2.6 Assumed Liabilities. Except as expressly set forth herein, Purchaser shall not assume, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, any liability or obligation of any Seller whatsoever, and, to this end, each Seller shall retain responsibility for all liabilities and obligations accrued or incurred from its operations prior to Closing and all liabilities and obligations arising from its operations prior to Closing, whether or not accrued and whether or not disclosed (the “Retained Liabilities”). The terms of this Section 2.6 shall survive Closing.
2.7 Allocation of Purchase Price.
(a) The Purchase Price is allocated among the Properties (the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to each Property is referred to herein as the “Allocated Purchase Price”) as provided in Exhibit “A-2” attached hereto. Each party agrees to file federal, state and local tax returns consistent with the allocations set forth on Exhibit “A-2”.
(b) Within five (5) days before the end of the Due Diligence Period, the parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree on an allocation of the Allocated Purchase Price for each Property among each Property’s Real Property and the various items of Personal Property and Intangible Property. Each party agrees to file federal, state and local tax returns consistent with such allocations agreed upon between the parties. If Sellers and Purchaser do not agree on how a Property’s Allocated Purchase Price shall be allocated among each Property’s Real Property and the various items of Personal Property and Intangible Property, each party shall file federal, state and local tax returns based on each party’s own determination of the proper allocations, each bearing its own consequences of any discrepancies.

Each Seller shall cause all bond financing, mortgages, deeds of trust, and monetary liens (including liens for delinquent taxes and mechanics’ and judgment liens properly charged to any of Sellers) affecting its respective Property and all indebtedness secured thereby (the “Existing Liens”) to be fully satisfied, released, and discharged of record on the Closing Date with the use of the Closing Payment, so that Purchaser shall take title to each Property free of the same. All costs related to the discharge of the Existing Liens at a Property shall be borne by the applicable Seller. Each Seller acknowledges that such satisfaction, release, and discharge may involve prepayment penalties or premiums and other costs or expenses, all of which shall be paid by such Seller at its sole cost and expense in connection with the Closing (and the Closing Payment shall be used for such purpose).

On or before the Effective Date, and continuing throughout the Due Diligence Period, Manager and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to enter into definitive, binding documents with respect to the management of the Properties following Closing (the “Management Documents”). The terms of the Management Documents shall be substantially in accordance with the terms set forth in that certain letter of intent dated June 4, 2013 between Manager and Purchaser, with other such terms as the parties thereto may negotiate. If Manager and Purchaser have not fully executed the Management Documents by the date of expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then either Sellers or Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the other by not later than three (3) business days after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. Upon any such termination, Purchaser shall receive a return of the Deposit (to the extent previously deposited) and the parties shall equally share the cancellation charges, if any, of Escrow Agent.
2.10 Negotiation and Execution of Property Documents for Proximate Property. On or before the Effective Date, and continuing throughout the Due Diligence Period, Raider Ranch Land Seller, Manager, South Bay Partners, Ltd. and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to enter into definitive, binding documents with respect to (i) the sale to Purchaser of certain real property currently owned by Raider Ranch Land Seller and located in close proximity to the Properties, and (ii) the entering into of a development agreement and related ancillary documentation with South Bay Partners, Ltd. and/or or their Affiliates with respect to the development of such real property, and (iii) the entering into of management arrangements regarding the management of the project(s) to be constructed on such real property (collectively, the “Proximate Property Documents”). The terms of the Proximate Property Documents shall be substantially in accordance with the terms set forth in that certain letter of intent dated June 4, 2013 among Raider Ranch Land Seller, South Bay Partners, Ltd, Manager and Purchaser with such other terms as the parties thereto may negotiate. If the parties thereto have not entered into the Proximate Property Documents by the date of expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then either Sellers or Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the other, by not later than three (3) business days after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. Upon any such termination, Purchaser shall receive a return of the Deposit (to the extent previously deposited) and the parties shall equally share the cancellation charges, if any, of Escrow Agent.
2.11 General Contractor. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser acknowledges that the general contractor for the development of the Properties, RES ICD, LP, dba Integrated Construction and Development, LP (the “General Contractor”) is an affiliate of Sellers, the Contracts with the General Contractor have been fully performed by the General Contractor, and that in any case no Contracts with or related rights against the General Contractor are being assigned hereunder. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it does not have contractual privity with the General Contractor, and in any event Purchaser shall have no right to make warranty (whether arising under contract, statute, common law or otherwise) or other contract claims against General Contractor. For the avoidance of doubt, any warranties assigned under the Assignment and Assumption of Intangible Property or any other Closing Document are assigned only to the extent given by third parties other than the General Contractor. Purchaser may therefore only make any warranty claims against any such third parties (to the extent any warranties remain in effect from such third parties), and the General Contractor shall bear no liability arising from or related to any such warranty claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser is not waiving any claims arising as a result of General Contractor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct which Purchaser may have against General Contractor by statute or under common law.

III.
ESCROW
3.1 Escrow. Purchaser and Sellers have established or will establish an escrow (“Escrow”) with Escrow Agent by depositing with Escrow Agent the Deposit and having three (3) copies of the Escrow Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B” duly executed (in counterparts or otherwise) by Sellers, Purchaser and Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Deposit shall be held by Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.
3.2 Deposit of Funds. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all funds deposited into the Escrow by Purchaser shall be immediately deposited by Escrow Agent into an interest bearing account, subject to the control of Escrow Agent in a bank or savings and loan association, or such other institution approved by Purchaser, or such other investment as may be approved by Purchaser; provided, however, that such funds must be readily available as necessary to comply with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and for the Escrow to close within the time specified in Section 7.1 of this Agreement. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided herein, interest on amounts placed by Escrow Agent in any such investments or interest bearing accounts shall accrue to the benefit of Purchaser, and Purchaser shall promptly provide to Escrow Agent Purchaser’s Tax Identification Number.
IV.
TITLE AND SURVEY
4.1 Title Examination; Commitment for Title Insurance. Prior to or on the Effective Date, each Seller has obtained from Escrow Agent and delivered to Purchaser, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, a current commitment for the Texas equivalent of an A.L.T.A. Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance 2006 Form (the “Title Commitment”) covering such Real Property and a copy of each document referenced in the Title Commitment as an exception to title.
4.2 Survey. Prior to or on the Effective Date, each Seller has delivered to Purchaser, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, the existing survey for its Real Property (the “Survey”). In the event that Purchaser elects to have a new or updated Survey of any Real Property performed, it shall deliver a copy thereof to Sellers within five (5) days of receipt of any such Survey.
4.3 Title Objections; Cure of Title Objections. Purchaser shall have until fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (the “Title Objection Date”) to provide Notice to Sellers, in writing, of such objections as Purchaser may have to any item contained in any Title Commitment and any matter shown on any Survey (or any update thereto received prior to the Title Objection Date). Any item contained in any Title Commitment or any matter shown on any Survey to which Purchaser does not object prior to the Title Objection Date shall
- 13 -
be deemed a Permitted Exception. In the event Purchaser provides Notice to Sellers of objections to any items contained in any Title Commitment or any matters shown on any Survey prior to the Title Objection Date, Sellers shall have the right, but not the obligation (except as otherwise provided below), to cure such objections. Within five (5) days after receipt of Purchaser’s notice of objections, Sellers shall notify Purchaser in writing as to whether Sellers elect to attempt to cure such objections. Any failure by Sellers to respond within five (5) days after receipt of Purchaser’s notice of objections shall be deemed a refusal by Sellers to cure any objections to which a response was not delivered. If Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period pursuant to Section 2.3, all items contained in the Title Commitments or matters shown on the Surveys, other than the Required Deletion Items and those items or matters with respect to which Purchaser has objected and Sellers have affirmatively elected to cure, shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions. The Permitted Exceptions shall, inter alia, include (and Purchaser shall not be permitted to object to) any exceptions relating to interests and rights of parties in possession under any Leases or Resident Agreements, liens for all real estate taxes and assessments, water rates, water meter charges, sewer rates, sewer charges and similar matters imposed by any governmental authority and not yet due and payable as of the Closing Date, including special assessments and special improvement district or local improvement district bonds, any and all present and future laws, ordinances, restrictions, requirements, resolutions, orders, rules and regulations of any governmental authority, as now or hereafter existing or enforced (including those related to zoning and land use), and any exceptions caused by Purchaser, its agents, representatives or employees. If Sellers elect to attempt to cure, and provided that Purchaser shall not have terminated this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof, Sellers shall have until the Closing Date to attempt to remove, satisfy or cure the same and for this purpose Sellers shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing if additional time is required, but in no event shall the adjournment exceed thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. If Sellers are unable to effect a cure prior to the Closing Date (or any date to which the Closing has been adjourned) then Purchaser shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to (a) accept a conveyance of the Real Property subject to the Permitted Exceptions and any matter objected to by Purchaser that Sellers are unable to cure, and without reduction of the Purchase Price or (b) terminate this Agreement by sending written notice thereof to Seller, and upon delivery of such notice of termination, this Agreement shall terminate and the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser. Following any termination of this Agreement in accordance with subsection (b) of the previous sentence, neither party hereto shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except to the extent that any right, obligation or liability set forth herein expressly survives termination of this Agreement. Except as provided in the next sentence, Sellers shall have no obligation to bring any action or proceeding or otherwise to incur any expense to correct, discharge or otherwise remove title exceptions or defects with respect to any Property or to remove, remedy or comply with any other grounds for Purchaser’s refusing to approve title. Each Seller shall, however, be obligated to remove or discharge, or otherwise cause the Escrow Agent to omit as an exception to title or to insure against collection thereof from or against its respective Property, (y) any Existing Liens and (z) any liens and encumbrances created by through or under such Seller after the Effective Date, that are not Permitted Exceptions (collectively, the “Required Deletion Items”). If, on the Closing Date, there are any Required Deletion Items, the applicable Seller may use any portion of its pro rata share of the Closing Payment to satisfy same, provided the Escrow Agent shall omit such lien or encumbrance as an exception to title. If the applicable
- 14 -
Seller shall fail to authorize the Escrow Agent to use its pro rata share of the Closing Payment to satisfy a Required Deletion Item, and such Required Deletion Item therefore is not omitted as an exception to title, such failure shall be deemed to be a default by Sellers, and Purchaser shall have the remedies set forth in Section 11.2.
4.4 Conveyance of Title. At the Closing, Sellers shall deliver to Purchaser, in escrow through Escrow Agent, the Deeds, each subject to no exceptions other than the Permitted Exceptions.
The acceptance by Purchaser of the Deeds shall be deemed to be a full performance and discharge of every obligation on the part of Sellers to be performed under this Agreement with respect to the Property, other than those that are specifically stated herein or in any Closing Document to survive the Closing.
V.
INSPECTIONS
5.1 Purchaser’s Independent Inspection.
(a) Sellers shall provide Purchaser the full opportunity during the Due Diligence Period to inspect and investigate each and every aspect of each Property, either independently or through agents, representatives or experts of Purchaser’s choosing, as Purchaser considers necessary or appropriate.

(b) Except as expressly provided herein or in any Closing Documents, Sellers make no representations or warranties as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of any materials, data or other information, if any, supplied to Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s inspection of the Property (e.g., that such materials are complete, accurate or the final version thereof, or that all such materials are in Sellers’ possession). Except for Purchaser’s reliance on any representation and warranties expressly provided herein, it is the parties’ express understanding and agreement that any such materials are to be provided only for Purchaser’s convenience in making its own examination and determination as to whether it wishes to purchase the Properties, and, in doing so, Purchaser shall rely exclusively on its own independent investigation and evaluation of every aspect of each Property and not on any materials supplied by Sellers. Except for Purchaser’s reliance on any representation and warranties expressly provided herein or in any Closing Documents with respect to any such materials, Purchaser expressly disclaims any intent to rely on any such materials provided to it by Sellers in connection with its inspection and agrees that it shall rely solely on its own independently developed or verified information.
(c) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (i) on or prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period it will have completed its independent inspection and investigation of the Property and the Due Diligence Materials and (ii) it shall have no right after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period to terminate this Agreement based on any further investigations of the Property or the Due Diligence Materials. The failure of Purchaser to send a Termination Notice prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period shall conclusively constitute Purchaser’s approval of each and every aspect of the Property, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
5.2 Access.
(a) Sellers shall cooperate and provide Purchaser with reasonable access to each Real Property upon commercially reasonable Notice to Sellers for the purpose of Purchaser’s inspection (provided, however, that Purchaser shall not perform any invasive testing of any Real Property without Sellers’ prior written consent in each instance, which may be granted or withheld in Sellers’ sole and absolute discretion). Neither Purchaser nor any of its employees, agents or representatives shall contact or otherwise discuss this transaction and/or the operation of the Facilities with any on-site employees of the Facilities without Sellers’ prior written consent; provided, however, that Purchaser may
- 16 -
meet with any Facility’s Executive Director upon commercially reasonable Notice to Sellers but, if required by Sellers, only in the presence of Sellers’ representative. Each Seller shall have the right to have a representative of such Seller present during all inspections or examinations of the applicable Real Property by Purchaser. Prior to any entry by Purchaser or any of Purchaser’s designees onto any Property, Purchaser shall: (i) if Purchaser does not then have such a policy in force, procure a policy of commercial general liability insurance, issued by an insurer reasonably satisfactory to Sellers, covering all Purchaser’s activities, with a single limit of liability (per occurrence and aggregate) of not less than Two Million and NO/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00); and (ii) deliver to Sellers a Certificate of Insurance, evidencing that such insurance is in force and effect, and evidencing that Sellers have been named as an additional insured thereunder with respect to any Purchaser’s activities. Such insurance shall be written on an “occurrence” basis, and shall be maintained in force until the earlier of (x) the termination of this Agreement and the conclusion of all of Purchaser’s activities on the Property, or (y) the Closing Date.
(b) Purchaser, at all times, will conduct all inspections and reviews in compliance with all Legal Requirements, and in a manner so as to not cause damage, loss, cost or expense to Sellers, any Property or the residents of any Property, and without unreasonably interfering with or disturbing any employee or resident at the Facilities. Prior to Closing, the results of or any other information acquired pursuant to Purchaser’s inspections shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 14.16 below. Purchaser will promptly restore any damage to any Property caused by Purchaser’s inspection to substantially the same condition immediately preceding such inspections and examinations and will keep the Properties free and clear of any mechanic’s liens or materialmen’s liens caused by Purchaser or its representatives in connection with such inspections and examinations.
(c) The cost of the inspections and tests undertaken pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be borne solely by Purchaser.
5.3 Confidential Nature of Due Diligence Materials. Purchaser covenants and agrees that, until the Closing Date, all information and materials disclosed and/or delivered to it by Sellers, or Sellers’ agents, employees and representatives (including without limitation, the Due Diligence Materials), are confidential and proprietary information, and that Purchaser shall hold the same in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 14.16 below. Purchaser also agrees that, in the event the transactions contemplated in this Agreement are not consummated as provided herein, Purchaser shall promptly return to Sellers or notify Seller in writing that Purchaser has destroyed all such information and documentation and all copies thereof other than any copies required to be retained to comply with Purchaser’s internal records retention policy, which copies shall continue to be subject to the terms of Section 14.16.
5.4 Continuing Nature of Purchaser’s Obligations. The obligations of Purchaser under this Article V (including its indemnification obligations under Section 8.1(a)) shall survive Closing or the termination of this Agreement.

(a) With respect to each Property, all non-delinquent real estate and personal property general and special taxes and assessments for the Property and the Land for the current assessment year of the applicable taxing authority in which the Closing Date occurs shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. If the exact amount of taxes is not known at Closing, the proration will be based on an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the prior assessment year’s taxes and shall be adjusted directly between the applicable Seller and Purchaser once actual figures become available after Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) each Seller shall retain all right, title and interest in and to any and all property tax (both real property and personal property) refunds and claims for refunds with respect to the its respective Property for any period prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) each Seller is responsible for all taxes due and payable prior to the Closing Date in connection with its respective Property.

With respect to each Property, Seller shall be responsible for all sales, use and other transfer taxes imposed in connection with the sale and transfer of the Personal Property and the Intangible Property.
(b) With respect to each Property, the applicable Seller shall request each utility company providing utility service to the applicable Real Property to cause all utility xxxxxxxx to be closed and billed as of the Closing Date in order that utility charges may be separately billed for the period prior to the Closing Date and the period on and after the Closing Date. In the event any such utility charges are not separately billed, the same shall be prorated. In connection with any such proration, it shall be presumed that utility charges were uniformly incurred during the billing period in which the Closing Date occurs. Each Seller shall receive a credit at Closing for any Utility Deposits with respect to its respective Facility that are transferred or made available to Purchaser. Purchaser shall arrange for placing all utility services and bills in its own name as of the Closing Date.
(c) With respect to each Property, all revenues from Facility operations accruing or relating to the period up to and including 11:59 p.m. in the jurisdiction in which the Properties are located on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (“Cut-Off Time”) shall belong to the applicable Seller. All revenues from Facility operations accruing or relating to the period after the Cut-Off Time shall belong to Purchaser. Without limiting the foregoing, it is the agreement and intent of the parties that all revenues shall be prorated as of the Closing Date.
(d) With respect to each Property, all obligations and liabilities and accounts payable for the Facility and the Real Property owing as of the Closing Date for merchandise, equipment, supplies and other materials and services paid, incurred or ordered shall be prorated between the applicable Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing Date based on whether the merchandise, equipment, supplies and other materials remain in inventory as of the Closing Date and when the services were, or are, be rendered, i.e., prior to, or on or after the Closing Date.
(e) Except as covered by the terms of Section 7.5(a) above, with respect to each Property, all water and sewer charges, taxes (other than ad valorem property taxes), and any unpaid taxes payable in arrears, shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. Each Seller will be credited for that portion of taxes and fees paid by such Seller allocable to the period after the Closing Date.
(f) With respect to each Property, all payments and receipts, as applicable, under the Assumed Contracts shall be prorated between Purchaser and the applicable Seller as of the Closing Date. The applicable Seller shall receive a credit for all prepayments and deposits thereunder which are transferred to Purchaser. In consideration for Purchaser’s agreement to honor (i) any written policy currently in place at a Facility with respect to waitlist deposits or (ii) the terms of those Assumed Contracts
- 24 -
entered into by and between a Seller and a prospective resident (i.e., to admit the prospective resident as a resident of the applicable Facility on the same terms and conditions as such prospective resident would have been admitted to the applicable Facility had Seller still owned the Facility), Purchaser shall receive a credit for all waitlist deposits made by prospective residents.
(g) With respect to each Property, all other income derived by the applicable Seller from the Property accruing or relating to the period up to and including the Cut-Off-Time shall be paid to such Seller. All other income derived by such Seller from the Property accruing or relating to the period on and after the Cut-Off-Time shall be paid to Purchaser.
(h) Subject to Section 7.5(i) below, with respect to each Property, the Accounts Receivable shall be and remain the property of the applicable Seller subsequent to the Closing of the transaction contemplated hereby. At the Closing, each Seller shall prepare a list of its outstanding Accounts Receivable as of the Cut-Off Time, specifying the name of each account and the amount due to it. Purchaser shall hold in trust for each Seller any funds which are received by Purchaser as payment of such Seller’s Accounts Receivable, i.e., if Purchaser actually collects any such amounts, Purchaser shall pay the monies collected in respect thereof (net of actual collection costs) to such Seller promptly following the end of the calendar month in which such amounts are collected, accompanied by a statement showing the amount collected on each such account. Other than the foregoing, Purchaser shall have no obligation with respect to any such account, and Purchaser shall not be required to take any legal proceeding or action to effect collection on behalf of any Seller. It is the intention of Purchaser and Sellers that although the Accounts Receivable shall be and remain the property of Sellers, still, if any such accounts are paid to Purchaser, then Purchaser shall collect same and remit to the applicable Seller in the manner above provided. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to preclude Sellers from enforcing collection of the Accounts Receivable which are owed to Sellers; provided, in no event shall Seller be entitled to commence termination or eviction proceedings with respect to any Lease or Resident Agreement. The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing.
(i) With respect to each Property, all rentals and other resident charges, including any community fees and reimbursements, in respect to the month in which the Closing Date occurs (the “Current Month”) shall be prorated as of the Cut-Off Time, whether or not actually received prior to the Closing Date. All rentals and other charges received by Purchaser from a resident under a Resident Agreement or a tenant under Lease after the Closing Date that are not Sellers’ Accounts Receivable shall be applied first to collection costs and then to the most recently accrued obligation of such resident or tenant, as applicable. After application as set forth above, Purchaser shall promptly remit to the applicable Seller that portion of rentals and other resident charges received after the Closing Date attributable to periods prior to the Cut-Off Time. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary herein, (i) to the extent that any Seller receives any payment with respect to the Licensed Facility that was owned by such Seller after the Cut-Off Time from a third-party payor that relates to periods after the Cut-Off Time, Seller shall hold in trust for Purchaser such funds and pay such funds to Purchaser promptly
- 25 -
following the end of the calendar month in which such funds are collected and (ii) to the extent that Purchaser receives any payment with respect to a Licensed Facility after the Cut-Off Time from a third-party payor that relates to periods before the Cut-Off Time, Purchaser shall hold in trust for the applicable Seller such funds and pay such funds to the applicable Seller at the end of the calendar month in which such funds are collected. Each Seller shall retain, with respect to its respective Property, the right to pursue directly collection of amounts due on account of the period prior to the Cut-Off Time, provided, in no event shall Seller be entitled to commence termination or eviction proceedings with respect to any Lease or Resident Agreement.
(j) Purchaser shall receive a credit for (a) prepaid rents and other resident charges, including any community fees, applicable to periods after the Cut-Off Time, and (b) any refundable security deposits (and if Legal Requirements or any agreements require a landlord to be accountable for interest on such refundable security deposits, any accrued interest owed thereon), which credit shall be applied against the Allocated Purchase Price for the Property at which there exist prepaid rents and other resident charges or refundable security deposits.
(k) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all apportionments and adjustments shall be made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The computation of the adjustments shall be jointly prepared by Sellers and Purchaser. In the event any prorations or apportionments made under this Section 7.5 shall prove to be incorrect for any reason, then any party shall be entitled to an adjustment to correct the same in accordance with the remaining terms of this Section 7.5(k). To the extent the exact amount of any adjustment item provided for in this Section 7.5 cannot be precisely determined on the Closing Date, such prorations and apportionments shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and re-prorated when the information is available. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustment or re-proration pursuant to the two immediately preceding sentences shall be made, if at all, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date (except with respect to taxes and assessments, in which case such re-proration shall be made within sixty (60) days after the information necessary to perform such re-proration is available). All payments to be made as a result of the final results of the adjustments shall be paid to the party entitled to the same within thirty (30) days after the final determination thereof. Sellers and Purchaser agree that none of the insurance policies relating to any Property will be assigned to Purchaser (and each Seller shall pay any cancellation fees or minimum earned premiums resulting from the termination of the policies relating to its respective Property) and Purchaser shall be responsible for arranging for its own insurance as of the Closing Date.
7.6 Closing Costs. With respect to the title insurance policy insuring Purchaser’s title to the Properties, Seller shall bear the cost of the premium for the base property title insurance policy but Purchaser shall bear the cost of any and all endorsements to the title insurance policy requested by Purchaser or its lender. Purchaser shall bear the cost of any update to the Survey obtained by Purchaser and one-half of all escrow and closing fees relating to the sale of the Property imposed by Escrow Agent. Sellers shall pay any compensation due to Financial Advisor, and one-half (1/2) of all escrow and closing fees relating to the sale of such Property
- 26 -
(but, in each case, not in connection with any financing by Purchaser, which shall be paid solely by Purchaser). Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees pertaining to the sale of the Properties. Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of any mortgage taxes or recording fees for the mortgage securing Purchaser’s loan. All other costs pertaining to the sale of each Property shall be allocated as is customary for real estate transactions where the applicable Property is located; provided that any such closing costs that are to be paid by Sellers shall be allocated among Sellers so that each Seller shall be responsible solely for that portion of such closing costs associated with the sale of Seller’s Property.
7.7 Possession. Purchaser shall be entitled to sole possession of each Property on the Closing Date, subject to the possessory rights of any resident of the Facility and the terms of the Leases and Assumed Contracts.
7.8 Post-Closing Audit. Sellers acknowledge and agree to assist the Purchaser in conducting, no later than seventy-four (74) days following the Closing Date, an audit of property-level financials for each Property as specified by Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, provided such audit shall be at the sole cost and expense of Purchaser. In connection therewith, Sellers agree to obtain and provide to the auditors, at no cost to Sellers, any and all data and financial information, except for information constituting Excluded Assets, in the possession of Sellers that are necessary or required by the auditors in connection with their preparation and conducting of the foregoing audit. The rights and obligations of Purchaser and Sellers under this Section 7.8 shall survive Closing.

- 28 -

Subject to the provisions of Sections 8.3(b), Seller (solely with respect to its respective Property and not for any other Seller or any other Property) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser against any and all labor or employment claims, liabilities or obligations (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) that arise or accrue before, or arise out of events occurring before, the Closing Date, which indemnity shall survive Closing.

After the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, except with respect to any Facility’s Executive Director (access to whom is governed by the terms of Section 5.2), each Seller shall afford Purchaser with opportunities to meet with any employees of such Seller or Manager who are involved in the operation of each Facility and each Property. Such meetings shall be at such times as mutually agreed to by the applicable Seller and Purchaser and such Seller shall be entitled to have a representative present at any such
- 29 -
meetings with the employees at its Property.

Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Seller, and its respective Affiliates, owners and employees from and against (i) any and all claims, penalties, damages, liabilities, actions, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) under the WARN Act or any comparable state law, to the extent that such claims, penalties, damages and expenses arise in connection with Purchaser’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 8.3(b) and (ii) any and all labor or employment claims, liabilities and obligations (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) that arise or accrue from or after, or arise out of events occurring from or after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, all claims arising as a result of the termination by Purchaser of any Facility employee or personnel performing services at or for a Facility.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, there shall be no apportionment or proration of medical, pension, welfare benefits, other employee benefits or other fringe benefits (hereinafter collectively referred to as “benefits”) and Seller (solely with respect to its respective Property, and not for any other Seller or any other Property) shall remain liable for and hereby indemnify and save Purchaser, and its affiliates, harmless from and against all benefits due to employees under plans in which employees participate prior to Closing, and all payments due on the plans providing such benefits. Sellers agree to give all affected employees written notice of termination of participation of employees working at any Property in any applicable 401(K) or other pension or retirement plan affecting the employees. The obligations of Sellers and Purchaser set forth in this Section 8.3 shall survive Closing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of any right by Purchaser to terminate this Agreement (including without limitation, pursuant to Sections 10.3 and 11.2 below), Sellers shall first have the right, at their sole option by written Notice to Purchaser within two (2) business days of the date of Sellers’
- 34 -
receipt of such Notice of termination by Purchaser, to elect to cure any failure of a covenant, condition or inaccurate representation or warranty, by the payment of money or otherwise (but, in all events, in a manner reasonably acceptable to Purchaser), in which case, (a) the Closing Date will be extended at Sellers’ option for a period of time not to exceed ten (10) days for Sellers to effectuate such cure, and (b) Purchaser and Sellers shall each act reasonably and in good faith to agree on the sufficiency of such cure. If Sellers are unable to cure any such failure, inaccuracy, misrepresentation, failed covenant or obligation or other condition, then Purchaser’s sole recourse shall be to either (i) to terminate this Agreement and cancel the Escrow, in which case the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither Sellers nor Purchaser will have any further liability or obligation under this Agreement (except for those obligations which survive in accordance with their terms), or (ii) proceed with the closing, without reservation, in which case Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived all Claims against such Seller(s) with respect to such false or inaccurate representation and warranty.
9.5 Survival Period. Subject to Section 11.5 below, the representations and warranties of each Seller and Purchaser set forth in this Agreement shall survive until the Survival Date (as hereinafter defined), at which time such representations and warranties shall terminate.

11.3 Limitations of Purchaser’s Post-Closing Claims.
(a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in any document or instrument (including any xxxxx, xxxx of sale or assignments) executed by any Seller and delivered to Purchaser at or in connection with the Closing, (collectively, “Closing Documents”), no Seller shall have (and each Seller is exculpated and released from any) liability whatsoever with respect to any Claims under, and Purchaser shall be forever barred from making or bringing any Claims with respect to, any of the representations and warranties, covenants and indemnities contained in this Agreement or in any Closing Document, except to the extent (and only to the extent) that the aggregate amount of all Claims for breach of any Seller’s representations and warranties, covenants and indemnities exceed One Hundred Thousand and NO/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) (the “Threshold Amount”) (but if any such Claims are valid and are finally determined (or settled) to be in excess of the Threshold Amount, then Seller’s liability shall extend to the “first dollar” of Purchaser’s Claims); provided, however, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in any Closing Document, the total liability of a Seller for any or all Claims with respect to its respective Property may not exceed the amount listed opposite such Seller’s name in Column 3 of Exhibit “L” (each such amount, the “Cap Amount”). The Cap Amount shall be placed in escrow with the Post-Closing Escrow Agent at Closing out of funds that would otherwise be payable to Sellers (the “Post-Closing Liability Escrow”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of Post-Closing Escrow Agreement, in form and content as attached hereto as Exhibit “M” (the “Post-Closing Escrow Agreement”). The amount of the Cap Amount for each Property shall be
- 38 -
allocated based on the percentage contribution shown in Exhibit “L”. The Post-Closing Escrow Agreement shall further provide that on the date which is six (6) months after the Closing Date, the Post-Closing Escrow Agent shall refund to Sellers fifty percent (50%) of the Cap Amount unless there exists a Pending Claim, as hereinafter provided, and on the Survival Date, the Post-Closing Escrow Agent shall refund to Sellers any remaining balance of the Post-Closing Liability Escrow (including any interest earned thereon), in each case unless there is a Pending Claim, in which event the Post-Closing Liability Escrow shall remain in place until the Pending Claim is definitively resolved by agreement of the parties or final court order but all funds in the Post-Closing Liability Escrow, other than those funds that are to be retained by the Post-Closing Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, shall be released to Sellers as of the Survival Date. If any amount remains in the Post-Closing Liability Escrow following the definitive resolution of the Pending Claim by agreement of the parties or final court order, such amount should be released to Sellers. For purposes of clarification, the terms of this Section 11.3 shall not apply to any liability of Sellers to any third parties unaffiliated with Purchaser regarding the Retained Liabilities.
(b) Purchaser shall not make any Claim with respect to a Property or deliver any notice of a Claim with respect to a Property (a “Claim Notice”) unless in good faith, it believes the Claim or all of the Claims with respect to a Property in the aggregate would exceed the applicable Threshold Amount.
11.4 Survival of Purchaser’s Claims. Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, the representations and warranties, covenants and indemnities of each Seller contained herein or in any Closing Document shall survive only until the date that is nine (9) months after the Closing Date (the “Survival Date”). Any Claim that Purchaser may have at any time against any Seller for breach of any such representation, warranty, covenant or indemnity, whether known or unknown, with respect to which a Claim Notice has not been delivered to such Seller on or prior to the Survival Date, shall not be valid or effective and the party against whom such Claim is asserted shall have no liability with respect thereto. Any Claim that Purchaser may have at any time against a Seller for a breach of any such representation or warranty, or its covenants and indemnities whether known or unknown, with respect to which a Claim Notice has been delivered to such Seller on or prior to the Survival Date (a “Pending Claim”) may be the subject of subsequent litigation brought by Purchaser against such Seller. For avoidance of doubt, on the Survival Date, each Seller shall be fully discharged and released (without the need for separate releases or other documentation) from any liability or obligation to Purchaser and/or its successors and assigns with respect to any Claims or other matters relating to this Agreement or any Closing Document, except solely for those matters that are then the subject of a Claim Notice delivered by Purchaser to such Seller on or prior to the Survival Date that is still pending on the Survival Date.
11.5 Limitations on Liability. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, no shareholder, director, officer or employee of any party to this Agreement shall have any personal liability with respect to the liabilities or obligations of such party under this Agreement or any document executed by such party pursuant to this Agreement.
11.6 Survival. Article XI shall survive the Closing.

14.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, and Exhibits and Schedules and other documents and instruments attached to or referenced herein, contain the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property, and all prior and contemporaneous understandings, letters of intent, agreements and representations, whether oral or written, are entirely superseded.

14.12 Risk of Loss. With respect to each Property, the risk of loss shall be as follows:

Upon Purchaser’s receipt of a Casualty Notice, Seller and Purchaser shall meet promptly to estimate the cost to repair and restore the Improvements to good condition and to replace the damaged Personal Property (“Casualty Renovation Cost”). If the parties are unable to agree on the cost of restoration, the matter will be submitted to an engineer designated by Seller and an engineer designated by Purchaser, each licensed to practice in the state in which the Land is located, and the engineers shall resolve the dispute. Each party hereto shall bear the costs and expenses of its own engineer.
- 43 -
(b) If the Casualty Renovation Costs for both Facilities in the aggregate exceed One Million and NO/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00), then, Purchaser may, at its option, elect to terminate this entire Agreement by Notice to Sellers within ten (10) business days after the date that the Casualty Renovation Cost is determined. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement , then the Closing shall take place as provided herein without reduction of the Purchase Price and the applicable Seller shall assign the insurance proceeds to Purchaser in the event the Casualty is insured against and shall pay to Purchaser the amount of any deductible not already otherwise paid by such Seller under applicable insurance policies, or have the Allocated Purchase Price for the Property that was damaged by the Casualty reduced by the Casualty Renovation Cost in the event the Casualty is not fully insured against (subject to further adjustment for actual restoration costs).
(c) If the Casualty Renovation Cost is One Million and NO/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or less, then, in any such event, neither party hereto shall have any right to terminate this Agreement, the Closing shall take place as provided herein without reduction of the Purchase Price, and the applicable Seller shall assign the insurance proceeds to Purchaser in the event the Casualty is insured against and shall pay to Purchaser the amount of any deductible, under applicable insurance policies, or have the Allocated Purchase Price for the Property that was damaged by the Casualty reduced by the Casualty Renovation Cost in the event the Casualty is not fully insured against (subject to further adjustment for actual restoration costs).
(d) If, prior to the Closing Date, a Seller receives notice that a material portion of a Property (or access or other material rights in connection therewith) as would materially adversely affect the operation of the Facility or uses of the Property is, or has been threatened in writing by a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction, to be taken by condemnation or eminent domain, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser, and at the election of Purchaser this Agreement shall, upon the giving of Notice of such event or of the condemning authorities’ intention so to take the Property, to the extent that the taking or condemnation is reasonably anticipated to materially adversely affect the operation of the Facility or uses of the Property, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement prior to the Closing Date, on the Closing Date all of the proceeds of any award or payment made or to be made by reason of such taking shall be assigned by the applicable Seller to Purchaser, and any money theretofore received by the applicable Seller in connection with such taking shall be paid over to Purchaser, whereupon Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price without abatement by reason of such taking. No Seller shall settle, agree to, or accept any award or payment in connection with a taking of less than all of the Property without obtaining Purchaser’s prior written consent in each case, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(e) In the event of any termination of this Agreement in its entirety by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 14.12, the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further liability with respect to this Agreement, except to the extent of such provisions which expressly survive such transaction.
- 44 -
(f) Notwithstanding any language to the contrary herein, the parties acknowledge that the roofs of the Facilities have suffered storm damage, that Purchaser’s sole right to terminate this Agreement on account of such roof damage shall be during the Due Diligence Period, that the occurrence of such roof damage shall not constitute a Casualty for the purposes of this Section 14.12, and that the roof damage shall be addressed as provided in the remainder of this paragraph. Sellers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the roof damage to be repaired prior to Closing. To the extent the roof damage has not been repaired by Closing, each Seller shall (i) assign to Purchaser its respective right to receive any additional insurance proceeds on account of such roof damage plus (ii) to the extent the remaining insurance proceeds are insufficient to complete the roof repair, provide Purchaser a credit against the Allocated Purchase Price for its Property in the amount necessary to complete the roof repair less the amount of the assigned insurance proceeds. Following Closing, Seller shall have no further liability on account of such roof damage.

14.16 Confidentiality. Other than as required or permitted by the terms of this Agreement or required by any Legal Requirements (including without limitation, any disclosures required or advisable by Sellers or Purchaser under any applicable securities laws or practices), no party hereto shall release or cause or permit to be released any press notices or releases or publicity (oral or written) or advertising promotion relating to, or otherwise announce or disclose or cause or permit to be announced or disclosed, in any manner whatsoever, the terms and conditions of the purchase and sale transaction for the Properties, nor shall Purchaser or its agents or representatives disclose, in any manner whatsoever, (a) the information provided to Purchaser by any Seller or its representatives, or (b) any analyses, compilations, studies or other documents or records prepared by or on behalf of Purchaser, in connection with Purchaser’s investigation of the Properties, without first obtaining the written consent of Sellers (collectively, “Proprietary Information”). Proprietary Information shall not include (i) publicly available information or (ii) information that becomes publicly available for reasons other than a breach of this section by Purchaser. The foregoing shall not preclude Purchaser (i) from discussing the Proprietary Information with any person who is employed by Purchaser or who, on behalf of Purchaser, is actively and directly participating in the purchase and sale of the Properties, including, without limitation, to Purchaser’s shareholders, partners, members, existing or prospective lenders, attorneys, accountants and other consultants and advisors, or (ii) from complying with all laws, rules, regulations and court orders, including, without limitation, governmental regulatory, disclosure, tax and reporting requirements; provided, however, that if Purchaser is required by applicable law or legal process to disclose any Proprietary Information, Purchaser agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that, if possible, confidential treatment will be accorded to the Proprietary Information. Purchaser shall inform its respective representatives of the confidential nature of the Proprietary Information and shall

direct them to be bound by the terms of this Section. In addition to any other remedies available to Sellers, Sellers shall have the right to seek equitable relief, including, without limitation, injunctive relief or specific performance, against Purchaser in order to enforce the provisions of this Section. The provisions of such confidentiality agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
14.17 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Sellers and Purchaser agree that there are no third parties who are intended to benefit from or who are entitled to rely on any of the provisions of this Agreement. No third party shall be entitled to assert any claims or to enforce any rights whatsoever pursuant to this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the covenants and agreements provided in this Agreement are solely for the benefit of Sellers and Purchaser and their permitted successors and assigns respectively.
14.18 Electronic Signatures. The execution of this Agreement and all Notices given hereunder and all amendments hereto, may be effected by portable document format (“.pdf”) signatures, all of which shall be treated as originals; provided, however, that the party receiving a document with a .pdf signature may, by Notice to the other, require the prompt delivery of an original signature to evidence and confirm the delivery of the .pdf signature. Purchaser and Sellers each intend to be bound by its respective .pdf transmitted signature, and is aware that the other party will rely thereon, and each party waives any defenses to the enforcement of the Agreement, and documents, and any Notices delivered by .pdf transmission.
14.19 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each such term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
14.20 Cumulative Remedies. No remedy conferred upon a party in this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute (except as otherwise expressly herein provided).
14.21 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
