If Purchaser fails to give timely notice of its election to terminate for any reason whatsoever such exception shall be deemed to be a Permitted Exception.

4.2.11 deliver such additional documents as shall be reasonably required to consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

4.3 Purchaser's Obligations at Closing. At Closing, Purchaser shall:

4.3.1 pay to Seller the full amount of the Purchase Price, as increased or decreased by prorations and adjustments as herein provided, in immediately available wire transferred funds pursuant to Section 1.5 above, it being agreed that at Closing the Xxxxxxx Money shall be delivered to Seller and applied towards payment of the Purchase Price;

4.3.2 join Seller in execution of the instruments described in Subsections 4.2.3, 4.2.4, and 4.2.5 above;

4.3.4 execute and deliver the Seller Lease; and

4.3.5 deliver such additional documents as shall be reasonably required to consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

4.4 Credits and Prorations.

4.4.1 The following shall be apportioned with respect to the Property as of 12:01 a.m., on the day of the applicable Closing, as if Purchaser were vested with title to the Property during the entire day upon which such Closing occurs: (i) rents, if any, as and when collected (the term “rents” as used in this Agreement includes all payments due and payable by tenants under the Leases and shall take into account any concessions relating to any Lease), (ii) taxes (including personal property taxes on the Personal Property) and assessments levied against the Property, (iii) payments under the Operating Agreements, (iv) gas, electricity and other utility charges for which Seller is liable, if any, such charges to be apportioned at Closing on the basis of the most recent meter reading occurring prior to Closing, and (v) any other operating expenses or other items pertaining to the Property which are customarily prorated between a purchaser and a seller in the area in which the Property is located.

4.4.2 At Closing, (i) Seller shall, at Purchaser’s option, either deliver to Purchaser any security deposits actually held by Seller pursuant to the Leases or credit to the account of Purchaser the amount of such security deposits (to the extent such security deposits are not applied against delinquent rents or otherwise applied as contemplated), and (ii) Purchaser shall credit to the account of Seller all refundable cash or other deposits posted with utility companies serving the Property, or, at Seller’s option, Seller shall be entitled to receive and retain such refundable cash and deposits.

4.4.3 Any taxes paid at or prior to Closing shall be prorated based upon the amounts actually paid. If taxes and assessments for the current year have not been paid before Closing, Seller shall be charged at Closing an amount equal to that portion of such taxes and assessments which relates to the period before Closing and Purchaser shall pay the taxes and assessments prior to their becoming delinquent. Any such apportionment made with respect to a tax year for which the tax rate or assessed valuation, or both, have not yet been fixed shall be based upon the tax rate and/or assessed valuation last fixed. To the extent that the actual taxes and assessments for the current year differ from the amount apportioned at Closing, the parties shall make all necessary adjustments by appropriate payments between themselves following Closing provided; however, that Seller shall not be responsible for any increased taxes or assessments resulting from an increase in the assessed value of the Land or the Improvements first resulting from and after the day of Closing or otherwise resulting from the sale of the Property.

4.4.4 Discounts for the prepayment of any taxes, water rates or sewer rents shall be prorated as of the day of Closing.

4.4.5 As to gas, electricity and other utility charges referred to in Subsection 4.4.1(iv) above, Seller may on notice to Purchaser elect to pay one or more of all of said items accrued to the date hereinabove fixed for apportionment directly to the person or entity entitled thereto, and to the extent Seller so elects, such item shall not be apportioned hereunder, and Seller’s obligation to pay such item directly in such case shall survive the applicable Closing.

4.4.6 The Personal Property is included in this sale, without further charge, except that Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of any and all sales or similar taxes payable in connection with the Personal Property and Purchaser shall execute and deliver any tax returns required of it in connection therewith, said obligations of Purchaser to survive Closing.

4.4.7 Unpaid and delinquent rent collected by Seller and Purchaser after the date of Closing shall be delivered as follows: (i) if Seller collects any unpaid or delinquent rent for the Property, Seller shall, within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof, deliver to Purchaser any such rent which Purchaser is entitled to hereunder relating to the date of Closing and any period thereafter, and (ii) if Purchaser collects any unpaid or delinquent rent from the Property, Purchaser shall, within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof, deliver to Seller any such rent which Seller is entitled to hereunder relating to the period prior to the date of Closing. Seller and Purchaser agree that (iii) all rent received by Seller or Purchaser within the first sixty (60) day period after the date of Closing shall be applied first to delinquent rentals, if any, in the order of their maturity, and then to current rentals, and (iv) all rent received by Seller or Purchaser after the first sixty (60) day period after the date of Closing shall be applied first to current rentals and then to delinquent rentals, if any, in inverse order of maturity. Purchaser will make a good faith effort after Closing to collect all rents in the usual course of Purchaser’s operation of the Property, but Purchaser will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect delinquent rents.

4.4.8 Either party shall be entitled to a post-Closing adjustment for any incorrect proration or adjustment provided written notice thereof is given to the other party within sixty (60) days of Closing (or such longer period with respect to adjustments not capable of being made or determined within such sixty (60) day period).

4.4.9 The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall survive Closing for a period of sixty (60) days (or, in the case of adjustments requiring a longer time in order to make a final determination as described in Section 4.4.8, such longer period of time).

4.5 Closing Costs. Seller shall pay (i) the fees of any counsel representing it in connection with this transaction; (ii) one-half (1/2) of any escrow fee which may be charged by the Escrow Agent or Title Company; and (iii) one-half (1/2) of all transfer and recordation taxes due and payable in connection with this transaction. Purchaser shall pay (iv) one-half (1/2) of all transfer and recordation taxes due and payable in connection with the transfer of the Property; (v) the fees of any counsel representing Purchaser in connection with this transaction; (vi) the fee for the title examination and the Title Commitment and the premium for the Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance to be issued to Purchaser by the Title Company at Closing; (vii) the cost of the Survey; (viii) the fees for recording any documents conveying the Property to Purchaser; and (ix) one-half (1/2) of any escrow fees charged by the Escrow Agent or Title Company. All other costs and expenses incident to this transaction and the closing thereof shall be paid by the party incurring same.
