(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Talisker contained in this Agreement (including all schedules hereto) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (without giving effect to any materiality limitations or qualifications thereto, including materiality or Material Adverse Effect;

(b) any breach of any covenant or agreement by Talisker contained in this Agreement or any Transaction Document; or

Buyer shall save, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Talisker and its Affiliates and the respective Representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing from and against any and all Losses asserted against, incurred, sustained or suffered by any of the foregoing as a result of, arising out of or relating to:

(b) any breach of any covenant or agreement by Buyer contained in this Agreement or any Transaction Document; and

Section 8.4 Procedures.

(a) In order for a party (the “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of, arising out of or involving a Loss or a claim or demand made by any person against the Indemnified Party

(a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall deliver notice thereof to the party against whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) with reasonable promptness after receipt by such Indemnified Party of written notice of the Third Party Claim and shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure by the Indemnified Party to provide such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

(b) If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party against any and all Losses that may result from a Third Party Claim that is exclusively for civil monetary damages at law pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement of such Third Party Claim, to assume the defense thereof at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (which expenses shall not be applied against any indemnity limitation herein) with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of (x) any Third Party Claim for equitable or injunctive relief or any claim that would impose criminal liability or damages, or (y) any Third Party Claim relating to Taxes with respect to a period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date, and (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, any such Third Party Claim described in clauses (x) and/or (y). The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party does not expressly elect to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within the time period and otherwise in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 8.4(b), the Indemnified Party shall have the sole right to assume the defense of and to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party or (ii) the named parties to the Third Party Claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that representation by counsel to the Indemnifying Party of both the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party may present such counsel with a conflict of interest. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such Third Party Claim if such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) involves a finding or admission of wrongdoing,

(ii) does not include an unconditional written release by the claimant or plaintiff of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim, (iii) imposes equitable remedies or any obligation on the Indemnified Party other than solely the payment of money damages for which the Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder or (iv) would have an adverse effect on the Indemnified Party with respect to Taxes.

(c) The indemnification required hereunder in respect of a Third Party Claim shall be made by prompt payment by the Indemnifying Party of the amount of actual Losses in connection therewith, as and when bills are received by the Indemnifying Party or Losses incurred have been notified to the Indemnifying Party, together with interest on any amount not repaid as necessary to the Indemnified Party by the Indemnifying Party within five (5) Business Days after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of notice of such Losses, at Interest Rate (as defined in the Lease).

(d) The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to require that any action be made or brought against any other Person before action is brought or claim is made against it hereunder by the Indemnified Party.

(e) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure by the Indemnified Party to provide such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party or otherwise than pursuant to this Article VIII. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days following its receipt of such notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder, such claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party agrees that it has an indemnification obligation but asserts that it is obligated to pay a lesser amount than that claimed by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall pay such lesser amount promptly to the Indemnified Party, without prejudice to or waiver of the Indemnified Party’s claim for the difference.

(f) Talisker shall have 90 days from the date of notice under Section 8.4(e) by Buyer of a Loss relating to a breach of Section 3.4, Section 3.11 or Section 3.15 to cure such breach by delivering a right to control and possession of any Real Estate or Water Rights, the absence of which gives rise to such breach, including by delivering a leasehold or easement right to Buyer.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VIII, upon written notice to Talisker pursuant to the Investment Agreement and Sundial Mortgage, as applicable, Buyer shall have the right to exercise its remedies under the Investment

Agreement or the Sundial Mortgage to satisfy any liability, loss, cost or expense incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with such dispute or the exercise of the Indemnified Party’s rights under this Agreement.

(h) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 10.9, each Indemnifying Party hereby consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court in which an Action in respect of a Third Party Claim is brought against any Indemnified Party for purposes of any claim that an Indemnified Party may have under this Agreement with respect to such Action or the matters alleged therein and agrees that process may be served on each Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim anywhere.

Section 8.5 Limits on Indemnification.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, subject to Section 8.5(b): (i) an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.3(a), as the case may be, unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Indemnifying Party equals or exceeds Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) (the “Basket”), in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be liable only for the amount of such Losses exceeding the Basket, and (ii) the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from an Indemnifying Party arising out of or relating to the causes set forth in Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.3(a), as the case may be, shall be an amount equal to Twenty-Five Million Dollars $25,000,000 (the “Cap”).

(b) The Basket and the Cap shall not apply to Losses arising out of or relating to (x) the inaccuracy or breach of any Fundamental Representation or (y) fraud or intentional breach.

(c) The Indemnified Party may not make a claim for indemnification under Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.3(a), as the case may be, for breach by the Indemnifying Party of a particular representation or warranty after the expiration of the survival period thereof specified in Section 8.1, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 8.1.

(d) Buyer shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 8.2(c) with respect to (i) any violation of Environmental Law or Release of Hazardous Substance disclosed in the 2010 Environ Report and the 2013 Environ Report, or (ii) any violation of Law that would not be a breach of Talisker’s representation in Section 3.7(a).

Section 8.6 Remedies Not Affected by Investigation, Disclosure or Knowledge. If the Transactions are consummated, Buyer expressly reserves the right to seek indemnity or other remedy for any Losses arising out of or relating to any breach of any representation, warranty (as such representations and warranties may be specifically modified or limited by the Disclosure Schedules or the Datasite), or covenant contained herein, notwithstanding any investigation by, disclosure to or knowledge of Buyer in respect of any facts or circumstances that reveal the occurrence of any such breach, whether before or after the execution and delivery hereof.

(c) by either Talisker or Buyer if the Closing shall not have occurred by July 31, 2013; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(c) shall not be available if the failure of the party so requesting termination to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date; or

(d) by either Talisker or Buyer in the event that any Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and nonappealable; provided, that the party so requesting termination shall have used its commercially reasonable efforts, in accordance with Section 5.10, to have such order, decree, ruling or other action vacated.

The Hearing will be held in Salt Lake City, Utah unless the parties agree in writing to a different location. At the Hearing, the selected arbitrator(s) will review any evidence the parties present. Talisker and Buyer shall each have the right to appear and be represented by counsel before the arbitrator(s) and to submit such evidence, data and memoranda in support of their respective positions as they may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances. The arbitrator(s), in connection with the foregoing, shall have the right to retain and consult experts and competent authorities skilled in the matter under arbitration. The arbitrator(s) shall resolve the Arbitrable Matter and make a determination within ten (10) Business Days after the date the Hearing is concluded. The determination of the arbitrator(s) shall be in writing and be final and conclusive on the parties and copies thereof shall be delivered to each of the parties. Judgment may be had on the determination of the arbitrator(s) so rendered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If for any reason whatsoever the written determination of the arbitrator(s) shall not be rendered within 180 Business Days after the date of the initial Arbitration Demand, then at any time thereafter before such decision shall have been rendered either party may apply to a Utah court having jurisdiction (or to any other court having jurisdiction) by action, proceeding or otherwise (but not by a new arbitration proceeding) as may be proper to render a decision consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. The parties shall cooperate with scheduling and similar procedural matters to permit the arbitrator(s) to make his or her determination as expeditiously as possible.

(c) If one party shall entirely prevail in an arbitration, as determined by the arbitrator(s), then the losing party in such arbitration will pay all of the prevailing party’s costs incurred in connection therewith, including, without limitation, the costs and fees of the arbitrator(s); provided, however, if neither party shall entirely prevail in the arbitration, each party shall pay the attorneys’ fees, witness fees and similar expenses (including expenses of presenting its own proof) incurred by such party and the fees and expenses of the arbitrator(s) and all other expenses of the arbitration shall be borne by the parties equally.

Section 10.10 Assignment; Successors. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void; provided, however, that Buyer may assign this Agreement to any Affiliate of Buyer without the prior consent of Talisker; provided further, that no

assignment shall limit the assignor’s obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 10.11 Enforcement in Court of Claims for Equitable Relief Including Specific Performance or an Injunction. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.9, each of the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, including an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any Utah State or federal court, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereby further waives (a) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any Law to post security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

Section 10.12 Currency. All references to “dollars” or “$” or “US$” in this Agreement or any Transaction Document refer to United States dollars, which is the currency used for all purposes in this Agreement and any Transaction Document.

Section 10.13 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

Section 10.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 10.15 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same instrument and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party.

Section 10.16 Facsimile or .pdf Signature. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or .pdf signature and a facsimile or .pdf signature shall constitute an original for all purposes.

Section 10.17 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Buyer and Talisker have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized.
