 9.5 The Parties acknowledge that extensive local, state and Federal
legislation establish broad liability upon owners and/or users of real property for the investigation and remediation of Hazardous Substances. The determination of the existence of a Hazards Substance Condition and the evaluation of the impact of
such a condition are highly technical and beyond the expertise of Brokers. The Parties acknowledge that they have been advised by Brokers to consult their own technical and legal experts with respect to the possible presence of Hazardous Substances
on the Property or adjoining properties, and Buyer and Seller are not relying upon any investigation by or statement of Brokers with respect thereto. The Parties hereby assume all responsibility for the impact of such Hazardous Substances upon their
respective interests herein.

 (a) The cash portion of the Purchase Price and such additional sums as are required of Buyer under this Agreement shall be deposited by
Buyer with Escrow Holder, by federal funds wire transfer, or any other method acceptable to Escrow Holder as immediately collectable funds, no later than 2:00 P.M. on the business day prior to the Expected Closing Date. 
  
 (b) If a Purchase Money Note and Purchase Money Deed of
Trust are called for by this Agreement, the duly executed originals of those documents, the Purchase Money Deed of Trust being in recordable form, together with evidence of fire insurance on the improvements in the amount of the full replacement
cost naming Seller as a mortgage loss payee, and a real estate tax service contract (at Buyer’s expense), assuring Seller of notice of the status of payment of real property taxes during the life of the Purchase Money Note. 
  
 (c) The Assignment and Assumption of Lessor’s Interest
in Lease form specified in paragraph 10.2(c) above, duly executed by Buyer. 
  
 (d) Assumptions duly executed by Buyer of the obligations of Seller that accrue after Closing under any Other Agreements. 
  
 (e) If applicable, a written assumption duly executed by Buyer of the loan documents with respect to Existing Notes. 
  
 (f) If the Buyer is a corporation, a duly executed corporate
resolution authorizing the execution of this Agreement and the purchase of the Property. 
  
 10.4 At Closing, Escrow Holder shall cause to be issued to Buyer a standard coverage (or ALTA extended, if elected pursuant to 9.1(g)) owner’s form policy of title insurance effective as of the Closing, issued by
the Title Company in the full amount of the Purchase Price, insuring title to the Property vested in Buyer, subject only to the exceptions approved by Buyer. In the event there is a Purchase Money Deed of Trust in this transaction, the policy of
title insurance shall be a joint protection policy insuring both Buyer and Seller. 
  
 IMPORTANT: IN A PURCHASE OR EXCHANGE OF REAL PROPERTY, IT MAY BE ADVISABLE TO OBTAIN TITLE INSURANCE IN CONNECTION WITH THE CLOSE OF ESCROW SINCE THERE MAY BE PRIOR RECORDED LIENS AND ENCUMBRANCES WHICH AFFECT YOUR INTEREST IN THE
PROPERTY BEING ACQUIRED. A NEW POLICY OF TITLE INSURANCE SHOULD BE OBTAINED IN ORDER TO ENSURE YOUR INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY THAT YOU ARE ACQUIRING. 
  
 11. Prorations and Adjustments. 
  
 11.1 Taxes. Applicable real property taxes and special assessment bonds shall be prorated through Escrow as of the date of the Closing, based upon
the latest tax bill available. The Parties agree to prorate as of the Closing any taxes assessed against the Property by supplemental bill levied by reason of events occurring prior to the Closing. Payment of the prorated amount shall be made
promptly in cash upon receipt of a copy of any supplemental bill. 
  
 11.2 Insurance. WARNING: Any insurance which Seller may have maintained will terminate on the Closing. Buyer is advised to obtain appropriate insurance to cover the property. 
  
 11.3 Rentals, Interest and Expenses. Scheduled rentals, interest on
Existing Notes, utilities, and operating expenses shall be prorated as of the date of Closing. The Parties agree to promptly adjust between themselves outside of Escrow any rents received after the Closing. 
  
 11.4 Security Deposit. Security Deposits held by Seller shall by given
to Buyer as a credit to the cash required of Buyer at the Closing. 
  
 11.5 Post Closing Matters. Any item to be prorated that is not determined or determinable at the Closing shall be promptly adjusted by the Parties by appropriate cash payment outside of the Escrow when the amount due is determined.

  
 11.6 Variations in Existing Note Balances. In the event
that Buyer is purchasing the Property subject to an Existing Deed of Trust(s), and in the event that a Beneficiary Statement as to the applicable Existing Note(s) discloses that the unpaid principal balance of such Existing Note(s) at the closing
will be more or less than the amount set forth in paragraph 3.1(c) hereof (“Existing Note Variation”), then the Purchase Money Note(s) shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to such Existing Note Variation. If there is to
be no Purchase Money Note, the cash required at the Closing per paragraph 3.1(a) shall be reduced or increased by the amount of such Exiting Note Variation. 
  
 11.7 Variations in New Loan Balance. In the event Buyer is obtaining a New Loan and the amount ultimately obtained exceeds the amount set forth in
paragraph 5.1, then the amount of the Purchase Money Note, if any, shall be reduced by the amount of such excess.

Compliance. Seller has no knowledge of any aspect or condition of the Property which violates applicable laws, rules, regulations, codes or covenants, conditions or restrictions, or of improvements or alterations made to the Property without
a permit where one was required, or any unfulfilled order or directive of any applicable governmental agency or casualty insurance company requiring any investigation, remediation, repair, maintenance or improvement be performed on the Property.

Agreement, Buyer is purchasing the Property in its existing condition and will, by the time called for herein, make or have waived all inspections of the Property Buyer believes are necessary to protect its own interest in, and its contemplated use
of, the Property. The Parties acknowledge that, except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, no representations, inducements, promises, agreements, assurance, oral or written, concerning the Property, or any aspect of the occupational safety and
health laws, Hazardous Substance laws, or any other act, ordinance or law, have been made by either party or Brokers, or relied upon by either Party hereto. 
  
 12.3 In the event that Buyer learns that a Seller representation or warranty might be untrue prior to the Closing, and Buyer elects to purchase the
Property anyway then, and in that event, Buyer waives any right that it may have to bring an action or proceeding against Seller or Brokers regarding said representation or warranty. 
  
 12.4 Any environmental reports, soils reports, surveys, and other similar documents which were prepared by third party
consultants and provided to Buyer by Seller or Seller’s representatives, have been delivered as an accommodation to Buyer and without any representation or warranty as to the sufficiency, accuracy, completeness, and/or validity of said
documents, all of which Buyer relies on at its own risk. Seller believes said documents to be accurate, but Buyer is advised to retain appropriate consultants to review said documents and investigate the Property. 
  
 13. Possession. 
  
 Possession of the Property shall be given to Buyer at the Closing subject to the rights of tenants under Existing Leases.

 At any time during the Escrow period, buyer, and its agents and representatives, shall have the right at reasonable times and subject to
rights of tenants, to enter upon the Property for the purpose of making inspections and tests specified in this Agreement. No destructive testing shall be conducted, however, without Seller’s prior approval, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Following any such entry or work, unless otherwise directed in writing by Seller, Buyer shall return the Property to the condition it was in prior to such entry or work, including the recompaction or removal of any disrupted soil or
material as Seller may reasonably direct. All such inspections and tests and any other work conducted or materials furnished with respect to the Property by or for Buyer shall be paid for by Buyer as and when due and Buyer shall indemnify, defend,
protect and hold harmless Seller and the Property of and from any and all claims, liabilities, losses, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), damages, including those for injury to person or property, arising out of or relating to any
such work or materials or the acts or omissions of Buyer, its agents or employees in connection therewith. 
  
 15. Further Documents and Assurances. 
  
 The Parties shall each, diligently and in good faith, undertake all actions and procedures reasonably required to place the Escrow in condition for Closing as and when required by this Agreement. The Parties agree to provide all further
information, and to execute and deliver all further documents, reasonably required by Escrow Holder or the Title Company. 
  
 16. Attorneys’ Fees. 
  
 If any Party or Broker brings an action or proceeding (including arbitration) involving the Property whether founded in tort, contract or equity, or to declare rights
hereunder, the Prevailing Party (as hereafter defined) in any such proceeding, action, or appeal thereon, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees. Such fees may be awarded in the same suit or recovered in a separate suit, whether or not
such action or proceeding is pursued to decision or judgment. The term “Prevailing Party” shall include, without limitation, a Party or Broker who substantially obtains or defeats the relief sought, as the case may be, whether by
compromise, settlement, judgment, or the abandonment by the other Party or Broker of its claim or defense. The attorney’s fees award shall not be computed in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully reimburse all
attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred. 
  
 17. Prior Agreements/Amendments.

  
 17.1 This Agreement supersedes any and all prior
agreements between Seller and Buyer regarding the Property. 
  
 17.2 Amendments to this Agreement are effective only if made in writing and executed by Buyer and seller. 
  
 18. Broker’s Rights. 
  
 18.1 If this sale is not consummated due to the default of either the Buyer or Seller, the defaulting Party shall be liable to and shall pay to Brokers
the Brokerage Fee that Brokers would have received had the sale been consummated. If Buyer is the defaulting party, payment of said Brokerage Fee is in addition to any obligation with respect to liquidated or other damages. 
  
 18.2 Upon the Closing, Brokers are authorized to publicize the facts of this

business day. 
  
 19.3 Any Party or Broker hereto may from time to
time, by notice in writing, designate a different address to which, or a different person or additional persons to whom, all communications are thereafter to be made.

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

an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Escrow Holder, after verifying that the counterparts are identical except for the signatures, is authorized and instructed to combine the signed signature pages on

 23.5 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING INVOLVING THE PROPERTY OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. 
  
 23.6 Conflict. Any conflict between the printed provisions of this

 23.7 1031 Exchange. Both Seller and Buyer agree to cooperate with each other in the event that either or both wish to participate in a 1031
exchange. Any party initiating an exchange shall bear all costs of such exchange. 
  
 24. Disclosures Regarding The Nature of a Real Estate Agency Relationship. 
  
 24.1 The Parties and Brokers agree that their relationship(s) shall be governed by the principles set forth in the applicable sections of the California
Civil Code, as summarized in paragraph 24.2. 
  
 24.2 When
entering into a discussion with a real estate agency regarding a real estate transaction, a Buyer or Seller should from the outset understand what type of agency relationship or representation it has with the agent or agents in the transaction.
Buyer and Seller acknowledge being advised by the Brokers in this transaction, as follows: 
  
 (a) Seller’s Agent. A Seller’s agent under a listing agreement with the Seller acts as the agent for the Seller only. A
Seller’s agent or subagent has the following affirmative obligations: (1) To the Seller: A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Seller. (2) To the Buyer and the Seller: a
Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent’s duties. b. A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. c. A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the
property that are not known to, or within the diligent attention and observation of, the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmative
duties set forth above. 
  
 (b) Buyer’s
Agent. A selling agent can, with a Buyer’s consent, agree to act as agent for the Buyer only. In these situations, the agent is not the Seller’s agent, even if by agreement the agent may receive compensation for services rendered,
either in full or in part from the Seller. An agent acting only for a Buyer has the following affirmative obligations. (1) To the Buyer: A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Buyer.
(2) To the Buyer and the Seller: a. Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent’s duties. b. A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. c. A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent
materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent attention and observation of, the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from
the other Party which does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above. 
  
 (c) Agent Representing Both Seller and Buyer. A real estate agent, either acting directly or through one or more associate
licenses, can legally be the agent of both the Seller and the Buyer in a transaction, but only with the knowledge and consent of both the Seller and the Buyer. (1) In a dual agency situation, the agent has the following affirmative obligations,
to both the Seller and the Buyer: a. A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with either Seller or the Buyer. b. Other duties to the Seller and the Buyer as stated above in their respective sections (a) or
(b) of this paragraph 24.2. (2) In representing both Seller and Buyer, the agent may not without the express permission of the respective

Party, disclose to the other Party that the Seller will accept a price less than the listing price or that the Buyer will pay a price greater than the price
offered. (3) the above duties of the agent in a real estate in a transaction do not relieve a Seller or Buyer from the responsibility to protect their own interests. Buyer and Seller should carefully read all agreements to assure that they
adequately express their understanding of the transaction. A real estate agent is a person qualified to advice about real estate. If legal or tax advice is desired, consult a competent professional. 
  
 (d) Further Disclosures. Throughout this transaction
Buyer and Seller may receive more than one disclosure, depending upon the number of agents assisting in the transaction. Buyer and Seller should each read its contents each time it is presented, considering the relationship between them and the real
estate agent in this transaction and that disclosure. Brokers have no responsibility with respect to any default or beach hereof by either Party. The liability (including court costs and attorney’s fees), of any Broker with respect to any
breach of duty, error or omission relating to this Agreement shall not exceed the fee received by such Broker pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation on each Broker’s liability shall not be applicable to any
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Broker. 
  
 24.3
Confidential Information: Buyer and Seller agree to identify to Broker’s “Confidential” any communication or information given Brokers that is considered by Such Party to be confidential. 
  
 25. Construction of Agreement. In construing this Agreement, all headings and titles
are for the convenience of the parties only and shall not be considered a part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context, the singular shall include the plural and vice versa. Unless otherwise specifically indicated to the contrary, the
word “days” as used in this Agreement shall mean and refer to refer to calendar days. This Agreement shall not be construed as if prepared by one of the parties, but rather according to its fair meaning as a whole, as if both parties had
prepared it. 
  
 26. Additional Provisions: 
  
 Additional Provisions of this offer, if any, are as follows or are attached hereto by an
addendum consisting of paragraphs 27 through 28. (If there are no additional provisions write “NONE”.) 
  
 27. Upon closing of Escrow, Seller shall transfer to Buyer any Tenant Security Deposits in its possession or for which it is obligated per existing lease. 
  
 28. Buyer shall have a thirty (30) day contingency period from the date of mutual
acceptance of Agreement to satisfy itself that the building’s vacant space will meet Buyer’s intended occupancy requirements.

 1. SEEK ADVICE OF COUNSEL AS TO THE LEGAL AND TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THIS AGREEMENT. 
  
 2. RETAIN APPROPRIATE CONSULTANTS TO REVIEW AND INVESTIGATE THE CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY. SAID INVESTIGATION SHOULD INCLUDE BUT NOT BE LIMITED TO: THE POSSIBLE

 WARNING: IF THE PROPERTY IS LOCATE IN A STATE OTHER THAN CALIFORNIA, CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF
THIS AGREEMENT MAY NEED TO BE REVISED TO COMPLY WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE IN WHICH THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED.

 2. IF THE BUYER IS A CORPORATION, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THIS AGREEMENT BE SIGNED BY TWO CORPORATE OFFICERS.

 The parties agree and instruct the Escrow Agent to amend the current Escrow No. NE200827 – M26 as follows:

  
 1. The purchase price shall be reduced to $9,600,000; 
  
 2. The sale contingency period set forth in Section 28 shall be extended by 24 days to
close of business on August 17, 2005, for the purpose of the Purchaser assessing whether the parking and use ordinances applicable to the property (as more particularly described in Section 9.1 (e)) allow for the Purchaser’s intended
use; 
  
 3. The Purchaser agrees to waive the further contingencies set forth in
Section (s) 9.1 (a) thru (d) and (f) thru (l); 
  
 4. The
close of escrow shall be extended to September 1, 2005; and 
  
 5. Purchaser

Seller, the sum of $75,000.00. 
  
 Purchaser may, by written mutual agreement
between Purchaser and Seller, request two additional 30 day extensions, provided Purchaser makes written request to Seller 15 days prior to the last extended closing date, gets written permission from Seller, which permission should be provided

 Upon receipt of each $75,000.00 deposit, and Seller’s agreement to each extension (except for the first extension which shall be
automatic release) escrow holder shall release to Seller the $75,000.00. 
  
 All
funds released shall be applicable to the purchase price at close of escrow, but non-refundable should escrow not close by reason of Purchaser’s default. 
  

ALL OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS ARE TO REMAIN THE SAME.
