Purchaser has the sole responsibility to fully inspect the Property, to investigate all matters relevant thereto, including, without limitation, the condition of the Property, and to reach its own, independent evaluation of any risks (environmental or otherwise) or rewards associated with the ownership, leasing, management and operation of the Property.
(b)To the fullest extent permitted by law, Purchaser does hereby unconditionally waive and release Seller, and its partners, beneficial owners, officers, directors, shareholders and employees from any present or future claims and liabilities of any nature arising from or relating to the presence or alleged presence of Hazardous Substances in, on, at, from, under or about the Property or any adjacent property, including, without limitation, any claims under or on account of any Environmental Law, regardless of whether such Hazardous Substances are located in, on, at, from, under or about the Property or any adjacent property prior to or after the date hereof. In addition, Purchaser does hereby covenant and agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Seller and its partners, beneficial owners, officers, directors, shareholders and employees from and against any claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs or expenses of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown, existing and future, including any action or proceeding brought or threatened, or ordered by
governmental authorities, relating to any Hazardous Substances which may be placed, located or released on the Property after the date of Closing. The terms and provisions of this paragraph shall survive the Closing hereunder.
3.4 Title and Survey. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, Seller ordered from the Title Company a preliminary owner's title commitment with respect to the Property issued in favor of Purchaser (the "Title Commitment").

Purchaser may arrange, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, for the preparation of one or more updates of the Existing Survey (each and together, the "Survey"). Purchaser shall have until the Business Day which is six (6) Business Days prior to the last day of the Inspection Period to give written notice (the "First Title Notice") to Seller of such objections as Purchaser may have to any exceptions to title disclosed in the Title Commitment or in any Survey or otherwise in Purchaser's examination of title. From time to time at any time after the First Title Notice and prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser may give written notice of exceptions to title first appearing of record after the effective date of any updated title commitment or matters of survey which would not have been disclosed by an accurate updated examination of title or preparation of an updated ALTA survey prior to date of the initial Title Commitment or the initial Survey. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as to Monetary Objections affecting the Property), to attempt to remove, satisfy or otherwise cure any exceptions to title to which the Purchaser so objects. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Purchaser's First Title Notice, Seller shall give written notice to Purchaser informing the Purchaser of Seller's election with respect to such objections. If Seller fails to give written notice of election within such five (5) Business Day period, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to attempt to cure the objections (other than Monetary Objections). If Seller elects to attempt to cure any objections, Seller shall be entitled to one or more reasonable adjournments of the Closing of up to but not beyond the thirtieth (30th) day following the initial date set for the Closing to attempt such cure, but, except for Monetary Objections, Seller shall not be obligated to expend any sums, commence any suits or take any other action to effect such cure. Except as to Monetary Objections affecting the Property, if Seller elects, or is deemed to have elected, not to cure any exceptions to title to which Purchaser has objected or if, after electing to attempt to cure, Seller determines that it is unwilling or unable to remove, satisfy or otherwise cure any such exceptions, Purchaser's sole remedy hereunder in such event shall be either (i) to accept title to the Property subject to such exceptions as if Purchaser had not objected thereto and without reduction of the Purchase Price, (ii) if such exceptions are matters first appearing of record after the date of this Agreement, and arise by, through or under Seller, to terminate this Agreement, or (iii) to terminate this Agreement within three (3) Business Days after receipt of written notice from Seller either of Seller's election not to attempt to cure any objection or of Seller's determination, having previously elected to attempt to cure, that Seller is unable or unwilling to do so, or three (3) Business Days after Seller is deemed hereunder to have elected not to attempt to cure such objections (and upon any such termination under clause (ii) or (iii) above, Escrow Agent shall return the Xxxxxxx Money to Purchaser). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, Seller shall be obligated to cure or satisfy all Monetary Objections affecting the Property at or prior to Closing, and Seller may use the proceeds of the Purchase Price at Closing for such purpose.
3.5 Operating Agreements. On or before ten (10) days prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser will designate in a written notice to Seller those Operating Agreements that are assignable by Seller which Purchaser will assume at Closing and which Operating Agreements will be terminated by Seller at Closing; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated to terminate, and Purchaser shall assume Seller's obligations arising from and after Closing under, all Operating Agreements which cannot be terminated by Seller upon no more than thirty (30) days prior notice or which can be terminated by Seller only upon payment of a fee, premium, penalty or other form of early termination compensation. Taking into account any credits or prorations to be made pursuant to Article 5 hereof for payments coming due after Closing but accruing prior to Closing, Purchaser will assume the obligations arising from and after the Closing Date under those Operating Agreements which Purchaser has designated will not be terminated. Seller, without cost to Purchaser, shall terminate at Closing all Operating Agreements that are not so assumed. If Purchaser fails to notify Seller in writing on or prior to the date which is ten (10) days prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period of any Operating Agreements that Purchaser does not desire to assume at Closing, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to assume all such Operating Agreements and to have waived its right to require Seller to terminate such Operating Agreements at Closing.
3.6 Termination of Agreement.

In addition, within ninety (90) days after the close of the fiscal year(s) used in calculating the pass-through to tenants of operating expenses and/or common area maintenance costs under the Leases (where such fiscal year(s) include(s) the Closing Date), Seller and Purchaser shall, upon the request of either, re-prorate on a fair and equitable basis in order to adjust for the effect of any credits or payments due
to or from tenants for periods prior to the Closing Date. All prorations shall be made based on the number of calendar days in such year or month, as the case may be. The provisions of this Section 5.4(g) shall survive the Closing.

The delivery of said Tenant Estoppel Certificates shall be a condition of Purchaser’s obligation to Close, but the failure or inability of Seller to obtain and deliver said Tenant Estoppel Certificates from the Tenants, Seller having used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the same from such tenant(s) under the Leases, shall not constitute a default by Seller under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Seller has been unable to obtain and deliver to Purchaser by Closing the Tenant Estoppel Certificates meeting the requirements set forth above, then, at the option of Purchaser, this condition to Closing may be satisfied by Seller’s execution and delivery to Purchaser at Closing, on behalf of any one or more tenants which have failed to provide the required Tenant Estoppel Certificate an estoppel certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Schedule 11 (“Seller’s Estoppel”) (provided that Seller’s Estoppels cannot be delivered with respect to tenants occupying more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate net rentable square footage of all of the Improvements); and provided that Seller’s liability under any such Seller’s Estoppel so executed and delivered by Seller to Purchaser at Closing shall cease and terminate upon the receipt by Purchaser after Closing of a duly executed Tenant Estoppel Certificate from the tenant under the applicable Lease covered in such Seller’s Estoppel.
In the event any of the conditions in this Section 6.1 have not been satisfied (or otherwise waived in writing by Purchaser) prior to or on the Closing Date (as same may be extended or postponed as provided in this Agreement), Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller on or before Closing Date (as same may be extended or postponed as provided in this Agreement) and, receive back the Xxxxxxx Money and to receive a reimbursement from Seller for its actual, out of pocket third party costs and expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with this Agreement and its inspections of the Property in an amount not to exceed Thirty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($30,000.00) or to waive the requirement for any further Tenant Estoppel Certificates. In the event Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.1 no party hereto shall have any other or further rights or obligations under this Agreement except for those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement.
6.2 Conditions Precedent to Seller's Obligations. The obligations of Seller hereunder to consummate the transaction contemplated hereunder shall in all respects be conditioned upon the satisfaction of each of the following conditions prior to or simultaneously with the Closing, any of which may be waived by Seller in its sole discretion by written notice to Purchaser at or prior to the Closing Date:
(a.)Purchaser shall have paid and Seller shall have received the Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, which Purchase Price shall be payable in the amount and in the manner provided for in this Agreement;
(b.)Purchaser shall have performed, in all material respects, all covenants, agreements and undertakings of Purchaser contained in this Agreement; and
(c.)All representations and warranties of Purchaser as set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Agreement and as of Closing, provided that solely for purposes of this subparagraph such warranties and representations shall be deemed to be given without being limited to Purchaser's knowledge and without modification (by update or otherwise, as provided in Section 5.2(d) hereof).
ARTICLE 7.
CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION
7.1 Casualty. Risk of loss up to and including the Closing Date shall be borne by Seller. In the event of any immaterial damage or destruction to the Property or any portion thereof, Seller and Purchaser shall proceed to close under this Agreement, and Purchaser will receive (and Seller will assign to Purchaser at the Closing Seller's rights under insurance policies to receive) any insurance proceeds (including any rent loss insurance applicable to any period on and after the Closing Date) due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction and assume responsibility for such repair, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible, uninsured or coinsured amount under said insurance policies. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "immaterial damage or destruction" shall mean such instances of damage or destruction: (i) which can be repaired or restored at a cost of $500,000.00 or less; and (ii) which can be restored and repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of such damage or destruction, and (iii) which are not so extensive as to allow a Tenant to terminate its Lease on account of such damage or destruction.
In the event of any material damage or destruction to the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by notice to Seller given within the earlier of twenty (20) days after Purchaser is notified by Seller of such damage or destruction, or the Closing Date, but in no event less than ten (10) days after Purchaser is notified by Seller of such damage or destruction (and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give Purchaser the full 10-day period to make such election): (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Xxxxxxx Money to Purchaser, or (ii) proceed to close under this Agreement, receive (and Seller will assign to Purchaser at the Closing Seller's rights under insurance policies to receive) any insurance proceeds (including any rent loss insurance applicable to the period on or after the Closing Date) due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction (less any amounts reasonably expended for restoration or collection of proceeds) and assume responsibility for such repair, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible amount under said insurance policies. If Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller notice of its election within the period set forth above, Purchaser will conclusively be deemed to have elected to proceed with the Closing as provided in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. If Purchaser elects clause (ii) above, Seller will cooperate with Purchaser after the Closing to assist Purchaser in obtaining the insurance proceeds from Seller's insurers. For purposes of this Agreement "material damage or destruction" shall mean all instances of damage or destruction that are not immaterial, as defined herein.
7.2 Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of the Property is subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation by a body having the power of eminent domain or is taken by eminent domain or condemnation (or sale in lieu thereof), or if Seller has received written notice that any condemnation action or proceeding with respect to the Property is contemplated by a body having the power of eminent domain (collectively, a "Taking"), Seller shall give Purchaser immediate written notice of such Taking. In the event of any immaterial Taking with respect to the Property or any portion thereof, Seller and Purchaser shall proceed to close under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "immaterial Taking" means such instances of Taking of the Property: (i) which do not result in a taking of any portion of the building structure of the building occupied by tenants on the Property; and (ii) which do not result in a decrease in the number of parking spaces at the Property (taking into account the number of additional parking spaces that can be provided within one hundred eighty (180) days of such Taking); and (iii) which are not so extensive as to allow a Tenant under a Lease to terminate its Lease or xxxxx or reduce rent payable there under unless business loss or rent insurance (subject to applicable deductibles) or condemnation award proceeds shall be available in the full amount of such abatement or reduction, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for such deductible amount on account of such Taking.
In the event of any material Taking of the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by written notice to Seller given within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice from Seller, elect to terminate this Agreement, or Purchaser may choose to proceed to close. If Purchaser chooses to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 7.2, then the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned immediately to Purchaser by Escrow Agent and the rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities of the parties hereunder shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect, except for those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement "material Taking " means all instances of a Taking that are not immaterial, as defined herein.
If Purchaser does not elect to, or has no right to, terminate this Agreement in accordance herewith on account of a Taking, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the sale of the Property contemplated by this Agreement, less any interest taken by eminent domain or condemnation, or sale in lieu thereof, shall be effected with no further adjustment and without reduction of the Purchase Price, and at the Closing, Seller shall assign, transfer, and set over to Purchaser all of the right, title, and interest of Seller in and to any awards applicable to the Property that have been or that may thereafter be made for such Taking. At such time as all or a part of the Property is subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation and Purchaser has not elected to terminate
this Agreement as provided in this Section 7.2, and provided that the Inspection Period has expired, (i) Purchaser shall thereafter be permitted to participate in the proceedings as if Purchaser were a party to the action, and (ii) Seller shall not settle or agree to any award or payment pursuant to condemnation, eminent domain, or sale in lieu thereof without obtaining Purchaser's prior written consent thereto in each case.
ARTICLE 8
DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
8.1 Purchaser's Default. If Purchaser fails to consummate this transaction for any reason other than the default of Seller, failure of a condition to Purchaser's obligation to close, or the exercise by Purchaser of an express right of termination granted herein, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole remedy hereunder, to terminate this Agreement and to receive and retain the Xxxxxxx Money as full liquidated damages for such default of Purchaser, the parties hereto acknowledging that it is impossible to estimate more precisely the damages which might be suffered by Seller upon Purchaser's default, and that said Xxxxxxx Money is a reasonable estimate of Seller's probable loss in the event of default by Purchaser. Seller's retention of said Xxxxxxx Money is intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages. The right to retain the Xxxxxxx Money as full liquidated damages is Seller's sole and exclusive remedy in the event of default hereunder by Purchaser, and Seller hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) xxx the Purchaser: (a) for specific performance of this Agreement, or (b) to recover actual damages in excess of the Xxxxxxx Money. Purchaser hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) xxx Seller or seek or claim a refund of said Xxxxxxx Money (or any part thereof) on the grounds it is unreasonable in amount and exceeds Seller's actual damages or that its retention by Seller constitutes a penalty and not agreed upon and reasonable liquidated damages.
8.2 Seller's Default. If Seller fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement for any reason other than Purchaser's default or the permitted termination of this Agreement by Seller or Purchaser as expressly provided herein, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, either (a) to receive the return of the Xxxxxxx Money from Escrow Agent, which return shall operate to terminate this Agreement and release Seller from any and all liability hereunder, or (b) to enforce specific performance of the obligation of Seller to execute and deliver the documents required to convey the Property to Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement; it being specifically understood and agreed that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if after the Effective Date, Seller has conveyed title to the Property to another party or intentionally and knowingly taken any other action to defeat the remedy of specific performance, Purchaser shall be entitled to seek actual damages from Seller not to exceed the Cap Limitation. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Section 8.2, Purchaser expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event of the default of Seller hereunder. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and to receive a return of the Xxxxxxx Money from Escrow Agent if Purchaser fails to file suit for specific performance against Seller in a court having jurisdiction on or before sixty (60) days following the date upon which the Closing was to have occurred.
ARTICLE 9
ASSIGNMENT
9.1 Assignment. Subject to the next following sentence, this Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable by any party without the written consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, this Agreement and Purchaser's rights hereunder may be transferred and assigned to any entity controlled by Purchaser or under common control with Purchaser. Any assignee or transferee under any such assignment or transfer by Purchaser as to which Seller's written consent has been given or as to which Seller's consent is not required hereunder shall expressly assume all of Purchaser's duties, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement by written instrument delivered to Seller as a condition to the effectiveness of such assignment or transfer. No assignment or transfer shall relieve the original Purchaser of any duties or obligations hereunder, and the written assignment and assumption instrument shall expressly so provide. For purposes of this Section 9.1, the term "control" shall mean the ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) of the applicable entity. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to create any rights in or to be enforceable in any part by any other persons.
ARTICLE 10
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS
10.1 Broker. Upon the Closing, and only in the event the Closing occurs, Seller shall pay a brokerage commission to CBRE, Inc. ("Broker") pursuant to a separate agreement between Seller and Broker. In addition, upon the Closing, and only in the event the Closing occurs, Seller shall pay a brokerage commission to Xxxxx Realty Network (“Purchaser’s Broker”) a brokerage commission in the amount of 1.75% of the Purchase Price. Broker is representing Seller in
this transaction and Purchaser’s Broker is representing Purchaser. Neither Broker nor Purchaser’s Broker shall be entitled to a real estate commission and no such commission shall be earned or due either of them if the transaction contemplated herein does not close for any reason whatsoever. Seller shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage, and expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred and costs of litigation, Purchaser shall ever suffer or incur because of any claim by any agent, salesman, or broker, whether or not meritorious, for any fee, commission or other compensation with regard to this Agreement or the sale and purchase of the Property contemplated hereby, and arising out of any acts or agreements of Seller, including any claim asserted by Broker. Likewise, Purchaser shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Seller free and harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage, and expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred and costs of litigation, Seller shall ever suffer or incur because of any claim by any agent, salesman, or broker, whether or not meritorious, for any fee, commission or other compensation with respect to this Agreement or the sale and purchase of the Property contemplated hereby and arising out of the acts or agreements of Purchaser. This Section 10.1 shall survive the Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement.

If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall, for any reason and to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby but rather shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.
11.7 Construction. This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the fact that this Agreement may have been prepared by counsel for one of the parties, it being mutually acknowledged and agreed that Seller and Purchaser and their respective counsel have contributed substantially and materially to the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. Accordingly, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
11.8 Sale Notification Letters. Promptly following the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver the Tenant Notices of Sale to each of the respective tenants under the Leases and the Other Notices of Sale to each service provider and leasing agent, the obligations under whose respective Operating Agreements and Commission Agreements Purchaser has assumed at Closing.

11.9 Access to Records Following Closing.

The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing.
11.10 General Provisions. No failure of either party to exercise any power given hereunder or to insist upon strict compliance with any obligation specified herein, and no custom or practice at variance with the terms hereof, shall constitute a waiver of either party's right to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties hereto, and no representations, inducements, promises, or agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties not embodied herein shall be of any force or effect. Any amendment to this Agreement shall not be binding upon Seller or Purchaser unless such amendment is in writing and executed by both Seller and Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.1 hereof, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and permitted assigns.

11.11 Attorney's Fees.

11.13 Tax-Deferred Exchange. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to reasonably cooperate with each other and shall execute any and all documents necessary, in the form reasonably approved by the both parties, which shall assign all of such party's right, title and interest in and to this Agreement to an intermediary, which intermediary shall complete the sale/purchase of the Property, in order to accommodate a tax-deferred exchange for such party pursuant to the provisions of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); provided, however, that in no event shall (i) either party hereto be required to incur any additional costs, expenses, obligations or other liabilities in connection with assisting the other party with a tax-deferred exchange (other than any costs and expenses resulting from the review of exchange documents), (ii) such exchange delay or be a condition to the Closing, (iii) either party hereto be required to take title to any real property other than the Property, or (iv) any assignment in connection with any such exchange release either party from any liability or obligation or performance by either party hereunder. Neither party makes any representation to the other regarding qualification of an exchange undertaken by the other under Section 1031 of the Code and shall not be liable to the other in any manner whatsoever if the exchange completed in accordance with this Section 11.13 should not qualify for any reason under Section 1031 of the Code. The party requesting cooperation in connection with the tax-deferred exchange shall reimburse the other party for any costs or expenses incurred by such party in connection with such cooperation. Upon Purchaser’s request, Seller agrees to return the Xxxxxxx Money to Purchaser at Closing, provided that Purchaser simultaneously causes its intermediary to replace such funds with funds which such intermediary is holding for the benefit of Purchaser.
ARTICLE 12

Losses suffered or incurred as a result of breaches of any covenant or agreement of Seller set forth in Section 5.3, Section 5.4 or Section 10.1 of this Agreement.
12.4 Survival. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement and the Closing Documents shall survive until the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing, unless a longer or shorter survival period is expressly provided for in this Agreement, or unless prior to the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing, Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, delivers written notice to the other party of such alleged breach specifying with reasonable detail the nature of such alleged breach and files an action with respect thereto within sixty (60) days after the giving of such notice.
12.5 Indemnification as Sole Remedy. If the Closing has occurred, the sole and exclusive remedy available to a party in the event of a breach by the other party to this Agreement of any representation, warranty, or covenant or other provision of this Agreement or any Closing Document which survives the Closing shall be the indemnifications provided for under Section 3.1(c), Section 3.3(b), Section 10.1, and this Article 12.
