Sellers hereby acknowledge and agree that Purchaser expressly reserves and may freely exercise all rights and remedies available to it under Section 13.2 of this Agreement following any Seller’s amendment or supplement of the schedules and exhibits to this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the representations and warranties relating to a Rent Roll as set forth in Section 3.1(k) and the status of the tenants thereunder were true and correct in all material respects as of the Effective Date, no change in circumstances or status of such tenants (e.g., defaults, bankruptcies, below market status or other adverse matters relating to such tenants or a tenant’s exercise following the Effective Date of any Lease termination rights not caused by the acts or omissions of any Seller) occurring after the Effective Date shall permit Purchaser to terminate this Agreement or constitute grounds for Purchaser’s failure to close or otherwise constitute a breach of any representation or warranty by any Seller.

(i) “Representation Conditions” shall mean that all representations or warranties of such Seller were true, correct and complete in all material respects when made.

(ii) “Changed Condition Threshold” shall mean a Changed Condition (as hereinafter defined) whose cost of cure will exceed $500,000.00 for an individual Property or the Properties or Property Group collectively, as determined by a third party that is mutually acceptable to the parties in their commercially reasonable discretion.

(d) If, after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing Date, any Seller’s representations or warranties become untrue, inaccurate or incorrect (a “Changed Condition”), such Seller shall give Purchaser written notice thereof within five (5) Business Days (but, in any event, prior to Closing) of such Seller’s Knowledge of the Changed Condition (a “Changed Condition Notice”).

(e) If the Representation Conditions have been satisfied, but the Changed Condition does not meet the Changed Condition Threshold, such Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Changed Condition to be cured at or prior to Closing. In the event that, despite commercially reasonable efforts, such Seller is unable to cure the Changed Condition by Closing, the Sellers shall not be in default hereunder, but Purchaser shall be entitled to a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing equal to the estimated remaining cost to cure the Changed Condition, which shall be determined by a third party that is mutually acceptable to the parties in their commercially reasonable discretion.

(f) If the Representation Conditions have been satisfied and the Changed Condition meets or exceeds the Changed Condition Threshold, within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of the Changed Condition Notice, such Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing of whether such Seller (i) elects to cure the Changed Condition by Closing, or (ii) declines to cure the Changed Condition. If Seller elects to cure the Changed Condition by Closing pursuant to this Section 3.2(f), then the Purchaser shall be obligated to close on the Properties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and Seller shall be obligated to cure the Changed Condition at or prior to Closing. If such Seller does not timely make an election under this subsection (f), such Seller shall be deemed to have declined to cure the Changed Condition. If such Seller declines to cure the Changed Condition, or is deemed to have declined to do so, then Purchaser shall have five (5) Business Days thereafter, to elect, as its sole and exclusive remedy (and the Closing shall be automatically extended to account for such five (5) Business Day period, if necessary), in its sole and absolute discretion, by written notice to the Sellers within said five (5) Business Day period, (x) to continue with the purchase of the Property without adjustment of the Purchase Price, or (y) to terminate this Agreement by providing written notice thereof to the Sellers. If Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.2(f), the Earnest Money shall be immediately returned to Purchaser and thereafter the parties shall be released from further liability or obligation hereunder, except for those matters which specifically survive the termination hereof. If Purchaser fails to notify the Sellers and Escrow Agent of its election to terminate this Agreement within said five (5) Business Day time period provided above, Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted the Changed Condition and to have elected to purchase the Property without adjustment to the Purchase Price. If such Seller elects to cure the Changed Condition by Closing, but thereafter fails to do so, Sellers shall be in material default under this Agreement and all remedies set forth in Section 13.2 shall be available to Purchaser due to such default.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, in the event a representation or warranty of any Seller is untrue, incorrect or incomplete in any material respect when made, or becomes untrue, incorrect or incomplete in any material respect on or after the Effective Date due to a breach of any of the Sellers’ obligations or covenants under this Agreement, then the Sellers shall be in default under this Agreement (subject to any applicable notice and cure rights), and all remedies set forth in Section 13.2 shall be available to Purchaser.

SECTION 3.3 Covenants of Sellers Prior to Closing.

(a) From the Effective Date until the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement (or such earlier date as set forth below), each Seller or such Seller’s agents shall:

(i) Operation. Operate and maintain such Seller’s Property in a manner generally consistent with such Seller’s past practices with respect to such Property (including entering into new Leases), except that such Seller shall not be required to make any capital improvements to such Real Property.

(ii) Notices. Notify Purchaser promptly upon receipt of written notices of (i) violation, litigation, arbitration proceeding or administrative hearing (including condemnation) before any Governmental Authority which affects such Seller or such Seller’s Property, and is instituted after the Effective Date; (ii) default with respect to any Contract; (iii) litigation commenced or threatened in writing against such Seller or such Seller’s Property; (iv) litigation commenced or threatened in writing by such Seller (other than residential tenant eviction proceedings); and (v) any other material written notice or communication received by such Seller which could have a material effect on the operation of Seller’s Property or on the transactions contemplated under this Agreement.

(iii) Insurance. Keep such Seller’s Property insured against fire and other hazards in such amounts and under such terms as are consistent with such Seller’s existing insurance program, provided that Seller may make adjustments in such Seller’s insurance coverage for the Property which are consistent with Sellers’ Affiliates’ general insurance program for apartment properties as in effect from time to time.

(iv) Performance Under Leases. Perform, or cause its agents to perform, in all material respects, all material obligations of landlord or lessor under the Leases.

(v) Leasing Activity. Except for Leases or amendments to Leases entered into pursuant to renewal notices mailed prior to the Effective Date, unless Purchaser agrees otherwise in writing, any new leases or renewals of existing leases for apartment units entered into by Sellers after the Effective Date until the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement shall be on such Seller’s standard apartment lease form for its Property, and shall be for terms of no less than six (6) months and no more than thirteen (13) months. In all cases, Sellers shall retain the discretion to set rent rates, concessions and other terms of occupancy consistent with then-extant market conditions for such Property. After the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall have the right to participate in a weekly call with each Seller and its property manager to discuss operation of the Properties, which shall be scheduled by such Seller at the request of Purchaser, and for the avoidance of doubt shall be a separate call from such Seller’s operation calls with its property manager.

(vi) Contracts. Comply with all obligations of such Seller under the Contracts, and, unless Purchaser agrees otherwise in writing, not enter into any service or other new Contract (or renew any existing Contract) that will be binding on Purchaser or any Property after Closing, other than Contracts necessary for emergency purposes in such Seller’s commercially reasonable discretion.

(vii) Conveyances or Encumbrances of Property. Such Seller shall not sell, further pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer or dispose of all or any part of its Property (except for (i) such items of fixtures and tangible personal property as become obsolete or are disposed of in the ordinary course, and only if replaced by an item of like quality and functionality (unless the same is no longer necessary for the operation of such Property, as determined by Seller in its commercially reasonable discretion), and (ii) such other transfers and conveyances as are specifically permitted under this Agreement).

(viii) Updated Rent Roll. From time to time, upon written request by Purchaser (but in no event more often than once per week), such Seller shall provide to Purchaser an updated Rent Roll with respect to such Seller’s Property, which shall be in substantially the same format as the Rent Roll with respect to such Seller’s Property attached hereto as a portion of Schedule 3.1(k).

(ix) Property Changes. Not request or consent to any change, variance or other modification to the zoning, permits, entitlements or development incentives applicable to its Property, without Purchaser’s prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(x) Condition of Vacant Units. Make rent-ready all apartment units at its Property which become vacant five (5) or more Business Days prior to the Closing, or to credit Purchaser at Closing in the amount of $750.00 for each apartment unit at its Property which is vacant on the Closing Date, which was vacant five (5) or more Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and which has not been made rent-ready. For purposes of this paragraph, “rent-ready condition” shall mean the condition in which such Seller currently delivers vacant units to new tenants at its Property in such Seller’s ordinary course of business and operations, freshly painted and cleaned, with all appliances, fixtures, and equipment therein in good working order.

(xi) Intentionally deleted.

(xii) Legal Compliance. Not use or occupy, or knowingly allow the use or occupancy of, its Property in any manner which violates any governmental requirements or which constitutes waste or a public or private nuisance or which makes void, voidable or cancelable, or increases the premium of, any insurance then in force with respect thereto. Such Seller shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, in full force and effect all permits and licenses required to operate its Property and to execute Leases for its Property and collect rent thereunder.

(xiii) Intentionally deleted.

(xiv) Estoppels. Use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Purchaser any estoppels Purchaser may reasonably require in connection with the Permitted Exceptions (each individually an “Estoppel,” and collectively the “Estoppels”); provided, however, such Sellers shall not be obligated to incur any non de-minimis expense or fee to so obtain Estoppels other than may be required by the terms of the Permitted Exception or to obtain any Estoppels from residential tenants at its Property.

(xv) Alterations. After the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, not perform, nor permit the performance of, any material alterations, renovations or improvements to its Property without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Purchaser’s sole discretion, except for alterations or improvements required to ensure the safety of its Property (including improvements required for the cure of the Preston View Property Code Violations).

(xvi) Transition. Cooperate with Purchaser in transitioning ownership and management of its Property to Purchaser or Purchaser’s designee, including, without limitation, ensuring that all rents from and after the Closing Date received by such Seller are paid over to Purchaser or its designee.

(b) Existing Agreements. Such Seller shall terminate (or cause to be terminated) such Seller’s Existing Management Agreement at or prior to Closing.

(c) Assumed Contracts. If Purchaser delivers a written notice of objection to any Contract prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then, to the extent a termination right in favor of the applicable Seller is provided for in such Contract, or if such Contract does not prohibit termination, the applicable Seller shall cause its Property Manager to provide a notice of termination within two (2) Business Days of the expiration of the Due Diligence Period to the vendor thereunder with respect to each such Contract to which Purchaser has timely objected (collectively, the “Objectionable Contracts”); provided, however, that (i) Purchaser may not object to any of the Contracts marked as “must assume” on Schedules 3.1(j)-1 through 3.1(j)-4 and shall assume the same at Closing pursuant to the applicable Bill of Sale and Assignment; (ii) no Seller shall have any obligation to terminate any Contract which by its terms is not terminable or which cannot be terminated without payment of an express termination fee or penalty, unless Purchaser agrees in writing to pay such termination fee or penalty; (iii) if the termination of any Objectionable Contract cannot be made effective upon the Closing Date (it being agreed and acknowledged that the Sellers shall not be obligated to pay any money to accomplish such termination), then such Objectionable Contract shall be assumed by Purchaser at Closing pursuant to the applicable Bill of Sale and Assignment (together with all Assumed Contracts with respect to the applicable Property that do not constitute Objectionable Contracts) for the remaining period of such Contract until its effective date of termination; and (iv) Purchaser shall be responsible for any termination fees payable with respect to the termination of any Objectionable Contracts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall not be required or entitled to assume any: (i) Contract that, by its terms, may not be assigned to and assumed by Purchaser without the consent of a third party, unless such third party’s written consent is actually obtained at or before Closing; or (ii) any Contract that is not reflected on Schedules 3.1(j)-1 through 3.1(j)-4. All Contracts that Purchaser is required to assume or elects to assume hereunder are collectively referred to herein as the “Assumed Contracts.”

(d) Anti-Terrorism Law. Such Seller shall take any actions that may be required to comply with the terms of the Anti-Bribery, Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Laws, as amended, any regulations promulgated under the foregoing Applicable Laws, any sanctions program administered by the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Property Control or Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, or any other Applicable Laws designed to combat corruption, bribery, terrorism, drug-trafficking or money laundering.

(e) Exclusivity. From the Effective Date until the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, none of the Sellers, nor any of their respective brokers, affiliates or agents, shall engage in discussions directly or through their respective brokers, agents or representatives or otherwise negotiate with any Person or party, other than with Purchaser, in connection with the sale of any of the Properties or any joint venture or similar transaction relating to any of the Properties.

(f) Leigh House TIC Transfer. Purchaser is advised that, at or prior to Closing, Leigh House Seller may convey ownership of the Leigh House Property to Leigh House Seller’s members or such members’ designees (individually, an “Additional Leigh House Seller,” and collectively, the “Additional Leigh House Sellers”), as undivided tenants in common (such transaction being the “Leigh House TIC Transfer”). Purchaser will allow Leigh House Seller to proceed with the Leigh House TIC Transfer during the term of this Agreement, provided that all of the following terms and conditions (collectively, the “Leigh House TIC Transfer Terms and Conditions”) are fully satisfied and complied with in all respects:

(i) Not later than July 1, 2019, Leigh House Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing of its desire to consummate the Leigh House TIC Transfer and shall submit to Purchaser the following:

(A) drafts of the following documents (collectively, the “Leigh House TIC Transfer Documents”), each of which shall be in form and content reasonably acceptable to Purchaser: (1) deeds, bills of sale and assignments to accomplish the Leigh House TIC Transfer; (2) if applicable, the forms of any assignments for Exchange purposes with respect to the Leigh House TIC Transfer; and (3) a joinder to this Agreement whereby each Additional Leigh House Seller becomes a party to this Agreement and jointly and severally liable with Leigh House Seller for its obligations hereunder.

(B) Secretary of State documents demonstrating that each of the Additional Leigh House Sellers has been formed and, if formed in a jurisdiction other than North Carolina, qualified to do business in the State of North Carolina.

(ii) Within five (5) Business Days after Leigh House Seller’s transmittal of the notice and deliveries under subsection (i) above, Leigh House Seller shall order any and all searches reasonably required by Purchaser or its lender for the Additional Leigh House Sellers, and shall promptly provide such parties with copies of the search results upon receipt, in all instances at Leigh House Seller’s sole cost.

(iii) At the closing of the Leigh House TIC Transfer and also at Closing, each of Leigh House Seller and the Additional Leigh House Sellers shall provide to the Title Company evidence of such entity’s power and authority to consummate the Leigh House TIC Transfer and the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

(iv) Leigh House Seller and each of the Additional Leigh House Sellers, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from all costs, obligations and liabilities arising directly or indirectly from the Leigh House TIC Transfer.

(v) From and after the closing date of the Leigh House TIC Transfer, Leigh House Seller and each of the Additional Leigh House Sellers shall be jointly and severally liable for all of Leigh House Seller’s covenants, representations, warranties, obligations and any other matters arising under or in connection with (A) this Agreement, including, without limitation, any liabilities of Leigh House Seller arising prior to and after the Closing Date, (B) Leigh House Seller’s Exchange, if applicable, and (C) the Leigh House TIC Transfer. For the avoidance of doubt, each Additional Leigh House Seller shall be deemed to have made all representations and warranties of Leigh House Seller as set forth in this Agreement, effective as of the closing date of the Leigh House TIC Transfer.

(vi) Not later than June 28, 2019, the Title Company shall have confirmed in writing that the Leigh House TIC Transfer has satisfied all Title Company requirements for such conveyance, and consequently that the Leigh House TIC Transfer will not prevent Title Company from being able to issue the Owner’s Policy for the Leigh House Property to Purchaser at Closing, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions and otherwise in the form required by this Agreement.

(vii) Any conveyance documents to be delivered with respect to the Leigh House Property under Section 6.2 hereof shall be delivered by the Leigh House Seller and each of the Additional Leigh House Sellers, jointly and severally. Further, each Additional Leigh House Seller shall join Leigh House Seller in the execution and delivery of Sellers’ Closing Certificate.

Leigh House Seller’s failure to comply with all of the Leigh House TIC Transfer Terms and Conditions shall constitute a material default hereunder whereby Purchaser shall be entitled to the remedies set forth in Section 13.2. The provisions of this Section 3.3(f) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Closing.

(g) Preston View Property Code Violations. Upon completing an inspection of the Preston View Property on June 12, 2019, the Morrisville Fire/Rescue Department issued a notice to Preston View Seller of certain fire and life safety violations at such Property (collectively, the “Preston View Property Code Violations”). A copy of such notice is attached hereto as Exhibit H. Preston View Seller shall promptly request an estimate from a licensed contractor to determine the scope of work and cost required to cure the Preston View Property Code Violations, and shall promptly provide a copy of such estimate to Purchaser upon receipt. The contractor performing the work, the scope of work and the contractor’s standard of performance shall all be subject to Purchaser’s review and approval in its commercially reasonable discretion. Preston View Seller covenants and agrees to make commercially reasonable, good faith efforts to cause the Preston View Property Code Violations to be cured at Preston View Seller’s cost prior to Closing, the parties hereby agreeing that cure of such violations shall be conclusively demonstrated by the Morrisville Fire/Rescue Department’s written acknowledgment that the Preston View Property Code Violations have been cured. In the event that the Preston View Property Code Violations have not been fully cured by the Closing despite Preston View Seller’s commercially reasonable efforts, Purchaser shall be entitled to a credit against the Allocable Purchase Price for the Preston View Property equal to the remaining cost of such cure, based upon the above cost estimate, net of any sums previously paid by Preston View Seller.

(h) Excluded Assets. Nothing in this Section 3.3 shall restrict any Seller’s rights with respect to any Excluded Assets or give Purchaser any approval, consent or other rights with respect thereto.

Article 7
INSPECTIONS; DUE DILIGENCE; RELEASE

SECTION 7.1 Inspections.

(a) Purchaser Investigations. During the Due Diligence Period and until Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement, Purchaser and Purchaser’s partners, agents, employees, lenders, investors, property managers, representatives, attorneys, accountants, engineers, contractors, consultants and licensees (collectively, “Purchaser’s Representatives”) shall have the right to enter upon each of the Properties and make such nondestructive on-site investigations, inspections, audits, analyses, appraisals, studies and tests, including, without limitation, surveys and engineering studies and reviewing Sellers’ Deliveries (individually, a “Purchaser Investigation” and collectively, the “Purchaser Investigations”), as Purchaser deems necessary or advisable; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be permitted to conduct (i) any physically invasive inspection, sampling or test, or (ii) testing or sampling required for a Phase II environmental site assessment at any Property without the applicable Seller’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed to the extent any Phase I environmental assessment identifies a recognized environmental condition (meeting the ASTM E1527-13 standard) and recommends further testing, but may otherwise be withheld in such Seller’s sole discretion.

(b) Procedures. Purchaser and Purchaser’s Representatives shall conduct all Purchaser Investigations strictly in accordance with the following procedures:

(i) All Purchaser Investigations at the Properties shall be conducted during the normal business hours of the applicable Property on Business Days, unless the applicable Seller otherwise approves in writing and upon appropriate notice to tenants as required under any Leases.

(ii) Purchaser shall deliver to the applicable Seller a written notice of Purchaser’s intent to perform any Purchaser Inspection at any Property, in each case at least one (1) Business Day prior to the intended date of entry (notice to Brian Rideout by electronic mail at ***@*** shall satisfy this notice requirement). Each such notice shall specify the Property to be entered and shall provide (A) the intended date of entry and the portion of the Property to be entered, (B) a description of the proposed Purchaser Investigations, including, without limitation, a list of contractors who will be performing the proposed Purchaser Investigations, and (C) in the instance of a physically invasive test otherwise permitted hereunder, a copy of the Purchaser’s testing plan outlining the tests that Purchaser intends to perform, and such other information reasonably requested by the applicable Seller in connection with such physically invasive testing. Neither Purchaser nor any Purchaser’s Representative shall enter any portion of any Property until the applicable Seller has given written approval of both the request and any testing plan, which approval may be given by electronic mail to Jamie Shanks at ***@***.

(iii) A representative of the applicable Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to be present during any Purchaser Investigation.

(iv) Neither Purchaser nor any Purchaser’s Representative shall interfere unreasonably with the use, occupancy or enjoyment rights of any tenants, occupants, invitees, employees or contractors of any Seller at any of the Properties or of any such tenants’ or occupants’ employees, contractors, customers or guests.

(v) Purchaser shall have no right to make inquiries of tenants, occupants, invitees, employees or contractors of any Seller without such Seller’s prior written consent, which may be conditioned upon an agent or representative of such Seller accompanying Purchaser or Purchaser’s Representatives during such inquiries.

(vi) Purchaser shall have the right to make customary inquiries to confirm existing factual matters or to request publicly available information, in either case, with regard to any Property, arising in connection with (i) a Phase I environmental site assessment, (ii) a third-party zoning compliance report, (iii) a zoning compliance letter from applicable governmental authorities, (iv) a request for copies of permits and licenses, including certificates of occupancy, (v) a request to the applicable Governmental Authorities as to the status of the existing development rights or entitlements with respect to the Properties, or (vi) taxes attributable to the Properties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Purchaser nor any Purchaser Representative shall affirmatively request any governmental or quasi-governmental agency to undertake any action which would or could lead to a hearing before any governmental or quasi-governmental agency, or which would or could lead to a note or notice of violation of law or municipal ordinance, order or requirement imposed by such an agency, at any Property, or any change in zoning, licenses, permits or other entitlements or any investigation or restriction on the use of any Property or any part thereof by such an agency, except to the extent that the applicable Seller provides prior written consent to such inquiries in such Seller’s sole discretion.

(vii) Following each entry by Purchaser or any Purchaser’s Representative with respect to any Purchaser Investigation, Purchaser shall promptly restore, or cause to be restored, the affected Property to substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to the Purchaser Investigation. Except in connection with radon testing, Purchaser shall not have the right to submit any samples or other materials to any testing laboratory or similar facility without obtaining the prior written consent of such Seller in such Seller’s sole discretion. The restoration provisions of this subsection shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

(viii) Prior to entering onto any Property to conduct any Purchaser Investigation, Purchaser shall obtain (or shall cause Purchaser’s Representatives to obtain), and during the period of all Purchaser Investigations shall maintain or cause to be maintained, at the sole expense of Purchaser or Purchaser’s Representatives, with respect to such Property: (A) commercial general liability (“CGL”) insurance, issued on a form at least as broad as Insurance Services Office (“ISO”) Commercial General Liability Coverage “occurrence” form CG 00 01 10 01 or another “occurrence” form providing equivalent coverage, including contractual liability coverage with respect to Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and personal injury liability coverage, with limits of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) for any one occurrence and Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) in the aggregate; (B) comprehensive automobile liability insurance (covering any automobiles owned or operated by Purchaser or Purchaser’s Representatives) issued on a form at least as broad as ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01 07 97 or other form providing equivalent coverage; (C) worker’s compensation insurance, and (D) employer’s liability insurance. Such automobile liability insurance shall be in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) for each accident. Such worker’s compensation insurance shall carry minimum limits as defined by the law of the jurisdiction in which the applicable Property is located (as the same may be amended from time to time). Such employer’s liability insurance shall be in an amount not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) for each accident, Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) disease-policy limit, and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) disease-each employee. The applicable Seller (and, upon such Seller’s request, the applicable Property manager and Property mortgagee(s)) shall be named as additional insureds on the CGL and automobile liability insurance policies with respect to liability arising out of the named insured’s acts or omissions relating to such Property. Each such insurance policy shall be subject to such Seller’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (for avoidance of doubt, such written approval shall be deemed given by the applicable Seller allowing Purchaser and Purchaser’s Representatives on the applicable Property to the extent the insurance policy otherwise satisfies the coverage types and amounts set forth in this Section 7.1(b)(viii)). Prior to making any entry upon each Property, Purchaser or Purchaser’s Representatives shall furnish to the Sellers a certificate of insurance evidencing the foregoing coverages for such Property, which certificate of insurance shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Sellers.

(ix) Purchaser agrees (A) to promptly pay when due all costs associated with the Purchaser Investigations and (B) not to cause, permit or suffer any lien or encumbrance to be asserted against any Property related to the Purchaser Investigations. The provisions of this subsection shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

(x) Purchaser shall comply with all Applicable Law which might in any way relate to the Purchaser Investigations.

(xi) Neither Purchaser nor any Purchaser’s Representative shall damage any part of any Property or any personal property owned or held by any tenant, occupant or third party.

(c) Indemnification. Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend each of the Sellers, and their respective members, officers, managers, employees and shareholders (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Claims actually incurred by any Seller or any other indemnified party and caused by and arising out of (i) any Purchaser Investigation (i.e., without regard to the phrase “nondestructive” included in the definition of Purchaser Investigation) conducted by or at the behest of Purchaser and/or any Purchaser’s Representative, or (ii) any breach by Purchaser and/or any Purchaser’s Representative of the terms of this Section 7.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have no liability for (and no obligation to indemnify, defend and/or hold any of the Seller Indemnified Parties harmless from) Claims arising from (A) pre-existing conditions merely discovered by Purchaser Investigations and not exacerbated by Purchaser or Purchaser’s Representatives (and in any event, only to the extent of such exacerbation), (B) the gross negligence or intentional wrongdoing of any Seller, the Seller Indemnified Parties, or any Property’s tenants, occupants and invitees (other than Purchaser and Purchaser’s Representatives), or (C) any consequential, punitive, special or other similar damages. For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser acknowledges that this Section 7.1(c) also applies to Claims arising during the portion of the Due Diligence Period that preceded the Effective Date of this Agreement. This Section 7.1(c) shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

(d) WAIVER AND RELEASE. PURCHASER, FOR ITSELF AND ALL OF PURCHASER’S REPRESENTATIVES, HEREBY WAIVES AND RELEASES EACH OF THE SELLERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE MEMBERS, OFFICERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES AND SHAREHOLDERS FROM ALL CLAIMS RESULTING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM ACCESS TO, ENTRANCE UPON, OR INSPECTION OF THE PROPERTY BY PURCHASER OR ANY OF PURCHASER’S REPRESENTATIVES FROM AND AFTER THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD, UNLESS ARISING FROM THE WRONGFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF SELLER OR THE SELLERS. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 7.1(D) SHALL SURVIVE CLOSING OR ANY TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS SECTION 7.1(D) ALSO APPLIES TO ALL CLAIMS ARISING DURING THE PORTION OF THE DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD THAT PRECEDED THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT.

SECTION 7.2 Sellers’ Deliveries.

(a) To the extent that they have not already done so under the Access Agreement, the Sellers will make available to Purchaser and Purchaser’s Representatives for their review, in an online data room and/or at the applicable Property, items and information pertaining to the Properties set forth on Schedule B attached hereto (collectively referred to as the “Sellers’ Deliveries”). Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Sellers’ Deliveries are made available to Purchaser without representation or warranty by, or recourse against, any Seller, it being agreed that Purchaser shall not rely on such documents and shall independently verify the truth, accuracy and completeness of said information and/or items contained therein.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated prior to Closing, within seven (7) days from the date of the Sellers’ request, Purchaser shall return or cause to be returned to the Sellers or destroy or cause to be destroyed all of the Sellers’ Deliveries (and provide written confirmation of such destruction to Seller). This Section 7.2(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.3 Purchaser Acknowledgment Regarding Due Diligence Period. Purchaser acknowledges that, during the Due Diligence Period, it has had adequate opportunity to consider, inspect and review to its satisfaction the physical, environmental, economic and legal condition of the Properties and all files and information in the Sellers’ possession that Purchaser deems material to the purchase of the Properties, and that Purchaser has elected to proceed with the transaction described in this Agreement.

SECTION 7.4 Sellers’ Disclaimer. Purchaser acknowledges the following:

ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED OR TO BE PROVIDED BY OR ON BEHALF OF THE SELLERS WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTIES IS PROVIDED SOLELY FOR PURCHASER’S CONVENIENCE.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement or the Closing Documents, the Sellers shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to any such presence of lead-based paint at any of the Properties.

Article 8
TITLE AND PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS

SECTION 8.1 Title Insurance and Surveys.

(a) Title Commitments. Sellers have delivered to Purchaser title commitments for ALTA Owner’s Title Insurance Policies (individually a “Title Commitment” and collectively the “Title Commitments”) issued by the Title Company covering the Real Property providing for the issuance at the Closing to Purchaser of the Owner’s Policy. Upon issuance, the Owner’s Policy will except from coverage only those exceptions which become Permitted Exceptions pursuant this Agreement. Except as permitted under this Agreement, no additional encumbrances may be created on the Property by Seller from and after the date of the Title Commitments without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

(b) Updated Surveys. The Sellers have provided or shall provide copies of the Sellers’ most recent surveys of the Real Property to Purchaser, to the extent in the Sellers’ possession, as part of the Sellers’ Deliveries. Sellers have delivered to Purchaser new ALTA/NSPS surveys for the Real Property (each individually an “Updated Survey,” and collectively the “Updated Surveys”). If the legal description for any Land on an Updated Survey differs from the legal description attached to this Agreement for such Land, upon Purchaser’s request, the applicable Seller shall execute and deliver to Purchaser at Closing a quitclaim deed, without representation or warranty, that uses the legal description set forth on such Updated Survey.

(c) Disapproved Title Matters. Purchaser notified the Sellers in writing (the “Title Objection Notice”) on May 31, 2019 (the expiration date of Purchaser’s “Title Review Period”) as to which matters within the Title Commitments and which survey matters disclosed on the Updated Surveys are not acceptable to Purchaser (individually, a “Disapproved Title Matter”). Any matter within the Title Commitments and the Updated Surveys that Purchaser failed to so disapprove in a Title Objection Notice delivered to the Sellers shall be conclusively deemed to have been approved by Purchaser and shall constitute “Permitted Exceptions.” Sellers have notified Purchaser in writing on June 7, 2019, as supplemented by written notice to Purchaser on June 14, 2019 (collectively, the “Title Response Notice”), regarding whether each such Seller either (i) agreed to remove such Disapproved Title Matter from title to the applicable Real Property on or before the Closing, or (ii) declined to remove such Disapproved Title Matter from title to such Real Property. If the applicable Seller failed to timely deliver a Title Response Notice as to a particular Disapproved Title Matter, then such Seller shall be deemed to have made the election in clause (ii) above as to such Disapproved Title Matter.

(d) Regarding the Disapproved Title Matters in Purchaser’s Title Objection Notice as to which the Sellers have elected (or are deemed to have elected) not to remove such matters from title (i.e. the Sellers have made the election in clause (c)(ii) above), Purchaser acknowledges that it has elected to accept the condition of title to the Real Property subject to such Disapproved Title Matters, and that such uncured Disapproved Title Matters shall thereafter constitute “Permitted Exceptions.”

(e) Required Cure Items. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated, at Closing, to cause Title Company to remove (i) deeds of trust, mortgages, security deeds or other security liens encumbering the Property; (ii) judgment liens encumbering the Property; (iii) mechanic’s or materialmen’s liens encumbering the Property; (iv) any instrument or other matter of record evidencing a lien or monetary encumbrance against the Property, or that may be discharged or satisfied through the payment of money; (v) matters created or appearing of record after the date of the Title Commitments and caused by the act or omission of a Seller without the prior written consent of Purchaser; and (vi) any outstanding water bills, sewer bills, gas bills, electric bills or other utility bills due and owing (items i, ii, iii, iv, v and vi above are collectively referred to as the “Required Cure Items”). Seller shall be entitled to cure any Required Cure Items by compliance with a statutory bonding procedure that has the legal effect of removing the Required Cure Item as a lien on the affected Real Property, provided that such bonding procedure also causes the subject item to be removed as an exception in the Owner’s Policy. If any Seller agrees in writing to cure a Disapproved Title Matter prior to Closing but thereafter subsequently fails to do so, Sellers shall be in material default hereunder and Purchaser shall be permitted to pursue the remedies provided in Section 13.2 hereof, subject to any notice and cure provisions relating thereto.

(f) Written approval by Purchaser of any additional materially adverse title exceptions, defects, encumbrances or other title matters not shown on the Title Commitments or Updated Surveys disclosed in writing to Purchaser after the expiration of the Title Review Period or new exceptions, defects, encumbrances or other title matters not shown on the Title Commitments solely due to an error by the Title Company in omitting the same and for which Purchaser had no prior knowledge (collectively, “Additional Title Matters”) shall be a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligations to purchase the Properties. Unless Purchaser gives written notice (an “Additional Title Disapproval Notice”) that it disapproves any Additional Title Matters, stating the Additional Title Matters so disapproved (the “Additional Title Disapproval Matters”), before the sooner to occur of the Closing or five (5) Business Days after receipt of written notice of such Additional Title Matters, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved such Additional Title Matters and any such Additional Title Matters shall thereafter constitute “Permitted Exceptions.” The Sellers shall have until three (3) Business Days after receipt of any Additional Title Disapproval Notice (the “Additional Title Response Period”) to notify Purchaser in writing (an “Additional Title Disapproval Response”) of the Additional Title Disapproval Matters, if any, which the Sellers will cure prior to Closing. The Sellers’ failure to timely provide such Additional Title Disapproval Response shall be deemed to constitute the Sellers’ election not to cure any Additional Title Disapproval Matters. If the Sellers do not agree to cure all Additional Disapproved Matters, then Purchaser may, at its option, terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the Sellers, but only if given prior to the sooner to occur of Closing or five (5) Business Days after Purchaser receives the Additional Title Disapproval Response, or if the Sellers do not provide the Additional Title Disapproval Response, five (5) Business Days after the end of the Additional Title Response Period, in which case this Agreement shall immediately terminate, Purchaser shall be entitled to a return of the Earnest Money, and the Sellers and Purchaser shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except for the provisions hereof that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser fails to give such termination notice by such date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its objection to, and to have approved, the matters set forth in the Sellers’ notice and any such uncured Additional Title Disapproval Matters shall become “Permitted Exceptions.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any such matter not set forth on the original Title Commitments or original Updated Surveys, as applicable, constitutes a breach of any Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, then the Sellers shall be in default under this Agreement, and Purchaser shall be permitted to pursue the remedies provided in Section 13.2 hereof, subject to any notice and cure provisions relating thereto.

SECTION 8.2 Intentionally Deleted.

SECTION 8.3 Certain Exceptions to Title; Inability to Convey.

(a) Each Seller’s interest in its applicable Real Property shall be conveyed by such Seller, and Purchaser agrees to acquire such Seller’s interest in such Real Property, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions applicable to such Real Property. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Sellers shall be obligated at or prior to the Closing to cause the release or discharge, at Sellers’ sole cost and expense, of any Required Cure Items. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Sellers shall have the right to apply or cause the Escrow Agent to apply all or any portion of the Purchase Price to cause the release or discharge of any Required Cure Items when escrow is broken at Closing.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Seller notifies Purchaser in writing that it will cure a title objection of the Purchaser but subsequently fails to cure such objection at or prior to Closing, Seller shall be in default under this Agreement and all remedies set forth in Section 13.2 shall be available to Purchaser.

(c) Except as expressly set forth in Section 8.1 or in Section 8.3(a), nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to require the Sellers to take or bring any action or proceeding or any other steps to remove any title exception or to expend any moneys therefor, and except in connection with a Seller default under this Agreement, Purchaser shall not have any right of action against any of the Sellers, at law or in equity, for any Seller’s inability to convey its interest in any Real Property subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

SECTION 8.4 Purchaser’s Right to Accept Title.

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 8, Purchaser may, by written notice given to the Sellers at any time prior to the earlier of (x) the Closing Date and (y) the termination of this Agreement, elect to accept such title as the Sellers can convey, notwithstanding the existence of any title or survey exceptions that are not Permitted Exceptions and which the Sellers are not required to remove or cure pursuant to this Agreement. In such event, this Agreement shall remain in effect and the parties shall proceed to Closing, but Purchaser shall not be entitled to any abatement of the Purchase Price, any credit or allowance of any kind or any claim or right of action against the Sellers for damages or otherwise by reason of the existence of any title exceptions which are not Permitted Exceptions and which the Sellers are not required to remove or cure pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) Purchaser shall be entitled to request that the Title Company provide such endorsements (or amendments) to the Owner’s Policy as Purchaser may reasonably require, provided that (i) such endorsements (or amendments), other than any curative endorsements that the Sellers may elect to obtain pursuant to Section 8.1 or Section 8.3(a), shall be at no cost to, and shall impose no additional liability on, any of the Sellers, (ii) Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement shall not be conditioned upon Purchaser’s ability to obtain such endorsements (other than any curative endorsements that the Sellers may elect to obtain pursuant to Section 8.1 or Section 8.3(a)), and, if Purchaser is unable to obtain such endorsements, Purchaser shall nevertheless be obligated to proceed to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without reduction of or setoff against the Purchase Price, and (iii) the Closing shall not be delayed as a result of Purchaser’s request hereunder.

Article 9

SECTION 9.1 Transaction Costs.

(a) Purchaser and the Sellers agree to comply with all real estate transfer tax laws applicable to the sale of the Properties.

(b) At Closing, the Sellers shall pay or cause to be paid the following: (i) any title search and exam fees and the base Owner’s Policy premium for the Sovereign Property (Purchaser specifically agreeing and acknowledging that the applicable Sellers shall also be entitled to any rebate or discount associated with such title premiums); (ii) any costs in connection with discharging any encumbrances that the Sellers specifically agree to or are obligated to pay, discharge, remove or cure pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (iii) any state or local transfer tax, excise tax or documentary stamps payable on the conveyance of the Properties to Purchaser; (iv) solely with respect to the Leigh House Property and the Preston View Property, document recording fees for the applicable Deeds and other recordable conveyance documents for such Properties; (v) the Brokers’ commissions; and (vi) one-half (1/2) of all escrow or closing charges of the Escrow Agent.

(c) At Closing, Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid the following: (i) any title search and exam fees and the base Owner’s Policy premium for the Leigh House Property and the Preston View Property; (ii) except to the extent that any such costs are to be paid by the Sellers under Section 9.1(b) hereof, all other costs for the Owner’s Policy and any lender’s title policy or policies on all Properties, including premiums for any extended coverage, endorsements, update charges and other title charges; (iii) Purchaser’s cost to obtain any Updated Surveys; (iv) all other fees, costs or expenses in connection with Purchaser’s due diligence reviews and analyses hereunder; (v) document recording fees for the applicable Deeds and other recordable conveyance documents for the Sovereign Property; (vi) all costs associated with Purchaser’s acquisition financing, if any, including any state or local documentary stamps, intangibles tax or mortgage tax and recording fees for any recordable loan documents; and (vii) one-half (1/2) of all escrow or closing charges of the Escrow Agent (not to exceed $750.00 per Property). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each party shall pay the fees of its own attorneys, accountants and other professionals.

(d) Each of Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, shall indemnify the other and their respective successors and assigns from and against any and all loss, damage, cost, charge, liability or expense (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred) which such other party may sustain or incur as a result of the failure of either such party to timely pay any of the aforementioned fees or other charges for which it has assumed responsibility under this Section 9.1. The provisions of this Section 9.1 shall survive the Closing or the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.2 Risk of Loss.

(a) Prior to the Closing, the risk of loss shall remain with the Sellers. If, on or before the Closing, the Real Property or any portion thereof shall be (i) damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty or (ii) taken or threatened in writing to be taken as a result of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, the Sellers shall promptly notify Purchaser and, at Closing, the Sellers will credit against the Purchase Price payable by Purchaser an amount equal to the net proceeds (other than on account of business or rental interruption relating to the period prior to Closing), if any, received by the Sellers as a result of such casualty or condemnation, together with a credit for any deductible under such insurance, less any amounts spent by any Seller to remedy unsafe conditions at the affected Real Property prior to Closing. If as of the Closing Date, the Sellers have not received any such insurance or condemnation proceeds, then the parties shall nevertheless consummate the conveyance of the Properties on such date (without any credit for such insurance or condemnation proceeds except for a credit for any deductible under such insurance, less any amounts spent by any Seller to remedy unsafe conditions at the affected Real Property prior to Closing), and at Closing the Sellers will assign to Purchaser all rights of the Sellers, if any, to the insurance or condemnation proceeds (other than on account of business or rental interruption relating to the period prior to Closing) and to all other rights or claims arising out of or in connection with such casualty or condemnation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Sellers shall not settle any insurance claim in connection with damage or destruction to the Real Property or any portion thereof by fire or other casualty or settle any condemnation or eminent domain action brought against the Real Property or any portion thereof without the Purchaser’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that in the event of a Material Casualty or Material Condemnation, Purchaser’s consent will only be required after Purchaser’s waiver of its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.2 (and provided further that Purchaser shall not be required to waive its termination right until a casualty is determined to be a Material Casualty and a condemnation is determined to be a Material Condemnation).

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.2(a), if, on or before the Closing Date, any Real Property or any portion thereof shall be (i) damaged or destroyed by a Material Casualty or (ii) taken or threatened in writing to be taken as a result of a Material Condemnation, Purchaser shall have the right, exercised by written notice to the Sellers no more than five (5) Business Days after Purchaser has received written notice of such Material Casualty or Material Condemnation from Sellers, to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Earnest Money shall be refunded to Purchaser and no party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser fails to timely terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 9.2(b), the provisions of Section 9.2(a) shall apply.

(c) A “Material Casualty” shall mean any damage to a particular Real Property or any portion thereof occurring at any time on or after the Effective Date, by fire or other casualty, that is expected to cost in excess of one and one half percent (1.5%) of the Allocable Purchase Price for such individual Property to repair (as determined by the independent insurance adjuster designated by Seller’s insurance company).

(d) A “Material Condemnation” shall mean any condemnation or conveyance in lieu of condemnation for a particular Real Property which: (i) permanently and materially impairs the current use or value of the Real Property; (ii) permanently and materially impairs access to the Real Property from public roads; (iii) reduces the number or utility of parking spaces; or (iv) prohibits, as a matter of applicable law, the rebuilding or repair of any Improvements as they currently exist.

(e) Seller and Purchaser hereby agree that the Uniform Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act, Section 5.007 of the Texas Property Code, shall not be applicable to this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby.

Article 10
ADJUSTMENTS

Unless otherwise provided below, the following are to be adjusted and prorated between Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, as of 11:59 pm Eastern Time on the day preceding the Closing (the “Adjustment Point”), based upon a 365-day year, with Purchaser being deemed to be the owner of the Properties during the entire day of the Closing Date and being entitled to receive all operating income of the Properties, and being obligated to pay all operating expenses of the Properties, with respect to the Closing Date, and the net amount thereof under this Article 10 shall be added to (if such net amount is in the Sellers’ favor) or deducted from (if such net amount is in Purchaser’s favor) the Purchase Price payable at Closing. Escrow Agent shall prepare the Closing Statements of the prorations and adjustments required by this Agreement and submit the same to Purchaser and the Sellers, respectively, for review and approval at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

SECTION 10.1 Rents.

(a) All Rents (as hereinafter defined) paid by tenants under the Leases in connection with their occupancy of the Real Property shall be adjusted and prorated as of the Adjustment Point. Delinquent Rents shall not be prorated. The Sellers shall be entitled to all Rents under Leases attributable to the period prior to the Adjustment Point, and Purchaser shall be entitled to all Rents under Leases attributable to the period from and after the Adjustment Point. All prepaid Rents for periods of occupancy after the Adjustment Point shall be credited to Purchaser at Closing. Any Rents collected by Purchaser or the Sellers after Closing from any tenant who owes Rents for periods prior to Closing shall be applied (i) first, in payment of current Rents at the time of receipt, (ii) second, to delinquent Rents, if any, which became due after the Closing, and (iii) third, to delinquent Rents, if any, which became due and payable prior to the Closing or otherwise attributable to the period prior to Closing. “Rents” for purposes of this Agreement shall mean (whether paid in advance of the date when such payment is due or otherwise) all fixed rents and other charges or amounts payable by tenants under the Leases or in connection with their use or occupancy of the Real Property or any service or amenity relating thereto, including water, electricity, gas, sewage or other utilities charges or other pass-through fees and charges.

(b) For a period of one hundred twenty (120) days following Closing, Purchaser shall bill tenants who owe Rents for periods prior to the Closing and use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue collection of such past due Rents to the full extent that Purchaser would endeavor to collect delinquent Rents owed to Purchaser, but shall not be obligated to engage a collection agency or take legal action or other enforcement action under the applicable Lease to collect such amount. Purchaser shall pay to the Sellers, no later than seven (7) days after collection, any collected amount that is owed to any Seller, it being understood that any Rent and other sums collected by Purchaser under any Lease subsequent to the Closing shall first be applied to Rent and income obligations owing to Purchaser for its period of ownership. For a period of one hundred twenty (120) days following Closing, Purchaser may not waive any delinquent (or unpaid) Rents or modify a Lease so as to reduce or otherwise affect amounts owed thereunder for any period in which any Seller is entitled to receive a share of charges or amounts without first obtaining the applicable Seller’s written consent. From and after Closing, Seller shall take no action with regards to obtaining delinquent Rent or other sums from existing tenants at the Properties. With respect to delinquent or other uncollected Rents and any other amounts or other rights of any kind respecting tenants who are no longer tenants of the Properties as of the Closing Date, the Sellers shall retain all of the rights relating thereto. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Seller acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser is under no obligation to collect delinquent Rents on Seller’s behalf.

SECTION 10.2 Taxes and Assessments. All non-delinquent real estate, ad valorem real property and personal property taxes and assessments with respect to the Properties for the local tax year (i.e. not the calendar year) in which Closing occurs shall be prorated between the Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, as of the Adjustment Point (on the basis of the most recent available tax bill if the current bill is not then available and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over the applicable tax year). The Sellers shall be responsible for the payment of any such real estate and personal property taxes that for years prior to the local tax year in which Closing occurs. In no event shall the Sellers be charged with or be responsible for any increase in the taxes on the Properties resulting from (a) any change in use of the Properties on or after the Closing Date, or (b) any improvements made or leases entered into on or after the Closing Date. If any taxes or assessments on the Properties are payable in installments, then the installment allocable to the current period shall be prorated (with Purchaser being allocated the obligation to pay any installments due on or after the Closing Date). With regards to the Leigh House Property and the Preston View Property, the parties acknowledge and agree that the real estate, ad valorem real property and personal property taxes due and assessment and payable on September 1, 2019 (but not delinquent or accruing interest until January 5, 2020), are for the local tax year that begins on July 1, 2019 and ends on June 30, 2020.

SECTION 10.3 Intentionally Deleted.

SECTION 10.4 Utility Charges.

(a) Water, sewer, gas, steam, electricity and other public utility charges will be paid by the applicable Seller to the utility company on or prior to the Closing Date. The Sellers shall arrange for a final reading of all utility meters (covering gas, water, steam and electricity) as of the Closing. To the extent necessary, each affected Seller and Purchaser shall execute a letter to each such utility company advising it of the termination of such Seller’s responsibility for utilities furnished to the applicable Real Property as of the Closing Date and commencement of Purchaser’s responsibilities therefor from and after such date. If a bill is obtained from any such utility company as of Closing, the applicable Seller shall pay such bill on or before the Closing Date. Any utilities not read or billed as of the Closing Date will be prorated as of the Adjustment Point based on estimates at Closing, and adjusted after Closing once the final amounts are known. Additionally, the Sellers shall receive credits at Closing for the amount of any utility deposits with respect to the Real Property paid by the Sellers, to the extent Purchaser receives a credit from the applicable utility company on account of such deposit.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Seller pays any utility bills and, directly or through a billing service, bills the tenants for such utilities, then at Closing, such Seller shall receive a credit for the estimated amount of utility charges incurred by such Seller and reimbursable to such Seller from tenants under the Leases for periods prior to Closing (“RUBS”). The credit shall be for sixty (60) days of RUBS calculated based on the average RUBS payable by the tenants for the twelve (12) month period preceding the Closing Date. Such credit shall be final and shall not be subject to reproration pursuant to Section 10.10.

SECTION 10.5 Miscellaneous Revenues. Periodic revenues, if any, arising out of telephone booths, vending machines, laundry machines or other income-producing agreements shall be adjusted and prorated between Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, as of the Adjustment Point (provided that, one-time inducement fees, “door fees” or similar non-recurring payments under Assumed Contracts shall not be prorated as of the Closing Date).

SECTION 10.6 Assumed Contracts. Amounts due under the Assumed Contracts shall be adjusted and prorated between Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, as of the Adjustment Point, with Purchaser to receive a credit at Closing for any amounts unpaid and attributable for the period prior to the Closing and the Sellers to receive a credit at Closing for any amounts previously paid and attributable to the period on and following the Closing.

SECTION 10.7 Association Fees. If applicable, all owners’ association fees or similar fees and assessments due and payable with respect to the Real Property with respect to the applicable association’s fiscal year in which the Closing occurs shall be adjusted and prorated based on the periods of ownership by the Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, during each such association’s fiscal year.

SECTION 10.8 Security Deposits. The actual amounts of the Refundable Security Deposits held by the Sellers as landlord under the Leases shall be credited to Purchaser against the balance of the Purchase Price at Closing. Any such Refundable Security Deposits in forms other than cash (including letters of credit) shall be transferred to Purchaser on the Closing Date by way of appropriate instruments of transfer or assignment.

SECTION 10.9 Other Adjustments. If applicable, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted at Closing to reflect the adjustment of any other item which, under the explicit terms of this Agreement, is to be apportioned at Closing. Any other items of operating income or operating expense that are customarily apportioned between the parties in real estate closings of comparable commercial properties in the metropolitan area where each Property is located shall be prorated as applicable; however, there will be no prorations for debt service, insurance premiums or payroll, because Purchaser is not acquiring or assuming the Sellers’ financing, insurance or employees.

SECTION 10.10 Re-Adjustment. In the event any prorations or apportionments made under this Article 10 shall prove to be incorrect for any reason, then any party shall be entitled to an adjustment to correct the same. Any item that cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and reprorated when the information is available. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, all re-prorations contemplated by this Agreement shall be completed within three (3) months after the Closing Date (subject to extension solely as necessary due to the unavailability of final information but in no event to exceed four (4) months after the Closing Date); provided, however, the final date with respect to real estate, ad valorem real property and property taxes and assessments shall be thirty (30) days after the issuance of final bills or other final resolutions of any contest relating thereto. The obligations of the Sellers and Purchaser under this Article 10 shall survive Closing for the time periods set forth in this Section 10.10.

Article 11
INDEMNIFICATION

SECTION 11.1 Indemnification by the Sellers. Following Closing and subject to Sections 11.3, 11.4 and 11.5, the Sellers shall indemnify and hold Purchaser and each of its respective Affiliates, members, partners, shareholders, officers and directors (collectively, the “Purchaser-Related Entities”) harmless from and against any and all costs, fees, expenses, damages, deficiencies, interest and penalties (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements actually incurred) suffered or incurred by Purchaser in connection with any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses (“Losses”), arising out of, or resulting from, (a) any breach of any representation or warranty of the Sellers contained in Section 3.1 of this Agreement or in any Closing Document executed by any of the Sellers (collectively, the “Seller Representations”), and (b) any breach of any covenant of Sellers contained in this Agreement or in any Closing Document that expressly survives the Closing (collectively, the “Surviving Covenants”).

SECTION 11.3 Limitations on Indemnification by Sellers. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 11.1, (a) the Sellers shall not be required to indemnify Purchaser unless the amount for which an indemnity would otherwise be payable by an applicable Seller under Section 11.1 exceeds the Basket Limitation and, in such event, the applicable Seller or Sellers shall be responsible for all such amounts from the first dollar of loss up to the Cap Limitation (provided that the Sellers’ obligations under Article 10 with respect to prorations and adjustments and the Sellers’ obligations under Section 14.2 with respect to brokers shall not be subject to the Basket Limitation or the Cap Limitation), (b) in no event shall the liability of each Seller with respect to the indemnification provided for in Section 11.1 exceed the Cap Limitation for such Seller’s Property (provided that the Sellers’ obligations under Article 10 with respect to prorations and adjustments and the Sellers’ obligations under Section 14.2 with respect to brokers shall not be subject to the Basket Limitation or the Cap Limitation), and (c) in the event Purchaser has actual knowledge or any Deemed Purchaser Knowledge of any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant of the Sellers contained in this Agreement (a “Purchaser Waived Breach”) after the Effective Date but prior to Closing, and nonetheless proceeds with and consummates Closing, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived and forever renounced any right to assert a claim for indemnification under this Article 11 for, or any other claim or cause of action under this Agreement, whether at law or in equity, on account of any such Purchaser Waived Breach. In no event shall Purchaser be entitled to seek or obtain consequential, speculative, special, punitive or exemplary damages against the Sellers.

SECTION 11.4 Survival. The Seller Representations and Surviving Covenants shall survive for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”), unless a longer or shorter survival period is expressly provided for in this Agreement. Each Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall have the right to bring an action or proceeding against the other for the breach of any such Seller Representations and Surviving Covenants, but only if the party bringing the action for breach (i) first learns of the breach after Closing, (ii) gives written notice of such breach to the other party within the Survival Period (unless a longer or shorter survival period is expressly provided for in this Agreement), and (iii) files such action for such breach no later than thirty (30) days after the written notice of the breach, unless a longer or shorter survival period is expressly provided for in this Agreement; provided, however, with respect to any actions brought by a party hereunder during the Survival Period but remaining unresolved as of the expiration of such period, the Survival Period shall extend solely as to such claims until the final adjudication (including appeals) or settlement of such claims.

SECTION 11.5 Notification. In the event that any indemnified party (“Indemnified Party”) becomes aware of any claim or demand for which an indemnifying party (an “Indemnifying Party”) may have liability to such Indemnified Party hereunder (an “Indemnification Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than thirty (30) days following such Indemnified Party’s having become actually aware of such Indemnification Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Indemnification Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Indemnification Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto; provided, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in giving any such notice of a Indemnification Claim shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay.

SECTION 11.6 Indemnification as Sole Remedy. If Closing has occurred, the sole and exclusive remedy available to a party in the event of a breach by the other party to this Agreement of any representation, warranty, covenant or other provision of this Agreement or any Closing Document which expressly survives the Closing shall be the indemnifications provided for under this Article 11, except as it relates to re-proration obligations under Article 10 and the indemnification obligations under Section 7.1 and Section 14.2.

SECTION 11.7 Limits on Indemnification by Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 11.2, (a) Purchaser shall not be required to indemnify any Seller or any Seller-Related Entities under Section 11.2 unless the amount for which an indemnity would otherwise be payable by Purchaser under Section 11.2 exceeds the Basket Limitation and, in such event, Purchaser shall be responsible for all such amounts, (b) in no event shall the liability of Purchaser with respect to the indemnification provided for in Section 11.2 exceed the Cap Limitation for such Seller’s Property (provided that Purchaser’s obligations under Article 10 with respect to re-prorations and adjustments shall not be subject to the Basket Limitation or the Cap Limitation), and (c) in the event such Seller obtains Knowledge of any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement (a “Seller Waived Breach”) after the Effective Date but prior to the Closing, and such Seller nonetheless proceeds with and consummates the Closing, then each Seller and any Seller-Related Entities shall be deemed to have waived and forever renounced any right to assert a claim for indemnification under this Article 11 for, or any other claim or cause of action under this Agreement, whether at law or in equity on account of any such Seller Waived Breach. In no event shall any Seller be entitled to seek or obtain consequential, speculative, special, punitive or exemplary damages against Purchaser.

Article 12
TAX APPEALS

SECTION 12.1 Prosecution and Settlement of Proceedings. If any tax reduction proceedings in respect of the Real Property, relating to any tax years ending prior to the tax year in which the Closing occurs are pending at the time of Closing, the Sellers reserve and shall have the right to continue to prosecute and/or settle the same. Prior to Closing, the Sellers reserve and shall have the right to initiate and continue any tax reduction proceedings in respect of any of the Real Property relating to the tax year in which Closing occurs; provided, however, that the Sellers shall not settle any such proceeding without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. From and after Closing, Purchaser shall have the right to initiate or assume tax reduction proceedings in respect of the Real Property relating to the tax year in which Closing occurs and shall have the right to continue to prosecute and/or settle the same. The Sellers and Purchaser shall, from time to time, each keep the other reasonably informed of the status of any such tax reduction proceedings.

SECTION 12.2 Application of Refunds or Savings. Any refunds or savings in the payment of taxes resulting from such tax reduction proceedings applicable to taxes payable with respect to the period prior to the Closing Date shall belong to and be the property of the Sellers, and any refunds or savings in the payment of taxes applicable to taxes with respect to the period on or after the Closing Date shall belong to and be the property of Purchaser. All reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in obtaining such refunds or savings shall be apportioned between the applicable Seller or Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, in proportion to the gross amount of such refunds or savings payable to the applicable Seller or Sellers and Purchaser, respectively; provided, however, that neither the Sellers nor Purchaser shall have any liability for any such fees or expenses in excess of the refund or savings paid to such party unless such party initiated such proceeding.

SECTION 12.3 Survival. The provisions of this Article 12 shall survive Closing until the final resolution of any such tax appeals, notwithstanding any earlier “true-up” deadline to the contrary.

Article 13
DEFAULT

SECTION 13.1 Purchaser’s Default. If Purchaser fails to consummate the purchase of the Properties pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise defaults on its obligations hereunder at or prior to Closing for any reason except failure by Seller to perform hereunder, or if prior to Closing any one or more of Purchaser’s representations or warranties are breached in any material respect, and such default or breach is not cured by the earlier of the third (3^rd) Business Day after written notice thereof from the Sellers or the Closing Date (provided that no notice or cure period shall apply if Purchaser fails to timely deposit any portion of the Earnest Money, or if Purchaser fails to timely consummate the purchase of the Properties or the timely payment of the Purchase Price), the Sellers shall be entitled, as their sole remedy, to terminate this Agreement by giving the Purchaser written notice of such election prior to or at Closing and recover the Earnest Money as liquidated damages and not as penalty, in full satisfaction of claims against Purchaser hereunder. The Sellers and Purchaser agree that the Sellers’ damages resulting from Purchaser’s default are difficult, if not impossible, to determine, and that the Earnest Money is a fair estimate of those damages which has been agreed to in an effort to cause the amount of such damages to be certain.

If the Sellers fail to consummate the sale of the Properties pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise default on their obligations hereunder at or prior to Closing for any reason except failure by Purchaser to perform hereunder, or if prior to Closing any one or more of the Sellers’ representations or warranties are breached in any material respect (i.e. in accordance with Section 3.2(g)), and such default or breach is not cured by the earlier of the fifth (5^th) Business Day after written notice thereof from Purchaser or the Closing Date (provided that no notice or cure period shall apply if the Sellers fail to timely consummate the sale of the Properties hereunder), Purchaser shall elect, as its sole remedy, either (a) to terminate this Agreement by giving the Sellers written notice of such election prior to or at Closing, and recover the Earnest Money and reimbursement of Purchaser’s actual out-of-pocket third-party expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, up to a maximum reimbursement of $750,000.00, (b) to enforce specific performance to consummate the sale of the Properties hereunder; provided, however, that if any Seller willfully conveys any of the Properties to a third party or third parties, such that the remedy of specific performance is unavailable to Purchaser, Purchaser shall have the right to seek its actual damages against the Sellers in an amount not to exceed $3,600,000.00 in the aggregate, or (c) to waive said failure or breach and proceed to Closing without any reduction in the Purchase Price. In no event shall the Sellers be liable for consequential, speculative, remote or punitive damages, or any other damages except as specifically provided herein, and Purchaser hereby waives and releases any right to seek or collect any such consequential, speculative, remote or punitive damages. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected option (a) above if Purchaser fails to deliver to the Sellers written notice of its intent to file a claim or assert a cause of action for specific performance or damages against the Sellers on or before the date that is ten (10) Business Days following the scheduled Closing Date or, having given such notice, fails to file a lawsuit asserting such claim or cause of action for specific performance or damages in the county in which the Earnest Money is deposited within forty five (45) days following the scheduled Closing Date.

SECTION 13.3 Certain Limitations.

(a) Notwithstanding Sections 13.1 and 13.2 hereof, in no event shall the provisions of Sections 13.1 and 13.2 limit (i) either Purchaser’s or any Seller’s obligation to indemnify the other party, or the damages recoverable by an indemnified party against the indemnifying party due to, a party’s express obligation to indemnify another party in accordance with this Agreement, (ii) Purchaser’s or any Seller’s respective obligation to pay Closing costs under Section 9.1 hereof, or the damages recoverable by any party against another party due to a party’s failure to pay such costs, or (iii) either Purchaser’s or any Seller’s obligations to pay another party’s legal costs under Section 14.23 hereof.

If there is any dispute as to whether the Escrow Agent is obligated to deliver the Earnest Money or as to whom the Earnest Money is to be delivered following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, the Escrow Agent may refuse to make any delivery and may continue to hold the Earnest Money until receipt by the Escrow Agent of an authorization in writing, signed by the Sellers and Purchaser, directing the disposition of the Earnest Money, or, in the absence of such written authorization, until final determination of the rights of the parties in an appropriate judicial proceeding. If such written authorization is not given, or a proceeding for such determination is not begun, within thirty (30) days of notice to the Escrow Agent of such dispute, the Escrow Agent may bring an appropriate action or proceeding for leave to deposit the Earnest Money in a court of competent jurisdiction located in the City of New York, State of New York pending such determination. The Escrow Agent shall be reimbursed for all costs and expenses of such action or proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, by the party determined not to be entitled to the Earnest Money.

(i) Exchanges.

(ii) Leigh House TIC Transfer.

(b) Assignments by Purchaser. This Agreement may not be assigned by Purchaser in whole or in part without the prior written consent of the Sellers.

(B) A “Special Condemnation” shall mean any condemnation or conveyance in lieu of condemnation for a particular Real Property which meets the standards for a “Material Condemnation” under Section 9.2(d), and for which either (i) the cost of restoration is expected to exceed ten percent (10%) of the Allocable Purchase Price for such individual Property (as determined by a general contractor selected by Purchaser that is reasonably acceptable to Seller) or (ii) results in a diminution in value of the applicable Property by more than ten percent (10%) of the Allocable Purchase Price for such individual Property (as determined by an MAI certified appraiser selected by Purchaser that is reasonably acceptable to Seller).

(C) A “Terminated Property” shall mean any Property affected by a Special Casualty or Special Condemnation that Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 14.27(a).

(D) The “Remaining Properties” shall mean the remaining Properties with the remaining Sellers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, other than any Terminated Property.

(ii) In the event of a Special Casualty or Special Condemnation at any of the Properties, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement only with regards to the affected Property by written notice to the Sellers, whereupon the affected Property shall constitute a Terminated Property, the other Properties (and the other properties in the Property Group) shall constitute Remaining Properties, and Purchaser shall proceed to close on the Remaining Properties with the remaining Sellers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in which event: (A) the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the Allocable Purchase Price attributable to the Terminated Property; (B) any Earnest Money allocable to the Terminated Property shall, at Purchaser’s election, either be applied to the payment of the Allocable Purchase Price of any of the Remaining Properties or returned to Purchaser, and (C) both parties shall be relieved from all obligations and liabilities arising hereunder related to the Terminated Property, except for any provisions hereof that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement (and then only to the extent such provisions apply to the Terminated Property). For the avoidance of doubt, if Purchaser exercises its rights with regards to a Terminated Property as contemplated in this Section 14.27(a)(ii), such election shall not be deemed to be a termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with regards to the Remaining Properties, and the Affiliated Purchase Agreements shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding anything herein or in the Affiliated Purchase Agreements to the contrary. If Purchaser elects to close over a Special Casualty or Special Condemnation, the terms of Section 9.2 shall apply.

(b) Purchaser’s Partial Termination Rights as to Affiliated Purchase Agreements.

(i) If Purchaser has a right to terminate, and does terminate, the Sorrel Phillips Creek Ranch Purchase Agreement pursuant to Section 14.27 thereof, then, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, such termination shall apply solely to the Sorrel Phillips Creek Ranch Purchase Agreement, and in such event, this Agreement and the remaining Affiliated Purchase Agreements shall remain in full force and effect.

(ii) If Purchaser has a right to terminate, and does terminate, the Landings at Four Corners Purchase Agreement pursuant to Section 14.27 thereof, then, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, such termination shall apply solely to the Landings at Four Corners Purchase Agreement, and in such event, this Agreement and the remaining Affiliated Purchase Agreements shall remain in full force and effect.

(iii) If Purchaser has a right to terminate, and does terminate, the ARIUM Palms Purchase Agreement pursuant to Section 14.27 thereof, then, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, such termination shall apply solely to the ARIUM Palms Purchase Agreement, and in such event, this Agreement and the remaining Affiliated Purchase Agreements shall remain in full force and effect.

(c) In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Section 14.27 and any other provision of this Agreement, the terms of this Section 14.27 shall control.

SECTION 14.28 Texas Water District Disclosure. THE SOVEREIGN PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN A DISTRICT CREATED BY THE STATE OF TEXAS PROVIDING OR PROPOSING TO PROVIDE, AS THE DISTRICT’S PRINCIPAL FUNCTION, WATER, SEWER, DRAINAGE, AND FLOOD CONTROL OR PROTECTION FACILITIES OR SERVICES. SUCH DISTRICT HAS TAXING AUTHORITY SEPARATE FROM ANY OTHER TAXING AUTHORITY, AND MAY ISSUE BONDS AND/OR LEVY ADDITIONAL TAXES TO PROVIDE UTILITY FACILITIES AND/OR SERVICES WITHIN THE DISTRICT. SUCH DISTRICT ALSO HAS AUTHORITY TO ADOPT AND IMPOSE STANDBY FEES ON PROPERTY IN THE DISTRICT. A DISTRICT MAY EXERCISE AUTHORITY WITHOUT HOLDING AN ELECTION ON THE MATTER. Purchaser acknowledges that Chapter 49 of the Texas Water Code requires such Seller to deliver and Purchaser to sign and deliver the Notice Regarding Texas Water Code at Closing. Purchaser hereby (a) acknowledges receipt of the notice contained in this Section and this Agreement, (b) waives any other rights Purchaser may have under this Agreement or Applicable Law with respect to notice that the Sovereign Property is situated in a utility or other statutorily created district providing water, sewer, drainage or flood control facilities and services, and (c) agrees to execute and deliver Purchaser’s counterpart to the Notice Regarding Texas Water Code at Closing.

Parent JOINDER

This joinder (this “Parent Joinder”) is attached to and made a part of the foregoing Agreement and all terms capitalized but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Agreement. The undersigned, BLUEROCK RESIDENTIAL GROWTH REIT, INC., a Maryland corporation (“Parent”), for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, hereby duly executes with proper authority, joins in the execution of this Agreement, and agrees that it is a party to the Agreement and is jointly and severally liable, as a principal and not as a surety, solely for Sellers’ obligations under Section 10.10 and for any indemnity obligations of any of the Sellers arising under Section 11.1 hereof; provided, however, that any claim brought hereunder must be brought within one hundred eighty (180) days following the Closing Date, failing which, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived and forever renounced any right to assert a claim pursuant to this Parent Joinder under Sections 10.10 and 11.1 for any claim or cause of action under the Agreement, whether at law or in equity. Purchaser shall have the right to proceed directly against Parent without first making written demand to any of the Sellers (and without any obligation to bring suit against any of the Sellers) for the satisfaction of any such obligations.

Parent represents and warrants that its Tangible Net Worth (as hereinafter defined) exceeds the Aggregate Cap Limitation. Until the expiration of the Survival Period (or if Purchaser makes a claim against any Seller during the Survival Period, until the final adjudication (including appeals) or settlement of such claim), Parent shall at all times: (i) remain an entity in good standing and not legally dissolve; (ii) maintain a Tangible Net Worth, measured on a consolidated basis, in an amount not less than the Aggregate Cap Limitation, and (iii) not sell, dispose or make distributions of assets of Parent that would cause a breach of the foregoing financial covenants. “Tangible Net Worth” means the excess of total assets over total liabilities, in each case as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (“GAAP”), excluding, however, from the determination of total assets all assets which would be classified as intangible assets under GAAP including goodwill, licenses, patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, and franchises.

Parent is an indirect owner of each of the Sellers, will derive substantial benefits from the transactions described in the Agreement and acknowledges that the execution of this Parent Joinder is a material inducement and condition to Purchaser’s execution of the Agreement. Parent represents and warrants that it has the legal right, power, authority and capacity to execute this Parent Joinder, that such execution does not violate the organizational documents of, or any other agreement or instrument by which Parent is bound, and that this Parent Joinder is binding and enforceable against Parent. Parent acknowledges and agrees that this Parent Joinder may not be assigned to any other Person without Purchaser’s prior written consent (which may be withheld in Purchaser’s sole discretion) and shall be binding upon Parent’s successors and assigns.

Parent unconditionally waives any guarantor or suretyship defenses that might otherwise be available to it with respect to its obligations under this Parent Joinder. The terms of this Joinder shall survive Closing until the expiration of the Survival Period (as the same may be extended pursuant to Section 11.4).

The provisions set forth in Section 14.1, Section 14.3, and Section 14.5 through Section 14.27, inclusive, of the Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into this Parent Joinder as if fully set forth herein, provided that the undersigned shall be the “Seller” or “Sellers,” as applicable, under such Sections.
