Notes. (1) Temperature of the thermal emission. (2) Photon index of the power-law. (3), (4) Luminosities of the thermal and power-law components in the 0.5-8 keV energy range. (5) The combined luminosity of unresolved low-mass X-ray binaries brighter than $10^{35} \ {\rm erg \ s^{-1}}$ (but fainter than the sensitivity limit for the given galaxy) estimated from the K-band luminosity of the studied region and the average LMXB X-ray luminosity function of Gilfanov (2004). (6) The observed luminosity ratio of the soft thermal component to the power-law. (7) Same as (6) but corrected for contribution of unresolved LMXBs. For NGC 3377 and NGC 3585, the predicted LMXB luminosity exceeds the observed luminosity of the power-law component, presumably because of a scatter in X/K ratios for LMXBs, therefore no LMXB-corrected luminosity ratio is computed. (8) Goodness of fit.
