Related to Escrow Title Buyers and Sellers Rights and Obligations

• Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights The obligations of each Buyer under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity, and the Company shall not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The decision of each Buyer to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Buyer independently of any other Buyer. Each Buyer acknowledges that no other Buyer has acted as agent for such Buyer in connection with such Buyer making its investment hereunder and that no other Buyer will be acting as agent of such Buyer in connection with monitoring such Buyer’s investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. The Company and each Buyer confirms that each Buyer has independently participated with the Company and its Subsidiaries in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The use of a single agreement to effectuate the purchase and sale of the Securities contemplated hereby was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of any Buyer, and was done solely for the convenience of the Company and its Subsidiaries and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Buyer. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company, each Subsidiary and a Buyer, solely, and not between the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Buyers collectively and not between and among the Buyers.

• Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, each Purchaser and its respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through EGS. EGS does not represent any of the Purchasers and only represents the Placement Agent. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Purchasers. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.

In no event shall Purchaser be liable to Seller for, or be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of, any breach of representation or warranty that results from any change that (i) occurs between the Effective Date and the Closing Date and (ii) is expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the occurrence of a change that is not permitted hereunder shall constitute the non-fulfillment of the condition set forth in Section 4.3(c).

• Seller’s Obligations Seller shall deliver to Purchaser (at Seller’s expense), within three (3) days after the Effective Date, true, correct, complete and legible copies of all of the due diligence items listed on Schedule “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein with respect to the Property (collectively, the “Due Diligence Items”). Seller shall provide Purchaser with written notice at such time as Seller determines that all Due Diligence Items have been delivered to Purchaser (the “Due Diligence Delivery Notice”). Within two (2) business days following Purchaser’s receipt of the Due Diligence Delivery Notice, Purchaser shall confirm in writing to Seller, if such be the case, that all required Due Diligence Items have been received by Purchaser, in which event the date that Purchaser receives the Due Diligence Delivery Notice shall be deemed to be the “Due Diligence Receipt Date” (herein so called) for all purposes of this Agreement. In the event, however, that Purchaser determines that it has not been provided with all of the Due Diligence Items, then Purchaser shall provide Seller with written notice thereof (the “Missing Due Diligence Notice”), within two (2) business days following Purchaser’s receipt of the Due Diligence Delivery Notice, enumerating with specificity in such notice which Due Diligence Items have not been provided by Seller (the “Missing Due Diligence Items”). Within two (2) business days following Seller’s receipt of the Missing Due Diligence Notice, Seller shall provide Purchaser with the Missing Due Diligence Items, together with written notice confirming such delivery (the “Missing Due Diligence Delivery Notice”). Within two (2) business days following Purchaser’s receipt of the Missing Due Diligence Delivery Notice, accompanied by all Missing Due Diligence Items, Purchaser shall confirm in writing to Seller that Purchaser has received all required Due Diligence Items, in which event the date that Purchaser receives the Missing Due Diligence Delivery Notice, accompanied by all Missing Due Diligence Items, shall be deemed to be the Due Diligence Receipt Date for all purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Purchaser may request additional information, documentation or materials concerning the Property from Seller at any time after the Effective Date, and Seller agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such additional information, documentation or materials to Purchaser, at no cost or expense to Seller, provided it is within Seller’s possession or under its control, and further provided that the delivery or non-delivery of any such item shall in no manner extend the Approval Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.1, should Seller (i) fail to timely deliver the Due Diligence Delivery Notice to Purchaser, as required above, or (ii) fail to timely deliver the Missing Due Diligence Delivery Notice and/or the Missing Due Diligence Items to Purchaser, as required above, then the Due Diligence Receipt Date shall not occur until Purchaser so acknowledges in writing, and until such time as Purchaser so acknowledges the occurrence of the Due Diligence Receipt Date, Purchaser shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller, whereupon this Agreement automatically shall terminate, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned by the Escrow Agent to Purchaser, without the consent or joinder of Seller being required and notwithstanding any contrary instructions which might be provided by Seller, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations.

• Buyer’s Closing Obligations At the Closing, Buyer shall:

• Conditions Precedent to the Seller’s Obligations The obligation of the Seller to consummate the transfer of the Asset as contemplated by this Agreement on the Closing Date is subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Seller) as of the Closing of the following conditions: (a) Each of the representations and warranties made by the Buyer in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects when made and on and as of the Closing Date as though such representations and warranties were made on and as of the Closing Date. (b) The Buyer shall have performed or complied in all material respects with each obligation and covenant required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by the Buyer on or before the Closing. (c) No order or injunction of any court or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction nor any statute, rule, regulation or executive order promulgated by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall be in effect or threatened in writing as of the Closing which restrains or prohibits the transfer of the Asset or the consummation of any other transaction contemplated hereby. (d) The Buyer shall have made (or caused to have been made) all of the deliveries required to be made by the Buyer under SECTION 7.1. (e) The Seller shall have received evidence that the Franchise Agreement has been terminated. (f) Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Buyer or affiliates of Buyer (collectively, “Affiliate Buyers”) are entering into the Related Agreements with other sellers that are affiliates of Seller (collectively, “Other Sellers”). Except as otherwise set forth below, it shall be a condition precedent to the Seller’s obligation to close on the sale of the Asset, that (i) the closing date under the Related Agreements shall be the same as the Closing Date under this Agreement and (ii) the closing of the Related Agreements shall take place simultaneously with the Closing hereunder (i.e., the closing in this Agreement or any Related Agreement will have occurred when all of the conditions precedent to closing set forth in the applicable agreement have been met or waived by the appropriate party, including without limitation the Title Company’s receipt of the applicable deed or assignment of lease and its unconditional and irrevocable commitment to (x) record the deed or assignment of lease; and (y) issue the Title Policy effective as of such date, notwithstanding that such deed or assignment of lease may not have been recorded). If any of the Buyer or Affiliate Buyers defaults under this Agreement or any Related Agreement, as applicable, such default shall be deemed a default by the Buyer and the Affiliate Buyers under this Agreement and all of the Related Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any of the Seller or Other Sellers is in default under this Agreement or any other Related Agreement (any such agreement being a “Defaulted Agreement”), as applicable, and the respective parties thereto fail to close under such Defaulted Agreement, then, so long as the Acquisition Threshold is met, a closing under such Defaulted Agreement shall not be a condition precedent to the Seller’s obligation to close under this Agreement or any other Related Agreement (so long as the Acquisition Threshold is met); provided, however, in the event that the Acquisition Threshold is not met, then such defaults shall constitute a default under this Agreement and all other Related Agreements and the Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement (and all other Related Agreements) and the Seller shall be deemed in breach hereof whereupon the Buyer shall have the remedies set forth in SECTION 11.2(c), except that the aggregate amount of out-of-pocket costs and expenses that the Buyer will be entitled to recover from the Seller for damages under this Agreement and the other Related Agreements shall in no event exceed Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00) under SECTION 11.2(c). Additionally, if any of the Buyer or Affiliate Buyers elects to terminate this Agreement or any Related Agreement, as applicable, under any provision of this Agreement or such Related Agreement that expressly gives the Buyer (or an Affiliate Buyer, as applicable) the right to terminate (other than as the result of the Seller’s default for which the preceding sentence in this clause (f) shall control), then any such notice to terminate under any such agreement shall be deemed an election to terminate this Agreement and all of the Related Agreements, it being the intention of the parties that except as otherwise set forth in this clause (f), there shall be no Closing under this Agreement unless there is a closing under the Related Agreements and vice versa.
