• 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.
