Purchaser shall acknowledge in writing its receipt of each
Due
Diligence Item and immediately deliver such acknowledgement to
Seller. Within
fourteen (14) days after the Effective Date, Purchaser shall
notify Seller in
writing in the event that Purchaser has not yet received any Due
Diligence Item
(which notice shall specify any Due Diligence Item not yet
received) or
Purchaser shall be deemed to have received all of the Due
Diligence Items.
Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that except for such items
which
are in the public records, the Due Diligence Items are
proprietary and
confidential in nature and have been or will be made available
to Purchaser
solely to assist Purchaser in determining the feasibility of
purchasing the
Property. Purchaser agrees not to disclose the Due Diligence
Items or any of the
provisions, terms or conditions thereof to any party outside of
Purchaser's
organization except: (i) to Purchaser's accountants, attorneys,
lenders,
prospective lenders, investors and/or prospective investors
(collectively, the
"PERMITTED OUTSIDE PARTIES") in connection with the transactions
contemplated by
this Agreement, or (ii) as may be required by law. In permitting
Purchaser and
the Permitted Outside Parties to review the Due Diligence Items
to assist
Purchaser, Seller has not waived any privilege or claim of
confidentiality with
respect thereto and no third party benefits of any kind, either
expressed or
implied, have been offered, intended or created by Seller and
any such claims
are expressly rejected by Seller and waived by Purchaser.
At such time as this Agreement is terminated for any reason
other
than Seller's default, Purchaser shall return to Seller all of
the Due Diligence
Items and any and all copies Purchaser has made of the Due
Diligence Items,
along with copies of any and all reports, tests or studies
relating to the
Property that Purchaser has obtained. In the event this
Agreement is terminated
as a result of Seller's default, Purchaser shall return all the
Due Diligence
Items and any and all copies Purchaser has made of the Due
Diligence Items,
except for copies of such Due Diligence Items that are directly
related to or
evidence such Seller default. Purchaser's obligations under this
Section 4 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement.
Purchaser acknowledges that most of the Due Diligence Items
were
prepared by third parties other than Seller and in most
instances, were prepared
prior to Seller's ownership of the Property. Purchaser further
acknowledges and
agrees that except as specifically set forth herein: (i) neither
Seller nor any
of its partners, agents, employees or contractors have made any
warranty or
representation regarding the truth, accuracy or completeness of
the Due
Diligence Items or the sources thereof and Purchaser has not
relied on the truth
or completeness of the Due Diligence Items; and (ii) Seller has
not undertaken
any independent investigation as to the truth, accuracy and
completeness of the
Due Diligence Items and is providing the Due Diligence Items or
making the Due
Diligence Items available to Purchaser solely as an
accommodation to Purchaser.
5. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.
A. Conditions Precedent to Purchaser's Obligations.
(i) During, but in no event later than the expiration
of, the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall give Seller written
notice indicating
whether the Due Diligence Items, the condition of the Property,
or title thereto
is unsatisfactory and specifying any matters disclosed therein
which are not
satisfactory or to which Purchaser otherwise objects (the
"OBJECTION NOTICE").
In the event Seller fails to receive the Objection Notice
timely, Purchaser
shall be deemed to have accepted the condition of the Property
as disclosed in
the Due Diligence Items, at which time, Purchaser's Deposit
shall become
non-refundable but for Seller's default. Seller acknowledges
that during the
Inspection Period Purchaser will be trying to create a master
lease covering all
of the Properties.
4
<PAGE>
(ii) In the event that either: (i) Purchaser indicates
in the Objection Notice that the Property or the Due Diligence
Items are not
satisfactory in any respect; or (ii) Purchaser discovers and
informs Seller in
writing of or Seller informs Purchaser of any change in the
status of title to
the Property occurring after the Effective Date and resulting in
an encumbrance
thereon in addition to the Leases and the Permitted Exceptions
(each a "TITLE
DEFECT"), Seller may promptly undertake to cure the items
specified in the
Objection Notice or eliminate any such Title Defect to the
reasonable
satisfaction of Purchaser and/or, to the extent possible, cause
the Title
Company to insure over any of such items or Title Defect to the
satisfaction of
Purchaser and accordingly modify the Title Commitments. In the
event Seller
elects not to effect such cure or is either unable to do so or
have the Title
Company so insure over Purchaser's objections within ten (10)
days after receipt
by Seller of the Objection Notice or notice of any Title Defect,
Purchaser may,
at its option: (1) waive any of its objections to the condition
of the Property
described in the Due Diligence Items and set forth in the
Objection Notice or
relating to the Title Defect, without any adjustment in the
Purchase Price; or
(2) terminate this Agreement, in either event by giving prompt
written notice
thereof to Seller. In the event Purchaser elects to terminate
this Agreement,
the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither Seller
nor Purchaser
shall have any further obligations under this Agreement, except
as expressly set
forth herein.
(iii) If any new Title Defects arise after the
expiration or waiver of the Inspection Period and prior to
Closing, Seller may
promptly undertake to eliminate such new Title Defects to the
reasonable
satisfaction of Purchaser and/or, to the extent possible, cause
the Title
Company to insure over any of such new Title Defects to the
satisfaction of
Purchaser. In the event Seller elects not to effect such cure or
is either
unable to do so or have the Title Company so insure over such
new Title Defects
by the Closing (which Seller may extend by up to ten (10)
business days in order
to cure and remove (or procure title insurance over) the same),
Purchaser may,
at its option: (1) waive any of its objections to the new Title
Defects, without
any adjustment in the Purchase Price; or (2) terminate this
Agreement, in either
event by giving prompt written notice thereof to Seller by the
Closing Date (as
the same may have been extended by Seller under this
subparagraph (iii)). In the
event Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, the Deposit
shall be
returned to Purchaser and neither Seller nor Purchaser shall
have any further
obligations under this Agreement, except as expressly set forth
herein.
Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this subparagraph (iii)
to the contrary,
if the new Title Defect was the result of a Tenant's acts or
omission to act and
is required to be removed by such Tenant pursuant to the terms
of its Lease,
then Purchaser shall have automatically elected to proceed in
accordance with
option (1) under this subparagraph (iii).
(iv) Upon expiration or Purchaser's earlier waiver of
the Inspection Period, Seller will make a one time request from
each Tenant for
a current estoppel certificate and a subordination,
non-disturbance and
attornment agreement ("SNDA") in the form contemplated by the
Leases, if any. If
the form of Tenant estoppel certificate and SNDA is not
prescribed by the Leases
and Purchaser submits to Seller the form of estoppel and SNDA
either preferred
by it or required by its lender, if any, prior to the expiration
of the
Inspection Period, Seller will submit such form of estoppel and
SNDA to each
Tenant if such form is reasonable as determined by Seller.
Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that
Seller is unable to
provide the estoppel and SNDA required by at least eighty
percent (80%)
("THRESHOLD") of the Leases or any Tenant alleges that there are
outstanding
material events of default under the Leases which cannot be
resolved to
Purchaser's reasonable satisfaction by the Closing Date, then
Purchaser's sole
remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement and receive the
prompt return of the
Deposit. Seller shall be under no obligation to update such
estoppel certificate
and/or SNDA received from any Tenant. Purchaser acknowledges and
agrees that the
Threshold is comprised of the Leases and those other "Leases"
(as defined in the
"Separate Agreement" (defined below)).
5
<PAGE>
(v) Purchaser acknowledges that certain of the Leases
provide the Tenant with a right of first refusal (as disclosed
on Exhibit "C")
to purchase the Property subject to the terms of such Lease
("RIGHT OF FIRST
REFUSAL"). Promptly following the Effective Date, Seller will
use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause any Tenant that has a Right of First
Refusal to, on
or before the expiration of the Inspection Period, either waive
or elect to
purchase such Property. If any such Tenant: (a) fails to respond
to Seller's
notice within the time period specified in such Lease, then such
Tenant will be
deemed to have waived its Right of First Refusal; and (b) elects
to exercise its
Right of First Refusal for a Property (1) such Property will be
removed from
this Agreement, (2) the Purchase Price will be reduced by the
amount allocated
to such Property as reflected in Exhibit "C", and (3) Seller
will reimburse
Purchaser for all due diligence costs incurred by Purchaser in
performing its
due diligence investigations with respect to such Property, by
providing
Purchaser with a credit against the Purchase Price at
Closing.
B. Conditions Precedent to Seller's Obligations. If, prior to
the
expiration of the Inspection Period, Seller is unable to
arrange, upon terms and
conditions satisfactory to Seller, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to
payoff Seller's existing loan secured by the Properties, Seller
may, at its
option, terminate this Agreement by written notice to Purchaser
in which event,
the Deposit will be returned to Purchaser.
6. PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS. Seller shall convey the Property to
Purchaser
subject to: (i) all property taxes and assessments not yet due
and payable; (ii)
all matters created by or on behalf of Purchaser, including,
without limitation,
any documents or instruments to be recorded as part of any
financing of the
Property by Purchaser; and (iii) any easements, liens,
exceptions and other
encumbrances noted in the Title Commitments, the Surveys and the
Leases
(collectively, the "PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS").

any material
representation or warranty of Seller is untrue and can not be

Agreement within five (5) days after having knowledge of such
the existence of
any untrue material representation or warranty, Purchaser shall
be deemed to
have waived the breach of such representation or warranty and
shall have no
further rights or remedies as a result of the same. Seller does
not, by this
Agreement, represent or warrant that there will be no changes in

after the

other than Seller,
and shall have no liability or responsibility in the event that
any
representation or warranty becomes false or misleading as a
result of any change
in circumstances after the Effective Date.

(which
is true and correct as of the Effective Date, and shall be true
and correct as
of the date of Closing) that Purchaser is a limited liability
company, duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the State of

Purchaser's knowledge,
violate any provision of any agreement or judicial order to
which Purchaser is a
party or to which Purchaser is subject.

the Title

contingent
upon the Title Company furnishing to Purchaser the Title
Policies (or executed
mark-ups of the same) and each Tenant executing and delivering
to Purchaser an
estoppel certificate in accordance with the provisions of the
Leases. Purchaser
specifically acknowledges that Seller's failure to deliver the
foregoing items

law or in
equity, terminate this Agreement and receive the immediate
return of its
Deposit.
12. CLOSING COSTS. At the Closing, except for Seller's

A. Taxes. Purchaser acknowledges that the Leases obligate
each
Tenant to pay the taxes directly to the taxing authority.
Accordingly, the
parties shall not prorate taxes between Purchaser and Seller, it
being
acknowledged that each Tenant shall be responsible for same. In
no event shall
Seller be responsible for the payment of any real estate taxes
and/or
assessments applicable during its period of ownership in the
event any Tenant
has defaulted in the prompt payment of same.
B. Rent. Rent actually paid for the month in which the
Closing
occurs shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of the
close of
business on the date of Closing, with Purchaser receiving a
credit for amounts
attributable to time periods following such date. To the extent
either party
receives rent after the Closing to which the other has a claim,
such party shall
remit same to the party entitled thereto within ten (10) days of
receipt. If at
the time of the Closing any rent arrearages exist under any
Lease: (i) Seller
shall have the right, to the extent it is holding a security
deposit under such
Lease, to set-off against such security deposit for such
arrearages; (ii) for
the month in which the Closing occurs, Purchaser agrees that the
first monies
received by Purchaser from said Tenant shall be received on
account of rent due
for the month of Closing; and (iii) for any period prior to the
month in which
the Closing occurs, all monies received by Purchaser from said
Tenant shall
first be applied to rents owed to Purchaser and the balance, if
any, will be
remitted to Seller. Purchaser agrees that Seller may attempt to
collect any
delinquent rents owed Seller for any period prior to the month
in which the
Closing occurs and may institute any lawsuit or collection
procedures, but may
not: (x) evict or bring any proceeding to evict any Tenant; (ii)
terminate any
Lease; or (iii) terminate a Tenant's right to possession.

C. Security Deposits. Seller will provide Purchaser with a
credit
in the amount of all unapplied security deposits being held by
Seller pursuant
to the terms of the Leases.
14. POSSESSION. Subject to the Leases, Seller shall deliver
exclusive
possession of the Property to Purchaser at Closing.
15. INSPECTION. During the Inspection Period, Seller agrees
that
Purchaser, its representatives, agents, employees, lenders,

(collectively
"PERMITTEES") shall, subject to arranging all onsite visits with
Seller and/or
Seller's Broker, be entitled to enter upon the Property for
inspection, soil
tests, examination, land-use planning and for any due diligence
investigation
relating to Purchaser's proposed ownership of the Property. As
to any such
investigation, Purchaser shall restore the Property to the same
condition as
existed prior to any such investigation, and shall not: (i)
perform any invasive
tests without Seller's prior consent, which may be withheld in
Seller's sole and
absolute discretion; or (ii) interfere with the possessory
rights of any Tenant.
Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, its
partners,
officers, directors, members, shareholders, employees, agents,

the "SELLER INDEMNIFIED PARTIES") harmless from any and all
losses, liabilities,
fines, penalties and damages (including without limitation any
damages or injury
to persons, property or to the environment as provided
hereunder), or actions or
claims in respect thereof (including without limitation, amounts
paid in
settlement, reasonable cost of investigation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and
other legal expenses and reasonable fees of other professionals)
(collectively
"LOSSES") which any of the Seller Indemnified Parties may suffer
or sustain as a
result of the exercise by Purchaser of its rights (and that of
its Permittees)
to enter upon the Property pursuant to this Section. The terms
of this Section
will survive the Closing and the termination of this
Agreement.
16. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
A. As-Is. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS
EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND AS A MATERIAL
INDUCEMENT TO SELLER'S
EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE SALE OF THE
PROPERTY AS PROVIDED
FOR HEREIN IS MADE ON AN "AS IS, WHERE IS" CONDITION AND BASIS
"WITH ALL
FAULTS." Purchaser acknowledges, represents and warrants that
Purchaser is not
in a significantly disparate bargaining position with respect to
Seller in
connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement;
that Purchaser
freely and fairly agreed to this acknowledgment as part of the
negotiations for
the transaction contemplated by this Agreement; that Purchaser
is represented by
legal counsel in connection with this transaction and Purchaser
has conferred
with such legal counsel concerning this waiver. Except for the
representations
and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement, no
representations or
warranties have been made or are made and no responsibility has
been or is
assumed by any of the Seller Indemnified Parties or anyone
acting or purporting
to act on behalf of the Seller Indemnified Parties as to the
condition or repair
of the Property or the value, expense of operation, or income
potential thereof
or as to any other fact or condition which has or might affect
the Property or
the condition, repair, value, expense of operation or income
potential of the
Property or any portion thereof. The parties agree that all
understandings and
agreements made between them or their respective agents or
representatives prior
to the Effective Date are merged in this Agreement and the
attached Exhibits,
which alone fully and completely express their agreement, and
that this
Agreement has been entered into with Purchaser being provided
ample opportunity
to investigate all aspects of the Property, with neither party
relying upon any
statement or representation by the other unless such statement
or representation
is specifically embodied in this Agreement or the attached
Exhibits. Except as
set forth in this Agreement, Seller makes no representations or
warranties as to
whether the Property contains asbestos or any hazardous
materials or harmful or
toxic substances, or pertaining to the extent, location or
nature of same, if
any. Further, to the extent that Seller has provided to
Purchaser information
from any inspection, engineering or environmental reports
concerning asbestos
10
<PAGE>
or any hazardous materials or harmful or toxic substances,
Seller makes no
representations or warranties with respect to the accuracy or
completeness,
methodology of preparation or otherwise concerning the contents
of such reports.
Purchaser acknowledges that Seller has requested that Purchaser
inspect the
Property fully and carefully and investigate all matters
relevant thereto and
that Purchaser rely solely upon the results of Purchaser's own
inspections or
other information obtained or otherwise available to Purchaser,
rather than any
information that may have been provided by Seller to
Purchaser.
B. Release of Seller. Purchaser for itself and each of its
present and future directors, members, shareholders, officers,
employees,
agents, parties, affiliates, representatives, attorneys,
subsidiaries, parent
and affiliated corporations, predecessors, successors, and
assigns
(collectively, "PURCHASER-RELATED ENTITIES"), hereby fully and
irrevocably
releases, acquits and discharges the Seller Indemnified Parties
from any and all
Losses, whether known or unknown, existing or potential, which
Purchaser or the
Purchaser-Related Entities have or assert or hereafter may have
or assert,
against any of the Seller Indemnified Parties by reason of any
purported act or
omission on the part of any of the Seller Indemnified Parties
occurring prior to
the Closing, which Losses are based upon, arise out of, or are
in any way
connected with any of the following (each, a "CLAIM" and
collectively, the
"CLAIMS"): (i) the condition, status, quality, nature,
contamination or
environmental state of the Property; (ii) any violation of,
noncompliance with,
or enforcement of applicable laws, regulations or ordinances
with respect to the
Property; or (iii) any use, generation, storage, release,
threatened release,
discharge, disposal, or presence of any "Hazardous Materials"
(defined below)
on, under, or about the Property or, to the extent affecting the
Property, any
property in the vicinity of the Property; provided however,
nothing contained in
this Section shall release Seller from Seller's representations
and warranties
set forth in this Agreement, or Seller's fraud. The term
"HAZARDOUS MATERIALS"
means and includes flammable explosives, petroleum (including
crude oil),
radioactive materials, hazardous wastes, toxic substances or
related materials,
including, without limitation, any substances defined as or
included in the
definition of toxic or hazardous substances, wastes or materials
under any
federal or applicable state or local laws, ordinances or
regulations dealing
with or otherwise pertaining to toxic or hazardous substances,
wastes, or
materials (collectively, "HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES LAWS").
C. Indemnification of Seller.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, Purchaser, to the maximum extent permitted by law, shall
be solely
responsible for, and shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend
with counsel
acceptable to Seller in its reasonable discretion, the Seller
Indemnified
Parties from and against any and all Losses arising out of, or
resulting from or
claimed to arise out of or result from, in whole or in part, but
only to the
extent of, any of the following (collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED
ACTS"): (i) any
violation of, noncompliance with, or enforcement of, any
Hazardous Substances
Laws with respect to the Property; or (ii) the release,
discharge, disposal, or
presence of Hazardous Materials, on, under or about the
Property. The Losses
referred to herein shall include, without limitation, all
foreseeable
consequential damages and the cost of any required or necessary
repair, cleanup,
or detoxification of the Property or any property in the
vicinity of the
Property, and the preparation and implementation of any closure,
remedial, or
other required plans in connection therewith.
(ii) In the event that any suit or other proceeding is
brought against any of the Seller Indemnified Parties at any
time on account of
any of the Losses, Purchaser shall, upon the request of Seller
and the Seller
Indemnified Parties: (i) assume the defense of Seller and the
Seller Indemnified
Parties, as the case may be; (ii) defend Seller and the Seller
Indemnified
Parties, at Purchaser's own expense with counsel acceptable to
Seller or the
Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, in their reasonable
discretion; and
(iii) pay all judgments, fines, penalties and other fees and
expenses in
connection therewith.
11
<PAGE>
(iii) In the event that: (i) a final adjudication determines
that Seller took one of the Indemnified Acts prior to the
Closing Date that
directly and proximately caused the Losses, and (ii) Seller
failed to inform
Purchaser of such Indemnified Act prior to the Closing Date,
then Seller shall
reimburse Purchaser for all amounts previously paid by Purchaser
pursuant to
Section 16(C)(ii), and Purchaser's obligation to indemnify
Seller with respect
to such Indemnified Act pursuant to this Section 16(C)(iii)
shall terminate.
D. Survival of Indemnity and Release. The obligations of
Purchaser pursuant to Section 16(B) and Section 16(C) shall
survive the Closing.
17. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Seller and Purchaser agree to use
commercially
reasonable efforts to perform such other acts, and to execute,
acknowledge,
and/or deliver subsequent to the Closing such other instruments,
documents and
other materials as Seller or Purchaser may reasonably request in
order to
effectuate the consummation of the transactions contemplated
herein and to vest
title to the Property in Purchaser.
18. DEFAULT BY SELLER. In the event that Seller should fail
to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for
any reason,
excepting Purchaser's default or the failure of any of the
conditions to
Seller's obligations hereunder to be satisfied or waived,
Purchaser may, as its
sole remedy at law or in equity, elect to either: (i) terminate
this Agreement
by giving prompt written notice thereof to Seller, in which
event the Deposit
will be returned to Purchaser; or (ii) specifically enforce this
Agreement.
Furthermore, if Purchaser elects to specifically enforce this
Agreement it must
institute such action within forty-five (45) days following
Seller's default,
failing which Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the right
to pursue
specific performance.
19. DEFAULT BY PURCHASER. In the event Purchaser should fail
to
consummate the transaction contemplated herein for any reason,
except default by
Seller or the failure of any of the conditions to Purchaser's
obligations
hereunder to be satisfied or waived, Seller may either: (i)
grant Purchaser
additional time to cure such default; or (ii) terminate the
Agreement, in which
event Seller shall retain the Deposit as liquidated damages in
lieu of all other
remedies available to Seller and this Agreement shall become
null and void with
neither party having any further rights or liabilities
hereunder, except as
provided for in this Agreement. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge
and agree that:
(x) it would be extremely difficult to accurately determine the
amount of
damages suffered by Seller as a result of Purchaser's default
hereunder; (y) the
Deposit is a fair and reasonable amount to be retained by Seller
as agreed and
liquidated damages for Purchaser's default under this Agreement;
and (z)
retention by Seller of the Deposit upon Purchaser's default
hereunder shall not
constitute a penalty or forfeiture.
However, the liquidated damages provision does not preclude
Seller from
pursuing any: (i) claims for the return or delivery of Due
Diligence Items; (ii)
actions to expunge a lis pendens or other clouds on title caused
by Purchaser;
(iii) claims on account of Purchaser's indemnity obligations
under this
Agreement; and (iv) attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Seller
incident to
subparagraphs (i) through (iii).
20. ATTORNEY'S FEES. In the event of any legal action or
other
proceeding between the parties regarding this Agreement or the
Property (an
"ACTION"), the prevailing party shall be entitled to the payment
by the losing
party of its reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and
litigation expenses, as
determined by the court. The term "prevailing party" as used
herein includes,
without limitation, a party: (i) who agrees to dismiss an Action
on the other
party's performance of the covenants allegedly breached, (ii)
who obtains
substantially the relief it has sought; or (iii) against whom an
Action is
dismissed (with or without prejudice). In addition, the
prevailing party in any
Action shall be entitled, in addition to and separately from the
amounts
recoverable under this Section, to the payment by the losing
party of the
12
<PAGE>
prevailing party's reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and
litigation
expenses incurred in connection with: (y) any appellate review
of the judgment
rendered in such Action or of any other ruling in such Action;
and (z) any
proceeding to enforce a judgment in such Action. It is the
intent of the parties
that the provisions of this Section be distinct and severable
from the other
rights of the parties under this Agreement, shall survive the
entry of judgment
in any Action and shall not be merged into such judgment.
21. BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. Each party represents to the other
that no
brokers other than Broker has been involved in this transaction,
and Broker has
represented Seller. In the event that this transaction is
consummated and
closing occurs, Seller shall pay Broker a real estate commission
as set forth in
a separate written agreement. Seller and Purchaser agree that if
any other
claims for brokerage commissions are ever made against Seller or
Purchaser in
connection with this transaction, all claims shall be handled
and paid by the
party whose actions or alleged commitments form the basis of
such claim. Seller
agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from any Losses
paid or incurred
by Purchaser by reason of any claim to any broker's, finder's,
or other fee in
connection with this transaction by any party claiming by,
through, or under
Seller. Except as provided in the foregoing sentence, Purchaser
agrees to
indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any Losses paid or
incurred by Seller by
reason of any claim to any broker's, finder's, or other fee in
connection with
this transaction by any party claiming by, through, or under
Purchaser, which
obligation of each party shall survive the Closing.
22. RISK OF LOSS.
A. Condemnation and Casualty. If, prior to the Closing Date,
all
or any portion of the Property is taken by condemnation or
eminent domain, or is
the subject of a pending taking which has not been consummated,
or is destroyed
or damaged by fire or other casualty, Seller shall notify
Purchaser of such fact
promptly after Seller obtains knowledge thereof. If such
condemnation or
casualty is "Material" (defined below), Purchaser shall have the
option to
terminate this Agreement upon notice to Seller given not later
than fifteen (15)
days after receipt of Seller's notice, or the date of the
Closing, whichever is
earlier. If this Agreement is terminated, the Deposit shall be
returned to
Purchaser and thereafter neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have
any further
rights or obligations to the other hereunder except as otherwise
provided in
this Agreement. If this Agreement is not terminated, Seller
shall not be
obligated to repair any damage or destruction but: (x) Seller
shall assign,
without recourse, and turn over to Purchaser all of the
insurance proceeds or
condemnation proceeds, as applicable, net of any costs of
repairs and net of
reasonable collection costs (or, if such have not been awarded,
all of its
right, title and interest therein) payable with respect to such
fire or other
casualty or condemnation including any rent abatement insurance
for such
casualty or condemnation; and (y) the parties shall proceed to
Closing pursuant
to the terms hereof without abatement of the Purchase Price.
B. Condemnation Not Material. If the condemnation is not
Material, then the Closing shall occur without abatement of the
Purchase Price
and, after deducting Seller's reasonable costs and expenses
incurred in
collecting any award, Seller shall assign, without recourse, all
remaining
awards or any rights to collect awards to Purchaser on the date
of the Closing.
C. Casualty Not Material. If the Casualty is not Material,
then
the Closing shall occur without abatement of the Purchase Price
except for a
credit in the amount of the applicable deductible and Seller
shall not be
obligated to repair such damage or destruction and Seller shall
assign, without
recourse, and turn over to Purchaser all of the insurance
proceeds net of any
costs of repairs and net of reasonable collection costs (or, if
such have not
been awarded, all of its right, title and interest therein)
payable with respect
to such fire or such casualty including any rent abatement
insurance for such
casualty.
13
<PAGE>
D. Materiality. For purposes of this Section 22: (i) with
respect
to a taking by eminent domain, the term "MATERIAL" means any
taking whatsoever,
regardless of the amount of the award or the amount of the
Property taken,
excluding, however, any taking solely of subsurface rights or
takings for
utility easements or right of way easements, if the surface of
the Property,
after such taking, may be used in substantially the same manner
as though such
rights had not been taken or any taking which does not permit a
Tenant from
terminating the Lease affected by the taking; and (ii) with
respect to a
casualty, the term "MATERIAL" means any casualty such that the
cost of repair,
as reasonably estimated by Seller's engineer, is in excess of
10% of the
Purchase Price allocated to Property sustaining the casualty,
excluding,
however, any casualty which does not permit a Tenant from
terminating the Lease
affected by the casualty.
23. ASSIGNABILITY. Except as set forth in Section 34 below,
neither
Purchaser nor Seller may assign its respective obligations
hereunder without the
consent of the other; provided, however, that Purchaser shall
have the right to
assign its interest in this Agreement, in whole or part, without
Seller's
consent to a Delaware Statutory Trust, an affiliate entity or
any entity that is
owned, managed or controlled by Purchaser or its managing member
subject to the
following: (i) notice of such assignment is delivered to Seller;
and (ii)
Purchaser shall not be released from any liability under this
Agreement as a
result of any such assignment. No transfer or assignment by
Purchaser or Seller
in violation of the provisions hereof shall be valid or
enforceable.
24. NOTICES. Any notice to be given or to be served upon either
party
hereto in connection with this Agreement must be in writing and
shall be given
by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested), by
overnight express
delivery or facsimile (followed by hard copy by either of the
two preceding
methods of delivery) and shall be deemed to have been given upon
receipt. Such
notice shall be given the parties hereto at the addresses set
forth on the
signature page of this Agreement and be deemed delivered upon
delivery or on the
date when the receiving party first refuses to accept such
delivery. Either
party may at any time, by giving five (5) days written notice to
the other,
designate any other address in substitution of any of the
foregoing addresses to
which such notice shall be given and other parties to whom
copies of all notices
hereunder shall be sent.
25. BINDING EFFECT. Subject to the terms of Section 23 of
this
Agreement, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit
of the Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and
assigns.
26. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement represents the entire
agreement
between Seller and Purchaser with respect to the subject matter
hereof, and all
prior agreements between Seller and Purchaser with respect to
such subject
matter shall have no further force or effect, including, without
limitation, any
proposal letters.
27. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, and
construed in
accordance with, the laws of the Subject State, without giving
effect to
principals of conflicts of law.
28. MODIFICATION. This Agreement may only be modified or
otherwise
amended by a written instrument executed by duly authorized
representatives of
Seller and Purchaser.
29. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.
In the
event this Agreement is not accepted by Seller on or before the
Expiration Date
of the Offer, and a copy thereof delivered to Purchaser, then
this Agreement
shall be null and void, and all offers set forth herein shall be
deemed
withdrawn.
14
<PAGE>
30. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or
more
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, and
all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
31. FACSIMILE. A facsimile copy of this Agreement and any
signatures
thereon will be considered for all purposes as originals.
32. INDEPENDENT COUNSEL AND INTERPRETATION. Each party
acknowledges that
its legal counsel participated in the preparation and drafting
of this
Agreement, and that each has been or has had the opportunity to
be represented
by counsel of its own choice throughout all negotiations which
preceded the
execution of this Agreement, and that they have executed this
Agreement with the
consent and upon the advice of said counsel. Accordingly, it is
agreed that any
legal rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to
be resolved
against the drafting party shall not apply to the interpretation
of this
Agreement or any addenda, amendments or exhibits thereto to
favor any party
against the other.
33. BUSINESS DAYS. All references to "business days" contained
in this
Agreement are references to normal working business days, i.e.,
Monday through
Friday of each calendar week, exclusive of federal and national
bank holidays.
If any event hereunder is to occur, or a time period is to
expire, on a date
which is not a business day, such event will occur or time
period shall expire
on the next succeeding business day.
34. 1031 EXCHANGE. The parties acknowledge that each may be
consummating
the transaction as part of a deferred tax-free exchange
("EXCHANGE") pursuant to
Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "CODE").
Therefore, either party
may assign its right, but not its obligations, to a qualified
third party
intermediary. Each party agrees to cooperate with the other in
connection with
such tax deferred exchange; provided, however, that in no event
will: (i) Seller
be obligated to (a) take title to any relinquished property that
Purchaser
desires to relinquish, or (b) act as a qualified intermediary;
(ii) either party
incur any obligation, indebtedness, liability, cost or expense
as a result of
cooperating with the other to effect such exchange.
EACH PARTY HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS AND WILL BE SOLELY
RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLIANCE WITH ALL LAWS, RULES AND
REGULATIONS
RELATED TO ITS EXCHANGE, IF ANY. FURTHER, A PARTY CAUSING AN
EXCHANGE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NEITHER THE NON-EXCHANGING PARTY NOR
ANY
OF ITS AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES OR AFFILIATES HAS ADVISED THE
EXCHANGING PARTY, AND NO SUCH PERSON OR ENTITY HAS ANY
OBLIGATION OR
DUTY TO ADVISE THE EXCHANGING PARTY, WITH RESPECT TO WHETHER
THE
TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT COMPLIES WITH THE
LAWS,
RULES AND REGULATIONS APPLICABLE TO THE EXCHANGE. FURTHER,
EACH
PARTY REPRESENTS, WARRANTS AND ACKNOWLEDGES TO THE OTHER THAT IT
HAS
RELIED UPON ITS OWN TAX AND LEGAL COUNSEL IN DETERMINING
COMPLIANCE
WITH ALL LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS APPLICABLE TO ITS EXCHANGE,
IF
ANY. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION WILL SURVIVE THE CLOSING
OR
TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
35. CONTEMPORANEOUS CLOSING OF SEPARATE AGREEMENT. Purchaser and
Captec
Franchise Capital Partners L.P. IV, a Delaware limited
partnership (a related
entity of Seller) ("RELATED SELLER") are parties to a separate
Sale Agreement
dated on or about the Effective Date (the "SEPARATE AGREEMENT")
pursuant to
which Related Seller has agreed to sell, and Purchaser has
agreed to buy twelve
(12) parcels of real property. As a condition to the parties'
obligation to
consummate the sale and purchase of the
15
<PAGE>
Property under this Agreement, the closing contemplated under
the Separate
Agreement must occur contemporaneously with the Closing under
this Agreement.
