It is understood and agreed that Seller shall have no obligation to obtain, commission or prepare any such books, records, files, reports or studies not now in Seller’s possession.

     3.3. Condition of the Property.

     (a) Seller recommends that Purchaser employ one or more independent engineering and/or environmental professionals to perform engineering, environmental and physical assessments on Purchaser’s behalf in respect of the Property and the condition thereof and/or to review and evaluate any of the foregoing assessments in Seller’s possession. Purchaser and Seller mutually acknowledge and agree that the Property is being sold in an “AS IS” condition and “WITH ALL FAULTS,” known or unknown, contingent or existing. Purchaser has the sole responsibility to fully inspect the Property, to investigate all matters relevant thereto, including, without limitation, the condition of the Property, and to reach its own, independent evaluation of any risks (environmental or otherwise) or rewards associated with the ownership, leasing, management and operation of the Property. Effective as of the Closing and except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser hereby waives and releases Seller and its partners and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, agents, affiliates, employees and successors and assigns

from and against any and all claims, obligations and liabilities arising out of or in connection with the Property.

     (b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Purchaser does hereby unconditionally waive and release Seller and its partners and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, agents, affiliates and employees from any present or future claims and liabilities of any nature arising from or relating to the presence or alleged presence of Hazardous Substances in, on, at, from, under or about the Property or any adjacent property, including, without limitation, any claims under or on account of any Environmental Law, regardless of whether such Hazardous Substances are located in, on, at, from, under or about the Property or any adjacent property prior to or after the date hereof. The terms and provisions of this Section 3.3 shall survive the Closing hereunder until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations.

     3.4. Confidentiality. While this Agreement is in effect, Purchaser shall adhere to the obligations of the “Recipient” as set forth in that certain Confidentiality Agreement dated as of May 26, 2006 relating to the Property.

ARTICLE 4.
TITLE AND PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS

     4.1. Permitted Exceptions. The Property shall be sold and is to be conveyed, and Purchaser agrees to purchase the Property, subject to the Permitted Exceptions.

     4.2. Title Commitment; Survey.

     (a) Seller has heretofore caused to be delivered to Purchaser: (i) the Title Commitment (ii) available copies of all title exception documents referred to in the Title Commitment; and (iii) the Existing Survey. At Closing, Purchaser shall cause the Title Commitment to be updated. Purchaser may, if it so elects and at its sole cost and expense, arrange for the preparation of a revised, updated or recertified version of the Existing Survey. Upon receipt of any revised or updated version of the Existing Survey, Purchaser shall promptly deliver a copy of same to Seller.

     (b) If the Title Commitment (or any update thereto) or Existing Survey (or any update or revision thereto) discloses exceptions or matters other than the Permitted Exceptions, then on or before August 15, 2006 “Objection Date”), Purchaser shall notify Seller of any such exceptions or matters to which it objects. Any such exceptions or matters not objected to by Purchaser as aforesaid shall become “Permitted Exceptions”. If Purchaser timely objects to any such exceptions or matters, then Seller shall, on or before August 18, 2006, deliver notice to Purchaser indicating whether Seller shall cause the removal of such exceptions or matters (which removal may be by way of waiver or endorsement by Title Insurer). Failure by Seller to deliver notice on or before such date shall be deemed to be an election by Seller not to cause the removal of such exceptions or matters. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cause the removal of any such exceptions or matters as aforesaid, Purchaser shall, prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, have the option, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to either (a) waive the unsatisfied objections and close, or (b) terminate this Agreement by written

notice to Seller given prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. If Purchaser so terminates this Agreement, then the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except those which expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser does not so terminate this Agreement, then Purchaser shall consummate the Closing and accept title to the Property subject to all such exceptions and matters (in which event, all such exceptions and matters shall be deemed “Permitted Exceptions”).

     (c) Between the Objection Date and the Closing Date, Purchaser may notify Seller in writing (the “Gap Notice”) of objections to exceptions to title that were not disclosed by the Title Commitment (or an update thereto received by Purchaser prior to the Objection Date); provided, however, Purchaser must notify Seller of each such objection within five (5) Business Days after receiving written notice from Title Company of the existence of same. If Purchaser delivers a Gap Notice to Seller, Purchaser and Seller shall have the same rights and obligations with respect to the objections contained within the Gap Notice as with respect to the objections made, if any, prior to the Objection Date; provided, however, that Seller shall have two (2) Business Days to respond to any Gap Notice and Purchaser shall have two (2) Business Days thereafter to elect either to waive any unsatisfied objection and close, or terminate, in accordance with the provisions of subsection 4.2(b) above, with the Closing Date being extended as necessary to accommodate such response periods.

     4.3. Delivery of Title.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, at the Closing, Seller shall obtain releases of any Monetary Objections. Other than as set forth above, Seller shall not be required to take or bring any action or proceeding or any other steps to remove any title exception or to expend any moneys therefor, nor shall Purchaser have any right of action against Seller, at law or in equity, for Seller’s inability to convey title subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Seller is unable to convey title subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, and Purchaser has not, prior to the Closing Date, given written notice to Seller that Purchaser is willing to waive objection to each title exception which is not a Permitted Exception, Seller shall have the right, in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion, to (i) take such action as Seller shall deem advisable to attempt to discharge each such title exception which is not a Permitted Exception or (ii) terminate this Agreement. In the event of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to this subsection 4.3(b), the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be refunded to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for those that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this subsection 4.3(b) shall require Seller, despite any election by Seller to attempt to discharge any title exceptions, to take or bring any action or proceeding or any other steps to remove any title exception or to expend any moneys therefor. Nothing in this subsection 4.3(b) shall limit or qualify Seller’s obligations under subsection 4.3(a) or give Seller the right to adjourn the Closing Date or to terminate this Agreement as a result of Seller’s failure or refusal to discharge Monetary Objections as to which Seller is required to obtain releases as provided in subsection 4.3(a).

     4.4. Purchaser’s Right to Accept Title. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 4, Purchaser may, by written notice given to Seller at any time prior to the earlier of (x) the Closing Date and (y) the termination of this Agreement, elect to accept such title as Seller can convey, notwithstanding the existence of any title exceptions which are not Permitted Exceptions. In such event, this Agreement shall remain in effect and the parties shall proceed to Closing but Purchaser shall not be entitled to any abatement of the Purchase Price, any credit or allowance of any kind or any claim or right of action against Seller for damages or otherwise by reason of the existence of any title exceptions which are not Permitted Exceptions, except for title exceptions as to which Seller has an obligation to obtain releases as provided in Section 4.3(a).

     4.5. Cooperation. In connection with obtaining the Title Policy, Purchaser and Seller, as applicable, and to the extent requested by the Title Company, will deliver to the Title Company (a) evidence sufficient to establish (i) the legal existence of Purchaser and Seller and (ii) the authority of the respective signatories of Seller and Purchaser to bind Seller and Purchaser, as the case may be, and (b) a certificate of good standing of Seller.

     (a) Taxes. All general real estate taxes imposed by any governmental authority (“Taxes”) for the year in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing. If the Closing occurs prior to the receipt by Seller of the tax ▇▇▇▇ for the calendar year or other applicable tax period in which the Closing occurs, Taxes shall be prorated for such calendar year or other applicable tax period based upon the prior year’s tax ▇▇▇▇.

     (b) Reproration of Taxes. Within forty-five (45) days of receipt of final bills for Taxes, the party receiving said final bills shall furnish copies of the same to the other party and shall prepare and present to the other party a calculation of the reproration of such Taxes, based upon the actual amount of such Taxes for the year in which the Closing occurs.

The provisions of this Section 6.4(b) shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date.

     (c) Rents, Income and Other Expenses. Rents and any other amounts payable by tenants shall be prorated as of the Closing Date and be adjusted against the Purchase Price on the basis of a schedule which shall be prepared by Seller and delivered to Purchaser for Purchaser’s review and approval prior to Closing. Purchaser shall receive at Closing a credit for Purchaser’s pro rata share of the rents, additional rent, common area maintenance charges, tenant reimbursements and escalations, and all other payments payable for the month of Closing and for all other rents and

other amounts that apply to periods from and after the Closing, but which are received by Seller prior to Closing. Purchaser agrees to pay to Seller, promptly, any rents or other payments by tenants under their respective Leases that apply to periods prior to Closing but are received by Purchaser after Closing; provided, however, that any delinquent rents or other payments by tenants shall be applied first to any current amounts owing by such tenants, then to delinquent rents in the order in which such rents are most recently past due, with the balance, if any, paid over to Seller to the extent of delinquencies existing at the time of Closing to which Seller is entitled; it being understood and agreed that Purchaser shall not be legally responsible to Seller for the collection of any rents or other charges payable with respect to the Leases or any portion thereof, which are delinquent or past due as of the Closing Date; but Purchaser agrees that Purchaser shall send monthly notices for a period of three (3) consecutive months in an effort to collect any rents and charges not collected as of the Closing Date. Any reimbursements payable by any tenant under the terms of any tenant lease affecting the Property as of the Closing Date, which reimbursements pertain to such tenant’s pro rata share of increased operating expenses or common area maintenance costs incurred with respect to the Property at any time prior to the Closing, shall be prorated upon Purchaser’s actual receipt of any such reimbursements, on the basis of the number of days of Seller and Purchaser’s respective ownership of the Property during the period in respect of which such reimbursements are payable; and Purchaser agrees to pay to Seller Seller’s pro rata portion of such reimbursements within forty-five (45) days after Purchaser’s receipt thereof. Conversely, if any tenant under any such Lease shall become entitled at any time after Closing to a refund of tenant reimbursements actually paid by such tenant prior to Closing, then, Seller shall, within forty-five (45) days following Purchaser’s demand therefor, pay to Purchaser an amount equal to Seller’s pro rata share of such reimbursement refund obligations, said proration to be calculated on the same basis as hereinabove set forth. Seller hereby retains its right to pursue any tenant under the Leases for sums due Seller for periods attributable to Seller’s ownership of the Property; provided, however, that Seller (i) shall only be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings after the date which is three (3) months after Closing, except that Seller shall be entitled to continue to pursue any legal proceedings commenced prior to Closing; and (ii) shall not be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings against any tenant seeking eviction of such tenant or the termination of the applicable Lease. The provisions of this Section 6.4(c) shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 6.4(c) relating to Seller’s retention of rights to pursue any tenant under the Leases shall survive indefinitely.

     (d) Percentage Rents. Percentage rents, if any, collected by Purchaser from any tenant under such tenant’s Lease for the percentage rent accounting period in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing Date, as, if, and when received by Purchaser, such that Seller’s pro rata share shall be an amount equal to the total percentage rentals paid for such percentage rent accounting period under the applicable Lease multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days in such accounting period prior to Closing and the denominator of which shall be the total number of days in such accounting period; provided, however, that such proration shall be made only at such time as such tenant is current or, after application of a portion of such payment, will be current in the payment of all rental and other charges under such tenant’s Lease that accrue and become due and payable from and after the Closing. The provisions of this Section 6.4(d) shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date.

     (e) Tenant Inducement Costs. Set forth on Exhibit “N” attached hereto and made a part hereof is a list of tenants at the Property with respect to which Tenant Inducement Costs and/or leasing commissions have not been paid in full as of the Effective Date. The responsibility for the payment of such Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions shall be allocated as between Seller and Purchaser as set forth on Exhibit “N”. All of such Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions set forth on Exhibit “N” become due and payable after the scheduled date for Closing under this Agreement. Accordingly, except as otherwise set forth in this Section 6.4(e), if said amounts which are the responsibility of Seller as set forth on Exhibit “N” have not been paid in full on or before the Closing Date, Purchaser shall assume such payment obligation at Closing, and Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the aggregate amount of the said unpaid Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions. Except as may be specifically provided to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of all Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions which become due and payable (whether before or after Closing) as a result of any renewals or extensions or expansions of existing Leases approved or deemed approved by Purchaser in accordance with Section 5.3(a) hereof between the Effective Date and the Closing Date and under any new Leases, approved or deemed approved by Purchaser in accordance with said Section 5.3(a) and, Purchaser will credit Seller at Closing with an amount equal to any such Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions that are Purchaser’s responsibility that have been paid by Seller prior to Closing. The provisions of this Section 6.4(e) shall survive the Closing.

     (f) Security Deposits. Purchaser shall receive at Closing a credit for all Security Deposits transferred and assigned to Purchaser at Closing in connection with the Leases. No Security Deposits shall be applied to any tenant default from and after the Effective Date through the Closing Date. In addition, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser at Closing any and all original letters of credit and other instruments held by Seller as security deposits under the Leases together with properly executed assignment documents required by transfer such letters of credit and other instruments to Purchaser (collectively, the “LOC Documents”). In the event any letter of credit or other instrument held by Seller as security deposits under the Leases is not assignable (such as a letter of credit that is not transferable), Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Purchaser, at no material cost to Seller, with the economic benefits of such property by enforcing such property (solely at Purchaser’s discretion) for the benefit and at the expense of Purchaser; provided Purchaser shall take all reasonable steps required (including making a demand on the tenant) to effectively transfer or reissue to Purchaser such security deposit promptly after Closing; and provided further that Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller against all claims, liabilities or expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising from a claim that Purchaser improperly exercised its rights under the letters of credit at any time after Closing. The obligations of Seller under this Section 7.1(g) shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the term of the applicable letter of credit, and the obligations of Purchaser under this Section 7.1(g) shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. Seller shall receive a credit at Closing in the amount of all refundable cash or other deposits posted with utility companies serving the Property which are duly assigned to Purchaser at Closing.

     (g) Operating Expenses. Personal property taxes, rent under the Ground Lease, installment payments of special assessment liens, vault charges, sewer charges, utility charges, and normally prorated operating expenses actually paid or payable as of the Closing Date shall be prorated as of the Closing Date and adjusted against the Purchase Price, provided that within ninety (90) days after the Closing, Purchaser and Seller will make a further adjustment for such taxes, charges and expenses which may have accrued or been incurred prior to the Closing Date, but not collected or paid at that date. In addition, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the close of the fiscal year(s) used in calculating the pass-through to tenants of operating expenses and/or common area maintenance costs under the Leases (where such fiscal year(s) include(s) the Closing Date), Seller and Purchaser shall, upon the request of either, re-prorate on a fair and equitable basis in order to adjust for the effect of any credits or payments due to or from tenants for periods prior to the Closing Date. All prorations shall be made based on the number of calendar days in such year or month, as the case may be. If possible, utility prorations will be handled by final meter readings on the Closing Date. If final readings are not possible, or if any such charges are not separately metered, such charges will be prorated on a fair and equitable basis utilizing the billing information for the most recent period(s) for which costs are available. Additionally, in the event Purchaser elects by written notice to Seller at least fifteen (15) days prior to Closing to take an assignment of any assignable environmental insurance policy pertaining to the Land and/or Improvements, the ten (10) year prepaid premium shall be prorated as of the Closing Date and adjusted against the Purchase Price, such proration to be made based on the number of days elapsed since the commencement of the policy. The provisions of this Section 6.4(g) shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “immaterial damage or destruction” shall mean such instances of damage or destruction: (i) which can be repaired or restored at a cost of $2,000,000.00 or less; (ii) which can be restored and repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of such damage or destruction; (iii) which are not so extensive as to allow tenants leasing more than five percent (5%) in the aggregate of the leased floor area of the Improvements to terminate their Leases on account of such damage or destruction; and (iv) in which Seller’s rights under its rent loss insurance policy covering the Property are assignable to Purchaser and will continue pending restoration and repair of the damage or destruction.

     In the event of any material damage or destruction to the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by notice to Seller given within the earlier of fifteen (15) days after Purchaser is notified by Seller of such damage or destruction (which Seller shall provide, in writing, promptly after Seller becomes aware of such damage or destruction), or the Closing Date, but in no event less than ten (10) days after Purchaser is notified by Seller of such damage or destruction (and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give Purchaser the full 10-day period to make such election): (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent shall immediately return the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money to Purchaser, or (ii) proceed to close under this Agreement, receive (and Seller will assign to Purchaser at the Closing Seller’s rights under insurance policies to receive) any insurance proceeds (including any rent loss insurance applicable to the period on or after the Closing Date) due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction (less any amounts reasonably expended for restoration or collection of proceeds) and

assume responsibility for such repair, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible amount under said insurance policies. If Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller notice of its election within the period set forth above, Purchaser will conclusively be deemed to have elected to proceed with the Closing as provided in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. If Purchaser elects clause (ii) above, Seller will cooperate with Purchaser after the Closing to assist Purchaser in obtaining the insurance proceeds from Seller’s insurers. For purposes of this Agreement “material damage or destruction” shall mean all instances of damage or destruction that are not immaterial, as defined herein.

     8.2. Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of the Property is taken by eminent domain or condemnation (or sale in lieu thereof), or if Seller has received written notice that any condemnation action or proceeding with respect to the Property is contemplated by a body having the power of eminent domain (collectively, a “Taking”), Seller shall give Purchaser prompt written notice of such Taking. In the event of any immaterial Taking with respect to the Property or any portion thereof, Seller and Purchaser shall proceed to close under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “immaterial Taking” shall mean such instances of Taking of a Property: (i) which do not result in a taking of any portion of the building structure of the building occupied by tenants on the Property; (ii) which do not result in a decrease in the number of parking spaces at the Property (taking into account the number of additional parking spaces that can be provided within 180 days of such Taking); and (iii) which are not so extensive as to allow a tenant to terminate its Lease or ▇▇▇▇▇ or reduce rent payable thereunder unless business loss or rent insurance (subject to applicable deductibles) or condemnation award proceeds shall be available in the full amount of such abatement or reduction, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for such deductible amount on account of such Taking.

     In the event of any material Taking of the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by written notice to Seller given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice from Seller, elect to terminate this Agreement, or Purchaser may choose to proceed to close. If Purchaser chooses to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 8.2, then the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned immediately to Purchaser by Escrow Agent and the rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities of the parties hereunder shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect, except for those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement “material Taking “ shall mean all instances of a Taking that are not immaterial, as defined herein.

     If Purchaser does not elect to, or has no right to, terminate this Agreement in accordance herewith on account of a Taking, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the sale of the Property contemplated by this Agreement, less any interest taken by eminent domain or condemnation, or sale in lieu thereof, shall be effected with no further adjustment and without reduction of the Purchase Price, and at the Closing, Seller shall assign, transfer, and set over to Purchaser all of the right, title, and interest of Seller in and to any awards applicable to the Property that have been or that may thereafter be made for such Taking. At such time as all or a part of the Property is subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation and Purchaser shall not have elected to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 8.2, (i) Purchaser shall thereafter be permitted to participate in the proceedings as if Purchaser were a party to the

action, and (ii) Seller shall not settle or agree to any award or payment pursuant to condemnation, eminent domain, or sale in lieu thereof without obtaining Purchaser’s prior written consent thereto in each case.

ARTICLE 9.
DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

     9.1. Purchaser’s Default. If Purchaser fails to consummate this transaction for any reason other than Seller’s default, failure of a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close, or the exercise by Purchaser of an express right of termination granted herein, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy hereunder, to terminate this Agreement and to receive and retain the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money as full liquidated damages for such default of Purchaser, the parties hereto acknowledging that it is impossible to estimate more precisely the damages which might be suffered by Seller upon Purchaser’s default, and that said ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money is a reasonable estimate of Seller’s probable loss in the event of default by Purchaser. The retention by Seller of said ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money is intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages. The right to retain the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money as full liquidated damages is Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of default hereunder by Purchaser, and Seller hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) ▇▇▇ the Purchaser: (a) for specific performance of this Agreement, or (b) to recover actual damages in excess of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money. The foregoing liquidated damages provision shall not apply to or limit Purchaser’s liability for Purchaser’s obligations under Sections 3.1(c), 3.4 and 11.1 of this Agreement or for Purchaser’s obligation to pay to Seller all attorney’s fees and costs of Seller to enforce the provisions of this Section 9.1. Purchaser hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) ▇▇▇ Seller or seek or claim a refund of said ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money (or any part thereof) on the grounds it is unreasonable in amount and exceeds Seller’s actual damages or that its retention by Seller constitutes a penalty and not agreed upon and reasonable liquidated damages.

     9.2. Seller’s Default. If Seller fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement for any reason other than Purchaser’s default or the permitted termination of this Agreement by Seller or Purchaser as expressly provided herein, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy, either (a) to receive the return of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money from Escrow Agent, which return shall operate to terminate this Agreement and release Seller from any and all liability hereunder, or (b) to enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligation to execute and deliver the documents required to convey the Property to Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement; it being specifically understood and agreed that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller hereunder. Purchaser expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event of Seller’s default hereunder; provided, however, if the remedy of specific performance is not legally available to Purchaser due to an intentional breach by Seller or due to Seller’s transfer of the Property to a third party, Purchaser shall be entitled to pursue its actual damages as a result of such breach (but not consequential, indirect or punitive damages). Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and to receive a return of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money from Escrow Agent if Purchaser fails to file suit for specific performance against Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the county and state in which the Property is located, on or before one hundred twenty (120) days following the date upon which the Closing was to have occurred.

ARTICLE 10.
ASSIGNMENT

     10.1. Assignment. Subject to the next following sentence and to Section 13.16, this Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable by any party without the written consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, this Agreement and Purchaser’s rights hereunder may be transferred and assigned to any entity controlled by Purchaser. Any assignee or transferee under any such assignment or transfer by Purchaser as to which Seller’s written consent has been given or as to which Seller’s consent is not required hereunder shall expressly assume all of Purchaser’s duties, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement by written instrument delivered to Seller as a condition to the effectiveness of such assignment or transfer. No assignment or transfer shall relieve the original Purchaser of any duties or obligations hereunder, and the written assignment and assumption instrument shall expressly so provide. For purposes of this Section 10.1, the term “control” shall mean the ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) of the applicable entity. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to create any rights in or to be enforceable in any part by any other persons.

ARTICLE 11.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS

     11.1. Broker. Upon the Closing, and only in the event the Closing occurs, Seller shall pay a brokerage commission to CB ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. (the “Broker”) pursuant to a separate agreement between Seller and Broker. Broker is representing Seller in this transaction. Seller shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage, and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred and costs of litigation, Purchaser shall ever suffer or incur because of any claim by any agent, salesman, or broker, whether or not meritorious, for any fee, commission or other compensation with regard to this Agreement or the sale and purchase of the Property contemplated hereby, and arising out of any acts or agreements of Seller, including any claims asserted by Broker. Likewise, Purchaser shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Seller free and harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage, and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred and costs of litigation, Seller shall ever suffer or incur because of any claim by any agent, salesman, or broker, whether or not meritorious, for any fee, commission or other compensation with respect to this Agreement or the sale and purchase of the Property contemplated hereby and arising out of the acts or agreements of Purchaser. This Section 11.1 shall survive the Closing until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations and shall survive any earlier termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 12.
INDEMNIFICATION

     12.1. Indemnification by Seller. Following the Closing and subject to Sections 12.3 and 12.4, Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser, and its affiliates, members, managers and partners, and the members, managers, trustees, beneficiaries, partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents of each of the foregoing, including, specifically, but not by limitation, Equity Office Properties Trust, EOP Operating Limited Partnership and Equity Office Management, L.L.C. (collectively, “Purchaser-Related Entities”) harmless from and against any and all costs, fees, expenses, damages, deficiencies, interest and penalties (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) suffered or incurred by any such indemnified party in connection with any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses (“Losses”), arising out of, or in any way relating to, (a) any breach of any representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any Closing Document or in any Seller Estoppel, and (b) any breach of any covenant of Seller contained in this Agreement which survives the Closing or in any Closing Document or in any Seller Estoppel (including specifically, but not limited to, the agreement to reprorate pursuant to Section 6.4). By its execution of the Joinder attached to and made a part of this Agreement, Cousins hereby agrees to satisfy any actual and valid liability of Seller to Purchaser after Closing which arises under this Agreement up to but not in excess of the Cap Limitation in the event Seller has dissolved or does not have sufficient assets to satisfy such liability. Except for the undertakings of Cousins pursuant to the Joinder, no Seller-Related Entity, or any entity that becomes a Seller-Related Entity, shall have any personal liability, directly or indirectly, under or in connection with this Agreement or any agreement made or entered into under or pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, or any amendment or amendments to any of the foregoing made at any time or times, heretofore or hereafter, and Purchaser and its successors and assigns and, without limitation, all other persons and entities, shall look solely to Seller’s assets for the payment of any claim or for any performance, and Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby waives any and all such personal liability.

     12.2. Indemnification by Purchaser. Following the Closing and subject to Section 12.4, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller, and its affiliates, members, managers and partners, and the members, managers, trustees, beneficiaries, partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents of each of the foregoing, including specifically, but not by limitation, Cousins (collectively, “Seller-Related Entities”) harmless from any and all Losses arising out of, or in any way relating to (a) any breach of any representation or warranty by Purchaser contained in this Agreement or in any Closing Document, and (b) any breach of any covenant of Purchaser contained in this Agreement which survives the Closing or in any Closing Documents (including specifically, but not limited to, the agreement to reprorate pursuant to Section 6.4).

     12.3. Limitations on Indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 12.1, (a) Seller shall not be required to indemnify Purchaser or any Purchaser Related Entities under this Agreement unless the aggregate of all amounts for which an indemnity would otherwise be payable by Seller under Section 12.1 above exceeds the Basket Limitation (in which event Seller’s indemnity shall be for all such amounts), (b) in no event shall the liability of Seller with respect to the indemnification provided for in Section 12.1 above exceed in the aggregate the Cap Limitation, (c) if prior to the Closing, Purchaser obtains knowledge of any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Seller contained in this Agreement (a “Purchaser Waived Breach”) and nonetheless proceeds with and consummates the

Closing, then Purchaser and any Purchaser-Related Entities shall be deemed to have waived and forever renounced any right to assert a claim for indemnification under this Article 12 for, or any other claim or cause of action under this Agreement, at law or in equity on account of any such Purchaser Waived Breach, and (d) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Basket Limitation and the Cap Limitation shall not apply with respect to Losses suffered or incurred as a result of breaches of any covenant or agreement of Seller set forth in Section 6.3, Section 6.4, or Section 11.1 of this Agreement.

     12.4. Survival. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement and the Closing Documents shall survive for a period of one (1) year after the Closing unless a longer or shorter survival period is expressly provided for in this Agreement, or unless on or before the date that is one (1) year following the Closing, Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, delivers written notice to the other party of such alleged breach specifying with reasonable detail the nature of such alleged breach and files an action with respect thereto within one hundred twenty (120) days after the giving of such notice.

     12.5. Indemnification as Sole Remedy. If the Closing has occurred, the sole and exclusive remedy available to a party in the event of a breach by the other party to this Agreement of any representation, warranty, or covenant or other provision of this Agreement for any Closing Document which survives the Closing shall be the indemnifications provided for under Sections 3.1(c), Section 11.1 and this Article 12.

     13.2 Possession. Full and exclusive possession of the Property, subject to the Permitted Exceptions and the rights of the tenants under the Leases, shall be delivered by Seller to Purchaser on the Closing Date.

     13.3 Time Periods. If the time period by which any right, option, or election provided under this Agreement must be exercised, or by which any act required hereunder must be performed, or by which the Closing must be held, expires on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday, then such time period shall be automatically extended through the close of business on the next regularly scheduled Business Day.

     13.4 Publicity. The parties agree that, prior to Closing, except as may be required by law and except as hereinafter provided, no party shall, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, contact or conduct negotiations with public officials, make any public announcements or issue press releases regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to any third party without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. Seller and Purchaser shall each have the right to approve the press release of the other party issued in connection with the Closing, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that the inclusion of the following information shall be expressly permitted in a press release of either party without the consent of the other party: a description of the Property, the Purchase Price, the name of the other party and the Closing Date. No party shall record this Agreement or any notice hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) Purchaser may also make disclosures in accordance with, or as required by, the disclosure requirements applicable to Equity Office Properties Trust (the “Trust”), which is an indirect parent of Purchaser, or its affiliates, due to the Trust’s status as a publicly-held company listed on the New York Stock Exchange or any other securities exchange (an “Exchange”) (including, but not limited to, any disclosures in accordance with, or as required by, the rules of, or any listing agreement with, an Exchange) and (ii) Seller may also make disclosures in accordance with, or as required by, the disclosure requirements applicable to Cousins, which is

an indirect parent of Seller, due to Cousins’ status as a publicly-held company listed on an Exchange (including, but not limited to, any disclosures in accordance with, or as required by, the rules of, or any listing agreement with, an Exchange).

     13.5 Intentionally Omitted.

     13.6 Severability. This Agreement is intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall, for any reason and to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby but rather shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.

     13.7 Construction. This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the fact that this Agreement may have been prepared by counsel for one of the parties, it being mutually acknowledged and agreed that Seller and Purchaser and their respective counsel have contributed substantially and materially to the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. Accordingly, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits or amendments hereto.

     13.8 Sale Notification Letters. Promptly following the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver the Tenant Notices of Sale to each of the respective tenants under the Leases and the Other Notices of Sale to each service provider and leasing agent, the obligations under whose respective Service Contracts and Commission Agreements Purchaser has assumed at Closing. The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing.

     13.9 Access to Records Following Closing. Purchaser agrees that for a period of two (2) years following the Closing, Seller shall have the right during regular business hours, on five (5) days’ written notice to Purchaser, to examine and review at Purchaser’s office (or, at Purchaser’s election, at the Property), the books and records relating to the ownership and operation of the Property which were delivered by Seller to Purchaser at the Closing to the extent still in Purchaser’s possession; provided nothing contained herein shall obligate Purchaser in any way to retain such books and records. Likewise, Seller agrees that for a period of two (2) years following the Closing, Purchaser shall have the right during regular business hours, on five (5) days’ written notice to Seller, to examine and review at Seller’s office, all books, records and files, if any, retained by Seller relating to the ownership and operation of the Property by Seller prior to the Closing. The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing for a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date.

     13.10 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of Purchaser and Seller irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of (a) the District Court of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ County, Texas located in Austin, Texas, and (b) the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Each of Purchaser and Seller further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth above shall be

effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in Texas with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above in the immediately preceding sentence. Each of Purchaser and Seller irrevocably and unconditionally waives trial by jury and irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in (a) the District Court of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ County, Texas located in Austin, Texas, and (b) the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

     13.11 Entire Agreement . Except as provided in this Section 13.11, this Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties hereto, and no representations, inducements, promises, or agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties not embodied herein shall be of any force or effect. The terms and provisions of that certain Access Agreement dated July 27, 2006, and that certain Confidentiality Agreement dated May 26, 2006 by and between Seller and Purchaser are hereby incorporated herein and shall remain in full force and effect, except that, to the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of said Access and Confidentiality Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern and control.

     13.12 General Provisions. No failure of either party to exercise any power given hereunder or to insist upon strict compliance with any obligation specified herein, and no custom or practice at variance with the terms hereof, shall constitute a waiver of either party’s right to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof. Any amendment to this Agreement shall not be binding upon Seller or Purchaser unless such amendment is in writing and executed by both Seller and Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.1 hereof, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and permitted assigns. Time is of the essence in this Agreement. The headings inserted at the beginning of each paragraph are for convenience only, and do not add to or subtract from the meaning of the contents of each paragraph. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Texas. Except as otherwise provided herein, all rights, powers, and privileges conferred hereunder upon the parties shall be cumulative but not restrictive to those given by law. All personal pronouns used in this Agreement, whether used in the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender shall include all genders, and all references herein to the singular shall include the plural and vice versa.

     13.13 Attorney’s Fees. If Purchaser or Seller brings an action at law or equity against the other in order to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or as a result of an alleged default under this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to recover court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees actually incurred from the other.

     13.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same original. To facilitate the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the parties may execute and exchange counterparts of the signature pages by facsimile, and the signature page of either party to any counterpart may be appended to any other counterpart.

     13.15 Effective Agreement. The submission of this Agreement for examination is not intended to nor shall constitute an offer to sell, or a reservation of, or option or proposal of any kind for the purchase of the Property. In no event shall any draft of this Agreement create any obligation or liability, it being understood that this Agreement shall be effective and binding only when a counterpart of this Agreement has been executed and delivered by each party hereto.

     13.16 Section 1031 Exchange. Either Purchaser, Seller or both may elect that its transfer or acquisition of the Property occur as part of a tax-deferred exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, including a reverse exchange. Each of Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate with the other and shall sign all documents reasonably necessary to accomplish any exchange (including assignment of Purchaser’s rights in this Agreement and delivery of the deed to a third party or facilitator), provided the cooperating party incurs no additional expense (above ordinary copying, transmittal and document review time) and no liability, and the Closing is not delayed, as a result thereof.
