Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Buyer shall determine the strategy to be pursued for obtaining and leading any efforts to obtain all necessary actions or nonactions and approvals from any Governmental Authorities in connection with the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Purchase; provided, that the Buyer agrees to take into consideration the Seller’s reasonable views, suggestions and comments regarding such strategy and efforts.

(b)    Each Party agrees (i) to make (or cause its ultimate parent entities and any required Affiliate or Subsidiary to make), to the extent applicable, an appropriate initial filing pursuant to each applicable Gaming Law with respect to the Closing Buyer Gaming Approvals and Closing Seller Approvals within thirty (30) days following the date of this Agreement and (ii)

(ii)    avoid or eliminate any impediment under any Gaming Law or any other applicable Law, order or judgment that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority or any other Person with respect to the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing so as to enable the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing to occur as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event prior to the Outside Date), including implementing, contesting or resisting any litigation before any court or administrative tribunal seeking to restrain or enjoin the Transactions.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 8.06 shall be deemed to limit any obligation the Buyer may have to pay a Termination Fee pursuant to Section 10.03.

Upon execution of this Agreement, the Seller shall, and shall cause the Subsidiary Sellers and shall direct its and their respective Affiliates to, immediately cease any discussions, negotiations or communications with any Person with respect to any Acquisition Proposal and instruct to be returned or destroyed all nonpublic information provided by or on behalf of the Subsidiary Sellers to such Person; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.17 shall preclude the Seller or its Representatives from contacting any such Person solely for the purpose of complying with the provisions of the first clause of this sentence. The Seller and the Subsidiary Sellers shall promptly notify the Buyer upon its, or any of its Affiliates, receipt of any proposal, offer or indication of interest from any Person with respect to a potential Acquisition Proposal, which notice shall include the identity of the Person making such Acquisition Proposal.

Section 8.18    Rock Ohio Ventures LLC Recapitalization. The Seller shall, and cause each of its Affiliates to, take such actions as are necessary to cause the Rock Ohio Ventures LLC Recapitalization to be consummated at or prior to the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing.  

Section 8.19    Post-Closing Escrow. At the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing, the Buyer shall deposit with the Escrow Agent, pursuant to an escrow agreement consistent with the provisions of this Section 8.19 and in the form attached hereto as Exhibit V (the “Escrow Agreement”), a portion of the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Purchase Price consisting of cash in an amount equal to $5,250,000 (the “Original Escrowed Amount”), which may be reduced from time to time in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement to reflect any sums paid to the Buyer from time to time pursuant to this Section 8.19 (the “Escrowed Amount”). Each of the

representations and warranties set forth in Sections 7.01(a)(v), 7.01(a)(vi), 7.01(b), 7.01(c)(i)(z) solely as it relates to the Cooperative Agreement and the Declaration, 7.01(e)(ii)-(iii) and 7.01(l) shall be deemed “Surviving Representations” for purposes of this Section 8.19; provided, that, any breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 7.01(a)(vi) (other than Subsection 7.01(a)(vi)(i) and Subsection 7.01(a)(vi)(iv)) shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Section 8.19 if such breach would have occurred even if the Conveyed Properties had been conveyed directly to the Buyer (rather than conveyed to the Transfer Subs with the Transfer Sub Membership Interests transferred to the Buyer). Notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 11.14, the Surviving Representations shall survive the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date (the “Survival Period”); provided, that if, prior to the end of the Survival Period, the Buyer shall have asserted in writing a claim with respect to the particular Surviving Representation (a “Claim Notice”) and commenced a legal proceeding against the Seller within sixty (60) days of delivery of such Claim Notice alleging that the Seller is in breach of such Surviving Representation and that the Buyer has suffered damages as a result thereof, such claim shall continue beyond the end of the Survival Period. If the Parties agree, or a court of competent jurisdiction determines, that (a) the applicable Surviving Representation was breached as of the Closing Date and (b) the Buyer suffered actual damages (including reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses) by reason of such breach (“Surviving Representation Damages”), then the Buyer shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to such damages, but in no event in an amount greater than the then-remaining Escrowed Amount. Any Surviving Representation Damages shall be determined without duplication of recovery by the Buyer by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such loss constituting a breach of more than one (1) Surviving Representation. Except as set forth in Section 11.14, following the Survival Period, the Seller shall have no further liability with respect to the Surviving Representations and the Buyer shall look exclusively to the R&W Insurance Policy for any and all claims regarding any breaches of representations and warranties provided for in this Agreement, and there shall be no further requirement of the Seller to maintain all or any portion of the Escrowed Amount; provided, that if as of the expiration of the Survival Period, the Buyer shall have provided a Claim Notice to the Seller and commences a legal proceeding against the Seller within sixty (60) days of delivery of such Claim Notice alleging that the Seller is in breach of such Surviving Representation and that the Buyer has suffered damages as a result thereof, then the Escrow Agent shall retain, pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, cash in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount claimed by the Buyer in such writing and (ii) the then-remaining Escrowed Amount, pending resolution or settlement of such claim. Except as set forth in Section 11.14, the aggregate liability of the Seller to the Buyer in respect of all obligations for Surviving Representation Damages under this Section 8.19 shall not exceed the Original Escrowed Amount and the Buyer acknowledges and agrees that in no event shall the Seller have any obligation or liability in connection with any breach of the Surviving Representations in excess of the then-remaining Escrowed Amount, and in the event that the Original Escrowed Amount is paid to the Buyer on account of claims under this Section 8.19, then this Section 8.19 shall be of no further force or effect. The Parties agree to treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Section 8.19 as an adjustment to the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Purchase Price for all tax purposes unless otherwise required pursuant to applicable Law. This Section 8.19 shall survive the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing.

Section 8.20    MOU. The Parties agree that Buyer shall have no obligation whatsoever to make any payment under the MOU.

Section 8.21    Cooperative Agreement.

Section 323.11. Buyer and any successor to Buyer to the Cooperative Agreement shall include the covenants set forth in Section 5.4 of the Cooperative Agreement in any future instrument conveying title to the all or any portion of the Higbee Building encumbered by the Cooperative Agreement.

(b)    Higbee Transferor, Cleveland Transfer Sub and Buyer agree that the covenants and agreements provided in Section 2.5 of the Cooperative Agreement are covenants that run with the land (collectively, the “Section 2.5 Covenants”) and such covenants shall, for the Exemption Period (as defined in the Cooperative Agreement), in any event and without regard to technical classification or designation, legal or otherwise, be binding to the fullest extent permitted by law and equity for the benefit and favor of and enforceable by the City whether or not the Cooperative Agreement remains in effect and whether or not the Section 2.5 Covenants are included by Cleveland Transfer Sub or Buyer or any successor to Cleveland Transfer Sub or Buyer to the Cooperative Agreement in any subsequent deed to any future grantees or owners of all or any portion of the Higbee Building encumbered by the Cooperative Agreement.

(c)    To the extent permitted by law, each of Cleveland Transfer Sub and Buyer agrees, for its benefit and the benefit of its successors and assigns, that it shall not enter into a written undertaking to pay delinquent taxes in installments pursuant to the Revised Code (as defined in the Cooperative Agreement) including, but not limited to, Section 323.31 thereof, where the effect of such entry would be to preclude the commencement, continuation or resolution of foreclosure proceedings, or to otherwise delay the payment in full of any and all delinquent taxes, and Service Payments, if any, on the Higbee Building. Each of Cleveland Transfer Sub and Buyer agrees that it will include the foregoing covenant in any instrument that Cleveland Transfer Sub of Buyer, as applicable, executes and delivers to a subsequent grantee, conveying the fee of all or any portion of the Higbee Building encumbered by the Cooperative Agreement.

(d)    This Section 8.21 shall survive the Closing Date.

Section 8.22    Higbee REA. In the event that, at any time during the thirty (30) day period following the date of this Agreement, either Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, determines that there is any material inconsistency between the provisions of the Higbee REA, on the one hand,

and the rights and obligations of any tenant, as lessee of a portion of the Higbee Commercial Parcel, or JCC, as lessee of the Higbee Gaming Parcel, on the other hand, including rights as to common areas, then such party will provide notice to the other, whereupon the Parties agree to discuss in good faith potential modifications to the Higbee REA to reasonably address such inconsistencies; provided, however, that each Party shall have the right to approve or disapprove of any such amendments or modifications in its sole discretion.

(a)    By the mutual written consent of the Seller and the Buyer.

In the event that this Agreement is validly terminated by either the Seller or the Buyer as provided in Section 10.01, each Party will be relieved of its duties and obligations arising under this Agreement after the date of such termination and such termination will be without liability to the Buyer or the Seller; provided, that the agreements and obligations of the Parties set forth in Section 8.04, this Section 10.02, Section 10.03, Section 11.01 (to the extent that amounts have been incurred prior to the date of termination) and the other provisions of Article XI shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect; provided, further, that (subject, and without limitation to, Section 10.03(c)) nothing in this Section 10.02 relieves any Party of any liability for (x) Fraud or (y) any Willful Breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement occurring prior to termination, or as provided in the Confidentiality Agreement, in which case the aggrieved Party shall be entitled to all rights and remedies available at law or in equity.

Section 10.03    Remedies Upon Termination.

(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Buyer and the Seller agree that in the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Seller or the Buyer pursuant to Section 10.01(e) or Section 10.01(f) where (A) all of the conditions set forth in Section 9.01(a) (other than if the applicable Governmental Order or Law relates to a Closing Buyer Gaming Approval) and Section 9.03 (other than those conditions set forth in Section 9.03 that by their nature are to be satisfied or waived at the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing and that are capable of being so satisfied) have been satisfied as of the date of such termination, or (in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 10.01(e)) are reasonably capable of satisfaction by the Outside Date; (B) any Closing Buyer Gaming Approval has not been received or is not in effect as of the date of such termination; (C) all Closing Seller Approvals shall have been duly obtained and shall be in full force and effect; and (D) no limitation or suspension of, or failure of any Subsidiary Seller to hold, any Permit under Gaming Laws required to conduct casino gaming at the Conveyed Properties has occurred since the date of this Agreement that has caused the failure of the conditions set forth in Section 9.01(b)(ii) to be satisfied, then the Buyer shall pay to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds a fee of Twenty Five Million Two Hundred Ninety Nine Thousand dollars ($25,299,000) (the “Termination Fee”) within two (2) Business Days of the date of termination.

(b)    Each Party acknowledges that the provisions of this Section 10.03 are an integral part of the Transactions and that, without these agreements, the Other Party would not enter into this Agreement. If the Buyer fails to promptly pay the Termination Fee if and when due pursuant to this Section 10.03, interest shall accrue on such amount from the date such payment was required to be paid pursuant to the terms of this Section 10.03 until the date of payment at the

prime rate set forth in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made. If, in order to obtain such payment, the Seller commences an Action that results in judgment for the Seller for such amount, the Buyer shall pay the Seller its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with such Action. In no event shall the Buyer be obligated to pay more than one Termination Fee, or a Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(c)    The Parties acknowledge that the damages resulting from termination of this Agreement under circumstances in which a Termination Fee is payable are uncertain and incapable of accurate calculation and that the amounts payable pursuant to Section 10.03 are reasonable forecasts of the actual damages which may be incurred, and agree that in the event a Termination Fee is payable pursuant to this Section 10.03, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the monetary remedies set forth in this Section 10.03 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Seller and its Affiliates and Representatives against the Buyer, the Financing Parties and any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, Representatives or Affiliates for any loss suffered as a result of any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement, for Fraud, or the failure of the Transactions to be consummated, and upon payment of such amount, none of the Buyer, the Financing Parties nor any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, controlling persons, Representatives or Affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions. The Parties further agree that the specific performance remedies set forth in Section 11.11 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Buyer against the Seller and its Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, controlling person, Representatives or Affiliates for any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the Transactions to be consummated except in the case of (x) Fraud or (y) a Willful Breach of any covenant, warranty or agreement contained in this Agreement occurring prior to termination, or as provided in the Confidentiality Agreement, in which case the aggrieved Party shall be entitled to all rights and remedies available at law or in equity, and neither the Seller and its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, Representatives or Affiliates shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions, except in the case of (x) Fraud or (y) a Willful Breach of any covenant, warranty or agreement contained in this Agreement occurring prior to termination, or as provided in the Confidentiality Agreement, in which case the aggrieved Party shall be entitled to all rights and remedies available at law or in equity.

Section 11.04    Severability. Any non-material term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining provisions of this Agreement in such jurisdiction or rendering that or any other provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction. If a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Parties agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision.

Section 11.05    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any documents and instruments executed pursuant hereto and thereto, constitute the sole and entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous representations, warranties, understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and the Exhibits, the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

Section 11.06    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither Party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Other Party, except that (i) the Buyer may assign any and all of its rights under this Agreement to one or more of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries and (ii) the Buyer shall be permitted to assign any of its rights (but not obligations) under this Agreement to any Financing Parties for purpose of creating a security interest herein or otherwise assigning as collateral in respect of any Financing. No assignment shall relieve the assigning Party of any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 11.07    No Third-party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement except the Financing Parties may enforce (and the Financing Parties are intended third party beneficiaries of) the provisions of Section 10.03(c) (solely to the extent that it relates to the Financing Parties), this Section 11.07 (solely to the extent that it relates to the Financing Parties), Section 11.08 (solely to the extent that it relates to the Financing Parties), the proviso in the first sentence of Section 11.09 and Section 11.10(d).

Section 11.08    No Recourse; Release.

(a)    This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against the entities that are expressly identified as Parties hereto and no past, present or future Affiliate, director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or Representative of any Party hereto has any Liability for any obligations or Liabilities of the Parties or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the Transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, the Seller agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that none of the Financing Parties or any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, members, controlling Person, Representatives or Affiliates shall have any Liability or obligation to the Seller or any of its Affiliates relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions (including any Financing) whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Section 11.08 shall limit the rights of the Seller or its Affiliates pursuant to any existing financing arrangements of the Seller or such Affiliate with any of the Financing Parties.

(b)    Effective as of the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing, except for any rights or obligations under this Agreement, the Seller, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates (including the Subsidiary Sellers) and each of its and their respective past, present and future Representatives, general or limited partners, management companies, members, stockholders, equity holders, controlling Persons, Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any heir, executor, administrator, successor or assign of any of the foregoing (collectively, in such capacities, the “Releasing Parties”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases and forever discharges the Transfer Subs, each of their past, present and future Representatives, general or limited partners, management companies, members, stockholders, equity holders, controlling Persons, Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any heir, executor, administrator, successor or assign of any of the foregoing (in each case in their capacity as such) (collectively, the “Released Parties”) of and from any and all Actions, causes of action, executions, judgments, duties, dues, accounts, bonds, Contracts, Liabilities and covenants (whether express or implied), whatsoever whether in law or in equity (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise), which the Releasing Parties may have against each of the Released Parties, now or in the future, in each case, arising from any cause, matter or event occurring prior to the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing and, in each case, with respect to its ownership of equity interests in the Transfer Subs or in its capacity as an Affiliate of the Transfer Subs or a Representative, general or limited partner, management company, member, stockholder, equity holder, controlling Person, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Transfer Subs or an Affiliate of the Transfer Subs; provided, that the release given under this Section 11.08 shall not apply to any claims arising under this Agreement.

Section 11.09    Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by the Buyer and the Seller; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Section 10.03(c) (solely to the extent that it relates to the Financing Parties), Section 11.07 (solely to the extent that it relates to the Financing Parties), Section 11.08 (solely to the extent that it relates to the Financing Parties), this proviso of Section 11.09 and Section 11.10(d) (and any related definition to the extent

an amendment of such definition would modify the substance of any of the foregoing provisions) may not be amended in a manner that is materially adverse to the Financing Parties without the prior written consent of the Financing Parties. No waiver by either Party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. No waiver by either Party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

Section 11.10    Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)    This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether at Law, in contract or in tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

(b)    Subject to the provisions of Section 11.11, the Parties irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, in connection with any dispute that arises in respect of this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement or in respect of the Transactions, and hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any Action for interpretation or enforcement hereof or any such document that it is not subject thereto or that such Action may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and each Party irrevocably agrees that all claims with respect to such Action shall be heard and determined exclusively in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware (the “Chosen Courts”) and that it will not bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the documents referred to in this Agreement or the Transactions in any other court. The Parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such Parties and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with such Action in the manner provided in this Section 11.10(b) or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof and each Party agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from such court; provided, that each Party’s consent to jurisdiction contained in this Section 11.10(b) is solely for the purpose referred to in this Section 11.10(b) and shall not be deemed to be a general submission to such courts or a submission to such courts other than for such purpose.

(c)    EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY

HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (II) SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THE FOREGOING WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.10(c).

(d)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party agrees (i) that it will not bring or support or permit any of its Affiliates to bring or support anyone else in bringing any claim or cause of action (whether at Law, in contract or in tort or otherwise) against any Financing Party relating to this Agreement, any Financing, any document relating to any Financing, the Transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and the appellate courts thereof), (ii) any such claim or cause of action shall (except as otherwise expressly provided in any document relating to any Financing) be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof, and (iii) to waive any right to trial by jury in respect of any such claim, suit, action or proceeding.

Section 11.11    Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by the Parties. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the Chosen Courts – provided that, solely to the extent necessary to enforce obligations hereunder related to the transfer of real property as determined by the Chosen Courts, the Buyer may pursue an action or proceeding in the state courts of the State of Ohio and the federal courts of the United States of America located in Cuyahoga County, Ohio – without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each Party agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance and further agrees not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach, in each case, solely where such remedy is expressly permitted hereunder. Each Party further agrees that no Other Party nor any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 11.11, and each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event that the Buyer pays the

Termination Fee in accordance with Section 10.03, the Termination Fee shall be the Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy for the Buyer’s failure to consummate the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing.

Section 11.12    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

Section 11.13    Payments and Revenues. If, after the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing, any Party shall receive any payment, revenue or other amount that belongs to another Party pursuant to this Agreement, such receiving Party shall promptly remit or cause to be remitted such amount to the Party entitled to such amount.

Section 11.14    Survival. Except to the extent set forth in Section 8.19, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or in any certificates or other documents delivered prior to or as of the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing shall survive until (but not beyond) the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing. Accordingly, no claim of any nature whatsoever for breach of such representations, warranties, covenants or agreements may be made, or Action instituted, after the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing, except as otherwise set forth in Section 8.19. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the covenants and agreements that by their terms are to be satisfied or survive after the Closing Date (including Section 8.19), shall survive until satisfied in accordance with their terms, and claims may be made, and Actions instituted, after the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or prohibit the rights of the Buyer to pursue recoveries under the R&W Insurance Policy or the rights and remedies of the Buyer in the event of Fraud or Willful Breach on the part of Seller.

Section 11.15    Buyer’s and Transfer Subs’ Reliance on its Investigations. The provisions of this Section 11.15 shall survive the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing indefinitely and shall not be deemed merged into any of the Transfer Sub Membership Interests Closing documents.

(a)    THE BUYER AND EACH TRANSFER SUB EACH ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE, BY CONSUMMATING THE TRANSACTIONS, EACH WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN GIVEN A FULL OPPORTUNITY TO INSPECT AND INVESTIGATE EACH AND EVERY ASPECT OF EACH CONVEYED PROPERTY, EITHER INDEPENDENTLY OR THROUGH AGENTS OF THE BUYER’S CHOOSING.

(b)    WITHOUT LIMITING THE ABOVE, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN ANY AGREEMENT ENTERED INTO BETWEEN THE BUYER AND/OR ITS AFFILIATES, ON THE ONE HAND, AND THE SELLER AND/OR ITS AFFILIATES, ON THE OTHER HAND, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE MASTER LEASE WITH RESPECT TO THE MASTER LEASE TENANTS AND THEIR AFFILIATES, THE LEASE GUARANTY WITH RESPECT TO THE GUARANTOR AND ITS AFFILIATES AND THE LOAN AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO HIGBEE TRANSFEROR, THE OTHER BORROWER THEREUNDER, GUARANTOR AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COVENANT OR OBLIGATION OF THE

Section 11.16    Master Lease.
