ARTICLE II

TITLE AND SURVEY

2.1           Title Commitment.  As soon after the Effective Date as reasonably practicable through the use of good faith efforts by Seller, Seller shall cause the Title Company to deliver to Purchaser, at Seller’s expense, (a) a title commitment (“Commitment”) for an owner’s policy of title insurance, on the standard form promulgated by the Texas State Board of Insurance, issued by the Title Company in the amount of the Purchase Price, and (b) legible copies of all instruments referenced in Schedule B and Schedule C of the Commitment.

2.3           Review of Commitment and Survey.  Purchaser shall have fifteen (15) days (the “Title Review Period”) after the receipt of the last of the Commitment, legible copies of all instruments referred to in Schedule B and Schedule C thereof, and the Survey to notify Seller in writing of such objections as

2




Purchaser may have to anything contained in the Commitment or the Survey; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not have the right to object to any Permitted Exceptions described in Section 2.5 below.  If Purchaser fails to object in writing to any item contained in the Commitment or the Survey during the Title Review Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to such item, and such item shall thereafter be deemed a Permitted Exception.  In the event that Purchaser objects to any item contained in the Commitment or the Survey within the Title Review Period (such items being herein referred to as “Title Defects”), Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) days following the date of Purchaser’s notice of such Title Defects (the “Cure Period”) that either (a) the Title Defects have been, or will be at or prior to Closing, removed from the Commitment or the Survey, as the case may be, or (b) Seller has failed to arrange to have the Title Defects removed. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever to expend or agree to expend any funds, to undertake or agree to undertake any obligations or otherwise to cure or agree to cure any title or survey objections, and Seller shall not be deemed to have any obligation to cure unless Seller expressly undertakes such an obligation by written notice to or written agreement with Purchaser given or entered into on or prior to the expiration of the Cure Period; provided, however, that Seller shall pay or discharge any lien or encumbrance arising after the date hereof and voluntarily created or assumed by Seller and not created by or resulting from the acts of Purchaser or other parties not related to Seller.

2.4           Failure to Cure Title Defects.  If upon the expiration of the Cure Period Seller has not notified Purchaser that Seller has arranged to have the Title Defects removed, then Purchaser may elect (which election must be made in writing within ten (10) days following expiration of the Cure Period) either:  (a) to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser as Purchaser’s sole remedy hereunder; or (b) to take title as it then is.  If Purchaser does not, within ten (10) days after the expiration of the Cure Period, send written notice to Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (a) of the preceding sentence, then: (x)  Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to take title subject to any and all Title Defects, without any reduction in the Purchase Price; (y) all Title Defects not removed from the Commitment or the Survey will thenceforth be deemed Permitted Exceptions; and (z) this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

2.5           Other Permitted Exceptions.  In addition to those matters shown in the Commitment and the Survey which become Permitted Exceptions pursuant to Section 2.4 above, the following shall also be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions: (a) the Leases; (b) taxes and standby fees for the year in which Closing occurs;  (c) liens and encumbrances arising after the date hereof to which Purchaser consents in writing; and (d) any liens or encumbrances of a definite or ascertainable amount, provided that Seller causes such liens or encumbrances to be insured around such that same do not appear as an exception in the owner’s title insurance policy issued to Purchaser pursuant to the Commitment.

2.6           Owner Title Policy.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.4, on the Closing Date Seller shall cause the Title Company to issue an owner’s title insurance policy at Seller’s cost insuring fee simple title in Purchaser as of the Closing Date, in accordance with the Commitment, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions; provided, however, that Seller shall have no obligation to pay anything other than the basic premium for such title insurance policy.  If Purchaser desires to obtain a modification of the “survey exception” or other modification or endorsement, same shall be at the sole expense of Purchaser.

2.7           Expiration of Inspection Period.  It is the intent of the parties that Purchaser’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.4(a) shall expire upon the expiration of the Inspection Period, notwithstanding that the Title Review Period, the Cure Period or any election period may extend beyond the expiration of the Inspection Period.  Accordingly, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Purchaser has not terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.4(a) prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, then Purchaser shall no longer have any right to terminate this Agreement under Section 2.4(a), and in such event Purchaser shall be bound to accept title to the Property

3




without any reduction in the Purchase Price and with the Title Defects not removed from the Commitment being deemed Permitted Exceptions; provided, however, that Purchaser may, after expiration of the Inspection Period, object to New Title Defects as set forth in Section 2.8 below.

2.8           New Title Defects.  In the event that, after the expiration of the Inspection Period and prior to Closing, a revision of Schedule B to the Title Commitment or the Survey reveals an adverse matter objectionable to Purchaser that was not disclosed to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period and is not a Permitted Exception (a “New Title Defect”), Purchaser shall have ten (10) days after such matter is disclosed to Purchaser to send written notice to Seller of such New Title Defect (it being agreed that if Purchaser fails to object to the New Title Defect within such ten (10) day period, then such New Title Defect shall thereafter be deemed a Permitted Exception).  Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) days following the date of Purchaser’s notice of such New Title Defect (the “New Title Defect Cure Period”) that either (a) the New Title Defect has been, or will be at or prior to Closing, removed from the Commitment or the Survey, as the case may be, or (b) Seller has failed to arrange to have the New Title Defect removed.  If, upon the expiration of the New Title Defect Cure Period, Seller has not notified Purchaser that Seller has arranged to have the New Title Defect removed, then Purchaser may elect (which election must be made in writing within five (5) days following expiration of the New Title Defect Cure Period) either:  (i) to terminate this Agreement as Purchaser’s sole remedy hereunder (in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser); or (ii) to take title subject to the Permitted Exceptions and the New Title Defect.  If Purchaser does not, within five (5) days after the expiration of the New Title Defect Cure Period, send written notice to Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, then (x) Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to take title subject to the Permitted Exceptions and the New Title Defect without any reduction in the Purchase Price; (y) the New Title Defect will thenceforth be deemed a Permitted Exception; and (z) this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

ARTICLE III

INSPECTION PERIOD

3.1           Property Documents.  As soon after the Effective Date as reasonably practicable through the use of good faith efforts by Seller, Seller shall deliver or make available to Purchaser at the Property or at Seller’s office the documents described on Exhibit B and Exhibit B-1 (the “Property Documents”) attached hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes.  Purchaser shall, if requested by Seller, execute instruments acknowledging receipt of the Property Documents or any other document delivered or made available to Purchaser in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby.  During the Inspection Period (as hereinafter defined), Purchaser may inspect the Property Documents during normal business hours and may photocopy same at Purchaser’s expense.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Seller shall not be obligated to deliver to Purchaser any report described in Exhibit B if the terms of such report restrict Seller from doing so.  With respect to any environmental report or other report described in Exhibit B which Seller delivers to Purchaser, Purchaser understands and agrees that (a) such report shall be delivered to Purchaser for general information purposes only, (b) Purchaser shall not have any right to rely on any report received from Seller and will not rely thereon, but rather will rely on inspections and reports performed by or on behalf of Purchaser, and (c) Seller shall have absolutely no liability for any inaccuracy in or omission from any report which it delivers to Purchaser.

3.2           Right of Inspection.  During the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending at 5 p.m., Dallas, Texas time, on the forty-fifth (45th) day thereafter (the “Inspection Period”), Purchaser and its representatives (including Purchaser’s architects, engineers and consultants) shall have the right to examine the Property Documents and to make a physical inspection of the Property (including the right to conduct such soil, engineering, environmental, hazardous or toxic material, noise pollution, seismic or

4




other physical test, study or investigation as Purchaser may desire).  In this regard, Purchaser and its authorized agents and representatives shall be entitled to enter upon the Property at all reasonable times during the Inspection Period, upon reasonable prior oral or written notice to Seller and while accompanied by a representative of Seller, subject to the rights of tenants of the Property.  All inspections shall occur at reasonable times agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser and shall be conducted so as not to unreasonably interfere with use of the Property by Seller or tenants of the Property.  Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller and the Property harmless of and from any and all losses, liabilities, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of court), damages, liens, claims (including, without limitation, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens or claims of liens), actions and causes of actions arising from or relating to Purchaser (or Purchaser’s agents, employees or representatives) entering upon the Property to test, study, investigate or inspect the same or any part thereof, whether pursuant to this Section 3.2 or otherwise, except to the extent arising solely from the negligence of Seller.  The foregoing indemnity of Purchaser shall expressly survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

3.3           Right of Termination.  Seller agrees that in the event Purchaser determines, in its sole discretion, that the Property is not suitable for its purposes, then Purchaser shall have the right (“Purchaser’s Termination Right”) to terminate this Agreement.  Purchaser’s Termination Right shall be exercisable only by sending written notice of termination (the “Notice of Termination”) to Seller prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period.  In the event that Purchaser timely exercises Purchaser’s Termination Right, this Agreement shall terminate and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.  If Purchaser fails to send Seller a Notice of Termination prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the Property and the Property Documents in all respects and Purchaser’s Termination Right shall automatically and irrevocably expire.

3.4           Payment of Certain Expenses Upon Termination.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that Purchaser exercises Purchaser’s Termination Right, Purchaser shall be responsible for payment of any escrow costs charged by the Title Company in connection with this Agreement.

ARTICLE IV

(c)           deliver to Seller an Agreement Regarding Disclaimers in the form of Exhibit I attached hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes executed by Purchaser and counsel for Purchaser;

4.4           Prorations.  The following adjustments to the Purchase Price paid hereunder shall be made between Seller and Purchaser and shall be prorated (as applicable) on a per diem basis as if Purchaser owned the Property for the entire day on the Closing Date:

(a)           All real estate taxes and installments of special assessments due and payable in the calendar year of Closing.  All other installments of special assessments not yet due and payable shall be paid by Purchaser.  If at the time of Closing the tax rate or the assessed valuation for the current year

6




has not yet been fixed, taxes shall be prorated based upon the tax rate and the assessed valuation established for the previous tax year; provided, however, that Seller and Purchaser agree that to the extent the actual taxes for the current year differ from the amount so apportioned at Closing, the parties hereto will make all necessary adjustments by appropriate payments between themselves following the Closing, and this provision shall survive Closing.

(b)           Current rents, advance rentals (but only to the extent actually received by Seller) and other income from the Property shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at Closing based upon such amounts actually collected by Seller as of the Closing Date.  Rent which is unpaid or delinquent as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated, but such unpaid or delinquent rent collected after the Closing Date shall be delivered as follows: (i) if Seller collects any unpaid or delinquent rent after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser any such rent relating to the Closing Date and any period thereafter within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof, and (ii) if Purchaser collects any unpaid or delinquent rent after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller any such rent relating to the period prior to the Closing Date within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof.  Seller and Purchaser agree that (A) all rent received by Seller after the Closing Date shall be applied first to delinquent rentals, if any, in the order of their maturity, and then to current rentals, and (B) all rent received by Purchaser after the Closing Date shall be applied first to current rentals and then to delinquent rentals, if any, in inverse order of maturity.  Purchaser will make a good faith effort after Closing to collect all rents (including without limitation the Pass Through Expenses and percentage rents described in Section 4.4(c) below) in the usual course of Purchaser’s operation of the Property, but Purchaser will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or incur any expense to collect delinquent rents.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Seller shall not be required to prorate any amounts collected by Seller after Closing from former tenants of the Property, it being understood and agreed that Seller may retain all amounts that Seller recovers from such former tenants.

(c)           With respect to additional rent attributable to insurance, taxes, common area maintenance and other operating expenses which are passed through to tenants under the Leases (the “Pass Through Expenses”) and as of the Closing Date are unbilled or billed but not yet collected, Purchaser shall, upon collection of such Pass Through Expenses, remit to Seller an amount equal to that portion of Pass Through Expenses which accrued prior to the Closing Date.  With respect to Pass Through Expenses which have not been billed to tenants as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall bill each tenant for same in accordance with each such tenant’s Lease.  With respect to percentage rents based upon gross sales or other income generated by the business of a tenant located on the Property during a specified period of time (the “Applicable Period”), Purchaser shall, upon collection of such percentage rent, remit to Seller an amount equal to the product of the percentage rent so collected multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days which have elapsed in the Applicable Period prior to the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Applicable Period.

(d)           Charges under service agreements, utility charges for which Seller is liable, and other operating expenses of the Property shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at Closing.

(e)           Security deposits shall, at Seller’s option, either be transferred or credited to Purchaser at Closing.  Refundable cash or other refundable deposits posted with utility companies or other entities in connection with the Property shall, at Sellers’ option, either be assigned to Purchaser and credited to Seller at Closing, or Seller shall be entitled to receive and retain such refundable cash and deposits.

(f)            Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of (i) all Tenant Inducement Costs (as hereinafter defined) and leasing commissions which become due and payable (whether before or after Closing) (A) as a result of any renewals or expansions of existing Leases which occur between the

7




Effective Date of this Agreement and the Closing Date and that are either approved or deemed approved by Purchaser, and (B) under any new Leases (including any amendments of existing Leases) entered into between the Effective Date of this Agreement and the Closing Date which have been approved (or deemed approved) by Purchaser; and (ii) all Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions which become due and payable from and after the Closing Date.  If as of the Closing Date Seller shall have paid any Tenant Inducement Costs or leasing commissions for which Purchaser is responsible pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller therefor at Closing.  Seller shall supply invoices and statements for all such Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions to Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date.  For purposes hereof, the term “Tenant Inducement Costs” shall mean any out-of-pocket payments required under a Lease to be paid by the landlord thereunder to or for the benefit of the tenant thereunder which is in the nature of a tenant inducement, including specifically, without limitation, tenant improvement costs, lease buyout costs, and moving, design, refurbishment and club membership allowances.  The term “Tenant Inducement Costs” shall not include loss of income resulting from any free rental period, it being agreed that Seller shall bear the loss resulting from any free rental period until the Closing Date and that Purchaser shall bear such loss from and after the Closing Date.

(g)           The Personal Property is included in this sale, without further charge, except that Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of any and all sales or similar taxes payable in connection with the Personal Property which is to be transferred to Purchaser under this Agreement and Purchaser shall execute and deliver any tax returns required of it in connection therewith, said obligations of Purchaser to survive Closing.

(h)           All prorations described in this Section 4.4 shall be effected by increasing or decreasing, as appropriate, the amount of cash to be paid by Purchaser to Seller at Closing.  Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate to produce prior to Closing a schedule of prorations and closing costs that is as complete and accurate as reasonably possible (the “Closing Statement”).  If any of the aforesaid prorations cannot be calculated accurately on the Closing Date, then they shall be estimated to the extent possible as of the Closing and calculated as soon after Closing as is feasible.  All adjustments to initial estimated prorations shall be made by the parties with due diligence and cooperation within sixty (60) days following Closing, or such later time as may be required to obtain necessary information for proration, by prompt cash payment to the party yielding a net credit from such prorations from the other party; provided, however, that the provisions of this paragraph shall survive Closing until March 31, 2007, and after such date neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any further rights or obligations under this Section 4.4.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the proration of taxes described in Section 4.4(a) above shall be deemed final if no adjustment thereto is requested within one (1) year after Closing.

4.5           Closing Costs.  Seller shall pay (a) the fees of any counsel representing it in connection with this transaction; (b) the basic premium for the Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance to be issued to Purchaser by the Title Company at Closing (specifically excluding the additional premium chargeable for modification of the survey exception, which deletion expense shall be borne by Purchaser); (c) the cost of the Survey; (d) the fees for recording the Deed; and (e) one-half (1/2) of any escrow fee which may be charged by the Title Company.  Purchaser shall pay (w) the fees of any counsel representing Purchaser in connection with this transaction; (x) the additional premium chargeable for modification of the survey exception, if such modification is desired by Purchaser; (y) any transfer tax, documentary stamp tax, sales tax or similar tax which becomes payable by reason of the transfer of the Property or any component thereof; and (z) one-half (1/2) of any escrow fees charged by the Title Company.  All other costs and expenses incident to this transaction and the closing thereof shall be paid by the party incurring same.

4.6           Delivery of Documents.  Immediately after Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser all books and records of account, contracts, leases and leasing correspondence, receipts for deposits, unpaid bills and other papers or documents which pertain to the operation of the Property, together with all

8




advertising materials, booklets, keys and other items, if any, used in the operation of the Property.  Seller makes no representations regarding the existence or adequacy of such documents or items for use in management or operation of the Property.  The foregoing shall not include the separate books, records, correspondence and other documentation of Seller located at its offices, nor shall it include any computer software or computer programs used by the manager of the Property or Seller in connection with the Property, it being understood and agreed that the foregoing items are not part of the “Property” to be conveyed to Purchaser hereunder.  After the Closing, Seller shall have the right to inspect the books and records of the Property to verify that Purchaser is remitting to Seller all amounts to be remitted to Seller according to the terms of this Agreement, and for any other purpose related to Seller’s prior ownership of the Property, and this provision shall survive Closing.

4.7           Preservation of Right to Contest.  Seller reserves the right to contest after Closing taxes and assessments with respect to the Property for years prior to 2007 and interest or penalties pertaining thereto, to the extent same are applicable to periods prior to Closing, and Seller shall be entitled to any refunds made with respect to such contested taxes.  All taxes imposed because of a change of use or ownership of the Property after or in connection with the Closing shall be for the account of Purchaser, and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless of, from and against any and all costs, damages, expenses, claims, or liability arising from the imposition of any such taxes.  The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing.

4.8           Condition Precedent.  As a condition precedent to the Closing, the Centex Lease (as hereinafter defined), subject to the Sublease Agreement dated March 31, 2005 by and between Centex Homes, a Nevada general partnership, as Sublessor, and Purchaser, as Sublessee, shall be in full force and effect according to its terms.  If this condition precedent is not met as of Closing, either party may terminate this Agreement, whereupon Purchaser shall receive a refund of the Earnest Money and neither party shall be liable one to the other, except for any obligations that expressly survive the termination hereof.

5.2           Covenants of Seller.  Seller hereby covenants as follows:

(a)           Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall maintain the Property in its present condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted;

(b)           Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall maintain all casualty, liability and hazard insurance currently in force with respect to the Property; and

(c)           Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall lease, operate, manage and enter into contracts with respect to the Property, in the same manner done by Seller prior to the date hereof, maintaining present services and sufficient supplies and equipment for the operation and maintenance of the Property in the same manner as prior to the date hereof; provided, however, that Seller shall not enter into any service contract that cannot be terminated within thirty (30) days notice.

(d)           A copy of each Lease presented to Seller between the Effective Date and the Closing Date for its approval and execution will be submitted to Purchaser prior to execution by Seller.  Purchaser agrees to notify Seller in writing within ten (10) business days after its receipt of each such Lease of either its approval or disapproval thereof, including all Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions to be incurred in connection therewith.  In the event Purchaser informs Seller that Purchaser does not approve any such Lease, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, Seller shall have the option to cancel this Agreement by written notice thereof to Purchaser within five (5) business days after Seller’s receipt of written notice of Purchaser’s disapproval of any such Lease, and upon refund and payment of the Earnest Money to Purchaser, neither party shall have any further liability or obligation hereunder.  In the event Purchaser fails to notify Seller in writing of its approval or disapproval of any such Lease within the five (5) day time period for such purpose set forth above, such failure shall be deemed the approval by Purchaser of such Lease.  At Closing, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for any Tenant Inducement Costs or leasing commissions incurred by Seller pursuant to a new Lease approved (or deemed approved) by Purchaser.

5.3           Actual Knowledge of Seller.  All references in this Agreement to the “actual knowledge” of Seller shall refer only to the actual knowledge of the Designated Employee (as hereinafter defined) of the Dallas, Texas office of Seller and shall not be construed to refer to the knowledge of any other officer, agent or employee of Seller or any affiliate of Seller or to impose upon such Designated Employee any

10




duty to investigate the matter to which such actual knowledge, or the absence thereof, pertains.  As used herein, the term “Designated Employee” shall refer to Sam Gillespie, an employee of Seller who has responsibility for overseeing the management of the Property, among other assets of Seller.  In no event shall any Designated Employee have any personal liability to Purchaser for any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by Seller in this Agreement, and the provisions contained in this Section 5.3 shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

5.4           Tenant Estoppels.

(a)           Reference is made to that certain Office Lease Agreement dated August 1, 2000 with Centex Homes, a Nevada general partnership (“Centex”), as tenant, in respect of the Property, as same may have been amended (the “Centex Lease”).  Seller shall request that Centex execute an estoppel certificate in the form of Exhibit J-1 attached hereto with respect to the Centex Lease.  For purposes hereof, the term “Centex Homes Estoppel Certificate” shall refer to an estoppel certificate executed by Centex in substantially the form of Exhibit J-1attached hereto (or as otherwise approved by Purchaser) and dated not earlier than the twentieth (20th) day prior to the Closing Date.   Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, it shall be a condition precedent (the “Centex Homes Estoppel Condition”) to the obligation of Purchaser to consummate the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement that Seller deliver to Purchaser the Centex Homes Estoppel Certificate on or before the Closing Date; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not unreasonably withhold its approval to non-material modifications by Centex to the Centex Homes Estoppel Certificate.  In the event that Seller is unable to obtain the Centex Homes Estoppel Certificate, Seller shall not be in default under this Agreement; however, in such event Purchaser shall have the option either to (i) waive receipt of the Centex Homes Estoppel Certificate, or (ii) terminate this Agreement as its sole recourse, in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.  Purchaser shall make its election pursuant to the preceding sentence by sending written notice to Seller upon the earlier of (A) five (5) days after receiving notice from Seller that Seller will be unable to obtain the Centex Homes Estoppel Certificate, or (B) the date of Closing.  If Purchaser fails to send timely notice of its election, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement as its sole recourse and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.

(b)           Reference is made to that certain Lease Agreement dated May 10, 2004 with Soonu J. Godiwalla d/b/a Northpoint Fresh Market Deli (“Deli Tenant”), as tenant, in respect of the Property, as same may have been amended (the “Fresh Market Deli Lease”).  Seller shall request that Deli Tenant execute an estoppel certificate in the form of Exhibit J-2 attached hereto with respect to the Deli Lease.  For purposes hereof, the term “Fresh Market Deli Estoppel Certificate” shall refer to an estoppel certificate executed by Deli Tenant in substantially the form of Exhibit J-2 attached hereto dated prior to Closing; provided, however, that the Fresh Markt Deli Estoppel Certificate shall not fail to qualify hereunder if the Deli Tenant inserts or includes phrases such as “to Tenant’s knowledge” or “in all material respects” or other similar knowledge or materiality qualification(s) to any of the statements contained in the Fresh Market Deli Estoppel Certificate.  If Seller is unable to obtain the Fresh Market Deli Estoppel Certificate prior to Closing, Seller may, at Seller’s option, deliver to Purchaser a certification from Seller in the form of Exhibit K attached hereto with respect to the Fresh Market Deli Lease (the “Seller Certification”).  In the event that Seller is unable to obtain the Fresh Market Deli Estoppel Certificate and is unwilling to provide the Seller Certification, then Purchaser shall have the option either to (i) waive receipt of the Fresh Market Deli Estoppel Certificate, or (ii) terminate this Agreement as its sole recourse, in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.  Purchaser shall make its election pursuant to the preceding sentence by sending written notice to Seller upon the earlier of (A) five (5) days after receiving notice from Seller that Seller will be unable to obtain the Fresh Market Deli Estoppel Certificate, or (B) the date of Closing.  If Purchaser fails to send timely notice of its election, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement as its sole

11




recourse and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.  If Seller elects to deliver the Seller Certification, the representations contained therein shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.5 below.

5.5           Survival.  It is the intent of Purchaser and Seller that the representations, warranties and covenants made by Seller in Section 5.1 of this Agreement or in the Seller Certification, if any (the “Seller Reps”) shall survive Closing for a period of one (1) year after the date of Closing.  Accordingly, Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any provision of law to the contrary, any action that may be brought under this Agreement by Purchaser against Seller for breach of any Seller Rep shall be forever barred unless Purchaser:  (a) delivers to Seller no later than one (1) year after the date of Closing a written notice of its claim setting forth in reasonable detail the factual basis for such claim and Purchaser’s good faith estimate of its damages arising out of such claim; and (b) files a complaint or petition against Seller alleging such claim in an appropriate state or federal court in Dallas County, Texas, no later than two (2) years after the date of Closing.  In no event shall Seller be liable after the date of Closing for its breach of any Seller Rep if such breach was actually known to Purchaser prior to Closing.

5.6           Modifications to Seller’s Updated Certificate.  Seller shall be allowed to make such modifications to Seller’s Updated Certificate as may be necessary to cause same to be accurate.  If such modifications disclose matters that (a) were not disclosed to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, and (b) have a material, adverse effect on the value of the Property, then Seller shall not be in default hereunder, but in such event Purchaser shall have the option either to (i) accept Seller’s Updated Certificate as modified, or (ii) terminate this Agreement as its sole recourse, in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.  Purchaser shall make its election pursuant to the preceding sentence by sending written notice to Seller upon the earlier of (A) five (5) days after receiving notice from Seller of Seller’s modifications to Seller’s Updated Certificate, or (B) the date of Closing. If Purchaser fails to send timely notice of its election, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected the option described in clause (ii) above.

ARTICLE VI

DEFAULT; REMEDIES

6.1           Default of Purchaser.  In the event Purchaser fails to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement for any reason except failure by Seller to perform hereunder or the permitted termination hereof by Purchaser or Seller in accordance with the express provisions hereof, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, to terminate this Agreement and recover the Earnest Money as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, in full satisfaction of claims against Purchaser hereunder.  Seller and Purchaser agree that Seller’s damages resulting from Purchaser’s default are difficult, if not impossible, to determine and that the Earnest Money is a fair estimate of those damages which has been agreed to in an effort to cause the amount of said damages to be certain.  In the event of Purchaser’s default and notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.1 to the contrary, Seller shall have all remedies available at law or in equity in the event Purchaser or any party related to or affiliated with Purchaser is asserting any claims or right to the Property that would otherwise delay or prevent Seller from having clear, indefeasible and marketable title to the Property.

6.2           Default of Seller.  In the event Seller fails to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement for any reason except failure by Purchaser to perform hereunder or the permitted termination hereof by Purchaser or Seller in accordance with the express provisions hereof, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by giving Seller timely written notice of such election prior to or at Closing, in which event Purchaser shall be entitled to either (a) receive the return of the Earnest Money (together with all

12




interest earned thereon), which return shall operate to terminate this Agreement and release Seller from any and all liability hereunder, or (b) enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligation to execute the documents required to convey the Property to Purchaser, it being understood and agreed that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller hereunder.  Purchaser expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event of Seller’s default hereunder.  Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and receive back the Earnest Money (together with all interest earned thereon) if Purchaser fails to file suit for specific performance against Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the county and state in which the Property is located, on or before thirty (30) days following the date upon which Closing was to have occurred.  The remedies set forth in this Section 6.2 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies available to Purchaser for Seller’s failure to close the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

6.3           Post-Closing Remedies.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 above, in the event that after the termination of this Agreement or after Closing, as the case may be, a party (the “Defaulting Party”) breaches an obligation hereunder which is expressly stated herein to survive the termination of this Agreement or Closing, as the case may be, the Defaulting Party shall be liable to the other party (the “Non-Defaulting Party”) for the actual damages incurred by the Non-Defaulting Party as a direct result of such breach.  In no event shall the Non-Defaulting Party be entitled to recover from the Defaulting Party any punitive, consequential or speculative damages.

ARTICLE VII

RISK OF LOSS

7.1           Minor Damage.  In the event of loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof (the “premises in question”) which is not “major” (as hereinafter defined), this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect provided Seller performs any necessary repairs or, at Seller’s option, reduces the cash portion of the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the cost of such repairs, Seller thereby retaining all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question.  In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs.

7.2           Major Damage.  In the event of a “major” loss or damage, either Seller or Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other party, in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.  If neither Seller nor Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) days after Seller sends Purchaser written notice of the occurrence of major loss or damage, then Seller and Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with Closing, in which event Seller shall, at Seller’s option, either (a) perform any necessary repairs, or (b) assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question.  In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs.  Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser.  For purposes of Sections 7.1 and 7.2, “major” loss or damage refers to the following:  (i) loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof such that the cost of repairing or restoring the premises in question to a condition substantially identical to that of the premises in question prior to the event of damage would be, in the certified opinion of a mutually acceptable architect, equal to or greater than ten percent (10%) of the

13




Purchase Price; and (ii) any loss due to a condemnation which permanently and materially impairs the current use of the Property.

7.3           Uniform Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act Not Applicable.  It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the provisions of Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 govern the rights of the parties in the event of damage to or condemnation of the Property and that the Uniform Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act (Section 5.007 of the Texas Property Code) not apply to this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

8.3           Waivers of Deceptive Trade Practices Act.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its assigns and successors, that the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices — Consumer Protection Act, Subchapter E of Chapter 17 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code (the “DTPA”), is not applicable to this transaction.  Accordingly, Purchaser’s rights and remedies with respect to this transaction, and with respect to all acts or practices of the other, past, present or future, in connection with this transaction, shall be governed by legal principles other than the DTPA.  In furtherance thereof, Purchaser agrees as follows:

(a)           Purchaser represents that it is a business consumer and that it seeks to acquire by purchase or lease the goods or services that are the subject of this Agreement for commercial or business use.  Purchaser further represents that it has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that enable it to evaluate the merits and risks of the business transaction that is the subject of this Agreement.  Purchaser also represents that it is not in a significantly disparate bargaining position in relation to Seller.

(b)           Purchaser represents that it has been represented by legal counsel in seeking or acquiring the goods or services that are the subject of this Agreement and that the transaction contemplated by this Agreement does not involve the purchase or lease of a family residence occupied or to be occupied as the residence of Purchaser.  Purchaser shall cause its legal counsel to sign this Agreement in the space provided below for the purpose of complying with Section 17.42(a)(3) of the DTPA.

(c)           Purchaser agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its assigns and successors, that all of its rights and remedies under the DTPA are WAIVED AND RELEASED, including specifically, without limitation, all rights and remedies resulting from or arising out of any and all acts or practices of Seller in connection with this transaction, whether such acts or practices occur before or after

15




the execution of this Agreement; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in accordance with Section 17.42 of the DTPA, Purchaser does not waive Section 17.555 of the DTPA.

8.4           Effect and Survival of Disclaimers.  Seller has informed Purchaser that the compensation to be paid to Seller for the Property has been decreased to take into account that the Property is being sold subject to the provisions of this Article VIII.  Seller and Purchaser agree that the provisions of this Article VIII shall survive Closing.

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS

9.1           Broker.  Seller and Purchaser represent each to the other that each has had no dealings with any broker, finder or other party concerning Purchaser’s purchase of the Property.  Seller and Purchaser each hereby agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from all loss, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by the other as a result of any claim arising out of the acts of the indemnifying party (or others on its behalf) for a commission, finder’s fee or similar compensation made by any broker, finder or any party who claims to have dealt with such party.  The foregoing representations and warranties contained in this Section shall survive the Closing.  The Texas Real Estate License Act requires written notice to Purchaser that it should have an attorney examine an abstract of title to the property being purchased or obtain a title insurance policy.  Notice to that effect is, therefore, hereby given to Purchaser.

9.2           ERISA.  Purchaser represents that Purchaser is not an employee benefit plan or a governmental plan or a party in interest of either such a plan, and that the funds being used to acquire the Property are not plan assets or subject to state laws regulating investments of and fiduciary obligations with respect to a governmental plan.  As used herein, the terms “employee benefit plan”, “party in interest”, “plan assets” and “governmental plan” shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in ERISA, and the term “ERISA” shall mean the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the regulations promulgated in connection therewith.  Upon the request of Seller, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller at Closing a certificate stating that the foregoing representations are true and correct and containing an agreement by Purchaser to indemnify Seller against any inaccuracy in such representations.  The foregoing covenants shall survive Closing.

9.3           Assignment.  Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement to anyone other than a Permitted Assignee (as hereinafter defined) without first obtaining Seller’s written approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld.  Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 9.3, Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement to a Permitted Assignee without the prior written consent of Seller.  In the event that Purchaser desires to assign its rights under this Agreement to a Permitted Assignee, Purchaser shall send written notice to Seller at least five (5) business days prior to the effective date of such assignment stating the name and, if applicable, the constituent persons or entities of the Permitted Assignee.  Such assignment shall not become effective until such Permitted Assignee executes an instrument reasonably satisfactory to Seller in form and substance whereby the Permitted Assignee expressly assumes each of the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement, including specifically, without limitation, all obligations concerning the Earnest Money.  No assignment shall release or otherwise relieve Purchaser from any obligations hereunder.  For purposes of this Section 9.3, the term “Permitted Assignee” shall mean (a) a corporation in which Medical Edge Healthcare Group, Inc. (or an Affiliate thereof) owns or controls a majority of the stock entitled to vote for directors, (b) a general partnership in which Medical Edge Healthcare Group, Inc. (or an Affiliate thereof) is a general partner owning a majority of the total partnership interests therein, or (c) a limited partnership in which Medical Edge Healthcare Group, Inc. (or an Affiliate thereof) is the sole general partner.  An “Affiliate” shall

16




mean with respect to Purchaser: (a) Purchaser’s partners, co-members and joint venturers, (b) each corporation or other entity that is a parent or subsidiary of Purchaser, (c) each corporation or other entity that is controlled by or under common control of a parent of Purchaser, or (d) an entity that is controlled by any one or more of the following persons:  a director, officer, employee or agent of Purchaser or Joe Panter or Jim Wopnford.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall not have the right to assign this Agreement to any assignee which, in the reasonable judgment of Seller, will cause the transaction contemplated hereby or any party thereto to violate the requirements of ERISA.  In order to enable Seller to make such determination, Purchaser shall cause to be delivered to Seller such information as is requested by Seller with respect to a proposed assignee and the constituent persons or entities of any proposed assignee, including specifically, without limitation, any pension or profit sharing plans related thereto.

9.4           Confidentiality. The information supplied to or made available to Purchaser by Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall not be released or disclosed to any other parties unless and until this transaction has closed without the prior written consent of Seller.  Seller shall not withhold its consent to disclosure of such information to Purchaser’s attorney or to any prospective lender.  In the event that this transaction is not closed for any reason, then (a) Purchaser shall refrain, and shall cause its agents, representatives and accountants to refrain, from disclosing all such information to any other party, (b) Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller any statements, documents, schedules, exhibits or other written information obtained from Seller in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated herein, and (c) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, the covenant set forth in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.  It is understood and agreed that, with respect to any provision of this Agreement which refers to the termination of this Agreement and the return of the Earnest Money to Purchaser, such Earnest Money shall not be returned to Purchaser unless and until Purchaser has fulfilled its obligation to return to Seller the materials described in clause (b) of the preceding sentence.  In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Purchaser or its agents or representatives of this Section 9.4, Seller shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Purchaser or its agents or representatives from disclosing, in whole or in part, such confidential information.  Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Seller from pursuing any other available remedy at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach.
