ARTICLE V
TITLE AND SURVEY
Section 5.1 Within three (3) Business Days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser the most recent existing “as built” survey (“Existing Survey”) of the Real Property in Seller's possession or control. Purchaser shall have the right to cause an update to the Existing Survey (such update, the “Survey”), dated subsequent to the Effective Date, by a licensed surveyor. For purposes of the property description to be included in the Deed, the legal description of the Real Property contained in the instrument by which Seller acquired its interest in the Real Property (the “Vesting Deed Legal”) shall be used for all instruments hereunder; provided, however, if the legal description of the Real Property contained in the Survey (the “Survey Legal”) differs from the Vesting Deed Legal, Seller shall, at Purchaser’s request, further convey to Purchaser the Real Property as described by the Survey Legal via quitclaim deed. The cost of the Survey shall be borne by Purchaser.
Section 5.2 Purchaser shall cause the Chattanooga office of Chicago Title Insurance Company (the “Title Company”), at Purchaser’s expense, to deliver to Purchaser within ten (10) days from the Effective Date, a current owner’s title policy commitment in the amount of the Purchase Price (hereinafter called the “Title Commitment”) for the issuance of an owner’s policy of title insurance on the Real Property (the “Title Policy”) to Purchaser from Title Company, together with best available copies of all documents (the “Underlying Documents”) constituting exceptions to Seller's title as reflected in the Title Commitment.
5 |
Section 5.3 Purchaser shall deliver to Seller in writing such objections as Purchaser may have to anything contained or set forth in the Title Commitment, the Existing Survey and the Survey (“Purchaser's Objection Notice”) within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the last of the Title Commitment, the Existing Survey and the Underlying Documents, but in no event later than the fifth (5th) day following the end of the Inspection Period (Purchaser’s Objection Period”). It is agreed and understood that the Purchaser’s Objection Period may extend beyond the Inspection Period. Any items disclosed in the Existing Survey, Survey or Title Commitment to which Purchaser does not timely object during Purchaser’s Objection Period shall be deemed acceptable to Purchaser and shall constitute Permitted Exceptions; provided, however if at any time after the expiration of the Purchaser Objection Period and before the Closing, the Survey or an update to the Title Commitment discloses any additional item that materially and adversely affects the operation of the Property as a multifamily asset and which was not disclosed on any version of the Title Commitment or the Existing Survey (the “New Exception”) and such New Exception was not created by, through or under Purchaser (or parties acting by or through Purchaser), Purchaser shall have a period of three (3) Business Days from the date of its receipt of such update (the “New Exception Review Period”) to review and notify Seller in writing of Purchaser’s objection to the New Exception (a “New Exception Objection Notice”). Seller may, within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of any Purchaser’s Objection Notice or New Exception Objection Notice, advise Purchaser in writing which objections (if any) noted therein it shall cure or cause to be cured prior to the Closing (“Seller's Response”). In the event that Seller does not respond to any Purchaser’s Objection Notice or New Exception Objection Notice, Seller shall be deemed to have declined to cure Purchaser’s objections noted therein. Seller has no obligation to cure any title or survey exceptions except that Seller shall in all events be obligated to cause to be released or insured at Closing all items Seller agrees to cure in Seller’s Response, and cause to be released at Closing the existing mortgage loan in the original principal amount of $12,972,200 secured by the Property (the “Existing Loan”). If, in Seller’s Response, Seller declines, or is deemed to have declined, to cure any item to which Purchaser objected in any Purchaser’s Objection Notice or New Exception Objection Notice, Purchaser shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Xxxxxxx Money; provided, however, Purchaser must exercise such right within five (5) days following receipt of Seller's Response (whether actual or deemed to have been given by Seller by its failure to timely deliver a Seller’s Response). In the event that Purchaser elects under such circumstances to proceed to Closing, any title objections which Seller declines, or is deemed to have declined to cure, shall constitute Permitted Exceptions.
Section 5.4 “Permitted Exceptions” shall include (i) any items set forth on the Title Commitment, the Existing Survey or the Survey accepted or deemed accepted by Purchaser; (ii) any laws, regulations or ordinances (including, but not limited to, zoning, building and environmental matters) as to the use, occupancy, subdivision or improvement of the Property adopted or imposed by any governmental agency; (iii) taxes and assessments which are secured by a lien, but which are not yet billed, or are billed but are not yet due and payable and any assessments not shown on the public record, which taxes, assessments and standby fees for the Closing Tax Year (as defined below, in Section 13.4(c)) shall be prorated at Closing in accordance with Section 13.4; (iv) the rights of residential tenants, as residential tenants only, under the Tenant Leases; and (v) the standard printed exceptions, stipulations and exclusions from coverage contained in the standard ALTA form of owner’s policy of title insurance in use in Tennessee which cannot be removed by the performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement.

Section 10.1 Seller agrees that until the end of the Inspection Period, or the earlier termination of this Agreement, Purchaser, personally or through its authorized agents or representatives, shall be entitled to enter upon the Real Property and the Improvements to conduct such physical and environmental inspections, independent appraisals, and other tests, examinations and studies of the Property and the Property records as Purchaser desires; provided, however, (i) any such tests are not invasive (unless Seller’s written consent thereto has been obtained in advance) and any such activities do not interfere with rights of tenants under the Tenant Leases or the operations of the Property; (ii) Purchaser gives Seller reasonable prior written notice of the time and place of such entry, in order to permit a representative of Seller (or Property Manager) to accompany Purchaser; (iii) Purchaser shall restore any damage to the Property or any adjacent property caused by such actions; (iv) Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and save Seller and, as the case may be, its partners, trustees, shareholders, directors, members, officers, employees and agents (including, without limitation, Property Manager) (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) harmless of and from any and all claims and/or liabilities which Seller and its Indemnified Parties may suffer or be subject by reason or in any manner relating to such entry and such activities by Purchaser or its agents, including, without limitation, any claims by tenants and/or invitees of the Property; provided, however, this indemnity shall not include, and shall specifically exclude, any loss, liability, damage, injury, and claims arising out of or resulting solely from (a) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or any Indemnified Party, or (b) the mere discovery by Purchaser, or its agents, representatives, contractors, or employees, acting within the scope of investigations permitted under this Agreement, of the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance in, on, or under the Property (exclusive of oil, gas and other minerals situated thereunder), provided that such actions have not materially exacerbated such substances or materially increased the likelihood of a release thereof; (v) Purchaser shall not enter into any tenant’s leased premises or communicate with any tenant unless Seller gives Purchaser consent to do so (which consent may be withheld at Seller's sole option) and Purchaser is accompanied by Seller or a representative of Seller (or Property Manager) in each instance; (vi) prior to entry onto the Property by Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s contractors, Purchaser shall furnish to Seller, or cause to be furnished by any contractor or agent of Purchaser conducting any inspection of the Property, a certificate of general liability and property damage insurance maintained such person or entity with occurrence coverage of not less than $1,000,000.00 for injury or death to any one person and $3,000,000.00 for injury or death to more than one person and $500,000.00 with respect to property damage, by water or otherwise, and naming Seller and Property Manager as additional insureds; and (vii) not conduct any environmental investigations or testing other than a standard “Phase I” investigation; provided that should the Phase I investigation recommend further Phase II testing, Purchaser will obtain in advance Seller’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such further testing. All inspection rights under this Section 10.1 shall be subject to the rights of residential tenants under the Tenant Leases.
Section 10.2 If, at any time prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines that it does not desire to close this Agreement, for any reason or no reason, it may give notice of such fact to Seller. In that event, this Agreement shall immediately terminate without further liability on the part of Purchaser or Seller (except for such liability that survives such termination in accordance with the express terms hereof), whereupon the Xxxxxxx Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser by the Escrow Agent. Should this Agreement remain in effect after the expiration of the Inspection Period, any and all Xxxxxxx Money shall thereafter be nonrefundable to Purchaser in all instances (other than as expressly provided herein to the contrary) but shall be applied toward the Purchase Price at Closing; provided, however, in the event the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not closed on or before the Closing Date, and such failure is not due to a default by Seller under this Agreement or a failure of a condition identified in Section 12.2 below not caused by Seller, then Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall disburse any and all Xxxxxxx Money to Seller.

ARTICLE XI
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION PRIOR TO CLOSING; CONDEMNATION
Section 11.1 Casualty.
(a) Prior to the Closing, the risk of loss or damage to the Property by fire, earthquake, hurricane or other casualty shall be borne by Seller. If damage, loss or destruction of the Property or any part thereof, by fire, earthquake, hurricane or other casualty (each a “Casualty”), occurs prior to the Closing, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser of such damage, loss or destruction.
(b) Seller agrees to maintain in full force and effect until the Closing, the fire and extended coverage insurance policies now in effect on the Property (or substitute policies in equal or greater amounts).

(1) less than FOUR hundred thousand and no/100 dollars ($400,000.00), then Seller shall assign to Purchaser, at Closing, all insurance proceeds recoverable for such Casualty damage or pay all such proceeds to Purchaser when received (which obligation shall survive Closing), and Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of any deductible required by Seller’s insurance policies, but there shall be no other credit against or reduction in the Purchase Price attributable to such Casualty; provided, however, Seller shall be obligated to make such emergency repairs as are necessary to prevent further damage to the Property or injury to any person thereon and Seller may use insurance proceeds for this limited purpose (and shall not be obligated to reimburse such amounts to Purchaser nor to reduce the Purchase Price by reason thereof); or
(2) equal to or more than FOUR hundred thousand and no/100 dollars ($400,000.00), then Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of termination to Seller within five (5) Business Days after Seller’s notice to Purchaser of the occurrence of the Casualty (whereupon the Xxxxxxx Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser by the Escrow Agent); and if Purchaser does not timely elect to terminate this Agreement, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived such termination right and shall be required to proceed to Closing hereunder, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser, at Closing, all insurance proceeds recoverable for such damage or pay all such proceeds to Purchaser when received (which obligation shall survive Closing), and Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of any deductible required by Seller’s insurance policies, but there shall be no other credit against or reduction in the Purchase Price attributable to such Casualty; provided, however, Seller shall, to the extent of available insurance proceeds, be obligated to make such emergency repairs as are necessary to prevent further damage to the Property or injury to any person thereon, and Seller may use insurance proceeds for this limited purpose and shall not be obligated to reimburse such amounts to Purchaser nor to reduce the Purchase Price by reason thereof.
16 |
Section 11.2 Condemnation. In the event of a taking or threatened taking by condemnation or similar proceedings or actions (each a “Taking”) of all of the Property, or any portion of the Property, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in writing, and Purchaser shall, in the event that the Taking shall have a materially adverse effect on access to, or parking at, the Property or otherwise affects more than five percent (5%) of the square footage of the Improvements, have the option to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller given within five (5) Business Days following receipt of such notice from Seller, whereupon the Xxxxxxx Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser by the Escrow Agent. If Purchaser does not exercise its option under the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 11.2 to terminate this Agreement, then the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived such termination right and shall be required to proceed to Closing hereunder, and Seller shall assign or pay to Purchaser at Closing Seller’s entire interest in and to any and all awards or proceeds from any such Taking proceedings or actions in lieu thereof and there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price, and Seller shall be relieved of its obligation to convey title to the portion of the Property so taken.

Section 13.1 The Closing hereunder shall take place via an escrow through the Title Company, on or before the Closing Date, with physical attendance of the parties not being required. In the event the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not closed on or before the Closing Date, and such failure is due to a default by Seller under this Agreement or a failure of a condition identified in Section 12.1 where such failure is not caused by Purchaser, then, at Purchaser’s option, this Agreement shall terminate and the Escrow Agent shall disburse any and all Xxxxxxx Money to Purchaser.

(f) An assignment of the Miscellaneous Agreements, in the form of Exhibit I attached hereto, duly executed and acknowledged by Seller;
(g) Such evidence or documents as may be reasonably required by the Title Company evidencing the status and capacity of Seller and the authority of the person or persons who are executing the various documents on behalf of Seller in connection with the sale of the Property;
18 |
(h) All keys to all locks on the Property; all tenant files for current tenants under the Tenant Leases, files pertaining to the operation of Property or the rental business, books, records, advertising materials, and correspondence pertaining to the Property; and all documents in the possession of Seller pertaining to current tenants of the Property, including, but not by way of limitation, any applications, correspondence and credit reports relating to each such current tenant (including files and data in electronic media); provided, however, that Seller may remove all data and programs, including operating systems, from any computers left at the Improvements, which data shall remain the property of Seller; provided that Seller shall provide password access to such computers to Seller. All such materials may be delivered at the Property and do not need to be delivered into escrow with the Title Company;
(i) A FIRPTA Affidavit in a form of Exhibit J attached hereto, duly executed by Seller;
(j) A termination of the existing management agreement with Property Manager for the Property;

Section 13.4 At Closing, the following items shall be adjusted or prorated between Seller and Purchaser:
(a) Rents collected for the Property or portions thereof shall be prorated as of the Closing Date (with the Closing Date belonging to Purchaser). No proration shall be made in relation to delinquent rents existing, if any, as of the Closing Date. In adjusting for uncollected rents, no adjustment shall be made in Seller’s favor for rents which have accrued and are unpaid as of Closing. All rents received by Purchaser within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date shall be applied first to the then current month’s rent, next to any delinquencies owed to Purchaser for months following Closing, next to the month in which Closing occurred, and then to any delinquencies that existed as of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall not be obligated to take any action to collect Seller’s delinquent rents or to incur any out of pocket third party expense in connection with such actions and Purchaser shall not be obligated to take any action to terminate a tenancy. Seller reserves the right to bring suit against tenants of the Property to collect for accrued but unpaid rents owed Seller as of the Closing Date, but Seller may not, subsequent to Closing, bring suit for possession of the premises occupied by such tenants. Any delinquent rents owed to Seller and collected by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 13.4(a) shall, after deduction of any collection expenses actually incurred by Purchaser in connection therewith, be forthwith paid by Purchaser to Seller. This provision shall survive Closing but shall not be deemed an obligation, express or implied, by or on behalf of Purchaser to take any action to collect such delinquent rents.
(b) Seller shall credit against the Purchase Price the amount of any refundable, unapplied security deposits held by Seller pursuant to provisions of any Tenant Leases, together with the aggregate amount of interest owing on such security deposits where interest is owing pursuant to the terms of the applicable Tenant Lease or Tennessee law.
(c) Taxes, ad valorem or otherwise, for the Property for the 2013 (or 2014 if the Closing occurs in 2014) tax year (the “Closing Tax Year”) shall be prorated to date of Closing (with the Closing Date belonging to the Purchaser) based on a calendar year, and Seller shall credit against the Purchase Price the amount of Seller’s pro rata portion of such taxes. Seller’s pro rata portion of such Closing Tax Year taxes shall be based upon taxes actually assessed for the Closing Tax Year; provided, however, if for any reason, taxes for the Closing Tax Year have not been assessed on the Property such proration shall be estimated based upon the most recently published tax rate and valuation for the Property for the immediately preceding tax year (and Seller agrees to provide notice of such valuation to Purchaser upon receipt of same from the applicable tax authorities), and adjusted (and payment made by one party to the other party hereto as required) within thirty (30) days following the date when exact amounts for the Closing Tax Year are available and such adjustment provision shall expressly survive the Closing hereof.
20 |
(d) Purchaser acknowledges that Seller's insurance coverage on the Property shall be terminated as of the Closing and there shall be no proration of the insurance premiums.
(e) All other current income and ordinary operating expenses for or pertaining to the Property, public utility charges, maintenance, service charges, and all other normal operating charges of the Property shall be prorated at the Closing effective as of the Closing Date (with the Closing Date belonging to Purchaser).

Seller shall request from the applicable utility company(ies) that all utility meters be read on the day before the Closing Date and Seller shall credit against the Purchase Price (or furnish evidence of prior payment) an amount equal to all unpaid utility charges incurred or accrued to the reading of such utility meters. At its election, Seller shall be entitled to notify any service provider of its election to terminate any utility service accounts and to receive the return of any utility deposits held by any utility provider, in which event Purchaser shall be responsible for establishing its own replacement arrangements for such services.
In the event any adjustments pursuant to this Section 13.4 are, subsequent to Closing, found to be erroneous, then either party hereto who is entitled to additional monies shall invoice the other party for such additional amounts as may be owing, and such amount shall be paid within ten (10) days from receipt of the invoice. Amounts due under this Section 13.4 shall not be subject to the cap on liability contained in Section 17.1. This covenant shall survive the Closing of the sale contemplated hereby for a period of one (1) year with respect to tax prorations and ninety (90) days with respect to all other prorations, and shall then terminate.
Section 13.5 Closing Costs.
(a) Seller shall pay (i) the costs of its counsel, (ii) one-half (1/2) of the escrow fee charged by the Title Company; and (iii) recording fees for releases of items which Seller is required to release or remove pursuant to this Agreement.
(b) Purchaser shall pay (i) the costs of its counsel, architect, engineers and other professionals and consultants, (ii) the cost of the Survey, (iii) all Title Company charges for the Title Policy, (iv) one-half (1/2) of the escrow fee charged by the Title Company, and (v) all transfer taxes imposed on the recording of the Deed and all other recording fees owing on the documents to be recorded to complete the transactions identified herein, other than recording fees for releases of items which Seller is required to release or remove pursuant to this Agreement.

ARTICLE XIV
ASSIGNMENT
Section 14.1 Purchaser may not assign Purchaser's rights and obligations under this Agreement (which shall include its rights in and to the Xxxxxxx Money) to a third party (“Assignee”) without Seller’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Purchaser shall have the one-time right to transfer all of its rights under this Agreement to an Assignee without Seller’s prior consent (but with notice to Seller of such assignment) so long as Purchaser or an affiliate of Purchaser controls, or is under control with, such Assignee entity. Any permitted assignment shall be on the further conditions that (a) the Assignee expressly assumes the obligations of Purchaser hereunder in a written agreement, which agreement will also set forth the Assignee's taxpayer identification number, and (b) Assignee conforms with the requirements set forth in Section 7.2. Purchaser shall promptly provide Seller with a copy of any such written assignment. Any attempt to assign the Agreement other than in accordance with this Section 14.1 shall be null and void and considered a default hereunder. Notwithstanding any such permitted assignment, Purchaser shall remain liable for the performance of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.1, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of Seller and Purchaser (including a permitted Assignee), and no third party (including, without limitation, subsequent owners of the Property) is intended to be a beneficiary of or have the right to enforce this Agreement.
ARTICLE XV
REAL ESTATE COMMISSION
Section 15.1 Seller and Purchaser represent and warrant each to the other that they have not dealt with any real estate broker, sales person or finder in connection with this transaction other than CBRE – Xxxxx Xxxxxx (as “Seller's Broker”). Seller does hereby represent and warrant that it, its members, officers, employees and agents have not contracted for any real estate commissions or similar fees and Seller has not acted in a manner so as to give rise to a claim for such real estate commissions or similar fee, except as provided in this Section 15.1. Seller shall be responsible for the payment of real estate commissions due and payable to Seller's Broker, as provided by separate written agreement between Seller and Seller’s Broker. Seller does hereby agree to indemnify and defend Purchaser against and hold Purchaser harmless from any and all such real estate commissions, claims to such commissions or similar fees, including costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in any lawsuit regarding such commissions or fees, to the extent such claims or liabilities are based upon the actions of Seller. In connection therewith, Purchaser does hereby represent and warrant that it, its officers, employees, members and agents have not contracted for any real estate commissions or similar fees and Purchaser has not acted in a manner so as to give rise to a claim for such real estate commissions or similar fee. Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the payment of any and all real estate commissions, claims to such commissions or similar fees arising, directly or indirectly, out of this transaction and based upon the actions of Purchaser. Purchaser does hereby agree to indemnify and defend Seller and hold Seller harmless from and against any other real estate commissions, claims to such commissions or similar fees, including costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in any lawsuit regarding such commissions and fees, to the extent such claims or liabilities are based upon actions of Purchaser. The indemnity provisions of this Section 15.1 shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.
22 |
ARTICLE XVI
REMEDIES OF DEFAULT
Section 16.1 In the event of Seller's default at any time during the term hereof, and Seller’s failure to cure such default within three (3) days thereafter, Purchaser may elect, at its option, as its sole and exclusive remedy, (a) to terminate this Agreement, in which case the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser by the Escrow Agent promptly after receipt of Purchaser’s demand therefor, and Purchaser and Seller shall be released from any further liability hereunder except for any liability that survives such termination by the express terms hereof, or (b) enforce specific performance hereunder against Seller. If Purchaser fails to file an action for specific performance within 90 days after the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate the Contract in accordance with subsection (a) above. Purchaser specifically waives the right to file any lis pendens or any lien against the Property unless and until it has irrevocably elected to seek specific performance of this Agreement and has filed and is diligently pursuing an action seeking such remedy; provided that in the event the remedy of specific performance is not available because of Seller’s conveyance of the Property to a bona fide purchaser, Purchaser shall as entitled to recover its actual damages incurred, not to exceed $50,000.
Section 16.2 In the event that Seller is unable to consummate the sale contemplated hereby due to a default by Purchaser, then, as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy and relief, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be paid to Seller by the Escrow Agent as liquidated damages for Purchaser’s default. Such amount is agreed upon by and between Seller and Purchaser as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, due to the difficulty and inconvenience of ascertaining and measuring actual damages, and the uncertainty thereof; and no other damages, rights or remedies shall in any case be collectible, enforceable or available to Seller other than as specified in this Article XVI, but Seller shall accept said cash payment as Seller's total damages and relief.
Section 16.3 Seller and Purchaser specifically acknowledge and agree that any limitation on remedies set forth in this Article XVI does not apply to the express hold harmless and indemnification agreements set forth in this Agreement or to the amounts recoverable pursuant to Section 18.5 below.
