parcel of real property located at 8860 Upper 208th Street West, Lakeville, MN 55044 together

C. Permitted Exceptions as provided under Paragraph 10 of this Agreement.
4. RELOCATION BENEFITS. Seller is aware of Seller's rights and payments that Seller

acknowledges that Seller has been given the opportunity to seek and receive the advice of legal
counsel with respect to relocation, moving, reestablishment, and other costs, if any, that may be

Seller hereby acknowledges that the payment of the Purchase Price does not include a payment

117.521. Prior to and as a condition of Closing, Seller will be required to sign a relocation
waiver, the form of which is substantially the same as shown on the attached Exhibit B and the

not waive relocation benefits, this Agreement will be terminated and Seller will be free to retain
ownership of the Property or sell on the private market.
