Warranty of Title Seller warrants that at the time of signing this Agreement, Seller neither knows, nor has reason to know, of the existence of any outstanding title or claim of title hostile to the rights of Seller in the goods.
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.
Special Warranty of Title Seller shall warrant and defend the title to the Properties conveyed to Buyer against every person whomsoever lawfully claiming the Properties or any part thereof by, through or under Seller or its Affiliate, but not otherwise.
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.
Quality of Title (i) This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, which security interest is prior to all other Liens and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from the Seller, (ii) the Seller owns and has good and marketable title to the Pool Receivables, Related Assets and the other Collateral free and clear of any Lien (other than any Lien arising solely as the result of any action taken by any Secured Parties (or any assignee thereof) or by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Transaction Documents); (iii) when any Purchaser makes a Purchase or Reinvestment, it shall have acquired and shall at all times thereafter continuously maintain a valid and perfected first priority undivided percentage ownership interest to the extent of the portion of the Asset Interest funded by the related Purchaser Group in the Pool Receivables and Related Assets, free and clear of any Lien (other than any Lien arising as the result of any action taken by any Secured Party (or any assignee thereof) or by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Transaction Documents); (iv) other than the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement, the Seller has not pledged, assigned, sold or granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Collateral; (v) the Seller has not authorized the filing of, and is not aware of any financing statements against the Seller that include a description of collateral covering the Pool Receivables, Related Assets or any other Collateral except such as may be filed (A) in favor of the Originators in accordance with the Contracts, (B) in favor of the Seller in connection with the Sale Agreement or (C) in favor of the Secured Parties or the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement or in connection with any Lien arising solely as the result of any action taken by the Secured Parties (or any assignee thereof) or by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Transaction Documents, and (vi) with respect to each Pool Receivable, the Seller (A) shall have received such Pool Receivable as a contribution to the capital of the Seller by the applicable Originator or (B) shall have purchased such Pool Receivable from the applicable Originator in exchange for payment (made by the Seller to the Originator in accordance with the provisions of the Sale Agreement) of cash, an increase in the principal amount of the Initial Seller Note and/or an increase in the preferred stock of the Seller held by such Originator, in all cases in an amount which constitutes fair consideration and reasonably equivalent value. Each such sale referred to in clause (vi) of the preceding sentence shall not have been made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by any Originator to the Seller and no such sale is or may be voidable or subject to avoidance under applicable law.
Warranty of Quality Contractor warrants that all products furnished under this Agreement shall meet the specifications set forth in this Agreement. Contractor shall replace any goods and/or services that do not meet the specifications of this Agreement at no cost to the District in time to minimize disruption to the District.

Title Warranty Assignor warrants that:
a. Except as specifically set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement described in Article 10. below or under the contracts and agreements listed in Exhibit 1 to this Assignment, and further except as a consequence of the formation of a unit, neither Assignor nor any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Assignor during their respective periods of ownership has (A) executed any deed, conveyance, assignment or other instrument as an assignor, grantor, sublessor or in another capacity or (B) has breached any obligation under any Lease that would (i) result in Assignee's being entitled to receive less than the net revenue interest for any Lease, well or unit set forth in Exhibit 1 of all oil and gas in, under, and that may be produced, saved and marketed from or attributable to such Lease, well or unit, or (ii) obligate Assignee to bear the costs and expenses relating to the maintenance, development and operation of such Lease, well or unit in an amount greater than the working interest for such Lease, well or unit set forth in Exhibit 1, unless the net revenue interest attributable to said working interest is increased by a proportionate or greater amount; and
b. Except as specifically set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement described in Article 10. below or under the contracts and agreements listed in Exhibit 1 to this Assignment, the Assets are free of all liens, security interests and encumbrances; (the limited warranty set forth in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above shall hereinafter be referred to as the Special Limited Warranty ). Assignor shall convey the Assets with no warranty whatsoever other than the Special Limited Warranty, but with full substitution and subrogation to Assignee in and to all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by others heretofore given or made in connection with the Assets or any part thereof.
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. Failure by Seller to deliver such notice shall be deemed Seller’s election not to cure any such Defects. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to attempt to cure such Defects, Purchaser shall be entitled, by giving notice (the “Purchaser Notice”) to Seller within five (5) days after receiving such notice from Seller (but in any event prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period), to 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). 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.
(c) For the purposes of this Agreement, “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean (i) liens for real estate taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (ii) applicable zoning, building and other laws, regulations and ordinances and any violations or any encroachments thereof,
Title to Property and Encumbrances The Company has good and valid title to all properties and assets used in the conduct of its business (except for property held under valid and subsisting leases which are in full force and effect and which are not in default) free of all Liens except Permitted Liens and such ordinary and customary imperfections of title, restrictions and encumbrances as do not in the aggregate constitute a Company Material Adverse Effect.
