On the Closing Date, Assignee shall amend and restate the Venture Agreement to provide, among other things, that the ACC Member and Assignee are the sole members of the Venture.

(b) Earnest Money. Assignee agrees to deposit Two Million Eight Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,800,000.00) as earnest money (together with the interest earned thereon, the “Earnest Money”) with Heritage Title Company of Austin, Inc., Attention: Amy Fisher (“Escrow Agent”), within two (2) business days after the Effective Date, receipt of which shall be acknowledged by Escrow Agent. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Earnest Money shall be non-refundable. The Earnest Money shall be applied as a credit to the Assignment Payment at Closing. In the event of a termination of this Agreement, the Earnest Money shall be delivered to the party hereto entitled to same pursuant to the terms hereof on or before the fifth (5^th) business day following receipt by Escrow Agent and the non-terminating party of written notice of such termination from the terminating party, unless the other party hereto notifies Escrow Agent that it disputes the right of the other party to receive the Earnest Money prior to the end of the fourth (4^th) business day following receipt of termination; provided, however, that if the Earnest Money is to be paid to Assignor, Escrow Agent shall, without any further authorization or instruction from Assignor or any other party, pay $100.00 of the Earnest Money to Assignee as independent consideration for this Agreement. In the event of such a dispute, Escrow Agent may interplead the Earnest Money into a court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which the Earnest Money has been deposited. All attorneys’ fees and costs and Escrow Agent’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with such interpleader shall be assessed against the party that is not awarded the Earnest Money, or if the Earnest Money is distributed in part to both parties, then in the inverse proportion of such distribution.

(c) Assignor’s Remedies. (i) If Assignee fails to make the Assignment Payment to Assignor when required to do so hereunder, breaches the covenants in Section 5(b) to the extent described in Section 5(b)(ii) hereof, or materially breaches its obligations under Section 6(c) hereof, then Assignor as its sole and exclusive remedy therefor, may elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Assignee and Escrow Agent stating that such failure or breach has occurred, and in such event, subject to the dispute mechanism in Section 1(b), the Earnest Money shall be paid over to Assignor as liquidated damages and this Agreement shall terminate, and (ii) if Assignee otherwise defaults with respect to any other material covenant or obligation under this Agreement, and such default remains uncured for ten (10) business days after written notice from Assignor, then Assignor, as its sole and exclusive remedy therefor, may elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Assignee and Escrow Agent stating that such default has occurred, and in such event, the Earnest Money shall be returned to Assignee and this Agreement shall terminate. Assignor waives all remedies for Assignee’s defaults under this Agreement, except those specifically provided for in this Section 1(c). Assignor and Assignee acknowledge that Assignor’s damages would be difficult or impossible to ascertain in the event of any failure or breach by Assignee which is described in clause (i) above, and that the liquidated damages provided for in this Section 1(c) are a reasonable estimate of Assignor’s damages. Assignor and Assignee acknowledge that the amount of the liquidated damages has been set taking into account various factors, including the potential for change in value of the LLC Interests. The remedies provided in this Section 1(c) are exclusive and Assignor expressly waives all other remedies, claims and causes of action (including any right to obtain lost profits or actual, consequential, special or any other damages from Assignee or its affiliates) for Assignee’s failure in performance or default.

(d) Assignee’s Remedies. (i) If Assignor fails to transfer the LLC Interests to Assignee when required to do so hereunder or materially breaches its obligations under

Section 6(b) hereof, then Assignee, as its sole and exclusive remedy therefor may either (x) elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Assignor and Escrow Agent stating that such failure has occurred, and in such event, subject to the dispute mechanism in Section 1(b), the Earnest Money shall be returned to Assignee and this Agreement shall terminate, or (y) enforce specific performance of Assignor’s obligation, provided that as a condition precedent to Assignee exercising any right to bring an action for specific performance as the result of such failure, Assignee must commence such action within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such failure, and Assignee agrees that its failure timely to commence such an action for specific performance within such thirty (30) day period shall be deemed a waiver by it of its right to commence such an action , and (ii) if Assignor otherwise defaults with respect to any other material covenant or obligation under this Agreement, and such default remains uncured for ten (10) business days after written notice from Assignee, then Assignee, as its sole and exclusive remedy therefor, may elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Assignor and Escrow Agent stating that such default has occurred, and in such event, the Earnest Money shall be returned to Assignee and this Agreement shall terminate.. The remedies provided in this Section 1(d) are exclusive, and Assignee expressly waives all other remedies, claims and causes of action (including any right to obtain lost profits or actual, consequential, special or any other damages from Assignor or its affiliates) for Assignor’s failure in performance or default.

The provisions of this Section 4 shall survive the Closing Date and the Closing.

5. Covenants and Other Matters.

(a) Loan Consents. Assignee’s obligation to proceed to the Closing is contingent on Assignee, at Assignee’s sole cost and expense, obtaining the consent of the holder or servicer for the senior loan on each of the Properties (each, a “Lender”), in each case not subject to any conditions, restrictions or payments other than as set forth in the current documentation for such loans and otherwise in the form reasonably acceptable to Assignee (collectively, the “Loan Consents”). Assignee, at Assignee’s sole cost and expense, shall promptly request and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Loan Consents as soon as practicable following the Effective Date. Assignee shall keep Assignor reasonably informed as to the status and timing of obtaining the Loan Consents and shall provide prior written notice to Assignor of information and materials that Assignee intends to provide to any Lender that are outside the scope of materials regularly or otherwise required to be provided to such Lender related to the Properties, the Venture or the Subsidiaries pursuant to the loan documentation that is applicable to each of the Properties. Provided that this Agreement has not otherwise been terminated prior to the Outside Closing Date (as defined below), if the Loan Consents are not obtained prior to the Outside Closing Date, the Earnest Money shall be promptly returned to Assignee, and the parties shall thereafter have no further obligation to each other under this Agreement except for such obligations as are expressly intended to survive termination of this Agreement.

(b) Sale of the Properties.

(i) During the pendency of this Agreement, except for the Stadium Suites property located in Columbia, South Carolina and more particularly described on Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Stadium Suites Property”), Assignee and Assignor each agrees that it shall not, nor shall it directly or indirectly cause the Venture, or any Subsidiary to, solicit offers for the sale of the Properties, or any direct or indirect interest in any of them, or market the Properties for sale, or any direct or indirect interest in any of them.

(ii) Without limiting the foregoing, it shall constitute a breach of Assignee’s obligations which is sufficient to entitle Assignor to be paid the Earnest Money as liquidated damages if Assignee during the pendency of this Agreement (x) engages in material, affirmative, and ongoing activities to solicit offers for the sale of any of the Properties, or any direct or indirect interest in any of them (other than the Stadium Suites Property), (y) engages a broker to market, sell or solicit offers for sale of the same, or (z) enters into a written agreement to sell any of the Properties, or any direct or indirect interest in any of them (other than the Stadium Suites Property).

(c) Adjustment to Assignment Payment for Capital Funding. If during the pendency of this Agreement, Assignor elects to make any capital contributions to the Venture for

any purpose whatsoever, including without limitation, capital expenses or payments under any loan or loans for any of the properties owned indirectly by the Venture (but expressly excluding capital contributions that are used specifically to effect a cure of a Material Adverse Change described in Section 6(d)(v) below), and such capital contribution is approved in writing by Assignee, then the Assignment Payment will be increased by the amount of such capital actually contributed by Assignor to the Venture.

Assignee shall promptly give written notice to Assignor if Assignee learns of any Property Condition Event which could prevent the

condition precedent in this subsection (v) from being satisfied. If any such notice is given, Assignor may, but shall not be obligated, to postpone the Closing Date for up to 60 days by written notice to Assignee, to allow the Venture to cure or remedy same to the extent directed by the Assignor, in which event Assignee will cooperate as reasonably requested by Assignor, at the sole cost of the Venture, to implement Assignor’s direction to satisfy the condition precedent in this subsection (v); provided, however, that all costs and expenses specifically associated with such cure or remedy shall be paid by the Venture utilizing the Venture’s funds obtained from capital calls made for such purpose (provided that nothing in this Agreement shall obligate any party to make any capital contributions to the Venture) or available insurance proceeds, and in no event shall any such costs or expenses be paid or payable from cash flow or reserves of the Venture or the Subsidiaries; and

(vi) no action, suit or proceeding shall be pending or, to Assignor’s knowledge, threatened before any governmental entity or before any arbitrator wherein an unfavorable injunction, judgment, order, decree, ruling or charge would (A) prevent consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (B) cause any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be rescinded following consummation, or (C) affect adversely the right of Assignee to own the LLC Interests (and no such injunction, judgment, order, decree, ruling or charge shall be in effect).
