Sellers, KGH and PAC shall supplement each delivery as required by this Section during the term of this Agreement if additional items arise (or such records or documents delivered are amended or modified) or come to the attention of Sellers, KGH or PAC and are in Sellers’, KGH’s or PAC’s custody or control; provided, however, that if such information is not within Sellers’ custody or control, Sellers, KGH and PAC shall advise Buyer in writing of the existence of such information and provide a written summary of such information.

In such event, Sellers, and not Buyer or anyone acting on Buyer’s behalf, shall make such disclosures as Sellers deem appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may disclose matters concerning the Property to a Governmental Authority if, (a) in the written opinion of Buyer’s outside legal counsel, Buyer is required by law to make such disclosure, and (b) Buyer gives Sellers not less than ten (10) days prior written notice of the proposed disclosure, together with a copy of such legal opinion.

7.5 Indemnification Procedure.

 

(a) Any party making a claim for indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnitee”) shall notify the indemnifying party or parties, as the case may be (an “Indemnitor”) of the claim in writing promptly (but in no event later than thirty (30) days) after receiving written notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim against it (if by a third party) or discovering the liability, obligation or facts which may reasonably be expected to give rise to such claim for indemnification, describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable), and the basis thereof (a “Notice of Claim”); provided, however, that the failure so to notify Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have actually prejudiced the Indemnitor.

 

(b) With respect to any third party action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim which is the subject of a Notice of Claim (a “Third Party Claim”), an Indemnitor shall be entitled to assume and control (with counsel of its choice) the defense of such Third Party Claim at the Indemnitor’s expense and at its option by sending written notice of its election to do so within fifteen (15) days after receiving the Notice of Claim from the Indemnitee as aforesaid; provided, however, that:

 

(i) The Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose (the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitee);

 

(ii) If the Indemnitor elects to assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall be entitled to compromise or settle such Third Party Claim in its sole discretion so long as either (i) such compromise or settlement is purely monetary and provides an unconditional release of the Indemnitee with respect to such claim or (ii) the Indemnitor shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

 

(iii) If the Indemnitor shall not have assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim within the fifteen (15) day period set forth above, the Indemnitee may assume the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it and may make any compromise or settlement thereof or otherwise protect against the same and be entitled to all amounts paid as a


result of such Third Party Claim or any compromise or settlement thereof, to the extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder with respect thereto, provided that, in the case of any such compromise or settlement, (i) such compromise or settlement is purely monetary and provides an unconditional release of the Indemnitor with respect to such claim or (ii) the Indemnitee shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); and

 

(iv) The Indemnitor shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim only to the extent that if the Third Party Claimant of such Third Party Claim prevails, such victory would not result in (i) a Material Adverse Change in the value of the Company; (ii) any encumbrance in excess of One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) against Company, Buyer, the Property or any assets of Company; (iii) a materially adverse impact on the Company’s ability to operate its business or the Property; or (iv) constitute a default under any agreements between Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer and Lender. If the Indemnitee assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim under this subsection (iv), Indemnitee may make any compromise or settlement thereof or otherwise protect against the same and be entitled to all amounts paid as a result of such Third Party Claim or any compromise or settlement thereof, to the extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder with respect thereto, provided that, in the case of any such compromise or settlement, (i) such compromise or settlement is purely monetary and provides an unconditional release of the Indemnitor with respect to such claim or (ii) the Indemnitee shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

 

(c) The Indemnitee shall at all times cooperate, at its own expense, in all reasonable ways with, make its relevant files and records available for inspection and copying by, and make its employees available or otherwise render reasonable assistance to the Indemnitor. Any failure by the Indemnitee to cooperate with the Indemnitor shall render null and void any obligation of the Indemnitor to indemnify the Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 7.5 to the extent that the Indemnitor has been materially prejudiced by such failure to cooperate.

 

(d) Upon payment of any amount pursuant to any indemnification claim, the Indemnitor shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all of the Indemnitee’s rights of recovery (and, if KGH, PAC or Sellers are the Indemnitors, the Indemnitee shall cause the KGH, PAC or Sellers, as the case may be, to be subrogated to all of Buyer’s rights of recovery) against third parties with respect to the matters to which such indemnification claim relates.

 

(e) The rights and remedies of Buyer and KGH, PAC and Sellers under this Section 7.5 are exclusive and in lieu of any and all other rights and remedies which Buyer or KGH, PAC and Sellers, as the case may be, may have against the other, under this Agreement or otherwise, (a) with respect to (i) the inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, certification or other statement made by KGH, PAC, Sellers or Buyer in or pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) any breach of, or failure to perform or comply with, any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or (b) otherwise with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that this sentence shall not limit the rights of the parties to seek specific performance of any provision of this Agreement or any other rights and remedies expressly set forth in this Agreement. All claims for indemnification must be asserted, if at all, in good faith, in accordance with the provisions this Section 7.5 and within the Survival Period.


(f) If at any time subsequent to the receipt by an Indemnitee of an indemnity payment hereunder, such Indemnitee receives any recovery, settlement or other similar payment with respect to the claim, debt or liability for which it received such indemnity payment (the “Recovery”), such Indemnitee shall promptly pay the Indemnitor an amount equal to the amount of such Recovery up to the amount of the indemnity payment actually received by such Indemnitee, less any expense incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with such Recovery, but in no event shall any such payment exceed the amount of such indemnity payment.

 

(g) None of the indemnified parties shall be entitled to recover for any losses, costs, expenses, or damages arising under this Agreement or in connection with or with respect to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, any amount in excess of the actual compensatory damages, court costs and reasonable attorney fees and costs, suffered by such party, except that any punitive, special, exemplary and consequential damages recovered by a third party against a person entitled to indemnity pursuant to this Section shall be included in the damages recoverable under such indemnity. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, each indemnified party waives any right to recover punitive, special, exemplary or consequential damages arising in connection with or with respect to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. This Section shall not limit Sellers’ right to retain the Deposit as liquidated damages.

 

(h) Each person entitled to indemnification hereunder or otherwise to damages in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement shall take all reasonable steps to mitigate all losses, costs, expenses and damages after becoming aware of any event or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to Rive rise to any losses, costs, expenses and damages that are indemnifiable or recoverable hereunder or in connection herewith.

 

(i) The provisions of this Section 7.5 shall survive Closing or the termination of this Agreement.

 

7.6 Buyer Indemnity. Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers for any and all actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments, judgments, costs, and reasonable legal and other expenses (including those incurred in all bankruptcy and probate matters) incident to Company’s activities after the Closing Date and not otherwise the responsibility of Sellers, PAC, or any of them under this Agreement.

Article 13

Closing Adjustments and Payments.

 

13.1 Post-Closing Adjustments and Payments.

 

(a) Apportionment of Rents, Taxes, Charges and Other Income and Expenses. The following shall be apportioned between the parties on a basis of a 12-month year, a 30-day month, as of 11:59 P.M. of the date preceding the Closing, as the case may be:

 

(i) All rents and other periodic charges, including any pet rents or other recurring rents and fees (collectively, “Rent”), when, as, and if collected. The first monies collected on account of Rent after Closing shall be successively applied to the payment of (1) Rent due and payable in the month in which the Closing occurs, (2) Rent due and payable in the months succeeding the month in which the Closing occurs and (3) Rent due and payable in the months preceding the month in which the Closing occurs, if any. Each party promptly shall account to the other party for any Rent received after Closing to which the other party would be entitled under this Section 13.1(a)(i). Buyer shall have no obligation to collect delinquent Rent.

 

(ii) All real and personal property taxes and assessments and other taxes imposed on the owner of the Property, as owner, and not paid by others. If the Closing shall occur before the taxes are fixed for the current tax year, the apportionment of such taxes shall be tentatively made on the basis of the best available information on the current assessment and tax rate and shall be finally adjusted (and any necessary payments shall be made) within sixty (60) days after the tax bill shall be issued. The proration of undetermined taxes shall be based on a 365 day year and on the last available tax rate or valuation, etc., whether or not officially certified, and maximum allowable discount.

 

(iii) Utility charges payable by the owner of the Property, including water and sewer charges.

 

(iv) Periodic income and operating expenses, including income and charges under the Contracts accepted by Buyer under this Agreement.

 

(b) Post-Closing Adjustment. The parties shall cooperate after Closing to prorate any post-Closing income or charges to the Company, asset forth in Section 13.1(a). Except with respect to general real estate and personal property taxes, any proration which must be estimated at Closing shall be reprorated and finally adjusted as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, but not later than one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter; otherwise all prorations shall be final, Utility bonds and other deposits posted for the Company’s benefit by any Seller, PAC or an Affiliate of any of them shall be released at Closing, unless Buyer was debited for such bond or deposit at Closing. Buyer acknowledges it shall post replacement security, as may be legally required. Disclosure Schedule 13.1(b) lists the amounts of all relevant bonds and deposits, with whom such bonds and deposits have been posted, the form of collateral and all other details relevant to each such bond and deposit.

 

(c) Buyer and Sellers acknowledge and agree that effective as of the Closing Date, Sellers may remove all or a portion of the funds from any and all financial institution accounts owned by the Company and Buyer shall not receive a credit or other adjustment as a result of


such removal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers shall not remove any funds equal to tenant security deposits, prepaid rents or amounts equal to credits granted to tenants, unless Buyer receives a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing for such amounts, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that Sellers shall retain all rights to Account No. 2000014593640 (the “Bank Account”) held at Wachovia Bank National Association in Jacksonville, Florida in the name of Company post closing and Sellers shall use such account to make post closing adjustments and disbursements. Buyer shall open new accounts in the name of Company after Closing. Sellers, PAC and KGH shall indemnify Buyer for any charges or claims against it as a result of Sellers’ use of the Bank Account after Closing.

 

This Section 13.1 shall survive Closing and the delivery of the deed, if any.

 

13.2 Holdbacks.

 

(a) Real Estate Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Sellers shall place three hundred thousand and no/100 dollars ($300,000.00) of the Purchase Price into escrow for the payment of any liabilities of Sellers under this Section 13.2(a). If the aggregate real estate tax liability relating to the Property exceeds nine hundred and no/100 dollars ($900.00) per unit (“Base Tax Amount”) for the calendar year during which the Closing occurs, Sellers shall be liable to Buyer for the amount by which the actual real estate taxes exceeds the Base Tax Amount. Similarly, for calendar years 2003, 2004 and 2005, Sellers shall be liable to Buyer for the excess of the actual real estate taxes paid relating to the Property exceeds the Base Tax Amount with the following annual adjustments: the Base Tax Amount for each year following the calendar year which includes the Closing shall be increased by four percent (4%) over the Base Tax Amount for the preceding year. The balance, if any, shall be disbursed to Sellers on December 31, 2005, Sellers shall pay Buyer any amounts owed under this subsection within five (5) days of when such amount is due.

 

(b) Indemnification Escrow. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Sellers shall place one million five hundred thousand and no/100 dollars ($1,500,000.00) of the Purchase Price into escrow for the payment of any liabilities of Sellers and PAC under Article 7.

 

(c) Escrow Amount. At Closing, Sellers, out of Closing funds, shall pay the Tax Escrow and the Indemnification Escrow into escrow with the Escrow Agent. The amounts paid into Escrow shall be held and released pursuant to the terms of an Escrow Agreement, attached hereto as part of Exhibit I.

 

(d) Survival. This Section 13.2 shall survive Closing.

 

13.3 Income and Expense Items. In addition to the foregoing specific apportionments, and except as otherwise specifically designated in this Agreement, Sellers shall receive all other income relating to periods prior to the Closing and shall pay all operating expenses accrued or incurred prior to Closing and Buyer shall receive all other income accruing on and after Closing and shall pay all other expenses incurred or accrued on and after Closing. If tenants are entitled to post-Closing credits or rent concessions in any form from Company, Sellers shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the total of such amount. Buyer shall receive a credit for the unamortized portion of all such rent concessions or any other special discounts that survive Closing. All items


of income or expense which should be apportioned and which are not or cannot be apportioned at Closing shall be duly apportioned as soon as determined and in accordance with Section 13.1(b). This Section 13.3 shall survive Closing.

 

13.4 Buyer Credits. Buyer shall receive a credit at Closing in an amount equal to the sum of:

 

(a) prepaid rents and security deposits,

 

(b) the interest on the Deposit, and

 

(c) any credit due to Buyer pursuant to Section 1.3.1 of this Agreement and calculable as of the Closing Date.

 

13.5 Costs. No deed shall be recorded in connection with this transaction Buyer shall pay all documentary stamps, intangible taxes, and recording fees with respect to any of its financing arrangements. Each party shall bear its own attorneys fees and costs in connection with this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. All other charges payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid as set forth in the particular provision describing such charges.

 

Article 14

Casualty and Condemnation.

 

14.1 Risk of Loss. Risk of loss up to and including the Closing Date shall be borne by Sellers. In the event of any material damage to or destruction of all or a portion of the Property, Buyer may, at its option, by notice to Sellers given within ten (10) business days after Sellers notify Buyer of such damage or destruction (and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give Buyer the full ten (10) business day period to make such election): (i) terminate this Agreement and Sellers shall cause Escrow Agent immediately to return the Deposit to Buyer, or (ii) proceed under this Agreement, receive any and all insurance proceeds (including any and all rent loss insurance applicable to any period on and after the Closing Date) due Sellers or Company as a result of such damage or destruction and assume responsibility for such repair, and Buyer shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible, uninsured, or coinsured amount under such insurance policies. If no notice is given by Buyer after receipt of proper notice from Sellers, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement. If Buyer elects (ii) above, Buyer may extend the Closing Date for up to an additional thirty (30) business day period in which to obtain insurance settlement agreements with the Company’s insurers, and Sellers will cooperate with Buyer in obtaining the insurance proceeds and such agreements from the Company’s insurers, If all or a portion of the Property is not materially damaged, then Buyer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement, and at Closing Buyer shall receive any and all insurance proceeds (including any rent loss insurance applicable to any period on and after the Closing Date) due the Company as a result of such damage or destruction and assume responsibility for such repair, and Buyer shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible, uninsured, or coinsured amount under said insurance policies. “Material damage” and “materially damaged” means damage (x) reasonably estimated to exceed two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000.00), unless otherwise required by Lender, or (y) which, in Buyer’s reasonable estimation, will take longer than ninety (90) days to repair.


14.2 Condemnation. If prior to Closing, condemnation or eminent domain proceedings are commenced against all or any portion of the Property, or if Sellers receive a notice that such proceedings are contemplated, Sellers shall give Buyer written notice thereof, at which point Buyer shall have the option to (i) terminate this Agreement by giving a Termination Notice, in which event Sellers shall cause Escrow Agent immediately to return the Deposit to Buyer, or (ii) proceed to Closing in accordance with this Agreement, in which event the net award to which Sellers shall be entitled shall be paid or assigned by Sellers to Buyer at Closing. If Buyer does not exercise its Termination Option within thirty (30) days after receiving notice of the condemnation proceedings, Buyer will be deemed to have elected to proceed to Closing as provided in clause (ii) above.

 

14.3 Binding Effect. This Article 14 is an express provision with respect to destruction and eminent domain and is intended to supersede any applicable statute regarding risk of loss.

 

Article 15

Brokerage.

 

15.1 Broker. Neither party has had any contact or dealings regarding all or a portion of the Property, or any communication in connection with the subject matter of this transaction, through any licensed real estate broker or other Person who can claim a right to a commission or finder’s fee as a procuring cause of the sale contemplated in this Agreement. Buyer shall indemnify, save harmless, and defend Sellers from any liability, cost, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and including those incurred in all bankruptcy and probate proceedings) arising out of or connected with any claim for any commission or compensation made by any Person claiming to have been retained or contacted by Buyer in connection with this transaction. Sellers shall indemnify, save harmless, and defend Buyer from any liability, cost, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and including those incurred in all bankruptcy and probate proceedings) arising out of or connected with any claim, for any commission or compensation made by any Person claiming to have been retained or contacted by Sellers in connection with this transaction. This Article shall survive the Closing, the delivery of the deed (if any), and any termination of this Agreement.

 

Article 16

Defaults.

 

16.1 Sellers’ Default. If the sale of the Membership Interests under this Agreement shall fail to close due to Sellers’ default or breach, Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedies (except for Sellers’ indemnity obligations under this Agreement which expressly survive such termination) shall be either to (i) terminate this Agreement by exercise of a Termination Option, at which point the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer (at which time this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement), or (ii) seek specific performance of this Agreement. Buyer shall not exercise a Termination Option due to Sellers’ default or breach unless Buyer gives Sellers notice of such default or breach and such default or breach is not cured within ten (10) days of the provision of such notice.


16.2 Buyer’s Default. If the sale of the Membership Interests under this Agreement shall fail to close due to Buyer’s default or breach, Sellers’ sole and exclusive remedy, shall be to terminate this Agreement by exercise of a Termination Option and to receive the Deposit, which shall be forfeited to Seller as liquidated damages in accordance with Section 16.3 below (at which time this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.).

 

16.3 EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR BUYER’S DEFAULT IN FAILING TO CLOSE. BUYER AND SELLERS HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE AMOUNT OF SELLERS’ DANLAGES IN THE EVENT OF A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT BY BUYER WOULD BE DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE AND THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT IS THE PARTIES’ BEST AND MOST ACCURATE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES SELLERS WOULD SUFFER IF THE TRANSACTION PROVIDED FOR. IN THIS AGREEMENT FAILS TO CLOSE AND THAT SUCH ESTIMATE IS REASONABLE TINDER. THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE AND UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT SELLERS AND BUYER REASONABLY ANTICIPATE WOULD EXIST AT THE TIME OF SUCH BREACH. BUYER AND SELLERS AGREE THAT SELLERS’ RIGHTS UNDER. THE PRECEDING SENTENCE SHALL BE THE SOLE REMEDIES OF SELLERS IF THIS TRANSACTION FAILS TO CLOSE BECAUSE OF A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT BY BUYER. TO CONFIRM THE FOREGOING. BUYER AND SELLERS HEREBY INITIAL THIS AGREEMENT AS FOLLOWS:

 

Buyer                             

  

Seller (KGH)                             

    

Seller (Osprey)

Counsel named above for a party may give notices for that party with the same force and effect as if given by the party.

 

17.4 Escrow Provisions. The escrow of the Deposit and the Escrow Amount shall be subject to the provisions set forth in the two Escrow Agreements attached hereto as composite Exhibit I.

 

17.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties and may not be changed orally but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any waiver, change, modification, or discharge is sought.

 

17.6 Governing Law. This Agreement is, and shall be deemed to be, a contract entered into under and pursuant to the laws of the state of Florida and shall be in all respects governed, construed, applied, and enforced in accordance with the laws of Florida. Jurisdiction and venue shall be proper only in Orange County, Florida.

 

17.7 Successors and Assigns. Subject to following provisions, this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Without the prior written consent of Buyer, no Seller shall, directly or indirectly, assign this Agreement or any of its rights under this Agreement. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Agreement shall, at the election of Buyer, be of no force or effect and shall constitute a default by Sellers.

17.8 Waiver. The excuse or waiver of the performance by a party of any obligation of the other party under this Agreement shall only be effective if evidenced by a written statement signed by the party so excusing or waiving. No delay in exercising any right or remedy shall


constitute a waiver thereof, and no waiver by Sellers or Buyer of the breach of any covenant or condition of this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other covenant or condition of this Agreement.

 

17.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and it shall be sufficient that the signature of each party appear on one or more such counterparts. All counterparts collectively shall constitute a single agreement.

 

17.10 Attorneys’ Fees, Costs. In the event of a judicial or administrative proceeding or action by one party against the other party with respect to the interpretation or enforcement (including specific performance) of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable costs and expenses including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses (including those incurred in all bankruptcy and probate matters). The prevailing party shall be determined by the court based on an assessment of which party’s major arguments or position prevailed.

 

17.11 Headings; Word Meaning. The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any provisions of this Agreement. Words such as “herein”, “hereinafter”, “hereof” and “hereunder” when used in reference to this Agreement, refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear, unless the context otherwise requires. The singular shall include the plural and the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter, and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The term “include” and similar terms (e.g., includes, including, included, comprises, comprising, such as e.g., and for example), when used as part of a phrase including one or more specific items, are used by way of example and not of limitation.

 

17.12 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement and all covenants and deadlines under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer and Sellers hereby confirm their intention and agreement that time shall be of the essence of each and every provision of this Agreement, notwithstanding any subsequent modification or extension of any date or time period provided under this Agreement.

 

17.13 Construction of Agreement. This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one party than against the other merely by virtue of the fact that it may have been prepared primarily by counsel for one of the parties, it being recognized that both Buyer and Sellers have contributed substantially and materially to the preparation of this Agreement.

 

17.14 Severability. The parties intend and believe that each provision in this Agreement comports with all applicable local, state, and federal laws and judicial decisions. If, however, any provision in this Agreement is found by a court of competent, jurisdiction to be in violation of any applicable local, state, or federal law, statute, ordinance, administrative or judicial decision, or, public policy, or if in any other respect such a court declares any such provision to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable as written, then it is the intent of all parties that, consistent with and with a view toward preserving the economic and legal arrangements among the parties as expressed in this Agreement, such provision shall be given force and effect to the fullest possible extent, and that the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed as if such illegal, invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable provision were not in this Agreement, and that the rights, obligations, and interests of the parties under the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.


17.15 No Implied Agreement. Neither Sellers nor Buyer shall have any obligations in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement unless both Sellers and Buyer, each acting in its sole discretion, elects to execute and deliver this Agreement to the other party. No correspondence, course of dealing, or submission of drafts or final versions of this Agreement between Sellers and Buyer shall be deemed to create any binding obligations in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and no contract or obligation on the part of Sellers or Buyer shall arise unless and until this Agreement is fully executed by both Sellers and Buyer. Once executed and delivered by Sellers and Buyer, this Agreement shall be binding on them notwithstanding the failure of Escrow Agent or any broker or other Person to execute this Agreement.

 

17.16 Radon Gas Disclosure. Chapter 88-285, Florida Statutes, requires the following notice to be provided with respect to the Agreement for sale and purchase of any building, or a rental agreement for any building: “RADON GAS: Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that, when it has accumulated in a building in sufficient quantities, may present health risks to persons who are exposed to it over time. Levels of radon that exceed federal and state guidelines have been found in buildings in Florida. Additional information regarding radon and radon testing may be obtained from your county public health unit.”

 

17.17 Exchange. Sellers agree to cooperate with Buyer if Buyer elects to cause the sale or purchase of Company or the Property to be part of a tax free exchange under Section 1031 of the Code. Sellers further agree to execute at or prior to Closing such documents as may be reasonable, necessary, or appropriate to cause this Agreement to be assigned to a qualified intermediary, to be identified as a replacement property, or as shall otherwise be proposed by the attorneys for Buyer or by a qualified exchange intermediary, provided that Sellers do not thereby incur additional expense (other than such party’s attorneys’ fees) or liability.

 

17.18 Facsimile. For all purposes under this Agreement, including the negotiation and finalizing of this Agreement and Closing, each document transmitted by facsimile machine shall be treated, in all manner and respect, as an original document and the signature of any party on each document transmitted by facsimile machine shall be considered, for all purposes, as an original signature (except for any documents or instruments which must be recorded). Each such document sued and transmitted by facsimile shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as an original signed document. At the request of either party, any document sent by facsimile machine shall be re-executed and an original signature sent to the requesting party. Each party agrees not to raise an objection to any document that was transmitted by facsimile machine or as a defense that any document is not binding on the party who signed the document and transmitted it by facsimile machine. The parties further agree that any document signed and transmitted by e-mail shall not be binding on either party until an original signed copy of such document or a facsimile copy of such document shall have been exchanged by the parties.

 

17.19 Restatement of Operating Agreement and Articles of Organization. Immediately following the Closing, Buyer, at Buyer’s expense, shall amend and restate the Operating Agreement of the Company and file amended Articles of Organization evidencing removal of Manager as manager of the Company. Buyer shall provide Sellers’ Agent with a copy of such filing.
