collectively referred to herein as the "Disclosure Information" and may be used by Purchaser in such manner as it desires.

Survey and Title Matters.

Survey. Purchaser may, at its cost, within the Due Diligence Period obtain a current survey of the Real Property prepared by a registered surveyor, licensed in the State of Florida ("Survey"). The Survey shall identify the boundaries of the Real Property and locate all improvements situated upon the Real Property and shall (at Purchaser's option) locate and identify with the relevant recording information all utility lines and access, easements, streets, rights-of-way and other man-made objects; and locate all other matters not of record which are ascertainable by a visual inspection of the Real Property; provide the precise acreage of the Real Property; and show such other matters thereon as Purchaser may elect. The Survey shall be certified to the Purchaser, Seller, Escrow Agent, Purchaser's attorney and the Title Company (as defined below), and shall certify that such Survey was prepared in accordance with the minimum technical requirements and standards promulgated by the Florida Board of Professional Surveyors and Mappers, Chapter 61G17-6 of the Florida Administrative Code and Section 427.027 of the Florida Statutes (or such higher standards as Purchaser may elect). The Survey shall, at Purchaser's option, also contain such other matters as are required by the Purchaser or the Title Company. The Survey may include a certification setting forth the number of square feet situated within the perimeter of the Real Property.

Title Insurance. On or before Fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, Seller shall obtain and deliver to Purchaser a commitment for an owner's policy of title insurance without standard or general exceptions covering the Property and covering, as insured easements, any common area tracts ("Common Areas") and easements benefiting the Property or the Common Areas as shown on the Plat (as that term is defined below) ("Title Commitment") from a title company reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser ("Title Company"). The Title Commitment shall be in the amount of the Purchase Price, effective as of a date not more than twenty (20) days prior to the Effective Date, and shall have attached to it full size legible (or stamped best available) copies of the (1) vesting deed, (2) all documents listed as exceptions in Schedule B-II of the Title Commitment, (3) the plat recorded in Plat Book 85, Page 163 of the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida (the "Plat"), and (4) all documents referenced on the Plat that have been recorded in the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida.

At Closing and as a condition to Purchaser's obligation to pay the Purchase Price and otherwise close the transaction contemplated hereby, the Title Company shall irrevocably commit to the issuance of an ALTA Owners Policy of Title Insurance (10/17/92) (with Florida Modifications) (hereinafter, the "Title Policy") in the amount of the Purchase Price, insuring fee simple title to the Property in Purchaser, in conformity with the Title Commitment, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (as defined herein). In no event shall the Title Policy be subject to the standard or general exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall be responsible for furnishing the Title Company with a survey acceptable to the Title Company for

the purposes of deleting the standard or general exceptions for matters which would be disclosed by an accurate survey and inspection of the Property. Purchaser shall pay the sum of $5,000.00 towards the cost of the Title Policy, the balance shall be paid by Seller.

Title and Survey Objection. Prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall provide Seller with notice (hereinafter the "Title Defects Notice") of any matters set forth in the Title Commitment or Survey which are unacceptable to Purchaser ("Title Defects"). Any matters set forth in the Title Commitment or Survey to which Purchaser does not timely object shall be referred to collectively herein as the "Permitted Exceptions." It is specifically understood and agreed that Purchaser hereby objects to and will require the removal, satisfaction, correction or deletion of (i) all requirements set forth on Schedule B-I of the Title Commitment, (ii) all standard and general exceptions set forth in the Title Commitment; (iii) any gap, overlap, boundary dispute, hiatus or encroachment identified on the Survey which affects the Property or any adjacent properties; (iv) any mortgages or other monetary liens encumbering all or any portion of the Property; and (v) rights of any tenants or other occupants of the Real Property or improvements thereon. At Closing, Seller shall provide the Title Company with such affidavits or other documents as are necessary to enable the Title Company to remove the standard and general exceptions from the Title Policy. Seller shall have Thirty (30) days after receipt of the Title Defects Notice from Purchaser within which to use its best efforts to cure such Title Defects to the satisfaction of the Purchaser and the Title Company; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated to expend more than Thirty-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($35,000.00) to effectuate cure of the Title Defects (the "Cure Money"). In the event Seller, despite use of its best efforts, and despite actual documented expenditure of such portion of the Cure Money necessary to support its best efforts, fails to cure any Title Defect within such Thirty (30)-day period, then Purchaser may thereafter, at its option:

terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Earnest Money shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and the Agreement shall be deemed null and void and of no force and effect, and no party hereto shall have any further rights, obligations or liability hereunder;

ii.

accept title to the Property subject to such Title Defects; provided, however, that Seller shall, until the Closing Date, continue to use its best efforts to cure such Title Defects, with Seller not being obligated to expend more than the total amount of the Cure Money in doing so.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Purchaser acknowledges that those items identified on Exhibit “C” attached hereto and made a part hereof shall not be the basis for a Title Defect Notice and shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions.

Due Diligence Period.

Purchaser shall have Sixty (60) days from the date Seller delivers the Disclosure Information to determine, in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion, whether or not

the Property is suitable and satisfactory for Purchaser's intended use ("Due Diligence Period"). Purchaser may, at Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion, extend the Due Diligence Period up to an additional Thirty (30) days by providing written notice to Seller, prior to the expiration of the initial Thirty (30) days, of Purchaser's intent to extend the Due Diligence Period to conclude its inspection and analysis of the Property as herein provided. If Purchaser so extends the Due Diligence Period, all references herein to "Due Diligence Period" shall refer to the Due Diligence Period as so extended and Purchaser shall pay to Seller at Closing, and in addition to the Purchase Price, the sum of $600.00 per day for each day that the Due Diligence Period is actually extended, up to the maximum Thirty (30) day extension provided herein ("Extra Charge"). If Purchaser elects to extend the Due Diligence Period as provided herein, and concludes its tests and examinations of the Property before expiration of the maximum Thirty (30) day extension period permitted above, Purchaser shall notify Seller of the date that Purchaser actually concluded the Due Diligence Period so that an accurate calculation of the Extra Charge can be made and paid over by Purchaser at the Closing (the "Due Diligence Termination Notice"). If Purchaser elects to extend the Due Diligence Period as permitted above, concludes the Due Diligence Period on or before (as evidenced by Due Diligence Termination Notice) expiration of the maximum Thirty (30) day period, and the Closing (as that term is defined below) occurs less that fifteen (15) days after expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then the Extra Charge shall be reduced by $600.00 per day for each day that the Closing occurs prior to the fifteen (15) day period; provided, however, that said $600.00 per day reduction of the Extra Charge shall not exceed the amount of Extra Charge actually attributable to Purchaser extending the Due Diligence Period.

During the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser may conduct any tests and examinations of the Property, at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, which Purchaser deems advisable, including, without limitation, soil boring tests, groundwater samples, geotechnical, environmental tests, exploratory test trenching, and any tests to determine the existence of Hazardous Substances. As used herein, "Hazardous Substances" shall mean and include all hazardous and toxic substances, wastes or materials, any pollutants or contaminates (including, without limitation, asbestos and raw materials which include hazardous components), or other similar substances, or materials which are included under or regulated by any local, state or federal law, rule, ordinance or regulation pertaining to environmental regulation, contamination or clean-up. Seller hereby grants to Purchaser the right of access during the term hereof to any consultants, designers, contractors, engineers, surveyors or other agents or representatives used by Seller in generating or assembling any of the Disclosure Information or other due diligence materials relating to the Property (collectively, "Consultants"). To assist Purchaser in obtaining access to the Consultants, Seller agrees to (i) include a list (including contact names and telephone numbers) of the Consultants in the Disclosure Information; and (ii) waive any actual or perceived conflict of interest in Purchaser having access to the Consultants and their information, knowledge and work product related to the Property during the term of this Agreement, and to any of the Consultants subsequently being employed by Purchaser in connection with Purchaser's acquisition and/or development of the Property. In the event Purchaser notifies

{O1117744;9}

Seller in writing within the Due Diligence Period that Purchaser is not satisfied, in Purchaser's sole discretion, with Purchaser's inspection of the Property and that Purchaser does not intend to proceed with the purchase of the Property, then the Earnest Money shall be promptly returned to Purchaser, less the Extra Charge in the event the Due Diligence Period was extended, and this Agreement shall automatically terminate and be null and void and neither party shall have any further liability or obligation hereunder. Purchaser shall assume all risks involved in the entry upon the Property for the performance of such activities and shall defend, indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any loss or expense incurred due to bodily injury or death to persons or damage to property or parties arising out of or in connection with the exercise of Purchaser’s rights hereunder, provided, however, that such loss or expense does not occur due to the negligence, acts or omissions of Seller, or any of its employees, agents or representatives.

Upon the expiration of the Due Diligence Period the Earnest Money shall become non-refundable and shall be applied to the Purchase Price at Closing, except (i) in the event Seller fails or refuses to close the sale of the Property, or (ii) in the event Seller fails or refuses to deliver marketable title or cure a Title Defect(s), in accordance with Section 5, or (iii) failure of a Condition Precedent (as defined below), or (iv) in the event of Seller default hereunder, or (v) as otherwise provided herein.

Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the documents to be executed by Seller at Closing as contemplated by Section 8 hereof, other than the Easement Agreement (the "Closing Documents"), the Property is being sold and conveyed to Purchaser “as is” and “with all faults.” Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Closing Documents, Seller has not made, does not make, and hereby disclaims any and all express or implied representations and warranties regarding or relating to: the condition of the Property; its suitability for any particular purpose; the susceptibility to flooding of the Land; the value or marketability of the Property; the projected income or expenses of the Property; the zoning classification, or use and occupancy restrictions applicable to the Property; the current manner of operation of the Property; the compliance of the Property with environmental laws, and laws and regulations relating to hazardous substances and toxic wastes; and all matters affecting or relating to the Property. Purchaser acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Closing Documents, no such representations or warranties, express or implied, have been made by Seller, or by any other person representing or purporting to represent Seller. Purchaser acknowledges that any representations or warranties made in Section 9 of this Agreement shall survive Closing for nine (9) months after Closing as set forth in Section 9 of this Agreement.

By proceeding with the acquisition of the Property following the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser confirms that it has investigated all of the matters relating to the Property to its satisfaction, and is acquiring the Property in “as is” condition, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and Seller's representation and warranties set forth in Section 9 of this Agreement.

implied, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Closing Documents, Purchaser acknowledges and represents that it has factored the “as is” condition of the Property into the price it has hereby agreed to pay for the Property. From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser does hereby waive any and all claims, demands, causes of action and other liabilities of or against Seller with respect to the condition of the Property in violation of federal, state or other applicable law, except for claims made by Purchaser within nine (9) months after Closing as provided in Section 9, arising from the breach of a representation or warranty made by Seller in Section 9, and except for claims made by Purchaser arising from the breach of a representation or warranty made by Seller in any of the Closing Documents. The terms and covenants of this Subsection 6.D. shall survive the Closing.

In the event any of the foregoing Condition(s) Precedent or other conditions to this Agreement are not fulfilled or waived by Purchaser prior to the date of Closing, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement, regardless of whether such right is otherwise expressly provided above or extend the Closing Date until such time as the Condition(s) Precedent are met (without losing its rights to thereafter terminate this Agreement), but in no event longer than thirty (30) days. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event of any such termination, this Agreement shall become null and void and of no further force or effect with neither party having any further rights or liabilities hereunder, and the Escrow Agent shall promptly return to Purchaser the Earnest Money, less the Extra Charge in the event the Due Diligence Period was extended.

Closing Date and Closing Procedures and Requirements.

Closing Date. The Closing shall be held on or before the Fifteenth (15th) day after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period ("Closing Date"). The Closing shall take place at the offices of Akerman Senterfitt, Esperante Building, 222 Lakeview Avenue, Suite 400, West Palm Beach, Florida.

In the event that any of the representations and warranties of this Section 9 which are qualified “to the best of Seller’s knowledge” would be inaccurate at Closing after the deletion of the Seller’s knowledge qualification, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement, receive a full refund of the Earnest Money, and be relieved of any duties, obligations and liability hereunder Any action by Purchaser against Seller for a breach or failure of any of the representations or warranties in this Section 9 or elsewhere in this Agreement or in the Closing Documents must be commenced within said nine (9) month period. At the end of the nine (9) month period, Seller shall have no further liability with respect to the representations and warranties in this Section 9 except for those, if any, with respect to which suit has been filed in a court of competent jurisdiction within said nine (9) month period. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9 to the contrary, if, between the Effective Date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Seller learns of information such that any of Seller’s representations and warranties in this Section 9 are or have become materially inaccurate, Seller shall provide Purchaser with written notice thereof. Purchaser shall then have ten (10) days after receipt of such notice in which to elect, as its sole remedy, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Seller, or to accept such changed representation or warranty and at Closing Seller’s representations and warranties in this Section 9 shall be deemed modified accordingly. If Purchaser exercises its option to terminate

{O1117744;9}

this Agreement, the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties shall be without further duties or obligations to one another under this Agreement, except for those obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. If Seller has not received any written notice of election from Purchaser within the aforesaid ten (10) day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to accept such changed representations and/or warranties. If Purchaser learns that any of Seller’s representations and warranties in this Section 9 are or have become materially inaccurate, and Purchaser closes nonetheless, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted such failure of representation or warranty and Seller shall have no liability with respect thereto.

10.

Seller's Affirmative Covenants. In addition to the other covenants and undertakings set forth herein, Seller makes the following affirmative covenants, each of which shall survive Closing hereunder:

From and after the date hereof and until physical possession of the Property has been delivered to Purchaser, Seller will keep and maintain all of the Property in good order and condition and will comply with and abide by all laws, ordinances, regulations and restrictions affecting the Property or its use. Seller will pay all taxes and assessments prior to the due date thereof, will not commit or permit any waste or nuisance with respect thereto, and will not undertake or permit any grading or any cutting or removal of landscaping, trees or vegetation thereon.

At Closing, Seller shall transfer, assign, and convey to Purchaser all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to all utilities and utility commitments which service or pertain in any manner to the Property, including, without limitation, any water or sewer connections or reservations which have been allocated in any manner to the Property or to Seller as owner of the Property and Seller's position on any waiting list relating to any such water or sewer connections or reservations.

From and after the Effective Date, Seller shall not offer to sell the Property to any other person or entity or enter into any verbal or written agreement, understanding, or contract relating to the sale of the Property; provided, however, that Seller shall be permitted to accept "backup bids" which shall only become effective and binding on Seller in the event that Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.A. hereof. Any backup bid(s) accepted by Seller shall contain express language notifying the backup bidder(s) that Seller is under contract to sell the Property to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

Seller shall take such other actions and perform such other obligations as are required or contemplated hereunder including, without limitation, all obligations pertaining to satisfaction of any contingencies of this Agreement or conditions precedent to performance by Purchaser of its obligations hereunder.

Seller's Initials: __________

Purchaser's Initials: __________

{O1117744;9}

From and after the date hereof, Seller shall not, without obtaining Purchaser's prior written consent in each instance, create, incur, consent to or permit to exist, any liens, leases, licenses, special assessments, easements, reservations, restrictions or encumbrances other than the mortgages, easements, assessments, reservations, and restrictions or record on the date hereof, and Seller hereby covenants that Seller shall comply with and abide by all of the terms and provisions of any of the foregoing existing as of the date hereof, through the date of Closing hereunder. Nothing in this subsection shall modify, diminish, or alter the representations and warranties contained in Section 9 hereof.

Seller shall provide to Purchaser copies of any and all notices received from governmental agencies or authorities with respect to the Property from and after the Effective Date.

Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date Seller shall not enter into any new leases, service agreements, management agreements or other agreements with respect to the Property or any portion thereof.

11.

Defaults. In the event Seller breaches any warranty or representation contained in this Agreement or fails to comply with or perform any of the conditions to be complied with or any of the covenants, agreements or obligations to be performed by Seller under the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and such failure (other than failure to close on the sale of the Property when required hereunder which shall require no notice and cure right) continues for TEN (10) days following notice thereof in writing from Purchaser, Purchaser, in Purchaser's sole discretion, shall be entitled to an immediate refund of the Earnest Money from Escrow Agent and to (i) exercise any and all rights and remedies available to Purchaser at law and in equity, including without limitation the right of specific performance; and/or (ii) terminate this Agreement; and/or (iii) grant, from time to time, such extensions of time as Purchaser deems proper under the circumstances without thereby waiving any other remedy permitted in this Agreement. Upon any such termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11, the Earnest Money shall be immediately refunded by Escrow Agent to Purchaser and this Agreement and all rights and obligations created hereunder shall be deemed null and void and of no further force or effect. In the event Purchaser fails to comply with or perform any of the conditions to be complied with or any of the covenants, agreements or obligations to be performed by Purchaser under the terms and provisions of this Agreement, that are not due to Seller’s default and such failure continues for TEN (10) days following notice thereof in writing from Seller, then Seller may as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy for any such default, upon giving written notice to Purchaser and Escrow Agent as herein provided, receive the Earnest Money actually paid to the date of such default from Escrow Agent as full liquidated damages, whereupon this Agreement and all rights and obligations created hereby shall automatically terminate and be null and void and of no further force or effect whatsoever. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that it would be difficult or impossible to ascertain the actual damages suffered by Seller as a result of any default by Purchaser and agree that such liquidated damages are a reasonable estimate of

Seller's Initials: __________

Purchaser's Initials: __________

{O1117744;9}

such damages. Seller further acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser was materially induced to enter into this Agreement in reliance upon Seller's agreement to accept such Earnest Money as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy and that Purchaser would not have entered into this Agreement but for Seller's agreement to so limit Seller's remedies. In the event there is more than one Seller the obligations hereunder imposed upon the Seller shall be joint and several, and all agreements, representations, warranties, and covenants herein contained shall be binding on their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and, to the extent permitted, assigns of the Seller.

12.

Possession of Property. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser full and exclusive possession of the Property on the Closing Date.

13.

Condemnation. In the event the Property or any portion or portions thereof shall be taken or condemned or be the subject of a bona fide threat of condemnation by any governmental authority or other entity prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the option of either (i) terminating this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Seller and the Escrow Agent whereupon the Earnest Money shall be immediately refunded by Escrow Agent to Purchaser, and this Agreement and all rights and obligations created hereunder shall be null and void and of no further force or effect; or (ii) requiring Seller to convey the remaining portion or portions of the Property to Purchaser pursuant to the terms and provisions hereof and to transfer and assign to Purchaser at the Closing all of the right, title and interest of Seller in and to any award made or to be made by reason of such condemnation. Seller and Purchaser hereby further agree that Purchaser shall have the right to participate in all negotiations with any such governmental authority relating to the Property or to the compensation to be paid for any portion or portions thereof condemned by such governmental authority or other entity.

14.

Real Estate Commission.

Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller that Purchaser is not represented by any agent, broker or finder in regard to the sale and purchase of the Property contemplated herein. Purchaser hereby indemnifies Seller and agrees to hold Seller free and harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage and expense, including, but not limited to, attorney's fees and costs of litigation, both prior to and on appeal, which Seller shall ever suffer or incur because of any claim by any agent, broker or finder engaged by Purchaser, whether or not meritorious, for any fee, commission or other compensation with respect to this Agreement or to the sale and Purchase of the Property contemplated hereby.

Further, Escrow Agent shall have the right at any time after a dispute between Seller and Purchaser has arisen, to pay the Earnest Money held by it into any court of competent jurisdiction for payment to the appropriate party, whereupon Escrow Agent's obligations hereunder shall terminate. Seller and Purchaser agree that the status of Purchaser's counsel as Escrow Agent under this Agreement does not disqualify such law firm from representing the Purchaser in connection with this transaction and in any disputes that may arise between Seller and Purchaser concerning this transaction, including any dispute or controversy with respect to the Earnest Money.

17.

General Provisions.

SANITARY SEWER EASEMENT AGREEMENT

THIS SANITARY SEWER EASEMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of this ____ day of __________, 2007 (the "Effective Date"), by and among WATERTOWER BUSINESS PARK, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, having a mailing address of 5601 Corporate Way, Suite 404, West Palm Beach, FL 33407 (“Seller”), and FLORIDA PUBLIC UTILITIES COMPANY, a Florida corporation, having a mailing address of 401 South Dixie Highway, West Palm Beach, FL 33401-5866 (“Purchaser”).

R E C I T A L S:

On the Effective Date, Seller has sold to Purchaser, and Purchaser is now the record title owner of, that certain real property located in Palm Beach County, Florida, which is more particularly described on Exhibit “A” attached hereto (the “Purchaser Parcel”).

Seller is the record title owner of that certain real property adjacent to and immediately north of the Purchaser Parcel, which is more particularly described on Exhibit “B” attached hereto (the “Seller Parcel”; the Purchaser Parcel and the Seller Parcel shall hereinafter be sometimes referred to as the “Property”).

As a condition to Seller conveying the Purchaser Parcel to Purchaser, Purchaser agreed to grant to Seller a perpetual easement for the installation, operation and maintenance of an underground sanitary sewer utility line for the benefit of the Seller Parcel, over, under, across and through a portion of the Purchaser Parcel, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Ten Dollars ($10.00), and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Seller and Purchaser, intending to be legally bound, hereby mutually agree as follows:

Recitals. The foregoing recitals and the exhibits attached hereto are true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference as though set forth in detail.

{O1117744;9}

Sewer Easement. Purchaser hereby grants to Seller and its present and future mortgagees, grantees, successors and assigns, a perpetual, non-exclusive ____ foot (___') wide underground easement (the “Easement”) over, under, across and through that portion of the Purchaser Parcel described in Exhibit “C” attached hereto (the “Easement Parcel”) for the purpose of installing and constructing, and subsequent repairs and maintenance of, underground sanitary sewer facilities required to serve any development to be constructed solely, exclusively and entirely upon the Seller Parcel, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (collectively, the "Sewer Improvements"). Seller shall perform the installation and construction and subsequent repairs and maintenance of the Sewer Improvements (collectively, the "Work") at its sole cost and expense, as and when required, in a good and workmanlike manner, expeditiously performed and free and clear of all Liens (as that term is defined below), claims and encumbrances, and in accordance with all Approvals (as that term is defined below) and all applicable laws, rules, orders and regulations (collectively, "Applicable Laws"). Further, while performing any Work Seller shall use its best good faith efforts not to disturb or unreasonably interfere with the use of the Purchaser Parcel by Purchaser and its present and future mortgagees, grantees, successors and assigns, guests, agents, contractors and invitees unless such disturbance is required to perform Work on the Sewer Improvements. Seller, in performing any Work, shall complete the same as expeditiously as is reasonably practical and with the minimal amount of interference to the Purchaser Parcel as reasonably practical. Seller, in performing any Work, shall, at its cost and expense, repair any damage to any improvements on Purchaser Parcel and restore any disturbed areas thereon to substantially the same condition as existed prior to such disturbance (including, but not limited to, any driveways, sidewalks, walkways, fences, roads, parking lots, trees, bushes, other landscaping and groundcover, and drainage areas, retention areas or drainage ditches). Further, Seller shall undertake such repairs and restoration promptly after the completion of any Work or during the continuation of any Work, if possible. Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for all safety and security measures in connection with any Work. Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for paying any connection fees, impact fees, tap or tapping fees and utility fees (collectively, the "Impact Fees") required by any governmental and quasi-governmental authorities in connection with the installation, construction and use of the Sewer Improvements, including, but not limited to, any required by Seacoast Utility Authority, and its successor and/or assign ("Seacoast"). Further, Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for the costs and expenses of obtaining any concurrency or land use entitlements (collectively, the "Concurrency Fees") required to permit the installation, construction and use of the Sewer Improvements.

Construction and Maintenance of Improvements. Seller shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for the installation and construction of the Sewer Improvements made by, through or under Seller under the Easement Parcel, and the continued maintenance and repair thereof, in a first class condition, and in accordance with the Approvals and all Applicable Laws. Prior to submitting the final plans for the installation and construction of the Sewer Improvements by Seller on the Easement Parcel (as permitted hereunder) to the applicable governmental authority, Seller shall (pursuant to Paragraph 13 below) submit the preliminary plans to Purchaser for its prior

{O1117744;9}

written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event that Purchaser shall fail to approve or disapprove of the plans (and in the event of disapproval, Purchaser shall provide a reasonably sufficient description of its objections to the plans) in writing within ten (10) days of its receipt thereof, such plans shall be deemed approved. In the event Purchaser timely objects to such plans, Seller and Purchaser shall work together diligently and in good faith to resolve the objections, so that the plans may be approved by Purchaser. Upon submittal to Purchaser of any revised plans, the procedures described above will be repeated. In the event that Purchaser fails to either approve or disapprove of any revised plans (and in the event of disapproval, Purchaser shall provide a reasonably sufficient description of its objections to the plans) in writing within the ten (10) day period set forth above, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved such revised plans. Further, prior to installation and construction of the Sewer Improvements, Seller shall be obligated to obtain any and all governmental and quasi-governmental permits, consents and approvals, including, but not limited to, Seacoast's, as may be required to install or construct (and, in the event that it should become applicable in the future, to take such action as required by Seller pursuant to Paragraph 15 hereof, regarding) the Sewer Improvements (collectively, "Approvals"), and Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Seller in such regard, which such cooperation may include, without limitation, executing any permit applications related to the installation and construction of the Sewer Improvements, with such cooperation by Purchaser to be at Seller's sole cost and expense, including, but not limited to Purchaser's reasonable attorneys' fees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or otherwise, Seller may not commence the installation and construction of the Sewer Improvements until such time as Seller has presented Purchaser with copies of the Approvals, and Purchaser has approved of the same, with said approval not to be unreasonably withheld. At no time during any Work shall ingress and egress to Purchaser Parcel be obstructed. Prior to the commencement of the installation or construction of the Sewer Improvements, Seller shall submit to Purchaser for Purchaser's approval a schedule for the timeframe of the performance of the installation and construction of the Sewer Improvements, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld (the "Schedule"). Seller shall comply with the Schedule (following Purchaser's approval thereof) and shall notify Purchaser in advance of any material changes to the Schedule and shall obtain Purchaser's written approval to any material changes to the Schedule, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall complete the installation and construction of the Sewer Improvements as expeditiously as possible and in no event later than twelve (12) months after the Effective Date. Prior to the commencement of any Work whatsoever on the Easement Parcel (except in the event of Emergency Conditions (as that term is defined below)), Seller shall provide Purchaser with a minimum five (5) days' prior written notice of Seller's entry onto the Easement Parcel. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Emergency Conditions" shall mean any grave or imminent threat or harm to any persons or property including, but not limited to, the Property and the Sewer Improvements. After the installation and completion of the Sewer Improvements, Seller shall provide to Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, an as-built survey of the location of the Sewer Improvements, prepared by a registered land surveyor and certified to Purchaser (and any present

mortgagees). In addition, in the event that Purchaser desires to undertake excavation activities on the Easement Parcel (provided, however, that the same shall not be permitted in anyway to conflict with Seller's rights under this Agreement), Seller shall be required, at its cost and expense, and in no event more than one (1) time during any (12) twelve month period, to locate, identify and physically pothole/spot the location of the Sewer Improvements. In the event that the Sewer Improvements or any part thereof need to be removed and replaced, then the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the initial installation and construction of the Sewer Improvements shall govern the removal and installation and construction of any such replacements.

Term of Easement. Except as provided in Paragraph 15 below, the Easement granted herein shall be perpetual.

Mechanics' Liens. Seller shall keep the Purchaser Parcel at all times free of mechanics' liens and any other liens for labor, services, supplies, equipment or materials purchased or procured, directly or indirectly, by, through or under Seller (collectively, "Liens"). Seller agrees that it will promptly pay and satisfy all Liens of contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, materialmen and others of like character, and shall indemnify Purchaser and its successors, assigns, owners, shareholders, partners, members, employees, officers, representatives and present and future mortgagees against all liabilities, expenses, costs and charges, including, without limitation, bond payments for release of Liens and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in and about the defense of any suit in discharging the Purchaser Parcel from any Liens, claims, judgments or encumbrances, caused or suffered by, through or under Seller. In the event any such Liens, claims, judgments or encumbrances shall be made or filed, Seller shall bond against or discharge the same within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice of the filing of the same. Failure of Seller to comply with its obligations under the preceding sentence shall be deemed a default by Seller hereunder (without the need for Purchaser to serve Seller notice as otherwise required under Paragraph 11 below). In addition, in the event any such Liens, claims, judgments or encumbrances shall be made or filed, Purchaser, at its sole election, may pay and satisfy the same, or bond off the same and, in any such event, the sums so paid by Purchaser, and all actual and other expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), with interest on all of the foregoing at eighteen percent (18%) per annum, from the date of Purchaser's payment, shall be due from Seller to Purchaser within ten (10) days after Purchaser's delivery to Seller of written demand for payment of the same, with accompanying sufficient supporting documentation. SELLER SHALL NOT HAVE ANY AUTHORITY TO CREATE ANY LIENS FOR LABOR OR MATERIAL ON THE PURCHASER PARCEL AND ALL PERSONS CONTRACTING WITH SELLER FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY SERVICES, SUPPLY OF ANY MATERIALS OR PROVISION OF ANY LABOR FOR ANY WORK DONE IN, ON OR AROUND THE PURCHASER PARCEL, AND ALL MATERIALMEN, CONTRACTORS, SUPPLIERS, MECHANICS AND LABORERS ARE HEREBY CHARGED WITH NOTICE THAT THEY MUST LOOK SOLELY TO SELLER TO SECURE PAYMENT OF ANY BILL FOR WORK DONE OR MATERIAL FURNISHED AT THE REQUEST OR INSTRUCTION OF SELLER.

Purchaser agrees not to build or to convey to others permission to build, construct or install any permanent structures within, over, above or on the Easement Parcel. This Agreement shall not be construed as a consent by Purchaser to, or as permitting, any other construction or improvements upon or changes to the Easement Parcel other than the Work, or as allowing any party other than Seller to construct any improvements upon the Purchaser Parcel (and then only on the Easement Parcel), without the prior written consent of Purchaser, with said consent, in each instance, which may be denied or conditioned in Purchaser's sole discretion.

Non-Dedication. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a gift, grant or dedication of any portion of the Purchaser Parcel to the general public or for any public use or purpose whatsoever, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Easement granted herein will be strictly limited to the private use of the Seller and its present and future mortgagees, grantees, successors and assigns, and nothing set forth herein, expressed or implied, shall confer upon any person, other than the parties hereto and their successors and assigns, any rights or remedies under, or by reason of, the Easement granted herein.

15.

Termination of Agreement. If (A) Seller, for any reason whatsoever, should voluntary elect to cease use of the Sewer Improvements or the Easement granted herein (in which case Seller shall provide Purchaser with Notice of that fact pursuant to Paragraph 13 above), (B) Seller shall, for any reason whatsoever, cease use of the Sewer Improvements for a continuous period of time exceeding twenty-four (24) months (in which case Seller shall provide Purchaser with Notice of that fact at the end of said twenty-four (24) month period, pursuant to Paragraph 13 above), or (C) a court of competent jurisdiction (after affording Seller with the right to file and seek leave for all possible appeals) orders or enters a judgment extinguishing Seller's right to use the Easement or the Sewer Improvements (any, independently, or any combination of, (A), (B) and (C) above, shall be referred to herein as a "Triggering Event"), then, regardless of whether Seller provided Notice as required above in this paragraph, the Easement shall be deemed surrendered and abandoned, Purchaser shall permanently terminate its use of Sewer Improvements to provide sanitary sewer service to Seller Parcel, and this Agreement shall automatically terminate and thereafter be null and void; provided, however, that Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall be obligated, at Purchaser's sole option, within sixty (60) days after any such Triggering Event, (x) to obtain all required Approvals to, and in accordance with all Approvals and all Applicable Laws, properly remove and dispose of the Sewer Improvements, and restore the Purchaser Parcel to substantially the same condition as existed prior to the removal of the Sewer Improvements (including, but not limited to, any driveways, sidewalks, walkways, fences, roads, parking lots, trees, bushes, other landscaping and groundcover, and drainage areas, retention areas or drainage ditches situated on the Purchaser Parcel so disturbed by such removal), and thereafter, Seller shall no longer have any rights or privileges whatsoever with regard to Purchaser Parcel; or (y) to obtain all required Approvals to, and in accordance with all Approvals and all Applicable Laws, cover and/or fill the Sewer Improvements with substances or materials of Purchaser's choice, and restore the Purchaser Parcel to substantially the same condition as existed prior to such actions (including, but not limited to, any driveways, sidewalks, walkways, fences, roads, parking lots, trees, bushes, other landscaping and groundcover, and drainage areas, retention areas or drainage ditches situated on the Purchaser Parcel so disturbed by completion of such actions), and thereafter, Seller shall no longer have any rights or privileges whatsoever with regard to Purchaser Parcel. If Purchaser shall elect option (y) above, the cost and expense of Seller complying with it obligations thereunder shall not exceed the cost and expense that would be required if Purchaser elected option (x) above. Expressly in lieu of selecting option (x) or option (y) above, Purchaser may also elect (as option (z)) to require Seller to obtain all required Approvals to, and in accordance with all Approvals and all Applicable Laws, leave the Sewer Improvements

{O1117744;9}

in place. If Seller shall fail to act as it is so obligated under options (x), (y) or (z) above, then Seller, regardless of such failure, shall no longer have any rights or privileges whatsoever with respect to the Purchaser Parcel, and Purchaser may, if it so elects, obtain the Approvals to, and in accordance with all Approvals and all Applicable Laws, fulfill Seller's obligations under the selected option (x), (y) or (z), with Seller thereafter being responsible to reimburse Purchaser for the sums so paid by Purchaser in doing so, and all actual and other expenses (including the costs of any insurance that Purchaser deemed appropriate to obtain in taking such actions), with interest on all of the foregoing at eighteen percent (18%) per annum, from the date of Purchaser's payment (collective, "Restoration Costs"). The Restoration Costs shall be due from Seller to Purchaser within ten (10) days after Purchaser's delivery to Seller of written demand therefor, with accompanying sufficient supporting documentation. Within ten (10) days after the occurrence of a Triggering Event, Seller shall execute and deliver to Purchaser a termination of this Agreement, sufficient to evidence the surrender and abandonment of the Easement and termination of this Agreement (the "Termination"), said Termination to thereafter be recorded by Purchaser in the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida. Should Seller fail to execute and deliver the Termination, Seller hereby appoints Purchaser as Seller's attorney in fact to execute the Termination.
