Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, following the Closing Purchaser shall, and hereby does, indemnify and hold Seller, Seller’s affiliates, and their respective partners, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (all of the foregoing, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless (on a joint and several basis) from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, causes of action, judgments, costs and expenses, including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys (collectively, “Losses”) that may be suffered or incurred by or asserted or awarded against any or all of the Seller Indemnified Parties relating to the Master Leases or the Property, in each case arising out of, or in connection with, or by reason of (a) any Proceeding (as defined below), or (b) any professional or general liability claim asserted by a third party against any or all of the Seller Indemnified Parties (individually and collectively, a “Claim”). Provided, however, that the preceding sentence shall not apply to Losses (i) for which both of the following are true: (x) such Losses were caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of a Seller Indemnified Party, and (y) no Purchaser Related Party took any action or made any omission which caused such Losses, or (ii) which result directly from a breach by a Seller Indemnified Party of its obligations under the Master Leases. Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller Indemnified Parties in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The obligations of the Purchaser under this Section 10(c) shall survive the Closing and terminate on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Closing, provided, however, that such obligations shall survive independently with respect to any Claims that have been made by any or all of the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to a Claim Notice (defined below) that is delivered to Purchaser on or prior to such anniversary. The following requirements shall be applicable with respect to all Claims and Losses:
4
(i) The applicable Seller Indemnified Parties will give prompt written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to Purchaser of any Loss that the applicable Seller Indemnified Parties discovers or about which they receive notice and that might give rise to a Claim by such Seller Indemnified Parties against Purchaser under this Section 10(c), stating the nature, basis and (to the extent known) amount thereof; provided, however, that failure to give such Claim Notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder to the extent that the failure to give such Claim Notice in a timely fashion does not have a material adverse effect on the Purchaser or Purchaser Related Parties. Copies of any papers received in connection with a Claim and a Loss shall be forwarded to Purchaser by the applicable Seller Indemnified Parties together with the Claim Notice.
(ii) In case of any Claim and Loss, after Seller delivers a Claim Notice, but prior to Purchaser’s delivery to Seller of a Defense Notice (defined below) in which Purchaser expressly assumes control of the defense or settlement of a Claim pursuant to subsection (iii) below, the applicable Seller Indemnified Parties (at the sole cost and expense of Purchaser) shall contest, resist and defend any such Claim asserted or instituted against such Seller Indemnified Parties with counsel selected by such Seller Indemnified Parties (the “Defense”).
(iii) The Purchaser shall have the right to control the defense or settlement of any Claim if Purchaser first confirms in writing to Seller that (A) such Claim is within the scope of the indemnity provided in this Section 10(c) and that Purchaser shall pay any and all amounts required to be paid in respect of such Claim (“Defense Notice”); and (B) any compromise or settlement of such Claim and related Loss shall be subject to and governed by the requirements of subsection 10(c)(v) below. If Purchaser elects to assume control of the defense or settlement of any Claim, it shall specifically so advise Seller in the Defense Notice. After Purchaser delivers to Seller a Defense Notice in which Purchaser expressly assumes control of the defense or settlement of a Claim, the Seller, at its election and sole cost and expense, shall have the right, but not the obligation to participate in the defense of any Claim. If Purchaser does not (x) timely satisfy its indemnification obligations under this Section 10(c) or (y) deliver a Defense Notice and elect to assume control of the defense or settlement of the Claim pursuant to this subsection (iii), then the applicable Seller Indemnified Parties shall continue the Defense in the manner and with the strategy they reasonably deem appropriate and those Seller Indemnified Parties shall determine, in their sole discretion, whether or not they shall settle or compromise the applicable Claim and if so, on what terms.
5
(iv) Purchaser and the applicable Seller Indemnified Parties will render to each other such assistance as may reasonably be required of each other in order to ensure a proper and adequate Defense of any Claim.
(v) Purchaser will not make any settlement or compromise of a Claim under this Section 10(c), without the prior written consent of Seller unless such settlement or compromise of a Claim includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Seller Indemnified Parties of an unconditional and irrevocable release from all liability in respect of such Claim (a “Release”). If Purchaser desires and is able to effect a bona fide compromise or settlement, at Purchaser’s sole expense, of any Claim involving a Loss, and such compromise or settlement includes, as an unconditional term thereof, a Release and the compromise or settlement does not require any form of relief from Seller Indemnified Parties other than Purchaser’s payment of money damages or other money payment, and Seller refuses to consent to such compromise or settlement, then Purchaser’s liability under this Section 10(c), with respect to such Claim shall be limited to the amount so offered in compromise or settlement, together with all legal and other expenses that may have been incurred prior to the date on which Seller refuses to consent to such compromise or settlement.
(d) The Seller Indemnified Parties that are not parties to this Agreement are third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.
(e) For purposes of this Section 10(c), “Proceeding” means any and all proceedings, including, without limitation, actions, suits, arbitrations, alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, investigations, administrative hearings, subpoenas and other proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except any proceedings initiated by the Seller Indemnified Parties against the Seller or the Tenants.
11. Brokers. Each of Seller and Purchaser represents to the other that it has not engaged or dealt with any broker, finder or investment advisor in connection with the sale of the Property or the other Transactions other than investment advisor(s) retained by it and covenants to pay any fees or other amounts owing to its investment advisor(s) on account of this Agreement or the Transactions. Seller and Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the other, its affiliates, and its and their officers, directors, affiliates, agents and employees, against and from all claims, demands, causes of action, judgments, and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) which arise from a breach of such parties’ respective representations and covenants set forth in this Section 11.

(b) Disclaimer. Purchaser agrees that Purchaser is purchasing the Property in “AS IS”, “WHERE IS”, “WITH ALL FAULTS” condition, and, subject to Section 5 and to Section 12(a), without any warranties, representations or guarantees, either express or implied, of any kind, nature, or type whatsoever from, or on behalf of, Seller. Without in any way limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that, in entering into this Agreement and closing the Transactions hereunder, but subject to Section 5 and to Section 12(a):
(i) Each of Seller and its affiliates, and its and their officers, directors, employees and agents, expressly disclaims, has not made, and will not and does not make, any warranties or representations, express or implied, with respect to the Property or any portion thereof, the physical condition or repair or disrepair thereof, the value, profitability or marketability thereof or the title thereto, or of any of the appurtenances, facilities or equipment thereon;

(iv) Purchaser has not relied upon any statement or representation by or on behalf of Seller unless such statement or representation is specifically set forth in this Agreement; and
(v) As of the date hereof, Purchaser has made such legal, factual and other inquiries and investigations as Purchaser has deemed necessary, desirable or appropriate with respect to the Property and the value and marketability thereof and of the appurtenances, facilities and equipment thereof. Such inquiries and investigations of Purchaser are hereby deemed to include, without limitation, the physical components of all portions of the Improvements, the condition of repair of the Property or any portion thereof, such state of facts as a current title report and/or an accurate survey would show or disclose, and the present and future zoning, ordinances, resolutions and regulations of the city, county and state where the Improvements are located.
7

With this entire Section 12(c) being subject to Section 10(c), each of Purchaser Related Parties (as hereinafter defined) and each of Seller Indemnified Parties hereby waives, releases and discharges at law, equity, contract, tort or otherwise any claim, known or unknown, matured or not matured, it has, ever had, might have had, or may have in the future against the other relating to, arising out of, resulting from or with respect to the Master Leases, the Property and the Guaranty, including without limitation: (i) the condition of the Property, either patent or latent, (ii) Purchaser Related Parties’ performance, non-performance, partial performance or breach (whether intentional, negligent or otherwise) of any obligation under the Master Leases, the Guaranty, and the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of a Purchaser Related Party under the Master Leases and the Guaranty, (iii) the Purchaser Related Parties’ ability, inability or failure, to obtain or maintain temporary or final certificates of occupancy or other licenses, permits or other governmental authorizations for the use or operation of the Improvements, and/or certificates of compliance for the Improvements, (iv) the content or form of all certificates, notices or other communications of the Purchaser Related Parties delivered under the Master Leases, the Guaranty, or the failure of the Purchaser Related Parties to deliver any such documents, including in each case, pertaining to the actual or reported occupancy of the Property or any part thereof or reported, actual or potential income, or profits, to be derived from the Property, (v) the real estate, or other, taxes or special assessments, now or hereafter payable on account of, or with respect to, the Property, (vi) Purchaser Related Parties’ ability or inability to demolish the Improvements or otherwise develop the Property, (vii) the environmental condition of the Property, (viii) any default or alleged default by the other with respect to the Master Leases, the Guaranty or the Property under the Master Leases, including without limitation, any default or alleged default regarding the granting or withholding of Seller’s consent to any proposed sublease(s) with respect to all or any portion of the Property or the Purchaser Related Parties obtaining, failure to obtain, maintain or breach of any governmental licenses, permits or approvals, orders, directions, surveys or other communications with any person in connection with the Master Leases, the Guaranty or any such proposed sublease(s), and also including without limitation, any defaults under the Master Leases or the Guaranty alleged at any time, or may be or may have been alleged by Seller Indemnified Parties against Purchaser Related Parties; (ix) the operation or management of the Property; or (x) any other matter relating to the Property, the Master Leases or the Guaranty. Further each of Purchaser Related Parties and Seller Indemnified Parties specifically hereby releases the other from all causes of actions, claims or rights alleged, or which could have been alleged, concerning or arising out of the matters set forth in the complaint or amended complaint filed in Ventas Realty, Limited Partnership v. ALC CVMA, LLC, et al., Case No. 12-CV-3107 (U.S. Dist. Ct. N. Ill.) (the “Pending Litigation”). It is the intention of both Seller and Purchaser that the language in this paragraph shall be read and construed liberally in order to allow the Seller Indemnified Parties and the Purchaser Related Parties to go their separate ways without any further disputes concerning any or all of the Property, the Master Leases and the Guaranty, its and their respective history and operation and in the case of the Property, the sale thereof; provided, however, that in all events and under all circumstances, the provisions of Section 10(c) shall survive the Closing for the period specified in Section 10(c), and in the event of any conflict between the provisions of Section 10(c) and those of this Section 12, the provisions of Section 10(c) shall control in all events. “Purchaser Related Parties” mean the Purchaser, the Purchasers’ affiliates and their respective partners, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns. The Purchaser Related Parties that are not parties to this Agreement are third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.
