Any uncured objection which has been waived by Buyer shall be deemed to be a Permitted Exception.

The parties expressly agree that Seller shall have no obligation to cure any objections Buyer may have to any Review Item Issues identified in or in connection with any of the Review Items or to correct or repair any title, survey, environmental, structural or other defect or anomaly which Buyer may discover or determine exists during the Review Period. In the event Buyer nevertheless elects to proceed in accordance with the terms and conditions herein, BUYER UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT SUCH ELECTION SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A WAIVER OF ANY CLAIM THAT BUYER HAS OR MAY HAVE TO INDEMNIFICATION, RECOMPENSE, DAMAGE OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AGAINST SELLER WITH RESPECT TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, THAT BUYER SHALL ACQUIRE THE PROPERTY ON AN “AS IS, WHERE IS” BASIS, AND THAT BUYER SHALL HAVE NO CLAIM WHATSOEVER AGAINST SELLER FOR ANY EXISTING PHYSICAL CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION), NOR SHALL BUYER HAVE ANY CLAIM AGAINST SELLER FOR ANY OF THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION OR OTHER DOCUMENTATION HERETOFORE OR HEREAFTER SUBMITTED TO BUYER IN CONNECTION WITH BUYER’S INSPECTION OF THE PROPERTY AND REVIEW OF ITS OPERATIONS.
