1.3    Earnest Money.  The Initial Deposit, in immediately available federal funds, evidencing Buyer's good faith to perform Buyer's obligations under this Agreement, shall be deposited by Buyer, with the Escrow Agent not later than two (2) business days after the Effective Date. The Additional Deposit shall be deposited with the Escrow Agent not later than two (2) business days after Buyer's receipt of written notice from Seller that Seller has completed the roof for the Building to be constructed pursuant to the Lease, together with reasonable evidence confirming said completion; provided however that in the event Seller has completed the roof prior to January 28, 2016, Buyer shall be required to deposit the Additional Deposit on February 1, 2016. In the event that Buyer fails to timely deposit either the Initial Deposit or the Additional Deposit with the Escrow Agent, Seller may terminate this Agreement, whereupon this Agreement shall be of no force and effect, the Escrow Agent shall pay the Earnest Money then existing in escrow to Seller, and neither party shall have any further rights or liabilities hereunder except as provided in Sections 2.2, 2.3 and 10.2 of this Agreement.

2.3    Termination During Due Diligence Period

In connection therewith, Buyer agrees that Buyer accepts Buyer's diligence and wishes to proceed with the acquisition of the Property, subject to all remaining obligations of Seller under this Agreement and Buyer's continuing rights to conduct diligence on the Property as set forth in this Agreement and also subject to Buyer's continuing rights to review and approve any revisions to the Lease.

In the event Buyer determines that the final Lease contains terms and conditions that are materially inconsistent with the terms of the Current Draft Lease, it shall provide written notice thereof to Seller indicating such materially inconsistent terms and indicating Buyer is terminating this Agreement on or before the expiration of the Extended Initial Due Diligence Period in which event the Earnest Money shall be promptly refunded to Buyer, and thereafter neither party hereto shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except for those matters which expressly survive termination of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement during the Extended Due Diligence Period and Buyer shall be obligated to proceed to Closing so long as:
i.    the Building has been constructed substantially in accordance with the Plans and Specifications (as defined in the Lease) for the Property (the "Final Plans"), provided that such Final Plans shall be materially consistent with the existing plans for that certain building constructed for Tenant in Shakopee, Minnesota (collectively, "Existing Plans") as modified by the Design Criteria (as defined in the development agreement in the Lease) attached hereto as Schedule 2.3(b) and site plan provided to Buyer by Seller attached hereto as Schedule 2.3(b) (collectively the "Design Criteria"), subject to such change orders agreed to by Seller and Tenant in compliance with the Lease (and provided to Buyer hereunder) and a temporary certificate of occupancy, final certificate of occupancy or the local equivalent (collectively, "C of O") has been issued for the Building, provided however that if installation of any of Tenant's personal property (including, without limitation, implementation of any associated racking plan), the issuance of Tenant specific permits, approvals or consents related to its specific use or the Tenant's build-out work or other alterations or improvements requested by the Tenant after approval of the Final Plans is necessary for the issuance of a C of O, then Seller may alternatively provide to Buyer (A) a written statement from Tenant, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer, stating that Substantial Completion has occurred and tenant has accepted the Building under the Lease, but only to the extent Tenant is required to deliver same pursuant to the Lease and (B) a certificate from the general contractor or a licensed architect or engineer of record confirming that all of the work has been constructed to Substantial Completion in accordance with the Final Plans, subject (if applicable) to any punch list items (described in Section 4.8 below) and further provided that Seller shall thereafter be obligated to obtain a final C of O once available (which obligation shall survive Closing, but in no event later than one (1) year after Closing);
ii.    the Commencement Date (as defined in the Lease) has occurred and Tenant has commenced paying rent, including 100% base rent and all required operating expenses;
iii    there has been no Material Adverse Change (A) identified in the updated Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (excluding for these purposes any material and adverse conditions that existed as of the date of such report and were not discovered by Buyer's consultants), or (B) in the condition of title as reflected in an updated Title Commitment and an updated "as built" Survey, if obtained by Buyer, which change was (I) first raised by the Title Company following the expiration of the Initial Due Diligence Period and prior to Closing, (II) not the result of Buyer's acts, and (III) and was not allowed under this Agreement; and
iv.    there has been no Material Adverse Condition identified in the roof report or property condition report and which differs from the Building contemplated by the Design Criteria as modified by the Final Plans.

As used in this Section 2.3(b)(iii) and (iv) or elsewhere in the Agreement, "Material Adverse Condition" or "Material Adverse Change" shall mean an adverse condition or change which (I) occurs after the Initial Due Diligence Period (except as otherwise provided in 2.3(b)(iii) above regarding environmental conditions) and which would cause Buyer to incur any cost to cure or correct or gives rise to any obligation of Buyer, as Landlord under the Lease, to correct or cure such condition or incur any costs in relation thereto, (II) allows Tenant to terminate the Lease or seek a permanent reduction in the amount of rent payable unless such right is waived or deemed waived by Tenant under the Lease, or (III) results in any portion of the Property not being in material compliance with all laws, statutes, codes, acts, ordinances, judgments, decrees, injunctions, rules, regulations, permits, licenses, authorizations, directions and requirements of all governments and governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Property and the operation of the Improvements thereon (collectively, the "Legal Requirements").
In the event Buyer reasonably asserts that any of the foregoing conditions in subsections (i)-(iv) above has not been satisfied after Seller delivers its Substantial Completion Notice and prior to the expiration of the Extended Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall provide, written notice to the Seller in sufficient detail to adequately identify the unsatisfied condition. In the event Seller agrees that the noticed condition has not been satisfied, Seller shall have a reasonable amount of time to commence to cure said condition and to diligently complete the cure within a reasonable amount of time, which commencement to cure shall not to exceed 30 days except with Buyer's consent (the "Cure Period"). In the event Seller fails to commence to cure said condition within such 30 day period (or longer as consented to by Buyer) and to complete the cure within a reasonable amount of time, Buyer may elect by written notice to Seller delivered no later than five (5) business days after such Cure Period either to: (x) waive the occurrence of the Material Adverse Condition, in which event the parties shall proceed to Closing and Seller shall have no liability with respect to the same or (y) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Earnest Money shall be promptly refunded to Buyer, and thereafter neither party hereto shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except for those matters which expressly survive termination of this Agreement. In the event that this Agreement terminates pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) as the result of a breach or default of the Seller, Seller also agrees to reimburse Buyer for its actual third party out of pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement in an amount not to exceed $100,000 (which obligation survives a termination of this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event if Buyer and Seller, both exercising good faith, mutually agree that a Material Adverse Condition or Material Adverse Change exists and Buyer elects to terminate, Seller shall have the right to void such termination on written notice to Buyer if Seller agrees to (A) cure or correct such Material Adverse Condition or Material Adverse Change post-Closing, and (B) escrow 125% of the amount that Buyer and Seller reasonably estimate is required in connection with such cure or correction for purposes of Seller completing same after the Closing. If Seller agrees to cure or correct such Material Adverse Condition or Material Adverse change post-closing, such agreement shall be set forth in an amendment to this Agreement (collectively, "Seller's Post-Closing Cure Obligations") and the escrow created shall be in addition to any Punch List Escrow established pursuant to Section 4.8 below.
In the event Seller disagrees that the condition has not been satisfied, that a Material Adverse Condition or Material Adverse Change exists or if the parties disagree on the cost to cure or correct a Material Adverse Condition or Material Adverse Change, Buyer and Seller shall meet in good faith within ten (10) days following Seller's receipt of Buyer's notice to discuss the status of the applicable condition and to attempt to resolve the Buyer's objection to same. In the event Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve any dispute concerning the satisfaction of the conditions in subsections (i)-(iv) above in the exercise of good faith efforts, Buyer and Seller shall submit the matter for dispute resolution in accordance with Section 10.20 below.
2.4    Buyer's Reliance on its Investigations and Release.  The provisions of this Section 2.4 shall survive indefinitely the Closing, close of escrow and recordation of the Deed, and shall not be deemed merged into any of the Closing documents.
(a)Buyer acknowledges and agrees, by consummating the Closing, it will be deemed to have been given a full opportunity to inspect and investigate each and every aspect of the Property, either independently or through agents of Buyer's choosing.

(a)Rent.

(e)Final Adjustment After Closing.  If final prorations cannot be made at Closing for any item being prorated under this Section 6.1, if any proration is estimated pending issuance of a final bill therefor, or if any of the aforesaid prorations were calculated inaccurately, then Buyer and Seller agree to allocate such items on a fair and equitable basis as soon as reasonably possible after the Closing Date, to the effect that income and expenses are received and paid by the parties on a cash basis with respect to their period of ownership. Payments in connection with the final adjustment shall be due within 30 days of written 

15






notice Seller shall have reasonable access to, and the right to inspect and audit, Buyer's books to confirm the final prorations.
