Section 4.01. Purchaser shall have from the Effective Date of this Agreement until 5:00 P.M. (EST) on the sixtieth (60th) day after the Effective Date (the “Inspection Period”) the right but not the obligation to perform, at its sole cost and expense, a Phase I environmental inspection (the “Phase I”) of the Property from a reputable environmental testing company licensed in the State of New York and shall deliver a copy of such Phase I to Seller upon Purchaser’s receipt thereof. In the event that the results of a Phase I completed by Purchaser suggest that a Phase II environmental inspection (the “Phase II”) is necessary, Purchaser may perform the Phase II, at its sole cost and expense, subject to the terms hereof including, without limitation, Section 4.02 below, and Purchaser shall deliver a copy of such Phase II to Seller upon Purchaser’s receipt thereof. In the event that (i) Purchaser’s Phase II reveals that the Property is in violation of any applicable environmental laws (“Environmental Violations”), and (ii) prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser gives notice to Seller that Purchaser has elected to terminate this Agreement due to such Environmental Violations, Seller, at Seller’s sole option, shall have the right to hire a reputable environmental consultant licensed in the State of New York to review the Environmental Violations and prepare an estimate of the costs to cure same. Upon receipt of such consultant’s estimate, Seller, in Seller’s sole discretion may (x) consent to Purchaser’s termination of this Agreement, (y) nullify Purchaser’s termination of this Agreement and give Purchaser a credit at closing in the amount set forth on the environmental consultant’s report, or (z) nullify Purchaser’s termination of this Agreement by agreeing in writing to undertake the remediation of the Environmental Violations. By way of clarification, and not limitation, Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement in any of the following events: (A) Purchaser does not timely perform a Phase I; (B) any such Phase I does not suggest that a Phase II should be performed; (C) no Environmental Violations are revealed by a Phase I or, if applicable, a Phase II; and (D) Seller nullifies a Purchaser termination in accordance with the terms hereof. Any termination by Purchaser hereunder must occur prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period. In the event the Purchaser properly cancels this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4 and Seller does not negate such termination as provided herein, the Downpayment shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further liability to the other.
Section 4.02. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser must obtain Seller’s prior written approval of the scope and method of the Phase II prior to Purchaser’s commencement of the Phase II. If Seller, in its sole and absolute discretion, does not approve the scope and method of the Phase II, then Purchaser, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller given within five (5) business days after Seller gives notice of such disapproval of the Phase II to Purchaser, but in any event, prior to the end of the Inspection Period. If Seller approves the scope and method of such Phase II, Seller and its representatives, agents, and/or contractors shall have the right to be present during any such testing, investigation, or inspection.
Section 4.03. Purchaser shall (i) conduct all tests and inspections in a good and workmanlike manner, and in compliance in all material respects with all applicable laws,
| 6 |
ordinances, rules and regulations of any governmental authority; (ii) not make any alterations to the Property whatsoever, (iii) repair any damage to the Property resulting from such tests and inspections, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, (iv) cause all debris resulting from its activities to be removed, (v) exercise its rights hereunder so as to minimize interference with the normal operation of the Property, and (vi) pay all sums due to the environmental testing companies engaged by Purchaser.
Section 4.04. Prior to Purchaser, or its employees and agents, entering onto the Property, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller property damage and commercial general liability insurance, in form and amounts reasonably acceptable to Seller and naming Seller and its managing agent as additional insureds, and furnish to Seller policies or a certificate or certificates of insurance evidencing such coverage.
Section 4.05. Purchaser shall restore the Property to its condition existing immediately prior to Purchaser’s inspection thereof to the extent of any damage caused by Purchaser or its employees or agents, and Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its direct and indirect shareholders, officers, directors, partners, principals, members, employees, agents and contractors, and any successors or assigns of the foregoing, from and against any and all losses, costs, liabilities, damages and expenses, including, but not limited to, penalties, fines, court costs, disbursements and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with or arising from injuries to persons or damage to property caused by Purchaser’s and/or its Representatives’ access to, or inspection of the Property, or any tests, inspections or other due diligence conducted by or on behalf of Purchaser. The indemnity provisions of this Section 4.05 shall be binding upon Purchaser regardless of whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the Closing, as applicable.
SECTION 5: TITLE; MATTERS TO WHICH THE SALE IS SUBJECT
Section 5.01. Seller shall assign and convey or cause to be assigned and conveyed to Purchaser good and valid insurable fee title to the Property free and clear of any and all mortgages, liens, leases, encumbrances and easements, except the following (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”):
(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 7, all Real Estate Taxes, water meter and water charges and sewer rents, accrued or unaccrued, fixed or not fixed, becoming due and payable after the Closing Date;
(b) All zoning laws and building ordinances, resolutions, regulations and orders of all boards, bureaus, commissions and bodies of any municipal, county, state or federal government, and all notes or notices of violations thereof noted or issued with respect to the Property prior to the Closing Date;
(c) All covenants, restrictions and rights and all easements and agreements for the erection and/or maintenance of water, gas, steam, electric, telephone, sewer or other utility pipelines, poles, wires, conduits or other like facilities, and appurtenances thereto, over, across and under the Property;
| 7 |
(d) The standard conditions and exceptions to title contained in Purchaser’s title policy or any “marked-up” commitment issued by the Title Insurer to Purchaser;
(e) State of facts shown on the survey of the Property made by Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, P.C., dated December 1, 2007, and updated May 23, 2010, and any additional state of facts which would be shown on an update to such survey;
(f) Variations between tax lot lines and lines of record title;
(g) All violations of building, fire, sanitary, environmental, housing and similar laws and regulations whether or not noted or issued at the date hereof or the Closing Date;
(h) All Leases now affecting the Real Property and any new Leases or tenancies not prohibited by the terms hereof; and
(i) All of the restrictions, encumbrances, covenants, agreements, easements and other matters set forth on Schedule 4 annexed hereto.
Notwithstanding that the deed for the Property does not so state, the Property shall be deemed conveyed to Purchaser subject to the exceptions set forth in items (a) through (j). This provision shall survive the Closing.
Section 5.02. Upon execution of this Agreement, Purchaser shall order an updated survey (“Survey”). Seller hereby acknowledges receipt of title commitment number FN-14176-NY (the “Title Commitment”) with respect to the purchase of the Property from the Title Insurer. No later than twenty (20) days from the Effective Date of this Agreement, Purchaser shall notify Seller of such objections, except for any Permitted Encumbrances set forth in Section 5.01 above, as Purchaser may have to anything contained in the Title Commitment or on the Survey (collectively, the “Title Objections”). If there are Title Objections by Purchaser, Seller shall have the option, at its sole discretion, to satisfy them prior to the Scheduled Closing Date. If Seller elects to attempt to satisfy the Title Objections, Seller shall so notify Purchaser within ten (10) days after receipt of such Title Objections and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to cure such Title Objections prior to Closing, and the Scheduled Closing Date may be extended, at Seller’s option for reasonable periods of time not to exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate, in order to attempt to cure such Title Objections. If Seller elects not to satisfy such Title Objections, then Seller shall so notify Purchaser and Purchaser shall thereupon have a period of ten (10) days after receipt of Seller’s notice that Seller elects not to cure such Title Objections to either (i) waive the Title Objections and accept such title as Seller is able to convey, without abatement or reduction of the Purchase Price or any credit or allowance on account thereof (except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein), and by such waiver of the Title Objections, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any and all claims and/or causes of action against Seller for damages or any other remedies for any and all defects in and/or exceptions to title to the Property, or (ii) terminate this Agreement by giving notice to Seller on or before the end of such ten (10) day period, in which event the Downpayment shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties hereto shall be released from further liability hereunder except as expressly otherwise provided herein. In no event shall Seller have
| 8 |
any obligation to commence litigation or to expend money to cure or remove any Title Objections; provided, Seller shall be required to remove, by payment, bonding or otherwise: (i) any instruments which have been voluntarily recorded or otherwise placed by Seller against the Property on or following the date hereof (other than with the approval of Purchaser) and which are not given for the benefit of any utility or governmental authority in the ordinary course, (ii) any mechanics’ liens relating to work done by or at the request of Seller at the Property (but expressly excluding mechanics liens created or permitted by a Tenant under a Lease) (the liens described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, collectively, “Voluntary Liens”), (iii) any Title Objections which would not fall within the definition of (i) above and which can be removed by the payment of a liquidated sum of money (“Monetary Liens”); provided, however, that Seller shall not have the obligation to remove any of such Monetary Liens unless such Monetary Lien is an ascertainable, fixed amount, and, in no event shall Seller be obligated to expend amounts in excess of $30,000 (the “Monetary Lien Cap Amount”) pursuant to the provisions of this sentence, and (iv) all mortgages, assignments of leases and rents and UCC-1 financing statements under which Seller is a borrower or otherwise constituting a lien on the Property (“Mortgages”). Purchaser’s failure to exercise the right to terminate within the ten (10) day period shall constitute a waiver of Purchaser’s right to terminate with respect to such title matters. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that the Title Insurer selected by Purchaser cannot insure good and valid fee title to the Property in accordance with an ALTA form of Owner’s policy at standard premiums, Seller shall have the option, but not the obligation, upon notice to Purchaser, to select a Title Insurer that will insure fee title to the Property at standard premiums in accordance with an ALTA form of Owner’s policy, subject to the Permitted Encumbrances.(except with respect to Voluntary Liens, Monetary Liens and Mortgages, which shall in no event constitute Permitted Encumbrances).
Section 5.03. Purchaser, if request is made not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing, agrees to provide at the Closing separate wire transfers or certified or cashier’s checks as requested, aggregating not more than the balance (as adjusted, pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 hereof) of the Purchase Price, to facilitate the satisfaction of any such mortgages, liens and encumbrances. If after delivery of the Title Commitment to Seller, but prior to the Closing Date, a new Title Objection is disclosed by an updated endorsement to the Title Commitment, the same rights and obligations of both parties as set forth above shall be applicable.
SECTION 6: “AS IS SALE”
Section 6.01. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH HEREIN, IT IS PURCHASING THE PROPERTY “AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS” AND SUBJECT TO ALL DEFECTS (PATENT AND LATENT), BASED UPON THE CONDITION (PHYSICAL OR OTHERWISE) OF THE PROPERTY AS OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT, REASONABLE WEAR AND TEAR AND, SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTIONS 8 AND 9 OF THIS AGREEMENT, LOSS BY CONDEMNATION OR FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY EXCEPTED, AND THAT NEITHER SELLER, NOR ANY PERSON ACTING ON BEHALF OF SELLER, NOR ANY PERSON WHICH PREPARED OR PROVIDED ANY OF THE MATERIALS REVIEWED BY PURCHASER IN CONDUCTING ITS DUE DILIGENCE, NOR ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT OFFICER, DIRECTOR, PARTNER, MEMBER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE, AGENT, REPRESENTATIVE, ACCOUNTANT, ADVISOR, ATTORNEY, PRINCIPAL, AFFILIATE, CONSULTANT, CONTRACTOR, SUCCESSOR OR ASSIGN OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING

No representation, warranty or covenant made by Seller in this Agreement or any document delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. Purchaser has not relied upon, and Seller is not liable or bound in any manner by, any verbal or written statements, representations, real estate brokers’ “set-ups” or information pertaining to the Property furnished by any real estate broker, agent, employee, servant to other persons unless the same are expressly set forth in this Agreement. The delivery of the deed by Seller, and the acceptance of the deed by Purchaser, shall be deemed to be the full performance and discharge of every obligation of Seller to be performed pursuant to this Agreement on or prior to the Closing Date and the truth of every representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement or in any Exhibit attached hereto or in any document, certificate, affidavit or other instrument delivered by Seller or its agents at or in connection with the Closing, except for those warranties, representations and obligations of Seller which this Agreement expressly provides are to survive the Closing. Purchaser acknowledges it is acquiring the Property and is relying solely upon its own knowledge of the Property based on its investigation of the Property and its own inspection of the Property. Without limitation, Purchaser releases Seller from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, liabilities, damages and expenses, including, but not limited to, penalties, fines, court costs, disbursements and reasonable attorney’s fees arising from or related to any physical or environmental conditions at or in respect to the Property. The provisions of this Section 6, including, without limitation, such release, shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the Closing, as applicable.

All Rents received by Seller or Purchaser after the Closing Date, less reasonable collection costs, shall be adjusted and prorated as provided above, and the party receiving such Rents shall, within five (5) Business Days, pay to the other party the portion thereof that such other party is entitled to receive. Purchaser shall xxxx Tenants who owe Rents for periods prior to the Closing in the ordinary course of Purchaser’s business following the Closing Date for a period of one year and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such past due Rents during such one year period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser shall be unable to collect such past due Rents, Seller shall have the right to pursue Tenants to collect such delinquencies (including, without limitation, the prosecution of one or more lawsuits), but Seller shall not be entitled to evict (by summary proceedings or otherwise) any such Tenants. No prorations shall be made at the Closing in respect of any unpaid Rents.
Section 7.03. Without limiting the provisions of Section 7.02 hereof, to the extent any portion of the Additional Rents, if any, is required to be paid monthly by Tenants on account of estimated amounts for the current period and, at the end of each calendar year (or, if applicable, at the end of each lease year or tax year or any other applicable accounting period), such estimated amounts are to be recalculated based upon the actual expenses, taxes and other relevant factors for that calendar, lease or tax year, with the appropriate adjustments being made with such Tenants, then such portion of the Additional Rents shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser on the
| 11 |
Closing Date based on such estimated payments (i.e., with (i) Seller entitled to retain all monthly installments of such amounts with respect to periods prior to the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs, to the extent such amounts are as of the Closing Date estimated to equal the amounts ultimately due to Seller for such periods, (ii) Purchaser entitled to receive all monthly installments of such amounts with respect to periods following the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs, and (iii) Seller and Purchaser apportioning all monthly installments of such amounts with respect to the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs). At the time(s) of final calculation and collection from (or refund to) Tenants of the amounts in reconciliation of actual Additional Rents for a period for which estimated amounts have been prorated, there shall be a re-proration between Seller and Purchaser, with the net credit resulting from such re-proration, after accounting for amounts required to be refunded to Tenants, being payable to the appropriate party (i.e., to Seller if the recalculated amounts exceed the estimated amounts and to Purchaser if the recalculated amounts are less than the estimated amounts).
Section 7.04. Charges for all electricity, steam, gas and other utility services (collectively, “Utilities”) shall be billed to Seller’s account up to the Closing Date and, from and after the Closing Date, all Utilities shall be billed to Purchaser’s account. If for any reason such changeover in billing is not practicable as of the Closing Date, as to any Utility, such Utility shall be apportioned on the basis of actual current readings or, if such readings have not been made, on the basis of the most recent bills that are available. If any apportionment is not based on an actual current reading, then upon the taking of a subsequent actual reading, the parties shall, within ten (10) days following notice of the determination of such actual reading, readjust such apportionment and Seller shall promptly deliver to Purchaser, or Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller, as the case may be, the amount determined to be due upon such adjustment.
Section 7.05. Purchaser shall have no right to receive any rental insurance proceeds which relate to the period prior to the Closing Date and, if any such proceeds are delivered to Purchaser, Purchaser shall, within five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof, pay the same to Seller.
Section 7.06. If, after the Closing, an error or omission in the calculation of the apportionments set forth above is found by one of the parties, such error or omission shall be promptly corrected and the party receiving the over-payment shall pay the amount of the over-payment to the party entitled thereto. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.07, the foregoing obligation to correct apportionments shall survive the Closing and continue for a period of (a) twelve (12) months after the Closing Date.
Section 7.07. The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the Closing.
SECTION 8: CASUALTY
Section 8.01. If, on or prior to the date of the Closing, all or a “material part” (as defined below) of the Improvements shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, then, in any such event, Purchaser may, at its option, either (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon, in accordance with Section 23, the Downpayment shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties hereto shall be released of all obligations and liabilities of whatsoever nature in connection with this Agreement except those that expressly survive termination of this Agreement, or (ii) proceed to
| 12 |
close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in which event all of the provisions of subsection 8.01(a)(i) and subsection 8.01(a)(ii) below shall apply.
(a) If, on or prior to the date of the Closing, less than a “material part” of the Improvements shall be destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, then Purchaser shall nevertheless close title to the Property pursuant to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement (without any adjustment to the Purchase Price except as otherwise set forth herein), subject to the following: (i) Seller shall not (x) adjust and settle any insurance claims, or (y) enter into any construction or other contract for the repair or restoration of the Improvements, without Purchaser’s prior written consent (except no such consent shall be necessary in the event of an emergency or hazardous condition at the Property), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) at the Closing, Seller shall (1) pay over to Purchaser the amount of any insurance proceeds, to the extent collected by Seller in connection with such casualty, less the amount of the actual and reasonable unreimbursed expenses incurred by Seller to third parties in connection with collecting such proceeds and making any repairs to the Improvements occasioned by such casualty pursuant to any contract (provided that such contract was approved by Purchaser as required by this Section), and (2) assign to Purchaser in form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any insurance proceeds that are uncollected at the time of the Closing and that may be paid in respect of such casualty. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in the collection of such proceeds, which obligation shall survive the Closing.
(b) For the purpose of this Section, the phrase a “material part” of an Improvement shall mean a portion of an Improvement such that the cost of repair or restoration thereof is estimated by a reputable contractor selected by Seller and reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, to be in excess of fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price.
Section 8.02. The provisions of this Section 8 supersede any law applicable to the Property governing the effect of fire or other casualty in contracts for real property.
SECTION 9: CONDEMNATION PENDING CLOSING
Section 9.01. If, prior to the Closing Date, condemnation or eminent domain proceedings shall be commenced by any public authority against the Real Property or any part thereof, Seller shall promptly give Purchaser written notice thereof. After notice of the commencement of any such proceedings (from Seller or otherwise) and in the event that the taking of such property is a material taking (as hereinafter defined), Purchaser shall have the right (i) to accept title to the Property subject to the proceedings, whereupon any award payable to Seller shall be paid to Purchaser and Seller shall deliver to Purchaser at the Closing all assignments and other documents reasonably requested by Purchaser to vest such award in Purchaser, or (ii) to terminate this Agreement and upon the return of the Downpayment, this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party will have any further obligations hereunder except those that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. A taking shall be deemed to be a “material taking” if the claim for a condemnation award for such taking is estimated by an independent appraiser selected by
| 13 |
Seller and reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser to be equal to or in excess of fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price.
Section 9.02. In the event of a non-material taking of any part of the Real Property, Purchaser shall accept the Property subject to the proceedings and pay to Seller the full Purchase Price, whereupon any award payable to Seller shall be paid to Purchaser and Seller shall deliver to Purchaser at the Closing all assignments and other documents reasonably requested by Purchaser to vest such award in Purchaser.
Section 9.03. The provisions of this Section 9 supersede any law applicable to the Property governing the effect of condemnation in contracts for real property.

SECTION 18: DEFAULT
Section 18.01. Purchaser’s Default. If Purchaser shall default (a) in the payment of the Purchase Price or the performance of any of its other obligations to be performed on the Closing Date or (b) in the performance of any of its material obligations to be performed prior to the Closing Date and, with respect to any default under this clause (b) only, such default shall not be cured on or prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days after written notice to Purchaser, Purchaser’s attorney and Escrow Agent, then Seller shall have the right to treat this Agreement as
| 24 |
having been breached by Purchaser and Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy on account of such breach shall be the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Purchaser or Purchaser’s attorney. Upon such termination (i) Purchaser shall forfeit all rights and claims with respect to the Property pursuant to this Agreement and to the Downpayment and (ii) Escrow Agent shall promptly remit the Downpayment to Seller; and thereupon neither party shall have any obligations or liabilities hereunder except those that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. In the event the payment of the Downpayment to Seller is delayed in connection with any litigation, then, in addition to receipt of the Downpayment, Seller shall be entitled to judgment interest from Purchaser from date on which the Downpayment would have otherwise been payable to Seller, but for such litigation (and such entitlement of Seller and obligation of Purchaser shall survive the termination of this Agreement). Seller and Purchaser hereby agree that payment of the Downpayment to Seller shall be deemed to be fair and adequate, but not excessive, liquidated damages (and not a penalty) based upon the following considerations which Seller and Purchaser agree would constitute damages to Seller for any default by Purchaser but which are impossible to quantify, to wit: (A) the removal of the Property from the real estate market together with the uncertainty of obtaining a new purchaser at the same or greater purchase price; (B) the expenses incurred by Seller, including (but not by way of limitation) attorneys’ fees, taxes, mortgage interest, and other items incidental to the maintenance of the Property until it is eventually sold; and (C) all other expenses incurred by Seller as a result of Purchaser’s default. The Downpayment is not intended to cap amounts, if any, due Seller in respect of any indemnification from Purchaser that survives termination of or Closing under this Agreement. In the event of such termination, Purchaser shall promptly destroy all due diligence materials, reports and studies delivered to Purchaser by Seller or any broker, agent, representative or employee of Seller (without Purchaser retaining copies thereof).
Section 18.02. Seller’s Default. In the event Purchaser discovers, prior to the Closing Date, that (a) any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 10.01 hereof are false as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, or (b) Seller shall default in the performance of (i) any of its material obligations to be performed on the Closing Date or (ii) any of its material obligations to be performed prior to the Closing Date and, with respect to any default under this clause (ii) only, such default shall not be cured on or prior to the earlier to occur of the date that is five (5) Business Days after written notice to Seller, Seller’s attorney and Escrow Agent or the Closing Date, then Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy by reason thereof (in lieu of prosecuting an action for damages or proceeding with any other legal or equitable course of conduct, the right to bring such actions or proceedings being expressly and voluntarily waived by Purchaser, to the extent legally permissible, following and upon advice of its counsel) shall be to terminate this Agreement and receive the Downpayment. If, however, Seller is able to convey title to the Property to Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof but Seller intentionally and willfully fails to do so, then Purchaser may either (1) terminate this Agreement and receive the Downpayment or (2) seek to obtain specific performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder, provided that any action for specific performance shall be commenced within thirty (30) days after such default; it being understood and agreed that if Purchaser fails to commence an action for specific performance within thirty (30) days after such default, then this Agreement shall automatically terminate, effective as of the day immediately following such thirty (30) day period, and thereupon the Downpayment shall be returned to Purchaser, and the parties hereto shall be released of all obligations and liabilities of whatsoever nature in connection with this Agreement except those that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser elects to seek specific
| 25 |
performance of this Agreement, then as a condition precedent to any suit for specific performance, Purchaser shall on or before the Closing Date, time being of the essence, fully perform all of its obligations hereunder which are capable of being performed (other than the payment of the Purchase Price, which shall be paid as and when required by the court in the suit for specific performance). Upon the termination of this Agreement and the return of the Downpayment to Purchaser in accordance with this Section 18.02, neither party shall have any obligations or liabilities hereunder except those that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have no right to seek specific performance, if Seller shall be prohibited from performing its obligations hereunder by reason of any law, regulation, or other legal requirement applicable to Seller. Under no circumstance shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for any consequential, punitive or other damages.
SECTION 19: ASSIGNMENT
Section 19.01. This Agreement and Purchaser’s rights hereunder may not be assigned by Purchaser without the prior written consent of Seller (which may be withheld by Seller in its sole and absolute discretion, which may be arbitrary). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have the right, upon notice to (but without the requirement for the consent of) Seller, to assign its rights and entitlements under this Agreement to an entity owned and controlled by Purchaser, provided that no such assignment shall be construed as to release or relieve Purchaser of or from the obligations and liabilities of Purchaser under this Agreement.
Section 19.02. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller shall have the right, prior to Closing, to assign the rights under this Agreement and to transfer the Property to any escrow holder or exchange facilitator (a “Qualified Intermediary”) selected by Seller in order to effect a Section 1031 exchange. Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Seller and the Qualified Intermediary in any manner necessary to complete the Section 1031 exchange; provided, however that Purchaser shall not be required to incur any additional cost or expense, and the completion of the Section 1031 exchange will not delay or postpone the Closing. Seller’s effectuation of the Section 1031 exchange prior to Closing shall not be a condition or contingency to Seller’s obligation hereunder.
SECTION 20: COUNTERPARTS
Section 20.01. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts. The signatures of the parties who sign different counterparts of this Agreement or any of the instruments executed to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement shall have the same effect as if those parties had signed the same counterparts of this Agreement or of any such instrument.
SECTION 21: FURTHER ASSURANCES
Section 21.01. Purchaser and Seller each agree to execute and deliver to the other such further documents or instruments as may be reasonable and necessary in furtherance of the performance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement. This Section 21.01 shall survive the Closing.
| 26 |
SECTION 22: MISCELLANEOUS
Section 22.01. Seller agrees that, at Purchaser’s election made by written notice to Seller at least forty five (45) days prior to Closing, Seller, as an accommodation to Purchaser, shall request that the mortgagee under the existing mortgage encumbering the Premises (collectively, the “Existing Mortgage”) provide a pay-off statement for the indebtedness secured by the Existing Mortgage as of the Closing Date and assign such mortgage to Purchaser’s new lender in exchange for (i) payment of such indebtedness, (ii) the unconditional release of the Seller and all guarantors of the Existing Mortgage from all liability under the Existing Mortgage by the current holder of the Existing Mortgage, the assignee, and their successors and assigns from all liability under, in connection with or related to the Existing Mortgage, and (iii) the agreement of the Purchaser and Enzo Biochem, Inc. to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and the guarantors under the Existing Mortgage from liability under, in connection with or related to the Existing Mortgage. Purchaser shall pay all fees, costs and expenses in connection with the assignment of the Existing Mortgage and assumption thereof by the Purchaser including all fees, costs and expenses, if any, of the mortgagee under the Existing Mortgage and the Seller’s reasonable attorneys’ fees. In connection therewith, Seller shall have no obligation to expend any money, take any action, incur any liability, provide any financial accommodations or commence any litigation in connection with the procurement or delivery of an assignment of the Existing Mortgages. In addition, (i) the delivery of an assignment of such Existing Mortgages or Purchaser obtaining any financing shall not be a condition to the obligation of Purchaser to close hereunder, (ii) in no event shall Purchaser have any right to terminate this Agreement due to the failure to obtain or assign any such Existing Mortgages or obtain any financing, (iii) Purchaser shall not be entitled to a reduction of the Purchase Price due to the failure to obtain any such assignment of such Existing Mortgages or financing, (iv) in no event shall the Closing Date be extended due to the failure to obtain any such assignment of such Existing Mortgages or financing, (v) the assumption of the Existing Mortgage and the releases and indemnity to be provided to the Seller and the guarantors of the Existing Mortgage shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Seller, and (vi) Seller does not make any representation or warranty that an assignment of the Existing Mortgage will be obtained.
Section 22.02. Subject to Section 19 hereof, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns.
Section 22.03. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State in which the Real Property is located. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or other rule requiring construction against the party causing this Agreement to be drafted. If any words or phrases in this Agreement shall have been stricken out or otherwise eliminated, whether or not any other words or phrases have been added, this Agreement shall be construed as if the words or phrases so stricken out or otherwise eliminated were never included in this Agreement and no implication or inference shall be drawn from the fact that said words or phrases were so stricken out or otherwise eliminated. All terms and words used in this Agreement, regardless of the number or gender in which they are used, shall be deemed to include any other number and any other gender as the context may require.
| 27 |
Section 22.04. The headings of the several Sections contained in this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for reference and in no way define, limit or describe the scope of this Agreement or the intent of any provision thereof.
Section 22.05. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect or impair any other provision of this Agreement.
Section 22.06. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between Seller and Purchaser, and any and all prior understandings and dealings heretofore had are merged herein and any agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to change, modify or discharge this Agreement in whole or in part unless such agreement hereafter made is in writing and signed by Seller and Purchaser.
Section 22.07. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that its obligations under this Agreement are not subject to its ability to obtain financing for or in connection with such acquisition or other contingencies or satisfaction of conditions and Purchaser shall have no right to terminate this Agreement or receive a return of the Downpayment except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement. Nothing herein shall prohibit Purchaser from seeking or obtaining financing.
Section 22.08. Purchaser shall have no right to record this Agreement or a memorandum hereof. If Purchaser shall so record this Agreement or a memorandum, Purchaser shall be in default of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to Seller as a result of Purchaser’s default, Seller may, at Seller’s option, immediately terminate this Agreement.
Section 22.09. Intentionally Omitted.
Section 22.10. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, in any instance where Purchaser is entitled to the return of the Downpayment, Seller shall be entitled to instruct Escrow Agent (and Purchaser hereby authorizes Escrow Agent) to deduct therefrom, and deliver to Seller, amounts, if any, owed to Seller in respect of any indemnification by Purchaser, as reasonably determined by Seller, prior to Escrow Agent’s returning the Downpayment to Purchaser.
Section 22.11. Purchaser shall look solely to Seller’s interest in the Property (including the net proceeds from the sale of the Property after payment of all third party closing expenses and payment of the release price to the Lender) as if said asset were the sole asset of Seller for the payment or satisfaction of claims of any nature or for any performance arising under or in connection with this Agreement; provided, however, the foregoing is not intended to expand Seller’s liability hereunder and, accordingly, such liability is further limited by the other provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 10.03 and 10.04, Section 15.01(a)(i) and Section 18.02 (which sections limit Seller’s liability to Purchaser or Purchaser’s remedies against Seller).
Section 22.12. Purchaser agrees that the submission of a draft of this Agreement by Seller is not intended to be an offer to enter into a legally binding contract with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Seller shall be legally bound
| 28 |
with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property pursuant to the terms of this Agreement only if and when the parties have been able to negotiate all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in a manner acceptable to each of the parties in their respective sole discretion, including, without limitation, all of the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, and each of Seller and Purchaser have fully executed and delivered to each other a counterpart of this Contract, including, without limitation, all Exhibits and Schedules hereto.
SECTION 23: ESCROW AGENT
Section 23.01. Seller and Purchaser hereby designate “Escrow Agent” to receive and hold the Downpayment delivered herewith by Purchaser in accordance with Section 3 hereof, and Escrow Agent agrees to act as such Escrow Agent subject to the provisions of this Section 23. Upon receipt by Escrow Agent of the Downpayment, Escrow Agent shall cause the same to be deposited into Escrow Agent’s XXXX (i.e., non-interest-bearing) account, it being agreed that Escrow Agent shall not be liable for (a) any loss of such investment (unless due to Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) any failure to attain a rate of return on such investment.
Section 23.02. On receipt by Escrow Agent of a statement executed by Seller and Purchaser that title to the Property has closed under this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver such Downpayment to Seller.
Section 23.03. On receipt by Escrow Agent of a statement executed by Purchaser prior to the Closing Date that title to the Property has not closed under this Agreement because of a default by Seller under this Agreement or because of Seller’s inability to convey title to the Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or because any contingency contained in this Agreement has not been satisfied or waived, Escrow Agent shall, within ten (10) Business Days, deliver a copy of said statement to Seller and return such Downpayment to Purchaser on the tenth (10th) Business Day after receipt by Seller of said statement unless Escrow Agent, prior to such return, receives from Seller a statement contesting the accuracy of Purchaser’s statement and demanding retention of said Downpayment by Escrow Agent.
Section 23.04. On receipt by Escrow Agent of a statement executed by Seller prior to the Closing Date that title to the Property has not closed under this Agreement because of a default by Purchaser under this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall within ten (10) Business Days deliver a copy of said statement to Purchaser and deliver such Downpayment to Seller on the tenth (10th) Business Day after receipt by Purchaser of such statement unless Escrow Agent, prior to such delivery, receives from Purchaser a statement contesting the accuracy of Seller’s statement and demanding retention of said Downpayment by Escrow Agent.
Section 23.05. On receipt by Escrow Agent of a statement from Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, under Sections 23.03 or 23.04 above, Escrow Agent shall retain the Downpayment and thereafter deliver the same to either Seller or Purchaser as Seller and Purchaser may jointly direct by a statement executed by them both, provided if there is any dispute with respect to the Downpayment, Escrow Agent may immediately and with notice to Seller and Purchaser, surrender said Downpayment to a court of competent jurisdiction for such disposition as may be directed by such court.
| 29 |
Section 23.06. Upon delivery of the Downpayment to either Purchaser, Seller or a court of competent jurisdiction under and pursuant to the provisions of this Section 23, Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all liability, responsibility or obligation with respect to or arising out of the Downpayment and any and all of its obligations arising therefrom.
Section 23.07. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment or for any act done or omitted by it in good faith or for anything which it may in good faith do or refrain from doing in connection herewith or for any negligence other than its gross negligence, nor shall the Escrow Agent be answerable for the default or misconduct other than the willful misconduct of its agents, attorneys or employees if they be selected with reasonable care. The Escrow Agent is authorized to act upon any document believed by it to be genuine and to be signed by the proper party or parties and will incur no liability in so acting. Seller and Purchaser jointly and severally agree to and do hereby indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent from all loss, cost, claim, damage, liability, and expense (including attorney’s fees and disbursements) which may be incurred by reason of its acting as Escrow Agent, provided the same is not the result of Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Escrow Agent shall be entitled to represent Seller in any dispute with respect to the Downpayment, or otherwise.
Section 23.08. The Escrow Agent has executed this Agreement for the sole purpose of agreeing to act as such in accordance with the terms of this Section 23.
Section 23.09. The provisions of this Section 23 shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.
SECTION 24: CONFIDENTIALITY
Section 24.01. Purchaser shall maintain, in the strictest confidence, the contents of any and all information in respect of the Property which is supplied to, or obtained by, Purchaser or its principals, employees, contractors, consultants, advisors, attorneys, accountants, members, investors and lenders involved in the acquisition of the Property (collectively, the “Representatives”) by Seller or its Representatives, including, without limitation, any third party reports in respect of the Property (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may, without Seller’s consent, disclose such Confidential Information (a) to its Representatives without the express written consent of Seller, so long as any Representatives to whom disclosure is made agree to keep all such information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof and (b) if disclosure is required by law or by regulatory or judicial process, provided that in such event the Purchaser shall, to the extent practicable, furnish Seller with prior written notice of any such required disclosure, shall exercise all commercially reasonable efforts (at no cost or expense to Purchaser) to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with Seller to obtain an appropriate order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information by such tribunal and shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that it is legally required to disclose. Upon any termination of this Agreement, such confidentiality shall be maintained and Purchaser will destroy such Confidential Information as was previously provided to Purchaser by Seller, with any such destruction confirmed by Purchaser in writing. For purposes of this Agreement, Confidential
| 30 |
Information excludes information which: (i) is or becomes generally available to or known by the public other than as a result of a disclosure by Purchaser or its Representatives; (ii) is or becomes available to Purchaser or its Representatives on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Seller or its representatives, provided that such source is not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation to Seller, or (iii) is independently developed by Purchaser or its Representatives. Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify Seller from and against any actual loss or actual out of pocket cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising by reason of a breach by Purchaser or its Representatives of the provisions of this Section 24. The provisions of this Section 24 shall survive any termination of this Agreement, but shall not survive Closing.
Section 24.02. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 24, Purchaser shall not issue any press releases (or other public statements) with respect to the transaction contemplated in this Agreement without the prior written approval of Seller, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however that Seller’s consent shall not be required in connection with SEC filings by Purchaser required by applicable law or press releases or public statements made by the Town of Babylon with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.
SECTION 25: TAX PROCEEDINGS
Section 25.01. Real estate tax refunds or credits received by Seller that are attributable to the fiscal tax year in which the Closing occurs shall be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser less any reasonable expenses incurred by Seller in connection with the prosecution of such proceeding. In the event any such proceeding shall affect a fiscal tax year falling entirely during Purchaser’s period of ownership, Seller shall, at Purchaser’s election, at the Closing, assign all of its right, title and interest in such proceeding to Purchaser pursuant to an assignment in form reasonably acceptable to Purchaser. If Purchaser does not elect to accept such assignment, Seller may withdraw such proceeding. Real estate tax refunds or credits received by Purchaser post-Closing directly from the applicable municipality that are attributable to the fiscal tax year in which the Closing occurs shall be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser. Real estate tax refunds or credits received by Purchaser post-Closing directly from the applicable municipality that are attributable to a fiscal year prior to the fiscal year of the Closing shall be paid to Seller. Seller shall not settle the year of Closing, without Purchaser’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Seller shall not settle multiple years, which include the year of Closing, if the result of such settlement is that the year of Closing is not settled on terms at least as favorable as the prior years. The provisions of this Section 25 shall survive Closing.
SECTION 26: SALE BROKERAGE AGREEMENTS
Section 26.01. Each of Seller and Purchaser hereby represent and warrant to the other that it has not (a) dealt with any agent, finder or broker in connection with this Agreement other than Equity Transfers, LLC (“Broker”) or (b) made any agreement to pay any agent, finder, broker or any other Person any fee or commission in the nature of a broker’s fee arising out of or in connection with this Agreement other than Seller’s agreement to pay the Broker a commission
| 31 |
pursuant to separate agreement. Purchaser hereby agrees that, in the event any claim is made for any fees or commissions by any broker, agent, finder or any other Person other than the Broker in connection with this Agreement and arising by, through or on account of any act of Purchaser or any of its Representatives, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) in connection therewith. Seller hereby agrees that, in the event that any claim is made for any fees or commissions by any broker, agent, finder or any other Person in connection with this Agreement and arising by, through or on account of any act of Seller or Seller’s representatives, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) in connection therewith. The foregoing indemnities shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement, as applicable.
SECTION 27: THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY
Section 27.01. This Agreement is an agreement solely for the benefit of Seller and Purchaser (and their permitted successors and/or assigns). No other Person shall have any rights hereunder nor shall any other Person be entitled to rely upon the terms, covenants and provisions contained herein. The provisions of this Section 27 shall survive the Closing or the termination hereof.
SECTION 28: JURISDICTION AND SERVICE OF PROCESS
Section 28.01. The parties hereto agree to submit to personal jurisdiction in the State of New York in any action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement and, in furtherance of such agreement, the parties hereby agree and consent that without limiting other methods of obtaining jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction over the parties in any such action or proceeding may be obtained within or without the jurisdiction of any court located in New York and that any process or notice of motion or other application to any such court in connection with any such action or proceeding may be served upon the parties in any manner permitted by applicable law. The provisions of this Section 28 shall survive the Closing or the termination hereof. Any litigation arising from this Agreement shall be commenced and prosecuted in a court of competent jurisdiction in Nassau County, New York.
SECTION 29: WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY
Section 29.01. Seller and Purchaser hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive any and all right to trial by jury in any action, suit or counterclaim arising in connection with, out of or otherwise relating to this agreement. The provisions of this Section 29 shall survive the closing or the termination hereof.
SECTION 30: PREVAILING PARTY
Section 30.01. If any party hereto files any suit, commences any action, arbitration or other proceeding, or asserts any claim to enforce its rights under this Agreement, or to recover damages for the breach hereof, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in such suit or on appeal or in any bankruptcy or other insolvency proceedings.
