Therefore, Seller’s Disclosure Materials are provided without any representation or warranty as to their content, accuracies, or completeness and any reliance by the Purchaser shall be at the Purchaser’s sole risk and the Purchaser agrees not to assert any claims against Seller or the preparer of such documentation arising out of any information contained in such documentation or omitted from such documentation which is the subject of such documentation, except for claims arising from or related to fraud committed by Seller or a willful and intentional misrepresentation made by Seller.

Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing no later than five (5) days after Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s notice setting forth the existence of any Title Defects and indicate to Purchaser that Seller either (i) intends to cure the Title Defects within the applicable cure period, or (ii) intends not to cure some or all of such exceptions, identifying which of the Title Defects Seller intends to cure and/or not cure (Seller being under no obligation to cure Title Defects other than the Monetary Objections). If Seller does not timely provide such notification, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected (ii).
(b) If Seller has elected in writing to cure any Title Defects, Seller shall have thirty (30) days, or such longer period as Purchaser may grant in its sole and absolute discretion, following receipt of written notice of the existence of Title Defects in which to undertake a good faith, diligent and continuous commercially reasonable effort and, in fact, cure or eliminate the Title Defects which Seller has elected to cure to the satisfaction of Purchaser and the Title Company in such manner as to permit the Title Company to either endorse the Title Commitment or issue a replacement commitment to delete the Title Defects therefrom. Seller’s failure to cure
- 10 -
any such Title Defect shall not constitute a default by Seller as long as Seller undertakes a good faith, diligent and continuous commercially reasonable effort to cure or eliminate same.
(c) Within five (5) days prior to Closing, Seller shall cause the Title Agent to deliver to Purchaser an update to the Title Commitment (the “Updated Title Commitment”). Any matters disclosed in the Updated Title Commitment which were not exceptions in the Title Commitment shall automatically be deemed Title Defects which Seller shall be obligated to cure unless such matters were placed of record with Purchaser’s knowledge or consent, with Purchaser’s joinder and consent. The cure of any such new Title Defects shall be effected within such time periods as were provided in connection with curing Title Defects under the initial Title Commitment. If Seller shall in fact cure or eliminate the new Title Defects, the Closing shall take place on the date specified in this Agreement. If Seller does not cure or eliminate the new Title Defects, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement or proceed to Closing as its sole remedy, as provided in and subject to the provisions of Section 3.4(d) below.
(d) If Seller is unable to cure or eliminate any Title Defects (including any new Title Defects revealed by the Updated Title Commitment to be provided to Purchaser as set forth in Section 3.4(c) above) within the time allowed, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) days following the expiration of the curative period by giving written notice of termination to Seller, or, alternatively, Purchaser may elect to close its purchase of the Property, accepting the conveyance of the Property subject to such Title Defect(s), in which event the Closing shall take place on the date specified in this Agreement, subject to any delays provided for above. If, by giving written notice to Seller within the time allowed, Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement because of the existence of uncured Title Defects, the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser and upon such return the obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall be terminated, except for those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement. The foregoing right of Purchaser to terminate this Agreement shall be Purchaser’s sole remedy; provided however, upon the failure to cure a Title Defect which Seller is obligated to cure shall not be deemed to limit the Purchaser’s rights and remedies to which Purchaser might otherwise be entitled for the intentional and willful breach by Seller of any of its covenants, duties, obligations, representations or warranties hereunder.
(e) Purchaser may, at Purchaser’s expense, within the Inspection Period, obtain a boundary survey of the Land (“Survey”). Such Survey, if any, shall be prepared by a land surveyor duly licensed and registered as such in the State of Illinois, shall be certified by such surveyor to Purchaser, Seller, the Title Agent and the Title Company, shall set forth the legal description of the Land and shall otherwise be in a form satisfactory to the Title Company to eliminate the standard survey exceptions from the Title Policy to be issued at Closing. Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period specifying any matters shown on the Survey which adversely affect the title to the Land or constitute a zoning violation and the same shall thereupon the deemed to be Title Defects hereunder and Seller shall elect to cure or not cure the same as provided in Section 3.4(a) of this Agreement and if Seller elects to undertake the cure thereof it shall do so within the time and in the manner provided in Section 3.4(b) of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 7.
CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION
7.1 Casualty. Risk of loss up to the Closing shall be borne by Seller. In the event of any immaterial damage or destruction to the Property or any portion thereof, Seller and Purchaser shall proceed to close under this Agreement, and Purchaser will receive (and Seller will assign to Purchaser at the Closing Seller’s rights under insurance policies to receive) any insurance proceeds due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction and assume responsibility for such repair, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible, uninsured or coinsured amount under said insurance policies. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “immaterial damage or destruction” shall mean such instances of damage or destruction: (i) which can be repaired or restored at a cost of Ten Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) or less; (ii) which can be restored and repaired within sixty (60) days from the date of such damage or destruction; and (iii) in which Seller’s rights under its insurance policy covering the Property are assignable to Purchaser and will continue pending restoration and repair of the damage or destruction.
In the event of any material damage or destruction to the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by notice to Seller given within the earlier of twenty (20) days after Purchaser is notified by Seller of such damage or destruction, or the Closing Date, but in no event less than ten (10) days after Purchaser is notified by Seller of such damage or destruction (and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give Purchaser the full 10-day period to make such election): (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Earnest Money to Purchaser, or (ii) proceed to close under this Agreement, receive (and Seller will assign to Purchaser at the Closing Seller’s rights under insurance policies to receive) any insurance proceeds due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction (less any amounts reasonably expended for restoration or collection of proceeds) and assume responsibility for such repair, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible amount under said insurance policies. If Purchaser fails to deliver to Seller notice of its election within the period set forth above, Purchaser will conclusively be deemed to have elected to proceed with the Closing as provided in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. If Purchaser elects clause (ii) above, Seller will cooperate with Purchaser after the Closing to assist Purchaser in obtaining the insurance proceeds from Seller’s insurers. For purposes of this Agreement “material damage or destruction” shall mean all instances of damage or destruction that are not immaterial, as defined herein.
7.2 Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of the Property 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 written 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 Purchaser
- 23 -
immediate written notice of such threatened or contemplated condemnation or of such taking or sale, and Purchaser may by written notice to Seller given within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice from Seller, elect to terminate this Agreement. If Purchaser chooses to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 7.2, then the Earnest Money shall be returned immediately to Purchaser by Escrow Agent and the rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities of the parties hereunder shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect, except for those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate 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 Purchaser all of the right, title, and interest of Seller in and to any awards applicable to the Property 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 Purchaser shall not have elected to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 7.2 (and either the 30-day period within which Purchaser has a right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.2 has expired or Purchaser has agreed to waive its right to terminate this Agreement), and provided that the Inspection Period has expired and Purchaser has delivered the Earnest Money to Escrow Agent, (i) Purchaser shall thereafter be permitted to participate in the proceedings as if Purchaser were a party to the action, and (ii) Seller shall not settle or agree to any award or payment pursuant to condemnation, eminent domain, or sale in lieu thereof without obtaining Purchaser’s prior written consent thereto in each case.
ARTICLE 8.
DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
8.1 Purchaser’s Default. If Purchaser fails to consummate this transaction for any reason other than Seller’s default, failure of a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close or the exercise by Purchaser of an express right of termination granted herein, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole remedy hereunder, to terminate this Agreement and to receive and retain the Earnest Money as full liquidated damages for such default of Purchaser, the parties hereto acknowledging that it is impossible to estimate more precisely the damages which might be suffered by Seller upon Purchaser’s default, and that said Earnest Money is a reasonable estimate of Seller’s probable loss in the event of default by Purchaser. Seller’s retention of said Earnest Money is intended not as a penalty, but as full liquidated damages. The right to retain the Earnest Money as full liquidated damages is Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of default hereunder by Purchaser, and Seller hereby waives and releases any right to (and hereby covenants that it shall not) sue the Purchaser: (a) for specific performance of this Agreement, or (b) to recover actual damages in excess of the Earnest Money. Nothing contained in this Section 8.1 to the contrary shall release or absolve Purchaser from its obligation to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless under those provisions of this Agreement which by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement.
8.2 Seller’s Default. If Seller fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement for any reason other than Purchaser’s default or the permitted termination of this Agreement by Purchaser as expressly provided herein, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its remedy, either (a) to terminate this Agreement and receive the return of the Earnest Money from Escrow
- 24 -
Agent, together with Purchaser’s actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred with respect to this transaction which shall be reimbursed by Seller, in an amount not to exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) to Purchaser within ten (10) business days after Purchaser’s delivery of commercially reasonable documentation supporting such costs and expenses (in such event, the right to retain the Earnest Money plus costs shall be full liquidated damages and, except as set forth herein, shall be Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of a default hereunder by Seller, and Purchaser hereby waives and releases any right to sue Seller for damages), or (b) to enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligation to execute and deliver the documents required to convey the Property to Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement. If specific performance is not available to Purchaser as a result of Seller having sold the Property or any portion thereof to another party, or as a result of a willful and intentional act or omission of Seller, then, in addition to Purchaser’s termination right and reimbursement referenced, in an amount not to exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00), Purchaser shall have all remedies available at law or in equity.
8.3 Fraud/Misrepresentation. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 8.1 or 8.2 above, either party may pursue the other party for any legal or equitable remedy which may be available as a result of fraud committed by the other party or a willful and intentional misrepresentation made by the other party.
ARTICLE 9.
ASSIGNMENT
9.1 Assignment. Subject to the next following sentence, this Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable by any party without the written consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, this Agreement and Purchaser’s rights hereunder may be transferred and assigned to any entity that is an Affiliate of Purchaser; provided, however, that no such assignment shall release Purchaser from any of its liabilities and/or obligations under this Agreement Any assignee or transferee under any such assignment or transfer by Purchaser as to which Seller’s written consent has been given or as to which Seller’s consent is not required hereunder shall expressly assume all of Purchaser’s duties, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement by written instrument delivered to Seller as a condition to the effectiveness of such assignment or transfer. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to create any rights in or to be enforceable in any part by any other persons.
ARTICLE 10.

Seller and Purchaser warrant and represent to each other that Seller and Purchaser have not entered into any agreement or arrangement and have not received services from any other broker, realtor, or agent or any employees or independent contractors of any other broker, realtor or agent, and that, there are and will be no broker’s, realtor’s or agent’s
- 25 -
commissions or fees payable in connection with this Agreement or the purchase and sale of the Property by reason of their respective dealings, negotiations or communications other than amounts due Generation Income Properties, L.P., and Stan Johnson Co. as provided herein.

This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties hereto, and no representations, inducements, promises, or agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties not embodied herein shall be of any force or effect. Any amendment to this Agreement shall not be binding upon Seller or Purchaser unless such amendment is in writing and executed by both Seller and Purchaser.
