PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of the
effective date set forth in Section __ of this agreement (the “Effective Date”), is made by and
between the BOARD OF EDUCATION OF BALL-CHATHAM COMMUNITY UNIT SCHOOL
DISTRICT NO. 5, an Illinois community unit school district (“Seller”), and VILLAGE OF
CHATHAM, an Illinois municipal corporation (“Purchaser”). Purchaser and Seller are each
referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”
1. BINDING AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes a binding
agreement. The Parties enter into this Agreement in accordance with Article VII, Section 10 of the
Illinois Constitution, the Illinois Intergovernmental Cooperation Act, 5 ILCS 220/1 et seq., the
Illinois School Code, 105 ILCS 5/5-22, and the Illinois Local Government Property Transfer Act,
50 ILCS 605/0.01 et seq.
2. CONVEYANCE OF PROPERTY. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, Seller hereby agrees to sell, and Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase (a) the real
property described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Real Property”); and (b) all improvements
located on the Real Property (the “Improvements”). The Real Property and the Improvements,
together with all rights and privileges appurtenant thereto, are collectively referred to herein as the
“Property.” The Property shall be conveyed to Purchaser on or before the Closing pursuant to a
special warranty deed (the “Deed”). Seller shall also execute a bill of sale (the “Bill of Sale”)
assigning to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all data, documents and
information regarding the Property that are now or at Closing in the possession or control of Seller
as well as any personal property (the “Plans and Materials”). Purchaser and Seller shall execute
all other transfer documents as required by applicable Law (as defined below). Closing shall occur
on a mutually agreeable date occurring on or before January 30, 2026 (“Closing”).
3. PURCHASE PRICE. The total purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) that
Purchaser agrees to pay for the Property is One Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars
($175,000.00). The Purchase Price shall be payable to Seller within sixty (60) months after
Closing (the “Payment Period”). If the Purchaser sells the Property for an amount over the
Purchase Price within the Payment Period, the Purchaser shall pay the Seller 50% of any amount
Purchaser receives over the Purchase price. As an example, if the Purchaser sells the Property to a
third Party for $205,000 the Purchaser shall pay the Seller $190,000 ($175,000 + 50% of $30,000,
the overage). If Purchaser does not pay Seller the Purchase Price and any required overage within
the Payment Period, title to the Property shall automatically revert to Seller (the “Reverter”).
Seller’s Reverter right shall not merge with the deed at closing and Seller’s reverter interest shall
be recorded.
4. INVESTIGATION; DOCUMENTATION.
a. Access to Real Property and Documentation. Purchaser shall, from
the Effective Date until Closing (or earlier termination of this Agreement), have the right to
reasonable access to the Real Property and the Improvements at any time and from time to time in
order to make inspections, investigations and tests, including but not limited to, to surveys,
engineering studies, soil tests and environmental assessments. Purchaser shall repair or restore
3447709.1
Page 7 of 35
any damage or disturbance to the Property caused by its acts or the acts of its agents
representatives, designees or invitees and hereby indemnifies and agrees to defend and hold
harmless Seller for, from and against any and all damages, losses, costs, expenses (including, but
not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liability arising from any such acts. Before
Purchaser enters upon the Property, Purchaser shall secure commercially reasonable liability
insurance covering any such damage or disturbance and all such damages, losses, costs and
expenses.
b. No later than Ten (10) business days following the Effective Date,
Seller shall provide to Purchaser, for its review, the following information to the extent it is in
Seller’s possession: information related to the age of the building, copies of all title policies and
reports, maintenance reports, information related to equipment condition, warranties related to the
Property, surveys, site plans, leases, permits and environmental site assessments(which may be
delivered via access to a data room or drop box site).
5. DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD.
a. Purchaser’s obligation to consummate the purchase of the Property
and the other assets contemplated hereby is subject to Purchaser’s determining, in its sole and
absolute discretion, during the period from the Effective Date through Sixty (60) days thereafter
(the “Due Diligence Period”) that the Property satisfies Purchaser’s purchase criteria. If before
the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, as same may be extended, Purchaser gives Seller
notice that Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall be terminated,
whereupon the parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement except as
provided herein.
b. In the event that Purchaser has not completed its due diligence of
the Property before the expiration of the Sixty (60) day Due Diligence Period, Purchaser has the
option to extend the Due Diligence Period by an additional Thirty (30) days upon Purchaser
providing notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the Sixty (60) day Due Diligence Period.
6. RESERVED.
7. TITLE. Purchaser’s obligation to purchase the Property, to pay the
Purchase Price therefor, and otherwise to close with respect thereto is subject to the title company
being committed at Closing to issue to Purchaser, as the insured, the title company’s customary
form of ALTA extended coverage owner’s policy of title insurance (the “Title Policy”) in the
amount of the Purchase Price, subject to only such matters as are not objected to or with respect to
which the objection is waived as set forth below (collectively, the “Permitted Exceptions”).
Within fourteen (14) business days from the Effective Date, the Seller shall provide to Purchaser
a commitment for title insurance for the Property and all underlying documents referenced therein.
If Purchaser has an objection to items disclosed in such title commitment or any survey, Purchaser
shall make all written objections to Seller on or before thirty (30) days before the expiration of the
Due Diligence Period. Seller shall have fifteen (15) days after the date such objections are made
to cure the same. If the objections are not cured within such time period (Seller having no
obligation to cure same), Purchaser may (a) terminate this Agreement; or (b) waive the uncured
objections (which waived matters shall then be deemed Permitted Exceptions) and close the
2
3447709.1
Page 8 of 35
transaction. If Purchaser has an objection to any new items disclosed on an updated commitment
that were not previously disclosed on the commitment or the Survey provided for herein, Purchaser
shall make any and all written objections to Seller within ten (10) days after receipt of the updated
commitment and the above process shall be repeated.

are necessary.
9. AS-IS SALE. Except as set forth in Section 10, Purchaser shall purchase the
property at closing in “as is, where is” condition, with all faults and with any and all defects. Seller

with respect to any portion of the Property. Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that Seller and its board members, officers, employees, agents, members,

§ 111.30 LOCATION RESTRICTIONS.
(A) No license shall be issued for the sale or retail of any alcoholic liquor within 100
feet of any church, school, hospital, home for the aged or indigent persons, or for
veterans, their wives or children, or any military or naval station; provided that this
prohibition shall not apply to hotels offering restaurant service, banquet halls, regularly
organized clubs, or restaurants or other places where the sale of alcoholic liquors is not
the principal business carried on, if such place of business or use so exempted is
established for such purposes prior to the establishment of any such church, school,
home for the aged or indigent persons, or for veterans, their wives or children, or any
military or naval station, nor to the renewal of a license for the sale at retail of alcoholic
liquor on premises within 100 feet since of any church or school, where such church or
school has been established within such 100 feet since the issuance of the original
license. In the case of a church, the distance of 100 feet shall be measured to the nearest
part of any building used for worship services or educational programs and not to property
boundaries.
(B) Nothing in this section shall prohibit the issuance of a license to a church or private
school to sell at retail alcoholic liquor, if any such sales are limited to period when groups
are assembled on the premises solely for the promotion of some common object other
than sale or consumption of alcoholic liquor.
(C) No such license shall be issued to any person for the sale of any alcoholic liquor
at any store or other place of business where the majority of customers are minors of
school age, or where the principal business transacted consists of school books, school
supplies, food, lunches or drinks for such minors.
Page 21 of 35
(D) No license, except as permitted for Class P license holders, shall allow the selling
or disposition of beer, wine, or any other alcoholic liquor through a drive-up window.
(E) A license issued hereunder shall permit the sale of alcoholic liquor only in the
premises described in the application and license. Such location may be changed only
when and upon the written permit to make such change shall be issued by the Local
Commissioner. No change of location shall be permitted unless the proposed new
location is in compliance with the provisions and regulations of this chapter.
(F) The liquor commissioner is authorized to issue a license for the sale or retail of
alcoholic liquor within 100 feet of any church, school, hospital, home for the aged or
indigent persons, or for veterans, their wives or children, or any military or naval station,
provided the liquor commissioner has determined that the premises described in the
application and license are to be primarily used for a hotel offering restaurant service, a
banquet hall, a regularly organized club, or a restaurant, and provided that the sale of
alcohol was previously permitted under a Class B, Class CR, Class R-1, Class R-2, or
Class SE license at the premises described in the license within the preceding ten (10)
years.
Section 3. Severability. In the event a court of competent jurisdiction finds this Ordinance
or any provision hereof to be invalid or unenforceable as applied, such finding shall not affect the
validity of the remaining provisions of this Ordinance and the application thereof to the greatest
extent permitted by law.
Section 4. Repeal and Savings Clause. All Ordinances or parts of Ordinances in conflict
herewith are hereby repealed; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall affect any
rights, actions, or causes of action which shall have accrued to the Village of Chatham prior to the
effective date of this ordinance.
Section 5. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after
its passage, approval and publication in pamphlet form as provided by law.
