6

Seller and Purchaser further understand that certain banking instruments such as, but not limited to, repurchase agreements and letters of credit are not covered at all by FDIC insurance.

Except for such costs and expenses, no fee or charge shall be due or payable to Escrow Agent for its services under this Agreement.

(i) Escrow Agent shall not be responsible or liable in any manner whatsoever for the correctness, genuineness or validity of any document or instrument, or any signature thereon, deposited with or delivered to Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement. Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any such document or instrument, which Escrow Agent in good faith believes to be genuine and duly authorized, without investigation as to the correctness, genuineness or validity thereof. Escrow Agent shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against Escrow Agent.

(b) If Seller or Purchaser fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement; or
(c) If any Insolvency Event shall occur with respect to Seller, Lessee, or Purchaser.

(a) The non-defaulting party may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the defaulting party and recover from the defaulting party all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the non-defaulting party hereunder (including without limitation, the Transaction Costs, and the reasonable and verified Professional Fees), in which event neither party will have any further obligations or liability hereunder, except for those obligations expressly stated to survive such termination; or
(b) The non-defaulting party may waive the Event of Default and proceed with the Closing.
10.3. Representation or Warranty Untrue. Prior to Closing, if any representation or warranty of any party is discovered to have been false, in any material respect, when made, then such discovery shall be an event of default by the party that made the false representation or warranty and the non-defaulting party shall have all of the rights set forth in Article 10. However, if the non-defaulting party consummates the Closing with knowledge of such false representation or warranty, such non-defaulting party shall be conclusively deemed to have waived such default and accepted such uncured condition, in which event the non-defaulting party shall have no rights or remedies under this Agreement regarding such default and such representation and warranty shall automatically be deemed amended to fully and accurately state the actual facts and conditions then known or existing so that no fact or condition first discovered or notice received or events occurring after the Effective Date can or will constitute a breach by the defaulting party of any of the warranties or representations.
10.4. Financing Condition. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall not be obligated to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, unless and until Purchaser has obtained debt financing for its acquisition of the Property at or prior to Closing on such terms and conditions which are acceptable to Purchaser in its sole discretion.

In no event will Seller be liable for, nor will Purchaser seek, any consequential, indirect or punitive damages; and in no event will any claim for a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller be actionable or payable if the breach in question results from or is based on a condition, state of facts or other matter which was known to Purchaser prior to the Closing or which was contained in the Due Diligence Materials. This provision shall survive Closing.
11.16. No Personal Liability. Any liability for participation in this transaction shall remain with Purchaser and Seller only and in no event shall there be any personal liability on the part of any shareholder, director, officer, manager, member, partner or employee of the parties, their partners or their constituent members or entities.

As used herein, the term “Release” shall mean any press release or public statement with respect to the transaction or this Agreement.
11.22. Zoning. Purchaser shall have the right without the consent of Seller to request a zoning confirmation letter or certificate from the City or County in which the Property is located.
