Deposit shall be paid to WPPI at the time of Closing and be considered as partial payment of the CWI Contribution. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement as to the return of the Good Faith Deposit to CWI, the Good Faith Deposit shall be non-refundable to CWI.

2.8 Evidence of Title; Survey.

2.8.1 First American Title Insurance Company (the “Title Company”) has delivered to CWI that certain commitment for 2006 ALTA (6/17/06) – Form B Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance proposing to insure CWI’s good and marketable, indefeasible fee simple title to the Real Property (the “Title Commitment”), together with a copy of all documents referenced therein.

2.8.2 CWI has, at its sole expense, obtained an update to the existing survey prepared by Xxxxx Xxxxx and Associates, Inc. dated August 4, 2015, which was prepared in accordance with 2011 ALTA/ACSM Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for Land Title Surveys, including Table A Items Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6(b), 7(a), 7(b)(1), 7(c), 8, 9, 10(b), 11(a), 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20(a), and certified to CWI, the Company and the Title Company (the “Survey”).

2.8.3 Exceptions to Title.

(a) Attached as Exhibit “D” is CWI’s final form of pro forma title insurance policy, incorporating the data described in the survey, and including all endorsements thereto and all other insurance provisions as mutually agreed upon between CWI and the Title Company (the “Pro Forma Title Policy”), which is satisfactory to CWI in all respects. CWI acknowledges and agrees that the (i) liens, encumbrances or other exceptions to title set forth in the Pro Forma Title Policy (the “Title Exceptions”), (ii) all encroachments by improvements from adjoining properties onto or over the Land, any encroachments of the Improvements onto or over adjoining properties, setback lines, rights-of-way or easements (to the extent in violation thereof) or other survey defects (the “Survey Defects”) set forth on the Pro Forma Title Policy, and (iii) all matters shown in the Survey shall collectively constitute “Permitted Exceptions” to title to the Land (the “Permitted Exceptions”).

(b) If any update of the Title Commitment delivered to CWI after the Effective Date discloses any new Title Exception which was not disclosed in the Pro Forma Title Policy (a “New Title Exception”), or any update of the Survey delivered to CWI after the Effective Date discloses any new Survey Defect which was not disclosed in the Survey delivered to CWI prior to the Effective Date (a “New Survey Defect” and together with any New Title Exception, the “Unpermitted Exceptions”), and such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect was not caused by CWI, then CWI shall have the right to request WPPI to remove or cure such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect at or prior to Closing by providing written notice to WPPI promptly after determining (in CWI’s sole but reasonable discretion) that such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect is not acceptable to CWI (the “New Title and Survey Objection Notice”). The terms New Title Exception and New Survey Defect shall not include (i) exceptions or defects that do not impair the marketability of title to the Real Property, (ii) easements or agreements with a benefit to the operation of the Hotel, such as utility and reciprocal parking easements or (iii) easements or agreements which WPPI became legally

obligated to execute prior to the Effective Date and ultimately placed of record, such as the Tunnel Easements (collectively, the “Acceptable Matters”); provided, however, that the Acceptable Matters shall expressly exclude any liens of record encumbering the marketability of title arising as the result of or in connection with the Xxxxx dispute, the Construction Contract and/or the Architect Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including, without limitation, the terms of Section 2.8.3(c)), WPPI agrees that the following shall in all events constitute Unpermitted Exceptions which shall be removed from title by WPPI (the failure or refusal of which by WPPI at or prior to Closing shall constitute a default by WPPI hereunder): (i) any mechanics liens or judgments arising therefrom relating to Seller’s construction and/or development of the Hotel unless discharged by Closing pursuant to the posting of a bond or bonds in accordance with RCW 60.04.161, and (ii) subject to prorations, ad valorem real property taxes which constitute Title Exceptions which would be delinquent if unpaid at Closing, and if any such taxes are payable in installments, such obligation shall apply to all such installments which would be payable prior to or at Closing.

(c) Subject to Section 2.8.3(b) above, if CWI provides a New Title and Survey Objection Notice to WPPI, WPPI may elect, by providing written notice (the “New Title and Survey Election Notice”) to CWI within the earlier of (i) five (5) business days after WPPI’s receipt of such New Title and Survey Objection Notice or (ii) the Closing, to (A) accept such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect as an additional Unpermitted Exception to be removed at or prior to Closing, or (B) refuse to remove or cure such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect; provided, however, that if (1) WPPI or any Person on behalf of WPPI caused such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect, or (2) such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect, whether or not caused by WPPI, may be removed by the payment of liquidated amounts not in excess of $100,000 or the posting of a statutory bond with collateral not in excess of $150,000, then in each such instance, such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect shall constitute an Unpermitted Exception and WPPI shall be obligated to remove or cure such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect at or prior to Closing (the failure or refusal of which by WPPI at or prior to Closing shall constitute a default by WPPI hereunder). To the extent the New Title Exception relates to a lien filed against the Property that WPPI is obligated or elects to discharge and such lien was filed against the Property within ten (10) business days of the Target Closing Date or the Outside Closing Date, as applicable, WPPI shall have the right to elect by written notice to CWI to extend the Target Closing Date or the Outside Closing Date, as applicable, ten (10) calendar days to allow WPPI the ability to remove or cure such New Title Exception. If WPPI does not provide a New Title and Survey Election Notice to CWI within such time period, then WPPI shall be deemed to have elected to accept the New Title Exception or New Survey Defect as an Unpermitted Exception pursuant to clause (A) of the preceding sentence. If WPPI elects not to remove or cure (such cure to be subject to the reasonable approval of CWI) a New Title Exception or New Survey Defect, then CWI shall have the right to elect, by providing written notice (the “New Title and Survey Response Notice”) to WPPI within the earlier of five (5) business days after CWI’s receipt of the New Title and Survey Election Notice or the Closing to: (x) terminate this Agreement whereupon this Agreement shall automatically terminate and become null and void, and of no further force and effect, the Escrow Agent shall immediately return the Good Faith Deposit to CWI and the Parties shall have no further obligations under this Agreement, except as shall expressly survive the termination hereof or (y) proceed to Closing pursuant to this Agreement and accept title to the Real Property,

subject to such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect which thereafter shall be deemed to constitute a Permitted Exception. If CWI does not provide a New Title and Survey Response Notice to WPPI within such time period, CWI shall be deemed to have elected to proceed to Closing pursuant to this Agreement and accept title to the Real Property subject to such New Title Exception or New Survey Defect pursuant to clause (y) of the preceding sentence.

2.8.4 At the Closing, the Title Company shall be unconditionally and irrevocably prepared to issue a 2006 ALTA Owner’s (6/17/06) extended coverage policy of title insurance (the “Title Policy”) for the Real Property, in favor of the Company, dated as of the Closing, insuring that the Real Property is vested in the Company, with a liability limit on the policy in an amount determined by CWI not to exceed the CWI Contribution and otherwise in the form and with those endorsements required by the Pro Forma Title Policy with no exceptions other than the Permitted Exceptions and each and every title insurance endorsement required by the Pro Forma Title Policy (the “Title Endorsements”). The cost of the base Title Policy shall be paid by WPPI, and the cost of the Title Endorsements and any extended coverage, any loan policy and/or any endorsements required by any lender shall be paid by CWI.

2.9 Assumption of Existing Management Agreement. CWI acknowledges that the Hotel is currently being managed and operated by Hotel Manager pursuant to the Existing Management Agreement. CWI will cause the TRS to assume the Existing Management Agreement at Closing pursuant to an assignment and assumption agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “H” (the “HMA Assignment Agreement”). CWI acknowledges and agrees that the form of HMA Assignment Agreement has been finalized and approved by WPPI.

2.10 New Franchise Agreement.

2.10.1 On or before the Effective Date, CWI shall have obtained Franchisor’s written commitment to assign the existing franchise agreement at Closing to the TRS and amend the franchise agreement (the “New Franchise Agreement”) in the form and upon terms and conditions required by CWI in its sole and absolute discretion but consistent with CWI’s prior course of dealing with Franchisor (Franchisor’s commitment in writing to enter into the New Franchise Agreement, in accordance with the preceding sentence, shall be referred to herein as the “Franchisor Approval”). All Key Money shall remain with WPPI, no termination fees or other charges shall be imposed on WPPI and, to the extent termination fees or other charges are imposed or required, CWI shall pay such termination fees or other charges. Obtaining the Franchisor Approval and/or the New Franchise Agreement shall not be a condition to Closing under this Agreement and failure of CWI to close under this Agreement due to its failure to obtain the Franchisor Approval and/or the New Franchise Agreement shall be a default under this Agreement by CWI.

2.10.2 WPPI shall use good faith efforts and provide reasonable cooperation to CWI, at no cost or expense to WPPI, in connection with CWI’s efforts to obtain the New Franchise Agreement.

2.11 Permits. CWI, at its cost and expense, shall, prior to the Closing Date, submit (or cause Hotel Manager to submit) all necessary applications and other materials to the appropriate Governmental Authority and take such other actions to effect the transfer of Permits or issuance

of new Permits effective no sooner than the Closing, and WPPI, at no cost to WPPI, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with CWI to cause the Permits to be transferred or new licenses and permits or interim licenses and permits to be issued to TRS, the Company or Hotel Manager, as applicable.

2.12 AS-IS. The Property shall be conveyed, transferred and contributed to the Company “AS IS, WHERE IS AND WITH ALL FAULTS” and (except for the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.1 or in any of WPPI’s Closing deliverables pursuant to Section 6.1) specifically and expressly without any warranties, representations or guarantees, either express or implied, of any kind, nature or type whatsoever from or on behalf of WPPI.

CWI shall cooperate with WPPI in the collection of Accounts Receivable including executing an assignment or other documents confirming WPPI’s ownership thereof and authority to pursue collection. CWI shall receive a credit on the Closing Statement for Trade Payables, which have accrued, but are not yet due and payable as of the Closing Date and WPPI shall receive credit in such Closing Statement for any prepayments or deposits that WPPI has made to any vendors or suppliers of goods or services; provided, however, WPPI and CWI shall reprorate the amount of credit for any Trade Payables upon receipt of the actual xxxx for such goods or services. The prorations under this Section 4.2.4 shall be subject to reconciliation under Section 4.6.

4.2.5 Cash and Accounts. At the Closing, WPPI shall transfer to CWI all cash on hand, cash equivalents and all monies located in house banks, all checks, travelers’ checks, and bank drafts paid by guests of the Hotel and located at the Property and/or being held by WPPI and/or the Hotel Manager and WPPI shall be paid an amount at the Closing equal to such amount.

4.3 Utilities. All suppliers of utilities shall be instructed by WPPI to read meters or otherwise determine the charges owing as of the Closing Date for services prior thereto, which charges shall be allocated and, as mutually determined by the Parties, (i) be credited in an amount thereto to CWI at Closing; or (ii) allocated to WPPI prior to or at Closing. CWI shall retain any and all transferable utility deposits and WPPI shall be credited in an amount equal to such deposits.

4.4 Reserved.

4.5 Sales Tax. The Parties hereby agree that all sales and/or compensating use Taxes imposed upon or due to any Governmental Authority, if any, in connection with the one-time sale or conveyance of the Property shall be paid by WPPI (and shall constitute Excluded Liabilities for purposes of this Agreement). WPPI shall file all necessary Tax Returns with respect to such one-time payment. CWI shall be responsible for any additional sales and/or compensating use Taxes imposed as a result of the transaction contemplated hereunder or arise thereafter solely because the transaction was structured as a contribution and acquisition of a membership interest in the Company instead of a purchase by CWI of the fee interest in the Hotel pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

4.6 Post-Closing Prorations; Rebates, Refunds and Reserves.

4.6.1 If accurate prorations cannot be made at Closing because current bills are not obtainable (as, for example, in the case of utility bills and/or real estate or personal property Taxes), the Parties shall prorate such revenue or expenses at Closing on the best available information, subject to adjustment upon receipt of the final xxxx or other evidence of the applicable revenue or expense. If the Parties are unable to agree on any prorated items required to be contained in the Closing Statement at Closing, the Closing shall occur and a preliminary closing statement shall be signed with respect to such amounts and issues that are agreed upon by the Parties. If any refund or rebate of any real property Tax, water rates and charges, sewer Taxes and rents or similar items (a “Refund”) is issued after the Cut-Off Time for any period that includes periods prior to and after the Cut-Off Time, then such Refund shall be applied as follows: first, to the cost incurred in obtaining such Refund (and appropriately prorated based on the portion of said costs incurred prior to and after the Closing), and second, the balance of such Refund, if any, shall be prorated as of the Cut-Off Time. If any Refund relates solely to a period prior to the Cut-Off Time, such Refund shall be remitted by the Company to WPPI and such Refund shall be the sole property of WPPI. Any utility rebate (or credit) relating to the Puget Sound Energy Rebate program relating to the initial development of the Property or pre-Closing periods shall be allocated to and retained by WPPI and if the same is received after Closing by CWI or the Company, CWI or the Company, as applicable, shall promptly pay or remit such amounts to WPPI. Any reserves of funds of WPPI held by others shall belong and be tendered to WPPI. The provisions of this Section 4.6.1 shall survive the Closing.

4.6.2 Any prorations hereunder which cannot be finally determined as of Closing shall be reprorated ninety (90) days after Closing (“Post-Closing Prorations”) to the extent possible consistent with the procedures set forth in Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5. Any necessary payment required by such re-proration shall be made by the appropriate Party to the other Party within five (5) business days after such final determination.

WPPI shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CWI from and against any Claims of any Person to a real estate brokerage commission or a finder’s fee or other similar compensation as a result of having dealt with WPPI and/or its Affiliates in connection with this transaction. Other than Broker, WPPI represents and warrants to CWI and the Company that WPPI has not dealt with any real estate broker in connection with this transaction, nor has WPPI been introduced to CWI by any real estate broker. The provisions of this Section 4.7.1 shall survive the Closing and any termination of this Agreement.

4.9 Disputes. Any dispute between the Parties as to the monetary amount of any such revenues or expenses addressed in this Article 4 (the “Disputed Amounts”) shall be resolved by binding arbitration conducted by an Expert mutually approved by CWI and WPPI, provided that, in the event that the Parties are unable to agree upon an Expert within twenty (20) days after either Party has submitted the Disputed Amounts to binding arbitration, the Expert shall be appointed by JAMS within two (2) business days thereafter. Any arbitration shall be conducted pursuant to the JAMS’ Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “Rules”); provided, that no discovery shall be permitted other than pursuant to Rule 17(a) of the Rules. Each Party shall promptly, and in no event later than seven (7) days following appointment of the Expert, submit to the Expert their respective positions with respect to the Disputed Amounts, including their specific valuations or other proposed amounts in connection therewith. The Expert shall be instructed by the Parties to use its best efforts to make a reasoned final written determination within seven (7) days after the Parties submit in writing (or have had the opportunity to submit in writing but have not submitted) their positions as to the Disputed Amounts, final and binding on the Parties, of the Disputed Amounts presented to it. The Expert shall rely solely on such written submissions by the Parties with respect to the matters at issue and shall not undertake an independent investigation, but may make inquiries of the Parties. In rendering its decision and any award with respect to any item, the Expert shall be permitted to choose only between the respective amounts or other position set forth by CWI or WPPI, and shall not be permitted to render a decision that does not conform in all respects with either CWI’s or WPPI’s respective

amounts. No Party (or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives) shall have any ex parte communications or meetings with the Expert without the prior consent of the other Party. As part of the award, the Expert shall designate the Party whose position is upheld, and such prevailing Party shall recover from the other Party all of its reasonably attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, including its share of the fees and costs paid to the Expert, expert witness fees, compensation for in-house counsel, and all other fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the resolution of the Dispute.

ARTICLE 5.

REMEDIES

5.1 CWI’s Default. In the event CWI is in breach of this Agreement (without the failure of WPPI to satisfy a condition to close under Section 6.1) and fails to close the transaction contemplated under this Agreement on the Target Closing Date (or the Outside Closing Date, as applicable), then within five (5) business days after written notice of such breach from WPPI, WPPI shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement and retain the Good Faith Deposit, which retention thereof (together the collection of reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith) shall be WPPI’s sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement, at law or in equity, for such breach or default to close the transaction contemplated under this Agreement. In such event, WPPI shall be entitled to promptly instruct the Escrow Agent (with a copy to CWI) to release the Good Faith Deposit to WPPI. The escrow agreement with the Escrow Agent shall, among other terms, provide that WPPI shall be entitled to receive the Good Faith Deposit upon such instruction (i) unless within five (5) business days after delivery of WPPI’s instruction to release, CWI (acting in good faith) delivers a written notice to WPPI and Escrow Agent certifying that it is not default hereunder and objecting to the release and (ii) within thirty (30) days after delivery of WPPI’s instruction to release, CWI (acting in good faith) files an Action in the Designated Courts affirming that it is not in default, seeking to interplead the Escrow Agent to tender to the Designated Courts the Good Faith Deposit and seeking such other remedies as are consistent therewith; provided that nothing shall prohibit WPPI from filing an Action at any time seeking such to interplead the Escrow Agent to tender to the Designated Courts the Good Faith Deposit, seeking release of the Good Faith Deposit to WPPI and seeking such other remedies as are consistent therewith. THE PARTIES HAVE DISCUSSED THE POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES TO WPPI IN THE EVENT THAT THE CLOSING FAILS TO OCCUR AS A RESULT OF CWI’S BREACH OR DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES HAVE DETERMINED AND HEREBY AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE ACTUAL DAMAGES TO WPPI OCCURRING IN THE EVENT OF CWI’S BREACH OR DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE PARTIES, HAVING MADE DILIGENT BUT UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS TO ASCERTAIN THE ACTUAL COMPENSATORY DAMAGES WPPI WOULD SUFFER IN THE EVENT OF CWI’S DEFAULT HEREUNDER, HEREBY AGREE THAT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SUCH DAMAGES IS AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT, AND IN THE EVENT THIS TRANSACTION FAILS TO CLOSE DUE TO CWI’S BREACH OR DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, WPPI SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE AND RETAIN THE SAME AS FULLY AGREED LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. WPPI WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO SEEK OTHER

RIGHTS OR REMEDIES AGAINST CWI, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. THE PAYMENT AND RETENTION OF THE GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO WPPI. UPON ANY SUCH BREACH OR DEFAULT AND FAILURE TO CLOSE BY CWI HEREUNDER, THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE TERMINATED AND NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE ANY FURTHER RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, EACH TO THE OTHER, EXCEPT FOR THE RIGHT OF WPPI TO RETAIN OR RECEIVE SUCH GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT AND RECOVER ANY AMOUNTS WPPI IS ENTITLED TO UNDER SECTION 9.14, AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED ABOVE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT, UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF THIS TRANSACTION AND THE MARKETPLACE AT THE TIME HEREOF, THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION IS REASONABLE.


	WPPI’S INITIALS			CWI’S INITIALS

If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 5.1, then CWI shall pay any fees or charges due to the Escrow Agent holding the Good Faith Deposit as well as any escrow cancellation fees or charges or any fees or charges due to the Escrow Agent for preparation and/or cancellation of the Title Commitment.

5.2 WPPI’s Default. In the event of any breach or default by WPPI of this Agreement (including a material breach by WPPI of any of its representations and warranties hereunder or WPPI’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder) on or prior to the Target Closing Date (or Outside Closing Date, as applicable), then CWI, as its sole remedy for a pre-Closing default, may elect to either (a) seek an Action for specific performance provided that such Action is filed by CWI within thirty (30) days after the later of the Target Closing Date or the Outside Closing Date (as applicable), or (b) terminate this Agreement by written notice to WPPI. In such event, CWI shall be entitled to promptly instruct the Escrow Agent (with a copy to WPPI) to return the Good Faith Deposit to CWI. The escrow agreement with the Escrow Agent shall, among other terms, provide that CWI shall be entitled to a return of the Good Faith Deposit unless (i) within five (5) business days after delivery of CWI’s instruction to return the Good Faith Deposit, WPPI (acting in good faith) delivers a written notice to CWI and the Escrow Agent certifying that it is not in default hereunder and objecting to the release and (ii) within thirty (30) days after delivery of CWI’s instruction to release, WPPI (acting in good faith) files an Action in the Designated Courts affirming that it is not in default, seeking to interplead the Escrow Agent to tender to the Designated Courts the Good Faith Deposit and seeking such other remedies as are consistent therewith; provided that nothing shall prohibit CWI from filing an Action at any time seeking such to interplead the Escrow Agent to tender to the Designated Courts the Good Faith Deposit, seeking release of the Good Faith Deposit to CWI and seeking such other remedies as are consistent therewith. For a pre-Closing default by WPPI and in addition to the return of the Good Faith Deposit, CWI shall be entitled to obtain a reimbursement from WPPI of CWI’s actual out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and due diligence not to exceed Three Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000); provided, however, in the event that CWI makes an election for specific performance pursuant to clause (a) above and it is

determined that an Action for specific performance cannot be legally maintained by CWI against WPPI or such remedy is not available to CWI, then CWI may terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the pre-Closing default by WPPI arises from failing to remove or cure within the applicable time periods a New Title Exception or New Survey Defect required to be removed or cured pursuant to Section 2.8.3, CWI shall be entitled to obtain a reimbursement from WPPI of CWI’s actual out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and due diligence not to exceed Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000). If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 5.2, then WPPI shall pay any fees or charges due to the Escrow Agent holding the Good Faith Deposit as well as any escrow cancellation fees or charges or any fees or charges due to the Escrow Agent for preparation and/or cancellation of the Title Commitment.

5.3 Pre-Closing Termination. In the event this Agreement is terminated either by WPPI or CWI due to a default of the other Party as provided in Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, respectively, CWI shall promptly return or destroy all information obtained from WPPI in connection with its due diligence of the Property and Hotel and WPPI may elect to obtain all third party reports obtained by CWI in connection with its due diligence of the Property and the Hotel (but expressly excluding any third party reports containing attorney-client work product and/or internal notes prepared by personnel of CWI which are proprietary) by reimbursing CWI for fifty percent (50%) of the actual costs and expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such third party reports and CWI shall provide the same within five (5) days of such written request and payment therefor. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.1 and 5.2, the provisions expressly stated to survive the termination or are applicable after termination, including but not limited to Section 2.7.1, Section 4.7, Article 7, Section 9.2, Section 9.10 and Section 9.13, Section 9.14 and Section 9.16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

5.4 Indemnification.

5.4.1 From and after the Closing, subject to the provisions and limitations of this Article 5, WPPI hereby shall indemnify, protect, reimburse, defend and hold harmless CWI and its Affiliates and their respective parents, Affiliates, shareholders, officers, directors, members, partners, trustees, agents, representatives and employees (collectively, the “CWI Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Claims and Losses that any CWI Indemnified Party suffers as a result of, or directly or indirectly arising from or relating to:

(a) any Excluded Liabilities;

(b) any inaccuracy in or a breach by WPPI of any of the representation and warranties in Section 3.1 or Section 4.7.1 of this Agreement;

(c) any breach by WPPI of, or failure to comply with any of its covenants under this Agreement that survive after the Closing; and

(d) any failure of WPPI to have reported and/or paid any and all Taxes assessed or assessable by the State of Washington, the City of Bellevue and/or the County of King or any other Governmental Authority arising or related in any way to the obligations of

WPPI hereunder except to the extent CWI or the Company were afforded a credit therefore (and then such exception shall only be applicable to the extent of such credit).

5.4.2 From and after the Closing, CWI hereby shall indemnify, protect, reimburse, defend and hold harmless WPPI and its Affiliates and their respective parents, Affiliates, shareholders, officers, directors, members, managers, partners, trustees, agents, representatives and employees (collectively, the “WPPI Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Claims and Loss that any WPPI Indemnified Party suffers as a result of, or directly or indirectly arising from or relating to:

(a) all Assumed Liabilities;

(b) any inaccuracy in or a breach by CWI of any of the representation and warranties in Section 3.2 or Section 4.7.2 of this Agreement;

(c) any breach by CWI of, or failure to comply with any of its covenants under this Agreement that survive after the Closing; or

(d) CWI’s operation of the Property and Hotel from and after the Closing.

5.4.3 In the event that either Party believes that it is entitled to indemnity pursuant to this Agreement, such party (the “Claimant”) shall so notify the party which Claimant believes has an obligation to indemnify (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly in writing describing such Loss in reasonable detail, the amount thereof, if known, and the method of computation of such Loss, identifying the provisions of this Agreement that Claimant alleges was breached or gives rise to indemnity (an “Indemnification Notice”). If any Claim is commenced or filed by a third party with respect to which the Claimant intends to claim any Liability as a Loss, it shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party the amount thereof, if known, and the method of computation of such Loss, all with reasonable particularity (a “Litigation Notice”). The Indemnifying Party shall have ten (10) business days after receipt of an Indemnification Notice and/or Litigation Notice to notify Claimant if the Indemnifying Party (acting in good faith) disputes Claimant’s Indemnification Notice and/or Litigation Notice and their respective underlying Claims for indemnification or the amounts claimed for indemnification; provided that, if the Indemnifying Party fails to dispute an Indemnification Notice within such ten (10) business day period, the Indemnification Claim specified in the Indemnification Notice shall be conclusively deemed a Liability of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Liability within the time period as provided in Section 5.4.5. In the event any Indemnification Notice and/or Litigation Notice, as applicable, is disputed in good faith by the Indemnifying Party, the Parties agree that such dispute shall be submitted for resolution by a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that Claimant was entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. To the extent failure to notify the Indemnifying Party with reasonable promptness of an Indemnification Notice or Litigation Notice increases the Liability to the Indemnifying Party or otherwise materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to reimburse Claimant for the amount of such increase in Liability or to the extent that such claim is materially prejudiced as a result thereof.

5.4.4 In the event the Indemnifying Party does not dispute the Litigation Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall, within the same ten (10) business days period following receipt of the Litigation Notice, notify Claimant that it elects to conduct and control any such Claims (an “Election Notice”). If the Indemnifying Party does not give the foregoing Election Notice during such ten (10) business day period or disputes the Litigation Notice, the Claimant shall have the right (but not the obligation) to defend, contest, settle or compromise such Claim in the exercise of its reasonable discretion and any and all Losses in connection therewith shall be the responsibility of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party timely gives the foregoing Election Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to undertake, conduct and control, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense, the conduct and settlement of such Claim with counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably approved by Claimant, and the Claimant shall cooperate, including providing access to files and records, physical spaces, reports and investigations and personnel, as applicable, with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith; provided, however, that (a) the Indemnifying Party shall not thereby consent to the imposition of any injunction against or admission of liability by the Claimant or any other settlement or compromise that does not involve the payment of money without the prior written consent of the Claimant, (b) the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Claimant to participate in such conduct or settlement through legal counsel chosen by the Claimant, but the fees and expenses of such legal counsel shall be borne solely by the Claimant, (c) upon a final determination of such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the Claimant, to the extent required under this Section 5.4, for the full amount of any Loss incurred by the Claimant, except fees and expenses of legal counsel that the Claimant incurred pursuant to subparagraph (b) of this Section 5.4.4, (d) the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to pay or settle any action or suit provided the Claimant has no Liability with respect to such settlement and no injunctive relief against or admission of Liability by the Claimant or others restrictions of any kind are agreed to in connection with such settlement, and (e) the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to notify the Claimant that it is electing to conduct and control a Claim with a reservation of the Indemnifying Party’s rights as to whether it does, in fact, have an indemnity obligation in such instance, in which case no settlement of the Claim shall be made without the consent of Claimant (which consent may be granted or withheld by Claimant in its sole and absolute discretion).

5.4.5 In the event it is finally determined (pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 5.4) or as mutually agreed upon by the Parties that the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify Claimant as provided herein, the Indemnifying Party shall also be liable for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, disbursements and court costs) incurred by Claimant in connection with the enforcement of this Section 5.4. Such reimbursement to be made with thirty (30) days of after final determination or mutual agreement, as applicable, that Claimant is entitled to indemnification hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party fails to so pay all or any sums when due hereunder, the amount of such sums payable by the Indemnifying Party to Claimant shall bear interest from the date such amount is payable hereunder at a rate equal to the prevailing prime interest rate as published in The Wall Street Journal plus two percent (2%) per annum (but in no event to exceed the highest permissible legal rate of interest), until Claimant receives payment in full (including accrued and unpaid interest thereon).

5.4.6 WPPI shall not be required to indemnify the CWI Indemnified Parties for Claims and/or Losses, and CWI shall not be required to indemnify the WPPI Indemnified Parties for Claims and/or Losses, in each case arising under this Section 5.4 unless and until the aggregate amount of such Losses for which the CWI Indemnified Parties or WPPI Indemnified Parties, as applicable, are otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.4 exceeds Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) (the “Threshold Amount”). After the Threshold Amount is exceeded, the CWI Indemnified Parties or WPPI Indemnified Parties, as applicable, shall be entitled to indemnity for the aggregate Losses incurred measured by the first dollar of Losses. In no event shall the aggregate amount of Claims and/or Losses required to be paid by WPPI or CWI, respectively, with respect to any breach of the representations and warranties of the Parties pursuant to this Section 4.1 or Section 4.2, respectively, exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000).

5.4.7 The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Section 5.4 shall be net of (a) any third party insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contributions or other similar payment recoverable from any third party with respect thereto, and (b) any net Tax benefit realizable by the Company and/or any CWI Indemnified Party. CWI and the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to make any and all insurance claims relating to any claim for which it is seeking indemnification under this Section 5.4.

5.4.8 In no event shall WPPI or CWI be liable for any consequential damages, loss of revenue, income or profits; loss in value of assets, securities or tax attributes; punitive, special or indirect damages or damages based on a multiple, including a multiple of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization); provided, however, in the event that WPPI or CWI, as the case may be, must pay any consequential, special or punitive damages to a third Person as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, WPPI or CWI, as the case may be, shall be liable to the other Party for such damages.

5.4.9 The right to indemnification under this Section 5.4, subject to all of the terms, conditions and limitations hereof, shall constitute the sole and exclusive right and remedy available to any Party hereto for any breach of this Agreement after the Closing (other than any failure of any of the Parties to perform any obligation or covenant contained in Section 9.15 and Section 9.16 hereof) and none of the Parties hereto shall initiate or maintain any Action against any other Party hereto which is directly or indirectly related to any breach of this Agreement or any related agreements. The foregoing shall not limit the rights of a Party to seek or obtain injunctive relief based upon the actual breach of any obligation or covenant arising after the Closing contained in Section 9.15 or Section 9.16 and/or to enforce each of the covenants and obligations contained in Section 9.15 or Section 9.16, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

5.4.10 To the maximum extent permitted by Law, it is the intention of the Parties to treat any indemnity payment made under this Agreement as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

5.4.11 This Section 5.4 shall survive Closing.

5.5 Limitation on Liability. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither Party shall have any liability with respect to any breach of any

representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder unless written notice of a Claim, or of discovery of any facts or circumstances that Claimant reasonably believe may result in a Claim hereunder, is given to the other Party prior to the expiration of the Survival Period, if any, in which case such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall survive as to such claim until such claim has been finally resolved, without the requirement of commencing any Action in order to extend such Survival Period or preserve such Claim.

5.6 Post-Closing Liquidity. For a period of nine (9) months from the Closing (the “Initial Period”), WPPI covenants, agrees and guarantees to CWI and the CWI Indemnified Parties that WPPI shall maintain “liquidity” of at least Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000) (the “Initial Liquidity Level”), subject to reduction for Reduction Payments (as defined below), for purposes of securing WPPI’s post-closing indemnification obligations under this Agreement. To the extent the CWI Indemnified Parties make any Claims against WPPI for indemnification under this Agreement and WPPI pays any portion of any Losses subject of any Claims, the required “liquidity” level shall be automatically and permanently reduced at the time of the payment of the Loss(es) by the amount of Losses paid by WPPI (the aggregate amount of all such Losses paid being referred to as the “Reduction Payments”). From and after Initial Period and until the first anniversary of the Closing Date (or such later date if an Indemnification Notice and/or Litigation Notice is timely submitted prior the expiration of such twelve (12) month period and such Claim remains unresolved), WPPI covenants, agrees and guarantees to CWI and the CWI Indemnified Parties that WPPI shall maintain “liquidity” of at least One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) plus the stated amount of any Claims made by the CWI Indemnified Parties during the Initial Period that remain unresolved as of the expiration of the Initial Period not to exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) minus the Reduction Payments made during the Initial Period (the “Reduced Liquidity Level”). Following the Initial Period, the Reduced Liquidity Level shall be automatically and permanently reduced from time to time by any Reduction Payments. Following the first anniversary of the Closing, the Reduced Liquidity Level (as adjusted as provided in the preceding sentence) may be reduced by WPPI to zero; provided, that if there are any outstanding unresolved Claims that were properly claimed under Section 5.4.3 prior to the first anniversary of the Closing, WPPI shall be required to continue to maintain “liquidity” equal to the amount of the unresolved Claims but not in excess of an amount equal to the Reduced Liquidity Level minus the Reduction Payments made paid after the Initial Period. After the first anniversary of the Closing, the required “liquidity” level shall continue to be reduced from time to time by any further Reduction Payments made until such time (a) the “liquidity” level is reduced to zero through Reduction Payments or (b) there are no unresolved Claims outstanding between the CWI Indemnified Parties and WPPI. WPPI shall provide evidence of the required liquidity level within five (5) calendar days after receiving written request from the CWI Members. For purposes of this Agreement, “liquidity” can be maintained by WPPI having cash on hand (free and clear of all liens and encumbrances), cash equivalents (free and clear of all liens and encumbrances) and/or posting an irrevocable letter of credit that does not expire until after the date in which the “liquidity” is no longer required to be maintained as provided in this Section 5.6, provided that, for avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Four Million Dollar ($4,000,000) shortfall reserve established by WPPI pursuant to the terms of the Amended LLC Agreement shall not be used in calculating liquidity for purposes of this Agreement. WPPI’s obligations under this Section 5.6 shall survive Closing as set forth hereinabove.

WPPI’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as though such representation and warranties (subject to the exceptions set forth on the Schedules) were made on and as of the Closing Date (except those representations and warranties which refer to facts existing at a specific date, which shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date), and CWI shall have received a certificate to that effect signed by WPPI; provided, however, that WPPI’s representations and warranties shall not be deemed inaccurate or breached if such certificate provides an exception, change or update to the Schedules to such representation and warranty (a “R&W Update”) and such R&W Update was, in each case, as a result of an event, act or occurrence occurring after the Effective Date and (a) (i) is due to transactions or actions that are expressly permitted by, or approved by CWI in accordance with, this Agreement and (ii) did not result from a breach of any of WPPI’s obligations hereunder; or (b) is due to changes in fact after the Effective Date beyond WPPI’s reasonable control; or (c) is due to operating the Hotel in the Ordinary Course and did not result from a breach of any of WPPI’s obligations hereunder; or (d) reflects the existence of a new Contract or an amendment to an existing Contract that was entered into in the Ordinary Course or the termination or expiration of a Contract that occurred in the Ordinary Course provided that, in each case, not resulting in a breach of any of WPPI’s obligations hereunder (including, without limitation, WPPI’s covenants set forth in Section 3.4). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any representation and warranty of WPPI is no longer accurate as of the Closing (subject to the limitations of the immediately preceding sentence) and WPPI does not cure or otherwise remedy such change or inaccuracy, then if such R&W Update would, individually or in the aggregate, (A) result in actual Losses (and not consequential damages) to CWI such that the actual cost or expense to cure or address such inaccuracy (as opposed to the effect on the value of the Property) after the Closing is equal to or less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), CWI shall be obligated to proceed to Closing and WPPI shall have no liability or obligation to indemnify CWI and/or the Company with respect thereto; or (B) result in Losses to CWI such that the actual cost or expense (and not consequential damages) to cure or address such inaccuracy (as opposed to the effect on the value of the Property) after the Closing is in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), CWI shall have the option to either (x) terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to WPPI on or prior to the Closing (provided that CWI shall make such election to terminate, if at all, promptly after receipt of WPPI’s certificate delivered under Section 6.1.8 below, but in any event prior to 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) on the Closing Date) or (y) elect to proceed to Closing and in such event, WPPI shall have no liability or obligation to indemnify CWI and/or the Company with respect thereto. In the event CWI elects to terminate this Agreement as permitted in the foregoing sentence, CWI shall receive a return of the Good Faith Deposit, and neither WPPI nor CWI shall have any

further obligations under this Agreement or recourse against each other (except for obligations which expressly survive termination).

6.1.2 No Defaults. WPPI shall not have materially defaulted in the performance of its covenants or obligations hereunder.

6.1.3 Title Policy. The Title Company (or another title company reasonably acceptable to CWI if the Title Company refuses to do so) shall be unconditionally obligated and prepared, subject only to payment by WPPI of the applicable premium for the base Title Policy and payment by CWI of the applicable premium for the Title Endorsements, to issue the Title Policy in the form of the Pro Forma Title Policy.

6.1.4 Permits. All Permits required for the operation of the Hotel shall have been issued to the Company or the Hotel Manager, provided WPPI and Hotel Manager shall cooperate in their transfer or reissuance to CWI or Company. As to any liquor license, such liquor license shall remain in full force and effect as of the Closing Date; provided, however, if the liquor license fails to remain in full force and effect as the result of the loss, revocation, termination or suspension of any such liquor license caused by CWI, due to CWI not meeting the qualifications for a liquor license or due to any change of ownership application filed by CWI, then the condition to closing that the liquor license remain in full force and effect as of the Closing Date shall be deemed waived by CWI (and in no event shall any such failure by CWI be deemed a default by WPPI hereunder).

6.1.5 Certificate of Occupancy. WPPI shall deliver a permanent certificate of occupancy issued by the City of Bellevue Development Services Department (Building Division).

6.1.6 Delivery of Documents. At or prior to Closing, WPPI shall have delivered to the Escrow Agent or the Escrow Agent shall have otherwise received, the following:

6.2.1 No Breaches. Each of CWI’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects;

6.2.2 No Defaults. CWI shall not have materially defaulted in the performance of any of its covenants or obligations hereunder.

6.2.5 CWI Capital Contribution. CWI shall have made its CWI Contribution.

6.2.6 WPPI’s obligation to close shall not occur until each of the deliveries and actions described in this Section 6.2 has occurred.

6.3 Rule 3-05 Audit. WPPI acknowledges, agrees and covenants to cooperate with CWI to permit CWI to obtain any information needed from WPPI to enable CWI to file any necessary Tax Returns following the Closing Date. Following the Closing Date, WPPI agrees to deliver to McGladrey LLP or another national accounting firm selected by CWI (the “Audit Firm”), all of the audit request materials listed on Exhibit “K” attached hereto to the extent available and in WPPI’s possession or control related to the Hotel and/or WPPI; provided, however, WPPI acknowledges and agrees to use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to also provide such additional requested information in WPPI’s possession or control which is deemed relevant and reasonably necessary (as reasonably determined by the Audit Firm) to enable the Audit Firm to prepare financial statements of WPPI and complete an audit in compliance with (a) Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission which audit will commence immediately after the Closing or within twelve (12) months after the Closing and which is required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission; (b) any other rule issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission and applicable to CWI; and (c) any registration statement, report or disclosure statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by, or on behalf of, CWI. WPPI has reviewed the audit request materials listed in Exhibit “K” and agrees that it can provide all materials to the Audit Firm in the event of an audit. WPPI shall engage (at CWI’s sole cost and expense) the Audit Firm to commence any and all such required audits. CWI shall be responsible for any additional fees and expenses billed by the Hotel Manager in connection with the audit contemplated by this Section 6.3. In connection with the foregoing post-Closing audit(s), and in furtherance of WPPI’s obligations to assist CWI pursuant to this Section 6.3, WPPI covenants and agrees to execute and deliver to the Audit Firm, the audit representation letters, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit “L” (the “Audit Representation Letter”), provided that the form of such Audit Representation Letter may be modified as required to account for any issues identified during the audit. For avoidance of doubt, CWI acknowledges and agrees that no audit contemplated under this Section 6.3 will commence prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Audit Firm may deliver an updated audit materials request list to WPPI no earlier than fifteen (15) days prior to the Target Closing Date and WPPI shall provide to the Audit Firm such additional audit material to the extent available and in WPPI’s possession or control to the extent available and in WPPI’s possession or control related to the Hotel and/or WPPI. WPPI’s obligations under this Section 6.3 shall survive the Closing.

6.4 Completion Reserve. To the extent any item on the Punch List is not completed (the “Uncompleted Punch List Items”) on or before the Closing Date, representatives of WPPI and CWI shall meet at Closing and mutually agree upon (each acting reasonably and in good faith) a reserve in the estimated amount to complete the Uncompleted Punch List Items (the “Completion Reserve”). The Completion Reserve shall be funded by WPPI in accordance with

the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement to be entered into and mutually agreed among WPPI, CWI and Escrow Agent. Thereafter, WPPI shall utilize the funds in the Completion Reserve for purposes of completing or causing WPPI’s construction manager to achieve Final Completion. WPPI agrees to diligently and in good faith pursue completion of the Uncompleted Punch List Items and Final Completion of the Hotel as soon as reasonably possible and upon Final Completion, WPPI shall be entitled to receive all of the funds remaining in the Completion Reserve. In the event that WPPI fails to achieve Final Completion within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date (and such failure is not the result of any force majeure event beyond WPPI’s control), then, upon fifteen (15) days prior written notice to WPPI, the Company shall have the right (but not the obligation) to exercise self-help remedies and if the Company so elects such self-help remedy, CWI or the Company shall be entitled to take all reasonable action necessary (determined by CWI in its good faith judgment) to cause Final Completion and draw down on the Completion Reserve to pay for the reasonable third-party out-of-pocket costs thereof incurred by CWI and/or the Company in achieving Final Completion so long as CWI provides reasonable evidence to WPPI of such expenditures prior to drawing down on the Completion Reserve; provided, however, that in the event that CWI does not elect to exercise the aforementioned self-help remedies, WPPI shall nevertheless remain obligated to complete or cause WPPI’s construction manager to complete the Uncompleted Punch List Items that were not completed prior to Closing and cause the Final Completion of the Hotel. In addition, from and after the Closing and the Final Completion of the Hotel, WPPI covenants and agrees to cooperate (in good faith) with the Company in connection with the Company’s enforcement of any warranty, guaranty and/or indemnity claims against Xxxxx, the Architect and/or any subcontractor (including assigning any claims WPPI may have against Xxxxx, the Architect and/or any subcontractor to the extent such claims are assignable). The provisions of this Section 6.4 shall survive Closing.

6.5 Pool Improvements. CWI acknowledges and agrees that the Design and Engineering Documents contemplated the construction of a swimming pool and related improvements (collectively, the “Pool Improvements”). The Parties have agreed that the construction of the Pool Improvements will not be completed by WPPI prior to or after the Closing. At Closing, WPPI will provide CWI a credit in the amount of Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) for not completing the Pool Improvements. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, CWI acknowledges and agrees that WPPI not completing the Pool Improvements is an exception to WPPI’s representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement. CWI further acknowledges and agrees that WPPI shall have no further obligations or Liabilities with respect to the Pool Improvements. For avoidance of doubt, Pool Improvements shall expressly exclude any work required in connection with the existing swimming pool areas (i.e., protective rails, etc.) as necessary for WPPI to obtain the permanent certificate of occupancy issued by the City of Bellevue, Development Service Department (Building Division).

6.6 Assignment of Warranties. Without limiting the terms of Section 2.1.14, WPPI shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an assignment of the Warranties for the benefit of CWI (to the extent the same are assignable) including any required consents; provided, however, that the failure to obtain such assignment of Warranties or consent to assignment despite Seller’s commercially reasonable efforts shall not be a condition to CWI’s obligation to

close or a default by WPPI hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, WPPI covenants and agrees that any Warranties which cannot be assigned pursuant to this Section 6.6 shall remain with WPPI and, in WPPI’s capacity as a member of the Company, shall be enforced, at the expense of the Company, by WPPI pursuant to their terms for the benefit of the Company (and all benefits and amounts recovered thereunder shall be assigned and granted to the Company). WPPI’s obligations hereunder shall survive the Closing.

ARTICLE 7.

CONSENT TO JURISDICTION

To the fullest extent permitted by law, CWI and WPPI hereby irrevocably consent and agree, for the benefit of each Party, that any Action against it with respect to its obligations, Liabilities or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be brought in any federal or state court sitting in the County of King, State of Washington (the “Designated Courts”), and hereby irrevocably accepts and submits to the jurisdiction of the Designated Courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts of each such Designated Court) with respect to any such Action. Each Party hereto also hereby irrevocably consents and agrees, for the benefit of each other Party, that any legal Action against it shall brought in any Designated Court, and hereby irrevocably accepts and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such Designated Court with respect to any such Action. Each Party hereto waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid Actions brought in any such Designated Court and hereby further waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such Designated Court that any such Action brought therein has been brought in any inconvenient forum.

ARTICLE 8.

CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

8.1 Casualty and Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, Material Damage occurs or an action with regard to a Material Taking is commenced with respect to the Hotel, then:

(a) if, prior to Closing, an action for condemnation or similar taking is commenced with respect to any portion of the Hotel but the same would not, if consummated, constitute a Material Taking, then CWI shall remain obligated to close hereunder without a reduction to the CWI Contribution but all condemnation proceeds and other awards (other than proceeds and awards not awarded to WPPI or their respective Affiliates) shall be paid to the Company; or if, prior to Closing, an action for condemnation or similar taking is commenced with respect to any portion of the Hotel and the same would, if consummated, constitute a Material Taking, then either Party, within five (5) business days of discovery by such Party of any such action regarding a Material Taking, shall notify the other Party in writing of such action and thereafter may elect to terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice to the other Party, in which event, except for the provisions in this Agreement that expressly survive the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be void and of no further force and effect, and neither Party shall have any liability to the other by reason hereof and the Good Faith Deposit shall be immediately returned to CWI; provided, however, if CWI and WPPI

elect not to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(a), then the transactions contemplated hereby shall be closed without a reduction in the CWI Contribution but all condemnation proceeds and other awards (other than proceeds and awards not awarded to WPPI or their respective Affiliates) shall be paid to the Company; provided, however, that to the extent any condemnation proceeds or awards exceed the decrease in value of the Property and the actual costs to repair the Property as a result of such Material Taking, such excess shall be promptly remitted to WPPI; or

(b) if, prior to Closing, any of the improvements on the Hotel are damaged or destroyed but such damage does not constitute Material Damage, then CWI shall remain obligated to close hereunder without a reduction in the CWI Contribution but WPPI shall have paid any deductible and any insurance proceeds and other awards (other than proceeds and awards not awarded to WPPI or their respective Affiliates), less any sums expended by WPPI prior to Closing to repair such damages (which sums shall be promptly remitted to WPPI), shall be paid to the Company; or

(c) if prior to the Closing, Material Damage occurs, then either Party, within five (5) business days of discovery of the events constituting Material Damage, shall notify the other Party in writing of such action and thereafter may elect to terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice to the other Party, in which event, except for the provisions in this Agreement that expressly survive the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be void and of no further force and effect, and neither Party shall have any liability to the other by reason hereof, except that the provisions in this Agreement that expressly survive the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement shall survive, and the Good Faith Deposit shall be immediately returned to CWI; and if neither Party elects to so terminate this Agreement pursuant to the above, then the transaction contemplated hereby shall be closed without a reduction in the CWI Contribution but WPPI shall have paid any deductible and any insurance proceeds and other awards (other than proceeds and awards not owned by WPPI or their Affiliates), less any sums expended by WPPI prior to Closing to repair such damages (which sums shall be promptly remitted to WPPI), shall be paid to the Company; provided, however, that to the extent any insurance proceeds or other awards exceed the decrease in value of the Property and the actual costs to repair the Property as a result of such Material Damage, such excess shall be promptly remitted to WPPI.

9.6 Waivers. No waiver of any provision, condition, requirement or breach of or under this Agreement will be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the waiving party.

No failure or delay by any Party hereto to exercise any right, power or remedy hereunder in any manner will operate as a waiver thereof or preclude or impair any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder.

9.7 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement is to be construed in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held by a court or an arbitral panel of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, then such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability, without affecting the remainder of this Agreement.

9.8 Construction. Each Party hereto acknowledges that it and its counsel have participated fully in the negotiation, review and revision of this Agreement. Accordingly, each provision of this Agreement will be construed according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any party, regardless of whether such provision was drafted by or at the request of a particular Party or such Party’s counsel.

9.11 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any right, interest nor obligation hereunder may be assigned by CWI or WPPI without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempt to make any such an assignment shall be null and void; provided, however, and without the consent of WPPI, CWI may transfer this Agreement to any Affiliate of CWI; provided, that CWI shall remain fully liable for CWI’s obligations under this Agreement.

9.12 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns.

If any lawsuit or arbitration or other Action arises in connection with the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, the prevailing party therein shall be entitled to receive from the other party the prevailing party’s reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection therewith, in preparation therefor and on appeal therefrom, which amounts shall be included in any judgment therein.

9.15 Exclusivity.

9.15.1 Subject to the last sentence of this Section 9.15.1, after the Effective Date, neither WPPI nor any of their respective Affiliates, members, partners, or agents (including, without limitation, any broker) shall offer, entertain, solicit, discuss or negotiate with respect to any inquiries or proposals relating to the possible direct or indirect acquisition, (or any other form of transaction having a similar effect), a recapitalization of the Hotel for purposes of avoiding the restrictions of this Section 9.15.1, or make any information about the Property or the Hotel available (for purpose of sale, refinance or recapitalization) to any Person other than CWI, its Affiliates, any of CWI’s prospective lenders and their respective designees, agents and/or authorized third parties. WPPI agrees to immediately direct Broker to cease the marketing of the Property. Such restrictions shall be in effect until the earlier of (a) the Closing, or (b) the termination of this Agreement by either Party pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof; and thereafter shall be null and void and of no further force or effect.

9.15.2 As of the Effective Date and for a period of eighteen (18) months following Closing, WPPI covenants and agrees for itself and its Affiliates that neither it nor any of its respective Affiliates shall own, develop, acquire or otherwise invest in, independently or with others, directly or indirectly, any full service luxury or full service upper upscale hotel projects within the geographic boundaries of the City of Bellevue, Washington; provided, however, and notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to the Hilton Garden Inn located in Bellevue, Washington, and the AC Hotel by Marriott located at 000 000xx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, each of which are currently under development. Such restrictions shall only be effective during the pendency of this Agreement and, thereafter, if a Closing has occurred pursuant to this Agreement. This Section 9.15.2 shall survive Closing.

9.16 Confidentiality. Each Party expressly covenants and agrees that neither such Party nor any of its Affiliates will disclose, divulge, furnish or make accessible to anyone any information relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. CWI agrees to keep all information (including the Due Diligence Materials) concerning the Property and Hotel which are provided to CWI by WPPI or which CWI otherwise obtains in the course of diligence, strictly confidential to at least the level of care it would treat its own confidential information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party and its Affiliates may use and disclose such information in the ordinary course of their business to accountants, legal counsel, advisors, employees, representatives and agents who have a legitimate need to know such information and to prospective investors and lenders in connection with future real estate projects and investments; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 9.16 will prohibit the disclosure of any such information (a) which is required to be disclosed by the Party or any such Affiliate in connection with any Action or under any applicable Law; (b) in connection with the enforcement

of any of the rights of the Party hereunder; (c) to the extent required by securities laws; (d) in connection with the defense by the Party of any claim asserted against it hereunder; or (e) that has come into the public domain other than as a result of the disclosure by such Party or its Affiliate; provided, however, that in the case of a disclosure contemplated by clause (a), to the extent reasonably practicable no disclosure shall be made until the Party shall give notice to the other Parties of the intention to disclose such information so that the other Parties may contest the need for disclosure, and the disclosing Party will cooperate (and will cause its Affiliates and their respective representatives to cooperate) with the other Parties in connection with any such Action, all such cooperation at the expense of the Company. This Section 9.16 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

9.17 Announcements. All press releases and all other publicity concerning the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be drafted and prepared by CWI, and WPPI agrees not to, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, deliver or publish any press releases or other publicity regarding the sale of the Property pursuant to this Agreement unless approved in writing by CWI. The Parties acknowledge and agree that CWI will issue a press release after the Closing, the form and content of which shall be subject to the prior written consent of WPPI (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, WPPI acknowledges and agrees that CWI’s press release shall be substantially similar to the form of those certain press releases previously issued by CWI or its Affiliates in connection with CWI’s or CWI’s Affiliates’ recent hotel acquisitions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall prohibit any disclosure by CWI required by law or regulation, including, without limitation, in any filings or disclosures made by CWI to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with applicable law. This Section 9.17 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

9.18 Post-Closing Access. In order to fulfill its obligations to third parties, complete the Punch List or for any other reason relevant to its business interests related to the Hotel, WPPI shall be entitled to post-Closing access to (i) all Books and Records of the Hotel relating to the periods prior to the Closing and (ii) to the Hotel and Property in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the Hotel. All such access shall be with prior written notice and shall not materially interfere with the operation of the Hotel.

1. Transferor is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations). Transferor is not a “disregarded entity” (as such term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations).

2. Transferor’s U.S. employer identification number is 00-0000000.

3. Transferor’s office address is:

1000 E. 80th Place

Suite 700 North

Merrillville, IN 46410

4. Transferor is not a disregarded entity as defined in Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii).

5. Transferor understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by the transferee (buyer) and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

Under penalties of perjury, the undersigned declares that he has examined this certification and to the best of his knowledge and belief it is true, correct and complete, and he further declares that he has the authority to sign this document on behalf of Transferor.

Executed as of the date first written above.
