         WHEREAS, Seller and Purchaser hereby desire to amend the Agreement as
 more particularly set forth below;

         NOW THEREFORE,  for and in  consideration  of Ten Dollars  ($10.00) and
other good and valuable consideration,  the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby  acknowledged  by the  parties  hereto,  Seller  and  Purchaser  agree as

    defined  in the  Agreement,  unless  otherwise  defined  in this  Third
    Amendment.

2.  The Due  Diligence  Period is hereby  extended  and will expire at 6:00

         Assumption  of Lease and Second  Amendment  to Lease has not been fully
         executed by Fred Meyer and Associated Grocers,  the form and content of
         which document must be acceptable to Purchaser, prior to the expiration
         of the Due Diligence Period.

4.       With  respect  to  the  termination  rights  in  Paragraph  3.2  of the
         Agreement, Purchaser has objected, and continues to object, to numerous
         title exceptions  which relate to the Real Property.  In the event each
         of these title  exceptions is not resolved to Purchaser's  satisfaction
         prior to the  expiration  of the Due  Diligence  Period  and  Purchaser
         elects to terminate the Agreement,  the Earnest Money  (including,  but

         Purchaser.

5.       Except as amended herein,  the Agreement shall remain in full force and
         effect.  In the event of any conflicts or  inconsistencies  between the
         provisions of this Third Amendment and the provisions of the Agreement,
         the provisions of this Third Amendment shall control.

6.       This Third  Amendment  may be executed  in any number of  counterparts,
         each of  which  shall  be  deemed  to be an  original,  and all of such
         counterparts shall constitute one agreement. To facilitate execution of
         this Third  Amendment,  the parties may execute and exchange  facsimile
         counterparts of the signature pages, and facsimile  counterparts  shall
         serve as originals.

         IN  WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the  parties  hereto  have  executed  this Third
Amendment as of the date first above written.
