ARTICLE III
BUYER'S INSPECTION PERIOD
3.1 BUYER'S INSPECTION PERIOD. Buyer's obligation to purchase the
Property is conditioned upon Buyer's review and approval (at Buyer's sole
cost and expense) during the Inspection Period of the following:
(a) The Preliminary Title Report and copies of all exceptions to
title described therein; and a boundary survey of the Property prepared by
▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, dated December 15, 1982, and an updated boundary survey
prepared by ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ which will reflect the easements of record and the
improvements, if any, within the vicinity of the boundaries of such easements
(together, the "Survey"). If any exceptions appear in the Preliminary Title
Report, other than the standard printed exceptions set forth in the ALTA
Owner's Policy 1970 form B of title insurance, or on the Survey that affect
the Property and are unacceptable to Buyer, Buyer shall, on or before ten
(10) days after Seller delivers the updated Survey to Buyer, notify Seller in
writing of such fact and the reasons therefor ("Buyer's Title Objections").
Upon the expiration of said ten (10) day period, Buyer shall be deemed to
have accepted all exceptions to title and all other matters shown on the
Preliminary Title Report and Survey (except for the Buyer's Title Objections
if the same are timely raised) and such exceptions shall be included in the
term "Permitted Exceptions" as used herein. Within five (5) days after
receiving Buyer's Title Objections, Seller shall notify Buyer whether it is
willing to eliminate or modify Buyer's Title Objections to the reasonable
satisfaction of Buyer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
Seller shall have no obligation to bring any action or proceeding or
otherwise incur any expense whatsoever to eliminate or modify any of Buyer's
Title Objections unless it notifies Buyer that it is willing to eliminate or
modify Buyer's Title Objections. In the event Seller notifies Buyer that it
is unwilling to so eliminate or modify Buyer's Title Objections (or fails to
provide notice in the five (5) day period which failure shall be deemed
notice, at the end of such period, of Seller's unwillingness) or having
notified Buyer of its willingness, is unable to eliminate or modify Buyer's
Title Objections to the reasonable satisfaction of Buyer prior to the Closing
Date, Buyer (A) may (as its sole and exclusive remedy) terminate this
Agreement by
7
notice in writing to Seller by the earlier to occur of (i) the Closing Date
or (ii) five (5) days following notice (or deemed notice) from Seller that it
is unwilling or unable to eliminate or modify Buyer's Title Objections, or
(B) may accept such title as Seller can deliver, without any reduction in the
Purchase Price, in which event such uncured Buyer's Title Objections shall be
included in the term "Permitted Exceptions" as used herein. If Buyer does
not elect to terminate within the period described in the immediately
preceding sentence, Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted all exceptions to
title and all other matters shown on the Preliminary Title Report and Survey
(except for any Buyer's Title Objections which are timely raised by Buyer and
which Seller has agreed to eliminate or modify and has in fact been able to
eliminate or modify) and such exceptions shall be included in the term
"Permitted Exceptions" as used herein. In the event of the termination of
this Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.1(a), Buyer shall pay all of the
title and escrow charges, if any, the Deposit shall be promptly returned to
Buyer, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations
hereunder (except pursuant to the indemnity contained in Section 11.1).
The term "Permitted Exceptions" as used in this Agreement shall
include: (i) any easement, right of way, encroachment, conflict,
discrepancy, overlapping or improvements, protrusion, lien, encumbrance,
restriction, condition, covenant or other matter with respect to the Property
that is reflected on the Survey or the Preliminary Title Report and which
Buyer accepts or to which Buyer fails to timely object pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 3.1(a), (ii) non-delinquent liens for real estate
taxes and assessments; (iii) the rights and interests of parties claiming
under the Leases; (iv) any exceptions to title which would be revealed or
disclosed by the public records or by a physical inspection and/or accurate
survey of the Property; and (v) all zoning ordinances and regulations and any
other laws, ordinances or environmental regulations restricting or regulating
the use, occupancy or enjoyment of the Property). The foregoing enumeration
of Permitted Exceptions shall in no event diminish or otherwise affect
Buyer's right to terminate this Agreement for any reason during the
Inspection Period pursuant to Section 3.2.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer, at its sole cost and expense,
shall use best efforts to obtain prior to the Closing a revised Survey that
will meet the Title Company's minimum requirements for issuance of the Title
Policy with a deletion of the general survey exception (the "Expanded
Survey"). Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer to obtain the
Expanded Survey. Buyer shall have until the later of the end of the
Inspection Period or two (2) business days following completion of such
Expanded Survey to notify Seller in writing ("Expanded Survey Objection
Notice") of any survey matter which (i) is either not depicted on the prior
Survey or contradicts the prior Survey, AND (ii) would materially and
adversely affect Buyer's use and operation of the Property (the "Expanded
Survey Objections"). Seller shall have two (2) business days after receipt
of such Expanded Survey Objection Notice to give Buyer: (a) written notice
that Seller shall use all reasonable efforts to remove all the Expanded
Survey Objections from title on or before the Closing Date; or (b) written
notice that Seller elects not to cause the Expanded Survey Objections to be
removed. If Seller gives Buyer notice under clause (b), Buyer shall have two
(2) business days to elect to proceed with the purchase or terminate this
Agreement. If Buyer shall fail to give Seller written notice of its election
within said two (2) business days, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to
waive its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of
this Paragraph. In the event Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Paragraph, Buyer shall pay
all of the title and escrow charges, if any, the Deposit shall be promptly
returned to
8
Buyer, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations
hereunder, except pursuant to the indemnity contained in Section 11.1 hereof.
In the event that Buyer does not obtain an Expanded Survey on or
before the Closing Date, Buyer shall have the right to elect to extend the
Closing Date to April 27, 1998, in order to obtain the Expanded Survey.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that
Buyer either does not obtain the Expanded Survey or have sufficient time to
review and approve the Expanded Survey pursuant to the timeframes set forth
above prior to April 27, 1998, Buyer shall either elect to proceed with the
purchase or terminate this Agreement on April 27, 1998.

Intangibles and the Construction and Other Contracts.
(c) The FF&E, the Operating Equipment, the Operating Supplies, and
all other Personal Property.

other similar reports or assessments relating to the physical and
environmental condition of the Property, including, without limitation, all

22
and either party owing the other party a sum of money based on such
subsequent proration(s) shall promptly pay said sum to the other party.
Buyer and Seller further agree that if any accounts receivable arising prior
to the Closing Date that are assigned to Buyer pursuant to Section 9.4 are
not collected by Buyer within one hundred twenty (120) days from the Closing
Date despite Buyer's good faith efforts to collect such accounts receivable
during such one hundred twenty (120) day period, then Buyer shall have no
further obligation to collect or pay Seller for such uncollected accounts
receivable and such accounts receivable shall be reassigned to Seller,
together with all supporting documentation reasonably required by Seller to
pursue collection of such accounts; provided, that if following such
reassignment, Buyer shall receive payment with respect to any such reassigned
accounts receivable, Buyer shall promptly forward same to Seller.
9.6 SALE OF PERSONAL PROPERTY. On the Closing Date, Seller shall
cause the Personal Property to be transferred to Buyer free of any liens,
encumbrances or interests of third parties or of Seller (except for equipment
lessors of any Operating Equipment being leased by Seller and except for any
software licensing restrictions disclosed to Buyer during the Inspection
Period). The portion of the Purchase Price allocable to the Personal
Property shall be as mutually and reasonably determined by Seller and Buyer
on or prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period and set forth on
SCHEDULE 1. Seller shall pay on or prior to the Closing Date all sales and
use taxes arising from or attributable to the business and operations of the
Hotel as conducted by Seller prior to the Closing Date. Prior to the
expiration of the Inspection Period, Buyer and Seller agree to use good faith
efforts to negotiate an agreement (the "Sales Tax Agreement") which
memorializes and confirms the 50/50 split of any and all liability (including
the reasonable costs of any audit or other proceeding) relative to sales or
use taxes, if any, arising by reason of Seller's transfer of the Personal
Property. The Sales Tax Agreement shall address such matters as the joint
defense of any claim for such taxes and security for the performance of each
party's obligations thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the execution
and delivery of the Sales Tax Agreement shall not be a condition precedent to
either Buyer's or Seller's obligation to consummate the transaction
contemplated hereunder.

same manner as prior to the date hereof pursuant to Seller's normal course of
business, subject to reasonable wear and tear and further subject to the
occurrence of any damage or destruction to the Property by casualty or other
causes or events beyond the control of Seller; provided, however, that
Seller's obligation under this Section 10.1 shall not include any obligation
to make capital expenditures or any other expenditures not incurred in
Seller's normal course of business; (b) continue to maintain its existing
insurance coverage on the Property (which insurance shall be terminated by

23
business and in accordance with Seller's current and customary practices
and policies.
10.2 BUYER'S APPROVAL OF NEW CONTRACTS AFFECTING THE PROPERTY.
Seller shall not, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date,
enter into any lease, amendment of lease, contract or agreement pertaining in
any material way to the Property, or modify in any material way any Assumed
Contracts pertaining in any material way to the Property, or waive any
material rights of Seller thereunder, without in each case obtaining Buyer's
prior written consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed (excluding, however, any booking or room reservation
agreements or contracts which are on commercially reasonable terms with
unaffiliated third parties, and any other contracts or agreements with
unaffiliated third parties which are on commercially reasonable terms and
which will not survive the Closing or which may be canceled without penalty

its approval or disapproval of any such proposed action within five (5)
business days after Seller notifies Buyer of such decision to take such
action, Buyer shall be deemed to have given its approval thereto. For
purposes of this Section 10.2, notice shall be given by Seller to Buyer by
facsimile sent to ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ at (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇, with a facsimile copy sent

ARTICLE XI
SELLER'S AND BUYER'S COVENANTS
11.1 ACCESS. Between the execution of this Agreement and the
Closing Date, Seller shall give Buyer and its employees, representatives,
agents, third party consultants and advisors full access to the Property and
to all of Seller's books, contracts, files, commitments, permits, licenses
and any other records Buyer deems appropriate with respect thereto and to all
management and the Director of Sales and Marketing of the Property (and other
employees of the Property with Seller's consent; provided, however, after the
expiration of the Inspection Period, Seller's consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), subject to reasonable security precautions and
reasonable limitations imposed by Seller as necessary to maintain
confidentiality with respect to such matters as Seller's files and records
relating to the marketing of the Property, internal economic analyses, and
matters covered by the attorney-client privilege. Upon execution of this
Agreement, Buyer shall have full authority to contact any Authorities that
may have information and/or documentation concerning the Property; provided,
however, any and all communications with employees and/or officials of the
City of Oakland and County of Alameda and with union representatives shall be
coordinated by, and at Seller's discretion, conducted with ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ who
shall make himself reasonably available to Buyer for such purposes. Seller
will cause its accountants to furnish such additional financial and operating
data and other information, within the possession and control of such
accountants, as Buyer may from time to time reasonably request.
In connection with any entry by Buyer, or its agents, employees or
contractors onto the Property, Buyer shall give Seller reasonable advance
notice of such entry and shall conduct such entry and any inspections in
connection therewith so as to minimize, to the extent reasonably possible,
interference with Seller's business, the business of Seller's tenants, or
24
guests of the Hotel, and otherwise in a manner reasonably acceptable to
Seller. Without limiting the foregoing, prior to any entry to perform any
on-site inspections or testing, Buyer shall give Seller written notice
thereof, including the identity of the company or persons who will perform
such testing and the proposed scope of the testing. Seller shall approve or
disapprove (which approval may be withheld in Seller's reasonable discretion)
the proposed testing and the party performing the same within two (2)
business days after receipt of such notice. If Buyer or its agents, employees
or contractors take any sample from the Property in connection with any such
approved testing, Buyer shall provide to Seller a portion of such sample
being tested to allow Seller, if it so chooses, to perform its own testing.
Seller or its representative may be present to observe any testing or other
inspection performed on the Property. Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller
copies of any reports relating to any testing or other inspections of the
Property performed by Buyer or its agents, employees or contractors for
Seller's information only; Seller acknowledges that such reports are
delivered without representations by Buyer. Buyer shall maintain, and shall
ensure that its contractors maintain, public liability and property damage
insurance in amounts and in form and substance reasonably adequate to insure
against all liability of Buyer and its agents, employees or contractors,
arising out of any entry or inspections of the Property pursuant to the
provisions hereof, and Buyer shall provide Seller with evidence of such
insurance coverage upon request by Seller. Buyer shall indemnify and hold
Seller harmless from and against any costs, damages, liabilities, losses,
expenses, liens or claims (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorney's fees) relating to personal injury or property damage arising out
of or relating to any entry on the Property by Buyer, its agents, employees
or contractors in the course of performing the inspections, testings or
inquiries provided for in this Agreement. The indemnification provisions of
this Section 11.1 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this
Agreement and shall be in addition to any liability under Section 2.2(b)(ii).
11.2 CONFIDENTIALITY; RETURN OF INFORMATION TO SELLER. Between the
execution of this Agreement and the Closing, neither party shall directly or
indirectly use or disclose any confidential information concerning the
Property, the other party, the other party's assets or the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement to any Person except that such matters may be
disclosed (a) to such party's directors, officers, partners, and employees;
(b) to such party's legal counsel, accountants, engineers, architects,
financial advisors, lenders and similar professionals and consultants to the
extent such party deems it reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection
with the evaluation of the transaction contemplated hereby; and (c) by Seller
to third parties having an ownership interest in or relationship with the
Hotel (such as existing mortgagees and equipment lessors) to whom disclosure
is necessary or desirable in order to facilitate the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby. For the purpose of this Section 11.2, the
term "confidential information" shall mean information which is or becomes
known to a party or its respective affiliates or to their employees, former
employees, consultants or others in a confidential relationship with such
party, including, without limitation, pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, and which relates to the Property, the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement or the business of either party; provided, however, that
confidential information shall not include (i) information which is or
becomes generally available to the public other than through a violation of
law or obligation hereunder, (ii) information which, in the opinion of
counsel to either party, such party is required by law, court order,
governmental order or decree to disclose, except that the other party may at
its own expense appeal such court order, (iii) information which was
developed by such party on its own, independent from the proprietary
information made available to such party hereunder, and (iv) information
which was
25
subsequently made available to such party by a third party who was not
violating the law or any obligation hereunder in making such disclosure. In
the event the transaction contemplated by this Agreement fails to close for
any reason, Buyer shall promptly return to Seller all documents, instruments,
copies of materials and other written information furnished to Buyer pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement.
11.3 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, each party agrees to use its best efforts to do, or cause to be done,
all things, not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, necessary,
proper, or advisable under applicable laws and regulations to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement as expeditiously as practicable,
including, without limitation, the performance of such further acts or the
execution and delivery of such additional instruments or documents, not
inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, as any party may reasonably
request in order to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, in
connection with the transfer to Buyer of the Service Contracts, the Leases,
and the Equipment Leases.
11.4 EMPLOYEES. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless
from and against any and all claims of the employees of Seller, employee
representatives, and applicable units of local government based on failure to
comply with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act 29 U.S.C.
2101 ET SEQ. (the "WARN Act"), to the extent applicable. Unless otherwise
agreed between Seller and Buyer, Seller shall be responsible for any
liability for payment of all employees' wages, accrued vacation pay, sick
leave, bonuses, pension benefits and other benefits, including, without
limitation, any COBRA rights, earned by and due to or accrued to employees at
the Property as of the day prior to the Closing Date, together with FICA,
unemployment and other taxes and benefits due from any employer of such
employees, and including COBRA benefits that are due to employees of Seller
that Buyer does not hire upon the Closing Date.
(a) FUTURE EMPLOYMENT OF EMPLOYEES. At Closing, the employment by
Seller of all employees whose employment is at or for the Hotel, shall
terminate and such employees shall cease to participate in any employee
benefit plans maintained by or for the benefit of Seller. Seller shall retain
responsibility for the payment of any employee benefits or entitlements,
including severance pay, accrued vacation, sick or holiday pay, to all
terminated employees pursuant to any employee benefit plan, fund, program,
contract, policy or arrangement of Seller or applicable law or regulation as
a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
Subject to the WARN Act obligations described in the first paragraph of
Section 11.4, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall confer
upon any employee of Seller, or any representative of any such employee, any
rights or remedies, including any right to employment, continued employment
for any period, or seniority rights, of any nature whatsoever.
(b) HEALTH CARE CONTINUATION REQUIREMENTS. The parties
acknowledge that the transactions contemplated hereby will result in
obligations on the part of Seller and one or more of Seller's employee
benefit plans that is a welfare benefit plan (within the meaning of Section
3(1) of ERISA) to comply with the health care continuation requirements of
Part 6 of Title 1 of ERISA and Code Section 4980B, as applicable. Seller and
each such employee benefit plan that is such a welfare benefits plan shall
comply with the applicable requirements of such laws. Seller shall take all
actions to insure continuation of each such employee benefit plan that
26
is such a welfare benefit plan for a minimum period of one hundred twenty
(120) days from and after the Closing Date. The parties expressly agree that
Buyer and Buyer's benefit plans, if any, shall have no responsibility for
compliance with such health care continuation requirements (i) for qualified
beneficiaries who previously elected to receive continued coverage under
Seller's ERISA benefit plans or who between the date of this Agreement and
the Closing Date elect to receive continued coverage, or (ii) with respect to
those employees or former employees of Seller who may become eligible to
receive such continued coverage as a result of the transactions provided for
in this Agreement.
(c) EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. Except as specifically set forth in
this Agreement: (i) Buyer shall not be obligated to assume, continue or
maintain any of Seller's employee benefit plans; (ii) no assets or
liabilities of such employee benefit plans shall be transferred to, or
assumed by, the Buyer or the Buyer's benefit plans; and (iii) Seller shall be
responsible solely for funding and/or payment of any benefits under any such
employee benefit plans, including any termination benefits and other employee
entitlements accrued under such plans by or attributable to employees of
Seller prior to the Closing Date.
(d) INDEMNIFICATION OF BUYER. Seller agrees to pay and be liable
to Buyer, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers and
employees (herein individually a "Buyer Indemnified Party" and collectively,
"Buyer Indemnified Parties") and shall assume, indemnify, defend and hold
harmless the Buyer Indemnified Parties from and against and in respect of any
and all losses, damages, liabilities, taxes, sanctions that arise (A) under
Section 4980B of the Code and Part 6 of Title I of ERISA, interest and
penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, disbursements
and reasonable legal fees incurred in connection therewith and in seeking
indemnification therefor, and any amounts or expenses required to be paid or
incurred in connection with any action, suit, proceedings, claim, appeal,
demand, assessment or judgment) imposed upon, incurred by, or assessed
against any Buyer Indemnified Party arising by reason of or relating to any
failure to comply with the health care continuation coverage requirements of
Section 4980B of the Code and Part 6 of Title I or ERISA which failure
occurred or occurs (i) on or prior to the Closing Date with respect to any
current or former employee of Seller or any qualified beneficiary of such
employee (as defined in Section 4980B(g)(1) of the Code), or (ii) after the
Closing Date with respect to any current or former employee of Seller who
does not at any time become entitled to coverage under any group health plan,
within the meaning of Section 5000(b)(1) of the Code, of Buyer, or with
respect to any dependent of such employee and for any failure to comply with
the notice or other requirements of the Act, and/or (B) in connection with
any employee complaints and/or matters pending before any applicable
administrative agencies, including without limitation, the National Labor
Relations Board, EEOC, Department of Labor, Department of Fair Employment
Housing, and/or any applicable collective bargaining dispute resolution
forums prior to the Closing Date or relating to incidents arising prior to
the Closing Date.
(e) INDEMNIFICATION OF SELLER. Buyer agrees to pay and be liable
to Seller, its affiliates and their respective officers and employees (herein
individually a "Seller Indemnified Party" and collectively, "Seller
Indemnified Parties") and shall assume, indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Seller Indemnified Parties from and against and in respect of any and all
losses, damages, liabilities, taxes, sanctions that arise (A) under Section
4980B of the Code and Part 6 of Title I of ERISA, interest and penalties,
costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
27
disbursements and reasonable legal fees incurred in connection therewith and
in seeking indemnification therefor, and any amounts or expenses required to
be paid or incurred in connection with any actions, suit, proceedings, claim,

assessed against any Seller Indemnified Party arising by reason of or
relating to any failure to comply with the health care continuation coverage
requirements of Section 4980B of the Code and Part 6 of Title I of ERISA
which failure occurs with respect to any current or former employee of Seller
actually hired as an employee of Buyer or any qualified beneficiary of such
employee, as defined in Section 4980B(g)(1) of the Code, who after the
Closing Date becomes entitled to coverage under any group health plan, within
the meaning of Section 5000(b)(1) of the Code, of Buyer, and/or (B) in
connection with any employee complaints and/or matters before any applicable
administrative agencies, including without limitation, the National Labor

designee and shall prosecute such application with due diligence, including
supplying to the Department promptly all information required or reasonably

diligently to obtain, prior to the Closing Date, the Department's approval of
the application for transfer of the Liquor Licenses and the application for

parties, shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
unenforceable, or void, the remainder of this Agreement and such provisions
as applied to other Persons, places, and circumstances shall remain in full
force and effect.
12.6 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
12.7 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Buyer shall not have the right to
assign all or any part of its interest in this Agreement without obtaining
the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld in
Seller's sole and absolute discretion, except Buyer may assign this Agreement
or any portion thereof to any of its subsidiaries and affiliates upon notice
thereof to Seller (a "Permitted Assignment"). In no event shall Buyer be
released from any of its obligations or liabilities hereunder whether or not
Seller approves of any assignment of this Agreement or there is a Permitted
Assignment. Buyer hereby agrees that any assignment by Buyer in
contravention of this provision shall be void and shall not relieve Buyer of
its obligations and liabilities hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this
Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties
hereto and their respective successors, heirs, administrators and assigns.
12.8 FINDERS AND BROKERS. Except as expressly provided to the
contrary in this Agreement, each party hereto shall pay its own expenses
(including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The parties
represent and warrant to each other that no broker or finder was involved in
32
arranging or bringing about this transaction and there are no claims or
rights for brokerage commissions or finders' fees in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for Eastdil Realty
Company, Inc., whose commission shall be paid by Seller pursuant to a
separate agreement between Seller and Eastdil Realty Company, Inc. In the
event that any broker or finder brings a claim for a commission or finder's
fee based upon any contact, dealings or communication with Buyer or Seller,
the party through whom the broker or finder makes his claim shall defend the
other party from such claim, and shall indemnify the other party and hold the
other party harmless from any and all damages, liabilities, losses, costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) paid or
incurred by the other party in defending against the claim. The provisions
of this Section 12.8 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this
Agreement and shall be in addition to any liability under Section 2.2(b)(ii).
12.9 ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event either party hereto fails to
perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or in the event any
dispute arises between the parties hereto concerning the meaning or
interpretation of any provision of this Agreement, the defaulting party or
the party not prevailing in such dispute, as the case may be, shall pay any
and all costs and expenses incurred by the other party on account of such
default and/or in enforcing or establishing its rights hereunder, including,
without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements.
12.10 WAIVER OF COMPLIANCE. Any failure of Seller, on the one
hand, or Buyer, on the other, to comply with any provision of this Agreement
may be expressly waived in writing by Buyer or Seller, respectively, but such
waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such provision shall
not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or
other failure. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising any right,
remedy, or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, or power hereunder preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
remedy, or power provided herein or by law or in equity. The waiver by any
party of the time for performance of any act or condition hereunder does not
constitute a waiver of the act or condition itself.
12.11 SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS. The representations of
Seller and Buyer contained in Sections 6.1 and 7.1 shall survive for a period
of twelve (12) months after the Closing. Any claim that either Buyer or
Seller may have at any time against the other party for a breach of any such
representation, whether known or unknown, which is not asserted by written
notice to such other party within such twelve (12) month period shall not be
valid or effective, and such other party shall have no liability with respect
thereto.
12.12 AMENDMENTS. This Agreement may not be amended or
modified except by a written instrument signed by both Buyer and Seller.
12.13 TIME OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the
performance of Buyer's obligations under this Agreement.
12.14 SECTION 1031 EXCHANGE. It is presently contemplated that
HIC may desire to effectuate a tax-deferred exchange (also known as a "1031"
exchange) (an "Exchange") in
33
connection with the sale of the portion of the Real Property that is
presently owned by HIC. Buyer hereby agrees to cooperate with HIC in
connection with such Exchange (including, without limitation, by executing
documents consenting to the assignment of this Agreement to an exchange
facilitator), provided that:
(i) All documents executed by Buyer in connection with the
Exchange shall be subject to the prior reasonable approval of Buyer and shall
recognize that that Buyer is acting solely as an accommodating party to such
Exchange, shall have no liability with respect thereto, and is making no
representation or warranty that the transaction qualifies as a tax-free
exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code or any applicable
state or local laws, and Buyer shall have no liability whatsoever if any such
transactions fails to so qualify.
(ii) Such Exchange shall not result in Buyer incurring any
additional costs, liabilities or delay.
(iii) In no event shall Buyer be obligated to acquire any
property or otherwise be obligated to take title, or appear in the records of
title, to any property in connection with such Exchange.
(iv) In no event shall HIC's consummation of such Exchange
constitute a condition precedent to Seller's obligations under this
Agreement, and HIC's failure or inability to consummate such Exchange for any
reason or for no reason at all shall not be deemed to excuse or release that
party from the Seller's obligations under this Agreement.
12.15 SHADOW MANAGEMENT. Upon the expiration of the Inspection
Period and provided that Buyer has not elected to terminate this Agreement,
as provided herein, Seller shall permit Buyer to establish and maintain a
shadow management operation with respect to the Hotel. Personnel from
Buyer's shadow management operation shall have reasonable access during
normal business hours to all books, records and other information in the
possession or control of records and other information in the possession or
control of Seller or its agents concerning the Hotel and shall have the right
(at Buyer's expense) to establish duplicate books and records (whether in
tangible or electronic form) in order to effect a smooth transition in the
ownership and management of the Hotel; provided, however, that Buyer and its
shadow management operation and employees shall not unreasonably interfere
with the normal management and operation of the Hotel, shall hold all
information acquired from such books and records confidential in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement, shall repair any damage to the
physical condition of the Hotel caused by Buyer or its agents in any such
shadow management operation, and shall not be deemed to have assumed
management responsibilities prior to Closing by virtue of such shadow
management.
34
12.16 BULK SALES COMPLIANCE. Seller shall and hereby agrees to
indemnify, hold harmless and defend Buyer for any loss, damage, liability,
claim or expense (including, without limitations, reasonable attorneys' fees
and expenses) on account of claims of Seller's creditors arising from
Seller's failure to comply with any applicable bulk sales laws, which
indemnity shall survive the Closing Date.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement
as of the day and year first above written.
