ARTICLE II

TITLE AND SURVEY

 

2.1                                 Commitment for Title Insurance. Seller has delivered to Purchaser, a
Commitment for Title Insurance (the “Title Commitment”), issued by Lawyers
Title Insurance Corporation, through its national accounts office in Richmond,
Virginia (the “Title Company”), covering the Realty, showing all matters
affecting title to the Realty and binding the Title Company to issue an Owner
Policy of Title Insurance (such policy in the amount of the Purchase Price with
extended coverage and the Special Endorsements described below is referred to
herein as the “Owner’s Title Policy”). Promptly after the Effective Date,
Seller shall request that the Title Company modify the Title Commitment to add
Purchaser as the proposed insured, specify that coverage will be equal to the
Purchase Price and commit to issue the following endorsements (the “Special
Endorsements”): 3.1 zoning (long form) with parking and loading docks, owner’s
comprehensive, survey, access, P.I.N., subdivision, utility facility,
contiguity, environmental lien, removal of creditor’s rights exception, and
removal of the arbitration clause. If the Title Company does not, within seven
(7) days after the Effective Date, (i) modify the Title Commitment as required
above and (ii) commit in writing to issue one or more of the Special
Endorsements (subject only to satisfaction of customary underwriting requirements),
Purchaser shall either (i) agree that the Special Endorsement in question need
not be issued such that the requirement is waived or (ii) terminate this
Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money. Such election shall be
made prior to the Due Diligence Deadline, as defined in Section 3.3 below.
To the extent not previously delivered, the Title Company shall deliver copies
of instruments listed as exceptions to title, the same being as legible as the
record permits. If the Title Commitment shall reveal any exception that is
objectionable to Purchaser, Purchaser may deliver written notice to Seller
objecting to such exception not later than the Due Diligence Deadline.
Purchaser’s failure to deliver written notice of objection prior to the Due Diligence
Deadline shall be deemed approval by Purchaser of all matters shown on the
Title Commitment. Within two (2) Business Days after receipt of Purchaser’s
notice of objection, Seller shall indicate in writing whether Seller agrees to
cure such objection, with Seller’s failure to respond being deemed an election
not to cure. Seller shall be under no obligation to cure any title exception,
but if Seller shall fail to cure or commit in writing to cure any of Purchaser’s
objections within such two (2) Business Day period, Purchaser may either (i)
waive such objection, or (ii) terminate this Agreement. Purchaser’s failure to
waive all unsatisfied objections prior to the date scheduled for Closing shall
constitute an election to terminate. Purchaser shall receive a refund of the
Earnest Money upon such termination or deemed termination.

 

2.2                                 Survey. Seller has delivered to Purchaser a copy of the latest survey of the
Property prepared by a licensed surveyor (the “Surveyor”). Seller shall cause
the Surveyor to prepare an updated survey of the Realty certified as of a date
no more than thirty (30) days prior to delivery thereof (the “Survey”).  The Survey shall meet the requirements of, and
be certified in accordance with, the current requirements for an urban survey
jointly established and adopted by

 

3

 

the
American Land Title Association and the American Congress on Surveying and
Mapping with all Table A options, excluding Items 5 (contours) and Item
7(b)(3). Two (2) copies of the Survey shall be delivered to each of Seller,
Purchaser and the Title Company not later than ten (10) days after the
Effective Date.

 

2.3                                 Owner’s Title Policy. At Closing, the Title Company shall furnish
to Purchaser the Owner’s Title Policy with the Special Endorsements, insuring
title to the Realty, in the amount of the Purchase Price, subject only to the
Permitted Exceptions, except:

 

(a)                                  The exception relating to discrepancies,
conflicts or shortages in area or boundary lines, or any encroachment or any
overlapping of improvements which a survey might show shall be modified to
delete such exception, except as to shortages in area, and substitute matters
shown on the Survey in lieu thereof;

 

(b)                                 The exception relating to ad valorem taxes shall
be limited to taxes owing for the current and subsequent years; and

 

(c)                                  There shall be no exception for (i) “parties
in possession” other than parties claiming under Leases or (ii) yet to be filed
materialmen’s or mechanics’ liens.

ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY RELIANCE BY PURCHASER ON OR USE OF SUBMISSION
ITEMS SHALL BE AT THE SOLE RISK OF PURCHASER.

 

3.2                                 Right of Inspection. Purchaser shall have the right from the
date of execution of this Agreement until the Due Diligence Deadline, as
defined in Section 3.3 below (and thereafter until the Closing, if this
Agreement is not terminated by Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.3 below),
to make physical inspections of the Property, to interview Tenants, and to
examine all books and records maintained by Seller relating to the Property
(excluding information relating solely to Seller’s partnership affairs [the “Proprietary

located. Prior to entry on the Property, Purchaser shall provide evidence of
liability insurance with minimum limits of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00)

from such inspection and examination. 
All inspections and Tenant interviews shall occur at reasonable times
agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser and shall be conducted so as not to
unreasonably interfere with use of the Property by Seller or the Tenants.

3.3                                 Due Diligence Period. Purchaser shall have the right to terminate
this Agreement for any reason or no reason by delivering written notice of
termination to Seller and the Title Company (the “Termination Notice”) no later
than 5:00 p.m. (EST) on December 20, 2004 (the “Due Diligence Deadline”).  If Purchaser affirmatively elects to proceed
with Closing by delivering written notice of acceptance to Seller on or before
the Due Diligence Deadline or Purchaser fails to deliver a Termination Notice
prior to the Due Diligence Deadline, (i) this Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect, (ii) Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to close and
(ii) Purchaser shall, on or before the Due Diligence Deadline, deliver to
Escrow Agent the sum of Eight Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($800,000.00)
(the “Additional Earnest Money”) to be treated as Earnest Money for all
purposes and applied against the Purchase Price at Closing.  If Purchaser timely delivers a Termination

5

described in Sections 4.2(b), 4.2(c), 4.2(d), and 4.2(g) hereof, respectively;
and

 

(c)                                  deliver to Seller such evidence as Seller
and/or the Title Company may reasonably require as to the authority of the
person or persons executing documents on behalf of Purchaser.

 

4.4                                 Prorations.

 

(a)                                  The following shall be apportioned as of the
Closing Date with respect to the Property:

 

(i)                                     rents collected under the Leases for the
month of Closing and each Tenant’s portion of operating expenses;

 

(ii)                                  percentage rent payable under the Leases
(with any percentage rent received by Purchaser after Closing being allocated
and prorated across the entire calendar year in which percentage rent accrued
as opposed to only the months in which percentage rent is actually payable or
collected);

 

(iii)                               real property and tangible personal property ad valorem taxes with respect
to the Realty and the Personalty for the current year, with any apportionment
of such taxes for a tax year as to which either the tax rate or the assessed
valuation, or both, have not yet been fixed to be made upon the basis of the
tax rate and/or assessed valuation last fixed; provided that Seller and
Purchaser agree that, to the extent the actual taxes for the current year
differ from the amount so apportioned at Closing, Seller and Purchaser will
make all necessary adjustments by appropriate payments between themselves
following Closing;

 

(iv)                              current expenses under the Operating Agreements that will remain in
effect after Closing; and

 

8

 

(v)                                 gas, electricity, water, trash disposal and
other utility charges with respect to the Realty.

 

(b)                                 In making such apportionments, Purchaser
shall be entitled to rents and other income earned and due from the Property
with respect to the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall be responsible for real
property taxes and other expenses accrued or incurred with respect to the
Closing Date.  All such apportionments
shall be subject to post-Closing adjustments as necessary to reflect later
relevant information not available at Closing (including the amount of
percentage rents due after Closing) and to correct any errors made at Closing
with respect to such apportionments and the party receiving more than it was
entitled to hereunder shall reimburse the other party hereto in the amount of such
overpayment within thirty (30) days after receiving written demand therefor. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, such apportionments shall be deemed final and not subject to
further post-Closing adjustments if no such adjustments have been requested after
a period of thirty (30) days from such time as all necessary information is
available to make a complete and accurate determination of such apportionments;
provided that any prorated percentage rent due to Seller shall be paid to
Seller upon receipt without request or demand. 
All other matters with respect to apportionments shall be governed by
the Closing Statement. The provisions of this Section 4.4(b) shall survive
the Closing.

 

(c)                                  At Closing, Seller shall credit to the
account of Purchaser against the Purchase Price allocable to the Realty any
security deposits or prepaid rent, the continuing obligations for which are actually
and explicitly transferred to Purchaser at Closing pursuant to any Leases
executed by Seller or Seller’s predecessors in interest, as lessor, which will
continue in effect after Closing, and Seller shall retain all security deposits
and prepaid rent.

 

(d)                                 After Closing, Purchaser shall use
commercially efforts to collect any delinquent rents or other payments due as
of the Closing Date, and shall pay such amounts to Seller within ten (10)
Business Days after collection.  Any
rents and other payments collected after Closing shall be applied first to
current charges and then to delinquencies. If delinquencies remain unpaid
within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall be entitled to
pursue its own collection efforts, but Seller shall not have any right to file
any action to evict any Tenant that is delinquent.

 

4.5                                 Closing Costs. Seller shall pay (a) the fees of any
counsel representing it in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby,
(b) the premium for the Owner’s Title Policy standard coverage (excluding
extended coverage and any endorsements desired by Purchaser), and (c) one-half
(1/2) of any escrow fees charged by the Title Company. Purchaser shall pay (a)
the fees of any counsel representing Purchaser in connection with the
transaction contemplated hereby, (b) the premium for the Owner’s Title Policy
extended coverage and any endorsements obtained by Purchaser, (c) the cost of
the Survey, (d) the cost of any tests, inspections or environmental site
assessments conducted or obtained by Purchaser, (e) transfer taxes, documentary
stamps and similar charges (if any, Seller having been advised that Arizona
does not impose such taxes, stamps or charges), (f) recording fees due in
connection with the recording of the Deed and other conveyance documents; and
(g) one-half (1/2) of any escrow

 

9

 

fees
charged by the Title Company. Purchaser shall also reimburse Seller for the
cost of the Phase I environmental site assessment obtained by Seller from URS
Corporation (or one of its affiliates); provided that issuer of such assessment
delivers a reliance letter to Purchaser.  All other costs and expenses incident to the
transaction contemplated hereby and the closing thereof shall be paid by the
party incurring the same.

 

4.6                                 Closing Constitutes Waiver. 
Notwithstanding Article V and without limiting Section 9.1
below, if any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement
or in any certificate delivered in connection herewith are materially false or inaccurate,
or Seller is in breach or default of any of its obligations under this
Agreement, but Purchaser nonetheless closes the transaction hereunder and
purchases the Property, then (i) Seller shall have no liability or obligation
respecting such false or inaccurate representations or warranties or other
breach or default (and any cause of action resulting therefrom shall terminate upon
the Closing) in the event and to the extent that on or prior to the Closing,
Purchaser shall have had actual knowledge of the false or inaccurate
representations or warranties or other breach or default, and (ii) to the
extent the Submission Items furnished to Purchaser contain provisions or
information that are inconsistent with the foregoing representations and
warranties (unless Seller had knowledge of such inconsistency and willfully
failed to disclose the same to Purchaser), such representations and warranties
shall be deemed to be modified to the extent necessary to eliminate such
inconsistency and to conform such representations and warranties to such
Submission Items.

 

4.7                                 Changed Circumstance.  If
Seller obtains actual knowledge of any changed circumstance that causes any
representation or warranty of Seller to no longer be true in any material
respect (the “Material Changed Circumstance”), Seller shall promptly send
written notice thereof to Purchaser describing the Material Changed
Circumstance and the manner in which it has made any of Seller’s
representations or warranties herein untrue. As used herein, a change in Seller’s
representation and warranty shall be deemed “material” if (i) the market value of
the Property is decreased by more than $100,000 as a result of such Material
Changed Circumstance, or (ii) it is a Lease Status Representation (as defined
in Section 5.1(c) below.  If Purchaser
does not approve the Material Changed Circumstance in writing on or before the Closing
Date, Seller shall not be in default and Seller shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to attempt to remedy the Material Changed Circumstance.  In the Seller fails or refuses to remedy the
Material Changed Circumstance to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser on or
before the Closing Date, Seller shall have the right to extend the Closing Date
for up to thirty (30) days to attempt to remedy the same.  If Seller has not remedied the Material
Adverse Change on or before the Closing Date (including the extension provided above),
Purchaser shall, as its sole and exclusive remedy,  either (i) waive and approve the Material
Changed Circumstance, in which event the applicable representation or warranty
shall be deemed modified, or (ii) terminate this Agreement, in which event the
Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser and neither Seller nor Purchaser
shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder one to the other except
with respect to these obligations which expressly survive the termination of
this Agreement.

failure to pay rent and other sums when due, and there exists no material non-monetary

to perform its material obligations under the Leases (the representations in
the foregoing subsections (i), (ii) and (iii) being referred to herein as “Lease

on the date of execution of this Agreement; (v) not voluntarily create any new lien
on the Property that will not be discharged at Closing out of the Purchase

(d)                                 pay all tenant improvement and other expenses

to Lease expansions or renewals occurring after the Effective Date, or (ii) any

foregoing expenses in items (i) and (ii) being Purchaser’s costs if Closing

5.3                                 Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser hereby makes the following
representations and warranties to Seller, which representations and warranties

(a)                                  Purchaser is a corporation, duly organized
and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Illinois.

as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Patriot Act”); and (iii)
Purchaser shall not (A) be or become subject at any time to any law,
regulation, or list of any government agency (including, without limitation,
the list maintained by OFAC and accessible through the OFAC website) that
prohibits or limits Seller from conducting business with Purchaser or (B) fail
to provide documentary and other evidence of Purchaser’s identity as may be
requested by Seller at any time to enable Seller to verify Purchaser’s identity

ARTICLE VI

DEFAULT

 

6.1                                 Default by Purchaser.  In

and receive the Earnest Money as liquidated damages.

 

6.2                                 Default by Seller. In the event that Seller fails to
consummate this Agreement for any reason, except Purchaser’s default, Purchaser
shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedies, either (a) to enforce
specific performance of this Agreement, or (b) to terminate this Agreement and
receive a refund of the Earnest Money, it being the intention of Seller and Purchaser
that specific performance should be awarded, if such performance is possible,
even though monetary damages or another remedy is otherwise available at
law.  Under no circumstance will Seller
be liable for consequential or other damages. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if specific performance is not available
because of an intentional default by Seller in contravention of this Agreement,
Purchaser may recover the out of pocket costs incurred by Purchaser in
connection with this Agreement up to a maximum of Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000.00).

 

6.3                                 Limitation of Liability.

any documents executed in connection herewith, if the Closing of the transaction
contemplated hereunder shall have occurred, the aggregate liability of Seller
arising pursuant to or in connection with the representations, warranties,
covenants or other obligations (whether express or implied) of Seller under
this Agreement (or any document or certificate executed or delivered in
connection herewith) shall not exceed One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00),
absent fraud by Seller.  The provisions
of this Section 6.3 shall survive the Closing.

 

6.4                                 No Limitation of Indemnification Obligations. 
Sections 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 shall not limit the liability of any party
for, or the ability of any party to fully enforce, any indemnification provision
of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

RISK OF LOSS

 

7.1                                 In the event of any damage or destruction to
any portion of the Property prior to the Closing Date, the estimated cost of
repair of which, as determined by a third party contractor selected by Seller
and approved by Purchaser, is in excess of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00),
or any tenant under a Lease has a right to terminate its Lease by virtue of
such damage or destruction unless such termination right is waived in writing
by such tenant, Purchaser may cither terminate this Agreement and receive a
refund of the Earnest Money, or Purchaser may elect to consummate the
transaction contemplated hereby, in which event Seller’s right to all insurance
proceeds resulting from such damage or destruction shall be assigned in writing
by Seller to Purchaser (less any amounts previously expended by Seller to restore
the Property and less any rent loss or business interruption insurance proceeds
attributable to the period prior to Closing), Seller shall credit Purchaser the
amount of its insurance deductible at Closing and Seller shall have no further
obligation to Purchaser with regard to such damage or destruction. In the event
of any damage or destruction to the Property prior to the Closing Date, the
estimated cost of repair of which, as determined by a third party contractor
selected by Seller and approved by Purchaser, is Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000.00) or less and no tenant under a Lease has a right to terminate its
Lease by virtue of such damage or destruction (unless such termination right is
waived in writing by such tenant), Purchaser shall have no right to terminate
this Agreement as a result thereof, and all of Seller’s right to all insurance
proceeds resulting from such damage or destruction shall be assigned in writing
by Seller to Purchaser (less any amounts previously expended by Seller to
restore the Property and less any rent loss or business interruption insurance
proceeds attributable to the period prior to Closing), Seller shall credit
Purchaser the amount of its insurance deductible at Closing and Seller shall
have no further obligation to Purchaser with regard to such damage or
destruction.

 

7.2                                 In the event of a taking by condemnation or
similar proceedings or actions of all or any material portion of the Property,
prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the option to terminate this
Agreement upon written notice to Seller prior to Closing. If Purchaser does not
exercise its option under the immediately preceding sentence of this Section to
terminate this Agreement, then the Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect and Seller shall assign or pay to Purchaser, at Closing, Seller’s entire
interest in and to any and all condemnation awards or proceeds from any such
proceedings or actions in lieu thereof (less any reasonable costs incurred to
obtain to awards). Any termination under this Section 7.2 shall constitute
a termination of all of Purchaser’s rights to acquire the Property.

 

7.3                                 The parties shall have the rights and duties
set forth in this Article VII rather than as prescribed by the Uniform
Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act.

 

ARTICLE VIII

COMMISSIONS

 

8.1                                 Each party represents to the other that there
has been no broker, finder, real estate agent or similar agent engaged in
connection with the sale of the Property from Seller to Purchaser as
contemplated hereby, except for CB Richard Ellis Real Estate Services, Inc.,
which

 

14

 

has
served exclusively as Seller’s broker (“Seller’s Broker”). Seller shall pay any
commission due to Seller’s Broker pursuant to a separate agreement; provided
that Seller’s obligation to pay, and the right of Seller’s Broker to receive,
any such commission is expressly conditioned upon consummation of the Closing
and Seller’s receipt of the Purchase Price hereunder. Each party agrees that
should any claim be made for brokerage commissions or finder’s fees by any
broker, finder or agent by, through or on account of any acts of the
indemnifying party or its agents, employees or representatives, the
indemnifying party will hold the other party free and harmless from and against
any and all loss, liability, cost, damage and expense (including, without
limitation, attorneys’ fees, accountants’ fees, court costs and interest) in
connection therewith. The provisions of this Section 8.1 shall survive the
Closing.

Purchaser recognizes, understands and agrees that Purchaser will become aware
of certain information regarding the ownership and operation of the Property,
including, specifically, without limitation, the information to be provided to Purchaser
pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof and the information to be obtained by
Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof. 
Purchaser agrees that, unless required pursuant to a subpoena properly
issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, or as may be required in Purchaser’s
reasonable opinion to be disclosed in any SEC or other regulatory filings, it
shall not disclose any such information to any third party or parties, except
to agents, employees or independent contractors advising or assisting Purchaser
with the transaction contemplated hereby, potential or actual investors,
potential and actual lenders of all or a portion of the Purchase Price;
provided that such parties likewise agree or are otherwise bound to keep such
information confidential.

 

(b)                                 Purchaser and Seller each hereby covenants
that (i) prior to the Closing neither Purchaser nor Seller shall issue any
press release or public statement (a “Release”) with respect to the transaction
without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, except to the
extent required by applicable law, and (ii) after the Closing, any Release
issued by Purchaser or Seller shall be subject to the prior review and approval
of the other party hereto (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), except to the extent required by applicable law.  If Purchaser or Seller is required by
applicable law to issue a Release, such party shall, at least two (2) Business
Days prior to the issuance of the same, deliver a copy of the proposed Release
(other than any SEC filing) to the other party (as appropriate) for its review.

 

9.6                                 Reporting Requirements.  The
Title Company shall serve as the “real estate reporting person” as that term is
defined in Section 6045(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended.  This Agreement shall constitute
a designation agreement, the name and address of the transferor and transferee
of the transaction contemplated hereby appear in Section 9.3 hereof and
Seller, Purchaser and the Title Company agree to retain a copy of this
Agreement for a period of four (4) years following the end of the calendar year
in which Closing occurs. The provisions of this Section 9.6 shall survive
the Closing.

 

9.7                                 Time of Essence. 
Seller and Purchaser agree that time is of the essence with regard to
this Agreement.

 

9.8                                 Business Days.  If

Business Day.  As used herein, the term “Business
Day” shall mean Monday through Friday, excluding bank holidays on which

9.13                           Fees and Expenses.  In
the event of any controversy, claim or dispute between Seller and Purchaser

expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, accountants’ fees,
court costs and interest.

 

9.14                           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple

in proving the existence, validity or content of this Agreement.

 

9.15                           Severability.  If
any provision hereof is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall nonetheless remain
in full force and effect.

 

9.16                           Section and Exhibit Headings. Section and exhibit headings contained

OR ANY

 

20

 

OTHER
INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH,
OR (ii) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF
THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER
INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH,
OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW
EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR
OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM,
DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A
JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR
A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT
OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

 

9.18                           Binding Effect.  This

Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal
laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to the conflicts of laws principles
thereof.

 

9.20                           No Third Party Beneficiary.  The
provisions hereof and of the documents to be executed and delivered at Closing
are and will be for the benefit of Seller and Purchaser only and are not for
the benefit of any third party, and accordingly, no third party shall have the
right to enforce the provisions hereof or of the documents to be executed and
delivered at Closing.

 

9.21                           No Recordation. In no event shall this Agreement or any
memorandum hereof be recorded by Purchaser or any agent or representative of
Purchaser in the public records.  Any such
recordation or attempted recordation shall constitute a breach of this
Agreement by Purchaser, in which event Seller shall be entitled to terminate
this Agreement and receive the Earnest Money from the Title Company and the
parties shall have no further liability hereunder, except for any liability
that expressly survives termination.

 

9.22                           Section 1031 Exchange. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
Seller’s rights under this Agreement may, at any time and without the consent
of Purchaser, be assigned to a “qualified intermediary” which Seller selects
for the purpose of effecting a tax deferred exchange of the Property for other
real property of like kind pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  No
such assignment shall release Seller from liability under this Agreement, and
Seller shall remain fully and primarily liable for performance of all Seller obligations
under this Agreement, notwithstanding such assignment.  Purchaser shall cooperate in all reasonable
respects with Seller and such qualified intermediary in order to effectuate the
exchange desired by Seller, but at no expense to and without imposition of any
liability or obligation on Purchaser.

 

9.23                           Effective Date. As used herein, the term “Effective Date”
shall mean the date of execution hereof by the last of Seller or Purchaser.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement effective as of the Effective
Date.
