5. Owner
Warranties
Owner represents and warrants to Bolsa as follows:
that Owner is the sole owner of and has the exclusive possession of
the Property free and clear of all claims, liens, encumbrances,
royalties, options, agreements or rights of third-parties
whatsoever, except as specifically set forth in Exhibit A hereto;
that all necessary taxes and assessments have been timely made in
accordance with all applicable local, state and federal laws; that
Owner is in actual possession of the Property and knows of no claim
to or possession of the Property adverse to Owner; and that Owner
has the full right, power and capacity to enter into this Agreement
on the terms and conditions herein contained. Owner covenants that
the status of the Property, as represented above, shall not be
affected adversely because of any act or omission on the part of
Owner during the term of this Agreement. Owner hereby further
represents and warrants to Bolsa, its successors and assigns: that
the consummation of this Agreement will not result in or constitute
a default or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both,
would be a default, breach or violation of any contract, commitment
or arrangement to which Owner is a party or by which Owner is
bound; that Owner shall not create, permit or
5
suffer any liens or encumbrances, reservations,
restrictions or easements on the Property; that to the best of
Owner's knowledge, there are no environmental or physical
conditions on the Property which are, or would be, a violation of
any applicable federal, state or local law, regulation or ordinance
and that Owner has not received any notice of any investigation of
any such condition or violation; that Owner has good right and
lawful authority to convey the Property; and that Owner shall
defend the title to the Property against the lawful claims of all
persons whomsoever.
Bolsa represents and warrants to Owner as follows:
Bolsa has full power and authority to enter into and perform this
Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof; and
the individual executing this Agreement on behalf of Bolsa is
authorized to do so, and, upon execution, this Agreement shall be
binding and enforceable upon Bolsa.
7. Lesser
Interest Provision
If Owner's title to the Property (or any portion
thereof) is less than the entire undivided interest in and to the
Property or is subject to a superior adverse interest, Bolsa shall
have the right to elect to accept such title as Owner has by giving
notice of such election to Owner. Since the Purchase Price is
predicated upon Owner owning the entire undivided interest in the
Property free and clear of any superior adverse interests, if Owner
owns less than the entire interest, or such interest is subject to
a superior adverse interest, then the Purchase Price shall be
reduced proportionately. Properties represented as being fractional
interests in Exhibit A hereto shall not be deemed or regarded as
insufficient by virtue of being fractional or partial interests,
unless the actual interest owned is less than the fractional
interest represented in Exhibit A.
8. Real Estate
Commissions
Bolsa and Owner each represent to the other that no
real estate brokers or other parties have been involved in
connection with this transaction that are entitled to a commission
or other compensation as a result of this Agreement other than
Cochise County Realty, Sunsites, Arizona who was retained by Owner
and whose commission shall be paid solely by Owner. Bolsa and Owner
do each hereby agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from
and against any costs, expenses or liability for compensation,
commissions or charges which may be claimed by any broker, finder
or other similar party, by reason of any dealings or actions of the
other party.
6
9. Default
In the event Owner or Bolsa considers that the other
party has not complied with any material obligation hereunder,
either express or implied, such party shall give notice to the
other setting forth with specificity in what respect it is claimed
that there is a material default under this Agreement. The giving
of such notice and the passage of fifteen (15) days after its
effective date without the receiving party commencing action
reasonably designed to cure the alleged default and thereafter
diligently pursue the same to completion, shall give rise to an
"Event of Default."
In the case of an Event of Default on the part of
Owner, Bolsa's exclusive remedies for such failure shall be to: (i)
terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money;
(ii) waive the default and proceed with closing; or (iii) institute
an action for specific performance. Owner hereby acknowledges
