Section

(a)
Sale of the Affiliated Clubs.


 


(i)
The Parties intend that each affiliated club seller, as set forth in Exhibit 4.3(a) (an “Affiliated Club Seller”),
will sell substantially all of its tangible and intangible assets and personal property or sell all of its capital stock (each, a “Club
Transaction”) to a subsidiary of Rick’s (an “Affiliated Club Purchaser”) for the purchase price identified

(ii)
For clarity, (1) the Seller under this Agreement is an Affiliated Club Seller, (2) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement constitute

only Club Transaction which is not structured as an asset purchase.


 


(iii)
The aggregate purchase price to be paid by Rick’s and the Affiliated Club Purchasers to the Affiliated Club Sellers from the closing
of all the Club Transactions is $56,600,000, payable as follows: (1) $19,600,000 payable by cashier’s check, certified funds, or

evidenced by twenty-year secured promissory notes, bearing interest at 6% per annum, payable, in arrears, in two hundred forty (240)

(v)
The Related Transaction Parties desire to close all the Club Transactions on the same closing date, but recognize that such a coordinated
closing is unlikely due to various requirements, including liquor licensing, that are not entirely within such parties’ control.
Therefore, the Related Transaction Parties anticipate and intend to close at least six of the nine Club Transactions and the purchase
of substantially all of the assets of OG1, LLC, an Unaffiliated Club as referred to and defined in Section 9.15 hereof, on the
first such closing (the “First Closing”) and to close the remaining Club Transactions as soon as practicable thereafter.


 


(b)
Sale of the Real Property. At the First Closing, and pursuant to one or more definitive purchase and sale agreements, the appropriate
parties shall close on the purchase and sale of six parcels of real property from certain real estate sellers to RCI Holdings, Inc.,
a Texas corporation wholly owned by Ricks, all as identified and for the aggregate purchase prices set forth on Exhibit 4.3(b).
The real estate sellers will sell, transfer, convey and deliver by warranty deed (or such other legal conveyance document) the real estate
properties set forth beside the real estate sellers name on Exhibit 4.3(b), which warranty deeds will convey good and marketable
title to the real properties to RCI free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, subject only to liens created as part of the
purchase of the real property (the “Real Estate Transaction”).


 


(c)
Sale of Intellectual Property. At the First Closing, and pursuant to a definitive asset purchase agreement, the appropriate parties
shall close on the sale of substantially all of the assets of Club Licensing, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“Club
Licensing”), to a wholly owned subsidiary of Rick’s for a purchase price of $13,000,000. The assets of Club Licensing

the Affiliated Club Sellers (the “IP Transaction”).

INDEMNIFICATION


 


Section
11.1 Indemnification from the Seller Group. The Seller Group, jointly and severally, hereby agree to and will indemnify, defend (with
legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Purchaser), and hold the Purchaser Group and their affiliates, and the respective officers, directors,
employees, agents, legal counsel and successors and assigns of the foregoing (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”)
harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, debts, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, costs, expenses, penalties
or injury (including reasonable attorneys’, accountants’, other experts’ or advisors’ fees, and costs of any
suit related thereto), whether arising from a direct (or first party) claim or a third-party claim, (collectively, “Losses”)
actually suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees arising from: (a) any breach of any representation or warranty of the
Seller Group contained in this Agreement, or any schedule, exhibit, certificate, or other instrument furnished or to be furnished by
the Seller Group hereunder; (b) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Seller Group under this
Agreement; and (c) any Excluded Liability (including any liability of the Seller that becomes a liability of the Purchaser under any
bulk transfer law of any jurisdiction, under any common law doctrine of de facto merger or successor liability, or otherwise by operation
of law).


 


Section
11.2 Indemnification from the Purchaser Group. The Purchaser Group, jointly and severally, agree to and will indemnify, defend (with
legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the HWL) and hold the Seller Group and their affiliates, and the respective officers, directors,

harmless from and against any and all Losses actually suffered or incurred by any of Seller Indemnitees, arising from (a) any breach
of any representation or warranty of the Purchaser Group contained in this Agreement or any schedule, exhibit, certificate, or other
agreement or instrument furnished or to be furnished by the Purchaser Group hereunder; (b) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant
or agreement on the part of the Purchaser Group under this Agreement; or (c) any liability or obligation due to any third party by either

Section
11.3 Matters Involving Third Parties.


 


(a)
If any third party notifies any Party (an “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third-Party
Claim”) that may give rise to a claim for indemnification against any other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”)
under this Article XI, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify each Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; provided,
however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying any Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying
Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is thereby prejudiced.


 


(b)
Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory
to the Indemnified Party at any time within 15 days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third-Party Claim; provided,
however, that the Indemnifying Party must conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim actively and diligently thereafter in order
to preserve its rights in this regard; and provided further that the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole
cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third-Party Claim.


 


(c)
So long as the Indemnifying Party has assumed and is conducting the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 11.3(b)
above, (i) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the
Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld) unless the judgment or
proposed settlement involves only the payment of money damages by one or more of the Indemnifying Parties and does not impose an injunction
or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party and (ii) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment on
or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to
be unreasonably withheld).


 


(d)
In the event none of the Indemnifying Parties assumes and conducts the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section
11.3(b) above, (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement
with respect to, the Third-Party Claim in any manner it may reasonably deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with,
or obtain any consent from, any Indemnifying Party in connection therewith) and (ii) the Indemnifying Parties will remain responsible
for any Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third-Party
Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Article XI.

Section
11.4 Limitation of Indemnification.


 


(a)
Only with respect to Losses arising from a third-party claim(s), the aggregate amount of all Losses for which the Seller Group shall
be liable for under Section 11.1(a) shall not exceed $1,000,000 per claim (excluding the cost of attorney’s fees); provided,
the foregoing limitation shall not apply to Losses arising out of the breach of any Fundamental Representation (defined in Section
11.6), in the case of fraud, and/or in the case of direct (or first party) claim(s);


 


(b)
The aggregate amount of all Losses arising from third party claims for which the Seller Group shall be liable under Section 11.1
shall not exceed an amount equal to the Purchase Price plus the cost of attorney’s fees incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitees (including
the cost of attorney’s fees incurred by the Seller Group on behalf of the Purchaser Indemnitees) in connection with such Losses,
and the aggregate amount of all Losses arising from direct (or first party) claims for which the Seller Group shall be liable under Section
11.1 shall not exceed an amount equal to the Purchase Price plus the cost of attorney’s fees incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitees
in connection with such Losses (for clarity, any Losses arising from third party claims will not go towards the cap on direct (or first
party) claims and vice versa); provided, the foregoing limitation shall not apply in the case of fraud; and


 


(c)
Only with respect to Losses arising from a third-party claim(s), notwithstanding Sections 11.4(a) and (b), the total aggregate
amount of all Losses which HWL, Family Dog, and the Affiliated Club Sellers shall be liable for under the indemnification provisions
in all Definitive Agreements shall not exceed $22,000,000; provided, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply in the case
of fraud and/or in the case of direct (or first party) claim(s).


 


Section
11.5 Indemnification Threshold.


 


(a)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Article
XI until the aggregate Losses suffered by the Purchaser Indemnitees exceeds $25,000 (the “Indemnification Threshold”),
at which point the Seller Group will indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees dollar for dollar for any amounts as if there had been no Indemnification
Threshold.


 


(b)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Seller Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Article
XI until the aggregate Losses suffered by the Seller Indemnitees exceeds the Indemnification Threshold, at which point the Purchaser
Group will only be obligated to indemnify the Seller Indemnitees from and against further Losses.


 




    	Stock Purchase Agreement - Page 24



    	 



    

 


Section
11.6 Survival of Indemnification. The rights to indemnification under this Article XI, including rights to indemnification
arising from a breach of a “Fundamental Representation” (which, for purposes of this Agreement, is defined as any
representation or warranty set forth under Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.4, 5.5, 5.10, 5.11, 5.12,
5.14, 5.15, 6.1 or 6.2) or from an Excluded Liability or Assumed Liability, will survive the Closing for
a period ending thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for any claim brought or that could be
brought in connection with such Losses (the “SOL Date”); provided, however, that rights to indemnification
arising from a breach of a non-Fundamental Representation (i.e., any representation or warranty in this Agreement that is not
a Fundamental Representation) shall survive 24 months from the Closing Date (“Survival Date”). Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, no claim for indemnification may be made against a Party unless the party seeking indemnification has
given such party written notice of the relevant claim for Losses on or before (a) the Survival Date with respect to a claim arising from
a non-Fundamental Representation, and (b) the SOL Date, with respect any other claim for which the party seeking indemnification is entitled
to indemnification under this Article XI. Any such claim for which notice has been given prior to the expiration of the Survival
Date or the SOL Date, as the case may be, will not be barred hereunder.


 


Section
11.7 Indemnification Payments. In the event that the Purchaser Group is entitled to indemnification in accordance with this Article
XI, including the payment by the Purchaser Group of any Excluded Liabilities, such amounts shall be paid first by an offset from
the then-outstanding principal balance under the Club Notes (defined in Section 4.3(a)(iii)) and, if the aggregate amount of such
payments exceeds the then-outstanding principal balance under the Club Notes, directly from any member of the Seller Group. Indemnification
in accordance with this Article XI in respect of any Losses shall be limited to the amount of any Losses that remain after deducting
therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution, or other similar payment received by the party seeking indemnification
in respect of any such indemnification claim. If an indemnification payment is received by an indemnitee, and that indemnitee later receives
insurance proceeds or otherwise recovers from a third-party in respect of the related Losses, such indemnitee shall promptly pay to the
indemnitor, a sum equal to the lesser of (i) the actual amount of such insurance proceeds or other third-party recoveries and (ii) the
actual amount of the indemnification payment previously paid with respect to such Losses.


 


Section
11.8 Waiver of Certain Damages. In no event shall any party be entitled to recover or make a claim under this Article XI for
any amounts in respect of, and in no event shall Losses be deemed to include, (a) punitive damages (unless payable to a third party),
or (b) consequential, incidental, special, or indirect damages (unless payable to a third party); provided, the forgoing limitation
shall not apply in the case of fraud.


 


Section
11.9 Exclusive Remedy.


 


(a)
Except as set forth in Section 11.9(b) and for the Tax indemnification provided in Section 12.1, the Parties acknowledge
and agree that, from and after Closing, the foregoing indemnification provisions in Article XI shall be the exclusive remedy of
the Purchaser Indemnitees and the Seller Indemnitees with respect to this Agreement.


 


(b)
Notwithstanding anything in Section 11.9(a) to the contrary, nothing in Article XI shall (i) prohibit the Purchaser Group
or any of their affiliates from bringing a claim against any Person, including any of the Seller Group, alleging such Person committed
fraud in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) limit any remedy of the Purchaser Group or any of their
affiliates may have against such Person, and only such Person, but only in the event a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines
that such Person is liable for fraud.

Article
XII

Tax Matters


 


Section
12.1 Indemnification. The Seller Group shall indemnify the Acquired Corporations and the Purchaser Group and hold them harmless from
and against (a) all income Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of the Acquired Corporations for all taxable periods ending on or before
the Closing Date and the portion through the Closing Date for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date.


 


Section
12.2 Straddle Period. In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle
Period”), the amount of any income Taxes for the pre-Closing Tax period shall be determined based on an interim closing of
the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date.


 


Section
12.3 Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns. The Purchaser Group shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed
all income Tax returns for the Acquired Corporations that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. With respect to any such income
Tax returned filed for a Straddle Period, Buyer shall permit the Seller Group to review and comment on each such income Tax return prior
to filing and shall make such revisions to such income Tax returns as are reasonably requested by the Seller Group.


 


Section
12.4 Refunds and Tax Benefits. Any income Tax refunds that are received by Purchaser or either Acquired Corporation, and any amounts
credited against income Tax to which Purchaser or the Acquired Corporations become entitled, that relate to income Tax periods or portions
thereof ending on or before the Closing Date shall be for the account of the Seller Group, and the Purchaser Group shall pay over to
the Seller Group any such refunds or the amount of any such credit (net of any income Taxes of Purchaser or the Acquired Corporations
attributable to such refund or credit) within 15 days of receipt or entitlement thereto.


 


Section
12.5 Other.


 


(a)
All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, and other such taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other
fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement shall be borne 50% by the Seller Group and 50% by the Purchaser Group.


 


(b)
After the Closing, each Party shall promptly notify the other Parties of any pending or threatened audit or assessment, suit, proposed
adjustment, deficiency, dispute, or judicial proceeding or similar claim relating to taxes (a “Tax Claim”) with respect
to Losses for which another Party could be liable under this Agreement. The Seller Group shall have a right to control, at its own cost,
without affecting its or any other Person’s rights to indemnification under this Agreement, the defense of all Tax Claims relating
to the Business, the Assets, or the transferring employees for any tax period ending on or before the Closing Date; provided,
that the Seller Group shall not settle any Tax Claim relating to such period that will in any way affect the taxes in a tax period ending
after the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Purchaser (which may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).


 




    	Stock Purchase Agreement - Page 26



    	 



    

 


(c)
Any tax-sharing agreements or similar agreement with respect to or involving the Acquired Corporations shall be terminated as of the
Closing Date and, after the Closing Date, the Acquired Corporations shall not be bound thereby or any liability thereunder.


 


(d)
The Purchaser Group shall not, and shall not cause or permit the Acquired Corporations to, (i) amend any Tax return filed with respect
to any tax year ending on or before the Closing Date or with respect to any Straddle Period or (ii) make any Tax election that has retroactive
effect to any such year or any Straddle Period, in each case without the prior written consent of the Seller Group.

    	Stock Purchase Agreement - Page 29



    	 



    

 


(b)
by the Purchaser Group, on the one hand, or the Seller Group, on the other hand, if the First Closing shall not have occurred on or before
December 31, 2021 (the “Outside Date”), unless the failure of the Closing to take place on or before such date is
attributable to a breach by such Party or Parties’ of any of its or their obligations set forth in this Agreement;


 


(c)
by the Purchaser Group, on the one hand, or the Seller Group, on the other hand, if any of the conditions to such Parties’ obligations
to perform set forth in Articles VIII and IX of this Agreement, as applicable, becomes incapable of fulfillment; provided,
however, that a Party may not seek termination pursuant to this Section 12.14(c) if such condition is incapable of fulfillment
due to the failure of such Party or Parties’ to perform the agreements and covenants contained herein required to be performed
by such Party or Parties or its or their affiliate at or before the Closing; and


 


(d)
by the Purchaser Group, on the one hand, or the Seller Group, on the other hand, if the other shall have breached or failed to perform
any of its covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform would cause any of the conditions
to such Party’s obligations to perform set forth in Articles VIII and IX of this Agreement, as applicable, to not
then be satisfied; provided that such breach or failure to perform such covenant or agreement is not cured within ten (10) days
after written notice thereof from the non-breaching Party, or in the case where the date or period of time specified for performance
has lapsed, promptly following written notice thereof from the non-breaching Party.


 


Section
13.15 Notice of Termination. Any Party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.14 shall give written

of this Agreement or any amendments hereto.
