ARTICLE VI
TITLE AND SURVEY MATTERS

 

Section 6.1            Survey . Purchaser acknowledges receipt of the Existing Survey. Any modification, update or recertification of the Existing Survey shall be at Purchaser’s election and sole cost and expense. Any updated survey that Purchaser has elected to obtain, if any, is herein referred to as the “ Updated Survey .” Purchaser shall have until March 24, 2014 to obtain an Updated Survey and to deliver a copy of same to Seller. Any gores, strips, overlaps or potential boundary line disputes and other survey defects, including but not limited to encroachments, legal description issues, easement locations that impede or interfere with use or occupancy and similar defects shall constitute a “ Survey Objection ” under this Agreement.

 

Section 6.2            Title Commitment .

 

(a)           Purchaser has ordered a title insurance commitment with respect to the Real Property issued, by the Title Company (the “ Title Commitment ”).  On or before March 12, 2014, Purchaser shall provide to Seller the Title Commitment, together with legible copies of the title exceptions listed thereon. On or before March 28, 2014 (the “ Title Objection Date ”), Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing, if there are (i) any monetary liens or other title exceptions that Purchaser objects to (“ Title Objections ”) or (ii) any Survey Objection. In the event Seller does not receive written notice of any Title Objections or Survey Objection by the Title Objection Date, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE, then Purchaser will be deemed to have accepted or waived such exceptions to title set forth on the Title Commitment as permitted exceptions (as accepted or waived by Purchaser, the “ Permitted Exceptions ”) and shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to any Survey Objection.

 

(b)           After the Title Objection Date, if the Title Company raises any new exception to title to the Real Property, Purchaser’s counsel shall have five (5) Business Days after he or she receives notice of such exception (the “ New Objection Date ”) (or as promptly as possible prior to the Closing if such notice is received with less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing), to provide Seller with written notice if such exception constitutes a Title Objection. In the event Seller does not receive notice of such Title Objection by the New Objection Date, Purchaser will be deemed to have accepted the exceptions to title set forth on any updates to the Title Commitment as Permitted Exceptions.

 

(c)           All taxes, water rates or charges, sewer rents and assessments, plus interest and penalties thereon, which on the Closing Date are liens against the Real Property and which Seller is obligated to pay and discharge will be credited against the Purchase Price (subject to the provision for apportionment of taxes, water rates and sewer rents herein contained) and shall not be deemed a Title Objection. If on the Closing Date there shall be security interests filed against the Real Property, such items shall not be Title Objections if (i) the personal property covered by such security interests are no longer in or on the Real Property, or (ii) such personal property is

 

14

 

the property of a Tenant, and Seller executes and delivers an affidavit to such effect, or the security interest was filed more than five (5) year prior to the Closing Date and was not renewed.

 

(d)           If on the Closing Date the Real Property shall be affected by any lien which, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, is required to be discharged or satisfied by Seller, Seller shall not be required to discharge or satisfy the same of record provided the money necessary to satisfy the lien is retained by the Title Company at Closing, and the Title Company either omits the lien as an exception from the title insurance commitment or insures against collection thereof from out of the Real Property, and a credit is given to Purchaser for the recording charges for a satisfaction or discharge of such lien.

 

(e)           No franchise, transfer, inheritance, income, corporate or other tax open, levied or imposed against Seller or any former owner of the Property, that may be a lien against the Property on the Closing Date, shall be an objection to title if the Title Company insures against collection thereof from or out of the Real Property and/or the Improvements, and provided further that Seller deposits with the Title Company a sum of money or a parental guaranty reasonably acceptable to the Title Company and sufficient to secure a release of the Property from the lien thereof. If a search of title discloses judgments, bankruptcies, or other returns against other persons having names the same as or similar to that of Seller, Seller will deliver to Purchaser an affidavit stating that such judgments, bankruptcies or other returns do not apply to Seller, and such search results shall not be deemed Title Objections.

 

Section 6.3            Title Defect .

 

(a)           In the event Seller receives notice of any Survey Objection or Title Objection (collectively and individually a “ Title Defect ”) within the time periods required under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 above, Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to attempt to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any such Title Defect, and shall provide Purchaser with notice within five (5) days of its receipt of any such objection, of its intention to attempt to cure such any such Title Defect. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Title Defect, the Scheduled Closing Date shall be extended for a period of twenty (20) days for the purpose of such removal.  In the event that (i) Seller elects not to attempt to cure any such Title Defect, or (ii) Seller is unable to cure any such Title Defect within such twenty (20) days from the Scheduled Closing Date, Seller shall so notify Purchaser and Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.3(a) and receive a refund of the Earnest Money Deposit, together with all interest which has accrued thereon, or to waive such Title Defect and proceed to the Closing. Purchaser shall make such election by written notice to Seller within three (3) days after receipt of Seller’s notice. If Seller has elected to cure a Title Defect and thereafter fails to timely cure such Title Defect, and Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, then (i) Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses payable to third parties in connection with this transaction incurred after the date on which Seller informed Purchaser of its election to cure the Title Defect, not to exceed the Reimbursement Cap, and (ii) Purchaser shall promptly return Purchaser’s Information to Seller, after which neither party shall have any further obligation to the other under this Agreement except for the Termination Surviving Obligations. If Purchaser elects to proceed to the Closing, any Title Defects waived by Purchaser shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Exceptions, and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. If, within the three-day period, Purchaser fails to notify Seller of Purchaser’s

 

15

 

election to terminate, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the Title Defect and to have elected to proceed to the Closing.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding any provision of this Article VI to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated to cure exceptions to title to the Property, in the manner described above, relating to liens and security interests securing any financings to Seller, any judgment liens, which are in existence on the Effective Date, or which come into existence after the Effective Date, and any mechanic’s liens resulting from work at the Property commissioned by Seller; provided, however, that any such mechanic’s lien may be cured by bonding in accordance with New York law. In addition, Seller shall be obligated to pay off any outstanding real estate taxes that were due and payable prior to the Closing (but subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 10.4 below).

Section 7.1            Interim Operating Covenants . Seller covenants to Purchaser that Seller will:

 

(a)           Operations and Leasing . From the Effective Date until Closing, continue to operate, manage and maintain the Property in the ordinary course of Seller’s business and substantially in accordance with Seller’s present practice, subject to ordinary wear and tear, and further subject to Article XI of this Agreement. From the Effective Date through the expiration of the Evaluation Period, Seller will notify Purchaser of any new Leases or amendments to existing Leases and provide copies thereof to Purchaser, along with notice of the anticipated expenditures in connection therewith to the extent known to Seller at such time, if such expenditures are not set forth in the amendment or new Lease, and will notify Purchaser of any real estate tax appeals initiated or settled during such period, but Purchaser shall have no right to approve any new Leases or Lease amendments or the initiation or settlement of any real estate tax appeals during such period (for the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall not be obligated to provide notice of tenant inducements that are set forth in a Lease amendment or new Lease, such as notice of the landlord’s tenant improvement or moving expense, obligations, even if the amendment or Lease does not set forth a specific dollar amount or maximum expenditure in connection with such inducement, unless Seller has already obtained a cost estimate for such item). Nothing herein shall require Seller to obtain written cost estimates for tenant improvements, but if Seller has them, it will deliver them to Purchaser along with the other new lease or lease amendment documents. After the expiration of the Evaluation Period and Purchaser’s posting of the Additional Deposit with the Escrow Agent, Seller shall not amend any existing Lease or enter into any new Lease, or initiate or settle any tax appeal, without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  It shall be reasonable for Purchaser to reject a proposed lease due to (i) rent amounts or free rent, (ii) tenant improvement allowances, (iii) term, (iv) creditworthiness of tenant, (v) landlord obligations such as requiring Purchaser to construct additional parking spaces at the Property and (vi) other reasonable underwriting criteria. From the expiration of the Evaluation Period and continuing through and after the Closing, Seller expressly reserves the right to prosecute and settle, subject to Purchaser’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably

withheld, conditioned, or delayed, any tax appeals that pertain to tax years prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurs.

 

(b)           Compliance with Governmental Regulations . From the Effective Date until Closing, not knowingly take any action that Seller knows would result in a failure to comply in any material respects with any Governmental Regulations applicable to the Property, it being understood and agreed that prior to Closing, Seller will have the right to contest any such Governmental Regulations so long as there is no penalty or fine as a result thereof.

 

(c)           Service Contracts . From the expiration of the Evaluation Period until Closing, not enter into any service contract other than in the ordinary course of business, unless such service contract is terminable on thirty (30) days notice without penalty or unless Purchaser consents thereto in writing, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

(d)           Notices . To the extent received by Seller, from the Effective Date until Closing, promptly deliver to Purchaser copies of written default notices, notices of lawsuits and notices of violations affecting the Property.

 

(e)           Representations and Warranties . Three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period, Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing of any changes in the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 8.1 below.

 

(f)            No New Liens and Encumbrances . After the Evaluation. Period, Seller shall not encumber the Property with any new lien or encumbrance.

 

Section 7.2            Estoppels . It will be a condition to Closing that Seller obtain from each Major Tenant an executed estoppel certificate in the form, or limited to the substance, prescribed by each Major Tenant’s Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller agrees to request that each Major Tenant and other Tenants in the buildings and any REA Party execute an estoppel certificate in the form reasonably requested by Purchaser and annexed hereto as Exhibit G or such form as reasonably required by Purchaser’s lenders if such form is provided to Seller at least five (5) days prior to the end of the Evaluation Period. No later than five (5) Business Days after the end of the Evaluation Period, Seller will request each Major Tenant and other Tenants in the buildings and any REA Party to execute an estoppel certificate in the form of Exhibit G or such form as reasonably required by Purchaser’s lenders if such form is provided to Seller at least five (5) days prior to the end of the Evaluation Period and use good faith efforts to obtain same. Seller shall not be in default of its obligations hereunder if any Major Tenant or other Tenant or REA Party fails to deliver an estoppel certificate, or delivers an estoppel certificate which is not in accordance with this Agreement.

 

Section 7.3            SNDAs .   Upon Purchaser’s request, Seller shall deliver to each Major Tenant a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement (“ SNDA ”) in the form, or limited to the substance, prescribed by each Major Tenant’s Lease, or if no form is required or substance prescribed, then in a commercially reasonable form required by Purchaser’s lender, provided such form is provided to Seller at least five (5) days prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period.  Seller shall not be in default of its obligations hereunder if any Major Tenant

 

17

 

fails to deliver an SNDA, or delivers a SNDA which is not in accordance with this Agreement and the delivery of any SNDA shall not be a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligations to complete Closing.

 

Section 7.4            Rights of First Offer.   Seller has informed Purchaser that the third parties listed on Schedule 7.4 (each a “ ROFO Party ” and collectively, the “ ROFO Parties ”) possess rights of first offer to purchase the Property (collectively, the “ ROFO Rights ”).  Seller has further informed Purchaser that notice of the transaction contemplated hereunder has been given to each of the ROFO Parties in accordance with the ROFO Rights (the “ ROFO Notice ”).  Seller shall promptly provide notice to Purchaser of its receipt of any notice or other communication, written or oral, from any ROFO Party to exercise, or to decline to exercise, such ROFO Right, and, in the case of a written communication, copies thereof.  If any ROFO Party exercises its ROFO Rights (each, a “ ROFO Election ”), this Agreement shall automatically terminate.  If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.4, the Earnest Money Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser, together with all interest which has accrued thereon and Purchaser shall be entitled to a reimbursement of its reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses payable to third parties in connection with this transaction, provided that the reimbursement by Seller to Purchaser under this Agreement shall not exceed the Reimbursement Cap (as hereinafter defined) and except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations, this Agreement shall be null and void and the parties shall have no further obligation to each other hereunder.

(ii)                                   Cash Security Deposits and any prepaid rents, together with any interest required to be paid thereon.

 

(iii)                                Utility charges payable by Seller, including, without limitation, electricity, water charges and sewer charges. If there are meters on the Real Property, final readings and final billings for utilities will be made if possible on the day before the Closing Date, in which event no proration will be made at the Closing with respect to utility bills. If meter readings on the day before the Closing Date are not possible, then Seller will cause readings of all said meters to be performed not more than five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, and a per diem adjustment shall be made for the days between the meter reading date and the Closing Date based on the most recent meter reading. Seller will be entitled to

 

25

 

all deposits presently in effect with the utility providers, and Purchaser will be obligated to make its own arrangements for any deposits with the utility providers.  In addition, the parties shall prorate and adjust utility charges in accordance with local custom.

 

(iv)                               Amounts payable under the Apex Agreement, and under the Service Contracts other than those Service Contracts which Purchaser has elected not to assume by written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period.

 

(v)                                  Real estate taxes due and payable for the calendar year. If the Closing Date shall occur before the tax rate is fixed, the apportionment of real estate taxes shall be upon the basis of the tax rate for the preceding year applied to the latest assessed valuation. If, subsequent to the Closing Date, real estate taxes (by reason of change in either assessment or rate or for any other reason other than as a result of the final determination or settlement of any tax appeal) for the Real Property should be determined to be higher or lower than those that are apportioned, a new computation shall be made, and Seller agrees to pay Purchaser any increase shown by such recomputation and vice versa; provided, however, that if any increase in the assessed value of the Property results from improvements made to the Property by Purchaser, then Purchaser shall be solely responsible for any increase in taxes attributable thereto. With respect to tax appeals, any tax refunds or credits attributable to tax years prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurs shall belong solely to Seller, regardless of whether such refunds are paid or credits are given before or after Closing. Any tax refunds or credits attributable to the tax year in which the Closing occurs shall be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser based on their respective periods of ownership in such tax year. The expenses of any tax appeals shall be apportioned between the parties in the same manner as the refunds and/or credits. The provisions of this Section 10.4(a)(v) shall survive the Closing.

 

(vi)                               The value of fuel stored at the Real Property, at Seller’s most recent cost, including taxes, on the basis of a reading made within ten (10) days prior to the Closing by Seller’s supplier.

 

(b)                                  Seller will be charged and credited for the amounts of all of the Proration Items relating to the period up to and including the Proration Time, and Purchaser will be charged and credited for all of the Proration Items relating to the period after the Proration Time. The estimated Closing prorations shall be set forth on a preliminary closing statement to be prepared by Seller and submitted to Purchaser prior to the Closing Date (the “ Closing Statement ”). The Closing Statement, once agreed upon, shall be signed by Purchaser and Seller. The proration shall be paid at Closing by Purchaser to Seller (if the prorations result in a net credit to Seller) or by Seller to Purchaser (if the prorations result in a net credit to Purchaser) by increasing or reducing the cash to be delivered by Purchaser in payment of the Purchase Price at the Closing. If the actual amounts of the Proration Items are not known as of the Closing Date, the prorations will be made at Closing on the basis of the best evidence then available; thereafter, when actual figures are received, re-prorations will be made on the basis of the actual figures,

 

26

 

and a final cash settlement will be made between Seller and Purchaser. No prorations will be made in relation to insurance premiums, and Seller’s insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser. The provisions of this Section 10.4(b) will survive the Closing for twelve (12) months.

 

(c)                                   Purchaser will receive a credit on the Closing Statement for the prorated amount (as of the Proration Time) of all Rental previously paid to or collected by Seller and attributable to any period following the Proration Time. After the Closing, Seller will cause to be paid or turned over to Purchaser all Rental, if any, received by Seller after Closing and attributable to any period following the Proration Time. “ Rental ” as used herein includes fixed monthly rentals, additional rentals, percentage rentals, escalation rentals (which include each Tenant’s proration share of building operation and maintenance costs and expenses as provided for under the Lease, to the extent the same exceeds any expense stop specified in such Lease), retroactive rentals, all administrative charges, utility charges, tenant or real property association dues, storage rentals, special event proceeds, temporary rents, telephone receipts, locker rentals, vending machine receipts and other sums and charges payable by Tenants under the Leases or from other occupants or users of the Property. Rental is “Delinquent” when it was due prior to the Closing Date, and payment thereof has not been made on or before the Proration Time. Delinquent Rental will not be prorated. Purchaser agrees to use good faith collection procedures with respect to the collection of any Delinquent Rental. All sums collected by Purchaser in the month of Closing shall be applied to the month of Closing. All sums collected by Purchaser thereafter from each Tenant (excluding tenant specific billings for tenant work orders and other specific services as described in and governed by Section 10.4(e) below) will be applied first to current amounts owed by such Tenant to Purchaser, and then delinquencies owed by such Tenant to Seller. Any sums due Seller will be promptly remitted to Seller.  Purchaser shall not modify, amend or terminate any existing agreements with Tenants relating to past rent due.

 

(d)                                  At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a list of additional rent, however characterized, under each Lease, including without limitation, real estate taxes, electrical charges, utility costs, easement charges and operating expenses (collectively, “ Operating Expenses ”) billed to Tenants for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs (both on a monthly basis and in the aggregate), the basis on which the monthly amounts are being billed and the amounts actually incurred by Seller on account of the components of Operating Expenses for such calendar year. Upon the reconciliation by Purchaser of the estimated Operating Expenses billed to Tenants, and the amounts actually incurred for such calendar year, Seller and Purchaser shall be liable to Tenants for the refund of any overpayments of Operating Expenses, and shall be entitled to payments from Tenants in the event of underpayments, as the case may be, on a prorata basis based upon each party’s period of ownership during such calendar year.

 

(e)                                   With respect to specific tenant billings for work orders, special items performed or provided at the request of a Tenant or other specific services, which are collected by Purchaser after the Closing Date but relate to the foregoing specific services rendered by Seller prior to the Proration Time, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall cause the first amounts collected from such Tenant to be paid to Seller on account thereof.

 

27

 

(f)                                    Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 10.4 to the contrary, Purchaser will be solely responsible for any leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs or other expenditures due with respect to any Lease amendments, renewals and/or expansions entered into or, if pursuant to options, exercised after the Effective Date.  Purchaser further agrees to be solely responsible for all leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs and other expenditures (for purposes of this Section 10.4(f), “ New Tenant Costs ”) incurred or to be incurred in connection with any new lease executed on or after the Effective Date in accordance with Section 7.1 above, and Purchaser will pay to Seller at Closing as an addition to the Purchase Price an amount equal to any New Tenant Costs paid by Seller.

 

Section 10.5                              Costs of Title Company and Closing Costs . Costs of the Title Company and other Closing costs incurred in connection with the Closing will be allocated as follows:

 

(a)                                  Seller shall pay (i) Seller’s attorney’s fees; (ii) one-half (1/2) of escrow fees, if any; (iii) the cost of recording any discharges or satisfactions of liens that are the Seller’s responsibility to cure at Closing; and (iv) the realty transfer tax.

 

(b)                                  Purchaser shall pay (i) the costs of recording the Deed to the Property and all other documents; (ii) the premium for an owner’s title insurance policy, the cost of customary title searches, the cost of any additional coverage under the title insurance policy or endorsements; (iii) all premiums and other costs for any mortgagee policy of title insurance, including but not limited to any additional coverage or endorsements required by the mortgage lender; (iv) Purchaser’s attorney’s fees; (v) one-half (1/2) of escrow fees, if any; and (vi) the costs of the Updated Survey, as provided for in Section 6.1.

 

(c)                                   Any other costs and expenses of Closing not provided for in this Section 10.5 shall be allocated between Purchaser and Seller in accordance with the custom in the area in which the Property is located.

 

Section 10.6                              Post-Closing Delivery of Tenant Notice Letters. Immediately following Closing, Purchaser will deliver to each Tenant a Tenant Notice Letter, as described in Section 10.2(e).

 

Section 10.7                              Like-Kind Exchange. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that Seller may now or hereafter desire to enter into a partially or completely nontaxable exchange (a “ Section 1031 Exchange ”) involving the Property (and/or any one or more of the properties comprising the Property) under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. In connection therewith, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller and shall take, and consent to Seller taking, any action in furtherance of effectuating a Section 1031 Exchange (including, without limitation, any action undertaken pursuant to Revenue Procedure 2000-37, 2000-40. IRB, as may hereafter be amended or revised (the “ Revenue Procedure ”)), including, without limitation, (a) permitting Seller or an “exchange accommodation titleholder” (within the meaning of the Revenue Procedure) (“ EAT ”) to assign, or cause the assignment of, this Agreement and all of Seller’s rights hereunder with respect to any or all of the Property to a “qualified intermediary” (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1031(k)-1(g)(4)(iii)) (a “ QI ”); (b) permitting Seller to assign this Agreement and all of Seller’s rights and obligations hereunder with respect to any or

 

28

 

all of the Property and/or to convey, transfer or sell any or all of the Property, to (i) an EAT; (ii) any one or more limited liability companies (“ LLCs ”) that are wholly-owned by an EAT; or (iii) any one or more LLCs that are wholly-owned by Seller and/or any affiliate of Seller and to thereafter permit Seller to assign its interest in such one or more LLCs to an EAT; and (c) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, having any or all of the Property conveyed by an EAT or any one or more of the LLCs referred to in (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) above, and allowing for the consideration therefor to be paid by an EAT, any such LLC or a QI; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be required to delay the Closing; and provided further that Seller shall provide whatever safeguards are reasonably requested by Purchaser, and not inconsistent with Seller’s desire to effectuate a Section 1031 Exchange involving any of the Property, to ensure that all of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement shall be satisfied in accordance with the terms thereof.

 

ARTICLE XI
CONDEMNATION AND CASUALTY

 

Section 11.1                              Casualty . If, prior to the Closing Date, all or a Significant Portion of the Property is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, Seller will notify Purchaser of such casualty. Purchaser will have the option to terminate this Agreement upon notice to Seller given not later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of Seller’s notice. If this Agreement is terminated, the Earnest Money Deposit and all interest accrued thereon will be returned to Purchaser and thereafter neither Seller nor Purchaser will have any further rights or obligations to the other hereunder except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement or less than a Significant Portion of the Property is destroyed or damaged as aforesaid, Seller will not be obligated to repair such damage or destruction but (a) Seller will assign and turn over to Purchaser the insurance proceeds net of reasonable collection costs (or if such have not been awarded, all of its right, title and interest therein) payable with respect to such fire or other casualty up to the amount of the Purchase Price and (b) the parties will proceed to Closing pursuant to the terms hereof without abatement of the Purchase Price, except that Purchaser will receive a credit for any insurance deductible amount. In the event Seller elects to perform any repairs as a result of a casualty, Seller will be entitled to deduct its costs and expenses from any amount to which Purchaser is entitled under this Section 11.1, which right shall survive the Closing; provided, however, that if the casualty occurs after the expiration of the Evaluation Period, then Seller’s right to make such repairs shall be subject to the prior written approval of Purchaser, which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

Section 11.2                              Condemnation of Property . In the event of (a) any condemnation or sale in lieu of condemnation of all of the Property; or (b) any condemnation or sale in lieu of condemnation of greater than ten percent (10%) of the fair market value of the Property prior to the Closing, Purchaser will have the option, to be exercised within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice of such condemnation or sale, of terminating Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement, or electing to have this Agreement remain in full force and effect. In the event that either (i) any condemnation or sale in lieu of condemnation of the Property is for less than ten percent (10%) of the fair market value of the Property, or (ii) Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding sentence, Seller will assign to Purchaser any and all claims for the proceeds of such condemnation or sale to the extent the same are applicable to the Property, and Purchaser will take title to the Property with the assignment of such proceeds and subject to such condemnation and without reduction of the Purchase Price. Should Purchaser elect

 

29

 

to terminate Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement under the provisions of this Section 11.2, the Earnest Money Deposit and any interest thereon will be returned to Purchaser and neither Seller nor Purchaser will have any further obligation under this Agreement, except for the Termination Surviving Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any eminent domain or condemnation proceeding is instituted (or notice of same is given) solely for the taking of any subsurface rights for utility easements or for any right-of-way easement, and the surface may, after such taking, be used in substantially the same manner as though such rights have not been taken, Purchaser will not be entitled to terminate this Agreement as to any part of the Property, but any award resulting therefrom will be assigned to Purchaser at Closing and will be the exclusive property of Purchaser upon Closing.

 

ARTICLE XII
CONFIDENTIALITY

 

Section 12.1                              Confidentiality . Seller and Purchaser each expressly acknowledge and agree that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the terms, conditions, and negotiations concerning the same will be held in the strictest confidence by each of them and will not be disclosed by either of them except to their respective legal counsel, accountants, consultants, officers, partners, directors, and shareholders, and except and only to the extent that such disclosure may be necessary for their respective performances hereunder. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that, unless and until the Closing occurs, all information obtained by Purchaser in connection with the Property will not be disclosed by Purchaser to any third persons without the prior written consent of Seller. Nothing contained in this Article XII will preclude or limit either party to this Agreement from disclosing or accessing any information otherwise deemed confidential under this Article XII in response to lawful process or subpoena or other valid or enforceable order of a court of competent jurisdiction or any filings with governmental authorities or stock exchange required by reason of the transactions provided for herein pursuant to advice of counsel. Nothing in this Article XII will negate, supersede or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties under the Confidentiality Agreement.  In addition, prior to, at or after the Closing, any release to the public of information with respect to the sale contemplated herein or any matters set forth in this Agreement will be made only in a form approved by Purchaser and Seller and their respective counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The provisions of this Article XII will survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE XIII
REMEDIES

 

Section 13.1                              Default by Seller . In the event the Closing and the transactions contemplated hereby do not occur as herein provided by reason of any default of Seller, Purchaser may, as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy, elect by notice to Seller within ten (10) Business Days following the Scheduled Closing Date, either of the following: (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event Purchaser will receive from the Escrow Agent the Earnest Money Deposit, together with all interest accrued thereon, and reimbursement from Seller of Purchaser’s reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses payable to third parties in connection with this transaction; provided, however, that the reimbursement by Seller to Purchaser under this Agreement shall not exceed Fifty-Eight Thousand Four Hundred Ninety-One Dollars and no/100

 

30

 

Cents ($58,491.00) (the “ Reimbursement Cap ”); whereupon Seller and Purchaser will have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations; or (b) seek to enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligation to execute the documents required to convey the Property to Purchaser, it being understood and agreed that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller hereunder. Purchaser expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event of Seller’s default hereunder. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and receive back the Earnest Money Deposit if Purchaser fails to file suit for specific performance against Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the county and state in which the Property is located on or before thirty (30) days following the Scheduled Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13.1 will limit Purchaser’s remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in pursuing remedies of a breach by Seller of any of the Termination Surviving Obligations.

 

Section 13.2                              Default by Purchaser . In the event the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein do not occur as provided herein, and if the Closing does not occur by reason of any default of Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller agree it would be impractical and extremely difficult to fix the damages which Seller may suffer. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that (a) an amount equal to the Earnest Money Deposit, together with all interest accrued thereon, is a reasonable estimate of the total net detriment Seller would suffer in the event Purchaser defaults and fails to complete the purchase of the Property, and (b) such amount will be the full, agreed and liquidated damages for Purchaser’s default and failure to complete the purchase of the Property, and will be Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law or in equity) for any default by Purchaser resulting in the failure of consummation of the Closing, whereupon this Agreement will terminate and Seller and Purchaser will have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except with respect to the Termination Surviving Obligations. The  payment of such amount as liquidated damages is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein will limit Seller’s remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in the event of a breach by Purchaser of any of the Termination Surviving Obligations.

Re:                              Lease dated                                                                   , with amendments dated                                            ( together with all amendments and modifications thereto, the “Lease”), between                                                         , as landlord, and                                                                                                (“Tenant”) (the landlord thereunder from time to time being referred to herein as “Landlord”), covering  approximately                                square feet of space (the “Leased Premises”) in a building located at                                                           , and commonly known as                                                  

 

The undersigned Tenant hereby ratifies the Lease and agrees and certifies as follows:

 

1.                                       That attached hereto as “ Exhibit A ” is a true, correct and complete copy of the Lease, together with all amendments thereto, which Lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified, supplemented or amended in any way except as set forth in “ Exhibit A .”  The Leased Premises have not been sublet in whole or in part, except                                                   , and the Lease has not been assigned or encumbered in whole or in part, whether conditionally, collaterally or otherwise, except                                                 .

 

2.                                       Tenant has accepted possession of the Leased Premises and is presently in occupancy of the Leased Premises.  The initial term of the Lease commenced on                               , and the current term of the Lease will expire on                                                           .  The Lease provides     [  ] additional successive extensions for a period of         [  ] year[s ] each.  The extension options for the following period[s] has/have been exercised:                       .

 

3.                                       Tenant began paying rent on                                           .  Tenant is obligated to pay fixed or base rent under the Lease in the annual amount of $                                , payable in monthly installments of $                          .  No rent under the Lease has been paid more than one month in advance, and no other sums have been deposited with Landlord other than $                                 deposited as security under the Lease.  Tenant is entitled to no rent concessions or free rent.

 

 

4.                                       Tenant is currently paying estimated payments of additional rent of $                     on account of real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance expenses. [ Select correct alternative A Tenant pays its full proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance expenses OR B Tenant pays Tenant’s proportionate share of the increase in real estate taxes, common maintenance expenses and insurance over the [base year/base amount] OR [                                               .]

 

5.                                       All conditions and obligations under the Lease to be satisfied or performed, or to have been satisfied or performed, by Landlord as of the date hereof have been fully satisfied or performed, including any and all conditions and obligations of Landlord relating to completion of tenant improvements and making the Leased Premises ready for occupancy by Tenant.

 

6.                                       There exist no defenses to enforcement of the Lease by Landlord, nor any rights or claims to offset with respect to rent payable under the terms of the Lease except as may be set forth in “ Exhibit A” .  To the best of Tenant’s knowledge, neither Landlord nor Tenant is in default under the Lease or in breach of its obligations thereunder, and no event has occurred or situation exists which would with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice, constitute a default or an event of default by the Tenant under the Lease.

 

7.                                       Tenant has no purchase options under the Lease or any other right or option to purchase the real property and/or improvements, or a part thereof, on which the demised premises are located.

 

8.                                       That as of this date there are no actions, whether voluntary or otherwise, pending against the Tenant or any guarantor of the Lease under the bankruptcy or insolvency laws of the United States or any state thereof.

 

9.                                       That to the best of the Tenant’s knowledge, no hazardous wastes have been generated, treated, stored or disposed of, by or on behalf of the Tenant or anyone else on the Leased Premises except for those that are customary in connection with typical office uses, and any such generation, treatment, storage and/or disposal has been in accordance with all applicable environmental laws.

 

The agreements and certifications set forth herein are made with the knowledge and intent that Purchaser and Lender will rely on them, and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Tenant.

CERTIFICATE OF NON-FOREIGN STATUS

 

Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “ Code ”), provides that under specified circumstances, a transferee of a United States real property interest must withhold tax if the transferor is a foreign person.  For United States tax purposes (including Section 1445), the owner of a disregarded entity (which has legal title to a United States real property interest under local law) will be the transferor of the real property interest and not the disregarded entity.  To inform                            (the “ Transferee ”), that withholding of tax is not required upon the disposition of a United States real property interest by                            (the “ Transferor ”), the undersigned hereby certifies the following:

 

1.                                       The Transferor is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Code and Income Tax Regulations).

 

2.                                       The Transferor is not a disregarded entity as defined in Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

 

3.                                       The Transferor’s United States taxpayer identification number is                                         .

 

4.                                       The Transferor’s office address is                                                                             .

 

The Transferor understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by the Transferee and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment or both.

 

Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have examined this certification and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it is true, correct and complete, and I further declare that I have authority to sign this document on behalf of the Transferor.
