In the event Seller fails to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement (other than a breach of representation or warranty) for any reason except failure by Purchaser to perform hereunder, Purchaser may elect, as its sole remedy (i) to 14 <PAGE> terminate this Agreement by giving Seller timely written notice of such election prior to or at Closing and recover the Earnest Money in accordance with Section 7.4 (less the Independent Consideration which shall be paid to Seller), and recover the Default Payment (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) seek the remedy of specific performance against Seller. As used herein, "DEFAULT PAYMENT" shall mean a sum of money equal to Purchaser's third party expenses actually incurred in the negotiation of this Agreement, its due diligence regarding the Property, and all other expenses attributable to this Agreement to the date of Seller's default, not to exceed $50,000. In the event that Purchaser elects to recover the Default Payment, it shall have first given Seller ten (10) days' written notice and opportunity to cure its default (except for failure to convey title at Closing). In the event of a material breach of representation or warranty by Seller discovered by Purchaser after Closing, Purchaser's remedies are limited to those described in Section 8.4. IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER, ITS DIRECT OR INDIRECT PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, OWNERS, OR AFFILIATES, ANY OFFICER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE, ATTORNEY, OR AGENT OF THE FOREGOING, OR ANY AFFILIATE OR CONTROLLING PERSON THEREOF HAVE ANY LIABILITY, BEYOND ITS INTEREST IN THE REAL PROPERTY, FOR ANY CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION, OR OTHER LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, COMMON LAW, STATUTE, EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE (COLLECTIVELY, THE "CLAIMS"), AND PURCHASER HEREBY WAIVES THE CLAIMS. Section 7.3 Attorneys' Fees. In the event either party hereto is required to employ an attorney in connection with claims by one party against the other arising from the operation of this Agreement, the non-prevailing party shall pay the prevailing party all reasonable fees and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with such transaction. Section 7.4 Disposition of Earnest Money. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by either Seller or Purchaser, Closing Agent is authorized to deliver the Earnest Money to the party hereto entitled to same pursuant to the terms hereof on or before the fifth (5th) day following receipt by the Closing Agent and non-terminating party of written notice of such termination from the terminating party, unless the other party hereto notifies the Closing Agent that it disputes the right of the other party to receive the Earnest Money. In such event, the Closing Agent may interplead the Earnest Money into a court of competent jurisdiction in Dallas County, Texas. All attorneys' fees and costs and Closing Agent's costs and expenses incurred in connection with such interpleader shall be assessed against the party that is not 15 <PAGE> awarded the Earnest Money or if the Earnest Money is distributed in part to both parties, then in the inverse proportion of such distribution. ARTICLE VIII. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND COVENANTS Section 8.1 Purchaser's Representations and Warranties. (a) Authority of Purchaser. Purchaser represents and warrants that Purchaser has full right, power, and authority to enter into this Agreement and, at Closing, will have full right, power and authority to consummate the sale provided for herein. (b) No Bankruptcy or Receivership. That at no time on or before the Closing Date, shall any of the following have occurred with respect to Purchaser, and if Purchaser is a partnership, to any general partners of Purchaser: (i) the commencement of a case under Title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or under any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy law or other similar law; (ii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver of any property interest; (iii) an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (iv) an attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of a substantial property interest; (v) the taking of, failure to take, or submission to any action indicating an inability to meet its financial obligations as they accrue; or (vi) a dissolution or liquidation, death or incapacity. Section 8.2 Seller's Representations and Warranties. (a) Seller is a Missouri corporation validly existing and in good standing, and Seller is qualified to do business in all states in which qualification is necessary to conduct its business, and has the authority to execute this Agreement and conclude the transactions contemplated therein. (b) There is no pending or, to the knowledge of Seller, threatened condemnation or similar proceeding or special assessment (inclusive of assessments for street widening, repair, or improvement), or change in zoning affecting the Real Property. (c) Seller has received no written notice concerning the Property from any Governmental Authority (as defined below in this Section 8.2) about a violation of any federal, state, county, or city statute, ordinance, code, rule, or regulation or stating that any investigation has commenced or is contemplated regarding any violation. 16 <PAGE> (d) There is no pending or, to Seller's knowledge, threatened litigation or administrative proceeding affecting the ownership or use of the Property. (e) There are no attachments, executions, assignments for the benefit of creditors, or voluntary or involuntary proceedings in bankruptcy or under other debtor relief laws contemplated by, pending, or threatened against Seller. (f) Seller has no reason to believe that any of the Documents are materially false or misleading. The term "GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY" means the United States of America, the state, county, and city where the Property is located, and any other political subdivision in which the Property is located or which exercises jurisdiction over the Property, and any agency, department, commission, board, bureau, property owners association, utility district, flood control district, improvement district, or similar district, or other instrumentality of any of them. Section 8.3 Seller's Covenants. Seller hereby covenants and agrees with Purchaser as follows: (a) At all times from the Effective Date until the Closing Date, Seller shall maintain (or cause to be maintained, in accordance with the terms of the Lease) in force, fire and extended coverage insurance upon the Real Property for not less than the full replacement value of the Real Property, and commercial general liability insurance with respect to injury or death to persons and damage to property in an amount not less than $1,000,000; and (b) Prior to the Closing, Seller shall maintain the Improvements in their present condition and repair, except for normal wear and tear and any casualty or condemnation, and Seller shall not remove any fixtures, equipment, furnishings and other personalty from the Improvements without replacing them with new items. Section 8.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the representations and warranties set forth in Section 8.2 shall be continuing and shall be true and correct on and as of the Closing Date with the same force and effect as if made at that time, and such representations and warranties shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year, at which time they shall expire and terminate and be of no further force and effect unless a claim for breach thereof has been instituted within such one (1) year period; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Purchaser shall have the right to bring an 17 <PAGE> action thereon only if Purchaser has given the Seller written notice of the circumstances giving rise to the alleged breach within such one (1) year period. Purchaser hereby waives and relinquishes all right to seek punitive or consequential damages. Section 8.5 Knowledge Standard. For purposes of this Agreement, wherever the terms "SELLER'S KNOWLEDGE" or "TO THE BEST OF SELLER'S KNOWLEDGE" is used, it shall be limited to the actual knowledge (being the current, conscious awareness of facts or other information, without investigation or implied duty to investigate) of Chas Michel, John Davis, and Bryan Spain (the "SELLER REPRESENTATIVES"); provided, however, the foregoing individuals are acting for and on behalf and in their respective capacities as officers of Seller or one or more of Seller's affiliates and are in no manner expressly or impliedly making any of these representations in their individual capacities and Purchaser hereby waives any right to sue or to seek any judgment or claim against any of them on an individual basis. The term "TO SELLER'S KNOWLEDGE" or "TO THE BEST OF SELLER'S KNOWLEDGE" shall not include knowledge imputed to the Seller from any other person. Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that the Seller Representatives are the employees of Seller most likely to be informed as to the Property. ARTICLE IX. CONDEMNATION Section 9.1 Condemnation. If, prior to Closing, any governmental authority or other entity having condemnation authority shall institute an eminent domain proceeding or take any steps preliminary thereto (including the giving of any direct or indirect notice of intent to institute such proceedings) with regard to a Material Portion (as hereinafter defined) of the Real Property, and the same is not dismissed on or before ten (10) days prior to Closing, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller on or before the earlier to occur of (a) ten (10) days following notice by Seller to Purchaser of such condemnation, or (b) the Closing Date. In the event Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding sentence, Purchaser shall be conclusively deemed to have elected to close the acquisition of the Property subject to such condemnation, without any reduction in Purchase Price, and waives any right to terminate this Agreement as a result thereof. For purposes of this Section 9.1, a "MATERIAL PORTION" shall mean that portion of the Real Property which, if taken or condemned, would reduce the value of the Property by not less than $250,000.00. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any eminent domain proceeding is instituted (or notice of which is given) solely for the taking of any subsurface rights for utility easements or for any right-of-way 18 <PAGE> easement, and the surface may, after such taking, be used in substantially the same manner as though such rights had not been taken, Purchaser shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement as to any part of the Real Property, but any award resulting therefrom shall be the exclusive property of Purchaser upon Closing. In the event Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1, the Earnest Money (less the Independent Consideration) shall be returned to Purchaser, and neither party to this Agreement shall thereafter have any further rights or obligations hereunder except as otherwise provided in Sections 5.3 and 6.4 hereof. If Purchaser waives (or is deemed to have waived) the right to terminate this Agreement as a result of such a condemnation, despite such condemnation, Seller and Purchaser shall close this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof with no reduction in the Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser at Closing all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to all proceeds resulting or to result from said condemnation. ARTICLE X. RISK OF LOSS Section 10.1 Risk of Loss. Until Closing, Seller alone shall bear the risk of loss should there be damage to any of the Improvements by fire or other casualty (collectively, "CASUALTY"). If, prior to the Closing, any of the Improvements shall be damaged by a Casualty, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser written notice ("CASUALTY LOSS NOTICE") of such Casualty after it has made its determination provided for in Section 10.2 hereof. Section 10.2 Material Loss. For the purposes of Sections 10.2 and 10.3, "MATERIAL DAMAGE" shall mean damage to the Improvements of such nature that the cost of restoring the same to their condition prior to the Casualty will, in Seller's determination, exceed $250,000.00, whether or not such damage is covered by insurance. If, in Seller's determination, the Improvements have sustained Material Damage by a Casualty, Seller may, at its option, terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Purchaser on or before Closing, and neither party hereto shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (except pursuant to Sections 5.3 and 6.4 hereof). In the event Seller does not so terminate this Agreement, Purchaser may, at its sole option, within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Casualty Loss Notice, either (a) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice of same to Seller, or (b) waive its right of termination and proceed to close this transaction in accordance with the terms hereof without reduction to the Purchase Price (the "WAIVER OPTION"). Failure of Purchaser to deliver written notice of termination within said fifteen (15) day period shall be conclusively deemed to be an election by Purchaser of the Waiver Option. In the event Seller or Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.2, the Earnest Money (less the 19 <PAGE> Independent Consideration) shall be returned to Purchaser and thereafter neither party to this Agreement shall thereafter have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except as otherwise provided in Sections 5.3 and 6.4 hereof. If Purchaser elects the Waiver Option, then Seller shall repair the Improvements to substantially their condition prior to such damage. Section 10.3 Non-Material Loss. In the event, in Seller's determination, the Improvements have sustained less than Material Damage by a Casualty, the rights and obligations of the parties shall not be affected thereby and Seller shall repair the Improvements to substantially their condition prior to such damage. Section 10.4 Delay in Completion of Repairs. If Seller has undertaken repairs and if the repairs cannot be completed by the Closing Date, Seller shall postpone the Closing Date until five (5) days following substantial completion of the repairs. Section 10.5 Postponement of Closing. If, as a result of a Casualty any determination, election or agreement required by the terms of this Article X is not made by the Closing Date, the Closing Date shall be extended until twenty (20) days after said determination, election or agreement is made, subject to such further extension as may be allowed by the terms of this Article X, notwithstanding anything in Section 6.1 of this Agreement to the contrary; provided, however, if said determination, election or agreement has not been made within thirty (30) days following the originally scheduled Closing Date, this Agreement shall automatically terminate, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (except pursuant to Sections 5.3 and 6.4 hereof) and the Earnest Money (less the Independent Consideration) shall be returned to Purchaser.
