instructions required by the escrow holder to clarify its rights
and duties (and the parties agree to sign these additional
instructions). If there is any conflict between these other
instructions and this Agreement, this Agreement will control.
8. TITLE. Closing will be conditioned on the agreement of a
title company selected by Seller to issue an Owner's policy of

equal to the purchase price, insuring that Buyer will own
insurable title to the Property subject only to: the title
company's standard exceptions; current real property taxes and
assessments; survey exceptions; the rights of parties in
possession pursuant to the lease defined in paragraph 11 below;
all matters of public record; and other items disclosed to Buyer
during the Review Period.
Buyer shall be allowed five (5) business days after receipt of
said commitment for examination and the making of any objections
to marketability thereto, said objections to be made in writing
or deemed waived. If any objections are so made, Seller shall be
allowed sixty (60) days to cure such objections and make such
title marketable or, in the alternative, to obtain a commitment
for insurable title insuring over Buyer's objections. If Seller
shall decide to make no efforts to make title marketable, or is
unable to make title marketable or obtain insurable title, (after
execution by Buyer of such documents reasonably requested by
Seller to evidence the termination hereof) Buyer's First Payment
will be returned and this Agreement shall be null and void and of
no further force and effect. Seller has no obligation to spend
any funds or make any effort to satisfy Buyer's objections, if
any.
Pending satisfaction of Buyer's objections, the payments
hereunder required shall be postponed, but upon satisfaction of
Buyer's objections and within ten (10) days after written notice
to the Buyer of satisfaction of Buyer's objections, the parties
shall perform this Agreement according to its terms.

half of the cost of obtaining a Standard Owner's Title Insurance
Policy in the full amount of the purchase price, and the cost of
the title commitment. Buyer will pay one half of the cost of
obtaining a Standard Owners Title Insurance Policy in the full
amount of the purchase price. Buyer will pay all recording fees,
transfer taxes and clerk's fees imposed upon the recording of the
deed, one-half of the escrow fees, and the cost of an update to
the Survey in Sellers possession (if an update is required by
Buyer.) Each party will pay its own attorney's fees and costs to
document and close this transaction.
10. REAL ESTATE TAXES, SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS AND PRORATIONS.
(A). Because the Property is subject to a net lease (as
further set forth in paragraph 11(A)(1), the parties acknowledge
that there shall be no need for a real estate tax proration.
However, Seller warrants that all real estate taxes and
installments of special assessments due and payable in all years
prior to the year of Closing have been paid in full. Unpaid real
estate taxes and unpaid levied and pending special assessments

Buyer, pro-rated, however, to the date of closing for the period
prior to closing, which shall be the responsibility of Seller if
Tenant shall not pay the same. Buyer shall likewise pay all taxes
due and payable in the year after Closing and any unpaid
installments of special assessments payable therewith and
thereafter, if such unpaid levied and pending special assessments
and real estate taxes are not paid by any tenant of the Property.
