5.4 Survival and Limitations. The Parties’ representations set forth in this Section 5 (and their respective liability for any breach thereof) shall survive Closing and shall not be deemed to merge into any of the Transfer Instruments; provided, however, that after Closing Seller shall have no liability to Buyer for any breach of such representations unless:

5.4.1 The facts constituting such breach have not been disclosed to, discovered by or otherwise become known to Buyer prior to Closing;

5.4.2 Buyer has given Seller written notice claiming such breach, and stating in reasonable detail the factual basis for such claim, within 120 days after the Closing Date; and

If it is reasonably likely that such event or condition can be remedied within 30 days, so as to remove such material inaccuracy, and if Seller undertakes in writing to Buyer, within ten (10) Days after receiving such notice, to use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect such remedy, then so long as it is making such efforts Seller shall have the right to extend the Closing Date by no more than thirty (30) days to complete such remedy and Buyer shall not be entitled, prior to the Closing Date (as so extended) or (if earlier) the cessation of such efforts, to terminate this Agreement by reason of such inaccuracy.

From the Effective Date until Closing, except for emergencies, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Hotel Manager to operate the Hotel in the Ordinary Course (including, without limitation, maintaining insurance policies equivalent in all material respects to those maintained as of the Effective Date) and, subject to the terms of the Hotel Management Agreement, shall not cause, approve or voluntarily permit any material change in the operations of the Hotel without Buyer’s prior written approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), which would:

6.1 Cancel or surrender of any existing Permit for the Hotel.

6.2 Create any lease, mortgage, deed of trust or other encumbrance on Seller’s title to the Hotel.

7. OTHER AGREEMENTS.

7.1 Property Management Agreement; Franchise Agreement.

7.1.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer shall not assume any obligations under the Hotel Management Agreement. Seller shall cause the Hotel Management Agreement to be terminated at Seller’s sole cost and expense as of Closing and shall deliver possession of the Hotel to Buyer free and clear of any possession by or rights of the Hotel Manager; provided, however, Buyer acknowledges that the De-Flagging Activities (defined below) may have to be performed by Seller pursuant to Section 7.1.3. Seller shall remain responsible for all amounts due under the Hotel Management Agreement as of Closing. It is the intent for Buyer to negotiate a new franchise, license or agreement with Hilton to permit the Hotel to maintain the “Hilton” brand after Closing (the “New Hilton Agreement”). Promptly following the Effective Date, Buyer shall submit application to Hilton for the New Hilton Agreement, and shall pay any and all applicable application fees or deposits in connection therewith. The New Hilton Agreement shall be effective upon Closing. Simultaneously with the New Hilton Agreement taking effect, Seller shall cause the Franchise Agreement to be terminated. In the event that Buyer is unable to obtain the New Hilton Agreement on or before the tenth (10th) Business Day prior to Closing, then (i) Seller shall make the termination of the Franchise Agreement effective as of, and conditioned upon, Closing; and (ii) Buyer acknowledges that the De-Flagging Activities (defined below) may have to be performed by Seller pursuant to Section 7.1.2. If, in connection with the termination of the Franchise Agreement hereunder, Seller is required to pay to Hilton liquidated damages in connection with Seller’s termination thereof in the event that Buyer is unable to obtain the New Hilton Agreement then at Closing Buyer shall pay to Seller a sum equal to the amount of such liquidated damages paid by or due from Seller.

7.1.2 In connection with the termination of the Franchise Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.1.2, certain activities (“De-Flagging Activities”) must be performed, including (without limitation), disconnecting the Hotel from the Hilton reservation system, termination of the Hilton website for the Hotel and removal from the Hotel Premises of all Hilton marks and protected designs. If the Franchise Agreement is terminated at Closing, during the period beginning immediately after Closing and ending ten (10) Business Days after Closing, Seller shall have access to the Hotel to perform the De-Flagging Activities. Buyer shall not operate the Hotel in violation of Hilton’s marks. Buyer shall Indemnify Seller from and against any Claim against Seller caused by or arising out of Buyer’s breach of the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 7.1.2. If Buyer obtains the New Hilton Agreement, which includes consent of Hilton to the sale of the Hotel pursuant to this Agreement without termination of the right to use the Hilton brand and system in its operation of the Hotel after Closing, and if Buyer at Closing enters into the New Hilton Agreement, Seller shall not be responsible for the De-Flagging Activities under this Section 7.1.2, and Buyer shall be responsible for performing, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, any de-flagging activities required of Buyer under the New Hilton Agreement (or other license to use the Hilton Brand and System) upon the expiration of the term thereof.

7.2 Property of Guests. All baggage or other items checked or left in the care of Seller, and any items in the “Lost and Found Bin” will be listed in an inventory, prepared

Page 18

in duplicate and signed by representatives of Seller and Buyer on the Closing Date. Buyer will be responsible from and after the Closing for all property so listed and shall hold harmless, indemnify and defend Seller, from and against any and all Claims arising out of the subsequent loss of or damage to such listed property. Seller shall indemnify Buyer from and against any and all Claims arising out of any loss of or damage to property of guests at the Hotel prior to the Closing or not so listed in such inventory. Seller and Buyer shall use reasonable efforts to have Hotel guests who have left items in any of the Hotel’s safe deposit boxes (not including in-room safes) confirm on the Closing Date that no such items are missing, but Seller shall not be deemed liable for any guest Claim made after the Closing Date with respect to items allegedly left in a Hotel safe deposit box before Closing merely because such items could not be listed on the above-described inventory.

7.3 Assumption of Existing Loan. Buyer agrees to purchase the Hotel subject to the Existing Loan and shall, within five (5) Business Days of the Effective Date, submit application to Existing Lender for the Existing Loan Assumption Consent and shall simultaneously provide copies of all application materials and ongoing correspondence between Buyer and Existing Lender to Seller specifically relating to the Existing Loan Assumption Consent; provided that such correspondence is not otherwise privileged or proprietary. In connection with such application, Buyer shall provide to Lender all information customarily or reasonably required in connection with such a loan assumption and deliver to Lender all documentation reasonably required of Buyer and Replacement Guarantor in connection with such loan assumption. Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy Lender’s requirements for the Existing Loan Assumption Consent before the Closing Date. Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate with Buyer’s efforts to obtain the Existing Loan Assumption Consent. Buyer shall Indemnify Seller and Existing Guarantor from and against any and all Claims that Seller incurs by reason of any alleged default on the part of Buyer under the Existing Loan and the Existing Loan Documents, where the allegation of such default is based on an event or condition which occurred or arose (or is alleged to have occurred or arisen) after Closing. Seller shall Indemnify Buyer and Replacement Guarantor from and against any and all Claims that Buyer incurs by reason of any alleged default on the part of Seller under the Existing Loan and the Existing Loan Documents, where the allegation of such default is based on an event or condition which occurred or arose (or is alleged to have occurred or arisen) before Closing. The indemnification set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall not be limited by the provisions of Section 19.2 below. If the Parties are unable to obtain the Existing Loan Assumption Consent before the Closing Date, either Party shall have the right to extend the Closing Date by delivering one or more written notices to the other at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the then scheduled Closing Date to a date not later than March 31, 2011 (the “Outside Closing Date”). If after any extended time, the Parties have been unable to obtain the Existing Loan Assumption Consent, then Buyer shall be obligated to proceed to Closing, the Existing Loan shall be paid off in full at Closing and Buyer shall be responsible for an amount not to exceed the loan assumption fee that Buyer would have paid Existing Lender in connection with the Existing Loan Assumption Consent (but in no event more than a sum equal to 1% of the outstanding balance of the Existing Loan), which amount shall be paid to Seller to be applied towards any prepayment and/or yield maintenance fee Seller must pay to Existing Lender in connection therewith (the “Prepayment Fee”). In the event that the Closing Date is extended pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7.3 and Buyer elects by written notice to Seller to complete the transaction contemplated hereunder prior to the Outside Closing Date

Page 19

notwithstanding that the Existing Loan Assumption Consent has not been obtained (an “Early Closing”), then Buyer shall pay the entire Prepayment Fee due and payable under the Existing Loan Documents.

7.4 Right to Audit. Buyer may, at its sole cost and expense, engage a third-party certified public accountant to perform audits of the books and records (the “Audit”) of the Hotel for the immediate two calendar years prior to the Closing Date, including the historical financial statements of the Hotel, which audits shall include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles and the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, specifically in accordance with Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X and all related rules and regulations thereof. Seller shall, at no cost to Seller, request Hotel Manager’s cooperation in connection with the performance of such audits, and shall provide, or request Hotel Manager to provide, all information reasonably requested by such accountants (except any information that Seller or Hotel Manager deem confidential), at no cost or expense to Seller or Hotel Manager. In connection with such audits, Seller shall request Hotel Manager to provide the accountants performing such audits with a commercially reasonable representation letter, in form and substance acceptable to Seller and Hotel Manager, at no cost or expense to Seller or Hotel Manager. The failure of the Hotel Manager to so cooperate, or provide such representation letter, shall not constitute a failure to perform by Seller hereunder and Buyer shall have no recourse to Seller in such event. The agreements of Seller and Hotel Manager set forth in this Section 7.4 shall survive Closing for a period of one (1) year.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the exercise of Buyer’s rights under this Section 7.4:

(i) affect Buyer’s obligations and agreements under this Agreement, including, without limitation, Buyer’s obligation to Close in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

(ii) provide Buyer with the right to terminate this Agreement; or

(iii) affect the Purchase Price, any pro-rations, credits or other adjustments set forth in Section 8 or otherwise under this Agreement.

Furthermore, the Buyer, its employees, agents, consultants and any other person or entity claiming by, through or under Buyer (a) shall have no Claims against Seller Releasees and/or Hotel Manager as a result of the Audit, and (b) hereby waive and release any Claims against Seller Releasees and/or Hotel Manager that may arise from, or as a result of, the Audit.

7.5 Cooperation. Seller shall, at no cost or expense to Seller, and shall request Hotel Manager to, at no cost or expense to Hotel Manager, reasonably assist and cooperate with Buyer in Buyer’s efforts to obtain a liquor license for the same category of liquor consumption as presently offered at the Premises.

Page 20

8. PRORATIONS, CREDITS AND OTHER ADJUSTMENTS. At Closing, the Parties shall make the prorations and other adjustments provided below, and the net amount consequently owing to Seller or Buyer shall be added to or subtracted from the proceeds of the Purchase Price payable to Seller at Closing. Beginning as close to the anticipated Closing Date as practicable, Seller shall, in consultation with Buyer and with Buyer’s reasonable cooperation, cause to be prepared a prorations and credits statement (the “Preliminary Statement”) which shall reflect all of the prorations, credits and other adjustments in payment at Closing required under this Section 8 or under any other provision of this Agreement. As soon as the Parties have agreed upon the Preliminary Statement, they shall jointly deliver a mutually signed copy thereof to Escrow Agent. To the extent the Parties are unable to agree by Closing on any item on the Preliminary Statement, Seller’s estimation of such item shall be used and such item shall be finally resolved on the Final Statement pursuant to Section 11.

8.1 Proration of Taxes. All real estate ad valorem taxes, general assessments and special assessments and all personal property ad valorem taxes assessed against the Hotel (generically, “Taxes”) and payable during the tax year in which Closing occurs shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date. Taxes, which become due and payable during any following tax year, even if assessed with respect to the current tax year, shall be the responsibility of Buyer. Taxes shall be subject to readjustment to reflect the agreed upon proration provided herein in the event any abatement for the tax year in which Closing occurs has not been settled, provided that neither party shall have the obligation to pursue any abatement of Taxes.

8.2 Proration of Expenses. The following items of expense with respect to any portion or aspect of the Hotel shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date:

8.2.1 Periodic charges under Assumed Contracts (such as monthly rents or fixed periodic charges), but not charges made on a per-order or per-call basis.

8.2.2 Utility charges (but excluding any utility deposits). To the extent reasonably practicable, though, in lieu of prorating the charges for any metered utility service, the Parties shall endeavor to have the utility read the meter as early as possible on the Closing Date, render a final bill to Seller based on such reading and bill all subsequent service to Buyer.

8.2.3 Employee Liabilities for wages, salary, benefit payments and payroll taxes for the pay period(s) in which Closing occurs and for accrued Employee Leave, except to the extent that Seller is required by applicable Law or otherwise elects to determine and itself pay such liabilities accrued through the day preceding Closing.

8.2.5 Accrued interest on the Existing Loan.

Page 21

8.3 Proration of Hotel Revenues.

8.3.1 Guest Ledger. The open account (“Guest Ledger Account”) for each person who is a guest at the Hotel as of midnight on the day immediately preceding Closing (“Closing Eve”) shall be closed and settled as follows:

8.3.1.1 Room and service charges (including, without limitation, room service charges and in-house movie fees) and parking charges (collectively, the “Charges”) through Closing Eve shall be retained by Seller. Buyer shall receive a credit equal to Twenty Dollars ($20.00) for each guest room that is occupied on the morning of Closing. The Charges accruing from and after the Closing Date shall belong to Buyer.

8.3.1.2 Gift shop revenues through Closing Eve shall be retained by Seller. Commencing on the Closing Date, gift shop revenues shall belong to Buyer.

8.3.1.3 Other charges shall be allocated between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date, based on the time such charges were actually incurred.

8.3.2 Other Operating Revenues. Other operating revenues not otherwise provided for in this Section 8, shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of Closing.

8.3.3 Other Receivables. This sale does not include any accounts receivable for room, food and beverage and other sales and services at or from the Hotel for the period through the Closing Date (the “Accounts Receivable”), which remains the sole property of Seller. Seller shall have the right to receive, collect, discharge and compromise all Accounts Receivable. Buyer shall cause its hotel manager to use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to collect the Accounts Receivable and agrees that any Accounts Receivable received by Buyer or its hotel manager after the Closing from any party owing any portion thereof (including credit card sales when payment thereon is received by Buyer), net of any reasonable collection costs, credit card service fees or travel agent’s commissions which may be owed in connection therewith, shall be promptly remitted to Seller . Any payment at or relating to the Hotel which is received or recovered after Closing from a person who then owes amounts both on such a Seller-retained receivable and on an account to the Hotel accruing after Closing shall be applied to the invoice(s) specified by the payor (and, if the payor makes such payment without reference to a specific invoice, then such payment shall then be applied first to the latest accruing accounts).

8.4 Hotel Payables. At Closing, Buyer shall receive a proration credit equal to the excess of (A) the aggregate estimated amount of all Hotel Payables in the Preliminary Statement over (B) Buyer’s prorated share of such Hotel Payables under this Section 8, and Buyer shall assume the obligation to satisfy Hotel Payables (1) included in such estimate (as evidenced by a schedule which Seller shall prepare and submit to Buyer as part of the Preliminary Statement) and (2) which otherwise are identified within the 90-day period

Page 22

following Closing. After Closing, before paying any amount invoiced or otherwise claimed by a third party due with respect to the Hotel operations prior to Closing which is not included on such schedule (or is claimed in an amount larger than that shown on such schedule), Buyer shall first submit such invoice or claim to Seller. Unless Seller, within 15 days after receiving such submission, objects to such invoice or claim (thereby making it a Disputed Payable), Buyer may pay the same and take a credit for such payment on the Final Statement. Seller shall remain responsible for all Disputed Payables and for all Hotel Payables that are neither included on such schedule nor identified within the 90-day period following Closing.

8.5 Other Credits to Buyer.

8.5.1 Credit for Reservation Deposits. Buyer shall receive a proration credit equal to the aggregate amount of all outstanding Reservation Deposits.

Seller shall receive a proration credit equal to Seller’s cost of all (i) goods then held by Seller for sale to Hotel guests and others in the Ordinary Course, (ii) unopened food and beverage Inventories, to the extent allowed by law and (iii) gift shop Inventories.

8.6.4 Credit for Impound and Reserve Accounts. Seller shall receive a proration credit equal to the amount of all impound and/or reserve accounts to the extent not returned to Seller by Existing Lender and still required by Existing Lender to be maintained by Buyer.

After Closing, Seller shall not have any right to terminate this Agreement or rescind its purchase of the Hotel by reason of the failure of any such condition, whether or not such failure was known to or discoverable by Seller prior to Closing.

9.3 Pre Closing Damage or Destruction.

9.3.1 Termination Rights. Seller agrees to give Buyer prompt notice of any Casualty occurring at the Hotel between the Effective Date and the Closing Date; provided, however, that Seller shall not be deemed to be in default under this Section 9.3.1 for failure to report minor incidents causing insignificant damage. If, prior to Closing, a material Casualty occurs, Buyer shall have the right, at its election, to terminate this Agreement, by written notice given to the Seller prior to the Closing Date. If a material Casualty occurs fewer than ten (10) Business Days before the Closing Date, Buyer shall have the right to extend the Closing Date until the tenth (10th) Business Day after the occurrence of such Casualty in order to make the election permitted by this Section.

9.3.2 If No Termination. If a Casualty occurs and Buyer either does not have or elects not to exercise the right under Section 9.3.1 to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall continue in force and, upon Closing, Buyer shall receive:

(i) a credit against the Purchase Price equal to (A) the amount, if any, of Proceeds received by Seller prior to Closing in connection with such Casualty, plus (B) the lesser of the “deductible” or self retained limit under the property hazard insurance covering the Hotel Premises or the reasonably estimated cost of repairing, restoring or replacing the portion of the Hotel Premises damaged or destroyed by such Casualty, minus (C) the amount (if any) actually expended by Seller to repair, restore or replace the damaged portions of the Hotel Premises; and

(ii) an assignment of Seller’s rights to all Proceeds which may then be or thereafter become payable.

If the credit formula specified in subparagraph (i) above results in a negative number, then Seller (rather than Buyer) shall be entitled to a credit, in the amount by which (i) the amount actually expended by Seller to repair, restore or replace the damaged portions of the Hotel Premises exceeds (ii) the Proceeds received by Seller; but if such credit to Seller would exceed the amount of Proceeds assigned to Buyer at Closing (or if there are no Proceeds to assign), then Seller shall instead retain the right to receive such Proceeds (if any) and receive no credit.

9.3.3 Material Part. For purposes of this Section 9.3, a Casualty shall be deemed material if the extent of the damage, destruction or taking (measured by the cost of repairing or replacing the damaged or destroyed portion of the Hotel Premises or the fair market value of the taken portion of the Hotel Premises) exceeds fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price.

10. CLOSING.

10.1 Time, Place and Manner. Closing shall occur on or before the Closing Date, through Escrow, at the offices of the Escrow Agent (the “Place of Closing”). In order to confirm concurrent delivery of the Purchase Price and delivery of title to the Hotel Premises,

Pacific Time on the Business Day that is before the Closing Date (the “Funds Deadline”), good and immediately available funds in an amount (when added to the Deposit) equal at least to the sum of (A) the Purchase Price, plus (B) Buyer’s share of Closing costs to be paid through Escrow, plus or minus (C) the net amount owing Seller or Buyer (as the case may be) under Section 8, as shown by the Preliminary Statement. Time is of the essence with respect to Buyer’s delivery of such funds by the Funds Deadline.

10.3.1.2 Such documents as the Escrow Agent or the Title Company may reasonably require (provided the same do not cause Buyer to incur any cost or liability) from Buyer in order to effect Closing in accordance with this Agreement.

10.5.2 As soon as Escrow Agent confirms to the Parties that the Title Company is irrevocably committed to issue the Title Policy to Buyer, the Parties through their respective Transactors or Counsel shall instruct Escrow Agent to disburse funds from Escrow as follows:

10.5.2.1 Disburse to Seller, in such respective amounts as Seller shall designate to Escrow Agent in writing before Closing, the sum of (A) the Purchase Price, minus (B) Seller’s share of Closing costs to be paid through Escrow, plus or minus (C) the net amount owing to Seller or Buyer (as the case may be) under Section 8, as shown by the Preliminary Statement.

10.9 Procedure for Termination of Escrow. Upon any termination of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall each promptly give Escrow Agent written instructions to cancel Escrow and disburse the Deposit and all other funds and items (if any) then held in Escrow in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, following termination of this Agreement, the Parties give Escrow Agent conflicting instructions or one of the Parties fails to give Escrow Agent instructions:

10.9.1 Escrow Agent shall promptly notify each Party in writing of such conflicting instructions or of one Party’s failure to give instructions, and request that such conflict or omission be promptly resolved.

10.9.2 Where one Party has failed to give instruction, unless Escrow Agent receives written instructions from such Party within five (5) Business Days after giving notice of such failure, Escrow Agent shall be free to comply with the instructions given by the other Party and both Parties shall hold harmless, indemnify and defend Escrow Agent from any claim or liability resulting from such compliance.

10.9.3 Where the Parties have given conflicting instructions, Escrow Agent shall take no action to cancel Escrow or deliver funds or items out of Escrow except pursuant to further, joint written instructions from the Parties or a final court order or judgment.

The Parties, jointly and severally, shall hold harmless and indemnify Escrow Agent from and against any claim, liability and expenses resulting from such interpleader action (but, as between Seller and Buyer, the costs of such interpleader action shall be assessed in accordance with Section 16.9).

11. POST CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS.

11.1 Final Closing Statement. No later than ninety (90) days after Closing, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a final Closing statement (the “Final Statement”), which shall correct the estimates and (if necessary) other amounts used in the Preliminary Statement, based on the Hotel’s operating reports for the month immediately preceding Closing and the month in which Closing occurred, on Buyer’s own post Closing examination of the books and records of the Hotel and on other relevant facts discovered after Closing.

11.2 Disputes. If Seller gives timely and proper notice of objection to any item(s) on the Final Statement, and Seller and Buyer are unable between themselves to resolve each such item within thirty (30) days after Buyer delivers the Final Statement to Seller, then any Party may submit the unresolved items to a mutually agreeable national accounting firm (or, if the Parties are unable to agree on such firm within forty (40) days after Buyer delivers the Final Statement to Seller or such firm is unwilling to handle the dispute, to a qualified neutral party designated by the American Arbitration Association office located in Seattle, Washington) for a determination which shall be binding and conclusive upon all Parties and shall be deemed incorporated into the Final Statement. Seller and Buyer shall pay in equal shares the fees and other expenses of such accounting firm or other designated neutral party for making such determination.

11.3 Settlement. Within ten (10) Business Days after the Final Statement has been agreed (or deemed agreed) between Seller and Buyer or after the last timely objection by Seller has been resolved under Section 11.2, Buyer or Seller (as the case may be) shall pay to the other the net amount shown to be due to such Party on the Final Statement, as agreed or as modified by the resolution of such objections. Except for mathematical error manifest on the face of the Final Statement, no further adjustments or payments shall be required with respect to such prorations, credits and other adjustments.

12. THIRD PARTY CLAIMS AND OBLIGATIONS.

12.1 Assumed and Retained Liabilities. Buyer shall Indemnify Seller from and against any and all Claims that Seller incurs by reason of any obligation or liability assumed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation (A) Employee Liabilities assumed by Buyer expressly hereunder, (B) the Assumed Contracts, (C) the Hotel Payables, and (D) Reservations. Seller shall Indemnify Buyer from and against any and all Claims that Buyer incurs by reason of any obligation or liability retained by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation (i) Employee Liabilities retained by Seller and (ii) Disputed Payables.

Page 30

12.2 Employee Liabilities.

12.2.1 Buyer’s Obligations. Upon Closing Buyer shall:

12.2.1.1 Offer (or cause the manager selected by Buyer to offer) employment at the Hotel in the same position or job classification and at no less than the same wage rate or salary as such Hotel Employee held and enjoyed immediately prior to Closing, and with reasonably equivalent benefits to a sufficient number of Hotel Employees as is necessary to prevent the Seller from incurring any indemnification loss under the WARN Act with respect to the Hotel Employees. Buyer shall cause each such offer to be expressly conditioned upon the Hotel Employee’s signing a written application form, in which such employee accepts the offer of new employment and concurrently gives Hotel Manager notice that he or she is termination employment with Hotel Manger, effective as of Closing.

12.2.1.2 Assume (A) all Employee Liabilities with respect to the Continuing Employees accruing or first arising on and after the Closing Date, or triggered by a termination of employment after Closing (except to the extent that such Employee Liabilities arise under or relate to any Hotel Employee Plan sponsored or maintained by Seller or Hotel Manager), (B) all Employee Liabilities accrued as of Closing for which Buyer has received a proration credit under Section 8.

12.2.2 Seller’s Obligations. Seller shall cause Hotel Manager to terminate the employment of all Hotel Employees effective as of Closing. Seller Indemnifies Buyer from and against any and all Claims arising out of any and all (A) Employee Liabilities with respect to Continuing Employees accruing prior to Closing (except those which are triggered by a termination of employment after Closing or for which Buyer has received a credit under Section 8) and (B) Employee Liabilities with respect to Hotel Employees who are not Continuing Employees.

12.2.3 WARN Act Liability. Buyer acknowledges that, in light of Buyer’s intention to continue operation of the Hotel with substantially the same staff after Closing and the Parties’ desire for a prompt Closing, it is Buyer’s interest that Seller not take the precautionary step of giving Hotel Employees notice of possible termination of employment at the Hotel under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988 (the “WARN Act”). Accordingly, Seller shall not give such notice with respect to the sale of the Hotel to Buyer, and Buyer shall Indemnify Seller from and against any and all Claims arising out of real or alleged violation of the WARN Act for failure to give such notice to the extent based on Buyer’s failure, on and after the Closing Date, to offer employment at the Hotel to Eligible Employees in accordance with Section 12.2.1.

12.3 Indemnification of Related Persons. Any indemnification of a Party against third person Claims contained herein shall also run in favor of such Party’s partners, shareholders, beneficial owners, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents and managers (including, without limitation, Hotel Manager), all of whom are intended by the Parties to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 12.

Page 31

12.4 Survival. The Parties’ indemnities set forth in this Section 12 and elsewhere in this Agreement shall survive Closing and shall not be deemed to merge into any of the Transfer Instruments; provided, however, Seller’s liability shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 19.2.

13. HOTEL RECORDS. As reasonably required for tax filings, preparation and auditing of financial statements, other reporting and similar purposes, Seller shall have the right to make and retain copies of the Hotel Records which are transferred to Buyer at Closing and to disclose information contained therein. Buyer shall also make the Hotel Records available to Seller and its authorized representatives at the Hotel, at reasonable times and upon reasonable prior notice, and allow Seller to make copies thereof; and Buyer shall not dispose of any Hotel Records prior to the fifth anniversary of Closing without giving Seller at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice and opportunity to recover the same.

14. ASSIGNMENT. Neither this agreement nor any of Buyer’s rights hereunder may be assigned, encumbered or transferred without Seller’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to Closing, Buyer shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights under this Agreement to a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity which is wholly owned and controlled, directly or indirectly, by Buyer, provided Buyer gives Seller at least five (5) days’ prior written notice of such assignment and that such assignee concurrently with such assignment assumes, in a written instrument delivered and satisfactory in form to Seller, all of the obligations and liabilities of Buyer hereunder. Buyer shall remain fully and primarily liable for all its obligations under this Agreement notwithstanding any such assignment.

15. NOTICES. Except in the case (if any) where this Agreement expressly provides for an alternate form of communication, any notice, consent, demand or other communication to be delivered to a Party hereunder shall be deemed delivered and received when made in writing and transmitted to the applicable Party either by receipted courier service, or by the United States Postal Service, first class registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, by electronic facsimile transmission (“Fax”), at the address or addresses indicated for such party below (and/or to such other address as such party may from time to time by written notice designate to the other):

19. LIMITATION ON SELLER’S LIABILITY.

19.1 Seller’s Breach of Obligation to Close. In the event Seller in breach of this Agreement fails to close, and such failure is not due to Buyer’s default, Buyer, as its sole and exclusive remedy may either (a) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit and neither party shall have any further right or obligation hereunder other than obligations which expressly survive termination of this Agreement, or (b) pursue the remedy of specific performance of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) Buyer shall only be entitled to such remedy if (A) any such suit for specific performance is filed within sixty (60) days after Buyer becomes aware of the default by Seller, (B) Buyer is not in default under this Agreement, (C) Buyer has tendered an amount equal to twenty five percent (25%) of the Purchase Price to the Escrow Agent in immediately available funds and the Escrow Agent has acknowledged receipt of same, in writing, to Seller, and (D) Buyer has furnished five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to Seller of its intent and election to seek specific enforcement of this Agreement; and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall not be obligated to expend any sums to cure any defaults under this Agreement and if Buyer seeks specific performance under this Agreement, Buyer agrees to accept the Hotel in its “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition as set forth in this Agreement. Buyer hereby agrees that prior to its exercise of any rights or remedies as a result of any defaults by Seller as provided in this Section 19.1, Buyer will first deliver written notice of said default to Seller, and if Seller so elects, Seller shall have the opportunity, but not the obligation, to cure such default within ten (10) days after Seller’s receipt of such notice. In no event whatsoever shall Buyer file any lis pendens or other instrument of record against title to the Hotel Premises, or otherwise creates any cloud on Seller’s title to the Hotel Premises. Buyer shall Indemnify Seller from and against all costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and losses which Seller incurs by reason of Buyer’s violation of the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, in no event whatsoever shall Buyer have the right to seek money damages of any kind as a result of any default by Seller under any of the terms of this Agreement except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. In no event shall Seller be liable to Buyer for any punitive, speculative or consequential damages.

19.2 Other Seller’s Breaches. Seller shall have no liability to Buyer under the indemnities contained in Section 12 or elsewhere, or for breach of any covenant, representation

Page 36

or warranty contained in Section 5.1 or elsewhere, or otherwise, unless Buyer has given Seller written notice of a specific indemnity claim or claim of breach, stating in reasonable detail the factual basis for such claim, within 120 days after the Closing Date, and unless Buyer commences legal action on such claim, and serves Seller with notice of such claim in accordance with applicable Law, within 180 days after the Closing Date. Further, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) Seller shall in no event be liable to Buyer for any such claim unless and until the aggregate amount of Buyer’s actual out-of-pocket losses from all such valid claims exceeds $50,000, and (ii) in no event shall the aggregate amount of Seller’s liability exceed two percent of the Purchase Price. The limitations in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 19.2 are in addition to, and not in derogation of, the limitations in Section 5.4.3 with respect to Seller’s liability for breaches of its representations and warranties.
