review the Title Commitment, Exception Documents, Search Reports and Survey for
a period of 30 days from the date of Purchaser's receipt of the last of such
items (the 'Review Period'). In the event any matters appear therein that are
unacceptable to Purchaser, Purchaser shall, within the Review Period notify
Seller in writing of such fact. Upon the expiration of said Review Period,
Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted all exceptions to title referenced
in the Title Commitment and all matters shown on the Survey except for matters
which are the subject of a notification made under the preceding sentence, and
such accepted exceptions shall be included in the term 'Permitted Exceptions'
as used herein; provided that in no event shall any of the items listed on
Schedule B-1 or C of the Title Commitment constitute Permitted Exceptions for
purposes hereof.  In the event that Purchaser objects to any such matters
within the Review Period, Seller shall have 30 days from receipt of such notice
within which to eliminate or modify any such unacceptable exceptions or items.
In the event that Seller is unable or unwilling to eliminate or modify such
unacceptable items to the satisfaction of Purchaser on or before the expiration
of said 30-day period, Purchaser may either (a) waive such objections and
accept title to the Property subject to such unacceptable items (which items
shall then be deemed to constitute part of the 'Permitted Exceptions'), or (b)
terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, whereupon this Agreement
shall automatically be rendered null and void, all moneys which have been
delivered by Purchaser to Seller or the Title Company (other than the
Independent Consideration) shall be immediately returned to Purchaser, and

the other hereunder.

the Title Commitment, Exception Documents, Survey or Search Reports are
modified (other than the deletion or elimination of any item as to which
Purchaser has made an objection), Purchaser shall have the right to review and
approve or disapprove any such modification and to terminate this Agreement in
the event that Seller is unable or unwilling to eliminate any such matters to
the satisfaction of Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.2
above, except that Purchaser's Review Period as to such additional items shall
be for a period expiring on the date that is the earlier to occur of (a) 15
days following the date of Purchaser's receipt of such modification, and (b)
the Closing Date, and all other time periods referred to in Section 5.2 shall
expire on the date that is the earlier of (i) the final day of the specified
time period as set forth therein, and (ii) the Closing Date.

                                       8

execution by Seller of this Agreement and the consummation by Seller of the
transactions contemplated hereby do not, and at the Closing will not, result in
a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default or a
condition which upon notice or lapse of time or both would ripen into a default
under any indenture, agreement, instrument or obligation to which Seller is a
party or by which the Property or any portion thereof is bound; and does not
and at the Closing will not, constitute a violation of any order, rule or
regulation applicable to Seller or any portion of the Property of any court or
of any federal or state or municipal regulatory body or administrative agency
or other governmental body having jurisdiction over Seller or any portion of
the Property.

                 (c)      Without the benefit of any independent investigation
or estoppel certificates from any of the Tenants, there are no adverse or other
parties in possession of the Property or of any part thereof except the

Leases delivered to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.  No party has been
granted any license, lease or other right relating to the use or possession of
the Property, except Tenants under Tenant Leases which have been delivered to
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

                 (d)      Each Tenant Lease, if any, furnished to Purchaser
pursuant to this Agreement is in full force and effect and has not been
materially amended, modified or supplemented in any way that has not been
disclosed to Purchaser in writing.  The Tenant Leases, if any, furnished to
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement constitute all material written and oral
agreements of any kind for the leasing, rental or occupancy of any portion of
the Property.  No material default or breach on the part of the Seller as
landlord or Tenant exists under any of the Tenant Leases.  All material Tenant
improvements, repairs and other work and obligations, if any, then required to
be performed by the landlord under each of the Tenant Leases will be fully
performed and paid for in full on or prior to the Closing.  Seller has not,
except as disclosed to Purchaser in writing, accepted the payment of rent or
other sums due under any of the Tenant Leases for more than one month in

other charges payable thereunder, if any, have been assigned, pledged or
encumbered by Seller.

compensation will be due or payable to any person, firm, corporation or other
entity with respect to, or on account of, any Tenant Lease or any extensions or
renewals thereof, if any, excepting those agreements entered into or accepted
in writing by Purchaser.

                 (g)      No notice has been received by Seller and Seller is
not aware of any person having received notice from any insurance company that
has issued a policy with respect to any portion of the Property or from any
board of fire underwriters (or other body exercising similar functions),
claiming any defects or deficiencies or requiring the performance of any
repairs, replacements, alterations or other work.  No notice has been received
by Seller from any issuing insurance company that any of such policies will not
be renewed, or will be renewed only at a higher premium rate than is presently
payable therefor, except as disclosed to and accepted by Purchaser in writing.

                 (h)      No pending condemnation, eminent domain, assessment
or similar proceeding or charge affecting the Property or any portion thereof
exists.  Seller has not received any notice of a proposed increase in the
assessed valuation of the Property.

that will inure to the benefit of Purchaser.  All approvals, licenses and
permits required for said utilities have been obtained and are in force and
effect. All of said utilities are installed and operating, all installation and
connection charges have been paid in full, and the right to the return of any
deposit or contribution in connection therewith shall inure to Purchaser.

                 (k)      There are no material structural defects in any of
the buildings or other Improvements constituting the Property.  The

reasonably good condition and working order and adequate in quantity and
quality for the normal operation of the Property. No part of the Property has
been destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty. There are no unsatisfied
requests for repairs, restorations or alterations with regard to the Property
from any Tenant, lender, insurance provider or governmental authority.

                 (l)      No work has been performed or is in progress at the

                 (m)      There will exist no material service contracts,
management or other agreements applicable to the Property other than the
Business Agreements furnished to Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.1.  There are
no material agreements or understandings (whether oral or written) with respect
to the Property or any portion thereof, to which Seller is a party, other than
those delivered to Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.1

                 (n)      No default or breach exists under any of the Business

threatened against or affecting the Property or any portion thereof, any of the
Tenant Leases or relating to or arising out of the ownership, or by any
federal, state, county or municipal department, commission, board, bureau or
agency or other governmental instrumentality, other than those disclosed to
Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.1.  All judicial proceedings concerning the
Property will be finally dismissed and terminated prior to Closing.

                 (p)      The Property has free and unimpeded access to
presently existing public highways and/or roads (either directly or by way of
perpetual easements), and all approvals necessary therefor have been





                                      10

obtained and in full force and effect.  No fact or condition exists which would
result in the termination of the current access from the Property to any
presently existing public highways and/or roads adjoining or situated on the
Property.

authorizations to occupy, operate or use the Improvements or any part of the
Property by reason of any Hazardous Materials Law.

Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement are materially true,
correct and complete as of the date hereof and will be correct and complete as

disclosure schedule accompanying this Agreement and initialled by the Parties
(the 'Disclosure Schedule').  The Disclosure Schedule will be arranged in

setting forth all changes in the schedules, and in previously delivered
supplemental schedules, if any, and in any of the representations and
warranties made herein whether or not previously modified by a schedule,
arising out of matters discovered or occurring prior to the Closing.  Purchaser
and its counsel shall have 30 days to object in writing to any material
information in any supplemental schedule; failure by Purchaser to notify Seller
within such 30-day period of any objection to information provided in the
supplemental schedule prior to the Closing shall be deemed to be approval

                 6.2      INDEMNITY OF SELLER.  Subject to the provisions
provided hereafter limiting the liability of Seller, Seller hereby agrees to
indemnify and defend, at its sole cost and expense, and hold Purchaser, its
successors and assigns, harmless from and against and to reimburse Purchaser
with respect to any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, losses,
damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) of any and every kind or character,
known or unknown, fixed or contingent, asserted against or incurred by
Purchaser at any time and from time to time by reason of or arising out of (a)
the breach of any representation or warranty of Seller set forth in this
Agreement, (b) the failure of Seller, in whole or in part, to perform any
obligation required to be performed by Seller pursuant to Section 6.1 or (c)
except for the matters disclosed herein or in the Disclosure Schedule the
ownership, construction, occupancy, operation, use and maintenance of the
Property prior to the Closing Date.  This obligation of indemnity shall remain
in effect only for the term of the Lease, but notwithstanding such limitation,
otherwise it shall be without limitation with respect to the violation on or
before the Closing Date of any Hazardous Material Law in effect on or before
the Closing Date and any and all matters arising out of any act, omission,
event or circumstance existing or occurring on or prior to the Closing Date
(including, without limitation, the presence on the Property or release from
the Property of Hazardous Materials disposed of or otherwise released prior to
the Closing Date) which results in a violation of a Hazardous Materials Law,
regardless of whether the act, omission, event or circumstance constituted a
violation of any Hazardous Materials Law at the time of its existence or
occurrence.  The provisions of this Section 6.2 shall survive the Closing of
the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and shall continue thereafter in
full force and effect for the benefit of Purchaser, its successors and assigns.
However, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
Purchaser may exercise any right or remedy Purchaser may have at law or in
equity should Seller fail to meet, comply with or perform its indemnity
obligations required by this Section 6.2.

                 6.3      COVENANTS OF SELLER.  Seller covenants and agrees
with Purchaser, from the Effective Date until the Closing or earlier
termination of this Agreement:

                 (a)      Seller shall not collect rents in advance for more 
than one month.

                 (b)      Upon reasonable notice as to time by Purchaser to
Seller or any Tenant affected thereby, subject to the provisions of any of the
Tenant Leases, Purchaser shall be entitled to make all inspections or
investigations desired by Purchaser with respect to the Property or any portion
thereof, and, subject to the Tenant Leases and any security requirements, shall
have complete physical access to the Property and each of the leased premises
located thereon, which access shall not unreasonably interfere with Tenants in
possession. Seller and any Tenant affected thereby shall have the right to have
one or more representatives present at any such inspection or investigation.
Purchaser agrees to (i) repair any damages to the Property resulting from its
inspection, (ii) prevent any liens from being filed against the Property

undisclosed claims or liabilities that could have a material effect on the

executed this Agreement, and has full right, power and authority to enter into

joinder of no person or entity will be necessary to purchase the Property from
Seller at Closing, and to lease the Property to Seller following Closing.

                 (b)      The execution by Purchaser of this Agreement and the
consummation by Purchaser of the transactions contemplated herein do not, and
at the Closing will not, result in any breach of any of the terms or provisions
of or constitute a default or a condition which upon notice or lapse of time or
both would ripen into a default under any indenture, agreement, instrument or
obligation to which Purchaser is a party; and does not constitute a violation
of any order, rule or regulation applicable to





                                      13

Purchaser or any portion of the Property of any court or of any federal or
state or municipal regulatory body or administrative agency or other
governmental body having jurisdiction over Purchaser.

                 (c)      Purchaser shall have made its own investigation
regarding anticipated future Property performance, revenues, profits and
expenses and shall not rely on any performance, revenue, profit or expense
projections, forecasts or predictions relating to the Property provided by or
on behalf of Seller; provided that the foregoing provision shall in no way
lessen or diminish the obligation of Seller to furnish true and correct copies
of the Due Diligence Materials to Purchaser as provided under Article IV
hereof.

                 (d)      Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless

Closing, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller one or more supplemental schedules
setting forth all changes in the schedules, and in previously delivered
supplemental schedules, if any, and in any of the representations and
warranties made herein whether or not previously modified by a schedule,
arising out of matters discovered or occurring prior to the Closing.  Seller
and its counsel shall have 30 days to object in writing to any material
information in any supplemental schedule; failure by Seller to notify Purchaser
within such 30-day period of any objection to information provided in the
supplemental schedule prior to the Closing shall be deemed to be approval
thereof.

shall fail in any material respect to meet, comply with, or perform any
covenant, agreement or obligation on its part required within the time limits
and in the manner required in this Agreement.

                 (b)      Purchaser's Remedies. In the event Seller shall be
deemed to be in default hereunder Purchaser may, as its sole remedies: (i)
terminate this Agreement by written notice delivered to Seller on or before the
Closing; or (ii) in the event that Seller shall willfully refuse to close the
sale and only in such event, enforce specific performance of this Agreement
against Seller including Purchaser's reasonable costs and attorneys fees in
connection therewith.  It is understood and agreed that termination or specific
performance as provided in (i) and (ii) above constitute Purchaser's sole
remedy against Seller,

remedy for such default, shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement and all
rights of Purchaser hereunder and to receive the Independent Consideration, it

and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
heirs, executors, administrators, legal and personal representatives,
successors, and assigns.

                 11.7     EXTENSION OF DATES.  Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, if Seller shall fail to deliver any
document or item required pursuant to any of the terms and provisions of
Article IV and/or Article V within the applicable time period required,
Purchaser, at its option, shall have the right to extend the date of expiration
of the Review Period, and correspondingly the date of Closing, by the number of
days elapsing from the date such items were required to be delivered and the
date such items were actually delivered to Purchaser; provided that Purchaser
shall give Seller notice of its intent to extend such dates.  Nothing herein
shall diminish Seller's obligation to timely furnish such items.

                 11.8     TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE.  With respect to all
provisions of this Agreement, time is of the essence. However, if the first
date of any period which is set out in any provision of this Agreement falls on
a day which is not a Business Day, then, in such event, the time of such period
shall be extended to the next day which is a Business Day.

                 11.9     WAIVER OF CONDITIONS.  Any Party may at any time or
times, at its election, waive any of the conditions to its obligations
hereunder, but any such waiver shall be effective only if contained in a
writing signed by such Party. No waiver by a Party of any breach of this
Agreement or of any warranty or representation hereunder by the other Party
shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach by such other Party (whether
preceding or succeeding and whether or not of the same or similar nature), and
no acceptance of payment or performance by a Party after any breach by the
other Party shall be deemed to be a waiver of any breach of this Agreement or
of any representation or warranty hereunder by such other Party, whether or not
the first Party knows of such breach at the time it accepts such payment or
performance. No failure or delay by a Party to exercise any right it may have
by reason of the default of the other Party shall operate as a waiver of
default or modification of this Agreement or shall prevent the exercise of any
right by the first Party while the other Party continues to be so in default.

                 11.10    OFFER AND ACCEPTANCE.  This Agreement shall
automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m. on May 30, 1994, unless, prior to such
time, Purchaser has returned to Seller, and Seller shall have returned to
Purchaser, two fully-executed copies of this Agreement.

                 11.11    BROKERS.  Seller hereby represents to Purchaser that
Seller has not discussed this Agreement or the subject matter thereof with any
real estate broker or salesman so as to create any legal rights in any such
broker or salesman to claim a real estate commission or similar fee with
respect to the purchase or sale of the Property.  Seller agrees to defend,
indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from any and all claims for any real
estate commissions, leasing fees or similar fees arising out of or in any way
relating to a breach of the foregoing representation.

                 11.12    RISK OF LOSS.  Until the Closing Date, the risk of
loss of any portion of the Property shall be solely that of Seller.  Risk of
loss shall be that of Purchaser from and after the Closing Date, at which time
Seller shall deliver to Purchaser possession of the Property.

                 11.13    NO ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITIES.  Purchaser shall not
assume any of the existing liabilities, indebtedness, commitments or
obligations of any nature whatsoever (whether fixed or contingent) of Seller in
respect of the Property or otherwise, except those expressly assumed herein.





                                      21


                 11.14    COUNTERPARTS.  This Agreement may be executed in one
or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

                 EXECUTED to be effective as of the Effective Date.
