Exhibit 10.40
AMENDMENT TO PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
----------------------------------------
This is an Amendment to that "Purchase and Sale Agreement," ("Agreement")
between NOBEL LEARNING COMMUNITIES, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Seller"), and
PARTNERSHIP WITH PARENTS, INC., an Arizona not for profit corporation ("Buyer"),
as previously amended. In compliance with Paragraph 14.10 with respect to
"Amendments" of said Agreement, for good and valuable consideration, including
the covenants and premises set forth herein, the receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree to amend the Agreement as follows:
1. The following Section 12.4 is hereby added to Section 12:
12.4 Buyer and Seller agree that, if the first tuition earned for
reimbursements, including Proposition 301 earned payments, for the 2003-2004
school year ("Reimbursements") from the State of Arizona ("State") are released
prior to the Closing date under this Agreement, then such Reimbursements shall
be prorated as of the date of Closing and shown on the closing statement, with a
debit to the party to whom the State has made the payment of the Reimbursements.
The portion of the Reimbursements attributable to those days up to and including
the date of Closing, during which Seller owned the Property, shall belong to the
Seller ("Seller's Share"). The balance of the Reimbursements shall belong to the
Buyer ("Buyer's Share"). The calculation of the Reimbursements is set forth on
Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof. If the State does not
release the Reimbursements until after the date of Closing hereunder, then the
parties agree that the party who receives the Reimbursements from the State will
immediately and without the necessity of further demand by the other party,
remit to the other party its respective share, i.e. Buyer's Share or Seller's
Share as the case may be, together with written evidence from the State of the
total amounts paid and indicating what months are covered by such
Reimbursements. A party's failure to perform its obligations hereunder shall
survive the Closing and shall entitle the other party to take all necessary
legal or equitable action to collect its respective share of the Reimbursements.
2. Except as modified herein, the Agreement remains unmodified and in full
force and effect. Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined, herein
shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Seller and Buyer have caused this instrument to be executed
in a manner and form sufficient to bind them effective the 13th day of August,
2003.
