ARTICLE 4
INVESTIGATION PERIOD; VOLUNTARY TERMINATION; TITLE
Section 4.1Investigation Period.  During the time period commencing upon the Effective Date of this Agreement, and terminating at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the date that is thirty (30) Calendar Days after the Effective Date (the "Investigation Period"), Buyer shall have the right to conduct and complete an investigation of all matters pertaining to the Property and Buyer's purchase thereof including, without limitation, the matters described in this Section 4.1.
(a)Seller's Deliveries.  Within three (3) Calendar Days following the Effective Date of this Agreement, Seller, at Seller's expense, shall cause to be delivered to Buyer, to the extent within its possession or reasonable control, true, correct and complete copies of all documents, agreements and other information relating to the Property listed on Schedule 1.0 attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (collectively, the "Seller's Deliveries").  Seller will promptly deliver to Buyer true, correct and complete copies of any supplements and/or updates of Seller's Deliveries to the extent such items are received by Seller prior to Closing.  During the Investigation Period, Buyer shall have the right to conduct and complete an investigation of all matters pertaining to Seller's Deliveries and all other matters pertaining to the Property and Buyer's acquisition thereof.  In this regard, Buyer shall have the right to contact the Seller's management, governmental agencies and officials and other parties and make reasonable inquiries concerning Seller's Deliveries and any and all other matters pertaining to the Property.  Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate with Buyer in connection with Buyer's investigation of Seller's Deliveries and all other matters pertaining to the Property.  
(b)Preliminary Title Report/Survey.  On or before (i) the expiration of five (5) Business Days following the Effective Date, Seller shall cause to be delivered to Buyer a current preliminary title report covering the Real Property, together with copies of all documents referred to as exceptions therein ("Preliminary Title Report"), from Title Insurer; and (ii) the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause a current ALTA Survey of the Real Property to be prepared by a surveyor licensed under the laws of the state where the Real Property is located, which ALTA Survey shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, and which ALTA survey shall be prepared in accordance with the 2011 ALTA/ACSM Minimum Standard Detail Requirements with such Table A items selected by Buyer and any other standards of Buyer ("Survey").  Not later than 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the date that is four (4) Business Days before expiration of the Investigation Period, Buyer shall have the right to notify Seller in writing ("Disapproved Title Exceptions Notice") of Buyer's disapproval of any matters set forth in the Preliminary Title Report and the Survey ("Disapproved Title Exceptions").  In the event Buyer timely delivers to Seller a Disapproved Title Exceptions Notice, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except with respect to Disapproved Title Exceptions that constitute Monetary Obligations, as set forth below), to agree to cure one or more of the Disapproved Title Exceptions by giving Buyer written notice ("Cure Notice") of such election not later than 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the date that is two (2) Business Days before expiration of the Investigation Period.  Following the timely receipt of a Disapproved Title Exceptions Notice from Buyer, if Seller fails to timely deliver a Cure Notice to Buyer, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure any of the Disapproved Title Exceptions.  A Disapproved Title Exception shall be deemed to have been cured if Seller causes such item to be removed from the record title of the Real Property and not listed as a title exception in Schedule B of the ALTA Extended Coverage Policy prior to the Closing or otherwise cures such Disapproved Title Exception as determined by Buyer in Buyer's sole and absolute discretion.   
In the event Seller timely elects (or is deemed to have timely elected) not to cure the Disapproved Title Exceptions, then prior to the expiration of the Investigation Period, Buyer may elect: (i) to terminate this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2 hereof; or (ii) to not terminate this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, in which case those Disapproved Title Exceptions which are not cured and which are not Monetary Obligations which Seller is obligated to cure on or before the Closing pursuant to Section 5.1(f) hereof, shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Title Exceptions.
Following the timely receipt of a Disapproved Title Exceptions Notice from Buyer, if Seller elects to cure one or more of the Disapproved Title Exceptions, then Seller shall have until the last Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date to cure the applicable Disapproved Title Exceptions.  In the event Seller: (A) timely 
8






elects to cure the Disapproved Title Exceptions; and (B) fails to timely cure any Disapproved Title Exceptions that Seller has elected to cure on or before the Closing Date, then Seller shall be in default under this Agreement and, in such a case, at any time on or before the Closing Date, Buyer may elect to either: (1) continue this Agreement in effect without modification and purchase and acquire the Property in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, subject to such Disapproved Title Exceptions (which will be deemed to constitute "Permitted Title Exceptions"); or (2) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.6(a) hereof.  Notwithstanding any provision in the Agreement to the contrary, pursuant to Section 5.1(e) hereof, Seller shall be obligated to cure all Monetary Obligations on or before the Closing.
Fee title to the Real Property shall be conveyed by Seller to Buyer subject only to the following exceptions to title (collectively, the "Permitted Title Exceptions"):
(i)Non-delinquent real and personal property taxes and assessments;
(ii)The lien of supplemental taxes, if any; 
(iii)Any lien imposed by Buyer;
(iv)The possessory rights of Tenant under the Lease;
(v)The recordable Condominium Documents;
(vi)Any matters set forth in the Preliminary Title Report and the Survey that are approved or waived by Buyer in accordance with the procedures and within the time periods set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof; and
(vii)All New Title Exceptions approved by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1(c) hereof.
(c)New Title Exceptions.  In the event that prior to the Closing, any new title exceptions are discovered by or revealed to Seller, which new title exceptions were not otherwise set forth or referred to in the Preliminary Title Report ("New Title Exceptions"), Seller shall deliver written notice to Buyer disclosing the existence of such New Title Exceptions, together with copies of all underlying documents.  Each such New Title Exception shall be deemed to constitute a Disapproved Title Exception except to the extent Buyer gives Seller written notice of Buyer's approval ("New Title Exceptions Approval Notice") of one or more New Title Exceptions within five (5) Business Days (but in no event later than the Closing Date, which date shall be extended to allow for delivery of the New Title Exceptions Approval Notice two (2) Business Days prior to Closing) after the date of Buyer's receipt of Seller's written notice of the existence of such New Title Exceptions.

GENERAL PROVISIONS OF ESCROW
THESE GENERAL PROVISIONS OF ESCROW ("General Provisions"), are being entered into pursuant to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions, dated _____________, 20___, by and between _____________________________, as the "Seller,", and ___________________________________, as the "Buyer," as the same may be amended from time to time ("Purchase Agreement").  Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.
THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE: 
1.Deposit of Funds and Disbursements.  Unless directed in writing by Seller or Buyer, as applicable, to establish a separate, interest-bearing account together with all necessary taxpayer reporting information, all funds received by Escrow Agent shall be deposited in general escrow accounts in a federally insured financial institution ("Depositories").  All disbursements shall be made by Escrow Agent's check or by wire transfer unless otherwise instructed in writing by the party to receive such disbursement.  The Good Funds Law requires that Escrow Agent have confirmation of receipt of funds prior to disbursement. 
2.Disclosure of Possible Benefits to Escrow Agent.  As a result of Escrow Agent maintaining its general escrow accounts with the Depositories, Escrow Agent may receive certain financial benefits such as an array of bank services, accommodations, loans or other business transactions from the Depositories ("Collateral Benefits").  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term Collateral Benefits shall not include any interest that accrues or is earned on the Initial Deposit and in no event and under no circumstance shall Escrow Agent be entitled to receive and retain any interest that accrues or is earned on the Initial Deposit.  All Collateral Benefits shall accrue to the sole benefit of Escrow Agent and Escrow Agent shall have no obligation to account to the parties to this Escrow for the value of any such Collateral Benefits. 
3.Miscellaneous Fees.  Escrow Agent may incur certain additional costs on behalf of the parties for services performed by third party providers.  The fees charged by Escrow Agent for such services shall not include a mark up or premium over the direct cost of such services.

Escrow Agent shall deliver copies of any such reports as directed.  Escrow Agent is not responsible for reviewing such reports or advising the parties of the content of the same. 
7.Recordation of Documents.  Escrow Agent is authorized to prepare, obtain, record and deliver the necessary instruments to carry out the terms and conditions of this Escrow and, to the extent that Escrow Agent is also the Title Company, to issue the ALTA Extended Coverage Policy at Closing, subject to and in accordance with the Purchase Agreement or pursuant to separate written instructions to Escrow Agent executed by Seller.
8.Conflicting Instructions and Disputes.  No notice, demand or change of instructions shall be of any effect in this Escrow unless given in writing by Seller and Buyer.  In the event a demand for the Initial Deposit and/or any other amounts in this Escrow is made which is not concurred with by Seller and Buyer (regardless of who made demand therefor), Escrow Agent may elect to file a suit in interpleader and obtain an order from the court allowing Escrow Agent to deposit all funds and documents in court and have no further liability with respect thereto.  
G-1






If an action is brought involving this Escrow and/or Escrow Agent, Seller and Buyer agree to indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless against liabilities, damages and costs incurred by Escrow Agent (including reasonable attorney's fees and costs) except to the extent that such liabilities, damages and costs were caused by the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Escrow Agent. 
9.Amendments to General Provisions.  Any amendment to these General Provisions must be mutually agreed to by Seller and Buyer and accepted by Escrow Agent.  The Purchase Agreement and these General Provisions shall constitute the entire escrow agreement between the Escrow Agent and the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of the Escrow. 
10.Copies of Documents; Authorization to Release.  Escrow Agent is authorized to rely upon copies of documents, which include facsimile, electronic, NCR, or photocopies as if they were an originally executed document.

12.Tax Reporting, Withholding and Disclosure.  The Parties are advised to seek independent advice concerning the tax consequences of this transaction, including but not limited to, their withholding, reporting and disclosure obligations. Escrow Agent does not provide tax or legal advice and the parties agree to hold Escrow Agent harmless from any loss or damage that the parties may incur as a result of their failure to comply with federal and/or state tax laws.  EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS ARE THE EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES AND ESCROW AGENT IS NOT RESPONSIBLE TO PERFORM THESE OBLIGATIONS UNLESS ESCROW AGENT AGREES IN WRITING. 
13.Taxpayer Identification Number Reporting.  Federal law requires Escrow Agent to report Seller's social security number and/or tax identification number, forwarding address, and the gross sales price to the Internal Revenue Service. Escrow cannot be closed nor any documents recorded until the information is provided and Seller certifies the accuracy of such information to Escrow Agent. 
14.Purchase Agreement.  In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and the terms and conditions of these General Provisions, the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement shall govern.
15.Notices.  All notices relating to these General Provisions shall be given in compliance with the Notice provisions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
