17. ASSIGNMENT, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Purchaser shall have the right to assign its interest under this Agreement, without obtaining the consent of the Seller, provided that Purchaser shall remain liable to Seller under this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns.
18. DEFAULT.
A. In the event of default by Purchaser hereunder, Seller may terminate this Agreement by giving 30 days prior written notice, pursuant to Minnesota Stat. 559.21 and upon such termination may retain the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Purchaser breaches the provisions of the indemnifications as set forth herein, such indemnifications shall survive any termination of this Agreement and shall continue to be enforceable against Purchaser.
B. In the event of default hereunder by Seller, Purchaser shall be entitled to either: i) enforce this Agreement by specific performance; or ii) terminate this Agreement by giving 30 days prior written notice and upon such termination shall be entitled to a return of its Xxxxxxx Money and all of its actual out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with entering into this Agreement and preparing to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby, including, but not limited to, fees paid to consultants, such as engineers, environmental engineers, attorneys, etc., and non-refundable
15
fees paid in connection with any mortgage applications, rate lock agreement deposits or the like; provided however, in no event shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for damages which exceed an amount equal to the Xxxxxxx Money. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Seller breaches the representation and warranty provisions of Section 9 in any material way and such breach is not known to Purchaser at Closing, Purchaser shall have all of its rights and remedies with respect to such breach as may be afforded it by law or by equity.
C. If any legal action is brought by Seller or Purchaser for the enforcement of this Agreement or by reason of dispute or an alleged breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement for damages or any other relief or remedy as allowed hereby, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and other court and direct costs incurred in connections with such action or proceeding. This provision shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.
19. TITLE COMPANY AS ESCROW AGENT. Title Company shall hold, invest and disburse the Xxxxxxx Money as provided in this Agreement. Upon receipt of an appropriate IRS form W-9 from Purchaser, Title Company shall deposit the Xxxxxxx Money in an interest bearing account, as agreed between Title Company and Purchaser. Upon receipt of any written certification from Seller or Purchaser claiming the Xxxxxxx Money, the Title Company shall promptly forward a copy thereof to the other party hereto and, unless such party within five (5) business days thereafter objects by written notice to the Title Company to such disbursement, the Title Company shall disburse the Xxxxxxx Money to the party demanding the same and shall thereupon be released and discharged from any duty or obligation hereunder. The Title Company is acting as escrow agent only with respect to the Xxxxxxx Money, to the extent paid by Purchaser, and if there is any dispute as to whether Title Company is obligated to deliver the Xxxxxxx Money, or as to whom the Xxxxxxx Money is to be delivered, the Title Company may refuse to make delivery and may continue to hold the Xxxxxxx Money until receipt by Title Company of an authorization, in writing, signed by Seller and Purchaser, directing the disposition of the Xxxxxxx Money; in the absence of such written authorization, the Title Company may hold the Xxxxxxx Money until a final determination of the rights of the parties and appropriate proceeding or may bring an appropriate action or proceeding for leave to deposit the Xxxxxxx Money in a Court of competent jurisdiction pending such determination. The Seller and Purchaser recognize that Title Company’s duties hereunder are only as specifically provided herein and are purely administerial in nature; and the Seller and Purchaser therefore agree that Title Company shall, so long as it acts in good faith and in accordance with this Agreement, have no liability to either Purchaser or Seller, except for its willful misconduct or gross negligence. Seller and Purchaser do hereby further indemnify Title Company against, and agree to hold, save and defend the Title Company harmless from, any costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by Title Company in discharging its duties hereunder, except for willful misconduct or gross negligence.

To Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company,

The undersigned (“Tenant”) understands that UPI and/or CLIII will be acquiring the Property described below and that Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (“MassMutual”) has made or will be making a mortgage loan (the “Loan”) on the Property described below. In connection with the Loan, MassMutual will be receiving an assignment of all leases with respect to the Property and will be acting in reliance upon this letter.
By signing below, the Tenant certifies to and agrees with MassMutual, UPI and CLIII as follows:
1. |
The Tenant leases a portion of a[n] |

and known generally as |
|

|
(the “Property”) |
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. |
The lease between the Tenant and the landlord (“Landlord”) regarding the Tenant’s premises (the “Premises”) |
||||||
|
is dated |
|

|
and is un-amended except as follows: |
|
|||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

The Tenant has accepted and is now in sole possession of the Premises. Any construction, build out, improvements, alterations or additions to the Premises required under the Lease have been completed in accordance with the Lease and Landlord has paid to Tenant all tenant improvement allowances and has paid all other tenant inducements due as of the date of this Tenant’s Acceptance Letter as provided for in the Lease. |
||||||||
|
|
||||||||
5. |
The Tenant has not subleased any part of the Premises or assigned the Lease. |
||||||||
|
|
||||||||
6. |
As of this date, the Lease is in full force and effect and there is no violation of or default under the Lease on the part of the Landlord or the Tenant. There is no present offset of rent and the Tenant has no knowledge of any circumstances which would give rise to any credit or set-off against the obligation for present or future rentals under the Lease. |
||||||||
|
|
||||||||
7. |
The Tenant will, concurrently with the giving of any notice to the Landlord, give MassMutual written notice (at the above address) of any default by the Landlord under the Lease. MassMutual will have a reasonable opportunity, before the |
||||||||

|
exercise of any rights the Tenant may have pertaining to the Lease, to cure any such default by the Landlord. |
|
|
8. |
The Tenant hereby subordinates all of its right, title and interest under the Lease to the lien, operation and effect of any mortgage(s) (as modified or extended) of MassMutual now or hereafter in force against the Property, and to all advances hereafter made under such mortgage(s). |
|
|
9. |
In the event that MassMutual or any third party becomes the owner of the Property, by foreclosure or otherwise, the Tenant agrees to attorn to MassMutual or any purchaser and to recognize MassMutual or any purchaser as the Landlord under the Lease. Acceptance of this letter by MassMutual constitutes MassMutual’s agreement that it will not disturb or interfere with the Tenant’s possession of the Premises during the term of the Lease or any extension or renewal thereof so long as the Tenant is not in default under the Lease. |
Sincerely,
TENANT: |
