(8)Such amounts owed by Buyer or Seller under the terms of this Agreement but not yet paid as of the time of closing;

 

(9)Such other amounts as are customarily adjusted between parties to similar transactions in the local jurisdiction.







(b)Buyer shall give Seller a credit at the Closing for (i) the amount of funds remaining in any reserve accounts (including without limitation replacement reserve accounts, repair reserve accounts, tax escrow and insurance escrow accounts) held in escrow accounts by the Existing Lender with respect to the Existing Loan, the amount of which reserve account funds shall be calculated as of the Closing Date; provided such accounts shall be subject to proration to the extent they contain monies for obligations which accrued prior to the date of Closing.  



(c)Buyer shall receive a credit at closing in the amount of the principal balance of the Existing Loan, plus any interest accrued and other fees and charges measured as of the Closing Date.


(d)At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a schedule of all such past due, but uncollected rents owed by tenants.  Rents which are due and payable to Seller by any tenant but uncollected as of the Closing Date shall not be adjusted at the Closing.  All rents collected by Seller after the Closing Date shall be applied first to any due but unpaid rentals accruing subsequent to the Closing Date, and then to any rents past due for the calendar month in which the Closing Date occurs (subject to adjustment), and then to any rents due and unpaid prior to the Closing Date.  All rent collected after Closing for any period prior to the Closing shall belong to Seller, and if paid to Buyer, Buyer shall promptly send such rent to Seller less all reasonable expenses incurred by Buyer, if any, in regard to the collection thereof.  All rents collected by Seller, prior to Closing, for rental period(s) subsequent to the Closing shall be paid by Seller to Buyer at the Closing or deducted as an adjustment at Closing.  All rents collected by Buyer or Seller for rental periods after the Closing shall belong to Buyer, and if delivered to Seller, Seller shall promptly send such rent to Buyer.  Buyer's duty to forward payments of rent to Seller under the terms of this subparagraph (c) shall terminate for all payments received by Buyer more than six (6) months after the Closing.


(e)Any adjustment estimated at the Closing shall be finally adjusted as soon as practicable after the Closing.  Any error in the calculation of apportionments shall be corrected subsequent to the Closing with appropriate credits to be given based upon corrected adjustments; provided, however, that all adjustments (except as to errors caused by misrepresentation) shall be deemed final upon the expiration of one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date.


(f) In lieu of Seller delivering Security Deposit accounts, there shall be an adjustment at Closing of an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Security Deposits (with interest) shown on the updated Rent Roll, which amount shall be set aside by Buyer at Closing into a segregated account for security deposits in accordance with Maryland law; provided, however, if the amounts in the Security Deposit accounts are inconsistent with the amounts stated in the Leases, (including any Leases which were terminated or expired prior to Closing and for which no reconciliation of the Security Deposit has yet occurred with the tenant), the adjustment shall be for the amount stated in the Leases plus any interest which accrued, or should have accrued, thereon.


19.DAMAGE OR CONDEMNATION PRIOR TO THE CLOSING.  



(a)Damage.  If, at any time after the Effective Date and on or before the Closing Date, all or any portion of the Property is damaged, destroyed or rendered inoperative (collectively, the "Damage"), by fire, flood, natural elements or other causes, if such Damage is reasonably anticipated to exceed Twenty-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($25,000.00) Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of such Damage and then the following shall apply:

(1)If the Damage is not Material (hereinafter defined), Seller may elect to repair the Property to substantially the same or better condition than existed prior to the Damage, subject to the reasonable approval of Buyer.  If Seller does not elect to repair the Damage to the Property, Buyer shall close the purchase of the Property in its diminished condition on the Closing Date and receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of any deductible, and take an assignment of the insurance proceeds, in which event Seller shall assign such insurance proceeds to the Buyer, remit to Buyer any insurance proceeds received by Seller and shall permit Buyer to conduct any remaining settlement or other negotiations with the insurer as to the amount of proceeds payable on account of the Damage.



(2)If the Damage is Material, then Buyer, at its sole option, may elect either (i) to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller given at or prior to the Closing, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Earnest Money to Buyer and, upon Buyer's receipt thereof, neither party hereto shall have any further rights against, or obligations to, the other under this Agreement; or (ii) to agree to close the purchase of the Property in its diminished condition on the Closing Date and to receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of any deductible, and take an assignment of the insurance proceeds, in which event Seller shall assign such insurance proceeds to the Buyer, remit to Buyer any insurance proceeds received by Seller and shall permit Buyer to conduct any remaining settlement or other negotiations with the insurer as to the amount of proceeds payable on account of the Damage.



(3)For the purposes of this Section 19, Damage shall be deemed to be "Material" if the cost of repairing the Damage equals or exceeds Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00).  The cost of repairing the Damage shall be determined in the following manner: Within ten (10) days after the Damage occurs if in the reasonable estimation of Seller such Damage equals or exceeds One Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($125,000), each party shall designate an engineering firm to act on its behalf, and the firms designated shall promptly consult with each other in an attempt to mutually agree upon the cost of repairing the Damage.  If the firms cannot agree on the cost within the 10-day period after they have both been designated, they shall, within five days after such 10-day period, designate a third engineering firm, which shall be instructed to determine the cost of repairing the Damage within 10 days after its designation.  The cost of repairing the Damage as determined by the third engineering firm shall be conclusive.







(b)Condemnation.  If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any portion of the Property is taken by, or made subject to, or is threatened with, condemnation, eminent domain or other governmental acquisition proceedings, Seller shall provide Buyer with prompt written notice thereof, and if in Buyer's reasonable judgment such taking would permanently and materially impair the current use, operation, occupancy or income from the Property, then Buyer, at its sole option, may elect either:


(1)To terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller given at or prior to the Closing, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Earnest Money to Buyer and, upon Buyer's receipt thereof, neither party hereto shall have any further rights against, or obligations to, the other under this Agreement; or



(2)To agree to close and deduct from the Purchase Price an amount equal to any sum paid to Seller for such governmental acquisition, in which event Seller shall pay to Buyer any amounts received by Seller and assign, transfer and set over to Buyer all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to any awards which may in the future be made on account of such governmental acquisition.







If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any portion of the Property is taken by, or made subject to, condemnation, eminent domain or other governmental acquisition proceedings, and such taking would not permanently and materially impair the current use of the Property, then Buyer shall not have the option of terminating this Agreement and, at Closing, Buyer shall deduct from the Purchase Price an amount equal to any sum paid to Seller for such governmental acquisition, and Seller shall assign, transfer and set over to Buyer all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to any awards which may in the future be made on account of such governmental acquisition, which awards were not previously deducted from the Purchase Price or otherwise credited to Buyer.  In the event the Buyer does not, or is not entitled to, terminate this Agreement by virtue of such proceedings, the Buyer shall be entitled to conduct any remaining negotiations with the condemning authority as to the amount of the award payable on account of such proceedings.



 

20.BROKER'S COMMISSION.   Seller and Buyer each warrant and represent to the other that it has not used the services of any broker, agent or finder, other than Commercial Real Estate Investments, LLC (the "Broker") who would be entitled to a commission on account of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and each party agrees to defend, indemnify and save the other harmless from any commission or fee which  may be payable to any broker, agent or finder with whom the indemnifying party has dealt in connection with this Agreement.  However, Buyer hereby represents and warrants that it has not signed any listing agreement or other agreement with respect to commissions owed to by Ideal Realty Group ("IRG") at the time IRG was representing Seller and that the only agreement entered into by and between Buyer and IRG was a confidentiality agreement required by IRG before disseminating property information to Seller.  Seller agrees that any commissions owed to IRG are its sole responsibility.  Seller and Buyer each agrees to defend, indemnify and save the other harmless from any commission or fee which may be payable to any broker, agent or finder with whom the indemnifying party has dealt in connection with this Agreement. At Closing, Seller shall pay all commissions earned by the Broker and/or IRG.  The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing and any termination of this Agreement.  



21.DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.  


(a)Seller Default.  In the event Seller defaults in any of the terms, provision, agreements or covenants to be performed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, and fails to cure such default within five (5) days following written notice to Seller from Buyer, Buyer shall have the right to elect one of the following options as its sole and exclusive remedy hereunder:


(i)Buyer may waive any Seller default and proceed to Closing, in which event Seller shall perform to the extent it is able to do so.  Buyer may sue for specific performance to require Seller's performance in accordance with this Agreement or may sue for damages if specific performance is not legally available because of actions of Seller; or



(ii)If Buyer is unwilling to waive an uncured Seller default, Buyer may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in which event all the Deposits hereunder shall be promptly refunded to Buyer and thereupon this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.       






Buyer agrees that recourse for any liability of Seller under this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered simultaneously or in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited (a) solely to the Property, if Closing has not occurred, and (b) following the Closing, to the extent of the Purchase Price allocated and distributed to Seller.  Subject to applicable principles of fraudulent conveyance, in no event shall Buyer seek satisfaction for any obligation from any partners, members, managers, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents, legal representatives, successors or assigns of Seller, nor shall any of the foregoing have any personal liability for any such obligations of Seller.



(b)Default by Buyer.  In the event Buyer defaults in any of the terms, provision, agreements or covenants to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, and fails to cure such default within five (5) days following written notice to Buyer from Seller, Seller may terminate this Agreement and the Deposits shall be forfeited by Buyer and retained by Seller as fixed, agreed and liquidated damages.  


In that regard, Seller acknowledges and agrees that:

(i)the Deposits are a reasonable estimate of, and bear a reasonable relationship to, the damages suffered and costs incurred by Seller as a result of entering into this Agreement; 



(ii)the actual damages suffered and costs incurred by Seller as a result of such failure of Buyer to close under this Agreement would be extremely difficult and impractical to determine; 



(iii)Buyer seeks to limit its liability under this Agreement to the amount of the Deposits in the event this Agreement is terminated and the transaction contemplated by this Agreement does not close due to a default of Buyer under this Agreement; 


(iv)the Deposits shall be and constitute valid liquidated damages.  







22.RISK OF LOSS.  Until the Closing, the risk of loss or damage to all or any part of the Property, from fire or other casualty, or from condemnation, shall be borne by Seller, subject to the terms of this Agreement.



23.NOTICES.   Any notice required or permitted to be delivered under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (i) on the date of receipt, in the case of delivery by courier service or personal delivery, (ii) three (3) business days after being sent by the United States Postal Service, postage prepaid, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, (iii) the next business day if sent by a reputable national overnight express mail service or (iv) when sent if sent by facsimile during business hours but only if a written confirmation or transmittal report indicating that such facsimile was successfully sent has been received by the sender.

Buyer may assign its interest in this Agreement only to an entity that is wholly owned or wholly controlled by Buyer, provided, however, that such an assignment shall not be construed as a waiver or release of Buyer from any and all liability for the performance of all covenants and obligations to be performed by Buyer under this Agreement.


25.GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland applicable to contracts made and to be performed wholly within the State of Maryland without giving effect to the conflicts-of-laws principles thereof.

This Agreement may not be modified or amended except in, and by, a written instrument executed by the parties hereto.



27.WAIVER.  No waiver by either party of any failure or refusal of the other party to comply with any of the obligations of such party hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any other or subsequent failure or refusal so to comply.



28.ARTICLE HEADINGS.  The headings of the various sections of this Agreement have been inserted only for purposes of convenience, and are not part of this Agreement, and shall not be deemed in any manner to modify, explain, qualify or restrict any of the provisions of this Agreement.
