in its sole and absolute discretion
and containing estoppel language confirming
the Debt Documents in effect, the
outstanding balance, the absence of
defaults, the amounts held in escrow and
such other matters as CSCP may reasonably
request (collectively, the "Assumption
Documents"); provided, however, that it is
expressly understood and agreed by
CSCP that no Seller shall have any
obligation to permit at the Closing the

concerned holder of such loan (an "Existing
Lender") of the concerned Seller and
any guarantors of such loan of all
obligations and liabilities with respect to
such loan arising from acts and/or
omissions occurring from and after the
assumption of such loan. Sellers shall keep
CSCP informed as to the status of
obtaining consent for the Debt Assumption
including, without limitation,
promptly providing CSCP with copies of all
material correspondence sent or
received in connection therewith. CSCP
shall cooperate with Sellers in
connection with the Debt Assumption and

obligation to close set forth in this
Section 1 have not been satisfied prior to
the Scheduled Stabilized Closing Date
(exercisable by delivery of written notice

satisfied prior to (x) with respect to the
Stabilized Property, the Scheduled
Stabilized Closing Date (as the same may
have been extended pursuant to this
Section 1), CSCP shall have the right, at
its option, to (i) remove the
concerned Premises from the Premises being
conveyed pursuant to this Agreement
and receive a corresponding reduction in
the Consideration (unless CSCP shall

including, without limitation, pursuant to
Article XII hereof, in which case
CSCP shall have the right to terminate this

connection with the Stabilized Premises

Scheduled Stabilized Closing Date for up to
an additional forty-five (45) days,
or (y) with respect to the Development
Property, the Scheduled Development

CSCP shall have the right, at its option,
to (i) remove the concerned Premises
from the Premises being conveyed pursuant
to this Agreement and receive a
corresponding reduction in the
Consideration, or (ii) pay the portion of the

shall elect to further extend the Scheduled
Stabilized Closing Date for up to an
additional forty-five (45) days pursuant to
the terms of this Section and
following such additional period, the
conditions precedent to CSCP's obligation
to close set forth in this Section 1 have
not been satisfied, CSCP shall have
the right, at its option, to (i) remove the
concerned Premises from the Premises
being conveyed pursuant to this Agreement
and receive a corresponding reduction
in the Consideration (unless CSCP shall

Broad Company, LLC consisting of 0.675
acres and shown as Lot "A" on Exhibit RR
attached hereto and made a part hereof

It shall be a condition precedent to CSCP's
obligations to close that the
Existing Lender holding a loan secured by a
mortgage covering the Conveyed
Buffalo Broad Property and the Released
Buffalo Broad Property issue a written
release (the "Buffalo Broad Release") in
recordable form satisfactory to the
12
<PAGE>
Title Company and otherwise satisfactory to
CSCP releasing the Released Buffalo
Broad Property from the lien of said
mortgage and removing the Released Buffalo
Broad Property (and any references thereto)
from the other loan documents
evidencing, securing and/or relating to
said loan (and Seller shall use best
efforts to obtain the Buffalo Broad
Release). In the event that the conditions
precedent to CSCP's obligation to close set
forth in this Section 2 have not
been satisfied prior to the Scheduled
Stabilized Closing Date (as the same may
have been extended pursuant to this Article
V), CSCP shall have the right, at
its option, to remove the Conveyed Buffalo
Broad Property from the Premises
being conveyed pursuant to this Agreement
and receive a corresponding reduction
in the Consideration (unless CSCP shall
elect that more than five (5) Stabilized

and convey the Property and to execute the
documents referred to herein to be
executed by such Seller. Prior to the

actions required for the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. Except for the consent of the
applicable Existing Lender, no
approvals or consents by third parties or
Governmental Authorities are required
in order for Sellers to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby. The
execution and delivery of this Agreement
and the performance by each Seller of
its obligations hereunder will not conflict
in any material respect with, or
result in a breach in any material respect
of, any of the terms, conditions and
provisions of any organizational documents
or other agreement binding upon such
Seller.
(b) Neither any Seller nor, to the knowledge of any Seller, any
of
its shareholders, members or partners, as
the case may be, has (i) made a
general assignment for the benefit of its
or their creditors, (ii) admitted in
writing its inability to pay its debts as
they mature, (iii) had an attachment,
execution or other judicial seizure of any
property interest which remains in
effect or (iv) become generally unable to
meet its financial obligations as they
accrue. There is not pending any case,
proceeding or other action seeking
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment,
liquidation, dissolution or
recomposition of any Seller or, to the
knowledge of any Seller, any of its
shareholders, members or partners, as the
case may be, or the debts of such
parties under any law relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or

a receiver, trustee, custodian or
other similar official for it or any of its
shareholders, members or partners or
all or any substantial part of its or their
property.

such highway or road to the Premises.
(k) There are no union or employment contracts or agreements
(written or oral) affecting the Premises
and there are no employees of any
Seller, at the Premises or otherwise, who,
by reason of any Law, or by reason of
any union or other employment contract,
written or otherwise, or any other

the Premises by CSCP. CSCP will not be

Premises, whether under the WARN Act or
otherwise, by virtue of CSCP's acquisition
of the Property, and by the execution
of this Agreement, CSCP is neither
expressly nor implicitly assuming any
liability, obligation, cost or expense
whatsoever with respect to any employment

respect of any of its obligations
thereunder. As of the Closing Date, all
