4
(b) Credit for Existing

Agreement, Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing Statement
(the “Lexington Mortgage”) made by Lexington
Owner, with joinder by Lexington Operator, to and in favor of General Electric
Credit Corporation, Agent for itself and one or more lenders (“Lender”) dated as of January
10, 2006, and recorded in Book 10751, Page 107 of the Recorder of Deeds of
Lexington County, South Carolina and (ii) as to the Greenville Property, that
certain Mortgage, Security Agreement, Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement
and Fixture Filing Statement (the “Greenville Mortgage”) made by
Greenville Owner, with joinder by Greenville Operator, to and in favor of Lender
dated as of January 10, 2006, and recorded in Book 4498, Page 828 of the
Recorder of Deeds of Greenville County, South Carolina and all other documents
executed in connection therewith (that certain Promissory Note dated January 10,
2006, from Lexington Owner and Greenville Owner to and in favor of Lender in the
original principal amount of $13,500,000 (the “Note”) and such other
documents, including, but not limited to those documents identified on Schedule
3(b) attached hereto, as the same may have been amended and/or assigned,
are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents,” and the loan
evidenced thereby being hereinafter referred to as the “Loan”). Seller
represents to Purchaser, to survive Closing, that it has delivered to Purchaser
full and complete copies of the Loan Documents. Purchaser acknowledges that it
has received copies of the Loan Documents from Seller prior to the Effective
Date. If Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement prior to the
expiration of the Study Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have acknowledged
that to its then actual knowledge, it is not aware of any requirement or
condition that it will be unable to meet in order to qualify and be approved by
Lender. As of January 15, 2010, the principal amount of the
indebtedness due under the Loan was approximately $12,964,000. At the
Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price for (i)
eighty percent (80%) of the amount of the indebtedness due and outstanding under
the Loan (including all principal, interest, fees, costs and other outstanding
amounts) as of the Closing Date (as defined in Section 9) (but not including
any advances or future advances thereunder, if any). Further, at Closing,
Purchaser shall pay to Seller in addition to the Purchase Price an amount equal
to eighty percent (80%) of all existing cash loan reserves held by Lender (or
its designee) under the Loan Documents. The parties acknowledge and agree that
in the event that the Lender shall agree to advance any proceeds at, immediately
prior to, or immediately after, Closing in excess of the outstanding
indebtedness under the Note (as existing as of the date hereof), such proceeds
shall immediately be distributed eighty percent (80%) to Purchaser and twenty
percent (20%) to Seller.
(c) Balance of Purchase
Price. Except
as adjusted herein to account for the Deposit and subject to Sections 3 and 11, Purchaser at Closing shall
tender the Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available
funds. At and upon Closing, the Deposit shall be credited against the
Purchase Price and released by Escrow Agent in the manner directed by Seller in
writing prior to the Closing; provided, however, if Seller fails to provide such
written direction prior to Closing, Escrow Agent shall retain the Purchase Price
on Seller’s behalf and shall hold such funds in escrow until directed by Seller
in writing as to the distribution of such funds. The funds due Seller
at Closing shall be received in its account by 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time)
on the Closing Date (as defined below).
5
(d) Existing
Loan.
(i) At
Closing, Purchaser agrees to acquire the Subject Interests subject to the Loan
and the Loan Documents. In this regard, the purchase and sale
contemplated hereunder requires the approval of Lender. In connection
with such approval, Purchaser agrees to (a) notify Seller in writing within five
(5) business days after the Effective Date of the name of the entities or
persons to assume the obligations of Gazit Senior Care, Inc., a Florida
corporation and ROICO Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
(collectively, the “Existing
Principals”) arising from and after Closing under that certain Agreement
of Principals dated January 10, 2006 to and in favor of Lender (the “Agreement of Principals”),
with such assumption as between Seller and Purchaser (and expressly not Lender)
to be subject to a Recourse Contribution Agreement (as defined herein) between
Seller and Purchaser, (b) submit a transfer/assumption application (the “Application”) which appears
complete on its face to Lender or its servicer, together with all applicable
application fees (provided however, if that the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement closes, all such fees and costs shall be paid eighty percent (80%) by
Purchaser and twenty percent (20%) by Seller), within two (2) business days
after the Effective Date, and provide Seller with written notice of submission
of such Application and evidence of submission of the Application and
application fees simultaneously with delivery of the same to Lender or its
servicer, (c) promptly furnish to Lender or its servicing agent and Seller such
other information, financial or otherwise, as may be reasonably requested by
Lender or its servicing agent or counsel following Purchaser’s initial
submission of the Application, (d) proceed with diligence and use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain Lender’s approval of Purchaser’s acquisition of the
Subject Interests at the earliest possible date, (e) keep Seller timely apprised
of the status thereof, and (f) provide Seller with copies of all correspondence
between Lender and Purchaser relating to the Application, provided, however,
that Purchaser may redact any financial or proprietary information contained
therein.
(ii) Purchaser
shall timely pay any and all fees and costs required by Lender in connection
with the Application and purchase of the Subject Interests, including, without
limitation, any application fees, any assumption fees, attorneys’ fees and costs
of Lender’s counsel, and any fees or costs associated with Lender’s counsel, and
any fees and costs associated with Lender’s title insurance coverage, if any;
provided however, that if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement closes,
all such fees and cost shall be paid eighty percent (80%) by Purchaser and
twenty percent (20%) by Seller. The Purchaser shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to include, with the Application or as a part thereof, an additional
application, request or such other documentation as Lender may require, for a
commitment or proposal from Lender to advance at Closing, under terms and
conditions that are acceptable to Purchaser and Seller, funds in excess of the
outstanding amount under the Loan (the “Additional Loan Advance”),
such Additional Loan Advance to be secured as a future advance under the
Greenville Mortgage and Lexington Mortgage, or by second priority mortgages and
security agreements upon the Greenville Facility and Lexington Facility. The
Purchaser shall timely pay any and all fees and costs required by Lender in
connection with the application or request for the Additional Loan Advance,
including, without limitation, any application fees, and origination fees,
break-up fees, attorneys’ fees and costs of Lender’s counsel, and any fees or
costs associated with Lender’s counsel, and any fees and costs associated with
Lender’s title insurance coverage, if any; provided however, that if the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement closes, all such fees and cost shall
be paid eighty percent (80%) by Purchaser and twenty percent (20%) by
Seller.
6
(iii) If
(a) Lender does not approve of Purchaser’s purchase of the Subject Interests on
or before thirty (30) days after the Effective Date (the “Lender Approval Period”), as the same may be
extended, (b) the terms and conditions under which Lender will approve
Purchaser’s acquisition are materially and adversely different from a term sheet
that is anticipated to be provided by Lender, negotiated with Lender and as
between Purchaser and Seller, acceptable to Purchaser and Seller (such
acceptance to be evidenced in writing, including via email) during the Study
Period (as such Term Sheet may be thereafter amended with the written consent
(including consent via email) of Purchaser and Seller, the “Term Sheet”) and Purchaser is
unwilling to accept such different terms, or (c) Lender does not approve the
party proposed by Purchaser with respect to the Agreement of Principals under
Section 3 (d)(i), such matter(s) shall be deemed a failure
of condition under Section
9(d)(i) and Section 9(d)
(ii). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, if Lender does not approve of Purchaser’s purchase of the Subject
Interests as set forth herein on or before the scheduled expiration of the
Lender Approval Period, either Purchaser or Seller may extend the Lender
Approval Period by up to an additional thirty (30) days. Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that (w) if Purchaser requests an additional advance
from Lender and Lender grants such request, it is probable that the per annum
interest rate or so-called “spread” determining same under the provisions of the
Loan shall increase, (x) the Lender’s agreement that neither Gazit nor any other
Affiliates of Seller shall be obligated to be “Principals” under the Agreement
of Principals with respect to matters arising from and after Closing is
acceptable to Purchaser and is not a material and adverse modification of the
provisions of the Term Sheet, and (z) notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
the Lender agreeing to advance funds in addition to the outstanding amount due
under the Note as of the date hereof is not a condition to the obligation of
Purchaser to close this transaction.
(e) No Assumption of Pre-Closing
Liabilities. Purchaser shall not, and shall not be deemed to, assume any
liabilities which arose from any act or omission that occurred prior to
Closing.
(f) Recourse Contribution
Agreement. As Closing, Seller and the entities or persons
designed by Purchaser and approved by Lender to assume the obligations
subsequent to Closing under the Agreement of Principals shall enter into a
so-called Recourse Contribution Agreement (the “Recourse Contribution
Agreement”), which shall provide that any obligations or liabilities
under the Agreement of Principals which arose from any act or omission that
occurred prior to the Closing shall be borne one hundred percent (100%) by
Seller, and which arise from any act or omission that occurred from and after
Closing shall be borne eighty percent (80%) by Purchaser and twenty percent
(20%) by Seller. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in each instance as
used herein, in the Recourse Contribution Agreement or any other document or
instrument executed in connection with this transaction, the phrase “omission
that occurred” shall not, and shall not be deemed or construed to, include
within its purview, or pertain or apply to any state of facts with respect to,
or condition of, the Real Property that existed as of Closing (“State of Facts”), except if
and to the extent that Seller shall represent and warrant otherwise in Section
7(a) of this Agreement; provided however that the phrase “State of Facts”
excludes those which give rise to third party claims for negligence or
intentional acts.
7
4. Title.
(a) Condition of
Title. At
Closing, each Fee Owner shall own good and indefeasible fee simple title to its
respective parcel of Real Property, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances
except as provided herein, subject only to the Permitted
Exceptions. The “Permitted Exceptions” shall
consist only of the following:
(i) Non
delinquent real property taxes and all assessments and unpaid installments
thereof which are not delinquent.
(ii) The
Master Leases and all the Leases in effect as of the date hereof or any new
Leases entered into in accordance with Section 6(b), and the rights
of the tenants thereunder.
(iii) The
Mortgage and other Loan Documents.
(iv) All
exceptions (including printed exceptions) to title contained or disclosed in the
existing title policy covering the Real Property listed on Schedule
4(a)(iv) (the “Title
Policy”) or the Title Commitment (as defined in Section 4(b)) other than
applicable Title Objections (as defined in Section 4(b)) identified and
not thereafter waived by Purchaser.

A86-0038132 issued to the Fee Owners in the amount of $13,500,000 and having an
effective date of January 10, 2006. Within ten (10) days after the Effective

insurance for the Real Property from Lawyers Title Insurance Company (the “Title Company”), together, to
the extent available, with copies of the exceptions referenced therein (the
“Title
Commitment”). Purchaser acknowledges it has received from
Seller the most recent survey of the Real Property prepared by a licensed
surveyor (collectively, the “Existing Survey”). Seller
makes no warranties or representations as to the accuracy or completeness of the
Existing Survey or the qualifications of the surveyor who prepared the same, and
Purchaser shall have no right to rely upon any information contained in the
Existing Survey. Purchaser may obtain an updated survey of the Real

thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have no right
to object to any of the matters contained or disclosed in the Title Policy or
the Existing Survey and the same shall remain, at all times, Permitted
Exceptions and shall be deemed approved by Purchaser. If Purchaser
does not give such notice, such failure shall be conclusively deemed to be full
and complete approval of the Title Commitment and the Existing Survey, and any
matter disclosed therein. If Purchaser does give such notice, Seller
shall have three (3) days after receipt thereof to notify Purchaser in writing
that Seller (a) will cause or (b) elects not to cause any or all of the Title
Objections disclosed therein to be removed or insured over by the Title
Company. Seller’s failure to notify Purchaser within such three (3)
day period as to any Title Objection shall be deemed an election by Seller not
to remove or have the Title Company insure over such Title
Objection. If Seller notifies or is deemed to have notified Purchaser
that Seller shall not remove nor have the Title Company insure over any or all
of the Title Objections, Purchaser shall have until the latter of the end of the
Study Period or five (5) business days after receipt of such notice or deemed
notice to (i) terminate this Agreement or (ii) waive such Title Objections and

mechanic’s liens, materialmen’s liens, judgment liens and tax liens of any type,

reimbursement for those amounts, and Purchaser will cooperate with Seller in
those efforts. Purchaser will promptly remit to Seller any proceeds
or funds received by Purchaser in connection with any Seller Liens paid or
satisfied by Seller. The last three sentences of this Section 4(c), including this
sentence, shall survive Closing.

Authority. At
Closing, (i) Seller shall execute a title affidavit in the form of Exhibit
B, and (ii) Seller shall execute such instruments as are customarily and
reasonably required by the Title Company for compliance with tax reporting or

indirectly (unless acting in accordance with Buyer’s written consent) own,
manage, operate, finance or participate in the ownership, management, operation
or financing of, or permit its name to be used by or in connection with, any
competitive business or enterprise located within a five (5) mile radius of the
Real Property unless such competitive business or enterprise was part of a
portfolio of at least 10 properties acquired by Seller in a single transaction
at a single closing. For purposes of this Section
6(i), the term “competitive business or
enterprise” shall mean a community residential care
facility. This Section 6(i) shall

representation to be deemed to be modified thereby, unless Purchaser shall close
this transaction. As used in this Section, the phrase “to the extent

including consultation with the administrator of each Facility. Notwithstanding

other documents as are reasonably necessary to consummate the transaction
contemplated by this Agreement, each in a form reasonably approved by Seller and
Purchaser.
(c) Escrow
Closing. This
transaction will be closed through an escrow in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. Payment of the Purchase Price and
delivery of Seller’s Closing Documents and Purchaser’s Closing Documents will be
made through such escrow. The parties shall cooperate and use
reasonable efforts to effect Closing by delivery of documents and funds in a
manner that will not require personal attendance at Closing.
29
11. Prorations. Prior
to the Closing, Seller shall initially determine the amounts of the prorations
in accordance with this Agreement and notify Purchaser
thereof. Purchaser shall review and approve such determination
promptly and prior to the Closing.
(a) Certain Items
Prorated. The
following shall be prorated between the parties, as of 11:59 p.m. of the day
prior to the Closing so that Seller shall receive credit from Purchaser for
eighty percent (80%) of all expenditures made pertaining to the Real Property or
Facilities for periods on or after Closing, Purchaser shall receive credit from
Seller for eighty percent (80%) of all income received by Seller attributable to
periods on or after Closing, Seller shall receive one hundred percent of the
income attributable to periods prior to Closing and shall pay one hundred
percent of the expenses attributable to periods prior to Closing, all with
respect to: all income and expenses with respect to the Property and payable to
or by the owner of the Property, including, without limitation: (i)
all real property taxes and assessments on the basis of the fiscal period for
which assessed (if the Closing shall occur before the tax rate is fixed, the
apportionment of taxes shall be based on the tax rate for the preceding period
applied to the latest assessed valuation and after the Closing, when the actual
real property taxes are finally fixed, Seller and Purchaser shall make a
recalculation of such proration, and the appropriate party shall make the
applicable payment reflecting the recalculation to the other party);
(ii) rents and other tenant payments and tenant reimbursements
(collectively, “Tenant
Payments”) if any, received under the Leases, subject to Section 11(e);
(iii) charges for water, sewer, electricity, gas, fuel and other utility
charges, all of which shall be read promptly before Closing, unless Seller
elects to close its own applicable account, in which event Purchaser shall open
its own account and the respective charges shall not be prorated;
(iv) amounts prepaid and amounts accrued but unpaid on service contracts
and management contracts pertaining to the Real Property or Facilities; and
(v) periodic fees for licenses, permits or other authorizations with
respect to the Property. The obligation of the parties to recalculate
the proration of taxes shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12)
months.
(b) Leasing
Commissions. At
the Closing, Purchaser shall pay or reimburse Seller for eighty (80%) percent of
all leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs and allowances, and other
charges payable by reason of or in connection with any Lease set forth on Schedule 11(b) (in the amounts
set forth therein) and any Lease entered into after the Effective Date, any
renewal or extension of an existing Lease after such date, and any new lease
referred to in Section 6(b). The
applicable Operating Company shall be and remain responsible for any leasing
commissions, tenant improvement costs and allowances, tenant concessions and
other charges payable for any renewal, extension or other option under any
existing or future lease.
(c) Taxes.
(i)
Real property tax refunds and credits received after the Closing
which are attributable to a fiscal tax year prior to the Closing shall belong to
Seller. Any such refunds and credits attributable to the fiscal tax
year during which the Closing occurs shall be apportioned between Seller and
Purchaser after deducting the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of collection
thereof. This apportionment obligation shall survive the Closing for
a period of six (6) months.
30
(ii)
If any tax appeal or certiorari proceedings shall not have been finally resolved
or settled prior to the Closing and shall relate to any tax period a portion or
all of which precedes the Closing, Seller shall be entitled to control the
disposition of any such tax appeal or certiorari proceeding and any refunds
received therefrom, net of any expenses incurred by Seller in connection
therewith, shall be prorated between the parties on the basis of the portions
accruing to periods before and after the Closing.
(d) Security and Other
Deposits. At
the Closing, Seller shall cause the Operating Companies to notify Seller and
Purchaser of the amount of all unapplied refundable Security Deposits (plus
interest accrued thereon to the extent required to be paid by the applicable
Lease or applicable law) held by the Operating Companies under the Leases, but
such Security Deposits shall be and remain assets of the Operating Companies and
the obligations to return the same to the tenants in accordance with terms of
the applicable Leases and law, shall be and remain with the Operating
Companies.
(e) Adjustments. Delinquent
Tenant Payments, if any, shall not be prorated and all rights thereto shall be
retained by Seller, who reserves the right to collect and retain such delinquent
Tenant Payments. To the extent applicable, Purchaser agrees to cooperate with
Seller in causing the Operating Companies to use reasonable commercial efforts
to collect such delinquent Tenant Payments; provided, however, that Seller shall
not be entitled to commence any disposition or eviction
proceeding against the delinquent tenant. If at any time after the
Closing, the Operating Companies shall receive any such delinquent Tenant
Payments, Purchaser acknowledges and aggress that such delinquent Tenant
Payments shall be remitted to or as directed by Seller, provided that any monies
received after Closing from a delinquent tenant shall be applied first to
current rents then due and payable and then to delinquent rents in the inverse
order in which they became due and payable. If the Tenant Payments
required to be made by any tenants include escalation charges or reimbursements
for real property taxes, operating expenses or other charges (collectively,
“Additional Charges”), then any Additional
Charges due under the Leases for the calendar year 2010 shall be reconciled
within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of such calendar year, and
Purchaser and Seller agree to prorate and adjust such Additional Charges based
upon the Closing Date, with Purchaser being reimbursed by Seller for any
over-collection of Additional Charges during Seller’s prior period of ownership
and applicable to calendar year 2010, and Purchaser reimbursing Seller for any
under-collection of Additional Charges by Seller during Seller’s period of
ownership and applicable to calendar year 2010. The provisions of
this Section 11(e) shall
survive the Closing for a period of six (6) months after the conclusion of
calendar year 2010.
(f) Insurance. The
parties shall use reasonable commercial efforts to retain the existing liability
and property insurance affecting the Property in force subsequent to Closing
until the expiration of the applicable current policy period and the costs of
same shall be prorated at Closing (with all insurances expenses attributable to
periods after Closing to be borne 80% by Purchaser and 20% by Seller.) If and to
the extent that the parties are not able to cause such insurance to remain in
effect, Seller’s existing liability and property insurance pertaining to the
Property shall be canceled as of the Closing, and Seller shall receive any
premium refund due thereon. Seller has advised Purchaser that the
some or all of the applicable insurance is carried under policies that cover
other properties in addition to the Real Property or Facilities, as applicable
and may not be transferable after Closing.
31
(g) Purchaser’s Closing
Costs. Purchaser
shall pay (i) the cost of the title search, Title Commitment, the title premium
for the title policy and the cost of any other title insurance endorsements
ordered by Purchaser or required by Lender, (ii) the cost of any New Survey,
(iii) any costs incurred in recording any documents contemplated herein, (iv)
any costs incurred in connection with Purchaser’s investigation of the Property
pursuant to Section 5,
including the cost of any new environmental assessment commissioned by
Purchaser, (v) all fees charged by the Title Company to conduct Closing, or
otherwise related to this transaction, (vi) Purchaser’s own attorneys’ fees and
(vii) cost to pursue the licensure change, if applicable; provided however, that
if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement closes, all such fees and cost
shall be paid eighty percent (80%) by Purchaser and twenty percent (20%) by
Seller.
(h) Seller’s Closing
Costs. Seller
shall pay Seller’s own attorneys’ fees provided however, if that the transaction
contemplated by this Agreement closes, all such fees and cost shall be paid
eighty percent (80%) by Purchaser and twenty percent (20%) by
Seller.
(i) Pre-Closing
Accounting. Not
less than five (5) business days prior to the Closing, Seller shall prepare and
deliver to Purchaser an unaudited statement for the Property (the “Preliminary Proration
Statement”) showing apportionments for the items set forth in subsections 11(a) through
11(g), calculated as of
11:59 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the day preceding the Closing Date, on the
basis of the actual days in a particular month and a 365-day calendar
year. Seller shall provide, or make available to Purchaser, Seller’s
work papers pertaining to the Preliminary Proration Statement and such records
as may be reasonably required to confirm the accuracy of the Preliminary
Proration Statement. Seller and Purchaser shall agree upon any
adjustments to be made to the Preliminary Proration Statement prior to the
Closing, and at the Closing, Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall receive a
credit equal to the net amount due Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, pursuant
to the Preliminary Proration Statement as finally agreed upon by Seller and
Purchaser (as so approved by Seller and Purchaser, the “Settlement
Statement”). If Seller and Purchaser do not collectively agree
upon the proposed adjustments to be made to the Preliminary Proration Statement
prior to the Closing, then such Preliminary Proration Statement shall be
submitted to a certified public accounting firm selected by Purchaser to resolve
such adjustments and such accounting firm shall prepare the Settlement Statement
that will be binding upon and deemed approved by Seller and
Purchaser. The Closing shall be adjourned not more than ten (10) days
for such accounting firm to resolve such adjustments.
(j) Deposits, Escrows and
Reserves. Prior
to Closing, Seller shall cause the Companies, to the extent within Seller’s
control, to distribute to Seller, all bank deposits (and expressly not security
deposits), escrows, reserves, cash on hand, accounts or other amounts of the
Companies or the Property prior to Closing. Should any of the same
not be distributed at or before Closing, the Purchase Price shall be increased
by an amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of the aggregate the balance of any
bank deposits (and expressly not security deposits), escrows, reserves, cash on
hand, accounts or other amounts of the Companies which are not cashed out and
distributed to Seller prior to Closing under the prior sentence. Any
refunds or reimbursements due to Seller or the Companies from Lender for
expenditures prior to the Closing which under the Loan Documents are to be paid
or reimbursed to Seller or the Companies pursuant to reserves established
pursuant to the Loan Documents shall belong to Seller. The provisions of this
sub-section shall survive the Closing for a period of six (6)
months.
32
(k) Loan Balances. At
the Closing, the Purchase Price shall be credited with an amount equal to eighty
percent (80%) of the outstanding balance of the Loan as of the Closing Date (to
avoid all doubt, but not the amount of the Additional Loan Advance, if
any).
(l) Post-Closing
Adjustments. To
the extent that errors are discovered in, or additional information becomes
available with respect to, the prorations made at Closing, Seller and Purchaser
agree to make such post-Closing adjustments as may be necessary to correct any
such inaccuracy; however, all prorations will be deemed final twelve (12) months
after the Closing Date. Seller agrees to deliver to Purchaser copies
of all invoices and payments related to the Property received by Seller within
two (2) years after Closing, and Purchaser shall do the same for Seller, to the
extent that any such invoices or statements relate to the post-Closing
adjustments described in this subsection.
(m) Loan Transfer Fees,
Additional Loan Advance Fees, Costs and Expenses. Purchaser
shall pay all transfer fees and all other fees, costs and expenses respecting
the approval of the applicable lender or servicer under the Loan Documents with
respect to the assumption of the Loan and also with respect to the Additional
Loan Advance, if any, including, but not limited to, any fees, costs and
expenses in connection with obtaining nonconsolidation opinions or rating agency
approvals, incurred pursuant to the Loan Documents in connection with the
transactions contemplated by Purchaser that will take effect on the Closing
Date; provided however, that if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement
closes, all such fees and cost shall be paid eighty percent (80%) by Purchaser
and twenty percent (20%) by Seller.
(n) Capital
Expenditures. At
the Closing, Purchaser shall pay or reimburse Seller for (i) eighty percent
(80%) of all capital expenditures set forth on Schedule 11(n) incurred by
Seller prior to the Effective Date, and (ii) except as otherwise provided in
Section 33(d) below, eighty percent (80%) of all capital expenditures incurred
by Seller after the Effective Date.
12. Default.
(a) Seller’s Default –
General. If
Seller breaches any of the provisions of this Agreement (including without
limitation, if any of the representations or warranties of Seller in Section 7 are not true and
correct as of the Effective Date and the Closing Date or any of the covenants in
Section 6 have been
breached as of the Closing Date), then Purchaser shall be entitled, as the sole
and exclusive remedies available to Purchaser, either (i) to terminate this
Agreement (by delivering notice to Seller which includes a waiver of any right,
title or interest of Purchaser in the Subject Interests), in which event Escrow
Agent shall deliver the Deposit to Purchaser and the parties shall have no
further liability under this Agreement, at law or in equity, except with respect
to those obligations which, under the express terms of this Agreement, survive
termination, or (ii) to either (A) obtain specific performance of this
Agreement, or alternately (B) seek damages for breach of this
Agreement by Seller equal to the actual, reasonable, direct, verifiable
out-of-pocket, third party expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with
this Agreement and transaction, not to exceed One Hundred Fifty Thousand and
No/100 Dollars ($150,000.00) in the aggregate, provided, however, that Purchaser
must commence any action for specific performance or damages as set forth herein
within sixty (60) days after the scheduled Closing Date. Except as
provided in Section
12(b), Purchaser shall not be entitled to seek or recover a purchase
price credit or monetary damages against Seller or the Companies for any breach
or default under this Agreement. In no case shall Seller ever
be liable to Purchaser under any statutory, common law, equitable or other
theory of law, either prior to or following the Closing, for any lost rents,
profits, “benefit of the bargain,” business opportunities or any form of
special, consequential or punitive damages in connection with any claim,
liability, demand or cause of action in any way or manner relating to the
Property, the condition of the Property, this Agreement, or any transaction or
matter between the parties contemplated hereunder.
33
(b) Seller’s Default –
Exception. Notwithstanding
anything in Section
12(a) to the contrary, if, after Closing (and only if Closing has been
consummated), Purchaser determines that Seller has breached any of its
warranties, representations, covenants, or indemnities set forth in this
Agreement, Purchaser may bring an action against Seller for the direct and
actual damages that Purchaser suffers by reason of the breach, subject to the
following: (i) in no event shall the aggregate damages
recoverable from Seller exceed Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($750,000) (the
“Damages Cap”);
(ii) Purchaser’s right to bring an action for such breach shall be subject
to Section 24 below;
(iii) Purchaser shall not bring any action alleging aggregate damages of
less than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (the “Damages Threshold”) or, if
prior to Closing, Purchaser had actual knowledge of such breach; and
(iv) Seller shall not be liable for special, consequential, punitive or secondary damages or
loss of profits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller’s liability
for breach of any of the following obligations under this Agreement (the “Excluded Obligations”) shall
not be limited by or aggregated with the Damages Threshold or the Damages
Cap: (1) the obligation to make Closing adjustments and pay
Closing costs in accordance with Section 11; (2) the
obligation to indemnify Purchaser against claims for brokerage commissions in
accordance with Section
14; (3) the obligation of Seller to indemnify Purchaser and the Companies
under Section 26(a) for
damages and expenses incurred by any of them directly arising out of a breach by
Seller of its representations and warranties contained in Section 7(a)(i), 7(a)(ii), 7(a)(iii),
7(a)(v), 7(a)(vi), 7(a)(vii), 7(a)(viii), 7(a)(ix), 7(a)(xvii), 7(a)(xviii),
7(a)(xxi), 7(a)(xxiv), 7(a)(xxv) and 7(a)(xxvii) (but no other
representations and warranties of Seller); (4) Seller’s obligations under Section 6(d) of this
Agreement; (5) the damages arising from any fraudulent act or
fraudulent omission of Seller or any of its Affiliates, and (6) any attorneys’
fees incurred by Purchaser in connection with Seller’s default
hereunder.
(c) Purchaser’s
Default -
General. If, for any reason whatsoever (other than a failure
of a condition set forth in Section 9(b) and other than a
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5, Section 12(a), or Section 13, Purchaser fails to
complete the transaction as herein provided, Purchaser shall be in breach of its
obligations hereunder and Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement
by delivering notice to Purchaser and Escrow Agent, in which event Escrow Agent
shall immediately deliver the Deposit to Seller and Seller may retain the cash
portion of the Deposit as liquidated damages. In the event of any
such termination, Seller and Purchaser shall be relieved of all further
liability under this Agreement, at law or in equity, except for those
obligations that, under the express terms of this Agreement, survive
termination. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that it would be
extremely impractical and difficult to ascertain the actual damages that would
be suffered by Seller if Purchaser fails to consummate the purchase of the
Subject Interests as and when contemplated by this Agreement. Seller
and Purchaser have considered carefully the loss to Seller occasioned by taking
the Property off the market as a consequence of the negotiation and execution of
this Agreement and the other damages, general and specific, which Seller will
suffer as a result of Purchaser’s failure to close and Seller and Purchaser have
determined that the amount of the Deposit is a fair and reasonable estimate of
those damages. Purchaser and Seller agree that Seller’s right to
retain the Deposit shall be the sole remedy of Seller at law in the event of
such a breach of this Agreement by Purchaser prior to
Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section, if Purchaser brings an action against Seller for an alleged breach or
default by Seller of its obligations under this Agreement, records a lis pendens
or otherwise enjoins or restricts Seller’s ability to sell and transfer the
Subject Interests or refuses to consent to or instruct release of the Deposit to
Seller if required by Escrow Agent (each a “Purchaser’s Action”), Seller
shall not be restricted by the provisions of this Section from bringing an
action against Purchaser seeking expungement or relief from any improperly filed
lis pendens, injunction or other restraint, and/or recovering fees, costs and
expenses (including attorneys’ fees) which Seller may suffer or incur as a
result of any Purchaser’s Action but only to the extent that Seller is the
prevailing party, and the amount of any such fees, costs and expenses awarded to
Seller shall be in addition to the liquidated damages set forth herein and if
Purchaser is prevailing party then Purchaser is entitled to same.
34
(d) Purchaser’s
Default -
Exception. Notwithstanding anything in Section 12(c) to the contrary,
nothing contained in this Agreement shall, however, be deemed to limit
Purchaser’s liability to Seller for damages or injunctive relief for any breach
or default by Purchaser in its obligations under Sections 5(a), 5(e), 11, 14 or
17 of this Agreement or
in any of its obligations under this Agreement to be performed after Closing, or
any attorneys’ fees incurred by Seller in connection with Purchaser’s default
hereunder, and Seller may exercise any and all rights and remedies, at law or in
equity, which may be available for any such breach or default.
13.
Condemnation and
Damage. Promptly
upon receipt of written notices thereof, Seller shall give Purchaser written
notice of any condemnation, damage or destruction of the Property occurring
prior to the Closing. If prior to the Closing all or a material
portion (as defined below) of the Property is condemned, damaged or destroyed by
an insured casualty, Purchaser shall have the option of either (i) applying the
proceeds of any condemnation award or payment under any insurance policies
(other than business interruption or rental loss insurance) toward the payment
of the Purchase Price to the extent such condemnation awards or insurance
payments have been received by Seller, receiving from Seller an amount equal to
any applicable deductible under any such insurance policy and receiving an
assignment from Seller of Seller’s right, title and interest in any such awards
or payments not theretofore received by Seller, or (ii) terminating
this Agreement by delivering written notice of such termination to Seller and
Escrow Agent within ten (10) days after Purchaser has received written notice
from Seller of such material condemnation, damage or destruction. If,
prior to the Closing, a portion of the Property is condemned, damaged or
destroyed and such portion is not a material portion of the Property, the
proceeds of any condemnation award or payment and any applicable deductible
under any insurance policies shall be applied toward the payment of the Purchase
Price to the extent such condemnation awards or insurance payments have been
received by Seller and Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right,
title and interest in any unpaid awards or payments. For purposes of
this Section, the term “material portion” shall mean greater than ten percent
(10%) of the improvements on the Property or an absence of reasonable access to
the Property, or if the condemnation and/or damage results in the Property
failing to comply with the parking requirements under any applicable zoning
restrictions affecting the Property which cannot be cured or cannot be cured
without the benefit of a variance or exception. If the damage or destruction
arises out of an uninsured risk and shall exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000), as reasonably estimated by an engineer engaged by Seller and
reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, then either Seller or Purchaser may elect,
by written notice within ten (10) days of the occurrence of such damage or
destruction, either to terminate this Agreement or to close the transaction
contemplated hereby with a reduction of the Purchase Price equal to the costs of
repairing the Property, as so estimated by such engineer. If such damage or
destruction from such uninsured risk is One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000) or less, as so estimated, then neither party shall
have the right to terminate this Agreement as a result of such damage or
destruction and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by such estimated cost of
repairing the Property.
35
14. Broker’s
Commission. As,
if and when this transaction closes, Seller shall pay a brokerage commission to
CLW Realty Group, Inc. (“Disclosed Broker’) pursuant to
a separate agreement dated January 13, 2010 between Seller and Disclosed
Broker. With the exception of Disclosed Broker, each party represents
and warrants to the other party that in connection with the transaction
contemplated by this Agreement, no third party broker or finder has been engaged
or consulted by it or is entitled to compensation or commission in connection
with such transaction. The warranting party will indemnify, hold
harmless, and, upon request, defend the other party from and against any and all
claims of any brokers, finders or other third parties claiming by, through or
under it, or arising out of a breach of its representation and warranty
contained in the preceding sentence. The indemnity obligations
pursuant to this Section will include, without limitation, all damages, losses,
liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees and litigation costs) arising from and related to matters being indemnified
under this Section. To avoid all doubt, the brokerage commission to
Disclosed Broker shall be borne entirely by Seller and expressly shall not be
paid eighty percent (80%) by Purchaser and twenty percent (20%) by Seller. This
Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
15. Assignment. Purchaser
may not assign this Agreement or any of its rights under this Agreement, in
whole or in part, except that Purchaser may assign its rights under this
Agreement in whole or in part subject to the terms and conditions of Section 8(e) hereof and upon
the following conditions: (a) the assignee(s) of Purchaser must be an
entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with Purchaser, (b)
the assignee(s) of Purchaser shall assume all assigned obligations of Purchaser
hereunder, but Purchaser shall remain primarily liable for the performance of
Purchaser’s obligations hereunder, and (c) a copy of the fully executed written
assignment and assumption agreement(s) shall be delivered to Seller at least ten
(10) days prior to Closing. Any assignment in violation of this
Section shall be void and without force and effect. By written notice
to Seller, no later than twenty (20) days prior to Closing, Purchaser shall have
the right to allocate a reasonable and customary portion of the Purchase Price
to the purchase of the membership interests in Tenant Portfolio, such portion of
the Purchase Price not to exceed an amount to be agreed upon in writing (via
email is acceptable) during the Study Period.
36
16. Notices. All
notices, demands or other communications given hereunder shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been duly delivered (a) upon the delivery (or refusal to
accept delivery) by messenger or overnight express delivery service (or, if such
date is not on a business day, on the business day next following such date), or
(b) on the third (3rd)
business day next following the date of its mailing by certified mail, postage
prepaid, at a post office maintained by the United States Postal Service, or (c)

transmission report followed by

provided, however, that no notice of a change of address shall be effective
until actual receipt of such notice.
17. Confidentiality. Except
for disclosure to Permitted Persons (as defined below), Purchaser
shall not prior to Closing release, disclose, publish or otherwise disseminate
any information (“Confidential
Information”): (a) concerning the terms and conditions of
this Agreement; or (b) obtained by Purchaser in connection with its review
of the Property, including, without limitation, information contained in any
documents made available by Seller, obtained by Purchaser or Purchaser’s agents
during the Study Period, or obtained from any third parties. “Permitted Persons” shall
mean: Lender, DHEC, members, officers, directors, shareholders,
and/or partners of Purchaser (as the case may be); persons employed by or
retained for the purpose of conducting studies of the Property; and Purchaser’s
accountants, attorneys, lenders, investors, contractors and
consultants. In making any disclosure to a Permitted Person except
for Lender and DHEC, Purchaser shall instruct the Permitted Person to treat the
Confidential Information, and the results of their studies or analyses, as
confidential and to disclose any information related to this Agreement or the
Property only to Purchaser, Seller, or another Permitted
Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser is required by
any government authority or court to disclose any Confidential Information,
Purchaser shall immediately notify Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate with
Seller so that Seller may attempt to obtain an appropriate protective order,
and, in all events, Purchaser shall only disclose the portion of the
Confidential Information required by such government authority or court to be
disclosed. After Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate with
each other in the development and distribution of all news releases and other
public information disclosures with respect to this Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any public announcement or
statement with respect thereto prior to consultation with the Purchaser, in the
case of the Seller, and the Seller, in the case of the Purchaser. The parties
agree that the initial press release or releases to be issued in connection with
the execution of this Agreement shall be mutually agreed upon prior to the
issuance thereof. Moreover, after Closing, any party may make any required
disclosures in any required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
or other governmental authority, but each party shall notify the other parties
in advance of any such disclosure. This Section shall survive the
Closing and any termination of this Agreement.
18. Right to
Cure. If
any title defect or other matter which would entitle Purchaser to
terminate this Agreement shall first arise after Purchaser notifies Seller of
its Title Objections pursuant to Section 4(b)(ii) and
prior to the Closing or if Seller shall have breached any representation or
warranty hereunder, Seller may elect, by written notice to Purchaser, to cure
such title defect or other matter by causing it to be removed, insured over or
bonded to cure such breach and Seller may adjourn the Closing for up to thirty
(30) days to do so. Nothing contained in this Section shall
require Seller to cure any such title defect or other matter or to incur any
liability or expense to do so.
38
19. Captions/Interpretations. The
section headings or captions appearing in this Agreement are for convenience
only, are not a part of this Agreement, and are not to be considered in
interpreting this Agreement. Words in the singular shall be deemed to include
the plural and vice versa and words of one gender shall be deemed to include the
other gender as the context requires. The word “including” and words
of similar import when used in this Agreement shall mean “including, without
limitation,” unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise
specified. The word “or” shall not be
exclusive. References herein to this Agreement shall be deemed to
refer to this Agreement as of the date of such Agreement and as it may be
amended thereafter, unless otherwise specified. In the event any court or other
adjudicative body of competent jurisdiction is called upon to interpret this
Agreement, the language of this Agreement shall be construed as a whole,
according to its fair meaning and intent, and not strictly for or against any
party, regardless of which party drafted or was principally responsible for
drafting the Agreement or any specific term or condition hereof. The
Agreement has been circulated for editing to all parties. As such,
the Agreement shall be deemed to have been drafted by all parties jointly, and
no party shall be deemed to have drafted this Agreement, or any of its
individual terms or conditions. No party may offer in evidence or
otherwise use, for purposes of suggesting any interpretation of this Agreement,
any prior drafts of this Agreement. In the context of any covenant of Seller
hereunder, such covenant shall also include the obligation of Seller to cause
its privately held (that is, non-publicly traded) Affiliates to comply with such
covenant, as appropriate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
all references to the Affiliates of Seller shall not include its publicly traded
Affiliates.
20. Entire Agreement;
Modification. This
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter contained in this Agreement and all prior negotiations,
discussions, writings and agreements between the parties with respect to the
subject matter of this Agreement are superseded and of no further force and
effect. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no covenant,
term or condition of this Agreement will be deemed to have been waived by either
party unless such waiver is in writing signed by the party charged with such
waiver; however, Escrow Agent shall not be required to join in any amendment to
this Agreement unless such amendment alters its rights or obligations under this
Agreement. All amendments executed by Seller and Purchaser shall be
binding and effective as between Seller and Purchaser, whether or not Escrow
Agent has executed such amendments.
21. Binding
Effect. Subject
to the restrictions on assignment set forth in Section 15, this Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Seller, Purchaser, and their
respective successors and assigns.
22. Controlling Law;
Interpretation. This
Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Florida, excluding choice of law principles.
23. Severability. The
unenforceability or invalidity of any provision of this Agreement will not
render any other provision of this Agreement unenforceable or
invalid.
39
24. Survival. Unless
otherwise expressly herein stated to survive, all representations, covenants,
indemnities, conditions and agreements contained herein shall merge into and be
superseded by the various documents executed and delivered at Closing and shall
not survive the Closing.
25. “As Is” Sale; Limitation on
Liability.
(a) Condition of
Property. Except
as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser acknowledges and
agrees that (i) it is purchasing the Subject Interests based solely upon
its own inspections and investigations of the Property, (ii) it accepts the
Property in its “as is”, “where is” and “how is” condition as of the Closing
Date, with all faults, and (iii) neither Seller, nor anyone on behalf of
Seller, have made any representations or warranties, express or implied, about
the Property, including, without limitation, any warranty of condition,
habitability, merchantability, or fitness for a particular
purpose. Without limiting the generality of this Section 25, except as
otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser acknowledges that
Seller does not make any representation or warranty with regard
to: (1) the value, profitability, development potential,
marketability, or leasing of the Property; (2) the compliance or
noncompliance of the Property with any laws, rules, regulations, orders or
requirements of governmental authorities (collectively, “Legal Requirements”),
including, without limitation, zoning, subdivision, and other land use laws,
building and life safety codes, parking codes, and the Americans with
Disabilities Act; (3) the environmental condition of the Property,
including, without limitation, the presence or absence on or about the Property,
or the release from the Property, of any hazardous waste, hazardous materials,
or toxic substance as defined or regulated by Legal Requirements relating to
environmental protection, pollution control, air, water, or soils quality, or
conservation (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”);
(4) the physical condition of the Land or Improvements, including, without
limitation, the condition of any building components, systems, or equipment;
(5) any covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Property;
(6) the utilities serving the Property; (7) any matter relating to the
tenants under the Leases; or (8) any other matter relating to the
Property. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser
releases Seller from any liability relating to these matters (1) through (8) of
this Section 25. Purchaser
assumes the risk of adverse matters, including adverse physical conditions,
defects, construction defects, environmental, health, safety and welfare matters
which may not have been revealed by Purchaser’s inspections. Each
party has been represented by adequate counsel, all drafts have been exchanged
by the parties, and accordingly no provision of this Agreement will be construed
against any party by reason of its preparation or
preparer. Accordingly, any rule of law or equity or legal decision
that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in the Agreement against
any party that drafted it is of no application and is expressly
waived. Each party waives any rights or remedies it may have or be
entitled to, deriving from disparity in size or from any significant disparate
bargaining position in relation to any other party.
40
Except as
otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement as to covenants,
representations, warranties and obligations to indemnify that expressly survive
Closing, and then only for the period of time that that such covenants,
representations, warranties and obligations to indemnify expressly survive
Closing, effective as of the Closing Date, Purchaser, for itself and its agents,
Affiliates, successors and assigns, hereby waives, releases and forever
discharges Seller from any and all rights, claims and demands at law or in
equity, whether known or unknown at the time of this Agreement, which Purchaser
has or may have in the future, arising out of the physical, environmental,
economic or legal condition of the Property, including, without limitation, all
claims in tort or contract and any claim for indemnification or contribution
arising under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and
Liability Act (42 U.S.C. Section 9601, et seq.) or any similar
federal, state or local statute, rule or regulation, and all other title or due
diligence matters described above in this Section 25 or any other
provisions of this Agreement. Purchaser hereby assumes the risk of
changes in applicable laws and regulations relating to past, present and future
environmental conditions and the risk that adverse physical characteristics and
conditions, including without limitation, the presence of Hazardous Materials or
other contaminants, may not have been revealed by its
investigation. Purchaser waives all objections and complaints,
whether known or unknown, concerning the physical characteristics and any
existing conditions of the Property, including Seller’s obligations under the
Leases relating to the physical, environmental or legal compliance status of the
Property, whether arising before or after the Effective
Date. Purchaser, upon Closing, shall be deemed to have waived,
relinquished and released Seller from and against any and all matters affecting
the Property, including any and all complaints or objections concerning the
physical characteristics of the Property or existing Property
conditions. Purchaser waives the benefits of any law which generally
provides that a general release does not extend to claims which a creditor does
not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release
which, if known by him, may have materially affected his settlement with the
debtor. The provisions of this Section 25 shall not, and shall not be deemed or
construed to, release the parties from their obligations under the Operating
Agreements referenced in Section 9(b) (viii) and Section 9(c)
(viii).
The
provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing or termination of this
Agreement indefinitely and will not merge into the closing
documents.
(b) Limited
Liability. Seller’s
and Purchaser’s shareholders, members, directors, partners, authorized persons,
officers, agents, and employees shall have no personal liability under this
Agreement, without any exception whatsoever.
26. Indemnification.
(a) By Seller. Seller
hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser subsequent to Closing
from any and all actions and causes of action, suits, claims, controversies,
liabilities, damages and costs (including, specifically, attorneys’ fees and
costs in all trial, appellate, bankruptcy and post-judgment proceedings)
whatsoever, which Purchaser is subject to, incurs or pays by reason of the
inaccuracy of or breach by Seller of the representations, warranties or
covenants set forth in this Agreement. The indemnification set forth
herein shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the purchase of the Subject Interests by Purchaser from Seller for
a period of twelve (12) months.
(b) By the Companies and
Purchaser. Purchaser
hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller subsequent to Closing from
any and all actions and causes of action, suits, claims, controversies,
liabilities, damages and costs (including, specifically, attorneys’ fees and
costs in all trial, appellate, bankruptcy and post-judgment proceedings)
whatsoever, which Seller is subject to, incurs or pays by reason of the
inaccuracy of or breach by Purchaser of the representations, warranties or
covenants set forth in this Agreement. The indemnification set forth
herein shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the purchase of the Subject Interests by Purchaser from Seller for
a period of twelve (12) months.
41
27. Recordation. Neither
this Agreement nor any notice or memorandum of this Agreement shall be recorded,
but may be disclosed by Purchaser if and to the extent required by the
applicable securities law, as provided in Section 17
hereof.
28. Waiver of Jury
Trial. PURCHASER
AND SELLER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER
OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED TO BE
EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS,
STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ANY ACTIONS OF EITHER PARTY ARISING OUT
OF OR RELATED IN ANY MANNER WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY (INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY ACTION TO RESCIND OR CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CLAIMS
OR DEFENSES ASSERTING THAT THIS AGREEMENT WAS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED OR IS
OTHERWISE VOID OR VOIDABLE). THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR SELLER TO
ENTER INTO AND ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT AND THE DOCUMENTS TO BE DELIVERED BY
PURCHASER AT CLOSING, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE CLOSING OR TERMINATION OF THIS
AGREEMENT. Each party hereby authorizes and empowers the other to
file this Section and this Agreement with the clerk or judge of any court
of competent jurisdiction as a written consent to waiver of jury
trial.
29. Time of Essence; Calculation
of Time Periods. Time
is of the essence as to each and every provision of this
Agreement. If any date upon which action is required under this
Agreement shall be a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the date for such action
shall be extended to the first business day after such date which is not a
Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
30. Counterparts; Fax
Signatures. Signatures
to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile or telecopy shall be binding on the
party transmitting such signatures and such party shall not use as a defense
against the enforceability of this Agreement the fact that such signature so
transmitted is not original. This Agreement may be signed in
counterparts, each of which shall be enforceable against the party executing and
delivering same, and all of which shall constitute a single and enforceable
agreement.
31. Covenants by
Purchaser and
Seller. Purchaser
and Seller shall cooperate in a commercially reasonable manner with each other
in their respective efforts to obtain consents for the transactions contemplated
herein (including providing the lenders such information concerning Purchaser as
may be required pursuant to the Loan Documents) so as not to trigger a default,
or except as set forth in Section 3(d) and Section 11(m) hereof, cause a
fee under any of the Loan Documents.
42
32. Escrow
Agent. Escrow
Agent shall hold the Deposit (and any interest earned thereon) for the purposes
as provided in this Agreement. If Purchaser timely terminates this
Agreement pursuant to Section 5(b), Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to
Purchaser pursuant to Section 5(c). Except as expressly provided in
the prior sentence, in the event of any dispute, Escrow Agent shall have the
right to deposit the Deposit (and any interest earned thereon) in court to await
the resolution of such dispute. Escrow Agent shall not incur any
liability by reason of any action or non-action taken by it in good faith or
pursuant to the judgment or order of a court of competent
jurisdiction. Escrow Agent shall have the right to rely upon the
genuineness of all certificates, notices and instruments delivered to it
pursuant hereto, and all the signatures thereto or to any other writing received
by Escrow Agent purporting to be signed by any party hereto, and upon the truth
of the contents thereof. Escrow Agent shall not pay or deliver the Deposit (and
any interest earned thereon) to any party unless written demand is made therefor
and a copy of such written demand is delivered to the other party. If
Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection from the other party to the
proposed payment or delivery within five (5) business days after such demand is
served in accordance with the Notice provision herein on such party, Escrow
Agent is hereby authorized and directed to make such payment or
delivery. If Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within
such five (5) business day period or if for any other reason Escrow Agent in
good faith shall elect not to make such payment or delivery, Escrow Agent shall
forward a copy of the objections, if any, to the other party or parties, and
continue to hold the Deposit (and any interest earned thereon) unless otherwise
directed by written instructions from the parties to this Agreement or by a
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. In any event, Escrow
Agent shall have the right to refrain from taking any further action with
respect to the subject matter of the escrow until it is reasonably satisfied
that such dispute is resolved or action by Escrow Agent is required by an order
or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Purchaser acknowledges that
Escrow Agent is legal counsel to Seller and shall have the right to continue to
represent Seller in any matter, litigation or proceeding, including, without
limitation, any action brought by either party relating to the enforcement or
breach of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 32 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement or the Closing (as the case may be).
33. CRC
Licenses.
(a) Purchaser’s
obligation to purchase the Subject Interests is conditioned upon Purchaser
securing, using reasonable diligence, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense
(provided however, if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement closes,
such costs and expenses shall be paid eighty percent (80%) by Purchaser and
twenty percent (20%) by Seller) from the South Carolina Department of Health and
Environmental Control, or the applicable agency body or authority thereof
(collectively, “DHEC”)
consent to the transfer of a direct or indirect interest in Lexington Operator
and Greenville Operator, the current holders of Healthcare License Nos. CRC
[Community Residential
Care]-1329 and XXX-0000 XXXX, respectively (collectively, the “Licenses”) issued by DHEC to
operate community residential care facilities on the Lexington Real Property and
Greenville Real Property, respectively. In connection therewith, the
Purchaser and Seller shall jointly apply for new community residential care
licenses (the “Replacement CRC
Licenses”) to replace the existing Licenses, or a so-called letter of
exemption (“Exemption
Letter”) which provides that for a period of six months after issuance
thereof, the Licenses shall remain in full force effect after the transfer of
indirect majority control of the Operators, as reasonably and jointly determined
by Purchaser and Seller. In connection therewith, Purchaser agrees to
(i) properly complete, execute, deliver and submit to DHEC an application for
Replacement Licenses or application for Exemption Letter, as the case may be,
that appears complete on its face to DHEC, together with all applicable
application fees, within ten (10) business days after the Effective Date, and
all other applications, documents, instruments and petitions and take or cause
others to take all other actions as may be necessary or desirable, to obtain the
Replacement Licenses or Exemption Letter, as the case may be, (ii) promptly
furnish to DHEC and Seller such other information, financial or otherwise, as
may be requested by DHEC or counsel following Purchaser’s initial submission of
the application, (iii) proceed with diligence and use commercially reasonable
efforts to (A) obtain the written agreement of DHEC to issue the Replacement
Licenses immediately after Closing, such agreement to the form as customarily
issued by DHEC (the “DHEC
Comfort Letter”), or (B) cause the issuance of the Exemption Letter, as
the case may be, at the earliest possible date, (iv) keep Seller timely apprised
of the status thereof, and (v) provide Seller with copies of all correspondence
between DHEC and Purchaser. Purchaser shall have a period of thirty
(30) days from the Effective Date (the “Licensing Period”) in which to
obtain the DHEC Comfort Letter or Exemption Letter, as the case may
be.
43
(b) In
connection with the Purchaser’s obligations under Section 33(a), Seller shall
(x) provide to Purchaser all information reasonably requested by Purchaser
related to the Operators or operations at the Real Property as is required to be
provided to DHEC to enable the Purchaser to file a completed application (e.g.
staff survey of employees with date of birth, social security numbers and job
duties, etc.) (herein referred to as the “Necessary Seller Filing Information”),
and (y) reasonably cooperate with Purchaser and join in and execute such
applications, filings, and consents reasonably necessary or appropriate, to
process Purchaser’s applications and/or requests made to DHEC; provided,
however, that (i) Purchaser shall deliver to Seller for its prior review and
approval within three (3) business days from its receipt (such approval not to
be unreasonably withheld, denied or delayed) any such application or filing to
be reviewed; and (ii) Seller shall not be obligated to undertake any action
which would jeopardize the existing Licenses, and it is recognized that the
existing Licenses shall not be deemed effectively transferred, to the extent
permitted by law, until immediately after Closing.
(c)
In the event Purchaser, having exercised diligent and commercially reasonable
efforts to secure the DHEC Comfort Letter or Exemption Letter, as the case may
be, is unable to secure either of the same within the Licensing Period,
Purchaser or Seller shall have the right, by sending written notice to the other
party prior to the expiration of the Licensing Period, to extend the termination
of the Licensing Period for a period of sixty (60) days. In the event
Purchaser, having exercised diligent and commercially reasonable efforts is
unable to secure the DHEC Comfort Letter or Exemption Letter, as the case may
be, within the Licensing Period, as it may have been extended, Purchaser shall
have the right, by sending written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of
the Licensing Period, as it may have been extended, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to immediately terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the
Deposit.
44
(d) In
the event that the DHEC shall require improvements, alterations or remodeling to
the Facilities or an agreement or undertaking to make improvements, alterations
or remodeling to the Facilities (collectively, a “Required Alteration”) as a
condition to the issuance as of the Replacement CRC Licenses, if the cost of the
Required Alteration shall exceed Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) for
either Facility, as reasonably estimated by a general contractor or an engineer
engaged by Seller and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, then either Seller or
Purchaser may elect, by written notice to the other party within five (5)
business days of the receipt of such estimate to terminate this Agreement.
Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, in the event of such
termination of the Agreement by Purchaser to elect and agree to pay one hundred
percent (100%) of the overage (that is, to avoid all doubt, all
amounts in excess of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) for the Lexington
Facility and all amounts in excess of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000)
for the Greenville Facility, as and if applicable) by written notice from Seller
to Purchaser (“Seller’s
Nullification Notice”) within five (5) business days after receipt of
Purchaser’s notice of termination pursuant to this Section 33 (d),
whereupon Purchaser’s notice of termination shall be nullified
by Seller’s Nullification Notice and the parties shall proceed to Closing,
subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. If (i) the estimated costs of
the Required Alteration are equal to or less than Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
($200,000) for each Facility, or (ii) this Agreement is not terminated, or
terminated and then reinstated pursuant to Seller’s Nullification Notice,
Purchaser shall pay eighty percent (80%) and Seller shall pay twenty percent
(20%) of the costs of the Required Alterations up to Two Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($200,000) per Facility, and provided that if neither party shall
terminate the Agreement after an estimate in excess of Two Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($200,000) per any Facility as provided herein, if applicable, Seller
shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of the costs of the Required Alterations in
excess of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) per Facility.

reasonable diligent efforts to cooperate with Purchaser and its Affiliates to
(a) confirm that all Licenses are obtained and held by the proper entity for
operation of the Property, and (b) to provide any records in Seller’s custody or
control pertaining to the Real Property or Facilities which may be reasonably
requested of Purchaser by any authorized governmental
agency. Further, upon Purchaser’s reasonable request, for a period of
one (1) year after Closing, Seller shall make the operating statements and any
and all books, records, correspondence, financial data, leases, delinquency
reports and all other documents and matters maintained by Seller or its agents
and relating to receipts and expenditures pertaining to the Real Property or
Facilities for the three (3) most recent full calendar years and the current
calendar year (collectively, the “Records”) available to Buyer
for inspection, copying and audit by Purchaser's designated accountants, and at
Purchaser's sole expense. “Records” shall include unaudited and
unreviewed historical financial statements pertaining to the Real Property or
Facilities and any other documents pertaining to the Real Property or Facilities
reasonably identified by Purchaser that are required to allow the Purchaser to
comply with any reporting, disclosure, or filing requirements imposed upon the
Purchaser by the SEC with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. Additionally, Seller shall provide
Purchaser, but without expense to Seller, with (a)
representation letter to auditor in substantially the form as Exhibit
K attached hereto and made a part hereof, and (b) copies of, or access
to, such factual information as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser or its
designated accountants, and in the possession or control of Seller, to enable
Purchaser to file any filings required by the SEC in connection with the Real
Property or Facilities or purchase of the Subject Interests. This
Section
35 shall survive the Closing.

LETTERHEAD
[MONTH]
[DAY], 2010
Auditor
____________________
____________________
We are
providing this letter in connection with your audits of the balance sheets of
[LEXINGTON OWNER, LEXINGTON OPERATOR, GREENVILLE OWNER AND GREENVILLE OPERATOR,
as applicable] (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash
flows for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009 for the purpose of
expressing an opinion as to whether the financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position, results of operations, and cash
flows of the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (including any other comprehensive basis of
accounting). We confirm that we are responsible for the
following:
a.
|
The
fair presentation in the consolidated financial statements of financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America
|
b.
|
The
design and implementation of programs and controls to prevent and detect
fraud
|
c.
|
Establishing
and maintaining effective internal control over financial
reporting
|
Certain
representations in this letter are described as being limited to matters that
are material. Items are considered material, regardless of size, if
they involve an omission or misstatement of accounting information that, in
light of surrounding circumstances, makes it probable that the judgment of a
reasonable person relying on the information would be changed or influenced by
the omission or misstatement.
We
confirm, to the best of our knowledge and belief, the following representations
made to you during your audits.
1.
|
The
financial statements referred to above are fairly presented in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
|
1
2.
|
The
Company has made available to you
all:
|
a.
|
Financial
records and related data.
|
b.
|
Minutes
of the meetings of unitholders, stockholders, partners, directors, and
committees of directors or summaries of actions of recent meetings for
which minutes have not yet been
prepared.
|
3.
|
There
have been no communications from regulatory agencies concerning
noncompliance with or deficiencies in financial reporting
practices.
|
4.
|
We
have no knowledge of any fraud or suspected fraud affecting the Company
involving:
|
a.
|
Management.
|
b.
|
Employees
who have significant roles in the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting.
|
c.
|
Others
if the fraud could have a material effect on the financial
statements.
|
5.
|
We
have no knowledge of any allegations of fraud or suspected fraud affecting
the Company received in communications from employees, former employees,
analysts, regulators, short sellers, tenants, property managers, or
others.
|
6.
|
There
are no unasserted claims or assessments that legal counsel has advised us
are probable of assertion and must be disclosed in accordance with
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 5, Accounting for
Contingencies.
|
7.
|
We
have made available all relevant information about financial interests and
contractual arrangements with related parties, de facto agents, and other
entities, including but not limited to, their governing documents, equity
and debt instruments, contracts, leases, guarantee arrangements, and other
financial contracts and
arrangements.
|
8.
|
The
information we provided about financial interests and contractual
arrangements with related parties, de facto agents, and other entities
includes information about all transactions (including sales agreements,
purchase agreements, loans, transfer agreements, and leasing
arrangements), unwritten understandings, agreement modifications, and
written and oral side
agreements
|
9.
|
An
adequate provision for income taxes, if any, has been
made.
|
10.
|
We
have disclosed to you the accounting conventions used when preparing our
financial statements. We believe that the effect of applying
these accounting conventions and the use of such applications is
immaterial to the financial
statements.
|
Except
where otherwise stated below, matters less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000.00) collectively are not considered to be exceptions that require
disclosure for the purpose of the following representations. This
amount is not necessarily indicative of amounts that would require adjustment to
or disclosure in the financial statements.
2
11.
|
There
are no transactions that have not been properly recorded in the accounting
records underlying the financial
statements.
|
12.
|
The
following, to the extent applicable, have been appropriately identified,
properly recorded, and disclosed in the financial
statements:
|
a.
|
Related-party transactions and
associated amounts receivable or payable, including sales, purchases,
loans, transfers, leasing arrangements, and guarantees (written or
oral).
|
b.
|
Guarantees,
whether written or oral, under which the Company is contingently
liable.
|
13.
|
In
preparing the financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management
uses estimates. All estimates have been disclosed in the
financial statements for which known information available prior to the
issuance of the financial statements indicates that both of the following
criteria are met:
|
a.
|
It
is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect on the
financial statements of a condition, situation, or set of circumstances
that existed at the date of the financial statements will change in the
near term due to one or more future confirming
events.
|
b.
|
The
effect of the change would be material to the financial
statements.
|
14.
|
Risks
associated with concentrations, based on information known to management,
that meet all of the following criteria have been disclosed in the
financial statements:
|
a.
|
The
concentration exists at the date of the financial
statements.
|
b.
|
The
concentration makes the enterprise vulnerable to the risk of a near-term
severe impact.
|
c.
|
It
is at least reasonably possible that the events that could cause the
severe impact will occur in the near
term.
|
15.
|
There
are no:
|
a.
|
Violations
or possible violations of laws or regulations whose effects should be
considered for disclosure in the financial statements or as a basis for
recording a loss contingency.
|
b.
|
Other
liabilities or gain or loss contingencies that are required to be accrued
or disclosed by FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for
Contingencies.
|
16.
|
Other
than as disclosed in Note __ [debt disclosure] to the financial
statements, the Company has satisfactory title to all owned assets, and
there are no liens or encumbrances on such assets nor has any asset been
pledged as collateral.
|
17.
|
The
Company has complied with all aspects of contractual agreements that may
have an effect on the financial statements in the event of
noncompliance.
|
3
18.
|
We
have disclosed to you any change in the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal
year ended December 31, 2009 that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting.
|
19.
|
With
regard to the fair value measurements and disclosures of certain assets,
liabilities, and specific components of equity, such as cash and cash
equivalents, deferred acquisition costs and deposits, other assets,
prepaid rent, security deposits, amounts due from/to related parties,
accounts payable and accrued expenses and notes payable, we believe
that:
|
|
·
|
The
measurement methods, including the related assumptions, used in
determining fair value were appropriate and were consistently
applied.
|
|
·
|
The
completeness and adequacy of the disclosures related to fair values are in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
|
|
·
|
No
events have occurred subsequent to December 31, 2009 that require
adjustment to the fair value measurements and disclosures included in the
financial statements, except in connection with the transaction with
Cornerstone Healthcare Plus REIT,
Inc.
|
20.
|
The
methods and significant assumptions used to determine fair values of
financial instruments are as follows: [Describe method] The methods and
significant assumptions used result in a measure of fair value appropriate
for financial statement measurement and disclosure purposes in accordance
with GAAP.
|
21.
|
The
Company, using its best estimates based on reasonable and supportable
assumptions and projections, reviews long-lived assets for impairment in
accordance with FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The financial
statements referred to above reflect all adjustments required by FASB
Statement 144.
|
22.
|
Financial
instruments with significant individual or group concentration of credit
risk have been appropriately identified, properly recorded, and disclosed
in the financial statements.
|
23.
|
Receivables
recorded in the financial statements represent valid claims against
debtors for sales or other charges arising on or before the balance-sheet
date and have been appropriately reduced to their estimated net realizable
value.
|
24.
|
Arrangements
with financial institutions involving compensating balances or other
arrangements involving restrictions on cash balances, line of credit, or
similar arrangements have been properly disclosed in the financial
statements.
|
25.
|
We
believe that all expenditures that have been deferred to future periods
are recoverable.
|
26.
|
Provision
has been made for any loss that is probable from environmental remediation
liabilities. We believe that such estimate is reasonable based
on available information and that the liabilities and related loss
contingencies and the expected outcome of uncertainties have been
adequately described in the Company’s financial
statements.
|
27.
|
We
are not presently subject to any material litigation nor, to our
knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us, which if
determined unfavorably to us, would have a material adverse effect on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.

January 1, 2010, Royal Senior Management Care, LCC and others, including
Lexington Operator and Greenville Operator, contracted with a new
payroll/PEO Company, named AlphaStaff, Inc. As a result, the
employees could no longer participate in the Co-Advantage Resources, Inc.
Retirement Savings Plan. It is expected that the the
individuals leased to Lexington Operator and Greenville Operator or
Affiliates and working at the Lexington Facility or Greenville Facility,
respectively, will participate in a 401k plan sponsored by Alphastaff,
Inc. However, due to the implementation of that new payroll service, the
adoption and implementation of the new plan has been delayed and no monies
have been withheld from the participants since January 1, 2010.
Deferrals will commence again when all plan documents are in order. The
adoption of the plan and open enrollment are expected to commence on or
about May 1, 2010.
