NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto mutually agree as follows:
1.PURCHASE AND SALE.
1.1 Property. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and for the consideration herein set forth, Seller agrees to sell and transfer, and Buyer agrees to purchase and acquire, the Membership Interests and all rights, title and privileges of Seller relating thereto.

Property Owner is, or as of the Closing Date will be, the owner of the following (collectively, the “Property”):
1.1.1 The Real Property;
1.1.2 All easements, licenses, interests, rights, privileges, tenements, hereditaments and appurtenances on or in anywise appertaining to the Real Property;
1.1.3 All equipment, tools, machinery, materials, furniture, furnishings, supplies and other tangible personal property owned by Property Owner and located on or used in connection with or arising out of the ownership, management or operation of the Real Property as of the date hereof, as more particularly described in Exhibit “B” attached hereto (collectively, “Personal Property”);
WAS01_41891870v5
1.1.4 All leases and occupancy agreements relating to the Property in effect on the Date of Closing (as hereinafter defined), including all amendments thereto (collectively, “Leases”) (the Leases in effect on the date of this Agreement are identified on Schedule 1 attached hereto);
1.1.5 Subject to Section 6.6 below, all service, maintenance, supply or other contracts relating to the operation of the Property in effect as of the date hereof (including without limitation all warranties and license agreements), which are identified on Schedule 2 attached hereto (collectively, “Contracts”);
1.1.6 All licenses, permits, certificates of occupancy and governmental approvals relating to the Property, including without limitation those identified on Schedule 3 attached hereto (collectively, “Approvals”) and any plans, specifications, studies, reports or surveys relating to the Property; and
1.1.7 All entitlements and intangible personal property in connection with or arising out of the ownership of the Real Property, including, without limitation, all trade names and logos, and, unless otherwise expressly agreed to by Buyer, all web domains, websites, and internet addresses (the “Intangible Property”); provided, however that Seller shall retain a non-exclusive right (with Buyer, Property Owner, and affiliates of each) after the Closing Date to use the name "Glasford" with respect to property owned by Seller or an affiliate of Seller adjacent to the Real Property.
Included in the Property shall be any and all the foregoing items in which any affiliate of Property Owner (including Seller) has any right, title or interest, to the extent the same is used solely in connection with the Real Property unless otherwise expressly agreed to by Buyer; it being understood and agreed that Seller shall cause such affiliate to convey the same to Buyer at Closing.
1.2 No Warranty. Subject to the representations, warranties and covenants of Seller set forth in this Agreement, Seller is selling and Buyer is purchasing the Membership Interests “AS IS WHERE IS” with all faults.
2. PURCHASE PRICE.
The total purchase price (“Purchase Price”) to be paid by Buyer to Seller for the Property shall be FIFTY-THREE MILLION SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($53,600,000.00), payable all in cash.
3. PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE.
The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:
2
WAS01_41891870v5
3.1 Deposit. As part of the Opening of Escrow (as defined below), Buyer shall deliver to Chicago Title Insurance Company (“Escrow Holder”), which has an address of 0000 XxxXxxxxx Xxxx # 000, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, XX 00000, Attn. Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx, the sum of FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($500,000.00) (“Initial Deposit”) in immediately available funds as a good faith deposit. The Initial Deposit and all interest earned thereon shall be collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Deposit“. At Buyer’s discretion, Escrow Holder shall place the Deposit in one or more government insured interest-bearing accounts (at Buyer’s discretion) satisfactory to Seller and Buyer (which shall have no penalty for early withdrawal), and shall not commingle the Deposit with any funds of Escrow Holder or any other person or entity. All interest earned on the Deposit shall be included within the meaning of the term “Deposit” in this Agreement. If Closing occurs in accordance with this Agreement, the Deposit shall be applied against the Purchase Price. The Deposit shall be returned to Buyer within one (1) Business Day if (y) Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.5 below or (z) Escrow fails to close due to (i) Seller’s breach of this Agreement, (ii) the failure of a condition to close under Section 4.2 (other than a failure of Buyer to deliver funds or instruments under Section 4.2.2 or a breach by Buyer under Section 4.2.4), or (iii) a casualty or condemnation event as described in Section 12 below occurs. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by either Seller or Buyer for any reason other than pursuant to Section 6.5, Escrow Holder is authorized to deliver the Deposit to the party hereto entitled to same pursuant to the terms hereof on or before the tenth (10th) Business Day following receipt by Escrow Holder and the non-terminating party of written notice of such termination from the terminating party, unless the other party hereto notifies Escrow Holder that it disputes the right of the other party to receive the Deposit. In such event, Escrow Holder may interplead the Deposit into a court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which the Deposit has been deposited. All attorneys’ fees and costs and Escrow Holder’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with such interpleader shall be assessed against the party that is not awarded the Deposit, or if the Deposit is distributed in part to both parties, then in the inverse proportion of such distribution. As used in this Agreement, “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday on which commercial banks are authorized or required to be closed for business in the State of California.
3.2 Remainder of Purchase Price. On or before the Closing Date, Buyer shall deposit into Escrow immediately available funds in an amount which, when added to the Deposit, will equal the Purchase Price plus any additional amounts necessary to cover costs and/or prorations under this Agreement.
3
WAS01_41891870v5
3.3 Buyer Default; Liquidated Damages. SELLER AND BUYER AGREE THAT, IF THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS IS NOT COMPLETED AND THIS AGREEMENT TERMINATES BECAUSE BUYER MATERIALLY DEFAULTS UNDER OR MATERIALLY BREACHES THIS AGREEMENT (AFTER WRITTEN NOTICE AND A REASONABLE OPPORTUNITY TO CURE), THE DEPOSIT SHALL BE PAID TO SELLER UPON TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND RETAINED BY SELLER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND AS SELLER’S SOLE REMEDY AT LAW OR IN EQUITY. SELLER AND BUYER AGREE THAT, UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT, ACTUAL DAMAGES MAY BE DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN AND THE DEPOSIT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES THAT WILL BE INCURRED BY SELLER IF BUYER MATERIALLY DEFAULTS UNDER OR MATERIALLY BREACHES THIS AGREEMENT AND FAILS TO PURCHASE THE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS.

3.4 Seller Default; Specific Performance. If Seller fails to consummate the sale of the Membership Interests and/or fails to transfer all the Property to Property Owner on or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise materially defaults on its obligations hereunder at or prior to Closing for any reason except failure by Buyer to perform hereunder, or if prior to Closing any one or more of Seller’s representations or warranties are breached in any material respect, and such default or breach is not cured by the earlier of the third (3rd) Business Day after written notice thereof from Buyer or the Closing Date (Buyer hereby agreeing to give such written notice to Seller within three (3) Business Day after Buyer first learns of any such default or breach by Seller, except no notice or cure period shall apply if Seller fails to consummate the sale of the Membership Interests hereunder), Buyer may elect to (a) terminate this Agreement by giving Seller timely written notice of such election prior to or at Closing and recover the Deposit and any and all costs incurred to date, (b) enforce specific performance to consummate the sale of the Membership Interests hereunder, (c) waive said failure or breach and proceed to Closing without any reduction in the Purchase Price, or (d) exercise any other remedies at law or in equity. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement if Buyer fails to deliver to Seller written notice of its intent to file a claim or assert a cause of action for specific performance against Seller on or before ten (10) Business Days following the Outside Closing Date or, having given such notice, fails to file a lawsuit asserting such claim or cause of action in the county in which the Property is located within two months following the Outside Closing Date. Buyer’s remedies shall be limited to those described in this Section 3.4 and Section 13. In the event that Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement under subsection (a) above, then Seller's obligation to reimburse Buyer's costs incurred to date shall be capped at $150,000 plus any rate lock or commitment fees paid by Buyer to any potential lender unless such default or breach by Seller constitutes an Intentional Seller Default (as hereinafter defined. For purposes of this Agreement, “Intentional Seller Default” means any one or more of the following: (a) intentional or grossly negligent breach by Seller of any of its obligations under this Agreement, (b) if Seller had actual knowledge that any representation or warranty was untrue when made, or Seller fraudulently made such representation or warranty, (c) failure to deliver (or cause to deliver) any of the documents required under Section 10 of this Agreement, or (d) any intentional act of Seller taken on or after the Effective Date that results in Purchaser’s inability to consummate the transaction contemplated in this Agreement.

6.2 Access. Commencing upon the execution of this Agreement by Buyer and Seller, Seller shall allow (or cause to be allowed) Buyer or Buyer’s agents, employees, contractors, lenders or representatives access to the Property for purposes of any non-intrusive physical or environmental test, study or inspection of the Property and, to the extent copies are not provided to Buyer by Seller pursuant to Section 6.1, review and copying of Seller’s books and records relating to the Membership Interests and/or the Property and any of the documents described in Section 6.1 above, and other matters necessary in the discretion of Buyer to evaluate and analyze the feasibility of the Membership Interests and the Property for Buyer’s intended use thereof.

8
WAS01_41891870v5
6.3 Title and Survey.
6.3.1 Within three (3) days after the Opening of Escrow, Seller shall cause Escrow Holder to issue to Buyer a current commitment for an owner’s policy of title insurance in the amount of the Purchase Price on an ALTA 2006 form (“Title Commitment”) together with copies of all documents of record reflected therein as exceptions to title at Seller’s sole cost and expense (as provided in Section 11 below). Buyer shall have thirty (30) days following its receipt of the Title Commitment (“Title Objection Period”) in which to notify Seller in writing of any objections Buyer has, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, to any matters shown on the Title Commitment (“Title Objection Notice”). All objections raised by Buyer in the manner herein provided are hereafter called “Objections.” Subject to the limitations set forth in the penultimate sentence of this Section 6.3.1, Seller shall make reasonable efforts to remedy or remove all Objections (or agree irrevocably in writing to remedy or remove all such Objections at or prior to Closing) within fifteen (15) days following Seller’s receipt of the Title Objection Notice (“Seller’s Cure Period”). In the event Seller is unable to remedy or cause the removal of any Objections (or agree irrevocably to do so at or prior to Closing) within Seller’s Cure Period, then Buyer, within ten (10) days after the expiration of Seller’s Cure Period, shall deliver to Seller written notice electing, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, to either (i) terminate this Agreement, or (ii) unconditionally waive any such Objections, failing which Buyer shall conclusively be deemed to have elected (i) above. Any new title or survey information received by Seller or Buyer after the expiration of the Title Objection Period or Seller’s Cure Period, as applicable, from a supplemental title report, survey or other source which is not the result of the acts or omissions of Buyer or its agents, contractors or invitees (each, a “New Title Matter”) shall be subject to the same procedure provided in this Section 6.3 (and the Date of Closing shall be extended commensurately if the Closing would have occurred but for those procedures being implemented for a New Title Matter), except that the Buyer’s Title Objection Period and Seller’s Cure Period for any New Title Matters shall be five (5) Business Days each. Close of Escrow shall be delayed as needed to accommodate such additional time periods. Seller shall have no obligation to cure title objections except financing liens of an ascertainable amount created by, under or through Seller or Property Owner, which liens Seller shall cause to be released at or prior to Closing (with Seller having the right to apply the Purchase Price or a portion thereof for such purpose), and Seller shall deliver the Membership Interests and the Property free and clear of any such financing liens. Seller further agrees to remove any exceptions or encumbrances to title which are voluntarily created by, under or through Seller or Property Owner after the date hereof without Buyer’s consent. The term “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean: the specific exceptions (excluding exceptions that are part of the promulgated title insurance form) in the Title Commitment that Escrow Holder is not permitted to remove; other exceptions to which Buyer has not raised an Objection as provided herein or has subsequently waived such Objection in writing and that Seller is not required to remove as provided above; items shown on the Survey which have not been removed as of the end of the Due Diligence Period; real estate taxes not yet due and payable; and rights of tenants (as tenants only) under the Leases.
9
WAS01_41891870v5
6.3.2 Within three (3) days after the Opening of Escrow, Seller shall provide Buyer with a copy of any existing survey of the Property in Seller’s possession or control. Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, may elect to obtain a new survey or revise, modify, or re-certify an existing survey of the Property as necessary in order for the title department of Escrow Holder to delete the survey exception from title or to otherwise satisfy Buyer’s objectives.
6.4 Buyer’s Due Diligence. Subject to Section 21 below, Buyer shall have twenty-five (25) Business Days from and after the later to occur of (i) the Opening of Escrow and (ii) the date of delivery by Seller to Buyer of the Seller's Deliveries, the Title Commitment and related recorded exception documents, and any existing survey (“Due Diligence Period”) to evaluate and analyze the feasibility of the Membership Interests and the Property for Buyer’s intended use thereof, including, without limitation, the zoning of the Property, the physical, environmental and geotechnical condition of the Property and the economic feasibility of owning the Membership Interests and operating the Property. If, during the Due Diligence Period, Buyer determines that the Membership Interests or the Property are not acceptable for any reason whatsoever in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, Buyer shall have the right, by giving written notice to Seller on or before the last day of the Due Diligence Period, to terminate this Agreement. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless and defend Seller from and against any claims, liabilities, liens, cause of action, expenses, costs, or damages (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and personal injury claims) resulting from the inspection of the Property prior to the Closing Date by Buyer or Buyer’s contractors, employees, representatives, or agents; provided, however, that Buyer shall not be responsible for any losses or expenses resulting from the discovery of adverse information regarding the Membership Interests or the Property. In the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, Buyer shall restore the Property to the extent of any physical change or damage made as a result of the conduct of any inspection or investigation of the Property by Buyer or Buyer’s agents, representatives or contractors to substantially the same condition that existed immediately prior to Buyer’s inspection and investigation. Any provision to the contrary herein notwithstanding, the provisions of the previous two sentences shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason for a period of three (3) months and control over any provisions to the contrary herein.
6.5 Buyer’s Termination Right. If Buyer exercises the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Sections 6.3 (including without limitation for any New Title Matter) or 6.4 hereof, this Agreement shall terminate as of the date the termination notice is given by Buyer (except as to such matters that are expressly specified to survive the termination of this Agreement), and Escrow Holder shall return the Deposit to Buyer If Buyer does not exercise the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Sections 6.3 or Section 6.4 hereof, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the Deposit shall become non-refundable except as provided in Section 3.1 above.
6.6 Contracts. On or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing as to which of the Contracts Buyer elects to have continue after Closing, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion. Seller shall notify the vendors under those Contract(s) which Buyer has not agreed to have continue after Closing and, provided that Closing occurs hereunder, such Contracts shall terminate effective as of the Date of Closing.
10
WAS01_41891870v5
