part, the conveyance of the above-c ptioned Property from the Village to the Township; and
WHEREAS, the Village desires to remain in possession of the Property for a period of
time after the closing date and the Township is willing to permit the Village to remain in
possession of the Property, including but not limited to, all buildings and structures currently
located on the Property, on the hereafter stated terms, and in return for the considerations noted
below.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties mutually agree as follows:
1. The Village shall be allowed to retain sole and exclusive possession of the Property until
February 1, 2019, at 11:59 P.M. ("the Possession Date"). In the event the Village desires to
deliver possession of the Property to the Township prior to the Possession Date, the Village shall
give not less than ten (10) days' notice. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, from the Closing Date through the Possession Date (or the date on which possession of
the Property is delivered to the Township if sooner), the Village agrees to permit the Township
and any authorized representatives of the Township to enter the Property (and the building
located thereon) upon at least twenty-four (24) hours' prior written notice (except in case of
emergency for which no notice shall be required) and during normal business hours for the
purpose of inspecting the Property and the improvements therein.
2. On the Closing Date, the Village shall deposit in escrow with William J. Payne, Attorney,
as "Escrowee", the sum of Twenty Five Thousand ($25,000.00) Dollars. If possession of the
Property (in the condition required by the terms of this Agreement) has not been delivered by the
Village to the Township on or before the Possession Date, then from and after the Possession

each day that possession has not been so delivered to the Township, and the Village shall
continue to be liable to the Township for such daily rate of $278.00 for each day that possession

of the Property is withheld from the Township and until such time as possession of the Property
is delivered to the Township, even after all of the escrowed funds may have been entirely paid to
the Township, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to the Township.
Payments from Escrowee to the Township shall be made on a weekly basis in arrears. Any
balance of such escrowed funds held by Escrowee following the date on which the Village
delivers possession of the Property to the Township (in the condition required by the terms of
this Agreement) shall be returned to the Village. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that
possession of the Property has not been delivered by the Village to the Township on or before
June 30, 2019, then, without limiting any of the Township's rights in connection with the Village
occupying the Property after the Possession Date, the daily rate set forth above shall increase to
$333.33 for each day that possession of the Property is withheld from the Township and until
such time as possession of the Property is delivered to the Township, and the Village shall pay
the Township for all damages, consequential as well as direct, sustained by reason of the
retention of possession by the Village.
3. The use and occupancy of the Property after the Closing Date shall be at the Village's own
risk and the Village agrees to indemnify, save and hold the Township harmless from and against
any and all damages, loss, expenses, costs, claims or demands of any nature (including

the Village subsequent to the Closing Date.
The Village shall retain full contents and liability insurance coverage on the Property through the
actual date possession of the Property is delivered to the Township regardless of the stated
Possession Date. Such insurance shall name the Township as additional insured or loss payee (as
appropriate). All personal property kept in the Property by the Village shall be at the Village's
sole risk and the Township shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage thereto, or
any theft thereof. The Village shall provide proof of its insurance being in effect on the Closing
Date. In addition to the insurance coverages provided above, the Village shall maintain an All -
Risk Insurance or Special Causes of Loss Form policy covering the Property and all
improvements located therein (including the building located therein) in an amount of one
hundred percent (100%) of the replacement value of such improvements, and with such
deductible as a reasonably prudent owner of similarly located commercial properties would
consider appropriate. This insurance may be included under a blanket policy inclusive of the
contents insurance coverage described above, and shall (A) name the Township as the insured
(or additional insured if included under a blanket policy); (B) provide that no act of the Village
shall impede the right of the Township to receive and collect the insurance proceeds; and (C)
provide that the right of the Township to the insurance proceeds in the event of covered loss to
the Property shall not be diminished because of any insurance carried by the Village for the
Village's own account. Notwithstanding that the Village may be a named insured with respect to
such insurance policy covering the Property and all improvements thereon, the Village
acknowledges that it has no right to receive any proceeds from such insurance policy (except to
the extent that the Village's personal property is insured by the same policy, and then only to the
extent of proceeds attributable to the Village's personal property).
4. The Village remains responsible for the full payment of the cost of all utility services
furnished to the Property through the actual date the Village delivers possession to the Township.
The Village shall keep all utilities in the Village's name through the date of possession.

to the Township, the Village shall maintain the Property and all improvements therein in good
condition and repair. During such time, the Township shall have no obligation to perform any
maintenance or make any repairs or replacements, unless such repairs or replacements are
necessitated by the negligence or willful misconduct of the Township or its authorized
representatives. Additionally during such time, the Village shall make no alterations to the
Property or the improvements therein, other than minor, cosmetic alterations, without first
obtaining the prior approval of the Township.
6. The escrow funds shall also stand as a damage deposit to guarantee the obligations of the
Village pursuant to the relevant provisions of this Agreement and the IGA with respect to the
condition in which the Village is to deliver the Property to the Township (although the escrow
funds shall not be deemed a limitation on the damages recoverable by the Township; and in the
event there are insufficient escrowed funds to reimburse the Township for non-performance of
any of the Village's obligations, the Village shall pay any shortfall upon demand). In addition to
the Township's right to inspect the Property prior to the Closing Date, the Township shall have
the right to inspect the Property at the time possession thereof is delivered to the Township. The
escrow funds shall not be released to the Village until such time as the Township has verified
that possession of the Property has been delivered to the Township in broom clean condition
with all personal property and debris removed, and all fixtures left in place, and otherwise in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Additionally, the parties acknowledge that the
Property includes certain partially enclosed structures near the rear of the Property which the
Village uses to store materials such as salt, sand and other materials. Prior to the time possession
of the Property is delivered to the Township, the Village shall remove the contents of such
structures from the Property, unless the Township notifies the Village that the Township desires
for all or a portion of such materials to remain. Township shall have the right to go through the
Property prior to delivery of possession to ensure the Village's compliance with the foregoing.
7. This Agreement shall not be interpreted as a lease in favor of the Village as a tenant, but
constitute a license to remain in use and occupancy of the Property as provided for herein. No
landlord -tenant relationship has been created hereby which would give rise to any obligation of
the buyer to give the Seller any notice under the Forcible Entry and Detainer Act.
