(the "Master Lease Deposit") with respect to Seller's obligation to pay certain

rent payable to Purchaser, and other charges, for the Vacant Space (as defined
below), and as itemized on EXHIBIT A attached hereto and made a part hereof by
this reference (the "Deposit Breakdown"); and
WHEREAS, the Master Lease Deposit is hereafter sometimes referred to as the
Escrow Deposit.
WHEREAS, Escrow Agent is willing to accept the Escrow Deposit and hold and
disburse same in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises hereto, the
covenants and agreements hereinafter made, and for Ten Dollars ($10.00) in hand
paid to Escrow Agent, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Seller hereby deposits with Escrow Agent, and Escrow Agent hereby
acknowledges receipt of the Master Lease Deposit. Escrow Agent hereby agrees to
deposit the Escrow Deposit into an interest bearing account with a bank, savings
and loan institution, money market account, or other depository reasonably
satisfactory to Purchaser, Seller and Escrow Agent, with interest accruing for
the benefit of Seller. The federal taxpayer identification of Seller is as
follows:_________and the FEIN of Seller's general partner is ▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
2. Escrow Agent shall retain the Escrow Deposit in the account, and shall
cause the same to be disbursed therefrom as follows:
(i) Subject to the terms hereof, the Escrow Deposit shall be
held and disbursed by Escrow Agent and used to fund to Purchaser the items set
forth on the Deposit Breakdown.
(ii) For purposes hereof, the term "Vacant Space" shall mean
the 8013 square feet of tenant floor area at the Property that, as of the date
of Closing, for which the Tenant Conditions as hereinafter defined are not
satisfied. For the purposes hereof, the Tenant Conditions for any Property
vacant space gross leasable area are hereby defined as (i) a signed lease, and
(ii) with Tenant either paying full rent and reimbursements or the all
conditions precedent to Rent Commencement Date (as defined in such tenant lease)
shall have occurred or been satisfied and (iii) with all the leasing commissions
and tenant improvement allowances either paid for by Seller or credited to Buyer
and (iv) with a certificate of occupancy or its equivalent occupancy permit
issued by the local governmental authorities, for such tenant's respective
demised premises and (v) Tenant shall have open and operated for its permitted
use for at least one day. Purchaser shall receive a prorated credit from the
Master Lease Deposit on the date of Closing (as defined in the Contract) for the
rent and reimbursable expenses attributable to the New Vacant Space, as defined
in the contract and also referenced herein as Vacant Space from the date of
Closing through the end of the month in which Closing occurs in accordance with
the terms of Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof. Thereafter,
through the date upon which all Tenant Conditions are satisfied with respect to
all or any portion of the Vacant Space, Escrow Agent shall pay to Purchaser (and
Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to pay to Purchaser without further direction
from Seller) from the Master Lease Deposit, on the first day of each month, the
amount of rent and other reimburseable expenses and other charges (in accordance
with the terms of Exhibit A) which would be due on a monthly basis from tenants
of the Vacant Space as if the Tenant Conditions were satisfied (prorated for any
partial month) (the "Master Lease Deposit Monthly Payment"). The Master Lease
Deposit Monthly Payment shall be made by Escrow Agent to Purchaser until such
time as the respective tenant(s) for the
Vacant Space, and Seller, have satisfied the Tenant Conditions. Purchaser shall
promptly notify Seller and Escrow Agent of the date any tenant satisfies its
Tenant Conditions. The Vacant Space may be subdivided and leased to more than
one tenant in Seller's commercially reasonable discretion. As all or any portion
of the Vacant Space is leased during the 12-month period following the date of
Closing, with the Tenant Conditions having then been satisfied for such Vacant
Space so leased, the balance of the Master Lease Deposit remaining to the end of
the Escrow Term (as hereinafter defined)(measured as the number of days
remaining from the date the Tenant Conditions for such leased portion of the
Vacant Space are met through the last day of the Escrow Term), attributable to
rent, reimbursable expenses, taxes, other charges and Excess Leasing Costs
(defined as those costs stated on Exhibit "A" for such expense less the actual
cost incurred for such expense) for such leased portion of the Vacant Space,
shall be released to Seller upon the joint direction of Seller and Purchaser.
The approval of a disbursement requested by either party will be deemed approved
if the non-requesting party does not object to the disbursement request within
five (5)-business days of receipt of such request. That portion of the Master
Lease Deposit attributable to tenant improvement allowances, free rent, and
broker or consultant fees and commissions (collectively, the "Leasing Costs"),
shall be released for payment (either to Seller or third parties, as the case
may be) upon presentment of the required lien waivers and related documentation
required by any governing lease or commission agreement. The balance of the
Master Lease Deposit attributable to the Leasing Costs, if any, after
satisfaction of the Tenant Conditions with respect to all or any portion of the
Vacant Space within the 12-month period following the date of Closing, shall be
released to Seller in accordance with the terms of Exhibit A. However, if the
Tenant Conditions have not been satisfied within 12-months of the date of
Closing for any portion of the Vacant Space to achieve the Lease-up Deficiency
as defined in 11(B)(d) of the Agreement of Sale on the first day of the
nineteenth month after date of Closing, all remaining sums then remaining of the
Master Lease Deposit attributable to such Leasing Costs (to the portion of
vacant space necessary to achieve the Lease-up Deficiency) shall be released to
Purchaser. Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller and Escrow Agent of the date
any tenant opens for business as provided under any lease. Any interest on the
Escrow Deposit shall be the property of Seller and in all events shall be
disbursed to Seller no later than the final disbursement made pursuant hereto.
The term of this Escrow Agreement (the "Escrow Term") shall be from the date
hereof until the first to occur of: (a) 12-months from the date of Closing; or
(b) such date as Seller leases the New Vacant Space (or equivalent of such by
leasing all or a portion or Retail K).
(iii) In the event either party objects to the disbursement of
the Escrow Deposit, the Escrow Agent shall have the right, at its option, either
(a) to hold the Escrow Deposit in escrow pending resolution of such objection by
mutual agreement of the parties or by judicial resolution of same or (b) to
disburse the Escrow Deposit into the court having jurisdiction over such
objection. After any disbursement of the Escrow Deposit under the terms of this
Escrow Agreement, Escrow Agent's duties and obligations hereunder shall cease.
In the event of any dispute regarding disbursement of the Escrow Deposit, the
party ultimately receiving the Escrow Deposit after resolution of such dispute
shall be entitled to receive from the other party all the prevailing party's
costs and expenses incurred in connection with the resolution of such dispute
including, without limitation, all court costs and reasonable attorney's fees.
3. This Escrow Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, principals, successors and
assigns and shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Arizona. No modification, amendment or waiver of the terms hereof shall
be valid or effective unless in writing and signed by all of the parties hereto.
