4.           Title.
 
(a)           Purchaser shall order from Stewart Title Guaranty Company or another nationally recognized title insurance company (the “Title Company”), at its sole cost and expense, a current ALTA title insurance commitment for the Property, including copies of all recorded exceptions to title referred to therein (collectively, the “Title Commitment”), showing marketable, fee simple title to the Realty to be vested in Seller and committing to insure such title to the Realty in Purchaser (or its assignee(s)) in the amount of the Purchase Price.  Purchaser shall have until 5 days prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period (the “Purchaser Objection Deadline”) to notify Seller in writing of any objection (the “Purchaser Objection Notice”) which Purchaser may have to any matters reported or shown in the Title Commitment.  If Purchaser delivers the Purchaser Objection Notice, then, Seller may deliver a response (the “Seller Response”) no later than 3 days after the date of the Purchaser Objection Notice (the “Response Deadline”).  If Seller fails to deliver the Seller Response on or before the Response Deadline, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure any of the matters set forth in the Purchaser Objection Notice.  If Purchaser waives its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8 and the Seller Response contains any commitment to cure any of the items set forth in Purchaser’s Objection Notice, Seller’s obligation to cause such cures as set forth in the Seller Response shall be an additional Seller covenant and also a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligations to close.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Title Commitment is re-issued or updated after the Purchaser Objection Deadline, Purchaser shall have the right to object (each, a “New Purchaser Objection”) to any additional matter disclosed or contained (each, a “New Title Document Matter”) in any such update of the Title Commitment (notwithstanding the passage of the Inspection Period).  If Seller is unable or unwilling to cure any such New Title Document Matter to the sole satisfaction of Purchaser (in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion) within the lesser of 5 days following receipt by Seller of a New Purchaser Objection or the Closing Date (defined below), Purchaser shall have the right either to (i) waive such New Title Document Matter and proceed to Closing without any adjustment in the Purchase Price, or (ii) terminate this Agreement (and pursue any remedies that Purchaser may have under this Agreement if the New Title Document Matter was caused by a breach of a covenant or representation of Seller under this Agreement).
 
(b)           The exceptions to title disclosed in the Title Commitment, other than (i) those title exceptions to which Purchaser has tendered an objection in the Purchaser Objection Notice or New Purchaser Objection which are not subsequently cured or waived, (ii) any delinquent taxes or assessments, (iii) the title exceptions set forth on Exhibit G, attached hereto and made a part hereof, and (iv) any standard printed exceptions, shall be the “Permitted Exceptions” hereunder.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall be obligated to remove at or prior to Closing any mortgage or other monetary liens created by, through or under Seller or a Seller-related party, and such liens shall not be Permitted Exceptions (whether or not Purchaser expressly objects to such liens).
 
(c)           Delivery of title in accordance with the foregoing provisions shall be evidenced by the willingness of the Title Company to issue to Purchaser, at Closing, a 2006 ALTA form of extended coverage owner’s policy of title insurance insuring good, marketable, insurable title to the Realty in Purchaser or its assignee in the amount of the Purchase Price, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions and with all endorsements agreed to by Purchaser in satisfaction of the items raised in the Purchaser Objection Notice (the “Title Policy”).

(d)           To the extent in Seller’s possession or control, the bill or bills issued for the last three (3) years for all utilities, together with copies of any 2014 Notice of Proposed Property Taxes (so-called TRIM Notices) for the Units received by Seller during the term of this Agreement, which shall be provided by Seller to Purchaser no later than five (5) days following receipt of same.
 
6.           Existing Leases.  No later than ten (10) days prior to the end of the Inspection Period, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a current rent roll of all the Leases (and all oral leases affecting the Property or any portion thereof, if any) (the “Rent Roll”), setting forth the name of the tenant, the space or suite affected, the rent, the term (including any options to renew),  the security deposit, pet deposits and other deposits, if any, and any special concessions, prepaid rent, options to purchase or rights of first refusal.  Seller further represents and warrants to Purchaser that as of the date hereof and as of the date of Closing:
 
(a)           No other parties have any rights of occupancy or possession of the Property or any portions thereof except pursuant to the Leases and as set forth on the Rent Roll, and no tenant of any portion of the Property has any option to purchase the Property or any portion thereof, nor any rights of first refusal with respect to same.
 
(b)           Seller has not received any prepaid rent under any of the Leases except the security deposits and prepaid rent as reflected in the Leases and as shown on the Rent Roll, and Seller will not accept advance payment of any rent under any of the Leases other than first and last months’ rent.
 
(c)           The copies of the Leases delivered to Purchaser pursuant to Section 5 are true, correct, and complete.  There are no modifications, understandings or agreements with respect to the Leases, except as set forth on the Rent Roll.  After the Effective Date hereof and at any time prior to the earlier of a termination of this Agreement or Closing, Seller will not modify or renew any of the Leases or enter into any new lease or occupancy agreement for any Unit or any other portion of the Property, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent may be granted or withheld in Purchaser’s sole discretion.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Purchaser withholds consent to any modification, renewal or new lease, Seller shall be entitled to a credit at Closing in the amount of the lost rent to Seller under such modification, renewal or new lease (as applicable) measured from the date such rent would have commenced through the date of Closing, but not to exceed the rent payable under such modification, renewal or new lease (as applicable) for one month.

(d)           Other than as set forth on the Rent Roll, all of the Leases are in good standing and without default on the part of Seller as of the date hereof, and shall remain without default on the part of Seller through the date of Closing.  Any uncured defaults by tenants under the Leases are reflected on the Rent Roll.  Seller shall be solely responsible for all rental commissions due and payable with respect to any Leases of the Units in effect prior to Closing, and shall pay all such rental commissions prior to Closing.
 
(e)           Other than as set forth on the Rent Roll, there are no rental commissions due with respect to any of the Leases nor for the renewal of same.
 
(f)           All of the Leases will be assignable at Closing by the Seller without the consent of any other party.
 
(g)           To the best of Seller’s knowledge, Seller has complied with all requirements of law regarding the Leases and the handling of tenant security and other deposits under the Leases, except with respect to the tenant security deposits relating to the Deposit Units (defined below) (without admitting any noncompliance with regard to security deposits held with respect to the Deposit Units).
 
The provisions of this Section 6 shall survive the Closing.
 
7.           Tenant Deposit Escrow.  At Closing, as contemplated by Section 14(e), Seller shall provide Purchaser a credit in the amount of all tenant security deposits held by Seller under the Leases, as reflected on the Rent Roll.  In addition, Seller shall place in escrow with Escrow Agent the sum of $31,130.00 (the “Tenant Deposit Escrow”), which represents (i) the aggregate amount of the security deposits for Unit Nos. 202S, 214S, 270S, 314S, 414S, 468S, 470S, 570S, 1026S, 1402S (collectively, the “Deposit Units”), plus (ii) an additional ten percent (10%) to cover any additional penalties, interest or other costs (including without limitation legal fees) that may be determined to be due to tenants or otherwise in connection with the return of any security deposits.  If (A) Purchaser notifies any tenant of the Deposit Units that Purchaser intends to impose a claim for damages against all or a portion of such tenant’s security deposit, (B) such tenant objects to Purchaser’s claim, (C) the basis for such tenant’s objections includes any claim that such security deposit was not held in accordance with applicable Florida law (or any similar claim), and (D) Purchaser returns all or a portion of such security deposit based on such tenant’s objections (collectively, the “Deposit Draw Conditions”), then Purchaser shall have the right to draw from the Tenant Deposit Escrow an amount equal to the sums returned by Purchaser to such tenant, together with any costs incurred in connection therewith.  Purchaser shall provide Seller and Escrow Agent with written notice that the Deposit Draw Conditions have been met with respect to any Deposit Unit, which notice shall specify the sums due to Purchaser hereunder as a result thereof, whereupon Escrow Agent shall release the sums so requested by Purchaser.  Although Purchaser will provide copies of each disbursement request to Seller concurrently with delivery thereof to Escrow Agent, the parties expressly acknowledge and agree that funds in the Tenant Deposit Escrow shall be released to Purchaser, without any requirement for Seller’s consent and Seller shall have no right to object to any disbursements by Escrow Agent under this Section; however, the foregoing shall not limit Seller’s rights under Section 13 of this Agreement if Seller believes that Purchaser requested and received escrowed funds from the Tenant Deposit Escrow in breach of this Section.  If any funds remain in the Tenant Deposit Escrow on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Escrow Agent shall disburse such remaining funds to Seller upon receipt of written request for such disbursement from Seller to Escrow Agent and Purchaser.  The terms and conditions of this Section 7 shall survive Closing.
