     It is a contingency upon Seller's obligations hereunder that
two  (2)  copies  of  Co-Tenancy Agreement in the  form  attached
hereto  duly  executed by Buyer and Seller and  dated  on  escrow
closing date be delivered to the Seller on the Closing date.

      Buyer may cancel this agreement for ANY REASON in its  sole
discretion  by  delivering a cancellation notice, return  receipt
requested,  to Seller and escrow holder before the expiration  of
any  review  period or inspection period. Such  notice  shall  be
deemed effective only upon receipt by Seller.

      If  Buyer  cancels this Agreement as permitted  under  this
Section,  except  for  any  escrow  cancellation  fees  and   any
liabilities  under sections 15(a) of this agreement  (which  will
survive),  Buyer  (after execution of such  documents  reasonably
requested by Seller to evidence the termination hereof) shall  be
returned  its  First Payment, and Buyer will have  absolutely  no
rights,  claims  or interest of any type in connection  with  the
Property  or this transaction, regardless of any alleged  conduct
by Seller or anyone else.

      Buyer  irrevocably  will be deemed to  have  canceled  this
Agreement and relinquish all rights in and to the Property unless
Buyer  makes the Second Payment when required. If this  Agreement
is not canceled and the Second Payment is made when required, all
of Buyer's conditions and contingencies will be deemed satisfied.

7.  Escrow. Escrow shall be opened by Seller and funds  deposited
in escrow upon acceptance of this agreement by both parties.. The
escrow  holder  will  be a nationally-recognized  escrow  company
selected by Seller. A copy of this Agreement will be delivered to
the  escrow holder and will serve as escrow instructions together
with the escrow holder's standard instructions and any additional
instructions required by the escrow holder to clarify its  rights
and  duties  (and  the  parties agree to  sign  these  additional
instructions).  If  there  is any conflict  between  these  other
instructions and this Agreement, this Agreement will control.

8.   Title.  Closing will be conditioned on the  agreement  of  a
title  company selected by Seller to issue an Owner's  policy  of
title  insurance, dated as of the close of escrow, in  an  amount
equal  to  the  purchase  price, insuring  that  Buyer  will  own
insurable  title  to  the Property subject  only  to:  the  title
company's  standard exceptions;  current real property taxes  and
assessments;  survey  exceptions;  and  other  items  of   record
disclosed to Buyer during the contingency period.

      Buyer shall be allowed five (5) days after receipt of  said
commitment  for examination and the making of any  objections  to
marketability thereto, said objections to be made in  writing  or
deemed  waived.  If any objections are so made, the Seller  shall
be  allowed eighty (80) days to make such title marketable or  in
the  alternative  to  obtain  a commitment  for  insurable  title
insuring over Buyer's objections.  If Seller shall decide to make
no  efforts to make title marketable, or is unable to make  title
marketable or obtain insurable title, (after execution  by  Buyer
of  such documents reasonably requested by Seller to evidence the
termination  hereof) Buyer's First Payment shall be returned  and
this Agreement shall be null and void and of no further force and
effect.

     Pending correction of title, the payments hereunder required

(10)  days  after written notice of correction to the Buyer,  the
parties shall perform this Agreement according to its terms.

     9.  Closing Costs.  Seller will pay one-half of escrow fees,

Owners  Title  Insurance  Policy  in  the  full  amount  of   the
purchase  price.  Buyer will pay all recording fees, one-half  of
the  escrow fees, and     the cost of an update to the Survey  in

and  close this transaction.

10.  Real Estate Taxes, Special Assessments and Prorations.

     (a)  Because the Entire Property (of which the Property is a
     part) is subject to a triple net lease (as further set forth
     in  paragraph 11(a)(i), the parties acknowledge  that  there
     shall  be no need for a real estate tax proration.  However,
     Seller  represents  that to the best of its  knowledge,  all
     real  estate  taxes and installments of special  assessments
     due  and  payable in all years prior to the year of  Closing
     have  been paid in full.  Unpaid levied and pending  special
     assessments  existing on the date of Closing  shall  be  the
     responsibility  of Buyer and Seller in proportion  to  their
     respective  Tenant in Common interests.   Seller  and  Buyer
     shall  likewise pay all taxes due and payable  in  the  year
     after   Closing  and  any  unpaid  installments  of  special
     assessments payable therewith and therafter, if such  unpaid
     levied and pending special assessments and real estate taxes
     are not paid by any tenant of the Entire Property.
     
     (b)   All income and all operating expenses from the  Entire
     Property  shall be prorated between the parties and adjusted
     by them as of the date of Closing.  Seller shall be entitled
     to  all  income  earned  and shall be  responsible  for  all
     expenses  incurred prior to the date of Closing,  and  Buyer
     shall  be entitled to its proportionate share of all  income
     earned and shall be responsible for its proportionate  shall
     of  all  operating expenses of the Property incurred on  and
     after the date of closing.
     
11.  Seller's Representation and Agreements.

     (a)  Seller represents and warrants as of this date that:

     (i)   Except  for  the lease in existence between  Rober  P.

     or regulation.

     be  destroyed  or further damaged by fire, the elements,  or
     any cause, due to events occurring subsequent to the date of
     this Agreement to the extent that the cost of repair exceeds
     $10,000.00,  this Agreement shall become null and  void,  at
     Buyer's  option exercised, if at all, by written  notice  to
     Seller within ten (10) days after Buyer has received written
     notice  from Seller of said destruction or damage.   Seller,
     however,  shall  have  the right to  adjust  or  settle  any
     insured  loss  until  (i)  all contingencies  set  forth  in
     Paragraph 6 hereof have been satisfied, or waived; and  (ii)
     any  five-day period provided for above in this Subparagraph
     16a  for  Buyer  to  elect to terminate this  Agreement  has
     expired  or  Buyer has, by written notice to Seller,  waived
     Buyer's right to terminate this Agreement.  If Buyer  elects
     to  proceed  and  to  consummate the purchase  despite  said
     damage  or  destruction, there shall be no reduction  in  or
     abatement of the purchase price, and Seller shall assign  to
     Buyer the Seller's right, title, and interest in and to  all
     insurance  proceeds  (pro-rata in  relation  to  the  Entire
     Property) resulting from said damage or destruction  to  the
     extent  that the same are payable with respect to damage  to
     the  Property, subject to rights of any Tenant of the Entire
     Property.
     
     If  the cost of repair is less than $10,000.00, Buyer  shall
     be  obligated  to  otherwise  perform  hereinunder  with  no
     adjustment to the Purchase
     
     
     
     
     Buyer Initial: /s/ JS

     Price,  reduction  or  abatement, and  Seller  shall  assign
     Seller's  right, title and interest in and to all  insurance
     proceeds  pro-rata  in  relation  to  the  Entire  Property,
     subject to rights of any Tenant of the Entire Property.
     
     (b)   If,  prior  to  closing, the  Property,  or  any  part
     thereof,  is  taken by eminent domain, this Agreement  shall

     there  shall  be  no  reduction in,  or  abatement  of,  the
     purchase  price,  and  Seller  shall  assign  to  Buyer  the
     Seller's  right,  title, and interest in and  to  any  award
     made, or to be made, in the condemnation proceeding pro-rata
     in relation to the Entire Property, subject to rights of any
     Tenant of the Entire Property.
     
      In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Buyer  as
provided  above  in  Subparagraph 16a or 16b, the  First  Payment
shall  be immediately returned to Buyer (after execution by Buyer
of  such documents reasonably requested by Seller to evidence the
termination hereof).

17.  Buyer's 1031 Tax Free Exchange.

      While  Seller  acknowledges that Buyer  is  purchasing  the
Property  as  "replacement property" to  accomplish  a  tax  free
exchange,   Buyer   acknowledges  that   Seller   has   made   no
representations,  warranties, or agreements to Buyer  or  Buyer's
agents  that  the transaction contemplated by the Agreement  will
qualify  for such tax treatment, nor has there been any  reliance
thereon by Buyer respecting the legal or tax implications of  the
transactions contemplated hereby.  Buyer further represents  that
it has sought and obtained such third party advice and counsel as
it  deems  necessary in regards to the tax implications  of  this
transaction.

      Buyer  wishes  to  novate/assign the ownership  rights  and
interest of this Purchase Agreement to Starker Services, Inc. who
will act as Facilitator to perfect the 1031 exchange by preparing
an  agreement  of  exchange  of  Real  Property  whereby  Starker
Services, Inc. will be an independent third party purchasing  the
ownership  interest in subject property from Seller  and  selling
the  ownership  interest in subject property to Buyer  under  the
same   terms  and  conditions  as  documented  in  this  Purchase
Agreement.   Buyer asks the Seller to cooperate in the perfection
of  such an exchange at no additional cost or expense or delay in
time.   Buyer  hereby indemnifies and holds Seller harmless  from
any claims and/or actions resulting from said exchange.  Pursuant
to the direction of Starker Services, Inc.,  Seller will deed the
property to Buyer.

18.  Cancellation

     If  any party elects to cancel this Contract because of  any
     breach by another party or because escrow fails to close  by
     the  agreed date, the party electing to cancel shall deliver
     to escrow agent a notice containing the address of the party
     in  breach and stating that this Contract shall be cancelled
     unless  the  breach  is cured within 13 days  following  the
     delivery  of  the notice to the escrow agent.  Within  three
     days  after  receipt of such notice, the escrow agent  shall
     send it by United States Mail to the party in breach at  the
     address contained in the Notice and no further notice  shall
     be required. If the breach is not
