Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time on or before that date which is thirty (30) days after the Effective Date (the "Inspection Period") if Purchaser in its sole discretion shall have determined that the Property is not suitable for the Purchaser’s use. Seller agrees to permit Purchaser reasonable access to the Land and Improvements and the books and records of Xxxxxxx Arizona, LLC relating to the Property (other than any general ledgers of Seller) for the purpose of reviewing, inspecting and evaluating the Land, the Improvements, the Fixtures and the records relating thereto, as Purchaser deems reasonably necessary to determine the suitability of the Property for Purchaser's purposes; provided, however, Purchaser shall not conduct any environmental investigations of the Property beyond a Phase I environmental site assessment (i.e., no sampling or drilling) without first obtaining Seller’s prior written consent.

The Due Diligence Items (as defined below) shall be delivered to Purchaser or made available to Purchaser for review and copying at the office of the property manager for each respective portion of the Property. Purchaser's inspection shall be at Purchaser's sole cost and expense. Purchaser agrees that Purchaser will not interfere with or disturb any of the tenants, nor interfere with or disturb the work of any persons performing work under any contracts or agreements. Purchaser will indemnify and hold Seller harmless from all mechanics' and materialmen's liens or other claims, damages, liabilities or expenses resulting from access to and entry upon the Property or inspections performed by Purchaser, its agents, representatives and/or contractors, except to the extent caused by Seller's negligence or willful misconduct. Purchaser shall repair all damage caused by Purchaser's tests and studies. In the event Purchaser has not notified Seller, in writing, prior to the end of the Inspection Period that it is unconditionally satisfied with the results of its due diligence and inspections, it shall be conclusively presumed that the conditions precedent described in this Section have not been met and that Purchaser has unconditionally and irrevocably elected to terminate this Agreement. In the event this Agreement so terminates, the Title Company shall, upon receipt of written notice from Purchaser confirming the termination of this Agreement, deliver to Purchaser the Contract Deposit and no party shall have any further obligation to the others hereunder, except for those obligations which expressly are to survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. In the event this Agreement is not terminated then, except as otherwise specifically provided by this Agreement, the Contract Deposit shall be nonrefundable to Purchaser and Purchaser shall have no right to terminate this Agreement.
Within five (5) business days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser, for Purchaser’s review and approval, copies of the items in the possession of Seller or under Seller’s control listed on Exhibit D attached hereto (collectively, the “Due Diligence Items”), except for tenant lease files in item (f) (other than the lease agreements) and any items listed in item (h) of the Due Diligence Items which shall be made available to Purchaser for review and copying at the office of Seller's property manager. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have no obligation to deliver any Due Diligence Item that Seller is contractually or otherwise prohibited from disclosing provided, that, Seller shall provide written notice to Purchaser of any Due Diligence Items in the possession or control of Seller and withheld by virtue of such prohibition. Except as set forth in Section 5.3, Seller makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the contents or completeness of the Due Diligence Items other than the Leases.
If this Agreement is terminated, the Due Diligence Items and all copies thereof, received by Purchaser shall be immediately delivered to Seller. The Due Diligence Items, results of inspections performed by or on behalf of Purchaser and contents thereof shall remain confidential and shall not be disclosed by Purchaser to any person or entity, except (i) Purchaser’s employees, (ii) Purchaser’s board of directors, and (iii) Purchaser’s legal counsel and agents engaged by Purchaser in connection with its potential purchase of the Property, but such disclosure shall only be permitted to the extent Purchaser has complied with the confidentiality agreement already executed by Purchaser in connection with its review of the Property.

Unless Purchaser elects to continue this Agreement by delivery of written notice in accordance with the foregoing, the Contract Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further rights, duties or obligations hereunder, except those duties and obligations expressly stated in the Agreement as surviving shall survive the early termination of the Agreement. If Purchaser elects to proceed with Closing, then Purchaser shall be entitled to any and all insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds payable as a result of the damage, destruction or taking, and to the extent the same may be necessary or appropriate, the Seller shall assign to Purchaser at Closing Seller's rights to such proceeds and pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the deductible under the applicable policy.

If, prior to Closing, the Improvements are destroyed, damaged or become subject to condemnation or eminent domain proceedings, and the cost of repair, restore or replace such destruction, damage or taking is less than One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) (as reasonably estimated by Seller), then both Seller and Purchaser agree to proceed with this Agreement and Purchaser shall be entitled to any and all insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds payable as a result of the damage, destruction or taking, and to the extent the same may be necessary or appropriate, Seller shall assign to Purchaser at Closing Seller’s rights to such proceeds and pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the deductible under the applicable policy.

7.
Adjustments at Closing.
(a)
Prorations shall be made as follows:
(i)
Insurance premiums shall not be prorated. Seller will terminate its coverage as to the Property effective as of the Closing Date and Purchaser shall obtain its own insurance. Utility deposits shall not be transferred. Seller shall obtain the return of any of its accounts in a manner satisfactory to Seller in its sole discretion as of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall be responsible for paying its own utility deposits, and having its name placed on the applicable utility account commencing on the Closing Date.
(ii)
Payments by tenants actually received by Seller prior to Closing which are applicable in whole or part to any period after Closing, for: (1) common area maintenance charges, taxes, operating expense escalations and other similar tenant charges, whether based on actual amounts or estimates (herein called "Expense Reimbursements"); and (2) rents shall be prorated as of midnight on the day preceding Closing on the basis of a 365 day year and on the basis of the actual number of days in the month in which Closing occurs, with Seller being credited for all of same up to (but not including) the Closing Date and Purchaser being credited for same on and after the Closing Date. If Expense Reimbursements paid or payable by tenants for the period prior to Closing exceed the actual amounts chargeable therefor to tenants for such period, and as a result such excess amounts are subsequently payable to tenants, then such excess amounts shall be estimated at Closing by Seller, and Purchaser shall receive a credit therefor against the Purchase Price at Closing. If Expense Reimbursements paid or owed by tenants for the period prior to Closing for the portion of the Property owned by Seller are less than the actual amounts chargeable therefor to tenants for such period, and have previously been paid by Seller and as a result additional amounts are subsequently payable by tenants, then such additional amounts shall be estimated at Closing and Purchaser shall pay such additional amounts to Seller as an addition to the Purchase Price at Closing. If the actual amounts of Expense Reimbursements and rents for the portion of the Property owned by Seller are not known as of the Closing Date, the prorations for Seller’s portion of the Property shall be made on the basis of the best evidence then available (such evidence to be submitted to Purchaser and Seller for their reasonable approval). No prorations shall be made at Closing with respect to any rents or Expense Reimbursements that are delinquent as of the Closing Date ("Delinquent Amounts"). Purchaser shall make a good faith attempt (using the same collection efforts Purchaser would use for its own collections but Purchaser shall not be required to institute any suit) to collect Delinquent Amounts for the Seller's benefit after the Closing, and such collections, if any, shall be remitted to the Seller promptly upon receipt by Purchaser after applying all such collections first to amounts then due from tenants for any period after the Closing. Seller retains its rights and remedies with respect to any Delinquent Amounts owed to Seller, except that Seller shall not be entitled to terminate any lease or evict any tenant. Purchaser will receive a credit against the Purchase Price for all security deposits previously delivered to Seller under the Leases except those that have been properly applied. Purchaser will have the obligation to return the security deposits pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Leases, which obligation shall survive Closing.
(iii)
Subject to the provisions of Section 7.3(a)(i) and (ii) above, all normal and customarily pro ratable items of expense and income, including without limitation real estate and personal property taxes (reduced by Seller’s reasonable estimate of the amount thereof which will be paid or reimbursed by tenants), utility bills (with the meters to be read the day prior to Closing, to the extent possible) and common area maintenance charges shall be prorated as of midnight on the day preceding the Closing Date, on the basis of a 365 day year and on the basis of the actual number of days in the calendar month in which Closing occurs, Seller being charged and credited for all of same up to the Closing Date and Purchaser being charged and credited for all of same on and after the Closing Date. If the actual amounts to be prorated are not known as of the Closing Date, the prorations shall be made on the basis of the best evidence then available.
(iv)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have the right to all refunds or rebates on account of real estate tax protests or appeals for taxes assessed with respect to the years prior to 2003 for the Property, subject to Seller's obligation to reimburse tenants for any rebates or refunds to which said tenants may be entitled under the applicable Leases which obligation Seller hereby agrees to make reasonable efforts to undertake. Seller and, after Closing, Purchaser shall each have the right, but not the obligation, to appeal or otherwise challenge real estate taxes assessed against the Property for calendar year 2003 and the parties agree to prorate all refunds or rebates on account of real estate tax protests or appeals for taxes assessed for calendar year 2003 based upon each parties' period of ownership of the Property in calendar year 2003. Purchaser shall have control of and responsibility for all appeals and other challenges with respect to real estate taxes assessed against the Property for calendar year 2004 and thereafter. Seller shall keep Purchaser advised on a current basis of all action (including, without limitation, any written submissions or appearances before the taxing authority) taken with respect to appeals or other challenges of taxes and provide Purchaser's representative the opportunity to be present (provided such representative shall not participate) at all hearings or meetings. The foregoing provisions of this subsection (iv) shall survive Closing.
(v)
If at any time following the Closing, the amount of an item listed in any section of this Section 7.3 shall prove to be incorrect (whether as a result in an error in calculation or a lack of complete and accurate information as of the Closing), the party in whose favor the error was made shall promptly pay to the other party the sum necessary to correct such error upon receipt of proof of such error, provided that such proof is delivered to the party from whom payment is requested on or before one (1) year after Closing. In order to enable Seller to determine whether any such delayed adjustment is necessary, Purchaser shall provide to Seller current operating and financial statements for the Property no later than the date one (1) month prior to the expiration of such one (1) year period following Closing. The provisions of this Section 7.3(a)(v) shall survive the Closing and not be merged therein.
(b)
With respect to any Lease Transactions (as defined in Section 10.13) and/or any lease commission agreements entered into by Seller after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing Date with respect to the Property, which Purchaser approves or is deemed to have approved pursuant to Section 10.13, all costs incurred by Seller associated with such Lease Transactions for tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions (collectively "Leasing Costs") shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at Closing. Such proration shall be based upon the respective portions of the fixed or base rental payable during the applicable term of any such Lease Transaction which shall be attributable to the time periods before and after the Closing (for example, the applicable term of a new Lease would be the initial term, while the applicable term of a lease renewal would be the exercised renewal term). With respect to any new Property Agreement, leasing commission agreement and/or Lease Transaction which, pursuant to Section 10.13 requires Purchaser's prior written approval or rejection, Seller shall provide Purchaser with a copy of any offer or proposal or proposed lease or contract regarding same and Purchaser agrees to promptly respond to same, in all events within three (3) business days of receipt.
(c)
Except as provided in Section 7.3 (b), Seller shall be responsible for all Leasing Costs which are due and payable prior to the Closing Date. Purchaser shall be responsible for all Leasing Costs which are due and payable after the Closing Date, including all Leasing Costs associated with any expansion, extension or renewal options of the Leases.
7.
Possession. Possession of the Property, together with keys, combinations and access codes to the Building and other Improvements, shall be delivered to Purchaser at Closing.
7.
Costs of Closing. Each party hereto shall be responsible for paying the fees of its legal counsel, if any, in negotiating, preparing, and closing this transaction. Seller shall be responsible for paying fees, costs, and expenses identified herein as being the responsibility of Seller, and Purchaser shall be responsible for paying all fees, costs, and expenses identified herein as being the responsibility of Purchaser. Purchaser shall pay all recording costs for the deed and the other conveyance documents. Seller shall pay all recording costs associated with any curative actions taken by Seller pursuant to Section 4.5 and any transfer taxes due to the State of Arizona, if any. All closing escrow fees shall be borne equally by Seller and Purchaser.
ARTICLE . Defaults and Remedies
8.
Seller’s Default.
()
Seller shall be deemed to be in default if Seller shall fail to meet, comply with, or perform any covenant, agreement, or obligation on Seller’s part required within the time limits and in the manner required in this Agreement (including without limitation, the cure period provided for below); provided all conditions precedent to Seller’s performance have been fully satisfied; and provided further that any failure of Seller to cure timely objections made by Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.5 of this Agreement shall not constitute a default herein.
()
In the event Seller shall be deemed to be in default, Purchaser shall transmit written notice of such default to Seller and Seller shall have thirty (30) days from date of receipt of such notice to cure such default. Should Seller fail to timely cure such default, Purchaser may, as its sole and exclusive remedies for such default, (i) waive the default and close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or (ii) terminate this Agreement (save and except any indemnity obligations of Purchaser and Seller which expressly survive termination and the right of Purchaser after Closing to enforce its rights against Seller under applicable law as a result of a breach by Seller of its warranties and representations in Section 5.3), recover from Seller the amount of out of pocket expenses actually paid by Purchaser in connection with its proposed purchase of the Property and be excused from further performance of its purchase obligation hereunder. Upon written notice by Purchaser to Seller and the Title Company, the Contract Deposit will be returned to Purchaser (as defined in Section 5.1), or (iii) seek and obtain specific performance of Seller’s obligation to convey the Property. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall have no liability for losses, damages, costs and expenses suffered or incurred by Purchaser due to Seller’s defaults under and breaches under this Agreement or other wise (collectively, "Losses") until the aggregate amount of the Losses exceed Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($5,000.00). Seller’s aggregate liability for Losses shall not exceed Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00). Purchaser agrees to first seek available recovery from other sources (including, without limitation, insurance policies, service contracts, estoppels certificates and leases) prior to seeking recovery from Seller, and Seller shall not be liable to Purchaser if Purchaser's claim is satisfied from such other sources. The remedies expressly set forth in this Section 8.1 shall be the only remedies available to Purchaser as a result of Seller’s default under or breach under the Agreement.
()
Under no circumstances, shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for damages in excess of the sum set forth in Section 8.1(b), nor shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for any consequential or punitive damages whether same are contemplated hereby or not.
8.
Purchaser's Defaults.
()
Purchaser shall be deemed to be in default if Purchaser shall fail to deliver, at the Closing, the items required to be delivered by Purchaser to Seller (for any reason other than a default by Seller) or if Purchaser otherwise shall fail to perform any of its other covenants or obligations hereunder.
()
In the event Purchaser shall be deemed to be in default, as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy for such default, seller may terminate this Agreement whereupon Seller shall be entitled to the contract deposit, it being agreed between Purchaser and Seller that the contract deposit shall be liquidated damages for a default of Purchaser hereunder because of the difficulty, inconvenience, and uncertainty of ascertaining actual damages for such default. The parties have discussed and negotiated in good faith upon the questions of damages to be suffered by Seller in the event Purchaser defaults under this Agreement and the Closing does not occur as a result, and they hereby agree that Seller’s actual damages in the event of such a breach would be impractical or extremely difficult to determine. Accordingly, the parties agree that liquidated damages in the amount of the contract deposit then made under this Agreement, are and will be reasonable. In the event of such default and failure to close, Seller’s sole recourse shall be to receive such liquidated damages, and Purchaser shall have no additional liability whatsoever. All indemnity obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Governing Law: Venue. This Agreement is executed, delivered and is intended to be performed in Maricopa County, Arizona and the laws of the State of Arizona shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement, and interpretation of this Agreement. Proper venue for any action arising under or relating to the Agreement shall be in the state or federal district courts in Maricopa County, Arizona. All parties hereto consent to personal jurisdiction in Maricopa County, Arizona and waive whatever rights they have to be sued elsewhere.
10.
Entirety and Amendments. This writing embodies the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior oral and written agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the Property, and may be amended or supplemented only by an instrument in writing executed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No salesman, employee or agent of Seller has any authority whatsoever to make any reference, representation or agreement not contained in this Agreement and only the references, representations and/or agreements contained in this Agreement shall be binding upon Seller or in any way affect the validity of any part of this Agreement. Purchaser acknowledges that no representations have been made by Seller or any of Seller’s agents or employees other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement.
10.
Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement, except the provisions relating to Seller's obligation to convey the Property and Purchaser's obligation to pay the Purchase Price, the invalidity of either of which shall cause this Agreement to be null and void, is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws, such provision shall be fully severable; this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any illegality, invalidity or unenforceable provision which would result in this Agreement being null or void as to one Seller, but not the other, shall not be severable.
10.
Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in a number of identical counterparts. If so executed, each of such counterparts shall be deemed an original for all purposes, and all such counterparts shall, collectively, constitute one Agreement, but, in making proof of this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.
10.
Parties Bound; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Seller and Purchaser, and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors, and permitted assigns. Purchaser may not assign this Agreement or Purchaser's rights hereunder without Seller's express written approval. If Seller gives written approval to any assignment, Purchaser shall not be released from its obligations hereunder. Execution hereof by Purchaser alone shall constitute only an offer to purchase. Upon execution of this Agreement by an authorized representative of Seller, after the execution by Purchaser and delivery of a fully executed copy hereof to Purchaser as well as delivery of the Contract Deposit to the Title Company, this document shall, subject to approval per Section 3.3 above, become a binding Agreement.
10.
Time is of the Essence. The obligations and undertakings of the parties hereto shall be performed within the time specified, and failure to perform within such time shall constitute an event of default on the part of the party that fails to perform.
10.
NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES. EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTIES OF TITLE SET FORTH IN THE DEED AND THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN SECTION 5.3 ABOVE, SELLER HEREBY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY, GUARANTY OR REPRESENTATION, ORAL OR WRITTEN, PAST, PRESENT OR FUTURE, OF, AS TO, OR CONCERNING (A) THE NATURE AND CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY OWNED BY SELLER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE WATER, SOIL AND GEOLOGY, AND THE SUITABILITY THEREOF AND OF THE PROPERTY FOR ANY AND ALL ACTIVITIES AND USES WHICH PURCHASER MAY ELECT TO CONDUCT THEREON, AND THE EXISTENCE OF ANY ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS OR CONDITION THEREON (INCLUDING THE PRESENCE OF ASBESTOS) OR COMPLIANCE WITH ALL LAWS, RULES OR REGULATIONS; (B) APPLICABLE LAWS, RULES OR REGULATIONS; (C) THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF ANY RIGHT-OF-WAY, LEASE, POSSESSION, LIEN, ENCUMBRANCE, LICENSE, RESERVATION, CONDITION OR OTHERWISE; (D) THE COMPLIANCE OF THE PROPERTY OR ITS OPERATION WITH ANY LAWS, ORDINANCES OR REGULATIONS OF ANY GOVERNMENTAL OR OTHER BODY; (E) THE PROPERTY'S CONDITION, HABITABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY, TENANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND (F) THE PROPERTY'S FUTURE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS HAD AND WILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO INSPECT THE PROPERTY AND THAT IT WILL BE RELYING SOLELY ON ITS OWN INVESTIGATION OF THE PROPERTY AND NOT ON ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED OR TO BE PROVIDED BY SELLER EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTIES OF TITLE SET FORTH IN THE DEED AND THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN SECTION 5.3 OF THIS AGREEMENT. PURCHASER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ITS INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTY WILL BE OBTAINED FROM A VARIETY OF SOURCES, AND SELLER (X) HAVE NOT MADE, AND WILL NOT MAKE, ANY INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION OR VERIFICATION OF SUCH INFORMATION AND (Y) DO NOT MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS AS TO THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY SUCH INFORMATION EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 5.3 OF THIS AGREEMENT. PURCHASER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE PURCHASE PRICE FOR THE PROPERTY REFLECTS THE CURRENTLY EXISTING CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY.
10.
"AS IS" SALE. THE SALE OF THE PROPERTY AS PROVIDED FOR HEREIN IS MADE ON AN "AS IS," "WHERE IS" BASIS AND "WITH ALL FAULTS." PURCHASER AGREES THAT (A) SELLER SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO PURCHASER FOR ANY CONSTRUCTION DEFECTS, ERRORS, OMISSIONS, OR ON ACCOUNT OF ANY OTHER CONDITIONS AFFECTING THE PROPERTY; (B) PURCHASER OR ANYONE CLAIMING BY, THROUGH OR UNDER PURCHASER, HEREBY FULLY RELEASES SELLER, ITS EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, REPRESENTATIVES AND AGENTS FROM ANY COST, LOSS, LIABILITY, DAMAGE, EXPENSE, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO ANY CONSTRUCTION DEFECTS, ERRORS, OMISSIONS, OR OTHER CONDITIONS AFFECTING THE PROPERTY; (C) THE FOREGOING RELEASE SHALL BE GIVEN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT ACCORDING TO EACH OF ITS EXPRESSED TERMS AND PROVISIONS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE RELATING TO UNKNOWN AND SUSPECTED CLAIMS, DAMAGES AND CAUSES OF ACTION; (D) THIS COVENANT RELEASING SELLER SHALL BE A COVENANT RUNNING WITH THE LAND AND SHALL BE BINDING UPON PURCHASER, ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; (E) IN THE EVENT OF ANY SUCH CONSTRUCTION DEFECTS, ERRORS, OMISSIONS OR ON ACCOUNT OF ANY OTHER CONDITIONS AFFECTING THE PROPERTY, EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF A BREACH OF THE REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER IN SECTION 5.3, PURCHASER SHALL LOOK SOLELY TO SELLER'S PREDECESSORS IN TITLE OR TO SUCH CONTRACTS AND CONSULTANTS AS MAY HAVE CONTRACTED FOR WORK IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPERTY FOR ANY REDRESS OR RELIEF, WITHOUT RECOURSE TO OR REPRESENTATION FROM SELLER AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF ANY SUCH REDRESS OR RELIEF; AND (F) AS CONSIDERATION FOR THE ASSIGNMENT BY SELLER OF ITS CLAIMS (AS PROVIDED BELOW), PURCHASER RELEASES SELLER OF ALL RIGHTS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, PURCHASER MAY HAVE AGAINST SELLER ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM ANY ERRORS, OMISSIONS OR DEFECTS IN THE PROPERTY. SELLER HEREBY ASSIGNS WITHOUT RECOURSE OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY NATURE TO PURCHASER, EFFECTIVE UPON THE DATE HEREOF, ANY AND ALL CLAIMS THAT SELLER MAY HAVE FOR ANY ERRORS, OMISSIONS OR DEFECTS IN THE PROPERTY. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL CAUSES OF ACTION ACCRUING TO ANY PARTY SHALL BE BROUGHT NO LATER THAN THE EARLIER OF (I) THE APPLICABLE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS, OR (II) THE LATER OF THE FOLLOWING:
(A)
TWO YEARS AFTER THE CLOSING DATE; OR
(B)
THE DATE TWO YEARS FOLLOWING THE DATE ON WHICH THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUED;
ANY LONGER STATUE OF LIMITATIONS PERIOD FOR THE BRINGING OF SUCH ACTIONS BEING HEREBY WAIVED. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IN NO EVENT SHALL PURCHASER BE DEEMED TO HAVE WAIVED ANY RIGHTS OR CAUSES OF ACTION AGAINST SELLER FOR FRAUD SO LONG AS SUCH CLAIMS, IF ANY, ARE BROUGHT WITHIN THE TIME PERIOD SET FORTH HEREIN.
10.13
Operation of the Property After the Effective Date Until Closing. Seller shall continue to operate the portion of the Property in accordance with its normal and customary practice after the Effective Date hereof and prior to Closing, except that after the expiration of the Inspection Period, Seller shall not, without the prior written approval of Purchaser (except as provided below in this Section), enter into any (i) new Property Agreements which are not cancelable on thirty (30) days or less notice by Seller (and in all events as of the Closing Date), (ii) lease commission agreements providing for commissions or fees payable after Closing, or (iii) renewals, expansions, subleases, assignments, modifications or terminations of existing Leases or (iv) any new Lease transaction for the Property (referred to as "New Lease Transaction"). Purchaser shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its approval of any of the transactions described in subparagraph (i) – (iii). If Seller wishes after the expiration of the Inspection Period to enter into a New Lease Transaction or lease commission agreement, Seller shall provide Purchaser information outlining the terms thereof, and unless Purchaser rejects same by written notice to Seller within three (3) business days after Purchaser's receipt of such information on such New Lease Transaction and/or lease commission agreement then Seller may complete the proposed transaction provided, however, any such New Lease Transaction is on commercially reasonable terms for the Phoenix sub-market in which the respective portions of the Property are located Purchaser shall not be entitled to reject the New Lease Transaction and Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved same. If Purchaser rejects any such New Lease Transaction or lease commission agreement, then Seller may enter into the same and it shall be binding upon Purchaser at closing, but the prorations of related costs will be affected as set forth in Section 7.3(b).
10.14
No Merger. The covenants, agreements, provisions, warranties and representations contained in Articles II and IX, in Sections 5.1, 7.3, 8.1, 10.6, 10.11, 10.12, 10.17 and 10.18 of this Agreement shall not merge with the closing documents, but shall survive Closing.
10.15
Holidays, Etc. Whenever any time limit or date provided herein falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday under the laws of the State of Arizona or day on which national banks located in such State are authorized to be closed, then that date is extended to the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, legal holiday or day authorized for national banks to be closed.
10.16
Recovery of Litigation Costs. If any legal action is brought by the Seller or Purchaser for the enforcement of this Agreement or by reason of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement for damages or any other relief or remedy (declaratory or otherwise), the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees and other court and direct costs incurred in connection with such action or proceeding. This provision shall survive the Closing or termination of this Agreement.
10.17
Confidentiality. Purchaser covenants and agrees that the terms of this Agreement and all information concerning the Property (including, without limitation, all information obtained by Purchaser prior to the Closing) shall be kept in strictest confidence by Purchaser prior to the Closing; and thereafter, if the Closing fails to occur for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be construed so as to prohibit Purchaser from making (a) a disclosure to officers and employees of Purchaser and those agents, contractors, or vendors of Purchaser who need to know in order to assist Purchaser in its purchase of the Property, but such disclosure shall only be permitted to the extent Purchaser has complied with the confidentiality agreement already executed by Purchaser in connection with its review of the Property, (b) any disclosure required by law, or (c) any disclosure which is reasonably necessary to protect any such party's interest in any action, suit or proceeding brought by or against such party and relating to the Property or the subject matter of this Agreement. Neither party will advertise or announce the terms of this Agreement or the occurrence of the sale of the Property, except by mutual written consent; provided, that, Purchaser may issue a press release about the occurrence of the Sale of the Property after closing without the consent of Seller so long as such press release does not directly or indirectly disclose the identity of Seller.
10.18
Counterpart Facsimile Execution. For purposes of executing this Agreement, or related documents, a document and transmittal by facsimile machine or telecopier shall be treated as an original document. The signature of any party thereon shall be considered as an original signature and the document transmitted shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect if it were originally signed. At the request of either party, any facsimile or telecopy document shall be re-executed by both parties in original form. No party hereto may raise the use of a facsimile machine or telecopier or the fact that any signature was transmitted through the use of a facsimile or telecopier machine as a defense to the enforcement of this Agreement.
10.19
No Recordation. Neither this Agreement nor any memorandum or affidavit hereof is to be filed for record. In the event that Purchaser records this Agreement or any memorandum or affidavit thereof, Seller shall have the right at its option, to terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Contract Deposit shall be delivered to Seller as liquidated damages for Purchaser’s breach hereof.
10.20
Strict Compliance/Waiver. Any failure by either party to insist upon strict performance by the other party of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any of the provisions hereof, irrespective of the number of violations or breaches that may occur and each party, notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon strict performance by the other of any and all of the provisions of this Agreement.
1.1
Like Kind Exchange. Purchaser may consummate the sale of the Real Property or any particular parcel of the Real Property as part of a so-called like kind exchange (the “Exchange”) pursuant to § 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, provided that: (i) the Closing shall not be delayed or affected by reason of the Exchange nor shall the consummation or accomplishment of the Exchange be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to Purchaser’s obligations, under this Agreement; (ii) Seller shall not be required to acquire or hold title to any real property for purposes of consummating the Exchange; (iii) Seller shall not incur any liability or expense whatsoever with respect to the Exchange; and (iv) Purchaser hereby forever indemnifies, defends and holds harmless Seller from and against any loss, cost, liability, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees or court costs) incurred by the Seller in any manner related to the Exchange. Seller shall not, by this Agreement or acquiescence to the Exchange, (a) have its rights under this Agreement affected or diminished in any manner, or (b) be responsible for compliance with or be deemed to have warranted to Purchaser that the Exchange in fact complies with § 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
