If the appeal is successfully culminated either prior to or after the proposed sale transaction, and Purchaser would benefit from such appeal for the current or subsequent tax year, then Purchaser shall pay a pro-rata share portion of the costs and expenses incurred by Seller in connection with the appeal.
7.5 Leasing Costs.

00. FAILURE OF CONDITIONS PRECEDENT; DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.
10.1 Failure of Conditions Precedent. If any of the conditions precedent stated in Article 6 have not occurred or been satisfied on or before the Date of Closing, Purchaser or Seller may: (a) terminate this Agreement by written notice to the appropriate party on or before the Date of Closing, in which event the appropriate party shall be entitled to receive disbursement of the Deposit or (b) to waive such conditions precedent and proceed to Closing.
10.2 Purchaser Default. If Purchaser is in default of one or more of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement other than a failure to timely close, then Seller may give notice to Purchaser (with a copy to Title Company) specifying the nature of the default. Purchaser shall have five (5) business days after receiving that notice, but in no event beyond the Date of Closing, within which to cure that default. If Purchaser fails to cure that default within that period, then Seller’s sole remedy for such default shall be to terminate this Agreement by giving notice of such termination to Purchaser (with a copy to Title Company) and receive the Deposit as liquidated damages. If Seller does so terminate this Agreement, then Title Company shall pay the Deposit to Seller.
10.3 Liquidated Damages. SELLER AND PURCHASER AGREE THAT PAYMENT OF THE DEPOSIT TO SELLER UNDER THIS SECTION 10 SHALL BE AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND NOT AS A PENALTY.
10.4 Seller Default.

Purchaser specifically waives any and all right (i) to file or record any lis pendens or any other lien or encumbrance against the Property; (ii) to specific performance or other equitable relief; or (iii) to consequential or punitive damages.
10.4.1 Waiver of Default. If Purchaser does not duly notify Seller of the default and does not give Seller a notice of termination hereunder, then (i) the default shall be treated as waived by Purchaser and (ii) at Closing, Purchaser shall accept the Property subject to the default without any reduction in the Purchase Price and without any Claims against Seller on account of the default.
10.5 Termination. Upon any termination of this Agreement pursuant to any right of a party to terminate set forth in this Agreement, (a) the Deposit shall be paid over to the party entitled to the same, (b) all documents deposited by Purchaser and Seller into escrow shall be returned by Title Company to the party depositing the same, and (c) all copies of all Property Documents provided to Purchaser by Seller shall be returned to Seller, whereupon the parties will have no continuing liability to each other unless otherwise expressly stated in any provision of this Agreement.
10.6 Attorneys’ Fees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that either Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall bring a lawsuit against the other party for breach of such party’s obligations under this Agreement, the losing party shall pay the prevailing party’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with such litigation, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees. The “prevailing party” shall be determined by the court hearing such matter.

“SUBJECT TO”
This Addendum to Purchase and Sale Agreement (this “Addendum”), is entered into by and between Seller and Purchaser(s), who are parties to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of the date last signed by the parties (the “Agreement”).
This is a reserve auction and all Properties have a reserve price (“Reserve Price”), meaning the Seller of each Property can accept or reject any bid and has also established an unpublished, minimum selling price. The starting bid is not the Reserve Price. In order to become the Winning Bidder for a Property, a Bidder must meet or exceed the Reserve Price and have the highest bid, and such highest bid must be accepted by the Seller. Purchaser(s) and Seller agree that Seller may terminate the Agreement, in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion, in the event the Seller does not approve the sale. Seller shall make such election within fifteen (15) business days (excludes weekends and holidays) following the Effective Date of the Agreement (as that term is defined in the Agreement) unless extended in writing by Seller (the “Approval Period”) by electronic mail, overnight courier (FedEx, UPS or USPS Express Mail) or registered mail (return receipt requested) (“Notice”), with said Notice deemed given upon the date of sending of such Notice. If Seller or Seller’s designee does not provide Notice within the Approval Period then the Agreement shall be deemed rejected without further action. If accepted, Seller or Seller’s designee will provide written notice within the Approval Period to Purchaser(s).
If Seller elects NOT to approve the transaction and elects to reject the Agreement and terminate the escrow and transaction, Title Company (as that term is defined in the Agreement) shall return to Purchaser(s) any Xxxxxxx Money Deposit given by Purchaser(s) to Title Company, such return contingent upon the Title Company’s confirmation of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit having been received as “good funds” and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Auctioneer is authorized to provide the necessary instruction to the Title Company directing the Title Company to return to Purchaser(s) any Xxxxxxx Money Deposit given by Purchaser(s) to Title Company and the Title Company shall release such monies to Purchaser(s) pursuant to this Addendum. Effective upon release of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit to Purchaser(s), the Agreement and the transaction contemplated thereby shall be cancelled and Purchaser and Seller shall be relieved of any further liability and/or obligation to each other under the Agreement. Purchaser(s) agrees to release Seller, Seller’s Broker, Auctioneer, and the Title Company from and against any and all liabilities in connection with the transaction and the Agreement. Purchaser grants Seller the unilateral right to execute cancellation instructions in the event that Seller elects to cancel and terminate the transaction pursuant to the terms of this Addendum.
If Seller elects to approve and confirm the transaction, then the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the Date of Closing shall be in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.
