ARTICLE IV
NO DUE DILIGENCE CONTINGENCY; TITLE INSURANCE
Section 4.1 No Due Diligence Contingency
(a) No Due Diligence Contingency. Purchaser expressly acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are not contingent or conditioned upon any inspection, due diligence or title insurance contingency or condition precedent. The state of the physical or environmental condition of the California Property and/or the New York Property shall not be a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to consummate the Closing.
(b) No Right of Access to the Properties. Purchaser expressly acknowledges that it shall have no right to enter upon either of the Properties in its capacity as “Purchaser” hereunder and that Facilitator has no right to grant any right of access to the Properties; provided, however, that Facilitator shall, from and after the date of the Merger Agreement, upon Purchaser’s request, use its commercially reasonable efforts to permit Purchaser, its partners and potential partners, its lenders and its potential lenders, and each of their respective officers, employees, contractors, consultants, agents or representatives to obtain reasonable access to the Properties to the extent permitted pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Facilitator expressly acknowledges that (i) the existing Managers of the Hotels shall retain all of their rights under the applicable Management Agreements, and (ii) neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates have provided any information regarding the Hotels to Facilitator and Facilitator relied on its own determinations and investigations to reach agreement regarding the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
(c) No Due Diligence Materials. Purchaser expressly acknowledges that Facilitator is not in possession of and cannot and has not provided any of the customary due diligence materials that a seller of assets such as the Properties might otherwise normally provide. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Facilitator shall, from and after the date of the Merger Agreement, upon Purchaser’s request, use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide information regarding the Properties to the extent permitted pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
(d) Natural Hazards. With respect to the California Hotel, for purposes hereof, the phrase “Natural Hazards” shall have the meaning described in the following California Code Sections which may affect the California Property: Government Code Section 8589.3 (Special Flood Hazard); Government Code Section 8589.5 (Potential Flooding); Government Code Sections 51178 and 51179 (Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone); Public Resources Code Section 2622 (Earthquake Fault Zone); Public Resources Code Section 2696 (Seismic Hazard Zone); and Public Resources Code Section 4125 (Wildland Forest Fire Risks and Hazards). Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser is an experienced real estate investor and is fully capable of determining whether any lists or maps delineating properties affected by such Natural Hazards are available and otherwise determining whether any such Natural Hazards affect any of the California Property. Purchaser has, or by Closing will have, independently evaluated and investigated whether any or all of such Natural Hazards affect the California Property. Based on the foregoing, Purchaser knowingly and intentionally waives any disclosures, obligations or requirements of California Hotel Owner or Facilitator with respect to Natural Hazards, including, without limitation, any disclosure obligations or requirements under the following California Code Sections: Government Code Sections 8589.3, 8589.4 and 51183.5 and Public Resources Code Sections 2621.9, 2694 and 4136 (the “Natural Hazard Disclosure Requirements”). Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that this waiver has been specifically negotiated and is an essential aspect of the bargain between the Parties.
(e) Natural Hazards Report. With respect to the California Hotel, Purchaser shall obtain from Escrow Agent a Natural Hazard disclosure statement (“Natural Hazard Disclosure Statement”) in the form provided in California Civil Code Section 1103.2(a) to which Escrow Agent’s (in its capacity as a nature hazard expert) written report (the “Natural Hazards Report”) shall be attached. Purchaser agrees that, if for any reason the provisions of the prior paragraph are not given full force and effect, said Natural Hazard Disclosure Statement and the Natural Hazards Report attached thereto fully and completely discharge Facilitator and California Hotel Owner from its or their disclosure obligations under the Natural Hazard
Disclosure Requirements. For the purpose of this Agreement, the provisions of Civil Code Section 1103.4 regarding the non-liability of Facilitator and California Hotel Owner for errors or omissions not within its or their personal knowledge shall be deemed to apply. Purchaser agrees that the Escrow Agent shall be deemed to be an expert in the preparation of Natural Hazards reports, dealing with matters within its scope of expertise with respect to the examination and Natural Hazards and that the Natural Hazard Disclosure Statement and Natural Hazards Report shall be deemed to have been provided to Purchaser at Purchaser’s request. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that the matters set forth in the Natural Hazards Report may change on or prior to the Closing and that neither Facilitator nor California Hotel Owner shall have any obligation to update, modify or supplement the Natural Hazards Report
Section 4.2 Title and Survey.
(a) Title Commitment and Survey. Purchaser may obtain, at its sole cost and expense, either a Preliminary Title Report or, if available, a commitment for a standard CLTA form of Owner Title Insurance Policy from the Title Company for the California Real Property, together with a copy of all documents referenced therein and a standard ALTA form of Owner Title Insurance Policy from the Title Company for the New York Real Property, together with a copy of all documents referenced therein.
(b) Title Insurance. Purchaser shall have the right, prior to Closing, to negotiate for such title insurance coverage with respect to its proposed purchase of the Properties as Purchaser shall desire. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser expressly acknowledges that, except for the Hotel Owners’ obligation to deliver title to the Real Properties pursuant to the Deeds subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, Purchaser’s satisfaction (or dissatisfaction) with the state of title or with the matters shown on any surveys of the Real Properties Purchaser may obtain shall not be a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligations hereunder and that Purchaser shall have no right to terminate this Agreement on account of any matter affecting title to the Real Properties.

Subsequent to Closing, Facilitator and the Hotel Owners, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other (at no cost or expense to the Party whose cooperation is requested, other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which the requesting Party agrees in writing to reimburse) to (i) provide written notice to, and obtain any necessary consents or approvals from, any Person under any Tenant Leases, Contracts, Licenses and Permits, and (ii) effect any registrations or filings with any Governmental Authority or other Person, regarding the change in ownership of the Hotels.
Section 7.7 Access to Information. After the Closing, Purchaser shall provide reasonable access to the officers, employees, agents and representatives of Facilitator to
Purchaser’s books and records for the Hotels applicable solely to the period prior to Closing to facilitate the preparation of any documents required to be filed by Facilitator and/or either of the Hotel Owners under Applicable Law or the resolution of any audit, litigation or other proceeding, claim or charge made by any Person or insurance claim involving Facilitator and/or either of the Hotel Owners or any of its or their Affiliates; provided, however, that (A) such Facilitator Indemnitees shall provide reasonable prior notice to Purchaser; (B) Purchaser shall not be required to provide such access during non-business hours; (C) Purchaser shall have the right to accompany the officer, employees, agents or representatives of such Facilitator Indemnitees in providing access to its books and records as provided in this Section 7.7. Purchaser, at its cost and expense, shall retain all books and records for the period prior to Closing with respect to the Hotels for a period of four (4) years after the Closing. Additionally, after Closing, the Parties shall mutually cooperate with one another (at no or de minimis expense to the cooperating Party) to provide access to the Properties on such basis as they shall reasonably agree in connection with the settlement, payment and/or adjudication of any pre- or post-Closing Liabilities.
Section 7.8 Further Assurances. Each of the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (a) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under Applicable Laws to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) to cause the satisfaction at the earliest practicable date of all of the conditions to their respective obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. After the Closing, Facilitator and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts (at no cost or expense to such Party, other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which the requesting Party agrees in writing to reimburse) to further effect the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and to address any reasonable requests either may have in connection with any legal requirement, tax audit, tax return or other reporting obligations.
Section 7.9 Employee Matters.
(a) Employees. Purchaser shall retain Manager to manage and operate both of the Hotels after Closing. For a period of 180 days following Closing, Purchaser shall cause Manager not to layoff or terminate employees in a manner that would result in Liability for any Party under the WARN Act. This Section 7.9(a) is not intended, and shall not be deemed, to confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, to create any agreement of employment with any Person or to otherwise create any third party beneficiary hereto.
(b) Union Contracts.
(i) Purchaser acknowledges that as of the date hereof, certain Employees (collectively the “Union Employees”) engaged to work at the Hotels are subject to union contracts (collectively the “Union Contracts”).
(ii) At the Closing, to the extent Manager is not a signatory or otherwise bound by the Union Contracts, and except as otherwise agreed to by the applicable Union, Purchaser shall, and/or Purchaser shall cause Manager to: (i) assume the Union Contracts; (ii) recognize the respective unions (each a “Union” and collectively, the “Unions”) as exclusive collective bargaining representatives of the respective Union Employees employed at the Hotels;
and (iii) become a signatory to the Union Contracts, adopting the Union Contracts with respect to the Hotels.
(c) Multiemployer Pension Plans.
(i) None of Facilitator or, to Facilitator’s Knowledge, any of the Hotel Owners is or was an “employer” with respect to either of the Hotels for purposes of Title IV of ERISA, and subsequent to the Closing Date, Purchaser will also not be an “employer” with respect to either of the Hotels for purposes of Title IV of ERISA. The “employer” with respect to each of the Hotels for purposes of Title IV of ERISA is the Manager, and the Manager prior to and immediately following the Closing Date and transaction effected by this Agreement shall be the same entity. As a result, none of Facilitator or any of the Hotel Owners has nor, subsequent to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have, an obligation to contribute to the multiemployer pension plans with respect to the California Hotel and the New York Hotel, respectively, as set forth on Schedule 7.9(c) attached hereto (each a “Multiemployer Pension Plan”).
(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that it is alleged that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may constitute a claimed partial or complete withdrawal by Facilitator or a Hotel Owner as determined under Title IV of ERISA, then the Parties agree as follows:
(1) The purpose of this Section 7.9(c)(ii) is to satisfy the requirements of ERISA Section 4204 so that the transactions contemplated by this agreement will not result in any Party incurring any liability under Section 4201 of ERISA with respect to each such Multiemployer Pension Plan (“Withdrawal Liability”). Each of the Parties mutually agree to cooperate in effecting the purposes of this Section 7.9(c)(ii) both before and after the Closing.
(2) The Parties acknowledge and agree that Section 4204 of ERISA shall apply to the extent that the sale of the Properties otherwise would result in the imposition of liability on Facilitator or Hotel Owners due to a complete withdrawal or a partial withdrawal of Hotel Owners from any such Multiemployer Pension Plan pursuant to Section 4201, 4203 or 4205 of ERISA. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and agree as follows:
a. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, following the Closing, Purchaser shall contribute (or shall cause Manager to contribute) to each Multiemployer Pension Plan with respect to the Property for substantially the same number of contribution base units (as defined in Section 4001(a)(11) of ERISA) for which Hotel Owners (or Manager as agent for Hotel Owners) or the ERISA Affiliate of any of them had an obligation to contribute to the Multiemployer Pension Plan with respect to the Employees, within the meaning of ERISA Section 4204(a)(1)(A) in accordance with the Union Contracts;
b. Unless a waiver (as described in the immediately succeeding sentence) is obtained, Purchaser, at its expense, shall obtain and provide to each Multiemployer Pension Plan for a period of five (5) plan years, commencing with the first plan year beginning after Closing, a bond or escrow required by ERISA Section 4204(a)(1)(B). If requested by Purchaser, Facilitator and Hotel Owners shall cooperate in Purchaser’s requesting, a waiver of any such bond or escrow in accordance with PBGC Reg. Sections 4204.11, 4204.12 and 4204.13;
c. If following Closing, Purchaser (or Manager) withdraws from a Multiemployer Pension Plan in a complete withdrawal or a partial withdrawal with respect to a Property’s operations at or before the end of the fifth plan year beginning after the Closing, Hotel Owners (or if any Hotel Owner is dissolved its ERISA Affiliates) shall be secondarily liable with respect to any Withdrawal Liability it would have had to the Multiemployer Pension Plan with respect to such Property (but for the application of ERISA Section 4204) if the Withdrawal Liability of Purchaser (or Manager) is not paid, as provided under ERISA Section 4204(a)(1)(C).
(3) Notwithstanding that Facilitator and Hotel Owners are secondarily liable under Section 7.9(c)(ii)(2)(c) above, Purchaser shall indemnify Facilitator, Hotel Owners and their ERISA Affiliates from any claims for Withdrawal Liability as a result of (i) Purchaser failing to fulfill its obligations under Section 7.9(c)(ii)(2)(a) or (b) above to the satisfaction of the applicable Multiemployer Pension Plan, or (ii) Facilitator, Hotel Owners or their ERISA Affiliates becoming secondarily liable for such Withdrawal Liability as described in Section 7.9(c)(ii)(2)(c).
(iii) Purchaser, Facilitator, Hotel Owners and Manager shall reasonably cooperate with each other and/or any representative of the applicable Multiemployer Pension Plan with respect to any inquiry or reasonable request for information and assistance regarding any claim against Facilitator or a Hotel Owner for liability on account of a claimed partial or complete withdrawal by Facilitator or a Hotel Owner as determined under Title IV of ERISA, or, with respect to Facilitator or a Hotel Owner for claimed contributions owed by Facilitator or a Hotel Owner to the Multiemployer Pension Plan with respect to the Employees of a Hotel or any request for information made by a Multiemployer Pension Plan to Facilitator, any Hotel Owner, or any of their ERISA Affiliates.
Section 7.10 Joinder. From and after engagement by LaSalle with Facilitator for the purposes of the negotiation of the Merger Agreement, Facilitator shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause LaSalle to enter into a joinder in the form attached hereto as Annex I (the “Joinder”).
Section 7.11 Merger Agreement. No Party shall waive (or agree to waive) or fail to enforce (or agree to fail to enforce) any rights under, or amend, modify or supplement any of the terms or conditions of the Merger Agreement (including, but not limited to, covenants calling for LaSalle (i) to operate in the ordinary course until the closing under the Merger Agreement, and (ii) not to terminate either or both of the Management Agreements for any reason other than a “for cause” termination of Manager) in a manner that would have a material impact on the Properties without Purchaser’s prior written consent.
Section 7.12 Exclusivity. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, Facilitator shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, representatives, agents and investment bankers not to, directly or indirectly, discuss, pursue, solicit, initiate, participate in, facilitate, encourage or otherwise enter into any discussions, negotiations, agreements or other arrangements regarding, or which could lead to, a possible sale or other disposition (whether by merger, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of all or any part of the Properties or the Hotels with any other Person other than Purchaser or its Affiliates (an “Acquisition Proposal”) or provide any information to any Person other than Purchaser and its Affiliates and its and their respective representatives, agents and lenders other than information which is traditionally
provided in the regular course of Facilitator’s and Hotel Owners’ business operations to third parties where Facilitator and its Affiliates and its and their respective officers and directors have no reason to believe that such information may be utilized to evaluate any Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms and conditions of this Section 7.12 shall not apply with respect to Facilitator’s communications with LaSalle regarding the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
Section 7.13 Survival. The provisions of this Article VII shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Closing.

ARTICLE XI
TRANSITION PROCEDURES
Section 11.1 Settlement Statement. No later than the Business Day prior to Closing, Facilitator and Purchaser through their respective employees, agents or representatives, jointly shall make such examinations and audits of the Hotels as may be necessary to make the adjustments and Prorations to the Purchase Price as set forth in Section 10.1 or any other provisions of this Agreement. Based upon such examinations and audits, Facilitator and Purchaser jointly shall prepare prior to Closing a settlement statement (the “Settlement Statement”), which shall set forth Facilitator’s and Purchaser’s best estimate of the amounts of the items to be adjusted and prorated under this Agreement. The Settlement Statement shall be approved and executed by Facilitator and Purchaser, and shall be binding and conclusive on Facilitator and Purchaser. At any time within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, each of Facilitator and Purchaser may, by notice delivered to the other (provided that each party shall be limited to not more than one such notice), advise the other party hereto that it has discovered any items which were incorrectly adjusted or prorated therein, or that it has obtained accurate amounts for items that were prorated, allocated or adjusted based upon estimates. Such notice shall itemize and quantify the items for reproration. Provided such claim for reproration is well-founded, such items shall be adjusted and prorated in the same manner as if their existence or such error had been known at the time of the preparation of the Settlement Statement. The Party owing a net amount as a result of such reproration shall pay such amount to the other Party promptly after the reproration. Purchaser shall give Facilitator access to Purchaser’s books and records from and after the Closing Date for the purpose of making the adjustments contemplated by this Section 11.1. This Section 11.1 shall survive the Closing.
Section 11.2 Safe Deposit Boxes. Prior to the Closing, Facilitator shall cause the Hotel Owners to notify all guests or customers who are then using a safe deposit box at their respective Hotels advising them of the pending change in ownership of the applicable Property and requesting them to conduct an inventory and verify the contents of such safe deposit box. All inventories by such guests or customers shall be conducted under the joint supervision of representatives of the applicable Hotel Owner and Purchaser (and thereafter each such safe deposit box shall deemed an “Inventoried Safe Deposit Box”). Purchaser shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify the Facilitator Indemnitees from and against any Liabilities incurred with respect to, any theft, loss or damage to the contents of any safe deposit box from and after the time such safe deposit box is deemed an Inventoried Safe Deposit Box pursuant to this Section 11.2. Facilitator shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees from and against any Liabilities incurred, with respect to, any theft, loss or damage to the contents of any safe deposit box prior to the time such safe deposit box is deemed an Inventoried Safe Deposit Box. This Section 11.2 shall survive the Closing.
Section 11.3 Baggage. On the Closing Date, the Hotel Owners (at Facilitator’s direction) and Purchaser jointly shall make a written inventory of all baggage, boxes and similar items checked in or left in the care of the applicable Hotel Owner at the applicable Hotel (the “Inventoried Baggage”). Purchaser shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify the Facilitator Indemnitees from and against any Liabilities incurred, with respect to any theft, loss or damage to any Inventoried Baggage from and after the time of such inventory, and any other baggage, boxes or similar items left in the care of Purchaser. Facilitator shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees from and against any Liabilities incurred, with respect to any theft, loss or damage to any Inventoried Baggage prior to the time of such inventory, and any other baggage, boxes or similar items left in the care of the Hotel Owners. This Section 11.3 shall survive the Closing.
ARTICLE XII
DEFAULT; FAILURE OF CLOSING CONDITIONS
Section 12.1 Facilitator’s Default. If Facilitator or any Hotel Owner (if the Joinder is executed) is in material default prior to or on the Closing Date of any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement, which default is not caused by a Purchaser Default, such that the conditions to closing set forth in Article VIII cannot be satisfied (other than those conditions which by their nature will not be satisfied until the Closing) (a “Facilitator Default”), and Facilitator has not cured such Facilitator Default within three (3) Business Days after Facilitator’s receipt of written notice of such Facilitator Default from Purchaser, then Purchaser, provided that Purchaser is not in material default under this Agreement, as its sole and exclusive remedies for such Facilitator Default, may elect during the continuance of such Facilitator Default either: (i) to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Facilitator and Escrow Agent prior to the cure of any such Facilitator Default, in which case Escrow Agent shall refund the Xxxxxxx Money to Purchaser, and the Parties shall have no further rights or Liabilities under this Agreement except for those provisions which specifically provide that they survive the termination of this Agreement; (ii) to waive the default and proceed to Closing without any reduction in or setoff against the Purchase Price; or (iii) in the event the Merger Agreement Closing Condition, the Merger Agreement Execution Condition and the Joinder Condition have each been satisfied (unless the Joinder Condition shall have been waived by Purchaser in accordance with Section 8.4), to seek specific performance of the terms hereof, including,
without limitation, Facilitator’s and Hotel Owners’ obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Joinder (if applicable). In no event shall Facilitator or the Hotel Owners be personally liable for any damages.
While the Parties have agreed that New York law shall govern as to this Agreement, to the extent California law applies, as material consideration for Facilitator’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, Purchaser expressly waives any right under California Code of Civil Procedure, Part II, Title 4.5 (Sections 405 through 405.60), at common law or otherwise, to record or file a lis pendens or a notice of pendency of action or similar notice against all of any portion of the California Real Property.
Section 12.2 Purchaser’s Default. If (i) Purchaser has not deposited the Xxxxxxx Money within the time period provided in Section 3.2(a), and/or (ii) Purchaser is in material default of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement such that the conditions to closing set forth in Article VIII cannot be satisfied (other than those conditions which by their nature will not be satisfied until the Closing) (each a “Purchaser Default”), then Facilitator, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may elect to terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to Purchaser and Escrow Agent, and, with respect to a Purchaser Default described in subsections (ii) above, Escrow Agent shall then disburse the Xxxxxxx Money to Facilitator within one (1) Business Day after such termination. In the event of such termination, Facilitator (and the Hotel Owners) and Purchaser shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive termination. In no event shall Purchaser be personally liable for any damages.
PURCHASER AGREES THAT IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 12.2, THE DAMAGES THAT FACILITATOR WOULD SUSTAIN AS A RESULT OF SUCH TERMINATION WOULD BE DIFFICULT IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO ASCERTAIN. ACCORDINGLY, PURCHASER AGREES THAT FACILITATOR SHALL RETAIN THE XXXXXXX MONEY AS FULL AND COMPLETE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND AS FACILITATOR’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR SUCH TERMINATION; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT FACILITATOR SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THOSE OBLIGATIONS WHICH EXPRESSLY SURVIVE SUCH TERMINATION. WHILE THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED THAT NEW YORK LAW SHALL GOVERN AS TO THIS AGREEMENT, TO THE EXTENT CALIFORNIA LAW SHALL APPLY, THE PAYMENT OF SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 3275 OR 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO FACILITATOR PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677.

Section 12.3 Waiver of Damages. In no event shall either party be liable to the other for consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, whatever the nature of a breach by such breaching party of its obligations under this Agreement, and each party hereby waives all claims for consequential, punitive or exemplary damages it may have against the other party (other than in connection with an action or proceeding concerning the fraud or intentional misconduct by the other party).
Section 12.4 Alternative Transaction. In the event that, prior to December 31, 2018, LaSalle consummates a sale or other disposition (whether by merger, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) pursuant to which any Person other than Facilitator or its Affiliates acquires at least fifty percent (50%) of the capital stock or other equity interests of, or all or substantially all of the assets of, LaSalle (an “Alternative Transaction”), then, from and after the date of consummation of the Alternative Transaction, either Party may terminate this Agreement on Notice to the other Party and Escrow Agent, and Escrow Agent shall thereupon refund the Xxxxxxx Money to Purchaser, and the Parties shall have no further rights or Liabilities under this Agreement except for those provisions which specifically provide that they survive the termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE XIII
CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION
Section 13.1 Casualty. If the Properties or any portion thereof are damaged to a significant extent or destroyed by fire or any other casualty prior to Closing (a “Casualty”), Facilitator shall give written notice of such Casualty to Purchaser promptly after its receipt of knowledge of the occurrence of such Casualty. In the event of any Casualty, Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement, but shall proceed to Closing, in which case Facilitator shall (A) credit against the Purchase Price (1) the amount of the applicable insurance deductible plus (2) any costs of repair to, and reasonably estimated lost profits for, the applicable Property incurred (or lost) as a result of such Casualty that are not recoverable pursuant to the applicable casualty and lost profits insurance policy maintained by such Hotel Owner with respect to the applicable Hotel and relating to such Casualty (except if such Casualty is caused by Purchaser or any agent acting on behalf of Purchaser), and (B) transfer and assign to Purchaser all of the applicable Hotel Owner’s right, title and interest in and to all proceeds from all casualty and lost profits insurance policies maintained by such Hotel Owner with respect to the applicable Hotel and relating to such Casualty, except those proceeds allocable to costs incurred by, and lost profits of, the applicable Hotel Owner for the period prior to the Closing.
Section 13.2 Condemnation. In the event of any actual or threatened condemnation or taking pursuant to the power of eminent domain of all or any portion of the Real Properties, or any proposed sale in lieu thereof (a “Condemnation”), Facilitator shall give written notice of such Condemnation to Purchaser as soon as possible after Facilitator receives notice of such Condemnation. In the event of any Condemnation of any of the Real Properties, Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement, but shall proceed to Closing, in which case the applicable Hotel Owner shall assign to Purchaser all of such Hotel Owner’s right, title and interest in all proceeds and awards from such Condemnation.
