(a) Real and personal property ad valorem taxes upon the Property shall be prorated as of the Closing Date based on the available discount. If the amount of such taxes for the year in which the Closing occurs cannot reasonably be determined, the apportionment shall be based at Closing upon the amount of such taxes for the immediately preceding tax year. Special assessments levied or pending and applicable to periods prior to Closing shall be the responsibility of Seller, and for periods after the Closing shall be the responsibility of Company. The provisions contained in this Subparagraph shall survive the Closing.
(b) To the extent the same are not payable by tenants as CAM or direct charges pursuant to Tenant Leases, utility charges payable by the Company, including water and sewer charges, except that where practicable, utility readings shall be taken on the day prior to Closing, and Seller will pay the charges for utility services based on such reading.

The first rents collected after Closing from each tenant shall be successively applied to the payment of (i) rents due and payable in the month in which Closing occurs; (ii) rents due and payable in months preceding the month in which Closing occurred, up to and including the month in which payment is made; (iii) rents due and payable in the month in which payment is made; and (iv) rents due and payable in months succeeding the month in which Closing occurs, other than applied above, if any. Purchaser shall promptly remit to Seller its prorated share of any delinquent rents paid to the Company after Closing, and Seller shall have the right to pursue any remedies it may have against tenants to collect such delinquent rents except for the right to terminate any such tenant’s lease.
(e) All other expenses of operating or owning the Property shall be apportioned as of the Closing Date, those paid or accruing through the Closing Date being
18
Seller’s responsibility and those accruing after the Closing Date being the Company’s responsibility.
9.4.2 At Closing, the following credits will be given:
(a) Purchaser shall receive a credit for the aggregate amount of all security deposits collected by Seller under Tenant Leases;
(b) Seller will receive a credit for all other refundable deposits or credits, which are not refunded to Seller from utilities, governmental agencies, or others relating to or arising from the Property existing as of the Closing Date; and
(c) Seller shall receive a credit for all unrestricted cash balances of the Company at Closing which are not the subject of another proration or credit pursuant to this Agreement.
9.4.3 If the actual amount of taxes or utility charges to be prorated pursuant to Subparagraphs 9.4.1 (a) and (b) is not known as of such date because bills for the period in question have not been issued, the proration at the Closing will be based on the most current and accurate billing information available. Should such proration not be based on the actual amount of the ad valorem tax assessments or utility charges for the period in question and should such proration prove to be inaccurate upon receipt of the actual assessments or bills for the Property, then either Seller or Purchaser may demand at any time after the Closing Date a payment from the other party correcting such malapportionment. Purchaser shall promptly provide Seller with a copy of the actual tax or utility bills for the prorated period, if any prorated adjustment is to be sought by Purchaser.
10. CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION.
10.1 Risk of Loss. Until the purchase of the Property has been consummated on the Closing Date, all risk of loss of, or damage to, or destruction of, the Property (whether by fire, flood, tornado or other casualty, or by the exercise of the power of eminent domain, or otherwise) shall belong to and be borne by Seller. Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in the event that it becomes aware or receives any notice of any damage to or destruction of the Property.
10.2 Condemnation. If prior to the Closing Date all of the Property is taken by condemnation or eminent domain, this Agreement will be automatically terminated, the Xxxxxxx Money, together with all interest accrued thereon, will be returned to Purchaser, and thereupon this Agreement will be null and void and of no further force or effect, and neither Purchaser nor Seller will have any further rights, duties, liabilities and obligations to the other by reason thereof. Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in the event Seller becomes aware or receives notice of any pending or threatened condemnation of any portion of the Property. If prior to the Closing Date Seller receives notice that less than all of the Property will be taken by condemnation or eminent domain, if, in Seller’s reasonable judgment, the value of the Property shall be materially and adversely affected, then Seller shall so notify Purchaser and Purchaser may, at its option, terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money, together with all interest accrued thereon, will be returned to Purchaser and thereupon this Agreement will be null and void and of no further force or effect and neither Purchaser nor Seller will have any further rights, duties, liabilities and
19
obligations to the other by reason thereof, except as to such obligations which expressly survive. If this Agreement is not terminated, Purchaser will accept title to the Property subject to the taking, in which event, at the Closing, the proceeds of the award or payment will be retained by the Company and transferred by Seller to Purchaser and any moneys theretofore received by Seller in connection with such taking will be credited to Purchaser.
10.3 Casualty Loss.
10.3.1 If, prior to the Closing Date, there is damage to the Property by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty Loss”) whether or not insured against by Seller or the Company under a property damage insurance policy, Seller will promptly give Purchaser notice of such fact, and if the estimated the cost of repair and restoration in the aggregate equals or exceeds $2,000,000, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement within five (5) days after receiving written notice from Seller of the occurrence of such casualty. If Purchaser so elects to terminate this Agreement, it will give Seller written notice thereof, and the Xxxxxxx Money, together with all accrued interest thereon, will be returned to Purchaser, and upon such return, this Agreement will terminate and be null and void and of no further force or effect, and neither Purchaser nor Seller will have any further rights, duties, liabilities or obligations to the other, except pursuant to those provisions which expressly survive.
10.3.2 If (i) (a) in the event of a Casualty Loss described in Paragraph 10.3.1, Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Paragraph 10.3.1, or (b) prior to the Closing Date there is a Casualty Loss which the Seller reasonably estimates would cost, in the aggregate, less than $2,000,000 to repair and restore, and (ii) the Casualty Loss is fully insured (as reasonably determined by Seller), then this Agreement will not terminate, and Purchaser will proceed to the Closing and will pay the full Purchase Price, and Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Company all insurance proceeds payable as a result of such Casualty Loss plus an amount equal to any deductible under the insurance policy. If all of the conditions of clauses (i) and (ii) above are not met, the Xxxxxxx Money, together with any Escrow Earnings, will be returned to Purchaser and this Agreement shall terminate and be null and void and of no effect and neither Purchaser nor Seller shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except for those which expressly survive.
11. BROKERS. Purchaser represents and warrants that there is no broker, finder or agent who is entitled to any commission or fee in connection with this transaction, and Purchaser agrees to indemnify Seller and the Company against any claims of, and liabilities to, any person or entity claiming through Purchaser, or as a result of any dealing with Purchaser, or any agreement with Purchaser, for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or other remuneration arising from this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller represents and warrants that there is no broker finder or agent who is entitled to any commission or fee in connection with this transaction, and Seller agrees to indemnify Purchaser and the Company against any claims of, and liabilities to, any person or entity claiming through Seller, or as a result of any dealing with Seller, or any agreement with Seller, for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or other remuneration arising from this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
12. DEFAULT AND INDEMNITY.
20
12.1 Seller’s Default.
12.1.1 (a) If the sale and purchase of the Membership Interests contemplated by this Agreement is not consummated on account of a Seller’s default hereunder, at Purchaser’s option:
(i) the Xxxxxxx Money, together with all interest and other earnings thereon shall be refunded to Purchaser; and
(ii) Purchaser shall have the right to seek specific performance of this Agreement. Provided, however in the event that Seller wrongfully opposes, hinders or delays Purchaser’s attempt to obtain specific performance, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for all costs actually incurred by Purchaser in connection with its inspections of the Property, including but not limited to environmental reports, surveys, engineering reports, and appraisals, up to an amount not to exceed $20,000.00.
12.1.2 If the sale and purchase of the Property contemplated by this Agreement is consummated, no claim, demand, suit or cause of action may be brought against Seller for or on account of the breach or falsity of any of the representations or warranties contained in this Agreement unless written notice setting forth generally the nature and basis of such alleged breach or falsity is given at, or prior to, the end of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 6.13.
12.2 Purchaser’s Default. If the sale and purchase of the Membership Interests contemplated by this Agreement is not consummated because of Purchaser’s default, failure or refusal to perform hereunder, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy hereunder, to payment of the Xxxxxxx Money and any Escrow Earnings, as full and complete liquidated damages for such default of Purchaser, the parties hereto acknowledging that it is impossible to estimate more precisely the damages which might be suffered by Seller upon Purchaser’s default. Seller’s receipt of the Xxxxxxx Money is intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages.
12.3 Indemnities.
12.3.1 If and only if the Closing occurs, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines, penalties, settlement amounts, payments of amounts demanded, and Litigation Costs incurred in connection with a Proceeding (collectively “Losses”), arising out of or resulting from any or all of the following: (i) breach of any representation or any warranty hereunder for which a notice is properly given pursuant to Section 12.3.4 hereof prior to the end of the one hundred eighty (180) day survival period; and (ii) any liability for any Taxes with respect to periods on or before the Closing Date; but excluding any liabilities for which Purchaser receives a credit against the Purchase Price or which Purchaser expressly assumes at Closing.
12.3.2 If and only if the Closing occurs, Purchaser and the Company, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any Losses which arise out of, or result from any or all of the following: (i) amounts accruing to periods under the Service Contracts subsequent to the Closing Date; (ii) claims due to, arising out of, or relating to injuries which were sustained after the Closing as a result of the operation, use, condition and/or upkeep
21
of the Property after the Closing; (iii) the actions, conduct and/or omissions of the employees or agents of Purchaser and/or Company after the Closing; and (iv) any liabilities of the Company which are expressly assumed by the Purchaser or for which Purchaser received a credit at Closing, or any liabilities of the Company arising out of or with respect to periods after the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section 12.3.2 shall expressly survive the Closing Date.
12.3.3 Regardless of whether the Closing occurs, Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Seller and the Company harmless from all actual losses, damages, costs and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred, arising out of or based upon Purchaser’s inspections or examinations of the Property prior to Closing.
12.3.4 Promptly after receipt by a party who is indemnified under this Section 12.3 (the “Indemnitee”), of notice of any Proceeding, the Indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made under this Section 12.3, notify the party who indemnified the Indemnitee under this Section 12.3 (the “Indemnitor”) in writing, but the failure to so notify the Indemnitor will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to the Indemnitee unless the failure to notify materially impairs the ability of the Indemnitor to defend such Proceeding. The Indemnitor will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense of any Proceeding as to which it has indemnified an Indemnitee, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ personal counsel in such Proceeding, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Indemnitor of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee.
13. SPECIAL CONDITIONS TO CLOSING. Seller and Purchaser each hereby agree that the following items shall be considered conditions to Seller’s and Purchaser’s respective obligations to close:

In the event that the manager of the Property leases at least 20,000 square feet of space in NTS Center (not including lease renewals), represented by one or more leases, between the Execution Date of this Agreement
23
and the expiration date of the extended NTS Development Company lease, then NTS Development Company shall have the right to early termination of the extended NTS Development Company lease upon six (6) months prior written notice to Purchaser, and reimbursement to Purchaser of a prorated amount of the $50,000 tenant improvement allowance should such termination occur during the first five (5) years of the Extension Term of such lease.

“The term “Inspection Date” shall mean 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on October 3, 2007; provided that Purchaser must notify Seller in writing prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on October 3, 2007 either: (i) that Purchaser desires to extend the Inspection Date to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on October 23, 2007 in which case a portion of the Initial Deposit in the amount of Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000) shall be immediately non-refundable to Purchaser and shall be delivered to Seller by Escrow Agent, in which case 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on October 23, 2007 shall become the “Inspection Date”; or (ii) that Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.3.5 hereof effective as of the October 3, 2007 Inspection Date.

4. Xxxxxxx Money Deposit. Upon full execution of this Sixth Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement, Purchaser shall deposit, by wire transfer, the additional sum of Two Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars ($280,000.00), with the Escrow Agent as an additional deposit of Xxxxxxx Money under the Agreement. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the entire amount of the Xxxxxxx Money, including the Initial Deposit, the Additional Deposit and the additional deposit of $280,000.00 made herewith, shall be non-refundable to Purchaser, unless Seller shall default under the Agreement, but shall be applicable (together with any interest earned on the Xxxxxxx Money) to the Purchase Price at Closing in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. In the event Purchaser delivers written notice to Seller in accordance with Paragraph 2 of this Sixth Amendment that it desires to extend the Closing Date to April 30, 2008, Purchaser shall deposit, by wire transfer, the additional sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) with the Escrow Agent as an additional deposit of Xxxxxxx Money which shall be non-refundable to Purchaser unless Sellers shall default under the Agreement, but shall be applicable (together with any interest earned on the Xxxxxxx Money) to the Purchase Price at Closing in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

Purchaser agrees that such waiver shall forever estop Purchaser from claiming any right to the Xxxxxxx Money based upon any alleged actions or omissions by Seller in connection with the Property or this transaction prior to the date hereof.
5. Approved Leases. Attached to this Sixth Amendment and incorporated herein as Exhibit A hereto is a revised listing of executed, and proposed or pending, leases for space in the Property as of the date hereof, together with the estimated lease revenue to be generated by such leases and the estimated tenant improvement costs, outside brokers’ commissions and NTS brokers’ commissions for each such executed or proposed lease. Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof by this reference shall replace and supersede Exhibit A attached to the Fifth Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement. Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that it has reviewed and approved the terms of each of the executed leases listed on Exhibit A and hereby ratifies such approval. Purchaser also agrees that it is solely responsible for the payment of, or reimbursement to NTS of, any and all tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions (both for outside brokers and for NTS commissions) and other leasing costs due or to become due in connection with any such leases (for which estimates only are provided on the attached Exhibit A and which Exhibit A shall be updated at Closing). Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that it will have the benefit of the executed and proposed leases listed on Exhibit A and that it shall pay and be responsible for the payment, or reimbursement to NTS, of any and all leasing costs paid or to be paid in connection with such leases, and for any other leasing costs
4
associated with any leases entered into between the date of the Agreement and Closing for which Purchaser has given its approval hereunder, or for which Purchaser gives its approval in the future. Prorations of rental income pursuant to the terms of the Agreement shall not be affected by any of the approved leasing costs referred to in this Paragraph 5; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller hereby agrees that in connection with any leases listed on Exhibit A and any other leases entered into between the date of the Agreement and Closing for which Purchaser has given its approval hereunder or for which Purchaser gives its approval in the future, Seller agrees to credit Purchaser at Closing, for each such lease that has a term commencing prior to Closing, with an amount equal to the total estimated cost of all such tenant improvement costs, leasing commissions (both outside and NTS) and other leasing costs, amortized in a straight-line over the term of such lease (not including renewal option periods), and prorated between Seller and Purchaser over the term of such lease so that Purchaser is credited at Closing with an amount equal to such costs for the number of days prior to Closing for which the term of such lease is in effect over the number of days after Closing for which the term of such lease is to extend under the lease. Both parties acknowledge that these amounts may be estimates and that the actual amounts expended may be different from those shown on Exhibit A or that the actual term of the particular lease may change due to circumstances unforeseen at this time or at the time of Closing and that there shall be no further recalculation of the amount of such credits after Closing.
5. Updated Rent Roll. Attached as Exhibit B is an updated rent roll for the Property which shall also be updated as of the Closing Date.

5
9. Section 13.3 is hereby amended to reflect Seller’s agreement that at or prior to Closing, Seller shall deliver updated tenant estoppel certificates for any previously obtained tenant estoppel certificates that were required by Purchaser’s lender and for which Purchaser’s lender shall require an updated estoppel.
10. Section 13.5 regarding NTS Center is hereby deleted in its entirety.
11. Section 13.6 of the Agreement regarding the NTS Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety.
12. A new Section 32 is hereby added to the Agreement as follows:
BBC I and BBC II Parking Easement.

Seller agrees to execute at Closing, a temporary parking easement in favor of the BBC II owner and its tenants for the use of up to 44 parking spaces on the BBC I parking lot. Purchaser agrees that the temporary parking easement shall expire and terminate in the event that Seller, on behalf of itself prior to Closing, or on behalf of Purchaser following Closing, is successful in obtaining a change to the approved development plan for Xxxxxxxxxxxx Business Center I and Xxxxxxxxxxxx Business Center II dated July 23, 1999, which change lowers the number of required parking spaces for the Xxxxxxxxxxxx Business Center II property by at least 44 spaces. |
13. There is hereby added to the Agreement a new Section 33 as follows:
“NTS Center. Seller and Purchaser, at the insistence of Purchaser, have removed the NTS Center property from the Property being transferred through the transfer of the PB Office Properties, LLC Interests to Purchaser under the Agreement and Seller has reduced the Purchase Price by the sum of $10,075,000.00 (less the agreed upon credit for the tenant improvement allowance for NTS Center in the amount of $575,000.00 (see below), for a net decrease in Purchase Price equal to $9,500,000.00). Seller hereby agrees to grant to Purchaser the option to purchase NTS Center for a purchase price equal to $10,075,000.00 (less the credit for the tenant improvement allowance for NTS Center in the amount of $575,000.00 (see below), for a sum equal to $9,500,000.00) (the “NTS Center Option”) on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in a Purchase Option Agreement to be executed and delivered by Purchaser at the Closing to occur under this Agreement, which Purchase Option Agreement shall contain substantially the same |
6
terms and conditions outlined in this Paragraph 13, and shall be otherwise in form and substance acceptable to Seller and its counsel. As consideration for the granting of the NTS Center Option, Purchaser shall deposit with Seller at the Closing to occur under this Agreement, the sum of One Thousand Dollars ($1000.00) (the “Option Deposit”) as consideration for the granting of the NTS Center Option by Seller, which Option Deposit shall be held by Seller and, in the event Purchaser exercises the NTS Center Option and closes on the purchase of NTS Center on the terms contained herein and in the Option Purchase Agreement, the Option Deposit shall be applied to the purchase price of NTS Center at the closing, or if Purchaser fails to exercise the NTS Center Option for any reason whatsoever, or fails to close on NTS Center after having exercised the NTS Center Option, Seller shall be entitled to keep the Option Deposit. In the event Purchaser decides to exercise the NTS Center Option, Purchaser must do so by delivering to Seller written notice to that effect within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date under this Agreement (the “Option Period”). If Purchaser fails to give such notice or if such notice states that Purchaser does not desire to exercise the NTS Center Option, then Seller shall be entitled to keep the Option Deposit and the parties shall have no further obligations under the Option Purchase Agreement except for those which expressly survive termination thereof. The NTS Center Option shall be a one-time option. If Purchaser delivers to Seller the written notice required to exercise the NTS Center Option as provided above, the Option Deposit shall become non-refundable to Purchaser and Purchaser shall also simultaneously with delivery of such notice, deliver, by wire transfer to Seller, an additional deposit which shall become part of the Option Deposit in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) and the entire Option Deposit shall be non-refundable to Purchaser, unless there shall be a default by Seller under the Option Purchase Agreement, but shall be applicable to the Purchase Price at the closing on the NTS Center Option. In the event Purchaser exercises the NTS Center Option as provided for herein, Purchaser shall close on NTS Center within thirty (30) days after delivery to Seller of the written notice required above exercising the NTS Center Option. All rents on NTS Center will be prorated at the time of the closing on NTS Center. At closing on NTS Center, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for all tenant improvement costs, commissions and other leasing costs for the First American and Devry leases in NTS Center which are paid or incurred by Seller prior to the closing on NTS Center, provided Seller agrees to credit Purchaser for a portion of such costs with such credit being calculated in the same manner as set forth in Paragraph 5 of this Sixth Amendment |
7
for the leases listed on Exhibit A. Seller shall credit to Purchaser at closing on NTS Center pursuant to the NTS Center Option, a sum equal to $575,000.00 to be used to pay tenant improvement costs, concessions, free rent leasing costs and commissions in connection with vacant space as of the date of closing at NTS Center. Any leases entered into for NTS Center between February 1, 2008 and the date of the closing on NTS Center by Purchaser pursuant to the NTS Center Option shall be subject to prorations of lease revenues, taxes, expenses, tenant improvements, commissions, leasing costs and other expenses as of the date of closing on NTS Center as provided for in this Agreement, including application of the credit to Purchaser of a portion of the tenant improvement costs, leasing commissions and other leasing costs calculated in the same manner as set forth in Paragraph 5 hereof for the leases listed on Exhibit A. Purchaser shall be responsible for all tenant improvement costs, commissions and leasing costs for NTS Center from and after the date of closing on NTS Center. The lease that currently exists between NTS Development Company, a Kentucky corporation and affiliate of Seller, (“NTS Tenant”), and Seller, for approximately 20,368 square feet in NTS Center (which Lease is dated October 31, 1997, as amended) (collectively, the “NTS Lease”) shall be amended by a Seventh Amendment to NTS Lease to be executed by the NTS Tenant and Purchaser at closing under the NTS Center Option to: (i) extend the term of the NTS Lease to March 31, 2017; (ii) provide NTS Tenant an early termination option to terminate the NTS Lease at any time on or after March 31, 2013, by delivering of written notice of termination at least 180 days prior to March 31, 2013; and (iii) provide the NTS Tenant with a $50,000.00 tenant improvement allowance to be paid by Purchaser to the NTS Tenant on the date of closing on the NTS Center Option and the execution of the Seventh Amendment to NTS Lease (which tenant improvement allowance shall not be subject to the proration provisions contained in Paragraph 5 hereof that are applicable to the other tenant improvement allowances and leasing costs in connection with NTS Center). In return for the early termination option, Seller agrees that Purchaser shall not be required to pay a leasing commission to Seller or its affiliates for the extension of the NTS Lease contained in the Sixth Amendment to NTS Lease or in the Seventh Amendment to NTS Lease to be delivered at the closing of the NTS Center Option. Purchaser acknowledges that Seller has agreed to remove NTS Center from the Property as defined under the Agreement and to grant the NTS Center Option only because of Purchaser’s request and insistence that it do so, and that one of the tenants in the Plainview Point I and II property, ITT, is in the process of considering a move to NTS Center from the Plainview Point I and II property, and that |
8
Seller has previously negotiated a letter of intent with ITT for space in NTS Center, which letter of intent has not been executed, and Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event ITT executes a letter of intent or lease for space in NTS Center, even if such letter of intent or lease is on terms different than those contained in the previously negotiated letter of intent (of which Purchaser has a copy) that Purchaser will not claim or use such fact to claim a default by Seller or any of its affiliates under this Agreement or under the new Management Agreements to be entered into as provided for in Section 13.1 hereof; provided, Seller agrees to provide Purchaser with a copy of such letter of intent or lease prior to execution thereof so that, in the event Purchaser exercises the NTS Center Option and closes on NTS Center, such ITT lease would be considered an approved lease. It is the intention of the parties that Purchaser waive any claim of breach of duties or self-dealing by Seller in connection with a proposed ITT lease in NTS Center should Purchaser not exercise the NTS Center Option hereunder. |
14. There is hereby added a new Section 34 to the Agreement as follows:
Loan to Purchaser. Seller hereby agrees that in connection with the Closing on the purchase of the PB Office Properties, LLC Interests by Purchaser that Seller will lend to Purchaser the sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for a term of three (3) years at a fixed rate of nine percent (9%) per annum to be paid interest only, on a monthly basis, with a final interest and principal payment due on or before February 28, 2011. At Closing, Purchaser shall pay a one percent (1%) loan fee on the face principal amount of the loan, and shall also pay a one percent (1%) loan fee on the outstanding balance of the loan on each twelve (12) month anniversary thereof until the loan is paid in full. Such loan fee shall be paid in advance on an annual basis on the Closing Date and each anniversary date thereafter without proration. |
At Closing, Purchaser shall cause the Company to execute a promissory note containing the terms outlined above in form and substance acceptable to Seller and its counsel (the “Note”). As security and collateral for the loan, Purchaser shall cause the Company, immediately subsequent to Closing, to grant to Seller a second mortgage on Plainview Point I and II and the adjacent parking lot and Plainview Point III, which second mortgage shall be in form and substance acceptable to Seller and its counsel. The loan shall also be 100% guaranteed by Xx. Xxxx X. Xxxxx, President of B F Capital, Inc., Manager of Purchaser pursuant to a Guaranty Agreement to be executed at Closing by Xxxx X. Xxxxx. |
