrual basis, based on the actual number of days in the month during which the
Proration Date occurs. The Seller shall be responsible for all brokerage or
leasing commission, fee or other compensation attributable to the period before
the Proration Date and the Purchaser shall be responsible for all brokerage or
leasing commission, fee or other compensation attributable to the period on and
after the Proration Date.

                                   ARTICLE XV

                                   TERMINATION

      Section 15.1 REASONS FOR TERMINATION.

      This Agreement may be terminated upon written notice given to the Escrow
Agent and the other party by:

            (a) the Purchaser at the Closing, if any one of the conditions set
forth in ARTICLE XI or ARTICLE XII is not satisfied in all material respects on
the Closing Date, PROVIDED HOWEVER, that Purchaser shall not terminate this
Agreement unless Seller fails to satisfy the condition in accordance with the
provisions of SECTIONS 6.6 THROUGH 6.11, as applicable; or

            (b) the Seller at the Closing, if any one of the conditions set
forth in ARTICLE X is not satisfied in all material respects on the Closing
Date; PROVIDED HOWEVER, that Seller shall not terminate this Agreement unless
Purchaser fails to satisfy any one of the conditions in accordance with the cure
rights set forth in the next two sentences. In the case of any condition which
can be satisfied solely by the payment of a sum of money, Purchaser shall
satisfy such condition within ten (10) days after written notice from Seller to
Purchaser. In the case of any condition which cannot be satisfied solely by the
payment of a sum of money, Purchaser shall satisfy such condition within thirty
(30) days after written notice from Seller to Purchaser; provided, however, if
such condition is reasonably susceptible of satisfaction, but not within such
thirty (30) day period, then Purchaser may be permitted up to an additional
thirty (30) days to satisfy such condition provided that Purchaser diligently
and continuously pursues such


                                       53
<Page>

satisfaction. The Closing shall be automatically adjourned during the time
periods set forth in this Section; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the reduction in the
Purchase Price set forth in SECTION 3.1 shall be delayed one day for each day of
adjournment pursuant to this Section.

      Section 15.2 TERMINATION BY PURCHASER.

      If the Purchaser terminates this Agreement pursuant to SECTION 15.1(A),
this Agreement shall become null and void, the Escrow Agent shall return the
Fund to the Purchaser and no party shall have any further liability or
obligation to any other party under this Agreement, except as otherwise provided
in any of ARTICLE V, SECTION 18.7 or the next sentence. If the Purchaser
terminates this Agreement pursuant to SECTION 15.1(A) because of a breach by the
Seller of any of the representations or warranties made by it in this Agreement
or the failure of the Seller to perform any of the covenants or agreements to be
performed by it under this Agreement, the Purchaser may sue to recover its
damages arising out of such breach or nonperformance, subject to the limitations
set forth in ARTICLE VI. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement to the
contrary, in no event and under no circumstances shall Seller have any liability
to Purchaser for the Seller's misrepresentation, breach of warranty or default
or for the failure of a condition.

      Section 15.3 TERMINATION BY SELLER.

            If the Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to SECTION 15.1(B),
this Agreement shall become null and void, the Escrow Agent shall return the
Fund to the Purchaser and no party shall have any further liability or
obligation to any other party under this Agreement, except as otherwise provided
in any of ARTICLE V, SECTION 18.7 or the next sentence. If the Seller terminates
this Agreement pursuant to SECTION 15.1(b) because of a breach by the Purchaser
of any of the representations or warranties made by it in this Agreement or the
failure of the Purchaser to perform any of the covenants or agreements to be
performed by it under this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall pay the Fund to the
Seller. The Seller's sole and exclusive remedy for the Purchaser's
misrepresentation, breach of warranty or default shall be to receive the Fund as
liquidated damages. In no event and under no circumstances shall the Seller be
entitled to receive more than the Fund as damages for the Purchaser's
misrepresentation, breach of warranty or default. THE SELLER AND THE PURCHASER
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE DAMAGES TO THE SELLER IN THE EVENT OF A BREACH OF THIS
AGREEMENT BY THE PURCHASER WOULD BE DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE, THAT
THE AMOUNT OF THE FUND REPRESENTS THE PARTIES' BEST AND MOST ACCURATE ESTIMATE
OF THE DAMAGES THAT WOULD BE SUFFERED BY THE SELLER IF THE TRANSACTION FAILS TO
CLOSE AND THAT SUCH ESTIMATE IS REASONABLE UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING ON
THE EFFECTIVE DATE AND UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT THE SELLER AND THE PURCHASER
REASONABLY ANTICIPATE WOULD EXIST AT THE TIME OF SUCH BREACH. THE PURCHASER AND
THE SELLER AGREE THAT THE SELLER'S RIGHT TO RETAIN THE FUND SHALL BE THE
SELLER'S SOLE REMEDY, AT LAW AND IN EQUITY, FOR THE PURCHASER'S FAILURE TO
PURCHASE THE PROPERTY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

      Section 15.4 PURCHASER'S RIGHT TO SEEK SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.

      If the Seller defaults in performing any of the covenants or agreements to
be performed by it under this Agreement, the Purchaser shall have the right,
instead of terminating this Agreement pursuant to SECTION 15.1, to elect to
permit this Agreement to remain in effect and to sue for specific performance
and for any damages caused by the Seller's default, subject to the limitations
set forth in ARTICLE VI.

                                   ARTICLE XVI

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

done, transactions entered into or other events occurring before the Closing
Date with respect to the Leases and/or the Contracts, other than the debts,
liabilities and obligations which are being adjusted between the Seller and the
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement;

            (b) any loss, liability or damage suffered or incurred by the
Purchaser arising out of or resulting from injury or death to individuals or
damage to property of third parties sustained on the Real Property before the
Closing and caused by the willful or negligent act or omission (where applicable
law imposes a duty to act) of the Seller; and

            (c) all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees) incurred by the Purchaser in connection with any action, suit,
proceeding, demand, assessment or judgment incident to any of the matters
indemnified against in this Section.

      Section 16.2 BY PURCHASER.

      Subject to the provisions of SECTION 16.3, the Purchaser agrees to
indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Seller from and against:

            (a) all debts, liabilities and obligations arising from business
done, transactions entered into or other events occurring on and after the
Closing with respect to the Leases and/or the Contracts, other than the debts,
liabilities and obligations which are being adjusted between the Seller and the
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement;

            (b) any loss, liability or damage suffered or incurred by the Seller
arising out of or resulting from injury or death to individuals or damage to
property of third parties sustained on the Real Property before the Closing and
caused by the willful or negligent act or omission (where applicable law imposes
a duty to act) of the Purchaser; and


                                       55
<Page>

            (c) all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees) incurred by the Seller in connection with any action, suit,
proceeding, demand, assessment or judgment incident to any of the matters
indemnified against in this subsection.

      Section 16.3 LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS.

      The obligations of the Seller to indemnify the Purchaser pursuant to
SECTION 16.1 and the obligations of the Purchaser to indemnify the Seller
pursuant to SECTION 16.2 are limited as follows:

            (a) LIMIT ON THE SELLER'S OBLIGATION WITH CLOSING. If the Closing is
consummated, the Seller shall not have any liability or obligation to the
Purchaser pursuant to SECTION 16.1 unless the Seller receives written notice of
Purchaser's claim for indemnity within one (1) year after the Closing Date.

            (b) LIMIT ON THE PURCHASER'S OBLIGATION WITH CLOSING. If the Closing
is consummated, the Purchaser shall not have any liability or obligation to the
Seller pursuant to SECTION 16.2 unless the Purchaser receives written notice of
Seller's claim for indemnity within one (1) year after the Closing Date.

      Section 16.4 PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING INDEMNIFICATION.

            (a) DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Section, (i) the term "CLAIM"
shall mean any claim, litigation, setoff, defense, counterclaim or other legal
action taken or asserted by any Person against the Asserting Party, (ii) the
term "ASSERTING PARTY" shall mean the party, I.E., the Seller or the Purchaser,
as the case may be, against whom a Claim is asserted and who seeks
indemnification under SECTION 16.1 or SECTION 16.2, and (iii) the term
"DEFENDING PARTY" shall mean the party, I.E., the Seller or the Purchaser, from
whom indemnification is sought under SECTION 16.1 or SECTION 16.2.

            (b) NOTICE OF CLAIM; ASSUMPTION OF DEFENSE. If a Claim is made
against the Asserting Party which the Asserting Party believes to be covered by
the Defending Party's indemnification obligation under SECTION 16.1 or SECTION
16.2, the Asserting Party shall promptly notify the Defending Party of the Claim
and, in such notice, shall offer to the Defending Party the opportunity to
assume the defense of the Claim within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of
the notice (with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Asserting Party). If the
Defending Party timely elects to assume the defense of the Claim, the Defending
Party shall do so on behalf of both the Asserting Party and the Defending Party,
unless both the Asserting Party and the Defending Party are named in the same
litigation and representation of both of them by the same counsel would be
inappropriate.

            (c) RIGHT TO SETTLE. If the Defending Party timely elects to assume
the defense of the Claim, the Defending Party shall have the right to settle the
Claim on any terms it considers reasonable as long as the settlement shall not
require the Asserting Party to render any performance or pay any consideration
without its consent.


                                       56
<Page>

            (d) RIGHT TO ASSUME DEFENSE. If the Defending Party fails timely to
elect to assume the defense of the Claim, or if the Defending Party timely
elects to assume the defense of the Claim but thereafter fails to defend the
Claim with diligence and continuity, the Asserting Party shall have the right to
take over the defense of the Claim and to settle the Claim on any terms it
considers reasonable. Any such settlement shall be valid as against the
Defending Party.

            (e) SELECTION OF COUNSEL. If the Defending Party assumes the defense
of a Claim, the Asserting Party may employ its own counsel but such employment
shall be at the sole expense of the Asserting Party. If the Defending Party
assumes the defense of a Claim but the same counsel may not represent both the
Asserting Party and the Defending Party, or if the Defending Party fails timely
to assume the defense of the Claim or, after having elected to assume the
defense fails to defend the Claim with diligence and continuity, the Asserting
Party may employ its own counsel and such employment shall be at the sole
expense of the Defending Party.

            (f) COOPERATION. Whether or not the Defending Party elects to assume
the defense of a Claim, the Defending Party shall cooperate with the Asserting
Party in the defense of the Claim.

            (g) EXTENSION TO OTHER PERSONS. The indemnification obligations
under this Agreement shall also extend to any present or future advisor,
trustee, director, officer, partner, member, employee, beneficiary, shareholder,
participant or agent of or in the Asserting Party or any Person now or hereafter
having a direct or indirect ownership interest in Indemnitee.

relocate the Building Manager. Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to

reasonable best efforts) prior to Closing, Purchaser shall permit the Building
Manager to have a license for the space shown on EXHIBIT L for up to three (3)
months after the Closing Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) the Building Manager
shall not be engaged in the management, operation, maintenance and repair of the
Real Property, (ii) the Building Manager shall continue to be the employee of
the Seller and shall not be an employee, agent or representative of Purchaser
and Purchaser shall have no liabilities or obligations whatsoever with respect
to the Building Manager, (iii) the Building Manager shall comply with the rules
and regulations applicable to the Building, and (iv) the Seller shall indemnify,
hold harmless and defend the Purchaser from and against all costs, claims, and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting from the Building
Manager's presence on the Property after the Closing in accordance with ARTICLE
XVI. The


                                       57
<Page>

Building Manager shall be available to Purchaser, and will cooperate and consult
with Purchaser, at no cost to Purchaser, on all transition issues for three (3)
months after the Closing Date, regardless of whether or not the Building Manager
has been relocated prior to or during such three (3) month period.

Seller. If this Agreement is terminated before the Closing, the Purchaser
promptly shall return the Information to the Seller and shall not retain copies
thereof. Prior to Closing, unless disclosure is required by law, or on the
advice of securities counsel, the Seller shall not make any public announcements
concerning the sale of the Property pursuant to this Agreement without first
obtaining the prior written consent of the Purchaser. If, prior to Closing,
disclosure is required by law or on the advice of securities counsel, the public
announcement shall contain all information that Seller's securities counsel
determines is required by law to be disclosed. On the Effective Date, Seller and
Purchaser agree that the press releases in the forms attached hereto and made a
part hereof as EXHIBIT M may be issued by Seller and/or Purchaser. In addition,
on or after the Closing Date, Purchaser agrees that Seller may disclose any
information which does not contradict and is otherwise consistent with that
contained in the press releases attached hereto


                                       61

provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing or termination of this
Agreement.

      Section 18.8 BROKERS.

      Purchaser and Seller represent and warrant to each other that the Sales
Agent is the sole broker with whom it has dealt in connection with the Property
and the transactions described herein. Seller shall be liable for, and shall
indemnify Purchaser against, the One Percent (1%) brokerage commission due to
the Sales Agent arising out of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.
Each party hereto agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless from
and against any and all claims, causes of action, losses, costs, expenses,
damages or liabilities, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements,
which the other may sustain, incur or be exposed to, by reason of any claim or
claims by any broker, finder or other person, except the Sales Agent, for fees,
commissions or other compensation arising out of the transactions contemplated
in this Agreement if such claim or claims are based in whole or in part on
dealings or agreements with the indemnifying party. The obligations and
representations and warranties contained in this SECTION 18.8 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the Closing.

      Section 18.9 FURTHER ASSURANCES.

      Each party to this Agreement shall execute and deliver any additional

or file this Agreement or any notice or memorandum hereof in any public records,
except in connection with a suit by the Purchaser for specific performance
following the Seller's default.

      Section 18.11 PARTIAL INVALIDITY.

      If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to
any persons or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable,
the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such term or provision to
persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or
unenforceable shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this
Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

      Section 18.12 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

            (a) No present or future member, officer, employee, advisor or agent
of or in Purchaser shall have any personal liability, directly or indirectly,
under or in connection with this Agreement or any agreement made or entered into

In addition, neither the Purchaser nor any successor or assign of the Purchaser
intends to assume any personal liability, directly or indirectly, under or in
connection with any agreement to which the Property is now or hereafter subject,
and no such assumption shall be implied except to the extent expressly provided
for herein. The limitations of liability contained in this Section are in
addition to, and not in limitation of, any limitation on liability applicable to

contract, agreement or instrument.

provisions of this Agreement, or any amendment or amendments to any of the
foregoing made at any time or times, heretofore or hereafter, and the Purchaser
and its successors and assigns and, without limitation, all other Persons, shall
look solely to the assets and property of the Seller, for the payment of any
claim arising out of this Agreement or for any performance, and the Purchaser
hereby waives any and all such personal liability. In addition, neither the
Seller nor any successor or assign of the Seller intends to assume any personal
liability, directly or indirectly, under or in connection with any agreement to
which the Property is now or hereafter subject, and no such assumption shall be
implied except to the extent expressly provided for herein. The limitations of
liability contained in this Section are in addition to, and not in limitation
of, any limitation on liability applicable to the Seller provided elsewhere in
this Agreement or by law or by any other contract, agreement or instrument.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the Closing Date until the Final
Date (as hereinafter defined), Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. (the "PARENT"), by
executing this Agreement, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees the full and prompt payment and performance of all duties, covenants,
agreements, commitments and obligations of Seller pursuant to this Agreement
(including without limitation, any amounts that, but for the initiation of any
proceeding under any insolvency or bankruptcy law would be or become due
thereunder) (the "PARENT GUARANTY"). As used herein, "FINAL DATE" shall mean the
date which is one (1) year after the Closing Date, provided that if on such date
Purchaser has commenced a claim against Seller under this Agreement, the Final
Date shall be extended until such claim is resolved by final non-appealable
court order or by settlement.

      Section 18.13 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

      The Seller and the Purchaser waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding
or counterclaim brought by either of them against the other on any matter
arising out of or in any way connected with this Agreement.

      Purchaser and Seller agree that, wherever this Agreement provides that a
party must send or give any notice, make an election or take some other action
within a specific time period in order to exercise a right or remedy it may have
hereunder, time shall be of the essence with respect to the taking of such
action, and such party's failure to take such action within the applicable time
period shall be deemed to be an irrevocable waiver by such party of such right
or remedy.
