allocated to Buyer. Without limitation upon the foregoing, the following items

(a) Ad valorem and personal property taxes relating to the Project
for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated between
Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date based upon taxes actually paid by
Seller for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs, if Seller has paid
such taxes prior to Closing, and otherwise upon the ad valorem and personal
property taxes due assuming payment in December of the year of Closing. If the
actual amount of taxes for the calendar year in which the Closing shall occur
is not known as of the Closing Date, the proration shall be based on the amount
of taxes due and payable with respect to the Project using the latest assessed
value and tax rate. All other assessments affecting the Project, if any,
assessed prior to Closing Date, shall be paid by the Seller and if assessed
after the Closing Date, shall be paid by the Buyer.
13
15
(b) Base rents, escalation or reimbursement payments for real
estate and personal property taxes, insurance premiums, CAM or other operating
expenses and charges, payable with respect to the Project for the then current
month shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. Percentage rents for each
Tenant obligated therefor shall be pro-rated on the basis of the number of days
lapsed during the Tenant's percentage rent period as of the Closing Date and
not on the basis of the amount of the Tenant's sales which accrued during such
percentage rent period as of the Closing Date. Such proration may not be
capable of determination at the Closing Date, in which event, such prorations
shall be made post- Closing. Any rent concessions granted by the Seller to
Tenants for free rent, concessions or abatements, which apply to periods after
the Closing Date shall not be prorated but shall be credited to the Buyer.
With respect to any Tenant ("Delinquent Tenant") who owes rents and other
charges which at Closing are past due, such past due rents and other charges
("Delinquencies") shall not be prorated. Buyer shall remit such Delinquencies,
if any, if, as and when collected by Buyer, provided, however, that if a
payment is received by Buyer from a Delinquent Tenant, such payment may be
applied by Buyer first to any rents or other sums that are past due by such
Delinquent Tenant from and after the Closing Date. The right to receive and
collect all rents and profits, delinquent or otherwise, shall be assigned by
Seller to Buyer at Closing.
(c) All other income and ordinary operating expenses of the
Project, including, without limitation, public utility charges, maintenance,
management, and other service charges, and all other normal operating charges
shall be prorated at the Closing effective as of the Closing Date based upon
the best available information. The obligation of the parties to adjust,
post-Closing, and any operating expenses as of the Closing Date, shall, to the
extent unknown or not provided for at Closing, survive the Closing and shall be
paid by the party responsible therefor within ten (10) days after written
demand therefor has been made. Such demand shall include a copy of the
invoice(s) for which payment or reimbursement is sought.
8.4 Deferred Leasing Commissions. The amount of any unpaid
leasing commissions payable on account and over the term of existing Leases or
Leases entered into between the date hereof and the Closing Date shall either
be paid by the Seller or treated as a credit to Buyer. Commissions payable on
account of Leases which are subject to renewal at the option of the Tenant and
with respect to which the options have not been exercised prior to the Closing
Date shall not be covered by the preceding sentence.
8.5 Possession. Possession of the Project shall be delivered to
Buyer by Seller at the Closing, subject to the rights of the Tenants.
8.6 Costs of Closing. Each party shall be responsible for paying
the legal fees of its counsel in negotiating, preparing, and closing the
transaction contemplated by this Contract. Seller shall pay for the cost of
the Survey, title policy premium for a standard ALTA coverage, real estate tax
searches and current UCC searches and Tenant credit checks. Buyer shall pay
the balance of the Owner's Title Policy premium (including the premium for
endorsements required by Buyer), and for the cost of its own engineering and
environmental inspections. All sales, transfer, excise, transaction,
privilege, documentary stamp or similar taxes or fees, and all recording costs
and similar closing costs shall be paid by Seller in connection with the sale
and purchase of the Project under the terms hereof. The parties shall split
the cost of any title company escrow fees. Any other expenses that are incurred
by either party that are expressly identified herein as being the
responsibility of a particular party shall be paid by such party. All other
expenses shall be allocated between the parties in the customary manner for
sales of commercial real properties similar to the Project which are located in

8.7 Provisions of Article VIII to Survive Closing. The
provisions of this Article VIII shall survive the Closing.
ARTICLE IX
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
9.1 Default of Buyer. If Buyer fails or refuses to consummate the
transaction contemplated by this Contract, for any reason other than
termination of this Contract by Buyer pursuant to a right to do so expressly
set forth in this Contract, then such event shall constitute a default by Buyer
hereunder and the Seller may, as the Seller's sole and exclusive remedy for
such default, either (i) bring an action against the Buyer for specific
performance of the Buyer's obligations under this Contract, or (ii) terminate
this Contract by giving written notice thereof to Buyer and the Title Company
at or prior to the Closing Date, whereupon the Title Company shall deliver the
Xxxxxxx Money Deposit (including the interest earned thereon) to the Seller
which shall constitute liquidated damages hereunder and thereafter neither
party hereto shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder. It is
agreed that the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit is a reasonable forecast of just
compensation for the harm that would be caused by such default, which the
parties agree is one that is incapable or very difficult of accurate
estimation, and that payment of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit upon such default
shall constitute full satisfaction of Buyer's obligations hereunder.
9.2 Default of Seller. If Seller fails or refuses to consummate
the sale of the Project to Buyer pursuant to this Contract at the Closing or
fails to perform any of Seller's other obligations hereunder for any reason
other than Buyer's failure to perform Buyer's obligations under this Contract,
then Buyer may, as Buyer's sole and exclusive remedy for such default, either
(i) bring an action against the Seller for specific performance of the Seller's
obligations under this Contract, (ii) terminate this Contract by giving written
notice thereof to Seller and the Title Company at or prior to the Closing Date,
whereupon the Title Company shall deliver the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit (including
the interest earned thereon) to Buyer and thereafter neither party hereto shall
have any further rights or obligations hereunder, or (iii) receive the return
of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and prosecute an action for damages if Seller has
conveyed or hypothecated the Project to a third party in violation of the terms
hereof.
9.3 Xxxxxxx Money. In the event either Seller or Buyer becomes
entitled to the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit upon cancellation of this Contract in
accordance with its terms, such party may deliver a letter of instruction to
the Title Company directing disbursement of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit to the
party entitled thereto. The party delivering such notice to the Title Company
shall concurrently deliver a copy of the notice to the other party hereto.
Upon the expiration of three (3) business days after its receipt of the letter
of instructions, the Title Company may deliver the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit to the
party as specified in the letter of instructions unless, within such three (3)
business day period, the Title Company shall have received a written objection
to such delivery from the other party hereto. In such event, the Title Company
shall not deliver the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit to either party unless it has a
written authorization to do so signed by both parties or a court order has been
issued by a court of competent jurisdiction to deliver the Xxxxxxx Money
Deposit to one of the parties hereto. The Title Company may deposit the
Xxxxxxx Money Deposit into a court of competent jurisdiction and thereafter
shall have no further interest in or responsibility for this Contract or for
the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit.
9.4 Indemnification of Title Company. Each party hereto hereby
indemnifies and holds harmless the Title Company from any loss, damage or claim
therefor arising out of or in connection with the receipt and disposition of
the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit in accordance with the instructions set
15
17
forth in this Contract. These indemnities shall survive the termination of
this Contract or a closing pursuant hereto.
ARTICLE X
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS
10.1 Amount. Seller hereby agrees to pay to Mr. Xxxxxx Xxxxx of
Xxxxxx and Millichap and Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, and any other broker or finder and
responsible for introducing the parties hereto to each other for the purpose of
consummating the transaction contemplated hereby (the "Broker"), for Broker's
services in connection with this transaction, a commission pursuant to a
separate agreement between Seller and Broker.
10.2 Indemnity. Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer that
it has not contacted or entered into any agreement with any real estate broker,
agent, finder, or any other party in connection with this transaction, and that
Seller has not taken any action which would result in any real estate broker's,
finder's, or other fees or commissions being due or payable to any other party
with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby. Buyer hereby represents
and warrants to Seller that Buyer has not contracted or entered into any
agreement with any real estate broker, agent, finder, or other party in
connection with this transaction, other than as identified in Section 10.1, and
that Buyer has not taken any action which would result in any real estate
broker's, finder's, or other fees or commissions being due or payable to any
other party with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby. Each party
hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold the other party harmless from any loss,
liability, damage, cost, or expense (including, but not limited to, reasonable
attorneys' fees) resulting to the other party by reason of a breach of the
representation and warranty made by such party in this Section 10.2. The
indemnities set forth in this Section 10.2 shall survive the Closing.
ARTICLE XI
CASUALTY OR CONDEMNATION
(a) Seller agrees to give Buyer and Title Company prompt notice of
any fire or other casualty affecting the Project or of any actual or threatened
taking or condemnation of all or any portion of the Project. If, prior to the
Closing, there shall occur:
(i) damage to the Project caused by fire or other
casualty; or
(ii) a threatened or actual taking or condemnation of all
or any portion of the Project,
then, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Contract by written notice
delivered to Seller within ten (10) days after Buyer has received notice from
Seller of that event or the date on which Buyer learns of that event, whichever
shall last occur. If Buyer terminates this Contract, the Xxxxxxx Money
Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and the parties shall have no further
obligations under this Contract, or to each other with respect to the subject
matter of this Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the
cost of repairing or restoring such damage shall be covered by available
insurance and such cost shall be less than $100,000, then Buyer shall proceed
to Closing and Seller shall assign at Closing to Buyer its right, title and
interest in the insurance proceeds available to repair or restore the damage or
destruction and to any applicable rent loss insurance and, in addition, Seller
shall credit the Purchase Price with the amount of any deductible under such
insurance policy(s).
16
18
(b) In the event of damage or destruction to the Project, Buyer
may postpone the Closing Date pending a determination of the nature and extent
of such damage or destruction and the availability and adequacy of insurance
proceeds. Such postponement shall be by written notice from Buyer to Seller
and Title Company and shall remain in effect for a period of ten (10) days (the
"Damages Determination Period") following Buyer's determination of the nature
and extent of the damage or destruction and the availability and adequacy of
insurance proceeds for repair or restoration.
(c) If the cost to repair or replace the damage is reasonably
estimated by the Seller's insurance adjuster to exceed $100,000, then at
Buyer's election and in its sole discretion, Buyer may elect to proceed with
the Closing and at the Closing, Seller shall assign to Buyer its right, title
and interest in the insurance proceeds available to repair or restore the
damage or destruction and to any applicable rent loss proceeds, and Seller
shall credit the Purchase Price with the amount of any deductible under such
insurance policy(s).
(d) In the event that Buyer fails to notify Seller and Title
Company of its intention to proceed to Closing and accept as assignment of the
insurance proceeds prior to the expiration of the Damage Determination Period,
the Contract shall automatically terminate and the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall
be returned to Buyer forthwith.
