(b)                             Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Columbia and Inland, Inland shall deposit with Chicago Title Insurance Company, 171 N. Clark Street, Chicago, IL 60601, the sum of Four Hundred and 00/100 ($400,000.00) DOLLARS (hereinafter referred to as the “Good Faith Deposit”). This Agreement shall not be deemed to be effective and binding upon the parties hereto unless and until the Good Faith Deposit is so delivered. If the Good Faith Deposit is not paid within two business days following complete execution of this Agreement by all parties, this Agreement shall be null and void and no party shall be bound by the terms hereof. The

2

Escrow Agent shall hold the Good Faith Deposit in an interest-bearing trust account maintained by the Escrow Agent at Chicago Title Insurance Company, Chicago Office (hereinafter referred to as the “Deposit Escrow Account”), in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The term “Deposit” shall mean and refer to the Good Faith Deposit plus all accrued interest in the Deposit Escrow Account. The Deposit shall be distributed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c)                                 Intentionally deleted.

(d)                                (i)                                         The duties of the Escrow Agent are limited to those specifically provided for herein and are purely ministerial in nature. Escrow Agent shall incur no liability hereunder or otherwise except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, and Columbia and Inland hereby release Escrow Agent from any liability (other than as excepted herein) for any action taken by it hereunder or for any failure or refusal to act hereunder or for any other matter. Unless Escrow Agent shall have been guilty of gross negligence or willful misconduct, Columbia and Inland, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent from and against any liability incurred by it as a result of its acting as escrow Agent hereunder. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, however, Inland shall be solely responsible for the payment of all fees and other compensation charged by the Escrow Agent for acting as such hereunder, including the reimbursement of any costs and expenses incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with its acting as Escrow Agent hereunder.

(ii)                             Escrow Agent shall not be bound in any way or by any agreement or contract between Columbia or Inland, whether or not it has knowledge thereof, and Escrow Agent’s only duties and responsibilities shall be to hold the Deposit as escrow agent and to dispose of the Deposit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Escrow Agent shall, in the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct, have no responsibility to protect the Deposit and shall not be responsible for any failure to demand, collect or enforce any obligation with respect to the Deposit or for any diminution in value of the Deposit for any cause. Escrow Agent may, at the expense of Columbia and Inland, consult with counsel and accountants in connection with its duties under this Agreement and Escrow Agent shall be fully protected in any act taken, suffered or permitted by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel and accountants. Escrow Agent shall not be obligated to take any action hereunder which may, in its reasonable judgment, involve it in any liability unless Escrow Agent shall have been furnished with reasonable indemnity satisfactory in amount, form and substance to Escrow Agent.

(iii)                          Escrow Agent is acting as a stakeholder only with respect to the Deposit. If there is any dispute as to whether Escrow Agent is obligated to disburse the Deposit or as to whom the Deposit is to be delivered, Escrow Agent shall not make any delivery, but in such event Escrow Agent shall hold the Deposit until receipt by Escrow Agent of any authorization in writing, signed by all parties having an interest in such dispute, directing the disposition of the Deposit. In the absence of such authorization Escrow Agent shall hold the Deposit until the final determination of the

3

rights of the parties in any appropriate proceeding. Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility to determine the authenticity or validity of any notice, in accordance with any written notice, direction or instruction given to it under this Agreement and believed by it to be authentic. If such written authorization is not given, or proceedings for such determination are not begun, within thirty (30) days after the dispute arises, Escrow Agent may, but is not required to, bring an appropriate action or proceeding for leave to deposit the Deposit with a court of the State of New York. Pending such determination Escrow Agent shall be reimbursed for all costs and expenses of such action or proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements by the party determined not to be entitled to the Deposit. Upon making delivery of the Deposit in the manner provided in this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall have no further liability hereunder. In no event shall Escrow Agent be under any duty to institute, defend or participate in any proceeding which may arise between Columbia and Inland in connection with the Deposit.

(iv)                         Escrow Agent or any successor Escrow Agent may resign at any time by giving fifteen (15) days’ prior notice of resignation to the other parties hereto, such resignation to be effective on the date specified in such notice. In case the office of Escrow Agent shall become vacant for any reason, Columbia may appoint a title company, bank or trust company that is reasonably acceptable to Inland as successor Escrow Agent to the retiring Escrow Agent, whereupon such successor Escrow Agent shall succeed to all rights and obligations of the retiring Escrow Agent as if originally named hereunder, and the retiring Escrow Agent shall duly transfer and deliver to such successor Escrow Agent the funds and records, including without limitation the Deposit, held by the retiring Escrow Agent hereunder.

(e)                                  Escrow Agent shall execute this Agreement solely for the purpose of being bound by the provisions of Sections 1.2(b) and (d) hereof and to acknowledge its receipt of the Good Faith Deposit.

(f)                                    At Closing, Columbia shall receive the Contribution Value either: (i) in cash, (ii) in operating units (the “Operating Units”) in a so-called “down REIT” Delaware limited liability company (the “DR LLC”), which operating units shall be valued at $10.00 per unit; or (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii) as directed by Columbia. Attached hereto as Exhibit K and made a part hereof is the form of DR LLC operating agreement (the “DR LLC OA”). The parties hereto agree to execute the DR LLC OA at or prior to the date of Closing.

(g)                                 The Purchase Price shall be subject to increase between the date hereof and the date of Closing (and not after Closing) based upon a change in the 5-year Treasury yield (together with the lender spread of 100 basis points) from the date hereof through the date of calculation (not beyond the Closing Date). If at the time of Closing the 5-year Treasury yield (together with the lender spread of 100 basis points) is less than 5.10%, the Purchase Price shall increase ONE HUNDRED NINETEEN THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($119,000.00) for every 10 basis points the 5-year Treasury yield (together with the lender spread of 100 basis points) is under 5.10%.

Subject to any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following items shall be apportioned for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs as of midnight on the calendar day immediately preceding the Closing: (a) all Rents, revenues and other income, if any, from the Property, (b) real estate taxes; (c) water and sewer charges and other utility charges, if any, (d) all security deposits under Leases shall be credited to Inland at Closing, and (e) any other income, expense or other items relating to the Property which is customarily prorated between a purchaser and a Columbia of real property in the counties in which the Property is located.

4.2                           Other Adjustments.

(a)       Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 4.1 hereof, any taxes paid at or prior to Closing shall be prorated based upon the amounts actually paid. If taxes and assessments due and payable during the year of Closing have not been paid before Closing, Columbia shall be charged at Closing an amount equal to that portion of such taxes and assessments, plus interest and penalties, if any, which relate to the period before Closing and Inland shall pay the taxes and assessments prior to their becoming delinquent. Any such apportionment made with respect to a tax year for which the tax rate or assessed valuation, or both, have not yet been fixed shall be based upon the tax rate and/or assessed valuation last fixed. To the extent that the actual taxes and assessments for the current year differ from the amount apportioned at Closing, the parties shall make all necessary adjustments by appropriate payments between themselves within thirty (30) days after such amounts are determined following Closing, subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(b) of this Agreement.

15

Columbia shall prepare all CAM reconciliations for calendar year 2005 prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, and shall deliver copies thereof to Inland.

Such good faith negotiations shall include negotiations with respect to Rents which remain unpaid on and as of the anticipated Closing Date, as well as allocation of responsibility for the economic effect of the payment or realization of Tenant Concessions, it being the intent of the Inland and Columbia to negotiate fair and equitable credits such that (i) Columbia will have no claims against Tenants following Closing for past due Rent, CAM payments, other additional rent and Tenant Concessions, (ii) Columbia will owe no additional payments to Inland in respect of Rent, CAM payments, other additional rent and Tenant Concessions, and (iii) Inland will owe no additional payments to Columbia in respect thereof.

Subject to the negotiations referred to in Section 4.2(c) hereof, Columbia shall pay all such expenses that accrue prior to Closing and Inland shall pay all such expenses accruing as of the Closing Date and thereafter. Columbia and Inland shall obtain billings and meter readings as of the Closing Date to aid in such prorations, to the extent available or necessary.

(e)            Inland shall be entitled to a credit in the amount of the tenant security deposits set forth on Schedule 4.2(e) attached hereto.

(f)              Subject to the final sentence of Section 4.2(b) hereof, the provisions of this Section 4.2 shall survive Closing.
