personal liability or obligation whatsoever with respect to any of the matters
set forth in this Agreement or any of the Seller's representation herein being

4.6 SURVIVAL; LIABILITY. Any and all of the representations and
warranties of Seller as contained in this Agreement shall be true as of the

inaccuracy, and during the fifteen (15) day period after such notice,

aggregate (with respect to any and all such breaches and/or violations)
shall not exceed FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS
($500,000.00), which such sum shall include all of Purchaser's
attorneys' fees, costs, expert witness fees and court costs.

shall have the one-time right, in its sole discretion, to extend the originally
scheduled Closing Date of April 18, 2004, to May 10, 2004 in order to allow
Seller (with the cooperation of Purchaser) to obtain such tenant estoppel
certificate from the GSA. If Purchaser still has not received the tenant
estoppel certificate from GSA on or before May 10, 2004, Purchaser must still
consummate the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
Closing will not be extended.
4.8 DEFECTIVE CONDITION EXTENSION; TERMINATION. The obligations of
Seller hereunder are subject to and contingent upon the following:
In the event that subsequent to the execution of this
Agreement Seller obtains knowledge of, or Purchaser's inspection of the
Property reveals the presence of any Hazardous Materials (as defined in

of any Environmental Requirements (as defined in Section 5.3 of this
Agreement), whether or not in violation of any applicable law,
ordinance, code, regulation or decree of any governmental authority
having jurisdiction over the Property (collectively, a "DEFECTIVE
CONDITION"), which Seller, in its sole judgment, determines could
constitute a potential liability to Seller after the Closing or should
be remedied prior to the sale of the Property, Seller shall have the
right upon written notice to Purchaser on or before the scheduled
Closing Date either (i) to extend the Closing Date for the period of
time necessary to evaluate the possibility of remediating the Defective
Condition and, if Seller so elects, to complete such remediation at
Seller's sole cost and

earlier termination of this Agreement (the "SURVIVING OBLIGATIONS").

CLOSING
6.1 ESCROW AND CLOSING. Upon execution of this Agreement, the
parties shall open escrow with Title Company by depositing with Title Company at
least three (3) fully-executed originals of this Agreement. This Agreement shall
serve as instructions to Title Company for consummation of the purchase and sale
contemplated hereby. Seller and Purchaser each may execute supplemental escrow
instructions, in each party's sole and absolute discretion. The Closing (the
"CLOSING") shall be held at the offices of First American Title Insurance
Company (the "TITLE COMPANY") at 000 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx, at a date designated by Seller and
Purchaser on or before April 18, 2004 (the "CLOSING DATE") unless the parties
mutually agree in writing upon another place, time or date.
6.2 POSSESSION. Possession of the Property shall be delivered to
Purchaser at the Closing, including, without limitation but only to the extent
in the possession of GECRG, all keys to all Improvements, combinations to any
safes or other security devices at the Property, and all non-proprietary records
and files relating to the management or operation of the Property.
6.3 PRORATION. All rents, other amounts payable by the tenants
under the Leases, income, utilities (except in the event Seller is able to
obtain a meter reading as of the Closing Date, in which event utilities will not
be prorated) and all other operating expenses with respect to the Property for
the month in which the Closing occurs, and real estate and personal property
taxes and other assessments with respect to the Property for the year in which
the Closing occurs, shall be prorated to the date Seller receives the Purchase
Price in immediately available funds with Seller receiving the benefits and
burdens of ownership on the Closing Date.
(a) If the Closing shall occur before rents and all other
amounts payable by the tenants under the Leases and all other income
from the Property have actually been paid for the month in which the
Closing occurs, the apportionment of such rents and other amounts and
other income shall be upon the basis of such rents, other amounts and
other income actually received by Seller. Subsequent to the Closing, if
any such rents and other income are actually received by Purchaser, all
such amounts shall first be applied to post-closing rents due to
Purchaser which are past due and the balance shall be immediately paid
by Purchaser to Seller to the extent such rents were delinquent prior
to Closing, or to the extent such rents were payable for the month of
Closing but were not prorated at Closing. Purchaser shall make a good
faith effort and attempt to collect any such rents and other amounts
and other income not apportioned at the Closing for the benefit of
Seller, however, Purchaser shall not be required to expend any funds or
institute any litigation in its collection efforts. Nothing in this
Section 6.3(a) shall restrict Seller's right to collect delinquent
rents directly from a tenant by any legal means; provided, however,
Seller shall not be entitled to evict any tenant or otherwise terminate
a tenant's lease.
(b) Non-delinquent taxes will be prorated based on the
latest available tax information.
PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
AND JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS Page 10
Hawthorne Plaza/Triple Net Properties, L.L.C.
(c) Seller shall endeavor in good faith to obtain a meter
reading as of the Closing Date. If the Closing shall occur before the
actual amount of utilities (if a meter reading was not obtained) and
all other operating expenses with respect to the Property for the month
in which the Closing occurs are determined, the apportionment of such
utilities and other operating expenses shall be upon the basis of an
estimate by Seller of such utilities and other operating expenses for
such month. Subsequent to the Closing, when the actual amount of such
utilities and other operating expenses with respect to the Property for
the month in which the Closing occurs are determined, the parties agree
to adjust the proration of such utilities and other operating expenses
and, if necessary, to refund or repay such sums as shall be necessary
to effect such adjustment.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, (i) Purchaser shall have no rights or claims with respect to
the tenant payments of operating expenses for calendar year 2003 and
prior years and (ii) Purchaser shall have no rights or claims with
respect to amounts owed by tenants to Seller for reimbursement of
certain capital expenditures made by Seller to the Property prior to
the Effective Date, and with respect to items (i) and (ii) above,
Seller shall be entitled to collect such amounts directly from tenants
in accordance with this Section 6.3 and such amounts shall not be
prorated and shall not be subject to the priority of payment set forth
in Section 6.3 (a) above.
(e) Prepaid rentals and other tenant charges and security
deposits (including any portion thereof which may be designated as
prepaid rent) under Leases, if and to the extent that such deposits are
in Seller's actual possession or control and have not been otherwise
applied by Seller to any obligations of any tenants under the Leases,
shall be credited against the Purchase Price paid to Seller at the
Closing. Upon Closing, Purchaser shall assume full responsibility for
all such prepaid rentals, other charges and security deposits to be
refunded to the tenants under the Leases (to the extent such amounts
are required to be refunded by the terms of such Leases). In the event
that any security deposits are in the form of letters of credit or
other financial instruments (the "NON-CASH SECURITY DEPOSITS") Seller
will, at Closing, cause such Non-Cash Security Deposits to be
transferred to Purchaser and Purchaser will not receive a credit
against the Purchase Price for such Non-Cash Security Deposits. In the
event Purchaser cannot be named the beneficiary under the Non-Cash
Security Deposits as of Closing, Seller will endeavor in good faith and
on behalf of Purchaser to draw on such Non-Cash Security Deposits if
warranted until such time as Purchaser is named the beneficiary under
such Non-Cash Security Deposits.
(f) Seller shall be responsible for all accrued and
payable tenant improvement and leasing commission costs and expenses to
the extent such costs are landlord's obligations under any lease of
space in the Improvements that is executed prior to the Effective Date.
Purchaser shall be responsible for and shall reimburse Seller (or
prorate to the extent Seller receives any rental income under such new
lease) at Closing for all costs and expenses incurred and paid by
Seller under (i) any new lease of space in the Improvements executed
after the Effective Date and (ii) any extension, renewal or
modification of any lease of space in the Improvements executed after
the Effective Date. Said costs and expenses shall include, but not be
limited to, costs incurred and paid by Seller for tenant improvements,
leasing commissions, capital improvements, and reasonable attorney's
fees (with the costs in items (i) and (ii) above being referred to
herein as the "POST EFFECTIVE DATE LEASE EXPENSES").
(g) Seller has disclosed to Purchaser and Purchaser
hereby acknowledges that the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA")
has requested that Seller complete certain tenant improvements at the
EPA's leased premises which include, among other things, installing a
new key card access system. Purchaser hereby expressly consents to and
approves such tenant
PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
AND JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS Page 11
Hawthorne Plaza/Triple Net Properties, L.L.C.
improvement work and in connection therewith, at Closing, to the extent
the costs and expenses incurred and paid by the landlord under the EPA
Lease is fully reimbursable by the EPA to the landlord pursuant to the
EPA Lease (or supplemental EPA lease), then Purchaser shall reimburse
Seller the amount of all costs and expenses incurred and paid by Seller
in connection with such tenant improvement work. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing is not a
guaranty by Seller that Purchaser will be able to collect any amounts
owed by the EPA pursuant to its reimbursement obligation under the EPA
Lease.
The agreements of Seller and Purchaser set forth in this Section 6.3 shall
survive the Closing.
6.4 CLOSING COSTS. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
Seller shall pay, on the Closing Date, one-half (1/2) of any escrow fees and
other customary charges of the Title Company and all state, county and city
transfer taxes, and Purchaser shall pay, on the Closing Date, that portion of
the title insurance premium for the base Owner's Policy (as defined in Section
6.5(a) of this Agreement) allocable to CLTA standard coverage, the cost of any

survey must also be certified to Seller), the portion of the title insurance
premium for the Owner's Policy allocable to ALTA coverage or any other coverage
above the standard CLTA coverage, the cost of any endorsements or additional
coverage over the base Owner's Policy, all recording costs, and one-half (1/2)

RISK OF LOSS
7.1 CONDEMNATION. If, prior to the Closing, action is initiated to
take any of the Property by eminent domain proceedings or by deed in lieu
thereof, Purchaser may either at or prior to Closing (a) terminate this
Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be refunded to Purchaser
(subject to Purchaser's delivery of the Reports to Seller), and neither party
shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than the Surviving
Obligations, or (b) consummate the Closing, in which latter event all of
Seller's assignable right, title and interest in and to the award of the
condemning authority shall be assigned to Purchaser at the Closing and there
shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price.
7.2 CASUALTY. Except as provided in Sections 4.2 and 5.1 of this
Agreement, Seller assumes all risks and liability for damage to or injury
occurring to the Property by fire, storm, accident, or any other casualty or
cause until the Closing has been consummated. If the Property, or any part
thereof, suffers any damage in excess of $1,000,000.00 prior to the Closing from
fire or other casualty or if a tenant or tenants in the aggregate occupying at
least 50,000 square feet of space at the Property terminate their Leases
pursuant to the terms and conditions thereof as a result of such fire or other
casualty at the Property, which Seller, at its sole option, does not elect to
repair, Purchaser may either at or prior to Closing (a) terminate this
Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be refunded to Purchaser
(subject to Purchaser's delivery of the Reports to Seller), and neither party
shall have any further right or obligation hereunder other than the Surviving
Obligations, or (b) consummate the Closing, in which latter event all of
Seller's right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any insurance
covering such damage (less an amount equal to any expenses and costs incurred by
Seller to repair or restore the Property and any portion of such proceeds paid
or to be paid on account of the loss of rents or other income from the Property
for the period prior to and including the Closing Date, all of which shall be
payable to Seller), to the extent the amount of such insurance does not exceed
the Purchase Price, shall be assigned to Purchaser at the Closing. If the
Property, or any part thereof, suffers any damage less than $1,000,000.00 prior
to the Closing, Purchaser agrees that it will consummate the Closing and accept
the assignment of the proceeds of any insurance covering such damage plus an
amount equal to Seller's deductible under its insurance policy and an amount
equal to the uninsured loss, if any, and there shall be no reduction in the
Purchase Price.
8.
DEFAULT
8.1 BREACH BY SELLER. In the event that Seller shall default in
any of its Article 6 obligations hereunder by failing to consummate this
Agreement for any reason other than as a result of (i) Purchaser's default, or
(ii) a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to an
express right to do so under the provisions hereof, Purchaser, as its sole and
exclusive remedy may either (a) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of
the Xxxxxxx Money (subject to Purchaser's delivery of the Reports to Seller),
and neither party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder other
than the Surviving Obligations, or (b) pursue the remedy of specific performance
of Seller's obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i)
Purchaser shall only be entitled to such remedy if (A) any such suit for
specific performance is filed within sixty (60) days after Purchaser becomes
aware of the default by Seller, (B) Purchaser is not in default under this
Agreement, (C) Purchaser has tendered at least twenty percent (20%) of the
Purchase Price to the Title Company in immediately available funds and the Title
Company has acknowledged receipt of same, in writing, to Seller, and (D)
Purchaser has furnished ten (10) days prior written notice to Seller of its
intent and election to seek specific enforcement of this Agreement; and (ii)
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall not be
PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
AND JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS Page 14
Hawthorne Plaza/Triple Net Properties, L.L.C.
obligated to expend any sums to cure any defaults under this Agreement and if
Purchaser seeks specific performance under this Agreement, Purchaser agrees to
accept the Property in its "WHERE IS, AS IS" condition. Purchaser hereby agrees
that prior to its exercise of any rights or remedies as a result of any defaults
by Seller, Purchaser will first deliver written notice of said default to
Seller, and if Seller so elects, Seller shall have the opportunity, but not the
obligation, to cure such default within ten (10) days after Seller's receipt of
such notice. In no event whatsoever shall Purchaser file any instrument of
record against title to the Property; provided, however, Purchaser may file a
lis pendens of this Agreement simultaneously with its filing of a suit for
specific performance pursuant to this Section 8.1. Notwithstanding any of the
foregoing to the contrary, in no event whatsoever shall Purchaser have the right
to seek money damages of any kind as a result of any default by Seller under any
of the terms of this Agreement. In no event shall Seller be liable to Purchaser
for any punitive, speculative or consequential damages.
8.2 BREACH BY PURCHASER.
(a) If Purchaser defaults in its obligations to satisfy
any of its Article 6 obligations hereunder, Seller may terminate this
Agreement and so long as Seller is not also in default of its Article 6
obligations, thereupon shall be entitled to the Xxxxxxx Money as
liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) and as Seller's sole remedy
and relief hereunder (except for the Surviving Obligations). Seller and
Purchaser have made this provision for liquidated damages because it
would be difficult to calculate, on the date hereof, the amount of
actual damages for such breach, and Seller and Purchaser agree that
these sums represent reasonable compensation to Seller for such breach.
Liquidated Damages. BY INITIALING BELOW, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE
IMPRACTICABLE OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX, PRIOR TO SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT,
THE ACTUAL DAMAGES WHICH WOULD BE SUFFERED BY SELLER IF PURCHASER FAILS TO
PERFORM ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. THEREFORE, IF, AFTER THE
SATISFACTION OR WAIVER OF ALL CONTINGENCIES PROVIDED FOR THE PURCHASER'S
BENEFIT, PURCHASER BREACHES THIS AGREEMENT, SELLER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IN THE AMOUNT OF THE XXXXXXX MONEY, WHICH AMOUNT IS THE
PARTIES' BEST AND MOST ACCURATE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES SELLER WOULD SUFFER IN
THE EVENT THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT FAILS TO CLOSE, SUCH
ESTIMATE BEING REASONABLE UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE EFFECTIVE
DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT. UPON PAYMENT OF SAID SUM TO SELLER, PURCHASER SHALL BE
RELEASED FROM ANY FURTHER OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY TO SELLER EXCEPT FOR THE
SURVIVING OBLIGATIONS, AND SELLER SHALL BE RELEASED FROM ANY FURTHER OBLIGATION
OR LIABILITY TO PURCHASER. THE PAYMENT OF SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS
NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL
CODE Section 3275 OR Section 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED
DAMAGES TO SELLER UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE Sections 1671, 1676 AND 1677.

Company (hereinafter called "AGENT" whether one or more) upon the Closing of the
transaction contemplated hereby, and not otherwise, a cash commission in the
amount agreed on in a separate listing agreement between Seller and Agent. Said
commission shall in no event be earned, due and payable unless and until the
transaction contemplated hereby is closed and fully consummated strictly in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Seller has received the Purchase
Price in immediately available funds; if such transaction is not closed and
fully consummated for any reason, including, without limitation, failure of
title or default by Seller or Purchaser or termination of this Agreement
pursuant to the terms hereof, then such commission will be deemed not to have
been earned and shall not be due or payable. Except as set forth above with
respect to Agent, neither Seller nor Purchaser has authorized any broker or
finder to act on Purchaser's behalf in connection with the sale and purchase
hereunder and neither Seller nor Purchaser has dealt with any broker or finder
purporting to act on behalf of any other party. Purchaser agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all claims, losses, damages,
costs or
PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
AND JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS Page 17
Hawthorne Plaza/Triple Net Properties, L.L.C.
expenses of any kind or character arising out of or resulting from any
agreement, arrangement or understanding alleged to have been made by Purchaser
or on Purchaser's behalf with any broker or finder in connection with this
Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby. Seller agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless Purchaser from and against any and all claims, losses, damages,
costs or expenses of any kind or character arising out of or resulting from any
agreement, arrangement or understanding alleged to have been made by Seller or
on Seller's behalf with any broker or finder in connection with this Agreement
or the transaction contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, this Section 10.2 shall survive the Closing or any earlier
termination of this Agreement.
10.3 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement
between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof, and there are no oral
or written agreements between the parties, nor any representations made by
either party relative to the subject matter hereof, which are not expressly set
forth herein.
10.4 AMENDMENT. This Agreement may be amended only by a written
instrument executed by the party or parties to be bound thereby.
10.5 HEADINGS. The captions and headings used in this Agreement are
for convenience only and do not in any way limit, amplify, or otherwise modify
the provisions of this Agreement.
10.6 TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence of this Agreement;
however, if the final date of any period which is set out in any provision of
this Agreement falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday under the laws of
the United States or the State of California, then, in such event, the time of
such period shall be extended to the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or
legal holiday.

10.8 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall bind

executors, administrators, personal and legal representatives, successors and
permitted assigns. Purchaser shall not assign Purchaser's rights under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be
withheld absolutely. In the event Seller consents to such assignment, Purchaser
and such assignee shall execute and deliver an Assignment of Purchase and Sale
Agreement in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT F. Any subsequent assignment
may be made only with the prior written consent of Seller. No assignment of
Purchaser's rights hereunder shall relieve Purchaser of its liabilities under
this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
Purchaser may assign this Agreement to an "AFFILIATE" so long as Purchaser
delivers to Seller, within ten (10) days after the Effective Date, the complete
names of all entities and persons controlling, controlled by, under common
control with or otherwise having an interest in the Affiliate. For purposes of
this Section 10.8 the term "Affiliate" shall mean any entity in which Triple Net
Properties, L.L.C. ultimately holds the controlling interest. This Agreement is
solely for the benefit of Seller and Purchaser; there are no third party
beneficiaries hereof. Any assignment of this Agreement in violation of the
foregoing provisions shall be null and void. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, Seller shall be entitled to assign its rights under
this Agreement to one or more entities prior to the Closing Date without the
necessity of Purchaser's consent, and upon such assignment and a conveyance of
the Property to Seller's assignee, Seller shall be released from all obligations
under this Agreement, "Seller" shall thereafter refer to and only to such
assignee, and Purchaser agrees to look solely to such assignee for performance
of all of Seller's obligations under this Agreement.
