SURVEY, TITLE COMMITMENT AND INSPECTIONS

3.1 Purchaser and its agents and contractors may, during the period beginning on the Effective Date and continuing until 5 p.m. Eastern time on December 30, 2014 (such period, the “Inspection Period”) and thereafter through the day of Closing, enter upon the Property to conduct all inspections and investigations of the condition and all other aspects of the Property that it may deem necessary or desirable in its sole discretion, and to review (and Seller shall provide access to) all Leases, warranties, guaranties, service agreements, maintenance records, and utility invoices and other books, files and records as to the Property that are in Seller’s possession or control and which do not contain attorney/client-privileged information of the Seller. As of the Effective Date, Seller shall make available to Purchaser all such items described in the previous sentence (to the extent they are in Seller’s possession) (collectively, the “Seller’s Materials”). Additionally, as of the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser electronically the items set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto (“Seller’s Deliverables”). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not make any soil borings in the Property, or conduct any other invasive testing, sampling, or investigation at the Property without having received the written consent of Seller, which such consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole discretion. In all cases, Purchaser shall provide Seller notice of its intent to access the Property at least two days prior to its entry (or its agents’ or contractors’ entry) thereon, and shall not in any case be permitted to inspect occupied units unless accompanied by a representative of Seller or its property management company (provided Seller shall make such a representative available reasonably promptly upon request by Purchaser for such access). Purchaser hereby covenants and agrees to promptly restore the Property to its original condition following any activity of Purchaser thereon, and to indemnify and hold harmless Seller from any and all loss, liability, costs, claims, demands, damages, causes of action and suits arising out of the exercise by Purchaser of Purchaser’s rights under this Section 3.1. Purchaser shall conduct all tests, investigations and studies of the Property in a manner which does not unreasonably interfere with any residential tenant’s quiet enjoyment of the Property, and shall not permit

 

- 3 -


any liens to attach to the Property in connection with its exercise of its rights under this Section 3.1 or any other activity it conducts on the Property prior to Closing. Prior to its entry on the Property, Purchaser shall provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Seller of Purchaser’s maintenance of: (i) Commercial General Liability insurance (“CGL Insurance”) with limits of liability not less than $5,000,000 per occurrence with a general aggregate of not less than $5,000,000, and (ii) Umbrella Liability insurance (“Umbrella Liability Insurance”) with limits of liability not less than $25,000,000 per occurrence that applies on a “following form” basis. With respect to CGL Insurance and Umbrella Liability Insurance, Seller shall be named as an additional insured. In addition, the CGL Insurance and the Umbrella Liability Insurance: (a) must be endorsed to be primary and non-contributory, rather than excess, with respect to Seller’s additional insured status; (b) endorsed to provide cross-liability coverage if they do not contain a standard ISO separation of insureds provision; (c) shall not contain any endorsement or provision that states the limits of the policy will not stack, pyramid, or be addition to any other limits provided by that insurer, and (d) have no cross suits exclusion, or any similar exclusion that excludes coverage for claims brought by an additional insured under the policy against another insured under the policy.

3.2 Seller has delivered, or shall deliver to Purchaser’s counsel within one (1) business day of the Effective Date, a copy of the most recent owner’s title insurance policy for the Property (which may have the amount of the policy redacted) and a copy of Seller’s most recent as-built survey of the Property which is dated March 11, 2013. During the Inspection Period, but no later than December 16, 2014, Purchaser shall obtain, at Purchaser’s expense, a current commitment for title insurance (the “Title Commitment”) and an update to Seller’s most recent as-built survey of the Property (such update, the “Survey”). On or prior to December 16, 2014 (“Objection Deadline”), Purchaser, in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, shall notify Seller, in writing, of such objections as Purchaser may have to anything contained in the Title Commitment and the Survey. In the event Purchaser notifies Seller of objections to title or survey prior to the Objection Deadline, Seller will have the right, but not the obligation (other than with respect to Must Cure Items as defined hereinbelow), to cure such objections. Within five (5) days after receipt of Purchaser’s notice of objections, Seller will notify Purchaser in writing if Seller elects to attempt to cure such objections to the sole satisfaction of Purchaser, and if so, which objections Seller elects to cure (“Seller’s Cure Notice”). If Seller provides no Seller’s Cure Notice, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure such objections, other than Must Cure Items. If Seller elects in its Seller’s Cure Notice to cure any such objections, Seller will have until three (3) days before the Closing Date to attempt to remove, satisfy or cure the same (provided that Monetary Liens, as hereafter defined, may be cured by Seller as of the Closing Date as set forth hereinbelow). If Seller elects not to cure (or is deemed to have elected not to cure) any such objections, Purchaser will have the option, to be exercised by written notice given to Seller on or before the last day of the Inspection Period, to terminate this Agreement by sending written notice thereof to Seller, and upon delivery of such notice of termination, this Agreement will terminate and the Earnest Money will be promptly returned to Purchaser, and thereafter neither party hereto will have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except with respect to the rights, obligations, and liabilities described in Article 3 and Section 9.1 that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement as hereinabove set forth in connection with Seller’s election (or deemed election) not to cure title objections, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected

 

- 4 -


to accept a conveyance of the Property subject to the exceptions which will not be addressed, specifically including any matter objected to by Purchaser (other than Must Cure Items) that Seller is unwilling or unable to cure (and with respect to which Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its objection). If Seller, after having elected to cure any objection identified by Purchaser prior to the Objection Deadline, cannot or does not cure such matter on or before the date that is three (3) days prior to the Closing Date (other than Monetary Liens (as hereafter defined), which may be cured concurrently with Closing), Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by sending written notice of such termination to Seller no later than the date that is two (2) days prior to the Closing Date, and pursue any other right pursuant to Section 10.1 below. Seller must satisfy all Monetary Liens in full, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, at or prior to the Closing; in the event Seller fails to do so, Purchaser may, at its option, elect either: (a) to close the transaction as otherwise contemplated hereby, and satisfy any such Monetary Lien itself at Closing, in which event the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of money so expended by Purchaser, or (b) terminate this Agreement by sending written notice to Seller, and upon delivery of such notice of termination, pursue any other Purchaser’s rights pursuant to Section 10.1 below. Upon Purchaser’s election to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.2, the Earnest Money will be promptly returned to Purchaser, and thereafter neither party hereto will have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except with respect to the rights, obligations, and liabilities that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. As used herein, a “Must Cure Item” is (i) any matter first affecting title to the Property after the Effective Date as a result of Seller’s willful action (which such action or matter has not been previously approved or consented to by Purchaser in writing), or (ii) a Monetary Lien. As used herein, a “Monetary Lien” is a lien, claim or encumbrance that evidences or secures a fixed monetary amount other than ad valorem real property taxes (excluding any such liens or encumbrances arising as a result of Purchaser’s activity on or with respect to the Property, which such liens shall be removed promptly by Purchaser following the notice of imposition thereof).

If Purchaser shall obtain any revision or update to the Title Commitment or Survey, and such revision or update shall disclose any exception, defect, objection, matter or state of facts not initially shown on the Title Commitment or Survey, Purchaser shall have the right to provide written notice of objection thereto (an “Updated Objection Notice”) to Seller within five (5) days following Purchaser’s becoming aware thereof. Within five (5) days following Seller’s receipt of such Updated Objection Notice, Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing if Seller elects to attempt to cure such objections (provided that in all events, Seller shall be obligated to cure Must Cure Items as set forth hereinabove), and Purchaser shall have the same rights and remedies in connection with Seller’s cure or non-cure of such matters as are hereinabove described in connection with title and survey matters identified on or before the Objection Deadline (provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller elects not to cure (or is deemed to have elected not to cure, by its failure to provide a Seller’s Cure Notice) any Purchaser objection identified in an Updated Objection Notice, Purchaser must exercise its option to terminate this Agreement no later than two (2) business days following Purchaser’s receipt of such response (or deemed response) from Seller. To the extent Purchaser fails to provide an Updated Objection Notice with respect to any new exception, defect, objection, matter or state of facts not initially shown on the Title Commitment or Survey within five (5) days of becoming aware thereof, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its objection thereto. Closing shall be extended on a day-for-day basis if required in order to permit the parties to exercise their rights described in this paragraph.

 

- 5 -


Any matter contained in the Title Commitment or shown on the Survey, or any revision or update thereto, to which Purchaser does not object during the Inspection Period or to which Purchaser is deemed to have waived its objection pursuant to the terms hereof, will be deemed a “Permitted Exception.”

3.3 The cost of the inspections, tests, investigations and interviews undertaken by Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Article 3 shall be borne solely by Purchaser and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all loss, costs and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, for the costs of such inspections, tests and investigations and for damage to persons or property caused by Purchaser’s inspection, testing and investigation of the Property. The right of access to the Property granted hereby shall in no way be construed as giving Purchaser possession of or any legal or equitable title to the Property prior to the Closing.

3.4 The indemnification obligations contained in this Article 3 shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

3.5 On or before the last day of the Inspection Period, Purchaser will advise Seller in writing of which Service Contracts or Personalty Leases, if any, it wishes Seller to terminate and, to the extent such Service Contracts or Personalty Leases can be terminated without payment or penalty by Seller, Seller shall deliver notice of termination pursuant to the terms of such Service Contracts or Personalty Leases no later than three (3) business days after the last day of the Inspection Period. Purchaser shall assume the obligations of Seller under any Service Contracts and Personalty Leases not terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, including any Service Contracts or Personalty Leases terminable only upon payment of a penalty. If any Service Contract or Personalty Lease which Purchaser has designated for termination is not immediately terminable as of Closing (by delivery of a notice of termination by Seller no later than three (3) business days after the last day of the Inspection Period), Purchaser shall assume all obligations of Seller thereunder for the period of time between the Closing Date and the date on which such Service Contract or Personalty Lease terminates following Seller’s termination notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller covenants and agrees that effective as of (or prior to) the Closing Date, it shall terminate any property management agreement and any brokerage or listing agreement then in effect with respect to the Property, and shall bear all costs with respect thereto (which shall not be subject to the cap of liability provided in Section 10.1) which obligation shall survive the Closing.

3.6 If for any reason or no reason, Purchaser, in its sole discretion, is not satisfied with the Property or otherwise decides not to proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for any reason, or no reason, in Purchaser’s sole discretion, then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller at any time prior to expiration of the Inspection Period, and Escrow Agent, upon receipt of such notice, shall immediately refund the Deposit to Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to notify Seller in writing prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period that Purchaser waives its termination right pursuant to this Section

 

- 6 -


3.6, Purchaser shall be deemed to have terminated this Agreement under this Section 3.6 as if Purchaser shall have delivered a notice of termination prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period as aforesaid, and the Deposit shall immediately be delivered to Purchaser.

4.

COMMISSIONS

9.1 Seller and Purchaser each warrant and represent to each other that no realtor, broker, finder, or other intermediary has been involved with or employed by such party in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, other than CBRE, Inc.

10.

TERMINATION AND REMEDIES

10.1 If, prior to or at Closing: (a) Seller defaults hereunder and shall have failed to perform, in any material respect, any of the covenants or agreements contained herein which are to be performed by Seller, or if any warranty or representation made by Seller herein is not true and correct in all material respects as of Closing, and (b) in all cases other than the Seller’s failure to fully perform its obligations at Closing pursuant to Article 6 of this Agreement in the absence of Purchaser’s default, Seller has not cured any such default within five (5) business days of having received written notice thereof from Purchaser, Purchaser

 

- 17 -


may, as its sole remedy, either (i) terminate this Agreement and receive an immediate refund of the Deposit from Escrow Agent or (ii) seek specific performance of this Agreement and, in either case, recover from Seller all of Purchaser’s reasonable third party expenses (in no event to exceed $75,000) actually incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and as a result of such default or non-performance including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs. If the Closing shall have occurred and Seller shall have defaulted hereunder by its failure to have performed any of the covenants or agreements contained herein which are to be performed after Closing, or defaults hereunder because any warranty or representation made by Seller herein is found to have not been true and correct in any material respect when made or as of Closing, Purchaser may seek to enforce its remedies under applicable law, subject to the limitations imposed by Section 8.1 of this Agreement. Seller shall be liable only for direct and actual damages suffered by Buyer on account of Seller’s default in an amount equal to or in excess of Fifty Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($50,000), but in no event shall Seller be liable for any such damages in an amount exceeding Five Hundred Fifty Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($550,000). In no event shall Seller be liable for any indirect, consequential or punitive damages on account of Seller’s breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement. During the pendency of the Survival Period, Seller shall (i) not dissolve and shall maintain its existence as a limited liability company, and (ii) maintain at least $550,000 in liquid assets in an account segregated from any assets of any of Seller’s affiliates or any operating account or other active account of Seller, which obligations shall survive Closing and the recordation of the deed.

10.2 If Purchaser has not terminated this Agreement pursuant to any of the provisions authorizing such termination, and, prior to or at Closing: (a) Purchaser defaults hereunder in any material respect, fails to perform any of the covenants or agreements contained herein which are to be performed by Purchaser, or if any warranty or representation made by Purchaser herein is not true and correct in all material respects as of Closing, and (b) in all cases other than the Purchaser’s failure to fully perform its obligations at Closing pursuant to Article 6 of this Agreement in the absence of Seller’s default, Purchaser has not cured any such default within five (5) business days of having received written notice thereof from Seller, then Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit together with any interest earned thereon, to Seller, as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy, as liquidated damages, due to the inconvenience of ascertaining and measuring actual damages, and the uncertainty thereof. If, after Closing Purchaser defaults hereunder by its failure to have performed any of the covenants or agreements contained herein which are to be performed after Closing or defaults hereunder because any warranty or representation made by Purchaser herein is not true and correct in any material respect as of Closing, Seller may seek to enforce its remedies under applicable law, subject to the limitations imposed by Section 8.1 of this Agreement. In no event shall Purchaser be liable for any indirect, consequential or punitive damages on account of Purchaser’s breach of any representation, warranty or obligation contained in this Agreement.

11.

RISK OF LOSS

11.1 If any time prior to the Closing any portion of the Property is destroyed or damaged by fire or any other casualty whatsoever, Seller shall give notice thereof to Purchaser within five (5) business days after Seller becomes aware of such casualty, but in any event prior to Closing. The rights and obligations of the parties by reason of such destruction or damage shall be as follows:

(a) If the “cost of repair and restoration” (as such term is defined in Section 11.2) of such destruction or damage shall be $1,000,000.00 or less, Seller shall repair such damage as promptly as is reasonably possible, restoring the damaged Property to as close as reasonably possible to its condition immediately prior to such damage; and in such event, Purchaser may elect to defer Closing until such repair is made to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction or, if the repair is not completed by the date proscribed for Closing, Purchaser may elect to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and (i) if such destruction or damage is covered by insurance, receive all insurance proceeds not yet paid for such damage and Seller shall pay or credit Purchaser an amount equal to any deductible (less the actual and reasonable third party costs and expenses incurred by Seller in connection with repairs performed) and to the extent the same may be necessary or appropriate, Seller shall assign to Purchaser at Closing Seller’s rights to such proceeds or (ii) if such destruction or damage is not covered by insurance, receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the cost of repair and restoration thereof not then completed;

(b) If the “cost of repair and restoration” of such destruction or damage shall exceed $1,000,000.00, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit; and if Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement, the Closing shall occur as scheduled, whereupon Seller shall assign to Purchaser, at Closing, all insurance proceeds payable for such damage, and shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to any deductible and the sale shall be closed without Seller’s repairing such damage. In the event Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.1(b), this Agreement shall be rendered null and void and the parties shall have no further obligations or liabilities hereunder other than Purchaser’s right to receive a refund of the Deposit.

11.2 The term “cost of repair and restoration” shall mean an estimate of the actual cost of repair and restoration obtained by Seller within twenty (20) days of the occurrence of such destruction or damage, from a reputable third-party contractor, reasonably acceptable to both Purchaser and Seller, regularly doing business in the city in which the Property is located. If the Closing Date is to occur within (25) twenty-five days of the occurrence of the casualty, Purchaser shall have the right to defer the Closing by the amount of time required to obtain and assess the cost of repair and restoration estimate.

11.3 If (i) the whole or any part of the Property or any interest in the Property is taken by condemnation or right of eminent domain prior to Closing and (ii) such taking by condemnation or right of eminent domain results in (A) the taking of all or any part of the Improvements, (B) the loss of any parking spaces or other areas which causes the Property not to comply with then applicable zoning ordinances or other applicable laws, rules or regulations, or (C) a permanent loss of any means of vehicular access to the Property, at Purchaser’s option this Agreement shall terminate and the Purchaser shall receive a refund of the Deposit. If Purchaser elects not to terminate this Agreement or does not have the right to do so under this Section 11.3, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be

 

- 19 -


closed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement notwithstanding any such taking but at Closing Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s rights to collect any awards which may be payable as a result of, or recoverable against others for, such taking.

11.4 Seller shall not settle any insurance claim with respect to casualty or condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Property during the pendency of this Agreement without Purchaser’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

11.5 The provisions of this Article 11 shall control the rights and duties of the parties, in lieu of any contrary provisions of law.

12.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT

13.1 This Agreement and the exhibits attached hereto contain the entire agreement between the parties. No modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be of any force or effect unless made in writing and executed by Purchaser and Seller. Further, the prevailing party in litigation between the parties shall be entitled to recover, as a part of its judgment, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses.

14.

MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller’s obligations under this Agreement are contingent upon Seller’s receipt of the written approval of the board of directors of CNL Growth Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation

 

- 21 -


(the “Board Approval”), the parent company of GR-105 LPHC, LLC, the managing member of the Seller, by the earlier of (a) the date that is five (5) days following the Effective Date and (b) noon Eastern Standard Time on December 1, 2014 (the “Board Approval Deadline”). No later than the Board Approval Deadline, Seller shall notify Purchaser whether it has received, or failed to receive, the Board Approval. If Seller fails to notify Purchaser that the Board Approval was not received by the Board Approval Deadline, then the provisions of this Section 14.1 shall be of no force and effect and this Agreement shall continue pursuant to the terms hereof. If the Board Approval shall not have been received by the Board Approval Deadline and Seller notifies Purchaser that the Board Approval shall not have been received on or before the Board Approval Deadline, either Purchaser or Seller, in its sole discretion, may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other provided no later than two (2) business days following the Board Approval Deadline, the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser, and no party hereto shall have any obligation to the other except for those obligations under Article 3 and Section 9.1 hereof that expressly survive termination of the Agreement. If Board Approval is received on or before the Board Approval Deadline, if Seller fails to notify Purchaser that the Board Approval has not been received on or before the Approval Deadline or if neither Purchaser nor Seller terminate this Agreement within the two (2) business day period set forth above, Seller and Purchaser shall proceed toward Closing pursuant to all other terms and conditions of this Agreement.

14.2 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts which together shall constitute the agreement of the parties. The parties further agree that the delivery of a party’s signature by facsimile or other electronic transmittal (including electronic mail) shall have the same legal effect as the delivery of such party’s original signature, and the parties may rely upon the binding and enforceable effect of such delivery. The article headings herein contained are for purposes of identification only and shall not be considered in construing this Agreement.

14.3 This Agreement, and the rights and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by Purchaser without the express written consent of the Seller, which may be granted or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion; provided that no such consent shall be required and Purchaser shall be entitled to freely assign this Agreement to: (i) any entity that is directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with Sentinel Acquisitions Corp. or Sentinel Real Estate Corporation or (ii) any commingled investment fund that is managed directly or indirectly by Sentinel Acquisitions Corp. or Sentinel Real Estate Corporation or any permitted assignee under clause (i) above. An assignment of this Agreement by Purchaser shall not release Purchaser from its obligations hereunder.

14.4 Whenever any determination is to be made or action is to be taken on a date specified in this Agreement, if such date shall fall on Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday under the laws of the state in which the Property is located, then in such event said date shall be extended to the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. All references in this Agreement to “the date hereof,” “the date of this Agreement,” or similar references shall be deemed to refer to the Effective Date. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of South Carolina.

 

- 22 -


14.5 This Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, personal representative, successors and assigns whenever the context so requires or admits. It has been negotiated by the parties hereto and by the respective attorneys for each party, and in the event of a dispute concerning the interpretation of this Agreement, each party hereby waives the doctrine that an ambiguity shall be interpreted against the party which has drafted the document. This Agreement may not be amended, altered or modified unless the party against whom enforcement of any waiver, modification or discharge is sought does so in writing.

14.6 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller or Purchaser (as applicable, the “Exchanging Party”) may consummate the purchase or sale, respectively, of the Property or any portion of the Property as part of a so called like-kind exchange (the “Exchange”) pursuant to §1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), but only so long as: (i) the Closing is not delayed or materially affected by reason of the Exchange, it being agreed that the consummation or accomplishment of the Exchange is not a condition precedent or condition subsequent to any party’s obligations under this Agreement; (ii) the Exchanging Party may effect the Exchange through an assignment of this Agreement, or its rights under this Agreement, to a Qualified Intermediary; and (iii) the Exchanging Party pays any reasonable additional out-of-pocket costs that would not otherwise have been incurred by the other party had the Exchanging Party not consummated its purchase or sale through the Exchange. The non-Exchanging Party shall not by this Agreement or acquiescence to the Exchange: (1) have its rights under this Agreement affected or diminished in any manner, or (2) be responsible for compliance with or be deemed to have warranted to the Exchanging Party that the Exchange in fact complies with §1031 of the Code.

14.7 The following Exhibits have been attached to this Agreement and incorporated herein by reference:

AMENDMENT TO PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

This Amendment to Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Amendment”) made effective as of the 17th day of December, 2014 between GR-105 Long Point Venture, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”) and Sentinel Acquisitions Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”).

WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, Seller and Purchaser have entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement effective as of November 26, 2014 (the “Agreement”) with respect to certain real property and improvements and related assets commonly known as Woodfield Long Point Apartments, having a principal address of 335 Stonewall Court, Mt. Pleasant, SC 29464 (as more fully described in the Agreement, the “Property”);

WHEREAS, Seller and Purchaser desire to amend the Agreement as more fully set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.

2. As the surveyor that prepared Seller’s latest existing survey of the Property is unable to provide an update to said survey within the time periods otherwise provided in this Agreement, the first grammatical paragraph of Section 3.2 of the Agreement is deemed deleted and the following inserted in lieu thereof:

“3.2 Seller has delivered, or shall deliver to Purchaser’s counsel within one (1) business day of the Effective Date, a copy of the most recent owner’s title insurance policy for the Property (which may have the amount of the policy redacted) and a copy of Seller’s most recent as-built survey of the Property which is dated March 11, 2013. During the Inspection Period, but no later than December 16, 2014, Purchaser shall obtain, at Purchaser’ expense, a current commitment for title insurance (the “Title Commitment”) and during the Inspection Period, Seller shall obtain at Seller’s cost (except that Purchaser shall pay one-half of the cost of same but not more than $12,375), a new survey of the Property pursuant to the proposal of David L. Gray of GPA dated December 3, 2014 and containing the following additional “Table A” Requirements 7(b), 7(c), 14, 17, 18 and 19 (which are not listed on said proposal) (the “New Survey”). On or prior to December 24, 2014 (the “Objection Deadline”), Purchaser, in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, shall notify Seller, in writing, of such objections as Purchaser may have to anything contained in the Title Commitment or by the unsigned copy of the survey of the Property delivered by Seller to Purchaser and prepared by Forsberg Engineering and Surveying, Inc. dated March 11, 2013 and last revised April 1, 2013 (the “Survey”). Purchaser reserves all rights pursuant to the second grammatical paragraph of this Section 3.2 with respect to any exception, defect, objection, matter or state of facts


that may be shown by the New Survey and which is not shown by the Survey, except that Purchaser shall not object to the mere existence of the second dog park at the Property which, Seller represents, was constructed after the issuance of the Survey. The foregoing shall not constitute a waiver of any of Purchaser’s rights pursuant to this Section 3.2 (or otherwise) if the New Survey discloses that such second dog park to violate a setback, easement or any other restriction, agreement or requirement applicable to the Property or if it is determined that said second dog park shall be found to not be in compliance with any applicable legal requirements or the requirements of any applicable restrictions, covenants, conditions, agreements or approvals. Within five (5) days after receipt of Purchaser’s notice of objections aforesaid, Seller will notify Purchaser in writing if Seller elects to attempt to cure such objections to the sole satisfaction of Purchaser, and if so, which objections Seller elects to cure (“Seller’s Cure Notice”). If Seller provides no Seller’s Cure Notice, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure such objections, other than Must Cure Items (as hereinafter defined). If Seller elects in its Seller’s Cure Notice to cure any such objections, Seller will have until three (3) days before the Closing Date to attempt to remove, satisfy or cure the same (provided that Monetary Liens may be cured by Seller as of the Closing Date as set forth hereinbelow). If Seller elects not to cure (or is deemed to have elected not to cure) any such objections, Purchaser will have the option, to be exercised by written notice given to Seller within five (5) days of Seller’s cure notice (or within ten (10) days of Purchaser’s notice of such objections if Seller shall not have timely delivered a Seller’s Cure Notice), to terminate this Agreement by sending written notice thereof to Seller, and upon delivery of such notice of termination, this Agreement will terminate and the Earnest Money will be promptly returned to Purchaser, and thereafter neither party hereto will have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except with respect to the rights, obligations, and liabilities described in Article 3 and Section 9.1 that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement as hereinabove set forth in connection with Seller’s election (or deemed election) not to cure title objections, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to accept a conveyance of the Property subject to the exceptions which will not be addressed, specifically including any matter objected to by Purchaser (other than Must Cure Items) that Seller is unwilling or unable to cure (and with respect to which Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its objection). If Seller, after having elected to cure any objection identified by Purchaser prior to the Objection Deadline, cannot or does not cure such matter on or before the date that is three (3) days prior to the Closing Date (other than Monetary Liens (as hereafter defined), which may be cured concurrently with Closing), Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by sending written notice of such termination to Seller no later than the Closing Date, and pursue any other right pursuant to Section 10.1 below. Seller must satisfy all Monetary Liens in full, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, at or prior to the Closing; in the event Seller fails to do so, Purchaser may, at its option, elect either: (a) to close the transaction as otherwise contemplated hereby, and satisfy any such Monetary Lien itself at Closing, in which event the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of money so expended by Purchaser, or (b) terminate this Agreement by sending written notice to Seller, and upon delivery of such notice of termination, pursue any other Purchaser’s rights pursuant to Section 10.1 below. Upon Purchaser’s election to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.2, the Earnest Money will be promptly

returned to Purchaser, and thereafter neither party hereto will have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except with respect to the rights, obligations, and liabilities that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. As used herein, a “Must Cure Item” is (i) any matter first affecting title to the Property after the Effective Date as a result of Seller’s willful action (which such action or matter has not been previously approved or consented to by Purchaser in writing), or (ii) a Monetary Lien. As used herein, a “Monetary Lien” is a lien, claim or encumbrance that evidences or secures a fixed monetary amount other than ad valorem real property taxes (excluding any such liens or encumbrances arising as a result of Purchaser’s activity on or with respect to the Property, which such liens shall be removed promptly by Purchaser following the notice of imposition thereof).”

3. Seller received Board Approval as contemplated by Section 14.1 of the Agreement on or before the Approval Deadline. Accordingly, Section 14.1 is of no force and effect.

4. All references to “Sentinel Acquisitions Corporation” in the Agreement shall be deemed replaced by “Sentinel Acquisitions Corp.”, the proper name of Purchaser.

5. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each counterpart constituting an original and together constituting one document. Delivery by facsimile or by e-mail of signed copies of this Amendment shall have the same force and effect as delivery of signed originals.
