Closing Matters
5.1 Time and Place for Closing. Subject to the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent herein set forth, the Closing shall take place on that date which is thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, at the offices of the Title Company, by means of a so-called New York style closing, provided however, the parties agree to mutually endeavor in good faith to conduct the Closing by December 20, 2018. The date on which the transactions herein contemplated shall be consummated is herein referred to as the “Closing Date” and the transactions occurring at that time are herein referred to as “Closing.” No party shall be obligated to agree to any date or time for Closing except the date and time herein set forth except at its sole and absolute discretion.
5.2 Title Commitment and Title Policy; Survey.
a. Title Commitment. Seller shall, within five (5) business days after the Effective Date, obtain and deliver to Buyer a current commitment for an ALTA Owner’s Title Insurance Policy (the “Title Commitment”) from the Title Company relating to the Property in an amount equal to the Purchase Price for the Property. The title commitment delivered hereunder shall be conclusive evidence of good and marketable title as therein shown, subject only to those exceptions as therein stated. Buyer shall have the right to have a survey (the “Updated Survey”) of the Property prepared at the sole cost and expense of Buyer and Buyer shall order such Updated Survey within three (3) days of receipt of the Title Commitment. Buyer shall have until five (5) business days after receipt of the Title Commitment and Updated Survey, if applicable (the “Title Review Period”) to give Seller a detailed notice objecting to any exception or condition contained in the Title Commitment or the Updated Survey. If Buyer does not give notice of any objections to Seller within the Title Review Period, Buyer 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 Buyer provides timely objections, Seller shall have five (5) business days after receipt of Buyer’s notice (the “Title Cure Period”) in which to elect, by written notice to Buyer (“Seller’s Title Notice”), either (A) to cure Buyer’s objections, or (B) not to cure Buyer’s objections; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever to cure or attempt to cure any of Buyer’s objections. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Seller shall be obligated, at Closing, to cause Title Company to remove deeds of trust, mortgages, security deeds or other security liens encumbering the Property, except the currently existing mortgage in favor of Lender which will be assumed by Buyer, which are caused by or due to the acts of Seller (the “Required Cure Items”). In the event Seller is unable to cause the Title Company to remove or insure over any Required Cure Items, Buyer’s sole remedy shall be to terminate the Agreement at which time the Title Company shall return the Xxxxxxx Money to Buyer and the parties shall have no further rights, liabilities, or obligations under this Agreement (other than those that expressly survive termination). In the event that Seller
10
fails to provide such written notice of its election to proceed under either clause (A) or (B) above, Seller shall be deemed to have elected clause (B) above. If Buyer provides timely objections and all of Buyer’s objections are not cured (or agreed to be cured by Seller prior to Closing) within the Title Cure Period for any reason, then, within five (5) days after receipt or deemed receipt of Seller’s Title Notice, Buyer 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 Title Company shall return the Xxxxxxx Money to Buyer 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 proceeding to Closing and thereby be deemed to have approved the Buyer’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 Buyer’s election to terminate under this Section, Buyer will be deemed to have waived the uncured objections and such uncured objections shall become “Permitted Exceptions”.
b. Title Policies. At the Closing and as a condition precedent to the obligations of Buyer hereunder, the Title Company shall deliver to Buyer, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, a title insurance policy or proforma policy issued by the Title Company in the amount of the Purchase Price and otherwise in accordance with the Title Company’s commitment therefor as set forth above, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, showing fee simple title to the Real Property as vested in Buyer (the “Title Policy”). Buyer may request the issuance at the Closing of such endorsements to such Title Policy as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that issuance of such endorsements shall not be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligations hereunder and Seller shall not incur any costs or expenses in connection with the issuance of such endorsements.
c. Closing Costs. All costs of preparation, issuance and delivery of the Title Commitment and the premium for the standard coverage Title Policy and any endorsements (to the extent available) required to be delivered hereunder shall be paid by Seller. The cost of any documentary transfer taxes (however characterized) (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be paid by the Seller. The cost of recording and registering the Deed shall be paid by Buyer, and Seller shall pay the cost of recording any instruments required to remove title exceptions which are not Permitted Exceptions and which Seller has agreed to remove pursuant to Section 5.2. Buyer shall be responsible for payment of the cost of the Updated Survey, the costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with its due diligence investigations of the Property and the cost of any additional title premiums for extended coverage and any endorsements requested by Buyer. Seller and Buyer shall pay equal shares of the fee charged by the Title Company for conducting the escrow closing.

With regard to rents that are uncollected as of the Closing Date, (i) no proration will be made at the Closing, (ii) Buyer will make a reasonable effort after the Closing to collect the rents in the usual course of Buyer’s operation of the Property, but shall not be obligated to incur any extraordinary cost or expense in connection therewith, and (iii) Buyer will apply all rents collected (A) first to the then-current month’s rental obligation due from such Tenant, (B) then towards any delinquent amounts relating to the period from and after the Closing Date; and (C) then towards delinquent rents owed to Seller with respect to the period prior to the Closing Date. It is further agreed, however, that Buyer will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect uncollected rents and Seller shall be entitled to xxx the Tenant to collect same (provided that Seller shall not seek termination of such Tenant’s Leases). Rents collected by Buyer after the Closing Date, to which Seller is entitled, shall be promptly paid to Seller.

General real estate taxes, special assessments and personal property taxes relating to the Property (including the personal property) (a) for each day in 2018 and all tax years prior to the Date of Closing shall be fully paid or credited to the Buyer at Closing (in accordance with the terms hereof), and (b) accrued and payable for each day in 2018 shall be prorated with respect to the Property with Seller responsible for payment of such taxes through 11:59 p.m. on the date before the Date of Closing and Buyer shall pay the taxes related to the period for which a credit is provided at Closing. If tax bills for the calendar year 2018 are not available as to the taxes that are to be prorated, then such taxes to be prorated between Seller and Buyer shall be prorated based on 100% of the most recent tax bills and, such proration shall be final and shall not be reprorated upon the availability of actual bills for the applicable period.
c. Operating Expenses. All electricity, water, gas, sewage and other utility and operating expenses (other than with respect to property management fees and Property Contracts to be terminated prior to Closing), if any, shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing based on estimates of the amounts that will be due and payable on the next payment date, unless final readings or invoices are available as of Closing.

In conducting any inspection, Buyer agrees not to disturb the Tenants and to use due care and prudence in performing such inspections. Buyer agrees to supply Seller with copies of any study, report or document created by any third party in connection with Buyer’s investigations and tests of the Property promptly upon Seller’s request therefor. Buyer shall promptly repair any damage resulting from any such test or inspection and Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenants, Seller, Seller’s property manager and their affiliates harmless from and against all loss, cost, claims, damage and liability (including reasonable costs of defense) which may be asserted or recovered against Tenant, Seller, Seller’s property manager or their affiliates arising by reason of any such test or inspection or out of the performance of Buyer’s investigations at the Property.

b. Approval Notice. In the event that Buyer provides Seller with written notice on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period that Buyer has determined to proceed with the purchase transaction, Buyer shall deliver written notice to Seller (the “Approval Notice”), and shall deliver the Additional Xxxxxxx Money to Escrow Agent. In the event Buyer fails to deliver the Approval Notice, then Buyer will be deemed to have terminated this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate, the Initial Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Buyer, Buyer shall return to Seller all documents provided by Seller with respect to the Property, and no party hereto shall have any further liability to the others hereunder, other than Buyer’s repair and indemnity obligations set forth in Section 7.2(a) and Buyer’s document return obligations set forth in this Section 7.2(b).

Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event this Agreement terminates, Buyer’s obligation to return documents shall survive such termination of this Agreement.
7.3 Conditions Precedent to Seller’s Obligations. In addition to any other conditions herein contained for the benefit of Seller, satisfaction or waiver by Seller on or prior to the Closing Date of each of the following shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of Seller to sell the Property to Buyer:
a. Buyer shall have paid, at the Closing, the required amount of the Purchase Price, plus or minus any net prorations or adjustments.
b. Buyer shall have completed all of the other deliveries required to be delivered by Buyer under Section 5.5 and elsewhere in this Agreement provided, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

7.4 Waiver. Each of the parties hereto shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion, but under no circumstances shall be obligated, to waive or defer compliance by the other party with any of the above conditions precedent to their respective obligations hereunder; provided, however, except as set forth in the last two sentences of this Section 7.4, no waiver shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument, executed by the waiving party and delivered to the other party. Except as set forth in the last two sentences of this Section 7.4, no act or circumstance, other than the delivery of a written waiver as contemplated by the preceding sentence shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any condition herein set forth. No waiver given on one occasion shall obligate the waiving party to grant similar waivers or deferrals in any other circumstance or on any other occasion. If any condition to Buyer’s obligation to proceed with the Closing hereunder has not been satisfied as of the Closing Date or other applicable date, Buyer may nevertheless proceed to Close, notwithstanding the non-satisfaction of such condition, in which event Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such condition. If any condition to Seller’s obligation to proceed with the Closing hereunder has not been satisfied as of the Closing Date or other applicable date, Seller may nevertheless elect to proceed to Close, notwithstanding the non-satisfaction of such condition, in which event Seller shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such condition.

a. Notices Received by Seller. Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer copies of any written notices received by Seller from any governmental agency alleging any violation of any applicable law or ordinance with respect to the Property which, if the facts alleged therein were true, would constitute a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller herein contained.

If, prior to the Closing Date, the Property shall be taken or threatened in writing to be taken by exercise of the right of eminent domain, or there shall be taken or threatened in writing to be taken such a material part thereof that, as determined by the terms of the Leases, the taking materially interferes or would materially interfere with the economic operation or use of the Property, then Buyer may elect to terminate its obligations under this Agreement by written notice to such effect given to Seller within ten (10) days after receipt by Buyer of the Condemnation Notice, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Buyer and no party shall have any further obligation and liability to the other parties hereunder. If, Buyer does not so elect to terminate its obligations hereunder, then the Closing of the sale hereby contemplated shall take place as herein provided without any abatement of the Purchase Price, and at the Closing Seller shall assign to the Buyer, by written instrument, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any condemnation award which may be payable to Seller on account of such condemnation. If, prior to the Closing Date, one or more portions of the Real Property shall be taken by exercise of right of eminent domain in a manner which does not, as determined by the terms of the Leases, materially interfere with the economic operation or use of the affected Property, then Buyer shall not have the right to terminate its obligations hereunder by reason thereof and at the Closing, Seller shall assign to the Buyer, by written instrument, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any condemnation awards which may be payable to Seller on account of such condemnation. For purposes hereof, the term “taking” shall include any temporary as well as permanent takings.
19
8.3 Casualty. Seller assumes all risks and liability for damage to or injury occurring to the Property by fire, storm, accident, or any other casualty or cause until the Closing has been consummated.

If the Property, or any part thereof, suffers any damage equal to less than One Million and no/100 Dollars ($1,000,000) prior to the Closing, Buyer agrees that it will consummate the Closing and accept the assignment of the proceeds of any insurance covering such damage, including any and all rent loss insurance proceeds relating to the period from and after the Closing Date (plus receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the sum of (i) Seller’s deductible under its insurance policy and (ii) the amount of any uninsured loss) and there shall be no other reduction in the Purchase Price.
