6. Recognition Plaque
As a material part of the consideration for this Agreement, and in recognition of the Cardoza Family's longstanding positive impact on the community of Manteca for over fifty (50) years, the City agrees to install and maintain, at its sole cost, a permanent plaque on the exterior or publicly accessible interior of the Building. The plaque shall state the City's appreciation and recognition of the Cardoza Family and their contributions to the community. The design, size, and placement of the plaque shall be subject to the City's reasonable discretion; provided, however, that the content of the plaque shall substantially include reference to (i) the Cardoza Family by name and (ii) their positive impact on the community of Manteca. The City further agrees that the plaque shall remain in place for so long as the Building is owned or operated by the City, unless removal is required by law, public safety, or substantial redevelopment of the Building, in which event the City shall endeavor to relocate the plaque, or a substantially similar replacement plaque, to an appropriate location as close as practicable.

7. Escrow and Closing
A. Escrow: Placer Title shall be the title company used for all title purposes, including issuance of the title policy, escrow, and related services. If no escrow is used, closing shall occur upon recordation of the Grant Deed
