After the execution hereof, no further liens, encumbrances, easements or restrictions shall be created or filed ("Subsequent Encumbrances") on or with respect to the Property.

If the Binder discloses any exceptions, liens, encumbrances, defects or objections other than the Permitted Encumbrances or if, after execution hereof, a Subsequent Encumbrance shall be placed against the Property or if the Title Company is unable to issue the endorsements (herein collectively called the "Title Defect(s)"), then Purchaser shall have the right to: (i) require Seller to use best efforts to cure any such Title Defects (except that Seller shall be obligated to cure any Title Defects which can be removed solely by the payment of a sum of money); (ii) attempt to cure any such Title Defect; (iii) accept such title as Seller shall be able to convey and proceed to Closing without reduction in the Purchase Price; (iv) cause a title report and title insurance policy to be issued by another title company without such Title Defect; (v) elect not to purchase the Property and declare this Agreement null and void, whereupon Purchaser shall be entitled to the return of the Letter of Credit; provided, however, if Seller gives notice to Purchaser within five (5) days after Purchaser's election under this subparagraph (v), that Seller intends to cure such Title Defects and thereafter cures such Title Defects in accordance with the terms of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from Purchaser of its election under this subparagraph (v), then Purchaser's notice of termination shall be deemed negated and the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall proceed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The right of Purchaser to terminate this Agreement may be exercised following the exercise of its other rights hereunder. (c) If at Closing there are liens or encumbrances against the Property other than Permitted Encumbrances, Seller 7 may use any portion of the Purchase Price to satisfy same, provided Seller, at Closing, either shall: (1) deliver to Purchaser instruments in recordable form sufficient to satisfy such liens or encumbrances of record, together with the cost of recording or filing said instruments; or (2) deposit with Title Company sufficient monies acceptable to Title Company to insure obtaining and recording of such satisfactions and the issuance of a Title Policy for the Property to Purchaser free and clear of any such liens or encumbrances, but only to the extent that such liens or encumbrances are in favor of and held by institutional lenders. The existence of any such liens or encumbrances shall not be deemed objections or exceptions to title if Seller shall comply with the foregoing requirements. (d) If a search of title discloses judgments, bankruptcies or other returns against other persons or entities having names the same as or similar to that of Seller or any predecessor in title, Seller, on request, shall deliver to Title Company, an affidavit showing that such judgments, bankruptcies or other returns are not against Seller or such predecessors in interest of Seller. 6.

If the Closing Date shall occur before any or all of the foregoing are fixed, the apportionment of real property taxes shall be made on the basis of the tax rate for the preceding year applied to the latest assessed valuation. After the final real property taxes, water rates and charges and sewer taxes and rents are fixed, Seller and Purchaser shall make a recalculation of the apportionment of same, and Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall make an appropriate payment to the other based on such recalculation. (ii) If at the time for the delivery of the Deed, the Premises shall be or shall have been affected by an assessment or assessments (including special and/or added) which are or may become payable in annual installments of which the first installment is then due or has been paid, then for the purposes of this Agreement all the unpaid installments of any such assessment, including those which are to become due and payable after the delivery of the Deed for the Premises, shall be deemed to be due and payable and to be liens upon such Premises affected thereby and shall be paid and discharged by Seller upon the delivery of the Deed for the Premises.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the tenant(s) of the Premises are obligated under a written lease for the payment of the entire assessment (confirmed and/or unconfirmed), then with respect to such assessment Purchaser shall seek payment from the Tenant(s), and any assessment not otherwise the obligation of the Tenant(s) shall be the obligation of Seller. Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Purchaser in connection with Seller's failure to perform Seller's obligation under this Paragraph 9(b)(ii). (c) If there shall be any water meters on the Property (other than meters measuring water consumption costs which are the obligation of Tenants to pay), Seller shall furnish readings to a date not more than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, and the unfixed water rates and charges and sewer taxes and rents, if any, based thereon for the intervening time, shall be apportioned on the basis of such last readings.

(e) If any refund of real property taxes, water rates and charges or sewer taxes and rents is made after the Closing Date for a period prior to the Closing Date, the same shall be applied first to the costs incurred in obtaining same and second to the refunds due to Tenants by reason of the provisions of their respective Leases. The balance, if any, of such refund shall be paid to Seller (for the period prior to the Closing 26 Date) and Purchaser (for the period commencing with the Closing Date).

In the event that any Governmental Authority shall have an ordinance, law, rule, regulation or other requirement requiring a new Certificate of Occupancy or other governmental authorization to be issued in 28 connection with the transfer of title to the Property, or in the event that on the Closing Date there is any such requirement, then and in any of such events, Seller shall use its best efforts, at its sole cost and expense, to obtain and deliver to Purchaser, the Certificate of Occupancy or other governmental authorization. 13.

ROLLBACK TAXES. Any "rollback taxes" assessed or to be assessed against the Premises pursuant to the Farmland Assessment Act of 1964, N.J.S.A. 54:4-23.1, ET SEQ., shall be paid by Seller. If rollback taxes will be due with respect to the Premises but are not assessed at the Closing Date, a good-faith estimate of the amount of same shall be obtained by the parties from the tax assessor of the Township of Moorestown, at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to Closing, and Seller shall pay one hundred twenty-five (125%) percent of the amount of said estimate from the proceeds at Closing into escrow to be held by the Title Company until such time as the rollback tax assessment against the Premises is made. Upon Title Company's receipt of notice from Purchaser that said rollback taxes have been assessed against the Premises, Title Company shall, within three (3) business days thereof, pay said taxes to the Township of Moorestown. In the event the amount of the monies being held in escrow by Title Company are not sufficient to cover payment of said rollback taxes, then Seller shall promptly pay to Purchaser any additional monies that are due and payable by Seller in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Paragraph; and in the event the amount of the escrow monies are in excess of the amount of said rollback taxes, then Title Company shall disburse the remaining balance of the escrow funds to Seller after the amount of the escrow monies due to Purchaser have been disbursed 49 to the Township of Moorestown, in accordance with the terms and provisions of the immediately proceeding sentence. Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Purchaser in connection with Seller's failure to perform Seller's obligations under this Paragraph 26. 27. SELLER'S RIGHT TO EXCHANGE PROPERTY. (a) (i) Seller shall have the right, exercisable at least five (5) days prior to Closing, to elect to exchange the Property for other property of like kind ("Exchange Property") pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. (ii) If Seller elects to effect any exchange, it shall notify Purchaser as to all details thereof, and Purchaser shall execute a contract to purchase the Exchange Property in a form satisfactory to Seller (hereinafter called the "Exchange Contract"), and immediately thereafter shall assign all of its right, title and interest in and to the Exchange Contract to the Exchange Escrow Agent, as hereinafter defined. The funds required to pay the deposit under the Exchange Contract shall be provided to Purchaser by Seller or Exchange Escrow Agent. The Exchange Contract shall provide for the right of assignment by Purchaser to Exchange Escrow Agent and/or Seller without recourse, and that the seller of the Exchange Property shall look only to the deposit monies thereunder as liquidated damages, there being no liability on the part of Purchaser to said seller. Purchaser shall not be obligated to execute an Exchange Contract which would require Purchaser to be personally liable on any indebtedness or to incur any cost or expense which would increase Purchaser's liability beyond that liability incurred by Purchaser hereunder. (iii) In no event, however, shall the closing of title to the Property be delayed due to the inability of Seller to select an Exchange Property or close title thereto. 50 (b) (i) If Seller shall elect to exchange the Property pursuant to this Paragraph, whether or not an Exchange Property has been designated, as herein set forth, the Purchase Price, exclusive of the satisfaction of liens, payment of closing costs and other permitted expenses, shall be deposited with the Exchange Escrow Agent ("Escrow Account"), subject to the Exchange Escrow Agent executing an agreement reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser whereby Exchange Escrow Agent agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Paragraph 27, and shall not be paid to Seller at Closing. The Escrow Account shall be held by Exchange Escrow Agent in an interest bearing account, pursuant to the terms hereof. The interest earned upon the Escrow Account while being held by Exchange Escrow Agent shall be added to the Escrow Account and shall be paid to Seller at the closing of the Exchange Property. (ii) Purchaser appoints its title insurance company or such other title insurance company or other entity as Purchaser reasonably may designate, its agent, in order to effectuate the Exchange (the "Exchange Escrow Agent"). Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate with each other and Exchange Escrow Agent and promptly shall sign and deliver to Exchange Escrow Agent all documents reasonably deemed necessary by Seller in order to qualify this transaction pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 1031. (iii) Seller shall pay all fees relating to the Escrow Account, and all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses of Purchaser, if any, relating to the exchange transaction and in no event shall Purchaser be required to assume any liability thereunder. (iv) During the period that the Escrow Account is in existence, Seller shall not have any control, directly or indirectly, over the funds placed in the Escrow Account, except as may be expressly provided herein. (v) If, at the time of Closing, Seller shall not have designated the Exchange Property, then if within forty-five (45) days following Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser 51 and to Exchange Escrow Agent a designation of an Exchange Property which Seller desires to acquire by way of exchange for the Property transferred to Purchaser at Closing ("Designation"), the parties shall proceed as provided for herein. If there is no timely Designation, then Exchange Escrow Agent, on the forty-sixth (46th) day after Closing (or, if such day is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, on the first business day thereafter) shall disburse to Seller the Escrow Account and all interest earned thereon shall be paid to Purchaser. (vi) Any Designation of an Exchange Property shall include an Exchange Contract, or thereafter Seller shall provide Purchaser with an Exchange Contract, which Exchange Contract comply with the terms set forth in Subparagraph 27.(a). The parties acknowledge that there may be multiple Exchange Properties and that multiple Designations may be delivered, provided that each meets the conditions set forth herein and the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 and regulations thereunder. (vii) Upon receipt by Purchaser of an Exchange Contract, it shall execute and deliver the Exchange Contract to the seller of the Exchange Property ("Exchange Seller"), Seller and Exchange Escrow Agent. Thereafter, Purchaser shall assign its interest in the Exchange Contract to Exchange Escrow Agent, it being agreed that Purchaser shall not take title to any Exchange Property. (viii) Upon Purchaser executing any Exchange Contract, and in accordance therewith, Exchange Escrow Agent shall pay from the Escrow Account to Exchange Seller, or such other party as is provided for in the Exchange Contract, the amount of the deposit and all other monies required under the Exchange Contract or otherwise related to the transaction. (ix) Exchange Escrow Agent shall not be liable to either Seller or Purchaser in connection with its performance as Exchange Escrow Agent, except in the event of intentional wrongdoing or negligence. Exchange Escrow Agent is authorized 52 only to do those acts necessary and proper to effect the purpose of this Agreement. (x) The Exchange Escrow Agent shall use the Escrow Account, for payment of the deposit and all other payments due under the Exchange Contract to purchase the Exchange Property, plus closing costs, and for no other purpose. (xi) If the payment for the Exchange Property shall exceed the amount of the Escrow Account, Seller either shall: (i) deposit an amount equal to such excess with Exchange Escrow Agent no later than the day of the Exchange Property Closing; or (ii) cause or direct that the funds necessary to effectuate the Exchange Property Closing be paid directly to Exchange Seller at the Exchange Property Closing. (xii) At the Exchange Property Closing, the following shall be deposited or caused to be deposited with Exchange Escrow Agent: (i) a deed for the Exchange Property from Exchange Seller as grantor to Seller, as grantee; and (ii) any other documents or agreements necessary or incidental to the acquisition or conveyance of the Exchange Property. (xiii) When all documents and funds called for herein have been deposited with Exchange Escrow Agent and when a title policy can be issued on the Exchange Property to Seller, subject only to title exceptions approved by Seller, Exchange Escrow Agent shall record the deed, disburse the funds and deliver all other documents to Seller. All expenses, reimbursements and prorations in connection with the Exchange Property shall be governed by the provisions of the Exchange Contract, except as expressly set forth herein. (xiv) Purchaser makes no warranty with respect to the Exchange Property and Seller assumes all responsibility for title to the Exchange Property being good and marketable. Seller agrees to indemnify Purchaser and hold Purchaser harmless from any damages, liability, costs, expenses, claims, losses or demands (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs of litigation including those for enforcing this indemnity), arising out of or in any way related to the acquisition of the Exchange 53 Property. If the Exchange Property is subject to any mortgage, deed of trust or lease, Purchaser shall assume no liability or obligation with respect to said mortgage, deed of trust or lease. Purchaser makes no representations as to the tax consequences of any aspect of this transaction. (xv) If the Exchange Property as may be designated by Seller is not conveyed to Seller within the earlier of: (i) one hundred eighty (180) days after Closing; or (ii) the due date (determined with regard to extensions) of Seller's federal income tax return for the taxable year in which the transfer of the Property occurs or if no Exchange Property is designated within forty-five (45) days following Closing, then the Escrow Account shall be released to Seller, free of the escrow, and the obligations of Purchaser and Exchange Escrow Agent shall end. Notwithstanding failure of the Exchange Property to be conveyed to Seller as hereinabove set forth, the transfer of the Property to Purchaser shall not be subject to recession or revocation by Seller or Purchaser for any reason whatsoever.

This Guarantee shall not require any diligence, presentment, notice of non-performance or non-observance, or proof, or notice, or demand, whereby to charge Guarantor, all of which Guarantor hereby expressly waives. Guarantor expressly agrees that the validity of this Guarantee and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be terminated, affected or impaired by reason of the assertion by Purchaser against Seller of any of the rights or remedies reserved to Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement. With respect to the payment by Seller of any sums of money to Purchaser, including, without limitation, any damages payable to Purchaser arising from Seller's failure to timely perform Seller's Obligations, this Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection. With respect to non-monetary obligations of Seller, this Guarantee is a guarantee of performance of all of the Obligations of Seller under the Agreement. Guarantor hereby waives exhausting of recourse against Seller or any collateral and agrees that any action brought for the enforcement of rights under the Agreement or under this Guarantee may, in Purchaser's discretion, be brought against Guarantor and/or Seller jointly or severally. Guarantor hereby agrees that the failure of Purchaser to require strict performance of any of the terms of the Agreement, or any extension of time, concession, indulgence, or waiver of performance granted by Purchaser shall not release Guarantor from liability under this Guarantee. Guarantor hereby expressly agrees that no act or omission of any nature whatsoever by Seller or Purchaser shall release Guarantor from its obligations under this Guarantee and that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be primary, direct and unconditional irrespective of any circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety, including, without limitation, (i) any extensions, removal, settlement, compromise, waiver, or release in respect of any obligation of Seller under the Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise, (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which Guarantor may have at any time against Purchaser, Seller or any other person or entity, whether in connection herewith or with any unrelated transaction, (iii) the genuineness, validity, regularity, or enforceability of the Agreement or any other instrument between Seller and Purchaser, (iv) any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for the Obligations, (v) the release or substitution of any one or more of any Seller, endorser or Guarantor or any person or entity comprising any one of them, or (vi) any Obligation shall be determined to be void or voidable. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of this Guarantee, Guarantor hereby specifically waives: (a) any requirement that Purchaser protect, secure or insure any lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against Seller or any collateral or undertake any marshalling of assets; (b) the right to direct the order of enforcement or remedies, (c) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by Purchaser which in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects its subrogating, contribution or reimbursement rights or other rights to proceed against Seller or any collateral; (d) any duty on the part of Purchaser to disclose to Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operation or condition of the Properties (as defined in the Agreement) or Seller and its assets now known or hereafter known by Purchaser. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall survive the termination or expiration of the Agreement. Guarantor hereby agrees that any subsequent change, modification, amendment, extension or renewal of either of the Agreement or any of its respective terms, covenants or conditions, may be agreed or consented to by Purchaser or any successors in interest, without notice to or consent of Guarantor and without in any manner releasing or relieving Guarantor from its present or future liability under the Agreement or this Guarantee. Guarantor agrees that notwithstanding any change, modification, amendment, extension or renewal of the Agreement, the obligations hereunder of Guarantor shall extend and apply with respect to the full, timely, and faithful performance and observance of all the covenants, terms and conditions of the Agreement as modified. Neither Guarantor's obligation to make payment in accordance with the terms of this Guarantee nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, released or limited in any way by any impairment, modification, release, or limitation of the liability of Guarantor or Seller or their respective estate in bankruptcy, resulting from the obligation of any present or future provision of the Bankruptcy Code of the United State as amended from time to time or from the decision of any court interpreting the same, or by any insolvency, reorganization, or dissolution. The obligations of Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment or performance by or on behalf of any persons in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by Purchaser or any other holder or recipient of payment or performance of the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and Guarantor agrees that it will pay to Purchaser on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees of counsel) incurred by Purchaser in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. For so long as the Guarantee is in effect, Guarantor waives any rights that Guarantor may have against Seller by reason of any one or more payments or acts in compliance with the obligations of Guarantor under this Guarantee, and subordinates any liability or indebtedness of Seller held by Guarantor to the obligations of Seller to Purchaser under the Agreement. This Guarantee shall be in effect until Seller has fully and faithfully performed the Obligations of Seller in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. This Guarantee shall be binding upon the undersigned and its successors and assigns. Guarantor represents and warrants that this Guarantee has been duly executed and delivered, and constitutes Guarantor's valid and legally binding agreement in accordance with its terms. This Guarantee shall be governed by, interpreted under the laws of, and enforced in the courts of the State of New Jersey. Guarantor irrevocably appoints Seller as its agent for the service of process related to this Guarantee. Guarantor hereby waives the right to a jury trial in any action or proceeding that may hereafter be instituted by Purchaser against Guarantor with respect to this Guarantee. Guarantor shall pay to Purchaser, all of Purchaser's expenses, including but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in successfully enforcing the provisions of this Guarantee.
