9.4.3 If the Indemnification Claim involves a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall have the right (but not the obligation) to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, at its cost and expense, and shall use good faith efforts consistent with reasonably prudent business judgment to defend such Third Party Claim in a cost efficient manner, provided that (i) the counsel for the Indemnitor who shall conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee (unless selected by Indemnitor’s insurance company), (ii) the Indemnitee, at its cost and expense, may participate in, but shall not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim, and (iii) the Indemnitor shall not enter into any writing stating any admission of liability or culpability or any settlement or other agreement which requires any performance by the Indemnitee, other than the payment of money which shall be paid by the Indemnitor. Indemnitor will not be obligated hereunder for indemnifying the Indemnitee with respect to any settlement agreement for any Indemnification Claim which Indemnitee enters into without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Indemnitor’s sole discretion. If the Indemnitor elects not to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall have the right to retain the defense of such Third Party Claim and shall use good faith efforts consistent with prudent business judgment to defend such Third Party Claim in a cost efficient manner.

9.4.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall have no right to indemnification against the Indemnitor for any Indemnification Claim which (i) is a Party Indemnification Claim disputed by Indemnitor until such time as such dispute is resolved by a court order or order by an applicable authority with competent jurisdiction, or other means as the parties otherwise may agree in writing, or (ii) which involves a Third Party Claim until such time as such Third Party Claim is concluded, including any appeals with respect thereto.

9.5 Exclusive Remedy for Indemnification Loss. Except for claims based on fraud or intentional misconduct, the indemnification provisions in this Article 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of any Indemnitee with respect to any claim for Indemnification Loss arising from or in connection with this Agreement.

9.6 Survival. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, all representations, warranties, covenants, liabilities, and obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed (i) if the Closing occurs, to

not merge into the transfer documents and instead to survive the Closing for the applicable Survival Period, or (ii) if this Agreement is terminated, not to survive such termination. This Article 9 and all other rights and obligations of defense and indemnification as expressly set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for the applicable Survival Period and such indemnification obligations shall in no way merge with the delivery of any document required to be delivered in connection with the Closing.

ARTICLE 11

PURCHASE PRICE PRORATIONS

Except as provided below or in the definition of Pre-Closing Taxes, which shall govern Taxes, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted as of 11:59 P.M. Houston, Texas time on the day preceding the Closing Date (the “Cut-off Time”), based upon a 365 day year, and the net amount of any such adjustment amount, as applicable, shall be added to (if such net amount is in Seller’s favor) or deducted from (if such net amount is in Purchaser’s favor) the Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be adjusted as set forth in accordance with the provisions of this Article 11.

11.1 Real Property Taxes and Assessments. Real Property taxes shall be adjusted and prorated on the basis of the periods of Seller’s ownership of the Owner Parties. If the Closing shall occur before the tax rate or assessed valuation is fixed for the Real Property, the apportionment of Real Property taxes shall be upon the basis of the tax rate for the preceding year applied to the most recently applicable assessed valuation of the Real Property. In the event that the Real Property or any part thereof shall be or shall have been affected by an assessment or assessments, whether or not the same become payable in annual installments, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted downward in an amount equal to any unpaid installments due prior to Closing. The parties shall also adjust and prorate the Business Improvements District Tax, if any, at Closing. Any adjustment amount resulting from this Section 11.1 shall be multiplied by ninety-nine percent (99%).

11.2 Tax Refunds. All refunds of Taxes relating to periods ending on or before the Closing Date (for this purpose, any refund for periods beginning before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date shall be taken into account based on the definition of Pre-Closing Taxes) shall be paid by (or cause to be paid by) Purchaser to Seller promptly upon receipt of this refund, provided that any refunds of income Taxes, to the extent such refunds are attributable to a “carry-back” of a loss that arises after the Closing Date, shall belong to Purchaser and shall not be paid to Seller. For purposes of this Section 11.2, receipt of refunds relating to the periods as described above include cash refunds as well as Tax refunds which are actually credited or applied for the benefit of any of the Owner Parties.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 11.2, any Tax refund relating to periods beginning prior to the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date shall not be paid by (or caused to be paid by) Purchaser to Seller to the extent that a net positive adjustment has already been made to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 11.3 with respect to such Tax refund or such refund is reflected as an asset in the most recent Seller Financial Statements. This Section 11.2 shall survive the Closing for the Survival Period.

11.3 Taxes. All Taxes of any of the Owner Parties shall be calculated with respect to the period beginning January 1, of the year in which the Closing occurs, and ending as of the close of the Closing Date (consistent with the definition of Pre-closing Taxes). The amount of any unpaid Taxes (after taking into account all payments of Taxes with respect thereto made on or before the Closing Date) of any of the Owner Parties with respect to all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date, shall be a negative adjustment to the Purchase Price. The provisions of this Section 11.3 shall survive the Closing for the Survival Period.

11.4 Current Assets.

11.4.1 Cash. Purchaser and Seller agree that a minimum of Four Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars (U.S. $400,000.00) of “Cash” (as such term is used in the Owner Financial Statements) shall be held by Owner and remain the property of Owner from and after closing, with no correlating amount being credited to Seller, it being agreed that such amount has already been taken into account in the Purchase Price. All other “Cash” (as such term is used in the Owner Financial Statements) of Owner as of the Cut-Off Time in excess of Four Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars (U.S. $400,000.00) (i) shall remain the property of Owner from and after Closing, and (ii) shall be credited to Seller as an upward adjustment to the Purchase Price. All such “Cash” shall be counted as of the Cut-off Time in the presence of Seller’s and Purchaser’s representatives.

11.4.2 Accounts Receivable and Prepaid Expenses. All “Accounts Receivable” and “Prepaid Expenses” (as such terms are used in the Owner Financial Statements) of Owner as of the Cut-Off Time (i) shall remain the property of Owner from and after Closing, and (ii) shall be credited to Seller as an upward adjustment to the Purchase Price.

11.5 Current Liabilities. All “Accounts Payable”, “Advance Deposit Liability”, “Sales Taxes Payable”, “Payroll Taxes Payable”, “Payroll Deductions Payable”, “Accrued Payroll Expenses”, “Accrued Other Expenses” and “Accrued Property Taxes” (as such terms are used in the Owner Financial Statements) of Owner as of the Cut-Off Time (i) shall remain the liabilities of Owner from and after Closing, and (ii) shall be credited to Purchaser as an downward adjustment to the Purchase Price. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that the adjustments made pursuant to this Section 11.5 are intended to address the proration of all Employee Accruals, all of which shall remain liabilities of Owner from and after Closing and shall be credited to Purchaser as a downward adjustment to the Purchase Price.

11.6 Seller Sales Tax Liability Amount. All retail sales tax liability which may become due as a result of the pending retail sales tax audit appeal shall remain the liability of Owner from and after Closing, and the Seller Sales Tax Liability Amount shall be credited to Purchaser as a downward adjustment to the Purchase Price. Upon completion of the pending retail sales tax audit appeal Purchaser shall promptly remit to Seller its pro rata share of any reduction or refund of the Seller Sales Tax Liability Amount.

11.7 Purchaser Franchise Tax Liability Amount. The Purchaser Franchise Tax Liability Amount shall be credited to Seller as an upward adjustment to the Purchase Price. Seller hereby transfers to Purchaser all rights that Seller may have in connection with obtaining a reimbursement of the Purchaser Franchise Tax Liability Amount, which represents penalties and interest assessed by the State of Texas against Seller. Seller agrees to reasonably assist Purchaser in pursuing such Persons for such reimbursement, which obligation shall survive Closing.

11.8 Intentionally omitted.

11.9 Mechanism for Adjustments. Seller shall make such inventories, examinations, and audits, and of the books and records, as the parties may reasonably deem necessary, and as otherwise permitted under the Management Agreement, to make the adjustments and prorations required under this Agreement. Purchaser or its designated representative shall be allowed to be present at such inventories, examinations, and audits. Based upon such inventories, examinations, and audits, Seller and Purchaser shall agree upon an initial closing statement on the Closing Date (the “Initial Closing Statement”). The Initial Closing Statement shall contain Seller’s best estimate of the amounts of the items required to be prorated and adjusted pursuant to this Agreement between the parties as of the Closing Date and, with respect to the adjustments set forth in Sections 11.3, 11.4, 11.5, 11.6 and 11.7 shall be based upon the Owner Financial Statements dated as of October 31, 2013 to the extent necessary. The Initial Closing Statement shall be the basis upon which the adjustments provided for under this Agreement shall be made at Closing. Within thirty (30) days following the Closing, Purchaser and Seller, with the assistance of Manager, shall prepare and agree upon a revised closing statement (the “Final Closing Statement”) which shall reflect the adjustment amounts as of the Cut-off Time (including with respect to Sections 11.3, 11.4, 11.5, 11.6 and 11.7). Any adjustments to the Initial Closing Statement which are required shall be made by Purchaser and Seller, with due diligence and cooperation, by prompt cash payment to the party entitled to a credit as a result of such adjustments. To the extent any items in the Final Closing Statement are disputed, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disputed items. To the extent such disputed items are not resolved within ninety (90) days following the Closing, then the parties shall submit such dispute to a neutral, third-party nationally recognized accounting firm selected jointly by Seller and Purchaser (the “Outside Accountant”), and the determination of the Outside Accountant which shall be made within sixty (60) days after submittal by the parties of the disputed items shall be conclusive. The non-prevailing party with respect to any disputed item shall be responsible for the fees of the Outside Accountant in connection therewith. In the event that the parties prevail on one or more disputed items, but do not prevail on one or more other disputed items, respectively, the payment of the Outside Accountant’s fees shall be prorated between the parties based upon the total Dollar amount of the disputed items resolved in favor of each party. Any errors in calculations to the foregoing adjustments shall be corrected as soon as practicable after the Closing provided, however, the provisions hereof shall survive the Closing for not longer than one hundred eighty (180) days following the Closing, except with respect to the proration of taxes and assessments pursuant to Sections 11.1, 11.2, and 11.3 above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any adjustments or corrections to the Purchase Price shall be made in immediately available U.S. Dollars.
