This is to certify that at the time of Closing of the Premises, the undersigned (“Builder/Seller”) shall
deposit an Escrow in the amount of Six Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($6,500) (“Escrow
Amount”) per unit to secure completion of the work required to obtain a Final Certificate of
Occupancy for the Premises. Builder/Seller hereby warrants and represents:
(i)
that the Escrow Amount is sufficient to complete the work required for a final certificate of
occupancy for the Premises and a proportionate share, based upon the total number of units in the
development, of any off-site improvements (drainage, curb, sidewalk, paving, catch/seepage basins,
etc.) to be completed;
(ii)
that Builder/Seller is responsible to cure all Building Department objections to qualify for a
final certificate of occupancy for the Premises; and,
(iii)
that at the time of Closing, Builder/Seller will inform the buyer of the Premises of (1) all
outstanding Building Department objections required to be cured to obtain a final certificate of
occupancy, and (2) the name and address of the holder of the Escrow Amount.
Builder/Seller certifies that the above information is true and correct and acknowledges that the
Department of Buildings is relying on these representations by issuing a temporary certificate of
occupancy for the Premises. Builder/Seller hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify the
Department of Buildings from any and all costs, claims and liability of any kind that may arise from
any source which in any way refers to, relies upon or is in any way connected with the
aforementioned statement.
