Each covenants and agrees to defend, indemnify and save the other harmless from and against any actions, damages, real estate commissions, fees, costs and/or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), resulting or arising from any commissions, fees, costs and/or expenses due to any real estate brokers or agents, other than as identified herein, because of the purchase and sale of the Property and the execution and delivery of this Agreement, due to the acts of the indemnifying party.

 

Section 3.      Proration of Expenses/Payment of Costs.

 

(a)     Seller and Buyer agree that all items of income and expense with respect to the Property shall be prorated as of the date of Closing, including, without limitation, real property taxes, utilities and any other assumed liabilities, if any. The Closing Date shall be treated as the “Seller’s day” for purposes of prorations. Seller shall pay the fees and costs of any counsel representing Seller in connection with this transaction. The Buyer shall pay for (i) deed stamps, surtax and other conveyance fees or taxes which become payable by reason of the transfer of the Property; (ii) the fees for recording the Deed; (iii)  the cost of any update to the Survey, (iv) all costs with respect to the Title Company’s preparation and issuance of the Title Commitment and Title Policy (as such terms are defined in Section 5 of this Agreement), including, without limitation, the premium for the Title Policy (v) the costs of Buyer’s investigations of the Property, (vi) the fees and costs of any counsel representing Buyer in connection with this transaction. All costs and expenses incident to this transaction and Closing and not specifically described above shall be paid by the party incurring same.

 

(b)     Accrued general real estate taxes for the year of Closing not yet due and payable shall be prorated as of the Closing Date on the basis of the actual taxes for the year, if known, or if unknown, the most recent ascertainable taxes, but in either case based on the maximum allowable discount for early payment. Buyer shall pay all such taxes when they become due and payable and, promptly thereafter, the parties shall re-prorate taxes with, if any amount is due, an appropriate payment from one party to the other on the basis of the amount of taxes then due and payable. Prior to or at Closing, Seller shall pay or have paid all real estate tax bills which are due and payable prior to or on the Closing Date and shall furnish evidence of such payment to Buyer. Special assessments which are confirmed or become a lien prior to Closing and pending assessments for work substantially completed as of Closing shall be credited to Buyer at Closing.

Section 6.      Title/Survey Review. Buyer shall have until thirty (30) days after the Effective Date within which to review the Title Commitment and Survey (“Title Review Period”) and to deliver any written objections to the form and/or content of the Title Commitment and the Survey to Seller (the “Title Objection Notice”). Any objections not made prior to the expiration of the Title Review Period shall be deemed to be waived by Buyer and all matters disclosed on Schedule B-II of the Title Commitment and on the Survey, to which no objection is made, shall be deemed “Permitted Exceptions”. Anything to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, Buyer shall have no right to make objection to the matters set forth on Exhibit “B” attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, and all such matters shall be “Permitted Exceptions”. Seller shall have the right at its option, but not the obligation, to cure said title and survey matters objected to in the Title Objection Notice, or agree to cure such matters, in a manner reasonably acceptable to Buyer and the Title Company prior to Closing. Seller shall have five (5) Business Days after receipt of Buyer’s Title Objection Notice to notify Buyer in writing (“Seller’s Title Response Notice”) whether it has elected to cure such title and survey matters, or has elected not to cure any such title or survey matters. If Seller fails to send a Seller’s Title Response notice within said five (5) Business Day period, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure any title or survey matters contained in Buyer’s Title Objection Notice. If, pursuant to Seller’s Title Response Notice or Seller’s failure to timely deliver the Seller’s Title Response Notice, Seller has elected (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure any one or more of such title or survey matters, then Buyer, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, may terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration of the Examination Period, in which case the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned to Buyer. If Seller fails to timely deliver a Seller’s Title Response Notice or if Seller does not elect to cure, or agree to cure, any such title and survey matters as provided herein, and if Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement as provided herein, such matters that Seller does not elect to cure or agree to cure shall be deemed waived by Buyer and classified as Permitted Exceptions. Buyer shall have an additional five (5) day period in which to object to any revisions or endorsements to the Title Commitment and Survey as may be issued from time to time to the extent that such revisions or endorsements contain title and survey matters first appearing of record after the original Title Commitment date that are not otherwise Permitted Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller will satisfy all customary Schedule B-I requirements applicable to Seller relating to mechanics liens, parties in possession, and the organization, existence, and authority of Seller, shall pay and discharge all liens and mortgages arising out of the deliberate acts of Seller, at Closing; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not, in any event, apply to any of the Code Violations (as defined below) it being agreed by Buyer that Seller shall have absolutely no obligation to cure, satisfy or otherwise discharge the Code Violations at or prior to Closing.

 

Section 7.      Examination Period.

 

(a)     Access. During the Examination Period, Buyer, its agents and/or representatives shall have the right to enter upon the Real Property for the purpose of inspecting, examining, performing tests and surveying the Real Property to determine if the Property is suitable to Buyer, all of which inspections and investigations shall be undertaken at Buyer’s sole cost and expense. After completing its inspection of the Real Property, Buyer shall, at its sole cost and expense, repair any damage it has caused to the Real Property. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any damages resulting from the acts of Buyer, its agents or representatives in exercising its rights under this Section 7. All inspections shall be conducted during normal business hours with no less than twenty four (24) hours prior notice to Seller, and Buyer shall coordinate any on-site inspections of the Property with Seller so that Seller may have a representative present at all times desired by Seller. All inspections of the Real Property shall be conducted in such a manner as to reasonably avoid any interference with any business operations on the Real Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event whatsoever shall Buyer perform any invasive testing without the prior written consent of Seller, which may be given or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion (provided, however, in no event shall a Phase I environmental test be considered invasive for the purposes of this Agreement). All information obtained by Buyer during the Examination Period and thereafter until Closing shall be kept confidential except for disclosures to such professionals and mortgage lenders as may be required in connection with Buyer’s investigation and acquisition of the Real Property or as otherwise required by law. If Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement as expressly permitted in this Agreement, then it shall deliver to Seller copies of all inspection reports pertaining to the Property. Buyer’s obligations to restore the Real Property, indemnify Seller and return materials to Seller under this Section 7 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

(b)     Re-Plat of Property. Buyer hereby agrees and acknowledges that Seller has informed Buyer that the owner of certain real property adjacent to the Real Property (the “Adjacent Owner”) is in the process of re-platting such real property (such property, the “Adjacent Parcel”). In connection, and together with, Adjacent Owner’s efforts to re-plat the Adjacent Parcel, Adjacent Owner has agreed to re-plat all of the Real Property described on Exhibit “A” attached hereto into one (1) lot (the “Re-Plat”). In connection with the Re-Plat, Seller may be required to expend certain amounts whether to reimburse Adjacent Owner for its costs in connection with the Re-Plat or to satisfy any conditions that may be required by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority (the “Re-Plat Expenses”). Seller shall pay any and all Re-Plat Expenses as they become due; provided, however, that if Buyer delivers the Approval Notice pursuant to Section 8 below, then, at Closing, Buyer shall reimburse Seller for a portion of the Re-Plat Expenses equal to Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($5,000.00). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the successful completion or approval of the Re-Plat shall, in no way, be a Condition Precedent pursuant to this Agreement and Buyer’s obligation to proceed to Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall in no way be contingent on, or otherwise affected by, the status, approval or disapproval of the Re-Plat.

 

(c)     Code Violations; 40/50 Year Recertification. Seller hereby discloses to Buyer that the Improvements and/or the Property may be subject to various Miami-Dade County and/or City of Miami code enforcement violations and the Improvements are further pending the 40/50 year recertification (collectively, the “Code Violations”). Buyer hereby agrees and acknowledges that Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever with respect to the Code Violations and, to the extent Buyer proceeds to Closing, Buyer shall accept the Property in its current “as-is” and “where is” condition subject to any and all Code Violations and Buyer shall be solely responsible for any and all fines assessed against the Property in connection therewith. Without limiting the generality of Section 7(e) below, Buyer hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (i) Buyer will accept the Improvements in their current “as-is” and “where is” condition subject to all faults which shall include, without limitation, the Code Violations; (ii) Seller shall have no obligation to cure, satisfy or remedy any of the Code Violations and/or pay any fines assessed against the Property due to, or emanating from, the Code Violations; and (iii) Buyer hereby waives any and all claims that Buyer may have against Seller or Seller’s partners, shareholders, members, officers, directors, agents, employees, property manager, controlling persons and/or affiliates in any way relating (whether directly or indirectly) to or arising from the Code Violations.

 

(d)     Release. Buyer acknowledges that it will have the opportunity to inspect the Property during the Examination Period, and during such period, observe its physical characteristics and existing conditions and the opportunity to conduct such investigation and study on and of the Property and adjacent areas as Buyer deems necessary, and Buyer, on behalf of itself and its agents, employees, officers, directors, partners, controlling persons and affiliates and their successors and assigns, hereby forever releases and discharges Seller and its partners, shareholders, members, officers, directors, agents, employees, property manager, controlling persons and affiliates from (i) responsibility or claims arising out of or related to the condition (including the presence in the soil, air, structures, and surface and subsurface waters, of hazardous materials), valuation, salability, or utility of the Property, or its suitability for any purpose whatsoever, (ii) any claims Buyer or its successors and assigns may have against Seller now or in the future based on any environmental law or the presence of hazardous materials or any other pollutants or contamination on the Property and (iii) any claims Buyer or its successors and assigns may have against Seller now or in the future based on the Code Violations. The foregoing release includes claims of which Buyer is presently unaware or which Buyer does not presently suspect to exist which, if known by Buyer, would materially affect Buyer’s release to Seller, provided, however, the foregoing release shall not be applicable to Seller’s representations to the contrary as expressly set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 7(d) shall survive Closing.

(e)     AS-IS. EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH HEREIN, IT IS UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT THE SELLER DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS AS TO TAX CONSEQUENCES, PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, VALUE, OPERATING HISTORY, OR ANY OTHER MATTER OR THING RELATING TO OR AFFECTING THE PROPERTY. BUYER AGREES THAT WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTY AND EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH HEREIN, BUYER HAS NOT RELIED UPON AND WILL NOT RELY UPON, EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF SELLER OR SELLER’S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES. BUYER REPRESENTS THAT IT IS A KNOWLEDGEABLE BUYER OF REAL ESTATE AND THAT BUYER IS RELYING SOLELY ON ITS OWN EXPERIENCE AND ITS OWN CONSULTANTS, AND BUYER, AS OF THE INSPECTION COMPLETION DATE, SHALL HAVE CONDUCTED SUCH INVESTIGATIONS AND INSPECTIONS OF THE PROPERTY INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PHYSICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, AND SHALL RELY UPON SAME, AND UPON CLOSING, SHALL ASSUME THE RISK OF ALL ADVERSE MATTERS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ADVERSE PHYSICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS WHICH MAY NOT HAVE BEEN REVEALED BY BUYER’S INSPECTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT UPON CLOSING, SELLER SHALL SELL AND CONVEY TO BUYER AND BUYER SHALL PURCHASE AND ACCEPT FROM SELLER THE PROPERTY “AS IS” AND “WHERE IS” WITH ALL FAULTS AND THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS, WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS, COLLATERAL TO OR AFFECTING THE PROPERTY OTHER THAN AS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 7(e) SHALL SURVIVE CLOSING.

 

    Buyer’s Initials: JBG   

 

Section 8.      Buyer’s Termination Rights. If, prior to the expiration of the Examination Period, Buyer determines in its sole and absolute discretion, that the Property is unsuitable to Buyer for any reason or for no reason at all, and provides written notice to Seller thereof on or before the expiration of the Examination Period, then this Agreement shall terminate (“Termination Notice”). If, prior to the expiration of the Examination Period, Buyer determines the Property is suitable in Buyer’s sole discretion and provides written notice to Seller thereof on or before the expiration of the Examination Period, then this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect (“Approval Notice”). In the event Buyer fails to deliver the Approval Notice as provided herein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the Earnest Money will be non-refundable except if this Agreement is terminated as a result of Seller’s default under this Agreement. In the event Buyer has delivered the Termination Notice as provided in this Section 8, the Escrow Agent will pay, on demand and without any further consent or approval of Seller, the Earnest Money to Buyer. Buyer shall promptly return to Seller the materials and information furnished to Buyer by Seller and any other Property Records after Buyer’s receipt of the Deposit. Upon payment of the Earnest Money to Buyer as aforesaid, neither party shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities with respect to each other hereunder, except for the obligations specifically provided for under the Agreement that survive termination of the Agreement.

 

Section 9.      Insurance. At least two (2) Business Days prior to any entry on the Real Property by Buyer, its agents, employees, consultants, contractors or subcontractors, Buyer shall deliver to Seller certificates or other written confirmation reasonably satisfactory to Seller showing that: (i) Buyer or Buyer’s inspecting company has in effect a comprehensive general liability insurance covering any and all liability of Buyer (or its inspector, as the case may be) and Seller with respect to or arising out of any work to be performed by Buyer, or for Buyer under this Agreement with limits not less than $1,000,000.00 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage liability; and (ii) Seller shall be named as additional insured on such insurance policies.

Section 10.     Seller’s Deliveries. Seller shall deliver to Buyer within five (5) Business Days following the Effective Date copies of the materials and documents with respect to the Property which are described in Exhibit “G” attached hereto, to the extent, however, that such materials and/or documents are in the possession or control of the Seller (hereinafter, the “Property Documents”).

 

The furnishing by Seller of the Property Documents is made by Seller without any representation or warranty whatsoever as to the accuracy or completeness thereof, or the right of Buyer to rely thereon. Buyer acknowledges that its decision to purchase the Property is based upon Buyer’s independent investigation and evaluation of the Property.

 

Section 11.      Representations of Seller. Seller makes the following representations to Buyer, which are true and correct as of the Effective Date and at Closing:

 

(a)     Seller is a corporation duly formed and validly existing under the laws of the State of Florida. Seller has the full right and authority to enter into this Agreement and to transfer all of the Property and to consummate or cause to be consummated the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(b)     The individual executing this Agreement on behalf of the Seller has the requisite authority to do so for and on behalf of Seller.

 

(c)     Except for the Code Violations and certain zoning related matters that may have been initiated by the Wynwood District Improvement District, to Seller’s knowledge, there are no pending or threatened matters of litigation, administrative actions or arbitrations against or with respect to the Seller and/or Property.

 

(d)     Seller is not a foreign person or disregarded entity within the meaning of Section 1445(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

 

(e)     To Seller’s knowledge, performance under this Agreement will not result in any breach of or default (or an event which would, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, constitute a default) under any agreement or other instrument which is either binding upon or enforceable against Seller.

 

(f)     Seller represents that Seller has not received any notices of violation of any environmental condition affecting the Property which remain uncured and Seller shall deliver to Buyer within five (5) Business Days following the Effective Date, any and all prior notice of environmental violations received by Seller during the period of its ownership which may otherwise have been cured. As used herein, “Hazardous Materials” shall mean any flammables, explosives, radioactive materials, hazardous wastes, hazardous and toxic substances or related materials, asbestos or any material containing asbestos, (except for vinyl asbestos floor tile), human blood and other human waste products, or any other substance or material, defined as a “hazardous substance” by any federal, state, or local environmental law, ordinance, rule or regulation including, without limitation, the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, the Federal Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, as amended, the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, and the rules and regulations adopted and promulgated pursuant to each of the foregoing.

 

7

 

 

(g)     The representations set forth in this Section 11 are solely for the benefit of the Buyer and are to remain true and correct at Closing. In the event that: (i) Buyer now or hereafter has knowledge, through its inspections or otherwise, that any of the representations or warranties made by Seller under this Agreement were not true or correct when made or become untrue or incorrect prior to the Closing Date or that Seller has breached a covenant under this Agreement; and (ii) Buyer nevertheless closes the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any such representation, warranty or covenant breach (as applicable) and shall have no further claim against Seller with respect thereto. If, after the Closing, Buyer discovers a breach of a representation made by Seller, then Buyer’s damages shall be limited to those losses proximately caused by the breach of that particular representation; provided, however, that such damages shall not include special damages, punitive damages and/or consequential damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Buyer agrees that any claim(s) brought by Buyer against Seller after the Closing based on an alleged breach of a representation by Seller must be filed in the appropriate forum pursuant to this Agreement, within six (6) months from Closing (the “Survival Period”). Following the expiration of the Survival Period, Buyer shall have no right and hereby waives any claims for any breach by Seller of the representations contained herein. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the maximum amount of liability that Seller shall have under any circumstance for any and all surviving obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any obligation or liability arising out of any representation made by Seller in this Agreement, and any liability under any instrument or document delivered by Seller at or in connection with the Closing) shall not exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($250,000.00). This Section 11(g) shall survive the Closing for the Survival Period.

 

(h)     All references in this Section 11 or elsewhere in this Agreement “to Seller’s knowledge,” or to Seller’s awareness and words of similar import shall refer solely to facts within the actual, conscious, present knowledge of David Barka, as Interim CEO of Seller, without any duty of investigation or inquiry, and shall not include knowledge imputed from the knowledge of any other person, or constructive knowledge. Reference to Seller or David Barka in this Section shall in no way be construed to make David Barka personally liable for, or to have personally made, any representation or warranty herein.

 

Section 12.      Buyer’s Representations. Buyer makes the following representations to Seller, which are true and correct as of the Effective Date and which will be true and correct at Closing:

 

(a)      Buyer is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of Florida, has all requisite company power and authority (i) to enter into this Agreement and each other agreement, document or instrument required to be executed in accordance herewith and to perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) to carry out the other transactions and agreements contemplated in this Agreement.

 

(b)     This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Buyer and is the valid and binding obligation of Buyer, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject as to enforceability to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium, and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).

 

(c)      The individual executing this Agreement on behalf of Buyer has the requisite authority to do so for and on behalf of Buyer.

 

(d)      Performance under this Agreement will not result in any breach of or default (or an event which would, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, constitute a default) under any material agreement or other instrument which is either binding upon or enforceable against Buyer.

 

Buyer’s representations shall survive for the Survival Period.

Section 13.      Seller’s Covenants. Seller covenants and agrees with Buyer that:

 

(a)     From and after the Effective Date, if Seller receives written notice of any threatened or pending investigation or inquiry by any governmental authority with respect to the Property for any reason, or that there is any threatened or pending litigation affecting or relating to the Property, Seller will give prompt written notice thereof to Buyer.

 

(b)     From and after the Effective Date, Seller will not enter into any contractual arrangement of any nature, including, without limitation, a lease or amendment to and/or modification of a lease, which in any manner affects the Property without first having received Buyer’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have the right to execute any and all documents or materials that may be required by the Adjacent Owner and/or the governmental or quasi-governmental authorities in connection with the Re-Plat of the Property without obtaining Buyer’s consent; provided, however, that Seller shall provide copies with any such documentation promptly after execution.

 

Section 14.      Conditions Precedent. The obligation of Buyer to consummate the transaction hereunder shall be subject to the fulfillment on or before the Closing Date of the following conditions, which may be waived by Buyer in its sole discretion (collectively, “Conditions Precedent”):

 

(a)     No suit, action, or other proceeding shall be pending before any court or governmental agency by which any third party is seeking to restrain or prohibit or to obtain damages or other relief in connection with this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein.

 

(b)      The issuance of the Title Policy (or a written commitment therefor) subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. Buyer shall use diligent, good faith efforts to cause the Title Policy to be issued.

 

(c)      There shall be no material adverse change to the Property since the end of the Examination Period; provided, however, that this Section 14(c) shall expressly exclude any changes to the Property and/or the Improvements resulting from the Code Violations and/or any fines assessed against the Property in connection with the Code Violations.

 

If any one of the above Conditions Precedent shall not have been satisfied as of the Closing Date, then Buyer shall provide Seller with written notice of such failure and Seller shall have the right to extend the Closing Date in order to cure such failure; provided, however, that any such extension shall, in no event, exceed fifteen (15) calendar days (the “Outside Closing Date”). If Seller fails to satisfy any pending Conditions Precedent on or before the Outside Closing Date, then Buyer, at its option, may either waive such Conditions Precedent in writing or terminate this Agreement by written notice thereof to Seller, in which event the parties shall have no further right or obligation hereunder, other than with respect to obligations hereunder that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, and the Earnest Money shall be promptly paid to Buyer. Notwithstanding anything stated to the contrary in this Agreement, any matter related to a rezoning, land use amendment, alley or street closure, plat or any other zoning or land use matter affecting the Property, whether applied for, pending or approved (including, without limitation, the Re-Plat of the Property), is not, and shall not be deemed, a Condition Precedent.

 

Section 15.      Default.

 

(a)     The parties hereto acknowledge the impossibility of precisely ascertaining the amount of the damages to Seller in consequence of a default hereunder by Buyer and hereby declare and agree that the Earnest Money paid by Buyer hereunder represents the reasonable estimate of such damages. Accordingly, in the event of Buyer’s default hereunder, Seller’s only remedy shall be to receive and retain as Seller’s absolute property all Earnest Money not as a penalty, but in liquidation of the damages sustained by Seller because of such default, whereupon Buyer shall have no further liability or obligation hereunder to Seller and no other remedy shall be available for Buyer’s breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Buyer shall be liable to Seller for any actual damages incurred by Seller by reason of Buyer’s failure to indemnify Seller in accordance with Section 7 above.

	 	1.	That __________________________________, is the owner of the following described real property located in ________________ County, Florida, to-wit:
	 	 	 
	 	 	 
	 	 	 
	 	 	 
	 	 	(the “Property”)
	 	 	 
	 	
			2.

				
			Seller is this day conveying its rights, title and interest in and to the above described property to __________________________________ (“Buyer”).

			

 

	 	
			3.

				
			To the best of Affiant’s knowledge, the Property is free and clear of all liens, taxes, encumbrances and claims of every kind, nature and description whatsoever, and except for real estate taxes for the year 200_ and subsequent years.

			

 

	 	
			4.

				
			Within the past ninety (90) days (i) there have been no improvements, alterations, or repairs to the Property for which the costs thereof remain unpaid, and (ii) there have been no claims for labor or material furnished for repairing or improving the same, which remain unpaid.

			

 

	 	
			5.

				
			To the best of Affiant’s knowledge, there are no mechanic’s, materialmen’s, or laborer’s liens against Seller’s interest in the Property.

			
	 	 	 
	 	6.	To the best of Affiant’s knowledge, there are no matters pending by or against the Seller that could give rise to a lien that could attach to the Property between __________, the Effective Date of ______________________________ (the “Title Company”) Commitment for Title Insurance No. ________________________ (the “Commitment”), and the date of the recording of the deed from Seller to Buyer. Affiant hereby agrees and represents that Seller will not execute or record any instrument or do any act whatsoever that in any way may or would affect the title to the Property, including, but not limited to, mortgaging or conveying the Property or any interest therein, or causing any liens to be recorded against the Property or Seller. Affiant is executing this Affidavit in part for the purpose of allowing immediate disbursement of the proceeds of the sale of the Property, pursuant to FS §627,7841.

			11.

				
			Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that a transferee (Buyer) of a U.S. real property interest must withhold tax if the transferor (Seller) is a foreign person. For U.S. tax purposes (including section 1445), the owner of a disregarded entity (which has legal title to a U.S. real property interest under local law) will be the transferor of the property and not the disregarded entity.

			f.

				
			This certification is given to induce the Buyer, to purchase the Property; and,

			

 

	 	
			g.

				
			Transferor understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by transferee and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

			

 

	 	
			h.

				
			Transferor acknowledges that the transferee, and any attorney, agent and employee of Buyer, are relying upon this certification not to withhold or pay any sum to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.

			

 

	 	
			i.

				
			Under penalties of perjury Transferor declares that it has examined this certification and to the best of its knowledge and belief it is true, correct and complete.

			12.

				
			Affiant is familiar with the nature of an oath and with the penalties as provided by the laws of the State aforesaid for falsely swearing to statements made in an instrument of this nature.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter contained on the part of each of the Parties hereto to be kept, observed and performed, and for such other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

 

1.     License. Within Mexico, BAM hereby licenses TBD to import, package and distribute product lines (as listed in Exhibit A, attached hereto and hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement, and hereinafter referred to as “Product Lines”) on an exclusive basis during the Term of the Agreement. Product Lines includes any future improvements, adaptations or new versions of the same or new products that operate as a successor of, alternative to, or competitor to the Product Lines. Subject to the confidentiality obligations of Section 18 the Intellectual Property Rights, as defined in Section 8, BAM further grants TBD an exclusive license in Mexico for the “Term” of the Agreement, to any the Intellectual Property Rights, excluding internet domain names. The manufacturing license and the product information related to manufacturing shall not commence until the manufacturing license is granted pursuant to Section 14; however TBD is granted manufacturing rights to modify the presentation of the product or dilute the product. TBD may register and contract with other distributors in Mexico. Any obligations arising from agreements with other distributors engaged by TBD shall be the obligation of TBD. TBD shall ensure BAM that any sub-distributor shall at all times comply with the laws of Mexico and the FCPA (as set forth in Section 9) and shall exercise best practices in the conduct of its business as a sub-distributor. TBD has the right to sell Product to producers and other third parties, including corporations, government entities, cooperatives, and other entities involved in agricultural practices, as necessitated by crop, in accordance with the market structure and strategy for that crop.

 

2.     Exclusivity. TBD shall maintain the exclusive rights pursuant to this Agreement within Mexico conditioned upon (i) the satisfaction of the following revenue targets: (1) US $2 million of revenues within the third anniversary following successful completion of local trials with government institutions and/or academic centers in avocados and strawberries; (2) US $3 million of revenues within the fifth anniversary following successful completion of local trials with government institutions and/or academic centers in avocados and strawberries; and (3) US $5 million of revenues within the tenth anniversary following successful completion of local trials with government institutions and/or academic centers in avocados and strawberries and (ii) the expansion of the business to add two additional target crops per year for each of the five years following successful completion of local trials with government institutions and/or academic centers in avocados and strawberries. The expansion of business to additional target crops per year shall be limited only by the number of crops in Mexico to which producers and TBD would each realize a financial return that justifies the Product purchase. If TBD loses exclusive rights as set forth herein, BAM shall have the right to engage other non-exclusive distributors within Mexico. Contingent upon the exclusivity of TBD, BAM agrees to transfer to TBD any inquiries relating to BAM agricultural applications in Mexico and provide notice of TBD’s exclusive rights to Mexico to all distributors of Product Lines in the U.S. that could be destined for Mexico. In the event TBD loses exclusive rights as set forth herein, TBD may terminate this Agreement without cause upon sixty (60) days' written notice.

 

3.     Milestone Payments. TBD shall make the following payments to BAM in addition to any funds owed to BAM for purchasing Product Lines: (i) US $100,000 within three (3) business days of the execution of this Agreement, such payment to be applied toward purchase of common shares of Zero Gravity Solutions, Inc., a Nevada company, at its private placement at a $3/share price per common share as of the date of execution of this Agreement (this payment shall be made by the Lichtinger Group on behalf of TBD and will be credited toward the initial capital requirements of US $500,000); (ii) US $75,000 within ten (10) days of successful completion of government/ academic trials in avocadoes as outlined in Section 11(d); (iii) US $75,000 within ten (10) days of successful completion of government/ academic trials in strawberries as outlined in Section 11(d); (iv) US $75,000 within ten (10) days of successful completion of government/ academic trials in the second round of government/ academic trials on the first of two crops, as outlined in Section 11(d); (v) US $75,000 within ten (10) days of successful completion of government/ academic trials in the second round of government/ academic trials on the second of two crops, as outlined in Section 11(d); (vi) US $100,000 within ten (10) days of reaching US $2 million in revenues; and (vii) US $500,000 within ten (10) days of reaching US $5 million in revenues.

6.     Payment. Pursuant to an executed contract between the Parties for the shipment of Product to TBD for sale of Product in Mexico (a “Purchase Order”), TBD will pay in accordance with standard agricultural payment practices in Mexico, the terms of four (4) months.

12.       Specific Performance.

13.       Change of Control. No change of control of TBD shall be allowed absent the consent of BAM, which shall not be withheld unless BAM has formed a reasonable fear that the acquiring entity would cause an adverse impact upon the reputation of BAM’s parent, as a public company.

In other words, TBD shall pay to BAM a royalty equivalent to eighty per cent (80%) of its savings in cost.
