Buyer hereby expressly assumes all risks, liabilities, claims, damages and costs (and agrees that Seller and the Seller’s Related Parties shall not be liable for any special, direct, indirect, consequential, or other damages) resulting or arising from or related to the ownership, use, condition, development, maintenance, repair or operation of the Property, subject to Seller’s liability under Seller’s express representations and warranties contained in Section 7 below. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, and except only to the extent any Claims (defined below) arise from Seller’s express representations and warranties contained in Section 7 below, Buyer releases Seller and Seller’s Related Parties from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, judgments, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements), whether known or unknown, liquidated or contingent which Buyer or any agent, representative, affiliate, employee, director, officer, partner, member, servant, shareholder, trustee, assignee or other person or entity acting on Buyer’s behalf or otherwise related to or affiliated with Buyer may have arising from or related to any matter or thing related to or in connection with the Property, including, without limitation, the documents and information referred to in this Agreement, any construction defects, errors or omissions in the design or construction of all or any portion of the Property, any physical, environmental or other conditions relating to or affecting the Property, and the active and passive negligence of Seller or any Seller’s Related Parties in connection with the foregoing (collectively, “Claims”).

If Buyer is entitled to the return of the Deposit (i.e., Buyer terminates this transaction due to a breach by Seller of this Agreement or due to the failure of a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Property as specified in Section 10.a above), then provided the terms of Section 12.d. above have been satisfied, as evidenced by written notice from Seller to Escrow Holder, Escrow Holder shall release the Deposit to Buyer (less one-half of any escrow cancellation charges, if applicable); and

f. If Buyer is not entitled to the return of the Deposit, then Escrow Holder shall release the Deposit to Seller.

13. Costs and Expenses. The premium for the Title Policy shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 above. The escrow fees of Escrow Holder shall be shared equally by Seller and Buyer. Seller shall pay all documentary transfer taxes payable with the recordation of the Grant Deed. Buyer and Seller shall pay, respectively, Escrow Holder’s customary charges to buyers and sellers for document drafting, recording and miscellaneous charges. Buyer and Seller shall each pay their own legal and professional fees and fees of other consultants incurred in connection with this transaction. All other costs and expenses shall be allocated equally between Buyer and Seller, except the costs of performing the obligations of each party to this Agreement, which costs shall be borne solely by the party incurring such costs. The provisions of this Section 13 shall survive the Close of Escrow or a termination of this Agreement.

14. Pro-rations and Credits.

a. Real property taxes and assessments with respect to the Land based upon the latest available tax information shall be pro-rated such that Seller shall be responsible for all such taxes and assessments levied against the portion of Land owned by such entity to and including the day prior to the Close of Escrow and Buyer shall be responsible for all such taxes and assessments levied against the Land from and after the date of the Close of Escrow. If the Land is not as of the Close of Escrow assessed as separate legal parcels, the parties shall in good faith fairly allocate a pro-rata share of the property taxes of the larger tax parcel of which the Land is a part based on previous tax bills.

b. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Close of Escrow, (i) if any errors or omissions are made regarding adjustments and pro-rations as set forth above, the parties shall make the appropriate corrections promptly upon the discovery thereof, and (ii) if any estimates are made at the Close of Escrow regarding adjustments or pro-rations, the parties shall make the appropriate corrections

Page 11

promptly when accurate information becomes available. Any refunds from the County tax collector attributable to reduced real property assessments commencing as of the Close of Escrow shall be the property of Buyer. The provisions of this Section 14.b shall survive the Close of Escrow.

c. Buyer shall receive a credit through Escrow in the amount of $6,577 in consideration of which Buyer agrees to pay promptly following the Close of Escrow that same amount to the State Water Resources Control Board in satisfaction of its Invoice No. 19929, dated January 7, 2009, Facility ID 8 332766001, for Annual Waste Discharge Fees.

15. Disbursements and Other Actions by Escrow Holder. Upon the Close of Escrow, Escrow Holder shall promptly undertake all of the following in the manner indicated:

a. Escrow Holder shall cause the Grant Deed to be recorded in the Official Records of the County, together with any other documents that the parties hereto may mutually direct.

b. Escrow Holder shall hold and/or disburse all funds deposited with Escrow Holder by Buyer as follows:

i. Deduct (and disburse) all items chargeable to the account of Buyer pursuant hereto;

ii. Deduct (and disburse or credit to Buyer where appropriate) all items chargeable to the account of Seller pursuant hereto (including, without limitation, any credits and/or reimbursements to which Buyer is entitled where expressly provided in this Agreement); and

iii. Refund to Buyer any excess funds deposited by Buyer.

c. Escrow Holder shall direct the Title Company to issue the Title Policy to Buyer.

d. Escrow Holder shall deliver to Buyer and Seller, originals of the executed counterparts of the documents and instruments deposited by the parties pursuant to Section 11 hereof that are not recorded, and copies of all recorded documents; to Buyer only, the original of the Certification; and to Seller only, the originals of the Notices of Special Tax.

e. Escrow Holder shall deliver to Buyer and Seller duplicate originals or copies (as the case may be) of all documents delivered by Escrow Holder to Buyer at Closing.

f. Escrow Holder shall provide Buyer and Seller with a closing statement covering the sale of the Property to Buyer.

16. Default.

a. By Buyer. IN THE EVENT THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT CLOSE DUE TO THE DEFAULT OF BUYER, THEN SELLER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO OBTAIN AND RETAIN THE DEPOSIT AS SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, FOR SUCH DEFAULT, SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT THAT EXPRESSLY SURVIVE A TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO LIMIT SELLER’S RIGHTS OR DAMAGES UNDER ANY INDEMNITIES GIVEN BY BUYER TO SELLER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. SELLER AND BUYER HAVE DISCUSSED THE POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES TO SELLER IN

Page 12

THE EVENT THAT THE ESCROW FAILS TO CLOSE AS A RESULT OF BUYER’S DEFAULT. SELLER AND BUYER HAVE DETERMINED AND HEREBY AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE ACTUAL DAMAGES TO SELLER OCCURRING IN THE EVENT OF BUYER’S DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES, HAVING MADE DILIGENT BUT UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS TO ASCERTAIN THE ACTUAL COMPENSATORY DAMAGES SELLER WOULD SUFFER IN THE EVENT OF BUYER’S NONPER-FORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION HEREUNDER, HEREBY AGREE THAT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SUCH DAMAGES IS AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE DEPOSIT, AND IN THE EVENT THIS TRANSACTION FAILS TO CLOSE DUE TO BUYER’S DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, SELLER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE AND RETAIN THE DEPOSIT AS FULLY AGREED LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. SELLER WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO SEEK OTHER RIGHTS OR REMEDIES AGAINST BUYER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. THE PAYMENT AND RETENTION OF THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 3275 OR 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677. SELLER HEREBY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 3389. UPON ANY SUCH BREACH OR DEFAULT BY BUYER HEREUNDER, THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE TERMINATED AND NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE ANY FURTHER RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, EACH TO THE OTHER, EXCEPT FOR THE RIGHT OF SELLER TO RETAIN SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED ABOVE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT, UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF THIS TRANSACTION AND THE MARKETPLACE AT THE TIME HEREOF, THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION IS REASONABLE AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1671.

b. By Seller.

i. For any Seller Default occurring prior to the Close of Escrow, Buyer may elect either to: (1) bring and maintain an action for specific performance, in which case Buyer shall file and serve such action on Seller within ninety (90) days after the Seller Default, or (2) terminate this Agreement and Escrow, receive a refund of the Deposit; and Buyer waives its right to seek any other damages of any type or any other remedy against Seller or any other Indemnitee in connection with such Seller Default.

ii. For Seller’s breach of one or more of its representation and warranties made in Section 7 as of the Close of Escrow, Buyer’s sole remedy shall be to file an action against Seller for damages within ninety (90) days after discovering such breach which damages shall not exceed, in the aggregate, a maximum of Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000), and Buyer waives its right to seek any other remedy against Seller in connection with such a breach.

iii. For any Seller Default not described in Subsection (ii) above and occurring after the Close of Escrow, Seller’s sole remedy shall be to bring and maintain an action for specific performance, in which case Buyer shall file and serve such action on Seller within sixty (60) days after the Seller Default, and Buyer waives its right to seek damages of any type or any other remedy against Seller or any Seller’s Related Parties in connection with such Seller Default. However, if the JAMS referee determines

Page 13

that specific performance is not available as a remedy for the Seller Default described in this paragraph, the remedy limitations of this paragraph shall not apply.

c. No Limitation. In no event shall this Section 16 limit either party’s rights against the other in connection with any of the following: (i) Section 19 (Brokers), or (ii) Section 25 (Professional Fees).

17. Entry-Related Insurance Requirements. The following shall constitute the “Required Insurance Coverage” of a party under the stated circumstance:

a. Prior to the entry on the Property during the term of this Agreement by Buyer or its employees, contractors or agents, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a certificate or certificates showing that (i) Buyer, or Buyer’s contractors and/or consultants performing investigative work on the Land, has in force a policy of comprehensive public liability insurance with liability coverage of at least One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage, automobile liability coverage including owned and hired vehicles with a combined single limit of not less than One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage, and an excess umbrella liability policy of bodily injury and property damage in the amount of Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00), insuring Seller, its members and agents as additional insureds.

b. The foregoing insurance coverage shall be on an “occurrence form” and otherwise in such forms and with an insurance company reasonably acceptable to Seller, and each insurance policy may be cancelled only after at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice has been given by the insurer to each additional insured thereunder.

18. Right of Entry.

a. Buyer and Buyer’s agents, representatives, consultants, contractors and subcontractors (collectively, “Buyer’s Representatives”) shall have the right to enter upon the Land at all reasonable times during the term of this Agreement, in order to conduct such further investigations, tests and studies as Buyer shall reasonably deem necessary (the “Investigations”), so long as such activities do not unreasonably damage the Land. Prior to entry onto the Land, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a certificate or certificates evidencing that the Required Insurance Coverage specified in Section 17 above has been obtained and is in effect. Buyer shall keep the Land free and clear of any mechanic’s liens or materialmen’s liens arising out of any such activities (and at Buyer’s sole expense, Buyer shall immediately discharge of record or bond around any such liens or encumbrances that are so filed or recorded, including, without limitation, liens for services, labor or materials furnished in connection with the activities of Buyer or Buyer’s Representatives on the Property). Further, Buyer hereby indemnifies and holds Seller harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of action, losses, costs, liabilities and/or expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) to the extent caused by Buyer or Buyer’s Representatives in connection with any Investigations or other activities of Buyer or Buyer’s Representatives taken with respect to the Land and/or any liens or encumbrances filed or recorded against the Property as a result thereof; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Buyer be responsible for any environmental conditions existing on the Land and discovered by (but not caused or exacerbated by an act or knowing omission of) Buyer during the course of Buyer’s investigation of the Land, or any acts of Seller or Seller’s Related Parties. The foregoing obligation shall survive the Close of Escrow or termination of this Agreement.

b. During the term of this Agreement, Buyer shall:

i. conduct any further Investigations of the Property deemed desirable by Buyer (but the subject transaction shall not be contingent upon the results of such Investigations);

Page 14

ii. provided that Seller has given approval for invasive testing, promptly repair any damage to the Land resulting from Buyer’s Investigations and replace, refill and re-grade any holes made by Buyer in, or Buyer’s excavations of, any portion of the Property used for such Investigations so that the Land shall be in substantially the same condition that it existed in prior to such Investigations;

iii. fully comply with all laws applicable to the Investigations and all other activities undertaken in connection therewith;

iv. give Seller reasonable advance notice so that Seller can arrange to have a representative present during all Investigations undertaken hereunder;

v. take all actions and implement all protections reasonably necessary to ensure that the Investigations and the equipment, materials, and substances generated, used or brought onto the Land in connection with the Investigations pose no threat to the safety or health of persons or the environment and cause no damage to the Land or other property of Seller or other persons; and

vi. furnish to Seller, at no cost or expense to Seller (but without warranty as to accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose) and subject to any disclaimers or limitations on reliance imposed by third party consultants), copies of all surveys, soil test results, engineering, asbestos, environmental and other third party studies and reports relating to the Investigations which Buyer shall obtain with respect to the Land (Buyer shall be relieved of this obligation if the Agreement terminates due to a breach by Seller of a material obligation under this Agreement).

The foregoing obligations shall survive the Close of Escrow or a termination of this Agreement.

c. Without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall Buyer, without the prior written consent of Seller, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, make any invasive physical testing (environmental, geo-technical or otherwise) on the Land.

19. Brokers. Buyer and Seller each warrant and covenant to the other that no fees or commissions are due or owing to any finders or brokers as a result of this transaction. In the event of any claim for brokers’ for finders’ fees or commissions in connection with the negotiations, execution or consummation of this Agreement or the purchase and sale of the Property, then Buyer shall indemnify, save harmless and defend Seller from and against any such claim based upon any alleged statement, representation or agreement by Buyer, and Seller shall indemnify, save harmless and defend Buyer from and against any such claim based upon any alleged statement, representation or agreement by Seller. The provisions of this Section shall survive the Close of Escrow.

20. Assignment. Buyer may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent, except as provided below, may be withheld by Seller in its sole and absolute discretion, and which may be conditioned upon such terms and conditions as Seller may require, in its sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have the right to assign its interest under this Agreement to any corporation, partnership or limited liability company over which Buyer or its principals has or have managerial control and in which Buyer or its principals has or have a material economic interest, provided that in either instance the assignee unqualifiedly and fully assumes all the obligations of Buyer (including all post-closing obligations of Buyer as set forth in this Agreement) for the express benefit of Seller pursuant to a fully executed assignment and assumption agreement delivered to Seller not later than two (2) business days prior the Close of Escrow. Notwithstanding and without limiting the foregoing, no assignment of this Agreement

Page 15

shall release the original Buyer hereunder and no consent given by Seller to any transfer or assignment of Buyer’s rights or obligations hereunder shall be deemed to constitute a consent to any other transfer or assignment of Buyer’s rights or obligations hereunder and no transfer or assignment in violation of the provisions hereof shall be valid or enforceable. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

21. Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be personally delivered or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, delivered or sent by telecopy or reputable overnight courier (such as Federal Express) and shall be deemed received upon the earlier of (i) if personally delivered, the date of delivery to the address of the person to receive such notice, (ii) if mailed, three (3) business days after the date of posting by the United States post office, (iii) if given by fax or telecopy, when sent, or (iv) if sent by reputable overnight courier (such as Federal Express), one (1) business day after deposit with the overnight delivery service.

Page 16

purchase and sale herein contemplated, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to accomplish the Close of Escrow in accordance with the provisions hereof.

23. Partial Invalidity. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each such term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

24. Waivers. No failure or delay of either party in the exercise of any right or remedy given to such party hereunder or the waiver by any party of any condition hereunder for its benefit (unless the time specified in this Agreement for exercise of such right or remedy has expired) shall constitute a waiver of any other or further right or remedy nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof or any other right or remedy. No waiver by either party of any breach hereunder or failure or refusal by the other party to comply with its obligations hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, failure or refusal to so comply.

25. Professional Fees. Subject to the provisions of Section 16 hereof, in the event of the bringing of any action or suit by either party against the other by reason of any breach of any of the covenants, representations or warranties of the other party under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover of and from the other party all costs and expenses of the action or suit, including, without limitation, actual attorneys’ fees, accounting and engineering fees, and other professional fees resulting therefrom.

26. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement (including all recitals, exhibits and schedules attached hereto) is the final expression of, and contains the entire agreement between, the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings with respect thereto including without limitation that certain Letter of Intent, dated February 24, 2009. This Agreement may not be modified, changed, or supplemented, nor may any obligation hereunder be waived, except by written instrument signed by the party to be charged or by its agent duly authorized in writing or as otherwise expressly permitted herein. The parties do not intend to confer any benefit hereunder on any person, firm or corporation other than the parties hereto.

27. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Agreement. Whenever any action must be taken (including the giving of notice or the delivery of documents) under this Agreement during a certain period of time (or by a particular date) that ends (or occurs) on a non-business day, then such period (or date) shall be extended until the next succeeding business day. As used herein, the term “business day” shall mean any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which commercial banks in the State of California are not required or authorized to be closed for business.

28. Construction of Agreement. Headings at the beginning of each section and subsection of this Agreement are solely for the convenience of the parties and are not a part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context of this Agreement, the singular shall include the plural and the masculine shall include the feminine and vice verse. This Agreement shall not be construed as if it had been prepared by one of the parties, but rather as if both parties had prepared the same. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to sections and subsections are to sections and subsections in this Agreement. All recitals, exhibits and schedules referred to in this Agreement are attached and incorporated by this reference.

29. Third Parties. Nothing in this Agreement, whether expressed or implied, is intended to confer any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement upon any other person other than the

Page 17

parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and any third parties expressly mentioned herein, nor is anything in this Agreement intended to relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any third persons to any party to this Agreement, nor shall any provision give any third parties any right of subrogation or action over or against any party to this Agreement. Except to the extent expressly provided for herein, this Agreement is not intended to and does not create any third party beneficiary rights whatsoever.

30. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same document.

31. Survival of Obligations. All of Buyer’s and Seller’s representations and warranties in this Agreement shall survive the Close of Escrow for a period of one (1) year; covenants of the parties expressly stated to survive the Close of Escrow shall survive until the obligations in question are discharged. All other obligations of Seller or Buyer not expressly stated to survive the Close of Escrow or not stated in the exhibit documents to be delivered upon the Close of Escrow shall be deemed discharged upon the Close of Escrow and the recordation of the Grant Deed.

32. Order of Reference. The parties hereto agree that the State Courts located in Riverside County, California (“Court”) shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any action or proceeding brought to enforce or interpret any provision of this Agreement (“Action”), and the parties hereby consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction over them by the Court for purposes of resolving the Action. Any party may file a complaint with the Court, and in no other court, and any party may give the other parties written notice of the notifying party’s intent to apply to the Court to appoint a referee pursuant to the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638. Following the filing of the complaint and service of the summons, such Action shall be referred promptly by the Court (a) upon joint application of the parties, to a retired judge or justice from the Orange County panel members of JAMS (“JAMS”) stipulated by the parties within five (5) business days of the delivery of the notifying party’s notice described above; or (b) if the parties have not so stipulated, upon ex parte application of any party, to any retired judge or justice from such panel; to try all of the issues including all pre-trial and post-trial hearings, motions and matters of any kind whether of fact or of law and report a statement of decision thereon which shall stand as a decision of the Court. The referee shall have all the powers of a regular sitting Superior Court judge including without limitation the power to impose sanctions and to hold in contempt. Discovery shall be permitted in accordance with law and must be completed no later than ten (10) calendar days prior to the date first set for trial. A court reporter at the trial may be requested by any party. The trial must commence within one hundred twenty (120) calendar days of the date of appointment of the referee. Should JAMS, or a successor of JAMS, not be in existence at the time an Action arises, the parties agree to jointly select in good faith an alternate organization offering at that time services substantially similar to those now offered by JAMS and, when so selected, such alternate organization shall be substituted for JAMS wherever JAMS is referred to herein.

33. Governing Law. The parties expressly agree that this Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under, and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

34. Exoneration of Subdivision Bonds.

a. Generally. Seller has executed subdivision improvement agreements (collectively, the “XXXx”) and posted those bonds listed on Exhibit “E” attached hereto securing the XXXx (collectively, the “Bonds”). Buyer shall cause new XXXx and replacement bonds (or other security satisfactory to the beneficiary, as applicable) to be delivered to the beneficiary, as applicable, and shall cause Seller to be released from liability under the XXXx and cause the Bonds to be fully exonerated within one hundred eighty (180) days following the Closing Date.

Page 18

b. Liquidated Damages Remedy. BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT: (A) IF BUYER BREACHES ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER Section 34(a) ABOVE, THEN SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR SUCH BREACH SHALL BE TO RECOVER FROM BUYER LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IN THE AMOUNT OF $650,000 AND NOT AS A PENALTY; AND (B) BECAUSE OF THE NATURE OF THIS AGREEMENT, IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX SELLER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES IF SUCH A BREACH OCCURS AND THAT THEREFORE THE AMOUNT OF LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SPECIFIED ABOVE SHALL BE PRESUMED TO BE THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES SELLER WOULD SUSTAIN BY REASON OF SUCH A BREACH AND REPRESENTS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THOSE DAMAGES PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1671 THROUGH 1681. BUYER’S OBLIGATION TO PAY SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS SECURED BY A DEED OF TRUST RECORDED AGAINST THE LAND IN THE FORM OF EXHIBIT “F” ATTACHED HERETO (“TRUST DEED”), AND SELLER WAIVES THE RIGHT TO OBTAIN A DEFIENCY JUDGEMENT AGAINST BUYER AFTER ANY FORECLOSURE OF THE TRUST DEED.

35. Right of First Refusal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain right of first refusal agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “G” (the “ROFR Agreement”), Buyer and Seller hereby agree that Seller shall have a right of first refusal (the “ROFR”) to re-purchase all or a portion of the Property from Buyer upon Buyer’s receipt of a bona fide offer from a third party to purchase all or such portion of the Property, which offer is acceptable to Buyer. Upon Buyer’s receipt of such bona fide offer which Buyer is willing to accept, Buyer shall provide to Seller a copy of the bona fide offer (“Buyer’s Notice”). Seller shall have five (5) days from receipt of Buyer’s Notice to exercise its ROFR upon that portion of the Property which is the subject of the third party offer (the “ROFR Property”) by matching the terms and conditions of such bona fide offer contained in Buyer’s Notice. If Seller exercises its ROFR with respect to the ROFR Property, but the ROFR Property does not constitute all of the Property then owned by Buyer at such time, the remaining portion of the Property shall remain subject to the ROFR. If Buyer is unable to consummate the sale of the ROFR Property to any third party at a price not less than (97%) of the price contained in Buyer’s Notice and otherwise on terms not materially more favorable to such third party than those set forth in Buyer’s Notice within six (6) months of the date of delivery of Buyer’s Notice to Seller, then the ROFR shall continue to apply to the ROFR Property in accordance under the terms of the ROFR Agreement.

36. Waiver of Bulk Sale Notice and PPA. Prior to the Close of Escrow, Buyer shall deliver to Seller an approval signed by TSG Kula Nei, L.P., a California limited partnership, formerly known as Xxxxxx Canyon Investments, L.P., a California limited partnership (“Xxxxxx”), in substantially the form of Exhibit “K” attached hereto.

37. Insurance. For the period Buyer owns the Property, Buyer shall, at its sole cost and expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its insurer to name Seller and Lennar Homes as additional insureds on the commercial general liability policy(ies) Buyer carries for the Property. Buyer shall arrange for its insurance carrier to issue an initial certificate to Lennar Homes showing both Seller and Lennar Homes as additional insureds on such policy and then an additional certificate confirming the continuation of coverage promptly following the expiration of any policy term.

38. Developer Obligations. If and when Buyer commences any development work on the Land, Buyer agrees the following additional obligations shall apply:

a. Expanded Indemnity. In lieu of the indemnity obligation in Section 6(c) above, effective retroactive to the Close of Escrow, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, the

Page 19

Seller’s Related Parties, and their respective property from, for and against all loss, liability, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or related to Claims. The defense by Buyer required by the above sentence shall be a full and complete defense of all the indemnified parties described above and the defense obligation shall be effective immediately after a Claim is tendered to Buyer.

b. Developer Insurance. In lieu of the insurance described in Section 37 above, Buyer shall, at its sole cost and expense, by the date of commencement of such development work, obtain and thereafter maintain in full force and effect with companies reasonably acceptable to Seller, the insurance set forth on Exhibit “H” attached hereto, and otherwise comply with the provisions of that Exhibit. Buyer shall give Seller and Lennar Homes advance notice of such commencement of development work accompanied by documentation reasonably satisfactory to Seller confirming that such insurance will be in place as of the date of such commencement.

For purposes hereof, the term “development work” shall exclude periodic maintenance activities on the Property such as weed abatement or street sweeping.

39. Subsequent Sale of Property. If Buyer sells or otherwise conveys in fee the Property or any portion thereof to another person or entity (other than a sale of a completed residence to a member of the homebuying public), then as part of such sale or conveyance, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to contractually require the transferee, its successors and assigns, for the express benefit of the Benefited Parties (as defined below) enforceable by each of them as third party beneficiaries, to agree to: (a) substantially the same obligations of Buyer under Section 6(a)-(b) (“AS-IS” and release), and (b) Section 38 (Developer Obligations). Despite using commercially reasonable efforts, if Buyer is unable to obtain its transferee’s agreement to substantially the above referenced obligations, then Buyer shall nevertheless obtain for the express benefit of the Benefited Parties enforceable by each of them as third party beneficiaries, all protective provisions negotiated by Buyer for its own benefit (including, by way of example, the transferee’s agreement to acquire the Property in its “as is” condition, any release of Buyer from obligations related to the Property, an indemnity of Buyer related to the Property, and the transferee’s agreement to maintain insurance related to the Property that benefits Buyer). For purposes of all such protective provisions other than insurance, the Benefited Parties shall mean Seller and the Seller’s Related Parties. For purposes of any insurance carried by the transferee, the Benefited Parties shall mean the Insured Parties (as defined on Exhibit “H” below). Following the sale of the Property (or any portion thereof), Buyer shall not have any obligation to Seller under this Section 39 to enforce, for the benefit of Seller, any of the agreed undertakings of such purchasing person or entity.

The following is a copy of Subdivisions A and B of the fictitious Deed of Trust recorded in each county in California as stated in the foregoing Deed of Trust and incorporated by reference in said Deed of Trust as being a part thereof as if set forth at length therein.

To protect the security of this Deed of Trust, Trustor agrees:

1) To keep said property in good condition and repair, not to remove or demolish any building thereon; to complete or restore promptly and in good and workmanlike manner any building which may be constructed, damaged or destroyed thereon and to pay when due all claims for labor performed and materials furnished therefor, to comply with all laws affecting said property or requiring any alterations or improvements to be made thereon, not to commit or permit waste thereof; not to commit, suffer or permit any act upon said property in violation of law; to cultivate, irrigate, fertilize, fumigate, prune and do all other acts which from the character or use of said property may be reasonably necessary, the specific enumerations herein not excluding the general.

2) To provide, maintain and deliver to Beneficiary fire insurance satisfactory to and with loss payable to Beneficiary. The amount collected under any fire or other insurance policy may be applied by Beneficiary upon any indebtedness secured hereby and in such order as Beneficiary may determine, or at option of Beneficiary the entire amount so collected or any part thereof may be released to Trustor. Such application or release shall not cure or waive any default or notice of default hereunder or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.

3) To appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the security hereof or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee; and to pay all costs and expenses, including cost of evidence of title and attorney’s fees in a reasonable sum, in any such action or proceeding in which Beneficiary or Trustee may appear, and in any suit brought by Beneficiary to foreclose this Deed.

4) To pay; at least ten days before delinquency all taxes and assessments affecting said property, including assessments on appurtenant water stock; when due, all encumbrances, charges and liens, with interest, on said property or any part thereof, which appear to be prior or superior hereto; all costs, fees and expenses of this Trust.

Should Trustor fail to make any payment or to do any act as herein provided, then Beneficiary or Trustee, but without obligation so to do and without notice to or demand upon Trustor and without releasing Trustor from any obligation hereof, may; make or do the same in such manner and to such extent as either may deem necessary to protect the security hereof, Beneficiary or Trustee being authorized to enter upon said property for such purposes; appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the security hereof or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee; pay, purchase, contest or compromise any encumbrance, charge or lien which in the judgment of either appears to be prior or superior hereto; and, in exercising any such powers, pay necessary expenses, employ counsel and pay his reasonable fees.

5) To pay immediately and without demand all sums so expended by Beneficiary or Trustee, with interest from date of expenditure at the amount allowed by law in effect at the date hereof, and to pay for any statement provided for by law in effect at the date hereof regarding the obligation secured hereby any amount demanded by the Beneficiary not to exceed the maximum allowed by law at the time when said statement is demanded.

It is mutually agreed:

1) That any award of damages in connection with any condemnation for public use of or injury to said property or any part thereof is hereby assigned and shall be paid to Beneficiary who may apply or release such monies received by him in the same manner and with the same effect as above provided for disposition of proceeds of fire or other insurance.

2) That by accepting payment of any sum secured hereby after its due date, Beneficiary does not waive his right either to require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare default for failure so to pay.

3) That at any time or from time to time, without liability therefor and without notice, upon written request of Beneficiary and presentation of this Deed and said not for endorsement, and without affecting the personal liability of any person for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, Trustee may: reconvey any part of said property; consent to the making of any map or plat thereof; join in granting any easement thereon, or join in any extension agreement or any agreement subordinating the lien or charge hereof.

4) That upon written request of Beneficiary stating that all sums secured hereby have been paid, and upon surrender of this Deed and said note to Trustee for cancellation and retention or other disposition as Trustee in its sole discretion may choose and upon payment of its fees, Trustee shall reconvey, without warranty, the property then held hereunder. The recitals in such reconveyance of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. The Grantee in such reconveyance may be described as “the person or persons legally entitled thereto”.

5) That as additional security, Trustor hereby gives to and confers upon Beneficiary the right, power and authority, during the continuance of these Trusts, to collect the rents, issues and profits of said property, reserving unto Trustor the right, prior to any default by Trustor in payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or in performance of any agreement hereunder, to collect and retain such rents, issues and profits as they become due and payable. Upon any such default, Beneficiary may at any time without notice, either in person, by agent, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the indebtedness hereby secured, enter upon and take possession of said property or any part thereof, in his own name xxx for or otherwise collect such rents, issues, and profits, including those past due and unpaid, and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees, upon any indebtedness secured hereby, and in such order as Beneficiary may determine. The entering upon

and taking possession of said property, the collecting of such rents, issues and profits and the application thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any default or notice of default hereunder or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.

6) That upon default by Trustor in payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or in performance of any agreement hereunder, Beneficiary may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable by delivery to Trustee of written declaration of default and demand for sale and of written notice of default and of election to cause to be sold said property, which notice Trustee shall cause to be filed for record. Beneficiary also shall deposit with Trustee this Deed, said note and all documents evidencing expenditures secured hereby.

After the lapse of such time as may then be required by law following the recordation of said notice of default, and notice of sale having been given as then required by law, Trustee, without demand on Trustor, shall sell said property at the time and place fixed by it in said notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate parcels, and in such order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale. Trustee may postpone sale of all or any portion of said property by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement. Trustee shall deliver to such purchaser its deed conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including Trustor, Trustee, or Beneficiary as hereinafter defined, may purchase at such sale.

After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee and of this Trust, including costs of evidence of title in connection with sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of: all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued interest at the amount allowed by law in effect at the date hereof; all other sums then secured hereby; and the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.

7) Beneficiary, or any successor in ownership of any indebtedness secured hereby, may from time to time, by instrument in writing, substitute a successor or successors to any Trustee named herein or acting hereunder, which instrument, executed by the Beneficiary and duly acknowledged and recorded in the office of the recorder of the county or counties where said property is situated shall be conclusive proof of proper substitution of such successor Trustee or Trustees, who shall, without conveyance from the Trustee predecessor, succeed to all its title, estate, rights, powers and duties. Said instrument must contain the name of the original Trustor, Trustee and Beneficiary hereunder, the book and page where this Deed is recorded and the name and address of the new Trustee.

8) That this Deed applies to, inures to the benefit of, and binds all parties hereto, their heirs, legatees, devisees, administrators, executors, successors and assigns. The term Beneficiary shall mean the owner and holder, including pledgees, of the note secured hereby, whether or not named as Beneficiary herein. In this Deed, whenever the context so requires the masculine gender includes the feminine and/or neuter, and the singular number includes the plural.

9) That Trustee accepts this Trust when this Deed, duly executed and acknowledged, is made a public record as provided by law. Trustee is not obligated to notify any party hereto of pending sale under any other Deed of Trust or of any action or proceeding in which Trustor, Beneficiary or Trustee shall be a party unless brought by Trustee.

AGREEMENT FOR
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

THIS AGREEMENT FOR RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL (this “Agreement”) is made as of the date of recordation hereof, by and between MS RIALTO XXXXXX CANYON CA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), and SPT-LAKE ELSINORE HOLDING CO., LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”), with reference to the facts set forth below.

RECITALS:

A. Pursuant to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement and Escrow Instructions between Seller and Buyer dated as of April 14, 2009 (as amended from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”), Seller has conveyed to Buyer concurrently with the recordation hereof certain real property (the “Property”) located in the City of Lake Elsinore, County of Riverside, State of California, more particularly described in Exhibit “1” attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

B. As a material consideration to induce Seller to convey the Property to Buyer at the Purchase Price set forth in the Purchase Agreement, Buyer has agreed to grant to Seller a right of first refusal to repurchase the Property on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, including, without limitation, the sale of the Property to Buyer, Buyer hereby grants to Seller a right of first refusal with respect to the Property on the terms and conditions set forth below.

ARTICLE 1
DEFINITIONS AND TERM OF AGREEMENT

1.1. Defined Terms. Except as the context otherwise requires, all terms used herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

1.2 Transfer. As used in this Agreement, the term “Transfer” shall mean (a) the cumulative sale, exchange or transfer, in one or more transactions, of fifty percent (50%) or more of the stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other beneficial interests in Buyer, (b) any transfer, sale, ground lease, or other conveyance of the Property, or portion thereof, whether by agreement for sale or in any other manner (excluding any transfer merely as security for the performance of an obligation), and (c)

any arrangement between Buyer and a third party whereby such third party has an interest in or will share in any manner in the profits derived from the development or sale of all or any portion of the Property.

1.3 Proposed Transfer Property. As used herein, the term “Proposed Transfer Property” shall mean (a) in the case of Transfer under Section 1.2(a) above, that portion of the Property owned by Buyer on the date Buyer gives the Proposed Transfer Notice (as defined below) or (b) in the case of a Transfer under Section 1.2(b) above, that portion of the Property Buyer proposes to Transfer.

ARTICLE 2
GRANT OF RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

2.1 Grant. During the term of this Agreement, Seller shall have the right (the “Right of First Refusal”) to repurchase from Buyer the Proposed Transfer Property subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall have absolute and complete discretion whether to sell all or any part of the Property to any third party, as well as the sales price(s) and terms of sale, provided that Buyer complies with the terms of this Agreement.

2.2 Proposed Transfer Notice. If Buyer receives any offer made by a third party that Buyer is willing to accept (a “Proposed Transfer”), then Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller (the “Proposed Transfer Notice”) identifying the following terms of the Proposed Transfer: (i) the names and addresses of the parties to the Proposed Transfer; (ii) the Proposed Transfer Property; (iii) if applicable, the stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other beneficial interests in Buyer proposed to be transferred (the “Transferred Interest”); (iv) the consideration to be paid by the proposed transferee (the “Proposed Transfer Purchase Price”); (v) the amount of xxxxxxx money (the “Xxxxxxx Money”); and (vi) the outside closing date for the Proposed Transfer (the “Outside Closing Date”). Buyer shall attach to the Proposed Transfer Notice a copy of the written offer and any other agreement proposed by the proposed transferee as well as a copy of a current preliminary title report covering the Proposed Transfer Property from North American Title Insurance Company (or other title company approved by Seller). If the Proposed Transfer is to be made in exchange for property of the transferee, Buyer shall place a dollar value on the property to be exchanged and the Proposed Transfer Purchase Price shall be deemed to be equal to such dollar value, subject to the provisions of Section 2.4 below. If the Proposed Transfer consists of a transfer of a Transferred Interest, the Proposed Transfer Purchase Price shall be deemed to be an amount equal to the dollar value of the consideration to be paid by the prospective buyer of such interest (the “New Interest Holder”).

2.3 Exercise or Expiration of Right of First Refusal. Seller shall respond in writing to the Proposed Transfer Notice within ten (10) business days after it is received by Seller. Seller’s response shall unequivocally and unconditionally state that Seller shall exercise its Right of First Refusal to purchase all of the Proposed Transfer Property on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice (a “Notice of Exercise”), or that Seller shall not do so. In the event Seller fails to deliver a Notice of Exercise within the ten (10) business day period, Seller shall be deemed to have waived its Right of First Refusal with respect to the Proposed Transfer under the Proposed Transfer Notice. Failure by Seller to exercise its Right of First Refusal with respect to any particular Proposed Transfer by Buyer shall in no way extinguish or otherwise limit any remaining rights of Seller, if any, with respect to any portion of the Property that is not the subject of such Proposed Transfer or otherwise under this Agreement. Provided that Seller does not timely give Buyer a Notice of Exercise, Buyer may complete the Proposed Transfer free of this Right of First Refusal in Substantial Conformity (as defined below) with the terms and conditions offered to Seller as set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice. If Buyer does not complete the Proposed Transfer in Substantial Conformity with the terms and conditions offered to Seller as set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice. However, if Buyer intends to undertake the Proposed

Transfer on terms and conditions which are changed or modified from those stated in the Proposed Transfer Notice, then such Proposed Transfer shall be treated as new Proposed Transfer to which the above provisions of this Agreement and the Right of First Refusal shall once again apply. As used herein, “Substantial Conformity” means a transaction with a purchase price no less than ninety seven percent (97%) of the purchase price in the Proposed Transfer Notice, a close of escrow of no later than thirty (30) days after the outside closing date specified in the Proposed Transfer Notice and including every other material term of the Proposed Transfer set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice (including material terms contained in the proposed buyer’s written offer and any other agreement attached to the Proposed Transfer Notice).

2.4 Appraisal of Exchange Property. If Seller objects to the dollar value placed by Buyer on exchange property pursuant to Section 2.2 above during the ten (10) business day period provided in Section 2.3 above, the Proposed Transfer Purchase Price shall be deemed to be equal to the fair market value of such property as established by an appraisal conducted by an appraiser appointed by Seller and an appraiser appointed by Buyer within ten (10) days after Seller’s appointment of an appraiser, each of whom shall be a member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers. If the two (2) appraisals are within three percent (3%) of each other, the fair market value of such property will be the average amount of the two (2) appraisals. Otherwise, the two (2) appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the same requirements to prepare a third appraisal, and the fair market value shall be the average of the third appraisal and the one appraisal among the first two (2) appraisals that is closest to the third appraisal. Buyer and Seller shall each pay 50% of the cost of the appraisals. The ten (10) business day period provided in Section 2.3 above for Seller to deliver notice of exercise of its Right of First Refusal shall be extended until five (5) business days after the fair market value is determined by the above process.

2.5 Transfer to Related Entity. Buyer may Transfer Proposed Transfer Property to an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Buyer (a “Related Entity”) or to one of its partners pursuant to the buy-sell agreement set forth in Buyer’s limited partnership agreement without being subject to Seller’s Right of First Refusal (a “Buy-Sell Transfer”), so long as: (i) in the case of a transfer to a Related Entity, Buyer provides reasonable evidence to Seller that Buyer has a profits interest in the Related Entity, directly or indirectly, of at least twenty-five percent (25%) after a return of capital and a cumulative return thereon to investors; (ii) Buyer submits to Seller a written statement describing the material terms of such transfer; and (iii) Buyer and the Related Entity and/or the transferee under the Buy-Sell Transfer, as applicable, execute and deliver to Seller in recordable form an assignment and assumption agreement in which the Related Entity and/or the transferee agrees to assume all obligations of Buyer under this Agreement with respect to the Proposed Transfer Property. Any transfer to a Related Entity and/or the transferee by Buyer shall in no way extinguish or otherwise limit the Right of First Refusal with respect to any subsequent transfer of the Proposed Transfer Property by the Related Entity and/or the transferee. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “control” (or any variant thereof) means the control, directly or indirectly, of at least twenty -five percent (25%) of the voting or financial interests in an entity.

2.6 Exercise of Right of First Refusal. If Seller exercises its Right of First Refusal, within five (5) business days after Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s Notice of Exercise, an escrow shall be opened at an escrow company selected by Seller, and the close of escrow shall occur no later than the later of (a) thirty (30) days after Seller delivers the Notice of Exercise or (b) the Outside Closing Date set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice. Except as set forth in this paragraph, the terms of such Transfer shall be the same terms and conditions set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice (including material terms contained in the proposed buyer’s written offer and any other agreement attached to the Proposed Transfer Notice).

ARTICLE 3
ASSIGNMENT OF WARRANTIES; SUBORDINATION

3.1 Assignment of Warranties and Plans. If any Proposed Transfer Property is transferred to Seller or its nominee hereunder, all warranties in which Buyer may then have an interest relating to work, labor, skill or materials furnished in connection with the construction of any improvements on such Proposed Transfer Property shall thereupon be deemed assigned to and the property of Seller or its nominee at the closing of such transfer without further act or consideration. Also at the closing of such transfer, Buyer shall be deemed to have granted to Seller or its nominee a non-exclusive right, without any representation or warranty, to use any and all plans and specifications which have been prepared by or for Buyer related to improvements on such Proposed Transfer Property, whether constructed or not, without consideration or expense to Seller or its nominee. Buyer agrees, within five (5) business days after receipt by Buyer of a request by Seller or its nominee, to execute such documents as Seller or its nominee reasonably requests to document the foregoing assignments and to deliver original copies of such warranties, plans and specifications to Seller or its nominee, without any representation or warranty.

3.2 Subordination to Deed of Trust. Provided that Buyer is not in default hereunder or under the Purchase Agreement, on written request of Buyer, Seller shall execute and deliver, to such unrelated institutional lender(s) as Buyer may designate in writing, a recordable instrument subordinating the Right of First Refusal to the lien of the mortgage(s) or deed(s) of trust securing one or more loans from such institution(s), all or substantially all proceeds of which are to be used to pay costs and fees associated with the acquisition, development, construction and improvement of the Property and which does not provide for a prepayment penalty, within ten (10) business days after receipt by Seller from Buyer of the following:

(1) A true and complete copy of the deed(s) of trust covering the Property to be executed by Buyer or the portion thereof that is securing the loan, the note(s) secured thereby and all other instruments evidencing or securing the indebtedness evidenced by said note(s);

(2) A copy of a Request for Notice of Default pursuant to Section 2924b of the California Civil Code prepared for execution and acknowledgment by Seller which, when recorded at the expense of Buyer, will entitle Seller to the notices prescribed by Section 2924b of the California Civil Code; and

If the lender or a nominee of the lender acquires the Property or any portion thereof pursuant to a foreclosure, judicial or non judicial, of any deed of trust, or through delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure (such person so acquiring the same being referred to below in this Section as a “Permitted Transferee”), this Agreement shall automatically terminate with respect to such portion of the Property.

Buyer shall maintain Commercial General Liability Insurance on an “occurrence” basis, with reasonably acceptable deductibles, with a combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) or an amount equal to the limit from time to time carried by Buyer, if greater, covering the following:

	(A)		Operations, Independent Contractors, Products and Completed Operations which Buyer shall maintain in effect on an annual renewal basis for at least ten (10) years following final completion of operations in, on or about the Property (and such coverage shall include all improvements already existing on the Property as of the Close of Escrow);

	(B)		Owners’ and Contractors’ Protective Liability;

	(C)		Severability of Interest and Cross Liability clauses;

	(D)		Contractual Liability, including without limitation coverage for Buyer’s contractual indemnities in this Agreement;

	(E)		Personal Injury and Explosions, Collapse and Underground Hazards (X, C, U); and

	(F)		Broad Form Property Damage Liability, including completed operations.

The limits of liability of the insurance coverage specified in this clause (b) may be provided by any combination of primary and excess liability insurance policies. The above coverage shall not exclude coverage for subsidence or other land movement.

c. Automobile Liability Insurance. Buyer shall maintain owned, hired and non-owed automobile liability insurance covering all use of all automobiles, trucks and other motor vehicles utilized by Buyer on the Property with a combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or in an amount equal to the limit from time to time carried by Buyer if greater.

2. Waiver of Subrogation. Buyer hereby waives all rights against the Insured Parties for damages caused by fire and other perils and any other risk to the extent covered by Buyer’s policies of insurance or required to be covered by Buyer’s policies of insurance as set forth above.

3. Additional Insured. The Insured Parties shall be included as additional insureds under the coverage specified in Sections 1(b) and (c) of this Exhibit with the following provisions included within each applicable policy: “It is understood and agreed that coverage afforded by this Policy shall also apply

to MS Rialto Xxxxxx Canyon CA, LLC, Lennar Homes of California Inc, and each of their members, shareholders, affiliated companies, officers, directors and employees, as additional insureds, but only with respect to legal liability or claims arising from the ownership and development of the project in the County of Riverside more particularly described as “Xxxxxx Canyon.” This insurance is primary and any other insurance or self-insurance by such additional insureds is non-contributing with this insurance as respects claims or liability arising out of or resulting from the acts or omissions of the named insured, or of others performed on behalf of the named insured.” If Buyer’s insurance company does not allow a manuscript endorsement in the form set forth above, then Seller will accept in lieu thereof, ISO Forms CG2010B 11/85 or CG2026 11/85, or equivalent, showing the additional insureds noted above.

4. Insurance Policies. Each insurance policy required in this Exhibit shall:

a. Be issued by insurance carriers licensed and approved to do business in California, having a general policyholders rating of not less than an “A” and financial rating of not less than “X” in the most current Best’s Key Rating Guide;

b. Contain a provision that the policy shall not be subject to material alteration to the detriment of Seller or Buyer or cancellation or non-renewal without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice be given to Seller by certified mail;

c. Provide that such policy or policies and the coverage evidenced thereby are primary and any insurance maintained by the additional insureds is noncontributing with such primary coverage; and

d. Contain severability of interest and cross liability clauses.

Buyer may provide the insurance described in this Exhibit in whole or in part through a policy or policies covering other liabilities and projects of Buyer; provided, however, that any such policy or policies shall (A) allocate to the Agreement the full amount of insurance required hereunder and (B) contain, permit or otherwise unconditionally authorize the waiver contained in Section 2 of this Exhibit, and provided further that any such policy or policies shall not otherwise impair the rights of Seller or negate the requirements of this Agreement.

5. Evidence of Insurance. As evidence of specified insurance coverage, Seller will accept certificates issued by Buyer’s insurance carrier acceptable to Seller showing such policies in force for the specified period. Seller has the right to review certified policies as reasonably necessary. Evidence of any renewal insurance shall be delivered to Seller not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date on the term of the policy. Each policy and certificate shall be subject to reasonable approval by Seller. Should any policy expire or be cancelled before the end of the period Buyer is required to carry such insurance as set forth herein, and Buyer fails immediately to procure other insurance as specified, Seller shall have the right, but shall have no obligation, to procure such insurance and to charge Buyer with one hundred ten percent (110%) of the cost to Seller of procuring such insurance. Buyer shall pay Seller any such amount within ten (10) days of written demand therefor.

6. Damages. Nothing contained in these insurance requirements is to be construed as limiting the type, quality or quantity of insurance Buyer should maintain or the extent of Buyer’s responsibility for payment of damages resulting from its operations.

7. Contractors. Buyer shall not permit any architect, engineer or contractor to commence work on or relating to the Property until such parties have complied with Buyer’s normal insurance requirements. Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each such party to name Seller as
