11.6 Legal Counsel and Joint Authorship. Each of the Parties has received independent legal advice from attorneys of its choice with respect to the advisability of making and executing this Agreement and the Closing Documents or waived its right to do so. Buyer hereby acknowledges that Seller’s counsel is not representing the Buyer or any interests of Buyer in connection with this Agreement or any other matter and that Seller’s counsel has informed Buyer that Buyer should consult with an attorney of Buyer’s choice prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event of any dispute or controversy regarding authorship of this Agreement or the Closing Documents, the Parties shall be conclusively deemed to be the joint authors of this Agreement and the Closing Documents and no provision of this Agreement or the Closing Documents shall be interpreted against a Party by reason of authorship.
11.7 Assignment. This Agreement and the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions, obligations, undertakings, rights and benefits hereof, including the exhibits hereto, shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, representatives, successors, and assigns; provided, however, it is understood and agreed that Buyer shall not assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Agreement or any rights or interests hereunder without first obtaining the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld by Seller for any reason whatsoever. Any attempted assignment, transfer or other disposition of this Agreement shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall have a one time right to assign this Agreement to a Buyer Affiliate (as defined below) without Seller’s consent so long as (i) Buyer has provided Seller and Escrow Agent with prior written notice of Buyer’s intent to assign to Buyer Affiliate, (ii) the assignment to Buyer Affiliate occurs no later than five (5) Business Days prior to Closing, (iii) Buyer assigns the Deposit and the Assignment Agreement to Buyer Affiliate, (iv) Buyer Affiliate executes an agreement wherein the Buyer Affiliate assumes the obligations of the Buyer under this Agreement, the Assignment Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement, (v) Buyer and Buyer Affiliate represent and warrant to Seller in writing, which representation and warranty shall survive Closing, that (a) to the extent that Buyer is an individual, Buyer Affiliate is wholly owned and controlled directly by the Buyer, or (b) to the extent that Buyer is an entity, Buyer Affiliate is wholly owned and controlled directly and identically as the Buyer on the Effective Date, such that the party or parties that directly own and control the interests in the Buyer as of the Effective Date shall be identical to the party or parties that directly own and control the interests in the Buyer Affiliate with such party or parties owning the same percentage interests and holding the same or equivalent managerial position in the Buyer Affiliate as such party or parties own and hold in the Buyer as of the Effective Date, (vi) Buyer acknowledges in writing that it remains liable under this Agreement, the Assignment Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement notwithstanding the assignment to Buyer Affiliate, and (vii) Buyer Affiliate shall, at Closing, pay Seller’s counsel $500.00 for any revisions that are necessary to the Closing Documents as a result of the assignment. The term “Buyer Affiliate” as used herein shall mean (a) to the extent that the Buyer is an individual, an entity that is wholly owned and controlled directly by the Buyer, or (b) to the extent that Buyer is
23
DocuSign Envelope ID: 71F2AF04-7D64-469E-B64F-6D74397F087E
an entity, an entity that is wholly owned and controlled directly and identically as the Buyer on the Effective Date (the “New Entity”) such that the party or parties that directly own and control the interests in the Buyer as of the Effective Date shall be identical to the party or parties that directly own and control the interests in the New Entity with such party or parties owning the same percentage interests and holding the same or equivalent managerial position in the New Entity as such party or parties own and held in the Buyer as of the Effective Date. By way of example only, assume Buyer is a limited liability company and A, B, C and D each own and control directly a 25% membership interest in Buyer and A is the manager of Buyer. In such example, in order for an entity to qualify as a “Buyer Affiliate”, A, B, C and D would each have to own and control directly a 25% interest in such entity and A would have to serve as the manager (if the entity was an limited liability company) or such other equivalent capacity (if the entity was an entity other than a limited liability company) of such entity.
11.8 No Obligation Of Seller After Closing. Buyer expressly acknowledges and agrees that Seller has no obligation with respect to the Loan or the Foreclosure Judgment (if any) which survives Closing, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement.

THIS AGREEMENT IS PERFORMABLE IN THE STATE IN WHICH THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED, AND ALL DISPUTES AND MATTERS WHATSOEVER ARISING UNDER, IN CONNECTION WITH OR INCIDENT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LITIGATED, IF AT ALL, IN AND BEFORE A COURT LOCATED IN THE COUNTY IN WHICH THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED, TO THE EXCLUSION OF THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER STATE OR COUNTY.
11.12 Attorneys’ Fees. If either Party defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement or if any dispute arises between the Parties hereto concerning the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement, then the defaulting Party or the Party not prevailing in such dispute, as the case may be, shall pay any and all costs and expenses incurred by the other party on account of such default and/or in enforcing or establishing its rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, court costs (including costs of any trial or appeal therefrom) and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. This provision shall survive the Closing.
11.13 Holidays. Wherever this Agreement provides for a date, day or period of time on or prior to which action or events are to occur or not occur, and if such date, day or last day of such period of time falls on a day which is not a Business Day or is not a business day in the state in which the Property is located, then the same shall be deemed to fall on the immediately following Business Day.

Similarly, in the event this Agreement is terminated, the Assignment Agreement shall automatically terminate whereupon the Deposit shall be refunded to the Buyer promptly by Escrow Agent unless Buyer is in default under any provision of this Agreement, the Assignment Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement, in which event Escrow Agent shall promptly release the Deposit to Seller in accordance with Section 7.2 above, whereupon the Assignment Agreement shall be rendered null and void and the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 71F2AF04-7D64-469E-B64F-6D74397F087E
it may have in the Loan Documents and Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that once Closing occurs, it shall not retain any interest in the Loan Documents and, to the extent that any reversionary rights arise as a result of an appeal of the Foreclosure Judgment, Seller hereby assigns the same to Buyer. This provision shall survive the Closing.
