receipt of notice from Buyer. Further, if Sellers, in their commercially reasonable discretion, deem any objection made by Buyer not to be commercially reasonable, Sellers may, at their election, by notice specifying the offending objection(s) sent
to Buyer within five (5) days after their receipt of notice from Buyer, terminate this Contract in its entirety or with respect to such Hotel(s) (and the Property related thereto) as to which Buyers objection(s) relate; provided, however,
Buyer shall have the right to nullify Sellers termination by notice to Seller (given within two (2) business days following receipt of Sellers termination notice) waiving the objection(s) that gave rise to Sellers termination
election . If any Seller commits in writing to attempt to cure any such item, then that Seller shall be given until the Closing Date to cure any such defect. In the event any Seller shall fail to cure a defect which such Seller has committed in
writing to cure prior to Closing, any Seller elects not to attempt to cure a defect, or if a new title defect arises after the date of Buyers Title Commitment or Survey, as applicable, but prior to Closing, then Buyer may elect, in
Buyers sole and absolute discretion: (i) to waive such objection and proceed to Closing, or (ii) to terminate this Contract with respect to such Hotel(s) (and the Property related thereto) as to which the defect(s) relate and receive
a return of the Applicable Share of the Earnest Money Deposit as shown on Exhibit A and any interest thereon. The items shown on the Title Commitment which are not objected to by Buyer as set forth above (other than exceptions and title
defects arising after the title review period and other than those standard exceptions which

affidavit, gap indemnity or other documentation reasonably required by the Title Company for such omission) and all Leases showing on the Title Commitment are hereinafter referred to as the Permitted Exceptions. Buyer shall
not object to and the following shall be deemed included in the Permitted Exceptions: any liens for unpaid real estate taxes and water and sewer charges, in all cases not yet due and payable, subject to adjustment as provided in Article XII. In no

Property or any portion thereof (Seller Liens), each of which shall be paid in full by Seller and released at Closing.

the case of the Concord, NC and Columbia, SC Hotels) and in all other cases, pay-off or defease the Existing Loans. Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in Buyers efforts related to the Existing Loans. In the event that Buyer assumes any of the
Existing Loans, the parties will undertake all commercially reasonable efforts to release the Sellers and their principals and guarantors from liability on any such Existing Loans for periods from and after Closing, and to the extent Sellers and
their principals and guarantors are not so released, Buyer will indemnify Sellers and their principals and guarantors from all liability, cost and expense (including attorneys fees) related to the assumed loan or loans for periods from and
after Closing. Further, the parties recognize that the Existing Loans for the Concord, NC and Columbia SC, Hotels contain provisions that may prohibit the loan from being paid-off and released, which may mandate that Buyer assume such loan or loans.

Agreement, (b) is obligated to pay liquidated damages or other fees or penalties to the Franchisor of the terminated Existing Franchise Agreement and (c) either: (1) the obligation to pay liquidated damages, fees, or penalties
resulted from Buyer electing to pursue a New Franchise Agreement from a different Franchisor or electing not to seek any New Franchise Agreement at all; or (2) following the termination of the Existing Franchise Agreement, the sale of a
Hotel is not consummated other than due to a default of the Seller, then Buyer shall be responsible for such termination damages owed to Franchisor; provided, further,

(c) Indemnification Procedure for Claims of Third Parties. Indemnification, with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by
those not parties to this Contract (including governmental claims for penalties, fines and assessments), shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(i) The party seeking indemnification (the Indemnified Party) shall give prompt written notice to the party or
parties from which it is seeking indemnification (the Indemnifying Party) of any assertion of liability by a third party which might give rise to a claim for indemnification based on the foregoing provisions of this
Section 8.8, which notice shall state the nature and basis of the assertion and the amount thereof, to the extent known; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in giving notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party
of any obligation to indemnify unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such delay.

(ii) If in any action, suit or proceeding (a Legal Action) the relief sought is solely the payment of money damages, and if the Indemnifying Party specifically agrees in writing to indemnify
such Indemnified Party with respect thereto and demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of such Indemnified Party its financial ability to do so, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, commencing thirty (30) days after such notice, at
its option, to elect to settle, compromise or defend, pursuant to this paragraph, by its own counsel and at its own expense, any such Legal Action involving



23



---

such Indemnified Partys asserted liability. If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake to settle, compromise or defend any such Legal Action, such
settlement, compromise or defense shall be conducted in the sole discretion of such Indemnified Party, but such Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information concerning such settlement, compromise or defense as the
Indemnifying Party may reasonably request from time to time. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to settle, compromise or defend any such asserted liability, it shall notify such Indemnified Party in writing of its intention to do so within thirty
(30) days of notice from such Indemnified Party provided above.

(iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous
subsection of this Contract, until the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of the Legal Action, the defense shall be handled by the Indemnified Party. Furthermore, (x) if the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that
there are likely to be defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party; (y) if the Legal Action involves other than money damages and seeks injunctive or other equitable relief; or
(z) if a judgment against Buyer, as the Indemnified Party, in the Legal Action will, in the good faith opinion of Buyer, establish a custom or precedent which will be adverse to the best interest of the continuing business of the Hotel, the
Indemnified Party shall have the right to assume the defense of the Legal Action itself, in which case the defense shall be provided at the cost and expense of the Indemnified Party.

(iv) In any Legal Action initiated by a third party and defended by the Indemnified Party (w) the Indemnified Party shall have the
right to be represented by advisory counsel and accountants, at its own expense, (x) the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully informed as to the status of such Legal Action at all stages thereof, whether or not the
Indemnified Party is represented by its own counsel, (y) the Indemnifying Party shall make available to the Indemnified Party and its attorneys, accounts and other representatives, all books and records of Seller relating to such Legal Action
and (z) the parties shall render to each other such assistance as may be reasonably required in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Legal Action.

(v) In any Legal Action initiated by a third party and defended by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not make
settlement of any claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it shall not be deemed unreasonable to withhold consent to a settlement
involving injunctive or other equitable relief against Buyer or its respective assets, employees, Affiliates or business, or relief which Buyer reasonably believes could establish a custom or precedent which will be adverse to the best interests of
its continuing business.

8.9 Escrow Funds. To provide for the timely payment of any post-closing claims by Buyer against the
applicable Seller hereunder, at Closing, the total sum of One Million Two Hundred Eighty-Nine Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,289,000.00) (for all of the Hotels, the Escrow Funds) shall be withheld from the Purchase Price
payable to a Seller and shall be



24



---

deposited for a period of one (1) year in an escrow account with the Title Company pursuant to an escrow agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and
substance to Buyer and Sellers, to be negotiated during the Review Period (the Post-Closing Agreement), which escrow and Post-Closing Agreement shall be established and entered into at Closing and shall be a condition to
Buyers obligations under this Contract. The Post-Closing Agreement shall provide that the investment of the Escrow Funds shall be as directed by the Sellers, that the interest and income earned on the Escrowed Funds shall belong to and be
released to Sellers at least quarterly, and that all fees, charges, and costs of the Title Company as escrow agent shall be paid by Buyer. If no claims have been asserted by Buyer against any Seller, or all such claims have been satisfied, within
such one-year period, the Escrow Funds deposited by the Sellers shall be released to the Sellers. The Escrow Funds withheld from each Seller shall be equal to the amount of the Escrow Funds multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
Purchase Price for such Sellers Hotel and the denominator of which is the aggregate Purchase Price for all of the Hotels.

8.10
Liquor Licenses. The Manager or an Affiliate thereof approved by Buyer shall have or shall have obtained all liquor licenses and alcoholic beverage licenses or banquet licenses, as appropriate and necessary or desirable to operate any
restaurants, bars and lounges presently located within the Hotel (collectively, the Liquor Licenses) and, in the case of an Affiliate of the Manager, the Hotel has the right to use such Liquor License, (ii) if
permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Hotel is located, to the extent practicable the Manager shall execute and file any and all necessary forms, applications and other documents (and Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with the
Manager in filing such forms, applications and other documents) with the appropriate liquor and alcoholic beverage authorities prior to Closing so that the Liquor Licenses remain in full force and effect upon completion of Closing.

8.11 Somerset Ground Lease. Seller and Buyer acknowledge that the Seller of the Hotel located in Somerset, New Jersey has a leasehold interest in
the Land pursuant to that certain Ground Lease dated April 15, 1999 (the Somerset Lease) between Martin E. Dorf, Trustee (Ground Lessor) and Widewaters New Castle Development Company, LLC, and
a fee simple interest in the Improvements thereon. The Seller of the Somerset, NJ Hotel shall obtain and deliver to Buyer at Closing a consent from the Ground Lessor to the assignment of the Ground Lease to Buyer and an estoppel certificate from the

CLOSING AND CONVEYANCE

10.1 Closing. Unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Sellers, the Closing on the Property shall occur on a date selected by Buyer
that is not later than fifteen (15) Business Days after expiration of the Review Period, provided that all conditions to Closing by Buyer hereunder have been satisfied. Specifically, but not as a limitation, the Closing on a Property may be
extended beyond the 15-Business Day period until such time as any Existing Loan encumbering such Property is permitted to be assumed, pre-paid or defeased. Buyer will provide Sellers at least two (2) days prior written notice of the Closing
Date selected by Buyer. The date on which the Closing is to occur as provided in this Section 10.1, or such other date as may be agreed upon by Buyer and Seller, is referred to in this Contract as the Closing Date for
the Property. The Closing shall be held at 10:00 a.m. at the offices of the Title Company, or as otherwise determined by Buyer and Sellers. The parties contemplate that the Closing will occur in stages due to the delay anticipated in obtaining
approval for Buyers assumption of the Existing Loans for the Concord, NC and Columbia SC Hotels. It is contemplated that the Closing for the Hotels (and related Property) other than Concord, NC and Columbia SC will occur initially, and that
the Closing for the Concord, NC and Columbia SC Hotels (and related Property) will occur subsequently following receipt of the approval of Buyers assumption of the Existing Loans related to such Hotels. Sellers shall not be required to go to
Closing on any of the Hotels (or related Property) until such time as Buyer is prepared go to Closing on at least five (5) of the Hotels (and related Property). In the event that the Closing of at least five (5) of the Hotels (and
related Property) has not occurred by November 15, 2007, other than due to the fault of Seller, then Seller shall have the right to terminate this Contract without penalty with respect to each such Hotel for which the Closing has not yet
occurred and in such event, the Applicable Share of

the Earnest Money Deposit as shown on Exhibit A, and any interest thereon, shall be delivered to Buyer. Nothing in the foregoing shall be construed to

CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

13.1 Risk of Loss; Notice. Prior to Closing and the delivery of
possession of the Properties to Buyer in accordance with this Contract, all risk of loss to the Properties (whether by casualty, condemnation or otherwise) shall be borne by each applicable Seller. In the event that (a) any loss or damage to
any Hotel shall occur prior to the Closing Date as a result of fire or other casualty, or (b) any Seller receives notice that a governmental authority has initiated or threatened to initiate a condemnation proceeding affecting its Hotel, such
Seller shall give Buyer immediate written notice of such loss, damage or condemnation proceeding (which notice shall include a certification of (i) the amounts of insurance coverages in effect with respect to the loss or damage and (ii) if
known, the amount of the award to be received in such condemnation).

13.2 Buyers Termination Right. If, prior to Closing and
the delivery of possession of the Property to Buyer in accordance with this Contract, (a) any condemnation proceeding shall be pending against a substantial portion of any Hotel or (b) there is any substantial casualty loss or damage to
any Hotel, Buyer shall have the option to terminate this Contract with respect to such Hotel (and the Property related thereto), provided Buyer delivers written notice to the applicable Seller of its election within twenty (20) days after the
date such Seller has delivered Buyer written notice of any such loss, damage or condemnation as provided above, and in such event, the Applicable Share of the Earnest Money Deposit as shown on Exhibit A, and any interest thereon, shall be
delivered to Buyer and thereafter, except as expressly set forth herein, no party shall have any further obligation or liability to the other under this Contract with respect to such Hotel (and the Property related thereto). In the context of
condemnation, substantial shall mean condemnation of such portion of a Hotel (or access thereto) as could, in Buyers reasonable judgment, render use of the remainder impractical or unfeasible for the uses herein contemplated, and,
in the context of casualty loss or damage, substantial shall mean a loss or damage in excess of Two Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($200,000.00) in value.

13.3 Procedure for Closing. If Buyer shall not timely elect to terminate under Section 13.2 above, or if the loss, damage or condemnation is
not substantial, each applicable Seller agrees to pay to Buyer at the Closing all insurance proceeds or condemnation awards which such Seller has received as a result of the same, plus an amount equal to the insurance deductible, and assign to Buyer
all insurance proceeds and condemnation awards payable as a result of the same, in which event the Closing shall occur without Seller replacing or repairing such damage. In the case of damage or casualty, at Buyers election, Seller shall
repair and restore the Property to its condition immediately prior to such damage or casualty and shall assign to Buyer all excess insurance proceeds.

ARTICLE XIV

DEFAULT REMEDIES

14.1 Buyer Default. If Buyer defaults under this Contract after the Review Period, and such default continues for thirty (30) days following
written notice from Seller (provided no notice shall extend the time for Closing), then Sellers may elect, as Sellers sole and exclusive remedy, either (i) to terminate this Contract by written notice to Buyer delivered to Buyer at any
time prior to the completion of such cure, in which event the Earnest Money Deposit, including



33



---

any interest thereon, shall be paid to and retained by Sellers as Sellers sole and exclusive remedy hereunder, and as liquidated damages for
Buyers default or failure to close, and thereafter both Buyer and Sellers shall thereupon be released from all obligations with respect to this Contract, except as otherwise expressly provided herein; or (ii) to treat this Contract as
being in full force and effect by written notice to Buyer delivered to Buyer at any time prior to the completion of such cure, in which event the Sellers shall have the right to an action against the Buyer for specific performance.

14.2 Seller Default. If any Seller defaults under this Contract, and such default continues for thirty (30) days following written notice
from Buyer, Buyer may elect, as Buyers sole and exclusive remedy, either (i) to terminate this Contract by written notice to such Seller delivered to that Sellers at any time prior to the completion of such cure, in which event the
Earnest Money Deposit, including any interest thereon, shall be returned to the Buyer, and thereafter both the Buyer and Sellers shall thereupon be released from all obligations with respect to this Contract, except as otherwise expressly provided
herein; or (ii) to treat this Contract as being in full force and effect by written notice to Sellers delivered to Sellers at any time prior to the completion of such cure, in which event the Buyer shall have the right to an action against the
defaulting Seller for specific performance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the default relates to less than all of the Hotels (and the Property related thereto), Buyers right to declare this Contract terminated shall relate
to only such Hotels (and the Property related thereto) as to which the default relates, the Applicable Share of the Earnest Money Deposit as shown on Exhibit A shall be returned, and this Contract shall otherwise remain in full force and
effect.

ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS

To be provided by Seller and approved by Buyer during the Review Period

The Hilton Garden Inn in Warwick, Rhode Island was constructed on a Brownfields site overseen by the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management
(RIDEM). The owners environmental consultant in this matter, Fuss & ONeill, conducted testing and generated a Remedial Action Work Plan (RAWP) which was approved by RIDEM in
October 2003. The RAWP called for five main action steps:



| | 1. | Identify and remove all underground storage tanks;
| | -- | --------------------------------------------------



| | 2. | Identify and close all underground injection control structures;
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| | 3. | Encapsulate all contaminated soils with either asphalt or clean fill;
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 4. | Install a Liquid Boot vapor barrier beneath the Hotel; and
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------



| | 5. | Construct, install and operate a groundwater treatment and monitoring well system.
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To date, the owner has completed steps 1 through 4. The Owner has delayed in completing the final step to allow any soil contaminants to deteriorate with time. At the current time, the owner has engaged its
environmental consultant to reinstitute a groundwater monitoring program to evaluate the extent of the contamination. This data will qualify the current state of the issue and the required remediation. The owner expects to complete the
first round of that testing in late August 2007.

Documents related to the foregoing will be provided to Buyer during the Review Period.

WHEREAS, the Deposit shall be delivered to Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Contract and this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

accordance with the provisions, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent hereby acknowledges receipt of the Deposit. Escrow Agent shall invest the Deposit as directed by Buyer, provided that the Deposit shall

stating that Buyer has elected to terminate the Contract pursuant to Section 3.1.



---

B. If at any time after the expiration of the Review Period, Buyer claims entitlement to all or any
portion of the Deposit, Buyer shall give written notice to Escrow Agent stating that Seller has defaulted in the performance of its obligations under the Contract beyond the applicable grace period, if any, or that Buyer is otherwise entitled to the
return of the Deposit or applicable portion thereof and shall direct Escrow Agent to return the Deposit or applicable portion thereof to Buyer (the Buyers Notice). Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of
Buyers Notice to Seller. Seller shall have three (3) business days after receipt of the copy of Buyers Notice to deliver written notice to Escrow Agent and Buyer objecting to the release of the Deposit or applicable portion thereof
to Buyer (Sellers Objection Notice). If Escrow Agent does not receive a timely Sellers Objection Notice, Escrow Agent shall release the Deposit or applicable portion thereof to Buyer. If Escrow Agent does
receive a timely Sellers Objection Notice, Escrow Agent shall release the Deposit or applicable portion thereof only upon receipt of, and in accordance with, written instructions signed by Seller and Buyer, or the final order of a court of
competent jurisdiction.

C. If, at any time after the expiration of the Review Period, Seller claims entitlement to the Deposit or
applicable portion thereof, Seller shall give written notice to Escrow Agent stating that Buyer has defaulted in the performance of its obligations under the Contract, and shall direct Escrow Agent to release the Deposit or applicable portion
thereof to Seller (the Sellers Notice). Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of Sellers Notice to Buyer. Buyer shall have three (3) business days after receipt of the copy of Sellers Notice to

Objection Notice, Escrow Agent shall release the Deposit or applicable portion thereof to Seller. If Escrow Agent does receive a timely Sellers Objection Notice, Escrow Agent shall release the Deposit or applicable portion thereof only upon
receipt of, and in accordance with, written instructions signed by Buyer and Seller, or the final order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

4. In the performance of its duties hereunder, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any document, instrument or signature purporting to be genuine and purporting to be signed by and of the Parties or their successors unless Escrow
Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary. Escrow Agent may assume that any person purporting to give any notice or instructions in accordance with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so.

5. A. Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or any action taken or omitted to be taken hereunder, except in the case of Escrow
Agents willful, bad faith misconduct or negligence, nor shall Escrow Agent be liable for the conduct or misconduct of any employee, agent or attorney thereof. Escrow Agent shall be entitled to consult with counsel of its choosing and shall not
be liable for any action suffered or omitted in accordance with the advice of such counsel.

notice of the same is delivered to Escrow Agent in writing, signed by the proper parties to Escrow Agents satisfaction and, in the case of modification, unless such modification shall be approved by Escrow Agent in writing.

6. A. Escrow Agent and any successor escrow agent, as the case may be, may resign his or its duties and be discharged from all obligations hereunder at
any time upon giving five (5) days prior written notice to each of the Parties hereto. The Parties hereto will thereupon jointly designate a successor escrow agent hereunder within said five (5) day period to whom the Deposit shall
be delivered. In default of such a joint designation of a successor escrow agent, Escrow Agent shall retain the Deposit as custodian thereof until otherwise directed by the Parties hereto, jointly, or until the Deposit is released in accordance with
clause (B) below, in each case, without liability or responsibility.

B. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
(i) Escrow Agent, on notice to the Parties hereto, may take such other steps as the Escrow Agent may elect in order to terminate its duties as Escrow Agent hereunder, including, but not limited to, the deposit of the Deposit with a court of
competent jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Virginia and the commencement of an action of interpleaders, and (ii) in the event of litigation between any of the Parties with respect to the Deposit, Escrow Agent may deposit the Deposit with the

POST-CLOSING AGREEMENT

THIS POST-CLOSING AGREEMENT (this Agreement) is
executed effective as of  (the Effective Date), by and among
 (Seller),
 (Buyer), and LAND AMERICA  AMERICAN TITLE
COMPANY (Escrow Agent).

R E C I T A L S

WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.9 of that certain Purchase Contract dated as of
 between Seller and Buyer (as amended, the Contract), as
assigned to Buyer pursuant to that certain Assignment of Contract dated of even date herewith, Buyer and Seller have requested that Escrow Agent hold in escrow the Escrow Funds (as defined in the Contract) in the amount of $1,289,000.00 in
accordance with the provisions, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Escrow Funds are being
delivered to Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Contract and this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual
covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used but not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Contract.

2. Appointment of Escrow Agent. Seller and Buyer
hereby appoint Escrow Agent to serve as escrow agent hereunder, and Escrow Agent agrees to act as escrow agent hereunder in accordance with the provisions, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent hereby
acknowledges receipt of the Escrow Funds. Escrow Agent shall invest the Escrow Funds as directed by Seller, provided such investments are reasonably acceptable to Buyer, and interest and income earned thereon shall belong to and be released to
Seller at least quarterly.

3. Escrow Funds. Subject to the rights and obligations to transfer, deliver or otherwise dispose of the
Escrow Funds, Escrow Agent shall keep the Escrow Funds in Escrow Agents possession pursuant to this Agreement for a period of one (1) year from and after the Closing Date (the Escrow Term) to provide for timely payment of
claims made after Closing by Buyer for indemnification, reimbursement, damages or other amounts payable by Seller or for the performance of any of Sellers obligations (each, a Claim) pursuant to the terms of the Contract or this
Agreement, including without limitation all indemnification obligations of Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 8.8 of the Contract and all other post-closing obligations of Seller under the Contract, all of which obligations shall survive
Closing under the Contract and delivery of the Deed.



---

4. Claims. Upon the determination by Buyer of the amount for which a Claim will be made, Buyer
shall send notice of such Claim (stating the amount claimed) to the Escrow Agent and Seller. If Seller does not give written notice to the Escrow Agent and Buyer of its intent to dispute the Claim or the amount claimed within five (5) business
days of the date Seller receives, pursuant to Section 8 below, Buyers notice of Claim, Escrow Agent shall immediately pay to Buyer from the Escrow Funds the amount specified in Buyers notice. If Seller disputes the Claim within the
five (5) business day period and Buyer and Seller are unable to settle the dispute, Buyer and Seller shall petition a court of competent jurisdiction for a resolution of the dispute. Seller and Buyer shall each pay their respective costs
incurred in any such court proceedings. If Buyer and Seller fail to bring such petition within thirty (30) days after the notice of dispute of claim is received, Escrow Agent may, but is not required, to bring such a petition. In any such
action, all parties hereto agree to waive any right to a trial by jury. After settlement or final determination of any dispute relating to a Claim, the Escrow Agent shall immediately pay to Buyer from the Escrow Funds the amount, if any, determined
to be payable to Buyer. Payment of any Escrow Funds to Buyer shall not discharge Sellers obligations under the Contract unless and until all of Buyers Claims are paid, discharged and satisfied in full. Seller shall be and remain liable
to Buyer for, and shall pay to Buyer the full amount of, all such Claims notwithstanding that the Escrow Funds may be insufficient to pay the same in full, and Seller shall immediately pay to Buyer the amount of any deficiency to satisfy in full the
amount of each Claim. Unless otherwise provided herein, if (i) Buyer has not sent any notice of a Claim during the Escrow Term or (ii) (x) all Claims of Buyer have been fully paid or otherwise settled and resolved during the Escrow
Term and (y) a court of competent jurisdiction has resolved any disputes brought before it by Buyer and Seller (or Escrow Agent on its own) that have not been settled and resolved by Buyer and Seller and all orders of such court have been
complied with, the amount of Escrow Funds remaining with Escrow Agent at the expiration of the Escrow Term, together with any interest or income accrued thereon and not previously distributed to Seller, shall (subject to the terms of this Agreement)
be promptly returned to Seller by Escrow Agent; provided, however, the return of any Escrow Funds not shall terminate or relieve Seller of its unsatisfied post-closing obligations, if any, to Buyer under the Contract.

5. Reliance by Escrow Agent. In the performance of its duties hereunder, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any document, instrument or
signature purporting to be genuine and purporting to be signed by and of the parties hereto or their successors unless Escrow Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary. Escrow Agent may assume that any person purporting to give any notice or
instructions in accordance with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so.

6. Liabilities of Escrow Agent.

A. Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or any action taken or omitted to be taken hereunder, except in the case of
Escrow Agents willful, bad faith misconduct or negligence. Escrow Agent shall be entitled to consult with counsel of its choosing and shall not be liable for any action suffered or omitted in accordance with the advice of such counsel.

B. In addition to the indemnities provided below, Escrow Agent shall not be liable for, and each of the
parties hereto jointly and severally hereby indemnify and agree to save harmless and reimburse Escrow Agent from and against all loss, cost, liability, damage and expense, including outside counsel fees in connection with its acceptance of, or the
performance of its duties and obligations under, this Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim arising hereunder unless the same are caused by the willful, bad faith misconduct or negligence of Escrow Agent.

C. Escrow Agent shall not be bound or in any way affected by any notice of any modification or cancellation of this Agreement, or of any
fact or circumstance affecting or alleged to affect rights or liabilities hereunder other than as is herein set forth, or affecting or alleged to affect the rights and liabilities of any other person, unless notice of the same is delivered to Escrow
