7.               Purchaser has received a copy of the Loan Documents and such other documents and information that it has requested, and has been afforded an ample opportunity to review such materials.  Purchaser acknowledges that it has conducted an independent investigation of such matters and any other matter it deems necessary and has had the opportunity to receive such information as in its judgment is necessary for it to make an informed investment decision, and has not relied upon Seller for any investigation or assessment to evaluate the transaction contemplated hereby, and Purchaser is not relying on any representation or warranty, express or implied, by Seller except as expressly set forth herein.

 

Seller and Purchaser hereby agree as follows:

 

1.               Each party hereto shall execute and deliver further documents or instruments as may be reasonably requested by the other party in order to effect the intent and purposes of transactions represented by this Agreement.  Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for all reasonable costs incurred by Seller for any such requests.  This Agreement shall be binding on, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

 



 

2.               The sale of the Loan to Purchaser shall constitute a reaffirmation by Seller and Purchaser on and as of the date of such sale of the foregoing representations and warranties, which shall survive the signing, and delivery of this Agreement and the sale of the Loan.

 

3.               Upon payment of the Purchase Price at Closing, Seller shall:  (i) deliver executed originals of Exhibits B through F inclusive, or that form of said exhibits deemed necessary by a nationally recognized title insurance company to effect an absolute assignment and transfer of the Note and Loan Documents from Seller to Purchaser, as well as such other sale and transfer documents as may be customary and reasonable; (ii) execute such documents and take such actions as are necessary to deliver any funds in, or transfer control over, any escrow accounts held in connection with the Loan; and (iii) deliver the original Note and all other original Loan Documents in Seller’s possession or control.
