Seller may elect, by written notice to Buyer, to remove or cure any such Title Objection at or prior to Closing (a “Cure Item”). If Seller does not agree in writing to remove or cure any Title Objection within five (5) days after Buyer’s delivery of such Title Objection, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to remove or cure such Title Objection, and any time thereafter Buyer may elect to (i) terminate this Agreement (provided that, the title condition is a material adverse condition of the Property) by delivering written notice thereof to Seller, in which event Holder shall promptly refund the Earnest Money to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further obligations or liability under this Agreement except as expressly provided in this Agreement or (ii) waive such Title Objection and proceed to Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision herein to the contrary, Seller shall be required to satisfy or cure any Mandatory Cure Items at or prior to Closing, regardless of whether Buyer objects to the same, and any such Mandatory Cure Items shall be deemed Cure Items. In the event that the title condition is not a material adverse condition, then Buyer shall proceed to Closing and the title objection will not be a grounds for termination of this Agreement.

2.Buyer shall have the right to update the title commitment and survey for the Property after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period and prior to Closing. If any such title commitment update or survey update reveals any additional title or survey matters affecting the Property which were not previously disclosed in Buyer’s title commitment or survey, then Buyer may notify Seller of any objections to any such additional title or survey matters (“Additional Title Objections”) notwithstanding the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. Seller may elect, by written notice to Buyer, to remove or cure any such Additional Title Objection at or prior to Closing (an “Additional Cure Item”). If Seller does not agree in writing to remove or cure any Additional Title Objection within five (5) days after Buyer’s delivery of such Additional Title Objection, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to remove or cure such Additional Title Objection, and any time thereafter Buyer may elect to (i) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice thereof to Seller, in which event Holder shall promptly refund the Earnest Money to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further obligations or liability under this Agreement except as expressly provided in this Agreement or (ii) waive such Additional Title Objection and proceed to Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be entitled to title or survey objections after the Due Diligence Period if Buyer has failed to timely obtain the same as provided in this Section 11.

 

3.Provided that Seller has, in writing agreed to satisfy (except for Mandatory Cure Items which are required to be cured by Seller at Closing), Seller shall have until the Closing to cure or satisfy all Cure Items and Additional Cure Items, as applicable. If Seller fails to cure any Cure Item or Additional Cure Item, as applicable, at or prior to Closing (and fails to provide Buyer with evidence of Seller’s cure satisfactory to the Title Company), then Buyer may elect in its sole discretion by delivering written notice to Seller: (1) to exercise Buyer’s remedies under Section 17.B with respect to such failure by Seller, which shall be deemed a default by Seller under this Agreement; (2) to waive such failure and proceed to Closing; or (3) to extend the Closing Date up to thirty (30) days as determined by Buyer to allow Seller further time to cure such Cure Item or Additional Cure Item, as applicable.

 

12.Casualty Prior to Closing. If a material portion of the Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Closing, Seller shall give Buyer prompt notice thereof, which notice shall include Seller’s reasonable estimate of: (1) the cost to restore and repair the damage; (2) the amount of insurance proceeds, if any, available for the same; and (3) whether the damage can be repaired prior to Closing. Within ten (10) days after receiving any such notice from Seller, Buyer may terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller of such termination. In such event, Holder shall promptly refund the Earnest Money to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further obligations or liability under this Agreement except as expressly provided in this Agreement. If Buyer does not terminate this Agreement within such ten (10) day period, Seller shall promptly make any agreed-upon repairs and replacements in a good and workmanlike manner prior to Closing, and Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted Property with the damage (subject to any such agreed-upon repairs by Seller) and shall receive at Closing: (1) a credit against the Purchase Price for any insurance proceeds which have been paid to Seller but have not been spent on any agreed-upon repairs; (2) an assignment of Seller’s claim for all unpaid insurance proceeds; and (3) a credit against the Purchase Price for any unpaid deductible that may be required in connection with any such unpaid insurance proceeds. For purposes of this Section 12, “material portion” shall mean (i) in the case of damage or destruction by fire or casualty, a portion of the Property having a replacement cost equal to or in excess of ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price; or (ii) in the case of a taking, a portion of the Property for which the condemnation award is equal to or in excess of ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price.

B.Method of Delivery of Notice. Subject to limitations and conditions set forth herein, notices may only be delivered: (1) in person; (2) by an overnight delivery service; (3) by e-mail; or (4) by registered or certified U.S. mail, prepaid, return receipt requested.

 

C.When Notice Is Received. Except as may be provided herein, a notice shall not be deemed to be given, delivered, or received until it is received by the party to whom the notice was intended or that person’s authorized agent. Notwithstanding the above, (i) any notice deposited with a national overnight delivery service (e.g., FedEx or UPS) shall be deemed received one (1) business day after such notice is deposited with such overnight delivery service and (ii) if the sender of a notice by e-mail receives an automatic reply indicating that the e-mail has been opened, the e-mail notice shall be deemed received at that time.

 

D.Address or E-Mail for Receiving Notices: Notices to a party to this Agreement shall only be effective if sent to the e-mail address and/or physical address of such party listed in Section 1 of this Agreement or subsequently provided by such party to the other party hereto in accordance with the notice provisions herein.

 

17.Default.

 

A.Seller’s Pre-Closing Remedy for Buyer Default. If Buyer defaults in its obligation to close and pay the Purchase Price in accordance with this Agreement, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to terminate this Agreement and retain the Earnest Money as liquidated damages, in which event the parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement (except as expressly provided herein with respect to any obligations which are intended to survive the termination of this Agreement). Buyer and Seller agree that, due to the nature of this transaction, it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to fix the actual damages Seller would sustain should Buyer default in its obligation to purchase the Property. Buyer and Seller agree that liquidated damages are appropriate for this transaction and agree that the Earnest Money represents a reasonable estimate of the damages Seller would sustain by virtue of Buyer’s failure to perform its obligation to purchase the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this damage limitation shall not affect Buyer’s indemnity obligations provided in this Agreement.

 

B.Buyer’s Pre-Closing Remedies for Seller Default. If Seller materially breaches any representation or warranty under this Agreement or fails to materially perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy prior to Closing, either (a) to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money Deposit, and Seller shall reimburse Buyer an amount equal to the out-of-pocket costs incurred by Buyer in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, which reimbursement obligation of Seller shall survive the termination of this Agreement (provided that, Seller’s obligation to reimburse shall be limited to $25,000.00), or (b) to enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement; provided that Buyer files the lawsuit to enforce within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date.

 

C.Post-Closing Remedies for Default. If, after the Closing, Seller or Buyer fails to materially perform any of its obligations which expressly survive the Closing, or if either party discovers a material breach of a representation or warranty during the Survival Period, then Seller or Buyer may exercise any remedies available to it at law or in equity, including specific performance or an action for damages; provided that, no claim shall arise for damages of less than $1,000.00 or more than $100,000.00. In no event shall Seller be liable for consequential, incidental, special or punitive damages, whether in contract, tort or under any other legal or equitable principle.

 

D.Notice and Cure. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no breach, failure or default by Buyer or Seller (as applicable, the “Defaulting Party”) shall result in the exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to such breach, failure or default, unless and until the Defaulting Party shall be notified in writing by a document from the other party entitled “Notice of Default” (including reasonable specifics about the breach, failure or default), and the Defaulting Party shall have failed to cure the specified breach, failure or default within ten (10) days after receipt of such written notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no cure period for failure to close on the Closing Date.

 

18.Other Provisions.

 

A.Entire Agreement and Modification: This Agreement constitutes the sole and entire agreement between the parties hereto, supersedes all their prior written and verbal agreements and shall be binding upon the parties and their successors, heirs, and permitted assigns. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except upon the written agreement of Buyer and Seller.

B.Governing Law and Interpretation: This Agreement may be signed in multiple counterparts each of which shall be deemed to be an original. No provision herein, by virtue of the party who drafted it, shall be interpreted less favorably against one party than another. All references to time shall mean Eastern Time. The governing law shall be those of the state in which the Property is located. The parties acknowledge and agree that the appropriate venue is the County and State in which the Property is located.

 

C.Electronic Signatures: Each party (i) has agreed to permit the use, from time to time, of telecopied or electronic signatures in order to expedite the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) intends to be bound by its telecopied or electronic signature, (iii) is aware that the other will rely on the telecopied or electronic signature, and (iv) acknowledges such reliance and waives any defenses (other than fraud) to the enforcement of any document based on the fact that a signature was sent by telecopy. As used herein, the term “telecopied signature” shall include any signature sent via facsimile, docusign or via email in portable document format (“.pdf”).

 

D.Time of Essence: Time is of the essence with respect to this Agreement.

 

E.Determination of Time Periods. In calculating any period provided for in this Agreement, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the number of days shall refer to calendar days and not business days. If any day scheduled for performance of any obligation or the last day of any other period falls on a weekend or holiday observed by national banks or banks in the state where the Property is located, the day for performance shall be extended to the next business day.

 

F.Terminology: As the context may require in this Agreement: (1) the singular shall mean the plural and vice versa; and (2) all pronouns shall mean and include the person, entity, firm, or corporation to which they relate.

 

G.Duty to Cooperate: Seller and Buyer agree to do all things reasonably necessary and in good faith before and after Closing (including executing and delivering such additional documents as required by law or as reasonably requested by the other party) to fulfill the terms of this Agreement and carry out the intent and purpose of the parties as set forth in this Agreement.

 

H.Tax Deferred Exchange. Upon the request of either party, the parties agree to execute and deliver all documents and perform such acts as are reasonably necessary to enable the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to qualify as a like kind exchange of real property under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (an “Exchange”). The requesting party shall bear all additional expenses incurred by the non-exchanging party arising out of the Exchange which would not otherwise have been attendant to this transaction, and the non-exchanging party shall not be required to incur any additional cost or liability in connection with such Exchange. Closing shall not be delayed because of any such Exchange. If the requesting party is unsuccessful in its efforts to structure this transaction as an Exchange, such occurrence shall not be deemed or construed as the failure of a condition precedent to that party’s obligations under this Agreement and Closing shall proceed without the intended Exchange.

 

I.Attorneys’ Fees. In the event suit is brought to enforce or interpret all or any part of this Agreement, or if suit is brought for any other relief permitted hereunder, the prevailing party in such suit shall be entitled to recover reasonably attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with such suit to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

 

19.Title to Park-Owned Homes. The parties acknowledge and agree that Seller does not have a certificate of title for five (5) Park-Owned Homes (collectively, the “Missing Title Park Homes”). Seller will use its best efforts to obtain the certificates of title for the Missing Title Park Homes prior to Closing. At Closing, Seller will convey ownership to Buyer of all Park-Owned Homes by delivery of the certificates of title and a bill of sale. In the event that Seller is unable to obtain all of the certificate of titles for the Missing Title Park Homes by the Closing Date, then the parties agree that Seller will holdback $5,000 per Missing Title Park Home from its sale proceeds and deposit the same with The Denny Law Firm, PLLC (as escrow agent) in accordance with an agreed upon holdback agreement whereby Seller shall have six (6) months from the Closing Date to obtain the certificates of title for the Missing Title Park Homes. In the event that at the end of the 6-month period, Seller still has not obtained a certificate of title for a Missing Title Park Home, then the escrow agent shall release to Buyer $5,000 per outstanding Missing Title Park Home (plus, any documentation necessary for Buyer to obtain the certificate of title; including, but not limited to, power of attorney) and the remainder shall be paid to Seller. The agreement shall also provide that as soon as a title is obtained for a Missing Title Park Home that Seller shall notify escrow agent and Buyer and the escrow agent shall release $5,000 per certificate of title obtained..
