The term “Personal Property” also shall include any and all deposits, bonds or other security deposited or delivered by Seller with or to any and all governmental bodies, utility companies or other third parties in connection with the operation, ownership, maintenance, management, occupancy or improvement of the Real Property, if any.

(c)The “Intangible Personal Property,” being all, right, title and interest of Seller in and to all intangible personal property now or hereafter used in connection with the operation, ownership, maintenance, management, or occupancy of the Real Property, including without limitation: all trade names and trade-marks associated with the Real Property; the plans and specifications and other architectural, engineering and construction drawings for the Improvements; warranties; indemnities, guaranties; claims against third parties; all contract rights related to the construction, operation, ownership or management of the Real Property; applications, permits, approvals, developer or declarant rights, development rights and entitlements, all telephone exchange numbers and any prepaid impact fees or credits, and licenses (to the extent assignable); insurance proceeds and condemnation awards or claims thereto to be assigned to Purchaser hereunder; and all books and records relating to the Property.

ARTICLE 2.
INSPECTION

2.1Seller’s Delivery of Specified Documents. Seller has previously delivered copies of property information pursuant to that certain Access Agreement (the “Access Agreement”) entered into between Purchaser and Seller dated as of January 24, 2022 (the “Property Information”).

2.2Due Diligence. Commencing on the date of the Access Agreement, Purchaser shall have through the last day of the Due Diligence Period in which to examine, inspect, and investigate the Property and, in Purchaser’s sole and absolute judgment and discretion, to determine whether the Property is acceptable to Purchaser. Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of termination to Seller on or before the last day of the Due Diligence Period. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Paragraph 2.2, the Earnest Money shall be refunded to Purchaser immediately upon request, and all further rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall terminate, subject to the Surviving Obligations, as defined herein.

Purchaser shall have reasonable access to the Property subject to the terms of the Lease, but in any event upon not less than 48 hours prior written notice to Seller (which may be given by email) for the purpose of conducting surveys and environmental inspections and tests, and any other inspections, studies, or tests reasonably required by Purchaser; provided, however in no event shall Purchaser perform any invasive testing without the prior written consent of Seller. Purchaser shall keep the Property free and clear of any liens and will indemnify, defend, and hold Seller harmless from all claims asserted by third parties against Seller to recover for personal injury or property damage as a result of Purchaser or its vendors’ entry onto the Property. In connection with Purchaser’s investigations, including without limitation any contact with the Tenant, Seller shall at all times have the right to have a representative of Seller present. Subject to the proviso below, if any such entry disturbs the Property, Purchaser will restore the Property to the same condition as existed immediately prior to Purchaser’s inspection. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Purchaser and its agents, employees, and representatives shall have a continuing right of reasonable access to the Property during the pendency of this Agreement for the purpose of examining and making copies of Property Information in Seller’s possession and Purchaser shall have the right to conduct a “walk-through” of the Property prior to the Closing. In the course of its investigations, Purchaser may make inquiries to third parties, including, without limitation, lenders, contractors, property managers, parties to service contracts, municipal, local and other governmental officials and representatives, and Seller consents to such inquiries, but in no event shall Purchaser engage government officials and/or representatives with respect to any matter that may impact the current zoning, nor shall Purchaser make application for any changes to the Property including, without limitation, with respect to zoning, special use permits or licensing unless Seller provides its prior written consent. In the event of any damage to the Property caused by Purchaser or its agents, employees or representatives, Purchaser shall indemnify against and hold Seller harmless from any claim for liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred) damages or injuries arising out of or resulting from Purchaser’s 

4

AmericasActive:17009577.1



 

or its agents’ employees’ or representatives’ entry onto, inspection or testing of, or use of the Property; provided, however, in no event shall Purchaser be liable for, and any such indemnity from Purchaser will not include any claims to the extent caused by, (i) pre-existing conditions (except to the extent exacerbated by the negligence of Purchaser or Purchaser’s agents) and/or (ii) the fraud, negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or any of Seller’s members, employees, licensees, contractors, agents and invitees, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such obligation to indemnify and hold harmless Seller shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement. Purchaser shall maintain commercial general liability and property damage insurance, or shall self-insure, in an amount equal to or greater than $1,000,000 and in form and substance adequate to insure against all liability of Purchaser and its consultants, and each of its agents, employees or contractors, arising out of the inspections or testing. Evidence of such insurance coverage shall be produced upon request from Seller and, if required by Seller, Seller shall be named as an additional named insured on Purchaser’s insurance certificates prior to Purchaser’s (or its agent’s) entry upon the Property. All inspections and testing shall occur at reasonable times agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser and shall be conducted so as not to interfere unreasonably with use of the Property by Seller or its tenants. The obligations of the Purchaser under this Section 2.2 shall survive the termination of the Agreement (“Surviving Obligations”).

2.3Service Contracts. On or prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing as to which Service Contracts, if any, Purchaser will assume (the “Accepted Service Contracts”). Purchaser will assume the obligations arising from and after the Closing Date under those Service Contracts that are not in default as of the Closing Date and which Purchaser has elected to assume on or prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. Seller shall terminate at Closing all service contracts that are not so assumed and if Purchaser fails to timely provide notice of acceptance, Purchaser shall be deemed to not have assumed any service contracts. Seller shall be solely responsible for the payment of any termination fees, penalties or other related expenses due and owing under any of the Service Contracts in connection with the termination of same, said payments to be made to any such Service Contract provider on or prior to the Closing Date.

ARTICLE 3.
TITLE REVIEW

3.1Delivery of Title Commitment and Survey. Seller shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Purchaser a current, effective commitment for title insurance (the “Title Commitment”) issued by the Title Company, in the amount of the Purchase Price with Purchaser as the proposed insured, and accompanied by true, complete, and legible copies of all documents referred to in the Title Commitment. Purchaser may elect to obtain a current ALTA/ACSM 2021 Minimum Detail Requirements survey of the Property (the “Survey”) prepared by a surveyor acceptable to Purchaser certified to Purchaser, the Title Company and such other parties as designated by Purchaser and including the table items requested by Purchaser. Purchaser shall also have the right to obtain Uniform Commercial Code searches in the name of Seller and the Property issued by the Title Company or a search company acceptable to Purchaser (“UCC Searches”).

3.2Title Review and Cure. During the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall review title to the Property as disclosed by the Title Commitment. Seller will use good faith efforts to cooperate with Purchaser in curing any objections Purchaser may have to title to the Property; 

5

AmericasActive:17009577.1



 

provided, however, Seller shall have no obligation to cure title objections except liens of an ascertainable amount created by, under or through Seller, which liens Seller shall cause to be released or, if consented to by Purchaser, insured over at the Closing. Seller further agrees to remove any exceptions or encumbrances to title which are created by, under or through Seller after the date of this Agreement without Purchaser’s consent. Purchaser may terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money if the Title Company revises the Title Commitment after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period to add or modify exceptions if such additions or modifications are material and adverse to Purchaser’s intended use of the Property and are not removed by the Closing Date; provided, however, that any such termination must be delivered on or prior to the date that is five (5) business days after receipt of the revised Title Commitment. The term “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean: the specific exceptions in the Title Commitment that the Title Company has not agreed to insure over or remove from the Title Commitment as of the end of the Due Diligence Period and that Seller is not required to remove as provided above, acts done or suffered through Purchaser, and real estate taxes not yet due and payable.

3.3Delivery of Title Policy at Closing. As a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to close, the Escrow Agent shall deliver to Purchaser at Closing an ALTA Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (the “Title Policy”), with extended coverage issued by the Title Company as of the date and time of the recording of the Deed, in the amount of the Purchase Price, insuring Purchaser as owner of fee simple title to the Property, and subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. Any endorsements required by Purchaser with the exception of extended coverage shall be the Purchaser’s obligation to obtain. Seller shall execute at Closing an owner’s affidavit at Closing in form reasonably satisfactory to Seller and the Title Company and sufficient to delete the exceptions for mechanics liens, parties in possession except for the Tenant under the Lease and similar matters.

3.4Title and Survey Costs. The cost of the Survey shall be paid by Purchaser. The premium for the Title Policy, including the premium for extended coverage, shall be split equally by Seller and Purchaser. The cost of the title exam and search shall be paid by Seller. The cost of any endorsements to the Title Policy to cure title objections shall be paid by Seller. All other endorsements shall be paid by Purchaser. The cost of the UCC Searches shall be paid by Purchaser.

3.5Violations. In the event that Seller receives any written notification from a governmental or public authority (or a third party acting under the authority of a governmental or public authority) notifying Seller that the Property is in violation of any applicable fire, health, building, use, occupancy, zoning or other applicable laws, then (i) if the estimated cost to cure such violation is $100,000 or less (as reasonably determined by the parties), Seller shall cure such violation or, if such cannot reasonably be cured prior to the Closing Date, give Purchaser a credit for an amount reasonably estimated by the parties to cure such violation, and (ii) if the estimated cost to cure such violation is greater than $100,000 (as reasonably determined by the parties) or a “Non-Monetary Violation” (as hereinafter defined), then Seller shall, in written notice to Purchaser prior to the Closing Date, elect to either (A) cure such violation or, if such cannot reasonably be cured prior to the Closing Date and is not a Non-Monetary Violation, provide Purchaser with a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in the amount equal to the estimated cost to cure such violation, as reasonably determined by the parties, or (B) not to cure such violation. In the event Seller elects to (and does prior to Closing) cure any such violation or provide Purchaser with a credit against the Purchase Price as specified in subsections (i) or (ii)(A) above, then Purchaser 

6

AmericasActive:17009577.1



 

shall proceed with the Closing (and in the event of a credit, accept title to the Property subject to such violation as a Permitted Exception). In the event Seller elects not to cure such violation pursuant to subsection (ii)(B) above, then Purchaser shall elect to either (X) proceed with Closing and accept title to the Property subject to the applicable violation as a Permitted Exception, or (Y) terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser plus additional cash to reimburse Purchaser for its documented out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, but in no event shall such additional cash reimbursement payment ever exceed $50,000, and neither party hereto shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except to the extent that any right, obligation or liability set forth herein expressly survives termination of this Agreement. As used herein, a “Non-Monetary Violation” is a violation of any applicable fire, health, building, use, occupancy, zoning or other applicable laws that cannot easily be cured by the expenditure of money and affects the integrity, viability, prominence, use or income producing capability of the Property, including, without limitation, (i) the reduction of parking at the Property, (ii) the reduction or other adverse impact to any point of ingress or egress to the Property, or (iii) any civil or criminal action involving the Property.

3.6Estoppel Condition. Purchaser shall have received, on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, an estoppel certificate dated a date no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to Closing, from Tenant under the Lease (the “Estoppel Condition”), which estoppel certificate shall meet the following conditions: (a) it is: (i) substantially in the form attached as Exhibit G to the Lease; (b) it shall not disclose any material non-monetary or monetary defaults by Seller or tenant under the applicable Lease; and (c) it shall not contain any information which is inconsistent with the information contained in the Lease or the representations contained herein. Seller shall promptly forward to Purchaser such estoppel certificate as and when the same is received. In the event that the Estoppel Condition has not been timely satisfied in all respects, then Purchaser may, by giving Seller written notice at any time after the occurrence of any failure to satisfy the Estoppel Condition, and Seller shall have ten (10) business days to cure such failure. If upon the expiration of said cure period Seller has been unable to satisfy the Estoppel Condition, Buyer may terminate this Agreement and receive refund of any Earnest Money made by Purchaser and any third-party out-of-pocket expenses incurred during the Due Diligence Period not to exceed $50,000, and neither party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder other than those obligations which survive termination.

ARTICLE 4.
OPERATIONS AND RISK OF LOSS

4.1Ongoing Operations. During the pendency of this Agreement:

(a)Operation of the Property. Seller shall cause the Property to be maintained in substantially its current condition.

7

AmericasActive:17009577.1



 

(b)Maintenance of Insurance. Seller shall continue to carry its existing insurance through the Closing Date, and shall not allow any breach, default, termination, cancellation or lapse of such insurance policies or agreements to occur or exist.

(c)New Contracts. Without Purchaser’s prior written consent in each instance (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Seller will not enter into or amend, terminate, waive any default under, or grant concessions regarding any contract or agreement that will be an obligation affecting the Property or binding on the Purchaser after the Closing except contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business that are terminable without cause or penalty on 30-days’ notice (and Seller agrees to terminate any such contracts by the Closing Date unless otherwise requested by Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period) (“New Contracts”). Seller shall be solely responsible for the payment of any termination fees, penalties or other related expenses due and owing under any of the New Contracts in connection with the termination of same, said payments to be made to any such New Contract provider on or prior to the Closing Date

(d)Leasing Arrangements. Seller will not enter into any lease or other occupancy agreement without Purchaser’s prior written consent. Seller shall not amend, modify or terminate the Lease without Purchaser’s prior written consent (such consent in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion).

(e)Removal and Replacement of Tangible Personal Property. Seller will not remove any Tangible Personal Property except as may be required for necessary repair or replacement, and replacement shall be of equal quality and quantity as existed as of the time of its removal.

(f)Maintenance of Permits. Seller shall continue to maintain in existence all licenses, permits and approvals, if any, in its name (or in such affiliates’ name, if applicable) necessary or reasonably appropriate to the ownership, operation or improvement of the Property and in effect as of the Date of this Agreement.

(g)Taxes. Seller shall pay or cause to be paid all tax and similar obligations of the Seller and the Property to the extent relating to the period of time on or before the Closing.

(h)Enforcement of Lease. Seller will enforce its rights and remedies under the Lease, including without limitation, using diligence and good faith efforts to cause Tenant to complete any Deferred Maintenance (as defined herein) work for which Tenant is responsible, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense; provided, however, as it relates to Seller enforcing its remedies under the Lease; provided, however, in no event shall this covenant be construed to require Seller to default Tenant, commence litigation against Tenant or take any act that would put Seller’s existing loan in jeopardy.

4.2Damage. Risk of loss up to and including the Closing Date shall be borne by Seller. In the event of any material damage to or destruction of the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by notice to Seller given within ten (10) business days after Seller notifies Purchaser of such damage or destruction (and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give Purchaser the full ten (10) business day period to make such election): (i) 

8

AmericasActive:17009577.1



 

terminate this Agreement and the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser, or (ii) proceed under this Agreement, receive any insurance proceeds due Seller as a result of such damage or destruction and assume responsibility for such repair, and Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing for any deductible, uninsured or coinsured amount under said insurance policies. If Purchaser elects (ii) above and to proceed to Closing, Purchaser may extend the Closing Date for up to an additional thirty (30) day period in which to obtain insurance settlement agreements with Seller’s insurers, and Seller agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in obtaining the insurance proceeds and such agreements from Seller’s insurers. If the Property is not materially damaged, then Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement, but Seller shall, at its cost, repair the damage before the Closing in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser or if repairs cannot be completed before the Closing, credit Purchaser at Closing for the reasonable cost to complete the repair. “Material damage” and “Materially damaged” means damage (x) reasonably exceeding ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price to repair, or (y) which, would permit the Tenant to terminate the Lease.

4.3Condemnation. In the event any proceedings in eminent domain are contemplated, threatened (in writing) or instituted by anybody having the power of eminent domain with respect to the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may, at its option, by notice to Seller given within ten (10) business days after Seller notifies Purchaser of such proceedings (and if necessary the Closing Date shall be extended to give Purchaser the full ten (10) business day period to make such election): (i) terminate this Agreement and the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser, or (ii) proceed under this Agreement, in which event Seller shall, at the Closing, assign to Purchaser its entire right, title and interest in and to any condemnation award, and Purchaser shall have the sole right during the pendency of this Agreement to negotiate and otherwise deal with the condemning authority in respect of such matter.

6.1Prorations.

(a)Except as expressly set forth below, the following items shall be prorated as of 12:01 a.m. prevailing Eastern Time on the Closing Date, on the basis of a 365-day year, with Purchaser deemed the owner of the Assets on the entire Closing Date: (i) real estate taxes, including refunds with respect thereto, if any; (ii) rent, additional rent, escalations, and other amounts paid by Tenant under the Lease; (iii) water, sewer and utility charges; (iv) charges under any Accepted Service Contracts assumed by Purchaser; and (v) any other expenses relating to the Property which are customarily adjusted at settlement.

Therefore, there shall be no credit to Purchaser for fixed rent collected in the month of Closing, it being understood that fixed rent collected in the month of Closing relates to rent for the time period 60 days prior to Closing. As such, credit shall be given to Seller at Closing for fixed rent collected from Tenant which is calculated using (i) the number of days in the month of Closing that Seller owned the Property, plus (ii) to the extent such amounts remain outstanding at date of closing, an amount equal to any rent due and payable for such month that falls 60 days prior to closing, (iii) plus the number of days in the month prior to Closing. By way of example, if the Closing Date occurs on March 15, 2022, then with respect to the rent payment received by Seller on or about March 1, 2022 (which relates to fixed rent due under the Lease for the month of January, 2022), Seller shall receive a credit for the period between the first day of January 2022 and the Closing Date, plus the month of February. This example assumes that rent due and payable for the month of December has been collected. All rents received by Purchaser after Closing shall be solely for the account of Purchaser, even if relating to rent due for periods prior to the Closing Date. Credit shall be given to Purchaser at Closing for the Tenant’s security deposit (including any interest required to be paid to Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Lease or by law), if any.

(c)Additional Rent. Two (2) business days prior to Closing Seller shall deliver a preliminary reconciliation reflecting additional rent applicable to the 2021 lease year and expenses incurred applicable to the same period (such as operating expense and real estate tax reimbursements and the like), calculated on a cash basis. Seller will receive a credit at Closing for any amount reflected on the reconciliation as due from Tenant and will credit Purchaser for any amount reflected on the reconciliation as due to Tenant. The parties shall reconcile such amounts 

12

AmericasActive:17009577.1



 

within 90 days after Closing. In addition, for the period from January 1, 2022 through the date of Closing, in the event that there shall be any other charges under the Lease which, although relating to a period prior to Closing, do not become due and payable until after Closing or are paid prior to Closing but are subject to adjustment after Closing, then any rents or charges of such type received by Purchaser or its agents or Seller or its agents subsequent to Closing, including payments received from tenants as a result of true-ups or the obligation to reimburse tenants for overpayments shall, to the extent applicable to a period extending through the Closing, be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of Closing and Seller’s portion thereof shall be remitted promptly to Seller by Purchaser or to Purchaser by Seller, as the case may be.

(d)Meter Readings. To the extent feasible, arrangements shall be made for the reading of meters for all utilities on or about the Closing Date. If such meter readings take place on a date other than the Closing Date, a pro rata adjustment will be made when the bills are received, such adjustment to be made on a day-to-day basis, with Seller being responsible for any time periods prior to the Closing Date and with Purchaser being responsible for any time periods on and after the Closing Date.

6.2Real Estate Taxes. Seller shall pay any real estate and personal property taxes and assessments with respect to the Property which are due and payable on or prior to the Closing Date. For clarification, Seller shall, at or prior to Closing, pay or credit Purchaser for all 2021 tax year real estate taxes (which are due and payable in calendar year 2022). There shall be a proration of 2022 tax year real estate taxes for the period from January 1, 2022, through the date of the Closing (the “Proration Period”) based on the amount of the 2021 tax year real estate taxes. Real estate taxes shall be reprorated upon issuance of the final tax bill. If, after the Closing, Purchaser receives (in the form of a rent) any amounts applicable to real estate taxes for the Proration Period, then Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for such closing credit based upon the amount actually received from Tenant.

(a)Assessments for Public Improvements; Real Estate Tax Settlement Agreement. In the event work for any public improvements with respect to the Property is begun before the Closing, Seller shall be responsible for the assessments and charges that are imposed before Closing and Purchaser shall be responsible for the assessments and charges that become due and payable after Closing. If at the time of Closing, the Property is affected by an assessment or assessments which are or may become payable in installments (including without limitation that certain Real Estate Tax Settlement Agreement), Seller shall be responsible for the installments that are due and payable before Closing and Purchaser shall be responsible for the assessments and charges that become due and payable after Closing. Amounts paid by Seller for the month of Closing shall be prorated as of the Closing Date and credited to Seller on the settlement statement. Amounts prepaid by Seller for months following the month of Closing shall be credited to Seller on the settlement statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller represents, to the best of Seller’s knowledge, that Seller that Seller has received no written notice of public improvements nor have any public improvements begun with respect to the Property.

(b)Post-Closing Adjustments. If any of the items described in this Article 12 cannot be apportioned at the Closing because of the unavailability of the amounts which are to be apportioned or otherwise, or are incorrectly apportioned at Closing or subsequent thereto, such items shall be apportioned or reapportioned, as the case may be, as soon as practicable after the 

13

AmericasActive:17009577.1



 

Closing Date or the date such error is discovered, as applicable, but in no event later than the date that is 120 days after the Closing Date unless otherwise set forth herein. The provisions of this Section 6.2 shall survive Closing.

6.3Sales, Transfer, and Documentary Taxes. Seller shall pay documentary, transfer, deed or similar taxes and fees imposed in connection with this transaction under applicable state or local law.

6.4Commissions. Seller and Purchaser represent and warrant each to the other that they have not dealt with any real estate broker, sales person or finder in connection with this transaction other than Andrew Sanquist of Newmark (“Broker”). Seller shall be responsible for the payment of a commission due Broker to be paid pursuant to a separate agreement with Seller. In the event of any claim for broker’s or finder’s fees or commissions by Broker in connection with the negotiation, execution or consummation of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any such claim made by Broker based upon any statement, representation or agreement of Seller. Except as expressly set forth above with respect to Broker, in the event of any claim for broker’s or finder’s fees or commissions (other than a claim made by Broker) in connection with the negotiation, execution or consummation of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, each party shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any such claim based upon any statement, representation or agreement of such party.

6.5Roof Warranty Transfer. At Closing Seller agrees to provide a credit to Purchaser equal to $14,574 for the transfer and/or extension of a warranty for the roof.

6.6Deferred Maintenance. Purchaser has identified three areas of potential deferred maintenance at the Property, as further set forth on Schedule 6.6, attached hereto (“Deferred Maintenance”). At or prior to Closing, for each of the three identified areas Seller shall (a) deliver to Purchaser evidence reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser that the Tenant is responsible for the cost of all or a part of the Deferred Maintenance, or (b) provide a credit to Purchaser equal to the cost allocated to the applicable line item for Deferred Maintenance on Schedule 6.6.

AmericasActive:17009577.1



 

7.3Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties set forth in this Article 7 are made as of the date of this Agreement and are remade as of the Closing Date and shall not be deemed to be merged into or waived by the instruments of Closing, but shall survive the Closing for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days (“Survival Period”). After the Closing, in the event of any breach of any of the covenants, representations, warranties or indemnities hereunder or under any other agreement, document, certificate or instrument delivered by the parties (or affiliate thereof) which survive the Closing for any period of time (a “Post-Closing Default”), each party shall have all remedies existing under applicable law with respect to such Post-Closing Default; provided, however, in no event shall either party ever be entitled to recover from the other party (i) unless damages are in excess of Fifty Thousand Dollars in the aggregate ($50,000.00), nor (ii) damages in excess of Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000.00) (the “Cap”).

ARTICLE 8.
DEFAULT

8.1Purchaser’s Default. If the transaction contemplated hereby does not close by reason of a default by Purchaser in any of the terms hereof (as opposed to by reason of failure of any contingency to Purchaser’s obligations hereunder), and such default is not cured within five (5) business days after written notice of such default is given by Seller to Purchaser, then Seller shall, at its sole option and in lieu of any and all other legal and equitable remedies which Seller may have, receive all Earnest Money deposited as liquidated damages and this shall be Seller’s sole remedy for Purchaser’s default. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that actual damages in the event of a default by Purchaser will be difficult to ascertain, and that Seller’s receipt of the Earnest Money as liquidated damages represents the parties’ best estimate of such damages.

8.2Seller’s Default. In the event that Seller shall fail to consummate this Agreement for any reason, except Purchaser’s default or a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the provisions hereof, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy, at law or in equity, to either (i) terminate this Agreement and receive refund of any Earnest Money made by Purchaser and any third-party out-of-pocket expenses incurred during the Due Diligence Period not to exceed $75,000, and neither party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder other than those obligations which survive termination; or (ii) pursue the remedy of specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement.
