Buyer shall have thirty (30) days after the Effective Date (the "Financing Contingency Period") to procure a commitment for financing of its acquisition of the Property on terms that are satisfactory to Buyer in its reasonable discretion; provided, however, that Buyer shall not reject those terms of a commitment that provides at least sixty percent (60%) of the Purchase Price (the "Financing Commitment"). Buyer shall use diligent good faith efforts to obtain the Financing Commitment during the Financing Contingency Period. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller upon receipt of the Financing Commitment. The parties hereto hereby agree that in the event Buyer is unable to obtain the Financing Commitment during the Financing Contingency Period, then Buyer shall have the right, upon written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the Financing Contingency Period, to terminate this Agreement. If Buyer fails to notify Seller of Buyer's receipt or failure to receive the Financing Commitment in good faith prior to the expiration of the Financing Contingency Period, then Buyer will be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement. If Buyer elects to terminate or is deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement, then (a) the Nonrefundable Initial Xxxxxxx Money Portion shall be paid to Seller and (b) the Refundable Initial Xxxxxxx Money Portion shall be returned to Buyer, and neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except those arising under this Agreement that expressly survive the termination hereof. If Buyer obtains the Financing Commitment or waives the Financing Contingency prior to the expiration of the Financing Contingency Period, then (i) the Refundable Initial Xxxxxxx Money Portion shall be non-refundable and applicable towards the Purchase Price, (ii) Buyer shall deliver the Increased Deposit to the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 3(b) above and (iii) this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the parties shall proceed to Closing.

b. Board Approval Contingency. Seller's obligations under this Agreement are conditioned upon Seller obtaining approval ("Board Approval") from its respective board of directors ("Seller's Board") of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of its receipt of Board Approval. The parties hereto hereby agree that in the event Seller is unable to obtain Board Approval within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date (the "Board Approval Contingency Period"), then Seller shall have the right, upon written notice to Buyer on or prior to the expiration of the Board Approval Contingency Period, to terminate this Agreement. If Seller fails to notify Buyer of Seller's receipt or failure to receive Board Approval prior to the expiration of the Board Approval Contingency Period, then Seller shall be deemed to have not received Board Approval and deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement. If Seller notifies Buyer of its failure to receive Board Approval (or Seller is deemed to have failed to receive Board Approval and elected to terminate this Agreement), then the Xxxxxxx Money (including the Nonrefundable Initial Xxxxxxx Money Portion) shall be returned to Buyer, and neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except those arising under this Agreement that expressly survive the termination hereof.

thereto (the "Leases"), and (ii) contracts pertaining to the ownership or operation of the Property, which shall include maintenance or service contracts, installment purchase contracts or leases of personal property or fixtures used in connection with the Property and contracts associated with the operation of the restaurant business at the Property, but specifically excluding Brewery Contracts (as defined below) (collectively, "Vendor Contracts"). For the avoidance of doubt, Vendor Contracts shall not include any contracts specifically associated with and used in the operation of the commercial brewery business formerly operated on the Property (the "Brewery Contracts"). Buyer shall accept and assume all Leases at the Closing. Seller shall, at its option, retain or terminate, or cause to be retained or terminated, all Brewery Contracts at the Closing. With respect to the Vendor Contracts only, on or before the expiration of the Financing Contingency Period, Buyer shall furnish Seller with a schedule listing those Vendor Contracts that are approved by Buyer and to be assigned by Seller (to the extent assignable) and assumed by Buyer at Closing. In the event Buyer gives Seller notice of disapproval of one or more of the Vendor Contracts, Seller shall terminate the same by the Closing, to the extent such contracts are terminable without penalty. Failure of Buyer to timely notify Seller of its disapproval of any Vendor Contract on or prior to the expiration of the Financing Contingency Period shall be deemed Buyer’s acceptance of such Vendor Contract. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary to the foregoing, if any disapproved Vendor Contract is (a) not terminable or (b) not terminable without penalty, Buyer shall either accept and assume such Vendor Contract or pay the applicable termination penalty thereunder. Buyer shall be solely responsible for obtaining any required consents to assumption of a contract and the payment of any assumption or related fees with respect to any Vendor Contract, provided that Seller shall cooperate with Buyer's efforts to obtain any such consents but shall not be required to incur any out-of-pocket expenses or liability in doing so. Seller shall transfer all of Seller's interest in the Leases and transferable Vendor Contracts as provided in Section 17.

d. Access. During the Financing Contingency Period and solely for purposes of satisfying the Buyer's obligations or conditions under the Financing Commitment, Seller shall permit Buyer, Buyer's lender and Buyer's lender's agents, at Buyer's sole expense and risk, to enter the Property at reasonable times and upon reasonable advance notice to Seller subject to the rights of and after legal notice to tenants, to conduct inspections concerning the Property and improvements, including without limitation, the structural condition of improvements, hazardous materials, pest infestation, soils conditions, sensitive areas, wetlands, or other matters affecting the feasibility of the Property for Buyer’s intended use. Buyer shall schedule any entry onto the Property with Seller in advance and shall comply with Seller's reasonable requirements including those relating to security, confidentiality, and disruption of Seller's tenants. Buyer shall not perform any invasive testing including environmental inspections beyond a phase I assessment or contact the tenants or property management personnel without obtaining the Seller's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer shall restore the Property and improvements to the same condition they were in prior to inspection. Buyer shall be solely responsible for all costs of its inspections and feasibility analysis and has no authority to bind the Property for purposes of statutory liens. Buyer agrees to indemnify and defend Seller from all liens, costs, claims, and expenses, including attorneys' and experts' fees, arising from or relating to entry onto or inspection of the Property by Buyer and its agents. This agreement to indemnify and defend Seller shall survive closing and any termination. Buyer may continue to enter the Property in accordance with the foregoing terms and conditions after the expiration of the Financing Contingency Period (and provided Buyer has not elected to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 5(a) above) only for the purpose of satisfying any financing conditions under the Financing Commitment.

REAL PROPERTY DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. Buyer waives the right to receive a seller disclosure statement (“Form 17-Commercial”) if required by RCW 64.06. However, if Seller would otherwise be required to provide Buyer with a Form 17-Commercial, and if the answer to any of the questions in the section of the Form 17-Commercial entitled “Environmental” would be “yes,” then Buyer does not waive the receipt of the “Environmental” section of the Form 17-Commercial which shall be provided by Seller.

If Buyer fails to so notify Seller of any such Objectionable Title Matters, all exceptions and other matters appearing in the Title Commitment existing at the expiration of the Financing Contingency Period shall be deemed accepted by Buyer and included as Permitted Exceptions (as defined below). If Buyer timely notifies Seller in writing of any such Objectionable Title Matters (such writing “Buyer’s Title Notice”), Seller, in Seller’s sole discretion, may, but shall have no obligation to, remove or cure such Objectionable Title Matters on or prior to Closing. Seller shall be deemed to have given notice to Buyer that Seller refuses to cure any such Objectionable Title Matters, which Seller may so do in its sole discretion, unless Seller, within four (4) days after receipt of Buyer’s Title Notice, shall notify Buyer in writing (the “Seller’s Title Notice”) that Seller will either attempt or refuse to cure such Objectionable Title Matters. If Seller’s Title Notice indicates that Seller refuses to cure said Objectionable Title Matters (or if Seller is deemed to refuse to cure said Objectionable Title Matters), Buyer may (a) terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Financing Contingency Period, in which event the Nonrefundable Initial Xxxxxxx Money Portion shall be paid to the Seller and the Refundable Initial Xxxxxxx Money Portion shall be returned to Buyer and neither party shall have further rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein, or (b) if Buyer fails to so terminate, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived such Objectionable Title Matters and accept that title to the Real Property is subject thereto, in which event there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, at its cost, shall be obligated to cure or remove by Closing all mortgages and deeds of trust against the Real Property any other monetary liens, including mechanics’ liens and materialmen’s liens related to an act or omission of Seller, but excluding any liens for real property taxes not yet due and payable and matters created by Buyer or any of its affiliates and any judgement lien or attachment being contested by Seller in good faith.

The term “Mandatory Cure Items” shall mean, collectively, (y) all mortgages and deeds of trust against the Property and (z) any mechanic’s, materialman’s or supplier’s liens resulting from work performed at the Property by or on behalf of Seller, but excluding (1) any liens for real property taxes not yet due and payable, (2) matters created by Buyer or any of its affiliates, and (3) any judgment lien or attachment being contested by Seller in good faith.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Seller and Buyer agree as follows:

AMENDMENT


1.	Definition. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to such terms in the Purchase and Sale Agreement.


2.	Purchase Price. Section 2 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:

"2. Purchase Price. The total purchase price for the Property is Twenty Four Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($24,500,000) (the "Purchase Price"). The Purchase Price, less the Xxxxxxx Money (as defined in Section 3 below) and the Equipment Shortfall Funds (as defined in Section 14(d) below), shall be payable to Seller in cash at Closing. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the parcels comprising the Real Property and the Assets as set forth in Section 24 below."

Holdback Funds. Section 14(d) of the Purchase and Sale Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof (for the avoidance of doubt, the final paragraph of Section 14 shall not be deleted and is not deemed to be deleted by this Second Addendum):

"d. In connection with the foregoing, Buyer hereby agrees to deposit within sixty (60) days after Closing (the "Equipment Shortfall Deposit Date") (time being of the essence) Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the “Equipment Shortfall Funds”) with Escrow Agent. In the event any portion of the Brewing and Bottling Equipment is sold prior to the Equipment Shortfall Deposit Date, Buyer shall promptly (i) notify Seller and Escrow Agent of such sale (such notice to be accompanied with reasonably detailed evidence and support of such sale and such additional information and support as reasonably requested by Seller) and (ii) deposit with Escrow Agent, no later than one (1) business day after such sale, from the gross proceeds to the Buyer from such sale an amount equal to the Equipment Shortfall Funds (or if the gross proceeds are less than the Equipment Shortfall Funds, then such lesser amount). To secure Buyer's obligations to deposit the Equipment Shortfall Funds with Escrow Agent as required above, Buyer hereby as of the date hereof (i) irrevocably grants, pledges and assigns to Seller a continuing first priority lien on and a security interest in all of Buyer's right,

title and interest in the Brewing and Bottling Equipment, whether now existing or hereafter acquired, and (ii) authorizes Seller to file such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements covering and/or describing the Brewing and Bottling Equipment as Seller reasonably determines to be necessary or advisable to evidence and perfect its security interest in the Brewing and Bottling Equipment. Upon Escrow Agent's written confirmation of timely receipt of the Equipment Shortfall Funds, Seller shall file (or caused to be filed) a Uniform Commercial Code financing statement amendment terminating its security interest in the Brewing and Bottling Equipment."

"e. The parties hereto hereby agree that Buyer shall attempt in good faith to sell the Brewing and Bottling Equipment after Closing and, if the gross proceeds received by Buyer from such sale of the Brewing and Bottling Equipment are less than Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000.00), then, Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller and Escrow Agent of such sale and shortfall (such notice to be accompanied with reasonably detailed evidence and support of such sale and shortfall and followed with such additional evidence and support as may be reasonably requested by Seller) (such notice, the "Buyer Sale Shortfall Notice"). Seller shall have five (5) business days after Seller's receipt of the Buyer Sale Shortfall Notice (and all documents and evidence requested by Seller) to approve or disapprove of any disbursement of the Equipment Shortfall Funds; provided, however, that if Seller fails to notify Escrow Agent of its approval or disapproval within said five (5) business day period, Seller shall be deemed to have approved same. For the avoidance of doubt, Escrow Agent may only disburse the Equipment Shortfall Funds to Buyer upon the approval or deemed approval by Seller. Not more than three (3) business days after Escrow Agent's receipt of Seller's approval (or deemed approval), Escrow Agent shall disburse the Equipment Shortfall Funds as follows: (1) to Buyer, the difference between $3,500,000 and the gross proceeds of the actual sale of the Brewing and Bottling Equipment (not to exceed the Equipment Shortfall Funds); provided, however, if Seller's approval notice instructs Escrow Agent to disburse an alternative amount, then, notwithstanding the foregoing, Escrow Agent shall disburse such amount to Buyer (not to exceed the Equipment Shortfall Funds) and (2) to Seller any amounts remaining from the Equipment Shortfall Funds (including any interest earned thereon) after the disbursement to Buyer as described in clause (1) above.

"f. In the event the gross proceeds received by Buyer from such sale of the Brewing and Bottling Equipment are an amount equal to or greater than Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,500,000.00), Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller, with a copy to Escrow Agent, of such sale and excess (such notice, the "Buyer Sale Excess Notice"). Not more than three (3) business days after Escrow Agent's receipt of the Buyer Sale Excess Notice, Escrow Agent shall disburse the Equipment Shortfall Funds to Seller (and Buyer agrees that all such funds shall be due and owing to Seller)."

"g. In the event Buyer deposits the Equipment Shortfall Funds with Escrow Agent and Buyer (i) fails to sell the Brewing and Bottling Equipment by the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date or (ii) fails to timely provide the Buyer Sale Shortfall Notice or Buyer Sale Excess Notice in accordance with this Section 14, then, in each case, Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver all Equipment Shortfall Funds to Seller (and Buyer agrees that all such funds shall be due and owing to Seller)."

"h. If Buyer fails to (i) timely deposit the Equipment Shortfall Funds with Escrow Agent or, (ii) in the event of a sale of the Brewing and Bottling Equipment prior to the Equipment Shortfall Deposit Date, timely deposit all gross proceeds from such sale with Escrow Agent, (A) the Equipment Shortfall Funds shall bear interest at twenty percent (20%) per annum from the date such amount was due to and including the date of payment, (B) Seller shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Brewing and Bottling Equipment of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted and (C) Seller may sell or otherwise dispose (or may cause to be sold or disposed) all or any part of the Brewing and Bottling Equipment and any proceeds from any such sale or disposition shall be applied by Seller as follows:

(1) first, to the payment of Seller's costs and expenses in connection with such sale or disposition, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Seller and reasonable attorneys' fees, (2) second, to the payment to Seller of the Equipment Shortfall Funds (plus any interest incurred thereon), and (3) finally, to the payment to Buyer of any surplus then remaining."

RECITALS

A. Seller and Buyer have entered into that certain Commercial & Investment Real Estate Purchase & Sale Agreement, dated November 29, 2017, as amended by (i) that certain Addendum of Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated December 29, 2017, and (ii) that certain Second Addendum of Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated January __, 2018 (collectively, the "Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which Seller has agreed to sell and Buyer has agreed to purchase certain real and personal property located at 00000 XX 000xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the "Property"), on the terms and conditions contained therein;

B. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Buyer has agreed to deposit with Escrow Agent within sixty (60) days after Closing (time being of the essence) an amount equal to $500,000 (such sum, the "Holdback Funds") which shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:

1.Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used in this Escrow Agreement and not otherwise defined herein are used with the meanings given in the Purchase Agreement.

2.Delivery of the Holdback Funds.

(a)Seller and Buyer hereby appoint Escrow Agent to be and act as escrow agent, and Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment, to hold in escrow the Holdback Funds.

(b)Seller hereby authorizes Escrow Agent to withhold and deposit into the Escrow Account (as defined below), in trust, the Holdback Funds out of the proceeds of the Closing for the purposes of securing the obligations described above. The Holdback Funds shall be held, used, and applied solely pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement.

(c)Escrow Agent shall establish an interest bearing FDIC insured account (the "Escrow Account"), and will hold the Holdback Funds in escrow in the Escrow Account until released to Buyer or Seller in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement. All interest earned thereon shall belong to Seller.

3.Equipment Sale.

(a)Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Buyer has agreed to use good faith efforts to sell all of the Brewing and Bottling Equipment (as identified on Exhibit A) (such sale, the "Equipment Sale") within 180 days of the Closing (such date, the "Outside Date").

(b)Buyer will discuss with Seller, and keep Seller reasonably apprised of, the terms and conditions of any sale of all or any portion of the Brewing and Bottling Equipment and within a reasonable period of each such sale furnish to Seller a record of sales made by it or its sales agent.

4.Instructions to Escrow Agent.

(a)Promptly following the timely completion of the Equipment Sale on or before the Outside Date:

(i)In the event the gross proceeds received by Buyer from such Equipment Sale are an amount less than $3,500,000, Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller, with a copy to Escrow Agent, of such sale and shortfall (such notice to be accompanied with reasonably detailed evidence and support of such sale and shortfall and followed with such additional evidence and support as may be reasonably requested by Seller) (such notice, the

"Buyer Sale Shortfall Notice"). Seller shall have five (5) business days after Seller's receipt of the Buyer Sale Shortfall Notice (and all documents and evidence requested by Seller) to approve or disapprove of any disbursement of the Holdback Funds; provided, however, that if Seller fails to notify Escrow Agent of its approval or disapproval within said five (5) business day period, Seller shall be deemed to have approved same. For the avoidance of doubt, Escrow Agent may only disburse the Holdback Funds to Buyer upon the approval or deemed approval by Seller. Not more than three (3) business days after Escrow Agent's receipt of Seller's approval (or deemed approval), Escrow Agent shall disburse the Holdback Funds as follows: (A) to Buyer, the difference between $3,500,000 and the gross proceeds of the actual sale of the Brewing and Bottling Equipment (not to exceed the Holdback Funds); provided, however, if Seller's approval notice instructs Escrow Agent to disburse an alternative amount, then, notwithstanding the foregoing, Escrow Agent shall disburse such amount to Buyer (not to exceed the Holdback Funds), and (B) to Seller, any amounts remaining from the Holdback Funds (including any interest earned thereon) after the disbursement to Buyer as described in clause (A) above; or

(ii)In the event the gross proceeds received by Buyer from such Equipment Sale are an amount greater than $3,500,000, Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller, with a copy to Escrow Agent, of such sale and excess (such notice, the "Buyer Sale Excess Notice"). Not more than three (3) business days after Escrow Agent's receipt of the Buyer Sale Excess Notice, Escrow Agent shall disburse the Holdback Funds to Seller and Buyer agrees that all such funds shall be due and owing to Seller.

(b)In the event Buyer (i) fails to complete the Equipment Sale on or prior to the Outside Date or (ii) fails to timely provide the Buyer Sale Shortfall Notice or Buyer Sale Excess Notice in accordance with this Section 4, then, in each case, Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver all Holdback Funds to Seller (and Buyer agrees that all such funds shall be due and owing to Seller).

(c)If: (i) there is any dispute between Buyer and Seller regarding any disbursement of the Holdback Funds; or (ii) Escrow Agent is uncertain in its commercially reasonable judgment as to Escrow Agent's obligations hereunder, Escrow Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation to: (A) refrain from taking any action and retain the Holdback Funds in the Escrow Account until otherwise directed by a final order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or by a written agreement signed by Seller and Buyer; or (B) on written notice to Seller and Buyer, take such affirmative steps as it may, at its option, elect in order to terminate its duties as Escrow Agent, including, without limitation, depositing the Holdback Funds with a court of competent jurisdiction and the commencement of an action for interpleader, the costs of which shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer.

5.Limitation on Duties and Liabilities of Escrow Agent.

(a)Escrow Agent shall not have any duties or liabilities except those set forth in this Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for: (i) any loss, diminution in value, or failure to achieve a greater profit as a result of such a deposit or investment; or (ii) any interest or other income on the Holdback Funds except as is actually earned and received.

(b)Escrow Agent shall have no liability to Buyer or Seller regarding the sufficiency, correctness, genuineness, collection, or validity of any signature, notice, request, waiver, consent, receipt, or other document which appears to Escrow Agent to be genuine (whether or not an original or a photocopy) and the identity, authority, or rights of any person executing or depositing the same. Escrow Agent may assume that any person purporting to give notice on behalf of any Party in accordance with the provisions of this Escrow Agreement has been duly authorized to do so.

(c)The Parties acknowledge that Escrow Agent: (i) is acting solely as a depository at their request and for their convenience; (ii) shall not be deemed to be the agent of any of the Parties; and (iii) shall not be liable to any of the Parties for any act or omission on Escrow Agent's part, other than as a result of Escrow Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(d)All commercially reasonable and necessary costs and expenses incurred by Escrow Agent in performing its duties as Escrow Agent, including but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer.

(e)If there is any conflict between the provisions of this Escrow Agreement and any additional or supplementary instructions given to Escrow Agent regarding the release of all or any portion of the Holdback Funds, the terms of this Escrow Agreement shall control.

6.Termination of this Escrow Agreement. This Escrow Agreement shall terminate upon (a) Escrow Agent's delivery of all of the Holdback Funds held hereunder to Seller or Buyer as provided herein; or (b) the transfer of such Holdback Funds to a substitute escrow agent or a court of competent jurisdiction, in either case, pursuant to

the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement, whereupon Escrow Agent's obligations, responsibilities and liability hereunder shall terminate.

7.Assignment. The rights and liabilities of the Parties shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors, executors, and administrators, as the case may be, provided that no Party may assign or delegate its obligations under this Escrow Agreement either in whole or in part without the prior written consent of Seller and Buyer.

8.Governing Law. This Escrow Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles.

9.Severability. If any provision of this Escrow Agreement is for any reason found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Escrow Agreement. Upon such determination that any term is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Escrow Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

10.Complete Understanding; Modification. This Escrow Agreement constitutes the full and complete understanding and agreement of the Parties and supersedes all prior understandings and agreements. Any waiver, modification, or amendment of any provision of this Escrow Agreement shall be effective only if in writing and signed by the Parties.

11.Waiver. The failure of any Party to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Escrow Agreement by any other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of that term, covenant, or condition, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of any right or power at any one time be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of that right or power for all or any other time.

12.Notices. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sent by hand messenger, reputable overnight courier or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by facsimile or email, provided, however, that if any notice sent by facsimile or email such notice shall also be sent by one of the other specified methods within one business day thereafter.
