3.4.2 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be permitted to perform any invasive tests on the Property (including, without limitation, a Phase II environmental study of the Property) without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole discretion. Further, Seller shall have the right, without limitation, to disapprove any and all, tests, investigations and other matters that in Seller’s reasonable judgment could result in any injury to the Property or breach of any contract, or expose Seller to any Losses or violation of applicable law, or otherwise adversely affect the Property or Seller’s interest therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, typical property condition report inspections, survey field work, and phase I environmental report field work shall be deemed approved by Seller and the foregoing sentence shall not apply to such investigations. Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to minimize disruption to Tenants in connection with Purchaser’s or its Consultants’ activities pursuant to this Section 3.4.2. No consent by Seller to any such activity shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by Seller or assumption of liability or risk by Seller. Purchaser hereby agrees to restore, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, the Property to the same condition existing immediately prior to Purchaser’s exercise of its rights pursuant to this Article III. If this Agreement is terminated, unless such termination was by reason of Seller’s default pursuant to the terms and conditions contained herein, Purchaser shall, upon written request by Xxxxxx and receipt of reimbursement by Seller to Purchaser for the cost of same promptly deliver to Seller copies of all non-privileged Third-Party Reports prepared on behalf of Purchaser with respect to the Property without any representation or warranty as to the contents of such reports.

4
reasonably require, including, without limitation, coverage (by contractual liability endorsement) of Purchaser’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement. Purchaser shall deliver proof of the insurance coverage required pursuant to this Section 3.4.2 to Seller (in the form of a certificate of insurance) prior to the earlier to occur of (i) Purchaser’s or Consultants’ entry onto the Property, or (ii) five (5) days after the Effective Date.
3.4.3 The terms and provisions of Section 3.4 shall survive Closing and any termination of this Agreement.
3.5 Property Materials.
3.5.1 On or prior to the Effective Date, and to the extent the same exist and are in Seller’s possession or reasonable control (subject to Section 3.5.2), Xxxxxx agrees to make the documents set forth on Schedule 3.5 (together with any other documents or information provided by Seller or its agents to Purchaser with respect to the Property, the “Materials”) available at the Property for review and copying by Purchaser at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense. In the alternative, at Seller’s option and within the foregoing time period, Seller may deliver some or all of the Materials to Purchaser, or make the same available to Purchaser on a secure web site (Purchaser agrees that any item to be delivered by Seller under this Agreement shall be deemed delivered to the extent available to Purchaser on such secured web site). To the extent that Purchaser determines that any of the Materials have not been made available or delivered to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 3.5.1, Purchaser shall notify Seller and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the same to Purchaser within five (5) Business Days after such notification is received by Seller; provided, however, that under no circumstances will the Feasibility Period be extended and Purchaser’s sole remedy will be to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 3.2.
3.5.2 In providing the Materials to Purchaser, other than Seller’s Representations, Seller makes no representation or warranty, express, written, oral, statutory, or implied, as to the truth, accuracy, completeness or otherwise, and all such representations and warranties are hereby expressly excluded and disclaimed. All Materials are provided for informational purposes only and, if this Agreement is terminated for any reason, Purchaser shall certify in writing to Seller the destruction of such Materials, other than those subject to Purchaser’s file retention policy, within five (5) Business Days of Seller’s written request. Recognizing that the Materials delivered or made available by Seller pursuant to this Agreement may not be complete or constitute all of such documents which are in Seller’s possession or control, but are those that are readily and reasonably available to Seller, Purchaser shall not in any way be entitled to rely upon the completeness or accuracy of the Materials and will instead in all instances rely exclusively on its own Inspections and Consultants with respect to all matters which it deems relevant to its decision to acquire, own and operate the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained herein to the contrary, and as an accommodation to Purchaser (and with no liability to Seller of any kind unless Seller knew such representation to be untrue when made), Seller (x) represents that to Seller’s actual knowledge, none of the Materials provided by Seller to Purchaser contains information that could reasonably be expected to constitute material non-public information regarding a publicly held company and (y) agrees that it will provide prompt written notice to Purchaser if it actually knows or suspects that the foregoing representation is no longer true at any time during the term of this Agreement prior to Closing and shall provide Purchaser the option as to whether it wants to receive such information before providing the same.
5
3.6 Property Contracts. At any time but no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the then scheduled Closing Date, Purchaser may from time-to-time deliver written notice to Seller (a “Property Contracts Notice”) specifying any Property Contracts which Purchaser desires to terminate at the Closing (the “Terminated Contracts”). Purchaser shall, at Closing, assume all of the Property Contracts which are listed on the Property Contracts List (or which Purchaser consents to after the Effective Date) other than the Terminated Contracts (the “Assumed Contracts”). For each Property Contract, Seller shall deliver a Vendor Notice at Closing. To the extent that any Property Contract to be assigned to Purchaser is either (a) assignable but requires the applicable vendor to consent to the assignment and assumption of the Property Contract by Seller to Purchaser, or (b) not assignable (either by its terms or applicable law), then, prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for obtaining from each applicable vendor a consent to such assignment and assumption. At Purchaser’s request, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to obtain any vendor consent. From and after Closing, Purchaser shall indemnify Seller for all Losses of any kind arising out of (i) Terminated Contracts in connection with the termination of such Terminated Contracts and any obligations that accrue under such Terminated Contracts from and after the Closing and (ii) Assumed Contracts in connection with the assumption of such Assumed Contracts and any obligations that accrue under such Assumed Contracts from and after the Closing. From and after Closing, Seller shall indemnify Purchaser for all Losses of any kind arising out of (i) any obligations that accrue under such Terminated Contracts prior to Closing and (ii) any obligations that accrue under such Assumed Contracts prior to Closing. If there are any definite amounts for which Seller or Purchaser is responsible pursuant to the two preceding sentences and such amounts are known at Closing, then the applicable Party shall pay such known amounts at Closing.
ARTICLE IV
TITLE
4.1. Title Documents. Prior to the Effective Date, Purchaser has ordered a standard form commitment or preliminary title report (“Title Commitment”) to provide an American Land Title Association owner’s title insurance policy for the Property, using the current policy jacket customarily provided by Title Insurer, in an amount equal to the Purchase Price (the “Title Policy”), together with copies of all instruments identified as exceptions therein (together with the Title Commitment, referred to herein as the “Title Documents”). Purchaser shall promptly deliver a copy of same to Seller. Purchaser shall be solely responsible for payment of the basic premium for the Title Policy and all other costs relating to procurement of the Title Commitment, the Title Policy, and any requested endorsements.
4.2 Survey. Subject to Section 3.5.2, prior to the Effective Date, Seller has delivered to Purchaser the existing survey of the Property (the “Existing Survey”). Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that delivery of the Existing Survey is subject to Section 3.5.2. Purchaser may, at its sole cost and expense, order a new or updated survey of the Property either before or after the Effective Date (such new or updated survey, together with the Existing Survey, is referred to herein as the “Survey”). Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the cost and expense of the preparation of any new or updated survey requested pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.2.
6
4.3 Objection and Response Process. On or before June 27, 2024 (the “Objection Deadline”), Purchaser gave written notice (the “Objection Notice”) to the attorneys for Seller of any matter set forth in the Title Documents and the Survey to which Purchaser objects (the “Objections”). On July 2, 2024, Seller gave written notice (the “Response Notice”) to Purchaser of those Objections which Seller is willing to cure. Seller and Purchaser shall each have the right to extend Closing for up to 30 days in order to allow Seller to cure any Objections that Seller has agreed to cure. As of the date hereof Purchaser has accepted the Title Documents and Survey with the resolution, if any, of the Objections only as set forth in the Response Notice and without any reduction or abatement of the Purchase Price. If Seller fails to cure any Objections which Seller agreed to cure in the Response Notice by the Closing Date (as same may be adjourned by Seller pursuant to this Section 4.3 or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement), then Purchaser may, as its exclusive remedy, either (a) accept the Title Documents and Survey without resolution of such Objections without any reduction or abatement of the Purchase Price, or (b) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser (subject to Purchaser’s obligations under Section 3.5.2).
4.4 Permitted Exceptions. The Deed delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to the following, all of which shall be deemed “Permitted Exceptions”:
4.4.1 All matters shown in the Title Documents and the Survey, other than (a) those Objections, if any, which Seller has agreed to cure pursuant to the Response Notice under Section 4.3, (b) mechanics’ liens, (c) taxes due and payable prior to Closing, (d) the standard exception regarding the rights of parties in possession, which shall be limited to those parties in possession pursuant to the Leases, and (e) the standard exception pertaining to taxes and assessments, which shall be limited to taxes and assessments payable in the year in which the Closing occurs but which are not yet due and payable and taxes and assessments for subsequent years;
4.4.2 All Leases;
4.4.3 Applicable zoning and governmental regulations and ordinances;
4.4.4 Any defects in or objections to title to the Property, or title exceptions or encumbrances, arising by, through or under Purchaser; and
4.4.5 Any Objections set forth in the Objection Notice except to the extent Seller has agreed to cure such Objections in the Response Notice.
4.5 Subsequently Disclosed Exceptions. If at any time after the expiration of the Feasibility Period, any update to the Title Commitment discloses any additional item that materially adversely affects title to the Property which was not disclosed on any version of or update to the Title Commitment delivered to Purchaser prior to the Effective Date (the “New Exception”), Purchaser shall have a period of five (5) Business Days from the date of its receipt of such update (the “New Exception Review Period”) to review and notify Seller in writing of Purchaser’s approval or disapproval of the New Exception. If Purchaser disapproves of the New Exception, Seller may, in Seller’s sole discretion, notify Purchaser as to whether it is willing to
7
cure the New Exception. If Seller elects to cure the New Exception, Seller shall be entitled to reasonable adjournment of the Closing Date to cure the New Exception. If Seller fails to deliver a notice to Purchaser within three (3) days after the expiration of the New Exception Review Period, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the New Exception. If Purchaser is dissatisfied with Seller’s response, or lack thereof, Purchaser may, as its exclusive remedy elect either: (a) to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser or (b) to waive the New Exception and proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in which event Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the New Exception. If Purchaser fails to notify Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing sentence within six (6) days after the expiration of the New Exception Review Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waive any objections to the New Exception.
4.6 Purchaser Financing. Purchaser assumes full responsibility to obtain the funds required for settlement, and Purchaser’s acquisition of such funds shall not be a contingency to the Closing.
ARTICLE V
CLOSING

5.2.6 Seller’s counterpart signature to the closing statement prepared by Title Insurer.
5.2.7 A title affidavit in form attached hereto as Exhibit I; provided however, that Seller shall not be obligated to provide a title affidavit or an indemnity form addressing the pre-printed exceptions related to the Survey if Purchaser has not provided a new or updated Survey to Title Insurer as referenced in Section 4.2.

5.4 Closing Prorations and Adjustments.
5.4.1 General. All normal and customarily proratable items, including, without limitation, collected rents, operating expenses, personal property taxes, and expenses related to the Association shall be prorated as of the Closing Date, Seller being charged or credited, as appropriate, for all of the same attributable to the period up to the Closing Date (and credited for any amounts paid by Seller attributable to the period on or after the Closing Date, if assumed by Purchaser) and Purchaser being responsible for, and credited or charged, as the case may be, for all of the same attributable to the period on and after the Closing Date. Seller shall prepare a proration schedule (the “Proration Schedule”) of the adjustments described in this Section 5.4 for Purchaser’s review at least three (3) Business Days prior to Closing. Such adjustments shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller (if the prorations result in a net credit to Seller) or by Seller to Purchaser (if the prorations result in a net credit by Purchaser), by increasing or reducing the cash to be paid by Purchaser at Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event shall Seller and Purchaser prorate any items that are paid by Tenants in accordance with their applicable Leases directly to any third party.
5.4.2 Other. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 5.4, Seller and Purchaser shall prorate all other items of revenue and expenses associated with the Property as of the Closing Date on an accrual basis (with Purchaser to be charged for such expenses and credited for such revenue for the day of Closing) based on available information and in accordance with the customs for the closing of commercial real estate transactions in Georgia.
5.4.3 Utilities. The final readings and final xxxxxxxx for utilities will be made if possible as of the day before the Closing Date, in which case Seller shall pay all such bills and no proration shall be made at the Closing with respect to utility bills. Otherwise, a proration shall be made based upon the parties’ reasonable good faith estimate. Seller shall be entitled to the return of any deposit(s) posted by it with any utility company, and Seller shall notify each utility company serving the Property to terminate Seller’s account, effective as of noon on the Closing Date. Alternatively, Seller may elect at Closing to leave any deposits posted by it with any utility company and Seller shall receive a credit for same at Closing. This Section 5.4.3 shall apply only to the extent the expenses contemplated herein are paid by Seller instead of by Xxxxxxx.
5.4.4 Real Estate Taxes. Any real estate ad valorem or similar taxes for the Property, or any installment of assessments payable in installments which installment is payable in the calendar year of Closing (the “Tax Expense”), shall be prorated as of the Closing Date, based upon actual days involved. The proration of real property taxes shall be based upon the assessed valuation and tax rate figures for the year in which the Closing occurs to the extent the same are available; provided, however, that in the event that actual figures (whether for the assessed value of the Property or for the tax rate) for the year of Closing are not available at the
11
Closing Date, the proration shall be made using figures from the preceding year. After receipt of a final bill for the year of Closing, Purchaser shall promptly prepare and present to Seller a calculation of the re-proration of the Tax Expense, based upon the actual amount of such Tax Expense charged for the year or other applicable fiscal period. The parties shall make the appropriate adjusting payment between them within thirty (30) days after presentment to Seller of Purchaser’s calculation and appropriate back-up information. Purchaser shall provide Seller with appropriate backup materials related to the calculation. This Section 5.4.4 shall apply only to the extent the expenses contemplated herein are paid by Xxxxxx instead of directly by Tenants to the taxing authority.
5.4.5 Intentionally omitted.
5.4.6 Leases.
5.4.6.1 All collected rent (whether fixed monthly rentals, additional rentals, escalation rentals, retroactive rentals, operating cost pass-throughs or other sums and charges payable by Tenants under the Leases (except as set forth in Section 5.4.6.2)), income and expenses from any portion of the Property shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall receive all collected rent and income attributable to dates on and after the Closing Date. Seller shall receive all collected rent and income attributable to dates prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no prorations shall be made in relation to either (a) non-delinquent rents which have not been collected as of the Closing Date, or (b) delinquent rents existing, if any, as of the Closing Date (the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) referred to herein as the “Uncollected Rents”). In adjusting for Uncollected Rents, no adjustments shall be made in Seller’s favor for rents which have accrued and are unpaid as of the Closing Date, but Purchaser shall pay Seller Seller’s prorated portion of such accrued Uncollected Rents as and when collected by Purchaser. Purchaser’s collection of rents shall be applied, first, towards current rent due and owing under the Leases, second, towards delinquent rents due to Purchaser, and, third, towards Uncollected Rents. Xxxxxxxxx agrees to bill Tenants of the Property for all Uncollected Rents for a period of six (6) months following Closing and take commercially reasonable steps to collect such Uncollected Rents (without any obligation to institute or threaten legal proceedings). Seller shall not have the right from and after Closing to demand payment of and to collect Uncollected Rents owed to Seller by any Tenants.
5.4.6.2 Certain of the Leases contain tenant obligations to pay for taxes, common area expenses, operating expenses and/or additional charges of any other nature relating to the Property and/or certain portions thereof (collectively, “Charges”). Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that Charges which Seller has heretofore collected from Tenants at the Property for the calendar year of Closing (up to the Closing Date) (“Seller’s Reconciliation Period”), have not yet been reconciled with Tenants to the extent Seller’s recovery of such expenses from Tenants for such period exceed or was less than the actual amount of such expenses for such period (the “Tenant Reconciliation”). In connection with the Tenant Reconciliation, the parties agree that (i) within thirty (30) days after Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser the data reasonably supporting the Charges Seller collected from Tenants during Seller’s Reconciliation Period and the amount of Charges actually paid by Seller during Seller’s Reconciliation Period, and (ii) upon written request
12
of either party, on or before April 30 of the calendar year following Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for preparing the final Tenant Reconciliation (subject to Seller’s reasonable approval with respect to Seller’s Reconciliation Period) strictly in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Leases and, to the extent applicable, either reimbursing or billing tenants accordingly. If the Tenant Reconciliation for Seller’s Reconciliation Period shows that amounts collected during Seller’s Reconciliation Period were more than the amount of charges actually paid by Seller during Seller’s Reconciliation Period, then Seller shall pay to Purchaser within ten (10) days following receipt of the final Tenant Reconciliation the amount of the overage, which amount shall be disbursed to the applicable tenants by Purchaser and Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against any claims made by any Tenants for such overage amounts once such payment has been made by Seller to Purchaser. If it is determined that any Tenant has underpaid to Seller any portion of the Charges for Seller’s Reconciliation Period, Purchaser shall promptly pay to Seller the amount of any under-payment of such Charges from such Tenant to the extent of any under-payment of such Charges has in fact been collected from the applicable Tenants. The agreements of Seller and Purchaser set forth herein shall survive the Closing.
5.4.6.3 Percentage rent for Tenants which has not become due and payable by the day before the Closing Date shall be allocated equally over the applicable lease year in which Closing occurs, prorated based on the number of days in such lease year prior to the Closing Date, and paid by Purchaser to Seller outside of escrow within five (5) Business Days after receipt by Purchaser from the applicable Tenant. Within thirty (30) days after receipt, Purchaser shall provide Seller with copies of the applicable Tenant’s final gross sales reports for the lease year, and Purchaser shall grant Seller reasonable access to such party’s percentage rent records for each Tenant’s lease year. No later than April 30, 2025, Purchaser shall notify Seller as to whether any percentage rent was paid which is allocated to the lease year in which Closing occurred and Purchaser shall initiate any necessary proration of such percentage rent. If Seller has received payments of percentage rent based on any applicable lease year in which Closing occurs, in excess of Seller’s share as calculated as set forth above in this Section 5.4.6.3, it shall promptly pay such excess to Purchaser.
5.4.6.4 Seller shall be responsible for the payment of all Tenant Inducement Costs and Leasing Commissions that are required to be paid as a result of any Lease, or any amendment to a Lease, that (X) was signed by Seller prior to the Effective Date or (Y) results from Preapproved Lease Modifications prior to Closing, but expressly excluding each of the following which shall be Purchaser’s responsibility: (i) any refurbishment allowance or similar Tenant Inducement Cost or Leasing Commissions that may become payable pursuant to the express terms of such a Lease or amendment if the tenant thereunder exercises subsequent to the Effective Date a renewal, extension, expansion or similar option thereunder; and (ii) any Leasing Commissions that Purchaser obligates itself to pay to its broker or a tenant’s broker with respect to any such renewal, extension, expansion or similar option. Seller shall have no obligation to Purchaser for the payment of any other Tenant Inducement Costs or Leasing Commissions, including, without limitation, any Tenant Inducement Costs or Leasing Commissions payable with respect to any new Lease or Lease amendment entered into after the Effective Date other than with respect to the Preapproved
13
Lease Modifications. If any Leasing Commission or Tenant Inducement Cost the payment of which is Seller’s responsibility, as provided above, has not been paid by Closing, then Purchaser will receive a credit at Closing for the unpaid amount. If before Closing Seller pays any Leasing Commission or Tenant Inducement Cost required to be paid before Closing but the payment of which is Purchaser’s responsibility (such as a Leasing Commission due upon execution of a new Lease other than a Preapproved Lease Modification after the Effective Date), then Seller will receive a credit from Purchaser at Closing for the amount so paid. For the purposes hereof, “Tenant Inducement Costs” shall mean (i) any out-of-pocket payments required under a Lease to be paid by the landlord thereunder to or for the benefit of the tenant thereunder which is in the nature of a tenant inducement, including, without limitation, tenant improvement costs (whether paid by the landlord to the tenant as a cash allowance or incurred by the landlord in the performance of such tenant improvements), lease buyout costs, and moving, design and refurbishment allowances and (ii) solely with respect to any Preapproved Lease Modifications executed by Seller, so-called “downtime rent” (i.e., base rent and NNN pass-through expenses) attributable to the period from the Closing Date through the rent commencement date under the Preapproved Lease Modifications, as reasonably calculated by Seller and Purchaser at Closing and the loss of income resulting from any free rental period during the current term (or initial term if the term has not yet commenced) of such Lease that is not contingent on either the exercise of any renewal, expansion or other option by the Tenant thereunder. The term “Tenant Inducement Costs” shall not include loss of income resulting from any free rental period except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, it being agreed that Seller shall bear the loss resulting from any other free rental period until the Closing Date and that Purchaser shall bear the loss from and after the Closing. The term “Leasing Commissions” shall mean any brokerage commission, fee or other compensation owing in connection with any Lease. For the avoidance of doubt, the Tenant Inducement Costs for [omitted] shall include $[omitted], which is equal to the difference between full rent and the rent being paid during the first [omitted] months of the term of that Lease, and the Tenant Inducement Costs for [omitted] shall include $[omitted], which is equal to the difference between full rent and the rent being paid during the first [omitted] of the terms of that Lease and Seller shall credit Purchaser at Closing for any such Tenant Inducement Costs that remain outstanding at Closing.
5.4.6.5 At Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount (the “Tenant Security Deposit Balance”) equal to: (i) the received and unapplied balance of all cash (or cash equivalent) Tenant Deposits, including, but not limited to, security, damage, pet or other refundable deposits paid by any of Tenants to secure their respective obligations under the Leases, together, in all cases, with any interest payable to Tenants thereunder as may be required by their respective Lease or state law, less (ii) any and all amounts of Tenant Deposits that Seller retains to offset Uncollected Rents, provided that Seller has properly notified Tenant pursuant to their respective Lease. Any cash (or cash equivalents) held by Seller which constitutes the Tenant Security Deposit Balance shall be retained by Seller in exchange for the foregoing credit against the Purchase Price and shall not be transferred by Seller pursuant to this Agreement (or any of the documents delivered at Closing), but the obligation with respect to the Tenant Security Deposit Balance nonetheless shall be assumed by Purchaser. The Tenant Security Deposit Balance shall not include any non-refundable deposits or fees paid by Tenants to Seller,
14
either pursuant to the Leases or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any security deposits held by Seller are in the forms of letters of credit, Seller will reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in order to assign its interest in the letters of credit to Purchaser contemporaneously with Closing; provided, however, that any and all transfer (or similar) fees required to be paid in connection with any assignment shall be paid by Purchaser to the extent such fees are not otherwise paid by the applicable Tenant.
5.4.7 Insurance. No proration shall be made in relation to insurance premiums and insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser. Seller shall have the risk of loss of the Property until 11:59 p.m. the day prior to the Closing Date (the “Risk of Loss Transfer”), after which time the risk of loss shall pass to Purchaser and Purchaser shall be responsible for obtaining its own insurance thereafter.
5.4.8 Employees. All of Seller’s and Xxxxxx’s manager’s on-site employees shall have their employment at the Property terminated as of the Closing Date.
5.4.9 Closing Costs. Purchaser shall pay (i) intentionally omitted, (ii) the basic premium for the Title Policy and all other costs relating to procurement of the Title Commitment, the Title Policy, and any requested endorsements in connection therewith, (iii) Purchaser’s cost to obtain a new survey or to update the Survey, (iv) the recording charges or fees for recording the Deed, (v) all fees, costs or expenses in connection with Purchaser’s due diligence reviews and analyses hereunder, (vi) all fees, costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with any acquisition financing obtained by Purchaser, including with respect to any mortgagee title insurance policy, and (vii) one-half of the customary closing costs of the Escrow Agent. Seller shall pay (a) the cost of recording any instruments required to discharge any liens or encumbrances against the Property, (b) and one-half of the customary closing costs of the Escrow Agent, (c) any real property transfer taxes. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each party shall pay the fees of its own attorneys, accountants and other professionals.
5.4.10 Tax Appeals.
5.4.10.1 Purchaser acknowledges that Seller has filed an appeal (the “Appeal”) with respect to real estate ad valorem or other similar property taxes applicable to the Property (the “Property Taxes”).
5.4.10.2 From and after Closing, Xxxxxxxxx agrees that it will continue, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, to reasonably process the Appeal to conclusion with the applicable taxing authority (including any further appeals which Purchaser deems reasonable to pursue). Seller shall, at Purchaser’s request, cooperate with Purchaser to continue the Appeal and shall have the right to reasonably consult with Purchaser with respect to such Appeal. In the event that the Appeal is successful in reducing the amount of Property Taxes payable with respect to the Tax Year in which Closing occurs, then Purchaser and Seller shall share any rebate, refund or reduction (collectively, a “Refund”) resulting from the Appeal on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the number of days in the Tax Year of Closing that each held title to the Property) after first reimbursing each of Purchaser and Seller for their respective actual, reasonable and documented third-party costs (collectively, the “Third-Party Costs”) incurred in connection with the Appeal. If Third-
15
Party Costs equal or exceed the amount of the Refund, then the Refund shall be applied to such Third-Party Costs on a pro rata basis, with each of Purchaser and Seller receiving a portion of the Refund equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the respective party’s Third-Party Costs, and the denominator of which is the total of both parties’ Third-Party Costs, and (ii) the amount of the Refund.
5.4.10.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.4.10, in the event either party obtains a Refund, the parties shall comply with any and all obligations of the landlord under the Leases (or any prior leases for which the tenant thereunder is no longer in occupancy) in order to pass through a portion of the Refund to Tenants thereunder (or the tenants under the prior leases).
5.4.11 Possession. Possession of the Property, subject to the Leases, Property Contracts, other than Terminated Contracts, and Permitted Exceptions, shall be delivered to Purchaser at the Closing upon release from escrow of all items to be delivered by Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.3. To the extent reasonably available to Seller, originals or copies of the Leases and Property Contracts, lease files, warranties, guaranties, operating manuals, keys to the property, and Seller’s books and records (other than proprietary information) (collectively, “Seller’s Property-Related Files and Records”) regarding the Property shall be promptly made available to Purchaser at the Property after the Closing. Purchaser agrees to maintain and preserve any Seller’s Property-Related Files and Records as necessary to permit any readjustments as provided for in Section 5.5.
5.5 Post Closing Adjustments. Purchaser or Seller may request that Purchaser and Seller undertake to re-adjust any item on the Proration Schedule (or any item omitted therefrom), in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.4 of this Agreement; provided, however, that neither party shall have any obligation to re-adjust any items after the expiration of ninety (90) days after Closing. The time limitations for post-closing adjustments contained in the foregoing sentence shall not apply to post-closing adjustments for (i) Taxes pursuant to Section 5.4.4, (ii) the reconciliation of Charges pursuant to Section 5.4.6.2, (iii) Percentage Rent pursuant to Section 5.4.6.3, or (iv) any Refund pursuant to Section 5.4.10.

The provisions of this Section 6.2 shall survive Closing and the delivery of the Deed to Purchaser.

19

Upon the expiration of the Feasibility Period and upon the consummation of the Closing, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any breach of representation or warranty by Seller that was Disclosed to Purchaser at such point.

During the period of time from the Effective Date to the date that is 5 Business Days prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period, in the ordinary course of business Seller may enter into new Property Contracts, new Leases, renew existing Leases or modify, terminate or accept the surrender or forfeiture of any of the Leases, modify or terminate any Property Contracts, or institute and prosecute any available remedies for default under any Lease or Property Contract without first obtaining the written consent of Purchaser; provided, however, that prior to the date that is 5 Business Days prior to expiration of the Feasibility Period Seller shall provide prompt written notice to Purchaser of any such actions. From and after the date that is 5 Business Days prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period, Seller will not enter into new Property Contracts, new Leases or modify or terminate existing Leases or Property Contracts (unless such Leases or Property Contracts are terminable without penalty on no more than thirty (30) days’ notice) except upon five (5) Business Days prior written notice to Purchaser and with the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall be in Purchaser’s sole discretion. The phrase “upon five (5) Business Days prior written
21
notice to Purchaser and with the prior written consent of Purchaser” as used in the above sentence shall mean that Purchaser shall have five (5) Business Days after purchaser receives a true, correct and complete copy of any agreement subject to this Section 7.1 or a summary of the proposed business terms to review and to approve or disapprove in writing such agreement or summary, which approval or disapproval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; it being the understanding, however, that Xxxxxxxxx’s failure to respond in writing within said five (5) Business Day period shall be deemed approval. Purchaser has preapproved and hereby consents to the Preapproved Lease Modifications. Seller has, prior to the Effective Date, entered into the Preapproved Lease Modifications.
7.2 General Operation of Property. Except as specifically set forth in this Article VII, Seller shall continue to operate the Property after the Effective Date in the ordinary course of business, and except as necessary in Seller’s sole discretion to address (a) any life or safety issue at the Property, (b) any requirements of or obligations under any Lease, (c) any requirements of or obligations under any Development Agreement or any Declarations and REAs, or (d) any other matter which in Seller’s reasonable discretion materially adversely affects the use, operation or value of the Property, Seller will not make any material alterations to the Property or remove any material Fixtures and Tangible Personal Property without the prior written consent of Purchaser which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

If Purchaser approves any such subsequent lien or encumbrance, the same shall be deemed a Permitted Exception for all purposes hereunder.
ARTICLE VIII
CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO CLOSING
8.1 Purchaser’s Conditions to Closing. Purchaser’s obligation to close under this Agreement shall be subject to and conditioned upon the fulfillment of the following conditions precedent:
8.1.1 All of the documents required to be delivered by Seller to Purchaser at the Closing pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof shall have been delivered;
8.1.2 Each of Seller’s Representations shall be true in all material respects as of the Closing Date;
8.1.3 Seller shall have complied with, fulfilled and performed in all material respects each of the covenants, terms and conditions to be complied with, fulfilled or performed by Seller hereunder;
8.1.4 Satisfaction of the Estoppel Condition;
22
8.1.5 Seller shall not be a debtor in any bankruptcy proceeding; and
8.1.6 There shall not be pending litigation or, to the knowledge of either Purchaser or Seller, any threatened litigation against Seller or the Property which, if determined adversely, would restrain the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or declare illegal, invalid or nonbinding any of the covenants or obligations of Seller.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, there are no other conditions to Purchaser’s obligation to Close except as expressly set forth in this Section 8.1. If any condition set forth in Sections 8.1.1 through 8.1.6 is not met, Seller shall not be in default pursuant to Section 10.2, and Purchaser may, as its sole and exclusive remedy, (i) notify Seller of Purchaser’s election to terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Deposit from the Escrow Agent, or (ii) waive such condition and proceed to Closing on the Closing Date with no offset or deduction from the Purchase Price. Purchaser’s failure to provide Seller with written notice that it desires to terminate this Agreement by 12:00 p.m. on the Closing Date shall be deemed Purchaser’s decision to purchase the Property.
8.2 Seller’s Conditions to Closing. Without limiting any of the rights of Seller elsewhere provided for in this Agreement, Seller’s obligation to close with respect to conveyance of the Property under this Agreement shall be subject to and conditioned upon the fulfillment of the following conditions precedent:
8.2.1 All of the documents and funds required to be delivered by Purchaser to Seller at the Closing pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof shall have been delivered;
8.2.2 Each of the representations, warranties and covenants of Purchaser contained herein shall be true in all material respects as of the Closing Date;
8.2.3 Purchaser shall have complied with, fulfilled and performed in all material respects each of the covenants, terms and conditions to be complied with, fulfilled or performed by Purchaser hereunder; and
8.2.4 There shall not be pending litigation or, to the knowledge of either Purchaser or Seller, any threatened litigation which, if determined adversely, would restrain the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or declare illegal, invalid or nonbinding any of the covenants or obligations of the Purchaser.
If any of the foregoing conditions to Seller’s obligation to close with respect to conveyance of the Property under this Agreement are not met, Seller may (a) waive any of the foregoing conditions and proceed to Closing on the Closing Date, or (b) terminate this Agreement, and, if such failure constitutes a default by Purchaser, exercise any of its remedies under Section 10.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, both Purchase and Seller each have the right of extension to allow any outstanding conditions to be met, as detailed in Section 5.1.
23
8.3 Estoppel Certificates.
8.3.1 Seller agrees to submit to each Tenant under a Lease after the expiration of the Feasibility Period a request for such Tenant to execute and deliver to Purchaser a signed estoppel certificate, in substantially the form of Exhibit H attached hereto (except that if any Lease prescribes a different form of estoppel certificate, Seller may instead submit an estoppel certificate to such Tenant in such prescribed form). Prior to Seller’s delivery of estoppels to Tenants for signature, Seller shall deliver the same to Purchaser for Purchaser’s review. Purchaser shall have three (3) Business Days after receipt thereof to review and comment on the draft tenant estoppels that Seller intends to deliver to such Tenants. For purposes of this Section 8.3.1, Seller and Purchaser agree that the other may, in its discretion, deliver comments and objections solely via electronic mail to the email address(es) set forth in Section 13.6 of this Agreement. Seller will deliver to Purchaser copies of each executed estoppel certificate promptly following Xxxxxx’s receipt thereof. In the event Seller is unable to obtain and deliver to Purchaser, at or prior to Closing, a Conforming Tenant Estoppel (as defined below) from Tenants meeting the Estoppel Threshold and the Xxxxxx Xxxxx Center Declaration Estoppel (the “Estoppel Condition”), Seller shall not be deemed in default hereunder, however, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice to Seller on or before the Closing, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any further liabilities or obligations hereunder except for the Survival Provisions. If Seller delivers a proposed estoppel certificate to Purchaser for review and Purchaser does not notify Seller that such estoppel certificate is unacceptable by the earlier of (a) three (3) Business Days after delivery thereof, or (b) the Closing Date, then such estoppel certificate will be deemed accepted by Purchaser. If the Estoppel Condition shall not be satisfied as of the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the then scheduled Closing Date, then Seller and Purchaser shall each have the right, by written notice given to the other party, to adjourn the Closing and extend the Closing Date for a period of up to forty-five (45) days. After the satisfaction of the Estoppel Condition, either Seller or Purchaser, may provide written notice to the other party accelerating the Closing to a date that is at least five (5) Business Days after the date of delivery of such notice (but in no event to a date earlier than the initially scheduled Closing Date). As used herein, a “Conforming Tenant Estoppel” will mean either (i) an estoppel certificate that is dated as of a date not earlier than forty-five (45) days prior to Closing signed by a Tenant under a Lease on a Permitted Estoppel Form, which form has all fields properly completed, does not identify any non-de minimus default under the applicable Lease, contains no non-de minimus adverse exceptions or disclosures, and contains no adverse variation from the information included in the Leases and Rent Roll or (ii) an estoppel certificate that is otherwise acceptable to Purchaser in its commercially reasonable discretion. As used herein, a “Permitted Estoppel Form” means any of the following: (x) an estoppel certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit H, (y) an estoppel certificate in the form prescribed by the applicable Tenant’s Lease, or (z) an estoppel certificate in the form customarily provided by any national or regional Tenant, in each case, as may be modified by the applicable Tenant to permit the addition of any reasonable knowledge qualifiers.
8.3.2 Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation), at its election, to substitute its own estoppel certificate on behalf of any Tenant (other than a Major Tenant) to meet the Estoppel Threshold, and if Seller elects, it shall execute and deliver estoppel certificates in substantially the form of the Conforming Tenant Estoppel(s) to Purchaser; provided, however, that if such estoppel certificates delivered by Seller cover more than five (5%) of the leasable commercial area of the Improvements such excess area shall not count towards the satisfaction of the Estoppel Condition. Any such estoppel certificate given by Seller (a “Seller’s Estoppel”) shall state that the certifications made by Seller therein shall survive the Closing for the Survival Period or until such earlier date on which the applicable Tenant shall actually deliver a Conforming Tenant Estoppel, and, in each case, thereafter Seller’s estoppel certificate with respect thereto shall be of no further force or effect. For the purposes of this Agreement, statements contained in any Seller’s Estoppel shall be deemed to be representations of Seller hereunder.
24
8.3.3 Seller shall obtain an estoppel certificate from the Association reciting to matters under the Xxxxxx Xxxxx Center Declaration certified to Purchaser, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, with no adverse exceptions, with all relevant blanks filled in, without reference to any non-de minimus default, and with information that does not materially vary from the information delivered to Purchaser under this Agreement, and dated within sixty (60) days of the Closing (the “Xxxxxx Xxxxx Center Declaration Estoppel”).
8.3.4 Seller shall utilize commercially reasonable efforts to obtain estoppel certificates from Tenants under each Lease. In addition, if and to the extent Purchaser’s lender requires or requests subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreements (“SNDA”) for any Tenants or occupants of the Property, Seller shall request that such Tenants or occupants execute and deliver such SNDAs and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all of such Tenants or occupants to execute an SNDA prior to Closing, provided that, the failure to obtain such SNDAs shall not be a condition precedent to Purchaser’s Closing obligations. As used in this Section 8.3.4, “commercially reasonable efforts” shall not include any obligation to institute or threaten legal proceedings, to declare or threaten to declare any person in default, to expend any monies or grant any concessions, to incur any liabilities, or to cause any other person to do any of the same.
ARTICLE IX
BROKERAGE
9.1 Indemnity. Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that it has dealt only with CBRE Group Inc. (“Broker”) in connection with this Agreement. Seller and Purchaser each represents and warrants to the other that, other than Broker, it has not dealt with or utilized the services of any other real estate broker, sales person or finder in connection with this Agreement, and each party agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and, if requested in the sole and absolute discretion of the indemnitee, defend (with counsel approved by the indemnitee) the other party from and against all Losses relating to brokerage commissions and finder’s fees arising from or attributable to the acts or omissions of the indemnifying party.
9.2 Broker Commission. If, as and when the Closing occurs, Xxxxxx agrees to pay Xxxxxx a commission according to the terms of a separate contract. Broker shall not be deemed a party or third party beneficiary of this Agreement. Seller shall cause Broker to execute and deliver at or before Closing a broker affidavit and lien waiver executed by Xxxxxx in a form reasonably acceptable to Title Company and confirming all amounts owed to Broker under or with respect to this Agreement and the transaction hereunder have been paid in full and releasing any and all lien rights of Broker in and against the Property under O.C.G.A. §§ 00-00-000, et seq.

ARTICLE X
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
10.1 Purchaser Default. If Purchaser defaults in its obligations hereunder to (a) deliver the Deposit (or any other deposit or payment required of Purchaser hereunder), (b) deliver to Seller the deliveries specified under Section 5.3 on the date required thereunder, or (c) deliver the Purchase Price at the time required by Section 2.2.2 and close on the purchase of the Property on the Closing Date, then, immediately and without the right to receive notice or to cure pursuant to Section 2.3.3, Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit to Seller, and neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the Property. If, Purchaser defaults in any of its other representations, warranties or obligations under this Agreement, and such default continues for more than ten (10) days after written notice from Seller, then Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit to Seller, and neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the Property. The Deposit is liquidated damages and recourse to the Deposit is, except for Purchaser’s indemnity and confidentiality obligations hereunder, Xxxxxx’s sole and exclusive remedy for Purchaser’s failure to perform its obligation to purchase the Property or breach of a representation or warranty. Seller expressly waives the remedies of specific performance and additional damages for such default by Purchaser. SELLER AND PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLER’S DAMAGES WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE, AND THAT THE DEPOSIT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLER’S DAMAGES RESULTING FROM A DEFAULT BY PURCHASER IN ITS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTY AND IS NOT A PENALTY BUT IS FULL LIQUIDATED DAMAGES UNDER O.C.G.A.§ 13-6-7. SELLER AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 10.1 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES LIQUIDATE THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE SELLER, AND SHALL BE SELLER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST PURCHASER, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY PURCHASER OF ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS CONTRACT, OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO PURCHASER’S INDEMNITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER. SELLER AND PURCHASER AGREE THAT SELLER’S RETENTION OF THE DEPOSIT IS NOT A PENALTY.
10.2 Seller Default. If Seller, prior to the Closing, defaults in its covenants or obligations under this Agreement, including to sell the Property as required by this Agreement and such default continues for more than ten (10) days after written notice from Purchaser, then, at Purchaser’s election and as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy, either (a) this Agreement shall terminate, and all payments and things of value, including the Deposit, provided by Purchaser hereunder shall be returned to Purchaser, and Purchaser may recover, as its sole recoverable damages (but without limiting its right to receive a refund of the Deposit), its direct and actual out-of-pocket expenses and costs (documented by paid invoices to third parties) in connection with this transaction, which damages shall not exceed $125,000.00 in aggregate, or (b) subject to the conditions below, Purchaser may seek specific performance of Seller’s obligation to deliver the Deed and other Seller obligations to be performed at Closing pursuant to this Agreement (but not damages). Purchaser may seek specific performance of Seller’s obligation to deliver the Deed and perform its obligations at Closing pursuant to this Agreement only if, as a condition precedent to initiating such litigation for specific performance, Purchaser
26
first shall (i) deliver all Purchaser Closing documents to Escrow Agent in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 5.3; (ii) not otherwise be in default under this Agreement; and (iii) file suit therefor with the court on or before the 60th day after the Closing Date; if Purchaser fails to file an action for specific performance within 60 days after the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate the Agreement in accordance with subsection (a) above. Upon Xxxxxx’s written request, Xxxxxxxxx agrees that it shall promptly deliver to Seller an assignment of all of Purchaser’s right, title and interest in and to (together with possession of) all plans, studies, surveys, Third-Party Reports, and other materials paid for with the out-of-pocket expenses reimbursed by Seller pursuant to the foregoing sentence. SELLER AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 10.2 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE PURCHASER AND THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO PURCHASER, AND SHALL BE PURCHASER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST SELLER, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY SELLER OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR COVENANTS OR ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS CONTRACT. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MAY PURCHASER SEEK OR BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, SPECULATIVE OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, ALL OF WHICH PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES, FROM SELLER FOR ANY BREACH BY SELLER, OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR COVENANTS OR ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS CONTRACT. PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO FILE ANY LIS PENDENS OR ANY LIEN AGAINST THE PROPERTY UNLESS AND UNTIL IT HAS IRREVOCABLY ELECTED TO SEEK SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF THIS CONTRACT AND HAS FILED AND IS DILIGENTLY PURSUING AN ACTION SEEKING SUCH REMEDY.
ARTICLE XI
RISK OF LOSS OR CASUALTY
11.1 Major Damage. In the event that the Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Risk of Loss Transfer, and (i) the cost for demolition, site cleaning, restoration, replacement, or other repairs (collectively, the “Repairs”) is more than $1,851,250.00, as reasonably estimated by Purchaser, or (ii) such fire or other casualty at the Property would result in a termination right in favor of any Major Tenant, then Seller shall have no obligation to make such Repairs, and shall notify Purchaser in writing of such damage or destruction (the “Damage Notice”). Within ten (10) days after Purchaser’s receipt of the Damage Notice, Purchaser may elect at its option to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller in which event the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser. In the event Purchaser fails to terminate this Agreement within the foregoing 10-day period, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with Section 11.3 below.
11.2 Minor Damage. In the event that the Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to the Risk of Loss Transfer, and the cost of Repairs is equal to or less than $1,851,250.00, as reasonably estimated by Purchaser, and such fire or other casualty at the Property would not result in a termination right in favor of any Major Tenant, then this transaction shall be closed in accordance with Section 11.3, notwithstanding such casualty. In such event, Seller may at its election endeavor to make such Repairs to the extent of any recovery from insurance carried on the Property, if such Repairs can be reasonably effected before the Closing. Regardless of Seller’s election to commence such Repairs, or Seller’s ability to complete such Repairs prior to Closing, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with Section 11.3 below.
27
11.3 Closing. In the event Purchaser fails to terminate this Agreement following a casualty as set forth in Section 11.1, or in the event of a casualty as set forth in Section 11.2, then this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, at Seller’s election, either (a) for the full Purchase Price, notwithstanding any such casualty, in which case Purchaser shall, at Closing, execute and deliver an assignment and assumption (in a form reasonably required by Seller) of Seller’s rights and obligations with respect to the insurance claim and proceeds related to such casualty, and thereafter Purchaser shall receive all insurance proceeds pertaining to such claim, less any amounts which may already have been spent by Seller for Repairs (plus a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in the amount of any deductible payable by Seller in connection therewith); or (b) for the full Purchase Price less a credit to Purchaser in the amount necessary to complete such Repairs, as reasonably estimated by Purchaser, (less any amounts which may already have been spent by Seller for Repairs). For the purpose of reducing the Purchase Price, evidence of amounts spent by Seller for Repairs shall be provided to Purchaser for review as promptly as possible under the circumstances.
11.4 Repairs. To the extent that Seller elects to commence any Repairs prior to Closing, then Seller shall be entitled to receive and apply available insurance proceeds to any portion of such Repairs completed or installed prior to Closing, with Purchaser being responsible for completion of such Repairs after Closing. To the extent that any Repairs have been commenced prior to Closing, then the Property Contracts shall include, and Purchaser shall assume at Closing, all construction and other contracts entered into by Seller in connection with such Repairs (“Construction Contracts”). If Purchaser has waived any applicable right to terminate this Agreement, then Purchaser shall have the right to reasonably approve any Construction Contracts except in the case of emergency as determined by Seller in Seller’s reasonable discretion. At Purchaser’s request, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain confirmation by the insurance provider regarding the portion of Repairs completed as promptly as possible under the circumstances.
ARTICLE XII
EMINENT DOMAIN
12.1 Eminent Domain. In the event that, at any time after the Effective Date, any part of the Property is (or previously has been) becomes the subject of any actual or threatened condemnation or eminent domain proceedings or transfer in lieu thereof (or in the event that at such time there is any notice of any such acquisition or intent to acquire by any such governmental agency), then Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in writing. If (a) such actual or threatened condemnation or eminent domain proceedings would (i) reduce the value of the Property by more than 2% of the Purchase Price, as reasonably estimated by Purchaser or (ii) result in a termination right in favor of any Major Tenant, Purchaser shall have the right, at Purchaser’s option, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice within ten (10) days after Purchaser’s receipt from Seller of notice of the occurrence of such event, and if Purchaser so terminates this Agreement, Purchaser shall recover the Deposit hereunder. If Purchaser fails
28
to terminate this Agreement within such 10-day period, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the full Purchase Price and Purchaser shall receive the full benefit of any condemnation award. It is expressly agreed between the parties hereto that this Section 12.1 shall in no way apply to customary dedications for public purposes which may be necessary for the development of the Property.

13.15 Waiver.

13.27 Multiple Purchasers. As used in this Agreement, the term “Purchaser” means all entities acquiring any interest in the Property at the Closing, including, without limitation, any assignee(s) of the original Purchaser pursuant to Section 13.3 of this Agreement.
