The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Section 2.4 shall survive the Closing.

3. PURCHASE PRICE

Within three (3) Business Days after the Effective Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Escrow Agent the sum of TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 Dollars ($250,000.00), which shall be held by the Escrow Agent as a deposit under this Agreement (the “First Deposit”). Unless this Agreement is terminated prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, whereupon the First Deposit shall be promptly returned by Escrow Agent to the Purchaser, Purchaser shall, within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of the Inspection Period, deposit with the Title Company an additional sum equal to TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 Dollars ($250,000.00) (the “Second Deposit”) in good funds either by certified bank or cashier’s check or by federal wire transfer. The First Deposit and the Second Deposit (together totaling $500,000.00), together with any interest earned thereon as provided herein, shall hereinafter be referred to collectively as the “Deposit”.

3.2.2 Maintenance of Deposit. The Deposit shall be held by the Escrow Agent in an interest-bearing account, under Purchaser’s taxpayer identification number of ###-###-#### pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement with such changes thereto as may be agreed to by Seller and Purchaser pursuant thereto. The Deposit shall be fully refunded to Purchaser upon termination of this Agreement by Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period and otherwise if this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser in accordance with any right of Purchaser to do so under this Agreement. Otherwise, it shall be non-refundable to Purchaser except as expressly provided in this Agreement. If the Deposit is to be paid to Seller under the provisions of this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall pay the Deposit to Seller in the manner and on the terms and

 

11


conditions set forth herein. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any penalties, or loss of principal or interest or any delays in the withdrawal of the Deposit which may be imposed by the depository as a result of the making or redeeming of the investment pursuant to the instructions of Purchaser and Seller, nor shall Escrow Agent be liable for any loss or impairments of funds while those funds are in the course of collection or while those funds are on deposit in a financial institution if such a loss or impairment results from the failure, insolvency or suspension of such financial institution. Escrow Agent is not responsible for levies by taxing authorities based on the taxpayer identification number used to establish the Account. Purchaser and Seller are aware of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) coverage limits for each individual depositor. Further, Purchaser and Seller understand that Escrow Agent assumes no responsibility for any loss that occurs due to any individual depositor’s account balance exceeding the amount, if any, insured by the FDIC, and Purchaser and Seller will not hold Escrow Agent liable for any such loss. Purchaser and Seller further understand that certain banking instruments are not covered at all by FDIC insurance. The Deposit held by Escrow Agent shall be subject to the provisions of Chapter 717, Florida Statutes.

3.2.3 Disbursement of Deposit to Seller. At Closing, Purchaser shall cause the Escrow Agent to disburse the Deposit to Seller, and Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of the Deposit.

3.2.4 Refund of Deposits to Purchaser. If this Agreement is terminated and Purchaser is entitled to a refund of the Deposit under any express provision of this Agreement, then the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Deposit to Purchaser no later than two (2) Business Days after termination.

3.2.5 Forfeiture of Deposit. If Purchaser’s Default occurs and remains uncured beyond any applicable cure period, upon the expiration of such cure period, Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit and Escrow Agent shall disburse the Deposit to Seller no later than two (2) Business Days after the expiration of such cure period. In such case, pursuant to Section 10.2, the Deposit shall be Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, and the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive such termination.

3.2.6 Disagreements Regarding Deposit. If Escrow Agent shall be unable to determine at any time to whom the Deposit should be paid or if a dispute should develop between Seller and Purchaser concerning the disposition of the Deposit, then in any such event, Escrow Agent shall pay the Deposit in accordance with the joint (or consistent) written instructions of Seller and Purchaser. In the event that such joint (or consistent) written instructions shall not be received by Escrow Agent within ten (10) days after Escrow Agent shall have served written requests for such joint (or consistent) written instructions upon Seller and Purchaser, Escrow Agent shall have the right to pay all of the Deposit into a court of competent jurisdiction in Orlando, Florida, and to interplead Seller and Purchaser in respect thereof; and, thereafter, Escrow Agent shall be discharged of any further or continuing obligations in connection with the Deposit.

 

12


3.2.7 Escrow Agent’s Costs and Expenses. If costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) are incurred by Escrow Agent because of litigation or any dispute between Seller and Purchaser arising out of the holding of the Deposit, the non-prevailing party in such dispute shall reimburse Escrow Agent for reasonable costs and expenses incurred. Seller and Purchaser hereby agree and acknowledge that Escrow Agent assumes no Liability in connection with the holding or investment of the Deposit pursuant hereto, except for the negligence or willful misconduct of Escrow Agent and its employees and agents. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the validity, correctness or genuineness of any document or notice referred to herein; and, in the event of any dispute under this Agreement relating to the disposition of the Deposit, Escrow Agent may seek advice from its own counsel and, provided that Escrow Agent tenders the Deposit into a court of competent jurisdiction in Orlando, Florida, Escrow Agent shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith in accordance with the opinion of Escrow Agent’s counsel. Seller and Purchaser hereby agree and acknowledge that the Escrow Agent assumes no Liability in connection with the holding or investment of the Deposit pursuant hereto, and Seller and Purchaser hereby agree to indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and an all liability, costs, damages, including court costs and attorney’s fees, which Escrow Agent may in good faith sustain or incur in connection with this Agreement, except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Escrow Agent and its employees and agents.

3.3 Payment of Purchase Price.

3.3.1 Payment at Closing. At Closing, Purchaser shall pay to Seller (as directed by Seller) by wire transfer an amount equal to the Purchase Price (as adjusted pursuant hereto), less the Deposit.

3.3.2 Method of Payment. All amounts to be paid by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. federal funds.

3.4 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Parties agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated between the Property and the Personal Property for federal, state and local tax purposes as may be mutually determined by Purchaser and Seller in their reasonable discretion prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period.

4. DUE DILIGENCE AND INSPECTION

4.1.1 At all times prior to Closing, Purchaser and Purchaser’s Inspectors shall, subject to at least one (1) business day’s prior notice to Seller’s property manager, Bonne J. Piccirilli, (Telephone: 816 ###-###-####, E-Mail: ***@***) (except that for any invasive testing permitted herein or any requested tenant interview at least two (2) business day’s prior notice shall be provided), have the right to enter upon the Property at reasonable times and to perform, at Purchaser’s expense, such Inspections of and concerning the Assets, as Purchaser may reasonably deem appropriate. Upon one (1)

 

13


Business Days’ notice, Purchaser shall have the right to meet and interview Persons involved in the management and operation of the Property to discuss the business operations, including the revenues, expenses, operation and physical condition of the Assets, and shall have the one-time right to meet and interview tenant representatives (provided, however, Purchaser shall have the right to conduct follow-ups with tenants if reasonably required by Purchaser). In addition, Purchaser shall have the right, but not the obligation, to contact such Governmental Authorities as it may elect in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Inspections shall not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the applicable Property or the tenant’s operations thereon. Purchaser shall allow Seller the opportunity to participate in any communication with a tenant or Governmental Authority and to be present for any physical Inspections of the Assets, but such right to have a Seller representative present shall not cause a material delay in any such communications or Inspections. Within three (3) Business Days following the Effective Date, to the extent in Seller’s possession or reasonable control, Seller shall furnish to Purchaser, or make available to Purchaser via an electronic “war room,” all information with respect to the Assets, each of which will be, to Seller’s Knowledge (except for any documents delivered by Seller pursuant to Sections 5.1.9, 5.1.10, 5.1.13, and 5.1.23, which are being furnished by Seller without a “Seller’s Knowledge” qualifier), a true, correct and complete copy of the document it purports to be, including but not limited to the following (collectively, “Seller Disclosure Materials”):

(i) All Warranties which are still in effect to which Seller may be entitled to make a claim;

(ii) All licenses and permits relating to Seller’s ownership of the Leasehold Interests and Improvements (the “Licenses and Permits”);

(iii) The most recent real estate tax statements with respect to the Property, if any;

(iv) The surveys, engineering and architectural plans, drawings and specifications relating to the Property, as applicable, including, without limitation, the Plans and Specifications;

(v) All contracts affecting the Assets in any material respect;

(vi) Copies of the Books and Records;

(vii) The Ground Lease and all Tenant Leases and all agreements for real estate commissions, brokerage fees, finder’s fees or other compensation payable in connection therewith which will be binding on Purchaser after the Closing;

(viii) Three (3) years of certified financial statements for the MOB; and,

 

14


(ix) All other information and documentation that Purchaser may reasonably request in writing regarding the Assets so long as such information and documentation is in Seller’s possession or control, and is not proprietary.

From the Effective Date through Closing, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchase, at Purchaser’s expense, in the conduct of its Inspections of the Assets and shall answer any reasonable questions of Purchaser and provide updates of the rent rolls and other financial information provided as set forth above or otherwise in the Agreement as the same are produced or at the request of Purchaser and in any event five (5) Business Days prior to Closing. Purchaser and Purchaser’s Inspectors shall take all reasonable precautions to not interfere with Seller’s operations of the Assets, make reasonable commercial efforts to minimize the impact on the Property of any Inspections and coordinate with Seller regarding communications with Seller’s employees and Governmental Authorities relating to the Inspections. With respect to physical Inspections of the Assets to be conducted by Purchaser (e.g., environmental Inspections), Purchaser shall retain professional third-party consultants to complete such Inspections and shall require such third-party consultants to maintain liability insurance coverage for their activities that is consistent with liability insurance coverage customarily maintained by similar professional third-party consultants, provided that in all events such liability insurance shall be in an amount at least equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit. Upon Seller’s request, Purchaser shall provide evidence of such insurance coverage. Such insurance shall (a) name Seller and Ground Lessor as additional insureds, (b) contain a provision that the insurance provided thereunder shall be primary and noncontributing with any other insurance available to Seller, and (c) otherwise be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Seller (which approval Seller agrees to provide within one (1) business day following receipt of evidence of insurance and, if Seller fails to respond within one (1) business day, such failure to respond shall be deemed approval by Seller). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller agrees to reasonably co-operate with Purchaser if, after commercially reasonable efforts, Purchaser is unable to cause a third-party consultant to strictly comply with the insurance requirements set forth herein so long as such third-party consultant otherwise provides insurance which is generally consistent with insurance coverage customarily maintained by similar professional third-party consultants. Such third-party consultants will be notified of and advised to comply with the confidentiality provisions set forth in this Agreement. If Purchaser or Purchaser’s Inspectors intend to undertake or perform any “Phase II” environmental studies or other invasive or destructive testing, sampling or studies, Purchaser shall first obtain Seller’s written approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Purchaser shall, immediately after any entry, inspection or test, restore the Assets, in all material respects and at its sole cost, to the condition which existed immediately prior thereto (to the extent practicable), including replacing paving and landscaping. If a lien is placed against the Property as a result of Purchaser’s inspections, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pay or cause to be removed such liens within ten (10) days of written notice thereof, but in any event such lien shall be paid or caused to be removed by Purchaser or Inspecting Parties within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof. The foregoing restoration obligations of Purchaser shall survive the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement. In the event this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof and, at the time of termination, any lien placed against the Property as a result of Purchaser’s inspections remains in place, Escrow Agent may retain such portion of the Deposit as is required to satisfy such lien until such time as the lien is released. In the event the transaction contemplated by this

 

15


Agreement is not consummated, Purchaser shall return to Seller any and all due diligence materials provided by Seller to Purchaser hereunder. All Inspections shall be performed in accordance with all applicable laws. Subject to any limitations imposed by any third party consultant, Purchaser shall promptly, following Seller’s written request, provide Seller with full and complete copies of all reports, studies, surveys and other written materials developed by or provided to Purchaser in connection with all inspections, tests and studies conducted by or on behalf of Purchaser.

4.2 Matters Relating to Title.

4.2.1 State of Title. Purchaser may obtain a current title commitment (the “Title Commitment”) with respect to the Property from the Title Company, together with legible copies of all title exception documents. Purchaser may also obtain, at its own cost, the Survey during the Inspection Period. Within ten (10) Business Days after the date of receipt by Purchaser of the Title Commitment and Survey (but in any event, five (5) calendar days prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period), Purchaser may submit to Seller a written Notice from Purchaser (“Title Notice”) specifying any alleged defects in or objections to the title shown in the Title Commitment or any of the Survey. Any matters to which Purchaser objects in the Title Notice shall constitute “Title Exceptions”, and any survey defects to which Purchaser objects in the Title Notice shall constitute “Survey Defects” (the Title Exceptions and Survey Defects shall collectively be referred to as the “Unpermitted Exceptions”). Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) Business Days of receiving the Title Notice (the Exception Cure Period) whether Seller will cure any Unpermitted Exceptions set forth in the Title Notice and, if Seller elects to cure such Unpermitted Exceptions, Seller shall do so at its own expense (the failure to so notify Purchaser within such five (5) Business Days being deemed an election not to cure such Unpermitted Exceptions). Upon Purchaser’s failure to timely object, all matters shown on the Title Commitment or on the Survey shall thereafter be deemed a “Permitted Exception”. Any matter which Seller elects or is deemed to have elected not to cure shall also be deemed a Permitted Exception unless Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller within five (5) Business Days after Purchaser receives written notice of Seller’s election not to cure such objection or Seller is deemed to have elected not to cure such Unpermitted Exception. If Seller elects to cure any or all of the Unpermitted Exceptions, but is unable to complete the cure of such Unpermitted Exceptions before Closing, Purchaser shall have the right, in its absolute discretion, to elect, upon written notice to Seller within five (5) Business Days of written notice from Seller that Seller is unable to cure such Unpermitted Exceptions, to either (A) proceed to the Closing in which event any such Unpermitted Exceptions shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions; or (B) to proceed pursuant to Section 4.2.2. Failure by Purchaser to deliver the notice referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed an election under (B) above and failure of Seller to cure any default it has elected to cure hereunder shall be an Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Ground Lease and the Declaration shall be Permitted Exceptions.

4.2.2 Failure of Title. If on the Closing Date the Leasehold Interests and Improvements are not insurable or are subject to any Unpermitted Exceptions, Purchaser

 

16


may elect, as its sole right and remedy, either (i) to take such title to such interests as can be conveyed, with no abatement of the Purchase Price (except for abatement to the extent of monetary liens of a definite, fixed and ascertainable amount not in excess of the Purchase Price), or (ii) to terminate this Agreement and proceed pursuant to Article 10 below.

4.2.3 Updated Title Commitment and Survey. If prior to Closing any update of the Title Commitment discloses any Title Exception which is not disclosed in a Title Commitment previously obtained by Purchaser and does not arise by, through or under Purchaser (a “New Title Exception”), or any update of the Survey obtained by Purchaser discloses any Survey Defect which is not disclosed in the Survey previously obtained by Purchaser (a “New Survey Defect”), Purchaser shall notify Seller of any objections thereto within five (5) days of receipt of such Title Commitment or Survey. If Purchaser sends such an objection, the Parties shall have the same rights and obligations with respect to such matters as apply to Unpermitted Exception under Section 4.2.1. Seller will not, during the term of this Agreement, create or permit to exist any New Title Exception or New Survey Defect without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

4.2.4 Title Policy. At Closing, Purchaser shall take such steps as may be necessary to cause the Title Company to issue a standard leasehold’s title insurance policy to Purchaser (the “Title Policy”) and a standard loan title insurance policy to Purchaser’s lender, as applicable, subject only to the applicable Permitted Exceptions.

4.2.5 Conveyance of the Leasehold Interests and Improvements. At Closing Seller shall convey the Leasehold Interests via the form of Assignment and Assumption of Ground Lease attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2.5 and the Improvements to Purchaser via the Deed, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (provided, however, neither Assignment nor Deed shall list as a Permitted Exception any exception for any matters appearing solely on the Survey and not otherwise appearing in the public records of Johnson County, Kansas).

4.3 Assignment and Assumption of Facility Contracts, Tenant Leases, and Transferred Licenses and Permits. On the Closing Date, the Tenant Leases shall be assigned by Seller and assumed by Purchaser as of the Closing Date pursuant to the assignment and assumption agreement described in Section 8.3.4 and the Facility Contracts and Transferred Licenses and Permits shall be assigned by Seller and assumed by Purchaser as of the Closing Date pursuant to the assignment and assumption agreement described in Section 8.3.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or before the termination of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall identify in writing to Seller (i) which Facility Contracts it agrees to assume, and (ii) any such Facility Contracts it does not agree to assume, and Seller shall retain such Facility Contracts as Retained Liabilities or terminate such disapproved Facility Contracts at its sole cost and expense as of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be responsible for the obligations under any Facility Contracts that it does not expressly approve in writing during the Inspection Period and assume in the assignment and assumption.

 

17


4.4 Purchaser’s Election Whether or Not to Proceed. If Purchaser determines in its sole discretion for any reason, or no reason at all, that it does not desire to acquire the Assets and Purchaser notifies Seller and the Escrow Agent of such determination in writing prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, then the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser, this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect, and the Parties hereto shall have no further obligations to the other (except for any obligations or liabilities that expressly survive termination of this Agreement). In any instance where Purchaser has the discretion to elect to terminate this Agreement, and in fact does elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Article 4, Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to Purchaser without further instructions, consent or written authorization by Seller. This provision shall constitute the mutual escrow instructions to Escrow Agent and Escrow Agent shall be entitled and required to rely upon such instructions to return the Deposit to Purchaser without consent or further action by Seller.

4.5 Release and Indemnification. Purchaser (for itself and all Purchaser’s Indemnitees) hereby releases Seller’s Indemnitees for any Indemnification Loss incurred by any Purchaser Indemnitee arising from or in connection with the Inspections, except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller’s Indemnitee. Purchaser shall indemnify, save, insure pay, defend and hold harmless Seller’s Indemnitees in accordance with Article 12 from and against any Indemnification Loss incurred by Seller’s Indemnitee arising from or in connection with the Inspections, except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller’s Indemnitee.

4.6 No Representation or Warranty by Seller. Purchaser acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Seller has not made and does not make any warranty or representation regarding the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Property Seller’s Due Diligence Materials or the source(s) thereof. Purchaser further acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, some if not all of the Seller’s Due Diligence Materials were prepared by third parties other than Seller. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Seller expressly disclaims any and all liability for representations or warranties, express or implied, statements of fact and other matters contained in such information, or for omissions from the Seller’s Due Diligence Materials, or in any other written or oral communications transmitted or made available to Purchaser. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement including Seller’s representations and warranties in Section 5.1 Purchaser shall rely solely upon its own investigation with respect to the Property and Assets, including, without limitation, the Property’s Asset’s physical, environmental or economic condition, compliance or lack of compliance with any ordinance, order, permit or regulation or any other attribute or matter relating thereto. Seller has not undertaken any independent investigation as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Seller’s Due Diligence Materials and are providing the Seller’s Due Diligence Materials solely as an accommodation to Purchaser.

5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

5.1 Seller’s Representations and Warranties. To induce Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions described in this Agreement, Seller hereby makes the representations and warranties in this Section 5.1, upon which Seller acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser is entitled to rely, and as of Closing shall provide a certificate reconfirming that all such representations and warranties remain true and correct as of the Closing Date, except as updated in accordance with Section 13.20.

provided, however, Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any Indemnification Loss incurred by Purchaser as a result of any Seller exercising its rights to so contest any Taxes under this Section 6.4.1. This Section 6.4.1 shall survive the Closing.

If Seller desires to contest such Taxes, Seller shall provide written notice to Purchaser within ten (10) days after receipt of Purchaser’s request confirming that Seller will contest such Taxes, in which case Seller shall proceed to contest such Taxes, and Purchaser shall not have the right to contest such Taxes. If Seller fails to provide such written notice confirming that Seller will contest such Taxes within such ten (10) day period, Purchaser shall have the right to contest such Taxes, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, and Seller shall reasonably cooperate with respect to any such contest made by Purchaser. Any refunds or abatements awarded in such proceedings shall be used first to reimburse the Party contesting such Taxes for the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such Party in contesting such Taxes, and the remainder of such refunds or abatements shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser (subject to the terms of the Tenant Leases) as of the Closing Date, and the Party receiving such refunds or abatements promptly shall pay such prorated amount due to the other Party. This Section 6.4.2 shall survive the Closing.

This Section 6.4.3 shall survive the Closing.

6.5 Notices and Filings. Seller and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other (at no cost or expense to the Party whose cooperation is requested, other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which the requesting Party agrees in writing to reimburse) to provide written notice to any Person under any Facility Contracts, the Ground Lease, Tenant Leases, or Licenses and Permits and to effect any required registrations or filings with any Governmental Authority or other Person, regarding the change in ownership of the Assets.

6.6 Further Assurances. From the Effective Date until the Closing or termination of this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions described in this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) obtaining all necessary consents, approvals and authorizations required to be obtained from any Governmental Authority or other Person under this Agreement or Applicable Law, and (ii) effecting all registrations and filings required under this Agreement or Applicable Law. After

 

28


Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts (at no cost or expense to such Party, other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which the requesting Party agrees in writing to reimburse) to further effect the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

6.7 Estoppel Certificates/SNDA. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain estoppel certificates (the “Third-Party Estoppels”) and deliver the same to Purchaser at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date from, the following (collectively, the “Required Third-Party Estoppels”): (i) tenant estoppels from Mid-America Surgery Institute, LLC, a Kansas limited liability company, and Women’s Clinic of Johnson County, Inc., a Kansas corporation (collectively, “Major Tenants”), for their respective Tenant Leases at the MOB; and (ii) a landlord estoppel from Ground Lessor. Seller shall additionally use good faith efforts to obtain prior to Closing tenant estoppels from all other tenants at the MOB and Third-Party Estoppels from any other third party reasonably required by Purchaser as a result of its due diligence regarding the Assets. Seller shall also use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Purchaser at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements from the Major Tenants (the “SNDAs”). Additionally, Seller shall use good faith efforts to obtain and deliver to Purchaser prior to Closing subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements from all other tenants at the MOB. The forms of all tenant estoppels and subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements required pursuant to this Section shall be as reasonably required by Purchaser’s lender, subject to the terms of the Ground Lease and Tenant Leases, as applicable, and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the forms to Seller within fifteen (15) days of the Effective Date. Seller acknowledges that if required by the Title Company, Purchaser’s draft of the landlord estoppel from Ground Lessor may include a written waiver of the ROFR but Seller does not warrant or agree that any such written waiver will be approved by Ground Lessor. Seller further agrees that Purchaser’s draft tenant estoppel from Mid-America Surgery Institute, LLC may include language which grants a royalty and cost-free license to Purchaser (or its assignee) for the use of the name “Mid America Surgery Institute” in marketing materials, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filings, and other similar public notices and filings, but Seller does not warrant or agree that any such license will be approved by Mid-America Surgery Institute, LLC. In no event shall Seller be in default hereunder for its failure to obtain any or all of the Third-Party Estoppels or SNDAs (so long as Seller used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Third-Party Estoppels or SNDAs), but the delivery of Third-Party Estoppels and SNDAs from the Major Tenants shall be a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligation (which may be waived by Purchaser in writing specifically waiving such requirement) to acquire the Assets. If, after using commercially reasonable efforts, Seller cannot cause the Major Tenants to execute Third-Party Estoppels and SNDAs reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and acceptable to Purchaser’s lender at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller may extend the Closing Date for up to thirty (30) days to allow Seller additional time to obtain Third-Party Estoppels and SNDAs from such Major Tenants. If Seller cannot cause such Major Tenants and Ground Lessor to execute Third-Party Estoppels and SNDAs at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (as the same may have been extended pursuant to the previous sentence), Purchaser shall have the right to either (i) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller of its election of the same, or (ii) proceed to the Closing notwithstanding Seller’s failure to deliver the missing Third-Party Estoppels and SNDAs, in which event Seller shall provide an estoppel certificate for any Tenant Lease for

 

29


which Seller failed to obtain an executed Third-Party Estoppel. If Purchaser terminates this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing, the Deposit shall be promptly delivered to Purchaser, and, provided that Seller used good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the terms of this Section, thereafter neither Party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except as specifically provided in this Agreement.

6.8 Exclusivity. Seller covenants and agrees to refrain during the term of this Agreement from making, accepting, encouraging or soliciting or otherwise pursuing any other offer or proposal or agreement regarding the sale of the Assets or any portion thereof or any interest therein, and will deal exclusively with Purchaser in good faith toward the completion of the transaction contemplated herein unless this Agreement shall be terminated as provided herein.

Purchaser shall never be or be deemed the employer of any Employee and shall not be liable to any Employee for any wages, salaries, bonuses, vacation days, sick days or personal days in which said Employee may have acquired an accrued or vested right by virtue of their employment. Seller shall and hereby agree to indemnify, save, defend, pay, insure and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any Liability for wages, salaries, bonuses, accrued vacation days, sick days and personal days to be paid to Employees. Seller shall remain liable for and hereby agree to indemnify, save, defend, pay, insure and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any Liability arising out of or relating to medical, pension, welfare benefits, other employee benefits or other fringe benefits (hereinafter collectively referred to as “benefits”) due to Employees under plans in which employees of Seller participate whether prior to or after Closing, and all payments due on the plans providing such benefits. Seller shall also remain responsible for and hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, pay, insure and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any loss, cost, damage, claims, expense or Liability arising out of or relating to any Seller’s failure to pay (a) any Employee of Seller’s wages, salary, bonuses, employment taxes, accrued vacation pay, sick days and personal days, and withholding taxes, (b) benefits, whenever due, provided under plans in which Employees of Seller participate, (c) liability under Section 4980B, Part 6 of Title I of ERISA or Title IV of ERISA and (d) liability under the WARN Act.

6.11 Post-Closing Audit. If requested by Purchaser, and to the extent required by any Applicable Law, regulations and statutes governing Purchaser or any of its investors, partners or members, Seller acknowledges and agrees to assist Purchaser in conducting, no later than seventy-five (75) days following the Closing Date, an audit of property-level financials for the Property as specified by Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, provided such audit shall be at the sole cost and expense of Purchaser.

The rights and obligations of Purchaser and Seller under this Section 6.11 shall survive Closing.

Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, agrees that Seller and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, shall not directly or indirectly solicit, divert or accept business from any tenant under any of the Tenant Leases, prospective tenant of the MOB, or otherwise interfere with the relationship between Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser and any tenant or prospective tenant of any portion of the Real Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, general public advertisements by Seller or its Subsidiaries or its Affiliates shall not be deemed a violation or breach of this Section 6.12. The Parties recognize and acknowledge that a breach of this Section 6.12 by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries will cause irreparable and material loss and damage to Purchaser and hereby consent to the granting by any court of competent jurisdiction of an injunction or other equitable relief, without the necessity of posting a bond, cash or otherwise, and without the necessity of actual monetary loss being proved or Purchaser’s establishing the inadequacy of any remedy at law, and order that the breach or threatened breach of such provisions may be effectively restrained. The provisions of this Section 6.12 shall expressly survive the Closing and shall terminate on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date.

10.1 Seller’s Default. If, at or any time prior to Closing, Seller fails to perform in any material respect any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement which breach or default is not caused in whole or in part by a Purchaser’s Default (and, if such failure is other than a failure to deliver Seller’s Closing Deliveries (for which there shall be no notice or cure period), Seller fails to cure such condition failure within five (5) days after written notice of such failure is delivered by Purchaser to Seller) (a “Seller’s Default”), and no material Purchaser’s Default has occurred which remains uncured, Purchaser may elect, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to (a) terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to Seller, in which case the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser in accordance with Section 3.2.4, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for all reasonable, actual, third party out-of-pocket expenses (not to exceed $60,000.00) incurred by Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement within fifteen (15) days following the termination date, and the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive such termination, or (b) waive such default and proceed to Closing without any reduction in or setoff against the Purchase Price, or (c) obtain a court order for specific performance. IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER’S DIRECT OR INDIRECT MEMBERS, PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, OWNERS OR AFFILIATES, ANY OFFICER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF THE FOREGOING, OR ANY AFFILIATE OR CONTROLLING PERSON THEREOF HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR OTHER LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, COMMON LAW, STATUTE, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.

10.2 Purchaser’s Default. If at any time prior to Closing, Purchaser fails to perform in any material respect any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement which breach or default is not caused in whole or in part by a Seller’s Default (and, if such failure is other than a failure to deliver Purchaser’s Closing Deliveries (for which there shall be no notice or cure period), Purchaser fails to cure such condition failure within five (5) days after written notice of such failure is delivered by Seller to Purchaser) (a “Purchaser’s Default”), and no material Seller’s Default has occurred which remains uncured, then Seller may elect, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to (a) terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to Purchaser, in which case the Deposit shall be disbursed to Seller as liquidated damages in accordance with Section 3.2.5, and the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive such termination or (b) waive such default and proceed to Closing without any reduction in or setoff against the Purchase Price.

10.3 Liquidated Damages. The Parties acknowledge and agree that if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.2, the damages that Seller would sustain as a result of such termination would be difficult if not impossible to ascertain. Accordingly, the Parties agree that

 

40


Seller shall retain the Deposit as full and complete liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy for such termination; provided, however, that in addition to the Deposit, Seller shall retain all rights and remedies under this Agreement with respect to those obligations of Purchaser which expressly survive such termination. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.3 to the contrary, in the event of Purchaser’s Default or a termination of this Agreement, Seller shall have all remedies available at law or in equity in the event Purchaser or any party related to or affiliated with Purchaser is asserting any claims or right to the Property that would otherwise delay or prevent Seller from having clear, indefeasible and marketable title to the Property.

11. RISK OF LOSS

11.1 Casualty. If at any time after the Effective Date and prior to Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, the Assets or any portion thereof are damaged or destroyed by fire or any other casualty ( a “Casualty”), Seller shall give written notice of each such Casualty to Purchaser promptly after the occurrence of such Casualty, and if such Casualty caused the Assets and Property to be damaged or destroyed such that the cost of repair or replacement is reasonably likely to exceed Five Hundred Thousand and NO/100 Dollars ($500,000.00), Purchaser shall have the right to elect, by providing written notice to Seller within thirty (30) days after Purchaser’s receipt of Seller’s written notice of such Casualty, to (a) terminate this Agreement in its entirety, or (b) proceed to Closing, without terminating this Agreement, in which case the Seller shall (i) provide Purchaser with a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the applicable insurance deductible, and (ii) transfer and assign to Purchaser all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all proceeds from all casualty, business interruption, lost profits, and other applicable insurance policies maintained by Seller with respect to the Assets, except those proceeds specifically payable in connection with and allocable to business interruption and lost profits and costs incurred by Seller for the period prior to the Closing to the extent assignable and if such proceeds are not assignable, Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in an amount equal to the amount of such proceeds. If Purchaser fails to provide written notice of its election to Seller within such thirty (30) day time period, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed to Closing pursuant to clause (b) of the preceding sentence. If the Closing is scheduled to occur within Purchaser’s thirty (30) day election period, the Closing Date shall, upon Purchaser’s election, be postponed until the date which is five (5) Business Days after the expiration of such thirty (30) day election period. In the event that Purchaser terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.1, the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser. In the event that Seller proceeds to restore the affected Assets prior to Closing, such work shall be subject to Purchaser’s approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

11.2 Condemnation. If, at any time after the Effective Date and prior to Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement, any Governmental Authority commences any condemnation proceeding or other proceeding in eminent domain with respect to all or any portion of the Property (a “Condemnation”), Seller shall give written notice of such Condemnation to Purchaser promptly after Seller receives notice of such Condemnation, and if such Condemnation would give any tenant under its Tenant Lease the right to terminate any such Tenant Lease, then Purchaser shall have the right to elect, by providing written notice to Seller within thirty (30) days after Purchaser’s receipt of Seller’s written notice of such Condemnation,

 

41


to (i) terminate this Agreement in its entirety or (ii) proceed to Closing, without terminating this Agreement, in which case Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of any such Seller’s right, title and interest in all proceeds and awards from such Condemnation. If Purchaser fails to provide written notice of its election to Seller within such time period, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed to Closing pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. If the Closing is scheduled to occur within Purchaser’s thirty (30) day election period, the Closing shall, upon Purchaser’s election, be postponed until the date which is five (5) Business Days after the expiration of such thirty (30) day election period. In the event that Purchaser terminates this Agreement (or a portion thereof) pursuant to this Section 11.2, the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser.

12. SURVIVAL, INDEMNIFICATION AND RELEASE

12.1 Survival. The representations and warranties, covenants and obligations (including without limitations obligations of defense and indemnification) of Seller and Purchaser shall survive Closing or termination of this Agreement until the date which is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”). Each party shall have the right to bring an action against the other on the breach of a representation or warranty or covenant hereunder or in the documents delivered by Seller at the Closing, but only on the following conditions: (i) the party bringing the action for breach first learns of the breach after Closing and files such action within the Survival Period, and (ii) neither party shall have the right to bring a cause of action for a breach of a representation or warranty or covenant unless the damage to such party on account of such breach (individually or when combined with damages from other breaches) equals or exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($25,000). If the threshold set forth in the immediately preceding sentence is met, Seller shall be liable to indemnify Purchaser for the entire amount of Buyer’s damages including the initial $25,000.00. Neither party shall have any liability after Closing for the breach of a representation or warranty or covenant hereunder of which the other party hereto had actual knowledge as of Closing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any agreement contemplated by this Agreement, or any rights which Purchaser might otherwise have at law, equity, or by statute, whether based on contract or some other claim, Purchaser agrees that any liability of Seller to Purchaser will be limited to Three Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($350,000). The provisions of this Section 12.1 shall survive the Closing. Any breach of a representation or warranty or covenant that occurs prior to Closing shall be governed by Article 10. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Retained Liabilities of Seller shall not be subject to the Survival Period.

12.2 Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 12 and any other express provision of this Agreement, Seller shall indemnify, save, insure, pay, defend and hold harmless Purchaser’s Indemnitees from and against any Indemnification Loss incurred by any Purchaser’s Indemnitee to the extent resulting from (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of Seller in this Agreement, (ii) any breach by Seller of any of its covenants or obligation under this Agreement, and (iii) any Retained Liabilities.

12.3 Indemnification by Purchaser. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 12, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller’s Indemnitees from and against any Indemnification Loss incurred by Seller’s Indemnitee to the extent resulting from (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of Purchaser in this Agreement, (ii) any breach by Purchaser of any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement, and (iii) any Assumed Liabilities.

 

42


12.4 Indemnification Procedure. Notice of Indemnification Claim. If any of Seller’s Indemnitees or Purchaser’s Indemnitees (as the case may be) (each, an “Indemnitee”) is entitled to defense or indemnification under any other provision in this Agreement (each, an “Indemnification Claim”), the Party required to provide defense indemnification to such Indemnitee (the “Indemnitor”) shall not be obligated to defend, indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnitee unless and until such Indemnitee provides written notice to such Indemnitor promptly after such Indemnitee has actual knowledge of any facts or circumstances on which such Indemnification Claim is based or a Third-Party Claim is made on which such Indemnification Claim is based, describing in reasonable detail such facts and circumstances or Third-Party Claim with respect to such Indemnification Claim.

12.4.1 Resolution of Indemnification Claim Not Involving Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnification Claim does not involve a Third-Party Claim and is disputed by the Indemnitor, the dispute shall be resolved by litigation or other means of alternative dispute resolution as the Parties may agree in writing.

12.4.2 Resolution of Indemnification Claim Involving Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnification Claim involves a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall have the right (but not the obligation) to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, at its cost and expense, and shall use good faith efforts consistent with prudent business judgment to defend such Third-Party Claim, provided that (i) the counsel for the Indemnitor who shall conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee (unless selected by Indemnitor’s insurance company, in which case Indemnitee shall have no such approval rights), (ii) the Indemnitee, at its cost and expense, may participate in, but shall not control, the defense of such Third-Party Claim, and (iii) the Indemnitor shall not enter into any settlement or other agreement which requires any performance by the Indemnitee, other than the payment of money which shall be paid by the Indemnitor. The Indemnitee shall not enter into any settlement agreement with respect to the Indemnification Claim, without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent. If the Indemnitor elects not to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall have the right to retain the defense of such Third-Party Claim and shall use good faith efforts consistent with prudent business judgment to defend such Third-Party Claim in an effective and cost-efficient manner.

12.4.3 Accrual of Indemnification Obligation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall have no right to indemnification against the Indemnitor for any Indemnification Claim which (i) does not involve a Third-Party Claim but is disputed by Indemnitor until such time as such dispute is resolved by written agreement or by a final, non-appealable order of court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) which involves a Third-Party Claim until such time as such Third-Party Claim is concluded, including any appeals with respect thereto in the case of a claim in litigation.

12.8 Sale “As Is, Where Is. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that upon Closing, Seller shall sell and convey to Purchaser and Purchaser shall accept the Assets “AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS,” except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement and any document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser has not relied and will not rely on, and Seller has not made and is not liable for or bound by, any express or implied warranties, guarantees, statements, representations or information pertaining to the Assets or relating thereto (including specifically, without limitation, property information packages distributed with respect to the Assets) made or furnished by Seller, or any property manager, real estate broker, agent or third party representing or purporting to represent Seller, to whomever made or given, directly or indirectly, orally or in writing. Purchaser represents that it is a knowledgeable, experienced and sophisticated purchaser of real estate and that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, it is relying solely on its own expertise and that of Purchaser’s consultants in purchasing the Assets and shall make an independent verification of the accuracy of any documents and information provided by Seller. Purchaser will conduct such inspections and investigations of the Assets as Purchaser deems necessary, including, but not limited to, the physical and environmental conditions thereof, and shall rely upon same. By failing to terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser acknowledges that Seller has afforded Purchaser a full opportunity to conduct such investigations of the Assets as Purchaser deemed necessary to satisfy itself as to the condition of the Assets and the existence or non-existence or curative action to be taken with respect to any Hazardous Materials on or discharged from the Assets, and will rely solely upon same and not upon any information provided by or on behalf of Seller or its agents or employees with respect thereto, other than such representations, warranties and covenants of Seller as are expressly set forth in this Agreement. Upon Closing, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser shall assume the risk that adverse matters, including, but not limited to, adverse physical or construction defects or adverse environmental, health or safety conditions, may not have been revealed by Purchaser’s inspections and investigations. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller that: (a) Purchaser is represented by legal counsel in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement; and (b) Purchaser is purchasing the Property for business, commercial, investment or other similar purpose and not for use as Purchaser’s residence. Purchaser waives any and all rights or remedies it may have or be entitled to, deriving from disparity in size or from any significant disparate bargaining position in relation to Seller.

Purchaser acknowledges that it will have the opportunity to inspect the Property and Assets during the Inspection Period, and during such period, observe its physical characteristics and existing conditions and the opportunity to conduct such investigation and study on and of the Property and adjacent areas as Purchaser deems necessary. Except for the Retained Liabilities and Seller’s express representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement including those representations and covenants which expressly survive closing, upon Closing Purchaser shall be deemed to FOREVER RELEASE AND DISCHARGE Seller from all responsibility and liability, including without limitation, liabilities and responsibilities for the lessor’s obligations under the Tenant Leases relating to the physical, environmental or legal compliance status of the Assets or Property, whether arising before or after the Effective Date, and liabilities under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act Of 1980 (42 U.S.C. Sections 9601 et seq.), as amended (“CERCLA”), regarding the condition, valuation, salability or utility of the Assets or Property, or its suitability for any purpose whatsoever (including, but not limited to, with respect to the presence in the soil, air, structures and surface and subsurface waters, of Hazardous Materials or other materials or substances that have been or may in the future be determined to be toxic, hazardous, undesirable or subject to regulation and that may need to be specially treated, handled and/or removed from the Property under current or future federal, state and local laws, regulations or guidelines, and any structural and geologic conditions, subsurface soil and water conditions and solid and hazardous waste and Hazardous Materials on, under, adjacent to or otherwise affecting the Property). Except for the Retained Liabilities and Seller’s express representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement including those representations and covenants which expressly survive closing, by Closing this transaction, Purchaser will be deemed to have WAIVED any and all objections and complaints (including, but not limited to, federal, state and local statutory and common law based actions, and any private right of action under any federal, state or local laws, regulations or guidelines to which the Tenant Property is or may be subject, including, but not limited to, CERCLA) concerning the physical characteristics and any existing conditions of the Property, including, without limitation, the lessor’s obligations under the Leases relating to the physical, environmental or legal compliance status of the Tenant Property, whether arising before or after the Effective Date. Except for the Retained Liabilities and Seller’s express representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement including those representations and covenants which expressly survive closing, by Closing this transaction, Purchaser further hereby assumes the risk of changes in applicable laws and regulations relating to past, present and future environmental conditions on the Tenant Property and the risk that adverse physical characteristics and conditions, including, without limitation, the presence of Hazardous Materials or other contaminants, may not have been revealed by its investigation.

12.10 Survival. The terms and conditions of this Section 12 shall expressly survive the Closing. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the disclaimers and other agreements set forth herein are an integral part of this Agreement and that Seller would not have agreed to sell the Assets to Purchaser for the Purchase Price without the disclaimers and other agreements set forth above.

51


affidavit pertaining hereto, and any such recordation of this Agreement or memorandum or affidavit by a Party without the prior written consent of the other Party shall constitute a default hereunder by recording Party, whereupon the non-defaulting Party shall have the remedies set forth in Article 10 hereof.
