1.3.                              Amount and Payment of Purchase Price.

 

Subject to all the terms and conditions hereof, and in particular Section 1.4 hereof, the purchase price (“Purchase Price”) shall be Twenty One Million Nine Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars ($21,980,000.00). The Purchase Price shall be allocated Thirteen Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($13,100,000.) to Irmo and Eight Million Eight Hundred and Eighty Thousand Dollars ($8,880,000.) to Evans. The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:

value assigned to each such unleased store. For example, if Suite 7 in Evans is unleased as of the Closing Date, then that portion of the Purchase Price allocated to Evans shall be reduced by $51,888.00. then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the stipulated value assigned to each such unleased store. For example, if Suite 7 in Evans is unleased as of the Closing Date, then that portion of the Purchase Price allocated to Evans shall be reduced by $51,888.00. –If, at Closing, there is a fully executed lease on one or more of the stores shown on Exhibit B, and such lease or leases meet all of the requirements of this Section 14 except that one or more of the requirements set forth in subsections. 14 (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) have not been satisfied (such leases are herein called “Non-Conforming Leases”), then the amount by which the Purchase Price is so reduced shall be deposited in escrow with the Escrow Agent. If, within twelve (12) months following Closing, all of the requirements of subsections 14 (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) have been satisfied for any Non-Conforming Lease, then the Purchaser shall so notify the Escrow Agent and the Seller in writing, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall immediately pay over to Seller the amount of the escrow deposit attributed to the Non-Conforming Lease or Leases in question. If, within twelve (12) months following Closing, all of the requirements of subsections 14 (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) have not been satisfied for any Non-Conforming Lease, then the Purchaser shall so notify the Escrow Agent and the Seller, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall immediately pay over to Purchaser the amount of the escrow deposit attributed to the Non-Conforming Lease or Leases in question.

 

ARTICLE 2

EVALUATION PERIOD; ACTIONS PRIOR TO CLOSING

 

2.1.                              Evaluation Period; Tests.

 

Buyer shall have a period commencing with the date of this Agreement, which shall be the date upon which the last of Buyer and Seller have executed this Agreement (the “Effective Date”) and terminating at 6:00 p.m. Chicago, Illinois time on the thirtieth (30) day thereafter (the “Evaluation Period”) to make and conduct any and all investigations (including but not limited to investigations of the matters pertaining to the Property which are disclosed, by reference or otherwise, in this Agreement and its Exhibits), tests, engineering evaluations, economic feasibility evaluations, design evaluations, review of all financial and property-related information, review of County real estate taxes, building code and zoning records pertaining to the Property, and any other tests, studies, or evaluations which Buyer may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or desirable in order to evaluate the Property, and to review the leases of portions of the Property (“Leases”) and the suitability of the Property for Buyer’s purposes. In the event that Buyer shall, in its sole discretion, determine that the Property (and the terms and conditions of the Leases) are suitable for Buyer’s purposes, then Buyer may, by giving written notice (“Notice to Proceed”) to Seller at any time prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period, elect to proceed with this Agreement. All studies and tests made or conducted by or for Buyer pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be at Buyer’s sole cost and expense and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.1.1. In the event that Closing does not occur under this Agreement for any reason other than Seller’s default, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement purporting to terminate all rights and obligations hereunder, all data and material, including plans, specifications, surveys, title commitments, engineering studies and drawings, surveys, sketches, test results, contracts, agreements and Leases relating to the Property delivered by Seller to Buyer shall, at Seller’s request, be returned by Buyer to Seller.

If, on or prior to the date of expiration of the Evaluation Period, Buyer shall either fail to give Seller Notice to Proceed, or shall fail to give Seller written notice of its election to terminate this Agreement, then Buyer shall be deemed to have terminated this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.1 whereupon the Deposit shall be immediately refunded to Buyer, this Agreement shall become null and void and all parties hereto shall be released from all liability and responsibility hereunder.

 

It shall be clearly understood that the Buyer may give Notice to Proceed only with respect to both Irmo and Evans.

(b)         To enter, or cause its agents or representatives to enter, upon the Property for the purpose of making any of the aforesaid tests, investigations and/or studies. Any exercise by Buyer of its rights to perform tests upon the Property pursuant to Section 2.1, this Section 2.1.1 or any other provision of this Agreement or to review the files and records of Seller or the manager of the Property (the “Manager”) shall only be taken or made upon reasonable prior notice to Seller and to the Manager. All tests, inspections, reports and investigations made by or for Buyer pursuant to Section 2.1, this Section 2.1.1 or any other provision of this Agreement shall be at Buyer’s sole risk, cost and expense and all such tests, inspections, reports and investigations shall (to the extent conducted or made at the Property) be conducted or made with due regard to the business operations being conducted at the Property and the rights, privileges and convenience of Seller’s tenants, guests, invitees and licensees; and

 

(c)          In connection with any entry upon the Property prior to Closing, Buyer shall (i) permit a representative of Seller to accompany Buyer and (ii) indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless Seller from any and all damage to the Property or injury to persons caused by such entry and at Seller’s option, prior to Buyer’s entry upon the Property, Buyer shall provide Seller with a certificate evidencing liability insurance in the amount of not less than $1,000,000., naming Seller as an additional insured.

 

2.1.2.                     Access to Information. Within five (5) days of the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver the Buyer the items set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto, except for those items crossed out or noted on Exhibit C as, “not applicable”, “Seller not to provide” and those items not considered as applicable under item 2 of Expense Information on Exhibit C.

Seller shall cause all mortgages, deeds of trust and monetary liens (including liens for delinquent taxes, mechanics’ liens and judgment liens) affecting the Property and all indebtedness secured thereby (the “Monetary Liens”) to be fully satisfied, released and discharged of record on or prior to the Closing Date.

CLOSING COSTS AND ADJUSTMENTS

 

6.1.                              Closing Costs.

 

Buyer shall pay the costs of recording the deed and other title transfer documents and cost of any financing obtained by Buyer, including the fee owner’s and any mortgagee’s title policy, premiums, title commitment fees, recording fees, commitment fees and mortgage loan fee. Each party shall bear the fees of its respective attorneys and advisors. Seller shall pay any brokerage commission due Seller’s agent, Trammell Crow Company, in connection with this sale and purchase transaction. Realty transfer taxes shall be paid by Seller. Buyer shall pay for the cost of the survey referenced in Section 2.3 hereof.

 

6.2.                              Closing Adjustments.

 

6.2.1.                     Except as hereinafter specifically provided to the contrary, all minimum rent, additional rent and other sums payable under the Leases; all current operating expenses, all real estate taxes, (on the basis of the actual fiscal years for which such taxes are assessed), other taxes and assessments (whether general or special); and all utilities, water and sewer charges

 

13



 

(excluding, however, any utilities, water and sewer charges paid or payable directly by the tenants under the Leases), shall be adjusted and prorated as of Closing. Any credit due to Buyer pursuant to this subsection 6.2.1 shall be applied against the Purchase Price; and any credit due to Seller pursuant to this Section 6.2.1 shall be paid by Buyer to Seller at Closing as an addition to the Purchase Price in the manner of payment set forth in Section 1.3.3.

 

6.2.2.                       Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that it may not be possible to effect a final reconciliation of all income and expense items that are to be adjusted until after Closing. The parties agree to cooperate in good faith in effecting such a final reconciliation and each party shall promptly pay (or reimburse the other party for) any expenses item that is chargeable to the other party and shall promptly remit any income item to the other party if entitled thereto. Seller covenants that it shall retain the financial ability to make such adjustments.

 

6.2.3.                       Seller shall use its best efforts to arrange for the rendition of final bills by the utility companies involved as of Closing (excluding, however, any bills for utilities consumed by an individual tenant if such tenant is obligated by its lease to pay separately for the utilities consumed by it), but in the event such final bills cannot be rendered or obtained by Closing, final adjustments shall be made within sixty (60) days after Closing.

 

6.2.4.                       Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, rent in arrears for months prior to Closing shall not be prorated. Buyer shall promptly pay to Seller any rental received by Buyer attributable to rents in arrears as of Closing (and Buyer shall apply any rental received to the most current rental due and owing when such payment was made). Buyer shall use reasonable efforts to collect back rent due Seller, but shall not be required to file suit or to evict delinquent tenants. Within ninety (90) days after Closing, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a written report setting forth the status of its collection of delinquent rents as of sixty (60) days after Closing. The terms of this Section 6.2.4 shall survive Closing.

 

6.2.5.                       The apportionment of percentage rental, if any, payable under any of the Leases (“Percentage Rent”) (and the amounts due Buyer and Seller respectively under each of the Leases with respect thereto) shall be made and paid on or before the thirtieth (30th) day following the date when the last amount due on account of such Percentage Rent shall have been paid by the tenant under its Lease with respect to the percentage rent lease year (as defined in each of the Leases) in which the Closing occurs. The amount to be apportioned shall be the total of the amounts collected by both Buyer and Seller as percentage rent for such percentage rent lease year. Seller’s portion thereof shall be an amount which bears the same ratio to the total percentage rent for the applicable percentage rent lease year as the number of days up to and including the date of Closing in such percentage rent lease year shall bear to the full number of days in such percentage rent lease year; and Buyer shall be entitled to the remaining portion. Buyer shall use its reasonable efforts to cause all Percentage Rent payments for the percentage rent lease years with respect to which percentage rent is to be apportioned between Buyer and Seller to be paid to Buyer by all tenants under the Leases; and Buyer shall divide and distribute the amounts so collected between Buyer and Seller in accordance with the provisions hereof. Each of Seller and Buyer shall deliver to the other (promptly after receipt) copies of all sales reports received by it from tenants under the Leases for the percentage rent lease years in which the date of Closing occurs.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.2.5., it is understood and agreed that if, at the time of Buyer’s receipt of percentage rent from a particular tenant, such tenant is in arrears for all or any portion if its 2005 pass-through charges (the “Pass Through Charge Arrearage”) then the Seller shall only be entitled to receive its portion of that amount of

 

14



 

the percentage rent payment which exceeds the amount of the Pass-Through Charge Arrearage.

The claims retained and reserved to Seller pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.2.6 shall be limited to claims and actions for the collection of money, and at no time shall Seller have the right after the completion of Closing to seek ejectment of a tenant under any of the Leases or termination of a Lease.

ARTICLE 7
CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

 

7.1.                              Casualty.

 

7.1.1.                        Subject to the provisions of this Article 7, risk of loss or damage to the Real Property from fire or other casualty shall remain on Seller until Closing.

 

7.1.2.                        If any of the improvements included in the Real Property shall be destroyed or damaged prior to the Closing, and if either the estimated cost of repair or replacement exceeds Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.), or the damage permits the termination of one or more of the Leases or, except to the extent affected by the matters described in Exhibit K, causes loss of parking or access, Buyer may, by written notice given to Seller within twenty (20) days after receipt of written notice from Seller of such damage or destruction, elect to terminate this Agreement, in which event the rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities of all parties hereunder shall immediately terminate and be of no further force or effect, and the Deposit shall forthwith be returned to Buyer. If Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1.2, or has no right to terminate this Agreement (because the damage or destruction does not exceed $500,000.00 and does not permit the termination of one or more of the Leases), or there is no loss of parking or access other than such as results from the matters described in Exhibit K hereof, and the sale of the Property is consummated, Purchaser shall receive an assignment of all insurance proceeds paid or payable to Seller by reason of such destruction or damage under Seller’s insurance policies (less amounts of insurance theretofore received and applied by Seller to costs actually incurred for restoration), together with a credit in the amount of Seller’s deductible. Seller shall not settle or release any damage or destruction claims without obtaining Buyer’s prior written consent in each case. All said insurance proceeds received by Seller by the date of Closing shall be paid by Seller to Buyer at Closing. In addition, at Closing, Seller shall pay over to Buyer and assign to Buyer, all proceeds of any rent loss insurance for the period of time commencing on the date of Closing. If the amount of said casualty or rent loss

 

15



 

insurance proceeds is not settled by the date or Closing, Seller shall execute at Closing all proofs of loss, assignments of claim, and other similar instruments in order that Buyer receive all of Seller’s right, title, and interest in and under said insurance proceeds.

 

7.2.                              Condemnation.

 

If, on or prior to the Closing, any portion of the Property except as set forth on Exhibit I is subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation by a body having the power of eminent domain or is taken by eminent domain or condemnation (or sale in lieu thereof), or if Seller has received notice that any condemnation action or proceeding with respect to the Property is contemplated by a body having the power of eminent domain, Seller shall give Buyer immediate written notice of such threatened or contemplated condemnation or of such taking or sale, and Buyer may by written notice to Seller given within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such notice from Seller, elect to cancel this Agreement. If Buyer chooses to cancel this Agreement in accordance with this Section 7.2, the rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities of the parties hereunder shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect. If Buyer does not elect to cancel this Agreement in accordance herewith, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the sale of the Property contemplated by this Agreement, less any interest taken by eminent domain or condemnation, or sale in lieu thereof, shall be effected with no further adjustment and without reduction of the Purchase Price, and at the Closing, Seller shall assign, transfer, and set over to Buyer all of the right, title, and interest of Seller in and to any awards that have been or that may thereafter be made for such taking. At such time as all or a part of the Property is subjected to a bona fide threat of condemnation and Buyer shall not have elected to terminate this Agreement as hereinabove provided, Purchase shall be permitted to participate in the proceedings as if Buyer were a party to the action. Seller shall not settle or agree to any award or payment pursuant to condemnation, eminent domain, or sale in lieu thereof without obtaining Buyer’s prior written consent thereto in each case.

MISCELLANEOUS

 

9.1.          Brokerage.

 

Seller and Buyer represent and warrant to each other that neither has dealt with a broker in connection with this transaction except as set forth below. Seller and Buyer each warrant and represent to the other that, except as set forth below, no agent, broker, or finder has acted for the warranting party in connection with this Agreement or is entitled to compensation on account of the transactions contemplated hereby. Seller acknowledges that it has utilized the services of Trammell Crow Company in connection with this transaction, and shall pay all brokerage commissions for the services of Trammell Crow Company. The obligations of the parties pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall survive Closing hereof and any termination hereof.

 

9.2.          Remedies Upon Default.

 

9.2.1.                           Buyer and Seller agree that it would be impracticable and difficult to ascertain the actual damages which would be suffered by Seller if Buyer wrongfully fails to consummate the purchase and sale contemplated herein. Buyer and Seller have carefully considered the loss to Seller occasioned by taking the Property off the market as a consequence of the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, the Seller’s performance hereunder, and the other damages, general and special, which Buyer and Seller realize and recognize Seller will sustain but which cannot be calculated with certainty. Based on all those considerations, Buyer and Seller have agreed that the damage to Seller from an uncured breach by Buyer of its obligation to complete Closing would reasonably be expected to equal the amount of the Deposit. Accordingly, if all conditions precedent to Buyer’s obligation to consummate the transactions herein contemplated have been waived by Buyer or satisfied, but Buyer does not timely complete Closing, and if Buyer fails to cure such breach or default within ten (10) days after written notice thereof from Seller, the Seller shall as its sole and exclusive remedy, be entitled to be paid, and to retain, the Deposit as full and complete liquidated damages. Thereafter, this Agreement shall terminate, and the parties hereto shall have no further rights or obligations to each other under this Agreement, either at law or in equity or otherwise, except that the obligations of Buyer pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.1.1(c)(ii) shall continue in full force and effect.

 

9.2.2.                           If all conditions precedent to Seller’s obligations to consummate the transactions herein contemplated have been waived by Seller or satisfied and if Buyer has materially performed its covenants and obligations and is not otherwise in material default hereunder, but Seller has breached its covenants, warranties, representations, agreements, undertakings, or obligations or is otherwise in default hereunder and, as a result, is unable to consummate the

 

17



 

purchase and sale contemplated herein at Closing and if Seller fails to cure such breach or default within thirty (30) days after notice thereof from Buyer, or if all conditions precedent to Buyer’s obligation to consummate the transactions herein contemplated have not been waived by Buyer or satisfied, then the sole and exclusive remedies of Buyer shall be either to terminate this Agreement by giving Seller written notice of termination, in which event the Deposit shall be forthwith returned to Buyer, and the parties hereto shall have no further rights or obligations to each other under this Agreement, either at law or in equity or otherwise, or to waive such breach, failure to satisfy condition(s) precedent or default and bring an action against Seller for specific performance of its obligations hereunder to sell and convey the Property to Buyer.

 

9.3.          Indemnification.

 

9.3.1.                       Buyer and Seller each agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against all claims, demands, debts, dues, liabilities, actions, causes of action, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that may be asserted against or paid or incurred by the indemnified party for, on account of, or in connection with any breach by the indemnifying party of its payment obligations and/or warranties and representations contained in Section 9.1.

 

9.3.2.                       The indemnity contained in this Section 9.3 shall survive Closing or any sooner termination of this Agreement.

 

9.4.          Amendment.

 

This Agreement may not be modified, amended, or discharged, and no provision hereof may be waived, except by an instrument in writing and duly executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment, modification, discharge, or waiver is sought.

 

9.5.          Notices.

 

All notices, waivers, approvals, consents, demands, requests, or other communications (collectively, “Notices”) which may be or are required to be given, served, or sent by any party hereto to the other party hereto pursuant to, or in connection with, this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be hand delivered, sent by Federal Express, or similar overnight service, or mailed by first class, registered, or certified mail, return receipt requested, or transmitted by telegram, telex, or telecopy, addressed as follows:

9.10.        Construction.

 

Buyer and Seller acknowledge that they both participated equally in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and that, accordingly, no court construing this Agreement shall construe it more stringently against one of such parties than against the other.

This Agreement, including the Exhibits which are an integral part hereof, constitutes the entire agreement between Seller and Buyer with respect to the transactions contemplated herein, and it supersedes all prior oral or written agreements, commitments, or understandings with respect to the matters provided for herein. No agreements, representations, or warranties have been made by Buyer or Seller except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, and in particular, no oral or written expression, or non-verbal conduct of a person intended by such person as a substitute for oral or written expression, will be attributed to Buyer or Seller as an agreement or a warranty or representation, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 9.11 shall survive Closing or a termination of this Agreement.

 

9.12.        Pronouns.

 

All pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the person or entity may require.

 

9.13.        Headings.

Seller and Buyer will cooperate with each other to assure that the withholding requirements, if any, of each state are complied with.
