PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of May 12, 2023 (the “Effective Date”) by and between AEI Income & Growth Fund 26, LLC a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”) and Torrey Realty Holdings, Inc., a California corporation, and/or assigns (“Buyer”). Seller desires to sell, and Buyer desires to purchase, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in the real property and improvements thereupon located at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx as more particularly described on Exhibit “A” attached hereto (the “Property”).
In consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby mutually acknowledged, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:
1.
Property. The property to be sold by Seller to Buyer in this transaction consists of an undivided 100% interest in the Property. Seller owns no interest in any personalty with respect to the Property.
2.
Lease. The Property is being sold subject to an existing Lease of the Property dated November 22, 2016, by and between Seller, as lessor, and The Cellular Connection, LLC, an Indiana limited liability company, as lessee (the “Tenant”) (collectively, the “Lease”). The Seller agrees to sell and convey to Buyer, and Xxxxx agrees to purchase from Seller, all right, title, and interest of Seller in and to all leases and other agreements to occupy all or any portion of the Property that are in effect on the Effective Date or which Seller executed prior to Closing (as hereinafter defined) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
3.
Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for the Property is $545,000 (the “Purchase Price”). If all conditions precedent to Buyer’s obligations to purchase have been satisfied, Buyer shall deposit the Purchase Price with the Escrow Agent (as defined below) on or before the Closing Date.
4.
Terms. The Purchase Price will be paid by Xxxxx as follows:
a)
Upon the Effective Date of this Agreement, Buyer will deposit $20,000 (the “Xxxxxxx Money”) into an interest-bearing account with First American Title Insurance Company, 0000 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000, Attn: Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx; phone number: (000) 000-0000; email: xxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx (the “Title Company” or “Escrow Agent”). Upon expiration or Xxxxx’s waiver of the Review Period (as defined below), Xxxxxxx Money shall become non-refundable. The Xxxxxxx Money shall be credited against the Purchase Price when and if escrow closes and the sale is completed.
b)
Buyer will deposit the balance of the Purchase Price into escrow in sufficient time to allow escrow to close on the Closing Date.
5.
Due Diligence. Buyer will have thirty (30) days from the date Buyer receives Seller’s Materials, (the “Review Period”) to conduct all of its inspections and due diligence and satisfy itself regarding the Property and this transaction. Xxxxx agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless for any loss or damage to the Property or persons caused by Buyer or its agents arising out of such physical inspections of the Property, and this indemnity shall survive Closing or termination of this Agreement. Within five (5) days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Seller shall provide, to the extent such items are in its possession, the items listed on Exhibit “B” (“Seller’s Materials”).
Buyer may cancel this Agreement before the expiration of the Review Period for any reason in its sole discretion by delivering a cancellation notice to Seller and Escrow Agent prior to the expiration of the Review Period. If Buyer finds the Property to be acceptable in the Review Period, Buyer shall provide written notification to Seller of the waiver of its Review Period contingency prior to the expiration of the Review Period, in which case the Xxxxxxx Money shall be non-refundable unless Seller shall default hereunder, or in the event of a casualty or condemnation, subject to the provisions of Section 16 below. If this Agreement is not cancelled as set forth above, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be non-refundable unless Seller shall default hereunder.
If the Agreement is terminated, as permitted under this Section, except for any escrow cancellation fees charged by the Title Company and any liabilities under the first paragraph of Section 5 of this Agreement and those provisions stating otherwise (which will survive), Seller (after execution of such documents reasonably requested by Seller to evidence the termination hereof) shall return to Buyer its Xxxxxxx Money and Buyer will have absolutely no rights, claims or interest of any type in connection with the Property or this transaction, regardless of any alleged conduct by Xxxxx, Seller or anyone else.
If Xxxxx fails to close this transaction at no fault of Seller, Buyer will be irrevocably deemed in default of this Agreement. Upon default by Buyer, Seller may, as its option, retain the Xxxxxxx Money as its sole and exclusive remedy and declare this Agreement null and void, in which event Buyer will be deemed to have cancelled this Agreement and relinquish all rights in and to the Property, or Seller may exercise its rights hereunder. The Review Period will be deemed satisfied if Buyer has deposited the Xxxxxxx Money as required by Section 4 hereof, and this agreement is not cancelled.
6.
Closing Date. Escrow shall close (the “Closing”) on or before the later of (i) ten (10) days following the expiration of the Review Period or (ii) three (3) business days following the receipt of the Tenant Estoppel certificate, (the “Closing Date”), unless the parties mutually agree otherwise.
7.
Escrow. Escrow shall be opened upon execution of this Agreement by both parties. A copy of this Agreement will be delivered to the Title Company and will serve as escrow instructions together with the Title Company’s standard instructions, any additional instructions required by Seller and/or Buyer or their respective counsels, and any additional instructions required by the Title Company to clarify its rights and duties. The parties agree to sign these additional instructions. If there is any conflict between these other instructions and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.
2
8.
Title. Seller, at its sole expense, within three (3) business days of the Effective Date, shall order an updated title insurance commitment, along with underlying documents to include any easement or declarations/CAM affecting the Property, for an Owner’s Title Insurance Policy (collectively, the “Title Commitment”). Closing will be conditioned on the agreement of the Title Company to issue an Owner’s Title Insurance Policy, dated as of the Closing Date, in an amount equal to the Purchase Price, insuring that Buyer will own insurable fee simple title to the Property subject only to: the Title Company’s standard exceptions; current real property taxes and assessments; survey exceptions; the rights of parties in possession pursuant to the Lease; the Permitted Exceptions, as defined herein. Buyer shall, at its sole expense, order and obtain an updated survey of the Property. Buyer hereby acknowledges that if Xxxxx desires to remove the survey exception from the Title Commitment, it shall be Buyer’s responsibility to obtain such updated survey. Seller shall have no obligation to execute any “no change” or equivalent affidavit with respect to the existing survey of the real property, nor shall Seller have any obligation to make any representations or warranties regarding such survey or any measurements or depictions thereon.
Buyer shall be allowed ten (10) days after receipt of said Title Commitment for examination and the making of any title objections thereto (the “Title Objections”), said Title Objections to be made in writing or deemed waived (such written notice of Buyer’s Title Objections to be hereinafter referred to as the “Notice of Objections”). Except as set forth below, any title exception disclosed by the Title Commitment or Xxxxx’s survey and not listed in such Notice of Objections shall be deemed a “Permitted Title Exception” under this Agreement.
If Seller shall fail to cure (or commence to cure) or eliminate all the Title Objections listed in the Notice of Defect within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Notice of Objections (the “Title Cure Period”), then Buyer may elect either to: (a) accept the Property subject to the title exception(s) not cured (in which case such title exception(s) shall become a Permitted Title Exception(s) hereunder), or (b) terminate this Agreement.
In the event that Xxxxxx agrees to cure a Title Objection and commences such cure, but the same cannot be cured within the Title Cure Period, the Buyer may, by written notice to Seller, preserve such Title Objection such that the cure of such Title Objection shall be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to close. Buyer shall elect to either accept the Property subject to the Permitted Exceptions or terminate the Agreement by written notice to Seller delivered within three (3) business days following the end of the Title Cure Period, and the failure to deliver such election notice shall constitute an election to proceed under clause (a) above. Any mortgage, security deed, lien, lis pendens, judgment, or other claim in a liquidated amount incurred by Seller during Seller’s ownership of the Property and which constitutes an exception to the title to the Property shall not in any event be a Permitted Title Exception hereunder, but such claim shall be paid or satisfied out of the sums payable by Buyer at Closing, and the proceeds of sale payable to Seller shall be reduced accordingly; provided that such claim must have arisen directly from the acts or omissions of Seller, and not those of the Tenant.
At any time after the Effective Date of this Agreement and prior to Closing, Buyer shall have the right to notify Seller of any additional title exception which first appears of record after the effective date of the Title Commitment, or otherwise becomes known to Buyer. Buyer shall be
3
allowed three (3) business days after notice of such additional title exception for examination and the making of any new Title Objections thereto by written notice to Seller (“Notice of New Objections”). Except as set forth herein, any title exception disclosed to Buyer and not listed in such Notice of New Objections shall be deemed a Permitted Title Exception. If Seller shall fail to cure (or commence to cure) or eliminate all the new Title Objections listed in the Notice of New Objections within ten (10) business days after receipt of the Notice of New Objections (the “Second Title Cure Period”), then Buyer may elect either to: (a) accept the Property subject to the new title exception(s) not cured (in which case such new title exception(s) shall become a Permitted Title Exception(s) hereunder), or (b) terminate this Agreement.
9.
Closing Costs. Seller shall pay the search and exam fees charged by the title company to issue the Title Commitment. Seller shall pay all transfer taxes (state, county, and municipal, as applicable). Seller shall pay any and all brokerage commissions per separate agreement which shall include a 1% fee to Buyer’s Broker (Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx). Except as set forth above, both parties represent to the other that they have not been represented by a broker, and agree to hold the other harmless from any claim of brokerage commission by, through, or as a result of representation of the other party.
Buyer shall pay the full cost of the Owner’s Title Insurance Policy premium and any endorsements, and the full cost of any extended coverage as Buyer may require for such policy. Buyer will pay any and all recording fees. Buyer will pay the cost of updating any due diligence provided by Seller, including the cost of an updated survey to be ordered by Xxxxx as set forth in Section 8 above. Xxxxx and Seller will split all escrow and closing fees equally. Each party will pay its own attorney’s fees and costs to document and close this transaction.
10.
Real Estate Taxes, Special Assessments and Prorations. The responsibility for all real property taxes for the current tax period and all expenses (including but not limited to common area maintenance expenses and fees), if any, that are the responsibility of Seller and not paid by or reimbursed by Xxxxxx, shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date.
All income and all operating expenses from the Property, if any, shall be prorated between the parties and adjusted by them as of the Closing Date. Seller shall be entitled to all income earned, and shall be responsible for all expenses incurred, prior to the Closing Date. Buyer shall be entitled to all income earned, and shall be responsible for all operating expenses of the Property incurred, on and after the Closing Date.
