          iii. a detailed organizational structure and staffing plans,

               satisfaction, including hours of operation and customer

          ----------

          Dealer shall operate in accordance with the Business Plan and shall
          actively and effectively promote the sale of Nissan Products to
          customers located throughout the Primary Market Area. In particular,
          Dealer shall implement the plans and meet the performance standards
          established in the Business Plan.

     C.   ANNUAL BUSINESS PLAN REVIEW
          ---------------------------

          Dealer shall review and update its Business Plan annually, or more
          often if needed, and submit it to Nissan for joint review. Updated
          Plans will include a performance evaluation and any proposed

<PAGE>
 
          FAA and Dealer agree that changes to the proposed Plan are necessary,
          Dealer will make such changes and resubmit its Plan.

               I.  PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
                   ----------------------

               FAA and Dealer will use this analysis as a basis for jointly
               evaluating Dealer's performance so that any necessary
               improvements can be made. In evaluating Dealer's sales
               performance, in addition to those factors established in the
               Standard Provisions, Nissan will give consideration to: (a) sales
               volume or market share objectives for Nissan Products set by the
               parties, and (b) sales and market penetration achieved by Dealer
               in each of the various segments in which Nissan Vehicles compete.

               II. PLAN MODIFICATIONS
                   ------------------

               Plans for operations are subject to update, but modifications can

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

     A.   DEALERSHIP ASSETS OR OWNERSHIP INTERESTS

          addition to its rights under Articles Third and Fourth of the Dealer
          Agreement and Section 15.B of the Standard Provisions, Nissan shall
          have the right and option to purchase the dealership assets or
          ownership interests pursuant to this Paragraph 10.

          ii.  After being exercised, Nissan's option may be assigned to any
               party, and Nissan hereby agrees to guarantee the full payment of

               assignee or successor in interest of Dealer or purchaser of
               Dealer's assets. Nissan shall have no obligation to exercise its
               rights hereunder.

          iii. If Dealer has entered into a bona fide written buy/sell
               agreement respecting its Nissan dealership, Nissan's right under
               this Paragraph 10 shall be a right of first refusal, enabling
               Nissan to assume the prospective purchaser's rights and
               obligations under such buy/sell agreement. The purchase price and
               other terms of sale shall be those set forth in such agreement
               and any related documents. Nissan may request, FAA and Dealer
               agrees to provide all other documents relating to Dealer and to
               the proposed transfer, including, but not limited to, those
               reflecting any other agreements or understandings between the
               parties to the buy/sell agreement. Nissan shall have sixty 960)
               days from its receipt of all such documents in which to exercise
               its right of first refusal hereunder. If Dealer refuses either to

<PAGE>
 
               provide such documentation or to state in writing that no such
               documents exist, it shall be presumed that the agreement is not
               bona fide.

          iv.  In the absence of a bona fide written buy/sell agreement, Nissan
               shall have the option, but no obligation, under this Paragraph 10
               to purchase the principal assets of Dealer utilized in the
               Dealership Operations, including real property and leasehold
               interest, and to terminate this Agreement and all rights granted
               Dealer hereunder. If the Dealership Facilities are leased by
               Dealer from an affiliated company, the right to purchase the
               principal assets of Dealer shall include the right to lease the
               Dealership Facilities. The purchase price of Dealer's assets
               shall be at their fair market value as a going concern as
               negotiated by the parties and the other terms of sale shall be
               those agreed by Dealer and Nissan. If Dealer and Nissan are
               unable to reach a negotiated settlement in a reasonable time, the
               price and other terms of sale shall be established by arbitration
               pursuant to the Dispute Resolution Process established in
               Paragraph 12 hereof. If Nissan determines that the buy/sell
               agreement is not bona fide, Nissan will so notify Dealer. Dealer
               shall have ten (10) days from its receipt of such notice within
               which to withdraw its proposal. Nissan's exercise of its rights
               hereunder shall be null and void if Dealer withdraws its proposal
               within such time period.

          v.   Dealer shall transfer the affected property free and clear of
               liens, claims, mortgages, encumbrances, tenancies and
               occupancies. Dealer shall also furnish to Nissan copies of any
               easements, licenses, or other documents affecting the dealership
               and/or property and shall assign any permits or licenses which
               are necessary for the conduct of the Dealership Operations.

     B.   REAL PROPERTY
          -------------

          Whenever Dealer proposes to sell or lease any of its Dealership
          Facilities and/or Dealership Locations, in addition to its rights
          under Article Third and Fourth of  the Dealer Agreement and Section
          15.B of the Standard Provisions, Nissan shall have the right and
          option to purchase or lease said Dealership Facilities and/or
          Dealership Locations pursuant to this Paragraph l0.B.

          i)   If Nissan chooses to exercise its right of first refusal, it must
               do so by written notice delivered to Dealer within sixty (60)
               days of Nissan's receipt of notice of the proposed sale or lease
               by Dealer. Dealer agrees not to complete any proposed sale or
               lease prior to the expiration of the period for exercise of
               Nissan's right of first refusal and without Nissan's prior
               written consent, and agrees to allow Nissan to perform an
               environmental study of the property. Dealer also agrees to
               furnish to Nissan copies of any easements, licenses,
               environmental studies or other documents affecting the property
               Such exercise shall be null and void if Dealer withdraws its sale

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
               or lease proposal within thirty (30) days following Dealer's
               receipt of Nissan's notice exercising its right of first refusal.

          ii)  After being exercised, Nissan's right to purchase or lease may be
               assigned to any party, and Nissan hereby agrees to guarantee the
               full payment of the purchase price or the rental payment by such
               assignee. Nissan's rights under this Paragraph l0.B shall be
               binding on and enforceable against any assignee or successor in
               interest of Dealer or purchaser of Dealer's assets. Nissan shall
               have no obligation to exercise its rights hereunder, and Seller
               may rescind its offer if the property is determined to be
               contaminated pursuant to an environmental study. Such
               contamination shall be deemed a breach of this agreement by
               dealer.

          iii) Dealer shall transfer the affected property by Warranty Deed
               conveying marketable title free and clear of liens, claims,
               mortgages, encumbrances, tenancies and occupancies, or, if
               applicable, by an assignment of any existing lease. The Warranty
               Deed shall be in proper form for recording. Dealer shall deliver
               complete possession of the property at the time of delivery of
               the Deed or lease assignment. Dealer shall also assign any permit
               or licenses which are necessary for the conduct of the Dealership
               Operations.

          iv)  In addition to any other rights Nissan may have at law, in equity
               or hereunder, any sale or lease of the Dealership Facilities
               and/or the Dealership Locations in violation of this right of
               first refusal shall be voidable by Nissan.

     C.   OPTION TO PURCHASE
          ------------------

          If the CMO Agreement or the Dealer Agreement is to expire or be
          terminated for any reason, including but not limited to the death or
          physical or mental incapacity, without replacement in accordance with
          Section 9.C. hereinabove, of Dealer Principal, Nissan has the option
          to purchase the principal assets of Dealer utilized in the dealership
          business, including such real property as Nissan in its sole
          discretion may elect to purchase, and cancel the CMO Agreement and the
          Dealer Agreement and all rights granted Dealer thereunder. The
          purchase price of the dealership assets and real property and other
          terms will be determined by agreement between the parties or, if the
          parties are unable to reach agreement in a reasonable time, by
          arbitration pursuant to the Dispute Resolution Process established in
          Paragraph 12 hereof. Nissan must advise Dealer of its intent to
          exercise this option within 30 days prior to the expiration of the CMO
          Agreement and/or the Dealer Agreement or within 30 days after one
          party notifies the other of its intent to terminate the CMO Agreement
          and/or the Dealer Agreement. Nissan may assign its right to exercise
          its option to purchase under this Paragraph 10.C to any third party.

11.  TERMINATION
     -----------

     A.   TERMINATION DUE TO ACTS OR EVENTS
          ---------------------------------

          The following represent events which are within the control of or
          originate from actions taken by Dealer or its management or owners and
          which are so contrary to the intent and purpose of the CMO Agreement
          that they warrant its termination and the termination of the Dealer
          Agreement:

          (i)   Any conduct that warrants the termination of the Dealer
                Agreement;

          (ii)  The termination of the Dealer Agreement;

          (iii) The failure of Dealer to maintain at all times exclusive Nissan
                sales, service, parts and/or other operations at the Dealership
                Facilities and the Dealership Locations; or

          (iv)  Any actual or attempted sale or transfer of stock or any other
                ownership interest in Dealer by way of a public offering without
                Nissan's prior written consent;

          Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, Nissan may
          terminate the CMO Agreement by giving Dealer notice thereof, such
          termination to be effective upon the date specified in such notice, or
          such later date as may be required by any applicable statute.

     B.   TERMINATION FOR NON-PERFORMANCE

          If, based on the evaluation thereof made by Nissan, Dealer shall fail
          to substantially fulfill its responsibilities with respect to:

          (i)   the development of the South Bay CMO according to the Market
                Area Plan;

          (ii)  the implementation of the plans set forth in the Business Plan,
                including but not limited to any deviation therefrom; or

          (iii) the performance of its sales, service, customer relations or
                other obligations based on the standards established therefor in
                the Business Plan;

          Nissan will notify Dealer of such failure and will review with Dealer
          the nature and extent of such failure and the reasons which, in
          Nissan's or Dealer's opinion, account for such failure. Thereafter,
          Nissan will provide Dealer with a reasonable opportunity to correct
          the failure. If Dealer fails to make substantial progress towards
          remedying such failure before the expiration of such period, Nissan,
          may, direct Dealer to transfer its rights and obligations under this
          Agreement to another

                                      11
<PAGE>
 
          entity, acceptable to Nissan, within a reasonable time. Should Dealer
          fail to do so Nissan may (a) terminate this Agreement by giving Dealer
          notice of termination, such termination to be effective at least sixty
          (60) days after such notice is given, (b) exercise its option to
          purchase the principal assets of Dealer utilized in the business,
          including such real property as Nissan in its sole discretion may
          elect to purchase, and cancel the CMO Agreement and the Dealer
          Agreement pursuant to Paragraph 10.C hereof, or (c) restructure the
          South Bay CMO and reassign to other Authorized Nissan Dealers any
          areas necessary to achieve the maximum potential development of the
          South Bay CMO.

12.  DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS
     --------------------------

     A.   EXCLUSIVE REMEDY
          ---------------- 

          The parties acknowledge that, at the state and federal levels, various
          courts and agencies would, in the absence of this Paragraph 12, be
          available to them to resolve claims or controversies which might arise
          between them. The parties agree that it is inconsistent with their
          relationship for either to use courts or governmental agencies to
          resolve such claims or controversies.

          THEREFORE, CONSISTENT WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE UNITED STATES
          ARBITRATION ACT (9 U.S.C. (S)(S) 1 et seq.), NISSAN AND DEALER AGREE
          THAT THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS OUTLINED IN THIS PARAGRAPH 12,
          WHICH INCLUDES BINDING ARBITRATION, SHALL BE THE EXCLUSIVE MECHANISM
          FOR RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR
          RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN
          THE PARTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO CLAIMS UNDER ANY STATE OR
          FEDERAL STATUTES (hereinafter "Disputes").

          There are two steps in the Dispute Resolution Process: a) Mediation,
          and b) Binding Arbitration. All Disputes must first be submitted to
          Mediation, unless that step is waived by written agreement of the
          parties. If Mediation does not resolve the Dispute to their mutual
          satisfaction, the Dealer or Nissan can submit the Dispute to Binding
          Arbitration.

          Section 16 of the Standard Provisions is deleted in its entirety.

     B.   MEDIATION
          ---------

          Dealer or Nissan can submit a Dispute to Mediation. Mediation is
          conducted by a panel consisting of a Nissan representative designated
          by Nissan, a Dealer representative designated by Dealer, and an
          independent professional mediator chosen by the parties'
          representatives. The Mediation Panel will evaluate each position and
          recommend a solution. This recommended solution is not binding.

                                      12
<PAGE>
 
     C.   BINDING ARBITRATION
          -------------------
 
          If a dispute has not been resolved after mediation, or if
          Dealer and Nissan have agreed in writing to waive Mediation,
          the Dispute will be settled by Binding Arbitration.
          SPECIFICALLY, THE PARTIES AGREE TO RESOLVE ALL SUCH DISPUTES
          BY BINDING ARBITRATION CONDUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
          COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION PROCEDURES OF THE AMERICAN
          ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION, WITH THE PREVAILING PARTY TO RECOVER
          ITS COSTS AND ATTORNEY'S FEES FROM THE OTHER PARTY. ALL
          ARBITRATION AWARDS ARE BINDING AND NON-APPEALABLE, EXCEPT AS
          OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THE UNITED STATES ARBITRATION ACT.
          JUDGMENT UPON ANY SUCH AWARD MAY BE ENTERED AND ENFORCED IN
          ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION.

13.  RELEASE
     -------

     Dealer hereby releases Nissan from any and all claims and causes of action
     that it may have against Nissan for money damages or other relief relating
     to or arising out of any event occurring prior to the execution of the CMO
     Agreement, except for any accounts payable by Nissan to Dealer in
     connection with the provision of any services under the Dealer Agreement
     and any claim described in Section 11.A.1 and .2 of the Standard
     Provisions. In connection with this release, Dealer expressly acknowledges
     and waives its rights under California Civil Code, Section 1542, which
     provides:

          A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE
          CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN ITS FAVOR AT
          THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM
          MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE
          DEBTOR.
