consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.
Section 6. Conditions: This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement
are hereby made expressly conditioned upon fulfillment (or waiver by Buyer, whether explicit or implied) of the
following conditions:
(a) Title Examination: Buyer may, at Buyer's expense, cause a title examination to be made of the
Property at any time prior to the Closing. In the event that such title examination shall show that
Seller's title is not fee simple insurable, subject only to Permitted Exceptions, then Buyer shall
promptly notify Seller in writing of all such title defects and exceptions, in no case later than the
end of the Examination Period, and Seller shall have ten (10) days to cure said noticed defects. If
Seller does not cure the defects or objections within ten (10) days of notice thereof, then Buyer
may terminate this Agreement and receive a return of Earnest Money (notwithstanding that the
Examination Period may have expired). If Buyer is to purchase title insurance, the insuring
company must be licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is located. Title to the
Property must be insurable at regular rates, subject only to standard exceptions and Permitted
Exceptions; provided, however, that Buyer shall be required to notify Seller prior to the expiration
of the Examination Period if title to the Property is not insurable at regular rates and, if such notice
is not given prior to the Examination Period, then this requirement shall be deemed to be waived.
(b) Same Condition: If the Property is not in substantially the same condition at Closing as of the date
of the offer, reasonable wear and tear excepted, then the Buyer may (i) terminate this Agreement
and receive a return of the Earnest Money or (ii) proceed to Closing whereupon Buyer shall be
entitled to receive, in addition to the Property, any of the Seller's insurance proceeds payable on
account of the damage or destruction applicable to the Property.
(c) Inspections: Buyer, Buyer's agents, and Buyer's representatives, at Buyer's expense and at
reasonable times during normal business hours, shall have the right to enter upon the Property for
the purpose of inspecting, examining and surveying the Property; provided, however, that Buyer
shall not conduct any invasive testing of any nature without the prior express written approval of
Seller as to each specific invasive test intended to be conducted by Buyer. Buyer shall conduct all
such on -site inspections, examinations, testing, and surveying of the Property in a good and
workmanlike manner, at Buyer's expense, shall repair any damage to the Property caused by
Buyer's entry and on -site inspections and shall conduct same in a manner that does not
unreasonably interfere with Seller's or any tenant's use and enjoyment of the Property. In that
respect, Buyer shall make reasonable efforts to undertake on -site inspections outside of the hours
Seller's business is open to the public. Buyer shall provide Seller reasonable advance notice of
and Buyer shall cause its agents or representatives and third party service providers (e.g.
inspectors, surveyors, etc.) to give reasonable advance notice of any entry onto the Property.
E
Upon Seller's request, Buyer shall provide to Seller evidence of general liability insurance. Buyer
shall also have a right to review and inspect all contracts or other agreements affecting or related
directly to the Property and shall be entitled to review such books and records of Seller that relate
directly to the operation and maintenance of the Property, provided, however, that Buyer shall not
disclose any information regarding this Property unless required by law and the same shall be
regarded as confidential, to any person, except to its attorneys, accountants, lenders, and other
professional advisors, in which case Buyer shall obtain their agreement to maintain such
confidentiality. Buyer assumes all responsibility for the acts of Buyer, Buyer's agents, or Buyer's
representatives in exercising Buyer's rights under this Section 6(c) and agrees to indemnify and
hold Seller harmless from any damages resulting therefrom. This indemnification obligation of
Buyer shall survive the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement. Except as provided in
Section 6(a) above, Buyer shall have through Closing to perform the above inspections,
examinations, and testing. Buyer may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the expiration
of the Examination Period and receive a return of the Earnest Money.
(d) Exhibit C: The conditions set forth on Exhibit C shall have been satisfied. If any of the conditions
set forth on Exhibit C are not satisfied as of the Closing Date, Buyer may terminate this
Agreement and receive a return of the Earnest Money.
Section 7. Leases: Seller affirmatively represents and warrants that there are no leases, subleases, licenses,
concessions, or other agreements, written or oral, affecting the Property.
Section 8. Risk of Loss/Damage/Repair: Until Closing, the risk of loss or damage to the Property, except
as otherwise provided herein, shall be borne by Seller. Except as to maintaining the Property in its same condition,
Seller shall have no responsibility for the repair of the Property, including any improvements, unless the parties
hereto agree in writing.
Section 9. Earnest Money Disbursement: In the event that any condition hereto that is required to be
satisfied by Seller is not satisfied, then the Earnest Money shall be refunded to Buyer. In the event of breach of this
Agreement by Seller, Buyer, as its sole remedy, shall have the right to either terminate this Agreement and receive a
return of the Earnest Money or commence suit for specific performance of this Agreement. The parties agree that
Seller shall have no other liability or obligation to Buyer by reason of such breach including but not limited to
additional actual damages or consequential damages. In the event of breach of this Agreement by Buyer, Seller
shall have the right to retain the Earnest Money as liquidated damages. It is acknowledged by the parties that
payment of the Earnest Money to Seller in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Buyer is compensatory and
not punitive, such amount being a reasonable estimation of the actual loss that Seller would incur as a result of such
breach. The payment of the Earnest Money to Seller shall not constitute a penalty or forfeiture but actual
compensation for Seller's anticipated loss, both parties acknowledging the difficulty determining Seller's actual
damages for such breach.
NOTE: In the event of a dispute between Seller and Buyer over the disposition of the Earnest Money held
in escrow, the Escrow Agent shall retain the Earnest Money in the Escrow Agent's trust or escrow account until
Escrow Agent has obtained a written release from the parties consenting to its disposition or until disbursement is
ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Seller and Buyer hereby agree and acknowledge that the Escrow Agent assumes no liability in connection
with the holding of the Earnest Money pursuant hereto except for negligence or willful misconduct of Escrow
Agent. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the validity, correctness, or genuineness of any document or notice
referred to under this Agreement. Seller and Buyer hereby agree to indemnify, protect, save, and hold harmless
Escrow Agent and Escrow Agent's successors, assigns, and agents pursuant to this Agreement, from any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, actions, suits, costs, or expenses (including attorneys' fees) of
whatsoever kind or nature imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Escrow Agent that in any way relate to or
arise out of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any action taken hereunder; provided, however, that
5
Seller and Buyer shall have no such obligation to indemnify, save, and hold harmless Escrow Agent for any liability
incurred by, imposed upon, or established against Escrow Agent as a result of Escrow Agent's negligence or willful
misconduct.

be delivered the funds necessary to pay to Seller the Purchase Price. The Closing shall be conducted by Buyer's
attorney or handled in such other manner as the parties hereto may mutually agree in writing. Possession shall be
delivered at Closing, unless otherwise agreed herein, including, specifically, Section 21 hereof, free and clear of any

this Agreement shall not be disbursed until the Buyer's attorney's (or other designated settlement agent's) receipt of
authorization to disburse all necessary funds. Without limiting the foregoing, at Closing Seller shall deliver the
documents listed on Exhibit D.
Section 11. Notices: Unless otherwise provided herein, all notices and other communications that may be
