Title Defects If on the Closing Date the Sellers shall be unable to cause title to the Property to be free and clear of all exceptions to title other than Permitted Encumbrances, then the Sellers shall be entitled, but shall not be obligated, to adjourn the Closing for one or more periods not to exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate for the purpose of causing title to be placed in the condition called for by this Agreement. If on the Closing Date, as the same may be adjourned as above provided, title to the Property is not free and clear of all exceptions to title other than Permitted Encumbrances, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by notice to the Sellers delivered on or prior to the Closing Date, as the same may have been extended, in which event this Agreement shall be terminated and of no further force or effect, and neither party shall have any obligations of any nature to the other hereunder or by reason hereof, except as to those obligations hereunder that are specifically stated to survive such termination, and the Deposit shall be distributed by Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 3.2.2 (and the Sellers shall join with Purchaser in executing a written instruction to Escrow Agent to do so); provided, however, that in the event that title to the Property is not free and clear of all exceptions to title other than Permitted Encumbrances due to a breach of the proviso clause of the next sentence, Purchaser shall have the rights set forth in Section 16.2. Neither the Sellers nor Owner shall be under any obligation to take any steps or to institute or prosecute any action or proceedings, or expend any sums of money, to remove from title to the Property any defect, encumbrance or objection to title; provided, however, that the Sellers shall be responsible for discharging (and at or prior to the Closing shall discharge) any liens, encumbrances or other title defects which do not constitute Permitted Encumbrances, which can be discharged solely by the payment of a sum of money and which arise solely on account of actions or failures to act by Owner or VCR. The Sellers may use any part of the Purchase Price to discharge the same, provided that the Sellers shall deliver to Purchaser at the Closing instruments in recordable form sufficient to discharge such liens and encumbrances of record. Except for the Sellers' failure to discharge such monetary liens or encumbrances as aforesaid, the Sellers shall not be deemed in default of this Agreement, and Purchaser shall not be entitled to damages of any kind, if the Sellers shall fail or be unable to cause title to the Property to be in the condition called for by this Agreement, nor shall Purchaser, in such circumstances, be entitled to specific performance of this Agreement (unless the same is due to a default by the Sellers under this Agreement). In no event shall the Sellers or Owner be obligated to discharge any mechanic's or similar lien created by a Tenant in occupancy at the Closing whose Lease is in full force and effect, but the Sellers shall cause Owner (or VCR, as applicable) to use reasonable efforts to cause such Tenant to do so. For purposes of this Section 14.2, the Sellers shall be deemed to have cured or removed any title exception if the Title Company or any other reputable title insurance company shall be prepared to issue to Owner an owner's policy of title insurance for the Property (at standard rates or with the Sellers paying any additional premium in connection with such exception) dated as of the Closing Date insuring over such exception, or providing affirmative coverage or an endorsement with respect thereto that is reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser.
Title Defect (a) In the event Seller receives notice of any Survey Objection or Title Objection (collectively and individually a “Title Defect”) within the time periods required under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 above, Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to attempt to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any such Title Defect, and shall provide Purchaser with notice within five (5) days of its receipt of any such objection, of its intention to attempt to cure such any such Title Defect. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Title Defect, the Scheduled Closing Date shall be extended for a period of twenty (20) days for the purpose of such removal. In the event that (i) Seller elects not to attempt to cure any such Title Defect, or (ii) Seller is unable to cure any such Title Defect within such twenty (20) days from the Scheduled Closing Date, Seller shall so notify Purchaser and Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.3(a) and receive a refund of the Xxxxxxx Money Deposit, together with all interest which has accrued thereon, or to waive such Title Defect and proceed to the Closing. Purchaser shall make such election by written notice to Seller within three (3) days after receipt of Seller’s notice. If Seller has elected to cure a Title Defect and thereafter fails to timely cure such Title Defect, and Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, then (i) Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses payable to third parties in connection with this transaction incurred after the date on which Seller informed Purchaser of its election to cure the Title Defect, not to exceed the Reimbursement Cap, and (ii) Purchaser shall promptly return Purchaser’s Information to Seller, after which neither party shall have any further obligation to the other under this Agreement except for the Termination Surviving Obligations. If Purchaser elects to proceed to the Closing, any Title Defects waived by Purchaser shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Exceptions, and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. If, within the three-day period, Purchaser fails to notify Seller of Purchaser’s election to terminate, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the Title Defect and to have elected to proceed to the Closing.
Environmental Defects For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Environmental Defect” means, with respect to any given Asset, an individual environmental condition identified with specificity in Buyer’s Environmental Review that constitutes a material violation of Environmental Laws in effect as of the date of this Agreement in the jurisdiction in which the affected Asset is located, excluding, however any environmental conditions deemed not to be Environmental Defects by application of Section 5.04(c).
Title to Properties; Encumbrances The Company does not currently own, nor has it ever owned (a) any real property, (b) any leasehold interests or (c) any buildings, plants, structures and/or equipment. Part 3.6 of the Seller Parties Disclosure Schedule contains a complete and accurate list of all (A) the Assets that the Company purports to own, including all of the properties and assets reflected in the Balance Sheet (except for assets held under capitalized leases disclosed or not required to be disclosed in Part 3.6 of the Seller Parties Disclosure Schedule and personal property sold since the date of the Balance Sheet, as the case may be, in the Ordinary Course of Business), and (B) all of the properties and assets purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company since the date of the Balance Sheet (except for personal property acquired and sold since the date of the Balance Sheet in the Ordinary Course of Business and consistent with past practice), which subsequently purchased or acquired properties and assets (other than inventory and short-term investments) are listed in Part 3.6 of the Seller Parties Disclosure Schedule. The Company is the sole owner and has good and marketable title (or leasehold title, as the case may be) to the Assets free and clear of all Encumbrances, and the Assets reflected in the Balance Sheet are free and clear of all Encumbrances and are not, in the case of real property, subject to any rights of way, building use restrictions, exceptions, variances, reservations, or limitations of any nature except, with respect to all such properties and assets, (i) mortgages or security interests shown on the Balance Sheet as securing specified liabilities or obligations, with respect to which no default (or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) exists, (ii) mortgages or security interests incurred in connection with the purchase of property or assets after the date of the Balance Sheet (such mortgages and security interests being limited to the property or assets so acquired), with respect to which no default (or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) exists, (iii) liens for current taxes not yet due, and (iv) Encumbrances pursuant to the Pledge Agreement (as defined below) or the Facility Agreement and (v) Encumbrances incurred in the Ordinary Course of the Business, consistent with past practice, or created by the express provisions of the Contracts, each of the type identified on Part 3.6 of the Seller Parties Disclosure Schedule (together, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). All such assets are suitable for the uses to which they are being put or have been put in the Ordinary Course of Business and are in good working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted.
Notice of Environmental Defects Promptly upon discovery, but in any event prior to the Environmental Defect Notice Deadline, Buyer shall deliver to Seller written notices (each, a “Notice of Environmental Defect”) setting forth each Environmental Defect (other than those environmental matters described in Section 5.3 of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Disclosed Environmental Defects”)) affecting the Assets that Buyer’s Environmental Assessment identifies and that Buyer believes to be a Non-De Minimus Environmental Defect, together with a description in reasonable detail of the Environmental Defect (and, to the extent reasonably necessary to support such description, reports, assessments and other documentation in Buyer’s possession relating to such Environmental Defect) and Buyer’s good faith estimate of the cost to Remediate such Environmental Defect (the “Environmental Defect Value”). Without limitation of Buyer’s remedies for any breach by Seller of its representations and warranties in Article VI pertaining to environmental matters, Buyer shall be deemed to have conclusively waived (a) any Environmental Defect about which it fails to notify Seller in writing pursuant to a Notice of Environmental Defect prior to the Environmental Defect Notice Deadline and (b) the Disclosed Environmental Defects. Buyer shall have the right to exclude an Asset from this Agreement if Buyer’s good faith estimate of the Environmental Defect Value, as set forth in the Notice of Environmental Defect relating to such Environmental Defect exceeds 50% of the Allocated Value of the Asset affected thereby, in which event the Base Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of such Asset and such Asset shall thereafter be treated as an Excluded Asset; provided, that Buyer’s right to exclude any such Asset shall not apply to an Asset with an Allocated Value of less than $100,000 unless Buyer’s good faith estimate of the Environmental Defect Value relating to the Environmental Defect affecting such Asset exceeds $200,000.
Title to Property; Encumbrances (a) The Company does not own any real property or any Structures.
Notice of Title Defects Buyer shall provide Seller notice of all Title Defects no later than 5:00 p.m. MST on the date which is seven (7) days prior to the Closing Date (the “Title Claim Date”). To be effective, such notice must (a) be in writing, (b) be received by Seller on or prior to the Title Claim Date, (c) describe the Title Defect in reasonable detail (including any alleged variance in the Net Revenue Interest or Working Interest), (d) identify the specific Asset or Assets affected by such Title Defect, (e) include the Title Defect Value, as reasonably determined by Buyer in good faith, and (f) comply with the limitations and Title Defect Value qualifications set forth in Section 4.14. Any matters identified by Buyer during the Examination Period that constitute Title Defects, but of which Seller has not been specifically notified by Buyer in accordance with the foregoing, shall be deemed to have been waived by Buyer for all purposes and shall constitute Permitted Encumbrances and Assumed Obligations hereunder. Upon receipt of notices of Title Defects, the Parties shall meet and determine upon which of the Title Defects, Title Defect Values, and methods of cure the Parties have reached agreement. Upon the receipt of such notice from Buyer, Seller shall have the option, but not the obligation, for a period ending ninety (90) days after the Closing to cure such defect. If Seller should not elect to cure a Title Defect, and no aspect of such defect is reasonably in dispute, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted for such defect by the amount of the Title Defect Value.
Title to Properties; Absence of Encumbrances Each of the Borrowers has good and marketable title to all of the material properties, assets and rights of every name and nature now purported to be owned by it, including, without limitation, such properties, assets and rights as are reflected in the Initial Financial Statement (except such properties, assets or rights as have been disposed of in the ordinary course of business since the date thereof), free from all Encumbrances, except Permitted Encumbrances, and, except as so disclosed, free from all defects of title that might materially adversely affect any of such properties, assets or rights or the business, financial condition, assets or properties of any of the Borrowers. All such properties and assets are free and clear of all title defects or objections, liens, claims, charges, security interests and other Encumbrances of any nature whatsoever, except Permitted Encumbrances. The rights, properties and other assets presently owned, leased or licensed by any of the Borrowers and described elsewhere in this Agreement include all rights, properties and other assets necessary to permit any of the Borrowers to conduct its businesses in all material respects in the same manner as its businesses have been conducted prior to the date hereof. At the time any of the Borrowers pledge, sell, assign or transfer to the Agent or the Canadian Bank, as the case may be, any instrument, document of title, security, chattel paper or other property (including Base Inventory, Equipment, Base Accounts, contract rights, patents, trademarks, copyrights, Accounts and any other Collateral) or any proceeds or products thereof, or any interest therein, such Borrower shall be the lawful owner thereof and shall have good right to pledge, sell, assign or transfer the same; none of such properties shall have been pledged, sold, assigned or transferred to any Person other than the Agent or the Canadian Bank, as the case may be, or in any way encumbered (other than Permitted Encumbrances and asset sales permitted under Section 6.6 hereof); and the Borrowers shall defend the same against the claims and demands of all Persons.
Remedies for Title Defects Subject to Seller’s continuing right to dispute the existence of a Title Defect and/or the Title Defect Amount asserted with respect thereto and subject to the rights of the parties pursuant to Section 14.1(f), in the event that any Title Defect timely asserted by Buyer in accordance with Section 11.2(a) is not waived in writing by Buyer or cured on or before Closing, Seller shall, at its sole option, elect to:
Good Title Conveyed The stock certificates, stock powers, endorsements, assignments and other instruments being executed and delivered by the Seller to the Purchaser at or after Closing are and will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Seller, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, and will effectively vest in the Purchaser good, valid and marketable title to all the HD Commerce Shares to be transferred to the Purchaser pursuant to and as contemplated by this Agreement free and clear of all Encumbrances.
