. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be terminated at any time upon the occurrence of any one of the following: (i) on or prior to the Closing Date by mutual consent of Seller and Buyer; (ii) on the Closing Date by Buyer, if satisfaction of any material condition to Buyer’s obligations under Section 7 of this Agreement have not been satisfied in all material respects (unless the failure results from Buyer’s breaching any material representation or covenant herein) and such condition shall not have been cured in material respects by Seller or waived by Buyer; (iii) on the Closing Date by Seller, if satisfaction of any material condition to Seller’s obligations under Section 8 of this Agreement have not been satisfied in all material respects (unless the failure results directly and primarily from Seller’s materially breaching its representations or covenants herein) and such breach shall not have been cured in material respects by Seller or waived by Buyer; (iv) by Buyer or Seller if the Closing Date shall not have taken place by September 30, 2024 unless extended by mutual agreement of Buyer and Seller, provided that the right to terminate pursuant to this subsection (v) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur by such date; or (vi) by Buyer pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof.
. This Agreement and all documents relating hereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications which may hereafter be executed, (b) the documents delivered at the Closing, and (c) financial information, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to Seller or to Buyer, may, subject to the provisions of Section 11.9 hereof, be reproduced by Seller and by Buyer by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, micro-card, miniature photographic or other similar process and Seller and Xxxxx may destroy any
original documents so reproduced. Seller and Buyer agree and stipulate that any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial, arbitral or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by Seller or Buyer in the regular course of business) and that any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.
. Following the Closing, the parties shall cooperate reasonably with each other and shall make available to the other, as reasonably requested in writing and at the expense of the requesting party, and to any taxing authority, information, records or documents relating to tax liabilities or potential tax liabilities of Seller for all periods on or prior to the Closing and any information which may be relevant to determining the amount payable under this Agreement, and shall preserve all such information, records and documents (to the extent a part of the Assets delivered to Buyer at Closing) at least until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof.
. Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates, and its and their respective officers and employees (collectively, “Seller Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs (including, without limitation, court costs) and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and fees of expert consultants and witnesses) (individually, a “Loss” and collectively, the “Losses”) that such Seller Indemnified Party incurs as a direct result of (i) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty by Buyer under this Agreement, (ii) any breach by Buyer of, or any failure by Buyer to perform any covenant or agreement in this Agreement or the Lease required to be performed by, Buyer under this Agreement or the Lease, unless waived by Seller at Closing, or (iii) any of the Retained Liabilities, or (iv) any claim made by a third party with respect to the operation of Trace Real Property after January 22, 2024 including without limitation, any claim that Buyer or its Affiliates violated applicable laws.
. Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates, and its and their respective officers and employees (collectively, “Buyer Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Losses that such Buyer Indemnified Party incurs as a direct result of (i) any material misrepresentation or breach of warranty by Seller under this Agreement, OR (ii) any material breach by Seller of, or any failure by Seller, to perform any covenant or agreement of, or required to be performed by, Seller under this Agreement, unless waived by Buyer at Closing.
. If any claim or liability is asserted in writing by a third party against a party entitled to indemnification under this Section 10 (the “Indemnified Party”) which would give rise to a claim under this Section 10, the Indemnified Party shall notify the person required to give the indemnity (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the same within five (5) Business Days of receipt of oral or written notice of such assertion of a claim or liability. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend a claim and control the defense, settlement, and prosecution of any litigation with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party, within five (5) Business Days after notice of such claim, fails to assume the defense of such claim, the Indemnified Party shall (upon further notice to the Indemnifying Party) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise, or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and at the risk of the Indemnifying Party, subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise, or final determination thereof. Anything in this Section 10.3 notwithstanding, (i) if there is a reasonable probability that a claim may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money
damages or other money payments, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, and settlement of such claim, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The foregoing rights and agreements shall be limited to the extent of any requirement of any third-party insurer or indemnitor. All parties agree to cooperate fully as necessary in the defense of such matters. Should the Indemnified Party fail to notify the Indemnifying Party in the time required above, the indemnity with respect to the subject matter of the required notice shall be limited to the damages that would have resulted absent the Indemnified Party’s failure to notify the Indemnifying Party in the time required above after taking into account such actions as could have been taken by the Indemnifying Party had it received timely notice from the Indemnified Party.
. If an Indemnified Party becomes aware of any breach of the representations or warranties of the Indemnifying Party hereunder or any other basis for indemnification under this Section 10, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the same within forty‑five (45) days after becoming aware of such breach or claim, specifying in detail the circumstances and facts which give rise to a claim under this Section 10. Should the Indemnified Party fail to notify the Indemnifying Party within the time frame required above, the indemnity with respect to the subject matter of the required notice shall be limited to the damages that would have nonetheless resulted absent the Indemnified Party’s failure to notify the Indemnifying Party in the time required above after taking into account such actions as could have been taken by the Indemnifying Party had it received timely notice from the Indemnified Party.
. The Claims Periods hereunder shall begin on the date hereof and terminate as follows: (i) with respect to Buyer’s Losses arising under Section 10.2, the Claims Period shall continue until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) with respect to Seller’s Losses, the Claims Period shall continue until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date, provided however, in case of each of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), that the Fundamental Representations shall survive the Closing indefinitely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to the close of business on the last day of the applicable Claims Period, an Indemnifying Party shall have been properly notified in writing 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 hereof. As used herein, the term “Fundamental Representations” shall mean the representations and warranties contained inSection 3.1 (Existence and Capacity), Section 3.2 (Powers; Consents; Absence of Conflicts with Other Agreements, Etc.), Section 3.3(Binding Agreement), 3.13 (No Broker), Section 4.1 (Powers; Consents, Absence of Conflicts with Other Agreements, Etc.), Section 4.2(Binding Agreement) and Section 11.7 (No Brokerage).
. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not make a claim against Seller for indemnification under this Agreement for Buyer Losses unless and until the aggregate amount of such Buyer Losses exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (the “Deductible”) in which event Buyer Indemnified Parties may claim indemnification for Buyer Losses in excess of the Deductible up to but not exceeding $100,000 but Buyer may, however, seek specific performance hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the maximum aggregate liability of Buyer for indemnification or for any other claim by Seller under Section 10.1 of this Agreement shall not exceed the aggregate of the Purchase Price, except in the case of a material breach of the Fundamental Representations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the maximum aggregate liability of Seller and/or its Affiliates for indemnification or for any other claim by Buyer against Seller under Section 10.2 of this Agreement shall not exceed the aggregate of the Purchase
Price. The limitations contained in thisSection 10.6 shall not apply to any indemnification claims arising underSection 10.1(i) or Section 10.2(i) as a result of any Actual Fraud of Buyer or Seller, respectively.
. The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Section 10, shall be reduced (a) to take account of any net tax benefit realized arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Loss, (b) by the insurance proceeds received or receivable with respect to any such Loss, and (c) by any other amount recovered from third parties by the Indemnified Party (or its Affiliates) with respect to any Loss. If any Indemnified Party shall have received any indemnification payment pursuant to this Section 10 with respect to any Loss, such Indemnified Party shall file in good faith claims with any insurers to recover reimbursement for any such Losses under any applicable insurance policy and shall pursue such recovery in good faith. If any Indemnified Party shall have received any payment pursuant to this Section 10 with respect to any Loss and has or shall subsequently have received insurance proceeds or other amounts with respect to such Loss, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting the amount of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of the amount previously so paid by the Indemnifying Party. If any Indemnified Party shall have received any payment pursuant to this Section 10 with respect to any Loss and has or shall subsequently have a claim against a third party other than any insurer, such Indemnified Party shall, upon request and at the option of the Indemnifying Party either (i) pursue such claim in good faith by adequate proceedings and promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting the amount of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery) or (ii) effectively assign such claim to the Indemnifying Party which will permit the Indemnifying Party to pursue such claim.
. Each Schedule to this Agreement and Exhibit to this Agreement shall be considered a part hereof as if set forth herein in full. From the date hereof until the Closing Date, Seller may update the Schedules to this Agreement and or Buyer may update Buyer’s Schedules, subject to the other party’s approval rights described below. Any other provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Schedules to this Agreement and all other Schedules or, Exhibits, or related document provided for in this Agreement and not delivered at the time of execution of this Agreement or which are incomplete at the time of execution of this Agreement shall be delivered or completed within ten (10) days after the date hereof or prior to the Closing, whichever is sooner. It shall be deemed a condition precedent to the obligations of the parties hereto that any material updating to Schedules, Exhibits or related Document shall meet with the good faith approval of the non-updating party, no such approval to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Each of the parties hereto, acting reasonably and in good faith, shall have three (3) Business Days following the date of receipt of each updating, amendment or change to any such Schedule, Exhibit or related Document within which to approve or disapprove such updating, amendment or change. If within such three (3) Business Day period either party gives written notice to the other of disapproval of any such updating, amendment or change that would have a material and adverse impact (giving the specific reasons therefor) on:
(i) Trace Real Property, or the ability of Buyer to perform its obligations under this Agreement, in the case of an updating, amendment or change proposed by Seller, or
(ii) Seller or the ability of Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement, in the case of an updating, amendment or change proposed by Xxxxx,
the other party shall have three (3) Business Days within which to modify or correct or to withdraw the updating, amendment or change disapproved. If the party to whom notice of disapproval is delivered is either unwilling or unable to modify or correct or to withdraw the disapproved updating, amendment or change and thereby remove
the reasons for the material and adverse impact specified for disapproval, then the disapproving party shall have three (3) Business Days within which to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of such termination to the other party in which event this Agreement shall be terminated. Absent any such termination, the proposed updating, amendment or change shall be deemed accepted.
. The provisions of this Agreement shall be self‑operative and shall not require further agreement by the parties except as may be herein specifically provided to the contrary; provided, however, at the request of a party, the other party or parties shall execute such additional instruments and take such additional actions as the requesting party may reasonably deem necessary to effectuate this Agreement. In addition and from time to time after Closing, Seller shall execute and deliver such other instruments of conveyance and transfer, and take such other actions as Buyer reasonably may request, more effectively to convey and transfer full right, title, and interest to, vest the Trace Real Property in Buyer. Additionally, each party shall cooperate and take reasonable steps to have its present officers and employees cooperate with the other party on and after Closing in furnishing information, evidence, testimony, and other assistance in connection with any action, proceeding, arrangement, or dispute of any nature with respect to matters pertaining to the items subject to this Agreement.
. Except as herein expressly provided to the contrary, whenever this Agreement requires any consent or approval to be given by a party, or whenever a party must or may exercise discretion, the parties agree that such consent or approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and such discretion shall be reasonably exercised.
. In the event a party elects to incur legal and other expenses to enforce any provision of this Agreement by judicial proceedings, the substantially prevailing party will be entitled to recover its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, expert and accountant fees and costs, and necessary disbursements at all court levels, in addition to any other relief to which such party shall be entitled.
. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Georgia without reference to its choice of law rules. By execution of this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that any dispute or claim either party has against the other arising out of or in any way connected with the rights, obligations, or responsibilities contained in the Agreement shall, to the extent such dispute or claim is not resolved through non-judicial means (such as business negotiations or alternative dispute resolution), be litigated in a court in the State of Georgia, and, accordingly, (i) Buyer and Seller hereby freely and voluntarily consent to the jurisdiction and venue of the Superior Court of Cobb County, Georgia, as the proper forum for the resolution of any such dispute or claim. between the parties and (ii) the Buyer and Seller hereby also freely and voluntarily consent to the jurisdiction and venue of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia as proper forum for resolution of any dispute or claim between the parties that may not be brought properly in Superior Court of Cobb County, Georgia.
. Subject to provisions herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors, and assigns. No party may assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that Buyer may, without the prior written consent of Seller, assign its rights and delegate its
duties hereunder to an Affiliate, but no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder except to the extent fully performed by such assignee.
. Subject to Section 3.14, Xxxxx and Seller each represent and warrant to the other that it has not engaged a broker in connection with the transactions described herein, except that Seller has engaged Centric Management Services, LLC. Each party agrees to be solely liable for and obligated to satisfy and discharge all loss, cost, damage, or expense arising out of claims for fees or commissions of brokers employed or alleged to have been employed by such party.
. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated and except as set forth herein, the parties agree that, except as set forth in Sections 10.1, 10.2,and 11.4: (i) Seller shall pay the fees, expenses, and disbursements of Seller and its agents, representatives, accountants, and legal counsel incurred in connection with the subject matter hereof and any amendments hereto and (ii) Buyer shall pay the fees, expenses, and disbursements of Buyer and its agents, representatives, accountants and legal counsel incurred in connection with the subject matter hereof and any amendments hereto and the cost of survey, title insurance and recording fees.
. It is understood by the parties hereto that the information, documents, and instruments delivered to Buyer by Seller and its agents and the information, documents, and instruments delivered to Seller by Buyer and its agents are of a confidential and proprietary nature. Prior to Closing Buyer will maintain the confidentiality of all information, documents, or instruments delivered to it by Seller or its agents in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or in compliance with the terms, conditions, and covenants hereof and will only disclose such information, documents, and instruments to its duly authorized officers, members, directors, representatives, and agents (including consultants, attorneys, accountants, lenders, and financing associates of each party) and any applicable governmental authorities in connection with any required notification or application for approval or exemption therefrom. Xxxxx agrees that if the transaction contemplated hereby is not consummated, it will return all such documents and instruments and all copies thereof in its possession or under its control to Seller and delete any electronic copies thereof from its files. Each of the parties hereto recognizes that any breach of this Section 11.9 would result in immediate and irreparable harm to Seller and its Affiliates and that therefore either Seller shall be entitled to an injunction to prohibit any such breach or anticipated breach, without the necessity of posting a bond, cash, or otherwise, in addition to pursuing its other legal and equitable remedies. Nothing in this Section 11.9, however, shall prohibit the use of such confidential information, documents, or information for such governmental filings as in the opinion of Seller’s counsel or Buyer’s counsel are required by law or governmental regulations or are otherwise required to be disclosed pursuant to applicable state law.
. Seller and Buyer mutually agree that no party hereto shall release, publish, or otherwise make available to the public in any manner whatsoever any information or announcement regarding the transactions herein contemplated without the prior written consent of Seller’s and Xxxxx’s Representatives, except for information and filings reasonably necessary to be directed to Government Entities to fully and lawfully effect the transactions herein contemplated or which are required of SunLink in connection with securities laws. Further, the initial press release regarding the transaction herein contemplated shall be by joint announcement of Seller and Buyer. Thereafter, either party may freely discuss information with third parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement which has been publicly disclosed pursuant to the foregoing.
. The waiver by any party of a breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as, or be construed to constitute, a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision hereof.
. Any notice, demand, or communication required, permitted, or desired to be given hereunder shall be deemed effectively given when personally delivered, when received by receipted overnight delivery, when received by email (confirmed by telephone), or five (5) days after being deposited in certified or registered United States mail, with postage prepaid thereon, return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

Seller and Buyer agree and stipulate that any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial, arbitral or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by Seller or Buyer in the regular course of business) and that any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.
. Following the Closing, the parties shall cooperate reasonably with each other and shall make available to the other, as reasonably requested in writing and at the expense of the requesting party, and to any taxing authority, information, records or documents relating to tax liabilities or potential tax liabilities of Seller for all periods on or prior to the Closing and any information which may be relevant to determining the amount payable under this Agreement, and shall preserve all such information, records and documents (to the extent a part of the Assets
delivered to Buyer at Closing) at least until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof.
. Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates, and its and their respective officers and employees (collectively, “Seller Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs (including, without limitation, court costs) and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and fees of expert consultants and witnesses) (individually, a “Loss” and collectively, the “Losses”) that such Seller Indemnified Party incurs as a direct result of (i) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty by Buyer under this Agreement, (ii) any breach by Buyer of, or any failure by Buyer to perform any covenant or agreement in this Agreement or the Lease required to be performed by, Buyer under this Agreement or the Lease, unless waived by Seller at Closing, or (iii) any of the Retained Liabilities, or (iv) any claim made by a third party with respect to the operation of Trace Real Property after January 22, 2024 including without limitation, any claim that Buyer or its Affiliates violated applicable laws.
. Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates, and its and their respective officers and employees (collectively, “Buyer Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Losses that such Buyer Indemnified Party incurs as a direct result of (i) any material misrepresentation or breach of warranty by Seller under this Agreement, OR (ii) any material breach by Seller of, or any failure by Seller, to perform any covenant or agreement of, or required to be performed by, Seller under this Agreement, unless waived by Buyer at Closing.
. If any claim or liability is asserted in writing by a third party against a party entitled to indemnification under this Section 10 (the “Indemnified Party”) which would give rise to a claim under this Section 10, the Indemnified Party shall notify the person required to give the indemnity (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the same within five (5) Business Days of receipt of oral or written notice of such assertion of a claim or liability. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend a claim and control the defense, settlement, and prosecution of any litigation with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party, within five (5) Business Days after notice of such claim, fails to assume the defense of such claim, the Indemnified Party shall (upon further notice to the Indemnifying Party) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise, or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and at the risk of the Indemnifying Party, subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise, or final determination thereof. Anything in this Section 10.3 notwithstanding, (i) if there is a reasonable probability that a claim may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other money payments, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, and settlement of such claim, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The foregoing rights and agreements shall be limited to the extent of any requirement of any third-party insurer or indemnitor. All parties agree to cooperate fully as necessary in the defense of such matters. Should the Indemnified Party fail to notify the Indemnifying Party in the time required above, the indemnity with respect to the subject matter of the required notice shall be limited to the damages that would have resulted absent the Indemnified Party’s failure to notify the Indemnifying Party in the time required above after taking into account such actions as could have been taken by the Indemnifying Party had it received timely notice from the Indemnified Party.
. If an Indemnified Party becomes aware of any breach of the representations or warranties of the Indemnifying Party hereunder or any other basis for indemnification under this Section 10, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the same within forty‑five (45) days after becoming aware of such breach or claim, specifying in detail the circumstances and facts which give rise to a claim under this Section 10. Should the Indemnified Party fail to notify the Indemnifying Party within the time frame required above, the indemnity with respect to the subject matter of the required notice shall be limited to the damages that would have nonetheless resulted absent the Indemnified Party’s failure to notify the Indemnifying Party in the time required above after taking into account such actions as could have been taken by the Indemnifying Party had it received timely notice from the Indemnified Party.
. The Claims Periods hereunder shall begin on the date hereof and terminate as follows: (i) with respect to Buyer’s Losses arising under Section 10.2, the Claims Period shall continue until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) with respect to Seller’s Losses, the Claims Period shall continue until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date, provided however, in case of each of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), that the Fundamental Representations shall survive the Closing indefinitely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to the close of business on the last day of the applicable Claims Period, an Indemnifying Party shall have been properly notified in writing 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 hereof. As used herein, the term “Fundamental Representations” shall mean the representations and warranties contained inSection 3.1 (Existence and Capacity), Section 3.2 (Powers; Consents; Absence of Conflicts with Other Agreements, Etc.), Section 3.3(Binding Agreement), 3.13 (No Broker), Section 4.1 (Powers; Consents, Absence of Conflicts with Other Agreements, Etc.), Section 4.2(Binding Agreement) and Section 11.7 (No Brokerage).
. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not make a claim against Seller for indemnification under this Agreement for Buyer Losses unless and until the aggregate amount of such Buyer Losses exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (the “Deductible”) in which event Buyer Indemnified Parties may claim indemnification for Buyer Losses in excess of the Deductible up to but not exceeding $100,000 but Buyer may, however, seek specific performance hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the maximum aggregate liability of Buyer for indemnification or for any other claim by Seller under Section 10.1 of this Agreement shall not exceed the aggregate of the Purchase Price, except in the case of a material breach of the Fundamental Representations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the maximum aggregate liability of Seller and/or its Affiliates for indemnification or for any other claim by Buyer against Seller under Section 10.2 of this Agreement shall not exceed the aggregate of the Purchase Price. The limitations contained in thisSection 10.6 shall not apply to any indemnification claims arising underSection 10.1(i) or Section 10.2(i) as a result of any Actual Fraud of Buyer or Seller, respectively.
. The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Section 10, shall be reduced (a) to take account of any net tax benefit realized arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Loss, (b) by the insurance proceeds received or receivable with respect to any such Loss, and (c) by any other amount recovered from third parties by the Indemnified Party (or its Affiliates) with respect to any Loss. If any Indemnified Party shall have received any indemnification payment pursuant to this Section 10 with respect to any Loss, such Indemnified Party shall file in good faith claims with any insurers to recover reimbursement for any such Losses under any applicable insurance policy and shall pursue such recovery in good faith. If any Indemnified Party shall have received any payment pursuant to this Section 10 with respect to any Loss and has or shall subsequently have received insurance proceeds or other amounts with respect to such Loss, then such Indemnified Party shall
promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting the amount of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of the amount previously so paid by the Indemnifying Party. If any Indemnified Party shall have received any payment pursuant to this Section 10 with respect to any Loss and has or shall subsequently have a claim against a third party other than any insurer, such Indemnified Party shall, upon request and at the option of the Indemnifying Party either (i) pursue such claim in good faith by adequate proceedings and promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting the amount of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery) or (ii) effectively assign such claim to the Indemnifying Party which will permit the Indemnifying Party to pursue such claim.
. Each Schedule to this Agreement and Exhibit to this Agreement shall be considered a part hereof as if set forth herein in full. From the date hereof until the Closing Date, Seller may update the Schedules to this Agreement and or Buyer may update Buyer’s Schedules, subject to the other party’s approval rights described below.

It shall be deemed a condition precedent to the obligations of the parties hereto that any material updating to Schedules, Exhibits or related Document shall meet with the good faith approval of the non-updating party, no such approval to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Each of the parties hereto, acting reasonably and in good faith, shall have three (3) Business Days following the date of receipt of each updating, amendment or change to any such Schedule, Exhibit or related Document within which to approve or disapprove such updating, amendment or change. If within such three (3) Business Day period either party gives written notice to the other of disapproval of any such updating, amendment or change that would have a material and adverse impact (giving the specific reasons therefor) on:
(i) Trace Real Property, or the ability of Buyer to perform its obligations under this Agreement, in the case of an updating, amendment or change proposed by Seller, or
(ii) Seller or the ability of Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement, in the case of an updating, amendment or change proposed by Xxxxx,
the other party shall have three (3) Business Days within which to modify or correct or to withdraw the updating, amendment or change disapproved. If the party to whom notice of disapproval is delivered is either unwilling or unable to modify or correct or to withdraw the disapproved updating, amendment or change and thereby remove the reasons for the material and adverse impact specified for disapproval, then the disapproving party shall have three (3) Business Days within which to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of such termination to the other party in which event this Agreement shall be terminated. Absent any such termination, the proposed updating, amendment or change shall be deemed accepted.
. The provisions of this Agreement shall be self‑operative and shall not require further agreement by the parties except as may be herein specifically provided to the contrary; provided, however, at the request of a party, the other party or parties shall execute such additional instruments and take such additional actions as the requesting party may reasonably deem necessary to effectuate this Agreement. In addition and from time to time after Closing, Seller shall execute and deliver such other instruments of conveyance and transfer, and take such other actions as Buyer reasonably may request, more effectively to convey and transfer full right, title, and interest to, vest the Trace Real Property in Buyer. Additionally, each party shall cooperate and take reasonable steps to have
its present officers and employees cooperate with the other party on and after Closing in furnishing information, evidence, testimony, and other assistance in connection with any action, proceeding, arrangement, or dispute of any nature with respect to matters pertaining to the items subject to this Agreement.
. Except as herein expressly provided to the contrary, whenever this Agreement requires any consent or approval to be given by a party, or whenever a party must or may exercise discretion, the parties agree that such consent or approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and such discretion shall be reasonably exercised.
. In the event a party elects to incur legal and other expenses to enforce any provision of this Agreement by judicial proceedings, the substantially prevailing party will be entitled to recover its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, expert and accountant fees and costs, and necessary disbursements at all court levels, in addition to any other relief to which such party shall be entitled.
. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Georgia without reference to its choice of law rules. By execution of this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that any dispute or claim either party has against the other arising out of or in any way connected with the rights, obligations, or responsibilities contained in the Agreement shall, to the extent such dispute or claim is not resolved through non-judicial means (such as business negotiations or alternative dispute resolution), be litigated in a court in the State of Georgia, and, accordingly, (i) Buyer and Seller hereby freely and voluntarily consent to the jurisdiction and venue of the Superior Court of Cobb County, Georgia, as the proper forum for the resolution of any such dispute or claim. between the parties and (ii) the Buyer and Seller hereby also freely and voluntarily consent to the jurisdiction and venue of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia as proper forum for resolution of any dispute or claim between the parties that may not be brought properly in Superior Court of Cobb County, Georgia.
. Subject to provisions herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors, and assigns. No party may assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that Buyer may, without the prior written consent of Seller, assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder to an Affiliate, but no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder except to the extent fully performed by such assignee.
. Subject to Section 3.14, Xxxxx and Seller each represent and warrant to the other that it has not engaged a broker in connection with the transactions described herein, except that Seller has engaged Centric Management Services, LLC. Each party agrees to be solely liable for and obligated to satisfy and discharge all loss, cost, damage, or expense arising out of claims for fees or commissions of brokers employed or alleged to have been employed by such party.

disbursements of Seller and its agents, representatives, accountants, and legal counsel incurred in connection with the subject matter hereof and any amendments hereto and (ii) Buyer shall pay the fees, expenses, and disbursements of Buyer and its agents, representatives, accountants and legal counsel incurred in connection with the subject matter hereof and any amendments hereto and the cost of survey, title insurance and recording fees.
. It is understood by the parties hereto that the information, documents, and instruments delivered to Buyer by Seller and its agents and the information, documents, and instruments delivered to Seller by Buyer and its agents are of a confidential and proprietary nature. Prior to Closing Buyer will maintain the confidentiality of all information, documents, or instruments delivered to it by Seller or its agents in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or in compliance with the terms, conditions, and covenants hereof and will only disclose such information, documents, and instruments to its duly authorized officers, members, directors, representatives, and agents (including consultants, attorneys, accountants, lenders, and financing associates of each party) and any applicable governmental authorities in connection with any required notification or application for approval or exemption therefrom. Xxxxx agrees that if the transaction contemplated hereby is not consummated, it will return all such documents and instruments and all copies thereof in its possession or under its control to Seller and delete any electronic copies thereof from its files. Each of the parties hereto recognizes that any breach of this Section 11.9 would result in immediate and irreparable harm to Seller and its Affiliates and that therefore either Seller shall be entitled to an injunction to prohibit any such breach or anticipated breach, without the necessity of posting a bond, cash, or otherwise, in addition to pursuing its other legal and equitable remedies. Nothing in this Section 11.9, however, shall prohibit the use of such confidential information, documents, or information for such governmental filings as in the opinion of Seller’s counsel or Buyer’s counsel are required by law or governmental regulations or are otherwise required to be disclosed pursuant to applicable state law.
. Seller and Buyer mutually agree that no party hereto shall release, publish, or otherwise make available to the public in any manner whatsoever any information or announcement regarding the transactions herein contemplated without the prior written consent of Seller’s and Xxxxx’s Representatives, except for information and filings reasonably necessary to be directed to Government Entities to fully and lawfully effect the transactions herein contemplated or which are required of SunLink in connection with securities laws.
