AGREEMENT TO SELL

AND PURCHASE REAL ESTATE

THIS AGREEMENT TO SELL AND PURCHASE REAL ESTATE (this “Agreement”), is made and entered into as of August 25, 2004 (the “Effective Date”), by and between KULICKE AND XXXXX INDUSTRIES, INC., a Pennsylvania corporation (“Seller”), party of the first part, and GOOD MAC REALTY PARTNERS, L.P., a Pennsylvania limited partnership (“Buyer”), party of the second part.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Seller is the fee owner of certain land, containing an approximately twenty-one and three-tenths (21.3) acre parcel of land located in the Township of Upper Xxxxxxxx, County of Xxxxxxxxxx and Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, as more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof, together with the buildings, structures and other improvements located thereon (collectively, the “Premises”);

WHEREAS, Seller has offered to sell, and Buyer has agreed to purchase, subject to the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement, the Premises; and

WHEREAS, Buyer is the fee owner of a certain tract of land located adjacent to the Premises (“Buyer’s Land”), comprised of an approximately three and two-tenths (3.2) acre parcel of which was previously sold and Conveyed to Buyer’s nominee pursuant to a deed dated March 4, 2004 and subsequently recorded in the Recorder of Deed Office of Xxxxxxxxxx County Pennsylvania (the “3-Acre Parcel”), and an approximately twenty eight and seven-tenths (28.7) acre parcel (the “Allegro Parcel”) .

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions contained herein, the sufficiency of which consideration is acknowledged by all parties, and intending to be legally bound,

IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

1. AGREEMENT TO SELL AND PURCHASE THE PREMISES; PERSONAL PROPERTY

(a) Subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement, Seller agrees to sell and convey, and Buyer agrees to purchase, the Premises, together with all right, title and interest, if any, of Seller in and to land lying in the bed of any streets, roads, avenues, alleys or passageways, opened or proposed, bounding or abutting the Premises.

(b) The sale and conveyance of the Premises shall specifically exclude all of the personalty described on Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Personal Property”), it being understood that ownership of such personalty and all rights, title and interests therein and thereto shall be retained by Seller upon Closing.

2. PURCHASE PRICE; DEPOSIT. The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Premises is Eleven Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,200,000), which shall be payable as follows:

(a) Within three (3) days after the Effective Date, Buyer shall deliver to Lawyers Title Insurance Corporation (the “Title Company”), as Escrow Agent, Two Hundred Thousand ($200,000) Dollars (the “Deposit”).

(b) On the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the difference between (a) the Purchase Price, and (b) the amount of the Deposit held by the Escrow Agent and delivered to Seller as of the Closing Date, subject to the prorations and adjustments set forth in Section 7 or as otherwise provided under this Agreement, plus any other amounts required to be paid by Buyer to Seller at Closing as provided in this Agreement, and less any amounts to be paid by Seller to Buyer at Closing as provided in this Agreement, in immediately available federal funds by wire transfer as more particularly set forth in Section 21.

3. CLOSING; TIME FOR PERFORMANCE. Closing hereunder shall take place within sixty (60) calendar days after the Diligence Completion Date and, unless before said date Seller and Buyer shall have agreed on a definite time, date and place, at 10:00 A.M. (local time) on such day at the offices of Jaffe, Friedman, Schuman, Nemeroff, Xxxxxxxxx & XxXxxxxxx P.C., 0000 Xxx Xxxx Xxxx, 0^xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx 00000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that Closing shall be held on such earlier date as Buyer shall designate by five (5) days’ prior notice to Seller. The payment by Buyer to Seller of the Purchase Price and delivery by Seller to Buyer of the Deed shall be referred to as the “Closing,” and the date on which the Closing occurs shall be referred to as the “Closing Date.”

4. DUE DILIGENCE; TESTING; ZONING. Buyer shall have until 11:59 P.M. (“local time”) on September 15, 2004 (the “Diligence Completion Date”), to inspect and/or cause one or more surveyors, attorneys, engineers, architects, environmental consultants and/or other experts of Buyer’s choice to inspect, examine, survey, appraise and otherwise do that which, in the opinion of Buyer, is necessary or appropriate for Buyer to satisfy itself with regard to the physical and environmental condition of the Premises, the suitability and feasibility of the Premises for the use intended by Buyer and all other aspects of the Premises as determined by Buyer, in its sole discretion (“Buyer’s Studies”).

(a) By the Diligence Completion Date, Buyer shall at its sole cost and expense obtain and deliver to Seller a Phase I environmental site assessment report (the “Phase I ESA”) of the Premises, together with any Phase II environmental site assessment report (the “Phase II ESA”) requested by Buyer and consented to by Seller under Section 4(d) below. Buyer shall arrange for the prompt commencement of the Phase I ESA and any Phase II ESA so

- 2 -

that, in any event, such work is completed, and written results are available to Buyer and Seller prior to the Diligence Completion Date.

(i) If the Phase I ESA and/or any Phase II ESA discloses that any hazardous or toxic substances, material or waste which are regulated under any Laws (as defined below in Section 4(d)) (the “Contaminants”) are either (A) contained in soil or groundwater at the Premises at concentrations in excess of applicable Statewide Health Standard, non-residential Medium Specific Concentrations pursuant to the Pennsylvania Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (“Act 2”), (B) is otherwise found on, in, under or at the Premises at concentrations in excess of allowable limits under any other applicable environmental Law (in either case, “Identified Contamination”), or (C) contained in soil or groundwater at the Premises at such concentrations and in such locations that Buyer, based upon the reasonable judgment of its consultants and engineers hired to perform the Phase I and/or any Phase II ESA, reasonably determines that the Contaminants have migrated from the Premises to any piece of real property abutting the Premises other then the Allegro Parcel or the 3-Acre Parcel (the “Adjacent Property”), in amounts and concentrations that such Contaminants, if they have in fact migrated to the Adjacent Property, would be found on the Adjacent Property in amounts and concentrations sufficient to be classified as Identified Contamination, then subject to the exception under Section 4(b) below, Buyer shall within ten days (10) after the Diligence Completion Date propose a remediation plan (the “Remediation Plan”) designed to obtain governmental approval of a Final Report under Act 2 addressing all Identified Contamination at the Premises (or an equivalent governmental “no further action” determination under any other applicable environmental Law, if available). It is specifically understood that the Buyer shall have no right to propose a Remediation Plan pursuant to the foregoing subclause 4(a)(i)(C) if any Contaminants that migrated from the Premises to the Adjacent Property originated from Contaminants that originally migrated from either the Allegro Parcel or the 3-Acre Parcel onto the Premises. Buyer and Seller shall have ten (10) days thereafter to confer and attempt in good faith to reach an agreement regarding a mutually-acceptable approach to undertaking Buyer’s Remediation Plan or undertaking a mutually-acceptable alternative Remediation Plan. If Buyer and Seller reach such an agreement, then the parties shall proceed to implement the Remediation Plan in accordance with its terms and Buyer’s environmental due diligence shall be deemed satisfied and complete, and Buyer shall not thereafter assert that any environmental concerns related to the Premises constitute an impediment to proceeding to Closing, including, without limitation, any necessary post-Closing implementation of the Remediation Plan. If Buyer and Seller cannot reach such an agreement, then Buyer shall be required to give notice to Seller within three (3) days after completion of the above-stated negotiation period of Buyer’s agreement either: (I) to terminate this Agreement, in which case the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and thereafter neither party hereto shall have further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder, except for those as by the terms of this Agreement specifically survive a termination hereof; or (II) to proceed to Closing notwithstanding the lack of agreement regarding a Remediation Plan, in which case the Buyer’s environmental due diligence shall be deemed satisfied and complete, and Buyer shall not thereafter assert that any environmental concerns related to the Premises constitute an impediment to proceeding to Closing.

(ii) If the Phase I ESA and/or any Phase II ESA does not disclose the presence of Identified Contamination, or any Contaminants that may have migrated onto the

- 3 -

Adjacent Property, as described above, then the Buyer’s environmental due diligence shall be deemed satisfied and complete, and Buyer shall not thereafter assert that any environmental concerns related to the Premises constitute an impediment to proceeding to Closing.

(b) If the Buyer’s Phase I ESA and/or any Phase II ESA indicates that any Contaminants or Identified Contamination migrated to the Premises from either the Allegro Parcel or the 3-Acre Parcel, then Buyer shall not be entitled to exercise the termination option under Section 4(a) above and shall proceed to Closing, and Buyer further agrees to release, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against any loss, cost, expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees, expenses and court costs), liabilities, and claims arising out of the presence of such migrated Identified Contamination on or under the Premises, and/or arising out of any remediation undertaken to address such migrated Identified Contamination. The indemnity and remediation obligations of Buyer contained in this Section 4(b) are in addition to, and in no way limited by, the provisions of Section 18 and shall survive the Closing, and shall not be merged therein.

(c) If at any time prior to the Diligence Completion Date, Buyer’s Studies (other than the Phase I ESA and Phase II ESA studies), reveals a condition that, in the opinion of the Buyer would interfere with the suitability or feasibility of Buyer’s use of the Premises, then Buyer, upon notice to Seller delivered no later than the Diligence Completion Date shall have the option of terminating this Agreement, in which case the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and thereafter neither party shall have further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder except for those as by the terms of this Agreement specifically survive a termination hereof. In no event may the Buyer provide notice of this option to terminate any later than the Diligence Completion Date.

(d) Subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 4, at any time between the Effective Date and the Diligence Completion Date, Buyer shall be afforded the opportunity to undertake Buyer’s Studies. Commencing upon the Effective Date, Buyer and Buyer’s duly authorized contractors, agents and representatives shall have the right upon twenty-four (24) hours prior notice to Seller to enter upon the Premises for the purpose of conducting Buyer’s Studies, all at Buyer’s sole cost and expense; provided, however, that Buyer shall not conduct any soil, groundwater or other environmental sampling and analysis beyond the reasonable and customary scope of a Phase II ESA for a similarly used and situated commercial property without the prior consent of Seller to a sampling and analysis Work Plan proposed by Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that should the proposed invasive studies either cause Seller to incur any costs or be deemed to be disruptive to the operation of Seller’s business, such events, among others, would be deemed a reasonable basis for Seller to withhold consent. Buyer shall, and shall instruct all contractors, agents and third parties performing any of Buyer’s Studies to conduct Buyer’s Studies in accordance with all applicable laws, rules, ordinances, codes and regulations of the governmental and quasi-governmental authorities (collectively, the “Laws”), and in a manner which will avoid causing any damage to the Premises or injury (including death) to persons on, in or about the Premises. Prior to any such entry, Buyer shall present Seller with evidence of a general liability insurance policy from either Buyer or Buyer’s contractor or agent performing such work, naming Seller as an additional insured, which provides for insurance covering against claims for bodily injury,

- 4 -

death or property damage in connection with the right of entry granted hereunder, in a combined single limit amount of Two Million ($2,000,000.00) Dollars for each occurrence and in the aggregate. Buyer shall keep the Premises free from any liens or third party claims resulting from Buyer’s entry thereon, and shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any loss, cost, expense, (including attorneys’ fees, expenses and court costs), and liabilities, and claims therefor, in connection with injury to persons (including death) or property and damage to the Premises, including mechanic’s liens and the disturbance of a pre-existing environmental condition, incurred by Seller as a result of the entry on the Premises or the undertaking of Buyer’s Studies by or on behalf of Buyer, or both, which indemnification, hold harmless and duty to defend shall survive Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall immediately repair all damage to the Premises caused by Buyer’s entry thereon or any of Buyer’s Studies, or both, and shall restore the Premises to substantially the same order and condition as existed prior to such entry and studies, all at Buyer’s sole cost and expense.

(e) In the period of time between the Effective Date and the Closing Date (or any earlier date upon which this Agreement terminates), Buyer, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, may seek to take necessary actions to have the Premises’ zoning changed from its current status of I-Limited Industrial Use under the Zoning Code of Upper Xxxxxxxx Township to C-1 Commercial under the Zoning Code of Upper Xxxxxxxx Township (the “Zoning Application”). Seller will cooperate, at no cost and expense to itself, with Buyer in Buyer’s efforts to gain approval of the Zoning Application. Buyer shall (i) provide Seller with at least five (5) days notice of all hearings to be held with government officials in connection with the Zoning Application to enable Seller, at its election, to be present thereat or to participate therein, (ii) provide Seller with copies of all applications and supporting materials that Buyer intends to submit to government officials in connection with the Zoning Application either prior to or contemporaneously with such submissions, and (iii) if approval of the Zoning Application is obtained prior to Closing, deliver to the Seller at the time such approval is obtained a letter from the proper governmental authorities in Upper Xxxxxxxx Township, Pennsylvania, confirming that Seller and its successors and assigns (either in its capacity as owner if Closing is not completed, or as tenant if Closing is completed and the Lease is executed and delivered) can continue its present use of the Premises, as a valid nonconforming use under the Zoning Code of Upper Xxxxxxxx Township. It is understood that the Zoning Application shall not form a part of Buyer’s Studies. In the event this Agreement shall terminate prior to the completion of Closing for any reason whatsoever, all right, title and interest of Buyer in the Zoning Application shall revert to Seller, and Seller is hereby appointed by Buyer as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to enable Seller to take all steps necessary to withdraw the Zoning Application.

5. TITLE AND TITLE INSURANCE.

(a) Seller shall give and Buyer shall accept good, marketable fee simple title to the Premises such as the Title Company will be willing to insure in accordance with its standard form of title policy and at standard rates, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

- 5 -

(b) The following shall constitute the “Permitted Exceptions”:

(i) those exceptions to title listed on Exhibit C;

(ii) other easements, restrictions, agreements and covenants of record, provided same would not (A) provide for forfeiture or reverter of title in the event of the violation thereof, or (B) call for the expenditure of any sum of money nor impose any restrictions on the use, development or redevelopment of the Premises for commercial or retail purposes;

(iii) real estate taxes or installments thereof, which, although a lien on the Closing Date, are not due and payable prior to the Closing Date, subject to adjustment as hereinafter set forth;

(iv) the standard preprinted survey and easement exceptions;

(v) First Amendment to Easement Agreement dated as of March 4, 2004, by and between Buyer and Seller (the “Modification Agreement”);

(vi) Easement Agreement dated as of March 4, 2004, by and between Buyer and Seller (the “Computer Avenue Easement”);

(vii) any exceptions caused by Buyer, its agents, representatives or employees; and

(viii) such other exceptions as the Title Company shall commit to insure over, without any additional cost to Buyer, whether such insurance is made available in consideration of payment by Seller, bonding by Seller, indemnity by Seller, or otherwise.

(c) After the Effective Date, Seller shall not further encumber the Premises nor enter into any agreements which create exceptions to marketable title, except for monetary encumbrances which shall be payable at or prior to the Closing Date, and the Lease as is contemplated by this Agreement. As used herein, a “monetary encumbrance” shall be a voluntary encumbrance to marketable title which can be cured by the payment of money in a determinable amount (such as a mortgage).

(d) If title to the Premises cannot be conveyed to Buyer on the Closing Date in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, then Buyer at its option may either: (i) accept such title as Seller can convey without any reduction in the Purchase Price, or (ii) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Title Company, as Escrow Agent, shall refund the Deposit to Buyer, and upon such refund and payment, neither party hereto shall have any further rights, liabilities or obligations under this Agreement, except for those as by the terms of this Agreement shall specifically survive a termination hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if title to the Premises is not as required by this Section 5 because of the willful act or omission of Seller subsequent to the date Seller reviews Buyer’s title commitment, the same shall constitute a default by Seller and Buyer shall be entitled to pursue all remedies available to Buyer pursuant to Section 13.

6. LEASE. Buyer and Seller shall, within a period of thirty (30) days following the Effective Date (the “Lease Negotiation Period”), agree upon a definitive form of Agreement of

- 6 -

Lease (the “Lease”) by and between Buyer, as landlord (the “Landlord”), and Seller, as tenant (the “Tenant”), to be attached to this Agreement as Exhibit D. If Buyer and Seller do not agree upon a definitive form of the Lease by the completion of the Lease Negotiation Period, then each of Buyer and Seller shall be free to terminate this agreement by giving the other party hereto five (5) days notice, in which case the Deposit shall be returned to the Buyer and thereafter neither party hereto shall have any further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder, except for those as by the terms of this Agreement specially survive a termination hereof. The Lease shall be on terms mutually acceptable to the parties in the exercise of their respective opinions, but such terms and conditions shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

(a) Tenant shall lease from Landlord, the Premises for a period of twelve months commencing on the Closing Date (the “Initial Lease Period”).

(b) As consideration for the lease of the Premises during the Initial Lease Period, Tenant shall deposit with the Seller’s Broker or Buyer’s lender (so long as such lender is a reputable, institutional lender which maintains an administrative office in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania), as designated by Buyer, as escrow agent (in this capacity, the “Rent Escrow Agent”), at the Closing Date, rent in the amount of One Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000), such rent deposit to be paid by the Rent Escrow Agent to Landlord in monthly installments of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ( $100,000) on the first day of each calendar month with appropriate adjustment for a partial month if the Closing Date is not on the first day of a calendar month.

(c) Tenant shall be granted options to renew the lease as follows: (i) an option to extend the Initial Lease Period by one (1) six (6) month renewal period (the “First Renewal Period”); and (ii) at the conclusion of the first Renewal Period, Tenant shall have two (2) successive three (3) month renewal periods (each, a “Three Month Renewal Period,” and together, the “Three Month Renewal Periods”) (the Initial Lease Period together with the First Renewal Period and the Three Month Renewal Periods sometimes collectively referred to herein as, the “Lease Term”).

(d) Tenant, if it chooses to exercise its option for the First Renewal Period, must exercise such option in writing at least three (3) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Lease Period. Tenant, if it chooses to exercise either of its options for the Three Month Renewal Periods, must exercise said options in writing at least three (3) months before the commencement date of the subject Three Month Renewal Period.

(e) As consideration for the lease of the Premises during the first Renewal Period, Tenant shall, at the time the option is exercised, deposit with the Rent Escrow Agent, rent in the amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000), such rent to be paid by the Rent Escrow Agent to the Landlord in monthly installments of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) during the first two (2) months of the First Renewal Period on the first day of each calendar month with appropriate adjustment for a partial month if the Closing Date is not on the first day of a calendar month. During the remaining four months of the First Renewal Period, Tenant shall pay directly to Landlord monthly rent in the amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). If Tenant shall exercise either of its options for the Three Month Renewal

- 7 -

Periods, Tenant shall pay directly to Landlord, monthly rent in the amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) on the first day of each calendar month.

(f) Any rents held on deposit by the Rent Escrow Agent shall be deposited into an interest bearing account. Any interest that accrues on such rent deposits shall be, absent a default under the Lease by Tenant, paid to Tenant by the Rent Escrow Agent upon the expiration or termination of the Lease, unless Tenant is in default under the Lease after the giving of any required notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period without a cure having been effectuated, in which case the interest shall be applied to cure Tenant’s default. Landlord shall be responsible for payment of the Rent Escrow Agent for all fees and expenses requested or imposed by the Rent Escrow Agent for such services.

(g) Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of all real estate taxes attributable to the Premises during the Lease Term. Tenant shall also be responsible for payment of all utility charges (utilities to be separately metered as of the Closing Date) for all utilities used and consumed by Tenant during the Lease Term at the Premises and Tenant shall continue to maintain such insurance coverages as are in effect as of the Closing Date.

(h) Except for any cleaning, everyday maintenance and repair of the Premises necessitated by Landlord’s malfeasance or negligent act or omission, Tenant shall be responsible for the cleaning, everyday maintenance and repair of the Premises. Tenant will clean, maintain and repair the Premises to the extent necessary to ensure that the Premises are maintained in their same condition as existed at Closing, reasonable wear and tear, casualty and condemnation excepted; subject, however, to the understanding and agreement that Tenant shall not be obligated to replace any aspect of the roof, buildings, improvements, systems and equipment forming a part of the Premises that are not susceptible to repair.

(i) Landlord shall acknowledge that any obligations Landlord has incurred pursuant to the Modification Agreement, the Computer Avenue Easement and the Existing Easement Agreement shall remain valid and binding upon Landlord during the Lease Term, and shall not be modified, abrogated, diminished or nullified by doctrine of merger, or otherwise, so long as the Lease is in force and effect and notwithstanding that, upon the completion of Closing, Buyer, and its affiliate, shall be the record owner of all properties benefited and burdened thereby.

(j) At the conclusion of the Lease Term, Tenant shall have the obligation to remove the Personal Property from the Premises, at its sole cost and expense.

(k) Landlord shall have no obligation to maintain, repair or replace any portion of any building or any system located on the Premises unless such maintenance, repair or replacement is necessitated by Landlord’s malfeasance or negligent act or omission, in which event Landlord shall promptly undertake such work, at its sole cost and expense.

(l) Tenant, during the Lease Term, shall not conduct its business on, in or from the Premises in violation of any environmental Laws and shall comply with any copies of written notices of (i) uncorrected violations from any governmental authority having jurisdiction

- 8 -

as to any underground storage tanks or hazardous materials used, generated, released, handled, stored, treated or otherwise located in, at, on or under the Premises, and (ii) uncorrected violations as to Laws pertaining to the Premises from any governmental authority having jurisdiction.

7. CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS.

(a) Seller and Buyer shall each pay one half of all state, county and local transfer taxes, if any, occasioned by the conveyance of the Premises and the transactions contemplated herein and the parties shall each execute and deliver any tax form, return or affidavit required in connection with the payment of such transfer taxes or the application for an exemption therefrom.

(b) All real estate taxes due and payable for the calendar or fiscal year, as the case may be, in which the Closing takes place allocable or imposed upon the Premises shall be payable by Seller.

(c) Seller shall pay all additional or “roll-back” taxes allocable to the period before the Closing Date imposed against the Premises pursuant to the Farmland and Forest Rollback Act and the Open Space Rollback Act which are assessed or imposed against the Premises, whether before or after the Closing Date, as a result of any agreement entered into by Seller or Seller’s predecessor in title.

(d) If on the Effective Date, the Premises or any part thereof shall be or shall have been affected by an assessment or assessments which are or may become payable in annual installments, of which the first installment is then a charge or lien, or has been paid, then for the purposes of this Agreement all the unpaid installments of any such assessment, including those which are to become due and payable after the Closing Date, shall be deemed to be due and payable and to be liens upon the Premises affected thereby and shall be paid and discharged by Seller.

(e) Buyer shall pay all premiums and charges of the Title Company for the Title Policy (including endorsements other than endorsements required to remove Title Objections which Seller has agreed to remove at Closing) to be issued pursuant to the Commitment, all recording and filing charges in connection with the Deed, one-half (1/2) of any escrow or closing charges (exclusive of any escrow charges under the Lease which, pursuant to Section 6(f), shall be born solely by Landlord), all costs of Buyer’s due diligence, and any other costs customarily paid by the buyer pursuant to local practice.

(f) Each party hereto shall pay its own attorneys.

(g) Any credit due to Buyer pursuant to this Section 7 shall be applied as a credit against the Purchase Price. Any credit due to Seller pursuant to this Section 7 shall be paid to Seller in addition to, and together with, the payment of the Purchase Price at Closing. The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the Closing or the termination of this Agreement.

(vii) such other documents as may be required by this Agreement.

11. SELLER’S COVENANTS PENDING THE CLOSING. Seller covenants and agrees that between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Seller shall:

(a) not grant or create rights in any third parties affecting the Premises or any part thereof except as specifically permitted by this Agreement;

- 11 -

(b) not further encumber the Premises or enter into any agreements which create exceptions to marketable title, except as specifically permitted by this Agreement;

(c) except to the extent Seller is relieved of such obligations by Section 13, maintain and keep the Premises in a manner consistent with Seller’s past practices with respect to the Premises; and

(d) advise Buyer of any notice Seller receives after the Effective Date from any governmental authority relating to the violation of any law or ordinance regulating the condition or use of the Premises.

12. ASSIGNMENT. Buyer shall not assign this Agreement or its rights hereunder to any individual or entity without the prior consent of Seller, which consent Seller may grant or withhold in its sole discretion, and any such assignment without Seller’s consent shall be null and void. Buyer shall be permitted to name nominees to take title to the Premises or any portion or portions thereof in conjunction with the completion of Closing.

13. CONDEMNATION.

(a) In the event prior to the Closing Date of any taking or threat of taking by condemnation (or any conveyance in lieu thereof) of the Premises or any “significant portion” thereof by anyone having the power of eminent domain, Buyer may, by notice to Seller delivered within fifteen (15) days of receiving notice from Seller of such event, elect to terminate this Agreement and all of Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement. The failure by Buyer to deliver such notice of termination within such fifteen (15) day period shall be deemed an election not to terminate this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 13, a “significant portion” of the Premises shall mean a reduction of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises.

(b) If Buyer elects not to terminate this Agreement, (i) Buyer shall have the right to participate in the prosecution of any condemnation proceeding either in its own name or in the name of Seller, or both, and Seller and Buyer shall cooperate fully with respect thereto so as to maximize any award available, (ii) the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the net award (after reimbursement to both Seller and Buyer of their respective costs and expenses, including attorney fees and costs, incurred in connection with their participation in the prosecution of the condemnation proceeding) which has actually been paid to Seller prior to the Closing Date and is allocable to the Premises, (iii) to the extent such award or proceeds have not been paid, Seller shall assign to Buyer on the Closing Date (without recourse to Seller) the rights of Seller to, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and retain, all awards allocable to the taking of the Premises or such portion thereof, and (iv) Seller shall convey to Buyer on the Closing Date that part of the Premises not so taken. If the condemnation proceedings shall not be concluded by the Closing Date, Seller shall transfer and assign to Buyer at the Closing all rights and claims of Seller with respect to payment for damages and compensation allocable to such taking of the Premises to the extent then unpaid, and to all of Seller’s rights in such proceeding, but without any reduction in the Purchase Price. Seller will not settle any condemnation or eminent domain or any award or payment in connection with a change in grade of any street, road, highway or

- 12 -

avenue in respect of or in connection with the Premises without obtaining Buyer’s prior consent in each case, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

14. DEFAULT.

(a) If the sale and purchase of the Premises contemplated by this Agreement is not consummated on account of Seller’s default hereunder, and such default is not cured within fifteen (15) days following Seller’s receipt of notice (or, with respect to any non-monetary default, such longer period of time as is necessary to cure such default if Seller commences to cure within the initial fifteen (15) day period and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion), then Buyer may (i) waive the condition and proceed to Closing, (ii) seek specific performance from Seller, or (iii) terminate this Agreement by notice to Seller and receive from Seller the reimbursement for any and all reasonable expenses actually incurred by Buyer in connection with this Agreement, including reasonable attorneys fees, the costs of title examination, and expenses in connection with Buyer’s Studies, which reimbursement shall in no event exceed the aggregate sum of Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000.00), as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, and thereafter the Deposit shall be refunded to Buyer, and upon such payment and refund, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and neither party hereto shall have any further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder other than those arising under any section which expressly provides that it shall survive the termination of this Agreement. As a condition precedent to Buyer exercising any right to bring an action for specific performance as the result of Seller’s default hereunder, Buyer must commence such action within ninety (90) days after: (x) the occurrence of such default; or (y) the expiration of any applicable time period applicable to such default without a cure having been effectuated, whichever is later. Buyer agrees that its failure timely to commence such an action for specific performance within such ninety (90) day period shall be deemed a waiver by it of its right to commence such an action.

(b) If the sale and purchase of the Premises contemplated by this Agreement is not consummated on account of Buyer’s default hereunder and such default is not cured within fifteen (15) days following Buyer’s receipt of notice (or, with respect to any non-monetary default, such longer period of time as is necessary to cure such default if Buyer commences to cure within the initial fifteen (15) day period and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion), then in that case, the Deposit and such further sum or sums of money as may be paid on account hereof by Buyer or as consideration for any extension or amendment hereof may, at the sole and exclusive option of Seller, be paid to and retained by Seller as liquidated damages and not as a penalty as Seller’s sole remedy hereunder; subject, however, to the provisions of any indemnity, defense and hold harmless provisions of this Agreement which, by their terms, specifically survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement, and the delivery of those items referenced in Section 4 relating to the performance by Buyer of its due diligence rights hereunder. Buyer and Seller further agree that the foregoing right to receive the Deposit shall not constitute or be credited on account of any indemnification obligations of Buyer pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, which indemnification obligations shall survive any cancellation or termination of this Agreement and the application of the Deposit under this Section 14(b).

- 13 -

(c) If Closing cannot occur for a failure of any condition precedent that is not a default by Buyer or Seller, which is not waived by the party hereto benefiting from the condition precedent, then either party hereto may terminate this Agreement by notice to the other, whereupon the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, and thereafter this Agreement shall terminate and neither party to this Agreement shall have any further rights, liabilities or obligations hereunder other than any arising under any section which expressly provides that it shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

15. SELLER’S WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS. Seller represents and warrants to Buyer solely as to the following matters, each of which is warranted to be true and correct as of the Effective Date and shall, as a condition to Buyer’s obligations hereunder, continue to be true and correct in all material respects on the Closing Date:

- 18 -

of the parties hereto under this Section 20 shall survive Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

21. ESCROW.

(a) Seller and Buyer hereby designate the Title Company as “Escrow Agent” to receive and hold the Deposit, and Escrow Agent agrees to act in such capacity subject to the provisions of this Section 21.

Any interest which accrues on the Deposit shall be deemed to be part of the Deposit and disposed with the Deposit in accordance with this Section 21.

(b) On receipt by Escrow Agent of a statement executed by Buyer prior to, on or after the Closing Date, that this Agreement has been terminated by Buyer as of right or because of a default by Seller under this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall within five (5) days thereafter deliver a copy of said statement to Seller in accordance with Section 17 and return the Deposit to Buyer on the tenth (10^th) day after receipt by Escrow Agent of said statement unless Escrow Agent, prior to such date, receives from Seller a statement contesting the accuracy of Buyer’s statement and demanding retention of the Deposit by Escrow Agent.

(e) Upon delivery of the Deposit to either Seller, Buyer or a court of competent jurisdiction under and pursuant to the provisions of this Section 21, Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all liability, responsibility or obligation with respect to or arising out of the Deposit and any and all of its obligations arising therefrom.

(f) The Escrow Agent is executing this Agreement for the sole purpose of agreeing to act as such in accordance with the terms of this Section 21.

- 19 -

(g) The provisions of this Section 21 shall survive Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

22. WAIVER. The failure to enforce any particular provision of this Agreement on any particular occasion shall not be deemed a waiver by either party hereto of any of its rights hereunder, nor shall it be deemed to be a waiver of subsequent or continuing breaches of that provision, unless such waiver be expressed in a writing signed by the party hereto to be bound.

23. DATE FOR PERFORMANCE. If the time period by which any right, option or election provided under this Agreement must be exercised, or by which any act required hereunder must be performed, or by which the Closing must be held, expires on a Saturday, Sunday, or a national bank holiday, then such time period will be automatically extended through the close of business on the next following business day.

24. FURTHER ASSURANCES. The parties agree that they will each take such steps and execute such documents as may be reasonably required by the other party hereto to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement.

25. SEVERABILITY. In the event any provision or portion of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such holding will not affect the remainder of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect to the same extent as would have been the case had such invalid or unenforceable provision or portion never been a part of this Agreement.

26. RECORDING. Seller and Buyer each agrees that neither this Agreement nor any memorandum or notice hereof shall be recorded. If Buyer breaches the foregoing provision, this Agreement shall, at Seller’s election, terminate, and Seller shall retain the Deposit. Buyer hereby irrevocably appoints Seller as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, for the purpose of executing and recording such documents and performing such other acts as may be necessary to terminate any recording or filing of this Agreement in violation of this Section 26. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may file a notice of pendency against the Premises following a default hereunder by Seller.

27. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Buyer and Seller, their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and permitted assigns, and shall include the singular, plural, masculine, feminine or neuter as required by context.

The terms “include,” “including” and words of similar import shall be construed as if followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The use in this Agreement of the words “such as” and “including” shall not be deemed to limit the generality of the term or clause to which it has reference, whether or not non-limiting language (such as import) is used with

- 20 -

reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that would reasonably fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter.

30. AMENDMENT. No amendment of or modification to this Agreement of any kind whatsoever shall be made or claimed by Seller or Buyer, and no notice of any extension, change, modification or amendment made or claimed by Seller or Buyer (except with respect to permitted unilateral waivers) shall have any force or be of any effect whatsoever unless the same is in writing and signed by Seller and Buyer.

C. The Agreement provides that Good Mac shall have until September 15, 2004 (being the Diligence Completion Date thereunder) to complete certain physical and environmental testing on the Property as more fully set forth in Section 4 of the Agreement.

D. Except for the Asbestos Studies (as defined below), Good Mac has completed all Buyer’s Studies (including any Phase I ESA and/or any Phase II ESA) which it has deemed either necessary or desirable with respect to the Property.

E. Good Mac has advised K&S that Buyer’s Studies (including any Phase I ESA and/or any Phase II ESA, but exclusive of the Asbestos Studies) have not disclosed (i) the presence of any Identified Contamination on the Property other than evidence of the presence of asbestos containing materials which shall be further investigated by Good Mac as part of the Asbestos Studies, (ii) any Contaminants on the Property in such concentrations and in such locations that it could lead to the reasonable determination that the Contaminants had migrated from the Property to the Adjacent Property in amounts and concentrations sufficient to be classified as Identified Contamination, or (iii) any other condition that, in the opinion of Good Mac, would interfere with the suitability or feasibility of Good Mac’s use of the Property.

F. Good Mac and K&S now desire to amend the Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Amendment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of ten ($10.00) dollars and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as follows:

1. The Diligence Completion Date shall be extended until 11:59 P.M. (“local time”) on September 29, 2004 (the “Modified Diligence Completion Date”) for the sole and limited purpose of permitting Good Mac, at its sole cost and expense, to inspect and/or cause one or more surveyors, attorneys, engineers, architects, environmental consultants and/or other experts of Good Mac’s choice to inspect and examine any buildings located on the Property for asbestos or asbestos containing materials (the “Asbestos Studies”).

2. Good Mac acknowledges and agrees that (i) any Phase I ESA and/or any Phase II ESA which Good Mac has caused to be conducted did not disclose the presence of Identified Contamination other than evidence of the presence of asbestos containing materials which shall be further investigated by Good Mac as part of the Asbestos Studies, or any Contaminants that may have migrated onto the Adjacent Property in amounts and concentrations that such Contaminants, if they had in fact migrated to the Adjacent Property, would be found on the Adjacent Property in amounts and concentrations sufficient to be classified as Identified Contamination, (ii) Good Mac’s environmental due diligence, to the extent and scope Good Mac deemed necessary and desirable, exclusive of the Asbestos Studies, is satisfied and completed, and (iii) Buyer’s Studies (other than the Asbestos Studies which Good Mac may elect to undertake) have not revealed any condition that, in the opinion of Good Mac would interfere with the suitability or feasibility of Good Mac’s use of the Property.

3. As of the date of this Amendment, except for matters pertaining to any Asbestos Studies that Good Mac may elect to undertake, Good Mac is fully satisfied with the results of Buyer’s Studies (including any Phase I ESA and/or Phase II ESA).

4. If at any time prior to the Modified Diligence Completion Date the Asbestos Studies reveal a condition that, in the opinion of the Good Mac, would interfere with the suitability or feasibility of Good Mac’s use of the Property, then Good Mac, upon notice to K&S delivered no later than the Modified Diligence Completion Date, shall have the option of proposing a Remediation Plan (as to the Asbestos Studies only) in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 4(a)(i) of the Agreement (including the termination rights contained in such Section 4(a)(i)). In no event shall Good Mac propose a Remediation Plan any later than the Modified Diligence Completion Date.

5. The Asbestos Studies shall conform, and be subject to, those restrictions, indemnities and standards set forth in Section 4(d) of the Agreement.

6. Good Mac and K&S acknowledge and agree that the Lease Negotiation Period shall be extended until the close of business on October 8, 2004.
