2.5    Purchase Price.  The aggregate purchase price for the Purchased Assets (as adjusted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the “Purchase Price”) shall consist exclusively of:
(a)    $298,500,000 in cash (as adjusted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the “Closing Cash Consideration”) to be paid by Buyer (or by Parent on behalf of Buyer) to Sellers at Closing in accordance with Section 2.6(a);
(b)    $1,500,000 in cash (the “Holdback Cash Consideration”) to be paid by Buyer (or by Parent on behalf of Buyer) to Sellers in accordance with Section 2.6(c); and

The Closing Cash Consideration and Holdback Cash Consideration may be increased or decreased (as provided below) for the cumulative net adjustments required as of or following the Closing.
2.6    Payment of Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price shall be payable by Buyer as follows:
(a)    Closing Cash Consideration. At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to Sellers, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by Sellers in writing and delivered to Parent no later than three Business Days prior to Closing, an amount in cash equal to the Closing Cash Consideration, minus (i) any Indebtedness of Sellers, (ii) any Seller Transaction Expenses or other amounts that Sellers request be funded out of the Closing Cash Consideration in accordance with Section 6.14, (iii) the amount (if any) by which the Target Working Capital exceeds the Estimated Working Capital (as set forth in the Estimated Working Capital Certificate) and (iv) an amount equal to (x) the amount (if any) by which the revenues of the Business reflected on the Unaudited Carve-Out Financial Statements of the Business exceed the revenues of the Business reflected on the

6




Audited Carve-Out Financial Statements of the Business multiplied by (y) 8.43 (the “Carve-Out Adjustment Amount”), but only to the extent such Carve-Out Adjustment Amount is equal to or greater than $500,000.
(b)    Indebtedness. At the Closing, upon receipt of commercially reasonable evidence of release or payoff letters, as applicable, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, for any Indebtedness and any corresponding UCC-3 Termination Statement required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(i), Buyer shall remit from the Closing Cash Consideration to holders of Indebtedness of Sellers existing on the Closing Date an amount equal to such Indebtedness.
(c)    Holdback Cash Consideration; Release Dates. At the Closing, Buyer shall retain the amount of the Holdback Cash Consideration, which will constitute partial security for the satisfaction of Sellers’ indemnity and other obligations under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (the “Seller Party Obligations”). Buyer shall retain and shall have the right to subtract from the Holdback Cash Consideration (i) the amount, if any, to which Buyer is entitled pursuant to Section 2.7(d) (Working Capital Shortfall), (ii) any Indemnified Representation Losses for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article 9 and (iii) if Buyer so elects, any other Indemnified Losses for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article 9. Buyer shall pay the balance of the Holdback Cash Consideration to Seller (or its written designee(s)) as follows:
(i)    Within 30 days after the 12-month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Release Date”), Buyer shall pay to Sellers an amount equal to (A) the Holdback Cash Consideration, minus (B) the amount, if any, subtracted by Buyer from the Holdback Cash Consideration pursuant to Section 2.7(c), minus (C) the amount of all Indemnified Losses that have been subtracted by Buyer from the Holdback Cash Consideration pursuant to Article 9 as of such date, minus (D) any amounts described in Section 2.6(c)(ii) below.
(ii)    To the extent that as of the Release Date there are claims by the Indemnified Parties for indemnification against the Indemnifying Parties pursuant to Article 9 pending or any of the Seller Party Obligations has been breached or has not been performed, Buyer shall retain from the payment of the Holdback Cash Consideration a reasonable amount to cover potential costs, expenses or damages to be incurred by the Indemnified Parties, as determined by Buyer in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, until such time as such claims have been dismissed, adjudicated or settled, or such breaches have been cured or compensated, as applicable.
2.7    Working Capital Adjustment.
(a)    The Closing Cash Consideration shall be subject to further adjustment at and after the Closing as specified in this Section 2.7. The target Working Capital at Closing shall be $3,429,230 (“Target Working Capital”). No less than five business days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall provide a written certificate to Parent (the “Estimated Working Capital Certificate”), which sets forth an estimate of the Working Capital of the Business as of the Closing Date (the “Estimated Working Capital”), determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied with Sellers’ past accounting practices, which are consistent with the example calculation set forth in Schedule 2.7. If the Target Working Capital exceeds the Estimated Working Capital, then the amount of the Closing Cash Consideration shall be reduced in accordance with Section 2.6(a). Parent and its representatives, including Parent’s independent accountants, will be entitled to review all work papers of Seller and its representatives, including its independent accountants, relating to the Estimated Working Capital. If Parent disputes the Estimated Working Capital (or any portion thereof) prior to the Closing Date, then Parent and Seller will negotiate in good faith to resolve any such dispute at or prior to the Closing Date and shall agree in writing upon the resolution thereof, which shall be reflected in a final Estimated Working Capital Certificate delivered at Closing.
(b)    Not later than 90 days after the Closing Date, Parent shall deliver to the Representative (i) a statement (the “Closing Working Capital Statement”) setting forth the Working Capital of the Business as of the Closing Date determined in accordance with the methodology described in Schedule 2.7 (“Final Working Capital”) and such work papers and other documents and information as are reasonably necessary to demonstrate the manner in which such Working Capital was calculated (the “Support Documentation”), or (ii) its good faith estimate of the date on which the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Support Documentation will be delivered, and shall deliver the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Support Documentation on or before such date.

7




(c)    The Representative (on behalf of the Sellers) shall, within 30 days after Parent’s delivery to Representative of the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Support Documentation, accept or reject the Working Capital calculation as submitted by Parent.
(i)    If the Representative rejects such calculation, the Representative shall give written notice (the “Working Capital Objection Notice”) to Parent within such 30-day period and provide a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis of any disagreement. If the Representative fails to notify Parent of any disagreement within such 30-day period, Sellers shall be deemed to have accepted Parent’s calculations. Further, if the Representative notifies Parent that the Representative disagrees only with a portion of Parent’s Working Capital calculation, then all remaining portions of Parent’s Working Capital calculation shall be deemed to have been accepted by Sellers. If the Representative delivers the Working Capital Objection Notice within such 30-day period, then Parent and the Representative shall endeavor in good faith to resolve the objections, for a period not to exceed 30 days from the date Parent receives the Working Capital Objection Notice, and if the Parties so resolve all disputes then the Closing Working Capital Statement, as amended to the extent necessary to reflect the resolution of the dispute, shall be final, conclusive and binding on Parent and Sellers.
(ii)    If the Parties have not resolved any disagreement with respect to the determination of the Working Capital within such 30-day period, then such disagreement shall be submitted to an accounting or consulting firm mutually agreeable to the Representative and Parent (the “Arbitrator”) for a final and binding resolution of the disagreement. The Arbitrator shall promptly determine the matters in dispute (and only such matters as are in dispute) relating to the calculation of Working Capital, and issue written findings of fact and conclusions in support thereof. Each Party shall furnish to the Arbitrator such work papers and other documents and information relating to such objections as the Arbitrator may request and are available to that Party (or its independent public accountants) and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Arbitrator any material relating to the determination of the matters in dispute and to discuss such determination with the Arbitrator.  To the extent that a value has been assigned to any objection that remains in dispute, the Arbitrator shall not assign a value to such objection that is greater than the greatest value for such objection claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such objection claimed by either Party. The determination by the Arbitrator, as set forth in a written notice delivered to both Parties by the Arbitrator, shall be made in accordance with this Agreement and shall be final and binding on the Parties and shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and unappealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereof.  The fees and expenses of the Arbitrator shall be paid by the Party whose calculation of the Working Capital of the Business as of the Closing Date is further from the Working Capital of the Business as of the Closing Date as determined by the Arbitrator. All proceedings conducted by the Arbitrator shall take place in Denver, Colorado. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties agree that the scope of the Arbitrator’s review shall be limited to the Closing Working Capital Statement and calculation of Working Capital of the Business. This provision for arbitration shall be specifically enforceable.
(d)    If the Final Working Capital (as finally determined in accordance with Section 2.7) is less than the Estimated Working Capital, then Parent may seek recovery of such shortfall (the “Working Capital Shortfall”) by making a claim for and deducting the Working Capital Shortfall from the Holdback Cash Consideration, without reference to or meeting any Threshold requirement, notwithstanding the provisions of Article 9. To the extent permitted under Applicable Law, the Parties will treat (and will cause each of their respective Affiliates to treat) any amounts payable with respect to any Working Capital Shortfall as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. For purposes of clarity, the Working Capital Shortfall shall be the amount by which the Final Working Capital is less than the lower of the Target Working Capital or the Estimated Working Capital, provided that the proper adjustment was made under Section 2.6(a).
2.8    Allocation of Purchase Price; Closing Matters
(a)    As soon as practicable after the Closing, Buyer shall allocate the Purchase Price (including those Assumed Liabilities that are Liabilities for Tax purposes) pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code and any other applicable Tax laws among the Purchased Assets and the non-compete agreement described in Section 6.11 for all Tax purposes in accordance with this Section (the “Allocation”) and deliver a statement to the Representative setting forth the Allocation. The Representative shall, within 30 days following its receipt of the Allocation, accept or reject the Allocation as submitted by Buyer. During this 30-day period, the Representative may request, and Parent shall endeavor to provide, documents and information reasonably necessary for the Representative to understand the

8




Allocation. If the Representative disagrees with the Allocation, the Representative shall give written notice to Buyer of such disagreement and the specific basis for such disagreement within such 30-day period. Should the Representative fail to notify Buyer in writing of a disagreement within such 30-day period, the Representative (on behalf of Sellers) shall be deemed to have agreed with Buyer’s Allocation. If the Representative gives written notice to Buyer of a disagreement and the specific basis for such disagreement within such 30-day period, then Buyer and the Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disputed items. If, after a period of 20 days following the date on which the Representative gives Buyer timely notice of such disagreement, any proposed change remains disputed, then Sellers, collectively on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall each be entitled to adopt their own positions regarding the Allocation to the extent of any differences arising from such disputed items, and the Representative (on behalf of Sellers) shall be deemed to have otherwise agreed with the Buyer’s Allocation. To the extent the Parties agree (or the Representative (on behalf of Sellers) is deemed to agree) on the Allocation, such Allocation, as agreed to (or deemed to be agreed to) is referred to herein as the “Final Allocation.” Buyer and Sellers shall file all Tax Returns (such as IRS Form 8594 or any other forms or reports required to be filed pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code or any comparable provisions of applicable law (“Section 1060 Forms”) in a manner that is consistent with the Final Allocation and refrain from taking any action inconsistent therewith, unless otherwise required to do so by applicable law or a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a)(1) of the Code; provided, however, that (i) Buyer’s cost for the Purchased Assets and the covenant not-to-compete described in Section 6.11 may differ from the total amount allocated hereunder to reflect the inclusion in the total cost of items (for example, capitalized acquisition costs) not included in the amount so allocated, (ii) the amount realized by Sellers may differ from the total amount allocated hereunder to reflect transaction costs that reduce the amount realized for federal income Tax purposes, and (iii) neither Seller or any of its Affiliates nor Buyer or any of its Affiliates will be obligated to litigate any challenge to the final Allocation Schedule by a Taxing authority. Buyer and Sellers shall file such Section 1060 Forms timely and in the manner required by applicable law. Buyer and Sellers also shall allocate and report any adjustments to the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, and any allocations made as a result of such adjustments (to the extent agreed to or deemed to be agreed to, applying the same procedures discussed above in this Section 2.8(a)) shall become part of the Final Allocation.
(b)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the closing of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m. (Central time) on the second business day after all conditions to Closing (other than the release of deliverables to be made at the Closing) have been satisfied or waived. The date of the Closing is herein referred to as the “Closing Date.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Closing shall be deemed effective for all purposes, and the right of possession of the Purchased Assets shall be deemed to have been passed to Buyer at 11:59 p.m. (Central time) on the Closing Date, and the Parties agree to acknowledge and use the Closing Date for all purposes, including for accounting and tax purposes.
(c)    Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Parties shall consummate the following on the Closing Date:
(i)    Seller shall deliver to Buyer the Purchased Assets and retain the Excluded Assets and the Excluded Liabilities;
(ii)    Buyer shall pay the Closing Cash Consideration;
(iii)    Buyer shall assume the Assumed Liabilities;
(iv)    the Parties shall deliver or cause to be delivered the Transfer Documents (as per Section 2.8(e)), the Transition Services Agreement and certificates and other documents and instruments required to be delivered by or on behalf of a Party hereof under Article 7.
(d)    Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, enter into, and cause their respective Subsidiaries, if applicable, to enter into, on the Closing Date, separate bills of sale and assignment and assumption agreements, including patent, trademark, copyright, domain name and contract assignments (collectively, the “Transfer Documents”) documenting the purchase and sale of each portion of the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities to be conveyed separately to Buyer. Such individual Transfer Documents will memorialize the transfer of the Purchased Assets to Buyer, Buyer’s assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, and Seller’s retention of the Excluded Assets and Excluded Liabilities.

9




(e)    The Transfer Documents shall be in substantially the applicable forms attached hereto as Exhibits B-1 through B-4, with such modifications as are necessary and appropriate as a result of differences in local laws or customs, in order to maintain substantially the same legal meaning and effect as provided for in this Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Transfer Document, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail.
(f)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Assumed Contract if an attempted assignment thereof, without consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or in any way adversely affect the rights of Buyer thereunder. Seller will use its reasonable best efforts (including payment of any reasonable third party costs) and Buyer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Seller to obtain the consent of the other parties to any such Assumed Contract for the assignment thereof to Buyer; provided, however, that neither Buyer nor its Affiliates shall be obligated to pay any consideration therefor to any third party from whom any such consent is requested and any costs related to obtaining such consent shall be the sole responsibility of Seller.
(g)    Unless and until such consent is obtained, or if an attempted assignment thereof would be ineffective or would materially adversely affect the rights of Seller thereunder so that Buyer would not in fact receive all rights and benefits under such Assumed Contract, then (i) Seller shall continue to be bound by such Assumed Contract and (ii) unless not permitted by the terms thereof or applicable Rules, Buyer shall, as agent or subcontractor for Seller, pay, perform and discharge fully, or cause to be paid, transferred or discharged all the obligations or other Liabilities of Seller under such Assumed Contract arising solely after the Closing Date (except to the extent expressly otherwise provided herein or in the Ancillary Agreements). Seller shall, without further consideration, pay and remit, or cause to be paid or remitted, to Buyer promptly all money, rights and other consideration received by Seller in respect of such performance. If and when any such consent shall be obtained or such Assumed Contract shall otherwise become assignable, Seller shall promptly assign all of such Seller rights, obligations and other Liabilities under such Assumed Contract to Buyer without receipt of further consideration, and Buyer shall, without the payment of any further consideration, assume the rights, obligations and other Liabilities under such Assumed Contract arising solely from and after the Closing Date (except to the extent expressly otherwise provided herein or in the Ancillary Agreements).
(h)    During the period from the Effective Date through the Closing Date, if Buyer reasonably determines in good faith that (i) any Excluded Contracts or other Contracts should be Assumed Contracts or that all or any portion of the Excluded Assets set forth on Schedule 2.2(l) should be a Purchased Asset, then, at no additional expense to Buyer, the Parties will amend the Schedules hereto to reflect such changes and transfer such Contracts or assets, as applicable, to Buyer as if such Contracts or assets had been a “Purchased Asset” as of the date of this Agreement.
2.9    Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer and its Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Buyer or any of its Affiliates is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other provision of applicable Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Body, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable payee in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made and in the manner required by this Agreement.

4.7    Taxes.  All Tax Returns required to have been filed (taking into account any extensions of time within which to file) by or with respect to any of the Sellers, the Purchased Assets, or the Business have been duly and timely filed, and all such Tax Returns were prepared in all respects in compliance with all applicable laws and are true, correct, and complete in all respects. All Taxes shown to be due on the foregoing Tax Returns or that were otherwise due and payable by any of the Sellers have been timely paid in full. The Sellers have timely and properly withheld with respect to its employees, independent contractors, and other third parties (and timely paid over any withheld amounts to the appropriate Tax authority) all income taxes, Federal Insurance Contribution Act amounts, Federal Unemployment Tax Act amounts and other Taxes as required to be withheld and paid over under applicable law.

14




this Agreement. No written claim has been made against any Seller by any taxing authority in a jurisdiction in which such Seller has not filed Tax Returns that it is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction with respect to the Purchased Assets or the Business. Sellers have not participated, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4(b), in any “reportable transaction” under Section 6011 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Sellers have disclosed on their respective Tax Returns all positions taken therein that could give rise to the accuracy-related penalties of Section 6662 or Section 6662A of the Code or to a similar penalty under the legal requirements of any other taxing jurisdiction, and have otherwise properly disclosed to the appropriate Governmental Body all positions or transactions relating to Taxes that are required to be disclosed under the legal requirements of any jurisdiction to which Sellers are subject. No Seller, nor any of their respective Affiliates, has entered into any agreements (including any closing agreements or Tax abatement or Tax credit agreements) with, or requested or received any Tax ruling from, any taxing authority relating to Taxes which would be binding on Buyer or its Affiliates. None of the Purchased Assets is owned (or deemed to be owned) by any Tax partnership (other than RGV), as defined in Section 761 of the Code and the related Treasury Regulations, or any analogous provision of applicable Tax law. No Seller is a party to or bound by any Tax indemnity, Tax sharing, Tax allocation or similar agreement or arrangement with respect to which the Buyer could otherwise incur any liability after the Closing. Sellers have heretofore made available to Buyer true, correct and complete copies of all of the Tax Returns of Sellers and RGV for the respective tax years ended December 31, 2012, December 31, 2013, December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015, and all Tax Returns filed since December 31, 2015, and no amendments or other changes have been made thereto since the date of such delivery. Sellers are in compliance with all terms and conditions of any Tax holiday, Tax exemption or other Tax reduction agreement or Order applicable to the Purchased Assets or the Business (each a “Tax Incentive”), and the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement will not have any adverse effect on the continued validity and effectiveness of any such Tax Incentive.
4.8    Title to Purchased Assets; Liens
(a)    Sellers currently have good and marketable title to all of the Purchased Assets owned by Sellers, and a valid leasehold or other possessory interest in all other Purchased Assets used, operated or occupied by Sellers or located on Sellers’ premises. All of the Purchased Assets will be free and clear of any Liens on or prior to the Closing Date.

time and manner so required, and shall pay all Transfer Taxes reflected on such documentation or Tax Returns and the non-Transfer Tax Filing Party shall reimburse the Transfer Tax Filing Party for 50% of such Transfer Taxes within 10 days of receipt of reasonable evidence of the amount of such Transfer Taxes.

(b)    Record Retention. Each Party shall retain the Books and Records relating to the Business in such Party’s respective possession or control for the greater of (i) six years following the Closing Date or (ii) such period of time as may be required by applicable law.

(c)    Other Agreements Providing For Exchange of Information.

6.11    Non-competition; Non-solicitation
(a)    Each Seller, each Seller Owner and each Hospitality Subsidiary (collectively, the “Restricted Parties,” and each a “Restricted Party”) agrees that for a period of five years commencing on the Closing Date, such Restricted Party shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and Subsidiaries not to, whether as a principal, agent, executive, employee, consultant, volunteer or otherwise, directly or indirectly, without the express written approval of Buyer, (i) become involved or otherwise engage in the Business or advise, own an interest in, manage, operate, control, lend money or render financial, technical or other assistance to or participate in, as an officer, executive, employee, partner, equityholder, member, agent, consultant, advisor or other similar capacity, any Competing Business; provided, that such Restricted Party may purchase securities issued by a Competing Business that is a public company, provided that the aggregate ownership of Owner and Owner’s Affiliates in such Competing Business is less than 2% of the outstanding publicly traded shares, (ii) solicit any Person who was during the 12-month period preceding the Closing a customer of the Business for any purposes competitive with the Business (including, without limitation, the license or sale of any technology, data, products or services which are competitive with or substitutes for, the technology, data, products or services offered for sale or under development by Sellers immediately prior to the Closing Date), or (iii) solicit, request, advise or knowingly induce any Person who was during the 12-month period preceding the Closing a customer, vendor (other than legal counsel and accountants), supplier, independent contractor or other business contact of Seller related to the Business or any Purchased Asset, or who is a current or potential (as of the Closing Date) customer, vendor, supplier, independent contractor or other business contact of Sellers related to the Business or any Purchased Asset to cancel, curtail or otherwise adversely change its relationship with Buyer as owner of the Business. Each Restricted Party shall ensure that its activities and the activities of its Affiliates pursuant to and permitted by any other agreement between the parties do not violate the covenants and agreements of such Restricted Party in this Section 6.11.
(b)    Each Restricted Party agrees that for a period of five years commencing on the Closing Date, such Restricted Party shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and Subsidiaries not to, hire or attempt to hire any Transferred Employee or solicit, induce, recruit or encourage (or attempt to solicit, induce, recruit or encourage) any Transferred Employee to leave or terminate their employment with a Buyer Party or any of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall not be a breach of this paragraph for a Restricted Party to (i) solicit (but not hire) Transferred Employees who respond to general advertisements in newspapers and/or other media of general circulation (including advertisements posted on the Internet), job fairs or other similar general solicitation, so long as they are not specifically directed towards such Transferred Employees or (ii) solicit or hire any Transferred Employee whose employment with all Buyer Parties and all of their Subsidiaries has been terminated for at least 18 months.
(c)    Each Restricted Party expressly represents and warrants to the Buyer Parties that it is incurring the obligations of the covenants in this Section 6.11 as an inducement to the Buyer Parties to enter into this Agreement and as an essential element of the Buyer Parties’ agreement to acquire the Purchased Assets and pay the Purchase Price for the Purchased Assets, and the Buyer Parties would not have done so but for the agreement by each Restricted Party to comply with the terms and provisions hereof.
(d)    Each Restricted Party understands and acknowledges that the Buyer Parties have made substantial investments to acquire the Purchased Assets, including business interests, goodwill and confidential information. Each Restricted Party agrees that such investments are worthy of protection, and that the Buyer Parties’ need for the protection afforded by this Section 6.11 is greater than any hardship the Restricted Parties might experience by complying with its terms.
(e)    The Buyer Parties and Restricted Parties agree that the limitations as to time, geographic area and scope of activity to be restrained, as applicable, contained in this Agreement are fair and reasonable and are

40




not greater than necessary to protect the confidential information and/or the goodwill or other legitimate business interests of the Buyer Parties. However, if at any time any of the provisions of this Section 6.11 shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to duration, area, scope of activity or otherwise, then this Section 6.11 shall be considered divisible (with the other provisions to remain in full force and effect) and the invalid or unenforceable provisions shall become and be deemed to be immediately amended to include only such time, area, scope of activity and other restrictions, as shall be determined to be reasonable and enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over the matter, and the Seller expressly agrees that this Agreement, as so amended, shall be valid and binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included herein.
6.12    Name Change. Within 10 days after the Closing Date, Sellers shall, or shall cause their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable, to, file all documents, records, and notices with, and provide all required information to all applicable Governmental Bodies to effect a change in the name(s) of The Rainmaker Group - Rent Jungle LLC, The Rainmaker Group Real Estate, LLC and The Rainmaker Group Data, LLC (the “Name Change”) from “The Rainmaker Group - Rent Jungle LLC,” “The Rainmaker Group Real Estate, LLC” and “The Rainmaker Group Data, LLC” to names (i) not similar to “The Rainmaker Group - Rent Jungle LLC,” “The Rainmaker Group Real Estate, LLC” and “The Rainmaker Group Data, LLC,” and (ii) that creates no association with the Business or the business of the Business.
6.13    Continued Existence. Each of RGH and RGV covenants that until the three-year anniversary of the Closing Date, such Seller shall not liquidate, wind up or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation or dissolution). Until the three-year anniversary of the Closing Date, none of RRJ, RGRE or RGD or any Hospitality Subsidiary shall, and each of RGH and RGV shall cause each such entity not to, liquidate, wind-up or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation or dissolution) or sell all or substantially all of its assets to an unaffiliated third party or cease to be a subsidiary of RGV; provided, however, that the restriction set forth in this sentence shall not apply so long as RGH has and maintains cash on hand or other sources of available funds in the aggregate equal to or greater than $10,000,000 during such three-year period.
6.14    Seller Transaction Expenses. No later than two business days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall provide the Buyer Parties with a written instruction letter setting forth, with respect to Sellers’ Indebtedness and all Seller Transaction Expenses or other amounts that Sellers request to be funded out of the Closing Cash Consideration at the Closing in accordance with Section 2.6(a): (i) the identity of each Person that is to be paid with respect thereto, (ii) the amount owed or to be owed to each such Person, and (iii) the bank account and wire transfer information for each such Person.

6.16    Business Confidential Information.
(a)    The Seller Parties hereby acknowledge that the Buyer Parties or the Business may be irreparably damaged if any Business Confidential Information possessed by any Seller Party were disclosed to or used by any Person engaged in competition with the Buyer Parties or the Business. From and after the date hereof, each Seller Party covenants and agrees that it will not, and will not permit its Affiliates to, and that it will use reasonable efforts to cause its representatives and agents not to, use or disclose any such Business Confidential Information without the prior written consent of Parent, except to attorneys, accountants and authorized representatives of such Seller Party, unless expressly permitted hereunder. If any Seller Party or one or more of its Affiliates is requested or required by any Governmental Entity to disclose any of such Business Confidential Information, then to the extent legally permissible such Seller Party will provide Parent with prompt written notice

41




of such request or requirement. Parent shall then either seek appropriate protective relief from all or part of such request or requirement or waive the applicable Seller Party’s or such Affiliate’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.16 with respect to all or part of such request or requirement. Each Seller Party will reasonably cooperate in good faith with Parent in attempting to obtain any reasonable protective relief that Parent chooses to seek. If, after Parent has had a reasonable opportunity to obtain such relief, Parent fails to obtain such relief, then such Seller Party or its Affiliate may disclose only that portion of such Business Confidential Information which its legal counsel advises it is compelled to disclose.
(b)    The obligations of the Buyer Parties pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement in respect of Business Confidential Information shall terminate as of the Closing.

shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed amended to delete therefrom the portion thus adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such deletion to apply only with respect to the operation of such provision in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Section 6.17 as to any Releasing Party shall not affect or limit the validity or enforceability of this Section 6.17 to any other Releasing Party.

(g)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Releasing Party covenants, agrees and promises that he, she or it will not file any legal claim or action asserting any such claims and, that if such a claim is brought on such Releasing Party’s behalf or for such Releasing Party’s benefit in or by any court or administrative agency, such Releasing Party hereby waives and agrees not to take any award or money or other damages as a result of such claim.

7.4    Reliance. No Party may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in this Article 7 to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such Party’s failure to perform or comply with the covenants of such Party set forth in this Agreement.

ARTICLE 8
TERMINATION
8.1    Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated, and the transactions contemplated herein may be abandoned, at any time prior to the Closing:
(a)    by mutual written consent of the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers and Seller Owners) and Parent (on behalf of itself and the Buyer Parties);
(b)    by either Parent (on behalf of itself and the Buyer Parties) or the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers and Seller Owners) if any Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final, non-appealable order, decree, judgment, injunction or ruling or taken any other action enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein;
(c)    either Parent (on behalf of itself and the Buyer Parties) or the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers and Seller Owners) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before May 31, 2017 (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that the Termination Date may be extended for a period not to exceed 90 days by either party by written notice to the other party if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the Termination Date as a result of the condition set forth in Section 7.1(b)(ii) failing to have been satisfied; provided further, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(c) shall not be available to any Party if the breach or failure to perform by such Party of its obligations under this Agreement, or the failure to act in good faith, is the

46




principal cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the transactions contemplated herein to be consummated on or before such date;
(d)    by Parent (on behalf of itself and the Buyer Parties) in the event of a material breach or failure to perform by any Seller of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein, or if a representation or warranty of any Seller shall have become untrue, which situation in either case, (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2, and (ii) cannot be cured by the Termination Date; or
(e)    by the Representative (on behalf of the Sellers and Seller Owners) in the event of a material breach or failure to perform by either Buyer Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein, or if a representation or warranty of either Buyer Party shall have become untrue, which situation in either case, (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3, and (ii) cannot be cured by the Termination Date.
8.2    Effects of Termination.  In the event of a termination of this Agreement by either Parent (on behalf of itself and the Buyer Parties) or Sellers as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall immediately become null and void, except that this Section 8.2 (Effects of Termination), Article 10 (The Representative), Section 11.3 (Expenses), Section 11.10 (Governing Law) and Section 11.11 (Resolution of Disputes); and all other obligations of the Parties specifically intended to be performed after the termination of this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any Party for any liability for any breach of this Agreement prior to its termination.

ARTICLE 9
INDEMNIFICATION
9.1    Indemnification.  Subject to the provisions of this Article 9, from and after the Closing, each of the Indemnifying Parties, jointly and severally, shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Indemnified Losses. The Representative shall act on behalf of the Seller Parties and the Hospitality Subsidiaries, and the Buyer Parties are hereby authorized to rely on determinations or communications by the Representative on behalf of the Seller Parties, in connection with all indemnification matters.
9.2    Defense of Third Party Claims
(a)    If any third party notifies any Indemnified Party with respect to any matter (a “Third-Party Action”) that may give rise to a claim for indemnification against any Indemnifying Party under this Article 9, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Representative thereof in writing (the “Third-Party Claim Notice”); provided, that no failure or delay on the part of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Representative shall limit any of the obligations of the Indemnifying Parties under this Article 9, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Parties have been materially prejudiced thereby. The Third-Party Claim Notice shall include a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of the claim and, if ascertainable, the amount of the claim. Except with respect to any Special Claim, the Indemnifying Parties shall have the right (by notifying the Indemnified Party in writing of its intent within 20 days after receipt of the Third-Party Claim Notice) but not the obligation to control the defense of any Third-Party Action, and all reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnifying Party’s counsel shall be borne by the Indemnifying Parties. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ counsel separate from counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party in any such action and to participate in (but not control) the defense of such action, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel and participation shall be at the Indemnifying Parties’ expense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such Third-Party Action, the Indemnifying Party will select counsel to conduct the defense of such claim or proceeding, will take all steps necessary in the defense or settlement thereof and will at all times diligently and promptly pursue the resolution thereof. If the Third-Party Action is a Special Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such Third-Party Action or proceeding resulting therefrom in accordance with the terms of this Article 9, the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim or proceeding, and shall be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party for such reasonable costs and expenses, in the manner the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate, including settling such claim or proceeding on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate.

47




(b)    All Parties to this Agreement shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of such Third Party Action and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and shall attend such conferences, discovery proceedings and trials as may be reasonably requested in connection with such Third-Party Action; provided, that no Party shall be required to grant access or furnish information to the extent that such information is subject to an attorney/client or attorney work product privilege; and provided further, that a Party and/or its counsel shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to enter into such joint defense agreements or other arrangements, as appropriate, so as to allow for such disclosure in a manner that does not result in the loss of attorney/client or attorney work product privilege. Each Party shall act in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner in addressing any adverse consequences that may result in the basis for an indemnifiable claim.
(c)    If the Indemnifying Party assumed the defense of any claim or proceeding in accordance with this Section 9.2, the Indemnifying Party will be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such claim or proceeding, with the prior written consent of each relevant Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrent with the effectiveness thereof; provided further, that the Indemnifying Party is not authorized to encumber any of the assets of any Indemnified Party or to agree to any restriction that would apply to any Indemnified Party or to its conduct of business; and provided further, that a condition to any such settlement is a complete release of each relevant Indemnified Party and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents with respect to the claim made, including any reasonably foreseeable collateral consequences thereof.
9.3    Direct Claims.  In any case in which an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder which is not subject to Section 9.2, the Indemnified Party will notify the Representative in writing of any Indemnified Losses which such Indemnified Party claims are subject to indemnification under the terms hereof. Such notification must state in reasonable detail, to the extent such information is reasonably available, the nature, amount and circumstances, and be accompanied by any other documentation or information reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party to evaluate the claim. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 9, if the Representative does not notify the Indemnified Party in writing within 30 days after receipt of the written notification that the Representative disputes all or any portion of such claim, the amount of such undisputed claim shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Parties hereunder. In case an objection is made in writing, the Indemnified Party shall have 30 days to respond in a written statement to the objection. If the Indemnified Party so responds, or the time to respond has expired, and there remains a dispute as to any claim, the Indemnified Party and the Representative shall attempt in good faith for 30 days to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each such claim. If the Indemnified Party and the Representative should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement and the agreed upon dollar amount of liability for such claim of the Indemnifying Parties against whom the claim is made shall be prepared and signed by (or on behalf of) the Parties. If the Parties do not agree, each of the Indemnified Party and the Representative may take such actions and assert such rights, remedies and defenses as may then be available to it under the terms of this Agreement.
9.4    No Circular Recovery.  Representative hereby agrees that it will not, and no Indemnifying Party shall, make any claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses against Parent or Buyer by reason of the fact that such Indemnifying Party was a controlling person, director, officer, manager, member, stockholder, employee, agent or representative of Seller or was serving as such for another Person at the request of Seller (whether such claim is pursuant to any statute, Governing Document, contractual obligation or otherwise) with respect to any claim brought by an Indemnified Party in accordance with this Agreement.
9.5    Release. Effective as of the Closing, the Representative, on behalf of himself and each Indemnifying Party, expressly waives and releases any and all right of subrogation, contribution, advancement, indemnification or other claim against Parent or Buyer other than such rights as are expressly provided in this Agreement.
9.6    Procedures for Claims; Payment of Holdback Cash Consideration
(a)    Claims. Parent shall be entitled to reduce the Holdback Cash Consideration by the amount necessary to satisfy and pay the amount of any claim with respect to which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article 9.

48




(b)    Distributions. The Holdback Cash Consideration shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.6(c) herein.
9.7    Limits on Liability.
(a)    The Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to be indemnified for any Indemnified Representation Losses unless and until the aggregate amount of all Indemnified Losses exceeds $1,500,000 (the “Threshold”), and then only to the extent in excess of the Threshold; provided, however, that this Section 9.7(a) shall not apply to (i) Fundamental Claims or (ii) claims in connection with, based upon, resulting from, attributable to, related to, or arising out of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct (although any Losses incurred relating to (i) and (ii) shall count towards the Threshold).
(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, there shall be no limit on the Indemnifying Parties’ liability for claims in connection with, based upon, resulting from, attributable to, related to, or arising out of (i) Liabilities for any legal proceedings based on facts or circumstances that occurred prior to the Closing, (ii) any Excluded Liability, (iii) the ownership, control or operation of the Purchased Assets or the Business prior to the Closing, (iv) any breach of covenant by any Seller Party, any Hospitality Subsidiary or the Representative, or (v) fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach.
(c)    Any claim by an Indemnified Party shall be limited such that no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to duplicate recovery with respect to any Losses that result from the breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.
(d)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all references in this Agreement and the Exhibits and Schedules hereto to “material,” “material respects” and “Material Adverse Effect” (and similar materiality qualifications) shall be disregarded for purposes of determining (i) whether there has been a breach or failure of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement and (ii) the amount of any Indemnified Loss that is the subject of indemnification hereunder.
9.8    Exclusive Remedy.  Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, should the Closing occur, the indemnification provisions of this Article 9 and the adjustments set forth in Article 2 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Buyer Parties against the Seller Parties with respect to any breach or inaccuracy, or alleged breach or inaccuracy, of any representation, warranty, covenant or other obligation of Seller Parties under this Agreement, except for (i) claims in connection with, based upon, resulting from, attributable to, related to, or arising out of (A) Liabilities for any legal proceedings based on facts or circumstances that occurred prior to the Closing, (B) any Excluded Liability, (C) the ownership, control or operation of the Purchased Assets or the Business prior to the Closing, (D) any breach of covenant by any Seller Party, any Hospitality Subsidiary or Representative, or (E) fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach, and (ii) injunctive relief or specific performance and other equitable remedies.
9.9    Acknowledgement of Representative.  The parties acknowledge and agree that any Indemnified Party may deal directly with the Representative with respect to an indemnification claim and the Indemnifying Parties will be bound by any action or agreement of the Representative made on their behalf.

ARTICLE 11
MISCELLANEOUS
11.1    Survival of Representations, Warranties, and Covenants. Regardless of any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any Party hereto or of any information any Party may have in respect thereof, each of the representations and warranties made in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement will survive the Closing as provided below, and any claim for indemnification with respect thereto must be brought within the applicable limitations period listed below:

51




(c)    all other claims for Indemnified Representation Losses must be brought on or before the three-year anniversary of the Closing Date.
Any covenant or agreement to be performed after the Closing shall survive the Closing. Following the date of termination of a representation or warranty, no claim for indemnification may be made for breach or inaccuracy of such representation or warranty, but no such termination will affect any claim for a breach of a representation or warranty that was asserted in writing pursuant to Article 9 before the date of the termination of such representation or warranty.
11.2    No Wavier Relating to Certain Claims.  The liability of any Party under Article 9 will be in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other liability that such Party may have at law or equity based on fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach.

11.3    Expenses.  Except as expressly set forth herein otherwise, each Party will bear its own fees and expenses incurred in connection with, relating to or arising out of the evaluation, negotiation, preparation for, and consummation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein, including all fees and expenses of agents, representatives, counsel and accountants, and any such expenses incurred by the Sellers that have not otherwise been paid or satisfied by Sellers prior to Closing (“Seller Transaction Expenses”) shall be paid by Sellers prior to or at Closing and Sellers shall pay the Seller Transaction Expenses as incurred or when due after Closing; provided, however, that the filing and other fees incurred in connection with filings under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws shall be paid one-half by Sellers and one-half by Parent. In the event of termination of this Agreement, the obligation of each Party to pay its own expenses will be subject to any rights of such Party arising from a breach of this Agreement by another Party.
11.4    Publicity.  Except for statements made or press releases issued (a) pursuant to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; (b) pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market; or (c) as otherwise required by law, none of the Seller Parties, on the one hand, or the Buyer Parties, on the other, will issue any press release or otherwise make any public statements with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein without the express prior written approval of Parent and the Representative.

11.6    Binding Effect; Assignment.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights,

53




interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of all other Parties. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be null and void; provided, however, that upon notice to Sellers (or, following the Closing, to the Representative), any of the Buyer Parties may assign or delegate any or all of their rights or obligations under this Agreement to any Affiliate thereof so long as such assignment or delegation does not relieve the assigning or delegating party from its obligations under this Agreement; and provided, further, that the Buyer Parties may assign their respective rights under this Agreement to their lenders as collateral security for their obligations under any of their secured debt financing arrangements.
11.7    Third Party Beneficiaries.  None of the provisions of this Agreement or any document contemplated in this Agreement is intended to grant any right or benefit to any Person that is not a party to this Agreement; provided, that the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to enforce as third party beneficiaries the indemnification rights set forth in Article 9 as if they were a party hereto.

11.9    Waiver.  The rights and remedies of the Parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by any Party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Any failure of a Party to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Agreement may be waived only if set forth in a written instrument signed by the Party or Parties to be bound by such waiver (including, if such waiver is after the Closing, the third party beneficiaries set forth in Section 11.7), but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any other failure.
11.10    Governing Law.  THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY MATTER OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE LAWS OR RULES OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE RELATING TO CONFLICT OF LAWS.

(a)    No Party shall institute a proceeding in any court or administrative agency to resolve a dispute between the Parties arising out of or related to this Agreement before that Party has sought to resolve the dispute through direct negotiation with the other Party.
(b)    If the dispute is not resolved within three weeks after a demand for direct negotiation, the Parties shall attempt to resolve the dispute through mediation in Denver, Colorado, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its commercial mediation rules and procedures then in effect.
(c)    If the mediator is unable to facilitate a settlement of the dispute within a reasonable period of time, as determined by the mediator, the mediator shall issue a written statement to the Parties to that effect and the aggrieved Party may then seek relief in the state or federal courts located in Denver, Colorado.
(d)    Each Party consents to the exclusive personal and subject matter jurisdiction of the mediation and arbitration proceedings as provided in this Section 11.11 and, as provided in Section 11.11(c), the state and federal courts located in Denver, Colorado, and waives any defense based upon forum non conveniens or lack of personal or subject matter jurisdiction.
(e)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, including this Section 11.11, each Party shall have the right to at any time apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for preliminary injunctive relief.
11.12    Severability.  In the event that any provision in this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be in any way impaired, and the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision shall be fully severed from this Agreement and there

54




shall be automatically added a replacement provision as similar in terms and intent to such severed provision as may be legal, valid and enforceable.
11.13    Headings. The article and section headings contained in this Agreement are solely for the purpose of reference, are not part of this Agreement and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
11.14    Construction and Certain Definitions.
(a)    Each Party to this Agreement and its counsel have reviewed and participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. The normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting Party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or of any amendments, Schedules or Exhibits to this Agreement.

(h)    The phrase “date of this Agreement” and similar terms shall mean the date set forth in the introductory clause of this Agreement.
