(b)The Adjustment Amount, if any, shall be calculated pursuant to the following procedures:

(i)On or before the date which is (x) one hundred twenty (120) days  after the end of the fourth quarter of each year and (y) fifty (50) days after the end of each other quarter for each quarter that occurs (fully or partially) within the Calculation Period, Prospect Medical shall prepare and deliver to the MPT Representative a written statement (an “Adjustment Statement”) certified as true and correct by an appropriate officer of Prospect Medical, setting forth in reasonable detail its determination of Annualized Adjusted EBITDAR, together with such supporting financial statements, and stating the resulting Adjustment Amount proscribed by the table above (the “Adjustment Amount Calculation”), along with all other documents and information reasonably necessary for the MPT Representative to confirm Prospect Medical's calculation of Annualized Adjusted EBITDAR and the resulting Adjustment Amount.  For the avoidance of doubt, Prospect Medical shall not be paid any Adjustment Amount until it achieves each level of Annualized Adjusted EBITDAR set forth in the table above, and once paid, that amount shall not be payable again and shall be non-refundable.

(ii)The MPT Representative shall have thirty (30) days after the receipt of the Adjustment Statement and necessary supporting documentation described in Section 1.5(b)(i) (the “Review Period”) to review the Adjustment Statement and the Adjustment Amount Calculation. During the Review Period, the MPT Representative and its representatives and accountants shall have the right to inspect the books and records of Prospect Medical and the Prospect Medical Subsidiaries (including the Special Condition Sellers) during normal business hours at Prospect Medical’s offices, upon reasonable prior notice and for purposes reasonably related to the determination of Annualized Adjusted EBITDAR during the Calculation Period and the resulting Adjustment Amount. Prior to the expiration of the Review Period, the MPT Representative may object to the Adjustment Amount Calculation set forth in the Adjustment Statement by delivering a written notice of objection (an “Adjustment Objection Notice”) to Prospect Medical. Any Adjustment Objection Notice shall specify the items in the applicable Adjustment Statement disputed by the MPT Representative and shall describe in reasonable detail the basis for such objection.

6


 

(c)If the MPT Representative fails to timely deliver an Adjustment Objection Notice to Prospect Medical prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then Prospect Medical shall send a notice stating in ALL CAPS: “THIS IS A SECOND NOTICE DELIVERING THE ADJUSTMENT STATEMENT AND FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS SHALL CONSTITUTE YOUR DEEMED APPROVAL OF ALL MATTERS SET FORTH HEREIN.” which shall include a copy of the original delivery of the Adjustment Statement and materials described and contained therein (the “Adjustment Statement Second Notice”). If the MPT Representative fails to timely deliver an Adjustment Objection Notice to Prospect Medical on or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after the receipt of an Adjustment Statement Second Notice, then the Adjustment Amount Calculation set forth in the Adjustment Statement shall be deemed accepted by the MPT Representative. If the MPT Representative timely delivers an Adjustment Objection Notice to Prospect Medical, the MPT Representative and Prospect Medical shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the disputed items (and any related items that impact the Adjustment Amount Calculation) and agree upon the consolidated Annualized Adjusted EBITDAR during the Calculation Period and the Adjustment Amount. If the MPT Representative and Prospect Medical are unable to reach agreement within thirty (30) days after such Adjustment Objection Notice has been given, all unresolved disputed items that were raised in the Adjustment Objection Notice by the MPT Representative or during the good faith negotiations by Prospect Medical shall be promptly referred to a nationally recognized accounting firm that does not have a current relationship with either the Prospect Medical Parties or the MPT Parties (the “Independent Accounting Firm”). The Independent Accounting Firm shall be directed to render a written report stating such Independent Accounting Firm’s conclusion with respect to each of the unresolved disputed items with respect to Prospect Medical's Adjustment Statement as promptly as practicable, but in no event greater than thirty (30) days after such submission to the Independent Accounting Firm, and to resolve only those unresolved disputed items set forth in the Adjustment Objection Notice. If unresolved disputed items are submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm, the MPT Representative and Prospect Medical shall each furnish to the Independent Accounting Firm such work papers, schedules, financial statements, and other documents and information relating to the unresolved disputed items as the Independent Accounting Firm may reasonably request. The Independent Accounting Firm shall resolve the disputed items based solely on the applicable definitions and other terms in this Agreement and the presentations by the MPT Representative and Prospect Medical, and not by independent review. The resolution of the disputed items and the calculation of consolidated Annualized Adjusted EBITDAR during the Calculation Period that is the subject of the Adjustment Objection Notice by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be final and binding on the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event there is an on-going review by the Independent Accounting Firm with respect to any Adjustment Amount (an “On-Going Review”) and the MPT Representative duly delivers an Adjustment Objection Notice challenging the same matters being considered in the On-Going Review, then such matters shall immediately be submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm for expedited review, who will resolve such new matters simultaneously with resolution of the On-Going Review, or if reasonably necessary, shall have an additional ten (10) days after such supplemental submission to render a complete and binding report. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne 50% by the Sellers and the Borrower and 50% by the Buyers and the Lender, unless the originally submitted Adjustment Statement was incorrect in its calculation of Annualized Adjusted EBITDAR by five percent (5%) or more, in which case such fees and expenses shall be 100% obligation of the Sellers and the Borrower.

7


 

(d)Any Adjustment Amount payable pursuant to Section 1.5(a) shall be paid in full no later than thirty (30) days following the date on which the determination of the Adjustment Amount (“Adjustment Amount Payment Date”), if any, becomes final and binding upon the parties as provided in Section 1.5(b) (including any final resolution of any dispute raised by the MPT Representative in an Adjustment Objection Notice). The applicable MPT Parties shall pay or loan (as applicable) the applicable Individual Adjustment Amount (as defined in Section 1.8(c)) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account as specified by Prospect Medical.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the MPT Parties shall have the right to withhold and set-off against any amount then due and payable as of the Adjustment Amount Payment Date pursuant to Section 1.5(c) for costs of the Independent Accounting Firm and any amounts (including, without limitation, any indemnification payments) to which any MPT Indemnified Party is then entitled under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document as of the Adjustment Amount Payment Date, including, without limitation, the Master Leases, the TRS Note, the Mortgage Loan Agreement and the Promissory Note.

1.6Liabilities of Prospect Medical Parties. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, none of the MPT Parties shall assume or agree to pay, satisfy, discharge or perform, or shall be deemed by virtue of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, or any other document delivered at the applicable Closing pursuant to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, or as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or such other document, to have assumed, or to have agreed to pay, satisfy, discharge or perform, or shall be liable for, any liability, obligation, contract, or Indebtedness of any of the Prospect Medical Parties or any other Person, whether primary or secondary, direct or indirect, including, without limitation, any liability or obligation relating to the ownership, use or operation of any of the Acquired Assets, the Financed Asset or the Facilities prior to the applicable Closing, any liability or obligation arising out of or related to any breach, default, tort or similar act committed by any of the Prospect Medical Parties or any of their Affiliates, or for any failure of the Prospect Medical Parties or any of their Affiliates to perform any covenant or obligation for or during any period prior to the applicable Closing, and any liability arising out of the ownership and operation of the Acquired Assets, the Financed Asset and the Facilities by the Prospect Medical Parties or any other Person prior to the applicable Closing (collectively, the "Excluded Liabilities"). The Prospect Medical Parties will pay and discharge or cause to be paid and discharged all such Excluded Liabilities in the Ordinary Course of Business. The terms of this Section 1.6 shall survive the applicable Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, all mortgage loans or other borrowings secured by the Real Property (other than the mortgage loans to be made by the Lender to the Borrower as contemplated in this Agreement) shall be repaid by the Prospect Medical Parties (who shall all have the right to apply proceeds received by any of the Prospect Medical Subsidiaries hereunder towards the repayment of such mortgage loans or other borrowings), at or prior to the applicable Closing, and none of the MPT Parties shall assume any obligations of the Prospect Medical Parties or any of their Affiliates, as applicable, with respect thereto.

8.3MPT Parties' Agreement to Indemnify.  Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 8, from and after the Closing each of the MPT Parties, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Prospect Medical Parties, and their respective representatives (collectively, the “Prospect Medical Indemnified Parties”) from and against all demands, claims, actions, losses, damages, liabilities, penalties, Taxes, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, settlement costs, arbitration costs and any reasonable other expenses for investigating or defending any action or threatened action) asserted against or incurred by any of Prospect Medical Indemnified Parties or any of them to the extent arising out of or in connection with or resulting from any breach of or misrepresentation associated with any Fundamental Representations of the MPT Parties (collectively, the “Prospect Medical Party Damages”).  

8.4Notification and Defense of Claims.

(a)If any party is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 (the “Indemnified Party”), the Indemnified Party shall notify the party liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”), in writing, of any claim or demand which the Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, as soon as possible after the  Indemnified Party becomes aware of such claim or demand; provided that, the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice to the Seller Parties in a timely fashion shall not result in the loss of the Indemnified Party’s rights with respect thereto except to the extent (x) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by the delay or (y) such notice relates to indemnification for breach of or misrepresentation associated with any Fundamental Representations or Surviving Representations and same is received more than ninety (90) days after the expiration of the survival period specified in Section 8.1.

(b)If the Indemnified Party shall duly and timely notify the Indemnifying Party of any claim or demand pursuant to the provisions hereof, and if such claim or demand relates to a claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party shall have the obligation either (i) to promptly pay such claim or demand, or (ii) defend any such Third Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party under this Section 8.4 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation, provided that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ counsel, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, to represent it if (A) in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable opinion the Indemnifying Party is not diligently prosecuting the defense of such Third Party Claim, (B) such Third Party Claim involves remedies against the Indemnified Party other than monetary damages and such remedies, in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, could have a material adverse effect on such Indemnified Party, (C) the  Indemnified Party may have available to it one or more defenses or counterclaims that are inconsistent with one or more defenses or counterclaims that may be alleged by the Indemnifying Party, or (D) the Indemnified Party believes in its reasonable discretion that a conflict of interest exists between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim or action, and in any such event the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel for the Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party.  

42


 

(c)No Indemnifying Party may, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim and does not contain any equitable order, judgment or term which includes any admission of wrongdoing or could result in any liability (including regulatory liability) of the Indemnified Party or which would otherwise in any manner affect, restrain or interfere with the business of the  Indemnified Party or any of the Indemnified Party’s Affiliates.

8.5Investigations. The right to indemnification based upon breaches or inaccuracies of representations, warranties and covenants will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, whether as a result of disclosure by a party pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty or covenant, unless specifically set forth on the Schedules (as defined in Section 10.2 of this Agreement). The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant, will not affect a party’s right to indemnification, payment of damages or other remedies based on such representations, warranties and covenants.

8.6Limitation of Liability.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the maximum liability of the Prospect Medical Parties under this Section 8 shall be an amount equal to the aggregate of the Purchase Price and the Mortgage Loan Amount.  

8.7Exclusive Remedy.  FROM AND AFTER THE CLOSING, THE PARTIES AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION 8 SHALL BE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT FOR BREACHES OF THIS AGREEMENT AND FOR ALL DISPUTES ARISING UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS OR DOCUMENTS EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN OR ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, EXCEPT FOR POST-CLOSING COVENANTS OR CASES WHERE SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE IS AVAILABLE AS A REMEDY.  The Parties may not avoid the limitations on liability, recovery and recourse set forth in this SECTION 8 by seeking damages for breach of contract, tort or pursuant to any other theory or liability.

10.2Disclosure Schedules.  Certain information set forth in the schedules to this Agreement (as may be amended from time to time by a Schedule Supplement, the "Schedules") is included solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The disclosure of any information shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that such information is required to be disclosed in connection with the representations and warranties made by the MPT Parties or the Prospect Medical Parties, as applicable, in this Agreement or that such information is material, nor shall such information be deemed to establish a standard of materiality, nor shall it be deemed an admission of any liability of, or concession as to any defense available to, MPT Parties or the Prospect Medical Parties, or their respective Affiliates, as applicable. Any information set forth in one section of the Schedule will be deemed to apply to other sections of the Schedules to which its relevance is reasonably inferable and/or apparent from the face of such disclosure (notwithstanding the omission of a reference or cross-reference thereto); provided, that, the Parties shall use good faith efforts to include a clear reference or cross-reference to such relevant information contained in other Schedules. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, the Prospect Medical Parties shall have the right to amend and/or supplement the Schedules to reflect (a)(i) any deficiencies or inaccuracies in such Schedule arising out of circumstances or matters occurred or existed at or prior to the date hereof, and (ii) any deficiencies or inaccuracies in such Schedule arising out of circumstances or matters which first occurred or arose after the date of hereof, where such deficiency or inaccuracy would cause a failure of any condition set forth in Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, and (b) any other matter that, if existing or occurring at or prior to the date hereof, would have been required to be set forth or described on such a Schedule or that is necessary to complete or correct any information in any representation or warranty contained in any of such Schedules (any such amendment or supplement, a "Schedule Supplement"); provided, that, unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by the MPT Parties, no additions, changes, or disclosures contained in any Schedule Supplement shall be deemed to cure any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty, covenant or agreement or to satisfy any condition or be considered for purposes of establishing whether or not the closing conditions set forth in Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 have been satisfied.

10.3Assignment.  This Agreement is not assignable by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the MPT Parties may at any time and without the consent of the Prospect Medical Parties assign all of the MPT Parties' rights and obligations hereunder to any Affiliate of the MPT Parties; provided, however, any such assignment does not result in any additional consents or any material delay of the applicable Closing; provided further, however, that no such assignment shall relieve or release the MPT Parties from their obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the MPT Parties may not assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the MPT Parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement to any Affiliate of the MPT Parties that is owned, in whole or in part, by a Non-Permissible Assignee, except to the extent that any such assignment or transfer would be permitted under the other Transaction Documents.

10.4Severability.  The Parties agree that each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement or any application of this Agreement (as to any Party or otherwise) is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision or application shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any other applications of this Agreement.

46


 

10.5Interpretation.  The definitions set forth in Annex A and elsewhere in this Agreement shall apply equally to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined.  Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms.  Unless otherwise indicated, the words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The words “herein”, “hereof and “hereunder” and words of similar import shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits) in its entirety and not to any part hereof, unless the context shall otherwise require.  All references herein to Articles, Sections, Schedules and Exhibits shall be deemed to refer to Articles, Sections and Schedules of, and Exhibits to, this Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require. Unless the context shall otherwise require, any references to any agreement or other instrument or statute or regulation are to it as amended and supplemented from time to time (and, in the case of a statute or regulation, to any corresponding provisions of successor statutes or regulations).  Any reference in this Agreement to a “day” or number of “days” that does not refer explicitly to a “Business Day” or “Business Days” shall be interpreted as a reference to a calendar day or number of calendar days. If any action or notice is to be taken or given on or by a particular calendar day, and such calendar day is not a Business Day, then such action or notice shall be deferred until, or may be taken or given on, the next Business Day. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.  

10.6Fees and Expenses.

If the Transactions are not consummated because or as a result of the Prospect Medical Parties' failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement, then all fees and expenses of the parties shall be paid by the Prospect Medical Parties in accordance with Section 6.5 hereof.
