It is the parties' express understanding and agreement that all of the Property Documents and any other such materials are provided by Seller solely for Purchaser's convenience in making its own examination and determination prior to the Approval Date as to whether it wishes to purchase the Property, and, in making such examination and determination, Purchaser shall rely exclusively on its own 8. independent investigation and evaluation of the Property and not on the Property Documents or other such materials supplied by Seller or its agents or representatives. 3.1.4 All obligations and agreements of, and indemnifications by, Purchaser contained in this Section 3 shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement for any reason. 3.2 TITLE AND SURVEY. 3.2.1 Purchaser shall, at its sole expense and as it deems necessary, obtain (a) a commitment (the "TITLE Commitment") from the Title Company to issue an owner's and a mortgagee's policy of title insurance (the "TITLE POLICY") insuring the Land and the Improvements, with such affirmative coverage and endorsements as Purchaser and/or its lender, if any, shall require and shall have contracted for with the Title Company prior to expiration of the Due Diligence Period, (b) copies of all items shown as exceptions to title in the Title Commitment, and (c) a survey of the Land prepared by a qualified surveyor licensed in Washington, D.C.(the "SURVEY"). Purchaser shall provide to Seller a true and complete copy of each of the foregoing items described in this Section 3.2.1, promptly upon Purchaser's receipt thereof, but in no event later than the Title Objection Date (defined in Section 3.2.2, below). 3.2.2 Purchaser shall have until 5:00 p.m. Washington, D.C. time, on the twentieth (20th) day after the Effective Date ("TITLE OBJECTION DATE") in which to provide written notice to Seller ("TITLE/SURVEY NOTICE") of any matters affecting title to the Property, including those disclosed by the Title Commitment (collectively, the "TITLE Objections"), or shown on the Survey (collectively, the "SURVEY OBJECTIONS") which are not satisfactory to Purchaser. A Title/Survey Notice must specify the reason each Title Objection and Survey Objection is not satisfactory and Purchaser's proposed curative steps to remove the basis for Purchaser's dissatisfaction. In the event that Purchaser provides Seller with a Title/Survey Notice, the parties shall, during the Title/Survey Objection Response Period (hereinafter defined), make such arrangements or take such steps as they shall mutually agree to satisfy Purchaser's objection(s); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever to expend or agree to expend any funds to undertake or agree to undertake any obligations or otherwise to cure or agree to attempt to cure any Title Objections or Survey Objections, other than Must-Cure Objections (hereinafter defined) and Title Objections or Survey Objections that Seller has expressly agreed to attempt to cure in a written notice given to Purchaser on or before the expiration of the Title/Survey Objection Response Period and which recites that it is in response to a Title/Survey Notice. The failure of Seller to provide written notice to Purchaser prior to expiration of the Title/Survey Objection Response Period of Seller's intent to cure a Title Objection or Survey Objection shall be deemed to be and constitute Seller's election not to cure such Title Objections or Survey Objections; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not alleviate Seller's obligation to cure any Must-Cure Objections. As used herein, the term "TITLE/SURVEY OBJECTION RESPONSE PERIOD" shall mean the period beginning on the date on which Seller receive a Title/Survey Notice and ending on the earlier to occur of: (a) ten (10) days thereafter; or (b) the Approval Date. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cure all Must-Cure Objections and any Title Objections or Survey Objections which it has expressly agreed to cure in accordance with the foregoing, on or prior to the Date of Closing; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Seller may, but shall not be obligated to, in its sole discretion, extend the Closing for up to sixty 9. (60) days in order to attempt to cure any Must-Cure Objection, or any Title Objection or Survey Objection which Seller has expressly agreed to cure. The term "MUST-CURE OBJECTION" means a lien or encumbrance affecting the Property that constitutes, secures or evidences an outstanding obligation of Seller under any: (A) mortgage, deed of trust or other lien encumbering title to the Property which secures a loan or other monetary obligation of Seller and which was voluntarily granted to the beneficiary thereof by Seller to secure such obligation, and/or (B) judgment entered against Seller by a court with competent jurisdiction, delinquent tax obligation, mechanics or materialmens' liens or similar obligations of Seller (and expressly not of any tenant or other third-party), PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a lien or encumbrance described in this Subsection (B) shall be deemed and constitute a Must-Cure Objection only if such lien or encumbrance: (1) relates to and secures a valid and legal obligation of Seller which would survive Closing and thereafter remain enforceable against the Property and/or Purchaser, (2) can be fully and finally satisfied and discharged merely by the payment of a liquidated or pre-determined sum to the beneficiary thereof and without Seller having to satisfy any further requirements in connection with the cure and release of same, and (3) the cost to effect the cure or cures of all such Must-Cure Objections shall not exceed $20,000, in the aggregate. For purposes of this Agreement, a Must-Cure Objection, Title Objection or Survey Objection shall be deemed cured by Seller if: (i) to the extent the objection can be cured by the payment of money, Seller deposit with the Title Company at Closing (or instructs the Title Company to withhold from the proceeds of sale payable to Seller upon consummation of Closing) an amount sufficient to satisfy the Must-Cure Objection, Title Objection or Survey Objection in full, or (ii) Seller cause the Title Company to provide "AFFIRMATIVE INSURANCE OVER" such Must-Cure Objection, Title Objection or Survey Objection, PROVIDED that the terms and coverage of such affirmative insurance shall be approved by Seller and Purchaser in their reasonable discretion, or (iii) Seller cause the Title Company to remove such Must-Cure Objection, Title Objection or Survey Objection from Schedule B of the Title Policy. In the event that Seller elect to cure a Must-Cure Objection by causing the Title Company to provide affirmative insurance over same in accordance with the foregoing Subsection (ii), such affirmative insurance shall be deemed reasonable and approved by both Seller and Purchaser if the terms and coverage provided thereby are consistent with the terms and coverage typically and customarily extended by nationally known and recognizable title insurance companies providing affirmative insurance over liens and encumbrances of a similar nature and scope in connection with the closing of other similar acquisitions of commercial real estate located in and around the commercial market in which the Property is located. 3.2.3 Purchaser's sole right with respect to any Title Objections or Survey Objections contained in a Title/Survey Notice given in a timely manner which Seller has not expressly agreed to attempt to cure during the Title/Survey Objection Response Period, or which Seller has agreed to cure but has failed to affect such cure on or prior to the Date of Closing, shall be to elect to either (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further liability, obligations or rights under this Agreement other than the Surviving Obligations, or (b) waive such Title Objection or Survey Objection and proceed to Closing with such matters being added to, and made a part of, the Permitted Exceptions. 3.2.4 Any (a) existing title or survey matters which are not included as Title Objections or Survey Objections in a Title/Survey Notice given by Purchaser to Seller on or 10. before 5:00 p.m., Washington, D.C. time, on the Title Objection Date; or (b) Title Objection or Survey Objection with respect to which a timely Title/Survey Notice is given, but which has not been cured by Seller during the Title/Survey Objection Cure Period or for which Seller has not expressly agreed to attempt to cure, and the cure of which has been waived, or deemed waived, by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 3.2, shall be deemed to be approved by Purchaser as "PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS" as provided in Section 3.4 hereof. Purchaser agrees that the Purchaser's consummation of Closing shall constitute conclusive evidence of Purchaser's waiver of all uncured Title Objections and Survey Objections. 3.3 CONTRACTS. On or before the Approval Date, Purchaser shall provide Seller written notice ("SERVICE CONTRACT TERMINATION NOTICE") of Purchaser's election to cause Seller to terminate any Terminable Contract (hereinafter defined) identified in such Service Contract Termination Notice. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "TERMINABLE CONTRACT" shall mean any Contract which is terminable upon thirty (30) days', or less, prior notice without payment of a termination or similar fee. Provided that this Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to Section 3.5, below, Seller shall promptly after the Approval Date deliver to the contractor under any Terminable Contract specified in a properly and timely delivered Service Contract Termination Notice a termination notice or other writing required pursuant to the terms of such Terminable Contract to effect the termination thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall assume at and as of Closing: (a) any Terminable Contract specified in a properly and timely delivered Service Contract Termination Notice, the termination of which, notwithstanding the delivery by Seller to the contractor thereunder of a termination notice or other writing, has not been effected as of the Closing, for the period between the Date of Closing and the date on which such termination is effective; (b) any Contract which cannot be terminated upon thirty (30) days', or less, prior notice, or which with respect to such termination requires the payment of a termination or other similar fee, and (c) any Terminable Contract not specified in a properly and timely delivered Service Contract Termination Notice. As used herein, the term "CONTRACTS" shall mean all management, service, maintenance, supply or other contracts relating to the operation, use, maintenance and repair of the Property, and all other such contracts or agreements in effect as of the date hereof which are listed on Exhibit 3.3 attached hereto, and any new Contracts entered into pursuant to Section 4.3, below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall cause the existing management and leasing agreement between Seller and its property manager for the Property to be terminated and of no further force or effect at and as Closing. 3.4 PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS. Provided that this Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to Section 3.5, below, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved and to have agreed to purchase the Property subject to the following (collectively, the "PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS"): 3.4.1 All Title Objections, Survey Objections, and any defects in or to title to the Property or other matters affecting or relating to the title to, or the survey of, the Property existing as of the Title Objection Date and not included in a Title/Survey Notice given by Purchaser prior to the Title Objection Date and/or which Purchaser has otherwise approved or is deemed to have approved pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof; 11. 3.4.2 All Contracts remaining in effect as of the Date of Closing which Purchaser has approved or is deemed to have approved pursuant to Sections 3.3 and 4.3 hereof; 3.4.3 All Leases listed on Exhibit 1.1.6 attached hereto remaining in effect as of the Date of Closing and any other Leases which Purchaser has approved or is deemed to have approved pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof, and the rights of all tenants thereunder, as tenants only; 3.4.4 The lien of non-delinquent real and personal property taxes and assessments; 3.4.5 Discrepancies, conflicts in boundary lines, shortages in area, encroachments, and any state of facts shown on the Survey or which an inspection of the premises would disclose and which are not shown by the public records; 3.4.6 Easements or claims of easements not shown by the public records and of which Seller has no current actual knowledge; 3.4.7 Service, installation, connection, maintenance or construction charges due after Closing, and, subject to the proration provisions hereof, charges for sewer, water, electricity, telephone, cable television or gas; 3.4.8 Unrecorded leaseholds, rights of vendors and holders of security interests on personal property installed upon the Property by tenants and rights of tenants to remove trade fixtures at the expiration of the term of the Leases; and 3.4.9 All federal, state and local laws, regulations, statutes and ordinances affecting the Property, and any violations by the Property thereof. 3.5 PURCHASER'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE. Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, for any or no reason whatsoever, by providing to Seller written notice of such termination before 5:00 p.m. Washington, D.C. time on the Approval Date, time being of the essence. Purchaser shall also have the right to waive the foregoing right to terminate this Agreement, by providing to Seller written notice of Purchaser's election to so waive such right and depositing the Additional Deposit with the Title Company, in escrow, all before 5:00 p.m., Washington, D.C. time, on the Approval Date, time being of the essence. In the event that, by such date and time, Purchaser fails to deliver any written notice to Seller whatsoever, or fails to timely and properly post the Additional Deposit with the Title Company, either such failure shall be deemed to be the election of Purchaser to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.5. If Purchaser timely terminates, or is deemed to have terminated, this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Initial Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further obligations or liability hereunder, except for the Surviving Obligations. 3.6 CONFIDENTIALITY. Purchaser agrees that, unless Seller specifically and expressly otherwise agrees in writing, the Property Documents, the Property Inspection Reports and all other documents and information regarding the Property of whatsoever nature made available to Purchaser or any Purchaser Party by Seller or any Seller Party, or in any other 12. manner obtained by Purchaser or any Purchaser Party (collectively, the "PROPRIETARY INFORMATION") are proprietary and confidential and Purchaser shall not disclose same to any other person except those of the Purchaser Parties assisting Purchaser with the transaction contemplated herein, or Purchaser's lender, if any, and then only on a need-to-know basis, and upon Purchaser making each such person aware of the confidentiality restrictions set forth herein and procuring such person's agreement to be bound thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall not be deemed to have violated the provisions of this Section 3.6 if Purchaser or any Purchaser Party is required to disclose any Proprietary Information pursuant to a judicial order validly issued and served upon Purchaser or any Purchaser Party by a court with competent jurisdiction over the Property and the Proprietary Information which is the subject of such order, if Purchaser (a) promptly, and in no event less than five (5) business days after Purchaser's or any Purchaser Party's receipt of such court order, delivers a copy of same, together with any notices or other documents which were served on Purchaser or any Purchaser Party with such court order, to Seller, and (b) cooperates in any effort (provided that neither Purchaser nor any Purchaser Party is thereby placed in breach of such court order) instituted by Seller to prevent such disclosure. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall be permitted (i) to make such disclosures to potential investors in the Property as may be recommended by Purchaser's legal counsel, and (ii) to make such other disclosures as may be recommended by Purchaser's legal counsel in order to comply with all financial reporting, securities laws and other legal requirements applicable to Purchaser. In the event the purchase and sale contemplated hereby fails to close for any reason whatsoever, Purchaser agrees to deliver to Seller, or cause to be delivered to Seller all Proprietary Information in the possession of Purchaser and any of the Purchaser Parties. Further, Purchaser agrees not to use or allow to be used any Proprietary Information for any purpose other than to determine whether Purchaser shall proceed with the contemplated purchase, or if same is consummated, in connection with the operation of the Property post-Closing. Purchaser, on behalf of itself and the other Purchaser Parties, agrees to indemnify Seller and each of the Seller Parties against all costs, claims and damages, including attorneys' fees, suffered or sustained as the result of a breach by Purchaser or any of the Purchaser Parties of the covenants contained in this Section 3.6. All obligations of Purchaser under this Section 3.6 shall be referred to as the "CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS". Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.6 shall survive Closing or the termination of this Agreement for any reason. 4. PRIOR TO CLOSING. Until Closing, Seller (or Seller's agents, on behalf of Seller) shall: 4.1 INSURANCE. Maintain Seller's existing casualty and liability insurance with respect to the Property. 4.2 OPERATION. Operate and maintain the Property substantially in accordance with Seller's past practices. 4.3 NEW CONTRACTS. Promptly upon Seller's execution thereof, but in no event later than the Approval Date, provide to Purchaser a copy of any new Contract, or of any amendment or modification to any existing Contract listed on Exhibit 3.3 attached hereto, entered into by Seller during the Due Diligence Period. Between the Approval Date and the Date of Closing, Seller will enter into only those Contracts which Seller believe are necessary to 13. carry out its obligations under Section 4.2 hereof and which shall be cancelable on not more than thirty (30) days' written notice, without the payment of any termination or other similar fee. If Seller enter into any such Contract after the Approval Date, Seller shall promptly provide written notice thereof to Purchaser and unless Purchaser, within five (5) days after such Seller's notice, notifies Seller in writing of Purchaser's intention not to assume such Contract, the Contract shall be assumed by Purchaser at Closing pursuant to Section 3.3, above. 4.4 NEW LEASES. 4.4.1 Promptly upon Seller's execution thereof, but in no event later than the Approval Date, provide to Purchaser a copy of any new Lease, or of any amendment or modification to any existing Lease listed on Exhibit 1.1.6 attached hereto, entered into by Seller during the Due Diligence Period. Between the Approval Date and the Date of Closing, Seller will not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned: (a) execute any new Leases affecting the Property, or any part thereof; (b) materially amend any existing Lease listed on Exhibit 1.1.6 attached hereto; or (c) terminate (except upon a default by the tenant thereunder) or accept the surrender of any Lease(s); PROVIDED HOWEVER, that Seller is authorized to accept the termination of Leases at the end of their existing terms and to expand, extend or renew any Leases pursuant to expansion, extension or renewal options contained therein. 4.4.2 With respect to any new Lease or lease amendment submitted by Seller to Purchaser after the Approval Date, if Purchaser (a) shall fail to either consent or to expressly withhold its consent by a written notice to Seller which specifically states the reasonable basis for Purchaser's objection within five (5) business days after Purchaser's receipt of such request; or (b) unreasonably refuses to grant its consent, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have consented to such new Lease or lease amendment. 4.5 TENANT ESTOPPELS. Between the Effective Date and the Date of Closing, Seller agrees to deliver to, and attempt to obtain from, all tenants of the Property (or any portion thereof) estoppel certificates in the form attached as Exhibit 4.5 ("ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES"). Seller shall deliver to Purchaser at Closing all Estoppel Certificates obtained by Seller from tenants of the Property. In the event that as of Closing Seller has not received Estoppel Certificates from tenants occupying at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the occupied rentable space in the Improvements, then Seller may (but shall not be required to) furnish Purchaser with certificates ("SELLER CERTIFICATES") certifying, to Seller's actual knowledge, all of the matters set forth in the form of estoppel certificate attached hereto as Exhibit 4.5 with respect to such Leases as are necessary to provide Purchaser with a combination of Estoppel Certificates and Seller Certificates for Leases covering eighty-five percent (85%) of the occupied rentable space in the Improvements. Purchaser agrees that Purchaser shall accept the Seller Certificates in lieu of the missing Estoppel Certificates. It is agreed that non-material exceptions, qualifications or modifications of any Estoppel Certificate or Seller Certificate shall not permit Purchaser to terminate this Agreement. Upon subsequent delivery to Purchaser of a missing Estoppel Certificate, Purchaser shall cancel any Seller Certificate executed in lieu thereof and return such cancelled Seller Certificate to Seller. The representations contained in any Seller Certificate shall survive the Closing to the extent set forth in, and Purchaser's remedies for breach thereof shall be subject to, the provisions set forth in Section 5.1 below, in the same manner as the representations and warranties of Seller in Section 14. 5.1. In the event that Seller is unable to obtain Estoppel Certificates from tenants occupying at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the occupied rentable space in the Improvements and Seller is unwilling to furnish Purchaser with sufficient Seller Certificates to meet the foregoing percentage, then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement and the Deposit and Performance Deposit shall thereupon be returned to Purchaser as its sole remedy. 5.

Purchaser further expressly agrees that the maximum amount for which Seller shall be liable, and for which Purchaser shall have the right to assert claims against Seller, arising out of any and all misrepresentations or breaches of warranty hereunder shall not exceed the sum of $250,000.00, in the aggregate. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that in the event that Seller disclose in writing to Purchaser, or Purchaser otherwise has actual knowledge of, at the time of or prior to Closing, any fact, information or circumstance which renders any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement untrue, incorrect or misleading in any material respect, Purchaser's sole remedy shall be to either (such election of Purchaser to be exercised on or before the Date of Closing): (i) waive its rights and claims hereunder with respect to such misrepresentation or breach of warranty, and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any reduction in the Purchase Price, or (ii) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit and the Performance Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties shall have no further obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations.

("SELLER'S BROKER"), and the payment of any fee or commission to Seller's Broker shall be subject to the terms and conditions of a separate written agreement between Seller and Seller's Broker and such fee or commission owed or alleged to be owed to Seller's Broker shall in no way be the responsibility of Purchaser. Seller and Purchaser agree that each will indemnify, defend and hold the other free and harmless from any claims arising from a breach of the foregoing representations (the "BROKER OBLIGATIONS").

In the event that any item of income or expense is prorated at Closing in error or on the basis of an estimate, or if it is determined that the parties failed to prorate an item at Closing which should have been prorated, Purchaser and Seller agree, promptly upon (but in no event later than 15 days after) discovery of such error, receipt of information indicating an incorrect proration, or determination that a pro-ratable item was not prorated, to make a further adjustment of such item(s). To the extent that either party is required to pay to the other any sum based on the foregoing post-Closing adjustments of prorated items, Purchaser and Seller each agree to make such payments within fifteen (15) days after the post-Closing adjustments have been calculated and agreed to.

General real estate taxes and special assessments relating to the Property payable during the year in which Closing occurs shall be prorated as of the Date of Closing. If Closing shall occur before the actual taxes and special assessments payable during such year are known, the apportionment of taxes shall be upon the basis of taxes for the Property payable during the immediately preceding year; PROVIDED that, if the taxes and special assessments payable during the year in which Closing occurs are thereafter determined to be more or less than the taxes payable during the preceding year (after any appeal of the assessed valuation thereof is concluded), Seller and Purchaser promptly shall adjust the proration of such taxes and special assessments, and Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall pay to the other any amount required as a result of such adjustment and this covenant shall not merge with the deed delivered hereunder but shall survive the Closing. If, as the result of an appeal of the assessed valuation of the Property for any real estate tax year prior to (or including) the Closing, there is issued after Closing an administrative ruling, judicial decision or settlement by which the assessed value of the Property for such tax year is reduced, and a real estate tax refund issued, Seller shall be entitled to all such refunds relating to the period prior to Closing, except to the extent that prior or then-existing tenants in the Improvements are entitled to a portion of same under the express provisions of their Lease(s). To the extent any tax appeals or protests have been instituted or are pending at and as of the Date of Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall execute such documents as are reasonably necessary for Purchaser to assume any such tax appeal or protest and the prosecution thereof with attorneys or consultants reasonably acceptable to Seller; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Purchaser agrees to remit to Seller within ten (10) days after receipt by Purchaser all refunds of real estate taxes obtained in connection with such tax appeal to the extent such refunds relate to the period prior to the Date of Closing, and after deducting therefrom Seller's pro rata share of attorneys fees and collection costs incurred in connection with obtaining such refunds, calculated on the basis of the number of days during the period for which such refund was issued that Seller and Purchaser, respectively, owned the Property. 6.6 CONTRACTS/PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS. Amounts due, if any, under all Contracts and the Permitted Exceptions shall be prorated as of the Date of Closing in accordance with the purposes and intent of this Agreement. 6.7 PURCHASER'S OBLIGATION TO PAY CERTAIN COSTS. At Closing, Purchaser shall assume and be solely responsible and liable for all Landlord Lease Obligations (hereinafter defined): (a) with respect to those Leases listed on Exhibit 1.1.6 attached hereto, coming due or arising after the Date of Closing, including without limitation those Landlord Lease Obligations accruing or arising as the result of the exercise by a tenant under its Lease of any expansion, extension or renewal option contained therein; and (b) with respect to any Lease entered into pursuant to Section 4.4, above, to the extent that Seller has, or as of Closing shall have, paid or contributed any sums in satisfaction of any Landlord Lease Obligations under any Lease entered 19. into pursuant to Section 4.4, above, Purchaser shall at Closing reimburse and pay to Seller all such amounts so expended by Seller in connection therewith. Purchaser shall indemnify Seller against all costs, claims and damages, including attorneys' fees, suffered or sustained as the result of Purchaser's breach of the covenants contained in this Section 6.7. At Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit in the amount of all rent and other amounts paid by tenants under any Lease entered into pursuant to Section 4.4, above. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "LANDLORD LEASE OBLIGATIONS" shall mean and include: (i) all leasing commissions and brokerage fees payable in connection with the execution of a Lease or the exercise by the tenant thereunder of any extension, renewal or expansion option, (ii) all tenant improvement allowances (if any) specified in such Lease required to be funded by the landlord thereunder, including without limitation tenant allowances required to be funded upon the exercise by a tenant under its Lease of any extension, renewal or expansion option; (iii) the cost of completing tenant improvements, if any, specified in the Lease to be performed by landlord, including without limitation tenant improvements to be performed by the landlord upon the exercise by a tenant under its Lease of any extension, renewal or expansion option; (iv) expenses incurred or to be incurred pursuant to the terms of the Lease for the purposes of satisfying or terminating the obligations of a tenant under another lease to the landlord thereunder (whether or not such other lease covers space in the Property) and any other inducement to the tenant under such Lease pursuant to the terms thereof; and (v) any costs associated with the negotiation, execution and delivery of such Lease(s), including without limitation attorneys' and consultants' fees and expenses. 6.8 ESTIMATED AMOUNTS. With respect to percentage rents based upon gross sales or other income generated by the business of a tenant located on the Property during a specific period of time (the "APPLICABLE PERIOD"), Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, shall, upon collection of such percentage rent, remit to Seller an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the percentage rent so collected by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days which have elapsed in the Applicable Period prior to the Closing and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Applicable Period. With respect to additional rent attributable to insurance, taxes, common area maintenance and other operating expenses which are passed through to tenants under the Leases (the "PASS THROUGH Expenses") which have been billed by Seller to tenants prior to the Closing but which have not yet been collected and are delinquent, such Pass Through Expenses shall be pro-rated between the parties as uncollected rent as provided in Section 6.10, below. With respect to Pass Through Expenses which (a) have been billed prior to Closing but which have not yet been collected and are not delinquent, or (b) have not been billed to tenants as of Closing, Purchaser shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to collect such amounts, and upon the collection of same, Purchaser shall remit to Seller an amount equal to that portion of Pass Through Expenses which accrued prior to Closing, after deducting therefrom Seller's pro rata share of attorneys fees and collection costs incurred in connection with recovering such Pass Through Expenses, calculated on the basis of the number of days during the period for which such Pass Through Expenses were incurred that Seller and Purchaser, respectively, owned the Property. With respect to Pass Through Expenses which have not been billed to tenants as of Closing, Purchaser shall bill each tenant for same in accordance with each such Lease. At Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall reasonably estimate the amount, if any, by which tenants in the Improvements have overpaid or underpaid their proportionate shares of operating expenses and real estate taxes through the Date 20. of Closing. If, at Closing, Purchaser and Seller determine that an overpayment by tenants exists, Purchaser shall receive a credit in the aggregate amount of such estimated overpayment. If, at Closing, Purchaser and Seller determine that an underpayment by tenants exists, Seller shall receive a credit in the aggregate amount of such estimated underpayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties shall perform a final reconciliation after Closing of such pass-through costs in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 6. Seller shall continue to be responsible for the actual amount of any overpayment and Purchaser shall be responsible for the amount of any underpayment, to the extent collected from tenants. In the event that Seller and Purchaser, after using commercially reasonable efforts to do so, are not able to agree at Closing on the estimated amount of overpayment or underpayment of operating expenses and real estate taxes, by tenants, the parties shall reconcile the proration of such pass-through costs after Closing. 6.9 UTILITY DEPOSITS. Seller shall be entitled to the return of any deposit(s) posted by it with any utility company and Seller shall pay all charges and notify each utility company serving the Property to terminate Seller's account, effective at noon on the Date of Closing. 6.10 POST-CLOSING COLLECTIONS. Upon Closing, Seller shall retain all rights in and to any rents or other amounts due for any period prior to Closing, but shall have no right to commence any legal proceedings which would, or could, result in the eviction or dispossession of a tenant from the Property. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts during the twelve (12) month period immediately following Closing to collect and promptly remit to Seller rents or other amounts due Seller for the period prior to Closing after deducting therefrom the cost of collection. In exercising commercially reasonable efforts to collect rents and other amounts due Seller as herein required, Purchaser agrees, during the entirety of the foregoing 12-month period, to bill and invoice tenants owing any such amounts to Seller on a monthly basis, and to institute the same "FOLLOW UP" actions or programs used by Purchaser to collect delinquent amounts owed by tenants to Purchaser. 6.11 IN GENERAL. Any other costs or charges of closing this transaction not specifically mentioned in this Agreement shall be paid and adjusted in accordance with local custom in the commercial real estate market in which the Property is located. 6.12 PURPOSE AND INTENT. Except as expressly provided herein, the purpose and intent as to the provisions of prorations and apportionments set forth in this Section 6 and elsewhere in this Agreement is that Seller shall bear all expenses of ownership and operation of the Property and shall receive all income therefrom accruing through midnight of the day preceding the Closing and Purchaser shall bear all such expenses and receive all such income accruing thereafter; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if Seller do not receive the Purchase Price in immediately-available funds by 1:00 p.m. Washington, D.C. time, on the Date of Closing, all adjustments and prorations shall be made as of midnight on the next business day immediately following the Date of Closing. All of the provisions contained in Section 6 of this Agreement shall survive Closing. 21. 7. DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION OR CONDEMNATION. 7.1 MATERIAL EVENT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if, prior to Closing: either (a) ten percent (10%) or more of the net rentable area of the Building is rendered completely untenantable as a result of fire, lightning or other casualty, or is permanently taken under the power of eminent domain, or (b) material access to such Building is permanently destroyed as a result of fire, lightening or other casualty or is permanently taken under the power of eminent domain, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement (a "MATERIAL EVENT TERMINATION NOTICE") within five (5) days after receiving written notice of such destruction or permanent taking from Seller. If Purchaser does not give a Material Event Termination Notice within such five (5) day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.2, in which event, this transaction shall close on the Date of Closing and Purchaser shall pay the full Purchase Price provided for in Section 2, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser the physical damage proceeds of any insurance policies payable to Seller, or Seller's portion of any condemnation award, in both cases, up to the amount of the Purchase Price, and, if an insured casualty, pay to Purchaser the amount of any deductible under Seller's insurance coverage, but not to exceed the amount of the loss. 7.2 IMMATERIAL EVENT. If, prior to Closing: (a) less than ten percent (10%) of the net rentable area of the Building is rendered completely untenantable as a result of fire, lightning or other casualty or is permanently taken under the power of eminent domain, or (b) less than material access to such Building is permanently destroyed as a result of fire, lightening or other casualty or is permanently taken under the power of eminent domain, this transaction shall close on the Date of Closing and Purchaser shall pay the full Purchase Price agreed upon in Section 2, above, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser the physical damage proceeds of any insurance policies payable to Seller, or Seller's portion of any condemnation award, in both cases, up to the amount of the Purchase Price and, if an insured casualty, pay to Purchaser the amount of any deductible under Seller's insurance coverage, but not to exceed the amount of the loss. 7.3 TERMINATION. If Purchaser timely delivers a Material Event Termination Notice pursuant to Section 7.1, above, and if Purchaser is not, on the date of such delivery, in material default under the Agreement, the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties shall have no further obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations. 8.

DEFAULT. 10.1 PURCHASER DEFAULT. If Purchaser shall fail or refuse to purchase the Property in violation of Purchaser's obligations hereunder for any reason other than a default by Seller or a failure of condition under this Agreement, or shall otherwise be in default of its obligations hereunder, Seller shall have as its sole and exclusive remedy the right to terminate this Agreement and retain the full amount of the Deposit (in addition to the Performance Deposit) and all interest earned thereon. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that (a) it would be extremely difficult to accurately determine the amount of damages suffered by Seller as a result of Purchaser's default hereunder; (b) the amount of the Deposit and the Performance Deposit constitutes a fair and reasonable amount to be received by Seller as agreed and liquidated damages for Purchaser's default under this Agreement, as well as a fair, reasonable and customary amount to be paid as liquidated damages to a seller in an arm's length transaction of the type contemplated by this Agreement upon a default by the purchaser thereunder; and (c) receipt by Seller of the Deposit (in addition to the Performance Deposit) upon Purchaser's default hereunder shall not constitute a penalty or a forfeiture. 10.2 SELLER DEFAULT. If Seller shall refuse or fail to convey the Property to Purchaser in violation of Seller's obligations hereunder for any reason other than a default by Purchaser under this Agreement, or shall otherwise be in default of its obligations hereunder, Purchaser shall have as its sole remedies hereunder the right to: (a) terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Deposit and the Performance Deposit, or (b) seek specific performance of this Agreement, or (c) waive such breach or default and proceed to Closing.

If Purchaser shall not institute an action for specific performance within sixty (60) days after the scheduled Date of Closing, time being of the essence, and Purchaser has not then elected to waive such default by Seller, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to exercise the remedy set forth in Section 10.2(a), above. 10.3 ATTORNEYS' FEES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that either Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall bring a lawsuit against the other party to enforce their respective rights under Sections 10.1 and 10.2, above, the losing party shall pay the prevailing party's costs and expenses incurred in connection with such litigation, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees.

For purposes of this Section 11.4, the term "Affiliate" shall mean: (a) an entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Purchaser, (b) any partnership in which Purchaser or Purchaser's controlling member is the general partner, or (c) any fund or entity sponsored by Purchaser. 11.5 SUCCESSORS BOUND.

Such submission shall have no binding force and effect, shall not constitute an option or an offer, and shall not confer any rights upon Purchaser or impose any obligations upon Seller irrespective of any reliance thereon, change of position or partial performance. The submission by Seller to Purchaser of this Agreement for execution by Purchaser and the actual execution thereof and delivery to Seller by Purchaser shall similarly have no binding force and effect on Seller unless and until Seller shall have executed this Agreement and the Deposit shall have been received by the Title Company. 11.13 TIME TO EXECUTE AND DELIVER.

The delivery by Seller of the Deed and the Bill of Sale to the Title Company shall be deemed to be a full performance and discharge of every agreement and obligation of Seller herein contained and expressed, all of which agreements and obligations shall merge with the Deed and Bill of Sale and thereafter be of no further force and effect, except as such are, by the express terms hereof, to survive Closing and the delivery of such instruments. 11.17 TITLE COMPANY. In performing any of its duties hereunder, the Title Company shall not incur any liability to anyone for any damages, losses or expenses, except for those arising out of its willful default, gross negligence or breach of trust, and the Title Company shall accordingly not incur any such liability with respect (a) to any action taken or omitted in good faith upon advice of its counsel, or (b) to any action taken or omitted in reliance upon any written notice or instruction provided for in this Agreement.
