The Deposit shall be allocated among the Properties as set forth on Schedule B-1 hereto (such allocated amount with respect to each Property, hereinafter the “Allocated Deposit”). The Deposit shall be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 1.2(b) below. Interest earned on the Deposit shall be treated as income to PRLP for federal income tax purposes. Upon expiration of the Due Diligence Period, if PRLP has not terminated this Agreement in accordance with Article XI, the Deposit shall be held for the benefit of Landmark and be nonrefundable except in the event of a Landmark default or failure to satisfy any condition to close or in the case the funds are returned to PRLP pursuant to Section 1.2(b) below.
(b)Escrow Agent shall hold the Deposit, together with all interest earned thereon, in its interest bearing, federally insured escrow account, in accordance with the following:
(i)Escrow Agent shall hold the Deposit, together with all interest earned thereon, in Escrow Agent’s escrow account at a bank that is acceptable to each of the Parties (“Escrow Bank”), and shall cause the Deposit to earn interest at Escrow Bank’s then prevailing insured money market rates on deposits of similar size.
2
Escrow Agent shall have no liability for any fluctuations in the interest rate paid by Escrow Bank on the Deposit, and is not a guarantor thereof. Escrow Agent shall not be liable or responsible for and has no liability in the event of failure, insolvency, or inability of Escrow Bank to pay said funds for any failure, refusal or inability of Escrow Bank into which the Deposit is deposited to pay the Deposit at Escrow Agent’s direction, or for levies by taxing authorities based upon the taxpayer identification number used to establish this interest bearing account. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any interest except for such interest as is actually received (which interest received shall be added to and considered part of the Deposit), nor shall Escrow Agent be responsible for the loss of any interest arising from the closing of any account or the sale of any certificate of deposit or other instrument prior to maturity.
(ii)If Escrow Agent receives a written notice signed by each of Landmark and PRLP stating that the Closing has occurred (the “Escrow Release Notice”) and designating the Person or Persons that are entitled to receive the Deposit, Escrow Agent shall deliver the portion of the Deposit identified in such Escrow Release Notice, together with the interest earned thereon, to an account designated in such notice or otherwise by Landmark. If Escrow Agent receives a written notice signed by each of Landmark and PRLP that this Agreement has been terminated or canceled as to any Property, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Allocated Deposit for such Property which is then held by Escrow Agent, together with the interest thereon, as directed therein. If Escrow Agent receives a written notice signed by each of Landmark and PRLP that this Agreement has been terminated or canceled in its entirety, Escrow Agent shall deliver the entire balance of the Deposit then held by Escrow Agent, together with the interest thereon, as directed therein.
(iii) If Escrow Agent receives a written request signed by PRLP or Landmark (the “Noticing Party”) stating that this Agreement has been canceled or terminated (or has been cancelled or terminated with respect to any one or more Properties) and that the Noticing Party is entitled to the Deposit (or for a termination with respect to only certain of the Properties, that the Noticing Party is entitled to the Allocated Deposit with respect to such Properties) then held by Escrow Agent, Escrow Agent shall send a copy of such request to the other party hereto (the “Non-Noticing Party”) in accordance with the notice provisions contained in this Agreement. The Non-Noticing Party shall have the right to object to such request for the Deposit (or applicable portion thereof) by written notice of objection delivered to and received by Escrow Agent within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such copy by the Non-Noticing Party from Escrow Agent, but not thereafter. If Escrow Agent shall not have so received a written notice of objection from the Non-Noticing Party, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit (or applicable portion thereof), together with the interest earned thereon, to the Noticing Party. If Escrow Agent shall have received a written notice of objection within the time herein prescribed, Escrow Agent shall refuse to comply with any requests or demands on it and shall continue to hold the Deposit, together with any interest earned thereon, until Escrow Agent receives either (x) a written notice signed by both Landmark and PRLP stating who is entitled to the Deposit (or applicable portion thereof) (and interest thereon) or (y) a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction directing disbursement of the Deposit (or applicable portion thereof) (and
3
interest thereon), in a specific manner, in either of which events Escrow Agent shall then disburse the Deposit (or applicable portion thereof), together with the interest earned thereon, in accordance with such notice or order. Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way or to any person or entity for its refusal to comply with any such requests or demands until and unless it has received a direction of the nature described in clauses (x) or (y) immediately above.
(c)Any notice to Escrow Agent shall be sufficient only if received by Escrow Agent within the applicable time period set forth herein. All mailings and notices from Escrow Agent to Landmark and/or PRLP, or from Landmark and/or PRLP to Escrow Agent, provided for in this Section shall be addressed to the party to receive such notice at its notice address set forth in this Agreement (with copies to be similarly sent to the additional persons therein indicated).
(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Escrow Agent shall have received a written notice of objection as provided for in Section 1.2(b)(iii) above within the time therein prescribed, or shall have received at any time before actual disbursement of the Deposit (or applicable portion thereof), a written notice signed by either Landmark or PRLP disputing entitlement to the Deposit (or applicable portion thereof) or, shall otherwise believe in good faith at any time that a disagreement or dispute has arisen between the Parties hereto over entitlement to the Deposit, (whether or not litigation has been instituted), Escrow Agent shall have the right, upon written notice to Landmark and PRLP, (x) to deposit the Deposit (or applicable portion thereof), together with the interest earned thereon, with the Clerk of the Court in which any litigation is pending and/or (y) to take such reasonable affirmative steps as it may, at its option, elect in order to terminate its duties as Escrow Agent, including depositing the balance of the Deposit, together with the interest earned thereon, with a court of competent jurisdiction and the commencement of an action for interpleader, the costs thereof to be borne by whichever of Landmark or PRLP is the losing party, and thereupon Escrow Agent shall be released of and from all liability hereunder except for any previous gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(e)Escrow Agent is acting hereunder without charge as an accommodation to PRLP and Landmark, it being understood and agreed that Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any act done or omitted by it in good faith or pursuant to court order, or for any mistake of fact or law. Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability in acting upon any document or instrument believed thereby to be genuine. Escrow Agent is hereby released and exculpated from all liability hereunder, except only for willful misconduct or gross negligence. Escrow Agent may in good faith assume that any person purporting to give it any notice on behalf of any party has been authorized to do so. Escrow Agent shall not be liable for, and PRLP and Landmark hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify Escrow Agent against, any loss, liability or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of any dispute under this Agreement, including the reasonable cost and expense of defending itself against any claim arising hereunder, except to the extent of Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that PRLP and Landmark agree, solely as between themselves that all such amounts shall be paid one-half by PRLP and one-half by Landmark. The terms and provisions of this Section 1.2 shall survive the Closing and/or termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.7Removal of Properties.
(a)The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for as many Properties as possible at the Closing.

(b)If the terms and conditions of this Agreement permit Landmark to designate a Property as a Kick-Out Property (each such Property, a “Kick-Out Property”), without limiting any other obligations set forth in this Agreement, Landmark shall be permitted to designate a Property as a Kick-Out Property at any time prior to the Closing Date in writing if, but only if, any fact or circumstance that permits such Property to be designated as a Kick-Out Property is, in Landmark’s reasonable good faith determination upon consultation with PRLP, unlikely to be remedied following Landmark’s commercially reasonable efforts to do so.
(c)In the event a Property is designated as a Kick-Out Property on the terms hereof, the Parties shall reasonably negotiate and cooperate in good faith to determine whether any adjustments or modifications, in addition to the adjustments to the Transaction Value and the Deposit amount based, respectively, on the Allocated Transaction Value and Allocated Deposit for such Kick-Out Property, as set forth in Section 2.7(a) above, would need to be made in order for the Parties to accommodate such Kick-Out Property, including in each case with

If necessary, the Parties shall negotiate and implement in good faith any amendments, revisions or modifications to this Agreement and any applicable schedules and exhibits, to take into account the designation of any Property as a Kick-Out Property and therefore exclusion of such Property from the transactions contemplated herein.
(d)If, at any time prior to Closing, the aggregate net operating income of all Kick-Out Properties, combined, equals or exceeds forty percent (40%) of the net operating income of all Properties, combined, as of the Effective Date, then either Party shall have the right to terminate, in its sole and absolute discretion, this Agreement in its entirety, and, in such event PRLP shall be entitled to receive a return of the balance of the Deposit, together with any and all accrued interest thereon, and, so long as the aggregate net operating income of all Kick-Out Properties (other than any Properties designated as Kick-Out Properties by PRLP under Section 5.5), combined, equals or exceeds forty percent (40%) of the net operating income of all Properties, combined, as of the Effective Date, reimbursement of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by PRLP in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement up to a maximum of $1,000,000.00 upon delivery to Landmark of reasonable back-up documentation of such costs and expenses; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall PRLP be entitled to receive the Liquidated Damages Amount or any other liquidated damages in connection with any termination of this Agreement under this Section 2.7(d).

If Landmark shall fail to timely give Landmark’s Response Notice, Landmark shall be deemed to have elected to not cure such Title Objections. In the event Landmark elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure any of the Title Objections, then PRLP shall notify Landmark and Title Company, within five (5) days following receipt of Landmark’s Response Notice (or the expiration of the deadline for the giving of Landmark’s Response Notice, if Landmark fails to timely give Landmark’s Response Notice), of PRLP’s election, in its sole and absolute discretion, either to (i) to terminate this Agreement as to the Property encumbered by such Title Objection (but not as to any other Property), in which event the Allocated Deposit for such Property shall be returned to PRLP, such Property shall be designated as a Kick-Out Property, and the Parties shall have no further obligations or liabilities under this Agreement with respect to such Property only (other than the Surviving Obligations) or (ii) to waive its objection to the Title Objections that Landmark either refused to cure, or could not cure, and to proceed to Closing (with no adjustment to the Transaction Value or any liability or obligation on the part of Landmark by reason of such Title Objections).

(regardless of cause) (in each case so long as such removal is consistent with the Transaction Steps): (i) any mortgage placed on the Property by Landmark, including, without limitation, any assignment of leases and rents, UCC-1 financing statement or other similar document relating to such mortgage to the extent not contemplated by Article II to remain of record following Closing, (ii) mechanics’ liens for work performed at Landmark’s request (excluding any mechanics’ liens for work performed by, on behalf of, or at the request of, any tenant), judgments against Landmark, any Tax liens other than liens described in Section 5.4(e)(B) and other involuntary liens, and (iii) any other matter of record which does not constitute a Permitted Liens so long as (1) such removal or discharge can reasonably be expected to be accomplished within a period of sixty (60) days beyond the date scheduled for the Closing and (2) the sum of money required to accomplish such removal or discharge does not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate.
(e)Prior to Closing, PRLP shall have the right to order updates to the Initial Title Commitments and/or Existing Surveys and in the event that any such update reveals any new matter not previously shown or disclosed on the Initial Title Commitments or Existing Surveys which (i) in the aggregate with any other new matter, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the use or value of any individual Property, or (ii) may be removed or cured by the payment of a readily ascertainable amount (each, a “New Title Matter”), PRLP shall have the right to object, in writing and in its reasonable discretion, to such New Title Matter within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such update, as applicable (which period may extend beyond the Scheduled Closing Date, or any other proposed Closing Date, and PRLP shall have the right to extend the Closing Date, if necessary, in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.4), with any notice specifying any New Title Matter to which PRLP objects (such notice being referred to herein as the “Updated Title Objection Notice”). The failure of PRLP to object to any New Title Matter within said ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed a waiver by PRLP of its right to object to such New Title Matter and, in such event, such New Title Matter shall be deemed approved by PRLP and shall be a Permitted Lien. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PRLP shall not have the right to disapprove any of the following, all of which (together with all other matters deemed approved by PRLP pursuant to terms hereof) shall be deemed to be Permitted Liens hereunder: (A) matters created, or consented to in a separate written consent, by PRLP, (B) all Liens for Taxes, assessments, water rates, water meter charges, water frontage charges and sewer Taxes, rents and charges, if any, provided that such items are not due and payable (or are being contested in good faith pursuant to appropriate proceedings), (C) any matter reflected in any Initial Title Commitments or Existing Surveys to the extent not objected to by PRLP in the Title Objection Notice or waived by PRLP under Section 5.4(c), (D) the Liens of the Existing Debt and Existing Mezzanine Debt to the extent contemplated to remain in effect after Closing by Article II, (E) with respect to Leased Properties, the Ground Lease and the rights of the ground lessor thereunder, (F) the rights of the tenants under the Tenant Leases or the rights of any other occupants of the Property, (G) any Applicable Laws (including those related to building, zoning and land use) affecting the development, use, occupancy or enjoyment of any portion of the Real Property, to the extent not violated by the current use, occupancy and enjoyment of the Real Property, and (H) the standard preprinted exceptions to each Title Policy. If PRLP delivers an Updated Title Objection Notice to Landmark within the above-described ten (10) Business Day period, Landmark shall have the Landmark Response Period in which to send PRLP an updated Landmark’s Response Notice informing PRLP of which New Title Matters Landmark will agree to cure prior to the Closing Date (as the same may be extended as provided herein). If Landmark fails to deliver an updated Landmark’s Response Notice to PRLP on
27
or before the expiration of the Landmark Response Period, Landmark shall be deemed to have refused to cure such New Title Matter. The Closing Date may be extended by PRLP or Landmark to accommodate the notice and cure periods contemplated herein, provided that the Closing Date shall not be extended by Landmark for a period of more than forty-five (45) days for the purposes of Landmark curing any New Title Matter to which PRLP has objected and which Landmark have informed PRLP they have agreed to cure. If Landmark is unable after using commercially reasonable efforts during such period to cure any such New Title Matter, Landmark shall be deemed to have refused to cure such New Title Matter. If Landmark refuses (or is deemed to have refused) to cure any New Title Matter set forth in the Updated Title Objection Notice, PRLP shall have ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the updated Landmark’s Response Notice (or, if Landmark has not responded to the Title Objection Notice, then within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of the Landmark Response Period) in which to advise Landmark in writing of PRLP’s election (x) to waive its objection to the New Title Matters that Landmark either refused to cure, or could not cure, and to proceed to Closing (with no adjustment to the Transaction Value or any liability or obligation on the part of Landmark by reason of such New Title Matters) or (y) to terminate this Agreement as to the Property encumbered by such New Title Matter (but not as to any other Property), in which event the Allocated Deposit for such Property shall be returned to PRLP, such Property shall be designated as a Kick-Out Property, and the Parties shall have no further obligations or liabilities under this Agreement with respect to such Property only (other than the Surviving Obligations); provided, however, the Parties’ obligations and liabilities with respect to the other Properties shall not be affected and remain outstanding following such termination. If PRLP does not terminate this Agreement as to the applicable Property pursuant to the preceding sentence, then all New Title Matters appearing in the Title Objection Notice that Landmark either did not agree to cure (as set forth in the updated Landmark’s Response Notice) or could not cure prior to Closing shall be deemed Permitted Liens. PRLP agrees that Landmark may cure any objectionable matter, including any Title Objection or New Title Matter, by causing the Title Company to remove the same as an exception in the applicable Title Policy or to affirmatively insure over such matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any monetary Lien that, may be removed by the payment of a readily ascertainable amount and that is included in any Title Objection Notice or Updated Title Objection Notice, Landmark shall be obligated to remove the same at or prior to Closing, provided that if such Lien(s) is not the result of any affirmative act of any Landmark Group Party, Landmark shall have no obligation (but may elect in their sole and absolute discretion) to pay any amount in excess of $500,000, in the aggregate, in connection therewith but shall be obligated, if directed by PRLP in its sole discretion, to cause the Title Company to affirmatively insure over such matter. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Landmark agrees in any Landmark’s Response Notice to cure any New Title Matter objected to by PRLP in any Title Objection Notice and nonetheless fail to so cure any such New Title Matter on or before the Closing Date, PRLP shall have the right to either (1) waive its objection to the New Title Matters that Landmark shall fail to cure and proceed to Closing (with no adjustment to the Transaction Value or any liability or obligation on the part of Landmark by reason of such New Title Matters) or (2) terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property, in which event the Allocated Deposit for the Property encumbered by such New Title Matter shall be returned to PRLP, such Property shall be designated as a Kick-Out Property, and the Parties shall have no further obligations or liabilities under this Agreement with respect to such Property (other than the Surviving Obligations); provided, however, the Parties’ obligations and liabilities
28
with respect to the other Properties shall not be affected and remain outstanding following such termination.
(f)The title insurance policy issued in connection with the Closing shall insure the leasehold interest (with respect to Leased Properties) or fee simple interest (with respect to the Riverside Fee Owned Property) of the applicable Project Company in the Real Property the current ALTA Form, issued by the Title Company, subject to only the Permitted Liens and including extended coverage over the standard preprinted exceptions (each a “Title Policy” and collectively the “Title Policies”). PRLP shall be entitled to request that the Title Company provide endorsements to the Title Policies as PRLP may reasonably require, provided that (i) such endorsements shall be at no cost to, and shall impose no additional liability on, Landmark, (ii) PRLP’s obligations under this Agreement shall not be conditioned upon its ability to obtain such endorsements and, if PRLP is unable to obtain such endorsements, PRLP shall nevertheless be obligated to proceed to close the transactions contemplated hereby without reduction of or set off against the Transaction Value, and (iii) the Closing shall not be delayed as a result of PRLP’s request. Any modifications to the Existing Surveys shall be paid for by PRLP and shall not be a condition to the obligation of PRLP to close the transactions contemplated hereby. Landmark shall (or shall cause the applicable Project Company to) and PRLP shall execute customary affidavits, gap indemnities and other instruments, in forms reasonably agreed by the party(ies) thereto, as reasonably requested by the Title Company to cause the Title Company to issue the Title Policies. Except as set forth herein, each Party shall be responsible for the costs of the Title Policies and endorsements thereto in accordance the provisions of Section 10.9.
Section 5.5Due Diligence Termination Right. PRLP shall have the right at any time on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (the “Due Diligence Termination Date”) at PRLP’s election, in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate this Agreement with respect to any Property if PRLP determines in good faith that all or any portion of such Property (each such Property, an “Objectionable Property”) is not acceptable to PRLP; provided, that, promptly upon such determination, PRLP shall deliver to Landmark a written notice (“Property Objection Notice”) identifying the Objectionable Property and any conditions, deficiencies or matters which PRLP deems unacceptable (collectively, the “Property Objections”), and, for thirty (30) days following the Property Objection Notice, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to cure and resolve, at no cost to Landmark (unless Landmark, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects to cover the cost to cure and resolve such Property Objections or to provide a credit in the amount of the cost to cure and resolve such Property Objections against the Allocated Transaction Value for the applicable Property at Closing), the Property Objections that are capable of cure or resolution, in each case to PRLP’s reasonable satisfaction; provided, further, that if the Parties are unable to resolve all of the Property Objections to PRLP’s reasonable satisfaction within thirty (30) days following the Property Objection Notice, PRLP shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, at PRLP’s election and in its sole and absolute discretion, as to the Objectionable Property (but not as to any other Property), in which event the Allocated Deposit for the Objectionable Property shall be returned to PRLP, the Objectionable Property shall be designated as a Kick-Out Property, and the Parties shall have no further obligations or liabilities under this Agreement with respect to the Objectionable Property only (other than the Surviving Obligations). In the event that PRLP fails to deliver a written notice to Landmark and Escrow Agent waiving its termination right hereunder on or before the Due Diligence Termination Date, then PRLP shall be deemed to have
29
waived its right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 5.5 and the Parties shall proceed to Closing.
Section 5.6Tenant Interviews. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.6, the terms of the Ground Leases and the rights of any Tenants at the Properties and all Applicable Laws, Landmark shall afford to PRLP reasonable access to each of the Tenants in order to permit PRLP to interview such Tenants. PRLP shall have the right during the period (the “Tenant Interview Period”) commencing on the date Landmark notifies PRLP that it may proceed with the interviews at the applicable Properties (each, an “Interview Start Notice”) and continuing until the date which is twenty (20) Business Days thereafter to arrange and conduct interviews with the Tenants at each Property; provided, that Landmark shall use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate the scheduling of PRLP’s interviews with the Tenants during the Tenant Interview Period; provided, further, Landmark and/or its agents shall be given the opportunity and permitted to observe all such Tenant interviews. Interview Start Notices for all Properties must be issued by Landmark within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date.
Section 5.7Updates. Landmark shall, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to Closing (such time period up to the Closing Date, the “Comment Period”), provide to PRLP an updated Schedule 2.4(a) which shall contain any updates to the information previously set forth on such schedule, as well as, among other pertinent information as may be reasonably requested by PRLP, (a) the full legal name and address of each Person receiving any Units or cash pursuant to this Agreement, (b) such Person’s employer identification number (EIN), taxpayer identification number (TIN) or social security number (SSN), as applicable, (c) such Person’s contact information (mailing address, phone number, email address and details of contact person), (d) dollar value of the Minority Interest Merger Consideration or Unit Value being received, as applicable, in each case as calculated and determined pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement), (e) calculation of the number of Common Units and Preferred Units being received by such person pursuant to Section 2.4(b), and (f) the calculation of the amounts described in Section 1.1(d) (the “Merger Consideration Spreadsheet”). During the Comment Period, PRLP shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Merger Consideration Spreadsheet, and Landmark shall consider such comments in good faith and incorporate any mutually agreed upon comments into the Merger Consideration Spreadsheet prior to Closing.
Section 5.8Further Assurances. In addition to the acts and deeds recited herein and contemplated to be performed, executed or delivered by Landmark, Landmark hereby agrees to perform, execute and deliver, or cause to be performed, executed and delivered, on or prior to the Closing Date or thereafter any and all such further acts, deeds and assurances PRLP may reasonably require in order to consummate fully the transactions contemplated hereunder, including using its commercially reasonable efforts to (a) obtain the Required Approvals/Rejections as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date and (b) satisfy the requirements (or facilitate the satisfaction of the requirements) under the PRT Credit Facility in connection therewith, provided, that for the purposes of this Section 5.8, Landmark shall have no obligation to incur additional out-of-pocket cost (including, without limitation, transfer tax cost) other than its obligation to cause Landmark to provide the Vertical Slice Guaranty. The obligation of the Parties under this Section 5.8 shall survive Closing.

(a)From and after the Closing, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII, Landmark shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless PRLP and its Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, stockholders, members, shareholders, agents, employees and tenants (collectively, the “PRLP Indemnified Parties”), from and against, and
33
reimburse the PRLP Indemnified Parties with respect to, any and all claims, demands, causes of action, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) (but not including punitive, consequential, treble or other similar damages) (“Losses”) which the PRLP Indemnified Parties shall at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of or arising out of: (i) a breach of any representation or warranty of Landmark set forth in this Agreement, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or undertaking made by Landmark under this Agreement, (iii) any inaccuracy in the Merger Consideration Spreadsheet with respect to the amount of the Minority Interest Merger Consideration due and payable to any Minority Partner at the Closing (including any claims of any Minority Partner related to the foregoing) and (iv) any personal injury, property damage or any other liability related to the ownership, construction, maintenance, management, use or operation of the Property first existing or occurring prior to the Closing.
(b)For purposes of this Section 8.1:
(i)with respect to Losses for all representations and warranties (including General Provisions and Entity Provisions): (A) Landmark will not be required to provide indemnification with respect to any such Losses to PRLP unless the aggregate amount of all Losses exceeds Seventy-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($75,000.00) (the “Deductible”), and PRLP shall only be entitled to indemnification with respect to such Losses for amounts in excess of such Deductible; and (B) with respect to each individual Property, Landmark’s liability for Losses with respect to such Property shall not exceed two percent (2%) of such Property’s pro rata share (based on the ratio of such Property’s Allocated Transaction Value to the Allocated Transaction Value of all Properties) of the Cap.
(ii)Landmark’s combined aggregate maximum liability for all Indemnity Losses shall, except as otherwise provided in this clause (b)(ii), be limited to Fourteen Million and No/100 Dollars ($14,000,000.00), which amount shall be reduced proportionately for any Kick-Out Properties that are excluded from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (based on the Allocated Transaction Value of such Kick-Out Properties as compared to the aggregate Transaction Value without giving effect to such Kick-Out Properties) (the “Cap”).
(c)Anything to the contrary in this Agreement notwithstanding, nothing in this Agreement shall limit Landmark’s indemnification obligations for any securities laws violations, common law, constructive or other forms of fraud.
(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landmark’s indemnification obligations under this Section 8.1 shall be reduced by the amount of insurance proceeds, indemnification payments and other third-party payments, actually recovered in connection with such claims (net of any costs incurred in recovering such amounts), and without any obligation of PRLP to pursue any such recovery as a condition to seeking indemnification from Landmark hereunder.
Section 8.2Indemnification by PRLP.
34
(a)From and after the Closing, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII, PRLP shall indemnify, protect, defend, exculpate and hold harmless Landmark and its Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, stockholders, members, shareholders, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Landmark Indemnified Parties”), from and against, and reimburse the Landmark Indemnified Parties with respect to, any and all Losses which the Landmark Indemnified Parties shall at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of or arising out of: (i) a breach of any representation or warranty of PRLP set forth in this Agreement; (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or undertaking made by PRLP under this Agreement; and (iii) any personal injury, property damage or any other liability related to the ownership, maintenance, management, use or operation of the Property first existing or occurring from and after the Closing. No Landmark Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover under Section 8.2(a)(i) to the extent that the aggregate amount actually paid by PRLP to the Landmark Indemnified Parties under Section 8.2(a)(i) would thereby exceed the Cap.
(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, PRLP’s indemnification obligations under this Section 8.2 shall be reduced by the amount of insurance proceeds, indemnification payments and other third-party payments, actually recovered in connection with such claims (net of any costs incurred in recovering such amounts), and without any obligation of Landmark to pursue any such recovery as a condition to seeking indemnification from PRLP hereunder.

(c)If the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of any claim or demand pursuant to Section 8.3(a), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to either (i) pay such claim or demand or (ii) employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party to defend any such claim or demand asserted against the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party, at its own expense, shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such claim or demand. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party in writing, as promptly as possible after the date of the notice of claim given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying

(b)All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement (and any claims for any breach thereof) that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Closing shall remain in full force and effect after the Closing in accordance with their terms (or, if no survival period is stated therein, then such covenants and agreements shall survive indefinitely). All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement that by their terms apply or are to be performed in their entirety on or prior to the Closing shall terminate at the Closing; provided that any claims for any breach thereof shall survive the Closing for twelve (12) months.
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to 5:00 p.m. (CT) on the last day of the Survival Period, an Indemnifying Party has been properly notified of a claim for indemnity hereunder and such claim shall not have been finally resolved or disposed of at such date, such claim shall continue to survive and shall remain a basis for indemnity hereunder until such claim is finally resolved or disposed of in accordance with the terms in this Agreement.
Section 8.5PRLP’s Knowledge. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Landmark shall have no liability pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(i) with respect to any of Landmark’s representations or warranties herein or in any Landmark Document if, prior to the Closing, PRLP has PRLP’s Knowledge of any breach by Landmark of such representation or warranty and PRLP nevertheless consummates the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 8.5 shall impair, limit or otherwise affect any other rights, powers or remedies available to PRLP under this Agreement, and the provisions of this Section 8.5 shall not be construed or deemed to be a waiver of any such rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

Landmark agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the PRLP Indemnified Parties from and against any Losses paid or incurred by the PRLP Indemnified Parties as a result of a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.13 (Brokers and Finders). PRLP agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Landmark Indemnified Parties from and against any Losses paid or incurred by the Landmark Indemnified Parties as a
36
result of a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.5 (Brokers and Finders).
Section 8.7Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing herein will limit or otherwise affect (a) any PRLP Indemnified Parties’ or Landmark Indemnified Parties’ right or ability to make, pursue, enforce or prosecute a claim resulting from fraud or (b) the Property Management Agreements or the Tax Protection Agreement.
Section 8.8Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Any payments made pursuant to the indemnification obligations arising under this Article VIII shall be treated as adjustments to the Transaction Value for all Tax purposes to the extent permitted by law.

PRLP shall be responsible for making any security deposits required by utility companies providing service to the Real Property, other than those for which Landmark received a credit for at Closing.
Section 10.8 Owner Deposits; Reserves; Bank Accounts.
(a)Landmark shall receive a cash credit from PRLP at the Closing of any Property for the following (collectively, “Owner Deposits”): all security deposits under any of the Ground Leases, if any, that are outstanding with respect to all or any portion of such Property that have been provided by any Landmark Group Party or any Affiliate of any Landmark Group Party to any governmental agency, ground lessor, public utility, or similar entity (to the extent such Owner Deposits are refundable and assignable and actually assigned to PRLP); provided, that all refundable utility security deposits not theretofore lawfully applied shall be transferred or credited to PRLP at the Closing or placed in escrow if required by Applicable Law. Schedule 10.8(a) sets forth a complete and accurate list of the Owner Deposits and the amounts thereof as of the dates thereon. To the extent any Owner Deposits are not assignable to or for the benefit of PRLP, PRLP shall cause such Owner Deposits to be replaced and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the release of the applicable Landmark Group Parties (or their Affiliates) from any obligations under such Owner Deposits. To the extent that any funds are released as a result of the termination of any Owner Deposits for which Landmark did not receive a credit at Closing, such funds shall be delivered to Landmark immediately upon their receipt.
49
(b)Landmark shall either (i) receive a cash credit from PRLP at the Closing for each Property for the amount of any cash reserves held by or on behalf of Existing Lender with respect to such Property which remain on deposit with Existing Lender from and after the Closing, or (ii) be refunded at Closing, one hundred percent (100%) of the balance of each cash reserve held by or on behalf of Existing Lender with respect to the Existing Debt.
(c)Promptly following the Closing, Landmark shall close each of the existing bank accounts of the Surviving Project Companies and PRLP shall concurrently therewith open new bank accounts in replacement thereof.
Section 10.9 Closing Costs; Transfer Taxes.
(a)Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.9, each of PRLP and Landmark shall pay their own (and their subsidiaries’) costs and expenses in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including their own (and their subsidiaries’) attorney’s fees incurred in connection with such transactions. Landmark shall pay such costs and expenses of Landmark (and its subsidiaries) at or prior to Closing.
(b)At or before Closing, PRLP shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of (i) the costs of any and all third-party studies or reports requested or commissioned by PRLP or its Affiliates, representatives or agents in connection with the Closing, including the cost of any zoning reports, environmental reports (including Phase I environmental reports), property condition reports, market studies or appraisals, (ii) any and all mortgage recording taxes or documentary or similar taxes or recording fees that relate solely to borrowings by PRLP to finance the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (iii) the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the PRT Credit Facility, as more particularly provided in Section 1.4 hereof. At or before Closing, Landmark shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of (x) the title search fees payable in connection with obtaining the Title Policies (other than any loan policy(ies)) issued to PRLP in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (y) any transfer taxes required to be paid in connection with the transfer of the Properties (or direct or indirect ownership of the Properties) at Closing, and (z) the premium for each Title Policy (other than any loan policy(ies)) issued to PRLP in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(c)All other costs of Closing (including (i) the cost of UCC searches, (ii) sales taxes, deed taxes and similar taxes and fees related to the transfer of the Properties (or direct or indirect ownership of the Properties) at Closing, (iii) the cost to obtain any endorsement requested by PRLP, including extended coverage, (but not including any endorsement required to cure or insure over any title objection identified by PRLP in any Title Objection Notice which Landmark agreed to cure), (iv) any and all mortgage recording taxes or documentary or similar taxes or recording fees other than those set forth in clause (ii) of the first sentence of Section 10.9(b), and (v) any escrow or closing charges of the Title Company or Escrow Agent) shall be allocated among PRLP and Landmark at Closing based on the custom of the jurisdiction in which the Properties are located. The Parties agree that Schedule 10.9 contains the agreement of the Parties hereto as to the custom of each jurisdiction in which a Property is located with respect to the costs of Closing identified thereon.
50
(d)Landmark shall prepare and cause to be filed at Closing all applicable sales tax or real property transfer tax forms or declarations or similar forms as required by Applicable Law. PRLP shall cooperate in the filing of such returns, including by promptly supplying any information in its possession that is reasonably required by Landmark to complete such returns.
Section 10.10 Final Adjustment After Closing. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the items being prorated under this Article X have fully reconciled for calendar year 2020 (and, for avoidance of doubt, all calendar years prior to 2020). If final prorations cannot be made at Closing for any item being prorated under this Article X for any calendar year after 2020, then, PRLP and Landmark agree to make a preliminary proration at the Closing, and any adjustments to such proration after the Closing (“Post-Closing Prorations”). Not later than thirty (30) days following Closing, Landmark shall provide PRLP with trailing utilities and operating costs for the period prior to Closing, with PRLP having the obligation and duty to invoice Tenants for any portion of the trailing amounts which are tenant obligations and to pursue payment from Tenants using PRLP’s standard and customary collection practices for a period of four (4) months following Closing. PRLP and Landmark agree to allocate such items on a fair and equitable basis as soon as collections, invoices or bills are available, with final adjustment to be made no later than five (5) months after the Closing, except that adjustments arising from any tax protest under Section 10.5 shall not be subject to such five (5) month limitation, but shall be made as soon as reasonably possible. Payments in connection with the final adjustment shall be due no later than ten (10) Business Days after the adjustment is agreed on by Landmark and PRLP. To the extent any portion of the additional payment of the applicable Allocated Transaction Value hereunder is due to one or more Minority Partners, PRLP shall make one aggregate payment of the corresponding portion of the Allocated Transaction Value to Landmark as agent of such Minority Partner, and Landmark shall be solely responsible for delivering all such payments to the Minority Partners in the amounts they are entitled to receive pursuant to such Minority Partner’s entitlement to Minority Interest Merger Consideration as set forth in Schedule 2.4(a) and the Merger Consideration Spreadsheet (as updated pursuant to Section 5.7 and as needed at the time of the final adjustment) and otherwise in accordance with the applicable Plan of Merger and Organizational Documents and pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in this Section, except for any reconciliation arising out of a tax protest under Section 10.5 hereof and except for any Post-Closing Prorations (which must be determined and paid in accordance with the terms hereof), all prorations made under this Section 10.10 shall be final as of the Closing and shall not be subject to further adjustment (whether due to an error or for any other reason) after the Closing. The terms and provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing.
Section 10.11 Survival. The terms of this Article X shall survive the Closing.
Article XI
TERMINATION
TERMINATION
Section 11.1 Method of Termination. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby may be terminated (other than with respect to Surviving Obligations), as follows:
51
(a)by either Party pursuant to, and to the extent provided in, Section 11.3;
(b)by PRLP pursuant to Section 2.7(d) or Section 13.16:
(c)with respect to any applicable Property (but not the Agreement with respect to any other Property hereunder) by PRLP pursuant to Sections 5.4, 5.5, 7.2, 7.3 or 13.16 (with each Property subject to such termination being a Kick-Out Property for purposes of this Agreement);
(d)by mutual written consent of the Parties;
(e)by either Party, by giving written notice to the other Party, if a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority shall have issued a non-appealable final order, decree or ruling or taken any other action, in each case having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, if the foregoing only restrains, enjoins or prohibits the transactions contemplated under this Agreement with respect to a Property or certain Properties, then any such Property shall be designated as a Kick-Out Property, and this Agreement shall only terminate as to the applicable Property and shall remain outstanding with respect to any Properties not so restrained, enjoined or prohibited; and/or
(f)with respect to any Kick-Out Property, automatically subject to and in accordance with Section 2.7 hereof.
Section 11.2 Procedure Upon Termination. In the event any Party exercises its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1, this Agreement (or the portion thereof relating to the applicable Property or Properties, as applicable) (other than the Surviving Obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement) shall immediately terminate, without further action by any of the Parties. If this Agreement is terminated in its entirety for any reason, no Party shall have any liability or further obligation except in respect of the Deposit (as provided herein), for the Surviving Obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated with respect to one or more (but not all) of the Properties, no Party shall have any liability or further obligation with respect to such Property or Properties except in respect of (a) the Allocated Deposit applicable thereto (as provided herein) and (b) for the Surviving Obligations applicable thereto that survive the termination of this Agreement; provided that in such event the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and outstanding with respect to any Properties for which it was not terminated.
Section 11.3 Effect of Termination; Remedies for Default and Disposition of the Deposit.
(a)Landmark Defaults.
(i)If, on or prior to the Outside Closing Date, Landmark fails to perform any of its material covenants or obligations hereunder or breaches any of its representations or warranties hereunder, in each case in any material respect, which breach is not cured within fifteen (15) days of written notice being provided to
52
Landmark (or, if applicable, the applicable Properties have not been designated as Kick-Out Properties in accordance with Sections 1.3 and 2.7 as of such date), PRLP may, at its option either: (A) terminate this Agreement entirely or with respect to any Property to which the breach relates, in which case such Property will be designated as a Kick-Out Property (and, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 9.2(i) shall apply), in each case by giving written notice of termination to Landmark, whereupon the entire Deposit (or with respect to termination for any individual Property, the Allocated Deposit for such Property) which has not then been applied shall be returned to PRLP; or (B) provided that PRLP has satisfied all conditions required to be satisfied by it that are set forth in Section 9.3 (other than those conditions that by their terms or nature are to be satisfied on the Closing Date), and is ready, willing and able to close as of the Outside Closing Date (or any prior date), then, on or prior to the date that is thirty (30) days after the Outside Closing Date (1) PRLP shall have the right, at its election, to file an action for specific performance or (2) if PRLP elects not to file such action for specific performance, PRLP shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as provided above and Landmark shall (x) return of the balance of the Deposit as provided above and (y) pay to PRLP liquidated damages in the amount of the Liquidated Damages Amount, so long as, solely with respect to such liquidated damages, Landmark’s breach of this Agreement in failing to close the transactions contemplated hereby was willful and material. PRLP specifically and expressly waives any right to file a lis pendens against any of the Properties or Landmark. The Parties agree, and Landmark acknowledges, that (x) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred by PRLP as a result of Landmark’s failure and default hereunder is incapable or is difficult to precisely estimate, (y) the Liquidated Damages Amount bears a reasonable proportion, and is not plainly or grossly disproportionate to, the probable loss likely to be incurred by PRLP under the circumstances existing as of the Effective Date, and (z) the Parties are sophisticated business parties and have been represented by sophisticated and able legal and financial counsel and negotiated this Agreement at arm’s length. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, prior to the date that Landmark and PRLP shall finalize each Schedule and Exhibit (if any) that are not finalized as of the Effective Date, Landmark shall in no event be obligated to pay all or any portion of the Liquidated Damages Amount to PRLP. The Parties acknowledge that the payment of the Liquidated Damages Amount by Landmark is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty under any legal or equitable theory, but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to PRLP. Landmark’s obligation to pay to PRLP liquidated damages to the extent required in accordance with this Section 11.3(a)(i) is a Surviving Obligation of Landmark and shall not terminate unless and until such amount has been paid in full.
(ii)To the extent that under this Agreement or pursuant to Applicable Law, Landmark has any liability to PRLP, PRLP agrees that none of the members, directors, officers, trustees, employees, shareholders, partners or agents of Landmark or its Affiliates shall have any personal obligation or liability hereunder, and PRLP covenants that it shall not seek or assert any claim or enforce any of its rights hereunder or otherwise against any of the members, directors, officers, trustees, employees, shareholders, partners or agents of Landmark or against any other Person, as principal, director, officer or trustee of Landmark, whether disclosed or undisclosed, in each case absent any fraud.
53
(b)PRLP Defaults.
(i)If the Closing is not consummated on or before the Outside Closing Date due to PRLP’s breach of its covenants or obligations hereunder or other default or breach of any of its representations or warranties hereunder, in each case that would cause any of the conditions set forth in Section 9.3(a) or Section 9.3(b) not to be satisfied prior to the Outside Closing Date, which breach is not cured within fifteen (15) days of written notice being provided to PRLP, then Landmark shall have the right, as their sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, upon written notice to PRLP, to receive the Deposit as liquidated damages, which payment shall operate to terminate this Agreement and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, release PRLP from any and all liability hereunder under circumstances where the Closing does not occur (including for fraud or willful breach by PRLP). The Parties have agreed that the actual damages of Landmark, in the event of a failure to consummate the transactions contemplated herein due to PRLP’s default or breach of its covenants hereunder, would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine. After negotiation, the Parties have agreed that, considering all the circumstances existing on the date of this Agreement, an amount equal to the Deposit is a reasonable estimate of the damages that Landmark would incur in such event. In such event, Landmark shall be entitled to the Deposit and the Escrow Agent shall promptly release the Deposit to Landmark in immediately payable funds.
(ii)To the extent that under this Agreement or pursuant to Applicable Law, PRLP has any liability to Landmark, Landmark agrees that none of the members, directors, officers, trustees, employees, shareholders, partners or agents of PRLP or its Affiliates shall have any personal obligation or liability hereunder, and Landmark covenants that it shall not seek or assert any claim or enforce any of its rights hereunder or otherwise against any of the members, directors, officers, trustees, employees, shareholders, partners or agents of PRLP or against any other Person, as principal, director, officer or trustee of PRLP, whether disclosed or undisclosed, in each case absent any common law, constructive or other forms of fraud.
Nothing in this Section 11.3(b) shall be construed to limit Landmark’s rights or damages under any indemnities given by PRLP to Landmark under this Agreement.
(c)Disposition of the Deposit. In the event any transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall close, the Allocated Deposit (plus interest accrued thereon) with respect the applicable Property shall be applied as payment of a portion of the Allocated Transaction Value being paid at the Closing in accordance with Section 1.2 hereof. In the event of a termination of this Agreement in its entirety by PRLP or Landmark (except pursuant to Section 11.1(a) as a result of a default by PRLP as contemplated by Section 11.3(b)), Escrow Agent shall (and the Parties hereto shall promptly direct the Escrow Agent to) return to PRLP the Deposit then-held by Escrow Agent.

No Party shall, and each Party shall cause its Affiliates not to, issue a press release or otherwise publicly disclose any information regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the consent of PRLP (in the case of Landmark and its Affiliates) or Landmark (in the case of PRLP and its Affiliates), in each case not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that (a) the Parties shall have the right to disclose publicly this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby to the extent as may be required by Applicable Law or under the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or applicable listing requirements or rules of any stock exchange, and (b) to such title companies, lenders, attorneys, accountants, partners, directors, officers, employees and representatives of any Party or of such Party’s advisors who need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating and consummating the transactions contemplated hereby, including any financing of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Parties understand and agree that, promptly following the Effective Date, PRLP or its Affiliate will (x) issue a press release regarding the transactions contemplated hereby, which shall not specifically identify Landmark or the specific location of any Property, and PRLP shall provide a draft of such press release to Landmark no later than forty-eight (48) hours prior to the Effective Date, and (y) make a public disclosure of the transactions contemplated hereby which shall identify Landmark and the Properties, including a copy of this Agreement, on Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with Applicable Law and applicable listing requirements (including any timing requirements), provided that PRLP shall provide a draft of such disclosure

THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 13.13 SHALL SURVIVE THE CLOSING OR EARLIER TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
Section 13.14 Third Party Beneficiaries. Other than the Parties hereto and the Indemnified Parties as set forth in Article VIII, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer upon any third party any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
Section 13.15 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article, a Section, Exhibit or section of the Disclosure Schedules, such reference shall be to an Article of, a Section of, or an Exhibit or section of the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. References to a person are also to its successors and permitted assigns. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiating and
58
drafting of this Agreement. In the event of an ambiguity or a question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any Exhibit hereto, this Agreement shall govern.
Section 13.16 Disclosure Schedules. The disclosure schedules attached hereto (the “Disclosure Schedules”) are arranged in sections and subsections corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and subsections contained in this Agreement to which such sections and subsections of the Disclosure Schedules relate. An exception to a specific section or subsection of a representation or warranty in Article III set forth in the Disclosure Schedules modifies the corresponding representation or warranty in Article III, notwithstanding whether such representation and warranty specifically references the Disclosure Schedules. Any fact or item disclosed in any section of the Disclosure Schedules shall not be deemed, solely by reason of such inclusion, to be material and shall not be employed as a point of reference in determining any standard of materiality under this Agreement. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedules is intended to broaden the scope of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement. In connection with the remaking of representations and warranties as of the Closing (but not as to representations and warranties made as of the Effective Date), Landmark shall be permitted at any time (but in no event less than three (3) Business Days prior to Closing unless the fact or circumstance requiring such update shall occur following the three (3) Business Days prior to Closing) to update the Disclosure Schedules as to any fact or circumstance first arising after the Effective Date, to accurately reflect the current state of matters as of the Closing; provided, however, that Landmark shall not be permitted to update the Disclosure Schedules to reflect matters caused by the willful or intentional breach of this Agreement by Landmark or to reflect any breach of representations and warranties made as of the Effective Date; provided, further, that in the event Landmark makes any such update to the Disclosure Schedules hereunder and the facts or circumstances disclosed by such update materially and adversely affect, or are reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect any Property or the transactions contemplated herein, and do not relate to a Casualty Event or Condemnation Event (any such update, an "Objectionable Disclosure Schedule Update"), then PRLP shall have the right to request that Landmark cure and resolve, at no cost to Landmark, any Objectionable Disclosure Schedule Updates, and, in such event, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to cure and resolve, at no cost to Landmark, any such Objectionable Disclosure Schedule Update that is capable of cure or resolution, in each case to PRLP’s reasonable satisfaction; provided, further, that if the Parties are unable to resolve any Objectionable Disclosure Schedule Update to PRLP’s reasonable satisfaction on or prior to the Closing Date, then PRLP shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, at PRLP’s election and in its sole and absolute discretion, either (a) in its entirety and receive a refund of the balance of the Deposit together with any all accrued interest or (b) with respect to any Property to which such updated disclosure relates, in which case such Property will be designated as a Kick-Out Property, and receive a refund of the Allocated Deposit for such Property.
Section 13.17 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each Party (a) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of the State of New York in New York County and to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purposes of each and every suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the subject matter hereof brought by the Parties, it being expressly understood and agreed that this
59
consent to jurisdiction shall be self-operative and no further instrument or action, other than service of process as required by law, shall be necessary in order to confer jurisdiction upon a Party in any such court; and (b) waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise, in any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court, any claim that either PRLP or Landmark are not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that PRLP’s or Landmark’ property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court, and further agrees to waive, to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law, the benefit of any defense that would hinder, xxxxxx or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which Landmark, PRLP or its respective successors or assigns are entitled pursuant to the final judgment of any court having jurisdiction.
Section 13.18 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Applicable Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.
Section 13.19 Legal Fees. The prevailing Party in any suit or other action arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be entitled to recover from the other Party all reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing Party in connection with the suit or other action, including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses.
