Property.

     WHEREAS, Escrow Agent is willing to accept the Escrow Deposit and hold and
disburse same in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below.

     NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises hereto, the
covenants and agreements hereinafter made, and for Ten Dollars ($10.00) in hand
paid to Escrow Agent, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

hereby acknowledges receipt of the sum of One Hundred Forty-Three Thousand Four
Hundred Seventeen and 00/100 Dollars ($143,417.00) as the total Escrow Deposit.
Escrow Agent hereby agrees to deposit the Escrow Deposit into an interest

institution, money market account, or other depository reasonably satisfactory
to Buyer, Seller and Escrow Agent with interest accruing for the benefit of
Seller. The federal taxpayer identification of Seller is as follows: 36-4293472.

     as the sum of One Hundred Thirty Seven Thousand, Seven Hundred Ninety Two
     and 00/100 Dollars ($137,792.00) is hereby referred to as the "LEASING
     DEPOSIT." The Leasing Deposit is applicable to 4,250 square feet of tenant
     space at the property commonly known as the "KDA Space" which is not
     occupied by a tenant as of the date hereof (the "VACANT SPACE") and is
     allocable to the Vacant Space as shown on EXHIBIT A. Buyer shall receive a

     the end of the current month. Thereafter, Buyer shall receive (and Escrow
     Agent is hereby authorized to pay to Buyer without further direction from
     Seller) monthly payments, in advance, for rent and reimbursable expenses,
     from the Leasing Deposit. The amount of the monthly disbursement to Buyer
     from the Leasing Deposit shall be as directed by Buyer by notice to Seller
     and Escrow Agent each month, according to the form of request attached as
     EXHIBIT C (which shall be equal to 1/12 of the Leasing Deposit prorated for
     any partial months) (the "LEASING DEPOSIT MONTHLY PAYMENT").

          (ii) Seller has previously delivered to Purchaser a partially executed
     lease agreement with Design Ventures, LLC ("DESIGN VENTURES") whereby
     Design Ventures will lease the Vacant Space. Seller will use reasonable
     efforts to cause Design Ventures to execute the Design Ventures lease
     within thirty (30) days following the date of this Agreement. At such time
     as Design Ventures has taken possession of the Vacant Space, and has
     commenced full payments of base rent and all other payments required by the
     Design Ventures lease, and has delivered to Seller and Buyer an estoppel
     certificate and rent commencement date agreement confirming the above
     requirements (collectively, the "LEASE-UP CRITERIA"), then (1) this Vacancy
     Escrow Agreement shall automatically terminate as of that date upon which
     the Lease-Up Criteria are satisfied, (2) Escrow Agent shall disburse to
     Buyer the lesser of (i) the entire balance of the remaining Leasing Deposit
     or (ii) Seller's proportionate share of the costs attributable to the
     installation of such proposed tenant, including legal costs, leasing
     commissions, tenant improvements and tenant allowances, which shall be
     calculated by multiplying such costs by a fraction, the numerator of which
     shall be the number of months remaining in the term of this Vacancy Escrow
     Agreement, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of months
     in the replacement tenant's lease term, and (3) the Escrow Agent shall
     disburse to Seller any balance of the remaining Leasing Deposit. The
     parties request for disbursement shall be according to the form attached as
     EXHIBIT C.

          B. REPAIRS DEPOSIT. That portion of the Escrow Deposit identified as
     the sum of Seven Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($5,625.00.00) is

     following repairs to the Property, within thirty (30) days following the
     date of this Agreement: (1) complete repairs to wooden fence serving as
     trash enclosure for Outlot #2; and (2) and complete masonry trash
     enclosures for Outlots #3 and #4 (collectively, the "REPAIR WORK"). Seller
     shall deliver to Escrow Agent and Buyer copies of all contracts, lien
     waivers and partial lien waivers (if applicable) from all contractors and
     subcontractors that have performed any of the Repair Work. Upon (i) written
     notice by Seller to Escrow Agent and Buyer ("REPAIR NOTICE") and Buyer's
     written approval within five (5) days after receipt thereof, which approval
     shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) the issuance by the Title Company
     of a date-down endorsement confirming no mechanics' liens exist against the
     Property as a result of said Repair Work, and (iii) delivery by Seller to
     Buyer and Escrow Agent of a letter from the Village of Gurnee indicating
     that the Property is in compliance with all applicable ordinances and that
     the items described in that letter from the Village of Gurnee, dated
     October 25, 2004 have been rectified, then Escrow Agent shall immediately
     release to Seller the entire balance of the Repairs Deposit Seller's Repair
     Notice shall be deemed approved by Buyer if Buyer does not give written
     approval or disapproval to Escrow Agent of same within such five (5) day
     period. If Buyer

                                        2
<Page>

     disapproves, Buyer shall advise Seller of specific reasons for any such
     disapproval. If the Repair Work is not completed within such thirty (30)
     day period, then Buyer shall be entitled (but not obligated) to perform the
     Repair Work, and the Escrow Agent shall disburse to Buyer the actual cost
     to Buyer to perform the Repair Work. Any amounts remaining in the Repair
     Escrow after completion of the Repair Work by Buyer shall then be disbursed
     to Seller. Buyer's request for disbursement shall be according to the form
     attached as EXHIBIT C.

     3. DISPUTES. In the event either party objects to the disbursement of the
Escrow Deposit as provided above, the Escrow Agent shall have the right, at its
option, either (a) to hold the Escrow Deposit in escrow pending resolution of
such objection by mutual agreement of the parties or by judicial resolution of

jurisdiction over such objection. After any disbursement of the Escrow Deposit
under the terms of this Escrow Agreement, Escrow Agent's duties and obligations
hereunder as to that disbursement shall cease. In the event of any dispute
