10.1.1     Purchaser shall have executed and delivered to Seller all of the documents, shall have paid all sums of money and shall have taken or caused to be taken all of the other action required of Purchaser in this Agreement.

 

10.1.2     All representations and warranties made by Purchaser in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date.

 

10.2     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the obligation of Purchaser to close title and pay the Purchase Price in accordance with this Agreement is expressly conditioned upon the fulfillment by and as of the Closing Date of each of the conditions listed below, provided that Purchaser, at its election, evidenced by notice delivered to Seller at or prior to the Closing, may waive all or any of such conditions:

 

10.2.1     Seller shall have executed and delivered to Purchaser all of the documents required to be delivered by Seller at the Closing, and shall have taken or caused to be taken all of the other action required of Seller at the Closing.

 

10.2.2     All representations and warranties made by Seller in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date. To the extent that Purchaser knows at or prior to Closing that any of Seller’s representations or warranties are inaccurate, untrue, incorrect or misleading in any material way (whether matters contradicting any representation or warranty are contained in any Exhibit or Schedule to this Agreement, or are contained in any materials delivered or available to Purchaser by or on behalf of Seller or whether such matters are contained in any study, test, analysis or report prepared by or for the benefit of Purchaser), and Purchaser consummates the Closing, the representations and warranties will be deemed modified to reflect Purchaser’s knowledge and will not form the basis for any action against Seller (except to the extent that prior to Closing the Parties enter into a written agreement in connection with same). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on the Closing Date any such representations and warranties are not true and correct in all material respects, Purchaser shall in any event be required to close hereunder and pay the Purchase Price (less any adjustment) to Seller and Seller shall be required at Closing to pay to Purchaser (or the sales price shall be adjusted by credit to Purchaser) such amount on account of such breach(es), misrepresentations, warranty claims and casualty losses to remedy all such breach(es), warranty claims and casualty losses. If such misrepresentations, warranty claim, and casualty losses shall in the aggregate exceed the sum of Seventy-Five ($75,000.00) Dollars, then either Purchaser or Seller may cancel the Contract and in such event the Purchaser shall be entitled to a refund of all moneys paid by or on behalf of Purchaser on account of this Contract. For purposes hereof, a representation or warranty shall not be deemed to have been breached if the representation or warranty is not true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date by reason of changed facts or circumstances which pursuant to the terms of this Agreement are permitted to have occurred and are not within the control of Seller.

 

17

 

 

10.2.3     The Title Company shall be willing to insure title to the Property pursuant to an ALTA 2006 Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance in the amount of the Purchase Price at regular rates and without additional premium (which shall not be deemed to include the cost of any endorsements to title requested by Purchaser), subject only to the Permitted Exceptions and as otherwise provided in this Agreement (the “Title Policy”).

 

11.     Limitation on Liability of Parties.

 

11.1     If Purchaser shall default in the performance of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and the Closing does not occur as a result thereof (a “Purchaser Default”), Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be, and Seller shall be entitled, to retain the Downpayment as and for full and complete liquidated and agreed damages for Purchaser’s default, and the parties hereto shall be released from any further liability to each other hereunder, except for those obligations and liabilities that are expressly stated to survive termination of this Agreement. SELLER AND PURCHASER AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ESTIMATE THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER MAY SUFFER UPON A PURCHASER DEFAULT AND THAT THE DOWNPAYMENT AND ANY INTEREST EARNED THEREFROM, AS THE CASE MAY BE, REPRESENTS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE TOTAL NET DETRIMENT THAT SELLER WOULD SUFFER UPON A PURCHASER DEFAULT. SUCH LIQUIDATED AND AGREED DAMAGES ARE NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR A PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF APPLICABLE LAW.

 

11.2      If Seller shall default in the performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement and the Closing does not occur as a result thereof, In addition to the refund of its Downpayment, Purchaser shall be entitled to assert all equitable and legal remedies available to it.

 

18

 

 

11.3     Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3 and 11.2 hereof, in the event that Seller shall default in the performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement and the Closing does not occur as a result thereof, Purchaser shall be entitled to (a) terminate this Agreement, and thereupon receive a return of the Downpayment, together with the interest earned thereon, if any,(b) seek specific performance of Seller’s obligations as required in this Agreement, provided that any such action for specific performance must be commenced within sixty (60) days after such default (as to which date time shall be of the essence), and (c) avail itself of any other remedy at law or in equity to which it is entitled. In the event Purchaser shall seek specific performance of this Agreement or institute a plenary action, the successful party shall be entitled to a judgment for any costs, expenses or damages incurred by it in connection therewith.

 

11.4     Any claim by Purchaser, whether made prior to or after the Closing, of a breach of one or more of Seller’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 8.1 or a claim for indemnity under this Agreement or any document delivered by Seller at the Closing (individually or collectively, as applicable, a “Breach”) shall be made by Purchaser delivering to Seller’s attorney written notice (a “Claim Notice”) promptly after Purchaser has learned of such Breach and, in all events, prior to expiration of the Survival Period, which Claim Notice shall set forth (a) a description in reasonable detail of the claimed Breach, (b) the Section and subsection of this Agreement under which the claimed Breach is asserted, and (c) Purchaser's good-faith calculation of the diminution in the total value of the Property affected by such Breach resulting therefrom (the “Claimed Damage”). Purchaser's and Seller’s rights and remedies in respect of any alleged Breach shall, without limiting the foregoing, be as hereinbelow provided.

 

11.5     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, from and after the Closing Date, with respect to any asserted Breach of Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 8.1, (a) Seller shall have no liability to Purchaser (i) if Purchaser has not delivered a Claim Notice with respect thereto as required pursuant to Section11.4 above (the Breaches described in this clause (i) being herein referred to as “Nonqualifying Breaches”) and (ii) unless and until there shall be found to have existed pursuant to a final, nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction one or more Breaches other than Nonqualifying Breaches that constitute individually or in the aggregate a Material Adverse Effect, (b) Purchaser shall in no event whatsoever be entitled to recover consequential damages against Seller with respect to any such asserted Breach, (c) Purchaser shall in no event whatsoever be entitled to recover for any Breach of which Purchaser was aware at or before the Closing. If, prior to the Closing, there occurs or exists a Breach which does not have a Material Adverse Effect, then Purchaser shall have no remedy therefore and must proceed to the Closing except that there shall be an equitable adjustment of the Purchase Price.

 

11.6     The terms and provisions of this Section 11 shall survive the Closing.

 

19

12.2     If prior to the Closing there shall occur (a) damage to the Property caused by fire or other casualty which would cost an amount equal to 25% of the Purchase Price or more to repair, as reasonably determined by an engineer selected by Seller which is reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser or (b) a taking by condemnation of any material portion of the Property, then, and in either such event, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice given to Seller within ten (10) business days after Seller has given Purchaser the notice referred to in Section 12.1 hereof, or at the Closing, whichever is earlier, in which event Seller shall promptly instruct Escrow Agent, to make a Downpayment Return, this Agreement shall thereupon be null and void and neither party hereto shall thereupon have any further obligation to the other, except that the provisions of Sections 6.4, 13, 24 and 27 hereof shall survive such termination. If neither Purchaser nor Seller elects to terminate this Agreement, then the Closing shall take place as herein provided, without abatement of the Purchase Price (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties), and Seller shall assign to Purchaser at the Closing, by written instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, all of Seller’s interest in and to any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards which may be payable to Seller on account of any such fire, casualty or condemnation, shall deliver to Purchaser any such proceeds or awards actually theretofore paid, less any amounts (the "Reimbursable Amounts") (i) actually and reasonably expended or incurred by Seller in adjusting any insurance claim or negotiating and/or obtaining any condemnation award (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and/or (ii) theretofore actually and reasonably incurred or expended by or for the account of Seller for the cost of any compliance with laws, protective restoration or emergency repairs made by or on behalf of Seller (to the extent Seller has not theretofore been reimbursed by its insurance carriers for such expenditures), and Seller shall pay to Purchaser the amount of the deductible, if any, under Seller’s property insurance policy(ies), less all Reimbursable Amounts not received by Seller from any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards paid to Seller prior to the Closing. The proceeds of rent interruption insurance, if any, shall on the Closing Date be appropriately apportioned between Purchaser and Seller.

 

12.3     If, prior to the Closing, there shall occur (a) damage to the Property caused by fire or other casualty which would cost less than 25% of the Purchase Price to repair, as reasonably determined by an engineer selected by Seller which is reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser or (b) a taking by condemnation of any part of the Property which is not material, then, and in either such event, neither party shall have the right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement by reason thereof, but Seller shall assign to Purchaser at the Closing, by written instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, all of Seller’s interest in any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards which may be payable to Seller on account of any such fire, casualty or condemnation, or shall deliver to Purchaser any such proceeds or awards actually theretofore paid, in each case less any Reimbursable Amounts. The proceeds of rent interruption insurance, if any, shall on the Closing Date be appropriately apportioned between Purchaser and Seller.

 

20

 

 

12.4     Nothing contained in this Section 12 shall be construed to impose upon Seller any obligation to repair any damage or destruction caused by fire or other casualty or condemnation.

 

12.5     In the event neither Purchaser nor Seller elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 12.2 above, or upon the occurrence of the events set forth in Section 12.3 (a) or (b) above, Seller shall have the exclusive right to negotiate, compromise or contest the obtaining of any insurance proceeds and/or any condemnation awards.

Seller shall pay the commission due to Broker pursuant to a separate agreement. Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller that it has not engaged any broker, consultant, finder or like agent who might be entitled to a commission or compensation with respect to any of the transactions described in this Agreement or otherwise relating to the purchase of the Property; nor, except for Broker, has any broker, consultant, finder or like agent brought about such transactions, brought the Property to the attention of Purchaser or otherwise communicated with Purchaser with respect to any such transactions or the Property. Each party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other party from and against all claims, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) caused by or arising out of: (a) a breach of any of the aforesaid representations and warranties of the indemnifying party; and (b) any claims for any brokerage or sales commissions, consultant’s fees, finder’s fees or any other similar fees or compensation of any person or entity (other than Broker) claiming to have dealt with, on behalf of, through or under such indemnifying party.
