(Address of Property)
17. ATTORNEY'S FEES: A Buyer, Seller, Listing Broker, Other Broker, or escrow agent who
prevails in any legal proceeding related to this contract is entitled to recover reasonable
attorney’s fees and all costs of such proceeding.
18. ESCROW:
A. ESCROW: The escrow agent is not (i) a party to this contract and does not have liability for
the performance or nonperformance of any party to this contract, (ii) liable for interest on
the earnest money and (iii) liable for the loss of any earnest money caused by the failure of
any financial institution in which the earnest money has been deposited unless the financial
institution is acting as escrow agent.
B. EXPENSES: At closing, the earnest money must be applied first to any cash down payment,
then to Buyer's Expenses and any excess refunded to Buyer. If no closing occurs, escrow
agent may: (i) require a written release of liability of the escrow agent from all parties, (ii)
require payment of unpaid expenses incurred on behalf of a party, and (iii) only deduct
from the earnest money the amount of unpaid expenses incurred on behalf of the party
receiving the earnest money.
C. DEMAND: Upon termination of this contract, either party or the escrow agent may send a
release of earnest money to each party and the parties shall execute counterparts of the
release and deliver same to the escrow agent. If either party fails to execute the release,
either party may make a written demand to the escrow agent for the earnest money. If
only one party makes written demand for the earnest money, escrow agent shall promptly
provide a copy of the demand to the other party. If escrow agent does not receive written
objection to the demand from the other party within 15 days, escrow agent may disburse
the earnest money to the party making demand reduced by the amount of unpaid
expenses incurred on behalf of the party receiving the earnest money and escrow agent
may pay the same to the creditors. If escrow agent complies with the provisions of this
paragraph, each party hereby releases escrow agent from all adverse claims related to the
disbursal of the earnest money.
D. DAMAGES: Any party who wrongfully fails or refuses to sign a release acceptable to the
escrow agent within 7 days of receipt of the request will be liable to the other party for
liquidated damages in an amount equal to the sum of: (i) three times the amount of the
earnest money; (ii) the earnest money; (iii) reasonable attorney's fees; and (iv) all costs of
suit.
E. NOTICES: Escrow agent's notices will be effective when sent in compliance with Paragraph
21. Notice of objection to the demand will be deemed effective upon receipt by escrow
agent.
19. REPRESENTATIONS: All covenants, representations and warranties in this contract survive
closing. If any representation of Seller in this contract is untrue on the Closing Date, Seller
will be in default. Unless expressly prohibited by written agreement, Seller may continue to
show the Property and receive, negotiate and accept back up offers.
20. FEDERAL TAX REQUIREMENTS: If Seller is a "foreign person,” as defined by applicable
law, or if Seller fails to deliver an affidavit to Buyer that Seller is not a "foreign person,” then
Buyer shall withhold from the sales proceeds an amount sufficient to comply with applicable
tax law and deliver the same to the Internal Revenue Service together with appropriate tax
forms. Internal Revenue Service regulations require filing written reports if currency in
excess of specified amounts is received in the transaction.
21. NOTICES: All notices from one party to the other must be in writing and are effective when
mailed to, hand-delivered at, or transmitted by facsimile or electronic transmission as
follows:
