INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of May 10, 2016, by and among FP Holdings, L.P., a Nevada limited partnership (the “Company”), FP VoteCo, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“VoteCo”) and sole member of Fiesta ParentCo, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“GP”), FP ParentCo, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Parent” and, together with VoteCo, the “Sellers”), and Station Casinos LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Buyer”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in Section 9.1 hereof.
WHEREAS, GP is the sole general partner of the Company (the “GP Interest”);
WHEREAS, the Company has issued and outstanding 1,000 Class A Non-Voting LP Interests, which units represent 100% of the limited partnership interests in the Company (the “Class A Units”);
WHEREAS, VoteCo is the sole member and record and beneficial owner of 100% of the membership interest of GP (such membership interests, the “Purchased GP Interests”);
WHEREAS, Parent is (i) the record and beneficial owner of 990 Class A Units (the “Purchased Company Interests”) and (ii) the sole member and record and beneficial owner of 100% of the membership interest of FP Holdco L.L.C. (“FP C-Corp”), a Delaware limited liability company that has elected to be taxed as a corporation (such membership interests, the “Purchased FP C-Corp Interests,” and together with the Purchased GP Interests and the Purchased Company Interests, the “Purchased Interests”);
WHEREAS, FP C-Corp is the record and beneficial owner of 10 Class A Units of the Company;
WHEREAS, the Company is the record and beneficial owner of 100% of the outstanding equity interests of each of the entities listed on Schedule II hereto (collectively, the “Company Subsidiaries,” and each, a “Company Subsidiary”);
WHEREAS, the Company, together with certain of the Company Subsidiaries, owns and operates the Palms Casino Resort (the “Property”); and
WHEREAS, Buyer desires to purchase from the Sellers, and the Sellers desire to sell to Buyer, all of the Purchased Interests, on the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual representations, warranties and covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, agree as follows:
Article I

PURCHASE AND SALE OF PURCHASED INTERESTS
Section 1.1    Purchase and Sale of Purchased Interests
.
(a)    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, each Seller shall sell, transfer and deliver to Buyer free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions





under applicable securities Laws and Gaming Laws), and Buyer shall purchase from each of the Sellers, the Purchased Interests set forth opposite each such Seller’s name on Schedule I, for an aggregate purchase price of three hundred twelve million five hundred thousand Dollars ($312,500,000) (the “Base Purchase Price”), payable in accordance with Section 1.6 and subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 1.7.
(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, immediately prior to the Closing, the Company shall convey, transfer and assign to Sellers (or their designee) and Sellers (or their designee) shall obtain the right, title and interest in and to each and all of the assets of the Company listed on Schedule 1.1(b) attached hereto (the “Excluded Assets”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the attempted or actual conveyance, assignment or transfer to Sellers (or their designee) of any Excluded Assets is non-assignable or non-transferrable, by its terms, without the consent of a third party (each, a “Non-Assignable Excluded Asset”), then Sellers and Buyer shall each use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the authorization, approval, consent or waiver of such other party to the applicable conveyance, transfer or assignment of any such Non-Assignable Excluded Asset. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the failure to obtain a consent with respect to a Non-Assignable Excluded Asset delay or otherwise impede the Closing, but the Closing shall not constitute the sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer or delivery of any such Non-Assignable Excluded Asset, and this Agreement shall not constitute a conveyance, assignment, transfer or delivery of any such Non-Assignable Excluded Asset unless and until such authorization, approval, consent or waiver is obtained. The parties shall enter into a commercially reasonable arrangement to provide that Sellers shall receive the interest of the Company in the benefits and obligations under such Non-Assignable Excluded Asset, and Sellers shall be liable to the Company in a fashion equivalent to what Sellers’ Liabilities would be under the Non-Assignable Excluded Asset if it were assigned, transferred or conveyed, until such time as such third party authorization, approval, consent or waiver shall have been obtained, and such arrangement shall include performance by the Company as an agent of Sellers to the extent commercially reasonable.
Section 1.2    Deposit
. No later than one Business Day following the date hereof, Buyer shall deposit twenty million Dollars ($20,000,000) (such amount, together with any amount deposited pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 1.2, the “Deposit”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Escrow Agent”) pursuant to an escrow agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Deposit Escrow Agreement”) executed and delivered by the Sellers, Buyer and the Escrow Agent. Upon the Closing, (i) the Deposit shall be paid to the Sellers, and credited against the Purchase Price, (ii) the interest accrued on the Deposit shall be paid to Buyer, and (iii) the Deposit and the accrued interest thereon shall be promptly released by the Escrow Agent to the Sellers and Buyer, respectively, pursuant to this Section 1.2 and the terms of the Deposit Escrow Agreement. Upon the termination of this Agreement, the Deposit and the interest accrued thereon shall be payable pursuant to Section 7.2(c) hereof, and thereafter shall be promptly released by the Escrow Agent to Buyer or the Sellers, as applicable, pursuant to such Section 7.2(c) hereof and the terms of the Deposit Escrow Agreement. In the event that Buyer extends the Outside Date pursuant to Section 7.1(b), Buyer shall deposit five million Dollars ($5,000,000) with the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Deposit Escrow Agreement promptly, and in any event within three (3) Business Days after each such extension (and if such Deposit is not made within such period, such extension shall be null and void).
Section 1.3    Purchase Price
. As used herein, the aggregate purchase price for the Purchased Interests (the “Purchase Price”), shall be an amount equal to (a) the Base Purchase Price, plus (b) the Cash, plus or minus (as applicable) (c) the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment, minus (d) the Selling Expenses, minus (e) the Closing Escrow Funds, minus, (f) the Specified Matter Escrow Funds, minus (g) the Payoff Amount, minus (h) the Pension





Liability, minus (i) all Indebtedness outstanding at Closing, other than the Payoff Amount. Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price and the other payments contemplated hereby as provided in Section 1.6(a).
Section 1.4    Allocation of Purchase Price
. Following the Closing, Buyer intends to obtain an independent third-party appraisal of the Purchased Companies. Within thirty (30) Business Days after such appraisal has been finalized, Buyer shall deliver to the Sellers an allocation of the Purchase Price (as determined for federal income tax purposes, including any liabilities of the Purchased Companies (other than FP C-Corp) that are required to be treated as part of the Purchase Price for federal income tax purposes) first between the Purchased FP C-Corp Interests and the other Purchased Interests, and then an allocation of the portion allocated to such other Purchased Interests among the assets of the Purchased Companies (other than FP C-Corp) pursuant to Section 755 of the Code, in each case consistently with such appraisal (the “Proposed Allocation”). The Sellers shall accept and agree to the Proposed Allocation unless the Sellers, acting in good faith, object to the Proposed Allocation, in which case the Sellers shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of the Proposed Allocation, deliver written notice to Buyer of such objection. Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the items in the Proposed Allocation to which the Sellers object and the basis for such objection. Following delivery of such notice, Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate in good faith to reach a mutually acceptable agreement regarding such disputed items. In the event that the parties cannot mutually agree upon a resolution with respect to such disputed items within fifteen (15) Business Days of Buyer’s receipt of such notice, each party shall be entitled to take its own position in any Tax Return, Tax proceeding or audit. If there is an agreed-upon allocation (the “Purchase Price Allocation”), Buyer and the Sellers agree to (a) be bound by the Purchase Price Allocation, (b) act in accordance with the Purchase Price Allocation in the filing of all Tax Returns for the taxable year that includes the Closing Date and in the course of any Tax audit, Tax examination or Tax litigation relating thereto, and (c) take no position and cause their Affiliates to take no position inconsistent with the Purchase Price Allocation for Tax purposes, in the case of each of clauses (a) through (c) unless otherwise required by a change in applicable Law or pursuant to the good faith resolution of a Tax contest. The Sellers and Buyer shall make appropriate adjustments to the Purchase Price Allocation, if any, to reflect any adjustments to the Purchase Price.
Section 1.5    Time and Place of Closing
. Unless this Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to Article VII hereof, the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the purchase and sale of the Purchased Interests (the “Closing”), shall take place not later than 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time on the fifth Business Day following satisfaction or waiver of all the conditions set forth in Article VI hereof (other than those conditions intended to be satisfied or waived at the Closing), at the Property, unless another time or place shall be agreed to by the parties (the “Closing Date”).
Section 1.6    Closing Transactions.
(a)    Payments at Closing. The following payments shall be made by Buyer immediately prior to Closing:
(i)    Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price (less the Deposit) to the Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated in writing by the Sellers at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.
(ii)    Buyer shall remit the Closing Escrow Funds by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated in the Closing Escrow Agreement.

(v)    Buyer shall pay to the applicable Persons payment of the Selling Expenses, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by such Persons in the invoices delivered by the Sellers to Buyer pursuant to Section 1.6(b)(vi).
(b)    Deliveries at Closing. The following documents will be executed and delivered by Buyer and the Sellers, as applicable, at or prior to the Closing:

(ii)    Buyer and the Sellers shall execute, if applicable, the Specified Matter Escrow Agreement(s).
(iii)    Buyer shall deliver to the Sellers the certificates required by Sections 6.3(a) and (b) hereof.
(iv)    The Sellers shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Buyer the certificates required by Sections 6.2(a) and (b) hereof.
(v)    Buyer shall deliver to the Sellers evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Sellers that Buyer has obtained all Gaming Approvals required to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.
(vi)    The Sellers shall deliver to Buyer invoices in respect of the Selling Expenses.
(vii)    The Sellers shall have delivered or cause to be delivered the Payoff Letter as contemplated by Section 5.12(a) and releases of all Liens and other security interests securing the Indebtedness in each case as described in the Payoff Letter.
(viii)    Each Seller shall deliver to Buyer a certification of its status as a non-foreign person in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “FIRPTA Certificate”) in accordance and compliance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b)(2).
(ix)    Each Seller shall have executed and delivered an assignment agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (each, an “Assignment Agreement”) assigning such Seller’s interest in the Purchased Interests to Buyer free and clear of all Encumbrances.
(x)    Each of the Sellers and Buyer shall deliver evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Title Company regarding due organization and the due authorization of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to the extent required by the Title Company.
(xi)    The Sellers shall deliver such customary affidavits as the Title Company may reasonably require in order to issue the Title Policy in accordance with the terms hereof.





(xii)    Sellers shall deliver evidence of the resignation or removal, effective as of the Closing Date, of each director of the Company, unless otherwise designated by Buyer in advance no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.
(xiii)    The Sellers and Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint written instruction instructing the Escrow Agent to release (1) the Deposit to the Sellers and (2) the interest accrued on the Deposit to Buyer, in each case in accordance with the Deposit Escrow Agreement.
(c)    Transfer of Possession. To the extent required by applicable Gaming Laws or Gaming Authorities, the Sellers and Buyer shall prepare a detailed closing memorandum and submit it to the applicable Gaming Authorities with sufficient time to allow their review and approval and completion of the items set forth in such closing memorandum prior to the Closing Date.
Section 1.7    Purchase Price Adjustments.
(a)    Not more than seven (7) Business Days nor less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) showing the Sellers’ good faith estimate of the Estimated Working Capital, including the calculation thereof in reasonable detail calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and reasonable back-up documentation regarding the calculation of Estimated Working Capital. Buyer and its Representatives will be entitled to reasonable access during normal business hours to the relevant records, personnel and working papers of the Companies and Sellers to aid in its review of the Estimated Closing Statement and the calculation of the Estimated Closing Working Capital. Sellers and Buyers shall work together in good faith to agree on the Estimated Closing Working Capital prior to the Closing; provided, however, that the failure to agree on such amounts shall not delay or otherwise prevent the Closing and, to the extent of any remaining dispute, Sellers’ calculation of the Estimated Closing Working Capital shall prevail. If (A) the Estimated Working Capital exceeds the Target Working Capital, then the Purchase Price payable at Closing shall be increased by an amount equal to such difference or (B) the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Target Working Capital, then the Purchase Price payable at Closing shall be decreased by an amount equal to such difference (such excess or deficiency, as the case may be, the “Estimated Working Capital Adjustment”).
(b)    No more than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer will prepare (or cause to be prepared) and deliver to the Sellers a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”) showing Buyer’s calculation of Closing Working Capital, including the calculation thereof in reasonable detail calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Buyer shall promptly provide to the Sellers such backup or supporting data relating to the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement and the calculation of Closing Working Capital reflected thereon as the Sellers may reasonably request. Buyer shall also provide the Sellers and their respective Representatives with such reasonable access to the books, records and personnel of the Purchased Companies, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, as the Sellers may request for the purposes of evaluating the Post-Closing Statement and Buyer’s calculation of Closing Working Capital.
(c)    The Sellers shall, within the thirty (30) day period (the “Acceptance Period”) following receipt of such Post-Closing Statement, notify Buyer of its acceptance or non-acceptance (as the case may be) of the Post-Closing Statement and the calculation of Closing Working Capital reflected thereon. If no such notice is delivered to Buyer by the Sellers within the Acceptance Period, the Post-Closing Statement and the calculation of Closing Working Capital reflected thereon shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Sellers and shall be binding thereon for all purposes of this Agreement. If the Post-Closing Statement and the calculation of Closing Working Capital reflected thereon are accepted or deemed to have been accepted by the Sellers, then payment of any related amounts, as contemplated by this Section 1.7(c), shall be made pursuant to Section 1.7(e). If the Sellers give notice (a “Dispute Notice”) to Buyer within the Acceptance





Period that the Sellers do not agree with or otherwise do not accept the calculation of Closing Working Capital reflected on the Post-Closing Statement, the Sellers shall describe in such Dispute Notice the nature of any disagreement so asserted. Buyer and the Sellers shall endeavor in good faith to resolve all such disagreements within the thirty (30) day period (the “Negotiating Period”) following the delivery by the Sellers of such Dispute Notice.
(d)    If Buyer and the Sellers are unable to resolve any disagreements regarding the Post-Closing Statement and the calculations reflected thereon within the Negotiating Period, then all such disputes shall be promptly referred to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP or, if such firm declines to serve, then such other nationally recognized independent accounting firm as is mutually acceptable to Buyer and the Sellers (the “Neutral Accounting Firm”). The Neutral Accounting Firm shall be instructed only to resolve all outstanding disagreements relating to the Post-Closing Statement and the calculation of Closing Working Capital reflected thereon, and shall be instructed not to otherwise investigate such matters independently or introduce different judgments, accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies in connection therewith. The Neutral Accounting Firm shall investigate only those items that are in dispute and shall not assign a value to any item that is (A) greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either of Buyer or the Sellers or (B) lower than the lowest value for such item claimed by either of Buyer or the Sellers. The Neutral Accounting Firm’s determination shall be based only upon written submissions by Buyer and the Sellers, and not upon an independent review by the Neutral Accounting Firm. The parties shall instruct the Neutral Accounting Firm, acting as experts and not as arbitrators, to render its determination within thirty (30) Business Days of the referral of such matter thereto, and the determination of the Neutral Accounting Firm shall be final and binding upon Buyer and the Sellers for all purposes of this Agreement. Judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Neutral Accounting Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced. Neither Buyer nor the Sellers shall have any ex parte communications or meetings with the Neutral Accounting Firm without the prior consent of Buyer (in the case of the Sellers) or the Sellers (in the case of Buyer). The fees and expenses of the Neutral Accounting Firm shall be borne one-half by Buyer, on the one hand, and one-half by the Sellers, on the other hand. The fees and expenses of the Sellers and their respective Representatives incurred in connection with the Post-Closing Statement and any Dispute Notice shall be borne by each of the Sellers, and the fees and expenses of Buyer and its Representatives in connection with the Post-Closing Statement and any Dispute Notice shall be borne by Buyer.
(e)    Promptly following the final resolution of all disputes, if any, relating to the Post-Closing Statement calculations and amounts reflected thereon in accordance with this Section 1.7, but in no event more than five (5) Business Days thereafter, (A) if the finally determined Closing Working Capital exceeds the Estimated Working Capital (such amount, the “Actual Surplus”), then Buyer shall pay to the Sellers, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as may be designated by the Sellers to Buyer in writing, an amount equal to such Actual Surplus in accordance with Section 1.7(f), or (B) if the finally determined Closing Working Capital is less than the Estimated Working Capital (such amount, the “Actual Deficiency”), then Buyer and the Sellers shall deliver a written instruction to the Escrow Agent to pay to Buyer from the Working Capital Escrow Fund an amount equal to such Actual Deficiency in accordance with Section 1.7(f) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as may be designated by Buyer to the Sellers in writing.
(f)    In the event that the adjustments contemplated by Section 1.7(e) result in amounts owed by the Sellers to Buyer, then, in such event, such payments shall be satisfied solely by release to Buyer of such amounts from the Working Capital Escrow Fund in accordance with the Closing Escrow Agreement. In the event that the amounts owed by the Sellers pursuant to Section 1.7(e) exceed the amount of the Working Capital Escrow Fund, no further payment shall be owed by the Sellers. In the event that the adjustments





contemplated by Section 1.7(d) result in amounts owed by Buyer to the Sellers, such amount shall be paid by Buyer to the Sellers. Promptly following the final determination of the Closing Working Capital, and any payments made pursuant to Section 1.7(e), if there are any amounts remaining in the Working Capital Escrow Fund, then Buyer and the Sellers shall deliver a written instruction to the Escrow Agent to pay to the Sellers such remaining amounts by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as may be designated by the Sellers in writing.
Section 1.8    Withholding
. Buyer and the Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts payable under this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld under the Code and any other applicable Tax Laws. However, if Buyer or the Company intends to withhold any such amounts (other than amounts required to be withheld under the Code), Buyer shall promptly notify the Sellers of such intention and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such notice at least within thirty (30) days of the expected Closing Date. Furthermore, Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with the Sellers to reduce the amount of withholding Taxes, including by executing and filing any forms or certificates reasonably required to claim an available reduced rate of, or exemption from, withholding Taxes. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by Buyer or the Company, such deducted and withheld amounts (a) shall be remitted by Buyer or the Company to the applicable Governmental Entity within the time and in the manner required by applicable Law and (b) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.
Article II

The Company is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing in the jurisdiction in which the property owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 2.2    Authority; No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents.

Prior to Closing, the parties hereto shall use reasonable best efforts to schedule and attend any hearings or meetings with Governmental Entities as promptly as possible. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, each Party hereto shall keep the other Parties hereto reasonably informed with respect to such Party’s pursuit of Governmental Approvals.





(c)    Without limiting Section 5.4(a) or (b) hereof, if any administrative or judicial action or proceeding, including any proceeding by a private party, is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement as violative of any Law, each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate with each of the other parties hereto to, and will, contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, delays or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) use its respective reasonable best efforts to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under the HSR Act or any antitrust, competition or trade regulation Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to transaction contemplated by this Agreement so as to enable the Closing to occur as soon as reasonably possible (and in any event no later than the Outside Date). To the extent necessary in order to accomplish the foregoing, Buyer shall propose, negotiate, commit to and effect, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of, or prohibition or limitation on the ownership or operation by it or any of its Subsidiaries of any portion of the business, properties or assets of Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that Buyer shall not be required pursuant to this Section 5.4(c) to propose, commit to or effect any action that is not conditioned upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or that individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on Buyer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
(d)    From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, each party shall promptly notify all other parties hereto in writing of any pending or, to the knowledge of Buyer or the Sellers, as appropriate, threatened action, suit, arbitration or other proceeding or investigation by any Governmental Entity or any other Person (i) challenging or seeking damages in connection with the Closing of any transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) seeking to restrain or prohibit the consummation of the Closing.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Buyer and Sellers may make any public statement in response to questions by the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences or financial analysts conference calls, so long as any such statements are not inconsistent with previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made jointly by Buyer and Sellers or made by one party and reviewed by the other and do not reveal nonpublic information regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that Buyer may not name any direct or indirect equityholder of the Seller in any such public statement without the prior written consent of Sellers.
Section 5.6    Further Assurances and Actions.

Buyer shall prepare and file all Tax Returns relating to such Taxes.
(b)    All filing fees pursuant to the pre-merger notifications under the HSR Act shall be borne by Buyer.

The parties hereby agree, with respect to the VoteCo Indemnified Parties, (i) that the Purchased Companies are the indemnitors of first resort with respect to the matters subject to indemnification as described in Section 5.10(a) (i.e., their obligations to the VoteCo Indemnified Parties are primary and any obligation of the Fund Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the VoteCo Indemnified Parties are secondary), (ii) that the Purchased Companies shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the VoteCo Indemnified Parties (provided that the recipient of any such advance shall provide a customary undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification) and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement (or any other agreement between the Purchased Companies and the VoteCo Indemnified Parties), without regard to any rights the VoteCo Indemnified Parties may have against the Fund Indemnitors, and (iii) the parties irrevocably waive, relinquish and release the Fund Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Fund Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The parties further agree that no advancement or payment by the Fund Indemnitors on behalf of the VoteCo Indemnified Parties with respect to any claim for which the VoteCo Indemnified Parties have sought indemnification from the Purchased Companies shall affect the foregoing and the Fund Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the VoteCo Indemnified Parties against the Purchased Companies.
(d)    The provisions of this Section 5.10 shall survive Closing and are intended to be for the benefit of, and enforceable by, the Covered Persons (and, with respect to Section 5.10(c), the Fund Indemnitors), and their respective heirs and Representatives, and nothing herein shall affect any rights that





any such person may have under the Purchased Companies’ organizational documents, any contract or applicable Law.

The Sellers and the Company shall and shall cause their respective agents to promptly cease and cause to be terminated all discussions and negotiations, if any, which have taken place prior to the date hereof with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sellers or the Company shall notify Buyer in writing not later than the second (2nd) Business Day following receipt or notice of any effort, attempt or proposal by any person (other than Buyer or its Representatives) with respect to, or which would reasonably be likely to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal.
Section 5.12    Indebtedness.
(a)    At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company will deliver to Buyer a customary payoff letter or letters (collectively, the “Payoff Letter”) executed by the lenders of all Indebtedness set forth on Schedule 5.12(a) outstanding on the Closing Date, which letter will (i) set forth the total amount required to be paid at the Closing to satisfy in full the repayment of such outstanding Indebtedness of the Purchased Companies and, if any, all prepayment penalties, premiums and breakage costs that become payable upon such repayment (the “Payoff Amount”), (ii) provide for the release of all Liens and other security securing such Indebtedness including any guarantees thereof, upon receipt of the Payoff Amount and (iii) wire transfer instructions for paying the Payoff Amount.

by Buyer; provided that (i) the foregoing cooperation will not be required to the extent it would unreasonably interfere with the business or the other operations of any Purchased Company, (ii) no Purchased Company or any of its Affiliates will be required to pay any commitment or other similar fee or take any action that would subject it to any other liability in connection with any debt financing prior to the Closing or any other cost, expense or fee or agree to provide any indemnity in connection with any debt financing or any of the foregoing, (iii) if this Agreement is terminated for any reason, Buyer shall reimburse the Purchased Companies for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by any Purchased Company at the request of Buyer in connection with this Section 5.12, and (iv) no Purchased Company shall be required to pay any commitment or other similar fee or incur any other cost or expense (other than the payment of reasonable out-of-pocket costs, subject to reimbursement by Buyer pursuant to clause (iii)) that is not simultaneously reimbursed by Buyer in connection with any debt financing prior to the Closing. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that no Purchased Company nor any of its Affiliates or any of its directors, officers, employees, representatives and advisors (including legal, financial and accounting advisors) will have any responsibility for, or incur any liability to any Person under or in connection with, the arrangement of any debt financing that Buyer may raise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Prior to the Closing, any Purchased Company that owns a Seller Condo Unit shall convey and transfer to Sellers’ Designee (as defined on Section 5.13 of the Disclosure Schedules) all of its right, title and interest in and to each of the Seller Condo Units that such Purchased Company continues to own as of such date including the actions set forth on Section 5.13 of the Disclosure Schedules, all of which are expressly permitted hereunder (the “Seller Condo Unit Conveyance”). As of the Closing Date, the portion of the Owned Real Property consisting of any Condo Units shall only include the Hotel Unit (together with all interests appurtenant thereto), and for the avoidance of doubt, shall not in any event include any Residential Unit (as defined in the Condominium Declaration). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
(a)    Prior to Closing, the Sellers (or any Purchased Company that owns any Condo Unit) may make any reasonable changes to the Condominium Declaration and related documents as are necessary to ensure that following the Closing the Sellers’ Designee that obtains title in and to the Seller Condo Units shall have the ability to market and sell such Seller Condo Units to any other parties given that such designee will no longer own the Condo Units other than the Seller Condo Units, which changes shall be subject to the prior written approval of Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
(b)    At Closing, to the extent any Seller Condo Units have not been sold to a third party, Buyer and/or Purchased Company agrees that the Sellers (or, if applicable, Sellers shall cause Sellers’ Designee) to enter into a license agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to each of them, which license agreement shall, among other things, provide Sellers or Sellers’ Designee, as applicable, and/or its employees and agents with the following rights with respect to the Seller Condo Units: (i) reasonable access rights through such portion of the Hotel Unit as are necessary to access the Seller Condo Units for showing and other sales-related purposes, (ii) the right to locate signage solely relating to the sale of the Seller Condo Units in the lobby areas and other portions of the Hotel Unit, with the location and appearance of such signage subject to Hotel Unit Owner’s prior written approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and (iii) the right to operate a sales office within the Hotel Unit for the purpose of marketing and selling the Seller Condo Units in the location that exists at Closing, provided that the license





agreement shall provide that Sellers or Sellers’ Designee, as applicable, shall be required to pay rent with respect to such sales office, in an amount equal to market rates for similar sales offices in Clark County, Nevada, and that the term of the license of such space by Sellers or Sellers’ Designee, as applicable, shall not exceed six months following the Closing.
(c)    Buyer and/or Purchased Company will, at the reasonable request of Sellers and at Sellers’ expense, use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Sellers (or the Sellers’ Designee) in obtaining any sales related permits or licenses from local, state or federal governmental entities as may be necessary for the Sellers (or the Sellers’ Designee) and/or its employees or agents to sell the remaining Seller Condo Units.
