8665334v.12

and subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(18) Such other documents reasonably requested by Purchaser pertaining to the Property or the operations of the Hotel.

In the event Seller fails to make available any of the Submission Matters as provided above or fails to provide any of the items specified in Section 2.4(e) below as provided therein, Purchaser shall give Seller notice thereof so that Seller shall have an opportunity to cure such failure by providing such items. In the event Seller does not provide such Submission Matters or items specified in Section 2.4(e) prior to the expiration of the Study Period, Purchaser’s sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration of the Study Period in which case the entire Deposit shall be delivered to Seller.

(c) If for any reason whatsoever Purchaser does not purchase the Property, Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller all copies of all the Submission Matters and any other

materials delivered to Purchaser or Purchaser Parties; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be obligated to deliver to Seller any materials of a proprietary nature (such as, for the purposes of example only, any financial forecasts or market repositioning plans) prepared for Purchaser or Purchaser Parties in connection with the Property. Seller shall have the option to buy from Purchaser at cost all third-party reports prepared by or for Purchaser or Purchaser Parties with respect to the Property, and Seller acknowledges that any such materials delivered to Seller pursuant to this sentence shall be without warranty or representation whatsoever other than that such materials have been fully paid for and may be delivered to Seller.

Purchaser understands and agrees that any on-site inspections of the Property shall occur at reasonable times agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser after not less than two (2) calendar days prior written notice to Seller and shall be conducted so as not to interfere unreasonably with the operation of the Property and the use of the Property by the tenants and the guests of the Hotel. Seller, Operating Lessee and/or Manager shall have the right to have a representative present during any such inspections. If Purchaser desires to do any invasive testing at the Property, Purchaser shall do so only after notifying Seller and obtaining Seller’s prior written consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and may be subject to reasonable terms and conditions as may be proposed by Seller. Purchaser shall not permit any liens to attach to the Property by reason of such inspections. Purchaser shall (i) restore the Property, at its own expense, to substantially the same condition which existed prior to any inspections or other activities of Purchaser thereon; and (ii) be responsible for and pay any and all liens by contractors, subcontractors, materialmen, or laborers performing the inspections or any other work for Purchaser or Purchaser Parties on or related to the Property.

Purchaser shall not solicit for employment any Hotel Employees except for employment at the Hotel in accordance with this Agreement if the transaction is consummated. The provisions of this Section 2.4(d) shall survive any termination of this Agreement and a closing of the transaction contemplated hereby.

(e) Seller has ordered from the Title Company for delivery to Purchaser and Seller, a title insurance commitment issued by the Title Company covering the Real Property, binding the Title Company to issue the Owner’s Title Policy together with legible copies (to the extent such

8665334v.12

legible copies are available) of all documents identified in such title insurance commitment as exceptions to title (collectively, the “Title Commitment”), with respect to the state of title to the Property. Within five (5) days following its receipt of the Survey and the Title Commitment, Purchaser shall notify Seller of any matters shown on such Survey or identified in the Title Commitment that Purchaser is unwilling to accept (collectively, “Purchaser’s Objections”). If any of Purchaser’s Objections consist of Monetary Title Encumbrances, then, to that extent, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated to either (i) pay and discharge, (ii) bond against in a manner legally sufficient to cause to be released, or (iii) indemnify or escrow money with or otherwise cause the Title Company to insure over, such Monetary Title Encumbrances (individually and collectively, a Monetary Encumbrance Release”). For such purposes, Seller may use all or a portion of the Purchase Price to effectuate a Monetary Encumbrance Release with respect to any such Monetary Title Encumbrances at the Closing. Other than as specifically required in this Agreement, Seller shall not be obligated to incur any expenses or incur any liability to cure any Purchaser’s Objections. Seller may notify Purchaser within five (5) days after receipt of notice of Purchaser’s Objections (“Seller’s Response Period”) whether Seller, in its sole discretion, agrees to attempt to cure any of such Purchaser’s Objections (“Seller’s Response”). If Seller agrees in Seller’s Response to attempt to cure any of such Purchaser’s Objections, Seller shall use good faith efforts (without the obligation to expend any money or incur any liability) to cure such Purchaser’s Objections which Seller has agreed to attempt to cure on or before the Closing Date to the reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser. If Seller is unable to cure such Purchaser’s Objections by the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, on the Closing Date, elect (1) to waive such Purchaser’s Objections without any abatement in the Purchase Price, or (2) to terminate this Agreement in which case the entire Deposit (less the Initial Deposit, which Initial Deposit shall be delivered to Seller) shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and the parties hereto shall be released from all further obligations hereunder, except those which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement. If Seller does not provide Seller’s Response to Purchaser within Seller’s Response Period, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to attempt to cure Purchaser’s Objections. If Seller elects in Seller’s Response not to attempt to cure all or any number of Purchaser’s Objections or if Seller is deemed to have elected not to attempt to cure Purchaser’s Objections pursuant to the preceding sentence, within five (5) days after the expiration of Seller’s Response Period, Purchaser shall elect (1) to waive any Purchaser’s Objections which Seller has elected or is deemed to have elected not to attempt to cure without any abatement in the Purchase Price, or (2) to terminate this Agreement in which case the entire Deposit (less the Initial Deposit, which Initial Deposit shall be delivered to Seller) shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and the parties hereto shall be released from all further obligations hereunder, except those which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement. In the event Purchaser does not provide to Seller notice of Purchaser’s election under the preceding sentence within such five (5) day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) of the preceding sentence. Except as otherwise provided herein, Seller shall not, after the date of this Agreement, voluntarily subject the Real Property to any liens, encumbrances, covenants, conditions, restrictions, easements or other title matters or seek any zoning changes without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Purchaser’s sole discretion. All title matters revealed by the Title Commitment and Survey (or any update obtained by Purchaser) which are not objected to by Purchaser as provided above (other than Monetary Title Encumbrances which will be covered by a Monetary Encumbrance Release at Closing), or which

8665334v.12

are waived or deemed waived by Purchaser as provided above, shall all be deemed Permitted Title Exceptions.

SELLER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

8665334v.12

thereunder in any material respect.

Seller is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (i.e., Seller is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, foreign estate or foreign person as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and regulations promulgated thereunder).

3.11. Patriot Act. Seller is not acting, directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of any person, group, entity or nation named by the United States Treasury Department as a Specifically Designated National and Blocked person, or for or on behalf of any person, group, entity or nation designated in Presidential Executive Order 13224 as a person who commits, threatens to commit, or supports terrorism; and it is not engaged in this transaction directly or indirectly on behalf of,

Each of the representations and warranties contained in this Article III and its various subparagraphs are intended for the benefit of Purchaser and may be waived in whole or in part, by Purchaser. Subject to the limitations contained in Section 10.12 hereof, all rights and remedies arising in connection with the untruth or inaccuracy of any such representations and warranties shall survive the Closing of the transaction contemplated hereby as provided in Section 10.12.

The term “to Seller’s knowledge” or similar phrase as used in this Article III, shall mean the then actual current conscious knowledge of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ who is the representative of Seller familiar with the subject matter of the representations and warranties, without any duty of investigation or inquiry.

3.13. LIMITATION ON SELLER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT, OTHER THAN A REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT (A BREACH OF WHICH PURCHASER MAY MAINTAIN AN ACTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND SUBJECT TO ARTICLE IX AND SECTION 10.12 OF THIS AGREEMENT) OR AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN A CLOSING DOCUMENT, THE PROPERTY IS SOLD “AS IS” “WHERE IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS” AND NEITHER SELLER, NOR ANY AGENT OR REPRESENTATIVE OF SELLER, HAS MADE, NOR IS SELLER LIABLE FOR OR BOUND IN ANY MANNER BY ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, GUARANTEES, PROMISES, STATEMENTS, INDUCEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS OR INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF, THE PHYSICAL CONDITION, ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION, INCOME, EXPENSES OR OPERATION THEREOF, THE USES WHICH CAN BE MADE OF THE SAME OR ANY OTHER MATTER OR THING WITH RESPECT THERETO, INCLUDING ANY EXISTING OR PROSPECTIVE LEASES. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT, OTHER THAN A REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT (A BREACH OF WHICH PURCHASER MAY MAINTAIN AN ACTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND SUBJECT TO ARTICLE IX AND SECTION 10.12 OF THIS AGREEMENT) OR AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN A CLOSING DOCUMENT, SELLER IS NOT LIABLE FOR OR BOUND BY (AND PURCHASER HAS NOT RELIED UPON) ANY ORAL OR WRITTEN STATEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS, OR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERTAINING TO THE OPERATION OF THE PROPERTY, OR ANY OTHER INFORMATION RESPECTING THE PROPERTY FURNISHED BY SELLER OR ANY EMPLOYEE, AGENT, CONSULTANT OR OTHER PERSON REPRESENTING OR PURPORTEDLY REPRESENTING SELLER.

PURCHASER ALSO REPRESENTS THAT, AS OF THE CLOSING DATE, IT SHALL HAVE INDEPENDENTLY INVESTIGATED, ANALYZED AND APPRAISED TO ITS SATISFACTION THE VALUE AND THE PROFITABILITY OF THE PROPERTY. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED TO BE OPERATIVE, THE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION ARE “CONSPICUOUS” DISCLAIMERS FOR PURPOSES OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW, RULE, REGULATION OR ORDER. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 3.13 SHALL SURVIVE THE CLOSING.

Purchaser recognizes that the Hotel and Personal Property are not new and that there exists a possibility that the Property is not in compliance with the requirements which would be imposed on a newly constructed hotel by presently effective federal, state and local building, plumbing, electrical, fire, health, handicap, environmental and life safety laws, codes, ordinances, rules, orders and/or regulations (collectively, the “building codes”). The Hotel and other improvements on the Land may contain substances or materials no longer permitted to be used in newly constructed buildings including, without limitation, asbestos or other insulation materials, lead or other paints, wiring, electrical, or plumbing materials and may not contain other materials or equipment required to be installed in a newly constructed building. Purchaser shall have the opportunity to review the results of such investigations and inspections of the Property as Purchaser deemed necessary with respect to all such matters. Subject to Purchaser’s rights to terminate pursuant to Section 2.4, Purchaser agrees to accept and shall the Property in an “AS-IS, WHERE IS” condition and at Closing to accept and assume the risk of noncompliance of the Property with all such building codes. Except with respect to those representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser waives any right to excuse or delay performance of its obligations under this Agreement or to assert any claim against Seller (before or after Closing) arising out of any failure of the Property to comply with any such building codes. Seller shall endeavor to provide copies to Purchaser all of the Operating Agreements, Occupancy Agreements, Leased Property Agreements, Employment Agreements, the Authorizations and the Warranties and Guaranties (the “Property Agreements”). Purchaser further acknowledges that Seller is relying on Manager to provide copies of the Property Agreements. Purchaser acknowledges that Purchaser is assuming all Property Agreements whether or not copies of which have been provided to Purchaser, and except with respect to those representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement (a breach of which Purchaser

8665334v.12

may maintain an action in accordance with and subject to Article IX and Section 10.12 of this Agreement), Purchaser hereby waives any claims Purchaser may have for the fact that a particular Property Agreement may not have been provided to Purchaser for its review.

Except with respect to those representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement (a breach of which Purchaser may maintain an action in accordance with and subject to Article IX and Section 10.12 of this Agreement), it is specifically understood and agreed by Seller and Purchaser that Seller does not make, and shall not be deemed to have made, any representation, warranty or covenant with respect to (i) any Environmental Laws that may affect any of the Property or (ii) the presence or absence of any Hazardous or Toxic Substances in, on, above, under or about any of the Property. Purchaser, for itself and its successors in interest, hereby releases Seller and its Affiliates from, and waives all claims and liability against Seller and its Affiliates for or attributable to, any structural, physical and/or environmental condition at any Property, including without limitation the presence, discovery or removal of any Hazardous Substances or Toxic Substances in, at, about or under such Property, or connected with or arising out of any and all claims or causes of action based upon any Environmental Laws, including, without limitation, CERCLA (Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended by ▇▇▇▇ Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act of 1986 and as may be further amended from time to time) or any related claims or causes of action or any other federal or state based statutory or regulatory or other causes of action for environmental contamination at, in or under any Property. As used in this Section 3.13, (A) the term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, State and local laws, codes, ordinances, rules, orders and regulations now or hereafter in effect relating to pollution or the protection of the environment, including without limitation, all laws, codes, ordinances, rules, orders and regulations governing the generation, use, collection, treatment, storage, transportation, recovery, removal, discharge, spill or disposal of any or all Hazardous or Toxic Substances, and (B) the term “Hazardous Substances” or “Toxic Substances” means materials and substances defined as “hazardous substances”, “hazardous wastes”, “toxic substances” or “toxic wastes” in (I) the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, 42 U.S.C. Sections 9601-9675, as amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1988, and any further amendments thereto and rules, orders and regulations thereunder; (II) the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, 42 U.S.C. Sections 6901-6992, as amended by the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984, and any further amendments thereto and rules, orders and regulations thereunder; or (III) any other Environmental Laws.

(h) Any other documents or instruments specifically required by this Agreement to be delivered by Purchaser on or before the Closing Date.

8665334v.12

(i) At the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver to Escrow Agent the portion of the Purchase Price described in Section 2.2 hereof.

(j) The Real Estate Excise Tax Affidavit.

7.4. Mutual Deliveries. At the Closing, Purchaser and Seller (or Operating Lessee, as applicable) shall mutually execute and deliver or cause to be delivered:

(a) A closing statement reflecting the Purchase Price and the adjustments and prorations required hereunder and the allocation of income and expenses required hereby.

(b) Such other and further documents, papers and instruments as may be reasonably required by the parties hereto or their respective counsel or the Title Company or Manager which are not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Closing Documents.

To the extent the delivery of any of the items in Sections 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4 of this Agreement are conditions precedent to the obligation of a party pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 5.2 of this Agreement, and the condition relating to any such item is not satisfied as of Closing, but the party for whose benefit such unsatisfied condition is made elects, nonetheless, to proceed to Closing, the delivery of the item applicable to the unsatisfied condition shall not be required pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4 of this Agreement.

7.5. Closing Costs. Except as is explicitly provided in this Agreement, each party hereto shall pay its own legal fees and expenses. All filing fees for the Deed and the transfer, recording, sales or other similar taxes and surtaxes due with respect to the transfer of title, as well as the cost for title insurance, endorsements and surveys, and any other costs specified on Schedule 1 attached hereto, shall all be paid in accordance with allocations set forth in Schedule 1. To the extent releases or corrective instruments are required to be delivered by Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Seller shall pay for the costs associated with the releases of any deeds of trust, mortgages and other Monetary Title Encumbrances encumbering the Property and for any costs associated with any corrective instruments. All other costs (except any costs incurred by either party for its own account) which are necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated hereunder shall be allocated between Purchaser and Seller in accordance with local custom in the jurisdiction in which the Hotel is located. The provisions of this Section 7.5 shall survive the Closing and any termination of this Agreement.

7.6. Revenue and Expense Allocations. All revenues and expenses with respect to the Property, and applicable to the period of time before and after Closing, determined in accordance with sound accounting principles consistently applied, shall be allocated between Seller (including Operating Lessee) and Purchaser as provided herein. Pursuant to such allocation, Seller (including Operating Lessee) shall be entitled to all revenue and shall be responsible for all expenses for the period of time up to but not including the date of Closing, and Purchaser shall be entitled to all revenue and shall be responsible for all expenses for the period of time from, after and including the date of Closing. Such allocations and adjustments shall be shown on the closing statement (with such supporting documentation as the parties hereto may reasonably require being attached as exhibits to the closing statements) and shall increase or decrease (as the case may be) the cash

8665334v.12

amount payable by Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof. All prorations shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days in the year and month in which the Closing occurs or in the period of computation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following items of revenue and expense shall be allocated and prorated at Closing:

(d) Current rents (excluding rent under the Operating Lease).

(e) Real estate and personal property taxes (with maximum allowable discounts for early or prompt payment).

(f) Revenue and expenses under the Operating Agreements, Management Agreement (including fees and payments due Manager including, without limitation, any accrued but unpaid incentive fee due to Manager for calendar year 2016) and Leased Property Agreements to be assigned to and assumed by Purchaser. Seller and Purchaser agree that expenses under Operating Agreements which constitute ongoing construction, capital improvement and other similar work shall be allocated to Seller as to work completed prior to the Closing Date (and applicable retainage related thereto), and shall be allocated to Purchaser as to work completed from and after the Closing Date (and applicable retainage related thereto). As between Purchaser and Seller, Purchaser shall be responsible for payment, either directly or to the Manager, of all Employee Liabilities that are due and payable and accrued from and after the Closing Date with respect to Hotel Employees, but Purchaser shall receive a proration credit in an amount equal to all Employee Liabilities accrued (or otherwise owed) but unpaid through the Closing Date (“Benefits Credit”); provided, however, that the Benefits Credit shall not include any amounts for sick or other accrued leave that is available only on a “use it or lose it” basis (that is, for which Hotel Employees are not entitled to a cash payment in lieu of taking such leave). The covenants and agreements contained in this Section 7.6(c) are not intended and shall not confer any benefit or right on any Person other than Seller and Purchaser. Except as expressly provided herein, as between Seller and Purchaser, Seller shall remain responsible for any other Employee Liabilities earned or accrued prior to the Closing Date, including amounts due former Hotel Employees, not included within the Benefits Credit.

(g) Utility charges (including, but not limited to, charges for phone service, cable television, gas, water, sewer and electricity).

(h) Municipal or other governmental improvement liens and special assessments, which shall be paid by Seller at Closing where the work has been completed, and which shall be assumed by Purchaser at Closing and paid by Purchaser where the work has been authorized or started, but not completed; provided, however, that if such liens or assessments are payable in installments, the amount of the installment applicable to the period which includes the Closing Date shall be allocated in the same manner as other items of expenses herein; and for all other installments, Seller shall be responsible for the payment of and shall pay such installments relating to periods prior to the Closing Date and Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of and shall pay such installments relating to periods from and after the Closing Date.

(i) License and permit fees, where transferable.

8665334v.12

(j) All other revenues and expenses of the Property, including, but not limited to, such things as restaurant, bar and meeting room income and expenses and the like.

(k) The Rooms Ledger and housekeeping costs for the date of Closing (to be apportioned equally between Seller [including Operating Lessee] and Purchaser).

(l) Purchaser shall receive a credit for all vouchers and gift certificates outstanding as of the Closing Date.

(m) Such other items as are usually and customarily prorated between purchasers and sellers of hotel properties in the area where the Property is located.

Seller shall receive a credit for any prepaid expenses accruing to periods on or after the Closing Date. Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price for the total of (i) prepaid rents, (ii) prepaid room receipts and deposits, function receipts and deposits and other reservation receipts and deposits and (iii) unforfeited security deposits together with any interest payable to a tenant thereon held by Seller or Operating Lessee under Occupancy Agreements. At Closing, Seller or Operating Lessee shall sell to Purchaser in connection with the Hotel, and Purchaser shall purchase from Seller or Operating Lessee, at face value, in addition to the Purchase Price: (i) all cash balances in house banks and cash funds remaining at the Hotel, and the outstanding balance of any funds in reserve accounts that are not returned to Seller at Closing (except as provided below); and (ii) the so-called “guest ledger” as mutually approved by Purchaser and Seller or Operating Lessee for the Hotel of guest accounts receivable payable to the Hotel as of the check-out time for the Hotel on the Closing Date (based on guests and customers then using the Hotel) both (1) in occupancy from the preceding night through check out time the morning of the Closing Date, and (2) previously in occupancy prior to check out time on the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, transfer or sale at face value shall have the following meanings: (i) for cash, an amount equal to the total of all cash funds or reserve balances transferred to Purchaser or for the benefit of the Hotel following Closing; and (ii) for the guest ledger, the total of all credit card or other accounts receivable as shown on the records of the Hotel, less actual collection costs (i.e., fees retained by credit card companies), less accounting charges for rooms furnished on a gratuity or complimentary basis to any hotel staff or as an accommodation to other parties and less Purchaser’s one-half (1/2) share of the Rooms Ledger. The purchase price of said ▇▇▇▇▇ cash fund and guest ledger shall be paid to Seller and Operating Lessee at Closing by a credit to Seller in the computation of the adjustments and prorations on the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchase Price shall be inclusive of all funds in the Reserve on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 5.02.A of the Management Agreement) and Purchaser shall have no obligation to pay for such funds.

Seller and Operating Lessee shall be required to pay or cause to be paid all retail sales and B&O taxes (as distinguished from any tax on the sale of any personal property effected pursuant to this Agreement), occupancy, rooms taxes and liquor taxes and like impositions on Hotel operations up to but not including the date of Closing. Any such taxes applicable to the Rooms Ledger shall be apportioned equally between Seller (and Operating Lessee) and Purchaser.

If accurate allocations cannot be made at Closing because current bills are not obtainable (as, for example, in the case of utility bills and/or real estate or personal property taxes), the parties

8665334v.12

shall allocate such revenue or expenses at Closing on the best available information, subject to adjustment upon receipt of the final ▇▇▇▇ or other evidence of the applicable revenue or expense. The obligation to make the adjustment shall survive the closing of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Any revenue received or expense incurred by Seller or Operating Lessee or by Purchaser with respect to the Property after the date of Closing shall be promptly allocated in the manner described herein and the parties shall promptly pay or reimburse any amount due. If Seller and Purchaser are unable to agree on the closing statement allocations on the Closing Date, the Closing shall occur and a preliminary closing statement shall be signed with respect to such amounts and issues that are agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser. With respect to any closing statement amounts or issues that are not agreed upon at Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall thereafter work in good faith to resolve, allocate or prorate such amounts or issues; provided that if such amounts or issues are not fully agreed upon and paid within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing, then, in such event, such amounts or issues shall be submitted to an independent certified public accountant with a hospitality practice reasonably acceptable to Seller and Purchaser, for final resolution, and Seller and Purchaser agree to be bound by the determination of such accountant. The costs and expenses incurred in connection with the services of such accountant shall be borne and paid equally by Purchaser and Seller. The provisions of this Section 7.6 shall survive the Closing.

7.7. Safe Deposit Boxes. On the Closing Date, Seller shall cause Operating Lessee to cause Manager to make available to Purchaser at the Hotel all receipts and agreements in Manager’s possession relating to all safe deposit boxes in use at the Hotel, other than safes or lockboxes, if any, located inside individual guest rooms in the Hotel. From and after the Closing, Seller, Operating Lessee and Manager shall be relieved of any and all responsibility in connection with each said box, and Purchaser shall indemnify Seller, Operating Lessee, Manager and any Affiliate thereof and hold them harmless from and against any claim, liability, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by them with respect thereto. Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from any other liability, claim, cost or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) with respect to such safety deposit box arising prior to the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section 7.7 shall survive the Closing.

7.8. Inventory of Baggage. The representatives of Seller, Operating Lessee and/or Manager, and of Purchaser shall prepare an inventory of baggage at the Hotel as of 12:00 noon on the Closing Date (which inventory of baggage shall be binding on all parties thereto) of (i) all luggage, valises and trunks checked or left in the care of the Hotel by guests then or formerly in the Hotel, (ii) parcels, laundry, valet packages and other property of guests checked or left in the care of the Hotel by guests then or formerly in the Hotel (excluding, however, property in Hotel safe deposit boxes), (iii) all luggage or other property of guests retained by Seller as security for any unpaid accounts receivable, and (iv) all items contained in the Hotel lost and found. Purchaser shall be responsible from and after the Closing Date for all baggage and other items listed in such inventory of baggage, and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller, Operating Lessee, Manager and any Affiliate thereof harmless from and against any claim, liability, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by them with respect thereto. Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from any other liability or claims with respect to such inventory of

8665334v.12

baggage arising prior to the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section 7.8 shall survive the Closing.

7.9. Acquisition and Payment for Inventory. Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Purchase Price shall include all the Inventory at the Property.

7.10. Assumption. At Closing, Purchaser shall assume all (i) obligations which Purchaser expressly assumes under this Agreement, including the Management Agreement, (ii) Advance Bookings, (iii) liabilities for which Purchaser receives a credit to the Purchase Price on the closing statement or pursuant to any post-closing adjustments, and (iv) obligations under Permitted Title Exceptions which accrue to the period from and after the Closing Date, or which accrue to the period prior to the Closing Date and for which Purchaser receives a credit to the Purchase Price on the closing statement or pursuant to any post-closing adjustments. The provisions of this Section 7.10 shall survive the Closing.

7.11. No Assumption of Seller Debts. Except as provided expressly herein, the parties acknowledge that the purchase and sale of the Property involves only the purchase and sale of the Property, and the parties intend that Purchaser not be deemed a successor of Seller with respect to any debts, liabilities and obligations of Seller to any third parties other than with respect to those debts, liabilities and obligations of Seller expressly assumed hereunder by Purchaser. Accordingly, Seller shall, other than with respect to the environmental or physical condition of the Property, (a) pay and/or perform all such debts, liabilities and obligations not so expressly assumed, including, but not limited to, all taxes levied or assessed with respect to the period of Seller’s ownership of the Property, regardless of when levied or assessed (i.e., even if assessed subsequent to Closing) and regardless of against whom they shall be levied or assessed (i.e., if assessed against Purchaser, Seller shall nonetheless pay the same), and including any accounts payable of Seller relating to its period of ownership of the Property which are not assumed by Purchaser, and (b) indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless of and from any and all loss, cost, damage, liability and expense, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by Purchaser caused by Seller’s breach of its obligations during the period of Seller’s ownership of the Property that are not assumed by Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless of and from any and all loss, cost, damage, liability and expense, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by Seller which arise and accrue and are attributable to the Property from and after Closing. The provisions of this Section 7.11 shall survive Closing.

ARTICLE VIII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

8.1. Fire or Other Casualty. Seller agrees to give Purchaser prompt notice of any fire or other casualty to the Property costing more than Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) to repair and occurring between the Effective Date and the Closing Date of which Seller has knowledge. If, prior to Closing, the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty which is fully insured (without regard to deductibles) and would cost not more than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) and require less than 180 days to repair, then neither party shall have the right to terminate its

8665334v.12

obligations under this Agreement to purchase or sell the Property by reason thereof and the Closing shall take place without abatement of the Purchase Price, but Seller shall assign to Purchaser at the Closing all of Seller’s interest in any insurance proceeds (except use and occupancy insurance, rent loss and business interruption insurance, and any similar insurance for the period preceding the Closing Date) that may be payable to Seller on account of any such fire or other casualty, to the extent such proceeds have not been previously expended or are otherwise required to reimburse Seller for actual expenditures of restoration, plus Seller shall credit the amount of any deductibles under any policies related to such proceeds to the Purchase Price. If any such damage due to fire or other casualty is insured and would cost in excess of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or require more than 180 days to repair, then Purchaser may terminate its obligations under this Agreement to purchase the Property by written notice given to Seller within ten (10) days after Seller has given Purchaser the notice of damage or casualty referred to in this Section 8.1, or on the Closing Date, whichever is earlier, in which case the entire Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and the parties hereto shall be released of all further obligations hereunder with respect to the Property except those which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement. Should Purchaser elect to proceed to Closing notwithstanding the amount of the insured loss or the time required for repairs, the Closing shall take place without abatement of the Purchase Price and at Closing Seller shall assign to Purchaser the insurance proceeds and grant to Purchaser a credit against the Purchase Price equal to the amount of the applicable deductible. If, prior to Closing, any Property is damaged by fire or other casualty which is uninsured and would cost more than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) to repair, then Purchaser may terminate its obligations under this Agreement to purchase the Property by written notice given to the Seller within ten (10) days after Seller has given Purchaser the notice of damage or casualty or on the Closing Date, whichever is earlier, in which case the entire Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and the parties hereto shall be released of all further obligations hereunder, except those which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the estimated amount to repair such uninsured casualty is not more than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) but more than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), Seller, at its option, may elect to provide Purchaser with a credit to the Purchase Price at Closing for the estimated amount to repair such casualty, such estimate to be subject to Purchaser’s approval in its commercially reasonable judgment, in which event Purchaser shall proceed to Closing and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the estimated amount to repair such casualty. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate its obligations under this Agreement with respect to an uninsured casualty as aforesaid, or if any uninsured fire or casualty would cost not more than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) to repair, then the Closing shall take place as provided herein, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the estimated amount to repair such casualty, not to exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000).

8.2. Condemnation. After the Effective Date, Seller agrees to give Purchaser prompt notice of any notice it receives of any taking or threat of taking by condemnation of any part of or rights appurtenant to the Real Property. If such taking will materially interfere with the operation or use of the Hotel which constitutes a part of such Real Property, the Purchaser may terminate its obligations under this Agreement to purchase the Property by written notice to Seller within ten (10) days after Seller has given Purchaser the notice of taking referred to in this Section 8.2, or on the Closing Date, whichever is earlier. For purposes of this Section 8.2, a taking will materially

8665334v.12

interfere with the operation or use of the Hotel if it leaves remaining a balance of the Real Property in a condition which may not reasonably be anticipated to be economically operated for the purposes and in the manner in which the Real Property was operated prior to such taking. If Purchaser exercises its option to terminate its obligations to purchase the Property pursuant to this Section 8.2, the entire Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and the parties hereto shall be released from all further obligations hereunder with respect to the Property, except those which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser does not so elect to terminate its obligations to purchase the Property, then the Closing shall take place as provided herein, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser at the Closing all of Seller’s interest in any condemnation award or payments in lieu of condemnation which may be payable to Seller on account of any such condemnation or threat thereof and, at Closing, Seller shall credit to the amount of the Purchase Price payable by Purchaser the amount, if any, of condemnation proceeds or payments in lieu of condemnation received by Seller between the Effective Date and Closing less (i) any amounts reasonably expended by Seller or Operating Lessee or Manager in collecting such sums, (ii) any amounts reasonably used by Seller or Operating Lessee or Manager to repair the Property as a result of such condemnation, and (iii) any amounts which are reasonably allocated to lost earnings or other damages or losses (other than unrepaired property damages) reasonably allocated or attributed to the period of time prior to Closing. If, prior to the Closing, there shall occur a taking by condemnation of any part of or rights appurtenant to the Property that does not materially interfere with the operation or use of the Hotel which constitutes a part of the Property, Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate its obligations to purchase the Property under this Agreement by reason thereof and the Closing shall take place without abatement of the Purchase Price, but Seller shall assign to Purchaser at the Closing all of Seller’s interest in any condemnation award or payments in lieu of condemnation which may be payable to Seller on account of any such condemnation or threat thereof and, at Closing, Seller shall credit to the amount of the Purchase Price payable by Purchaser the amount, if any, of condemnation proceeds or payments in lieu of condemnation received by Seller between the Effective Date and Closing less (i) any amounts reasonably expended by Seller or Operating Lessee or Manager in collecting such sums, (ii) any amounts reasonably used by Seller or Operating Lessee or Manager to repair the Property as a result of such condemnation, and (iii) any amounts which are reasonably allocated to lost earnings or other damages or losses (other than unrepaired property damages) reasonably allocated or attributed to the period of time prior to Closing. Provided Purchaser has not exercised its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.2, Seller shall notify Purchaser in advance regarding any proceeding or negotiation with respect to the condemnation and Purchaser shall have a reasonable right, at its own cost and expense, to appear and participate in any such proceeding or negotiation. For purposes of Sections 8.1 and 8.2 of this Agreement, estimates of costs and time required for restoration or repair shall be made by an architect or engineer, as appropriate, designated by Seller and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser.

8.3. Broker. The parties acknowledge that Broker has been the procuring cause of this Agreement. It shall be the obligation of Seller to pay Broker its commission, when, as and if, and only if, the transaction contemplated hereby actually closes, in accordance with a separate agreement between the Broker and Seller. There is no other real estate broker involved in this transaction. Purchaser warrants and represents to Seller that Purchaser has not dealt with any other real estate broker in connection with this transaction, nor has Purchaser been introduced to the

8665334v.12

Property or to Seller by any other real estate broker, and Purchaser shall indemnify Seller and hold Seller harmless from and against any claims, suits, demands or liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever arising on account of the claim of any other person, firm or corporation to a real estate brokerage commission or a finder’s fee as a result of having dealt with Purchaser, or as a result of having introduced Purchaser to Seller or to the Property. In like manner, Seller warrants and represents to Purchaser that Seller has not dealt with any other real estate broker in connection with this transaction, nor has Seller been introduced to Purchaser by any other real estate broker, and Seller shall indemnify Purchaser and save and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any claims, suits, demands or liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever arising on account of the claim of any person, firm or corporation to a real estate brokerage commission or a finder’s fee as a result of having dealt with Seller in connection with this transaction. The provisions of this Section 8.3 shall survive the Closing and any termination of this Agreement.

8.4. Bulk Sale and Tax Clearance Certificates. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that they do not intend to comply with and have agreed to waive the provisions of any statutory bulk sale or similar requirements applicable to the transaction to be effected by this Agreement, nor shall any sale and occupancy or similar tax clearance certificates shall be obtained in connection with the Closing, and in both cases, Seller and Purchaser agree to rely upon the adjustment and indemnification provisions of this Agreement to address any matters that would otherwise be subject to such bulk sale or other requirements or provided for in such tax clearance certificates.

8.5. Confidentiality. Except as hereinafter provided, Purchaser and Seller and their Affiliates shall keep the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and all documents or information disclosed to or made available to or discovered by each party in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Submission Matters) confidential and such information shall be used solely for the purpose of evaluating or effecting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and neither Purchaser nor Seller shall make any public announcements hereof unless and until the Closing occurs unless the other first reasonably approves of same in writing, nor shall either disclose unless and until the Closing occurs the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement or such other documents or information, except to persons who, in the reasonable business judgment of Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, “need to know” for the purpose of evaluating or effecting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and who are instructed to keep such information confidential, such as their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants, engineers, surveyors, consultants, financiers, partners, investors, potential lessees and bankers and such other third parties whose assistance is required in connection with the consummation of this transaction (collectively, “Representatives”); provided, however, that information or documents shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.5 if, not otherwise in violation of this Section 8.5, such information or documents, (i) were or become(s) generally available to the public, or (ii) were or become(s) available to Purchaser or its Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Seller or its Affiliates or Manager. Upon full execution of this Agreement and if the Closing occurs, the parties may either make a joint press release, or each party may make an individual press release that is mutually and reasonably agreed to by the other party; provided, that if the parties fail to agree on the contents of a joint press release or separate press releases, each party may nevertheless make its own individual press release, provided the other party shall be given a reasonable opportunity to make,

8665334v.12

on the date of such individual press release, its own individual press release, and copies of each such individual press release shall be delivered to the other party prior to being made and any description of the other party included therein or any of the constituent members or partners thereof shall be subject to the approval of such other party prior to the release thereof. The terms of this Section 8.5 shall supersede any prior confidentiality agreements executed by Seller, Purchaser, or any of their respective Affiliates, parents, or subsidiaries, to the extent such confidentiality agreements relate or refer, directly or indirectly, to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 8.5 relating to press releases shall survive the Closing and all the provisions of this Section 8.5 shall survive a termination of this Agreement for a period of two (2) years after such termination; provided, however, that any liabilities or obligations of either Seller, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates, parents, or subsidiaries that may have accrued or arisen under any confidentiality agreements prior to the Effective Date shall survive such confidentiality agreements being superceded hereby.

If either Seller or Purchaser or any of their Affiliates or any of their Representatives is required by any subpoena, interrogatories, request for production, or other legal process or by any Applicable Laws to disclose any confidential information, Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, will give the other party prompt written notice of the requirement and will cooperate with the other party so that the other party, at its expense, may seek an appropriate protective order. In the absence of a protective order, the party required to disclose, including any Representatives, may disclose only such confidential information as may be necessary to avoid any penalty, sanction, or other material adverse consequence, and the party required to disclose will use reasonable efforts to secure confidential treatment of any confidential information so disclosed.

Seller and Purchaser stipulate that the breach of the provisions of this Section 8.5 by the other party or its respective Affiliates or Representatives may cause irreparable harm to the non-breaching party for which damages may not constitute an adequate remedy. Accordingly, the parties agree that any attempted, threatened, or actual breach of the provisions of this Section 8.5 by one party or its Affiliates or Representatives may be enjoined by an appropriate court order or judgment. The parties waive any requirement for the posting of a bond or other security as a condition to such court order or judgment. Injunctive relief will not be the sole remedy of the non-breaching party for a breach of the provisions of this Section 8.5, and all legal and equitable remedies will continue to be available to the non-breaching party. If the non-breaching party is the prevailing party in any litigation relating to the breach of the provisions of this Section 8.5 by the other party or its Affiliates or Representatives, the non-breaching party will be entitled to recover (in addition to any damages or other relief granted) its reasonable legal fees and other expenses in connection with such litigation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other agreement to which the parties hereto are parties or by which they are bound, any and all obligations of confidentiality contained herein and therein (the “Confidentiality Obligations”), as they relate to the transactions and events contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction”), shall not apply to the “structure or tax aspects” (as that phrase is used in Section 1.6011‑4T(b)(3) [or any successor provision] of the Treasury Regulations [the “Confidentiality Regulation”] promulgated under Section 6011 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) of the Transaction; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Obligations nevertheless shall apply at a given time to any and

8665334v.12

all items of information not required to be freely disclosable at such time in order for the Transaction not to be treated as “offered under conditions of confidentiality” within the meaning of the Confidentiality Regulation.

8.6. Liquor License. If, Purchaser having used commercially reasonable good faith efforts, upon Closing, the existing liquor license for the Hotel has not been transferred to Purchaser or Purchaser’s nominee or a new liquor license or a temporary liquor license has not been issued to Purchaser or Purchaser’s nominee, then, subject to Applicable Laws, Seller shall use good faith efforts (not to include by Seller the expenditure of any money or guaranty of any obligation) to cause the holder of the existing liquor license (the “Existing Permittee”) to enter into an interim liquor agreement (an “Interim Liquor Agreement”) or any other such license agreements, management agreements and/or other interim agreements, with Purchaser or Purchaser’s designee as may be reasonably necessary for the continuation of the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages at the Hotel after the Closing and before such time as an Affiliate or designee of Purchaser (the “New Permittee”) obtains permits, which may be temporary permits (the “New Liquor Permits”) relating to the sale and on-premises consumption of liquor and other alcoholic beverages to replace the existing liquor license; provided, however, that (i) Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller and Existing Permittee harmless from any liability, damages, costs, expenses or claims encountered in connection with such operations during said period of time, and Purchaser shall procure and pay for dram shop liability insurance (in amounts and with deductibles as previously maintained by Seller) naming Purchaser and Seller and Existing Permittee as insureds thereunder, and (ii) the obligation of Seller to cooperate and keep open the liquor facilities of the Hotel shall terminate one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date, or earlier, if Purchaser obtains the New Liquor Permits at an earlier date. At such time after Closing as the New Liquor Permits are obtained, Existing Permittee or Seller, as applicable, will convey, at no additional cost, all alcoholic beverages to New Permittee by a conveyance document in form reasonably acceptable to Seller and Purchaser and in accordance with the requirements of all Applicable Laws. Seller agrees to use good faith efforts to cause Existing Permittee to promptly agree in writing after the Effective Date on the form of and to deliver the Interim Liquor Agreement at Closing (if needed). This Section 8.6 shall survive the Closing.

8.7. Seller’s Accounts Receivable. It is expressly agreed by and between Purchaser and Seller that Seller is not hereby agreeing to sell or cause to be sold to Purchaser, and Purchaser is not hereby agreeing to purchase any of Seller’s or Operating Lessee’s accounts receivable other than with respect to amounts paid pursuant to Section 7.6 hereof for the “guest ledger”. All of Seller’s and Operating Lessee’s accounts receivable shall be and remain the property of Seller and Operating Lessee subsequent to the Closing of the transaction contemplated hereby. If Purchaser actually collects any such amounts it shall pay the monies collected in respect thereof to Seller and Operating Lessee at the end of each calendar month, accompanied by a statement showing the amount collected on each such account. Purchaser shall use good faith efforts to collect or to cause Manager to collect Seller’s and Operating Lessee’s accounts receivable, but shall not be required to take any legal proceeding or action to effect collection on behalf of Seller or Operating Lessee. The provisions of this Section 8.7 shall survive the Closing.

8665334v.12

8.8. Management Agreement. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to obtain, during the Study Period, the consent of Manager to the assumption of the Management Agreement by Purchaser. At Closing, Purchaser shall, without liability or expense to Seller, assume the obligations of Seller and Operating Lessee, and any of their Affiliates, as applicable, under the Management Agreement, or any guarantee thereof with respect to the period from and after the Closing Date. In any such event, Purchaser shall cause Manager to release Seller and Operating Lessee, and any of their Affiliates, as applicable, from all liability for obligations under the Management Agreement or any guarantee thereof, accruing from and after the Closing Date. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, and hold Seller and Operating Lessee, and their Affiliates harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, penalties, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that may at any time be incurred by Seller or Operating Lessee, or any of their Affiliates arising out of, by reason of, or in connection with any obligation of, or default by, Purchaser under the Management Agreement which occurs, accrues or arises on or after the Closing Date. Other than with respect to the physical and/or environmental condition of the Property, Seller agrees to indemnify, and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, penalties, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that may at any time be incurred by Purchaser arising out of, by reason of, or in connection with any obligation of, or default by, Seller or Operating Lessee under the Management Agreement which occurs, accrues or arises prior to the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section 8.8 shall survive Closing.

ARTICLE IX

DEFAULT; TERMINATION RIGHTS

9.1. Default by Seller/Failure of Conditions Precedent. If any condition set forth herein for the benefit of Purchaser cannot or will not be satisfied prior to Closing (unless the failure to satisfy such condition is caused by the default of Purchaser or its Affiliates under this Agreement, or is otherwise within the reasonable control of Purchaser or its Affiliates), and, if curable, if Seller fails to cure any such matter or satisfy such condition within five (5) calendar days after written notice thereof from Purchaser (or such other time period as may be explicitly provided for herein), (which five (5) calendar day or other such time periods shall, if necessary, automatically extend the Closing Date to the expiration date of such five (5) calendar day or other such time period), or upon the occurrence of any other event that would entitle Purchaser to terminate this Agreement and its obligations hereunder, unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement, Purchaser, as its sole and exclusive remedy shall elect either (a) to terminate this Agreement, in which event (i) the entire Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and Purchaser shall retain its right to enforce the indemnities and other provisions of this Agreement which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement, (ii) if the condition which has not been satisfied represents a material intentional breach by Seller of its obligations hereunder, then Seller shall be obligated upon demand to reimburse Purchaser for Purchaser’s actual out-of-pocket inspection, financing and other costs related to Purchaser’s entering into this Agreement, inspecting the Property and preparing for a Closing of the transaction contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, Purchaser’s

8665334v.12

attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and in connection with Purchaser’s due diligence review, audits and preparation for a Closing, such reimbursement not to exceed $100,000, and (iii) all other rights and obligations of Seller and Purchaser hereunder (except those set forth herein which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement) shall terminate immediately; or (b) to waive such matter or condition and proceed to Closing with no reduction in the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if, at the Closing, Seller fails to comply in any material respect with any of its obligations contained in Section 7.2 or 7.4 (the “Closing Obligations”), Purchaser shall have, in addition to Purchaser’s remedies contained in the preceding sentence, the option to waive all other actions, rights, or claims for damages for the failure to perform such Closing Obligations (other than costs and expenses incurred in enforcing this Agreement and its right to enforce the indemnities and other provisions of this Agreement which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement or Closing), and to bring an equitable action to enforce the Closing Obligations; provided, (i) Purchaser shall provide written notice of Purchaser’s intention to enforce the Closing Obligations by specific performance and Seller shall not have cured performance of the Closing Obligations within five (5) calendar days following delivery of such notice, and (ii) Purchaser’s suit for specific performance shall be filed against Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the county and state in which the Property is located, on or before sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, failing which, Purchaser shall be barred from enforcing this Agreement by specific performance and shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement as provided herein.

9.2. Default by Purchaser/Failure of Conditions Precedent. If any condition set forth herein for the benefit of Seller (other than a default by Purchaser) cannot or will not be satisfied prior to Closing, and if Purchaser fails to satisfy that condition within ten (10) business days after notice thereof from Seller, unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement, Seller, as its sole and exclusive remedy, shall elect either (a) to terminate this Agreement in which event the Deposit shall be promptly delivered to Seller and the parties hereto shall be released from all further obligations hereunder except those which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement, or (b) to waive its right to terminate, and instead, to proceed to Closing. If Purchaser defaults in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement, and Purchaser fails to cure any such default within the earlier of (i) the Closing, or (ii) ten (10) business days after notice thereof from Seller, then Seller’s sole remedy for such default shall be to terminate this Agreement and receive the Deposit and to retain its right to enforce the indemnities and other provisions of this Agreement which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be entitled to any notice and right to cure in the event it wrongfully fails to proceed to Closing as required by this Agreement. Seller and Purchaser agree that, in the event of such a default, the damages that Seller would sustain as a result thereof would be difficult if not impossible to ascertain. Therefore, Seller and Purchaser agree that, Seller shall receive the Deposit and retain the right to enforce the indemnities and other provisions of this Agreement which expressly survive a termination of this Agreement, as full and complete liquidated damages and as Seller’s sole remedy. The provisions of this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

9.3. Costs and Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any litigation or dispute between the parties arising out of or in any way connected with this Agreement, resulting in any litigation, then the substantially prevailing party in such litigation shall be entitled to recover its costs of prosecuting

8665334v.12

and/or defending same, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees at trial and all appellate levels. The provisions of this Section 9.3 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

9.4. Limitation of Liability. The liability of each party hereto resulting from the breach or default by such party shall be limited to direct actual damages incurred by the injured party and each party hereto hereby waives its rights to recover from the other party consequential, punitive, exemplary, and speculative damages. The provisions of this Section 9.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 9.4 shall not limit or affect the rights of Seller to receive the Deposit as liquidated damages as and when provided in this Agreement.

ARTICLE X

or to such other address as the intended recipient may have specified in a notice to the other party. Any party hereto may change its address or designate different or other persons or entities to receive copies by notifying the other party and Escrow Agent in a manner described in this Section.

10.10. Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent referred to in the definition thereof contained in Section 1.1 hereof has agreed to act as such for the convenience of the parties without fee or other charges for such services as Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall not be liable: (a) to any of the parties for any act or omission to act except for its own willful misconduct; (b) for any legal effect, insufficiency, or undesirability of any instrument deposited with or delivered by Escrow Agent or exchanged by the parties hereunder, whether or not Escrow Agent prepared such instrument; (c) for any loss or impairment of funds that have been deposited in escrow while those funds are in the course of collection, or while those funds are on deposit in a financial institution, if such loss or impairment results from the failure, insolvency or suspension of a financial institution; (d) for the expiration of any time limit or other consequence of delay, unless a properly executed written instruction, accepted by Escrow Agent, has instructed Escrow Agent to comply with said time limit; (e) for the default, error, action or omission of either party to the escrow. Escrow Agent, in its capacity as escrow agent, shall be entitled to rely on any document or paper received by it, believed by such Escrow Agent, in good faith, to be bona fide and genuine. In the event of any dispute as to the disposition of the Deposit or any other monies held in escrow, or of any documents held in escrow, Escrow Agent may continue to hold the Deposit pursuant to the terms hereof, or if Escrow Agent so elects, interplead the matter at the joint and several cost of Purchaser and Seller by filing an interpleader action in a court of general jurisdiction in the county or circuit where the Real Property is located (to the jurisdiction of which both parties do hereby consent), and pay into the registry of the court the Deposit, or deposit any such documents with respect to which there is a dispute in the Registry of such court, whereupon such Escrow Agent shall be relieved and released from any further liability as Escrow Agent hereunder. Escrow Agent shall not be liable for Escrow Agent’s compliance with any legal process, subpoena, writ, order, judgment and decree of any

8665334v.12

court, whether issued with or without jurisdiction, and whether or not subsequently vacated, modified, set aside or reversed. Purchaser and Seller agree to jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Escrow Agent from and against any loss, cost, damage, expense and attorney’s fee (collectively called “Expenses”) in connection with or in any way arising out of the escrow arrangement, other than expenses resulting from the Escrow Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

10.11. Incorporation by Reference. All of the exhibits and schedules attached hereto are by this reference incorporated herein and made a part hereof.

10.12. Survival. Except to the extent (i) that Seller gives Purchaser written notice prior to Closing of the untruth or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained herein, or (ii) Purchaser otherwise obtains actual knowledge prior to Closing of the untruth or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained herein, and Purchaser nevertheless elects to close this transaction, the representations and warranties made herein shall survive the Closing through but not beyond the Limitation Date (as hereinafter defined) after which such representations and warranties shall merge into the Closing Documents, provided that the aforesaid limitation shall not apply to the prosecution of any claim made and action commenced in accordance with clauses (a) and (b) below on or prior to the Limitation Date. Seller and Purchaser hereby agree that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any provision of law to the contrary, any action which may be brought for the untruth or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty in this Agreement (a “Misrepresentation Claim”) shall be forever barred unless, no later than nine (9) months following the Closing Date (the “Limitation Date”), the party claiming such Misrepresentation Claim (a) delivers to the other a written notice of the Misrepresentation Claim setting forth the basis for such Misrepresentation Claim, and (b) files a complaint or petition against the other party alleging such Misrepresentation Claim in an appropriate Federal district or state court and serves the same upon the party upon whom the claim is made. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Misrepresentation Claim that Purchaser may have at any time against Seller will not be valid or effective, and Seller shall have no liability with respect thereto, unless the aggregate of all valid Misrepresentation Claims exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (and if such claims exceed such amount, Purchaser shall be entitled to the full amount of such claims (i.e., from $1.00), but subject to the cap below). Seller’s liability for damages resulting from valid Misrepresentation Claims shall in no event exceed two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price in the aggregate. In no event shall the foregoing cap apply to any indemnities of Seller in favor of Purchaser which survive Closing.

10.13. Further Assurances. Seller and Purchaser each covenant and agree to sign, execute and deliver, or cause to be signed, executed and delivered, and to do or make, or cause to be done or made, upon the written request of the other party, any and all agreements, instruments, papers, deeds, acts or things, supplemental, confirmatory or otherwise, as may be reasonably required by either party hereto for the purpose of or in connection with consummating the transactions described herein provided that compliance with the provision of this Section 10.13 shall not increase the liability of the complying party.

8665334v.12

10.14. No Partnership. This Agreement does not and shall not be construed to create a partnership, joint venture or any other relationship between the parties hereto except the relationship of seller and purchaser specifically established hereby.

10.15. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to every provision hereof.

10.16. Signatory Exculpation. The signatory(ies) for Purchaser and Seller is/are executing this Agreement in his/their capacity as representative of such party and not individually and, therefore, shall have no personal or individual liability of any kind in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by it.

10.17. Rules of Construction. The following rules shall apply to the construction and interpretation of this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated by the context:

(a) Singular words shall connote the plural number as well as the singular and vice versa, and the masculine shall include the feminine and the neuter.

(b) All references herein to particular articles, sections, subsections, clauses or exhibits are references to articles, sections, subsections, clauses or exhibits of this Agreement.

(c) The table of contents and headings contained herein are solely for convenience of reference and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.

(d) Each party hereto and its counsel have reviewed and revised (or requested revisions of) this Agreement and have participated in the preparation of this Agreement, and therefore any usual rules of construction requiring that ambiguities are to be resolved against a particular party shall not be applicable in the construction and interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits hereto.

10.18. No Recording. Neither this Agreement nor any memorandum hereof, or any other instrument intended to give notice hereof (or which actually gives notice hereof) shall be recorded.

10.19. Facsimile Signatures. The execution of this Agreement and all notices given hereunder and all amendments hereto, may be effected by facsimile signatures, all of which shall be treated as originals; provided, however, that the party receiving a document with a facsimile signature may, by notice to the other, require the prompt delivery of an original signature to evidence and confirm the delivery of the facsimile signature.

10.20. Effective Date. This Agreement shall be terminable by either Seller or Purchaser prior to the Effective Date. The “Effective Date” shall mean the first date on which the following shall have occurred: (i) Purchaser and Seller shall have executed this Agreement, and (ii) Escrow Agent shall have acknowledged receipt of this Agreement fully executed by Seller and Purchaser.

10.21. Survival. The provisions of this Article X shall survive Closing. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement and except as expressly provided in Section 10.12 hereof, all of the representations and warranties and covenants of the parties contained in this Agreement

8665334v.12

shall not survive the Closing and shall merge into the Closing Documents. Upon Closing, any breach or default of any such representations or warranties or covenants that do not expressly survive the Closing, whether known or unknown, shall be deemed waived by the Closing.

CERTIFICATE OF NON-FOREIGN STATUS


TO:	____________________________________________


FROM:	____________________________________________ (“Seller”)

Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that a transferee of a U.S. real property interest must withhold tax if the transferor is a foreign person. To inform the transferee that withholding of tax is not required upon the disposition of a U.S. real property interest by Seller, the undersigned hereby certifies the following on behalf of Seller:

(a) Seller is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, foreign estate or foreign person (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations);

(b) Seller’s U.S. employer identification number is ______________________; and

Seller understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by transferee and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.
