The Buyer is relying <br />entirely upon information and knowledge obtained from the Buyer’s own investigation, experience <br />and knowledge obtained from the Buyer’s own investigation, experience or personal inspection of the <br />Property. The Buyer expressly assumes, at closing, all environmental and other liabilities with respect <br />to the Property and release and indemnify the EDA from same, whether such liability is imposed by <br />statute or derived from common law including, but not limited to, liabilities arising under the <br />Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), the <br />Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act <br />(“RCRA”), the federal Water Pollution Control Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Toxic <br />Substances Act, the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act, the Toxic Substances Control <br />Act and the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, all as amended, and all other comparable <br />federal, state or local environmental conservation or protection laws, rules or regulations. The <br />foregoing assumption and release shall survive Closing. All statements of fact or disclosures, if any, <br />made in this Agreement or in connection with this Agreement, do not constitute warranties or <br />representations of any nature. The foregoing provision shall survive Closing and shall not be deemed <br />merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at Closing. <br /> <br />11. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE BUYER. The Buyer represents <br />and warrants to the EDA that the Buyer is a Minnesota corporation; that the Buyer has the requisite <br />capacity, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the Buyer’s Closing Documents; <br />such execution, delivery and performance by the Buyer of such documents does not conflict with <br />or result in a violation of any judgment, order or decree of any court or arbiter to which the Buyer <br />is a party; such documents are valid and binding obligations of the Buyer, and are enforceable in <br />accordance with their terms. <br />12. CONDEMNATION. If, prior to the Closing, eminent domain proceedings are <br />commenced against all or any material part of the Property, the EDA shall immediately give notice <br />to the Buyer of such fact and at the Buyer’s option (to be exercised within 15 days after the EDA’s <br />notice), this Agreement shall terminate, in which event neither party will have further obligations <br />under this Agreement. The earnest money paid by the Buyer shall be returned to the Buyer. If the <br />Buyer fails to give such notice, then there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price, and the EDA <br />shall assign to the Buyer at the Closing all of EDA’s right, title and interest in and to any award <br />made or to be made in the condemnation proceedings. Prior to the Closing, the EDA shall not <br />designate counsel, appear in, or otherwise act with respect to the condemnation proceedings <br />without the Buyer’s prior written consent. For purposes of this section, the words “a material part” <br />means a part if acquired by a condemning authority would materially hinder Buyer’s operations <br />on the Property. <br />13. COMMISSIONS. With the exception of the Buyer’s Broker, both the Buyer and the <br />EDA represent that they have not entered into a contract with any other real estate broker, whereby <br />the broker is entitled to a commission resulting from the transaction contemplated by this <br />Agreement. Each party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other party against any <br />claim made by a real estate broker for a commission or fee based on alleged acts or agreements <br />with the indemnifying party. <br />14. REMEDIES. <br />
