ARTICLE 3
DEPOSIT AND PURCHASE PRICE
3.1 Xxxxxxx Money Deposit in Escrow. Within one (1) business day following Buyer’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, (i) the parties shall establish a strict joint order escrow with Escrowee, and (ii) Buyer shall cause the Initial Xxxxxxx Money to be deposited with Escrowee in such joint order escrow (and if Buyer fails to so timely deposit such Initial Xxxxxxx Money then, without limitation of other remedies available to Seller on account of such default, Seller shall have the right to immediately terminate this Agreement and all further rights and obligations hereunder (other than those which, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, expressly survive any termination of this Agreement), by written notice thereof to Buyer). If Buyer elects to extend the Closing Date as provided in Section 1.1(f)(ii) hereof, then, as a condition to such extension, Buyer shall cause the Extension Deposit to be deposited with Escrowee, in such escrow account no later than two (2) business days prior to the initially-scheduled Closing Date hereunder (and if Buyer fails to so timely deposit such Extension Deposit then Buyer shall be deemed to have failed to validly exercise its right to extend the Closing Date hereunder). From and after the expiration of the Contingency Period, the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall be deemed earned by Seller and shall be non-refundable to Buyer except as otherwise expressly provided herein. The Xxxxxxx Money Deposit (and interest thereon net of
6
any investment charges) shall be applied against the Purchase Price at Closing, as more specifically provided in Section 3.2 below. The Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall also secure Buyer’s obligations contained in Section 5.2; any release of the Xxxxxxx Money shall be conditioned upon Buyer paying the amounts due or having performed the obligations specified in such section. Escrowee shall be directed by the parties to invest the entire Xxxxxxx Money Deposit in an interest bearing money market account, with interest thereon being applied on account of the Purchase Price at Closing, or if Closing does not occur for any reason, then such interest shall be paid to the party entitled to the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit hereunder. The parties shall direct Escrowee to disburse the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit with interest earned thereon (net of any investment charges), to the party entitled to the same as set forth in this Agreement, or as otherwise provided in Section 3.3 below. The refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, at the discretion of Seller, may be conditioned upon the execution and delivery by Buyer to Seller of an instrument in recordable form that disclaims any and all continuing right, title and interest in and to the Property.
3.2 Purchase Price and Handling of Xxxxxxx Money Deposit. At the Closing, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price, subject to prorations and adjustments, by wire transfer of collected federal funds. The Xxxxxxx Money Deposit (and interest thereon net of any investment charges) shall be (i) paid to Seller and applied against the Purchase Price at Closing, or (ii) disbursed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement if Closing does not occur as contemplated hereby, subject to the provisions contained in Section 3.1.
3.3 Closing Escrow. On or prior to the Closing Date, the parties shall establish a deed and money escrow with the Escrowee through which the transaction contemplated hereby shall be closed. Upon opening of said escrow, the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit (plus interest thereon net of any investment charges) shall be disbursed from the above-described strict joint order escrow with Escrowee and deposited in the deed and money escrow. The escrow instructions for the deed and money escrow shall be in the form customarily used by the Escrowee with such special provisions added thereto as may be required to conform to the provisions of this Agreement. Said deed and money escrow shall be auxiliary to this Agreement and this Agreement shall not be merged into nor in any manner superseded by said deed and money escrow. The escrow costs and fees for each of the escrow accounts described in this Article 3 shall be equally divided between Buyer and Seller.
ARTICLE 4
TITLE AND SURVEY
4.1 Title. Seller shall use good faith efforts to obtain and deliver to Buyer, within five (5) business days following the Contract Date, the Title Commitment, together with a copy of each recorded document raised as an exception therein. Buyer shall have the right to review the Title Commitment and all exceptions to title referenced in the Title Commitment and object to any matters reflected on the Title Commitment or the Survey or any Updated Survey, by delivering written notice thereof to Seller on or before three (3) business days prior to the end of the Contingency Period. Except for Monetary Liens (as hereinafter described), Seller may, but shall have no obligation to, have any exceptions to title referenced in the Title Commitment (or
7
in any update thereto prior to Closing) and so objected to by Buyer or any exceptions to the Survey or any Updated Survey so objected to by Buyer, removed from the Title Commitment or the Survey or Updated Survey (as the case may be) or insured or endorsed over by the Title Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any delinquent real property taxes, deeds of trust, mortgages and, to the extent arising out of the acts of Seller, mechanic’s liens (specifically excluding liens created by, through or under tenants or securing the rights of other parties under the Contracts) (collectively, “Monetary Liens”), disclosed on any Title Commitment shall be automatically deemed unpermitted exceptions, and Seller shall cause all such Monetary Liens disclosed in the Title Commitment to be removed therefrom or insured or endorsed over by the Title Company on or before the Closing Date. If Seller fails to cause the Title Company to have all exceptions to the Title Commitment or the Survey or any Updated Survey so objected to by Buyer removed (or committed to be removed by the Title Company) from the Title Commitment or removed from the Survey or Updated Survey (as the case may be) or committed to be insured or endorsed over by the Title Company, on or before the Due Diligence Approval Date, Buyer may elect, by written notice delivered to Seller on or before the Due Diligence Approval Date, as its sole and exclusive recourse, to either (i) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and any interest thereon, shall be forthwith returned to Buyer, subject to the disbursement and payment release conditions set forth in Section 3.1, all obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate (other than those matters which expressly survive the early termination of this Agreement), and this Agreement shall otherwise have no further force and effect, or (ii) accept title to the Property subject to all such exceptions which the Title Company has not so removed (or committed to be removed) or committed to insure or endorse over or which were not so removed from the Survey or Updated Survey (as the case may be), all of which shall thereafter be deemed “Permitted Title Exceptions,” hereunder; provided, however, that with respect to any Monetary Liens disclosed on the Title Commitment, Seller shall not be obligated to have the Title Company remove (or commit to remove) or commit to insure or endorse over same prior to the Due Diligence Approval Date and, instead, Seller shall simply be required to have same removed, or insured or endorsed over, by the Title Company on or prior to the Closing Date. Buyer’s failure to make either election on or before the Due Diligence Approval Date shall be deemed an election under clause (ii) above. On the Closing Date, subject to the provisions of Section 11.7 below, Seller shall cause the Title Company to issue the Title Policy (or “marked-up” title commitment unconditionally committing the Title Company to issue such Title Policy) to Buyer, pursuant to and in accordance with the Title Commitment, insuring Buyer’s fee simple title in the Land and Building thereon as of the Closing Date in the amount of the Purchase Price, subject only to the Permitted Title Exceptions and such other exceptions as Buyer may approve (or be deemed to have approved) pursuant to this Agreement. Buyer shall have the right, at any time prior to Closing, to cause the Title Company to issue such endorsements (“Buyer Endorsements”) to the Title Policy as Buyer shall deem necessary (including, without limitation “extended coverage”), at Buyer’s sole cost and expense and without obligation on the part of Seller to obtain such Buyer Endorsements; provided that Seller shall make good faith efforts to assist Buyer in obtaining such Buyer Endorsements, provided, further, however, that (i) Seller shall have no obligation to obtain such Buyer Endorsements, to incur any additional costs in connection with procuring such Buyer Endorsements or to obtain any consents, approvals or estoppel certificates from third parties in connection with procuring such Buyer Endorsements, and (ii) Buyer’s ability or inability to obtain such Buyer Endorsements shall not constitute a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligations under this
8
Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, an exception referenced in the Title Commitment (or any update thereto) objected to by Buyer or otherwise constituting an unpermitted exception hereunder, or a Survey or Updated Survey matter objected to by Buyer, shall be considered to be “insured or endorsed over” only if the same is effected by the issuance of title insurance or a commitment for title insurance eliminating or insuring against the effect of the title or survey matter (subject, in the case of any endorsement insuring over such matter, to Buyer’s reasonable prior approval of the form and content of such endorsement).
4.2 Survey. Buyer and Seller agree that (i) within five (5) business days following the Contract Date, Seller shall deliver the Survey to Buyer, (ii) prior to the Closing Date, Buyer may obtain, at its expense (except to the extent same is Seller’s expense under Section 10.3 below), a new or an updated survey of the Land (in any such case, an “Updated Survey”), (iii) all matters disclosed on the Survey and any Updated Survey (or which would be disclosed on any Updated Survey) not objected to by Buyer on or before three (3) business days prior to the end of the Contingency Period, as required under Section 4.1 above, shall be deemed “Permitted Title Exceptions” hereunder, (iv) Seller may, but shall have no obligation to, have any matters disclosed on the Survey or any Updated Survey (or which would be disclosed on any Updated Survey) and which are objected to by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1 above removed from the Survey or Updated Survey or removed from or insured or endorsed over by the Title Company, and (v) if Buyer does not terminate this Agreement on or before the Due Diligence Approval Date, pursuant to Section 4.1 above, then all matters disclosed on the Survey and on any Updated Survey shall be deemed “Permitted Title Exceptions” for all purposes of this Agreement.
4.3 Tenant Estoppels. Following the Contract Date (which may, at Seller’s election, be within a reasonable time after the Contingency Period), Seller shall deliver an estoppel letter to JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (“JPMorgan”) as tenant under that certain Agreement of Office Lease dated February 9, 2010 between Seller, as landlord, and JPMorgan, as tenant (as amended from time to time, the “JPMorgan Lease”), conforming with the estoppel requirements of the JPMorgan Lease (the “Required Lease Estoppel Form”). In that regard, Seller and Buyer hereby acknowledge that, as of the date hereof, JPMorgan is the sole tenant of the Building and that JPMorgan may have subtenants. Promptly after receipt from JPMorgan, Seller shall deliver such tenant’s estoppel letter to Buyer. All estoppel letters described in this Section 4.3 shall be dated not earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date (provided, however, that if the initially-scheduled Closing Date set forth in this Agreement is extended for any reason [other than a Seller default hereunder or pursuant to Seller’s right to extend the Closing Date under Section 1.1(f) above] then any estoppel letter described in this Section 4.3 which is dated within thirty (30) days of said initially-scheduled Closing Date shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of this Section 4.3 concerning the required date of estoppel letters, and Seller shall have no obligation to cause same to be dated-down or re-executed). Buyer’s obligation to proceed to Closing shall be conditioned upon satisfaction of the following conditions, provided that Buyer may in its sole discretion elect to waive failure by Seller to satisfy any particular condition:
(a) Seller shall use good faith efforts to deliver to Buyer, on or before the Closing Date, the Required Lease Estoppel Form executed by JPMorgan with respect to its Lease at the Building (with such non-material modifications or disclosures as JPMorgan shall make thereto) (the “Estoppel Threshold”). For purposes of the
9
preceding sentence, a “non-material” modification or disclosure shall mean a modification or disclosure which is not inconsistent, in any material respect, with any of Seller’s representations or warranties contained in this Agreement (except to the extent that the subject of such inconsistency has been heretofore otherwise disclosed to Buyer in this Agreement, the Due Diligence Materials or otherwise) and does not allege a default by Seller under the JPMorgan Lease.
If, on or before the Closing Date (as same may be extended as described in Section 1.1(f) above), Seller is unable to satisfy the Estoppel Threshold, then Seller will not be in default by reason thereof, but Buyer shall, by notice given to Seller before the Closing, elect, as its sole recourse therefor, either (i) to waive said conditions and proceed with the Closing, accepting the Property subject thereto, or (ii) to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, subject to the disbursement and payment release conditions set forth in Section 3.1, and the parties shall have no further liability or obligations to each other hereunder (other than those liabilities and obligations that expressly survive a termination of this Agreement). Buyer’s failure to elect either (i) or (ii) above, in writing to Seller, on or before the Closing Date (as same may be extended as aforesaid) shall be deemed an election of option (i) set forth in this Section 4.3.
ARTICLE 5
DUE DILIGENCE
5.1 Due Diligence Materials. The parties hereby acknowledge that Seller has heretofore furnished to Buyer (or made available to Buyer), or will make available to Buyer during the Contingency Period, copies of the Due Diligence Materials, to the extent in the possession of Seller. Seller makes no representation or warranty concerning the accuracy or completeness of any of the Due Diligence Materials.
5.2 Inspection. During the Contingency Period (but ending, in any event, as of any earlier termination of this Agreement), Seller shall permit Buyer, its officers, agents and employees (collectively, “Buyer’s Representatives”) access to, entry upon and the opportunity to examine, inspect, measure and test the Real Property (herein collectively, the “Inspections”). From and after the Due Diligence Approval Date through the Closing (or earlier termination of this Agreement), Buyer’s Representatives may perform additional Inspections in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Any access by Buyer’s Representatives to perform Inspections shall be subject in all respects to Seller’s and the tenants’ rights under the Leases at the Real Property. Any entry by Buyer’s Representatives upon the Real Property shall be in compliance with all permits, codes, regulations, rules, laws, statutes and other requirements of any governmental body, agency or authority having jurisdiction over the Property, as well as the requirements of any Leases, ground leases and any private covenants, restrictions and easements of record.

10
the Leases at the Real Property to permit or consent to same or to otherwise permit or consent to any other Inspections hereunder, and subject to the other terms and conditions regarding Inspections hereunder). The costs of conducting and obtaining any such Phase I Study and the Structural Report or of otherwise performing any other Inspections shall be the responsibility of Buyer. If Buyer fails to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for any reason other than Seller’s default, or in any case, upon Seller’s request therefor from time to time, Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller a copy of any written report or study relating to the Property prepared for Buyer by any third party consultant or other third party Buyer Representative; provided, however, any such reports or studies shall be delivered without any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such report or study. Any entry upon the Land or Improvements by Buyer or Buyer’s Representatives for the purpose of conducting such Inspections shall be upon not less than twenty-four (24) hours prior notice to Seller prior to any entry upon the Land or Improvements for the purpose of conducting such Inspections, and shall be subject, in any event, to prior scheduling and coordination with Seller. At Seller’s election, a representative of Seller shall be present during any entry by Buyer or Buyer’s Representatives upon the Land or Improvements to conduct the Inspections. Buyer shall not cause or permit any mechanic’s liens, materialmen’s liens or other liens to be filed against the Property as a result of the Inspections. Buyer shall furnish Seller with evidence of commercial general liability insurance having coverage limits of at least Two Million and 00/100 US Dollars ($2,000,000), together with such other insurance as Seller may reasonably require Buyer to carry against liabilities which may arise in connection with the Inspections. All Inspections shall be performed in a manner that will not disturb the ongoing operations at the Real Property, nor cause any damage, loss, disturbance to business, cost or expense to, or claims against, Seller or the Property. Prior to Closing (or earlier termination of this Agreement), Buyer shall not approach, contact or involve itself in any discussions or negotiations with any tenant of the Real Property under any Lease or with any other occupant of the Real Property, without Seller or its representative being present thereat. Buyer shall in no event (i) request or initiate any inspections of the Property by any governmental or quasi-governmental entities or agencies, and (ii) involve itself in any discussions with governmental or quasi-governmental entities concerning the Property without Seller being present at such discussions and pre-approving (in its sole discretion) the scope and content of such discussions. Buyer shall promptly repair and restore any damage to the Property caused by the prior or any subsequent entry upon the Land or Improvements by Buyer or the other Buyer’s Representatives. Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and Seller’s officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, managers, tenants, agents and employees (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all actions, losses, costs, damages, claims, liabilities, and expenses (including litigation expenses and court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees) brought, sought or incurred by or against any of the Seller Indemnified Parties resulting from, arising out of, or in any way relating to, entry upon the Land or Improvements by Buyer or any of the other Buyer’s Representatives or otherwise in any way related to the Inspections, whether conducted prior to, as of or subsequent to the Contract Date, or any violation of the provisions of this Section 5.2. The foregoing indemnification and repair and restoration obligations (herein collectively referred to as “Buyer’s Indemnity”) shall expressly survive the Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement.
5.3 Due Diligence Termination. The obligation of Buyer to close the transaction contemplated hereby is subject to Buyer’s review of, approval of and satisfaction with, at its sole
11
cost and expense, on or before the Due Diligence Approval Date, the Due Diligence Materials, the Title Commitment, the Survey, any Updated Survey, the results of the Inspections and all other matters respecting Buyer’s investigation of the Property. If Buyer, in its sole and absolute discretion, is not satisfied with any of the foregoing matters, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by delivery to Seller of written unconditional notice thereof delivered at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., Central Time, on the Due Diligence Approval Date, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and all interest earned thereon (net of investment charges) shall promptly be returned to Buyer, subject to the disbursement and payment release conditions set forth in Section 3.1, in which case this Agreement shall become null and void and neither party shall have any further rights and obligations hereunder (subject, however, to survival of Buyer’s Indemnity and other matters herein which expressly survive the early termination of this Agreement). Buyer’s failure to timely deliver its termination notice as provided in this Section 5.3 shall be deemed a waiver of Buyer’s contingencies described in this Section 5.3 and otherwise in this Agreement, whereupon the parties shall proceed to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement as provided herein, and the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit shall be deemed non-refundable (except as otherwise expressly provided herein). Buyer hereby acknowledges that (i) it has heretofore had, and/or through the end of the Contingency Period it shall have, ample opportunity to review and analyze the Due Diligence Materials, the Title Commitment, the Survey, any Updated Survey, the results of the Inspections and all other matters respecting the Property, and (ii) in the event this Agreement is not otherwise terminated by Buyer prior to the end of the Contingency Period, as permitted under this Section 5.3 or under Article 4 above, then any future Inspections Buyer may conduct following the Contingency Period are solely being permitted as an accommodation to Buyer and the results of same shall in no event be deemed to grant Buyer any further contingency under this Agreement or serve as the basis for any right of Buyer to terminate this Agreement.

ARTICLE 9
DESTRUCTION, DAMAGE OR CONDEMNATION
9.1 Destruction or Damage. If, subsequent to the Contract Date and on or before the Closing Date, all or any material portion of the Real Property shall be destroyed or damaged by one or more incidents of fire or other casualty, Seller shall immediately give Buyer notice of such occurrence, and Buyer shall on or before the earlier to occur of (i) fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice and (ii) the then scheduled Closing Date (provided Buyer shall have had not fewer than three (3) business days within which to make such election, otherwise the Closing Date shall automatically be extended to the business day which will permit Buyer such minimum three (3) business day period), elect by written notice to Seller to (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and any interest thereon net of any

With respect to any such damage which is not material, Buyer shall have no right to terminate this Agreement provided that closing and insurance adjustment procedures described in clause (b) above shall still apply.
9.2 Condemnation. If, subsequent to the Contract Date and on or before the Closing Date, any proceeding which shall relate to the proposed taking of any material portion of the Real Property by condemnation or eminent domain is instituted or commenced, Buyer shall have the right and option to terminate this Agreement or to waive such condition and proceed to Closing, by giving Seller written notice of such election on or before the earlier to occur of (i) fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notification of any such occurrence or occurrences and (ii) the then scheduled Closing Date (provided Buyer shall have had not fewer than three (3) business days within which to make such election, otherwise the Closing Date shall automatically be extended to the business day which will permit Buyer such minimum three (3) business day period).

If Buyer does not elect (or is deemed to have not elected) to terminate this Agreement, the parties shall proceed to close the transaction contemplated hereby and, to the extent the tenant(s) under the Leases at the Real Property are not entitled to the condemnation proceeds, Buyer shall be at Closing (i) credited with any condemnation proceeds theretofore paid to Seller with respect to the taking (and not theretofore used for restoration or repair), and (ii) assigned all Seller’s right to any other proceeds therefrom.

Section 9.2 unless either (1) the value of the portion of the Real Property taken exceeds, in the aggregate, One Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 US Dollars ($1,500,000.00), or (2) JPMorgan has the right to terminate the JPMorgan Lease as a result of such taking and has not otherwise waived such right, in writing. With respect to any such taking which is not material Buyer shall have no right to terminate this Agreement provided that, to the extent the tenant(s) at the Real Property are not entitled to the condemnation proceeds, Buyer shall still be (i) credited with any condemnation proceeds paid to Seller (and not theretofore used for restoration or repair) and (ii) assigned all of Seller’s right to any other proceeds therefrom.

21
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection (ii), to the extent it is the responsibility of the tenants under the Leases to pay the Taxes directly to the applicable taxing authorities (or directly to Seller when bills are issued), there shall be no proration between Seller and Buyer with respect thereto.
Any refund or credit attributable to Seller’s overpayment of Taxes payable in 2010 for the period prior to Closing and for previous years (collectively, the “Refund”) which is not the property of tenants under Leases is the property of Seller, and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller to obtain the Refund at Seller’s reasonable expense.

Seller shall be responsible to pay in full all bills for such utility charges related to any period prior to the Closing Date and Buyer shall be responsible to pay all utility charges related to any period on and subsequent to the Closing Date. With respect to utilities which are not metered, charges for such service shall be prorated as of the Closing Date, based on charges for the previous billing period, and Buyer and Seller shall receive credits or charges, as appropriate, with such amounts to be reprorated promptly after the final bills are issued. Seller shall cooperate with Buyer to effect the transfer of utility accounts from Seller to Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection (b), to the extent that it is the responsibility of the tenants under the Leases to pay the aforesaid utilities directly to the applicable utility providers, there shall be no proration between Seller and Buyer with respect thereto and there shall be no final meter readings, and if any such utilities are in the name of any such tenants, then there shall be no change in the name such utilities are placed in.
(c) Buyer shall be entitled to a credit against the Purchase Price for sums that are due (or accrued) and unpaid as of the Closing Date under any Contracts being assumed by Buyer which are not otherwise covered by the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.2, and Seller shall be entitled to a credit to the extent that sums have been paid under any Contract, for services to be performed or goods to be delivered after the Closing Date.
(d) Seller shall be responsible for all Tenant Inducement Costs (if any) which are due and payable on or before the Closing Date under or related to the Leases to which Seller is a party in existence as of the Contract Date; Buyer shall be responsible for (and Seller shall have no responsibility for) all Tenant Inducement Costs, if any (i) for or related to all new Leases (i.e., including, without limitation, any amendment to an existing Lease) signed after the Contract Date; and/or (ii) which are due and payable after the Closing Date for or related to the Leases in existence as of the Contract Date.
22
(e) Unpaid and delinquent rent under Leases collected by Seller and Buyer after the Closing Date will be delivered as follows: (i) if Seller collects any unpaid or delinquent rent for the Property, Seller will, within fifteen (15) business days after the receipt thereof, deliver to Buyer any such rent which Buyer is entitled to hereunder relating to the date of Closing and any period thereafter, and (ii) if Buyer collects any unpaid or delinquent rent from the Property, Buyer will, within fifteen (15) business days after the receipt thereof, deliver to Seller any such rent which Seller is entitled to hereunder relating to the period prior to the date of Closing. Seller and Buyer agree that all rent received by Seller or Buyer will be applied first to rents that became due and payable after Closing, and second, to those which were due and payable prior to Closing, in reverse order of maturity. Buyer will make a good faith effort after Closing to collect all unpaid and delinquent rents in the usual course of Buyer’s operation of the Property, but Buyer will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect such unpaid or delinquent rents. In the event that there shall be any rents or other charges under any Leases which, although relating to a period prior to Closing, do not become due and payable until after Closing or are paid prior to Closing but are subject to adjustment after Closing (e.g., such as year end operating and common area expense reimbursements and the like), then any rents or charges of such type received by Buyer or its agents or Seller or its agents subsequent to Closing will, to the extent applicable to a period extending through the Closing, be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of Closing and Seller’s portion thereof will be remitted promptly to Seller by Buyer without reduction for any costs of collection or processing.
(f) All other expenses customarily prorated on the transfer of single-tenant leased properties in the areas where the Property is located shall be prorated on an accrual basis as of the Closing Date on the basis of the most recent ascertainable amounts of or other reliable information in respect to each such item of income and expense, and the net credit to Buyer or Seller shall be paid in cash or as a credit against that portion of the Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date. Any item prorated on an estimated basis on the Closing Date shall be reprorated by the parties when and as the actual amount of such item of income or expense becomes known. Any adjustment due to reproration shall be effected promptly following final determination of the amount of such item and demand by the party to whom credit is due.
(g) On the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer (or give Buyer a credit for), the balance of all cash security deposits then held by or for Seller under the Leases and not theretofore applied on account of tenant defaults.
(h) The provisions of this Section 10.2 will survive the Closing.
10.3 Closing Costs. Seller shall be responsible for: (i) one hundred percent (100%) of all title charges and premiums attributable to the Title Commitment and the Title Policy (and “xxxx-up”) required to be delivered by Seller hereunder (i.e., specifically excluding any additional charges or premiums for Buyer Endorsements, but specifically including 100% of any additional charges or premiums for insuring or endorsing over unpermitted Monetary Liens); (ii) all charges for the Survey and one Updated Survey from the surveyor who prepared the Survey; and (iii) fifty percent (50%) of all closing fees and escrow fees and costs. Buyer shall be
23
responsible for (a) all recording fees; (b) fifty percent (50%) of all closing fees and escrow fees and costs; (c) 100% of the costs of all Buyer Endorsements; and (d) 100% of all costs incurred in connection with any financing obtained by Buyer (including all charges for any lender title insurance commitments or policies and closing services performed by the Title Company) and in connection with any Inspections conducted by Buyer hereunder. Buyer and Seller shall each pay the fees and expenses of their respective legal counsel incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 15.7 below.

26
11.6 Type of Closing. The parties agree that the transaction shall be closed through escrow by means of a so-called “New York Style Closing” (i.e., meaning a Closing which has, on the Closing Date, the concurrent delivery of the documents of title, transfer of interests, delivery of the Title Policy or “marked-up” title commitment as described herein and the payment of the Purchase Price). The parties shall provide any customary affidavits or undertakings to the Title Company necessary for the aforedescribed “New York Style” type of Closing to occur.
11.7 Title Insurance. Seller agrees to use good faith, diligent efforts to cause the Title Company, at Closing, to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) the Title Policy, in all material respects, as required under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if, however, the Title Company fails or refuses to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) said Title Policy at Closing, and provided that (i) Seller has utilized good faith, diligent efforts to cause Title Company to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) such Title Policy, (ii) Seller has delivered all customary indemnifications and/or affidavits to the Title Company to enable the Title Company to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) such Title Policy, (iii) the failure of the Title Company to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) such Title Policy is not the result of any new title matter first arising from and after the date of the Title Commitment and arising from the acts or omissions of Seller in violation of the provisions of this Agreement, and (iv) the failure of the Title Company to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) such Title Policy is not a result of any default of Seller hereunder (other than a default based on a failure of Seller to cause the Title Company to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) such Title Policy otherwise required hereunder), then, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the failure of the Title Company to issue (or irrevocably commit to issue) said Title Policy shall not be deemed a default by Seller hereunder, and, in lieu thereof, and as its sole recourse, Buyer may elect to either (1) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and any interest thereon net of investment charges shall be forthwith returned to Buyer, subject to the disbursement and payment release conditions set forth in Section 3.1, all obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate, and this Agreement shall otherwise have no further force and effect (other than those matters which expressly survive early termination of this Agreement), or (2) proceed to close the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, whereupon Buyer shall accept such form of title insurance policies, if any, as the Title Company is then prepared to issue. Buyer’s failure to make either of the two elections described in the preceding sentence on or before the Closing Date shall be deemed an election of option (2) above.
ARTICLE 12
DEFAULT
12.1 Buyer Default.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if, prior to Closing, Buyer is in default of this Agreement or in breach of any representation or warranty as and when made in this Agreement and Seller has knowledge thereof prior to Closing, then Seller shall deliver to Buyer written notice of such default or breach, which notice shall describe the nature of the default or breach and Buyer shall have a
27
period of five (5) days to cure same (provided, however, that Buyer shall not be entitled to any such notice and opportunity to cure for any default under Articles 10, 11, 13 and Article 16). If such default or breach remains uncured beyond the five (5) day period described above, as applicable, or in the event of such default or breach where no such notice and cure period is permitted as provided above, then, except as provided below in this Section 12.1 and without limiting the other obligations and indemnities under this Agreement that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy in lieu of all other legal or equitable remedies, Seller shall be entitled to (i) retain the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and interest earned thereon (net of investment charges) as Seller’s liquidated damages, or (ii) waive the default at issue in writing and proceed to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the other terms and provisions of this Agreement. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICABLE AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN THE ACTUAL DAMAGES SUFFERED BY SELLER AS A RESULT OF BUYER’S FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS SECTION REPRESENT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER WILL INCUR AS A RESULT OF SUCH FAILURE; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT AFFECT SELLER’S RIGHTS AND BUYER’S INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 5.2 OF THIS AGREEMENT, NOR SELLER’S RIGHTS AND BUYER’S OBLIGATIONS UNDER ARTICLE 13 AND ARTICLE 16 BELOW AND UNDER THE CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT DESCRIBED IN SECTION 16.1 BELOW. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PAYMENT OF SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER. EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS WHATSOEVER TO CONTEST THE VALIDITY OF THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGE PROVISIONS FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THAT SUCH PROVISION WAS UNREASONABLE UNDER CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AT THE TIME THIS AGREEMENT WAS MADE.
(b) If Buyer is in default of this Agreement after Closing or if Seller obtains knowledge, after Closing, of any pre-Closing Buyer default or any breach of any representation or warranty as and when made in this Agreement, then, subject to the survival periods expressly set forth in this Agreement, Seller shall have the right, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to seek damages from Buyer on account thereof. In no event shall Buyer be liable for consequential, special or punitive damages (it being understood that any actual damages incurred by Seller on account of such default or breach by Buyer, to the extent arising from any third party claims against Seller, shall not be deemed “consequential, special or punitive damages” for purposes of the foregoing).
12.2 Seller Default.
(a) If, prior to Closing, Seller is in default of this Agreement or in breach of any representation or warranty as and when made in this Agreement and Buyer has
28
knowledge thereof prior to the Closing, then Buyer shall deliver to Seller written notice of such default or breach, which notice shall describe the nature of the default or breach, and Seller shall have a period of five (5) days to cure same. If such default or breach remains uncured beyond the five (5) day period described above (it being understood by the parties that, with respect to any breach of (x) a representation or warranty, so long as Seller’s curative actions result in the representation or warranty at issue then being true in “all material respects” [as defined below], then said breach shall be deemed cured for purposes hereof; and (y) a covenant, so long as Seller’s curative actions result in the breach of the covenant at issue then being “non-material” [as defined below], then said breach shall be deemed cured for purposes hereof), then Buyer may elect by written notice to Seller and as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, in lieu of any and all other remedies at law or in equity to either: (i) to cancel this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit and interest earned thereon (net of investment charges) shall be returned to Buyer, subject to the disbursement and payment release conditions set forth in Section 3.1, (ii) to notify Seller within thirty (30) days after the written notice of the breach that Buyer intends to enforce specific performance of this Agreement (an “Intent Notice”), and to thereafter bring suit to specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement within forty-five (45) days after delivery of such Intent Notice (subject, however, in any event, to the provisions contained in Section 6.2 above), or (iii) waive the default at issue in writing and proceed to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement. If Buyer does not notify Seller of its election on or before the scheduled Closing Date (or five (5) days after Buyer’s delivery of its notice of default, if earlier), Buyer shall be deemed to have elected option (iii) above. For purposes of this Section 12.2(a) the term (x) “all material respects” shall mean that any inaccuracy in such representation or warranty at issue (together with all other breaches of representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, if any) will have an adverse monetary effect on the Property which does not exceed Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00); and (y) “non-material” shall mean that any breach of the covenant at issue (together with all other breaches of covenants contained in this Agreement, if any) will have an adverse monetary effect on the Property which does not exceed Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00).
(b) In the event Seller is in default of this Agreement after Closing or if Buyer obtains knowledge, after Closing, of any pre-Closing Seller default or any breach of any representation or warranty as and when made in this Agreement, then, subject to the provisions of Section 6.2 above, and the survival periods expressly set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to seek damages from Seller on account thereof. In no event shall Seller be liable for consequential, special or punitive damages (it being understood that any actual damages incurred by Buyer on account of such default or breach by Seller, to the extent arising from any third party claims against Buyer, shall not be deemed “consequential, special or punitive damages” for purposes of the foregoing).
ARTICLE 13
BROKERAGE
29
13.1 Brokerage. Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer that Seller has not dealt with any broker or finder with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby other than CB Xxxxxxx Xxxxx (“Seller’s Broker”). Seller agrees to pay a brokerage commission to Seller’s Broker pursuant to Seller’s written agreement with said Seller’s Broker. Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer for any claim for brokerage commission or finder’s fee asserted by any person, firm or corporation claiming to have been engaged by Seller. Buyer hereby represents and warrants to Seller that Buyer has not dealt with any broker or finder in respect to the transaction contemplated hereby other than Seller’s Broker.

ARTICLE 16
CONFIDENTIALITY
16.1 Confidentiality. Prior to Closing (as it relates specifically to the Property) and at any time (as it relates specifically to Seller or its affiliates or the terms of the transaction contemplated hereby), any and all information regarding the Property or regarding Seller or its affiliates which is provided or made available to Buyer by Seller or by its agents, or any other information obtained by Buyer regarding the Property or the Seller or its affiliates in the course of Buyer’s Inspections or other due diligence investigations hereunder, or any information regarding the terms of the transaction contemplated hereby, in each case to the extent not generally available to the public (herein, the “Confidential Materials”), shall be maintained by Buyer and each of Buyer’s Representatives and Buyer’s officers, directors, partners, principals, members, employees, agents, contractors, attorneys, accountants and consultants in strict confidence, to be used solely in connection with evaluating the transaction contemplated hereby, and shall not be disclosed to any other third parties without the prior written consent of Seller. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any breach or threatened breach of this confidentiality provision would cause irreparable harm to Seller which may not be adequately remedied by monetary damages and that, as a result, Seller may, in such event, in addition to any other rights or remedies available hereunder or at law or in equity, seek an injunction enjoining any disclosure of the Confidential Materials. This obligation of confidentiality shall not apply to disclosures compelled by law (including to make any required SEC, New York Stock Exchange
32
or other securities market filings), any order of a court of competent jurisdiction or by a lawful, proper subpoena, in which event Buyer shall immediately notify Seller of the circumstances purporting to require such disclosure and shall refrain from such disclosure for the maximum period of time allowed by law so that Seller may take such actions as it may deem appropriate to protect the Confidential Materials being sought. Buyer shall make all parties having access to the Confidential Materials aware of their obligation of confidentiality described in this Section 16.1 and shall bind such parties to similar obligations of confidentiality. The terms of this Section 16.1 shall expressly survive the early termination of this Agreement for the longest period provided by law. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason prior to the Closing of the transaction contemplated hereby, then, upon the request of Seller, Buyer shall immediately return to Seller all Confidential Materials (including all copies thereof) which are in the possession of Buyer or any of Buyer’s Representatives. Nothing contained in this Section 16.1 shall limit the parties rights and obligations under that certain Purchaser’s Confidentiality Agreement heretofore entered into on behalf of Seller and Buyer (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), a copy of which Confidentiality Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit K. Nothing in this Section 16.1 shall prohibit or restrict Buyer’s ability to issue a press release following the Closing, reporting the acquisition of the Property, so long as such press release does not contain any reference to the Purchase Price or other economic terms hereof and is otherwise in form and content reasonably approved, in advance, by the Seller.
ARTICLE 17
EXCHANGE PROVISIONS
17.1 Tax Free Exchange. If either Party (the “Notifying Party”) notifies the other Party (the “Other Party”) not less than five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date that the Notifying Party wishes to attempt to effectuate a “tax-free” exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code in connection with the transaction contemplated in this Agreement, the Other Party shall cooperate with the Notifying Party (including, without limitation, executing applicable documents), at no cost, expense, or liability to the Other Party, in the Notifying Party’s attempt to effectuate such exchange, but the Other Party makes no representations to the Notifying Party that any such exchange shall be treated as “tax-free” by the Internal Revenue Service. The Notifying Party agrees to indemnify the Other Party from all liability with respect to any action which the Notifying Party requests the Other Party to take pursuant to this Section 17 and to reimburse the Other Party for all fees, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by the Other Party as a result of the Notifying Party’s election to participate in a Section 1031 exchange. The Other Party shall not be required to hold title to any real estate or other assets in order to cooperate with the Notifying Party’s Section 1031 exchange. The provisions of this Section 17 shall survive Closing.

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT
We understand that your organization (the “Company”) is interested in pursuing the acquisition of the above referenced property (the “Acquisition”) involving Owner (collectively the “Owner”). To assist you in your evaluation of a potential acquisition of that certain property currently managed or controlled by Owner, we will provide you with certain information concerning the acquisition. As a condition to furnishing you with such information, Company agrees to treat confidentially such information and any other information (collectively the “Evaluation Material”) which Owner, its affiliates, partners, lenders, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants, advisors or references (collectively the “Representatives”) furnish to your Company. The term Evaluation Material will also include any analysis, compilations, studies or other documents prepared by Company or Company’s Representatives containing, or based in whole or in part on, any information furnished by Owner.
Company agrees that the Evaluation Material will be kept confidential by it and its Representatives and shall not, except as hereinafter provided, without the prior written consent of Owner, be disclosed by it or its Representatives other than for the purpose of evaluating the Acquisition. Moreover, Company further agrees to transmit Evaluation Material only to those of its Representatives who need such information for the purpose of evaluating the Acquisition and who shall (i) be advised by Company of this letter agreement (the “Agreement”) and (ii) agree with Company to be bound by the provisions hereof. Company shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by its Representatives.
In the event that the acquisition is not affected after Company has been furnished with Evaluation Material, Company will promptly deliver to Owner the Evaluation Material and all copies thereof, except for the portion of compilations, studies or other documents prepared by Company or its Representatives, without retaining any copy thereof. That portion of the Evaluation Material which consists of analysis, compilations, studies or other documents prepared by Company or its Representatives will be held by it and kept confidential and subject to the terms of this agreement, or destroyed at the request of Owner. Such destruction will be confirmed by Owner.
The term Evaluation Material does not include information which (i) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by Company or its Representatives, (ii) was available to Company on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to Company by Owner or its Representatives; provided, however, that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with Owner or its Representative.
Although Company understands that Owners has endeavored to include in the Evaluation Material information known to it which it believes to be relevant for the purposes of Company’s investigation, Company further understands that except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, Owner does not make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the Evaluation Material. Company agrees that neither Owner nor its Representatives under this agreement for any cause whatsoever.
This agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, may not be changed, waived or terminated orally and shall be binding upon the parties and their successors or assigns.
|
The company confirms the understanding that any agreements between the Company and Owner concerning the Acquisition will exist only when such agreement is in writing and duly executed by the parties thereto. |
