SECTION 6. Other Provisions

6.1 Representations of the Purchaser . The Purchaser represents and warrants, as of the date this Agreement is fully executed and as of the Closing Date, that the Purchaser has taken all action required by law, and all required action under its governing documents necessary to authorize the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations hereunder.

6.2 No Representations as to the Property .

a. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Purchaser has conducted or will conduct such investigations and inspections of the Property as it desires. The Purchaser hereby affirms that the Agency, its agents, employees, and/or attorneys have not made, nor has the Purchaser relied upon any representation, warranty, or promise with respect to the Property or any other subject matter of this Agreement except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and/or the Agency Deed, including, without limitation, any warranties or representations, express or implied, as to matters of title or the existence of any easements or other encumbrances, the general plan designation, zoning, value, use, tax status or physical condition of the Property, or improvements thereon, or any part thereof, including but not limited to the flood elevations, drainage patterns and soils and subsoils composition and compaction level, and other conditions at the Property, or the existence or non‑existence of Hazardous Material or any other environmental condition on or under the Property or adjacent property, or as to the accuracy of any boundary survey or other survey or any soils reports or other plans or reports therefor.

b. Purchaser further acknowledges that the Property consists of a portion of property commonly known as the Midvale Slag Superfund Site (the “Site”). On November 16, 2004, the U.S. District Court for the District of Utah entered a Remedial Design/Remedial Action Consent Decree for the Site (Civ. No. 2:99-cv-00757-TS) (the “Consent Decree”). Pursuant to the Consent Decree, any person acquiring property within the boundaries of Operable Unit 2 (“OU2”) of the Site after the EPA has certified that the remedial action under the Consent Decree has been satisfied shall be granted the status of a “Bona Fide Prospective Buyer (“BFPP”)”. In order to maintain such BFPP status, a buyer must comply with certain requirements set forth in the Consent Decree, which include, complying with the Operation and Maintenance, Access and Institutional Controls as mandated by the Consent Decree (the “Institutional Controls”). The Purchaser also acknowledges that the Property may be adjacent to property which includes jurisdictional wetlands.

c. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and except for the warranties and covenants set forth in the Agency Deed, the Purchaser is purchasing the Property from the Agency in an “AS IS”, “WHERE IS” CONDITION, SUBJECT TO “ALL FAULTS”, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO BOTH LATENT AND PATENT DEFECTS,

5



AND THE EXISTENCE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIAL. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THE AGENCY DEED, THE PURCHASER HEREBY WAIVES ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE TITLE, CONDITION, AND USE OF THE PROPERTY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

6.3 Purchaser’s Release and Indemnity . The Purchaser hereby indemnifies, holds harmless, and agrees to defend the Covered Parties from and against all claims, damages, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable investigative and discovery costs), liabilities, and judgments on account of injury to persons, loss of life, or damage to property occurring on the Property and/or incurred as a result of or arising out of, with respect to events occurring during the period from the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, (i) the negligence or willful conduct of the Purchaser, and its agents, servants, and employees, (ii) the breach of any of the Purchaser’s obligations hereunder, and (iii) any necessary or appropriate investigation, repair, cleanup, remediation, or detoxification of the Property and other affected property and the preparation of any corrective action, closure, or other required plans or reports, to the full extent that such actions are alleged to be attributable, directly or indirectly, to the presence or use, generation, storage, release, threatened release, or disposal of Hazardous Material in violation of applicable environmental laws by the Purchaser or its agents and relate to or involve the Property, specifically excluding, however, all Claims incurred in a material way as a result of or arising out of (1) the gross negligence or willful conduct of the Agency or any of its agents, servants, and employees, or (2) the breach of the Agency’s obligations hereunder.

6.4 No Commissions . Each of the Agency and the Purchaser represents that it has not entered into any written contracts with any brokers or finders nor obligated themselves to pay any real estate commissions or finders’ fees on account of the execution of this Agreement or the close of the transaction contemplated hereby. Based on such representations, the Purchaser and the Agency hereby agree to indemnify and hold each other harmless from any claims, damages, expenses, liabilities, liens, or judgments (including costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees in defending the same) which arise on account of any claim made against the indemnifying party that real estate commissions or finders’ fees (including those identified above) are payable and have not been discharged in their entirety.

6.5 Confidentiality . The Agency is concerned about the confidentiality of any environmental inspections and resulting reports. The results of the Purchaser’s inspections relating to Hazardous Material shall be initially orally reported to the Purchaser and the Agency or their respective attorneys by the Purchaser’s consultants. Such reports shall be reduced to writing and marked “draft”. The Purchaser shall deliver to the Agency as soon as they are made available to the Purchaser, copies of all reports and analyses prepared or used in connection with the Purchaser’s environmental inspection of the Property. No information or contents of any environmental reports or analyses (verbal or written), nor the results of any inspection of the Property for Hazardous Material shall be disclosed by the Purchaser or its agents, consultants, or employees to any third party without the Agency’s prior written approval, unless and until the Purchaser is legally compelled to make such disclosure under applicable law, or until the Purchaser completes its purchase of the Property pursuant to this Agreement. In the event the Purchaser determines that it is legally compelled to disclose such information, it shall first notify the Agency of the circumstances requiring such disclosure and, to the extent the Purchaser believes it may do so without liability or damage to reputation, refrain from such disclosure for the maximum period of time allowed by law so that the Agency may procure a protective order or take other action to protect the confidentiality of the information. The Purchaser shall notify its agents, employees, and consultants of the need to comply with the terms of this Section. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, the Purchaser shall, upon receipt from the Agency of a customary non-reliance letter, immediately deliver to the Agency any and all documents, plans, and other items furnished to the Purchaser, the Purchaser’s consultants or the Agency or any reports or analyses obtained pursuant to this Section. All studies, data, reports, analyses, writings, and communications, including any environmental studies or reports, shall be generated by any consultant for the use of the Purchaser’s and the Agency’s attorneys and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be the work product of both the Purchaser’s and the Agency’s respective attorneys and shall constitute confidential attorney-client communications and each Party shall use its best efforts to ensure that such confidence and privilege are maintained.

6.6 Condemnation . If any material portion of the Property is condemned or access thereto is taken prior to the Closing Date, and the Purchaser reasonably concludes that the taking renders the Property unsuitable for the development of the Owner Improvements and the Purchaser so notifies the Agency in writing promptly after learning of such condemnation action, then this Agreement shall terminate. If this Agreement is not terminated pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Purchase Price shall not be affected, it being agreed that if the award is paid prior to the Closing Date, such amount shall be held in escrow and delivered to the Purchaser at the Closing, and if the award has not been paid before the Closing Date, then at the Closing Agency shall assign to the Purchaser all of its right, title, and interest with respect to such award.

6.7 Purchaser Event of Default Termination and Earnest Money . IN THE EVENT OF A PURCHASER EVENT OF DEFAULT OR IN THE EVENT THE CONDITIONS PRECEDENT DESCRIBED IN SECTIONS 3 AND 4 HEREIN HAVE BEEN SATISFIED OR WAIVED, AND THE PURCHASER FAILS TO CLOSE THE TRANSACTION AS PROVIDED FOR

6



HEREIN, IT IS AGREED THAT THE AGENCY MAY TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND RETAIN THE EARNEST MONEY AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND NOT AS A PENALTY, WHICH SUM REPRESENTS A REASONABLE ENDEAVOR BY THE PARTIES HERETO TO ESTIMATE A FAIR COMPENSATION FOR THE FORESEEABLE LOSSES THAT MIGHT RESULT FROM SUCH A BREACH, IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT THE AMOUNT OF ACTUAL DAMAGES WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT, IMPRACTICABLE, OR IMPOSSIBLE TO ASCERTAIN. SUCH RIGHT TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SHALL BE THE AGENCY’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AGAINST THE PURCHASER AS A RESULT OF A PURCHASER EVENT OF DEFAULT OR IN THE EVENT OF THE PURCHASER’S FAILURE TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTY. The Agency hereby waives any right to seek specific performance or to recover any other damages or sums from the Purchaser; provided, however, this Section applies only to a default of the Purchaser in its obligation to complete the acquisition of the Property and in no way limits the Purchaser’s potential liability for attorney’s fees or for the indemnity obligations set forth in this Agreement, or for the breach of other agreements except the agreement to close.

6.8 Agency Default . If the Agency defaults under this Agreement and does not cure such default within fifteen (15) days after written notice thereof from the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall, as the Purchaser’s sole alternative remedies, elect to either (a) accept from Agency a sum equal to the Earnest Money as liquidated damages, or (b) seek specific performance. In no event shall the Agency be liable to the Purchaser for any damages (other than the liquidated damages referred to in Subsection (a) of the foregoing sentence).

This Purchase Option Agreement (“ Agreement ”) is made and entered into as of the ___ day of ______________, 2014, by and between the REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF MIDVALE CITY, a public agency (“ Agency ”) and O.COM LAND LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“ Owner ”), both of whom are collectively referred to herein as the “ Parties ”, and individually as a “ Party .”
RECITALS:
A. Pursuant to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of September ___, 2014 (the “ Purchase Agreement ”), on the date hereof the Agency sold and the Owner purchased certain real property located at approximately 7350 South 700 West, Midvale, Utah (as more particularly described in Exhibit “A” attached hereto, the “ Property ”).

To provide assurances to Agency that Owner shall construct the Owner Improvements as provided in the Purchase Agreement, Agency and Owner have agreed to enter into this Agreement providing Agency with an exclusive option to repurchase the Property from Owner, subject to the terms, conditions and provisions set forth herein.

C. Owner has executed this Agreement as a material inducement and condition precedent to Agency to Close on the sale of the Property in accordance with the terms, conditions and provisions of the Purchase Agreement and, but for the execution of this Agreement, Agency would not have agreed to sell the Property to Owner.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:
1. Incorporation of Recitals; Definitions . The recitals set forth above are hereby incorporated into this Agreement and the matters therein are acknowledged by the Parties hereto to be true and correct in all material respects. The following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

As used herein, “ Termination Date ” shall mean the date that is two years after the date this Agreement is recorded.
As used herein, a “ Triggering Event ” shall mean the occurrence of either of the following events: (a) Owner provides written notice to the Agency that Owner desires to sell, ground lease or otherwise transfer the Property or (b) the failure of Owner to provide written evidence reasonably acceptable to the Agency that each of the Construction Commencement Conditions have been satisfied on or before the date that is forty five (45) days before the Termination Date.
As used herein, “ Construction Commencement Conditions ” shall mean each of the following conditions:
a)
Owner shall have delivered to the Contractor the “notice to proceed” under the Construction Contract, and

b)
Contractor shall have commenced construction of the Owner Improvements pursuant to the Construction Contract (as such terms are defined in the Purchase Agreement).

As used herein, “ Construction Loan Closing Conditions ” shall mean each of the following conditions:

22



a)
Owner shall have provided written evidence reasonably acceptable to the Agency that Owner has entered into a construction loan agreement or a similar document (the “Construction Loan Agreement”) with a financial institution to finance a portion of the costs of the construction of the Owner Improvements, and

b)
Owner shall have provided written evidence reasonably acceptable to the Agency that all conditions precedent to the closing of the Construction Loan Agreement (and the making of the first disbursement thereunder) shall have been satisfied, and that Owner’s lender is ready to close on the Construction Loan Agreement but for the evidence of the termination of this Agreement.

2. Purchase Option . Upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event, the Agency shall have an exclusive option to elect to repurchase the Property (the “ Option ”) from Owner on the terms and conditions specified herein by payment of the Repurchase Price specified in Section 5 hereof to Owner.

3. Exercise of Option . Agency may exercise the Option by giving written notice to Owner (“ Agency’s Option Notice ”) within ninety (90) days following the date on which any Triggering Event occurs (the “ Election Period ”). In the event Agency shall fail to deliver Agency’s Option Notice to Owner within the Election Period, Agency shall be deemed to have waived the Option and Agency’s rights under this Agreement shall terminate.

4. Termination of Option . The Option shall terminate on the earlier of (a) the date Owner satisfies the Construction Loan Closing Conditions or (b) the Termination Date, in which case the Option shall be deemed to have expired and this Agreement shall be terminated of record.

5. Repurchase Price . In the event Agency properly exercises the Option, the repurchase price for the Property shall be Two Million Nine Hundred Thirty Nine Thousand One Hundred Twenty Three and 88/100 Dollars ($2,939,123.88) (the “ Repurchase Price ”).

6. Closing Date . If Agency elects to exercise the Option, the closing of Agency’s repurchase of the Property (the “ Closing ”) shall occur on a date specified in writing by Agency to Owner, which date shall not be later than thirty (30) days following the date of Agency’s delivery of Agency’s Option Notice (the “ Closing Date ”).

7. Conveyance of the Demised Premises . Owner shall convey the Property by means of a special warranty deed, subject to all matters of record except for liens and monetary encumbrances created by Owner, the intent of the Parties being that the Agency shall again hold fee title to the Property, subject only to such exceptions as existed immediately prior to the date on which the Agency and Owner entered into the Purchase Agreement. Owner shall cause any financing against the Property to be released and satisfied out of the proceeds of the Repurchase Price. This Agreement shall not be subject to any deed of trust or other financial lien.

8. Title Insurance and Closing Costs . In the event Agency shall exercise its Option, Agency shall have the right to procure from a title company of its choice, an owner’s policy of title insurance that insures marketable fee title to the Property, subject only to matters of record as of the date the Owner purchased the Property (and excluding all liens and monetary encumbrances created by Owner), together with such endorsements as Agency may require. Owner shall pay for the cost of the standard coverage owner’s title insurance policy, and Agency shall pay for the additional cost related to the issuance of an extended coverage owner’s title insurance policy, as well as the cost of any endorsements thereto (except for endorsements related to mechanic’s liens as set forth below). Owner agrees to cooperate in causing the owner’s policy of title insurance to issue, and it shall remove or cause to be removed those mechanic’s liens or monetary encumbrances that it has created or permitted, or, in the case of mechanic’s liens, to cause (at Owner’s expense) an endorsement to be issued by the title company. Agency shall pay all recording fees. Owner shall pay all documentary or transfer taxes, if any. Agency and Owner shall equally share escrow fees. All unpaid ad valorem taxes shall be prorated between the Agency and Owner as of the date of Closing. No brokers or real estate agents shall be utilized in such transaction and no commissions will be due any broker or agent. Each party shall indemnify the other from any liability for any such fees or commissions incurred by it. At Closing, Owner shall also execute and deliver any affidavit or lien waiver reasonably requested by the Agency’s title insurer and a non-foreign affidavit.

9. Default . If Agency exercises its Option, and the sale and purchase of the Property is not timely consummated on account of a default by Owner under any of its obligations in this Agreement, Agency shall be entitled to pursue any and all available remedies at law or in equity, including the remedy of specific performance of Owner’s obligations hereunder. Additionally, Owner shall reimburse Agency for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of Option, or the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement.
