($53,000,000.00), and shall be paid as follows:

 

(a)          $500,000.00, together with all interest
accrued thereon (the “Initial Deposit”), within two (2) business days of
the execution of this Agreement by Seller and Purchaser, to be deposited in
escrow with First American Title Insurance Company of New York (“Escrow Agent”),

 

(b)         $500,000.00 (the “Second Deposit”, the

Such Independent Consideration is being paid to, and shall be retained
by, Seller as additional consideration for this Agreement and not as part of
the Purchase Price.  Such Independent
Consideration is deemed earned by Seller as of the Effective Date of this
Agreement and is non-refundable in all events.

 

2.                                       Investigation; Title Commitment; Survey.

 

2.01.                        Purchaser and its agents and representatives shall
have through and until 3:00pm New York time on January 6, 2010 (the “Due
Diligence Period”) in which to make an inspection of the Property and the
Property Materials (as defined below). 
If for any reason whatsoever Purchaser is not satisfied with the results
of its due diligence review, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by sending
written notice of termination to Seller at any time prior to the expiration of
the Due Diligence Period, in which event the Purchaser shall be entitled to the
prompt return of the Deposit.  Purchaser’s
failure to send timely notice of its termination prior to the expiration of the
Due Diligence Period shall be deemed a waiver of Purchaser’s right to terminate
this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.01.  Upon any termination of this Agreement,
Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller or destroy all unreturned information
regarding the Property of whatever nature made available to Purchaser by Seller
or Seller’s agents or representatives (the “Property Materials”), and the
parties shall have no further obligations or liability hereunder, except for
such obligations which expressly survive the termination of this
Agreement.  Seller shall provide
Purchaser the Property Materials set forth on Exhibit 2.01 within one (1) business day after the later of (i) the
execution of this Agreement by all parties hereto and (ii) the date that
the Deposit is received by the Escrow Agent.  Provided that Purchaser has deposited the
Deposit with the Escrow Agent as required hereby, during the term of this
Agreement, upon reasonable advance notice to Seller (which notice shall be
delivered at least one full business day prior to property visits and at least
three full business days prior to visits involving testing or entry into any
tenant’s apartment) (which notices may be by telephone), Purchaser, its agents
and representatives shall be entitled to enter upon the Property during regular
business hours (subject to the rights of tenants in possession) to perform such
inspections and tests of the Property as Purchaser deems reasonably necessary
to evaluate the purchase of the Property; provided, however, that in no event
shall (i) such inspections or tests unreasonably disrupt or disturb the
on-going operation of the Property or the rights of the tenants at the
Property, (ii) Purchaser or its agents or representatives drill or bore on
or through the surface of the Property or conduct any other invasive test
without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent may be given or withheld
in such Seller’s sole and absolute discretion, and (iii) Purchaser perform
any tests at or on the Property after the expiration of the Due Diligence
Period.  For the avoidance of doubt,
during Purchaser’s visits to the Property permitted hereunder, Purchaser shall
be entitled to review Seller’s lease files located at the Property.  Purchaser shall furnish to Seller
satisfactory evidence that Purchaser is insured under a policy of

 

 

general liability insurance providing limits of not less than Two
Million and no/100ths Dollars ($2,000,000.00) (which amount may be met in
combination with an umbrella/excess liability policy) against any and all
personal injury, death, loss, damage, expense, liability or responsibility
whatsoever which may be occasioned, directly or indirectly, by reason of this
exercise of this right of entry upon or inspection of the Property by Purchaser
of any of its agents or assigns. 
Purchaser agrees to repair any damage to the Property caused by any
testing or inspection and to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and
against any expense, claim or liability for personal injury or property damage
caused by entry upon the Property by Purchaser’s agents, representatives or
employees in connection with Purchaser’s inspection pursuant to this Section 2.01
or any other entry by Purchaser on the Property, provided, however, such indemnity shall not cover the mere discovery of
existing conditions.  Purchaser shall
promptly upon receiving notice of any lien placed on the Property by reason of
Purchaser’s or its agent’s or representative’s tests or inspections, cause the
lien to be discharged or bonded at Purchaser’s sole expense, and such lien
shall be deemed a Permitted Exception. 
Purchaser anticipates causing its independent contractors, agents,
consultants and other representatives conducting the inspection pursuant to
this Section 2.01 or any other entry by Purchaser on the Property
(collectively, “Purchaser’s Feasibility Representatives”) to procure and
maintain during the term of this Agreement liability insurance of not less than
$2,000,000 and to cause Purchaser’s Feasibility Representatives to indemnify
and hold Purchaser harmless from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs,
and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) for and from which
Purchaser is obligated to indemnify and hold Seller harmless in this Section 2.01.  If (i) Purchaser is obligated to
indemnify and hold Seller harmless in this Section 2.01 and (ii) Seller
actually receives money on account of any indemnification and hold harmless
from Purchaser’s Feasibility Representatives (by way of an assignment from
Purchaser to Seller or otherwise), Purchaser shall not be obligated to indemnify
and hold Seller harmless in this Section 2.01 to the extent of such
money actually received by Seller. 
Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the foregoing
indemnity shall survive the Closing or the termination of this Agreement for
any reason.

 

Seller shall terminate each Service Contract which is
terminable at no cost to Seller on no more than thirty (30) days notice
effective as of the Closing Date if Purchaser notifies Seller to terminate the
same prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period.

 

2.02.                        As soon as practical after the execution and delivery
of this Agreement, Seller shall, if it has not already done so, order a
commitment (the “Title Commitment”) for a 2006 ALTA extended owner’s title
insurance policy, issued by First American Title Insurance Company (the “Title
Insurance Company”), together with copies of all recorded documents (“Exception
Documents”) referred to in the Title Commitment and the Searches (as hereafter
defined).

 

(b)         As soon as practical after the execution
and delivery of this Agreement, Seller shall, if it has not already done so,
order (i) an ALTA survey of the Real Property (the “Survey”) by a surveyor
licensed in the State of Colorado certified to Seller, Purchaser and the Title
Insurance Company setting forth and depicting, such matters necessary to obtain
extended title insurance coverage for the Real Property over all general survey
exceptions

 

 

and (ii) Current UCC, tax lien and judgment searches with respect
to Seller and its manager, Cherry Creek Manager, Inc., for the Real
Property and the Personal Property showing all liens, security interests and
adverse claims affecting the Seller’s interest in the Real Property and/or the
Personal Property (collectively, “Searches”). The Survey shall meet the Minimum
Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys adopted by the
ALTA and the ACSM in 2005 and shall include Table A Items 1-4, 6, 7(a), 7(c),
8, 9, 10, 11(a), and 14.

 

(c)          On or before the date which is five (5) business
days after receipt by Purchaser of all of the Title Commitment, Exception
Documents, Survey and Searches (or any update, amendment, or change to any of
the same), Purchaser may provide Seller with written notice (each, a “Purchaser’s
Exception Notice”) setting forth a list of the matters set forth or disclosed
in the same that are not acceptable to Purchaser (each, an “Unpermitted
Exception” and, collectively, Unpermitted Exceptions”; and all matters not so
objected to are herein referred to as “Permitted Exceptions”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser
shall not object to (i) any exception for the rights of tenants under the
Leases or any leases entered into in accordance with Section 7.02 below or
any other matter permitted thereunder, and the same shall be deemed “Permitted
Exceptions”; (ii) in respect of the Survey, any matter unless said matter
constitutes a material defect, encroachment or other material adverse title
and/or survey matter that is not set forth on Exhibit 2.01(c), and
said matters to which Purchaser is not permitted to object shall be deemed “Permitted
Exceptions”; and (iii) any of the matters set forth on Exhibit 2.01(c),
all of which are deemed “Permitted Exceptions”.

 

2.03.                        Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, within
five (5) business days after receipt of a Purchaser’s Exception Notice (a “Seller’s
Election Period”), to send Purchaser written notice (a “Seller’s Election
Notice”) that Seller has agreed to use reasonable efforts to remove or
otherwise remedy any or all of the Unpermitted Exceptions set forth in such
Purchaser’s Exception Notice on or before the Closing Date.  If Seller provides Purchaser with such
written notice within such Seller’s Election Period, Seller shall use
reasonable efforts (but shall not be required to undertake any litigation) to
remove or otherwise remedy the Unpermitted Exceptions set forth on such Seller’s
Election Notice in a manner reasonably acceptable to Purchaser on or before the
Closing Date, and in the event that Seller despite such reasonable efforts
fails to remove or remedy such Unpermitted Exceptions in a manner reasonably
acceptable to Purchaser on or before the Closing Date, Purchaser, as its sole
remedy, shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement.  Upon such termination, Escrow Agent shall
promptly deliver the Deposit to Purchaser and Purchaser promptly shall destroy
or return or cause to be returned to Seller all unreturned Property Materials
received by Purchaser and its agents and representatives from Seller and the
parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except as
otherwise expressly provided herein.

 

2.04.                        If Seller does not agree within a Seller’s Election
Period to remove all Unpermitted Exceptions referenced in the applicable
Purchaser’s Exception Notice on or before the Closing Date as hereinbefore
provided, Purchaser shall have five (5) business days after the earlier of
(i) receipt of the applicable Seller’s Election Notice or (ii) the
expiration of the applicable Seller’s Election Period to give Seller notice
that Purchaser has elected to terminate this Agreement or that it has waived
the applicable Title Objections that Seller has not agreed to

 

 

remove.  Upon any such
termination, the Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver the Deposit to Purchaser
and Purchaser shall destroy or return or cause to be returned to Seller all
unreturned Property Materials received by Purchaser and its agents and
representatives from Seller and the parties shall have no further rights or
obligations hereunder, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.  If Purchaser sends the foregoing notice of
waiver (or if Purchaser fails to give such notice) within the aforesaid five (5) business
day period, then the condition set forth in this Article 2 shall be
deemed satisfied or waived and the parties shall, subject to the satisfaction
of all other terms and conditions applicable to the respective parties’
obligations hereunder, be obligated to proceed to Closing.  In such event the term “Permitted Exceptions”
as used herein in connection with the status of title to be conveyed to
Purchaser shall mean and include all exceptions designated by Purchaser as
Permitted Exceptions pursuant to Section 2.02(c) hereof, as
well as any Unpermitted Exceptions as to which Purchaser has so waived (or been
deemed to have waived) its objections. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall cause liens of an
ascertainable amount voluntarily created by Seller to be released at the
Closing or otherwise omitted from the Title Policy in a manner reasonably
acceptable to Purchaser, and Seller further agrees to remove or otherwise cause
to be omitted from the Title Policy in a manner reasonably acceptable to
Purchaser any exceptions or encumbrances to title which are voluntarily created
by Seller after the date of this Agreement without Purchaser’s consent.

 

3.                                       Closing.

 

3.01.                        The closing of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement (the “Closing”) shall be at 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on January 21,
2010 (the “Closing Date”) or such earlier date as may be designated by
Purchaser in a notice from Purchaser to Seller delivered not less than ten (10) business
days before such earlier Closing Date, as the same may be adjourned in
accordance with the terms hereof, time being of the essence.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser
shall have a one time right to extend the Closing Date to a date certain that
is not more than thirty (30) days after the initial Closing Date by delivering
notice thereof to Seller (the “Extension Notice”), prior to the expiration of
the Due Diligence Period.  Within three
business days after its delivery of the Extension Notice (and as a condition
precedent to the effectiveness of the Extension Notice), Purchaser shall deliver
$1,000,000 (the “Third Deposit”, the term “Third Deposit” shall include all
interest accrued thereon) to the Escrow Agent, which amount shall be paid by
Purchaser and held by Escrow Agent in the same manner as the Initial
Deposit.  The Closing shall be held at
the offices of the Escrow Agent or at such other location as the parties may
agree, or by escrow arrangement acceptable to the parties.

 

3.02.                        It is a condition to Purchaser’s obligations to
proceed to Closing that, as of the Closing Date (a) all of Seller’s
representations and warranties hereunder are true and correct in all material
respects as if made on and as of the Closing Date, (b) Seller has
performed all of its covenants and satisfied all of its obligations hereunder, (c) the
Title Insurance Company has irrevocably committed to issue a 2006 ALTA Extended
Coverage Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (subject to payment of the portion
of the premium, if any, that Purchaser is required to pay hereunder) with
liability in an amount equal to the Purchase Price showing the Real Property vested
in Purchaser (or Purchaser’s permitted assignee or nominee) free and clear of
any occupants or rights to possession other than pursuant to the Leases (as
defined in

 

 

Section 4.01(e)), the Permitted Exceptions, any leases entered into
pursuant to Section 7.02 below and title exceptions, if any,
resulting from documents recorded by Purchaser at Closing, (the “Title Policy”)
(d) Seller has delivered all documents and made all other deliveries
required in this Agreement and (e) all other conditions to Purchaser’s
obligations to proceed to Closing which are set forth in this Agreement are
satisfied.  If any condition to Purchaser’s
obligations hereunder is not fulfilled in any material respect, including any
condition not set forth in this Section 3.02, Purchaser shall have
no obligation to proceed to Closing, but may do so at its option.  If a condition precedent is not fulfilled in
any material respect and Purchaser is not prepared to proceed to Closing,
Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing that it elects to terminate this
Agreement, without limiting its rights in respect of any default by Seller
provided hereunder.  Upon such
termination, the Escrow Agent shall promptly return the Deposit to Purchaser
and Purchaser shall destroy or return or cause to be returned to Seller all
unreturned Property Materials received by Purchaser and its agents and
representatives from Seller and the parties shall have no further rights or
obligations hereunder except as otherwise expressly provided herein.  Purchaser acknowledges that if any of the
representations and warranties made by Seller hereunder as of the date hereof
are not true and complete in all material respects as if made on and as of the
Closing Date, and the cause of which is not the result of Seller’s act or
wrongful omission or default hereunder or breach of such representation and
warranty when made, Purchaser’s sole remedy shall be either to waive the
condition described in clause (a) above with respect to such
representation and warranty (in which event such representation and warranty
shall be deemed amended to reflect the actual state of facts of which Seller
has actual knowledge) or terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the
Deposit as provided above for failure of a condition.  Upon such termination, the Escrow Agent shall
promptly return the Deposit to Purchaser and Purchaser shall destroy or return
or cause to be returned to Seller all unreturned Property Materials received by
Purchaser and its agents and representatives from Seller and the parties shall
have no further rights or obligations hereunder except as otherwise expressly
provided herein.

 

3.03.                        It is a condition to Seller’s obligations to proceed
to Closing that, as of the Closing Date (a) all of Purchaser’s
representations and warranties hereunder are true and correct in all material
respects as if made on and as of the Closing Date, (b) Purchaser has
performed all of its covenants hereunder, (c) the Purchaser has delivered
all documents and made all other deliveries required in this Agreement, and (d) all
other conditions to Seller’s obligations to proceed to Closing which are set
forth in this Agreement are satisfied. 
If any condition to Seller’s obligations hereunder is not fulfilled in
any material respect, including any condition not set forth in this Section 3.03,
Seller shall have no obligation to proceed to Closing, but may do so at its
option.  If a condition precedent is not
fulfilled in any material respect and Seller is not prepared to proceed to
Closing, Seller may terminate this Agreement by sending written notice to
Purchaser without limiting its rights in respect of any default by Purchaser
hereunder.  Upon such termination, the
Escrow Agent shall promptly return the Deposit to Purchaser and Purchaser shall
destroy or return or cause to be returned to Seller all unreturned Property
Materials received by Purchaser and its agents and representatives from Seller
and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except as
otherwise expressly provided herein.

people: Mr. Robert Kass, who is a Managing Director of Sentinel Real
Estate Corporation, and Stephanie Chamblin, who is an asset manager in respect
of the Property.

 

4.03.                        The representations and warranties of Seller contained
in Section 4.01 shall survive the Closing until the date nine (9) months
from the date thereof unless a written claim in respect thereof is still
pending on such date (in which case the relevant representations and warranties
shall survive as to the pending claim until its final resolution) (the “Survival
Period”).

 

4.04.                        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, the liability of Seller in respect of the representations and
warranties contained in Section 4.01 above shall be limited to
Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100ths Dollars ($750,000.00) in the
aggregate, and the recovery of such amount from Seller shall be Purchaser’s
sole and exclusive remedy in respect thereof. 
Seller hereby covenants to Purchaser that (i) Seller shall maintain
in a bank account of Seller the sum of not less than $750,000, for the nine
month period following the Closing Date and (ii) Seller shall not
terminate its existence with the Colorado Secretary of State until the end of
the Survival Period.  This Section 4.04
shall survive Closing.

 

5.                                       Representations and Warranties of
Purchaser.

 

5.01.                        Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller and
its successors and assigns as of the date hereof that:

 

(a)          Purchaser is a limited partnership duly
organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and is
authorized to own its property and conduct its business in each jurisdiction
where it is required to be so authorized.

 

(b)         Purchaser has the legal right, power and
authority to enter into this Agreement and will prior to Closing have all legal
right, power and authority to perform all its obligations hereunder, and the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser and the performance by
Purchaser of its obligations hereunder (i) have been duly authorized, or
will be duly authorized by Closing, by all requisite action, and (ii) shall
not conflict with, or result in a breach or violation of, or be modified,
restricted or precluded by (w) any of the terms, conditions and provisions
of the organizational documents of Purchaser, (x) any order, judgment,
writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality which
has been served or otherwise received by Purchaser, (y) any agreement or
instrument to which Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound, or to which
it or any portion of its property is subject, or (z) any law, rule or
regulation.

 

5.02.                        The representations and warranties of Purchaser
contained in Section 5.01 shall survive the Closing until
expiration of the Survival Period.

 

 

6.                                       Brokerage.

 

6.01.                        Neither party has had any contact or
dealings regarding the Property, or any communication in connection with the
subject matter of this transaction, through any real estate broker or other
person who can claim a right to a commission or finder’s fee in connection with
the sale contemplated herein, other than with Apartment Realty Advisors (“Broker”),
whose commission, if any, Purchaser shall pay in accordance with a separate
agreement between Purchaser and Broker. 
In the event any broker or finder other than Broker claims a commission
or finder’s fee based upon any contact, dealings or communication, the party
through whom such broker or finder makes its claim shall be responsible for
said commission or fee and all costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) incurred by the other party in defending against the
same.  The party through whom any broker
or finder other than Broker makes a claim shall hold harmless, indemnify and
defend the other party hereto, its successors and assigns, agents, employees,
directors, officers, trustees, shareholders, members from and against any and
all obligations, liabilities, claims, demands, liens, encumbrances and losses
(including attorneys’ fees), whether direct, contingent or consequential,
arising out of, based on, or incurred as a result of such claim.

 

6.02.                        The provisions of this Article 6
shall survive the Closing.

 

7.                                       Operations.

 

7.01.                        Between the date hereof and the Closing, Seller shall
operate and maintain the Property in its customary manner in all material
respects (including maintaining the URL or domain names currently in use for
the Property and not removing any of the items of Personal Property listed on Exhibit 1.01(c) unless
replaced with items of substantially the same or better quality), subject to
normal wear and tear, casualty and condemnation.  Until the Closing Date Seller shall maintain
insurance on the Property as currently insured, except for such changes as
shall be consented to by Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld.

 

7.02.                        Between the date hereof and the Closing, Seller may
enter into new leases for space in the Project in accordance with its current
business practices.  After the expiration
of the Due Diligence Period, Seller shall not enter into any new Lease or Lease
renewals that provide for a monthly rental less than the rental presently being
charged or be for a term less than six (6) months or in excess of twelve
(12) months without receiving Purchaser’s prior written consent, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing
restrictions, Seller may renew month to month leases for the then current
tenants at the Property.

 

7.03.                        Between the date hereof and the Closing, Seller
without the written consent of Purchaser, shall not enter into any contract
that will be an obligation affecting the Property subsequent to the Closing,
except contracts that are terminable without cause on 30-days’ notice and
without the payment of any termination or similar fee.

 

7.04.                        Seller shall bring all units which are vacant on the
date which is seven (7) days prior to Closing, up to rent ready condition,
consistent with Seller’s past practices, including

 

 

working appliances (either new or minimal cosmetic damage), paint and
cleaned or new (as reasonably necessary) carpets and for any such unit that
Seller fails to make “rent-ready” as aforesaid one (1) business day prior
to Closing, Seller shall give Purchaser a credit to be applied against the
Purchase Price at Closing in the amount of $500.00.

 

7.05.                        Seller shall not apply any security deposits against
rent delinquencies or other Lease defaults unless the subject Lease(s) have
been terminated and the tenant(s) thereunder have vacated the Premises.

 

7.06.                        Seller shall not initiate, consent to, approve or
otherwise make any change to zoning or any other governmental rules or
regulations presently applicable to all or any part of the Property.

 

7.07.                        As of Closing, all management contracts shall have
been terminated.

 

7.08.                        Prior to or at the Closing, Seller shall use
reasonable efforts to assist Purchaser in assigning any assignable warranties
or Service Contracts to Purchaser as Purchaser may request.

 

7.09.                        For a period of at least 72 hours before the Closing,
Seller shall use reasonable efforts to discontinue data entry operations in the
on-site computer system for the Property, including making deposits of rental
income.  Seller acknowledges that such
discontinuance is intended to afford Seller and Purchaser an opportunity to
coordinate the transition of the Property in anticipation of Closing and to
complete work on prorations as set forth in this Agreement.  Seller shall, as soon as reasonably
practicable after discontinuing such data entry, use reasonable efforts to
forward to Purchaser or its designee data to facilitate the compilation of
prorations.  For the avoidance of doubt,
it shall not be a default of Seller hereunder in the event that Seller does not
strictly comply with the provisions of this Section 7.09.

 

8.                                       Closing Adjustments; Transfer of Security
Deposits.

 

8.01.                        A statement of prorations and other adjustments (the “Closing
Statement”) shall be prepared by Seller in conformity with the provisions of
this Agreement and submitted to Purchaser for review, comment and approval (not
to be unreasonably withheld) not less than two (2) business days prior to
the Closing Date.  The following items in
respect of the Property shall be apportioned at Closing in an equitable manner
as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date (the “Adjustment
Date”) so that the income and expense items with respect to the period up to
and including the Adjustment Date will be for Seller’s account and the income
and expense items with respect to the period after the Adjustment Date will be
for Purchaser’s account:

 

(a)          Rents as and when collected.  Fixed rents and other periodic charges,
including without limitation any pet rents, garage rents or other recurring
rents and fees (collectively, “Rent”) owed by tenants that have not been
collected by Seller which are applicable to any period of time prior to the
Adjustment Date, if and when collected, shall be paid by

 

 

Purchaser to Seller, subject to the following sentence. Rents collected
after the Adjustment Date from a tenant who had been in arrears on the
Adjustment Date shall be deemed first to be payment of amounts, if any, due
from such tenant in respect of the period in which the Adjustment Date falls,
then in respect of periods subsequent to the Adjustment Date, and any balance
shall be deemed to be payment of amounts in arrears on the Adjustment Date.
Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to collect rent arrearages due Seller
from tenants, provided that Purchaser shall not be obligated to commence any litigation
against such tenants, incur any expense in collecting such arrearages or
terminate any tenant’s lease.  If after
ninety (90)days following the Closing Date, Purchaser has failed to collect any
such rent arrearages, Seller may institute proceedings against such tenant to
collect such rent arrearages, provided that in no event shall Seller be
entitled to terminate such tenant’s lease or dispossess such tenant.  Purchaser and Seller agree to promptly
deliver to the other the portion of any rents collected by such party to which
the other is entitled pursuant to this Section.

 

(b)         All real and personal property taxes and
other taxes and assessments imposed on the owner of the Property, as owner, and
not paid by others.  If the Closing shall
occur before the taxes and assessments are fixed for the current tax year, the
apportionment of such taxes and assessments shall be tentatively made on the
basis of the best available information on the current assessment and tax rate
and shall be finally adjusted (and any necessary payments shall be made) at
such time as the tax bill shall be issued. 
If after the Closing there shall be a retroactive increase in the
assessment of the Property and a corresponding increase in the real or personal
property taxes and assessments imposed on the owner of the Property: (i) if
such increase (other than an increase arising solely from the sale of the
Property to Purchaser) shall relate to the tax year in which the Closing
occurred such increase shall be prorated by Seller and Purchaser on a per diem
basis based on their respective periods of ownership during the period such
increase is effective, (ii) if such increase shall relate to any tax year
subsequent to the tax year which the Closing occurred, such increase shall be
the obligation of Purchaser, and (iii) if such increase shall relate to
any tax year prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurred, such increase
shall be the obligation of Seller.

 

(c)          Utility charges, payable by the owner of
the Property, including water and sewer charges, except that where practicable,
utility readings shall be taken on the day prior to the Closing, and Seller
shall bear the charges for utility services based on such reading and Purchaser
shall bear charges for all such utility services thereafter.

 

(d)         Income from and charges under the Service
Contracts not terminated at Closing and any transferable permits and licenses
necessary for the operation of the Property.

 

(e)          All prepaid rents.

 

(f)            Other income and expenses of operation
and similar items to the extent each of the same is customarily prorated
between buyers and sellers of real property in Denver, Colorado.

 

 

8.02.                        Any item of income or expense which should be
apportioned and which is not or cannot be apportioned as of the Adjustment Date
shall be reasonably estimated by Seller at Closing (for purposes of the Closing
Statement) and then duly apportioned and prorated as soon as determined.  Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing
in an amount equal to all then unpaid leasing commissions due in respect of the
leases at the Property.

 

8.03.                        Seller shall pay for the cost of the Title Policy
(other than for extended coverage and endorsements), all real property transfer
taxes due upon recordation of the deed, Seller’s attorney’s fees, one-half of
the cost of Survey and one-half of any fees charged by Escrow Agent for its
services hereunder.  Purchaser shall be
responsible for the payment of the state documentary fee, recording fees for
the deed, Purchaser’s attorneys fee, the cost of extended coverage and all
endorsements issued in connection with the Title Policy (except those insuring
over Unpermitted Exceptions, but only to the extent Seller has agreed in
writing after the date hereof to pay for the same) and one-half of any fees charged
by Escrow Agent for its services hereunder and for one-half of the cost of
Survey.  Any other closing cost not
designated hereunder shall be payable per local custom.

 

8.04.                        In the event of any reduction in the assessed
valuation of the Real Property for any fiscal year, the net amount of any tax
savings, after deduction of reasonable expenses and tax service fees shall (a) with
respect to fiscal years (for real estate taxes) ending prior to the fiscal year
in which the Closing Date shall occur, be payable to Seller, (b) with
respect to the fiscal year (for real estate taxes) in which the Closing Date
shall occur, be adjusted between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing Date so
that the amount of such savings with respect to the period up to (and including)
the Closing Date shall be payable to Seller and the remaining amount shall be
payable to Purchaser and (c) with respect to all fiscal years after the
fiscal year in which the Closing Date shall occur, be payable to Purchaser.
Notwithstanding the foregoing Purchaser shall not adjust or settle any such
protest or proceeding with respect to such fiscal years ending prior to the
fiscal year in which the Closing Date shall occur without Seller’s prior
written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Any such protest or proceeding which relates in whole or in part to any period
after the Closing Date shall be prosecuted by Purchaser. Any such protest or
proceeding which relates in whole or in part to periods prior to the Closing
Date may be prosecuted by Seller provided any settlement of the same shall be
subject to the consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.

 

8.05.                        Any post-closing adjustments due either party shall be
promptly made. Seller shall pay over to Purchaser any amounts received by it
following the Closing in respect of the Property to which Purchaser is entitled
not more than ten (10) days from the date received.

 

8.06.                        All refundable deposits held by Seller pursuant to the
terms of the Leases shall, together with accrued interest thereon (but only (i) if
such interest is required by law and/or the Leases to be paid to tenant under
any such Leases or (ii) if the Leases require such interest to become a
part of such security deposit), if any, be transferred to Purchaser as a credit
against the Purchase Price at Closing, and thereafter Purchaser shall indemnify
Seller from and against any and all claims, by tenants, their successors and
assigns for such refundable deposits and interest

 

 

thereon credited to Purchaser at Closing.  All accrued interest under said security
deposits, if any, which is not required to be transferred to Purchaser by the
immediately preceding sentence shall be for Seller’s account.

 

8.07.                        The provisions of this Article 8 shall survive
the Closing until the date which is twelve (12) months from the date thereof,
except for Sections 8.06, which shall survive indefinitely.

 

9.                                       Closing Documents.

11.                                 Damage to Property; Taking.

 

11.01.                  If, prior to the Closing, the Property or any part thereof (i) is
damaged by casualty for which in the judgment of a licensed architect or
Engineer selected by Seller with reasonable approval by Purchaser the cost of
repair does not exceed, in the aggregate, one million and No/100ths Dollars
($1,000,000.00), the Closing shall proceed
without regard to such damage and Seller shall assign to Purchaser all
insurance proceeds, and claims of Seller thereto, attributable to the Property
arising from the casualty, together with the proceeds of any rent loss
insurance allocable to periods after the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall
receive a credit against the Purchase Price equal to the positive difference,
if any, of (a) the expected cost of such repair as determined above less (b) the
amount of insurance proceeds expected to be realized (other than rent loss
insurance proceeds for periods after the Closing Date which shall be assigned
to Purchaser as described above) as a result of such casualty, taking into
account that (x) deductibles, (y) coinsurance requirements and (z) damage
from such casualty, the cost of repairing of which is not covered by existing
insurance, will reduce the amount of insurance proceeds expected to be
realized, all as reasonably determined by Seller, subject to the reasonable
approval of Purchaser.  Purchaser’s
credit described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be reduced by the
reasonable cost of repairs incurred by Seller in order to shore up any
dangerous condition at the Property.  If,
prior to the Closing, there has been any taking by eminent domain, but there
has been no Material Taking (as defined below), the Closing shall proceed
without regard to any such taking by eminent domain and Seller shall pay over
and assign to Purchaser all awards recovered or recoverable on account of such
taking.

 

11.02.                  If the Property or any part thereof (i) is damaged by casualty for
which in the judgment of a licensed architect or Engineer selected by Seller
with reasonable approval by Purchaser the cost of repair is in excess of one
million and No/100ths Dollars ($1,000,000.00), or
(ii) is taken by eminent domain prior to the Closing Date which materially
and adversely affects the then current use or value of the Property, including
but not limited to a materially adverse change in access to the Property or the
taking of all or any material part of the building located at the Property (a “Material
Taking”), either Seller or Purchaser may elect to terminate this

 

 

Agreement by sending written notice to the other party within thirty
(30) days of learning of the same, and the Closing Date shall be extended, if
necessary, to provide Purchaser or Seller with a full thirty (30) days to make
such determination.  Upon such
termination, the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and Purchaser
shall destroy or return or cause to be returned to Seller all unreturned
Property Materials received by Purchaser and its agents and representatives
from Seller and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder
except as otherwise expressly provided herein. 
If neither party terminates this Agreement pursuant to the preceding
sentence, the Closing shall proceed without regard to such damage, taking or
notice of taking, as the case may be, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser all
insurance proceeds, and claims of Seller thereto, attributable to the Property
arising from the casualty, together with the proceeds of any rent loss
insurance allocable to periods after the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall
receive a credit against the Purchase Price equal to the deductible amount
and/or coinsurance amount under the applicable insurance policy, or Seller
shall pay over and assign to Purchaser all awards recovered or recoverable on
account of such taking, as the case may be. 
If neither party terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Article 11,
then Seller shall not compromise, settle, or adjust any claims to such
proceeds, or awards, without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent
shall not unreasonably be withheld.

 

11.03.                  If and to the extent that Seller is required in this Article 11 to
assign and transfer to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title, and interest in
and to insurance proceeds, and claims of Seller thereto, attributable to the
Property arising from the casualty, together with the proceeds of any rent loss
insurance allocable to periods after the Closing Date Seller shall, at the
election of Seller and at Purchaser’s expense, use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause its insurance carriers to either (i) pay any such unpaid
proceeds and insurance to Purchaser and for Purchaser’s benefit or (ii) pay
any such unpaid proceeds and insurance to Seller, in which case Seller shall
promptly remit the same to Purchaser  The
provisions of this Section 11.03 shall survive the Closing.

 

12.                                 Remedies.

 

12.01.                  In the event the transaction contemplated by this Agreement does not
close solely as a consequence of default by Purchaser, the Escrow Agent shall
deliver the Deposit to Seller and Seller shall retain the Deposit as liquidated
damages.  The parties have agreed that
Seller’s actual damages, in the event of a default by Purchaser, would be
extremely difficult or impracticable to determine.  THEREFORE, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE
AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT HAS BEEN AGREED UPON AS THE PARTIES’ BEST, AND THEY
BELIEVE REASONABLE, ESTIMATE OF SELLER’S DAMAGES AND AS SELLER’S SOLE AND
EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST PURCHASER, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN THE EVENT OF A
DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT ON THE PART OF PURCHASER.  THE PARTIES FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE FOREGOING
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES ARE INTENDED NOT AS A PENALTY, BUT AS FULL LIQUIDATED
DAMAGES IN THE EVENT OF PURCHASER’S DEFAULT.

 

12.02.                  In the event that the Closing does not occur solely as a result of a
default on the part of Seller hereunder, Purchaser may, as its sole and
exclusive remedy, either

 

 

(a) terminate this Agreement in which event the Deposit shall
immediately be returned to Purchaser, or (b) specifically enforce the
terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
Purchaser shall not be entitled to any other remedy for damages or
otherwise which it may have at law or in equity as a consequence of such
default; provided, however, in the event the remedy of specific performance is
not available to Purchaser due to willful act of Seller, Seller shall reimburse
Purchaser for Purchaser’s reasonable actual, out of pocket, third-party
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by it under the
Agreement, not to exceed $100,000.00 in the aggregate.  Prior to any reimbursement by Seller to
Purchaser described in the immediately preceding sentence, Purchaser shall
provide Seller with reasonable evidence of the incurrence and payment of any
such out of pocket expense by Purchaser.

 

12.03.                  The provisions of this Article 12 shall not limit or
restrict Purchaser or Seller from seeking to enforce or otherwise seeking
damages relating to any provisions of this Agreement which expressly survive
the termination of this Agreement, Purchaser’s indemnity of Seller pursuant to Section 2.01
above, or the mutual indemnities set forth in Article 6 above.

 

13.                                 Escrow.

 

13.01.                  The Deposit shall be held in escrow by Escrow Agent in an interest
bearing account until disbursed as herein provided.  Any interest accrued on the Deposit shall be
paid to whichever party is entitled to the Deposit in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement. The Deposit shall be held and disbursed by Escrow
Agent in the following manner:

 

(a)          to Seller at the Closing upon
consummation of the Closing; or

 

(b)         to Seller upon receipt by Escrow Agent of
written demand therefor, stating (i) that Purchaser has defaulted in the
performance of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and the facts and
circumstances underlying such default or (ii) that Seller is otherwise
entitled to the Deposit pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided,
however, that Escrow Agent shall not honor such demand until at least ten (10) days
after it has sent a copy of such demand to Purchaser, nor thereafter, if Escrow
Agent shall have received written notice of objection from Purchaser in
accordance with the provisions of Section 13.02; or

 

(c)          to Purchaser upon receipt of written
demand therefor, stating that either (i) this Agreement has been
terminated pursuant to a provision hereof and certifying the basis for such
termination, or (ii) Seller shall have defaulted in performance of Seller’s
obligations under this Agreement and the facts and circumstances underlying
such default or that Purchaser is otherwise entitled to the Deposit under the
provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that Escrow Agent shall not
honor such demand until at least ten (10) days after it has sent a copy of
such demand to Seller, nor thereafter if Escrow Agent shall have received written
notice of objection from Seller in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.02.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Escrow
Agent receives a written demand from Purchaser for the return of the Deposit on
or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then Escrow Agent shall
immediately send notice thereof to Seller and comply with said demand
notwithstanding any contrary instruction Escrow Agent may receive from Seller.

 

 

13.02.                  Upon receipt of written demand for the Deposit by
Purchaser or Seller pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of Section 13.01
(other than a demand from Purchaser on or before expiration of the Due
Diligence Period, as provided above), Escrow Agent shall promptly send a copy
thereof to the other party.  The other
party shall have the right to object to the delivery of the Deposit by sending
written notice of such objection to Escrow Agent within the greater of five (5) days
or three (3) business days after Escrow Agent delivers a copy of the
written demand to the objecting party but not thereafter.  Such notice shall set forth the basis for
objecting to the delivery of the Deposit. 
Upon receipt of such notice, Escrow Agent shall promptly send a copy
thereof to the party who made the written demand.

 

13.03.                  In the event of any dispute between the parties
regarding the Deposit, Escrow Agent shall disregard all instructions received
and at its option either (i) hold the Deposit until the dispute is
mutually resolved and Escrow Agent is advised of fact in writing by both Seller
and Purchaser, or Escrow Agent is otherwise instructed by a final
non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) deposit
the Deposit into a court of competent jurisdiction (whereupon Escrow Agent
shall be released and relieved of any and all liability and obligations
hereunder from and after the date of such deposit).

 

13.04.                  In the event Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its
duties or rights hereunder or shall receive conflicting instructions, claims or
demands from the parties hereto, or instructions which conflict with any of the
provisions of this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall be entitled (but not
obligated) to refrain from taking any action other than to keep safely the
Deposit until Escrow Agent shall be instructed otherwise in writing signed by
both Seller and Purchaser, or by final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction.

 

13.05.                  Escrow Agent may rely upon, and shall be protected in
acting or refraining from acting upon, any written notice, instruction or
request furnished to it hereunder and believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper party or parties, provided that any
modification of this Article 13 shall be signed by Escrow Agent, Purchaser
and Seller.

 

13.06.                  Seller and Purchaser shall jointly and severally hold
Escrow Agent harmless against any loss, damage, liability or expense incurred
by Escrow Agent not caused by its willful misconduct or gross negligence, arising
out of or in connection with its entering into this Agreement and the carrying
out of its duties hereunder, including the reasonable costs and expenses of
defending itself against any claim of liability or participating in any legal
proceeding.  Escrow Agent may consult
with counsel of its choice, and shall have full and complete authorization and
protection for any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and
in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.

 

13.07.                  Escrow Agent may resign at will and be discharged from
its duties or obligations hereunder by giving notice in writing of such
resignation specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect;
provided, however, that (i) prior to such resignation a substitute escrow
agent is approved in writing by Seller and Purchaser, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or (ii) Escrow Agent shall deposit
the Deposit with a court of 

 

 

competent jurisdiction.  After such resignation, Escrow Agent shall
have no further duties or liability hereunder.

 

13.08.                  Purchaser and Seller, together, shall have the right
to terminate the appointment of Escrow Agent hereunder by giving to it notice
of such termination, specifying the date upon which such termination shall take
effect and designating a replacement escrow agent, who shall sign a counterpart
of this Agreement.  Upon demand of such
successor escrow agent, the Deposit shall be turned over and delivered to such
successor escrow agent, who shall thereupon be bound by all of the provisions
hereof.

 

13.09.                  Seller and Purchaser shall be jointly and severally
responsible for the reimbursement to Escrow Agent of all out-of-pocket
expenses, disbursements and advances (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)
incurred or made by Escrow Agent in connection with the carrying out of its
duties hereunder.

 

13.10.                  Escrow Agent’s agreements and obligations hereunder

obligations hereunder upon final payment of the Deposit in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.

15.15.                  Notwithstanding the prohibitions
against assignment contained in Section 15.03, Purchaser may consummate
the acquisition of the Property from Seller as part of a so-called like kind
exchange (an “Exchange”) qualifying under §1031 of the Code, provided

shall not be required to take an assignment of the purchase and sale agreement
for the relinquished or replacement property or be required to acquire or hold
title to any real property for purposes of consummating an exchange desired by

identify Seller; provided, however, Seller and Purchaser each may, without the
consent of the other party hereto, issue any Release to its affiliates, agents,

ARTICLE 2

 

AGREEMENT OF
PURCHASE AND SALE; PURCHASE PRICE

 

2.1                  Agreement
of Purchase and Sale. 
Seller agrees to sell, transfer, assign and convey to Buyer, and Buyer
agrees to purchase, accept and assume subject to the terms and conditions
stated herein, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Property.

 

2.2                  Purchase
Price.  Buyer shall
pay Seller the purchase price of FORTY NINE MILLION DOLLARS ($49,000,000.00) (“Purchase Price”) at Closing in cash or
other immediately available federal funds. 
The Purchase Price and such other funds as may be necessary to pay Buyer’s
expenses hereunder, subject to closing adjustments, shall be deposited with the
Escrow Agent no later than one (1) business day prior to the Closing Date
in accordance

 

7

 

with this
Agreement and paid to Seller upon satisfaction of all conditions precedent to
the Closing as described herein.

 

2.3                  Deposits;
Designation of Reporting Person & Contract Consideration.

 

2.3.1       Initial Deposit. Within two (2) business
days after the Effective Date (the “Deposit Date”),
Buyer shall deposit via wire transfer the sum of ONE MILLION DOLLARS
($1,000,000.00) in immediately available U.S. funds as a deposit (the “Initial Deposit”)
with Escrow Agent whose address is as indicated in Section 10.3,
below.  If Buyer fails to make the
Initial Deposit on or before 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the Deposit Date,
then this Agreement shall terminate and shall be of no further force and effect
and the parties shall have no further obligations to one another except to the
extent expressly stated otherwise herein.

 

2.3.2       Additional Deposit.  Unless Buyer terminates this Agreement before
the expiration of the Due Diligence Period pursuant to Section 3,
below, then by 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the last day of the Due Diligence
Period, Buyer shall deposit with Escrow Agent via wire transfer an additional
ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00) (the “Additional
Deposit”) in immediately available funds.  Once made, the Initial Deposit and the
Additional Deposit (collectively, the “Deposit’) shall
be non-refundable in all instances except (a) if the Closing fails to
occur solely as a result of a material default by Seller hereunder that is not
cured within all applicable notice and cure periods, (b) if the Closing
fails to occur solely as a result of the failure of a condition precedent in
Buyer Conditions Precedent (set forth in Section 9.3 hereof)
through no fault of Buyer, and (c) as otherwise expressly stated otherwise
in this Agreement.  If Buyer fails to
make the Additional Deposit on or before 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the
last day of the Due Diligence Period, then this Agreement shall terminate and
shall be of no further force and effect and the parties shall have no further
obligations to one another except to the extent expressly stated otherwise
herein.

 

2.3.3       Investment of Deposit.  If and when made, each portion of the Deposit
shall be held by Escrow Agent in accordance with the following.   The Escrow Agent shall invest the amount in
escrow, including without limitation the Deposit, in accounts which are
federally insured or which invest solely in government securities and shall be
applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Interest earned on the Deposit shall be
considered part of the Deposit and shall be deemed to have been earned by, and
constitute income of, Buyer.

 

2.3.4       Designation
of Reporting Person. 
In order to assure compliance with the requirements of Section 6045
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (for purposes of this Section 2.3.4,
the “Code”), and any related
reporting requirements of the Code, Seller and Buyer hereby designate Escrow
Agent as the person to be responsible for all information reporting under Section 6045(e) of
the Code (the “Reporting Person”).  In connection with the foregoing appointment,
Seller and Buyer hereby agree: (a) to provide to the Reporting Person all
information and certifications regarding such party, as reasonably requested by
the Reporting Person or otherwise required to be provided by a party to the
transaction described herein under Section 6045 of the Code; and (b) to
provide to the Reporting Person such party’s taxpayer identification number and
a statement (on Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or an acceptable
substitute form, or on any other form the applicable current or future Code

 

8

 

sections
and regulations might require and/or any form requested by the Reporting
Person), signed under penalties of perjury, stating that the taxpayer
identification number supplied by such party to the Reporting Person is
correct.  Each party hereto agrees to
retain this Agreement for not less than four years from the end of the calendar
year in which the Closing occurred, and to produce it to the Internal Revenue
Service upon a valid request therefor.

 

2.3.5       Contract Consideration.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to
the contrary, in any event where the Deposit, or any part thereof, is to be
returned to Buyer, ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00) thereof shall be paid by
Escrow Agent to Seller as consideration for the rights and privileges granted
to Buyer herein thus making this Agreement the valid and binding obligation of
Buyer and Seller even though Buyer may have certain unilateral termination
rights during certain periods under this Agreement.

 

2.4                  General
Assumption.  As
additional consideration for the purchase and sale of the Property, at Closing
Buyer will: (a) assume and perform (i) all of the covenants and
obligations of Seller, Seller’s predecessors in title and Seller’s Affiliates
pursuant to the Leases and Approved Contracts (including, without limitation,
those relating to any Tenant Deposits) which arise on or after the Closing
Date, and (ii) all obligations under the Leases and Approved Contracts
relating to the physical and environmental condition of the Property arising on

any off-site improvements that were a condition of approval of the subdivision
map(s) affecting the Property; provided, however, that such
off-site improvements shall not cost more than $100,000; and (b) assume
and agree to discharge, perform and comply with each and every liability, duty,
covenant, debt or obligation of Seller or any of its Affiliates resulting from,
arising out of, or in any way related to any Licenses and Permits and arising
on or after the Closing Date.  By closing
under this Agreement, Buyer hereby indemnifies, defends, and holds Seller,
Seller’s Affiliates and their respective partners, members, shareholders,
officers, directors, managers, employees and agents harmless from and against
any and all claims, liens, damages, demands, causes of action, liabilities,
lawsuits, judgments, losses, costs and expenses (including but not limited to
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) asserted against or incurred by Seller
and arising out of the failure of Buyer to perform its obligations pursuant to
this Section 2.4.  The
provisions of this Section 2.4 shall survive the Closing.

third parties other than Seller.  Buyer
further acknowledges and agrees that (a) except as specifically set forth
in this Agreement, neither Seller nor any of Seller’s respective agents,

representation regarding the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Due
Diligence Items or the source(s), and (b) Seller has not undertaken any
independent investigation as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Due
Diligence Items, and Seller is providing the Due Diligence Items or making the
Due Diligence Items available to Buyer solely as an accommodation to Buyer.  Buyer acknowledges that the Due Diligence
Items are subject to the confidentiality provisions of Section 3.5
below.

 

3.2.3       Excluded Materials.  Notwithstanding any terms to the contrary in
this Agreement, (a) Seller shall not be obligated or otherwise required to
furnish or make available to Buyer any of the following (collectively, “Excluded Materials”):  (i) any appraisals or other economic
evaluations of, or projections with respect to, all or any portion of the

to the operation of the Property, and (iv) any information which is
subject to any other confidentiality obligations; (b) Due Diligence Items
shall not include any Excluded Materials; and (c) Seller shall have no
obligation or liability of any kind to Buyer as a result of Seller not
furnishing or making available to Buyer the Excluded Materials.

 

3.3                  Site
Visits.  During the
pendency of this Agreement, Buyer and its Licensee Parties shall have
reasonable access to the Property at agreed upon times for agreed upon purposes
on at least one (1) business day prior notice to Seller.  Such notice shall describe the scope of the
Due Diligence Buyer intends to conduct during Buyer’s access to the
Property.  Seller shall have the right to
have a representative present during any visits to or inspections of the
Property or any meetings or discussions with any Tenant by Buyer or any
Licensee Parties or any Governmental Entity. 
Buyer will conduct its Due Diligence in a manner so as to minimize, to
the extent reasonably possible to do so, any interference with the operations
and occupancy of the Property and to minimize, to the extent reasonably
possible to do so, any disturbance to Tenants. 
Buyer will not enter the Property or contact any leasing agents or the
Property Manager of the Property or any Governmental Entity without Seller’s
prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed.  Neither Buyer nor any Licensee
Parties may contact any Tenants or make any inquiries of such Tenants including,
without limitation, those which in any way relate to the Property, without
Seller’s prior written consent which consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole
and absolute discretion.  In the event
Buyer desires to conduct any physically intrusive Due Diligence, such as
sampling of soils, other media, building materials, or the like, Buyer will
identify in writing exactly what procedures Buyer desires to perform and
request Seller’s express written consent. 
Seller may withhold or condition consent to any physically intrusive Due
Diligence in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion.  Upon receipt of Seller’s written consent,
Buyer and all Licensee Parties shall, in performing such Due Diligence, comply
with any agreed upon procedures and with any and all Laws including, without
limitation, any Environmental Laws.

 

3.4                  Insurance
Requirements. 
As a condition precedent to any entry onto the Property by Buyer or any
Licensee Parties prior to the Closing, Buyer or any such Licensee Parties shall
carry worker’s compensation insurance in compliance with applicable law,
liability insurance covering bodily injury, property damage, with a combined
single limit of $2,000,000, and automobile liability insurance in an amount not
less than $1,000,000.00 covering all automobile and equipment owners and/or
operated by Buyer and any Licensee Parties in connection with the license
granted herein.  The liability policies
described herein shall name Seller and those reasonably designated by Seller as
additional insured.  All such insurance
shall: (a) be primary and no insurance of Seller or any of the additional
insured shall be called upon to contribute to a loss and (b) not be
cancelled or materially modified without first giving Seller thirty (30) days’
advance written notice of cancellation or material modification.  Before entering the Property pursuant to this
Section 3.4, Buyer shall deliver copies of the policies or
certificates of insurance issued by the insurance carrier(s) to Seller
demonstrating compliance with the terms of this Section.  In the event that, during the Due Diligence
Period or at any other time during the pendency of this Agreement that Buyer or
any Licensee Parties are entering the Property, Buyer or any Licensee Parties
fail to procure or maintain the insurance requirements as set forth in this

 

11

 

Section or
such insurance is modified such that it does not provide coverage to Seller and
its additional insured as required herein neither Buyer nor any Licensee
Parties shall be permitted to enter the Property and if Buyer does not cure
such failure within three (3) days of notice thereof from Seller, then
Seller shall thereafter have the right to terminate this Agreement upon
twenty-four (24) hours written notice to Buyer whereupon Buyer shall
immediately cease all operations on the Property and promptly remove all
Licensee Parties from the Property (unless the subject insurance requirements
are satisfied and evidence thereof delivered to Seller before the expiration of
said twenty-four (24) hour notice).

 

3.5                  Restoration;
No Liens. 
Buyer shall promptly pay when due the costs of all entry and inspections
and examinations done with regard to the Property and repair and/or restore the
Property to the condition in which the same were found before any such entry
upon the Property and inspection or examination was undertaken.  Buyer shall not permit any mechanics’ or
other liens to be filed against the Property as a result of labor or materials
furnished in connection with its Due Diligence. 
If any such lien is filed against the Property as a result of the
activities of Buyer or any Licensee Parties, then within ten (10) days
after receipt of written demand from Seller or any other notice of such lien,
Buyer shall either cause the same to be discharged of record by payment of the
claim or posting of a bond, or will take such other action as may be reasonably
acceptable to protect Seller, Seller’s Affiliates and the Property from any
loss or damage arising from such lien. 
In the event Buyer fails to release any lien by payment, bond or
otherwise as set forth herein, Seller may pay such amounts necessary to cause
the release of the lien and Buyer shall promptly reimburse Seller one hundred
percent (100%) of the amount so paid, in addition to Seller’s other costs
(including, but not limited to attorneys’ fees) necessary to discharge the
lien(s)).  Buyer’s obligations under this
Section 3.5 shall expressly survive the Closing or, if the purchase
and sale is not consummated, any termination of this Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 3.5
shall survive the Closing or, if the purchase and sale is not consummated, any
termination of this Agreement.

 

3.6                  Due
Diligence Indemnity. 
Buyer shall defend, protect, indemnify, and hold harmless Seller, Seller’s
Affiliates and their respective partners, shareholders, members, officers,
directors, employees and agents, as applicable, and the Property Manager from
and against all Losses (whether arising out of injury or death to persons or
damage to the Property or otherwise) including, but not limited to, costs of
remediation, restoration and other similar activities, mechanic’s and
materialmen’s liens and attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in connection with
Buyer’s Due Diligence, Buyer’s breach of its obligations under Section 3.7
or Buyer’s or any Licensee Parties’ entry upon the Property; provided, however,
that Buyer shall have no obligations under this Section 3.6 to the
extent the Losses are caused solely by the negligence or willful misconduct of
Seller, Seller’s Affiliates, Seller’s partners, shareholders, members,
officers, directors, employees and agents, as applicable, and/or the Property
Manager or result from the mere discovery by Buyer of pre-existing conditions
at the Property and the Buyer promptly notifies Seller in writing of such
discovery.  The provisions of this Section 3.6
shall survive the Closing or, if the purchase and sale is not consummated, any
termination of this Agreement.

 

3.7                  Confidentiality.  Buyer agrees that any information
obtained by Buyer or its Affiliates or their respective attorneys, partners,
accountants, brokers, property

 

12

 

management companies, third party
consultants, lenders or investors (collectively, for purposes of this Section 3.7,
the “Permitted Outside Parties”)
in the conduct of its Due Diligence shall be treated as confidential pursuant
to Section 10.11 of this Agreement and shall be used only to
evaluate the acquisition of the Property from Seller.  Buyer further agrees that within its
organization, or as to the Permitted Outside Parties, the Due Diligence Items
and all other information obtained by Buyer pursuant to its Due Diligence will
be disclosed and exhibited only to those persons within Buyer’s organization or
to those Permitted Outside Parties who are involved in determining the
feasibility of Buyer’s acquisition of the Property.  Buyer further acknowledges that the Due
Diligence Items, all information relating to the leasing arrangements between
Seller and any Tenant or prospective tenants, and all other information
obtained by Buyer pursuant to its Due Diligence are proprietary and
confidential in nature.  Buyer agrees not
to divulge the contents of such Due Diligence Items or any other information
except in strict accordance with this Section 3.7 and Section 10.11
of this Agreement.  In permitting Buyer
and the Permitted Outside Parties to review the Due Diligence Items and other
information to assist Buyer, Seller has not waived any privilege or claim of
confidentiality with respect thereto, and no third party benefits or
relationships of any kind, either express or implied, have been offered,
intended or created by Seller and any such claims are expressly rejected by
Seller and waived by Buyer and the Permitted Outside Parties, for whom, by its
execution of this Agreement, Buyer is acting as an agent with regard to such
waiver.  The provisions of this Section 3.7
shall survive the Closing or, if the purchase and sale is not consummated, any
termination of this Agreement.

 

3.8                  Due
Diligence Period. 
Except as set forth in Section 2.3.1 hereof, unless Buyer
delivers to Seller and Escrow Agent written notice terminating this Agreement
on or before the end of the Due Diligence Period which notice may be for any
reason, or no reason, (the “Disapproval Notice”),
this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.  If Buyer fails to give Seller the Disapproval
Notice, then Buyer shall be deemed to have approved all of the matters described
in Sections 3.1 and 3.2. 
If the Agreement is terminated hereunder, then Buyer shall be entitled
to the immediate return of the Initial Deposit and Buyer shall return all Due
Diligence Items in its possession to Seller and provide to Seller, promptly
after receipt of a request from Seller, originals of any third party reports,
studies and appraisals relating to the Property in its possession, without
representation or warranty and at no cost to Seller.  The foregoing obligation shall survive any termination
of this Agreement.  Subject to the terms
of this Agreement, provided that Buyer has not delivered the Disapproval
Notice, Buyer, after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, may continue
to conduct further physical Due Diligence or other examinations, inspections,
tests, studies and investigations regarding the Property; provided, however,
that except as otherwise expressly provided in Sections 5.1 and 10.2.2,
in no event shall Buyer have any right to terminate or otherwise modify its
obligations hereunder after the end of the Due Diligence Period as a result of
any such further Due Diligence or other examinations, inspections, tests,
studies or investigations regarding the Property, and the provisions of this Article 3,
including, without limitation, the indemnification provisions, shall continue
to apply.

 

3.9                  Delivery of Buyer’s Due Diligence Materials.  Buyer agrees that if Buyer
terminates this Agreement for any reason permitted hereunder, including Buyer’s
disapproval of its Due Diligence within the Due Diligence Period, then Buyer
shall, at Seller’s request and at no cost to Seller, assign to Seller all of
its rights, interest and title to copies of all third party drafts and final
surveys, environmental site assessments, appraisals, examinations,

 

13

 

inspections,
tests, studies and investigations of the Property or any other similar
documents or materials applicable to the Property, obtained by Buyer during the
Due Diligence Period (collectively, “Buyer’s Due Diligence
Materials”).  Buyer’s
obligations under this Section shall expressly survive the termination
and/or expiration of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE 4

 

TITLE, SURVEY &
CONTRACTS

 

4.1                  Title
to Real Property. 
Buyer shall obtain (a) a preliminary report or commitment to issue
an owner’s policy of title insurance with respect to the Property issued by the
Title Company (the “Title Commitment”),
and (b) copies of all recorded documents referred to on Schedule B of the
Title Commitment as exceptions to coverage (the “Title Documents”). 
Buyer shall instruct Escrow Agent to deliver a copy of the Title
Commitment and the Title Documents to Seller concurrent with its delivery of
the same to Buyer.  Seller agrees to
deliver any preliminary reports, title commitments and Surveys in its
possession to the extent the same exist; provided, however, that the delivery
of such materials shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 3.2.2,
above.

 

4.2                  Certain
Exceptions to Title. 
Buyer shall have the right to object in writing to any title matters
that are not Permitted Exceptions and that are disclosed in the Title
Commitment (herein collectively called “Liens”)
on or before the second (2nd) day prior to the
expiration of the Due Diligence Period. 
Buyer’s failure to disapprove the Liens in writing within such period
shall constitute Buyer’s approval of all such Liens.  All such Liens which are timely objected to
by Buyer shall be herein collectively called the “Title Objections”. 
Seller, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect (but shall not be
obligated) to remove or cause to be removed, or insured over, at its expense,
any Title Objections, and shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the
Closing for the purpose of such removal, which removal will be deemed effected
by, among other things, the issuance of title insurance reasonably acceptable
to Buyer eliminating or insuring against the effect of the Title
Objections.  Seller shall notify Buyer in
writing no later than the day prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence
Period (the “Title Cure Period”), whether
Seller elects to remove the same.  If
Seller is unable to remove or endorse over any Title Objections prior to the
expiration of the Title Cure Period, or if Seller elects not to remove one or
more Title Objections by the expiration of the Title Cure Period, Buyer may
elect, as its sole and exclusive remedy therefore, to either (a) terminate
this Agreement on or before the end of the Due Diligence Period and Buyer shall
be entitled to the immediate return of the Initial Deposit and, thereafter, the
parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for those
obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, or (b) waive,
in writing, such Title Objections, in which event such Title Objections shall
be deemed additional “Permitted Exceptions” and the Closing shall occur as
herein provided without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase
Price.  If before the end of the Due
Diligence Period, Buyer elects to proceed with the transaction contemplated
herein, then Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to waive those Title
Objections Seller elected not to remove or endorse over and its right to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.2.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall
be obligated at Closing to cause the release of the Liens of any financing
obtained by Seller which is secured by the Property.

 

14

 

4.3                  Additional
Exceptions. 
In the event the Title Commitment is amended or updated after the
expiration of the Due Diligence Period and before the Closing (each, a “Title  Commitment
Update”), Buyer shall furnish Seller with a written statement of
approval or objections to any matter first raised in a Title Commitment Update
that affects title to the Real Property and that was not caused by Buyer or any
Licensee Parties within two (2) business days after its receipt of such
Title Commitment Update together with a legible copy of each new exception
raised therein (each, a “Title  Commitment Update Review Period”).  Should Buyer fail to notify Seller in writing
of any objections to any matter first disclosed in a Title Commitment Update
prior to the expiration of the applicable Title Commitment Update Review
Period, as applicable, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved such matters
whereupon they shall become Permitted Exceptions. If, however, Buyer objects to
such new exception, then Seller shall have until 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on
the fifth (5th) business day after Seller’s receipt of Buyer’s written objection in which
to notify Buyer, in Seller’s sole discretion, either (a) that Seller will
remove the new disapproved exception(s) prior to the Close of Escrow and,
thereafter, Seller shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing
for the purpose of such removal, which removal will be deemed effected by,
among other things, the issuance of title insurance reasonably acceptable to
Buyer eliminating or insuring against the effect of the Title Objections, or (b) that
Seller will not remove the new disapproved exception(s).  If Seller does not elect to do either (a) or
(b), such silence shall be conclusively deemed to constitute Seller’s election
not to remove any new exception(s) disapproved by Buyer.  If Seller elects not to remove any new
disapproved exception(s), whether by giving notice thereof or by failing to
give notice, then Buyer shall have until 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the
fifth (5th) business day after Seller’s election (or deemed election) not to cure the
disapproved exception in which to elect (y) to terminate this Agreement by
written notice to Seller and Escrow Holder or (z) to waive in writing
Buyer’s previous disapproval of (and thereby accept) any items that Seller does
not elect to remove.  Buyer’s failure to
terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice of such election on or
before 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the fifth (5th) business
day after Seller’s election or deemed election not to remove the new
disapproved exception shall be deemed to constitute Buyer’s irrevocable
election to waive Buyer’s previous disapproval whereupon the disapproved
exception shall become a Permitted Exception. 
If, however, Buyer does elect to terminate this Agreement, then this
Agreement shall so terminate, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and
neither party shall have any further obligations to the other hereunder except
to the extent any such obligation expressly survives the termination of this
Agreement.

 

4.4                  Survey Objections.  Buyer shall have the right to obtain a new
survey or an update of any survey provided by Seller (the “Survey”)
at its sole cost and expense.  Promptly
upon receipt of the Survey, Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, shall deliver
a copy to Seller and to Escrow Agent.  No
later than the second (2nd) day prior to the expiration of
the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall have the right to notify Seller, in
writing, of any matters disclosed on the Survey that are not Permitted
Exceptions and that affect Buyer’s title to the Property.  Buyer’s failure to obtain the Survey or
disapprove any matters disclosed by the Survey on or before such time shall
constitute Buyer’s approval of the matters disclosed by the Survey or matters
that would have been disclosed had Buyer obtained a Survey.  All such matters which are timely objected to
by Buyer shall be herein collectively called the “Survey
Objections”.  Seller, in its
sole and absolute discretion, may no later than the day prior to the expiration
of the Due Diligence Period (the “Survey Cure Period”),
elect to remove or cause to be removed, or insured over, at its expense, any
Survey Objections, and shall be entitled to a reasonable

 

15

 

adjournment
of the Closing for the purpose of such removal, which removal will be deemed
effected by, among other things, the issuance of title insurance reasonably
acceptable to Buyer eliminating or insuring against the effect of the Survey
Objections.  Seller shall notify Buyer in
writing of such election within the Survey Cure Period.  If Seller is unable to cure or endorse over
any Survey Objections prior to the expiration of the Survey Cure Period, or if
Seller elects not to remove one or more Survey Objections, Buyer may elect, as
its sole and exclusive remedy therefore, to either (a) terminate this
Agreement by giving written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent on or before the
end of the Due Diligence Period and Buyer shall be entitled to the immediate
return of the Deposit and, thereafter, the parties shall have no further rights
or obligations hereunder except for those obligations which expressly survive
the termination of this Agreement, or (b) waive, in writing, such Survey
Objections, in which event the Closing shall occur as herein provided without
any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price.  If before the end of the Due Diligence
Period, Buyer elects to proceed with the transaction contemplated herein, then
Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to waive those Survey Objections Seller
elected not to cure and its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.4.

 

4.5                  Title
Insurance. 
At Closing, the Title Company shall issue to Buyer or be irrevocably
committed to issue to Buyer a CLTA standard coverage form title policy (the “Title Policy”) in the amount of the
Purchase Price, insuring that fee simple title to the Land is vested in Buyer
subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. 
Buyer shall be entitled to request that the Title Company provide ALTA
extended coverage and/or such endorsements (or amendments) to the Title Policy
as Buyer may reasonably require and/or increased liability as Buyer may
reasonably require, provided that the same shall (a) be at no cost to
Seller, (b) impose no additional liability on Seller, (c) not be a
condition to the Closing and, accordingly, if Buyer is unable to obtain any of
the foregoing, Buyer shall nevertheless be obligated to proceed to close the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement without reduction of or set off
against the Purchase Price, and (d) the Closing shall not be delayed as a
result of Buyer’s request.

 

4.6                  Contracts. 
On or before the second (2nd) day
prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall have the right
to disapprove, by written notice to Seller, any of the Contracts that are not
terminable upon thirty (30) days or less prior notice.  If Buyer desires to have any Contract
terminated that is not expressly terminable upon thirty (30) days’ or less
notice (any, a “Non-Terminable Contract”), then
Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of any such Non-Terminable Contract that
it desires to have terminated.  Within
one (1) day following receipt of any such Buyer notice, Seller shall
notify Buyer in writing whether Seller, in its sole and absolute discretion, is
willing to terminate such Non-Terminable Contract.  If Seller notifies Buyer that it is unwilling
to terminate any such Non-Terminable Contracts, then Buyer shall have the right,
until the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, either to waive in writing
its prior disapproval of the corresponding Non-Terminable Contract(s) or
to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller and Escrow
Holder as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, in which event the Deposit shall
be returned to Buyer.  If Buyer fails to
waive any such prior disapproval and does not terminate this Agreement before
the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have
waived its prior disapproval of the corresponding Non-Terminable
Contract(s).  All of the Contracts which
are either terminable on thirty (30) days or less notice or which are not
disapproved by Buyer, or with respect to which

 

16

 

Buyer’s
initial disapproval is waived or deemed to be waived hereunder, are referred to
herein as the “Approved Contracts.”

 

ARTICLE 5

 

REMEDIES

 

5.1                  Permitted
Termination; Seller Default.  If the sale of the Property is not
consummated due to the permitted termination of this Agreement by Buyer as
herein expressly provided, then the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer.  Upon such termination, Buyer will have no
liability hereunder except as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement.  If the sale of the Property is not consummated
due solely to Seller’s material default hereunder that is not cured within all
applicable notice and cure periods, then Buyer shall have the right, to elect,
as its sole and exclusive remedy, to (a) terminate this Agreement by
written notice to Seller, promptly after which the Deposit shall be returned to
Buyer, (b) waive the default and proceed to close the transaction
contemplated herein, or (c) provided that all of the conditions to Seller’s
obligations to close have been satisfied and so long as Buyer is not then in
default of any of its material obligations under this Agreement, seek specific
performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement and record and
maintain against the Property a notice of lis pendens in accordance with
applicable law if Buyer further satisfies and continues to satisfy each of the
following obligations: (i) Buyer shall have reasonably demonstrated that
it is prepared to deliver into escrow all funds required by this Agreement in
order for the Closing to occur, Buyer shall have deposited all funds required
by this Agreement in order for the Closing to occur, and Buyer shall be ready
and willing in all other respects to close escrow in accordance with the terms
and conditions of this Agreement; and (ii) Buyer shall have filed an
action for specific performance (a “Specific Performance
Action”) within sixty (60) days of the date the Closing was to have
occurred.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, Seller shall not be deemed in default unless and
until Buyer provides Seller with written notice of such default and Seller
fails to cure such default within three (3) business days of its receipt
of such written notice.

 

5.2                  Buyer
Default; Liquidated Damages.  IF THE SALE
IS NOT CONSUMMATED DUE TO ANY DEFAULT BY BUYER HEREUNDER AND
BUYER FAILS TO CURE SUCH BREACH WITHIN THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER BUYER’S
RECEIPT OF WRITTEN NOTICE FROM SELLER SPECIFYING SUCH BREACH (PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING NOTICE AND CURE
RIGHTS SHALL NOT APPLY TO BUYER’S FAILURE TO CLOSE ON THE CLOSING DATE), THEN
SELLER SHALL RETAIN THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, WHICH RETENTION SHALL
OPERATE TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND RELEASE BUYER FROM ANY AND ALL
LIABILITY HEREUNDER, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS
AGREEMENT.  THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED THAT
SELLER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES, IN THE EVENT OF A FAILURE TO CONSUMMATE THIS SALE DUE
TO BUYER’S DEFAULT, WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPRACTICABLE TO
DETERMINE.  AFTER NEGOTIATION, THE
PARTIES HAVE AGREED THAT, CONSIDERING ALL THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING ON THE
DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF
THE DAMAGES THAT SELLER WOULD INCUR IN

 

17

 

SUCH EVENT.  BY PLACING THEIR
INITIALS BELOW, EACH PARTY SPECIFICALLY CONFIRMS THE ACCURACY OF THE STATEMENTS

Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller,
subject to equitable principles and principles governing creditors’ rights
generally.

 

6.1.3       Non-Contravention.  The execution and delivery of this
Agreement by Seller and the consummation by Seller of the transactions
contemplated hereby will not, to Seller’s knowledge (i) violate any Laws

under the organizational documents of Seller, any note or other evidence of
indebtedness, any mortgage, deed of trust or indenture, or any lease or other
material agreement or instrument to which Seller is a party or by which Seller
may be bound and, in either case, that would have a material and adverse affect
on Seller’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

 

6.1.4       Non-Foreign
Entity.  Seller is
not a “foreign person” or “foreign corporation” as those terms are defined in

6.1.10     Special

19

 

6.1.13     Prohibited Persons and Transactions.  Neither Seller, Shea Properties
Management, Inc., Shea Properties LLC nor J.F. Shea Co, Inc. are, nor
will they become, a person or entity with whom U.S. persons or entities are
restricted from doing business under regulations of the Office of Foreign Asset
Control (“OFAC”) of the Department
of the Treasury (including those named on OFAC’s Specially Designated and
Blocked Persons List) or under any statute, executive order (including the September 24,
2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with
Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism), or other
governmental action and is not and will not engage in any dealings or
transactions or be otherwise associated with such persons or entities.

 

6.2                  Seller’s
Knowledge. 
For purposes of this Agreement and any document delivered at Closing,
whenever the phrase “to Seller’s knowledge,” or the “knowledge” of Seller or
words of similar import are used, they shall be deemed to refer to facts within
the actual knowledge only of Steve Gilmore and Blake Bunker, the
representatives or employees of the Seller who are most knowledgeable as to the
status of the Property of Seller and no others, as of the Effective Date,
without duty of inquiry whatsoever. 
Buyer acknowledges that the individual named above is named solely for
the purpose of defining and narrowing the scope of Seller’s knowledge and not
for the purpose of imposing any liability on or creating any duties running
from such individuals to Buyer.  Buyer
covenants that it will bring no action of any kind against such individual, any
shareholder, partner or member of Seller related to or arising out of these
representations and warranties.

 

6.3                  Seller’s Maximum Aggregate Liability.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
contained in this Agreement or any documents executed by Seller pursuant hereto
or in connection herewith, the representations and warranties of Seller set
forth in Section 6.1, together with Seller’s liability for any
breach of any of Seller’s interim operating covenants under Article 8,
shall survive the Closing and not be merged into the deed for a period of nine (9) months.  Buyer shall have no right to bring any action
against Seller as a result of any untruth or inaccuracy of such representations
and warranties, or any such breach, unless (a) Buyer serves a written
claim on Seller within such nine (9) month period, (b) Buyer
commences and serves an action against Seller within thirty (30) days after
Buyer gives such notice, and (c) the aggregate amount of all liability and
losses arising out of any such untruth or inaccuracy, or any such breach,
exceeds $25,000.  In addition, in no
event shall Seller’s liability for all such breaches exceed, in the aggregate,
$750,000.  Seller shall have no liability
with respect to any of Seller’s representations, warranties and covenants herein
if, prior to the Closing, Buyer has actual knowledge of any breach of a
representation, warranty or covenant of Seller herein, or Buyer obtains actual
knowledge (from whatever source, including, without limitation, any of the Due
Diligence Items, as a result of Buyer’s Due Diligence, the inclusion of any
information in or written disclosure by Seller or Seller’s agents and
employees) that contradicts any of Seller’s representations and warranties
herein, and Buyer nevertheless consummates the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 6.3
shall expressly survive the Close of Escrow and shall not merge into the Deed
or any of the other closing documents hereunder.

material inaccuracy (if any) of Seller’s representations under Section 6.1
hereof.

 

7.3.2       Buyer’s Waiver of Objections.  Buyer acknowledges that its
failure to deliver the Disapproval Notice shall constitute Buyer’s

to conduct such investigation and study on and of said Property and adjacent

creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of
executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially
affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”

ARTICLE 8

 

LEASES;
MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY

 

From the date hereof until the Closing,
and except as otherwise consented to or approved by Buyer, Seller covenants and
agrees with Buyer as follows:

 

8.1                  New Leases; Lease Modifications.  After the Effective Date and prior
to the end of the Due Diligence Period, Seller, in its sole discretion, and
without Buyer’s consent shall have the right to enter into any New Lease or
amend, modify and/or extend any New Lease or any Pre-Effective Date Lease it
deems advisable.  Seller shall provide
Buyer with notice thereof and an executed copy of any such New Lease or
amendment, modification or extension promptly after the execution and delivery
thereof, but in no event later than the next to last day of the Due Diligence
Period.  Buyer’s sole remedy in the event
any New Lease is executed or if any New Lease or Pre-Effective Date Lease is
amended, modified or extended by Seller after the Effective Date and prior to
the end of the Due Diligence Period shall be to terminate this Agreement on or
before the end of the Due Diligence Period in accordance with Section 3.8.  No later than three (3) days after the
Effective Date, Seller shall provide Buyer with its then-current rent and
concession schedule (the “Lease Guidelines”).  The Lease Guidelines shall be in the form of Exhibit I attached hereto and
incorporated herein.  Provided that Buyer
does not elect to terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration of the
Due Diligence Period, after the end of the Due Diligence Period Seller shall
not enter into a New Lease unless such New Lease is on Seller’s standard
residential lease form and in compliance with the Lease Guidelines unless
Seller has obtained Buyer consent in accordance with Section 8.4 below;
modify or amend any Pre-Effective Date Lease or any New Lease entered into
prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period except pursuant to the exercise by
a Tenant of a renewal, extension or other right contained in such Tenant’s
Lease; consent to any assignment or sublease in connection with any
Pre-Effective Date Lease or New Lease; or remove a Tenant under any
Pre-Effective Date Lease or New Lease, whether by summary proceedings or
otherwise, except by reason of a default of the Tenant under the subject
Pre-Effective Lease or New Lease.

 

8.2                  Lease Expenses.  At Closing, Buyer shall reimburse Seller for
any and all Reimbursable Lease Expenses to the extent that the same have been
paid by Seller prior to Closing.  In
addition, at Closing, Buyer shall assume Seller’s obligations to pay, when due
(whether on a stated due date or by acceleration) any Reimbursable Lease
Expenses unpaid as of the Closing, and Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend
and hold Seller harmless from and 

 

25

 

against
any and all claims for such Reimbursable Lease Expenses which remain unpaid for
any reason at the time of Closing, which obligations of Buyer shall survive the
Closing and shall not be merged therein. 
Each party shall make available to the other all Commission Agreements,
records, bills, vouchers and other data in such party’s control verifying
Reimbursable Lease Expenses and the payment thereof.

 

8.3                  Lease Enforcement.  Subject to the provisions of Section 8.1
above, prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to enforce the rights and remedies of the landlord under any
Pre-Effective Date Lease or New Lease, by summary proceedings or otherwise
(including, without limitation, the right to remove any Tenant), and to apply
all or any portion of any Tenant Deposits then held by Seller toward any loss
or damage incurred by Seller by reason of any defaults by Tenants, and the
exercise of any such rights or remedies shall not affect the obligations of
Buyer under this Agreement in any manner or entitle Buyer to a reduction in, or
credit or allowance against, the Purchase Price or give rise to any other claim
on the part of Buyer.

 

8.4                  Certain Interim Operating Covenants.  Seller covenants to Buyer
that  Seller will operate the Property,
from the Effective Date until Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement
as follows:  (i) continue to
operate, manage and maintain the Property in a good and workmanlike manner in
the ordinary course of Seller’s business and substantially in accordance with
Seller’s present practice, and will keep the Improvements and Personal Property
in good order and operating condition, subject to ordinary wear and tear and
further subject to Section 10.2 and cause all necessary repairs,
renewals and replacements to be promptly made 
which are required by the terms of the Leases; (ii) maintain
property insurance on the Property which is at least equivalent in all material
respects to the insurance policies covering the Property as of the Effective
Date; (iii) not enter into any new contract for the provision of goods or
services to or with respect to the Property other than in the ordinary course
of business or that is to terminate upon the Closing, or renew, extend, modify
or replace any of the Contracts unless such contract is an Approved Contract,
is a contract terminable as of the Closing Date or Buyer consents thereto in
writing, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned; (iv) advise Buyer promptly of any change in any
applicable laws, regulations, restrictions, rulings, or orders that might have
a material adverse change on the value or use of the Property by Buyer of which
Seller obtains written notice after the Effective Date and also advise Buyer
promptly of any litigation, arbitration or administrative hearing concerning or
affecting the Property which would have a material adverse effect on the value
or use of the Property of which Seller obtains written notice after the
Effective Date; (v) subject to the
prorations prescribed herein, cause to be paid all trade accounts, costs and
expenses of operation and maintenance of the Property incurred and accruing or
due prior to Closing; (vi) not
knowingly take any action, which action would have the effect of materially
violating any of the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 6.1
of the Agreement unless such action is required by any applicable Laws; (vii) without the prior written consent
of Buyer, not remove any equipment forming a part of the Property except such
as is replaced by Seller by an article of substantially equal suitability and
value, free and clear of any lien or security interest; (viii) if any apartment
unit is vacated more than five business (5) days prior to Closing, then
prior to Closing return such unit to rentable condition in accordance with Seller’s
customary cleaning, painting, and repair standards for vacant units (the
condition of such an apartment unit after cleaning is referred to herein as a “Rent Ready Condition”); provided if Seller fails to 

 

26

 

return
any such vacated unit to a Rent Ready Condition prior to Closing, or a unit is
vacated within five (5) business days of Closing and Seller fails to
return such unit to Rent Ready Condition by Closing, then at Closing Seller
shall credit Buyer an amount equal to the reasonably estimated cost to return
each such unit to a Rent Ready Condition, up to, but not to exceed, $1,000; and (ix) Seller shall maintain its website and related material
through the Closing except that as soon after Closing as reasonably possible,
Seller shall remove all references to the Seller as Owner and its property
management company, as well as any internet lease concessions.  In addition, Seller shall terminate any
leasing and/or management agreement with the Property Manager or any affiliate
of Seller with respect to the Property effective as of the Closing Date and pay
any and all costs and expenses of termination thereof.

 

8.5                  Actions
Prohibited.  Provided
that Buyer elects not to terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration
of the Due Diligence Period, then from and after the expiration of the Due
Diligence Period Seller shall not, without the prior written approval of Buyer:

 

8.5.1       make any
material structural alterations or additions to the Property except as (a) in
the ordinary course of operating the Property, (b) required for
maintenance and repair which are required by the terms of the Leases, (c) required

or modify, in a manner materially adverse to the Property, any License or
Permit held by Seller with respect to the Property or any part thereof which
would be binding upon Buyer after the Closing.

9.7                  Prorations and Closing Costs.

 

9.7.1       Prorations.

 

(a)           Seller and
Buyer agree to adjust, as of 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding
the Closing Date (the “Proration Time”)
on the then applicable six (6) month real property tax billing period, the
following (collectively, the “Proration Items”):  real estate and personal property taxes and
assessments (subject to the terms of Section 9.7.1(b) below),
utility bills (except as hereinafter provided), and collected Rents (subject to
the terms of Section 9.7.1(b) below) payable by the owner of
the Property.  Seller will be charged and
credited for the amounts of all of the Proration Items relating to the period
up to and including the Proration Time, and Buyer will be charged and credited
for all of the Proration Items relating to the period after the Proration Time.
Such preliminary estimated Closing prorations shall be set forth on a
preliminary closing statement to be prepared by Seller and submitted to Buyer
for Buyer’s approval prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Statement”). Seller agrees that twenty-four (24) hours
prior to the Closing, Seller will discontinue data entry operations in the
on-site computer system, including making deposits of rental income and will
forward final reports as soon as practicable to Buyer’s representative so as to
enable Buyer and Seller to work together to transition the management of the
Property and complete work on prorations as set forth herein.   The Closing Statement, once agreed upon,
shall be signed by Buyer and Seller and delivered to the Escrow Agent for
purposes of making the preliminary proration adjustment at Closing subject to
the final cash settlement provided for below. 
The preliminary proration shall be paid at Closing by Buyer to Seller
(if the preliminary prorations result in a net credit to Seller) or by Seller
to Buyer (if the preliminary prorations result in a net credit to Buyer) by
increasing or reducing the cash to be delivered by Buyer in payment of the
Purchase Price at the Closing.  If the
actual amounts of the Proration Items are not known as of the Proration Time,
the prorations will be made at Closing on the basis of the best evidence then
available; thereafter, when actual figures are received (not to exceed 120 days
after closing), re-prorations will be made on the basis of the actual figures,
and a final cash settlement will be made between Seller and Buyer.  No prorations will be made in relation to
insurance premiums, and Seller’s insurance policies will not be assigned to
Buyer.  The provisions of this Section 9.7.1(a) will
survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months.

 

31

 

(b)           Buyer will
receive a credit on the Closing Statement for the prorated amount (as of the
Proration Time) of all Rent previously paid to or collected by Seller and
attributable to any period following the Proration Time.  Rents are “Delinquent”
when they were due prior to the Closing Date, and payment thereof has not been
made on or before the Closing Date.  Delinquent
Rents will not be prorated.  All sums
collected by Buyer from and after Closing from each Tenant will be applied
first to current amounts owed by such Tenant and then to Delinquent Rent owed
by such Tenant to the extent not previously collected by Seller.  Buyer shall deliver to Seller all Delinquent
Rent collected hereunder on a monthly basis within five (5) days of the
end of each calendar month. Buyer shall not have an exclusive right to collect
any sums due Seller from Tenant under the Leases and Seller hereby retains the
right to collect any sums due Seller from Tenants under the Leases for any sums
due Seller for period attributable to Seller’s ownership of the Property;
provided, however, Seller shall not be permitted to commence or pursue any
legal proceedings including eviction against any current Tenant.  The provisions of this Section 9.7.1(b) will
survive the Closing.

 

(c)           All ad
valorem real estate and personal property taxes with respect to the Property
shall be prorated as of the Proration Time on a cash basis for the calendar
year in which the Closing occurs, regardless of the year for which such taxes
are assessed.

 

(d)           Water,
gas, steam, electricity and other public utility charges will be paid by the
Seller to the utility company to the Closing Date.  The Seller shall arrange for a final reading
of all utility meters (covering gas, water, steam and electricity) as of the
Closing.  To the extent required by the
applicable utility company to maintain continuity of service to the Property,
Seller and Buyer shall jointly execute a letter to each of such utility
companies advising such utility companies of the termination of the Seller’s
responsibility for such charges for utilities furnished to the Property as of
the date of the Closing and commencement of the Buyer’s responsibilities
therefor from and after such date.  If a
bill is obtained from any such utility company as of the Closing, then Seller
shall pay such bill on or before the Closing. 
If such bill shall not have been obtained on or before the Closing, then
Seller shall, upon receipt of such bill, pay all such utility charges as
evidenced by such bill or bills pertaining to the period prior to the Closing,
and the Buyer shall pay all such utility charges pertaining to the period
thereafter.  Any bill which shall be
rendered which shall cover a period both before and after the date of Closing
shall be apportioned between the Buyer and the Seller as of the Closing.  Seller will be entitled to all deposits
presently in effect with the utility providers, and Buyer will be obligated to
make its own arrangements for deposits with the utility providers.

 

(e)           Revenues
(but not up-front payments), if any, arising out of telephone booths, vending
machines, washing machines or other income-producing agreements shall be
adjusted and prorated on an if, as and when collected basis.

 

(f)            Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing for all
Tenant Deposits then outstanding under the Leases and for all Rent paid in
advance (to the extent not prorated as set forth in (b) above).  As of the Closing, Buyer shall assume
Seller’s obligations related to the Tenant Deposits.  Buyer shall indemnify, defend, and hold
Seller harmless from and against all demands and claims made by Tenants arising
out of the 

 

32

 

transfer
or disposition of such Tenant Deposits transferred to Buyer.  The provisions of this Section 9.7.1(f) shall
expressly survive the Closing.

 

(g)           Buyer
shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing for all payments
due or owing under any Approved Contracts for periods prior to the Closing
Date, which amounts shall be prorated as of the Proration Time.  If Seller has paid any amounts under any
Approved Contracts for periods after the Proration Time, Buyer shall pay such
amounts to Seller at Closing in addition to the Purchase Price.

 

(h)           Seller
shall receive a credit for any and all Reimbursable Lease Expenses as set forth
in Section 8.2 of this Agreement, to the extent that the same have
been paid by Seller prior to Closing. 
Each party shall make available to the other all Commission Agreements,
records, bills, vouchers and other data in such party’s control verifying Reimbursable
Lease Expenses and the payment thereof.

 

9.7.2       Closing Costs.  Seller shall pay (a) the county and city
transfer taxes, (b) the CLTA portion of the premium associated with the
issuance of the Title Policy, (c) one-half of Escrow Agent’s costs and
fees, and (d) costs and charges customarily charged to sellers in
accordance with common escrow practices in the county in which the Property is
located, other than those costs and charges specifically required to be paid by
Buyer hereunder.  Buyer shall pay (a) the
premium associated with any extended coverage, any coverage in excess of the
Purchase Price and all endorsements Buyer may require in accordance with Section 4.4,
(b) one-half of Escrow Agent’s costs and fees, (c) the recording fees
required in connection with the transfer of the Property to Buyer, and (d) any
additional costs and charges customarily charged to buyers in accordance with
common escrow practices in the county in which the Property is located, other
than those costs and charges specifically required to be paid by Seller hereunder.

 

9.8                  Broker.  Buyer hereby represents and warrants to
Seller that Buyer has not employed any broker with respect to the this
transaction and Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer that Seller has
not employed any broker with respect to this transaction.  If any person brings a claim for a commission
or finder’s fee based upon any contact, dealings, or communication with Buyer
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then Buyer
shall defend Seller from such claim, and shall indemnify Seller and hold Seller
harmless from any and all costs, damages, claims, liabilities, or expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements)
incurred by Seller with respect to the claim. If any person brings a claim for
a commission or finder’s fee against Buyer based upon any contact, dealings, or
communication with Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, then Seller shall defend Buyer from such claim, and shall indemnify
Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from any and all costs, damages, claims,
liabilities, or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees and disbursements) incurred by Buyer with respect to the claim.  The provisions of this Section 9.8
shall survive the Closing or, if the purchase and sale is not consummated, any
termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 10

MISCELLANEOUS

 

10.1                Amendment and Modification.  This Agreement may be amended, modified, or
supplemented only by a written agreement signed by Buyer and Seller.

 

10.2                Risk of Loss and Insurance Proceeds.

 

10.2.1     Minor Loss.  Buyer shall be bound to purchase the Property
for the full Purchase Price as required by the terms hereof, without regard to
the occurrence or effect of any damage to the Property or destruction of any
improvements thereon or condemnation of any portion of the Property, provided
that: (a) the cost to repair any such damage or destruction, or the
diminution in the value of the remaining Property as a result of a partial
condemnation, equals $500,000 or less, and (b) upon the Closing, there
shall be a credit against the Purchase Price due hereunder equal to the amount
of any insurance proceeds (other than business interruption or rental loss
insurance applicable to the period prior to Closing) or condemnation awards
collected by Seller as a result of any such damage or destruction or
condemnation, plus the amount of any insurance deductible, less any sums expended
by Seller directly toward the restoration or repair of the Property.  If the proceeds or awards have not been
collected as of the Closing, then such proceeds (including business
interruption or rental loss insurance of Seller which would be applicable to any
period subsequent to Closing) or awards shall be assigned to Buyer, except to
the extent needed to reimburse Seller for sums expended prior to the Closing to
repair or restore the Property, without a reduction of the Purchase Price.

 

10.2.2     Major Loss.  If the amount of the damage or destruction or
condemnation as specified above exceeds $500,000, then Buyer may at its option,
to be exercised by written notice to Seller within ten (10) business days
of Seller’s notice of the occurrence of the damage or destruction or the
commencement of condemnation proceedings, terminate this Agreement.  Buyer’s failure to elect to terminate this
Agreement within said ten (10) business day period shall be deemed an
election by Buyer to consummate this purchase and sale transaction.  If Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement
within such ten (10) business day period, then the Deposit shall be
returned to Buyer and neither party shall have any further rights or
obligations hereunder except as expressly provided elsewhere in this
Agreement.  If Buyer elects or is deemed
to have elected to proceed with the purchase, then upon the Closing, there
shall be a credit against the Purchase Price due hereunder equal to the amount
of any insurance proceeds (other than business interruption or rental loss
insurance applicable to the period prior to Closing) or condemnation awards
collected by Seller as a result of any such damage or destruction or
condemnation, plus the amount of any insurance deductible, less any sums
expended by Seller directly toward the restoration or repair of the
Property.  If the proceeds or awards have
not been collected as of the Closing, then such proceeds (including business
interruption or rental loss insurance of Seller which would be applicable to
any period subsequent to Closing) or awards shall be assigned to Buyer, except
to the extent needed to reimburse Seller for sums expended prior to the Closing
to repair or restore the Property, without a reduction to the Purchase Price.

 

34

 

10.2.3     Insurance Proceeds Assignment.  With respect to the
requirement of Seller under Sections 10.2.1 and 10.2.2 above, to
assign to Buyer the right to receive insurance awards and payments to be due
Seller, Seller agrees that in the event that Seller’s insurance carrier(s) do
not permit assignment thereof to Buyer, Seller agrees to request and obtain
from the insurance carrier(s) a “policy endorsement” whereby Buyer shall
be added as a “loss payee” under the Seller’s policies effective as of the
Closing Date.  Thereafter, Seller shall
use its good faith efforts to promptly pursue on behalf of Buyer and for
Buyer’s benefit such unpaid awards and payments including any payments under
business interruption or rental loss insurance applicable to any period
subsequent to Closing.

pursuant to the provisions hereof embody the entire agreement and understanding
of the parties hereto as to the subject matter contained herein.  There are no restrictions, promises,
representations, warranties, covenants, or undertakings other than those
expressly set forth or referred to in such documents.  This Agreement and such documents supersede
all prior agreements and understandings among the parties with respect to the
subject matter hereof.

 

10.8                Severability.  Any term or provision of this Agreement that
is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without
rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this
Agreement, or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or
provisions of this Agreement.

 

10.9                Attorney Fees.  If any action is brought by any party to this
Agreement to enforce or interpret its terms or provisions, the prevailing Party
will be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection

Agreement, each party to this Agreement will be responsible for, and will pay,
all of its own fees and expenses, including those of its counsel and
accountants, incurred in the negotiation, preparation, and consummation of this
Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereunder including, without
limitation, in the case of Buyer, all third-party engineering and environmental
review costs and all other Due Diligence costs.

 

10.10              Waiver of Consequential and Punitive Damages.  NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE
CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER SELLER OR BUYER OR ANY
AFFILIATE OF SELLER OR BUYER OR THEIR RESPECTIVE MEMBERS, PARTNERS,
SHAREHOLDERS, 

 

37

 

DIRECTORS,
OFFICERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT,
CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS AND LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION) ARISING OUT OF THE
TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREIN, EVEN IF SELLER OR BUYER OR ANY SUCH PARTY HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

 

10.11              Confidential Information; Confidentiality.  The parties acknowledge that the transaction described herein is of a
confidential nature and, prior to Closing, shall not be disclosed except (a) with
the prior written consent of Seller (which consent may be withheld in Seller’s
sole and absolute discretion), (2) to the extent that such document or
information is or becomes publicly available other than the result of Buyer’s
breach of this Agreement, (b) to the Permitted Outside Parties; or (c) as
may be necessary for Buyer or Buyer’s representatives to comply with applicable
laws, including, without limitation, governmental regulatory, disclosure
(including SEC rules), tax and reporting requirements, to comply with other
requirements of regulatory and supervisory authorities and self-regulatory
organizations having jurisdiction over Buyer or Buyer’s representatives; or to
comply with regulatory or judicial processes. 
Except as set forth above, no party shall make any public disclosure of
the specific terms of this Agreement.  In
connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the preparation for the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, each party acknowledges
that it will have access to confidential information relating to the other
party.  Each party shall treat such
information as confidential, preserve the confidentiality thereof, and not
duplicate or use such information, except to Permitted Outside Parties in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.  In the event of the termination of this
Agreement for any reason whatsoever, Buyer shall return to Seller, all
documents relating to Seller, the Property or the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement including, without limitation, the Due Diligence Items, work
papers, engineering and environmental studies and reports and all other
materials (including all copies thereof obtained from Seller in connection with
the transactions contemplated hereby), and each party shall use its best
efforts, including instructing its employees and others who have had access to
such information, to keep confidential and not to use any such information.  Except as required by applicable law, neither
party shall issue any press release or make any statement to the media in
violation of the above restrictions without the other party’s consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing or, if the
purchase and sale is not consummated, any termination of this Agreement.

 

10.12              No Joint Venture.  Nothing set forth in this Agreement shall be
construed to create a joint venture between Buyer and Seller.

 

10.13              Limited Liability.  Neither the members, managers, employees nor
agents of Seller, nor the shareholders, officers, directors, employees or
agents of any of them shall be liable under this Agreement and all parties
hereto shall look solely to the assets of Seller for the payment of any claim
or the performance of any obligation by Seller.

 

10.14              Governmental Approvals. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be construed as authorizing Buyer to apply
for a zone change, variance, subdivision maps, lot line adjustment, condominium
conversions or other discretionary governmental act, approval or 

 

38

 

permit
with respect to the Property prior to the Close of Escrow, and Buyer agrees not
to do so without Seller’s prior written approval, which approval may be
withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion.  Buyer agrees not to submit any reports,
studies or other documents, including, without limitation, plans and
specifications, impact statements for water, sewage, drainage or traffic,
environmental review forms, or energy conservation checklists to any
governmental agency, or any amendment or modification to any such instruments
or documents prior to the Close of Escrow unless first approved by Seller,
which approval Seller may withhold in Seller’s sole discretion.  Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Property
shall not be subject to or conditioned upon Buyer’s obtaining any variances,
zoning amendments, subdivision maps, lot line adjustment, or other
discretionary governmental act, approval or permit.

 

10.15              Time of Essence.  Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

 

10.16              No Waiver.  No waiver of any of the provisions of this
Agreement shall be deemed, or shall constitute, a waiver of any other
provision, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing
waiver, nor shall a waiver in any instance constitute a waiver in any
subsequent instance.  No waiver shall be
binding unless executed in writing by the party making the waiver.

 

10.17              Counting of Days.  Unless otherwise expressly specified in this
Agreement, in computing any period of time described in this Agreement, the day
of the act or event after which the designated period of time begins to run is
not to be included and the last day of the period so computed is to be
included, unless such last day is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday under the
laws of the State in which the Property is located, in which event the period
shall run until the end of the next day which is neither a Saturday, Sunday or
legal holiday.  The final day of any such
period shall be deemed to end at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time.

 

10.18              Electronic Signatures.  Signatures to this Agreement, any amendment
hereof and any notice given hereunder, transmitted by telecopy or electronic
mail shall be valid and effective to bind the party so signing.  Each party agrees to promptly deliver an
execution original of this Agreement (and any amendment hereto) with its actual
signature to the other party, but a failure to do so shall not affect the
enforceability of this Agreement (or any amendment hereto), it being expressly
agreed that each party to this Agreement shall be bound by its own telecopied
or e-mailed signature and shall accept the telecopied or e-mailed signature of
the other party to this Agreement.

 

10.19              No Reservation of Property.  The preparation and/or delivery of unsigned
drafts of this Agreement shall not create any legally binding rights in the
Property and/or obligations of the parties, and Buyer and Seller acknowledge
that this Agreement shall be of no effect until it is duly executed by both
Buyer and Seller.

 

10.20              Natural Hazard Disclosure.  Buyer and Seller acknowledge that Seller may
be required to disclose if the property lies within the following natural
hazard areas or zones:  (i) a
special flood hazard area designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(California Civil Code Section 1103(c)(1)); (ii) an area of potential
flooding (California Government Code Section 8589.4); (iii) a very
high fire hazard severity zone (California Government Code Section 51178
et seq.); (iv) a wild land area that may contain substantial 

 

39

 

forest
fire risks and hazards (Public Resources Code Section 4135; (v) earthquake
fault zone (Public Resources Code Section 2622); or (vi) a seismic
hazard zone (Public Resources Code Section 2696) (sometimes all of the
preceding are herein collectively called the “Natural
Hazard Matters”). 
Accordingly, Seller shall provide Buyer with a natural hazard disclosure
report (the “Natural Hazard Disclosure Statement”)
prepared by a professional consulting firm (the “Natural
Hazard Expert”) relating to the Property no later than three (3) days
after the Effective Date.  Buyer
expressly acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Natural Hazard Disclosure
Statement prepared by the Natural Hazard Expert will fully and completely
discharge Seller from its disclosure obligations referred to herein, if and to
the extent any such obligations exist, (b) for the purpose of this
Agreement, the provisions of Civil Code section 1103.4 regarding non-liability
of Seller for errors or omissions not within its personal knowledge shall be
deemed to apply, and (c) the Natural Hazard Expert shall be deemed to be
an expert, dealing with matters within the scope of its expertise with respect
to the examination and written report regarding the natural hazards referred to
above.  Buyer agrees to provide Seller
with a written acknowledgment of its receipt of the Natural Hazard Disclosure
Statement.

 

10.21              Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is not intended to give or
confer any benefits, rights, privileges, claims, actions, or remedies to any
person or entity as a third party beneficiary or otherwise.

 

10.22              Resolution of Disputes.  With the exception of a Specific Performance
Action, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, including any dispute relating to interpretation of or performance
under this Agreement (“Dispute”),
shall be resolved in the manner set forth in this Section, which shall be in
lieu of any form of litigation in any court, and the parties specifically
waive, to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law, any right to a
jury trial of any Dispute between them.

 

10.22.1  Negotiation.  The parties will attempt in good faith to
resolve the Dispute promptly by negotiations between senior representatives of
the parties who have authority to settle the Dispute (each a “Representative”).

 

10.22.2  Mediation.  If the Representatives are unable to resolve
the Dispute through negotiation, the parties agree first to try in good faith
to resolve the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”) under its
Commercial Mediation Procedures then in effect before resorting to arbitration
pursuant to Section 10.22.3, below.

 

10.22.3  Judicial
Reference.  In the event
the Representatives are not able to resolve the Dispute within 30 days
following the date one party first notifies the other party of the Dispute in
writing, then the Dispute shall be resolved by general judicial reference
pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Sections 638 and 641 through 645.1, or any
successor statutes thereto, and as modified or as otherwise provided in this
Section.  Subject to the limitations set
forth in this Section, the general referee shall have the authority to try all
issues, whether of fact or law, and to report a statement of decision to the
court.  The referee shall be the only
trier of fact or law in the reference proceeding, and shall have no authority
to further refer any issues of fact or law to any other party, without the
mutual consent of all parties to the judicial reference proceeding.

 

40

 

(a)                                  Place.  The proceedings shall be heard in Orange
County, California.

 

(b)                                 Referee.  The referee shall be a retired judge with
experience in relevant real estate matters. 
The referee shall not have any relationship to the parties to the
Dispute or interest in the Property.  The
parties to the Dispute participating in the judicial reference shall meet to
select the referee within ten (10) days after service of the Notice of
Dispute or initial complaint on all defendants named therein.  Any dispute regarding the selection of the
referee shall be promptly resolved by the judge to whom the matter is assigned,
or if there is none, to the presiding judge of the Superior Court of Orange
County who shall select the referee.

 

(c)                                  Commencement
and Timing of Proceeding.  The
referee shall promptly commence the proceeding at the earliest convenient date
in light of all of the facts and circumstances and shall conduct the proceeding
without undue delay.

 

(d)                                 Pre-hearing
Conferences.  The referee
may require one or more pre-hearing conferences.

 

(e)                                  Discovery.  The parties to the judicial reference
proceeding shall be entitled only to limited discovery, consisting of the
exchange between such parties of only the following matters:  (i) witness lists; (ii) expert
witness designations; (iii) expert witness reports; (iv) exhibits; (v) reports
of testing or inspections of the property subject to the Dispute, including but
not limited to, destructive or invasive testing; and (vi) trial
briefs.  Any other discovery provided for
in the California Code of Civil Procedure shall be permitted by the referee
upon a showing of good cause or based on the mutual agreement of the parties to
the judicial reference proceeding.  The
referee shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery orders in the
same manner as any trial court judge

 

(f)                                    Motions.  The referee shall have the power to hear and
dispose of motions, including motions relating to provisional remedies,
demurrers, motions to dismiss, motions for judgment on the pleadings and
summary adjudication motions, in the same manner as a trial court judge, except
the referee shall also have the power to adjudicate summarily issues of fact or
law including the availability of remedies, whether or not the issue
adjudicated could dispose of an entire cause of action or defense.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to
the selection of the referee as provided herein, any provisional remedies are
sought by the parties to the Dispute, such relief may be sought in the Superior
Court of Orange County, California.

 

(g)                                 Rules of
Law.  The referee shall apply the
laws of the State of California except as expressly provided herein including
the rules of evidence, unless expressly waived by all parties to the
judicial reference proceeding.

 

(h)                                 Record.  A stenographic record of the hearing shall be
made, provided that the record shall remain confidential except as may be
necessary for post-hearing motions and any appeals.

 

41

 

(i)                                     Statement
of Decision.  The
referee’s statement of decision shall contain findings of fact and conclusions
of law to the extent required by law if the case were tried to a judge.  The decision of the referee shall stand as
the decision of the court, and upon filing of the statement of decision with
the clerk of the court, judgment may be entered thereon in the same manner as
if the Dispute had been tried by the court.

 

(j)                                     Post-hearing
Motions.  The referee shall have the
authority to rule on all post-hearing motions in the same manner as a
trial judge.

 

(k)                                  Appeals.  The decision of the referee shall be subject
to appeal in the same manner as if the Dispute had been tried by the court.

 

(l)                                     Expenses.  The fees and costs of the referee in any
judicial reference proceeding hereunder shall be shared equally by the parties
to the judicial reference proceeding, subject to Section 10.9.

42

 

Improvements (the “Completion Date”), convert the Property into condominiums or
similar forms of subdivided ownership. 
In connection with the foregoing, Buyer further agrees that (a) the
prohibition against condominium conversions is reasonable under the
circumstances existing as of the Effective Date, (b) if Buyer sells or
otherwise transfers the Property within ten (10) years of the Completion
Date, then Buyer shall notify its buyer in writing of this restriction and
include a similar prohibition against condominium conversions in any purchase
and sale or similar agreement to so transfer the Property, (c) Buyer shall
indemnify, defend, protect and hold Seller and its Affiliates harmless, from
any and all Losses resulting from Buyer’s breach of the representation,
warranty and covenant contained in this Section 10.23, (d) without

material portion of the consideration given by Buyer to Seller in exchange for
Seller’s performance under this Agreement, (e) Buyer acknowledges that
Seller has given Buyer material concessions regarding this transaction in
exchange for Buyer agreeing to the provisions of this Section 10.23,
and (f) Buyer’s obligations under this Section 10.23 shall
expressly survive the Closing and the deliver of the Deed.  In addition, Buyer acknowledges and agrees
that its breach of the terms and conditions of this Section 10.24
will constitute immediate and irreparable damage to the Seller, which cannot be
fully and adequately compensated in money damages and which will warrant
preliminary and other injunctive relief, an order for specific performance, and
other equitable relief.  In connection
with the foregoing, Buyer further agrees that no bond or other security shall
be required in obtaining such equitable relief and Buyer hereby consent to the
remedy of an injunction or specific performance to the extent Seller is
entitled thereto.  Buyer acknowledges
that Seller’s remedies hereunder are cumulative and other action may be taken
and remedies enforced against it in the event of a breach of this Section.  At the Closing, Buyer and Seller shall record
a memorandum of agreement (the “Memorandum”) evidencing Buyer’s
agreements set forth herein.

Audit.  Seller acknowledges that under
Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X, Buyer is required to obtain certain
information in connection with reports Buyer is required to file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

Seller agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Buyer’s
auditors in the preparation of such audited financial statements.  In furtherance of the foregoing, (a) Seller
shall, during normal business hours and upon not less than three (3) business
days’ prior written notice, allow Buyer’s auditors reasonable access to such
books and records maintained by Seller and Property Manager exclusively in
respect of the Property solely to the extent necessary to prepare and file such
audited financial statements in compliance with Rule 3-14 of Regulation
S-X; and (b) if Seller has audited financial statements with respect to
the Property, Seller shall provide Buyer’s auditors with a copy of such audited
financial statements; provided, however, that Buyer expressly acknowledges and
agrees that if Seller does not have audited financial statements with respect
to the Property, Seller shall be under no obligation to cause such audited
financial statements to be prepared. 
Seller acknowledges that Buyer’s audit shall include a review of
Seller’s records for up to three (3) years prior to Closing.  In consideration of the foregoing, Buyer
agrees that Buyer shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Seller,
Property Manager and their respective Affiliates, partners, shareholders,
members, officers, directors, managers, agents, and employees from and against
any and all Losses of any kind or nature, arising out of or in any way
connected with Seller’s provision of the materials required by this Section 10.24,
including without limitation lawsuits by shareholders or regulators or any
other persons whatsoever.  

 

43

expressly agrees that Seller’s delivery of any information under this Section 10.24
(X) shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 10.11,
above; (Y) does not in any manner increase any liability of Seller under
this Agreement, or (Z) obviate or waive the “AS IS” provisions of Section 7.2.2,
above.  Subject to the terms of this Section 10.24,
Seller’s and Buyer’s respective obligation under this Section 10.24
shall expressly survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed.
