      Price”).  The Purchase Price, as the same may be adjusted
      pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and all other amounts payable by
      Purchaser to Seller at the Closing shall be paid to Seller, at the Closing
      by
      wire transfer of immediately available federal funds transferred to one or
      more
      bank accounts designated by Seller.

    ADJUSTMENTS

    Section
      4.1.  Adjustments

     

    .
      The following are to be adjusted and prorated between Seller and
      Purchaser as of 11:59 P.M. on the day preceding the Closing Date, based upon
      a
      365-day year, and the net amount thereof shall be, if such net amount is in
      Seller’s favor, added to the Purchase Price at the Closing, or, if such net
      amount is in Purchaser’s favor, credited against the Purchase Price at the
      Closing:

     

    (a)  Taxes
      and Assessments.  General property taxes
      (state, county, municipal, school and fire district) shall be adjusted and
      prorated on the basis of the fiscal year for which assessed.  If the
      Closing shall occur before the tax rate or assessed valuation is fixed for
      the
      Premises, the apportionment of real estate taxes for the Premises shall be
      upon
      the basis of the tax rate for the preceding year applied to the most recently
      applicable assessed valuation of the Premises, subject to further and final
      adjustment when the tax rate and/or assessed valuation for the Premises is
      fixed
      for the year in which the Closing occurs.  In the event that the
      Premises or any part thereof shall be or shall have been affected by any special
      assessment or assessments, whether or not the same become payable in annual
      installments, Seller shall, at the Closing, be responsible for the entire amount
      of any such assessments.

     

    (b)  Water
      Charges.  Water rates, water meter charges
      and sewer rents (the “Water Charges”), if any, shall be
      adjusted and prorated on the basis of the fiscal period for which
      assessed.  Seller shall endeavor to have the appropriate agencies read
      the meters for the Water Charges (if applicable) on or prior to the Closing
      Date, but in no event prior to the date which is thirty (30) days prior to
      the
      Closing Date.  Seller shall be responsible for all Water Charges based
      on such final meter readings through the day preceding the Closing Date (using
      the per diem rate for the period between the reading date and the day preceding
      the Closing Date), and Purchaser shall be responsible for all Water Charges
      thereafter.  If such final readings are not obtainable, then, until
      such time as the final readings are obtained, all Water Charges for which final
      readings were not obtained shall be pro rated as of the Closing Date based
      upon
      the per diem rate obtained by using the last period and bills for such Water
      Charges that are available.  Upon the taking of a subsequent actual
      final reading after Closing, such apportionment shall be adjusted to reflect
      the
      actual per diem rate for the billing period in which the Closing Date falls,
      and
      Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall promptly deliver to the other
      the
      amount determined to be due upon such adjustment.  Unmetered Water
      Charges shall be apportioned on the basis of the charges therefor for the same
      period of the preceding calendar year, but applying the current rate
      thereto.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no adjustment
      of Water Charges which are payable directly by Tenants or other occupants of
      the
      Premises.

     

    (c)  Permits,
      Licenses.  Prepaid license and permit fees in connection with
      permits and licenses assigned to Purchaser.

     

    (d)  Rent.                      All
      Rent paid pursuant to the Leases for the month or other relevant period in
      which
      the Closing occurs shall be adjusted at Closing.  No adjustment at
      Closing shall be made for delinquent rent which shall be handled under the
      provisions below.  Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for all
      Rent paid to Seller prior to the Closing for periods after the month in which
      the Closing occurs.

     

    (i)  If,
      as of
      the Closing Date, there are any past due Fixed Rent owing by any Tenant,
      Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to collect the
      same.  Purchaser shall not be obligated to institute legal actions or
      proceedings against any Tenant to collect such past due Fixed Rent, but the
      Seller hereby waives any and all right to institute any legal actions or
      proceedings against such Tenant including any right to seek the eviction of
      such
      Tenant or the termination of a Lease.

     

    (ii)  Any
      Fixed
      Rent received (net of Purchaser’s reasonable costs of collection) after the
      Closing from any Tenant which owes Fixed Rent for the period prior to the
      Closing shall be applied in the following order of
      priority:  (A) first, to Purchaser, until Fixed Rent for all
      current periods is paid in full, and (D) second, after Fixed Rent then due
      and payable for all post Closing periods are paid in full, to the Seller in
      payment of Fixed Rent for periods prior to the month immediately preceding
      the
      month in which the Closing occurs.

     

    (iii)  To
      the
      extent that any portion of the Overage Rent is required to be paid monthly
      or on
      another periodic basis, by Tenants on account of estimated amounts for the
      current period, and at the end of each calendar year (or, if applicable, at
      the
      end of each lease year or tax year, as the case may be), such estimated amounts
      are to be recalculated based upon the actual expenses, taxes and other relevant
      factors for that calendar (lease or tax) year, with the appropriate adjustments
      being made with such Tenants, then such portion of the Overage Rent paid shall
      be prorated between Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand,
      at the Closing, based on such estimated payments (i.e., with Seller
      entitled to retain all monthly and other periodic installments of such amounts
      paid with respect to periods prior to the calendar month or other relevant
      period in which the Closing Date occurs, Seller to pay to Purchaser at the
      Closing all monthly or other relevant period installments of such amounts paid
      with respect to periods following the calendar month or other relevant period
      in
      which the Closing occurs and Seller and Purchaser shall apportion all monthly
      installments of such amounts with respect to the calendar month in which the
      Closing occurs) and at the time(s) of final calculation and collection from
      (or
      refund to) Tenants of the amounts in reconciliation of actual Overage Rent
      for a
      period for which estimated amounts have been prorated, there shall be a
      reproration between Seller (on the one hand) and Purchaser (on the other hand),
      based upon their respective actual expenses, taxes and other relevant factors
      for that calendar (lease or tax) year, with the net credit resulting from such
      reproration being payable to the appropriate party. 

     

    (iv)  As
      to
      Overage Rent in respect of an accounting period that shall have expired prior
      to
      the Closing, but which shall be paid after the Closing, Purchaser agrees that
      it
      will pay the entire amount over to the Seller upon receipt thereof, less
      Purchaser’s reasonable costs of collection reasonably allocable
      thereto.  Purchaser agrees that it shall:  (a) promptly
      render bills for any Overage Rent in respect of an accounting period that shall
      have expired prior to Closing but which shall be payable after the Closing,
      (b) bill Tenants who owe such Overage Rent attributable to an accounting
      period that shall have expired prior to the Closing, on a monthly basis for
      a
      period of six consecutive months, and (c) use commercially reasonable
      efforts in the collection of Overage Rent (Seller acknowledges that, as of
      the
      date hereof, Seller knows of no such past due Overage Rent); provided,
however, that Purchaser shall have no obligation to commence any legal
      actions or proceedings to collect any such Overage
      Rent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser shall be unable to
      collect such Overage Rent despite using its commercially reasonable efforts
      to
      do so, Seller shall have the right to pursue Tenants to collect such
      delinquencies (including the prosecution of one or more lawsuits);
provided, however, (i) Seller shall not be entitled to evict (by
      summary proceedings or otherwise) any such Tenant or to terminate such Tenant’s
      Lease, (ii) Seller shall not be entitled to institute any legal actions or
      proceedings against any such Tenant unless the amounts of the delinquency in
      controversy, in the aggregate, are equal to or greater than $100,000 and unless
      Seller shall have first given Purchaser thirty (30) days’ prior written notice
      of its intent to file such legal action or proceeding against the Tenant, (iii)
      Seller shall institute such legal actions or proceedings within one (1) year
      following the Closing, except that no such time limit shall apply to any actions
      or proceedings arising out of any audit of any Overage Rent by Shook Hardy,
      and
      (iv) Purchaser shall not be obligated hereunder to participate in or cooperate
      with Seller as to such suit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
      no
      provision of this Agreement shall be construed as preventing or restricting
      Seller from filing a counterclaim against a Tenant in any suit or other
      proceeding brought by such Tenant against Seller or any of its
      affiliates.  Seller shall furnish to Purchaser all information
      relating to the period prior to the Closing that is reasonably necessary for
      the
      billing of Overage Rent.  Purchaser shall deliver to Seller,
      concurrently with the delivery to Tenants, copies of all statements relating
      to
      Overage Rent for periods prior to the Closing.

     

    (v)  Any
      Rent
      received directly or indirectly by Seller or Purchaser following the Closing
      and
      which are the property of the other party, shall be deemed held in trust and
      shall be paid to the other party within five (5) Business Days following receipt
      thereof.  Upon either party’s request from time to time, the other
      party shall provide the requesting party with an accounting (certified by the
      applicable party as being true and correct) of all Rent received by it following
      Closing. Until such time as all amounts required to be paid to Seller by
      Purchaser pursuant to the aforesaid provisions shall have been paid in full,
      Seller may from time to time, but not more frequently than once each calendar
      month, request that Purchaser furnish Seller with a reasonably detailed
      accounting of the collection of all Rent.  Within ten (10) Business
      Days of its receipt of such request, Purchaser shall furnish Seller with such
      accounting.  Seller shall have the right from time to time following
      the Closing, on prior notice to Purchaser, to review Purchaser’s records with
      respect to the Premises to ascertain the accuracy of such
      accountings.

     

    (e)  Electricity
      and other Utilities.  Seller shall use reasonable efforts to
      obtain readings of meters measuring electricity, steam, gas and other utility
      consumption at the Premises for all periods through (and including) the date
      preceding the Closing Date, but in no event prior to the date which is thirty
      (30) days prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall pay, and be responsible for,
      all bills rendered on the basis of such readings through the Closing Date (using
      the per diem rate for the period between the reading of the meter and the day
      preceding the Closing Date).  If such readings are not obtained for
      any metered utility, then, at the Closing, apportionment shall be made on the
      basis of the most recent period for which such readings are
      available.  Upon the taking of subsequent actual readings, there shall
      be a recalculation of the applicable utility charges, and Seller or Purchaser,
      as the case may be, shall promptly remit to the other party any amounts to
      which
      such party shall be entitled by reason of such recalculation (with Seller being
      obligated to pay all such utility charges pertaining to the period prior to
      the
      Closing, and Purchaser being obligated to pay all such utility charges
      pertaining to the period thereafter).  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      there shall be no adjustment of electric charges and other utility charges
      which
      are payable by Tenants directly to the relevant utility company.

     

    (f)  Unused
      Allowance Balance.  Seller shall pay to Purchaser the Unused
      Allowance Balance on the Closing Date.  In no event shall Seller bear
      any responsibility for the allowances described in Section 2.02, 2.03 or 2.04
      of
      the Shook Hardy Lease (the same being the sole responsibility of Purchaser
      following the Closing).

     

    (g)  Other.   At
      Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit in the amount of $40,000 for the
      replacements of certain locks at the Premises and a credit in the amount of
      $22,000 for the purchase of blinds for the 6th and 7th
      Floors.  Seller shall have no obligation with regard to the
      performance of such work following the Closing nor any costs associated
      therewith (Purchaser being responsible for the same).  Any other item
      which, under the terms of this Agreement, is to be apportioned at
      Closing.

     

    Section
      4.2.  Security
      Deposits

     

    .  Seller
      shall, at Seller’s cost and expense (a) assign to Purchaser at the Closing the
      Shook Letter of Credit, then held by Seller as a security deposit under the
      Shook Hardy Lease together with all applicable transfer documentation as may
      be
      required by the issuer thereof in order to transfer the same, (b) execute and
      deliver such other instruments as the issuers of such letters of credit shall
      reasonably require to transfer or assign such letters of credit to Purchaser,
      and (c) reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to change the named beneficiary
      under such letters of credit to Purchaser; provided, however, Purchaser shall
      bear any transfer fees that may be levied in connection with any assignment
      and
      transfer of the Shook Letter of Credit to the extent Shook Hardy under the
      Shook
      Hardy Lease is not obligated to pay such transfer fee.

     

    Section
      4.3.  Post
      Closing Adjustments; Survival

     

    .  If
      any items to be adjusted as set forth in this Article IV are not
      determinable at the Closing or estimates therefor are incorrect, the adjustment
      shall be made subsequent to the Closing when the charge is determined. Any
      errors or omissions in computing adjustments at the Closing shall be promptly
      corrected, provided that the party seeking to correct such error or omission
      shall have notified the other party of such error or omission on or prior to
      the
      date that is one (1) year following the Closing Date as to taxes and one hundred
      eighty (180) days following the Closing Date as to other items. The provisions
      of this Article IV shall survive the Closing.

    TITLE
      AND PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS

    Section
      5.1.  Permitted
      Exceptions

     

    .  Seller
      agrees to sell the Premises to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase
      the
      Premises from Seller, subject only to: (a) those matters set forth on Exhibit
      B annexed hereto, (b) such Title Exceptions as Title Insurer shall be
      willing to, at its regular rates, omit as exceptions to coverage, and (c) the
      exceptions and matters subject to which Purchaser has agreed to accept title
      to
      the Premises specifically set forth in this Agreement (including the Easement
      Agreement and all Existing Leases and any other Lease which Seller is permitted
      to enter into pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) (the liens, claims,
      encumbrances, exceptions and matters set forth in subclauses (a) through (c)
      above with respect to the Premises being collectively referred to as the
“Permitted Exceptions”).

     

    Section
      5.2.  Title
      Report

     

    .
      Purchaser has received and reviewed a: (i) copy of that certain title commitment
      dated July 13, 2007 issued by the Title Insurer and bearing the commitment
      number C0707317 (the “Title Report”).  Seller also
      has delivered to Purchaser a copy of the most recent survey of the Premises
      in
      Seller’s possession (“Survey”).  Prior to the
      Contract Date, Purchaser shall have reviewed title to the Premises as described
      by the Title Report and Survey and notified Seller of any objections Purchaser
      has to the Title Report and Survey.  Purchaser may, at its cost and
      expense, revise, modify and recertify the Survey. Purchaser shall: (a) instruct
      the Title Insurer, in writing, to furnish copies of all title continuations
      to
      Seller’s counsel at the address set forth in Section 17.1, and (b) within
      five (5) Business Days after issuance of any such continuation, give notice
      to
      Seller specifying all new Title Exceptions set forth in such continuation which
      Purchaser claims are not Permitted Exceptions.

     

    Section
      5.3.  Discharge
      of Title Exceptions at Closing

     

    .  If,
      at the Closing, there are any Title Exceptions which are not Permitted
      Exceptions for the Premises and which Seller is obligated by this Agreement
      or
      elects to pay and discharge, Seller may use any portion of the Purchase Price
      or
      any other sum to discharge the same, provided that Seller either shall have
      delivered to Purchaser at the Closing instruments in recordable form sufficient
      to discharge such Title Exceptions of record, together with the cost of any
      applicable recording or filing fees.  The existence of any such liens
      or encumbrances shall not be deemed objections to title prior to Closing if
      Seller shall comply with the foregoing requirements at or before
      Closing.  Any unpaid liens for taxes, Water Charges and assessments
      applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date shall not be objections
      to
      title, but the amount thereof plus any interest and penalties thereon shall
      be
      deducted from the Purchase Price, subject to the provisions for apportionment
      of
      taxes, Water Charges, rents and assessments contained in Article IV of
      this Agreement.

     

    Section
      5.4.  Inability
      to Convey

     

    .                      Except
      as expressly set forth in this Article V, nothing contained in this
      Agreement shall be deemed to require Seller to take or bring any action or
      proceeding or any other steps to remove any Title Exception or to expend any
      moneys therefor, nor shall Purchaser have any right of action against Seller,
      at
      law or in equity, for Seller’s inability to convey title in accordance with the
      terms of this Agreement.

     

    Section
      5.5.  Rights
      in Respect of Inability to Convey

     

    .

     

    (a)           In
      the event that Seller, after complying with its obligations hereunder (including
      Section 5.6 and Section 5.7) shall be unable to convey title to
      the Premises as provided in this Article V, and Purchaser has not, prior
      to the Scheduled Closing Date (as it may have been adjourned in accordance
      with
      this Agreement), given notice to Seller that Purchaser waives objection to
      each
      Title Exception which is not a Permitted Exception for the Premises and agrees
      to close this transaction without abatement of any portion of the Purchase
      Price, credit or allowance of any kind (other than a credit in the amount of
      the
      unused portion of the Liquidated Sum Amount, if any, that the Purchaser may
      be
      entitled to under Section 5.7) or any claim or right of action against
      Seller for damages or otherwise relating to same, Seller shall have the right,
      at Seller’s sole election, to either (1) take such action as Seller shall deem
      advisable to discharge each such Title Exception which is not a Permitted
      Exception, including, without limitation, by satisfying the requirements of
      the
      Title Insurer sufficient to cause the Title Insurer to insure over any Mechanics
      Lien Title Exception at Closing, or (2) terminate this Agreement.  In
      the event Seller shall elect to take action to so discharge each such Title
      Exception which is not a Permitted Exception, Seller shall be entitled to one
      or
      more adjournments of the Scheduled Closing Date for a period reasonably
      necessary to so discharge the same, not to exceed thirty (30) days in the
      aggregate (inclusive of any adjournments made by Seller pursuant to Section
      5.6 and Section 5.7), and the Closing shall be adjourned to a date
      specified by Seller not beyond such thirty (30) day period.  If, for
      any reason whatsoever, Seller shall not have succeeded in so discharging each
      such Title Exception at the expiration of such adjournment(s) and if Purchaser
      has not, prior to the expiration of the last of such adjournments, given notice
      to Seller that Purchaser waives objection to each such Title Exception and
      agrees to close this transaction without abatement of any portion of the
      Purchase Price, credit or allowance of any kind (other than a credit in the
      amount of the unused portion of the Liquidated Sum Amount, if any, that the
      Purchaser may be entitled to under Section 5.7) or any claim or right of
      action against Seller for damages or otherwise relating to the same, this
      Agreement shall be deemed to be terminated as of the last date to which the
      Scheduled Closing Date was adjourned by Seller pursuant to this Article
      V. Upon any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section
      5.5, then (I) the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser and (II) neither
      party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than those
      which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.  No action
      taken by Seller to discharge, or attempt to discharge, any purported Title
      Exception shall be an admission that any such purported Title Exception is
      not a
      Permitted Exception.  The provisions of this Section 5.5 shall
      be subject to Seller’s and Purchaser’s rights and obligations with respect to
      Voluntary Title Exceptions and Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions as set forth
      in
Section 5.6 and Section 5.7, respectively.

     

    (b)           Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained herein, if any Title Exception which is
      not a
      Permitted Exception can be removed by the delivery of an affidavit of Seller,
      Seller shall deliver such affidavit to Purchaser and the Title Insurer at the
      Closing; provided that such affidavit: (i) does not increase the obligations
      of
      Seller under this Agreement (other than in a deminimis manner), (ii) does not
      result in any costs to Seller (other than deminimis costs) or (iii) would not
      be
      likely to result in any liability to Seller (other than in a deminimis
      manner).

     

    Section
      5.6.  Voluntary
      Title Exceptions

     

    (a)  .  If,
      from time to time prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall receive written
      notification (which for purposes of this Article V shall include any
      information in any title report and in any title continuation provided to
      Purchaser) of any Voluntary Title Exceptions, then Purchaser shall promptly
      notify Seller thereof, which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the
      Voluntary Title Exceptions(s).  Seller shall discharge, in the manner
      set forth in Section 5.5, all Voluntary Title Exceptions regardless of
      cost on or prior to Closing.  Seller shall be entitled to one or more
      adjournments of the Scheduled Closing Date of such duration as shall be
      reasonably necessary to discharge the same, not to exceed thirty (30) days
      in
      the aggregate (inclusive of any adjournments made by Seller pursuant to
Section 5.5 and Section 5.7) to so discharge Voluntary Title
      Exceptions.  If Seller shall fail to so discharge all Voluntary Title
      Exceptions on or prior to Closing, then Purchaser shall have the right, as
      and
      for its sole and exclusive remedy, to elect one of the following two
      alternatives:

     

    (i)           Purchaser
      may elect to close otherwise in accordance with this Agreement, notwithstanding
      the existence of such Voluntary Title Exceptions.  If Purchaser so
      elects, then (1) Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived such Voluntary Title
      Exceptions that were not discharged on or prior to the Closing and the same
      shall not be grounds for an objection to title, (2) Purchaser shall not have
      any
      right of action against Seller for or in connection with such undischarged
      Voluntary Title Exceptions, at law or in equity and (3) Purchaser shall receive
      a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the aggregate amount
      needed to discharge and remove of record those undischarged Voluntary Title
      Exceptions that can be discharged solely by the payment of a liquidated sum
      of
      money and Seller shall, if it is the appropriate party, execute and deliver
      all
      documents necessary to discharge and remove same of record; or

     

    (ii)           Purchaser,
      by written notice given to Seller on or prior to the Scheduled Closing Date
      (as
      so adjourned), may elect to terminate this Agreement; or

     

    (iii)           Purchaser
      may seek specific performance of Seller’s obligation to remove Voluntary Title
      Exceptions.

     

    If
      Purchaser shall fail to notify Seller of such election on or prior to the
      Scheduled Closing Date (as so adjourned), then Purchaser shall irrevocably
      be
      deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement as provided in clause
      (ii).  If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to clause (ii), then
      (I) the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser and (II) Purchaser shall have
      such rights and remedies against Seller as may be available under equity and/or
      applicable law, provided that Seller shall not be liable for consequential
      damages or for punitive damages.

     

    Section
      5.7.  Liquidated
      Sum Title Exceptions

     

    .  On
      or prior to Closing, Seller shall discharge all Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions;
      provided, however, that Seller’s obligations under this Section
      5.7 shall be subject to and limited by the following
      provisions:

     

    (a)  Notwithstanding
      the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.7, Seller shall have no
      obligation to expend more than the Liquidated Sum Amount in the aggregate in
      order to cause all Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions to be
      discharged.  Seller shall be entitled to one or more adjournments of
      the Scheduled Closing Date not to exceed thirty (30) days in the aggregate
      (inclusive of any adjournments made by Seller pursuant to Section 5.5 and
Section 5.6 above) to discharge Liquidated Sum Title
      Exceptions.

     

    (b)  If,
      from
      time to time and at any time at or prior to the Closing, Seller shall determine,
      in its good faith judgment, that the sum of (i) the cost to discharge all then
      undischarged Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions, plus (ii) all actual amounts
      expended by Seller on or prior to such date (but after the date of this
      Agreement) to discharge any Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions shall exceed the
      Liquidated Sum Amount, then Seller may (but shall not be obligated to) notify
      Purchaser thereof (the “Seller Liquidated Sum Title Exception
      Notice”), which notice shall describe in reasonable detail (x) the
      Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions that are then in existence and have not been
      discharged and (y) the actual amounts expended by Seller on or prior to such
      date (but after the date of this Agreement) to discharge any Liquidated Sum
      Title Exceptions, together with documentation reasonably evidencing the
      same.  If Seller shall give a Seller Liquidated Sum Title Exception
      Notice to Purchaser within five (5) days of the Scheduled Closing Date, then
      Purchaser shall have the right, as and for its sole and exclusive remedy, to
      elect one of the following two alternatives:

     

    (i)  Purchaser
      may elect to close otherwise in accordance with this Agreement, notwithstanding
      the existence of such Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions.  If Purchaser
      so elects, then, subject to Purchaser’s rights with respect to any Voluntary
      Title Exceptions as set forth in Section 5.6 above, (1) Purchaser shall
      be deemed to have waived all Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions that were not
      discharged on or prior to the Closing and the same shall not be grounds for
      an
      objection to title, (2) Purchaser shall not have any right of action against
      Seller for or in connection with such undischarged Title Exceptions, at law
      or
      in equity, and (3) Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price
      in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the aggregate amount needed to discharge
      and remove of record such undischarged Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions and
      (y)
      the excess of the Liquidated Sum Amount over the amounts expended by Seller
      on
      or prior to the Closing Date (but after the date of this Agreement) to discharge
      any Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions; or

     

    (ii)  Purchaser,
      by written notice given to Seller on or prior to the Scheduled Closing Date
      (as
      so adjourned), may elect to terminate this Agreement.  If Purchaser
      shall fail to notify Seller of such election on or prior to the Scheduled
      Closing Date (as so adjourned), then Purchaser shall irrevocably be deemed
      to
      have elected to terminate this Agreement as provided in this clause (ii) of
      this
Section 5.7(b).  If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to
      this clause (ii), then (I) the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser and (II)
      neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other
      than
      those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

     

    Section
      5.8.  Purchaser’s
      Right to Accept Title

     

    .  Notwithstanding
      the foregoing provisions of this Article V, Purchaser may, by notice
      given to Seller at any time prior to the Scheduled Closing Date (as it may
      have
      been adjourned by Seller pursuant to this Article V), elect by written
      notice to Seller, to waive any or all exceptions which are not Permitted
      Exceptions.  In such event, this Agreement shall remain in effect and
      the parties shall proceed to Closing but, except to the extent set forth in
      Section 5.6 and Section 5.7, Purchaser shall not be entitled to
      any abatement, credit or allowance of any kind or any claim or right of action
      against Seller for damages or otherwise by reason of the existence of any Title
      Exceptions which are not Permitted Exceptions; provided that a waiver of any
      exceptions which are not Permitted Exceptions prior to the Scheduled Closing
      Date shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other exceptions that are not
      Permitted Exceptions and are first discovered by Purchaser following the
      notice.

    CONDITION
      OF PROPERTY; NO DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD

    Section
      6.1.  Condition
      of Premises

     

    .  (a)
      Purchaser is a sophisticated investor and its valuation of, and decision to
      purchase, the Premises is based upon its own independent expert evaluations
      of
      such facts and materials deemed relevant by Purchaser and its agents. Other
      than
      the representations and warranties of Seller specifically set forth herein
      or in
      the Closing documents executed and delivered by Seller at the Closing pursuant
      to Article VIII hereof, Purchaser has not relied in entering into this
      Agreement upon any oral or written information from Seller, in any capacity,
      or
      any of its employees, affiliates, agents, consultants, advisors or
      representatives, including any appraisals, projections or evaluations of credit
      quality prepared by Seller or any of its employees, affiliates, agents,
      consultants, advisors or representatives.  Purchaser further
      acknowledges that no employee, agent, consultant, advisor or representative
      of
      Seller has been authorized to make, and that Purchaser has not relied upon,
      any
      statements or representations other than those specifically contained in this
      Agreement.  WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING,
      PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT EXCEPT AS MAY BE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH
      IN
      THIS AGREEMENT, PURCHASER IS PURCHASING THE PREMISES “AS IS” AND “WHERE IS”
“WITH ALL FAULTS” ON THE CLOSING DATE, AND, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN
      THIS AGREEMENT OR IN SAID CLOSING DOCUMENTS, SELLER IS MAKING NO REPRESENTATION
      OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND PURCHASER HAS NOT RELIED ON ANY
      REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE PREMISES,
      INCLUDING ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO (A) THE BUSINESS OR
      FINANCIAL CONDITION OF ANY TENANT OF THE PREMISES, (B) THE PHYSICAL CONDITION
      OF
      ANY IMPROVEMENT OR ANY OTHER PROPERTY COMPRISING ALL OR A PART OF THE PREMISES,
      OR ITS FITNESS, MERCHANTABILITY OR SUITABILITY FOR ANY USE OR PURPOSE, (C)
      THE
      LEASES, RENTS, INCOME OR EXPENSES OF THE PREMISES, (D) THE COMPLIANCE OR
      NON-COMPLIANCE WITH ANY LAWS, CODES, ORDINANCES, RULES OR REGULATIONS OF ANY
      GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY AND ANY VIOLATIONS THEREOF, (E) THE PRESENCE OF ANY
      HAZARDOUS OR TOXIC SUBSTANCES, LEAD PAINT OR ASBESTOS AT THE PREMISES, OR (F)
      THE CURRENT OR FUTURE USE OF THE PREMISES, INCLUDING THE PREMISES’ USE FOR
      COMMERCIAL, RETAIL, INDUSTRIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES.  Seller is
      not liable or bound in any manner by any verbal or written statements,
      representations, real estate brokers’ “set-ups”, offering memorandum or
      information pertaining to the Premises furnished by any real estate broker,
      advisor, consultant, agent, employee, representative or other
      Person.

     

    (b)           Except
      as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement, in addition to, and not by
      way
      of limitation of Section 6.1(a), Purchaser shall be required to accept
      the Premises subject to all (i) violations of law, notes or notices of
      violations of law or governmental ordinances, orders or requirements noted
      in or
      issued by any Governmental Authority, and (ii) liens which may attach pursuant
      to any of the foregoing, in each case whether such violations, notes, notices,
      orders, requirements or liens, or the conditions giving rise thereto, existed
      or
      were noted or issued prior to the date of this contract, or now or hereafter
      exist or come into being.  Except as may otherwise be provided in this
      Agreement, any such violations, notes, notices, orders, requirements or liens
      shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions and shall be the sole responsibility of
      Purchaser. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall not
      be
      required to remove or comply with any violations, notes, notices, orders,
      requirements or liens a Tenant is required to remove or comply with pursuant
      to
      the terms of its Lease, and such violations, notes, notices, orders,
      requirements or liens shall not be deemed to be an objection to
      title.  Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement,
      Purchaser shall accept the Premises subject to all such violations, notes,
      notices, orders, requirements or liens without abatement against the Purchase
      Price, credit or allowance of any kind or any claim or right of action against
      Seller for damages or otherwise, and Seller shall have no obligation to remove,
      comply with, cure, discharge or otherwise deal with such violations, notes,
      notices, orders, requirements or liens, or the conditions giving rise
      thereto.

     

    (c)           Except
      for a breach of a representation and warranty in Section 10.2(f)
      [Violations] herein, Purchaser expressly waives, releases and discharges Seller,
      and any entity or person which at any time directly or indirectly controlled
      or
      was controlled by Seller, from any and all suits, claims, demands, cause of
      action, damages (including, but not limited to, consequential damages), losses,
      costs, and expenses of any kind, whether known or unknown, relating to or

      including, without limitation, the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response,
      Compensation and Liability Act, and the federal Resource Conservation and
      Recovery Act; (2) the Release of any Hazardous Materials; and (3) any
      environmental conditions whatsoever in, on, above, beneath, at, to, under or
      in
      the vicinity of the Premises.  As used herein, the term
“Environmental Laws” shall mean: all federal, state, and local

      and
      any Federal, state or local transfer of ownership notification or approval
      statutes.  As used herein, the term “Hazardous
      Materials” shall mean those substances included within the definitions
      of any one or more of the terms “hazardous materials,” “hazardous wastes,”
“hazardous substances,” “industrial wastes,” and “toxic pollutants,” as such
      terms are defined under the Environmental Laws, or any other substance regulated

      the foregoing, the waivers, releases and other matters set forth in this
Section 6.1 of this Agreement shall not apply to any claims of
      contribution by Purchaser against Seller with respect to claims made by third
      parties (including Governmental Authorities) against Purchaser or its

      in, on, under, above, adjacent to or otherwise affecting the Premises prior
      to
      Closing, for a period of one (1) year following the Closing (after the
      expiration of said one-year period, this subsection (d) shall be of no further
      force or effect, except as to claims of contribution filed by Purchaser against

      with
      any broker or other finder or intermediary with respect to the transactions
      contemplated hereby other than CB Richard Ellis, Inc., a Delaware corporation
      (the “Broker”).  In the event that any claim shall be
      made for a broker’s commission, finder’s fee or otherwise on account of the
      breach of the representations and warranties set forth in the preceding
      sentence, upon prompt notice of any such claim from the party against whom
      such
      claim is asserted, the party whose acts caused or resulted in the claim, shall
      indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless from any and all costs, claims,
      damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising
      therefrom or in connection therewith.  Seller shall pay the
      commissions payable to Broker pursuant to separate written
      agreement.  The provisions of this Article XIV shall survive
      the Closing and any termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

    CASUALTY
      AND CONDEMNATION

    Section
      15.1.  Casualty

     

    .

     

    (a)           For
      purposes of this Article XV, “Major Casualty” means,
      with respect to the Improvements at the Premises, a fire in or other casualty
      to
      such Improvements which causes damage or injury to such Improvements that either
      (i) would cost Ten Million and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00) or more to repair
      or (ii) would permit Shook Hardy to exercise its termination right under Article
      7 of the Shook Hardy Lease by reason thereof (unless Shook Hardy waives such
      termination right with regard to any such fire or other casualty).

     

    (b)           If,
      between the Contract Date and the Closing, there shall occur a fire or other
      casualty affecting the Improvements which is not a Major Casualty, then neither
      Seller nor Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and
      Purchaser shall purchase the Premises in its damaged condition with any repairs
      which may have been made thereto by Seller without reduction of or offset
      against the Purchase Price or any other claim against Seller.  Seller
      shall pay to Purchaser all insurance proceeds received by Seller in connection
      with such casualty (other than business interruption or rent loss insurance
      for
      the period prior to the Closing) and shall assign to Purchaser Seller’s right,
      if any, to receive any insurance proceeds payable to Seller as a result of
      such
      fire or other casualty, provided, however, that Seller shall be
      entitled to retain (to the extent theretofore paid to Seller), and shall not
      be
      obligated to assign the right to receive (to the extent not theretofore paid
      to
      Seller), an amount of such insurance proceeds equal to Seller’s expenses, if
      any, incurred in collecting such proceeds and undertaking any repairs of the
      Improvements.  Additionally, at the Closing, Seller shall pay to
      Purchaser the deductible amount under Seller’s insurance policy less any costs
      incurred for any repair or restoration of the Improvements not covered by
      insurance proceeds and less any portion of the deductible which can be charged
      to Shook Hardy under the Shook Hardy Lease.

    

    (c)           If,
      between the Contract Date and the Closing, there shall occur a fire or other
      casualty affecting the Improvements which is a Major Casualty, then Purchaser
      shall have the option, to be exercised by notice given to Seller within fifteen
      (15) days after the date of such casualty, to terminate this
      Agreement.  If this Agreement shall be so terminated, then (i)
      Purchaser shall be entitled to the return of the Deposit and (ii) neither party
      hereto shall have any further obligations or liabilities to the other under
      this
      Agreement, except for those which expressly survive the termination of this
      Agreement.  If Purchaser shall not so elect to terminate this
      Agreement as provided in this subclause (c), then this Agreement shall remain
      in
      full force and effect and the provisions of Section 15.1(b) above shall
      apply to such damage and any insurance proceeds payable in connection
      therewith.

     

    (d)           In
      no event shall Seller have any obligation to repair any damage or destruction
      to
      the Improvements, but Seller shall have the right to do so and to utilize
      insurance proceeds for such purpose.

     

    (e)           Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, if the sum of the deductible amounts to be credited to Purchaser
      and the insurance proceeds payable in connection with such casualty are not
      sufficient to restore such damage, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate
      this Agreement and receive a return of the Deposit, unless Seller (in its
      discretion) agrees to credit the difference to Purchaser at Closing in which
      event Purchaser shall not have such right to terminate.

     

    (f)           If
      Seller shall receive any insurance proceeds to which Purchaser is entitled
      under
Section 15.1(b) above, Seller shall pay the same to Purchaser
      promptly.  The provisions of this Section 15.1(f) shall survive
      the Closing.

     

    Section
      15.2.  Condemnation

     

    .  If,
      between the Contract Date and the
      Closing, any condemnation or eminent domain proceedings are initiated, then
      Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of
      its
      election to Seller within fifteen (15) days after receiving notice of such
      prospective taking.  If Purchaser shall so elect to terminate this
      Agreement, then (i) Purchaser shall be entitled to the return of the Deposit,
      and (ii) neither party hereto shall have any further obligations or liabilities
      to the other under this Agreement, except for those which expressly survive
      the
      termination of this Agreement.  If Purchaser shall not so elect to
      terminate this Agreement, then the parties hereto shall proceed to the Closing
      without reduction of or offset against the Purchase Price and Purchaser shall
      have no other claim against Seller.  In such event, all of Seller’s
      right, title and interest in and to any condemnation proceeds paid or payable
      in
      connection therewith shall be assigned to Purchaser.  In no event
      shall Seller have any obligation to repair or restore the Premises or any
      portion thereof.

    DEFAULT;
      REMEDIES; SURVIVAL

    Section
      16.1.  Purchaser’s
      Default On or Before Closing

     

    .    If
      Purchaser fails to consummate the purchase of the Premises pursuant to this
      Agreement for any reason except failure by Seller to perform hereunder or
      failure of a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligations hereunder (except in
      the event the condition was not satisfied by reason of a default by Purchaser),
      then, Seller, as its sole and exclusive remedy therefor, may terminate this
      Agreement by written notice to Purchaser, whereupon, as liquidated damages
      on
      account thereof, Seller shall be entitled to retain the Deposit as Purchaser’s
      sole liability and Seller’s exclusive remedy hereunder. Upon any such
      termination of this Agreement, neither party shall have any further rights
      or
      obligations hereunder other than those which expressly survive the termination
      of this Agreement.   Seller and Purchaser agree that the damages
      that Seller will sustain as a result of such termination will be substantial
      but
      will be difficult to ascertain, and the aforesaid liquidated damages are a
      fair
      and reasonable amount to be retained by Seller as agreed and liquidated damages
      in light of Seller’s removal of the Premises from the market and the damages
      incurred by Seller and shall not constitute a penalty or a
      forfeiture

     

    Section
      16.2.  Seller’s
      Default On or Before Closing

     

    .

     

    (a)           If,
      on or prior to the Closing Date, (i) Seller defaults in any of the covenants,
      agreements or obligations to be performed by Seller under this Agreement on
      or
      as of the Closing Date (or at the Closing), or (ii) Seller otherwise materially
      defaults hereunder and such other material default is not cured by the earlier
      of (A) the Scheduled Closing Date (as it may have been adjourned in accordance
      with this Agreement) or (B) the date which is thirty (30) days after notice
      of
      such default from Purchaser to Seller, then, and in any of such events,
      Purchaser, as its sole remedy therefor, may either (1) seek specific performance
      of Seller’s obligations hereunder, without abatement, credit against or
      reduction of the Purchase Price or (2) terminate this Agreement by written
      notice to Seller (Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to so terminate
      this
      Agreement if Purchaser fails to file suit for specific performance against
      Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the city and state in which the
      Premises are located, on or before thirty (30) days following the date upon
      which Closing was to have occurred or if Purchaser thereafter dismisses such
      suit or otherwise fails to prosecute such suit with diligence and in good
      faith);   provided, however, in the event such
      termination is due to Seller’s willful breach or default, Purchaser shall be
      entitled to recover from Seller the actual reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
      incurred by Purchaser and paid to (A) Purchaser’s attorneys in connection with
      the negotiation of this Agreement and (B) Purchaser’s attorneys and unrelated
      and affiliated third party consultants, contractors, suppliers or other third
      parties in connection with the performance of examinations, inspections and/or
      investigations pursuant to this Agreement or determining the feasibility of
      Purchaser’s acquisition of the Property pursuant to this Agreement and
provided, further, that in the event (X) specific performance is
      not available because Seller has conveyed the Premises to another party, or
      (Y)
      Seller has voluntarily encumbered the Premises with a mortgage, deed of trust
      or
      financing lien that Seller does not cause to be released at Closing in violation
      of this Agreement, or (Z) Seller has willfully amended, modified or terminated
      the Shook Hardy Lease, the Development Plan or the Development Contract in
      a
      manner which violates Article XI of this Agreement, then Purchaser may
      pursue any and all remedies available at law or in equity, including the
      recovery of its costs and expense, provided, however, in no event shall
      Purchaser be permitted to recover, in the aggregate, in excess of One Million
      and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00).  If Purchaser shall so elect to
      terminate this Agreement, then the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser and
      (except as may otherwise be expressly set forth below) neither party shall
      have
      any further rights or obligations hereunder other than those which expressly
      survive the termination of this Agreement.  Except as expressly
      provided in this Article XVI, Purchaser waives any other right or remedy,
      at law or in equity, which Purchaser may have or be entitled to as a result
      of
      any default by Seller.  The term “default”, as used herein, shall mean
      the failure to perform an obligation or covenant, and shall not be deemed to
      include an inaccuracy in any representation or warranty; it being understood
      and
      agreed that Section 16.2(b) and Section 16.3(b) hereof set forth
      the exclusive remedies of Purchaser for any claim which might arise out of
      any
      of the provisions of Article X (and, accordingly, the provisions of this
Section 16.2(a) shall not apply to any such
      claims).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall limit
      Purchaser’s obligations under any indemnities or other provisions which survive
      the termination of this Agreement (including, Purchaser’s obligation to
      indemnify Seller under Section 19.15) and under Section
      19.13.

     

    (b)           If,
      on or prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall become aware of any
      inaccuracies in any representation or warranty made by Seller pursuant to
Section 10.1 or Section 10.2 which, in any case or in the
      aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on
      Purchaser, then, and in any of such events, Purchaser, as its sole remedy
      therefor, may either (1) elect to proceed to the Closing, without abatement,
      credit against or reduction of the Purchase Price (except as may otherwise
      be
      expressly set forth in this Agreement) or (2) terminate this Agreement by
      written notice to Seller.  If Purchaser shall so elect to terminate
      this Agreement, then the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser and (except
      as
      may otherwise be expressly set forth below) neither party shall have any further
      rights or obligations hereunder other than those which expressly survive the
      termination of this Agreement.  Without limiting the generality of
      this Section 16.2(b), in no event shall the occurrence of any of the
      events or circumstances described in the preceding subclauses (i), (ii) and
      (iii) of this Section 16.2(b) give rise to any obligation of Seller to
      cure an inaccuracy in any representation or warranty or otherwise make Seller
      liable for damages on account thereof (for avoidance of doubt, the parties
      acknowledge that this sentence does not negate or otherwise limit any rights
      that Purchaser may expressly have under Section 16.2(a) above or
Section 16.3 below.

     

    (c)           If
      Purchaser, with knowledge of (i) a default in any of the covenants, agreements
      or obligations to be performed by Seller under this Agreement, and/or (ii)
      a
      material inaccuracy in any representation or warranty of Seller made in this
      Agreement, elects to proceed to Closing, then, upon the consummation of the
      Closing, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any such default and/or
      material inaccuracy and shall have no claim against Seller on account
      thereof.

     

    Section
      16.3.  Survival

     

    .

     

    (a)  Except
      as
      otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no provision of this Agreement
      (i.e., no representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other
      obligation set forth in any provision of this Agreement) shall survive the
      Closing (and, accordingly, no claim arising out of the same may be commenced
      after the Closing), and delivery of the deed(s) to Purchaser shall be deemed
      full performance and discharge of every agreement and obligation on the part
      of
      Seller and Purchaser to be performed under this Agreement, and no agreement,
      promise, representation or warranty, whether express or implied on the part
      of
      Seller or Purchaser or any agent, officer, employee or representative of Seller
      or Purchaser shall survive the Closing unless expressly stated herein to survive
      the Closing.  The representations or warranties of Seller made
      pursuant to Section 10.1 and Section 10.2 shall survive the
      Closing for a period of one (1) year after Closing (the “Survival
      Period”), and shall be actionable, subject to Section
      16.3(b).

     

    (b)  If,
      after
      the Closing, Purchaser shall first learn of (i) any inaccuracies in any
      representation or warranty of Seller made pursuant to Section 10.1 or
Section 10.2 which, in any case or in the aggregate, could be reasonably
      likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on Purchaser, or (ii) a default in
      any
      of the covenants, agreements or obligations to be performed by Seller under
      this
      Agreement which expressly survives the Closing, then Purchaser shall have a
      claim for damages on account thereof, provided that:  (1) written
      notice of any such claim must have been given to Seller by Purchaser with the
      Survival Period and any such claim not brought within the Survival Period shall
      be deemed waived; (2) Purchaser hereby waives the right to collect or seek
      to
      collect consequential or punitive damages; (3) the amount of damages sought
      for
      all such claims (excluding consideration of attorneys’ fees and costs related to
      making and prosecuting such claims) must collectively aggregate to more than
      the
      Minimum Amount (in such event, such claims shall not be limited to the aggregate
      excess above the Minimum Amount, but rather such claims shall be actionable
      from
      the first dollar thereof); and (4) in no event shall the liability of Seller
      for
      such claims (including, without limitation, for attorneys’ fees and costs)
      exceed, in the aggregate, the Cap (and Purchaser hereby waives any right to
      seek
      or enforce one or more judgments against Seller to the extent that any such
      judgments exceed, in the aggregate, the Cap).   Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, the requirement that there be a minimum amount of damages and
      the
      Cap shall not apply to the obligations of Seller under Section 4.3,
Article XIV or Section 15.1(f) hereof or under the Deed, the
      Easement Agreement, the Chilled Water Supply Contract or the Master Services
      Agreement.

     

    (c)           The
      representations or warranties of
      Purchaser made pursuant to Section 10.3
      shall survive the Closing for the
      Survival Period.

     

    Section
      16.4.  Determination
      of Material Inaccuracy

     

    .  Notwithstanding
      any
      provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no inaccuracies in any
      representation or warranty made by Seller pursuant to Section 10.1 and
Section 10.2, with respect to the Premises shall be deemed to have a
“Material Adverse Effect on Purchaser” unless Purchaser can
      reasonably demonstrate that the loss or damage resulting from such inaccuracies,
      in the aggregate, is more than the Minimum Amount.  If any such
      inaccuracies in any representation or warranty under Section 10.1 and
Section 10.2  shall not have a Material Adverse Effect on
      Purchaser, as determined in accordance with this Section 16.4, then
      Purchaser shall not be entitled to any right or remedy under this Agreement,
      at
      law or equity as a result of such inaccuracies, including the right to terminate
      this Agreement if Purchaser shall become aware of such inaccuracies on or before
      the Closing.

      have
      no liability to Purchaser or Seller as a result of acting or refraining from

    Section
      19.1.  Governing
      Law; Jurisdiction and Venue

     

    .

     

    (a)  This
      Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
      substantive laws of the State of Missouri, without regard to conflict of law
      principles.

     

    (b)  For
      the
      purposes of any suit, action or proceeding involving this Agreement, Seller
      and
      Purchaser each hereby expressly submits to the jurisdiction of all federal
      and
      state courts sitting in the State of Missouri and City of Kansas City and
      consents that any order, process, notice of motion or other application to
      or by
      any such court or a judge thereof may be served within or without such court’s
      jurisdiction by registered mail or by personal service, provided that a
      reasonable time for appearance is allowed, Seller and Purchaser each agrees
      that
      such courts shall have the exclusive jurisdiction over any such suit, action
      or
      proceeding commenced by either or both of said parties.  In
      furtherance of such agreement, Seller and Purchaser each agrees upon the request
      of the other to discontinue (or agree to the discontinuance of) any such suit,
      action or proceeding pending in any other jurisdiction.

     

    (c)  Seller
      and Purchaser each hereby irrevocably waives any objection that it may now
      or
      hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising
      out of or relating to this Agreement brought in any federal or state court
      sitting in the State of Missouri and City of Kansas City and hereby further
      irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought
      in
      any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

     

    Section
      19.2.  Further
      Assurances

     

    .  In
      addition to the obligations required to be performed hereunder by Seller and
      Purchaser at or prior to the Closing, each party, from and after the Closing,
      shall execute, acknowledge and/or deliver such other instruments, as may
      reasonably be requested in order to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement;
      provided, however, that the foregoing provisions of this
Section 19.2 shall not obligate either party to execute, acknowledge
      or
      deliver any instrument which would or might impose upon such party any
      additional cost, liability or obligation (beyond that imposed upon on it under
      the documents delivered by such party at the Closing and the other provisions
      of
      this Agreement which survive the Closing).

     

    Section
      19.3.  Successors
      and Assigns

     

    .  All
      of the provisions of this Agreement and of any of the documents and instruments
      executed in connection herewith shall apply to and be binding upon, and inure
      to
      the benefit of Seller and Purchaser, their successors and permitted
      assigns.  Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement
      without first obtaining Seller’s written approval, which approval may be given,
      conditioned or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion, and any such attempted
      assignment without Seller’s prior written approval shall be null and void;
      provided, however, Seller’s written approval shall not be required for an
      assignment to a wholly-owned subsidiary of HINES REIT PROPERTIES, L.P., a
      Delaware limited partnership (a “Permitted
      Affiliate”).  In the event Purchaser intends to assign its
      rights hereunder, (a) Purchaser shall send Seller written notice (i) of its
      request for Seller’s approval hereunder, in the case of an assignment which is
      not to a Permitted Affiliate, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the
      date
      of the proposed assignment, which request shall include the legal name and
      structure of the proposed assignee, as well as its most recent financial
      statements and any other information that Seller may reasonably request or
      (ii)
      of its intended assignment to a Permitted Affiliate at least three (3) Business
      Days prior to the date of the proposed assignment which notice shall include
      the
      legal name and structure of the proposed assignee and the details of its
      qualification as a Permitted Affiliate, and (b) Purchaser and the proposed
      assignee shall execute an assignment and assumption of this Agreement in form
      and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller, and (c) in no event shall
      any
      assignment of this Agreement release or discharge Purchaser from any liability
      or obligation occurring hereunder.  Any transfer, directly or
      indirectly, of any stock, partnership interest or other ownership interest
      in
      Purchaser shall constitute an assignment of this Agreement; provided, however,
      any such transfers shall not constitute an assignment of this Agreement so
      long
      as Purchaser remains a wholly-owned subsidiary of HINES REIT PROPERTIES, L.P.,
      a
      Delaware limited partnership, and HINES REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST, INC.
      is
      the general partner and majority owner of, and controls, said
      partnership.  

     

    Section
      19.4.  No
      Third Party Beneficiary

     

    This
      Agreement and each of the provisions hereof are solely for the benefit of
      Purchaser and Seller and their successors and permitted assigns.  No
      provisions of this Agreement, or of any of the documents and instruments
      executed in connection herewith, shall be construed as creating in any person
      or
      entity other than Purchaser and Seller and their successors and permitted
      assigns any rights of any nature whatsoever.

     

    Section
      19.5.  Entire
      Agreement

     

    .  This
      Agreement, together with the documents and instruments executed and delivered
      in
      connection herewith, sets forth the entire agreement between Purchaser and
      Seller relating to the transactions contemplated hereby and all other prior
      or
      contemporaneous agreements, understandings, representations or statements,
      oral
      or written, relating directly to the Premises are superseded
      hereby.

     

    Section
      19.6.  Severability

     

    .  If
      any provision in this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction
      to
      be in violation of any applicable law, and if such court should declare such
      provision of this Agreement to be unlawful, void, illegal or unenforceable
      in
      any respect, the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed as if such
      unlawful, void, illegal or unenforceable provision were not contained herein,
      and the rights, obligations and interests of the parties hereto under the
      remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect undisturbed
      and unmodified in any way.

     

    Section
      19.7.  Modification

     

    .                        This
      Agreement and the terms hereof may not be changed, waived, modified,
      supplemented, canceled, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an
      instrument or instruments in writing executed and delivered by Purchaser and
      Seller.

     

    Section
      19.8.  Waiver
      of Trial by Jury

     

    .  EACH
      PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
      ACTION BROUGHT ON, UNDER OR BY VIRTUE OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS
      AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE DOCUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, THE PREMISES,
      OR ANY CLAIMS, DEFENSES, RIGHTS OF SET-OFF OR OTHER ACTIONS PERTAINING HERETO
      OR
      TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING.

     

    Section
      19.9.  No
      Recording

     

    .  Neither
      this Agreement nor any memorandum hereof shall be recorded.  Each
      party hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the others for all
      liabilities, losses, damages, liens, suits, claims, costs and expenses
      (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the other by reason of a
      breach of the foregoing covenant.

     

    Section
      19.10.  Captions;
      Interpretation

     

    .

     

    (a)  The
      captions in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and
      in
      no way define, describe or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or any
      of
      the provisions hereof.  All references to “Articles” and “Sections”
without reference to a document other than this Agreement, are intended to
      designate articles and sections of this Agreement, and the words “herein,”
“hereof,” “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement
      as a whole and not to any particular Article or Section, unless specifically
      designated otherwise.

     

    (b)  As
      used
      in this Agreement, the masculine shall include the feminine and neuter, the
      singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular,
      as
      the context may require.

     

    (c)  The
      use
      of the term “including” shall mean in all cases “including but not limited to”
unless specifically designated otherwise.

     

    (d)  References
      to the “knowledge” of Seller and words of similar import shall refer only to the
      current actual (and not constructive) knowledge of Jack E. Tinnel, Vice
      President of Real Estate and Facilities, Stacey L. Paine, Vice President of
      Finance and Administration, and Dave Roesler of the facts in question at the
      time in question and shall not be construed, by imputation or otherwise, (i)
      to
      impose upon such persons any duty to investigate the matter to which such actual
      knowledge, or the absence thereof, pertains or to refer to the knowledge of
      Seller or any affiliate of Seller, to any property manager, or (ii) to any
      other
      officer, agent, manager, representative or employee of Seller or any affiliate
      thereof.  There shall be no personal liability on the part of such
      persons arising out of any representation or warranties made
      herein.

     

    (e)  No

      of construction against the drafter of this Agreement shall apply in any
      interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, any documents or certificates
      executed pursuant hereto, or any provisions of any of the
      foregoing.

     

    Section
      19.11.  Counterparts

     

    .  This
      Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken
      together shall constitute one and the same original, and the execution of
      separate counterparts by Purchaser and Seller shall bind Purchaser and Seller
      as
      if they had each executed the same counterpart.  Signatures to this
      Agreement transmitted by telecopy shall be valid and effective to bind the
      party
      so signing.  Each party agrees to promptly deliver an executed
      original counterpart of this Agreement with its actual signature to the other
      party, but a failure to do so shall not affect the enforceability of this
      Agreement, it being expressly agreed that each party to this Agreement shall
      be
      bound by its own telecopied signature and shall accept the telecopied signature
      of the other party to this agreement.

     

    Section
      19.12.  No
      Waiver

     

    .  Neither
      the failure of either party to exercise any power given such party hereunder
      or
      to insist upon strict compliance by the other party with its obligations
      hereunder, nor any custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms
      hereof shall constitute a waiver of either party’s right to demand exact
      compliance with the terms hereof.

     

    Section
      19.13.  Confidentiality

     

    .  Purchaser
      acknowledges that all information in respect of Seller and the Premises
      furnished to Purchaser is and has been so furnished on the condition that
      Purchaser maintain the confidentiality thereof.  Accordingly,
      Purchaser shall, and shall cause its directors, officers, members, shareholders,
      principals, agents and representatives and other permitted recipients of any
      such information hereunder, to hold in strict confidence, and not disclose
      to
      any other party without the prior written consent of Seller until the Closing
      shall have been consummated, any such information delivered to Purchaser by
      Seller or any of its agents, representatives or employees.  In the
      event that the Closing does not occur and this Agreement is terminated,
      Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller or destroy all originals and copies
      of
      all documents and other such information heretofore delivered to Purchaser
      in
      connection with this transaction without retaining any copy thereof and shall
      destroy all electronic records of such documents or containing any such
      information.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary hereinabove set
      forth, Purchaser may disclose such information (i) on a need-to-know basis
      to
      its employees or members of professional firms or financial advisors serving
      it
      in connection with this transaction, (ii) which is publicly accessible (except
      by reason of, directly or indirectly, Purchaser’s actions), (iii) lenders and
      mortgage brokers, and (iv) as may be required for Purchaser, its Affiliates,
      its
      related parties, its manager in order to comply with applicable laws,
      regulations or court orders, including any applicable federal or state
      securities laws, rules or regulations or to comply with the requirements of
      the
      Securities and Exchange Commission.  The provisions of this Section
      shall survive any termination of this Agreement and, to the extent concerning
      lands outside of the Premises, the Closing.

     

    Section
      19.14.   Notice
      of Pendency

     

    .  Purchaser
      hereby waives its right to file a notice of pendency or lis pendens against
      the
      Premises or to take any other affirmative action with respect to the existence
      of this Agreement to impede Seller’s ability to convey or encumber the
      Premises.

     

    Section
      19.15.   Access

     

    .  Purchaser
      and its agents shall have the right to inspect the Premises during business
      hours, provided that Purchaser shall first give Seller reasonable advance
      notification of its intention to conduct any such inspection and that such
      inspection shall not unreasonably impede the normal day-to-day business
      operation of the Premises or interfere with any Tenant and Purchaser’s right of
      inspection of the Premises shall be subject to the rights of the
      Tenants.  Purchaser shall exercise reasonable care at all times that
      Purchaser shall be present upon the Premises and in the performance of all
      inspections.  Seller shall have the right to have a representative of
      Seller accompany Purchaser during any inspections. Purchaser shall not
      communicate in any manner with the Tenants concerning their respective leases
      or
      occupancy or the Premises, including, without limitation, its potential sale,
      without Seller’s prior written consent in every instance; provided, however,
      Seller shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to permit Purchaser to
      conduct an interview with any tenant, at a time and place convenient for all
      parties.  Prior to any entrance upon the Premises for the performance
      of any inspection, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a certificate of insurance
      evidencing that Purchaser has procured, and Purchaser throughout the performance
      of such inspection shall maintain in force and effect, a commercial general
      liability insurance policy covering Purchaser and Seller against claims for
      bodily injury or death or property damage occurring in, upon or about or
      resulting from the Premises, or any street, drive, sidewalk, curb or passageway
      adjacent thereto, in standard form and an amount of no less than $2,000,000
      (combined single limit), issued by an insurance company with a rating of “A” or
      better as established by Best’s Rating Guide, which insurance shall include
      blanket contractual liability coverage. Purchaser hereby indemnifies and agrees
      to defend and hold Seller harmless from all loss, cost (including reasonable
      attorneys’ fees), claim or damage arising in connection with or from any such
      inspection by Purchaser or its agents or contractors, or any of their respective
      conduct while at the Premises pursuant to the provisions of this Section;
      provided the indemnity shall not extend to protect Seller from any pre-existing
      liabilities for matters merely discovered by Purchaser (i.e., latent
      environmental contamination).  Purchaser’s obligations under this
Section 19.15 shall survive Closing or any expiration or termination of
      this Agreement for a period of one (1) year.

     

    Section
      19.16.   Cooperation
      with Purchaser’s Auditors and SEC Filing Requirements

     

    .  Seller
      shall, without representation, warranty or liability of any kind
      to  Purchaser or any affiliate of Purchaser, provide to Purchaser (at
      Purchaser’s expense) copies of, or shall provide Purchaser reasonable access to,
      such factual information as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser, and in
      the
      possession or control of Seller, or its property manager or accountants, to
      enable Purchaser’s auditor (Deloitte & Touche LLP or any successor auditor
      selected by Purchaser) to conduct an audit of the income statements of the
      Premises for the year to date of the year in which the Closing occurs plus
      up to
      one (1) prior calendar year (provided, however, such audit shall not include
      an
      audit of management fees or interest expenses).  Purchaser shall be
      responsible for all out-of-pocket costs associated with this
      audit.  Seller shall reasonably cooperate (at no cost to Seller) with
      Purchaser’s auditor in the conduct of such audit. In addition, Seller agrees to
      provide, without representation, warranty or liability of any kind to Purchaser
      or any affiliate of Purchaser, if requested by such auditor, historical
      financial statements for the Premises, including income and balance sheet data
      for the Property, whether required before or after Closing.  Without
      limiting the foregoing, (a) Purchaser or its designated independent or other
      auditor may audit Seller's operating statements of the Premises, at Purchaser's
      expense, and Seller shall, without representation, warranty or liability of
      any
      kind to Purchaser or any affiliate of Purchaser, provide such documentation
      as
      Purchaser or its auditor may reasonably request in order to complete such audit,
      and (b) Seller shall furnish to Purchaser such financial and other information
      as may be reasonably required by Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser to
      make
      any required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other
      governmental authority; provided, however, that the foregoing obligations of
      Seller shall be limited to providing such information or documentation as may
      be
      in the possession of, or reasonably obtainable by, Seller, its property manager
      or accountants, at no material cost to Seller, and in the format that Seller
      (or
      its property manager or accountants) have maintained such
      information.  This Section shall survive the Closing for a period of
      six (6) months.
