If at any time after the Proration Date additional or supplemental taxes (which are not the obligation of the tenant under the Lease) are assessed against the Real Property by reason of any event occurring prior to or on the Proration Date, or there is any rebate of such taxes (with Seller being responsible for the supplemental or additional taxes attributable to the period prior to and including the Proration Date and Buyer being responsible for the supplemental or additional taxes attributable to the period after the Proration Date), Buyer and Seller shall promptly re- prorate such taxes, and any amounts due from one party to the other shall be paid in cash at that time.

13.


Proration Date and a final calculation no later than one (1) day prior to the Proration Date. The final calculation shall be executed by each party and may be relied upon by Escrow Holder in completing the closing adjustments and prorations. In the event incomplete information is available, or estimates have been utilized to calculate prorations as of the Proration Date, any prorations relating thereto shall be further adjusted and completed outside of Escrow within sixty (60) days after the Proration Date or as soon as possible after complete information becomes available to Buyer and Seller. Any adjustments to initial estimated prorations that are required upon review of such complete information shall be made by Buyer and Seller, with due diligence and cooperation, by prompt cash payment to the party entitled to a credit as a result of such adjustments. Any errors or adjustments in calculations of the foregoing adjustments shall be corrected or adjusted as soon as practicable after Close of Escrow.

Such withholding shall not place Buyer in default under this Agreement, and Seller shall not be entitled to claim that such withholding shall excuse Seller’s performance under this Agreement.

      12. Brokerage Commission. Upon Close of Escrow, a real estate sales commission (the “Commission”) shall be paid by Seller to Sabella & Lipman (“Seller’s Broker”) in an amount as agreed upon in writing between Seller and Broker. Except for Seller’s payment of such commission (from payment of which Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer), each party to this Agreement warrants to the other that no person or entity can properly claim a right to a real estate commission, finder’s fee or other real estate brokerage-type compensation (collectively, “Real Estate Compensation”) based upon the acts of that party with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Each party hereby agrees to indemnify and defend the other (by counsel reasonably acceptable to the party seeking indemnification) against and hold the other harmless from and against any and all loss, damage, liability or expense, including costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from any claims for Real Estate Compensation by any person or entity based upon such acts.

Upon termination of this Agreement, neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement.

                    13.3. No Election to Terminate. If Buyer does not exercise the option to terminate this Agreement, neither Buyer nor Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. However, Buyer shall be entitled to receive and keep at Close of Escrow all insurance proceeds, in the event of a casualty, and all rights to receive future awards, in the case of a taking by condemnation or eminent domain with respect to the Property, and Close of Escrow shall be consummated pursuant to the terms hereof without any reduction in the Purchase Price.
