1. Amendment to the Purchase Agreement. As of the Effective Date, the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended or modified as follows:

In consideration of the conveyance, transfer and assignment of all of the Property to Subsidiary and the non-competition and other restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8(f) hereof, Gallagher will pay the Purchase Price. As used herein, the term “Purchase Price” shall include $40,000,000 payable as follows: (I) to Seller, cash in the amount of $38,000,000, less $2,377,000 (the “Holdback Amount”); and (II) to Escrow Agent, the Escrow Deposit.
