                             SALE OF REAL PROPERTY

<PAGE>   2
D.       Seller leases the Real Property and related improvements to Green
Valley Athletic Club Limited Partnership (the "Operator") pursuant to that
certain Ground Lease, dated November 13, 1986, between Seller and Operator (the
"Ground Lease").  Operator operates a health and fitness facility on the Real
Property (the "Club").

E.       Concurrently with the consummation of this transaction, and as a
condition thereto, Buyer intends to purchase certain assets (the "Club Assets")
from the Operator pursuant to a separate purchase agreement, dated concurrently
herewith, between Buyer and the Operator (the "Club Purchase Agreement").

F.       Any capitalized term not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall
have the meaning given it in Exhibit B, entitled "Certain Definitions".

                                 THE AGREEMENT

         1.      SALE OF THE PROPERTY.  Seller agrees to bargain, sell, grant,
convey and deliver, and Buyer agrees to purchase and accept the Property (the
"Acquisition") for the price and on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Buyer is not purchasing and accepting,
and Seller is not bargaining, selling, granting, conveying and delivering, the
obligations of Seller under and pursuant to any Contract Right (i) that by its
terms may not be assigned by Seller or (ii) that Seller may not assign, without
another party's consent, if such consent has not been obtained.  Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer is not assuming, and Seller
shall not be deemed to have transferred to Buyer, the obligations of Seller
under and pursuant to any Contract Rights to the extent that the same have not
been disclosed to Buyer by Seller in writing prior to the end of the Due
Diligence Period (as defined below).

         2.      CLOSING.

                 2.1      "Closing" shall mean the date on which a grant,
bargain and sale deed in the form of Exhibit C transferring title to the Real
Property from Seller to Buyer (the "Deed") is recorded, in conformity with the
laws of the State of Nevada.

                 2.2      Closing shall be deemed to occur, if at all, at 12:01
a.m. on Friday, August 1, 1997, unless the date for Closing shall be extended
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (August 1, 1997 or any such other date,
as applicable, the "Outside Closing Date"); it being further agreed that
Closing may actually occur, if at all, at a date and time different from the
Outside Closing Date.  If all conditions precedent set forth in Sections 8 and
9 have not been satisfied or waived and the Closing shall not have occurred on
or before the Outside Closing Date, then either Buyer or Seller may
unilaterally cancel this Agreement, at any time thereafter prior to such
satisfaction or waiver, by notice to the other, except that if the unsatisfied
condition(s) is for the benefit of the party not giving said notice, then such
party shall have the right, within three Business Days after its being served
with said notice, to waive such unsatisfied condition(s) and proceed to effect
Closing immediately.  Four Business Days after the effective date of said
notice, if Closing has not been agreed to by the party not giving said notice,
as provided above,
<PAGE>   3
then all funds deposited by Buyer, and all interest earned thereon, shall be
returned immediately to Buyer but subject to Section 3.4.

                 2.3      Consummation of the Transactions (the "Closing") will
take place at the offices of Jolley, Urga, Wirth & Woodbury, 300 South Fourth
Street, Eighth Floor, Las Vegas, Nevada.

                 2.4      If Closing has not occurred in accordance with the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, then this Agreement shall automatically
terminate without any further action required, and the parties shall have no
further liability hereunder.

                 2.5      When all conditions precedent to Closing set forth in
Sections 8 and 9 shall have been satisfied, or Deposit Holder shall have
received written instruction from the party or parties, or their respective
counsel, for whose benefit any such unsatisfied condition precedent exists
waiving the satisfaction of such conditions precedent, and when each of the
parties hereto shall have otherwise instructed Deposit Holder to proceed with
the Closing, then Deposit Holder shall take the following actions in the
following order:

                          (i)     Record the Restrictive Use Covenant.

                          (ii)    Record the Deed and Lease Assignment.

                          (iii)   Disburse the Purchase Price to Seller in
accordance with Seller's instructions.

                          (iv)    Deliver two fully executed original copies of
each of the Contract Assignment, Lease Assignment and Bill of Sale and a
conformed copy of each of the duly recorded Deed and Lease Assignment to
Seller.

                          (v)     Deliver two fully executed original copies of
each of the Contract Assignment, and Bill of Sale, one fully executed original
copy of the Lease Assignment and a conformed copy of each of the duly recorded
Deed and Lease Assignment to Buyer.

                          (vi)    Cause a policy of title insurance in
accordance with the requirements of Section 4.3 to be issued and delivered
promptly to Buyer.
<PAGE>   4
         3.      PURCHASE PRICE AND OTHER CONSIDERATION.

                 3.1      PURCHASE PRICE.

                          (i)     As consideration for the sale of Property, at
Closing Buyer shall (i) pay to the Seller a total of $1,325,000 (the "Purchase
Price"), and (ii) assume certain liabilities by executing and delivering to
Seller an Assignment of Contracts (the "Contract Assignment") in substantially
the form of Exhibit D and an Assignment of Leases (the "Lease Assignment") in
substantially the form of Exhibit E.  The Purchase Price shall be payable by
Buyer as follows:

                          (ii)    Buyer has deposited into an interest bearing
escrow (the "Escrow") established with Nevada Title Company ("Deposit Holder")
the sum of $46,150, in immediately available funds (such amount, together with
the interest earned thereon, being hereinafter referred to as the "Deposit").
The Deposit shall be credited against the Purchase Price.

                          (iii)   At Closing, such sum as may be necessary to
make Buyer's total cash deposit with Deposit Holder equal the Purchase Price,
after giving effect to any and all of Buyer's and Seller's credits and debits
pursuant hereto, including, without limitation, the Deposit.

                          (iv)    As additional consideration for the sale of
the Property, Buyer will issue, or cause to be issued, to Seller, at Closing,
$1,675,000 worth of shares of the authorized but unissued Common Stock, $.01
par value of The Sports Club Company, Inc. pursuant to the terms and conditions
set forth on Schedule 3.1(iv).

                 3.2      INVESTMENT OF DEPOSITS.  Buyer, and Seller agree that
all sums deposited by Buyer pursuant hereto shall be invested in treasury
bills, certificates of deposit, short term money market instruments or bank
repurchase contracts approved by Buyer and Seller, in such manner as to make
all such sums (and the interest earned thereon) available on the date for
Closing.  Buyer and Seller hereby instruct Deposit Holder to so invest such
sums and to return to Buyer, upon Closing, all sums in excess of those needed
to satisfy Buyer's obligations hereunder to Seller.  Interest earned thereon
shall be for the account of Buyer, and Buyer shall provide Deposit Holder with
Buyer's taxpayer identification number for use in opening the Escrow.

                 3.3      FORM OF FUNDS.  Any funds to be delivered hereunder
shall be immediately available federal funds wire transferred.  It shall be
Buyer's responsibility to obtain adequate wiring instructions for an escrow
account of Deposit Holder.

                 3.4      LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.  If Buyer has not previously
terminated this Agreement, by written notice to Seller and Deposit Holder
pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, then the Deposit Holder
shall deliver the Deposit to Seller, in accordance with such wire transfer
instructions as Seller shall give to Deposit Holder, immediately upon the
expiration of the Due Diligence Period.  Thereafter, if the Closing
<PAGE>   5
shall fail to occur solely because of the breach of Buyer under this Agreement,
then Seller shall be entitled to retain the Deposit, as liquidated damages and
not as a penalty and as Seller's sole remedy.  However, if Closing shall
thereafter fail to occur for any other reason or reasons, then Seller shall
return the Deposit promptly to Buyer upon Buyer's request therefor at any time
after the scheduled date for Closing, or on such sooner date as this
transaction is cancelled by Buyer and Seller.  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THEY HAVE
NEGOTIATED WITH REGARD TO THE DETERMINATION OF DAMAGES AND HAVE CONCLUDED THAT,
IF CLOSING FAILS TO OCCUR SOLELY BECAUSE OF THE BREACH OF BUYER UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT, THEN IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICABLE OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE
THE SELLER'S DAMAGES, THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE
OF THE DAMAGES IN SUCH EVENT, AND THAT THE SELLER, AS ITS SOLE REMEDY AND NOT
AS A PENALTY, SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RETAIN THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
THE PARTIES HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY ARE IN EQUAL BARGAINING POSITIONS, ARE
SOPHISTICATED IN BUSINESS MATTERS AND WERE REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL AT ALL TIMES
DURING THE NEGOTIATION OF THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION.

                 3.5      PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION.  On or prior to the
Closing Date, Buyer, and Seller shall agree on an allocation of the Purchase
Price and Seller liabilities (which liabilities shall be treated as an
additional amount paid by Buyer to Seller) among the Property (the "Allocation
Statement"). The allocation set forth in the Allocation Statement will conform
to the requirements of the Treasury Regulations under Section 1060 of the Code.
The parties agree to report (on Form 8594 and otherwise) the allocation of the
Purchase Price and Seller liabilities in a manner consistent with the
Allocation Statement. The allocation prescribed by the Allocation Statement
shall be conclusive and binding upon each party for all purposes. No party
shall file any tax return or other document with, or make any statement or
declaration to, any governmental body if such document, statement or
declaration is inconsistent with the allocation prescribed by the Allocation
Statement

         4.      TITLE.

                 4.1      [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].

Property and the fixtures and improvements thereon to Buyer, by the Deed,
subject only to items indicated in the Title Commitment and the Survey, shall
convey the Tangible Personalty by a Bill of Sale in substantially the form of
Exhibit F (the "Bill of Sale"), and shall convey the Contract Rights by (i) the
Contract Assignment, and (ii) the Lease Assignment.

                 4.3      EVIDENCE OF TITLE.  Seller shall, at Seller's expense

<PAGE>   6
improvements thereon as required under Section 4.2, in the form of an ALTA
policy of title insurance (or, at Buyer's sole election, a title binder) issued
in form identical to the Pro Forma Policy, including without limitation the
handwritten changes thereon, with liability in the amount shown on the Pro
Forma Policy; provided, however, that Buyer shall bear any incremental premium
expense between the premium for a CLTA policy and the premium for an ALTA
policy.  Additionally, Buyer shall have the option to obtain, at its own
expense, endorsements to said policy or binder to assure access, no violation
of conditions, covenants or restrictions, and such additional endorsements
(including, without limitation, for zoning classification) to said policy or
binder as Buyer determines to be reasonably necessary or appropriate.

         6.      PRORATIONS.

                 6.1      GENERAL.  Except as otherwise hereinafter provided,
at and as of Closing, Buyer and Seller shall prorate in cash real property
taxes and assessments on the basis of the current fiscal year, impound account
balances, governmental inspection and license fees, if any, rents, payments
relating to Town Center, utility and sewer charges, service contracts, service
contract bonus payments, unredeemed parking validations, and other similar
items.  Rents shall be prorated as if all rents indicated on the Rental
Statement, as updated, are current.  Buyer shall have no obligation to attempt
to collect any delinquent rent, if any, but shall pay over to Seller any rent
collected by Buyer after Closing relating to a period of time prior to Closing.
Rents received by Buyer shall be applied first to the current period and then
to past periods, in reverse chronological order.  Rents, if any, received by
Seller after Closing relating to periods of time after Closing shall be
promptly delivered to Buyer by Seller.  Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Seller shall cause all accounts payable that relate to the Property
and/or its operations pre-Closing to be paid as of the Closing Date.  Buyer
shall not, however, be required to pay, or otherwise to bear the cost of, its
share of any item to be prorated under both this Agreement and the Club
Purchase Agreement more than once, i.e., Buyer shall only be required to pay,
or otherwise to bear the cost, of its share of any such item under one of the
two agreements but not under both agreements.

                 6.2      ITEMS NOT TO BE PRORATED.  No proration shall be made
for premiums on any insurance policies carried by Seller applicable to the
Property (none of which are being assigned to or assumed by Buyer), for
management fees or for employee salaries, vacations, benefits, bonuses, payroll
taxes or other employee costs.  Seller shall terminate and pay for all such
services as of Closing.

                 6.3      REPRORATIONS.  If real estate taxes and/or
assessments, utility charges or any other item is prorated as of Closing on any
basis other than actual amounts charged for the current period, such item or
items shall be re-prorated upon determination of such actual amounts, and the
party owing funds to the other shall promptly remit such funds to the other.
If either party owing funds hereunder to the other does not remit them within
30 days after demand therefor, such funds shall thereafter bear interest at the
lesser of 10% per annum and the maximum lawful rate.  In all events, the amount
of any refund or credit shall be the amount the refund or credit would have
been without giving effect to the Transactions.  If Buyer elects to pursue
obtaining a property tax reassessment for the Property for the year of Closing
and/or any subsequent year, all benefits thereof shall belong solely to Buyer.
The parties shall further cooperate so as to calculate such net final proration
amount within 75 days of the Closing.  Any disagreement with respect to such
final calculation shall be resolved pursuant to binding arbitration before a
"Big 6" accounting firm to be designated by Buyer or any other accounting firm
that shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties.  Each party shall bear its
own cost and expenses in connection with such arbitration and one-half of the
fees and expenses of the arbitrator.  Each party shall be entitled to provide
the arbitrator with such information as each party shall deem appropriate with
respect to the matters to be determined by such arbitrator.
<PAGE>   10
                 6.4      COMPUTATION OF CERTAIN PRORATIONS.

                          (i)     Final proration of percentage rents and
similar apportionable items which are dependent for their calculation upon the
economic performance of the Property (or a portion thereof) over a specified
interval of time shall be accomplished as follows:  The parties shall await the
expiration of the specified interval to determine the gross rents, gross
receipts and other economic performance over the entire interval and then
prorate the item by allocating to Seller the product of the rents or other
similar apportionable item for the entire interval multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of days within the specified interval
which occur before Closing and the denominator of which is the number of days
in the entire specified interval.

                          (ii)    Operating expenses which are payable (or
reimbursable) by any present tenant of the Property or any portion thereof

credit for having already paid such expense).  Buyer shall send customary
statements for reimbursement of operating expenses and taxes to said tenants
after consulting with Seller with respect to appropriate amounts due therefor,
and shall remit to Seller, upon receipt, Seller's prorated share thereof,
determined as provided in subsection (i) above.

                          (ii)    Buyer's Transaction Costs.

         8.      CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO BUYER'S OBLIGATION.

                 8.1      Buyer's obligation to perform under this Agreement is
subject to and contingent upon the satisfaction of each and every one of the
following conditions.  Buyer's failure to disapprove any item or matter within
a specified time limit therefor shall be deemed to be approval.

                          (i)     TITLE MATTERS.

                                  (a)      [Intentionally omitted].

                                  (b)      The ability of the issuer of the Pro
Forma Policy to issue its policy of title insurance, upon recordation of the
Deed, insuring title to the Property being vested in Buyer as required in
Section 4.3.  Said issuer may not satisfy this condition by removing an
exception to title on the basis of an indemnification by Seller or any other
person unless Buyer has given its written consent thereto after full written
disclosure to Buyer of the nature and substance of such exception and
indemnification.

                          (ii)    DELIVERY ITEMS.  All Delivery Items shall
have been deposited into the Escrow.

                          (iii)   IDENTIFIED APPROVALS.  All government and
third party consents and approvals to the consummation of the Transactions
identified by Buyer to Seller in writing during the Due Diligence Period (the
"Identified Approvals") shall have been obtained; it being agreed that Buyer
shall work diligently, with Seller's assistance if and to the extent reasonably
required and at no out-of-pocket cost or liability to Seller, to obtain all
Identified Approvals. A liquor license for the Club shall not be an Identified
Approval.

                          (iv)    TRUTH OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.  All
of the representations and warranties of Seller contained herein shall be true
and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date as though
republished and remade on and as of that date; it being expressly understood
and agreed, however, that changes in representations and warranties which do
not have a material adverse effect upon the business of the Property shall in
no event be a basis giving rise to a right of Buyer to terminate this Agreement
pursuant to Section 8.3.

                          (v)     COMPLIANCE WITH COVENANTS.  Seller shall have
performed and complied with all of its obligations and covenants hereunder in
all material respects.

                          (vi)    CONCURRENT CLOSING.  The closing of the
purchase and sale under the Club Purchase Agreement shall have occurred
simultaneously with Closing hereunder.  Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, Buyer and Seller expressly agree that a
proper election by either Buyer or Seller to terminate this
<PAGE>   12
Agreement at any time in accordance with any of the terms hereof shall be
deemed to be a proper election by Buyer or Operator, respectively, to terminate
the Club Purchase Agreement and that a proper election by either Buyer or
Operator to terminate the Club Purchase Agreement at any time in accordance
with any of the terms thereof shall be deemed to be a proper election by Buyer
or Seller, respectively, to terminate this Agreement.

                          (vii)   CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY.  Buyer's approval,
in its sole discretion, on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence
Period, of any and all aspects of the Property and/or its operations, including
without limitation all parts, components, and conditions thereof (including,
without limitation, heating, electrical, plumbing, sewer, paving, amenities,
air conditioning, water, and roof, and geological and soils and environmental
conditions and construction quality).  Buyer's failure to give notice to Seller
terminating this Agreement on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence
Period shall conclusively be deemed to be Buyer's approval of any and all
aspects of the Property and/or its operations.  Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, the "Due Diligence Period" shall mean the period from May 2,
1997 to and including the Closing Date (which actual date of Closing may differ
from the deemed date for Closing set forth in Section 2.2).  Without limiting
the foregoing, the Due Diligence Period under this Agreement shall
automatically be extended if and to the extent that the "Due Diligence Period"
under the Club Purchase Agreement is extended.

                          (viii)  NO PROCEEDING.  There is no Proceeding
pending or threatened pertaining to the Transactions or their consummation by
any Person.

                          (ix)    CC&R AMENDMENT.  Deposit Holder shall hold,
for recordation by Deposit Holder prior to Deposit Holder's recordation of the
Deed, one fully executed and notarized original of the CC&R Amendment.

                 8.2      Seller shall have the right to modify, update and
supplement all representations, warranties, exhibits and schedules attached to
or delivered in connection with this Agreement through the Closing Date (any
such modification, update or supplement, a "Modification").  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if Seller makes any Modification and if such Modification would
be likely to have a material adverse effect upon the Property and/or its
operations, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by
giving a notice to Seller terminating this Agreement within 5 days of Buyer's
receipt of the Modification, and whether or not the Due Diligence Period has
expired.  If such 5-day period would expire after the Outside Closing Date,
then the Outside Closing Date shall be extended accordingly.  In the event of
any such termination, the Deposit shall be returned promptly to Buyer, and the
parties will have no further obligations to each other hereunder.  Buyer's
failure to give any such termination notice to Seller within such 5-day period
shall conclusively be deemed to be Buyer's approval of any such Modification.

                 8.3      If (i) Buyer shall not have been able to obtain any
Identified Approvals, (ii) any material representation or warranty of Seller
shall prove to have been inaccurate or untrue in any material respect when
first made or (iii) Seller shall not have
<PAGE>   13
performed, in any material respect, any of its material covenants contained in
this Agreement, and in each case by Closing, then Buyer shall be entitled,
without limitation, (A) not to consummate the Transactions and have the Deposit
Holder or Seller, as applicable, return to Buyer the Deposit (but without any
interest thereon for such period of time, if any, as it may have been held by
Seller) less any termination fees and expenses of Deposit Holder, or (B) to
consummate the Transactions if Seller, in its sole discretion, is willing to
consummate the Transactions on such basis.

         9.      CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO SELLER'S OBLIGATION.  Seller's
obligation to perform under this Agreement is subject to and contingent upon
the satisfaction of each and every one of the following conditions; however,
Seller's proceeding with Closing shall not be deemed to mean that any or all of
such conditions were satisfied or waived, nor shall it impair in any manner
Seller's right to rely on Buyer's representations and warranties contained
herein.

                          (i)     All Delivery items shall have been deposited
into the Escrow.

                          (ii)    All of the representations and warranties of
Purchaser contained herein shall be true and correct in all material respects
on and as of the Closing Date as though remade and republished as of said date.

                          (iii)   Purchaser shall have performed and complied
with all of its obligations and covenants hereunder in all material respects.

                          (iv)    The closing of the purchase and sale under
the Club Purchase Agreement shall have occurred simultaneously with Closing
hereunder.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, Buyer and Seller expressly agree that a proper election by either
Buyer or Seller to terminate this Agreement at any time in accordance with any
of the terms hereof shall be deemed to be a proper election by Buyer or
Operator, respectively, to terminate the Club Purchase Agreement and that a
proper election by either Buyer or Operator to terminate the Club Purchase
Agreement at any time in accordance with any of the terms thereof shall be
deemed to be a proper election by Buyer or Seller, respectively, to terminate
this Agreement.

                          (v)     There is no Proceeding pending or threatened
pertaining to the Transactions or their consummation by any Person.

         10.     REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER.  Seller represents
and warrants, to and for the benefit of the Buyer Indemnitees, as follows.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, all of the
representations and warranties made in this Section 10 are hereby made to the
Knowledge of the Seller, except that the representation and warranty made in
Section 10.5 shall not be made to Seller's Knowledge if and to the extent there
shall be any Breach of such representation and warranty giving rise to any
Damages for which payment shall not be available pursuant to the policy of
title insurance to be issued, upon recordation of the Deed, to Buyer as
required in Section 4.3.

in writing against the Seller by, or any settlement reached by the Seller with,
any party or parties alleging that the Seller is liable for the presence,
disposal, release or threatened release of any Hazardous Material on, from,
under or onto the Real Property or improvements thereon or for a violation or
alleged violation of any applicable Environmental Laws relating to the Real
Property and improvements thereon.  Seller is and at all times was in

any Legal Requirement relating to all or any part of the Property of which
Seller had knowledge prior to Closing.  The Tangible Personalty includes all
personal property located on the Real Property or in the improvements thereon
at the time of Buyer's inspection (other than the personal property of
tenants).

                 10.5     No person or entity has any right, title or interest

similar claim or lien presently claimed or which will be claimed against the
Property for work performed or commenced, or material supplied, prior to
Closing.

                 10.12    None of the Contract Rights or the Tangible

authorization to enter into and carry out this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby.

                 10.14    There is no default under any existing encumbrance on
any of the Property (nor has any event occurred which, with the passage of
time, giving of notice, or both, would constitute such a default).  Such
existing encumbrances secure no obligation other than those which have been
disclosed to Buyer.  Except as otherwise required by the terms of Section 3,
upon Closing all such encumbrances shall have been satisfied in full and
released.

                 10.15    There is no suit, action or arbitration, bond

disclosed to Buyer in writing prior to the date of this Agreement, or, in the
case of any such requirement, fully complied with.

                 10.16    The use by Buyer of any name, trademark, trade style
or trade name presently being used in connection with the Property will not,
and such present use does not now, infringe any copyright or any United States

except for any rights that ANC, Inc.  may have in and to the name "Green
Valley" and associated logo, as previously disclosed in writing to Buyer.

                 10.18    This Agreement, when executed by Seller, shall have
been duly and properly executed and neither the execution of this Agreement nor
the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby will constitute:

                          (i)     a default or an event which with notice or
the passage of time or both would constitute a default under, or violation or
breach of, any indenture, license, lease, franchise, mortgage, deed of trust,
or other instrument or agreement to which Seller is a party or by which Seller
or Seller's property, including without limitation the Property, may be bound,
or

                          (ii)    an event which would permit any party to any
agreement or instrument affecting the Property or affecting Seller's ability to
perform its obligations hereunder to terminate it or permit the holder of any

likely to have a material adverse effect upon any thereof; it being agreed that
if any such material adverse change or any such event occurs and becomes known
to Seller and/or Buyer during the last 5 days of the Due Diligence Period, then
the Due Diligence Period shall be extended until 5 Business Days from the
earlier of (A) Buyer's actual knowledge of the material details of such
material adverse change or such event or (B) Buyer's receipt of notice from
Seller to Buyer of the material details of such material adverse change or such
event.  Seller shall immediately notify Buyer of the material details of any
such material adverse change or such event, whether the same shall occur before

material adverse change or such event shall occur within 5 days of the

and indemnify each of the Seller Indemnitees from and against, and shall
compensate and reimburse each of the Seller Indemnitees for, any Damages which
are suffered or incurred by any of the Seller Indemnitees or to which any of
the Seller Indemnitees may otherwise become subject at any time (regardless of
whether or not such Damages relate to any third-party claim) and that arise
from, or as a result of, or are connected with:

                          (i)     any Breach of any representation or warranty
made by Buyer in this Agreement or any of the Transactional Agreements;

                          (ii)    any Breach of any covenant or obligation of
Buyer in this Agreement or any of the Transactional Agreements;

                          (iii)   any Liability that arises from or relates to
any Buyer Transaction Costs;

                          (iv)    any Liability to which any of the Seller
Indemnitees may become subject and that arises from or relates to (i) any of
the Property subsequent to Closing or (ii) any Liability of the Seller
specifically assumed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or (iii) the operation
of the Property after Closing;
<PAGE>   20
                          (v)     any Proceeding commenced relating to any
Breach, Liability or matter of the type referred to in any of clauses (i), (ii)
(iii) or (iv) of this Section 13.3.

                 13.4     NONEXCLUSIVITY OF INDEMNIFICATION REMEDIES. The
indemnification remedies and other remedies provided in this Section 13 shall
not be deemed to be exclusive.  Accordingly, the exercise by any Person of any
of its rights under this Section 13 shall not be deemed to be an election of
remedies and shall not be deemed to prejudice, or to constitute or operate as a
waiver of, any other right or remedy that such Person may be entitled to
exercise.  In addition to any rights of setoff or other right or remedy that
any of the Indemnitees may be entitled to exercise (whether under this
Agreement under any other Contract, under any statute, rule or other Legal
Requirement, at common law in equity or otherwise), each Indemnitee shall have
the right to withhold and deduct any sum that may be owed to such Indemnitee
under this Section 13 from any amount otherwise payable by such Indemnitee to
the indemnifying party

                 13.5     LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNIFICATION.

                          (i)     Seller shall not be required to make any
indemnification payment pursuant to Section 13.2 for any Breach of any of its
representations and warranties until such time as the total amount of all
Damages (including the Damages arising from such Breach and all other Damages
arising from any other Breaches of any representations or warranties) that have
been suffered or incurred by any one or more of the Buyer Indemnitees, or to
which any one or more of the Buyer Indemnitees has or have otherwise become
subject, exceeds $50,000 in the aggregate, at which time such Indemnitees shall
be entitled to be indemnified against only the amount of such Damages in excess
of $50,000.  Seller acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase of the
Property pursuant to this Agreement is specifically conditioned upon and
directly related to the purchase of the Club Assets pursuant to the Club
Purchase Agreement and (b) Buyer is also the recipient of certain
representations, warranties and indemnification from the Operator pursuant to
the Club Purchase Agreement.  Accordingly, whether the $50,000 threshold
referenced in this Section 13.5(i) has been exceeded is to be calculated
inclusive of any "Damages" that are suffered or incurred by any of the
"Purchaser Indemnitees", as referenced in Section 5.5(a) of the Club Purchase
Agreement.

                          (ii)    Buyer shall not be required to make any
indemnification payment pursuant to Section 13.3 for any Breach of any of its
representations and warranties until such time as the total amount of all
Damages (including the Damages arising from such Breach and all other Damages
arising from any other Breaches of any representations or warranties) that have
been suffered or incurred by any one or more of the Seller Indemnitees, or to
which any one or more of the Seller Indemnitees has or have otherwise become
subject, exceeds $50,000 in the aggregate, at which time such Indemnitees shall
be entitled to be indemnified against only the amount of such Damages in excess
of $50,000.  Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase of the
Property pursuant to this Agreement is specifically conditioned upon and
directly related to the purchase of the Club Assets pursuant to the Club
Purchase Agreement and (b) Operator is also the recipient of certain
representations, warranties and indemnification
<PAGE>   21
from Buyer pursuant to the Club Purchase Agreement.  Accordingly, whether the
$50,000 threshold referenced in this Section 13.5(ii) has been exceeded is to
be calculated inclusive of any "Damages" that are suffered or incurred by any
of the "Seller Indemnitees", as referenced in Section 5.5(b) of the Club
Purchase Agreement.

                          (iii)   The obligations of the parties hereto to
indemnify and hold harmless a Person, pursuant to Sections 13.2(i) and 13.3(i)
above, shall terminate when the applicable representation and warranty
terminates pursuant to Section 13.1(i) above; provided however, such obligation
to indemnify and hold harmless shall not terminate with respect to any matter
about which an Indemnitee shall have, before the expiration of the applicable
time period, delivered written notice alleging the existence of a Breach of any
of such representations and warranties and asserting a claim for recovery under
Section 13.

                 13.6     DEFENSE OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS BY SELLER.  In the
event of the assertion or commencement by any Person of any claim or Proceeding
with respect to which Seller may become obligated to indemnify, hold harmless,
compensate or reimburse any Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 13,
Seller shall defend such claim or Proceeding at its sole expense, in which
case:

                          (i)     Seller shall proceed to defend such claim or
Proceeding in a diligent manner with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Buyer;

                          (ii)    Buyer shall make available to Seller any
non-privileged documents and materials in the possession of Buyer that may be
necessary to the defense of such claim or Proceeding;

                          (iii)   Seller shall endeavor to keep Buyer informed
of all material developments and events relating to such claim or Proceeding;

                          (iv)    Buyer shall have the right to participate, at
its own cost, in the defense of such claim or Proceeding;

                          (v)     Buyer shall cooperate with Seller, in a
timely manner, in the defense of such claim or Proceeding; and

                          (vi)    Seller shall have the right to settle, adjust
or compromise such claim or Proceeding with the prior written consent of Buyer;
provided, however, that Buyer shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or
condition such consent.

                 13.7     DEFENSE OF THIRD PARTY CLAIMS BY BUYER. In the event
of the assertion or commencement by any Person of any claim or Proceeding with
respect to which Buyer may become obligated to indemnify, hold harmless,
compensate or reimburse any Seller Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 13,
Buyer shall defend such claim or Proceeding at its sole expense, in which case:

             (i)     Buyer shall proceed to defend such claim or Proceeding in a
<PAGE>   22
diligent manner with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Seller;

                          (ii)    Seller shall make available to Buyer any
non-privileged documents and materials in the possession of Seller that may be
necessary to the defense of such claim or Proceeding;

                          (iii)   Buyer shall endeavor to keep Seller informed
of all material developments and events relating to such claim or Proceeding;

                          (iv)    Seller shall have the right to participate,
at its own cost, in the defense of such claim or Proceeding;

                          (v)     Seller shall cooperate with Buyer, in a
timely manner, in the defense of such claim or Proceedings; and

                          (vi)    Buyer shall have the right to settle, adjust
or compromise such claim or Proceeding with the prior written consent of
Seller; provided, however, that Seller shall not unreasonably withhold, delay
or condition such consent.

                 13.8     EXERCISE OF REMEDIES BY INDEMNITEES. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, no Indemnitee (other than Buyer or any
successor thereto or assign thereof for the Buyer Indemnitees or Seller or any
successor thereto or assign thereof for the Seller Indemnitees) shall be
permitted to assert any indemnification claim or exercise any other remedy
under this Agreement.

         14.     ADDITIONAL COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS.  In addition to such
other covenants of Seller as are contained elsewhere in this Agreement, Seller
covenants and agrees as follows:

                 14.1     From and after the date hereof until Closing, Seller
shall lease or rent no space at the Property (including renewal of an existing
tenancy) without Buyer's prior approval, nor shall Seller otherwise deviate
from its ordinary and customary operation, maintenance, or management of the
Property.

                 14.2     Seller shall not further encumber the Property or any
part thereof, convey any interest therein (other than to Buyer pursuant hereto)
without Buyer's prior consent, or accept any additional advance or funds
secured or to be secured by any existing encumbrance on any of the Property, or
permit either of them, or any other note or encumbrance to which any part of
the Property is subject, to become in default prior to Closing. Seller shall
not enter into any new service, maintenance, supply or other contract affecting
the Property in any way prior to Closing without Buyer's prior approval unless
such contract is cancelable at any time on thirty days' notice or less, without
cost to Buyer.

                 14.3     Seller shall not, prior to Closing, cancel or reduce
the amount of coverage of any insurance policy covering the Property or any
part thereof.
<PAGE>   23
                 14.4     At or prior to Closing Seller, at its expense, shall
have fully complied with all bulk sales laws (if any) applicable to the
transaction contemplated hereby, and shall have obtained all necessary
governmental approvals, if any, needed by Seller to consummate the transaction
contemplated hereby.

                 14.5     [Intentionally omitted.]

                 14.6     [Intentionally omitted.]

                 14.7     [Intentionally omitted.]

                 14.8     [Intentionally omitted.]

                 14.9     At or prior to Closing Seller shall satisfy in full
all monetary obligations secured by any part of the Property, except as
otherwise required by the terms of Section 3.

                 14.10    At or prior to Closing, Seller shall provide to Buyer
an affidavit signed under penalty of perjury and complying with the
requirements of U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 1445(b)(2).  If Seller shall
not have timely furnished to Buyer said affidavit, Buyer may, at its option,
either (i) adjourn the closing until such time as Seller has complied with the
conditions set forth herein, and such adjournment shall not place Buyer in
default of its obligations hereunder, or alternatively (ii) Buyer may withhold
from the Purchase Price and remit to the Internal Revenue Service a sum equal
to 10% of the Purchase Price in accordance with the withholding obligations
imposed upon Buyer pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 1445.  Such
withholding shall not place Buyer in default under this Agreement, and Seller
shall not be entitled to claim that such withholding shall excuse Seller's
performance under this Agreement.

                 14.11    From and after the date hereof and through and
including the Closing and for so long as Buyer shall not be in default under
this Agreement, Seller shall not directly or indirectly, solicit or initiate
discussions or engage in negotiations with, or provide any information to, or
authorize any financial advisor or other person to solicit or initiate
discussions or engage in negotiations with, or provide any such information to,
any corporation, partnership, person or other entity or group (other than
Buyer) concerning any possible proposal regarding a sale or other similar
transaction, direct or indirect, involving all or a substantial portion of the
Property.

                 14.12    From the date hereof through the Closing Date, Seller
shall give Buyer and its Representatives, or cause them to be permitted, during
normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, full access to all
properties, books, files, data, contracts, leases, commitments and records of
or pertaining to the Property, and during this period Seller shall furnish
Buyer with all financial and operating data and all other information as to the
business, properties and assets of or pertaining to the Property as Buyer may
from time to time reasonably request; provided, however, that such access and
investigation shall not
<PAGE>   24
interfere with the conduct of the Property by Seller.  At Buyer's reasonable
request, Seller shall direct its Representatives to cooperate with Buyer
pursuant to this Section 14.12 at no additional cost to Buyer.  In undertaking
its due diligence, Buyer shall not disturb, to the minimum extent reasonably
possible, the operations of the Property and will communicate with only those
employees of Seller as Seller shall reasonably authorize with the scope and
tenor of such communications to be subject to the reasonable prior approval of
Seller; it being agreed, however, that the purpose of the foregoing
restrictions are to minimize disruption to the operations of the Property, to
the minimum extent reasonably possible, and to preserve its value as a going
concern and not to limit the scope or depth of the information to be made
available to Buyer in its due diligence.  The exercise by Buyer of any of the
preceding rights, or any other act of Buyer, shall not negate any
representation, warranty or covenant of Seller or modify any of Buyer's rights
or Seller's obligations in the event of any Breach by Seller of any of Seller's
representations, warranties or covenants of this Agreement.  Buyer shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all Damages
arising out of any entry within the Property by Buyer or its Representatives.
The indemnification of Seller by Buyer in the preceding sentence shall survive
any termination of this agreement or the Closing for a period of 3 years from
and after the date of termination or the Closing, as the case may be.

                 14.13    From the date hereof until the Closing, Seller shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to preserve the Property's business and
its organization intact, including without limitation to preserve Seller's
present relationships with suppliers, customers and others having business
relationships with Seller regarding the Property.  Seller shall promptly
arrange for any utility service in Seller's name relating to the Real Property
to be transferred to Buyer at Closing.

                 14.14    Each of the parties hereto will use such party's
commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the transaction contemplated by
this Agreement and shall not take any action inconsistent with such party's
obligations hereunder or which could hinder or delay the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.

                 14.15    Subject to the provisions contained in this Section
14.15 and any covenants, conditions and restrictions of record, Buyer shall,
subject to force majeure and casualty affecting all or a substantial portion
(95% of the square footage of improvements including any improvements related
and incidental to the operations) of the Club and/or Real property and for a
period not to exceed twelve (12) months as a result of any such act,
continuously remain open and operate the Club for a period of not less than
five (5) years from and after the Closing Date.  The Club shall be operated and
maintained by Buyer at the highest brand standard of Buyer comparable in design
and function to Buyer's Sports Club brand as represented by Buyer's Los
Angeles, California, Irvine, California and New York City, New York locations
as of the Closing Date ("Operational Standard").  The obligations of Buyer to
operate the Club at the Operational Standard shall apply to Buyer and any owner
of all or any portion of the Club and/or Real Property who is an Affiliate of
Buyer.

                 14.16    Up to 10 memberships at the Club, to be held from 
time to time by
<PAGE>   25
such individuals as Seller shall, from time to time, designate in writing to
Buyer, shall be honored by Buyer from and after Closing but only for so long as
Buyer or its Affiliates shall continue to operate the Club.  Such memberships
shall be at the highest level of membership available, from time to time, to
members of the Club, shall require the payment of no monthly dues or initiation
fees or any fees for a membership benefit if such benefit is offered for sale
as a component of a particular membership category, but shall otherwise be
subject to Buyer's rules and regulations for Club memberships and the general
operations of the Club applied on a non-discriminatory basis.  Any individual
holding such a membership shall, for so long as such individual holds such
membership and maintains his or her primary residence in Clark County, Nevada,
be entitled, if at all, to use any health and fitness facility operated by
Buyer or any affiliate of Buyer, as a visitor and otherwise upon the same terms
and conditions (including, without limitation, the payment of the same charges)
as the holder of the highest level of membership benefits at the Club then
offered for sale who had paid an initiation fee for such level of benefits
would be entitled, as a visitor, to use such health and fitness facility.

         15.     FEES AND EXPENSES.

                 15.1     Subject to the provisions of Section 13 (including
the indemnification and other obligations of Buyer thereunder) Seller shall
bear and pay all its own Transaction Costs and all Transaction Costs (including
all legal fees and expenses payable to Jolley, Urga, Wirth & Woodbury) that
have been incurred or that are in the future incurred by, on behalf of or for
the benefit of, the Seller (the "Seller Transaction Costs).

                 15.2     Subject to the provisions of Section 13 (including
the indemnification and other obligations of Seller thereunder), Buyer shall
bear and pay all Transaction Costs (including all legal fees and expenses
payable to Resch Polster Alpert & Berger LLP) that have been incurred or that
are in the future incurred by, or on behalf of or for the benefit of, Buyer
(the "Buyer Transaction Costs").

         16.     BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS.  Buyer and Seller each agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless from any Damages arising out of
or in connection with any claim for any brokerage commission, finder's fee,
acquisition fee or like payment asserted against the indemnified party by
virtue of any action taken or allegedly taken by the indemnifying party in
connection with the Acquisition.  Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Buyer will pay a single $100,000 commission to The Weatherby
Company, who represents Buyer, at Closing with respect to the Property and the
Club Assets and will satisfy any other obligation owed to The Weatherby Company
in connection with the closing of the Acquisition and the acquisition of the
Club Assets.

         17.     PUBLICITY; CONFIDENTIALITY. At all times before and after the
Closing Date and except as may otherwise be required by any Legal Requirement
or by the rules and regulations of the American Stock Exchange or the
Securities and Exchange Commission:

                 17.1     No press release or other publicity concerning any of
the Transactions shall be issued or otherwise disseminated by or on behalf of
the parties hereto unless
<PAGE>   26
mutually agreed upon by the parties in advance.  The parties shall issue a
mutually approved press release promptly following Closing.  Each of the
parties shall continue to keep the existence and terms of this Agreement and
the other Transactional Agreements strictly confidential except to the extent
such information is publicly available, lawfully obtained from independent
sources or as may be required by any Legal Requirement.

                 17.2     Buyer agrees to keep confidential and not to disclose
to any third party, other than to Buyer's actual or potential lenders or
investors or their Representatives, who in turn will agree to hold such
information confidential, any information and material obtained from Seller or
any of its Representatives or to which Buyer has access related to the business
and assets of Seller except to the extent such information is publicly
available, previously lawfully known to Buyer, lawfully obtained from
independent sources or as may be required by any Legal Requirement.  No such
information shall be used by any such party for their own benefit.  Buyer will
promptly return, and cause all of its actual and potential lenders, investors
and each of its and their respective Representatives promptly to return, any
and all such information to Seller if Closing does not occur, for any reason
whatsoever.

                 17.3     Seller agrees to keep confidential and not to
disclose to any third party, other than to Seller's actual or potential lenders
or investors or their Representatives, who in turn will agree to hold such
information confidential, any information and material obtained from Buyer or
any of their respective Representatives or to which Seller has access related
to the business and assets of Buyer except to the extent such information is
publicly available, previously lawfully known to Seller, lawfully obtained from
independent sources or as may be required by any Legal Requirement.  No such
information shall be used by any such party for their own benefit.  Seller will
promptly return, and cause all of its actual and potential lenders, investors
and each of its and their respective Representatives promptly to return, any
and all such information to Buyer if Closing does not occur, for any reason
whatsoever.

         18.     DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.  Should the improvements at the Real
Property be destroyed or damaged prior to Closing, Buyer may, at its election:

                 18.1     Terminate this Agreement without any liability to
Seller, upon notice to Seller and Deposit Holder, in which case the Deposit
shall forthwith be returned to Buyer by, as applicable, Deposit Holder or
Seller; or

                 18.2     Proceed with the purchase of the Property pursuant to
this Agreement with no reduction in the Purchase Price, except for a reduction
in an amount equal to the deductible under any applicable insurance coverage,
but excluding any available business interruption or rental interruption
insurance.  In such case, all insurance proceeds, if any, including without
limitation any business interruption and/or rental interruption insurance
proceeds, shall be assigned to (and if received by Seller, then delivered to
and retained by Buyer, subject to the rights of existing lienholders, and,
subject to such rights, Buyer shall be entitled to settle the loss with
Seller's insurers.
<PAGE>   27
         19.     CONDEMNATION.  In the event that condemnation or eminent
domain proceedings affecting all or any part of the Property are initiated
after the execution of this Agreement and prior to Closing, Buyer may, at its
option, terminate this Agreement by notifying Seller and Deposit Holder, in
which case the Deposit shall be forthwith returned to Buyer by, as applicable,
Deposit Holder or Seller, and neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any further
liability to one another hereunder, or, alternatively, Buyer may consummate the
transaction provided for herein, in which event Seller shall assign to Buyer
all of its right, title and interest in and to any award made or to be made in
connection with such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings.

         20.     MISCELLANEOUS.
