accordance  with  generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied,
shall  be allocated between the Seller and the Purchaser as of the Closing Date.
The  Seller  shall  be  entitled  to  all income, including the Tray Ledger, and
responsible  for all expenses for the period of time up to but not including the
Closing  Date, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to all income and responsible
for  all  expenses  for the period of time from, after and including the Closing
Date.  Without  limiting  the  generality  of the foregoing, Seller shall pay to
Purchaser  or Purchaser shall pay to Seller at Closing, or     there shall be an
appropriate  Closing  adjustment  for,  the net cash payable to the Purchaser or
Seller,  as  appropriate,  based  on  the  allocation  set  forth  above.  All
adjustments  shall  be  shown on the settlement statement or may be done outside
the  settlement statement (with such supporting documentation as the parties may

submit  to  the parties as appropriate) and if on the settlement statement shall
increase  or  decrease  (as  the  case may be) the balance of the Purchase Price
payable by the Purchaser at Closing. The Seller shall pay at Closing all special
assessments  and  taxes  applicable  to  the Property and relating to the period
prior  to  Closing.

          (b)  If accurate allocations cannot be made at Closing because current
bills  are  not  obtainable (as, for example, in the case of utility bills), the
parties  shall allocate such income or expenses at Closing on the best available
information,  subject  to  adjustment  upon  receipt  of the final bill or other
evidence  of the applicable income or expense. Any expense paid by the Seller or
the  Purchaser  with  respect  to  the  Property after the Closing Date shall be

pay  or  reimburse  any  amount  due.

applied  against  accounts  receivable  and  other  obligations allocable to the
period  after the Closing Date. The Seller shall not sue an obligor with respect
to  the  Property  that  maintains a contractual relationship with the Purchaser
after  the  Closing  Date.

              ------------
Agreement,  it  may  choose  to  restore  the  Property  itself,  in  which
event  Seller  shall  assign  or  pay,  or  cause  to  be paid, to Purchaser all

     8.1  Liability of Purchaser. Except for any obligation expressly assumed or

agreed  to  be assumed by the Purchaser hereunder, the Purchaser does not assume
any  obligation  of  the  Seller  or any liability for claims arising out of any
occurrence  prior  to  Closing.

     8.2  Indemnification.
          ---------------

          (a)  The  Seller  hereby  indemnifies and holds the Purchaser harmless
from  and  against  any  and  all  claims,  costs,  penalties,  damages, losses,
liabilities  and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) that may at any
time  be incurred by the Purchaser, whether before or after Closing, as a result
of  any  material  breach  by  the  Seller  of  any of Seller's representations,
warranties,  covenants  or obligations set forth herein or in any other document
delivered  by  the Seller under this Agreement, or as a result of acts or events
occurring  prior  to  the  Closing  Date.

          (b)  The  Purchaser  hereby  indemnifies and holds the Seller harmless
from  and  against  any  and  all  claims,  costs,  penalties,  damages, losses,
liabilities  and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) that may at any
time  be incurred by the Seller, whether before or after Closing, as a result of
any  material  breach  by  the  Purchaser of any of Purchaser's representations,
warranties,  covenants  or obligations set forth herein or in any other document
delivered  by  the  Purchaser  under  this  Agreement, or as a result of acts or
events  occurring  after  the  Closing  Date.

     8.3  Termination  by Purchaser. If any condition set forth herein cannot or
          -------------------------
will  not  be  satisfied  prior  to Closing, or upon the occurrence of any other
event  that  would  entitle  the  Purchaser  to terminate this Agreement and its
obligations  hereunder,  the  Purchaser,  at its option, may elect either (a) to
terminate  this Agreement and all other rights and obligations of the Seller and
the  Purchaser  hereunder  shall  terminate immediately and the Deposit shall be
returned  to the Purchaser or (b) to waive its right to terminate and to proceed
to  Closing.  If  the  Purchaser terminates this Agreement as a consequence of a
material misrepresentation or breach of a warranty or covenant by the Seller, or
a  failure  by  the  Seller  to perform its obligations hereunder, the Purchaser
shall  have  all  remedies available hereunder or at law or in equity, including
but  not  limited  to  the  right  to  specific  performance  of this Agreement.

     8.4  Termination by Seller. If, prior to Closing, the Purchaser defaults in
          ---------------------
performing any of its obligations under this Agreement (including its obligation
to purchase the Property), the Seller's sole remedy for such default shall be to
terminate  this  Agreement and receive the Deposit. The Seller and the Purchaser
agree  that,  in  the event of such a default, the damages that the Seller would

                                       17
<PAGE>
sustain  as  a result thereof would be difficult if not impossible to ascertain.
The  Seller hereby waives and releases any and all other rights and remedies for
a  default by the Purchaser. Therefore, the Seller and the Purchaser agree that,
the  Seller shall retain the Deposit as full and complete liquidated damages and
as  the  Seller's  sole  remedy.

     9.9  Escrow  Agent.  The  Escrow  Agent  referred  to in the     definition
          -------------
thereof  contained  in  Paragraph  1.1  hereof has agreed to act as such for the
convenience  of  the  parties  without fee or other charges for such services as
Escrow  Agent.  The  Escrow Agent shall not be liable: (a) to any of the parties
for  any  act  or omission to act except for its own willful misconduct; (b) for

                                       19
<PAGE>
any  legal  effect, insufficiency, or undesirability of any instrument deposited
with  or delivered by Escrow Agent or exchange by the parties hereunder, whether
or  not Escrow Agent prepared such instrument; (c) for any loss or impairment of
funds  that have been deposited in escrow while those funds are in the course of
collection,  or  while those funds are on deposit in a financial institution, if
such  loss or impairment results from the failure, insolvency or suspension of a
financial  institution;  (d)  for  the  expiration  of  any  time limit or other
consequence  of  delay, unless a properly executed written instruction, accepted
by Escrow Agent, has instructed the Escrow Agent to comply with said time limit;
(e)  for  the  default, error, action or omission of either party to the escrow.
The  Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any document or paper received by
it,  believed  by such Escrow Agent, in good faith, to be bona fide and genuine.
The  Escrow  Agent  is counsel for Purchaser. It is agreed that the Escrow Agent
shall  not be disqualified from representing either party in connection with any
litigation which might arise out or in connection with this Agreement, merely by
virtue  of  the  fact  that  such Escrow Agent has agreed to act as Escrow Agent
hereunder.  Further,  in  that event of any dispute as to the disposition of the
Deposit or any other monies held in escrow, the Escrow Agent may, if such Escrow
Agent  so elects, interplead the parties by filing an interpleader action in any
court  having  subject  matter  jurisdiction  of  such a matter (to the personal
jurisdiction of which both parties do hereby consent), and pay into the registry
of  the  court  the  Deposit  and any other monies held in escrow, including all
interest  earned  thereon,  whereupon  such  Escrow  Agent shall be relieved and
released  from  any further liability as Escrow Agent hereunder. In the event of
such  interpleader  action,  the  Escrow  Agent  shall  not  be  disabled  from
representing a party hereto. Escrow Agent shall not be liable for Escrow Agent's
compliance with any legal process, subpoena, writs, orders, judgments and decree
of  any  court,  whether issued with or without jurisdiction, and whether or not
subsequently  vacated,  modified,  set  aside  or  reversed.

          --------------------------
this  reference  incorporated  herein  and  made  a  part  hereof.

           --------
agreements  of  the  Seller  and  the  Purchaser  made  in, or pursuant to, this
Agreement  shall  survive  Closing  and  shall  not  merge  into any document or
instrument  executed  and  delivered  in  connection  herewith.

     9.12  Further  Assurances.  The  Seller and the Purchaser each covenant and
           -------------------
agree  to  sign,  execute  and  deliver,  or  cause  to  be signed, executed and
delivered,  and  to  do  or  make, or cause to be done or made, upon the written
request  of the other party, any and all agreements, instruments, papers, deeds,
acts  or  things,  supplemental, confirmatory or otherwise, as may be reasonably
required  by  either  party  hereto  for  the  purpose  of or in connection with
consummating  the  transactions  described  herein.

     9.13  No Partnership. This Agreement does not and shall not be construed to
           --------------
create  a  partnership,  joint  venture  or  any  other relationship between the
parties  hereto  except  the  relationship  of Seller and Purchaser specifically
established  hereby.

     9.14 Like-Kind Exchange.  Seller  or  Purchaser may desire to designate the
     ----
purchase  or  sale  under  this Agreement to exchange with one or more like-kind
exchange properties as contemplated by Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code
("Sec.1031").  If  Seller  or  Purchaser  so elects and provides notices of such
election  to  the  other party, each party shall cooperate with the other in all
reasonable  ways  so  that  the  conveyance  of  the  Property, pursuant to this
Agreement,  will  qualify  for  nonrecognition treatment under Sec.1031. Without
limiting  the  generality  of  the  preceding,  each  party shall consent to the

                                       20
<PAGE>
assignment  of  this  Agreement  and the conveyance of the Property prior to the
Closing  to  a  third  party,  escrow  agent,  accommodation party, or qualified
intermediary  as  directed  by  the  other  party,  and  Purchaser shall pay the
purchase  price  to  such  person  as  directed  by  Seller. Notwithstanding the
preceding,  in  connection  with  any  like-kind exchange, the nonelecting party

          a.     Incur  any  additional  expense;

The  provisions  of  this  Section 15 shall be interpreted to be consistent with

to  be  executed  in  their  names  by  their  respective  duly-authorized
representatives  as  a  sealed  instrument.
