8




2.3                          Physical Inspections

(i)             environmental audits, assessments or inspections of the Lands; and

(ii)          tests relating to soil, groundwater and underground conditions of the Lands.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser agrees not to conduct any invasive tests relating to soil, groundwater and underground conditions of the Lands.

(b)           The Vendor shall execute such authorizations as are submitted by the Purchaser’s Solicitors to the Vendor’s Solicitors in order to enable the Purchaser’s Solicitors to obtain information from Governmental Authorities concerning the Lands, which authorizations are to be executed and delivered within two (2) Business Days after submission to the Vendor’s Solicitors, and which authorizations may request information but shall not request or suggest inspections by any Authority.

(c)           Unless the Vendor otherwise agrees in writing, the Purchaser and its representatives shall not enter onto the Lands and perform such investigations, inspections, tests or audits unless accompanied by a representative of the Vendor, provided that the Vendor shall make a representative available on a reasonable basis upon receiving such notice.  For greater certainty, nothing herein shall restrict the Purchaser from enjoying the same access to the Lands as would any other member of the public enjoying lawful access to the Lands.  The Purchaser shall pay all costs of any repairs required to be made to the Lands as a result of the aforesaid investigations, inspections, tests and audits, and shall fully indemnify the Vendor from all costs of repairing any damage caused by such inspections, tests or audits and all Claims relating to any such inspections, tests and audits and from all Claims incurred by the Vendor as a result thereof including, without limitation, any builders’ liens registered against the Lands as a result thereof.  This indemnity shall survive termination of this Agreement regardless of the cause of such termination. If the Purchaser does not perform such repairs, the Vendor shall have the right to perform, or cause to be performed, such work and to obtain reimbursement for the reasonable, out-of-pocket costs of such work from the Purchaser, provided that the Vendor shall, if possible in the circumstances, provide the Purchaser with advance written notice of the work to be done, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the rights of the Vendor hereunder or otherwise render the Vendor liable to the Purchaser.

(d)           The provisions of this Section 2.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

9

 




2.4                          Purchaser’s Investigations

(a)           On or before 5:00 p.m. on the Due Diligence Date the Purchaser may conduct (subject to compliance with other relevant provisions of this Agreement) all investigations, inspections, reviews, tests and audits relating to the Lands (including, without limitation, title to the Subject Assets and compliance with Applicable Laws) and the Transaction (collectively referred to herein as the “Due Diligence”) which the Purchaser deems necessary or desirable in its discretion.

(b)           The obligation of the Purchaser to complete the Transaction pursuant to this Agreement is subject to the condition that the Purchaser is satisfied with the Due Diligence in its sole and absolute discretion on or before 5:00 p.m. on the Due Diligence Date.  The Purchaser shall be deemed to be satisfied with the results of its Due Diligence unless it delivers to the Vendor on or before 5:00 p.m. on the Due Diligence Date a written notice (the “Non-Waiver Notice”) stating that it does not waive the condition contained in this Subsection 2.4(b).  If the Purchaser delivers the Non-Waiver Notice to the Vendor prior to 5:00 p.m. on the Due Diligence Date, then this Agreement shall automatically terminate at such time and, upon such termination, the Purchaser and the Vendor shall be released from all obligations under this Agreement (except for those obligations which are expressly stated to survive the termination of this Agreement).

ARTICLE 3

PURCHASE PRICE

3.1                          Method of Payment of Purchase Price

On Closing, the Purchase Price shall be satisfied by payment to the Vendor, or as the Vendor directs in writing, by wire transfer of an amount (the “Balance”) equal to the Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.2, less the Holdback Amount.

3.2                                                                               Adjustments

(a)           The Purchase Price shall be adjusted as set out in this Section (such adjustments being referred to herein as the “Adjustments”).  Adjustments shall be made as of the Adjustment Date.  Each of the Vendor and the Purchaser shall be responsible for their respective expenses as set forth in this Agreement.

(b)           The Vendor (or its or the Purchaser’s agent) shall prepare and deliver to the Purchaser at least one (1) Business Day prior to Closing a statement (the “Statement of Adjustments”) of the Adjustments to be made on Closing with all Adjustments made as of the Closing Date. The Statement of Adjustments shall have annexed to it complete details of the calculations used by the Vendor to arrive at all debits and credits on the Statement of Adjustments.  The Vendor shall give to the Purchaser access to the Vendor’s working papers and back up materials in order to confirm the Statement of Adjustments.

If the final cost or amount of any item which is to be adjusted on Closing cannot be determined at Closing, then an initial Adjustment for such item shall be made at Closing, such amount to be estimated by the Vendor and the Purchaser, each acting reasonably, on the basis of the best evidence available at the Closing as to what the final cost or amount of such item will

10

 




be.  In each case when such cost or amount is determined the Vendor or the Purchaser, as the case may be, shall within thirty (30) days thereafter provide a complete statement of such final determination to the other and within thirty (30) days thereafter (or if there is a dispute over such amount, within thirty (30) days after the matter is determined by the accountants pursuant to Subsection 3.2(d)) the necessary adjusting payment shall be made.

(c)           The Purchaser shall provide the Vendor and its auditors, during normal business hours at any time and from time to time after Closing upon reasonable prior notice to the Purchaser, access to the books, files and records of the Purchaser, for the purpose of calculating or verifying the amount of any Adjustments.  In the absence of agreement by the parties hereto, the final cost or amount of an item shall be determined by a firm of chartered accountants appointed jointly by the Vendor and the Purchaser within ten (10) Business Days after the issue is referred by one of the parties to the accountants for such determination.  The cost of such accountants’ determination shall be shared equally between the parties hereto.

(d)           No Adjustments (including readjustments of amounts initially adjusted for at Closing) may be claimed by either party after the first anniversary of the Closing (the “Final Adjustment Date”).  Based solely upon the Adjustments (including readjustments) claimed by either party before the Final Adjustment Date, the Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Vendor on or before the twentieth (20th) day of the calendar month following the month in which the Final Adjustment Date occurs (or, if such day is not a Business Day on the next following Business Day) a statement of Readjustments which shall set out all final Adjustments (including readjustments) that have not previously been determined and paid and also setting out the amount of the adjusting payment to be made by the Vendor or the Purchaser, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after such statement of Readjustments is delivered to the Vendor (or if there is a dispute over such statement, within thirty (30) days after all disputes with respect to such statement are determined by the accountants pursuant to Subsection 3.2(c)) the necessary adjusting payment shall be made by the Vendor or the Purchaser, as the case may be.

3.3                                                                               Holdback

(a)           On Closing, Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) of the Purchase Price (the “Holdback Amount”) shall be retained by the Purchaser and applied (subject to this Section 3.3) by the Purchaser towards: (i) the cost of the environmental audit described in paragraph (b) below; and (ii) any costs that the Purchaser, acting in its sole discretion, incurs in connection with bringing the Lands into compliance with Environmental Laws and/or removing Hazardous Substances from the Lands (collectively, the “Environmental Remediation”) following the Closing Date.

(b)           As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing, the Purchaser shall engage an environmental consultant to conduct an environmental audit to determine the required Environmental Remediation, if any.  In the event such environmental audit (a written copy of which shall be provided to the Vendor) concludes that no Environmental Remediation is required, the Purchaser shall pay to the Vendor, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, the remaining Holdback Amount.  In any event, the Purchaser shall pay to the Vendor, within six (6) months of the Closing Date, the remaining Holdback Amount, provided, however, that if the Purchaser has, within that time frame, commenced Environmental Remediation as a result of, or

11

 




in connection with, the environmental audit, the Holdback Amount shall remain the property of the Purchaser (and the Vendor shall have no rights in respect thereof or entitlement thereto), with the costs of the required Environmental Remediation being deducted from such amount, and the remaining Holdback Amount (if any) shall be paid to the Vendor upon completion of the required Environmental Remediation.  For greater certainty, in the event that the amount required to complete the Environmental Remediation is greater than or equal to the remaining Holdback Amount, upon completion of such Environmental Remediation, no amount shall be returned to the Vendor.  The Purchaser hereby covenants and agrees that in the event that the environmental audit indicates that Environmental Remediation is or may be required, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonably efforts to complete such Environmental Remediation as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.

(c)           The Vendor and the Purchaser hereby agree that, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing, they will explore obtaining (at the Vendor’s sole cost and expense) environmental risk insurance in respect of the Lands, which if obtained on terms and conditions acceptable to the Purchaser, acting reasonably, may be used to immediately reduce the Holdback Amount.

(j)                                     on Closing there shall not exist:

(i)             any information or documentation relating to the Lands which was not disclosed or made available by the Vendor, as applicable, to the Purchaser as required by Section 2.2; or

14

 




4.4                                                                               Reasonable Efforts to Satisfy Conditions

(b)           The representations, warranties and certifications contained in this Agreement or in any Closing Documents shall not merge on Closing but shall survive for a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”).  The representations and warranties in Subsections 7.1(t) — 7.1(w) shall survive the Closing for a period of two (2) years.  The party which has received a representation, warranty or certification, whether in this Agreement or in any Closing Document, shall give written notice to the other party of each breach of the representation, warranty or certification, together with details thereof, promptly after becoming aware of the breach and no later than the last day of the Survival Period.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or of any Closing Document, no Claim may be asserted or pursued against any party hereto, or any action, suit or other proceedings commenced or pursued, for or in respect of any breach of any representation, warranty or certification made by such party in this Agreement or in any Closing Document unless written notice of such Claim is received by such party describing in detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such Claim on or prior to the last day of the Survival Period, irrespective of whether the subject matter of such Claim shall have occurred before or after such date; and upon the expiry of the Survival Period all such representations, warranties and certifications shall cease to have any effect except to the extent a written notice of Claim has been previously given in respect thereof in accordance with this Subsection.

(c)           Each indemnity contained in any Closing Documents shall not merge on Closing, and there shall be no limitation upon the period for making a Claim in respect of any indemnity in any Closing Documents and such indemnities shall survive Closing for an unlimited period, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

(d)           The provisions of this Section 7.3 shall survive and not merge upon Closing.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, all of the representations, warranties and certifications (the “Representations”) which are made by the Vendor and set forth in this Agreement or in any of the documents or instruments required to be delivered by the Vendor under this Agreement shall be subject to the following conditions and limitation: in the event that prior to the Closing, the Purchaser gains current actual knowledge of a fact or circumstance which, by its nature and plainly on its face, indicates that a Representation is, was or has become untrue or inaccurate, then the Purchaser shall not have the right to bring any lawsuit or other legal action against the Vendor, nor pursue any other remedies against the Vendor, as a result of the breach of the Representation caused thereby, but the Purchaser’s sole right shall be to terminate this Agreement and not proceed with Closing, in which event there

23

 




shall be no liability on the part of the Vendor for breaches of Representations of which the Purchaser had current actual knowledge prior to Closing. For greater certainty and notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the mere delivery by the Vendor to the Purchaser, and possession by the Purchaser, of the documents and instruments contemplated in Section 2.2 shall not be sufficient to constitute actual knowledge on the part of the Purchaser that a Representation is, was or has become untrue or inaccurate.

7.4                                                                               Non-Waiver

The Vendor agrees that the Purchaser’s right to do searches, reviews, examinations, investigations, inspections, assessments, audits and analyses, and the exercise of such right, shall not affect, reduce or mitigate any of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Vendor contained in this Agreement or any of the damages and costs owing by the Vendor to the Purchaser as a result of any breach of such representations, warranties and covenants.

ARTICLE 8
INTERIM MATTERS

8.1                                                                               Interim Period

Upon acceptance of this Agreement and thereafter so long as this Agreement is in effect, (a) the Vendor shall not offer the Subject Assets or any part of the Subject Assets or any interest therein for sale to any Person other than the Purchaser nor will it solicit, directly or indirectly, or deal with any offers to purchase the Subject Assets or any part of the Subject Assets or any interest therein.

8.2                                                                               Approvals of the Purchaser

While this Agreement is in effect, the Vendor agrees that it shall not amend, cancel or accept a surrender or forfeiture of any Leases or Contracts without the prior written approval of the Purchaser, which may arbitrarily and unreasonably be withheld, and it shall not enter into any Lease or Contract without the prior written approval of the Purchaser, which may arbitrarily and unreasonably be withheld.

The Vendor shall provide the Purchaser with a complete copy of any Approved Lease or Approved Contract and of any document which creates, amends, cancels, surrenders or forfeits any Lease or Contract within three (3) Business Days after it is entered into by the parties thereto.

8.3                                                                               Notice of Default

The Vendor shall forthwith provide to the Purchaser (i) a copy of any notices that it receives in respect of the Existing Leases, Approved Leases (if any), Existing Contracts and/or Approved Contracts (if any) alleging default on the part of the Vendor or requesting the Vendor to perform any obligation thereunder and any notice alleging default under the Leases, or any Contract that it sends to another Person, in either case after the date this Agreement is executed and delivered by the parties hereto; (ii) a copy of any work orders, state or federal environmental

24

 




orders or deficiency notices of any nature issued by any Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction relating to the Lands; and (iii) a copy of any notice from a Tenant received after the date of this Agreement by the Vendor which indicates the intention of a Tenant to vacate or assign, as the case may be, its interest in the Lands prior to the scheduled expiry date of its Existing Lease or requests an abatement or deferral of rent.

8.4                                                                               Approvals

(a)           Whenever in this Agreement it is stated that the approval or consent of a party is required, it is understood that, except where otherwise specifically so stated, such approval or consent shall be in writing, and shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Furthermore, with respect to such approvals or consents, unless specifically otherwise stated:

(i)             the party whose approval or consent is required shall, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of request for approval or consent, together with available background information relating to the required decision to enable an informed decision, advise the requesting party in writing either that it consents or approves, or that it withholds its consent or approval and in which case it shall set forth, in reasonable details, its reasons for such withholding; and

(ii)          in the event the notification mentioned in paragraph (i) above is not delivered within the applicable time limit, the party whose consent or approval is requested shall conclusively be deemed not to have given its consent or approval in writing.

8.5                                                                               Risk of Condemnation and Eminent Domain

The Vendor shall promptly notify the Purchaser in the event that it receives a notice of condemnation and/or exercise of eminent domain in respect of all or any material part of the Lands, as applicable, and such notice shall include a copy of the notice of condemnation and/or exercise of eminent domain and copies of all correspondence relating thereto in the possession of the Vendor.  If notice of condemnation and/or exercise of eminent domain is given prior to Closing, the Purchaser may elect by notice in writing given to the Vendor within ten (10) Business Days after receipt from the Vendor of notice of the proposed condemnation and/or exercise eminent domain either:

(a)                                  to complete the Transaction, in which case the Purchaser shall continue to be bound by this Agreement except that any compensation awarded for expropriation and all right and claim of the Vendor to any such proceeds and compensation not paid by the Closing Date shall be assigned to the Purchaser; or

(b)                                 to terminate this Agreement, in which event none of the parties shall have any further liability to the other arising out of this Agreement.

If the notice of the proposed condemnation and/or exercise of eminent domain is received by the Vendor at such time that there would be insufficient time for the Purchaser to

25

 




make its election hereunder, the Closing Date shall be postponed to a date which is five (5) Business Days after the Purchaser’s election.

8.6                                                                               General Covenants of the Vendor

The Vendor covenants and agrees with the Purchaser that from and after the date hereof:

(a)                                  the Vendor shall diligently make all payments to be made and otherwise observe and perform or cause to be observed or performed all covenants and obligations to be observed or performed by the Vendor under the Contracts and the Leases;

(b)                                 the Vendor shall not (i) create or permit to exist any encumbrance against or affecting the Lands or any part thereof or interest therein or (ii) amend any of the Permitted Encumbrances, except in each case with the prior written approval of the Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld by the Purchaser in respect of Permitted Encumbrances; and

(c)                                  the Vendor shall not consent to or initiate any amalgamation, winding-up, dissolution, liquidation, reorganization, reconstruction, arrangement, consolidation, merger or other corporate procedure whatsoever without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent may be withheld by the Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion.

ARTICLE 9
ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNIFICATION

9.1                                                                               Environmental Indemnification by the Vendor

For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date and no longer (the “Indemnity Period”) the Vendor agrees to indemnify and save harmless each of the Purchaser, its directors, officers, employees and agents and any successor to the Purchaser’s interest in the Lands (including, without limitation, persons to whom this indemnity is assigned) and all directors, officers, employees and agents of such successors, from and against any and all Claims suffered or incurred by any such person as a result of or arising directly or indirectly out of or in connection with any one or more of the following:

(a)                                  any event occurring or any condition existing on or prior to the Closing Date relating to the Lands which now or hereafter constitutes a violation of, or gives rise to any liability under, Environmental Laws; and

(b)                                 any generation, manufacture, processing, distribution, use, presence, treatment, storage, disposal, release, transport or handling of any Hazardous Substance in, on, under or from the Lands, whether by the Vendor or any tenant or any other person prior to the Time of Closing, and whether or not known at the Time of Closing.

26

 




For greater certainty, the Vendor’s obligation to indemnify and save harmless as provided above exists regardless of whether there has been a breach of any of the provisions contained in Section 7.1 hereof and regardless of the current actual knowledge of the Purchaser as at the Closing Date and shall not be limited in any way by Section 7.3 hereof.  Furthermore, the Vendor’s obligations to indemnify and save harmless the Purchaser as provided for in this Section 9.1, and the amount of any such indemnification, shall in no way be capped or otherwise limited by the provisions of Section 3.3 hereof.

9.2                                                                               Assignability of Environmental Indemnification

During the Indemnity Period, the Purchaser may, at any time and from time to time, assign all or any part of the benefit of the indemnity set out in Section 9.1 to any purchaser of, or lender to the Purchaser in respect of, the Lands, by delivering a notice in writing to the Vendor setting out the Purchaser’s intention to assign all or part of the benefit of the indemnity and the identity of the person or persons to whom the assignment is to be made.  Upon any such assignment, the Vendor shall be bound to indemnify the person or persons named in such notice to the extent of the assignment of the indemnity as if such person or persons were a party to this Agreement as the Purchaser.  No such assignments shall relieve the Vendor of the obligation to indemnify under Section 9.1 and such obligations shall continue unaffected by the assignment for the Indemnity Period. Any such assignee may make a further assignment during the Indemnity Period in accordance with the foregoing provisions, as if all references therein to the Purchaser were to such assignee.

(b)           The Vendor covenants and agrees with the Purchaser that in the event the Purchaser seeks to amend any zoning by-laws, site plans or development agreements or take any

27




other action affecting the Lands in order to facilitate the future development of the Lands, the Vendor shall, upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, fully and promptly co-operate with the Purchaser in connection with any such amendments. In furtherance thereof, the Vendor shall, upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, execute and deliver, make or cause to be made, all such further acts, deeds, assurances and things as may be reasonably required or necessary to effect such amendments.

(c)           The provisions of this Section 10.1 shall survive the Closing.
