THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT AND JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of January 25, 2007, by and among ROSE VENTURES II, INC., a California corporation (“Seller”), and EQUINIX, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”).

R E C I T A L S

A. Seller is the owner of the “Property” (defined below), which consists principally of an approximately 133,500 square foot building, and is located in the City of San Xxxx, Santa Xxxxx County (the “County”), State of California, having a street address of 00 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx.

B. Buyer is currently the lessee (“Lessee”) under that certain Commercial Lease Agreement with Seller, as lessor, dated June 10, 1999 (as amended, the “Existing Lease”).

C. Buyer desires to purchase and Seller desires to sell the Property on the terms and conditions hereinafter documented.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual undertakings of the parties hereto, it is hereby agreed as follows:

1. Purchase and Sale. Seller shall sell to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase from Seller, the Property on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

1.1 Property. As used herein, the “Property” means, collectively, all right, title and interest of Seller in and to (a) that certain land described in Exhibit “A”, together with all easements, rights-of-way, and appurtenances benefiting such land (the “Land”), (b) all improvements, structures and fixtures now or on the “Closing Date” (as hereinafter defined) located upon the Land (the “Improvements”), (c) all tangible personal property now or on the Closing Date located on or used in connection with the Land and Improvements (the “Personal Property”), and (d) the Existing Lease and all “Service Agreements” (as hereinafter defined), and to the extent assignable, governmental permits, licenses and approvals, warranties and guarantees that Seller has received in connection with any work or services performed with respect to, or equipment installed in, the Improvements or the Land, tenant lists, advertising material, telephone exchange numbers and other intangible personal property related to the Land, Improvements or Personal Property (the “Intangible Property”).

2. Purchase Price. The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Property shall be Sixty-Five Million Dollars ($65,000,000). If, however, Seller elects to exercise its option to convey the Property in up to three separate installments pursuant to Section 5 below, then the purchase price (the “Installment Purchase Price”) for such installment shall be a percentage of the Purchase Price equal to the tenancy in common percentage undivided interest in the Property being conveyed to Buyer.

3. Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller by Buyer as follows:

3.1 Escrow Deposit. Within three (3) business days after the full execution and delivery of this Agreement, Buyer shall deliver Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($6,500,000) (the “Deposit”) to First American Title Insurance Company, at its offices at 0000 X. Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Attention: Xxxx Xxxxx, which company, in its capacity as escrow holder hereunder, is called “Escrow Agent”. The Deposit, together with all interest earned thereon, is referred to herein as the “Escrow Deposit”. If, pursuant to Section 5 below, Seller elects to convey portions of the Property to Buyer in more than one conveyance, then One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) of the Escrow Deposit shall be applied towards the Installment Purchase Price of the first closing of any such portion and the remainder of the Escrow Deposit shall be applied to the Installment Purchase Price of the final closing, upon which Buyer shall have acquired all of the Property (the “Final Closing”). The Escrow Deposit shall be delivered to Escrow Agent by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds or by bank or cashier’s check drawn on a national bank reasonably satisfactory to Seller. Such amount shall be held by Escrow Agent as a deposit against the Purchase Price or Installment Purchase Price in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. If Buyer delivers the “Go Hard Notice” (as defined below), prior to the expiration of the “Due Diligence Period” (as defined below), then the Escrow Deposit shall be non-refundable to Buyer, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Upon delivery of the Go Hard Notice, a memorandum of this Agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “C”, shall be recorded by Seller and Buyer in the official records of the County. At all times that the Deposit is being held by Escrow Agent, the Deposit shall be invested by Escrow Agent in the following investments (“Approved Investments”): (i) United States Treasury obligations, (ii) United States Treasury-backed repurchase agreements issued by a major money center banking institution reasonably acceptable to Seller and Buyer, (iii) the Bank of America money market fund that invests in U.S. Treasury securities known as “Nations Treasury Reserves - Daily Shares (symbol NTRDX)”, or (iv) such other manner as may be reasonably agreed to by Seller and Buyer. The Escrow Deposit shall be disposed of by Escrow Agent only as provided in this Agreement.

3.2 Closing Payment. The Purchase Price (or Installment Purchase Price, as applicable), as adjusted by the application of the Escrow Deposit and by the prorations and credits specified herein, shall be paid to Escrow Agent by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds (through the escrow described in Section 5.1) on each “Closing Date” (as defined below) (the amount to be paid under this Section 3.2 being herein called a “Closing Payment”).

4. Conditions Precedent. The obligation of Buyer to purchase, and Seller to sell the Property or any “Designated Portion” (as defined below) as contemplated by this Agreement is subject to satisfaction of each of the following respective conditions precedent (any of which may be waived prior to the applicable closing only in writing and only by the party in whose favor such condition exists) on or before the applicable date specified for satisfaction of the applicable condition. If any of such conditions is not fulfilled (or so waived in writing) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, then the party in whose favor such condition exists may terminate this Agreement and, in connection with any such termination made in accordance with this Section 4, Seller and Buyer shall be released from further obligation or liability hereunder (except for those obligations and liabilities which, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, survive such termination [and without

releasing any party for a breach or default occurring prior to such termination]), and the Escrow Deposit shall be disposed of in accordance with Section 9.

4.1 Title Matters.

4.1.1 Title Report. Seller has delivered to Buyer a copy of a preliminary title report (“Preliminary Title Report”) dated December 19, 2006, covering the Property from First American Title (which company, in its capacity as title insurer hereunder, is herein called the “Title Company”). If Buyer delivers the Go Hard Notice on or before the end of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the typed exceptions to title shown on Schedule “B” of the Preliminary Title Report and any items disclosed by any survey (the “Survey”) reviewed by Buyer prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. Approval by Buyer of any additional exceptions (the “Additional Exceptions”) to title or survey matters that are first disclosed to Buyer after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period shall be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligations to purchase the Property. Unless Buyer gives written notice that it disapproves any such Additional Exceptions, stating the exceptions so disapproved, on or before the date (“Applicable Disapproval Date”) which is ten (10) business days after such Additional Exception is disclosed, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved said Additional Exception. If, for any reason, on or before the applicable Closing Date, Seller does not cause any exceptions to title which Buyer disapproves (to the extent Buyer is permitted hereunder to so disapprove) to be removed at no cost or expense to Buyer (Seller having the right but not the obligation to do so), then a condition to Buyer’s obligation to close shall not have been satisfied and the obligation of Seller to sell, and Buyer to buy, the Property as herein provided shall terminate (and no party hereto shall have any further obligations in connection herewith except under those provisions that expressly survive a termination of this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.1.1, Seller shall be obligated to cause the release of any “Seller Encumbrances” (which, as used herein, means any monetary liens created or suffered by Seller, or any lis pendens or judgment liens as a result of Seller’s actions, that encumber the Land and Improvements, other than mechanics liens arising from the failure of Lessee or Buyer to pay its bills). Seller may use the Purchase Price or applicable Installment Purchase Price to effectuate such release concurrently with the applicable Closing.

4.1.2 Title Contingency. A condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Property (or the “Designated Portion” (as defined below) as applicable) shall be the irrevocable and unconditional written agreement of Title Company to record the “Deed” (defined below) on the applicable Closing Date and to issue to Buyer effective as of the date and time the deed is recorded, an ALTA Form B (1970, amended 10/17/70, or if the 1970, amended 10/17/70, form is not available, the 1970 form with 1984 amendment and, if that is not available, the 1992 form with no creditors’ rights exclusion and no arbitration) extended coverage owner’s title insurance policy (“Owner’s Policy”), or equivalent form acceptable to Buyer, without a creditor’s rights exclusion or including an endorsement eliminating the creditor’s rights exclusion, with coverage in the amount of the Purchase Price or the applicable Installment Purchase Price (or such greater amount, up to the total anticipated cost of acquisition, development and construction of the Property, as Buyer may elect) and dated as of the date and time the applicable Deed is recorded, indicating title to the Land (including any easements described herein for the benefit of the Property) and Improvements to be vested of record in Buyer, subject solely to the “Permitted Exceptions” (as hereinafter defined), and including the “Title Endorsements” (as hereinafter defined). As used herein:

“Permitted Exceptions” means the following: (1) the lien of any real estate taxes and assessments for the “Current Tax Year” (as defined below) and subsequent periods, provided that the same are prorated in accordance with this Agreement; and (2) such other matters set forth in the Preliminary Title Report or Survey which are approved or deemed approved by Buyer during the Due Diligence Period (or by the Applicable Disapproval Date with respect to any Additional Exception).

“Title Endorsements” means the endorsements included in any title commitment or proforma or specimen policy issued by the Title Company on or prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (or by the Applicable Disapproval Date with respect to any Additional Exception).

4.2 Due Diligence Reviews. Except for title matters (which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 4.1 above), Buyer shall have until 11:59 a.m. (Pacific time) on February 1, 2007 (the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on such date being herein called the “Due Diligence Period”) within which to perform and complete all of Buyer’s due diligence examinations, reviews and inspections of all documents listed in Exhibit “D” attached hereto, and all matters pertaining to the Property, including all leases and service contracts, all physical, environmental and compliance matters and conditions respecting the Property, copies of Seller’s insurance policies, copies of Seller’s financial and operating statements, but excluding any confidential information; provided, however, in the case of any confidential information that would be material to an institutional investor in deciding whether to purchase the Property, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of the existence of the same and shall either (1) give Buyer the right to terminate this Agreement or (2) disclose the same to Buyer on the condition that Buyer execute a confidentiality agreement reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and Seller. During the Due Diligence Period, Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable access to the Property and its files (and the files of the engineer, architect, land use counsel, and other consultants and professionals engaged by Seller in connection with the Property) relating to the Property (excluding confidential information, except as aforesaid) upon reasonable advance notice and shall also provide to Buyer copies of such leases and service contracts and other contracts as Buyer shall reasonably request, all upon reasonable advance notice. Furthermore, Seller shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any physically invasive testing desired by Buyer in connection with such inspections of the Property. If, on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer elects to continue with the purchase of the Property, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a notice expressing its interest to go forward with such purchase (the “Go Hard Notice”). If Buyer does not deliver the Go Hard Notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement (and this Agreement) shall terminate and Escrow Agent shall immediately return the full Escrow Deposit to Buyer.

4.2.1 Indemnity; Review Requirements. Buyer will and does hereby indemnify, defend, and hold Seller and the Property harmless from and against any mechanics’ liens, personal injury (including death) or physical property damage (or any liability, damage, loss, cost or expense resulting therefrom), and reasonable attorneys fees and costs incurred by Seller defending against the same, caused by Buyer in the conduct of its due diligence examinations, reviews and inspections (other than that arising from the discovery of preexisting conditions). The foregoing obligation shall survive any termination of this Agreement. In the event of any termination hereunder (other than by reason of Seller’s default), Buyer shall return all documents and other materials furnished by Seller hereunder and at Seller’s written request, Buyer shall promptly deliver

to Seller true, accurate and complete copies of any written reports relating to the Property prepared for or on behalf of Buyer by any third party. Prior to Closing, Buyer shall maintain the confidentiality of all information or data received from Seller in connection with any of the inspections, reviews or examinations; provided, however, that (x) such information or data may be disclosed by Buyer as Buyer may reasonably determine for its own valid business purposes, and (y) the foregoing confidentiality restriction shall not apply to any information or data that is available to Buyer from any other source (other than by reason of a breach by Buyer of such confidentiality restriction).

4.3 Performance by Seller. The performance and observance, in all material respects, by Seller of all covenants and agreements of this Agreement to be performed or observed by Seller prior to or on the Closing Date shall be a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Property. Without limitation on the foregoing, in the event that the “Seller Closing Certificate” (as defined below) shall disclose any material exception to the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement or any certificate delivered by Seller in connection herewith which are not otherwise permitted or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon prior written notice to Seller.

4.4 Performance by Buyer. The performance and observance, in all material respects, by Buyer of all covenants and agreements of this Agreement to be performed or observed by Buyer prior to or on the Closing Date shall be a condition precedent to Seller’s obligation to sell the Property. Without limitation on the foregoing, in the event that the “Buyer Closing Certificate” (as defined below) shall disclose any material exception to the representations and warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement or any certificate delivered by Buyer in connection herewith which are not permitted or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, then Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon prior written notice to Buyer.

5. Closing Procedure. The sale and purchase of the entire Property shall be consummated on or before November 30, 2007 (the “Outside Closing Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have the right to elect to convey tenancy in common interests (each a “Designated Portion”) to Buyer in such percentages (each a “Designated Percentage”) to be determined by Seller upon thirty (30) days advance written notice to Buyer; provided that in all events (a) the entire Property shall be conveyed to Buyer on or prior to the Outside Closing Date, and (b) Seller shall convey the Property in no more than three (3) such conveyances. If Seller elects to sell the Property in installments, then the closing date for each portion of the Property sold shall be thirty (30) days after the date of such notice; provided that Seller shall have the one-time right upon fifteen (15) days prior written notice prior to a then-scheduled Closing to cancel such planned Closing (with such cancellation only effecting the date of such conveyance, not Seller’s obligation to convey all of the Property to Buyer on or prior to the Outside Closing Date). The date on which the Property or any Designated Portion is conveyed to Buyer is referred to as the “Closing Date”.

5.1 Escrow.

The conditions to the closing of such escrow shall include the Escrow Agent’s receipt of the Closing Payment and a notice from each of Buyer and Seller authorizing Title Company to close the transactions as contemplated herein (each of Buyer and Seller being obligated to deliver such authorization notice on the Closing Date as soon as it is reasonably satisfied that the other party is in a position to deliver the items to be delivered by such other party under Section 5.2 below).

5.4 Prorations.

5.4.1 Items to be Prorated. The following shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of the beginning of the applicable Closing Date (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over the applicable period):

(a) All real estate taxes and assessments on the Property for the tax year (the “Current Tax Year”) in which the Closing occurs (with Seller and Buyer each being

responsible for a pro rata share of such taxes and assessments based upon the number of days in such tax year occurring before the Closing Date, in the case of Seller, and on or after the Closing Date, in the case of Buyer). Seller shall be responsible for all taxes and assessments for any tax year prior to the Current Tax Year. However, Buyer shall be solely responsible, and in no event shall Seller be charged with or be responsible, for any increase in the taxes on the Property resulting from the sale contemplated hereby or from any improvements made or leases entered into on or after the Closing. If any assessments on the Property are payable in installments, then the installment for the current period shall be prorated (with Buyer being allocated the obligation to pay any installments due after the Closing Date).

(b) All fixed and additional rentals under the Existing Lease. At the Final Closing, Seller shall credit Buyer an amount equal to, all prepaid rentals for periods after the final Closing Date and all refundable security deposits.

(c) All operating expenses including any premiums for casualty and liability insurance relating to the Property which Seller has paid, where the term of such insurance policy coverage continues after Buyer becomes a partial owner of the Property (but not for periods continuing after Buyer has acquired all of the Property) and insures Buyer, as well as Seller; however, there will be no prorations for debt service or payroll (because Buyer is not acquiring Seller’s financing or employees).

5.4.2 Calculation. The prorations and payments shall be made on the basis of a written statement submitted to Buyer and Seller by Escrow Agent prior to the Close of Escrow and approved by Buyer and Seller. To the extent any such Closing is only for a portion of the Property, Buyer shall only be responsible for the Designated Percentage of such prorated amount. Any item which cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and reprorated when the information is available. In the event any prorations or apportionments made under this Section 5.4.2 shall prove to be incorrect for any reason, then any party shall be entitled to an adjustment to correct the same provided a written request identifying the error in reasonable detail is given to the other party no later than twelve (12) months after the Closing.

5.5 Conveyance of Intangible Property. In the event that Seller elects to convey the Property to Buyer in more than one installment, the Intangible Property shall remain in the name of Seller until the Final Closing Date and be governed by the terms of the TIC Agreement as if the Intangible Property were included in the definition of “Property” thereunder.

6. Condemnation or Destruction of Property. In the event that, after the date hereof either any portion of the Property is taken pursuant to eminent domain proceedings or any of the improvements on the Property are damaged or destroyed by any casualty, Seller shall be required to give Buyer prompt written notice of the same. Upon and after the initial Closing Date, Seller shall deliver and assign to Buyer (except to the extent any condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds are attributable to lost rents or other items applicable to any period prior to the Closing), all claims of Seller respecting any condemnation or casualty insurance coverage, as applicable, and all condemnation proceeds or proceeds from any such casualty insurance received by Seller on account

of any casualty (except to the extent required for collection costs or repairs by Seller prior to the final Closing Date), as applicable, and Buyer shall be responsible for any repairs or construction required under the Existing Lease. In connection with any assignment of insurance proceeds hereunder, Buyer shall be credited against the Purchase Price at the next Closing with an amount equal to a pro rata share commensurate with Seller’s then percentage ownership interest in the Property of the applicable deductible amount under Seller’s insurance (except to the extent required for collection costs or repairs by Seller). Prior to the initial Closing Date, in the event that Lessee terminates the Existing Lease under Section 9 thereof, Buyer shall also have the right to terminate this Agreement and be entitled to a return of the Escrow Deposit.

During any period when both Seller and Buyer are owners of the Property as tenants in common, the Existing Lease, as it may be modified hereunder, shall remain in full force and effect as to the entire Property, and said Lease shall not merge in whole or in part with Buyer’s partial ownership of the Property. In the event that Buyer gives written notice to Seller that Buyer intends to obtain financing in connection with its acquisition or development of the Property secured inter alia by Lessee’s interest in the Existing Lease (“Construction Financing”), then, as a condition precedent to Buyer’s right to obtain such Construction Financing as permitted hereunder, Seller shall negotiate with Lessee concerning an amendment (the “Lease Amendment”) to the Existing Lease, and as a result of such negotiations an amendment thereto must be executed by Seller and Lessee on terms and conditions which are satisfactory to Seller and Lessee and which accomplish the following objectives: (a) modifies the economic and rental terms of the Existing Lease to be effective during any period of the term of the Existing Lease which occurs after the Outside Closing Date when Seller remains an owner in whole or in part of the Property by reason of Buyer’s default in completing its purchase of the Property hereunder, and (b) enables Lessee or Buyer to satisfy the requirements of its lender for the Construction Financing, including (1) extending the term of the lease to twenty (20) years, (2) providing customary leasehold mortgagee protections, and (c) including such other non-economic modifications of the terms of the Existing Lease reasonably requested by such lender which do not materially adversely affect Seller’s rights or obligations under said Existing Lease. Nothing herein shall require either Party to agree to such Lease Amendment.

8.7 Entitlement and Construction Matters. From and after the delivery of the Go-Hard Notice and provided Buyer is not then in material default hereunder:

8.7.1 Seller shall not take or authorize, directly or indirectly, any action which modifies or changes the current entitlements of the Property without the written consent of Buyer.

8.7.2 Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to (a) procure any subdivision or any governmental entitlements, approvals, permits, consents and licenses it deems reasonably necessary to further develop the Property (collectively, the “Development Rights”), and (b) file any reports or other documents and otherwise providing any information relating to the Property required by applicable laws or requested by the applicable governmental agencies in connection therewith. Seller agrees to (a) furnish information reasonably requested by Buyer in connection with the Development Rights and (b) within five (5) business days of request from Buyer, execute any and all reasonably necessary or desired documents, agreements or other items in connection with the Development Rights, including all applications, agreements, plans, plats and similar items; provided that Seller shall have no obligation to execute any agreement that results in a material increase in the obligations or potential liability of Seller.

8.7.3 So long as Buyer has not received written notice that it is in material default of its obligations under this Agreement, Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, may perform or cause to be performed any design, engineering and construction and services in connection with the development of the Property (collectively, the “Work”), including (i) providing any labor, materials, equipment and services, (ii) installing or constructing any additional improvements, (iii) posting any required bonds, guarantees, sureties, and deposits, (iv) obtaining any design documents, architectural plans, drawings, and schematics, and (v) filing any reports and other documents and otherwise providing any information relating to the Property or the Work; provided that (1) any such Work is limited to reasonably minimal site preparation work (it being agreed that Work limited to the establishing and construction of the foundation of a new structure is reasonably minimal site preparation), and (2) no such Work shall alter or change the existing building located on the Property as of the date hereof. Buyer shall perform, or cause to be performed, any Work in a good and workmanlike manner and comply with and give all notices required by laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and lawful orders of public authorities bearing on the Property and the performance of the Work. Buyer shall immediately provide to Seller copies of all notices received by Buyer alleging any failure to comply with applicable laws.

8.7.4 Seller agrees to execute any estoppel, consent or recognition agreement reasonably requested by any lender providing Construction Financing.

9. Disposition of Escrow Deposit.

9.1 If the transaction herein provided shall not close by reason of Seller’s default under this Agreement or the failure of satisfaction of the conditions benefiting Buyer under Section 4 or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 6, then any remaining Escrow Deposit shall be immediately returned to Buyer, and no party shall have any further obligation or liability to the other (except under those provisions of the TIC Agreement or the provisions of this Agreement that expressly survive a termination of this Agreement); provided, however, if the transactions, or some of them, provided for hereunder shall fail to close by reason of Seller’s default, then Buyer shall be entitled to either (1) specifically enforce this Agreement or (2) terminate Buyer’s remaining purchase obligations under this Agreement and obtain a return of any remaining Escrow Deposit, but no other action, for rescission of previously completed transfers of partial interests hereunder, for damages or otherwise, shall be permitted.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN CONTAINED TO THE CONTRARY, IF ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS PROVIDED FOR HEREUNDER SHALL FAIL TO CLOSE BY REASON OF BUYER’S DEFAULT, SELLER SHALL HAVE FULLY PERFORMED OR HAVE TENDERED FULL PERFORMANCE OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND SHALL BE READY, WILLING AND ABLE TO CLOSE AND SELLER HAS GIVEN BUYER WRITTEN NOTICE TO BUYER OF ITS ELECTION TO PROCEED UNDER THIS SENTENCE WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER SUCH DEFAULT, THEN SELLER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO SPECIFICALLY ENFORCE THIS AGREEMENT (AND SELLER SHALL NOT, AS TO THE PENDING TRANSFER OF AN INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY, BE ENTITLED TO THE FOREGOING LIQUIDATED DAMAGES BY REASON OF SUCH DEFAULT OF BUYER, OR TO BRING ANY OTHER ACTION, FOR DAMAGES OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT FOR DAMAGES CUSTOMARILY AVAILABLE IN SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE ACTIONS RESULTING FROM A DELAY IN THE CLOSING, PROVIDED, FURTHER, THAT SUCH SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE ACTION SHALL BE FILED AND PROSECUTED PURSUANT TO AN ARBITRATION PROCEEDING UNDER SECTION 10 OF THIS AGREEMENT.
