13

to offer a financially responsible entity to provide a non-recourse guaranty and indemnity with
respect to the Loan, which non-recourse guaranty and indemnity is in form and substance similar to,
and no more onerous or burdensome than, the non-recourse guaranty and indemnity originally provided

price of the common stock of POP Trust on the American Stock Exchange for the trailing twenty (20)
Calendar Days occurring immediately preceding the Closing Date, provided, however, that such Common
Units shall be valued at a per unit price of not less than $6.25 per Common Unit and not more than

undivided 44.752% beneficial and economic interest in and to the Property (the “PH



14









 






Contributed Beneficial Interest”), pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions
of the POP LP Agreement. Concurrently therewith, on the Closing, Buyer will cause POP LP to
distribute to Seller the POP LP Units Consideration pursuant to Section 2.5 hereof. Immediately
thereafter, on the Closing, POP LP will convey, assign and transfer to Buyer, indirectly or
directly, the PH Contributed Beneficial Interest.




          (b) Purchase of Beneficial Interest. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, on the Closing, Seller will convey, assign and transfer to Buyer, and Buyer will

(100%) of Seller’s record ownership and legal title in and to the Property, and (iii) all other
right, title and interest of Seller in and to the Property.

the beneficial and economic interest in and to the Property will, pursuant to the provisions of
Section 2.6(a) and (b) hereof, be ultimately conveyed, assigned and transferred to Buyer on the
Closing, the Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that, for convenience purposes, legal title to
the Property shall be conveyed, assigned and transferred directly by Seller to Buyer, and in
connection with the foregoing, all of the Transaction Documents shall be entered into directly by
and between Seller and Buyer, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.




     Section 2.7 All Cash Closing. In the event that: (a) one or more of the conditions to
Closing set forth in Sections 8.1(m) through (p), inclusive, hereof are not satisfied; or (b) one
or more of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 8.2(c) and (d) hereof are not satisfied,
then, in such a case, Buyer shall nevertheless have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase
and acquire the Property upon the following terms and conditions:



               (i) The conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 8.1(m) through (p), inclusive, hereof
shall be deemed waived by Buyer.



               (ii) The conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 8.2(c) and (d) hereof shall be deemed
waived by Seller.



               (iii) Sections 2.5, 2.6, 5.2 and 6.1(i) shall be deemed “Intentionally Deleted” in their
entirety and shall have no further force and effect.



               (iv) The term “POP LP Subscription Package” shall be deemed deleted from the definition of the
term “Transaction Documents” in Article I of this Agreement.



               (v) The Cash Purchase Price shall be increased by an amount equal to the POP LP Units
Consideration and therefore, shall be an amount equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of the Net
Purchase Price.



     In the event Buyer desires to exercise its rights pursuant to this Section 2.7, then Buyer
shall deliver written notice to Seller of Buyer’s election on or before the Closing Date.



15









 





     Section 2.8 Allocation. Prior to the Closing, Buyer and Seller shall agree on an
allocation of the Purchase Price for the Property. All allocations pursuant to this Section 2.8
shall be made in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code, and Buyer and Seller agree to file their
respective tax returns and reports (federal, state, local and foreign) consistent therewith in all
respects. In the event that the Parties are unable to agree prior to the Closing upon such
allocation, then, at either Party’s election, the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the
Real Property shall be the fair market value attributed thereto by the respective taxing
authorities of San Diego County, and the remainder of the Purchase Price shall be allocated to the
Personal Property in an amount equal to the book value of the Personal Property and the balance to
the Intangible Property.



ARTICLE 3

this Agreement and fully executed counterpart originals of Escrow Holder’s general provisions,
which are attached hereto as Exhibit “H” (“General Provisions”). The date of such delivery shall
constitute the opening of Escrow and upon such delivery, this Agreement shall constitute joint
escrow instructions to Escrow Holder, which joint escrow instructions shall supersede all prior
escrow instructions related to the Escrow, if any. Additionally, Seller and Buyer hereby agree to
promptly execute and deliver to Escrow Holder any additional or supplementary escrow instructions
as may be necessary or convenient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
provided, however, that neither the General Provisions nor any such additional or supplemental
escrow instructions shall supersede this Agreement, and in all cases this Agreement shall control,
unless the General Provisions or such additional or supplemental escrow instructions expressly
provide otherwise.



ARTICLE 4

INVESTIGATION PERIOD; VOLUNTARY TERMINATION; TITLE




     Section 4.1 Investigation Period. During the time period commencing upon the
Effective Date of this Agreement, and terminating at 5:00 p.m. PST on the fifteenth

to conduct and complete an investigation of all matters pertaining to the Property and Buyer’s
purchase thereof including, without limitation, the matters described in this Section 4.1.



          (a) Seller’s Deliveries. Within five (5) Calendar Days following the Effective Date
of this Agreement, Seller, at Seller’s expense, shall cause to be delivered to Buyer, true, correct
and complete copies of all documents, agreements and other information relating to the Property in
Seller’s possession and/or control, including, without limitation, those items listed on Schedule
“1.0,” attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (collectively, the “Seller’s
Deliveries”). Seller will promptly deliver to Buyer supplements and/or updates of Seller’s
Deliveries to the extent such items are received by Seller prior to Closing. During the
Investigation Period, Buyer shall have the right to conduct and complete an investigation of all
matters pertaining to Seller’s Deliveries and all other matters pertaining to the Property and



16









 






Buyer’s acquisition thereof. In this regard, following reasonable notice to Seller, Buyer
shall have the right to contact the Tenants, governmental agencies and officials and other parties
and make reasonable inquiries concerning Seller’s Deliveries and any and all other matters
pertaining to the Property. Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate with Buyer in connection with
its investigation of Seller’s Deliveries and all other matters pertaining to the Property.




          (b) Preliminary Title Report/Survey; Environmental. Without limiting Seller’s
obligations pursuant to Section 4.1(a) above, Seller, at Seller’s expense, shall deliver to Buyer
the following in accordance with the terms contained herein below (collectively, the “Reports”):




               (i) Title: Within five (5) Calendar Days following the Effective Date, Seller shall
cause to be delivered to Buyer a current preliminary title report covering the Real Property,
together with copies of all documents referred to as exceptions therein (“Preliminary Title
Report”).



               (ii) Survey: Within ten (10) Calendar Days following the Effective Date; Seller shall
cause to be delivered to Buyer two (2) copies of a current ALTA/ACSM survey of the Real Property,
prepared by JP Engineering, and dated not earlier than six (6) months prior to the Effective Date
(the “Survey”). Although Seller is commissioning the Survey, the Survey shall be prepared in

subsequent revisions to the Survey. Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate with Buyer in connection
with the foregoing.



          (c) Review of Preliminary Title Report/Survey. Not later than 5:00 p.m. PST on the
date that is the later to occur of the following: (I) five (5) Business Days following Buyer’s
receipt of the last of the Preliminary Title Report and the Survey; or (II) five (5) Business Days
following the Effective Date, Buyer shall have the right to notify Seller in writing (“Disapproved
Title Exceptions Notice”) of Buyer’s disapproval of any matters set forth in the Preliminary Title
Report and the Survey (“Disapproved Title Exceptions”). In the event Buyer timely delivers to
Seller a Disapproved Title Exceptions Notice, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation,
to agree to cure one or more of the Disapproved Title Exceptions by giving Buyer written notice
(“Cure Notice”) of such election not later than 5:00 p.m. PST on the date that is five (5) Calendar
Days following Seller’s receipt of Buyer’s Disapproved Title Exceptions Notice. Following the
timely receipt of a Disapproved Title Exceptions Notice from Buyer, if Seller fails to timely
deliver a Cure Notice to Buyer, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure any of the
Disapproved Title Exceptions. A Disapproved Title Exception shall be deemed to have been cured if
Seller causes such item to be removed from the record title of the Real Property prior to the
Closing or otherwise cures such Disapproved Title Exception as reasonably determined by Buyer.




     In the event Seller timely elects (or is deemed to have timely elected) not to cure the
Disapproved Title Exceptions, then prior to the expiration of the Investigation Period, Buyer may
elect: (i) to terminate this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2
hereof; or (ii) to not terminate this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, in
which case those Disapproved Title Exceptions which are not cured and which are not Monetary



17









 







Obligations which Seller is obligated to cure on or before the Closing pursuant to Section
5.1(e) hereof, shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Title Exceptions.



     Following the timely receipt of a Disapproved Title Exceptions Notice from Buyer, if Seller
elects to cure one or more of the Disapproved Title Exceptions, then Seller shall have until the
Cure Deadline to either: (y) cure all of the applicable Disapproved Title Exceptions that Seller
has elected to cure and deliver written notice to Buyer of such cure; or (z) deliver written notice
to Buyer of Seller’s failure to cure one or more of the Disapproved Title Exceptions that Seller
has elected to cure. In the event Seller: (A) timely elects to cure one or more of the Disapproved
Title Exceptions; and (B) fails to timely cure one or more of the Disapproved Title Exceptions that
Seller has elected to cure on or before the Cure Deadline, provided such Disapproved Title
Exceptions are not the result of a breach by Seller of Section 5.1(e) or Section 5.1(f) hereof,
then Seller shall not be in default under this Agreement and, in such a case, within one (1)
Business Day following Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s notice of such failure to cure, Buyer may elect
to either: (1) continue this Agreement in effect without modification and purchase and acquire the
Property in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, subject to such Disapproved
Title Exceptions (which will be deemed to constitute “Permitted Title Exceptions”); provided,
however, in such a case, the Scheduled Closing Date shall automatically be extended to the Extended
Closing Date; or (2) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to the provisions of Section
8.5(a) hereof, unless one or more of such Disapproved Title Exceptions are the result of a breach
by Seller of Section 5.1(e) or Section 5.1(f) hereof, in which case the provisions of Section
8.6(a) hereof shall govern. Upon any termination of this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to
Section 4.1(c)(2) hereof, in addition to Buyer’s rights and remedies under Section 8.5(a) or 8.6(a)
hereof, as applicable, Buyer shall be entitled to recover from Seller all of Buyer’s actual
out-of-pocket legal fees, costs and expenses, together with all other due diligence fees, costs and
expenses, incurred in connection with this Agreement and its review of the Property.



     Notwithstanding any provision in the Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the term
“Permitted Title Exceptions” include any Monetary Obligations, and Seller hereby agrees to and
shall remove all Monetary Obligations on or before the Closing.



     Fee title to the Real Property shall be conveyed by Seller to Buyer subject only to the
following exceptions to title (collectively, the “Permitted Title Exceptions”):



               (i) The Loan.



               (ii) Non-delinquent real and personal property taxes and assessments.



               (iii) The lien of supplemental taxes, if any, assessed pursuant to Chapter 3.5, commencing
with Section 75, of the California Revenue and Taxation Code as a result of a change in ownership
or new construction occurring on or after the date of the policy.



               (iv) Any lien voluntarily imposed by Buyer.



               (v) Any matters set forth in the Preliminary Title Report and the Survey that are approved by
Buyer in accordance with the procedures and within the time periods set forth in Section 4.1(c)
hereof.



18









 





               (vi) All New Title Exceptions approved by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1(d) hereof.



          (d) New Title Exceptions. In the event that prior to the Closing, any new title
exceptions are discovered by or revealed to Seller, which new title exceptions were not otherwise
set forth or referred to in the Preliminary Title Report and/or in the Survey (“New Title
Exceptions”), Seller shall deliver written notice to Buyer disclosing the existence of such New
Title Exceptions, together with copies of all underlying documents. Each such New Title Exception
shall be deemed to constitute a Disapproved Title Exception except to the extent Buyer gives Seller
written notice of Buyer’s approval of one or more New Title Exceptions within five (5) Business
Days (but in no event later than the Closing Date) after the date of Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s
written notice of the existence of such New Title Exceptions (“New Title Exceptions Approval
Notice”). In the event Buyer timely delivers to Seller a New Title Exceptions Approval Notice,
those New Title Exceptions approved by Buyer pursuant to the New Title Exceptions Approval Notice
shall be deemed to constitute Permitted Title Exceptions and the remaining New Title Exceptions
shall continue to constitute Disapproved Title Exceptions. On or before the Cure Deadline, Seller
shall either: (i) cause all New Title Exceptions which are not approved by Buyer pursuant to a New
Title Exceptions Approval Notice (and which are therefore deemed to constitute Disapproved Title
Exceptions) to be cured and deliver written notice to Buyer of such cure; or (ii) deliver written
notice to Buyer of Seller’s failure to cure one or more of such Disapproved Title Exceptions. A
New Title Exception which is deemed to constitute a Disapproved Title Exception shall be deemed to
have been cured if Seller causes such item to be removed from record title to the Real Property
prior to the Closing or otherwise cures such New Title Exception as reasonably determined by Buyer.



     In the event Seller does not timely cure one or more of those New Title Exceptions which are
deemed to constitute Disapproved Title Exceptions, then Buyer may elect, at any time on or before
the Closing Date, to either: (A) continue this Agreement in effect without modification and
purchase and acquire the Property in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
subject to such New Title Exceptions (which will be deemed to constitute “Permitted Title
Exceptions”); provided, however, in such a case, the Closing Date shall automatically be extended
to the Extended Closing Date; or (B) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to the
provisions of Section 8.5(a) hereof, unless such New Title Exceptions are the result of a breach by
Seller of Section 5.1(e) or Section 5.1(f) hereof, in which case the provisions of Section 8.6(a)
hereof shall govern. Upon any termination of this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to Section
4.1(d)(B) hereof, in addition to Buyer’s rights and remedies under Section 8.5(a) or 8.6(a) hereof,
as applicable, Buyer shall be entitled to recover from Seller all of Buyer’s actual out-of-pocket
legal fees, costs and expenses, together with all other due diligence fees, costs and expenses,
incurred in connection with this Agreement and its review of the Property.



     Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the term
“Permitted Title Exceptions” include any Monetary Obligations, and Seller hereby agrees to and
shall remove all Monetary Obligations on or before the Closing.



          (e) Physical Inspection. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 4.1(e),
during the Investigation Period, Buyer shall have the right, at Buyer’s expense, to make



19

relating thereto, including, but not limited to, soils and geologic conditions, location of
property lines, utility availability and use restrictions, environmental conditions, the manner or

occupy the Real Property and all other matters relating to the Real Property. During the
Investigation Period, Buyer and its agents, contractors and subcontractors shall have the right to
enter upon the Real Property, at reasonable times during ordinary business hours, to make
inspections and tests as Buyer deems reasonably necessary and which may be accomplished without
causing any material damage to the Real Property. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer may, in
Buyer’s sole discretion, cause a phase I environmental audit to be prepared by Building Analytics,
which shall be prepared at Buyer’s expense according to the standards of Buyer (the “Phase I”).
Buyer may contact Fay Adamson, Assistant Project Manager, Buie Stoddard Properties, 11260 El Camino
Real, Suite #200, San Diego, California 92130, Telephone: (858) 794-2400, Extension 237, to
schedule all such on-site inspections, and Seller shall have the right to be present during such
inspections and tests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Buyer, its agents,
contractors or subcontractors conduct any invasive testing on the Real Property without Seller’s
prior approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer shall not materially
interfere with any Tenant, occupant or invitee of the Real Property in making such inspections or
tests, and shall return and restore the Property to substantially its original condition prior to
such inspections or tests. Buyer shall not permit any liens or encumbrances to be placed against
the Real Property in connection with Buyer’s investigation and inspection of the Real Property
and/or in connection with Buyer’s activities on the Real Property. Buyer hereby agrees to and
shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and Seller’s members, managers, partners,
officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, representatives, invitees, successors and
assigns, from and against any and all claims, demands, and causes of action for personal injury or
property damage, and all damages, judgments, liabilities, costs, fees and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting therefrom, arising out of any entry onto the Real Property by
Buyer, its agents, employees, contractors and/or subcontractors, pursuant to this Section 4.1(e)
hereof.




          (f) Investigation of Permits and Entitlements, Contracts, Leases, Intangible Property,
Personal Property and Other Property. During the Investigation Period, Buyer shall have the
right, at Buyer’s expense, to conduct and complete an investigation of all matters pertaining to
the Permits and Entitlements, Contracts, Leases, Intangible Property, Personal Property and all
other items of Property and Buyer’s acquisition thereof. In this regard, at all times prior to the
Closing, Buyer shall have the right to contact governmental officials and other parties and make
reasonable inquiries concerning the Permits and Entitlements, Contracts, Leases, Intangible
Property, Personal Property and all other items of Property, and Buyer shall have no liability
whatsoever arising from its investigation. Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate with Buyer in

provisions of Section 8.3 hereof, Seller shall operate and manage the Real Property substantially

present condition, subject to normal wear and tear, and Seller shall not diminish the quality
or quantity of maintenance and upkeep services heretofore provided to the Real Property.

8.3 hereof, Seller shall administer and timely perform all of its obligations under the Leases,
shall not commit any default under the Leases and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause any default by any Tenant under the Leases to be cured prior to the expiration of the
Investigation Period (but in no event later than the Closing Date). Furthermore, during the time
period commencing upon the Effective Date and terminating on the Closing or the earlier termination
of this Agreement, as applicable, Seller shall not renew, extend, amend or modify any of the Leases
without the prior written consent of Buyer in each instance, which consent shall be given or
withheld in Buyer’s sole discretion. Furthermore, during the time period commencing upon the
Effective Date and terminating on the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement, as
applicable, Seller shall not enter into any new Lease (each, a “Proposed New Lease”), without the
prior written consent of Buyer in each instance, which consent shall be given or withheld in
Buyer’s sole discretion. In the event Seller desires to enter into a Proposed New Lease, Seller
shall deliver to Buyer a copy of the Proposed New Lease for Buyer’s review in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 5.1(c). Buyer shall have a period of five (5) Business Days following
the receipt of such Proposed New Lease to review and approve or disapprove of the same. Prior to
the expiration of such five (5) Business Day period, Buyer shall deliver written notice to Seller
advising Seller of Buyer’s approval or disapproval of such Proposed New Lease. In the event Buyer
fails to timely deliver such written notice of approval or disapproval within such five (5)
Business Day period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have approved such Proposed New Lease. All
Proposed New Leases which are approved by Buyer pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.1(c),
and which are subsequently entered into and executed by Seller, shall be deemed to constitute a
“New Lease” for purposes of this Agreement. All references in this Agreement to the “Leases” shall
mean and include any New Leases entered into by Seller and approved (or deemed approved) by Buyer
pursuant to this Section 5.1(c).




          (d) Notices/Violations. During the time period commencing upon the Effective Date of
this Agreement and terminating on the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement, Seller
shall promptly deliver to Buyer any and all notices and/or other written communications delivered

deliver to Buyer prompt notice of: (A) the occurrence of any inspections of the Property by any
governmental authority; (B) any actual or alleged default by a party to any Contract; (C) any
actual or alleged default by any party to any Lease; (D) any notices of violations of laws,
ordinances, orders, directives, regulations or requirements issued by, filed by or served by any
governmental agency against or affecting Seller or any part or aspect of the Property.




          (e) Monetary Obligations. Seller shall pay and satisfy in full any and all Monetary
Obligations on or before the Closing Date.




23









 








          (f) New Liens, Liabilities or Encumbrances. Seller shall not cause, grant or permit
any new liens, liabilities, encumbrances or exception to title to the Property without the prior
written consent of Buyer in each instance, which consent may be granted or denied in the sole and
absolute discretion of Buyer.




          (g) Tenant Estoppel Certificates. On or before the Estoppel Delivery Deadline, Seller
shall deliver to Buyer a fully completed and executed estoppel certificate from each of the Tenants
(each, a “Tenant Estoppel Certificate”), each of which shall be dated effective no earlier than
thirty (30) Calendar Days prior to the Closing Date. Seller agrees that each Tenant Estoppel
Certificate shall contain the same terms and be in the same form and substance as the form of
certificate attached hereto as Exhibit “H” and incorporated herein by reference, and shall
otherwise be in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer. Each Tenant Estoppel Certificate shall
be duly executed by the applicable Tenant thereof and each guarantor of the applicable Lease, if
any. In the event Seller is able to obtain Tenant Estoppel Certificates from those Tenants
representing the Minimum Tenant Square Footage Requirement on or before the Estoppel Delivery
Deadline, but Seller is not able to obtain Tenant Estoppel Certificates from all of the Tenants,
then Seller shall deliver to Buyer, prior to the Estoppel Delivery Deadline, a landlord estoppel
certificate in the form of Exhibit “I,” attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (each,
a “Landlord Estoppel Certificate”), with respect to each Lease for which a Tenant Estoppel
Certificate has not been obtained in lieu of the Tenant Estoppel Certificate for such Lease. If
Seller has not timely delivered a Tenant Estoppel Certificate from those Tenants representing the
Minimum Tenant Square Footage Requirement, or alternatively, if Seller has timely delivered a
Tenant Estoppel Certificate from those representing the Minimum Tenant Square Footage Requirement,
but has not provided a Tenant Estoppel Certificate nor provided a Landlord Estoppel Certificate to
Buyer with respect to any remaining Leases before the Estoppel Delivery Deadline, then, in such a
case, Buyer may exercise one of the following options on or before the Closing Date: (1) waive the
requirement to receive the Estoppel Certificates which Seller failed to deliver, continue this
Agreement in effect without modification and purchase and acquire the Property in accordance with
the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided the Scheduled Closing Date shall automatically
be extended to the Extended Closing Date; or (2) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant
to the provisions of Section 8.5(a) hereof. Upon Buyer’s receipt of the Estoppel Certificates, the
provisions set forth in Sections 5.1(g)(i) and (ii) shall apply.




               (i) Approval or Disapproval of Estoppel Certificates. Buyer shall have the right to
approve or disapprove of the Estoppel Certificates. If Buyer disapproves of any Estoppel
Certificate, then Buyer may deliver to Seller written notice of Buyer’s disapproval (“Estoppel
Objection Notice”) within five (5) Business Days following Buyer’s receipt of the last of all the
Estoppel Certificates. The Estoppel Objection Notice shall describe in reasonable detail each item
of dissatisfaction or objection in particular (each, an “Estoppel Objection Matter” and
collectively, the “Estoppel Objection Matters”). If Seller receives an Estoppel Objection Notice
within such five (5) Business Day period, then Seller may, but shall not be obligated to, agree to
cure some or all of the Estoppel Objection Matters described in such Estoppel Objection Notice by
delivering written notice (“Estoppel Cure Notice”) to Buyer of Seller’s election to cure some or
all of the Estoppel Obligation Matters within two (2) Business Days following Seller’s receipt of
Buyer’s Estoppel Objection Notice. If Seller fails to deliver Seller’s Estoppel Cure Notice to
Buyer within such time period, Seller shall be deemed to have



24









 







elected to cure all such Estoppel Objection Matters. If Seller timely elects (or is deemed to
have timely elected) to cure one or more of the Estoppel Objection Matters, then Seller shall have
until the Cure Deadline to cure such Estoppel Objection Matters that Seller has elected (or is
deemed to have elected) to cure, and shall pay all costs associated with such cure.



               (ii) Estoppel Remedies. If Seller either: (a) fails to cure an Estoppel Objection
Matter that Seller has elected (or is deemed to have elected), to cure by the Cure Deadline; or (b)
elects not to cure one or more of the Estoppel Objection Matters, then, in such a case, Buyer may
exercise one of the following options on or before the Closing Date: (1) continue this Agreement in
effect without modification and purchase and acquire the Property in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, subject to such Estoppel Objection Matters; provided, however, in
such a case, the Scheduled Closing Date shall automatically be extended to the Extended Closing
Date; or (2) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.5(a)
hereof.



               (iii) Termination Provisions. In addition to Buyer’s rights and remedies under
Section 8.5(a) hereof, upon any election by Buyer to terminate this Agreement and the Escrow
pursuant to this Section 5.1(g), Buyer shall be entitled to recover from Seller all of Buyer’s
actual out-of-pocket legal fees, costs and expenses, together with all other due diligence fees,
costs and expenses, incurred in connection with this Agreement and its review of the Property.



          (h) Termination of Negotiations. Seller shall discontinue all marketing efforts with
respect to the sale of the Property and shall terminate all negotiations with any other Person
other than Buyer for the sale or disposition of the Property.




          (i) Loan. Seller shall timely make all payments and shall timely perform all of its
obligations under the Loan.



     Section 5.2 Seller’s Post-Closing Obligations. Seller hereby covenants and agrees as
follows:



          (a) REIT Formation. Its is acknowledged and agreed that, as more particularly
described in that certain Proxy Statement of Arizona Land Income Corporation (“AZL”), as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on or around December 12, 2007, certain Affiliates of the
Buyer are actively pursuing those certain transactions described in such Proxy Statement, including
but not limited to a transaction pursuant to which it is contemplated that (among other things):
(i) AZL will reincorporate as a Maryland corporation which is treated for tax purposes as a “real
estate investment trust” (as defined in the Code) (such reincorporated entity being referred to as
“POP Trust”), (ii) POP Trust will change its name to “Pacific Office Properties Trust, Inc.,” and
(iii) such Affiliates of the Buyer will, directly or indirectly, contribute various assets and/or
cash to a newly formed limited partnership (the “POP LP”) whose general partner will be POP Trust
(collectively, the “Reverse Merger”). It is further acknowledged and agreed that, as a result of
the Reverse Merger, POP Trust, POP LP, and/or their respective affiliates (collectively, the
“Public Reporting Entities”) may be subject to various public reporting obligations including, but
not limited to, those imposed pursuant to the



25









 







          Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or, in
each case, any regulations or administrative pronouncements promulgated thereunder.




          Nothing in this Section 5.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a
covenant, representation or warranty, express or implied, that POP Trust and/or POP LP will be
formed and/or that the Reverse Merger will be consummated.




          (b) SEC Requirements. Upon Buyer’s written request, for a period of two (2) years
following the Closing, Seller shall make Seller’s Books and Records available to Buyer for
inspection, copying and audit by Buyer’s designated accountants, at Buyer’s expense, to enable or
assist any of the Public Reporting Entities, or their successors and assigns, to make any necessary
or appropriate filings (as specified on Exhibit “K,” attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference), if, as and when such filing may be required by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”) or otherwise by applicable law. Furthermore, and without limiting the foregoing, for a
period of two (2) years following the Closing, Seller, or, in the event Seller is dissolved, an
Affiliate of Seller acceptable to Buyer in Buyer’s sole but reasonable discretion, shall execute
the form of audit letter contained in Exhibit “L,” attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference, as the same may be modified from time to time, as and when requested by Buyer.




          (c) Seller Entity Requirements. For a minimum of thirteen (13) months following the
Closing, Seller shall not dissolve or liquidate and shall remain an active entity in good standing

     Seller may waive any of the conditions precedent set forth in this Section 8.2 by delivery of

case, the Scheduled Closing Date shall automatically be extended to the Extended Closing Date.




          (b) Non-Material Loss. In the event that, prior to the Closing, the Real Property
shall suffer a Non-Material Loss, Seller shall immediately notify Buyer of such Non-Material Loss

conditions of this Section 8.3(b). In such a case, Seller shall pay and assign to Buyer on the
Closing any and all casualty insurance proceeds previously paid or payable to Seller, and Buyer

against the Purchase Price in an amount equivalent to the monetary value of such Non-Material Loss.




     Section 8.4 Closing. In the event all of the conditions set forth in this Agreement
are timely satisfied (or waived in writing by Buyer or Seller, as applicable), the closing of the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement (“Closing”) shall take place on April 15, 2008
(“Scheduled Closing Date”), at the offices of Escrow Holder, or on such other date and/or at such
other location as may be mutually agreed upon in writing by Seller and Buyer. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event the closing condition set forth in Section 8.1(h) is not satisfied as of
April 11, 2008, then Buyer shall have the right, exercisable in the sole and absolute discretion of
Buyer, to extend the Scheduled Closing Date from April 15, 2008 to April 30, 2008, by delivering
written notice to Seller on or before April 14, 2008. In the event Buyer timely delivers such
written notice to Seller, the Scheduled Closing Date shall automatically be



32









 







extended from April 15, 2008, to April 30, 2008, and all references herein to the “Scheduled
Closing Date” shall mean April 30, 2008.



     Section 8.5 Failure of Conditions to Closing; No Default by Seller or Buyer.



          (a) Failure of Buyer’s Closing Conditions. In the event one or more of Buyer’s
conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 8.1 hereof are not satisfied or otherwise waived by
Buyer on or before the Closing Date, and the failure of such conditions to be satisfied is not a
result of a default by Seller or Buyer in the performance of their respective obligations under
this Agreement, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and the Escrow by
giving written notice of such termination to Seller. Upon any election by Buyer to terminate this
Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to this Section 8.5(a), the provisions of Section 8.5(c) hereof
shall govern.




          (b) Failure of Seller’s Closing Conditions. In the event one or more of Seller’s
conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 8.2 hereof are not satisfied or otherwise waived by
Seller on or before the Closing Date, and the failure of such conditions to be satisfied is not a
result of a default by Seller or Buyer in the performance of their respective obligations under
this Agreement, then Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and the Escrow by
giving written notice of termination to Buyer. Upon any election by Seller to terminate this
Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to this Section 8.5(b), the provisions of Section 8.5(c) shall
govern.




          (c) Termination Provisions. In the event either Party elects to terminate this
Agreement and the Escrow for the reasons and in accordance with the provisions set forth in this
Section 8.5, then: (i) this Agreement shall automatically terminate (other than those provisions
which expressly provide that they survive any termination of this Agreement); (ii) Escrow Holder
shall immediately cause the Deposit to be paid to Buyer without the need of any further written
authorization or consent from Seller; and (iii) Seller and Buyer shall execute such escrow
cancellation instructions as may be necessary to effectuate the cancellation of the Escrow as may
be required by Escrow Holder. Any Escrow cancellation, title cancellation and other cancellation
charges shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer.




     Section 8.6 Failure of Conditions to Closing; Default by Seller or Buyer. In the
event either Party defaults in the performance of any of their respective obligations to be
performed prior to the Closing, then the non-breaching Party may elect the applicable remedies set
forth in this Section 8.6, which remedies shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of the
non-breaching Party with respect to a default by the other Party under this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a valid termination of this Agreement by Buyer pursuant to Sections
4.2 or 8.5(a) hereof or a valid termination of this Agreement by Seller pursuant to Section 8.5(b)
hereof, shall not be deemed a termination due to the default of either Party and therefore, shall
not be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.6.



          (a) Remedies of Buyer. In the event Buyer is the non-breaching party, as its sole and
exclusive remedy, Buyer may elect to: (i) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow by giving Seller
written notice describing Seller’s default and setting forth Buyer’s election to immediately
terminate this Agreement and the Escrow; or (ii) pursue the equitable remedy of



33









 






specific performance of this Agreement. Furthermore, and without limiting the foregoing, in
no event shall Buyer have the right to bring or maintain a cause of action against Seller for
monetary damages as a result of Seller’s breach pursuant to this Section 8.6(a), other than: (A)
causes of action specifically authorized pursuant to the express terms and conditions of this
Agreement; and (B) common law causes of action for fraud, intentional misrepresentation,
intentional concealment and similar causes of action. In the event Buyer elects to terminate this
Agreement and the Escrow pursuant to this Section 8.6(a)(i) hereof, then Escrow Holder shall
immediately cause the Deposit to be paid to Buyer without the need of any further authorization or
consent from Seller pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.6(d) hereof.




          (b) Remedies of Seller. In the event Seller is the non-breaching party, as Seller’s
sole and exclusive remedy, Seller may elect to terminate this Agreement and the Escrow by giving
Buyer written notice describing Buyer’s default and setting forth Seller’s election to immediately
terminate this Agreement and Escrow. In the event Seller elects to terminate this Agreement and
the Escrow pursuant to this Section 8.6(b), the sole and exclusive remedy of Seller shall be to
receive the amount specified as liquidated damages pursuant to Section 8.6(c) hereof.




          (c) SELLER’S LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. IF BUYER FAILS TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE
PROPERTY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND, AS A RESULT THEREOF,
SELLER ELECTS TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ESCROW PURSUANT TO SECTION 8.6(b) HEREOF, SELLER
SHALL BE RELEASED FROM ITS OBLIGATION TO SELL THE PROPERTY TO BUYER. IN SUCH A CASE, SELLER AND
BUYER AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF SELLER’S DAMAGES AS
A RESULT OF ANY SUCH BREACH BY BUYER, AND, ACCORDINGLY, AS SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AT
LAW OR IN EQUITY, SELLER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE AND RETAIN THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
SELLER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE PAYMENT OF SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SHALL CONSTITUTE
SELLER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY ON ACCOUNT OF BUYER’S DEFAULT AND IN CONSIDERATION OF THE PAYMENT OF SUCH
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, SELLER SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE WAIVED ALL OTHER CLAIMS AT LAW OR IN EQUITY,
INCLUDING ANY CLAIM OF SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE, EXCEPT FOR: (A) CLAIMS FOR INDEMNITY PURSUANT TO
SECTION 4.1(e); (B) ACTIONS FOR THE RETURN OF DOCUMENTS PURSUANT TO SECTION 4.4; (C) ACTIONS TO
EXPUNGE A LIS PENDENS OR OTHERWISE CLEAR TITLE OF ANY LIEN FILED OR IMPOSED BY BUYER; AND (D)
REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS INCURRED BY SELLER INCIDENT TO CLAUSES (A) THROUGH (C).

          (d) Termination Provisions. In the event either Party elects to terminate this
Agreement and the Escrow for the reasons and in accordance with the provisions set forth in this

herein shall impose any personal liability on such individual for any representation, warranty or
covenant of Seller hereunder.

     Section 11.2 Prorations, Costs and Expenses.



          (a) Prorations and Adjustments. The following adjustments and prorations shall be
made as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date (“Proration Date”), as though Buyer held title to the
Property throughout the entire day in which the Closing occurs. Such adjustments and prorations
shall be made on the basis of: (i) a 365-day year with respect to Taxes as provided in Section
11.2(a)(iii) hereof; and/or (ii) the number of days in the calendar month in which the Closing Date
occurs with respect to Revenues and Operating Expenses as provided in Sections 11.2(a)(i) and (ii),
respectively, hereof, subject to the following provisions:




               (i) Revenues. All rentals, receipts and other revenues (including, but not limited
to, reimbursements for Property Expenses, common area maintenance, real and personal property
taxes, insurance and other operating expense reimbursements, if applicable, but excluding
percentage rent, if applicable) (collectively, the “Revenues”), billed to Tenants by Seller as of
the Closing, but which are properly allocable to the period after the Proration Date, shall be
credited to Buyer at the Closing. To the extent there are any Revenues owing to Seller as of the
Closing which relate to periods of time prior to the Proration Date, but which have not actually
been collected by Seller as of the Closing (“Delinquent Revenues”), Buyer shall not be obligated to
pay to Seller (or give Seller a credit for), the amount of such Delinquent Revenues on the Closing.
All Revenues which are received by Seller or Buyer subsequent to the Closing Date shall be
applied: first, to amounts due to Buyer; and second, to Delinquent Revenues due to Seller. Seller
and Buyer hereby agree to promptly remit to the other the amount of any Revenues received and owing
to each other pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.2(a)(i). Notwithstanding any provision
of this Section 11.2 to the contrary, Seller retains its rights to recover Delinquent Revenues,
including, without limitation, the right to collect (provided, however, Seller shall not have the
right to file and maintain a lawsuit or other legal proceeding against a delinquent Tenant or evict
a delinquent Tenant) the same from delinquent Tenants and/or third parties responsible for payment
of such Delinquent Revenues. Buyer, at no cost and expense to Buyer, shall use commercially
reasonable efforts (provided such commercially reasonable efforts shall not include an obligation
to file and maintain a lawsuit or other legal proceeding against a delinquent Tenant or other third
party or to evict a delinquent Tenant) to enforce the provisions of the Leases which require the
Tenants to pay to Seller such Delinquent Revenues.



               (ii) Operating Expenses. All costs, fees and expenses (other than management fees and
salaries) relating to the operation, management and repair of the Property, excluding Taxes,
Leasing Commissions and Tenant Inducement Costs (collectively, the “Operating Expenses”), shall be
prorated between Seller and Buyer at the Closing as of the Proration Date.



               (iii) Real and Personal Property Taxes. (A) All general and special real and personal
property taxes and assessments (collectively, the “Taxes”), based on the regular tax bill for the
current fiscal year (or, if such tax bill has not been issued as of the date of the Closing, the
regular tax bill for the fiscal year preceding the current fiscal year) shall be prorated



42









 







between Seller and Buyer at the Closing as of the Proration Date. Without limiting the
foregoing, any and all accrued and unpaid supplemental or special real property taxes or
assessments that relate to any time period prior to the Proration Date shall be the responsibility
of Seller and, if not paid prior to or at Closing, shall be credited to the Buyer at Closing, and
any and all supplemental or special real property taxes or assessments that relate to any time
period on or after the Proration Date shall be the responsibility of Buyer and if paid by Seller
prior to or at Closing, shall be credited to Seller at Closing. Without limiting the foregoing, in
the event any supplemental or special real property taxes or assessments are levied prior to
Closing, but are due and payable in one or more installments subsequent to the Closing, such
supplemental or special real property taxes or assessments shall be allocated on a pro rata basis
over the applicable payment period in question and prorated between Seller and Buyer as of the
Proration Date. Notwithstanding any of the terms and conditions to the contrary contained in this
Section 11.2(a)(iii), in the event any such Taxes are paid for directly by the Tenants to the
applicable taxing authorities, such Taxes shall not be prorated between Seller or Buyer.



               (iv) Percentage Rent. Any percentage rent payable under each Lease for the year in
which the Closing occurs shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of the Proration Date.
Seller and Buyer acknowledge that sufficient information to enable Seller and Buyer to prorate
percentage rent will not be available as of the Closing. Accordingly, the proration contemplated
in this Section 11.2(a)(iv) shall be conducted subsequent to the Closing pursuant to Section
11.2(d) hereof.



               (v) Interest and Other Amounts Owing Under the Loan. All interest and other amounts
owing under the Loan (excluding principal), shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer at the
Closing as of the Proration Date.



               (vi) Reserves. Seller shall receive a credit at Closing in an amount equal to the
amount of the reserves under the Loan assigned by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 2.4(f)
hereof.



          (b) Property Expense Pass-Throughs. To the extent the Leases require the Tenants to
reimburse Seller for Operating Expenses and/or Taxes (collectively, the “Property Expenses”), in
the event such Property Expenses are reconciled under the terms of the Leases at the end of the
calendar year in which the Closing takes place, to reflect the actual Property Expenses incurred
for the calendar year, such calendar year shall be deemed to constitute the “Reconciliation Period”
for purposes of this Agreement and the following provisions shall apply:




               (i) On or before the Closing, Seller shall be responsible for computing and comparing on a
Tenant-by-Tenant basis and delivering to Buyer a written statement setting forth: (A) the amount of
Property Expenses incurred and actually paid by Seller with respect to the Reconciliation Period;
and (B) the amount of Property Expenses actually received by Seller from the Tenants and/or third
parties under the Leases with respect to the Reconciliation Period (“Pre-Closing Property Expense
Reconciliation”).



               (ii) Within sixty (60) Calendar Days following the expiration of the Reconciliation Period,
Buyer shall compute the actual Property Expenses incurred and paid by Seller and Buyer and the
actual Property Expenses reimbursed (or not reimbursed) by the



43









 







Tenants and/or third parties (whether in the form of estimated payments or otherwise), to
Seller and/or Buyer with respect to the Reconciliation Period (“Property Expense Reconciliation”).
Following the completion of the Property Expense Reconciliation, Buyer shall submit the same to
Seller for Seller’s review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. In the event Seller fails to approve or disapprove of the Property Expense Reconciliation
within ten (10) Business Days following the receipt of the same, such Property Expense
Reconciliation shall be deemed approved by Seller. Following the approval (or deemed approval) by
Seller of the Property Expense Reconciliation, Buyer shall forward the Property Expense
Reconciliation to the applicable Tenants. Buyer hereby covenants to use reasonable efforts to
enforce the provisions of the Leases which require the Tenants and/or third parties to reimburse
the landlord for Property Expenses with respect to the Reconciliation Period. To the extent Seller
or Buyer receives any such Property Expense reimbursement payments with respect to the
Reconciliation Period, the same shall constitute Revenues and shall be paid to Seller or Buyer in
the manner contemplated in Section 11.2(a)(i) hereof.



               (iii) Following the completion of the Property Expense Reconciliation, if the Property
Expenses incurred and paid by Seller for that portion of the Reconciliation Period in question
preceding the Closing exceed the reimbursed Property Expenses actually received by Seller from the
Tenants and/or third parties under the Leases (whether in the form of estimated payments or
otherwise), with respect to the Reconciliation Period (“Property Expense Reimbursement Shortfall”),
Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to such Property Expense Reimbursement Shortfall, to the
extent that Buyer shall have collected and received such actual identifiable amounts from the
Tenants and/or third parties under the Leases, within ten (10) Business Days following Buyer’s
collection and receipt of the same. If the reimbursed Property Expenses received by Seller from
the Tenants and/or third parties under the Leases (whether in the form of estimated payments or
otherwise), with respect to the Reconciliation Period preceding the Closing exceed the Property
Expenses incurred and paid by Seller with respect to the Reconciliation Period (“Property Expense
Reimbursement Surplus”), then Seller shall pay an amount equal to such Property Expense
Reimbursement Surplus to Buyer within ten (10) Business Days after Seller’s receipt of the Property
Expense Reconciliation. Upon Seller’s payment to Buyer of any such Property Expense Reimbursement
Surplus, Buyer shall be obligated to reimburse or credit the Tenants for such Property Expense
Reimbursement Surplus as required under their respective Leases.



               (iv) Seller and Buyer hereby agree to reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with
any disputes or claims by Tenants concerning the calculation of Property Expenses during the
Reconciliation Period.



          (c) Security Deposits; Leasing Commissions and Tenant Inducement Costs. All unpaid
Leasing Commissions, unpaid Tenant Inducements Costs and Security Deposits under the Leases shall
be credited to Buyer at the Closing.




          (d) Final Accounting. Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that, on the Closing
Date, Seller and Buyer may not have sufficient information to conduct and complete a final
proration of all items subject to proration pursuant to this Section 11.2. Accordingly, Seller and
Buyer agree that, as soon as is reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer
shall make a final accounting of all items relating to the Property to be prorated between




44









 







Seller and Buyer pursuant to this Section 11.2. In conjunction with the performance of such
final accounting, following a request from Seller, Buyer shall provide Seller with copies of all
monthly and other statements sent to the Tenants itemizing amounts owing under the Leases by the
Tenants (together with copies of invoices, statements and other supporting documentation evidencing
such expenditures and tenant ledgers and related documentation evidencing how Revenues were
applied, all as reasonably requested by Seller). In the event it is determined, pursuant to such
final accounting, that any amounts are due and owing by Seller to Buyer, then Seller shall cause
such amounts to be paid to Buyer within ten (10) Calendar Days after such final accounting is
completed. In the event it is determined, pursuant to such final accounting, that any amounts are
due and owing by Buyer to Seller, then Buyer shall cause such amounts to be paid to Seller within
ten (10) Calendar Days after such final accounting is completed. All unpaid amounts shall accrue
interest at the lesser of: (i) twelve percent (12%) per annum; or (ii) the maximum rate of interest
allowable under applicable law, which interest, in either case, shall be deemed to accrue effective
as of the date such payment was originally due.

attorneys, affiliates, subsidiaries, successors and assigns of all levels (collectively, the
“Indemnitees”), from and against any and all claims, liabilities, causes of action, losses, costs,
damages, attorneys’ fees, judgments or expenses (“Losses”), arising out of, or relating to, the
following matters: (a) the breach by Seller of any of the representations and/or warranties made
by Seller in or under this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents; (b) the breach or default
in the performance by Seller of any of the covenants or obligations to be performed by Seller under
this Agreement or the Transaction Documents; (c) any claims, liabilities or obligations of Seller,
whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise, arising out of or relating to, Seller’s
previous ownership, management and/or operation of the Building; and (d) any claims, liabilities or
obligations of Seller, whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise, arising out of or
relating to the Loan prior to the Closing.



     Section 15.2 Notice and Opportunity to Defend.



          (a) Notice of Asserted Liability. In the event one or more Indemnitees receives
written notice or otherwise becomes aware of any claims, liabilities, causes of action or any other
circumstances that would give rise to a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 15.1 of this
Agreement (“Asserted Liability”), such Indemnitees shall give written notice thereof to Seller
(“Claims Notice”). Following the receipt of a Claims Notice, and without in any way limiting or
reducing the obligations of Seller pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof, the provisions of Section
15.2(b) or (c), as applicable, shall govern.




          (b) Opportunity to Satisfy. Without in any way limiting or reducing the obligations
of Seller pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof, in the event Seller receives a Claims Notice from the
Indemnitees for an Asserted Liability that is not a Third Party Claim, then, in such a case, Seller
shall have a period of ten (10) Calendar Days to endeavor to cure and satisfy, at its sole expense,
the matters which caused such Asserted Liability; provided, however, that in the event of an
emergency situation, Indemnitees may elect to cure and satisfy the matters which caused such
Asserted Liability and shall be entitled to reimbursement for all costs, fees and expenses incurred
in connection with the cure and satisfaction of such Asserted Liability pursuant to Section 15.2(d)
hereof. In the event the matters are of a type that cannot be cured and satisfied within such ten
(10) Calendar Day period, then Seller shall have such additional time as may be reasonably
necessary to cure and satisfy such matters so long as Seller is diligently pursuing the cure and
satisfaction and also so long as: (i) no Third Party Claim arises out of such Asserted Liability
(in which case the provisions of Section 15.2(c) below shall apply); (ii) the Indemnitees have not
incurred any unreimbursed Losses relating to such Asserted




47









 







Liability; and (iii) such matters are cured and satisfied within ninety (90) Calendar Days
from the date of the Claims Notice. All costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the
cure and satisfaction of any such Asserted Liability, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees and costs, shall be borne by and shall be the responsibility of Seller.
Furthermore, and without limiting the obligations of Seller pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof, Seller
shall reimburse Indemnitees for all Losses incurred by Indemnitees in connection with any such
Asserted Liability.




          (c) Opportunity to Defend. Without in any way limiting or reducing the obligations of
Seller pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof, in the event the Asserted Liability involves a Third Party
Claim, Seller shall defend and satisfy such Third Party Claim and all costs, fees and expenses,
including legal fees and costs, incurred in connection with the defense and satisfaction of such
Third Party Claim, shall be borne by and be sole responsibility of, Seller. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event Seller fails to undertake the defense of the Asserted Liability,
Indemnitees may elect to defend (by their own counsel), compromise and/or satisfy such Third Party
Claim by delivering written notice of such election to Seller. Without in any way limiting or
reducing the obligations of Seller pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof, if Indemnitees elect to defend
(by their own counsel), compromise and/or satisfy such Asserted Liability, Seller shall cooperate
in the defense, compromise and satisfaction of such Asserted Liability. All costs, fees and
expenses incurred in connection with the defense, compromise and satisfaction of any such Asserted
Liability, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, shall be borne by
and shall be the sole responsibility of Seller. Furthermore, and without limiting the obligations
of Seller pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof, Seller shall reimburse Indemnitees for all Losses
incurred by Indemnitees in connection with any such Third Party Claim.




          (d) Timing for Payment. In the event Indemnitees incur any Losses which were not
otherwise paid or satisfied by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, Indemnitees shall deliver written
notice to Seller advising Seller that Indemnitees have incurred such Losses (“Notice of Loss”).
The Notice of Loss shall include an itemization of all of the Losses which Seller is required to
pay pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Within thirty
(30) Calendar Days after the date of receipt by Seller of the Notice of Loss, Seller shall pay to
Indemnitees the aggregate amount of the Losses described in such Notice of Loss. In the event
Seller fails to timely pay to Indemnitees the aggregate amount of such Losses, any and all unpaid
amounts shall accrue interest at the lesser of: (a) eighteen percent (18%) per annum; or (b) the
maximum rate of interest allowable under applicable law, which interest, in either case, shall be
deemed to accrue effective as of the date such payment was originally due.




ARTICLE 16

“In determining the number of Units comprising the POP LP Units
Consideration, Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that in the
event the above-described calculation for the number of POP LP Units
comprising the POP LP Units Consideration does not result in a whole
number, and instead includes a fraction of a Unit, then, in such a
case: (a) the number of POP LP Units shall be rounded down to the
nearest whole number; and (b) the Cash Purchase Price shall be
automatically increased by an amount equal to the value of the
fractional Unit.”



          (c) All references in the Purchase Agreement to 44.752% shall be deemed to refer to the

the 12’ private storm drain and related facilities labeled as an

Amendment shall bear the meaning assigned thereto in the Purchase Agreement.

     2. REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT



          a. Filing of Shelf Registration Statement. Provided that such Holder has not elected,
by written notice to the Company delivered prior to such date, not to be named therein, and
provided the Holder has provided the Company with such information as the Company shall reasonably
request, the Company shall, not later than the Required Filing Date (as defined herein) specified
in the Supplement to which a Holder is a party, cause to be filed a Shelf Registration Statement or
a Prospectus Supplement providing for the resale by such Holder of the Holder’s Registrable
Securities in accordance with the terms hereof. If the Company is




3









 







eligible as a WKSI, the Shelf Registration Statement shall use the automatic shelf
registration process under Rule 415 and Rule 462 promulgated under the Securities Act. If the
Company is not eligible as a WKSI or is otherwise ineligible to utilize the automatic shelf
registration process, then the Company shall utilize Form S-3 (or any similar short-form
registration statement), if it is then available, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to
have the Shelf Registration Statement declared effective as expeditiously as possible. The Company
agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep a Shelf Registration Statement covering
the sale of each Holder’s Registrable Securities continuously effective under the Securities Act
until such time as the aggregate market value of all outstanding Registrable Securities (assuming
for this purpose that all Units then held by Holders were redeemed or exchanged for Shares) is less
than $5 million and, subject to Section 3.a(7), further agrees to supplement or amend each Shelf
Registration Statement, if and as required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to
the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the
Securities Act or by any other rules and regulations thereunder for Shelf Registrations.




          b. Alternate Registration Procedures. If the Company does not file a Shelf
Registration pursuant to Section a by the applicable Required Filing Date for any Holder Group
(such Holders, the “Affected Holders”, and the Registrable Securities, which were to be included in
such Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus Supplement, the “Affected Securities”), thereafter,
the Affected Holders holding (or who would hold, after redemption of Units) a majority of the
Affected Securities (and which shall have an aggregate market value of greater than $25 million)
shall have the right exercisable by written notice to the Company (“Demand Notice”), to cause the
Company to use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC a Registration
Statement and such other documents, including a Prospectus, as may be necessary in the judgment of
both counsel for the Company and the one special counsel selected by the Affected Holders
participating in the registration so as to permit a public offering and sale of their respective
Affected Securities. Company agrees to prepare and file with the SEC, within one hundred twenty
(120) days after it receives a Demand Notice from the Affected Holders, a Registration Statement on
any available form covering the sale by the Affected Holders of Affected Securities in accordance
with the terms hereof, and, if eligible as a WKSI, shall use the automatic shelf registration
process under Rule 415 and Rule 462 promulgated under the Securities Act, and if not eligible as a
WKSI or not otherwise eligible to use the automatic shelf registration process, will use its
commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by
the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable and use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such
Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act for a period of ninety
(90) days following its effective date (“Effective Period”); provided, however, that if the Company
is eligible to effect the registration on Form S-3, the Effective Period shall be one (1) year.
The Company may terminate any such Registration Statement (or, if applicable, be relieved of its
obligation to file any such Registration Statement) at such time as any new Shelf Registration
Statement shall be available for the purposes set forth in Section a.




          c. Registration of Redemption.





	 	(1)	 	In lieu of complying with Sections a and b hereof, the Company
may, in its sole discretion, elect to file a Registration Statement registering
the issuance of Common Shares to one or more Holders if permitted under the




4









 






	 	 	 	Securities Act. If the Company so elects, it will use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared
effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable after filing and to
keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities
Act until such time as the aggregate market value of all Shares for which
such registrations have been effected and which remain unissued is less than
$5 million and the Company shall supplement or amend each such Registration
Statement if and as required by the rules, regulations or instructions
applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such
Registration Statement or by the Securities Act or by any other rules and
regulations thereunder. If the Company makes an election under this
Section c, it shall be relieved of its obligations under Section 3, other
than those contained in Sections 3.a(1)(ii), 3.a(4), 3.a(5), 3.a(6), 3.a(7),
3.a(9), 3.a(10), 3.a(12) and 3.b, which continuing obligations shall be
deemed modified as appropriate to apply to the issuance of Shares to
Holders.






	 	(2)	 	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in order for
any Registrable Securities that are issuable upon the exercise of conversion
rights, redemption rights, options or warrants to be included in any
registration pursuant to Section 2 hereof (including any Units), the exercise
of such conversion rights, redemption rights, options or warrants must be
effected no later than immediately prior to the closing of any sales under the
Registration Statement pursuant to which such Registrable Securities are to be
sold such that the Holder is the record holder of the Shares that are the
subject to such conversion rights, redemption rights, option or warrants.





     3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.



          a. Company Obligations. In connection with the Company’s obligations under Section 2
hereof, the Company shall:





	 	(1)	 	for each Holder Group, prepare and file with the SEC, within
the time period referenced in Section 2 hereof, a Registration Statement or
Prospectus Supplement, as appropriate, which Registration Statement or
Prospectus Supplement and related Prospectus (i) shall be available for the
sale by such Holders of the Registrable Securities attributable to the New
Units or New Shares (as defined in the applicable Supplement) in accordance
with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof permitted under
applicable law and in accordance with the Partnership Agreement as communicated
to the Company by such Holders, and (ii) shall comply as to form in all
material respects with the requirements of the applicable form required by the
SEC to be filed therewith.
	 
	 	(2)	 	for each Holder Group, (i) promptly prepare and file with the
SEC such amendments, post-effective amendments and supplements to the




5









 






	 	 	 	applicable Registration Statement, and any Prospectus contained therein, as
may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with
respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement in accordance with the intended method or methods of
distribution thereof as communicated to the Company by such Holders,
(ii) respond promptly to any comments received from the SEC with respect to
the applicable Registration Statement, or any amendment, post-effective
amendment or supplement relating thereto, and (iii) otherwise comply with
the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement
during the applicable period in accordance with the intended method or
methods of distribution thereof as communicated to the Company by the
applicable Holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the Company shall not be required to take any of the actions
described in clauses (i) and (ii) above with respect to a Holder unless such
Holder shall have provided all information and documents reasonably
requested by the Company in connection with such actions.






	 	(3)	 	furnish to each Holder, without charge, as many copies of each
applicable Prospectus, including each preliminary Prospectus, and any amendment
or supplement thereto and such other documents as such Holder may reasonably
request, in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of such
Holder’s Registrable Securities; the Company consents to the use of such
Prospectus, including such preliminary Prospectus, by each such Holder in
connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by
such Prospectus or the preliminary Prospectus.
	 
	 	(4)	 	use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify
each Holder’s Registrable Securities not later than the First Sale Date
specified in the Supplement to which the Holder is a party, under all
applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as such
Holder shall reasonably request in writing, keep each such registration or
qualification effective during the period the applicable Registration Statement
is required to be kept effective or during the period offers or sales are being
made by such Holder, whichever is shorter, and do any and all other acts and
things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Holder to
consummate the disposition in each such jurisdiction of such Holder’s
Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required (i) to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction or to
register as a broker or dealer in such jurisdiction where it would not be
required so to qualify or register but for this Section 3.1(4), (ii) to subject
itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (iii) to submit to the general
service of process in any such jurisdiction.
	 
	 	(5)	 	notify each Holder when the applicable Registration Statement
has become effective and notify each Holder of Registrable Securities




6









 






	 	 	 	promptly and, if requested by such Holder, confirm such advice in writing
(i) when any post-effective amendments and supplements to the applicable
Registration Statement become effective, (ii) of the issuance by the SEC or
any state securities authority of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement or the initiation of
any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) if the Company receives any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the
Holder’s Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the
initiation of any proceeding for such purpose, and (iv) of the happening of
any event during the period the applicable Registration Statement is
effective as a result of which the applicable Prospectus contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.






	 	(6)	 	for each Holder Group, make every commercially reasonable
effort to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of
the applicable Registration Statement at the earliest possible moment.
	 
	 	(7)	 	cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Securities to
facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing
Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any Securities Act legend.
	 
	 	(8)	 	for each Holder, provided that such Holder has provided all
information and documents reasonably requested by the Company, upon the
occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3.1(5)(iv) hereof, use its
commercially reasonable efforts promptly to prepare and file a supplement or
prepare, file and obtain effectiveness of a post-effective amendment to the
applicable Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document
incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that,
as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities, such
Prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.
	 
	 	(9)	 	make available for inspection by the Holders of Registrable
Securities and any counsel or accountant retained by such Holders, all
financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of
the Company, and cause the respective officers, directors and employees of the
Company to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Holders,
counsel or accountant in connection with the applicable Registration Statement;
provided, however, that such records, documents or information shall not be
disclosed by the representatives, counsel or accountants or used for any
purpose other than in connection with this Agreement unless (i) the disclosure
of such records, documents or information is necessary to avoid or correct a
material misstatement or




7









 






	 	 	 	omission in such Registration Statement, (ii) the release of such records,
documents or information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order
from a court of competent jurisdiction, or (iii) such records, documents or
information have been generally made available to the public by the Company.






	 	(10)	 	use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Shares to
be listed on the principal securities exchange or automated quotation system on
which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed (provided that
the Company shall not be obligated to obtain any listing that it does not then
maintain).
	 
	 	(11)	 	otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply
with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and make available to its
security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement
covering at least 12 months which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a)
of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.
	 
	 	(12)	 	use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement to be registered
with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be
necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company to enable the
applicable Holders to consummate the disposition of such Registrable
Securities.
	 
	 	(13)	 	use commercially reasonable efforts to take all other
reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate the registration of the
Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.





          b. Limitation on Company’s Obligations. The Company’s obligations under this
Agreement shall be limited as provided in this Section b.





	 	(1)	 	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement or in any Supplement, in the event that (1) the Company’s costs of
compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and any Supplement do, or an
event occurs that, as soon as it takes effect, will cause the Company’s costs
of compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and any Supplement to,
increase substantially for reasons beyond the Company’s control and having
nothing to do with (w) the failure of the Company to meet the applicable
eligibility requirements under the Securities Act in effect as of the date of
this Agreement with respect to any Registration Statement required to be filed
pursuant to this Agreement, (x) the cost of legal services or other third-party
services necessary to enable the Company to satisfy its obligations under the
Agreement, (y) general economic conditions (including, without limitation,
inflation), or (z) the general financial condition of the Company, and (2) the
circumstance described in clause (1) above occurs




8









 






	 	 	 	or is ongoing at any time on or after the fifth anniversary of the date of
this Agreement, the Company shall be relieved of its obligations under
Sections 2 and a(1) through a(13) of the Agreement (and any provision of any
Supplement concerning any of such sections), subject to the remaining terms
of this Section b. If the Company reasonably and in good faith determines
that the preceding sentence is applicable, then the Company shall give
written notice thereof to the Holders that hold Units or Registrable
Securities at that time (the “Curtailment Notice”), which notice shall
explain, in reasonable detail, the circumstances that are causing, or that
will cause, the Company to experience a substantial increase in the cost of
compliance. If any of such Holders notify the Company in writing during the
60-day period following the date of the Curtailment Notice (the “Notice
Period”) that it wishes to sell its Registrable Securities pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, the Company shall honor such request, even if it
requires an undertaking by the Company beyond the expiration of the Notice
Period, unless any cost to the Company that is not contemplated by the
Agreement (i.e., any cost that is contemplated by clause (1) above) would be
incurred in doing so. If the Company’s delivery of the Curtailment Notice
is due to the occurrence of an event that, as soon as it takes effect, will
cause a substantial increase in the Company’s cost of compliance pursuant to
clause (1) above, then if the date of the Curtailment Notice is more than
90 days prior to such an event’s effective date, the Notice Period shall be
extended to a date 30 days prior to such an event’s effective date. Except
as set forth in the succeeding sentence, the Company shall have no
obligations under Sections 2 or a(1) through 3.a(13) of this Agreement
following the expiration of the Notice Period to any Holder that has not
notified the Company during the Notice Period of its desire to sell its
Registrable Securities. In addition, the Company hereby agrees to
reasonably cooperate with those Holders that continue to hold Units or
Registrable Securities following the expiration of the Notice Period so as
to enable those Holders to explore alternative methods by which to effect
the objectives of the Agreement for their benefit. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Section b, the Company shall have no right
to terminate any of its obligations under Sections 2 or a(1) through a(13)
of the Agreement pursuant to this Section b in the event that any or all of
the Holders, prior to the expiration of the Notice Period, enter into an
agreement with the Company, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, pursuant
to which such Holders shall be obligated to reimburse the Company for the
entirety of the increased costs of compliance referenced in
clause (1) above.






	 	(2)	 	The Company may require each Holder of Registrable Securities
to furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding the proposed
distribution by such Holder of such Registrable Securities as the Company may
from time to time reasonably request in writing.




9









 












	 	(3)	 	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement or in any Supplement, the Company shall have no obligation to enter
into any underwriting or other agreement or incur any expenses of counsel,
accountants or otherwise, in connection with any underwritten offering by any
Holder of its Registrable Securities.





     4. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.



     The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the filing of any
Registration Statement. Each Holder shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions,
brokerage or dealer fees, fees and disbursements of counsel, accountants or other representatives
of such Holder and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of such Holder’s
Registrable Securities, be it pursuant to any Registration Statement, Rule 144 under the Securities
Act or otherwise.



     5. RESTRICTIONS ON PUBLIC SALE BY HOLDERS OF REGISTRABLE SECURITIES.



     Each Holder agrees with the Company that:




	 	(1)	 	If the Company determines, after consultation with counsel,
that the filing of a Registration Statement under Section 2 hereof or the use
of any Prospectus would require the disclosure of important information, which
the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as nonpublic or the
disclosure of which would impede the Company’s ability to consummate a
significant transaction, upon written notice of such determination by the
Company, the rights of the Holders to offer, sell or distribute any Registrable
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or Prospectus or to require the
Company to take action with respect to the registration or sale of any
Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement (including any
action contemplated by Section 3 hereof) will be suspended until the date upon
which the Company notifies the Holders in writing that suspension of such
rights for the grounds set forth in this Section 5(1) is no longer necessary;
provided, however, that the Company may not suspend such rights for an
aggregate period of more than 90 days in any 12-month period.
	 
	 	(2)	 	In the case of the registration of any underwritten equity
offering proposed by the Company, each Holder agrees, if requested in writing
by the managing underwriter or underwriters administering such offering, to any
“lock up” or similar arrangement requested by such underwriter during the
period commencing on a date day prior to the expected effective date of the
Registration Statement covering such underwritten primary equity offering or,
if such offering shall be a “take-down” from an effective Shelf Registration
Statement, a date prior to the expected commencement date of such offering, and
ending on a date, in each case specified by such managing underwriter in such
written request to such Holder. Nothing in




10









 






	 	 	 	this Section 5(2) shall be read to limit the ability of any Holder to redeem
its Units for Shares in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.






	 	(3)	 	In the event that any Holder uses a Prospectus in connection
with the offering and sale of Registrable Securities covered by such
Prospectus, such Holder will use only the latest version of such Prospectus
provided to it by the Company.
	 
	 	(4)	 	In connection with and as a condition to the Company’s
obligations under Sections 2 and 3 hereof, (i) such Holder will not offer or
sell its Registrable Securities under the applicable Registration Statement
unless it has received copies of the applicable Prospectus or any supplemented
or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 3.a(1) hereof and receives notice
that any post-effective amendment has become effective, (ii) upon receipt of
any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described
in Section 3.a(5)(iv) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue
disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration
Statement until such Holder receives copies of the supplemented or amended
Prospectus contemplated by Section 3.a(8) hereof and receives notice that any
post-effective amendment has become effective, and, if so directed by the
Company, such Holder will deliver to the Company (at the expense of the
Company) all copies in its possession, other than permanent file copies then in
such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable
Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice and (iii) such Holder
will only sell its Registrable Securities in accordance with the provisions of
the Exchange Act and the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations
thereunder.





     6. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.



          a. Indemnification by the Company. The Company will indemnify each Holder of
Registrable Securities and each of its officers, directors, members, shareholders, employees,
affiliates, agents, managers and partners (collectively, “Representatives”), and each person
controlling such Holder and its Representatives, with respect to which such registration,
qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to Section 2, and each underwriter, if any,
and each person who controls any underwriter of the Registrable Securities held by or issuable to
such Holder from and against all claims, losses, expenses, damages and liabilities (or actions in
respect thereto), joint or several, actions or proceedings (whether commenced or threatened) in
respect thereof, and expenses (as incurred or suffered and including, but not limited to, any and
all expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any litigation or proceeding,
whether commenced or threatened, and the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of legal
counsel) in respect thereof (collectively “Damages”) arising out of or based on (1) any untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement
or Prospectus (including any preliminary, final or summary prospectus and any amendment or
supplement thereto), offering circular or other document (including any related registration
statement, notification or the like) incident to any such registration, qualification or
compliance, (2) any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material




11









 







fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
and (3) any violation by the Company of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act
or any state securities law applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required
of the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability, or action if such settlement
is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).
Further notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to
the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon (x) the
Company’s reliance on an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such Holder, any such underwriter
or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such Registration Statement or
Prospectus, (y) such Holder’s or underwriter’s failure to deliver a copy of the prospectus or any
amendments or supplements thereto after the Company has furnished such holder the number of copies
of the same reasonably requested by such holder or underwriter, or (z) any violation or alleged
violation by such Holder or such underwriter of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act,
any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the
Securities Exchange Act or any state securities law.




          b. Indemnification by each Holder. Each Holder will, severally and not jointly, if
Registrable Securities held by or issuable to such Holder are included in the securities as to
which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each
of its Representatives, each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a
Registration Statement, each person who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities
Act, and each other such Holder, each of its Representatives and each person controlling such
Holder, against damages arising out of or based on (1) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue
statement) of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement, Prospectus, offering
circular or other document, (2) any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (3)
any violation by such Holder of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act, any state
securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Securities
Exchange Act, or any state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such
Application, in each case of (1) and (2) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such
Registration Statement, Prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed by such
Holder specifically for use therein; provided, however, the total amount for which any Holder shall
be liable under this Section b shall not in any event exceed the aggregate net proceeds received by
such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities held by such Holder in such registration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability, or action if such settlement
is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).




          c. Notice of Claims. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section c (the
“Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the
“Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual




12









 







knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying
Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that
counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation,
shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and
the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense, and provided,
further, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein, shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, unless such failure resulted in actual
material detriment to the Indemnifying Party. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such
claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of
any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof
the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability
in respect to such claim or litigation or which contains any admission of wrongdoing by such
Indemnified Party.




          d. Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in any case
in which either: (i) any Person makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section d but
it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent
jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that
such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section d
provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be
required on the part of any such Person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided
under this Section 6; then, and in each such case, the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party
will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be
subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party are responsible for the portion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party, respectively, in connection with the statements,
omissions or violations which resulted in such Damages, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party on the one hand
and the Indemnifying Party on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any action taken, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or
the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such
party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or omission. If, however, the foregoing allocation is not
permitted by applicable law, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such Indemnified Party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such
relative faults but also the relative benefits of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party
as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The parties hereto agree that it would not
be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section d were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to in this Section d. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of
any claim referred to in this Section d shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set
forth in Section c, any legal or other fees, costs or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in
connection with any investigation or proceeding. Notwithstanding anything in this Section d to the
contrary, no Indemnifying Party (other than the Company) shall be required pursuant to this
Section d to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by such Indemnifying
Party from the sale of the Registrable Securities sold by such Indemnifying Party pursuant to the




13









 







Registration Statement giving rise to such claims, less all amounts previously paid by such
Indemnifying Party with respect to such claims. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.




     7. PARTICIPATION IN REGISTRATIONS.



          a. Cooperation. No Holder may participate in any registration hereunder unless such
Holder cooperates with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the
preparation of the Registration Statement, and for so long as the Company is obligated to file and
keep effective the Registration Statement, provides to the Company, in writing, for use in the
Registration Statement, all such information regarding such Holder and its plan of distribution of
the Registrable Securities as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Company to prepare the
Registration Statement and Prospectus covering the Registrable Securities, to maintain the currency
of and effectiveness thereof and otherwise to comply with all applicable requirements of law in
connection therewith.




          b. Immediate Discontinuance. Each Holder that is participating in any registration
hereunder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of
the kind described in Section 3.a(5)(ii)-(iv) above, such Person will immediately discontinue the
disposition of its Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement until such
Holder’s receipt of the copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus as contemplated by such
Section 3.1(h).




          c. Prompt Notice. Each Holder participating in any registration hereunder agrees to
notify the Company promptly, but in any event within forty-eight (48) hours, after the date on
which any Registrable Securities owned by such Holder have been sold by such Holder pursuant to
such registration, if such date is prior to the termination of the effectiveness of such
registration statement.




          d. Regulation M Restrictions. Each Holder agrees not to effect any public sale or
distribution of equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, unless such sale or distribution complies with
Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act.




          e. Prospectus Delivery. Each Holder participating in any registration hereunder shall
comply, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its representatives and agents
to comply, in all material respects with the applicable Prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act in connection with any sale pursuant to such registration.




     8. MISCELLANEOUS.



          a. Rule 144 Sales. The Company covenants that it will file the reports required to be
filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, so as to enable any Holder to
sell Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. In connection with any
sale by any Holder of any Registrable Securities pursuant to and in compliance with Rule 144 under
the Securities Act, the Company shall cooperate with such




14









 







Holder to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery after such sale of stock certificates
not bearing any Securities Act legend.




          b. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions
of this sentence may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to
departures from the provisions hereof may not be given without the written consent of the Company
and Holders constituting Majority Holders. Notice of any amendment, modification or supplement to
this Agreement adopted in accordance with this Section b shall be provided by Company to each
holder of Registrable Securities or Units redeemable for Registrable Securities at least
ten (10) days prior to the effective date of such amendment, modification or supplement.




          c. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder
shall be made in writing by hand delivery, first-class mail, telecopier or any courier guaranteeing
overnight delivery, (i) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to the
Company by means of a notice given in accordance with the provisions of this Section c, which
address initially is, with respect to each Holder, the address set forth in the Partnership
Agreement, or (ii) if to the Company, at 233 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 830, Santa Monica, California,
90401, Attention: Corporate Secretary.




     All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time
delivered, by hand, if personally delivered; three (3) business days after being deposited in the
mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; or at the time
delivered if delivered, by an air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery.



          d. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the successors, assigns and transferees of each of the Company and the Holders,
including without limitation and without the need for an express assignment, subsequent Holders.
If any successor, assignee or transferee of any Holder shall acquire Registrable Securities, in any
manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Registrable Securities shall be held subject
to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Registrable Securities such
Person shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof and shall be conclusively deemed to have
agreed to be bound by all of the terms and provisions hereof.




          e. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for the convenience of reference only
and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.




          f. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland without reference to principles of conflicts of
law. The parties: (x) agree that any suit, action or legal proceeding relating to this Agreement
shall be brought exclusively in the United States District Court of Maryland, if federal
jurisdiction is available, and, otherwise, in any state court located in such state; (y) consent to
the jurisdiction of each such court in any such suit, action or proceeding; and (z) waive any
objection which they may have to the laying of venue in any such suit, action or proceeding in
either such court. Further, the parties hereby consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of
the Maryland courts, both state and federal, and hereby waive any and all objections now or
hereafter existing to personal jurisdiction of said courts over them. The parties




15









 







waive, to the extent permitted under applicable law, any right they may have to assert the
doctrine of forum non conveniens or to object to venue to the extent any proceeding is brought in
accordance with this section.




          g. Specific Performance. The Company and the Holders acknowledge that there would be
no adequate remedy at law if any party fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder, and
accordingly agree that the Company and each Holder, in addition to any other remedy to which it may
be entitled at law or in equity, shall be entitled to compel specific performance of the
obligations of another under this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement in any court of the United States or any State thereof having jurisdiction.




          h. Binding Effect. This Agreement and each and every term, covenant and condition
thereof, including all restrictions herein contained upon the sale, transfer, assignment or other
disposition or encumbrance of stock, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
transferees, legatees, donees, heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives,
successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties.




          i. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall not
in any way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.




          j. Adjustments Affecting Registrable Securities. The Company agrees that it shall not
effect or permit to occur any combination or subdivision of shares which would adversely affect the
ability of the Holder of any Registrable Securities to include such Registrable Securities in any
registration contemplated by this Agreement or the marketability of such Registrable Securities in
any such registration.




          k. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company will not hereafter enter into any
agreement which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement.




          l. Further Assurances. Each party hereto shall do and perform or cause to be done and
performed all such further acts and things and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements,
certificates, instruments and documents as any other party hereto reasonably may request in order
to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.




          m. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.




          n. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of identical
counterparts, any of which may contain the signatures of less than all parties, and all of which
together shall constitute a single agreement.




          o. Fax Signatures. Any signature page hereto delivered by a fax machine or telecopy
machine shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page, with regard to any
