Property Information in confidence), and will restore promptly any physical damage caused by the inspections. Purchaser shall give Seller reasonable prior notice of its intention to conduct any inspections or to interview or otherwise speak with the Tenants of the Real Property, and Seller reserves the right to have a representative present.

          (c) Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, Seller makes no representations or warranties as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of any materials, data or other information supplied to Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s inspection of the Property (e.g., that such materials are complete, accurate or the final version thereof, or that all such materials are in Seller’s possession). It is the parties’ express understanding and agreement that such materials have been provided only for Purchaser’s convenience in making its own examination and determination during the Inspection Period as to whether it wishes to purchase the Property, and, in doing so, Purchaser has and shall rely exclusively on its own independent investigation and evaluation of every aspect of the Property and not on any materials supplied by Seller. Purchaser expressly disclaims any intent to rely on any such materials provided to it by Seller in connection with its inspection and agrees that it shall rely solely on its own independently developed or verified information.

          3.07. Confidentiality. Except as provided in Section 3.06 hereof or otherwise required by applicable law, rule, regulation or order, each of Seller and Purchaser agrees with the other that it has no present intention of making, and shall not, without the prior written consent of the other, make in the future any public announcement about the purchase and sale transaction contemplated hereby or of any of the terms hereof, including without limitation, the results of any inspection, test, survey, or study conducted pursuant to Section 3.06 hereof unless required by law.

At any time prior to the Closing Date, or at any time if this Contract is terminated, Purchaser shall not deliver any of the documents theretofore delivered to Purchaser by Seller or obtained by Purchaser pursuant to Section 3.06 hereof, or otherwise transmit any of the information contained in any such documents, to any third party except Purchaser’s counsel, lenders, partners, consultants and other advisors, engaged to help Purchaser in its analysis of the Property, on a need-to-know basis, provided such individuals are advised of and agree to the same burdens of confidentiality and nondisclosure as Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any actual loss, injury, damage, claim, lien, cost or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from a breach of the foregoing confidentiality agreement.

Seller shall have a continuing right to attempt to collect any delinquent rentals and to prosecute any pending claims for sums owed to Seller for periods prior to Closing pursuant to pending bankruptcy proceedings affecting any Tenant. Following Closing, Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller and provide such information as Seller may reasonably request to ensure that post-closing re-prorations, including without limitation, delinquent rent re-prorations, are performed in accordance with the foregoing. The provisions of this Section 4.04(e) shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year after Closing.

          (f) Rents, if any, under the PILOT Lease.

          (g) Items not prorated, or prorated on the basis of an estimate or in error shall be readjusted after Closing upon receipt of information showing the amount that should have been prorated at Closing, or upon discovery of such error, and either party owing the other any sums after such readjustment shall be paid within one (1) month of such information or discovery of such error; provided that all prorations shall be final one (1) year after Closing. The provision of this Section 4.04(e) shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year after Closing.

        4.05. Closing Costs. All costs of closing the sale and purchase of the Property shall be borne as follows:

          (a) Purchaser shall bear the cost of (i) search and exam fees and the premium for the Owner’s Title Policy, including the cost of all endorsements to the Owner’s Title Policy, (ii) the cost of any mortgagee’s policy of title insurance, including the cost of any endorsements thereto, (iii) all of Purchaser’s due diligence costs, (iv) any transfer taxes associated with the conveyance and/or transfer of the Property, (v) one-half of any escrow costs charged by the Title Company and (vii) any modifications to the Survey required by Purchaser or its lender;

          (b) Seller shall bear the cost of (i) preparation of the deed or Assignment of the PILOT Lease and the cost of recording same, (ii) one-half of any escrow fee charged by the Title Company, (iii) the cost of obtaining the Survey of the Property, and (iv) the brokerage fee to Seller’s Agent (pursuant to separate agreement);

          (c) Attorney’s fees of Seller and Purchaser are to be paid by each, respectively; and

          (d) Any other costs related to the transfer of the Property, unless otherwise specified in this Contract, are to be borne in accordance with customary practices in Shelby County, Tennessee.

          4.06. Tax Certiorari. If there be any tax certiorari proceedings or tax protest proceedings pending with respect to the Property, then after deducting the cost of such proceedings including attorneys’ fees, all benefits obtained including, without limitation, any tax refunds attributable to (i) any tax year ended prior to the Closing Date shall be the property of and shall be paid to Seller, (ii) any tax year commencing after the Closing Date may be retained by Purchaser and (iii) the tax year in which the Closing Date occurs shall be the property of and shall be paid to Purchaser subject to apportionment between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall have the right to prosecute any such proceedings for the tax year in which the Closing Date occurs by attorneys selected by Purchaser and to settle any such proceedings without the consent of Seller. If Purchaser receives any benefits to which Seller shall be entitled under this Paragraph, Purchaser shall hold the same in trust for the benefit of Seller and promptly remit the same to Seller. The provisions of this Article shall survive the Closing. With respect to any such proceedings that are pending for any tax year ended prior to the Closing Date, such proceedings shall be prosecuted by Seller without any expense to Purchaser.

ARTICLE V

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PARTIES

        5.01. Seller’s Representations. Seller hereby represents and covenants, as of the Effective Date, and again as of the Closing:

          (a) As of the Effective Date, (i) Seller, to its knowledge, has not received any notices of a violation of the building code, any applicable zoning ordinances, or other laws relating to the use, ownership, construction or design of the Improvements with respect to the Property (other than notices of violations which have been previously removed or corrected); and (ii) Seller, to its knowledge, is not aware of and has not received any notices of any action or governmental proceeding in condemnation or eminent domain, or for a change in the zoning, which would affect the Property; and

          (b) As of the Effective Date, there are no leases or rental agreements or service agreements affecting the Property that will remain in effect after the Closing Date other than the Leases or rental agreements or service agreements currently affecting the Property and delivered by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to the LOI and this Contract. Between the date hereof and the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Contract, Seller shall not amend, modify or terminate the Leases, except that Seller shall terminate the Lease with Essex-Brownell, nor enter into new leases of space at the Property. Seller has not received any notice of default from any tenant under the Leases, and Landlord has not sent any notice of default to any tenant of the Property within the last six (6) months that remains outstanding.

          (c) That (i) Seller has the capacity and requisite authority to enter into and carry out the terms and provisions of the LOI and this Contract and the transaction contemplated hereby and will provide evidence thereof to Purchaser at Closing; (ii) Seller owns leasehold title to the Property subject to all matters of record; and (iii) no third party has any right to purchase all or any part of Property.

          (d) Seller shall not further encumber the Property or any of the Improvements or Personal Property located thereon. Between the date of the LOI and this Contract and the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Contract, Seller shall not voluntarily create any exception to title to the Property.

          (e) To the best of Seller’s knowledge, as of the date hereof, there is no cause of action or arbitration, or other proceeding pending or threatened in writing which could materially and adversely affect the Property or Seller’s ability to close pursuant to this Contract.

          (f) To the best of Seller’s knowledge, as of the date hereof, Seller has not received any written notice of any violation of any applicable federal, state or local law, statute, ordinance, rule or regulation regulating the use, generation, storage, handling or disposal of any hazardous wastes, toxic, hazardous or dangerous substances or similar substances or materials defined as hazardous, toxic or environmentally unsafe under any of the aforesaid laws, statutes, ordinances, rules or regulations.

          (g) Seller is not currently renovating the Property.

     (h) Subject to a current title search, and to the best of Seller’s knowledge, there are no mechanics liens currently affecting the Property.

          (i) Other than the amounts disclosed by the tax bills delivered or to be delivered by Seller to Purchaser as part of the due diligence materials, supplemental taxes imposed as a result of the transfer of the Property to Purchaser, or the PILOT Lease with the IDB, Seller has received no written notice of any pending proceedings for special assessments of any kind (special, bond or otherwise) to be levied against the Property, or any portion thereof.

          (j) Seller is not a person or entity with whom U.S. persons or entities are restricted from doing business with under regulations of the Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”) of the Department of the Treasury (including those named on OFAC’s Specially Designated and Blocked Persons list) or under any statute, executive order (including the September 24, 2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten or Commit, or Support Terrorism), or other governmental action. Seller is not a “foreign person” as such term is defined in Sections 1445 and 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and the regulations relating thereto.

          (k) Purchaser will have access to all such other documents and written agreements and contracts within Seller’s control or possession containing material information regarding the Property and not of a proprietary, confidential or financial nature.

          (l) The Personal Property listed on Exhibit G is all of the Personal Property owned by Seller located at the Property as of the date hereof.

     5.02. Purchaser’s Representations. Purchaser hereby represents to Seller as follows which representations shall survive the Closing:

          (a) Purchaser is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of Delaware. Purchaser has the power, right and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Contract and to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby.

          (b) Purchaser has not dealt with any broker or finder in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Contract other than Buyer’s Agent.

          Each of the representations of Seller contained in Paragraph 5.01 is made as of the Effective Date and will survive for a period of nine months after the Closing. Any claim that Purchaser may have at any time against Seller for a breach of any such representation whether known or unknown, which is not asserted by written notice from Purchaser to Seller within such nine month period will not be valid or effective, and Seller will have no liability with respect thereto. The accuracy in all material

respects of the aforesaid representations is a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to close. In the event that on or prior to Closing Seller becomes aware that any of such representations are not correct, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser of such inaccuracy. If any of said representations is not correct in all material respects at the time the same is made or as of Closing and on or prior to the Closing Purchaser has actual knowledge of such inaccuracy, Purchaser as its sole and exclusive remedies may either (a) terminate this Contract without liability on the part of Seller or Purchaser, other than Purchaser’s obligations to Seller contained in Paragraph 3.06, and the Earnest Money and all accrued interest thereon will be returned to Purchaser, or (b) waive such matter, including the right to make any claim against Seller post-Closing and proceed to Closing. Solely for purposes of this Article V, and with respect to matters known to Purchaser at Closing, “material” shall be defined as any breach for which the cost to cure is more than $25,000 for any individual breach or more than $50,000 in the aggregate for all separate and unrelated breaches. If the cost to cure any one or more of the breaches is not material and Seller does not agree to cure the same, Purchaser’s sole remedy shall be to either (such election of Purchaser to be exercised on or before the Outside Closing Date): (i) waive its rights and claims hereunder with respect to such misrepresentation, and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms of this Contract, without reduction in the Total Purchase Price, or (ii) terminate this Contract, in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser, and the parties shall have no further obligations hereunder except for obligations that expressly survive the termination of this Contract.

          As used herein, the terms “best of Seller’s knowledge”, “Seller’s actual knowledge” and “Seller’s knowledge” shall mean the current and actual knowledge, without duty of investigation or inquiry, of Ron F. Petit, an employee of Seller who, as of the Effective Date, has primary oversight responsibility within Seller with respect to the Property and is the person within Seller who is most likely to have information relating to the Property; provided, however, that Ron F. Petit shall not have any personal liability in connection with, or arising out of, any representation made by Seller in this Contract.

ARTICLE VI

PRE-CLOSING OPERATION

        6.01. Operation. Seller, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, shall maintain or cause to be maintained the Property in the same manner as it has been maintained prior to the date of this Contract. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, from and after the date hereof until Closing or the earlier termination of this Contract, Seller shall not enter into any amendment or modification of any Lease or into any new lease or amendment or modification of any Service Contract or into any new Service Contract, unless Seller obtains Purchaser’s advance written consent to such action, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, denied or conditioned prior to the end of the Inspection Period, and which may be withheld in Purchaser’s sole discretion thereafter; provided, however, no later than three (3) business days after the date hereof, Seller shall deliver to Essex-Brownell, a Tenant at the Property, a thirty (30) day notice to vacate the Property.

          Purchaser further agrees to pay Seller’s Agent a commission in an amount determined pursuant to the commission schedule set forth in Seller’s existing leasing agreement with Seller’s Agent a copy of which has been provided to Purchaser, if, within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after Closing any portion of the Property is leased to any person or entity (including his/her/its successors, assigns or affiliates) with whom Seller’s Agent has negotiated (either directly or through an agent) and whose identity was disclosed in a list of such persons or entities submitted to Purchaser by Seller’s Agent no later than Closing.

          Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 6.01 shall survive Closing.

ARTICLE VII

BREACH BY SELLER

          If Seller shall fail to fully and timely perform any of its obligations hereunder for any reason except Purchaser’s default, Purchaser shall have the following remedies, which shall be Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedies: (a) to terminate this Contract and receive a return of the Earnest Money Deposit and all interest accrued thereon or (b) to seek specific performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller defaults under this Contract because it is unable to convey the Property subject to only the Permitted Exceptions due to the existence of any other exception to title to the Property, then Purchaser’s only remedies shall be the right to (i) terminate this Contract and receive a return of the Earnest Money Deposit and all interest accrued thereon or (ii) waive such exception or failure, as applicable, and proceed with the purchase contemplated herein. Purchaser expressly agrees that it shall have no right to seek damages or any other action at law or in equity, and waives its rights, if any, with respect to this transaction under any applicable law. Failure to give notice of intent to specifically enforce this Contract on or before the date which is thirty (30) days after the Outside Closing Date shall constitute an election by Purchaser to (and shall automatically) terminate this Contract, but only in the event of Seller’s breach. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Contract and receive a return of the Earnest Money Deposit and all interest accrued 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 a date which is sixty (60) days after the Outside Closing Date. In no event shall any damages, rights or remedies for Seller’s pre-Closing breach of this Contract be collectible, enforceable or available to Purchaser other than as provided in this paragraph.

ARTICLE VIII

BREACH BY PURCHASER

          If Purchaser should fail to consummate the purchase of the Property on or before the Outside Closing Date for any reason other than Seller’s default and other than Purchaser’s right to terminate this Contract under any provision contained in this Contract, Seller shall have the right as its sole and exclusive remedy, to terminate this Contract and receive the Earnest Money Deposit from the Escrow Agent, such funds being agreed upon as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty, Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledging that the amount of damage resulting from a breach of this Contract by Purchaser would be difficult or impossible to accurately ascertain) for the failure of Purchaser to consummate the purchase of the Property as contemplated hereby, and Seller agrees to accept and take the Earnest Money Deposit as its total damages and relief and as its sole and exclusive remedy.

ARTICLE IX

ARTICLE X

RISK OF LOSS

        10.01. Minor Damage. In the event of loss or damage to the Real Property, or any portion thereof, which is not “Major” (as hereinafter defined), this Contract shall remain in full force and effect, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies relating to the premises in question and reduce the Total Purchase Price by an amount equal to the lesser of the deductible amount under Seller’s insurance policy or the cost of such repairs as determined in accordance with Section 10.03 hereof. Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser.

        10.02. Major Damage. In the event of a “Major” loss or damage, either Seller or Purchaser may terminate this Contract by written notice to the other party, in which event the Earnest Money and all accrued interest thereon shall be returned to Purchaser. If neither Seller nor Purchaser elects to terminate this Contract within ten (10) days after Seller sends Purchaser written notice of the occurrence of such Major loss or damage (which notice shall state the cost of repair or restoration thereof as opined by an architect in accordance with Section 10.03 hereof), 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 in and to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies relating to the premises in question. In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Real Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly, and the date of Closing may be extended by Seller a reasonable time not to exceed ninety (90) days in order to allow for the completion of such repairs. Purchaser shall have the right to approve the scope of such work and the contractor to perform such work, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and shall be deemed given if not objected to in writing stating reasons therefor within five (5) business days of receipt of such request for approval. If Seller elects to assign a casualty claim to Purchaser, the Total Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the lesser of the deductible amount under Seller’s insurance policy or the cost of such repairs as determined in accordance with Section 10.03 hereof. In the event such damage is not insured and Purchaser is required to Close the purchase of the Property, the Total Purchase Price shall be reduced by the reasonable actual cost of such repairs. Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing covenants of this Section 10.02, in the event of a Major loss or damage affecting only the unleased and vacant portion of the Building, and if this Contract is not terminated as provided in this Section 10.02, then Seller and Purchaser shall be deemed to

have elected to proceed with Closing, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance proceeds relating to the premises in question, and the Total Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the lesser of the deductible amount under Seller’s insurance policy or the cost of such repairs as determined in accordance with Section 10.03 above.

        10.03. Definition of “Major” Loss or Damage. For purposes of Sections 10.01 and 10.02, “Major” loss or damage refers to loss or damage to the Real Property such that the cost of repairing or restoring the premises in question to substantially the same condition which existed prior to the event of damage would be, in the opinion of an architect selected by Seller and reasonably approved by Purchaser, equal to or greater than Fifty Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($50,000.00).

        10.04. Condemnation.

          Any actual taking or condemnation for any public or quasi-public purpose or use as to which Seller receives a notice of taking from any competent authority in appropriate proceedings or by any right of eminent domain of all or any part of the Property between the date of this Contract and the Closing Date shall, at Purchaser’s option, cause a termination of this Contract. The election to terminate provided hereby must be exercised by Purchaser (or will be deemed to have been waived) by notice to Seller to that effect given within ten (10) days following Purchaser’s receipt from Seller of notice of such condemnation or threat of condemnation.

ARTICLE XI

COMMISSIONS

          Seller has agreed to pay the Commission to Seller’s Agent as real estate broker for this transaction. The Commission shall not be earned and shall not be payable until Closing, the consummation of the purchase and sale contemplated herein, the passing of title to the Property from Seller to Purchaser, and the payment of the Total Purchase Price to Seller; provided that if Closing of this transaction in strict accordance with the terms of this Contract does not occur, regardless of cause, no commission whatsoever shall be due, earned, or payable to Seller’s Agent. The Commission shall be payable in cash at Closing. Seller’s Agent has agreed to pay a fee to Buyer’s Agent. Purchaser and Seller each represents and warrants to the other that except for Seller’s Agent and Buyer’s Agent, there are no other brokers involved in this transaction. Purchaser and Seller each agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any claims by any broker or third parties (other than Agent) claiming by, through, or under it for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees, or other fees relative to the sale or lease of the Property. The foregoing indemnity shall survive Closing or termination of this Contract.

ARTICLE XII

MISCELLANEOUS

        12.01. Assignment. Subject to the provisions of this Section 12.01, the terms and provisions of this Contract are to apply to and bind the permitted successors and assigns of the parties hereto. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Contract without first obtaining Seller’s written approval, which approval may be given or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion, provided, however, Purchaser may assign its rights under this Contract to an affiliated corporation or limited liability company which is controlled and majority owned by Purchaser. In the event Purchaser intends to assign its rights hereunder, (a) Purchaser shall send Seller written notice of its request at least five (5) business days prior to Closing, which request shall include the legal name and structure of the proposed assignee,

as well as any other information that Seller may reasonably request, and (b) Purchaser and the proposed assignee shall execute an assignment and assumption of this Contract in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller, and (c) in no event shall any assignment of this Contract release or discharge Purchaser from any liability or obligation hereunder. Any transfer, directly or indirectly, of any stock (excluding less than a majority interest in publicly traded shares of Purchaser on a national stock exchange), partnership interest or other ownership interest in Purchaser shall constitute an assignment of this Contract.

        12.02. Governing Law. This Contract shall be construed under and in accordance with the laws of the State of Tennessee.

        12.11. Counterparts. This Contract may be executed in counterparts, all such counterparts shall constitute the same agreement, and the signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and may be attached to, any other counterparts.

        12.12. Limitation of Liability.

          (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Contract or any documents executed in connection herewith, if the Closing of the transaction contemplated hereunder shall have occurred, then in no event shall Seller have any liability arising pursuant to or in connection with the representations, warranties, indemnifications, covenants or other obligations (whether express or implied) of Seller under this Contract (or any document, affidavit or certificate executed or delivered in

19

connection herewith) (i) unless and until the aggregate amount of all such claims exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) and then only to the extent such aggregate amounts exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00), or (ii) for any amounts in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) singly or in the aggregate. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to prorations pursuant to this Contract.

          (b) No agent, advisor, representative, affiliate, employee, director, partner, member, beneficiary, investor, servant, shareholder, trustee or other person or entity acting on a party’s behalf or otherwise related to or affiliated with such party (collectively, “Related Parties”), shall have any personal liability, directly or indirectly, under or in connection with this Contract or any agreement made or entered into under or pursuant to the provisions of this Contract, or any amendment or amendments to any of the foregoing made at any time or times, heretofore or hereafter, and each party and its successors and assigns and, without limitation, all other persons and entities, shall look solely to the other party’s assets for the payment of any claim or for any performance, and the parties hereto, on behalf of themselves and their successors and assigns, hereby waives any and all such personal liability.

          (c) The provisions of this Section 12.12 shall survive the Closing or a termination of this Contract.

        12.13. Third Parties. Nothing in this Contract, whether expressed or implied, is intended to confer any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Contract upon any other person other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, nor is anything in this Contract intended to relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any third persons to any party to this Contract, nor shall any provision give any third parties any right of subrogation or action over or against any party to this Contract. This Contract is not intended to and does not create any third party beneficiary rights whatsoever.

        12.14. No Implied Waivers. No failure or delay of either party in the exercise of any right or remedy given to such party hereunder or the waiver by any party of any condition hereunder for its benefit (unless the time specified in this Contract for exercise of such right or remedy has expired) shall constitute a waiver of any other or further right or remedy (except to the extent expressly provided herein) nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof or any other right or remedy. No waiver by either party of any breach hereunder or failure or refusal by the other party to comply with its obligations shall be deemed a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, failure or refusal to so comply.

        12.15. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. SELLER AND PURCHASER HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER ARISING IN TORT OR CONTRACT) BROUGHT BY EITHER AGAINST THE OTHER ON ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS CONTRACT.

ARTICLE XIII

LIKE-KIND EXCHANGE

        13.01. Purchaser’s Cooperation. Purchaser acknowledges that Seller may desire to effect an exchange (the “Exchange”) of the Property for property of like-kind and qualifying use (the “Exchange Property”) pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code as amended, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Contract to the contrary, Purchaser agrees that Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller in effecting such Exchange. Seller may effect a deferred “tax-free exchange” under Section 1031 and the Treasury Regulations promulgated

thereunder, including, without limitation, through the use of a ‘qualified intermediary” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1031 (k)-1(g)(4) (hereafter a “Qualified Intermediary”), as shall be selected by Seller. Purchaser shall take such steps and execute such documents, including, without limitation, the QI Assignment (as hereinafter defined), as may be reasonably necessary to assist Seller in this regard, except that in no event will Purchaser be obligated to acquire or take title to any Exchange Property or incur any cost, expense or liability (contingent or otherwise) in connection therewith, and any such Exchange shall not unreasonably delay the Closing. Purchaser further agrees to permit Seller to assign its interest (but not its obligations, to the extent such obligations survive the Closing in accordance with the terms of this Contract) in this Contract to a Qualified Intermediary (the “QI Assignment”) as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1031(k)-1(g)(4) on or before the date of the Closing, and Purchaser, upon written notice from Seller, shall pay the Total Purchase Price to such Qualified Intermediary. Notwithstanding the above-described Exchange, Purchaser shall not be obligated to pay any amounts greater than the Total Purchase Price or incur any debt with respect to the Exchange Property or incur any other liability; and Purchaser shall not be required to make any warranties or representations in addition to those contained herein or perform any additional covenants in favor of Seller or any other Person.
