22
(b) The provisions of this Section 13.1 shall not apply to any liabilities or obligations with respect to hazardous substances, the liabilities of the parties with respect thereto being governed by the representation and warranty of Seller set forth in Section 7.12. The indemnity provided for in this Section 13.1 shall not extend to any consequential damages or punitive damages.
(c) Whenever it is provided in this Agreement that an obligation will continue after the Closing as an obligation of Purchaser or be assumed by Purchaser after the Closing, Purchaser shall be deemed to have also agreed to indemnify and hold harmless Seller, Manager and Tenant and their respective successors and assigns from and against any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses) arising from any failure of Purchaser to perform the obligation so continued or assumed after the Closing (but not with respect to any act or omission which occurred prior to the Closing).
(d) Whenever any party shall learn through the filing of a claim or the commencement of a proceeding or otherwise of the existence of any liability for which another party is or may be responsible under this Agreement, the party learning of such liability shall notify the other party promptly and furnish such copies of documents (and make originals thereof available) and such other information as such party may have that may be used or useful in the defense of such claims and shall afford said other party full opportunity to defend the same in the name of such party and shall generally cooperate with said other party in the defense of any such claim.
(e) The provisions of this Section 13.1 shall survive the Closing hereunder subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 13.1. Except as specifically provided otherwise herein, all representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year. With respect to all representations and warranties made in this Agreement which survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date, any action, suit or proceeding with respect to the truth, accuracy or completeness of any such representation or warranty shall be commenced, if at all, on or before the date which is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date and served promptly (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after commencement) and, if not commenced on or before such date and so served, thereafter shall be void and of no force or effect.
13.2 Brokerage Commissions. Each of the parties hereto represents to the other parties that it dealt with no broker, finder or like agent in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and that it reasonably believes that there is no basis for any other person or entity to claim a commission or other compensation for bringing about this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and Tenant and their successors and assigns from and against any loss, liability or expense, including, reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of any claim or claims for commissions or other compensation for bringing about this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby made by any broker, finder or like agent, if such claim or claims are based in whole or in part on dealings with Seller.

23
from and against any loss, liability or expense, including, reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of any claim or claims for commissions or other compensation for bringing about this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby made by any broker, finder or like agent, if such claim or claims are based in whole or in part on dealings with Purchaser or Tenant, as the case may be.

13.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the conflict of any provision with any constitution or statute or rule of public policy or for any other reason, such circumstance shall not have the effect of rendering the provision or provisions in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or in any other case or circumstance or of rendering any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to the extent that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with such constitution, statute or rule of public policy, but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if such invalid, inoperative or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and such provision reformed so that it would be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in such jurisdiction or in such case.
26
13.9 Counterparts, Etc.

From and after Closing Date, and at the written request of Purchaser, the Seller shall provide such financial statements in respect of Seller’s operations relating to its Property from the date of Seller’s commencement of business to the Closing Date to the extent such financial statements are required by applicable securities laws and regulations and the SEC’s interpretation thereof; provided, however, that (i) Seller reserves the right, in good faith, to challenge, and require Purchaser to use commercially reasonable efforts to challenge, any assertion by the SEC, any other applicable regulatory authority, or Purchaser’s independent public accountants that applicable law or regulations require the provision of such financial statements, (ii) Purchaser shall not, without Seller’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), acquiesce to any such challenged assertion until Purchaser has exhausted all reasonable available avenues of administrative review, and (iii) Purchaser shall consult with Seller in pursuing any such challenge and will allow Seller to participate therein if and to the extent that Seller so elects. Any and all costs and expenses incurred by Seller, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, in connection with providing such financial statements to Purchaser or in connection with any challenge to an SEC assertion (including Seller’s consultation or participation with Purchaser in respect of same) shall be reimbursed to Seller by Purchaser within ten (10) days following written demand by Seller.
