The Property does not include and Seller expressly retains its right to receive reimbursement from a private utility company, a utility district or other governmental entity of costs incurred by Seller in constructing and installing infrastructure improvements for the Lots.

2. PURCHASE PRICE. The “Purchase Price” (herein so called) shall be:

a) [***].

b) [***].

The Purchase Price will be adjusted accordingly, if the total number of Lots on the Final Plat (as hereinafter defined) of a Section increases or decreases prior to the applicable Closing. The Purchase Price shall be payable at the applicable Closing in good, immediately available U.S. funds.

For the Purchase Price of the Section 2 Lots after Buyer’s initial closing of the Section 2 Lots, in addition to the price per Lot set forth above, Buyer shall pay Seller a [***] lot escalation with such escalation commencing to accrue on Buyer’s first closing date for the Section 2 Lots at the Closing of the applicable Lots; provided, however, such escalation shall in no event accrue for more than one calendar year, and shall xxxxx for any delay of the subsequent closings for Section 2 Lots caused by Seller after Xxxxx’s initial closing of the Section 2 Lots.

The term “Xxxxxxx Money” as used herein means the Initial Xxxxxxx Money and the Additional Xxxxxxx Money, if applicable. Until the date that a Party is entitled to receive the Xxxxxxx Money pursuant to the terms hereof, the Title Company will hold the Xxxxxxx Money in a federally insured interest-bearing account and the Xxxxxxx Money shall include all interest earned thereon.

3.2 Application of Xxxxxxx Money. At each Closing, a portion of the Xxxxxxx Money equal to [***] of the Purchase Price of the Lots being purchased (exclusive of escalation), shall be applied as a credit against the Purchase Price of each Lot then being purchased.

6. TITLE AND SURVEY.

6.1 Title Commitment and Title Policy. Within five (5) business days after the Effective Date, Seller shall, at Seller’s expense, deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer: (i) a title commitment showing the status of record title to the Property and naming Buyer as the proposed insured, in the amount of the Purchase Price (the “Original Title Commitment”); (ii) true, correct, and legible copies of any and all instruments referred to in Schedule B of the Original Title Commitment (collectively, the “Title Instruments”); and (iii) a copy of the most recent survey of the Property or of a larger tract of land that contains the Property (the “Existing Survey”) (the Original Title Commitment, Title Instruments and Existing Survey, collectively, the “Title Documents”). Not later than five (5) days prior to the applicable Closing, Seller shall cause the Original Title Commitment to be updated for the portion of the Property being purchased (the “Closing Commitment”) and delivered to Buyer. Seller shall cause the Title Company to irrevocably commit to issue to Buyer at the applicable Closing an owner’s title insurance policy on the standard Texas form substantially in the form of the Closing Commitment but with all pre-printed, standard exceptions deleted that can be deleted under Texas title insurance regulations (including, without limitation, any parties in possession or tenants in possession exceptions), other than the exception for real property taxes for the year of Closing, a lien not yet due or payable, and subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (as defined below), insuring Buyer’s title to the applicable portion of the Property in the amount of the Purchase Price (the “Owner’s Title Policy”). Seller shall pay the base premium for the Owner’s Title Policy, and Buyer shall pay the costs for any Buyer-requested endorsements, or request to modify the area and boundary exception listed as item 2 of Schedule B of the Title Commitment to read ‘shortages in area’.

6.2 Title Review and Objections. Buyer shall have until the date which is seven (7) days before the expiration of the Inspection Period to review the Title Documents and to deliver written notice to Seller (“Notice of Defect”) of each matter set forth therein which is objectionable to Buyer (each, a “Defect”). Any such Defect to which Buyer does not timely object hereunder shall be deemed a “Permitted Exception” hereunder, provided, however, that in no event shall any of the following be deemed to be a Permitted Exception under this Agreement (whether or not Buyer expressly objects to the same in a timely-delivered Notice of Defect): (i) any deeds of trust, mortgages, and any other monetary liens encumbering the Property arising by, through or under Seller or its predecessors-in-title, and any mechanic’s liens not caused by the actions of Buyer, all of which Xxxxxx agrees to satisfy and discharge at or before the applicable Closing, or (iii) any other exceptions to title arising from and after the delivery of the Title Documents, not caused by or expressly approved by Xxxxx in writing. If, however, a Defect not revealed in the Title Documents is shown in a subsequent update or endorsement to the Original Title Commitment, including, without limitation, the Closing Commitment, Buyer shall have until seven (7) business days after Buyer’s receipt of such update or endorsement to provide Seller with a Notice of Defect with respect thereto; and, if necessary, the applicable Closing Date shall be extended to give effect to all applicable time periods set forth in this section. If a Notice of Defect is timely given, Seller may, within five (5) days of its receipt thereof, notify Buyer in writing of those Defects, if any, contained in Buyer’s Notice of Defect which Seller agrees to cure (“Seller’s Response”). If Seller fails to timely provide Seller’s Response, Seller shall be deemed to have declined to cure any such Defects. If Seller does not agree to cure all such Defects contained in Buyer’s Notice of Defect, Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice delivered to Seller (1) by the expiration of the Inspection Period for any Defects contained in the Original Title Commitment (but not for any Defect not revealed in the Title Documents that is shown in a subsequent update or endorsement to the Original Title Commitment, including without limitation, the Closing Commitment), and (2) for any Defect not revealed in the Title Documents that is shown in a subsequent update or endorsement to the Original Title Commitment or updated survey, including without limitation, the Closing Commitment, the later of: (A) the date that is five (5) business days after receipt of Seller’s Response or deemed response; and (B) if Seller fails to deliver Seller’s Response, then within five (5) business days after the date on which Seller’s Response was due under this section. Upon such termination, the Xxxxxxx Money (or uncredited portion) shall be immediately returned to Buyer and, thereafter, the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those that expressly survive termination. If Buyer does not give such notice of termination, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived those Defects noted in its Notice of Defect for which Seller has not agreed to cure and proceed to close as provided in this Agreement (in which event such Defects shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions). If Seller, however, in a Seller’s Response, agrees to cure a Defect but then fails to cure the same by the applicable Closing or is otherwise unable to convey title to the Property to Buyer at such Closing in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, then Seller shall be in default hereof and Buyer may, at its option either (a) waive such Defect(s) in writing and proceed to close as provided in this Agreement (in which event such Defect(s) shall be deemed to be Permitted Exception(s)), or (b) exercise its rights under Section 16. So long as this Agreement remains in full force and effect, Seller shall not cause or permit any additional exceptions to title to be recorded against the Property from and after the Effective Date without Buyer’s prior written approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be entitled to encumber the Property with easements within setback areas created in connection with the development of the Lots as depicted on the Plat approved by Buyer pursuant to Section 9 below that do not adversely impact the building pad on a Lot (and such easements shall be Permitted Exceptions), and purchase and/or construction loans without Buyer’s consent, provided that liens securing loans to Seller are removed at Closing.

6.3 Title Conveyed. Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that, at as of the Effective Date and the applicable Closing, Seller has and will have good and indefeasible fee simple title to the Property. At the applicable Closing, title to the Property being purchased shall be conveyed by Seller to Buyer by special warranty deed on the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Deed”), free and clear of all exceptions, liens, encumbrances, easements and restrictions except the Permitted Exceptions. Seller further represents and warrants to Buyer that prior to or concurrent with the applicable Closing, that Seller shall satisfy all requirements of the Title Company applicable to Seller as set forth in the Original Title Commitment and the Closing Commitment. Title to any personal property or fixtures shall be conveyed by a general assignment and bill of sale in substantially the same form attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Assignment”).

6.4 New Instruments. Seller shall not record or consent to the recording of new instruments affecting the Property which are not Permitted Exceptions, including the recording of restrictive covenants (other than documents required to annex the Lots into the jurisdiction of the HOA), without Xxxxx’s prior written consent.

7. HOA DOCUMENTS AND APPROVAL OF HOME PLANS.

7.1. HOA Declaration. During the Inspection Period, Buyer will review the HOA Documents, including, without limitation, the declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions (the “Declaration”), bylaws and articles of incorporation for the HOA, and the budget for the HOA, and advise Seller of any objections to the HOA Documents during the Inspection Period. If not already annexed, the Lots shall be annexed and made subject to the Declaration prior to the applicable Closing and the same shall be a condition to closing for Buyer. Buyer shall have no liability whatsoever for or to the HOA except payment of the regular assessments applicable to the Lots owned by Buyer as set forth in the Declaration. The Declaration shall provide access for the owners purchasing homes from Buyer to all recreational and amenity facilities, if any, serving any portion of the Subdivision on the same basis and at the same cost, if any, to which all other users thereof are subject. If Buyer objects to any of the HOA Documents during the Inspection Period and Buyer and Seller are unable to agree upon an amendment to the Declaration or any other HOA Document, as applicable, prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, then Buyer’s sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 5 and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Buyer. As long as this Agreement is in force (and thereafter if Buyer purchases Lots pursuant to this Agreement), Seller shall not materially modify the HOA Documents without Buyer’s prior written approval. Buyer and Seller shall make reasonable efforts to cooperate in making any amendments to the HOA Documents that otherwise become necessary in connection with the development of the Property. This paragraph shall survive closing.

7.2 HOA Common Areas. At or prior to the Initial Closing or at such other times as mutually agreed by Xxxxx and Seller and/or required by the applicable Governmental Authorities, the areas depicted on the Final Plat and/or set forth in the Declaration as an area to be owned and maintained by the Association as common area (the “Common Areas”) will be conveyed to the Association.

7.3 Approval of Home Plans. Within fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, Buyer shall deliver to Seller Buyer’s home architectural plans for review and approval by the proper architectural review body under the Declaration. Within fifteen (15) days after Seller’s receipt of the plans, Seller shall notify Buyer whether such plans have been approved or advise Buyer with reasonable specificity of any objections and proposed revisions to the plans that would cause such plans to be approved. The plans to be submitted by Xxxxx will be a master set of plans covering the different homes that Buyer intends to construct on the Lots and that, upon approval of those plans in accordance with this section, Buyer shall not be required to resubmit a particular approved plan prior to the time that a home substantially conforming to such plan is to be constructed. If Seller fails to notify Buyer within such fifteen (15) day period or if the plans are not approved, Buyer shall have the right to either proceed with the purchase of the Lots as set forth herein, or to terminate this Agreement at any time before approval of such rejected plans, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be immediately returned to Buyer, and neither Party shall thereafter have any further obligations to the other hereunder. Seller shall use its good faith, diligent efforts to cooperate in all respects with Xxxxx, in Xxxxx’s efforts to obtain prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period the approval of the plans by any person, entity or Governmental Authority whose approval, other than Seller, is required.

8. BUYER’S OPERATIONS.

8.1 Signage. After the Completion Date of the applicable Section for Section 2 Lots or Section 3 Lots, Seller grants to Buyer the right, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, to place and maintain 1 or more sign(s) to advertise homes to be constructed on the applicable Lots by Century Homes (the “Sign(s)”) on any Lot(s) that has not yet been purchased by Buyer; provided that the Sign(s) complies with the Declaration and all standards and specifications of the applicable Governmental Authorities.

Buyer shall obtain any necessary permits and comply with all applicable laws of the applicable Governmental Authorities governing the use of the Construction Trailer, Sales Trailer and/or parking lot. Buyer shall not allow any lien or encumbrance relating to Buyer’s use or improvement to attach to any property which Xxxxx has not purchased. Xxxxx agrees to hold Seller harmless from and indemnify Seller against any and all claims, damages and liability occasioned by or resulting from Xxxxx’s use of or activities on any such Lot. If this Agreement is terminated, Buyer, at Buyer’s expense, shall remove the improvements installed by Buyer within ninety (90) days after such termination in such a manner and to such extent that the applicable property shall be returned to substantially the same condition as existed prior to improvement by Buyer. At Seller’s request the parties shall enter into a separate license agreement on a reasonable form mutually agreeable to the parties for Buyer’s placement of a Contraction Trailer or Sales Trailer on Seller’s property.

Within five (5) business days after receipt of Seller’s Completion Notice and the Completion Documents for the Section 3 Lots and Section 2 Lots respectively, which may not occur at the same time, Buyer shall review same, inspect the Lots and Section, and conduct such other investigations as it deems appropriate to confirm that all Development Work for such applicable Section has been completed as provided in this Agreement (except the Post Completion Work). If Buyer confirms that Seller has delivered the Completion Documents and the Development Work is complete for such applicable Section (except the Post Completion Work), or if Buyer fails to deliver written notice to Seller of any deficiencies in the Development Work for such Section during such five (5) business day period, the Development Work for such Section shall be deemed to have been completed and the “Completion Date” for such Section shall be deemed to have occurred on the expiration date of Buyer’s five (5) business day inspection period for such Section. If Seller has not delivered all of the Completion Documents or Buyer’s inspection reveals that the Development Work (except the Post Completion Work) is not complete as provided in this Agreement, then, within such five (5) business day period, Buyer shall deliver written notice to Seller stating with reasonable specificity the nature of the deficiencies. Seller shall then promptly correct, at its sole cost and expense, such deficiencies, and the notification and inspection procedures set forth above shall be repeated until Seller has delivered each of the Completion Documents and the Development Work (except the Post Completion Work) is complete for such Section. If Xxxxx delivers written notice to Seller stating that Seller has not delivered all of the Completion Documents or that the Development Work (except the Post Completion Work) is not complete as provided in this Agreement, then the “Completion Date” shall be deemed to have occurred on the date that Buyer and Seller have reasonably agreed that Seller has corrected or fulfilled all deficiencies. At Buyer’s option, the inspection and Completion Date procedures set forth in this Section 10.3 shall also apply to each applicable takedown of Lots under this Agreement. Buyer shall also have the right to re-inspect the applicable Lots for each takedown before each Closing (even if inspected previously) and Seller shall cure any then-existing deficiencies and, at Buyer’s option, the applicable Closing Date shall reasonably be extended as reasonably necessary for such purposes.

If a dispute arises between Seller and Xxxxx relating to any deficiencies in the Development Work, then Xxxxx’s project engineer and Xxxxxx’s project engineer shall, within ten (10) days of such dispute, select a disinterested third party civil engineer to inspect the deficiencies. The determination made by the third-party civil engineer shall be binding upon both Parties. Development Work determined to be deficient and not in conformance with this Agreement by the third-party civil engineer shall be corrected by Seller within twenty (20) days, if reasonably practicable to do so, of receipt of the third-party engineer’s report. The third-party civil engineer shall then certify that any deficiency has been corrected and is in conformance with this Agreement. The costs of the third-party engineer shall be shared equally by both Parties.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary and notwithstanding the fact that inspections and investigations could have been or were performed by or on behalf of Buyer or that the Completion Date was agreed to or deemed to have occurred, Buyer will rely on Seller’s and Seller’s engineer’s agreements and certifications and the documentation provided by Seller to establish the completion of and compliance with the Development Work, and Buyer shall not be required to independently verify same or detect latent or inherent conditions or defects in the Lots or the Sections or the development of either. Accordingly, Seller will not be relieved from its obligations to complete the Development Work, and, whether a failure to do so is detected before or after a Closing, Seller will be required to remedy any such failure.

10.4 Force Majeure. If Seller shall be delayed in the completion of the Development Work as a result of strikes, lock-outs, shortages of labor, fuel or materials, acts of God, fire or other casualty, or other cause reasonably beyond the control of Seller, the period for completion of the Development Work shall be extended by the number of days equivalent to the number of days of such delay, provided Seller gives Buyer written notice of such delay within ten (10) business days after the event causing the delay.

10.5 Failure to Timely Complete Development Work. If Seller has not completed the Development Work in accordance with the Development Schedule then Buyer shall have the rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement.

10.6 Defective Development Work. If at any time (before or after Closing) Buyer reasonably determines that any portion of the Development Work has not been completed properly in accordance with this Agreement or if Seller fails to complete any work to any portion of the Subdivision that results in Buyer being unable to obtain a certificate of occupancy for, or consummate a closing of, any dwelling Buyer constructs on a Lot as determined by any Governmental Authority (“Defective Work”), Buyer may notify Seller in writing of such Defective Work. Seller shall then correct such Defective Work within ten (10) days after Buyer’s notice (or if the Defective Work is of a nature that it reasonably requires more than ten (10) days to cure, then such longer period of time as may be reasonably required up to 90 days provided Seller commences to cure such Defective Work within ten (10) days after Buyer’s notice thereof and continues its cure with diligence until completion). If Seller fails to correct the Defective Work within such cure period, then Buyer may elect to correct any Defective Work. Seller shall reimburse Buyer for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Buyer to cure such Defective Work within thirty (30) days after receiving Buyer’s invoice therefor and documentation of costs incurred. Any such reimbursement due Buyer and not paid by Seller within such thirty (30) day period shall accrue interest at the rate of [***] (not to exceed the maximum rate permitted by law) from the expiration of such thirty (30) day period until paid. In addition to Xxxxx’s rights and remedies set forth in Section 16, Xxxxx shall have the right to apply the amount of any such outstanding reimbursement, plus accrued interest, as a credit against the Purchase Price of the next and subsequent Lots to be purchased hereunder.

10.7 Damage to Development Work. Xxxxx agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all damage to Seller’s Development Work caused by Xxxxx, or Buyer’s agents, employees, contractors, invitees, or other representatives. Xxxxxx agrees to indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from and against any and all damage to streets, roads, curbs, gutters, street lights and other improvements or infrastructure relating to the Lots purchased and acquired by Buyer, caused by Seller or Seller’s agents, employees, contractors, invitees, or other representatives. Each Party shall provide the other with written notice which states with specificity the nature of the damage. The responsible Party will either correct the damage within ten (10) business days or reimburse the other Party for the expenses incurred by the other Party to correct such damage within ten (10) business days after receipt of documentation evidencing such expenses.

10.8 Storm Water and Erosion Control Requirements. With respect to the Sections and the Property, Seller shall comply with all Governmental Requirements relating to storm water and erosion control (“Storm Water Rules”), Seller’s plans for controlling storm water or erosion (“Storm Water Plans”), and all permits and authorizations required by the Storm Water Rules (“Storm Water Permits”). As soon as same are available, but in any event at least thirty (30) days prior to the Initial Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer Seller’s Storm Water Plans, Storm Water Permits, any notice received by Seller alleging a violation of the Storm Water Rules, and Seller’s storm water inspection records for the most recent thirty (30) day period. If requested by Xxxxx, Seller shall again provide this information prior to each Closing. Prior to each Closing of a Lot, Seller shall ensure that perimeter storm water and erosion control measures (BMPs) are installed on the Lot and in good condition (and the Lots have been “stabilized” as required by the Storm Water Rules) so as to protect the Lot from discharging sediment onto neighboring land and streets. Buyer shall prepare its own Storm Water Plans and, from and after each Closing of a Lot hereunder, shall obtain its own Storm Water Permits for such Lot and comply with its Storm Water Permits, its Storm Water Plans and all Storm Water Rules with respect to such Lot. Alternatively, Buyer may choose to become a co-permittee or secondary permittee on Seller’s Storm Water Permits for a purchased Lot, in which case, from and after each Closing of a Lot hereunder, Buyer shall comply with Seller’s Storm Water Plans and Storm Water Permits with respect to such Lot. Prior to and following each Closing, Seller shall maintain all Subdivision streets free from sediment and prevent sediment-laden runoff from adjacent land (excluding any sediment or sediment-laden runoff caused by the operations of Buyer or its contractors) from entering Lots purchased by Buyer.

10.10. Post Completion Work. Following the initial Closing of Lots in a Section, Seller shall complete the Development Work listed on Exhibit B-3 (“Post Completion Work”) for all the Lots in the applicable Section within the time period designated for each item.

This Section 10 shall survive Closing.

If any of the Buyer’s Conditions Precedent have not been satisfied by the date to which the Outside Completion Date is extended, then Buyer may exercise the rights set forth in clauses (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence.

14.5. Marketing. During the pendency of the transactions contemplated hereunder, Seller shall not engage in an active marketing for the sale of the Property to any person other than Buyer.

If Seller breaches any of the provisions above, Buyer shall have all rights set forth in Section 16. In addition, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Buyer harmless for, from and against any and all claims, liability, loss, damage, cost and expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees, that may be incurred by or asserted against Buyer as a result of any (i) breach by Seller of this section, and/or (ii) any mechanic’s liens not appearing on the Original Title Commitment or the Closing Commitment that relate back to work performed on or with respect to the Property prior to the applicable Closing not caused by the actions of Buyer or those claiming by, through, or under Buyer, provided, however, that in the event a mechanic’s lien is so filed from and after the applicable Closing and Seller fails to cause it to be released or discharged by bonding before the earlier of foreclosure or within sixty (60) days after notice from Buyer, Buyer shall have the option of discharging or bonding any such lien, charge, order or encumbrance, and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for all costs, expenses and other sums of money in connection therewith with interest at the rate of [***] thereon promptly upon demand. The indemnification contained in this Section shall survive the Closings or termination of this Agreement.

14.6 Change in Condition. The obligations of Buyer under this Agreement are expressly contingent upon there being no change after the expiration of the Inspection Period and prior to the applicable Closing, in the nature or condition of or circumstances affecting the Property (other than changes arising from the development of the Lots pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or related to governmental approvals) including, without limitation, any change in (i) the areas determined to be flood prone areas or designated wetland areas, if any; (ii) the availability of utilities; (iii) access; (iv) governmental zoning ordinances; (v) materially new costs or charges associated with governmental approvals for residential construction; or (vi) any new or changes to restrictions and requirements materially adversely affecting Buyer’s ability to construct residences, except as the same may be approved by Buyer. If any such change occurs prior to the applicable Closing, then Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement by written notification to Seller at any time prior to or at the applicable Closing and, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the uncredited portion of the Xxxxxxx Money previously deposited by Buyer shall be immediately returned to Buyer and, thereafter, the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for any that expressly survive the termination hereof; provided, however, prior to terminating the Contract under this Section 14.6, Buyer shall provide notice of termination to Seller and Seller shall have up to the earlier of (a) sixty (60) days after Buyer’s delivery of the notice of termination or (b) the Outside Completion Date, to cure such change (and the applicable Closing shall be extended, if necessary), and if such change is not cured to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction within such time period, such termination shall take effect upon the expiration of such time period, unless Xxxxx withdraws such termination notice in writing prior to the expiration of such cure period. If, however, Xxxxx has such right but fails to timely terminate this Agreement as provided herein, Buyer will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate under this section and also waive the existence of such change as a Buyer’s Conditions Precedent as set forth above.

14.7 Moratorium. If the City, County or any other Governmental Authorities declares or effects any moratorium or limitation on the issuance of permits, utility service or other approvals, which moratorium or limitation is applicable to the Property or any portion thereof, and, as a result of such moratorium or limitation, the City, the County or any other Governmental Authorities will not issue permits, utility services or other approvals (collectively, a “Moratorium”), then, in such event, Buyer’s obligation to close hereunder shall xxxxx during the pendency of the Moratorium. Upon the discontinuation of any such Moratorium, the Buyer’s obligation to close hereunder shall resume as of that date and continue as per the provisions of this Agreement, provided that the applicable Closing Date shall be adjusted by the number of days Buyer’s obligations were abated hereunder. If, however, such Moratorium shall last longer than ninety (90) days, either Seller or Buyer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to the other Party within one hundred twenty (120) days after the commencement of the Moratorium (the “Moratorium Termination Deadline”). In the event Seller or Buyer has the right, and timely elects to terminate this Agreement as provided herein, then this Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of the Moratorium Termination Deadline or the termination date set forth in the termination notice, and thereafter the uncredited portion of the Xxxxxxx Money previously deposited by Buyer shall be immediately refunded to Buyer, and the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for any that expressly survive the termination hereof. If, however, Xxxxx has such right but fails to timely terminate this Agreement as provided herein, Buyer will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate under this section and also waive the existence of a Moratorium as a Buyer’s Conditions Precedent.

14.8 Casualty. If the Property is damaged by fire, flood, earthquake, or other casualty between the Effective Date and the applicable Closing, this Agreement may be terminated at the option of Buyer exercised by written notice to Seller delivered no later than the later to occur of thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such casualty or the applicable Closing Date, in which event the uncredited portion of the Xxxxxxx Money previously deposited by Buyer shall be immediately returned to Buyer, and thereafter the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those that expressly survive termination. In the event, however, that Xxxxx fails to timely terminate this Agreement as provided herein or agrees in writing to proceed to Closing notwithstanding damage resulting from such casualty, then (A) the right to receive any insurance proceeds payable to Seller, and any insurance proceeds paid to Seller, by reason of such damage shall be assigned and paid to Buyer at Closing (with no adjustment in the Purchase Price) or, at Buyer’s election, Xxxxx shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount thereof, and (B) Buyer will be deemed to have waived the occurrence of such casualty as a Buyer’s Conditions Precedent.

14.9 Condemnation. If prior to the applicable Closing, any portion of the Property is taken by any entity by condemnation or with the power of eminent domain, or if the access thereto is reduced or restricted thereby (or is the subject of a pending taking which has not yet been consummated), Seller, upon receiving notice thereof, shall immediately notify Buyer of such fact. In such event, Buyer shall have the right, in Xxxxx’s sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller and Title Company not later than seven (7) days after receipt of Seller’s notice thereof. If this Agreement is so terminated, the uncredited portion of the Xxxxxxx Money, whether deposited into escrow or released to Seller, shall be immediately returned to Buyer, and thereafter the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for any that expressly survive the termination hereof. Alternatively, Buyer, in its sole discretion, may proceed to consummate the transaction, in which event, at the sole option of Buyer, either (a) Seller shall assign and turn over, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep, any and all awards made or to be made in connection with such condemnation or eminent domain, and the Parties shall proceed to the applicable Closing pursuant to the terms hereof, or (b) the Purchase Price shall be proportionately reduced in an amount equal to the portion of the Property taken as compared to the whole, with Seller being entitled to the entire award. In the event Buyer elects to proceed to consummate this transaction, Xxxxx will be deemed to have waived the occurrence of such condemnation as a Buyer’s Conditions Precedent under as set forth above.

15. NO REAL ESTATE BROKER. Buyer and Seller each hereby represent and warrant to the other that it has not dealt with any broker or finder in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby. Xxxxx hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses of any kind or character arising out of or resulting from any agreement, arrangement or understanding made or alleged to have been made by Buyer or on its behalf with any broker or finder in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby. Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses of any kind or character arising out of or resulting from any agreement, arrangement or understanding made or alleged to have been made by Seller or on its behalf with any broker or finder in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby. This provision shall survive termination or Closing(s) of this Agreement.

16. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.

16.1 Notice and Right to Cure. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each Party shall be entitled to written notice of any default and prior to the exercise of any remedy provided herein, such defaulting Party shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice to cure any non-monetary default and ten (10) days from receipt of such notice to cure any monetary default. Both Parties agree to cooperate with the other in any and all reasonable attempts by the defaulting Party to cure any default within the default cure period. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the notice of default or cure period for the failure of a party to close the sale or purchase of Lots on a date specified for Closing shall be three (3) business days.

16.2 Seller’s Failure to Close. Subject to the notice and cure provisions in Section 16.1. above, if Seller defaults in the performance of its obligation to close on the terms and conditions contained herein at or before Closing (each, a “Seller Closing Default”), Buyer shall have the right to elect as its sole remedies to either: (i) terminate this Agreement and receive immediate return of the uncredited portion of the Xxxxxxx Money previously deposited by Buyer; or (ii) maintain an action for specific performance provided, however, that if Buyer elects to pursue specific performance but such remedy is or becomes unavailable as a result of any action or inaction of Seller or any other Seller Parties occurring from and after the Effective Date and at any time thereafter during the effective period of this Agreement, then Buyer shall have the right to pursue a claim at law for actual damages. Buyer expressly waives all other rights or remedies for any Seller Closing Defaults. Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to this paragraph, and the payment of all sums due hereunder, the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those that expressly survive termination.

16.3 Buyer’s Failure to Close. Subject to the notice and cure provisions in Section 16.1. above, if Buyer defaults in the performance of its obligations to close hereunder on the terms and conditions contained herein at or before Closing (each, a “Buyer Closing Default”), Seller shall have the right, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to terminate this Agreement and immediately receive the Xxxxxxx Money previously deposited by Buyer as liquidated damages and in lieu of all other remedies for said default by Buyer. BUYER AND SELLER EACH AGREE THAT IN THE EVENT OF A BUYER CLOSING DEFAULT, THE DAMAGES TO SELLER WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND IMPRACTICABLE TO ASCERTAIN, AND THAT THEREFORE, IN THE EVENT OF SUCH A BUYER CLOSING DEFAULT, THE XXXXXXX MONEY PREVIOUSLY DEPOSITED BY BUYER SHALL SERVE AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR SUCH DEFAULT BY BUYER, AS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES TO SELLER, INCLUDING COSTS OF NEGOTIATING AND DRAFTING THIS AGREEMENT, COSTS OF COOPERATING IN SATISFYING CONDITIONS TO CLOSING, COSTS OF SEEKING ANOTHER BUYER, OPPORTUNITY COSTS IN KEEPING THE PROPERTY OUT OF THE MARKETPLACE, AND OTHER COSTS INCURRED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH. DELIVERY TO AND RETENTION BY SELLER OF THE Xxxxxxx Money previously deposited by Buyer SHALL BE SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST BUYER IN THE EVENT OF SUCH A MATERIAL DEFAULT BY BUYER, AND SELLER WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO SEEK OTHER RIGHTS OR REMEDIES AGAINST BUYER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to this paragraph, and release of the sums hereunder, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for those that expressly survive termination.

16.4 All Other Defaults. Subject to the notice and cure provisions in Section 16.1. above, if either Party defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement other than the obligations to close as set forth in Sections 16.2 and 16.3 above, the non-defaulting Party shall have such rights and remedies as are available at law or in equity, but in no event shall either Party recover damages other than actual damages for such default (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs), and each Party expressly waives its rights to receive consequential, incidental or punitive damages or damages for lost profits under this Agreement.

16.5 No Limit on Indemnities. The provisions of this section shall not limit either Party’s express obligations to indemnify the other as set forth in other sections of this Agreement, provided, however, that in the event a Party seeks damages, it shall recover only actual damages (but not any consequential, incidental or punitive damages or damages for lost profits), and each Party expressly waives its rights to receive consequential, incidental or punitive damages or damages for lost profits under this Agreement.

16.6 Attorneys’ Fees. Should any legal action be brought in relation to this Agreement, including, without limitation, actions based on contract, tort or statute, the prevailing Party in such action shall be awarded all of the reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by such Party in connection with such action, including without limitation, any mediation, arbitration, appeal or other proceedings.

16.7 Survival. The provisions of this Section 16 shall survive the Closings, expiration, and termination of this Agreement.

17. NOTICES. Any notice or other communication to be given or served upon any party hereto in connection with this Agreement must be in writing and delivered to the party (i) in person, (ii) by overnight delivery service (including FedEx), (iii) by certified mail, return receipt requested, or (iv) electronic mail (e-mail).

18. MISCELLANEOUS.

18.1. Effective Date. This Agreement shall be deemed effective as of the date the Title Company executes the Acknowledgment attached to this Agreement, indicating its receipt of a fully-executed copy of this Agreement, and its agreement to disburse the Xxxxxxx Money deposited by Buyer in accordance with this Agreement (such date, the “Effective Date”).

18.2. Binding Agreement; Entire Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement are binding on the Parties hereto and their executors, heirs, administrators, successors and assigns.

18.3. Assignment. Buyer will have the right to assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder to any entity (i) directly or indirectly owned or controlled by Buyer, (ii) directly or indirectly controlling Buyer, (iii) directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with Buyer or Buyer’s members, or (iv) a third party who has entered into a land banking arrangement with Buyer pursuant to which Buyer has the right or option to purchase the Property from such third party, upon delivery of written notice to Seller, but without obtaining Seller’s prior consent. For any other assignment of Buyer, Xxxxx shall not have the right to assign this Agreement without Seller’s prior written consent. Seller shall have the right to collaterally assign this Agreement to secure financing but any other assignment by Seller shall require Xxxxx’s prior written consent.

18.4. Attorneys’ Fees. If any Party obtains a judgment against any other Party by reason of breach of this Agreement, the judgment shall award the recovery of attorney’s fees and costs to the Party obtaining such judgment. This provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.

To the extent of any conflict between the provisions in any exhibit or addenda attached to this Agreement and the provisions in the body of this Agreement, the provisions in the body of this Agreement shall control.

18.8. No Partnership. Nothing contained herein and no act by Buyer or Seller in the performance of, or in any way related to, this Agreement will be construed to create or evidence in any manner an employment, partnership, agency or joint venture relationship between the Parties hereto. Xxxxx and Xxxxxx agree that it is their mutual intention that the sole relationship created between them by this Agreement is that of vendor and buyer.

18.9. Obligations to Survive. All representations, warranties, obligations and other agreements shall survive Closing and the execution and delivery of a Deed and shall not be merged therein. With respect to a termination of this Agreement, all representations, warranties, obligations and other agreements shall not survive a termination, unless (i) otherwise provided herein, or (ii) a representation, warranty, obligation or other agreement herein is intended for the benefit of a Lot acquired by Buyer.

18.10. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement on any person other than the Parties to it and their respective permitted successors and assigns, nor is anything in this Agreement intended to relieve or discharge any obligation of any third person to any Party hereto or give any third person any right of subrogation or action over or against any Party to this Agreement.

18.11. No Waiver. No waiver by one Party of the other’s default, or any failure of one Party to exercise any right granted to the Party hereunder, will constitute a subsequent waiver of any default or right.

18.12. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance of all obligations by Xxxxx and Seller under this Agreement. In computing any period of time herein, the date of the act or event from which the designated period of time begins to run shall not be included. As used herein, the term “business day” shall mean Monday through Friday, but excluding any state or federal legal or bank holiday

18.13. Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not be considered in interpreting this Agreement.

18.14. Construction of Contract. All of the Parties to this Agreement participated freely in the negotiation and preparation hereof. Accordingly, this Agreement shall not be more strictly construed against any one of the Parties hereto.

18.15. Governmental Authorities. The term “Governmental Authority” or “Governmental Authorities,” as the case may be, means the federal government, the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”), the Department of Veteran’s Affairs (“VA”), the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) the state in which the Property is located, the County, the City, and any department, agency or instrumentality of any of them, and any board, authority, agency, district, utility provider, homeowners association or other organization, whether public or private, having jurisdiction over the Property or any portion thereof and whose approval is necessary for the development of the Property or the satisfaction of any of the conditions contained in this Agreement.

18.16. Governmental Requirements. The term “Governmental Requirements” means all laws, rules, standards, specifications and requirements of all Governmental Authorities applicable to the development of the Subdivision or the Lots, including without limitation the FHA and VA standards and requirements for mortgage loans.

18.17. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state in which the Property is located.

18.18. Term Equality. At all times after the Effective Date and through and until the earlier of (a) the termination of this Contract and (b) six (6) months respectively after the each of the Closings under this Contract, Seller shall not sell, convey, or enter into a contract with a third party to sell or convey any similar-sized residential lots within the Subdivision with price or terms less favorable to Seller than those offered to Buyer under this Agreement and if Seller breaches the foregoing, Seller shall notify Buyer, and Seller and Buyer, at Buyer’s option, shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement acceptable to Buyer, amending this Agreement so that this Agreement has as favorable of terms for the Buyer as Seller has offered to another builder in the Subdivision, including without limitation a reduction in the Purchase Price and if the same arises after the applicable Closing, Seller shall reimburse Buyer for the difference.

18.19. No Build for Rent Homes. Neither Buyer nor an affiliate of Buyer will construct a residence on a Lot and offer it for rent. In addition, unless otherwise approved by Seller (not to be unreasonably withheld), Xxxxx will not enter into a sales contract with any institutional entity investor that has notified Buyer that it intends to rent the residence purchased from Buyer and Buyer will not enter into a sales contract to sell more than four constructed residences to a single purchaser.

18.20. Notice to Purchasers of Real Property. In accordance with the requirement of Texas law, Xxxxxx gives the following notice to Purchaser:

“The real property, described below, that you are about to purchase is located in the Southeast Regional Management District formerly named Xxxxxx-Xxxxxxxxxx Counties Management District. The district has taxing authority separate from any other taxing authority, and may, subject to voter approval, issue an unlimited amount of bonds and levy an unlimited rate of tax in payment of such bonds. As of this date, the rate of taxes levied by the district on real property located in the district is $1.25 on each $100 of assessed valuation. The total amount of bonds, excluding refunding bonds and any bonds or any portion of bonds issued that are payable solely from revenues received or expected to be received under a contract with a governmental entity, approved by the voters and which have been or may, at this date, be issued is $________ for water, sanitary sewer and drainage purposes and $_______ for road and park purposes, and the aggregate initial principal amounts of all bonds issued for one or more of the specified facilities of the district and payable in whole or in part from property taxes is $_________ for water, sanitary sewer and drainage purposes and $_______ for road and park purposes.

The district has the authority to adopt and impose a standby fee on property in the district that has water, sanitary sewer, or drainage facilities and services available but not connected and which does not have a house, building, or other improvement located thereon and does not substantially utilize the utility capacity available to the property. The district may exercise the authority without holding an election on the matter. As of this date, the most recent amount of the standby fee is $N/A because the District has not elected to impose a standby fee. An unpaid standby fee is a personal obligation of the person that owned the property at the time of imposition and is secured by a lien on the property. Any person may request a certificate from the district stating the amount, if any, of unpaid standby fees on a tract of property in the district.

The district is located in whole or in part within the extra-territorial jurisdiction of the Cities of Houston, Tomball and Magnolia. By law, a district located within the extra-territorial jurisdiction of a municipality may be annexed and dissolved by municipal ordinance without the consent of the district or the voters of the district.

The purpose of this district is to provide water, sewer, drainage, or flood control facilities and services and roads and parks within the district through the issuance of bonds payable in whole or in part from property taxes. The cost of these facilities is not included in the purchase price of your property, and these utility facilities are owned or to be owned by the district. The legal description of the property you are acquiring is as follows: See Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof.”

At the Closing, Seller and Purchaser will execute a Notice to Buyer instrument in the form required by law.
