6. PRELIMINARY TITLE REPORT AND OBJECTIONS. (a) Within ten (10) days after the Opening of Escrow, Escrow Agent shall deliver a current Preliminary Title Report (each, a “Report” and, collectively, the “Reports”) for an ALTA extended coverage title insurance policy (the “Owner’s Policy”) on the Premises to Buyer and Seller in the amount of the Purchase Price. The Report shall show the status of title to the Premises as of the date of the Report and shall also describe the requirements of Escrow Agent for the issuance of the Owner’s Policy. The cost of the Owner’s Policy shall be split equally by the Seller and Buyer; provided, however, that any additional costs for an extended coverage policy, endorsements thereto (excluding, however, those endorsements required to cure one or more Objectionable Matters (as defined herein), which endorsements shall be issued at Seller’s sole cost and expense), or any lender’s title policy shall be paid by Buyer. In addition to the Report, Escrow Agent shall simultaneously deliver to Buyer complete, legible copies of all documents identified in Part Two of Schedule B of the Report.

(b) If Buyer is dissatisfied with any exception to title as shown in the Report ( “Objectionable Report”), then Buyer may, by giving written notice thereof to Escrow Agent and Seller on or before expiration of the Study Period (as defined herein), either (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall be paid immediately to Buyer and all documents deposited in escrow by Buyer shall be returned to Buyer without delay, or (ii) provisionally accept the title to the Premises subject to Seller’s agreement, in Seller’s sole discretion, to cause the removal of any disapproved exceptions or objections, in which case Seller shall (at its sole cost) remove the exceptions or objections (or, if acceptable to Buyer, obtain title insurance endorsements over the exceptions and objections) before XXX.

If Buyer gives notice to Seller of its election of option (ii) above, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing within five (5) business days after receiving Buyer’s written notice of disapproval of any exceptions or objectionable matters (“Objectionable Matters”) whether Seller intends to remove (or endorse over) any such exception and/or objectionable matter. Seller’s lack of response shall be deemed as Seller’s refusal to remove the Objectionable Matters (or obtain title insurance endorsements over the Objectionable Matters) prior to XXX.

(c) In the event the Report is amended (an “Amended Report”) to include new exceptions that are not set forth in the prior Report, which materially affect title to, or the use of, the Premises, Buyer shall have until the later of (i) the expiration of the Study Period, (ii) the date seven (7) days after Buyer’s receipt of both such Amended Report and copies of the documents identified in the new exceptions or new requirements, or (iii) the date five (5) days after Buyer’s receipt of any Survey revised to reflect any such new exceptions within which to either (Y) terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 6(b) above or (Z) to provisionally accept the title to the Premises subject to Seller’s agreement to cause the removal of any disapproved exceptions or objections. Buyer shall, within ten (10) business days of receipt of the Amended Report, provide Seller with an updated Survey reflecting any such new exceptions, provided the same are capable of being shown on the Survey.

(d) In the event Buyer provisionally accepts title to the Premises pursuant to Sections 6(b) and/or 6(c) above, if Seller serves notice to Buyer that Seller does not intend to remove the Objectionable Matters from the Objectionable Report and/or Amended Report, as applicable, before XXX, or fails to timely respond to Buyer’s notice of Objectionable Matters, Buyer shall, within five (5) business days after receipt of such notice from Seller (or, if Seller fails to timely respond to notice of Objectionable Matters given by Buyer, within five (5) business days after the expiration of Seller’s five (5) business day response period) notify Seller and Escrow Agent in writing of Buyer’s election to either (i) terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 6(b) above, or (ii) waive such objections. If written notice of either satisfaction or dissatisfaction as to the Report is not timely given by Buyer to Seller pursuant to this Section 6, then Buyer shall be deemed to have disapproved of the condition of the title of the Premises and shall have elected to terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 6(b) above.

7. BUYER’S STUDY PERIOD.

(a) The Study Period. As to the Premises, Buyer shall have until 11:59 p.m. MST on the later of (i) the thirtieth (30th) day after the Effective Date, (ii) the thirtieth (30th) day after Buyer’s receipt of all deliveries of Seller’s Diligence Materials (as defined herein), or (iii) the tenth (10^th) day after Buyer’s receipt of the Survey (the “Study Period”), at Buyer’s sole cost, within which to conduct and approve any investigations, studies or tests deemed necessary by Buyer, in Buyer’s sole discretion, to determine the feasibility of acquiring the Premises, including, without limitation, Buyer’s right to: (i) review and approve the Survey, the Lease and the Contracts; (ii) meet and confer with Tenant, provided Purchaser first coordinates such communication with Seller and receives Seller’s consent, not to be unreasonably withheld; and (iii) obtain, review and approve an environmental study of the Premises (collectively, “Buyer’s Diligence”).

(i) should Buyer receive notice or knowledge of any information regarding any of the matters set forth in this Section 14 after the Effective Date and prior to XXX, Buyer will promptly notify Seller of the same in writing.

All representations, warranties and covenants made in this Agreement by Buyer shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and XXX until the first anniversary of the Closing Date, provided that, Buyer shall remain liable after such first anniversary for any breaches that Seller notifies Buyer of prior to such first anniversary.

15. RENTS AND DEPOSITS. Seller and Buyer agree that, in addition to all other conditions and covenants contained herein, Seller shall deliver to Buyer and Escrow Agent not later than the day immediately prior to XXX information, certified by Seller to be true and accurate as of the date thereof and as of the date of XXX, with respect to (i) the amount of Tenant’s security deposit under the Lease, if any, and (ii) prepaid and/or abated rents, including, without limitation, the amount thereof and the date to which such rents have been paid.

16. BROKER’S COMMISSION. Concerning any brokerage commission, the Parties agree as follows:

(a) the Parties warrant to one another that they have not dealt with any finder, broker or realtor in connection with this Agreement except Xxxxxxx Retail Group (Xxxx Xxxxxxx) (“Broker”);

(b) if any person shall assert a claim to a finder’s fee or brokerage commission on account of alleged employment as a finder or broker in connection with this Agreement (including Broker), the Party under whom the finder or broker is claiming shall indemnify and hold the other Party harmless from and against any such claim and all costs, expenses and liabilities incurred in connection with such claim or any action or proceeding brought on such claim, including, but not limited to, counsel and witness fees and court costs in defending against such claim. The provisions of this subsection shall survive cancellation of this Agreement or XXX; and

(c) Seller shall be responsible for payment of a commission to Broker in an amount previously agreed upon between Seller and Broker, which commission shall be paid at XXX.

17. CLOSE OF ESCROW. XXX shall be on or before 5:00 p.m. MST the fifteenth (15th) day after the expiration of the Study Period or such earlier date as Buyer may choose by giving written notice thereof to Seller and Escrow Agent (provided Seller can obtain the required estoppels and Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreements by such earlier date) (such date, the “Closing Date”). Buyer may extend the Closing Date for up to an additional thirty (30) days upon delivery of written notice to extend the Closing Date to Escrow Agent and Seller prior to the original Closing Date.

18. ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement may not be assigned by Seller without the prior written consent of Buyer which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer may assign its rights under this Agreement to an affiliate of Buyer without seeking or obtaining Seller’s consent. Such assignment shall not become effective until the assignee executes an instrument whereby such assignee expressly assumes each of the obligations of Buyer under this Agreement, including specifically, without limitation, all obligations concerning the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit. Buyer may also designate someone other than Buyer, as grantee and/or assignee, under the Transfer Documents by providing written notice of such designation at least five (5) business days prior to XXX. No assignment shall release or otherwise relieve Buyer from any obligations hereunder; provided, however, with respect to any assignment, if XXX occurs the assigning party (but not the assignee) shall be relieved of all its obligations arising under this Agreement before, on and after XXX.

19. RISK OF LOSS. Seller shall bear all risk of loss, damage or taking of the Premises which may occur prior to XXX. In the event of any loss, damage or taking with respect to the Premises prior to XXX, Buyer may, at Buyer’s sole option, by written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent within ten (10) days of Buyer’s receipt of notification of such loss, damage or taking, terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 6(b) above. In the alternative, Buyer may attempt to negotiate an appropriate downward adjustment of the Purchase Price. If Seller and Buyer cannot agree upon such a downward adjustment within a reasonable period (not to exceed ten (10) days from the date Buyer receives notice of the loss) Buyer may terminate this Agreement as provided above. In the event of any loss, damage or taking which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, Seller shall at XXX and as a condition precedent thereto, pay Buyer or credit Buyer against the Purchase Price the amount of any insurance or condemnation proceeds, or assign to Buyer, as of XXX and in a form acceptable to Buyer, all rights or claims for relief to the same.

20. REMEDIES.

(a) Seller’s Breach. If Seller breaches this Agreement and provided Seller has not cured such breach within fifteen (15) days of receipt of written notice from Buyer of the nature of said breach, Buyer may, at Buyer’s sole option, either: (i) by written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall be paid immediately by Escrow Agent to Buyer, Seller shall promptly reimburse to Buyer its reasonable out-of-pocket and third-party property diligence expenses incurred not to exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither of the Parties shall have any further liability or obligation hereunder; or (iii) seek specific performance against Seller in which event XXX shall be automatically extended as necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if specific performance is unavailable as a remedy to Buyer because of Seller’s affirmative act or intentional omission, Buyer shall be entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available at law or in equity. This limitation of damages does not apply to the indemnification under Section 16.

(b) Buyer’s Breach. If Buyer breaches this Agreement and provided Buyer has not cured such breach within fifteen (15) days of receipt of written notice from Seller of the nature of said breach, Seller, as its sole remedy, shall be entitled to retain the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit in accordance with subsection 5(b) as Seller’s agreed and total liquidated damages, and Buyer shall pay for all title and escrow charges incurred. Seller hereby waives any right to seek any equitable or legal remedies against Buyer.

21. ATTORNEYS’ FEES. If there is any litigation to enforce any provisions or rights arising under this Agreement, the unsuccessful party in such litigation, as determined by the court, agrees to pay the successful party, as determined by the court, all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the successful party, such fees to be determined by the court. For purposes of this Section 21, a party will be considered to be the “successful party” if (a) such party initiated the litigation and substantially obtained the relief which it sought (whether by judgment, voluntary agreement or action of the other party, trial, or alternative dispute resolution process), (b) such party did not initiate the litigation and either (i) received a judgment in its favor, or (ii) did not receive judgment in its favor, but the party receiving the judgment did not substantially obtain the relief which it sought, or (c) the other party to the litigation withdrew its claim or action without having substantially received the relief which it was seeking.

23. CLOSING COSTS.

(a) Closing Costs. Seller and Buyer agree to pay closing costs as indicated in this Agreement and in the escrow instructions attached hereto as Exhibit F, and by this reference incorporated herein (the “Escrow Instructions”). At XXX, Seller shall pay (i) the costs of releasing all liens, judgments, and other encumbrances that are to be released and of recording such releases, (ii) one-half the fees and costs due Escrow Agent for its services, (iii) one-half of the transfer tax associated with the sale of the Premises, if any, (iv) one-half of the cost of a standard Owner’s Policy, and (v) all other costs to be paid by Seller under this Agreement. At XXX, Buyer shall pay (i) one-half the fees and costs due Escrow Agent for its services, (ii) one-half of the cost of a standard Owner’s Policy, (iii) the incremental cost, if any, for extended coverage to the Owner’s Policy, (iv) the cost of all endorsements to the Owner’s Policy requested by Buyer, (v) the cost of any lender’s policy of title insurance, (vi) one-half of the transfer tax associated with the sale of the Premises, if any, (vii) the cost of the Survey and (viii) all other costs to be paid by Buyer under this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, Seller and Buyer will each be solely responsible for and bear all of their own respective expenses, including, without limitation, expenses of legal counsel, accountants, and other advisors incurred at any time in connection with pursuing or consummating the transaction contemplated herein. Real estate taxes shall be prorated based upon the current valuation and latest available tax rates as of the date of rent commencement under the Lease. Tenant is responsible for all taxes as of the date of rent commencement under the Lease. All prorations shall be calculated through escrow as of XXX based upon the latest available information, including, without limitation, a credit to Buyer for any rent prepaid by Tenant for the period beginning with and including the date on which the closing occurs through and including the last day of the month in which the closing occurs. All other credits to Buyer shall be similarly prorated. If XXX is on or after the 20^th day of the calendar month in which XXX occurs, the monthly base rent due to Buyer under the terms of the Lease for the full calendar month of the month following the day on which XXX occurs (the “Initial Rent”) shall be credited to Buyer at XXX (and, in such event, Tenant shall pay the Initial Rent to Seller and, notwithstanding the terms of the Lease, shall not be obligated to make a payment for the Initial Rent to Buyer). Any other closing costs not specifically designated as the responsibility of either Party in the Escrow Instructions or in this Agreement shall be paid by Seller and Buyer according to the usual and customary allocation of the same by Escrow Agent. Seller agrees that all closing costs payable by Seller shall be deducted from Seller’s proceeds otherwise payable to Seller at XXX. Buyer shall deposit with Escrow Agent sufficient cash to pay all of Buyer’s closing costs. Except as provided in this Section 23(a), Seller and Buyer shall each bear their own costs in regard to this Agreement.

(b) Post-Closing Adjustment. If after XXX, the parties discover any errors in adjustments and apportionments or additional information becomes available which would render the closing prorations inaccurate, the same shall be corrected as soon after their discovery as possible. The provision of this Section 23(b) shall survive XXX except that no adjustment shall be made later than twelve (12) months after XXX unless prior to such date the Party seeking the adjustment shall have delivered a written notice to the other Party specifying the nature and basis for such claim; provided, however, in the event an adjustment is sought due to the fact that current tax bills with respect to the Property had not yet been issued as of XXX, the provisions of this Section 23(b) shall survive with respect to any closing proration of real property taxes until thirty (30) days after Buyer’s receipt of tax bills for the period of time during which XXX occurred. In the event that such claim is valid, the Party against whom the claim is sought shall have ten (10) days in which to remit any adjustment due.

(c) Instructions. This Agreement, together with the Escrow Instructions, shall constitute escrow instructions for the transaction contemplated herein. Such escrow instructions shall be construed as applying principally to Escrow Agent’s employment.

24. ESCROW CANCELLATION CHARGES. If escrow fails to close because of Seller’s default, Seller shall be liable for any cancellation charges of Escrow Agent. If escrow fails to close because of Buyer’s default, Buyer shall be liable for any cancellation charges of Escrow Agent. If escrow fails to close for any other reason, Buyer shall be liable for any cancellation charges of Escrow Agent and all title charges to date. The provisions of this Section 24 shall survive cancellation of this Agreement.

25. APPROVALS. Concerning all matters in this Agreement requiring the consent or approval of any Party, the Parties agree that any such consent or approval shall not be unreasonably withheld unless otherwise provided in this Agreement.

26. RELEASES. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Seller and anyone claiming through Seller hereby releases Tenant from any and all claims of whatever kind or nature, in law or equity, whether now known or unknown to Seller, whether contingent or matured, that Seller may now have or hereafter acquire against Tenant for any costs, loss, liability, damage, expenses, demand, action or cause of action arising from or related to the Lease arising from events occurring prior to XXX.

27. ADDITIONAL ACTS. The Parties agree to execute promptly such other documents and to perform such other acts as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of this Agreement.

28. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed or enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan. In regard to any litigation which may arise in regard to this Agreement, the Parties shall and do hereby submit to the jurisdiction of and the Parties hereby agree that the proper venue shall be in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Michigan.

29. CONSTRUCTION. The terms and provisions of this Agreement represent the results of negotiations among the Parties, each of which has been represented by counsel of its own choosing, and neither of which has acted under any duress or compulsion, whether legal, economic or otherwise. Consequently, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with their usual and customary meanings, and the Parties each hereby waive the application of any rule of law which would otherwise be applicable in connection with the interpretation and construction of this Agreement that ambiguous or conflicting terms or provisions contained in this Agreement shall be interpreted or construed against the Party whose attorney prepared the executed Agreement or any earlier draft of the same.

30. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence of this Agreement. However, if this Agreement requires any act to be done or action to be taken on a date which is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, such act or action shall be deemed to have been validly done or taken if done or taken on the next succeeding day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, and the successive periods shall be deemed extended accordingly.

31. INTERPRETATION. If there is any specific and direct conflict between, or any ambiguity resulting from, the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any document, instrument or other agreement executed in connection herewith or in furtherance hereof, including any Exhibits hereto, the same shall be consistently interpreted in such manner as to give effect to the general purposes and intention as expressed in this Agreement which shall be deemed to prevail and control.

32. HEADINGS. The headings of this Agreement are for reference only and shall not limit or define the meaning of any provision of this Agreement.

37. INDEMNITY. Seller shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Buyer, Buyer’s affiliates, the partners, trustees, shareholders, members, directors, officers, attorneys, employees and agents of each of them, and their respective heirs, successors, personal representatives and assigns (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from any and all demands, claims (including, without limitation, causes of action in tort), legal or administrative proceedings, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties, fines, liens, judgments, costs or expenses whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs), whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen (collectively, “Claims”) that may arise on account of or in any way be connected with any actions, suits, proceedings or claims brought by third parties against Buyer (a) relating to any actual or alleged events, acts or omissions occurring with respect to the Premises prior to XXX that were not relating in any way to Buyer’s Due Diligence activities on the Premises, and/or (b) based upon Buyer’s ownership of the Premises but with respect to which the claimed loss, damage or injury occurred prior to XXX. Buyer shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Seller, Seller’s affiliates, the partners, trustees, shareholders, members, directors, officers, attorneys, employees and agents of each of them, and their respective heirs, successors, personal representatives and assigns from any and all Claims that may arise on account of or in any way be connected with any actions, suits, proceedings or claims brought by third parties against Seller (y) relating to any actual or alleged events, acts or omissions occurring with respect to the Premises relating in any way to Buyer’s Due Diligence activities on each Premises or from and after XXX, and/or (z) based upon Seller’s ownership of the Premises but with respect to which the claimed loss, damage or injury occurred from and after XXX. The provisions of this Section 37 shall survive XXX.

38. PRIVILEGE TAXES. Seller represents, warrants and covenants to Buyer that all state and local transaction privilege, sales, excise, use or similar taxes relating to the development, sale (excluding transfer tax which shall be split equally between Buyer and Seller) or rental of the Premises (including, without limitation any speculative builder tax, owner-builder tax, or construction contractor tax) which become due as of the XXX have been paid. Seller shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Indemnified Parties from any and all Claims relating to a breach of the preceding sentence. The provisions of this Section shall survive XXX until the first anniversary of the Closing Date, provided that, Seller shall remain liable after such first anniversary for any breaches that Buyer notifies Seller of prior to such first anniversary.

39. REPAIR ITEMS HOLDBACK.

If the Estoppel indicates that there are any repair items still to be completed or repaired by Seller with respect to any Premises (“Repair Items”) and if, prior to XXX, Tenant has not certified to Seller in writing that such items have been completed to Tenant’s reasonable satisfaction, Buyer and Seller agree to escrow an amount equal to One Hundred Twenty-Five Percent (125%) of the estimated cost to cure all Repair Items yet uncured as of XXX (such cost to be estimated by Seller’s general contractor or architect, subject to Buyer’s reasonable approval of such estimate) (the “Repair Items Escrow”). The Repair Items Escrow shall be retained by the Escrow Agent from the Purchase Price paid by Buyer with respect to such Premises and shall be held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement executed by Buyer, Seller and the Escrow Agent, which shall provide, in part, for release of the Repair Items Escrow to Seller upon written confirmation from Tenant of the satisfactory completion of the Repair Items and as more particularly set forth below.

After Closing, Seller and its agents and contractors shall have access to the applicable Premises to complete the Repair Items, subject to the rights of Tenant under the Lease. If Buyer has not received such written confirmation from Tenant that all such items have been completed to Tenant’s reasonable satisfaction within ninety (90) days following XXX (the “Repair Items Cure Deadline”), or if Buyer has received notice from Tenant that Buyer is in default of its obligations with respect to the Repair Items pursuant to the applicable Lease, then Buyer shall be entitled, but not obligated, to undertake the cure of any remaining Repair Items and in connection therewith shall be entitled to retain up to the entire balance of the Repair Escrow upon presentation to Seller of invoices and other receipts for expenses reasonably incurred in connection therewith. Further, upon presentation by Buyer of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Seller that Buyer expended amounts in excess of the amount of the Repair Items Escrow to complete such Repair Items, Seller shall pay or cause to be paid to Buyer an amount equal to such excess within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such evidence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Seller reasonably demonstrates to Buyer that the Repair Items have been completed prior to the expiration of the Repair Items Cure Deadline and that the failure of Buyer to receive written confirmation from Tenant of such completion is due to Tenant’s delay in reviewing the Repair Items, then the Repair Items Cure Deadline shall be extended until Tenant completes its review of the Repair Items and issues its confirmation (or disapproval) of such Repair Items and Seller is afforded such additional time as is permitted pursuant to the Lease to complete the remaining Repair Items.

40. LIEN RELEASE CONDITION. Seller and Buyer hereby acknowledge and agree that (a) the Premises are encumbered by one or more liens securing debt of Seller (the “Existing Liens”) with limitations on Seller’s ability to prepay such debt, (b) Seller shall exercise good faith efforts to negotiate prepayment terms with its lenders that are reasonably acceptable to both Seller and such lenders (the “Prepayment Terms”), and (c) Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in the event Seller has not negotiated final Prepayment Terms and provided written confirmation of such fact to Buyer, prior to the expiration of the Study Period, whereupon the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall be paid immediately to Buyer, all documents deposited in escrow by Buyer shall be returned to Buyer without delay, Seller shall promptly reimburse to Buyer all reasonable out-of-pocket and third-party property diligence expenses incurred by Buyer related to the Premises, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs (provided, however, such reimbursement obligation shall not exceed $25,000.00), and neither of the Parties shall have any further liability or obligation under this Agreement. If, at XXX, Seller is unable to deliver the Premises free of all Existing Liens, Seller shall be in breach of this Agreement, and in the event Seller fails to cure such breach on or before November 15, 2011, Seller shall promptly pay to Buyer liquidated damages in the amount of $25,000.00, and neither of the Parties shall have any further liability or obligation under this Agreement.
