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.
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 and Survey Matters 4.1 As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a standard owner's policy of title insurance issued by the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent ("TITLE POLICY"). The Title Policy shall insure marketable title to the Property in the amount of the Purchase Price, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and exceptions whatsoever, save and except only for those easements, restrictions and other matters of record affecting title to the Property which are Permitted Exceptions (as hereinafter defined).
4.2 Purchaser shall have until the end of the Due Diligence Period (as hereinafter defined) in which to review the title commitment and as-built survey to be delivered by Seller pursuant to Section 5.1, and to obtain any modifications, endorsements or other revisions to either the title commitment or the survey required by Purchaser, at Purchaser's cost. If Purchaser is unable to obtain any modification, endorsement or other revision to the title commitment or survey required by Purchaser, or if any items remain on the title commitment or survey which are not acceptable to Purchaser ("UNPERMITTED EXCEPTIONS"), then on or before the end of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall so notify Seller (an "OBJECTION NOTICE"). Seller has a period of ten (10) days after the date of the Objection Notice in which Seller, using good faith efforts, shall attempt to remove such Unpermitted Matters or remedy same in a manner satisfactory to Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion, or have the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent commit to insure against loss or damage that may be occasioned by such exceptions (in endorsements satisfactory to Purchaser). If Seller does not cure any Unpermitted Exceptions to Purchaser's satisfaction within such period, then Purchaser may either (a) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller of such termination not later than five (5) days following the end of the ten (10) day cure period, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money, and all interest earned thereon, shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further obligations or liabilities hereunder or (b) accept such Unpermitted Exceptions. Any item not specified in the Objection Notice or subsequently accepted by Purchaser shall be a "PERMITTED EXCEPTION". Seller shall be obligated to remove prior to Closing all mortgages and other liens or encumbrances of a definite or ascertainable monetary amount, and if Seller fails to do so, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement. At the Closing, and as a further condition of Purchaser's performance of its obligations hereunder, Seller shall cause the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent to deliver to Purchaser the Title Policy or a marked-up and signed commitment to deliver same.
Title and Survey Seller shall, at Seller's sole cost and expense, obtain and deliver to Purchaser for Purchaser's review a commitment for a standard owner's policy of title insurance along with a copy of each instrument listed as an exception thereon other than Seller's debt instruments (the "Title Commitment") on the Real Property issued by the Title Company. Seller has delivered to Purchaser a copy of the Existing Survey which Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for as provided in Section 4 hereof. During the Due Diligence Period, Seller shall obtain from the Title Company at Seller's sole cost and expense a survey endorsement and, if and to the extent available, contiguity, fairway and PUD endorsements. Purchaser may elect to receive an update to the Existing Survey (the "Updated Survey") by notifying Seller of such election in writing prior to November 6, 1997. If Purchaser so elects, Seller shall, at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, obtain and deliver to Purchaser for Purchaser's review the Updated Survey. Purchaser shall have until the later of November 6, 1997 and the date which is fifteen days after receipt of the Title Commitment and Existing Survey (such date being referred to as the "Title Review Date") for examination of Title Commitment and Existing Survey and the making of any objections thereto, said objections to be made in writing and delivered to Seller on or before the end of the Title Review Date. If Purchaser shall fail to make any objections on or before the Title Review Date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted all exceptions to the Title Commitment shown on Schedule B, Section II, except for exceptions 1, 2, 3 and 4, and the form and substance of the Existing Survey and all matters shown thereon; all such exceptions and matters shall be included in the term "Permitted Exceptions" as used herein. In the event Purchaser elects to receive the Updated Survey, then Purchaser shall have until the Title Review Date for examination of the Updated Survey and the making of objections to matters shown thereon, such objections to be made in writing and delivered to Seller on or before the expiration of the Title Review Date. If Purchaser shall fail to make any such objections to the Updated Survey on or before such date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted the form and substance of the Updated Survey and all matters shown thereon; all such exceptions and matters shall be included as Permitted Exceptions. If any objections to (i) the Title Commitment or Existing Survey or exceptions to title are made within the Title Review Period, or (ii) the Updated Survey are made before the date specified above, then Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation except as hereafter provided, to cure (by removal, endorsement or otherwise) such objections on or before the Closing Date in a manner reasonably acceptable to Purchaser. If the objections are not cured by Seller no later than five (5) days before the scheduled Closing Date, then Purchaser may as its only option, elect to either: (i) waive such objection and consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement; or (ii) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further obligations to the other party except for the Surviving Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller shall be obligated to remove (or cause the Title Company to affirmatively insure over in a manner reasonably acceptable to Purchaser) (i) any deeds of trust, mortgages, and related loan documents securing any financing obtained by Seller, including, without limitation, the existing loan with Continental Bank, N.A. (the "Existing Loan"), (ii) any mechanic's or materialmen's liens relating to work done by or on behalf of Seller and (iii) any tax or judgment liens against Seller. Seller agrees to use best efforts to satisfy all of the requirements set forth in Schedule B - Section 1 of the Commitment at or prior to the Closing Date.
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.
Objections Buyer may object in writing to defects, exceptions, or encumbrances to title: disclosed on the survey other than items 6A(1) through (7) above; disclosed in the Commitment other than items 6A(1) through (9) above; or which prohibit the following use or activity: . Buyer must object the earlier of (i) the Closing Date or (ii) days after Xxxxx receives the Commitment, Exception Documents, and the survey. Buyer’s failure to object within the time allowed will constitute a waiver of Buyer’s right to object; except that the requirements in Schedule C of the Commitment are not waived by Buyer. Provided Seller is not obligated to incur any expense, Seller shall cure any timely objections of Buyer or any third party lender within 15 days after Seller receives the objections (Cure Period) and the Closing Date will be extended as necessary. If objections are not cured within the Cure Period, Buyer may, by delivering notice to Seller within 5 days after the end of the Cure Period: (i) terminate this contract and the xxxxxxx money will be refunded to Buyer; or (ii) waive the objections. If Buyer does not terminate within the time required, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived the objections. If the Commitment or Survey is revised or any new Exception Document(s) is delivered, Buyer may object to any new matter revealed in the revised Commitment or Survey or new Exception Document(s) within the same time stated in this paragraph to make objections beginning when the revised Commitment, Survey, or Exception Document(s) is delivered to Buyer.
Response to Objections Each Party retains the right to respond to any objection raised by a Participating Class Member, including the right to file responsive documents in Court no later than five court days prior to the Final Approval Hearing, or as otherwise ordered or accepted by the Court.
Title and Survey Review The condition of the title to the Properties. Prior to the Effective Date, Seller has provided to Buyer an ALTA title report or commitment for title insurance (individually, a “Title Commitment” and collectively, the “Title Commitments”) prepared by First American Title Insurance Company (the “Title Company”) with respect to each Real Property. Buyer may request from the Title Company an updated Title Commitment, together with copies of all documents referred to therein, for any or all of the Properties. Prior to the Effective Date, Seller has provided to Buyer a copy of an existing survey of each Property, and Buyer may, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, obtain an update of each survey (the “Surveys”). It shall be a condition to Closing that the Title Company shall be committed to issue to Buyer an ALTA extended coverage Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance for each Property, in an amount equal to the Allocated Purchase Price and insuring title to each Property is vested in Buyer, subject only to the “Permitted Exceptions” (as hereinafter defined) and including only the “Endorsements” (as hereinafter defined) (individually and collectively, the “Title Policy”). The following matters shall be deemed “Permitted Exceptions”: all matters disclosed by the Title Commitments other than (A) those matters which the Title Company has removed from the Title Commitment by written supplement and (B) those “Mandatory Cure Items” (as hereinafter defined). “Mandatory Cure Items” shall mean (1) those matters which Seller has agreed in writing to cause to be removed at or before Closing in accordance with, and subject to, Paragraph 3(c), (2) any mortgages, deeds of trust or other similar encumbrance evidencing outstanding indebtedness voluntarily created by Seller which can be satisfied by the payment of an ascertainable amount of money, and (3) any mechanic’s, materialman’s or broker’s liens filed against a Property as a result of Seller’s acts or omissions (e.g., failure to pay) which can be satisfied by the payment of an ascertainable amount of money. The “Endorsements” shall include only those endorsements which, prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, the Title Company has agreed in writing to include in the applicable Title Policy or Seller has agreed in writing to cause to be included in such Title Policy;
Title Matters Seller agrees to share equally with Buyer the closing costs and the cost of a title insurance company's commitment for and policy of title insurance. Buyer shall pay for any lender’s/mortgagee’s/instrument holder’s title insurance coverage. The title insurance company will furnish a copy of the commitment for title insurance and copies of all of the exception documents referred to therein (hereafter collectively referred to as the “Title Commitment”) to Seller, Buyer, Buyer’s lender and the listing/selling broker as promptly as possible. The Title Commitment shall show a merchantable title vested in Seller, subject to easements, restrictions and protective covenants of record, right-of-way’s, setbacks, tenant rights, trees, fences, ordinances and regulations, unmatured and future assessments, restrictions and protective covenants of record, provided no forfeiture provisions as contained therein, encroachments and overlaps, zoning laws, ordinances and regulations, those exceptions which are standard to a policy of title insurance in the State of Kansas or as specified herein, and those matters attaching to the title by reason of Buyer taking title to the real property. Buyer shall have a period of five (5) days following receipt of the Title Commitment (the “Objection Period”) in which to examine the Title Commitment and advise Seller in writing of any objections ("Title Objections") the Buyer may have to Seller's title as shown in the Title Commitment. Seller shall then have a period of five (5) days in which to notify Buyer in writing of those Title Objections it elects to cure. In the event Seller elects to cure less than all of the Title Objections, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving Seller written notice thereof within five (5) days of its receipt of Seller's notice, in which case the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Buyer, and thereafter neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder. In the event Buyer does not terminate this Agreement, Seller shall have until Closing ("Cure Period") in which to cure the Title Objections the Seller has elected to cure, which the Buyer Agrees to extend for an additional 45 days in the event Seller has initiated a lawsuit to cure the title objection or objections. Title Objections may also be cured in accordance with applicable current titled standards in the Kansas Title Standards Handbook.
