<br /> on an even exchange for 8750 + sq. ft. of Parcel 8. This w~a~d leave 26,250 ~ sq. ft. of
<br /> the original 35,000 + sq~ ft.-in Parcel 8 to be sold to Southern Space by PRHA for expansion.
<br />
<br /> SubseqBe~l~, PRHA would sell the 26,250 + sq. ft. residue portion of Parcel 8 to Souther
<br />Space for $.30/sq. ft. or approximately $7,875~00 less cost of preparation of a physical sur-
