Notice of Title Defects (a) If Buyer discovers any Title Defect affecting any Asset, Buyer shall notify Seller as promptly as possible, but no later than the expiration of the Examination Period of such alleged Title Defect. To be effective, such notice must (i) be in writing, (ii) be received by Seller by 5:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on the expiration date of the Examination Period and (iii) describe the Title Defect in reasonable detail, to the extent then reasonably known by Buyer (including the estimated value of such Title Defect as determined by Buyer). Any matters that may otherwise constitute Title Defects, but of which Seller has not been notified by Buyer in accordance with the foregoing, shall be deemed to have been waived by Buyer for all purposes and shall constitute Permitted Encumbrances.
(b) Upon the receipt of such effective notice from Buyer, Seller, at Seller’s option, shall (i) subject to Section 3.05(a), attempt to cure such Title Defect at any time prior to the Closing or (ii) exclude the affected Asset from the sale and reduce the Purchase Price by the Allocated Value of such affected Asset as set forth on Exhibit C.
(c) The value attributable to each Title Defect (the “Title Defect Value”) that is asserted by Buyer in the Title Defect notices shall be determined based upon the criteria set forth below:
(i) If the Title Defect is a lien upon any Asset, the Title Defect Value is the amount reasonably expected to be necessary to be paid to remove the lien from the affected Asset.
(ii) If the Title Defect asserted is that the Net Revenue Interest attributable to any Well or unit or Well location is less than that stated in Exhibit C or the Working Interest attributable to any Well or unit or Well location is greater than that stated in Exhibit C, then the Title Defect Value shall take into account the relative change in the interest from Exhibit C and the appropriate Allocated Value attributed to such Asset.
(iii) If the Title Defect represents an obligation, encumbrance, burden or charge upon the affected Asset (including any increase in Working Interest for which there is not a proportionate increase in Net Revenue Interest) for which the economic detriment to Buyer is unliquidated, the amount of the Title Defect Value shall be determined by taking into account the Allocated Value of the affected Asset, the portion of the Asset affected by the Title Defect, the legal effect of the Title Defect, the potential discounted economic effect of the Title Defect over the life of the affected Asset.
(iv) If a Title Defect is not in effect or does not adversely affect an Asset throughout the entire productive life of such Asset, such fact shall be taken into account in determining the Title Defect Value.
(v) The Title Defect Value shall be determined without duplication of any costs or losses included in another Title Defect Value hereunder.
(vi) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall a Title Defect Value exceed the Allocated Value of the Wxxxx, units or other Assets affected thereby.
(vii) Such other factors as are reasonably necessary to make a proper evaluation.
Title Objections On or before the expiration of the Inspection Period, herein defined, Purchaser, at Purchaser's expense, may obtain a title commitment issued by Escrow Agent, which shall provide a commitment to insure title to the Real Property on the full-coverage, standard, revised ALTA Owner's Policy of title insurance, Form B (the "Title Commitment") in the amount of the Purchase Price subject, however, to the Permitted Exceptions (to which Purchaser does not object), but without exception as to mechanics or similar liens, free and clear of any and all other mortgages, liens, judgments, leases, encumbrances, parties in possession, licenses, covenants, conditions, restrictions, easements, encroachments and any other matters of any nature affecting the title except as permitted in this Agreement. Within ten (10) days of receipt by Purchaser of the Title Commitment and the Survey, Purchaser shall advise Seller in writing of any objections to the Title Commitment (including any of the Permitted Exceptions) and the Survey and, if no objections are so submitted by Purchaser within the applicable time period, it shall be deemed that the Title Commitment and the Survey are satisfactory, and Purchaser has no objections thereto. If Purchaser does advise Seller in writing of any objections, Seller shall have ten (10) days after the receipt of such statement of objections in which to notify Purchaser as to whether it will cure or remove such objections, Seller having no obligation to do so. If Seller notifies Purchaser that it will not cure or remove such objections, or if Seller is deemed to have elected not to cure such objections, then within ten (10) days after the receipt by Purchaser of such notice from Seller, or upon expiration of such ten (10) day period, Purchaser shall elect to either (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser, and no party hereto shall have any further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder or (ii) waive such objections to Seller's title. Failure by Purchaser to elect either alternative within such ten (10) day period shall be deemed an election to waive such objections. If Seller sends no notice to Purchaser within said ten (10) days, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure any such title objections.
Condition of Title (a) At the Settlement Date, title to the Property shall be good and marketable and free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, easements, restrictions, rights and similar conditions, excepting Permitted Exceptions (as defined below) and matters appearing of public record on the Effective Date, subject to subparagraph 4(b) below.
(b) During the Feasibility Period, Purchaser shall have the right to order a title search to be performed with regard to the Property, and to order a commitment for an owner policy title insurance (the “Commitment”) to be issued by the Title Company with regard to the Property, all at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense. Concurrently with its delivery of the Commitment to Purchaser, the Title Company shall deliver copies thereof to Seller. Purchaser shall further have the right to order a survey of the Property (the “Survey”), at its sole cost and expense. Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller and the Title Company a copy of the Survey as soon as it is available. Regardless of Purchaser’s election to order or not order any Commitment or Survey, Purchaser shall, no later than the date that is thirty (30) days after the Effective Date (the “Title Objection Date”), deliver written notice to Seller of any title or survey defect, lien, encumbrance or other matter with respect to the Property that is unacceptable to Purchaser, other than Permitted Exceptions (such matters being referred to herein as “Defects” and each being a “Defect”), together with complete copies of each of any Survey and Commitment, and all documents and instruments referred to therein. Purchaser’s election to not order any Commitment or Survey shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations under this Section 4(b), or any other term or condition set forth herein. If, on or before the Title Objection Date, Purchaser properly gives notice to Seller of one or more Defects as required herein, Seller shall, within ten (10) business days after receiving such notice, notify Purchaser whether Seller will or will not attempt to cure such Defects to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction. Failure by Seller to deliver such notice shall be deemed Seller’s election not to cure any such Defects. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to attempt to cure such Defects, Purchaser shall be entitled, by giving notice (the “Purchaser Notice”) to Seller within five (5) days after receiving such notice from Seller (but in any event prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period), to terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further liability hereunder (except with respect to Purchaser’s repair and indemnification obligations as set forth in Section 14 below). If Purchaser does not timely deliver the Purchaser Notice, such failure shall be deemed a waiver of Purchaser’s right to object to any Defects and Purchaser shall proceed to Settlement and accept title to the Property subject to the uncured Defects (which shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions), the Permitted Exceptions, all matters of public record on the Effective Date, and all matters that are or would be reflected in any Survey, without an abatement of the Purchase Price. If Seller elects in writing as aforesaid to attempt to cure any Defects, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cure such Defects prior to Settlement. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Defects, but at the time of Settlement such Defects have not been cured, Purchaser’s sole option and remedy shall be either to (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further liability hereunder (except with respect to Purchaser’s repair and indemnification obligations as set forth in Section 14 below), or
(ii) proceed to Settlement and accept title to the Property subject to such uncured Defects and all other Permitted Exceptions, without an abatement of the Purchase Price.
(c) For the purposes of this Agreement, “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean (i) liens for real estate taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (ii) applicable zoning, building and other laws, regulations and ordinances and any violations or any encroachments thereof,
Defense of Title Warrant and defend title to and ownership of the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor at its own expense against the claims and demands of all other parties claiming an interest therein, keep the Pledged Collateral free from all Liens, except for Permitted Liens, and not sell, exchange, transfer, assign, lease or otherwise dispose of Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor or any interest therein, except as permitted under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Protection of Title of Purchaser (a) At or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall have filed or caused to be filed a UCC-1 financing statement, naming Seller as seller or debtor, naming Purchaser as purchaser or secured party and describing the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property being sold by it to Purchaser as collateral, with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and in such other locations as Purchaser shall have required. From time to time thereafter, Seller shall execute and file such financing statements and cause to be executed and filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of Purchaser under this Agreement, of the Issuer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and of the Trust Collateral Agent under the Indenture in the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property and in the proceeds thereof. Seller shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to Purchaser and the Trust Collateral Agent file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing. In the event that Seller fails to perform its obligations under this subsection, Purchaser, Issuer or the Trust Collateral Agent may do so, at the expense of the Seller. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Seller hereby authorizes the Purchaser, the Issuer or the Trust Collateral Agent to file a record or records (as defined in the applicable UCC), including, without limitation, financing statements, in all jurisdictions and with all filing offices as each may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the security interest granted to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.9 of this Agreement. Such financing statements may describe the collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as such party may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the collateral granted to the Purchaser herein.
(b) Seller shall not change its name, identity, state of incorporation or corporate structure in any manner that would, could or might make any financing statement or continuation statement filed by Seller (or by Purchaser, Issuer or the Trust Collateral Agent on behalf of Seller) in accordance with paragraph (a) above seriously misleading within the meaning of §9-506 of the applicable UCC, unless they shall have given Purchaser, Issuer and the Trust Collateral Agent at least 60 days’ prior written notice thereof, and shall promptly file appropriate amendments to all previously filed financing statements and continuation statements.
(c) Seller shall give Purchaser, the Issuer and the Trust Collateral Agent at least 60 days prior written notice of any relocation that would result in a change of the location of the debtor within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the applicable UCC. Seller shall at all times maintain (i) each office from which it services Receivables within the United States of America or Canada and (ii) its principal executive office within the United States of America.
(d) Prior to the Closing Date, Seller has maintained accounts and records as to each Receivable accurately and in sufficient detail to permit (i) the reader thereof to know at any time as of or prior to the Closing Date, the status of such Receivable, including payments and recoveries made and payments owing (and the nature of each) and (ii) reconciliation between payments or recoveries on (or with respect to) each Receivable and the Principal Balance as of the Cutoff Date. Seller shall maintain its computer systems so that, from and after the time of sale under this Agreement of the Receivables to Purchaser, and the conveyance of the Receivables by Purchaser to the Issuer, Seller’s master computer records (including archives) that shall refer to a Receivable indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold to Purchaser and has been conveyed by Purchaser to the Issuer. Indication of the Issuer’s ownership of a Receivable shall be deleted from or modified on Seller’s computer systems when, and only when, the Receivable shall become a Purchased Receivable or a Sold Receivable or shall have been paid in full or sold pursuant to the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
(e) If at any xxxx Xxxxxx shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or otherwise transfer any interest in any motor vehicle receivables to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, Seller shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender, or other transferee computer tapes, records, or print-outs (including any restored from archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable (other than a Purchased Receivable or a Sold Receivable), shall indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold to Purchaser, sold by Purchaser to Issuer, and is owned by the Issuer.
Out of Title Work Employees who are temporarily required to perform duties of a higher pay grade or classification shall be compensated at a rate relative to his or her current status and in line with the higher grade classification. Requests for temporary classifications must be submitted to the Human Resources office for approval. Assignments must be for a minimum of ten (10) days with pay retroactive to the first day upon reaching the tenth (10th) day in the temporary assignment.
Passage of Title 9.7.1 The ownership and title to the Goods and any part thereof shall fully pass to ISR free and clear of all security interests, liens, attachment, encumbrances and any other rights or claims of any kind of any third party, upon the date of issuance by ISR of the Final Acceptance Certificate for each of the Goods at ISR Site. The passing of title to ISR and the vesting of ownership rights shall be without prejudice to any right that may accrue to ISR under this Agreement.
9.7.2 ISR shall bear no responsibility for any Works performed or materials, components or equipment used by Supplier or deposited with any Subcontractor, including such materials, equipment or Works being stored or that have been placed at any Site and which are lost, stolen, damaged, destroyed or otherwise fail prior to Acceptance Certificate. Supplier shall be solely responsible to protect completely and preserve entirely the Goods and any related Works, components, material and equipment until the Acceptance.
Acceptance of title The Security Agent shall be entitled to accept without enquiry, and shall not be obliged to investigate, any right and title that any Transaction Obligor may have to any of the Security Assets and shall not be liable for or bound to require any Transaction Obligor to remedy any defect in its right or title.
Defense of Title to Collateral Each Borrower shall at all times defend its title to Collateral and Agent’s Liens therein against all Persons, claims and demands whatsoever, except Permitted Liens.
Title Defects 9.1 Purchaser shall have until April 21, 1999 in which to examine the Commitment and the Surveys. If Purchaser finds title to be defective, Purchaser shall, no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 21, 1999, notify Seller in writing, specifying the title defect(s). If Purchaser fails to give Seller written notice of any title defect(s) before 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 21, 1999, the defects shown in the Commitment or the Surveys shall be deemed to be waived as title objections to closing this transaction.
9.2 If Purchaser has given Seller timely written notice of defect(s) and the defect(s) render the title other than as represented in this Agreement or if any new defects appear from the date of the Commitment through the Closing Date, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause only those defects recorded after October 7, 1997 to be cured by the Closing Date. Seller agrees to remove, by payment, bonding or otherwise, any such lien (other than environmental liens) against the Property capable of removal by the payment of money or bonding. Seller shall not be obligated to (but may, in its sole and absolute discretion) cure any other defect or to buyout or settle any other claim or lien against the Property. At Seller's option, the Closing Date may be extended for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days for purposes of eliminating such title defects. If such additional time is reasonably required by Seller to cure such title defects, Seller's failure to extend the Closing Date shall be commercially unreasonable.
9.3 If Seller does not eliminate such defects as of the Closing Date, as the same may be extended under the preceding sentence, or if any new "title defects" appear between the date of the Commitment through the Closing Date which Seller does not eliminate as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the option to:
9.3.1 Close and accept the title "as is," without reduction in the Purchase Price and without claim against Seller for such title defects (except for any lien that Seller is required to cure pursuant to Section 9.2 that can be removed by the payment of money or bonding, for which credit shall be given Purchaser at the Closing unless Seller pays the same at the Closing) (and in such event, the Closing shall take place on the Closing Date); or
9.3.2 Cancel this Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent, subject to the provisions of Section 11.3, shall return the Deposit, together with all interest earned thereon, to Purchaser, and both parties shall be released from all further obligations under this Agreement, except for those which expressly survive such termination, unless such title defects were caused by Seller's willful act or willful omission, in which event Seller shall remain liable to Purchaser for damages caused by such title defects.
