ARTICLE 4. - PURCHASE AND SALE PRICE

 

The total purchase and sale price for the Property is SEVEN HUNDRED NINETY MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($790,000,000.00), (the “Purchase Price”), subject to the prorations and adjustments provided in this Agreement.

 

4.1                            Deposit; Payment of Purchase Price.

 

(a)                               Deposit.  On or before two (2) Business Days after the Effective Date, Buyer shall deposit into escrow (the “Escrow”) with First American Title Insurance Company, National Commercial Services, located at 420 South Orange Avenue, Suite 250, Orlando, Florida 32801 (the “Escrow Holder” or “Title Company”) the amount of THIRTY-FIVE MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($35,000,000.00) in cash (the “Deposit”), which Escrow Holder is hereby instructed to invest in money market accounts approved by Buyer and Sellers.  Sellers and Buyer agree to execute such additional instructions not inconsistent with this Agreement as may be reasonably required by Escrow Holder.  All interest on the Deposit shall be added to, and constitute a part of, the Deposit for all purposes under this Agreement.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Deposit shall be applied to the payment of the Purchase Price.

 

(b)                              Balance of Purchase Price.  Buyer shall deposit the balance of the Purchase Price (plus or minus the net amount of any costs, adjustments and prorations provided for in Sections 4.2 and 5.5) into the Escrow prior to the Closing, in cash.  As used in this Agreement, the term “cash” means immediately available United States funds transferred by wire transfer.

 

(c)                               Treatment of Deposit.  The Deposit shall be paid to Sellers upon cancellation of the Escrow as a result of a Buyer Default.  The Deposit shall be returned to Buyer upon cancellation of the Escrow pursuant to Sections 6.1, 14.1, or 16.1.  In all other events, the Deposit shall be applied as specified in this Agreement.

 

(d)                             Acknowledgements Regarding Deposit.  All interest earned in said account of the Escrow Holder shall be reported by the Escrow Holder to the Internal

 

15



 

Revenue Service as income to Buyer (and Buyer agrees to execute a W-9 form and any other federal tax documents necessary in connection therewith).  The Escrow Holder shall not be liable for any loss occurring which arises from the fact that the amount of the Deposit may cause the aggregate amount of any depositor’s accounts contemplated under this Agreement to exceed $250,000 and that the excess amount is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.  If this Agreement shall be terminated by the mutual written agreement of Sellers and Buyer, or if the Escrow Holder shall be unable to determine at any time to whom the Deposit should be paid, or if a dispute shall develop between Sellers and Buyer concerning to whom the Deposit should be paid and delivered, then and in any such event, the Escrow Holder shall pay and deliver the Deposit in accordance with the joint written instructions of Sellers and Buyer.  In the event that such written instructions shall not be received by the Escrow Holder within ten (10) days after the Escrow Holder has served a written request for instructions upon Sellers and Buyer, then the Escrow Holder shall have the right to pay and deliver the Deposit into an appropriate court of proper jurisdiction in the State of New York, and interplead Sellers and Buyer in respect thereof, and thereupon the Escrow Holder shall be discharged of any obligations in connection with this Agreement.

 

4.2                            Price Adjustment.  The Purchase Price shall be adjusted by the following amounts:

 

(a)                               Seller Receivables.  With respect to Seller Receivables, Buyer shall pay Sellers at Closing an amount equal to the sum of all Seller Receivables that are outstanding 90 days or less after invoice based on one hundred percent (100%) of the invoiced amount, which Seller Receivables shall be transferred to Buyer at Closing.  Buyer shall not pay Sellers for any Seller Receivables that are outstanding more than 90 days, but such Seller Receivables shall be transferred to Buyer at Closing without additional consideration; and

 

(b)                              Prorations and Credits. The Purchase Price shall be further adjusted by the net amount of prorations and credits under Section 5.5.

(e)                               Buyer shall receive a credit for any security deposit held by any Seller pursuant to any Resident Agreements or Tenant Leases, to the extent such security deposit or any portion thereof has not been properly retained or applied by such Seller prior to the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of the applicable Resident Agreement or

 

22



 

Tenant Lease, and Buyer shall thereafter be responsible for the return of such deposit to the extent a credit has been received by Buyer in accordance with the applicable Resident Agreement or Tenant Lease.

Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, (i) income received by Sellers and accounts receivable that represent billings for goods and services to be rendered after the Proration Date shall be for the account of and credited to Buyer, (ii) an amount equal to all pre-paid expenses which relate to goods or services to be provided to the CLP Managed Properties in the ordinary course of business after the Proration Date shall be for the account of and credited to the applicable Seller, (iii) expenses which relate to goods and services provided to the CLP Managed Properties on or prior to the Proration Date, including, without limitation, any management fees or expenses, shall be for the account of the applicable Seller and if not paid prior to the Closing as Seller Payables pursuant to Section 12.3, Buyer shall receive a credit therefor at Closing, after which Buyer shall be responsible for paying such expenses for which it received a credit as aforesaid, provided that in the event no invoice has been issued prior to Closing for such goods and services, the applicable Seller shall have the benefit of Section 5.5(h), and (iv) refunds, to the extent relating to the period prior to and including the Proration Date, shall be for the account of and credited to the applicable Seller upon receipt of such refunds except to the extent a Tenant Lease, Assumed Management Agreement or Approved Contract requires such refunds be applied in a different manner.

 

(g)                              Buyer and Sellers shall prorate the rent under the Tenant Leases as of the Proration Date for the period during which the Closing Date occurs based on amounts due for such period.

 

(h)                              Buyer acknowledges that the balance of all reserve accounts described in the Tenant Leases and Management Agreements shall be transferred to Buyer at no additional cost to Buyer, subject to the interests of the Tenants and Managers as set forth in the Tenant Leases and Management Agreements (which transfer may be effectuated by way of Buyer receiving a credit against the Purchase Price in a cumulative amount equal to such accounts on the Settlement Statements except as otherwise required by Legal Requirements).  As consideration for the transfer of said reserve account balances, Buyer assumes at Closing responsibility for payment of all invoices issued from and after Closing relating to any goods delivered or services performed in connection with the Properties which are payable from the reserve accounts in accordance with the terms of the Tenant Leases and Management Agreements, without regard to when such services were performed or such goods were delivered; provided, however, with respect to the CLP Managed Properties, Buyer assumes such responsibility with respect to services performed or goods delivered prior to the Closing only to the extent there are sufficient amounts in such reserve accounts to pay such invoices and such invoiced amounts are

payable from such reserve accounts pursuant to the applicable terms of the Management Agreements (provided that all amounts contemplated by the applicable reserve budget in the applicable Tenant Lease or Management Agreement in effect as of the Closing Date to be deposited into such accounts prior to the date when any such expense is contemplated to be incurred shall be included when making such determination).

 

(i)                                  Sellers hereby represent, and Buyer acknowledges, that certain residents of the Stratford Property and the Dayton Place Property have paid entrance fees in connection with their residency at the Stratford Property or the Dayton Place Property, with such fees being more particularly described on Schedule 5.5(i).  Buyer agrees and does hereby assume all liabilities and obligations of Sellers, if any, associated with such entrance fees as Buyer’s sole responsibility, liability, cost and expense, and there shall be no credit to Buyer at Closing with respect to such entrance fees scheduled on Schedule 5.5(i) or with respect to any additional entrance fees consented to by Buyer after the Effective Date, which consent may be given or withheld in Buyer’s sole discretion.

 

(j)                                  To the extent assumed by Buyer pursuant to Section 13.5, at the Closing, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the aggregate of the then-outstanding principal balances due under the applicable Loan Documents and any interest and other charges accrued thereon which have not been paid prior to the Closing Date and which relate to any period of time prior to and including the Proration Date.  Sellers acknowledge that interest under the Loan Documents is paid in arrears.  At Closing, the applicable Seller shall receive a credit for the balance in any escrows maintained with respect to any Loan that is being transferred to Buyer; provided, however, in no event shall the applicable Seller receive a credit for any escrows which are reserve accounts for any Tenant Lease or Management Agreement, which are otherwise to be credited or paid to Buyer pursuant to Section 5.5(h).

 

(k)                              Prorations and credits shall be calculated on the basis of the best information available at Closing.  The amount of all prorations and credits shall be subject to adjustment in cash after Closing, as and when more complete and accurate information becomes available.  Sellers and Buyer agree to cooperate and use their best efforts to make such adjustments not later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date (which cooperation may include permitting reasonable inspections of the other parties’ books and records).

6.1                            Title Commitments and Surveys.  Sellers have provided through the Data Room commitments to issue an Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (standard coverage) for the Real Property in such form as is customary for transactions in the state in which the applicable Property is located, along with legible copies of all documents referenced in said title commitment (each a “Title Commitment”), such that Buyer shall obtain from Title Company at Closing an Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (standard coverage) insuring that fee simple title to the Real Property with respect to each Property is vested in Buyer, subject only to the matters

approved (or deemed approved) by Buyer pursuant to this Section 6.1, on such form as is customary for transactions in the state in which the applicable Property is located, together with any endorsements reasonably requested by Buyer and available in the state in which the applicable Property is located (the “Title Policy”).  Sellers have provided through the Data Room ALTA As-Built surveys for the Real Property with respect to each Property in such form as is customary for transactions in the state in which the applicable Property is located (each, a “Survey”), and Buyer has obtained, or has had the opportunity to obtain, an update to, or recertification of, each Survey.  Buyer may object to any matters which are revealed by any update to any Title Commitment or any Survey that were not disclosed in any version of such Title Commitment or Survey that were provided via the Data Room prior to the Effective Date or were not otherwise previously disclosed to or approved by Buyer in writing prior to the Effective Date, the effect of which would constitute a Material Adverse Effect, by giving Notice to Sellers within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the update disclosing such new matter.  Any matters to which Buyer objects pursuant to this Section 6.1 shall constitute “Unpermitted Exceptions”.  For purposes of clarification, neither matters disclosed on any Title Commitment or Survey provided via the Data Room prior to the Effective Date, nor any Loan Documents assumed by Buyer, shall be Unpermitted Exceptions.  The applicable Sellers shall notify Buyer in writing (with a copy of Sellers’ Notice to Escrow Holder) within five (5) Business Days of receiving the applicable Buyer’s Notice as to whether the applicable Sellers will cure any Unpermitted Exceptions.  The failure to so notify Buyer within such five (5) Business Days shall be deemed an election to not cure such Unpermitted Exceptions.  If Sellers elect to cure such Unpermitted Exceptions, Sellers shall do so at their own expense. Upon Buyer’s failure to timely object to any matters shown on a Title Commitment or a Survey or any updates thereto, such matters shall thereafter be deemed approved by Buyer.  Any matter which Sellers elect (or are deemed to have elected) not to cure shall also be deemed approved by Buyer unless Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Sellers and Escrow Holder within five (5) Business Days after Buyer receives written notice of Sellers’ election (or within five (5) Business Days after Sellers are deemed to have elected) not to cure such Unpermitted Exception.  If Sellers elect to cure any or all of the Unpermitted Exceptions, but are unable to complete the cure of such Unpermitted Exceptions before Closing, and the failure to cure such Unpermitted Exception constitutes a Material Adverse Effect, Buyer shall have the right, in its absolute discretion, to elect, upon written notice to Sellers, to either (i) terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Deposit or (ii) to take such title to the Property with no abatement of the Purchase Price.  Failure by Buyer to deliver the notice referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed an election under (ii) above.  Irrespective of whether or not Buyer has objected to such matters pursuant to this Section 6.1, and subject to Section 5.4(b)(iii) regarding payment of costs and fees for discharging the Buyer Discharged Debt, at or before the Closing, Sellers, at their sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for removing and discharging any monetary liens encumbering the Property (including, without limitation any liens securing the Payoff Loans) other than taxes and assessments that are not due and payable and any Loan Documents which Buyer assumes.  If Buyer does not assume one or more Loans and the applicable Loan Documents at Closing in accordance with the terms of Section 13.5, all principal and accrued interest or other charges thereunder shall be paid from the Purchase Price, and Buyer shall pay all other amounts related thereto as set forth in Section 5.4(b)(iii).

8.3                            Assumption of Management Agreements.  At any time prior to March 2, 2015, Buyer may, by Notice to Sellers, require that Sellers terminate any Management Agreement effective as of the Closing Date (any such Management Agreements being the “Terminated Management Agreements”).  If Buyer gives such Notice, Sellers shall cause such Terminated Management Agreements to be terminated effective as of the Closing Date in accordance with the terms of the applicable Terminated Management Agreements permitting termination upon the sale of a Property where applicable.  Upon such termination, Sellers shall promptly pay the applicable Manager(s) any fees and costs accrued to such Manager under such Terminated Management Agreement, and, at Closing, Buyer shall pay any separate termination fees owed to any applicable Manager(s) pursuant to Section 5.4(b).  At Closing, Buyer shall assume all Management Agreements other than the Terminated Management Agreements and any Management Agreements that are terminated as a result of a conversion of any Management Agreement relationship to a leasehold relationship (the “Assumed Management Agreements”) pursuant to the Assignments of Management Agreement.

BUYER’S INITIALS

 

 

ARTICLE 12. - SELLERS COVENANTS

 

12.1                    Insurance to Remain in Force Through Closing.  Sellers shall, or shall cause the applicable Tenant or Manager to, maintain continuously in force through the Closing Date policies of insurance substantially equivalent to those insurance policies required by the applicable Tenant Lease or Management Agreement (except to the extent that, for reasons beyond the reasonable ability of the Sellers to control, particular terms of coverage are no longer available at commercially reasonable rates, in which case Sellers shall notify the Buyer, promptly after becoming aware, of any such terms of coverage that are no longer available at commercially reasonable rates).

 

12.2                    Maintenance and Operation of Property.  Prior to the Closing, the Sellers, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Tenant or Manager with respect to each Property, as applicable, to, operate, maintain and repair such Property in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, and to maintain substantially the services and levels of Goods and Inventory at each Property as are required under the applicable Tenant Lease or Management Agreement.  The Tenants, Seller Tenants and Managers may enter into new Resident Agreements in the ordinary course of business in a manner consistent with past practices, which Resident Agreements, to the extent relating to CLP Managed Properties, shall constitute Resident Agreements to be assigned to Buyer hereunder, provided that such Resident Agreements are on substantially the same form as provided in the Data Room as of the Effective Date, and are at prevailing rates with no concessions, discounts or other incentives unless consistent with past practices or otherwise approved by Buyer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  The Tenants and Managers may enter into new contracts in the ordinary course of business in a manner consistent with past practices (which contracts, if related to the CLP Managed Properties, shall be Approved Contracts if Buyer’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) has been obtained); provided, however, that any new contract that has terms or provisions that require the applicable Seller’s approval pursuant to the terms of the Tenant Lease or Management Agreement shall also require the consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (and, where Sellers advise Buyer that a Material Contract is necessary to make urgent

 

37



 

repairs or to respond to exigent circumstances, Buyer agrees to respond to Sellers’ request for approval within two (2) days; in the absence of a contrary response to Sellers’ request for approval within such period, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the request).  Except with respect to the Resident Agreements and contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business in a manner consistent with past practice as mentioned above in this Section 12.2, no Seller shall enter into, modify, amend or terminate, or give or withhold any approval or consent or exercise or waive any right under, any of the Tenant Leases, Management Agreements, Approved Contracts, Ancillary Agreements or Loan Documents, or make or enter into any other agreement with respect to any Property which would encumber or be binding upon the Property from and after the Closing Date, without Buyer’s prior, written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that Buyer’s consent shall not be required with respect to consents or approvals given by any Seller in connection with (i) any action to protect person or property; and (ii) the approval of the initial budget under any Tenant Lease or Management Agreement relating to the 2015 calendar year (but approval will be required for any approval of any subsequent amendment thereto or variance therefrom).

 

12.3                    Payment of Bills.  Sellers of the CLP Managed Properties shall pay or cause to be paid all Seller Payables, including bills and invoices for labor, goods, materials, services, utility charges, employee salary and benefits and all other charges for goods or services furnished to the Properties prior to the Closing Date.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary recited herein, in no event shall Sellers delay the payment of any of Seller Payables that would interfere with or disrupt the operation of the Properties.  This Section 12.3 shall survive the Closing.

 

12.4                    Employees.

 

(i)                                  Sellers and Buyer acknowledge that by Sellers and Seller Tenants assigning the Tenant Leases and Assumed Management Agreements (respectively) to Buyer at Closing, no termination of employment of employees shall occur in connection with the Closing with respect to the applicable Properties, and that it is the understanding and expectation of the parties that the transaction contemplated by this Agreement with respect to such Properties does not create any liability under the WARN Act (129 U.S.C. § 2101 et seq.) or under any similar state laws.  With respect to the Terminated Management Agreements or any Management Agreements terminated as a result of a conversion of any Management Agreement relationship to a leasehold relationship (to the extent any such conversion results in the termination of any such employees), Buyer shall offer, or shall cause any successor operator to offer, employment to all or substantially all of the employees at the CLP Managed Properties corresponding to such Management Agreements in a manner that avoids any liability under the WARN Act or under any similar state laws.  To the extent any liability arises or is asserted to arise under the WARN Act or under any similar state laws in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement (such as in connection with causing the termination of a Tenant Lease, a Terminated Management Agreement, a Management Agreement terminated as a result of a conversion of such Management Agreement relationship to a leasehold relationship, or an Assumed Management Agreement following Closing), such liability shall be the responsibility of Buyer and Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sellers and each of their respective affiliates, directors and officers against such liability.

 

38



 

(ii)                              Sellers acknowledge that, with respect to each CLP Managed Property, as between Sellers on the one hand, and Buyer on the other, the applicable Seller shall pay and shall remain liable for the cost of all employee wages, salaries and benefits that accrued prior to the Closing Date pursuant to the applicable Management Agreement.

 

(iii)                          This Section 12.4 shall survive Closing.

 

12.5                    Violation of Representations.  From the Effective Date until Closing, Sellers shall not knowingly and willfully: take any action or omit to take any action, or permit the applicable Manager or Tenant to take any action or omit to take any action, which action or omission, to Sellers’ knowledge, would have the effect of causing any of the representations, warranties, or covenants of Sellers contained in this Agreement to be untrue in any material respect as of the date such action is taken or omitted except to the extent that such violation would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.  Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Sellers shall promptly notify Buyer in writing if any Seller acquires actual knowledge of a fact or condition that causes any of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement to become untrue or misleading to the extent such fact or condition results in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

12.6                    Governmental Inquiries.  Sellers hereby acknowledge and agree that, subject to the terms of the Site Access Agreement, from the Effective Date to the Closing Date or earlier termination of this Agreement, Buyer may contact any and all federal, state, and local governmental entities, agencies, and departments in order to inquire about and investigate any and all matters relating to the Properties; provided, however, that, except with respect to inquiries regarding the status of Buyer’s Licenses and Permits and other customary inquiries regarding the environmental and zoning compliance of each Property (based on items of public knowledge), Buyer shall first give Sellers notice of any proposed communication with any Governmental Authority, describing in reasonable detail the purpose thereof, and Sellers shall have the right to accompany Buyer or join Buyer in any such communications (including meetings, letters, telephone conferences, emails or other communications) with any Governmental Authority or any employee or official thereof.

 

12.7                    Grand Victorian Washington.  Sellers hereby represent that the Grand Victorian Washington Property is subject to the Existing Purchase Option.  CLP Washington IL Owner, LLC shall provide written notice to OSF Healthcare System of the proposed transaction contemplated by this Agreement with respect to the Grand Victorian Washington Property within ten (10) Business Days after the Effective Date in accordance with the Existing Purchase Option in order to commence the time period by when OSF Healthcare System has to exercise the Existing Purchase Option, and CLP Washington IL Owner, LLC shall otherwise comply with all terms of the Existing Purchase Option.  In the event that OSF Healthcare System exercises its right to purchase the Grand Victorian Washington Property pursuant to the Existing Purchase Option, the Grand Victorian Washington Property and all Personal Property associated therewith shall be deemed excluded from the Acquisition and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the Purchase Price allocated to the Grand Victorian Washington Property as set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto.  In such event, Sellers, at their sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with (a) releasing the Grand Victorian Washington Property as collateral for the applicable Loan, including the amount of any

 

39



 

required prepayment and/or premium, provided that no amendment to the Loan Documents requested by Lender in connection therewith shall impose further obligations on Buyer after Closing as a result of removing the Grand Victorian Washington Property as collateral for such Loan, and (b) amending the pooling agreement relating to the Management Agreement for the Grand Victorian Washington Property to remove references to the Grand Victorian Washington Property, provided that no such amendment shall impose further obligations on Buyer after Closing as a result of removing the Grand Victorian Washington Property from such pooling agreement.  In such event, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Sellers in obtaining such releases, terminations and amendments in coordination with Buyer obtaining the consent of the applicable Lender in accordance with Section 13.5 and with Buyer assuming the Management Agreements associated with such pooling agreement to the extent such Management Agreements are Assumed Management Agreements.  In the event that OSF Healthcare System declines to, or is deemed to have so declined by way of its failure to timely notify CLP Washington IL Owner, LLC of its election to, exercise its right to purchase the Grand Victorian Washington Property pursuant to the Existing Purchase Option, then the applicable Seller shall cause the Title Company to issue its Title Policy for the Grand Victorian Washington Property without exception for the Existing Purchase Option in connection with this transaction and the parties shall proceed to Closing without regard to the Existing Purchase Option and the Grand Victorian Washington Property and all Personal Property associated therewith shall remain part of the Acquisition.

 

12.8                    No Solicitations.  From the Effective Date until the Closing Date or, if earlier, the termination of this Agreement, Sellers agree that, except as expressly permitted hereunder or as requested by the Buyer, none of the Company, the other Sellers or their respective affiliates will, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage, facilitate, or induce the making, submission or announcement by any Person of any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to the acquisition by any Person (other than the Buyer and its affiliates) of any of the Properties or any equity interests in any Seller (other than the Company), (ii) enter into, participate in, maintain or continue any negotiations regarding, or deliver or make available to any Person any information with respect to, any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, the acquisition by any Person (other than the Buyer and its affiliates) of any of the Properties or any equity interests in any Sellers (other than the Company), (iii) agree to, accept or approve any transaction related to the acquisition by any Person (other than the Buyer and its affiliates) of any of the Properties or any equity interests in any Seller (other than the Company), or (iv) enter into any letter of intent or any other contract relating to the acquisition by any Person (other than the Buyer and its affiliates) of any of the Properties or any equity interests in any Seller (other than the Company).  As of the Effective Date, except as expressly permitted hereunder, Sellers agree to (x) immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than the Buyer and its affiliates) conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to the acquisition by any Person (other than the Buyer and its affiliates) of any of the Properties or any equity interests in any Seller (other than the Company), and (y) terminate any negotiations or discussions under any confidentiality, non-disclosure, document and information access and/or other agreements (other than any such agreement with the Buyer and/or its affiliates) with respect to the sale of any of the Properties or any equity interests in any Seller (other than the Company).  For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not (A) restrict the Company or its affiliates from soliciting, initiating,

 

40



 

encouraging, facilitating or inducing proposals with respect to, or conducting any negotiations or discussions with any Person making, or entering into any agreement relating to, any Company Acquisition Proposal with respect to the equity interests of the Company, or the Company’s or its affiliates’ assets or properties other than the Properties and the equity interests in any other Seller, or (B) require the Company to terminate any existing negotiations or discussions in connection with any Company Acquisition Proposal with respect to the equity interests of the Company, or the Company’s or its affiliates’ assets or properties other than the Properties and the equity interests in any other Seller, provided, in each instance, any agreement relating to a Company Acquisition Proposal shall require the Company to take all action required to permit the other Sellers to fulfill their obligations under this Agreement.

 

12.9                    Resident Trust Funds.  On the Closing Date, or such earlier date as may be required by applicable legal requirements, each Seller shall furnish to Buyer a full and accurate accounting of all personal funds, if any, of residents of the Properties that such Seller holds in a custodial capacity (“Resident Trust Funds”) and shall transfer such Resident Trust Funds to Buyer at Closing (the transfer of which may be effectuated by way of Buyer receiving a credit against the Purchase Price in a cumulative amount equal to funds on the Settlement Statements except as otherwise required by Legal Requirements), except to the extent prohibited by law from doing so, in which event, contemporaneously with the Closing, the applicable Sellers shall transfer all Resident Trust Funds, if any, to the resident for which such funds were being held, and the applicable Seller shall request that each resident receiving funds execute and deliver to the applicable Seller an acknowledgment of receipt of such funds and Buyer shall have no obligations or responsibilities with respect thereto.

 

12.10            Compliance with Legal Requirements and Agreements.  Prior to the Closing, each Seller shall comply (and shall cause each applicable Manager and Tenant to comply) in all material respects with all Legal Requirements, Licenses and Permits, Tenant Leases, Management Agreements, Contracts, Ancillary Agreements, Loan Documents, Buyer Discharged Debt, the matters approved (or deemed approved) by Buyer pursuant to Section 6.1 and any other material document or agreement affecting such Seller or the applicable Property and each Seller shall monitor such compliance thereunder consistent with such Seller’s past practices.

 

12.11            Cooperation.  Each Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Buyer and to take such actions as may be reasonably necessary in order to consummate, or cause to be consummated, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing, each Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in (a) obtaining all appropriate Licenses and Permits, (b) obtaining the consents of all Lenders with respect to the assumption of the Loan Documents by Buyer, which shall include, without limitation, executing a loan assumption agreement and such other documents reasonably required by each Lender for each Loan being assumed by Buyer to evidence the assumption of such Loan and applicable Loan Documents by Buyer and a release of the applicable Seller and all affiliates thereof (including any guarantors under any of the Loans) to the extent of, and in accordance with, such Lender’s customary release language, and (c) ensuring that all applicable motor vehicles are properly transferred to Buyer.  This Section 12.11 shall survive the Closing.

ARTICLE 15. - DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION; CONDEMNATION

 

15.1                    Casualty.  If, prior to the Closing, there is damage to or destruction of any part of a Property, Sellers shall provide Buyer prompt Notice thereof and the applicable Seller shall, at such Seller’s election, either (i) repair, restore or replace, or cause to be repaired, restored or replaced, such damaged Property in a reasonably good and workmanlike manner to the condition at least as good and useful as that in which it existed prior to such damage or destruction or (ii) (A) with respect to any CLP Managed Property only, provide Buyer with a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the lesser of: (y) the applicable insurance deductible (except to the extent that any Manager is responsible for any applicable insurance deductible under the applicable Management Agreement), and (z) the reasonable estimated costs for the repair or restoration of the Property, as applicable, required by such damage or destruction, (B) transfer and assign to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all proceeds from all casualty, business interruption, lost profits, and other applicable insurance policies maintained by any Seller, Manager or Tenant with respect to the Property, except those proceeds specifically payable in connection with and allocable to business interruption and lost profits and costs incurred by Seller for the period prior to the Closing to the extent assignable, and if such proceeds are not assignable, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in an amount equal to the amount of such proceeds actually received by Sellers, and (C) provide Buyer with a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the sum of the insurance proceeds that have already been received by any Seller prior to Closing or applied against any debt encumbering the Property to the extent such proceeds would have otherwise been transferred and assigned to Buyer under clause (B) above.  If, pursuant to the preceding sentence, the applicable Seller elects to, or causes Tenant or Manager to, repair, restore or replace the Property, but Seller, Tenant or Manager is unable to repair, restore or replace such damage or destruction prior to the Closing Date, then the provisions of clause (ii) in the preceding sentence shall apply, except to the extent any insurance proceeds received by Seller on account of such damage or destruction have been applied to the restoration of the Property.  In addition, with respect to the CLP Managed Properties, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to any known deficiency in the insurance proceeds with respect to the repair of such damage or destruction.  Buyer shall continue to be obligated to purchase the Properties

 

46



 

notwithstanding the damage or destruction without any adjustment to the Purchase Price (except as otherwise provided in this Section 15.1) in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided, however, if any such casualty results in any Tenant terminating its Tenant Lease prior to Closing, then, at Buyer’s option, this Agreement shall be terminated with respect to such Property only (except with respect to those provisions which are expressly contemplated hereby to survive the termination of this Agreement), the Property which is the subject of such casualty and all Personal Property associated therewith shall be deemed excluded from the Acquisition and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the Purchase Price allocated to such Property as set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto.  Further, in the event of a casualty with respect to any Property that is subject to a Loan that Buyer assumes, to the extent that the terms of the Loan Documents relating to the treatment of the proceeds from all casualty, business interruption, lost profits, and other applicable insurance policies maintained by Seller with respect to the Property is inconsistent with the terms of this Section 15.1, the terms of the Loan Documents relating to the treatment of the proceeds from all casualty, business interruption, lost profits, and other applicable insurance policies maintained by Seller with respect to the Property shall control; provided, however, if such proceeds are applied to the principal or accrued interest due under the Loan Documents prior to the Closing, Seller shall provide Buyer with a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in an amount equal to such proceeds so applied.

 

15.2                    Condemnation.  If all or any portion of a Property is the subject of a governmental taking, condemnation or other exercise of eminent domain, Sellers shall provide Buyer prompt Notice thereof and the Buyer shall be obligated to acquire such Property notwithstanding the effects of such action without adjustment to the Purchase Price except as provided below, and the applicable Seller shall transfer and assign all proceeds of the action to the Buyer and provide a credit against the Purchase Price to Buyer in an amount equal to the sum of the proceeds that have already been received by any Seller prior to Closing or applied against any debt encumbering the Property.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such governmental taking, condemnation or other exercise of eminent domain results in any Tenant terminating its Tenant Lease prior to Closing, then, at Buyer’s option, this Agreement shall be terminated with respect to such Property only (except with respect to those provisions which are expressly contemplated hereby to survive the termination of this Agreement), the Property which is the subject of such governmental taking, condemnation or other exercise of eminent domain and all Personal Property associated therewith shall be deemed excluded from the Acquisition and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the Purchase Price allocated to such Property as set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto.  Further, in the event of a governmental taking, condemnation or other exercise of eminent domain with respect to any Property that is subject to a Loan that Buyer assumes, to the extent that the terms of the Loan Documents relating to the treatment of the proceeds from the action is inconsistent with the terms of this Section 15.1, the terms of the Loan Documents relating to the treatment of the proceeds from the action shall control; provided, however, if such proceeds are applied to the principal or accrued interest due under the Loan Documents prior to the Closing, Seller shall provide Buyer with a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in an amount equal to such proceeds so applied.

 

ARTICLE 16. - DEFAULTS; CANCELLATION OF ESCROW

 

16.1                    Default Remedies of Buyer.

 

47



 

(a)                               If a Seller Default exists on or before the Closing Date, Buyer’s sole rights with respect to such Seller Default shall be to (1) waive such condition in writing (in which case this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Buyer shall have no further rights or remedies in connection with the facts or circumstances which caused such Seller Default), (2) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit and receive from Sellers reimbursement for Buyer’s actual and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses payable to third parties that were incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, the costs of negotiating this Agreement) provided that Sellers’ obligation to reimburse Buyer for such expenses shall not exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and NO/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00), or (3) pursue an action for specific performance, but only if Buyer properly files with a court of competent jurisdiction a complaint for specific performance within 30 days after the scheduled Closing Date.

 

(b)                              If Buyer wishes to pursue options (2) or (3) in Section 16.1(a), it shall provide Notice to Sellers of the Seller Default and Sellers shall have ten (10) Business Days to cure such Seller Default (and if such cure period will not expire prior to the date established as the Closing Date, the Closing Date shall automatically be extended to the Business Day immediately following the day on which the cure period expires).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers shall not be entitled to any notice or cure period with respect to a Seller Default arising from a breach of Sellers’ obligations under Section 5.2 or if Sellers otherwise fail to timely consummate the transactions contemplated hereby when obligated to do so.  If Sellers fail to cure such Seller Default within such applicable period, then Buyer shall have the rights set forth in Section 16.1(a).

 

(c)                               If Buyer cancels the Escrow under this Section 16.1, all costs of the Escrow shall be paid by Sellers.

 

16.2                    Default Remedies of Sellers.

 

(a)                               If a Buyer Default exists on or before the Closing Date, Sellers may, in their sole and absolute discretion, elect to either (1) waive such condition in writing (in which case this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Sellers shall have no further rights or remedies in connection with the facts or circumstances which caused such Buyer Default), or (2) provided the notice and cure procedures described in Section 16.2(b) have been followed, if applicable, to cancel the Escrow by Notice to Buyer and Escrow Holder, in which case the Escrow Holder shall deliver the Deposit to Sellers as liquidated damages (which shall be Sellers’ sole and exclusive remedy against Buyer under this Agreement, at law or in equity), at which time this Agreement shall be null and void and neither party shall have any rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for Surviving Obligations.  Sellers and Buyer acknowledge and agree that (i) the Deposit is a reasonable estimate of and bears a reasonable relationship to the damages that would be suffered and costs incurred by Sellers as a result of having withdrawn the Properties from sale and the failure of Closing to occur due to a Buyer Default; (ii) the actual damages suffered and costs incurred by Sellers as a result of such withdrawal and failure to close due to a Buyer Default would be extremely difficult and impractical to

 

48



 

determine; (iii) Buyer seeks to limit its liability under this Agreement to the amount of the Deposit in the event this Agreement is terminated and the transaction contemplated by this Agreement does not close due to a Buyer Default; and (iv) the Deposit shall be and constitutes valid liquidated damages.

 

(b)                              If Sellers wish to pursue option (2) in Section 16.2(a), Sellers shall give the Buyer Notice thereof and Buyer shall have ten (10) Business Days to cure such Buyer Default.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be entitled to any notice or cure period with respect to a Buyer Default arising from a breach of Buyer’s obligations under Section 5.3 or if Buyer otherwise fails to timely consummate the transactions contemplated hereby when obligated to do so.  If any cure period contemplated by this Section 16.2(b) will not expire prior to the date established as the Closing Date, the Closing Date shall automatically be extended to the Business Day immediately following the day on which the cure period expires but in no event shall such cure period or the Closing Date be extended beyond June 30, 2015.  If Buyer fails to cure such Buyer Default within such applicable period, then Sellers shall have the rights set forth in Section 16.2(a).

 

(c)                               If Sellers cancel the Escrow under this Section 16.2, all costs of the Escrow shall be paid by Buyer.

 

16.3                    Return of Documents.  Upon any cancellation of the Escrow, Escrow Holder shall return all instruments and documents deposited with Escrow Holder to the parties who deposited the same.

Any correctly addressed Notice that is refused, unclaimed or undelivered because of an act or omission of the party to be notified shall be considered to be effective as of the first day that the Notice was refused, unclaimed or considered undeliverable by the postal authorities, messenger or overnight delivery service.  The parties hereto shall have the right from time to time, and at any time, to change their respective addresses and each shall have the right to specify as its address any other address within the United States of America, by giving to the other party at least ten (10) days prior Notice thereof, in the manner prescribed herein; provided, however, that to be effective, any such change of address must be actually received (as evidenced by a return receipt).  Telephone numbers, if listed, are listed for convenience purposes only and not for the purposes of giving Notice pursuant to this Agreement.  Any Notice given to any Seller shall be deemed Notice given to all other Sellers.  Any Notice that is required or permitted to be given by either party to the other under this Agreement may be given by such party or its legal counsel, who are hereby authorized to do so on the party’s behalf.

 

17.3                    Confidentiality.  Each of the parties agrees to keep the terms and provisions of this Agreement as strictly confidential and that it shall not disclose such information or the terms and provisions hereof to any Person other than to their respective counsel, shareholders, directors, lenders or prospective lenders, underwriters or prospective underwriters, advisors, consultants or employees who have a need to know of such information and have been instructed to maintain the confidentiality thereof, or as otherwise required by Legal Requirements or already in the public domain or public disclosure obligations necessitated by requirements of the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  Sellers and Buyer acknowledge and agree that the terms and provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on the parties and shall survive the Closing or other termination of this Agreement. No party shall have the right to make a public announcement or disclosure regarding the transactions described in this Agreement which includes the name of any of the other parties without the prior approval of such other parties.  Sellers and Buyer shall approve the timing, form and substance of any such public announcement or disclosure, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except if a party is required to make a public announcement or disclosure under Legal Requirements, in which case no such approval by the other party shall be required (but the other party shall be given a copy of such announcement or disclosure and the opportunity to comment on it as soon as reasonably practicable before such announcement or disclosure is required to be made).  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement to the contrary, Buyer may make, without Sellers’ approval but upon giving Sellers notice of, and, to

 

51



 

the extent reasonably practicable, an opportunity to comment on, the same, any disclosure as to the transactions contemplated hereby (i) to the extent Buyer determines, based on the advice of legal counsel, such disclosure is required by Legal Requirements or in connection with any filing by Buyer with the SEC or any stock exchange rules applicable to Buyer; or (ii) to the extent Buyer determines, based on the advice of legal counsel, such disclosure is required in any prospectus, report or other filing made by Buyer with the SEC or any stock exchange, or (iii) such disclosure is consistent with Buyer’s practices relating to earnings releases and investor relations.  Further, each party, without the approval of the other party, is expressly permitted, from and after the Effective Date, to make disclosures of the transactions contemplated hereby in connection with (a) applying for and obtaining the permits, certificates, licenses and approvals necessary to carry on the business of the Sellers as is now conducted, including, without limitation, the permits, certificates, licenses and approvals needed to operate the Properties as now operated, and (b) obtaining the consents necessary from third parties to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Buyer is expressly permitted, from and after the date of this Agreement, without Sellers’ approval but upon giving Sellers notice of, and, to the extent reasonably practicable, an opportunity to comment on, the same, to make disclosures of the transactions contemplated hereby to prospective underwriters and placement agents.  In the event of any conflict between the terms and provisions of this Agreement and those of the Confidentiality Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control.

17.5                    Entire Agreement.  Except for the Site Access Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement, this Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties and incorporates all prior agreements and understandings relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and no previous agreement or understanding, verbal or written, of the parties or any of their agents shall be binding or enforceable, unless specifically incorporated in this Agreement.

 

17.6                    No Presumption Regarding Drafter.  Sellers and Buyer acknowledge and agree that the terms and provisions of this Agreement have been negotiated and discussed between Sellers and Buyer, and that this Agreement reflects their mutual agreement regarding the subject matter of this Agreement.  Because of the nature of such negotiations and discussions, it would not be appropriate to deem any party to be the drafter of this Agreement, and therefore no presumption for or against the drafter shall be applicable in interpreting or enforcing this Agreement.

 

17.7                    Time of the Essence.  Time is of the essence of this Agreement (including as to the Closing Date).  The parties understand that the time for performance of each obligation under this Agreement has been the subject of negotiation by the parties.

 

52



 

17.8                    Invalidity of any Provision.  If any agreement, condition, obligation, covenant, warranty or other provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be unenforceable, invalid, or void, such determination shall not affect, impair, invalidate or render unenforceable any other agreement, condition, obligation, covenant, warranty, or other provision of this Agreement.

 

17.9                    Counterparts.  This Agreement and any amendment may be executed in counterparts, and upon all counterparts being so executed, each counterpart shall be considered as an original and all counterparts shall be considered as one agreement.

 

17.10            Brokers’ Commissions.  Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sellers from and against any and all Claims, arising out of or in connection with any claim or demand by a person or entity for any broker’s, finder’s, or other commission or fee in connection with this Agreement arising out of any act or omission of Buyer.  Sellers shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer from and against any and all Claims in connection with any claim or demand by a person or entity for any broker’s, finder’s, or other commission or fee in connection with this Agreement arising out of any act or omission of Sellers.

 

17.11            Attorneys’ Fees.  In the event of a dispute in connection with this Agreement involving the non-performance by a party of its obligations hereunder, the prevailing party shall, subject to the limitations set forth herein, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9.4, be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with such dispute, whether or not litigation is commenced, in addition to all other relief to which the party is entitled.  If the successful party recovers judgment in any legal action or proceeding, the attorneys’ fees and all other expenses of litigation shall be included in and made part of any such judgment, subject to the limitations set forth herein, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 9.4.

 

17.12            Applicable Law.  The laws of the State of New York (not including the choice of law provisions thereof) shall be applied in interpreting and enforcing this Agreement.

 

17.13            Assignment by Buyer; Successors and Assigns.  Buyer shall have the right to assign Buyer’s rights hereunder to acquire the assets to be conveyed under this Agreement in whole or in part to one or more Subsidiaries of Buyer, provided that: (i) Buyer shall give written notice to Sellers of such assignment at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing; and (ii) Buyer shall not be released from liability under this Agreement.  Except as provided in this Section 17.13, Buyer shall not have the right to assign this Agreement at or before the Closing without the prior written consent of Sellers, and any such assignment or attempted assignment without such consent shall be void.  Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

 

17.14            No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is for the benefit of Sellers and Buyer only, and is not for the benefit of any other person or entity.  Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the parties hereto agree that there are no third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.

 

17.15            Jury Trial Waiver.  BUYER AND SELLERS EACH KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN

 

53



 

RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPERTY OR THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY.  THIS WAIVER CONSTITUTES A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR EACH PARTY TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

 

17.16            Jurisdiction and Venue.  The venue for any legal or equitable action brought under this Agreement shall be New York, New York.  The Parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of New York in connection with any claims or controversy arising out of this Agreement and that venue for such actions shall be in New York, New York.  Sellers and Buyer hereby submit to jurisdiction and consent to venue in such courts, and waive any defense based on forum non conveniens, provided that any Party may seek injunctive relief or specific performance, if applicable, with respect to any of the Properties in the courts of the State in which such Properties are situated and may incorporate a claim against Seller of such Property with respect to any claim for injunctive relief or specific performance.

 

17.17            Tax Disclosures.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in accordance with Section 1.6011-4(b)(3)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations, Buyer and Sellers (and each employee, representative, or other agent of Buyer and Sellers) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to Buyer or Sellers relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.  However, any information relating to tax treatment or tax structure shall remain subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent, but only to the extent, reasonably necessary to enable Buyer and Sellers to comply with applicable securities laws.  For purposes hereof, “tax structure” means any fact that may be relevant to understanding the federal income tax treatment of the transaction.

 

17.18            Independent Entity; Joint and Several.  Buyer recognizes and acknowledges that each Seller is an independent entity, chartered under the laws of the State of Maryland or the State of Delaware, to whom Buyer will solely look and who is solely responsible for the obligations and liabilities of each Seller recited herein, arising hereunder, or in any manner related to the transactions contemplated hereby.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Seller shall be jointly and severally liable with each other Seller for all of the obligations and liabilities of each Seller under this Agreement.  Buyer further recognizes and acknowledges that no other entity or entities, including (a) any Seller’s officers, directors, and members, (b) any individual, or (c) any entity affiliated with any Seller’s business which may form, organize, provide services to, provide loans and funds to, negotiate for, provide personnel to, make representations on behalf of, and from time-to-time take actions on behalf of or for the benefit of such Seller’s business, by direct dealings with any Seller or those acting for it, is in any manner liable or responsible for the obligations and liabilities of such Seller, whether recited herein, arising hereunder, or in any manner related to the transactions contemplated hereby.
