SECTION 3. TITLE EXAMINATION; OBJECTIONS TO TITLE

         (a) Purchaser agrees, promptly after the date hereof, to cause title to
the premises to be examined by a reputable title insurance company authorized to
do business in the State of Mississippi and agrees that promptly after Purchaser
receives the title report of such company, it will furnish to Seller's attorneys
a copy thereof together with a specification in writing of any objection to
title set forth in such report that Purchaser believes it is not required to
take title subject to. Seller may, but shall not be required to, bring any
action or proceedings or take such other action as Seller may deem appropriate
to render title to the premises marketable. Seller may, if it so elects, adjourn
the closing for a period or periods not to exceed 60 days in the aggregate for
such purpose.

         (b) If Seller shall be unable to convey a good and marketable title,
such that Purchaser's title insurance company will be willing to approve and
insure said title, or if Purchaser disapproves of said title pursuant to Section
1.02, then, except as hereinafter provided, Purchaser may terminate this
Contract by notice, in the manner hereinafter provided, delivered to the other
on or after the contract closing date or any adjourned closing date, in which
event the sole obligation of Seller shall be to refund to Purchaser the Deposit
with the interest earned thereon and pay to Purchaser the net cost actually
incurred by Purchaser for title examination without issuance of a policy, and,
upon the making of such refund, this Contract shall wholly cease and terminate
and neither party shall have any further claim against the other by reason of
this Contract, and the lien, if any, of the Purchaser against the premises shall
wholly cease, except that the provisions contained herein which provide that
they shall survive such termination will so survive.

         (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
Purchaser may accept such title as Seller may be able to convey, without
reduction of the purchase price or any credit or allowance against the same and
without any other liability on the part of Seller and if Purchaser elects to do
so, Seller shall have no right to terminate this Contract as herein above
provided. The acceptance of a deed by Purchaser shall be deemed to be a full
performance and discharge of every agreement and obligation on the part of
Seller to be performed pursuant to the provisions of this Contract, except
those, if any, which are herein specifically stated to survive the delivery of
the deed.

         (d) If a search of the title discloses judgments, bankruptcies or other
returns against other persons having names the same as or similar to that of
Seller, Seller will on request deliver to Purchaser an affidavit showing that
such judgments, bankruptcies or other returns are not against Seller.
