                 C. Intangible Property. Any and all intangible personal

                 physical, environmental, legal and such other reasonable and
                 necessary tests and inspections of the Property and to make and
                 remove copies of any and all records and files regarding the
                 Property; provided, such tests and inspections are to be
                 conducted in such a way as to minimize interference with
                 Seller's business conducted at the Property and may only be
                 conducted with Seller's prior authorization, not to be
                 unreasonably withheld or delayed. Subject to the foregoing,
                 Buyer or representatives of Buyer shall have reasonable access
                 to the Property during normal business hours.

                      (ii) Buyer shall have the opportunity to review and
                 approve during the Due Diligence Period a current preliminary
                 title report for the Property ("Title Report") together with a
                 copy of each of the documents noted as exceptions in the Title
                 Report and a current ALTA survey of the Property; provided,
                 within the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall notify Seller of
                 any defects Buyer may, in its discretion, deem material (the
                 "Defects"). Seller shall have ten (10) days after Buyer informs
                 Seller of the Defects to notify Buyer in writing that Seller
                 will or will not correct any of the Defects. Seller may decide
                 to correct or not correct such Defects in its discretion. If
                 Seller decides not to correct any or all of the Defects, then,
                 within ten (10) days of receipt of such written notice from
                 Seller (and, if necessary, the Close of Escrow shall be
                 extended by the number of days necessary to give Buyer this
                 full ten-day period), Buyer shall have the option of
                 terminating this Agreement. In the event of such termination,
                 neither party shall have any further rights or obligations
                 under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer
                 hereby objects to any title exceptions for delinquent tax
                 liens, liens evidencing any loan secured by the Property or any
                 mechanics' liens affecting the Property; and Seller agrees to
                 cause all such liens to be eliminated from title to the
                 Property, or sufficient bond shall be posted by Seller to cause
                 the Title Company to insure title to the Property without any
                 such lien as an exception to title, prior to the Close of
                 Escrow. The title exceptions approved by Buyer, and any other
                 exceptions which Buyer expressly approves in writing, shall be

                 sole condition of the payment of its regularly scheduled
                 premium, an ALTA Owner's Form B1970 policy of title insurance,
                 with such endorsements as Buyer may reasonably require and with
                 such reinsurance or coinsurance as Buyer may require
                 (collectively, the "Title Policy"), insuring Buyer in the
                 amount of the Purchase Price that fee simple title to the Real
                 Property is vested in Buyer as of the Close of Escrow, subject
                 only to the standard printed conditions and exceptions and the
                 Permitted Exceptions.

                      (iv) Seller's performance of each and every covenant
                 required to be performed by Seller hereunder, and the truth and
                 correctness of each of Seller's representations and warranties
                 as set forth in Paragraph 6.B.

                      (v) Buyer shall have approved any material (in Buyer's
                 reasonable judgment) change to Seller's representations and
                 warranties reflected in the Closing Certificate (as defined in
                 Paragraph 5.A(vi)). Buyer shall have two (2) business days
                 following receipt of said certificate to approve or disapprove
                 any such changes (and if necessary, the Close of Escrow shall
                 be extended by the number of days necessary to give Buyer this
                 full two (2) business day period).

                      (vi) There shall have been no material adverse changes in
                 the physical condition of the Property or the financial
                 condition of the Seller.

                 B. Seller's Conditions. Seller's obligation to sell the
            Property shall be subject to and contingent upon Buyer's performance
            of each and every covenant required to be performed by Buyer
            hereunder and the truth and correctness of each of Buyer's
            representations and warranties, as set forth in Paragraph 6.C.

                 C. Failure or Waiver of Conditions Precedent. In the event any
            of the conditions set forth above in Paragraphs 4.A and 4.B are not
            fulfilled, waived or deemed waived (for any reason other than a
            default by either Buyer or Seller hereunder), this Agreement shall
            terminate, all rights and obligations hereunder of each party shall
            be at an end and the Earnest Money Deposit shall be returned to
            Buyer. Buyer or Seller may elect, at any time or times on or before
            the date specified for the satisfaction of the condition, to waive
            in writing the benefit of any of their respective conditions set
            forth in Paragraph 4.A or Paragraph 4.B above, as applicable.
            Buyer's failure to notify Seller in writing of the satisfaction of
            the condition set forth in Paragraph 4.A on or before the date
            specified for satisfaction shall be deemed to constitute a failure
            of such condition. In any event, Buyer's and Seller's consent to the
            Close of Escrow shall waive any remaining unfulfilled conditions
            (but such waiver shall not be deemed to waive any breach of any
            representation, warranty or covenant made by either party to this
            Agreement.)

            5. CLOSE OF ESCROW. Concurrently herewith, Seller and Buyer shall

contemplated by this Agreement. Buyer and Seller agree that such escrow shall be

            7. CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS AND PRORATIONS. The adjustments and
prorations set forth below shall be made at the Close of Escrow. For the
purposes of this Paragraph 7, the term "Proration Date" shall be defined as
11:59 p.m. on the day preceding the Close of Escrow.

                                       10
<PAGE>   15
                 A. Closing Costs. Seller and Buyer shall pay the Closing Costs
            identified above. All other closing costs incurred in connection
            with this transaction shall be apportioned in accordance with local
            custom.

                 B. Real Estate Taxes. All real and personal property taxes,
            installments of bonds and special taxes and assessments attributable
            to the Property shall be prorated as of the Proration Date based on
            a 365-day year and the assessed value of the Property in effect at
            the Close of Escrow. Seller shall pay all such real estate taxes,
            assessments, installments and special taxes attributable to periods
            through and including the Proration Date. If at any time after the
            Proration Date additional or supplemental real estate taxes, are
            assessed against the Property by reason of any event occurring prior
            to the Proration Date, or there is any rebate of such taxes, Buyer
            and Seller shall promptly re-prorate such taxes, and any amounts due
            from one party to the other shall be paid in cash at that time.

                 C. Utilities. Seller shall pay, through and including the
            Proration Date, and after the Close of Escrow as lessee under the
            Lease, all utility charges attributable to the Property.

                 D. Calculations for Closing. Seller and Buyer shall provide
            Escrow Holder with a preliminary calculation of prorations no later
            than three (3) days prior to the Proration Date and a final
            calculation no later than one (1) day prior to the Proration Date.
            The final calculation shall be executed by each party and may be
            relied upon by Escrow Holder in completing the closing adjustments
            and prorations. In the event incomplete information is available, or
            estimates have been utilized to calculate prorations as of the
            Proration Date, any prorations relating thereto shall be further
            adjusted and completed outside of Escrow within sixty (60) days
            after the Proration Date or as and when complete information becomes
            available to Buyer and Seller. Any adjustments to initial estimated
            prorations which are required upon review of such complete
            information shall be made by Buyer and Seller, with due diligence
            and cooperation, by prompt cash payment to the party entitled to a
            credit as a result of such adjustments. Any errors or adjustments in
            calculations of the foregoing adjustments shall be corrected or
            adjusted as soon as practicable after the Close of Escrow; provided,
            however, the provisions hereof shall survive the Close of Escrow for
            not more than eighteen (18) months after the Close of Escrow.

                 E. California Withholding Requirement. As a further condition
            precedent to the Close of Escrow, Seller and, if appropriate, Arrow
            shall deliver to Title Company: (i) in the event Seller's permanent
            place of business is located in California or Seller is a resident
            of California, a completed and executed California Form 590
            "Certificate of California Residence (Individuals) or Permanent
            Place of Business (Corporation)" certifying, among other things,
            that Seller's permanent place of business is located in California
            or Seller is a resident of California or (ii) in the event Seller's
            permanent

                                       11
<PAGE>   16
            place of business is not located in California or Seller is not a
            resident of California, a completed and executed California Form
            597, certifying, among other things, that Seller's permanent place
            of business is not located in California or Seller is not a resident
            of California. In the event subparagraph (ii) is applicable to
            Seller, Seller acknowledges and agrees that Title Company shall (a)
            be entitled to withhold from Seller an amount equal to three and
            one-third percent (3-1/3%) of the Purchase Price, and (b) pay such
            withheld amounts to the Franchise Tax Board of California within
            twenty (20) days following the Close of Escrow.

            8. CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

                 A. Material Casualty or Condemnation. If prior to Close of
            Escrow (i) the Property shall sustain damage caused by fire or other
            casualty which (a) would cost in excess of an amount equal to the
            Deposit to repair or replace, or (b) would take more than sixty (60)
            days from the date of damage or destruction to repair or replace, or
            (ii) if a taking or condemnation of any portion of the Property has
            occurred or is threatened which would materially adversely affect
            the Property or would materially and negatively affect the aesthetic
            quality of, or any access to, the Property, Buyer may, at its
            option, terminate this Agreement within five (5) days after receipt
            of written notice of such event (and, if necessary, the Close of
            Escrow shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give
            Buyer this full five-day (5-day) period). If Buyer does not provide
            said termination notice within such period, the Close of Escrow
            shall take place as provided herein with a credit against the
            Purchase Price in an amount equal to the difference between any
            insurance proceeds or condemnation awards actually received by Buyer
            on account of such occurrence and the cost of repair or replacement,
            in the event of a casualty, or the diminution in value of the
            Property by reason of a taking.

                 B. Immaterial Casualty or Condemnation. If prior to Close of
            Escrow the Property shall sustain damage caused by fire or other
            casualty which is not described in Paragraph 8.A, or a taking or
            condemnation has occurred, or is threatened, which is not described
            in Paragraph 8.A, the Close of Escrow shall take place as provided
            in this Agreement with a credit against the Purchase Price equal to
            the difference between any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards
            actually received by Buyer on account of such occurrence and the
            cost of repair and replacement (if not already performed and paid by
            Seller), in the event of a casualty, or the diminution in value of
            the Property by reason of a taking. At Close of Escrow, Seller shall
            assign to Buyer all rights or interest in and to any insurance
            proceeds or condemnation awards which may be due to Seller on
            account of any such occurrence; provided Seller may recoup from such
            proceeds any reasonable and

                                       12
<PAGE>   17
            documented sums expended by Seller in repairing damage or replacing
            damaged property.

            9. INDEMNIFICATION. Each party hereto, including Arrow, shall
indemnify and hold harmless the other party (with counsel acceptable to such
party) from and against any loss, cost, expense, claim, demand, liabilities or
damages, including reasonable attorneys' fees, attributable to any breach or
default by such party of any of its representations, warranties or covenants
contained in this Agreement. Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller and hold Seller
harmless from all costs, expenses, losses and claims arising directly from
Buyer's activities at the Real Property during the Due Diligence Period.

            10. DEFAULT BY BUYER.

                 A. BEFORE DELIVERY OF EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT. Except as set
            forth in the last sentence of Paragraph 9, in the event of a default
            by Buyer under this Agreement prior to delivery of the Earnest Money
            Deposit to Escrow Holder, neither party shall have any further
            rights or obligations hereunder except to a return of those
            documents or other items previously delivered to the other party.

                 B. AFTER DELIVERY OF EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT. ONLY AFTER THE
            EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT IS DELIVERED BY BUYER TO ESCROW HOLDER, IN THE
            EVENT OF THE FAILURE TO CLOSE ESCROW DUE TO DEFAULT BY BUYER IN THE
            PERFORMANCE OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, SELLER SHALL HAVE THE
            RIGHT TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT FORTHWITH AND NEITHER PARTY SHALL
            HAVE FURTHER OBLIGATIONS TO THE OTHER HEREUNDER EXCEPT SELLER'S
            RIGHT TO OBTAIN IMMEDIATE DISBURSEMENT OF AND TO RETAIN THE EARNEST
            MONEY DEPOSIT. SUCH RETENTION OF THE EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT IS
            INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER. SAID AMOUNT
            SHALL BE THE FULL, AGREED AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR THE BREACH OF
            THIS AGREEMENT BY BUYER, ALL OTHER CLAIMS TO DAMAGES OR OTHER
            REMEDIES AT LAW OR EQUITY BEING HEREIN EXPRESSLY WAIVED BY SELLER.
            THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE ACTUAL DAMAGES WHICH WOULD RESULT
            TO SELLER AS A RESULT OF SUCH FAILURE WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT
            TO ESTABLISH. IN ADDITION, BUYER DESIRES TO HAVE A LIMITATION PUT
            UPON ITS POTENTIAL LIABILITY TO SELLER IN THE EVENT THAT THIS
            TRANSACTION SHALL FAIL TO CLOSE. BY PLACING THEIR RESPECTIVE
            INITIALS IN THE SPACES HEREINAFTER PROVIDED, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE
            THAT, AFTER THE EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT IS DELIVERED BY BUYER TO
            ESCROW HOLDER, UPON A DEFAULT BY BUYER UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS
            AGREEMENT, SELLER SHALL ONLY BE ENTITLED TO LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IN
            THE AMOUNT OF THE EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT.

                        BUYER (/s/ EK)      AND SELLER  (/s/ RK) AGREE.

            11. DEFAULT BY SELLER. In the event of a default by Seller and/or
Arrow under this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to pursue any remedy

                                       13
<PAGE>   18

available to Buyer at law or equity, including, without limitation, specific
performance of this Agreement and consequential damages.

            12. MISCELLANEOUS

                 A. Leasing Commissions. Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer
            harmless from any leasing commissions payable in connection with any
            leases affecting the Property. With respect to the Lease, each party
            hereby agrees to indemnify and defend the other (by counsel
            acceptable to the party seeking indemnification) against and hold
            the other harmless from and against any and all loss, damage,
            liability or expense, including costs and reasonable attorneys' fees
            resulting from any claims for Real Estate Compensation (defined
            below) by any person or entity based upon such acts.

                 B. Brokerage Commissions. Each party to this Agreement warrants
            to the other that no person or entity can properly claim a right to
            a real estate commission, finder's fee or other real estate
            brokerage type compensation (collectively, "Real Estate
            Compensation") based upon the acts of that party with respect to the
            transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Each party hereby agrees
            to indemnify and defend the other (by counsel acceptable to the
            party seeking indemnification) against and hold the other harmless
            from and against any and all loss, damage, liability or expense,
            including costs and reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting from any
            claims for Real Estate Compensation by any person or entity based
            upon such acts.

                 C. No Liability. Seller agrees that, except for the Lease,
            Buyer shall have no liability as a successor in interest for any
            contracts or agreements entered into by Seller in connection with
            its ownership or operation of the Property or the use, occupancy or
            construction of the improvements located thereon, including, but not
            limited to, the Service Contracts; and Seller shall fully perform
            all of its commitments and obligations under any such contracts and
            agreements and shall indemnify and defend Buyer against (by counsel
            acceptable to Buyer) and hold Buyer harmless from any and all
            losses, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses, including, without
            limitation, reasonable counsel fees, brokerage commissions and lease
            assumptions under any leases affecting the Property.

                 D. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of every
            provision of this Agreement.

                 E. Notices. Whenever Escrow Holder or any party hereto shall
            desire to give or serve upon the other any notice, demand, request
            or other communication, each such notice, demand, request or other
            communication shall be in writing and shall be given or served upon
            the other party by personal service or by certified, registered or
            Express United States Mail, or Federal Express or other nationally
            recognized

                                       14
<PAGE>   19
            commercial courier, postage prepaid, addressed as set forth above.
            Any such notice, demand, request or other communication shall be
            deemed to have been received upon the earlier of personal delivery
            thereof or three (3) business days after having been mailed as
            provided above, as the case may be.

                 F. Attorneys' Fees. If Buyer or Seller is required to employ
            counsel to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement or for damages
            by reason of any alleged breach of this Agreement or for a
            declaration of rights hereunder or to enforce the judgment of any
            judicial or quasi-judicial body with respect to the terms of this
            Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its
            reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs incurred.

                 G. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon
            the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of
            Seller, Arrow and Buyer; neither Buyer, Arrow nor Seller shall have
            the right to assign its respective rights hereunder to any party.

                 H. Captions. Paragraph titles or captions contained herein are
            inserted as a matter of convenience and for reference, and in no way
            define, limit, extend or describe the scope of this Agreement.

                 I. Exhibits. All exhibits attached hereto shall be incorporated
            herein by reference as if set out herein in full.

                 J. Binding Effect. Regardless of which party prepared or
            communicated this Agreement, this Agreement shall be of binding
            effect between Buyer and Seller only upon its execution by an
            authorized representative of each such party.

                 K. Construction. The parties acknowledge that each party and
            its counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the
            normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are
            to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in
            the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendment or exhibits
            hereto.

                 L. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several
            counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of such
            counterparts shall constitute one such Agreement.

                 M. Further Assurances. Buyer and Seller shall make, execute,
            and deliver such documents and undertake such other and further acts
            as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the intent of the
            parties hereto.

                 N. No Merger. The delivery of the Deed and any other documents
            and instruments by Seller and the acceptance and recordation thereof
            by Buyer shall not effect a merger, and the covenants,
            representations and 

                                       15
<PAGE>   20
            warranties by Seller, Arrow and Buyer shall survive the Close of
            Escrow for a period of twenty-four (24) months.

                 O. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and
            construed in accordance with, the laws of the State wherein the Real
            Property is located.

                 P. Confidentiality. No party to this Agreement shall disclose
            to any third party (except their respective attorneys, accountants
            and/or other financial advisors) any information, data, idea, report
            or document which relates to the Property or the acquisition and/or
            sale of the Property and each party agrees to keep all such matters
            confidential until the consummation of the transactions contemplated
            by this Agreement.

                 Q. Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the entire
            agreement between Buyer, Seller and Arrow in connection with this
            transaction. This Agreement cannot be modified except in writing
            signed by all parties.

            IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Buyer, Seller and Arrow have executed and
