Terms of the Offer Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, the Purchasers will accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered on or prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn in accordance with Section 4 of this Offer to Purchase. The term “Expiration Date” shall mean 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, on September 30, 2011, unless and until the Purchasers shall have extended the period of time for which the Offer is open, in which event the term “Expiration Date” shall mean the latest time and date on which the Offer, as so extended by the Purchasers, shall expire. The Offer is conditioned on satisfaction of certain conditions. See Section 13, which sets forth in full the conditions of the Offer. The Purchasers reserve the right (but shall not be obligated), in their sole discretion and for any reason, to waive any or all of such conditions. If, by the Expiration Date, any or all of such conditions have not been satisfied or waived, the Purchasers reserve the right (but shall not be obligated) to (i) decline to purchase any of the Shares tendered, terminate the Offer and return all tendered Shares to tendering Shareholders, (ii) waive all the unsatisfied conditions and, subject to complying with applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, purchase all Shares validly tendered, (iii) extend the Offer and, subject to the right of Shareholders to withdraw Shares until the Expiration Date, retain the Shares that have been tendered during the period or periods for which the Offer is extended or (iv) to amend the Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the expiration of the Offer, if all conditions are either satisfied or waived, the Purchasers will promptly pay for all validly tendered Shares upon confirmation from the REIT that you own the Shares, and the Purchasers do not intend to imply that the foregoing rights of the Purchasers would permit the Purchasers to delay payment for validly tendered Shares following expiration. The Purchasers do not anticipate and have no reason to believe that any condition or event will occur that would prevent the Purchasers from purchasing tendered Shares as offered herein. Further, by tendering your Shares, you are agreeing to arbitrate any disputes that may arise between you and the Purchasers or the Depositary, to subject yourself to personal jurisdiction in Washington, and that the prevailing party in any such action will be entitled to recover attorney fees and costs. However, by so doing, you are not waiving any of your rights under the federal securities laws or any rule or regulation thereunder.
Rejection of Any Subscription or Termination of the Offering No later than three (3) business days after receipt by NCPS of written notice (i) from Issuer that the Issuer intends to reject a Subscriber’s subscription, (ii) from Issuer and Broker that there will be no closing of the sale of Securities to Subscribers, (iii) from any federal or state regulatory authority that any application by Issuer to conduct a banking business has been denied, or (iv) from the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other federal or state regulatory authority that a stop or similar order has been issued with respect to the Offering Document and has remained in effect for at least twenty (20) days, NCPS shall pay to the applicable Subscriber(s), by ACH , the amount of the Cash Investment paid by each Subscriber.
Participation of Broker-Dealers in Exchange Offer (a) The Staff has taken the position that any broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in the Exchange Offer in exchange for Securities that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”) may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. The Company and the Guarantors understand that it is the Staff’s position that if the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement includes a plan of distribution containing a statement to the above effect and the means by which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Securities, without naming the Participating Broker-Dealers or specifying the amount of Exchange Securities owned by them, such Prospectus may be delivered by Participating Broker-Dealers (or, to the extent permitted by law, made available to purchasers) to satisfy their prospectus delivery obligation under the Securities Act in connection with resales of Exchange Securities for their own accounts, so long as the Prospectus otherwise meets the requirements of the Securities Act.
Procedure for Acceptance If Tenant wishes to exercise Tenant’s right of first refusal with respect to the space described in the First Refusal Notice, then within five (5) business days after delivery of the First Refusal Notice to Tenant (“Election Date”), Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord of Tenant’s exercise of its right of first refusal with respect to the entire space described in the First Refusal Notice and on the First Refusal Economic Terms contained therein. Subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 1.4.2, if Tenant does not exercise its right of first refusal within the five (5) business day period (on all of the First Refusal Economic Terms), then Landlord shall be free to lease the space described in the First Refusal Notice to anyone to whom Landlord desires on any terms Landlord desires and Tenant’s right of first refusal with respect to the space identified in the First Refusal notice shall thereupon automatically terminate; provided, however, that if Landlord intends to enter into a lease upon First Refusal Economic Terms which are, in the aggregate, materially more favorable to a prospective tenant than those First Refusal Economic Terms proposed by Landlord in the First Refusal Notice to Tenant, then Landlord shall first deliver written notice to Tenant (“Second Chance Notice”) providing Tenant with the opportunity to lease the First Refusal Space on such more favorable First Refusal Economic Terms. For purposes hereof, First Refusal Economic Terms shall be materially more favorable to a third party if such First Refusal Economic Terms reflect a net effective rental rate (including any rent abatement and Tenant Improvement costs/allowance and any other economic concessions) less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the net effective rental rate for such First Refusal Space as those proposed by Landlord in the First Refusal Notice to Tenant. Tenant’s failure to elect to lease the First Refusal Space upon such more favorable First Refusal Economic Terms by written notice to Landlord within five (5) business days after Tenant’s receipt of such Second Chance Notice from Landlord shall be deemed to constitute Tenant’s election not to lease such space upon such more favorable First Refusal Economic Terms, in which case Landlord shall be entitled to lease such space to any third (3rd) party on terms not materially more favorable to the third (3rd) party than those set forth in the Second Chance Notice; provided, however, that for purposes of the Second Chance Notice, First Refusal Economic Terms shall be materially more favorable to a third party if such First Refusal Economic Terms reflect a net effective rental rate (including any rent abatement and Tenant Improvement costs/allowance and any other economic concessions) less than ninety-eight percent (98%) of the net effective rental rate for such First Refusal Space as those proposed by Landlord in the First Refusal Notice to Tenant. If Landlord does lease such First Refusal Space to a third (3rd) party tenant pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section 1.4.2, Tenant shall have no further right to lease such First Refusal Space. If Landlord does not enter into a lease or leases all of the First Refusal Space identified by Landlord in such First Refusal Notice within three (3) months after the date Landlord first delivered such First Refusal Notice to Tenant, then Landlord shall submit to Tenant a new First Refusal Notice with respect to any such unleased First Refusal Space before Landlord may lease such space to another party, provided that no existing Superior Right holder wishes to lease such space in accordance with its Superior Rights in which event the foregoing procedures shall again apply following Tenant’s receipt of such new First Refusal Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant must elect to exercise its right of first refusal, if at all, with respect to all of the space comprising the First Refusal Space offered by Landlord to Tenant at any particular time, and Tenant may not elect to lease only a portion thereof or object to any of the First Refusal Economic Terms.

Any application for additional Securities will be subject to rejection in whole or in part.
Procedure for Offer Landlord shall notify Tenant (the “First Offer Notice”) from time to time when Landlord determines that Landlord shall commence the marketing of any First Offer Space because such space shall become available for lease to third parties, where no holder of a Superior Right desires to lease such space. The First Offer Notice shall describe the space so offered to Tenant and shall set forth Landlord’s proposed material economic terms and conditions applicable to Tenant’s lease of such space (collectively, the “Economic Terms”),including the proposed term of lease and the proposed rent payable for the First Offer Space. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s obligation to deliver the First Offer Notice shall not apply during the last nine (9) months of the initial Term unless Tenant has delivered an Interest Notice to Landlord pursuant to Section 3l(c) above nor shall Landlord be obligated to deliver the First Offer Notice during the last eight (8) months of the initial Term unless Tenant has timely delivered Tenant’s Acceptance to Landlord pursuant to Section 31(c) above and such right of first offer shall not apply during any applicable Option Term.
TERMINATION OF THE OFFERING The undersigned understands that the Company may terminate the offering at any time and for any reason. If the offering is so terminated, and the Company is holding subscriptions that have not been accepted by an authorized representative of the Company, together with the un-accepted subscription agreements, then in that event the subscriptions so held shall be returned without any interest earned thereon.
CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER Annex A to the Merger Agreement provides that notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer, and in addition to (and not in limitation of) Purchaser's rights to extend the Offer under certain circumstances (subject to the provisions of the Merger Agreement), Purchaser shall not be required to accept for payment or, subject to the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of or, subject to the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, payment for, any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, and may terminate the Offer and not accept for payment any Shares, if (x) any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act has not expired or terminated prior to the expiration of the Offer, (y) the Minimum Condition has not been satisfied or (z) at any time on or after the date of the Merger Agreement and before the time of acceptance of Shares pursuant to the Offer, any of the following events shall have occurred: (a) there shall be any statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order or injunction enacted, entered, enforced, promulgated, or deemed applicable, pursuant to an authoritative interpretation by or on behalf of a Governmental Entity, to the Offer or the Merger, that (i) prohibits or imposes any material limitations on Parent's or Purchaser's ownership or operation (or that of any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) of all or a portion of their or the Company's businesses or assets, or to compel Parent or Purchaser or their respective subsidiaries and affiliates to dispose of or hold separate any portion of the business or assets of the Company or Parent and their respective subsidiaries, which prohibition, limitation, disposition or hold separate obligation could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Parent, (ii) restrains or prohibits the making or consummation of the Offer or the Merger or the performance of any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (iii) imposes material limitations on the ability of Purchaser, or renders Purchaser unable, to accept for payment, pay for or purchase some or all of the Shares pursuant to the Offer and the Merger, or (iv) imposes material limitations on the ability of Purchaser or Parent effectively to exercise full rights of ownership of the Shares, including, without limitation, the right to vote the Shares purchased by it on all matters properly presented to the Company's stockholders; or (b) (i) the Company Board (or any committee thereof) shall have withdrawn, modified or changed in any adverse manner to Parent and Purchaser or failed to reconfirm upon the request of Parent, its approval or recommendation of the Offer, the Merger, or the Merger Agreement, or shall have endorsed, approved or recommended any other Takeover Proposal or (ii) the Company shall have entered into any agreement with respect to any Superior Proposal pursuant to the provision described in clause (iv) under the heading "Termination; Fees" in Section 12 hereof; or 29
Acceptance Procedures Based on the Reply Prices and Reply Amounts received by the Auction Agent prior to the applicable Auction Response Date, the Auction Agent, in consultation with the Auction Party, will determine the applicable price (the “Applicable Price”) for the Auction, which will be the lowest Reply Price for which the Auction Party can complete the Auction at the Auction Amount; provided that, in the event that the Reply Amounts are insufficient to allow the Auction Party to complete a purchase of the entire Auction Amount (any such Auction, a “Failed Auction”), the Auction Party shall either, at its election, (i) withdraw the Auction or (ii) complete the Auction at an Applicable Price equal to the highest Reply Price. The Auction Party shall purchase the relevant Term Loans (or the respective portions thereof) from each Lender with a Reply Price that is equal to or lower than the Applicable Price (“Qualifying Bids”) at the Applicable Price; provided that if the aggregate proceeds required to purchase all Term Loans subject to Qualifying Bids would exceed the Auction Amount for such Auction, the Auction Party shall purchase such Term Loans at the Applicable Price ratably based on the principal amounts of such Qualifying Bids (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Auction Agent in its discretion). If a Lender has submitted a Return Bid containing multiple bids at different Reply Prices, only the bid with the lowest Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Price will be deemed to be the Qualifying Bid of such Lender (e.g., a Reply Price of $100 with a discount to par of 1%, when compared to an Applicable Price of $100 with a 2% discount to par, will not be deemed to be a Qualifying Bid, while, however, a Reply Price of $100 with a discount to par of 2.50% would be deemed to be a Qualifying Bid). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within five Business Days following the Auction Response Date with respect to an Auction, notify (I) the Borrower of the respective Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the effective date of the purchase of Term Loans pursuant to such Auction, the Applicable Price, and the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans and the tranches thereof to be purchased pursuant to such Auction, (II) each participating Lender of the effective date of the purchase of Term Loans pursuant to such Auction, the Applicable Price, and the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Loans to be purchased at the Applicable Price on such date, (III) each participating Lender of the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of the Term Loans of such Lender to be purchased at the Applicable Price on such date and (IV) if applicable, each participating Lender of any rounding and/or proration pursuant to the second preceding sentence. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.
Delivery upon Request or Termination Upon request by the Employer, and in any event upon termination of employment with the Employer, the Employee will promptly deliver to the Employer all property belonging to the Employer, including without limitation, all Company Information then in the Employee's possession or control.
