  (ii) Taxes.

Unmetered water charges shall be apportioned on the basis of the charges therefor for the same period of the preceding calendar year, but applying the current rate thereto. This provision shall survive Closing.

  (v) Miscellaneous Revenues.

  (b) [Intentionally Omitted].
     
  (c) [Intentionally Omitted].
     
  (d) Re-Adjustment. In the event any prorations or apportionments made under this Section 5 shall prove to be incorrect for any reason, then any party shall be entitled to an adjustment to correct the same. Any item that cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and reprorated when the information is available. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, all reprorations contemplated by this Agreement shall be completed within six (6) months after Closing (subject to extension solely as necessary due to the unavailability of final information but in no event to exceed one (1) year after Closing). The obligations of Seller and Buyer under this Section 5(a) shall survive the Closing.
     
  (e) Transaction Costs. Buyer and Seller agree to comply with all real estate transfer and recordation tax laws applicable to the sale of the Property. At Closing, Seller shall pay or cause to be paid (i) one-half (1/2) of all escrow charges and (ii) the transaction costs allocated to Seller on Schedule 5(e). At Closing, Buyer shall pay

Section 6. Examination of Property. Seller and Buyer hereby agree as follows:

 

  (a) Title Examination. Buyer shall furnish to Seller no later than eight (8) Business Days prior to the expiration of the Examination Period a written statement specifying any defects in title, or any other matter that would be disclosed by a current, accurate survey of the Real Property and Improvements, including, without limitation, the Survey (the “Objections”), and any such defect that Buyer fails to timely raise as an Objection shall be conclusively deemed waived by Buyer. Seller shall notify Buyer within three (3) Business Days after receipt of the Objections whether Seller will cure the Objections. If Seller does not agree (or is deemed to not agree) to cure the Objections, Buyer shall have the right, by written notice given to Seller and Title Insurer prior to the expiration of the Examination Period, either to (a) waive the Objections and close title without abatement or reduction of the Purchase Price, or (b) terminate this Agreement and obtain a refund of the Earnest Money (the “Initial Title Termination Right”). If Buyer fails to elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice given to Seller prior to the expiration of the Examination Period, then Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have elected to waive the Objections and close title in accordance with this Agreement. If Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement by written notice given to Seller prior to the expiration of the Examination Period, the Earnest Money shall be returned to Buyer, and upon such return, except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement and all rights and obligations of the respective parties hereunder shall be null and void except the indemnifications and other matters deemed to survive the termination of this Agreement. If Buyer fails to deliver the Objections to Seller prior to the expiration of the Examination Period, as same may be extended as permitted in this Agreement, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to any defect set forth in the aforesaid Title Report and Survey (or any other matter that would be disclosed by a current, accurate survey of the Real Property and Improvements). If at any time after the expiration of the Examination Period, any update to a Title Report discloses any additional item which was not disclosed on any version of or update to a Title Report delivered to Buyer during the Examination Period and has a material adverse effect on the ownership, use or operation of the Property (the “New Exception”), Buyer shall have a period of five (5) Business Days from the date of its receipt of such update (the “New Exception Review Period”) to review and notify Seller in writing of Buyer’s approval or disapproval of the New Exception. Seller shall not voluntarily file or record any New Exception without the prior express written consent of Buyer. Otherwise, if Buyer disapproves of the New Exception, Seller may, in its sole discretion, notify Buyer as to whether it is willing to cure the New Exception. If Seller fails to deliver a notice to Buyer within three (3) Business Days after the expiration of the New Exception Review Period, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the New Exception. If Buyer is dissatisfied with Seller’s response, or lack thereof, Buyer may, as its exclusive remedy, elect either: (a) terminate this Agreement by notice given to Seller within five (5) Business Days after Seller’s three (3) Business Day notice period noted above, the Earnest Money shall be returned to Buyer and, and upon such return, except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement and all rights and obligations of the respective parties hereunder shall be null and void, except for the indemnifications and obligations expressly surviving the termination of this Agreement or Closing, or (b) to waive the New Exception and proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without any reduction in the Purchase Price, in which event such New Exception shall be a Permitted Exception. If Buyer fails to notify Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing sentence within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of the New Exception Review Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waive any objections to the New Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be obligated at Closing to cause the release or discharge of (i) any lien encumbering the Property and voluntarily created by Seller that is not a Permitted Exception that may be removed by the payment of a sum of money (each, a “Monetary Encumbrance”), and (ii) any title exceptions (other than Permitted Exceptions) affecting the Property that are knowingly and intentionally created by Seller through the execution by Seller of one or more instruments creating, granting or consenting to such title exceptions created by Seller on or after the Effective Date (each, a “Post-Effective Date Voluntary Encumbrance” and, together with a Monetary Encumbrance, each a “Mandatory Cure Lien”). In the event such Mandatory Cure Lien is bonded over by Seller or others in a manner that is insured under the Title Policy at or prior to the Closing or if Seller escrows sufficient funds with the Title Insurer or provides an indemnity acceptable to the Title Insurer such that it is omitted from the Title Policy (or is otherwise affirmatively insured over by the Title Insurer), then Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied the provisions of this sentence. The parties acknowledge and agree that, if Seller has not otherwise paid any such Mandatory Cure Lien prior to Closing, Escrow Agent shall apply all or any portion of Seller’s net proceeds from the Purchase Price to cause the release of any Post-Effective Date Voluntary Encumbrance or any Monetary Encumbrance, as applicable. Except as expressly set forth in this Section 6(a), nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to require Seller to take or bring any action or proceeding or any other steps to remove any title exception or to expend any moneys therefore, or shall Buyer have any right of action against Seller, at law or in equity, for Seller’s inability to convey its fee simple absolute title and interest in the Property subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

  (b) Due Diligence. Seller and [***], a Tennessee corporation Affiliated with Buyer are parties to that certain Access Agreement dated May 3, 2021, as amended on the date hereof (the “Access Agreement”). Seller and Buyer agree to execute and deliver the amendment to the Access Agreement on or before the date hereof. The Access Agreement has been or will be assigned by [***] to Buyer and Seller has consented to such assignment. Section 4 of Access Agreement is amended by deleting said Section and inserting the following in its stead: “4. Term. This Access Agreement shall terminate at Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement (the “Termination Date”).” In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Access Agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail.
     
     Buyer shall have the right to apply for or seek any necessary or desirable federal, state, county or city permits, approvals, licenses or other authorizations or approvals in connection with the Property (including, but not limited to, those related to variances, subdivision maps, lot line adjustments, site plans, and conditional letter of map revisions (together, the “Approvals”) and Seller will not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval to any of the foregoing if Seller’s approval is required; provided, that, in no event, shall any Approval be effective unless and until the Closing shall have occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the granting of any Approval be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligations to the Closing, and Buyer shall satisfy itself as to the availability of any required Approvals prior to the expiration of the Examination Period.
     
  (c) Termination Right. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, Buyer shall have the unconditional right, for any reason or no reason, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Seller prior to the expiration of the Examination Period, as same may be extended as permitted hereunder. In either event (i) this Agreement shall become null and void (except as to the indemnifications and provisions expressly deemed to survive the termination of this Agreement), Buyer shall receive a refund of the Earnest Money, and (iii) all rights, liabilities and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall expire, except as to indemnifications and otherwise set forth herein. If Buyer does not so terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Examination Period to the extent the Examination Date was extended pursuant to this Section 6(c), Buyer conclusively shall be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6(c). Buyer hereby agrees that in the event Buyer does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6(c), the same shall constitute an acknowledgment that Seller has given Buyer every opportunity to consider, inspect and review to its satisfaction the physical, environmental, economic and legal condition of the Property and all files and information in Seller’s possession that Buyer deems material to the purchase of the Property.
     
  (d) Intentionally Omitted.
     
  (e) Violations. Buyer agrees to purchase Seller’s interest in the Property subject to any and all violations and non-compliance of any applicable laws, regulations or ordinances (including, without limitation, any applicable zoning, building or development codes) (including any open or expired building permits) individually or collectively, all such violations and non-compliance are hereinafter referred to as “Violations”) or any condition or state of repair or disrepair or other matter or thing, whether noted or not noted, which, if noted, would result in any Violation being placed on the Property. Seller shall have no duty to remove or comply with or repair any condition, matter or thing, whether or not noted, which, if noted, would result in a Violation being placed on the Property, in each case without any abatement of or credit against the Purchase Price.

Section 15. Default; Breach of Representation

 

  (a) In the event that Buyer (i) shall have made any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any material respect as of the Closing Date and such untrue representation or warranty of Buyer prevents Buyer from purchasing the Property, or (ii) defaults in any of its material obligations undertaken in this Agreement, in either case after fifteen (15) days’ written notice and opportunity to cure (provided that there shall be no notice or cure period with respect to any obligations to be completed on or by the Closing Date), Seller shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedies, 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 all of 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 for those indemnifications and provisions hereof which by their terms expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. Seller and Buyer agree that it is difficult to determine, with any degree of certainty, the loss which Seller would incur in the event of Buyer’s failure to close the purchase of the Property, and the parties have agreed that the amount of the Earnest Money represents a reasonable estimate of such loss and is intended as a liquidated damages provision; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit Buyer’s obligation to pay to Seller reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs of Seller to enforce the provision of this Section 15.
     
  (b) In the event that Seller (i) shall have made any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any material respect, or (ii) defaults in any of its material obligations undertaken in this Agreement, in either case after fifteen (15) days’ written notice and opportunity to cure (provided that there shall be no notice or cure period with respect to any obligations to be completed on or by the Closing Date), Buyer may, either waive such default and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof or may in its sole discretion elect to either (i) terminate this Agreement and direct Escrow Agent to return the Earnest Money to Buyer, which return shall operate to terminate this Agreement and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for all of its expenses with respect to the acquisition of the Property, including reasonable attorneys’ fees in connection with the negotiation, drafting and/or enforcement of this Agreement; provided that such reimbursement shall not exceed $75,000.00, or (ii) to enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligations to close and deliver the Deeds and other closing documents, at Seller’s expense, including attorneys’ fees, in an amount not exceeding $75,000.00; provided that such specific enforcement action must be initiated no later than sixty (60) days following the required Closing Date.
     
  (c) All representations and warranties in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been made as of the Effective Date and the Closing Date and shall survive the Closing for a period of nine (9) months after the Closing (the “Survival Period”). Any right of action for the breach of any representation or warranty contained herein shall not merge with the deed delivered at the Closing but shall survive the Closing for the Survival Period and before the expiration thereof the party claiming a breach must have filed an action in a court of competent jurisdiction, and any warranty and representation not specified in such action shall expire upon the expiration of the Survival Period. Seller and Buyer agree that, following the Closing, subject to the terms of Section 15 hereof, each shall be liable for the direct, but not consequential or punitive, damages resulting from any breach of its representations or warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that: (i) following Closing, the total liability of Seller or Buyer for all such breaches and any matters relating thereto or under any law applicable to the Property or this transaction shall not, in the aggregate, exceed two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price (the “Claim Cap”) (ii) such representations and warranties are personal to Seller and Buyer and may not otherwise be assigned to or enforced by any other Person, other than to an assignee of Buyer in accordance with Section 22 hereof. Buyer and Seller further agree that, following the Closing, no claim may or shall be made against the other for any alleged breach of any representations or warranties made by the other party under or relating to this Agreement unless the amount of such claim or claims, in the aggregate, exceeds Fifty THOUSAND AND no/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Threshold Amount”) (in which event the amount of such valid claims against Seller or Buyer, as applicable, in excess of the Threshold Amount shall be actionable up to, but not in excess of, the Claim Cap).

 

22
