This AGREEMENT made this 10th day of July, 2020 (“Effective Date”) by and between the QUIGLEY CORPORATION D/B/A PROPHASE LABS, INC.(“Seller”) and LENAPE VALLEY FOUNDATION, or its nominee (“Purchaser”).

 

WITNESSETH:

 

In consideration of the covenants and provisions contained herein, and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

 

1. Agreement to Sell and Purchase. Seller agrees to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase from Seller, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, that certain commercial property located at 621 N. Shady Retreat Road, situate in Doylestown Township, County of Bucks, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, being further known and identified as Bucks County Tax Map Parcel No. 09-009-036-001, together with all improvements to the Property consisting of buildings, structures, furniture, fixtures, and other improvements, and further together with (i) any land lying in the bed of any street, road or alley, open or proposed, in front, abutting or adjoining the Property, (ii) any easement, privilege, license or right-of-way inuring to the benefit of the Property, and (iii) the appurtenances and hereditament belonging or otherwise pertaining to the Property (collectively the “Property”).

 

2. Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Property shall be Two Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,200,000.00) (“Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:

 

a. Fifty Thousand Dollar ($50,000.00) initial deposit (hereinafter “Deposit”) due at execution of an Agreement shall be delivered by Purchaser to Obermayer Rebmann Maxwell & Hippel LLP (“Escrow Agent”) at the time of Seller’s execution of this Agreement and deposited in an interest-bearing escrow account with all interest to be paid to Purchaser, except in the event of Purchaser’s default.

 

b. The Deposit, together with all accrued interest, shall be credited toward the Purchase Price at settlement and shall be refundable to Purchaser if: (i) Purchaser terminates this Agreement during the Inspection Period, (ii) Settlement does not occur other than as a result of Purchaser’s default under this Agreement, or (iii) Seller’s default under this Agreement.

 

c. The balance of the Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller at settlement by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

 

3. Settlement. Settlement shall take place on or before the expiration of a period of thirty (30) days from the expiration of the Inspection Period (as defined in paragraph 10). Settlement shall be made at such time and place as Seller and Purchaser shall mutually agree.

 

4. Condition of Title.

 

a. Title to the Property shall be free and clear of all defects, liens, encumbrances, covenants, restrictions and easements excepting only (i) real estate taxes for the current year which are not yet due and payable; and (ii) those stated exceptions not objected to or waived by Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this paragraph (subparagraphs (i) and (ii) hereof are referred to as the “Permitted Exceptions”); otherwise title to the Property shall be good and marketable and insurable as such at regular rates by a reputable title insurance company doing business in Pennsylvania selected by Purchaser. Upon the execution of this Agreement or as soon as reasonably feasible thereafter, Purchaser shall order a title insurance commitment, together with true and complete copies of all liens, encumbrances, covenants, restrictions and easements which are listed as exceptions thereon (said commitment and copies being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Title Commitment”). Within seven (7) days of receipt of the title commitment, Purchaser shall deliver a copy of the Title Commitment to Seller, together with written notice of those title exceptions, if any, which are unacceptable to Purchaser (“Purchaser’s Title Notice”). Seller shall have a period of twenty (20) days after receipt of the Title Commitment and Purchaser’s Title Notice to advise Purchaser, in writing, whether Seller will agree to cure or not to cure each of those additional exceptions (“Seller’s Notice”). Purchaser shall thereafter have a period of ten (10) days after delivery of Seller’s Notice to elect to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of such election to Seller and to receive the return of the Deposit, together with interest thereon, or to waive those exceptions which Seller does not agree to cure. Those title exceptions shown on the Title Commitment as to which Purchaser does not object, together with those exceptions to which Purchaser objects but Seller elects not to cure, shall be deemed, along with subparagraph (i) above, to be the “Permitted Exceptions” for the purposes of this Agreement.

 

     

 

 

b. If title to the Property cannot be conveyed to Purchaser at the time of settlement, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, or payment of any liens of encumbrances of record at Seller’s discretion, then Purchaser shall have the option of (i) taking such title as Seller can convey and/or waiving the unfulfilled condition, without abatement of the Purchase Price ; or (ii) if the title objections cannot be removed or terminated by payment of funds (or if Seller declines to do so) or by insurance over by the Purchaser’s title company, then by terminating Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement, and having all deposit monies paid to Seller returned to it.

  5  

 

 

13. Remedies.

 

a. Seller’s Remedies. If Purchaser violates or fails to perform any of the material terms and conditions of this Agreement or in the event Purchaser elects to terminate the Agreement for any reason prior to settlement, Seller’s sole remedy shall be to retain the Deposit, and any other sums paid by Purchaser to Seller, together with interest, if any, as liquidated damages for such breach, recognizing that actual damages are difficult or impossible to calculate and that such liquidated damages do not constitute a penalty, and thereupon this Agreement shall terminate, and neither party shall have any further liability to the other hereunder.

 

b. Purchaser Remedies. Should Seller violate or fail (in breach of its obligations hereunder) to fulfill or perform any of the terms, conditions or undertakings set forth in this Agreement applicable to it, at or prior to Closing, and if as a result thereof a Closing hereunder shall not occur, then in such case Purchaser’s sole remedy, at law or in equity is for Purchaser to have returned the Escrowed Funds, all interest earned thereon as liquidated damages (not as a penalty), and all out of pocket expenses paid by Purchaser that were incurred as a result of this Agreement. Purchaser hereby waives any right it might have had to specific performance.

 

c. Except for the failure to complete settlement, for which no notice of default shall be necessary and for which there shall be no right to cure, neither party shall be deemed in default hereunder unless the other party has given notice of an alleged violation or failure to fulfill or perform any material condition of this Agreement and the party receiving such notice has failed, within ten (10) days thereafter (or such additional time as may be reasonably necessary to complete such cure if the cure has been commenced within the aforesaid ten days and diligently sought thereafter, but in no event longer than an additional 20 days), to have cured such alleged default.

 

14. Rights in Event of Condemnation. In the event of the taking of all or any material part of the Property by eminent domain proceedings prior to Closing, or the commencement of any such proceedings prior to Closing, Purchaser shall have the right, at Purchaser’s discretion, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller, said notice to be delivered to Seller on or before the expiration of a period of thirty (30) days from Seller’s delivery to Purchaser of a copy of the Declaration of Taking filed by the Condemnor. In the event Purchaser elects to terminate the Agreement pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph, the Deposit, together with interest, shall be returned or repaid to Purchaser. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement, the Purchase Price for the Property shall be reduced by the total of any awards or other proceeds received by the Seller with respect to any condemnation and, at Settlement, Seller shall assign to Purchaser all remaining rights of Seller in and to any awards or other proceeds payable by reason of such taking. Seller agrees to notify Purchaser of eminent domain proceedings promptly after Seller learns of any such proceedings. Further, in the event of the taking of all or any material part of the Property by eminent domain proceedings or the commencement of such proceedings, the rights of the Seller and Purchaser are as set forth in this paragraph and such shall supersede where inconsistent with the provisions set forth hereinabove with respect to title in paragraph 4 and remedies in paragraph 13. “Material part of the Property” shall mean a portion of the Property with a value in excess of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), as determined by an appraiser approved by the Seller and the Purchaser (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned by either the Seller of the Purchaser).

 

15. Brokerage. Seller and Purchaser each represent and warrant to the other that they have dealt with no real estate broker or other intermediary in connection with this transaction except NAI Mertz. Each agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from any liability of any kind or nature whatsoever which may arise as a result of a breach of this warranty. It is expressly understood and agreed between the parties that the within-named agent, broker and any subagent, broker and their salespeople, employees, officers, and/or partners are the agents for Seller, not Purchaser and that this has been disclosed to Purchaser. A real estate recovery fund exists to reimburse any person who has obtained a final civil judgment against a Pennsylvania real estate licensee owing to fraud, misrepresentation, or deceit in a real estate transaction and who has been unable to collect the judgment after exhausting all legal and equitable remedies. For complete details about the Fund, call (717)783-3658.

a. The zoning classification of the Property is R2b Residential.

 

  6  

 

 

b. Access to a public road may require issuance of a Highway Occupancy Permit from the Department of Transportation. Purchaser shall arrange for all necessary Highway Occupancy Permits.

a. Seller shall maintain the Property in its present state of repair and in substantially the same condition as on the date hereof.

 

b. Seller shall not enter into any new lease or extend the terms of any existing lease, agreement of sale, option, or any other agreement or contract affecting the Property, nor shall Seller grant any easements or further encumber the Property, without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

 

c. Seller shall comply with all material covenants, conditions, restrictions, laws, statutes, rules, regulations and ordinances applicable to the Property.

 

d. Seller shall not use, manufacture, store, generate, handle or dispose of any Hazardous Substances, or use or permit the Property to be used for such purposes, or emit, release or discharge any such Hazardous Substances into the air, soil, surface water or groundwater comprising the Property, except such Hazardous Substances as are customarily used and stored on residential, commercial and/or agricultural properties in the ordinary course of business.

 

e. Seller shall not remove or damage any site improvements, standing trees, shrubbery, plants, landscaping or soil now in or on the Property during the term of this Agreement. It is specifically understood and agreed that the Seller may not remove or alter the building(s) and/or any fixtures on the Property at any time during the term of this Agreement. Seller shall not dispose of any trash, debris, building materials or organic material on the Property. In the event such disposal has occurred prior to the date hereof, Seller shall remove all such materials at Seller’s expense prior to the settlement.

 

17. Condition of Property at Closing. At Closing, Purchaser agrees to accept the Property at Closing in the “where is”, “as is” and “with all faults” condition as of the time of execution of this Agreement. Purchaser agrees and confirms that neither Seller, Agent, nor any agent, employee or representative of Seller, has made and does not make herein any representation or warranty as to the condition of all or any portion of the Property. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller hereby disclaims all warranties of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, warranties of habitability and fitness for particular purposes), whether expressed or implied including, without limitation warranties with respect to the Property. Except as is expressly set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser acknowledges that it is not relying upon any representation of any kind or nature made by Seller, or Seller’s Broker, or any of their respective direct or indirect members, partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees or agents with respect to the Property, and that, in fact, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, no such representations were made. To the extent required to be operative, the disclaimers and warranties contained herein are “conspicuous” disclaimers for purposes of any applicable law, rule, regulation or order.

 

18. Agreement to Cooperate. Seller and Purchaser agree to cooperate with each other and to take such further actions as may be requested by the other in order to facilitate the timely purchase and sale of the Property and Purchaser’s use of the Property following settlement. Seller agrees to execute such other documents reasonably requested by Purchaser, including any municipal applications for the Property; provided, however, that nothing shall obligate the Seller to any costs or other obligations regarding such applications, nor constitute obligations upon the Property in the event that settlement does not occur hereunder. Purchaser shall keep the Seller reasonably advised of all submissions made by the Purchaser to any governmental entity with respect to the Property.

 

  7

The time for Settlement and all other times referred to for the performance of any of the obligations of either party under this Agreement are agreed to be of the essence to this Agreement; and time, wherever mentioned, herein is not to be extended except by consent in writing signed by all parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the date established for Settlement, or any date specified for the giving or receipt of any notice, or for the satisfaction of any condition, the expiration of any period or the exercise of any right or option, shall occur on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday observed by banking institutions in the vicinity of the Property, the date so specified shall be extended to the next succeeding day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or such legal holiday.

23. FIRPTA. Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that a transferee of a U.S. real property interest must withhold tax if the transferor is a foreign person. To inform Purchaser that withholding of tax is not required upon Seller’s disposition of a U.S. real property interest, Seller hereby certifies the following:

 

a. The individuals who comprise Seller are not non-resident aliens for the purposes of U.S. income taxation.

 

b. The tax identification number of Seller is: ________________________;

 

c. Seller’s registered address is: _________________________________;

 

Seller understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by Purchaser and that any false statement which Seller has made could be punished by fine, imprisonment or both. Under penalties of perjury, Seller declares that he has examined this certification and it is true, correct and complete. Seller agrees to deliver to Purchaser, at settlement, a restatement of the certifications of Seller set forth in this paragraph, updated to the date of settlement.

 

22. Escrow Agent. The parties hereto have requested that certain monies be held in escrow by Escrow Agent, as set forth hereinabove, to be applied at settlement in accordance with this Agreement. Except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, all interest accrued shall be the property of Purchaser, absent default by Purchaser under the terms of this Agreement. It is further understood that the Escrow Agent is merely responsible for the safe keeping of the fund and shall not be required to determine any questions of fact or law. Should this Agreement, in accordance with the terms hereof, be terminated and the liabilities of the parties hereto ended, the Escrow Agent shall return the fund in accordance with the written instructions received from the parties hereto. In the event of a dispute, the Escrow Agent shall pay the fund into court upon being instructed to do so by either party. A party may commence an action against the Escrow Agent only if the Escrow Agent fails to pay the fund into court within ten (10) days of being so instructed by either party. The Escrow Agent shall not be entitled to a fee for services as Escrow Agent. If counsel for either party is the Escrow Agent, such counsel shall not be prohibited from providing representation for such party, if applicable, in regard to any dispute over the disposition of the deposit monies.

 

23. Notices. All notices to be sent out to be binding under this contract shall be sent by Certified Mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight delivery with evidence of delivery, using a national company or electronic correspondence, with receipt delivery, as follows:
