CLOSING AGREEMENT AND ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS
For Purchase and Sale Transaction
The undersigned buyer and seller (referred to herein as "the parties") hereby designate and
appoint Rainier Title, LLC. (referred to herein as "the closing agent") to act as their closing and escrow
agent according to the following agreements and instructions.
IT IS AGREED, AND THE CLOSING AGENT IS INSTRUCTED, AS FOLLOWS:
Terms of Sale. The terms and conditions of the transaction which is the subject of these
instructions (referred to herein as "the transaction") are set forth in the parties' Purchase and Sale
Agreement, Earnest Money Agreement, or other written agreement, and any attachments, amendments
or addenda to that agreement (referred to herein as "the parties' agreement"), which is made a part of
these instructions by this reference. If the Purchase and Sale Agreement provides that a commission is
due at closing, the Company will require payment of the commission according to the broker's demand,
which will be furnished at the closing agent's request. Any changes to the parties' agreement will be
made a part of these instructions, without further reference, when signed by the parties and delivered to
the closing agent. These instructions are not intended to amend, modify or supersede the terms and
conditions of the parties' agreement and if there is any conflict or inconsistency between these
instructions and the parties' agreement, the terms and conditions of the parties' agreement shall control.
Description of Real Property. The real property which is the subject of the transaction (referred
to herein as "the property") is identified in the parties' agreement. The documents required to close the
transaction must contain the "legal description" of the property. If the parties' agreement does not yet
contain the correct legal description, the parties or the real estate agent should obtain an addendum
setting forth the legal description as soon as possible and deliver it to the closing agent.
Closing Date. Unless otherwise described in the parties' agreement, the closing date shall be
considered to be the date on which the legal documents are recorded and the funds are available for
disbursement. Recording Delays: Occasionally, the county recording office is not able to record the deeds
and all other documents required to satisfy the conditions for Closing (the "Closing Documents") the day
that the documents are submitted for recording_ Modification of Closing Definition: In the event that,
through no fault of the parties, the county recording office fails to record the Closing Documents the day
that the documents are submitted for recording, the parties agree to the following revised definition of
"Closing": Closing is the date on which (i) the Closing Documents are submitted to the county for
recording; (ii) the sale proceeds are available to Seller; (iii) the Closing Agent has received the irrevocable
commitment of the Title Insurance Company to deliver all title policies; and (iv) the Closing Agent is able
to satisfy any other conditions required by instructions of any other party required for Closing.
Documents. The closing agent is instructed to select, prepare, complete, correct, receive, hold,
record and deliver documents as necessary to close the transaction. The closing agent may request that
certain documents be prepared or obtained by the parties or their attorneys, in which case the parties
shall deliver the requested documents to the closing agent before the closing date. Execution of any
document will be considered approval of its form and content by each party signing such document.
Page 1 of 7
Deposits and Disbursements of Funds. Before the closing date, each party shall deposit with
the closing agent all funds required to be paid by such party to close the transaction, less any earnest
money previously deposited with the real estate agent. The closing agent is authorized, but not required,
to consider a lending institution's written commitment to deposit funds as the equivalent of a deposit of
such funds, if all conditions of the commitment will be met on or before the closing date. All funds
deposited with the closing agent shall be deposited in an escrow trust account with a bank doing business
in the State of Washington.
The parties hereby acknowledge that except as provided by Supreme Court Admission to
Practice Rule 12.1 and 12.1 (h) adopted in 1995, the money deposited with closing agent by them in
connection with this escrow will be further deposited into a non -interest bearing account with a financial
institution ("the funds depository") whose deposits are covered by FDIC insurance. The parties further
acknowledge that in calculating the amount of available insurance, the FDIC will consolidate moneys
deposited under this escrow with all other funds of the undersigned which are on deposit with the funds
depository. The parties do therefore release closing agent from any liability and assume all responsibility
for any loss to themselves which may result from a lack of FDIC insurance in excess of $250,000.00. The
parties acknowledge that the Closing Agent may receive incidental benefits from the financial institution
based on the existence of its escrow trust account deposits.
The closing agent shall not be required to disburse any funds deposited by check or draft until it
has been advised by its bank that such check or draft has been honored. RCW 18.44.070 provides that
an escrow agent shall not make disbursements until the next business day after the business day on
which the funds are deposited unless the deposit is made in cash, by interbank electronic wire transfer, or
in a form that permits conversion of the deposit to cash on the same day the deposit is made. All
disbursements shall be made by the closing agent's check or, if the payee so instructs in writing, by
electronic wire transfer.
Funds will be disbursed as quickly as possible following closing. In many instances disbursement
will occur on the next business day. International wire transfers may not be disbursed until the second
business day following closing. Escrow will determine the most expedient and secure method to remit
loan payoff funds. Due to growing concerns of wire fraud, payoff funds may be remitted by overnighting a
check rather than via wire transfer. Accounts may not show paid in full until a few days after closing.
Rainier Title will not be responsible for accrual of interest, late fees, or other charges for which you are
responsible in the interim.
Settlement Statement. The closing agent is instructed to prepare a preliminary, estimated
settlement statement showing all funds deposited for the account of each of the parties and the proposed
disbursements from such funds. No funds shall be disbursed until the parties have examined and
approved the settlement statement. Some items may be estimated, and the final amount of each
estimated item will be adjusted to the exact amount required to be paid at the time of disbursement. The
settlement statement will be subject to audit and any errors or omissions may be corrected at any time. If
any monetary error is found, the amount will be immediately paid by the party liable for such payment to
the party entitled to receive it.
Pro -rations. Adjustments or pro -rations of real estate taxes, and other charges if any, which
appear on the Title Report, shall be made on the basis of a 365 day year, unless the closing agent is
otherwise instructed in writing.
Title Insurance. The closing agent shall order or obtain copies and forward to the parties as
applicable, a Preliminary Commitment for the Title Insurance on the property (referred to herein as "the
title report"), together with copies of the exceptions noted thereon. The parties shall be responsible to
review these items for accuracy, a verification of the legal description, and to determine their acceptability
for purposes of closing.
Verification of Existing Encumbrances. The closing agent is permitted to request a written
statement from the holder of each existing encumbrance on the property, verifying its status, terms,
balance owing and, if it will not be removed at closing, the requirements that must be met to obtain a
waiver of any due -on -sale provision. The closing agent is authorized to rely upon such written statements
in the performance of its duties, without liability or responsibility for their accuracy or completeness. The
Closing Agent may further rely upon any verbal update to a written payoff statement provided by an
existing lender and the borrower agrees to indemnify Closing Agent for payoff amounts which may be
regarded as incomplete or inaccurate by the lender upon receipt.
Page 2 of 7
Disclosure of Information to Third Parties. The closing agent is authorized to furnish, upon
request, copies of any closing documents, agreements or instructions concerning the transaction to the
parties' designated attorneys, and to their real estate agent, the designated lender, loan broker and title
insurance company involved in the transaction.
Records Retention. Unless otherwise prescribed by law, the closing agent may destroy after six
(6) years from the closing date hereof, these and records, agreements and instruments relating to the
closing of this transaction, including all documentation and accounting information, excluding however,
any and all loan documents.
Closing Agent's Fees and Expenses. The closing agent's fee is intended as compensation for
the usual closing services as set forth in these instructions. If additional services are requested or
required to comply with any change or addition to the parties' agreement or these instructions, or as a
result of any party's assignment of interest or delay in performance, the parties agree to pay a reasonable
additional fee for such services. The parties shall also reimburse the closing agent for any out-of-pocket
costs and expenses incurred by it under these instructions, including but not limited to excessive fax
costs, electronic wire transfer costs and courier fees.
Cancellation. These instructions may be canceled by a written agreement, signed by all of the
parties, and payment of the closing agent's fees, costs and expenses. Upon receipt of such agreement
and payment, the closing agent shall return any money or documents then held by it to the parties that
deposited the same, and shall have no further duties or responsibilities under these instructions.
Inability to Comply With Instructions. If the closing agent receives conflicting instructions or
determines, for any reason, that it cannot comply with these instructions by the date for closing specified
in the parties' agreement or in any written extension of that date, it shall notify the parties, request further
instructions, and in its discretion: (1) continue to perform its duties and close the transaction as soon as
possible after receiving further instructions, or (2) if no conflicting instructions have been received, return
any money or documents then held by it to the parties that deposited the same, less any fees and
expenses chargeable to such party, or (3) commence a court action, deposit the money and documents
held by it into the registry of the court, and ask the court to determine the rights of the parties. When the
money and documents have been returned to the parties or deposited into the registry of the court, the
closing agent shall have no further duties or responsibilities under these instructions.
Disputes. Should any dispute arise between the parties, or any of them, and/or any other party,
concerning the property or funds involved in the transaction, the closing agent may, at its sole discretion,
hold all documents and funds in their existing status pending resolution of the dispute, or join or
commence a court action, deposit the money and documents held by it with the court, and ask the court
to determine the rights of the parties. Upon depositing said funds and documents with the court, the
closing agent shall have no further duties or responsibilities under these instructions. The parties jointly
and severally agree to pay the closing agent's costs, expenses and reasonable attorney's fees incurred in
any lawsuit arising out of or in connection with the transaction or these instructions, whether such lawsuit
is instituted by the closing agent, the parties, or any other person.
Notices. Any notice, declaration or request made under these instructions shall be in writing,
signed by the party giving such notice or making such declaration or request, and personally delivered or
mailed to the closing agent and other parties.
Amendments. Any amendment, addition or supplement to these instructions must be in writing,
signed by the appropriate parties and delivered to the closing agent.
Counterparts. These instructions may be executed in one or more counterparts with like effect
as if all signatures appeared on one copy.
MATTERS TO BE COMPLETED BY THE BUYER AND SELLER
IMPORTANT -READ CAREFULLY
The following items must be completed by the parties, outside of escrow, and are not part
of the closing agents' duties under these instructions.
Page 3 of 7
Inspection and Approval of the Property. Any required inspections or approvals of the
property or of improvements, additions or repairs to the property will be arranged and completed by the
parties, outside of escrow. The closing agent shall have no liability with respect to the physical condition
of the property, or any buildings, improvements, plumbing, heating, cooling, electrical, septic or other
systems on the property, and no responsibility to inspect the property, or to otherwise determine its
physical condition, or to determine whether any required improvements, additions or repairs have been
satisfactorily completed.
Undisclosed Sewer Charges. Buyer and seller acknowledge that the subject property may be
located within one of those participating cities or sewer districts which have entered into a special
contractual relationship with the Metro Council which may allow Metro to levy a fee or charge an
additional service fee. Buyer and Seller agree that any adjustment shall be handled outside of closing
and Escrow Closer shall be held harmless with respect to any such "capacity charge".
Real Estate Disclosure. A Residential Real Estate Sales Disclosure may be required to be
furnished by the seller to the buyer before the closing of the sale of subject property in accordance with
Title 64 RCW, enacted 1994 and as amended. Escrow Closer has not advised either party as to the
scope of such disclosure or the parties' rights or duties thereunder, but has advised both parties to review
these matters with their real estate agent or an attorney of their choice. Escrow Closer is hereby assured
by the buyer that any disclosure required, including any disclosure relative to Farm and Timber, Asbestos
or Lead Base Paint, has been received and the appropriate time has expired and Escrow Closer has no
duty to independently confirm such receipt and time expiration by buyer.
Personal Property. Any required inspections, approvals or transfers of possession of any
owned or leased fixtures, equipment or other items of personal property included in the transaction, and
payment of any personal property, sales or use taxes, will be completed by the parties outside of escrow.
Unless otherwise instructed in writing, the closing agent shall have no responsibility with respect to such
personal property and shall not be required to determine the status or condition of the title to,
encumbrances upon, ownership, or physical condition of such personal property, nor to calculate, pro-
rate, collect, prepare returns for or pay any personal property tax, sales tax or use tax arising from the
transaction.
Utilities. If the Purchase and Sale Agreement lists the names and addresses of public utilities
which could claim a lien, the Closing Agent shall request statements for payment of final or estimated
billings and is instructed to pay the amounts demanded by such designated public utilities. In the event
such designated public utilities do not provide the payment information within the time allowances
prescribed by law, Closing Agent shall have no further responsibility to the parties for the payment of said
utilities, and shall not be required to pay them, and seller agrees to discharge said utilities outside of
escrow. All other orders, cancellations, transfers, payments and adjustment of accounts for installation or
service of water, sewer, garbage collection, electricity, gas, fuel oil, telephone, television cable and any

information to complete Form 1099-S is not provided by the seller.
Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act. If any seller is, or may be, a non-resident alien
or a foreign corporation, partnership, trust or estate for the purposes of United States income taxation, the
parties are advised to consult with their attorneys before the closing date to determine their
responsibilities and liabilities, if any, under the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (Section 1445
et seq. of the Internal Revenue Code). The closing agent is not required to verify the nationality or foreign
status of any of the sellers, or to withhold, report or pay any amounts due under such act, unless directed
by the parties in writing. However, the closing agent may request additional information or documentation
concerning sellers' foreign status, and the parties agree to cooperate by providing such information and
documentation.
Approvals and Permits. The parties are advised to consult with their attorneys to determine
whether any building, zoning, subdivision, septic system, or other construction or land use permits or
approvals will be required, either before or after the closing date. The closing agent shall have no
responsibility with respect to any such permit or approval, and shall have no liability arising from the
failure of any party to obtain, or from the refusal of any governmental authority to grant, any such permit
or approval.
Condominiums and Common Interest Communities: A seller may be required to deliver a
resale certificate or public offering statement to the buyer of a condominium unit prior to closing in
accordance with RCW Chapter 64.34, known as the Condominium Act.

property within certain common interest communities prior to closing in accordance with Senate Bill 6175,
known as the Washington Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act.
Closing Agent cannot advise either party as to the scope of such requirements or the parties'
rights or duties thereunder, but hereby advises both parties to review these matters with an attorney of
their choice. Closing Agent has no duty to independently confirm such requirements, if applicable, will be
or has been met prior to closing.
Compliance with Certain Laws. The parties are advised to consult with their attorneys to
determine their rights and responsibilities, if any, under the Consumer Protection Act, Truth -in -Lending
Act or other similar laws. The Closing Agent shall have no responsibility for the parties' compliance, nor
any liability arising from the failure of any party to comply, with any such law.

that a telephone number for the Grantor and Grantee are included on the Real Estate Excise Tax
Affidavit. This document gets recorded with the county auditor's office and the information contained
within will become public record. The parties are encouraged to review the Real Estate Excise Tax

include an alternative telephone number.

Instructions to Close. The closing agent is instructed to perform its customary closing duties under these

Important Notice to New Property Owners
PROPERTY TAXES
Our experience has shown that many tax delinquencies occur during the first year of property ownership. As a new
property owner, you should be aware of the manner in which real property taxes are currently billed and paid. Property
taxes in all Washington counties may be paid in two equal installments. The first installment is due on April 30th and pays
for the period of January 1st through June 30t". The second installment is due October 31st and pays for the period from
July 1st through December 31s'. Taxes which become delinquent shall incur interest and penalty charges.
Your property tax account number is: 212205-9037-02, 212205-9037-02, 212205-9098-08
Your first tax payment will be due:
Pursuant to the terms of your transaction:
Unless your lender will collect reserves with your monthly payment and will pay taxes from your reserve account, you will
be responsible for the payment of your taxes directly to the county when due.
PLEASE NOTE - YOU MUST CONTACT THE TREASURER LISTED BELOW TO OBTAIN
CURRENT TAX STATEMENTS AS THE COUNTY DOES NOT TRACK CHANGE IN OWNERSHIP
If your lender is collecting reserves, we suggest you call the county around the end of June and the end of December to
confirm that your lender did in fact make payment to the county.
The Office of Finance is responsible for the collection of property taxes. If you have any questions regarding real property
taxes or need a statement, please contact the appropriate Treasurer's office for the county in which your property is
located.

UTILITY DISBURSEMENT AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is made between Susan Marie Ruth, Personal Representative of The Estate of William E. Ruth,
(Seller), City of Kent, a Washington Municipal Corporation, (Buyer) and Rainier Title (Closing Agent) concerning
Escrow File Number 805377RT, related to the following street address: 12410 SE 248th Street, Kent, WA 98030.
WHEREAS, Washington law requires Escrow Agent to pay certain utilities that can become a lien through the date
of closing if the Buyer requests. If Buyer does not waive this requirement, the closing may not occur until Seller
provides the required information and the designated utilities provide statements to Escrow Agent.
NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree and instruct Closing Agent as follows:
❑ 1. If checked, the parties direct Closing Agent to disburse the closing funds necessary to pay utilities that
have lien rights and that are designated by Seller_
a. Pursuant to statute, the Seller must provide the names, addresses and account numbers of all utilities
that can become a lien upon the land if not paid. Closing Agent is not responsible to determine the
appropriate utilities to be paid. Seller acknowledges that prior to closing, Seller has provided a list of utilities
to be paid.
b. The Closing Agent may pay either the final statement of the utility company or the estimate of the utility
company that is binding to the utility with respect to its lien rights against the Buyer. Seller understands that
payment of the utility company's estimated statement allows the utility company to require further funds from
Seller if the final billing is higher, and the utility company is responsible to provide refund to the Seller directly
if the final billing is lower.
c. The Closing Agent may be required to withhold an estimated amount from funds due to the Seller in order
to pay the designated utilities. That withhold, if needed, will be disclosed on the Seller's settlement statement.
The funds shall be held in a non interest -bearing trust account until such time as the Closing Agent may
determine and pay the amount claimed due and refund the balance to the Seller. If the withheld funds are
insufficient, Seller agrees to deposit the additional amount within 7 days after notice.
d. If Seller did not designate one or more utilities that have a lien right against the owner of the property,
Seller remains liable to the Buyer to pay all utility charges due by the owner of the property through the date
of closing of the sale and will hold Closing Agent harmless from responsibility for the payment or for
administering any reimbursement due to Buyer.
® 2. If checked, the parties do not request Closing Agent to pay utilities. Buyer hereby waives the statutory
duty of Closing Agent to pay Seller's utilities.
a. Seller acknowledges the Seller's obligation at the time of sale to pay all utility charges that are due by the
owner of the land through the date of the closing. Seller agrees to satisfy any such liens or charges outside
of closing.
b. Seller remains liable to the Buyer to pay all utility charges due by the owner of the property through the
date of closing of the sale, and to promptly reimburse Buyer for any amount Buyer pays that became due
before the closing. Both parties hold Closing Agent harmless from responsibility for reimbursement to the
parties claimed to be due after the closing date.
Buyer and Seller understand and agree that Escrow does not handle the transferring of utilities. It is the
sole responsibility of the Buyer and Seller to ensure all utilities have been transferred at closing.
