Title Defects If: (i) the Title Commitment reflects any exceptions to title which are not acceptable to Buyer, in Buyer’s sole discretion; (ii) the Survey discloses any state of fact not acceptable to Buyer, in Buyer’s sole discretion; or (iii) at any time prior to the Closing, title to the Property is encumbered by any exception to title not acceptable to Buyer, in Buyer’s sole discretion (with any such exception or unacceptable state of fact being referred to herein as a “Title Defect”); then Buyer may, on or before the Satisfaction Date (or, in the case of a Title Defect not disclosed by the Title Commitment prior to the Satisfaction Date, within fifteen (15) days after Buyer receives notice of such Title Defect), provide Seller with written notice of such Title Defect. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as specifically set forth below), during the thirty (30) day period after receipt of such notice, but not later than the Closing, to remove such Title Defect or obtain affirmative title insurance coverage acceptable to Buyer, insuring and defending Buyer against any loss, cost, or expense arising out of or related to such Title Defect (“Affirmative Coverage”). If Seller elects to do so, then on or before the Closing Date (as defined below), Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable evidence of such removal or provide reasonable evidence that such Title Defect will be removed or that such Affirmative Coverage will be obtained. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated to expend whatever sums are required to cure or obtain Affirmative Coverage for the following Title Defects prior to, or at, the Closing:
Title and Survey Seller shall, at Seller's sole cost and expense, obtain and deliver to Purchaser for Purchaser's review a commitment for a standard owner's policy of title insurance along with a copy of each instrument listed as an exception thereon other than Seller's debt instruments (the "Title Commitment") on the Real Property issued by the Title Company. Seller has delivered to Purchaser a copy of the Existing Survey which Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for as provided in Section 4 hereof. During the Due Diligence Period, Seller shall obtain from the Title Company at Seller's sole cost and expense a survey endorsement and, if and to the extent available, contiguity, fairway and PUD endorsements. Purchaser may elect to receive an update to the Existing Survey (the "Updated Survey") by notifying Seller of such election in writing prior to November 6, 1997. If Purchaser so elects, Seller shall, at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, obtain and deliver to Purchaser for Purchaser's review the Updated Survey. Purchaser shall have until the later of November 6, 1997 and the date which is fifteen days after receipt of the Title Commitment and Existing Survey (such date being referred to as the "Title Review Date") for examination of Title Commitment and Existing Survey and the making of any objections thereto, said objections to be made in writing and delivered to Seller on or before the end of the Title Review Date. If Purchaser shall fail to make any objections on or before the Title Review Date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted all exceptions to the Title Commitment shown on Schedule B, Section II, except for exceptions 1, 2, 3 and 4, and the form and substance of the Existing Survey and all matters shown thereon; all such exceptions and matters shall be included in the term "Permitted Exceptions" as used herein. In the event Purchaser elects to receive the Updated Survey, then Purchaser shall have until the Title Review Date for examination of the Updated Survey and the making of objections to matters shown thereon, such objections to be made in writing and delivered to Seller on or before the expiration of the Title Review Date. If Purchaser shall fail to make any such objections to the Updated Survey on or before such date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted the form and substance of the Updated Survey and all matters shown thereon; all such exceptions and matters shall be included as Permitted Exceptions. If any objections to (i) the Title Commitment or Existing Survey or exceptions to title are made within the Title Review Period, or (ii) the Updated Survey are made before the date specified above, then Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation except as hereafter provided, to cure (by removal, endorsement or otherwise) such objections on or before the Closing Date in a manner reasonably acceptable to Purchaser. If the objections are not cured by Seller no later than five (5) days before the scheduled Closing Date, then Purchaser may as its only option, elect to either: (i) waive such objection and consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement; or (ii) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further obligations to the other party except for the Surviving Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller shall be obligated to remove (or cause the Title Company to affirmatively insure over in a manner reasonably acceptable to Purchaser) (i) any deeds of trust, mortgages, and related loan documents securing any financing obtained by Seller, including, without limitation, the existing loan with Continental Bank, N.A. (the "Existing Loan"), (ii) any mechanic's or materialmen's liens relating to work done by or on behalf of Seller and (iii) any tax or judgment liens against Seller. Seller agrees to use best efforts to satisfy all of the requirements set forth in Schedule B - Section 1 of the Commitment at or prior to the Closing Date.
Title Commitment Within five (5) Business Days after the Effective Date, Seller shall request from the Title Company a title commitment for the Property (the "Seller's Title Commitment"), specifying Seller as the record owner of the Property, showing Purchaser as the prospective named insured, in the amount of the Property Purchase Price, showing the status of title of the Property and listing all exceptions (including, but not limited to, easements, restrictions, rights-of-way, covenants, reservations, encumbrances, liens and other conditions, if any, affecting the Property) which would appear in the Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance, when issued, together with true, correct and legible copies of all items and documents referred to therein. Within five business days after receipt of the title commitment and related documents by Seller, Seller shall convey it to Purchaser. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser title at closing subject only to the "Permitted Exceptions,” as defined herein. Purchaser shall have a period (the "Review Period") ending on the date which is fifteen (15) business days after the date on which Purchaser receives the last of (i) the Title Commitment; and (ii) true, legible copies of all instruments referred to in the Title Commitment, in which to notify Seller of any objections Purchaser has to any matters shown or referred to in the Title Commitment (“Objection Notice”). Any exception to which Purchaser does not object shall be considered a "Permitted Exception". In the event Purchaser timely provides Seller an Objection Notice, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its sole cost, to eliminate or modify such unacceptable exceptions or conditions and shall give Purchaser written notice of Seller’s intent to eliminate or modify such unacceptable exceptions or conditions within ten (10) days following delivery of the Objection Notice (“Seller’s Cure Period”). In the event Seller is unable or unwilling to eliminate or modify such unacceptable exceptions or conditions to the satisfaction of Purchaser within Seller's Cure Period, and so notifies Purchaser in writing (the “No Cure Notice”), then in that event Purchaser may elect in writing delivered to Seller within ten (10) days following delivery of the No Cure Notice to Purchaser to elect to either (1) waive such Objections, or
ENCROACHMENT/ACQUISITION The Assignee/Bank has no notice or knowledge of any encroachment or that the Government or any other authority has any immediate intention of acquiring the whole or any part of the Property for roads or any other improvement schemes and if such encroachment shall be found to exist or if the Government or any local authority has any such intention, the same shall not annul the sale or shall any abatement or compensation be allowed in respect thereof.
Title Examination Within thirty (30) days after Purchaser’s exercise of the Option, Purchaser shall have the right to obtain, at Purchaser’s expense, a current survey of the Property (the “Updated Survey”) and an ALTA Title Commitment for the Property from a title company acceptable to Purchaser (the “Title Company”), setting forth the status of title to the Property, and showing all liens, claims, encumbrances, reservations, restrictions and other matters, if any, relating to the Property (the “Title Commitment”), including legible copies of all encumbrances, restrictive covenants and other documents evidencing exceptions to said Title Commitment (the “Exception Documents”). If the Title Commitment and/or Updated Survey reveals any exception(s) to title to which Purchaser objects (a “Title Objection”) and is(are) not either (i) listed as title exceptions in the title insurance policy and/or survey obtained by Seller in connection with the closing of the Mezzanine Loan and/or (ii) permitted by this Agreement (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”), Purchaser may notify Seller in writing that it would like Seller to cure or remove such Title Objections. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as set forth below), to remedy or cure any such Title Objection(s) during the twenty (20) day period following Seller’s receipt thereof (the “Cure Period”). Purchaser shall have the continuing right to have such title examination and Title Commitments updated from time to time, and to obtain updates to the Survey, and to give Seller written notice of any Title Objections appearing of record, or otherwise created, after the effective date of the initial Title Commitment and being revealed by any title examination, Survey or investigation of the Property, and Purchaser shall be entitled to object (in the same manner as set forth hereinabove) to matters shown by the updated Title Commitments or updated Survey or investigations. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as set forth below), to remedy those Title Objections identified by Purchaser to the satisfaction of Purchaser within twenty (20) days after Purchaser’s notice. If any of the Title Objections are not so cured or remedied, or provision satisfactory to Purchaser made therefor, prior to any closing date selected by Purchaser, then Purchaser, at its election, shall have the right and option to either: (a) accept title to the Property subject to said uncured Title Objections that Purchaser elects to accept, and any Title Objection accepted by Purchaser in writing shall become part of the Permitted Encumbrances; or (b) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in which event, immediately upon receipt of said notice, this Agreement shall terminate, be null and void and of no further force or effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, shall be obligated to cure or remove at or before Closing all mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt, judgments liens, mechanics and materialman’s liens, and other monetary liens against the Property, whether or not Purchaser objects thereto, and Purchaser shall credit the cost to cure, satisfy, release and remove such matters against the Purchase Price provided the same is actually paid by Purchaser or Title Company on Seller’s behalf. In addition, Seller shall not allow any easements, liens, leases, licenses, permits or other encumbrances to be placed on or granted with respect to the Property, nor shall Seller convey any rights in the Property, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, except to the extent expressly permitted, or consented to in writing by Purchaser under the Mezzanine Loan Documents. If any such prohibited easements, liens, leases, licenses, permits or other encumbrances arise after the Effective Date, notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, cure, satisfy, release and remove such matters prior to Closing; provided, however, that any easements or encumbrances that are taken by eminent domain shall be governed by the terms of Section 5 immediately below.
Title Evidence Seller agrees to share equally with Buyer the closing agent costs and the cost of a title insurance company’s commitment and standard ALTA form owner’s policy (except survey matters) to the Property, showing a marketable title vested in Seller, subject to easements, restrictions, covenants, and other matters of record. Any endorsements shall be paid solely by Buyer. The title evidence shall be presented to prospective Buyer on day of auction. Buyer acknowledges: (a) receipt of the title commitment prior to entering into this agreement; (b) review of the title commitment to the Buyer’s full satisfaction; and (c) waiver of any right to object to any exceptions listed therein. If Seller fails to satisfy all such title requirements imposed on Seller pursuant to title commitment, Buyer may, as its sole remedy and at Buyer’s election, either: (a) cancel this agreement and receive a return of Buyer’s xxxxxxx money and, in that event, this Agreement will be canceled and the parties will have no further obligations to each other; or (b) accept such title as Seller can deliver. Buyer waives any right to seek specific performance or to seek damages from Seller.
Title Review Seller shall be obligated to clear any and all encumbrances of title of an ascertainable monetary amount (“Seller Liens”), which Seller’s Liens Seller shall cause to be satisfied and or released at or prior to Closing (with Seller having the right to apply the Purchase Price or a portion thereof for such purpose). Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the Due Diligence Date, Purchaser shall give notice (“Purchaser’s Title Notice”) to Seller of the existence of any encumbrances and defects in title to which Purchaser objects and that are not Permitted Encumbrances (“Title Objections”). Seller shall, within five (5) business days from receipt of Purchaser’s Title Notice, notify Purchaser of those Title Objections that Seller elects not to attempt to remove or correct, provided that failure of Seller to give said notice shall be deemed to mean that Seller shall remove or correct all of Purchaser’s Title Objections. In the event Seller elects to attempt to remove or correct Title Objections(s) and by the later of the Due Diligence Date or the date which is thirty (30) business days following Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s Title Notice, Seller has not arranged for removal or correction of said Title Objections, then Purchaser shall either (i) terminate this Agreement in which event the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties hereto shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for rights and obligations which, by their terms, survive the termination hereof, or (ii) accept the condition of the title to the Property as it then is, without diminution of the Purchase Price. If Purchaser fails to elect (i) above, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected (ii) above. Encumbrances and defects to title that are not included in Purchaser’s Title Objections and those Title Objections that are accepted pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed to be Permitted Encumbrances. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller’s Liens shall not be deemed Permitted Encumbrances. Recording fees for recording documents to discharge Title Objections and Seller’s Liens shall be borne by Seller.
