(d) Upon delivery by the Buyer to Escrow Agent and upon receipt of an executed form W-9, any and all portions of the Xxxxxxx Money will be deposited by Escrow Agent in an account acceptable to the Buyer and the Seller and shall be held in escrow in an interest-bearing account in accordance with the provisions of SECTION 12.3. Any interest earned on the Xxxxxxx Money while held by Escrow Agent shall be paid to the party to whom the

- 11 -

Xxxxxxx Money is paid, except that if the Closing occurs, the Buyer shall receive a credit for such interest in accordance with SECTION 2.2(a).

(e) NOTWITHSTANDING THE DESIGNATION OF THE DEPOSITED FUNDS AS “XXXXXXX MONEY,” THE BUYER AND THE SELLER AGREE THAT THE XXXXXXX MONEY IS A DEPOSIT ON ACCOUNT OF THE PRICE AND SHALL NOT BE REGARDED AS XXXXXXX MONEY FOR PURPOSES OF LOUISIANA CIVIL CODE ARTICLE 2624 AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF LAW.

SECTION 2.4. The Closing.

(a) Subject to the provisions of SECTION 11.1, the closing of the purchase and sale of the Asset (the “Closing”) shall take place on the Initial Closing Date, or, if extended as described below, the Extended Closing Date, or such other earlier date as mutually agreed to by the Buyer and the Seller (such date or any extension thereof as described below, the “Closing Date”), Time Being Of The Essence with respect to the Buyer’s and the Seller’s obligations hereunder on the Closing Date, subject only to the rights to adjourn the Closing Date as it may otherwise be extended pursuant to SECTION 4.4 or as a result of either party’s cure right under SECTION 11.2. The Buyer may extend the Initial Closing Date for no longer than the Extended Closing Date upon written notice to the Seller of such extension delivered to the Seller prior to the expiration of the Initial Closing Date and delivery of the Extension Deposit in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the Escrow Agent on or prior to the expiration of the Initial Closing Date. Any extension of the Initial Closing Date or other adjournment of the Closing Date (including without limitation as the result of either party’s cure right under SECTION 11.2) pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to be an extension or adjournment of the closing date under all of the other Related Agreements (and will require the delivery of the extension deposits under the other Related Agreements in the same manner as set forth above and vice versa in the event of any extension or adjournment of the closing date under any of the Related Agreements). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the Drop Dead Date for any reason other than a material breach or default by the Seller or the Buyer, then either such non-defaulting party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement subject to the terms and provisions of SECTION 11.1.

(b) The Closing shall be held on the Closing Date at the offices of the Escrow Agent or at such other location agreed upon by the parties hereto.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, there shall be no requirement that the Seller and the Buyer physically attend the Closing, and all funds and documents to be delivered at the Closing may be delivered to Escrow Agent unless the parties hereto mutually agree otherwise. The Buyer and the Seller hereby authorize their respective attorneys to execute and deliver to Escrow Agent any additional or supplementary instructions as may be necessary or convenient to implement the terms of this Agreement and facilitate the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby, provided that such instructions are consistent with and merely supplement this Agreement and shall not in any way modify, amend or supersede this Agreement.

ARTICLE III.

STUDY PERIOD

SECTION 3.1. Study Period.

(a) The Buyer shall have the right, upon prior reasonable written notice to the Seller to examine the books and records relating to the Property, to enter upon the Land and to perform, at the Buyer’s expense, such economic, surveying, engineering, environmental, topographic and marketing tests, studies and investigations as the Buyer may deem appropriate, taking care to cause minimal interference with the business conducted on the Property; provided that (i) no invasive testing may be conducted without the Seller’s prior written consent, which may be withheld by the Seller in its sole discretion, and (ii) none of the Buyer or any of its representatives, lender, consultants and agents shall (x) cause any damage or make any physical changes to any of the Property or (y) intentionally or unreasonably interfere with the rights of Hotel guests or others who may have a legal right to use or occupy the Property or (z) otherwise intentionally or unreasonably interfere with the operation of the Property. The Seller or its representatives shall have the right to be present to observe any testing or other inspection performed on any of the Property. If for any reason, or no reason, the Buyer notifies the Seller, in writing, prior to 5:00 p.m. Central Time on the last day of the Study Period that it has determined not to proceed to Closing, this Agreement automatically shall terminate, the Xxxxxxx Money shall be immediately returned to the Buyer, and, upon return of the Xxxxxxx Money, the Buyer and the Seller shall have no further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder (except as expressly survive the termination of this Agreement).

(b) Promptly after the Effective Date, and throughout the term of this Agreement as any of the materials listed in Schedule B become available to the Seller or are amended or updated, (to the extent not previously provided or made available to the Buyer) the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer, copies of such materials which are in, or come into, the Seller’s possession or control.

(c) Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Seller, and its employees, guests, contractors, tenants, manager and their respective invitees harmless from all personal injury or property damage suffered or incurred by or claimed against the foregoing arising directly out of any due diligence activities conducted or the entry upon the Land by any of Buyer, its representatives, lenders, consultant or agents, provided, however, such indemnity shall not cover liability arising from pre-existing conditions unless such pre-existing conditions are exacerbated by the Buyer or its consultants, agents, contractors, employees or representatives, in which case the Buyer shall be liable for and to the extent of the exacerbated condition and not the pre-existing condition. The Buyer, at its own expense, shall restore any damage to the Property caused by any of the tests or studies made by the Buyer, or its agents or contractors, but specifically excluding restoring or correcting any environmental or other damage to the Real Property that is discovered as a result of such tests or studies. The Buyer and any of its agents and contractors shall maintain at all times during their entry upon any of the Property for the purpose of conducting any due diligence activities, commercial general liability insurance with limits of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) combined single limit, bodily injury, death and property damage insurance per occurrence. Upon the Seller’s request, Buyer

- 13 -

(or its agents or contractor) will deliver a certificate issued by the insurance carrier of each such policy to the Seller prior to any entry upon any Property.

(d) The Buyer’s obligations under this SECTION 3.1 shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the Closing of the transaction contemplated herein.

SECTION 3.2. Title and Survey.

(a) The Seller shall order and cause to be delivered to each of the Buyer and the Seller a commitment for the Title Policy from the Title Company, together with all underlying title exception documents. The Buyer shall, at its expense, order and cause to be delivered to each of the Buyer and the Seller, an ALTA survey of the Property. After receipt of the survey and the title commitment, the Buyer shall notify the Seller of any defects in title or survey shown by such commitment and/or ALTA survey that the Buyer is unwilling to accept. Within 5 days after such notification, the Seller shall notify the Buyer whether the Seller is willing to cure such defects; the Seller’s failure to so notify the Buyer shall be deemed to be the Seller’s refusal to cure all such defects (except for any defects consisting of those items in the last sentence of this SECTION 3.2 below expressly required to be cured by the Seller). The Seller may cure any defect by causing the Title Company, at the Seller’s sole cost and expense, to omit such defect as an exception to the Title Policy or to “insure over” such defect to the Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction. If the Seller is willing to cure such defects, the Seller shall act promptly, diligently and use commercially reasonable efforts to cure such defects at its expense. Subject to those items below expressly required to be cured by the Seller, if the Seller is unwilling or unable to cure any other such defects by Closing (or fails to notify Buyer and therefore has elected not to cure such defects), then the Buyer shall elect, within 5 days after written notice thereof from the Seller to the Buyer (or within 5 days after the Seller’s time for giving notice has expired without any notice from the Seller), by giving the Seller written notice that the Buyer either (i) waives such defects and shall proceed to Closing without any abatement in the Purchase Price with respect thereto, or (ii) terminates this Agreement and shall be entitled to receive a full and immediate refund of the Xxxxxxx Money and, upon return of the Xxxxxxx Money, this Agreement shall terminate and the Buyer and the Seller shall have no further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder (except as expressly survive the termination of this Agreement). In the event that the Buyer does not make such election within the applicable time frame, the Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to waive any such defects pursuant to clause (i) above. Subject to those items below expressly required to be cured by the Seller, all title matters not objected to by the Buyer during the Study Period (or objected to but which the Seller declines, or is deemed to decline, to cure as provided above without the Buyer thereafter electing to terminate this Agreement) shall be deemed “Permitted Title Exceptions.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such defects of title consist of mortgages or deeds of trust, any other monetary liens and/or tax liens (other than liens for taxes not yet due and payable), the Buyer shall be deemed to have notified the Seller that the Buyer is unwilling to accept such defects and the Seller covenants and agrees that at or prior to Closing the Seller shall cure by payment, bonding, or escrow deposit acceptable to the Title Company (and the Escrow Agent is authorized to pay and discharge at Closing from the Seller’s proceeds, if not so cured) and cause to be cancelled and discharged such monetary title defects.

- 14 -

(b) The Seller shall promptly bring to the Buyer’s attention any defect in title which the Seller becomes aware of and which were created by, under or through the Seller to the extent not included in the initial title commitment received by the Buyer pursuant to SECTION 3.2(a) (each, an “Intervening Lien”). To the extent that there exist any Intervening Liens, other than the Permitted Title Exceptions, the Seller may, at its sole option, undertake, at its expense, all necessary actions to remove and cure any and all such Intervening Liens prior to Closing; provided, however, that in the event that the Seller elects not to remove and cure any Intervening Liens, other than the Permitted Title Exceptions, and such exist at Closing, the Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement whereupon the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned immediately to the Buyer, and, upon return of the Xxxxxxx Money, this Agreement shall terminate and the Buyer and the Seller shall have no further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder (except as expressly survive the termination of this Agreement); provided, further, the Seller shall have the unconditional commitment to remove any Intervening Lien, other than the Permitted Title Exceptions, created directly by the affirmative actions of the Seller, or to the extent created at the Seller’s express direction by its agents and/or representatives (including the Manager), and the failure to so remove shall be a material breach of this Agreement.

SECTION 3.3. Environmental Audit. The Buyer shall, at its option and expense, order a Phase I environmental audit. If such audit reveals the existence of conditions which, in the reasonable judgment of the Buyer, require further investigation (including without limitation borings, soil samples or other invasive testing), then the Buyer will provide prompt written notice to the Seller of such additional testing required (including the scope and specifications of such additional testing). Within 5 days of such notice, the Seller shall elect in writing to the Buyer, at the Seller’s sole discretion, to either (a) allow such additional testing pursuant to the scope and specifications contained in the Buyer’s notice or (b) disallow such further environmental investigation (any failure by the Seller to respond timely will be deemed to be an election of (b) above). If the Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to allow such additional testing, then the Buyer shall elect, within 5 days after written notice thereof from the Seller to the Buyer (or within 5 days after the Seller’s time for giving notice has expired without any notice from the Seller), by giving the Seller written notice that the Buyer either (i) waives such additional testing and shall proceed to Closing without any abatement in the Purchase Price with respect thereto, or (ii) terminates this Agreement, whereupon the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned immediately to the Buyer, and, upon return of the Xxxxxxx Money, this Agreement shall terminate and the Buyer and the Seller shall have no further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder (except as expressly survive the termination of this Agreement). In the event that the Buyer does not make such election within the applicable time frame, the Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to waive such additional testing pursuant to clause (i) above.

SECTION 3.4. Franchise

(a) Within 3 Business Days after the Effective Date, the Buyer shall submit a franchise application to Franchisor, together with all required related documents and submittals, and shall pay all fees and costs imposed by Franchisor in connection with such application. The Buyer acknowledges that the Seller has obtained and delivered to the Buyer the product improvement plan required by the Franchisor with respect to the Hotel (the “PIP”). During the Study Period (and commencing immediately upon the Effective Date), the Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, and pay all costs and expenses therewith associated, to obtain a franchise commitment (the “New Franchise”) with respect to the Property from the current

- 15 -

Franchisor, all upon terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to the Buyer; provided that the Buyer agrees that it will accept (if not able to negotiate any more favorable terms from Franchisor) (i) a term ending at the current expiration date of the existing Franchise Agreement, (ii) Franchisor’s standard fees (without requiring any waiver or reduction), and (iii) Franchisor’s current standard form of franchise agreement. The Seller and the Buyer shall cooperate with each other and the Franchisor to expedite completion of the same. If the Buyer does not receive the New Franchise or approval thereof from the Franchisor on or before the expiration of the Study Period, the Buyer may, at its option, upon written notice to the Seller have up to an additional 15 days to obtain the New Franchise or approval thereof (the Study Period as so extended solely for such purposes, the “Franchise Approval Period”); provided that the Buyer shall review and approve the PIP prior to the expiration of the Study Period and, if the Buyer has not elected to terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Study Period, the Seller shall be deemed to have approved of the PIP. If, despite Buyer’s good faith, commercially reasonable efforts, the Buyer does not receive the New Franchise or approval thereof from the Franchisor on or before the expiration of the Franchise Approval Period, the Buyer may, at its option, upon written notice to the Seller and the Escrow Agent terminate this Agreement, at which time the Xxxxxxx Money shall be returned promptly to the Buyer and upon return of the Xxxxxxx Money, the Buyer and the Seller shall have no further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder (except as expressly survive the termination of this Agreement). If the Buyer does not elect to terminate, to the extent permitted, on or before the expiration of the Franchise Approval Period, the Xxxxxxx Money shall remain non-refundable, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, and the Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Property shall be conditional only as otherwise provided in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All costs of the New Franchise, including, without limitation, costs associated with any required property improvement plan (including the PIP), attorneys’ fees and costs of Franchisor, and reserves required by Franchisor, shall be the responsibility of the Buyer.

(b) If the Buyer elects not to obtain a New Franchise from Franchisor (but instead elects another franchisor or brand or elects not to have any franchise or brand) or the Buyer does not obtain the New Franchise and does not terminate this Agreement in accordance with SECTION 3.4(a) and proceeds to Closing, the Buyer shall (i) pay all cancellation fees, termination fees, removal fees or other amounts owed to Franchisor as a result of cancellation and termination of the Franchise Agreement, (ii) immediately upon Closing, cease operating the Property as a “System Hotel” within the Franchisor system, including, without limitation, not directly or indirectly representing or giving the impression that it is a present or former franchisee or licensee of Franchisor or that the Property was previously a “System Hotel,” and (iii) immediately upon Closing, at its sole cost and expense, immediately and permanently remove or cause to be removed from the Property all identifying characteristics, marks and intellectual property of Franchisor and its “System Hotels,” including, without limitation, all electronic systems, signs, fixtures, furniture, furnishings, equipment, advertising materials, stationery, supplies, forms and other items containing the words, trademark, service marks or insignia for a “System Hotel,” return to Franchisor its intellectual property and other materials proprietary to Franchisor, make such alterations as may be necessary and required by Franchisor to distinguish the Hotel from its former appearance and other “System Hotels” and allow Franchisor to enter upon the Property to complete any of the foregoing not completed by the Buyer within thirty days after Closing (collectively, “De-Identification”). The De-Identification will involve, among other things, all de-identification required by the Franchise Agreement and

- 16 -

compliance with all other requirements of the Franchise Agreement that arise as a result of the sale of the Property to the Buyer. Upon Closing and in the event that the Buyer does not obtain a New Franchise from Franchisor (but instead elects another franchise or brand or elects not to have any franchise or brand), the Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold the Seller harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising from the termination of the Franchise Agreement hereunder and/or the Seller’s ability or inability to obtain a release of Seller or any Seller related guarantor of the Franchise Agreement and any failure by the Buyer to comply with all obligations arising in connection with De-Identification and any obligations imposed by Franchisor on the owner of the Property after Closing.

SECTION 3.5. Liquor License. Prior to the Closing, the Buyer shall make and prosecute an application for the issuance of new liquor licenses in favor of the Buyer (or if required by applicable law, its manager) necessary to operate the restaurants, bars and lounges presently located within the Property. To that end, the Seller and the Buyer shall (and if necessary, Seller shall cause the Manager to) cooperate with each other, and each shall promptly execute such license applications and other documents as required by the liquor licensing authorities in order to effect such issuance at the earliest date possible consistent with the laws of the State in which the Land is located in order that the Liquor License may be issued at the earliest possible time. If allowed under the laws of such State, if the Liquor License cannot be issued until after the Closing, the Seller will reasonably cooperate with the Buyer, at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense, in keeping open the bars and lounges and liquor facilities of the Hotel between the Closing Date and the time when the Liquor License issuance actually becomes effective, by exercising management and supervision of such facilities under the existing Liquor License, which may include entering into interim lease agreements and/or management agreements in form and content reasonably acceptable to both the Buyer and the Seller; provided, however that (i) the Buyer shall indemnify and hold the Seller (and, if applicable, the Manager) harmless from any liability, damages or claims incurred in connection with such operations during said period of time (excluding, however, any such liability, damage or claim based on the Seller’s and/or, if applicable, the Manager’s violation of applicable law, willful misconduct or gross negligence), and the Buyer shall procure and pay for dram shop liability insurance naming the Buyer and the Seller (and, if applicable, the Manager) as insured parties thereunder, and (ii) the obligation of the Seller to cooperate and keep open the liquor facilities of the Hotel shall terminate on the earlier of sixty (60) days after the Closing or when the Buyer obtains its Liquor License. The provisions of this SECTION 3.5 shall survive the Closing.

SECTION 3.6. Buyer Audit Requirements. The Seller agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly deliver to the Buyer all of the audit request materials listed on Exhibit E; provided, however, the Seller shall deliver all such materials within its possession (or which are otherwise reasonably accessible to the Seller as of the Effective Date) prior to the expiration of the Study Period; provided further, the Seller acknowledges and agrees to use its good faith efforts to also provide such additional information related to both the operation of the Property during the Seller’s period of ownership of the Property and the Seller as requested by the Buyer (or its accountants) which is deemed relevant and reasonably necessary (as reasonably determined by the Buyer, with the understanding than any such inquiry that is made by the Buyer or its accountants shall pertain solely to the affairs of the Seller as the owner of the Property and shall not extend to the financial or other information of any direct or indirect owner of the Seller) to enable the Buyer and its accountants to prepare financial statements in compliance with (a) Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and

- 17 -

Exchange Commission which audit will commence immediately upon Closing and which is required to be completed and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 75 days after Closing; (b) any other rule issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission and applicable to the Buyer; and (c) any registration statement, report or disclosure statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by, or on behalf of, the Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing and upon Buyer’s written request, the Seller shall engage (at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense) McGladrey LLP to commence any and all such required audits. The Seller acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing is a representative description of the information and documentation that the Buyer and its accountants may require in order to comply with (a), (b) and (c) above. In connection with the foregoing post-Closing audit(s), and in furtherance of the Seller’s obligations to assist the Buyer pursuant to this SECTION 3.6, the Seller covenants and agrees to execute and deliver to McGladrey LLP the audit representation letter solely for the benefit of McGladrey LLP, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit F (the “Audit Representation Letter”), provided that the form of such Audit Representation Letter may be modified as required to account for any issues identified during the audit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by law and without in any way limiting any of the Buyer’s rights and remedies expressly provided for under this Agreement (but subject to the limitations on such rights and remedies as expressly provided for under this Agreement), the Buyer, its agents, consultants and any other Person claiming by, through or under the Buyer (but expressly excluding McGladrey LLP) (a) shall have no claims against Seller Releasees solely as a result of the audit contemplated by this SECTION 3.6 or the Audit Representation Letter, and (b) hereby waive and release any claims against Seller Releasees that may arise solely from, or as a result of, such audit or the Audit Representation Letter, unless, in either of (a) or (b), such parties would otherwise have a claim expressly provided for under this Agreement (but subject to the limitations on any such claim as expressly provided for under this Agreement). The Seller’s obligations under this SECTION 3.6 shall survive the Closing for a period of 12 months. The Buyer’s obligations under this SECTION 3.6 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 3.7. Buyer’s Due Diligence Reports. In the event the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is not closed for any reason whatsoever, the Seller may elect to have the Buyer deliver to the Seller originals or copies of all third party reports, documents, studies, analyses, and other written information obtained by the Buyer with respect to the Property, including results of physical inspections, engineering studies, engineering drawings and specifications, surveys, Hazardous Materials reports, soil tests, site plans, feasibility studies, market studies, property improvement plans, architectural plans, specifications and drawings, title reports, permits, approvals and authorizations (whether obtained from Governmental Authorities or third parties); and all other work product (excluding attorney client privileged materials, internal memoranda, and appraisals) generated by third parties for the Buyer solely in connection with the Property; provided, however, in the event the Buyer delivers any or all of the aforementioned materials to the Seller, the Buyer makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the same and the Seller shall have no right to rely on such materials. In consideration for the Buyer providing all such aforementioned materials, the Seller shall pay the Buyer an amount equal to one-half of the actual out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Buyer in obtaining such materials (as evidenced by invoices, purchase orders and the like). The provisions of this SECTION 3.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(n) Other. If applicable, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted at Closing to reflect the adjustment of any other item which, (i) under the explicit terms of this Agreement, is to be apportioned at Closing, or (ii) is customarily prorated at the closing of similar transactions, except to the extent otherwise provided for in this Agreement.

SECTION 9.2. Closing Statement.

(a) In connection with the prorations required under SECTION 9.1, not later than 5 Business Days prior to the intended Closing Date, the Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to have prepared a proforma of the accounting for the transaction that reflects the Seller’s good faith estimate of how items subject to proration will be accounted for by crediting or debiting appropriate accounts either pre or post Closing, respectively (the “Draft Closing Statement”). The Draft Closing Statement shall reflect the parties’ good faith estimate of all of the prorations, credits and/or other adjustments to be made at Closing. On the day prior to Closing, the Seller and the Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct inventories, examinations and audits of the Asset as may be necessary to verify and/or make revisions to the Draft Closing Statement based on such audits, examinations and inventories, and on the night preceding the Closing immediately after the Cut-Off Time, the Seller and the Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts to make all final adjustments necessitated by such nights’ operations and prepare a final closing statement of prorations and adjustments required

- 37 -

under SECTION 9.1 with such supporting documentation as the parties hereto may reasonably require being attached thereto. The Buyer and the Seller acknowledge and agree that the completion of the Draft Closing Statement pursuant to this SECTION 9.2(a) shall not be a condition precedent to the obligation of the Buyer or the Seller to consummate the transactions pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If any items to be adjusted pursuant to this ARTICLE IX are not determinable at the Closing, or if any such adjustments made at the Closing prove to be incorrect, the adjustment shall be made subsequent to the Closing or corrected when the charge is finally determined. The Buyer shall deliver to the Seller no later than 60 days following the Closing Date (except with respect to any item which is not reasonably determinable within such time frame, as to which the time frame shall be extended until such item is reasonably determinable) a schedule of prorations setting forth the Buyer’s determination of prorations not determined at the Closing and any adjustments to the prorations made at Closing that it believes are necessary to complete the prorations as set forth in this ARTICLE IX. Any errors or omissions in computing adjustments or readjustments at the Closing or thereafter shall be promptly corrected or made, provided that the party seeking to correct such error or omission or to make such readjustment shall have notified the other party of such error or omission or readjustment on or prior to the date that is 30 days following the receipt from the other party of such other party’s proposed adjustment or readjustment. The party owing the other party any sum pursuant to any adjustment, or readjustment or correction under this ARTICLE IX shall pay such sum to the other party within 15 days after the same has been determined as set forth above.

SECTION 9.3. Accounts Receivable.

(a) Guest Ledger. All revenues received or to be received from transient guests on account of room rents for the period prior to and including the Cut-Off Time shall belong to the Seller. At Closing, the Seller shall receive a credit in an amount equal to: (i) all amounts unpaid as of the Cut-Off Time charged to the Guest Ledger for all room nights up to (but not including) the night during which the Cut-Off Time occurs, and (ii) one-half of all amounts unpaid as of the Cut-Off Time charged to the Guest Ledger for the room night which includes the Cut-Off Time and the Guest Ledger and all amounts charged thereto and unpaid as of the Cut-Off Time shall become the property of the Buyer. For the period beginning on the day immediately following the Cut-Off Time, such revenues collected from the Guest Ledger shall belong to the Buyer. In the event that an amount less than the total amount due from a guest is collected and guest continued in occupancy after the Cut-Off Time, such amount shall be applied first to any amount owing by such person to the Seller and thereafter to such person’s amounts accruing to the Buyer.

(b) Accounts Receivable (Other than Guest Ledger). After the Closing, the Seller shall retain the right to collect all Accounts Receivable other than the Guest Ledger which is addressed in SECTION 9.3(a) (such retained Accounts Receivable, the “Retained Accounts Receivable”). The Seller shall not receive a credit for the Retained Accounts Receivable. The Seller shall have the sole right to collect the Retained Accounts Receivable. If any Retained Accounts Receivable are paid to the Buyer after the Closing, the Buyer shall pay to the Seller the amounts received by the Buyer within 10 days after receipt of such amounts without any commission or deduction for the Buyer.

ARTICLE XI.

TERMINATION; REMEDIES

SECTION 11.1. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Closing (a) by either party, if any of the conditions precedent to such party’s obligations as set forth in SECTION 6.1, SECTION 6.2, or elsewhere in this Agreement have not been satisfied or waived by such party on or prior to the Drop Dead Date, unless the failure of such condition precedent results from a material

- 40 -

breach by the proposed terminating party of any of their respective representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, or (b) by the Seller or the Buyer in accordance with SECTION 11.2(b) or SECTION 11.2(c), respectively, or (c) as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement.

SECTION 11.2. Termination; Remedies Upon Termination.

(a) In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to SECTION 11.1(a), the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Xxxxxxx Money immediately to the Buyer, and, upon such disbursement, this Agreement shall terminate and the Seller and the Buyer shall have no further rights, liabilities, or obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

(b) If there is a material breach or default by the Buyer in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or any Related Agreement, provided that the Seller has notified the Buyer in writing of such breach or default, and, if such breach or default was of a type which can be cured and was not willful or fraudulent, such breach or default continued without cure (as reasonable determined by the Seller) for a period of five (5) Business Days after such notice, the Seller, at its option and as its sole and exclusive remedy, may terminate this Agreement and the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Xxxxxxx Money (together with the xxxxxxx money under all of the Related Agreements) immediately to the Seller, and upon such disbursement, this Agreement shall terminate and the Seller and the Buyer shall have no further rights, liabilities, or obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.

Accordingly, in the event that the Buyer breaches this Agreement, the Xxxxxxx Money shall constitute and be deemed to be the agreed and liquidated damages of the Seller, and shall be paid by the Escrow Agent to the Seller as the Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy hereunder; provided, however, the foregoing shall not limit the Buyer’s obligation to pay to the Seller all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of the Seller to enforce the provisions of this Section. The payment of the Xxxxxxx Money as liquidated damages is not intended to be a forfeiture or penalty, but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to the Seller.

(c) If there is a material breach or default by the Seller in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, provided that the Buyer has notified the Seller in writing of such breach or default, and, if such breach or default was of a type which can be cured and was not willful or fraudulent, such breach or default continued without cure (as reasonable determined by the Buyer) for a period of five (5) Business Days after such notice, the Buyer, at its option and as its sole and exclusive remedy, may (i) terminate this Agreement and (A) direct the Escrow Agent to deliver the Xxxxxxx Money to the Buyer and (B) receive from the Seller an amount equal to the actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement not to exceed Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) (and subject to an aggregate limit of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00) that the Buyer can receive under this Agreement and the other Related Agreements), at which time this Agreement shall terminate and the Seller and the Buyer shall

- 41 -

have no further rights, liabilities, or obligations under this Agreement, except those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement; (ii) specifically enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement, provided that any action for specific performance shall be commenced no later than 30 days from the scheduled Closing Date it being understood that if the Buyer fails to commence an action for specific performance on or prior to the expiration of said 30-day period, the Buyer’s sole remedies shall be limited to those set forth in clause (i) above; or (iii) proceed to Closing notwithstanding such breach or default. Notwithstanding the foregoing, termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the Seller from liability to the Buyer for any willful or fraudulent breach, prior to such termination, of the terms and provisions this Agreement, which liability shall survive any such termination.

9.	The following have been properly recorded and/or disclosed in the financial statements:

	a.	Related-party relationships, transactions, and related amounts receivable or payable, including sales, purchases, loans, transfers, leasing arrangements, and guarantees, all of which have been recorded in accordance with the economic substance of the transactions.

	b.	Liens or encumbrances on assets and pledges of assets.

	c.	Amounts of contractual obligations for construction and/or purchase of real property, equipment, other assets, and intangibles.

	d.	All significant estimates and material concentrations known to management that are required to be disclosed in accordance with the Risks and Uncertainties Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

Concentrations refer to volumes of business, revenues, available sources of supply, or markets for which events could occur that would significantly disrupt normal finances within the next year.

	e.	Assets and liabilities measured at fair value in accordance with the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

10.	We have evaluated the tax positions under the two-step approach for recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions required by the Income Taxes Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and we believe there are no current and deferred assets and liabilities related to the accounting for income taxes.

11.	We are responsible for making the accounting estimates included in the [consolidated] [combined] financial statements. Those estimates reflect our judgment based on our knowledge and experience about past and current events and our assumptions about conditions we expect to exist and courses of action we expect to take.

12.	There are no:

	a.	Material transactions that have not been properly recorded in the accounting records underlying the financial statements.

	b.	Violations or possible violations of laws or regulations whose effects should be considered for disclosure in the financial statements or as a basis for recording a loss contingency. In that regard, we specifically represent that we have not been designated as, or alleged to be, a “potentially responsible party” by the Environmental Protection Agency in connection with any environmental contamination.

	c.	Other material liabilities or gain or loss contingencies that are required to be accrued or disclosed by the Contingencies Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

	d.	Derivative financial instruments.

	e.	Guarantees, whether written or oral, under which the Company is contingently liable.

	h.	Agreements to repurchase assets previously sold.

	i.	Security agreements in effect under the Uniform Commercial Code.

	j.	Investments in debt and equity securities.

	k.	Liabilities that are subordinated to any other actual or possible liabilities of the Company.

	l.	All leases and material amounts of rental obligations under long-term leases.

13.	We are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation, claims, or assessments, or unasserted claims or assessments that are required to be accrued or disclosed in the financial statements in accordance with the Contingencies Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, and we have not consulted a lawyer concerning litigation, claims, or assessments.

14.	The Company has satisfactory title to all owned assets.

15.	We have complied with all aspects of contractual agreements that would have a material effect on the financial statements in the event of noncompliance.

16.	We are responsible for determining that significant events or transactions that have occurred since the balance sheet date and through [DATE OF MANAGEMENT’S EVALUATION AS DISCLOSED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS], have been recognized or disclosed in the financial statements. No events or transactions [other than those disclosed in the [consolidated] [combined] financial statements] have occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date and through [DATE OF MANAGEMENT’S EVALUATION AS DISCLOSED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS] that would require recognition or disclosure in the [consolidated] [combined] financial statements. We further represent that as of [DATE OF MANAGEMENT’S EVALUATION AS DISCLOSED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS], the financial statements were complete in a form and format that complied with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and all approvals necessary for issuance of the financial statements had been obtained.

17.	During the course of your audit, you may have accumulated records containing data that should be reflected in our books and records. All such data have been so reflected. Accordingly, copies of such records in your possession are no longer needed by us.
