All such surveys, studies, tests, investigations and inspections shall be <br />performed at the sole cost and expense of Lessee and Lessee shall indemnify, defend and <br />hold Lessor harmless from and against any and all cost, expense, liability arising from or <br />in connection with any such surveys, studies, tests, investigation and inspections. <br />69.4. Exercise of Purchase Option. To exercise the Purchase Option, Lessee shall serve written <br />notice of exercise upon Lessor or Lessor’s legal representatives at any time after the <br />Purchase Option Commencement Date but prior to the Purchase Option Termination <br />Date (“Notice of Exercise”), which such Notice of Exercise shall be accompanied by a <br />cash or cash equivalent in the amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000,00) <br />(“Deposit”). The Deposit shall be invested by Escrow Holder (as defined below) in a <br />federally insured interest-bearing account with any interest accruing thereon to be paid or <br />credited to Lessee. At the Close of Purchase Option Escrow, the Deposit and any <br />accrued interest thereon shall be applied and credited toward payment of the Purchase <br />Price. The Notice of Exercise shall provide at least 90-120 days for Lessor to locate an <br />exchange property prior to the Closing of the Purchase Option Escrow. <br />69.5. Escrow. If Lessee timely exercises the Purchase Option by the timely delivery of the <br />Notice of Exercise and the Deposit, Lessor and Lessee shall immediately open an escrow <br />(“Option Escrow”) with Chicago Title Company (“Escrow Holder”, the specific escrow <br />officer being chosen by Lessor, or Lessor may choose such other escrow or title company <br />in its reasonable discretion upon written notice to Lessee, which such escrow or title <br />company shall be subject to Lessee’s approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld, <br />conditioned or delayed), whereupon the Deposit shall be delivered to Escrow Holder. <br />This Agreement shall constitute joint escrow instructions to Escrow Holder with respect <br />to the purchase and sale of the Premises. The parties shall execute such additional <br />escrow instructions which are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and <br />which may be required by Escrow Holder in order to close such escrow. <br />69.6. Payment. The Purchase Price shall be paid in cash upon the Close of Purchase Option <br />Escrow (as defined below). <br />69.7. Closing. The close of the Purchase Option Escrow for the purchase and sale of the <br />Premises shall occur on or before the date which is thirty (30) days (“Scheduled Closing <br />Date”) after the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise by Lessee to Lessor (the “Close <br />of Purchase Option Escrow” or “Closing"). For purposes hereof, the Close of Purchase <br />Option Escrow (and Closing) shall be the date on which the Grant Deed conveying the <br />Premises to Lessee is recorded. <br />a) If, following Lessee’s timely and proper exercise of the Purchase Option, the <br />Closing fails to occur as a result of Lessor’s breach or default and if Lessor <br />should remain in default in any material respect in the performance of any of <br />Lessor’s obligations under the Lease with respect to the sale of the Premises after <br />the fifth (5th) Business Day following the delivery by Lessee to Lessor of written <br />notice of such default, Lessee shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy <br />for any such default, to elect any one of the following remedies (so long as title <br />to the Premises has not been further encumbered involuntarily or by or with the <br />consent of Lessor, and Lessor elects not to remove such encumbrance on or prior <br />to Closing): (i) terminate its Purchase Option and receive the return of the <br />Deposit, and, thereafter, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations <br />hereunder except that if applicable, the Lease shall continue thereafter in full <br />12925447.1 <br />12
