Exhibit 10.2

2.3 Review of Commitment and Survey. For purposes hereof, the term “Title Review Period” shall mean the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending ten (10) days after receipt by Purchaser of the last of the Commitment, copies of the Title Exceptions, and the Survey. Purchaser shall have the Title Review Period within which to notify Seller in writing of such objections as Purchaser may have to anything contained in the Commitment, the Title Exceptions or the Survey; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not have the right to object to any Permitted Exceptions described in section 2.5 below. If Purchaser fails to object in writing to any item contained in the Commitment, the Title Exceptions or the Survey during the Title Review Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to such item, and such item shall thereafter be deemed a Permitted Exception. In the event that Purchaser objects to any item contained in the Commitment, the Title Exceptions or the Survey within the Title Review Period (such items being herein referred to as “Title Defects”), Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) days following the date of Purchaser’s notice of such Title Defects (the “Cure Period”) that either (a) the Title Defects have been, or will be at or prior to Closing, removed from the Commitment or the Survey, as the case may be, or (b) Seller has failed to arrange to have the Title Defects removed.
2.4 Failure to Cure Title Defects. If upon the expiration of the Cure Period Seller has not notified Purchaser that Seller has arranged to have the Title Defects removed, then Purchaser may elect (which election must be made in writing within five (5) business days following expiration of the Cure Period) either: (a) to terminate this Agreement, in which event the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned to Purchaser as Purchaser’s sole remedy hereunder; or (b) to take title as it then is. If Purchaser does not, within five (5) business days after the expiration of the Cure Period, send written notice to Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (a) of the preceding sentence, then: (x) Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to take title as it then is without any reduction in the Purchase Price; (y) all Title Defects not removed from the Commitment or the Survey will thenceforth be deemed Permitted Exceptions; and (z) this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Anything to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, Seller shall have no affirmative obligation hereunder to expend any funds or incur any liabilities in order to cause any matters shown in the Commitment, the Title Exceptions or the Survey to be removed, cured or insured over, except that Seller shall pay or discharge liens and security interests securing any loan to Seller, and no such liens shall be Permitted Exceptions for any purpose in this Agreement.
2.5 Other Permitted Exceptions. In addition to those matters shown in the Commitment, the Title Exceptions and the Survey which become Permitted Exceptions pursuant to section 2.3 and section 2.4 above, the following shall also be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions: (a) the Leases; (b) taxes and standby fees for the year in which Closing occurs that are not yet due and payable; and (c) liens and encumbrances arising after the Effective Date to which Purchaser consents in writing.
2.6 Owner Title Policy. Subject to the provisions of section 2.4, promptly after the Closing Date Seller shall cause the Title Company to issue an owner’s title insurance policy (the “Title Policy”) insuring fee simple title in Purchaser as of the Closing Date, in accordance with the Commitment, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.
2.7 Expiration of Inspection Period. It is the intent of the parties that the right granted to Purchaser to terminate this Agreement shall expire upon the expiration of the Inspection Period, notwithstanding that the Title Review Period, the Cure Period or any election period may extend beyond the expiration of the Inspection Period. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Purchaser has not terminated this Agreement pursuant to section 2.4(a) prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, then Purchaser shall no longer have any right to terminate this Agreement under section 2.4(a), and in such event Purchaser shall be bound to accept title to the Property under the conditions specified in sections 2.4(x), 2.4(y) and 2.4(z) above.

Exhibit 10.2

2.8 New Title Defects. In the event that, after the expiration of the Inspection Period and prior to Closing, a revision of the Commitment or the Survey reveals an adverse matter objectionable to Purchaser that was not disclosed to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period and is not a Permitted Exception (a “New Title Defect”), Purchaser shall have five (5) business days after such matter is disclosed to Purchaser to send written notice to Seller of such New Title Defect (it being agreed that if Purchaser fails to object to the New Title Defect within such five (5) business day period, then such New Title Defect shall thereafter be deemed a Permitted Exception). Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) business days following the date of Purchaser’s notice of such New Title Defect (the “New Title Defect Cure Period”) that either (a) the New Title Defect has been, or will be at or prior to Closing, removed from the Commitment or the Survey, as the case may be, or (b) Seller has failed to arrange to have the New Title Defect removed. If, upon the expiration of the New Title Defect Cure Period, Seller has not notified Purchaser that Seller has arranged to have the New Title Defect removed, then Purchaser may elect (which election must be made in writing within five (5) business days following expiration of the New Title Defect Cure Period and the Closing Date shall be extended to the extent necessary to accommodate such five (5) business day period) either: (i) to terminate this Agreement as Purchaser’s sole remedy hereunder (in which event the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned to Purchaser); or (ii) to take title as it then is. If Purchaser does not, within five (5) business days after the expiration of the New Title Defect Cure Period, send written notice to Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, then (x) Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to take title as it then is without any reduction in the Purchase Price; (y) the New Title Defect will thenceforth be deemed a Permitted Exception; and (z) this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
ARTICLE III

Within five (5) business days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver or make available to Purchaser at the Property or at Seller’s office in Dallas, Texas, to the extent in Seller’s possession or control, the documents described on Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes (the “Property Documents”). Purchaser shall, if requested by Seller, execute instruments acknowledging receipt of the Property Documents or any other document delivered or made available to Purchaser in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby. During the Inspection Period (as hereinafter defined), Purchaser may inspect the Property Documents during normal business hours and may photocopy same at Purchaser’s expense. With respect to any environmental report or other report described in Exhibit B which Seller delivers to Purchaser, Purchaser understands and agrees that (a) such report shall be delivered to Purchaser for general information purposes only, (b) Purchaser shall not have any right to rely on any report received from Seller and will not rely thereon, but rather will rely on inspections and reports performed by or on behalf of Purchaser, and (c) Seller shall have absolutely no liability for any inaccuracy in or omission from any report which it delivers to Purchaser.

Exhibit 10.2

3.2 Right of Inspection. During the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending at 5 p.m., Dallas, Texas time, on June 20, 2011 (the “Inspection Period”), Purchaser and its representatives (including Purchaser’s architects, engineers and consultants) shall have the right to examine the Property Documents and to make a physical inspection of the Property (including the right to conduct such soil, engineering, environmental, hazardous or toxic material, noise pollution, seismic or other physical test, study or investigation as Purchaser may desire, provided, however, that Purchaser must obtain Seller’s consent to any physically invasive testing). In this regard, subject to the rights of tenants of the Property, Purchaser and its authorized agents and representatives shall be entitled to enter upon the Property at all reasonable times during the Inspection Period, upon reasonable prior oral or written notice to Seller, and a representative of Seller may accompany Purchaser. All activities by Purchaser or its representatives during the Inspection Period shall be coordinated through either ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇) or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇), including, but not limited to, contact with tenants, and Seller shall have the right to have a representative present during any meetings with tenants. All inspections shall occur at reasonable times agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser and shall be conducted so as not to unreasonably interfere with use of the Property by Seller or tenants of the Property. In no event shall Purchaser or its representatives perform any off-site testing. Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any disruption or interference caused by any such testing and will repair all damage caused by such testing. Before and during Purchaser inspections, Purchaser and each Purchaser representative conducting any Purchaser inspection shall maintain workers’ compensation insurance in accordance with applicable law, and Purchaser, or the applicable Purchaser representative conducting any Purchaser inspection, shall maintain (a) commercial general liability insurance with limits of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) for bodily or personal injury or death, (b) property damage insurance in the amount of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), and (c) contractual liability insurance. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller evidence of such workers’ compensation insurance and a certificate evidencing the commercial general liability, property damage and contractual liability insurance before conducting any Purchaser inspection on the Property. Each such insurance policy shall be written by a reputable insurance company having a rating of at least “A” by Best’s Rating Guide (or a comparable rating by a successor rating service), and shall otherwise be subject to Seller’s prior approval. Such insurance policies shall name as additional insureds Seller and its designated affiliates and Seller’s lender. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller and the Property harmless of and from any and all losses, liabilities, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of court), damages, liens, claims (including, without limitation, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens or claims of liens), actions and causes of actions arising from or relating to Purchaser’s (or Purchaser’s agents, employees or representatives) entering upon the Property to test, study, investigate or inspect the same or any part thereof, whether pursuant to this section 3.2 or otherwise, except to the extent arising from (i) the negligence or willful misconduct of Seller, (ii) Purchaser’s discovery of adverse facts or conditions with respect to the Property, which facts or conditions were not otherwise caused by Purchaser’s activities on the Property, (iii) any pre-existing condition on the Property, or (iv) any cause against which Seller is insured, to the extent Seller actually collects insurance proceeds, and Seller herby waives any rights of recovery it has against Purchaser due to any loss or damage arising from any such causes. The foregoing indemnity of Purchaser shall expressly survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.
3.3 Right of Termination Seller agrees that in the event Purchaser determines, in its sole discretion, that the Property is not suitable for its purposes, then Purchaser shall have the right (“Purchaser’s Termination Right”) to terminate this Agreement. Purchaser’s Termination Right shall be exercisable only by sending written notice of termination (the “Notice of Termination”) to Seller on or prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period. In the event that Purchaser timely exercises Purchaser’s Termination Right, this Agreement shall terminate and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned to Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to send Seller a Notice of Termination prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the Property Documents and the Property in all respects and Purchaser’s Termination Right shall automatically and irrevocably expire.
3.4 Payment of Certain Expenses Upon Termination. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that Purchaser exercises Purchaser’s Termination Right, Seller shall be responsible for payment of any escrow costs charged by the Title Company in connection with this Agreement.

Exhibit 10.2

3.5 Operating Contracts. On or prior to the last day of the Inspection Period, Purchaser will advise Seller in writing of which Operating Contracts it will assume and for which Operating Contracts Purchaser requests that Seller deliver written termination at or prior to Closing; provided, however, that Seller shall have no obligation to terminate, and Purchaser shall be obligated to assume, the Operating Contracts listed on Exhibit C attached hereto. On or before the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined), Seller shall deliver notices of termination of all Operating Contracts that are not so assumed. Purchaser must assume the obligations arising from and after the Closing Date under those Operating Contracts (a) that Purchaser has agreed to assume, or that Purchaser is obligated to assume pursuant to this section 3.5, and (b) for which a termination notice is delivered as of or prior to Closing but for which termination is not effective until after Closing. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller shall cause all management agreements in effect with respect to the Property to be terminated as of the Closing Date.

4.4 Income and Expenses. Certain income and expenses in respect to the Property shall be allocated between Seller and Purchaser as follows or as otherwise agreed in writing between Seller and Purchaser:
|
Exhibit 10.2
|
(a) Seller and Purchaser agree to adjust, as of 11:59 p.m. Dallas, Texas time on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Time”), the following (collectively, the “Proration Items”): real estate and personal property taxes and assessments, utility bills (except as hereinafter provided), collected Rentals (defined below) and Operating Expenses (defined below) payable by the owner of the Property (subject to the terms of (c) below). Seller will be charged and credited for the amounts of all of the Proration Items relating to the period up to and including the Closing Time, and Purchaser will be charged and credited for all of the Proration Items relating to the period after the Closing Time. Such preliminary estimated Closing prorations shall be set forth on a preliminary closing statement to be prepared by Seller and submitted to Purchaser for Purchaser’s approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) at least three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Statement”). The Closing Statement, once agreed upon, shall be signed by Purchaser and Seller and delivered to the Title Company for purposes of making the preliminary proration adjustment at Closing subject to the final cash settlement provided for below. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between Seller and Purchaser, the preliminary proration shall be paid at Closing by Purchaser to Seller (if the preliminary prorations result in a net credit to Seller) or by Seller to Purchaser (if the preliminary prorations result in a net credit to Purchaser) by increasing or reducing the cash to be delivered by Purchaser in payment of the Purchase Price at the Closing. If the actual amounts of the Proration Items are not known as of the Closing Time, the prorations will be made at Closing on the basis of the best evidence then available; thereafter, when actual figures are received, re-prorations will be made on the basis of the actual figures, and a final cash settlement will be made between Seller and Purchaser. No prorations will be made in relation to insurance premiums, and Seller’s insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser. Final readings and final ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for utilities will be made if possible as of the Closing Time, in which event no proration will be made at the Closing with respect to utility bills. Seller will be entitled to receive all deposits presently in effect with the utility providers, and Purchaser will be obligated to make its own arrangements for deposits with the utility providers.
(b) Purchaser will receive a credit on the Closing Statement for the prorated amount (as of the Closing Time) of all Rentals previously paid to or collected by Seller and attributable to any period following the Closing Time. After the Closing, Seller will cause to be paid or turned over to Purchaser all Rentals, if any, received by Seller after Closing and attributable to any period following the Closing Time. “Rentals” as used herein includes fixed monthly rentals, additional rentals, percentage rentals, escalation rentals (which include each tenant’s pro rata share of operating costs and expenses as provided for under the applicable Lease, to the extent the same exceeds any expense stop specified in such Lease), retroactive rentals, all administrative charges, utility charges, tenant or real property association dues, storage rentals, and other sums and charges payable by tenants under the Leases or from other occupants or users of the Property. Rentals are “Delinquent” when they were due prior to the Closing Time and payment thereof has not been made on or before the Closing Time. Delinquent Rentals will not be prorated. Purchaser agrees to use commercially reasonable collection procedures with respect to the collection of any Delinquent Rentals, but Purchaser will have no liability for the failure to collect any such amounts and will not be required to conduct lock-outs or file a lawsuit to enforce collection of any such amounts owed to Seller by tenants of the Property. All sums collected by Purchaser from and after Closing from each tenant (excluding tenant specific ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for tenant work orders and other specific services as described in and governed by paragraph (d) below) will be applied first to current amounts owed by such tenant to Purchaser, then to prior delinquencies owed by such tenant to Purchaser, and then to prior delinquencies owed by such tenant to Seller. Any such sums due Seller will be promptly remitted to Seller net of Purchaser’s reasonable costs of collection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, after the Closing Date Seller may collect Delinquent Rentals, amounts owed for Operating Expenses and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for tenant work orders directly from tenants, provided, however, in no event will Seller have the right to threaten or institute any legal proceeding to collect such Delinquent Rentals, or threaten the termination of or terminate any Lease, and Purchaser shall have no obligation to collect any Delinquent Rentals after Seller begins collection efforts with respect to such Delinquent Rentals.

(c) Seller will prepare a reconciliation as of the Closing Time of the amounts of all ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and charges to tenants for operating expenses and tax escalations (collectively, “Operating Expenses”). If more amounts have been incurred for Operating Expenses than have been collected from tenants for Operating Expenses, Purchaser will pay such difference to Seller at such time as Purchaser has recovered such amounts from the tenants. If more amounts have been collected from tenants for Operating Expenses than have been incurred for Operating Expenses, Seller will pay to Purchaser at Closing as a credit against the Purchase Price such excess collected amount, unless otherwise agreed in writing between Seller and Purchaser. Purchaser and Seller agree that such proration of Operating Expenses at Closing will fully relieve Seller from any responsibility to tenants or Purchaser for such matters subject to Seller’s and Purchaser’s right and obligation to finalize prorations as set forth in paragraph (a) above. In this regard, Purchaser will be solely responsible, from and after Closing, for (i) collecting from tenants the amount of any outstanding Operating Expenses for periods before and after Closing, and (ii) where appropriate, reimbursing tenants for amounts attributable to Operating Expenses, as may be necessary based on annual reconciliations for Operating Expenses.
(d) Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of (i) all Tenant Inducement Costs (as hereinafter defined) and leasing commissions which become due and payable (whether before or after Closing) (A) as a result of any renewals or expansions of existing Leases which occur between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, and (B) under any new Leases (including any amendments of existing Leases) entered into between the Effective Date and the Closing Date which have been approved by Purchaser; and (ii) all Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions which become due and payable from and after the Closing Date. If as of the Closing Date Seller shall have paid any Tenant Inducement Costs or leasing commissions for which Purchaser is responsible pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller therefor at Closing. Seller shall supply invoices and statements for all such Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions to Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date. For purposes hereof, the term “Tenant Inducement Costs” means reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with the preparation and negotiation of a new Lease or a renewal or expansion of an existing Lease and any out-of-pocket payments required under a Lease to be paid by the landlord thereunder to or for the benefit of the tenant thereunder which is in the nature of a tenant inducement, including specifically, without limitation, tenant improvement costs, lease buyout costs, and moving, design, refurbishment and club membership allowances. The term “Tenant Inducement Costs” shall not include loss of income resulting from any free rental period, it being agreed that Seller shall bear the loss resulting from any free rental period until the Closing Date and that Purchaser shall bear such loss from and after the Closing Date.
(e) The Personal Property is included in this sale, without further charge, except that each party shall bear fifty percent (50%) of the amount of any and all sales or similar taxes payable in connection with the Personal Property which is to be transferred to Purchaser under this Agreement and each party shall execute and deliver any tax returns required of it under applicable tax law in connection therewith.
(f) The provisions of this section 4.4 will survive the Closing for twelve (12) months after Closing.
4.5 Closing Costs. Costs of the Title Company and other Closing costs incurred in connection with the Closing will be allocated as follows:
(a) Seller will pay (i) the cost of the Survey, (ii) the basic premium for the Title Policy (excluding the costs of any endorsements), (iii) one-half (1/2) of all of the Title Company’s escrow and closing fees, if any, (iv) any fees required to record a satisfaction, discharge or release of any lien Seller is required to discharge hereunder, (v) any costs and expenses in connection with the transfer of any Deposits held in the form of a letter of credit, and (vi) Seller’s attorneys’ fees.

5.3 Survival of Representations. It is the intent of Seller and Purchaser that the representations and warranties made by Seller in section 5.1 above (the “Seller Obligations”) shall survive Closing for a period of three hundred sixty five (365) days after the date of Closing. Accordingly, Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any provision of law to the contrary, any action which may be brought under this Agreement by Purchaser against Seller for breach of any Seller Obligations shall be forever barred unless Purchaser (a) delivers to Seller no later than three hundred sixty five (365) days after the date of Closing a written notice of its claim setting forth in reasonable detail the factual basis for such claim and Purchaser’s good faith estimate of its damages arising out of such claim, and (b) files a complaint or petition against Seller alleging such claim in an appropriate state or federal court in Dallas County, Texas, no later than two (2) years after the date of Closing. In no event shall Seller be liable after the date of Closing for its breach of any Seller Obligations if such breach was actually known to Purchaser prior to the completion of Closing. With respect to any matter constituting breach of a Seller Obligation, Purchaser shall first seek any available recovery under any insurance policies, service contracts and Leases prior to seeking recovery from Seller, and Seller shall not be liable to Purchaser if Purchaser’s claim is satisfied from such insurance policies, service contracts or Leases. Seller’s liability for breach of any Seller Obligations shall be limited as follows: (i) Seller shall have liability for breach of Seller Obligations only if the valid claims for all such breaches collectively aggregate more than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), in which event the full amount of such claims shall be actionable, and (ii) Seller’s aggregate liability to Purchaser for breaches of the Seller Obligations shall not exceed the amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the “Cap”), it being agreed that in no event shall Seller’s aggregate liability for such breaches exceed the amount of the Cap.

(d) A copy of each Lease, all amendments, modifications, expansions or renewals of any Lease and any proposal for a new Lease presented to Seller between the Effective Date and the Closing Date for its approval and execution will be submitted to Purchaser within two (2) business days after receipt by Seller, but in all events prior to execution by Seller.

All references in this Agreement to the “actual knowledge” of Seller shall refer only to the actual knowledge of the Designated Employee (as hereinafter defined) of the Dallas, Texas office of Seller and shall not be construed to refer to the knowledge of any other officer, agent or employee of Seller or any affiliate of Seller or to impose upon such Designated Employee any duty to investigate the matter to which such actual knowledge, or the absence thereof, pertains. As used herein, the term “Designated Employee” shall refer to ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, who are employees of Seller (or an affiliate) with responsibility for overseeing the management of the Property, among other assets of Seller and its affiliates.

ARTICLE VI
DEFAULT; REMEDIES
6.1 Default of Purchaser. In the event Purchaser fails to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement for any reason except failure by Seller to perform hereunder or the permitted termination hereof by Purchaser or Seller in accordance with the express provisions hereof, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, to terminate this Agreement and recover the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, in full satisfaction of claims against Purchaser hereunder. Seller and Purchaser agree that Seller’s damages resulting from Purchaser’s default are difficult, if not impossible, to determine and that the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money is a fair estimate of those damages which has been agreed to in an effort to cause the amount of said damages to be certain. In the event of Purchaser’s default and notwithstanding anything in this section 6.1 to the contrary, if Purchaser or any party related to or affiliated with Purchaser asserts any claim to the Property that clouds Seller’s title thereto, and if such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be without merit, then Seller shall have all remedies available at law or in equity against Purchaser for Purchaser’s default hereunder.
6.2 Default of Seller. In the event Seller fails to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement for any reason except failure by Purchaser to perform hereunder or the permitted termination hereof by Purchaser or Seller in accordance with the express provisions hereof, Purchaser shall have the right, as its sole and exclusive remedy, either (a) to declare this Agreement terminated by written notice to Seller and to receive back the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money (together with all interest earned thereon) and recover from Seller liquidated damages equal to the out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by Purchaser and paid or owed to third parties in connection with its inspection of the Property and its pursuit of the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement, up to the amount of Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), it being agreed that the payment of such amount shall constitute a release of Seller from all obligations hereunder, and Purchaser expressly waives the right to recover any additional damages against Seller as a result of Seller’s default hereunder; or (b) to ▇▇▇ for specific performance of Seller’s obligation to execute and deliver the documents required to convey the Property to Purchaser, it being understood and agreed that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller hereunder. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected the remedy described in clause (a) of the preceding sentence if Purchaser fails to file suit for specific performance against Seller in a court having jurisdiction in Dallas County, Texas, on or before sixty (60) days following the scheduled Closing Date. In the event that Purchaser elects the remedy described in said clause (a), Purchaser shall be required to furnish Seller with invoices, checks and other evidence of the out-of-pocket costs of Purchaser as a condition to the recovery thereof. The remedy set forth in this section 6.2 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Purchaser for Seller’s failure to close the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
6.3 Post-Closing Remedies. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 6.1 and section 6.2 above, in the event that after the termination of this Agreement or after Closing, as the case may be, a party (the “Defaulting Party”) breaches an obligation hereunder which is expressly stated herein to survive the termination of this Agreement or Closing, as the case may be, the Defaulting Party shall be liable to the other party (the “Non-Defaulting Party”) for the direct, actual damages incurred by the Non-Defaulting Party as a direct result of such breach (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.3 above). In no event shall the Non-Defaulting Party be entitled to recover from the Defaulting Party any punitive, consequential or speculative damages.
ARTICLE VII
RISK OF LOSS
7.1 Minor Damage. In the event of loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof (the “premises in question”) which is not “major” (as hereinafter defined), (a) Seller shall promptly give written notice thereof to Purchaser, and (b) this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Seller shall either, at Seller’s option: (i) perform any necessary repairs at Seller’s sole cost and expense, to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction, or (ii) assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question (and the amount of any deductible shall be credited against the Purchase Price). In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property pursuant to the foregoing sentence, Seller shall complete such repairs promptly and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction.
PURCHASE AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.2
|
7.2 Major Damage. In the event of a “major” loss or damage, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser of such loss or damage and either Seller or Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other party, in which event the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned to Purchaser. If neither Seller nor Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) business days after Seller sends Purchaser written notice of the occurrence of major loss or damage, then Seller and Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with Closing, in which event Seller shall, at Seller’s option, either (a) perform any necessary repairs, or (b) assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question (and the amount of any deductible shall be credited against the Purchase Price). In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs. Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser. For purposes of sections 7.1 and 7.2, “major” loss or damage refers to the following: (i) loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof such that the cost of repairing or restoring the premises in question to a condition substantially identical to that of the premises in question prior to the event of damage would be, in the certified opinion of a mutually acceptable architect, equal to or greater than Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000); (ii) any loss that results in a tenant of the Property validly terminating its Lease, and (iii) any loss due to a condemnation which permanently and materially impairs the current use of the Property.
7.3 Uniform Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act Not Applicable. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the provisions of section 7.1 and section 7.2 govern the rights of the parties in the event of damage to or condemnation of the Property and that the Uniform Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act (Section 5.007 of the Texas Property Code) not apply to this Agreement.
ARTICLE VIII

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its assigns and successors, that the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices — Consumer Protection Act, Subchapter E of Chapter 17 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code (the “DTPA”), is not applicable to this transaction, and Purchaser agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its assigns and successors, that all of its rights and remedies under the DTPA are WAIVED AND RELEASED, including specifically, without limitation, all rights and remedies resulting from or arising out of any and all acts or practices of Seller in connection with this transaction, whether such acts or practices occur before or after the execution of this Agreement. Accordingly, Purchaser’s rights and remedies with respect to this transaction, and with respect to all acts or practices of the other, past, present or future, in connection with this transaction, shall be governed by legal principles other than the DTPA. In furtherance thereof, Purchaser agrees as follows:
(a) Purchaser represents that it is a business consumer and that it seeks to acquire by purchase or lease the goods or services that are the subject of this Agreement for commercial or business use. Purchaser further represents that it has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that enable it to evaluate the merits and risks of the business transaction that is the subject of this Agreement. Purchaser also represents that it is not in a significantly disparate bargaining position in relation to Seller.
(b) Purchaser represents that it has been represented by legal counsel in seeking or acquiring the goods or services that are the subject of this Agreement and that the transaction contemplated by this Agreement does not involve the purchase or lease of a family residence occupied or to be occupied as the residence of Purchaser.
8.4 Effect and Survival of Disclaimers. Seller has informed Purchaser that the compensation to be paid to Seller for the Property has been decreased to take into account that the Property is being sold subject to the provisions of this Article VIII. Seller and Purchaser agree that the provisions of this Article VIII shall survive Closing.
ARTICLE IX
MISCELLANEOUS
9.1 Brokers. Seller and Purchaser represent each to the other that each has had no dealings with any broker, finder or other party concerning Purchaser’s purchase of the Property. Seller and Purchaser each hereby agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from all loss, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by the other as a result of any claim arising out of the acts of the indemnifying party (or others on its behalf) for a commission, finder’s fee or similar compensation made by any broker, finder or any party who claims to have dealt with such party. The foregoing representations and warranties contained in this section shall survive the Closing. The Texas Real Estate License Act requires written notice to Purchaser that it should have an attorney examine an abstract of title to the property being purchased or obtain a title insurance policy. Notice to that effect is, therefore, hereby given to Purchaser.
9.2 Assignability. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement without first obtaining Seller’s written approval, which approval may be given or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion. Even if Seller’s consent to an assignment is given (a) such assignment shall not become effective until the assignee executes an instrument reasonably satisfactory to Seller in form and substance whereby the assignee expressly assumes each of the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement, including specifically, without limitation, all obligations concerning the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money, and (b) such assignment shall not release or otherwise relieve Purchaser from any obligations hereunder.

The information supplied to or made available to Purchaser by Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall not be released or disclosed to any other parties unless and until this transaction has closed without the prior written consent of Seller; provided, however, that Purchaser may disclose such information to its legal counsel, accountants, consultants, lenders, potential lenders, officers, investors, potential investors, clients, partners, directors, and shareholders to the extent reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. In the event that this transaction is not closed for any reason, then (i) Purchaser shall refrain, and shall cause its legal counsel, accountants, consultants, lenders, potential lenders, officers, investors, potential investors, clients, partners, directors, shareholders and agents to refrain, from disclosing such information to any other party, (ii) Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller any statements, documents, schedules, exhibits or other written information obtained from Seller in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated herein, and (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, the covenant set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) shall survive any termination of this Agreement. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Purchaser or its agents or representatives of this section 9.3(a), Seller shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Purchaser or its agents or representatives from disclosing, in whole or in part, such confidential information. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Seller from pursuing any other available remedy at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach.
(b) Seller and Purchaser each expressly acknowledge and agree that, unless and until the Closing occurs, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the terms, conditions, and negotiations concerning the same will be held in the strictest confidence by each of them and will not be disclosed by either of them except to their respective legal counsel, accountants, consultants, lenders, potential lenders, officers, investors, potential investors, clients, partners, directors, and shareholders. Seller and Purchaser may also disclose the same to other persons to the extent reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and as may be required by applicable law.

(c) Neither Seller nor Purchaser shall issue any press release or other public announcement with respect to the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement unless (i) Purchaser has acquired the Property; (ii) such press release or public announcement does not disclose the economic terms of the sale and purchase of the Property; and (iii) such press release or public announcement has been reviewed and approved in writing by both Seller and Purchaser. The preceding sentence shall not be applicable to any filing required (in the opinion of counsel for Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be) to be made with any governmental authority. The provisions of this section 9.3 shall any survive termination of this Agreement.
9.4 Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be served on the parties at the following address:
