Buyer shall furnish to Seller prior to the expiration of the Examination Period a statement specifying any defects in title and/or the Surveys (the “Objections”). Seller shall notify Buyer within five (5) business days after receipt of the Objections whether Seller will cure the Objections. If Seller does not respond within said five (5) business day period, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the Objections. If Seller does not agree (or is deemed to not agree) to cure the Objections, Buyer shall have the right, by notice given to Seller and Title Insurer within three (3) business days after receipt of Seller’s notice (or within three (3) business days of the expiration of Seller’s five (5) business day response period, if Seller does not respond), either to (a) waive the Objections and proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in which event such Objections shall be Permitted Exceptions, or (b) terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property, in which event a prorata portion of the Xxxxxxx Money shall be paid to Buyer. If Buyer fails to elect to terminate this Agreement by notice given to Seller within said three (3) business day period, then Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have elected to waive the Objections. If Buyer fails to deliver the Objections to Seller prior to the expiration of the Examination Period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to any defect set forth in the Title Report and Survey. If at any time after Buyer’s receipt of the initial Title Report or Survey, any update to the Title Report or Survey discloses any additional item which was not disclosed on any version of or update to a Title Report or Survey delivered to Buyer previously (the “New Exception”), Buyer shall have a period of two (2) business days from the date of its receipt of such update (the “New Exception Review Period”) to review and notify Seller in writing of Buyer’s approval or disapproval of the New Exception, or if no such notice is provided, such New Exception will be deemed to have been waived, in which event such New Exception shall be a Permitted Exception. If Buyer disapproves of the New Exception, Seller may, in its sole discretion, notify Buyer as to whether it is willing to cure the New Exception. If Seller fails to deliver a notice to Buyer within two (2) business days after the receipt of the written New Exception objection notice from Buyer, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the New Exception. If Buyer is dissatisfied with Seller’s response, or lack thereof, Buyer may, as its exclusive remedy, elect, upon written notice to Seller two (2) business days after receipt of Seller’s response (or within two (2) business days of the expiration of Seller’s two (2) business day response period, if Seller does not respond), either: (a) to terminate this Agreement with respect to any such Property, in which event a prorata portion of the Xxxxxxx Money shall be paid to Buyer, or (b) to waive the New Exception and proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in which event such New Exception shall be a Permitted Exception. If Buyer fails to notify Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing sentence within two (2) business days after receipt of Seller’s response (or within two (2) business days of the expiration of Seller’s two (2) business day response period, if Seller does not respond), Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waive any objections to the New Exception, in which event such New Exception shall be a Permitted Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be required to cure: (x) all monetary liens or encumbrances against the Properties dischargeable by payment of a liquidated sum (1) arising by or through Seller or (2) that are dischargeable by the payment of less than $1,000,000 in the aggregate; and (y) all encumbrances against title which are created by or through Seller after the date hereof except if otherwise approved in writing by Buyer.

(b) Examination. Within two (2) business days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer all of the materials set forth on Schedule 6(b) attached hereto, to the extent in Seller’s actual possession, and should there be any delay in the delivery of such materials by Seller to Buyer, for each day that passes thereafter until all of such materials are delivered to Buyer, the Examination Period shall be extended by one (1) day. Additionally, during the term of this Agreement upon at least 48 hours’ prior written notice to Seller, Buyer, its agents and designees, shall have the right to enter the Properties during normal business hours for the purposes of inspecting the Properties, and making surveys, mechanical and structural engineering studies, inspecting construction, and conducting any other investigations and inspections as Buyer may require to assess the condition and suitability of the Properties; provided, however, that such activities by or on behalf of Buyer on the Properties shall not materially damage the Properties nor unreasonably interfere with the conduct of business by Seller or any of Seller’s tenants; and provided further, however, that Buyer shall (i) indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, fines, penalties, reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and damages to the extent resulting from damage to the Properties or injury to persons as a result of the activities of Buyer and its agents and designees on the Properties (including, but not limited to, reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees), and (ii) repair any and all damage caused, in whole or in part, by Buyer, which obligations shall survive any termination of this Agreement; except, however, that Buyer shall not be responsible for any repairs necessitated by Buyer’s discovery of any pre-existing conditions on the Properties during Buyer’s diligence inspections except to the extent any such conditions are exacerbated by Buyer. Before entering the Properties, Buyer shall give at least 48 hours’ prior written notice to Seller’s designated representative(s) of such entry upon the Properties by Buyer, and Seller may have a representative present during any and all examinations, inspections and/or studies on the Properties.

(d) Exclusions. Buyer shall have until 6:00 p.m. ET on the date that is one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing (“Exclusion Deadline”) to exclude a Property (each, an “Excluded Property”, and collectively, the “Excluded Properties”) from the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, by delivering one or more written notices thereof (each, an “Exclusion Notice”) to Seller on or before the Exclusion Deadline. A Property may only be excluded from the transaction contemplated by this Agreement (i) prior to the expiration of the Examination Period for any reason or no reason, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion and (ii) from and after the expiration of the Examination Period solely in the event that Buyer reasonably determines with respect to any such Excluded Property that any of the following exists or occurs, in each case that is material as to the applicable Excluded Property individually: (i) a violation of applicable laws, rules or regulations; (ii) a title, survey or zoning defect; (iii) Hazardous Substances are present on the Excluded Property or a violation of Environmental Laws; or (iv) a material physical defect in the Improvements.

Any Exclusion Notice shall include a reasonably detailed description of the condition(s) that gave rise to the Exclusion Notice. If Buyer does not deliver an Exclusion Notice prior to the Exclusion Deadline, Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have waived its right to deliver an Exclusion Notice pursuant to this Section 6(d). If Buyer timely delivers an Exclusion Notice, then, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated solely with respect to the applicable Excluded Properties, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the applicable Allocated Purchase Prices attributable to such Excluded Properties, and thereafter the parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Excluded Properties except for those that expressly survive termination. In the event that Buyer terminates this Agreement with respect to an Excluded Property pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6(d) (or Buyer terminates any Other PSA with respect to an Excluded Property (as defined in the applicable Other PSA) pursuant to the provisions of Section 6(d)of such Other PSA), Buyer and Seller shall use good faith efforts to identify another property owned by Seller, or one of its affiliates, acceptable to Buyer (each an “Alternate Property” and collectively the “Alternate Properties”) and Buyer shall have the option to substitute such Alternate Property for such Excluded Property at the Allocated Purchase Price agreed to by Buyer and Seller for such Alternate Property as a Property for all purposes of this Agreement and the Purchase Price shall be adjusted (up or down, as applicable) to reflect the addition of the Allocated Purchase Price of the Alternate Property and, if such Excluded Property was excluded pursuant to this Section 6(d)of this Agreement, the subtraction of the Allocated Purchase Price for the Excluded Property. The Examination Period for any Alternate Property shall be extended to the date that is thirty (30) days after the date on which Buyer elects to substitute such Alternate Property pursuant to this Section 6(d); provided that if such extended Examination Period expires after the then scheduled Closing Date, then the Closing Date for such Alternate Property shall be the date that is five (5) Business Days after the expiration of such extended Examination Period. Without limitation of the immediately preceding sentence, the Closing Date for any Property (including any other Alternate Property that has an extended Examination Period expiring on or before the scheduled Closing Date) shall not be deferred.

In the event all or any portion of a Property is damaged in any casualty or condemned or taken (or notice of any condemnation or taking is issued), Seller shall give Buyer written notice promptly upon becoming aware thereof, and: (a) with respect to any casualty, if the cost to repair such casualty would exceed five percent (5%) of the Allocated Purchase Price with respect to such Property, and (b) with respect to any condemnation or taking (or notice thereof), the proposed condemnation or taking would result in the loss of legal access to a public right-of way or the reduction of value in such Property by more than five percent (5%) of its Allocated Purchase Price, then, in either such case, Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property by providing written notice of such termination to Seller within three (3) business days after Buyer’s receipt of notice of such condemnation, taking or damage, upon which termination the portion of the Xxxxxxx Money allocated to such Property shall be returned to Buyer and neither party hereto shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities under this Agreement with respect to such Property, except as otherwise set forth herein. With respect to any condemnation or taking (or any notice thereof), if Buyer does not elect to cancel this Agreement with respect to the applicable Property, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price and Seller shall assign to Buyer, at the Closing, the rights of Seller to the awards, if any, for the condemnation or taking, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep all such awards to be applied in accordance with the terms of the Leases. With respect to a casualty, if Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable Property or does not have the right to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price and Seller shall assign to Buyer, at the Closing, the rights of Seller to the proceeds under any such Seller insurance policies covering such Property with respect to such damage or destruction (or pay to Buyer any such proceeds received after the Effective Date hereof but prior to Closing), with Seller responsible for payment of any deductible and/or uninsured amount with respect thereto, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep any monies received from such insurance policies which shall be applied in accordance with the terms of the Leases.

Subject to the last sentence of this Section 8(b), if for any reason the Closing does not occur and either party makes a written demand (the “Demand”) upon the Escrow Agent for payment of the Xxxxxxx Money, the Escrow Agent shall give written notice to the other party of the Demand within one (1) business day after receipt of the Demand. If the Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection from the other party to the proposed payment within five (5) business days after the giving of such notice by Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make the payment set forth in the Demand. If the Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within such period, the Escrow Agent shall continue to hold such amount until otherwise directed by written instructions signed by Seller and Buyer or a final judgment of a court directing payment of same. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8(b) , provided that Buyer and Seller have given Escrow Agent notice of the date on which the Examination Period expires, if Buyer delivers a notice to Escrow Agent on or prior to the expiration of the Examination Period that Buyer has terminated this Agreement, then Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Xxxxxxx Money to Buyer without the necessity of delivering any notice to, or receiving any notice from Seller.
(c) Buyer and Seller 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 any of Buyer or Seller, and that the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of Buyer or Seller 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 gross negligence or willful misconduct and for any liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) incurred by Seller or Buyer resulting from the Escrow Agent’s mistake of law respecting the Escrow Agent 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 out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) actually 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 gross negligence on the part of the Escrow Agent.
10
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, but subject to Section 8(b), in the event that a controversy arises between the parties hereto as to whether or to whom Escrow Agent shall deliver any funds or as to any other matter arising out of or relating hereto, Escrow Agent shall not be required to determine the same and need not make any delivery of the funds or any portion thereof to the parties to the dispute but may choose to (a) commence an action in a court of competent jurisdiction and pay over the funds at issue as such court shall direct or (b) retain same until the rights of the parties to the dispute shall have been finally determined by a written agreement signed by all of the undersigned parties or by final order of a court of competent jurisdiction. In this latter instance, Escrow Agent shall deliver the funds within two (2) Business Days after it has received written notice of any such agreement or final order or finding; provided, however, that with respect to a final order or finding the time for appeal from any such final order or finding has expired without an appeal having been taken and the written notice of such final order or finding is accompanied by an affidavit that the time for appeal has expired without an appeal having been taken. Escrow Agent shall be entitled to assume that no such controversy has arisen unless it has received a written notice from any of the undersigned that such controversy has arisen which refers specifically to this Agreement and specially identifies by name and address the adverse claimants to the controversy and the nature of the controversy.
(e) In any interpleader action or in case the Escrow Agent is made a party defendant to any suit or proceedings regarding this Agreement, the undersigned parties, for themselves, their heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigned, jointly and severally, agree to pay to said Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, within fifteen (15) Business Days of written demand, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, attorney’s fees, and expenses actually incurred with respect thereto. Fidelity National Title Insurance Company shall have a lien on the deposit(s) herein for any and all such costs, fees and expenses. If said costs, fees and expenses are not paid, then Fidelity National Title Insurance Company shall have the right to reimburse itself out of the said deposit(s).
(f) The Escrow Agent has executed this Agreement in the place indicated on the signature page hereof in order to confirm that the Escrow Agent has received and shall hold the Xxxxxxx Money in escrow, and shall disburse the Xxxxxxx Money pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.
Section 9. Default; Breach of Representation.
(a) In the event Buyer should fail to consummate the Closing on the Closing Date, for any reason other than Seller’s default, then Seller may, upon five (5) days’ notice to Buyer, if such failure is not cured within such five (5) day period, as its sole and exclusive remedy, terminate this Agreement by notice to Buyer, and in such event Seller shall be entitled to immediately receive all of the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages. Upon such termination, and receipt by Seller of all of the Xxxxxxx Money, neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein. Seller and Buyer agree that it is difficult to determine, with any degree of certainty, the loss which Seller would incur in the event of Buyer’s default in its obligation to consummate the Closing on the Closing Date, and the parties have agreed that the amount of the Xxxxxxx Money represents a reasonable estimate of such loss and is intended as a liquidated damages provision.

(b) In the event Seller should breach, in any material respect, any of its covenants, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement, or if Seller should fail to consummate the Closing on the Closing Date for any reason other than Buyer’s default, Buyer may, upon five (5) days’ notice to Seller, if such breach or failure is not cured within such five (5) day period, as its sole and exclusive remedy, either (i) waive such default or failure and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, (ii) terminate this Agreement in its entirety by notice to Seller, in which event the Escrow Agent shall return the Xxxxxxx Money to Buyer, and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for Buyer’s actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred with respect to its negotiation of this Agreement and due diligence with respect to the Properties, including but not limited to environmental and engineering consultants’ fees, commercially reasonable legal fees, and financing deposits with such reimbursements not to exceed $744,000, and thereafter neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein, (iii) terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller solely with respect to any Properties subject to the applicable breach or default occurred, in which event (x) the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the applicable Allocated Purchase Prices attributable to the Properties subject to the applicable breach or default and (y) Seller shall reimburse Buyer for Buyer’s actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred with respect to its due diligence, including but not limited to environmental and engineering consultants’ fees, commercially reasonable legal fees, and financing deposits with such reimbursement not to exceed $12,000.00 per terminated Property, with respect to the applicable Properties with respect to which this Agreement is terminated, or (iv) enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder.
(c) As a condition precedent to Buyer exercising any right it may have to bring an action for specific performance hereunder, Buyer must commence such an action within sixty (60) days after Buyer becomes aware of the occurrence of Seller’s default.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 9(a) and Section 9(b) hereof, in no event shall the provisions of Section 9(a) and Section 9(b) limit the damages recoverable by either party against the other party due to the other party’s obligation to indemnify such party in accordance with the express provisions of this Agreement. This Section 9(d) shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a default of Seller hereunder which makes specific performance unavailable, Buyer shall, in addition to the foregoing remedies, be permitted to pursue any and all rights and remedies available to Buyer at law or in equity, provided, however, under no circumstances shall Seller be liable to Buyer pursuant to this Section 9(e) for any punitive damages.

Seller and Buyer agree that, following the Closing, each shall be liable for the direct and actual, but not special, indirect, consequential or punitive, damages resulting from any breach of its representations or warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that: (i) following Closing, the total liability of Seller for all such breaches of its representations and warranties under this Agreement shall not, in the aggregate, exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price (the “Claim Cap”); and (ii) following Closing, the total liability of Buyer for all such breaches shall not, in the aggregate, exceed the Claim Cap.

In the event that Seller breaches any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, in any material respect, and Buyer had actual knowledge of such breach on or prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any right of recovery, and Seller shall not have any liability to Buyer in connection therewith.

As used herein, “Sensitive Information” means Transaction Information that is sufficiently detailed or particularized (e.g., regarding rents or transactional details in respect of individual properties) such that Buyer reasonably believes the disclosure thereof would have negative consequences for Buyer vis-à-vis Buyer’s current or future investors or transactional counterparties.

Upon demand by the Division, the Title Insurer shall disburse to the Division such amounts from the Division Escrow as the Division shall require. Any remaining balance of funds in the Division Escrow shall be disbursed to Seller only after the Division has authorized the release of such funds in writing by issuing a Tax Clearance Letter.
