Title Defects If on the Closing Date the Sellers shall be unable to cause title to the Property to be free and clear of all exceptions to title other than Permitted Encumbrances, then the Sellers shall be entitled, but shall not be obligated, to adjourn the Closing for one or more periods not to exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate for the purpose of causing title to be placed in the condition called for by this Agreement. If on the Closing Date, as the same may be adjourned as above provided, title to the Property is not free and clear of all exceptions to title other than Permitted Encumbrances, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by notice to the Sellers delivered on or prior to the Closing Date, as the same may have been extended, in which event this Agreement shall be terminated and of no further force or effect, and neither party shall have any obligations of any nature to the other hereunder or by reason hereof, except as to those obligations hereunder that are specifically stated to survive such termination, and the Deposit shall be distributed by Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 3.2.2 (and the Sellers shall join with Purchaser in executing a written instruction to Escrow Agent to do so); provided, however, that in the event that title to the Property is not free and clear of all exceptions to title other than Permitted Encumbrances due to a breach of the proviso clause of the next sentence, Purchaser shall have the rights set forth in Section 16.2. Neither the Sellers nor Owner shall be under any obligation to take any steps or to institute or prosecute any action or proceedings, or expend any sums of money, to remove from title to the Property any defect, encumbrance or objection to title; provided, however, that the Sellers shall be responsible for discharging (and at or prior to the Closing shall discharge) any liens, encumbrances or other title defects which do not constitute Permitted Encumbrances, which can be discharged solely by the payment of a sum of money and which arise solely on account of actions or failures to act by Owner or VCR. The Sellers may use any part of the Purchase Price to discharge the same, provided that the Sellers shall deliver to Purchaser at the Closing instruments in recordable form sufficient to discharge such liens and encumbrances of record. Except for the Sellers' failure to discharge such monetary liens or encumbrances as aforesaid, the Sellers shall not be deemed in default of this Agreement, and Purchaser shall not be entitled to damages of any kind, if the Sellers shall fail or be unable to cause title to the Property to be in the condition called for by this Agreement, nor shall Purchaser, in such circumstances, be entitled to specific performance of this Agreement (unless the same is due to a default by the Sellers under this Agreement). In no event shall the Sellers or Owner be obligated to discharge any mechanic's or similar lien created by a Tenant in occupancy at the Closing whose Lease is in full force and effect, but the Sellers shall cause Owner (or VCR, as applicable) to use reasonable efforts to cause such Tenant to do so. For purposes of this Section 14.2, the Sellers shall be deemed to have cured or removed any title exception if the Title Company or any other reputable title insurance company shall be prepared to issue to Owner an owner's policy of title insurance for the Property (at standard rates or with the Sellers paying any additional premium in connection with such exception) dated as of the Closing Date insuring over such exception, or providing affirmative coverage or an endorsement with respect thereto that is reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser.
Title Defect (a) In the event Seller receives notice of any Survey Objection or Title Objection (collectively and individually a “Title Defect”) within the time periods required under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 above, Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to attempt to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any such Title Defect, and shall provide Purchaser with notice within five (5) days of its receipt of any such objection, of its intention to attempt to cure such any such Title Defect. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Title Defect, the Scheduled Closing Date shall be extended for a period of twenty (20) days for the purpose of such removal. In the event that (i) Seller elects not to attempt to cure any such Title Defect, or (ii) Seller is unable to cure any such Title Defect within such twenty (20) days from the Scheduled Closing Date, Seller shall so notify Purchaser and Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.3(a) and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, together with all interest which has accrued thereon, or to waive such Title Defect and proceed to the Closing. Purchaser shall make such election by written notice to Seller within three (3) days after receipt of Seller’s notice. If Seller has elected to cure a Title Defect and thereafter fails to timely cure such Title Defect, and Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, then (i) Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses payable to third parties in connection with this transaction incurred after the date on which Seller informed Purchaser of its election to cure the Title Defect, not to exceed the Reimbursement Cap, and (ii) Purchaser shall promptly return Purchaser’s Information to Seller, after which neither party shall have any further obligation to the other under this Agreement except for the Termination Surviving Obligations. If Purchaser elects to proceed to the Closing, any Title Defects waived by Purchaser shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Exceptions, and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. If, within the three-day period, Purchaser fails to notify Seller of Purchaser’s election to terminate, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the Title Defect and to have elected to proceed to the Closing.
Title Matters Purchaser has received from the Title ------------- Company a preliminary title commitment for a fee policy having an effective date after the date of the Original Agreement, for an ALTA (or such other form reasonably approved by Purchaser) owner's policy of title insurance with respect to the Property, together with complete and legible copies of all instruments and documents referred to as exceptions to title (collectively, the "Title ----- Commitment"). Except as set forth in the Diligence Notice, Purchaser ---------- acknowledges that it does not have any other objections to title exceptions shown on the Title Commitment. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall attempt to remedy the objections set forth in the Diligence Notice with respect to the Property. Seller shall have the right to adjourn the Closing Date pursuant to Section 3.6 for up to ninety (90) days for such purpose. If Seller ----------- shall be unable to remove any such title defects to which Purchaser has objected in accordance with this Section 3.3, Purchaser may elect (i) to terminate this ----------- Agreement, and this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, or (ii) to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding such title defect, without any abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price on account thereof. Purchaser shall make any such election by written notice to Seller given on or prior to the earlier of the Closing Date or the fifth Business Day after Seller's notice of its inability to cure such defect, and time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of such notices by Purchaser. Failure of Purchaser to give such notice shall be deemed an election by Purchaser to proceed in accordance with clause (ii) above, and such exception shall be a Permitted Encumbrance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be obligated to take any and all actions necessary to remove as a title exception (and shall not have the aforesaid option to not cure) any mortgages, deeds of trust, judgments and other liens of a monetary nature, as well as any liens or encumbrances created, permitted or suffered by Seller from and after the date of the Diligence Notice.
Environmental Defects For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Environmental Defect” means, with respect to any given Asset, an individual environmental condition identified with specificity in Buyer’s Environmental Review that constitutes a material violation of Environmental Laws in effect as of the date of this Agreement in the jurisdiction in which the affected Asset is located, excluding, however any environmental conditions deemed not to be Environmental Defects by application of Section 5.04(c).
Environmental Conditions A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II environmental site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of Recognized Environmental Conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable Environmental Laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related lender; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated, abated or contained in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action, completion or closure letter or its equivalent, was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the Environmental Condition affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action or investigation is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the Environmental Condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than “A-” (or the equivalent) by Xxxxx’x, S&P and/or Fitch; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for the Environmental Condition and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition at the related Mortgaged Property.
Title Examination Within thirty (30) days after Purchaser’s exercise of the Option, Purchaser shall have the right to obtain, at Purchaser’s expense, a current survey of the Property (the “Updated Survey”) and an ALTA Title Commitment for the Property from a title company acceptable to Purchaser (the “Title Company”), setting forth the status of title to the Property, and showing all liens, claims, encumbrances, reservations, restrictions and other matters, if any, relating to the Property (the “Title Commitment”), including legible copies of all encumbrances, restrictive covenants and other documents evidencing exceptions to said Title Commitment (the “Exception Documents”). If the Title Commitment and/or Updated Survey reveals any exception(s) to title to which Purchaser objects (a “Title Objection”) and is(are) not either (i) listed as title exceptions in the title insurance policy and/or survey obtained by Seller in connection with the closing of the Mezzanine Loan and/or (ii) permitted by this Agreement (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”), Purchaser may notify Seller in writing that it would like Seller to cure or remove such Title Objections. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as set forth below), to remedy or cure any such Title Objection(s) during the twenty (20) day period following Seller’s receipt thereof (the “Cure Period”). Purchaser shall have the continuing right to have such title examination and Title Commitments updated from time to time, and to obtain updates to the Survey, and to give Seller written notice of any Title Objections appearing of record, or otherwise created, after the effective date of the initial Title Commitment and being revealed by any title examination, Survey or investigation of the Property, and Purchaser shall be entitled to object (in the same manner as set forth hereinabove) to matters shown by the updated Title Commitments or updated Survey or investigations. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as set forth below), to remedy those Title Objections identified by Purchaser to the satisfaction of Purchaser within twenty (20) days after Purchaser’s notice. If any of the Title Objections are not so cured or remedied, or provision satisfactory to Purchaser made therefor, prior to any closing date selected by Purchaser, then Purchaser, at its election, shall have the right and option to either: (a) accept title to the Property subject to said uncured Title Objections that Purchaser elects to accept, and any Title Objection accepted by Purchaser in writing shall become part of the Permitted Encumbrances; or (b) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in which event, immediately upon receipt of said notice, this Agreement shall terminate, be null and void and of no further force or effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, shall be obligated to cure or remove at or before Closing all mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt, judgments liens, mechanics and materialman’s liens, and other monetary liens against the Property, whether or not Purchaser objects thereto, and Purchaser shall credit the cost to cure, satisfy, release and remove such matters against the Purchase Price provided the same is actually paid by Purchaser or Title Company on Seller’s behalf. In addition, Seller shall not allow any easements, liens, leases, licenses, permits or other encumbrances to be placed on or granted with respect to the Property, nor shall Seller convey any rights in the Property, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, except to the extent expressly permitted, or consented to in writing by Purchaser under the Mezzanine Loan Documents. If any such prohibited easements, liens, leases, licenses, permits or other encumbrances arise after the Effective Date, notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, cure, satisfy, release and remove such matters prior to Closing; provided, however, that any easements or encumbrances that are taken by eminent domain shall be governed by the terms of Section 5 immediately below.
Survey or Title Objections If Buyer discovers any title or survey matter which is objectionable to Buyer, Buyer may provide Seller with written notice of its objection to same. Any contrary provisions of Article XV concerning what does or does not constitute delivery notwithstanding, Buyer shall provide and Seller must actually receive, any notice of objections on or before the fifth (5th) day prior to the expiration of the Review Period (the “Title Review Period”). If Seller has not actually received a written notice of objection to any such matter set forth in the Survey or Title Commitment prior to the expiration of the Title Review Period, it shall be conclusively assumed that Buyer has approved same. If Buyer disapproves any condition of title, survey or other matters by written objection to Seller on or before the expiration of the Title Review Period, Seller shall elect either to attempt to cure or not cure any such item and shall notify Buyer of its election by written notice within five (5) days after its receipt of notice from Buyer setting forth title or survey objection. If Seller commits in writing to attempt to cure any such item, then Seller shall be given until the Closing Date to cure any such defect. In the event Seller shall fail to cure a defect which Seller has committed in writing to cure prior to Closing, or if a new title defect arises after the date of Buyer’s Title Commitment or Survey, as applicable, but prior to Closing, then Buyer may elect, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion: (i) to waive such objection and proceed to Closing, or (ii) to terminate this Contract and receive a return of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit. The items shown on the Title Commitment which are not objected to by Buyer as set forth above (other than exceptions and title defects arising after the Title Review Period and other than those standard exceptions which are ordinarily and customarily omitted in the state in which the applicable Hotel is located, so long as Seller provides the appropriate owner’s affidavit, gap indemnity or other documentation reasonably required by the Title Company for such omission) are hereinafter referred to as the “Permitted Exceptions.” In no event shall Permitted Exceptions include liens, or documents evidencing liens, securing any indebtedness (including vehicle or FF&E leases or financing arrangements) any mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens or any claims or potential claims therefor covering the Property or any portion thereof (“Seller Liens”), each of which shall be paid in full by Seller and released at Closing, except to the extent caused by Buyer. If a vehicle or FF&E lease or other financing cannot be released at Closing, Seller shall credit Buyer at Closing with the amount necessary to fully pay off such lease or financing over its term.
Remedies for Title Defects Subject to Seller’s continuing right to dispute the existence of a Title Defect and/or the Title Defect Amount asserted with respect thereto and subject to the rights of the parties pursuant to Section 14.1(f), in the event that any Title Defect timely asserted by Buyer in accordance with Section 11.2(a) is not waived in writing by Buyer or cured on or before Closing, Seller shall, at its sole option, elect to:
Title Warranty Assignor warrants that:
Environmental Condition Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 to the Information Certificate, (a) to each Loan Party’s knowledge, no properties or assets of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries have ever been used by a Loan Party, its Subsidiaries, or by previous owners or operators in the disposal of, or to produce, store, handle, treat, release, or transport, any Hazardous Materials, where such disposal, production, storage, handling, treatment, release or transport was in violation, in any material respect, of any applicable Environmental Law, (b) to each Loan Party’s knowledge, after due inquiry, no Loan Party’s nor any of its Subsidiaries’ properties or assets have ever been designated or identified in any manner pursuant to any environmental protection statute as a Hazardous Materials disposal site, (c) no Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries has received notice that a Lien arising under any Environmental Law has attached to any revenues or to any Real Property owned or operated by a Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, and (d) no Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective facilities or operations is subject to any outstanding written order, consent decree, or settlement agreement with any Person relating to any Environmental Law or Environmental Liability that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.
