Within ten (10) days after the Inspection Commencement Date, Sellers will deliver to Buyer a copy of the Partnership's most recent title insurance policy with respect to the Real Property (the "EXISTING TITLE POLICY"), and Buyer, at Buyer's sole cost and expense, will cause the Title Agent to deliver to Buyer a Title Commitment (with a copy to Sellers) in an amount equal to the Purchase Price, with such affirmative assurances and endorsements as reasonably may be obtainable and requested by Buyer, and having an effective date subsequent to the Agreement Date.

Within five (5) days of Buyer's receipt of the Title Commitment and Survey (but in any event not later than three (3) days prior to the Inspection Termination Date), Buyer will notify Sellers in writing (a "TITLE DEFECT NOTICE") of any title and/or survey defect(s) (the "TITLE DEFECTS") Buyer desires Sellers to cure. Sellers, at its sole option, may attempt to cure the Title Defects identified in the Title Defect Notice prior to the Inspection Termination Date (the "CURE PERIOD"), or Sellers may elect not to cure such Title Defects; provided, however, if the Title Commitment reveals the existence of a mortgage, lien, monetary judgment, security interest, past due tax or assessment or other similar encumbrance of a monetary nature against the Real Property (a "MONETARY LIEN" [Existing Loan is excluded from this definition if Buyer elects to -9- maintain Existing Loan]), then Sellers shall pay any amount due in satisfaction of each such Monetary Lien. If one or more Monetary Liens have not been satisfied before the Closing Date, then Buyer and Escrow Agent may, at Buyer's option, satisfy such Monetary Liens at Closing from the proceeds of the Purchase Price. If Sellers elect not, or are unable, to cure such Title Defects during the Cure Period, Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement, by written notice delivered to Sellers within three (3) days after Sellers have advised Buyer that they elect not, or are unable to cure, such Title Defects, and thereafter (i) this Agreement will be null and void and the parties hereto will have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except obligations of Sellers and Buyer hereunder that expressly survive any such termination, and (ii) the Deposit and accrued interest earned thereon shall be returned to Buyer. The Title Commitment and Survey approved by Buyer (revised, if applicable, to reflect Sellers' cure or removal of Title Defects as aforesaid), or, if Buyer neither approves title nor timely terminates this Agreement pursuant to SECTION 8.4(A), title shown by the Title Commitment and Survey as existing on the Inspection Termination Date, will constitute the approved title (the "APPROVED TITLE"). 4.2 CLOSING COMMITMENT. At Closing, Buyer will cause the Title Agent to issue to Buyer a "marked up" duplicate original of, the Title Commitment (the "CLOSING COMMITMENT") reflecting that all requirements of the Title Commitment have been fulfilled or waived, eliminating the "gap exception" and extending the effective date of coverage through delivery of the Assignment Agreement to Buyer. 4.3 SURVEY. Buyer hereby acknowledges that Buyer has received the Existing Survey. Prior to the Inspection Termination Date Buyer, at its expense, will cause the Surveyor to prepare and deliver to Buyer and Sellers a current survey of the Real Property (the "SURVEY"). The Survey will conform to the Minimum Technical Standards for Land Surveying promulgated pursuant to Section 472.027, Florida Statutes, and will show and describe the exterior boundaries and corner markers or monuments of the Land, the size and location of the improvements, any encroachments, easements, rights-of-way or other conditions to which the Land is subject, matters for which exception is made in Schedule B, Section 2 of the Title Commitment which can be physically located by survey, and the legal description and area of the Real Property.

On or before the sixtieth (60th) day after the Closing Date, Sellers and Buyer will complete the calculation of any sums not adjusted at Closing (other than taxes and CAM Charges), and the party from whom any net payment is due will promptly remit the sum due in immediately available funds. Promptly after the actual ad valorem real property taxes due for the year of Closing are determinable, any estimated tax proration made at Closing will be reprorated as set forth above. Further, promptly after the final -29- accounting has been made with respect to actual CAM Charges for the year in which Closing occurs has been completed, if the total CAM Charges due from Tenants exceeds the amount actually collected from Tenants for such year, Buyer will make a diligent good faith to collect from each Tenant the amount of such excess payable pursuant to its Lease, and promptly upon receipt thereof will remit to Sellers the pro rata share of each "catch up" payment.

The Sellers shall receive a credit for the amount, if any, by which the net worth of Partnership reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet exceeds zero. (h) Buyer shall receive a credit of $120,000 with respect to the termination of the Wolfgang Puck Express ("Puck") lease (if the Partnership has not negotiated a lease termination with respect to the Puck lease prior to the Closing Buyer shall cause all rights with respect to payments under the Puck lease to be assigned to Sellers and shall cooperate with Sellers, at no cost or expense to Buyer, with respect to Seller's collection efforts with respect to Puck lease).

(i) POST-CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS. Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing, Sellers and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate in determining and making post-closing adjustments. If a dispute arises regarding the post-closing adjustments identified in such 120 day period (it being understood and agreed that such dispute shall not extend the 120-day period under the immediately preceding sentence), the Buyer and Sellers shall promptly and jointly engage one of the "Big 4" accounting firms to determine the disputed post-closing adjustment(s). The conclusion of said accounting firm with respect to the disputed matter shall be conclusive and binding on the parties absent manifest error. Each of the Buyer and Sellers shall pay one-half of the cost of the services of the accounting firm.
