ESCROW AGENT AND BROKER 280

13. ESCROW AGENT: Any Closing Agent or Escrow Agent (collectively “Agent”) receiving the Deposit, other funds 281

and other items is authorized, and agrees by acceptance of them, to deposit them promptly, hold same in escrow 282

within the State of Florida and, subject to COLLECTION, disburse them in accordance with terms and conditions 283

of this Contract. Failure of funds to become COLLECTED shall not excuse Buyer’s performance. When conflicting 284

demands for the Deposit are received, or Agent has a good faith doubt as to entitlement to the Deposit, Agent may 285

take such actions permitted by this Paragraph 13, as Agent deems advisable. If in doubt as to Agent’s duties or 286

liabilities under this Contract, Agent may, at Agent’s option, continue to hold the subject matter of the escrow until 287

the parties agree to its disbursement or until a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine 288

the rights of the parties, or Agent may deposit same with the clerk of the circuit court having jurisdiction of the 289

dispute. An attorney who represents a party and also acts as Agent may represent such party in such action. Upon 290

notifying all parties concerned of such action, all liability on the part of Agent shall fully terminate, except to the 291

extent of accounting for any items previously delivered out of escrow. If a licensed real estate broker, Agent will 292

comply with provisions of Chapter 475, F.S., as amended and FREC rules to timely resolve escrow disputes through 293

mediation, arbitration, interpleader or an escrow disbursement order. 294

In any proceeding between Buyer and Seller wherein Agent is made a party because of acting as Agent hereunder, 295

or in any proceeding where Agent interpleads the subject matter of the escrow, Agent shall recover reasonable 296

attorney’s fees and costs incurred, to be paid pursuant to court order out of the escrowed funds or equivalent. Agent 297

shall not be liable to any party or person for mis-delivery of any escrowed items, unless such mis-delivery is due to 298

Agent’s willful breach of this Contract or Agent’s gross negligence. This Paragraph 13 shall survive Closing or 299

termination of this Contract. 300

14. PROFESSIONAL ADVICE; BROKER LIABILITY: Broker advises Buyer and Seller to verify Property condition, 301

square footage, and all other facts and representations made pursuant to this Contract and to consult appropriate 302

professionals for legal, tax, environmental, and other specialized advice concerning matters affecting the Property 303

and the transaction contemplated by this Contract. Broker represents to Buyer that Broker does not reside on the 304

Property and that all representations (oral, written or otherwise) by Broker are based on Seller representations or 305

public records. BUYER AGREES TO RELY SOLELY ON SELLER, PROFESSIONAL INSPECTORS AND 306

GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES FOR VERIFICATION OF PROPERTY CONDITION, SQUARE FOOTAGE AND 307

FACTS THAT MATERIALLY AFFECT PROPERTY VALUE AND NOT ON THE REPRESENTATIONS (ORAL, 308

WRITTEN OR OTHERWISE) OF BROKER. Buyer and Seller (individually, the “Indemnifying Party”) each 309

individually indemnifies, holds harmless, and releases Broker and Broker’s officers, directors, agents and 310

employees from all liability for loss or damage, including all costs and expenses, and reasonable attorney’s fees at 311

all levels, suffered or incurred by Broker and Broker’s officers, directors, agents and employees in connection with 312

or arising from claims, demands or causes of action instituted by Buyer or Seller based on: (i) inaccuracy of 313

information provided by the Indemnifying Party or from public records; (ii) Indemnifying Party’s misstatement(s) or 314

failure to perform contractual obligations; (iii) Broker’s performance, at Indemnifying Party’s request, of any task 315

beyond the scope of services regulated by Chapter 475, F.S., as amended, including Broker’s referral, 316

recommendation or retention of any vendor for, or on behalf of, Indemnifying Party; (iv) products or services 317

provided by any such vendor for, or on behalf of, Indemnifying Party; and (v) expenses incurred by any such vendor. 318

paying their other costs under this Contract whether or not this transaction closes. This Paragraph 14 will not relieve 320

Broker of statutory obligations under Chapter 475, F.S., as amended. For purposes of this Paragraph 14, Broker 321

will be treated as a party to this Contract. This Paragraph 14 shall survive Closing or termination of this Contract. 322

DEFAULT AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION 323

15. DEFAULT: 324

(a) BUYER DEFAULT: If Buyer fails, neglects or refuses to perform Buyer’s obligations under this Contract, 325

including payment of the Deposit, within the time(s) specified, Seller may elect to recover and retain the Deposit 326

A. TITLE: 358

(i) TITLE EVIDENCE; RESTRICTIONS; EASEMENTS; LIMITATIONS: Within the time period provided in 359

Paragraph 9(c), the Title Commitment, with legible copies of instruments listed as exceptions attached thereto, shall 360

be issued and delivered to Buyer. The Title Commitment shall set forth those matters to be discharged by Seller at 361

or before Closing and shall provide that, upon recording of the deed to Buyer, an owner’s policy of title insurance 362

in the amount of the Purchase Price, shall be issued to Buyer insuring Buyer’s marketable title to the Real Property, 363

subject only to the following matters: (a) comprehensive land use plans, zoning, and other land use restrictions, 364

prohibitions and requirements imposed by governmental authority; (b) restrictions and matters appearing on the 365

Plat or otherwise common to the subdivision; (c) outstanding oil, gas and mineral rights of record without right of 366

entry; (d) unplatted public utility easements of record (located contiguous to real property lines and not more than 367

10 feet in width as to rear or front lines and 7 1/2 feet in width as to side lines); (e) taxes for year of Closing and 368

subsequent years; and (f) assumed mortgages and purchase money mortgages, if any (if additional items, attach 369

addendum); provided, that, none prevent use of Property for RESIDENTIAL PURPOSES. If there exists at Closing 370

any violation of items identified in (b) – (f) above, then the same shall be deemed a title defect. Marketable title shall 371

be determined according to applicable Title Standards adopted by authority of The Florida Bar and in accordance 372

with law. 373

(ii) TITLE EXAMINATION: Buyer shall have 5 days after receipt of Title Commitment to examine it and notify Seller 374

in writing specifying defect(s), if any, that render title unmarketable. If Seller provides Title Commitment and it is 375

delivered to Buyer less than 5 days prior to Closing Date, Buyer may extend Closing for up to 5 days after date of 376

receipt to examine same in accordance with this STANDARD A. Seller shall have 30 days (“Cure Period”) after 377

receipt of Buyer’s notice to take reasonable diligent efforts to remove defects. If Buyer fails to so notify Seller, Buyer 378

shall be deemed to have accepted title as it then is. If Seller cures defects within Cure Period, Seller will deliver 379

written notice to Buyer (with proof of cure acceptable to Buyer and Buyer’s attorney) and the parties will close this 380

Contract on Closing Date (or if Closing Date has passed, within 10 days after Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s notice). If 381

Seller is unable to cure defects within Cure Period, then Buyer may, within 5 days after expiration of Cure Period,382

STANDARDS FOR REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS (“STANDARDS”) CONTINUED

Buyer’s Initials _________ __________ Page 8 of 12 Seller’s Initials __________ __________

deliver written notice to Seller: (a) extending Cure Period for a specified period not to exceed 120 days within which 383

Seller shall continue to use reasonable diligent effort to remove or cure the defects (“Extended Cure Period”); or 384

(b) electing to accept title with existing defects and close this Contract on Closing Date (or if Closing Date has 385

passed, within the earlier of 10 days after end of Extended Cure Period or Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s notice), or (c) 386

electing to terminate this Contract and receive a refund of the Deposit, thereby releasing Buyer and Seller from all 387

further obligations under this Contract. If after reasonable diligent effort, Seller is unable to timely cure defects, and 388

Buyer does not waive the defects, this Contract shall terminate, and Buyer shall receive a refund of the Deposit, 389

thereby releasing Buyer and Seller from all further obligations under this Contract. 390

B. SURVEY: If Survey discloses encroachments on the Real Property or that improvements located thereon 391

encroach on setback lines, easements, or lands of others, or violate any restrictions, covenants, or applicable 392

governmental regulations described in STANDARD A (i)(a), (b) or (d) above, Buyer shall deliver written notice of 393

such matters, together with a copy of Survey, to Seller within 5 days after Buyer’s receipt of Survey, but no later 394

than Closing. If Buyer timely delivers such notice and Survey to Seller, such matters identified in the notice and 395

Survey shall constitute a title defect, subject to cure obligations of STANDARD A above. If Seller has delivered a 396

prior survey, Seller shall, at Buyer’s request, execute an affidavit of “no change” to the Real Property since the 397

preparation of such prior survey, to the extent the affirmations therein are true and correct. 398

C. INGRESS AND EGRESS: Seller represents that there is ingress and egress to the Real Property and title to 399

the Real Property is insurable in accordance with STANDARD A without exception for lack of legal right of access. 400

D. LEASE INFORMATION: Seller shall, at least 10 days prior to Closing, furnish to Buyer estoppel letters from 401

tenant(s)/occupant(s) specifying nature and duration of occupancy, rental rates, advanced rent and security 402

the same information shall be furnished by Seller to Buyer within that time period in the form of a Seller’s affidavit 404

and Buyer may thereafter contact tenant(s) or occupant(s) to confirm such information. If Estoppel Letter(s) or 405

Seller’s affidavit, if any, differ materially from Seller’s representations and lease(s) provided pursuant to Paragraph 406

6, or if tenant(s)/occupant(s) fail or refuse to confirm Seller’s affidavit, Buyer may deliver written notice to Seller 407

within 5 days after receipt of such information, but no later than 5 days prior to Closing Date, terminating this 408

Contract and receive a refund of the Deposit, thereby releasing Buyer and Seller from all further obligations under 409

this Contract. Seller shall, at Closing, deliver and assign all leases to Buyer who shall assume Seller’s obligations 410

thereunder. 411

improved or repaired within that time, Seller shall deliver releases or waivers of construction liens executed by all 415

general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and materialmen in addition to Seller’s lien affidavit setting forth 416

names of all such general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and materialmen, further affirming that all charges 417

for improvements or repairs which could serve as a basis for a construction lien or a claim for damages have been 418

paid or will be paid at Closing. 419

F. TIME: Calendar days shall be used in computing time periods. Time is of the essence in this Contract. Other 420

than time for acceptance and Effective Date as set forth in Paragraph 3, any time periods provided for or dates 421

specified in this Contract, whether preprinted, handwritten, typewritten or inserted herein, which shall end or occur 422

is located) of the next business day. 424

G. FORCE MAJEURE: Buyer or Seller shall not be required to perform any obligation under this Contract or be 425

liable to each other for damages so long as performance or non-performance of the obligation, or the availability of 426

services, insurance or required approvals essential to Closing, is disrupted, delayed, caused or prevented by Force 427

Majeure. “Force Majeure” means: hurricanes, floods, extreme weather, earthquakes, fire, or other acts of God, 428

unusual transportation delays, or wars, insurrections, or acts of terrorism, which, by exercise of reasonable diligent 429

effort, the non-performing party is unable in whole or in part to prevent or overcome. All time periods, including 430

Closing Date, will be extended a reasonable time up to 7 days after the Force Majeure no longer prevents 431

performance under this Contract, provided, however, if such Force Majeure continues to prevent performance under 432

this Contract more than 30 days beyond Closing Date, then either party may terminate this Contract by delivering 433

written notice to the other and the Deposit shall be refunded to Buyer, thereby releasing Buyer and Seller from all 434

further obligations under this Contract. 435

H. CONVEYANCE: Seller shall convey marketable title to the Real Property by statutory warranty, trustee’s, 436

personal representative’s, or guardian’s deed, as appropriate to the status of Seller, subject only to matters 437

the party paying for the owner’s policy of title insurance and will take place in the county where the Real Property 443

sale, certificate(s) of title or other documents necessary to transfer title to the Property, construction lien affidavit(s), 448

owner’s possession and no lien affidavit(s), and assignment(s) of leases. Seller shall provide Buyer with paid 449

receipts for all work done on the Property pursuant to this Contract. Buyer shall furnish and pay for, as applicable, 450

(iii) FinCEN GTO NOTICE. If Closing Agent is required to comply with the U.S. Treasury Department’s 452

Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) Geographic Targeting Orders (“GTOs”), then Buyer 453

shall provide Closing Agent with the information related to Buyer and the transaction contemplated by this 454

Contract that is required to complete IRS Form 8300, and Buyer consents to Closing Agent’s collection and 455

report of said information to IRS. 456

(iv) PROCEDURE: The deed shall be recorded upon COLLECTION of all closing funds. If the Title Commitment 457

provides insurance against adverse matters pursuant to Section 627.7841, F.S., as amended, the escrow closing 458

procedure required by STANDARD J shall be waived, and Closing Agent shall, subject to COLLECTION of all 459

closing funds, disburse at Closing the brokerage fees to Broker and the net sale proceeds to Seller. 460

J. ESCROW CLOSING PROCEDURE: If Title Commitment issued pursuant to Paragraph 9(c) does not provide 461

for insurance against adverse matters as permitted under Section 627.7841, F.S., as amended, the following 462

escrow and closing procedures shall apply: (1) all Closing proceeds shall be held in escrow by the Closing Agent 463

for a period of not more than 10 days after Closing; (2) if Seller’s title is rendered unmarketable, through no fault of 464

Buyer, Buyer shall, within the 10 day period, notify Seller in writing of the defect and Seller shall have 30 days from 465

date of receipt of such notification to cure the defect; (3) if Seller fails to timely cure the defect, the Deposit and all 466

Closing funds paid by Buyer shall, within 5 days after written demand by Buyer, be refunded to Buyer and, 467

simultaneously with such repayment, Buyer shall return the Personal Property, vacate the Real Property and re-468

convey the Property to Seller by special warranty deed and bill of sale; and (4) if Buyer fails to make timely demand 469

for refund of the Deposit, Buyer shall take title as is, waiving all rights against Seller as to any intervening defect 470

except as may be available to Buyer by virtue of warranties contained in the deed or bill of sale. 471

K. PRORATIONS; CREDITS: The following recurring items will be made current (if applicable) and prorated as of 472

the day prior to Closing Date, or date of occupancy if occupancy occurs before Closing Date: real estate taxes 473

(including special benefit tax assessments imposed by a CDD), interest, bonds, association fees, insurance, rents 474

and other expenses of Property. Buyer shall have option of taking over existing policies of insurance, if assumable, 475

in which event premiums shall be prorated. Cash at Closing shall be increased or decreased as may be required 476

by prorations to be made through day prior to Closing. Advance rent and security deposits, if any, will be credited 477

to Buyer. Escrow deposits held by Seller’s mortgagee will be paid to Seller. Taxes shall be prorated based on 478

current year’s tax. If Closing occurs on a date when current year’s millage is not fixed but current year’s assessment 479

is available, taxes will be prorated based upon such assessment and prior year’s millage. If current year’s 480

assessment is not available, then taxes will be prorated on prior year’s tax. If there are completed improvements 481

on the Real Property by January 1st of year of Closing, which improvements were not in existence on January 1

482

of prior year, then taxes shall be prorated based upon prior year’s millage and at an equitable assessment to be 483

agreed upon between the parties, failing which, request shall be made to the County Property Appraiser for an 484

informal assessment taking into account available exemptions. In all cases, due allowance shall be made for the 485

maximum allowable discounts and applicable homestead and other exemptions. A tax proration based on an 486

estimate shall, at either party’s request, be readjusted upon receipt of current year’s tax bill. This STANDARD K 487

shall survive Closing. 488

(“Casualty Loss”) and cost of restoration (which shall include cost of pruning or removing damaged trees) does not 493

exceed 1.5% of Purchase Price, cost of restoration shall be an obligation of Seller and Closing shall proceed 494

pursuant to terms of this Contract. If restoration is not completed as of Closing, a sum equal to 125% of estimated 495

STANDARDS FOR REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS (“STANDARDS”) CONTINUED

Buyer’s Initials _________ __________ Page 10 of 12 Seller’s Initials __________ __________

cost to complete restoration (not to exceed 1.5% of Purchase Price) will be escrowed at Closing. If actual cost of 496

restoration exceeds escrowed amount, Seller shall pay such actual costs (but, not in excess of 1.5% of Purchase 497

Price). Any unused portion of escrowed amount shall be returned to Seller. If cost of restoration exceeds 1.5% of 498

Purchase Price, Buyer shall elect to either take Property “as is” together with the 1.5%, or receive a refund of the 499

Deposit thereby releasing Buyer and Seller from all further obligations under this Contract. Seller’s sole obligation 500

with respect to tree damage by casualty or other natural occurrence shall be cost of pruning or removal. 501

in all reasonable respects to effectuate the Exchange, including execution of documents; provided, however, 504

to be bound by it. 520

V. FIRPTA TAX WITHHOLDING: If a seller of U.S. real property is a “foreign person” as defined by FIRPTA, 534

Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”) requires the buyer of the real property to withhold up to 15% 535

of the amount realized by the seller on the transfer and remit the withheld amount to the Internal Revenue Service 536

(IRS) unless an exemption to the required withholding applies or the seller has obtained a Withholding Certificate 537

from the IRS authorizing a reduced amount of withholding. 538

to the IRS. 544

(ii) If Seller is a foreign person and has received a Withholding Certificate from the IRS which provides for reduced 545

or eliminated withholding in this transaction and provides same to Buyer by Closing, then Buyer shall withhold the 546

provided to Buyer the notice required by 26 CFR 1.1445-1(c) (2)(i)(B) but no Withholding Certificate has been 549

received as of Closing, Buyer shall, at Closing, withhold the applicable percentage of the amount realized by Seller 550

on the transfer and, at Buyer’s option, either (a) timely remit the withheld funds to the IRS or (b) place the funds in 551

escrow, at Seller’s expense, with an escrow agent selected by Buyer and pursuant to terms negotiated by the 552

(iv) In the event the net proceeds due Seller are not sufficient to meet the withholding requirement(s) in this 555

transaction, Seller shall deliver to Buyer, at Closing, the additional COLLECTED funds necessary to satisfy the 556

applicable requirement and thereafter Buyer shall timely remit said funds to the IRS or escrow the funds for 557
