Title Company The Title Company is hereby employed by the parties to act as escrow agent in connection with this Transaction. This Agreement shall be used as instructions to the Title Company, as escrow agent, which may provide its standard conditions of acceptance of escrow; provided, however, that in the event of any inconsistency between such standard conditions of acceptance and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. The Title Company’s receipt of this Agreement and the opening of an escrow pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute conclusive evidence of the Title Company’s agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement pertaining to the Title Company.
Escrow Agent The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein and no duties shall be implied. The Escrow Agent shall have no liability under and no duty to inquire as to the provisions of any agreement other than this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent may rely upon and shall not be liable for acting or refraining from acting upon any written notice, instruction or request furnished to it hereunder and believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or content of any such document. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to solicit any payments which may be due it or the Escrow Fund. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct was the primary cause of any loss to the Issuer or Depositor. The Escrow Agent may execute any of its powers and perform any of its duties hereunder directly or through agents or attorneys (and shall be liable only for the careful selection of any such agent or attorney) and may consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled persons to be selected and retained by it. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the advice or opinion of any such counsel, accountants or other skilled persons. In the event that the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder or shall receive instructions, claims or demands from any party hereto which, in its opinion, conflict with any of the provisions of this Escrow Agreement, it shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action and its sole obligation shall be to keep safely all property held in escrow until it shall be directed otherwise in writing by all of the other parties hereto or by a final order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Anything in this Escrow Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.
Escrow Holder Seller and Buyer covenant and agree that in performing any of its duties under this Agreement, Title Company shall not be liable for any loss, costs or damage which it may incur as a result of serving as Escrow Holder hereunder, except for any loss, costs or damage arising out of its willful default or gross negligence. Accordingly, Title Company shall not incur any liability with respect to (i) any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith upon advice of its counsel given with respect to any questions relating to its duties and responsibilities, or (ii) to any action taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon any document, including any written notice of instruction provided for in this Agreement, not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which Title Company shall in good faith believe to be genuine, to have been signed or presented by a proper person or persons and to conform with the provisions of this Agreement.
Fees of Escrow Agent All fees, if any, of the Escrow Agent for service as escrow agent hereunder shall be paid by the Purchaser.
Title Company Documents All affidavits, gap indemnity agreements and other documents reasonably required by the Title Company. At Buyer’s sole expense, Buyer shall have obtained an irrevocable commitment directly from the Title Company (or in the event the Title Company is not willing to issue said irrevocable commitment, then from such other national title company as may be selected by either Buyer or Seller) for issuance of an Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance to Buyer insuring good and marketable fee simple absolute title to the Real Property constituting part of the Property, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions in the amount of the Purchase Price.
Title Policies The Title Company shall be prepared, -------------- subject only to payment of the applicable premium, endorsement and related fees and delivery of all conveyance documents in recordable form, to issue a title insurance policy to Purchaser, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances, in accordance with Section 3.3. -----------

Title Insurance and Survey (a) Buyer shall notify Sellers in writing (the “Title Objection Notice”) by 5:00 p.m. (Central time) on the date that is four (4) Business Days prior to the date of expiration of the Due Diligence Period (the “Title Review Period”) as to which matters, if any, within the Title Commitments and which survey matters (including matters disclosed in any Survey or any update thereto) are not acceptable to Buyer (individually, a “Disapproved Title Matter”). Any matter within the Title Commitments, the Surveys, and any matter that would be disclosed by a current, accurate survey of any Real Property that Buyer fails to so disapprove in a Title Objection Notice delivered to Sellers prior to the Title Review Period shall be conclusively deemed to have been approved by Buyer. If Buyer timely delivers a Title Objection Notice indicating a Disapproved Title Matter, then Sellers shall have two (2) Business Days after receipt of such Title Objection Notice to elect to notify Buyer in writing (a “Title Response Notice”) that Sellers either (a) will remove such Disapproved Title Matter from title to the Real Property on or before the Closing, or (b) will not cause such Disapproved Title Matter to be removed from title to the Real Property. If Sellers fail to deliver a Title Response Notice as to a particular Disapproved Title Matter within such two (2) Business Days period, then Sellers shall be deemed to have made the election in clause (b) above as to such Disapproved Title Matter. The procurement by any Seller, at its option, of a written commitment from the Title Company to issue the Title Policy or an endorsement thereto reasonably satisfactory to Buyer as of the Closing (at such Seller’s sole cost and expense) and insuring Buyer against any Disapproved Title Matter (or any “Additional Title Matter” as defined below) shall be deemed a removal thereof from title to the Real Property. If Sellers make (or are deemed to have made) the election in clause (b) above as to any Disapproved Title Matter, then Buyer shall have two (2) Business Days from the earlier of (i) the date it receives the Title Response Notice making such election, or (ii) the date that Sellers are deemed to have made such election as to such Disapproved Title Matter (but not later than the expiration of the Due Diligence Period), within which to notify Sellers in writing that Buyer elects to either (x) nevertheless accept the condition of title to the Real Property subject to such Disapproved Title Matter, or (y) terminate this Agreement. If Buyer makes the election set forth in clause (y) above, then this Agreement shall immediately terminate, Buyer shall be entitled to a return of the Exxxxxx Money, and Sellers and Buyer shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for the provisions hereof that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Buyer fails to notify Sellers in writing of its election within said two (2) Business Days period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have made the election set forth in clause (x) above.
Escrow Agent’s Fee The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to compensation for its services as stated in the fee schedule attached hereto as Exhibit D, which compensation shall be paid by the Company. The fee agreed upon for the services rendered hereunder is intended as full compensation for the Escrow Agent’s services as contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that if the conditions for the disbursement of funds under this Agreement are not fulfilled, or the Escrow Agent renders any material service not contemplated in this Agreement, or there is any assignment of interest in the subject matter of this Agreement, or any material modification hereof, or if any material controversy arises hereunder, or the Escrow Agent is made a party to any litigation pertaining to this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, then the Escrow Agent shall be reasonably compensated for such extraordinary services and reimbursed for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, occasioned by any delay, controversy, litigation or event, and the same shall be recoverable from the Company. The Company’s obligations under this Section 8 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and the assignment or termination of this Agreement.
Title Insurance and Surveys At the Closing, Lawyer’s Title Insurance Company (the “Title Company”) shall have delivered to Buyer policies of title insurance, or an irrevocable commitment to issue such policies, in accordance with the following: (a) an owner’s title insurance policy with respect to the Owned Property (exclusive of the IDS Site), insuring that Buyer has good and marketable fee simple title in and to each parcel of Owned Property together with all rights, easements and privileges appurtenant thereto (exclusive of the IDS Site) and (b) a leasehold title insurance policy with respect to the Leased Property, insuring that Buyer has good and marketable leasehold title in and to each parcel of Leased Property together with all rights, easements and privileges appurtenant thereto, in each case free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances (collectively, the “Title Policies”). The Title Policies shall contain such endorsements and affirmative coverages as Buyer shall identify on Schedule 7.7 attached hereto and, with respect to title matters and surveys not provided to Buyer as of the date hereof, such additional endorsements and affirmative coverages as Buyer shall reasonably request in writing. Seller shall provide all such affidavits, indemnities (in respect of title), memoranda, assignments, documents and information, whether from Seller or other Persons, in such form as Seller shall reasonably approve and as the Title Company reasonably shall require in order to (i) issue the Title Policies with the coverage required herein, (ii) omit from the Title Policies standard title objections customarily omitted on the basis of title affidavits and documentation delivered by Seller (including, without limitation, exceptions as to parties in possession and liens for work performed at the property), and (iii) evidence Seller’s authority, and the authority of the Person or Persons executing the conveyance documents on behalf of Seller, to consummate the transactions with respect to the Facilities. Buyer shall bear the cost of the title premiums for such Title Policies and Seller shall bear the cost of obtaining and recording such memoranda of leases, lease assignments and other documents as are required by the Title Company in order to issue the Title Policies with the coverages and endorsements required herein. Buyer, at Seller’s expense shall have received a current survey from Professional Engineering Corporation, in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer, of the Facility located in McAlester, Oklahoma, or such portion thereof, as deemed advisable by Buyer in its sole discretion, certified to Buyer, Buyer’s lender and the Title Company (the “Oklahoma Survey”). Seller shall have delivered to Buyer a survey of the Wichita Site prepared by Professional Engineering Corporation, dated not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing, certified to Buyer, Buyer’s lender, the Title Company and such other parties as Buyer may designate (the “Wichita Survey”; together with the Oklahoma Survey, the “Surveys”). Each Survey shall comply with the minimum detail requirements for land title surveys as adopted by the American Land Title Association and the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping. Neither the Wichita Survey nor any other Survey shall disclose (x) Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances, (y) material shortages in area or conflicts or discrepancies in boundary lines or (z) uninsurable encroachments of improvements, facilities or other structures across or over boundary lines, easement areas or rights-of-way.
