(B) Prorations. The following shall be prorated, credited, debited and adjusted between Seller and Buyer as of 12:01 a.m. on the day of the Closing (except as otherwise provided) in accordance with this section. For purposes of calculating prorations, Buyer shall be deemed to be in title to the Property, and therefore entitled to the income and responsible for the expenses, for the entire day upon which the Closing occurs. Except as hereinafter expressly provided, all prorations shall be done on the basis of a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year and the actual number of days elapsed to the Closing Date or the actual number of days in the month in which the Closing occurs and the actual number of days elapsed in such month to the Closing Date, as applicable.
(1) Rents. Buyer will receive a credit at closing for all rents collected by Seller prior to the Closing Date and allocable to the period from and after the Closing Date based upon the actual number of days in the month. Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that the tenant of Suite 306 South does not commence paying Base Rent under its lease until August 1, 2010, and that the tenant of Suite 404 North does not commence paying Base Rent under its lease until the sixth (6th) month after the Commencement Date (as defined in the lease for Suite 404 North). Seller has agreed to pay to Buyer an amount equal to the monthly installments of Base Rent for Suite 306 South and Suite 404 North during the period of time between the Closing Date and the date that the foregoing tenants commence paying rent. Accordingly, in addition to the Rental Escrow described in Section 8(D) below, Buyer shall receive credits at Closing in the following amounts: (i) a credit in an amount equal to Two Thousand Eight Hundred Seventeen and Fifty/100 Dollars ($2,817.50) multiplied by the number of months between the Closing Date and August 1, 2010; provided that any sum due for a partial month shall be prorated on a daily basis, based on a thirty (30) day calendar month (the “Suite 306 South Rent Credit”); and (ii) a credit in the sum of Twenty-One Thousand Six Hundred Thirty-Eight and Seventy-Five/100 Dollars ($21,638.75) (the “Suite 404 North Rent Credit”). No credit shall be given Seller for accrued and unpaid rent or any other non-current sums due from tenants until these sums are paid, and Seller shall retain the right to collect any such rent provided Seller does not evict any tenants or terminate any Leases. Buyer shall cooperate with Seller after the Closing Date to collect any rent under the Leases which has accrued as of the Closing Date; provided, however, Buyer shall not be obligated to xxx any tenants or exercise any legal remedies under the Leases or to incur any expense over and above its own regular collection expenses. All payments collected from tenants after the Closing Date shall first be applied to the month in which the Closing occurs, then to any rent due to Buyer for the period after the Closing Date and finally to any rent due to Seller for the periods prior to Closing Date; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller collects any payments from tenants after the Closing Date through its own collection efforts, Seller may first apply such payments to rent due Seller for the period prior to the Closing Date.
(2) CAM Expenses. To the extent that tenants are reimbursing the landlord for common area maintenance and other operating expenses (collectively, “CAM Charge(s)”), CAM Charges shall be prorated at Closing as of the Closing Date on a lease-by-lease basis with each party being entitled to receive a portion of the CAM Charges payable under each Lease for the CAM Lease Year (as defined below) in which Closing occurs, which portion shall be equal to the actual CAM Charges paid by tenants during the CAM Lease Year. Such proration at Closing shall be based on the actual CAM Charges paid by tenants, subject to a reconciliation as set forth below. As used herein, the term “CAM Lease Year” means the twelve (12) month period as to which annual CAM Charges are owed under each Lease. Seller shall be responsible for the CAM reconciliation on a lease-by-lease basis for their ownership period within the CAM Lease Year up to, but not including, the Closing Date. Buyer shall be responsible for the CAM reconciliation on a lease-by-lease basis for their ownership period within the CAM Lease Year including the Closing Date. In the event of any expenses, i.e. property taxes, where a proration was based on an estimate for the year of Closing, a post close “true up” will be performed for the actual expense to determine Seller and Buyer obligation for their ownership period for the year of Closing. Each party will be responsible for any CAM “true up” necessary to the extent that the Leases provide for a “true up”.
(3) Security Deposits, Unpaid Rent Concessions, Unpaid Tenant Improvement Allowances and Other Tenant Credits. The amount of all unapplied tenant security deposit, any accrued interest due any tenant thereon, unpaid rent concessions due under any Lease, unpaid tenant improvement allowances owing under any Lease and the amount of any other credits due any tenant shall be credited to Buyer based on a rental statement prepared by Seller and approved by Buyer (which statement must be consistent with the applicable Tenant Lease, the estoppel certificate and the final rent roll).
(4) Property Taxes. All real property taxes and assessments for the year immediately preceding the year of Closing that are payable in the year of Closing, and for years prior thereto, shall be paid by Seller on or before the Closing. Real property taxes and assessments for the year of Closing shall be prorated on the basis of the most recent assessment and levy, and such proration shall be final. Any and all refunds, credits, claims or rights to appeal respecting the amount of any real property taxes or other taxes or assessments charged in connection with the Property for any period shall belong to Buyer following the Closing, except that if prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period Seller has applied for a property tax refund or has appealed the County Assessor’s valuation of the Property for any period of time prior to the Closing Date, then Seller shall be entitled to any refund applicable to such period.
(5) Private Assessments. Payments due under any assessments imposed by private covenant shall be prorated as of the Closing.
(6) Operating Expenses. All operating expenses (including all charges under the Contracts and agreements assumed by Buyer) shall be prorated, and as to each service provider, operating expenses payable or paid to such service provider in respect to the billing period of such service provider in which the Closing occurs (the “Current Billing Period’), shall be prorated on a per diem basis based upon the number of days in the Current Billing Period prior to the Closing Date and the number of days in the Current Billing Period from and after the Closing Date, and assuming that all charges are incurred uniformly during the Current Billing Period. If actual bills for the Current Billing Period are unavailable as of the Closing Date, then such proration shall be made on an estimated basis based upon the most recently issued bills, subject to readjustment upon receipt of actual bills.
(7) Leasing Commissions. At Closing, Buyer shall receive a credit for any rent concessions that have not been fully utilized at Closing and for any tenant improvement costs or leasing commissions that have not been fully satisfied at Closing.
(8) Items Not Prorated. Seller and Buyer agree that (a) on the Closing Date, the Property will not be subject to any financing arranged by Seller; (b) none of the insurance policies relating to the Property will be assigned to Buyer and Buyer shall be responsible for arranging for its own insurance as of the Closing Date; and (c) utilities, including telephone, electricity, water, and gas, shall be read on the Closing Date and Buyer shall be responsible for all the necessary actions needed to arrange for utilities to be transferred to the name of Buyer on the Closing Date, including the posting of any required deposits and Seller shall be entitled to recover and retain from the providers of such utilities any refunds or overpayments to the extent applicable to the period prior to the Closing Date, and any utility deposits which it or its predecessors may have posted. Accordingly, there will be no prorations for debt service, insurance or utilities. In the event a meter reading is unavailable for any particular utility, such utility shall be prorated in the manner agreed upon by Seller and Buyer, both acting reasonably.
(9) Other Items. All other items customarily prorated or required by any other provision of this Agreement to be prorated or adjusted.
(C) Calculation / Re-prorations. Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer no later than three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date an estimated closing statement which shall set forth all costs payable, and the prorations and credits provided for in this Agreement and to the extent Seller does not timely deliver the estimated closing statement to Buyer, Buyer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to extend the Closing Date by the number of days Seller is delinquent in delivering such estimated closing statement to Buyer. Any item which cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and adjusted when the information is available in accordance with this subsection. Buyer shall notify Seller within two (2) days after its receipt of such estimated closing statement of any items which Buyer disputes and the parties shall attempt in good faith to reconcile any differences not later than one (1) day before the Closing Date. The estimated closing statement as adjusted as aforesaid and approved in writing by the parties shall be referred to therein as the “Closing Statement”. If the prorations and credits made under the Closing Statement shall prove to be incorrect or incomplete for any reason, then either party shall be entitled to an adjustment to correct the same; provided, however, that any adjustment shall be made, if at all, within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date except with respect to CAM Charges in which case such adjustment shall be made within sixty (60) days after the information necessary to perform such adjustment is available; provided, however, that Seller and Buyer shall complete their respective CAM reconciliations by March 31, 2011, and such final adjustment for CAM Charges shall be completed no later than April 30, 2011), and if a party fails to request an adjustment to the Closing Statement by a written notice delivered to the other party within the applicable period set forth above (such notice to specify in reasonable detail the items within the Closing Statement that such party desires to adjust and the reasons for such adjustment), then the prorations and credits set forth in the Closing Statement shall be binding and conclusive against such party.
(D) Indemnification. Buyer and Seller shall each indemnify, protect, defend and hold the other harmless from and against any claim in any way arising from the matters for which the other receives a credit or otherwise assumes responsibility pursuant to this Section.

Seller and Buyer covenant and agree to execute at Closing a written notice of the acquisition of the Property by Buyer, in sufficient copies for transmittal to each tenant affected by the sale and purchase of the Property and properly addressed to each tenant. Such notice shall be prepared by Seller, at Seller’s cost and expense, and approved by Buyer, shall notify the tenant of the sale and transfer and shall contain appropriate instructions relating to the payment of future rentals, the giving of future notices and other matters reasonably required by Buyer or required by law. Unless a different procedure is required by applicable law, in which event such laws shall be controlling, Seller agrees to transmit or otherwise deliver such letters to the tenants promptly after the Closing.
8. Post-Closing Obligations.
(A) After the Closing, Seller shall at Seller’s sole cost construct those tenant improvements in the Building in Suite 306 South for Xx.

The Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner, and in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. To the extent that the plans for the Tenant Improvements for Suite 404 North have not been approved by Seller pursuant to the lease prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, after the end of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall have the right to review and approve such plans in its reasonable discretion; provided that such review and approval shall be in accordance with the lease.

Seller shall not permit any mechanic’s liens to be filed against the Property for any work performed, materials furnished, or obligation incurred by Seller in connection with the Tenant Improvements. If such a lien is filed, then Seller shall, within thirty (30) days after it has received notice of the filing, pay or otherwise discharge the lien. If Seller fails to timely take such action, then Buyer may, at its election, pay the lien claim without inquiry as to the validity thereof, and any amounts so paid, plus Buyer’s expenses and an administrative fee equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the amount paid, shall be paid by Seller to Buyer within ten (10) days after Buyer has delivered to Seller an invoice therefor.

Any sums remaining in the Rental Escrow after either (i) Buyer receives the foregoing Commencement Date/Premises Acceptance Memorandum, or (ii) Buyer receives the Buyer Retained Escrow Holdback pursuant to Section 8(C) above shall be disbursed to Seller, except as otherwise set forth in Section 12(V) below.

(F) The provisions of this Section 8 shall survive Closing.
9. Default.
In the event of any material default on the part of either party under this Agreement, (including if Seller willfully causes the failure of a condition precedent pursuant to Section 6(D) hereof) which continues for ten (10) days after receipt of written notice from the other party (except that no notice shall be required for default under any obligation to be performed at Closing), the following shall apply:
(A) If Buyer is the defaulting party, and Seller has performed or tendered performance of all of its material obligations in accordance with this Agreement, Seller shall, as its sole remedy, terminate this Agreement and retain the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages, and Seller and Buyer shall have no further obligations to each other except those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. BUYER AND SELLER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE DAMAGES TO SELLER IN THE EVENT OF A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT BY BUYER WOULD BE DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE, THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT PLUS INTEREST REPRESENTS THE PARTIES’ BEST AND MOST ACCURATE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES THAT WOULD BE SUFFERED BY SELLER IF THE TRANSACTION SHOULD FAIL TO CLOSE AND THAT SUCH ESTIMATE IS REASONABLE UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT AND UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT SELLER AND BUYER REASONABLY ANTICIPATE WOULD EXIST AT THE TIME OF SUCH BREACH. BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT SELLER’S RIGHT TO RETAIN THE DEPOSIT TOGETHER WITH ANY INTEREST AND EARNINGS EARNED THEREON SHALL BE SELLER’S SOLE REMEDY, AT LAW AND IN EQUITY, FOR BUYER’S FAILURE TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. SELLER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO AN ACTION FOR SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF ANY PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.
BY PLACING THEIR INITIALS HERE:
SELLER /s/DK, BUYER/s/DP,
THE PARTIES AGREE TO BUYER DEFAULT PROVISIONS AS SET FORTH ABOVE.
(B) If Seller is the defaulting party, Buyer may (i) waive such failure and proceed to the Closing with no reduction in the Purchase Price; provided, however, that this provision will not limit Buyer’s right to receive reimbursement for attorney’s fees pursuant to Section 12(J) below in connection with any legal proceedings instituted by either party or Escrow Agent with respect to the enforcement of this Agreement, nor waive or affect Seller’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement or Buyer’s rights to enforce those indemnity obligations, nor waive or affect any of Seller’s other obligations under this Agreement to be performed after the Closing or Buyer’s rights to enforce those obligations; (ii) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be refunded to Buyer, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive reimbursement of Buyer’s actually incurred out of pocket costs in conjunction with the Agreement; or (iii) seek specific performance against Seller.
10. Casualty. If the Building is damaged by casualty prior to the Closing and either (i) the casualty results in loss or damage in an amount valued greater than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00), or (ii) the nature of such casualty results in a circumstance whereby a tenant under the Leases may terminate its lease or receive a rent abatement, then Buyer shall have the sole option to elect either to:
(a) acquire the Property as is (without reduction in the Purchase Price), plus an assignment without recourse or credit of any insurance proceeds payable by virtue of such loss or damage plus a credit for any deductible under said polity; or
(b) | terminate this Agreement and receive back the Xxxxxxx Money. |
Such right must be exercised within thirty (30) days from the date Seller provides Buyer with notice of the loss of the event giving rise to such right. If Buyer fails to provide notice of an election, then Buyer shall have been deemed to elect (b) above.
11. Condemnation. In the event that any portion of the Real Property should be condemned prior to the Closing, at Buyer’s sole option, elect either to:
(a) terminate this Agreement and receive back the Xxxxxxx Money; or
(b) | close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. |
In all other cases, or if Buyer elects to proceed under Section 11(b), Buyer shall purchase the Property in accordance with the terms hereof (without reduction in the Purchase Price) and Seller shall assign to Buyer at Closing all condemnation proceeds payable as a result of such condemnation. Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to proceed under Section 11(b) unless, within thirty (30) days from written notice of the condemnation, Buyer provides Seller with written notice that Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11(a).
12. Miscellaneous.

(D) This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties to this Agreement and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Buyer shall have the right to assign this Agreement to any third party or parties and no consent on the part of Seller shall be required for such assignment, provided however, that any such assignment shall not relieve Buyer of its liabilities and obligations hereunder.
(E) Any waiver by either party to this Agreement of any breach or failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement by the other must be in writing to be effective and will not be construed as, or constitute a continuing waiver of the provision, or a waiver of any other breach or failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement.
(F) Risk of loss will remain with Seller until the Closing.
(G) Except for Xxxxx & Xxxxx and The King Group Realty, Inc. (collectively, the “Broker”), the parties warrant and represent to each other that no brokers, finders, or any other third party have a right to a brokerage fee, finders fee or other remuneration with respect to the sale of the Property. Each party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless from and against all demands, suits, costs and liabilities including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, arising from any claims by any broker, finder or other third party claiming through a party to this Agreement for commissions, fees or other compensation in connection with the sale of the Property to Buyer other than the Broker. Seller shall pay a commission to Broker pursuant to a separate agreement.
(H) Any waiver by either party to this Agreement must be in writing to be effective and will not be construed as, or constitute a continuing waiver of, any other breach or failure to comply with any other provision of this Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all negotiations, prior discussions, letters of intent, agreements, arrangements and understandings, written or oral, relating thereto.
(I) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the internal laws of the State of Ohio without regard to the principles of conflicts of law.
(J) In the event of a judicial or administrative proceeding or action by one party against the other party with respect to the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable costs and expenses including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, whether at the investigative, pretrial, trial or appellate level. The prevailing party shall be determined by the court based upon an assessment of which party’s major arguments or position prevailed.
(K) Buyer and Seller agree that Escrow Agent shall act as “the person responsible for closing” the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 6045(e) and shall prepare and file all informational returns, including without limitation, IRS Form 1099-S, and shall otherwise comply with the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 6045(e).
(L) If the time for performance of any obligation hereunder expires on a day that is not a business day, the time for performance shall be extended to the next business day.
(M) No modification of this Agreement shall be deemed effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.
(N) Each party, promptly upon the request of the other, shall execute and have acknowledged and delivered to the other or to the Escrow Agent, as may be appropriate, any and all further instruments reasonably requested or appropriate to evidence or give effect to the provisions of this Agreement and which are consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.
(O) The descriptive headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any provisions of this Agreement. Words such as “herein,” “hereinafter,” “hereof’ and “hereunder” when used in reference to this Agreement, refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear, unless the context otherwise requires. The singular shall include the plural and the masculine sender shall include the feminine and neuter, and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The word “including” shall not be restrictive and shall be interpreted as if followed by the words “without limitation.”
(P) This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the fact that it may have been prepared primarily by counsel for one of the parties, it being recognized that both Buyer and Seller have contributed substantially and materially to the preparation of this Agreement.
(Q) The parties hereto intend and believe that each provision in this Agreement comports with all applicable local, state and federal laws and judicial decisions. However, if any provision in this Agreement is found by a court of law to be in violation of any applicable local, state or federal law, statute, ordinance, administrative or judicial decision, or public policy, or if in any other respect such a court declares any such provision to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable as written, then it is the intent of all parties hereto that, consistent with and with a view towards preserving the economic and legal arrangements among the parties hereto as expressed in this Agreement, such provision shall be given force and effect to the fullest possible extent, and that the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed as if such illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable provision were not contained herein, and that the rights, obligations and interests of the parties under the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
(R) After the Effective Date, Seller and its respective agents, representatives and employees shall immediately cease all marketing of the Property until such time as this Agreement is terminated and Seller shall not directly or indirectly make, accept, negotiate, entertain or otherwise pursue any offers for the sale of the Property.
(S) Either party may consummate the purchase or sale of the Property as part of a so-called like kind exchange (an “Exchange”) pursuant to section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), provided that (i) the Closing shall not be delayed or affected by reason of an Exchange nor shall the consummation or accomplishment of any Exchange be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to a party’s obligations under this Agreement; (ii) any party desiring an Exchange shall effect its Exchange through an assignment of this Agreement, or its rights under this Agreement, to a qualified intermediary and the other party shall not be required to take an assignment of the purchase agreement for the relinquished or replacement property or be required to acquire or hold title to any real property for purposes of consummating such Exchange; and (iii) the party desiring an Exchange shall pay any additional costs that would not otherwise have been incurred by Buyer or Seller had such party not consummated its purchase or sale through an Exchange. Neither party shall by this agreement or acquiescence to an Exchange desired by the other party (1) have its rights under this Agreement affected or diminished in any manner or (2) be responsible for compliance with or be deemed to have warranted to the other party that such party’s Exchange in fact complies with section 1031 of the Code. In connection with such cooperation, Seller agrees, upon request of Buyer to “direct deed” for actual interests in the property to designees of Buyer.
(T) Seller acknowledges that Buyer is the wholly owned subsidiary of a publicly registered company (“Registered Company”) and that Buyer and/or the Registered Company is required to make certain filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC Filings”) that relate to the most recent pre-acquisition fiscal year (the “Audited Year”) and the current fiscal year through the date of acquisition (the “stub period”) for the Property. To assist the Buyer and the Registered Company in preparing the SEC Filings, the Seller agrees to provide the Buyer with the following: (i) access to bank statements for the Audited year and stub period; (ii) rent roll as of the end of the Audited Year and stub period; (iii) operating statements for the Audited Year and stub period; (iv) access to the general ledger for the Audited Year and stub period; (v) cash receipts schedule for each month in the Audited Year and stub period; (vi) access to invoice for expenses and capital improvements in the Audited Year and stub period; (vii) accounts payable ledger and accrued expense reconciliations; (viii) check register for the 3-months following the Audited Year and stub period; (ix) all leases and 5-year lease schedules; (x) copies of all insurance documentation for the Audited Year and stub period; (xi) copies of accounts receivable aging as of the end of the Audited Year and stub period along with an explanation for all accounts over 30 days past due as of the end of the Audited Year and stub period; (xii) signed representation letter in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “E”, and (xiv) to the extent necessary a signed audit letter in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “F”. The provisions of this subsection (T) shall survive Closing.
(U) Seller acknowledges that Buyer is the subsidiary of a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) and that, as such, it is subject to certain filing and reporting requirements in accordance with federal laws and regulations, including but not limited to, regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or the provisions of any other existing agreement between the parties hereto to the contrary, Buyer may publicly file, disclose, report or publish any and all information related to this transaction that may be reasonably interpreted as being required by federal law or regulation.
(V) Seller Escrow. Seller and Buyer agree that on the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Escrow Agent a deposit in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Seller Escrow”). The Seller Escrow shall be held in an insured, interest-bearing account with interest accruing for the benefit of Seller. For purposes of this Agreement the term “Seller Escrow” shall include any and all interest earned thereon. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Seller Escrow in accordance with an escrow agreement mutually acceptable to Seller and Buyer, which shall be agreed upon during the Due Diligence Period (the “Seller Escrow Agreement”), for a period beginning on the Closing Date and continuing until the later of (i) the date that is one (1) year after the Closing Date; and (ii) the date that Seller’s obligations under Section 7(C) above are fully satisfied. After the expiration of the foregoing period, the Escrow Agent shall immediately release the Seller Escrow to Seller unless Escrow Agent shall have received a written notice from Buyer that such funds are in dispute due to a breach by Seller of the terms of this Agreement or a breach by Seller under the documents to be signed at Closing, and in such event the Escrow Agent shall hold the Seller Escrow until Escrow Agent receives escrow instructions signed by both Seller and Buyer or a court of competent jurisdiction authorizes the release. In the event that the Seller Escrow is depleted but Buyer has outstanding claims against Seller for a breach of its post-Closing obligations under this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to draw on any remaining sums held pursuant to the Tenant Improvements Escrow Agreement, Escrow Holdback Agreement, or Rental Escrow Agreement at its election to satisfy such claims. The provisions of this section shall survive Closing and shall not merge into the deed conveying title to the Property to Buyer.
