ARTICLE III
CONDITIONS TO THE PARTIES' OBLIGATIONS
3.1
CONDITIONS TO PURCHASER'S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE. Purchaser's
obligation to purchase is expressly
conditioned upon each of the following:
3.2
PERFORMANCE BY SELLER. Performance in all material respects of
the obligations and covenants of, and
deliveries required of, Seller hereunder.
3.2.1 DELIVERY
OF TITLE AND POSSESSION. Delivery at the
Closing of (I) the Deed (as defined in SECTION 4.2.1) and (II)
possession as provided in SECTION 15.1.
3.2.2 TITLE
INSURANCE. Delivery at the Closing of the standard
current form of Texas owner's policy of title insurance (the
"TITLE
POLICY"), or an irrevocable commitment to issue the same, with
liability
in the amount of the Purchase Price issued by Stewart Title
Guaranty
Company (the "TITLE COMPANY"), insuring that fee title to the
Real
Property vests in Purchaser subject to the Permitted Encumbrances
(as
defined in SECTION 4.2.1). (At its option, Purchaser may direct
the
Title Company to issue additional title insurance endorsements
if
Purchaser pays for the extra cost of such additional
endorsements,
provided that the Title Company's failure to issue any such
additional
endorsements shall not affect Purchaser's obligations under
this
Agreement).
3.2.3 SELLER'S
REPRESENTATIONS. The representations and
warranties by Seller set forth in SECTION 11.1 being true and
correct in
all material respects as of the Closing except as modified by
notice (in
accordance with SECTION 11.1) to which Purchaser does not object
in
writing within three (3) business days after receipt thereof (it
being
agreed that the foregoing condition shall be deemed to have failed
if
Seller delivers a notice in accordance with SECTION 11.1 and
Purchaser
sends written objection thereto within such three (3) business
day
period).
3.2.4 TENANT
ESTOPPELS. Seller shall have obtained and
delivered to Purchaser, at least five (5) business days prior to
the
Final Closing Date (the "ESTOPPEL RETURN DATE"), a tenant
estoppel
certificate with respect to each Lease executed by each tenant
(and, if
applicable, each guarantor) under such Lease, which estoppel
certificate
shall (i) be in the form of EXHIBIT E attached hereto,
provided,
however, that the form of tenant estoppel certificate shall
reflect
appropriate changes thereto for any tenant that has specific
requirements in its Lease regarding the form or content of the
tenant
estoppel certificate; and (ii) disclose no matter that might
materially
and adversely affect the value of the Property and shall confirm
the
rents payable by such tenant and the other matters set forth in
EXHIBIT
E (the foregoing condition being herein referred to as the
"TENANT
ESTOPPEL CONDITION"). The term "materially and adversely affect
the
value of the Property" shall be deemed to be a condition that
affects
the value in an amount that exceeds $75,000.00, provided, however,
that
if Seller elects in its sole discretion, to provide Purchaser at
Closing
with a credit against the Purchase Price or with other
3
<PAGE>
security that is reasonably acceptable to Purchaser for such
condition
then such estoppel certificate shall be accepted by Purchaser
notwithstanding such condition. An executed tenant estoppel
certificate
that meets the requirements set forth in the preceding sentence
is
herein referred to as a "TENANT ESTOPPEL". Seller shall use
commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain a Tenant Estoppel with respect to
each
Lease. Seller shall deliver each Tenant Estoppel to Purchaser
(regardless of whether it complies with this Agreement)
promptly
following Seller's receipt thereof. In the event that Seller is
unable
to satisfy the Tenant Estoppel Condition by the Estoppel Return
Date,
Seller shall not be in default under this Agreement. However, if
the
Tenant Estoppel Condition is not fulfilled as of the Estoppel
Return
Date, then, for three (3) business days thereafter, Purchaser shall
have
the option either to (a) waive the Tenant Estoppel Condition, (b)
extend
the Final Closing Date for up to fourteen (14) days to allow Seller
more
time to obtain additional Tenant Estoppels; or (c) terminate
this
Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to
Purchaser. If
Purchaser elects to extend the Final Closing Date pursuant to
clause (b)
of the preceding sentence and the Tenant Estoppel Condition is
still not
fulfilled on or before the expiration of the fourteen (14) day
extension
period, then Purchaser may elect one of the options set forth in
clauses
(a) and (c) of the preceding sentence.
3.3
CONDITIONS TO SELLER'S OBLIGATION TO SELL. Seller's obligation
to sell is expressly conditioned upon each
of the following:
3.3.1
PERFORMANCE BY PURCHASER. Performance in all material
respects of the obligations and covenants of, and deliveries
required
of, Purchaser hereunder.
3.3.2 RECEIPT OF
PURCHASE PRICE. Receipt of the Purchase Price
and any adjustments due Seller under ARTICLE VII at the Closing in
the
manner herein provided.
3.4
ERISA. Seller and Purchaser hereby agree that if the
transactions contemplated hereby are or may
be prohibited transactions under
Section 406 of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
and supplemented ("ERISA"), Seller shall
not be obligated to sell, and Purchaser
shall not be obligated to purchase, the
Property pursuant to this Agreement.
Within five (5) business days after the
Effective Date, the parties shall agree
in writing to the form of representations
as is necessary in order for each
party to determine whether the transaction
contemplated hereby may be prohibited
under ERISA and related rules, which agreed
upon representations without
amendment to the Agreement shall be deemed
to be added to this Agreement If
either party determines, in its reasonable
discretion, that the transaction
contemplated hereby may be prohibited under
ERISA and related rules, then either
party may terminate this Agreement by
written notice thereof to the other party
no later seven (7) business days after the
Effective Date, and upon such
termination the Deposit shall be returned
to Purchaser and neither party shall
thereafter have any further liability or
obligations hereunder, except for those
obligations stated herein to survive such
termination.

by

Purchaser agrees to provide Seller upon Seller's written request
with a
copy of any written inspection or test report or summary prepared

correct any exception or matter disapproved
by Purchaser or to spend any money
or incur any expense in order to do so;
provided, however, Seller shall be
obligated to remove from record the lien of
any mortgage or deed of trust

there are additional encumbrances not
included within the Permitted Encumbrances,

the
date of Closing, all income and expenses with respect to the
Property
and payable to or by the owner of the Property, including,
without
limitation: (I) all real property taxes and assessments on the
basis of
the fiscal period for which assessed (if the Closing shall occur
before
the tax rate is fixed, the apportionment of taxes shall be based on
the
tax rate for the preceding period applied to the latest
assessed
valuation and after the Closing, when the actual real property
taxes are
finally fixed, Seller and Purchaser shall promptly make a
recalculation
of such proration, and the appropriate party shall make the
applicable
payment reflecting the recalculation to the other party); (II)
rents and
other tenant payments and tenant reimbursements (collectively,
"TENANT
PAYMENTS") if any, received under the Leases; (III) Tenant
Payments,
whether collected or not, for any tenant which is not delinquent on
all
Tenant Payments through the month prior to the month of the
Closing;
(IV) charges for water, sewer, electricity, gas, fuel and other
utility
charges, all of which shall be read promptly before Closing,
unless
Seller elects to close its own applicable account, in which
event
Purchaser shall open its own account and the respective charges
shall
not be prorated; (v) amounts prepaid and amounts accrued but unpaid
on
Contracts which are to be assumed by Purchaser; and (vi) periodic
fees
for licenses, permits or other authorizations with respect to
the
Property. The adjustment obligation in item (i) above shall survive
the
Closing pursuant to SECTION 7.1.5(2).
7.1.2 LEASING
COMMISSIONS. At the Closing Purchaser shall pay
or reimburse Seller for all leasing commissions, tenant
improvement
costs and other charges payable by reason of or in connection with
any
Lease entered into after the Effective Date, any renewal or
extension of
an existing Lease after such date, and any new lease referred to
in
SECTION 13.4, provided that Purchaser has previously approved
same
pursuant to SECTION 13.3 or SECTION 13.4, as applicable. Purchaser
shall
be and remain responsible for any leasing commissions becoming
payable
after Closing for any renewal, extension or other option under
any
existing or future lease.
7.1.3 TAXES.
(1)
Real property tax refunds and credits received
after the Closing which are attributable to a fiscal tax year
prior to the Closing shall belong to Seller. Any such refunds
and credits attributable to the fiscal tax year during which
the
Closing occurs shall be apportioned between Seller and
Purchaser
after deducting the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of
collection thereof. This apportionment obligation shall survive
the Closing.
(2)
If any tax appeal or certiorari proceedings
shall not have been finally resolved or settled prior to the
Closing and shall relate to any tax period a
10
<PAGE>
portion or all of which precedes the Closing, Seller shall be
entitled to control the disposition of any such tax appeal or
certiorari proceeding and any refunds received therefrom, net
of
any expenses incurred by Seller in connection therewith, shall
be prorated between the parties on the basis of the portions
accruing to periods before and after the Closing.
7.1.4 SECURITY
AND OTHER DEPOSITS. At the Closing, Seller
shall deliver to Purchaser all unapplied refundable security
deposits
(plus interest accrued thereon to the extent required to be paid by
the
applicable Lease or applicable law) required to be held by Seller
under
the Leases and Purchaser shall pay Seller an amount equal to all
utility
and contract deposits then held by third parties with respect to
the
Property and transferred to Purchaser hereunder. If any
security
deposits shall be held by Seller in the form of letters of credit
or
surety bonds, Seller shall assign its rights thereunder to
Purchaser and
shall cooperate reasonably with Purchaser in respect of the
reissuance
of any such letters of credit or bonds in the name of
Purchaser.
7.1.5
ADJUSTMENTS.
(1)
Delinquent Tenant Payments other than such
amounts prorated pursuant to SECTION 7.1.1 (III), if any, shall
not be prorated and all rights thereto shall be retained by
Seller, who reserves the right to collect and retain such
delinquent Tenant Payments, and Purchaser agrees to cooperate
with
Seller in Seller's efforts to collect such Tenant Payments;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Seller shall not be entitled to
commence
any disposition or eviction proceeding against the delinquent
tenant. If at any time after the Closing Purchaser shall
receive
any such delinquent Tenant Payments (all of which Purchaser
shall use reasonable efforts to obtain), Purchaser shall
immediately remit such Tenant Payments to Seller, provided that
any monies received by Purchaser from a delinquent tenant shall
be applied first to current rents then due and payable and then
to delinquent rents in the inverse order in which they became
due and payable. The previous sentence shall survive the
Closing. If the Tenant Payments required to be made by any
tenants include percentage rent, additional rent or escalation
charges or reimbursements for real property taxes, operating
expenses or other charges, Seller and Purchaser shall at the
Closing reasonably estimate the unpaid amount thereof
attributable to any period prior to the Closing and Purchaser
shall pay such amount to Seller at the Closing.
(2)
If real property taxes are apportioned at
Closing based on the tax rate for the preceding period applied
to the
latest assessed valuation (or based on such other
estimate as the parties may agree) and if prior to December 1,
2005, actual or better estimates of tax rates and assessed
valuation become available, the parties agree to reapportion
such real property taxes based on such updated information. If
neither Seller nor Purchaser has received written request from
the other prior to such date, to reapportion such real property
taxes, then Purchaser and Seller shall each be deemed to have
waived any right to seek such reapportionment.
11
<PAGE>
(3)
Seller and Purchaser agree to adjust between
themselves after Closing any errors or omissions in the
prorations made at Closing; provided, however, that such
prorations shall be deemed final and not subject to further
post
Closing adjustments if no such adjustments have been requested
within nine (9) months after the Closing.

Seller's existing liability and property
insurance pertaining to the Property shall be canceled as of
the
Closing, and Seller shall receive any premium refund due
thereon.
7.1.7 CARPET
REIMBURSEMENT. At Closing, Seller shall be
credited the sum of $24,676.79 against any sums owed by Seller
under
this Agreement in reimbursement of the new lobby carpet in
Landmark
Center II so long as the tenant estoppel received by Purchaser
at
Closing confirms tenant's obligation to pay such sum in the future
to
Purchaser as the successor landlord. If such tenant shall not so
confirm
such payment obligation in the estoppel certificate, Seller shall
have
the continuing right after Closing to pursue such tenant for
such
reimbursement directly, provided that Seller shall not have the
right to
assert that tenant's failure to pay such amount can result in a
loss of
possession of the premises by tenant.
7.1.8 TRANSFER
OF WARRANTIES. Seller agrees to complete any
documentation that may be required by a warrantor in order to
consummate
an assignment to Purchaser of any warranties included in the

Survey, (V) any costs incurred in

the
failure of a condition set forth in SECTION
3.1 or SECTION 3.3 and other than a
termination of this Agreement pursuant to,
SECTION 10.2 or ARTICLE XII),
Purchaser fails to complete the acquisition

released from any further obligations
hereunder. BY INITIALING BELOW, PURCHASER
AND SELLER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE
THAT SELLER'S ACTUAL DAMAGES IN THE
EVENT OF SUCH A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT BY
PURCHASER WOULD BE EXTREMELY
DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE, THAT
THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT IS THE
PARTIES' BEST AND MOST ACCURATE ESTIMATE OF
THE DAMAGES SELLER WOULD SUFFER IN

SELLER SHALL NOT BE RESTRICTED BY THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.1 FROM
BRINGING AN ACTION AGAINST PURCHASER
SEEKING EXPUNGEMENT OR RELIEF FROM ANY
IMPROPERLY FILED LIS PENDENS, INJUNCTION OR
OTHER RESTRAINT, AND/OR RECOVERING
FEES, COSTS AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING
ATTORNEYS' FEES) WHICH SELLER MAY SUFFER OR
INCUR AS A RESULT OF ANY PURCHASER'S ACTION
BUT ONLY TO THE EXTENT THAT SELLER
IS THE PREVAILING PARTY; AND THE AMOUNT OF
ANY SUCH FEES, COSTS AND EXPENSES
AWARDED TO SELLER SHALL BE IN ADDITION TO
THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SET FORTH
HEREIN. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL,
HOWEVER, BE DEEMED TO LIMIT PURCHASER'S
LIABILITY TO SELLER FOR DAMAGES OR
INJUNCTIVE RELIEF FOR BREACH OF PURCHASER'S
INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 5.2.5
ABOVE OR FOR ATTORNEYS' FEES AND COSTS
AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 16.5 BELOW.

Purchaser
10.2
PURCHASER'S REMEDIES. If the sale is not completed as herein
provided solely by reason of a default of
Seller, Purchaser shall be entitled,
as its sole and exclusive remedy, to either
(i) (a) terminate this Agreement (by
delivering notice to Seller which includes
a waiver of any right, title or
interest of Purchaser in the Property) and
(b) if Purchaser so elects, pursue an
action at law for recovery of Purchaser's
actual out-of-pocket third-party costs
incurred as part of Purchaser's due
diligence efforts hereunder, subject to a
cap of $25,000, which action must be
15
<PAGE>
commenced, if at all, within the thirty
(30) day period following the occurrence
of such material default of Seller (the
"LIMITATION PERIOD"); or (ii) treat this
Agreement as being in full force and effect
and pursue only the specific
performance of this Agreement, provided
that Purchaser must commence any action
for specific performance within thirty (30)
days after the scheduled Final
Closing Date. Purchaser waives any right to
pursue any other remedy at law or
equity for such default of Seller,
including, without limitation, any right to
seek, claim or obtain damages (other than
for costs under (i) (b) above),
punitive damages or consequential damages.
In no case shall Seller ever be
liable to Purchaser under any statutory,
common law, equitable or other theory
of law, either prior to or following the
Closing, for any lost rents, profits,
"benefit of the bargain," business
opportunities or any form of consequential
damage in connection with any claim,
liability, demand or cause of action in any
way or manner relating to the Property, the
condition of the Property, this
Agreement, or any transaction or matter
between the parties contemplated
hereunder. Purchaser's remedies hereunder
are in addition to the right to
receive the return of the Deposit, subject
to Section 9.4, to the extent it is
not applied to the Purchase Price in
connection with Purchaser's action for
specific performance.

in this SECTION 11.1 constitute
representations and warranties by Seller which

in any notice given pursuant to the
next succeeding sentence) shall, in all
material respects, at the Closing be
true and correct. If Seller has actual
knowledge that any of the representations
and warranties contained in this ARTICLE XI
may cease to be true, Seller shall
give prompt notice to Purchaser (which
notice shall include copies of the
instrument, correspondence, or document, if
any, upon which Seller's notice is

liability on the part of such Property
Manager(s). To the extent Purchaser has or
acquires actual knowledge or is
deemed to know prior to the date of this
Agreement that these representations
and warranties are inaccurate, untrue or
incorrect in any way, such
representations and warranties shall be
deemed modified to reflect Purchaser's
knowledge or deemed knowledge. Purchaser
sha
