Title Defects If: (i) the Title Commitment reflects any exceptions to title which are not acceptable to Buyer, in Buyer’s sole discretion; (ii) the Survey discloses any state of fact not acceptable to Buyer, in Buyer’s sole discretion; or (iii) at any time prior to the Closing, title to the Property is encumbered by any exception to title not acceptable to Buyer, in Buyer’s sole discretion (with any such exception or unacceptable state of fact being referred to herein as a “Title Defect”); then Buyer may, on or before the Satisfaction Date (or, in the case of a Title Defect not disclosed by the Title Commitment prior to the Satisfaction Date, within fifteen (15) days after Buyer receives notice of such Title Defect), provide Seller with written notice of such Title Defect. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as specifically set forth below), during the thirty (30) day period after receipt of such notice, but not later than the Closing, to remove such Title Defect or obtain affirmative title insurance coverage acceptable to Buyer, insuring and defending Buyer against any loss, cost, or expense arising out of or related to such Title Defect (“Affirmative Coverage”). If Seller elects to do so, then on or before the Closing Date (as defined below), Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable evidence of such removal or provide reasonable evidence that such Title Defect will be removed or that such Affirmative Coverage will be obtained. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated to expend whatever sums are required to cure or obtain Affirmative Coverage for the following Title Defects prior to, or at, the Closing:
Correction of Defects 35.1 The Engineer shall give notice to the Contractor of any Defects before the end of the Defects Liability Period, which begins at Completion and is defined in the Contract Data. The Defects Liability Period shall be extended for as long as Defects remain to be corrected.
Latent Defects Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no acceptance, or deemed acceptance, by City pursuant to this Section shall be applicable with respect to any Latent Defects. An acceptance, or deemed acceptance, by City pursuant to this Section shall not mean that City has accepted, or the other party has been relieved of, responsibility for: (i) compliance with the Laws; (ii) the proper application of construction means or methods; or (iii) correcting any portion of the Project if it later is determined that any portion of the Project is inconsistent with the Final Documents and Drawings.
Notice of Defects If, based on Consulting Engineer/Architect's involvement during the construction phase, Consulting Engineer/Architect observes or otherwise becomes aware of any defect in the work, he shall give prompt written notice to City of such defects and their approximate location on the Project. However, Consulting Engineer/Architect shall not have control over or charge of and shall not be responsible for construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, or for safety precautions, inspections and programs in connection with the work, since these are solely the contractor's responsibility under the contract for construction. Consulting Engineer/Architect shall not be responsible for the contractor's schedules or failure to carry out the work in accordance with the Contract Documents. Consulting Engineer/Architect shall not have control over or charge of acts or omissions of the contractor, contractor's subcontractors, or their agents or employees.
Title Objections Seller shall request Escrow Agent to cause to be delivered to Buyer a preliminary title report (the "Preliminary Report") from a title company affiliated with the Escrow Agent (the "Title Company"), showing the status of Seller’s title to the Property, together with complete and legible copies of all documents shown therein as exceptions to title ("Exceptions"). Buyer shall have until the date that is five (5) days after the Title Company delivers the Preliminary Report and Exceptions to Buyer within which to give notice in writing to Seller of any objection to such title or to any liens or encumbrances affecting the Property. Within five (5) days after receipt of such notice from Buyer, Seller shall give Buyer written notice of whether it is willing and able to remove the objected-to Exceptions. Without the need for objection by Buyer, Seller shall, with respect to liens and encumbrances that can be satisfied and released by the payment of money, eliminate such exceptions to title on or before Closing. Within five (5) days after receipt of such notice from Seller (the "Title Contingency Date"), Buyer shall elect whether to: (i) purchase the Property subject to those objected-to Exceptions which Seller is not willing or able to remove; or (ii) terminate this Agreement. If Buyer fails to give Seller notice of Buyer’s election, then such inaction shall be deemed to be Buyer’s election to terminate this Agreement. On or before the Closing Date (defined below), Seller shall remove all Exceptions to which Buyer objects and which Seller agrees, or is deemed to have agreed, Seller is willing and able to remove. All remaining Exceptions set forth in the Preliminary Report and those Exceptions caused by or agreed to by Buyer shall be deemed "Permitted Exceptions."
