The inspection, audit and measurement of the Property’s operation, condition and maintenance shall include, without limitation, such environmental and engineering inspections, reviews and assessments that Buyer has deemed appropriate. If Buyer, at Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, shall find such inspection(s), studies or evaluations to be unsatisfactory for any reason whatsoever, Buyer shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this Agreement on or before the Inspection Period Expiration Date, and upon such termination, the Property Information shall be returned to Seller, and upon such return of the Property Information, and thereupon the parties hereto shall have no further liabilities one to the other with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except for the provisions of this Agreement which expressly survive a termination hereof.

SECTION 10.3. Confidentiality. No party may issue a public announcement concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except as required by law or the rules of any securities exchange on which securities of such party or one of its affiliates are listed.
SECTION 10.4. Headings. The article and section headings of this Agreement are for convenience only and in no way limit or enlarge the scope or meaning of the language hereof.
SECTION 10.5. Invalidity and Waiver. If any portion of this Agreement is held invalid or inoperative, then so far as is reasonable and possible the remainder of this Agreement shall be deemed valid and operative, and effect shall be given to the intent manifested by the portion held invalid or inoperative. The failure by a party to enforce against any other party any term or
16
provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such party’s right to enforce against the other party the same or any other such term or provision in the future.
SECTION 10.6. Governing Law. This Agreement shall, in all respects, be governed, construed, applied, and enforced in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware.

In the case of any communication which requires a response within a specified period of time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the time period in which such response must be given shall commence upon the date of actual receipt of a hard copy (including a facsimile copy) of any such communication. Delivery to any officer, member, agent or employee of a party at the designated address of such party shall constitute actual receipt for purposes hereof. Until receipt of written notice to the contrary, the parties’ addresses for notices shall be served on the parties at the addresses set forth in Section 1.1.
SECTION 10.10. Construction. The parties acknowledge that the parties and their respective counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction — to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party — shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any exhibits or amendments hereto.
SECTION 10.11. Indemnity.
The following provisions govern actions for indemnity under this Agreement. Promptly after receipt by an indemnitee of notice of any claim, such indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnitor, deliver to the indemnitor written notice thereof and the indemnitor shall have the right to participate in such proceeding and, if the indemnitor agrees in writing that it will be responsible for any costs, expenses, judgments, damages, and losses incurred by the indemnitee with respect to such claim, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnitor, if the indemnitee reasonably believes that representation of such indemnitee by the counsel retained by the indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnitee and any other
17
party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of indemnitee to deliver written notice to the indemnitor within a reasonable time after indemnitee receives notice of any such claim shall relieve such indemnitor of any liability to the indemnitee under this indemnity only if and to the extent that such failure is prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, and the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnitor will not relieve it of any other liability that it may have to any indemnitee. If an indemnitee settles a claim without the prior written consent of the indemnitor, then the indemnitor shall be released from liability with respect to such claim unless the indemnitor has unreasonably withheld such consent.
SECTION 10.12. Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereto agrees to take such actions and execute such further documents, instruments and other agreements as may be reasonably requested by any other party hereto as may be reasonably necessary to carry out and implement the intent of this Agreement.
SECTION 10.13. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of such counterparts shall constitute one Agreement.
SECTION 10.14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
