Seller has delivered to Buyer all engineering plans, drawings, surveys, site plans, soil reports, environmental studies, title information, leases, services agreements, and all other documents or information in Seller’s possession or under Seller’s control, if any, relating to the Property (“Due Diligence Material”).

3.2 Inspection of Property. Buyer and its agents and representatives have the right to enter onto the Land and Improvements prior to the Closing for purposes of conducting surveys, soil tests, market studies, engineering tests and such other tests, investigations, studies, and inspections as Buyer deems necessary or desirable to evaluate the Property, provided that: (i) all such tests, investigations, studies, and inspections are conducted at Buyer’s sole expense; (ii) Buyer shall coordinate any entries onto the Property with the existing Tenant occupying the warehouse portion of the Property; and (iii) Buyer indemnifies and holds Seller harmless from and against any losses, liabilities, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of damage to the Property or personal injury resulting from Buyer’s or its agents’ or representatives’ negligence in connection with the activities contemplated in this Section 3.2.

Buyer has until April 20, 2012 (the “Inspection Period”) in which to make such investigations and studies with respect to the Property as Buyer deems appropriate. If Buyer deems, in its sole and absolute discretion, to continue with the transaction, Buyer will provide Seller with a notice of acceptance (the “Acceptance Notice”).

3.4 Survey; Due Diligence; Environmental; Inspection. At its option, Buyer may obtain a survey of the Land and Improvements prepared by a duly licensed land surveyor and/or engineer, which will be certified to Buyer and Escrow Agent (the “Survey”). The parties acknowledge and agree that should Buyer elect to not obtain a current survey of the Property, then the standard survey title exception will not be deleted from the final owner’s title insurance policy or the lender’s policy.

4. Title.

4.1 Condition at Closing. At the Closing, Seller will convey fee simple title to the Land and Improvements, marketable and good of record and in fact, and insurable as such by the Title Company at regular rates, on a Florida ALTA Form B Owner’s Policy, free and clear of any and all liens, defects, encumbrances, leases, easements, covenants, restrictions, or other matters whatsoever, whether recorded or unrecorded, except for: (i) the lien of real estate taxes or assessments not yet due and payable; and (ii) Title Objections approved by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof.

4.2 Title Objections. Seller has caused to be delivered to Buyer a title insurance commitment issued by the Title Company (the “Title Commitment”) at the sole cost of Seller. If Buyer determines that any matter or matters shown on the Survey or the Title Commitment are unacceptable, Buyer has until the fifth (5th) calendar day after the Effective Date, to give notice to Seller of such objections which Buyer may have to the Title Commitment and the Survey (the “Title Objections”). If Buyer fails to give any notice of Title Objections to Seller by such date, Buyer is deemed to waive this right to object to any title exceptions or defects in the Title Commitment or the Survey. Buyer has the continuing right to raise Title Objections should any new exceptions appear when Seller updates the Title Commitment prior to Closing. Within five (5) days after receipt of the Title Objections, Seller shall notify Buyer either that: (i) Seller will correct such Title Objections; or (ii) Seller will not correct such Title Objections. In the event that Seller elects to correct such Title Objections, Seller shall correct such Title Objections at or prior to the Closing. In the event that Seller elects not to correct such Title Objections, Buyer will have the right, in its sole discretion, to either: (i) accept title “as is”; or (ii) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit will be promptly returned to Buyer and the parties hereto will be released from any further liabilities or obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.2 and regardless of whether included in the Title Objections, Seller shall, at Seller’s sole expense, release at or prior to the Closing all liens and encumbrances securing the payment of money.
