The law limits 264 circumstances where normal agricultural operations may be subject to nuisance lawsuits or restrictive ordinances. 265 b. Clean and Green Program: Properties enrolled in the Clean and Green Program receive preferential property tax assess266 ment. Buyer and Seller have been advised of the need to contact the County Tax Assessment Office before the execution 267 of this Agreement to determine the property tax implications that will or may result from the sale of the Property, or that 268 may result in the future as a result of any change in use of the Property or the land from which it is being separated. 269 c. Open Space Act: This Act enables counties to enter into covenants with owners of land designated as farm, forest, water 270 supply, or open space land on an adopted municipal, county or regional plan for the purpose of preserving the land as open 271 space. A covenant between the owner and county is binding upon any Buyer of the Property during the period of time that 272 the covenant is in effect (5 or 10 years). Covenants automatically renew at the end of the covenant period unless specific 273 termination notice procedures are followed. Buyer has been advised of the need to determine the restrictions that will apply 274 from the sale of the Property to Buyer and the property tax implications that will or may result from a change in use of the 275 Property, or any portion of it.

FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN REAL PROPERTY TAX ACT OF 1980 (FIRPTA) (1-17) 666 The disposition of a U.S. real property interest by a foreign person (the transferor) is subject to the Foreign Investment in Real Property 667 Tax Act of 1980 (FIRPTA) income tax withholding.

This includes but is not limited to a sale or exchange, liquidation, redemption, gift, transfers, etc. Persons pur669 chasing U.S. real property interests (transferee) from foreign persons, certain purchasers’ agents, and settlement officers are required 670 to withhold up to 15 percent of the amount realized (special rules for foreign corporations). Withholding is intended to ensure U.S. 671 taxation of gains realized on disposition of such interests. The transferee/Buyer is the withholding agent. If you are the transferee/ 672 Buyer you must find out if the transferor is a foreign person as defined by the Act. If the transferor is a foreign person and you fail to 673 withhold, you may be held liable for the tax. 674 24.

Broker can only release the deposit monies: 700 1. If this Agreement is terminated prior to settlement and there is no dispute over entitlement to the deposit monies.

If Broker has received verifiable written notice of litigation or mediation prior to the receipt of 713 Buyer’s request for distribution, Broker will continue to hold the deposit monies until receipt of a written distribution agreement 714 between Buyer and Seller or a final court order. Buyer and Seller are advised to initiate litigation or mediation for any portion of 715 the deposit monies prior to any distribution made by Broker pursuant to this paragraph.

MEDIATION (7-20) 736 Buyer and Seller will submit all disputes or claims that arise from this Agreement, including disputes and claims over deposit monies, 737 to mediation.
