In this connection, Buyer acknowledges that factual matters now unknown to it may have given or may hereafter give rise to causes of action, claims, demands, controversies, damages, costs, losses or expenses which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and Buyer further acknowledges that the release contained in this Section has been negotiated and agreed upon in light of the foregoing. Buyer expressly waives any provision of statutory or decisional law to the effect that a general release does not extend to claims which the releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in such party's favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by such party, must have materially affected such party's settlement with the released parties. ARTICLE 8 ADDITIONAL COVENANTS 8.1 Possession. Possession of the Property shall be delivered to Buyer upon the Closing. 14 8.2 Condemnation. If, prior to Closing, more than 15% of the total square footage of the Property is taken by or under threat of condemnation or eminent domain (including by deed in lieu of condemnation) or Buyer receives notice from any governmental agency or other person with the power of eminent domain threatening the taking of more than 15% of the total square footage of the Property (any such event being referred to as a "CONDEMNATION EVENT"), Buyer may, at its election, cancel this Agreement by giving written notice of cancellation to Seller and Escrow Agent within five days of occurrence of the Condemnation Event. If Buyer so elects to cancel this Agreement, then all earnest money deposits will be returned to Buyer and the Agreement shall be cancelled. If, prior to Closing, there is a Condemnation Event with respect to 15% or less of the total square footage of the Property or if Buyer elects to close the escrow notwithstanding the taking of more than 15% of the total square footage of the Property, Buyer shall receive all awards or payments made to which Seller is entitled for such taking, and Buyer shall proceed to close the escrow and pay the total Purchase Price. 8.3 Risk of Loss. Except as provided in this Section and except as otherwise provided in SECTION 4.3, the risk of loss or damage to the Property and all liability to third persons until the Closing shall be borne by Seller. In case of loss or damage to the Property prior to the Closing, Seller shall have the option to fully restore the Property, and if Seller elects to restore, the Closing shall be extended for a reasonable period of time following the loss or damage in order to permit Seller to fully restore the Property. If, however, Seller does not restore the Property prior to the Closing, as extended, then Buyer, at Buyer's option and as Buyer's sole and exclusive remedy, may either: (a) Cancel this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, in which case Buyer will be entitled to a return of all earnest money deposits; or (b) Proceed with the Closing, and, at Buyer's option, either receive a mutually agreed abatement of the Purchase Price or be entitled to Seller's rights to insurance. If the parties cannot agree to an acceptable abatement to the Purchase Price, then Buyer will pay the full Purchase Price for the Property, less the deductible payable with respect to the loss and, at the Closing, all of the insurance proceeds payable to Seller with respect to the loss and all rights with respect to the loss under the insurance policy covering the loss will be assigned by Seller to Buyer and any moneys received by Seller at any time in connection with the loss will be paid to Buyer. 8.4 Buyer's Indemnity. Buyer shall defend, indemnify, save and hold Seller and its Related Parties harmless for, from and against any and all Claims: (a) Directly or indirectly relating in any way to the Property and accruing from and after the Closing; (b) Accruing at any time before or after the Closing as the result of the acts or omissions of Buyer, any of Buyer's Related Parties, or any of Buyer's consultants, representatives, or contractors; and (c) Subject to any limitations imposed by SECTION 10.1, arising as a result of the breach by Buyer of any of Buyer's obligation under this Agreement or under any 15 other agreement or document delivered by Buyer in accordance with this Agreement, or as a result of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement or in any other agreement or document delivered by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; except, in the case of Claims under both SECTIONS 8.4(a) and 8.4(b), to the extent arising from any actions, activities, or omissions of Seller, its Related Parties, or any of Seller's consultants, representatives, or contractors. 8.5 Scope. The indemnity obligations of Buyer under SECTION 8.4 are in addition to and not in lieu of any other indemnification obligations of such party set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. ARTICLE 9 BROKERAGE 9.1 Brokerage. Seller warrants that Seller has not dealt with any broker in connection with this transaction other than Grubb & Ellis/BRE Commercial, LLC ("BROKER"). Buyer warrants that Buyer has not dealt with any broker in connection with this transaction other than Broker. If any other person shall assert a claim to a finder's fee, brokerage commission or other compensation on account of alleged employment as a finder or broker or performance of services as a finder or broker in connection with this transaction, the party under whom the finder or broker is claiming shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party and such party's Related Parties for, from and against any and all Claims in connection with such claim or any action or proceeding brought on such claim. ARTICLE 10 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 10.1 Defaults by Buyer. (a) Buyer's Default. The occurrence of any of the following will constitute a default by Buyer under this Agreement: (i) If, by the time set for the Closing, Buyer has failed to pay the balance of the Purchase Price into escrow, to deposit into escrow the documents and other items to be deposited by Buyer in escrow by the time set for Closing, or to perform any other obligation of Buyer to be performed by the time set for Closing (all such obligations being referred to collectively as the "BUYER CLOSING OBLIGATIONS"); (ii) If Buyer makes an unauthorized assignment of this Agreement; or (iii) If Buyer fails to observe or perform any of the other covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement to be observed or performed by Buyer, but such failure, if of a type that can be cured or corrected by Buyer, will not be a 16 default unless such failure continues for fifteen (15) days after written notice of breach is given by Seller to Buyer except that if such failure is of such a character as to require more than fifteen (15) days to correct, Buyer will not be in default if Buyer commences actions to correct such failure within the fifteen (15) day period and thereafter, using reasonable diligence, cures such failure. In no event, however, will the cure period be extended beyond the time set for Closing. (b) Seller's Remedies. (i) If Buyer is in default with respect to the Buyer Closing Obligations, Seller's sole and exclusive remedy with respect to such default shall be to cancel this Agreement and the escrow, such cancellation to be effective immediately upon Seller giving written notice of cancellation to Buyer and Escrow Agent. Upon such cancellation, Seller shall be entitled to receive and retain all earnest money deposits as liquidated damages for such failure and not as a penalty, the parties agreeing and stipulating that the exact amount of damages would be extremely difficult to ascertain and that the earnest money deposits constitute a reasonable and fair approximation of such damages. (ii) If Buyer is in default with respect any of its obligations under this Agreement, other than the Buyer Closing Obligations, including any indemnity obligation, Seller shall have all rights and remedies at law or in equity in connection with such default. (iii) Seller irrevocably waives any right to damages or any other remedies or form of relief, except as specifically set forth in this SECTION 10.1(b). 10.2 Default by Seller. (a) Seller's Default. The occurrence of any of the following will constitute a default by Seller under this Agreement: (i) If, by the time set for the Closing, Seller has failed to deposit into escrow the documents and other items to be deposited by Seller in escrow by the time set for Closing, or to perform any other obligation of Seller to be performed by the time set for Closing (all such obligations being referred to collectively as the "SELLER CLOSING OBLIGATIONS"); or (ii) If Seller fails to observe or perform any of the other covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement to be observed or performed by Seller, but such failure, if of a type that can be cured or corrected by Seller, will not be a default unless such failure continues for fifteen (15) days after written notice of breach is given by Buyer to Seller except that if such failure is of such a character as to require more than fifteen (15) days to correct, Seller will not be in default if Seller commences actions to correct such failure within the fifteen (15) day period and thereafter, using reasonable diligence, cures such failure. In such event, the time for Closing will automatically be extended to permit such cure within the time period above provided. 17 (b) Buyer's Remedies. (i) If Seller is in default with respect to the Seller Closing Obligations, Buyer may, by written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent, given within ten (10) days following the date that the default by Seller occurs, elect to exercise either the Termination Right or the Specific Enforcement Right as described below, but not both, unless prior to such notice being given, Seller otherwise cures the default, in which case Buyer and Seller shall proceed to close the transaction within five (5) days following such cure. (A) Buyer may terminate this Agreement (the "TERMINATION RIGHT"), effective as of the date Buyer gives the notice to Seller and Escrow Agent electing to exercise the Termination Right. If Buyer exercises the Termination Right, all earnest money deposits will be returned to Buyer. (B) Buyer may elect to pursue specific performance of this Agreement (the "SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE RIGHT"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the amount payable by Buyer at Closing shall be reduced by the amount of damages incurred by Buyer as a result of Seller's default, including any and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Buyer and paid to third parties, including outside counsel, in enforcing its rights and remedies under this Agreement. If Buyer fails to elect the Specific Performance Remedy within the ten (10) day period described above, Buyer shall have no further right to demand specific performance and shall be conclusively presumed to have exercised the Termination Right. (ii) If Seller is in default with respect any of its obligations under this Agreement, other than the Seller Closing Obligations, including any indemnity obligation, Buyer shall have all rights and remedies at law or in equity in connection with such default. (iii) Buyer irrevocably waives any right to damages or any other remedies or form of relief, except as specifically set forth in this SECTION 10.2(b). ARTICLE 11 GENERAL PROVISIONS 11.1 Certain Definitions. As used in this Agreement, certain capitalized terms are defined as follows: (a) "CLAIMS" means any and all obligations, debts, covenants, conditions, representations, costs, and liabilities and any and all demands, causes of action, and claims, of every type, kind, nature or character, direct or indirect, known or unknown, 18 absolute or contingent, determined or speculative, at law, in equity or otherwise, including attorneys' fees and litigation and court costs. (b) "RELATED PARTIES" means, with respect to any person or entity, the officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, employees, agents, attorneys, elected officials, managers, successors, personal representatives, heirs, executors, or assigns of any such person or entity. 11.2 Assignment. (a) General Prohibition. Buyer may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be given or withheld in Seller's sole discretion. Any such assignment or transfer without such consent shall be absolutely null and void and shall constitute a default by Buyer under this Agreement. (b) Assignment by Operation of Law; Bankruptcy. In no event will this Agreement or any interest in this Agreement or the Property be assigned or assignable by operation of law or by voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceedings without the prior written consent of Seller. In no event will this Agreement or any rights or privileges of Buyer under this Agreement be deemed an asset of Buyer under any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization proceedings. 11.3 Binding Effect. Except as limited by the provisions of SECTION 11.2, the provisions of this Agreement are binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns. 11.4 Attorneys' Fees. If either party to this Agreement initiates or defends any legal action or proceeding with the other party in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in any such legal action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to recover from the losing party in any such legal action or proceeding its reasonable costs and expenses of suit, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expert witness fees. If either party to this Agreement initiates or defends any legal action or proceeding with a third party because of the violation of any term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Agreement by the other party to this Agreement, then the party so litigating shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and expenses of suit, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expert witness fees, incurred in connection with such litigation from the other party to this Agreement. All such costs and attorney's fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of any such legal action or proceeding and shall be enforceable whether or not such legal action or proceeding is prosecuted to judgment. Attorneys' fees under this Section include attorneys' fees on any appeal and in any bankruptcy or similar or related proceeding in federal or state courts. Any dispute as to the amounts payable pursuant to this Section shall be resolved by the court and not by a jury. 11.5 Waivers. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver be a continuing waiver. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no waiver shall be binding unless 19 executed in writing by the party making the waiver. Either party may waive any provision of this Agreement intended for its benefit; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, such waiver shall in no way excuse the other party from the performance of any of its other obligations under this Agreement. 11.6 Notices. All notices shall be in writing and shall be made by hand delivery, facsimile, express delivery service, freight prepaid, or by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested. Notices will be delivered or addressed to Seller and Buyer at the addresses or facsimile numbers set forth on the first page of this Agreement or at such other address or number as a party may designate to the other party in writing.
