5.3 Application of Representations and Warranties; Sellers' Knowledge.
5.3.1 The representations and warranties of Sellers herein shall be deemed
to be made (a) by NWC Glades 441, Inc. and Diversified Invest II, LLC with
respect to Mission Bay Plaza and Boca Mission, LLC only and (b) by Delray
Retail, Inc. and Diversified Invest III, LLC with respect to Plaza at Delray and
Xxxxxx Delray, LLC only.
5.3.2 The representations and warranties in Section 5.2 ("Company
Representations") shall not operate to extend or expand any representation or
warranty in Section 5.1 ("Property Representations") that has expired or is
limited pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.5 and/or 5.6 below. If Purchaser
may have a claim for breach of a Company Representation based upon facts or
circumstances that would have given rise to a claim for breach of a Property
Representation, then to the extent the claim for breach of a Property
Representation is barred or limited by the provisions of Section 5.5 and/or 5.6,
Purchaser shall have no right to assert such claim for breach of the Company
Representation. For example, if Purchaser claims that Seller failed to disclose
an amendment to a Lease, such claim shall be treated as a claim based upon an
alleged breach of Section 5.1.9 and as such shall be subject to the survival
periods for Property Representations set forth in Section 5.5 below, even though
the claim might also have constituted a breach of the Company Representation in
Section 5.2.9.
5.3.3 When used in this Contract or in any certificate or other document
delivered pursuant hereto, the phrase "to the best of Sellers' knowledge," "to
Sellers' knowledge," or derivations thereof shall be construed to mean the
current, actual knowledge of F. Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, without any obligation to make
investigation or inquiry regarding the Interests or the Property other than of
Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx and of Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx of the Property Manager, and
13
without obligation to make any investigation of the files, documents or studies
in the possession of other persons, and shall not include any knowledge which
may be imputed to either Seller or of any other person. Purchaser acknowledges
that the individuals named above are named solely for the purpose of defining
and narrowing the scope of Sellers' knowledge and not for the purpose of
imposing any liability on or creating any duties running from such individuals
to Purchaser. Purchaser covenants that it will bring no action of any kind
against such individuals, related to or arising out of these representations and
warranties.
5.4 Purchaser's Representations. Purchaser represents and warrants to Sellers as
of the Effective Date, as follows:
5.4.1 Purchaser is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the state of its incorporation or creation as a limited
liability company, and by Closing will be qualified to do business in the State
of Florida, with full power and authority to enter into and execute this
Contract and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Purchaser has
received all requisite limited liability company approvals necessary for the
execution of this Contract and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby and this Contract constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
Purchaser, enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as
such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
reorganization or other similar laws affecting debtors' and creditors' rights
generally and general equitable provisions.
5.4.2 Neither the execution of this Contract nor the performance by
Purchaser of its obligations hereunder will violate, be in conflict with, result
in a breach of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time, or both) a
default under any Applicable Law.
5.5 Survival. The representations and warranties made by Sellers in Section 5.1
hereof shall be effective as of the Effective Date and continue in full force
and effect after the Closing for a period of six (6) months; provided any claim
arising by reason of a claimed breach of such representations and warranties
must be filed in a court of competent jurisdiction on or before the date which
is six (6) months from the Closing Date. The representations and warranties made
by Sellers in Section 5.2 hereof shall be effective as of the Effective Date and
as of the Closing Date, and continue in full force and effect after the Closing
for a period of twelve (12) months; provided any claim arising by reason of a
claimed breach of such representations and warranties must be filed in a court
of competent jurisdiction on or before the date which is twelve (12) months from
the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to the Closing,
Purchaser obtains actual knowledge that any representation or warranty of
Sellers is inaccurate and Purchaser nonetheless proceeds with the Closing,
Sellers shall have no liability for any such matter regarding which Purchaser
had actual knowledge prior to Closing.
5.6 Limitation of Sellers' Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, any agreement or other instrument contemplated by this
Agreement, or any rights which Purchaser might otherwise have at law, equity, or
by statute, whether based on contract or some other claim, in no event will
Sellers' liability to Purchaser (other than with respect to claims for breach of
any representations or warranties made by Sellers in Section 5.2 above) exceed
(a) Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000.00) with respect to the
purchase of Interests in Boca Mission, LLC and (b) Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($750,000.00) with respect to the

purchase of Interests in Xxxxxx Delray, LLC. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the general and limited partners, employees, agent or affiliate
of Sellers will not in any manner be personally or individually liable for the
obligations of Sellers hereunder or for any claims related to this Agreement,
any agreement or other instrument contemplated by this Agreement, the Interests
or the Property. The provisions of this Section 5.6 shall survive the Closing.

condition "AS IS, WITH ALL FAULTS, (WHETHER LATENT, PATENT OR DETECTABLE OR NOT)
AND WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED", and without any
reduction in the Purchase Price for any change in the physical or financial
condition occurring from and after the Effective Date EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS CONTAINED IN THIS CONTRACT.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, IT IS UNDERSTOOD AND
AGREED THAT, EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS
CONTAINED IN THIS CONTRACT, SELLERS AND SELLERS' AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES HAVE NOT
MADE AND ARE NOT NOW MAKING, AND THEY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM, ANY WARRANTIES,

current or future federal, state and local laws, regulations or guidelines),

future under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. Sections 9601 et seq., as amended; the Resource

(d) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION ARE A MATERIAL PART OF THE
CONSIDERATION FOR SELLERS' ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND SHALL SURVIVE

ARTICLE 6
CONDITIONS TO CLOSING
6.1 Tenant Estoppels.
6.1.1 Estoppel Requirement. As a condition to Purchaser's obligation to
close this transaction, Purchaser shall have received executed and current (i.e.
dated not earlier than July 1, 2004) estoppel letters (each such certificate, an
"Estoppel Letter") from (i) all Tenants of the
16
Property whose individual leased premises comprise at least 10,000 rentable
square feet or more (the "Major Tenants"); and (ii) Tenants of the Property
whose leased premises comprise at least eighty five percent (85%) of that
portion of the rentable floor area of each separate Center occupied by Tenants
who are not Major Tenants. In the event that Sellers are unable to provide to
Purchaser the required Estoppel Letters on or before August 4, 2004, Purchaser
may either: (a) elect not to purchase the Interests, at which time the Deposit
shall be returned to Purchaser and this Agreement shall be null and void and
neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement,
except for the indemnity obligations and other obligations which by the express
terms hereof survive termination; or (b) elect to purchase the Interests
notwithstanding Purchaser's failure to receive the required Estoppel Letters, in
which event Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the condition contained in
this Section 6.1 (and Purchaser's failure to elect option (b) above in writing
prior to Closing shall be deemed an election of option (a)), provided however
that Sellers shall have the right to adjourn the Closing for up to fifteen (15)
days in the aggregate, upon written notice to Purchaser, in order to obtain the
required Estoppel Letters.
6.1.2 Procedures for Obtaining Estoppel Letters.
(a) The Estoppel Letter submitted to Tenants shall be in
substantially the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (or, if Lender so
requires, upon the form required by the Lender) or in such other form, or
containing such certifications, as may be provided for in the applicable
Lease. As soon as reasonably practicable, Sellers will cause the Property
Manager to prepare an Estoppel Letter for each Tenant and deliver the same
to Purchaser for review and approval. Purchaser shall have until the close
of business June 29, 2004 to object to the proposed Estoppel Letters. In
the event that Purchaser has not objected to the Estoppel Letters within
such time, such Estoppel Letters shall be deemed approved and Sellers may
deliver same to the applicable Tenants for execution. Estoppel Letters
that have been approved, or deemed approved, in accordance with the
foregoing procedures shall be referred to herein as "Form Estoppel
Letter(s)."
(b) As and when Sellers receive an executed Estoppel Letter (each an
"Executed Estoppel") from a Tenant, Sellers will furnish Purchaser with a
copy. In the event that Purchaser has not objected to the Executed
Estoppel within five (5) business days, such Executed Estoppel shall be
deemed approved. In the event Purchaser properly objects to the Executed
Estoppel within the specified time period, such Executed Estoppel shall
not be included in the threshold requirements set forth in Section 6.1.
Subject to Section 6.1.2(c) below, Purchaser shall have the right to
object to an Executed Estoppel that is not in the form required by this
Section 6.1.2, or that contains information that is not consistent with
the Form Estoppel Letters approved by Purchaser pursuant to Section
6.1.2(a) above.
(c) Purchaser shall have no right to object to an Executed Estoppel
solely because (i) the certifications with respect to absence of defaults
or rights of offset have been qualified as being to the Tenant's knowledge
or as being subject to any similar qualification, (ii) the Lease has not
been attached, or (iii) the Tenant has substituted its own form of
Estoppel Letter, so long as the Tenant's form contains substantially the
same information and statements that are provided in Exhibit B hereto or
comparable sections
17
of the Lender's form (unless otherwise provided in the estoppel provisions
of the applicable Lease), and such information does not conflict with the
information provided in the corresponding sections of the Form Estoppel
Letter for such Tenant.
(d) In the event that the Closing Date is adjourned, the Executed
Estoppels approved by Purchaser shall be deemed "current" through the
adjourned Closing Date.
6.2 Conditions to Purchaser's Obligation to Close. In addition to the conditions
set forth elsewhere in this Contract, the following condition(s) shall be
conditions precedent to the obligation of Purchaser to purchase the Interests on
the Closing Date as provided herein:

applicable premiums and fees, its ALTA Owner's Policy of Title Insurance in the
amount of the Purchase Price showing fee simple title vested in the applicable
Company subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances. If there is a title
exception other than a Permitted Encumbrance which precludes the Title Company
from issuing such policy, then Sellers shall have the right to substitute as the
Title Company either Chicago Title Insurance Company or another major title
insurance company which is prepared to issue such policy, provided that
Purchaser has approved in its reasonable judgment any affirmative insurance or
endorsements with respect to the title exception in question.
6.2.2 The Closing Balance Sheet of each Company shall show no assets other
than (x) the Center owned by such Company (including receivables attributable to
unpaid rents, if any), (y) utility and similar deposits and (z) any reserves
then outstanding under the Loan Documents, and no liabilities other than (i)
obligations shown on the Balance Sheet attached hereto as Exhibit P, (ii) the
Loan, (iii) payables that have been prorated in accordance with the provisions
of this Contract and (iv) liabilities covered by insurance. For avoidance of
doubt, the parties agree that the annotated balance sheets attached hereto as
Exhibit P reflect the intended status of each line item as of the Closing.
6.2.3 Lender shall have approved in writing the sale of the Interests to
Purchaser in accordance with Section 9.3 hereof.
6.2.4 The representations and warranties made by Sellers in Section 5.1
shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of the Effective
Date, and the representations and warranties made by Sellers in Section 5.2
shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Effective Date and
the Closing Date.
6.3 Conditions to Sellers' Obligation to Close. In addition to the conditions
set forth elsewhere in this Contract, the following condition(s) shall be

to Purchaser in accordance with Section 9.3 hereof, and (b) executed releases in
form and substance satisfactory to Sellers releasing any Affiliates of Sellers
that may be obligated under any of the Loan Documents (including any nonrecourse
guaranty and environmental indemnity), from any and all liability under or in
respect of the Loan from and after the Closing Date.
18
6.4 Failure of Condition. If any of the foregoing conditions are not satisfied
by Closing, the party for whose benefit such condition runs shall have the right
to terminate this Contract by notifying the other party, in which event
Purchaser shall receive a return of the Xxxxxxx Money and this Contract shall be
null and void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations
under this Contract, except for the Surviving Obligations.

hereof, pursuant to the provisions of the Property Management

(iii) Such other affidavits and documents as may be reasonably

connection with the ownership, management and operation of the Property
shall be paid or shall be prorated between Sellers and Purchaser in
accordance with the provisions set forth below as of 11:59 p.m. of the day
immediately preceding the Closing Date, as if Sellers were the owner of

to the Closing Date and shall be part of the settlement statement for the

or Sellers and which are Purchaser's responsibility pursuant to
Section 9.1(b) hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, "Leasing
Costs" shall mean all leasing commissions, tenant improvement

(ii) monthly rents (including fixed and additional rent) for

basis based upon the actual number of days in the month during which
the Closing occurs.
(iii) ad valorem taxes (real and personal) for the tax year
during which the Closing occurs shall be prorated and adjusted at
Closing on an accrual basis. For example, if the tax year is
calendar year 2004, and if taxes for 2004 are due on November 1,
2004, then at Closing on August 15, 2004 Purchaser would be entitled
to a credit for real estate taxes for the period January 1, 2004
through August 14, 2004. If real property taxes and assessments for
the year of Closing are not known or cannot be reasonably estimated,
taxes shall be estimated based on taxes for the year prior to
Closing. After taxes for the year of Closing are known, adjustments,
if needed, will be made between the parties. Any refunds or credits
received after Closing shall be prorated between the parties as set
forth above, and Purchaser shall pay to Sellers their share of such
refund or credit, net of reasonable attorneys' fees, promptly
following receipt of such refund or application of such credit.
(iv) Percentage rent collected from Tenants for the month in
which the Closing occurs, and attributable to the fiscal year in

21
shall be prorated on a cash basis at Closing based upon the actual
number of days in such month. A further adjustment shall be made at
the end of the fiscal year for which Tenants pay percentage rent, on
an annualized basis, based upon the gross sales reports submitted by
Tenants for such fiscal year and Sellers' share thereof shall be
paid within 15 days following collection of such percentage rents
from Tenants.
(v) Additional rent that is not paid on a monthly basis but
that will become due and payable for the year in which the Closing
occurs, including quarterly or annual payments, reconciliations and
so called "rebillings" or "true ups" for common area maintenance,
real estate taxes, insurance and other escalations or recoveries,
shall be adjusted on an annualized basis promptly following the
determination of the amounts due. Any such additional rent
attributable to periods prior to the year of Closing shall be the
sole property of Sellers.
(vi) All costs, expenses, charges and fees relating to the
ownership, management, operation, maintenance and repair of the
Property, including electricity, gas, water and sewer charges,
telephone and other public utilities, common area maintenance
charges, personal property taxes, excise taxes on rent, business
occupational taxes, the Companies' contributions to merchant or
project associations or to promotional funds, periodic charges
payable under Contracts, periodic fees payable under transferable
licenses for the operation of the Property, and periodic charges
under reciprocal easement agreements, shall be prorated on an
accrual basis as of the Closing Date based upon the actual number of
days in the month during which the Closing occurs. To the extent
feasible, utility meters shall be read on the date prior to the date
of Closing and all utilities thereafter used shall be paid for by
Purchaser and all utilities theretofore used shall be paid by
Sellers.
(vii) The Companies shall retain all cash Security Deposits,
provided that Sellers shall be entitled to retain any Security
Deposits of Tenants in default that vacated their premises prior to
the Closing Date to the extent allowed under such Tenant's Lease or
Applicable Laws. All utility deposits made by the Companies shall
remain assets of the Companies and the amount of such deposits shall
be added to the Purchase Price at Closing.
(viii) Debt service (being interest only payments) under the
Loan shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. Pursuant to Section
2.1.3, Purchaser shall receive a credit for the principal balance of
the Loans as of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall pay or credit to
Sellers at Closing the then outstanding balance of any tax and
insurance impounds and other reserve or escrow accounts held by
Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents.
(ix) The provisions of this Section 7.2(e) shall survive the
Closing.
22
7.3 Closing Costs. Sellers shall pay one-half of the escrow fee charged by the
Title Company, its share of the prorations as set forth in Section 7.2(e) hereof
and its own attorney's fees. Purchaser shall pay the cost of the Survey, the
premium for the Owner's Policy, and any endorsements to such Owner's Policy
Purchaser elects to purchase, all inspections undertaken pursuant to ARTICLE 3
hereof, one-half of the escrow fee charged by the Title Company, all fees for
recording any instruments to be filed or recorded at Closing, its proportionate
share of the prorations as set forth in Section 7.2(e) hereof, and its own
attorney's fees. If any State or local transfer taxes are imposed upon the sale
of the Property or the Interests, such taxes shall be split 50/50 between
Sellers and Purchaser. Fees and costs in connection with the assumption of the
Loan shall be allocated as set forth in Section 9.3 below. Except as otherwise
provided in this Section, all other expenses hereunder shall be paid by the
party incurring such expenses.
7.3.1 Title Indemnity. The parties acknowledge that non-imputation
endorsements are not available in Florida. Purchaser is seeking a title
insurance policy or endorsement or affirmative insurance that would provide to
Purchaser substantially the same protection as a non-imputation endorsement. If
the Title Company will not issue such a policy, endorsement or affirmative
insurance, in form and substance satisfactory to Purchaser, then at Closing
Investcorp Properties Limited ("IPL") shall deliver to Purchaser an indemnity
agreement, in form reasonably acceptable to both parties ("Title Indemnity"),
indemnifying Purchaser with respect to one half of the amount of any losses
(including reasonable legal fees) actually incurred by Purchaser because the
Title Company denies coverage of a claim under its policies on the grounds that
the applicable defects, liens or other matters affecting the Companies' title to
the Property were (a) created, suffered, assumed or agreed to by the Company
during Seller's period of ownership of the Interests, or (b) known to Seller and
not been disclosed in writing to the Title Company prior to the Closing Date.
The Title Indemnity shall be subject to the following conditions and
limitations: (i) any claim under the Title Indemnity must be filed in a court of
competent jurisdiction on or before the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing
Date, (ii) Purchaser shall look first to the title insurance policies that were
issued to the Company upon its acquisition of the Center ("Original Policies")
with respect to matters known to the issuer of such policies ("Original
Issuer"), including matters shown in title commitments or reports issued by the
Original Issuer and surveys or searches delivered to the Original Issuer in
connection with the issuance of the Original Policies, (iii) the liability of
IPL shall be limited to $443,100 less one-half of any state or local real estate
transfer tax imposed and paid upon the sale of Interests contemplated hereby,
and (iv) the Title Indemnity shall be for the sole benefit of Purchaser and
shall not be transferable to any other person, including to any subsequent
purchaser of the Property or the Interests or any portion thereof, other than
Affliates of Purchaser.
ARTICLE 8
DAMAGE TO PROPERTY
8.1 Casualty; Condemnation. Sellers agrees to give Purchaser prompt notice of
any casualty affecting the Land, the Improvements or the Personalty between the
date hereof and the Closing Date or of any actual or threatened taking or
condemnation of all or any portion of the Land or the Improvements.
(a) If prior to the Closing there shall occur:
23
(i) damage to either Property caused by fire or other casualty
which would cost $500,000 or more to repair or restore, as
reasonably determined by Sellers; or
(ii) the taking or condemnation of all or any portion of the
Land and the Improvements as would materially interfere with the
continuing use thereof as a retail shopping center;
then in any such event, Purchaser may at its option terminate this Contract by
notice to Sellers within ten (10) days after Purchaser has received the notice
referred to above or at the Closing, whichever is earlier. If Purchaser does not
elect to terminate this Contract, then the Closing shall take place as provided
herein without abatement of the Purchase Price, and any insurance proceeds or
condemnation awards which may be payable to the Company on account of any such
occurrence, or rights to such proceeds or awards, shall remain an asset of the
Company and Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the
amount of any unpaid deductible applicable to such insurance proceeds (less any
portion of the deductible that has been applied to covered losses). For example,
if there is a $25,000 deductible under the all risk policy, a water pipe breaks
and the Company spends $10,000 on emergency repairs prior to Closing, Purchaser
would receive a credit for $15,000, which is the balance of the deductible, and
the Company would have a claim for any other covered loss.
(b) If prior to the Closing there shall occur:
(i) damage to either Center caused by fire or other casualty
which would cost less than $500,000 to repair or restore, as
reasonably determined by Sellers; or
(ii) the taking or condemnation of a portion of the Land and
the Improvements which would not materially interfere with the
continuing use of a Center as a retail shopping center;
then in any such event, Purchaser shall have no right to terminate its
obligations under this Contract, but any insurance proceeds or condemnation
awards which may be payable to the Company on account of any such occurrence,
and any rights to receive such proceeds or awards, shall remain an asset of the
Company and Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the
amount of any unpaid deductible applicable to such insurance proceeds (less any
portion of the deductible that has been applied to covered losses).
8.2 Arbitration. Any dispute arising with regard to any matter described in this
ARTICLE 8 (including but not limited to the cost to restore) shall be resolved
by binding arbitration in accordance with the Construction Industry Arbitration
Rules of the American Arbitration Association.
8.3 Postponement of Closing. If an arbitration pursuant to Section 8.2 above has
not been resolved by the Closing Date, then the Closing Date shall be extended
for a reasonable time, but no later than twenty (20) days after resolution of
the arbitration, provided, however, if said arbitration has not been resolved
within thirty (30) days following the original scheduled Closing Date, either
party may terminate this Contract and, provided that Purchaser has not
unreasonably
24
failed to make any determination, election or agreement provided for in this
ARTICLE 8, neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder
(except as expressly provided herein) and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to
Purchaser.
ARTICLE 9
INTERIM AND POST-CLOSING RESPONSIBILITIES
9.1 Interim Responsibilities.
(a) Sellers agree that during the period between the Effective Date
and the Closing Date, Sellers shall cause the Companies to:
(i) manage and lease the Property, or cause the Property to be
managed and leased, under policies substantially similar to those
existing prior to the Effective Date, provided that Sellers shall
have no obligation to cause the Companies to make any capital
improvements or replacements to the Property or any portion thereof,
but Sellers shall cure any notice that the Property is in violation
of Applicable Laws received prior to Closing unless such violation
is attributable to acts or omissions of a Tenant (provided that
Sellers shall not be obligated to expend more than $50,000 per
Center to cure such violations). Nothing herein shall prohibit
Sellers from submitting requisitions from reserves held by the
Lender and the proceeds of any such requisitions shall be retained
by Sellers, or from making distributions prior to Closing that are
consistent with the Closing Balance Sheet;
(ii) obtain Purchaser's prior written consent before entering
into any Lease Transaction (other than an amendment to evidence the
Tenant's exercise of a right to renewal, extension or expansion in
accordance with the terms set forth in the Lease), provided that
Purchaser's consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed
with respect to Lease Transactions entered into prior to the end of
the Inspection Period, and Sellers shall provide Purchaser with
copies of all relevant documents, including without limitation
documents evidencing the Leasing Costs for which Purchaser may be
liable pursuant to Section 9.1(b) below, to allow Purchaser to make
an informed decision. Purchaser hereby approves Lease Transactions
with Fast Frames (at Plaza at Delray) and Bronze Body tanning salon
(at Mission Bay Plaza) pursuant to the term sheets attached hereto
as Exhibit O;
(iii) maintain property and liability insurance coverage in
the ordinary course of the Companies' business with respect to the
Property from the date hereof through the Closing Date or earlier
termination of this Contract; and
(iv) refrain from granting any lien or causing any instrument
to be recorded that would further encumber the Property in any
manner, other than memoranda of lease and/or subordination,
non-disturbance and attornment
25
agreements with respect to Leases entered into in accordance with
the terms hereof or liens or encumbrances to be discharged as of the
Closing Date.
(b) Purchaser shall be solely liable for all Leasing Costs in connection
with any Lease Transaction entered into or effective between the Effective Date
and the Closing Date and permitted or deemed permitted by Section 9.1(a)(ii)
hereof, and shall reimburse Sellers at Closing for any portion of such Leasing
Costs that were paid prior to the Closing Date, and shall pay all other such
Leasing Costs as and when the same become due and payable. Sellers shall be
responsible for all other Leasing Costs that are due and payable as of the
Closing Date in connection with the Leases (including Leasing Costs for the
Lease Transactions with Fast Frames and Bronze Body). This provision shall
survive the Closing.
9.2 Delinquent Rents; Post Closing Adjustments. The provisions of this Section
9.2 shall survive Closing.
9.2.1 Purchaser shall use its reasonable efforts to collect rents
delinquent as of the Closing Date in the usual course of Purchaser's operation
of the Property following Closing, and shall apply the rents so collected first
to rents due for the month in which the Closing occurs (and Purchaser shall
promptly pay to each Seller its proportionate share of such amounts), second to
current rents and third, out of any excess remaining, to delinquencies in
reverse order (i.e. to the most recent delinquencies first); provided, however,
Purchaser shall not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection
procedures to collect such delinquent rents. If, after using reasonable efforts,
Purchaser is unable to collect any such delinquent rents, Purchaser shall have
no liability for its failure to do so and Sellers shall have no right to pursue
collection of same.
9.2.2 Any post-Closing prorations and adjustments shall be made as soon as
practicable after the Closing, but in any event within fifteen (15) days
following collection with respect to additional rent for real property tax
reimbursements, and by March 30, 2005 with respect to all other additional rent.
Purchaser shall xxxx Tenants for real property tax reimbursements no later than
December 31, 2004. The party owing any amount shall reimburse the other party to
whom such amount is owed within then (10) business days after such adjustment
occurs. Purchaser shall provide an accounting with respect to each Center,
accompanied by reasonable documentary evidence of the rents, revenues and
expenses in question.
9.2.3 Notwithstanding Section 9.2.1, any payments received from Tenants
after the Closing which are either designated as payments for percentage rent,
common area maintenance adjustments, escalations, recoveries or other similar
items, or which are otherwise readily identifiable as such, and which accrued
prior to Closing, shall be adjusted between Sellers and Purchaser and shall not
be applied to outstanding current rents.
9.3 Assumption of the Loans.
9.3.1 Promptly following the Effective Date, Sellers shall request
Lender's consent to the sale of the Interests as a permitted transfer under the
Loan Documents. Purchaser shall, no later than June 17, 2004 (the "Loan
Submission Date"), provide to the Lender all documents and information requested
by Lender in the assumption checklist submitted to Purchaser prior to the
26
Effective Date, and all other documents and information with respect to
Purchaser and its Substitute Indemnitor as Lender may reasonably require.
9.3.2 Purchaser shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with such
request, and shall use its best efforts to obtain Lender's consent. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall: (i) submit all
information (including without limitation audited financial statements) with
respect to Purchaser, its principals and affiliates and the entity ("Substitute
Indemnitor") that will replace Investcorp Properties Limited ("IPL") as
indemnitors or guarantors with respect to any environmental or other
indemnification or recourse obligations under the Loan Documents, as Lender may
request, (ii) provide such customary legal opinions as Lender may require, from
counsel acceptable to Lender and in form and substance acceptable to Lender,
including without limitation a non-consolidation opinion, (iii) satisfy Lender's
requirements with respect to the single purpose entity and bankruptcy remote
structure of ownership of Purchaser; (iv) comply with Lender's requirement to
establish a lockbox for the deposit of the rents from the Property, and increase
the amount of any tax and insurance, replacement, leasing cost or other reserves
if required by Lender pursuant to the terms of applicable agreements with
respect to such reserves; (v) comply with any other reasonable conditions to the
transfer which may be imposed by the Lender (subject to Section 9.3.6) and, if
the Loan has been securitized prior to the Closing, by any applicable rating
agencies, including delivery of any customary legal opinions required by Lender,
(vi) satisfy Lender with respect to the property manager and exclusive leasing
agent for the Property and the form of any contracts with such parties; and
(vii) take such other actions as may be reasonably required to comply with the
provisions of Article 8 of the Mortgage and Security Agreement with respect to
each Property.
9.3.3 Purchaser shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lender at
Closing such documents as Lender may require in order to obtain Lender's consent
to the transfer and to enable Lender to release Seller's Affiliates from further
liability in respect of the Loan (the "Assumption Documents"). The Assumption
Documents shall include, without limitation, the following: (i) an assumption
agreement in the standard form required by the Lender, (ii) agreements executed
by the Substitute Indemnitor in substantially the form of the original
Environmental Indemnification Agreement executed by the applicable Company and
IPL and the Guaranty of Recourse Obligations of Borrower executed by IPL and
(iii) an agreement among Purchaser, its property manager and Lender
subordinating any claims of the property manager to the lien of the mortgages
securing the Loans. The Assumption Documents shall provide for such amendments
to the Loan Documents as are necessary to (x) substitute Purchaser as borrower
and an entity satisfactory to Lender as Substitute Indemnitor, (y) modify
representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants as
necessary to delete all references to Sellers and/or its Affiliates, and to
reflect Purchaser's structure of ownership and (z) modify the "due on sale"
clause to include the following types of transactions as permitted transfers,
but only to the extent such permitted transfers are consistent with the existing
guidelines of the applicable rating agencies: (A) transfers of limited
partnership interests in Ramco-Xxxxxxxxxx Properties, L.P. (the "Operating
Partnership"), so long as RPT (as hereinafter defined) remains the general
partner of the Operating Partnership, (B) sales on a public exchange of stock in
Ramco-Xxxxxxxxxx Properties Trust ("RPT"), which is the publicly traded real
estate investment trust that is the general partner of the Operating
Partnership, and (C) merger transactions involving either Indemnitor or RPT.
27
9.3.4 Sellers shall request that the Lender include in the Assumption
Documents a certification of the Lender to the effect that: (i) the Loan
Documents are all of the material documents relating to the Loan and are
unmodified; (ii) the Loan is in good standing and there is no default thereunder
and no event which, with the passage of time, would mature into a default; (iii)
the amount of each reserve or impound being held by Lender; and (iv) the
principal balance and all other amounts owing under the Loan. Inclusion of such
certifications shall not be a condition to Closing.
9.3.5 Any transfer fee, costs or expenses charged by Lender in connection
with its consent to the transfer of the Interests to Purchaser ("Lender Fees")
shall be paid by Purchaser. Purchaser shall, no later than the Loan Submission
Date, pay to Lender any review fees and make any deposit of legal and other
third party fees required by the Lender as a condition to its review of the
request for consent to the transfer.
9.3.6 Purchaser shall not be obligated to enter into any agreements with
Lender that would modify the economic terms of the Loan, materially increase the
obligations of the borrower beyond those of the applicable Company as borrower,
or of the Substitute Indemnitor beyond those of Sellers' Affiliates as
indemnitors, under the Loan Documents or materially reduce the rights of the
borrower under the Loan Documents.
9.4 Audit. Purchaser shall have the right after Closing to conduct an audit of
the operating records for the Property for the period from the date of the
Company's acquisition of the applicable Center to the Closing Date. Sellers
agree to reasonably cooperate with Purchaser, at no cost to Sellers, and make
available for review such operating records, including original invoices and
bank statements, that were not delivered to Purchaser at Closing, to the extent
such information is in the possession of Sellers or the Property Manager. This
provision shall survive the Closing.
9.5 Insurance Claims. The parties acknowledge that the Companies are "insureds"
under the insurance policies maintained by the Companies, Sellers and their
Affiliates with respect to the Property and other assets owned by Sellers and
their Affiliates. Sellers intend to remove the Companies as insureds under all
such policies, effective as of the Closing Date, and distribute to Sellers any
right the Companies may have to receive insurance proceeds under any such
policies (except as otherwise provided in Article 8 hereof). Nothing herein
shall alter any rights the Companies may have from and after Closing under the
Companies' commercial general liability and umbrella liability policies
(collectively, "Liability Policies") for periods up to the Closing Date,
including rights in respect of claims made or suits brought after Closing for
occurrences that took place prior to Closing. In the event that any claim is
made or suit is filed against either Company after Closing that is covered by
the Liability Policies, Purchaser shall cause such Company to notify Sellers and
the insurance carrier within ten (10) days after the Company receives notice of
such claim or suit.
28
ARTICLE 10
REMEDIES
10.1 Sellers' Remedies. In the event Purchaser fails to perform its obligations
pursuant to this Contract for any reason except (a) failure by Sellers to
perform any of their obligations hereunder, (b) if any of the representations or
warranties of Sellers hereunder is incorrect in any material respect as of the
Effective Date, or (c) the termination of this Contract by Sellers or Purchaser
pursuant to the terms hereof (other than this Article 10), and Purchaser fails
to cure such failure within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice thereof,
Sellers shall be entitled as their sole remedy hereunder to terminate this
Contract and recover the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, in full satisfaction of claims against Purchaser hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser fails to perform its obligation to
close this transaction on the Closing Date as set forth herein, then Purchaser
shall not be entitled to the notice and 10-day cure period described in the
preceding sentence. Sellers and Purchaser agree that Sellers' damages resulting
from Purchaser's default are difficult, if not impossible, to determine and the
Xxxxxxx Money is a fair estimate of those damages which has been agreed to in an
effort to cause the amount of said damages to be certain.
10.2 Purchaser's Remedies. In the event Sellers fail to perform their
obligations pursuant to this Contract for any reason except (a) failure by
Purchaser to perform hereunder, (b) if any of the representations or warranties
of Purchaser hereunder is incorrect in any material respect on the Effective
Date, or (b) a termination of this Contract by Sellers or Purchaser pursuant to
an express right to terminate set forth herein, Purchaser may, as its sole
remedy, either terminate this Contract by giving Sellers timely written notice
of such election prior to or at Closing or enforce specific performance of this
Contract against Sellers. In the event Purchaser elects to terminate this
Contract, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser and thereafter,
except for the Surviving Obligations, neither Purchaser nor Sellers shall have
any further rights or obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
the event that Seller has transferred or intentionally encumbered the Interests
or the Property prior to Closing, making specific performance unavailable as a
remedy, Purchaser shall have the right to xxx for damages, provided that the
amount of such damages shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the aggregate amount
of Purchaser's actual out of pocket costs and expenses in connection with the
negotiation of this Contract and the transactions contemplated hereby and the
investigations performed during the Inspection Period, including reasonable
attorneys fees (collectively, "Purchaser's Costs"), and (ii) $100,000 for each
Center.
10.3 Attorney's Fees. In the event either party hereto is required to employ an
attorney because of the other party's default, the defaulting party shall pay
the nondefaulting party's reasonable attorney's fees incurred in the enforcement
of this Contract.
10.4 Disposition of Xxxxxxx Money. In the event of a termination of this
Contract by either Sellers or Purchaser, the Title Company is authorized to
deliver the Xxxxxxx Money to the party entitled to same pursuant to the terms
hereof on or before the fifth (5th) business day following receipt by the Title
Company and the nonterminating party of written notice of such termination from
the terminating party, unless the other party hereto notifies the Title Company
that it disputes the right of the other party to receive the Xxxxxxx Money prior
to the expiration of such
29
five (5) day period. In such event the Title Company shall interplead the
Xxxxxxx Money into a court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which the
Property is located, unless otherwise instructed by both Purchaser and Sellers.
All attorneys' fees and costs and expenses of the Title Company incurred in
connection with such interpleader shall be assessed against the party that is
not awarded the Xxxxxxx Money in the event that such Xxxxxxx Money is interplead
or if the Xxxxxxx Money is distributed in part to both parties, then in the
inverse proportion of such distribution.

Agreement and any interest or earnings thereon shall hereinafter be referred to
as the "FUND").
C. Escrow Agent agrees to act as escrow agent to hold, administer, invest
and disburse the Fund on the terms and conditions herein set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and in consideration of

5. INTENTIONALLY DELETED.
6. TERMINATION BY SELLER OR PURCHASER.
(a) At any time after July 8, 2004, upon not less than five (5)

that (i) Purchaser has breached or otherwise defaulted and failed to perform its
obligations under the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) Seller is entitled to retain
the Fund on account thereof, as provided in the Purchase Agreement, Escrow Agent
shall deliver the Fund to Seller; provided, however, that if Purchaser shall,

retain the Fund until it receives written instructions executed by both Seller
and Purchaser as to the disposition and disbursement of the Fund, or until
ordered by final court order, decree or judgment, which has not been appealed,
to deliver the Fund to a particular party, in which event the Fund shall be
delivered in accordance with such notice, instruction, order, decree or
judgment.
(b) At any time after July 8, 2004, upon not less than five (5)
business days' prior written notice given by Purchaser and delivered to Seller
and Escrow Agent in accordance with Paragraph 10 hereof, asserting that
Purchaser is entitled to the return of the Fund under the Purchase Agreement,
Escrow Agent shall deliver the Fund to Purchaser; provided, however, that if
Seller shall, within said five (5) business day period, deliver to Purchaser and
Escrow Agent a written notice that it disputes Purchaser's claim or right to
receive back the Fund, Escrow Agent shall retain the Fund until it receives
written instructions executed by both Seller and Purchaser as to the disposition
and disbursement of the Fund, or until ordered by final court order, decree or
judgment, which has not been appealed, to deliver the Fund to a particular
party, in which event the Fund shall be delivered in accordance with such
notice, instruction, order, decree or judgment.
2
In the event either (a) or (b) of this paragraph shall occur, Purchaser's
or Seller's notice to Escrow Agent shall include a statement on which Escrow
Agent may rely, that Purchaser or Seller has notified the other party that the
requesting party is entitled to the Fund.
7. DISBURSEMENT AT CLOSING.
Subject to Paragraphs 4 and 6 hereof, Escrow Agent shall at Closing
transfer the Fund to the order of Seller in accordance with the Purchase
Agreement.
8. ESCROW AGENT.
(a) Escrow Agent shall hold possession of and solely keep all of the
Fund subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and shall deliver
and dispose of the same according to the terms and conditions hereof, and shall
deal with the parties hereto in relation to the sums so escrowed fairly and
impartially according to the intent of the parties as herein expressed, provided
however that Escrow Agent is to be considered as a depository only, shall not be
deemed to be a party to any document other than this Agreement, and shall not be
responsible or liable in any manner whatsoever for the sufficiency, manner of
execution, or validity of any written instructions, certificates or any other
documents received by it, nor as to the identity, authority or rights of any
persons executing the same. Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely at all times
on instructions given by Seller and/or Purchaser, as the case may be and as
required hereunder, without any necessity of verifying the authority therefor.
Notices given (i) by Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx and Xxxx, as counsel to and on
behalf of Purchaser, shall be deemed given by Purchaser, and (ii) by Xxxxxx,

from any claims or demands arising out of its actions hereunder that are
consistent with the preceding sentence, and hereby agree to indemnify Escrow
Agent from any claims or demands for losses arising out of its activities
hereunder.

result of any disagreement between them or adverse demands and claims being made

Escrow Agent and shall reimburse Escrow Agent on demand for all costs, expenses
and counsel fees it shall incur or be compelled to pay by reason of such
litigation, including reasonable compensation to Escrow Agent for time expended
in connection with any such dispute or litigation.
(d) In taking or omitting to take any action whatsoever hereunder,
Escrow Agent shall be protected in relying upon any notice, paper, or other
document
3
believed by it to be genuine, or upon evidence deemed by it to be sufficient,
and in no event shall Escrow Agent be liable hereunder for any act performed or
omitted to be performed by it hereunder in the absence of gross negligence or
bad faith. Escrow Agent may consult with counsel in connection with its duties
hereunder and shall be fully protected in any act taken, suffered or permitted
by it in good faith and without gross negligence in accordance with the advice
of such counsel.
(e) Escrow Agent is acting, and may continue to act, as attorney to
Purchaser in connection with any matters related to the Purchase Agreement
whether or not the Fund is being held by Xxxxx, McClosky, Smith, Xxxxxxxx &
Xxxxxxx, P.A. or it has been delivered to a substitute impartial party or to a
court of competent jurisdiction.
