Related to Title Work and Surveys Defects and Cure Title Policy

• Title Matters Purchaser has received from the Title ------------- Company a preliminary title commitment for a fee policy having an effective date after the date of the Original Agreement, for an ALTA (or such other form reasonably approved by Purchaser) owner's policy of title insurance with respect to the Property, together with complete and legible copies of all instruments and documents referred to as exceptions to title (collectively, the "Title ----- Commitment"). Except as set forth in the Diligence Notice, Purchaser ---------- acknowledges that it does not have any other objections to title exceptions shown on the Title Commitment. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall attempt to remedy the objections set forth in the Diligence Notice with respect to the Property. Seller shall have the right to adjourn the Closing Date pursuant to Section 3.6 for up to ninety (90) days for such purpose. If Seller ----------- shall be unable to remove any such title defects to which Purchaser has objected in accordance with this Section 3.3, Purchaser may elect (i) to terminate this ----------- Agreement, and this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, or (ii) to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding such title defect, without any abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price on account thereof. Purchaser shall make any such election by written notice to Seller given on or prior to the earlier of the Closing Date or the fifth Business Day after Seller's notice of its inability to cure such defect, and time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of such notices by Purchaser. Failure of Purchaser to give such notice shall be deemed an election by Purchaser to proceed in accordance with clause (ii) above, and such exception shall be a Permitted Encumbrance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be obligated to take any and all actions necessary to remove as a title exception (and shall not have the aforesaid option to not cure) any mortgages, deeds of trust, judgments and other liens of a monetary nature, as well as any liens or encumbrances created, permitted or suffered by Seller from and after the date of the Diligence Notice.

• Title Commitment and Survey (a) In the event (i) the Survey shows any easement, right-of-way, encroachment, conflict, protrusion or other matter affecting the Property that is unacceptable to Purchaser, or (ii) any exceptions appear in the Title Commitment other than the standard printed exceptions set forth in the standard Texas form of Commitment for Title Insurance, that are unacceptable to Purchaser, Purchaser shall within five (5) business days after receipt of the Survey, the Title Commitment and copies of all documents referred to as exceptions in the Title Commitment, notify Seller in writing of such facts and the reasons therefor ("PURCHASER'S OBJECTIONS"). Upon the expiration of said five (5) business day period, except for Purchaser's Objections if same are timely raised, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted the form and substance of the Survey, all matters shown thereon, all exceptions to the Title Commitment and other items shown thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except as otherwise set forth in SECTION 4.1.3 of this Agreement, Seller shall have no obligations to take any steps or bring any action or proceeding or otherwise to incur any effort or expense whatsoever to eliminate or modify any of the Purchaser's Objections. In the event Seller is unable or unwilling to eliminate or modify all of Purchaser's Objections to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser, Purchaser may (as its sole and exclusive remedy) terminate this Agreement by delivering notice thereof in writing to Seller by the earlier to occur of (i) the Closing Date or (ii) five (5) days after Seller's written notice to Purchaser of Seller's intent to not cure one or more of such Purchaser's Objections, in which event, the Xxxxxxx Money will be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any obligations hereunder other than the Surviving Obligations. Notwithstanding anything contained in this SECTION 4.1.2 to the contrary, in the event Purchaser does not receive all items to be delivered to Purchaser under SECTION 4.1(A) and (B) in the time frame set forth therein, Purchaser's rights shall be to terminate this Agreement as set forth in SECTION 4.1, and such rights shall not be modified or extended by the terms of this SECTION 4.1.2.

• Title and Survey Matters Within fifteen (15) Business Days following the Effective Date, Sellers shall cause Escrow Agent (in its capacity as title company issuing the title policy described below, (“Title Company”)) to furnish to Buyer and Sellers title commitments (the “Title Commitments”) with respect to the Property together with copies of all instruments listed as exceptions to title. Within ten (10) Business Days following Buyer’s receipt of the Title Commitments, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause a duly licensed Oklahoma surveyor to furnish to Buyer and Sxxxxxx XXXX/NSPS land title surveys of the Real Property (the “Surveys”). Buyer will have until the expiration of the Inspection Period to give written notice to Sellers specifying Buyer’s objections to the Title Commitment, title exceptions listed therein, and the Surveys (collectively, “Title Objections”), if any. If Buyer timely notifies Sellers in writing of the Title Objections, Sellers shall have five (5) business days after receipt of such notice (the “Title Cure Period”) to elect (but shall have no obligation whatsoever) to cure any Title Objection, and if so elected, shall either (a) satisfy the Title Objections at Sellers’ sole cost and expense and cause the Title Company to revise the Title Commitment to reflect such satisfaction, or (b) provide Buyer and the Title Company with satisfactory evidence that Sellers can and will cure such Title Objections prior to or at Closing; provided, however, Sellers shall be obligated to remove, pay and/or satisfy prior to or at Closing any monetary liens against the Property created or incurred by or through Sellers (each, a “Monetary Lien”). Failure by Sellers to timely respond in writing to any Title Objections shall be deemed Sellers’ decision not to cure any Title Objections. If Sellers elect not to satisfy any of the Title Objections within the Title Cure Period, Buyer shall have the option, exercisable within five (5) days after the expiration of the Title Cure Period, to either (i) waive the unsatisfied Title Objections, in which event the unsatisfied Title Objections will become Permitted Exceptions (hereinafter defined), or (ii) terminate this Agreement in which event the Deposit shall automatically be refunded and returned forthwith to Buyer and, except as expressly set forth herein, neither party shall have any further liability or obligation to the other hereunder. If Buyer fails to notify Sellers in writing within five (5) days after the expiration of the Title Cure Period that Buyer has elected to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.4, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived all unsatisfied Title Objections. If, after the expiration of the Inspection Period, Title Company amends or adds any exception to the Title Commitments other than at the request of Buyer (including any liens against the Property for a liquidated amount that Sellers are not obligated hereunder to satisfy at Closing), the Title Company will notify Buyer and Sellers immediately. Within two (2) business days after Buyer receives notice from Title Company (and the Closing Date shall be extended if needed so that the Closing shall not occur prior to the end of such two (2) Business Day period), together with a copy of such intervening lien or matter, Buyer shall notify Sellers in writing of any objections thereto (a “Supplemental Title Objection”). If Buyer fails to notify Sellers of such Supplemental Title Objection within such two (2) Business Day period, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any objection and approved all such exceptions. If the Supplemental Title Objection is material and adverse to the Property, is not caused by Buyer and Sellers do not agree to remove such matter (other than any Monetary Lien), then Buyer may within two (2) business days after the Supplemental Title Objection, terminate this Agreement in which event the Deposit shall automatically be refunded and returned forthwith to Buyer and, except as expressly set forth herein, neither party shall have any further liability or obligation to the other hereunder. If Sellers have not received written notice from Buyer that Buyer has elected to terminate this Agreement within such two (2) Business Day period of time, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any unsatisfied Supplemental Title Objection. “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean any title or survey item, other than Monetary Liens: (i) not raised as Title Objections by Buyer, or (ii) raised as Title Objections by Buyer but thereafter waived or deemed waived.

• 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 Report If no Additional Mortgage Policy is required with respect to such Additional Mortgaged Property, a title report issued by the Title Company with respect thereto, dated not more than 30 days prior to the date such Additional Mortgage is to be recorded and satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent;

• Title Commitment (a) Purchaser acknowledges receipt of that certain title insurance commitment dated April 9, 2002 issued by the Title Company under Commitment No. 673945-F (the "TITLE COMMITMENT"), together with copies of the title exceptions listed thereon. Purchaser shall have until the expiration of the Evaluation Period (the "ORIGINAL OBJECTION DATE") to send written notice to Seller of its objections to matters shown on the Title Commitment or the Existing Survey that Purchaser deems unacceptable and shall have until the date (the "NEW OBJECTION DATE") that is five (5) Business Days after receipt by Purchaser's counsel of any update to the Title Commitment or any Updated Survey (or as promptly as possible prior to the Closing with respect to updates received less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing) to send written notice to Seller of Purchaser's objections to any new exceptions to title to the Real Property raised thereby, provided that Purchaser may object to matters shown on an Updated Survey only if such matters were not shown on the Existing Survey. Purchaser's objections made in accordance with the preceding sentence are referred to herein as "TITLE OBJECTIONS" or "SURVEY OBJECTIONS," as applicable. Purchaser will be deemed to have accepted the exceptions to title set forth on the Title Commitment (as updated) and the matters shown on the Existing Survey and Updated Survey as permitted exceptions (together with any Title Objections and Survey Objections ultimately waived by Purchaser or cured by Seller, the "PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS") unless such matters are objected to by Purchaser in writing by the Original Objection Date or the New Objection Date, as applicable. Seller shall cause the Title Company to furnish to Purchaser a preliminary title report or title commitment, by the terms of which the Title Company agrees to issue to Purchaser at Closing an owner's policy of title insurance (the "TITLE POLICY") in the amount of the Purchase Price on the then standard TLTA owner's form insuring Purchaser's fee simple title to the Real Property, subject to the terms of such policy and the Permitted Exceptions including, without limitation, the standard or general exceptions. The basic premium for the Title Policy shall be at Seller's expense, and Purchaser may request additional coverage under the Title Policy or endorsements or deletions thereto (including, without limitation, the modification or deletion of the survey exception), which shall be, in each case, at Purchaser's expense.

• Title and Survey Review (e) Prior to the execution and delivery hereof, Seller has caused the Title Company to furnish or otherwise make available to Purchaser (i) a preliminary title commitment for the Champions Village Real Property dated with an effective date of February 24, 2016 (the “Champions Village PTR”) and (ii) a preliminary title commitment for the Oak Park Real Property dated with an effective date of February 21, 2016 (the “Oak Park PTR” and together with the Champions Village PTR, the “PTRs”), and copies of all underlying title documents described in the PTRs. Purchaser shall have until June 14, 2016 (the “Title Notice Date”) to provide written notice (the “Title Notice”) to Seller and Title Company of any matters shown on the Oak Park PTR and/or the Updated Oak Park Survey which are not satisfactory to Purchaser. Purchaser shall have until July 5, 2016 (the “Champions Village Title Notice Date”) to provide written notice (the “Champions Village Title Notice”) to Seller and Title Company of any matters shown on the Champions Village PTR and/or the Updated Champions Village Survey which are not satisfactory to Purchaser. If Seller has not received such written notice from Purchaser by the Title Notice Date or the Champions Village Title Notice Date, as applicable, Purchaser shall be deemed to have unconditionally approved the specific exceptions to title expressly provided in the PTRs and all matters revealed in the Updated Surveys, subject to Seller’s obligations set forth in Section 6.2(c) below and as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein, Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever to expend or agree to expend any funds, to undertake or agree to undertake any obligations, or otherwise to cure or agree to cure any title objections. To the extent Purchaser timely delivers a Title Notice and a Champions Village Title Notice, then Seller shall deliver, no later than June 17, 2016 as to the Title Notice and no later than July 7, 2016 as to the Champions Village Title Notice, written notice to Purchaser and Title Company identifying which disapproved items, if any, Seller shall be obligated to cure by Closing (by either having the same removed as an exception in the applicable PTR or by otherwise obtaining affirmative insurance over the same as part of the final Title Policy, such affirmative insurance to be acceptable to Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion) (“Seller’s Response”). If Seller does not deliver Seller’s Response prior to such date, Seller shall be deemed to have elected to not remove or otherwise cure any exceptions disapproved by Purchaser. If Seller elects, or is deemed to have elected, not to remove or otherwise cure an exception disapproved in Purchaser’s Title Notice or Purchaser’s Champions Village Title Notice, Purchaser shall have until June 21, 2016 as to the Title Notice and until the Contingency Date as to the Champions Village Title Notice to (i) deliver a written notice terminating this Agreement (“Termination Notice”) to Seller and Title Company terminating this Agreement as set forth in Section 5.4 above, or (ii) waive any such objection to the PTRs and the Updated Surveys (whereupon such objections shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions for all purposes hereof). If Seller and Title Company have not received a Termination Notice from Purchaser by June 21, 2016 as to the Title Notice and by the Contingency Date as to the Champions Village Title Notice, such failure to deliver same shall be deemed Purchaser’s waiver of all objections to the PTRs and the Updated Surveys that Seller did not agree to cure by Closing, subject to Seller’s obligations set forth in Section 6.2(c) below and as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

• Title Policies The Title Company shall be prepared, -------------- subject only to payment of the applicable premium, endorsement and related fees and delivery of all conveyance documents in recordable form, to issue a title insurance policy to Purchaser, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances, in accordance with Section 3.3. -----------

• Title Insurance and Surveys At the Closing, Lawyer’s Title Insurance Company (the “Title Company”) shall have delivered to Buyer policies of title insurance, or an irrevocable commitment to issue such policies, in accordance with the following: (a) an owner’s title insurance policy with respect to the Owned Property (exclusive of the IDS Site), insuring that Buyer has good and marketable fee simple title in and to each parcel of Owned Property together with all rights, easements and privileges appurtenant thereto (exclusive of the IDS Site) and (b) a leasehold title insurance policy with respect to the Leased Property, insuring that Buyer has good and marketable leasehold title in and to each parcel of Leased Property together with all rights, easements and privileges appurtenant thereto, in each case free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances (collectively, the “Title Policies”). The Title Policies shall contain such endorsements and affirmative coverages as Buyer shall identify on Schedule 7.7 attached hereto and, with respect to title matters and surveys not provided to Buyer as of the date hereof, such additional endorsements and affirmative coverages as Buyer shall reasonably request in writing. Seller shall provide all such affidavits, indemnities (in respect of title), memoranda, assignments, documents and information, whether from Seller or other Persons, in such form as Seller shall reasonably approve and as the Title Company reasonably shall require in order to (i) issue the Title Policies with the coverage required herein, (ii) omit from the Title Policies standard title objections customarily omitted on the basis of title affidavits and documentation delivered by Seller (including, without limitation, exceptions as to parties in possession and liens for work performed at the property), and (iii) evidence Seller’s authority, and the authority of the Person or Persons executing the conveyance documents on behalf of Seller, to consummate the transactions with respect to the Facilities. Buyer shall bear the cost of the title premiums for such Title Policies and Seller shall bear the cost of obtaining and recording such memoranda of leases, lease assignments and other documents as are required by the Title Company in order to issue the Title Policies with the coverages and endorsements required herein. Buyer, at Seller’s expense shall have received a current survey from Professional Engineering Corporation, in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer, of the Facility located in McAlester, Oklahoma, or such portion thereof, as deemed advisable by Buyer in its sole discretion, certified to Buyer, Buyer’s lender and the Title Company (the “Oklahoma Survey”). Seller shall have delivered to Buyer a survey of the Wichita Site prepared by Professional Engineering Corporation, dated not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing, certified to Buyer, Buyer’s lender, the Title Company and such other parties as Buyer may designate (the “Wichita Survey”; together with the Oklahoma Survey, the “Surveys”). Each Survey shall comply with the minimum detail requirements for land title surveys as adopted by the American Land Title Association and the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping. Neither the Wichita Survey nor any other Survey shall disclose (x) Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances, (y) material shortages in area or conflicts or discrepancies in boundary lines or (z) uninsurable encroachments of improvements, facilities or other structures across or over boundary lines, easement areas or rights-of-way.

• Title Reports With respect to each Closing Date Mortgaged Property, a title report issued by the Title Company with respect thereto, dated not more than 30 days prior to the Closing Date and satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent;
