NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 1. Recitals. The above recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. 2. Conveyance. GDC hereby agrees to convey the GDC Conveyance Parcels 'to the City, which the City agrees to accept as its treatment under the plan of reorganization of GDC (the "Plan"), in full and complete satisfaction of the proof of claim filed by the City in the Bankruptcy Case (the "Proof of Claim") (the City hereby waiving and releasing any right the City may have to receive any other or additional distribution under the Plan), and, additionally, in consideration for which the City agrees: (i) to irrevocably and unconditionally release GDC and its successors from any and all of the GDC Obligations, including, but not limited to, any obligations associated with, connected to or arising from the Proof of Claim (which shall include as applicable, the release by the City of the bonds posted by GDC with the City in connection with the GDC Obligations (the "Bonds")); and (ii) to assume the maintenance and operational responsibilities and obligations included within the GDC Obligations. 3. Title. At the closing under this Agreement, the City shall take title to the GDC Conveyance Parcels subject to the following (the "Permitted Exceptions"): (a) ad valorem real estate taxes for 1992 and subsequent years; (b) all laws, ordinances and governmental regulations, including, but not limited to, all applicable building, zoning, land use and environmental ordinances and regulations; (c) restrictions, reservations, easements, covenants, agreements, limitations and other matters appearing of record; and (d) matters which would be disclosed by an accurate survey of the GDC Conveyance Parcels. 2 4. Title Examination of GDC Conveyance Parcels.

If the City has given GDC timely written notice of defect(s) and the defect(s) render the title other than as required by this Agreement, GDC shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such defects to be cured by the date of closing. In no event shall GDC be obligated to bring suit or to expend any sums of money to buy-out or settle any such lien, or any other encumbrance or claim against the GDC Conveyance Parcels or to cure any other title defect. At GDC's option, the date of closing may be extended for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days for purposes of eliminating any title defects.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a title defect or objection affects only a portion of the GDC Conveyance Parcels (the "Title Defect Parcel"), and the value of the Title Defect Parcel is mutually agreed by the parties to be ten percent (10%) or less of the overall value of the Conveyance Parcels, then, unless GDC elects and is unable to cure such title defect, and subject to the City's reasonable approval, GDC may select and substitute a different parcel of land owned by GDC in the City of Sebastian of reasonably equivalent value for the Title Defect Parcel, which shall become part of the Conveyance Parcels. 5.

The City has determined that the GDC Conveyance Parcels are satisfactory to the City in all respects and the City is acquiring the GDC Conveyance Parcels in "as is" condition. The City has and will rely solely on the City's own independent investigations and inspections, and the City has not relied and will not rely on any representation of GDC other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement (and provided that the City understands and agrees that none of the representations of GDC shall 7 survive the closing nor are intended to be relied upon by the City after closing). The City further acknowledges and agrees that, except for the specific representations made by GDC in this Agreement, GDC has made no representations, is not willing to make any representations, nor held out any inducements to the City other than those (if any) exclusively set forth in this Agreement; and GDC is not and shall not be liable or bound in any manner by any express or implied warranties, guaranties, statements, representations or information pertaining to the GDC Conveyance Parcels, except as may be specifically set forth in this Agreement.

Per instructions from Richard E. Torpy, Deputy City Attorney, I have made the following hand written modifications:. In paragraph 13 "closing" the closing shall be held on or before March 15, 1992 rather than February 28, 1992. Paragraph 15 "approval" the sentence regarding approval of the bankruptcy court would be changed to February 28, 1992 rather than January 31, 1992. Attorney Torpy advises me that these modifications need not be approved by the City Council since they are not substantive. Thank you for your continued cooperation in this matter.

It is my understanding that this lot is one of the lots that GDC was going to convey to the City, and of which we are still waiting to complete the transaction. Unfortunately, Mr. McClary is out of town this week, therefore, I cannot confirm this information. Please contact me immediately so we can discuss this matter. Obviously, I am quite concerned if this is one of the lots which is suppose to be conveyed to the City by GDC. I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, FRESE, NASH & TORPY, P.A. Richard E.
