All of the foregoing expressly excludes all property owned by tenants or other users or occupants of the Property.
2. PURCHASE PRICE. The total consideration to be paid by Purchaser to Seller for the Property is Eighty-Eight Million and No/100ths Dollars ($88,000,000.00) (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:
2.1 Xxxxxxx Money.
2.1.1 Seller, Purchaser and Chicago Title Insurance Company, 000 Xxxx Xx., Xxxxx 0000X, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000-0000, Attention: Xxxxx Xxxxx, 000-000-0000 telephone, 000-000-0000 fax (xxxxx.xxxxx@xxx.xxx) (“Escrowee”) shall concurrently herewith execute Xxxxxxx Money Escrow Instructions, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, and Purchaser shall deliver to Escrowee, within two business days after Purchaser’s receipt of a fully executed copy or original of this Agreement, xxxxxxx money in the sum of Two Million and No/100ths Dollars ($2,000,000.00), which sum, together with any interest earned thereon net of investment costs, is referred to in this Agreement as the “Xxxxxxx Money”. The Xxxxxxx Money shall be invested as specified in the Xxxxxxx Money Escrow Instructions. Any and all interest earned on the Xxxxxxx Money shall be reported to Purchaser’s federal tax identification number. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledge and agree that Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100ths Dollars ($250,000.00) of the total Xxxxxxx Money deposit (sometimes separately referred to herein as the, “Option Fee”) shall be deemed earned by Seller immediately as of the Effective Date, with the Option Fee being owed and paid to Seller (and not returned to Purchaser) in the event that this Agreement is terminated for any reason (other than pursuant to Section 7.1, in which event the Option Fee shall be returned to Purchaser), whether before or after the expiration of the Review Period (hereinafter defined).
2.1.2 If the transaction closes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, at Closing, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be delivered by Escrowee to Seller as part payment of the Purchase Price. If the transaction fails to close due to a default on the part of Purchaser, Seller shall have the remedy options provided for in Section 7.2 below. If the transaction fails to close due to a default on the part of Seller, Purchaser shall have the remedy options provided for in Section 7.1 below. The provisions of this Agreement regarding the disposition of the Xxxxxxx Money and the Option Fee following a termination of this Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement.
2.2 Cash at Closing. At Closing, Purchaser shall pay to Seller, with current, federal funds wire transferred to an account designated by Seller in writing, an amount equal to the Purchase Price, minus the sum of the Xxxxxxx Money which Seller shall receive at Closing from the Escrowee, and plus or minus, as the case may require, the closing prorations and adjustments to be made pursuant to Section 4.4 below.
3. EVIDENCE OF TITLE.
3.1 Title Insurance. Seller shall, within fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, deliver to Purchaser a current commitment for an ALTA Form 2006 Owner’s Title Insurance Policy (the “Title Commitment”), in the amount of the Purchase Price, issued by Chicago Title Insurance Company (national office located at 000 X. Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx) (“Title Insurer”). For purposes hereof, the term “Owner’s Policy” shall mean a basic form of ALTA 2006 Owner’s Title Insurance Policy insuring fee simple title to the Real Property and Improvements issued by the Title Insurer pursuant to the Title Commitment, including all standard and general exceptions and exclusions raised in such form of owner’s policy. At Closing, subject to the provisions of Section 14.21 below, Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, cause the Title Insurer to issue the Owner’s Policy (or “marked-up” title commitment unconditionally committing the Title Insurer to issue such Owner’s Policy) to Purchaser, pursuant to and in accordance with the Title Commitment, insuring fee simple title to the Real Property and the Improvements thereon in Purchaser as of the Closing Date, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions and those other exceptions as Purchaser may approve or be deemed to have approved pursuant to Section 3.3 below. Purchaser may request that Title Insurer issue, but Seller shall have no obligation to pay for or to cause Title Insurer to issue, any available endorsements to the Owner’s Policy. For purposes hereof, the term “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean collectively, (i) the general exceptions (unless Purchaser obtains coverage over the general exceptions), (ii) those exceptions which are more fully described on attached Exhibit E and (iii) exceptions which become Permitted Exceptions pursuant to Section 3.3. Except as permitted under this Agreement, no additional encumbrances may be created on the Property by Seller after the Effective Date without the prior consent of Purchaser, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.
3.2 Survey. Within five (5) days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser one copy of the most recent existing plat of survey (if any) of the Real Property (the “Existing Survey”) in Seller’s possession. Purchaser may obtain, at Seller’s expense, an updated or new as-built survey of the Real Property (the “Updated Survey”) prepared by the surveyor who provided the Existing Survey, in which event, Purchaser shall deliver the Updated Survey to Seller and Title Insurer as soon as practicable after receipt by Purchaser.
3.3 Title Review. Purchaser shall have until the date which is five (5) days prior to expiration of the Review Period (as hereinafter defined) (the “Title Review Period”) to give Seller a detailed notice objecting to any exception or condition contained in the Title Commitment or shown on the Updated Survey, if any, other than those Permitted Exceptions which are listed on Exhibit E. If Purchaser does not give notice of any objections to Seller within the Title Review Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the title as shown in the Title Commitment, the title exceptions, and all matters shown on the Existing Survey or the Updated Survey, if any, and any such exceptions or matters shall become “Permitted
Exceptions”. If Purchaser provides timely objections, Seller shall have until the date which is one (1) business day prior to the expiration of the Review Period (the “Title Cure Period”) in which to elect, by written notice to Purchaser, either (i) to cure or attempt to cure Purchaser’s objections, or (ii) not to cure Purchaser’s objections; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever to cure or attempt to cure any of Purchaser’s objections. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Seller shall be obligated, at Closing, to cause Title Insurer to remove (by waiver or endorsement) any (a) mortgage or deed of trust granted by Seller affecting the Property and (b) mechanic’s liens with respect to work contracted for by Seller (but not mechanic’s liens with respect to work contracted for by tenants or other occupants of the Property) at the Property, provided that Seller has received written notice of any such mechanic’s lien prior to Closing (collectively, the “Required Cure Items”). In the event that Seller fails to provide such written notice of its election to proceed under either clause (i) or (ii) above, Seller shall be deemed to have elected clause (ii) above. At Seller’s cost and expense, Seller may bond around any such matters to Title Insurer’s reasonable satisfaction or cause Title Insurer to endorse over any such objection, and in either event, such objection shall be deemed cured. If Purchaser provides timely objections and all of Purchaser’s objections are not cured (or agreed to be cured by Seller in writing prior to Closing) within the Title Cure Period for any reason, then, on or before the last day of the Review Period Purchaser shall, as its sole and exclusive remedy, waiving all other remedies, either: (x) terminate this Agreement by giving a termination notice to Seller, at which time Escrowee shall return the Xxxxxxx Money (specifically excluding the Option Fee, which shall be paid to Seller) to Purchaser and the parties shall have no further rights, liabilities, or obligations under this Agreement (other than those that expressly survive termination); or (y) waive the uncured objections by not terminating this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.3 and thereby be deemed to have approved the Purchaser’s title as shown in the Title Commitment the title exception documents, the Existing Survey or the Updated Survey, if any, and any such uncured objections shall become “Permitted Exceptions”. If Seller does not timely receive notice of Purchaser’s election to terminate under this Section 3.3, Purchaser will be deemed to have waived the uncured objections and to approve the title as shown in the Title Commitment the title exception documents, the Existing Survey or the Updated Survey, if any, and such uncured objections shall become “Permitted Exceptions”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Title Commitment raises a title exception related to that certain Mechanic’s Lien Foreclosure Case filed by Xxxxxx Window & Wall in the Circuit Court of Xxxx County as Case No. 08CH46079 and Seller is not able to cause the Title Insurer to remove or insure over such exception at Closing, then Purchaser shall have the option of either (i) completing the Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in which event Purchaser waives any and all claims related to said title exception, or (ii) terminating this Agreement and receiving a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money (including the Option Fee), in which event this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have any obligations under this Agreement except those which expressly survive termination.
3.4 Tenant Estoppel Certificate. Seller shall request and use reasonable efforts to secure from the dry cleaning tenant that is occupying a portion of the retail space in the Improvements a tenant estoppel certificate (“Estoppel Certificate”) that is commercially reasonable in form and substance; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall delivery of the Estoppel Certificate be a condition to Closing, or shall Seller’s failure to deliver the Estoppel Certificate constitute a breach or default under this Agreement. It is agreed that Seller’s
delivery of the Estoppel Certificate shall not be deemed to be a material obligation under this Agreement.
4. CLOSING.
4.1 Closing Date. The “Closing” of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement (that is, the payment of the Purchase Price pursuant to a so-called “New York style” closing, the transfer of title to the Property, and the satisfaction of all other terms and conditions of this Agreement) shall occur through escrow on or before 5:00 p.m. (Central Time) on the fifth (5th) business day following the expiration of the Review Period (hereinafter defined), at the Houston office of Title Insurer, or at such other time and place as Seller and Purchaser shall agree in writing (with the parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing that at the election of Seller or Purchaser, this transaction may be closed by mail utilizing written escrow instructions not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement and applying to the specifics of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement). The “Closing Date” shall be the date of Closing.
4.2 Seller’s Closing Deliveries. At Closing, Seller shall execute and deliver to Purchaser the following:

4.4 Closing Prorations and Adjustments. Seller shall prepare the Closing Statement of the prorations and adjustments required by this Agreement and submit it to Purchaser at least two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date. The following items are to be prorated, adjusted or credited (as appropriate) as of the close of business on the Closing Date, it being understood that solely for purposes of prorations and adjustments, Seller shall be deemed to be the owner of the Property on the Closing Date and Purchaser shall be deemed to be the owner of the Property as of the date following the Closing Date:
4.4.1 Real estate and personal property taxes and assessments (referred to herein collectively as the “Taxes”) shall be paid as follows:
1. All Taxes due and owing as of the Closing Date shall be paid by Seller at or prior to the Closing;
2. The 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx (to be issued and due in late autumn of 2010) shall be paid by Seller when due as provided for in this Section 4.4.1.2 At Closing, Seller shall deposit in escrow with the Title Insurer pursuant to escrow instructions mutually agreeable to Seller and Purchaser, the sum of $582,000, which the parties anticipate will be sufficient to pay the 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx. Purchaser shall secure the 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx and deliver copies of the xxxx to the Title Insurer and also to Seller. Within five (5) business days after Seller receives a copy of the 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx from Purchaser, Seller shall deposit with the Title Insurer the amount of any excess of the 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx over the amount originally deposited in the escrow (referred to herein as Seller’s “Additional Tax Payment Obligation”), if any. If Seller has an Additional Tax Payment Obligation and Seller fails to make such payment in a timely manner, Purchaser may deposit the amount of such excess with the Title Insurer, and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser on demand for the amount of such deposit. Upon receipt of the 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx and funds sufficient to pay the 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx, the Title Insurer shall pay the 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx and notify Seller and Purchaser that it has done so by mailing the original paid receipt to Seller with a copy to Purchaser. If the funds originally deposited in escrow exceed the amount of the 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx, the Title Insurer shall refund the overdeposit to Seller promptly after the Title Insurer has made payment of the 2009 second installment real estate tax xxxx. Provided that Seller timely complies with its Additional Tax Payment Obligation, Seller shall have no obligation for any late fee payments or penalties attributable to the late payment of the 2009 second installment real estate tax bills.
3. With respect to the 2010 real estate taxes on the Property (payable in 2011), Purchaser shall receive a credit from Seller at Closing in the amount of Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) and Purchaser shall thereafter be solely and entirely responsible for the payment of the 2010 real estate taxes on the Property. Other than the foregoing $500,000.00 credit from Seller to Purchaser at Closing, Seller shall have no obligation with respect to the payment of the 2010 real estate taxes on the Property, and there shall be no post-closing adjustment of such credit.
4.4.2 the rent payable by tenants under the Leases; provided, however, that rent and all other sums which are due and payable to Seller by any tenant but uncollected as of the Closing (collectively, the “Delinquent Amounts”) shall not be adjusted at Closing. Seller and Purchaser agree that all rent received by Seller or Purchaser after Closing will be applied first to rents that became due and payable after Closing, and second, to those which were due and payable prior to Closing, in reverse order of maturity. Purchaser
shall make a good faith effort after Closing to collect all Delinquent Amounts in the usual course of Purchaser’s operation of the Property, but Purchaser will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect such Delinquent Amounts, and all Delinquent Amounts, if any, collected by Purchaser, shall be remitted to Seller promptly upon receipt by Purchaser; provided, however, any Delinquent Amounts received by Purchaser will first be applied to the then-current portion of such tenant’s rent, then to costs incurred by Purchaser in collecting the delinquent rents, and then (and only then) to Delinquent Amounts owed with respect to the period before Closing. At Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a schedule of all such Delinquent Amounts. In the event any Delinquent Amount is inadvertently omitted from such schedule, Seller shall not be deemed to have waived its rights to such Delinquent Amount;
4.4.3 the amount of unapplied refundable security deposits held by Seller under the Leases;
4.4.4 water, electric, telephone and all other utility and fuel charges, fuel on hand (at cost plus sales tax); provided, however, that any deposits with utility companies shall remain the property of the Seller and shall not be prorated or credited (to the extent possible, utility prorations will be handled by meter readings on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date);
4.4.5 amounts due and payable by Seller under the Service Contracts but excluding any lump sum or up front payments paid to Seller with respect thereto;
4.4.6 assignable license and permit fees;
4.4.7 other similar items of income and expenses of operation; and
4.4.8 with respect to Leases for commercial or retail space, additional rent in the amount currently being collected by Seller under the Leases to cover taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance and other operating costs and expenses (collectively, “Operating Expense Pass-throughs”) incurred by Seller in connection with the ownership, operation, maintenance and management of the Property. If Seller collected estimated prepayments of Operating Expense Pass-throughs in excess of any tenant’s share of such expenses, then if the excess can be determined by the Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit for the excess or, if the excess cannot be determined at Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit based upon an estimate, and the parties shall make an adjusting payment between them when the correct amount can be determined. In either event, Purchaser shall be responsible for crediting or repaying those amounts to the appropriate tenants. If Seller collected estimated prepayments of Operating Expense Pass-throughs
attributable to any period after Closing, Seller shall pay or credit any such amounts to Purchaser at Closing.
Except with respect to Taxes (which shall be paid as specified in Section 4.4.1 above), any proration which must be estimated at Closing shall be reprorated and finally adjusted as soon as practicable after the Closing Date; otherwise, subject to the provisions of Section 4.4.2 above, all prorations shall be final. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4, Seller reserves the right (i) to meet with governmental officials and to contest any reassessment governing or affecting Seller’s obligations under Section 4.4.1 above, and (ii) to contest any assessment of the Property or any portion thereof and to attempt to obtain a refund for any taxes previously paid. Seller shall retain all rights with respect to any refund of taxes applicable to any period prior to the Closing Date. The obligations of Purchaser and Seller under Section 4.4 of this Agreement shall survive the Closing.
4.5 Transaction Costs. Seller shall pay for any base premium due in connection with the Owner’s Policy (the “Base Premium”) which shall be net of any reissue discount which may be available from Title Insurer in connection with the delivery of an existing owner’s policy of title insurance, and one-half (1/2) of Escrowee’s standard escrow fees. All other closing and transaction costs (including, without limitation, title insurance premiums or other title costs in excess of the Base Premium (including, without limitation, premiums for any endorsements to the Owner’s Policy, premiums for any loan policy or endorsements thereto required by Purchaser’s lender, if any), transfer taxes, documentary stamps or similar charges, recording charges, any costs relating to the Updated Survey and one-half (1/2) of Escrowee’s standard escrow fees) shall be paid by Purchaser. Notwithstanding Purchaser’s obligation to pay all state, county, and municipal real estate transfer taxes, Seller shall contribute a total of $200,000.00 toward Purchaser’s payment of state, county, and municipal real estate transfer taxes by providing Purchaser with a credit therefor on the closing statement described in Section 4.2.8 above. Subject to Section 14.19, Seller and Purchaser shall, however, be responsible for the fees of their respective attorneys. This Section 4.5 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
4.6 Possession. Upon Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser possession of the Property, subject to such matters as are permitted by or pursuant to this Agreement.
5. CASUALTY LOSS AND CONDEMNATION. Prior to closing, the risk of loss shall remain with Seller. If, prior to Closing, the Property or any part thereof shall be condemned, or destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, Seller shall promptly so notify Purchaser. If the Property or any part thereof shall be condemned such that damages are in excess of Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100ths Dollars ($750,000.00), (as determined by an MAI certified appraiser selected by Seller) or if the Property or any part thereof shall be destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty the repair of which would cost in excess of Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100ths Dollars ($750,000.00) (as determined by the insurance adjuster designated by Seller’s insurance company), then, at the option of Purchaser, which option shall be exercisable, if at all, by written notice thereof to Seller within ten (10) business days after the date that Purchaser has received both written notice of such fire, earthquake or other casualty or condemnation and the insurance adjuster’s determination of resulting damages,
this Agreement may be terminated. If Purchaser so elects to terminate this Agreement, the Xxxxxxx Money (specifically excluding the Option Fee, which shall be paid to Seller) shall be returned to Purchaser by Escrowee, in which event this Agreement shall, without further action of the parties, become null and void and neither party shall have any rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive termination. In the event that Purchaser does not exercise the option to terminate the Agreement set forth above, or if the condemnation or casualty is below the $750,000 threshold described above, then, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Closing shall take place on the Closing Date and Purchaser shall be entitled to receive: (a) with respect to a condemnation, an assignment of all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the condemnation proceeds to be awarded to Seller as a result of such condemnation, and (b) with respect to a casualty, assignment of Seller’s interest in any then unpaid insurance proceeds claimed with respect to the loss which is the subject of the casualty and a payment from Seller of all insurance proceeds theretofore paid to Seller with respect to same and not used for restoration or repair (provided, however, Purchaser shall have the right to approve, in its reasonable discretion, any such restoration or repair and the amounts expended in connection therewith by Seller except to the extent that any such restoration or repair, in the Seller’s reasonable judgment, is necessary to comply with applicable laws, rules, regulations or ordinances or to avoid imminent danger to persons or property) plus a credit against the Purchase Price equal to the deductibles under Seller’s respective insurance policies. In addition, in the event of the foregoing, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller at Closing a release in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser whereby Purchaser releases Seller from all ongoing liability and/or claims in connection with such condemnation or casualty.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5, in the event any condemnation below the $750,000 threshold described above either (i) prohibits, as a matter of applicable law, the rebuilding or repair of the Improvements substantially as they currently exist or (ii) prevents access to the Property from a publicly dedicated street, then Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice thereof to Seller within ten (10) business days of such determination, and upon the exercise of such option by Purchaser, this Agreement shall become null and void, the Xxxxxxx Money (specifically excluding the Option Fee, which shall be paid to Seller) shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further liability or obligations hereunder, except those that expressly survive termination.
If and to the extent that Seller is required in this Section 5 to assign and transfer to Purchaser any of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to insurance proceeds, Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser’s efforts, in all reasonable respects, to cause Seller’s insurance carriers to pay any unpaid insurance proceeds to Purchaser and for Purchaser’s benefit.
6. BROKERAGE. Seller agrees to pay upon Closing (but not otherwise) a brokerage commission due to CB Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Inc. pursuant to a separate agreement for services rendered in connection with the sale and purchase of the Property. Seller and Purchaser shall each indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any and all claims of all other brokers and finders claiming by, through or under the indemnifying party and in any way related to the sale and purchase of the Property, this Agreement or otherwise, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the indemnified party in connection with such claim. This Section 6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
7. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.
7.1 Purchaser’s Pre-Closing Remedies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if Seller fails to perform in accordance with the terms of this Agreement at or prior to Closing, and such failure continues for five (5) days following notice thereof from Purchaser to Seller (provided, however, that Seller shall not be entitled to any such notice or cure period for any default under Sections 4 or 14.9), and Purchaser is not in material default hereunder, then, as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy hereunder and at Purchaser’s option, either (i) the Xxxxxxx Money (including the Option Fee) shall be returned to Purchaser, in which event this Agreement shall be null and void, and neither party shall have any rights or obligations under this Agreement except those which expressly survive termination and except that Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for all actual, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, engineering fees, consultants’ fees, and environmental consultant fees) paid by Purchaser in connection with its due diligence, inspection and negotiation of the possible acquisition of the Property, in an amount not to exceed $25,000 in the aggregate (provided Purchaser promptly provides written evidence of such expenses to Seller) , or (ii) upon notice to Seller not more than ten (10) days after Purchaser becomes aware of such failure, and provided an action is filed within forty-five (45) days thereafter, Purchaser may seek specific performance of this Agreement, but not damages. Purchaser’s failure to seek specific performance as aforesaid shall constitute its election to proceed under clause (i) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.1 shall limit the indemnification obligation of Seller under Section 6 of this Agreement.
7.2 Seller’s Pre-Closing Remedies. If Purchaser fails to perform in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and such failure continues for five (5) days following notice thereof from Seller to Purchaser (provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be entitled to any such notice or cure period for any default under Sections 4 or 14.9), and Seller is not in material default hereunder, Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Purchaser whereupon the Xxxxxxx Money shall be forfeited to Seller as liquidated damages (which shall be Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy against Purchaser), it being agreed between the parties hereto that the actual damages to Seller in such event are impractical to ascertain and the amount of the Xxxxxxx Money is a reasonable estimate thereof and shall be and constitute valid liquidated damages, at which time this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have any rights or obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.2 shall limit any indemnification obligation of Purchaser under this Agreement.
7.3 Pre-Closing Knowledge. If at any time after the execution of this Agreement, either Purchaser or Seller becomes aware of any fact or information which makes a representation and warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement to become untrue “in any material respect” (defined below), said party shall promptly disclose such fact in writing to the other party hereto. If Seller has not taken a willful act which is unpermitted under this Agreement to cause the representation to become untrue, Seller shall not be in default under this Agreement and the sole remedy of Purchaser shall be to either (i) terminate this Agreement by written notice within five (5) business days of the date on which Purchaser becomes aware of such fact (“Notice Date”), in which event the Xxxxxxx Money (excluding the Option Fee, which
shall be paid to Seller) shall be returned to Purchaser, and this Agreement, without further action of the parties, shall become null and void such that neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except for those rights and obligations which by their terms expressly survive any such termination, or (ii) subject to the provisions of this Agreement, elect to proceed to Closing, in which case Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its rights with respect to any such breach of representation or warranty. In the event that Purchaser fails to deliver such termination notice to Seller on or before the Notice Date, then Purchaser shall conclusively deemed to have elected to proceed under clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement and without limitation to anything in Section 10.6 below, Purchaser is prohibited from making any claims against Seller after the Closing with respect to any breaches of Seller’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement that Purchaser has actual knowledge of prior to the Closing. Notwithstanding clause (i) above in this Section 7.3, in the event the representation and warranty in Section 10.1.5 below (concerning condemnation) is true on the Effective Date and thereafter becomes untrue and Purchaser does not have the right to terminate this Agreement under Section 5 above, then Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate the Agreement under this Section 7.3 (however, Purchaser shall have the rights provided under Section 5 above). For purposes of this Section 7.3, the term “in any material respect” shall mean that any inaccuracy in such matter (together with all other breaches of representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, if any) will have an adverse monetary effect on the Property which exceeds Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000). For purposes of this Section 7.3, Purchaser’s “knowledge”, “actual knowledge”, or words of similar import, shall be deemed to be the collective knowledge of Xxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, and Xxx Xxxxx, each of whom shall be deemed to have actual knowledge of the employees and consultants of Purchaser and/or its affiliates that have conducted any due diligence investigations on behalf of Purchaser and/or its affiliates with respect to the Property, and all matters disclosed by the Disclosures (hereinafter defined), and any other documentation of Seller which was delivered to, or made available for review by, Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, none of Xxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx or Xxx Xxxxx shall have any personal liability or liability whatsoever with respect to any matters set forth in this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
7.4 Post-Closing Remedies. From and after the Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement including, without limitation, the terms of Section 12.1 below, have such rights and remedies as are available at law or in equity, except that neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be entitled to recover from the other consequential or special damages.
8. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT.
8.1 Condition Precedent - Purchaser.
8.1.1 Purchaser shall have until 5:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the twenty-fifth (25th) day after the Effective Date within which to inspect the Property (the “Review Period”). If Purchaser determines that the Property is unsuitable for its purposes and so notifies Seller in writing within the Review Period, the Xxxxxxx Money (specifically excluding the Option Fee, which shall
be paid to Seller) shall be returned to Purchaser, at which time this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except those which expressly survive termination. Purchaser’s failure to terminate this Agreement within the Review Period shall be conclusively deemed a waiver by Purchaser of the condition contained in this Section 8.1.1.
8.1.2 Purchaser’s right of inspection pursuant to this Section 8 shall be subject to the rights of tenants under the Leases and other occupants and users of the Property. Before entering upon the Property, Purchaser shall furnish to Seller a certificate of insurance evidencing: (a) commercial general liability insurance coverage of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) in the aggregate, (b) commercial automobile insurance coverage of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence which shall cover liability arising in connection with any automobile at the Property (including owned, hired and non-owned automobiles), and (iii) workers’ compensation insurance as required by statute in the state where the Property is located and employer’s liability insurance of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per accident. All of the foregoing amounts may be met in combination with an umbrella or excess liability policy. With respect to the coverages required by subsections (a) and (b) immediately preceding, Seller, Xxxxx and Xxxx, Inc., and their agents and affiliates shall be named as additional insureds. Such insurance coverage shall (i) be issued by an insurance company licensed to do business in the state where the Property is located having a rating of at least “AX” by A.M. Best Company, (ii) be primary and any insurance maintained by Seller shall be excess and noncontributory, (iii) include contractual liability coverage with respect to Purchaser’s indemnity obligations set forth in this Agreement (it being understood, however, that the availability of such insurance shall not serve to limit or define the scope of Purchaser’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement in any manner whatsoever), and (iv) not contain any exclusions for work performed at or on residential properties, or for “insured versus insured” claims as respects any potential claim by Seller against Purchaser. The insurance certificate required herein shall also provide that the coverage may not be cancelled, non-renewed or reduced without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Seller. No inspection shall be undertaken on less than twenty-four (24) hours prior written notice to Seller. Seller shall have the right to be present at any or all inspections. Without limiting Purchaser’s right to seek a Zoning 3.1 Endorsement to the Owner’s Policy, neither Purchaser nor its agents or representatives shall contact any tenants or any governmental or quasi-governmental entities concerning the Property or Seller without the prior written consent of Seller and without Seller being entitled to participate in such discussions. No inspection shall involve the taking of samples or other physically invasive procedures without the prior written consent of Seller in its reasonable discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend (with counsel
acceptable to Seller) and hold Seller, Xxxxx and Xxxx, Inc. and each of their respective past, present and future affiliates (collectively, “Seller’s Affiliates”), harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection therewith) arising out of or resulting from Purchaser’s exercise of its rights under Section 8 of this Agreement; provided, however, Purchaser shall not be liable for, and Purchaser shall not indemnify Seller or Seller’s Affiliates with respect to, any pre-existing condition, fact, matter, item or substance discovered, uncovered, located, or identified as a result of the entry or activities of Purchaser which are expressly permitted hereunder, except to the extent that such condition, fact, matter, item or substance is exacerbated by Purchaser or its consultant’s inspection. Purchaser shall restore to its original condition the Property or any portion thereof or any of Personal Property that is damaged or modified by Purchaser’s inspections or testing. The indemnification obligation of Purchaser in this Section 8.1.2 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
8.1.3 At Closing, all management contracts relating to the Property shall be terminated.
9. SECTION 1031 EXCHANGE. Seller may structure the disposition of the Property as a like-kind exchange under Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 at Seller’s sole cost and expense. Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate therein, provided that Purchaser shall incur no material costs, expenses or liabilities in connection with Seller’s exchange, and the Closing shall not be delayed as a result thereof. Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless therefrom and Purchaser shall not be required to take title to or contract for purchase of any other property. If Seller uses a qualified intermediary to effectuate the exchange, any assignment of the rights or obligations of Seller hereunder shall not relieve, release or absolve Seller of its obligations to Purchaser.

To be effective, an assignment to a Permitted Assignee shall (i) only be permitted following the expiration of the Review Period; (ii) be fully executed by the assignor and the Permitted Assignee thereunder and delivered to Seller as soon as practicable to afford Seller sufficient time before the Closing Date to prepare the applicable closing documents reflecting the name and signature block of the Permitted Assignee, and (iii) contain a provision whereby the Permitted Assignee assumes all of the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement whether occurring before, as of or after the effective date of such assignment. Upon both the assignment of this Agreement and the Permitted Assignee’s delivery to Escrowee of the full amount of Closing funds required to be delivered by Purchaser (or the Permitted Assignee) hereunder, the original Purchaser will be released from all liabilities and obligations under this Agreement as and to the extent that the Permitted Assignee has assumed the same. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns.
14.4 No Modification. This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except in a written document signed by Seller and Purchaser.
14.5 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.
14.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois.

Either party hereto may change the
address for receiving notices, requests, demands or other communication by notice sent in accordance with the terms of this Section 14.7.
14.8 Waiver of Trial by Jury. IN ANY LAWSUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING INITIATED BY PURCHASER UNDER OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, PURCHASER WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY. IN ADDITION, PURCHASER WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO SEEK RESCISSION OF THE TRANSACTION PROVIDED FOR IN THE AGREEMENT.
14.9 Confidentiality. Without the prior written consent of Seller, Purchaser shall not issue a press release or other media publicity of any kind whatsoever with respect to Seller or this Agreement or disclose to any third party the existence of this Agreement or any term or condition of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Purchase Price) or the results of any inspections or studies undertaken in connection herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the Closing, each of Seller and Purchaser shall have the right to issue a press release solely announcing the purchase and sale of the Property and the resulting ownership and control of the Property so long as the release does not, except to the extent required by applicable law or as may otherwise be a Permitted Disclosure (as hereafter defined), disclose the economic terms thereof (a “Permitted Release”). Any press release or media publicity other than a Permitted Release issued by either Seller or Purchaser shall be subject to the review and approval of the other party hereto (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except to the extent required by applicable law, in which event the review and approval of the other party hereto shall not be required. Purchaser agrees to keep confidential and not to use, other than in connection with its determination whether to proceed with the purchase of the Property in accordance with Section 8 hereof, any of the documents, material or information regarding the Property or Seller supplied to Purchaser by Seller or by any third party at the request of Seller, including, without limitation any environmental site assessment reports and information concerning any employee of Seller or Seller’s Affiliates furnished to Purchaser, except Purchaser may share such documents, material and information with Purchaser’s consultants (the “Purchaser’s Consultants”) on a “need to know” basis, unless Purchaser is compelled to disclose such documents, material or information by law or by subpoena. Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all losses, damages, claims and liabilities of any kind (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees) arising out of a breach by Purchaser or Purchaser’s Consultants of the provisions of this Section 14.9. In the event that the Closing does not occur in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller all hard copies (and shall permanently delete and destroy all electronic copies) of the documents, materials and information regarding the Property supplied to Purchaser by Seller or at the request of Seller. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 14.9 to the contrary or in any other agreement to which any party hereto is bound, Purchaser and Purchaser’s Consultants may disclose any information or documentation that (i) is readily ascertainable by the general public (other than as a result of a disclosure by Purchaser in violation of this Section 14.9), (ii) was known to Purchaser prior to the Purchaser’s delivery of the letter intent dated May 24, 2010, (iii) is deemed advisable by Purchaser or its counsel to disclose to its officers, directors, members, managers, employees, agents, consultants, members of professional firms serving it or potential lenders, investors, consultants and brokers and others who need to know such information or review such documentation for the purpose of assisting Purchaser in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement so long as such
persons are informed by Purchaser of the confidential nature of such information and are directed in writing by Purchaser to treat such information confidentially, (iv) is required to be disclosed by applicable law, or (v) is deemed advisable by Purchaser or its counsel to be disclosed in connection with financial reporting, securities disclosures or other legal, tax or financial requirements or guidelines imposed by law and applicable to Purchaser or any affiliate thereof, including any disclosures to the Securities and Exchange Commission (each, a “Permitted Disclosure”). The provisions of this Section 14.9 shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.
14.10 Assignment of Interest in Reports and Studies. If for any reason Purchaser does not consummate the Closing, then Purchaser shall, upon Seller’s request and payment by Seller to Purchaser of the actual out-of-pocket costs paid by Purchaser in procuring same, assign and transfer to Seller all of its right, title and interest in and to, and deliver to Seller, any and all third-party studies, reports, surveys and other information, data and/or documents relating to the Property or any part thereof prepared by or at the request of Purchaser, its employees and agents (excluding, however, any underwriting or property valuation analyses prepared by Purchaser).
14.11 Access to Property Files. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser hereby agrees that following Closing, Seller shall have, upon reasonable prior notice to Purchaser, access to all files at the Property that relate to a dispute or a set of facts that could lead to a dispute (a “Dispute”) between Seller and a third party including, without limitation, a tenant of the Property with respect to Seller’s period of ownership thereof; provided, however, all rights, defenses, causes of action and claims relating to a Dispute and arising from matters and events following the Closing Date shall belong to Purchaser. In addition, all files at the Property that relate to tenants who have vacated their units at the Property (the “Former Tenant Lease Files”), together with any and all rights, defenses, causes of action and claims relating thereto, shall remain the property of Seller. Former Tenant Lease Files may be removed from the Property by Seller on or before Closing. The provisions of this Section 14.11 shall survive the Closing.
14.12 No Memorandum of Agreement. This Agreement or any notice or memorandum hereof shall not be recorded in any public record. A violation of this prohibition shall constitute a material breach by Purchaser, entitling Seller to terminate this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 14.12 does not prohibit any Permitted Disclosure and the making of any Permitted Disclosure by Purchaser shall not be a default under this Section 14.12, but only so long as Purchaser does not record or file this Agreement or any memorandum or notice of this Agreement with the office of the Xxxx County Recorder of Deeds or any other land records.
14.13 No Finance Contingency. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement are not in any manner contingent or conditioned upon Purchaser obtaining financing in order to Purchase the Property. It is expressly understood that if Purchaser is unable to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement as a result of Purchaser’s failure to obtain financing, Purchaser shall be in default under this Agreement and Seller shall have the remedy provided in Section 7.2 above. In no event shall Seller be obligated to comply with any requirements of Purchaser’s lender or otherwise incur any cost, expense or liability in connection with Purchaser’s financing of the Property.
14.14 Counterpart Signatures. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
14.15 Designation of Escrowee as Reporting Person. Seller and Purchaser hereby designate Escrowee to act as and perform the duties and obligations of the “reporting person” with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement for purposes of 26 C.F.R. Section 1.6045-4(e)(5) relating to the requirements for information reporting on real estate transaction closed on or after January 1, 1991.
14.16 Weekends and Legal Holidays. Whenever the time for performance of a covenant or condition required to be performed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement falls upon a Saturday, Sunday or Federal or State of Illinois holiday, such time for performance shall be extended to the next business day. Otherwise all references herein to “days” shall mean calendar days.
14.17 Signatures. Handwritten signatures to this Agreement transmitted by telecopy or electronic transmission (for example, through use of a Portable Document Format or “PDF” file) shall be valid and effective to bind the party so signing. Each party agrees to promptly deliver to the other party an executed original of this Agreement with its actual signature, but a failure to do so shall not affect the enforceability of this Agreement, it being expressly agreed that each party to this Agreement shall be bound by its own telecopied or electronically transmitted handwritten signature and shall accept the telecopied or electronically transmitted handwritten signature of the other party to this Agreement.
14.18 Legal Representation. Each party hereto has been represented by legal counsel in connection with the negotiation of the transactions herein contemplated and the drafting and negotiation of this Agreement. Each party hereto and its counsel has had an opportunity to review and suggest revisions to the language of this Agreement. Accordingly, no provision of this Agreement shall be construed for or against or interpreted to the benefit or disadvantage of any party by reason of any party having or being deemed to have structured or drafted such provision.
14.19 Prevailing Party Attorney Fees. If either Seller or Purchaser files suit to enforce the obligations of the other party under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover the reasonable fees and expenses of its attorneys from the non-prevailing party
14.20 3-14 Audit. Seller acknowledges that Purchaser may be required by applicable law to have audited financial statements pertaining to the net operating income (i.e. rental revenue, repairs and maintenance expenses, utilities, payroll, real estate taxes, insurance, management fees, etc.) of the Property (but not with respect to Seller or any of its affiliates) prepared with respect to the period that is up to three (3) years prior to the Closing Date and that Purchaser may cause to be prepared audited financial statements with respect to the Property in compliance with the policies of Purchaser and certain laws, including applicable regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, Seller agrees to provide Purchaser and its representatives with reasonable access to Seller’s books and records relating to the financial operation of the Property only (and not with respect Seller or any of its affiliates)
for a period of one (1) year after the Closing upon not less than ten (10) business days’ advance written notice in order for Purchaser to conduct the required audit, at Purchaser’s sole expense; provided, however, Seller shall have no obligation to create or prepare any new financial statements or reports, and Purchaser’s right to inspect the Seller’s books and records relating to the financial operation of the Property shall be limited to the Seller’s then existing books and records, in whatever form said books and records then exist. Further, Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall not be deemed to have made any representations or warranties with respect to Seller’s books, records and other documents that Purchaser and/or its representatives may review in connection with such audit, and Seller shall have no liability to Purchaser or any other party in connection therewith. Further, Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, loss, costs and damages suffered by Seller in connection with Purchaser’s access to the books and records described in this Section 14.20 and the audited financial statements resulting therefrom. Purchaser shall reimburse Seller, on demand, for any and all out-of-pocket costs reasonably incurred by Seller in cooperating with such audit. The provisions of this Section 14.20 shall survive Closing.
14.21 Title Insurance. Seller agrees to use good faith, diligent efforts to cause the Title Insurer, at Closing, to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) the Owner’s Policy required under this Agreement. If, however, the Title Insurer fails or refuses to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) said Owner’s Policy at Closing, and provided that (i) Seller has utilized good faith, diligent efforts to cause Title Insurer to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) the Owner’s Policy, (ii) Seller has delivered all customary indemnifications and/or affidavits to the Title Insurer to enable the Title Insurer to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) the Owner’s Policy, and (iii) the failure of the Title Insurer to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) the Owner’s Policy is not a result of any default of Seller hereunder, then, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the failure of the Title Insurer to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) said Owner’s Policy shall not be deemed a default by Seller hereunder, and, in lieu thereof, and as its sole recourse, Purchaser may elect to either (1) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money (specifically excluding the Option Fee, which shall be paid to Seller) and any interest thereon net of investment charges shall be forthwith returned to Purchaser, all obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate, and this Agreement shall otherwise have no further force and effect (other than those matters which expressly survive early termination of this Agreement), or (2) proceed to close the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, whereupon Purchaser shall accept such form of title insurance policies, if any, as the Title Insurer is then prepared to issue. Purchaser’s failure to make either of the two elections described in the preceding sentence on or before the Closing Date shall be deemed an election of option (2) above.
