Title Defect Adjustments Clause Samples

The Title Defect Adjustments clause outlines the procedures for addressing and resolving issues related to defects in the title of a property or asset being transferred. Typically, this clause specifies how parties should notify each other of discovered title defects, the timeframe for making such notifications, and the methods for curing or compensating for these defects, such as price adjustments or corrective actions. Its core practical function is to ensure that both parties have a clear process for handling title issues, thereby reducing uncertainty and allocating risk associated with potential defects in ownership or encumbrances.
Title Defect Adjustments. (a) No action (including no adjustment to the Purchase Price) shall be required under Section 5.02(c) below in respect of any individual Title Defect unless the value of such Title Defect equals or exceeds a threshold of (■) with respect to a Property. With respect to all Title Defects meeting such threshold, no action (including no adjustment to the Purchase Price) shall be required under Section 5.02(c) except and only to the extent that the aggregate value of all such Title Defects and all timely asserted Adverse Environmental Conditions meeting the individual claim threshold set forth in Section 6.02(a), net of all Title Benefit Offsets, exceeds a deductible equal to one and (■) of the Purchase Price as to all Seller Parties. (b) Buyer shall give Seller written notice of any Title Defects alleged by Buyer within forty-five (45) days after the Execution Date. Such notice (a “Defect Notice”) shall be in writing and shall include: (i) a description of each Title Defect; (ii) the Allocated Value of the Properties affected by each Title Defect; (iii) the amount by which Buyer believes the Allocated Value of each of such Properties has been reduced because of each Title Defect, and (iv) documentation or other evidence reasonably supporting Buyer’s assertion of each Title Defect and the reduction in Allocated Value asserted pursuant to the preceding clause (iii) with respect thereto, including the specific computations on which Buyer is relying for such reduction. For the purposes of this Section 5.02(b), Buyer shall be deemed to have waived all Title Defects of which Seller has not been given timely notice and all Title Defects that do not meet the requirements set forth in Section 5.02(a). All adjustments to the Purchase Price based on Title Defects will be based on the Allocated Values attributable to the affected Properties. Upon timely delivery of a Defect Notice under this Section 5.02, Buyer and Seller Party will in good faith negotiate the validity of the Title Defect and the amount of any adjustment to the Purchase Price using the following criteria: (i) If the alleged Title Defect is based on owning a Net Revenue Interest in a Property which is less than the Net Revenue Interest percentage necessary for the Seller Party to have had Good and Defensible Title in such Property, then a downward adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be calculated by multiplying the Allocated Value set forth on Schedule 5.01(a-1) or Schedule 5.01(a-2) for such Property b...

Title Defect Adjustments. (a) No adjustment to the Purchase Price for Title Defects shall be made unless and until, and only to the extent that the individual value of each Title Defect exceeds $25,000.00 or the aggregate value of all Title Defects exceeds one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price. (b) Buyer shall give Seller written notice of Title Defects ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date. Such notice shall be in writing and shall include (i) a description of the Title Defect, (ii) the Allocated Value of the Well affected by the Title Defect and (iii) the amount by which Buyer believes the Allocated Value of such Well has been reduced because of such Title Defect. Buyer shall be deemed to have waived all Title Defects of which Seller has not been given timely notice by Buyer and all Title Defects that do not meet the thresholds for an adjustment to the Purchase Price set forth in Section 5.2(a). (c) Subject to the limitation contained in Section 5.2(a), a Well affected by a Title Defect and the Leases comprising the production unit or proration unit for the Well shall be excluded from the Interests to be purchased by Buyer hereunder and the Purchase Price shall be reduced in accordance with Section 2.2 by an amount equal to the Allocated Value of such Well unless prior to closing, (i) the Title Defect has been removed, (ii) Buyer

Title Defect Adjustments. Title Defect Adjustments shall be determined as follows: iIf, because of a Title Defect, title to one or more Title Defect Properties fails completely with the effect that Seller has no ownership interest in the relevant Asset, the adjustment to the Purchase Price attributable to such Title Defect shall be the Allocated Value of the affected Assets. iiIf the Title Defect consists of a lien, encumbrance, or other charge upon the Title Defect Property which is undisputed and liquidated in amount, the adjustment to the Purchase Price attributable to such Title Defect shall be the amount necessary to pay the obligee to remove such Title Defect, not to exceed the Allocated Value of such Asset. iiiIf Seller’s actual net revenue interest in all or a portion of the Assets is less than eighty percent (80%) after giving effect to the Conveyance of ORRI, the adjustment to the Purchase Price attributable to such Title Defect shall be an amount equal to (A) the ratio of (x) the difference obtained by subtracting the actual net revenue interest for such Assets from eighty percent (80%), to (y) eighty percent (80%), (B) multiplied by the Allocated Value of such Asset.

Title Defect Adjustments. (a) A Title Defect shall not be considered for adjustment unless such Title Defect results, in Buyer's good faith and reasonable calculation, in a reduction in the Allocated Value of a Leasehold Interest in excess of $25,000.00. "Allocated Value" of a Leasehold Interest, as used in this Agreement, means the value allocated to each Leasehold Interest as set forth in EXHIBIT A-II hereto.

Title Defect Adjustments. Upon timely delivery of a notice of a Title Defect under Section 5.9(a), Purchaser and the Company will in good faith negotiate the validity of the Claim and the amount of any adjustment to the Base Consideration using the following criteria: (i) If the requested adjustment is based on the Company or the Subsidiary owning an NRI for a well, Unit or Lease less than that shown in Schedule 1.1, and the Aggregate Defect Threshold has been met (after including the requested adjustment), then a downward adjustment shall be calculated by multiplying the Allocated Value set forth for such well, Unit, or Lease on Schedule 1.1 by a fraction (1) the numerator of which is an amount equal to the NRI shown on Schedule 1.1 for such well, Unit, or Lease less the decimal share to which the Company or the Subsidiary would be entitled as a result of its ownership interest in such well, Unit, or Lease which is unaffected by such Title Defect, and (2) the denominator of which is the NRI shown for such well, Unit, or Lease on Schedule 1.1. Any downward adjustments requested by Purchaser may be offset by upward adjustments if it is determined that the Company's or the Subsidiary's NRI for any other well, Unit, or Lease shown on Schedule 1.1 is greater than that shown on Schedule 1.1. The value of an upward adjustment will be determined based on the Allocated Value for such well, Unit, or Lease; (ii) If the requested adjustment is based on the Company or the Subsidiary owning a WI that is larger than the WI shown on Schedule 1.1, but without a proportionate increase in the Company's or the Subsidiary's NRI, and the Aggregate Defect Threshold has been met (after including the requested adjustment), then the adjustment is calculated as the positive difference (if any) obtained by subtracting (A) a recalculated Allocated Value for such well, Unit, or Lease using the same production rates, pricing, costs, tax forecasts, and discount factors, as shown on Schedule 1.1, used to calculate the original Allocated Value for such well, Unit, or Lease adjusted to account for the diminution in the net present value of the future cash flows that results from the higher expense-bearing interest, from (B) the Allocated Value for such well, Unit, or Lease set forth on Schedule 1.1; (iii) If the requested adjustment is based on a Lien or other monetary charge upon a well, Unit, or Lease or a liability to otherwise cure a Title Defect related to a well, Unit, or Lease that the Parties agree is liqui...

Related to Title Defect Adjustments

  • Title Defect (a) In the event Seller receives notice of any Survey Objection or Title Objection (collectively and individually a “Title Defect”) within the time periods required under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 above, Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to attempt to remove, or cause to be removed at its expense, any such Title Defect, and shall provide Purchaser with notice within five (5) days of its receipt of any such objection, of its intention to attempt to cure such any such Title Defect. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any Title Defect, the Scheduled Closing Date shall be extended for a period of twenty (20) days for the purpose of such removal. In the event that (i) Seller elects not to attempt to cure any such Title Defect, or (ii) Seller is unable to cure any such Title Defect within such twenty (20) days from the Scheduled Closing Date, Seller shall so notify Purchaser and Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.3(a) and receive a refund of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit, together with all interest which has accrued thereon, or to waive such Title Defect and proceed to the Closing. Purchaser shall make such election by written notice to Seller within three (3) days after receipt of Seller’s notice. If Seller has elected to cure a Title Defect and thereafter fails to timely cure such Title Defect, and Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, then (i) Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses payable to third parties in connection with this transaction incurred after the date on which Seller informed Purchaser of its election to cure the Title Defect, not to exceed the Reimbursement Cap, and (ii) Purchaser shall promptly return Purchaser’s Information to Seller, after which neither party shall have any further obligation to the other under this Agreement except for the Termination Surviving Obligations. If Purchaser elects to proceed to the Closing, any Title Defects waived by Purchaser shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Exceptions, and there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. If, within the three-day period, Purchaser fails to notify Seller of Purchaser’s election to terminate, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the Title Defect and to have elected to proceed to the Closing. (b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Article VI to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated to cure exceptions to title to the Property, in the manner described above, relating to liens and security interests securing any financings to Seller, any judgment liens, which are in existence on the Effective Date, or which come into existence after the Effective Date, and any mechanic’s liens resulting from work at the Property commissioned by Seller; provided, however, that any such mechanic’s lien may be cured by bonding in accordance with Pennsylvania law. In addition, Seller shall be obligated to pay off any outstanding real estate taxes that were due and payable prior to the Closing (but subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 10.4 below).

  • Title Defects 9.1 Purchaser shall have until April 21, 1999 in which to examine the Commitment and the Surveys. If Purchaser finds title to be defective, Purchaser shall, no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 21, 1999, notify Seller in writing, specifying the title defect(s). If Purchaser fails to give Seller written notice of any title defect(s) before 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 21, 1999, the defects shown in the Commitment or the Surveys shall be deemed to be waived as title objections to closing this transaction. 9.2 If Purchaser has given Seller timely written notice of defect(s) and the defect(s) render the title other than as represented in this Agreement or if any new defects appear from the date of the Commitment through the Closing Date, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause only those defects recorded after October 7, 1997 to be cured by the Closing Date. Seller agrees to remove, by payment, bonding or otherwise, any such lien (other than environmental liens) against the Property capable of removal by the payment of money or bonding. Seller shall not be obligated to (but may, in its sole and absolute discretion) cure any other defect or to buyout or settle any other claim or lien against the Property. At Seller's option, the Closing Date may be extended for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days for purposes of eliminating such title defects. If such additional time is reasonably required by Seller to cure such title defects, Seller's failure to extend the Closing Date shall be commercially unreasonable. 9.3 If Seller does not eliminate such defects as of the Closing Date, as the same may be extended under the preceding sentence, or if any new "title defects" appear between the date of the Commitment through the Closing Date which Seller does not eliminate as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the option to: 9.3.1 Close and accept the title "as is," without reduction in the Purchase Price and without claim against Seller for such title defects (except for any lien that Seller is required to cure pursuant to Section 9.2 that can be removed by the payment of money or bonding, for which credit shall be given Purchaser at the Closing unless Seller pays the same at the Closing) (and in such event, the Closing shall take place on the Closing Date); or 9.3.2 Cancel this Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent, subject to the provisions of Section 11.3, shall return the Deposit, together with all interest earned thereon, to Purchaser, and both parties shall be released from all further obligations under this Agreement, except for those which expressly survive such termination, unless such title defects were caused by Seller's willful act or willful omission, in which event Seller shall remain liable to Purchaser for damages caused by such title defects.

  • Environmental Defects If Buyer determines that with respect to the Asset there exists an Environmental Condition (other than with respect to asbestos, asbestos containing materials, or NORM, and excluding any matter set forth on Schedule 6.10) (in each case, an “Environmental Defect”), then on or prior to the Defect Claim Date, Buyer may give Seller a written notice of such Environmental Defect that sets forth the information required by this Section 3.17 (an “Environmental Defect Notice”). For all purposes of this Agreement and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any Environmental Defect that Buyer fails to timely and properly assert as an Environmental Defect by an Environmental Defect Notice received by Seller on or before the Defect Claim Date. To be effective, an Environmental Defect Notice must set forth (a) a clear description of the matter constituting the alleged Environmental Defect, (b) a description of each Asset (or portion thereof) affected by the alleged Environmental Defect, (c) the estimated proportionate share attributable to the Assets of the estimated Lowest Cost Response to eliminate the alleged Environmental Defect (the “Environmental Defect Amount”), and (d) supporting documents and reasonably necessary for Seller to verify the existence of the alleged Environmental Defect and the Environmental Defect Amount. Buyer shall furnish Seller, on or before the end of each calendar week prior to the Defect Claim Date, Environmental Defect Notices with respect to any Environmental Defects that any of Buyer’s or any of its Affiliate’s employees, representatives, attorneys, or other environmental personnel or contractors discover or become aware of during the preceding calendar week, which notice may be preliminary in nature and supplemented prior to the Defect Claim Date; provided that notwithstanding this sentence, any Environmental Defect Notice shall be deemed timely if received by Seller prior to the Defect Claim Date.

  • Closing Adjustments Adjustments to the Purchase Price shall be made between Seller and Purchaser and shall be prorated on a per diem basis as of the Closing Date. The Closing Date shall be a day of income and expense for Purchaser. The following items shall be prorated and adjusted between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing Date, except as otherwise specified: 9.1 Prepaid rents and other prepaid charges collected by Seller from Tenant for the month of Closing shall be prorated by credit to Purchaser. Rents and other charges which relate to periods prior to Closing which have not been collected as of Closing (collectively "Delinquent Rents") shall not be prorated. Seller shall have the right to collect Delinquent Rents from Tenant, which may include legal proceedings against Tenant as Seller deems appropriate, provided no such action shall demand possession or termination of the Lease. Any rents collected after closing shall be applied against the receivable as indicated by Tenant, provided if not specifically identifiable, rents collected after Closing from Tenant shall be applied: (i) first, rents due for the month in which such payment is received, (iii) second, to rents attributable to any period after Closing which are past due on the date of receipt, and (iv) third, to Delinquent Rents. After Closing, Seller shall promptly remit to Purchaser any rents received relating to periods after Closing and Purchaser shall promptly remit to Seller any Delinquent Rents received. The provision of this Section 9.1 shall survive Closing. 9.2 Real estate taxes, water, electricity, sewer, gas, telephone and other utilities and charges which are paid directly by Tenant under the Lease shall not be prorated. 9.3 To the extent that errors are discovered in, or additional information becomes available with respect to, the prorations and allocations made at Closing, Seller and Purchaser agree to make such post-Closing adjustments as may be necessary to correct any inaccuracy; however, all prorations (except for prorations and allocations of (i) ad valorem taxes, (ii) tenant reimbursables of taxes and operating expenses, as applicable and (iii) prorations or allocations that are then currently in dispute) shall be final no later than six (6) months after Closing.

  • Post-Closing Adjustments As soon as practicable after the Closing, but in no event later than one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a final settlement statement (the “Final Settlement Statement”) setting forth each adjustment or payment that was not finally determined as of the Closing and showing the calculation of such adjustments and the resulting Final Purchase Price. Seller shall make its workpapers and other information available to Purchaser to review in order to confirm the adjustments shown on Seller’s draft. As soon as practicable after receipt of the Final Settlement Statement, but in no event later than sixty (60) days thereafter, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a written report containing any changes that Purchaser proposes to make to the Final Settlement Statement. Any failure by Purchaser to deliver to Seller the written report detailing Purchaser’s proposed changes to the Final Settlement Statement within sixty (60) days following Purchaser’s receipt of the Final Settlement Statement shall be deemed an acceptance by Purchaser of the Final Settlement Statement as submitted by Seller. The parties shall agree with respect to the changes proposed by Purchaser, if any, no later than sixty (60) days after Seller receives from Purchaser the written report described above containing Purchaser’s proposed changes. If the Purchaser and the Seller cannot then agree upon the Final Settlement Statement, the determination of the amount of the Final Settlement Statement shall be submitted to a mutually agreed firm of independent public accountants (the “Accounting Firm”). The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and shall be enforceable against any party hereto in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any costs and expenses incurred by the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 12.1 shall be borne by the Seller and the Purchaser equally. The date upon which such agreement is reached or upon which the Final Purchase Price is established, shall be herein called the “Final Settlement Date.” In the event (a) the Final Purchase Price is more than the Estimated Final Purchase Price, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of such difference, or (b) the Final Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Final Purchase Price, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the amount of such difference, in either event by wire transfer in immediately available funds. Payment by Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, shall be within five (5) days of the Final Settlement Date.
