Due Diligence. Buyer will have thirty (30) days from the earlier to occur of (a) delivery of the ROFR Waiver to Buyer by Seller and (b) written notice from Seller to Buyer of expiration of the Exercise Period without an exercise by Arundel Mills of the right of first refusal (the "Review Period") to conduct all of its inspections and due diligence and satisfy itself regarding the Property and this transaction. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless for any loss or damage to the Property or persons ...caused by Buyer or its agents arising out of such physical inspections of the Property, and this indemnity shall survive Closing or termination of this Agreement. Within three (3) business days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Seller shall provide, to the extent such items are in its possession, the items listed on Exhibit "B" ("Seller's Materials"). 2 Buyer may cancel this Agreement before the expiration of the Review Period for any reason in its sole discretion by delivering a cancellation notice to Seller and Closing Agent prior to the expiration of the Review Period. If this Agreement is not cancelled as set forth above, the Earnest Money shall be non-refundable unless Seller shall default hereunder, or in the event of a casualty or condemnation, subject to the provisions of Section 17 below. If Buyer cancels this Agreement before the expiration of the Review Period, as permitted under this Section, except for any escrow cancellation fees charged by the Title Company and any liabilities under the first paragraph of Section 6 of this Agreement and those provisions stating otherwise (which will survive), Seller (after execution of such documents reasonably requested by Seller to evidence the termination hereof) shall return to Buyer its Earnest Money and Buyer will have absolutely no rights, claims or interest of any type in connection with the Property or this transaction, regardless of any alleged conduct by Buyer, Seller or anyone else. If Buyer fails to close this transaction at no fault of Seller, Buyer will be irrevocably deemed in default of this Agreement. Upon default by Buyer, Seller may, as its option, retain the Earnest Money as its sole and exclusive remedy and declare this Agreement null and void, in which event Buyer will be deemed to have cancelled this Agreement and relinquish all rights in and to the Property, or Seller may exercise its rights hereunder. The Review Period will be deemed satisfied if Buyer has deposited the Earnest Money as required by Section 4 hereof, and this agreement is not cancelled. View More
