RE: Xxxxxx Centre — Second Amendment to Purchase Agreement
Dear Messrs. Xxxxxxx:
This letter relates to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated effective as of October 24,
2006 (the “Original Purchase Agreement”), as previously amended by that certain letter agreement
dated as of December 8, 2006 (as so amended, the “Current Purchase Agreement”), whereby Xxxxxx
Office Center, ltd., a Texas limited partnership (“Seller”), as seller, agreed to sell to XXXX
Property Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser”), as purchaser, that
certain property commonly known as the “Xxxxxx Centre” located at 0000 XXX Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx
(the “Property”). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings ascribed to
such terms in the Current Purchase Agreement.
Seller and Purchaser hereby agree to amend the Current Purchase Agreement as follows:
1. | The parties acknowledge that Seller has delivered to Purchaser all items prescribed in Section 5 and Section 6 of the Original Purchase Agreement. The parties further agree, however, that the expiration date of the Review Period is hereby extended from December 13, 2006 (i.e., the expiration date established by the December 8th letter agreement described above) to December 29,2006. Seller consents to the performance of a “Phase II” environmental investigation of the Property by [redacted], and Xxxxxxxxx agrees to restore any and all damage, in any, which may be caused to the Property in connection with such “Phase II” inspection by[redacted]. | ||
2. | The Purchase Price is reduced by $350,000.00 to be $20,000,000.00. | ||
3. | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Current Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 17(iii) of the Original Purchase Agreement, (a) any and all awards payable in connection with the Disclosed Taking shall be paid to Purchaser in the event the transaction contemplated in the Current Purchase Agreement and this letter agreement (hereinafter, “this sales transaction”) closes, and (b) from and after the Closing Date, Seller shall have no right, title or interest in the Disclosed Taking, or any settlement or resolution |

thereof. In addition, provided that this sales transaction closes, then Seller shall have no obligations whatsoever in connection with the Disclosed Taking; and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser agrees that contingent upon the closing of this sales transaction, Purchaser will be solely responsible for paying all charges from the attorney or attorneys employed by Purchaser after the date of this letter agreement in connection with the Disclosed Taking (with Purchaser being entitled to use the legal services of any attorneys of its choosing, regardless of whether such attorneys are included within the definition of “Approved Attorneys” in Section 17(iii) of the Original Purchase Agreement). | ||
4. | The parties acknowledge that Xxxxxx Centre Executive Suites, LLC (“Existing Tenant”) is the tenant under a month-to-month lease (the “Existing Lease”) of Suite [redacted], consisting of [redacted] square feet. Seller agrees that an additional condition to the obligations of Purchaser to consummate the Closing (i.e., the failure of which condition will permit Purchaser to terminate the Current Agreement and receive a full refund of its Xxxxxxx Money and all interest earned thereon) shall be as follows: On or prior to the Closing Date, Seller and a ‘Permitted Tenant” (as defined below) shall execute an amendment (the “Lease Amendment”) to the Existing Lease on the terms set forth in this Paragraph 4 and otherwise in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser. The term of the Existing Lease shall be extended for [redacted] years from and after the Closing Date, the “base year” under the Existing Lease, as amended by the Lease Amendment, shall be calendar year [redacted], and the square footage rental rate for the [redacted] year extension term under the Existing Lease, as amended by the Lease Amendment, shall be as follows: |
(i) | Year One

(ii) | Year Two

(v) | Year Five
|

(vi) | Year Six

Promptly after the execution of this letter agreement, Xxxxxx shall prepare a draft of the
Lease Amendment for Purchaser’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld. For purposes of this Paragraph 4, the term “Permitted Tenant”) shall be deemed to mean
any of the following: (i) the Existing Tenant; (ii) an
entity which is affiliated with [redacted]
