All such inspections shall be nondestructive in nature, and specifically shall not include any physically intrusive testing. All such inspections shall be performed in such a manner to minimize any interference with the business of the tenant under the Lease, and, in each case, in compliance with the rights and obligations of Seller as landlord under the Lease. Purchaser agrees that Purchaser shall make no contact with and shall not interview the tenant under the Lease without the express prior consent of Seller, which consent may be given verbally. All inspection fees, appraisal fees, engineering fees and all other costs and expenses of any kind incurred by Purchaser relating to the inspection of the Property shall be solely Purchaser’s expense. Seller reserves the right to have a representative present at the time of making any such inspection. Purchaser shall notify Seller or Seller’s agent, which notification may be given verbally, not less than two (2) Business Days in advance of making any such inspection.

(b) If the Closing is not consummated hereunder, Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller (if contractually permitted to do so) copies of all reports, surveys and other information furnished to Purchaser by third parties in connection with such inspections, provided that Purchaser is not contractually prohibited from doing so; provided further, however, that delivery of such copies and information shall be without warranty or representation whatsoever, express or implied, including, without limitation, any warranty or representation as to ownership, accuracy, adequacy or completeness thereof or otherwise. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid any contractual obligations prohibiting the delivery to Seller of copies of such reports, surveys and information. This Section 3.1(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(c) To the extent that Purchaser or any of its representatives, agents or contractors damages or disturbs the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser shall return the same to substantially the same condition which existed immediately prior to such damage or disturbance. Purchaser hereby agrees to and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all expense, loss or damage which Seller may incur (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees actually incurred) as a result of any act or omission of Purchaser or its representatives, agents or contractors, other than any expense, loss or damage to the extent arising from any act or omission of Seller during any such inspection. Said indemnification shall not extend to pre-existing conditions merely discovered by Purchaser. Said indemnification agreement shall survive the Closing, or earlier termination of this Agreement, until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations.

If the Closing contemplated hereunder fails to take place for any reason, or if Purchaser or Seller elect to terminate the inspection rights of Purchaser under the Right of Entry Agreement or this Agreement, Purchaser shall promptly return (or certify as having destroyed) all copies of materials copied from the books, records and files of Seller relating to the Properties. It is understood and agreed that Seller shall not have any obligation to obtain, commission or prepare any such books, records, files, reports or studies not now in the possession or control of Seller.

3.3. Condition of the Property.

(a) Seller recommends that Purchaser employ one or more independent engineering and/or environmental professionals to perform engineering, environmental and physical assessments on Purchaser’s behalf in respect of the Property and the condition thereof. Purchaser and Seller mutually acknowledge and agree that the Property is being sold in an “AS IS” condition and “WITH ALL FAULTS,” known or unknown, contingent or existing. Purchaser has the sole responsibility to fully inspect the Property, to investigate all matters relevant thereto, including, without limitation, the condition of the Property, and to reach its own, independent evaluation of any risks (environmental or otherwise) or rewards associated with the ownership, leasing, management and operation of the Property. Effective as of the Closing and except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser hereby waives and releases Seller and its officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, agents, affiliates, employees and successors and assigns from and against any and all claims, obligations and liabilities arising out of or in connection with the Property.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Purchaser does hereby unconditionally waive and release Seller and its officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, agents, affiliates and employees from any present or future claims and liabilities of any nature arising from or relating to the presence or alleged presence of Hazardous Substances in, on, at, from, under or about the Property or any adjacent property, including, without limitation, any claims under or on account of any Environmental Law, regardless of whether such Hazardous Substances are located in, on, at, from, under or about the Property or any adjacent property prior to or after the date hereof (collectively, “Environmental Liabilities”); provided, however, that the foregoing release as it applies to Seller, its officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, agents, affiliates and employees, shall not release Seller or its general partners or members from any Environmental Liabilities of (i) Seller relating to any Hazardous Substances which may be placed, located or released on the Property by Seller after the date of Closing, or (ii) the general partners or members of Seller relating to any Hazardous Substances which may be placed, located or released on the Property by Seller after the date of Closing. The terms and provisions of this Section 3.3 shall survive the Closing.

3.4. Title and Survey. Seller shall provide Purchaser with a preliminary title commitment with respect to the Property (“Title Commitment”) for the issuance by Chicago Title Insurance Company of a title policy in favor of Purchaser in ALTA-B form, with extended coverage and the following endorsements (to the extent issued in Tennessee): survey, access, zoning (with parking), tax lot, and subdivision. Seller shall obtain and deliver to Purchaser an update to the Existing Survey (such update, the “Survey”). Copies of the Survey and any updates or revisions to the same shall be made available concurrently to Seller and Purchaser. Purchaser shall have until the later to occur of (i) five (5) Business Days prior to the end of the Inspection Period, or (ii) three (3) Business Days after the last to occur of Purchaser’s receipt of the Survey and Purchaser’s receipt of the Title Commitment to give written notice (the “First Title Notice”) to Seller’s Counsel of such objections as Purchaser may have to any exceptions to title disclosed in the Title Commitment or in the Survey or otherwise in Purchaser’s examination of title. From time to time at any time after the First Title Notice and prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser may give written notice (a “Subsequent Title Notice”) to Seller’s Counsel of

exceptions to title first appearing of record with respect to the Property after the effective date of the most recent previous Title Commitment or updated Title Commitment or matters of survey which matters of record or matters of survey would not have been disclosed by an accurate updated examination of title or preparation of an updated ALTA survey prior to date of the initial Title Commitment or the initial Survey. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as to Monetary Objections), to attempt to remove, satisfy or otherwise cure any exceptions to title to which the Purchaser so objects. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Purchaser’s First Title Notice, Seller shall give written notice to Purchaser’s Counsel informing the Purchaser of the election of Seller with respect to the objections in the First Title Notice. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of any Subsequent Title Notice, Seller shall give written notice to Purchaser’s Counsel informing the Purchaser of the election of Seller with respect to the objections in such Subsequent Title Notice. If Seller fails to give written notice of election within such five (5) Business Day period, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to attempt to cure the objections (other than Monetary Objections) set forth in the First Title Notice or such Subsequent Title Notice, whichever is applicable. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any objections, Seller shall be entitled to one or more reasonable adjournments of the Closing of up to but not beyond the thirtieth (30^th) day following the initial date set for the Closing to attempt such cure, but, except for Monetary Objections, Seller shall not be obligated to expend any sums, commence any suits or take any other action to effect such cure. Except as to Monetary Objections, if Seller elects, or is deemed to have elected, not to cure any exceptions to title to which Purchaser has objected or if, after electing to attempt to cure, Seller determines that it is unwilling or unable to remove, satisfy or otherwise cure any such exceptions, Purchaser’s sole remedy hereunder in such event shall be either (i) to accept title to the Property subject to such exceptions as if Purchaser had not objected thereto and without reduction of the Purchase Price, (ii) if such exceptions are matters first appearing of record or first disclosed by any Survey or updated Title Commitment after the date of this Agreement, to terminate this Agreement, or (iii) to terminate this Agreement within three (3) Business Days after receipt of written notice from Seller either of the election of Seller not to attempt to cure any objection or of the determination of Seller, having previously elected to attempt to cure, that Seller is unable or unwilling to do so, or three (3) Business Days after Seller is deemed hereunder to have elected not to attempt to cure such objections (and upon any such termination under clause (ii) or (iii) above, Escrow Agent shall return the Earnest Money to Purchaser). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, Seller shall be obligated to cure or satisfy all Monetary Objections at or prior to Closing, and may use the proceeds of the Purchase Price at Closing for such purpose.

3.5. Service Contracts. On or before the last day of the Inspection Period, Purchaser will designate in a written notice to Seller which Service Contracts Purchaser will assume and which Service Contracts will be terminated by Seller at Closing; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated to terminate, and Purchaser shall assume the obligations of Seller arising from and after Closing under, all Service Contracts which cannot be terminated by Seller upon no more than thirty (30) days prior notice or which can be terminated by Seller only upon payment of a fee, premium, penalty or other form of early termination compensation; further provided, however, that if such written notice from Purchaser designating which Service Contracts are to be terminated by Seller at Closing is given less than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, then Seller shall give notice under those Service Contracts which can be terminated by Seller upon no more than thirty (30) days prior notice without payment of a fee, premium, penalty or other form of early termination compensation (the “Late Notice Service Contracts”), and, in addition to assuming the obligations of Seller first accruing on or after

Closing under all Service Contracts which cannot be terminated by Seller upon no more than thirty (30) days prior notice or which can be terminated by Seller only upon payment of a fee, premium, penalty or other form of early termination compensation, Purchaser shall assume the obligations of Seller first accruing on or after Closing under the Late Notice Service Contracts through the effective date of such termination thereof; provided further, however, Seller shall be required to terminate all Service Contracts which are with any Seller-Related Entities. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Purchaser hereby irrevocably elects to assume at Closing all Service Contracts set forth on EXHIBIT “K” attached hereto. Subject to the foregoing, and taking into account any credits or prorations to be made pursuant to Article 5 hereof for payments coming due after Closing but accruing prior to Closing, Purchaser will assume the obligations arising from and after the Closing Date under those Service Contracts which Purchaser has designated will not be terminated. Subject to the foregoing, Seller, without cost to Purchaser, shall terminate at Closing all Service Contracts that are not so assumed. If Purchaser fails to notify Seller in writing on or before the last day of the Inspection Period of any Service Contracts that Purchaser does not desire to assume at Closing, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to assume all such Service Contracts and to have waived its right to require Seller to terminate such Service Contracts at Closing.

3.6. Termination of Agreement. Purchaser shall have until the expiration of the Inspection Period to determine, in Purchaser’s sole opinion and discretion, the suitability of the Property for acquisition by Purchaser or Purchaser’s permitted assignee. Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time on or before said time and date of expiration of the Inspection Period by giving written notice to Seller of such election to terminate. If Purchaser so elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.6, Escrow Agent shall pay the Earnest Money to Purchaser, whereupon, except for those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement, no party hereto shall have any other or further rights or obligations under this Agreement. If Purchaser fails to so terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall have no further right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.6.

3.7. Confidentiality. All information acquired by Purchaser or any of its designated representatives (including by way of example, but not in limitation, the officers, directors, shareholders and employees of Purchaser, and Purchaser’s engineers, consultants, counsel and potential lenders, and the officers, directors, shareholders and employees of each of them) with respect to the Property, whether delivered by Seller or any representatives of Seller or obtained by Purchaser as a result of its inspection and investigation of the Property, examination of the books, records and files of Seller in respect of the Property, or otherwise (collectively, the “Due Diligence Material”) shall be used solely for the purpose of determining whether the Property is suitable for Purchaser’s acquisition and ownership thereof and for no other purpose whatsoever. Prior to Closing, the terms and conditions which are contained in this Agreement and all Due Diligence Material which is not published as public knowledge or which is not generally available in the public domain shall be kept in strict confidence by Purchaser and shall not be disclosed to any individual or entity other than to those authorized representatives of Purchaser and Purchaser’s prospective and actual counsel, accountants, professionals, consultants, attorneys and lenders, who need to know the information for the purpose of assisting Purchaser in evaluating the Property for Purchaser’s potential acquisition thereof; provided, however, that Purchaser shall have the right to disclose any such information if required by applicable law or as may be necessary in connection with any court action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement. Purchaser shall and hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and

against any and all loss, liability, cost, damage or expense that Seller may suffer or incur (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred) as a result of the unpermitted disclosure of any of the Due Diligence Material to any individual or entity other than an appropriate representative of Purchaser and Purchaser’s prospective and actual counsel, accountants, professionals, consultants, attorneys and lenders and/or the use of any Due Diligence Material for any purpose other than as herein contemplated and permitted. The foregoing indemnity shall not extend to disclosure of any Due Diligence Material (i) as may be required by applicable law, or (ii) that is or becomes public knowledge other than by virtue of a breach of Purchaser’s covenant under this Section 3.7. If Purchaser or Seller elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof permitting such termination, or if the Closing contemplated hereunder fails to occur for any reason, Purchaser will promptly return to Seller all Due Diligence Material in the possession of Purchaser and any of its representatives, and destroy all copies, notes or abstracts or extracts thereof, as well as all copies of any analyses, compilations, studies or other documents prepared by Purchaser or for its use (whether in written or electronic form) containing or reflecting any Due Diligence Material. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Purchaser or any of its representatives of this Section 3.7, Seller shall be entitled, in addition to other available remedies, to an injunction restraining Purchaser or its representatives from disclosing, in whole or in part, any of the Due Diligence Material and any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting or limiting Seller from pursuing any other available remedy, in law or in equity, for such breach or threatened breach. The provisions of this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

If Purchaser fails to notify Seller in writing of its approval or disapproval within said five (5) Business Day period, such failure by Purchaser shall be deemed to be the approval of Purchaser. After the end of the Inspection Period, Seller shall not enter into any lease affecting the Property, or modify or amend in any respect, or terminate the existing Lease without Purchaser’s prior written consent in each instance, which consent may be withheld in Purchaser’s sole discretion.

(b) New Contracts. During the pendency of this Agreement, Seller will not enter into any contract, or modify, amend, renew or extend any existing contract, that will be an obligation affecting the Property or any part thereof subsequent to the Closing without Purchaser’s prior written consent in each instance (which Purchaser agrees not to withhold or delay unreasonably), except contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business that are terminable without cause (and without penalty or premium) on thirty (30) days (or less) notice.

(c) Operation of Property. During the pendency of this Agreement, Seller shall continue to operate the Property in a good and businesslike fashion consistent with Seller’s past practices.

Seller shall endeavor in good faith (but without obligation to incur any cost or expense) to obtain and deliver to Purchaser, prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, a written Tenant Estoppel Certificate in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT “L-1” signed by the tenant under the Lease; provided that delivery of such signed Tenant Estoppel Certificate shall be a condition of Closing only to the extent set forth in Section 6.1(c) hereof; and in no event shall the inability or failure of Seller to obtain and deliver said Tenant Estoppel Certificate (Seller having used its good faith efforts as set forth above as to the tenant under Lease) be a default of Seller hereunder.

(g) SNDA.

(h) Management Agreement. Following the expiration of the Inspection Period and prior to Closing, Seller agrees to give written notice to the Property Manager of termination of the Management Agreement, such termination to be effective only in the event of the closing of the purchase and sale of the Property; provided, however, that Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Section 7.1(b) of the Management Agreement provides that the effective date of the termination of the engagement of Property Manager is the last day of the calendar month occurring at least thirty (30) days after the delivery of written notice of termination; therefore, Purchaser shall assume the obligations of Seller first accruing on or after Closing under the Management Agreement through the effective date of such termination thereof. Following the expiration of the Inspection Period and prior to Closing, Purchaser shall have the right to negotiate in good faith a new property management agreement and related agreements with the Property Manager, using Purchaser’s standard forms for same and incorporating the same or substantially equivalent economic terms as the Management Agreement.

The delivery of said Tenant Estoppel Certificate from the tenant under the Lease shall be a condition of Closing, and the failure or inability of Seller to obtain and deliver said Tenant Estoppel Certificate, Seller having used its good faith efforts to obtain the same from the tenant under the Lease, shall not constitute a default by Seller under this Agreement; and

In the event any condition in this Section 6.1 has not been satisfied (or otherwise waived in writing by Purchaser) prior to or on the Closing Date (as the same may be extended or postponed as provided in this Agreement), Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller given prior to the Closing, whereupon (i) Escrow Agent shall return the Earnest Money to Purchaser; and (ii) except for those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement, no party hereto shall have any other or further rights or obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 7.

CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

7.1. Casualty. Risk of loss up to and including the Closing Date shall be borne by Seller. In the event of any immaterial damage or destruction to the Property or any portion thereof, Seller and Purchaser shall proceed to close under this Agreement, and Purchaser will receive (and Seller will assign to Purchaser at the Closing Seller’s rights under insurance policies to receive) any insurance proceeds (including any rent loss insurance applicable to any period on and after the Closing Date) due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction (less any amounts reasonably expended for restoration or collection of proceeds) and assume responsibility for such repair, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible amount under said insurance policies. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “immaterial damage or destruction” shall mean such instances of damage or destruction of the Property: (i) which can be repaired or restored at a cost of $250,000.00 or less; (ii) which can be restored and repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of such damage or destruction; (iii) which are not so extensive as to allow the tenant under the Lease to terminate the Lease or abate or reduce rent payable thereunder (unless business loss or rent insurance shall be available in the full amount of such abatement or reduction, subject to applicable deductibles) on account of such damage or destruction; and (iv) in which Seller’s rights under its rent loss insurance policies covering the Property are assignable to Purchaser and will continue pending restoration and repair of the damage or destruction.

In the event of any material damage or destruction to the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by notice to Seller given within the earlier of twenty (20) days after Purchaser is notified by Seller of such damage or destruction, or the Closing Date, but in no event less than ten (10) days after Purchaser is notified by Seller of such damage or destruction (and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give Purchaser the full 10-day period to make such election): (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Earnest Money to Purchaser, or (ii) proceed to close under this Agreement, receive (and Seller will assign to Purchaser at the Closing the rights of Seller under insurance policies to receive) any insurance proceeds (including any rent loss insurance applicable to the period on or after the Closing Date) due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction (less any amounts reasonably expended for restoration or collection of proceeds), and assume responsibility for such repair, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible amount under said insurance policies. If Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller notice of its election within the period set forth above, Purchaser will conclusively be deemed to have elected to proceed with the Closing as provided in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. If Purchaser elects clause (ii) above, Seller will cooperate with Purchaser after the Closing to assist Purchaser in obtaining the insurance proceeds from the insurers of Seller. For purposes of this Agreement “material damage or destruction” shall mean all instances of damage or destruction that are not immaterial, as defined herein.

7.2. Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of the Property is subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation by a body having the power of eminent domain or is taken by eminent domain or condemnation (or sale in lieu thereof), or if Seller has received written notice that any condemnation action or proceeding with respect to the Property is

contemplated by a body having the power of eminent domain (collectively, a “Taking”), Seller shall give Purchaser immediate written notice of such Taking. In the event of any immaterial Taking with respect to the Property or any portion thereof, Seller and Purchaser shall proceed to close under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “immaterial Taking” shall mean such instances of Taking of the Property: (i) which do not result in a taking of any portion of the building structure of the building occupied by tenant on the Property; (ii) which do not result in a decrease in the number of parking spaces at the Property (taking into account the number of additional parking spaces that can be provided within 180 days of such Taking); and (iii) which are not so extensive as to allow the tenant under the Lease to terminate the Lease or abate or reduce rent payable thereunder [unless business loss or rent insurance (subject to applicable deductibles) or condemnation award proceeds shall be available in the full amount of such abatement or reduction, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for such deductible amount] on account of such Taking.

In the event of any material Taking of the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by written notice to Seller given within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice from Seller, elect to terminate this Agreement. If Purchaser chooses to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 7.2, then the Earnest Money shall be returned immediately to Purchaser by Escrow Agent and the rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities of the parties hereunder shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect, except for those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement “material Taking “ shall mean all instances of a Taking that are not immaterial, as defined herein.

If Purchaser does not elect to, or has no right to, terminate this Agreement in accordance herewith on account of a Taking, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the sale of the Property contemplated by this Agreement, less any interest taken by eminent domain or condemnation, or sale in lieu thereof, shall be effected with no further adjustment and without reduction of the Purchase Price, and at the Closing, Seller shall assign, transfer, and set over to Purchaser all of the right, title, and interest of Seller in and to any awards applicable to the Property that have been or that may thereafter be made for such taking. At such time as all or a part of the Property is subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation and Purchaser shall not have elected to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 7.2, and provided that the Inspection Period has expired, (i) Purchaser shall thereafter be permitted to participate in the proceedings as if Purchaser were a party to the action, and (ii) Seller shall not settle or agree to any award or payment pursuant to condemnation, eminent domain, or sale in lieu thereof without obtaining Purchaser’s prior written consent thereto in each case.

ARTICLE 8.

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

8.1. Purchaser’s Default. If Purchaser fails to consummate this transaction for any reason other than the default of Seller, failure of a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close, or the exercise by Purchaser of an express right of termination granted herein, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole remedy hereunder, to terminate this Agreement and to receive and retain the Earnest Money as full liquidated damages for such default of Purchaser, the parties hereto acknowledging that it is impossible to estimate more precisely the damages which might be suffered by Seller upon Purchaser’s default, and that said Earnest Money is a reasonable estimate of the probable loss of Seller in the event of default by Purchaser. The retention by Seller of said

Earnest Money is intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages. The right to retain the Earnest Money as full liquidated damages is the sole and exclusive remedy of Seller in the event of default hereunder by Purchaser, and Seller hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenant that it shall not) sue the Purchaser: (a) for specific performance of this Agreement, or (b) to recover actual damages in excess of the Earnest Money. The foregoing liquidated damages provision shall not apply to or limit Purchaser’s liability for Purchaser’s obligations under Sections 3.1(b), 3.1(c), 3.7 and 10.1 of this Agreement or for Purchaser’s obligation to pay to Seller all attorney’s fees and costs of Seller to enforce the provisions of this Section 8.1. Purchaser hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) sue Seller or seek or claim a refund of said Earnest Money (or any part thereof) on the grounds it is unreasonable in amount and exceeds the actual damages of Seller or that its retention by Seller constitutes a penalty and not agreed upon and reasonable liquidated damages.

8.2. Seller’s Default. If Seller fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement for any reason other than Purchaser’s default or the permitted termination of this Agreement by Seller or Purchaser as expressly provided herein, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, either (a) to receive the return of the Earnest Money from Escrow Agent, which return shall operate to terminate this Agreement and release Seller from any and all liability hereunder; provided, however, that in the event, and only in the event, such default by Seller was willful and intentional and Purchaser receives the return of the Earnest Money, then Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the lesser of (i) Purchaser’s actual out-of-pocket expenditures incurred directly in conducting due diligence activities contemplated under this Agreement and in negotiating and finalizing this Agreement, or (ii) Thirty Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($35,000.00), or (b) to enforce specific performance of the obligation of Seller to execute and deliver the documents required to convey the Property to Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement; it being specifically understood and agreed that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if after the Effective Date and prior to the termination of this Agreement, Seller shall have conveyed title to the Property to another party or intentionally and knowingly taken any other action to defeat the remedy of specific performance, Purchaser shall be entitled to seek actual damages from Seller. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Section 8.2, Purchaser expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event of the default of Seller hereunder. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and to receive a return of the Earnest Money from Escrow Agent if Purchaser fails to file suit for specific performance against Seller in a court having jurisdiction, on or before sixty (60) days following the date upon which the Closing was to have occurred.

ARTICLE 9.

ASSIGNMENT

9.1. Assignment. Subject to the next following sentence, this Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable by any party without the written consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, this Agreement and all of Purchaser’s rights hereunder may be transferred and assigned to any entity controlled by Purchaser or one or more of Purchaser’s joint venture partners. Any assignee or transferee under any such assignment or transfer by Purchaser as to which the written consent of Seller has been given or as to which the consent of Seller is not required hereunder shall expressly assume all of Purchaser’s duties, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement (whether arising or accruing prior to or after the assignment or transfer) by written instrument delivered to Seller as a

condition to the effectiveness of such assignment or transfer. No assignment or transfer shall relieve the original Purchaser of any duties or obligations hereunder, and the written assignment and assumption agreement shall expressly so provide. For purposes of this Section 9.1, the term “control” shall mean the ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) of the applicable entity. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to create any rights in or to be enforceable in any part by any other persons.

ARTICLE 10.

BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS

10.1. Broker. Upon the Closing, and only in the event the Closing occurs, Seller shall pay a brokerage commission to Bullock Mannelly Partners, Inc. (“Broker”), a Georgia corporation, pursuant to a separate agreement between Seller and Broker, and Broker shall pay a brokerage commission to Colliers Cauble & Co.

ARTICLE 11.

Following the Closing and subject to Sections 11.3 and 11.4, Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser, its affiliates, members and partners, and the partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, “Purchaser-Related Entities”) harmless from and against any and all costs, fees, expenses, damages, deficiencies, interest and penalties (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) suffered or incurred by any such indemnified party in connection with any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses (“Losses”), arising out of, or in any way relating to, (a) any breach of any representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any Closing Document, and (b) any breach of any covenant of Seller contained in this Agreement which survives the Closing or in any Closing Document.

Following the Closing and subject to Sections 11.3 and 11.4, Purchaser (and Purchaser’s joint venture partners to whom any rights of Purchaser are assigned pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof) shall indemnify and hold Seller, its affiliates, members and partners, and the partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, “Seller-Related Entities”) harmless from any and all Losses arising out of, or in any way relating to, (a) any breach of any representation or warranty by Purchaser contained in this Agreement or in any Closing Document, and (b) any breach of any covenant of Purchaser contained in this Agreement which survives the Closing or in any Closing Documents.

12.3. Time Periods. If the time period by which any right, option, or election provided under this Agreement must be exercised, or by which any act required hereunder must be performed, or by which the Closing must be held, expires on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday, then such time period shall be automatically extended through the close of business on the next regularly scheduled Business Day.

12.4. Publicity. The parties agree that, prior to Closing, and except for disclosures required by law or governmental regulations applicable to such party, no party shall, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, contact or conduct negotiations with public officials, make any public announcements or issue press releases regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to any third party without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. No party shall record this Agreement or any notice hereof.

12.6. Severability. This Agreement is intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall, for any reason and to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby but rather shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.

12.7. Construction. This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the fact that this Agreement may have been prepared by counsel for one of the parties, it being mutually acknowledged and agreed that Seller and Purchaser and their respective counsel have contributed substantially and materially to the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. Accordingly, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits or amendments hereto.

12.8. Sale Notification Letters. Promptly following the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver the Tenant Notice of Sale to the tenant under the Lease, and the Other Notices of Sale to each service provider and leasing agent, the obligations under whose respective Service Contracts and Commission Agreements Purchaser has assumed at Closing.

Purchaser agrees that for a period of twenty four (24) months following the Closing, Seller shall have the right during regular business hours, on five (5) days’ written notice to Purchaser, to examine and review at Purchaser’s office (or, at Purchaser’s election, at the Property), the books and records of Seller relating to the ownership and operation of the Property which were delivered by Seller to Purchaser at the Closing. Likewise, Seller agrees that for a period of twenty four (24) months following the Closing, Purchaser shall have the right during regular business hours, on five (5) days’ written notice to Seller, to examine and review at Seller’s office, all books, records and files, if any, retained by Seller relating to the ownership and operation by Seller prior to the Closing of the Property. The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing for a period of twenty four (24) months year after the Closing Date.

12.10. Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of Purchaser and Seller irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of (a) the Chancery Court of Knox County, Tennessee located in Knoxville, Tennessee, and (b) the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Each of Purchaser and Seller further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in Georgia with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above in the immediately preceding sentence. Each of Purchaser and Seller irrevocably and unconditionally waives trial by jury and irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in (a) the Chancery Court of Knox County, Tennessee located in Knoxville, Tennessee, and (b) the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

12.11. General Provisions. No failure of either party to exercise any power given hereunder or to insist upon strict compliance with any obligation specified herein, and no custom or practice at variance with the terms hereof, shall constitute a waiver of either party’s right to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties hereto, and no representations, inducements, promises, or agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties not embodied herein shall be of any force or effect. Any amendment to this Agreement shall not be binding upon Seller or Purchaser unless such amendment is in writing and executed by Seller and Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.1 hereof, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and permitted assigns. Time is of the essence in this Agreement. The headings inserted at the beginning of each paragraph are for convenience only, and do not add to or subtract from the meaning of the contents of each paragraph. This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Tennessee. Except as otherwise provided herein, all rights, powers, and privileges conferred hereunder upon the parties shall be cumulative but not restrictive to those given by law. All personal pronouns used in this Agreement, whether used in the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender shall include all genders, and all references herein to the singular shall include the plural and vice versa.

12.12. Like-Kind Exchange. The parties hereto desire, and each other party is willing to cooperate (subject to the limitations set forth below), to effectuate the sale of the Property by means of an exchange of “like-kind” property which will qualify as such under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder. Each party expressly reserves the right to assign its rights, but not its obligations, hereunder to a qualified intermediary as provided in I.R.C. Reg. 1.1031(k)-1(g)(4) on or before the date of Closing. Upon written notice from any party (a “Requesting Party”) to the other, the party to whom such notice is given (the “Other Party”) agrees to cooperate with such Requesting Party to effect one or more like-kind exchanges with respect to the Property, provided that such cooperation shall be subject to the following conditions: (a) such exchange shall not delay the Closing and shall occur either simultaneously with the Closing or the purchase money proceeds payable to Seller shall be paid, upon Seller’s prior written direction to Purchaser, to a third party escrow agent or intermediary such that Purchaser shall not be required to participate in any

subsequent closing, (b) Purchaser shall not be obligated to spend any sums or incur any expenses in excess of the sums and expenses which would have been spent or incurred by Purchaser if there had been no exchange, and (c) Purchaser shall not be obligated to acquire or accept title to any property other than the Property. Purchaser makes no representation or warranty that the conveyance of the Property by Seller to Purchaser shall qualify for a like-kind exchange. Once Purchaser has paid the purchase money proceeds as directed by Seller, it shall have no further obligation hereunder with respect to such “like-kind” exchange. Seller, as the owner of the Property which is the subject of a “like-kind” exchange as described herein, hereby indemnifies and holds Purchaser harmless from and against any costs, liabilities and expenses incurred or suffered by Purchaser in connection with the “like-kind” exchange or exchanges described herein with respect to the Property, which indemnity shall survive the Closing until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations.

12.13. Attorney’s Fees. If Purchaser or Seller brings an action at law or equity against the other in order to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or as a result of an alleged default under this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to recover court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees actually incurred from the other.

12.14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same original. To facilitate the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the parties may execute and exchange counterparts of the signature pages by facsimile, and the signature page of either party to any counterpart may be appended to any other counterpart.

12.15. Effective Agreement. The submission of this Agreement for examination is not intended to nor shall constitute an offer to sell, or a reservation of, or option or proposal of any kind for the purchase of the Property. In no event shall any draft of this Agreement create any obligation or liability, it being understood that this Agreement shall be effective and binding only when a counterpart of this Agreement has been executed and delivered by each party hereto.

FORM OF ESCROW AGREEMENT

THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), made and entered into this 22^nd day of February 2005, by and among LEXINGTON CORPORATE PROPERTIES TRUST, a Maryland statutory real estate investment trust (hereinafter referred to as “Purchaser”), and THE FUND IX, FUND X, FUND XI, and REIT JOINT VENTURE, a Georgia joint venture (hereinafter referred to as “Seller”), and CHICAGO TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY (hereinafter referred to as “Escrow Agent”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Purchaser and Seller have entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of February 22, 2005 (the “Effective Date”), as to Purchaser (hereinafter referred to as the “Contract”); and

WHEREAS, Section 2.3 of the Contract provides for Purchaser’s payment to Escrow Agent, within two business days after the Effective Date, of Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) as Earnest Money (as defined in the Contract) to be held and applied by said Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to set forth the terms and conditions of Escrow Agent’s holding, investment and disbursement of the Escrow Funds (as hereinafter defined).

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the agreements set forth in the Contract and the mutual covenants set forth herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. Escrow Agent shall give written notice to Purchaser and Seller within one (1) business day after Escrow Agent actually receives from Purchaser a federal funds wire transfer, payable to the order of Escrow Agent, in the amount of Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000.00). In the event that Escrow Agent does not receive such wire transfer on or before the date two (2) business days after the Effective Date, Escrow Agent shall so notify Purchaser and Seller in writing, whereupon this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect. In the event Escrow Agent does receive from Purchaser a federal funds wire transfer, payable to the order of Escrow Agent, in the amount of Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000.00), on or before the date two (2) business days after the Effective Date, said Earnest Money, together with all interest and other income earned thereon (being herein referred to as the “Escrow Funds”), shall be held, administered, and disbursed by Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the Contract. Escrow Agent shall invest the Escrow Funds in a money market account with a national banking association or other bank acceptable to Seller and Purchaser in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area. All interest or other income shall be earned for the account of Purchaser and shall be held, invested and disbursed as a part of the Escrow Funds hereunder. Purchaser’s Federal Identification Number for purposes of this Agreement is ###-###-####. Seller’s Federal Identification Number for purposes of this Agreement is ###-###-####. Escrow Agent’s fee, if any, for services rendered hereunder shall be paid one half by Purchaser and one half by Seller.

2. At such time as Escrow Agent receives written notice from either Purchaser, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, or both, setting forth the identity of the party to whom such Escrow Funds (or portions thereof) are to be disbursed and further setting forth the specific section or paragraph of the Contract pursuant to which the disbursement of such Escrow Funds (or portions thereof) is being requested, Escrow Agent shall disburse such Escrow Funds pursuant to such notice; provided, however, that if such notice is given by either Purchaser or Seller but not both, Escrow Agent shall (i) promptly notify the other party (either Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be) that Escrow Agent has received a request for disbursement, and (ii) withhold disbursement of such Escrow Funds for a period of ten (10) days after receipt of such notice of disbursement and if Escrow Agent receives written notice from either Purchaser, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, within said ten (10) day period which notice countermands the earlier notice of disbursement, then Escrow Agent shall withhold such disbursement until both Purchaser and Seller can agree upon a disbursement of such Escrow Funds. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to send to the other, pursuant to Paragraph 6 below, a duplicate copy of any written notice sent to Escrow Agent and requesting any such disbursement or countermanding a request for disbursement.

3. In performing any of its duties hereunder, Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability to anyone for any damages, losses, or expenses, except for willful default, gross negligence, fraud or breach of trust, and it shall accordingly not incur any such liability with respect to (i) any action taken or omitted in good faith upon advice of its legal counsel given with respect to any questions relating to the duties and responsibilities of Escrow Agent under this Agreement, or (ii) any action taken or omitted in reliance upon any instrument, including any written notice or instruction provided for in this Agreement, not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine, to have been signed or presented by a proper person or persons, and to conform with the provisions of this Agreement.

4. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 2 above, in the event of a dispute between Purchaser and Seller sufficient in the sole discretion of Escrow Agent to justify its doing so or in the event that Escrow Agent has not disbursed the Escrow Funds on or before the date which is six (6) months from the date hereof, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to tender the Escrow Funds into the registry or custody of any court of competent jurisdiction, together with such legal pleadings as it may deem appropriate, and thereupon be discharged from all further duties and liabilities under this Agreement. Any such legal action may be brought in such court as Escrow Agent shall determine to have jurisdiction thereof.

5. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable and actual costs of investigation and legal counsel fees, which may be imposed upon Escrow Agent or incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, including, without limitation, any litigation arising from this Agreement or involving the subject matter hereof.

6. Wherever any notice or other communication is required or permitted hereunder, such notice or other communication shall be in writing and shall be delivered by overnight courier, hand delivery, or sent by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,

1. The Seller is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations);

2. Seller is not a disregarded entity as defined in §1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Income Tax Regulations;

3. The Seller’s U.S. employer identification number is ; and

4. The Seller’s office address is 6200 The Corners Parkway, Atlanta, Georgia 30092.

The undersigned understands that this Certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by transferee and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

This Certificate is made with the knowledge that , a , will rely upon this Certificate in purchasing that certain real property from Seller more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto.

Under penalties of perjury I declare that I have examined this Certification and to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is true, correct and complete, and I further declare that I have authority to sign this document on behalf of the Seller.
