Title Defects and Cure Clause Samples
The "Title Defects and Cure" clause defines the process for identifying and resolving issues with the legal ownership or status of a property’s title during a transaction. Typically, this clause outlines the buyer’s right to notify the seller of any discovered defects within a specified timeframe, and gives the seller an opportunity to correct or "cure" these defects before closing. Its core function is to ensure that the buyer receives clear and marketable title, while providing a fair mechanism for addressing and remedying any title problems that could otherwise delay or jeopardize the transaction.
Title Defects and Cure. The Title Commitment and the Surveys (in each case, to the extent obtained by Buyer pursuant to Sections 6.3(a) and (b)) are collectively referred to as “Title Evidence.” Buyer shall notify Seller within ten (10) days after its receipt of the last of the Title Evidence of any liens, claims, encroachments, exceptions or defects disclosed in the Title Evidence which do not constitute Permitted Encumbrances (collectively, “Objections”). Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall cure the Objections on or before the Closing or Seller may elect to not cure the Objections and shall give written notice to Buyer within ten (10) days of its receipt of Buyer's Objections of its decision, whereupon Buyer may waive such Objections and close or may terminate this Agreement, which election by Buyer shall be made by written notice to Seller within ten (10) days of Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s written notice. If Seller fails to timely give such notice, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the Objections, whereupon Buyer may waive such Objections and close or may terminate this Agreement, which election by ▇▇▇▇▇ shall be made by written notice to Seller within twenty (20) days following Seller’s receipt of Buyer’s written notice of the Objections. Upon termination of this Agreement under the terms of this Section 6.3(c), no party to this Agreement shall have any further claims under this Agreement against any other party, except for matters that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. Any matters shown by the Title Evidence to which Buyer does not object or which are waived by Buyer as herein provided shall be deemed to be Permitted Encumbrances. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.3(c) to the contrary, at the Closing, Seller shall cause all mortgages, deeds of trust, financing statements and other similar liens encumbering the Seller Entities’ fee interest in the Owned Real Property, and arising by, through or under the Seller Entities or any of their Affiliates, to be released (other than liens for Taxes and assessments not yet due and payable and any mechanic's or materialmen's liens relating to the Assumed Liabilities).
