Damage, Destruction and Condemnation (a) Seller will bear the risk of loss for any damage, destruction, or condemnation that may occur prior to Closing. If any portion of the Property is damaged or destroyed prior to Closing, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement, unless prior to Closing all that damage has been repaired and the Improvements restored or replaced to their condition prior to the damage. If any material portion of the Property is condemned or taken prior to Closing, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement.
(b) Purchaser's election under this Section with respect to any condemnation or taking will be exercised by written notice to Seller within twenty (20) days after written notice from Seller of the condemnation or taking. Purchaser's election under this Section with respect to any damage or destruction not repaired prior to Closing will be exercised by written notice to seller within twenty (20) days of the later to occur of:
(i) written notice from Seller of the damage or destruction and Seller's inability to repair and restore prior to Closing; or
(ii) written notice from Seller's insurance carrier regarding the estimated cost of repair, replacement, or reconstruction and the portion of the repair, replacement, or reconstruction for which insurance proceeds will be made available. The Closing Date will be extended as necessary to give Purchaser time to make the election.
(c) If Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement under this Section, neither party will have any further rights, duties, or obligations. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement will remain in full force and the purchase contemplated in this Agreement, less any interest taken by condemnation, will be effected, and at the Closing, Seller will pay the Purchaser the amount of any deductible under Seller's insurance policy and will assign, transfer, and set over to Purchaser all of Seller's right, title, and interest to any condemnation awards or insurance proceeds that have been or that may later be made for the taking or destruction.
Damage or Destruction Condemnation (a) The risk of loss, damage or destruction to the Property by fire or other casualty or the taking of all or part of the Property by condemnation or eminent domain or by an agreement in lieu thereof until the Closing is assumed by Seller, except to the extent otherwise provided in paragraph 6(d) of this Contract.
(b) In the event that the Property shall have been damaged or destroyed, the cost of repair or restoration of which would, in Buyer's and Seller's reasonable determination, exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) (the "Casualty Amount"), then at Buyer's election, Seller shall, unless Seller has previously repaired or restored the Property to its former condition, either (i) pay over or assign to Buyer, on delivery of the Deeds all amounts recovered or recoverable on account of any insurance, together with amounts equal to any deductibles thereunder, less any amounts reasonably expended by Seller for partial restoration, or (ii) direct Escrow Agent to return the Deposit to Buyer in which case all other obligations of the parties hereto shall cease and this Contract shall be void and without recourse to the parties hereto, except such liabilities and obligations as expressly survive termination of this Contract. If the Property, or any part thereof, suffers any damage, the cost of repair or restoration of which would, in Buyer's and Seller's reasonable estimation, be less than the Casualty Amount, then Buyer shall consummate the Closing, without reduction in the Purchase Price, and accept the assignment of all amounts recovered or recoverable on account of any insurance, together with the amount of any deductibles thereunder, less any amounts reasonably expended by Seller for partial restoration.
(c) If all or any portion of the Property is taken by condemnation, eminent domain or by agreement in lieu thereof, or any proceeding to acquire, take or condemn all or part of the Property is threatened or commenced, Buyer may either terminate this Contract (in which event Buyer shall be entitled to a return of the Deposit) or purchase the Property in accordance with the terms hereof, without reduction in the Purchase Price, together with an assignment of Seller's right to any award paid or payable by or on behalf of the condemning authority. If Seller has received payments from the condemning authority and if Buyer elects to purchase the Property, Seller shall credit the amount of said payments against the Purchase Price at the Closing.
(d) Seller shall immediately notify Buyer of any damage or destruction to the Property or any notice received by it or information or awareness acquired by it regarding the threatening of or commencement of condemnation or similar proceedings.
Casualty; Condemnation (a) If any condemnation or conveyance in lieu thereof of all or any portion of the Real Property occurs or is threatened prior to Closing (written notice of which shall be given to Purchaser by Seller promptly upon its receipt), Purchaser may at its option, either (i) terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller given within twenty (20) days after Purchaser is notified of such actual or possible proceedings (but before the Closing), in which case all of the Escrow Funds shall be returned to Purchaser and all further rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall terminate, except those expressly stated to survive termination, or (ii) proceed to Closing without abatement of the Purchase Price, in which case all proceeds or award (less any expenses incurred by Seller) shall be assigned to Purchaser. If any condemnation or conveyance in lieu thereof is presently pending or occurs after the date hereof, Seller shall not settle or agree to accept any compensation for same without Purchaser’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld.
(b) In the event of loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof which is not “major” (as hereinafter defined), this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and neither Purchaser nor Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and the parties shall nonetheless consummate this transaction in accordance with this Agreement, without any abatement of the Purchase Price or any liability or obligation on the part of Seller by reason of said damage except as set forth in the next sentence. In such event, the transaction shall proceed as contemplated herein, Seller shall provide a credit against the Purchase Price equal to Seller’s interest in insurance proceeds that have been collected by Seller and assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest in the proceeds to be paid on the claim of loss, less any sums expended by Seller prior to Closing in connection with its insurance claim (including any deductibles paid) or for the restoration or repair of the damaged Property.
(c) In the event of a “major” loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in which event the Escrow Funds shall be returned to Purchaser. If Purchaser does not give written notice of termination of this Agreement within twenty (20) days after Seller sends Purchaser written notice of the occurrence of major loss or damage, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with Closing, in which event, the transaction shall proceed as contemplated herein, Seller shall provide a credit against the Purchase Price equal to Seller’s interest in insurance proceeds that have been collected by Seller and assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest in the proceeds to be paid on the claim of loss, less any sums expended by Seller prior to Closing in connection with its insurance claim (including any deductibles paid) or for the restoration or repair of the damaged Property.
(d) For purposes of this Section 12, “major” loss or damage refers to loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof: (i) such that the cost of repair or restoration of the damage to a condition substantially identical to that prior to the event of damage would be, either be equal to or greater than $500,000 or require more than 120 days after the loss or damage to repair and restore, as determined by an independent appraiser chosen by Purchaser and reasonably acceptable to Seller, or (ii) having a material adverse impact upon the ability or feasibility of operating a nursing home facility on the Property, in substantially the same manner as the Property is being operated by Seller on the date hereof. Within ten (10) days after its occurrence, Seller shall give Purchaser written notice of any casualty and, if then available, an estimate of the restoration costs and time for restoration.
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES a.

This Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate reduction of the rent from the date of damage and while such repairs are being made, such proportionate reduction to be based upon the extent to which the damage and making of such repairs shall reasonably interfere with the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises as determined by Landlord. If the damage is due to the fault or neglect of Tenant or its employees, as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion, there shall be no reduction of rent. Landlord may authorize or direct construction of an alternative structure or may elect to retain any insurance proceeds received by it if Landlord deems reconstruction or construction of an alternative structure to be impractical or unreasonable in its sole discretion.
b. In the event the Premises are damaged to any extent as a result of any cause other than the perils covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, Landlord shall in its sole discretion have the option to: (1.) to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises within a reasonable time of the event causing the damage, in which case this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but the rent shall be proportionately reduced as provided above in 11a. during the period of such repair, reconstruction or restoration, or (2.) to give notice to Tenant at any time within sixty (60) days after such damage occurs, terminating this Lease as of the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no more than thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice. In the event of giving to Tenant such notice of termination, this Lease shall terminate and all interests of Tenant in the Premises shall cease on the date so specified in such notice and Tenant shall pay the rent, as proportionately reduced, based upon the extent, if any, to which such damage interfered with the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises, up to the date of such termination.
c. With regard to Landlord’s duty or option to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises within a reasonable time of the event causing the damage as provided in 11a. and b. above, Landlord shall act promptly and with due diligence, but Landlord shall not be responsible for delays caused by factors beyond Landlord’s control, including but not limited to delays because of strikes, work slowdowns or stoppages, accidents, acts of God, failure of any governmental or other authority to act in a timely manner, or delays caused by contractors. If such delays occur, Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be responsible for damages, nor shall Landlord be deemed to be in default under this Lease.
d. Landlord shall not be required to repair any damage by fire or other casualty, or to make any repair or replacements of any leasehold improvements, fixtures, or other personal property of Tenant.
