(c) SURVEY: Buyer may also obtain, and shall deliver to Seller and the Title Company upon receipt, a current survey of the Property (“Survey”) prepared by a surveyor (“Surveyor”) licensed to do business in Massachusetts, at Buyer’s cost. The Survey shall be delivered to Seller, Buyer and the Title Company and the Survey shall be certified to Seller, Buyer and the Title Company and shall be sufficient to cause the Title Company to delete, at Buyer’s cost and expense, the printed exception for “discrepancies, conflicts or shortages in area or boundary lines, or encroachments, or any overlapping of improvements” in the Owner’s Title Policy to be delivered to Buyer at the Closing.

5. BUYER’S OBLIGATIONS:

(a) DUE DILIGENCE OBLIGATIONS: Buyer agrees to perform all Due Diligence concerning the Property within the Due Diligence Period. In this regard, Buyer or Buyer’s designated agents may enter the Property by contacting Seller (phone: 978-657-0075), whereupon Buyer will be provided access to the Property to perform such Due Diligence. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, within five (5) days after the Effective Date, to the extent reasonably requested by Buyer and to the extent the same are in Seller’s possession, Seller shall deliver to Buyer all service contracts, books, records, title documents, building reports, engineering studies, environmental reports, surveys, and other documentation pertaining to the Property (“Existing Data”). Seller makes no representations or warranties as to the truth, accuracy, completeness, methodology of preparation or otherwise concerning the Existing Data or any other materials, data or other information supplied to Buyer in connection with Buyer’s inspection of the Property (e.g., that such materials are complete, accurate or the final version thereof, or that such materials are all of such materials as are in Seller’s possession). It is the parties’ express understanding and agreement that such materials are provided only for Buyer’s convenience in making its own examination and determination prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period as to whether Buyer wishes to purchase the Property. In all events, Buyer hereby covenants and agrees not to disclose to third parties the Existing Data or the results of any reports of investigations or tests concerning the Property performed by or at the request of Buyer. Each of the foregoing Buyer covenants shall survive the termination of this Contract. In the event the transaction described in this Contract shall not close, Buyer shall (i) restore the Property to its prior condition, if changed as a result of Buyer’s or Buyer’s agent’s, contractor’s and consultant’s Due Diligence; and (ii) if Seller so requests, return the Existing Data and furnish Seller with copies of all reports, studies, analyses and development plans or requirements prepared by or for Buyer as a part of Buyer’s Due Diligence (excluding internal business pro formas and other proprietary analysis performed by Buyer or Buyer’s employees, officers or directors). Provided Buyer has duly terminated the Contract and is not otherwise in default, promptly after Buyer has completed the matters set forth in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, Buyer shall receive a full refund of any and all Earnest Money to which Buyer is entitled as a result of such termination. All Due Diligence shall be at Buyer’s sole cost and expense. Buyer agrees that in exercising its rights hereunder, Buyer will use and will cause Buyer’s agents to use their best efforts not to interfere with the activity of Seller or any persons occupying or providing service at the Property. Buyer shall permit Seller to have an opportunity to have a representative present during any inspection of the Property. Buyer agrees to cooperate with any reasonable request by Seller in connection with the timing of any such inspection. Buyer shall not conduct or allow any physically intrusive testing of, on or under the Property

without first obtaining Seller’s written consent. As a condition precedent to Buyer’s right of access to the Property for the purposes hereinabove set forth, Buyer shall keep the Property free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Buyer or Buyer’s agents, contractors and consultants with respect to any inspection, testing or Due Diligence of the Property which obligation shall survive termination of this Contract. If any such lien at any time shall be filed, Buyer shall cause the same to be discharged of record within ten (10) calendar days thereafter by satisfying the same or, if Buyer, in Buyer’s discretion and in good faith determines that such lien should be contested, by recording a bond or obtaining a title indemnity acceptable to Seller. Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any mechanics’, materialmens’, laborers’ or other lien which results from the activities of Buyer or any of Buyer’s agents on the Property. The foregoing indemnity and restoration provisions shall survive the termination of this Contract in the event the transaction contemplated by this Contract does not close. Whether or not the transaction described in this Contract shall close, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against all claims, actions, damages, liability, loss, costs, attorney’s fees and expenses related to or arising from the Due Diligence performed by Buyer, or at Buyer’s direction.

6. OTHER AGREEMENTS:

(a) TITLE INSURANCE COSTS; TITLE APPROVAL; SURVEY APPROVAL: Buyer shall be responsible for all title insurance costs, including the premium for the Owner’s Title Insurance Policy and any endorsements thereto. If Buyer has an objection to items disclosed in the Commitment or the Survey provided for herein, Buyer shall, within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of both the Commitment and the Survey, in all events, however, no later than the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, to make written objections to Seller concerning matters shown on the Commitment or Survey. If Buyer makes objections, Seller agrees to use reasonable efforts to cure such objections within ten (10) calendar days from the receipt thereof (“Cure Period”) with the understanding and agreement that Seller is not obligated either to incur costs or to institute litigation in pursuing any such efforts, but shall in all events be obligated to obtain the release of any liens against the Property voluntarily granted by Seller after the Effective Date. If the written objections are not cured or satisfied within the Cure Period, Buyer shall, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, elect in a writing delivered to Seller within three (3) calendar days after the expiration of the Cure Period either (i) to terminate this Contract and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Buyer, or (ii) to waive the unsatisfied objections and close the transaction with no reduction in the Sales Price. If Buyer does not notify Seller within three (3) calendar days after the Cure Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to waive the unsatisfied objections and close the transaction with no reduction in the Sales Price. If Buyer fails to timely notify Seller in writing of any such objections during the Due Diligence Period, it shall be deemed that Buyer has approved and found the Commitment, the Survey and all matters reflected on or in any of them to be acceptable and permitted hereunder and Buyer agrees to take title to the Property subject to such matters. Any items to which Buyer does not object in writing within the Due Diligence Period or to which Buyer does object but subsequently waives (or is deemed to have waived) such objection shall be deemed to be a permitted exception(s) (“Permitted Exceptions”).

Buyer shall cooperate with Seller in connection with such complaint or appeal and collection of a refund of real property taxes paid. Seller owns and holds all right, title and interest in and to any appeals or refunds of real estate taxes payable for periods prior to the Closing, and all amounts payable in connection therewith shall be paid directly to Seller by the applicable authorities. If such refund or any part thereof is received by Buyer, Buyer shall promptly pay such amount to Seller. If and to the extent any such complaint or appeal covers the period after the Closing, Buyer shall have the right to participate in such complaint or appeal.

In the event of a condemnation, Buyer shall have the option either (i) to apply the proceeds of any condemnation award actually received by Seller prior to the Closing to reduce the Sales Price provided herein (or, in the event such proceeds have not been so received, to accept at the Closing an assignment of Seller’s rights therein and consummate the sale without reduction in the Sales Price), or (ii) to declare this Contract terminated by delivering written notice of termination to Seller within ten (10) calendar days after Buyer receives written notice of the

condemnation (and if Buyer is not then in default hereof, the Earnest Money shall be returned to Buyer and, except as may otherwise be expressly set forth in this Contract, neither party hereto shall have any other or further rights, duties or liabilities under this Contract). If Buyer elects to terminate this Contract pursuant to the foregoing sentence, all awards and compensation arising out of said condemnation shall be the property of Seller.
