3.2 It shall be a condition precedent to Closing that all representations, warranties set forth herein shall be true and correct in all material respects, and all covenants set forth herein shall have been fully complied with in all material respects as of the Closing.
3.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained or implied in this Agreement, there are no other conditions to the obligation of the Parties to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement except as expressly set forth in this Section 3.
3.4 If on or before Closing any condition set forth in Section 3.1 or 3.2 has not been satisfied, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.
4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

(a) Assignors are the owners of the Interests and the Interests are not subject to any lien, pledge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever and Assignee shall acquire the same free of any rights or claims thereto by any other party claiming by, through or under Assignors.
(b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Assignors and the performance of the transactions contemplated herein have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate and partnership proceedings and, assuming the due and proper execution and delivery by Assignee and the Operating General Partner, this Assignment is binding upon and enforceable against Assignors in accordance with its terms.

(a) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Assignee and the performance of the transactions contemplated herein have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate and partnership proceedings.
(b) Assuming the due and proper execution and delivery by Assignors, this Assignment is binding upon and enforceable against Assignee in accordance with its terms.
(c) No proceeding before any federal, state, municipal or other governmental department, commission, board or agency is pending against Assignee or, to the knowledge of Assignee, threatened against Assignee pursuant to which an unfavorable judgment would restrain, prohibit, invalidate, set aside, rescind, prevent or make unlawful this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder, nor does Assignee know of any reason to believe any such proceeding will be instituted.

The foregoing representations and warranties are true and correct as of the Effective Date, shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date, and shall survive the Closing and the withdrawal of Assignors from the Partnership; and
(b) The Operating General Partner covenants to Assignors that on or before Closing, the Partnership will have obtained all necessary consents and approvals for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the consents, to the extent required, of all Lenders and the Authority.
