1.3 Permitted Exceptions. The Property shall be conveyed subject to the matters which are, or are deemed to be, Permitted Exceptions pursuant to Article II hereof (herein referred to collectively as the “Permitted Exceptions”).
1.4 Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Property shall be TWENTY MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($20,000,000.00) (“Purchase Price”).
1.5 Payment of Purchase Price.

Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Purchaser is depositing with Chicago Title Insurance Company (the “Title Company”), having its office at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx (the “Escrow Agent”), the sum of Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) (the “Xxxxxxx Money”) in good funds, either by certified bank or cashier’s check or by federal wire transfer. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Xxxxxxx Money in an interest-bearing account in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

ARTICLE II
TITLE AND SURVEY
2.1 Title Commitment. As soon after the Effective Date as reasonably practicable through the use of good faith efforts by Seller, Seller shall cause the Title Company to deliver to Purchaser, at Seller’s expense, (a) a title commitment (“Commitment”) for an owner’s policy of title insurance issued by the Title Company in the amount of the Purchase Price, and (b) copies of all recorded instruments referenced in Schedule B and Schedule C of the Commitment.
2.2 Survey. As soon after the Effective Date as reasonably practicable through the use of good faith efforts by Seller, Seller shall cause to be delivered to Purchaser, at Seller’s expense, the existing survey (the “Existing Survey”) of the Real Estate and Improvements. Purchaser shall, at its sole cost, be responsible for obtaining an updated survey (the “Updated Survey,” and together with the Existing Survey, the “Survey”). Purchaser shall cause a copy of the Updated Survey to be delivered to Seller and the Title Company promptly following completion.
2.3 Review of Commitment and Survey. Purchaser shall have five (5) business days (the “Title Review Period”) after the receipt of the last of the Commitment, copies of all instruments referred to in Schedule B and Schedule C thereof, and the Survey to notify Seller in writing of such objections as Purchaser may have to anything contained in the Commitment or the Survey; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not have the right to object to any Permitted Exceptions described in Section 2.5 below. If Purchaser fails to object in writing to any item contained in the Commitment or the Survey during the Title Review Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right to object to such item, and such item shall thereafter be deemed a Permitted Exception. In the event that Purchaser objects to any item contained in the Commitment or the Survey within the Title Review Period (such items being herein referred to as “Title Defects”), Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) business days following the date of Purchaser’s notice of such Title Defects (the “Cure Period”) that either (a) the Title Defects have been, or will be at or prior to Closing, removed from the Commitment or the Survey, as the case may be, or (b) Seller has failed or refuses to arrange to have the Title Defects removed. Purchaser’s failure to obtain an Updated Survey in a timely manner shall not extend the period for review of the Commitment or Survey beyond the Inspection Period, provided that Purchaser may terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.3.
2.4 Failure to Cure Title Defects. If upon the expiration of the Cure Period Seller has not notified Purchaser that Seller has arranged to have the Title Defects removed, then Purchaser may elect (which election must be made in writing within five (5) days following expiration of the Cure Period) either: (a) to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser as Purchaser’s sole remedy hereunder; or (b) to take title as it then is. If Purchaser does not, within five (5) days after the expiration of the Cure Period, send written notice to Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (a) of the preceding sentence, then: (x) Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to take title as it then is without any reduction in the Purchase Price; (y) all Title Defects not removed from the Commitment or the Survey will thenceforth be deemed Permitted Exceptions; and (z) this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Anything to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, Seller shall have no affirmative obligation hereunder to expend any funds or incur any liabilities in order to cause any matters shown in the Commitment or the Survey to be removed, cured or insured over, except that Seller shall pay or discharge any lien or encumbrance arising after the date hereof and voluntarily created or assumed by Seller and not created by or resulting from the acts of Purchaser or other parties not related to Seller. If the Commitment (or any subsequent revision thereof) discloses exceptions other than the Permitted Exceptions, and other than those which Seller has agreed to insure against, pay or discharge, then unless Purchaser agrees to accept title as it then is without reduction of the Purchase Price, Purchaser may, at its option, terminate this Agreement, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser as Purchaser’s sole remedy under this Agreement.
| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 3 |
2.5 Other Permitted Exceptions. In addition to those matters shown in the Commitment and the Survey which become Permitted Exceptions pursuant to Section 2.4 above, the following shall also be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions: (a) the Leases; (b) taxes and standby fees for the year in which Closing occurs; (c) liens and encumbrances arising after the date hereof to which Purchaser consents in writing; and (d) any liens or encumbrances of a definite or ascertainable amount, provided that Seller causes such liens or encumbrances to be insured around such that same do not appear as an exception in the owner’s title insurance policy issued to Purchaser pursuant to the Commitment.
2.6 Owner Title Policy. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.4 and 2.5, on the Closing Date (or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable) Seller shall cause the Title Company to issue a T-1 owner’s title insurance policy at Seller’s cost insuring fee simple title in Purchaser as of the Closing Date, in accordance with the Commitment, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions; provided, however, that Seller shall have no obligation to pay anything other than the basic premium for such title insurance policy. If Purchaser desires to obtain a modification of the “survey exception” or any other modification or endorsement, same shall be at the sole expense of Purchaser.
2.7 Expiration of Inspection Period. It is the intent of the parties that the right granted to Purchaser to terminate this Agreement shall expire upon the expiration of the Inspection Period, notwithstanding that the Title Review Period, the Cure Period or any election period may extend beyond the expiration of the Inspection Period. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Purchaser has not terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.4(a) prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, then Purchaser shall no longer have any right to terminate this Agreement under Section 2.4(a), and in such event Purchaser shall be bound to accept title to the Property under the conditions specified in Sections 2.4(x), 2.4(y) and 2.4(z) above.
2.8 New Title Defects. In the event that after the delivery of the Existing Survey and after the expiration of the Title Review Period, or, after the expiration of the Inspection Period and prior to Closing, a revision of the Title Commitment or the Updated Survey reveals an adverse matter objectionable to Purchaser that was not disclosed to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period and is not a Permitted Exception (a “New Title Defect”), Purchaser shall have five (5) days after such matter is disclosed to Purchaser to send written notice to Seller of such New Title Defect (it being agreed that if Purchaser fails to object to the New Title Defect within such five-day period, then such New Title Defect shall thereafter be deemed a Permitted Exception). Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within five (5) days following the date of Purchaser’s notice of such New Title Defect (the “New Title Defect Cure Period”) that either (a) the New Title Defect has been, or will be at or prior to Closing, removed from the Commitment or the Survey, as the case may be, or (b) Seller has failed to arrange to have the New Title Defect removed. If, upon the expiration of the New Title Defect Cure Period, Seller has not notified Purchaser that Seller has arranged to have the New Title Defect removed, then Purchaser may elect (which election must be made in writing within five (5) days following expiration of the New Title Defect Cure Period) either: (i) to terminate this Agreement as Purchaser’s sole remedy hereunder (in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser); or (ii) to take title as it then is. If Purchaser does not, within five (5) days after the expiration of the New Title Defect Cure Period, send written notice to Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, then (x) Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to take title as it then is without any reduction in the Purchase Price; (y) the New Title Defect will thenceforth be deemed a Permitted Exception; and (z) this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

ARTICLE III
INSPECTION PERIOD
3.1 Property Documents. As soon after the Effective Date as reasonably practicable through the use of good faith efforts by Seller, Seller shall deliver through a secure website or make available to Purchaser at the Property, to the extent (and only to the extent) that such items are available and in Seller’s actual possession, the documents described on Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes (the “Property Documents”). Purchaser shall, if requested by Seller, execute instruments acknowledging receipt of the Property Documents or any other document delivered or made available to Purchaser in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby. During the Inspection Period (as hereinafter defined), Purchaser may inspect the Property Documents during normal business hours and may photocopy same at Purchaser’s expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Seller shall not be obligated to deliver to Purchaser any report listed in Exhibit B if the terms of such report restrict Seller from doing so. With respect to any report described in Exhibit B which Seller delivers to Purchaser, Purchaser understands and agrees that (a) such report shall be delivered to Purchaser for general information purposes only, (b) Purchaser shall not have any right to rely on any report received from Seller and will not rely thereon, but rather will rely on inspections and reports performed by or on behalf of Purchaser, and (c) Seller shall have absolutely no liability for any inaccuracy in or omission from any report which it delivers to Purchaser. Any failure of Seller to timely deliver any of the Property Documents will not extend the Inspection Period beyond the period prescribed in Section 3.2 hereof, and Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy on account of any such failure will be to terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.3. Seller makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in the Property Documents.
3.2 Right of Inspection. During the period beginning on the day Seller grants Purchaser access to the Property Documents as described in Section 3.1 above and ending at 5 p.m., Dallas, Texas time, on July 25, 2012 (the “Inspection Period”), Purchaser and its representatives (including Purchaser’s architects, engineers and consultants) shall have the right to examine the Property Documents and to make a physical inspection of the Property (including the right to conduct such soil, engineering, environmental, hazardous or toxic material, noise pollution, seismic or other physical test, study or investigation as Purchaser may desire, provided, however, that Purchaser must obtain Seller’s consent, which may be withheld in Seller’s sole discretion, to any physically invasive testing or any testing involving sampling). In this regard, Purchaser and its authorized agents and representatives shall be entitled to enter upon the Property at all reasonable times during the Inspection Period, upon reasonable prior oral or written notice to Seller and sufficient to provide at least 24 hours advance written to any affected tenants and while accompanied by a representative of Seller, subject to the rights of tenants of the Property. All activities by Purchaser or its representatives during the Inspection Period shall be coordinated through Seller’s designated representative, Xxxx Xxxxxx, including, but not limited to, contact with tenants. Purchaser must be accompanied by Seller’s manager for the Property or another designated representative of Seller or have received Seller’s written permission prior to entering upon the Property in connection with Purchaser’s inspection; provided, however, Purchaser may not enter into any space leased by any tenant without being accompanied by Seller’s manager for the Property or another designated representative of Seller. Seller agrees to make its manager or other representative reasonably available during normal business hours. All inspections shall occur at reasonable times agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser and shall be conducted so as not to unreasonably interfere with use of the Property by Seller or tenants of the Property. In no event shall Purchaser or its representatives perform any off-site testing. Purchaser will use its best efforts to minimize any disruption or interference caused by any such testing and will repair damage caused by such testing. Before and during Purchaser inspections, Purchaser and each Purchaser representative conducting any Purchaser inspection shall maintain workers’ compensation insurance in accordance with applicable law, and Purchaser, or the applicable Purchaser representative conducting any Purchaser inspection, shall maintain (a) commercial general liability insurance with limits of at least Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) for bodily or personal injury or death, (b) property damage insurance in the amount of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), and (c) contractual liability insurance. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller evidence of such workers’ compensation insurance and a certificate evidencing the commercial general liability, property damage and contractual liability insurance before conducting any Purchaser inspection on the Property. Each such insurance policy shall be written by a reputable insurance company having a rating of at least “A+: VII” by Best’s Rating Guide (or a comparable rating by a successor rating service), and shall otherwise be subject to Seller’s prior approval.
| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 5 |
3.3 Right of Termination Seller agrees that in the event Purchaser determines, in its sole discretion, that the Property is not suitable for its purposes, then Purchaser shall have the right (“Purchaser’s Termination Right”) to terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration date of the Inspection Period. Purchaser’s Termination Right shall be exercisable only by sending written notice of termination (the “Notice of Termination”) to Seller prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period. In the event that Purchaser timely exercises Purchaser’s Termination Right, this Agreement shall terminate and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to send Seller a Notice of Termination prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the Property Documents and the Property in all respects and Purchaser’s Termination Right shall automatically and irrevocably expire.
3.4 Payment of Certain Expenses Upon Termination. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that Purchaser exercises Purchaser’s Termination Right, Purchaser shall be responsible for payment of any escrow costs charged by the Title Company in connection with this Agreement. In addition, to the extent not already done, Purchaser will promptly restore the Property to its original condition if damaged or changed due to the tests and inspections performed by Purchaser, free of any mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or other encumbrances arising out of any of the inspections or tests, and will provide Seller, at no cost to Seller, with a copy of the results of any tests and inspections made by Purchaser, excluding any market and economic feasibility studies. The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
3.5 Indemnity and Release. Purchaser hereby indemnifies and agrees to defend and hold Seller and the Property harmless of and from any and all losses, liabilities, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of court), damages, liens, claims (including, without limitation, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens or claims of liens), actions and causes of action arising from or relating to Purchaser’s (or Purchaser’s agents, independent contractors, servants, employees or representatives) entering upon the Property to test, study, investigate or inspect the same or any part thereof, whether pursuant to Section 3.2 or otherwise, except to the extent arising solely from the negligence of Seller. Purchaser further waives and releases any claims, demands, damages, actions, causes of action or other remedies of any kind whatsoever against Seller for property damages or bodily and/or personal injuries to Purchaser, its agents, independent contractors, servants, employees and/or representatives arising out of the entry or use in any manner of the Property by any of the foregoing persons. The provisions of this Section 3.5 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement and are not subject to any liquidated damage limitation on remedies, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement.

ARTICLE IV
CLOSING
4.1 Time and Place. The consummation of the purchase and sale of the Property (“Closing”) shall take place at the office of the Escrow Agent, or, at Seller’s option, at the office of Seller’s outside counsel, on a date (the “Closing Date”) mutually agreed upon by the parties, but not later than August 15, 2012, provided however, that if the replatting of the real estate as described in the Xxxxx Road Data Center Agreement (as hereinafter defined) is not accomplished by such date, then the Closing shall occur on the fifth (5th) business day after such replatting is accomplished. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Closing occur later than December 31, 2012 due to the replatting not being completed, in which event this Agreement shall terminate without any further action or notice being required by either party and the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser. At Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall perform the obligations set forth in, respectively, Section 4.2 and Section 4.3 below, the performance of which obligations shall be concurrent conditions.

(f) deliver such other documents as may be reasonably required to close this transaction, duly executed where required.
4.4 Prorations. The following adjustments to the Purchase Price paid hereunder shall be made between Seller and Purchaser and shall be prorated (as applicable) on a per diem basis as if Purchaser owned the Property for the entire day on the Closing Date:
(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.4(i) below, all real estate taxes and installments of special assessments due and payable with respect to the calendar year of Closing shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at Closing. All other installments of special assessments not yet due and payable shall be paid by Purchaser. If at the time of Closing the tax rate or the assessed valuation for the current year has not yet been fixed, taxes shall be prorated based upon the tax rate and the assessed valuation established for the previous tax year; provided, however, that Seller and Purchaser agree that to the extent the actual taxes for the current year differ from the amount so apportioned at Closing, the parties hereto will make all necessary adjustments by appropriate payments between themselves following the Closing as soon a possible following Closing, and this provision shall survive Closing. Seller reserves the right to meet with governmental officials and to contest any reassessment concerning or affecting Seller's obligations under this Section 4.4(a).
(b) Current rents, advance rentals (but only to the extent actually received by Seller) and other income from the Property shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser at Closing based upon such amounts actually collected by Seller as of the Closing Date. Rent which is unpaid or delinquent as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated, but such unpaid or delinquent rent collected after the Closing Date shall be delivered as follows: (i) if Seller collects any unpaid or delinquent rent after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser any such rent relating to the Closing Date and any period thereafter within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof, and (ii) if Purchaser collects any unpaid or delinquent rent after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller any such rent relating to the period prior to the Closing Date within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof. Seller and Purchaser agree that (A) all rent received by Seller after the Closing Date shall be applied first to delinquent rentals, if any, in the order of their maturity, and then to current rentals, and (B) all rent received by Purchaser after the Closing Date shall be applied first to current rentals and then to delinquent rentals, if any, in inverse order of maturity. Purchaser will make a good faith effort after Closing to collect all rents (including without limitation the Pass-Through Expenses and percentage rents described in Section 4.4(c) below) in the usual course of Purchaser’s operation of the Property, but Purchaser will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or incur any expense to collect delinquent rents. In the event that there shall be any rents or other charges under any Leases which, although relating to a period prior to the Closing Date, do not become due and payable until on or after the Closing Date, then any rents or charges of such type received by Purchaser or its agents or Seller or its agents subsequent to the Closing Date shall, to the extent applicable to a period prior to the Closing Date, be prorated between Seller and Purchaser and Seller's portion thereof shall be remitted to Seller by Purchaser within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Seller shall not be required to prorate any amounts collected by Seller after Closing from former tenants of the Property, it being understood and agreed that Seller may retain all amounts that Seller recovers from such former tenants.
| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 8 |
(c) With respect to additional rent attributable to insurance, taxes, common area maintenance and other operating expenses which are passed through to tenants under the Leases (the “Pass Through Expenses”) and as of the Closing Date are unbilled or billed but not yet collected, Purchaser shall, upon collection of such Pass Through Expenses, remit to Seller an amount equal to that portion of Pass Through Expenses which accrued prior to the Closing Date. With respect to Pass Through Expenses which have not been billed to tenants as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall xxxx each tenant for same in accordance with each such tenant’s Lease. With respect to percentage rents based upon gross sales or other income generated by the business of a tenant located on the Property during a specified period of time (the “Applicable Period”), Purchaser shall, upon collection of such percentage rent, remit to Seller an amount equal to the product of the percentage rent so collected multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days which have elapsed in the Applicable Period prior to the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Applicable Period.
(d) Utilities and other customarily prorated expenses payable by Seller, including but not limited to water, sewer, gas, electricity, trash removal and fire protection service, and any Service Contracts to be transferred to and assumed by Purchaser, to the extent paid for by Seller or required to be paid for by Seller for a period after Closing, will be prorated as of the Closing Date. Other expenses relating to the Property up to the Closing Date and all periods prior thereto including those required by any Service Contracts which are not to be transferred and assumed by Purchaser will be paid for by Seller and Purchaser shall not be liable therefor. Seller will not assign to Purchaser, and Purchaser will not be entitled to, any deposits held by any utility company or other company servicing the Property; but rather such deposits will be returned to Seller and Purchaser will arrange and bear all responsibility to arrange with all utility companies to have accounts styled in Purchaser’s name beginning on the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section 4.4(d) shall survive the Closing.
(e) At the Closing, Seller will, at Seller’s option, either pay to Purchaser in cash the amount of any security deposits actually paid to or received by Seller under the Leases (and not as of the Closing Date returned to or forfeited by tenants under Leases) and any prepaid rentals actually paid to or received by Seller for periods subsequent to the Closing or provide a credit to Purchaser equal to the foregoing amounts; provided, however, non-refundable payments, deposits, or fees collected by Seller shall not be prorated. The provisions of this Section 4.4(e) shall survive the Closing
(f) Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of (i) all Tenant Inducement Costs (as hereinafter defined) and leasing commissions which become due and payable (whether before or after Closing) (A) as a result of any renewals or expansions of existing Leases which occur between the Effective Date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, and (B) under any new Leases (including any amendments of existing Leases) entered into between the Effective Date of this Agreement and the Closing Date which have been approved (or deemed approved) by Purchaser; and (ii) all Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions which become due and payable from and after the Closing Date. If as of the Closing Date Seller shall have paid any Tenant Inducement Costs or leasing commissions for which Purchaser is responsible pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller therefor at Closing. Seller shall supply invoices and statements for all such Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions to Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date. For purposes hereof, the term “Tenant Inducement Costs” means reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with the preparation and negotiation of a new Lease or a renewal or expansion of an existing Lease and any out-of-pocket payments required under a Lease to be paid by the landlord thereunder to or for the benefit of the tenant thereunder which is in the nature of a tenant inducement, including specifically, without limitation, tenant improvement costs, lease buyout costs, and moving, design, refurbishment and club membership allowances. The term “Tenant Inducement Costs” shall not include loss of income resulting from any free or reduced rental period, it being agreed that Seller shall bear the loss resulting from any free or reduced rental period until the Closing Date and that Purchaser shall bear such loss from and after the Closing Date.
| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 9 |
(g) Any prepaid items, including, without limitation fees for licenses which are transferred to the Purchaser at the Closing and annual permit and inspection fees shall be prorated as of the Closing. Any up-front fees or other non-recurring payment received by Seller prior to the Effective Date at the inception of the term of any telecommunications, laundry or other contract will not be prorated, may be retained by Seller and shall not be credited to Purchaser at Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no proration of Seller’s insurance premiums or assignment of Seller’s insurance policies. Purchaser shall be obligated (at its own election) to obtain any insurance coverage deemed necessary or appropriate by Purchaser.
(h) The Personal Property is included in this sale, without further charge, except that Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of any and all sales or similar taxes payable in connection with the Personal Property which is to be transferred to Purchaser under this Agreement and Purchaser shall execute and deliver any tax returns required of it in connection therewith, said obligations of Purchaser to survive Closing.
(i) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that the Property has only one tenant and such tenant is responsible for the payment of real property taxes under the terms of its Lease, then (i) real property taxes shall not be prorated at Closing, (ii) Seller shall credit to Purchaser at Closing any amount Seller has previously collected from such tenant to pay real property taxes, and (iii) Purchaser shall be responsible for payment of real property taxes and shall deal with such tenant in respect of real property taxes in accordance with such tenant’s Lease.

On or prior to the Closing Date, the Title Company shall deliver to Seller and Purchaser closing statements in the standard form in use in the State of Texas, which describe the prorations and adjustments required by this Agreement. If Seller and Purchaser cannot reasonably agree on the final closing statements to be executed by Seller and Purchaser and deposited at Closing with the Title Company because of a dispute over the prorations and adjustments required by this Agreement, then, so long as the amount in dispute is less than $10,000 in the aggregate, the Closing nevertheless shall occur, and the amount in dispute shall be withheld from the Sales Price and held in an escrow with the Title Company, to be paid out upon the joint direction of the parties or pursuant to court order upon resolution or other final determination of the dispute. The provisions of this Section 4.6 shall survive the Closing
4.7 Delivery of Documents.

The foregoing shall not include the separate books, records, correspondence and other documentation of Seller located at its offices, nor shall it include any computer software or computer programs used by the manager of the Property or Seller in connection with the Property, it being understood and agreed that the foregoing items are not part of the “Property” to be conveyed to Purchaser hereunder. After the Closing, Seller shall have the right to inspect the books and records of the Property to verify that Purchaser is remitting to Seller all amounts to be remitted to Seller according to the terms of this Agreement, and for any other purpose related to Seller’s prior ownership of the Property, and this provision shall survive Closing.

Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that Purchaser and XX Xxxxx entered into that certain Purchase Agreement of even date herewith (the “Xxxxx Road Data Center Agreement”) for property located in the City of Arlington, County of Tarrant, State of Texas, as more particularly described in the Xxxxx Road Data Center Agreement.

(j) Seller is not listed in Executive Order 13224 – Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons who Commit, Threaten to Commit or Support Terrorism, as amended (“Executive Order 13224”), and Seller has no present, actual knowledge that any other persons or entities holding any legal or beneficial interest whatsoever in Seller are included in, owned by, controlled by, knowingly acting for or on behalf of, knowingly providing assistance, support, sponsorship or services of any kind to, or otherwise knowingly associated with any of the persons or entities referred to or described in Executive Order 13224, or banned or blocked person, entity, nation or transaction pursuant to any law, order, rule or regulation that is enforced or administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
5.2 Notice of Breach.
(a) To the extent that, before the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser obtains actual knowledge or is deemed to know that Seller’s representations and warranties are inaccurate, untrue or incorrect in any way, such representations and warranties shall be deemed modified to reflect such actual or deemed knowledge as of the end of the Inspection Period. For purposes hereof, Purchaser shall be deemed to know all information set forth in the written materials delivered or made available to Purchaser in respect of the Property.
(b) If after the expiration of the Inspection Period but prior to the Closing, Purchaser first obtains actual knowledge that any of the representations or warranties made herein by Seller are untrue, inaccurate or incorrect in any material respect, Purchaser shall give Seller written notice thereof within five (5) days after obtaining such actual knowledge (but, in any event, prior to the Closing). In such event, Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation) to attempt to cure such misrepresentation or breach and shall, at its option, be entitled to a reasonable adjournments of the Closing (not to exceed thirty (30) days) for the purpose of such cure.

| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 13 |
5.3 Survival of Representations. It is the intent of Seller and Purchaser that the representations and warranties made by Seller in Section 5.1 above (the “Seller Obligations”) shall survive Closing for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of Closing (the “Survival Period”). Purchaser acknowledges that it is a sophisticated Purchaser who is familiar with the ownership and operation of real estate projects similar to the Property, and Purchaser and Seller have negotiated and agreed upon the length of the Survival Period as an adequate period of time for Purchaser to discover any and all facts that could give rise to a claim or cause of action for a breach of a representation. Upon expiration of the Survival Period, all representations contained in this Agreement will be deemed to have merged into the instruments of Closing and shall be of no further force or effect. Accordingly, Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any provision of law to the contrary, any action which may be brought under this Agreement by Purchaser against Seller for breach of any Seller Obligations shall be forever barred unless Purchaser (a) delivers to Seller no later than the expiration of the Survival Period a written notice of its claim setting forth in reasonable detail the factual basis for such claim and Purchaser’s good faith estimate of its damages arising out of such claim, and (b) files a complaint or petition against Seller alleging such claim in an appropriate state or federal court in Dallas County, Texas, no later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the expiration of the Survival Period. In no event shall Seller be liable after the date of Closing for its breach of any Seller Obligations if such breach was actually known to Purchaser prior to the completion of Closing. Time is of the essence with respect to the foregoing time periods. With respect to any matter constituting breach of a Seller Obligation, Purchaser shall first seek any available recovery under any insurance policies, assigned Service Contracts, warranties and Leases prior to seeking recovery from Seller, and Seller shall not be liable to Purchaser if Purchaser’s claim is satisfied from such insurance policies, Service Contracts, warranties, or Leases. Seller’s liability for breach of any Seller Obligations shall be limited as follows: (i) Seller shall have liability for breach of Seller Obligations only if the valid claims for all such breaches collectively aggregate more than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), in which event the full amount of such claims shall be actionable (Purchaser hereby waiving any right to seek to recover any damages of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) or less), and (ii) Seller’s aggregate liability to Purchaser for breaches of the Seller Obligations shall not exceed the amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (the “Cap”), it being agreed that in no event shall Seller’s aggregate liability for such breaches exceed the amount of the Cap. Purchaser agrees that, with respect to any alleged breach of representations of Seller under this Agreement discovered after the expiration of the Survival Period, the maximum liability of Seller for all such alleged breaches is limited to $100. The provisions of this Section 5.3 shall survive Closing to the extent expressly provided in this Section.
5.4 Covenants of Seller. Seller hereby covenants as follows:
(a) Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall maintain the Property in its present condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted;
(b) Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall maintain all casualty, liability and hazard insurance currently in force with respect to the Property; and
(c) Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall lease, operate, manage and enter into contracts with respect to the Property, in the same manner done by Seller prior to the date hereof, maintaining present services and sufficient supplies and equipment for the operation and maintenance of the Property in the same manner as prior to the date hereof; provided, however, that Seller shall not enter into any service contract that cannot be terminated within thirty (30) days notice. Seller shall terminate, by giving notice at Closing, any Service Contracts that may by their terms be terminated and which Purchaser elects not to assume (which election shall be made in writing by Purchaser to Seller on or prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period), provided that Purchaser shall be responsible for any termination fees incurred in connection with the same if such fees were set forth in the Service Contracts made available by Seller for review by Purchaser or otherwise disclosed in writing to Purchaser and Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved and shall have no right not to elect to assume those Service Contracts that, by their terms, cannot be terminated by Seller without the payment of a penalty, termination fee, or other charge that is not paid by Purchaser The property management agreement in effect with respect to the Property and any Service Contract that is not delivered to Purchaser, shall be deemed to be rejected by Purchaser and Seller shall, at Seller’s expense, terminate such property management agreement as it effects the Property and any undelivered Service Contracts effective not later than the Closing Date.
| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 14 |
(d) A copy of each Lease presented to Seller between the expiration of the Inspection Period and the Closing Date for its approval and execution will be submitted to Purchaser prior to execution by Seller. Purchaser agrees to notify Seller in writing within five (5) business days after its receipt of each such Lease of either its approval or disapproval thereof, including all Tenant Inducement Costs and leasing commissions to be incurred in connection therewith. In the event Purchaser informs Seller that Purchaser does not approve any such Lease, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, Seller shall have the option to cancel this Agreement by written notice thereof to Purchaser within five (5) business days after Seller’s receipt of written notice of Purchaser’s disapproval of any such Lease, and upon refund and payment of the Xxxxxxx Money to Purchaser, neither party shall have any further liability or obligation hereunder. In the event Purchaser fails to notify Seller in writing of its approval or disapproval of any such Lease within the five-day period for such purpose set forth above, such failure shall be deemed the approval by Purchaser of such Lease. At Closing, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for any Tenant Inducement Costs or leasing commissions incurred by Seller pursuant to a new Lease approved (or deemed approved) by Purchaser..
5.5 Seller’s Knowledge. As used in this Agreement, all references to “Seller’s Knowledge” or “actual knowledge” of Seller, or similar qualifications means the current actual knowledge of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx (the “Seller Representative”) without any investigation or inquiry and without regard to the knowledge of any former or other employees, agents or contractors of Seller. The Seller Representative shall not have any personal liability whatsoever for the representations made herein or for any other matters relating to this Agreement. Purchaser acknowledges that the Seller Representative’s current actual knowledge regarding the foregoing matters (including, without limitation, any environmental matters) may be limited.
5.6 Covenants of Purchaser. Purchaser hereby covenants as follows:
(a) During the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall obtain a “Phase I” environmental report prepared for and at the expense of Purchaser with respect to the Property by an environmental consultant selected by Purchaser.
(b) If requested to do so by Seller in writing, at Closing (or upon termination of this Agreement prior to Closing), Purchaser shall deliver to Seller copies of any environmental reports, engineering reports, structural reports or other due diligence materials prepared by third parties obtained by Purchaser with respect to the Property.
(c) Purchaser is currently in compliance with, and shall at all times during the term of this Agreement (including any extension thereof) remain in compliance with, the regulations of OFAC and any statute, executive order (including the September 24, 2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism), or other governmental action relating thereto.
| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 15 |
5.7 Tenant Estoppel. Seller shall use reasonable efforts to obtain an estoppel certificate, in form substantially in accordance with Exhibit J attached hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes, as such form may be replaced or modified to reflect the requirements under the tenant’s lease and subject to non-material exceptions, qualifications or modifications (the “Estoppel Certificate”), executed by Internap Network Services Corporation, a Delaware corporation; provided, however, that if Seller is unable to procure such Estoppel Certificate prior to Closing, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement and receive the return of the Xxxxxxx Money, or may, upon mutual agreement with Seller, extend the Closing Date to afford Seller additional time to obtain such Estoppel Certificate.
5.8 Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller, which representations and warranties shall be deemed made by Purchaser to Seller as of the Effective Date and also as of the Closing Date, that Purchaser has the full right, power and authority to purchase the Property as provided in this Agreement and to carry out Purchaser’s obligations hereunder, and that all requisite action necessary to authorize Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and to carry out Purchaser’s obligations hereunder has been taken and this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other laws of general application relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights and by general principles of equity. Purchaser is not listed in Executive Order 13224 – Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons who Commit, Threaten to Commit or Support Terrorism, as amended (“Executive Order 13224”), and Purchaser has no present, actual knowledge that any other persons or entities holding any legal or beneficial interest whatsoever in Purchaser are included in, owned by, controlled by, knowingly acting for or on behalf of, knowingly providing assistance, support, sponsorship or services of any kind to, or otherwise knowingly associated with any of the persons or entities referred to or described in Executive Order 13224, or banned or blocked person, entity, nation or transaction pursuant to any law, order, rule or regulation that is enforced or administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any breach by Purchaser of any of the foregoing representations or warranties shall constitute a default by Purchaser hereunder, and Seller may thereupon, at its option, terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money will be paid to Seller as liquidated damages, and neither Purchaser nor Seller shall have any further rights or liabilities hereunder, except as otherwise provided herein.
5.9 Use of Property. Seller has not claimed the benefit of laws permitting a special use valuation for the purposes of payment of ad valorem taxes on the Property. If a previous owner claimed such benefit and, after the purchase is closed, Purchaser changes the use of the Property from its present use and the same results in the assessment of additional taxes, such additional taxes will be the obligation of the Purchaser, notwithstanding that some or all of such additional taxes may relate back to the period prior to Closing.
ARTICLE VI
DEFAULT; REMEDIES
6.1 Default of Purchaser. In the event Purchaser fails to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement for any reason except failure by Seller to perform hereunder or the permitted termination hereof by Purchaser or Seller in accordance with the express provisions hereof, Seller shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, to terminate this Agreement and recover the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, in full satisfaction of claims against Purchaser hereunder. Seller and Purchaser agree that Seller’s damages resulting from Purchaser’s default are difficult, if not impossible, to determine and that the Xxxxxxx Money is a fair estimate of those damages which has been agreed to in an effort to cause the amount of said damages to be certain. Upon such payment of the Xxxxxxx Money, this Agreement shall terminate and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, other than as set forth herein in the following sentence and with respect to rights or obligations which survive termination; all other remedies being herein expressly waived by Seller. In the event of Purchaser’s default and notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.1 to the contrary, Seller shall have all remedies available at law or in equity in the event Purchaser or any party related to or affiliated with Purchaser is asserting any claims or right to the Property that would otherwise delay or prevent Seller from having clear, indefeasible and marketable title to the Property.
| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 16 |
6.2 Default of Seller. If the transaction contemplated hereby is not consummated by reason of Seller’s breach or other failure to timely perform all obligations and conditions to be performed by Seller, or a breach prior to Closing of Seller’s covenants, representations or warranties under this Agreement, then Purchaser may, as its sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law or in equity), either (i) terminate this Agreement and receive the return of the Xxxxxxx Money from the Escrow Agent; and, thereafter, neither party shall have any further rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, other than as set forth herein with respect to rights or obligations which survive termination, or (ii) enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder; all other remedies being herein expressly waived by Purchaser. Unless Purchaser has filed an action for specific performance, and such action is pending, Purchaser shall not have the right or authority to place a lis pendens against any portion of the Property, and Purchaser hereby waives and releases any right it may have under applicable law to file any lis pendens absent such pending action.
6.3 Post-Closing Remedies. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2 above, in the event that after the termination of this Agreement or after Closing, as the case may be, a party (the “Defaulting Party”) breaches an obligation hereunder which is expressly stated herein to survive the termination of this Agreement or Closing, as the case may be, the Defaulting Party shall be liable to the other party (the “Non-Defaulting Party”) for the direct, actual damages incurred by the Non-Defaulting Party as a direct result of such breach. In no event shall the Non-Defaulting Party be entitled to recover from the Defaulting Party any punitive, exemplary, consequential or speculative damages.
ARTICLE VII
RISK OF LOSS
7.1 Minor Damage. In the event of loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof (the “premises in question”) which is not “major” (as hereinafter defined), this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect provided Seller, at Seller’s option, (i) performs any necessary repairs; (ii) credits Purchaser in the amount of the applicable insurance deductible against the Purchase Price and assigns to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question; or (iii) reduces the cash portion of the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the cost of such repairs, Seller thereby retaining all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question. In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs.
7.2 Major Damage. In the event of a “major” loss or damage, either Seller or Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other party, in which event the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned to Purchaser. If neither Seller nor Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) days after Seller sends Purchaser written notice of the occurrence of major loss or damage, then Seller and Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with Closing, in which event Seller shall, at Seller’s option, either (a) perform any necessary repairs, or (b) credit Purchaser in the amount of the applicable insurance deductible against the Purchase Price and assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question. In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs. Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser. For purposes of Sections 7.1 and 7.2, “major” loss or damage refers to the following: (i) loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof such that the cost of repairing or restoring the premises in question to a condition substantially identical to that of the premises in question prior to the event of damage would be, based on the Seller’s insurance adjuster’s assessment, equal to or greater than ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price; and (ii) any loss due to a condemnation which permanently and materially impairs the current use of the Property.
| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 17 |
7.3 Uniform Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act Not Applicable. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the provisions of Sections 7.1 and 7.2 govern the rights of the parties in the event of damage to or condemnation of the Property and that the Uniform Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act (Section 5.007 of the Texas Property Code) not apply to this Agreement.

As a material covenant and condition of this Agreement, Purchaser agrees that in the event of any such construction defects, errors, omissions or on account of any other conditions affecting the Property, Purchaser will look solely to Seller’s predecessors in title or to such contractors and consultants as may have contracted for work in connection with the Property for any redress or relief. Upon the assignment by Seller of its claims, Purchaser releases Seller of all rights, express or implied, Purchaser may have against Seller arising out of or resulting from any errors, omissions or defects in the Property. Purchaser further understands that some of Seller’s predecessors in title may have filed petitions under the bankruptcy code and Purchaser may have no remedy against such predecessors, contractors or consultants. This waiver and release of claims shall survive the Closing and shall not merge into the instruments of Closing.

8.3 Waivers of Deceptive Trade Practices Act. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its assigns and successors, that the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices — Consumer Protection Act, Subchapter E of Chapter 17 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code (the “DTPA”), is not applicable to this transaction. Accordingly, Purchaser’s rights and remedies with respect to this transaction, and with respect to all acts or practices of the other, past, present or future, in connection with this transaction, shall be governed by legal principles other than the DTPA. In furtherance thereof, Purchaser agrees as follows:
(a) Purchaser represents that it is a business consumer and that it seeks to acquire by purchase or lease the goods or services that are the subject of this Agreement for commercial or business use. Purchaser further represents that it has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that enable it to evaluate the merits and risks of the business transaction that is the subject of this Agreement. Purchaser also represents that it is not in a significantly disparate bargaining position in relation to Seller.
(b) Purchaser represents that it has been represented by legal counsel in seeking or acquiring the goods or services that are the subject of this Agreement and that the transaction contemplated by this Agreement does not involve the purchase or lease of a family residence occupied or to be occupied as the residence of Purchaser. Purchaser shall cause its legal counsel to sign this Agreement in the space provided below for the purpose of complying with Section 17.42(a)(3) of the DTPA.
(c) Purchaser agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its assigns and successors, that all of its rights and remedies under the DTPA are WAIVED AND RELEASED, including specifically, without limitation, all rights and remedies resulting from or arising out of any and all acts or practices of Seller in connection with this transaction, whether such acts or practices occur before or after the execution of this Agreement; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in accordance with Section 17.42 of the DTPA, Purchaser does not waive Section 17.555 of the DTPA.

8.4 Effect and Survival of Disclaimers. Seller has informed Purchaser that the compensation to be paid to Seller for the Property has been decreased to take into account that the Property is being sold subject to the provisions of this Article VIII. Seller and Purchaser agree that the provisions of this Article VIII shall survive Closing.
ARTICLE IX
MISCELLANEOUS
9.1 Broker. Seller and Purchaser represent each to the other that each has had no dealings with any broker, finder or other party concerning Purchaser’s purchase of the Property except CBRE, Inc. (“Broker”). If (and only if) the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement is consummated, Seller shall pay a commission to Broker pursuant to a separate written agreement between Seller and Broker. Seller and Purchaser each hereby agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from all loss, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by the other as a result of any claim arising out of the acts of the indemnifying party (or others on its behalf) for a commission, finder’s fee or similar compensation made by any broker, finder or any party who claims to have dealt with such party except Broker. The foregoing representations and warranties contained in this Section 9.1 shall survive the Closing. The Texas Real Estate License Act requires written notice to Purchaser that it should have an attorney examine an abstract of title to the property being purchased or obtain a title insurance policy. Notice to that effect is, therefore, hereby given to Purchaser.
9.2 ERISA. Purchaser represents that Purchaser is not an employee benefit plan or a governmental plan or a party in interest of either such a plan, and that the funds being used to acquire the Property are not plan assets or subject to state laws regulating investments of and fiduciary obligations with respect to a governmental plan. As used herein, the terms “employee benefit plan,” “party in interest,” “plan assets” and “governmental plan” shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in ERISA, and the term “ERISA” shall mean the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the regulations promulgated in connection therewith. Upon the request of Seller, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller at Closing a certificate stating that the foregoing representations are true and correct and containing an agreement by Purchaser to indemnify Seller against any inaccuracy in such representations. The foregoing covenants shall survive Closing.
9.3 Assignability. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement to anyone other than a Permitted Assignee (as hereinafter defined) without first obtaining Seller’s written approval which may be given or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 9.3, Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement to a Permitted Assignee without the prior written consent of Seller. In the event that Purchaser desires to assign its rights under this Agreement to a Permitted Assignee, Purchaser shall send written notice to Seller at least five (5) business days prior to the effective date of such assignment stating the name and, if applicable, the constituent persons or entities of the Permitted Assignee. Such assignment shall not become effective until such Permitted Assignee executes an instrument reasonably satisfactory to Seller in form and substance whereby the Permitted Assignee expressly assumes each of the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement, including specifically, without limitation, all obligations concerning the Xxxxxxx Money. No assignment shall release or otherwise relieve Purchaser from any obligations hereunder. For purposes of this Section 9.3, the term “Permitted Assignee” shall mean an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall not have the right to assign this Agreement to any assignee which, in the reasonable judgment of Seller, will cause the transaction contemplated hereby or any party thereto to violate the requirements of ERISA or Purchaser’s representations and warranties made herein. In order to enable Seller to make such determination, Purchaser shall cause to be delivered to Seller such information as is requested by Seller with respect to a proposed assignee and the constituent persons or entities of any proposed assignee, including specifically, without limitation, any pension or profit sharing plans related thereto.
| PURCHASE AGREEMENT | Page 21 |
9.4 Confidentiality. The information supplied to or made available to Purchaser by Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall not be released or disclosed to any other parties unless and until this transaction has closed without the prior written consent of Seller, except as required by applicable law. Seller shall not withhold its consent to disclosure of such information to Purchaser’s attorney, third parties engaged by Purchaser for the limited purpose of analyzing and investigating such information for the purpose of consummating the transaction, including engineers, accountants and financial advisors, or to any prospective lender. In the event that this transaction is not closed for any reason, then (a) Purchaser shall refrain, and shall cause its agents, representatives, contractors and accountants to refrain, from disclosing all such information to any other party, (b) Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller any statements, documents, schedules, exhibits or other written information obtained from Seller in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated herein, and (c) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, the covenant set forth in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) shall survive any termination of this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that, with respect to any provision of this Agreement which refers to the termination of this Agreement and the return of the Xxxxxxx Money to Purchaser, such Xxxxxxx Money shall not be returned to Purchaser unless and until Purchaser has fulfilled its obligation to return to Seller the materials described in clause (b) of the preceding sentence. In no event shall Purchaser issue any press releases prior to or in connection with the Closing regarding any of the terms contained herein or the transactions contemplated herein without the consent of Seller. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Purchaser or its agents or representatives of this Section 9.4, Seller shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Purchaser or its agents or representatives from disclosing, in whole or in part, such confidential information. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Seller from pursuing any other available remedy at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach. The provisions of this Section 9.4 will survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement and are not subject to any liquidated damage limitation on remedies, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement.
