Purchaser’s agreement and obligation to maintain such confidentiality shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that Purchaser may disclose the due diligence materials to (a) employees, agents, members of professional firms serving it, and third parties assisting in the evaluation of the Property, and (b) individuals or entities evaluating the feasibility of investing in the Property.

4.2 Due Diligence Review.

(a) During the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall review all Due Diligence Materials, and, at its sole cost and expense, examine, inspect and investigate the Property to determine whether it is acceptable to Purchaser. If Purchaser shall, for any reason in Purchaser’s sole discretion, disapprove or be dissatisfied with any aspect of such information, or the Property, then Purchaser shall, subject to earlier deadlines prescribed by Section 4.2(b) hereof, be entitled to terminate this Agreement and to the return of its Earnest Money Deposit by giving written notice thereof to Seller before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, whereupon this Agreement shall automatically be rendered null and void, and thereafter neither Party shall have any further obligations or liabilities to the other hereunder, except for those obligations surviving termination hereof. Purchaser covenants with Seller, which covenants shall survive termination hereof, that it shall repair and restore any damage or alteration to the Property occurring during the course of inspections by Purchaser or any of its agents, and Purchaser agrees to and shall indemnify, hold harmless and, should Seller elect, defend Seller, its agents, representatives and designees from and against any and all claims for death or injury to persons or property arising out of or in connection with Purchaser’s (or its successors, assigns, agents, representatives and designees) activities upon or around the Property, together with any loss or damage Seller may incur from any liens, costs, (including attorneys fees), expenses, liabilities and damages arising therefrom. Purchaser shall provide Seller with certificates evidencing the comprehensive general liability insurance policies which shall be maintained by Purchaser and each consultant which Purchaser will have present on the Property in connection with its investigation upon the Property prior to the date of entry upon the Property, with limits, coverage and insurer under such policies being reasonably satisfactory to Seller. All third party consultants employed by Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s investigation of the Property shall be reputable, maintain adequate levels of insurance, and otherwise be satisfactory to Seller, acting reasonably. Purchaser shall conduct its due diligence investigation of the Property in a manner that will not interfere with the day-to-day operations of the Property and without disturbance to any tenant of the Property. Purchaser shall not engage in any onsite examination of the Property nor engage in any communications with any tenant (or any employee of tenant) or with any employee or contractor of Seller, or any service provider, claimant or person asserting any claim against Seller without first notifying Charlie Coppolino, representative of Seller, of the time that Purchaser desires to communicate with Tenant. Seller shall, at its option, have the right to cause a representative of Seller to be present at all such inspections, examinations and communications.

(b) Purchaser shall review title to the Property as disclosed by the Title Commitment and the Survey. Seller shall have no obligation to cure title objections other than outstanding security deeds encumbering the Property, which Seller shall cause to be released at the Closing. As to any title objections, Purchaser may, on or before seven (7) business days prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, in writing, request Seller to cure any title matters not acceptable to Purchaser. Seller shall have five (5) days following receipt of Purchaser’s request to indicate (the “Seller’s Response Notice”) to Purchaser which, if any, of Purchaser’s objections Seller will cure. If there are any objections Seller declines to cure or if Seller fails to deliver the Seller’s Response Notice within the requisite time period, then at the option of Purchaser, evidenced by written notice (“Purchaser’s Response Notice”) to Seller delivered within two (2) days after delivery of the Seller’s Response Notice to Purchaser, Purchaser may elect (i) to terminate this Agreement and receive the return of all the Earnest Money Deposit (less any amounts payable to Seller pursuant to Section 3.3 herein), and this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect, except for the provisions which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement, or (ii) to close, in which event Purchaser shall receive the limited warranty deed required herein from Seller irrespective of such objections, and without reduction of the Purchase Price. In the event Purchaser fails to deliver Purchaser’s Response Notice within said two (2) day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to close the purchase subject to such objections without reduction in the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, Purchaser shall have the right to object to any title exceptions first arising after the effective date of the Title Commitment, and to the extent any new monetary liens are filed during this period, Seller shall satisfy or have such monetary liens removed from the Property (provided, however, that Seller shall have the right to extend the Closing Date up to 15 days to satisfy or remove said monetary liens). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the term “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean: the specific exceptions (exceptions that are not part of the promulgated title insurance form) in the Title Commitment as of the Closing Date that Seller is not required to remove as provided above or that Purchaser has not objected to in writing under this Section 4.2; items shown on the Survey, which have not been removed by Seller prior to Closing that Purchaser has not objected to under this Section 4.2; such restrictive covenants, use restrictions, zoning requirements and other matters which do not materially interfere with the use and operation of the Property for its existing use(s); matters shown in Exhibit “D” attached hereto: and, real estate taxes and assessments not yet due and payable with respect to the Property or any portion thereof. To the extent Seller’s Response Notice contains title objections which Seller elects to cure, Seller will be obligated to cure such objections at or prior to Closing.

(c) Prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller: two (2) prints of the Survey, together with a legally sufficient description of the metes and bounds of the Property based on the Survey, along with a copy of Purchaser’s Title Commitment with a copy of all underlying exception documents.

(o) Seller agrees to deliver to all tenants of the Property a request for an estoppel certificate in a form to be provided by Purchaser to Seller for Seller’s reasonable approval within seven (7) days of the Effective Date of this Agreement (and Seller shall have up to seven (7) days upon receipt to review and approve said estoppel certificate); provided, however, that if any of the Tenant Leases require a specific form of estoppel letter, the estoppel letter required by said Tenant Lease will be the only estoppel required hereunder. The form of estoppel certificate provided by Purchaser and approved by Seller shall be attached as Exhibit “E” hereto. The parties agree that, subject to the provisions of this paragraph below, it shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close under this Agreement that an estoppel certificate be delivered to Purchaser from tenants under Tenant Leases covering at least 80% of the leased square footage of each building at the Property on the date hereof (and from every tenant which occupies over 5,000 square feet (referred to herein as a “Major Tenant”)) (the “Required Tenant Estoppels”), no later than three (3) days before Closing. Additionally, Seller shall deliver to each tenant a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement (on a form provided by Purchaser) (the “SNDA”), and Seller shall use its best efforts to obtain the SNDAs from each tenant, but it shall not be a condition to close that SNDAs be obtained from each tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall deliver the form SNDA to Seller for review and approval within seven (7) days of the Effective Date of this Agreement (and Seller shall have up to seven (7) days upon receipt to review and approve said SNDA form). Once the SNDA form is approved by Seller, Seller shall be obligated to obtain SNDAs prior to closing from each of the following tenants: (a) Piedmont Medical Care Corporation (pursuant to Office Lease dated September 1, 2006 with Seller, as amended); (b) Piedmont Medical Care Corporation for Piedmont Rheumatology and Arthritis — Yorktown (pursuant to Office Lease dated September 1, 2006 with Seller, as amended); (c) Piedmont Medical Care Corporation (pursuant to Office Lease dated April 1, 2006 with Seller, as amended); and (d) Fayette Community Hospital, Inc. d/b/a Piedmont Fayette Hospital (pursuant to Office Lease dated October 1, 2004 with Seller, as amended). If Seller fails to obtain SNDAs from all of the aforementioned four (4) tenants prior to Closing, then Seller shall escrow the sum of $300,000.00 which shall be held by Title Company until such time as the SNDAs are obtained and delivered to Purchaser. Seller agrees to use good faith efforts to obtain such Required Tenant Estoppels and SNDAs, provided however, Seller shall not be obligated to expend any funds in order to do so. In the event a Tenant Estoppel contains a material exception or qualification or alleges a material default by Seller (a “Material Default”), Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement by delivering notice thereof in writing to Seller, on the earlier of two (2) business days after the date of delivery to Purchaser of a Tenant Estoppel alleging a Material Default and the Closing Date (the “Estoppel Termination Notice”), time being of the essence as to the giving of such notice. If Purchaser shall timely give the Estoppel Termination Notice, then subject to Seller’s option set forth below, this Agreement shall terminate, and upon such termination, Purchaser shall be entitled to the return of the Earnest Money, and neither party shall have any obligation hereunder except for the obligations specifically intended by the parties to survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser shall not have given timely the Estoppel Termination Notice, time being of the essence as to the giving of such notice, Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to be satisfied with the form and substance of each Tenant Estoppel and shall have no further right to object thereto or to terminate this Agreement based on the response or lack thereof with respect to the Tenant Estoppels. Additionally, it shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close that no Major Tenant has filed for bankruptcy, defaulted pursuant to their lease, or discontinued operations at the Property.

7.2 Purchaser’s Closing Obligations. At the Closing, Purchaser shall execute and deliver to the Title Company for delivery to Seller:

(a) Wired funds payable to the order of the Seller representing the balance of the Purchase Price due in accordance with Section 3.1 and other applicable provisions herein.

(b) Execute and deliver an assumption agreement in a form mutually acceptable to the parties assuming the obligations of Seller under the Tenant Leases and the Assumed Agreements.

(c) Such instruments as are necessary or reasonably required by Seller or the Title Company to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby, including evidence of authority of Purchaser to consummate the purchase and sale transaction contemplated hereby and to execute and deliver the closing documents on the Purchaser’s part to be delivered.

(d) A closing statement itemizing the Purchase Price and all adjustments thereto as provided herein.

ARTICLE VIII.

Expenses of Closing

8.1 Closing Prorations. The following items shall be prorated and adjusted between the Seller and the Purchaser as of 11:59 p.m. on the day preceding the Closing Date:

(a) Rents. All rents and other receipts actually received in the month in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated as of the Closing. Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts after the Closing to collect delinquent rents for the period up to the Closing. Percentage Rents (if any) shall be prorated by Purchaser when received by Purchaser, based on twelve thirty (30) day months.

(b) Taxes. Real estate taxes, recurring assessments, and personal property taxes, if any, on all or any portion of the Property, based on the regular and supplemental tax bills for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated as of the Closing. If the tax bill has not yet been issued for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs, then such proration shall be based upon the most current information available regarding the Property valuation and tax rates. If any supplemental real estate taxes are levied for any period preceding the Closing, the parties will, immediately after the closing or the issuance of the supplemental real estate tax bill (whichever last occurs), prorate between themselves, in cash, without interest and to the date of the Closing Date, the supplemental real estate taxes shown by such bill.

(c) Utilities. All utilities, including gas, water, sewer, electricity, telephone and other utilities supplied to the Property shall be read as of the Closing Date. Seller shall pay, prior to the Closing Date, all such amounts for which a bill has been received or for which service was rendered prior to the Closing Date.

(d) Business Agreements. Amounts payable under Business Agreements shall be prorated at Closing. Seller shall pay, prior to the Closing Date, all such amounts for which service was rendered prior to the Closing Date. Prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall notify the Seller which of the Business Agreements Purchaser wishes to assume at Closing (the “Assumed Agreements”) and Purchaser shall assume and be responsible for all of Seller’s obligations under the Assumed Agreements from and after Closing. Seller shall be responsible for the termination as of Closing of all Business Agreements other than the Assumed Agreements which may be terminated by their terms. The leasing and management agreements applicable to the Property shall be terminated by Seller prior to Closing.

(e) Other Items. All other proratable items, including without limitation licenses and permits being assumed by Purchaser (if any; provided that in no event shall Purchaser assume any indemnification obligations of Seller) and other income from, and expenses associated with, the Property shall be prorated between Purchaser and Seller as of the Closing.

Purchaser and Seller’s obligation to prorate shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year (unless within such time Purchaser or Seller makes a claim against the other party to this Agreement with respect to such obligation to prorate, in which case such obligation shall survive without limitation), and Purchaser and Seller shall use good faith efforts to conclude prorations with respect to percentage rent (if applicable) as soon as practicable after the determination of the amounts thereof.

The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it has no right, title or interest in or to any refunds which may hereafter be payable to the Seller, or the tenants, in respect of real estate taxes, water or sewer charges or other assessments which accrued and related to the period prior to the Closing Date. To the extent that such refunds are paid to Seller and are due to tenants, Seller does hereby covenant and agree that it shall, upon receipt thereof, reimburse tenants for their applicable share of such refunds.

Such other rental arrearages will remain the sole and exclusive property of Seller after Closing, and Seller shall retain all right, title, power and authority to enforce payment thereof after Closing but, provided, further, at Seller’s reasonable cost and expense, Purchaser will assist Seller by all reasonable means in Seller’s collection of such outstanding rents, provided that Purchaser shall not be obligated to incur any costs or file or become a party to any litigation. If, after Closing, Purchaser, or its designee, shall receive any delinquent rents as to which Seller did not receive a proration credit at Closing, Purchaser covenants and agrees, on its behalf and on behalf of its designee, to immediately remit such amounts to Seller; provided, however, that any rents received from tenants shall first be applied to amounts currently owed by such tenants. The provisions of this Section 8.1 as pertains to rent proration shall survive Closing. Seller shall retain all security deposits and other similar deposits, and Purchaser shall receive a credit for such deposits at Closing.

8.2 Closing Costs. Purchaser shall pay: (a) all title examination fees and premiums for the Title Policy and any endorsements thereto; (b) the charges and costs of any Survey, environmental assessments, building assessments or other inspections which it may commission of the Property during the Due Diligence Period; (c) the charges for or in connection with the recording and/or filing of any instrument or document provided herein or contemplated by this Agreement or any agreement or document described or referred to herein; (d) Purchaser’s legal, accounting and other professional fees; and (e) one-half of the charges by the Title Company for escrow services for the Earnest Money Deposits and closing escrow fees. Seller shall pay: (a) Seller’s legal, accounting and other professional fees and expenses and the cost of all certificates, instruments, documents and papers required to be delivered, or to cause to be delivered, by Seller hereunder, including without limitation, the cost of performance by Seller of its obligations hereunder; (b) all recording costs on documents necessary for Seller to clear title (to the extent required of it hereunder) other than the Permitted Exceptions; (c) one-half of the charges by the Title Company for escrow services for the Earnest Money Deposits and closing escrow fees; and (d) all transfer taxes payable in connection with the delivery for recording of any title transfer instrument or document by Seller provided in or contemplated by this Agreement or any agreement or commitment described or referred to herein;. Purchaser and Seller shall each be responsible for other costs in the usual and customary manner for this kind of transaction in the county where the Property is located.

8.3 Commissions/Broker’s Fees. Seller and Purchaser represent and warrant each to the other that other than Carter Real Estate (“Broker”) they have not dealt with any real estate broker, sales person or finder in connection with this transaction. In the event of any claim for broker’s or finder’s fees or commissions by any party other than said brokers in connection with the negotiation, execution or consummation of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, each party shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any such claim based upon any statement, representation or agreement of such party. At Closing Seller shall pay all commissions to Broker pursuant to a separate agreement between Broker and Seller. No commission shall be due or payable to Broker in the event Closing does not occur for any reason. Broker has represented Seller in this transaction.

8.4 Improvement Liens. Certified, confirmed or ratified liens fully due and payable for governmental improvements as of the Closing, if any, shall be paid in full by Seller, and pending liens or installment liens accruing after the Closing Date for governmental improvements completed as of the Closing shall be assumed by Purchaser.

ARTICLE IX.

Default and Remedies

9.1 Seller’s Default; Purchaser’s Remedies.

(a) Seller’s Default. Seller shall be deemed to be in default hereunder upon the occurrence of the following events: (i) any of Seller’s warranties or representations set forth herein shall be materially untrue when made; or (ii) Seller shall fail to meet, comply with, or perform any material covenant, agreement or obligation on its part required within the time limits and in the manner required in this Agreement and shall fail to cure same within five (5) business days after receipt of written notice from Purchaser (provided that any cure period shall not operate to extend the Closing date).

(b) Purchaser’s Remedies. In the event Seller shall be deemed to be in continuing default hereunder after the expiration of the applicable cure period, then Purchaser may, at Purchaser’s sole option, either:

(i) terminate this Agreement by written notice delivered to Seller on or before the Closing Date, in which case all payments previously made by Purchaser to Seller or the Title Company hereunder shall be returned to Purchaser by Seller or the Title Company, and this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect, except for the provisions which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement, whereupon Purchaser shall have no further rights or remedies with respect to Seller or this Agreement. Purchaser shall have no obligation to deposit the Purchase Price into escrow prior to exercising its remedy to terminate this Agreement and receive the return of all payments previously made by Purchaser to Seller or Title company; or

(ii) waive such default by Seller and elect to purchase the Property pursuant to the terms hereof; or

(iii) within thirty (30) days of said default, bring an action seeking specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, but in no event shall Purchaser have the right to seek damages against Seller. Purchaser shall have no obligation to deposit the Purchase Price into escrow prior to seeking an action for specific performance, but Purchaser must not otherwise be in default hereunder.

9.2 Purchaser’s Default; Seller’s Remedies.

(a) Purchaser’s Default. Purchaser shall be deemed to be in default hereunder upon the occurrence of the following events: (i) any of Purchaser’s warranties or representations set forth herein shall be untrue when made; or (ii) Purchaser shall fail to meet, comply with, or perform any material covenant, agreement or obligation on its part required within the time limits and in the manner required in this Agreement and shall fail to cure same within five (5) business days after written notice from Seller (except for the timely payment of the Purchase Price at Closing, for which no notice and cure period applies) (provided that any cure period shall not operate to extend the Closing date) .

(b) Seller’s Remedy. In the event Purchaser shall be in continuing default hereunder after the expiration of the applicable cure period, Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement and receive from the Title Company upon written notice to it all monies held as the Earnest Money Deposit (including all interest thereon) hereunder as liquidated damages, Seller waiving all other rights or remedies in the event of such default by Purchaser, except for those matters expressly surviving termination hereof and including collection of the aforementioned fees, costs and expenses. The parties have agreed that a reasonable estimate of the total net detriment that Seller would suffer in such event is and shall be the Title Company’s delivery of the Earnest Money Deposit to Seller as liquidated damages, as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement (subject to those provisions of this Agreement which, by their express terms, survive a termination of this Agreement). Such liquidated damages are not intended as a forfeiture or penalty within the meaning of applicable law.

ARTICLE X.

Miscellaneous

10.1 Survival. All of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnities of Seller and Purchaser contained in this Agreement, to the extent not performed at or prior to the Closing, shall be deemed independent of one another and shall survive the Closing for the specified period herein (if any) and shall not be deemed to merge upon the acceptance of the Deed by Purchaser.

10.2 Right of Assignment. Purchaser shall have no right to assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Nothwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have the right to assign the Agreement to an entity controlled or managed by Purchaser, provided that Purchaser provides to Seller a copy of said assignment whereby the assignee assumes all obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Additionally, Purchaser may designate up to 35 entities (who will not be contract assignees) to be the grantee on the Limited Warranty Deed to be delivered by Seller; provided that such designation shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations hereunder.

10.3 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be either (a) delivered in person, (b) delivered by a recognized delivery service or (c) sent by facsimile transmission (provided that the communication is also sent by overnight courier) and addressed as follows:

or at such other address, and to the attention of such other person, as the parties shall give notice as herein provided. A notice, request and other communication shall be deemed to be duly received if delivered in person or by a recognized delivery service, when left at the address of the recipient and if sent by facsimile, upon receipt by the sender of an acknowledgment or transmission report generated by the machine from which the facsimile was sent indicating that the facsimile was sent in its entirety to the recipient’s facsimile number; provided that if a notice, request or other communication is served by hand or is received by facsimile on a day which is not a business day, or after 5:00 P.M. on any business day at the addressee’s location, such notice or communication shall be deemed to be duly received by the recipient at 9:00 a.m. on the first business day thereafter.

10.4 Entire Agreement; Modifications. This Agreement embodies and constitutes the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated herein, and all prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, representations and statements (oral or written) are merged into this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, modified, amended, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by the Party against whom the enforcement of such waiver, modification, amendment, discharge or termination is sought, and then only to the extent set forth in such instrument. This Agreement, although initially drawn by one of the Parties hereto, shall not be construed for or against either party as a result thereof in any dispute pertaining to this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby, but this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with language hereof in an effort to reach the result intended thereby.

10.5 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

10.6 Captions. The captions in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and in no way define, describe, or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or any of the provisions hereof.

10.7 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, and assigns; provided, however the delivery of the Agreement by one party shall not be binding upon either until both parties have fully executed same.

10.8 Time is of the Essence. With respect to all provisions of this Agreement, time is of the essence. However, if the first date of any period which is set out in any provision of this Agreement falls on a day which is not a Business Day, then, in such event, the time of such period shall be extended to the next day which is a Business Day.

10.9 Waiver of Conditions. Any Party may at any time or times, at its election, waive any of the conditions to its obligations hereunder, but any such waiver shall be effective only if contained in a writing signed by such Party. No waiver by a Party of any breach of this Agreement or of any warranty or representation hereunder by the other Party shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach by such other Party (whether preceding or succeeding and whether or not of the same or similar nature), and no acceptance of payment or performance by a Party after any breach by the other Party shall be deemed to be a waiver of any breach of this Agreement or of any representation or warranty hereunder by such other Party, whether or not the first Party knows of such breach at the time it accepts such payment or performance. No failure or delay by a Party to exercise any right it may have by reason of the default of the other Party shall operate as a waiver of default or modification of this Agreement or shall prevent the exercise of any right by the first Party while the other Party continues to be so in default.

10.10 Interpleader. Seller and Purchaser mutually agree that in the event of any controversy regarding the Earnest Money Deposit(s), unless mutual written instructions are received by the Title Company directing the Earnest Money Deposit’s disposition, the Title Company shall not take any action, but instead shall await the disposition of any proceeding relating to the earnest money or, at the Title Company’s option, the Title Company may interplead all parties and deposit the earnest money with a court of competent jurisdiction in which event the Title Company may recover all of its court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. Seller or Purchaser, whichever loses in any such interpleader action, shall be solely obligated to pay such costs and fees of the Title Company, as well as the reasonable attorneys’ fees of the prevailing party in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.

10.11 Severability. In the event any term or provision of this Agreement be determined by appropriate judicial authority to be illegal or otherwise invalid, such provision shall be given its nearest legal meaning or be construed as deleted as such authority determines, and the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed to be in full force and effect.

10.12 No Recording. Purchaser shall not record this Agreement or any short form, memorandum or notice thereof in any public or governmental office.

10.13 Seller’s Exculpation. In the event of a default by Seller hereunder prior to or at Closing, Purchaser’s sole remedies shall be as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no direct or indirect subsidiary, affiliate, shareholder, officer, director, employee, agent, trustee, or contractor of Seller shall have any liability hereunder or in connection therewith.

10.14 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any litigation between the parties under this Agreement, the prevailing party, in addition to those damages and other awards given such party therein, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs at all trial and appellate levels.

10.15 Like-Kind Exchange Provisions. Notwithstanding Section 10.2 to the contrary, if either party desires to purchase or sell the Property in connection with a tax-deferred exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, that party (the “Exchanging Party”) may assign its rights under this Agreement to a “qualified exchange intermediary” within the meaning of said Section 1031. In such case, the other party (the “Non-Exchanging Party”) shall sign such documents and otherwise reasonably cooperate, as may be reasonably necessary, to complete the tax-deferred exchange including delivering or receiving the Deed or all or a portion of the Purchase Price to or from a third party, provided that the Exchanging Party shall pay any expenses incurred by the Non-Exchanging Party as a result of such cooperation, and such cooperation shall not increase the obligations or potential liability of the Non-Exchanging Party under this Agreement or delay the Closing Date or other time frames set forth in this Agreement.

10.16 Assignment to REIT. The Seller acknowledges that Purchaser may assign all of its rights, title and interest in and to this Agreement.  The assignee may be a publicly registered company (“Registered Company”) promoted by the Purchaser.  The Seller acknowledges that it has been advised that if the purchaser is a Registered Company, the assignee is required to make certain filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC Filings”) that relate to the most recent pre-acquisition fiscal year (the “Audited Year”) and the current fiscal year through the date of acquisition (the “stub period”) for the Property. To assist the assignee in preparing the SEC Filings, the Seller agrees to provide the assignee with the following, provided that Seller has in its possession, or can obtain at no cost to Seller, the following:

  1.   Access to bank statements for the Audited year and stub period;

      2.  Rent Roll as of the end of the Audited Year and stub period;

  3.   Operating Statements for the Audited Year and stub period;

  4.   Access to the general ledger for the Audited Year and stub period;

  5.   Cash receipts schedule for each month in the Audited Year and stub period;

  6.   Access to invoice for expenses and capital improvements in the Audited Year and stub period;

  7.   Accounts payable ledger and accrued expense reconciliations;

  8.   Check register for the 3-months following the Audited Year and stub period;

  9.   Leases and 5-year lease schedules;

  10.   Copies of all insurance documentation for the Audited Year and stub period;

  11.   Copies of accounts receivable aging as of the end of the Audited Year and stub period along with an explanation for all accounts over 30 days past due as of the end of the Audited Year and stub period; and

12. The letter attached hereto as Exhibit “G”

10.17 Miscellaneous Closing Matters.

(a) At Closing, the Purchaser shall receive a credit toward the Purchase Price in the amount of $30,096 related to the Eye Consultants Lease for free rent.

(b) Seller’s current first mortgage lender requires a 30-day notice prior to closing, and the closing must occur exactly 30 days after notice. To ensure compliance with this requirement, Purchaser and Seller agree that all executed closing documents must be delivered to Title Company no later than one day prior to the Closing Date. Additionally, Purchaser shall deposit all funds required for Closing with Title Company on the day before the Closing Date. In consideration for Purchaser funding the required funds one day before the Closing Date, Seller agrees to pay to Purchaser an amount equal to one day of interest on the required funds at the interest rate being charged by Purchaser’s lender to Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s loan to fund the transaction, said rate not to exceed 8% per annum.
