under this Agreement (other than those that expressly survive termination); or (ii) waive the
uncured objections by proceeding to Closing and be deemed to approve Seller's title as shown in
the Commitment and the Title Exception Documents. If Seller does not timely receive notice of
Purchaser's election to terminate under clause (i) above, Purchaser is deemed to waive the uncured
objections and to approve title as shown in the Title Commitment and the Title Exception
Documents. All exceptions appearing in the Title Commitment to which Purchaser does not object
or which are deemed waived and accepted by Purchaser as set forth herein are herein referred to as
the "Permitted Exceptions"; provided, however, that as to those exceptions to which Purchaser does
object, if Seller modifies (or agrees to modify) any such exception to Purchaser's satisfaction, then
such exception, as so modified, shall be deemed included in the term "Permitted Exceptions".

and monetary liens (including liens for delinquent taxes, mechanics' liens and judgment liens)
affecting the Property and all indebtedness secured thereby (the "Existing Liens") to be fully
