REAL PROPERTY MATTERS

(a) Within forty-five (45) days of the date of this Agreement, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser and Purchaser’s counsel, with respect to each parcel of Owned Real Property and each Leased Real Property used for the Branches identified as leased on Exhibit 1.1(b): (a) a title commitment (including all documents, instruments or agreements evidencing or creating the exceptions to, or Encumbrances on, title referenced in such commitment) (the “Commitments”) issued by the Title Insurer and (b) any ALTA minimum standards detail land title survey of each of the Branches and each parcel of Real Property that Seller has been able to locate in its files and records, prepared and certified as to all matters shown thereon by a surveyor licensed by the respective State where the Real Property is located (together with any new ALTA survey of the Real Property ordered by Purchaser, the “Surveys”). The Surveys shall include a notation stating whether any portion of the Real Property is located in a 100-year flood plain, flood-prone area or special flood hazard and shall show the specific location of any portions of such Real Property that may be located in any such flood areas. The Commitments shall reflect that Seller has good and indefeasible title or leasehold interest in and to the Real Property, subject only to (x) matters that do not materially and adversely affect the use of the Real Property as a commercial bank branch office (the “Permitted Encumbrances”), and (y) other matters of record in the respective County in which the Real Property is located, and routine matters to be satisfied as part of the conveyance of the Real Property. The costs of obtaining the Commitments and the Surveys shall be borne equally by Seller and Purchaser. If any Commitment contains any exceptions other than Permitted Encumbrances, Seller shall make a good faith effort to cure, or cause the Title Insurer to omit, such exceptions prior to the Closing.

(b) Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the recordation of a memorandum of lease for each Branch Lease identified on Exhibit 1.1(b) as currently not having a memorandum of lease of record; provided, however, that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to commence any litigation or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party to arrange such recordation; and provided, further, that Seller shall not be obligated to incur any monetary obligations or expenditures to the parties whose consent or assistance is required in connection with the utilization of its reasonable best efforts to arrange for such recordation (for the avoidance of doubt, it being agreed that the failure of Seller arrange for any such recordation with respect to a particular Branch Leases, despite the use of such reasonable best efforts, shall not cause the condition set forth in Section 10.1(d) to not be satisfied).

3.2 Title Insurance Policy. (a) Seller shall cause the Title Insurer to update the Commitments as of the Business Day prior to the Closing Date. In the event that the updated Commitments disclose any defect not included in the original Commitments, the procedure set forth in the final sentence of Section 3.1 herein shall apply.

(b) Seller and Purchaser shall cause the Title Insurer, as soon as practicable after the Closing, to issue an Owner’s or Leasehold Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance, as applicable (each, a “Title Policy” and collectively, the “Title Insurance”), to Purchaser covering the Owned Real Property and each Leased Real Property identified on Exhibit 1.1(b) as having a memorandum of lease of record in the amount equal to the Net Book Value of the relevant Real Property as included in the calculation of the Purchase Price. Such policies shall guarantee Purchaser’s title to the relevant Real Property to be good and indefeasible, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances. The costs of obtaining the Title Insurance shall be borne equally by Seller and Purchaser.

3.3 Inspection of Real Property. Within forty five (45) calendar days after the date of this Agreement, Purchaser may, at its sole cost and expense, undertake such physical inspections and examinations of the Owned Real Property and the facilities subject to Branch Leases (subject to any landlord’s approval or consent as may be required and prior reasonable notice to Seller of the date and time of any such inspections and examinations), including such inspections of the buildings thereon, as Purchaser reasonably deems necessary or appropriate, which shall be conducted in a manner and at times so as to not disrupt Seller’s business operations of the Branches. The cost of any such inspections and examinations shall solely be the responsibility of Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall not conduct any invasive testing or Phase II Environmental Site Assessment on any Owned Real Property or facilities subject to Branch Leases, without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent will not unreasonably be withheld or delayed) and coordinating the scope of such work with Seller or Seller’s consultants, as applicable. If reasonably necessary for proper conduct and completion of on-site sampling for a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, or Baseline Environmental Assessment as defined under the laws of the State of Indiana, this time period shall be subject to reasonable extensions, not to exceed sixty (60) calendar days following the expiration of the initial forty five (45) calendar day period. Purchaser shall maintain liability insurance and shall indemnify Seller for any and all Losses incurred by Seller, any of its Affiliates and/or third parties while Purchaser and its agents are performing any inspections under this Section 3.3. In the event of any damage to any of the Branches, Seller shall be entitled to require Purchaser to engage workmen reasonably acceptable to Seller to restore any such damage to the same condition as the Branches were in prior to the inspection.

3.4 Objections and Remedies. (a) If Purchaser shall discover a Material Defect as a result of Purchaser’s inspections and examinations undertaken in accordance with Section 3.3, Purchaser shall give Seller written notice as soon as possible (but in no event later than the expiration of the forty five (45)-calendar day period, or the additional sixty (60)-calendar day period if subject to an extension for testing as described in Section 3.3) describing, in reasonable detail, the facts or conditions constituting such Material Defect and the measures which Purchaser reasonably believes are necessary to correct such Material Defect (to be read for this purpose without reference to the $50,000 threshold). With regard to the facilities subject to Branch Leases, Purchaser and Seller understand that conducting the inspections and effecting the cure of a Material Defect, if any, may require the action or the consent of the lessor and the parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause such action to be taken or to obtain such consent.

(b) If Seller does not elect to cure any such Material Defect or is unable to cure such Material Defect to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction at least ten (10) calendar days prior to the Closing, and Purchaser does not elect to waive such Material Defect, Purchaser may (as its sole remedy) exclude such Owned Real Property or the facility subject to applicable Branch Lease from this Agreement (“Excluded Branch”) by giving Seller written notice. In the event that a Branch becomes an Excluded Branch in accordance with this Section 3.4(b), Section 3.4(c) or Section 8.4(c), the real property associated with the Excluded Branch shall no longer be deemed to be “Owned Real Property” and the lease associated with the Excluded Branch shall no longer be deemed to be a “Branch Lease” (and the consideration to be paid by Purchaser shall be reduced by the Net Book Value of the real property or lease associated with the Excluded Branch as included in the calculation of the Purchase Price); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser shall remain obligated to, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (i) purchase all other Assets and assume all other Assumed Liabilities associated with the Excluded Branch (other than the Personal Property and the Safe Deposit Agreements (and the associated safe deposit boxes)) and (ii) hire all Branch Employees related to the Excluded Branch.

(c) If any Commitments identify any Lien Defect, Seller shall make a good faith effort to cure such Lien Defect to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction (or otherwise cause the Title Insurer to insure over or delete such Lien Defect in the Title Policy) on, or prior to, the Closing Date. If Seller (i) does not cure any such Lien Defect to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction (or otherwise cause the Title Insurer to insure over or delete such Lien Defect in the Title Policy) prior to the Closing, and Purchaser does not elect to waive such Lien Defect, or (ii) is unable to deliver insurable fee simple title (in the case of each of the Owned Real Properties) or an insurable leasehold interest (in the case of each of the Leased Real Properties used for the Branches identified as having a memorandum of lease of record on Exhibit 1.1(b)) subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, then in either such events described in the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii), Purchaser may (as its sole remedy) elect to cause such Owned Real Property or the facility subject to applicable Branch Lease to be an Excluded Branch for all purposes of this Agreement (including Section 3.4(b)).

A party proposing to send or publish any notice or communication pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall furnish to the other party a copy of the proposed form of such notice or communication at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the proposed date of the first mailing, posting, or other dissemination thereof to customers, and shall not unreasonably refuse to amend such notice to incorporate any changes that the other such party proposes as necessary to comply with applicable law.

(a) Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain from lessors under Branch Leases and Equipment Leases and counterparties under Assumed Contracts and any other parties whose consent is required in order to assign or transfer any Asset or Deposit to Purchaser on the Closing Date, any required consents to such assignment or transfer to Purchaser on the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the case of any Branch Lease or Equipment Lease, if any consent set forth in this Section 8.4(a) is not obtained, the parties shall negotiate in good faith and Seller and Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to make alternative arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser that provide Purchaser, to the extent reasonably possible, the benefits and burdens of the properties subject to Branch Leases and Equipment Leases in a manner that does not violate the applicable Branch Lease or Equipment Lease (for the same cost as would have applied if the relevant consent had been obtained); provided, further, that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to commence any litigation or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party to obtain such authorizations, approvals, consents, negative clearances or waivers; and provided, further, that Seller shall not be obligated to incur any monetary obligations or expenditures to the parties whose consent is requested in connection with the utilization of its reasonable best efforts to obtain any such required consents (for the avoidance of doubt, it being agreed that the failure of the parties to mutually agree on any such alternative arrangement with respect to a particular Branch Lease or Equipment Lease, despite such good faith negotiations and the use of such reasonable best efforts, shall not cause the condition set forth in Section 10.1(d) to not be satisfied). If any alternative arrangement is implemented between Seller and Purchaser at or prior to the Closing, the parties shall continue after the Closing to exercise reasonable best efforts to obtain the related consents that could not be obtained prior to the Closing, and, if such a consent is obtained, Seller shall assign to Purchaser the applicable Branch Lease or Equipment Lease pursuant to the terms of this Agreement applicable to leases assigned at Closing, and the parties shall restructure the applicable alternative arrangement.

(b) Unless otherwise directed by Purchaser, Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to procure estoppel certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit 8.4(b)-1 attached hereto, from each lessor under Branch Leases, and in the form of Exhibit 8.4(b)-2 from each subtenant under Tenant Leases, which certificates shall be at Seller’s sole expense (“Estoppel Certificates”). In the case of any Branch Lease, if any estoppel certificate as set forth in this Section 8.4(b) is not obtained, the Assets and Assumed Liabilities associated with the subject Branch shall be transferred to Purchaser and the parties shall negotiate in good faith and Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to make alternative arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser with respect to such Branch Lease, provided, further, that neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be obligated to incur any monetary obligations or expenditures to lessors or subtenants in connection with obtaining such estoppel certificates.

(c) In the event that Seller is unable to obtain the necessary consent with respect to any Branch Lease and Seller and Purchaser are unable to negotiate an alternative arrangement as described in Section 8.4(a), Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of its decision whether to exclude such Real Property from this Agreement and for such Real Property to be considered an Excluded Branch for purposes of this Agreement.

8.5 Efforts to Consummate; Further Assurances. (a) Purchaser and Seller agree to use reasonable best efforts to satisfy or cause to be satisfied as soon as practicable their respective obligations hereunder and the conditions precedent to the Closing.

(b) From time to time following the Closing, at Purchaser’s request and sole expense, Seller will duly execute and deliver such assignments, bills of sale, deeds, acknowledgments and other instruments of conveyance and transfer as shall be necessary or appropriate to vest in Purchaser the full legal and equitable title to the Assets and the Assumed Liabilities.

(c) Subject to Section 5.3, on and after the Closing Date, each party will promptly deliver to the other, at such other party’s expense, all mail and other communications properly addressable or deliverable to the other as a consequence of the P&A Transaction; and without limitation of the foregoing, on and after the Closing Date, Seller shall promptly forward any mail, communications or other material relating to the Deposits or the Assets transferred on the Closing Date, including that portion of any IRS “B” tapes that relates to such Deposits, to such employees of Purchaser at such addresses as may from time to time be specified by Purchaser in writing.

(d) Purchaser hereby gives Seller further assurances that in the event that, following the Closing Date, Purchaser receives or otherwise possesses any asset or liability of Seller that the parties reasonably agree is not an Asset or an Assumed Liability, Purchaser shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver all such instruments as may be reasonably necessary to effectively vest in Seller title to such asset or liability, as is reasonably agreed to by each party; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the terms of this Section 8.5(d) are not intended to limit or otherwise modify in any way the parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement. Purchaser agrees that it shall not transfer, assign, extend, renew or amend any Branch Lease unless the landlord under such Branch Lease shall have released Seller from any liability under or relating to such Branch Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may exercise any renewal option of any Branch Lease that is solely within the right of the tenant thereunder to exercise and, prior to any such renewal exercise, Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the landlord under such Branch Lease to release Seller from any liability under or relating to such Branch Lease (it being agreed that Purchaser shall not be obligated to incur any monetary obligations or expenditure or to otherwise provide additional security to the landlord in order to obtain such release in connection with such renewal exercise).

(e) Seller hereby gives Purchaser further assurances that in the event that, following the Closing Date, Seller possesses any asset or liability of Seller that the parties reasonably agree is an Asset or an Assumed Liability Seller shall, promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver all such instruments as may be reasonably necessary to effectively vest in Purchaser title to such asset or liability, as is reasonably agreed to by each party; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the terms of this Section 8.5(e) are not intended to limit or otherwise modify in any way the parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement.

(f) In the event any transfer of an asset or liability of Seller is undertaken pursuant to Section 8.5(d) or Section 8.5(e), the parties shall, as between themselves, treat any such asset or liability as having been or not been transferred, as the case may be, as of the Closing with an appropriate adjustment reflected in the Final Closing Statement as reasonably agreed to by the parties.

(g) Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall provide notice to Purchaser to the extent that Seller has knowledge of any facts or circumstances that exist that would provide for a basis for termination of any Branch Employee under existing personnel policies and practices of Seller then in effect.

8.6 Solicitation of Accounts; Non-Solicitation. (a) For the two (2) year period following the Closing Date, Seller agrees that it will not (i) use information contained in Branch customer information files or Records that relates to the Assets and Assumed Liabilities that are to be assumed by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement to solicit financial services business, including deposits, loans and other financial products, of the type offered through the Branches as of the date hereof, or (ii) establish or maintain any branch banking office in the counties listed on Exhibit 8.6(a) serving the mass retail and small commercial banking markets of the type conducted by Seller as of the date hereof; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8.6(a) shall not prohibit or in any way limit Seller or any of its Affiliates, after the Closing Date, from (1) owning and operating ATMs that are not attached to or affiliated with a branch banking office, or (2) offering products and services to customers as part of the businesses of Seller and its Affiliates that are not being sold hereunder, including the conduct of the global wealth, investment management and home loans businesses of Seller or its Affiliates, so long as such activities are not conducted through the use of the information described in the preceding clause (i). Except as set forth in this Section 8.6(a), nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to at any time prohibit or otherwise limit Seller or any of its Affiliates from soliciting financial services or any other businesses, including deposits, loans and other financial products.

(b) Prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser agrees that it will not attempt to solicit Branch customers through advertising nor transact its business in a way intended to induce such customers to close any account and open accounts directly with Purchaser.

(c) For a period of two (2) years following the Closing Date, Seller will not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, solicit for employment any Transferred Employee; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.6(c) shall be deemed to prohibit Seller or its Affiliates from (i) making general solicitations not targeted at Transferred Employees (including job announcements in newspapers and industry publications or on the Internet), (ii) soliciting any Transferred Employee whose employment is terminated by Purchaser prior to Seller, or any of its Affiliates, soliciting such Transferred Employee, (iii) soliciting any Transferred Employee who has not been employed by Purchaser or its Affiliates during the six (6) month period prior to the solicitation not otherwise permitted hereunder or (iv) using employee search firms, so long as such employee search firms are not instructed to and do not engage in targeted solicitations of Transferred Employees.

(d) If any provision or part of this Section 8.6 is held by a court or other authority of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court or authority making such determination will have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision or to delete specific words or phrases as necessary (but only to the minimum extent necessary) to cause such provision or part to be valid and enforceable. If such court or authority does not have the legal authority to take the actions described in the preceding sentence, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith a modified provision that would, in so far as possible, reflect the original intent of this Section 8.6 without violating applicable law.

8.7 Insurance. Seller will maintain in effect until the Closing Date all casualty and public liability policies relating to the Branches and maintained by Seller on the date hereof or procure comparable replacement coverage and maintain such policies or replacement coverage in effect until the Closing. Purchaser shall provide all casualty and public liability insurance for the Branches after the Closing. In the event of any material damage, destruction or condemnation affecting Real Property between the date hereof and the time of the Closing, Purchaser shall have the right to exclude any Real Property so affected from the Assets to be acquired, require Seller to take reasonable steps to repair or replace the damaged or destroyed property, or require Seller to deliver to Purchaser any insurance proceeds and other payments, to the extent of the fair market value or the replacement cost of the Real Property, received by Seller as a result thereof unless, in the case of damage or destruction, Seller has repaired or replaced the damaged or destroyed property.

(b) by Purchaser if (i) at the time of such termination any of the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement shall not be true and correct to the extent that the condition set forth in Section 10.1(c) cannot be satisfied, or (ii) there shall have been any material breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Seller hereunder to the extent that the condition set forth in Section 10.1(d) cannot be satisfied, and, in the case of (i) or (ii), such breach or failure is not or cannot be remedied by Seller within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of notice in writing from Purchaser specifying the nature of such breach or failure and requesting that it be remedied; provided that Purchaser may not terminate this Agreement based upon the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 10.1(c) or Section 10.1(d) to be satisfied if such failure was caused by Purchaser’s breach of this Agreement or failure to act in good faith or Purchaser’s or any of its representative’s failure to use reasonable best efforts to cause the Closing to occur;

(c) by Seller, if (i) at the time of such termination any of the representations and warranties of Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall not be true and correct to the extent that the condition set forth in Section 10.2(c) cannot be satisfied, or (ii) there shall have been any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Purchaser hereunder to the extent that the condition set forth in Section 10.2(d) cannot be satisfied, and, in the case of (i) or (ii), such breach or failure is not or cannot be remedied by Purchaser within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of notice in writing from Seller specifying the nature of such breach or failure and requesting that it be remedied; provided that Seller may not terminate this Agreement based upon the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 10.2(c) or Section 10.2(d) to be satisfied if such failure was caused by Seller’s or any of its representative’s failure to act in good faith or Seller’s breach of this Agreement or failure to use reasonable best efforts to cause the Closing to occur;

(d) by Seller or Purchaser, in the event the Closing has not occurred by the date that is nine (9) months after the date of this Agreement, unless the failure to so consummate is due to a breach of this Agreement by the party seeking to terminate; or

(e) by either Seller or Purchaser, if any governmental agencies or authorities that must grant a Regulatory Approval has denied approval of the P&A Transaction and such denial has become final and nonappealable or any governmental agency or authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final and nonappealable order permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the P&A Transaction.

11.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement and abandonment of the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to Section 11.1, no party hereto (or any of its directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates) shall have any liability or further obligation to any other party, except that neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of any willful breach of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 12.

INDEMNIFICATION

12.1 Indemnification. (a) Subject to Section 13.1, after the Closing, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by Purchaser, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against any and all Losses asserted against or incurred by Purchaser to the extent arising out of or resulting from the following:

(i)

any breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement (disregarding, in each case other than in the case of Section 6.15, for purposes of determining the amount of any Loss (but not for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach), any qualification on any such representation or warranty as to “materiality,” “in all material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar materiality qualifications);

(ii)

any breach of any covenant or agreement to be performed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement;

(iii)

any Excluded Taxes; or

(iv)

any Excluded Liability.

(b) Subject to Section 13.1, after the Closing, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by Seller, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against any and all Losses asserted against or incurred by Seller to the extent arising out of or resulting from the following:

(i)

any breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement (disregarding, in each case, for purposes of determining the amount of any Loss (but not for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach), any qualification on any such representation or warranty as to “materiality,” “in all material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar materiality qualifications);

(ii)

any breach of any covenant or agreement to be performed by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement; or

(iii)

the Assumed Liabilities or any responsibility, obligation, duty, legal action, administrative or judicial proceeding, claim, penalty or liability arising out of Purchaser’s ownership and operation from and after the Closing of the business represented by the Branches, the Assets or the Assumed Liabilities.

(c) To exercise its indemnification rights under this Section 12.1 as a result of the assertion against it of any claim or potential liability for which indemnification is provided, the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party of the assertion of such claim, discovery of any such potential liability or the commencement of any action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder (including, with respect to claims arising from a breach of representation or warranty made in Article 9, the commencement of an audit, administrative investigation or judicial proceeding by any governmental authority); provided, however, that, subject to the Survival Periods set forth in Section 13.1(a), any delay or failure by the indemnified party to give notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent, if at all, that the indemnifying party is actually and materially prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure. The indemnified party shall advise the indemnifying party of all facts relating to such assertion within the knowledge of the indemnified party, and shall afford the indemnifying party the opportunity, at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense, to defend against such claims for liability. In any such action or proceeding, the indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at its own expense unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party mutually agree to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such suit, action, or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, and in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party, representation of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party by the same counsel would be inadvisable due to actual or potential differing defenses or conflicts of interests between them.

(d) Neither party to this Agreement shall settle, compromise, discharge or consent to an entry of judgment with respect to a claim or liability subject to indemnification under this Article 12 without the other party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that the indemnifying party may agree without the prior written consent of the indemnified party to any settlement, compromise, discharge or consent to an entry of judgment in each case that by its terms (i) obligates the indemnifying party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such claim and that unconditionally releases the indemnified party and its Affiliates from all liability or obligation in connection with such claim and (ii) does not impose injunctive or other non-monetary equitable relief against the indemnified party or its Affiliates, or their respective businesses.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, an indemnifying party shall not be liable under Section 12.1(a)(i) or Section 12.1(b)(i) for any Losses sustained by the indemnified party unless and until the aggregate amount of all indemnifiable Losses sustained by the indemnified party shall exceed $150,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the indemnifying party shall provide indemnification hereunder in respect of all such indemnifiable Losses in excess of the Deductible; provided, however, that the maximum aggregate amount of indemnification payments payable by Seller pursuant to Section 12.1(a)(i) or by Purchaser pursuant to Section 12.1(b)(i), as applicable, shall be $7,000,000. In no event shall either party hereto be entitled to consequential or punitive damages or damages for lost profits in any action relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a third party claim includes or would reasonably be expected to include both a claim for Taxes that are Assumed Liabilities pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(vii) (“Purchaser Taxes”) and a claim for Taxes that are not Assumed Liabilities pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(vii) (“Seller Taxes”), and such claim for Seller Taxes is not separable from such a claim for Purchaser Taxes, Purchaser (if the claim for Purchaser Taxes exceeds or reasonably would be expected to exceed in amount the claim for Seller Taxes) or otherwise Seller (Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, the “Controlling Party”) shall be entitled to control the defense of such third party claim (such third party claim, a “Tax Claim”). In such case, the other party (Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, the “Non-Controlling Party”) shall be entitled to participate fully (at the Non-Controlling Party’s sole expense) in the conduct of such Tax Claim and the Controlling Party shall not settle such Tax Claim without the consent of such Non-Controlling Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The costs and expenses of conducting the defense of such Tax Claim shall be reasonably apportioned based on the relative amounts of the Tax Claim that are Seller Taxes and that are Purchaser Taxes.

(g) Except as otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any comparable provision of state, local or foreign Law), Seller, Purchaser, and their respective Affiliates shall treat any and all payments under this Article 12 as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

(h) In connection with any claim for indemnification under this Article 12, the amount that any indemnifying party is or may be required to pay to any indemnified party shall be reduced (retroactively, if necessary) by the amounts recovered by the indemnified party under third party insurance policies or third party indemnification obligations, net of any deductible or any other expense incurred by the party entitled to indemnification in obtaining such recovery. If an indemnified party shall have received payment from the indemnifying party for a Loss and subsequently recovers amounts under third party insurance policies or third party indemnification obligations, then the indemnified party shall promptly refund to the indemnifying party a sum equal to the amount of such recovered amounts, net of any deductible or any other expense incurred by the party entitled to indemnification in obtaining such recovery.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the Deeds, an indemnifying party shall not be liable under any of the Deeds to the extent the indemnified party has not first sought to recover for such Losses under the Title Policies prior to pursuing an indemnifying party under any of the Deeds. To the extent an indemnified party does not recover for such the Loss under the Title Policies, it may then pursue recovery for any Loss against an indemnifying party hereunder.

(j) An indemnified party shall use reasonable best efforts to mitigate any claim or liability that such indemnified party asserts under this Article 12. In the event that an indemnified party shall fail to use such reasonable best efforts to mitigate any claim or liability, then notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the indemnifying party shall not be required to indemnify any indemnified party for any portion of a Loss that could reasonably be expected to have been avoided if the indemnified party had made such efforts.

12.2 Exclusivity. After the Closing, except as expressly set forth in Sections 2.5, 5.8 and 9.2, and except in the case of common law fraud in connection with entering into this Agreement, this Article 12 will provide the exclusive remedy for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or other agreement or other claim arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that it is understood and agree that the foregoing shall not prevent a party from obtaining specific performance, injunctive relief or any other available non-monetary equitable remedy.

12.3 AS-IS Sale; Waiver of Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser acknowledges that the Assets and Assumed Liabilities are being sold and accepted on an “AS-IS-WHERE-IS” basis, and are being accepted without any representation or warranty. As part of Purchaser’s agreement to purchase and accept the Assets and Assumed Liabilities AS-IS-WHERE-IS, and not as a limitation on such agreement, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SELLER HEREBY DISCLAIMS AND PURCHASER HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND RELEASES ANY AND ALL ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL RIGHTS PURCHASER MIGHT HAVE AGAINST SELLER OR ANY PERSON DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY CONTROLLING SELLER REGARDING ANY FORM OF WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF ANY KIND OR TYPE, RELATING TO THE ASSETS AND ASSUMED LIABILITIES INCLUDING THE LOANS AND/OR THE COLLATERAL THEREFOR EXCEPT THOSE SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT. SUCH WAIVER AND RELEASE IS, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ABSOLUTE, COMPLETE, TOTAL AND UNLIMITED IN EVERY WAY. SUCH WAIVER AND RELEASE INCLUDES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, A WAIVER AND RELEASE OF EXPRESS WARRANTIES (EXCEPT THOSE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OTHERWISE SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT), IMPLIED WARRANTIES, WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, WARRANTIES OF HABITABILITY, STRICT LIABILITY RIGHTS AND CLAIMS OF EVERY KIND AND TYPE, INCLUDING CLAIMS REGARDING DEFECTS WHICH WERE NOT OR ARE NOT DISCOVERABLE, ALL OTHER EXTANT OR LATER CREATED OR CONCEIVED OF STRICT LIABILITY OR STRICT LIABILITY TYPE CLAIMS AND RIGHTS.

ARTICLE 13.

MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Survival. (a) The parties’ respective representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive until the eighteenth (18th) month anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that (i) each of the representations and warranties of parties set forth in Sections 6.1 and 7.1 shall survive until the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Closing Date, and (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.10 shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and (iii) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.12 shall survive until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, and thereafter neither party may claim any Loss in relation to a breach thereof (each such specified period, a “Survival Period”); provided, however, that the claims set forth in any claim for indemnity made by an indemnified party on or prior to the applicable Survival Period shall survive until such claim is finally resolved. The agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing until performed in full or the obligation to so perform shall have expired.

(b) No claim based on any breach of any representation or warranty shall be valid or made unless notice with respect thereto is given to the indemnifying party in accordance with this Agreement.

13.2 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations of either party may be assigned by either party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party, and any purported assignment in contravention of this Section 13.2 shall be void.

13.3 Binding Effect. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

13.4 Public Notice. Prior to the Closing Date, neither Purchaser nor Seller shall make or cause to be made any press release for general circulation, public announcement or disclosure or issue any notice or general communication to employees or customers with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (each, a “Public Notice”) without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Purchaser and Seller each agree that, without the other party’s prior written consent, it shall not release or disclose any of the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated herein to any other Person (other than any bank Regulatory Authority). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may make a Public Notice as, based on the advice of its counsel, may be required by law or as necessary to obtain the Regulatory Approvals. Except with respect to a Public Notice issued by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in compliance with the terms of this Section 13.4 that announces the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, no Public Notice issued by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates shall reference the name of Seller or any of its Affiliates without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent Seller may withhold, condition or delay in its sole discretion).

13.9 Entire Agreement; Amendment.

(b) This Agreement may not be amended or supplemented in any manner except by mutual agreement of the parties and as set forth in a writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest.
