Seller shall deliver the original certificates of taxes due to the Buyer not
less than 10 days prior to the Closing Date, as defined hereafter.  On or
prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause all taxes which are due, as
evidenced by such certificates, to be paid in full and provide proof of
payment to Buyer; and

     4.   Survey.  On or before twenty (20) days after the Effective Date

current ALTA/ASCM Land Title Survey of the Property prepared and certified
(i) in accordance with the "Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for
ALTA/ASCM Land Title Surveys" jointly established and adopted ALTA and ASCM
in 1992, and including Items 1 through 4, 6 through 11, and 13 of Table A
thereof, and (ii) pursuant to the Accuracy Standards (as adopted by the ALTA
and ACSM and in effect on the date of the certification of such survey) of an
Urban Survey.  The survey shall contain a certificate from the surveyor to
Buyer, the Title Company and any lender(s) designated by Buyer from time to
time in form acceptable to the Buyer.  The survey shall be in a form
acceptable to the Title Company for the deletion of the standard survey
exception relating to boundaries, without the addition of further exceptions
unless same are acceptable to Buyer, in its sole and absolute discretion. 
Buyer shall have until the end of the Inspection Period, as hereinafter
defined, to examine the survey delivered to it as provided herein.  If Buyer
does not approve of the survey provided hereunder, Buyer, at its sole option,
may elect either (i) to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Earnest
Money Deposit shall be returned to Buyer upon written notice by the Buyer to
the Title Company, and this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect,
or (ii) to waive the objections and to proceed to close this purchase and
sale transaction in accordance with the terms of the remainder of this
Agreement.  Buyer's election shall be made within five (5) days after Buyer's
receipt of written notice from Seller that any specified objectionable matter
will not be corrected, and Buyer's failure to deliver notice of its election
shall be deemed a waiver of such objectionable matters.

     5.   Title Insurance and Lien Search.

          A.   A current title insurance commitment covering the Property
issued by the Title Company, together with clear and legible copies of all
documents referred to therein, shall be delivered to Buyer, at Seller's sole
cost and expense, within twenty (20) days after the Effective Date of this
Agreement.  The title insurance commitment shall be in the amount of the
Purchase Price, and shall commit the Title Company to issue its 1992 ALTA
Owner's Policy, with standard preprinted exceptions deleted, insuring good
and marketable title in fee simple to the Property in Buyer subject only to
(i) current non-delinquent general real property taxes, and (ii) such other
easements, restrictions and rights-of-way as Buyer shall deem, in its sole
discretion, not to adversely affect the value of or Buyer's intended use of
the Property.  If the title insurance commitment shall contain any exception
for mineral rights, Seller shall pay for an endorsement to the title
insurance coverage insuring against any loss to improvements.  Such title
insurance commitment shall include a gap endorsement pursuant to which Title
Company shall agree to insure against loss or damage by reason of there being
recorded any instrument first appearing in the public records subsequent to
the effective date of such commitment but prior to the effective date of the
title insurance policy and a Colorado Endorsement Form 100.  If the title
insurance commitment delivered to Buyer shall contain any exceptions from
coverage which Buyer deems to be unacceptable, Buyer, at its option, may
elect either (i) to permit the Seller to secure, at its expense, affirmative
title insurance coverage with respect to the matters objected to, or (ii) to
terminate this Agreement, in which event the Earnest Money Deposit shall be
returned to Buyer upon written notice to the Title Company and this Agreement
shall be of no further force or effect, or (iii) to waive such objections and
proceed to close this purchase and sale transaction in accordance with this
Agreement.  If Buyer does not deliver written notice of objection to title to
Seller as provided herein before the end of the Inspection Period, Buyer
shall be deemed to have waived this condition precedent.  Any exceptions on
the title insurance commitment to which Buyer does not object or to which
Buyer objects but waives such objection pursuant to this Section shall be
deemed to be "Permitted Exceptions."  Seller shall deliver at the Closing an
updated title insurance commitment, effective as of the date and hour of the
Closing, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

          B.   Seller shall cause the Title Company to deliver to Buyer
within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, at Seller's sole cost and
expense, a 1992 ALTA Owner's Policy, covering the Property in the amount of
the Purchase Price of the Property, effective as of the date and time of the
Closing, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, and including such other
endorsements as Seller may have agreed to provide pursuant to Section 5A
above. The standard preprinted exceptions regarding parties in possession,
surveys, and mechanic's liens shall be deleted, at Seller's sole cost and
expense.  Seller shall deliver to the Title Company any instruments,
documents, payments, indemnities, releases and agreements as the Title
Company shall require in order to issue, amend or update the title insurance
commitment as herein provided.  At Closing, Seller shall obtain and deliver
to Buyer such assurances as Buyer may reasonably request that the Title
Company is irrevocably committed and prepared to issue its ALTA owner's
policy to Seller in accordance with the foregoing requirements.

          C.   If Title Company uses the escrow and closing services of an
agent in connection with this transaction, Seller shall cause Title Company
to issue to Buyer an insured closing letter, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Buyer, which insured closing letter shall protect Buyer from
fraud or dishonesty of Title Company's agent in handling Buyer's funds or
documents in connection with the Closing and against the failure of the Title
Company's agent to comply with written closing instructions of Buyer or its
counsel.

          D.   During the Inspection Period, Buyer, at Seller's sole expense,
shall obtain from Title Company or from a Uniform Commercial Code lien search
service reasonably acceptable to Buyer, a current certificate reporting the
results of a Uniform Commercial Code lien search of all appropriate records
for security interests, financing statements, judgment liens, tax liens and
all other liens against any personal property associated with or constituting
a part of the Property.  Buyer may cause such report to be updated and
recertified to Buyer within five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, at
Seller's sole expense.  Buyer shall promptly deliver a copy of any such
certificate and update to Seller, and Seller shall make arrangements on or
before the Closing Date to have all liens against any personal property
associated with or constituting a part of the Property shown thereon fully
discharged.

     6.   Inspection by Buyer; Termination Rights; Bond Objectives.

          A.   Inspection by Buyer.  Subject to the rights of the tenants
under the Tenant Leases, Buyer and Buyer's authorized agents and
representatives may, from time to time, during regular business hours and on
reasonable prior notice to Buyer and the managing agent of the Property,
inspect all areas of the Premises for the purpose of making inspections
thereof and conducting such tests and observations and compiling such
information as Buyer may deem appropriate.  No such inspection, however,
shall constitute a waiver or relinquishment on the part of Buyer of its right
to rely upon the covenants, representations, warranties or agreements made by
Seller under this Agreement.  Buyer shall pay when due all fees and expenses
incurred in the performance of any such inspections, tests or observations
and shall indemnify, defend, and save Seller harmless from any loss from
mechanic's liens, claims for nonpayment of such charges or for damages
arising out of the acts or omissions of the parties performing such
inspections, tests, or observations.

          B.   Examination of Records.  Seller shall permit Buyer's
accountants and authorized representatives to examine Seller's books,
financial records and tenant files pertaining to the operation of the
Premises prior to the Closing.  Buyer's accountants and representatives shall
be permitted access to such records during regular business hours.  Seller
acknowledges that Buyer intends to include the Property as a part of a public
offering, and Seller consents to the disclosure of information regarding the
Property, including financial information, in any such public offering. 
Seller further agrees to allow Buyer or its agents to audit Seller's
statements of operations or perform procedures as considered necessary to
comply with Securities and Exchange Commission regulations.  Additionally, to
the extent that a subsequent interim period(s) statement of operations is
required to be included by Buyer in a public offering document, Seller agrees
to allow Buyer's auditors access to the books and records of the Property
necessary to complete procedures as required by securities laws or
regulations.  Seller shall provide Buyer with such information as Seller may
have with respect to actual expenditures made on all repairs, maintenance,
operation and upkeep of the Premises, including, without limitation, all
taxes and utility payments within three years prior to the Closing, and dates
of construction, installation and major repairs to the Premises.  

          C.   Inspection Period; Notice of Termination.  Buyer's obligation
to purchase the Property pursuant to the terms of this Agreement is
specifically conditioned upon Buyer's approval of the Property, in Buyer's
sole discretion.  At any time on or prior to 11:59 pm on January 15, 1996
(the "Inspection Period"), Buyer may, for any reason in Buyer's sole
discretion, terminate this Agreement by giving notice to Seller of Buyer's
election to terminate this Agreement, and in such event, this Agreement shall
terminate, and the Earnest Money Deposit, and all interest accrued thereon,
shall be delivered by the Title Company to Buyer upon notice to the Title
Company.  If Buyer does not give such notice within the Inspection Period,
Buyer's right to terminate under this Section 6C shall expire and this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Inspection Period shall be extended one day for each day of
delay in providing all of the documents referred to in Section 3, the survey
referenced in Section 4, and the title insurance commitment and copies of all
documents or items referred to therein as provided in Section 5.  Upon
expiration of the Inspection Period (and any additional period provided in
either Section 4 or Section 5 to correct any deficiencies in either the
survey or the title insurance commitment delivered pursuant to such
Sections), if this Agreement has not been terminated by Buyer as provided in
this Section 6C or in Section 4 or Section 5, the Earnest Money Deposit shall
continue to be held by the Title Company, but shall then be nonrefundable to
Buyer, except in the event of a default by Seller, or a failure of a
condition of Buyer to Closing pursuant to Section 9, or except as otherwise
specifically provided herein.

          D.   Bond Objectives.

               (i)  In connection with the acquisition of the Property, Buyer

on the Citibank Letter of Credit in the amount up to the principal amount of
the Bonds and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, (B) Citibank, N.A. shall
reimburse itself from the Buyer Collateral for the full amount of such draw,
and (C) the Citibank Letter of Credit shall be returned to Citibank, N.A. and
Citibank, N.A. shall return to Buyer any unused portion of the Buyer
Collateral.

               (ii) Seller hereby agrees to cooperate with Buyer in
connection with the achievement of the Bond Objectives.  The cooperation of
Seller shall include the execution of documents and certificates reasonably
necessary to accomplish the Bond Objectives to the extent that Seller
participation is necessary, as well as customary warranties and

     8.   Representations of Seller.

          A.   Seller, to induce Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to

true as of the date hereof and shall be true as of the Closing Date:

               (i)  Exhibit "B" hereto (the "Rent Roll") is a true, complete
and correct listing of all existing leases (including all amendments or side

              (ii)  There are no leases, tenancies, licenses or other rights
of occupancy or use for any portion of the Premises other than as set forth

used by Seller in all material respects in connection with Seller's leasing

Tenant Leases is valid and subsisting and in full force and effect, has not

to Buyer constitute the sole agreements binding upon the owner of the
Premises and the respective tenants of the Premises with respect to the
Premises.

             (iii)  The rents set forth on Exhibit "B" are the actual rents

which is toxic, explosive, corrosive, flammable, infectious, radioactive,
carcinogenic, mutagenic or otherwise hazardous, including petroleum, its
derivatives, by-products and other hydrocarbons and is regulated by any
governmental authority, including any agency, department, commission, board
or instrumentality of the United States, the state, or any political
subdivision thereof, where the Property is located; provided, however, that
Hazardous Substances shall not include material used or stored in the
ordinary course of business in connection with the operation or maintenance
of the Property in compliance in all material respects with all Environmental
Laws.  

             (xii)  Seller presently causes to be maintained policies of
insurance with respect to the Premises which policies insure the Premises in
amounts deemed adequate by Seller in the exercise of reasonable commercial
judgment against all risks usually insured against by persons operating
similar properties and underwriting similar operations in the locality where
the Premises are located.

            (xiii)  To the best of Seller's knowledge, there is no action,

             (xvi)  The persons signing this Agreement on behalf of Seller
have the requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement
in the name of Seller and to create thereby a binding obligation of Seller,
and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will not
constitute a default under any agreement of Seller, require the consent under
any such agreement or of any person or give any person any right to terminate
any Tenant Lease or other agreement relating to the Premises. 
Notwithstanding the above, Buyer acknowledges that as of the Effective Date,
Seller is soliciting approval from its constituent partners but has not yet
received the required number of approval votes.  Seller shall exercise
reasonable efforts to obtain such approval.  In the event that Seller is
unable to obtain such approval within ten (10) days from the Effective Date,
Seller will promptly so notify Buyer in writing, whereupon this Agreement
shall terminate and the Earnest Money Deposit shall be forthwith returned to
Buyer.  Seller's failure to notify Buyer in writing on or before ten (10)
days from the Effective Date that it has not received such approval shall
constitute Seller's waiver of the foregoing condition.

(i) interior or exterior structural defects in the Improvements or mechanical
systems of the Improvements, (ii) defects in the plumbing, electrical,

days written notice.  Seller has not entered into any management agreement
for the Premises which will be in effect on the Closing Date.

             (xix)  Utility services to the Premises, including but not
limited to water, sewer, telephone, cable TV, electric and gas, are being
provided in sufficient quantities to permit the use and occupation of the
Premises for the intended use.

            (xxii)  Regardless of whether Seller would otherwise be obligated
under Colorado law, Seller has paid, has caused to be paid or will pay any
and all taxes incurred by it as a result of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, including, but not limited to transfer taxes, gains taxes,
sales and use taxes and bulk sales taxes.

           (xxiii)  To the best of Seller's knowledge, the Property, the use
of the Property and the transfer of the Property pursuant to this Agreement

other similar law, code, ordinance or regulation relating to the Property.

            (xxiv)  Except for any default that will be fully cured on or
before the Closing Date, Seller is not in default in the payment of principal
or interest or other amounts due under the Existing Encumbrance, and to the
knowledge of Seller there are no other defaults, and no facts exist which,
with the giving of notice and/or the passage of time, would constitute a
default, under the Existing Encumbrance, any regulatory agreement executed in
connection therewith, or any other documents relating to or executed in
connection with the Existing Encumbrance.

          B.   Seller has not knowingly failed to disclose anything material
in connection with the Premises.

          C.   Seller has not received any written notice from the insurance
companies insuring the Premises requiring Seller to perform any work at the

to or upon the Property or any portion thereof; (iii) any violation of the
applicable laws, ordinances, rules or regulations regarding the Property or
any portion thereof; or (iv) any proceeding which could affect or cloud title
to or ownership of the Property, or any part thereof, notify Buyer of the

and Closing at the Property, Seller shall give written notice thereof to
Buyer with a reasonably detailed description of the event, occurrence or
condition in question.  Seller shall immediately furnish to Buyer copies of
all written communications received between the date of this Agreement and

citations that any Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Substances
or any violation of any Environmental Laws has actually or allegedly
occurred) or given between the date of this Agreement and Closing by Seller
to any person concerning any past or present Release or threatened Release of

at the Closing.  In the event that on the Closing Date, any tenant is in
arrears in the payment of rent for the month of the Closing and/or any months
prior thereto, Buyer shall hold any rents (net of the reasonable costs of
collection) collected after the Closing Date from such tenant in trust for
the benefit of Seller, and shall promptly remit such rents (net of reasonable
costs of collection) to Seller for application in reduction of such
arrearage; provided, however, that no sums received by Buyer shall be so paid
to Seller for application to rents in arrears unless and until such rent and
other charges due for the periods subsequent to the Closing shall have been
received and retained by Buyer.

                    b.   Buyer agrees to bill tenants, and to send Seller
copies of all rent bills within a reasonable time, for all charges payable by
them, and other charges due under the Tenant Leases and for which charges
Buyer is entitled to payment of all or a portion thereof, and Buyer shall
promptly remit to Seller Seller's share of such sums up to the Closing Date,
after collection.  Subject to subsection (v)a above, Buyer shall have the
right, in good faith, to settle or adjust any amount of such rents or charges
due from any tenant without Seller's prior consent, provided that such
settlement or adjustment applies ratably to all amounts of such charges due
from such tenant.

                    c.   Buyer agrees to use reasonable efforts to collect
rent arrearages due Seller from tenants, provided that Buyer shall not be
obligated to commence any litigation against such tenants, incur any expense
in collecting such arrearages (other than the expense of routine billing) or
terminate a Tenant Lease.

              (vi) Real Estate Taxes and Special Assessments. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) real estate
taxes shall be prorated on the basis of the latest valuations and mill
levies, and shall be subject to readjustment as soon as the actual valuation
and mill levies for the year of Closing are conclusively determined, (ii)
Seller shall be responsible to pay in full at or prior to Closing any special
assessments which may be a lien on the Property for improvements to the
Property such as, but not limited to, curb and gutter, sidewalk, street and
alley improvements, and (iii) assessments on the Property by special
districts that impose periodic assessments to provide the Property with
services such as fire protection and water and sanitation facilities shall be
prorated as of the Closing Date.

               (vii)  Such other items of income and expenses as are
customarily prorated in real estate transactions.

          B.   Seller shall furnish readings of the water, gas and electric
meters at the Premises to the Closing Date.  Seller shall cooperate with
Buyer to provide, as of the Closing Date, for a cancellation of electricity
and other utility services in Seller's name and a resumption thereof in
Buyer's name.  If such a timely cancellation and resumption occurs, there
shall be no proration of water, gas and electric charges as provided in
Section 12A(i).

          C.   All transfer taxes and all sales and use taxes imposed on or
in connection with this transaction shall be paid by Seller, regardless of
whether Seller would otherwise be obligated under Colorado law.  Seller and
Buyer shall each execute and swear to the returns in connection with the
aforesaid taxes.

          D.   If in connection with the assumption by Buyer of Seller's
obligations under the Existing Encumbrance Documents, Seller transfers to
Buyer the interest of Seller in any deposits, escrows or funds held by the
holder of the Existing Encumbrance, then Seller shall receive a credit for
the actual amount of such deposits, escrows or funds so transferred.  In
addition, Buyer shall receive a credit for any accrued, but unpaid interest
on the Existing Encumbrance attributable to the period prior to the Closing
Date.  If and to the extent the terms of this Section 12D conflict with the
Assumption Agreement to which Buyer and Seller are a party, the terms of the
Assumption Agreement shall control.

     13.  Casualty Loss.

          A.   Seller shall cause the insurance policies now in effect with
respect to the Premises to be maintained until the Closing.  If at any time
prior to the Closing Date, any portion of the Premises is destroyed or
damaged as a result of fire or any other casualty whatsoever, Seller shall
promptly give written notice thereof to Buyer and, within ten (10) days
thereafter, shall provide Buyer with an estimate of the cost of restoring the
Premises to the condition it was in immediately before such damage or
destruction.

          B.   If the cost of restoring and repairing the portion of the
Premises so damaged to substantially its present condition is not more than
Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 ($250,000.00) Dollars, as reasonably
estimated by a general contractor selected by Seller and reasonably approved
by Buyer, then Buyer shall have no right to terminate this Agreement and
shall purchase the Premises in its damaged condition and be fully responsible
for repair thereto, but without reduction of the Purchase Price or any other
claim or offset.  Seller shall assign to Buyer the right to receive all
insurance proceeds payable to Seller as a result of such fire or other
casualty, provided that Seller shall be entitled to retain, to the extent
theretofore paid, and shall not be obligated to assign the right to receive,
to the extent not theretofore paid, an amount of such insurance proceeds
equal to Seller's expenses incurred in collecting such proceeds and any sums
expended by Seller in connection with the repair of such damage or
destruction.  Seller shall pay to or credit Buyer with the amount of the
deductible under the insurance policy covering the Premises.

          C.   If the cost of restoring and repairing the portion of the
Premises so damaged to substantially its present condition is more than Two
Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 ($250,000.00) Dollars, as reasonably
estimated by a general contractor selected by Seller and reasonably approved
by Buyer, then Buyer shall have the option, to be exercised within five (5)
business days from the date of Buyer's receipt of such estimate, to terminate
this Agreement, in which case the Earnest Money Deposit (and the Additional
Earnest Money Deposit, if applicable) shall be returned to Buyer and neither
party hereto shall have any further duties, obligations or liabilities to the
other.  If Buyer shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as provided
above, then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the
provisions of Section 13B hereof shall apply to such damage and any insurance
proceeds payable in connection therewith.

     14.  Brokerage.  Seller and Buyer each represent and warrant to each
other that it has not dealt with any broker or other intermediary, in
connection with or relating to the sale and purchase which is the subject of
this Agreement.  Seller and Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold the other
harmless from and against any and all liability, claim, charge or damages,
including without limitation, counsel fees and court costs, incurred by the
other as a result of any breach by the indemnitor of the foregoing
representation.

     15.  Eminent Domain.

          A.   If at any time prior to the Closing Date, there shall be a
taking by eminent domain proceedings or the commencement of any such
proceedings, with respect to all or any "material part" of the Premises,
Seller shall promptly give written notice thereof to Buyer, and Buyer shall
have the right, at Buyer's sole option, to terminate this Agreement by giving
written notice to Seller before the earlier to occur of (i) thirty (30) days
after Buyer receives written notice of such proceedings or (ii) the Closing
Date, in which event the Earnest Money Deposit (and the Additional Earnest
Money Deposit, if applicable) shall be returned to Buyer.  If Buyer does not
so terminate this Agreement, the purchase price for the Premises shall be
reduced by the total of any awards or other proceeds received by Seller
(directly or indirectly) with respect to any such taking, and at the Closing
Seller shall assign to Buyer all rights of Seller in and to any awards or
other proceeds payable by reason of any taking.  For purposes of this Section
15A, a taking by eminent domain or condemnation proceedings that results in a
diminution in value of the Premises by $250,000.00 or more or an award of
$250,000.00 or more shall be deemed to be a taking of a "material part" of
the Premises.

          B.   Until such time as the Closing has occurred, or this Agreement
terminates, any negotiation for or agreement to, and all contests of, any
offers and awards relating to eminent domain proceedings shall be conducted
with the joint approval and consent of Seller and Buyer.

     16.  Acceptance of Property "As Is".  Buyer acknowledges and agrees
that, prior to Closing it will have had full opportunity to inspect and
investigate every aspect of the Property, including all matters related to
legal status or requirements, physical condition, zoning, environmental
condition, title, leasing, contracts and all other matters of significance. 
Buyer specifically acknowledges and agrees that the Property is being sold in
an "AS IS" condition and "WITH ALL FAULTS" as of the date of the Closing. 
Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the
documents to be delivered by Seller to Buyer at the Closing, no statements,
representations or warranties have been made or are made, and no
responsibility has been or is assumed, by Seller, or by any partner, officer,
person, firm, agent or representative acting or purporting to act on behalf
of Seller, as to any matters concerning or that might in any manner affect
the Property, including the condition or repair of the Property or the value,
expense of operation, or income potential thereof, and Buyer is not relying
upon any such statement, representation or warranty.

          Further, to the extent that Seller has provided to Buyer
information or reports regarding any inspection, engineering, environmental
or other matters regarding any aspect of the Property, Seller makes no
representations or warranties with respect to the accuracy, completeness,
methodology of preparation or otherwise concerning the contents of such
reports.

     17.  Statutory Compliance.  SPECIAL TAXING DISTRICTS MAY BE SUBJECT TO
GENERAL OBLIGATION INDEBTEDNESS THAT IS PAID BY REVENUES PRODUCED FROM ANNUAL
TAX LEVIES ON THE TAXABLE PROPERTY WITHIN SUCH DISTRICTS.  PROPERTY OWNERS IN
SUCH DISTRICTS MAY BE PLACED AT RISK FOR INCREASED MILL LEVIES AND EXCESSIVE
TAX BURDENS TO SUPPORT THE SERVICING OF SUCH DEBT WHERE CIRCUMSTANCES ARISE
RESULTING IN THE INABILITY OF SUCH A DISTRICT TO DISCHARGE SUCH INDEBTEDNESS
WITHOUT SUCH AN INCREASE IN MILL LEVIES.  BUYER SHOULD INVESTIGATE THE DEBT
FINANCING REQUIREMENTS OF THE AUTHORIZED GENERAL OBLIGATION INDEBTEDNESS OF
SUCH DISTRICTS, EXISTING MILL LEVIES OF SUCH DISTRICT SERVICING SUCH
INDEBTEDNESS, AND THE POTENTIAL FOR AN INCREASE IN SUCH MILL LEVIES.  (C.R.S.
SECTION 38-35.7-101).

     18.  Further Assurances.  Buyer and Seller shall execute and deliver
each to the other such documents and instruments and take such further
actions as may be reasonably necessary or required to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     19.  Entire Agreement.  This is the entire agreement between the parties
and there are no other terms, obligations, covenants, representations,
statements or conditions, oral or otherwise, of any kind whatsoever.  Any
agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to change, modify, discharge or
effect an abandonment of this Agreement in whole or in part unless such
agreement is in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement of
the change, modification, discharge or abandonment is sought.

     20.  Survival.  Except as otherwise provided herein, all agreements,
warranties and representations contained herein shall survive Closing, and
shall not be deemed to have merged into the deed.

     21.  Notices.  All notices, requests and other communications under this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by certified or registered
mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight courier or may be personally

     22.  Remedies.  If any obligation hereunder is not performed as herein
provided, there shall be the following remedies:

          A.   If Buyer defaults in its obligation to purchase the Property
when and as required hereby, then it shall forfeit the Earnest Money Deposit

provided to the contrary, and both parties shall thereafter be released from
all obligations hereunder.  It is agreed that the forfeiture of the Earnest
Money Deposit and the Additional Earnest Money Deposit, if applicable,
constitutes liquidated damages and is Seller's sole and exclusive remedy for
Buyer's failure to perform its obligations to purchase the Property as
required hereby.  Seller expressly waives the remedies of specific
performance and additional damages.

          B.   If Seller is in default, (i) Buyer may elect to treat this

Additional Earnest Money Deposit, if applicable, shall be returned to Buyer
and Buyer may recover such damages as may be proper, and/or (ii) Buyer may
elect to treat this Agreement as being in full force and effect, and Buyer
shall have the right to an action for specific performance or damages, or
both.

     23.  Miscellaneous.

shall be bound or have any personal liability hereunder or thereunder. 
Seller shall look solely to the assets of Buyer for satisfaction of any

     THIS AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT OF PURCHASE AND SALE ("Amendment") is made

     NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
