(b) Within three (3) business days after the Effective Date (described in § 12 (f) below), Purchaser shall deposit the sum of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($ 50,000) by cashier's check (subject to deposit and clearance) or wire transfer of immediately available federal funds (the “Initial Deposit”), with Xxxxx, Xxxx & Xxxxxxxxxxxxx, P.A., Attn.: Xxxxx X.

(d) The parties shall execute and deliver escrow instructions, if any, reasonably required by the Escrow Agent which must in all respects be in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall acknowledge receipt of the Deposit in writing to the parties and agree to accept, hold, and return such Deposit and disburse any funds received hereunder, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If the transaction contemplated herein should fail to close for any reason other than Purchaser’s default and failure to cure that default hereunder, the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Purchaser must provide written notice to Seller on or before the last day of the Feasibility Period affirmatively stating that it does not desire to proceed to Closing (the “Affirmative Notice”). If the Purchaser timely provides this written notice, this Agreement shall automatically terminate, the Deposit shall be refunded to the Purchaser, and neither party will thereafter have any further liability to the other (except for liabilities which expressly survive termination). If the Purchaser does not deliver an Affirmative Notice to Seller on or before the last day of the Feasibility Period, the Deposit shall become non-refundable to Purchaser for any reason other than a default by Seller or as expressly provided in § 4 or § 7 hereof.
(e) At the Closing (described in § 5 (a) below), (i) the Deposit, including all accrued interest thereon, shall be applied toward the Purchase Price, and (ii) Purchaser shall pay the balance of the Purchase Price by delivery cashier’s check, certified check, or wire transferring the required sum in currently available funds to the party conducting settlement (the “Settlement Company”).

Any exceptions to title taken by the Title Company in such commitment shall be Permitted Exceptions hereunder if Purchaser does not, during that Feasibility Period, object to such matters by written notice to Seller. Within three (3) business days of receipt of such notice from Purchaser, Seller shall advise Purchaser in writing whether or not Seller agrees to cure any exceptions to title or the Survey to which Purchaser has objected, and if Seller agrees to cure any such exceptions, Seller shall do so at its sole expense and with all due diligence. Any exceptions to title or the Survey that are not Permitted Exceptions and that Seller agrees to cure shall be

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, at or prior to the Closing, Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, remove all deeds of trust, mortgage, and other monetary liens and encumbrances affecting the Property, and if Seller fails to do so, Seller shall be in default under this Agreement.
(c) Purchaser shall have the right to re-examine the title to the Property at Closing and to object to any defects or encumbrances that have been placed of record on the Property subsequent to the date of Purchaser's initial title report (except for any easements and rights of way which have been caused or approved by Purchaser, which shall be Permitted Exceptions) (such objections being the “Subsequent Objections”). Seller shall cure Subsequent Objections at or prior to Closing and if Seller shall fail to cure them then Purchaser in its sole discretion may: (i) waive the Subsequent Objections and proceed to Closing; (ii) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit; or (iii) declare Seller to be in default under this Agreement and pursue any remedies available hereunder. Seller shall not further encumber the title to the Property after the Effective Date unless (i) Seller obtains Purchaser’s prior written consent to such encumbrance, which consent may be granted or withheld in Purchaser’s discretion, or (ii) such encumbrance will be released or removed by Seller, at Seller’s sole expense, at or prior to the Closing.

within thirty (30) days after the Closing. Seller shall also execute such affidavits and other instruments as reasonably required by Purchaser’s counsel or the Title Company, at any time within the six (6) months after Closing hereunder, and for the better conveying, transferring, assuring, and confirming the conveyance of title to the Property to the Purchaser in accordance with § 4 hereof.

Breach. |
(a) If Seller shall default under any of the provisions of this Agreement and such default is not cured by Seller within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice from Purchaser of such default (provided, such notice of default and cure period shall not apply to the failure of Seller to perform its obligations on the date of the Closing), Purchaser may, at its option, either: (i) terminate this Agreement and have the Deposit returned by the Settlement Company, in which event the parties shall have no further rights or liabilities one to the other hereunder; or (ii) seek the equitable remedy of specific performance (provided that if Seller’s breach or default makes specific performance unavailable Purchaser shall have any and all remedies available at law or equity).
