Seller owns fee title to the Land, the Building and such other Improvements, subject to all matters of record and such other matters as are referred to or provided for in this Agreement.
B. Seller desires to sell the Property to the Purchaser, and Purchaser desires to purchase the Property from Seller, all upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
A G R E E M E N T
NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Seller and Purchaser hereby agree as follows:
1. AGREEMENT TO SELL
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and for the consideration herein set forth, Seller agrees to sell and transfer, and Purchaser agrees to purchase and acquire all of Seller’s right, title, and interest in and to the following: (i) the Property; (ii) all other Improvements located thereon; and (iii) any and all easements, rights of access and appurtenances, whether or not of record, relating to the Property, to the extent reasonably required for the lawful use, enjoyment, occupancy or operation of the Building. Seller has provided Purchaser with a copy of the shell plans existing on the Effective Date with the agreement by Purchaser that said shell plans shall not be used by Purchaser for any other project and/or development by Purchaser and/or by any successor in interest of Purchaser.

2.1 Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Property (the “Purchase Price”) is Twenty-One Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($21,500,000.00).
1 | Initial: /S/ JA; RP; VP |
2.2 Escrow and Payment. Within three (3) business days following the Effective Date, Seller and Purchaser shall deliver a true and complete copy of this Agreement to Escrow Holder, which shall establish an escrow for the purchase and sale transaction set forth herein. The parties agree to execute and deliver to Chicago Title Company at 000 X. Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (“Escrow Holder”) prior to Closing their respective and appropriate escrow instructions and authority documents as shall be reasonably required to close the purchase and sale transaction contemplated in this Agreement, provided that any such escrow instructions shall be fully consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.
Payment of the Purchase Price is to be made in U.S. Dollars cash or immediately available funds as follows:
(a) Upon the execution of this Agreement, Purchaser shall pay directly to Seller a Two Hundred Fifteen Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($215,000.00) non-refundable deposit (the “Deposit”). Said Deposit is non-refundable to Purchaser except due to a failure of an express condition of closing in favor of Purchaser which is set forth in Section 5.3(A) (Purchaser’s Closing Conditions). If escrow closes, the Deposit will be applied to the Purchase Price at Closing (as defined below). In the event of termination of this Agreement prior to the Closing due to a failure of an express condition of closing in favor of Purchaser which is set forth in Section 5.3(A) (Purchaser’s Closing Conditions) and provided Purchaser is not in default of this Agreement, the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser unless Purchaser otherwise fails to complete the Purchase of the Property in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (a “Purchaser Default”).
(b) The balance of the Purchase Price, after any additional adjustments due to any prorations or debits and credits expressly provided for in this Agreement, will be paid by Purchaser at Closing in U.S. Dollars by wire transfer of immediately available good funds.
2.3 Closing. Payment of the balance of the Purchase Price and the closing of the purchase and sale of the Property hereunder (the “Closing”) will take place on April 26, 2013 or such earlier date as may be mutually agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser (the “Closing Date” and/or “Close of Escrow”). Either Purchaser or Seller shall have the option of extending the Closing Date for a reasonable period of time, in any such instance not exceeding an aggregate of ten (10) days for Purchaser and ten (10) days for Seller, in order to satisfy a condition to Closing. The Closing shall take place at the offices of Escrow Holder on the Closing Date.
2.4 Purchaser’s Contingency. If Purchaser is unable to obtain a satisfactory commitment for title insurance (“Title Commitment”) by 5:00 p.m. PST on April 23, 2013 (the “Contingency Period”), Purchaser may terminate this Agreement provided it notifies Seller in writing of its election to so terminate the Agreement by 5:00 p.m. PST on April 23, 2013. If Purchaser does not notify Seller, in writing, prior to 5:00 p.m. PST on April 23, 2013 of its intent to terminate this Agreement, Purchaser shall be considered to have waived its contingency, and Purchaser shall be obligated to Close Escrow pursuant to this Agreement. If Purchaser so notifies Seller of its intent to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall be considered null and void and Purchaser and Seller shall have no further obligation hereunder except Purchaser’s obligations under Sections 4.5 (Independent Investigation by Purchaser) and 10.8 (Brokers) and the non-refundable Deposit shall be retained by Seller as compensation for its agreement to hold said Property off the market since February 27, 2013.

5.3(A) Purchaser’s Closing Conditions. Without limiting any conditions precedent set forth in other express provisions of this Agreement, each of the following shall be a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligation to close the purchase of the Property from Seller on the Closing Date, and any failure of any such condition shall be waivable only by Purchaser. In the event that any condition of Closing set forth below is not satisfied prior to Closing, and subject to Seller’s right to extend the Closing Date as set forth in Section 2.3 (Closing), Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to Seller not later than 5:00 p.m. PST on the last business day before the Closing Date, in which event this Agreement shall terminate, and neither party shall have any further obligation or liability to the other under this Agreement, except that Purchaser’s indemnification obligations under Sections 4.5 (Independent Investigation by Purchaser) and 10.8 (Brokers) shall survive such termination. In the event that prior to Closing Purchaser discovers that any condition of Closing has not been satisfied, but Purchaser nevertheless proceeds to close escrow, Purchaser shall be deemed to have unconditionally waived such condition of Closing, and following the Closing Seller shall in no event have any liability or obligation to Purchaser with respect to such condition of Closing.
7 | Initial: /S/ JA; RP; VP |
(i) Delivery by Seller to Escrow Holder of an executed Grant Deed substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, it being agreed that Purchaser shall acquire the Property subject to all Permitted Exceptions whether or not such limitation is expressly set forth in the Grant Deed.

(iv) Title to the Property shall not be subject to any matter or exception which is not a Permitted Exception; provided that the failure or refusal of the Title Company to issue a title policy to Purchaser at Closing shall not be deemed to relieve Purchaser of its obligation to close escrow and purchase the Property unless the sole reason for such failure or refusal is Seller’s failure to make the deliveries under Paragraph 5.3(A)(ii) above or the existence of a matter or exception affecting title (a “New Title Matter”) that (1) first arose after the Effective Date, and (2) was not known to Purchaser at the end of the Contingency Period, and (3) was created by or is otherwise attributable to the act of Seller, and (4) is of a nature that it would reasonably be expected to materially interfere with or impair the current use of the Property or cause a material reduction in the value of the Property; and provided that in no event shall Seller be obligated to cure or remedy any such New Title Matter, or be considered to be in default hereunder on account of any such New Title Matter, except that Seller shall be obligated to pay and remove at Closing any New Title Matter which is a monetary lien against the Property created by Seller.
(v) In the event that, prior to the Close of Escrow, any improvements on the Property (if any), or any material part thereof (if any), are destroyed or materially damaged, Purchaser shall be obligated to close escrow without any adjustment to the Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser Seller’s right to any net insurance proceeds that are received by Seller on account of such damage or destruction.

The provisions of this Paragraph 5.3(A)(vi) shall survive the Close of Escrow.
(vii) Seller must have executed and delivered to Escrow Holder (a) the Lease and (b) the Memorandum of Lease (Escrow Holder will release to Seller and Purchaser said Lease at the Close of Escrow and shall provide Seller with a copy of the recorded Memorandum of Lease thereafter).
5.3(B) Seller’s Closing Conditions. Without limiting any conditions precedent set forth in other express provisions of this Agreement, each of the following shall be a condition precedent to Seller’s obligation to close the sale of the Property to Purchaser on the Closing Date, and any failure of any such condition shall be waivable only by Seller. In the event that any condition of Closing set forth below is not satisfied at or prior to Closing, and subject to Purchaser’s right to extend the Closing Date as set forth in Section 2.3 (Closing), Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Purchaser not later than 10:00 a.m. PST on the Closing Date.

If the sale of the Property contemplated by this Agreement is not consummated due to a default on the part of Seller, Purchaser shall have the right to elect, as its sole remedy under this Agreement to terminate this Agreement. In no event, however, shall Purchaser be entitled to recover damages of any type or nature from Seller. Following such termination, both parties shall thereafter be relieved of and released from any further liability hereunder, provided, however, that Purchaser’s indemnification obligations provided in Sections 4.5 (Independent Investigation by Purchaser) and 10.8 (Brokers) below shall survive any such termination of this Agreement.
9. CONDITIONS TO INDEMNIFICATION
Whenever a party (the “Indemnifying Party”) is required under this Agreement to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other party (the “Indemnified Party”), the following shall apply: (a) the Indemnified Party must give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of the claim(s) as to which indemnification is requested; (b) the Indemnified Party must reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense or settlement of any such claim(s); and (c) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to control the defense or settlement of any claim(s) as to which it is providing indemnification.

10.2 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of such provision to any party or circumstances shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such provision to such person or circumstances, other than those as to which it is so determined invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision hereof shall be valid and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
10.3 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of laws that might otherwise cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
10.4 Assignment. Purchaser may not assign, either voluntarily or by operation of law, all or any portion of this Agreement, any rights or obligations or Purchaser under this Agreement, or any interest of Purchaser under this Agreement, without the express written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld provided the original Purchaser and assignee under this Agreement remain liable for all the terms and conditions of this Agreement that occur and/or accrue through the Close of Escrow and thereafter. For purposes of this Section 10.4, any direct or indirect transfer or encumbrance of any ownership interest in Purchaser at any ownership tier (except to the extent that any such ownership interest is publicly held and traded on an established stock exchange), whether voluntary or by operation of law, and any change in control of Purchaser, whether voluntary or by operation of law, shall each be deemed to constitute an assignment by Purchaser. A “change in control” shall be deemed to include any such direct or indirect transfer or encumbrance of any ownership interest in Purchaser referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, as well as the entering into by Purchaser or by the holder of any such ownership interest in Purchaser of any contractual agreement or understanding whereby any person or entity which is not a holder of an ownership interest in Purchaser (at an ownership tier) on the day immediately preceding the Effective Date obtains any legal or functional right to direct the business or financial operations, or business or financial policies or practices, of Purchaser.
10.5 Successors Bound. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.4 (Assignment), this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Purchaser and Seller and their respective successors and assigns.
10.6 Captions. The captions and headings in this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for reference and in no way define, limit or describe the scope of this Agreement or the scope or content of any of its provisions.
10.7 Attorneys’ Fees. If either party hereto fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or if any dispute arises between the parties hereto concerning the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement, then the defaulting party or the party not prevailing in such dispute, as the case may be, shall pay any and all costs and expenses incurred by the other party on account of such default and/or in enforcing or establishing its rights hereunder, including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Any such attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by either party in enforcing a judgment in its favor under this Agreement shall be recoverable separately from and in addition to any other amount included in such judgment, and such attorneys’ fees obligation is intended to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and to survive and not be merged into any such judgment.
