and containing estoppel language confirming the Debt Documents in effect, the

outstanding balance, the absence of defaults, the amounts held in escrow and

such other matters as CSCP may reasonably request (collectively, the "Assumption

Documents"); provided, however, that it is expressly understood and agreed by

CSCP that no Seller shall have any obligation to permit at the Closing the

Stabilized Closing Date (as the same may have been extended pursuant to this

Section 1), CSCP shall have the right, at its option, to (i) remove the

and receive a corresponding reduction in the Consideration (unless CSCP shall

connection herewith except under those provisions that expressly survive a

termination of this Agreement)), or (ii) pay the portion of the Stabilized

Consideration allocable to the applicable Premises in cash or (iii) if the

to close set forth in this Section 1 have not been satisfied, CSCP shall have

the right, at its option, to (i) remove the concerned Premises from the Premises

being conveyed pursuant to this Agreement and receive a corresponding reduction

in the Consideration (unless CSCP shall elect that more than five (5) Stabilized

Premises in the aggregate be removed, regardless of the reason for removal,

Erie, Pennsylvania and owned by Buffalo Broad Company, LLC consisting of 0.675

acres and shown as Lot "A" on Exhibit RR attached hereto and made a part hereof

It shall be a condition precedent to CSCP's obligations to close that the

Existing Lender holding a loan secured by a mortgage covering the Conveyed

Buffalo Broad Property and the Released Buffalo Broad Property issue a written

release (the "Buffalo Broad Release") in recordable form satisfactory to the

 

 

                                       12

efforts to obtain the Buffalo Broad Release). In the event that the conditions

precedent to CSCP's obligation to close set forth in this Section 2 have not

been satisfied prior to the Scheduled Stabilized Closing Date (as the same may

have been extended pursuant to this Article V), CSCP shall have the right, at

its option, to remove the Conveyed Buffalo Broad Property from the Premises

being conveyed pursuant to this Agreement and receive a corresponding reduction

and convey the Property and to execute the documents referred to herein to be

actions required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this

Agreement. Except for the consent of the applicable Existing Lender, no

approvals or consents by third parties or Governmental Authorities are required

in order for Sellers to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The

execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance by each Seller of

its obligations hereunder will not conflict in any material respect with, or

result in a breach in any material respect of, any of the terms, conditions and

provisions of any organizational documents or other agreement binding upon such

Seller.

 

            (b) Neither any Seller nor, to the knowledge of any Seller, any of

its shareholders, members or partners, as the case may be, has (i) made a

writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature, (iii) had an attachment,

execution or other judicial seizure of any property interest which remains in

parties under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or

relief of debtors or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or

other similar official for it or any of its shareholders, members or partners or

            (h) Except as set forth in EXHIBIT N attached hereto and made a part

hereof, Sellers have not received any notes or written notices from any party

including, without limitation, any Governmental Authority, that the Premises or

the current use, occupancy or condition thereof violates any applicable laws,

ordinances, orders, rules, regulations, requirements ("Laws") issued by any

federal, state, county, municipal or other governmental or quasi-governmental

department, agency or authority having or asserting jurisdiction over or

affecting any of the Premises (each, a "Governmental Authority") relating to the

Premises (including, without limitation, the Americans With Disabilities Act of

thereon or applicable deed restrictions or other covenants, restrictions or

agreements (including, without limitation, any of the Permitted Exceptions),

covenants, restrictions or agreements, site plan approvals, zoning or

subdivision regulations or urban redevelopment plans, and (ii) the contemplated

use, occupation and condition of the Development Premises upon completion of the

Development Work (as hereinafter defined) will not violate in any material

respect any such Laws, deed restrictions or other covenants, restrictions or

agreements, site plan approvals, zoning or subdivision regulations or urban

redevelopment plans. The parking facilities at the Premises contain a sufficient

number of striped parking spaces to comply with all Laws and with all parking

commitments made by any Seller under the Leases and any other documents

affecting the Premises.

permits issued by any Governmental Authority or any board of fire underwriters

or real estate board or similar organization or institution necessary for the

operation of the Premises as currently conducted (collectively, the "Permits")

are in full force and effect, and are transferable with the Premises to CSCP

without charge. No written notice has been received by any Seller that the

Permits have been revoked or challenged. To Seller's knowledge, no default has

occurred in the due observance of any condition to any Permit, nor is there

lacking any Permit needed in connection with the ownership (in contradistinction

to the development) or, if the Premises is a Stabilized Premises, operation of

the Premises.
