respects at and as of the Closing as though such representations and warranties

7.5 Title Insurance and

has provided Buyer with a commitment for an owner’s policy of title insurance
(the “Title
Commitment”) issued by the Title Insurer covering fee simple title to the
Property, in which the Title Insurer shall agree to insure, in the amount of the
Purchase Price, good and indefeasible title to the Property free from the
Schedule B standard printed exceptions and all other exceptions except for (i)
exceptions which, under applicable state rules and regulations, cannot be
deleted or modified and (ii) Permitted Exceptions, with such endorsements as
Buyer shall reasonably require and with insurance coverage over any “gap”
period. Seller shall provide, or cause to be provided, to Buyer
complete, legible copies of all instruments noted as exceptions therein, and
shall be delivered promptly to Buyer upon receipt by Seller.
(b) If
(i) any of the Title Commitments reflect any exceptions to title other than
Permitted Exceptions (other than exceptions which constitute Permitted
Exceptions pursuant to Section A.7.5(b)(iii)
below) which are not acceptable to Buyer in Buyer’s sole discretion, or
(ii) the Survey to be obtained by Buyer pursuant to Section 7.5(e) below
discloses anything not acceptable to Buyer in Buyer’s sole discretion, or
(iii) at any time prior to the Closing, title to Seller’s interests in the
Property is encumbered by any exception to title other than Permitted Exceptions
(other than exceptions which constitute Permitted Exceptions pursuant to Section A.7.5(b)(iii)
below), which was not on the initial Title Commitment for the Property and is
not acceptable to Buyer in Buyer’s sole discretion (any such exception or
unacceptable statement of fact being referred to herein as a “Title Defect”), then
Buyer shall, on or before the later of ten (10) days after the Effective Date,
or ten (10) days after receipt of the updated Title Commitment, as the case may
be, give Seller written notice of such Title Defect (the “Title
Notice”). Such Title Notice shall include a copy of the
relevant Title Commitment and copies of the exceptions. Any exception
to title that is (x) disclosed in the Title Commitment, or
(y) identified on a Survey, which, in either case, is not identified as a
Title Defect in the Title Notice, shall be deemed to be a “Permitted Exception”
for purposes of this Agreement. Seller shall have the right, but not
the obligation, within ten (10) days after receipt of any such Title Notice, to
notify Buyer that Seller will take the action necessary to remove such Title
Defect. If Seller elects to so notify Buyer, then, on or before the
earlier of (a) ten (10) days after receipt of such Title Notice, or (b) the
Closing, Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable evidence of such
removal. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
the following items (the “Required Cure Items”)
must be cured prior to or at Closing (with Seller having the right to apply the
portion of the Purchase Price allocated to either such party pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof,
or a portion thereof, for such purpose): (w) the encroachment of the building
over the setback as reflected on the survey and in the Title Notice, (x) all
mortgages, security deeds, and other security instruments, (y) all past Taxes,
and (z) all judgments against the Seller which may constitute a Lien against the
Property.
(c) In
the event Buyer timely gives a Title Notice to Seller and the Title Defects
specified therein are not cured on or before the Closing and Seller does not
timely notify Buyer that Seller will remove Title Defects within the applicable
time period as specified above, Buyer shall have the option, as
Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, either to:
|
(i)
|
accept
Seller’s interest in the Real Property subject to such Title Defect(s) or
Required Cure Item(s), in which event such Title Defect(s) or Required
Cure Item(s) shall become part of the Permitted Exceptions, and to close
the transaction contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement; or
|
22
|
(ii)
|
by
giving Seller written notice of Buyer’s election, terminate this Agreement
and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit (less the Independent
Contract Consideration), in which event no party shall have any further
rights or obligations to the other hereunder, except for such rights and
obligations that, by the express terms hereof, survive any termination of
this Agreement.
|
If Buyer
fails to give notice of its election of option (ii) within fifteen (15) days
after receipt by Seller of the Title Notice, Buyer will be deemed to have
accepted such Title Defect(s) or Required Cure Item(s) as Permitted
Exceptions. However, if the Closing is extended pursuant to Section
9.1(b), Buyer obtains an updated Title Commitment reflecting additional items
not reflected on the original Title Commitment and Buyer provides an updated
Title Notice to Seller with respect to such additional items, then if Buyer
fails to give notice of its election of option (ii) above within fifteen (15)
days after receipt by Seller of such updated Title Notice, Buyer will be deemed
to have accepted such Title Defect(s) or Required Cure Item(s) as Permitted
Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in
section shall limit the right of the Buyer to pursue any and all remedies
provided in Section
11.2 of this Agreement as a result of Seller’s default other than with
respect to this subsection (c). If the Title Defect is the
encroachment of the building over the setback as identified on the survey and in
the Title Notice and so long as either of the parties is actively pursuing the
correction of such defect, then the fifteen (15) day period provided for above
in this paragraph shall, with respect to such Title Defect only, be extended
during the time when either such party is pursuing such correction, not to
exceed the Extended Closing Date. Both parties agree to use their
best efforts in pursuing the correction of such Title Defect.
(d) In
the event (x) Buyer timely gives a Title Notice to Seller, and Seller gives
timely notice that Seller will cure and remove Title Defects, and such Title
Defects specified therein are not cured on or before the Closing, or (y) if
Seller does cure and remove a Required Cure Item on or before the Closing, Buyer
shall have the option, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, either
to:
|
(i)
|
accept
Seller’s interest in the Real Property subject to such Title Defect(s) or
Required Cure Item(s), in which event such Title Defect(s) or Required
Cure Item(s) shall become part of the Permitted Exceptions, and to close
the transaction contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement;
|
|
(ii)
|
by
giving Seller written notice of Buyer’s election, pay any sum necessary to
cure the Title Defect(s) Seller agreed to cure and remove or the Required
Cure Item(s), as applicable, and deduct such amount from the Purchase
Price in an amount not to exceed $150,000;
or
|
|
(iii)
|
by
giving Seller written notice of Buyer’s election, terminate this Agreement
and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit (less the Independent
Contract Consideration), in which event no party shall have any further
rights or obligations to the other hereunder, except for such rights and
obligations that, by the express terms hereof, survive any termination of
this Agreement.
|
23
If Buyer
fails to give notice of its election of option (ii) or (iii) within fifteen (15)
days after receipt by Seller of the Title Notice, Buyer will be deemed to have
accepted such Title Defect(s) or Required Cure Item(s) as Permitted
Exceptions. However, if the Closing
is extended pursuant to Section 9.1(b), Buyer obtains an updated Title
Commitment reflecting additional items not reflected on the original Title
Commitment and Buyer provides an updated Title Notice to Seller with respect to
such additional items, then if Buyer fails to give notice
of its election of option (ii) or (iii) above within fifteen (15) days after
receipt by Seller of such updated Title Notice, Buyer will be deemed to have
accepted such Title Defect(s) or Required Cure Item(s) as Permitted Exceptions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in section shall limit the
right of the Buyer to pursue any and all remedies provided in Section 11.2 of this
Agreement as a result of Seller’s default other than with respect to (x), (y),
or (z) above in this subsection (d). If the Title Defect is the
encroachment of the building over the setback as identified on the survey and in
the Title Notice and so long as either of the parties is actively pursuing the
correction of such defect, then the fifteen (15) day period provided for above
in this paragraph shall, with respect to such Title Defect only, be extended
during the time when either such party is pursuing such correction, not to
exceed the Extended Closing Date. Both parties agree to use their
best efforts in pursuing the correction of such Title Defect.
(e) Seller
has previously provided Buyer with copies of the most current existing boundary
survey for the Property. Buyer may order one or more boundary surveys
for the Property (the “Survey”) prepared by
a registered land surveyor or surveyors satisfactory to Buyer. Each
Survey shall (i) be completed in accordance with Buyer’s reasonable survey
requirements, and shall be certified to Buyer, the Title Insurer and any Lender
of Buyer by such surveyor; (ii) have one perimeter description for the
Property; (iii) show all easements, rights-of-way, setback lines,
encroachments and other matters affecting the use or development of the
Property; and (iv) disclose on the face thereof the gross and net acreage
of the Property. It is agreed that Buyer's failure to obtain such
Survey shall not extend the time within which Buyer shall give the Title Notice
as provided above, and Buyer shall not be entitled to object to any matter
subject to the receipt of the Survey. In the event Buyer
obtains a Survey of the Property other than the Survey provided by Seller to
Buyer, Buyer shall provide a copy of such Survey to Seller promptly after
Buyer's receipt of same.
(f)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, Seller covenants and agrees that at or prior to Closing, Seller shall
(i) pay or cause to be paid in full or cause to be canceled and discharged or
otherwise bond and discharge as liens against the Property all mechanics’,
materialmen’s, repairmen’s, contractors’ or other similar Liens which encumber
the Property as of the Effective Date created by, through or under Seller or
which may be filed against the Property after the Effective Date created by,
through or under Seller and on or prior to the Closing (ii) pay or cause to be
paid in full all past due ad valorem taxes and assessments of any kind
constituting a lien against the Property which are due and payable, and (iii)
pay or cause to be paid in full, or cause to be canceled and discharged all
security deeds or other security instruments encumbering the property and
created by or through Seller, except to the extent Buyer assumes any of the
obligations secured by such instruments, and all judgments which have attached
to and become a lien against the Property by, through or under
Seller. In the event Seller fails to cause such liens and
encumbrances to be paid or released at or prior to Closing, Buyer shall be
entitled to the remedies provided for in A.7.5(c).
24
(g) At
Closing, the Title Insurer shall be prepared to issue a title insurance policy
in accordance with the Title Commitment, with all endorsements reasonably
required by Buyer and with coverage over any “gap” period.

have obtained, at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense, in the Buyer’s own name,
the Licenses, and Seller shall reasonably cooperate with the Buyer in obtaining
such Licenses at or prior to Closing, at no cost to Seller. The Buyer
shall diligently pursue all required Licenses. If any Licenses cannot
be obtained by the Buyer at or prior to the Initial Closing Date, Buyer shall
have the right to extend the Closing as provided for in Section
9.1.
(b) In
the event the regulatory authorities (i) assert that there are violations and
require repairs or alterations to be made to cure such violations, or (ii)
assess fines as a result of operational issues and require such fines to be paid
prior to issuing Licenses to the Buyer or prior to confirming to Buyer that the
Licenses are in place, no material violations exist, and the Property is in good
standing, the Seller’s performing of all such required repairs and alterations
at Seller’s expense and payment of any and all such fines by Seller shall be a
condition to Buyer’s Closing. If any operational changes are required
by such regulatory authorities as a condition to issuing Licenses, Seller’s
implementing such action at Seller’s expense shall be a material obligation and
condition to Closing. If Seller fails to take such foregoing actions,
Buyer shall have the remedy available under Section
11.2(a).
(c) Sections 7.7(a) and
(b) shall survive Closing.
7.8 Financing

29
ARTICLE
X
INDEMNIFICATION
10.1 General. The
rights to indemnification set forth in this ARTICLE X and the
other rights described in this Agreement shall be in addition to all other
rights to monetary damages that any party (or the party’s successors or
permitted assigns) would otherwise have by Applicable Law in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Document; provided, however, that neither
party shall have the right to be compensated more than once for the same
monetary damage.
10.2 Indemnification by
Seller. From and after Closing, Seller shall indemnify,
defend, and hold harmless Buyer, Tenant, and each of their officers, directors,
employees, Affiliates, successors and assigns from and against, and pay or
reimburse each of them for and with respect to, any Loss relating to, arising
out of or resulting from any of the following:
(a) Any
breach by Seller of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or
agreements in this Agreement or any other Document;
(b) The
ownership, operation or control of the Property during the Seller Ownership
Period, including without limitation, any and all liabilities which relate to
events occurring during the Seller Ownership Period, regardless of when they are
asserted or whether such was disclosed to Buyer and regardless of whether such
was a breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant by Seller, except for
(i) Assumed Obligations, and (ii) obligations, indebtedness or liabilities to
the extent of any Adjustment Amount credited to the Buyer; and
(c) Claims
by any other party claiming to have represented Seller as broker or agent in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
10.3 Indemnification by
Buyer. From and after Closing, Buyer shall indemnify, defend
and hold harmless Seller and its officers, directors, employees, agents,
representatives, Affiliates, successors and assigns from and against, and pay or
reimburse each of them for and with respect to any Loss relating to, arising out
of or resulting from any of the following:
(a) Any
material breach by Buyer of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or
agreements in this Agreement or any other Document;
(b) The
Assumed Obligations;
(c) The
ownership, operation or control of the Property during any Buyer Ownership
Period; and
(d) Claims
by any party claiming to have represented Buyer as broker or agent in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
10.4 Administration of
Indemnification. For purposes of administering the
indemnification provisions set forth in Section 10.2 and
Section 10.3,
the following procedure shall apply:
30
(a) Whenever
a claim shall arise for indemnification under this ARTICLE X, the party
entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”)
shall give a reasonably prompt written notice to the party from whom
indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”)
setting forth in reasonable detail, to the extent then available, the facts
concerning the nature of such claim and the basis upon which the Indemnified
Party believes that it is entitled to indemnification hereunder.
(b) In
the event of any claim for indemnification resulting from or in connection with
any claim by a third party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, at its
sole expense, either (i) to participate in defending against such claim or (ii)
to assume the entire defense with counsel which is selected by it and which is
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, provided that no settlement
shall be made and no judgment consented to without the prior written consent of
the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If,
however, (x) the claim, action, suit or proceeding would, if successful, result
in the imposition of damages for which the Indemnifying Party would not be
solely responsible, or (y) representation of both parties by the same counsel
would otherwise be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests
between them, then the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the
entire defense and each party shall be entitled to retain counsel who shall
cooperate with one another in defending against such claim. In the
case of clause (x), the Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to bear only that
portion of the expense of the Indemnified Party’s counsel that is in proportion
to the damages indemnifiable by the Indemnifying Party compared to the total
amount of the third-party claim against the Indemnified Party. In the
case of clause (y), the Indemnifying Party shall pay all costs of defense of
both itself and the actual out-of-pocket costs of the Indemnified
Party.
(c) If
the Indemnifying Party does not choose to defend against a claim by a third
party, the Indemnified Party may defend in such manner as it deems appropriate
or settle the claim (after giving notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party) on
such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate, and the Indemnified
Party shall be entitled to periodic reimbursement from the Indemnifying Party of
defense expenses incurred and prompt indemnification from the Indemnifying Party
in accordance with this ARTICLE
X.
(d) Failure
or delay by an Indemnified Party to give a reasonably prompt notice of any claim
shall not release, waive or otherwise affect an Indemnifying Party’s obligations
with respect to the claim, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party can
demonstrate actual Loss or prejudice as a result of such failure or
delay. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
parties agree that no indemnification right or obligation shall apply to the
extent any such Loss or expense is paid to an Indemnified Party by an insurance
company.
(e) The
right to pursue indemnification as set forth in Sections 10.2(a) (other than
with respect to a breach of the representations contained in Section 4.15) and
10.3(a) shall survive the Closing hereunder for a period of eighteen (18) months
following the Closing, and the right to pursue indemnification as set forth in
all other Sections of this ARTICLE X shall
survive the Closing hereunder indefinitely.
31
(f) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the right to pursue indemnification
as set forth in this ARTICLE X shall be
actionable or payable only if valid claims for Losses, if any, collectively
aggregate more than Fifty Thousand and No/100 U.S. Dollars ($50,000) (the “Floor”); provided, however, that the
foregoing limitation shall not apply in the case of fraud on the part of Buyer,
Seller or any of their respective Affiliates, or to any claims arising under
Section 10.2(a)
(with respect to a breach of the representations contained in Section A.4.15),
Section
10.2(b), Section 10.2(c),
Section
10.3(b),
Section
A.10.3(c) or Section
A.10.3(d)
(none of which shall be limited in any manner whatsoever). In
addition, Buyer agrees to concurrently seek recovery against Seller, under any
insurance policies, the Title Policy and other applicable agreements, and Seller
shall not be liable to Buyer to the extent Buyer’s claim is actually satisfied
from any sums recovered from such insurance policies, Title Policy or other
applicable agreements. FINALLY, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER
PARTY EVER BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WITH RESPECT TO
ANY DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR DOCUMENTS EXECUTED AT
CLOSING OTHER THAN IN THE EVENT OF FRAUD.
ARTICLE
XI

all conditions in ARTICLE VII have not
been met, or as specifically provided for in Sections 7.5, 11.2(a)(i), 12.16, and 12.17; provided, however, that nothing
contained in this Section 11.1(c) shall
limit Seller’s rights pursuant to 11.2 below;
(d) By
Seller if, as of Closing or such earlier date as specified in this Agreement,
all conditions in ARTICLE VII have been
met but the conditions in ARTICLE VIII have not
been met and Buyer defaults on its obligation to close this transaction; provided, however, that nothing
contained in this Section 11.1(d) shall
limit Seller’s rights pursuant to 11.2 below; or
(e) By
Seller or Buyer if a court of competent jurisdiction or other governmental
agency shall have issued an order, decree, or ruling or taken any other action
(which order, decree, or ruling the parties hereto shall use their diligent
efforts to lift), in each case permanently retraining, enjoining, or otherwise
prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or otherwise
determining that the consummation of such transactions would be unlawful, and
such order, decree or ruling shall have become final and
nonappealable.
32
In the
event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 11.1 or
pursuant to any other express provision of this Agreement for any reason other
than a default by the Seller or Buyer hereunder, then (i) this Agreement shall
be of no further force or effect as of the date of delivery of such written
notice of termination, (ii) the Buyer and Seller shall equally share the
cancellation charges, if any, of the Escrow Agent and Title Insurer, and (iii)
no party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than
pursuant to any provision hereof which expressly survives the termination of
this Agreement.
11.2 Remedies upon
Default.
(a) If
Seller defaults on any of Seller’s obligations hereunder, and such default
continues for ten (10) days after written notice thereof specifying such
default, Buyer may serve notice in writing to the Seller in the manner provided
in this Agreement, and either:
|
(i)
|
Terminate
this Agreement, receive from Seller reimbursement of all actual
third-party out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Buyer in pursuing the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and pursue all legal remedies
available at law against Seller for Buyer’s actual damages arising from
Seller’s default hereunder; provided the total amount of such
reimbursement and actual damages shall not exceed $65,000.00; provided, however, that
the foregoing limitation on damages shall not apply in the event of a
breach of Sections 6.6 or
6.7;
or
|
|
(ii)
|
Waive
any such conditions, title objections or defaults and consummate the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement in the same manner as if there
had been no title objections, conditions or defaults without any reduction
in the Purchase Price and without any further claim against the Seller
therefor and, if necessary, pursue an action for specific
performance.
|
(b) If
Buyer defaults on its obligation to close this transaction Seller’s exclusive
remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement, retain the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit
and receive from Seller reimbursement of all actual third-party out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by Seller in pursuing the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and pursue all legal remedies available at law against Buyer for
Seller’s actual damages arising from Buyer’s default hereunder; provided the
total amount of such reimbursement and actual damages shall not exceed
$40,000.00, in addition to the return of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit; provided, however, that the
foregoing limitation on damages shall not apply in the event of a breach of
Sections 6.6 or
6.7.
11.3 Specific
Performance. Seller specifically agrees that Buyer shall be
entitled, in the event of a default by Seller, to enforcement of this Agreement
by a decree of specific performance or injunctive relief requiring Seller to
fulfill its obligations under this Agreement. If Buyer elects to
pursue an action for specific performance, and if Buyer is unable to obtain
specific performance as the result of the actions of Seller or its Affiliates
making specific performance impossible, then Buyer shall be entitled to seek
such other relief to which Buyer may be entitled, including an action of its
actual monetary damages.
11.4 Obligations Upon
Termination. Except as otherwise provided herein, if this
Agreement is terminated, each of the parties shall bear its own costs incurred
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

Agreement shall specify the Subsection of ARTICLE XI pursuant
to which such notice is given. If at the time a party gives a
termination notice, such party is entitled to give such notice pursuant to more
than one Subsection of ARTICLE XI, the
Subsection pursuant to which such notice is given and termination is effected
shall be deemed to be the section specified in such notice provided that the
party giving such notice is at such time entitled to terminate this Agreement
pursuant to the specified section.
11.6 Sole and Exclusive
Remedy. Seller and Buyer each acknowledge and agree that prior
to the Closing, such party’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and
all claims made prior to the Closing for any breach or liability under this
Agreement or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby shall be solely in accordance with, and limited
to, Sections
11.1, 11.2 and 11.3. The
foregoing shall in no manner limit the rights and obligations of the parties
provided in ARTICLE
X from and after the Closing which the parties each acknowledge and agree
constitute each such party’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and
all claims made following the Closing for any breach or liability under this
Agreement. In addition, in no event shall the provisions of this
ARTICLE XI
limit the non-prevailing party’s obligation to pay the prevailing party’s

hereof.
ARTICLE

12.3 Entire
Agreement. This Agreement and the other Documents constitute
the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the
subject matter hereof and supersede any prior negotiations, agreements,
understandings, or arrangements between the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof.
12.4 Binding Effect;
Benefits. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their
respective successors or permitted assigns. Except to the extent
specified herein, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall confer on
any person other than the parties hereto and any Indemnified Party and their
respective successors or permitted assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.
12.5 Assignment. This
Agreement may not be assigned by any party prior to Closing without the written
consent of the Buyer and Seller, which consent may be given or withheld in each
such party’s sole and absolute discretion, except that Buyer may assign this
Agreement and its rights hereunder without the consent of Seller to an Affiliate
of Buyer (a “Permitted
Buyer-Assignee”). In the event of such an assignment to a
Permitted Buyer-Assignee, Buyer shall not be released from any of its duties,
covenants, obligations or representations and warranties under this Agreement
and, from and after any such assignment, Buyer and such Permitted Buyer-Assignee
shall be jointly and severally liable under this Agreement, and from and after
any such assignment, the term “Buyer” shall be deemed to mean such Permitted
Buyer-Assignee under any such assignment.
12.6 Governing
Law. This Agreement shall in all respects be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Texas without regard to
its principles of conflicts of laws. Venue for any dispute shall be
in Bexar County, Texas.
12.7 Amendments and
Waivers. No term or provision of this Agreement may be
amended, waived, discharged, or terminated orally, except by an instrument in
writing signed by Buyer and Seller with respect to any provision contained
herein. Any waiver shall be effective only in accordance with its
express terms and conditions.
12.8 Joint and
Several. If there is more than one Seller hereunder, Seller
shall be jointly and severally liable with the other Seller for performing all
obligations of Seller under this Agreement.
12.9 Severability. Any
provision of this Agreement which is unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as
to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability
without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, the parties hereto hereby waive any provision of
Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect which renders any provision hereof
unenforceable in any respect.
12.10 Headings. The
captions in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not
define or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof.
36
12.11 Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed and accepted in one or more counterparts for the
convenience of the parties, each of which will be deemed an original and all of
which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same
instrument. Delivery of a counterpart hereof via facsimile
transmission or by electronic mail transmission shall be as effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.
12.12 References. All
references in this Agreement to Articles and Sections are to Articles and
Sections contained in this Agreement unless a different document is expressly
specified.
12.13 Seller Disclosure
Letter. The Seller Disclosure Letter delivered by the Seller
to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, and each Schedule and Exhibit comprising
the Seller Disclosure Letter referred to in this Agreement, shall be deemed to
be attached hereto and incorporated by reference even though it may be
maintained separately from this Agreement or completed after the Effective Date
so long as it is acknowledged as a Schedule or an Exhibit to this Agreement by
the parties hereto as of Closing. Any item disclosed hereunder
(including in the Schedules and Exhibits hereto) shall be deemed disclosed for
all purposes hereof irrespective of the specific representation or warranty to
which it is explicitly referenced.
12.14 Attorneys’
Fees. In the event either party brings an action to enforce or
interpret any of the provisions of this Agreement, the “prevailing party” in
such action shall, in addition to any other recovery, be entitled to its
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses arising from such action and any appeal
or any bankruptcy action related thereto, whether or not such matter proceeds to
trial. For purposes of this Section 12.14, “prevailing party”
shall mean, in the case of a person asserting a claim, such person is successful
in obtaining substantially all of the relief sought, and in the case of a person
defending against or responding to a claim, such person is successful in denying
substantially all of the relief sought or, in the event of the dismissal of any
action brought with respect to this Agreement for any reason other than
settlement thereof, the nondismissing party shall be the “prevailing
party”.
12.15 Section 1031 Exchange/Tax
Planning. If requested by either Buyer or Seller, the other
party shall cooperate in permitting the other to accomplish an exchange under
Section 1031 of the Code or to restructure this transaction in a way which is
more advantageous for tax purposes; provided, however, that such
exchange or restructuring shall not modify any underlying financial or other
material terms of this Agreement, shall not delay the Closing, shall not relieve
Buyer or Seller of any liability for their respective obligations hereunder, and
shall not result in any other party incurring any greater cost or expense that
it otherwise would if any such exchange had not been elected.
37
12.16 Casualty. The
risk of any loss or damage to the Property by fire or other casualty before the
Closing shall continue to be borne by Seller. Seller shall promptly
give Buyer written notice of any fire or other casualty (in any event within
five (5) days after Seller first has knowledge of the occurrence of same), which
notice shall include a description thereof in reasonable detail and an estimate
of the cost of time to repair. If (i) any portion of the Property is
damaged by fire or casualty after the Effective Date and is not repaired and
restored substantially to its original condition prior to Closing, or (ii) at
the time of Closing the estimated cost of repairs as to the Property is ONE
HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS ($100,000.00) or less, as determined by an
independent adjuster selected by Seller, Buyer shall be required to purchase the
Property in accordance with this Agreement, and Buyer shall, at Buyer’s option,
either: (x) receive a credit at Closing of the estimated cost or repairs to the
Property, as determined by the aforesaid independent adjuster, plus any
reasonably estimated lost revenue following Closing arising from such fire or
casualty; or (y) receive from Seller at Closing (I) an assignment, without
representation of warranty by or recourse against Seller, of all insurance
claims and proceeds with respect thereto, plus (II) an amount equal to Seller’s
insurance deductible. If the estimated cost of repairing such damage
to the Property is more than ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS ($100,000.00), as
determined by such independent adjuster, Buyer may, at its sole option and as
its sole remedy with respect to such casualty (but without waiving any of
Buyer’s rights hereunder, including, without limitation its rights in A.ARTICLE XI, arising
as a result of a Seller default): (x) terminate this Agreement by notice to
Seller on or before the earlier of the Closing or the tenth (10th) day
after receipt of such notice described above, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money
Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and, except as otherwise provided herein, no
party shall have any further liability to the party under this Agreement; or (y)
proceed to Closing as provided in this Section
12.16. The parties’ obligations, if any, under this Section 12.16 shall
survive the expiration or any termination of this Agreement.
12.17 Condemnation. The
risk of any loss or damage to the Property by condemnation before the Closing
shall continue to be borne by Seller. In the event any condemnation
proceeding is commenced or threatened, Seller shall promptly give Buyer written
notice thereof (in any event within five (5) days after Seller first has
knowledge of the occurrence of same), together with such reasonable details with
respect thereto as to which Seller may have knowledge. If, prior to
Closing, there is a material taking by eminent domain at the Property, and as
Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to such condemnation (but without
waiving any of Buyer’s rights hereunder, including, without limitation its
rights in A.ARTICLE
XI, arising as a result of a Seller default), either: (i) terminate this
Agreement by notice to Seller on or before the earlier of the Closing or the
tenth (10th) day
after receipt of such notice described above, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money
shall be returned to Buyer and, except as otherwise provided herein, no party
shall have any further liability to the party under this Agreement; or (ii)
proceed to Closing. If Buyer elects to proceed and to consummate the
purchase despite said material taking, or if there is less than a material
taking prior to Closing, there shall be no reduction in or abatement of the
Purchase Price and Buyer shall be required to purchase the Property in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and Seller shall assign to Buyer,
without representation of warranty by or recourse against Seller, all of
Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any award made or to be made in the
condemnation proceeding (in which event Buyer shall have the right to
participate in the adjustment and settlement of any insurance claim relating to
said damage). For the purpose of this Section 12.17, the
term “material”
shall mean any taking of in excess of five percent (5%) of the square footage of
the Property or ten percent (10%) of the Real Property associated with the
Property. The parties’ obligations, if any, under this Section 12.17 shall
survive the expiration or any termination of this Agreement.
12.18 Limited
Liability. No past, present, or future member, partner,
shareholder, director, officer of employee of any party to this Agreement shall
have any liability or obligation of any nature whatsoever in connection with or
under this Agreement or Document contemplated hereby or in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any such other
agreement.
38
12.19 Survival of Defined
Terms. Where this Agreement provides that a term or provision
shall survive the Closing or the expiration or earlier termination of this
Agreement, any defined terms contained in ARTICLE I that are
used in such surviving term or provision shall also survive.
12.20 Time of
Essence. Time shall be of the essence with respect to all
matters contemplated by this Agreement. If the expiration of any time period set
forth herein falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, such time period
shall be deemed to expire on the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or
legal holiday. The last day of any period of time described
herein shall be deemed to end at 5:00 p.m., local Austin, Texas
time.
12.21 No Third-Party
Beneficiary. The provisions of this Agreement and of the
documents to be executed and delivered at Closing are and will be for the
benefit of the Buyer and Seller only and are not for the benefit of any third
party; and, accordingly, no third party shall have the right to enforce the
provisions of this Agreement or of the documents to be executed and delivered at
Closing.
12.22 WAIVER OF JURY
TRIAL. EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY
OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD
TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY
CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THIS WAIVER
OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY EACH PARTY, AND
IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH
THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. ANY PARTY IS
HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS
CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY EACH PARTY HERETO.
