In addition, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with respect to no more than two Properties (the "Property Termination Right") by sending written notice to Seller during the Due Diligence Period in the event that Buyer discovers a material problem in the environmental or physical condition of such Property.

There shall be no closing adjustments between the parties for Taxes and Assessments not yet due and payable at Closing unless Tenant is not responsible for all such Taxes and Assessments due in accordance with the provisions of the Lease.

 

(b)          All rents shall be prorated as of the Closing Date with Buyer being credited for rent attributable to the day of Closing through and including the last day of the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs; provided, however, if the Closing Date shall occur within ten (10) days of the end of the month in which Closing occurs, Buyer and Seller agree that Buyer shall be credited with the following month’s rent at Closing and Seller shall be entitled to retain any rents received by Seller that are attributable to the month following the month in which the Closing Date occurs and Buyer agrees to the extent that it receives any rent attributable to such month which was adjusted at Closing, it will refund such amount to Seller as soon as reasonably possible.

(a)          Buyer shall order a title commitment (the “Title Commitment”) from Escrow Agent and a survey and a zoning report for the Property promptly after the date hereof. All matters shown in the Title Commitment, survey or zoning report (“Title Matters”) with respect to which Buyer fails to object prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period shall be deemed “Permitted Exceptions”. However, Permitted Exceptions shall not include any mechanic’s lien or any monetary lien, or any deeds of trust, mortgage, or other loan documents secured by the Property to the extent filed as a result of any actions or omissions of Seller (collectively, “Liens”). Except to the extent required to be removed by Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Leases, Seller shall be required to cure or remove all Liens (by payment, bond deposit or indemnity acceptable to Escrow Agent). To the extent that any such Liens are the obligations of Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Leases, Seller shall immediately give written notice to Tenant to remove such Liens. Seller agrees to remove or cure any objections of Buyer which are of a nature that are capable of being cured with reasonable efforts and nominal expense prior to Closing. Seller shall have no obligation to cure any Title Matter objected to, except as aforesaid, provided Seller notifies Buyer of any objections which Seller elects not to remove or cure within five (5) business days following receipt of Buyer’s objections. In the event that Seller refuses to remove or cure any objections, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller given within five (5) business days after receipt of Seller’s notice, upon which termination the Earnest Money (minus the Estoppel Fees, as defined in Section 6(c) below, which shall be paid to Seller) shall be returned to Buyer and neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein. If any materially adverse Title Matter not revealed in the Title Commitment is discovered by Buyer or by the Escrow Agent and is added to the Title Commitment by the Escrow Agent at or prior to Closing (“New Title Matter”), Buyer shall have until the earlier of (i) ten (10) days after the Buyer’s receipt of the updated, revised Title Commitment showing the New Title Matter, together with a legible copy of any such new matter, or (ii) the date of Closing, to provide Seller with written notice of its objection to any such New Title Matter (an “Objection”). If Seller does not remove or cure such Objection prior to the date of Closing, Buyer may terminate this Agreement, in which case the Earnest Money (minus the Estoppel Fees which shall be paid to Seller) shall be returned to Buyer, and to the extent such materially adverse Title matter was caused by any act or omission of Seller, Seller shall reimburse Buyer for all out of pocket costs and expenses incurred hereunder, and neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein.

 

 
 

 

(b)          Within five (5) days following the Effective Date, Seller shall provide to Buyer copies of the following documents and materials pertaining to each Property to the extent within Seller’s possession or reasonably obtainable by Seller or Seller’s counsel: (i) a complete copy of all leases affecting the Property and all amendments thereto and of all material correspondence relating thereto; (ii) a copy of all surveys and site plans of the Property, including without limitation any as-built survey obtained or delivered to tenants of the Property in connection with its construction; (iii) a copy of all architectural plans and specifications and construction drawings and contracts for improvements located on the Property; (iv) a copy of Seller’s owner’s title insurance policies relating to the Property; (v) a copy of the certificate of occupancy and zoning reports for the Property; and of all governmental permits/approvals; (vi) a copy of all environmental, engineering and physical condition reports for the Property; (vii) copies of the Property’s real estate tax bills for the current and prior two (2) tax years or, if the Property has been owned by Seller for less than two (2) tax years, for the period of ownership; (viii) a copy of each tenant sales reports for the previous twenty four (24) calendar months; (ix) the operating statements of the Property for the twenty four (24) calendar months immediately preceding the Effective Date or if the Tenant has been operating for less than twenty-four (24) months, for the period of operation; (x) all service contracts and insurance policies which affect the Property, if any; (xi) a copy of all remaining warranties relating to the improvements constructed on the Property, including without limitation any roof warranties; and (xii) a written inventory of all items of personal property to be conveyed to Buyer, if any (the “Due Diligence Materials”). Seller shall deliver any other documents relating to each Property reasonably requested by Buyer, to the extent within Seller’s possession or reasonably obtainable by Seller or Seller’s counsel, as soon as reasonably available following such request. Additionally, during the term of this Agreement, subject to the Tenant’s rights under the Leases, Buyer, its agents and designees, shall have the right to enter the Property for the purposes of inspecting the Property, conducting soil tests, and making surveys, mechanical and structural engineering studies, inspecting construction, and conducting any other investigations and inspections as Buyer may reasonably require to assess the condition and suitability of the Property; provided, however, that such activities by or on behalf of Buyer on the Property shall not damage the Property nor interfere with construction on the Property or the conduct of business by Tenant under the Lease; and provided further, however, that Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all claims or damages to the extent resulting from the activities of Buyer on the Property, and Buyer shall repair any and all damage caused, in whole or in part, by Buyer and return the Property to its condition prior to such damage, which obligation shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with the efforts of Buyer and the Buyer’s representatives to inspect the Property. After the Effective Date, Buyer shall be permitted to speak and meet with Tenant in connection with Buyer’s due diligence. Upon signing this agreement, Seller shall provide Buyer with the name of a contact person(s) for the purpose of arranging site visits. Buyer shall give Seller reasonable written notice (which in any event shall not be less than two (2) business days) before entering the Property, and Seller may have a representative present during any and all examinations, inspections and/or studies on the Property. Buyer agrees to require any contractor, inspector or consultant that enters the Property at the request or on behalf of Buyer pursuant to the inspection rights granted in this Section to maintain and to cause any of its subcontractors to maintain and have in effect commercial general liability insurance in commercially reasonable amounts, providing insurance coverage for bodily injury, including death, and property damage, and worker’s compensation insurance if required by law. Buyer shall have the unconditional right, for any reason or no reason, to terminate this Agreement with respect to all of the Property by giving written notice thereof to Seller prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, in which event this Agreement shall terminate, Buyer shall receive a refund of the Earnest Money (less the Estoppel Fee which shall be paid to Seller), and all rights, liabilities and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall expire, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein. After expiration of the Due Diligence Period and Buyer’s failure to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 6(b), the Deposit shall be non-refundable to Buyer except in the event of a default by Seller or as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

 

 
 

 

(c)          Within five (5) days following the Effective Date, Seller shall request Estoppel Certificates certified to Buyer, it’s Lender, successors and assigns (and simultaneously provide Buyer with a copy of such request) and a Waiver of Tenant’s right of first refusal. It shall be a condition of Closing that Seller shall have obtained an estoppel certificate from Tenant in the form attached to the Lease and as Exhibit G (the “Tenant Estoppel Certificate”), and Seller shall use good faith efforts to obtain the same. Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer photocopies or pdf files of the executed estoppel certificates when Seller receives the same. In the event that Buyer terminates this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof, Buyer agrees to reimburse to Seller the fees paid to Tenant to obtain the Tenant Estoppel Certificates (collectively, “Estoppel Fees”). Buyer acknowledges and agrees that such Estoppel Fees will be deducted from the Earnest Money and paid to Seller directly by Escrow Agent.

7.           Risk of Loss/Condemnation. Upon an occurrence of a casualty, condemnation or taking with respect to any Property, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of same. Until Closing, the risk of loss or damage to the Property, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be borne by Seller. In the event all or any portion of any Property is damaged in any casualty or condemned or taken (or notice of any condemnation or taking is issued) so that: (a) Tenant has a right of termination or abatement of rent under the Lease for such Property, or (b) with respect to any casualty, if the cost to repair such casualty would exceed $50,000, or (c) with respect to any condemnation, any Improvements or access to the Property or more than five percent (5%) of the Property is (or will be) condemned or taken, then, Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement with respect to each such Property by providing written notice of such termination to Seller within ten (10) business days after Buyer’s receipt of notice of such condemnation, taking or damage, upon which termination a proportionate part of the Earnest Money shall be returned to the Buyer in accordance with the Purchase Price as set forth on Exhibit A-1 and neither party hereto shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities under this Agreement with respect to such Property, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein. With respect to any condemnation or taking (of any notice thereof), if Buyer does not elect to cancel this Agreement as aforesaid, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price and Seller shall assign to Buyer at the Closing the rights of Seller to the awards, if any, for the condemnation or taking, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep all such awards. With respect to a casualty, if Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement with respect to any such Property or does not have the right to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price and Seller shall assign to Buyer at the Closing the rights of Seller to the proceeds under Seller’s insurance policies covering such Property with respect to such damage or destruction (or pay to Buyer any such proceeds received prior to Closing) and pay to Buyer the amount of any deductible with respect thereto, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep any monies received from such insurance policies.

 

8.           Earnest Money Disbursement. The Earnest Money shall be held by Escrow Agent, in trust, and disposed of only in accordance with the following provisions:

 

(a)          If the Closing occurs, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Earnest Money to, or upon the instructions of, Seller and Buyer on the Closing Date to be applied as part payment of the Purchase Price. If for any reason the Closing does not occur, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Earnest Money to Seller or Buyer only upon receipt of a written demand therefor from such party, subject to the following provisions of this clause (a). Subject to the last sentence of this clause (a), if for any reason the Closing does not occur and either party makes a written demand (the “Demand”) upon Escrow Agent for payment of the Earnest Money, Escrow Agent shall give written notice to the other party of the Demand within one business day after receipt of the Demand. If Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection from the other party to the proposed payment within five (5) business days after the giving of such notice by Escrow Agent, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make the payment set forth in the Demand. If Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within such period, Escrow Agent shall continue to hold such amount until otherwise directed by written instructions signed by Seller and Buyer or a final judgment of a court. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (a) if Buyer delivers a written notice of termination to Seller and Escrow Agent prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period as provided in Section 6(b) above, then Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Earnest Money to Buyer without the necessity of delivering any notice to, or receiving any notice from Seller.

 

(b)          The parties acknowledge that Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that Escrow Agent shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that Escrow Agent shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) incurred by Seller or Buyer resulting from Escrow Agent’s mistake of law respecting Escrow Agent scope or nature of its duties. Seller and Buyer shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and against all liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) incurred in connection with the performance of Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by Escrow Agent in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent has executed this Agreement in the place indicated on the signature page hereof in order to confirm that Escrow Agent has received and shall hold the Earnest Money in escrow, and shall disburse the Earnest Money pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.

 

 
 

 

9.           Default

 

(a)          In the event that Seller is ready, willing and able to close in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof, and Buyer defaults in any of its obligations undertaken in this Agreement, Seller shall be entitled to, as its sole and exclusive remedy to either: (i) if Buyer is willing to proceed to Closing, waive such default and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof; or (ii) declare this Agreement to be terminated, and Seller shall be entitled to immediately receive the Earnest Money as liquidated damages as and for Seller’s sole remedy. Upon such termination, neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Seller and Buyer agree that (a) actual damages due to Buyer’s default hereunder would be difficult and inconvenient to ascertain and that such amount is not a penalty and is fair and reasonable in light of all relevant circumstances, (b) the amount specified as liquidated damages is not disproportionate to the damages that would be suffered and the costs that would be incurred by Seller as a result of having withdrawn the Property from the market, and (c) Buyer desires to limit its liability under this Agreement to the amount of the Earnest Money paid in the event Buyer fails to complete Closing. Seller hereby waives any right to recover the balance of the Purchase Price, or any part thereof, and the right to pursue any other remedy permitted at law or in equity against Buyer. In no event under this Section or otherwise shall Buyer be liable to Seller for any punitive, speculative or consequential damages.

 

(b)          In the event of a default in the obligations herein taken by Seller, or in the event of the failure of a condition precedent set forth in Section 13 of this Agreement, with respect to any or all of the Properties, Buyer may, as its sole and exclusive remedy, either: (i) waive any unsatisfied conditions and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof; (ii) terminate this Agreement with respect to any or all Properties by delivering written notice thereof to Seller no later than Closing, upon which termination the corresponding amount of the Earnest Money shall be refunded to Buyer, Seller shall pay to Buyer all of the out-of-pocket third party costs and expenses incurred by Buyer as to such Property or Properties in connection with this Agreement, (not to exceed $15,000.00) (except as provided in the last paragraph of Section 13) which return and payment shall operate to terminate this Agreement and release Seller and Buyer from any and all liability hereunder, except those which are specifically stated herein to survive any termination hereof; (iii) enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder; or (iv) by notice to Seller given on or before the Closing Date, extend the Closing Date for a period of up to thirty (30) days (the “Closing Extension Period”) to permit Seller to remedy any such default, and the “Closing Date” shall be moved to the last day of the Closing Extension Period. If Buyer so extends the Closing Date, then Seller may, but shall not be obligated to, cause said conditions to be satisfied during the Closing Extension Period. If Seller does not cause said conditions to be satisfied during the Closing Extension Period, then Buyer shall have the remedies set forth in Section 9(b)(i) through (iii) above except that the term “Closing” shall read “Extended Closing”. Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and have waived, released and forever relinquished any right Buyer may now have or may later acquire to seek specific performance or to place any liens or encumbrances including a notice of lis pendens on the Property if Buyer fails to deliver to Seller written notice of its intent to assert a cause of action for specific performance within thirty (30) days following the scheduled date for Closing (or Extended Closing, if applicable), or, having given such notice, fails to file a lawsuit asserting such cause of action in the proper court within thirty (30) days following the scheduled date for Closing(or Extended Closing, if applicable).

 

 
 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of an intentional default of Seller hereunder, Buyer shall, in addition to the foregoing remedies, be permitted to pursue any and all rights and remedies available to Buyer at law or in equity.

 

10.         Closing. The Closing shall consist of the execution and delivery of documents by Seller and Buyer with respect to each Property as set forth below, and delivery by Buyer to Seller of the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Seller shall deliver to Escrow Agent for the benefit of Buyer at Closing the following executed documents for each Property:

 

(a)          A Special Warranty Deed substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (subject to necessary modifications based on local law and practice);

 

(b)          An Assignment and Assumption of Lease and Security Deposits, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D;

 

(c)          A Bill of Sale for the personal property, if any, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E;

 

(d)          An Assignment of Contracts, Permits, Licenses and Warranties in the form of Exhibit F;

 

(e)          An original Tenant Estoppel Certificate dated no earlier than 30 days prior to the date of Closing. In addition, the business terms of the Tenant Estoppel Certificate must be in accordance with and not contradict the Lease. If the Lease and any amendments, bearing the original signatures of the landlord and tenant thereunder have not been delivered to Buyer previously, a copy thereof confirming that the copy is true, correct and complete shall be attached to the Tenant Estoppel;

 

(f)           To the extent obtained by Seller, estoppel certificates with respect to reciprocal easement agreements as may be reasonably requested by Buyer;

 

(g)          A settlement statement setting forth the Purchase Price, all prorations and other adjustments to be made pursuant to the terms hereof, and the funds required for Closing as contemplated hereunder;

(i)          Good standing certificates and corporate resolutions or member or partner consents, as applicable, and such other documents as reasonably requested by Escrow Agent;

 

(j)          To the extent in Seller’s possession, originals of the Warranties (as hereinafter defined), if any;

 

(k)         A certificate pursuant to Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the regulations issued pursuant thereto, certifying the non foreign status of Seller;

 

(l)          An owner’s title affidavit as to mechanics’ liens and possession and other matters in customary form reasonably acceptable to Escrow Agent;

 

(m)        An original SNDA fully executed and notarized by Tenant, if timely requested by Buyer;

 

(n)         Letter to Tenant in form of Exhibit H attached hereto;

 

(o)         A certificate of insurance or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Buyer memorializing and confirming that Tenant is then maintaining policies of insurance (or self-insuring as permitted by the terms of the Lease) of the types and in the amounts required by the Lease, which shall name Buyer and its mortgagee as additional insured parties and/or as loss payees and/or mortgagees, as appropriate, as their respective interests may appear; and

 

(p)          Such other instruments as are reasonably required by Buyer or Escrow Agent to close the escrow and consummate the purchase of the Property in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

At Closing, Buyer shall instruct Escrow Agent to deliver the Earnest Money to Seller which shall be applied to the Purchase Price, shall deliver the balance of the Purchase Price to Seller and shall execute and deliver execution counterparts of the closing documents referenced in clauses (b) and (g) above. Each party shall have a one time right to extend the Closing for up to fifteen (15) days upon written notice to the other to be received not less than five (5) days prior to the date scheduled for the Closing. If either party timely exercises this right to extend, any document that Seller is obligated to provide that is “time sensitive” does not need to be provided again by Seller. The Closing shall be held through the mail by delivery of the closing documents to the Escrow Agent on or prior to the Closing or such other place or manner as the parties hereto may mutually agree.

 

11.         Representations by Seller. For the purpose of inducing Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the sale and purchase of the Property in accordance herewith, each Seller, respectively, makes the following representations and warranties to Buyer as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date with respect to the Property owned by each Seller:

 

 
 

 

(a)          Seller is duly organized (or formed), validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of organization, and to the extent required by law, the State in which the Property is located (or shall be prior to Closing if not as of the date hereof). Seller has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and all closing documents to be executed by Seller, and to perform all of Seller’s obligations hereunder and thereunder. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement and all closing documents to be executed by Seller, nor the performance of the obligations of Seller hereunder or thereunder will result in the violation of any law or any provision of the organizational documents of Seller or will conflict with any order or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality of any nature by which Seller is bound;

 

(b)          Seller has not received any written notice of any current or pending litigation, condemnation proceeding or tax appeals affecting Seller or the Property and Seller does not have any knowledge of any pending litigation or tax appeals against Seller or the Property; Seller has not initiated, nor is Seller participating in, any action for a change or modification in the current subdivision, site plan, zoning or other land use permits for the Property;

 

(c)          Seller has not entered into any contracts, subcontracts or agreements affecting the Property which will be binding upon Buyer after the Closing other than the Lease, the Permitted Exceptions and any other contracts or agreements delivered to Buyer within the Due Diligence Period;

 

(d)          Except for violations cured or remedied on or before the date hereof, Seller has not received any written notice from (or delivered any notice to) any governmental authority regarding any violation of any law applicable to the Property;

 

(e)          Seller has fee simple title to the Real Property subject to the Permitted Exceptions and Seller is the sole owner of the entire lessor’s interest in the Lease;

 

(f)          With respect to the Leases: (i) the Leases forwarded to Buyer under Section 6(b)(i) are true, correct and complete copies of the Leases; (ii) the Leases are in full force and effect and Seller has not received written notice of any default thereunder; (iii) no brokerage or leasing commissions or other compensation is or will be due or payable to any person, firm, corporation or other entity with respect to or on account of the current term of the Leases or any extension or renewal thereof; (iv) Seller has no outstanding obligation to provide Tenant with an allowance to construct, or to construct at its own expense, any tenant improvements; and (v) the rent for each Property is as set forth on Exhibit A-2;

 

(g)          There are no occupancy rights, leases or tenancies affecting the Property other than the Lease. Except as provided in the Lease, neither this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby is subject to any first right of refusal or other purchase right in favor of any other person or entity; and apart from this Agreement, Seller has not entered into any written agreements for the purchase or sale of the Property, or any interest therein which has not been terminated;

 

(h)          The transactions contemplated hereby either (i) will not constitute a sale of all or substantially all the assets of Seller, or (ii) if such transaction does constitute a sale of all or substantially all the assets of any Seller, Seller shall provide to Buyer at Closing an excise tax lien waiver or such other reasonably obtainable instruments evidencing compliance with laws or payment of taxes to the extent required by the law of the relevant state; and

 

 
 

 

(i)          To Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the Leases and/or any environmental reports and all other documentation previously delivered by Seller to Buyer, no hazardous substances have been generated, stored, released, or disposed of on or about the Property in violation of any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Property which regulates or controls matters relating to the environment or public health or safety (collectively, “Environmental Laws”). Except as set forth in documentation previously delivered by Seller to Buyer, Seller has not received any written notice from (nor delivered any notice to) any federal, state, county, municipal or other governmental department, agency or authority concerning any petroleum product or other hazardous substance discharge or seepage. For purposes of this Subsection, “hazardous substances” shall mean any substance or material which is defined or deemed to be hazardous or toxic pursuant to any Environmental Laws. To Seller’s knowledge, there are no underground storage tanks located on the Property; and

 

(j)          Exhibit I attached hereto is a true, correct and complete listing of all warranties in effect for the Property (the Warranties”).

 

The representations and warranties of Seller shall survive Closing for a period of six (6) months. “Seller’s knowledge,” as used in this Agreement means the current actual knowledge of Judy Lawson and Marcel Arsenault, without any duty of inquiry or investigation.

 

In the event that Buyer discovers prior to the Closing that any representation or warranty of Seller set forth in this Agreement is untrue or inaccurate as of the Closing but nevertheless elects to close the purchase of the Property, Buyer shall conclusively be deemed to have waived any claim it may otherwise have against Seller predicated on such untrue or inaccurate warranty.

 

If after the Effective Date, but before the Closing, Seller learns of facts or circumstances which make any of the foregoing representations or warranties materially inaccurate, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing of such facts or circumstances after learning of the same and Buyer may elect, within five (5) business days after receipt of Seller’s notice but no later than the Closing, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent. If Buyer fails to deliver such a termination notice, then Buyer shall be deemed to have: (i) waived its right to terminate this Agreement, (ii) elected to acquire the Property on the terms set forth in this Agreement and (iii) waived all remedies at law or in equity with respect to any inaccuracy in the representations or warranties resulting from the facts or circumstance disclosed by Seller in its notice to Buyer.

 

12.         Representations by Buyer. Buyer represents and warrants to, and covenants with, Seller as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date as follows:

 

(a)          Buyer is duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware, is authorized to consummate the transaction set forth herein and fulfill all of its obligations hereunder and under all closing documents to be executed by Buyer, and has all necessary power to execute and deliver this Agreement and all closing documents to be executed by Buyer, and to perform all of Buyer’s obligations hereunder and thereunder. This Agreement and all closing documents to be executed by Buyer have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate or other required action on the part of Buyer and are the valid and legally binding obligation of Buyer, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement and all closing documents to be executed by Buyer, nor the performance of the obligations of Buyer hereunder or thereunder will result in the violation of any law or any provision of the organizational documents of Buyer or will conflict with any order or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality of any nature by which Buyer is bound.

 

 
 

 

The representations and warranties of Buyer shall survive Closing for a period of six (6) months.

 

13.         Conditions Precedent to Buyer’s Obligations. Buyer’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price, and to accept title to the Property, shall be subject to compliance by Seller with the following conditions precedent for each Property on and as of the date of Closing:

 

(a)          Seller shall deliver to Buyer on or before the Closing the items set forth in Section 10 above;

 

(b)          Buyer shall receive from Escrow Agent or any other title insurer approved by Buyer in its judgment and discretion, a current ALTA owner’s form of title insurance policy, or irrevocable and unconditional binder to issue the same, with extended coverage for the Real Property in the amount of the Purchase Price, dated, or updated to, the date of the Closing, insuring, or committing to insure, at its ordinary premium rates Buyer’s good and marketable title in fee simple to the Real Property and otherwise in such form and with such endorsements as provided in the title commitment approved by Buyer pursuant to Section 6 hereof and subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (the “Title Policy”);

 

(c)          Tenant shall be in possession of the premises demised under the Leases, open for business to the public and paying full and unabated rent under the Leases and Tenant shall not have assigned or sublet any of the Property;

 

(d)          Subject to the last two paragraphs of Section 11, the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement shall be true in all material respects at and as of the date of Closing as if such representations and warranties were made at and as of the Closing, and Seller shall have performed and complied in all material respects with all covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by Seller prior to or at the Closing;

 

(e)          Seller shall have delivered to Buyer a written waiver by Tenant of any right of first refusal, right of first offer or other purchase option that Tenant has pursuant to the Leases to purchase the Property from Seller; and

 

(f)          Seller shall have made all contributions, payments and/or reimbursements and completed any and all work required by any governmental authority in connection with the construction and development of the Property, including, without limitation, as required by any variance or site plan approval.

 

 
 

 

In the event that the foregoing conditions precedent have not been satisfied as of Closing, Buyer shall have the rights and remedies set forth in Section 9(b) of this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, in no event shall the provisions in Section 9(b)(ii) (with respect to Seller’s obligations to pay Buyer’s out of pocket expenses thereunder) apply in the event the conditions set forth in Sections 13(b) or 13(c) are not satisfied as of Closing, or with respect to 13(e), if Tenant has not elected to exercise any purchase option it may have under the Lease.

 

14.         Conditions Precedent to Seller’s Obligations. Seller’s obligation to deliver title to the Property shall be subject to compliance by Buyer with the following conditions precedent on and as of the date of Closing:

 

(a)          Buyer shall deliver to Escrow Agent on the Closing Date the remainder of the Purchase Price, subject to adjustment of such amount pursuant to Section 4 hereof; and

 

(b)          The representations and warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement shall be true in all material respects at and as of the date of Closing as if such representations and warranties were made at and as of the Closing, and Buyer shall have performed and complied in all material respects with all covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by Buyer prior to or at the Closing.

 

15.         Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein, all notices and other communications which may be or are required to be given or made by any party to the other in connection herewith shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been properly given and received on the date: (i) delivered by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail (e.g. email), (ii) delivered in person, (iii) deposited in the United States mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, or (iv) deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, to the addresses set out in Section 1, or at such other addresses as specified by written notice delivered in accordance herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Buyer agree that notice may be given on behalf of each party by the counsel for each party and notice by such counsel in accordance with this Section 15 shall constitute notice under this Agreement.

 

16.         Seller Covenants. Seller agrees that it, with respect to each Property: (a) shall continue to operate and manage the Property in the same manner in which Seller has previously operated and maintained the Property and (b) shall not, without Buyer’s prior written consent, which, after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period may be withheld in Buyer’s sole discretion: (i) amend the Lease in any manner, nor enter into any new lease, license agreement or other occupancy agreement with respect to the Property; (ii) consent to an assignment of the Lease or a sublease of the premises demised thereunder or a termination or surrender thereof; (iii) terminate the Lease nor release any guarantor of or security for the Lease unless required by the express terms of the Lease; and/or (iv) cause, permit or consent to an alteration of the premises demised thereunder (unless such consent is non-discretionary). Seller shall promptly inform Buyer in writing of any material event adversely affecting the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Property, whether insured or not.

 

17.         Performance on Business Days. A "business day" is a day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday recognized by the Federal Government. Furthermore, if any date upon which or by which action is required under this Agreement is not a business day, then the date for such action shall be extended to the first day that is after such date and is a business day.

 

 
 

 

18.         Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the sole and entire agreement among the parties hereto and no modification of this Agreement shall be binding unless in writing and signed by all parties hereto. No prior agreement or understanding pertaining to the subject matter hereof (including, without limitation, any letter of intent executed prior to this Agreement) shall be valid or of any force or effect from and after the date hereof.

 

19.         Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall be invalid or unenforceable, at any time or to any extent, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby. Each provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law

 

20.         No Representations or Warranties. With the sole exception of the representations set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement, this Agreement is made without representation or warranty of any kind by Seller; Seller makes no representation or warranty of any kind with regard to the physical condition of the Property or any component thereof, with regard to any restrictions, requirements, costs or constraints that may be associated with the Property, with regard to the suitability of the Property for Buyer’s purposes or with regard to the accuracy or completeness of any of the Due Diligence Documents (other than the Lease) furnished or made available to Buyer (including, without limitation, any environmental or structural studies or reports), it being the parties’ express understanding and agreement that Buyer shall fully inspect the Property and all aspects thereof during the Due Diligence Period and prior to Closing, and that Buyer will rely solely on its own inspection in determining the physical condition and other features of the Property, any restrictions, requirements, costs or constraints that may be associated with the Property, and whether the Property is suitable for Buyer’s intended purposes; and Buyer will acquire the Property in “AS IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS” condition. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer, for itself and its successors and assigns, releases Seller and Seller’s partners, agents, employees, managers, members, brokers, contractors and representatives from, and waives any and all causes of action or claims against any of such persons for, (i) any and all liability attributable to any physical condition of or at the Property, including, without limitation, the presence on, under or about the Property of any hazardous materials; and (ii) any and all liability resulting from the failure of the Property to comply with any applicable laws, including, without limitation, any Environmental Law. This Section 20 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing.

 

21.         Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the State or Commonwealth in which the Property is located, without giving effect to any state's conflict of laws principles.

 

 
 

 

22.         Tax-Deferred Exchange. Buyer and Seller respectively acknowledge that the purchase and sale of the Property contemplated hereby may be part of a separate exchange (an “Exchange”) being made by each party pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated with respect thereto. In the event that either party (the “Exchanging Party”) desires to effectuate such an exchange, then the other party (the “Non-Exchanging Party”) agrees to cooperate fully with the Exchanging Party in order that the Exchanging Party may effectuate such an exchange; provided, however, that with respect to such Exchange (a) all additional costs, fees and expenses related thereto shall be the sole responsibility of, and borne by, the Exchanging Party; (b) the Non-Exchanging Party shall incur no additional liability as a result of such exchange; (c) the contemplated exchange shall not delay any of the time periods or other obligations of the Exchanging Party hereby, and without limiting the foregoing, the scheduled date for Closing shall not be delayed or adversely affected by reason of the Exchange; (d) the accomplishment of the Exchange shall not be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to the Exchanging Party's obligations under the Agreement; and (e) the Non-Exchanging Party shall not be required to hold title to any land other than the Property for purposes of the Exchange. The Exchanging Party agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the Non-Exchanging Party harmless from any and all liability, damage or cost, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees that may result from Non-Exchanging Party's cooperation with the Exchange. The Non-Exchanging Party shall not, by reason of the Exchange, (i) have its rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any representations, warranties and covenants made by the Exchanging Party in this Agreement (including but not limited to any warranties of title, which, if Seller is the Exchanging Party, shall remain warranties of Seller), or in any of the closing documents (including but not limited to any warranties of title, which, if Seller is the Exchanging Party, shall remain warranties of Seller) contemplated hereby, adversely affected or diminished in any manner, or (ii) be responsible for compliance with or deemed to have warranted to the Exchanging Party that the Exchange complies with Section 1031 of the Code.

 

23.         Broker’s Commissions. Buyer and Seller each hereby represent that, except for the Broker listed herein, there are no other brokers involved or that have a right to proceeds in this transaction. Seller shall be responsible for payment of commissions to the Broker pursuant to a separate written agreement executed by Seller. Seller and Buyer each hereby agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from all loss, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees at both trial and appellate levels) incurred by the other as a result of any claim arising out of the acts of the indemnifying party (or others on its behalf) for a commission, finder's fee or similar compensation made by any broker, finder or any party who claims to have dealt with such party (except that Buyer shall have no obligations hereunder with respect to any claim by Broker). The representations, warranties and indemnity obligations contained in this section shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

24.         Assignment. Buyer may not assign any of its rights or delegate or cause to be assumed any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller; provided, however, that Buyer may assign its rights under this Agreement to an affiliate of Buyer without Seller’s consent, but with written notice to Seller given at least seven (7) days prior to Closing; provided further that in the event of such an assignment (i) the assignee assumes Buyer’s obligations in writing and (ii) Buyer will not be released from its obligations hereunder. Any assignment or transfer in violation of the terms of this Agreement shall be absolutely null and void and shall constitute a default under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall apply to, be binding in all respects upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of the Parties. Buyer is entering into this Agreement for and on behalf of related special purpose entities as set forth on Exhibit A-1 (each an “Approved Assignee”) and intends to assign to each respective Approved Assignee its rights hereunder prior to Closing.

 

 
 

 

25.         Attorneys’ Fees. In any action between Buyer and Seller as a result of failure to perform or a default under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party, and the other party shall pay to the prevailing party, the prevailing party’s attorneys’ fees and disbursements and court costs incurred in such action.

 

26.         Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to each of Buyer’s and Seller’s obligations hereunder.

 

27.         Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become a binding agreement when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party. Signatures on this Agreement which are transmitted by electronically shall be valid for all purposes, however any party shall deliver an original signature on this Agreement to the other party upon request.

 

28.         Anti-Terrorism. Neither Buyer or Seller, nor any of their affiliates, are in violation of any Anti-Terrorism Law (as hereinafter defined) or engages in or conspires to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law. “Anti-Terrorism Laws” shall mean any laws relating to terrorism or money laundering, including: Executive Order No. 13224; the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56, as the same has been, or may hereafter be, renewed, extended, amended or replaced; the applicable laws comprising or implementing the Bank Secrecy Act; and the applicable laws administered by the United States Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Asset Control (as any of the foregoing may from time to time be amended, renewed, extended, or replaced).

 

29.         No Personal Liability. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement is entered into by formal entities and the parties hereby agree that no individual officer, member, manager, or representative of Seller or Buyer shall have any personal liability under this Agreement.

 

26.         Confidentiality. Buyer acknowledges that it is in the best interest of Buyer and Seller to maintain the confidentiality of the financial terms and provisions of this Agreement and the materials relating thereto. Except as otherwise provided herein, neither Seller nor Buyer shall disclose any of the financial terms or provisions of this Agreement prior to the Closing to any person or entity not a party to this Agreement or reasonably necessary to assist in the investigation of, and determination whether to acquire and/or invest in, the Property.

 

Buyer shall not disclose, and shall not authorize any Related Person (as defined below) to disclose, to any person (other than the persons described below or as required by applicable law) any information relating to the Property received directly or indirectly from Seller or through Buyer's inspection and testing processes, unless and until the contemplated transaction shall close. Buyer may make a disclosure of appropriate information to any attorney, engineering or other consultant, accountant, or agent or employee of the Buyer and to any person that is or may be providing equity or debt (either secured or unsecured) financing to Buyer (such persons being called “Related Persons”), provided the Buyer has advised the Related Persons of the confidential nature of the information and the existence of this agreement against disclosure, and, if the Related Person is not regularly employed or retained by the Buyer, such advice shall be in writing and shall also state that the Related Person is not authorized to disclose any of such information, except as provided above.

 

 
 

 

27.         Return of Due Diligence Documents. If this Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing for any reason, then promptly following such termination, Buyer shall return to Seller, within five (5) business days after termination, the Due Diligence Documents and, except in the event of termination as a result of a Seller default, copies of all third party reports and studies relating to the Property and received by Buyer, but without any representation or warranty by Buyer and without any obligation to deliver any financial documents deemed by Buyer to be proprietary or confidential.

 

28.         Solicitation. Seller shall have the right to solicit backup offers and enter into discussions, negotiations, or any other communications concerning or related to the sale of the Property with any third party; provided, however, that such communications are subject to the terms of this Agreement, and that Seller shall not enter into any contract or binding agreement with a third party for the sale of the Property unless such agreement is contingent on the termination of this Agreement without the Property having been conveyed to Buyer.
