If Purchaser does not respond in writing to Sellers request for approval or disapproval of any such action within ten (10) Business Days after Purchasers receipt of Sellers request, Purchaser shall be conclusively deemed to have approved of such action. Purchaser hereby agrees that all such requests by Seller shall be directed to the attention of:
CHP Partners, LP
450 South Orange Avenue
Orlando, Florida 32801
Attn: Jeff Sirolly, Esq. and James Schmid
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may take any of the foregoing actions to the extent such actions are mandatory (for example, a Lease renewal pursuant to the exercise of an existing option right) without Purchasers consent; provided, however, that to the extent any of the economic terms of such mandatory agreements are discretionary and not explicit, such terms shall be subject to Purchasers prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any new lease or lease amendment which Seller is permitted to enter into hereunder and does enter into shall be deemed a Lease for purposes of
4
this Agreement (as defined in Section 7.1.4 hereof), and any new contract or contract amendment which Seller is permitted to enter into hereunder and does enter into shall be deemed a Contract for purposes of this Agreement (as such term is defined in Section 7.1.6 hereof).
On or before the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing if Purchaser elects to assume at Closing any of the Contracts (the Assumed Contracts). Any Contracts which are not Assumed Contracts shall be effectively terminated by Seller on or before the Closing Date, and Seller shall be responsible for all termination fees or penalties and all sums due under such terminated Contracts prior to the Closing Date. The parties acknowledge that any existing property management agreement will not be assumed by Purchaser.
4.4 Insurance. Seller shall maintain in full force and effect its existing insurance coverages on the MOB Property.
4.5 Notices.

5. | STATUS OF TITLE TO PROPERTY |
5.1 State of Title.
At Closing, Seller shall convey to Purchaser the MOB Property, subject only to: (i) those covenants, conditions and restrictions of record which are reviewed and approved by Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.3 below, (ii) ad valorem taxes and special assessments not yet due and payable with respect to the MOB Property, (iii) the Leases, and (iv) the Ground Lease (collectively Permitted Exceptions).
5.2 Preliminary Evidence of Title.
5.2.1 Title Commitment. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser within five (5) Business Days from and after the Effective Date Sellers current title insurance policy on the Property. Thereafter, Purchaser shall obtain a current commitment for an owners title insurance policy (the Title Commitment), in the amount of the Purchase Price, issued by a national title insurer selected by Purchaser (the Title Insurer).
5.2.2 Survey. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser within five (5) Business Days from and after the Effective Date a copy of the most recent survey of the Premises heretofore obtained by Seller (the Survey). Purchaser shall have the right to either update the Survey or to cause a new survey of the MOB Property to be prepared by a surveyor selected by Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period (as defined in Section 9.1.1 hereof).
5.3 Defects. If the Title Commitment (or any revision or update thereof) or Survey (or any replacement, revision or update thereof obtained by Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Investigation Period) discloses exceptions to title which are objectionable to Purchaser (a Defect), Purchaser shall so notify Seller prior to the expiration of the Investigation Period. Seller shall have fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice to have each Defect corrected to the satisfaction of Purchaser, and if such 15 day period extends beyond Closing, then the date for Closing [and the date for closing under each of the Other Contracts (as hereinafter defined)] shall be extended accordingly. If
5
within the time specified, Seller fails to have each Defect deleted or corrected as aforesaid, Purchaser may, at its option, either (i) terminate this Agreement, in which event this Agreement, without further action of the parties, shall become null and void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except for those obligations which expressly survive termination of this Agreement, or (ii) elect to consummate the Closing and accept title to the MOB Property subject to all such exceptions to title (in which event, all such exceptions to title shall be deemed approved by Purchaser and shall be Permitted Exceptions). If Purchaser fails to make either such election, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected option (ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall cure (by causing the same to be released at or prior to Closing) any Defects relating to (i) any security instruments securing the Loan, (ii) any liens or other matters created by or through Seller in violation of this Agreement, and (iii) any judgments against Seller affecting the MOB Property; and failure to cure any such Defects shall constitute a default by Seller hereunder, and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Purchaser shall have the right to apply all or part of the Purchase Price to payment in full of the Defects set forth in this sentence.
5.4 Additional Defects.
From and after the date of the Title Commitment, Purchaser may from time to time make further examinations of the title to the Property and update the Survey, and Purchaser may object to any matters of title first appearing of record after the effective date of such Title Commitment by giving Seller written notice of any such defects or objections. Seller shall thereafter have until the Closing Date (or such longer period as Purchaser, in its sole discretion, consents to in writing) in which to cure or terminate any such defect or objection. If Seller is unable or refuses to remove or cure such additional title objections, then Purchaser shall be entitled to exercise the same rights enumerated in Section 5.3 hereof.
6. | CLOSING |
6.1.1 Closing Date. The Closing of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement (that is, the payment of the Purchase Price, the transfer of title to the MOB Property, and the satisfaction of all other terms and conditions of this Agreement) shall occur on the later to occur of (i) thirty-fifth (35th) day following the last day of the Inspection Period, (ii) the tenth (10th) day following the expiration or earlier termination of any right of first refusal described in this Agreement and in any of the Other Contracts (as defined in Section 9.3.2 hereof) or (iii) at such other time as Seller and Purchaser shall agree in writing. The Closing shall occur through an escrow with Escrow Agent under which all monies and documents required to be delivered hereunder shall be deposited in escrow in accordance with reasonable and customary closing escrow instructions delivered jointly or separately by Seller and Purchaser. The Closing Date shall be the date of Closing. If the Closing Date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the Closing Date shall be the next Business Day (as hereinafter defined).

If Purchaser elects to extend the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, on or before the originally scheduled Closing Date, deliver to Escrow Agent the sum of $632,350.00 by wire transfer to be held by Escrow Agent as additional Earnest Money. It shall be a condition to Purchasers right to extend the Closing Date under this Section 6.1.2.1 that Purchaser shall have
6
simultaneously extended the Closing Date under each of the Other Contracts (as defined in Section 9.3.2 hereof) to the same date and shall have deposited with Escrow Agent the additional Earnest Money required for such extension under each of the Other Contracts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon any extension of the Closing, the Closing shall occur at any time during the 90 day period upon at least thirty-five (35) days prior notice from Purchaser to Seller.

9.1 Purchasers Conditions Precedent. The obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement are contingent upon each of the following, the failure of any of which shall, upon written notice by Purchaser to Seller, render this Agreement null and void except for those obligations which expressly survive termination of this Agreement:
9.1.1 Inspection. Purchaser shall have until 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on October 10, 2014 (the Inspection Period) within which to evaluate the MOB Property. During the Inspection Period: (a) Seller shall make available to Purchaser for examination by Purchaser and Purchasers agents and representatives, by electronic delivery, or if the same is not commercially reasonable, at the Premises or at the office of Seller or, any of the following records and documentation relating to the MOB Property within Sellers possession and control: (i) existing environmental reports; (ii) existing surveys and title policies and copies of title exceptions; (iii) building plans, drawings, or specifications, if any, (but Seller shall not be required to copy the same for Purchaser or to distribute such material by electronic means); (iv) all existing service and maintenance contracts, equipment licenses,

warranties, and equipment leases; (v) all existing leases, subleases, and licenses, and any and all amendments, assignments or modifications thereto, and all letters of credit posted as security by tenants; (vi) copies of all certificates of insurance delivered by tenants of the MOB Property, and copies of all insurance claims at the MOB Property for 2013 and 2014 year to date; (vii) schedule of all capital improvement projects and tenant improvement build-outs underway at the MOB Property, including what has been paid to date on the projects and estimated date of completion; (viii) copies of all correspondence between Seller and tenants of the MOB Property regarding disputes with respect to operating expense charges or other charges under leases at MOB Property, if any; (ix) leasing or other commission agreements, if any; (x) accounts payable and other obligations relating to the MOB Property, a copy of the MOB Propertys tenant operating expense reconciliations for 2012 and 2013, and 2014 actual operating expense incurred by Seller to date; (xi) ad valorem tax bills for the MOB Property for the last three (3) tax years and utility bills for the calendar year 2014; (xii) operating statements for the MOB Property for 2012 and 2013 and year to date 2014; (xiii) a true, accurate and complete rent roll for the MOB Property and schedule of security deposits for the year 2014; and (xiv) a list of any pending litigation affecting the MOB Property; (b) Purchaser and its agents, engineers, surveyors, appraisers, auditors and other representatives shall have the right to enter upon the Premises to inspect, examine, survey, obtain engineering inspections, and perform all other examinations and activities related to any of the foregoing in any respect and for any other reasonable purpose related to the purchase of the Property which, in the opinion of Purchaser, is necessary to determine the suitability of the MOB Property for the uses intended by Purchaser; and (c) conduct interviews with the tenants of the Premises, provided Purchaser has given no less than forty-eight (48) hours notice prior to any such interview, and provided further that Seller shall have the right to be present at all such interviews. If Purchaser determines in its sole and absolute discretion that the MOB Property is unsuitable for its purposes and notifies Seller of such decision prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for the indemnity obligations set forth below, and any other obligations herein which by the express terms hereof survive termination.

The foregoing indemnity shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.
Furthermore, Purchaser agrees to maintain and have in effect commercial general liability insurance (occurrence type of coverage) covering the actions of itself and its representatives, consultants,

9.1.2 Intentionally Omitted.
9.1.3 Representations. Each and every representation and warranty of Seller set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 above shall be materially true and correct as of Closing, as modified by any Pre-Closing Disclosures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller makes any Pre-Closing Disclosure to Purchaser, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice thereof to Seller on or before the earlier of (i) the Closing Date, or (ii) the fifth (5th) Business Day after Purchaser receives written notice of such Pre-Closing Disclosure [and if such day is after the scheduled Closing Date, Closing shall be extended accordingly under this Contract and the Other Contracts (as defined herein)].
9.1.4 Title Policy. The Title Insurer shall be irrevocably committed to issue upon Closing an American Land Title Association (ALTA) Owners Policy of Title Insurance in a form providing comprehensive coverage as reasonably selected by Purchaser (the Title Policy), insuring Purchaser as leasehold owner of the Premises, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, in the amount of the Purchase Price.
9.1.5 No Default. Seller shall not be in default under any of its material obligations hereunder.
9.1.6 Estoppel Certificates.

Seller shall not request Estoppel Certificate from tenants until Purchaser delivers to Seller a written request to obtain such Estoppel Certificates. The Estoppel Certificates shall be in the form of Schedule 9.1.6 attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (the Form Estoppel Certificate), provided that reasonable changes to the form of the same requested by Purchaser shall be incorporated if provided prior to the end of the Inspection Period. The Estoppel Certificates executed by tenants shall be in substantially the form of the
20
Form Estoppel Certificate, except that any estoppel certificate shall be deemed an acceptable Estoppel Certificate if it contains all the information the tenant is required to give pursuant to its Lease. In the event that Seller is unable to provide to Purchaser the required Estoppel Certificates on or before Closing, Purchaser may either: (a) elect not to purchase the MOB Property by written notification to Seller, at which time this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for the indemnity obligations and other obligations which by the express terms hereof survive termination; or (b) elect to purchase the MOB Property notwithstanding Purchasers failure to receive the required Estoppel Certificates, in which event Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the condition contained in this Section 9.1.5 (and Purchasers failure to elect option (a) above in writing prior to Closing shall be deemed an election of this option (b)). Further Seller shall request a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement from any tenants required by Purchasers lender; provided, however that, following the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall have the right and responsibility to reasonably pursue execution and delivery of such subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements from such tenants.
9.1.7 Ground Lessor Estoppel. Purchaser shall have received an executed estoppel certificate (the Ground Lessor Estoppel) from the current Lessor under the Ground Lease dated no more than thirty (30) days prior to Closing. The Ground Lessor Estoppel shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to Purchaser.
9.2 Sellers Conditions Precedent. The obligations of Seller under this Agreement are contingent upon any one or more of the following, the failure of any of which shall, upon written notice by Seller to Purchaser, render this Agreement null and void except for those obligations which expressly survive termination of this Agreement:
9.2.1 No Default. Purchaser shall not be in default under any of its material obligations hereunder.
9.3 Mutual Conditions Precedent. The obligations of each of Seller and Purchaser under this Agreement are contingent upon each of the following, the failure of which shall give either Seller or Purchaser, by written notice to the other, the right to declare this Agreement null and void, except for those obligations which expressly survive termination of this Agreement.
9.3.1 Approval by Limited Partner of Seller. Seller shall have received approval of the sale of the MOB Property to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement from limited partners in Seller owning at least fifty-one percent (51%) of all limited partnership interests in Seller. Seller shall submit this Agreement to the limited partners of Seller for such vote within ten (10) Business Days following the Effective Date and shall advise Buyer of the results of such vote no later than the end of the Inspection Period.
9.3.2 Simultaneous Closing Under Other Contracts. Purchaser and affiliates of Seller have executed those certain Purchase and Sale Agreements of even date more particularly described on Schedule 9.2.4 attached hereto and made a part hereof (collectively the Other Contracts). It shall be a condition precedent to Purchasers and Sellers obligation to close under this Agreement that the purchase and sale of each of the properties described in the Other Contracts shall close simultaneously with the Closing under this Agreement, unless the purchase and sale under any Other Contract does not close due to Purchasers election to terminate the Other Contract due to the occurrence of a casualty or condemnation of the real property covered by such Other Contract which represents a Material Event. Except as provided in the preceding sentence with respect to a termination due to casualty or condemnation, in the event that either the Purchaser or any seller has the right to
21
terminate any of the Other Contracts, then Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, shall simultaneously have the right to terminate this Agreement, and upon any such election by Purchaser or Seller to terminate this Agreement, the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser. Any default by Purchaser under any of the Other Contracts shall be deemed a default by Purchaser under this Agreement and in such event, Seller shall have rights set forth in Section 11.2. Any default by any Seller under any of the Other Contracts shall be deemed a default by Seller under this Agreement and in such event Purchaser shall have the rights set forth in Section 11.1.
9.3.3 Reimbursement of Due Diligence Costs. If Seller does not receive approval of its limited partners as required by Section 9.3.1 above, then Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for any third party due diligence costs incurred by Purchaser with respect to the MOB Property, but in no event in excess of Thirty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($30,000.00). As a condition to such reimbursement, Purchaser shall provide Seller with evidence of the amount of such due diligence costs.
10. | BROKERAGE |
Seller has engaged Healthcare Real Estate Capital (HREC) as its broker in connection with this Agreement and shall be responsible for the payment of any fees to HREC pursuant to a separate agreement. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, neither Seller nor Purchaser has engaged any broker in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any and all claims of all brokers and finders claiming by, through or under Seller (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees), and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all, claims of all brokers and finders claiming by, through or under Purchaser (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees). The provisions of this section shall survive termination of this Agreement or Closing.
11. | DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES |
11.1 Seller Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if Seller fails to perform in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then, as Purchasers sole and exclusive remedy hereunder and at Purchasers option, Purchaser may either (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event this Agreement shall be null and void, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except as set forth in Sections 9.1.1, 10, 12.6 and 12.16 and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable out-of-pocket due diligence costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement up to but not in excess of $75,000.00, or (b) upon notice to Seller not more than ten (10) days after Purchaser becomes aware of such failure, and provided an action is filed within six (6) months thereafter, Purchaser may seek specific performance of this Agreement, but not damages. Purchasers failure to seek specific performance as aforesaid shall constitute its election to proceed under clause (a) above. If specific performance is not available to Purchaser due to an intentional act of Seller (i.e., Seller has sold the MOB Property to another party), or if, upon the exercise of its right to specific performance, Purchaser shall not receive substantially the benefit of its bargain due to an intentional act of Seller (i.e., the condition of MOB Property, or the condition of title to the MOB Property, has materially changed since the Effective Date), or if Purchaser has terminated this Agreement due to the fraud or intentional material misrepresentation by Seller, then in any such case, in addition to terminating this Agreement, Purchaser may seek and collect damages.
11.2 Purchaser Default. If Purchaser is in default or breaches the terms or provisions of this Agreement, then Seller, as Sellers sole and exclusive remedy, shall be entitled to retain the Earnest Money as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser agrees that nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting or limiting Seller from pursuing any
22
available remedy, in law or in equity, for Purchasers indemnification obligations under this Agreement, and, any such recovery by Seller for Purchasers indemnification obligations shall not be limited to the Earnest Money. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that it is impossible to estimate more precisely the amount of damages which Seller might suffer upon Purchasers default and that said full liquidated damages are a reasonable pre-estimate of Sellers probable loss in the event of a Purchaser default. Sellers receipt of said full liquidated damages is intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages. Purchaser hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) sue Seller or seek or claim a refund of all or any part of said full liquidated damages on the ground that said full liquidated damages are unreasonable in amount or exceed Sellers actual damages or that the delivery of said full liquidated damages to Seller constitutes a penalty and not agreed upon and reasonable liquidated damages. If Seller is entitled to the Earnest Money as liquidated damages, and to the extent Seller has not already received the Earnest Money, the Earnest Money shall be immediately paid to Seller by the Escrow Agent upon receipt of written notice from Seller that a Purchaser default has occurred under this Agreement, and Purchaser agrees to take all such actions and to execute and to deliver all such documents necessary or appropriate to effect such payment of the Earnest Money to Seller as Sellers liquidated damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers recourse for any surviving indemnification obligation of Purchaser is not and will not be limited to the Earnest Money and Seller shall be entitled to pursue a claim against Purchaser therefor.
11.3 Cure Rights. Should either party be in breach of or default under or otherwise fail to comply with any of the terms of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the defaulting party shall have five (5) Business Days after written notice from the other party to cure such breach. The Closing Date (and the closing date under the Other Contracts) shall be extended to the extent necessary to afford the defaulting party the full five (5) Business Day period within which to cure such default, provided that if the Closing Date shall have been once extended as a result of default by a party, such party shall not be entitled to any further notice or cure rights with respect to that or any other default.
11.4 Rights after Closing. After Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, have such rights and remedies as are available at law or in equity, except that neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be entitled to recover from the other consequential or special damages.
12. | MISCELLANEOUS. |
12.1 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any interest hereunder shall be assigned or transferred by Purchaser or Seller, except to an entity which is owned and controlled by such party or in which such party or an affiliate or related entity owns an interest. As used in this Agreement, the terms Seller and Purchaser shall be deemed to include any permitted assignee or other transferee of any Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be. Upon any such transfer by a Seller or Purchaser, such original Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall remain liable for the obligations of Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, under this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns.
12.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Seller and Purchaser with respect to the purchase and sale of the MOB Property and shall not be modified or amended except in a written document signed by Seller and Purchaser. Any prior agreement or understanding between Seller and Purchaser concerning the purchase and sale of the MOB Property is hereby rendered null and void.
23
12.3 Time. Time is of the essence of this Agreement. In the computation of any period of time provided for in this Agreement or by law, the day of the act or event from which the period of time runs shall be excluded, and the last day of such period shall be included, unless it is a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, in which case the period shall be deemed to run until the end of the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday.
12.4 Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein must be in writing and delivered in Electronic Format, by hand or overnight courier service or mailed by certified or registered mail at the respective address or email address set forth below. Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, are deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by Electronic Format are deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, are deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient), provided that notices sent by Electronic Format are sent concurrently by hand delivery or overnight courier.

12.6 No Recordation. Neither this Agreement nor any memorandum thereof shall be recorded against the MOB Property.
12.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of identical counterparts, including facsimile counterparts, any or all of which may contain the signatures of fewer than all of the parties but all of which shall be taken together as a single instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart.
12.8 Waiver. The failure by either party to enforce against the other any term of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such partys right to enforce against the other party the same or any other term in the future.
12.9 Severability. If any one or more of the provisions hereof shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision were not herein contained.
12.10 Further Assurances. Each party agrees to perform, execute and deliver, at and after the Closing, such further actions and documents as may be reasonably necessary or requested to more fully effectuate the purposes, terms and intent of this Agreement and the conveyances contemplated herein.
12.11 Attorneys Fees.

The parties acknowledge that each party and its counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments or schedules hereto. The captions preceding the text of each Section are included for convenience of reference only and shall be disregarded in the construction and interpretation of this agreement.
12.13 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall benefit only Purchaser and Seller, and no person or entity other than any affiliate or affiliated entity of Purchaser shall have any rights hereunder.
25
12.14 As Is. Purchaser acknowledges that it has inspected or will inspect the MOB Property and that it accepts same in its as is condition subject to use, ordinary wear and tear and natural deterioration. Purchaser further acknowledges that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither Seller nor any agent or representative of Seller has made, and Seller is not liable for or bound in any manner by, any express or implied warranties, guaranties, promises, statements, inducements, representations or information pertaining to the MOB Property. Nothing contained in this Section 12.14 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall release or relieve Seller of any obligation or liability Seller may have to Purchaser under any closing document with respect to the period through Closing.
12.15 No Disclosure. Except as may be required by law, without the prior written consent of the other party, and unless the Closing occurs, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall disclose to any third party the existence of this Agreement or any term or condition thereof or the results of any inspections or studies undertaken in connection herewith, except as shall be required to engage the assistance or participation of such party in connection with this transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 12.15 shall not apply to attorneys, advisors, consultants, lenders, or lenders counsel of either Purchaser or Seller.
12.16 Purchaser Reports. If for any reason Purchaser does not consummate the Closing (other than a default by Seller), then Purchaser shall, upon Sellers request, assign and transfer to Seller all of its right, title and interest in and to any and all studies, reports, surveys and other information, data and/or documents relating to the MOB Property or any part thereof prepared for Purchaser by third parties, and shall deliver to Seller copies of all of the foregoing (such copies to be made at Sellers expense). Purchasers delivery of such reports shall be without any representations or warranties whatsoever as to the matters set forth therein, and Seller shall not be entitled to rely on any such reports.
12.17 Purchase Price Allocation. The Purchase Price shall be allocated between real and personal property for federal, state and local transfer tax purposes as may be determined by Purchaser in its sole discretion so long as no more than $20,000 shall be allocated to personal property. Should Purchaser desire to allocate more than $20,000 to personal property, such allocation must be approved by Seller. For all other purposes, each party may allocate in its sole and absolute discretion.
12.18 Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent agrees to hold, keep and deliver the Earnest Money and all other sums delivered to Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Escrow Agent shall not be entitled to any fees or compensation for its services hereunder. Escrow Agent shall be liable only to hold said sums and deliver the same to the parties named herein in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, it being expressly understood that by acceptance of this Agreement Escrow Agent is acting in the capacity as a depository only and shall not be liable or responsible to anyone for any damages, losses or expenses unless same shall have been caused by the gross negligence or willful malfeasance of Escrow Agent.
In the event of any disagreement between Purchaser and Seller resulting in any adverse claims and demands being made in connection with or for the monies involved herein or affected hereby, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to refuse to comply with any such claims or demands so long as such disagreement may continue; and in so refusing Escrow Agent shall make no delivery or other disposition of any of the monies then held by it under the terms of this Agreement, and in so doing Escrow Agent shall not become liable to anyone for such refusal; and Escrow Agent shall be entitled to continue to refrain from acting until (a) the rights of the adverse claimants shall have been finally adjudicated in a court of competent jurisdiction of the monies involved herein or affected hereby, or (b) all differences shall have been adjusted by agreement between Seller and Purchaser, and Escrow Agent shall have a period not exceeding three (3) business days after receipt by Escrow Agent of any notice or request to
26
perform any act or disburse any portion of the monies held by Escrow Agent under the terms of this Agreement. Further, Escrow Agent shall have the right at all times to pay all sums held by it (x) to the appropriate party under the terms hereof, provided no dispute exists between the parties hereto, or (y) into any court of competent jurisdiction after a dispute between or among the parties has arisen, whereupon Escrow Agents obligations hereunder shall terminate.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the other provisions of this Section 12.18, prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, the escrow established hereunder shall be a sole order escrow for the benefit of Purchaser (meaning that Escrow Agent shall act solely in accordance with the instructions of Purchaser until the expiration of the Inspection Period in respect of the Earnest Money). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that on or prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser delivers notice to Escrow Agent stating that Purchaser has elected to terminate this Agreement, then Escrow Agent shall refund to Purchaser the Earnest Money without any requirement that Escrow Agent first notify or obtain any approval or consent of Seller (and Escrow Agent agrees that it shall not be permitted to, and shall not, follow any conflicting instructions given by Seller or any third party with regard thereto). Seller agrees in such instance not to deliver any conflicting instructions to Escrow Agent for any or no reason and hereby instructs Escrow Agent to act in respect of the Earnest Money solely in accordance with Purchasers instructions on or prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period.
Seller and Purchaser jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent from any and all costs, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, that Escrow Agent may incur in its compliance of and in good faith with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that this indemnity shall not extend to any acts of gross negligence or willful malfeasance on the part of the Escrow Agent. The provisions of this Section 12.18 shall survive Closing.
12.19 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, ANY RIGHT THAT EITHER PARTY OR THEIR HEIRS, PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVES, SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR IN RESPECT OF ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN), OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OF THE PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.
12.20 Disclosure of Confidential Information. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the existence of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement and any other information disclosed by Seller, Purchaser or any of their agents or employees when inspecting the MOB Property, or any other documents, materials, data or other information with respect to the MOB Property which is not generally known to the public shall be confidential except to the extent already within the public domain or as otherwise required by applicable law (including but not limited to in connection with public disclosure obligations required by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may reveal and deliver Seller-provided due diligence materials, Purchasers due diligence reports, and all other documents, information, and materials concerning the MOB Property to its agents, representatives, lenders, investors, principals, and affiliates. Nothing herein shall restrict or limit Seller or Purchaser from communicating with tenants, lenders, contract parties, owners associations, or government officials or bodies in connection with obtaining estoppels or other required consents or approvals, as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, or Purchaser from contacting Sellers company officials, property
27
engineers and architects, and other third-party consultants assisting Purchaser in its investigation of the MOB Property, subject to Section 9.1.1. Nothing herein shall restrict or limit Purchaser from communicating the existence and progress of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to its lender or from making disclosures required under applicable law including, but not limited to securities-related filings.
12.21 Public Announcements. Prior to Closing, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have the right to make a public announcement regarding the transactions described in this Agreement without the prior approval of the other party. Seller and Purchaser shall approve the timing, form and substance of any such public announcement, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except if a party is required to make a public announcement under applicable law, in which case no such approval by any other party shall be required.
12.22 Post-Closing Audit. Seller acknowledges and agrees to assist Purchaser in conducting, no later than seventy-four (74) days following the Closing Date, an audit of property-level financials for the MOB Property as specified by Rule 3-14 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. In connection therewith, Seller agrees to obtain and provide to the auditors, at no cost to Seller, any and all data and financial information, except for information constituting Excluded Assets, in the possession of Seller that are necessary or required by the auditors in connection with their preparation and conducting of the foregoing audit. The rights and obligations of Purchaser and Seller under this Section 12.22 shall survive Closing.
