defects and encumbrances except the Buyer's Permitted Exceptions.
8
4.2. Title Commitment. Buyer shall obtain a current/updated ALTA form of commitment for
an owner's standard policy of title insurance (the "Title Commitment") issued by Fidelity
National Title Insurance Company (the "Title Company"), describing the Property, listing
Buyer as the prospective named insured and showing as the policy amount the total
Purchase Price for the Property. At such time as the Title Company causes the Title
Commitment to be furnished to Buyer, the Title Company shall further cause to be
furnished to Buyer legible copies of all instruments referred to in the Title Commitment as
restrictions or exceptions to title to the Property.
4.2.1. Survey. If the Buyer desires to obtain an owner's extended coverage title policy,
and if required by the Title Company, Buyer will have, at its expense, prepared and
furnished to the Title Company, a survey (the "'Survey") of the Property prepared
by a licensed surveyor. The Survey shall be satisfactory to the Title Company so as
to permit it to issue an owner's extended coverage title policy.
4.2.2. Review of Title Commitment and Survey. Buyer shall have until the end of the Due
Diligence Period in which to notify Seller in writing ("Buyer's Title Notice") of
any objections Buyer has to any matters shown or referred to in the Title
Commitment or Survey and of any title insurance endorsements required by Buyer.
In the event that the condition of title is not acceptable, Buyer shall specify and set
forth each of such objections ("Objections") in the Buyer's Title Notice. Seller
shall notify Buyer in writing ("Seller's Title Response") within fifteen (15) days
of receipt of Buyer's Title Notice as to which Objections that Seller will not remove
as of the Closing Date ("Remaining Objections"). Seller shall be contractually
obligated to remove any title matters to which Buyer has objected that are not
Remaining Objections. If there are any Remaining Objections, Buyer may, at its
option by written notice within five (5) business days after Seller's Title Response
(or lack of response within such time frame), (i) accept title subject to the Remaining
Objections, in which event the Remaining Objections shall be deemed to be waived
for all purposes, or (ii) terminate this Agreement, in which event any Earnest
Money and any Extension Deposit(s) paid shall be immediately returned to Buyer.
Any exceptions or other items that are set forth in the Title Commitment or the
Survey and to which Buyer does not object within the review period shall be
deemed to be permitted exceptions ("Permitted Exceptions"). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, all monetary liens or encumbrances shall be paid by Seller at closing.
If the title commitment is amended at any time to add new title exceptions, the
above review process shall be repeated, but solely with respect to such new
exceptions.
4.3. Owner's Title Insurance Policy. At Closing, Seller shall cause a standard owner's policy of
title insurance to be issued by the Title Company in the full amount of the Purchase Price,
effective as of the Closing Date, insuring Buyer that the fee simple title to the Property is
vested in Buyer, subject only to the usual printed exceptions contained in such title
insurance policy and the Permitted Exceptions. Seller shall execute and deliver to the Title
Company on or before Closing such affidavits and other documents as the Title Company
customarily or reasonably requires to issue extended coverage and that are in a form
reasonably acceptable to Seller ("Owner's Title Affidavit").
Gi
4.4. Conveyance. Seller shall convey to Buyer the title to the Property by bargain and sale deed,
subject only to the Permitted Exceptions and reservations of Seller that may be defined.

or development of the Property, excluding appraisals or other statements of value, and
including the following: statements for real estate taxes, assessments, and utilities for the

surveys; any existing inspection reports; and "Vendor Contracts" which shall include
maintenance or service contracts, and installments purchase contracts or leases of personal
property or fixtures used in connection with the Property (collectively, the "Due Diligence
Materials"). Seller shall not be required to create or obtain any new documents and shall
be required only to provide such documents as Seller may have in its current possession.
Seller has no actual knowledge that any of the Due Diligence Materials contain inaccurate
information or that any of the Due Diligence Materials are incomplete. As used herein
"actual knowledge" of the Seller means the actual knowledge of facts or circumstances
actually known to the Knowledge Parties, as set forth above. In no event shall either
Knowledge Party have any personal liability for the knowledge or obligations of Seller
under the Agreement, including the representations and warranties to be made under this
Section without any duty of inquiry. Seller makes no other representations or warranties
of any kind whatsoever to Buyer as to the accuracy or completeness of the content of the
Due Diligence Materials or any other information delivered to or made available to Buyer
pursuant to this Agreement, and beyond this specific representation, Seller shall not have
any liability or responsibility to Buyer with respect to the accuracy or completeness of any
of the Due Diligence Materials or other information or based upon or arising out of any use
Buyer may make of the Due Diligence Materials or other information.
All Vendor Contracts shall be terminated by Seller at Seller's expense no later than the
Closing Date. Buyer shall satisfy itself by investigation and inspection, at its cost and
expense and in its sole and absolute discretion that the condition of the Property for Buyer's
contemplated use meets with its approval ("Feasibility Contingency") within Ninety (90)
days after the Effective Date, subject to extensions pursuant to Section 5.2 ("Due Diligence
Period"). Unless Buyer provides Seller with written notice, on or before the expiration of
the Due Diligence Period, expressly waiving the Feasibility Contingency, this Agreement
shall automatically terminate upon expiration of the Due Diligence Period, and the Earnest
Money deposited shall be immediately refunded to Buyer. If Buyer timely delivers such
written notice of waiver, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, and
whereupon no party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder. If Buyer delivers
written notice of its approval of the condition of the Property prior to the expiration of the Due
1[7
Diligence Period, this feasibility contingency shall be deemed removed. If Buyer fails to
provide Seller with such written statement of satisfaction or waiver of the Feasibility
Contingency by the end of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have
disapproved the condition of the Property, in which event this Agreement shall terminate,
the Earnest Money deposited shall be immediately refunded to Buyer, and whereupon no
party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for Buyer's
indemnification of Seller in this Agreement.

Property and perform any and all tests, inspections and studies
deemed necessary therewith, subject to Section 5.1.2;

may reasonably request from Seller that are not subject to attorney-
client privilege or that the Seller is not otherwise prohibited from
disclosing by law;

variances can be obtained under applicable land use and zoning

is economically feasible.
5.1.2. Right of Entry. Buyer and Buyer's designated representatives or agents shall have
the right to enter the Property and conduct the tests, investigations and studies set
forth above upon at least twenty-four (24) hours' prior written notice to Seller, which
written notice shall contain a brief description of the tests, investigations and studies
to be performed and the persons or parties who will be performing the same. Seller
shall have the right to accompany the Buyer during any access or entry onto the
Property. Any invasive testing shall be subject to Seller's prior written approval
of a testing plan, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned,
or delayed. Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid any physical
alteration of the Property and shall restore the Property to its original condition or
better at Buyer's sole expense if such physical alteration occurs.
5.1.3. Insurance and Indemnity. Buyer agrees that Buyer, and the contractors,
representatives and agents of Buyer who enter upon the Property, shall maintain

Seller; provided, that, Seller shall retain as liquidated damages the Extension Deposits
actually paid (if any) by Buyer; and the Earnest Money.

ARTICLE 9.
DEFAULT; REMEDIES
9.1. Seller's Defaults; Buyer's Remedies. In the event of a breach by Seller of its pre -Closing
or Closing obligations under this Agreement, which breach is not cured ten (10) days after
Seller's receipt of notice of default from Buyer, Buyer may elect only one of the
following two remedies: (a) terminate this Agreement, receive a refund of all Earnest
Money and any Extension Deposits paid by Buyer, and receive from Seller reimbursement
of Buyer's reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in pursuing this transaction; or (b)
enforce specific performance of this Agreement against Seller, including the right to recover
attorneys' fees, provided that in order to elect and pursue the remedy of specific
performance, Buyer must commence and file such action within ninety (90) days after the
scheduled Closing Date. After Closing, in the event of a breach by Seller of its obligations
under any Surviving Provisions, Buyer may exercise any rights and remedies available at
law or in equity.
9.2. Buyer's Defaults; Seller's Remedies. In the event of a breach by Buyer of its pre -Closing
or Closing obligations under this Agreement, which breach is not cured within ten (10)
days after Buyer's receipt of notice of default from Seller, Seller's sole remedy shall be to
terminate this Agreement, retain the Earnest Money and any Extension Deposits paid by
Buyer and any interest earned thereon, as liquidated damages, not as a penalty. BUYER
AND SELLER AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR
IMPRACTICAL TO QUANTIFY THE ACTUAL DAMAGES TO SELLER IN THE
EVENT OF A BREACH BY BUYER, THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE EARNEST
14
MONEY AND EXTENSION DEPOSITS PAID IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF
SUCH ACTUAL DAMAGES, AND THAT SELLER'S REMEDY IN THE EVENT OF A
BREACH BY BUYER SHALL BE TO RETAIN THE EARNEST MONEY,
EXTENSION DEPOSITS PAID AND ANY EARNINGS THEREON AS
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this liquidated damages provision does not limit Buyer's
obligations under any Provision of this Agreement which expressly survives Closing or
termination hereof. After Closing, in the event of a breach by Buyer of its obligations under
any Surviving Provisions, Seller may exercise any rights and remedies available at law or
in equity.
9.2.1. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, the ten (10) day cure period set forth above
shall not apply to Buyer's or Seller's failure to timely proceed to closing of the
transaction contemplated herein on the Closing Date (as may be extended) as set
forth in Section 8.2 above.
ARTICLE 10.

10.9. Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assignable or otherwise transferable (i) by Buyer
without the prior written consent of Seller, and (ii) by Seller without the prior written

10.12. Condemnation. If at any time prior to the Closing Date there shall be a taking by eminent
domain proceedings or the commencing of any such proceedings, with respect to the
Property, Seller shall promptly give written notice thereof to Buyer, and, if such taking by
eminent domain proceedings would result in a Material Change, Buyer shall have the right,
at Buyer's sole option, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller within
thirty (30) days after Buyer receives written notice of such proceedings, in which event the
Earnest Money and any Extension Deposits paid by Buyer shall be immediately refunded
to Buyer, and neither party hereto shall have any further duties, obligations or liability to
the other, except as specifically provided herein. A "Material Change" means a taking that
would result in (a) a diminution in value of the Property or a cost to restore the Property of
more than $100,000 as estimated by an independent consultant acceptable to Buyer and
Seller; (b) the procurement of the entitlements sought by Buyer being impaired or
impracticable (as determined by Buyer in Buyer's sole discretion); (c) a material
impairment of access to the Property; or (d) Buyer's ability to construct its planned
facilities on the Property being impaired or impracticable (as determined by Buyer in
