or Other Contracts that are and remain exercisable or otherwise for the benefit of Seller and Buyer after giving effect to the sale of the Purchased Assets, or (B) rights with respect to insurance coverages provided pursuant to the Lease Documents or

Interest”) shall be so retained by the Seller.
(e) Further Obligations Relating to Purchased Assets. To the extent that Seller's rights under any Lease Document or Other Contract constituting
a Purchased Asset, or any other Purchased Asset, may not be assigned to Buyer without the consent of another person or entity which has not been obtained, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment
would be void ab initio, voidable or constitute a breach thereof or be unlawful, and Seller and Seller Parent, at their expense, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any such required consent(s) as promptly as possible. If any such consent
shall not be obtained or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair Buyer's rights under the Purchased Asset in question so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights, Seller, to the maximum extent
permitted by law and the Purchased Asset, shall act after the Closing Date as Buyer's agent in order to obtain for it the benefits thereunder and shall cooperate, to the maximum extent permitted by law and the Purchased Asset, with Buyer in any other
reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Buyer. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2(e) to the contrary, Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived its rights under Section 12(a)(x) hereof unless and until

it agrees to hold such amount in trust for the benefit of Seller and promptly to deliver said amount to Seller; and (ii) if, with respect to any Unit, Seller shall receive any amount on account of a claim which has become, or may become, due and

cooperation and assistance from Seller (at Buyer's expense) from and after the Closing Date to the extent necessary for and during transition) all proceedings and negotiations with respect thereto, and the settlement thereof, including all judgments,
awards, damages, settlement payments or rent received as a result thereof. If and to the extent amounts are awarded to Buyer (as successor Lessor) in the Badger Mining Litigation and Buyer actually receives cash payments in respect thereof (the “Settlement Payments”), Buyer agrees to remit to Seller from the net amount remaining from such Settlement Payments (after Buyer has reimbursed itself or third parties for out-of-pocket expenses associated
with the Badger Mining Litigation and for recovery, repositioning, and interim storage of the applicable Units and remedying any defaulted maintenance/repair or other Lessee defaults with respect to the Units) up to a maximum of $250,000, in respect
of pre-Cut-off Date past due rent due to Seller under the applicable Lease Documents (the “Past Due Rent”). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Buyer shall not have any liability
to Seller or Seller Parent hereunder for taking any action (or omitting to take any action) in good faith following the Closing Date in connection with the Badger Mining Litigation and the applicable Units, including any action (or omission to act)

prior sentence and (B) the applicable Lessee is not responsible under the applicable Lease Documents. To the extent that Buyer pays for any amounts in respect of the maintenance or repair of any Unit subject to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the

(a) Indemnification by Buyer and Buyer Affiliate. Buyer and Buyer Affiliate, on a joint and several and on an after-tax
basis, will indemnify Seller, Seller Parent, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively “Seller Indemnified Parties”) and hold each of the Seller Indemnified Parties
harmless from any liability, loss, damage, judgment, award, penalty, fine, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the cost of enforcing any right to indemnification hereunder (“Claim”)
incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, such Seller Indemnified Party, which shall result or arise from:
30
(i) the incorrectness or breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer or Buyer Affiliate contained in this Agreement, the other Sale Documents or in any other
agreement, instrument, certificate or other document delivered by Buyer pursuant hereto;
(ii) a breach by Buyer or Buyer Affiliate of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, the other Sale Documents or any other agreement, instrument,
certificate or other document delivered by Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or
(iii) any Claims relating to the Purchased Assets and the ownership of the Purchased Assets which arise or are attributable to the period after the Closing Date (except to
the extent due to events or circumstances existing or arising on or prior to the Closing Date for which Buyer is entitled to indemnification under Section 31(b)).
Upon payment of such indemnity, Buyer and Buyer Affiliate shall be subrogated to the Seller Indemnified Parties’ rights against any third parties respecting the Claims. Anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, Buyer and Buyer Affiliate shall not be required to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties if and to the extent (i) a third party Claim otherwise indemnifiable hereunder is brought against any of the Seller Indemnified
Parties in respect of the Purchased Assets, (ii) the Seller Indemnified Parties that are subject to such third party Claim are entitled to indemnification in respect thereof under a Lease Document or Purchased Other Contract, and (iii) the Seller
Indemnified Parties are actually indemnified and paid in full for 100% of any liability, loss, damage, judgment, award, penalty, fine, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the cost of enforcing any right to indemnification (“Third Party Damages”) that the Seller Indemnified Parties incur or sustain in respect of such third party Claim.
(b) Indemnification by Seller and Seller Parent. Seller and Seller Parent, jointly and severally, on an after-tax basis, will indemnify Buyer,
Buyer Affiliate and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) and hold it harmless from any Claim incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon,
such Buyer Indemnified Party, which shall result or arise from:
(i) the incorrectness or breach of any representation or warranty of Seller or Seller Parent contained in this Agreement, the other
Sale Documents or in any other agreement, instrument, certificate or other document delivered by Seller or Seller Parent pursuant hereto;
(ii) a breach by Seller or Seller Parent of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, any other agreement,
instrument, certificate or other document delivered by Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
(iii) any Claims relating to (A) the Retained Interests and (B) the Purchased Assets and the ownership of the Purchased Assets which are attributable to the period prior to
the Closing Date, regardless of when arising or asserted; or
31
(iv) any third party Claims based upon, resulting from or arising out of the business, operations, properties, assets or obligations of Seller and Seller Parent or any of
its affiliates.
Upon payment of such indemnity, Seller and Seller Parent shall be subrogated to the Buyer Indemnified Parties’ rights against any third parties respecting the Claims. Anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, Seller and Seller Parent shall not be required to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties if and to the extent (i) a third party Claim otherwise indemnifiable hereunder is brought against any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties
in respect of the Purchased Assets, (ii) the Buyer Indemnified Parties that are subject to such third party Claim are entitled to indemnification in respect thereof under a Lease Document or Purchased Other Contract, and (iii) the Buyer Indemnified
Parties are actually indemnified and paid in full for 100% of any Third Party Damages that the Buyer Indemnified Parties incur or sustain in respect of such third party Claim.
(c) Indemnification Process. A party seeking indemnification pursuant to Sections 31(a) or (b) above (an “Indemnified Party”)
shall give prompt notice to the party from whom such indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any Claim, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, in respect
of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and will give the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, but no failure to give such notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any
liability hereunder (except to the extent the Indemnifying Party has suffered actual prejudice thereby). The Indemnifying Party may, at its expense, participate in or assume the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding involving a third party;
provided, however, that such defense is conducted with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall consult with each other regarding the
conduct of such defense provided that the Indemnifying Party may control such defense. The Indemnified Party shall have the right (but not the duty) to participate in the defense thereof, and to employ counsel, at its own expense (except that the
Indemnifying Party shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel to the extent the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party which is material to the Claim
unrelated to the indemnification obligation contained herein), separate from counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party in any such action. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party
if the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any claim involving a third party, all the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and
shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend at such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Neither party shall be liable under Sections
31(a) or 31(b) for any settlement effected without its consent (as contemplated above) in any claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed
or conditioned).
32
(d) The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party's right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived
by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such
representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party's waiver of any condition set forth in Section 12 hereof, as the case may be.
32. Assignment of Manufacturer Warranties.
(a) Seller hereby assigns and transfers to Buyer all warranty rights which Seller has from any manufacturer of Units with respect to the Units. Seller
agrees to take, at Buyer’s expense for Seller’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, such actions and assist Buyer in good faith and as Buyer may reasonably request to secure such rights for Buyer, and if Seller is unable to secure such
rights for Buyer, Seller shall, at Buyer’s expense for Seller’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, in its name, and at the direction of Buyer, pursue such warranty claims as reasonably requested by Buyer.
(b) For the avoidance of doubt, the assignment by Seller to Buyer of such manufacturer warranties pursuant to this Section 32 does not relinquish
Seller of any rights or remedies it may have against any manufacturer with respect to the warranties for Seller’s own damages relating to Seller’s ownership of the Units prior to the Closing Date subject to manufacturer warranties. Following the
date of this Agreement, neither Seller nor Buyer shall enter into any agreement with any manufacturer of any Units which will be binding on the rights of the other party, including without limitation any amendment to manufacturer warranties governing
the Units.
33. No Third-party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement is for the sole
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature
whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
34. Joinder. By executing this Agreement:
(a) Seller Parent hereby agrees that it shall be jointly and severally liable for all obligations of Seller arising under this Agreement and the other
Sale Documents; and
(b) Buyer Affiliate hereby agrees that it shall be jointly and severally liable for all obligations of Buyer arising under this Agreement and the other
Sale Documents.
35. Materiality. For all purposes of this Agreement, the terms “material” and “materially” means
that the applicable representation, event, condition, noncompliance, defect or other fact or circumstance to which such qualifier relates would, or would reasonably be expected to, have a financial consequence or cost, individually or in the
aggregate, in excess of: (i) $50,000 with respect to any inaccuracy in the rent, term and/or number and type of Units under any Lease Documents, but only until such time as a Lease Confirmation has been delivered to Buyer in respect of such Lease
Documents pursuant to Section 12(a)(xi) or Section 12(b); and (ii) $300,000, with respect to all other items (including any inaccuracy in rent, term and/or number and type of Units under any Lease Documents following the time at which
a Lease Confirmation has been delivered to Buyer in respect of such Lease Document pursuant to Section 12(a)(xi) or Section 12(b)).
33
