The date on which the transactions herein contemplated shall be consummated is herein referred to as the “Closing Date” and the transactions occurring at that time are herein referred to as “Closing.” No party shall be obligated to agree to any date or time for Closing except the date and time herein set forth except at its sole and absolute discretion.
5.2Title Commitment and Title Policy; Survey.
a.Title Commitment. Buyer shall, within ten (10) days after the Effective Date, obtain a current commitment for an ALTA Owner’s Title Insurance Policy (the “Title Commitment”) from the Title Company relating to the Property in an amount equal to the Purchase
Price for the Property. Buyer shall have the right to have a survey (the “Updated Survey”) of the Property prepared at the sole cost and expense of Buyer and Buyer shall order such Updated Survey within five (5) days after the Effective Date. Buyer shall have until five (5) business days after receipt of the Title Commitment and Updated Survey, if applicable (the “Title Review Period”) to give Seller a detailed notice objecting to any exception or condition contained in the Title Commitment or the Updated Survey. If Buyer does not give notice of any objections to Seller within the Title Review Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the title as shown in the Title Commitment, the title exceptions, and all matters shown on the existing survey or the Updated Survey, if any, except for Required Cure Items (defined below) and any such exceptions or matters shall become “Permitted Exceptions”. If Buyer provides timely objections, Seller shall have five (5) business days after receipt of Buyer’s notice (the “Title Cure Period”) in which to elect, by written notice to Buyer (“Seller’s Title Notice”), either (A) to cure Buyer’s objections, or (B) not to cure Buyer’s objections; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever to cure or attempt to cure any of Buyer’s objections. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Seller shall be obligated, at Closing, to cause Title Company to remove deeds of trust, mortgages, security deeds or other monetary liens encumbering the Property, including, without limitation, the currently existing mortgage in favor of Lender (the “Required Cure Items”). In the event that Seller fails to provide such written notice of its election to proceed under either clause (A) or (B) above, Seller shall be deemed to have elected clause (B) above. If Buyer provides timely objections and all of Buyer’s objections are not cured (or agreed to be cured by Seller prior to Closing) within the Title Cure Period for any reason, then, within five (5) days after receipt or deemed receipt of Seller’s Title Notice, Buyer shall, as its sole and exclusive remedy, waiving all other remedies, either: (x) terminate this Agreement by giving a termination notice to Seller, at which time Title Company shall return the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money to Buyer (less the Good Faith Payment which shall be delivered to Seller) and the parties shall have no further rights, liabilities, or obligations under this Agreement (other than those that expressly survive termination); or (y) waive the uncured objections by proceeding to Closing and thereby be deemed to have approved the Buyer’s title as shown in the Title Commitment, the title exception documents, the existing survey or the Updated Survey, if any, and any such uncured objections shall become “Permitted Exceptions”. If Seller does not timely receive notice of Buyer’s election to terminate under this Section, Buyer will be deemed to have waived the uncured objections and such uncured objections, except for Required Cure Items, shall become “Permitted Exceptions”.
b.Title Policies. At the Closing and as a condition precedent to the obligations of Buyer hereunder, the Title Company shall deliver to Buyer, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, title insurance policy or proforma policy issued by the Title Company in the collective amount of the Purchase Price and otherwise in accordance with the Title Company’s commitment therefor as set forth above, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, showing fee simple title to the Real Property as vested in Buyer (the “Title Policy”). Buyer may request the issuance at the Closing of such endorsements to such title insurance policy as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that issuance of such endorsements shall not be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligations hereunder and Seller shall not incur any costs or expenses in connection with the issuance of such endorsements.
c.Closing Costs. All costs of preparation, issuance and delivery of the title commitment and the Title Policy and any endorsements (to the extent available) required to be delivered hereunder shall be paid by Buyer. The cost of any documentary transfer taxes (however characterized) (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be split evenly between Seller and Buyer. The cost of recording and registering the Deed shall be split evenly between Buyer and Seller, and Seller shall pay the cost of recording any instruments required to remove title exceptions which are not Permitted Exceptions and which Seller has agreed to remove pursuant to Section 5.2. Buyer shall be responsible for payment of any survey costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with its due diligence investigations of the Property. Seller and Buyer shall pay equal shares of the fee charged by the Title Company for conducting the escrow closing. The parties shall split the costs of Escrow Agent. Each of Seller and Buyer shall pay the legal fees of their respective counsel.
5.3Intentionally omitted.

Adjustments and Prorations - Closing Statement
6.1Adjustments and Prorations. Subject to the other provisions of this Article, the following matters and items shall be prorated and apportioned between the parties hereto, or, where applicable, credited in total to a particular party, as of the Cut Off Time, with Seller being responsible for all costs and expenses prior to the Cut Off Time and Buyer being responsible for all costs and expenses for the Property from and after the Cut Off Time, with net credits, whether in favor of Buyer or Seller, to be settled in cash at the Closing:
a.Rent. Rents that have been collected for the month of the Closing will be prorated at the Closing, effective as of the date of the Closing. At Closing, Seller shall furnish to Buyer a schedule of all rents which are then due and payable but which have not been collected. With regard to rents that are uncollected as of the Closing Date, (i) no proration will be made at the Closing, (ii) Buyer will make a reasonable effort after the Closing to collect the rents in the
usual course of Buyer’s operation of the Property, but shall not be obligated to incur any extraordinary cost or expense in connection therewith, and (iii) Buyer will apply all rents collected (A) first to the then-current month’s rental obligation due from such Tenant, (B) then second towards delinquent rents owed to Buyer with respect to the period from and after the Closing Date, and (C) then third towards any delinquent amounts owed to Seller relating to the period prior to the Closing Date. It is further agreed, however, that Buyer will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect uncollected rents and Seller shall be entitled to ▇▇▇ the Tenant to collect same (provided that Seller shall not seek termination of such Tenant’s Lease). Rents collected by Buyer after the Closing Date, to which Seller is entitled, shall be promptly paid to Seller.
b.Tenant Security Deposits. Seller shall deliver or cause its property manager to deliver to Buyer (or give Buyer a credit for), without additional consideration, all security deposits then held by or on behalf of Seller under the Leases together with accrued interest as required by law or pursuant to the terms of the Leases.
c.Real Estate Taxes. General real estate taxes, special assessments and personal property taxes relating to the Property (including the personal property) (a) for each day in 2018 and all tax years prior to the Date of Closing shall be fully paid or credited to the Buyer at Closing (in accordance with the terms hereof), and (b) accrued and payable for each day in 2018 shall be prorated with respect to the Property with Seller responsible for payment of such taxes through the Cut-Off Time and Buyer shall pay the taxes related to the period for which a credit is provided at Closing. If tax bills for the calendar year 2018 are not available as to the taxes that are to be prorated, then such taxes to be prorated between Seller and Buyer shall be prorated based on 100% of the most recent tax bills and, such proration shall be final and shall not be reprorated upon the availability of actual bills for the applicable period.
d.Operating Expenses. (i) Seller shall use reasonable efforts to obtain readings of the water and electric meters on the Property to a date no sooner than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date. At or prior to Closing, Seller shall pay all charges based upon such meter readings and such charges accruing through the Closing Date. However, if after reasonable efforts Seller is unable to obtain readings of any meters prior to Closing, Closing shall be completed without such readings and upon the obtaining thereof after Closing, Seller shall pay the charges incurred prior to Closing as reasonably determined by Seller and Buyer based upon the post-Closing readings. The provisions of this subparagraph shall survive Closing and delivery of the Deed. All other utility and operating expenses (other than with respect to property management fees and Property Contracts to be terminated prior to Closing), if any, shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing based on estimates of the amounts that will be due and payable on the next payment date, unless final readings or invoices are available as of Closing. Any and all deposits, if any, held by utility companies or with other providers of services to the Property shall remain the property of Seller and be returned to Seller by such companies and providers except to the extent that Buyer elects to credit to Seller the amount of any such deposits.
(ii)In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, during the Due Diligence Period Seller shall contact the City of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Water Department (the “City”) to request that they conduct an audit of metering and water usage at the Property. It is Seller’s intent
that prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Seller can report to Buyer the findings of the City investigation. If the City finds that the in-place metering system is accurately measuring water usage, Seller will obtain written confirmation of such finding. If the City investigation determines the metering system is inaccurately measuring usage, Seller shall work diligently with the City to perform remedial efforts to correct deficiencies. If the City identifies unpaid balances as a result of the audit, Seller will work diligently with the City to pay all discrepancies such that there is no balance due to the City for the period prior to Closing. Delays in the City investigation will not impact the Closing Date set forth in this Agreement. In the event that Seller has not reached full and final resolution with the City prior to Closing, Seller shall (x) indemnify the Buyer and the Title Company against any liens in favor of the City with respect to the metering and water usage so that Buyer’s title insurance policy can be issued without exception for such matters and (y) escrow with the Title Company at Closing the sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) to be held by the Title Company until the full and final resolution with the City, but in no event more than twelve (12) months after the Closing Date. Seller’s liability for pre-Closing water usage at the Property shall survive Closing and delivery of the Deed and shall not be subject to the Cap on Seller’s liability under paragraph 4.4 above.
e.Buyer shall pay all unpaid installments becoming due on or after the Closing Date in respect of assessments against the Property or any part thereof for improvements or other work (including any fines, interest or penalties thereon due to the non-payment thereof) relating to any period after the Closing Date, and shall indemnify, defend and save Seller harmless from any claims therefor or any liability, loss, cost or expenses arising therefrom. Seller shall pay all unpaid installments becoming due on or before the Closing Date in respect of assessments against the Property or any part thereof for improvements or other work (including any fines, interest or penalties thereon due to the non-payment thereof) relating to any period through the Closing Date, and shall indemnify, defend and save Buyer harmless from any claims therefor or any liability, loss, cost or expenses arising therefrom. The provisions of this paragraph (e) shall survive Closing and delivery of the Deed.
f.If, after Closing, there is an error on the Closing Statement or, if after the actual figures are available as to any items that were estimated on the Closing Statement, it is determined that any actual proration or apportionment varies from the amount thereof reflected on the Closing Statement, the proration or apportionment shall be adjusted based on the actual figures as soon as feasible but not later than three (3) months after the Closing Date. Either party owing the other party a sum of money based on such subsequent proration(s) shall promptly pay said sum to the other party within thirty (30) days of such reconciliation. The provisions of this clause (vii) of this subparagraph (a) shall survive Closing and delivery of the Deed for a period of six (6) months.
6.2Closing Statement. At Closing, Buyer and Seller will jointly prepare a “Closing Statement,” which shall show the net amount due to Seller or to Buyer as a result of the adjustments and prorations herein required. Except as herein set forth, the Closing Statement as agreed to between Buyer and Seller shall be final, binding and conclusive, absent fraud.

ESCROW AGREEMENT
THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), made this _____ day of _____________, 201_ by and among ___________________________________, a ______________________ (“Buyer”), and ____________________________, a Delaware statutory trust (“Seller”), and Chicago Title Insurance Company (“Escrow Agent”).
WITNESSETH,
WHEREAS, Buyer and Seller have entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement dated ___________, 201_ for the sale and purchase of the property commonly known as ____________________ (the “Property”) (the “Contract”); and
WHEREAS, Escrow Agent has agreed to act as the Escrow Agent referred to in the Contract, for the purpose of holding the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money required thereunder in the principal amount of up to __________________________________________ (the “▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Escrow”), said ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Escrow to be deposited into an interest bearing account in a depository institution which is federally insured in accordance with Section 3.3(a) of the Contract.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms of the Contract, Buyer and Seller shall and do at all times hereafter well and sufficiently save, defend, keep harmless and indemnify ESCROW AGENT, from all loss, damage, cost, charge, liability or expense, including, but not limited to, court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees which may result from the obligation and duty as Escrow Agent, including, but not limited to, situations in which disputes arise concerning amounts of money to be paid over, funds available for such payments, or the proper persons to whom payments should be made, and including, but not limited to, a delay in the electronic wire transfer of funds.
FURTHER, we understand that ESCROW AGENT assumes no responsibility for, nor will Seller and Buyer hold Escrow Agent liable for, any loss occurring which arises from the fact that the amount of the above account may cause the aggregate amount of any individual depositor’s accounts to exceed $250,000.00 and that the excess amount is not insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or that FDIC insurance is not available on certain types of bank instruments.
FURTHER, the parties hereto covenant and agree to the following:
(a) UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED TO BY BUYER AND SELLER IN THIS AGREEMENT, Escrow Agent shall reLease escrowed funds PER THE TERMS OF CONTRACT OR upon the mutual consent of BUYER and Seller AS evidenced BY THEIR SIGNED WRITTEN DIRECTIVE.
(B) Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any writing or instrument or signatures which it, in good faith, believes to be genuine, and may assume the validity and accuracy of any statement or assertion contained in such writing or instrument, and may assume that any person purporting to give any writing, notice, advice or instruction in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized so to do.
(C) Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder shall be limited to the safe-keeping of the Escrow Account deposited with the Escrow Agent and the disposition of the same in accordance with the terms hereof. Escrow Agent shall not mediate or become involved in any controversy or dispute as to any facts between Buyer and Seller.
If Escrow Agent shall be unable to determine at any time whether, when, or to whom all or any part of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be paid, or if a dispute shall develop between Seller and Buyer concerning whether, when, or to whom all or any part of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be paid, then and in any such event, the Escrow Agent shall pay the amount of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money which is subject to such uncertainty or dispute (the “Amount in Controversy”) in accordance with the joint written instructions of Seller and Buyer. In the event that such written instructions shall not have been received by the Escrow Agent within fifteen (15) days after the Escrow Agent has served a written request for instruction upon Seller and Buyer, then the Escrow Agent shall have the right by ▇▇▇▇ of interpleader to pay the Amount in Controversy, less the reasonable expenses of Escrow Agent, as hereinafter set forth, into a court of competent jurisdiction and interplead Seller and Buyer in respect thereof, and thereafter the Escrow Agent shall be discharged of any obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Amount in Controversy.
In the event that the parties cannot reach an agreement among themselves as to the release of the escrowed funds and the Escrow Agent does not exercise its right to file a ▇▇▇▇ of interpleader and either party seeks to resolve the controversy by seeking redress in a court of law, all parties agree, that in said event, the Escrow Agent shall pay over those funds remaining in escrow as directed by the court. The parties agree not to make the Escrow Agent a party to any such suit.
To the extent Escrow Agent receives reasonable and customary fees or expenses in connection with performing its duties hereunder in anticipation of and as a part of Closing under the Contract, such fees and expenses shall be Buyer’s responsibility; however, if costs or expenses are incurred by the Escrow Agent because of the litigation or a dispute between Seller and Buyer arising out of the holding of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money in escrow, Seller and Buyer shall each pay the Escrow Agent one-half of such reasonable costs or expenses.
(D) Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only said duties as are expressly set forth herein and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Escrow Agent.
(E) Except for acts of willful misconduct or gross negligence of Escrow Agent, Buyer and Seller, jointly and severally, hereby agree to indemnify Escrow Agent and hold it harmless from any and all claims, liabilities, losses, actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity, or any other expense, fees or charges of any character or nature, which it may incur or with which it may be threatened by reason of its acting as Escrow Agent under this Agreement, and in connection therewith, to indemnify the Escrow Agent against any and all expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees and the cost of defending any action, suit or proceeding or resisting any claim.
(F) Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any mistakes of fact, or error or judgment, or for any acts or omission of any kind unless caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Escrow Agent.
(G) Interest accrued on the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money deposit shall be payable under the terms of the Contract.
