     2. Purchase and Sale. Seller agrees to sell, and Buyer agrees to purchase,

provisions hereinafter set forth.
     3. Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller as
follows:
     (a) Upon execution of this Agreement by both Buyer and Seller, Buyer shall
deposit the Earnest Money with the Title Company (as defined in Paragraph 6
below). Such Earnest Money shall be held, applied, returned or retained in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     4. Escrow Terms. Upon receipt of the Earnest Money from Buyer, Title

2005, as liquidated damages and in consideration of that certain indemnification
agreement by and between Duke Construction Limited Partnership and Build-A-Bear
Retail Management, Inc., dated December 1, 2005..
     5. Inspection Period. At any time after the Execution Date, Buyer and its
agents shall have the right to enter upon the Real Estate and make all
engineering, environmental and other tests and inspections deemed necessary by
Buyer to satisfy Buyer as to the condition or suitability of the Real Estate.
All such tests shall be at Buyer’s cost and expense. Buyer agrees to immediately
repair any and all damage to the Real Estate arising or resulting from such
inspection by Buyer or its agents, and Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold
Seller harmless from all claims arising or resulting from such inspection or
from the entry of Buyer or its agents onto the Real Estate for any purpose. The
provisions of this Paragraph 5 shall survive Closing or the termination of this
Agreement.
     This Agreement and the obligations of Buyer hereunder are specifically made
contingent upon the following contingency for the benefit of Buyer:
     (a) Receipt by Buyer, by December 22, 2005, from engineers and professional
environmental consultants of its choice, of reports, analyses, and/or written
certifications (the “Environmental Report”) satisfactory to Buyer in its sole
discretion that no Hazardous Materials (as hereinafter defined) exist on or
under the Real Estate, and the Real Estate is not in violation of any federal,
state or local law, ordinance or regulation relating to industrial hygiene or
the environmental conditions on or under the Real Estate , including, without
limitation, soil and groundwater conditions. “Hazardous Materials” shall mean
(i) substances defined as “hazardous substances”, “hazardous materials”, or
“toxic substances” in the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §9601, et seq.; (ii) asbestos in
any form, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, transformers or other equipment
which contain dielectric fluid or other fluids containing levels of
polychlorinated biphenyls in excess of fifty (50) parts per million; and
(iii) any other chemical, material or substance, including, without limitation,
petroleum products, by-products and waste, exposure to which is prohibited,
limited or regulated by any governmental authority or may or could pose a hazard
to the health and safety of the occupants of the Real Estate, or to the soil or
groundwater, including without limitation, any such substances governed by
applicable Ohio law. The above contingency set forth in this Section 5 is for
the benefit of Buyer and may be waived by Buyer in whole or in part.
     Should the contingency set forth in this Section 5 not be satisfied or
waived (as evidenced by Buyer’s failure to timely terminate the Agreement by
written notice to Seller within one day following actual receipt of the
Environmental Report) by Buyer within one day following actual receipt of the
Environmental Report, , then Buyer shall notify Seller of the non-satisfaction
of the above contingency, by written notice, at which time this Agreement will

-2-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

become null and void (except for those provisions which specifically survive the
termination hereof). Should Buyer fail to notify Seller of such non-satisfaction
or waiver, then the contingency in this Section 5 shall be deemed satisfied.
     6. Title Report and Permitted Exceptions.
     A. Seller, at its expense, has, prior to the Execution Date, delivered to
Buyer from Stewart Title Agency of Columbus (“Title Company”) a binder for an
owner’s policy of title insurance on the Real Estate (the “Title Commitment”)
and copies of all recorded documents reflected as exceptions thereon. All
exceptions listed on the Title Commitment shall be deemed “Permitted Exceptions”
(except for those conditions the Title Company will agree to eliminate upon
receipt of an affidavit from Seller, sufficient to delete the standard
exceptions, or upon receipt of a survey, and except for any mortgages, deeds of
trust or other liens or encumbrances on the Real Estate, all of which are to be
released prior to Closing). Seller agrees to pay all Title Company charges for
or in connection with the Title Commitment.
     B. Buyer’s obligation to close under this Agreement is contingent upon the
Title Company issuing to Buyer at Closing an ALTA Owner’s Policy of Title
Insurance (the “Title Policy”) in the amount of the Purchase Price and
containing no exceptions other than the Permitted Exceptions and current taxes
and assessments not yet due and payable. All mortgages, deeds of trust or other
liens or encumbrances on the Real Estate shall be released prior to Closing and
shall not appear as exceptions to the Title Policy. The standard, preprinted
exceptions shall be deleted from the Title Policy. If Buyer is unable to obtain
a marked up and signed Title Commitment representing the Title Policy on the
Closing Date, Buyer may terminate this Agreement, and the parties shall be
released from all further obligations hereunder, except those which specifically
survive the termination hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Seller shall, at Closing, pay all premiums and charges, but
not endorsement charges, for or in connection with the Title Policy.
     7. Survey. Seller has delivered to Buyer a staked boundary survey of the
Real Estate (the “Survey”) prepared by a registered land surveyor selected by
Seller. Buyer, at its expense, may update the Survey at its option (the “Updated
Survey”). The Updated Survey shall (a) be completed in accordance with the
minimum standard detail requirements for an ALTA/ACSM survey and be certified to
Seller, Buyer, Buyer’s lender and the Title Company by such surveyor; (b) have
one perimeter description of the Real Estate; (c) show all easements,
rights-of-way, setback lines, encroachments and other matters affecting the use
or development of the Real Estate; and (d) show the acreage of the Real Estate.
     8. Cooperation of Seller. Seller shall assist Buyer and its
representatives, whenever reasonably requested by Buyer, in obtaining
information about the Real Estate, provided that Buyer shall reimburse Seller
for any expenses incurred by Seller in connection therewith.
     9. Taxes and Assessments. Buyer will assume and agree to pay (i) so much of
the real estate taxes and assessments assessed against the Real Estate which
first become due and payable during the calendar year in which such closing
occurs as shall be allocable to Buyer for the period on and after the Closing,
and Seller shall pay the balance of such taxes for such calendar year, using,
for Closing purposes, the tax rate and valuation assessment existing at the
Closing Date if the applicable tax rate or assessment has not then been
determined, and all real estate taxes and assessments first becoming due and
payable after the year during which closing occurs. Seller shall pay all real
estate taxes not assumed by Buyer. Any taxes and assessments not assumed by
Buyer and not paid by Seller at or prior to Closing shall be allowed to Buyer as
a credit against the cash payment required on Closing, and Seller shall not be
further liable for such taxes or assessments. Seller shall pay any and all
transfer taxes imposed by the county, state or municipality in which the Real
Estate is located.
     10. Representations, Warranties and Covenants by Seller. In order to induce
Buyer to purchase the Real Estate, Seller makes the following representations
and warranties, which representations and warranties shall survive the Closing
for a period of one year hereunder and shall inure to the benefit of Buyer, its
successors and permitted assigns, and shall be considered made as of the date
hereof and as of the Closing Date:

-3-

     A. Seller owns good and marketable fee title to the Real Estate and has all
requisite power and authority to execute this Agreement and the closing
documents described herein.
     B. Seller has no actual knowledge of any action, litigation or condemnation
proceeding pending in any court or before any governmental agency by any person
affecting the Real Estate. If Seller receives actual knowledge of any such

right, if there is a materially adverse impact on Buyer’s intended use or
development of the Real Estate as a result thereof, to terminate this Agreement.
     C. To the best of Seller’s knowledge, all utility charges for the Real
Estate payable by Seller have been paid, and no utility is making any claims for
any due or past due statements. To the best of Seller’s knowledge, utilities are

and the Real Estate is zoned properly for Buyer’s intended development pursuant
to the construction contract (“Construction Contract”) to be signed by the
parties or their affiliates of even date herewith.
     D. To the best of Seller’s knowledge, the conveyance of the Real Estate
pursuant hereto will not violate any applicable statute, ordinance, governmental
restriction or regulation or any private restriction or agreement.
     E. To the best of Seller’s knowledge, there are no violations of any
federal, state, local or other governmental building, zoning, health, safety,
platting, subdivision, environmental, or other law, ordinance, regulation, or
private restriction affecting the Real Estate.
     If Seller receives any such notice of violation between the date of this
Agreement and the Closing Date, Seller shall give Buyer written notice thereof,
and thereupon Buyer shall have the right, if there is a materially adverse
impact on Buyer’s intended use or development of the Real Estate as a result
thereof, to terminate this Agreement.
     F. No notice of any special assessments against the Real Estate has been
received by Seller.
     G. There are no parties in possession of any portion of the Real Estate as
lessees, tenants at sufferance or trespassers.
     H. Other than this Agreement, there are no sale contracts, options to
purchase, leases, rights of first refusal or other agreements of sale or lease
for or affecting the Real Estate.
     Buyer may elect to close the transaction described in this Agreement with
knowledge of a breach by Seller of one or more of the foregoing representations
and warranties without such election constituting a waiver or release by Buyer
of any claims due to such breach.
     Buyer acknowledges that it has had or will have the opportunity to examine
the Real Estate. Seller (or any of its agents or representative) has not made
and does not make, and is unwilling to make under this Agreement, any
representations as to the physical condition, use or any other matter or thing
affecting or related to the Real Estate, except as may be expressly set forth
herein. Buyer acknowledges that no such representations have been made, and
Buyer agrees to take the Real Estate “AS IS”.
     11. Damage, Destruction and Eminent Domain. Risk of loss to the Real Estate
shall remain in Seller until the Closing Date.
     A. If, prior to the Closing Date, the Real Estate or any substantial part
thereof is damaged or destroyed by fire, the elements, or by any other cause of
whatever nature, Buyer shall have the option to either: (i) terminate this
Agreement by written notice delivered to Seller within thirty (30) days after
the date Buyer receives written notice from Seller notifying Buyer of such
damage; or (ii) proceed to close the transaction contemplated hereunder despite

Buyer’s election, either (x) repair such damage or destruction prior to the
Closing, at Seller’s sole expense, or (y) reimburse Buyer for the cost of
repairing the same by allowing Buyer to deduct such cost from the Purchase Price
payable to Seller at the Closing, or (z) assign to Buyer Seller’s right to make
claim under and receive the proceeds from all policies insuring Seller against
any such loss or damage.
     B. If, prior to Closing, the Real Estate or any material part thereof shall
be taken by eminent domain, Buyer may, at its option, by written notice to
Seller, terminate this Agreement.. If, despite said material taking, Buyer
elects to proceed to close the transaction contemplated hereunder or if there is
less than a material taking, there shall be no reduction in or abatement of the
Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title
and interest in and to any award made or to be made in the condemnation
proceeding.
     12. Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Real Estate (the

     20. Partial Invalidity. If any term, covenant or condition of this
Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity

and the same agreement.
     (d) The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be for the sole
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, and
none of the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be, nor shall they be
construed to be, for the benefit of any third party.
     (e) Time is of the essence with respect to the duties and obligations of
the parties hereunder.
     24. Like-Kind Exchange. Seller shall have the right to identify other real
estate of like kind which it desires to acquire in exchange for the Real Estate
(the “Replacement Real Estate”) in a transaction that Seller intends to qualify
as a tax-free exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. Buyer
shall reasonably cooperate, at Seller’s cost, with Seller in order that Seller
may structure all or part of its sale of the Real Estate as such tax-free
exchange, provided that (i) the Closing Date hereunder is not delayed, and

liabilities, losses, damages,

-6-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

claims, costs, and expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees and
costs) incurred by Buyer as a result of or in connection with its cooperation.
If at the time of Closing of Buyer’s purchase of the Real Estate hereunder,
Seller has not identified or is not ready to acquire the Replacement Real
Estate, Seller shall have the right to assign all of its right, title and
interest in and to this Agreement to a qualified intermediary.

the following matters:

Construction Limited Partnership (“DCLP”), on or before the Closing Date

Estate, such contract to be in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto and
incorporated by reference herein.
     Should the contingency set forth in this Section 25 not be satisfied or
waived within the time allowed above, then this Agreement will become null and
void (except for the provisions herein which expressly survive this Agreement).
     26. Default.
     A. If Seller defaults in its obligations hereunder, Buyer may, by notice to
Seller, terminate this Agreement, in which event the Earnest Money shall be
refunded to Buyer, or Buyer may exercise any and all remedies available at law
or in equity.
     B. If Buyer defaults in the performance of any of its obligations
hereunder, Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement, and may
exercise any and all remedies available at law or in equity.

as of the date first above written.
