(viii) Unpaid and delinquent rent collected by Seller and Purchaser after the date of Closing shall be delivered as follows: (a) if Seller collects any unpaid or delinquent rent for the Property, Seller shall, within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof, deliver to Purchaser any such rent which Purchaser is entitled to hereunder relating to the date of Closing and any period thereafter, and (b) if Purchaser collects any unpaid or delinquent rent from the Property, Purchaser shall, within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof, deliver to Seller any such rent which Seller is entitled to hereunder relating to the period prior to the date of Closing. Rents and other charges and revenues that are delinquent (or payable but unpaid) as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated on the Closing Date. All rent received by Seller or Purchaser after the date of Closing shall be applied first to current rentals and then to delinquent rentals, if any, in inverse order of maturity. If any rents are delinquent as of the Closing then Purchaser will make a good faith effort for a period of ninety (90) days after Closing to collect such delinquent rents, but Purchaser will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other formal collection procedures to collect delinquent rents. Seller shall have the right, after Closing, to proceed against tenants for all rental amounts allocable to the period of Seller’s ownership of the Property (provided that in no event shall Seller have any right to seek to evict the applicable tenant, terminate the applicable Lease or otherwise disturb such tenant’s occupancy). In the event that there shall be any rents or other charges under the Leases which, although relating to a period prior to Closing, do not become due and payable until after Closing or are paid prior to Closing but are subject to adjustment after Closing (such as year end common area expense reimbursements and the like), then any rents or charges of such type received by Purchaser or its agents or Seller or its agents subsequent to Closing shall, to the extent applicable to a period extending through the Closing, be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of Closing and Seller’s portion thereof shall be remitted promptly to Seller by Purchaser.
(c) The provisions of this Section 4.5 shall survive Closing for a period of six (6) months.

Seller shall pay (i) the fees of any counsel representing it in connection with this transaction; (ii) the transfer fees, documentary taxes, and related, similar transfer taxes; (iii) one-half (1/2) of any escrow fee which may be charged by Title Company; (iv) the fees for recording the Deed; and (v) the premium for the ALTA standard portion of the Title Policy in the amount of the Purchase Price (but excluding the cost of any extended coverage, any endorsements, and lender’s policy requested by Purchaser). Purchaser shall pay (i) the fees of any counsel representing Purchaser in connection with this transaction; (ii) for the cost of the any update or recertification of the Survey; (iii) the cost of any extended coverage to the Title Policy and any endorsements to the Title Policy; (iv) one-half (1/2) of any escrow fees charged by Title Company; and (v) all costs relating to obtaining any of Purchaser’s financing and any fees associated with obtaining the lender’s title policy in connection therewith. All other costs and expenses incident to this transaction and the closing thereof shall be paid by the party incurring same.
4.7 Conditions Precedent to Obligation of Purchaser. The obligations of Purchaser to consummate the transaction hereunder shall be subject to the following conditions, any or all of which may be waived by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion (individually and collectively, as the context may require “Purchaser’s Conditions Precedent”):
(a) Subject to Section 5.3, all of the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date.
(b) Seller shall have performed and observed, in all material respects, all covenants and agreements of this Agreement to be performed and observed by Seller as of the Closing Date.

Purchaser shall have no right to object to a Tenant Estoppel Certificate solely because it limits one or more statements to the tenant’s knowledge or contains a general conditional statement such as “we reserve all rights” or “subject to our audit rights as set forth in the Lease.” Further, any Tenant Estoppel Certificates meeting the requirements of this Section 4.7(c) shall count towards the Tenant Estoppel Certificate requirement, unless it discloses any default beyond applicable notice or cure periods, by Seller not within Purchaser’s knowledge as of the end of the Inspection Period. Purchaser shall have right to approve completed Tenant Estoppel Certificates prior to delivery to tenants (provided that Purchaser shall review and approve or disapprove such Tenant Estoppel Certificates within three (3) business days of delivery (and failing to respond shall be deemed approved)). Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to procure from each of the tenants under the Leases a completed and signed Tenant Estoppel Certificate, for delivery in accordance with this Section; provided, Seller’s obligation to use reasonable efforts to obtain the Tenant Estoppel Certificates as required above shall be limited to making requests therefor and reasonable follow-up, but shall not include the payment of any money, issuance of any default notices or any other extraordinary action by Seller.
(d) Purchaser shall have received or the Title Company shall be irrevocably and unconditionally committed to issuing the Title Policy.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if Seller is unable to timely satisfy Purchaser’s Condition Precedents set forth above prior to the Closing Date, then, (i) Seller may, if it so elects and without any abatement in the Purchase Price, adjourn the Closing by delivering written notice(s) to Purchaser (a “Condition Precedent Extension Notice”) specifying such new Closing Date for such longer period as may be necessary to satisfy such Purchaser’s Condition Precedent (but in no event more than ten (10) business days), during which Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy Purchaser’s Conditions Precedent, (ii) with respect to the condition precedent for Tenant Estoppel Certificates in Section 4.7(c), Seller or Purchaser may, if it so elects and without any abatement in the Purchase Price, adjourn the Closing by delivering a Condition Precedent Extension Notice specifying such new Closing Date for such longer period as may be necessary to satisfy such Purchaser’s Condition Precedent (but in no event more than ten (10) business days, which may be extended an additional five (5) business days if not satisfied within such ten (10) business day period), and (iii) if, after any such extension, the Purchaser’s Conditions Precedent continue not to be satisfied (and Purchaser has not waived the same) or Seller does not elect such extension and, in either case, such failure of Purchaser’s Condition Precedent is not the result of Seller’s default hereunder, then Purchaser shall be entitled to either (a) terminate this Agreement by notice thereof to Seller (in which event the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive the Initial Deposit and the Additional Deposit (and Seller shall promptly deliver the Additional Deposit to Purchaser) and neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder, except those expressly stated to survive the termination hereof) or, (b) consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

5.3 Survival of Seller’s Representations and Warranties.
(a) If Seller becomes aware prior to the Closing that any of its representations and warranties are untrue or has materially changed that would have a material and adverse effect on the Property necessitating update and disclosure to Purchaser, then upon written notice to Purchaser (“Seller’s Update Notice”) Seller shall have the right and obligation to promptly update its representations and warranties to reflect the then current actual facts, status, conditions, or and circumstances. If Purchaser obtains actual knowledge (or is deemed to know in accordance with the last sentence of this paragraph) prior to Closing of any material breach or inaccuracy in Seller’s representations or warranties under this Agreement that would have a material and adverse effect on the Property, through Seller’s Update Notice, or through Purchaser’s own investigations, then as Purchaser’s sole remedy, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and receive a full refund of the Initial Deposit and the Additional Deposit and the Extension Deposits (if applicable) by written notice to Seller not later than five (5) business days after receiving Seller’s Update Notice or otherwise becoming aware of such breached or inaccurate representation or warranty. If Purchaser does not timely notify Seller of Purchaser’s election to terminate this Agreement as a consequence of Seller’s Update Notice or upon becoming aware that Seller’s representation or warranty is untrue or materially inaccurate, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any right or remedy that it otherwise might have as a consequence thereof and the applicable representation or warranty shall be deemed modified accordingly. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) Seller shall have no liability, except as specifically stated to the contrary in this Section 5.3(a), for any misrepresentation or breach of warranty of which Purchaser becomes aware prior to Closing through Seller’s Update Notice or through Purchaser’s own investigations and (ii) all of Seller’s representations and warranties shall automatically be deemed modified to reflect any matters set forth in the Due Diligence Items or any other matters or information disclosed in writing to Purchaser or its agents, attorneys or representatives (including in any third party reports obtained by such persons) prior to the Closing.
(b) Except for matters that Purchaser obtains actual knowledge (or is deemed to know) of prior to Closing (which shall not survive the Closing), the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 5.1 hereof shall survive Closing for a period of nine (9) months only (the “Survival Period”). No claim for a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller set forth in Section 5.1 hereof shall be actionable or payable unless the amount of such claim or claims, individually or in the aggregate, exceeds $75,000, written notice containing a description of the specific nature of such breach shall have been given by Purchaser to Seller prior to the expiration of the Survival Period and an action shall have been commenced by Purchaser against Seller within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Survival Period.

Seller shall not, without prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent may be granted or withheld (i) in Purchaser’s reasonable discretion prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period (it being agreed that Purchaser is under no obligation to approve any renewal or modification of any Lease that would provide for any extension of the existing term under such Lease or any new Lease, and that such disapproval shall be deemed to be reasonable under this clause (i)) and (ii) in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion after expiration of the Inspection Period, enter into any new tenant lease agreements, lease extensions or other similar use agreements (including, without limitation, any amendment, renewal, expansion or modification to, or termination of, any existing Lease); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any right exercised by a tenant pursuant to the terms of its lease which Seller does not have approval or consent rights over. At Closing, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for any Tenant Inducement Costs, leasing commissions or other expenses, including legal fees, incurred by Seller pursuant to a renewal or a modification or a new Lease approved by Purchaser. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to timely comply with all of its obligations in all material respects under the Leases.

10.26 California Provisions. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Section 10.26 and the remainder of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 10.26 shall control:
(a) Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that the Disclosure Statutes (as defined below) provide that a seller of real property must make certain disclosures regarding certain natural hazards potentially affecting the property, as more particularly provided therein. As used in this Agreement, “Disclosure Statutes” means, collectively, California Government Code Sections 8589.3, 8589.4 and 51183.5, California Public Resources Code Sections 2621.9, 2694 and 4136 and any other statutes that require Seller to make disclosures concerning the Property. By execution of this Agreement, Seller instructs Title Company to deliver to Purchaser (and if Title Company fails to deliver, Purchaser shall request from Title Company) a Natural Hazard Disclosure Report for the Property (the “Report”). Purchaser hereby agrees as follows with respect to the Disclosure Statutes and the Report: (i) the delivery of the Report to Purchaser shall be deemed to satisfy all obligations and requirements of Seller under the Disclosure Statutes; (ii) Seller shall not be liable for any error or inaccuracy in, or omission from, the information in the Report; and (iii) the Report is being furnished by Seller for purposes of complying with the Disclosure Statutes and shall not be deemed to constitute a representation or warranty by Seller as to the presence or absence in, at or around of the Property of the conditions that are the subject of the Disclosure Statutes. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in the Report releases Purchaser from its obligation to fully investigate and satisfy itself with the condition of the Property prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, including, without limitation, whether the Property is located in any Natural Hazard Area. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that the matters set forth in the Report may change on or prior to the Closing and that Seller has no obligation to update, modify or supplement the Report. Purchaser is solely responsible for preparing and delivering its own Report to subsequent prospective purchasers of the Property.
(b) In accordance with the requirements of California Civil Code Section 1101.5(e), Seller hereby discloses to Purchaser the following: (1) California Civil Code Section 1101.5(a) provides as follows: “On or before January 1, 2019, all noncompliant plumbing fixtures in any multifamily residential real property and in any commercial real property shall be replaced with water-conserving plumbing fixtures”; and (2) to Seller’s knowledge, the Property does not have any such noncompliant plumbing fixtures.
(c) Seller and Purchaser each expressly waive the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1662 and hereby agree that the provisions of Article VII shall govern the parties’ obligations in the event of any damage or destruction to the Property or the taking of all or any part of the Property, as applicable.
(d) IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED PURSUANT TO SECTION 6.1, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES IN THE EVENT OF A DEFAULT BY PURCHASER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN, AND THAT SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES REPRESENT THE PARTIES’ BEST ESTIMATE OF SUCH DAMAGES. SUCH RETENTION OF THE INITIAL DEPOSIT AND THE ADDITIONAL DEPOSIT (AND THE EXTENSION DEPOSITS, IF APPLICABLE) BY SELLER IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, AND SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 3275 OR SECTION 3369 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE OR ANY SIMILAR PROVISION.
