Unless Buyer delivers a notice to Seller to the contrary prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, on or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall terminate all of the Contracts (except for the Lease Agreement which upon execution and Closing hereunder shall be binding on Buyer) effective on the Closing Date. In the event that Buyer delivers a notice to Seller within such period identifying one (1) or more Contracts which Buyer wishes to assume (the "ASSUMED CONTRACTS"), Seller shall not terminate the Assumed Contracts, but shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, terminate all Contracts other than the Assumed Contracts effective as of the later of the Closing Date. 4.

The parties shall have until the end of the Inspection Period to execute the Lease Agreement and deliver such Lease Agreement to the Escrow Agent to be held in escrow until the Closing, such Lease Agreement to be effective upon the Closing hereunder. In the event the parties fail to execute the Lease Agreement prior to the end of the Inspection Period, the Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to the Buyer on or before the expiration of the Inspection Period, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate. In addition, in the event that Buyer terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 3(f) above, the Lease Agreement shall be null, void and of no force and effect. Upon such termination, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer in accordance with Section 6(d) and neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any further obligation or liability to the other hereunder, except as provided in Sections 3(b)(iii), 3(b)(iv), 3(c) and 7(c) hereof. 5. TITLE. (a) TITLE TO REAL PROPERTY. The Real Property is to be conveyed by the Deed (as hereinafter defined) running to Buyer or to Buyer's nominee provided Seller is given notice of such nominee at least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date. The Deed shall convey a good and clear, record and marketable title to the Real Property free from encumbrances except the following (herein referred to as the "PERMITTED ENCUMBRANCES"): (i) Provisions of building and zoning laws existing as of the date of this Agreement; (ii) Such real estate taxes for the then current fiscal year as are not due and payable on the Closing Date; (iii) Any liens for municipal betterments or special assessments assessed after the date of this Agreement; (iv) Rights of lessees, licensees or tenants in possession pursuant to the Lease Agreement; and (v) Any and all easements, agreements, restrictions and other matters of record which are Permitted Exceptions (as defined below). -8- (b) TITLE REVIEW. Buyer shall obtain an ALTA title insurance commitment (the "TITLE COMMITMENT") for the Real Property from a nationally recognized title insurance company (the "TITLE COMPANY"). Buyer may also, if it elects, have a survey made of the Real Property (the "SURVEY") and perform such other title examination with respect thereto as it may chose. Such Title Insurance Commitment, Survey and title examination shall be at Buyer's sole cost and expense. (c) TITLE OBJECTIONS; CURE OF TITLE OBJECTIONS. Buyer shall have until the end of the Inspection Period (the "TITLE EXAM DEADLINE") to review its Title Commitment and Survey and to notify Seller, in writing, of such objections as Buyer may have to anything contained in the Title Commitment or the Survey. Any item contained in the Title Commitment or any matter shown on the Survey to which Buyer does not object prior to the Title Exam Deadline shall be deemed a permitted exception (the "PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS"). In the event Buyer shall notify Seller of objections to title or to matters shown on the Survey prior to the Title Exam Deadline, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such objections. Within ten (10) days after receipt of Buyer's notice of objections, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing whether Seller elects to attempt to cure such objections. If Seller elects to attempt to cure, and provided that Buyer shall not have terminated this Agreement in accordance with Section 3(f) above, Seller shall have until the date of Closing to attempt to remove, satisfy or cure the same and for this purpose Seller shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing if additional time is required, but in no event shall the adjournment exceed sixty (60) days after the date for Closing set forth in Section 7 below. If Seller elects not to cure any objections specified in Buyer's notice, or if Seller is unable to effect a cure prior to the Closing (or any date to which the Closing has been adjourned), Buyer shall have the following options: (i) to accept a conveyance of the Real Property subject to the Permitted Exceptions, specifically including any matter objected to by Buyer which Seller is unwilling or unable to cure, and without reduction of the Purchase Price; or (ii) to terminate this Agreement by sending written notice thereof to Seller, and upon delivery of such notice of termination this Agreement shall terminate and the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, and thereafter neither party hereto shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except to the extent that any right, obligation or liability set forth herein expressly survives termination of this Agreement. If Seller notifies Buyer that Seller does not intend to attempt to cure any title objection; or if, having commenced attempts to cure any objection, Seller later notifies Buyer that Seller will be unable to effect a cure thereof; Buyer shall, within five (5) days after such notice has been given, notify Seller in writing whether Buyer shall elect to accept the conveyance under clause (i) or to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (ii) above. If Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement, then the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer in accordance with Section 6(d) as Buyer's sole and exclusive remedy hereunder at law or in equity, and neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any further obligation or liability to the other hereunder, except as provided in Section 3(b)(iii), 3(b)(iv), Section 3(c) and Section 7(c) hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Seller shall pay in full all voluntary monetary encumbrances placed on the Property by Seller on or before the Closing Date. -9- 6. REMEDIES. (a) SELLER'S REMEDIES. Other than the matters provided in Sections 3(c), this Section 6(a) and 7(c) hereof, in the event Buyer defaults in its obligation hereunder to purchase the Property, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy (except with respect to the matters provided in Sections 3(c) and 7(c) hereof), to terminate this Agreement by written notice thereof given to the Escrow Agent and Buyer and recover the Deposit as liquidated damages and not as penalty, in full satisfaction of claims against Buyer hereunder. Seller and Buyer agree that Seller's damages resulting from Buyer's default are difficult, if not impossible, to determine and that the Deposit is a fair estimate of those damages which has been agreed to in an effort to cause the amount of such damages to be certain. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Buyer takes any action to prevent or interfere with the Seller from exercising all of its rights and remedies hereunder, and Seller ultimately prevails against Buyer, then in addition to the right of Seller to receive the Deposit hereunder, Seller shall have the right to pursue any remedy available to Seller at law or in equity for such default and damages. (b) BUYER'S REMEDIES. In the event that Seller defaults in its obligations under this Agreement for any reason other than permitted termination of this Agreement by Seller or Buyer as herein expressly provided, Buyer shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, to either (a) terminate the Agreement and receive the return of the Deposit, which return shall operate to terminate this Agreement and release Seller from any and all liability hereunder, or (b) take any and all actions necessary to compel Seller's specific performance hereunder (it being acknowledged that damages at law would be an inadequate remedy). Buyer expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event of Seller's default hereunder. Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and receive back the Deposit if Buyer 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. Nothwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller takes any action to prevent or interfere with the Buyer from exercising all of its rights and remedies hereunder, and Buyer ultimately prevails against Seller, then in addition to the right of Buyer to receive the Deposit hereunder, Buyer shall have the right to pursue any remedy available to Buyer at law or in equity for such default and damages. (c) ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event either party hereto is required to employ an attorney in connection with claims by one party against the other arising from the operation of this Agreement, the non-prevailing party shall pay the prevailing party all reasonable fees and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with such claims. (d) DISPOSITION OF DEPOSIT. In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 3(f) above, the Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Deposit to the Buyer, together with the interest thereon. In the event that the Escrow Agent shall receive written notice of a termination of this Agreement by either Seller or Buyer (for reasons other than a termination pursuant to Section 3(f)), the Escrow Agent shall -10- promptly notify the non-terminating party of such notice of termination (the "ESCROW AGENT NOTICE"). The Escrow Agent is authorized and directed by Seller and Buyer to deliver the Deposit to the party identified in the Escrow Agent Notice as being entitled to receive the Deposit on or after the tenth day (the "DISBURSEMENT DATE") following the date on which the non-terminating party received the Escrow Agent Notice, unless the non-terminating party notifies the Escrow Agent, before the Disbursement Date, that the non-terminating party disputes the right of the terminating party to receive the Deposit. In such event, the Escrow Agent shall interplead the Deposit into a court of competent jurisdiction in Essex County, Massachusetts. All attorneys' fees and costs and the Escrow Agent's costs and expenses incurred in connection with such interpleader shall be assessed against the party that is not awarded the Deposit, or, if the Deposit is distributed in part to both parties, then in the inverse proportion of such distribution. 7.

Other than as stated in the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(c), Seller and Buyer each represent and warrant to the other that it has dealt with no person (other than the Broker) to whom a finder's fee or real estate brokerage commission is payable or would be payable in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, and each agrees to and does hereby agree to defend, indemnify and hold the other harmless against the -13- payment of any commission to any person or entity claiming by, through or under Seller or Buyer, as applicable. This indemnification shall extend to any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and litigation costs) arising as a result of such claims and shall survive the Closing. The Broker shall not be entitled to any monies or other recovery realized by Seller arising out of Buyer's default or arising out of Section 3(c). The Broker shall also not be entitled to any commission if Seller or Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with any provisions of this Agreement. (d) USE OF PURCHASE PRICE TO CLEAR TITLE. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to enable Seller to make conveyance as herein provided, Seller may, at the time of delivery of the Deed, use the Purchase Price, or any part thereof, to clear the title of any or all encumbrances or interests which are to be discharged, removed or eliminated by the terms hereof, provided the instruments required to clear title are either recorded simultaneously with the recording of the Deed or arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Buyer's title insurance company (including the delivery of a pay off letter from any institutional lienholder stating that its lien will be discharged upon receipt of a specified amount of money) for the subsequent recording are made no later than the Closing Date. (e) ACCEPTANCE OF DEED. The acceptance and recording of the Deed by Buyer or its nominee, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be full performance and discharge of every agreement and obligation herein contained or expressed on the part of Seller, except such as are set forth in any document required to be delivered by Seller pursuant to Section 7(b)(i) and except such as are by the terms hereof to be performed after the delivery and recording of the Deed or otherwise survive the Closing, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 3(b), 7(b) and 7(c). 8. CONDEMNATION. If, prior to Closing, any governmental authority or other entity having condemnation authority shall institute an eminent domain proceeding or take any steps preliminary thereto (including the giving of any direct or indirect notice of intent to institute such proceedings) with regard to a Material Portion of the Real Property, and the same is not dismissed prior to Closing, Buyer shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller (a) within ten (10) days following notice by Seller to Buyer of such condemnation, or (b) on the Closing Date, whichever occurs first. In the event Buyer does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding sentence, Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have elected to accept such condemnation and waives any right to terminate this Agreement as a result thereof. For purposes of this Section 8, a "MATERIAL PORTION" shall mean that portion of the Real Property which, if taken or condemned, would reduce the square footage of the Building or otherwise substantially and materially interfere with the current use of the Real Property by eliminating access or parking spaces which could not be otherwise replicated or permit the Seller to terminate, or reduce rent under, the Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any eminent domain proceeding is instituted (or notice of which shall be given) solely for the taking of any excess land, subsurface rights for utility easements or for any right-of-way easement, and the surface may, after such taking, be used in substantially the same manner as though such rights had not been taken and as contemplated by tenant under the Lease Agreement and so long as tenant (Seller) is willing to be bound by the Lease Agreement following such taking on notice of such taking, then Buyer shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement as to any part of the Real Property, but any award -14- resulting therefrom shall be the exclusive property of Buyer upon Closing. In the event Buyer or Seller elects to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8 or after such taking or notice thereof, Seller elects, in Seller's sole discretion, not to be bound by the Lease Agreement, then the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer in accordance with Section 6(d), and neither party to this Agreement shall thereafter have any further rights or obligations hereunder except as otherwise provided in Sections 3(b)(iii), 3(b)(iv), 3(c) and 7(c). If Buyer and Seller waive (or are deemed to have waived) the right to terminate this Agreement as a result of such a condemnation, despite such condemnation, Seller and Buyer shall close the transaction contemplated under this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof with no reduction in the Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign to Buyer at Closing all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to all proceeds resulting or to result from such condemnation. 9. CASUALTY. (a) RISK OF LOSS. Until Closing, Seller alone shall bear the risk of loss should there be damage to any of the Improvements by fire or other casualty (collectively, "CASUALTY"). If, prior to Closing, any of the Improvements shall be damaged by a Casualty, Seller shall deliver to Buyer written notice ("CASUALTY NOTICE") of such Casualty within three (3) business days after such Casualty. (b) MATERIAL DAMAGE. For the purposes of this Section 9(b), "MATERIAL DAMAGE" shall mean damage to the Improvements of such nature that the reasonable cost of restoring the same to their condition prior to the Casualty will, in Seller's reasonable determination, exceed ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price whether or not such damage is covered by insurance, or if after such casualty, Seller elects in Seller's sole discretion not to participate as tenant under the Lease Agreement. If, in Seller's reasonable determination, the Improvements have sustained Material Damage by a Casualty, Seller or Buyer may, at their option, and in the case of Buyer, within ten (10) days after receipt by Buyer of the Casualty Notice, either (i) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice thereof to the other party or (ii) waive its right of termination and proceed to close this transaction in accordance with the terms hereof (the "WAIVER OPTION"). Failure of either party to deliver written notice of termination, either in the Casualty Notice, in the case of Seller or within the ten (10) day period, in the case of Buyer, shall be conclusively deemed to be an election by such party of the Waiver Option. In the event is Agreement is terminated under this Section 9(b), the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer in accordance with Section 6(d) and neither party to this Agreement shall thereafter have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except as otherwise provided in Sections 3(b)(iii), 3(b)(iv), 3(c) and 7(c). If the parties elect the Waiver Option, then (i) Seller shall repair the Improvements to substantially their condition prior to the Casualty to the extent the damage caused by the Casualty can be repaired prior to Closing, and (ii) at Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer an amount equal to the deductible and the amount of any uninsured loss and assign to Buyer all of its rights in the resulting casualty insurance proceeds, but Seller may retain its rights in the resulting casualty insurance proceeds to the extent of the cost of any repairs to the Improvements performed by Seller prior to the Closing and a prorata share of the rental or business loss proceeds, if any. In the event Seller is to assign insurance proceeds as provided in the preceding sentence, (A) Buyer may notify all appropriate -15- insurance companies of its interest in the insurance proceeds, and (B) all casualty insurance proceeds payable as a result of the Casualty (subject to the limitation herein described) and Buyer's pro rata share of any rental or business loss proceeds shall be assigned to Buyer at Closing. (c) NON-MATERIAL DAMAGE. In the event, in Seller's reasonable determination, the reasonable cost of restoration following a Casualty does not result in Material Damage, or if despite such Material Damage Seller is nevertheless willing to be bound by the Lease Agreement, then the rights and obligations of the parties shall not be affected thereby and (i) Seller shall repair the Improvements to substantially their condition prior to the Casualty to the extent the damage caused by the Casualty can be repaired prior to Closing, and (ii) at Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer an amount equal to the deductible and the amount of any uninsured loss and assign to Buyer all of its rights in the resulting casualty insurance proceeds, but Seller may retain its rights in the resulting casualty insurance proceeds to the extent of the cost of any repairs to the Improvements performed by Seller prior to the Closing and a pro rata share of the rental or business loss proceeds, if any. In the event Seller is to assign insurance proceeds to Buyer as provided above, (A) Buyer may notify all appropriate insurance companies of its interest in the insurance proceeds, and (B) all casualty insurance proceeds payable as a result of the Casualty (subject to the limitation herein described) and Buyer's pro rata share of any rental or business loss proceeds shall be assigned to Buyer at Closing. (d) EXTENSION OF CLOSING DATE. If, as a result of a Casualty, any determination, election or agreement required by the terms of this Section 9 is not made by the Closing Date, the Closing Date shall be extended until twenty (20) days after said determination, election or agreement is made, subject to such further extension as may be allowed by the terms of this Section 9 and notwithstanding anything in Section 7(a) of this Agreement to the contrary; provided, however, if said determination, election or agreement has not been made within thirty (30) days following the originally scheduled Closing Date, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and, provided that Buyer is not in default hereunder, neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (except pursuant to Sections 3(b)(iii), 3(b)(iv)), 3(c) and 7(c) hereof) and the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer in accordance with Section 6(d). 10. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property. There are no other agreements, oral or written, with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property, and this Agreement can be amended only by written agreement signed by the parties hereto. (b) AGREEMENT BINDING ON PARTIES. This Agreement, and the terms, covenants and conditions herein contained, shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto. Buyer shall not assign its rights under this Agreement except as provided in the immediately following sentence. Buyer may not assign this Agreement in whole or in part without Seller's consent, (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as specifically set forth in the next sentence. Buyer may assign or transfer any portion or all of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, without the consent of Seller, to (i) any affiliate or affiliates of the -16- Buyer; or (ii) any number of single purpose entities formed to acquire the Property through a tax-free exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, provided, however, that such number of single purpose entities does not exceed 35 and the Buyer shall remain primarily liable for the performance of Buyer's obligations hereunder. Upon such assignment such assignee shall be deemed to be the Buyer hereunder for all purposes hereof and have all the rights of Buyer hereunder. For purposes of this paragraph, an "affiliate" shall mean any person or entity which, directly or indirectly, controls or is controlled by or is under common control with Buyer.

The "EFFECTIVE DATE" of this Agreement shall be the date on which the Escrow Agent acknowledges its receipt of a copy of this Agreement executed by both Seller and Buyer and receipt of the Deposit subject to collection. The submission of this Agreement for examination and negotiation by Seller or Buyer does not constitute an offer by Seller or Buyer to enter into an agreement to sell or purchase the Property, and neither Seller nor Buyer shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement unless and until such time as this Agreement has been executed and delivered by Seller, Buyer and the Escrow Agent.
