ARTICLE I
ASSETS, LIABILITIES, AND OTHER MATTERS

1.1 Transferred Assets. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined below), Transferor will transfer, free and clear of any charge, claim, equitable interest, license, lien, option, pledge, security interest, mortgage, encroachment, easement or restriction of any kind (“Encumbrance”), to New Manager all of Transferor’s right, title and interest in and to all assets, properties and rights used or held for use in the management and operation by Transferor of the Facility (the “Business”), other than Excluded MTA Assets, including, but not limited to, the following: (a) all furniture, fixtures, furnishings, equipment, computers, machinery, mechanical systems, security and alarm systems, nurse call systems, automobiles, vans, buses or other vehicles or equipment used in connection with the Facility and the Business and all other tangible personal property located at or used in connection with the operation of the Facility, including, without limitation, all supplies, inventory, consumables, perishable and non-perishable food products, and other similar property used in the operation of the Facility (“Inventory”); (b) all contracts used or held for use in the Business, other than the Excluded Contracts (collectively, the “Assumed Contracts”); (c) subject to Section 1.7, all books, data and records (including Word files, Excel files, PowerPoint files and other electronic versions thereof) related exclusively to the operation of the Facility, including emails, financial and accounting records, contacts, calendars, customer lists, referral source lists, regulatory surveys and reports, incident tracking reports, advertising and marketing materials and competitive analyses, all policy and procedure manuals, all records and reports (except for such records and reports where transfer is prohibited by applicable laws) relating to any or all residents residing at the Facility from time to time on or after the Execution Date, but only to the extent such residents remain residents on the Closing Date, or relating to residents residing at the Facility prior to the Execution Date but who are the subject of any claim, inquiry, audit, order, or proceeding by any governmental authority or otherwise, made or occurring on or after the Execution Date, all employee records, but only to the extent such employee records are for Hired Employees, all leads regarding prospective residents, all blueprints, construction and architects’ plans and drawings, and all engineering data and reports; and copies of all such books, data and records that relate not only to the operation of the Facility but also to operations retained by Transferor or its affiliates; (d) all security deposits, prepaid rent, move-in fees, utility deposits, other prepaid items and deposits related to the Facility and residents’ personal funds accounts, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable residency agreements, tenant leases and any other written agreements provided to New Manager under which personal funds are held (collectively, “Trust Funds”); (e) (i) the trademarks, trade names, service marks, domain names and all variations thereof used exclusively in connection with the Business; (ii) all telephone and facsimile numbers relating solely to the Facility (including all “800” numbers) and all post office box addresses associated solely with the Facility; and (iii) all other intellectual property used exclusively in connection with the Business; and (f) all right, title and interest of Transferor in any and all other items of tangible and intangible personal property used or useful in connection with the leasing, use, operation, management or maintenance of the Facility, and all goodwill of Transferor associated with the Business (collectively, “Transferred Assets”); provided, however, that to the extent any of the foregoing assets are leased assets, or vendor owned assets, then such assets shall be excluded from the Transferred Assets, unless New Manager agrees to assume the underlying leases or vendor contracts, as applicable, related to such leased assets or vendor owned assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the following assets of Transferor shall not be transferred to New Manager and shall not constitute Transferred Assets: cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, employee benefit plans, capital stock, tax refunds, equipment or other items that are leased pursuant to leases that are not assigned to New Manager, and other items and contracts specifically designated as an excluded asset on Schedule 1.1 (collectively, the “Excluded MTA Assets” ), which such schedule may be updated by New Manager prior to Closing, including to add contracts that New Manager elects to not assume. In furtherance of the foregoing, at the Closing, Transferor will execute and deliver to New Manager a Xxxx of Sale and Assignment and Assumption Agreement (“Xxxx of Sale”) substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1.

1.2 Excluded Liabilities. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, New Manager shall not assume any claims, lawsuits, liabilities, obligations or debts of Transferor (“Excluded Liabilities”), including without limitation: (a) malpractice or other tort claims to the extent based on acts or omissions of Transferor or its employees or contractors occurring before the Effective Time, or claims for breach of contract or for indemnification to the extent based on acts or omissions of Transferor or its employees or contractors occurring before the Effective Time; (b) any accounts payable, taxes, or other obligation or liability of Transferor to pay money incurred by Transferor prior to the Effective Time; and (c) any other obligations or liabilities incurred by Transferor prior to the Effective Time. Transferor agrees to timely perform and discharge all Excluded Liabilities.

1.3 Transfer of Trust Funds.

(a) At the Closing, Transferor shall deliver to New Manager a list that, to the best of its knowledge, will be a true, correct and complete description of any Trust Funds held by Transferor as of the Effective Time.

(b) Effective as of the Effective Time, Transferor shall transfer all of Transferor’s right, title and interest in the Trust Funds and New Manager shall assume all of Transferor’s right, title and interest in and to the Trust Funds in trust for the residents or tenants, as applicable, in accordance with applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. Within ten (10) business days after the Closing Date, Transferor will reconcile and pay over the Trust Funds to New Manager, in trust for the residents or tenants, as applicable, along with a true, correct and complete accounting of the Trust Funds.

1.4 Employees.

(a) Attached hereto as Schedule 1.4 is a schedule (“Employee Schedule”) which reflects, as of the Execution Date, a listing of all Facility-based employment positions, rates of pay, earned but unused paid time off (“PTO”) and original hire dates, as well as which, if any, employees are then on medical disability or leaves of absence and their status as exempt or non-exempt. Transferor will terminate the employment of each of the Facility Employees (as defined below) as of the Effective Time. Transferor represents and warrants the Employee Schedule is true, accurate and complete as of the Execution Date and will be true, accurate and complete as of the Effective Time (provided, that Transferor shall update such Employee Schedule no later than three business days prior to Closing to reflect changes thereto between the Execution Date and the Closing Date).

(b) On or before the Effective Time, New Manager or its affiliate or a third-party contractor designated by New Manager (“New Employer”) shall offer to hire, on a probationary basis, each of Transferor’s employees who is employed at the Facility as of the Effective Time (“Facility Employees”), including any such employees who are on medical disability or leaves of absence and who worked at the Facility immediately prior to such disability or leave. Any such offer of employment to a Facility Employee by New Employer shall be to perform comparable services, in such position as is comparable to the position such Facility Employee held with Transferor as of the Effective Time, provided that New Employer may offer compensation to such Facility Employees at levels commensurate with compensation levels paid to other employees of New Employer or its affiliates holding comparable positions so long as any change in compensation levels does not result in any constructive discharge of any such Facility Employee or the breach of any employment contract assumed by New Employer hereunder. Transferor shall have the right (but not the obligation) to employ or offer to employ any Facility Employee who declines New Employer’s offer of employment.

(c) New Employer shall hire at the Effective Time, on a probationary basis, each Facility Employee who elects to accept employment with New Employer in accordance with the terms of Section 1.4(b) (all of such employees who accept employment with New Employer being herein called “Hired Employees”) and shall indemnify and hold Transferor harmless from and against any losses arising from or relating to any subsequent termination of any such employee by New Employer.

(d) Transferor will be responsible at Transferor’s own cost and expense for (i) the payment of any termination or severance payment for any current or former employee of Transferor who is not a Hired Employee and for all amounts owing or accruing with respect to any employee prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the provision of health plan continuation coverage (including administrative and notice obligations) under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), or any other law, under any benefit plan with respect to any M&A qualified beneficiaries as such term is defined in Section 54.4980 B-9 (Q&A 4) of U.S. Treasury regulations. Except as set forth in Section 1.4(f), Transferor will be liable for any claims made or incurred by its employees and their beneficiaries under any benefit plan maintained by or for the benefit of Transferor, and neither New Employer nor its affiliates will have any responsibility, liability or obligation, to such employees, their beneficiaries or any other person with respect to any benefit plan maintained by or for Transferor.

(e) Transferor shall pay to each Facility Employee, on that date which, but for the Closing, would have been the next regularly scheduled payroll date for such employee following the Closing, an amount equal to any and all accrued salary earned by such employee as of the Effective Time.

(f) New Employer shall assume liability for all earned but unused PTO of each Hired Employee as of the Closing Date. At the Closing, Transferor shall pay to New Employer an amount equal to the cash value of all earned but unused PTO for the Hired Employees (as determined in accordance with Transferor’s policies and procedures and subject to any applicable collective bargaining agreement) as of such date and is assumed by New Employer. Transferor shall pay to each Facility Employee who is not a Hired Employee, the cash value of all earned but unused PTO for such employee.

(g) Nothing in this Agreement shall create any rights in favor of any person not a party hereto, including the Facility Employees, or constitute an employment agreement or condition of employment for any employee of Transferor.

(h) As of the Effective Time, all Hired Employees who, immediately prior to the Effective Time, participated in group health insurance coverage sponsored by Transferor, shall be eligible for participation in a group health plan (as defined for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 4980B) established and maintained by New Employer. To the extent permissible under the plan of New Employer, all such Hired Employees shall be covered pursuant to New Employer’s group health and/or benefit plan, unless they are under a waiting period with Transferor at the Effective Time, in which case they shall be required to complete their waiting period while under New Employer’s plan or in accordance with the terms of New Employer’s benefit plan.

(i) New Manager acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of Sections 1.4(b) and (c) are designed, in part, to ensure that Transferor is not required to give notice to employees of the Facility at the “closure” thereof under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (the “WARN Act”) or any comparable state law.

(j) Subsequent to the Effective Time, New Manager shall allow Transferor and its agents and representatives to have reasonable access (upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours) to all Hired Employees, to the extent reasonably necessary to enable Transferor to investigate and defend employee or other claims, or for any other reasonable purpose.

1.5 Management Fees and Accounts Receivable.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Assignment and Assumption of Management Agreement, Transferor owns and shall retain its right, title and interest in and to all unpaid fees under the Management Agreement that relate to services provided prior to the Effective Time, including, but not limited to, any fees arising from rate adjustments which relate to the period prior to the Effective Time even if such adjustments occur on or after the Effective Time.

(b) Payments received by Transferor or New Manager after the Effective Time with respect to the Facility from the Tenant or from third-party payors, such as the Medicare Program, the Medicaid Program, the Veteran’s Administration, or managed care companies or health maintenance organizations or on behalf of private pay patients, shall be handled as follows:

(i) if the accompanying remittance advice indicates, or if the parties agree, that the payments relate solely to periods prior to the Effective Time, then (A) in the event that such payments are received by New Manager, New Manager shall promptly deposit such payments directly into Transferor’s operating account for the Facility (but in any event, not later than ten (10) business days following the finalization of the “Due To/Due From” Schedule referenced in Section 1.5(f), or if after 180 days, thirty (30) days following receipt of such payment, and until so deposited, shall be held in trust for the benefit of Transferor and will be paid to Transferor) and (B) in the event that such payments are received by Transferor, Transferor shall retain the payments;

(ii) if the accompanying remittance advice indicates, or if the parties agree, that the payments relate solely to periods after the Effective Time, then (A) in the event that such payments are received by New Manager, New Manager shall retain the payments and (B) in the event that such payments are received by Transferor, Transferor shall promptly forward such payments to New Manager (but in any event, not later than ten (10) business days following the finalization of the “Due To/Due From” Schedule referenced in Section 1.5(f), or if after 180 days, thirty (30) days following receipt of such payment, and until so deposited, shall be held in trust for the benefit of New Manager and will be paid to New Manager without setoff or withholding of any kind);

(iii) if the accompanying remittance advice indicates, or if the parties agree, that the payments relate to periods both prior to and after the Effective Time, then, (A) if such payment is received by New Manager, New Manager shall promptly deposit the same in its depository institution for negotiation and collection and promptly following receipt by New Manager of collected funds of such payment (but in any event, not later than ten (10) business days following the finalization of the “Due To/Due From” Schedule referenced in Section 1.5(f), or if after 180 days, thirty (30) days following receipt of such payment) New Manager shall deposit into Transferor’s operating account for the Facility the amount of such payment relating to periods prior to the Effective Time, and (B) if such payment is received by Transferor, Transferor shall promptly deposit the same in its depository institution for negotiation and collection and promptly following receipt by Transferor of collected funds of such payment (but in any event, not later than ten (10) business days following the finalization of the “Due To/Due From” Schedule referenced in Section 1.5(f), or if after 180 days, thirty (30) days following receipt of such payment) Transferor shall forward to New Manager the amount of such payment relating to periods following the Effective Time.

(iv) With respect to a payment received within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, if the accompanying remittance advice does not indicate the period to which a payment relates or if there is no accompanying remittance advice and if the parties do not otherwise agree as to how to apply such payment, then, for the purposes of subparagraph (iii), above, the parties will be deemed to have agreed that such payment shall be applied first to the payor’s pre-Effective Time balances and that any remaining portion shall be applied to such payor’s post-Effective Time balances. With respect to non-designated payments received more than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, such payments will first be applied 100% to any balances relating to post-Effective Time, with the excess, if any, applied to the extent of any balances due for services rendered pre-Effective Time.

(v) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any payments received with respect to the Quality Incentive Payment Program (a “QIPP Payment”) within two (2) years after the Closing Date, if the accompanying remittance advice does not indicate the period to which such QIPP Payment relates or if there is no accompanying remittance advice and if the parties do not otherwise agree as to how to apply such QIPP Payment, then, for the purposes of subparagraph (iii), above, the parties will be deemed to have agreed that such QIPP Payment shall be applied first to the payor’s pre-Effective Time balances and that any remaining portion shall be applied to such payor’s post-Effective Time balances. With respect to non-designated QIPP Payments received more than two (2) years after the Closing Date, such QIPP Payments will first be applied 100% to any balances relating to post-Effective Time, with the excess, if any, applied to the extent of any balances due for services rendered pre-Effective Time.

(c) If the parties mutually determine that any payment hereunder was misapplied by the parties, the party which erroneously received said payment shall promptly remit the same to the other after said determination is made.

(d) For a period of two (2) years after the Effective Time, New Manager and Transferor shall, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, have the right to inspect all cash receipts and other books and records (including, without limitation, bank statements) of the other respective party in order to confirm the other party’s compliance with the obligations imposed on it under this Section.

(e) Failure to forward to the other any payment received by such party in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.5, shall entitle the other party (among all other remedies allowed by law and this Agreement) to interest on the amount owed at the rate of 12% per annum, simple interest, until such payment has been paid. The payment of any interest imposed under this Section 1.5(e), if any, shall be made together with the underlying payment therefor.

(f) New Manager and Transferor shall cause the Facility staff to cooperate and assist Transferor, consistent with past practice, in the preparation of Transferor’s final month-end closing processing and billing after Closing at no cost to Transferor. New Manager and Transferor agree to prepare and provide to each other a “Due To/Due From” Schedule no less than once per month for the period of one hundred eighty (180) days following the Effective Time with supporting documentation, so that each party hereto can determine the status of funds owed to it pursuant to this Section 1.5, and thereafter as necessary (but no less than once per month) until Transferor has collected all amounts due to it.

(g) In connection with services rendered to residents with pending Medicaid applications (collectively, the “Pending Medicaid Applicants”), New Manager shall (i) provide Transferor with a written monthly progress report on the Medicaid application status of each Pending Medicaid Applicant until such time as all Pending Medicaid Applicants have been approved or denied by Medicaid, and (ii) if New Manager receives any notice or correspondence regarding such applications, New Manager shall provide such notice or correspondence to Transferor within five (5) business days following receipt. New Manager shall cooperate with and provide Transferor with such documents and information as Transferor shall reasonably request to enable Transferor to contest any denial or negative determinations by Medicaid with respect to the Pending Medicaid Applicants.

(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, New Manager acknowledges and agrees that, for a period of thirty (30) says following the Closing Date, all revenue collected into the Depository Account (as defined in the Management Agreement) shall continue to be transferred over to the Facility Operating Account (as defined in the Management Agreement) controlled by Transferor, and that Transferor shall remit and reconcile such collections in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.5.

1.6 Prorations.

(a) Following the Closing, utility charges for the billing period in which the Effective Time occurs, real and personal property taxes attributable to the Facility, and any other items of revenue or expense attributable to the Facility (“Prorated Items”) shall be prorated between Transferor and New Manager as of the Effective Time and when such charges become payable consistent with Transferor’s past practice. In general, such prorations shall be made so as to reimburse Transferor for prepaid expenses to the extent such expense is attributable to periods after the Effective Time and to charge Transferor for expenses accrued but unpaid as of the Effective Time.

(b) All such prorations shall be made on the basis of actual days elapsed in the relevant accounting, billing or revenue period and shall be based on the most recent information available to Transferor.

(c) Immediately after the Effective Time, New Manager will transfer all xxxxx cash from the Facility or its operating accounts to a deposit account designated by Transferor. New Manager shall be responsible to provide any xxxxx cash requirements of the Facility from and after the Effective Time.

1.7 Access to Records.

(a) All patient medical records, financial records and employee records relating to the Facility that are in Transferor’s possession or control shall remain at the Facility as of the Effective Time. Nothing herein shall be construed as precluding Transferor from removing from the Facility as of the Effective Time (i) the originals of financial records that relate to its management at the Facility (provided that copies thereof will be remain at the Facility and be accessible to New Manager) and/or to its overall corporate operations, and (ii) the records of former employees of the Facility who will not be hired by New Manager. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of the records described in clause (ii), Transferor shall give New Manager reasonable access to any information in any such removed records as New Manager may reasonably demonstrate is necessary for the efficient operation, maintenance and defense of the Facility by New Manager.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, subsequent to the Effective Time, New Manager shall allow Transferor and its agents and representatives to have reasonable access to (upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours), and to make copies of, at Transferor’s expense, the books and records and supporting material of the Facility relating to any period prior to the Effective Time, to the extent reasonably necessary to enable Transferor to investigate and defend employee or other claims, to file or defend tax returns and to verify accounts receivable collections due Transferor, or for any other reasonable purpose.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, Transferor shall be entitled to remove the originals of any records delivered to New Manager, for purposes of litigation involving a resident or employee to whom such record relates, if an officer of a court of competent jurisdiction, agency official or counsel for Transferor certifies that such original must be produced in order to comply with applicable law or the order of a court of competent jurisdiction in connection with such litigation. Any record so removed shall promptly be returned to New Manager following its use.

(d) New Manager agrees to maintain at its own expense all such books, records and other material comprising records of the Facility’s management prior to the Effective Time that have been received by New Manager from Transferor or otherwise, including, but not limited to, resident records and records of resident funds, to the extent required by law, but in no event for less than three (3) years.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for a period of sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Transferor shall, upon request and at New Manager’s expense, (i) use reasonable efforts to permit the transfer of the Facility’s current electronic resident medical records data (including MDS history), in readily available form for use in New Manager’s computer applications, and (ii) provide New Manager with view-and-print access to Transferor’s electronic medical records system, to enable New Manager, at its expense, to print and take physical delivery of such resident medical records.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the right to inspect and obtain any records from Transferor or New Manager shall be subject to all provisions of law regarding confidentiality and privacy. Transferor and New Manager acknowledge and agree that the definition of “health care operations” set forth in 45 CFR 164.501, pursuant to HIPAA, as that term is defined in Section 3.9(d) of this Agreement, permits the parties to use and disclose individually identifiable resident and employee health information in order to assure a smooth transition of facility operations. Transferor and New Manager agree to comply with, and to cause their respective employees, subcontractors and agents to comply with, applicable state and federal laws and regulations relating to the security, protection and privacy of individually identifiable health care information, including, without limitation, the regulations promulgated pursuant to HIPAA, and any amendments to those regulations that may occur from time to time. Transferor agrees that their employees, subcontractors, and agents shall maintain the confidentiality of resident and employee records and medical information, in accordance with applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations. New Manager and their employees, subcontractors, or agents agree not to disclose protected health information to any third-party except where permitted or required by law or where the resident or employee expressly approves such disclosure in writing.

1.8 Unassigned Contracts. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as an attempt to agree to assign any contract, certificate, license or other asset that is in law or by agreement non-assignable without the consent of the other party or parties thereto, or of any governmental authority, as the case may be, unless such consent will be given. Transferor will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such necessary consents. In order, however, that the full value of every such contract, certificate, license or other asset and all claims and demands under such contracts may be realized, Transferor hereby covenants and agrees with New Manager that Transferor will, at the request and under the direction of New Manager, in the name of Transferor or otherwise, as New Manager will specify and as will be permitted by law, take all such reasonable actions and do or cause to be done all such reasonable things as shall be necessary or proper (i) to preserve the rights and obligations of Transferor under such contracts, certificates, licenses and other assets, and (ii) for, and to facilitate, the collection of the moneys due and payable for the period after the Closing Date, and to become due and payable, to Transferor in and under every such contract and in respect of every such claim and demand for the period after the Closing Date, and Transferor will hold the same for the benefit of, and will pay the same over to, New Manager.

1.9 Reserved.

1.10 Limitation. New Manager acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or the Transferor’s Transaction Documents, Transferor makes no representation, warranty, or covenant whatsoever with respect to any matter, thing or event. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to any express representations and warranties set forth herein or in the Transferor’s Transaction Documents, New Manager shall accept the Transferred Assets and the Facility in their “AS IS” “WHERE IS” condition as of the Execution Date, subject to normal wear and tear.

SURVIVAL AND INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Indemnification by Transferor. Transferor shall defend, indemnify and hold New Manager and New Manager’s shareholders, members, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents and their respective representatives, heirs and assigns (the “New Manager Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any claim, action, suit, proceeding, investigation, liability, damage, loss, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fee and reasonable disbursements of counsel and actual costs and whether or not involving a third party claim) (collectively, a “Loss”) resulting from (i) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation on the part of Transferor contained in this Agreement or in any of the agreements, certificates or other instruments attached hereto; (ii) the occupancy, management or operation of the Facility prior to the Effective Time; and (iii) any Excluded Liabilities.

8.2 Indemnification by New Manager. New Manager shall defend, indemnify and hold Transferor and Transferor’s members, managers, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, and their respective representatives, heirs and assigns (the “Transferor Indemnified Parties”), harmless from and against, any Loss incurred by the foregoing parties as a result of (i) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation on the part of New Manager contained in this Agreement or in any agreement, certificate or other instrument attached hereto; (ii) the occupancy, management or operation of the Facility by New Manager from and after the Effective Time; and (iii) any failure by New Manager to pay or perform any obligations or liabilities assumed by New Manager pursuant to this Agreement including, but not limited to, obligations or liabilities under the Assumed Contracts (to the extent assumed in accordance with the Assignment and Assumption of Contracts); provided, however, in no event shall New Manager be required to indemnify the Transferor Indemnified Parties for any matter for which a New Manager Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.1.

8.3 Procedure. A party claiming indemnification under this Article VIII (the “Asserting Party”) must promptly notify in writing the party from which indemnification is sought (the “Defending Party”) of the nature and basis of such claim for indemnification. If such claim relates to a claim, litigation or other action by a third-party against Asserting Party, (“Third-Party Claim”), Defending Party may elect to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim promptly after receipt of the notice referred to above at its own expense with counsel selected by Defending Party and reasonably satisfactory to Asserting Party; provided, however, that the Defending Party may not assume the defense of such Third Party Claim unless (i) the Defending Party gives written notice to the Asserting Party within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the claim notice that the Defending Party will indemnify the Asserting Party from and against the entirety of any and all Losses the Asserting Party ultimately suffers resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Third Party Claim involves only claims for monetary damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief against the Asserting Party, (iii) the Asserting Party reasonably concludes, based upon advice of counsel that a conflict does not exist between the Asserting Party and the Defending Party in connection with the defense of the Third Party Claim, (iv) the Third Party Claim does not relate to or otherwise arise in connection with taxes, any criminal or regulatory enforcement action or otherwise involve a claim by a governmental authority, (v) settlement of, an adverse judgment with respect to or the Defending Party’s conduct of the defense of the Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Asserting Party, likely to be adverse to the Asserting Party’s reputation or continuing business interests (including the Asserting Party’s relationships with current or potential customers, suppliers, payors, Tenant or other parties material to the conduct of the business of the Asserting Party) and (vi) the Defending Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently and in good faith. If Defending Party assumes the defense of the Third-Party Claim and diligently defends such Third-Party Claim, Defending Party shall not be liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for Asserting Party incurred thereafter in connection with the Third-Party Claim. To the extent required by applicable law, the Asserting Party shall act reasonably and in good faith in an effort to mitigate any Loss for which it is entitled to indemnification. Failure of the Asserting Party to promptly notify the Defending Party of a claim hereunder shall not waive the rights of the Asserting Party to indemnification hereunder, except to the extent that the Defending Party can demonstrate actual material loss or prejudice as a result of such failure or delay. Defending Party shall not settle any Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Asserting Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

8.4 Limitations.

(a) EXCEPT AS SUCH MAY BE PART OF ANY CLAIM OF ANY THIRD-PARTY, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL TRANSFEROR, NEW MANAGER OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE IN ANY WAY FOR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (UNLESS PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARE ACTUALLY AWARDED TO A THIRD-PARTY), OR ANY EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE ACTION IS FOUNDED IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, AND BOTH PARTIES AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER ASSERT, CLAIM, DEMAND OR OTHERWISE REQUEST SUCH DAMAGES.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, absent fraud, no individual officer, director, member, managing member, shareholder, equity holder, partner, employee, agent, or representative of any party hereto shall have any liability for any claims of the other party related to this Agreement, or any agreements, certificates, or instruments delivered in connection herewith, in any way.

(c) Except with respect to a claim for indemnification arising as a result of a breach of a Fundamental Representation, in no event shall a New Member Indemnified Party be entitled to Losses in excess of the amounts deposited with the Escrow Agent and the amounts guaranteed under the Guaranty (i.e., together with the amounts in escrow, $150,000 in the aggregate) with respect to a claim for indemnification arising as a result of a breach of a representation or warranty.

8.5 Exclusive Remedy. Except in the case of fraud, the remedies provided in this Article VIII and in the Other Transaction Documents shall be the sole and exclusive remedies that may be available to a party or an Asserting Party with respect to any matters arising under or relating to this Agreement, any document executed and delivered pursuant to the provisions hereof and the transactions contemplated herein.

8.6 Insurance Recoveries . No party shall be required to indemnify the other with respect to any Losses for which third-party recoveries or insurance proceeds are paid to Asserting Party, regardless of the identity of the holder of such insurance policy or benefit; provided, however, that if the insurance proceeds or third-party recoveries do not satisfy the entire amount of the Losses, then the provisions of this Section shall be applicable to such unsatisfied portion.

8.7 Survival. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, and in any agreements, certificates or other instruments delivered pursuant hereto, shall survive Closing for a period of twelve months following the Closing provided, however, that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 shall survive indefinitely and the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.9 shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (such representations, the “Fundamental Representations”). The covenants and other obligations set forth herein shall survive until fully performed. Delivery of a claim notice meeting the requirements pursuant to Section 8.3 with respect to a claim or potential claim or matter for which indemnification may be required pursuant to this Article VIII, and prior to the expiration of applicable survival period (if any) will be sufficient to cause any such matter or claim specified therein to continue to survive for purposes of resolving the matter or claim specified therein, it being the agreement of the parties that an indemnified party will not be required to file a lawsuit, begin an arbitration or commence another formal or informal action or other proceeding in order to cause such matter or claim to survive.

8.8 Knowledge and Investigation. The right of any party to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII is not to be affected by the Closing or any waiver of any Closing condition hereunder or any investigation conducted for or on behalf of any party, or knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time by any party or any representatives of any party, whether before or after the Closing, with respect to the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement.

8.9 Materiality; Strict Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for purposes of calculating the amount of Losses to which an indemnified party is entitled under this Article VIII, the terms “material,” “materiality,” and “material adverse effect” and similar phrases are to be disregarded.

8.10 Right of Set-Off. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.4(c), the New Manager Indemnified Parties may set-off any amount to which they may be entitled under this Article VIII against amounts otherwise payable by New Manager Indemnified Parties to Transferor or its affiliates. The exercise of such right of set-off by such New Manager Indemnified Parties in good faith, whether or not ultimately determined to be justified, will not constitute an event of default under any contract or agreement between any New Manager Indemnified Party and Transferor or its affiliates. Neither the exercise of nor the failure to exercise such right of set-off will constitute an election of remedies or limit the New Manager Indemnified Parties in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it. For the avoidance of doubt, the exercise of such right to set-off shall not preclude Transferor from challenging and disputing the indemnity claim or the exercise of the right to set-off hereunder and to the extent successful in such challenge or dispute, such set-off amount (or portion thereof) will be immediately returned to Transferor or its applicable affiliate.

ARTICLE IX

9.2 Effect of Termination. If a party terminates this Agreement because one of the conditions precedent to its obligations hereunder has not been satisfied, or if this Agreement is terminated by mutual consent, this Agreement shall become null and void without any liability of any party to the others; provided, that if such termination is pursuant to Section 9.1(a) as a result of a breach by any of the parties hereto of any of its representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement, nothing herein shall affect the non-breaching party’s right to damages on account of such other party’s breach.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the placement of general advertisements that may be targeted to a particular geographic or technical area, but are not targeted specifically towards employees of any Buyer, shall not be deemed to be a solicitation for purposes of this Section 0.

Non-Solicitation of Business Relationships.

Representations and Warranties of the Restricted Parties. Each Restricted Party hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 5 to Buyers:

Authority; Enforceability. Each Restricted Party has all necessary legal capacity, power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform such Restricted Party’s obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by each Restricted Party and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Restricted Parties, enforceable against any Restricted Party in accordance with its terms.

[Signature Page to Restrictive Covenant Agreement]

No Conflict. The execution and delivery by each Restricted Party of this Agreement do not, and the performance of such Restricted Party’s obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall not, conflict with or violate any law or order, as applicable, or agreement by which any Restricted Party’s properties, rights or assets are bound or affected.

Consultation with Counsel. Each Restricted Party has consulted with legal counsel regarding the Non-Competition and Related Covenants and, based on such consultation, has determined and hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Non-Competition and Related Covenants are reasonable in terms of duration, scope and area restrictions and are necessary to protect the substantial goodwill acquired by Buyers, the Protected Information and the substantial consideration paid to the Restricted Parties pursuant to the MTA and PSA and in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby.

No Restriction on Earning a Living. Each Restricted Party hereby acknowledges that the provisions of Section 0, Section 0 and Section 0 do not preclude any Restricted Party from earning a livelihood, nor do they unreasonably impose limitations on any Restricted Party’s ability to earn a living. In addition, each Restricted Party hereby acknowledges that the potential harm to the Buyers of non-enforcement of this Agreement outweighs any harm to the Restricted Parties or any of their respective affiliates of enforcement (by injunction or otherwise) of this Agreement.

Confidentiality and Non-Disparagement.

Each Restricted Party hereby covenants and agrees to not, and to cause its respective affiliates not to, (i) retain or use any Protected Information for the benefit, purposes or account of any Restricted Party or any other Person or (ii) disclose any Protected Information, other than necessary disclosures to his or its legal and financial advisors who agree to maintain the confidentiality of such Protected Information.

In the event that any Restricted Party is legally required, based on the written opinion of outside legal counsel, to disclose any Protected Information, the Restricted Parties shall give Buyers prompt written notice of such requirement so that Buyers may seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy and the Restricted Parties shall cooperate with Buyers to obtain such protective order. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the Restricted Parties shall furnish only that portion of the Protected Information that is legally required to be disclosed, based on the written opinion of outside legal counsel, and use his, her, or its best efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Protected Information.

Except as required by law, each Restricted Party hereby covenants and agrees not to disclose to any Person, other than any Restricted Party’s legal and financial advisors, the existence or contents of this Agreement.

Each Restricted Party hereby covenants and agrees to not, and to cause its respective affiliates not to, make any negative or disparaging statements or communications regarding any Buyer or any of their respective businesses, services, directors, officers, employees, contractors or consultants.

[Signature Page to Restrictive Covenant Agreement]

Miscellaneous.

Reasonableness. Each Restricted Party expressly acknowledges that this Agreement is reasonable and valid in all respects and irrevocably waive (and irrevocably agree not to raise) as a defense any issue of reasonableness (including the reasonableness of the Restricted Business or the duration and scope of this Agreement) in any proceeding to enforce any provision of this Agreement, the express intention of the parties being to provide for the legitimate and reasonable protection of the interests of Buyers by enforcement of this Agreement as written.

Indemnification. Each Restricted Party shall indemnify and save each Buyer and its respective affiliates, members, equityholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (each, an “Indemnified Party”) harmless of and from any claim, demand, action, cause of action, judgment, loss (including loss of profits), liability, damage or expense suffered by or imposed upon the Indemnified Party as a result of, in connection with or arising out of any violation or breach of this Agreement by the Restricted Parties.

Acknowledgement of Reliance and Equitable Remedies. Each Restricted Party acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the covenants and agreements contained in Section 0, Section 0 and Section 0 (collectively, the “Non-Competition and Related Covenants”) are necessary, fundamental and required for the protection of the goodwill of Buyers and the Purchased Assets acquired by Buyers pursuant to the MTA and PSA; (ii) the Non-Competition and Related Covenants relate to matters that are of a special, unique and extraordinary value; (iii) a breach or violation by any Restricted Party of any of the Non-Competition and Related Covenants will result in irreparable harm and damages that cannot be adequately compensated by a monetary award and, accordingly, Buyers or one or more of their subsidiaries or affiliates shall, in addition to all other available remedies (including seeking such monetary damages as it can show it has sustained by reason of such breach), be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent or redress any such breach or violation (without posting a bond or other security and without having to prove the inadequacy of the available remedies at law); (iv) pursuant to the MTA and PSA, as applicable, the Restricted Parties received substantial cash payments and other valuable consideration; (v) as a condition of Buyers’ willingness to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreements, the Restricted Parties are entering into this Agreement and agreeing to the Non-Competition and Related Covenants; (vi) this Agreement is being executed in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the MTA and PSA, as applicable, pursuant to which Buyers acquired the Purchased Assets and substantial goodwill associated therewith; and (vii) this Agreement is intended to comply with the laws of the State of Texas and all other jurisdictions that might be deemed to be applicable hereto and which restrict or otherwise limit the enforceability of a contract that restrains a Person from engaging in a profession, trade or business. In the event of any breach or violation by any Restricted Party of any of the covenants contained in this Agreement, the time period of such covenant with respect to such Restricted Party shall be tolled and extended until such breach or violation is resolved.

[Signature Page to Restrictive Covenant Agreement]

Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic Laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to any choice or conflict of Law provision or rule that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Texas. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court located within the State of Texas (collectively, the “Chosen Courts”) for any litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the negotiation, validity or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby (and agrees not to commence any litigation relating thereto except in such courts), waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such litigation in the Chosen Courts and agrees not to plead or claim in any Chosen Court that such litigation brought therein has been brought in any inconvenient forum; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Buyers from enforcing a judgment in any other jurisdiction. Each party hereto agrees, (i) to the extent such party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Texas, to appoint and maintain an agent in the State of Texas as such party’s agent for acceptance of legal process and (ii) that service of process may also be made on such party by prepaid certified mail with a proof of mailing receipt validated by the United States Postal Service constituting evidence of valid service. Service made pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such party personally within the State of Texas

Non-Merger. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the covenants, representations and warranties set forth herein shall not merge upon and shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated under the MTA and PSA, as applicable, and, notwithstanding such Closing or any investigation made by or on behalf of any party, shall continue in full force and effect. Such Closing shall not prejudice any right of one party against any other party in respect of anything done or omitted under this Agreement or in respect of any right to damages or other remedies.

Severability. Subject to Section 7(g), in the event any provision of this Agreement is found to be void and unenforceable by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless be binding upon the parties hereto with the same effect as though the void or unenforceable part had been severed and deleted or reformed to be enforceable.

Judicial Limitation. It is expressly understood and agreed that, although each of the parties hereto consider the restrictions contained herein to be reasonable, if at any time a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction finally determines or adjudicates that any portion of the Non-Competition and Related Covenants is unenforceable by reason of it extending for too great of a period of time or over too great of a geographical area or by reason of it being too extensive in any other respect, then such Non-Competition and Related Covenant and this Agreement shall not be rendered void but such Non-Competition and Related Covenant shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum period of time, maximum geographical area, or maximum extent in all other respects, as the case may be, as such court may judicially determine or adjudicate to be enforceable. Alternatively, if any court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction finally determines or adjudicates that any portion of the Non-Competition and Related Covenants is unenforceable, and such restriction cannot be amended pursuant to the preceding sentence so as to make such Non-Competition and Related Covenant enforceable, such judicial determination or adjudication shall not affect the enforceability of any other Non-Competition and Related Covenant.

Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement (i) represents the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, (ii) supersedes all prior understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and (iii) can be amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement, signed by Buyers and the Restricted Parties. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All rights, remedies and benefits expressly provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights, remedies or benefits provided for by law or in this Agreement, and the exercise of any remedy by a party hereto shall not be deemed an election to the exclusion of any other remedy (any such claim by the other party being hereby waived).

Interpretative Matters. Unless otherwise expressly provided, for purposes of this Agreement, the following rules of interpretation shall apply:

Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

Words denoting any gender shall include all genders. Where a word is defined herein, references to the singular shall include references to the plural and vice versa.

A reference to any party to this Agreement or any other agreement or document shall include such party’s successors and permitted assigns.

All references to a day or days shall be deemed to refer to a calendar day or calendar days, as applicable, unless otherwise specifically provided.

Negotiation and Drafting. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other agreements and documents contemplated herein. In the event of an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises under any provision of this Agreement, this Agreement and such other agreements and documents will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties thereto, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of authoring any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreements or documents contemplated herein.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, any one of which may be by facsimile, electronic signature (including via DocuSign), digital imaging device (i.e., pdf format) or similar electronic format, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Assignment. This Agreement is personal to the Restricted Parties, and none of the Restricted Parties’ rights and duties hereunder shall be assignable or delegable by the Restricted Parties, as applicable. Any purported assignment or delegation by the Restricted Parties in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void ab initio and of no force and effect. This Agreement may be assigned by any Buyer to (i) any of its affiliates, (ii) a Person that becomes, directly or indirectly, a successor in interest (whether by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business, operations, rights, properties or assets of such Buyer or (iii) any of its lenders as collateral security. Each Restricted Party acknowledges and agrees that upon such assignment, the rights and obligations of such Buyer hereunder shall be the rights and obligations of such affiliate or successor.
