Purchaser's  intended use thereof.  Purchaser agrees, while conducting any tests
or  inspections  pursuant to the terms of this  Section  3.2, to use  reasonable
efforts to avoid any material disruption of the business activities conducted at
the Real Property. If and to the extent that any inspection or test performed by

Real Property,  Purchaser shall, at its own expense, restore such portion of the
Real Property so damaged or altered;  provided,  however,  that Purchaser  shall
have no obligation to remediate, repair or restore any physical or environmental
condition   existing  or  affecting  the  Real  Property  prior  to  Purchaser's
inspection  and/or discovery  thereof.  Except as specifically set forth in this
Section 3.2,  Purchaser  shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any loss,
injury, liability,  damage or expense,  including reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs,  directly  caused by  Purchaser  as a result and  arising  out of (a) any

the performance of any tests or inspections  conducted  pursuant to this Section
3.2, or (b) the failure of Purchaser to restore the Real  Property in accordance
with this Section 3.2; provided,  however,  that Purchaser shall not be required

damage or expense was caused by the  negligence  or  misconduct  of Seller,  its
employees or its agents.

after the  Effective  Date,  Seller  shall  deliver or cause to be  delivered to

Objections  and/or Survey Objections  identified in the Title/Survey  Notice. In
the event that, having used its best efforts to cure the Title Objections and/or

time,  on the Date of  Closing,  Purchaser  shall have ten (10) days in which to

Exceptions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller agrees at or prior to Closing
to  satisfy  and  cause to be  released  of  record  the  following  ("Must-Cure
Objections"): (i) any mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest granted
by Seller  to secure a loan or other  monetary  obligation,  including,  without
limitation,  that certain Deed of Trust from Seller in favor of Grayson National
Bank dated December 1, 2003 in the original  principal  amount of  $2,545,000.00

the Circuit Court of Grayson County, Virginia (the "Mortgage"),  (ii) Assignment
of Rents and Leases  recorded in Deed Book 418,  Page 123,  (iii) any  Financing
Statements,  mechanic's,  materialmen's,  tax,  judgment  or other lien  entered

the Property or Purchaser, as owner of the Property, and (iv) that all sanctions
fees, judgments and costs imposed by the Circuit Court of Grayson County in Case
No.  077CL0400006  be evidenced  in the Court  records as being  satisfied,  and
Seller expressly  agrees that its failure to cure any Must-Cure  Objection at or
prior to Closing shall constitute a material default by Seller hereunder.

                  3.5      Permitted  Exceptions.  Purchaser  shall accept title
to the  Property,  subject  only to the  following  exceptions  (the  "Permitted

Commitment  or on the  Survey,  and which were not  included  in a  Title/Survey
Notice given by Purchaser prior to the Date of Closing;  (b) which were included

<PAGE>

in a  Title/Survey  Notice,  but for which (i)  Seller  has  completed  the cure
thereof;  or (ii)  Purchaser  has, at  Purchaser's  sole option  waived the cure
thereof; or (c) which Purchaser has otherwise approved in writing;

                           3.5.2    All of the Assumed Contracts; and

                           3.5.3 The lien of  non-delinquent  real and  personal

right,  at any time  before 5:00 p.m.,  Washington,  D.C.  time,  on the Date of
Closing and in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate this Agreement for
any or no  reason  whatsoever.  In the event  that  Purchaser  fails to  deliver
written  notice to  Seller  of  Purchaser's  waiver  of the  foregoing  right of
termination,  Purchaser  shall be  deemed  to have  elected  to  terminate  this
Agreement  pursuant to this  Section  3.6,  in which event the Deposit  shall be
immediately  returned to Purchaser  upon demand  therefor,  without any right in
Seller to object  to,  delay or impede  such  refund  and  neither  party  shall
thereafter have any further rights, obligations or liability hereunder.

         9.       DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION AND CONDEMNATION.

                  9.1 Casualty.  Except as provided  herein,  Seller assumes all
risk of loss or damage to the Property by fire or other  casualty until the Deed
is properly recorded among the appropriate public records.  If at any time on or
prior to the Date of Closing any portion of the Property is destroyed or damaged
as a result of fire or any other cause  whatsoever,  Seller shall  promptly give
written  notice  thereof to  Purchaser.  In the event that (a) the total cost to
repair or  restore  such  destruction  or  damage,  as  determined  by  Seller's
insurance claim  adjuster,  exceeds  $100,000,  and/or (b) the estimated time to
restore  or repair  such  destruction  or  damage,  as  determined  by  Seller's
insurance  claim  adjuster,  exceeds ninety (90) days,  Purchaser shall have the
right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller within twenty (20)
days following the date upon which Purchaser receives Seller's written notice of
the destruction or damage.  If (i) such destruction or damage can be repaired or
restored for $100,000 or less, and can be repaired in less than ninety (90) days
or if no  tenant  has  terminated  its  lease  as a  result  of  the  damage  or
destruction  to the  property,  or (ii) the cost of such  repair or  restoration
shall exceed $100,000, and/or the time to complete the repair and restoration of
the Property  shall exceed ninety (90) days,  but Purchaser does not elect to so
terminate  this  Agreement  within said twenty (20) day period,  this  Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect and the parties  shall  proceed to Closing
without any  reduction  or  adjustment  in the Purchase  Price,  except that all
insurance  proceeds  will be  assigned  to  Purchaser  and  Seller  will  pay to
Purchaser any deductible under Seller's insurance policy.

                  9.2 Condemnation. In the event, at any time on or prior to the
Date of Closing, any action or proceeding is filed, under which the Property, or
any portion thereof,  may be taken pursuant to any law,  ordinance or regulation
or by condemnation  or the right of eminent  domain,  Seller shall promptly give
written  notice  thereof  (which notice shall  describe the type of action being
taken against the Property,  and which portions of the Property will be affected
thereby)  to  Purchaser.  Purchaser  shall  have  the  right to  terminate  this
Agreement by written notice to Seller within twenty (20) days following the date

                                       16
<PAGE>

upon  which  Purchaser  receives  Seller's  written  notice  of such  action  or
proceeding.  If Purchaser does not elect to so terminate  this Agreement  within
said twenty  (20) day  period,  this  Agreement  shall  remain in full force and
effect and the  parties  shall  proceed  to closing  without  any  reduction  or
adjustment in the Purchase Price, except that all condemnation  proceeds will be
assigned to Purchaser.

         10.      DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.

                  10.1 Purchaser  Default.  If Purchaser shall fail or refuse to
purchase the Property in violation of Purchaser's  obligations hereunder for any
reason  other than a default  by Seller  under  this  Agreement  or a failure of
condition  precedent to Closing  pursuant to Section 6, above, and provided that
Seller is then ready,  willing and able to proceed to Closing, has performed all
of its obligations  hereunder and all conditions  precedent to Closing hereunder
have been satisfied, Seller shall have as its sole remedy the right to terminate
this Agreement and retain the full amount of the Deposit and all interest earned
thereon.  Seller  and  Purchaser  acknowledge  and  agree  that  (a) it would be
extremely  difficult to accurately  determine the amount of damages  suffered by
Seller as a result of Purchaser's default hereunder; (b) the Deposit constitutes
a fair and  reasonable  amount to be received by Seller as agreed and liquidated
damages  for  Purchaser's  default  under  this  Agreement,  as  well as a fair,
reasonable and customary amount to be paid as liquidated  damages to a seller in
an arm's length  transaction of the type  contemplated  by this Agreement upon a
default by the  purchaser  thereunder;  and (c) receipt by Seller of the Deposit
upon  Purchaser's  default  hereunder  shall  not  constitute  a  penalty  or  a
forfeiture.

                  10.2 Seller  Default.  In the event Seller shall:  (a) fail to
sell,  transfer and assign the Property to Purchaser for any reason,  and/or (b)
fail to perform any other obligation of Seller hereunder,  and/or (c) breach any
warranty  made or granted by Seller  under this  Agreement  or any  document  or
instrument  given in connection  herewith,  and/or (d) have  misrepresented  any
fact, or any of the  representations  of Seller  contained  herein are not true,
accurate  or  complete,  Purchaser  shall be  entitled  to:  (i)  seek  specific
performance  of this  Agreement,  or (ii) declare this  Agreement to be null and
void and demand and receive the return of the Deposit,  and/or  (iii)  institute
any action available to Purchaser at law or equity to recover damages, including
without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Purchaser as a result
of such breach or misrepresentation by Seller.

                  10.3 Attorneys' Fees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, in the event that either Seller or Purchaser, as the case may
be,  shall bring a lawsuit  against  the other party for breach of such  party's
obligations  under this  Agreement,  the losing  party shall pay the  prevailing
party's  costs  and  expenses  incurred  in  connection  with  such  litigation,
including without limitation  reasonable attorneys' fees. The "prevailing party"
shall be determined by the court hearing such matter.

         11.  NOTICES.  Any notice  required or permitted to be given  hereunder
must be in writing and shall be deemed to be given when (a) hand  delivered,  or
(b) one (1)  business  day  after  pickup by Emery Air  Freight,  United  Parcel
Service  (Overnight) or Federal Express,  or another similar  overnight  express

shall be binding unless in writing and signed by both parties.

                  12.2  Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or its

In all other  cases,  any  proposed  assignment  shall be  subject  to the prior
