(c)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time after the Effective Date, any update to the Title Commitment or existing Survey discloses any additional item that materially adversely affects title to the Property which was not disclosed on the Title Commitment or Survey delivered to Purchaser by Seller (the “New Exception”), Purchaser shall have a period of five (5) days from the date of its receipt of such update (the “New Exception Review Period”) to review and notify Seller in writing of Purchaser’s approval or disapproval of the New Exception.  If Purchaser disapproves of the New Exception, Seller may, in Seller’s sole discretion, notify Purchaser as to whether it is willing to cure the New Exception.  If Seller elects to cure the New Exception, Seller shall be entitled to reasonable adjournments of the Closing Date to cure the New Exception, not to exceed 30 days in the aggregate.  If Seller fails to deliver a notice to Purchaser within three (3) days after the expiration of the New Exception Review Period, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the New Exception.  If Purchaser is dissatisfied with Seller’s response, or lack thereof, Purchaser may, as its exclusive remedy elect either:  (i) to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Earnest Money will be returned to Purchaser or (ii) to waive the New Exception and proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in which event Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the New Exception.  If Purchaser fails to notify Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing sentence within six (6) days after the expiration of the New Exception Review Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waive any objections to the New Exception.
 
4.1.4           Limitations of Seller’s Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller shall have no obligation to take any steps, bring any action or proceeding or incur any effort or expense whatsoever to eliminate, modify or cure any objection Purchaser may have pursuant to Section 4.1.1, Section 4.1.3, Section 4.2, or Section 5.1.
 
4.2           Inspection.  Purchaser may inspect, test, and survey: (a) the Property, (b) all financial records pertaining to the operation of the Property, and (c) photocopies of all Leases and Contracts in the possession of Seller, at any reasonable time during business hours at any time during the Approval Period (collectively, the “Purchaser Investigations”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser must obtain Seller’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, of the scope and method of any environmental testing or investigation (other than a non-intrusive Phase I environmental inspection) and any inspection which would materially alter the physical condition of the Property, prior to Purchaser’s commencement of such inspections or testing.  In any event, Seller and its representatives, agents, and/or contractors shall have the right to be present during any of the Purchaser Investigations.  If the Purchaser Investigations reveal any fact or condition unacceptable to Purchaser, Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing prior to the expiration of the Approval Period of such unacceptable fact or condition and Seller shall have the right (without any obligation to do so) to correct

4.2.1           i)           Before and during Purchaser Investigations, Purchaser and Purchaser's representatives, including Purchaser's engineers, contractors and environmental consultants (collectively, the “Purchaser Representatives”) conducting any Purchaser Investigation shall maintain workers’ compensation insurance in accordance with applicable law, and Purchaser, and the applicable Purchaser Representative conducting any Purchaser Investigation, shall maintain (1) commercial general liability insurance, on a per occurrence basis, with limits of at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) for bodily or personal injury or death, (2) property damage insurance in the amount of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), and (3) contractual liability insurance, on a per occurrence basis, with respect to Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 4.2. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller evidence of such workers’ compensation insurance and a certificate evidencing the commercial general liability, property damage and contractual liability insurance before conducting any Purchaser Investigation on the Property.  Each such insurance policy shall be written by a reputable insurance company having a rating of at least “A+:VII” by Best’s Rating Guide (or a comparable rating by a successor rating service), and shall otherwise be subject to Seller’s prior approval.  Such insurance policies shall name as additional insureds Seller, Lincoln Apartment Management Limited Partnership (“Property Manager”) and such other parties holding insurable interests as Seller may designate.  Such insurance shall be primary to any insurance maintained by Seller or Property Manager.
 
(b)           Purchaser shall, at its own expense, immediately fill and compact any holes, and otherwise restore any damage to the Property related to the Purchaser Investigations. Upon Purchaser’s completion of Purchaser Investigations, Purchaser shall be responsible for returning the Property to substantially the condition existing prior to Purchaser’s entry.  Neither Purchaser nor any Purchaser Representative shall damage any part of the Property or any personal property owned or held by Seller, Property Manager or any tenant or third party.

6.3           Proration.  All rents, other amounts payable by the tenants under the Leases, income, utilities and all other operating expenses with respect to the Property for the month in which the Closing occurs, and real estate and personal property taxes and other assessments with respect to the Property for the year in which the Closing occurs, shall be prorated to the date Seller receives the Purchase Price in immediately available funds with Seller receiving the benefits and burdens of ownership on the Closing Date.
 
(a)           If the Closing shall occur before rents and all other amounts payable by the tenants under the Leases and all other income from the Property have actually been paid for the month in which the Closing occurs, the apportionment of such rents and other amounts and other income shall be upon the basis of such rents, other amounts and other income actually received by Seller.  Subsequent to the Closing, if any such rents and other income are actually received by Purchaser, all such amounts shall first be applied to post closing rents due to Purchaser which are past due and the balance shall be immediately paid by Purchaser to Seller.  Purchaser shall make a good faith effort and attempt to collect any such rents and other amounts and other income not apportioned at the Closing for the benefit of Seller, however, Purchaser shall not be required to expend any funds or institute any litigation in its collection efforts.  Nothing in this Section 6.3(a) shall restrict Seller’s right to collect delinquent rents directly from a tenant by any legal means.

(c)           If the Closing shall occur before the actual amount of utilities and all other operating expenses with respect to the Property for the month in which the Closing occurs are determined, the apportionment of such utilities and other operating expenses shall be upon the basis of an estimate by Seller of such utilities and other operating expenses for such month.  Subsequent to the Closing, when the actual amount of such utilities and other operating expenses with respect to the Property for the month in which the Closing occurs are determined, the parties agree to adjust the proration of such utilities and other operating expenses and, if necessary, to refund or repay such sums as shall be necessary to effect such adjustment.

8.
DEFAULT
 
8.1           Breach by Seller.  In the event that Seller shall fail to consummate this Agreement for any reason, except Purchaser’s default or a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser or Seller pursuant to a right to do so under the provisions hereof, Purchaser, as its sole and exclusive remedy may either (a) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money together with reimbursement by Seller to Purchaser of Purchaser’s actual and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with this transaction in an amount not to exceed $50,000 in the aggregate, and neither party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder other than the Surviving Obligations, or (b) pursue the remedy of specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) Purchaser shall only be entitled to such remedy if (A) any such suit for specific performance is filed within sixty (60) days after Purchaser becomes aware of the default by Seller, (B) Purchaser is not in default under this Agreement, (C) Purchaser has tendered an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price to the Title Company in immediately available funds and the Title Company has acknowledged receipt of same, in writing, to Seller (such funds to be administered in the same manner as the Earnest Money as provided in Section 3.1), and (D) Purchaser has furnished ten (10) days prior written notice to Seller of its intent and election to seek specific enforcement of this Agreement; and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall not be obligated to expend any sums to cure any defaults under this Agreement and if Purchaser seeks specific performance under this Agreement, Purchaser agrees to accept the Property in its “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition.  Purchaser hereby agrees that prior to its exercise of any rights or remedies as a result of any defaults by Seller, Purchaser will first deliver written notice of said default to Seller, and if Seller so elects, Seller shall have the opportunity, but not the obligation, to cure such default within ten (10) days after Seller’s receipt of such notice.  In no event whatsoever shall Purchaser file any instrument of record against title to the Property; provided, however, Purchaser may file a lis pendens of this Agreement simultaneously with its filing of a suit for specific performance pursuant to this Section 8.1. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, in no event whatsoever shall Purchaser have the right to seek money damages of any kind as a result of any default by Seller under any of the terms of this Agreement, other than reimbursement of Purchaser’s actual and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses as described above.  In no event shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for any punitive, speculative or consequential damages.
 
 
Page 16

 
 
8.2           Breach by Purchaser.
 
(a)           If Purchaser fails to comply with any of the terms, conditions or obligations of this Agreement, Seller may terminate this Agreement and thereupon shall be entitled to the Earnest Money as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) and as Seller’s sole remedy and relief hereunder (except for the Surviving Obligations).  Seller and Purchaser have made this provision for liquidated damages because it would be difficult to calculate, on the date hereof, the amount of actual damages for such breach, and Seller and Purchaser agree that these sums represent reasonable compensation to Seller for such breach.
 
(b)           Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.2(a) above, the foregoing shall not in any way limit, affect or impair any of Purchaser’s indemnities as provided in Sections 4.2, 5.1, 6.3(b) or 10.2 of this Agreement.

10.2           Real Estate Commissions.  Seller shall pay to Cushman & Wakefield (hereinafter called “Agent” whether one or more) upon the Closing of the transaction contemplated hereby, and not otherwise, a cash commission in the amount agreed on in a separate listing agreement between Seller and Agent.  Said commission shall in no event be earned, due or payable unless and until the transaction contemplated hereby is closed and fully consummated strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Seller has received the Purchase Price in immediately available funds; if such transaction is not closed and fully consummated for any reason, including, without limitation, failure of title or default by Seller or Purchaser or termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof, then such commission will be deemed not to have been earned and shall not be due or payable.  Except as set forth above with respect to Agent, neither Seller nor Purchaser has authorized any broker or finder to act on Purchaser’s behalf in connection with the sale and purchase hereunder and neither Seller nor Purchaser has dealt with any broker or finder purporting to act on behalf of any other party.  Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses of any kind or character arising out of or resulting from any agreement, arrangement or understanding alleged to have been made by Purchaser or on Purchaser’s behalf with any broker or finder in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby.  Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses of any kind or character arising out of or resulting from any agreement, arrangement or understanding alleged to have been made by Seller or on Seller’s behalf with any broker or finder in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Section 10.2 shall survive the Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement.
 
10.3           Entire Agreement.  This Agreement embodies the entire agreement between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof, and there are no oral or written agreements between the parties, nor any representations made by either party relative to the subject matter hereof, which are not expressly set forth herein.
 
10.4           Amendment.  This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument executed by the party or parties to be bound thereby.
 
10.5           Headings.  The captions and headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and do not in any way limit, amplify, or otherwise modify the provisions of this Agreement.
 
10.6           Time of Essence.  Time is of the essence of this Agreement; however, if the final date of any period which is set out in any provision of this Agreement falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday under the laws of the United States or the State of South Carolina, then, in such event, the time of such period shall be extended to the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
 
10.7           Governing Law.  The validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement, or the rights, duties and relationship of the parties thereto, shall be governed by the laws of the State of South Carolina, without regard to the principles thereof regarding conflict of laws, and any applicable laws of the United States of America.

10.8           Successors and Assigns; Assignment.  This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of Seller and Purchaser and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, personal and legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.  Purchaser shall not assign Purchaser’s rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld absolutely; provided that Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement without any need for Seller’s consent to an entity controlled by, or under common control with, Purchaser so long as Purchaser gives notice of such assignment to Seller no later than five business days before the Closing Date.  In the event of any such assignment, Purchaser and such assignee shall execute and deliver an Assignment of Purchase and Sale Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.  Any subsequent assignment may be made only with the prior written consent of Seller.  No assignment of Purchaser’s rights hereunder shall relieve Purchaser of its liabilities under this Agreement.  This Agreement is solely for the benefit of Seller and Purchaser; there are no third party beneficiaries hereof.  Any assignment of this Agreement in violation of the foregoing provisions shall be null and void.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall be entitled to assign its rights under this Agreement to one or more entities prior to the Closing Date without the necessity of Purchaser’s consent, however, Seller shall not be released from its obligations under this Agreement.
 
10.9           Invalid Provision.  If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws, such provision shall be fully severable; this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement; and, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement.
 
10.10           Attorneys’ Fees.  In the event it becomes necessary for either party hereto to file suit to enforce this Agreement or any provision contained herein, the party prevailing in such suit shall be entitled to recover, in addition to all other remedies or damages, as provided herein, reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in such suit.
 
10.11           Multiple Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in a number of identical counterparts which, taken together, shall constitute collectively one (1) agreement; in making proof of this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart with each party’s signature.
 
10.12           Expiration.  The delivery of this Agreement to Seller shall constitute an offer which shall be automatically withdrawn, revoked and terminated unless Purchaser accepts the same by executing this Agreement and delivering one fully executed counterpart hereof to Seller prior to 4:00 p.m. New York time, the 23rd day of December, 2011.
