3.	INSPECTION

Buyer’s Inspections. For seventy-five (75) days following the Effective Date of this Agreement (the “Contingency Period”), Buyer has the right, at its own expense, to conduct any sampling, including soil, groundwater or surface water sampling, survey, environmental study, topography study, structural inspection, termite inspection or any other evaluation of the real property or structures as Buyer, in Buyer’s sole discretion, may elect to conduct; Buyer’s right to conduct the foregoing may be exercised by engineers, surveyors, consultants, inspectors or other examiners. All such inspections and studies shall be upon reasonable advance notice, subject to Seller’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, and conducted in a fashion that does not unreasonably disturb the Property or Seller’s operations. Buyer’s entry upon the Property shall be made in strict accordance with and adherence to Seller’s reasonable conditions, as well as Seller’s reasonable confidentiality and security procedures.

Provided, however, that prior to the expiration of the Contingency Period, Buyer may deliver to Seller a written request that the Seller remedy any unsatisfactory conditions. In the event that Buyer and Seller do not reach agreement regarding remedying the unsatisfactory conditions prior to the expiration of the Contingency Period, then Buyer shall have the right to elect to proceed or terminate this Agreement as set forth above.

4.TITLE INSURANCE, SURVEY AND CLOSING COSTS

Title Insurance. Within 5 business days following the Effective Date of this Agreement, Seller shall order from Title Agent a Commitment for Title Insurance (“Commitment”), which Commitment shall be for an ALTA extended coverage owner’s title insurance policy (the “Owner’s Policy”) on the Property to Buyer.

In addition to the Commitment, Title Agent shall simultaneously deliver to Buyer legible copies of all documents identified in Part Two of Schedule B of the Commitment, as well as copies of all vesting documents. If such Commitment contains any title exceptions which are not acceptable to Buyer, in its sole discretion, then Buyer may notify Seller of any unacceptable exceptions to which it objects within twenty (20) days of receipt of the Commitment. If Buyer fails to so notify Seller of any unacceptable exceptions to which it objects within such twenty (20) day period, then all exceptions set forth in Schedule B of the Commitment shall be deemed accepted by Buyer and shall constitute “Permitted Exceptions.” Buyer acknowledges that Seller is not transferring its ownership interest in the OG Lease attached hereto as Exhibit B and subject to the terms of Section 14C, Buyer agrees that the OG Lease is a Permitted Exception. If Buyer timely notifies Seller of any unacceptable exceptions to title within the above stated time frame, Seller, in Seller’s sole discretion, shall have twenty (20) days from the date Seller receives notice of such unacceptable exceptions to remove or cure such exceptions. Seller shall be deemed to have given notice to Buyer that Seller refuses to cure any unacceptable exceptions, which Seller may so do in its sole discretion, unless Seller, within ten (10) days after receipt of notice from Buyer, shall notify Buyer in writing that Seller will attempt to cure such unacceptable exceptions. If Seller fails to give written notice to Buyer that it will attempt to cure such unacceptable exceptions or refuses to cure said unacceptable exceptions within the time period above provided, Buyer may (a) terminate this Agreement within ten (10) days after Seller gives notice, or is deemed to have given notice, that Seller refuses to cure such unacceptable exceptions and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Buyer, or (b) if Buyer fails to so terminate, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived such exceptions and accept title subject thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, at its cost, shall be obligated to cure or remove by Closing, all mortgages, deeds of trust and other monetary liens against the Property. Buyer will be responsible for the cost of said title commitment and title policy.

Survey. Seller shall cause, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, a certified ALTA/ACSM Land Title Survey of the Property (the “Survey”) to be completed by a surveyor licensed in the State of Ohio and delivered to Title Agent and Buyer within thirty (30) days of the date of this Agreement, whereupon the legal description of the Survey shall control over the legal description in Exhibit A attached hereto to the extent they

may be inconsistent. The Survey shall meet the Minimum Standard Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys. The Survey shall set forth the legal description and boundaries of the Property and all easements, encroachments and improvements thereon.

Exceptions. If the Survey reveals any exceptions to title or any matters affecting the Property which are not acceptable to Buyer (“Survey Exceptions”), Buyer may notify Seller of such Survey Exceptions within twenty (20) days after Buyer’s receipt of the Survey (the “Survey Notice”), whereupon Seller may, at Seller’s option, cure any disapproved Survey Exceptions. If Seller fails to cure any Survey Exceptions referenced in the Survey Notice within the Contingency Period, Buyer shall have the option to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice thereof to Seller. In the event Buyer fails to notify Seller of any Survey Exceptions, Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the Survey and any matters set forth thereon shall be considered Permitted Exceptions.

Closing Costs. Seller shall be responsible for any documentary stamps, surtax, or transfer taxes and any escrow or recording fees. If Seller or Buyer elect to utilize a broker, each party is individually responsible for any and all broker costs. Any additional costs associated with closing not mentioned herein shall be split in the normal and customary way for properties of this type located in the local market.
