written notice of such termination to Seller at any time prior to the
expiration of the Inspection Period. If written notice is not received by

in any event on or before Four (4) business days prior to the expiration of the

modification or renewal affecting the Property without Purchaser's prior
written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Purchaser's consent
shall be deemed given if Purchaser has not responded to the contrary within

improvement obligations and leasing commissions set forth on Exhibit N attached
hereto. Seller agrees to pay the leasing commission obligations set forth on

to all other tenant improvements and leasing commission obligations set forth
on Exhibit N, Purchaser shall assume the obligations for the payment thereof
and credit Seller at Closing for any amounts paid toward the aforesaid tenant
improvements or leasing commission obligations (other than The Junkyard) set
forth on Exhibit N. In the event the current leases for the Property include
unsatisfied tenant improvement obligations or leasing commissions not listed on
Exhibit N, Seller shall be solely responsible for such tenant improvement
obligations and leasing commissions.
27. TENANT CERTIFICATE CONDITION TO CLOSING.
27.1. The following terms have been defined as follows for convenience
of reference:
(i) "Tenant Certificate" means a certificate, commonly known as an
estoppel certificate, signed by a tenant with respect to its Lease, either in
the form set forth on Exhibit L hereto or on such other form as is
substantially consistent with the requirements of the tenant's lease for such
certificates;
(ii) "Seller Tenant Certificate" means a Tenant Certificate signed by
the Seller with respect to a particular Lease for which the Tenant in question
has failed to execute and deliver a Tenant Certificate, in which case the
Seller Tenant Certificate shall be in the form of Exhibit L; provided further
that a Seller Tenant Certificate shall in all cases be limited to Seller's
knowledge as defined in Paragraph 16.1 hereof;
(iii) "Qualification" means any assertion in a Tenant Certificate
(whether in the form of Exhibit L or otherwise) of (i) a claim, counterclaim,
offset or defense against the landlord, (ii) a default on the part of the
landlord, (iii) unpaid credits, allowances or other sums due from the landlord
prior to the date of the estoppel (other than disclosed in Paragraph 12.1
herein or pursuant to a new lease pursuant to Xxxxxxxxx 00 xxxxxx), (xx) an
unfulfilled construction or other obligation on the part of the landlord prior
to the date of estoppel (other than disclosed in Paragraph 12.1 herein or
pursuant to a new lease pursuant to Paragraph 26 herein), or (v) information
which is contrary (in an adverse respect to the landlord) (x) to the
information contained in the rent roll attached hereto as Exhibit M, or (y) the
information pertaining to tenant allowances and concessions and leasing
commissions contained in Paragraph 12.1;
(iii) "Unacceptable Qualification" means any Qualification other
than the following:
(a) a Qualification which is expressly disclosed on the rent
roll attached hereto as Exhibit M or a Qualification relating to non-payment of
March, 1997 or April, 1997 rent, provided the same is not as a result of a
default by Landlord;
(b) a Qualification which is specifically and clearly disclosed
in the Lease of the Tenant in question which was delivered or made available to
Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period;
(c) a Qualification expressly disclosed in this Agreement or
the Exhibits hereto; or
(d) a disclosure by a Tenant of physical defects to the portion
of the Property generally known as the common area.
27.2. If a Qualification is not an Unacceptable Qualification, it
shall not affect Purchaser's obligations to close hereunder or give rise to any
liability from Seller to Purchaser.
27.3. Seller shall promptly request a Tenant Certificate in the form
of Exhibit L from all tenants, and shall vigorously, in good faith, pursue the
collection of the same. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser, upon Seller's
receipt thereof, all Tenant Certificates signed by tenants (whether in the form
of Exhibit L or otherwise). Purchaser shall have the right to assist Seller in
obtaining the Tenant Certificates.
27.4. It shall be a condition to Purchaser's obligations hereunder
(the "Estoppel Condition") that Seller deliver to Purchaser, at or prior to
5:00 p.m. Chicago time on April __, 1997 (i) a Tenant Certificate from Eckards,
Xxxx Dress for Less, Xxxxx'x Outlet, Fashion Bug, Clicks Billiards, and
Kimsworth, Inc., (ii) a Seller Tenant Certificate from Publix and (iii) a
Tenant Certificate or Seller Tenant Certificate from tenants occupying the
remainder of the occupied leasable area of the Property. Seller shall be
required to deliver to Purchaser all Tenant Certificates received by Seller
from the tenants at the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the
contrary, Seller shall not have satisfied the Estoppel Condition if any of the
Tenant Certificates received by Seller, disclose Unacceptable Qualifications
other than Unacceptable Qualifications with an "Estoppel Qualification Sum"
(hereinafter defined) of less than $50,000 in the aggregate. The "Estoppel
Qualification Sum" shall mean the following:
(i) if the claim asserted arises out of a defect which can be cured,
with the expenditure of money on a one time basis, such as a physical defect,
then such sum shall be calculated by a reasonable estimate of the cost to
repair or remediate said defect; and
(ii) if the claim asserted affects a continuing obligation of a
tenant under the lease, such as the payment of rent, then the claim shall be
calculated by (i) determining the amount of the claim on a per annum basis,
(ii) multiplying said amount by the number of years or partial years said claim
would affect the monetary obligations under the lease and (iii) discounting
said product on a present value basis using a discount rate of 10% per annum.
If the Unacceptable Qualifications have an Estoppel Qualification Sum of
less than $50,000 in the aggregate, then Seller shall either (i) grant
Purchaser a credit at Closing for an amount equal to the Estoppel Qualification
Sum, or (ii) cure all conditions giving rise to an Unacceptable Qualification
on or before the Closing. The determination to perform the covenant contained
in subparagraphs (i) or (ii) in the preceding sentence shall be made by Seller.
Provided Seller performs its covenant in this Paragraph 27.4, the disclosure of
Unacceptable Qualifications having an Estoppel Qualification Sum of less than
$50,000 in the aggregate shall not affect Purchaser's obligations to close
hereunder or give rise to any additional liability from Seller to Purchaser.
27.5. If Seller has not satisfied the Estoppel Condition on or before
5:00 p.m. Chicago time on April 14, 1997, then Purchaser shall have the right
to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller on or before
5:00 p.m. Chicago time on April 16, 1997. If Purchaser exercises its rights to
terminate in accordance with the terms of this Paragraph 27.5, this Agreement
shall be null and void without further action of the parties and all Xxxxxxx
Money theretofore deposited by Purchaser together with any interest accrued
thereon, shall be returned to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any
further liability to the other, except for Purchaser's obligation to indemnify
Seller and restore the Property, as more fully set forth in Paragraph 7 hereof.
If Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the first sentence
of this Paragraph 27.5, the parties shall proceed to Closing and (i) Purchaser
shall receive a credit at Closing equal to the amount of the Estoppel
Qualification Sum of the Unacceptable Qualifications contained in the Tenant
Certificates, up to an aggregate amount of $50,000 or (ii) Seller shall cure
all conditions giving rise to an Unacceptable Qualification Sum up to an
aggregate amount of $50,000. The determination to perform the covenant
contained in subparagraphs (i) or (ii) in the preceding sentence shall be made
by Seller.
27.6. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if
Seller does not satisfy the Estoppel Condition because the estoppel
qualification sum exceeds $50,000 and Purchaser has terminated the Agreement
pursuant to Paragraph 27.5, Seller shall have the right to vitiate Purchaser's
termination by written notice on or before 5:00 p.m. Chicago time on April 18,
1997 in which case the parties shall proceed to Closing and Seller shall either
(i) grant Purchaser at Closing for an amount to the Estoppel Qualification Sum
or (ii) cure all conditions giving rise to an Unacceptable Qualification on or
before the Closing. The determination to perform the covenant contained in
subparagraphs (i) or (ii) in the preceding sentence shall be made by Seller.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have put their hand and seal as of
the date first set forth above.
