(ii) to postpone the Closing for up to 30 days, whereupon Holiday Inc., the
Sellers and Purchaser shall continue to use their reasonable best efforts during
the ensuing 30 days to procure such Required Consent, or (iii) to waive the
requirement for the Required Consent. If the Purchaser elects alternative (iii),
the Purchaser may permit the Sellers, to the maximum extent permitted by law and
the Purchased Asset, to act for up to one (1) year after the Closing, as the
Purchaser's agent and at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, in order to obtain
for the Purchaser the benefits thereunder, and the Sellers shall reasonably
cooperate, to the extent permitted by law and the Purchased Assets, with the
Purchaser in any other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits
to the Purchaser. All such consents, waiver and estoppels shall be in writing

counterparts thereof will be delivered to the Purchaser promptly after receipt
thereof but in no event later than the Closing.

the continuing obligation up to and including the Closing Date to supplement
promptly or amend the Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement with respect to
any matter hereafter arising or discovered which, if existing or known at the
date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or listed in
any such Schedule or Exhibit, including any default by any Sellers or any other
party under any Assigned Contract or Real Property Lease; provided, however,
that for the purpose of the rights and obligations of the parties under this
Agreement, any such supplemental disclosure shall not be deemed to have been
disclosed as of the date of this Agreement unless so agreed to in writing by (i)
the Purchaser, in the case of supplemental disclosures made by the Sellers, or
(ii) the Sellers, in the case of supplemental disclosure made by the Purchaser.

10 days after receipt by the Purchaser of any report of title examination
undertaken by the Purchaser with respect to any of the foregoing, the Purchaser
shall provide the Sellers with a list of all Encumbrances which the Purchaser
desires the Sellers to satisfy, terminate or discharge.
6.8. SATISFACTION OF CONDITIONS. From the date of this Agreement
through the Closing Date, Holiday Inc. and the Sellers shall use their
reasonable best efforts to cause to be satisfied all conditions to the
obligation of the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall use its reasonable best
efforts to cause to be satisfied all conditions to the obligation of the
Sellers, to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE 9
POST CLOSING MATTERS
9.1. STAFFING OF OPERATION. It is the Purchaser's intention, on or
immediately after the Closing Date, to staff the operation with its own
workforce, which may include certain of the Sellers' employees. The Sellers
shall be responsible for the payment of all accrued but unpaid wages, vacation
pay, sick pay, and holiday pay to all its employees up to and including the date
the Sellers terminate the employment of such employees. The Sellers shall be
responsible for the payment of any amounts due to its employees pursuant to the
Benefit Plans. The Sellers will be responsible for reporting and paying all
employee-related costs and liabilities of its employees accruing prior to the
Closing Date. The Sellers will retain all liability for all workers'
compensation claims to which any of the Sellers' employees may be eligible for
injuries or occupational illnesses incurred or accruing on or prior to the
Closing Date, and agrees to pay all benefits and awards granted to such
employees when due.
9.2. THE BENEFIT PLANS. The Purchaser will not assume, and shall have
no responsibility with regard to, any of the Benefit Plans.
9.3. ASSISTANCE TO THE PURCHASER. The Sellers shall use their
reasonable best efforts to assist the Purchaser in employing, as new employees
of the Purchaser, all persons presently engaged in the Sellers' Business who are
identified by the Purchaser as persons the Purchaser desires to employ. The
Sellers will not attempt to retain any of their employees which the Purchaser
desires to employ.

Sellers shall deliver to Purchaser a list of the creditors and amounts owed for
all Excluded Liabilities and all other obligations and liabilities incurred by
the Sellers that are not assumed by the Purchaser under this Agreement.

shall preserve until the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date all Books and
Records possessed or to be possessed by such party relating to any of the
assets, liabilities or business of the Sellers' Business prior to the Closing
Date. After the Closing Date, where there is a reasonable business purpose, such
party shall provide the other parties with access, upon prior reasonable written
27
request specifying the need therefor, during regular business hours, to (i) the
officers and employees of such party and (ii) the books of account and records
of such party, but, in each case, only to the extent relating to the assets,
liabilities or business of the Sellers' Business prior to the Closing Date, and
the other parties and their representatives shall have the right to make copies
of such books and records. However, the foregoing right of access shall not be
exercisable in such a manner as to interfere unreasonably with the normal
operations and business of such party; the party providing access thereto may
designate a site other than its offices as the location for such inspections;
and as to so much of such information as constitutes trade secrets or
confidential business information of such party, the requesting party and its
officers, directors and representative will use due care to not disclose such
information, except (i) as required by law, (ii) with the prior written consent
of such party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, or (iii) where
such information becomes available to the public generally, or becomes generally
known to competitors of such party, through sources other than the requesting
party, its affiliates or its officers, directors or representatives. Such
records may nevertheless be destroyed by a party if such party sends to the
other parties written notice of its intent to destroy records, specifying with
particularity the contents of the records to be destroyed. Such records may then
be destroyed after the 30th day after such notice is given unless another party
objects to the destruction, in which case the party seeking to destroy the
records shall deliver such records to the objecting party.
9.6. PAYMENTS RECEIVED. The Sellers and the Purchaser agree that after
the Closing they will hold and will promptly transfer and deliver to the each to
the other, from time to time as and when received by them, any cash, checks with
appropriate endorsements (using their reasonable best efforts not to convert
such checks into cash), or other property that they may receive on or after the
Closing which properly belongs to the other party, including, without
limitation, any insurance proceeds, and will account to the other for all such
receipts. The Sellers grant the Purchaser a power of attorney to receive and
open any mail or other correspondence addressed to Sellers at either the
Lexington location or the Prosperity location. The Purchaser shall deliver any
items belonging to the Sellers as required by this section. However, the
Purchaser may retain any items properly belonging to the Purchaser, even though
addressed to the Sellers.
ARTICLE 10
TERMINATION
10.1. TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated:
(a) by the mutual consent of the Purchaser and the Sellers;
(b) by the Purchaser (i) if any condition in Article 8 of this
Agreement becomes impossible of performance or has not been satisfied in full or
previously waived by the Purchaser in writing at or prior to the Closing Date,
or (ii) as provided in Section 6.5 above;
28
(c) by the Sellers if any condition in Article 7 of this
Agreement becomes impossible of performance or has not been satisfied in full or
previously waived by the Sellers in writing at or prior to the Closing Date; or
(d) by either party (other than a party that is in breach of
its obligations under this Agreement) if the Closing shall not have occurred on
or before July 25, 2003; provided, however, either the Sellers or the Purchaser
may postpone the Closing for periods of 10 days each, by written notice to the
other party, if such party reasonably determines that such additional time is
required to satisfy any conditions precedent to the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, but in no event shall date be
extended beyond August 25, 2003.
10.2. EFFECT OF TERMINATION. Each party's right of termination under
Section 10.1 is in addition to any other rights it may have under this Agreement
or otherwise, and the exercise of a right of termination will not be an election
of remedies. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, all
further obligations of the parties under this Agreement will terminate, except
that the obligations in Section 12.13 will survive; provided, however, that if
this Agreement is terminated by a party because of a breach of this Agreement by
the other party or because one or more conditions to the terminating party's
obligations under this Agreement is not satisfied as a result of the other
party's failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, the
terminating party's right to pursue all legal remedies will survive such
termination unimpaired.

30
11.4. PROCEDURES FOR INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) A claim for indemnification under this Agreement (an
"INDEMNIFICATION CLAIM") shall be made by the Indemnitee by delivery of a
written declaration to the Indemnitor requesting indemnification and specifying
the basis on which indemnification is or may be sought and the amount of
asserted Losses and, in the case of a Third Party Claim (as defined in Section
11.5 of this Agreement), containing (by attachment or otherwise) such other
information as Indemnitee shall have concerning such Third Party Claim.
(b) If the Indemnification Claim involves a Third Party Claim
the procedures set forth in Section 11.5 shall be observed by the Indemnitee and
the Indemnitor.
(c) If the Indemnification Claim involves a matter other than
a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall have 30 days to object to such
Indemnification Claim by delivery of a written notice of such objection to
Indemnitee specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such objection. Failure
to timely so object shall constitute a final and binding acceptance of the
Indemnification Claim by the Indemnitor and the Indemnification Claim shall be
paid in accordance with the following subsection (d). If an objection is timely
interposed by the Indemnitor and the dispute is not resolved within 60 days from
the date the Indemnitee receives such objection (the "NEGOTIATION PERIOD"), such
dispute may be resolved by binding arbitration in Lexington, Kentucky, in
accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration
Association then in effect, or by another appropriate proceeding. If such
dispute is submitted to arbitration, any award made therein shall be conclusive
and binding on the parties and enforceable in a court of law.
(d) Upon determination of the amount of an Indemnification
Claim, whether by the Indemnitor's failure to timely object, by agreement
between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee or by an adjudication of a court of
law or an arbitration award, Indemnitor shall pay the amount of such
Indemnification Claim by check within 10 days of the date such amount is
determined. Any Indemnification Claim not paid within 10 day period shall accrue
interest until paid at the Commercial Paper Rate.
11.5. DEFENSE OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. If any claim is made, or suit or
proceeding (including, without limitation, a binding arbitration or an audit by
any taxing authority) is instituted against the Indemnitee which, if prosecuted
successfully, would be a matter for which the Indemnitee would be entitled to
indemnification under this Agreement (a "THIRD PARTY CLAIM"), the obligations
and liabilities of the parties under this Agreement with respect to such Third
Party Claim shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) The Indemnitee shall give the Indemnitor written notice of
any such claim after receipt by the Indemnitee of notice or actual knowledge
thereof, and the Indemnitor will undertake the defense thereof by
representatives of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. The
assumption of the defense of any such claim by the Indemnitor shall be an
31
acknowledgment by the Indemnitor of its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee
with respect to such claim under this Agreement. If, however, the Indemnitor
fails or refuses to undertake the defense of such claim within 10 days after
written notice of such claim has been given to the Indemnitor by the Indemnitee,
the Indemnitee shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise and,
subject to Section 11.6 of this Agreement, settlement of such claim with counsel
of its own choosing. In the circumstances described in the preceding sentence,
the Indemnitee shall, promptly upon its assumption of the defense of such claim,
make an Indemnification Claim as specified in Section 11.4 of this Agreement,
which shall be deemed an Indemnification Claim that is not a Third Party Claim
for the purposes of the procedures set forth in this Article 11.
(b) The Indemnitee and the Indemnitor shall cooperate with
each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any
Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such claim and
furnishing, without expense to the Indemnitor, management employees of the
Indemnitee as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of
any such claim or for testimony as witness in any proceeding relating to such
claim.
11.6. SETTLEMENT OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. No settlement of a Third Party
Claim involving the asserted liability of the Indemnitor under this Article 11
shall be made without the prior written consent by or on behalf of the
Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Consent
shall be presumed in the case of settlements of $5,000 or less where the
Indemnitor has not responded within 30 calendar days of notice of a proposed
settlement. In the event of any dispute regarding the reasonableness of a
proposed settlement, the party that will bear the larger financial loss
resulting from such settlement shall make the final determination in respect
thereto, which determination shall be final and binding on all involved parties.
11.7. COOPERATION. The parties to this Agreement shall execute such
powers of attorney as may reasonably be necessary or appropriate to permit
participation of counsel selected by any party to this Agreement and, as may
reasonably be related to any such claim or action, shall provide access to the
counsel, accountants and other representatives of each party during normal
business hours to all properties, personnel, books, tax records, contracts,
commitments and all other business records of such other party and will furnish
to such other party copies of all such documents as may reasonably be requested
(certified, if requested).
11.8. SETOFF. The amount by which Holiday Inc. and the Sellers are
liable to the Purchaser for Indemnification Claims (including, without
limitation, amounts due to government agencies or third parties related to the
operation of the Sellers' Business prior to the Closing Date or other Excluded
Liabilities) hereunder shall, at the Purchaser's option and with the Sellers'
consent, be set off against payments hereunder or other amounts which may be or
become payable to the Sellers, including payment of any amounts due the Sellers
or their Affiliates under other agreements or related to other matters.
Purchaser's right of set off shall arise at the time an Indemnification Claim is
32
made by Purchaser to the extent such Indemnification Claim is determined or
agreed to be valid, but any amount withheld by Purchaser in excess of the
indemnity amount finally determined to be due shall be promptly refunded to
Seller with interest at the Commercial Rate plus two percentage points from the
date of set off or, if such offset was against the Asset Note or the Working
Capital Note, at the interest rate specified in such Note.
ARTICLE 12
GENERAL
12.1. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, ETC. The Sellers and the
Purchaser covenant and agree that their respective representations, warranties,
covenants, statements and agreements contained in this Agreement and the
exhibits to this Agreement and any document delivered in connection herewith
shall survive the Closing, except that the representations and warranties set
forth in Sections 5.4-5.25 shall expire and terminate one year after the date of
Closing.
12.2. WAIVERS. No waiver of any breach or delay in enforcing the terms
of this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation
by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the
party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, therein and in any document
delivered in connection herewith or therewith.
12.3. SPECIFIC ENFORCEMENT. The parties agree and acknowledge that in
the event of a breach by the Sellers or the Purchaser of any provision of this
Agreement, damages at law will be an insufficient remedy to the other party.
Accordingly, the parties agree that, in addition to any other remedies or rights
that may be available to any of them, the parties shall also each be entitled,
upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, to obtain temporary or
permanent injunctions to compel specific performance of the obligations of the
other party under this Agreement.
12.4. EXPENSES. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Holiday
Inc., the Sellers and the Purchaser shall pay their respective expenses in
connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, including the fees and expenses of their counsel, certified public
accountants and other advisors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser
shall pay all costs of filing or recording any instrument of conveyance for the
Purchased Assets and any sales or use taxes payable in connection with the
transfer of the Purchased Assets, and the Sellers shall pay all transfer,
