     3.2 Monetary Liens. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary expressed or implied herein, on or before the Close of Escrow, all trust deeds, mortgages, mechanic’s liens, financing statements, and other monetary liens (other than liens for nondelinquent real property taxes) (collectively, “Monetary Liens”), shall be removed as encumbrances on title to the Property, and as exceptions to the Owner’s Title Policy for the Property, it being understood that any and all such Monetary Liens have been disapproved by Buyer and are not Permitted Exceptions.

charges are required by the Escrow Officer; (b) a certificate (“Buyer’s Certificate”), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Seller, stating that (1) each representation and warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement (including any exhibit, schedule, or other agreement or document delivered pursuant hereto) is true and correct in all respects on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if such representation and warranty had been made on and as of the Closing Date, and (2) Buyer has performed in all material respects all agreements required by this to be performed by it prior to or at the Closing; (c) Buyer’s notice to Seller and Escrow Holder that the Property (including, without limitation, the Title Report or any other aspect of title) is satisfactory to Buyer in all aspects; (d) the Recordable Documents; and (e) such other documents and affidavits as may be reasonably required by the Escrow Holder or the Title Company in connection with the issuance of the Owner’s Title Policy.

     10.6 Closing Costs. The costs of consummating the purchase and sale contemplated herein (collectively, the “Closing Costs”) shall be paid through Escrow as follows: (a) Seller and Buyer shall each pay one-half (¹/2) of Escrow Holder’s fees and expenses; (b) Seller shall pay the real-estate documentary transfer taxes arising in connection with the recordation of the Deed, and the costs of the Owner’s Title Policy (collectively, the “Title Policy Costs”); (c) Buyer shall pay all recording fees; and (d) Buyer shall pay for any title insurance costs for any endorsements or other coverages that Buyer may request of the Title Company and that are beyond those customarily included in a standard coverage owner’s policy of title insurance. Except as specifically set forth in this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement, each Party shall pay its own fees and expenses incurred by it or on its behalf in connection with this Agreement.

     10.7 Prorations. Real-estate taxes and assessments shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller at and as of the Close of Escrow based upon the most recent available information in the tax assessor’s office. Rents, fees and other items of income or expense from the Property shall also be prorated between Buyer and Seller at and as of the Close of Escrow. On or before five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Escrow Holder shall advise Buyer and Seller of Escrow Holder’s estimate of the net credit to Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, resulting from such prorations. If such prorations result in a net credit to Seller, Buyer shall deposit in Escrow in immediately available funds, along with the Balance of the Purchase Price, the amount of such credit estimated by Escrow Holder. If the tax proration is based on tax bills for the calendar year immediately preceding the year of the Close of Escrow and the actual amount of taxes for the year of the Close of Escrow differs from the amount upon which the prorations were based, then Buyer and Seller, promptly upon receipt by either of them of the notice or ▇▇▇▇ for the taxes actually pertaining to the year of the Close of Escrow, shall between themselves (and outside Escrow) adjust the prorations made at the Close of Escrow to accurately reflect the taxes actually payable for the year of the Close of Escrow, with the taxes to be computed with the maximum discount for prompt payment, if any. Seller shall be solely responsible for any and all taxes payable for any period preceding the Close of Escrow, including but not limited to any “roll back” or other taxes assessed or payable after the Close of Escrow with respect to any ownership or actions on the Property for any period prior to Close of Escrow; provided, however, that Buyer (not Seller) shall be entirely responsible for any increase in post-Close of Escrow real-property taxes that may occur by reason of the sale of the Property to Buyer by reason of any reappraisal of the Property for tax purposes or otherwise.

     10.8 Close of Escrow. As soon as:

               (a) Seller has deposited into Escrow all of the documents specified in Section 10.5.1 hereof;

               (b) Buyer has deposited into Escrow (i) the Balance of the Purchase Price, (ii) any additional funds required to pay the estimated net credit to Seller for the required prorations, (iii) any additional funds required to pay Buyer’s share of the Closing Costs, and (iv) the documents specified in Section 10.5.2 hereof; and

               (c) As soon as Escrow Holder is prepared to deliver to Buyer, upon recordation of the Deed, the Owner’s Title Policy insuring title to the Property subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, Escrow Holder shall do the following:

	(i)		Cause the Title Company to record the Deed in the Bureau of Conveyances of the State of Hawaii;
	(ii)		deliver to Buyer Seller’s Certificate, the FIRPTA Certificate, the Tax Clearance Certificate, copies of the HARPTA Certificate and the Conveyance Tax Certificate, the Owner’s Title Policy and any other documents which Seller is to deliver and Buyer is to receive hereunder through Escrow at the Close of Escrow;
	(iii)		deliver to Seller Buyer’s Certificate and any other documents which Buyer is to deliver and Seller is to receive hereunder through Escrow at the Close of Escrow;
	(iv)		deliver, record or file any other documents deposited into Escrow as required by such documents or hereunder;
	(v)		disburse to Seller, by wire transfer to an account designated by Seller in writing, the Purchase Price less (A) the amount of any net credit to Buyer resulting from the prorations required hereunder and (B) Seller’s share of the Closing Costs;
	(vi)		disburse to the Title Company the Title Policy Costs;
	(vii)		disburse Escrow Holder’s fees to Escrow Holder;
	(viii)		disburse to Buyer any funds remaining in Escrow after the foregoing payments; and
	(ix)		obtain for each Party conformed copies of all documents recorded in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder.

Escrow Holder’s performance of the foregoing actions shall be deemed to occur simultaneously. The taking of such actions and the moment thereof are hereinabove and hereinafter called the “Close of Escrow”. The Close of Escrow shall occur immediately following the closing of the transactions described in that certain Acquisition Agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) dated as of the date hereof, by and among Buyer and the shareholders of Hawaiian Sweet, Inc., a California corporation, and CW Hawaii Pride LLC, a Hawaii limited liability company.
