ARTICLE 2
TITLE AND SURVEY
2.1 Title Examination; Commitment for Title Insurance. No later than three (3) business days after the Effective Date, Purchaser shall order from the Title Company a title commitment (the "Title Commitment") covering the Property along with copies of all documents and title exceptions referenced therein.
2.2 Survey. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a copy of a survey of the Land (the "Existing Survey") dated August 20, 2013, prepared by Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, Professional Land Surveyor, as part of Seller's Deliveries pursuant to Section 3.l (e).

For purposes of the Deed to be delivered to Purchaser at the Closing, the legal description of the Property shall be the legal description attached hereto as Schedule 1.l(a), less and except any right-of-way or other conveyances previously made by Seller. If, however, the metes and bounds description drawn from the Updated Survey reflects a legal description different from the legal description attached hereto as Schedule 1.1(a), Seller shall also deliver a quit claim deed, at Closing, containing the legal description drawn from the Updated Survey.
2.3 Title Objections; Cure of Title Objections.
(a) Purchaser or its attorneys shall have until the Inspection Date (the "Title Objection Deadline") to notify Seller, in writing ("Objection Letter"), of such objections as Purchaser may have to the Title Commitment (including the title exception documents referred to therein) or the Updated Survey (collectively, "Title Objections"); provided that Acceptable Encumbrances will not be asserted as or constitute Title Objections. "Acceptable Encumbrances" means those encumbrances described in the Title Commitment that Purchaser will not have the right to object to, which are limited to (i) ad valorem and other real property taxes and assessments for the year of the Closing, not yet due and payable, which will be prorated as provided for herein, (ii) Monetary Liens (defined below) that Seller will satisfy from the proceeds of the sale at Closing and have discharged of record, (iii) standard printed conditions and exclusions contained in owner's title insurance policies (iv) the rights of tenants, as tenants only, without any right to acquire any portion of the Property, under the Leases described in the Rent Roll and any new Leases entered into between the Effective Date and Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (v) any matters which are approved in writing by Purchaser or approved by Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. Acceptable Encumbrances and any item contained in the Title Commitment or shown on the Updated Survey which is not described in the Objection Letter and delivered to Seller on or before the Title Objection Deadline conclusively will be deemed a "Permitted Exception."
(b) In the event Purchaser shall deliver to Seller an Objection Letter on or before the Title Objection Deadline, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure any Title Objections. On or before the tenth (10th) business day following Seller's receipt of the Objection Letter ("Response Period"), Seller or its attorneys shall notify Purchaser in writing ("Response Notice") whether Seller shall cure any valid Title Objections (and Seller's failure to provide a Response Notice on or before the end of the Response Period shall be deemed an election by Seller not to cure the Title Objection).If Seller elects to cure, and provided that Purchaser shall not have terminated this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof, then Seller shall remove, satisfy or cure the same. If Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure any valid Title Objections specified in Purchaser's Objection Letter, then in either such case Purchaser shall have the right to elect one, but not both, of the following options, which election must in each case be made within the time period provided in paragraph (c) below:
4 |
(i) to accept a conveyance of the Property subject to the Permitted Exceptions, specifically including any Title Objection which Seller has not elected (or has been deemed to have not elected) to cure, and without reduction of the Purchase Price, in which event those Title Objections shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions; or
(ii) to terminate this Agreement by sending written notice thereof to Seller, and upon delivery of such notice of termination, this Agreement shall terminate and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser in accordance with Section 1.6 of this Agreement, and thereafter neither party hereto shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except to the extent that any right, obligation or liability set forth herein expressly survives termination of this Agreement.
(c) If Seller notifies Purchaser that Seller does not intend to attempt to cure a Title Objection, or if Seller is deemed to have elected not to cure a Title Objection, then in any such case Purchaser shall, within five (5) business days after the expiration of the Response Period ("Election Period), notify Seller in writing ("Election Notice") whether Purchaser elects to accept conveyance of the Property under clause (b)(l) above or to terminate this Agreement under clause (b)(2) above. Purchaser's failure to deliver the Election Notice within the Election Period conclusively will be deemed an election by Purchaser to accept conveyance of the Property under clause (b)(l ) above).
(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, regardless of whether Purchaser objects to the same, Seller shall be obligated at Closing to discharge (a) all mortgages, and (b) all mechanics' liens, judgment liens, tax liens, assessment liens or other liens affecting the Property, in each case which can be satisfied by payment of a sum certain (collectively, "Monetary Liens"). The term "mortgage" as used herein includes any mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt and similar security instrument encumbering the Property or any portion thereof; the terms "discharge" and "discharged" as used herein shall mean having the Monetary Lien satisfied and cancelled of record or, in the case of Monetary Liens which are not mortgages, bonded over.
(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Seller fails to take any actions to have a Monetary Lien satisfied and cancelled of record which Seller was obligated to take under Section 2.3(d) above, or fails to cure a Title Objection that Seller indicates it would cure pursuant to Section 2.3(b) above, the same shall constitute a default by Seller hereunder, and the default provisions of Article 6 shall apply.
5 |
2.4 Conveyance of Title. At Closing, Seller shall convey and transfer the Real Property to Purchaser by special warranty deed subject to all Permitted Exceptions. It shall be a condition to Purchaser's obligation to close this transaction that title to the Real Property conveyed and transferred to Purchaser shall be such title to the Real Property as will enable the Title Company to issue to Purchaser an extended coverage American Land Title Association (ALTA) Form 2006 Owner's Policy of Title Insurance (the "Title Policy") covering the Real Property, in the full amount of the Purchase Price, subject to all Permitted Exceptions.
2.5 Pre-Closing "Gap" Title/Survey Defects. Whether or not Purchaser shall have furnished to Seller any Objection Letter pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Agreement, Purchaser may, at or prior to Closing, notify Seller in writing of any objections to title or survey matters having a material effect on the operation or value of the Property, as reasonably determined by Purchaser, and first appearing of record (as to title matters) or first arising (as to survey matters) between (a) the effective date of the Title Commitment or the last date of field work for the Survey and (b) the Closing Date (each a "New Matter"); provided, however, that Purchaser must identify any New Matter as a Title Objection by delivering to Seller an Objection Letter within ten (10) business days after Purchaser's first receipt of the updated Title Commitment, updated survey or other document, whichever first provides notice of the New Matter. Any New Matter which is not identified as a Title Objection by delivery of an Objection Letter by Purchaser to Seller within this ten (10) business day period conclusively will be deemed to be a Permitted Exception for all purposes under this Agreement. If Purchaser timely delivers an Objection Letter to Seller with respect to any New Matter, then, except for objections arising or resulting from Seller's breach of the covenant contained in Section 2.6 hereof, the same elections, procedures and time periods as set forth in Section 2.3 with respect to Title Objections (including, without limitation, the Response Period, the Election Period, the Cure Period and Purchaser's right to terminate this Agreement or waive the Title Objections with respect to any New Matter) also will apply to any Title Objections timely made with respect to any New Matter.
2.6 Seller's Covenant Not to Encumber. Seller agrees that, between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller will not sell, assign, rent, convey (absolutely or as security), grant a security interest in, or otherwise encumber or dispose of, or enter into any agreements that contemplate any of the aforementioned, the Property (or any part thereof or estate therein) in any manner that will survive Closing, except as approved in writing by Purchaser or as expressly provided for in or contemplated by this Agreement.
ARTICLE 3

6 |
(b) Purchaser and its agents, representatives, contractors and consultants (collectively the "Purchaser Parties") shall have the right to enter upon the Property during regular business hours for the purpose of conducting such Inspections as Purchaser may reasonably require; provided that (i) all Inspections will be scheduled in advance with Seller with at least forty-eight (48) hours prior telephonic notice to Seller via Xxxx X. Xxxxx (Phone: 000-000-0000) and (ii) at Seller's option, representatives of Seller will accompany the Purchaser Parties during any Inspections. Subject to any tenant's rights under the tenant's Lease, on request by Purchaser, Seller will arrange for entry to any occupied apartment unit by a Purchaser Party to conduct an Inspection of that occupied apartment unit not more than once prior to Closing, unless such Inspection reveals any defect or other matter requiring repair, in which event Purchaser shall have the right to re-inspect such unit to confirm that such matters have been addressed, to the extent the parties have agreed to address the defect or repair or to the extent Seller otherwise has an obligation to address the defect or repair pursuant to this Agreement. Under no circumstances will Purchaser's right of entry to the Property be interpreted as delivery of possession of the Property prior to Closing. During any Inspections, Purchaser will not cause any damage or make any physical changes to the Property. Any and all Inspections shall be done at Purchaser's sole cost and expense. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to the limitations in this Section 3.1, Purchaser shall have the right to cause its engineering consultant to perform environmental assessments upon the Property and a property condition and engineering investigation of the Property. Purchaser shall restore, or cause to be restored, the Property to the condition as existed immediately prior to any such Inspections.
(c) Purchaser shall maintain at all times prior to Closing, comprehensive general liability insurance with limits of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) combined single limit, bodily injury, death and property damage insurance per occurrence, to cover risks of the type described in this Section 3.1. In conjunction with signing this Agreement, Purchaser will deliver to Seller (x) an XXXXX 25 certificate of insurance providing evidence that this insurance is in force and naming Seller as the certificate holder and (y) an endorsement to this insurance policy naming Seller as an additional insured.
7 |
(d) Purchaser shall defend (using attorneys reasonably acceptable to Seller), indemnify and hold harmless Seller, Armada Xxxxxxx Properties, Inc., Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, L.P. and their respective past, present, and future officers, directors, members, managers, partners, agents, representatives, affiliates, successors, and assigns and their respective heirs, successors and assigns (collectively, "Seller Group") from and against any and all claims, demands, fines, suits, causes of action, proceedings, orders, decrees, judgments, liabilities, losses, costs, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and court costs incurred in defending any such claim or in enforcing this indemnity) of whatsoever nature and by or in favor of anyone whomsoever (for purposes of this Section 3.1, individually a "Claim" and collectively, "Claims") to the extent actually incurred by Seller and caused by, arising from, resulting from, or occasioned in whole or in part by any acts or omissions of any Purchaser Party, the Construction Consultant (defined below) or their agents, contractors, employees, representatives or invitees in connection with any Inspection or exercising any rights granted to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 3.1 or any other provision of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have no liability for pre-existing conditions upon the Real Property or for Claims which arise from the negligent or willful actions of Seller or persons acting on behalf or at the request of Seller. This Section 3.1(d) shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement.
(e) Seller shall deliver to Purchaser the information and documents listed on Schedule 3.l(e) attached hereto ("Seller's Deliveries") as soon as practicably possible following the Effective date, but in no event later than the date which is five (5) business days following the Effective Date.
(f) Purchaser will restore the Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to Purchaser's entry pursuant to this Section 3.1 promptly after any Inspection. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Purchaser will not perform or allow any of its agents, servants, employees, contractors or representatives to perform a Phase II environmental audit and inspection of the Property or any other form of invasive property testing without Seller's prior written consent, which may be withheld in Seller's sole and absolute discretion. Purchaser will pay for all Inspections and other due diligence surveys or reports promptly after receipt of any invoices. Purchaser will not suffer or permit the filing of any liens against the Property. If any liens are filed as a result of Purchaser's activities pursuant to this Section 3.1, Purchaser will promptly cause them to be released or otherwise eliminated from being a lien on the Property at Purchaser's sole cost. In the event the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is not closed or this Agreement is terminated for any reason whatsoever, Purchaser will remain obligated with respect to the indemnities and other obligations contained in Section 3.1.
3.2 Right of Termination. Seller agrees that in the event Purchaser determines, in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion, that it does not wish to acquire the Property for any reason or no reason, then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of such termination to Seller on or before 6:00 p.m. on the date which is sixty (60) days following the later to occur of (a) the Effective Date, or (b) the date upon which Seller has delivered the Seller's Deliveries to Purchaser (the "Inspection Date"). For purposes of establishing the Inspection Date, Purchaser will acknowledge in writing to Seller receipt of Seller's Deliveries and the Inspection Date. Upon any such termination of this Agreement pursuant to Purchaser's rights under this Section 3.2 the Initial Xxxxxxx Money shall be promptly returned to Purchaser in accordance with Section 1.6 hereof, and Purchaser and Seller shall have no further rights and obligations hereunder except those indemnities and rights which expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser fails to give Seller written notice of termination on or before the Inspection Date, then Purchaser (i) shall no longer have the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 3.2 and (ii) subject to Purchaser's tight to terminate this Agreement due to any Purchaser Permitted Termination Event other than pursuant to Section 3.2, shall be bound to proceed to Closing and consummate the transaction contemplated hereby pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the Inspection Date is sometimes referred to herein as the "Inspection Period."
8 |
3.3 Condition of the Property.

4.4 Credits and Prorations.
(a) All income and expenses in connection with the operation of the Property shall be apportioned, as of 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Daylight time) on the day prior to the Closing Date, as if Purchaser were vested with title to the Property during the entire Closing Date, such that, except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall have the benefit of income and the burden of expenses for the day preceding the Closing Date and the Purchaser shall have the benefit of income and the burden of expenses for the Closing Date and thereafter. Items (1)-(5) below will be prorated at Closing utilizing the information known at that time. A post-closing "true up" shall take place within a reasonable time after the Closing Date to adjust the proration of said items (not to exceed six (6) months from the Closing Date [except for ad valorem taxes and assessments, which shall be adjusted within one (1) month after receipt of the final bills therefor, if later]) if necessary. Such prorated items shall include, without limitation, the following:
i. rents, if any, based on the amount actually collected for the current month. The term "rents" as used in this Agreement includes all payments due and payable by, or received from, tenants under the Leases other than security deposits (which security deposits shall be treated as set forth in Section 4.4(b)(l ));
ii. ad valorem taxes and assessments levied against the Property (including personal property taxes on the Tangible Personal Property), which shall be prorated as set forth in Section 4.4(b)(2) hereof;
14 |
iii. payments or amounts due under the Designated Service Contracts;
iv | gas, electricity, water and other utility charges for which Seller is liable, if any, such charges to be apportioned at Closing on the basis of the most recent meter reading occurring prior to Closing or the most recent utility xxxx received by Seller, as applicable, including, without limitation, water charges not yet due and payable to such utility provider at Closing, but which amounts are customarily billed directly to Seller and reimbursed by tenants; and |
v. any other operating expenses or other items pertaining to the Property which are customarily prorated between a purchaser and a seller in comparable commercial transactions in the area in which the Property is located.
(b) Notwithstanding anything contained in the foregoing provisions:
i. At Closing, (A) Seller shall credit to Purchaser the amount of all security deposits, and (B) Purchaser shall credit to the account of Seller all refundable cash or other deposits posted with utility companies serving the Property, or, in lieu of such credit, at either party's option, Purchaser shall contract directly with the utility companies and Seller shall be entitled to receive and retain such refundable cash and deposits; provided that Purchaser and Seller will cooperate so that utility service to the Property is not interrupted. For the purposes of this Section 4.4(b)(l) the term "security deposits" means any security deposits which were tendered by tenants under the Leases listed on the Rent Roll attached as Schedule 1.1(e), and which Seller has not applied as of the Effective Date in accordance with the applicable Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, following the expiration of the Inspection Period, Seller shall not be entitled to apply a security deposit due to a default by a Tenant which is less than thirty (30) days old.
ii. Any ad valorem taxes for the current year paid at or prior to Closing shall be prorated based upon the amounts actually paid for the current tax year.

Any such appo1iionment made with respect to a tax year for which the tax xxxx is not available shall be based upon the greater of (i) the prior year's tax xxxx for the Property; or (ii) the most recent county tax assessor's valuation of the Property applied to the most recently published property tax millage rate which is applicable to the Property. To the extent that the actual taxes and assessments for the current tax year differ from the amount apportioned at Closing, the parties shall make all necessary adjustments by appropriate payments between themselves following Closing promptly following the availability of the final tax bills. For the avoidance of doubt, special assessments which are certified or become a lien prior to Closing shall be credited to Purchaser at Closing.
15 |
iii. Gas, electricity, water and other utility charges referred to in Section 4.4(a)(4) above which are payable by any tenant directly to a third party shall not be apportioned hereunder, and Purchaser shall accept title subject to any of such charges which are unpaid and Purchaser shall look solely to the responsible tenant for the payment of the same.
iv. Seller shall pay in full all leasing commissions and locators' and finders' fees, if any, due to leasing or other agents for each Lease and Lease renewal entered into by Seller prior to the Closing Date promptly when due.
v. The Tangible Personal Property is included in this sale, without further charge.
vi. Unpaid and delinquent rent and reimbursements collected by Seller and Purchaser after the date of Closing shall be delivered as follows: (a) if Seller collects any unpaid or delinquent rent or reimbursements for the Property, Seller shall, within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof, deliver to Purchaser any such rent or reimbursement which Purchaser is entitled to hereunder relating to the date of Closing and any period thereafter, and (b) if within ninety (90) days after Closing Purchaser collects any unpaid or delinquent rent or reimbursement from the Property, Purchaser shall, within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof, deliver to Seller any such rent or reimbursement which Seller is entitled to hereunder relating to the period prior to the date of Closing. Seller and Purchaser agree that all rent and reimbursements received by Seller or Purchaser after the Closing shall be applied first to current rentals and reimbursements and then to delinquent rentals and reimbursements, if any, in inverse order of maturity (i.e. any such collected rent shall be allocated to the most recent delinquent period first), and that any rent or reimbursements received by Purchaser more than ninety (90) days after Closing shall belong to Purchaser. Purchaser will make a good faith effort after Closing to collect all rents and reimbursements in the usual course of Purchaser's operation of the Property, but Purchaser will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect delinquent rents or reimbursements, nor shall Seller have any right to bring an action against or otherwise attempt to collect any delinquent amounts from existing tenants of the Property.
16 |
vii. With respect to any Contracts which Purchaser assumes at Closing, Purchaser shall also receive a proration credit as to the unamortized portion of any signing bonus or similar payments received by Seller before Closing.

Upon receipt of any written certification from Seller or Purchaser claiming the Xxxxxxx Money pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall promptly forward a copy thereof to the other such party (i.e., Purchaser or Seller, whichever did not claim the Xxxxxxx Money pursuant to such notice) and, unless such other party within ten (10) days thereafter notifies Escrow Agent of any objection to such requested disbursement of the Xxxxxxx Money in which case Escrow Agent shall retain the Xxxxxxx Money subject to Section 10.5 below, Escrow Agent shall disburse the Xxxxxxx Money to the party demanding the same and shall thereupon be released and discharged from any further duty or obligation hereunder.

Further, Seller and Purchaser do not and will not hold Escrow Agent liable for any loss occurring which arises from bank failure or error, insolvency or suspension, or a situation or event which falls under the FDIC coverages.
10.4 Stakeholder. Escrow Agent is acting as a stakeholder only with respect to the Xxxxxxx Money. If there is any dispute as to whether Escrow Agent is obligated to deliver the Xxxxxxx Money or as to whom the Xxxxxxx Money is to be delivered, Escrow Agent may refuse to make any delivery and may continue to hold the Xxxxxxx Money until receipt by Escrow Agent of an authorization in writing, signed by Seller and Purchaser, directing the disposition of the Xxxxxxx Money, or, in the absence of such written authorization, until final determination of the rights of the parties in an appropriate judicial proceeding. If such written authorization is not given, or a proceeding for such determination is not begun, within thirty (30) days of notice to Escrow Agent of such dispute, Escrow Agent may bring an appropriate action or proceeding for leave to deposit the Xxxxxxx Money in a court of competent jurisdiction located in the Durham, North Carolina metropolitan area pending such determination.

11.19 Reserved.
11.20 Construction Matters. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that the following representations, warranties and covenants of Seller (collectively the "Construction Obligations") constitute a material inducement of Purchaser's willingness to enter into the transaction contemplated herein, and Purchaser's furnished consideration is in exchange for, in part, the receipt of the following: Seller shall cause all amounts due in connection with the Construction Contracts (as hereinafter defined) to be paid in full on or prior to Closing, and shall provide final lien waivers from all vendors and contractors who are parties to the Construction Contracts at Closing (with exception only for those certain contractors performing work in connection with any Punchlist Items to be completed following Closing, in which event, final lien waivers shall be obtained on or prior to Closing for all completed work, and for such work that remains incomplete in connection with Punchlist Items, Seller shall obtain final lien waivers upon payment of such contractors from the Escrowed Funds pursuant to the Punchlist Escrow Agreement (which shall be an obligation that survives Closing).
(b) Construction-Related Deliveries. In addition to and not in limitation of the items to be delivered to Purchaser in accordance with Section 3.l (e), Seller shall deliver true, correct and complete copies of the items attached as Schedule l 1.20(b) attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof.
38 |
(c) Assignments. At Closing, Seller shall transfer, convey and assign, or cause its affiliate Armada Xxxxxxx Development Company, to transfer, convey and assign, to Purchaser, to the extent expressly permitted under such documents without the consent of any party to the document other than Seller or Armada Xxxxxxx Development Company, or if a third party consent is required, to the extent Seller has obtained such consent, all of Seller's rights, interests and remedies in and to (i) that certain DBIA Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Design-Builder - Cost Plus Fee with an Option for a Guaranteed Maximum Price between Seller, as Owner, and AHP Construction, LLC as Contractor ("Contractor") dated as of July 19, 2013, together with that certain DBIA Standard Form of General Conditions of Contract Between Owner and Design-Builder, as modified or clarified, which is a part thereof (collectively the "GMAX"), and (ii) that certain agreement dated February 3, 2012, between Armada Xxxxxxx Development Company, and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Thames, P.A., respecting the provision of professional engineering services in connection with the construction of the Improvements at the Property (the "Engineer's Contract"). For purposes of clarification, there is no separate architect agreement as the GMAX constitutes a design/build agreement. The GMAX and the Engineer's Contract are hereinafter referred to as the ("Construction Contracts"). If any Construction Contract requires the consent of a third party as a condition to any assignment thereof, then prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Seller shall use reasonable efforts (and, to the extent such party is an affiliate of Seller, best efforts) to obtain and deliver to Purchaser the written consent of the Contractor to the assignment to Purchaser of the GMAX and the written consent of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Thames, P.A. to the assignment to Purchaser of the Engineer's Contract; provided that Seller will have no liability to Purchaser if the Engineer refuses to consent to the assignment. The form of consent shall be substantially identical to the document set forth in Schedule l 1.20(c). To the extent a party's consent to the assignment of a Construction Contract is required, and to the extent a party is not willing to provide its consent to the full assignment of the Construction Contract, but rather an assignment of the warranty rights thereunder, then Seller and Purchaser agree that the terms of this Section 11.20 and the documents attached as Schedules 4.2(b) and ll.20(c) shall be modified to reflect the assignment of warranty rights, rather than the full assignment of the Construction Contract.
11.21 Confidentiality. Each party is aware, and will advise its Representatives who are informed of the matters that are the subject of this Agreement, of the restrictions imposed by the United States securities laws and other applicable laws on the purchase or sale of securities by any person who has received material, non-public information and on the communication of such information to any other person when it is reasonably foreseeable that such other person is likely to purchase or sell such securities in reliance on such information.
Seller is an affiliate of Armada Xxxxxxx Properties, Inc. ("AHP"). AHP is a publicly traded real estate investment trust. The fact that Purchaser has entered into this Agreement may be material, non-public insider information subject to restrictions imposed by the United States securities laws and other applicable laws on the purchase and sale of the securities of AHP. Purchaser will keep confidential the existence of this Agreement and all matters related to it, and, except with the prior written consent of AHP, will not disclose the existence of this Agreement to any person other than to its Representatives who have a need to know, and will not use or allow any Purchaser Representatives to use the existence of this Agreement for any of the following purposes: (x) the trading in any securities of AHP, (y) the trading in any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for securities of AHP, or (z) any derivative with respect to securities of AHP, whether any such transaction described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) above is to be settled by delivery of securities, in cash or otherwise, until this Agreement has been publicly disclosed by AHP through a press release or by a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Neither Purchaser nor any of its Representatives will knowingly disclose to any of Seller's tenants, employees, leasing agents, brokers or other representatives the existence of or any other information concerning this Agreement. Purchaser shall instruct each of its Representatives having access to any of Seller's tenants, employees, leasing agents, brokers or other representatives of the requirements of this covenant. Each party will be responsible for any actions or omissions by its Representatives which are not in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.21.
39 |
As used in this Agreement, "Representatives" of a person means the person's directors, officers, members, managers, partners, employees, agents, affiliates, business units and divisions, financial advisors, accountants, current or prospective lenders or investors, consultants, attorneys, real estate brokers (it being agreed and acknowledged, for the avoidance of doubt, that Purchaser may engage one or more real estate brokers for the purposes of obtaining brokers' opinions of value on the Project) or agents and other representatives.
11.22 Tax-Deferred Exchange. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that either party may wish to structure this transaction as a tax-deferred exchange of like-kind property within the meaning of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. Each party agrees to reasonably cooperate with the other party to effect this exchange; provided, that (a) the cooperating party shall not be required to acquire or take title to any exchange property, (b) the cooperating party shall not be required to incur any expense or liability whatsoever in connection with the exchange, including, without limitation, any obligation for the payment of any escrow, title, brokerage or other costs including attorneys' fees incurred with respect to the exchange, (c) no substitution of the effectuating party shall release it from any of its obligations, warranties or representations set forth in this Agreement or from liability for any prior or subsequent default under this Agreement by the effectuating party, its successors, or assigns, which obligations shall continue as the obligations of a principal and not of a surety or guarantor, (d) the effectuating party shall give the cooperating party at least two (2) business days prior notice of the proposed changes required to effect such exchange and the identity of any party to be substituted in the escrow, (e) the effectuating party shall be responsible for preparing all additional agreements, documents and escrow instructions (collectively, "Exchange Documents") required by the exchange, at its sole cost and expense, (f) the effectuating party shall be responsible for making all determinations as to the legal sufficiency, tax considerations and other considerations relating to the proposed exchange, the Exchange Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, and the cooperating party shall in no event be responsible for, or in any way be deemed to warrant or represent any tax or other consequences of the exchange transaction, and (g) the election to effect such an exchange shall not delay the Closing of the transaction as defined herein.

Simultaneously with the delivery of any such request to Escrow Agent, Purchaser shall deliver a copy of the request (including Purchaser's Certificate and other documentation) to Seller.
(ii) Within five (5) days following receipt of such request, Escrow Agent shall release the applicable portion of the Punchlist Holdback, as described in such request, to Purchaser. Purchaser may use the released funds only for payment of or reimbursement for the work referred to in (b) (i) above.
(d) Upon completion of all Punchlist Work and payment of all costs incurred in connection therewith, Escrow Agent shall release the balance of the Punchlist Holdback to Seller.
The Architect's determination with respect to completion of Punchlist Items shall be binding on the Parties. Escrow Agent will not be liable under this Agreement for any funds it disburses to Seller or Purchaser. In the event that, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, Seller or Purchaser is entitled to receive a payment or disbursement of any portion of the Punchlist Holdback, Seller and Purchaser each agree to execute and deliver to Escrow Agent such authorizations and instructions as may be required to direct Escrow Agent to release the applicable portion of the Punchlist Holdback as provided as provided herein.

Seller and Purchaser hereby certify that they are aware the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") coverages apply only to a maximum amount of One Hundred Thousand and No/I 00 Dollars ($100,000.00) for each individual depositor. Seller and Purchaser understand that Escrow Agent assumes no responsibility for, nor will Seller and Purchaser hold same liable for, any loss occurring which arises from the fact that the amount of the above account may cause the aggregate amount of any individual depositor's account to exceed One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) and that the excess amount is not insured by the FDIC.
8. Escrow Agent shall be protected in acting upon any notice, request, waiver, consent, receipt or other paper or document believed by Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be signed by the proper party or parties.
9. Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel in the event of any dispute of questions as to the construction of the foregoing instructions, or Escrow Agent's duties hereunder, and Escrow Agent shall incur no liability and shall be fully protected in acting in accordance with the opinion and instructions of such counsel.

Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any damage, liability, or loss arising out of or in connection with the services rendered by Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement, except for any damage, liability, or loss resulting from the willful misconduct, negligence or breach of this Agreement by Escrow Agent or any of its officers or employees. Seller and Purchaser hereby release and discharge Escrow Agent from all matters with respect to the subject matter hereof (except for the willful misconduct, negligence or breach of this Agreement by Escrow Agent or any of its officers or employees) and agree to indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and against all costs, damages, judgments, attorney's fees, expenses, obligations, and liabilities of any kind or nature, which in good faith, Escrow Agent may incur or sustain in connection with this Agreement (except for the willful misconduct, negligent conduct or breach of this Agreement by Escrow Agent or any of its officers or employees).

11.
