setting forth those title and survey matters to which Buyer objects on or
before December 13, 1999 ("Title Review Period"), Buyer shall be deemed to
have disapproved the exceptions to title shown on the Preliminary Title

Buyer shall cause the Title Company to reissue the Preliminary Title Report
to include an obligation to provide (i) a CLTA 100 Comprehensive
Endorsement (or comparable endorsement), (ii) a CLTA 123.2 Zoning

searches in the applicable recording offices and copies of any financing
statements filed against the Property in the name of the Property, Seller
and Seller's general partner (collectively, the "UCC Report").
(2) Additional Title Matters. Approval by Buyer of any
additional exceptions to title or survey matters first disclosed after the
expiration of the Title Review Period, including, without limitation, any
new matters of survey revealed by the Survey, shall be a condition
precedent to Buyer's obligation to purchase the Property. Unless Buyer
gives written notice that it approves any such additional exceptions to
title or survey matters, stating the exceptions or matters so approved,
within (5) business days after receipt of written notice thereof (provided
that the Closing Date shall be extended up to December 29, 1999 to allow
for such five (5) business day period (or portion thereof), if necessary),
Buyer shall be deemed to have disapproved said additional title or survey
matters.
(3) Title Objections. If Buyer shall disapprove any
title or survey matters pursuant to this Paragraph 4, Buyer shall give
written notice thereof ("Title Objection Notice") to Seller within the time
periods provided for in Para-graphs 4(A)(1) or 4(A)(2), as applicable.
Upon receipt by Seller of a Title Objection Notice given in a timely
manner, then Seller shall have until the sooner to occur of (1) five (5)
business days from receipt of such Title Objection Notice and (2) the
Closing Date, within which to notify Buyer as to each disapproved matter
pursuant to this Paragraph 4 either that (i) Seller elects not to cause
such disapproved matter to be removed as of the Closing Date (provided
Seller shall be obligated to remove any existing mortgages or deeds of
trust securing loans obtained by or assumed by Seller, any mechanic's liens
for work by or on behalf of Seller, and any tax or judgement liens against
Seller that are secured in whole or in part by the Property or any portion
thereof, and further provided Seller shall be obligated to bond over any
mechanic's liens for work by or on behalf of third parties that are secured
in whole or in part by the Property or any portion thereof), or (ii) Seller
intends to either (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
disapproved matter to be removed on the Closing Date, or (b) obtain a title
endorsement (if available and if acceptable to Buyer in Buyer's sole and
absolute discretion) insuring over such disapproved matter. Seller shall
have no liability except as expressly set forth herein, if for any reason,
after electing under (ii) above, such additional disapproved matters are
not removed or insured over as of the Closing Date. Failure to deliver any
written notification by Seller of its election within such period shall be
deemed to be an election not to cause any such additional disapproved
matters to be removed. If Seller elects not to cause any or all such
additional disapproved matters to be removed or insured over as aforesaid,
Buyer shall have until the sooner to occur of (1) two (2) business days
from receipt of written notice thereof (or from the date of Seller's deemed
election as aforesaid) and (2) the Closing Date, within which to notify
Seller in writing either that (x) Buyer revokes its disapproval and will
proceed with the purchase of the Property without any reduction in the
Purchase Price and will take subject to such matters, or (y)Buyer
terminates this Agreement (and thereupon the Deposit shall be delivered to
Buyer and, except for the Surviving Obligations (as hereinafter defined),
this Agreement shall thereupon terminate). Failure to deliver any written
notification by Buyer of its election within such period shall be deemed to
be an election to terminate this Agreement as set forth above.

Preliminary Title Report which are approved by Buyer in accordance with
this Paragraph 4(A) (except for real estate taxes and assessments that are
to be prorated at the "Closing" (as hereinafter defined)), are herein

Property, including all leases, service contracts, and all physical,
environmental and compliance matters and conditions respecting the Property
(other than title and survey matters which shall be governed by the
provisions of Paragraph 4(A) above). During the Due Diligence Period,
Buyer and its employees, agents, contractors and consultants may conduct
such inspections and investigations of the Property as Buyer deems
necessary or desirable in connection with its acquisition of the Property,
in such scope and detail as may be required by Buyer in its sole and
absolute discretion to satisfy itself with all financial, legal and other
aspects of the Property, subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 4(B).
During the Due Diligence Period, Buyer and its employees, agents,
contractors and consultants shall have the right to enter the Property from
time to time and, at Buyer's sole cost, to conduct studies, surveys, tests
and inspections thereto, including, but not limited to, tests for Hazardous

permitted to perform any intrusive testing, including, without limitation,
a Phase II environmental assessment or boring, without (i) submitting to
Seller the scope and inspections for such testing; and (ii) obtaining the
prior written consent of Seller. Any entry by Buyer upon the Property
shall be scheduled with, coordinated by and, at Seller's option, attended
by, Seller and shall comply with all conditions of the Leases. In the
course of such investigations, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable
efforts not to interfere with or disrupt the business of the tenants. In
the course of its investigations Buyer may make inquiries to third parties
including, without limitation, contractors, property managers, parties to
contracts, and municipal, local and other government officials and
representatives, and Seller consents to such inquiries. During the Due
Diligence Period, the Buyer may interview the tenants of the Property,
provided that all such interviews are scheduled with, coordinated by and,
at Seller's option, attended by, Seller, shall comply with all conditions
of the Leases and shall in any event use commercially reasonable efforts
not to interfere with or disrupt the business of the tenants. In no event

conditioned. Seller and the Seller's property manager shall make
themselves available to attend such interviews, if they elect to attend,
upon twenty-four (24) hours notice from Buyer. Such interviews shall be
during the normal or customary business hours of the tenant or other
parties to be interviewed, and Seller shall provide Buyer twenty-four (24)
hours notice of the time of each interview if Seller schedules such
interview. Buyer agrees to protect and be responsible for any and all
claims, losses, damages, actual costs and expenses (including, without
limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) made, brought,
sought or incurred by any of Seller or any of its respective partners,
trustees, beneficiaries, shareholders, members, managers, employees,
officers, directors, advisors and other agents (the "Protected Parties") by
reasons directly arising out of, caused (in whole or in part) by or in
connection with any activities of Buyer (including activities of any of
Buyer's employees, consultants, contractors or other agents) relating to
the Property, including, without limitation, mechanics' liens, damage to
the Property, injury to persons or property resulting from such activities
in connection therewith. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital Management Corporation ("HCMC")
agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller and the Protected Parties
harmless from any and all such claims, losses, damages, and actual costs
and damages. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence of this
Paragraph 4(B) shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this
Agreement, if this Agreement shall be terminated. Buyer shall not be
responsible for the indemnification obligations of HCMC and Seller shall
look solely to HCMC with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the obligations of Buyer and HCMC under this
Paragraph 4(B) shall not apply to the discovery of a condition that existed
prior to the commencement of Buyer's or HCMC's activities on the Property.
Buyer shall promptly restore the Property to the condition in which it
existed prior to the commencement of any such activities which disturb or
alter the Property. HCMC shall procure and continue in force from and
after the date Buyer first enters the Real Property, and continuing

with limits of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per
occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per event. Seller shall be
included as Additional Insureds under such Comprehensive General Liability
or Commercial General Liability Coverage. Seller shall reasonably
cooperate with Buyer's inspections and investigations of the Property.
Seller agrees to respond within twenty-four (24) hours during normal
business hours to any inquiry which Buyer may make from time to time with
respect to the information contained in such materials, and shall instruct
its property manager and other agents and employees to answer Buyer's
inquiries from time to time relating to the condition and operation of the
Property, and shall join in any written requests, letters and documents
prepared by Buyer for submission to the appropriate city, county or quasi-
governmental unit making formal requests and/or application for copies of
utility permits, building permits, or other permits necessary for the
operation of the Property by Buyer, provided, however, Buyer shall not
request an inspection of the Property by any governmental entity. To
facilitate Buyer's evaluation, Seller shall give Buyer and its counsel,
accountants, and representatives full access, at all reasonable times, to
all of its records (to the extent in the possession of Seller or Seller's
agents and excluding ownership and partnership records) and operating books
with respect to ownership, construction and operation of the Property, and
the right to copy the same, and shall furnish Buyer with the due diligence
items indicated in the attached Exhibit "G" to the extent the same is in
the possession or control of Seller or Seller's agents. In the event of
termination hereunder, Buyer shall return all documents and other materials
furnished by Seller hereunder, without expunging copies. Buyer shall keep
all information or data received or discovered in connection with any of
the inspections, reviews or examinations strictly confidential except as

subpoena or court order) and shall obtain similar confidentiality
agreements from all third parties which it employs with respect to the
Property and with respect to any confidentiality agreements entered into
after the Effective Date, shall indemnify the Protected Parties for all
damages for breaches thereof. In particular, Seller acknowledges that
Buyer is subject to the Florida Public Records Act, Chapter 119 Florida

otherwise pursue any offers for the sale or purchase of the Property prior
to: (i)the end of the Due Diligence Period; and, (ii) if Buyer delivers the
Approval Notice (as hereinafter defined) to Seller prior to the expiration
of the Due Diligence Period and if this Agreement is not previously
terminated, the Closing Date. If, on or before the expiration of the Due
Diligence Period, Buyer shall determine that it intends to proceed with the
acquisition of the Property and Buyer obtains approval from its Investment
Committee, then Buyer shall promptly notify Seller and Escrow Holder of
such determination in writing (such notice being herein called the
"Approval Notice") and thereafter, Buyer shall have no further right to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Paragraph 4(B). If, however, on
or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall determine
in its sole and absolute discretion that it no longer intends to acquire
the Property, then Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of such determination
in writing (such notice being herein called the "Termination Notice"),
whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and except for the
Surviving Obligations, this Agreement, shall terminate. In the event that,
on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall fail
to have delivered the Approval Notice to Seller, Buyer shall be deemed to
have elected not to proceed with the acquisition of the Property and
terminate this Agreement and the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer as set
forth above.
C. Tenant Estoppel Certificates. Receipt of estoppel

(30) days prior to the Closing Date from a sufficient number of the tenants

covered by leases at the Property in effect as of the date hereof, and
which shall include estoppel certificates from the following tenants:
Jacuzzi, Inc., Covance Clinical & Periapproval Services, Air Liquide, Maxis
and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ (collectively, the "Required Tenants") and receipt of an
estoppel certificate from Seller in substantially the form attached as
Exhibit "C-3" attached hereto (a "Seller Estoppel Certificate") with
respect to such leases for which a Tenant Estoppel Certificate has not been
issued (but not for the Required Tenants, who must deliver their own Tenant
Estoppel Certificates), is a condition precedent to Buyer's obligation to
purchase the Property hereunder. The form of estoppel certificate to be
received from each tenant shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit "C-
1" attached hereto and made a part hereof or in the form previously
delivered by the applicable tenant to Seller as set forth in Exhibit "C-2",
provided, however, if the applicable tenant lease prescribes the required
form of estoppel certificate, then such required form shall be deemed
acceptable. Buyer must object to Seller in writing within two (2) business
days after Buyer's receipt of any estoppel certificate if Buyer claims that
the form of any non-conforming estoppel certificate or any tenant or
landlord lease defaults or inconsistencies to the list of leases described
in any applicable estoppel certificate cause such certificate to be
unacceptable for the purposes of this Paragraph 4(C) (and if such objection
is not made within such time period, the non-conforming estoppel
certificate shall be deemed disapproved for purposes of satisfaction of the
foregoing condition precedent). Seller's sole obligation hereunder shall be
to utilize reasonable efforts to obtain such Tenant Estoppel Certificates
(such reasonable efforts obligation not including any obligation to
institute legal proceedings or to expend any monies therefor, other than
for minor administrative charges, whether imposed by tenants or incurred by
Seller). If Tenant Estoppel Certificates are obtained after the Closing
Date with respect to tenants for which Seller shall have delivered a Seller
Estoppel Certificate, such Tenant Estoppel Certificates shall replace
Seller's Estoppel Certificates to the extent they are not inconsistent, and
Seller shall not have any obligations or liabilities under Seller's
Estoppel Certificates to the extent that they are so replaced. Buyer shall
have the option to waive the condition precedent set forth herein by notice
to Seller (whereupon such condition will be deemed satisfied). In the
event that on or before the Closing Date such condition is not satisfied
(or waived as aforesaid), the obligations of Seller to sell, and Buyer to
purchase, this Agreement shall terminate whereupon the Deposit shall be
returned to Buyer and except for the Surviving Obligations, this Agreement,
shall terminate.

D. Prorations.
(1) Items to be Prorated. The following shall be
prorated between Seller and Buyer as of midnight of the date prior to the
Closing Date ("Proration Date"):
(a) All real and personal property taxes and
assessments on the Property shall be prorated on the basis that Seller is
responsible for all previous tax years and for the current tax year through
and including the Proration Date. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
to the extent that Seller has responsibility to the Contra Costa County
Assessor for such taxes under applicable law and such assessments can not
passed through to the tenants pursuant to their respective leases of the
Property, "escaped assessments" assessed or otherwise imposed upon the
Property for all such previous tax years and for the current tax year
through and including the Proration Date shall be the responsibility of
Seller and shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Paragraph 5(D)(2)
(the "Escaped Assessment Liability"). Such proration shall be based on an
estimate of taxes and assessments using the latest available tax bills for
the Property; when the actual amount of taxes and assessments are
determinable, then such taxes and assessments shall be reprorated and
adjusted between the parties to reflect the actual amount of such taxes and
assessments. Payment of any increase in real property taxes arising from
the sale of the Property contemplated by this Agreement or from any
improvements made or leases entered into on or after the Closing Date shall
be the responsibility of Buyer. If any assessments on the Property are
payable in installments, then the installment for the current period shall
be prorated (with Buyer assuming the obligation to pay any installments due
after the Closing Date). Any and all claims or rights to appeal the amount
of any real property taxes or other taxes changed in connection with the
Property shall belong to Buyer following Closing.
(b) At Closing, Seller shall provide a credit
against the Purchase Price to Buyer in an amount equal to the outstanding
balance of the Subleasing Cost Notes pursuant to the terms of the lease
with Air Liquide America Corporation. In addition, at Closing, Seller
shall provide a credit against the Purchase Price to Buyer in an amount
equal to all prepaid rents attributable to periods after the Proration Date
and all security deposits in the amounts provided in the Tenant Estoppel
Certificates (provided that if a Tenant Estoppel Certificate is not
available at Closing, the amount shown in the most current accounts
receivable report as of the Proration Date will be credited). All rentals
and other tenant charges and reimbursements received in respect to the
month in which the Proration Date occurs (the "Current Month") and
Additional Rents (as defined below) for the Current Month which have been
received as of the Proration Date shall be prorated on a per diem basis
based upon the number of days in the Current Month on or prior to the
Proration Date (which shall be allocated to Seller) and the number of days
in the Current Month after the Proration Date (which shall be allocated to
Buyer). Rents and other tenant charges and Additional Rents which have not
been received as of the Proration Date shall not be prorated on the Closing
Date. All rentals and other tenant charges and Additional Rents received
by Buyer from a tenant after the Closing Date shall be applied as follows:
(i) first, to the payment of the actual reasonable third party costs of
collecting such amount; (ii) second, on account of any amounts then
currently due Buyer from such tenant for any periods subsequent to the
Proration Date; and (iii) third, on account of any amount then currently
due Seller from such tenant for any periods on or prior to the Proration
Date. Buyer shall (i) ▇▇▇▇ tenants for all rentals and other tenant
charges and Additional Rents, (ii) include all delinquent amounts in its
normal ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, (iii) pursue using reasonable and customary measures the
collection of all amounts, and (iv) reasonably cooperate with Seller in
collecting any amounts due Seller (but shall not be required to litigate or
declare a default in any Lease). Delinquent payments, if and when
collected by Buyer, shall be paid to Seller to the extent of Seller's
interest therein, and if not collected within sixty (60) days after
Closing, Seller shall have the right to collect same and to pursue an
action against any tenant owing delinquent rents and any other amounts to
Seller attributable to the period prior to the Closing Date to collect such
amounts, together with damages and the like as a result thereof (but in no
event shall Seller have any right to institute eviction proceedings with
respect thereto). After application as set forth above, Buyer shall remit
to Seller within fifteen (15) business days after the end of the calendar
month of Buyer's receipt of that portion of rentals and other tenant
charges and Additional Rents received after the Closing Date attributable
to periods prior to the Closing Date. With respect to delinquent rents and
any other amounts or other rights of any kind respecting tenants who are no
longer tenants of the Property as of the Closing Date, Seller shall retain
all rights relating thereto and shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer
from any claims for reproration of Additional Rents or other charges,
payments or security deposits pursuant to the terms of such terminated
leases.
(c) Tenants of the Property may be obligated to
pay, as additional rent, certain percentage rent, escalations in base rent,
parking charges and overtime HVAC charges and pass-throughs of operating
and similar expenses and taxes pursuant to the terms of the Leases
(collectively, "Additional Rents"). Any percentage rents shall be prorated
on a per diem basis at such time as the required annual sales reports and
final percentage rent payments are received from the tenants. Such
prorations shall be based on the actual sales during each party's period of
ownership of the Property and any "break-point" used in the calculation of
such percentage rents shall be ratably allocated based on the Proration
Date. Any operating cost pass-throughs or other sums paid by tenants to
landlord as provided for in the Leases (including, without limitation, real
estate tax reimbursements paid by tenants under the Leases) shall be
apportioned as follows: (i) all amounts paid to Seller prior to the
Proration Date for the period prior to the Closing Date shall be retained
by Seller; and (ii) any amounts payable by tenants but not yet collected
through the Proration Date, which reimburse landlord for charges accruing
prior to the Closing Date, shall be paid by Buyer to Seller within fifteen
(15) business days after the end of each calendar month; and (iii) all
amounts payable by tenants to reimburse for charges accruing for the period
beginning on, and continuing after, the Closing Date shall be retained by
Buyer. Except for checks for December rent which shall be retained by
Seller based on Seller's period of ownership of the Property during the
month of December, and of which any remainder shall be paid to Buyer within
fifteen (15) business days of Seller's receipt of such check, Seller agrees
that any checks received by Seller from tenants after the Closing shall,
within fifteen (15) business days be endorsed and delivered to Buyer. As
to any Additional Rents that are based on estimates and that are subject to
adjustment or reconciliation pursuant to the Leases after the Closing Date,
Seller and Buyer shall prorate such Additional Rents at the time that such
estimates are actually adjusted or reconciled pursuant to the terms of such
Leases. Buyer shall deliver bills to each tenant for Additional Rents by
no later than March 15, 2000 and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to pursue collection of such bills. Any amounts that may be due
Seller as a result of such re-prorations shall be paid by Buyer to Seller
within fifteen (15) business days after Buyer collects such amounts from
the tenants, and any amounts that may be due the tenants from Seller as a
result of such re-prorations shall be paid by Seller to Buyer within
fifteen (15) business days after written request therefor is delivered to
Seller by Buyer (together with reasonable evidence of the amount due the
tenants).
(d) Payments under any Service Agreements
assigned to and accepted by Buyer, together with other normal and customary
operating expenses of the Property, shall be prorated on a per diem basis
(subject to adjustment as set forth in Paragraph 5(D)(2)). Seller shall
pay any termination fees, cancellation fees or similar charges arising from
the termination of any Service Agreements and Seller agrees to indemnify
and hold Buyer and Buyer harmless with respect thereto.
(e) Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall
request the providers of gas, water, electricity, heat, fuel, sewer and
other utilities relating to the Property to terminate service to the
Property under Seller's name and to render a final billing as of the
Closing Date, and Buyer shall request all such utility providers to
establish service to the Property in the name of Buyer as of the Closing
Date. If, for any reason, the parties are unable to obtain a final reading
of any utility as of the Closing Date, Seller's ▇▇▇▇ for such utility,
shall be estimated based upon the prior month's ▇▇▇▇ and prorated (subject
to adjustment as set forth in Paragraph 5(D)(2)) on a per diem basis on the
assumption that utility charges were uniformly incurred during the billing
period in which the Closing Date occurs. Except to the extent such items
are the responsibility of tenants, prepaid water, sewer, and other utility
charges shall be credited to Seller, and accrued water, sewer, and other
utility charges shall be credited to Buyer.
(f) Except with respect to any leases for which
Seller has received Buyer's approval pursuant to Paragraph 7(D)(7) of this
Agreement and except for any unexercised option periods contained in any
lease, any and all commissions of leasing and rental agents for any Lease
entered into before the date of Closing shall be paid by Seller prior to
the Closing Date and Seller agree to indemnify and hold Buyer and Buyer
harmless with respect thereto.
(2) Calculation. The prorations and payments shall be
made on the basis of a written statement submitted to Buyer and Seller by
Escrow Holder prior to the Close of Escrow and approved by Buyer and
Seller. In the event any prorations or apportionments made under this
Paragraph 5(D) shall prove to be incorrect for any reason, then any party
shall be entitled to an adjustment to correct the same provided written
notice of such inaccuracy and request for correction is given within six
(6) months after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
party shall be entitled to an adjustment with respect to any "escaped
assessments" assessed or imposed after Closing as referenced in Paragraph
5(D)(1)(a) regardless of when written notice of the request for correction
is given. Any item which cannot be finally prorated because of the
unavailability of information shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of
the best data then available and reprorated when the information is
available, but not later than June 30, 2000. The provisions of Paragraph
5(D) shall survive Closing.
6. Condemnation or Destruction of Property.
A. Fire or Other Casualty.
(1) Insured Casualty. If (i) the Property or any part
thereof is damaged by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing Date,
(ii) such casualty is insured pursuant to Seller's existing insurance
coverage, and (iii) repair of such casualty would cost in excess of Two
Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (as determined by an insurance
adjuster selected by the insurance carriers and acceptable to Seller and
Buyer) or such casualty would entitle any Tenant to terminate its Lease,
then Seller shall give Buyer written notice of such damage, and Buyer may
terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller given within ten (10)
business days following receipt of Seller's notice of such casualty,
provided that the Closing Date shall be extended, if necessary, to provide
such full ten (10) business day period. In the event of such termination,
the Deposit shall be delivered to Buyer, and this Agreement shall be of no
further force and effect and, except for Paragraph 4(B) of this Agreement
("Surviving Obligations"), neither party shall thereafter have any further
obligation under this Agreement. If Buyer does not elect to terminate this
Agreement or the cost of repair is determined by said adjuster to be less
than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), then the Closing shall
take place as herein provided with no reduction in the Purchase Price, and
Seller shall assign and transfer to Buyer on the Closing Date, all of
Seller's right, title and interest to the balance of insurance proceeds
paid or payable to Seller on account of such fire or casualty and Buyer
shall be entitled to a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of
any deductible paid or payable by Seller with respect to such claim.
(2) Uninsured Casualty. If the Property or any part
thereof is damaged by fire or other casualty which is uninsured and if the
repair of such casualty would cost less than Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
($200,000) (as determined by Buyer in Buyer's reasonable discretion), then
Buyer may either (i) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller
given within ten (10) business days following receipt of Seller's notice of
such casualty, provided that the Closing Date shall be extended, if
necessary, to provide such full ten (10) business day period (ii) elect to
have the Closing take place as herein provided with Buyer to receive a
credit against the Purchase Price in the estimated amount of the repair.
If the Property or any part thereof is damaged by fire or other casualty
which is uninsured and if the repair of such casualty would cost in excess
of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) (as determined Buyer in Buyer's
reasonable discretion), then either Buyer or Seller may terminate this
Agreement by written notice to the other party given within ten (10)
business days following receipt of Seller's notice of such casualty,
provided that the Closing Date shall be extended, if necessary, to provide
such full ten (10) business day period. In the event of such a termination
under this Paragraph 6(A)(2), the Deposit shall be delivered to Buyer, and
this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect and, except for the
Surviving Obligations, neither party shall thereafter have any further
obligation under this Agreement.
B. Condemnation. If, prior to Closing, any portion of the
Property is taken or threatened to be taken in eminent domain proceedings
as evidenced by a written notice from a condemning authority, Seller shall
give Buyer written notice of such event and Buyer may terminate this
Agreement by notice to Seller given within ten (10) business days after
receipt of Seller's notice of such taking or threatened taking, provided
that the Closing Date shall be extended, if necessary, to provide such full
ten (10) business day period, and, in the event of such termination, the
Deposit shall be delivered to Buyer, and this Agreement shall be of no
further force and effect and, except for the Surviving Obligations, neither
party shall thereafter have any further obligation under this Agreement.
If Buyer does not so elect to terminate, then the Closing shall take place
as herein provided without a reduction in the Purchase Price, and Seller
shall deliver or assign to Buyer on the Closing Date, all of Seller's
right, title and interest in and to all condemnation awards paid or payable
to Seller.

authorized and qualified to do all things required of it under this
Agreement. Buyer has the capacity and authority to enter into this
Agreement and consummate the transactions herein provided. None of the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and documents referenced herein,
the incurrence of the obligations set forth herein, the consummation of the
transactions herein contemplated or referenced herein conflicts with or
results in the material breach of any terms, conditions or provisions of or
constitute a default under, any bond, note, or other evidence of
indebtedness or any contract, lease or other agreements or instruments to
which Buyer is a party or by which it is otherwise bound
C. Survival. Any cause of action of a party for a breach of
the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall
survive until December 25, 2000 (the "Survival Period"), at which time such
representations and warranties (and any cause of action resulting from a
breach thereof not then in litigation) shall terminate. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if Buyer shall have actual knowledge as of the Closing Date that
any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained herein are
false or inaccurate or that Seller is in breach or default of any of its
obligations under this Agreement, and Buyer nonetheless closes the
transactions hereunder and acquires the Property, then Seller shall have no
liability or obligation respecting such false or inaccurate representations
or warranties or other breach or default (and any cause of action resulting
therefrom shall terminate upon such closing hereunder). The actual
knowledge of Buyer shall be the actual conscious knowledge of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, without duty of investigation or
inquiry.
D. Interim Covenants of Seller. Until the Closing Date or
the sooner termination of this Agreement:
(1) Seller shall maintain the Property in the same
manner as prior hereto pursuant to its normal course of business (such
maintenance obligations not including extraordinary capital expenditures or
expenditures not incurred in such normal course of business), subject to
reasonable wear and tear and further subject to destruction by casualty or
other events beyond the control of Seller.
(2) Seller shall not enter into any additional service
contracts or other similar agreements without the prior written consent of
Buyer.
(3) Seller shall not transfer any of the Property or
create on the Property any easements, liens, mortgages, encumbrances, or
other interests which will survive Closing or permit any changes to the
zoning classification of the Property.
(4) Seller shall maintain the existing insurance
coverages (or substantially equivalent coverage) applicable to the
Property.
(5) Seller shall comply in all material respects with
the terms of the Leases and shall not consent to any default or breach
under any Lease or Service Agreement.
(6) Seller shall have the right to continue to offer
the Property for lease in the same manner as prior hereto pursuant to its
normal course of business and shall keep Buyer informed as to the status of
leasing prior to the Closing Date. Seller will not, without the prior
written consent of Buyer, (i) amend any Leases (ii) cancel any of such
Leases, or (iii) execute any new leases without the prior written consent
of Buyer. Seller shall submit to Buyer all tenant executed proposals
describing the economic terms of any proposed lease, cancellation or
amendment along with any financial information on the tenant in Seller's
possession (the "Proposal"). Buyer shall provide its written approval or
disapproval of such Proposal within five (5) business days after receipt of
the Proposal. If Buyer fails to provide written notice of its approval or
disapproval within such five (5) business day period, Buyer shall be deemed
to have disapproved such Proposal. In the event Buyer specifically
disapproves any Proposal, Buyer's notice of disapproval shall include the
reasons for such disapproval. In the event Buyer approves any such
Proposal, Buyer, upon Closing, shall be solely responsible for all tenant
allowances, landlord costs, legal costs, rental concessions and lease
commissions payable with respect to such Proposal to the extent disclosed
in such Proposal. Seller shall have the right to execute the lease
document evidencing a Proposal approved by Buyer provided the Seller's
standard lease form is utilized without material modifications. In no
event shall Seller have any obligation to enter into any new lease or
modify any existing lease unless Buyer shall agree to pay or reimburse
Seller on the Closing Date for all tenant improvement costs, landlord
costs, legal costs, rental concessions and leasing commissions incurred by
Seller under or in connection therewith.
8. Default by Buyer; Remedies of Seller. IF THE SALE
OF THE PROPERTY CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER IS NOT CONSUMMATED BECAUSE OF A
DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SOLELY ON THE PART OF BUYER, WHERE SUCH
DEFAULT IS NOT (I) EXPRESSLY WAIVED BY SELLER, (II) CURED WITHIN TEN (10)
DAYS AFTER NOTICE THEREOF (OTHER THAN BUYER'S FAILURE TO TENDER THE
PURCHASE PRICE AND CLOSE ON THE CLOSING DATE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, FOR WHICH NO NOTICE IS REQUIRED OR,
IF SUCH DEFAULT IS NOT REASONABLY CURABLE WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS, THEN IF
BUYER FAILS TO COMMENCE CURATIVE ACTION WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS AND DILIGENTLY
PURSUE THE SAME TO COMPLETION) OR (III) THE RESULT OF A FAILURE OF A
CONDITION TO BUYER'S OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER THEN, PROVIDED SELLER IS NOT
CURRENTLY IN DEFAULT HEREUNDER, THE DEPOSIT, TOGETHER WITH ANY AND ALL
INTEREST EARNED THEREON SHALL BE PAID TO AND RETAINED BY SELLER AS
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED THAT SELLER'S ACTUAL DAMAGES
IN THE EVENT OF SUCH DEFAULT BY BUYER, WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR
IMPRACTICABLE TO DETERMINE. THEREFORE, BY PLACING THEIR INITIALS BELOW,
THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE DEPOSIT HAS BEEN AGREED UPON
AFTER NEGOTIATION, AS THE PARTIES' REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLER'S DAMAGES
AND AS SELLER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST BUYER, AT LAW OR IN
EQUITY, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH A DEFAULT BY BUYER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
-------------------- --------------------
Seller's Initials Buyer's Initials
Default by Seller; Remedies of Buyer. If the sale of the Property
contemplated hereunder is not consummated because of a default under this
Agreement solely on the part of Seller, where such default is not (i)
expressly waived by Buyer, (ii) cured within ten (10) days after notice
thereof or, if such default is not reasonably curable within ten (10) days,
then if Seller fails to commence curative action within ten (10) days and
diligently pursue the same to completion, then, provided Buyer is not in
currently in default hereunder, Buyer may (i) terminate this Agreement, in
which event the Deposit, together with any and all interest earned thereon
shall be released by the Title Company and delivered to Buyer, and neither
Buyer nor Seller shall have any further obligations or liabilities
hereunder, except pursuant to the Surviving Obligations and except that
Buyer shall be entitled to receive its out-of-pocket expenses up to Two
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) incurred in conducting its due
diligence activities with respect to the Property, or (ii) pursue the right
of specific performance, but no other action for damages or otherwise shall
be permitted.
9. Miscellaneous.
A. Brokers.
(1) Except as provided in Paragraph 9(A)(2) below,
Seller represents and warrants to Buyer, and Buyer represents and warrants
to Seller, that no broker or finder has been engaged by it, respectively,
in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
or to its knowledge is in any way connected with any of such transactions.
In the event of a claim for broker's or finder's fee or commissions in
connection herewith, then Seller shall protect Buyer from the same if it
shall be based upon any statement or agreement alleged to have been made by
Seller, and Buyer shall protect Seller from the same if it shall be based
upon any statement or agreement alleged to have been made by Buyer. The
obligations under this Paragraph 9(A)(1) shall survive the Closing or the
earlier termination of this Agreement.
(2) If and only if the sale contemplated herein closes,
Seller agrees to pay a brokerage commission to HIGroup, formerly known as
Hampton's International ("Broker"), pursuant to a separate written
agreement with Broker. In the event of a claim for broker's or finder's fee
or commissions from Broker or any party claiming by, through, or under
Broker, then Seller shall protect Buyer from the same.
B. Limitation of Liability.
(1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein (except with regard to "escaped taxes"; which obligation shall not
be so limited), if the Closing shall have occurred, the aggregate liability
of Seller arising out of, pursuant to or in connection with the
representations, warranties, indemnifications, covenants or other
obligations (whether express or implied) of Seller under this Agreement (or
any document executed or delivered in connection herewith) shall not exceed
$2,000,000, and Seller hereby covenants and agrees that not less that
$2,000,000 of cash proceeds from the Purchase Price shall be retained by
the Seller or Carlyle Real Estate Limited Partnership-XV ("Carlyle") and
not distributed to its partners prior to the expiration of the Survival
Period. The provisions of this Paragraph 9(B)(1) shall survive Closing.
(2) Except as specifically set forth hereafter, or to
the extent of any distribution in violation of Paragraph 9(B)(1), no
constituent partner in or agent of Seller, nor any partner, member,
trustee, director, officer, employee, beneficiary, shareholder,
participant, representative, advisor or agent of any entity that is or
becomes a constituent partner in Seller (collectively, "Indirect Entities")
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 Buyer 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 Buyer, on
behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby waives any and all
such personal liability; provided, however, the foregoing shall not limit
obligations which Carlyle (but not the Indirect Entities of Carlyle) may
have for Seller's liabilities hereunder as a general partner of Seller
(such liabilities in all events being subject to other limitations
contained in this Agreement). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, neither the negative capital account of any
constituent partner in Seller (or in any other constituent partner of
Seller), nor any obligation of any constituent partner in Seller (or in any
other constituent partner of Seller) to restore a negative capital account
or to contribute capital to Seller (or to any other constituent partner of
Seller), shall at any time be deemed to be the property or an asset of
Seller or any such other constituent partner (and neither Buyer nor any of
its successors or assigns shall have any right to collect, enforce or
proceed against or with respect to any such negative capital account of
partner's obligation to restore or contribute).
C. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire
agreement between the parties respecting the matters herein set forth and
supersedes all prior agreements between the parties hereto respecting such
matters. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by written
agreement signed by both parties.
D. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this
Agreement.
E. Interpretation. Paragraph headings shall not be used in
construing this Agreement. Each party acknowledges that such party and its
counsel, after negotiation and consultation, have reviewed and revised this
Agreement. As such, the terms of this Agreement shall be fairly construed
and the usual rule of construction, to the effect that any ambiguities
herein should be resolved against the drafting party, shall not be employed
in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments, modifications or
exhibits hereto or thereto.
F. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
G. Successors and Assigns. Buyer may assign this Agreement
and its rights under this Agreement to a corporation, limited liability
company or such other entity which is wholly owned by The State Board of
Administration of Florida, so long as such assignment is effective only
upon Closing and assignee assumes responsibility for performance of Buyer's
obligations under this Agreement. In such event, Buyer shall be released
from all further liability hereunder. Except as allowed by the preceding
sentence, neither Buyer nor Seller may assign this Agreement or its rights
under this Agreement or delegate responsibility for performance of its
obligations under this Agreement absent the prior written consent of the
other party. Except as the consenting party may expressly approve in
writing, no approved assignment shall release the assigning party from its
obligations and duties hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement
shall apply to, inure to the benefit of and be binding upon and enforceable
against the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. No
consent given by Seller to any transfer or assignment of Buyer's rights or
obligations hereunder shall be construed as a consent to any other transfer
or assignment of Buyer's rights or obligations hereunder. No transfer or
assignment in violation of the provisions hereof shall be valid or
enforceable. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and the terms and
provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
successors and assigns of the parties.
H. Notices. Any notice which a party is required or may
desire to give the other shall be in writing and shall be sent by personal
delivery or by Federal Express or similar generally recognized overnight
