check, drawn on a bank which is a member of the New York City Clearinghouse
Association ("Acceptable Check") payable to the order of Seller (or as otherwise
directed by Seller) without intervening endorsement, or by wire transfer of
immediately available federal funds to an account in a bank in accordance with
wire transfer instructions furnished by Seller prior to the Closing Date, or by

exceptions to title set forth on Exhibit B ("Permitted Exceptions") and the
leases on Exhibit C which shall be assigned to Purchaser. The leases on Exhibit
C are referred to herein as the Leases (the "Leases"). Any exceptions to title
set forth in Exhibit B and the Leases may be omitted from the Deed but shall

3.2. On the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser fee simple
title and Purchaser shall accept such title as a reputable title company
licensed to do business in the State of New York (the "Title Company") is
willing to approve and insure, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions set

allowed to Purchaser out of the Purchase Price. If on the Closing Date there are
any other liens or encumbrances which Seller is obligated to pay or discharge in
order to convey to Purchaser such title as is herein provided to be conveyed,
Seller may use any portion of the Purchase Price to satisfy the same, provided:
(a) Seller shall deliver to Purchaser at the closing of title,

by the Title Company, for the cost of recording or filing said
instruments; or
(b) Seller, having made arrangements with the Title Company,
shall deposit with said company sufficient monies acceptable to the Title
Company to ensure the obtaining and the recording of such satisfactions.
Purchaser, if request is made within a reasonable time prior to the
Closing Date, agrees to provide at Closing separate wire transfer and/or
Acceptable Checks as requested, aggregating the amount of the Purchase
Price set forth in Article 2.1 hereof, to facilitate the satisfaction of
any such liens or encumbrances. The existence of any such liens or
encumbrances shall not be deemed objections to title if Seller shall
comply with the foregoing requirements and the Title Company shall agree
to insure the Purchaser against collection of such liens and/or
encumbrances, without additional cost to Purchaser.
3.4. Purchaser agrees to make an application to Title Company
promptly after the execution of this Agreement for a full title search and
examination upon the Premises, and Purchaser further agrees that Purchaser will
cause to be delivered to Seller's counsel a copy of the title report and
examination of such Title Company. At least ten (10) days prior to the scheduled
Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the title re-examined by the Title Company
and shall deliver to Seller's counsel a copy of the Title Company's updated
title report with a notice of liens, encumbrances or other defects of title
subject to which Purchase is unwilling to accept title.
2
3.5. (a) Seller agrees to satisfy all mortgages on the Premises. Any
judgement, lien, encumbrance or objection to which Seller's title to the
Premises is subject on the Closing Date or any other valid ground which
Purchaser may then have for refusing to close this transaction other than (i)
mortgages (which Seller is obligated to satisfy), (ii) those Permitted
Exceptions subject to which Purchaser is obligated to accept title hereunder and
(iii) the Leases, are referred to herein as "Objectionable Liens." If on the
Closing Date Seller's title to the Premises is subject to any Objectionable
Liens and Purchaser shall be unwilling to waive the same and close Seller shall
have the right, at Seller's sole election to either: (a) take such action as
Seller shall deem advisable to remove, remedy or comply with such Objectionable
Liens and Seller is obligated to spend up to two hundred fifty thousand
($250,000) dollars (the "Maximum Expense") to remove, remedy or comply with such
Objectionable Liens except Seller shall not be obligated to commence any action
or proceeding to cure any such defect or to expend more than the Maximum Expense
to remove any Objectionable Liens, or (b) to cancel this Agreement, provided
that if Seller notifies Purchaser of its election to cancel this Agreement,
Purchaser shall have the right to waive such Objectionable Liens and to close
this transaction, in which event Purchaser shall be given a credit equal to the
reasonably estimated cost of removing, remedying or complying with such
Objectionable Liens, not to exceed $250,000, less such amount as Seller may have
spent in attempting to remove, remedy or comply with such Objectionable Liens.
In the event of Seller's election to take action to remove, remedy or comply
with such Objectionable Liens, Seller shall be entitled to one or more
adjournments of the Closing Date for one or more periods to a date not later
than the closing date of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase
Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2005, by and among Xxxxx Industries,
Incorporated, Air Industries Machining, Corp., Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx,
Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") as amended
or may be amended. If for any reason whatsoever Seller shall not have succeeded
in removing, remedying or complying with such Objectionable Liens at the
expiration of such adjournments, or at such time prior thereto as Seller
determines that it will not be able to satisfy same, Seller shall give Purchaser
notice thereof and Purchaser shall have five (5) business days from the delivery
of such notice in accordance with the terms hereof to elect by notice to Seller
to purchase the Premises subject to such Objectionable Liens with a credit as
provided above. If Purchaser shall still be unwilling to waive the same and to
close this transaction without abatement of the Purchase Price or allowance of
any kind other than as provided above, this Agreement shall be deemed to be
canceled. In the event of the cancellation of this Agreement under any of the
circumstances referred to and as provided in this Article 3.5, this Agreement
shall cease, terminate and come to an end, and (except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement), neither party hereto shall have any rights,
obligations or liabilities against or to the other, except that Purchaser shall
be entitled to reimbursement for the net amount charged Purchaser by the Title
Company for a title examination without issuance of a policy and the net cost to
Purchaser of a survey for the Premises (said reimbursable items are herein
referred to as "Purchaser's Title and Survey Costs"). In no event shall Seller
be required to, and nothing herein contained shall obligate Seller to, expend
any money in excess of two hundred fifty thousand ($250,000) dollars in the
aggregate or to bring any action or proceeding or otherwise incur any costs or
expenses to cure any purported defect or objection or to fulfill any condition
or to render or deliver title to the Premises to Purchaser as herein provided,
except as set forth in this Section.
3
(b) Other than as set forth in Schedule 4.27 to the Stock Purchase
Agreement, all notes or notices of violation of law or governmental advances,
orders or requirements which were noted or issued prior to the date of this
Agreement by any governmental department, agency or bureau having jurisdiction
as to conditions affecting the Premises and all liens which have attached to the
Premises prior to the date hereof shall be the obligations of Seller to remove.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the reasonable cost of the removal of the
Objectionable Liens and violations, in the aggregate, exceeds two hundred fifty
thousand ($250,000) dollars less such amount as Seller may expend or credit to
Purchaser in respect of Objectionable Liens as provided in Section 3.5(a) (such
amount being referred to as the "Remainder"), then Seller shall have the right
to cancel this Agreement, provided that if Seller notifies Purchaser of its
election to cancel this Agreement, Purchaser shall have the right to waive such
violations and liens, and to close this transaction, in which event Purchaser
shall be given a credit equal to the Remainder.
In no event shall the aggregate amount which Seller is obligated to expend
or credit to Purchaser in respect of Objectionable Liens pursuant to Section
3.5(a) and violations pursuant to this Section 3.5(b) exceed two hundred fifty
thousand ($250,000) dollars.
3.6. Corporate franchise or business taxes owing to municipal,
county or state governments by any corporation in the chain of title of the
Premises, or any transfer, inheritance, estate, dissolution, license or similar
taxes, charges or liens not excepted in this Agreement, shall not constitute an
objection to title, and Purchaser shall take title subject to the same provided
that the Title Company will agree to affirmatively insure at no additional cost
to Purchaser that said taxes or other items will not be collected out of the
Premises.
4. Adjustments.
4.1. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all
apportionments shall be made in accordance with the "Customs in Respect to Title
Closings" adopted by the Real Estate Board of New York, Inc. The following are
to be apportioned as of midnight of the day immediately prior to the Closing
Date:
(a) real estate taxes, on the basis of the fiscal tax year for
which assessed;
(b) water and sewer rents and/or charges on the basis of the
fiscal year for which assessed;
(c) water meter and sewer rent meter charges in accordance
with the amounts fixed with respect thereto in a meter reading made as of
a date not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, except
that if such reading cannot with reasonable efforts be obtained by such
date, then the unfixed water meter and sewer charges, if any, for any
intervening period shall be apportioned on the basis of the last reading
therefor;
(d) rents and additional rents under the Leases and interest,
if any, payable in respect of the deposits under the Leases which are
delivered to Purchaser;

(e) utilities;
(f) charges payable under transferable Service Contracts, if

(g) fuel, if any, to the extent not payable by tenants under
the Leases.
4.2. If the Closing shall occur before a tax rate is fixed, the
apportionment of taxes shall be upon the basis of the tax rate for the next
preceding year applied to the latest assessed valuation and the parties shall
adjust post-closing upon receipt of the tax xxxx.
4.3. If, on the Closing 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 purpose 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 payable by Seller. If the first
installment shall be due following the Closing then Purchaser shall assume the
entire obligation without abatement.
4.4. In the event the apportionments as provided in this Article,
when computed result in a payment due Seller, then such payment shall be made at
the Closing by Acceptable Check. If such apportionment results in a credit to
Purchaser, the cash portion of the Purchase Price due at Closing shall be
reduced by the amount of such credit.
4.5. As to any rent arrears for periods preceding the Closing, and
any amounts paid by the Tenants under the Leases in respect of water and sewer
rents and charges, water meter and sewer rent meter charges, utilities and real
estate and vault taxes, accruing prior to the Closing, provided the applicable
Tenant is otherwise current in respect of all amounts due under its Lease,
Purchaser shall receive the same as a trust fund for remission to Seller in
payment of the Tenants' arrears, provided Purchaser shall have no obligation to
seek to collect the same on behalf of Seller. The provisions of this Article
shall survive the Closing.

without limitation, to pay the Purchase Price as provided in this Agreement or

9
Purchaser. Purchaser shall keep the Premises free and clear of any liens and
will indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from all claims and liabilities
asserted against Seller as a result of any such entry by Purchaser, its agents,
employees or representatives. If any inspection or test disturbs the Premises,
Purchaser will restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as
existed prior to any such inspection or test. Purchaser and its agents,
employees and representatives shall have a continuing right of reasonable access
to the Premises during the pendency of this Agreement for the purpose of

In the course of its investigations, Purchaser may make inquiries to third
parties, including, without limitation, the tenant or tenants, the property
manager, if any, and municipal, local and other government officials and
representatives, and Seller consents to such inquiries. The obligations of the
Purchaser under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Agreement.
12. Representations. Warranties and Covenants.

made and does not make any representations or warranties as to the physical
condition, rents, leases, income, expenses, financing and/or tax status,
operations, zoning or legality of occupancy of the Premises, status of title or
any other matter or thing affecting or relating to the Premises, except as
herein specifically set forth, and Purchaser hereby expressly acknowledges and
represents that no such representations or warranties have been made and (b)
Purchaser further agrees to take the Premises "as is" in its present physical
condition and subject to reasonable use, wear, tear and normal depreciation
between the date hereof and the Closing Date. Seller shall not be liable or
bound in any way for any verbal or written statements, representations, or
information pertaining to the Premises furnished by any real estate broker or
agent thereof or any agent or employee of Seller, or any other person. It is
understood and agreed that all prior and contemporaneous representations,
statements, understandings and agreements, oral or written, between the parties
are merged in this Agreement, which alone fully and completely expresses their
Agreement, and that the same is entered into after full investigation, neither
party relying on any statement or representation or warranty not embodied in
this Agreement made by the other.

authorized and properly executed and constitutes, or will constitute, as
appropriate, the valid and binding obligation of Seller, enforceable in

adversely affect Purchaser upon its purchase of the Premises;
(c) All of Seller's contractors, subcontractors, suppliers,
architects, engineers, brokers and others who have performed services or
labor or have supplied materials in connection with Seller's development,
ownership, or management of the Premises have been paid in full and all

giving of notice, or both, could mature into liens) have been satisfied
and released;

complete copies of the Leases and all amendments and guarantees. There are

Seller has not received written notice and has no knowledge of any
subletting or assignment by tenant. To Seller's knowledge, except as
herein disclosed, no tenants have asserted nor are there any defenses or

exists on the part of any tenant, except for (i) the payment of rent
arrears in the aggregate amount of $215,419.75 for the months of February
2005 through November 2005 and (ii) the payment of real estate taxes in
the aggregate amount of $96,070.50 plus interest and penalties, if any;
(e) Simultaneously with the closing of the transaction
contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, the parties agree to arrange

Premises or the use thereof violates any governmental law or regulation or
any covenants or restrictions encumbering the Premises other than those

the Improvements; or (iii) from any insurance company or underwriter of
any defect that would materially adversely affect the insurability of the
Premises or cause an increase in insurance premiums;

Agreement, (i) the Seller is in compliance with all applicable
Environmental Laws (capitalized terms used but not defined in this Section
(g) have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Stock Purchase Agreement);
(ii) the Seller has not transported from, stored or disposed of any
Hazardous Materials from or upon the Premises in contravention of

the Premises other than the Leases and the matters set forth in Schedule B
hereto;
(i) The certificate of occupancy included in the title report

knowledge. Seller has not taken any actions to amend, modify or cancel
such certificate of occupancy, nor has Seller taken any actions which
would require Seller to obtain a certificate of occupancy for the
Premises;

litigation or other action related to the Premises;

shall be deemed to be made at and as of the date hereof and as of the Closing
Date. If any of the material warranties and representations of Seller contained
herein shall on the Closing Date be untrue (other than those rendered inaccurate
by transactions, events or facts contemplated hereby), and if Purchaser shall be
unwilling to waive same and to close this transaction without abatement of the
Purchase Price or allowance of any kind, then Purchaser's sole remedy shall be
to terminate this Agreement within thirty (30) days after discovering that same
was so untrue. In the event of such termination, this Agreement shall cease,
terminate and come to an end, and neither party hereto shall have any rights,
obligations or liabilities against or to the other, except that Purchaser shall
be entitled to the return of the Down Payment and except as set forth in Article
11, and any other provision of this Agreement which explicitly survives the
termination or cancellation hereof.
12.5. In all cases in this Agreement where Seller represents that it
does not have "knowledge" of any thing, occurrence or events, the "knowledge" as
to which such representation is made shall be actual knowledge and not
constructive knowledge.

Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller that:
(a) Purchaser has been duly organized and is validly existing
as a corporation in good standing in the State of Delaware, and on the
Closing Date will be qualified to do business in the state in which the
Premises are located. Purchaser has the full right and authority and has
obtained any and all consents required to enter into this Agreement and to
consummate or cause to be consummated the transactions contemplated
hereby. This Agreement has been, and all of the documents to be delivered
by Purchaser at the Closing will be, authorized and properly executed and
constitutes, or will constitute, as appropriate, the valid and binding
obligation of Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their terms; and
(b) Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller that
this Agreement has been duly authorized and executed on behalf of
Purchaser, and constitutes the valid and binding agreement of Purchaser,
enforceable in accordance with its terms; and that neither the execution
and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the sale provided
for herein will constitute a violation or breach by Purchaser of any
provision of any agreement or other instrument to which Purchaser is a
party or to which Purchaser may be subject although not a party, or will
result in or constitute a violation or breach of any judgment, order,
writ, injunction or decree issued against Purchaser of which Purchaser has
knowledge.
13. Expenses.
13.1. (a) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver a certified or
official bank check to the order of the recording officer of the county in which
the Deed is to be recorded for the amount of the documentary stamps to be
affixed thereto in accordance with Article 31 of the Tax Law of the State of New
York. At Seller's option, Purchaser shall pay all of the same and shall receive
a credit for such amount on account of the cash portion of the Purchaser Price
due at Closing.
(b) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver a certified or
official bank check to the order of the appropriate officers in payment of the
applicable real property transfer taxes together with the NY State TP 584
required by the applicable regulations duly signed and sworn to by Seller.
Purchaser agrees to duly execute said return, have duly sworn, and to cause said
return and check to be delivered to the appropriate official. At Seller's
option, Purchaser shall pay all of the same and receive a credit for such amount
on account of the cash portion of the Purchase Price due at Closing.
(c) Seller and Purchaser each hereby agree to defend and
indemnify the other from all costs and liabilities (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements) for failure to make the foregoing payments
required pursuant to this Article at or following Closing. Such obligation and
indemnity shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Deed.
13
14. Fire or Other Casualty; Condemnation.
14.1. Seller agrees to maintain the property insurance policy or
policies in respect of the Premises, including fire and extended coverage and to
give Purchaser reasonably prompt notice of any fire or other casualty occurring
at the Premises of which Seller obtains knowledge, between the date hereof and
the date of the Closing, or of any actual or threatened in writing condemnation
of all or any party of the Premises of which Seller obtains knowledge.
14.2. If prior to the Closing there shall occur damage to the
Premises caused by fire or other casualty which would (i) cost two hundred fifty
thousand ($250,000) dollars or more to repair, as reasonably determined by an
engineer selected by Seller and reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser or (ii)
materially interfere with the operation of the Premises, then Purchaser may
elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice given to Seller within ten
(10) days after Seller has given Purchaser the notice referred to in Section
12.1 hereof, or at the Closing, whichever is earlier. If prior to the Closing
there shall be a taking by condemnation of any portion of the Premises then
Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement by written notice given to
Seller within ten (10) days after Seller has given Purchaser the notice referred
to in Section 12.1 hereof, or at the Closing, whichever is earlier. If this
Agreement is terminated pursuant to either of the preceding sentences, Seller
shall promptly pay to Purchaser Purchaser's title and survey costs, if any, and
this Agreement shall thereupon be deemed terminated and of no further force or
effect, and neither party hereto shall thereupon have any further obligation to
the other, except that the provisions of Article 7 hereof shall survive such
termination. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement, then the
Closing shall take place as herein provided, without abatement of the Purchase
Price: provided, however, Purchaser shall be entitled to receive any insurance
proceeds otherwise due Seller as a result of the damage to the Premises (whether
received before or after Closing) or the proceeds of any condemnation award to
the extent payable before or after the Closing, less any amounts (i) actually
and reasonably expended or incurred by the Seller in adjusting any insurance
claim or negotiating and/or obtaining any condemnation award (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) and/or (ii) theretofore
actually and reasonably incurred or expended by or for the account of the Seller
for the cost of any restoration or emergency repairs made by or on behalf of
Seller, and Seller shall pay to Purchaser, or allow as a credit against the
Purchase Price, an amount equal to the net proceeds of such insurance proceeds
or condemnation award.
14.3. Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this
Article, the parties hereto shall be released from all further obligations and
liabilities hereunder, except with respect to the covenants and indemnities set
forth in Article 11 hereof and as otherwise expressly provided herein.

16.1. Seller has not instituted any proceedings to reduce taxes or
for the reduction of the assessed valuation of the Premises.

obligation on the part of Seller hereunder to be performed. Any and all
representations and warranties of Seller and Purchaser contained in this
Agreement shall not survive the Closing Date and the delivery of the Deed, and
shall be merged in the delivery of the Deed, except the representations 12.2(a),
(b) and (c) shall survive for a period of six (6) months and the representations
in Sections 12.2(d) and (g) shall survive for one year, following the Closing.
18. Assignment.
18.1. This Agreement shall apply to and bind the heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns of the respective parties. Purchaser may
not assign this Agreement or any payments made hereunder without the prior
written consent of Seller. This Agreement shall not be recorded by Purchaser and
any recordation or attempted recordation by Purchaser hereof shall be void and
shall constitute a material default of Purchaser hereunder and Seller shall be
entitled to cancel this Agreement in the event thereof. A transfer of any
interest in Purchaser shall constitute an assignment of this Agreement.
Purchaser may assign this contract to an "Affiliate" (defined below) provided
such assignee assumes all of Purchaser's obligations hereunder in writing, in
recordable form, and further provided that an original fully-executed assignment
and assumption agreement is furnished to Seller prior to Closing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may, at the Closing, assign this
Agreement to an entity which simultaneously consummates the transaction
contemplated hereby; provided, however, that such assignment shall not relieve
Purchaser of any of its obligations under this Agreement.
19. Execution by Seller.
19.1. It is expressly understood and agreed that this Agreement
shall not constitute an offer or create any rights in favor of Purchaser and
shall in no way oblige or be binding upon Seller, and this Agreement shall have
no force or effect, unless and until the same is duly executed by Seller and a
fully-executed counterpart of this Agreement is delivered by Seller to
