If rents or any portion thereof received by the Buyer or the Companies after the Closing are payable to the Sellers by reason of this allocation, the appropriate sum shall be promptly paid to the Sellers. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, with respect to Tenants who are not, at the time in question, in occupancy of any portion of the Real Property, the Sellers shall have the right to pursue such Tenants to collect delinquencies for periods prior to the Closing (including, without limitation, by the prosecution of an Action or Proceeding). The Sellers shall furnish to the Buyer accurate information (based on the Sellers’ and the Companies’ records) relating to the period prior to the Closing that is reasonably necessary for the billing of delinquent Fixed Rents for Tenants, who are, at the time in question, in occupancy of a portion of the Real Property. The Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any such delinquent rents allocable to the period of the Sellers’ ownership of the Real Property.

(f)    Additional Rents.

Subject to subsection (ii) below, if any Additional Rents are collected by the Buyer or the Companies after the Closing Date which are attributable in whole or in part to any period prior to the Closing, then the Buyer shall promptly pay to the Sellers their proportionate share thereof. With respect to any estimated Additional Rents paid or payable by Tenants for any period prior to the Closing which, pursuant to the applicable Lease, are to be recalculated after the Closing based upon actual expenses and other relevant factors,

(1)    the Sellers shall, with respect to such adjustments which are in favor of any such Tenant, pay to the Buyer the amount of such adjustment (after which the Buyer shall pay directly to the Tenant in question), within fifteen (15) days after written demand and presentation to the Sellers of documentation in support of such adjustments, and

(2)    the Buyer shall, with respect to such adjustments which are in favor of landlord, pay to the Sellers the amount of such adjustments which the Tenant pays to the Buyer or the Companies, within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof by the Buyer. The Buyer shall cause the Companies, in accordance with prudent first class management and operation of the Real Property, for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date, bill Tenants such Additional Rents attributable to an accounting period that shall have expired prior to the Closing in the same manner that the Buyer causes the Companies to bill Tenants for Additional Rents in respect of an accounting period that shall expire after the Closing (including without limitation, the annual “true up” at the end of each calendar year).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to Tenants who are not, at the time in question, in occupancy of any portion of the Real Property, the Sellers shall have the right to pursue such Tenants to collect delinquencies for periods prior to the Closing (including, without limitation, by the prosecution of an action or proceeding) and (B) with respect to Tenants who are, at the time in question, in occupancy of a portion of the Real Property, the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any such delinquent Additional Rents allocable to the period of the Sellers’ ownership of the Companies. The Sellers shall furnish to the Buyer accurate information (based on the Sellers’ and the Companies’ records) relating to the period prior to the Closing that is reasonably necessary for the billing of delinquent Additional Rents for Tenants, who are, at the time in question, in occupancy of a portion of the Real Property. Until the date which is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall cause the Companies to bill Tenants for Additional Rents for accounting periods prior to the Closing in accordance with and on the basis of such information furnished by the Sellers. Subsequent to the Closing, the Sellers shall have the right no more than once each quarter during such period, on reasonable advance notice to the Buyer, during ordinary business hours, to review the Companies’ books and records relating to delinquent Additional Rents for periods prior to the Closing, to the extent reasonably necessary to ascertain the status of the Buyer’s and the Companies’ billing and collection of such delinquent Additional Rents. Buyer will not take any action that could reasonably be expected to result in the compromise of any claim against any Tenant with respect to Fixed Rents due under such Tenant’s Lease for the period prior to the Closing.

(ii)    (A) Any Additional Rents collected by the Buyer or the Companies after the Closing from Tenants who owe Additional Rents for periods prior to the Closing (to the extent not applied against Fixed Rents due and payable by such Tenant in accordance with Section 2.4(e) above) shall be applied to Additional Rents due and payable in the following order of priority: (B) first, to the payment of Additional Rents for the month in which the Closing Date occurs, with such amounts being prorated between the Buyer and Seller based upon the number of days each owned the Companies during the month in which the Closing occurs; (C) second, in payment of Additional Rents for the month immediately preceding the month in which the Closing occurs; (D) third, in payment of Additional Rents for any months which commenced after the Closing occurs, but only to the extent payments of Additional Rents for such month are then currently due; and (E) fourth, in payment of Additional Rents for months preceding the month immediately prior to the month in which the Closing occurs, provided, if a Tenant on its own designates that a payment by such Tenant shall be applied to a specific outstanding Additional Rent obligation of such Tenant (without a request from the Companies or Buyer to make such designation), then such payment shall be applied to such obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any funds collected by the Buyer or the Companies for Additional Rents as the result of an end of calendar year “true up” that are in favor of landlord shall be divided between the Sellers and the Buyer based upon the number of months each owned the Companies for such calendar year.

(2)    With respect to delinquencies or sums due the Sellers for periods prior to the Closing, until the date which is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall furnish to the Sellers not less frequently on a calendar quarter basis (within forty-five (45) days after the end of each quarter) a reasonably detailed accounting of the amounts paid by Tenants and the amounts due to the Sellers from the Buyer. The Sellers shall have the right no more frequently than once each quarter during such period, on reasonably prior written notice to the Buyer, during ordinary business hours, to review the rental records of the Companies with respect to delinquent Additional Rents for periods prior to the Closing to the extent reasonably necessary to ascertain the accuracy of such accountings.

(g)    Tenant Security Deposits. The Sellers shall grant to the Buyer a credit in an amount equal to the aggregate of the unapplied cash Tenant Security Deposits (as hereinafter defined) under the Leases that are not in the accounts of the Companies at the Closing, including all accrued interest thereon to the extent any Tenant may be entitled to receive such amounts in connection with the refund of any such deposit. Security Deposits applied after the Closing Date shall be held or applied as determined by the Buyer in its discretion, provided, that if the Buyer applies any such Security Deposit against delinquent Fixed Rent or Additional Rent under a Lease, the Buyer shall apply such amounts to delinquent Fixed Rent and Additional Rent pursuant to the terms of subsections (e) and (f) hereof.

To the extent that the actual amounts paid by 800 Cottontail with respect to the Construction Work at or prior to the Closing exceed five million dollars ($5,000,000), Sellers shall receive a credit equal to the difference between the actual amounts paid by 800 Cottontail with respect to the Construction Work at or prior to the Closing and five million dollars ($5,000,000).

For purposes of calculating prorations, the Buyer shall be deemed to be the owner of the Companies and the Real Property, and therefore entitled to the income therefrom and responsible for the expenses thereof for the entire day upon which the Closing occurs, and thereafter all such prorations shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days of the month which shall have elapsed as of the day of the Closing and based upon the actual number of days in the month and a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year.

The Sellers and the Buyer shall cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to make such adjustments within one hundred fifty (150) days after the Closing Date. No later than ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the Sellers shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Buyer a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth the Sellers’ good faith determination of all adjustments to the Proration Statement it believes are necessary to correct the prorations as reflected in the Proration Statement, which Closing Statement shall be accompanied with reasonable supporting information. The Closing Statement, and the amounts set forth therein, shall be final and binding on the Buyer and the Sellers unless, within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Buyer of the Closing Statement, the Buyer shall deliver a written notice to the Sellers of its disagreement with the calculation of any of the prorations and the substance of any disagreement asserted in reasonable detail (the “Notice of Disagreement”). The Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement, other than as specified in the Notice of Disagreement. If the Notice of Disagreement is timely delivered by the Buyer as provided herein, the Buyer and Sellers shall, during the thirty (30) days following delivery of the Notice of Disagreement, use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts set forth in the Notice of Disagreement. After the Closing and until any disputes with respect to the Closing Statement are resolved in accordance with this Section 2.4(q), The Sellers shall provide the Buyer and their Representatives, at the Buyer’s expense, upon the prior written request of the Buyer, reasonable access to the Sellers’ work papers, to the extent used in the preparation of the Closing Statement, and the Sellers shall make reasonably available to the Buyer and their Representatives, relevant personnel at the Sellers responsible for the preparation of the Closing Statement, in each case, to the extent reasonably necessary for, and for the sole purpose of, assisting in the Buyer’s review of the Closing Statement. If the Sellers and the Buyer are unable to resolve the items in the Notice of Disagreement within thirty (30) days after the Buyer’s delivery of such Notice of Disagreement, then the Sellers and the Buyer shall mutually engage and submit such dispute to, and the same shall be finally resolved in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement by the Accounting Referee. The Accounting Referee shall determine and report in writing to the Sellers and the Buyer as to the resolution of all disputed matters and the effect of such determinations on the Closing Statement within thirty (30) days after such submission or such longer period as the Accounting Referee may reasonably require, and such determinations shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court of competent jurisdiction. The fees and disbursements of the Accounting Referee shall be borne by the party (i.e., the Sellers, on the one hand, or the Buyer, on the other hand) that assigned amounts to items in dispute that were, on a net basis, furthest in amount from the amount finally determined by the Accounting Referee (or equally in the event the parties’ assigned amounts were, on a net basis, equally far from the amount finally determined by the Accounting Referee). The Sellers and the Buyer shall mutually revise the Closing Statement to effect their mutual agreement or the Accounting Referee’s determinations, as applicable, with respect to the disputed items, and such revised Closing Statement shall be final and binding upon the parties.

(r)    Payment of the Companies’ Work. To the extent the Companies shall have performed or supervised work on behalf of Tenants prior to the Closing Date (including so-called “remote hands” work), the Companies, on behalf of the Sellers, shall directly invoice the Tenants for such work. The Buyer shall reasonably cooperate in assisting the Sellers in collecting amounts owed by Tenants with respect to such work (and shall, as requested by the Sellers in writing, cause the Companies to direct Tenants to pay the Sellers directly with respect to such services). To the extent any such amounts are paid to the Buyer or the Companies, the Buyer shall promptly pay such amounts to Seller, without causing such amounts to be applied pursuant to the terms of Section 2.4(e) and (f). The Sellers shall have the right to direct the Companies to pursue Tenants to collect such amounts and, if requested by the Sellers, the Buyer shall cause the Companies to take all reasonably necessary actions against a Tenant to collect the same, provided that the Buyer or the Companies shall not be required to pursue an unlawful detainer, eviction, termination of Lease or similar proceeding. With respect to any such work related to an ongoing project where the work is performed both prior to and following the Closing, Seller shall pay the portion of such work completed prior to closing (based on the percentage of the project completed prior to Closing) and shall receive a corresponding percentage of the aggregate amounts paid by the Tenant related to such work (for instance, if a project on behalf of a Tenant is 60% complete at Closing, Seller shall pay 60% of the costs related to such project and shall be entitled to receive 60% of the aggregate amounts paid by such Tenant related to such project). This Section 2.4(r) is intended to apply to non-recurring charges payable by a Tenant under a Lease and in no event shall there be any proration under this Section 2.4(r) for recurring rent payable by a Tenant.

All offers of employment by the Employer to the CBA Employees will be contingent on the CBA Employees successfully completing any criminal background checks and drug testing required by Employer. If any CBA Employee does not successfully complete the criminal background checks or drug testing required by the Employer, Buyer shall cause the Employer to contact the Union to provide a substitute applicant for that position; provided, that the substitute applicant will be subject to full employment vetting by the Employer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

Prior to the Closing, the Sellers will, and will cause the Companies to, permit the Buyer, directly or through its Affiliates or Representatives, to review (during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice, and without interfering in the operations of the Companies’ business) the properties, books, and records of the Companies and their financial and legal conditions to the extent the Buyer reasonably deems it necessary or advisable to familiarize itself with such properties and other matters. The Sellers will, and will cause the Companies to, permit the Buyer and their Representatives to have, after the date of execution of this Agreement, reasonable access (during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice, and without interfering in the operations of the Companies’ business) to the premises and to all the books and records of the Companies and to cause the officers of the Companies to furnish the Buyer with such financial and operating data and other information with respect to the business, properties, assets and liabilities of the Companies as the Buyer may from time to time reasonably request. The Sellers will, and will cause the Companies to, deliver or cause to be delivered to the Buyer such additional instruments, documents, certificates, and opinions, in each case in the possession of the Companies, as the Buyer may reasonably request for the purpose of (a) verifying the information set forth in this Agreement or on any Section of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule attached to this Agreement and (b) consummating or evidencing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.13 shall be deemed to require the Sellers or the Companies to make available to the Buyer, and the Buyer acknowledges and agrees that following the Closing the Sellers may retain, any information that (i) is subject to an attorney client privilege, (ii) is subject to a confidentiality agreement or (iii) relates to the discussions and negotiations between the parties hereto, or to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 6.14    Update of Disclosure Schedules; Knowledge of Breach. The Companies and the Sellers shall have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time prior to the Closing to supplement or amend the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules with respect to any matter hereafter arising or discovered which if existing or known at the date of this Agreement would have been required to be set forth or described in such Sellers’ Disclosure Schedules and also with respect to events or conditions arising after the date hereof and prior to the Closing. Any such supplemental or amended disclosure shall not be deemed to have cured any breach of any representation or warranty made in this Agreement for purposes of the indemnification provided for in Article X hereof, and shall not be deemed to have cured any such breach of representation or warranty for purposes of determining whether or not the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a) have been satisfied. If prior to the Closing the Buyer shall have reason to believe that any breach of a representation or warranty of the Companies or the Sellers has occurred (other than through notice from the Companies or the Sellers), the Buyer shall promptly so notify the Sellers.

Section 6.15    PCAOB Audit. Following the date hereof, the Sellers shall (a) reasonably assist and cooperate with, and make available to the Buyer and its Representatives, all information, records, data and working papers in their possession, and shall direct their Representatives to make available all information, records, data and working papers in their possession, and shall permit access (during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice, and without interfering in the operations of the Sellers’ business) to their personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation of audited financial statements of the Companies as of and for the fiscal period ending December 31, 2016 (or any sub-period thereof) and any stub period required for 2017, which audit the Buyer shall have conducted in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and any other potential required SEC Reports of the Buyer, (b) request the auditors of the Companies to provide at the Buyer’s expense reasonable assistance and cooperation to Buyer, including without limitation, by requesting such auditors provide auditor’s comfort letters, including as to customary negative assurances, consents and other customary letters reasonably requested by the Buyer or potential financing sources of the Buyer, in each case by no later than forty (40) days following the Closing, and (c) reasonably cooperate with any due diligence investigation of potential financing sources of Buyer. The Buyer shall promptly upon any Sellers’ request reimburse any documented costs and expenses incurred by such Seller in connection with the foregoing.

Section 6.16    Resignations. The Companies shall deliver to the Buyer written resignations, effective as of the Closing Date, of the officers and directors of the Companies set forth on Section 6.16 of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule at or prior to the Closing, which resignations shall include irrevocable waivers of all rights to, and releases of all claims for, indemnification under the Operating Agreements of the Companies that are applicable to such officers or directors.

Section 6.17    Seller Marks. No later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall cause the Companies to change their names and cause their certificates of incorporation (or equivalent organizational documents), as applicable, to be amended to remove any reference to “Sentinel” or any other name, trademark or service mark owned by Sellers or any of their Affiliates, including any names and marks confusingly similar thereto (the “Seller Marks”).  Following the Closing, the Buyer shall cause the Companies to, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than one hundred and twenty (120) days following the Closing Date, cease to make any use of any Seller Marks. Any use by the Companies of any of the Seller Marks as permitted in this Section 6.17 is subject to their use of the Seller Marks in a form and manner consistent with the applicable Company’s use of such Seller Mark as of the Closing Date. The Buyer and its Affiliates shall cause the Companies to not use the Seller Marks in a manner that may reflect negatively on such name and marks or on Sellers or their Affiliates. Buyer and its Affiliates shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers and any of their Affiliates for any damages arising from or relating to the use by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Companies) of the Seller Marks pursuant to this Section 6.17. Following the Closing, Buyer shall cause the Companies to cease to hold themselves out as having any affiliation with Sellers or any of their Affiliates. The Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that effective as of immediately prior to the Closing, the Companies shall (and hereby do) assign to the Sellers all their right, title and interest in the website and associated domains and social media addresses set forth in Section 6.17 of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule.

Section 6.18    Title Insurance; Condemnation; Casualty.

(a)    Prior to Closing, Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in obtaining, at Closing, policies of owner’s title insurance with respect to each of the North Carolina Property and the New Jersey Property. In connection therewith, Sellers shall deliver to the Title Company a title affidavit and indemnities in such form and from such persons as Chicago Title Insurance Company (through John Caruso) (“Sellers’ Title Company”) agrees to accept in order to cause Chicago Title Insurance Company to issue fee title insurance policies in the form of the pro formas attached to Section 6.18(a) of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule (the “Title Pro-Formas”), including as are requested in order to delete the “gap” exception; provided, however, that Buyer shall pay all fees, costs, expenses and premiums with respect to any such title policies and provided, further, that the obligations of Sellers with respect to causing the issuance of title policies are qualified by Section 6.18(b) and Section 6.18(c) below. It is understood that in no event shall Sellers or their Affiliates be required to deliver at Closing title affidavits or indemnities in excess of those required by Sellers’ Title Company.

(b)    Title Objections. If any update to the Survey or the Title Commitments (each a “Title Update”) shall reveal or disclose any new items which are not Permitted Liens and Buyer, in its reasonable discretion, objects to such items (each, a “Title Objection”), then Buyer (or Buyer’s counsel) shall notify Sellers (or Sellers’ counsel) of such Title Objections in writing within five (5) days of Buyer’s receipt thereof. If Buyer does not notify Sellers in writing of any Title Objection within such time period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the state of title to the Real Property reflected in the applicable Title Update and to have waived any claims against Sellers which it might otherwise have raised with respect to such Title Update and, thereafter, the same shall be deemed to be Permitted Liens for all purposes of this Agreement.

(c)    Elimination of Liens. If any Title Objections which are not Permitted Liens appear in any Title Update, then Sellers shall be obligated to cause to be released, satisfied and otherwise discharged of record all such Title Objections which are: (i) a mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement, financing statement, or any other instrument which evidences or secures indebtedness of the Companies, (ii) a mechanics’ lien (other than a mechanics’ lien against a Tenant or a mechanics’ lien filed in connection with the Construction Work), (the items described in the preceding subclauses (i) and (ii), collectively, “Monetary Encumbrances”) or (3) any other lien which can be satisfied by the payment of a liquidated sum not in excess of $3,000,000, in the aggregate of all such other liens. In lieu of eliminating any Title Objections which are not Permitted Liens which Sellers may elect, or be required, pursuant to the express terms hereof, to eliminate under this Agreement, Sellers may deposit with the Title Company such amount of money as may be reasonably determined by the Title Company as being sufficient to induce the Title Company, without the payment of any additional premium by Buyer, to omit such Title Objections which are not Permitted Liens from Buyer’s title insurance policy. If, as of the Closing Date, there are any Title Objections (which are not Permitted Liens or are not otherwise omitted from Buyer’s title insurance policy), then Buyer shall have the right (as its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to such matters) either to: (i) terminate this Agreement by delivering notice thereof to Sellers, or (ii) waive, in writing, its objection thereto and consummate the Closing, in which event such Title Objections shall thereupon constitute Permitted Liens for all purposes of this Agreement.

(d)    Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, any portion of the Property is taken by condemnation, eminent domain or similar proceeding, in the event the Closing occurs, Buyer shall be entitled to all awards and shall have the right to receive all such awards in connection with such condemnation, eminent domain or similar proceeding.

(e)    Casualty. If prior to the Closing, the Property is damaged by fire, vandalism, acts of God or other casualty or cause, Sellers shall provide prompt notice to Buyer of any such occurrence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Closing occurs, Seller shall assign to Buyer any applicable insurance proceeds and the right to receive the same, less any amounts incurred by Sellers or the Companies in connection with prosecuting the insurance claim and/or restoration of the damaged Property, and the amount payable to the Sellers’ Representative under Section 2.3(d) shall be reduced by the amount equal to any deductible under the applicable insurance policy.

Section 6.19    Tenant Estoppels. In connection with meeting the Minimum Estoppel Requirement, Sellers shall send to the Tenants (other than Tenants under Carrier License Agreements) an estoppel in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E and shall request Tenants execute such estoppels. In no event shall Sellers be obligated to (a) make any payments or otherwise pay any consideration to any person, (b) amend or modify any Lease or Contract or settle any claims with a Tenant or (c) be required to take any action against a Tenant in connection with meeting the Minimum Estoppel Requirement.

Section 7.1    Conditions to Obligations of the Buyer at the Closing. The obligations of the Buyer to consummate the Closing are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions. Any condition specified in this Section 7.1 may be waived by the Buyer to the extent permitted under applicable Law; provided, however, that no such waiver shall be effective against the Buyer unless it is set forth in writing signed by the Buyer.

(a)    Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Companies and the Sellers. (i) Each of the Fundamental Reps of the Companies and the Sellers made in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing (as if made anew at and as of the Closing); (ii) each other representation of the Companies and the Sellers (without giving effect to any “materiality”, “Seller Material Adverse Effect” or “Company Material Adverse Effect” qualifications) shall be true and correct in all respects as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing (as if made anew at and as of the Closing), except for such failures to be true and correct as would not have a Seller Material Adverse Effect or Company Material Adverse Effect; (iii) the Sellers shall, and shall have caused the Companies to, have performed and complied in all material respects with all terms, agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement required to be performed or complied with by the Sellers or the Companies on or before the Closing Date; and (iv) the Sellers’ Representative shall have delivered to the Buyer a certificate dated the Closing Date, confirming the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Section 7.1(a).

(b)    Officer’s Certificate. The Companies shall have delivered to the Buyer a certificate from an officer of each Company, dated as of the Closing Date, certifying that (i) true and complete copies of the organizational and governing documents of such Company are attached to the certificate; (ii) such organizational and governing documents have been in full force and effect in the form attached from and after the date of the adoption of the resolutions referred to in clause (iii) below and no amendment to such organizational and governing documents has occurred since the date of the last amendment annexed thereto, if any; and (iii) the resolutions adopted by the manager and members of each Company authorizing the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, and the consummation of all other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, attached to the certificate, were duly adopted by unanimous written consent, remain in full force and effect, and have not been amended, rescinded or modified, except to the extent attached thereto.

(c)    No Injunction. No provision of any applicable Law and any Governmental Order shall be in effect that shall prohibit or enjoin the consummation of the Closing.

(d)    No Proceedings. No Proceeding challenging this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or seeking to prohibit, alter, prevent, or materially delay the Closing or seeking Damages incident to this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, shall have been instituted by any Person before any Governmental Entity, be pending and be reasonably likely to succeed.

(e)    No Material Adverse Effect. Since the date hereof, no Company Material Adverse Effect shall have occurred.

(f)    Good Standing Certificates. The Sellers shall have caused the Companies to have delivered to the Buyer a certificate of good standing for each Company from the Secretary of State of Delaware and from each other jurisdiction in which such Company is qualified to do business, in each case, as of a date within ten (10) Business Days of the Closing Date.

Subject to the terms of Section 6.19, on or prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer Acceptable Tenant Estoppels from Tenants whose individual Fixed Rents comprise, in the aggregate, at least seventy percent (70%) of the total Fixed Rents under all Leases, including the Required Tenants and at least two (2) of the four (4) Additional Tenants (the “Minimum Estoppel Requirement”), provided, that solely for the purposes of this Section 7.1(g), the term “Fixed Rents” shall not include any sums due under the agreements classified as “Carrier License Agreements” in Section 4.12 of Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule.

(h)    Title Insurance; Title to Real Property. At the Closing, the Real Property shall only be subject to Permitted Liens and Sellers shall deliver to the Title Company the title affidavits and indemnities required pursuant to Section 6.18. At the Closing, the Title Company shall be unconditionally committed to issue to Buyer policies of owner’s title insurance in the form of the Title Pro-Formas (which may be modified to include additional Permitted Liens to the extent permitted by Section 6.18), dated the Closing Date and naming Buyer or the applicable Company as the insured, in each case showing Buyer or the applicable Company (or its nominee or assignee, as applicable) to be the owner in fee simple of the North Carolina Property or the New Jersey Property, as applicable, subject to no exceptions other than Permitted Liens. Sellers shall reasonably cooperate with the Buyer in Buyer obtaining title endorsements at Closing, but such endorsements (other than the form of non-imputation endorsements attached to the Title Pro-Formas) shall not be a condition to Closing and Sellers shall not be required to incur any costs or provide an indemnity in connection with Buyer obtaining such endorsements other than the non-imputation endorsements.

(j)    Seller Guarantee. Each Seller Guarantee shall have been delivered to the Buyer, duly executed by the applicable Seller Guarantor.

(a)    Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Buyer. (i) Each of the Fundamental Reps of the Buyer made in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing (as if made anew at and as of the Closing); (ii) each other representation of the Buyer (without giving effect to any “materiality” or “Buyer Material Adverse Effect” qualifications) shall be true and correct in all respects as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing (as if made anew at and as of the Closing), except for such failures to be true and correct as would not have a Buyer Material Adverse Effect; (iii) the Buyer shall have performed and complied in all material respects with all terms, agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement required to be performed or complied with by the Buyer on or before the Closing Date; and (iv) the Buyer shall have delivered to the Sellers a certificate dated the Closing Date, confirming the satisfaction of the conditions contained in this Section 7.2(a).

Section 8.1    Treatment of Transaction. The parties acknowledge and agree that, for United States federal income tax purposes, the transactions contemplated hereby will be treated, (a) with respect to the Sellers, as a sale by the NJ Sellers of all of their Sold Interests, and a sale by the NC Seller of all of the assets of SNC and, (b) with respect to the Buyer, as a purchase of the assets of the Companies. The Sellers covenant and agree to ensure that an election pursuant to Code Section 754 is or will be in effect as to each of the Companies with respect to the U.S. federal income Tax period that includes the Closing Date

Section 8.2    Transaction Consideration; Allocation.

(a)    The Buyer and the Sellers shall endeavor to agree in accordance with Section 8.2(b) on an allocation of the total consideration (as determined for federal income tax purposes) for the Sold Interests among the assets of the Companies (the “Allocation”) for purposes of Subchapter K and Section 1060 of the Code. If the parties agree to the Allocation, then, except as may be required by a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar state or local tax provision), neither the Buyer nor the Sellers (nor any of their respective affiliates) shall file any Tax Return or take a position with a Taxing Authority that is inconsistent with the Allocation, including any amendments thereto.

(b)    The Buyer shall present a draft of the Allocation (the “Proposed Allocation”) to the Sellers’ Representative for review as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date. Unless the Sellers’ Representative raise an objection as provided in this Section 8.2(b), at the close of business on the 21st day after delivery of the Proposed Allocation, the Proposed Allocation shall become binding upon the Buyer and the Sellers and shall be the Allocation. The Sellers’ Representative shall raise any objection to the Proposed Allocation in writing within 20 days of the delivery of the Proposed Allocation. The Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any differences for 10 days after delivery of any objection by the Sellers’ Representative. If the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative reach written agreement amending the Proposed Allocation, the Proposed Allocation, as amended by such written agreement, shall become binding upon the Buyer and the Sellers and shall be the Allocation. If the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative cannot mutually agree on the appropriate allocation within the 10 day time limit set forth in this Section 8.2(b), then the Buyer and each of the Sellers may report the allocation of consideration among the assets of the Companies in its sole discretion.

(c)    In the event that there is any adjustment to the aggregate consideration for the Sold Interests, the Sellers shall revise any agreed upon Allocation to reflect any such adjustment using the principles applied in the agreed upon Allocation and taking into account the Company to which such adjustments relate, and such allocation, as revised, shall be the Allocation.

(d)    In the event that the Allocation is disputed by any Taxing Authority, the party receiving notice of such dispute shall promptly notify and consult with the other party and keep the other party apprised of material developments concerning resolution of such dispute. The party receiving notice of such dispute shall control any Proceeding resulting from such dispute by any Taxing Authority regarding the Allocation; provided, however, Buyer and Sellers’ Representative shall each have the right to participate in such Proceeding at its sole cost and expense, and no such Proceeding shall be settled without the consent of Buyer and Sellers’ Representative (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

Section 8.3    Transfer Taxes. Any and all transfer, documentary, sales, use, registration and stamp Tax, excise Tax, stock transfer Tax, and other similar Taxes, and any penalties or interest with respect thereto, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) shall be paid 50% by the applicable Sellers who own the Real Property that is the subject of such Transfer Tax (severally in accordance with their Pro Rata Portions, “Seller Transfer Taxes”), on the one hand, and 50% by Buyer (collectively, the “Buyer Transfer Taxes”), on the other hand, when due, and Buyer and the Sellers and their respective Affiliates shall cooperate to prepare and execute and file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes.

Section 8.4    Tax Returns.

(a)    The Sellers’ Representative shall timely prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed all Tax Returns of the Companies and their Subsidiaries for all periods ending on or before the Closing Date. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Companies and their Subsidiaries except as otherwise required by Law or regulation or otherwise agreed to in writing by the Buyer. Prior to the filing of any such Tax Return that was not filed before the Closing Date, the Sellers’ Representative shall provide the Buyer with a substantially final draft of such Tax Return at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the due date for such Tax Return. The Buyer shall notify the Sellers’ Representative of any objections that the Buyer may have to any items set forth in any such draft Tax Return within five (5) days, and the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall agree to consult and resolve in good faith any such objection. If the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative are unable to reach such agreement within five (5) days after receipt by the Sellers’ Representative of such notice, the disputed items shall be resolved by the Accounting Referee and any determination by the Accounting Referee shall be final and binding on the parties. The Accounting Referee shall resolve any disputed items within five (5) days of having the item referred to it pursuant to such procedures as it may require. The costs, fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne equally by the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative. For the avoidance of doubt, the Sellers may use each Company’s existing Tax preparation firm, or any other Tax preparation firm selected by them. The Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with the Sellers’ preparation of such Tax Returns and the execution of such Tax Returns by the Companies, as applicable.

(b)    The Buyer shall timely prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed all Tax Returns of the Companies and their Subsidiaries relating to Straddle Periods (“Straddle Period Tax Returns”). Such Straddle Period Tax Returns shall be prepared or completed in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Companies and their Subsidiaries except as otherwise required by Law or regulation or otherwise agreed to in writing by the Sellers’ Representative. Prior to the filing of any such Straddle Period Tax Return the Buyer shall provide the Sellers’ Representative with a substantially final draft of such Straddle Period Tax Return at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the due date for such Straddle Period Tax Return. The Sellers’ Representative shall notify the Buyer of any objections that the Sellers’ Representative may have to any items set forth in any such draft Straddle Period Tax Return within five (5) days, and the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall agree to consult and resolve in good faith any such objection. If the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative are unable to reach such agreement within five (5) days after receipt by the Buyer of such notice, such Tax Return shall be filed in the manner prepared by the Buyer.

(c)    For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, Taxes of either Company or any of their Subsidiaries allocable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, gains or receipts (including sales and use taxes), or employment or payroll Taxes, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, gains or receipts (including sales and use taxes), or employment or payroll Taxes, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Straddle Period ended on the Closing Date. Any exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each period. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with reasonable prior practice of the Companies.

(d)    Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Buyer shall not, and shall not permit its Affiliates to, take any action including the filing of any amended Tax Returns, related to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (including the pre-Closing portion of any Straddle Period) without the prior written consent of the Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld conditioned or delayed, except to the extent required by applicable Law or otherwise contemplated by Section 8.5.

(e)    The provisions of this Section 8.4 shall survive the Closing.

Section 8.5    Tax Proceedings.

(a)    Following the Closing, the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand (each, the “Recipient,” and together, the “Contest Parties”), shall notify the other Contest Party within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by the Recipient of written notice of any Tax Proceeding in respect of the Real Property or any Company or Subsidiary of any Company relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period. In addition to the foregoing, each Contest Party shall promptly provide to the other Contest Party copies of all written notices and other documents received from the applicable Governmental Entity (provided that the Contest Party receiving such notice or other document may redact from such copies information not reasonably related to or necessary for prosecuting such Tax Proceeding).

(b)    The Sellers shall, at their expense, control the defense and settlement of all Tax Proceedings in respect of the Real Property or any Company relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than with respect to a Straddle Period, which is addressed is Section 8.5(c)); provided, however, that the Sellers shall (i) consult in good faith with the Buyer before taking any action in connection with such Tax Proceeding that might adversely affect the Buyer or the Companies, (ii) conduct such Tax Proceeding diligently and in good faith, and (iii) not settle, discharge, compromise, or otherwise dispose (collectively, “dispose”) of such Tax Proceeding if such disposition would result in, or otherwise involve, any liability for Taxes of the Buyer or the Companies without obtaining the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c)    The Buyer shall, at its expense, control the defense and settlement of all Tax Proceedings in respect of the Real Property or any Company relating to any Straddle Period; provided, however, that the Buyer shall (i) consult in good faith with the Sellers before taking any action in connection with such Tax Proceeding that might adversely affect the Sellers, (ii) conduct such Tax Proceeding diligently and in good faith, and (iii) not dispose of such Tax Proceeding if such disposition would result in, or otherwise involve, any liability for Taxes of the Sellers without obtaining the prior written consent of the Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d)    Any refunds or savings in the payment of Taxes resulting from such Tax Proceedings applicable to the period prior to the date of the Closing shall belong to and be the property of the Sellers, and any refunds or savings in the payment of taxes applicable to the period from and after the date of the Closing shall belong to and be the property of the Buyer; provided, however, with respect to any Tenants who were in occupancy of the Real Property during the period for which any Tax refunds or savings are applicable and continued to be in occupancy of the Real Property for any period from and after the Closing Date, if any such refund creates an obligation to reimburse any such Tenants for any rents or additional rents paid or to be paid, that portion of such refund equal to the amount of such required reimbursement (after deduction of allocable expenses as may be provided in the Lease to such Tenant) shall be paid to the Companies and the Buyer shall cause the Companies, at the Buyer’s election, either (i) to disburse the same to such Tenants or (ii) to credit the Tenants the same against the next installments of such Tenant’s Additional Rents. All reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in obtaining such refunds or savings shall be apportioned between the Sellers and the Buyer in proportion to the gross amount of such refunds or savings payable to the Sellers and the Buyer, respectively (without regarding to any amounts reimbursable to Tenants).

(e)    The provisions of this Section 8.5 shall survive the Closing.

Section 8.6    Cash Purchase Price Adjustment. Any adjustments made to the aggregate consideration received by the Sellers or any payments made or received by the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law be treated as adjustments to the Cash Purchase Price for all applicable Tax purposes.

Section 9.1    Fees and Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, each party hereto shall pay its own fees and expenses incident to preparing for, entering into and carrying out this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including attorneys’ fees and consultants’ fees incurred by each party in the performance of its obligations hereunder. In addition, the Buyer shall pay (i) all costs associated with its due diligence, including, without limitation, the cost of appraisals, architectural, engineering, credit and environmental reports, (ii) all Buyer Transfer Taxes applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) the premium for any title insurance purchased by the Buyer and all endorsements and extended coverage relating to any such title insurance, (iv) all survey costs, (v) the costs of title search and examination with respect to the Real Property, (vi) all fees, costs and expenses in connection with obtaining any financing the Buyer may elect to obtain (including any fees, financing costs, mortgage and recordation Taxes and intangible taxes in connection therewith) and (vii) all fees, costs and expenses in connection with any applications for permits or approvals from any Governmental Entity.

Section 9.2    Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand, sent by facsimile (subject to confirmation of receipt) or email (subject to confirmation of receipt by return email), or sent by reputable overnight courier service, and shall be deemed given, if delivered by hand, when so delivered, or if sent by facsimile, when received, or if sent by overnight courier service, one (1) Business Day after delivery to such service, as follows:

Any information which is reasonably apparent on its face that relates to another section of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule shall also be deemed to be disclosed with respect to such other section. Disclosure of any item in the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule will not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material item, fact, exception of fact, event or circumstance or that occurrence or non-occurrence of any change or effect related to such item would result in a Company Material Adverse Effect or a Buyer Material Adverse Effect. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Any capitalized term used in any Exhibit, Schedule or section of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule but not otherwise defined therein will have the meaning given to such term in this Agreement. Any reference to “days” means calendar days unless Business Days are expressly specified. If any action under this Agreement is required to be done or taken on a day that is not a Business Day, then such action shall be required to be done or taken not on such day but on the first succeeding Business Day thereafter. “Writing,” “written” and comparable terms refer to printing, typing and other means of reproducing words (including electronic media) in a visible form. References from or through any date mean, unless otherwise specified, from and including or through and including, respectively. This Agreement is to be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting or causing any instrument to be drafted.

Section 9.4    Entire Agreement; Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement and any agreement entered into at the Closing in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between or on behalf of any Seller and/or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Buyer and/or its Affiliates, on the other hand, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, including (i) the Seller Confidentiality Agreement and (ii) the Buyer Confidentiality Agreement. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their permitted successors and assigns and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 9.5    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State.

Section 9.6    Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by either of the parties without the prior written consent of the other party, and any such assignment that is not consented to shall be null and void; provided, that (a) each party hereto may freely assign any of its rights (but not its obligations) under this Agreement to any Affiliate; and (b) the Buyer and its Affiliates may assign their rights (but not its obligations) under this Agreement to any of its financing sources as collateral security. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 9.7    Enforcement. All disputes arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its validity or termination, shall be heard and determined exclusively in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware. Consistent with the preceding sentence, the parties hereto hereby (i) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware for the purpose of any dispute arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement brought by any party, (ii) agree that service of process will be validly effected by sending notice in accordance with Section 9.2, and (iii) irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such dispute, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-mentioned court, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the dispute is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the dispute is improper or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by the above-named court.

Section 9.8    Severability; Amendment and Waiver.

(a)    Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

(b)    This Agreement may be amended, and the terms hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by each of the parties or, in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance.

(c)    No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party of any right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege.

Section 9.9    Specific Performance.

(a)    The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by either party in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached (including any failure to take any action required to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby). It is accordingly agreed that each party hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by the other party and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Sellers shall be entitled to obtain any injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief requiring the Buyer to cause amounts required to be paid by it hereunder to be funded and paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and otherwise to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The foregoing rights are in addition to and without limitation of any other remedy to which a party hereto may be entitled at law or in equity (including, without limitation, a party’s right to sue for Damages for breach of this Agreement). Each party further agrees not to assert that a remedy of specific performance is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary Damages would provide an adequate remedy. Each party hereby waives (A) any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate and (B) any requirement under any law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all expenses of any party incurred in connection with any action brought by a party relating to the terms and provisions of this Agreement provided for in the foregoing sentence shall be paid by the substantially non-prevailing party.

(b)    the Buyer and each of the Sellers further agree that (a) by seeking any remedy provided for in this Section 9.9, a party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to such party under this Agreement and (b) nothing contained in this Section 9.9 shall require any party to institute any action for (or limit any party’s right to institute any action for) specific performance under this Section 9.9 before exercising any other right under this Agreement.

Section 9.10    No Recordation. In no event shall this Agreement or any document or other memorandum related to the subject matter of this Agreement be recorded without the consent of each Seller. The Buyer also agrees not to file any lis pendens or other instrument against the Real Property or any portion thereof in connection herewith.

Section 9.11    Time is of the Essence. The Buyer and the Sellers each agree that time is of the essence with respect to the obligations of the Buyer and the Sellers under this Agreement.

Section 9.12    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and when executed will be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together will constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of any such agreement.

Section 9.13    Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 9.14    Representation. Each of the parties agrees that Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP (“Skadden”) may serve as counsel to the Sellers and their respective Affiliates in connection with any matters related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding any representation by Skadden prior to the Closing Date of either of the Companies and/or any of its Affiliates. Each of the Sellers, the Buyer and the Companies hereby (a) waives any claim it has or may have that Skadden has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from engaging in such representation and (b) agrees that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between the Buyer, either of the Companies or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and any of the Sellers and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, Skadden may represent such Seller or such Affiliate of a Seller in such dispute even though the interests of such Person(s) may be directly adverse to the Companies or any of their Affiliates and even though Skadden may have represented the Companies or any of their Affiliates in a matter substantially related to such dispute, and even though Skadden may be handling ongoing matters for the Buyer, the Companies or any of their respective Affiliates. Each of the parties also further agrees that, as to all communications among Skadden and the Companies, their Affiliates and/or their respective Representatives that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Privileged Communications”), the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to the Sellers and may be controlled by the Sellers and shall not pass to or be claimed by the Buyer, the Companies or any of their respective Affiliates. The Privileged Communications are the property of the Sellers, and from and after the Closing none of the Buyer, the Companies and their respective Affiliates will seek to obtain such communications, whether by seeking a waiver of the attorney-client privilege or through other means. As to any such Privileged Communications, the Buyer and the Companies, on behalf of themselves and their respective Affiliates and their and their Affiliates’ respective successors and assigns, further agree that no such party may use or rely on any of the Privileged Communications in any action against or involving any of the parties after the Closing. The Privileged Communications may be used by the Sellers and their respective Affiliates (other than the Companies) in connection with any dispute that relates in any way to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between the Buyer, the Companies or any of its Affiliates and a third party, other than a party to this Agreement or any Affiliate thereof, after the Closing, the Companies and their Affiliates may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by Skadden to such third party; provided that neither the Companies nor any of their Affiliates may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of each Seller.

Section 9.15    Releases.

(a)    Release of Sellers and Seller Released Parties. Effective as of the Closing Date, each of the Buyer, for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates, the Companies, and each of its and their respective successors, heirs and executors (each, a “Buyer Releasor”), hereby irrevocably, knowingly and voluntarily releases, discharges and forever waives and relinquishes all claims, demands, liabilities, defenses, affirmative defenses, setoffs, counterclaims, actions and causes of action of whatever kind or nature, whether known or unknown, which any Buyer Releasor has, may have or might have or may assert now or in the future, against any Seller or any Seller Released Party arising out of, based upon or resulting from any contract, transaction, event, circumstance, action, failure to act or occurrence of any sort or type, whether known or unknown, and which occurred, existed, was taken permitted or begun prior to the Closing Date; provided, that nothing contained in this Section 9.15(a) shall release, discharge, waive or otherwise affect the rights or obligations of any party to the extent set forth in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, the parties hereto agree that (i) with respect to any claims by any Purchaser Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.2(e) against any Seller that are paid by such Seller, such Seller shall be subrogated to, and be entitled to benefits of, all rights, claims and remedies of any Company against any other Person, including Linde, LLC and its Affiliates, and (ii) the Buyer will, and will cause all Purchaser Indemnified Parties to, fully cooperate (including by assigning any relevant rights, claims and remedies) in the Seller’s enforcement of any such rights, claims and remedies against such other Person.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate liability of the Buyer under this Agreement shall not exceed the Cash Purchase Price.

Section 10.7    Indemnification Procedures.

(a)    Except as otherwise provided in Article VIII with respect to certain Tax matters, if any Person who or which is entitled to seek indemnification under Section 10.2 or 10.6 (an “Indemnified Party”) receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Third Party Claim against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Person against whom or which such indemnification is being sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party will give such Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof; provided, however, that if the Indemnified Party receives a complaint, petition, or any other pleading in connection with a Third Party Claim which requires the filing of an answer or other responsive pleading, the Indemnified Party shall furnish the Indemnifying Party with a copy of such pleading at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date a responsive pleading thereto is required to be filed (or promptly upon receipt by the Indemnified Party, if the Indemnified Party receives such complaint, petition or other pleading within such ten day period). Such notice by the Indemnified Party will describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, will include copies of all available material written evidence thereof, and will indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Damages that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party will have the right to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, or at its option (subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 10.7(a)) to assume the defense of thereof by appointing a recognized and reputable counsel to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided that:

(i)    The Indemnifying Party must give the Indemnified Party written notice of its election to assume control of the defense of the Third Party Claim within ten (10) Business Days of the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim. However, if the Indemnifying Party disputes any liability in connection with such matter, the Indemnifying Party may give the Indemnified Party written notice of its disclaimer of liability within ten (10) days of the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim.

(ii)    The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim and to employ a reputable counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party, except that the Indemnifying Party shall pay (i) any reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel that are incurred prior to the date the Indemnifying Party effectively assumes control of such defense and (ii) the fees and expenses of such separate counsel if the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party.

(iii)    The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of the defense of the Third Party Claim (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Indemnified Party) and shall pay, except where the Indemnifying Party disclaims liability, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (A) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi-criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (B) the Third Party Claim seeks injunctive or other equitable relief applicable to the Indemnified Party, or (C) the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently the Third Party Claim within ten (10) Business Days after receiving written notice from the Indemnified Party that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes (upon having received advice from reputable counsel) that the Indemnifying Party has failed to take such steps.

(iv)    If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the control and defense of a Third Party Claim, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party will not enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim that would lead to loss, liability, or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party for which the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, or which provides for injunctive or other non-monetary relief applicable to the Indemnified Party, or does not include an unconditional release of all Indemnified Parties. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the control and defense of a Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability with respect thereto, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will not enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim that would lead to loss, liability, or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnifying Party for which the Indemnifying Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, or which provides for injunctive or other non-monetary relief applicable to the Indemnifying Party, or does not include an unconditional release of all Indemnified Parties.

(b)    Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of Damages that does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) will be asserted by giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) Business Days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. Such notice by the Indemnified Party will describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, will include copies of all available material written evidence thereof, and will indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of Damages that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party will have a period of five (5) Business Days within which to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such five (5) Business Day period, the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which event the Indemnified Party will be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party at the Indemnifying Party’s expense pursuant to the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

(c)    A failure to give timely notice or to include any specified information in any notice as provided in Section 10.7(a) or (b) will not affect the rights or obligations of any party, except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any party that was entitled to receive such notice was deprived of its right to recover any payment under its applicable insurance coverage or was otherwise materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

Section 10.8    Other Indemnification Provisions.

(a)    Exclusive Remedy. Other than (i) claims for fraud and (ii) matters governed by Section 2.4 (to which matters this Article X shall not apply), the indemnification provisions of this Article X shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Parties and their respective Affiliates with respect to claims under, or otherwise relating to the transactions that are the subject of, this Agreement, whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise, and whether asserted against the Companies, their respective officers, directors or employees, the Sellers or any other Person. Each of the parties hereto, on behalf of itself and its equity owners, directors, managers, officers, employees, and Affiliates, agrees not to bring any actions or proceedings, at Law, equity or otherwise, against any other party or its and its equity owners, directors, managers, officers, employees, and Affiliates, in respect of any breach or alleged breach of any representation, warranty, covenant and agreement in this Agreement, except pursuant to the express provisions of this Article X. Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions, each Party to this Agreement shall be entitled to bring an action for injunctive or other equitable relief to enforce the terms of this Agreement, including specific performance, and no limitation or condition of liability provided in this Article X shall apply to any claim arising from fraud or criminal misconduct by a Party.

(b)    Purchaser Knowledge. The right to indemnification or other remedy based upon the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall not be affected by any investigation (including any environmental investigation or assessment) conducted or any knowledge acquired or capable of being acquired at any time prior to the Closing, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, except to the extent the Sellers prove that the Buyer had actual knowledge prior to the Closing (without imputation from others) of a breach of a representation or warranty, other than in respect of the matters described in Section 10.2(c), Section 10.2(d) and Section 10.2(e).

(c)    Materiality Scrape. For purposes of calculating the amount of any Damages, but not for purposes of determining whether a breach of a representation or warranty has occurred, any and all references qualified by concepts of “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be disregarded.

(d)    Consequential Damages. In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable under this Agreement for punitive damages, except to the extent such Damages are awarded in a Third Party Claim to a third party that is not an Affiliate of the applicable Indemnified Party.

(e)    Prorations. In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable under this Agreement for any liability or other amount (including any Damages associated with any such liability or amount) to the extent such liability or other amount was taken into account in preparing the Proration Statements in Section 2.4.

(f)    Additional Conditions Related to Indemnification Pursuant to Section 10.2(e). With respect to the environmental matter described in Section 10.2(e) of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule, to the extent Buyer intends to undertake action subject to indemnification, Buyer shall provide reasonable advance notice to Sellers’ Representative regarding such action in writing, which notice shall include sufficient detail regarding the planned action and the projected cost of the planned action to allow Sellers’ Representative to evaluate such proposed action. Buyer shall provide Sellers’ Representative with a reasonable opportunity to comment on Buyer’s proposed action. Buyer shall promptly provide copies to Sellers’ Representative of all notices, correspondence, draft reports, submissions, work plans, and final reports and shall give Sellers’ Representative a reasonable opportunity to comment on any submissions Buyer intends to deliver or submit to the appropriate regulatory body prior to said submission, to the extent that Buyer believes it is legally required to submit reports or correspondence to a regulatory agency, and Buyer shall allow Sellers’ Representative to participate in any meetings (in person or by other means) relating to such matter with governmental officials. For purposes of clarification, Sellers’ Representative’s participation (or decision not to participate) in any action Buyer may take with respect to the environmental matter described in Section 10.2(e) of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule, as set forth in this section or otherwise, shall not be construed or interpreted as a waiver of Sellers’ rights under this Agreement, including the limitations in this Agreement with respect to indemnification for the environmental matter described in Section 10.2(e) of the Sellers’ Disclosure Schedule.

Section 10.9    Escrow; Representation and Warranty Policy.

(a)    Escrow Release. The escrow period shall terminate on the Escrow Release Date (the “Escrow Period”); provided, however, that any portion of the Indemnity Escrow Amount that is necessary to satisfy any unsatisfied or unresolved claims delivered to the Sellers’ Representative in writing prior to termination of the Escrow Period and pursuant to the terms of this Article X, shall not be payable to the Sellers pursuant to Section 2.7 until all such claims have been resolved; provided, further, that the Special Indemnity Escrow Amount shall not be payable to the Sellers pursuant to Section 2.7 until the first anniversary of the termination of the Escrow Period; provided, further, that any portion of the Special Indemnity Escrow Amount that is necessary to satisfy any unsatisfied or unresolved claims delivered to the Sellers’ Representative in writing prior to the first anniversary of the termination of the Escrow Period shall not be payable to the Sellers pursuant to Section 2.7 until all such claims have been resolved.

(b)    Representation and Warranty Policy. At or prior to the Closing, the Buyer shall be entitled to obtain, at the Buyer’s expense a buy side representation and warranty insurance policy (the “Representation and Warranty Policy”). The Buyer shall cause any such Representation and Warranty Policy to include an express waiver by the insurer(s) that issue such policy of any and all rights of subrogation which such insurer(s) might have under such or otherwise to any claims of the Buyer against the Sellers or their Affiliates, or any of their respective Representatives (all of which shall be express third party beneficiaries of such waiver) under this Agreement, it being agreed that such waiver of subrogation may include an exception for fraud. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the Buyer’s (or any of its Affiliates’) ability to make a claim under the Representation and Warranty Policy. The Sellers and the Companies shall reasonably cooperate with the Buyer in the procurement of the Representation and Warranty Policy, provided that neither the Companies nor the Sellers shall be obligated to make any commitments, or to incur any fees, expenses or liability in connection therewith. The parties acknowledge and agree, (i) the Buyer’s failure to obtain the Representation and Warranty Policy shall not be deemed to give rise to the failure of any condition to the Closing be satisfied, and (ii) none of the Sellers shall have any liability with respect to the procurement (or its failure) of the Representation and Warranty Policy or with respect to any Purchaser Indemnified Party to recover any amounts thereunder.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) except for claims pursuant to Section 10.2(a) based on the breach of a Fundamental Rep, any claim against a Seller under Section 10.2 shall be satisfied exclusively from the funds in the Escrow Account and/or the Representation and Warranty Policy, (ii) whether or not the Escrow Account and/or the coverage limit of the Representation and Warranty Policy are exhausted, no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall have any right to recover any amounts from any Seller, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover directly from the Sellers amounts that are payable in respect of (x) claims pursuant to Section 10.2(a) based on the breach of a Fundamental Rep, (y) claims based on fraud and (z) claims pursuant to Section 10.2(c), Section 10.2(d) or Section 10.2(e) (but in each case subject to the Cap) in each case of (x), (y) and (z), to the extent the Escrow Account and the coverage limit of the Representation and Warranty Policy are exhausted, and (iii) the Special Indemnity Escrow Amount shall be solely available for the satisfaction of claims pursuant to Section 10.2(c), Section 10.2(d) or Section 10.2(e) (but in each case subject to the Cap) and no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall have any right to recover any amounts from the Special Indemnity Escrow Amount with respect to any other claims.

(f)    by the Sellers’ Representative if (i) all conditions set forth in Section 7.1 have been satisfied or, to the extent permitted under applicable Law and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, waived (other than those conditions that by their nature have to be satisfied at the Closing) and (ii) the Sellers’ Representative has notified the Buyer in writing that the Sellers are ready, willing and able to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Buyer fails to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement within five (5) Business Days following such notification.

Section 11.2    Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.1, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given by the terminating party to the other parties hereto, and this Agreement will thereupon terminate and become void and have no force or effect, and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned without further action by the parties hereto, except that this Article XI and Article IX shall survive such termination; provided, however, that (a) the Buyer will not be released from liability hereunder if this Agreement is terminated and the transactions abandoned by reason of (i) failure of the Buyer to have performed its material obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any material misrepresentation made by the Buyer of any matter set forth in this Agreement and (b) the Companies and the Sellers will not be released from liability hereunder if this Agreement is terminated and the transactions abandoned by reason of (i) failure of any of the Companies or any Seller to have performed its or his material obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any material misrepresentation made by the Companies or any Seller of any matter set forth in this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 11.2 will relieve any party to this Agreement of liability for breach of any provision of this Agreement which specifically survives termination hereunder, subject to the express terms and limitations set forth in this Agreement, or fraud.
