Box 8181 <br /> Hillsborough,North Carolina 27278 <br /> VIA EMAIL DELIVERY <br /> RE: Engagement For Legal Services: Purchase of 509 Central Avenue Property <br /> Dear Ms. Tosco: <br /> We are pleased to represent Orange County in the acquisition of the above referenced property <br /> (the"Transaction"). If agreeable to the County,this letter establishes the terms of our engagement. <br /> Title Search&Title Insurance <br /> The property to be purchased in the Transaction is comprised of one parcel identified as having <br /> Orange County PIN 9864-59-7395 (the "Property"). In preparation for closing, we will perform a title <br /> search on the Property. The nature of that search may take on many one of two forms, depending upon <br /> whether or not the title has previously been insured. If the title has not been previously insured, a search <br /> of the public records for a period of time satisfactory to the title insurance company will be required. If <br /> the title has previously been insured, we can obtain coverage for the County by having the title examined <br /> from the effective date of that coverage to the present. The process of performing only a limited title <br /> search is what is known as "tacking". If we tack to an existing title insurance policy, the County will be <br /> relying on its policy of title insurance and not our having actually examined the public records for any <br /> matter affecting title prior to the date of the existing policy of title insurance to which we tacked. <br /> 1 <br />
