2. Due Diligence Period.

 

(a) For purposes hereof, the “Due Diligence Period” shall mean the period beginning on the Effective Date and expiring at 5:00 p.m. eastern time on the sixtieth (60th) day after the Effective Date, unless extended pursuant to the following sentence. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Purchaser shall have the one-time right to extend the initial 60-day Due Diligence Period for an additional thirty (30) days upon (i) written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the initial 60-day Due Diligence Period and (ii) Purchaser’s deposit within three (3) days after the end of the initial 60-day Due Diligence Period of the additional sum of Ten Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) by wire transfer to the Escrow Agent (the “Due Diligence Extension Deposit”).

 

(b) Within five (5) business days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Purchaser: (i) any existing title policies for the Property; (ii) copies of the property tax billings associated with the Property for the last two (2) years; (iii) any surveys or plats, including any ALTA survey of the Property, currently in Seller’s possession or control; (iv) any property or building condition reports in Seller’s possession or control with respect to the Property; (v) any soil, engineering or environmental reports in Seller’s possession or control with respect to the Property and (vi) copies of the Lease, Sublease and any other contract or agreement with third parties that are material to the operation of the Facility (collectively, the “Due Diligence Materials”).

 

(c) Purchaser shall have the right to obtain a new or updated title commitment and/or survey for the Property and Purchaser shall provide copies of any such updates to Seller within five (5) business days after its receipt thereof. At least five (5) business days prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall give Seller notice of any title exceptions or other matters set forth in Seller’s title policies or surveys or any updates thereof as to which Purchaser objects in its sole and absolute discretion. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remove, satisfy, cause the Title Company to insure over or otherwise cure any such exception or other matter as to which Purchaser so objects except that Seller shall be obligated to pay any mortgages, liens or delinquent taxes at or prior to Closing. If Seller is unable or unwilling to take such actions as may be required to cure such objections, Seller shall give Purchaser notice thereof, it being understood and agreed that the failure of Seller to give such notice within three (3) business days after its receipt of Purchaser’s notice of objection shall be deemed an election by Seller not to remedy such matters. If Seller shall be unable or unwilling to remove any title defects to which Purchaser has so objected, Purchaser shall elect either (i) to terminate this Agreement (in whole but not in part) and shall receive a full refund of the Deposit plus any accrued interest, or (ii) to proceed to the Closing notwithstanding such title defect without any abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price on account thereof. Those title or survey matters to which Purchaser does not object to hereunder, or to which Purchaser objects and Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure and Purchaser nonetheless elects to proceed to Closing, shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Permitted Exceptions.” Purchaser shall make any such election by written notice to Seller given on or prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period; provided, however, if Seller commences to cure a title defect and then elects not to complete such cure, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller within three (3) business days after Seller notifies Purchaser thereof. The failure of Purchaser to give such notice shall be deemed an election by Purchaser to proceed to Closing. If Purchaser terminates this Agreement in accordance with this Section 2(c), the Title Company shall return the Deposit, together with accrued interest, to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except those obligations that specifically survive the termination hereof.

(e) Seller hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Operator to cooperate with Purchaser in connection with its investigation of the Property pursuant to Section 2(d) above; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be deemed to require Seller to expend any money, incur any expense or institute any judicial or other proceeding in connection therewith. Additionally, Purchaser may contact Operator and its representatives in connection with its due diligence review of the Property; provided, however, Purchaser may only interview or otherwise communicate (in person, by phone or otherwise) with Operator and/or its employees or representatives with the participation of a representative of Seller, unless Seller specifically consents to the contrary in writing. Seller hereby agrees to be reasonably available for such purpose during regular business hours on business days, but only upon reasonable advance notice from Purchaser. Purchaser agrees that in connection with its investigation of the Property or contact with Operator or its employees or representatives, Purchaser shall not unreasonably disrupt or interfere with the operations at the Facility or Seller’s business relationship with Operator. Upon Seller’s reasonable determination that Purchaser has violated the preceding sentence, Seller shall have the right, exercisable in its sole and absolute discretion, to limit, restrict or prohibit any further communication between Purchaser and Operator.

(f) If Purchaser exercises its rights under Section 2(d) above, it shall keep the Property free and clear of any liens or claims resulting therefrom, and Purchaser shall indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Seller), protect and hold harmless Seller and Operator from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs) that Seller may sustain or incur by reason of or in connection with any tests made by Purchaser or Purchaser’s agent or contractors relating to or in connection with the Property or entries by Purchaser or its agents or contractors onto the Property. Purchaser shall restore any portion of the Property damaged by such exercise to substantially the same condition immediately before such exercise. The rights and obligations of the parties under this subsection shall survive Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement. Purchaser shall use care and consideration in connection with all of its inspections.

 

(g) If this Agreement terminates for any reason, Purchaser shall (i) deliver to Seller a copy of any tests, audits, surveys, reports, studies and the results of any and all investigations and inspections performed for Purchaser by third parties, all without representation or warranty by the Purchaser as to content, which are requested in writing by Seller within ten (10) days of such request (excluding any proprietary materials and materials subject to the attorney-client and/or work product privilege); and (ii) return to Seller or certify the destruction of any and all Due Diligence Materials given to Purchaser by or on behalf of Seller within ten (10) days of the termination of this Agreement. The foregoing covenants of Purchaser shall survive any such termination of this Agreement.

 

(h) From and after the Effective Date, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to obtain a loan commitment letter from a lender reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser setting forth such lender’s terms for the financing of Purchaser’s acquisition of the Facility (the “Loan Commitment”).

As of the Effective Date, the Property is operated by Operator which holds the license to operate the Facility under the Sublease Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that at or prior to Closing, Purchaser will terminate the Lease and Sublease and enter into a new direct lease with Operator to operate the Facility under the existing license held by Operator with an effective date as of the Closing Date.

Seller covenants and agrees not to cause or permit any other defects in or encumbrances or limitations upon Seller’s title to the Real Property to arise from and after the end of the Due Diligence Period without the prior consent of Purchaser; provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply to statutory liens for real estate taxes, assessments or similar matters arising in the ordinary course and that are not then yet due and payable.
