of Buyer or Buyer’s agents, in connection with the inspections, including but not limited to Claims arising out of or in connection with personal injury or death of persons, loss, destruction or damage to property, or liens or claims of lien filed against the Property, in connection with the inspections; provided, however, such indemnity shall not apply to any Claims arising from the negligence or willful misconduct of Seller, its employees, tenants, agents or contractors or from the mere discovery of pre-existing conditions on the Property during any investigations or inspections except to the extent such conditions are exacerbated by Buyer or its agents.  This Section 9(c) shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

(d)Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Buyer may for any reason or no reason at all, and in its sole and absolute discretion, terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice of such termination to Seller and Escrow Agent prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, and the parties shall have no further obligation hereunder (except those obligations which are specifically provided to survive such termination as provided in this Agreement).

(e)The determination of the definitive list of the Properties to be included in the Portfolio shall be made as follows:

(i)Prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period (the “Definitive Notice Deadline”), the Buyer shall send to Seller a notice of each Property, if any, that Buyer desires to be excluded from the Portfolio (such remaining Properties, the “Definitive Property List”).  Buyer shall be entitled to exclude no more than 5% of the Properties as a result of title inspection or property condition diligence results.

In the event that Seller and Buyer do not enter into the Reduction Amendment prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Buyer’s sole right and remedy will be to terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period pursuant to Section 9(b) above; if Buyer does not so terminate this Agreement, then it will be presumptively concluded that Buyer has elected to include in the Portfolio all of the Properties listed in Exhibit A with no reduction in the Portfolio Purchase Price.

(f)Seller shall deliver to Buyer, within ten (10) Business Days of the Effective Date: (a) true and accurate copies of all Leases, (b) copies of any tenant applications, screening or approval criteria data or reports in Seller’s possession relative to each Property that was acquired without a pre-existing tenant in place, (c) utility information for each provider of utilities to each Property in the Portfolio to the extent paid or caused to be paid by the Seller, and (d) the documents listed on Schedule 2, attached hereto.

19.SELLER DISCLOSURES/LIMITATIONS AND RELEASE OF SELLER.  Buyer acknowledges that Seller does not have any knowledge regarding the condition of each Property, except (i) as set forth in the documents included in the due diligence vault [and on Property specific page found through www.roofstock.com] and (ii) in (A) this Agreement and (B) any Seller disclosure letters or information provided in writing prior to Closing (collectively the items in (i) and (ii), the “Due Diligence Items”).  Buyer acknowledges that Seller has never occupied any Property and that all Due Diligence Items are to Seller’s actual knowledge. Buyer represents and warrants that Buyer has thoroughly reviewed the Due Diligence Items prior to execution of this Agreement and that Buyer has had adequate time to ask questions and have questions satisfactorily answered as to such information.

(b)Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that, when it has accumulated in a building in sufficient quantities, may present health risks to persons who are exposed to it over time.  Levels of radon that exceed federal and state guidelines have been found in buildings.  Additional information regarding radon and radon testing may be obtained from your county public health unit.

22.ENVIRONMENTAL REPRESENTATION LIMITATION. To the maximum extent permitted by law, and except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, Seller has not, does not and will not make

 


 

any representations or warranties (express or implied) regarding compliance with any governmental requirement, including, but not limited to, those pertaining to the handling, generating, treating, storing or disposing of any hazardous material.  Except as to Seller’s representations and warranties expressly made in this Agreement, Buyer waives and releases Seller and Seller’s Broker from any present or future claims arising from or relating to the presence or alleged presence of hazardous material in, on, under or about a Property, including, without limitation, any claims under or on account of (i) the Comprehensive Environmental Response and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq., the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 6901, et seq., the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended, 33 U.S.C. § 1251 et seq., and similar state statutes, and any regulations promulgated thereunder, or (ii) any other governmental requirement now or hereafter in effect that deals with or otherwise in any manner relates to, environmental matters of any kind, or (iii) this Agreement or the common law.

23.AS-IS, WHERE-IS SALE.  Except as expressly stated in this Agreement and to the maximum extent permitted by law, Seller makes no other (and specifically disclaims any) representations, warranties covenants, agreements or guaranties of, as to, concerning or with respect to each Property, whether express or implied, oral or written past, present or future. Buyer agrees, acknowledges and accepts that each Property is being sold on an “as-is”, “where-is” basis with all faults and conditions thereon.  Subject to Sections 15 and 16, and those items shown in the Buyer’s Title Policy (as defined below) approved or deemed approved by Buyer, Buyer accepts each Property with all defects, latent or patent, known or unknown, and without any express or implied representations or warranties, regarding the value, condition, merchantability, habitability, profitability, suitability or fitness for a particular use or purpose. Subject to any addendum to this Agreement, Buyer acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to perform and complete all of Buyer’s due diligence examinations, reviews and inspections of all matters pertaining to each Property, including, physical, environmental and compliance matters and conditions respecting each Property, or has voluntarily waived such some or all of such matters. Buyer acknowledges that it is fully satisfied with the results of such due diligence examinations, reviews and inspections, if any, and all matters pertaining to each Property.  Seller is materially relying upon this provision in executing this Agreement at the Purchase Price and would not otherwise execute this Agreement without this provision. Seller has not made and Buyer does not expect or require Seller (or Seller’s agents) to make any investigation of each Property to discover defects, conditions or other physical matters. This section will survive the Closing.

24.DAMAGE OR CONDEMNATION.  Risk of loss resulting from any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding that is commenced or has been threatened before the Closing, and risk of loss to each Property due to fire, flood, or any other cause before Closing, will remain with Seller.  If before Closing a Property or any portion thereof is Materially Damaged (as set forth below), or if a Property or any portion thereof is subjected to a threat of condemnation or becomes the subject of any proceedings, judicial, administrative, or otherwise, with respect to the taking by eminent domain or condemnation, then Seller will promptly provide written notice to Buyer. Within fifteen (15) days after Buyer learns of the damage or taking, Buyer may exclude the affected Property by delivering to Seller a written notice of such exclusion and the total Purchase Price will be adjusted downward by the allocated price pursuant to the Per Property Allocation.  If the Closing Date is within this fifteen (15) day period, the Closing will be extended to the next Business Day following the end of such period.  If no such notice is timely delivered by Buyer, (i) this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, (ii) the purchase of the affected Property, less any interest taken by eminent domain or condemnation, will be effected with no further adjustment, (iii) upon Closing, Seller will assign to Buyer all of the right, title, and interest of Seller in and to any awards that have been or may thereafter be made for such taking, and (iv) Seller will assign to Buyer any insurance proceeds that may thereafter be made for such damage or destruction, giving Buyer a credit at Closing for any deductible under the relevant insurance policies.  As used in this Agreement, the term “Materially Damaged” means that a Property has suffered damage which (A) the cost of repair exceeds 20% of the applicable Purchase Price, as estimated by an independent general contractor designated by Seller, or (B) is not fully covered by Seller’s insurance policies.  If before Closing, a Property or any portion thereof is damaged by casualty, but not Materially Damaged, then Seller will promptly provide written notice thereof to Buyer, Seller will assign to Buyer at Closing any insurance proceeds that may thereafter be made for such damage or destruction, giving Buyer a credit at Closing for any deductible under the relevant insurance policies, and the Closing will proceed in accordance with the remaining terms of this Agreement.

 


 

25.CLOSING COSTS AND PRORATIONS.

(a)Closing Fees.  The parties agree to the allocation of costs set forth on Schedule 3 attached hereto.

(b)Title Policy.  Buyer shall obtain and pay the cost of a standard residential owner’s title insurance policy (“Buyer’s Title Policy”) issued by the Title Company. Such Buyer’s Title Policy will conform to the ALTA standards or such equivalent as is customarily used in the jurisdiction in which a Property is located. Buyer will pay the additional cost necessary for any extended coverage residential owner’s policy as Buyer elects to obtain.  Buyer will also pay the cost of any and all endorsements to the Buyer’s Title Policy unless required to be provided by Seller to clear a Title Defect for which Buyer provided Seller a Defect Notice pursuant to Section 16 and which Seller agreed to cure, in which case, Seller will be responsible for the cost of such endorsements. If Buyer is obtaining financing, Buyer will pay the cost of any title policy required by Buyer’s lender (“Lender’s Title Policy”).

(c)Taxes, Fees and HOA Assessments.  Real estate taxes for the year of Closing and annual municipal or special district assessments, lienable water and sewer rentals, license, or permit and inspection fees, and assessments relating to homeowners’ associations affecting a Property, if any, will be apportioned as of the Closing Date between Buyer and Seller on the basis of a thirty (30) day month.  If the tax bill for the real estate tax year in which the Closing occurs has not been issued on or before the day prior to the Closing Date, the apportionment of taxes will be computed based upon the most recent tax bill available and will be reconciled after Closing based on the actual taxes due.  If, on the day prior to the Closing Date, bills for the real estate taxes imposed upon a Property for the real estate tax year in which Closing occurs have been issued but have not been paid, such taxes will be paid by Seller at the time of Closing.

(d)Rent.  Rent (including any prepaid rent) under each Lease will be apportioned as of the Closing Date (collectively, “Lease Payments”).  All Lease Payments which are attributable to the period of time prior to the Closing Date will accrue to Seller.  All Lease Payments which are attributable to the period of time from and after the Closing Date will accrue to Buyer.  If the Closing occurs on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, then Buyer will receive a credit at Closing for the portion of the Lease Payments actually received by Seller for the month of Closing relating to the period of time from and after the date of Closing through the remaining portion of the month.  In the event that as of the Closing a tenant is in arrears for Lease Payments, then Buyer and Seller agree that any Lease Payments received by Buyer from and after Closing will be applied: (i) first, to payment of the Lease Payments due for the month in which the Closing Date occurs, which amount will be apportioned between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date, (ii) second, to Lease Payments first coming due after Closing, and actually due and owing, and applicable to the period of time after Closing, and (iii) third, to Lease Payments due for the time period prior to the month in which the Closing Date occurs. Any amounts received by Buyer which are to be applied to Lease Payments owed to Seller will be promptly delivered by Buyer to Seller following receipt thereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, after Closing, Seller may commence an action to collect delinquent Lease Payments due to Seller (and Buyer will reasonably cooperate with respect thereto).  If after the Closing, Seller (or its agent) receives any Lease Payments Seller agrees to hold such payments in trust for the Buyer and to promptly forward them to the Buyer (or its agent) within thirty (30) days of receipt.

(e)Tenant Deposits. At Closing, Buyer will receive a credit for all deposits (including any applicable interest required by applicable law or agreement) and other prepaid items then held by or for Seller under each Lease. Buyer or Buyer’s property manager will provide any required notices to tenant or other third-party as may be required under applicable law.

(f)Preliminary Closing Statement.  Seller and Buyer will cooperate with Title Company to prepare a preliminary closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) on the basis of the Lease, real estate taxes and other sources of income and expenses for each Property, and any income tax withholding, on or prior to the Closing Date.  The preliminary Closing Statement and the apportionments and/or pro-rations will be based upon actual figures to the extent available on a per diem basis.  If any of the apportionments and/or prorations cannot be calculated accurately based on actual figures on the Closing Date, then they will be calculated based on Seller’s and Buyer’s good faith estimates thereof.

 


 

(g)Other Costs and Survival.  All other costs, fees or expenses not addressed within this section will be the sole responsibility of the incurring party. The provisions of this section will survive Closing for a period of nine (9) months.
