4. Amendment.
Section
6(a)
and
Section
6(b)
of the
Agreement are hereby deleted in their entirety and the following is hereby
inserted in their place:
“(a)
For
the
purposes of this Agreement, “good
and marketable fee simple title”
shall
mean fee simple ownership that is: (i) free of all claims, liens and
encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever other than the Permitted
Exceptions (as defined in this Section
6(a)),
and
(ii) insurable by Escrow Agent, at the then current standard rates under the
standard form of ALTA owner’s policy of title insurance (ALTA Form B or
equivalent), with the standard printed exceptions therein deleted, without
exception other than for the Permitted Exceptions and containing such coverages
and endorsements as shall be reasonably required by Buyer’s counsel (the
“Title
Policy”).
For
the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Permitted
Exceptions”
shall
mean: (A) current taxes not yet due and payable, (B) tenants in possession
under
unrecorded residential leases affecting the Property, as tenants only without
any rights to purchase the Property, and (C) such other matters not specifically
objected to in writing by Buyer on or before August 8, 2008 (the “Title
and Survey Inspection Period”).
(b) During
the Inspection Period, Buyer shall obtain a title insurance commitment from
Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx Title, Inc., as agent for the Escrow Agent, together
with copies of all of the encumbrances listed therein (the “Commitment”).
During the Title and Survey Inspection Period, Buyer shall examine the
Commitment and the Survey (as defined in Section
7
hereof),
and give Seller written notice of objections that render Seller’s title to the
Property less than good and marketable fee simple title and any objections
to
the Survey (each a “Defect”),
except
that Buyer shall not object to liens for real estate taxes not yet due and
payable and shall not be required to object to voluntary
mortgage liens, security interests, tax liens for delinquent taxes or mechanics
liens placed or caused by Seller’s actions, including without limitation the
Redi-Floors Claim
(as
defined in Section
12(e)
hereof),
it being understood and agreed by the parties the Seller shall be obligated
to
satisfy such liens, or cause such exceptions to be removed from the Title Policy
by Closing.
Thereafter, Buyer shall have until the Closing Date in which to reexamine the
Commitment and Survey and in which to give Seller written notice of any
additional objections for matters not existing during the Title and Survey
Inspection Period and disclosed by such reexamination (each a “Defect”).
Seller shall have until ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date in which to
satisfy all Defects specified in Buyer’s initial notice of title objections, and
until the Closing Date in which to satisfy the Defects specified in the
subsequent notice by Buyer of title objections first disclosed during the
re-examination provided for in the third sentence of this Section
6(b).
Seller
shall notify Buyer that a Defect has been cured upon the curing of such Defect.
The parties hereto hereby agree that the letter from Buyer to Seller dated
August 5, 2008 regarding Title Objections is hereby rescinded and is of no
further force and effect.”
5. Purchase
of the Entity.
The
following is hereby inserted immediately following Section
37

Property as of the Closing Date and that Buyer must arrange for its
own

with
Section

of
this Agreement. On or prior to and in any event within ninety (90)

ordinary course of business that relate in any way to the ownership
or
operation of the Property prior to the Closing to be paid, excluding
only
payment obligations for which Buyer receives a credit or apportionment
at
Closing.
|
(6) |
The
Seller has never engaged in any business activity other than the
ownership
and operation of the Property and does not own and has never owned
any
other assets except the Property.
|
(8) |

August
13, 2008 and shall update same within five (5) days before Closing,

indemnify, defend, save, and hold harmless Buyer, and Buyer’s officers,
directors, members, partners, employees, agents, successors, and assigns,
against and in respect to all Damages (as hereinafter defined), provided a
written claim is made by Buyer to Entity Owner on or prior to a date that is

used
herein shall include only loss or damage (but not consequential damages) in
respect of a breach of a representation and warranty in Section 38(b).

Buyer
shall purchase the Ownership Interest at Closing, then the full Purchase Price
shall be paid to Entity Owner and in addition, Buyer shall reimburse Entity

provisions of this Section 38
shall
survive the Closing and delivery of the Assignment to Buyer for a period of
six
(6) months following the Closing.”
6. Inspection
Period.

optional termination provisions of Section
5(c)
of the
Agreement are hereby waived and of no further force and effect.

Law.

Third Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of Tennessee.

counterpart. Each such counterpart shall be deemed an original and all of such

counterpart executed by a party hereto and transmitted to the other parties
hereto via facsimile or electronic mail transmission will have the same effect
as the delivery of the original counterpart.
9. Full
Force and Effect.
Except
as herein modified and amended, the terms and conditions of the Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect.
