							                                            Letter of Intent

This letter sets forth some of the basic terms under which Seller would be interested in entering into a Real
Estate Purchase Agreement. It serves as a letter of intent (“Letter”) from
through his agent (if any)                                         and dated                        in which
Purchaser has set forth its interest in acquiring the subject Property. This letter of intent is much more
comprehensive than is generally the case. We have found that addressing business issues in a
comprehensive manner at the outset expedites negotiation and finalization, and this letter is intended as the
first step in this process. NEVERTHELESS, PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THIS LETTER IS NOT
CONTRACTUALLY BINDING ON THE PARTIES AND IS ONLY AN EXPRESSION OF THE
BASIC TERMS AND CONDITIONS TO BE INCORPORATED IN A FORMAL WRITTEN
AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES SHALL NOT BE CONTRACTUALLY BOUND UNLESS AND
UNTIL THEY EXECUTE A FORMAL PURCHASE AGREEMENT, WHICH MUST BE IN FORM
AND CONTENT SATISFACTORY TO EACH PARTY AND ITS COUNSEL IN THEIR SOLE
DISCRETION.
