The terms and conditions of this Agreement and the instructions to First American Title Insurance Company (“Escrow Holder”) with regard to the escrow (“Escrow”) created pursuant hereto are as follows:

1.        Purchase and Sale. FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Seller agrees to sell the Property to Buyer, and Buyer agrees to purchase the Property from Seller, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

2.        Purchase Price. The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Property shall be SEVEN MILLION NINE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($7,950,000.00), payable as follows:

(a)        Upon the “Opening of Escrow”, as hereafter defined, Buyer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited with Escrow Holder, in cash or certified or bank cashier’s check or confirmed wire transfer of funds, the sum of ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($100,000.00) (“Deposit”), which Deposit shall, except as otherwise herein provided, be applied toward payment of the Purchase Price upon the “Close of Escrow” (as hereafter defined). The Deposit shall be invested by Escrow Holder in an interest-bearing account selected by Buyer with all interest accruing thereon paid to Buyer upon demand or, at Buyer’s election, credited to the Purchase Price upon the Close of Escrow, except as otherwise herein provided. If the Close of Escrow fails to occur for any reason other than a default by Buyer, the Deposit plus any accrued interest thereon shall, except as otherwise herein provided, be immediately returned by Escrow Holder to Buyer, and, without waiver of any other rights Buyer may have under this Agreement, this Agreement and the Escrow created pursuant hereto shall be deemed terminated.

(b)        In addition to the Deposit, Buyer shall also concurrently deposit with Escrow Holder the additional sum of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) (the “Independent Consideration”). The Independent Consideration shall be non-refundable to Buyer as independent consideration for the rights extended to Buyer under this Agreement. The Independent Consideration shall be released to Seller immediately following Buyer’s deposit of the Independent Consideration into Escrow. In all instances under this Agreement in which Buyer elects to terminate or is deemed to have terminated this Agreement, Seller shall retain the Independent Consideration. The Independent Consideration shall not be applicable towards the Purchase Price.

(c)        On the date that is no later than seven (7) business days after “Completion of the Asset” (as hereinafter defined), Buyer shall deposit or cause to be deposited with Escrow Holder, in cash or certified or bank cashier’s check or confirmed wire transfer of funds, the sum of ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($100,000.00) (“Additional Deposit”), which Additional Deposit shall, except as otherwise herein provided, be applied towards payment of the Purchase Price upon the Close of Escrow. The Additional Deposit shall be invested by Escrow Holder in an interest-bearing account selected by Buyer with all interest accruing thereon paid to Buyer upon demand or, at Buyer’s election, credited to the Purchase Price upon the Close of Escrow, except as otherwise herein provided. Should the Close of Escrow fail to occur for any reason other than a default by Buyer, including without limitation Seller’s failure to satisfy a condition to Buyer’s obligations hereunder and Buyer’s refusal to waive such failure, then the Additional Deposit and any accrued interest thereon shall, except as otherwise herein provided, be immediately returned by Escrow Holder to Buyer, and without waiver of any other rights Buyer may have under this Agreement, this Agreement and the Escrow created pursuant hereto shall be deemed terminated.

(d)        Upon the Close of Escrow, Buyer shall deposit or cause to be deposited with Escrow Holder, in the form of a certified or bank cashier’s check, or a confirmed wire transfer of funds, the balance of the Purchase Price, plus such additional funds, if any, as may be required to pay Buyer’s share of prorations and closing costs, as set forth herein.

Escrow Holder shall notify Buyer and Seller, in writing, of the date Escrow is opened, the expiration of the “Inspection Period” (as hereafter defined) and the “Closing Date” (as hereafter defined). In addition, Buyer and Seller agree to execute, deliver and be bound by any reasonable or customary supplemental escrow instructions of Escrow Holder or other instruments as may be reasonably required by Escrow Holder in order to consummate the transaction contemplated herein. The printed portions of any such supplemental instructions shall not amend or supersede any portions of this Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between such supplemental instructions and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.

(b)        Close of Escrow. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Close of Escrow” or “Closing” shall be defined as the date that the Special Warranty Deed, the form of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit “B” (“Special Warranty Deed”), conveying the Land and Improvements to Buyer, is recorded in the Official Records of Lafayette Parish, State of Louisiana. The Escrow shall, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, close on or before the date that is the later of (a) thirty (30) days after Completion of the Asset, or (b) five (5) business days after Buyer’s receipt of the items referenced in Sections 12(b), (c) and (d) below, unless extended by mutual written agreement of Buyer and Seller (“Closing Date”), time being of the essence.

(c)        On or before three (3) business days before the scheduled Closing Date, Escrow Holder shall prepare a proforma closing statement to be approved by Buyer and Seller for their respective prorations, setting forth the estimated adjustments and prorations as of the scheduled Closing Date.

days following the Opening of Escrow. Seller shall be absolutely obligated to remove, at or prior to the Close of Escrow, and Buyer shall be deemed to have disapproved, all monetary exceptions to title other than non-delinquent real property taxes and installments of special assessments. If, on or before the expiration of the Inspection Period (defined below), Buyer does not disapprove, by written notice delivered to Seller and Escrow Holder within such period, any non-monetary items described therein, then such items shall be deemed approved and Buyer shall no longer have the right to terminate the Escrow pursuant to this Section 4. If, on or before the expiration of the Inspection Period (defined below), Buyer disapproves, by written notice delivered to Seller and Escrow Holder within such period, any non-monetary items described therein, Seller shall thereafter have the right (but not the obligation, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained) to attempt to eliminate or ameliorate, on or before the Close of Escrow, to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction, such matters as Buyer shall have so disapproved. Seller shall give written notice to Buyer, within ten (10) days of Seller’s receipt of Buyer’s notice of disapproval, whether Seller is unable and/or unwilling to ameliorate or eliminate such disapproved matters. If Seller so notifies Buyer that it is unable and/or unwilling to eliminate or ameliorate any such disapproved matters, Buyer shall have the right, exercisable by written notice delivered to Seller and Escrow Holder within five (5) days of receipt of Seller’s notice, to terminate the Escrow, in which event Buyer’s Deposit and Additional Deposit plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be returned to Buyer as its sole and exclusive remedy (unless due to a default under this Agreement by Seller), and thereafter the Escrow, this Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate, except as and to the extent otherwise expressly herein provided. If Buyer does not so terminate the Escrow, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its prior disapprovals of those matters which Seller is unable and/or unwilling to eliminate or ameliorate, in which event such disapproved matters shall be deemed approved and Buyer shall no longer have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4; and

(d)        During the term of the Escrow, Seller shall not cause or permit title to the Land and Improvements to differ from the Condition of Title approved by Buyer pursuant to the foregoing, without Buyer’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Seller shall provide whatever documentation and indemnities that are necessary to cause the Title Policy to include a mechanic’s lien endorsement.

5.        Inspection Period. For a period of forty-five (45) days from the Opening of Escrow (“Inspection Period”), Buyer shall have the right to review and satisfy itself that the legal, economic and physical aspects of the Property and the acquisition terms and conditions are satisfactory to Buyer, including, without limitation, Buyer’s review of such audits, marketing studies, appraisals, environmental reports, inspections or investigations with respect to the Property and this transaction as Buyer deems necessary or desirable in the exercise of its sole discretion. Buyer’s obligations hereunder shall be conditioned upon Buyer’s satisfaction with or waiver of such matters, which satisfaction or waiver shall be in Buyer’s sole, absolute and nonreviewable discretion. Buyer shall have the right, exercisable by written notice delivered to Seller and Escrow Holder on or before the expiration of the Inspection Period, to terminate the Escrow, in which event the Deposit and the Additional Deposit and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall immediately be refunded by Escrow Holder to Buyer as its sole and exclusive remedy (unless due to a default under this Agreement by Seller), and thereafter this Agreement and the Escrow created pursuant hereto shall be deemed cancelled and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except as and to the extent otherwise expressly herein provided. If Buyer does not so terminate this Agreement, then Buyer shall no longer have the right to terminate the Escrow pursuant to this Section 5; provided, however, that Buyer shall continue to have the right to inspect the Property until the Closing of Escrow.

in which event Buyer’s Deposit and Additional Deposit plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be returned to Buyer and thereafter the Escrow, this Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate, except as and to the extent otherwise expressly herein provided.

(b)        In the event the conditions in Section 12(b), (c) or (d) are not satisfied or waived by the date that is thirty (30) after Completion of the Asset, Buyer, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect either of the following options by written notice thereof to Seller:

(i)        Terminate this Agreement, in which event Buyer’s Deposit and Additional Deposit plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be returned to Buyer and thereafter the Escrow, this Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate, except as and to the extent otherwise expressly herein provided;

(ii)        Waive any such unsatisfied conditions and proceed with Closing within five (5) business days after written notice thereof to Seller, in which event (A) Seller shall be obligated to complete the Approved Punchlist Work in full compliance with the terms and conditions of the Lease and pay for all costs in connection with Landlord’s Work, (B) Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer for any failure by Seller to complete the Approved Punchlist Work or pay for all costs associated with Landlord’s Work in full compliance with the terms and conditions of the Lease and (C) a portion of the Purchase Price equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the estimated amount of the aggregate of the Approved Punchlist Work plus any unpaid costs in connectin with Landlord’s Work (as determined by mutual agreement by Buyer and Seller; the “Holdback Amount”) shall be held in Escrow (the “Punchlist Escrow”) until Seller satisfies its obligations under clause (A) above and provides reasonable evidence to Buyer substantiating such satisfaction, at which time, the Punchlist Escrow shall be terminated and the amounts held therein shall be released to Seller; provided Buyer has not delivered written notice to Escrow Holder of a claim by FedEx in connection with the Approved Punchlist Work. If however, any such claim has been made by FedEx, two hundred percent (200%) of the amount (in no event to exceed the Holdback Amount) of all such claims shall remain in the Punchlist Escrow until resolution thereof between Buyer and Seller. Prior to Seller satisfying its obligations under clause (A) above and providing reasonable evidence to Buyer substantiating such satisfaction, in the event FedEx claims any default by Seller or “Landlord” (as defined in the Lease) with respect to the completion of such Approved Punchlist Work or otherwises begins to exercise FedEx’s rights or remedies with respect to the failure to complete such Approved Punchlist Work, then Buyer may terminate the Punchlist Escrow by written notice to Escrow Holder and Seller, in which event the Punchlist Escrow shall be terminated and the amounts held therein shall be released as follows: (I) to Buyer in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the estimated cost of the remaining Approved Punchlist Work and FedEx claims in connection therewith and (II) to Seller in an amount equal to the remaining funds in such Punchlist Escrow. In the event Buyer elects to terminate the Punchlist Escrow pursuant to the foregoing sentence, Seller shall no longer be obligated to complete any remaining portion of the Approved Punchlist Work. If a dispute arises over any claim to the Holdback Amount, Escrow Holder may, but is not required to, interplead the Holdback Amount with a court located within the County pending a determination with respect to such claim.
