WARRANTY OF TITLE TO GAS 1. Seller warrants the title to all gas delivered hereunder and the right to sell the same and that such gas shall be free and clear from all liens and adverse claims.
Condition of Title (a) At the Settlement Date, title to the Property shall be good and marketable and free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, easements, restrictions, rights and similar conditions, excepting Permitted Exceptions (as defined below) and matters appearing of public record on the Effective Date, subject to subparagraph 4(b) below.
(b) During the Feasibility Period, Purchaser shall have the right to order a title search to be performed with regard to the Property, and to order a commitment for an owner policy title insurance (the “Commitment”) to be issued by the Title Company with regard to the Property, all at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense. Concurrently with its delivery of the Commitment to Purchaser, the Title Company shall deliver copies thereof to Seller. Purchaser shall further have the right to order a survey of the Property (the “Survey”), at its sole cost and expense. Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller and the Title Company a copy of the Survey as soon as it is available. Regardless of Purchaser’s election to order or not order any Commitment or Survey, Purchaser shall, no later than the date that is thirty (30) days after the Effective Date (the “Title Objection Date”), deliver written notice to Seller of any title or survey defect, lien, encumbrance or other matter with respect to the Property that is unacceptable to Purchaser, other than Permitted Exceptions (such matters being referred to herein as “Defects” and each being a “Defect”), together with complete copies of each of any Survey and Commitment, and all documents and instruments referred to therein. Purchaser’s election to not order any Commitment or Survey shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations under this Section 4(b), or any other term or condition set forth herein. If, on or before the Title Objection Date, Purchaser properly gives notice to Seller of one or more Defects as required herein, Seller shall, within ten (10) business days after receiving such notice, notify Purchaser whether Seller will or will not attempt to cure such Defects to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction.

If Purchaser does not timely deliver the Purchaser Notice, such failure shall be deemed a waiver of Purchaser’s right to object to any Defects and Purchaser shall proceed to Settlement and accept title to the Property subject to the uncured Defects (which shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions), the Permitted Exceptions, all matters of public record on the Effective Date, and all matters that are or would be reflected in any Survey, without an abatement of the Purchase Price. If Seller elects in writing as aforesaid to attempt to cure any Defects, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cure such Defects prior to Settlement. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Defects, but at the time of Settlement such Defects have not been cured, Purchaser’s sole option and remedy shall be either to (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further liability hereunder (except with respect to Purchaser’s repair and indemnification obligations as set forth in Section 14 below), or
(ii) proceed to Settlement and accept title to the Property subject to such uncured Defects and all other Permitted Exceptions, without an abatement of the Purchase Price.
