R E C I T A L S:
WHEREAS, Loan Seller is the owner of certain mortgage loans more fully described on Exhibit A-1 hereto (each individually a “Loan” and collectively, the “Loans”) to various borrowers (collectively, the “Borrowers”) which are evidenced by promissory notes (each individually a “Note” and collectively, the “Notes”);
WHEREAS, the Notes are secured by certain liens and security interests evidenced by the related security instruments (collectively, the “Security Instruments”) encumbering certain real property and/or other collateral securing the applicable Loan (each individually a “Collateral Property” and collectively, the “Collateral Properties”);
WHEREAS, the Notes and the Security Instruments, together with all other documents and instruments evidencing, securing or otherwise relating to all or any portion of the Loans, are collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents”;
WHEREAS, Property Seller is the owner of certain real estate properties more fully described on Exhibit A-1 hereto (each individually a “Property” and collectively, the “Properties”; and the Loans and the Properties are collectively referred to as the “Assets”); and
WHEREAS, whenever this Agreement refers to a “Seller”, such reference shall mean Loan Seller or Property Seller, as the context may require.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the payment of the Purchase Price (as defined below), the terms and conditions contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby covenant and agree as follows:
1. Purchase of Assets.
1.1 Purchase and Sale. In consideration of the payment by Purchaser to Sellers by wire transfer to an account designated by Sellers on or prior to the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined below) in immediately available funds of the Purchase Price (as hereinafter defined), Sellers shall sell, assign and transfer on an as-is, where-is basis, without recourse, representation or warranty, express or implied, except for the representations, warranties and covenants, expressly set forth herein, all of Sellers’ right, title and interest in and to the Loans, the Loan Documents and the Properties subject to the terms and

 

 


 

conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 1.4, 1.5 and 3. Without limitation of the foregoing, on the Closing Date, Property Seller shall convey all of Property Seller’s right, title, and interest in and to each Property, including the Property Seller’s interest in the land described in the applicable Title Commitment (as hereinafter defined) for each Property, the buildings, parking areas, improvements, and fixtures now situated on each Property, all easements, hereditaments, and appurtenances belonging to or inuring to the benefit of Property Seller and pertaining to each Property, if any, the reversionary interest in any street or road abutting each Property to the center lines thereof, and all leases and other occupancy agreements (collectively, the “Leases”) affecting such Property. If any Property conveyed to Purchaser at the Closing is encumbered by one or more mortgage(s) held by Loan Seller (and which mortgage(s) were not theretofore released or otherwise discharged), Purchaser shall have the right to request that Loan Seller assign and transfer such mortgage(s) and the related loan to Purchaser (or its designee) at Closing as if such mortgage(s) and loan were a Loan hereunder (provided, that other than effectuating such assignment and other transfer, Loan Seller shall have no liability or obligation in connection therewith).
1.2 Purchase Price. The “Purchase Price” shall be calculated as the sum of the Individual Purchase Prices (as hereinafter defined) for all of the Assets being purchased hereunder. The “Individual Purchase Price” for each Asset equals the product of the percentage for such Asset as set forth in the column headed IPP Percentage on Exhibit A-1 and the dollar amount for such Asset as set forth in the column headed PNBK Customer Balance on Exhibit A-1, as same may be subject to proration and adjustment pursuant to this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the parties acknowledge that the PNBK Customer Balance represents (a) with respect to a Loan, the outstanding principal balance of such Loan as of the date hereof, and (b) with respect to a Property, the outstanding principal balance of the mortgage loan previously held by Loan Seller on the date that Property Seller (as nominee of Loan Seller) foreclosed on or otherwise accepted fee title to such Property.
1.3 Adjustment of PNBK Customer Balance Amounts. Solely with respect to the Loans, the PNBK Customer Balance for each Loan set forth on Exhibit A-1 shall be reduced, dollar-for-dollar, on the Closing Date by any regularly scheduled payments under the Loan Documents on account of the outstanding principal balance of such Loan, and on or prior to the Closing Date, Loan Seller shall provide an accounting of such regularly scheduled payment(s) to Purchaser in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, and at Closing (as hereinafter defined), Sellers and Purchaser shall amend and modify the PNBK Customer Balance and the Purchase Price for the Loans on Exhibit A-1 to reflect the same. Without limitation of the foregoing, Sellers acknowledge and agree that one hundred percent (100%) of all other payments on the account of the outstanding principal balance of a Loan and payments on past due interest (excluding, however, regularly scheduled monthly interest payments) after the date hereof, shall be credited to Purchaser at Closing.

(e) With respect to a Loan, to the extent the insurance premiums for the applicable Collateral Property shall be unpaid and not current to the Closing Date (the “Unpaid Collateral Property Premiums”), Loan Seller shall pay such Unpaid Collateral Property Premiums on or prior to the Closing Date.

(g) To the extent that any payments on account of the Loans are received by Seller on and after the Closing Date, such payments shall be deemed received by Seller in trust for Purchaser and promptly remitted to Purchaser in the form received by Seller, except that, with respect to all checks, drafts or other instruments, Seller shall provide all necessary endorsements, without representation, warranty or recourse, to enable Purchaser to negotiate the same.

(c) On or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Materials Delivery Date, Purchaser shall have the right, to deliver a notice to Sellers (the “Purchaser’s First Notice”) stating either that (x) Purchaser has not received all of the Outstanding Due Diligence Materials (which Purchaser’s First Notice shall specify which Outstanding Due Diligence Materials have not been received by Purchaser) and/or (y) Purchaser has determined that the Outstanding Due Diligence Materials disclose Material Monetary Matters (as hereinafter defined) adverse to Purchaser with respect to any of the Contingent Assets (which Purchaser’s First Notice shall specify the Outstanding Due Diligence Materials giving rise to such Material Monetary Matters, and a reasonable description of such material monetary matters). For purposes of this Section 3.1(c), a Material Monetary Matter shall mean a matter disclosed by the Outstanding Due Diligence Materials that is quantifiable and that is reasonably estimated to be an amount not less than $20,000.00 with respect to any Contingent Asset to which one or more specified Outstanding Due Diligence Material(s) relates.

If Purchaser’s Second Notice is not duly and timely delivered under Section 3.1(e), then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any further right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 3.1(e) and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. In addition, to the extent that any Contingent Assets are not identified as Rejected Assets in a Purchaser’s Second Notice, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms with respect to such Contingent Assets.
3.2 Continuing Due Diligence. Purchaser’s sole right to reject and to not purchase Assets (other than on account of Seller’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement) shall be pursuant to Section 3.1 above. Notwithstanding to the foregoing, Purchaser, for its own account, may inspect, test, or survey any Property, and subject to the terms of the applicable Loan Documents, any Collateral Property (in each case, Sellers may provide a representative to accompany Purchaser), at any reasonable time during business hours during the Due Diligence Period and at any reasonable time during business hours up until the Closing Date. Purchaser shall have the right to review all of the Due Diligence Materials and to conduct such due diligence as is deemed necessary or appropriate by Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, non-invasive or invasive environmental testing or engineering surveys of the Property, interviews with the Tenants (as hereinafter defined), and such other due diligence as is customarily conducted by purchasers of real property. Purchaser shall restore the Property to its condition existing immediately prior to Purchaser’s inspection thereof, and Purchaser shall be liable for all damage or injury to any person or property resulting from, relating to or arising out of any inspection, whether occasioned by the acts of Purchaser or any of its employees, agents, representatives or contractors, and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers and their respective agents, employees, officers, directors, affiliates and asset managers from any liability resulting therefrom.
