5.2     Purchase
As-Is.

 

(a)     Except as
provided in Section 10.2, Buyer is relying, and will rely, solely upon its
own inspections, investigations and analyses of the Property and Hotel in
entering into this Agreement and is not relying in any way upon any
representations, statements, agreements, warranties, studies, reports,
descriptions, guidelines or other information or material furnished by Seller or
its representatives, whether oral or written, express or implied, of any nature
whatsoever regarding any such matters, including without limitation, any
marketing materials, and is purchasing the Property in an "as-is"
condition.

 

(b)     EXCEPT AS
EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.2 SELLER HEREBY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY
WARRANTY, GUARANTY OR REPRESENTATION, ORAL OR WRITTEN, PAST, PRESENT OR FUTURE,
OF, AS TO, OR CONCERNING THE NATURE AND CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE WATER, SOIL AND GEOLOGY, AND THE SUITABILITY THEREOF AND
OF THE PROPERTY FOR ANY AND ALL ACTIVITIES AND USES WHICH THE BUYER MAY ELECT TO
CONDUCT THEREON, AND THE EXISTENCE OF ANY ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS OR CONDITIONS
THEREON OR COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS, ZONING LAWS, LAND USE LAWS,
RULES, REGULATIONS, ORDERS OR REQUIREMENTS. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS
INSPECTED THE PROPERTY AND BUYER IS RELYING SOLELY ON ITS OWN INVESTIGATION OF
THE PROPERTY AND NOT ON ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED OR TO BE PROVIDED BY SELLER.
BUYER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE AGREEMENTS OF SELLER
HEREIN, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.2, SELLER
MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED OR ARISING BY OPERATION

OF THE PROPERTY.

11

 

(c)     Buyer,
for itself and its successors and assigns, hereby releases Seller, Seller’s
affiliates and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees and
agents of, from and against any and all claims, losses or damages arising from

(d)     Except as
provided in Section 10.2, Seller makes no warranties or representations to
Buyer, either express or implied, regarding the assignability or transferability
of the Assigned Contracts or Assigned Communications Site Lease
Agreements.

 

(e)     Buyer is
represented by very capable and experienced people and has had the opportunity
to review the Property prior to the Effective Date. Buyer will rely entirely
upon such review and the advice of Buyer's consultants in Buyer's determination
to purchase the Property. Buyer, by its execution of this Agreement,
acknowledges and agrees that a material inducement to Seller's decision to sell
the Property to Buyer at the Purchase Price provided in this Agreement was the
agreement of Buyer to conduct Buyer's own studies and purchase the Property in
an "as-is" condition, except as expressly provided in
Section 10.2.

 

(f)     
Except as
may be specifically provided herein, Seller shall have no obligation to correct
any conditions or alleged defects or deficiencies discovered by Buyer in the
course of Buyer's investigations or inspections with respect to the Property or
thereafter.

 

5.3     Non-Disclosure
of Confidential Information.

 

(a)     Any
information furnished by Seller or its agents to Buyer or Buyer's agents in
connection with the transaction contemplated hereby shall be governed by that
letter agreement dated October 1, 2004 between Bradford Holdings, Inc. and
Buyer (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). The failure of Buyer to comply with its
obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement or this Section 5.3 shall
constitute a material breach of this Agreement and, in such case, the Seller
shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement (and be paid the Deposit) and
pursue any remedy at law or equity against the Buyer, including injunctive
relief provided for in the Confidentiality Agreement.

 

(b)     Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or the Confidentiality
Agreement, nothing contained herein shall limit the right of the Buyer to report
any information relating to this transaction required to be reported to any
governmental entity, in connection with tax reporting information filed by the
Buyer with the governmental entity or as may be required by any other
governmental regulatory entity. Provided, however, Buyer agrees that in
connection with any and all such required reporting (i) Buyer
shall not, and shall cause its ultimate parent not to, disclose the name of any
principal or shareholder of Seller’s parent; (ii) Buyer
may disclose, and may cause its ultimate parent to, disclose the name of the
Seller in any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock
exchange if the identity of the Seller is required to be disclosed by applicable
regulations, but shall not disclose the name of the Seller in any press release
with respect to the transaction (but may identify the Seller in any press
release as a Holiday Inn Express franchisee); (iii) Buyer
shall not, and shall cause its ultimate parent not to, file a copy of this
Agreement with any governmental authority until the filing of its Form 10-Q
covering the period during which this Agreement is signed; and (iv) Buyer
shall not, and shall cause its ultimate parent not to, make a filing with any
governmental authority or issue any press release concerning the execution of
the Agreement until the fourth business day after execution by both parties of
this Agreement, unless Seller agrees otherwise. Seller shall have the right to
review and approve in advance any such filings to confirm compliance with this
Section 5.3.

5.4     Maintenance
of the Hotel. Seller
shall maintain the Hotel in substantially the same condition that Seller
maintained the Hotel before and as of the Effective Date, normal wear and tear
excepted, up to the Closing. Seller shall not enter into any new agreements with
respect to the Hotel (except for agreements and contracts entered in the normal
course of operating the Hotel and cancellable on thirty (30) days' notice),
without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. The failure of Buyer to deliver written notice
of approval or disapproval of any such proposed agreement within three (3)
Business Days of delivery of such agreement(s) to Buyer shall be deemed to be
Buyer's approval thereof.

 

5.5     Indemnity.

 

(a)     Buyer
hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller, its affiliates and their
respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents
(collectively, “Seller Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all
claims, actions, causes of action, costs, expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs), damages and liabilities (collectively, “Losses”)

shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees for claims

respect to such claims shall exceed $50,000 in the aggregate (the “Threshold”),
following which the total amount of such Losses in excess of the Threshold shall
be recoverable by the Buyer Indemnitees in accordance with the terms hereof,
subject to the provisions of this Section 5.5 (d). In no event shall the total
obligation of Seller under the indemnification provided in Section 5.5(b)(iii)
exceed an amount equal to (x) $500,000 less (y) the amount of any
indemnification paid to Buyer Indemnitees by Seller pursuant to Section
5.5(b)(iii) of this Agreement, less (z) the amount of any indemnification paid
to Buyer Indemnitees (as defined in each such agreement) by affiliates of the
Seller pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreements between Buyer and each of
McIntosh Inn of Oxford Valley, Inc., McIntosh Inn of Malvern, Inc. and McIntosh
Inn of Wilmington, Inc. Unless the person seeking indemnity pursuant to Section
5.5 (a)(iii) or Section 5.5(b)(iii) provided the Seller or Buyer, as
applicable, with proper written notice of a request for indemnification and
describing the claim or event for which indemnification is sought pursuant to
such section during the sixth month period after the Closing Date, the person
seeking indemnification pursuant to those sections shall not be entitled to
obtain any indemnification pursuant thereto.

the sale of the Personal Property to Buyer pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement. The covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing of this
Agreement.

 

5.8     Existing

(a)     Pre-Closing
and Post-Closing Receivables. All
Pre-Closing Receivables shall belong to Seller and nothing contained in this
Agreement is intended to transfer any right, title or interest in such
Pre-Closing Receivables to Buyer. Following the Closing, Seller shall have the
right to collect all Pre-Closing Receivables. During the Wind-Up Period, Buyer
shall cooperate with Seller so that Seller can collect its Pre-Closing
Receivables. Any Pre-Closing Receivables which are not collected by Seller
during such Wind-Up Period shall be collected by Seller upon the expiration of
the Wind-Up Period and Buyer shall execute any documents necessary to assist

specifically identified such payment as one which should be applied to
Post-Closing Receivables. Except in the event of a bona fide dispute between
Seller and a customer which dispute has been documented in a writing, or tenants
who are in arrears for more than one (1) month, any collections received from
parties obligated on both Pre-Closing Receivables and Post-Closing Receivables
shall be applied first to the longest outstanding unpaid invoices of the payor.
In the case of monies received from parties obligated on both Pre-Closing
Receivables and Post-Closing Receivables and where the amount attributable to
Pre-Closing Receivables is the subject of a bona fide dispute with customer or
in the case of arrearages from tenants, is in arrears in excess of one month
(the "Disputed Items"), Buyer will not be obligated to pay the first monies it
receives to Seller, but Seller shall directly deal with the applicable third
party in connection with the collection of the Disputed Items.

 

(c)     Seller's
Right to Examine and Photocopy Books and Records. After
the Closing, Seller and its agents and employees shall have the right to examine

Space.
Following the Closing, Buyer shall provide to Seller, during the Wind-Up Period,
and from time to time thereafter as Seller may require for an audit or other
accounting procedure, a desk at the Hotel, mutually acceptable to Seller and

of its Pre-Closing Receivables, its payroll and accounts payable obligations and
any other auditing procedures deemed necessary by Seller.

to the Buyer.

Rehired Employees who accept employment with the Buyer.

to Employees. Seller
and Buyer shall prepare a joint statement to be distributed to employees at the
Hotel upon the Closing, which statement shall include (i) a notice that the
Hotel is, as of the Closing Time, owned by Buyer and (ii) such other information
deemed reasonably necessary by both Seller and Buyer.

 

(d)     Further
Assurances by Parties.
Following the Closing, both Parties shall execute and deliver any further
instruments and take all actions that may be necessary or appropriate to confirm
that all of the rights and privileges contemplated herein have been transferred
to Buyer.

 

(e)     Post-Closing
Cooperation Obligations. Buyer
covenants and agrees that it will, subsequent to the Closing, reasonably
cooperate with Seller in order for Seller to complete its Post-Closing Business
Arrangements under this Article 6 and shall provide reasonable assistance to
Seller, including, without limitation, support, secretarial and clerical
assistance and access to all records at the Hotel to facilitate the preparation
of Seller's tax records and accounting records and to assist Seller with any
claims and/or to comply with any governmental reporting
requirements.

to Vendors. In
addition to the statement to be prepared by Seller and Buyer pursuant to other
provisions of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall also prepare a statement
which shall be delivered, at or soon after the closing, to vendors, consultants

provisions of Article 8 of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall meet, during
the sixty (60) day period following the Closing to resolve the dispute and make
such adjustments as may be necessary ("Post-Closing Adjustment Period"). In the
event the Parties are unable to resolve any dispute by the end of the
Post-Closing Adjustment Period, the Parties shall submit the dispute for
resolution by an independent accounting firm mutually agreeable to the Seller
and Buyer . The dispute shall be resolved in accordance with accounting industry
practices. The fee of such accounting firm shall be borne by the Parties
equally.

 

6.4     Accounts
Payable. Seller
shall be responsible for payment of all accounts payable accruing prior to the
Closing Time.

 

6.5     Performance
of Assigned Contracts and Assigned Communications Site Lease

after the Closing Time pursuant to all of the Assigned Contracts and Assigned
Communications Site Lease Agreements.

 

6.6     Seller’s
Financial Books and Records. For
six (6) months after the Closing Date, Seller shall give Buyer access, upon
reasonable advance notice, to its financial books and records covering the

three-year period. Buyer shall reimburse Seller for its out-of-pocket expenses
in connection with providing such access or Buyer’s preparing such financial
statements.

 

6.7     Survival

the United States Bankruptcy Code, or should Buyer institute any proceedings
under the United States Bankruptcy Act or under any amendment thereof which may
hereafter be enacted or under any other act relating to the subject of
bankruptcy wherein Buyer seeks to be adjudicated a bankrupt, or to be discharged
of its debts, or to effect a plan of liquidation, composition or reorganization,
or should any involuntary proceeding be filed against Buyer under any such
bankruptcy laws and Buyer consents thereto or acquiesces therein by pleading or
default, or if such involuntary proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60)
days, then this Agreement shall not become an asset in any of such proceedings,
and in any such event it shall be lawful for Seller to declare this Agreement
terminated, and Buyer shall have no further claim on the Property hereunder or
otherwise and Buyer shall have no right to the return of the Deposit or interest
thereon.

      Matters.

License”) to replace the Seller’s Franchise License for the Property, Seller
shall consent to such application to the extent required by the Franchise
License. Buyer shall provide all information requested by the Licensor in
connection with such application for the New License and shall use its best
efforts to diligently and promptly obtain approval from Licensor of such
application for the New License at the Property. It is a condition precedent to
the Closing that such application for the New License be approved by Licensor by
the Scheduled Closing Date and that any guarantees in connection with the
Seller’s Franchise License by any affiliate of the Seller be terminated in
writing by Licensor. If the New License or guaranty termination is not obtained
by the Scheduled Closing Date, either Buyer or Seller may give written notice to
the other party to extend the Scheduled Closing Date by thirty (30) days. If the
New License or guaranty termination is not obtained by the end of such thirty
(30) day period, either Buyer or Seller may terminate this Agreement by written
notice to the other party and the Buyer shall be entitled to receive the Deposit
plus interest from the Escrow Agent. Buyer specifically agrees that any
conditions to approval of the New License imposed by Licensor, including without
limitation, upgrade requirements, any property improvement plans, term of the
new license agreement and fees required to be paid, shall be Buyer’s sole
responsibility and shall not in any way affect Buyer’s obligation to complete
the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Seller shall be responsible for all costs and fees imposed by Licensor on the
Seller to terminate the Seller’s Franchise License.

As-Is.

(a)    Except as
provided in Section 10.2, Buyer is relying, and will rely, solely upon its
own inspections, investigations and analyses of the Property and Hotel in
entering into this Agreement and is not relying in any way upon any
representations, statements, agreements, warranties, studies, reports,
descriptions, guidelines or other information or material furnished by Seller or
its representatives, whether oral or written, express or implied, of any nature
whatsoever regarding any such matters, including without limitation, any
marketing materials, and is purchasing the Property in an "as-is"
condition.

(b)    EXCEPT AS
EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.2 SELLER HEREBY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY
WARRANTY, GUARANTY OR REPRESENTATION, ORAL OR WRITTEN, PAST, PRESENT OR FUTURE,
OF, AS TO, OR CONCERNING THE NATURE AND CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE WATER, SOIL AND GEOLOGY, AND THE SUITABILITY THEREOF AND
OF THE PROPERTY FOR ANY AND ALL ACTIVITIES AND USES WHICH THE BUYER MAY ELECT TO
CONDUCT THEREON, AND THE EXISTENCE OF ANY ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS OR CONDITIONS
THEREON OR COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS, ZONING LAWS, LAND USE LAWS,
RULES, REGULATIONS, ORDERS OR REQUIREMENTS. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS
INSPECTED THE PROPERTY AND BUYER IS RELYING SOLELY ON ITS OWN INVESTIGATION OF
THE PROPERTY AND NOT ON ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED OR TO BE PROVIDED BY SELLER.
BUYER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE AGREEMENTS OF SELLER
HEREIN, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.2, SELLER
MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED OR ARISING BY OPERATION
OF LAW, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTY OF CONDITION, HABITABILITY,
MERCHANTABILITY, TENANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IN RESPECT
OF THE PROPERTY.

(c)    Buyer,

(e)    Buyer is
represented by very capable and experienced people and has had the opportunity
to review the Property prior to the Effective Date. Buyer will rely entirely
upon such review and the advice of Buyer's consultants in Buyer's determination
to purchase the Property. Buyer, by its execution of this Agreement,
acknowledges and agrees that a material inducement to Seller's decision to sell
the Property to Buyer at the Purchase Price provided in this Agreement was the
agreement of Buyer to conduct Buyer's own studies and purchase the Property in
an "as-is" condition, except as expressly provided in
Section 10.2.

(f)    Except as
may be specifically provided herein, Seller shall have no obligation to correct

thereafter.

5.3    Non-Disclosure
of Confidential Information.

(a)    Any
information furnished by Seller or its agents to Buyer or Buyer's agents in
connection with the transaction contemplated hereby shall be governed by that
letter agreement dated October 1, 2004 between Bradford Holdings, Inc. and
Buyer (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). The failure of Buyer to comply with its
obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement or this Section 5.3 shall
constitute a material breach of this Agreement and, in such case, the Seller
shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement (and be paid the Deposit) and
pursue any remedy at law or equity against the Buyer, including injunctive
relief provided for in the Confidentiality Agreement.

(b)    Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or the Confidentiality
Agreement, nothing contained herein shall limit the right of the Buyer to report
any information relating to this transaction required to be reported to any
governmental entity, in connection with tax reporting information filed by the
Buyer with the governmental entity or as may be required by any other
governmental regulatory entity. Provided, however, Buyer agrees that in
connection with any and all such required reporting (i) Buyer
shall not, and shall cause its ultimate parent not to, disclose the name of any
principal or shareholder of Seller’s parent; (ii) Buyer
may disclose, and may cause its ultimate parent to, disclose the name of the
Seller in any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock
exchange if the identity of the Seller is required to be disclosed by applicable
regulations, but shall not disclose the name of the Seller in any press release
with respect to the transaction (but may identify the Seller in any press
release as a Holiday Inn Express franchisee); (iii) Buyer
shall not, and shall cause its ultimate parent not to, file a copy of this
Agreement with any governmental authority until the filing of its Form 10-Q
covering the period during which this Agreement is signed; and (iv) Buyer
shall not, and shall cause its ultimate parent not to, make a filing with any
governmental authority or issue any press release concerning the execution of
the Agreement until the fourth business day after execution by both parties of
this Agreement, unless Seller agrees otherwise. Seller shall have the right to
review and approve in advance any such filings to confirm compliance with this
Section 5.3.

5.4    Maintenance
of the Hotel. Seller
shall maintain the Hotel in substantially the same condition that Seller
maintained the Hotel before and as of the Effective Date, normal wear and tear
excepted, up to the Closing. Seller shall not enter into any new agreements with
respect to the Hotel (except for agreements and contracts entered in the normal
course of operating the Hotel and cancellable on thirty (30) days' notice),
without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. The failure of Buyer to deliver written notice
of approval or disapproval of any such proposed agreement within three (3)
Business Days of delivery of such agreement(s) to Buyer shall be deemed to be
Buyer's approval thereof.

(a)    Buyer
hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller, its affiliates and their

shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees for claims

following which the total amount of such Losses in excess of the Threshold shall
be recoverable by the Buyer Indemnitees in accordance with the terms hereof,
subject to the provisions of this Section 5.5 (d). In no event shall the total
obligation of Seller under the indemnification provided in Section 5.5(b)(iii)
exceed an amount equal to (x) $500,000 less (y) the amount of any
indemnification paid to Buyer Indemnitees by Seller pursuant to Section
5.5(b)(iii) of this Agreement, less (z) the amount of any indemnification paid

the sale of the Personal Property to Buyer pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement. The covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing of this
Agreement.

5.8    Existing

(a)    Pre-Closing
and Post-Closing Receivables. All
Pre-Closing Receivables shall belong to Seller and nothing contained in this
Agreement is intended to transfer any right, title or interest in such
Pre-Closing Receivables to Buyer. Following the Closing, Seller shall have the
right to collect all Pre-Closing Receivables. During the Wind-Up Period, Buyer
shall cooperate with Seller so that Seller can collect its Pre-Closing
Receivables. Any Pre-Closing Receivables which are not collected by Seller
during such Wind-Up Period shall be collected by Seller upon the expiration of

specifically identified such payment as one which should be applied to
Post-Closing Receivables. Except in the event of a bona fide dispute between
Seller and a customer which dispute has been documented in a writing, or tenants
who are in arrears for more than one (1) month, any collections received from
parties obligated on both Pre-Closing Receivables and Post-Closing Receivables
shall be applied first to the longest outstanding unpaid invoices of the payor.
In the case of monies received from parties obligated on both Pre-Closing
Receivables and Post-Closing Receivables and where the amount attributable to
Pre-Closing Receivables is the subject of a bona fide dispute with customer or
in the case of arrearages from tenants, is in arrears in excess of one month
(the "Disputed Items"), Buyer will not be obligated to pay the first monies it
receives to Seller, but Seller shall directly deal with the applicable third
party in connection with the collection of the Disputed Items.

 

14

(c)    Seller's
Right to Examine and Photocopy Books and Records. After

Space.
Following the Closing, Buyer shall provide to Seller, during the Wind-Up Period,
and from time to time thereafter as Seller may require for an audit or other
accounting procedure, a desk at the Hotel, mutually acceptable to Seller and
Buyer, for Seller and Seller's agents to use in connection with its collection
of its Pre-Closing Receivables, its payroll and accounts payable obligations and
any other auditing procedures deemed necessary by Seller. 

6.2    Seller's
Records. Seller

and Buyer shall prepare a joint statement to be distributed to employees at the
Hotel upon the Closing, which statement shall include (i) a notice that the
Hotel is, as of the Closing Time, owned by Buyer and (ii) such other information
deemed reasonably necessary by both Seller and Buyer.

(d)    Further
Assurances by Parties.
Following the Closing, both Parties shall execute and deliver any further
instruments and take all actions that may be necessary or appropriate to confirm
that all of the rights and privileges contemplated herein have been transferred
to Buyer.

(e)    Post-Closing
Cooperation Obligations. Buyer
covenants and agrees that it will, subsequent to the Closing, reasonably
cooperate with Seller in order for Seller to complete its Post-Closing Business
Arrangements under this Article 6 and shall provide reasonable assistance to
Seller, including, without limitation, support, secretarial and clerical
assistance and access to all records at the Hotel to facilitate the preparation
of Seller's tax records and accounting records and to assist Seller with any
claims and/or to comply with any governmental reporting
requirements.

(f)    Notices
to Vendors. In
addition to the statement to be prepared by Seller and Buyer pursuant to other
provisions of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall also prepare a statement

and any other parties deemed necessary by the parties to announce the transfer
of the Property to Buyer.

provisions of Article 8 of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall meet, during
the sixty (60) day period following the Closing to resolve the dispute and make
such adjustments as may be necessary ("Post-Closing Adjustment Period"). In the
event the Parties are unable to resolve any dispute by the end of the
Post-Closing Adjustment Period, the Parties shall submit the dispute for
resolution by an independent accounting firm mutually agreeable to the Seller
and Buyer . The dispute shall be resolved in accordance with accounting industry
practices. The fee of such accounting firm shall be borne by the Parties
equally.

6.4    Accounts
Payable. Seller
shall be responsible for payment of all accounts payable accruing prior to the
Closing Time.

6.5    Performance
of Assigned Contracts and Assigned Lease. Buyer

after the Closing Time pursuant to all of the Assigned Contracts and the
Assigned Lease.

Financial Books and Records. For
six (6) months after the Closing Date, Seller shall give Buyer access, upon
reasonable advance notice, to its financial books and records covering the
three (3) year period prior to the Closing Date in order for the Buyer to

representatives of Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date, and Buyer shall be
solely responsible thereafter for all items listed in such inventory and, where
the seals have been broken, for the contents thereof, and Buyer agrees to

or should any involuntary proceeding be filed against Buyer under any such
bankruptcy laws and Buyer consents thereto or acquiesces therein by pleading or
default, or if such involuntary proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60)
days, then this Agreement shall not become an asset in any of such proceedings,
and in any such event it shall be lawful for Seller to declare this Agreement
terminated, and Buyer shall have no further claim on the Property hereunder or
otherwise and Buyer shall have no right to the return of the Deposit or interest

acknowledges that the Hotel is subject to the Franchise License. Buyer shall
apply to the licensor under the Franchise License (“Licensor”) within five (5)

License”) to replace the Seller’s Franchise License for the Property, Seller
shall consent to such application to the extent required by the Franchise
License. Buyer shall provide all information requested by the Licensor in
connection with such application for the New License and shall use its best
efforts to diligently and promptly obtain approval from Licensor of such
application for the New License at the Property. It is a condition precedent to
the Closing that such application for the New License be approved by Licensor by
the Scheduled Closing Date and that any guarantees in connection with the
Seller’s Franchise License by any affiliate of the Seller be terminated in
writing by Licensor. If the New License or guaranty termination is not obtained
by the Scheduled Closing Date, either Buyer or Seller may give written notice to
the other party to extend the Scheduled Closing Date by thirty (30) days. If the
New License or guaranty termination is not obtained by the end of such thirty
(30) day period, either Buyer or Seller may terminate this Agreement by written
notice to the other party and the Buyer shall be entitled to receive the Deposit
plus interest from the Escrow Agent. Buyer specifically agrees that any
conditions to approval of the New License imposed by Licensor, including without
limitation, upgrade requirements, any property improvement plans, term of the
new license agreement and fees required to be paid, shall be Buyer’s sole
responsibility and shall not in any way affect Buyer’s obligation to complete
the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Seller shall be responsible for all costs and fees imposed by Licensor on the
Seller to terminate the Seller’s Franchise License.
