(c) Within five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, GIPLP may obtain and deliver to Contributor an update to the Title Commitment (the “Updated Title Commitment”). Any matters disclosed in the Updated Title Commitment which were not exceptions in the Title Commitment shall automatically be deemed Title Defects which Contributor shall be obligated to cure unless such matters were placed of record with GIPLP’s joinder and consent. The cure of any such new Title Defects shall be effected within such time periods as were provided in connection with curing Title Defects under the initial Title Commitment. If Contributor shall in fact cure or eliminate the new Title Defects, the Closing shall take place on the date specified in this Agreement. If Contributor does not cure or eliminate the new Title Defects, GIPLP may elect to terminate this Agreement or proceed to Closing as provided in Section 3.4(d) below.
(d) If Contributor is unable to cure or eliminate any Title Defects (including any new Title Defects revealed by the updated Title Commitment to be provided to GIPLP as set forth in Section 3.4(c) above) within the time allowed, GIPLP may elect to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) days following the expiration of the curative period by giving written notice of termination to Contributor, or, alternatively, GIPLP may elect to close its purchase of the Property, accepting the conveyance of the Property subject to the Title Defects, in which event the Closing shall take place on the date specified in this Agreement, subject to any delays provided for above. If, by giving written notice to Contributor within the time allowed, GIPLP elects to terminate this Agreement because of the existence of uncured Title Defects, the Earnest Money Deposit shall be returned to GIPLP and upon such return the obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall be terminated. The foregoing right of GIPLP to terminate this Agreement upon the failure to
- 13 -
cure a Title Defect which Contributor is obligated to cure shall not be deemed to limit the GIPLP’s rights and remedies to which GIPLP might otherwise be entitled for the breach by Contributor of any of its covenants, duties or obligations hereunder, or for the falsehood of any of the Contributor’s material representations.
(e) GIPLP may, at GIPLP’s expense, within the Inspection Period, obtain a boundary survey of the Land (“Survey”). The Survey shall be prepared by a land surveyor duly licensed and registered as such in the State of Florida, shall be certified by such surveyor to GIPLP, GIPLP’s counsel, Contributor and the Title Company, shall set forth the legal description of the Land and shall otherwise be in a form satisfactory to the Title Company to eliminate the standard survey exceptions from the Title Policy to be issued at Closing. GIPLP shall notify Contributor in writing within the period for GIPLP to notify Contributor of any Title Defects specifying any matters shown on the Survey which adversely affect the title to the Land or constitute a zoning violation and the same shall thereupon the deemed to be Title Defects hereunder and Contributor shall elect to cure or not cure the same as provided in Section 3.4(a) of this Agreement and if Contributor elects to undertake the cure thereof it shall do so within the time and in the manner provided in Section 3.4(b) of this Agreement.

- 28 -
maintenance charges, tenant reimbursements and escalations, and all other payments payable for the month of Closing and for all other rents and other amounts that apply to periods from and after the Closing, but which are received by Contributor prior to Closing. GIPLP agrees to pay to Contributor, upon receipt, any rents or other payments by Tenant under the Lease that apply to periods prior to Closing but are received by GIPLP after Closing; provided, however, that any delinquent rents or other payments by Tenant shall be applied first to any current amounts owing by Tenant, then to delinquent rents in the order in which such rents are most recently past due, with the balance, if any, paid over to Contributor to the extent of delinquencies existing at the time of Closing to which Contributor is entitled; it being understood and agreed that GIPLP shall not be legally responsible to Contributor for the collection of any rents or other charges payable with respect to the Lease or any portion thereof, which are delinquent or past due as of the Closing Date; but GIPLP agrees that GIPLP shall send monthly notices prepared by Contributor for a period of three (3) consecutive months in an effort to collect any rents and charges not collected as of the Closing Date.

Conversely, if the Tenant shall become entitled at any time after Closing to a refund of Tenant’s reimbursements actually paid by Tenant prior to Closing, then, Contributor shall, within thirty (30) days following GIPLP’s demand therefor, pay to GIPLP any amount equal to Contributor’s pro rata share of such reimbursement refund obligations, said proration to be calculated on the same basis as hereinabove set forth. Contributor hereby waives its right to file any administrative or legal action against the Tenant under the Lease for sums due Contributor for periods attributable to Contributor’s ownership of the Property, except that Contributor shall be entitled to continue to pursue any legal proceedings commenced prior to Closing; but shall not be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings against the Tenant seeking eviction of Tenant or the termination of the Lease unless consented to by GIPLP in writing. Contributor shall be responsible for collecting and remitting all sales and use taxes that are due or become due on rent payments under the Lease received by Contributor prior to Closing. GIPLP shall be responsible for collecting and remitting all sales and use taxes that become due on rent payments under the Lease received by GIPLP after Closing. The provisions of this Section 5.4(c) shall survive the Closing.
(d) Security Deposits. GIPLP shall receive a credit at Closing for the Security Deposit (and any interest thereon required to be reimbursed to any tenant) pursuant to the Lease or pursuant to applicable law. Contributor agrees to and does hereby indemnify, defend and hold GIPLP harmless from and against any liability or expense incurred by GIPLP by reason of any Security Deposit (and interest thereon, if required by law) actually collected by Contributor and not actually paid (or credited) to GIPLP at the Closing. GIPLP agrees to and does hereby indemnify and hold Contributor harmless from and against any liability or expense incurred by Contributor by reason of any Security Deposit (and interest thereon, if required by law) which is paid (or credited) to GIPLP at the Closing and which GIPLP does not properly refund to the applicable Tenant. The provisions of this Section 5.4(d) shall survive the Closing.
- 29 -
(e) Intentionally Deleted.
(f) Special Assessments. Certified, confirmed and ratified special assessment liens as of date of Closing (and not as of the date of this Agreement) shall be paid by Contributor or GIPLP shall receive a credit therefor. Pending liens as of date of Closing shall be assumed by GIPLP; provided, however, that where the improvement, for which the special assessment was levied, has been substantially completed as of the date of this Agreement, such pending liens shall be considered as certified, confirmed or ratified and Contributor shall, at Closing, be charged an amount equal to the estimated amount of the assessment for the improvement. If any special assessment liens are due in installments Contributor shall be required to pay any installment due as of the Closing Date and GIPLP shall be responsible for all such installments due after the date of Closing.

ARTICLE 7.
CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION
7.1 Casualty. Risk of loss up to and including the Closing Date shall be borne by Contributor. In the event of any immaterial damage or destruction to the Property or any portion thereof, Contributor and GIPLP shall proceed to close under this Agreement, and GIPLP will receive (and Contributor will assign to GIPLP at the Closing Contributor’s rights under insurance policies to receive) any insurance proceeds due Contributor as a result of such damage or destruction and assume responsibility for such repair, and GIPLP shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible, uninsured or coinsured amount under said insurance policies. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “immaterial damage or destruction” shall mean such instances of damage or destruction: (i) which can be repaired or restored at a cost of Ten Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) or less; (ii) which can be restored and repaired within sixty (60) days from the date of such damage or destruction; and (iii) in which Contributor’s rights under its insurance policy covering the Property are assignable to GIPLP and will continue pending restoration and repair of the damage or destruction.
In the event of any material damage or destruction to the Property or any portion thereof, GIPLP may, at its option, by notice to Contributor given within the earlier of twenty (20) days after GIPLP is notified by Contributor of such damage or destruction, or the Closing Date, but in no event less than ten (10) days after GIPLP is notified by Contributor of such damage or destruction (and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give GIPLP the full 10-day period to make such election): (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Earnest Money Deposit to GIPLP, or (ii) proceed to close under this Agreement, receive (and Contributor will assign to GIPLP at the Closing Contributor’s rights under insurance policies to receive) any insurance proceeds due Contributor as a result of such damage or destruction (less any amounts reasonably expended for restoration or collection of proceeds) and assume responsibility for such repair, and GIPLP shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible amount under said insurance policies. If GIPLP fails to deliver to Contributor notice of its election within the period set forth above, GIPLP will conclusively be deemed to have elected to proceed with the Closing as provided in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. If GIPLP elects clause (ii) above, Contributor will cooperate with GIPLP after the Closing to assist GIPLP in obtaining the insurance proceeds from Contributor’s insurers. For purposes of this Agreement “material damage or destruction” shall mean all instances of damage or destruction that are not immaterial, as defined herein.
7.2 Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of the Property is subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation by a body having the power of eminent domain or is taken by eminent domain or condemnation (or sale in lieu thereof), or if Contributor has received written notice that any condemnation action or proceeding with respect to the
- 31 -
Property is contemplated by a body having the power of eminent domain, Contributor shall give GIPLP immediate written notice of such threatened or contemplated condemnation or of such taking or sale, and GIPLP may by written notice to Contributor given within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice from Contributor, elect to cancel this Agreement. If GIPLP chooses to cancel this Agreement in accordance with this Section 7.2, then the Earnest Money Deposit shall be returned immediately to GIPLP by Escrow Agent and the rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities of the parties hereunder shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect, except for those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement. If GIPLP does not elect to cancel this Agreement in accordance herewith, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the contribution of the Property contemplated by this Agreement, less any interest taken by eminent domain or condemnation, or sale in lieu thereof, shall be effected with no further adjustment and without reduction of the Contribution Consideration, and at the Closing, Contributor shall assign, transfer, and set over to GIPLP all of the right, title, and interest of Contributor in and to any awards applicable to the Property that have been or that may thereafter be made for such taking. At such time as all or a part of the Property is subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation and GIPLP shall not have elected to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 7.2 (and either the 30-day period within which GIPLP has a right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.2 has expired or GIPLP has agreed to waive its right to terminate this Agreement), and provided that the Inspection Period has expired (i) GIPLP shall thereafter be permitted to participate in the proceedings as if GIPLP were a party to the action, and (ii) Contributor shall not settle or agree to any award or payment pursuant to condemnation, eminent domain, or sale in lieu thereof without obtaining GIPLP’s prior written consent thereto in each case.
ARTICLE 8.
DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
8.1 GIPLP’s Default. If GIPLP fails to consummate this transaction for any reason other than Contributor’s default, failure of a condition to GIPLP’s obligation to close or the exercise by GIPLP of an express right of termination granted herein, and such default is not cured within ten (10) days after written notice thereof to GIPLP, Contributor shall be entitled, as its sole remedy hereunder, to terminate this Agreement and to receive and retain the Earnest Money Deposit as full liquidated damages for such default of GIPLP, the parties hereto acknowledging that it is impossible to estimate more precisely the damages which might be suffered by Contributor upon GIPLP’s default, and that said Earnest Money Deposit is a reasonable estimate of Contributor’s probable loss in the event of default by GIPLP. Contributor’s retention of said Earnest Money Deposit is intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages. The right to retain the Earnest Money Deposit as full liquidated damages is Contributor’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of default hereunder by GIPLP, and Contributor hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) sue the GIPLP: (a) for specific performance of this Agreement, or (b) to recover actual damages in excess of the Earnest Money Deposit.
8.2 Contributor’s Default. If Contributor fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement for any reason other than GIPLP’s default or the permitted termination of this Agreement by GIPLP as expressly provided herein, and such default is not
- 32 -
cured within ten (10) days after written notice thereof to Contributor, GIPLP shall be entitled, as its remedy, either (a) to terminate this Agreement and receive the return of the Earnest Money Deposit from Escrow Agent, together with GIPLP’s actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred with respect to this transaction (not to exceed $35,000) which shall be reimbursed by Contributor to GIPLP within ten (10) business days after GIPLP’s delivery of commercially reasonable documentation supporting such costs and expenses (in such event, the right to retain the Earnest Money Deposit plus costs shall be full liquidated damages and, except as set forth herein, shall be GIPLP’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of a default hereunder by Contributor, and GIPLP hereby waives and releases any right to sue Contributor for damages), or (b) to enforce specific performance of Contributor’s obligation to execute and deliver the documents required to convey the Property to GIPLP in accordance with this Agreement. If specific performance is not available to GIPLP as a result of Contributor having sold the Property or any portion thereof to another party, or as a result of a willful and intentional act or omission of Contributor, then, in addition to GIPLP’s termination right and reimbursement referenced, GIPLP shall have all remedies available at law or in equity.
8.3 Fraud/Misrepresentation. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 8.1 or 8.2 above, either party may pursue the other party for any legal or equitable remedy which may be available as a result of an actual fraud intentional misrepresentation committed by the other party.
ARTICLE 9.
ASSIGNMENT
9.1 Assignment. Subject to the next following sentence, this Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable by any party without the written consent of the other.

(e) Escrow Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those set forth in this Section and shall not incur any liability in acting upon any signature, notice, demand, request, waiver, consent, receipt or other paper or document believed by Escrow Agent to be genuine.

- 37 -
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Upon completion of the disbursement of the Earnest Money Deposit, Escrow Agent shall be automatically released and discharged of its escrow obligations hereunder.
(f) The terms and provisions of this Article shall create no right in any person, firm or corporation other than the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns and no third party shall have the right to enforce or benefit from the terms hereof.
(g) The status of Escrow Agent as GIPLP’s counsel in this transaction shall not disqualify such law firm from acting as Escrow Agent, or from representing GIPLP in connection with this transaction, the matters contemplated herein, or any disputes between Contributor and GIPLP that may arise out of this transaction, including, without limitation, any dispute with respect to the Earnest Money Deposit.
