conversely, if such taxes for the year of Closing decrease from those of the
preceding year, Purchaser shall pay to Seller a pro rata portion of such
decrease, computed to the Closing Date, any such payment to be made within ten
(10) days after notification by either party that such adjustment is necessary.
Seller shall, on or before the Closing Date, furnish to Purchaser and the Title
Company all information necessary to compute the prorations provided for in this
Section. Except for the prorations between Purchaser and Seller as hereinabove
provided, the payment of any and all assessments, special assessments, charges,
levies, or taxes against the Property, shall be the sole responsibility of and
shall be paid by Seller if due and payable prior to the Closing Date and shall
be the sole responsibility of and shall be paid by Purchaser if due and payable
on or after the Closing Date, provided, however, that Seller shall be
responsible for and shall pay subsequent assessments for ad valorem taxes for
years prior to the year of Closing due to change in land usage or in ownership
of the Property and that in the event of a breach by Seller of any of Seller's
representations or warranties contained in Section 6.1 hereof, Seller shall be
solely responsible for and shall pay any and all assessments, special
assessments,
11
charges, levies, or taxes against the Property due and payable after the Closing
Date to which the Property was subject or which Seller knew were contemplated
prior to the Closing Date.

the Property in any way except only to the extent, if any, herein expressly and
specifically provided.
