(e)                                  Resolution of Disputes.  If Parent Seller and Purchaser fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in a Statement of Objections, then the matters still in dispute shall, not later than twenty (20) days after the delivery of such Statement of Objections (or, if earlier, the date on which either Parent Seller or Purchaser affirmatively terminates discussions in writing with respect to such Statement of Objections), be submitted for resolution to the Independent Accountant who, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, and as described in Section 2.03(f), shall resolve the matters still in dispute and adjust the Closing ANWC Statement (and the computations of Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital reflected set forth thereon) or the Closing Balance Sheet (as necessary) to reflect such resolution.  The Independent Accountant shall be instructed to make a determination in writing as soon as practicable and in any event within thirty (30) days (or such other time as Purchaser and Parent Seller shall agree in writing) after its submission to the Independent Accountant of the matters in dispute.

(f)                                   Scope and Process of Review.  The scope of any dispute to be resolved by the Independent Accountant shall be limited to (i) whether the amounts set forth on the Closing ANWC Statement or the Closing Balance Sheet were obtained from and in accordance with the books and records of the Consolidated Acquired Companies and prepared in accordance with GAAP and in accordance with and in the same manner as and on a consistent basis (including the basis of calculation of individual line items) with the Company Accounting Procedures and (ii) whether there were errors of fact or mathematical errors in the Closing Balance Sheet or the

16

Closing ANWC Statement and/or in calculating the Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital reflected therein.  In resolving a disputed item, the Independent Accountant may not assign a value to any particular item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Party to the dispute or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either such Party, in each case, as presented in writing to the Independent Accountant.  Within fifteen (15) days after the engagement of the Independent Accountant, Purchaser and Parent Seller shall present their respective positions with respect to the items set forth in the Statement of Objections in the form of a written binder of supporting materials (the “Supporting Binder”) to the Independent Accountant and the other Party to the dispute and no ex parte conferences, oral examinations, testimony, depositions, discovery or other form of evidence gathering or hearings shall be conducted or allowed; provided that, at the Independent Accountant’s request, or as mutually agreed by Purchaser and Parent Seller, Purchaser and Parent Seller may meet with the Independent Accountant so long as representatives of both Purchaser and Parent Seller are present.  The Supporting Binders shall set forth the arguments supporting the applicable Party’s position, along with such supporting materials and other information (including facts and figures) as such Party shall desire.  In the event that either Parent Seller or Purchaser fails to submit its Supporting Binder within such fifteen (15)-day period, then the Independent Accountant shall render a decision based solely on the evidence timely submitted to the Independent Accountant by Parent Seller and Purchaser.  In the absence of fraud or manifest error, the Independent Accountant’s decision with respect to the matters in dispute shall be final and binding on the Parties, and either Party to the dispute may seek to enforce such decision in accordance with Section 11.03.

(g)                                  Fees and Expenses of the Independent Accountant.  The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be apportioned between the Parties by the Independent Accountant based on the degree to which each Party’s claims were unsuccessful and shall be paid by the Parties in accordance with such determination.

(h)                                 Access to Supporting Documentation.  Purchaser and Parent Seller shall each make reasonably available to the Independent Accountant, subject to customary confidentiality agreements, all relevant books and records relating to the Consolidated Acquired Companies, the Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing ANWC Statement and the computations of Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital reflected therein as are reasonably requested by the Independent Accountant and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Independent Accountant in resolving any disputed matters.

Section 2.04                           Adjustment Amount.

(a)                                 The Adjustment Amount shall be calculated in accordance with Section 2.04(b) and shall be calculated at the time the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing ANWC Statement (and the computations of Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital reflected therein or calculated therefrom) becomes final and binding on the Parties pursuant to Section 2.03.

(b)                                 The Final Purchase Price shall be determined by adjusting the Estimated Purchase Price by an amount (the “Adjustment Amount”) equal to the Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital, minus the Estimated Adjusted Net Working Capital.  If the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid to Sellers an amount in cash equal to

17

such Adjustment Amount to such bank account(s) as Parent Seller designates.  If the Adjustment Amount is a negative number, Sellers shall pay or cause to be paid to Purchaser an amount in cash equal to the absolute value of such Adjustment Amount.  Any Adjustment Amount paid pursuant to this Section 2.04(b) shall be paid, plus interest from the Closing Date through the date of payment, within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing ANWC Statement (and the related computation of the Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital) become final and binding pursuant to Section 2.03.  The amount of interest to be paid in connection with the Adjustment Amount shall be calculated using the short-term applicable federal rate (as determined by the IRS) during the month in which the Closing Date occurs, calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty-five (365)-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.  Any such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts as shall be designated in writing by Parent Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the payment date.

(c)                                  No matter that gives rise to adjustment under Sections 2.03 or 2.04 shall be the subject of or eligible for a claim by Purchaser for indemnification or other payment under Article IX or Article X.

54

Division or any other Governmental Authority in connection with the antitrust, competition or trade regulation matters contemplated by this Agreement.

(c)                                  Subject to Applicable Law and any applicable privilege, Parent Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall promptly furnish to the other Parties copies of any notices or written communications received by such Party from any third party or any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the receiving Party shall permit counsel to the other Party an opportunity to review in advance of, and the receiving Party shall consider in good faith the views of such counsel in connection with, any proposed written communications by the receiving Party and/or its Affiliates to any third party or any Governmental Authority, including the FTC and Antitrust Division, concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Each of Parent Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, agrees to provide the other Party and its counsel the opportunity, on reasonable advance written notice, to participate in any substantive meetings or discussions, either in person or by telephone, between a Party and/or any of its Affiliates, agents or advisors, on the one hand, and any third party or Governmental Authority, including the FTC and Antitrust Division, on the other hand, concerning or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby to the extent permitted by the Governmental Authority.

(e)                                  Immediately after the Closing Date, Parent Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, transfer to Purchaser all personnel files, documents and data in its (or their) possession or under its (or their) control that relate to the Company Employees (whether such information is maintained in hard-copy or electronic form/format), including all personnel files (including all employee applications, evaluations and agreements), all medical files (including employee safety/health, workers compensation and medical leave/Family Medical Leave Act files), all immigration files (including all I-9s and supporting information) and all employee benefits files (including enrollment forms, claims for benefits and benefit determinations, beneficiary designations, loan and distribution requests); provided that, subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in Section 6.05(c), Parent Seller and its Affiliates shall be permitted to retain copies of the foregoing for its (or their) own record.

Section 6.04                       Pre-Closing Access.  Subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, between the date hereof and the Closing Date, Parent Seller shall afford Purchaser and its representatives reasonable access, at reasonable times during normal business hours, to the personnel, premises, properties, books and records and other documents and financing, operating and other data of the Acquired Companies that Purchaser may reasonably request in writing; provided that Purchaser shall not engage in any environmental testing with respect to any Real Property without the prior written consent of Parent Seller; provided, further, that such books and records and other documents shall not include any Group Tax Return or any work papers related thereto.  Parent Seller shall also instruct the representatives and personnel of the Acquired Companies to cooperate reasonably with Purchaser and its representatives in its investigation of the Business pursuant to this Section 6.04.  The foregoing shall not require any

55

Seller or any Acquired Company to permit any inspection, or to disclose any information, that in its reasonable judgment is reasonably likely to (i) result in the waiver of any attorney-client privilege or the violation of any Applicable Law or (ii) violate any of their obligations with respect to confidentiality (whether pursuant to any Contract or otherwise) if such Seller or Acquired Company, as the case may be, shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent to such inspection or disclosure of the affected third party.  Sellers shall not be required to, nor shall Sellers be required to cause any Acquired Company to, take any action pursuant to this Section 6.04 beyond commercially reasonable efforts or that would unreasonably disrupt their respective normal operations.  The confidentiality of all such documents and information furnished in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be governed by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

(a)                                 Effective as of the Closing Date, or, in the case of Transferred Employees, December 31, 2014, Company Employees and Transferred Employees shall cease to participate in the Seller Plans and will, effective on the Closing Date or, in the case of Transferred Employees, January 1, 2015, or such other subsequent entry date as may be required by the plan or underlying insurance policy, become participants in any employee benefit plans offered by Purchaser in which they may be eligible to participate; provided however that the termination of participation of Company Employees or Transferred Employees in the Seller Plans and their prospective participation in employee benefit plans sponsored by Purchaser shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.01. Purchaser agrees that effective as of the Closing Date it will credit the service of each Company Employee with the Acquired Companies, Parent Seller or any Affiliate thereof for purposes of determining each Company Employee’s eligibility to participate in and eligibility for any vesting under each of the benefit plans that will be made available for Company Employees after the Closing Date (whether or not any such plan, program or arrangement is described in ERISA Section 3(3)).  In addition, Purchaser agrees to credit the service of each Company Employee with the Acquired Companies, Parent Seller or any Affiliate thereof for purposes of determining the amount of vacation and other paid time off to which such employee will be entitled under policies for vacation and other paid time off to be effective after the Closing Date.  On or before the Closing Date, Parent Seller shall provide Purchaser a list of the service time to be credited to each Company Employee pursuant to this Section 7.01(a).

(b)                                 With respect to each Company Employee, for so long as such Company Employee remains employed by any Acquired Company, Purchaser shall cause the Acquired Company, as applicable, to provide compensation and benefits that are comparable in the aggregate to the compensation and benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Purchaser.

60

(c)                                  As of the Closing Date, the Acquired Companies shall take such action as is necessary such that the Acquired Companies shall cease being a “participating employer” and shall cease any co-sponsorship and participation in each Plan that is jointly adopted, sponsored or maintained by the Acquired Companies and any ERISA Affiliate that is not a Subsidiary and in which any current, terminated or retired employee of the Acquired Companies participate (each such Plan being a “Seller Plan”).  Except as provided in Section 7.01(e) and Section 7.01(d), the Acquired Companies shall have no further Liability for any claims incurred under the Seller Plans related to events that occurred prior to the Closing Date, whether any claims related to such event are made prior to, on or after the Closing Date.  For this purpose, claims will be considered incurred on the date provided under the terms of the Seller Plans.  The Seller Plans shall provide any continuation coverage required under Section 4980B of the Code, Part 6 of Title I of ERISA or applicable state law (“COBRA”) to each “qualified beneficiary” as that term is defined in COBRA whose first “qualifying event” (as defined in COBRA) occurs on or prior to the Closing Date.

(d)                                 On or as soon as possible after  the Closing Date, the Acquired Companies shall adopt a deferred compensation plan (“New Deferred Compensation Plan”) and assume the benefits and liabilities of the Company Employees under the Hyatt Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan including any amounts accrued for 2013 (“Hyatt DC Plan Liabilities”).  On and following the Closing Date, the Acquired Companies shall maintain and be responsible for the Hyatt DC Plan Liabilities and any other liability for all deferred compensation obligations of the Company Employees and Sellers shall have no further liability therefore.  As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Parent Seller shall transfer assets to Purchaser or a trust for the New Deferred Compensation Plan as Purchaser shall designate equal to the Hyatt DC Plan Liabilities, including any amounts accrued for 2013 and included in the Hyatt DC Plan Liabilities.  As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Parent Seller shall provide Purchaser all documents and/or information related to the Hyatt DC Plan Liabilities to be assumed and transferred which is necessary to implement this Section 7.01(d), including updated account balances for each Company Employee as of the Closing Date.

(e)                                  Parent Seller acknowledges that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will result in Company Employees incurring a “severance from employment” with Seller (as defined for purposes of Section 401(k) of the Code) upon the  Closing Date, and that, pursuant to the provisions of Hyatt Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the “Seller 401(k) Plan”) each Company Employee will be entitled to receive distribution in full of his or her account balance from Seller’s 401(k) Plan, including any promissory notes evidencing loans following the Closing Date.  Purchaser agrees to allow Company Employees to elect to make direct rollovers from Seller’s 401(k) Plan to a defined contribution 401(k) plan established or maintained by the Acquired Companies or Purchaser (the “Purchaser 401(k) Plan”), including all promissory notes evidencing any loans to the Company Employees from the Seller 401(k) Plan.  In addition, Parent Seller acknowledges that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will result in Company Employees incurring a “distributable event” for purposes of the Hyatt Corporation Retirement Savings Plan-Puerto Rico (“Seller PR Savings Plan”) and that each Company Employee will be entitled to receive distribution in full of his or her account balance from Seller’s PR Savings Plan, including any promissory notes evidencing loans following the Closing Date.  Purchaser agrees to allow Company Employees to elect to make direct rollovers from Seller’s PR Savings Plan to a defined contribution plan to be established by Purchaser which is

61

qualified under the provisions of Sections 1081.01(a) and (d) of the Puerto Rican Code including all promissory notes evidencing any loans to the Company Employees from the Seller PR Savings Plan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent Seller or Purchaser shall not be required to  distribute plan assets to Company Employees participating in Seller’s 401(k) Plan or in Seller’s PR Savings Plan or accept rollovers from Company Employees if it is determined by either party that such transfer may violate ERISA, the Code or the Puerto Rican Code, as applicable.  As soon as practical following the Closing Date, Parent Seller shall provide Purchaser all documents and/or information related to the accounts and liabilities to be transferred which is necessary or appropriate to implement this Section 7.01(e).

(f)                                   Through December 31, 2014, Parent Seller shall continue to employ the food and beverage workers who work at the Highlands Inn Hotel (the “F&B Employees”) upon the same terms and conditions as on the date hereof and those F&B Employees who are covered (the “Covered F&B Employees”) by the UNITE HERE collective bargaining agreement set forth on Schedule 4.19(a)(ii) (the “Highlands Inn CBA”) upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Highlands Inn CBA applicable to the Covered F&B Employees.  Effective as of January 1, 2015, (the “Transfer Date”):  (i) Purchaser shall cause an Acquired Company to offer employment to and shall employ each active Covered F&B Employee who accepts employment upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Highlands Inn CBA and each active other F&B Employee who accepts employment upon the terms and conditions as on the date hereof (collectively, the “Transferred Employees”), (ii) such Acquired Company shall agree to assume and be the successor to Parent Seller for all Liabilities with respect to the Transferred Employees, including and all of Parent Seller’s obligations and Liabilities for the Transferred Employees under the Highlands Inn CBA, including Liabilities relating Parent Seller’s contribution history under the Monterrey Peninsula Restaurant and Hotel Pension Trust Fund (the “Pension Fund”) with respect to the Transferred Employees to be used for purposes of calculating any withdrawal liability incurred by the Acquired Company following the Transfer Date as if the transfer of employment of the Transferred Employees constituted a transaction covered by Section 4204 of ERISA, (iii) Purchaser agrees that such Acquired Company shall retain the Transferred Employees (subject to changes in the level of staffing as provided in the Highlands Inn CBA) and to continue to make contributions to the Pension Fund according to the terms of the Highlands Inn CBA, (iv) Parent Seller shall notify the union pursuant to Section 14 of the Highlands Inn CBA of the transactions contemplated by this Section 7.01(f) and provide Purchaser a copy of such notice, and (iv) Parent Seller and Purchaser shall take such action as is reasonably necessary such that Parent Seller shall have no further obligations or Liabilities under the Highlands Inn CBA or to the Transferred Employees with respect to obligations or Liabilities arising subsequent to the Transfer Date.  To the extent that the consummation of this transaction contemplated solely by this Section 7.01(f) causes the imposition of any withdrawal liability upon an Acquired Company, then Parent Seller will be solely responsible for such withdrawal liability and Parent Seller shall either pay or reimburse Purchaser for any such amounts.  Parent Seller and Purchaser shall mutually cooperate and agree regarding any negotiations with the union under the Highlands Inn CBA required in connection with the termination of and transfer of employment of the Transferred Employees as provided in this Section 7.01(f), including the treatment of any accrued and unused vacation pay payable to the Transferred Employees upon such termination of employment.  Purchaser shall not be required to hire and shall have no Liability with respect to any F&B Employee who is not a Transferred Employee. To the extent applicable, ten (10) days prior to the Transfer Date, Parent Seller shall provide Purchaser a schedule listing the elections

62

of all Transferred Employees along with the balances to be credited to each Transferred Employee who elects to transfer his or her accrued but unused vacation and other paid time off to Purchaser.

(g)                                  Other than Section 7.01(f) with respect to the relevant Acquired Company becoming a successor to Parent Seller under the Highlands Inn CBA, the Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 7.01 are included for the sole benefit of the respective Parties and shall not create any right in any other person, including any Company Employees, former Company Employees, any participant in any Plan or any beneficiary thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall preclude Purchaser or the Acquired Companies from terminating the employment of any Company Employee at any time and for any reason, or from terminating or amending any of its employee benefit plans at any time and for any reason.

(h)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no provision in this Agreement is intended to, or does, constitute the establishment of, or an amendment to, any employee benefit plan.

(i)                                     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent Seller shall retain all Liability with respect to, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser, the Acquired Companies and their respective Affiliates for, any change in control payment, transaction bonus, stay bonus, retention bonus or similar payment to which any director, manager, employee or former employee of any of the Acquired Companies or their respective Affiliates may be entitled in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether contingent or otherwise).

Section 7.02                           Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification.

(a)                                 Purchaser covenants and agrees that, for a period of six (6) years following the Closing Date, the provisions of the constituent documents of the Acquired Companies concerning the elimination of liability and indemnification of directors and/or other Persons shall not be amended in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Person that is as of the date hereof or the Closing Date covered as an indemnitee under any such elimination of liability or indemnification provisions.  In addition to the foregoing, from and after the Closing Date for a period of six (6) years, the Acquired Companies shall (and Purchaser shall cause the Acquired Companies to) indemnify and hold harmless (or caused to be indemnified and held harmless) each person who is, or at the Closing Date will be, a current or former director, employee, agent or officer of any Acquired Company (the “D&O Indemnitees”) against all Losses arising out of or pertaining to acts or omissions (or alleged acts or omissions) of the D&O Indemnitees, or any of them, in their capacities as such.  To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, the indemnification and related rights hereunder shall be mandatory rather than permissive, and such Acquired Company, as the case may be, shall (and Purchaser shall cause such Acquired Company to) promptly advance expenses in connection with such indemnification to the extent permitted under Applicable Law.

(b)                                 Effective upon the Closing, Purchaser and the Acquired Companies and each of their respective Affiliates, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasing

Parties”), shall be deemed to have remised, released and forever discharged the individuals set forth on Schedules 7.02(a) and 7.02(b) (collectively, the “D&O Released Parties”) of and from any and all claims which the Releasing Parties, or any of them, now have, ever had, or at the Closing may have, or hereafter can, shall or may have, against the D&O Released Parties, or any of them, for, upon or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, from the beginning of time through the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Releasing Parties shall not be deemed to have remised, released or discharged any D&O Released Party set forth on Schedule 7.02(a) from intentional misconduct or fraud or any D&O Released Party set forth on Schedule 7.02(b) from intentional misconduct, fraud, an intentional breach of a company policy then applying to the Acquired Companies or an intentional and knowing violation of Applicable Law.  As of the Closing Date, Purchaser, on behalf of each of the Releasing Parties, expressly acknowledges that it has had, or has had and waived, the opportunity to be advised by independent legal counsel and hereby waives and relinquishes all rights and benefits afforded by Section 1542 of the California Civil Code (and any analogous law of any other state, locality or other jurisdiction) and does so understanding and acknowledging the significance and consequence of such specific waiver which provides:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

(c)                                  Purchaser, on behalf of each of the Releasing Parties, hereby represents, warrants and covenants to each D&O Released Party that there has not been and will not be any assignment or other transfer of any right or interest in any claims that any Releasing Party ever had, has or may have against the D&O Released Parties, and hereby agrees to indemnify and hold each D&O Released Party harmless from any claims and Losses directly or indirectly incurred by any of the D&O Released Parties as a result of any person asserting any right or interest pursuant to any such purported assignment or transfer of any such right or interest.

(d)                                 Purchaser, on behalf of the Releasing Parties, hereby agrees that if any Releasing Party hereafter commences, joins in or in any manner seeks relief through any suit arising out of, based upon or relating to any of the claims released hereunder, or in any manner asserts against any D&O Released Party any of the claims released hereunder, then such Releasing Parties will pay to such D&O Released Party, in addition to any other Losses, direct or indirect, all attorneys’ fees incurred in defending or otherwise responding to such suit or claims.

(e)                                  For a period of six (6) years from and after the Closing Date, Parent Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to procure and maintain in effect with respect to all periods prior to the Closing Date, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those present and former officers and directors of the Acquired Companies and those present and former officers, directors and managers of the Acquired Companies who are currently covered by directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies on terms no less favorable in the aggregate than the terms of such current insurance coverage; provided, however, that if any claim is asserted or made within

64

such six (6)-year period, such insurance shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

(f)                                   The provisions of this Section 7.02 are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Person released or entitled to indemnification, or other benefit hereunder, and each such Person’s heirs, representatives, successors or assigns, it being expressly agreed that such Persons shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.02, and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other right to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by Contract or otherwise.  The Acquired Companies shall not (and Purchaser shall cause the Acquired Companies not to) (A) amend the provisions of this Section 7.02 in a manner that would adversely affect any such third party beneficiary without the prior written consent of such third party beneficiary or (B) following the Closing, enter into, or permit any of its Affiliates to enter into, any merger, consolidation or other transaction unless Purchaser shall have ensured that the surviving or resulting entity is creditworthy and will assume the obligations imposed by this Section 7.02.  With respect to any claim by a third-party beneficiary under this Section 7.02, no Releasing Party may assert by way of defense, set-off or counterclaim, any claim against, or Losses owing by, Sellers or another third-party beneficiary.

(g)                                  The Acquired Companies shall (and Purchaser shall cause the Acquired Companies to), from time to time following the Closing, execute and deliver such other documents and instruments and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by Sellers or any D&O Released Party or D&O Indemnitee to implement the provisions of this Section 7.02.

Section 7.03                           Notice of Certain Matters.  From the date hereof through the Closing, each Party, promptly upon obtaining knowledge of such matter, shall give notice in writing to the other Parties of (a) any fact or condition arising after the date hereof that causes any of its respective representations and warranties contained in this Agreement to be untrue, misleading or inaccurate in a manner reasonably likely to result in the failure of a condition set forth in  Article III (including setting forth the facts or conditions that such Party reasonably believes to have caused any such representation or warranty to become untrue, misleading or inaccurate in a manner reasonably likely to result in the failure of a condition set forth in  Article III) and (b) any failure of the Party to comply with or satisfy any covenant or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement in a manner reasonably likely to result in the failure of a condition set forth in Article III.  Should any such fact or condition described in clause (a) above require any change in any Disclosure Schedule if such Disclosure Schedule were dated as of the time of occurrence or discovery of such fact or condition, Parent Seller shall promptly deliver to Purchaser a supplement to the Disclosure Schedule specifying such change (each, a “Seller Schedule Update”). No Seller Schedule Update delivered to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7.03 shall (i) be deemed to cure any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty that was untrue when made or subsequently has become untrue or (ii) constitute a waiver by Purchaser of any condition set forth in this Agreement, unless, in either case, Purchaser specifically agrees thereto in writing.  Additionally, each Party’s obligations under this Section 7.03 and the disclosure of any matter in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.03 shall not limit or otherwise affect the rights and obligations of the other Party hereunder, including the remedies available hereunder (including the remedies described in Section 9.03 and Article X), and shall not be deemed to cure any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of

65

Sellers or Purchaser or Purchaser Parent, as the case may be, made in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents.  No failure to comply with this Section 7.03 shall by itself constitute the failure of any condition set forth in Article III, or by itself give rise to any rights of indemnification under Section 9.03 or Article X or of termination under Article VIII, unless the underlying breach would independently result in the failure of a condition set forth in Article III or give rise to any rights of indemnification under Section 9.03 or Article X or of termination under Article VIII, respectively.

Section 7.04                           Publicity / Securities and Exchange Commission Filings.

(a)                                 The Parties shall consult with each other at least two (2) Business Day before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including, the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K that announces the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and, except as may be required by Applicable Law or any securities exchange on which the securities of a Party or an Affiliate are listed, no Party shall issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior written approval of the other Parties (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(b)                                 Purchaser and Parent Seller shall cooperate in good faith with respect to the preparation of, and at least five (5) days prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall furnish Parent Seller with a draft Current Report on Form 8-K that announces the Closing.  Purchaser and Parent Seller shall cooperate in good faith with respect to the preparation of, and at least five (5) days prior to the filing, Purchaser shall furnish Parent Seller with a draft amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K incorporating the 2013 Final Audited Financial Statements and the 2014 Final Unaudited Financial Statements (the “Transaction Form 8-K/A”).  Parent Seller shall reasonably cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to provide appropriate representations to Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Consolidated Acquired Companies’ independent registered public accounting firm,  in connection with the delivery to Purchaser of the consent relating to the use by Purchaser of the 2013 Final Audited Financial Statements and 2014 Final Unaudited Financial Statements in the Transaction Form 8-K/A, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and Parent Seller.

Section 7.05                           Post-Closing Access.  Following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall (a) allow each Seller and their respective Affiliates, upon reasonable prior notice and during regular business hours, through their employees and representatives, the right to examine and make copies of the books and records transferred directly or indirectly to Purchaser at the Closing (including pursuant to Section 6.03(e)) for any reasonable business purpose relating to their respective businesses, including the preparation or examination of Tax Returns, regulatory filings and financial statements and the conduct of any litigation or the conduct of any regulatory, contractholder, participant or other dispute resolution or Proceeding (including any Tax Claim), whether pending or threatened, and (b) maintain such books and records for examination and copying by any Seller and/or their respective Affiliates for a period of not less than six (6) years following the Closing Date; provided that after such six (6)-year period, Purchaser shall provide Parent Seller with at least twenty (20) Business Days’ written notice prior to destroying or disposing of any such books and records at which time and at the option and expense of Parent Seller, Purchaser shall deliver such books and records to Parent Seller,

66

rather than destroying the same.  Parent Seller shall also make its representatives and personnel available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional historical information (and explanation thereof) with respect to the Acquired Companies reasonably relevant to Purchaser’s preparation of its Income Tax provision relating to the Acquired Companies; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, none of Parent Seller or its Affiliates shall have any liability for (and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Parent Seller and its Affiliates against) any Losses arising out of or in connection with such Income Tax provision prepared by Purchaser.  Access to such books and records shall be at Sellers’ expense, and may not unreasonably interfere with Purchaser’s or its Affiliates (including any Acquired Company’s) or any successor company’s business operations.  Parent Seller may retain (i) one copy of the materials included in the virtual data room organized by Parent Seller (or its Affiliates) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, together with a copy of all documents referred to in such materials, (ii) all internal correspondence and memoranda and valuations in connection with the sale of the Target Subsidiaries, (iii) a copy of all consolidating and consolidated financial information and all other accounting records prepared or used in connection with the preparation of the Financial Statements and (iv) one (1) copy of all Tax Returns.  For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent any provision of Section 9.02 conflicts with any provision of this Section 7.05, Section 9.02 shall control.

Section 7.06                           Remittance of Accounts Receivable.  Any royalties, marketing and reservation contributions, interest, commissions, fees and other payments (in cash or other property), including payments in respect of principal and interest, received by any Seller or any Affiliate of such Seller thereof that are the property of the Acquired Companies or the Business after the Closing Date in any capacity, accrued after the Closing Date, shall as of the Closing Date be for the account of Purchaser.  Any such amounts received by any Seller and such Seller’s Affiliates after the Closing Date shall be received by such Seller and such Affiliates in trust for Purchaser, and such Seller will, and will cause its controlled Affiliates to, subject to the consummation of the Closing, promptly pay such amounts to an account designated by Purchaser upon receipt of such account information from Purchaser.

Section 7.07                           Insurance Policies.

(a)                                 Notwithstanding the purchase of the Transferred Interests by Purchaser, Sellers hereby expressly exclude, and do not assign, transfer or convey to Purchaser, any rights or benefits of or to any insurance policies existing as of and prior to the Closing of any Acquired Company or any of their respective Affiliates, which might relate to, cover or insure any Acquired Company or any of their respective Affiliates as of or prior to the Closing for Loss of or Liability arising from the Business (collectively, “Pre-Closing Insurance Policies”), regardless of whether such right or benefit arises by statute, agreement or operation of Applicable Law, including defense and indemnity benefits attributable to or arising from or under such Pre-Closing Insurance Policies.  From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall not, and shall cause each Acquired Company not to, assert any right, claim or interest in, to or under any Pre-Closing Insurance Policies.  In furtherance thereof, Purchaser, on behalf of itself and, as of and from the Closing, the Acquired Companies, hereby (i) waives any and all rights to or under any such Pre-Closing Insurance Policies and (ii) agrees that, from and after the Closing, it shall be responsible for obtaining any insurance policies which might relate to, cover or insure any Acquired Company or any of their respective Affiliates for Loss of or Liability arising from the Business.

67

(b)                                 From and after the Closing, in the event Purchaser:  (i) incurs any Losses or Liabilities involving or related to (A) employment practices liability or workers’ compensation liability, in each case, of which Parent Seller had Knowledge prior to the Closing or (B) third-party personal injury or property damage arising prior to the Closing, in each case, which Losses or Liabilities are covered by Pre-Closing Insurance Policies (“Pre-Closing Insurance Claims”), and (ii) promptly notifies Parent Seller of such Pre-Closing Insurance Claim, Parent Seller shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, submit such Pre-Closing Insurance Claim to the applicable insurer following such notification.  Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with Parent Seller or its Affiliates or the applicable insurer in the investigation, contesting, defense or settlement of such Pre-Closing Insurance Claim.  For the avoidance of doubt, (x) any Losses or Liabilities involving or related to Pre-Closing Insurance Claims that are in excess of insurance coverage therefor (net of any retention amounts, recovery costs, increases in premium and related deductible payable by Parent Seller or its Affiliates in connection therewith) under applicable Pre-Closing Insurance Policies shall not be the responsibility of Parent Seller or its Affiliates, unless otherwise required by this Agreement, including the provisions of Article X, (y) Parent Seller or its Affiliates shall have the right, subject to the terms and provisions of the applicable Pre-Closing Insurance Policy, to investigate, contest, assume the defense of or settle any Pre-Closing Insurance Claim; provided that, subject to the terms and provisions of the applicable Pre-Closing Insurance Policy, Purchaser Parent may, at its option and at its own expense, participate in the investigation, contesting, defense or settlement of any such Pre-Closing Insurance Claim through representatives and counsel of its own choosing and (z) any amounts paid by an insurer and/or received by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7.07(b) shall not constitute indemnifiable Losses under Article X, and Purchaser shall have no right to indemnification under Article X with respect to any such amounts.  Furthermore, to the extent any Pre-Closing Insurance Claim has been brought under a Pre-Closing Insurance Policy by Parent Seller or its Affiliates, Purchaser Parent shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) to, from and after the Closing, reasonably cooperate with Parent Seller or such Affiliate in the investigation, contesting, defense or settlement of any such Pre-Closing Insurance Claim.

Section 7.08                           Name Changes by Purchaser.  Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) which have a company name that uses the name “Hyatt” and which names are set forth on Schedule 7.08, or any trademarks or logos containing or comprising the name “Hyatt” (collectively, the “Business Names”), to (a) change its company name to one not using a Business name and (b) make all necessary filings with all Governmental Authorities necessary to effect such name changes.  From and after the Closing, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) shall have any right, title, interest, license or any other right whatsoever to use the Business Names (except such rights as it may have under the Master License Agreement).  Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) to, (i) cease using Business Names in any manner, directly or indirectly, (ii) remove, strike over or otherwise obscure all Business Names from all assets and all other materials owned, possessed or used by Purchaser or any such Affiliates and (iii) cause their respective Affiliates to do the same, in each case, except as otherwise contemplated by the Master License Agreement.

Section 7.09                           Highlands Inn Hotel Liquor License.  To effectuate the assignment of all of Parent Seller’s right, title and interest in or relating to the licenses for the sale and service

68

of alcoholic beverages at the Highlands Inn Hotel (collectively, the “Liquor License”) to Parent Purchaser (or the applicable Acquired Company), upon termination of that agreement set forth in Schedule 7.09, Parent Seller will cooperate with Parent Purchaser in the filing of all notices and documents reasonably required by the California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control (the “California ABC”) to terminate its status as a co-holder of the Liquor License.  In connection therewith, Parent Seller covenants and agrees that it will reasonably coordinate any and all material action taken pursuant to this Section 7.09 with Parent Purchaser.  Parent Seller further agrees that prior to the California ABC’s approval or confirmation of the termination of Parent Seller’s status as co-owner of the Liquor License, Parent Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) not take any action to surrender or otherwise relinquish the Liquor License, or knowingly take or fail to take any action that would cause a cancellation, suspension, revocation or termination of the Liquor License, and (ii) cooperate with Parent Purchaser (or the applicable Acquired Company) to take all action reasonably necessary to continue the Liquor License and keep the Liquor License in full force and effect, including any action reasonably necessary to effectuate any renewal or extension of the Liquor License.

Section 7.10                           Kiosk Lease Agreement.  From and after the Closing, the Parties agree that, to the extent any New Project (which is approved in accordance with, and subject to the terms of, the Master License Agreement) requires space at a hotel managed by or affiliated with Parent Seller for the operation of a kiosk for the marketing and sale of Shared Ownership Interests in such New Project, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into a kiosk lease in the form substantially similar to the form of Kiosk Lease attached hereto as Exhibit L.

ARTICLE VIII.

Section 8.01                           Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

(a)                                 by mutual written consent of the Parties;

(b)                                 by Purchaser, on the one hand, or Sellers, on the other hand, if any Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action permanently enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated hereby and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and nonappealable;

(c)                                  by Purchaser, on the one hand, or Sellers, on the other hand, if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not have been consummated on or before December 31, 2014 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.01(c) shall not be available to or on behalf of any Party whose action or failure to act has been the primary cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to be consummated on or prior to such date;

(d)                                 by Purchaser if (i) there is any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Sellers set forth in this Agreement, such that the conditions specified in Section 3.01(a) or Section 3.01(b) would not be satisfied at the Closing (a “Terminating Sellers

69

Breach”), except that, if such Terminating Sellers Breach is curable by Sellers or the Acquired Companies, as applicable, through the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts, then, for a period of up to thirty (30) days, but only as long as Sellers or the Acquired Companies, as applicable, continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to cure such breach (the “Sellers Cure Period”), such termination shall not be effective, and such termination shall become effective only if the Terminating Sellers Breach is not cured within the Sellers Cure Period or (ii) all of the conditions set forth in Article III have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing and those conditions that Sellers’ breach of this Agreement has caused not to be satisfied) and Sellers fail to complete the Closing at the date otherwise specified to be the Closing Date in accordance with Section 2.02(a); or

(e)                                  by Parent Seller, if (i) there is any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement, such that the conditions specified in Section 3.02(a) or Section 3.02(b) would not be satisfied at the Closing (a “Terminating Purchaser Breach”), except that, if such Terminating Purchaser Breach is curable by Purchaser through the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts, then, for a period of up to thirty (30) days, but only as long as Purchaser continues to use commercially reasonable efforts to cure such Terminating Purchaser Breach (the “Purchaser Cure Period”), such termination shall not be effective, and such termination shall become effective only if the Terminating Purchaser Breach is not cured within the Purchaser Cure Period or (ii) all of the conditions set forth in Article III have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing and those conditions that Purchaser’s breach of this Agreement has caused not to be satisfied) and Purchaser fails to complete the Closing at the date otherwise specified to be the Closing Date in accordance with Section 2.02(a).

Section 8.02                           Effect of Termination.  If this Agreement is terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby terminated as provided in Section 8.01, such termination shall be without Liability to any Party or their respective Affiliates, and following such termination no Party shall have any Liability under this Agreement or relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that no such termination shall relieve any Party that has willfully or knowingly and materially breached any provision of this Agreement from Liability for such breach, and any such breaching Party shall remain fully liable (subject to Section 10.02(d)) for any and all Losses incurred or suffered by the other Party as a result of such breach; provided the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 7.04, this Section 8.02 and Article XI shall survive any termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect.

ARTICLE IX.
TAX MATTERS

Section 9.01                           Tax Returns.

(a)                                 Parent Seller shall prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and filed) all Income Tax Returns with the appropriate federal, state, local and foreign Governmental Authorities relating to the Tax Group Members for Tax Periods ending on or before the Closing Date, and all such Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with past practice (unless otherwise required by Applicable Law).  Parent Seller shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Taxes due on such Income Tax Returns.  Parent Seller shall provide Purchaser a copy of each such Income Tax Return that

70

is not a Group Tax Return at least fifteen (15) days before the filing of such Income Tax Return; provided that with respect to any Tax Group Member that ceased to be a member of the HHC Affiliated Group as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Parent Seller shall provide Purchaser a copy of a stand-alone federal Income Tax Return on a pro forma basis for each such Tax Group Member at least fifteen (15) days before the filing of the HHC Affiliated Group federal Income Tax Return.  Purchaser shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, (i) all non-Income Tax Returns relating to the Tax Group Members for Tax Periods ending on or before the Closing Date, which Tax Returns are filed after the Closing Date and (ii) all Tax Returns required to be filed by any Tax Group Member relating to any Straddle Period (each such Tax Return subject to the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), a “Purchaser-Filed Tax Return”).  Purchaser shall cause the relevant Tax Group Member to pay the Taxes shown to be due on each Purchaser-Filed Tax Return; provided that Sellers shall reimburse Purchaser for the portion of such Taxes related to Pre-Closing Tax Periods (calculated in the case of Straddle Periods in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.03(c)), except to the extent that such Taxes are taken into account in determining the Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital.  Purchaser shall allow Parent Seller to review and comment upon any such Purchaser-Filed Tax Returns for Income Taxes beginning at least thirty (30) days before the filing of such Purchaser-Filed Tax Returns, or for all other Purchaser-Filed Tax Returns beginning at least then (10) days before the filing such other Tax Returns.  Purchaser shall not file any Purchaser-Filed Tax Return without the written consent of Parent Seller, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  Parent Seller shall provide any comments it may have to the Purchaser-Filed Tax Returns within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of same for Income Tax Returns and within five (5) days of its receipt of same for all other Purchaser-Filed Tax Returns.  To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Purchaser and Parent Seller agree to cause the Tax year of each Tax Group Member to end on the Closing Date.  With respect to draft Tax Returns of Acquired Companies that are not Tax Group Members, Parent Seller shall provide Purchaser copies of such draft Tax Returns received by Parent Seller, using commercially reasonable efforts to provide such copies to Purchaser prior to the due date for such Tax Returns.

(b)                                 (i)  With respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, Purchaser shall not make any elections or file (or cause or permit any Tax Group Member to file) any amended Tax Return, without Parent Seller’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  For purposes of the preceding sentence, Parent Seller’s consent shall be considered to be unreasonably withheld if Parent Seller fails to consent after receiving from tax counsel with appropriate expertise in the relevant area of Tax law or a nationally recognized accounting firm designated by Purchaser, and in either case reasonably acceptable to Parent Seller, written advice that (A) the subject matter of the elections or amended Tax Return will more likely than not be sustained; and (B) the amount of Tax involved is material to and would be required to be disclosed by Purchaser in accordance with GAAP.

(ii)  With respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, upon Parent Seller’s request and at Sellers’ expense, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the relevant Tax Group Member to, initiate a claim for refund or amend any Tax Return; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be required to initiate such a claim for refund or amendment if it can reasonably be expected that such claim for refund or amendment would increase the Liability for Tax of the relevant Tax Group Member or Purchaser for any Straddle Period or any Tax Period or portion thereof beginning after the Closing Date.  Purchaser shall not cause or permit any Tax Group Member to

71

carry back to any Tax Period ending on or prior to the Closing Date any net operating loss or other Tax attribute arising after the Closing Date.

Section 9.02                           Tax Cooperation.  Purchaser and Parent Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other, in connection with the preparation, filing and execution of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation or other Proceeding with respect to Taxes (including any Tax Claim).  Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other Proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder or to testify at any such Proceeding.  Parent Seller and Purchaser agree to, and Purchaser agrees to cause the Acquired Companies to, (i) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to any Acquired Company relating to any Tax Period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or Parent Seller, any extensions thereof) of the respective Tax Periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (ii) to give the other Party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other Party so requests, Parent Seller or the Acquired Companies, as the case may be, shall allow the other Party to take possession of such books and records.  Purchaser and Parent Seller further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other Person or take any other action as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that would be imposed on any Party (including with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement).

Section 9.03                           Tax Indemnification.

(a)                                 Except to the extent of any Taxes that were taken into account in the determination of Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital, from and after the Closing, Parent Seller agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnitees from and against all (i) Taxes of any Tax Group Member with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than Purchaser Taxes), (ii) Taxes arising out of or related to the breach of any covenants in this Article IX, (iii) Taxes imposed on any Tax Group Member as a result of being a member of a consolidated, combined, unitary or similar group on or prior to the Closing Date, by reason of the Liability of any Tax Group Member pursuant to U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6(a) (or any predecessor or successor thereof or any analogous or similar provision under any Applicable Law) and (iv) Taxes arising out of or related to any breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.17 (to the extent not indemnifiable pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above); provided, however, that unless otherwise provided under Applicable Law, the Liability of Sellers under this Section 9.03 for property Taxes shall reflect Sellers’ direct and indirect percentage ownership in the relevant Tax Group Member or Non-Tax Group Member.  Subject to Section 9.08, Parent Seller shall not be liable for or pay for any Taxes that are imposed on Parent Seller or any Affiliate of Parent Seller, or any Tax Group Member as a result of actions taken or elections made by Purchaser or any Tax Group Member after the Closing (collectively, “Purchaser Taxes”); provided, however, Purchaser Taxes shall not include, and Parent Seller shall remain liable for, any Taxes imposed on Parent Seller, any Affiliate of Parent Seller or any Tax Group Member, (x) where the actions taken or elections made by Purchaser or such Tax Group Member are required by Applicable Law and consented to by Sellers, such

72

consent not to be unreasonably withheld, or (y) result from any Section 338(h)(10) Election made in accordance with Section 9.08.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Sellers shall not indemnify Purchaser Indemnitees for Taxes of any Acquired Company for any Post-Closing Tax Period unless such Taxes result from adjustments of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local or foreign Income Tax law) resulting from a breach of the representation in Section 4.17(j).  No Party shall have any responsibility or obligation for the Taxes of any Person that is neither a Tax Group Member nor a Non-Tax Group Member, except as specifically set forth in this Section 9.03.

(b)                                 From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall indemnify, save and hold harmless the Seller Indemnitees from and against (i) Taxes of any Tax Group Member for any Post-Closing Tax Period, (ii) Purchaser Taxes and (iii) Taxes arising from or related to the breach of any covenant in this Article IX.

(c)                                  In the case of any Straddle Period:

(i)             real, personal and intangible property Taxes and any other Taxes of any Tax Group Member for any Pre-Closing Tax Period that are levied on a per diem basis (“Per Diem Taxes”) shall be equal to the amount of such Per Diem Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Straddle Period;

(ii)          all Real Property Taxes (other than Real Property Taxes arising in respect of a transfer or disposal (in either case, whether directly or indirectly) of any Real Property) and personal property Taxes levied or assessed for the Tax Period that includes the Closing Date shall be prorated at Closing and taken into account in the calculation of Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital.  Such proration shall be made on a per diem basis (calculated pursuant to the formula set forth in Section 9.03(c)(i) above), as of the close of business on the Closing Date.  If the actual property Taxes for the then-current calendar year are not known as of the Closing Date, such proration shall be based upon the actual Taxes assessed with respect to the real estate or personal property Tax bill, as applicable, for the immediately preceding year.  Such proration shall be recalculated upon the issuance of final Tax bills for the applicable calendar year.  Any amount due from one Party to another Party hereto as a result of such recalculation shall promptly be paid in immediately available funds; and

(iii)       the Taxes of any Tax Group Member (other than Per Diem Taxes or Purchaser Taxes) for any Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if such Straddle Period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the Tax Period of any partnership or other pass-through entity which is a Tax Group Member or in which a Tax Group Member holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time).  Any exemptions, deductions or credits relating to a Straddle Period that are calculated on an annual or other periodic basis shall be apportioned to the Pre-Closing Period by determining the amount thereof for the entire Straddle Period and then multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Straddle Period.

73

(d)                                 Except to the extent taken into account in determining Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital, Sellers shall be entitled to any refund of, or credit for or reduction in, Taxes of any Tax Group Member for any Tax Period ending on or before the Closing Date.  The amount of any refunds of, or credits for or reductions in, Taxes of the Tax Group Members for Tax Periods beginning after the Closing Date shall be for the account of Purchaser.  The amount or economic benefit of any refunds of, or credits for or reduction in or other offsets of, Taxes for a Straddle Period shall be apportioned in a manner consistent with Section 9.03(c).  A Party shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the other Party the amount of such refund, credit, reduction or offset owed to such other Party within ten (10) days of receipt or credit thereof.

Section 9.04                           Procedures Relating to Indemnification of Tax Claims.

(a)                                 If an audit, examination, inquiry or other claim shall be made by any Governmental Authority which, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment pursuant to Section 9.03(a) or Section 9.03(b), or if a Party otherwise wishes to assert a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.03(a) or Section 9.03(b) (each a “Tax Claim”), the Indemnified Parties shall deliver written notice, specifying the basis for and amount (if known) of the claim asserted, to the Indemnifying Parties within five (5) days of the date such Tax Claim becomes known; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Parties have actually been prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(b)                                 With respect to any Tax Claim relating to a Tax Period ending on or before the Closing Date, Parent Seller shall have the exclusive right, at its own expense, to control all Proceedings and may make all decisions taken in connection with such Tax Claim, including all decisions to grant or deny any waiver or extension of the applicable statute of limitations.  Parent Seller and Purchaser shall jointly control all Proceedings with respect to any Tax Claim relating to any Straddle Period, other than Tax Claims involving Group Tax Returns, which shall remain under the exclusive control of Parent Seller.  A Party shall promptly notify the other Party if it decides not to control the defense or settlement of any Tax Claim which it is entitled to control pursuant to this Agreement, and the other Party shall thereupon be permitted to defend and settle such Proceeding.

(c)                                  The Parties shall satisfy their indemnity obligations pursuant to Section 9.03 within ten (10) days after a final determination (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code) of the relevant Tax is made.

Section 9.05                           Coordination With Article X.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the recourse of any Purchaser Indemnitee for any and all Losses relating to or arising from Tax matters, including those set forth in Section 4.17 or this Article IX shall be controlled by this Article IX rather than Article X.  In the event the provisions of Sections 9.03 or 9.04 and the provisions of Article X conflict or otherwise each apply by their terms, Sections 9.03 or 9.04, as applicable, shall exclusively govern all matters concerning Taxes; provided that (a) Section 10.01(b), Section 10.02(d), Section 10.02(e), Section 10.02(f), Section 10.02(g), Section 10.02(h), Section 10.02(i), Section 10.02(j), Section 10.04(d) and Section 10.04(e) shall apply in any event and (b) Section 10.02(c)(iii) shall apply to indemnification under Section 9.03(a)(iv).

74

Section 9.06                           Transfer Taxes.  All sales, use, stamp, documentary, filing, recording, transfer or similar fees or Taxes or governmental charges as levied by any Governmental Authority, including any interest and penalties, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser and fifty percent (50%) by Sellers.  The Party required by Applicable Law shall file any Tax Returns with respect to such Transfer Taxes within the time prescribed by Applicable Law and shall remit all such Transfer Taxes when due.  Purchaser and Sellers shall reasonably cooperate in the preparation and filing of Tax Returns with respect to Transfer Taxes, including joining in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.  Upon receipt of evidence of payment of any Transfer Taxes, Purchaser or Sellers, as applicable, shall reimburse the other for any Transfer Taxes paid by Purchaser or Sellers on behalf of the other, up to such Party’s pro rata share in accordance with this Section 9.06.  In reliance on the representations and warranties of Sellers set forth in Section 4.10(i) and on Section 201.02(2), Florida Statutes, no Florida Transfer Taxes are required to be paid in connection with Sellers’ sale of those Transferred Interests set forth on Schedule 9.06.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, since no direct interest in the Owned Real Property located in Florida is being transferred, no Florida documentary stamp taxes are being paid in connection with the Owned Real Property located in Florida.

Section 9.07                           Tax Sharing Agreements.  Each Seller shall cause any Tax Sharing Agreement or similar arrangement between such Seller or any Affiliate of such Seller which is not an Acquired Company, on the one hand, and an Acquired Company, on the other hand, to be terminated with respect to such Acquired Company on or prior to the Closing Date.  After the Closing Date, none of the Acquired Companies shall have any rights or obligations under any such terminated Tax Sharing Agreement or any other Tax Sharing Agreement whether for the current year, a future year or a past year.

Section 9.08                            Allocation of Purchase Price; Section 338(h)(10) Election.

(a)                                 The Final Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Target Subsidiaries as set forth on Exhibit M (the “Purchase Price Allocation”).  If no Section 338(h)(10) Elections are made, the portion of the Purchase Price Allocation allocated to any Target Subsidiary that is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal Income Tax purposes shall be further allocated among the assets of such disregarded Target Subsidiary, in a manner consistent with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and with the applicable procedures for the Asset Allocations set forth in Section 9.08(a)-(e).

(b)                                 At the request of Purchaser, HHC, the Acquired Companies and Purchaser shall jointly make a timely election pursuant to Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any corresponding election under state, local or foreign Tax law) with respect to each Transferred Interest eligible for such election (each election a “Section 338(h)(10) Election”).  If such request is made, HHC and Purchaser shall file all Tax Returns consistent with such Section 338(h)(10) Election and shall not take any action that would reasonably be expected to cause any such Section 338(h)(10) Election to be invalid, and shall not take any position contrary thereto unless required to do so pursuant to a determination (as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar state, foreign or local tax provision).  Purchaser shall prepare copies of IRS Form 8023 with respect to each Section 338(h)(10) Election, including any schedules thereto, and any

75

similar state, local or foreign forms (collectively, the “Section 338 Forms”) as may be required.  Sellers shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in the preparation of such Section 338 Forms, and Purchaser and Sellers shall deliver duly executed final copies of such Section 338 Forms on the Closing Date.

(c)                                  With respect to each Acquired Company for which a Section 338(h)(10) Election is made and consistent with Section 9.08(a), the applicable portion of the Final Purchase Price (plus Liabilities of the applicable Acquired Company, to the extent such Liabilities should be included in determining the “adjusted grossed-up basis” as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.338-5) shall be allocated among such Acquired Company’s assets in accordance with Sections 338 and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (and any similar provisions of state, local or foreign law, as appropriate) (collectively, the “Asset Allocations”).  The Asset Allocations shall be delivered by Purchaser to Parent Seller within sixty (60) days after the final determination of the Closing Adjusted Net Working Capital pursuant to Section 2.03.

(d)                                 The Purchase Price Allocation and the Asset Allocations, as applicable (collectively, the “Allocations”), shall be revised to appropriately take into account any payments made pursuant to Section 9.03 or Section 10.02, or any other provisions of the Agreement, and Purchaser shall deliver to Parent Seller amended Allocations reflecting any such revisions.

(e)                                  Purchaser, each Seller, their Affiliates and any other applicable Persons (each a “Tax Filing Party”) shall file all Tax Returns consistent with the Allocations (as they may be amended pursuant to Section 9.08(d)), including IRS Forms 8594 and 8883, using where applicable the “aggregate deemed sales price (ADSP)” and the “adjusted grossed-up basis (AGUB)” as described in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.338-4 and 1.338-5, respectively.  No Tax Filing Party shall take any Tax position inconsistent with the Allocations, or agree to any proposed adjustment to the Allocations by any Governmental Authority, without first giving the other party prior written notice; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent a Tax Filing Party from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Authority based upon or arising out of an Allocation, and no Tax Filing Party shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Authority challenging such Allocation.

ARTICLE X.
INDEMNIFICATION

Section 10.01                    Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants.  To the extent that the representations and warranties and covenants of the Parties contained in this Agreement are to survive the Closing, they shall survive for the applicable respective periods set forth in this Section 10.01 (each a “Survival Period”), and any and all claims and causes of action for indemnification under Article IX and this Article X arising out of the inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of a Party must be made prior to the termination of the applicable Survival Period.  The Parties intend to shorten the statute of limitations and agree that any claim arising out of or related to all of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Parties contained in this Agreement and any and all claims and causes of action for indemnification under Article IX and this Article X shall survive as follows:

76

(a)                                 the Sellers Fundamental Representations and the Purchaser Fundamental Representations shall survive indefinitely;

(b)                                 the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.12(b) and Section 4.17 shall survive until sixty (60) days following expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (after taking into account any waivers, extensions, mitigation or tolling thereof);

(c)                                  the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.09, Section 4.18 and Section 4.19 shall survive for two (2) years after the Closing Date;

(d)                                 the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.13 shall survive for three (3) years after the Closing Date with respect to each of the Acquired Companies, except for Highlands Inn Wastewater Treatment Plant Association, Inc., in which case the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.13 shall survive for five (5) years after the Closing Date;

(e)                                  all other representations and warranties of the Parties shall survive for eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date;

(f)                                   each pre-Closing covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement shall survive for eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date; and

(g)                                  each covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement that, by its terms, provides for performance following the Closing shall survive and continue in full force and effect until such covenant is fully performed or observed in accordance with its terms, including, but not limited to, covenants or agreements related to Excluded Assets and Liabilities; provided, however, that the obligations to indemnify pursuant to Section 9.03(a) and Section 9.03(b) shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations (after taking into account any waivers, extensions, mitigation or tolling thereof).

Notwithstanding the foregoing (i) any obligations to indemnify, defend and hold harmless pursuant to Section 9.03 or Section 10.02 shall not terminate with respect to any item as to which the Indemnified Party shall have, before the expiration of the applicable Survival Period, previously made a claim by delivering a notice of such claim (stating in reasonable detail the basis of such claim) to the Indemnifying Party in accordance with Section 9.04 or Section 10.03 and (ii) this Section 10.01 shall not limit any covenant or agreement of the Parties which contemplates performance after the Closing.

Section 10.02                    Obligation to Indemnify.

(a)                                 Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X, if the Closing occurs, Parent Seller agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) from and against all Losses sustained or incurred by any Purchaser Indemnitee to the extent arising out of or related to:

77

(i)             any breach of any representation and warranty made to Purchaser by any Seller in Article IV (other than breaches of representations and warranties of Sellers contained in Section 4.17, which shall be governed by Section 9.03);

(ii)          any breach by any Seller of any of the covenants and agreements of any Seller contained in this Agreement (including its obligations in this Article X and on Schedule 6.03(a)); and

(iii)       any Excluded Assets and Liabilities.

(b)                                 Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article X, if the Closing occurs, Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Parent Seller and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) from and against all Losses sustained or incurred by any Seller Indemnitee to the extent arising out of or related to:

(i)             any breach of any representation and warranty made to Sellers by Purchaser or Purchaser Parent in Article V;

(ii)          any breach of any of the covenants and agreements of Purchaser or Purchaser Parent contained in this Agreement (including its obligations in this Article X and on Schedule 6.03(a));

(iii)       any claims to the extent related to the operation of the Business following the Closing Date, except to the extent Sellers are obligated to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to Section 10.02(a) in respect thereof;

(iv)      any amounts paid or required to be paid by Parent Seller or any of its Affiliates under any Host Maui Project Guarantee (other than any amounts paid or required to be paid by Parent Seller or any of its Affiliates pursuant to the Maui Agreement Among Guarantors that arises directly out of a Bad Act of Parent Seller or such Affiliate prior to the Closing); and

(v)         any amounts required to be paid by Parent Seller or any of its Affiliates for any Liability arising after the Closing under that certain Indemnity Agreement, dated October 29, 2012, by HHC and Host Hotels and Resorts, L.P. for the benefit of Fidelity National Title Insurance Company; provided that such Liability arose from the failure of the Maui JV to have made any required payments under the Maui Construction Loan following Closing.

(c)                                  Notwithstanding the provisions of Article IX or this Article X, (i) other than for a claim for indemnification arising out of or related to any breach of the Sellers Fundamental Representations, no Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.02(a)(i) for Losses resulting from any single claim or series of related claims that does not exceed $25,000; (ii) other than for a claim for indemnification arising out of or related to any breach of the Sellers Fundamental Representations, no Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.02(a)(i) unless and until the total of all Losses suffered or incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitees (other than with respect to claims excluded pursuant to clause (i) above) exceeds an amount equal to $2,000,000, and then only to the extent of such excess; (iii) other than for a claim for indemnification arising out of or related to any breach of

78

the Sellers Fundamental Representations, in no event shall the aggregate amount to be paid for Losses incurred by Purchaser Indemnitees for which such Purchaser Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.03(a)(iv) or Section 10.02(a)(i) exceed $22,000,000; and (iv) in no event shall the aggregate amount to be paid for Losses incurred by Purchaser Indemnitees for which such Purchaser Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.02(a) exceed the Final Purchase Price.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnification obligations of any Seller for any Losses resulting from fraud or intentional misrepresentation shall not be subject to any of the limitations contained in this Section 10.02(c).

(d)                                 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article X, in no event shall the aggregate amount to be paid for Losses incurred by Seller Indemnitees for which such Seller Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.02(b)(iv) (other than for Losses that arise directly out of a Bad Act of Purchaser or its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) from and after the Closing) exceed $36,670,000.

(e)                                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Person shall, in any event, be liable under Section 9.03 or this Article X to any other Person for any consequential, incidental, indirect, special or punitive damages of such other Person, including loss of future revenue, income or profits, diminution of value or loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach hereof, except as may be asserted in connection with any Third Party Claim.  Nothing in this Section 10.02(e) shall be construed to limit in any respect the Losses that Sellers may recover from Purchaser in the event that Purchaser fails to proceed to the Closing in breach of this Agreement.

(f)                                   No Seller shall have any Liability under Section 9.03 or this Article X to the Purchaser Indemnitees in respect of any Losses to the extent (but only to the extent) that:

(i)             the provision or reserve in respect of any Liability or other matter giving rise to the Loss (or any part thereof) was made in the Latest Balance Sheet or in the Closing ANWC Statement;

(ii)          the Loss (or any part thereof) in question arises, or is increased, as a result of a change after the Closing (unless otherwise required by Applicable Law) in any accounting policy, any Tax reporting practice or accounting method or the length of any accounting period for Tax purposes of any Acquired Company; or

(iii)       the Purchaser Indemnities otherwise recovered for the Loss (or any part thereof) in question under any other Transaction Document.

(g)                                  The amount of any Losses under Section 9.03 or this Article X sustained by a Purchaser Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee shall be reduced by (i) any amount actually received by such Purchaser Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee with respect thereto under any insurance coverage (net of any retention amounts, recovery costs, increases in premium and related deductible payable by the Indemnified Person or any such Affiliates in connection therewith), including pursuant to Section 7.07, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible therefor, and (ii) any Tax Benefit attributable to the Loss or to the facts giving rise to the Loss, which Tax

79

Benefit is Actually Realized in the two (2) years beginning with the taxable year of such Loss.  The existence of a claim for monies by a Purchaser Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee against an insurer or other third party in respect of any Losses shall not, however, unreasonably delay any payment otherwise due and owing under this Article X so long as such Purchaser Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee is using commercially reasonable efforts to collect against such claim in accordance with the immediately following sentence.  The Purchaser Indemnitees and the Seller Indemnitees shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under such insurance coverage and from such other Person alleged to have responsibility and to cause any Tax Benefit with respect to the Loss to be Actually Realized in the two (2) years beginning with the taxable year of such Loss.  If a Purchaser Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee has a Tax Benefit Actually Realized in the two (2) years beginning with the taxable year of the Loss or actually receives an amount under insurance coverage or from such other Person relating to Losses sustained at any time subsequent to any indemnification payment pursuant to Section 9.03 or this Article X, then such Purchaser Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee shall promptly reimburse the applicable Indemnifying Party for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification up to such amount actually received by such Purchaser Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee, as applicable, net of any retention amounts, recovery costs, increases in premium and related deductible payable by the Indemnified Person or any such Affiliates in connection therewith.

(h)                                 Each Indemnified Party shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate to the fullest extent practicable the amount of any Loss for which it is entitled to seek indemnification under Section 9.03 or this Article X, and the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to make any payment to an Indemnified Party in respect of such Loss to the extent such Indemnified Party has failed to comply with the foregoing obligation.

(i)                                     Upon making any indemnification payment under Section 9.03 or this Article X, the Indemnifying Party may, to the extent of such payment and if permitted under applicable Contracts or insurance policies, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party in respect of the Loss to which the indemnification payment relates.  Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, each such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above-described subrogation rights.

(j)                                    No Party shall have any right to set-off any Losses under Section 9.03 or this Article X against any payments to be made by such Party or Parties pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement among any of the Parties or their respective Affiliates.

Section 10.03                    Claims Notice.  Other than with respect to Tax Claims, which are addressed in Section 9.04, in the event that either a Purchaser Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee wishes to assert a claim for indemnification hereunder, such Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall deliver written notice (a “Claims Notice”) to the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) no later than ten (10) Business Days after such claim becomes known to the Indemnified Party, specifying the facts constituting the basis for, and the amount (if known) of, the claim asserted.  Failure to deliver a Claims Notice with respect to a claim in a timely manner as specified in the preceding sentence shall not be deemed a waiver of the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder for Losses in connection with such claim except to the

80

extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually materially prejudiced as a result of such failure, but the amount of reimbursement to which the Indemnified Party is entitled shall be reduced by the amount, if any, by which the Indemnified Party’s Losses would have been less had such Claims Notice been timely delivered.

Section 10.04                    Right to Contest Claims of Third Parties.

(a)                                 Except with respect to Tax Claims, which are addressed in Section 9.04, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, to investigate, contest, assume the defense of or settle any claim or demand made, or any Proceeding instituted, by any Person not a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claimant”) that may result in a Loss with respect to which the Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article X (a “Third Party Claim”); provided that the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of a Third Party Claim (i) involving alleged criminal liability, or (ii) in which equitable relief is sought against the Indemnified Party (but only with respect to the part of any Third Party Claim seeking equitable relief), provided, further, that the Indemnified Party may, at its option and at its own expense, participate in the investigation, contesting, defense or settlement of any such Third Party Claim through representatives and counsel of its own choosing, cost and expense; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Third Party Claim unless (A) such settlement is on exclusively monetary terms and provides for a full release of the Indemnified Party or (B) the Indemnified Party shall have consented to the terms of such settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim or, if appropriate and related to the Third Party Claim in question, in making at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party any counterclaim against the Third Party Claimant or any cross complaint against any Person.  The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party (x) for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has failed (or is not permitted) to assume the defense thereof (other than during the period prior to the time the Indemnified Party shall have given notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above) and (z) if the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense thereof, if Indemnified Party reasonably concludes, upon the advice of counsel, that the Indemnified Party has one or more defenses that are inconsistent with one or more of those available to the Indemnifying Party in respect of any Third Party Claim.  Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not settle, compromise or pay any Third Party Claim for which it seeks indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(b)                                 The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not to control) the defense of any Third Party Claim which it has not elected to assume the defense of with its own counsel and at its own expense.

(c)                                  Purchaser, on the one hand, and each Seller, on the other hand, shall make mutually available to each other all relevant information in their possession relating to any Third Party Claim (except to the extent that such action would result in a loss of attorney client privilege) and shall cooperate with each other in the defense thereof.

81

(d)                                 Any payment under Section 9.03 or this Article X shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as the Indemnified Party shall designate to the Indemnifying Party in writing.

(e)                                  Following the Closing, except for fraud and intentional misrepresentation, the indemnities provided for in Section 9.03 and this Article X shall be the exclusive remedies of the Parties, the Seller Indemnitees and the Purchaser Indemnitees for any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty and any breach, non-fulfillment or default in the performance of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, and the Parties shall not be entitled to rescission of this Agreement or to any further contract, tort or indemnification rights or claims of any nature whatsoever in respect thereof, all of which the Parties hereby waive; provided that, this Section 10.04(e) shall not operate to interfere with or impede the operation of any covenant or agreement of the Parties that, by its terms, provides for performance following the Closing, or with respect to a Party’s right to seek equitable remedies (including specific performance or injunctive relief) for a breach or threatened breach thereof pursuant to Section 11.14.

Section 10.05                    Construction of Representations and Warranties.  For purposes of calculating Losses in connection with a claim for indemnification under Article IX and Article X, each of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements that contains any qualifications as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect shall be deemed to have been given as though there were no such qualifications, and any such qualifications shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating Losses under Article IX and this Article X.

Any Party(ies) may, by notice given in accordance with this Section 11.01 to the other Party(ies), designate another address or Person for receipt of notices hereunder; provided that notice of such a change shall be effective upon receipt.

Section 11.02                    Applicable Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.

Section 11.03                    Arbitration; Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue.

(a)                                 Except as otherwise set forth herein, arbitration shall be the exclusive remedy for resolving any dispute or controversy under or pursuant to this Agreement, any Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, including the arbitrability of any such dispute or controversy and the enforceability of this Section 11.03(a).  Such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the then most applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association.  The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant only such relief as would be available in a court of law; provided that the arbitrator shall not have the power or authority to award indirect, consequential or punitive damages.  In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the rules of the American Arbitration Association, the provisions of this Agreement shall be determinative.  If the Parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within five (5) Business Days of the commencement of any such dispute, they shall select a single arbitrator from a list of five (5) arbitrators designated by the office of the American Arbitration Association having responsibility for the City of Wilmington, Delaware, all of whom shall be retired judges who are actively involved in hearing private cases or members of the National Academy of Arbitrators.

84

If the Parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator from such list, they shall each strike names alternatively from the list, with the first to strike being determined by lot.  After each Party has used two (2) strikes, the remaining name on the list shall be the arbitrator.  The fees and expenses of the arbitrator shall initially be borne equally by the Parties; provided, however, that each Party shall initially be responsible for the fees and expenses of its own representatives and witnesses.  If the Parties cannot agree upon a location for the arbitration, the arbitrator shall determine the location.  The Parties shall instruct the arbitrator to enter a judgment within thirty (30) days of commencement of the arbitration proceeding.  Judgment of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the Parties, and may be entered on the award of the arbitrator in any court having jurisdiction.  The prevailing party in the arbitration proceeding, as determined by the arbitrator, and in any enforcement or other court proceedings, shall be entitled to reimbursement from the other party for all of the prevailing party’s costs (including the arbitrator’s compensation), expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees.

(b)                                 Each Party to this Agreement irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of, and venue in, the courts of the State of Delaware and of the United States sitting in New Castle County, Delaware for the purposes of any Proceeding seeking temporary or preliminary injunctive relief pending arbitration or to enforce this arbitration provision or any award pursuant to Section 11.03(a), and waives any objection based on forum non conveniens.  Each Party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by certified or registered mail to such Party’s respective address set forth above and by electronic mail shall be effective service of process for any Proceeding in Delaware with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 11.03(b).

Section 11.04                    WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY.  EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

Section 11.05                    Transaction Expenses.  Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, pay the costs, fees and expenses incident to its negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance hereof, including the fees and expenses of its counsel, accountants, advisors and other representatives; provided, that, if Purchaser has been furnished with the Audited Financial Statements and this Agreement is subsequently terminated pursuant to Section 8.01(a), Section 8.01(b), Section 8.01(c) or Section 8.01(e), Purchaser shall promptly reimburse Parent Seller for fifty percent (50%) of the cost of obtaining the Audited Financial Statements (such fifty percent (50%) portion not to exceed $125,000) upon such termination.

Section 11.06                    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement (together with the Disclosure Schedules and the Exhibits and Schedules hereto) and the other Transaction Documents (including the exhibits and schedules thereto) contain the entire agreement among the Parties

85

with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, written or oral, with respect thereto other than the Confidentiality Agreement, which the Parties agree shall terminate and be of no further force and effect as of the Closing.

Section 11.07                    Waivers and Amendments; Non Contractual Remedies; Preservation of Remedies.  This Agreement may be amended, superseded, canceled, renewed or extended, 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.  Except as provided in Article IX and Article X, no delay on the part of any Party on 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, or 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.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that any Party may otherwise have at law or in equity.

Section 11.08                    Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement (or any portion thereof) or the application of any such provision (or any portion thereof) to any Person or circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a Governmental Authority, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof (or the remaining portion thereof) or the application of such provision to any other Persons or circumstances.  Upon such determination that any provision of this Agreement (or any portion thereof) of the application of any such provision (or any portion thereof) to any Person or circumstance is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 11.09                    Binding Effect; Assignment.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, permitted assigns and legal representatives.  Neither this Agreement, nor any right hereunder, may be assigned by any Party (in whole or in part) without the prior written consent of all other Parties, except that Purchaser may assign all or a portion of its rights hereunder to an Affiliate; provided that no such assignment shall relieve either Purchaser or Purchaser Parent of any of its obligations hereunder.  Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 11.09 shall be null and void.

Section 11.10                    Interpretation.  For purposes of this Agreement, the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole unless otherwise indicated.  Whenever the singular is used herein, the same shall include the plural, and whenever the plural is used herein, the same shall include the singular, where appropriate.  All terms defined herein in the singular shall have the same meaning when used in the plural; all terms defined herein in the plural shall have the same meaning when used in the singular.

(a)                                 With regard to each and every term and condition of this Agreement, the Parties understand and agree that the same have or has been mutually negotiated, prepared and drafted, and that if at any time the Parties desire or are required to interpret or construe any such term or condition or any agreement or instrument subject hereto, no consideration shall be given to the

86

issue of which Party actually prepared, drafted or requested any term or condition of this Agreement.

(b)                                 All references herein to Articles, Sections, subsections, paragraphs, subparagraphs and clauses shall be deemed references to such parts of this Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require.

(c)                                  All pronouns and any variations thereof refer to the masculine, feminine or neuter, singular or plural, as the context may require.

(d)                                 The words “include” and “including” and variations thereof shall not be deemed terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

(e)                                  Any accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP.

(f)                                   All references herein to any Person includes, as applicable, such Person’s heirs, executors, personal representatives, administrators, successors and permitted assigns; provided that nothing contained in this Section 11.10(f) is intended to authorize any assignment or transfer not otherwise permitted by this Agreement or by any of the Transaction Documents.

(g)                                  All references herein to this Agreement shall be deemed to include this Agreement and all Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement, which are made a part hereof and incorporated herein by reference, and all references to Schedules and Exhibits shall be deemed to be references to the Schedules and Exhibits of this Agreement attached hereto.

Section 11.11                    No Third Party Beneficiaries.  Except as set forth in Sections 7.02, 9.03 and Article X, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any Person, other than the Parties, their successors and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.

Section 11.12                    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each Party and delivered to the other Party.  The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by facsimile or by electronic delivery in PDF format shall be sufficient to bind the Parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 11.13                    Headings.  The headings in this Agreement are for reference only, and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 11.14                    Specific Performance.  The Parties expressly acknowledge that any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by the other Party or Parties may result in irreparable and continuing damage to the non-breaching Party or Parties for which there may not be an adequate remedy at law and that, in the event of any beach of this Agreement, the non-breaching Party or Parties shall be entitled to injunctive relief, including specific performance, and to such further and other relief as may be necessary and proper to ensure compliance by the breaching Party or Parties with this Agreement, and the Parties consent to the entry of such

87

relief, without necessity of posting bond or other security (any requirements therefor being expressly waived).

Section 11.15                    Guarantee.  Purchaser Parent is executing this Agreement to guaranty the due and prompt performance, payment and discharge when due of all of the obligations of Purchaser or its Affiliates hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents in accordance with their express terms (such obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  Whenever this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents requires Purchaser or its Affiliates to take any action, such requirement shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part of Purchaser Parent to cause Purchaser or such Affiliates to take such action.  The Guaranteed Obligations are primary, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and such obligations shall continue in full force and effect until the payment and performance, as applicable, of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and are not conditioned upon any event or contingency or upon any attempt first to obtain payment from Purchaser or its Affiliates under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, or pursuit of any other right or remedy against Purchaser or such Affiliates through the commencement of Proceedings or otherwise.  With respect to its obligations hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents, Purchaser Parent expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever.  Purchaser Parent acknowledges and agrees that its obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents shall continue in full force and effect, without notice from any other Party, in the event the obligations of Purchaser or its Affiliates under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents are amended or in any way modified, and that the Guaranteed Obligations shall continue and shall apply in full to such amended obligations of Purchaser or such Affiliates as though the amended terms had been part of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, as applicable, from the original date of execution thereof.  Purchaser Parent reserves the right to assert defenses that Purchaser or its Affiliates may have to payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations. The foregoing guarantee is a continuing guarantee and shall remain in full force and effect for so long as any such payments may become due and payable.
