Except as aforesaid, each Seller hereby agrees to be bound by any and all notices sent and actions taken (and notices not sent and actions not taken) by the Sellers’ Representative on his or its behalf pursuant to this Agreement. If for any reason the Sellers’ Representative shall be unable to perform its duties hereunder as Sellers’ Representative, the holders of a majority in interest of the Interests owned immediately prior to the Initial Closing shall appoint a replacement Sellers’ Representative. Buyer shall be entitled to rely exclusively upon any communications or writings given or executed by the Sellers’ Representative and shall not be liable in any manner whatsoever for any action taken or not taken in reliance upon the actions taken or not taken or communications or writings given or executed by the Sellers’ Representative. Buyer shall be entitled to disregard any notices or communications given or made by any Seller, in his or its individual capacity, which is contrary to a notice or communication given or made by the Sellers’ Representative.

All of the immunities and powers granted to the Sellers’ Representative under this Agreement shall survive the Initial Closing, any Subsequent Closing and/or any termination of this Agreement.
Seller Representative (a) The Sellers hereby appoint Xxxxxxx as the “Seller Representative.” The Seller Representative shall serve as representative of the Sellers with full power and authority to take all actions under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements solely on behalf of each of such Sellers. Each Seller by approval of this Agreement, hereby irrevocably appoints the Seller Representative as the agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact for such Seller for all purposes of this Agreement, including full power and authority on such Seller’s behalf (i) to execute and deliver on behalf of such Seller any waiver hereto, (ii) to take all other actions to be taken by or on behalf of such Seller in connection herewith, (iii) to negotiate, settle, compromise and otherwise handle all disputes under Section 2.6 and claims made under Sections 5.3 or Article 6 hereof, and (iv) to do each and every act and exercise any and all rights which such Seller or Sellers collectively are permitted or required to do or exercise under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements. Each Seller agrees that such agency and proxy are coupled with an interest, are therefore irrevocable without the consent of the Seller Representative and shall survive the death, incapacity or bankruptcy of any Seller. Neither the Seller Representative nor any agent employed by it shall incur any liability to any Seller relating to the performance of its duties hereunder except for actions or omissions constituting fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. (b) The Seller Representative agrees that it shall not commence proceedings to liquidate, dissolve or wind up its affairs without providing to Buyer and each other Seller prior written notice of its intention to do so. Upon receipt of such notice, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall have the right, and hereby agree, to appoint a mutually acceptable substitute Person (which may or may not be a Seller) to act as “Seller Representative” hereunder with all rights, powers and authority to act on behalf of the Sellers as the initial Seller Representative has pursuant to this Section 7.1(b). (c) Any expenses or liabilities incurred by the Seller Representative in connection with the performance of its duties in such capacity under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements shall be reimbursed to the Seller Representative by the Sellers. The Seller Representative may from time to time submit invoices to the Sellers covering their Adjusted Pro Rata Portion of such expenses and/or liabilities and, upon the request of any Seller, shall provide such Seller with an accounting of all expenses paid. In addition to any other rights or remedies, the Seller Representative may, upon prior or contemporaneous written notice, offset any amounts determined by it to be owed by any Seller to the Seller Representative against any amounts to be paid to the Sellers. (d) Each Seller shall severally, but not jointly, based on their respective Adjusted Pro Rata Portion, indemnify and hold harmless, the Seller Representative from any and all losses, liabilities and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) arising out of or in connection with the Seller Representative’s execution and performance (solely in its capacity as the Seller Representative and not in its capacity as a Seller) of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, except for fraud or willful misconduct by the Seller Representative. This indemnification will survive the termination of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. The Seller Representative may, in all questions arising under this Agreement, rely on the advice of counsel and for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Seller Representative in accordance with such advice, the Seller Representatives will not be liable to the Sellers. In no event will the Seller Representative (solely in its capacity as the Seller Representative and not in its capacity as a Seller) be liable hereunder or in connection herewith to any of the Sellers for any indirect, punitive, special or consequential damages. (e) Each Seller (including, in each case for purposes of this Section 7.1(e), the Seller Representative) agrees that Buyer and, following the Closing, LPT, shall be entitled to rely on any action taken by the Seller Representative, on behalf of each Seller (each, an “Authorized Action”), and that each Authorized Action shall be binding on each Seller as fully as if such Seller had taken such Authorized Action. Each Seller agrees to pay, and to indemnify and hold harmless, each of the Buyer Parties from and against any Losses which they may suffer, sustain, or become subject to, as the result of any claim by any Person that an Authorized Action is not binding on, or enforceable against, any Seller. In addition, each Seller hereby releases and discharges Buyer and, following the Closing, LPT, from and against any Losses arising out of or in connection with the Seller Representative’s failure to distribute any amounts received by the Seller Representative on the Sellers’ behalf to the Sellers. Payment of all amounts paid by or on behalf of Buyer to the Seller Representative shall constitute payment by Buyer to each of the Sellers and satisfaction of the Buyer’s obligation to pay such amount hereunder (notwithstanding any withholding by the Seller Representative).
