4. ESCROW: Escrow Agent will hold all Earnest Money in a non-interest bearing account any and all monies

received by it directly or through its agents, employees or its Attorneys until Closing or the Purchase Agreement

is canceled in accordance with its terms. Seller and Purchaser hereby agree that, in the event either Seller or

Purchaser directs Escrow Agent to disburse funds that are then being held in escrow, the party making such

request or receiving such funds shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Escrow Agent or any other Escrow

Agent engaged in connection with the Closing of this transaction from and against any loss, liability or expense

(including reasonable attorney's fees) arising from said disbursement unless incurred by reason of gross

negligence or fraud. Escrow Agent reserves the right to interplead any dispute arising in connection with this

5. TITLE INSURANCE: Seller has delivered to Purchaser a Preliminary Title Insurance Commitment

("Commitment") issued by Chicago Title Insurance Company the ("Title Company") dated

______________________, 2012 and, identified as commitment number ___________________. If Purchaser

desires an Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (“Owner's Policy”), the Title Company shall issue such Owner’s

Policy at Purchaser’s expense, in the full amount of the Purchase Price, dated as of Closing, insuring

Purchaser’s fee simple title to the Property subject to Permitted Exceptions (as hereinafter defined). Purchaser

has reviewed the Commitment, to the extent deemed necessary, has obtained copies of all Documents of Record

(as hereinafter defined) and by execution of this Agreement hereby waives any and all objections to any defects,

encumbrances, liens, encroachments, easements, or other matters disclosed by the Commitment, with the

exception of any mortgage liens and security interests of any Mortgage Holder ("Financing Liens"), if any, for

which appropriate releases, payoffs, and/or termination statements will be delivered at Closing. All such

matters disclosed by the Commitment other than the Financing Liens are referred to as the "Permitted

Exceptions”. If the Title Company is not able to issue or commit to issue the Owner's Policy at the Closing

because of a defect in, or encumbrance on, title to the Property other than Permitted Exceptions, and Purchaser

objects to such title defect or encumbrance, Seller shall be entitled to delay the Closing for up to 30 days for

purposes of attempting to clear such encumbrance from title or procuring title insurance over such defect or

encumbrance. In the event Seller does not clear such item or procure title insurance over same within the time

provided, this Agreement will thereupon terminate and all Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser, unless

Purchaser waives any such defect and elects to proceed to Closing without adjustment or setoff.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary; (a) Purchaser need not obtain a title insurance

policy from the Title Company; and (b) if Purchaser desires to purchase a title insurance policy from any other

company, Purchaser may do so at Purchaser's discretion and at Purchaser's sole cost and expense; and (c)

Purchaser agrees that in the event Purchaser decides not to obtain a title insurance policy nor pay the cost

thereof to the Title Company, Purchaser shall notify Seller of that fact at least fifteen (15) days prior to the

Closing Date (and in the absence of such notice, it shall be conclusively presumed that Purchaser desires an

Owner’s Policy issued by the Title Company at Purchaser’s expense); and after Seller’s receipt of such notice,

(i) Seller need not furnish an Owner's Policy to Purchaser; (ii) Seller shall not be obligated to cause any title

company chosen by Purchaser to omit an exception to title if the Title Company is willing to insure Purchaser's

title without such exception; (iii) the foregoing procedure shall not delay Closing; and (iv) any costs incurred by

Seller caused by Purchaser’s election shall be paid by Purchaser.

6. SURVEY: Purchaser shall have the right to obtain a survey of the Property at Purchaser’s sole cost, and upon

reasonable advance notice to Seller, Seller shall cooperate in providing access to the Property to Purchaser’s

surveyor as shall be reasonably necessary to complete such survey. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold

harmless Seller, its members, employees, agents, successors and assigns, from and against any and all claims,

suits causes of action, losses, costs and liabilities arising from or related to entry on the Property by Purchaser

or any agent of Purchaser in connection with the preparation of any such survey. In no event shall Purchaser’s

obtaining a survey delay or prevent Closing, and any matter shown in Purchaser’s survey shall be deemed an

additional Permitted Exception(s).

defaulting party has thereby elected to declare a default, ("Default Notice") the Escrow Agent shall notify the

defaulting party in writing as to the same. Defaulting party shall have five (5) business days from the date

Escrow Agent notifies defaulting party of the Default Notice to dispute the notice in writing to the Escrow

Agent and the non-defaulting party. In the event defaulting party fails to dispute such Default Notice in writing,

and accrued interest, if any, to the non-defaulting party, reduced by the Escrow Agent’s actual expenses

described above. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to indemnify, save harmless and agree to defend Escrow

Agent from and against any claims, demand, costs or damages (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred
