immediately preceding the exercise of any option herein, hold title to the Subject

survivorship and not as tenants in common; and Optionee; in the event of death of
either Owner, agree to pay any balance of the price due Owners under this contract

	 	m.	 	Opportunity for Like-Kind Exchange. If, within 30 days from

such agreement for the purpose of effecting a multiparty like-kind exchange

of the acquisition property; concurrently the difference between the agreed upon
value of the Subject Property and the agreed upon value of the exchange property
shall be paid to the Owners by the Optionee, or to the third-party by the Owners,
as circumstances dictate.
	 
	 	 	 	In the event the Owners fail to find a third party willing to enter into a

pursuant to §1031 of the IRC of 1986, as amended, after such period, the Optionee agrees
to deposit the purchase price of the Subject Property in an escrow or other account
pursuant to terms enabling the Owners to effect such an exchange. In the event that
Owners have not designated the property to be acquired by §1031 of the Internal Revenue
Code, as amended, to effect like- kind exchange treatment, then the Optionee shall
direct the closing agent to pay the balance of the purchase price to the Owners. In the
event that the Owners have designated the property to be acquired by them within the
identification period as required by §1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, to
effect like-kind exchange treatment, then the Optionee shall direct the escrow agent to
pay the third party the amount necessary to effect such an exchange and the balance, if
any, of the escrow account to the Owners.

Owners and Optionee shall appear at a mutually convenient closing date as agreed upon

 

 

by the parties. The Parties agree to equally share the costs of closing. The Parties shall split
equally the cost of the title insurance premium.

     4. RIGHT TO FARM PROPERTY DURING TERM OF AGREEMENT. The Owners shall have the exclusive use
and possession of the Subject Property including but not limited to the right to farm the same

purchase all or any portions of Subject Property and in the event that row crops are cultivated
upon said property, Owners shall have the first right to farm said property under terms and
conditions customary in the area.

     6. SUBSURFACE DRAINAGE. Optionee acknowledges its understanding that the Subject Property may
contain certain drainage lines providing surface and subsurface water drainage from other real
property. Optionee agrees to preserve such subsurface drainage or to provide suitable alternative
surface or subsurface drainage at Optionee’s cost on any property purchased pursuant to the terms
of this agreement.

     7. LICENSE TO OPTIONEE TO ENTER PROPERTY. The Owners hereby grant the Optionee a nonexclusive
license to enter the Subject Property from time to time during the option period for the sole and
exclusive purpose of allowing the Optionee to perform boundary and topographic survey work, and
conduct soil, engineering, and other tests on such land. The Optionee agrees to indemnify and hold
the Owners harmless from any and all damage caused by the Optionee or its agents on the land or
crops thereon. After performing its test and engineering work, the Optionee shall restore the land
to substantially the same condition as existed prior to the Optionee’s conduct thereon, and shall
be liable to the Owners for any damage remaining on the land, or crops or fixtures thereon. Such
license to go on the Subject Property shall be limited to the purpose of performing such survey
work and soil tests, engineering and other tests by the Optionee, and such license shall
automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect after the expiration of the term of
this option agreement.
