4.2.1

Buyer’s Objections to Title.

(a)

Prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall have the right to object in writing to any title matters that appear on the Title Commitment or Survey. In addition, after expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall have the right to object in writing to any title matters that (i) are not Permitted Exceptions, and (ii) materially adversely affect Buyer’s title to, or Buyer’s ability to use as intended by Buyer, the Real Property, and (iii) first appear on any supplemental title reports or updates to the Title Commitment issued after expiration of the Due Diligence Period, so long as such objection is made by Buyer within five (5) business days after Buyer becomes aware of the same (but in any event prior to the Closing Date). Unless Buyer is entitled to and does timely object to any such title matters, all such title matters shall be deemed to constitute additional Permitted Exceptions. Any exceptions which are timely objected to by Buyer shall be herein collectively called the “Title Objections.”

(b)

If this Agreement is not terminated by Buyer in accordance with the provisions hereof, Seller shall, at Closing, remove or cause to be removed any Title Objections to the extent (and only to the extent) that (i) such Title Objections have not been caused by Buyer or any Buyer, Representatives, and (ii) such Title Objections are either (A) liens evidencing monetary encumbrances (other than liens for non-delinquent general real estate taxes), or (B) liens created or suffered to exist by Seller or its agents and affiliates but only to the extent such liens are created after the date of this Agreement in violation of Section 4.2.3 (collectively, the “Required Exceptions”). In addition, Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any other Title Objections, as provided in Section 4.2.2.

(c)

To the extent that the same do not constitute Required Exceptions, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing within ten (10) days after receipt of Buyer’s notice of Title Objections (but in any event, prior to the Closing Date) whether Seller elects to remove the same. If Seller elects not to remove one or more of such Title Objections, then within five (5) days after Seller’s election (but in any event, prior to the Closing Date), Buyer may elect in writing to either (i) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be paid to Buyer, and thereafter, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for obligations that

expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, or (ii) waive such Title Objections, in which event the Closing shall occur as herein provided without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price. Any such Title Objection so waived (or deemed waived) by Buyer shall be deemed to constitute an additional Permitted Exception, and the Closing shall occur as herein provided without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price.

(d)

If Seller is unable, after using good faith, commercially reasonably efforts, to remove any Required Exceptions or other Title Objections that it has previously elected to remove prior to the Closing, Buyer may at Closing elect either to (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit shall be paid to Buyer, and thereafter, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, or (b) waive such Title Objections, in which event the Closing shall occur as herein provided without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price (except that if Buyer uses its own funds to cure any Title Exceptions consisting of monetary liens, Buyer shall be entitled to a corresponding credit against the Purchase Price). Seller shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing (not to exceed ninety (90) days) for the purpose of the removal of any Required Exceptions or other Title Objections, which removal will be deemed effected, but only if specifically agreed to in writing by Buyer, by the issuance of title insurance eliminating or insuring against the effect of the Title Objections as provided in Section 4.2.2.

4.2.2

Discharge of Title Objections. If on the Closing Date there are any Required Exceptions or any other Title Objections which Seller has elected to pay and discharge, Seller may use any portion of the Purchase Price to satisfy the same, provided Seller shall either (a) deliver to Buyer at the Closing instruments in recordable form and sufficient to cause such Title Objections to be released of record, together with the cost of recording or filing such instruments, or (b) if specifically agreed to in writing by Buyer, cause the Title Company to insure over the same, without any additional cost to Buyer, whether such insurance is made available in consideration of payment, bonding, indemnity of Seller or otherwise, provided that any such insurance over any matter other than a monetary lien shall be subject to Buyer’s written approval.

4.2.3

No New Exceptions. From and after the Effective Date, Seller shall not execute any deed, easement, restriction, covenant or other matter affecting title to the Property unless Buyer has received a copy thereof and has approved the same in writing. If Buyer fails to object in writing to any such proposed instrument within five (5) business days after receipt of such instrument, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the proposed instrument. Buyer shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval with respect to any such instrument.

4.3

Title Insurance. At Closing, the Title Company shall issue to Buyer the Owner’s Policy (with all endorsements requested by Buyer, such endorsements at Buyer’s cost) insuring that title to the Real Property is vested in Buyer, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. Buyer shall be entitled to request that the Title Company provide such endorsements (or amendments) to the Owner’s Title Policy as Buyer may reasonably require, provided that the Closing shall not be delayed as a result of Buyer’s request for endorsements.

12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date. Seller shall be entitled to all rents attributable to the period up to but not including the Closing Date. Buyer shall be entitled to all rents attributable to any period on and after the Closing Date. Rents not collected as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated at the time of Closing. After Closing, Buyer shall make a good faith effort for a period not less than ninety (90) days to collect any rents not collected as of the Closing Date on Seller’s behalf and to tender the same to Seller upon receipt (which obligation of Buyer shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein); provided, however, that all rents collected by Buyer on or after the Closing date shall first be applied to all amounts due under the Leases at the time of collection (i.e., current rents and sums due Buyer as the current owner and landlord) with the balance (if any) payable to Seller, but only to the extent of amounts delinquent and actually due Seller (and prorated between Seller and Buyer based upon the Closing Date as previously calculated for collected rents). Seller agrees that the invoicing of delinquent tenants on a monthly basis shall constitute a good faith effort and Buyer shall not be obligated to enforce its rights under the Leases, or threaten such enforcement, or to bring any proceedings in a court of law or equity. Buyer shall not have an exclusive right to collect the sums due Seller under the Leases, and Seller hereby retains its rights to pursue any tenant under the Leases for sums due Seller for periods attributable to Seller’s ownership of the Property; provided, however, that Seller (i) shall be required to notify Buyer in writing of its intention to commence or pursue such legal proceedings; (ii) shall only be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings after the date which is three (3) months after Closing and shall commence such proceeding, if at all, prior to the 1^st anniversary of the Closing Date; and (iii) shall not be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings against any tenant seeking eviction of such tenant or the termination of the underlying lease.

Seller shall be entitled to all such revenues attributable to any period up to, but not including the Closing Date, and Buyer shall be entitled to all such revenues attributable to any period on and after the Closing Date. After Closing, Buyer shall make a good faith effort for a period not less than six (6) months to collect any such revenues not collected as of the Closing Date on Seller’s behalf and to tender the same to Seller upon receipt (which obligation of Buyer shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein); provided, however, that all such other revenues collected by Buyer on or after the Closing Date shall first be applied to all amounts that may be due from such payor to Buyer at the time of collection with the balance (if any) payable to Seller, but only to the extent of amounts delinquent and actually due to Seller. Seller agrees that the invoicing of delinquent payors on a monthly basis shall constitute a good faith effort and Buyer shall not be obligated to enforce its rights under the agreements pursuant to

which such revenues are due, or threaten such enforcement, or to bring any proceedings in a court of law or in equity. Buyer shall not have an exclusive right to collect such revenues, and Seller hereby retains its rights to pursue any parties for sums due Seller for periods attributable to Seller’s ownership of the Property; provided, however, that Seller (i) shall be required to notify Buyer in writing of its intention to commence or pursue such legal proceedings; (ii) shall only be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings after the date which is three (3) months after Closing and shall commence such proceeding, if at all, prior to the 1^st anniversary of the Closing Date; and (iii) to the extent any such delinquent payor is a tenant at the Property, shall not be permitted to commence or pursue any legal proceedings against such tenant seeking eviction of such tenant or the termination of the underlying lease.

The proration of the ad valorem real estate and personal property taxes assessed for the Tax Year in which Closing occurs shall be calculated as follows:

The provisions of this paragraph shall survive Closing and shall not be merged therein.

6.2.2

Insufficient Information. If, at Closing, the real estate and/or personal property tax rate and assessments have not been set for the taxes assessed for the Tax Year in which Closing occurs, then the proration of such taxes shall be based upon the rate and assessments for the preceding Tax Year, and such proration shall be adjusted between Seller and Buyer after Closing upon presentation of written evidence that the actual taxes assessed for the Tax Year in which Closing occurs differ from the amounts used at Closing.

6.2.3

Special Assessments. Seller shall pay all installments of special assessments due and payable prior to the Closing Date, and Buyer shall pay all installments of special assessments due and payable on and after the Closing Date.

If after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period but prior to the Closing, Buyer or any Buyer’s Representative obtains actual knowledge that any of Seller’s Warranties are untrue, inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect, Buyer shall give Seller written notice thereof within ten (10) business days of obtaining such knowledge that the same, individually or collectively, are material (as defined below) (but, in any event, prior to the Closing). If at or prior to the Closing, Seller or any Seller Parties have knowledge that any of Seller’s Warranties are untrue, inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect, Seller shall give Buyer written notice thereof within ten (10) business days of obtaining such knowledge the same, individually or collectively, are material (as defined below) (but, in any event, prior to the Closing).

If Seller is unable to so cure any misrepresentation or breach, then Buyer, as its sole remedy for any and all such materially untrue, inaccurate or incorrect material representations or warranties, shall elect either (a) to waive such misrepresentations or breaches of representations and warranties and consummate the Transaction without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price, or (b) to terminate this Agreement by written notice given to Seller on the Closing Date, in which event this Agreement shall be terminated, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, and, thereafter, neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except as provided in the immediately following sentence

If any such Seller’s Warranty was, to Seller’s or any Seller Parties’ knowledge, materially untrue, inaccurate or incorrect at the time such Seller’s Warranty was made, and as a result thereof, Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement, then Seller shall reimburse Buyer for its actual out-of-pocket costs (not to exceed $50,000) incurred in connection with entering into the letter of intent, entering into this Agreement, investigating the Property and performing its Due Diligence.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate liability of Seller for breaches of Seller’s Warranties herein or in any documents executed by Seller at Closing shall be limited as set forth in Section 14.15 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if the Closing occurs, Buyer hereby expressly waives, relinquishes and releases any right or remedy available to it at law, in equity, under this Agreement or otherwise to make a claim against Seller for damages that Buyer may incur, or to rescind this Agreement and the Transaction, as the result of any of Seller’s Warranties being untrue, inaccurate or incorrect if (a) Buyer knew that such representation or warranty was untrue, inaccurate or incorrect at the time of the Closing, or (b) Buyer’s damages as a result of such representations or warranties being untrue, inaccurate or incorrect are reasonably estimated to aggregate less than $50,000.00.

Seller receives from any governmental authority of the violation of any Laws regulating the condition or use of the Property and if the aggregate cost of such cure is estimated to be $200,000 or less, Seller agrees to grant Buyer a credit at Closing in the amount of such cost.

To Seller’s Obligations. If, on or before the Closing Date, (i) Buyer is in default of any of its obligations hereunder, or (ii) the Closing otherwise fails to occur by reason of Buyer’s failure or refusal to perform its obligations hereunder in a prompt and timely manner, then Seller may elect to (a) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Buyer; or (b) waive the condition and proceed to close the Transaction. If this Agreement is so terminated, then Seller shall be entitled to retain, as its sole and exclusive remedy, the Deposit (less interest earned thereon) as agreed upon and liquidated damages for all loss, damages and expenses suffered by Seller, it being agreed that Seller’s damages are impractical or extremely difficult to ascertain and the amount of the Deposit represents a reasonable estimate of the damages which Seller will sustain in the event of a default hereunder by Buyer, and thereafter neither party to this Agreement shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than any arising under any section herein which expressly provides that it survives the termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 12. - CONDEMNATION/CASUALTY

12.1	Condemnation.

12.1.1

Right to Terminate. If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any significant portion (as hereinafter defined) of the Property is taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending taking which has not yet been consummated), Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of such fact promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof, and, thereafter, either Buyer or Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the other no later than ten (10) days after the giving of

Seller’s notice, and the Closing Date shall be extended, if necessary, to provide sufficient time for Buyer or Seller to make such election. The failure by either Buyer and Seller to so elect in writing to terminate this Agreement within such ten (10) day period shall be deemed an election by such party not to terminate this Agreement. For purposes hereof, a “significant portion” of the Property shall mean such a portion as shall have a value, as reasonably determined by Seller, in excess of Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00). If either party elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, the provisions of Section 12.4 shall apply.

12.1.2

Assignment of Proceeds. If (a) neither Seller nor Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid if all or any significant portion of the Property is taken, or (b) a portion of the Property not constituting a significant portion of the Property is taken or becomes subject to a pending taking, by eminent domain, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price; provided, however, that, at the Closing, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of any award for or other proceeds on account of such taking which have been actually paid to Seller prior to the Closing Date as a result of such taking (less all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by Seller as of the Closing Date in obtaining payment of such award or proceeds) and, to the extent such award or proceeds have not been paid, Seller shall assign to Buyer at the Closing (without recourse to Seller) the rights of Seller to, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and retain, all awards for the taking of the Property or such portion thereof.

12.2

Destruction or Damage. In the event any of the Property is damaged or destroyed prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of such fact promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof. If any such damage or destruction (a) is an insured casualty, and (b) would cost less than Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00) to repair or restore; and then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and Buyer shall acquire the Property upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. In such event, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price equal to the deductible amount applicable under Seller’s casualty policy and all sums collected by Seller under all policies of insurance (excluding loss of rents insurance attributable to the period prior to Closing which shall belong to Seller) less all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by Seller as of the Closing Date in connection with the negotiation and/or settlement of the casualty claim with the insurer (the “Realization Costs”), and Seller shall assign to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all proceeds of any insurance on account of such damage or destruction that remain uncollected (including loss of rents insurance attributable to the period on and after Closing, if available and assignable). In the event the Property is damaged or destroyed prior to the Closing Date and the cost of repair would equal or exceed Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00), or the casualty is an uninsured casualty then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this section, Buyer shall have the right, at its election, to terminate this Agreement. Buyer shall have thirty (30) days after Seller notifies Buyer that a casualty has occurred to make such election by

delivery to Seller of a written election notice (the “Election Notice”) and the Closing Date shall be extended, if necessary, to provide sufficient time for Buyer to make such election. The failure by Buyer to deliver the Election Notice within such thirty (30) day period shall be deemed an election not to terminate this Agreement. In the event Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement as set forth above, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, Seller shall assign to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any and all proceeds of insurance on account of such damage or destruction, if any, and, if the casualty was an insured casualty, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price equal to the deductible amount (less the Realization Costs) under Seller’s casualty insurance policy.

12.3	Insurance. Seller shall maintain all policies of insurance coverage currently in effect relating to the Property through the Closing Date.

12.4

Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 12.1 or Section 12.2, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer. Upon such refund, this Agreement shall terminate and neither party to this Agreement shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than any arising under any section herein which expressly provides that it shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

12.5	Waiver. The provisions of this Article 12 supersede the provisions of any applicable Laws with respect to the subject matter of this Article 12.

If the Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection from the other party to the proposed payment within ten (10) days after the Escrow Agent’s giving of such notice, the Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make such payment.

(d)

The parties acknowledge that the Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that the Escrow Agent shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any Liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Seller or Buyer resulting from the Escrow Agent’s mistake of law respecting the Escrow Agent’s scope or nature of its duties. Seller and Buyer shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against all Liabilities, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred in connection with the performance of the Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by the Escrow Agent in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of the Escrow Agent.
