This Real Estate Purchase and Leaseback Agreement ("AGREEMENT") is made by

contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. THE PROPERTY.
1.1 Seller agrees to sell and Purchaser agrees to purchase, upon and
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, certain
improved land located at the xxxxxxxxx xxxxxx xx Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx (x/x/x
X.X. 00) and Mt. Xxxxxx Road, and situated in the City of Xxxxx, County of

EXHIBIT "A" ("PROPERTY"). Contemporaneously with the purchase and sale of the
Property as contemplated in this Agreement, Purchaser shall lease the Property
to Seller pursuant to a Lease Agreement ("LEASE") in substantially the same form
as that attached as EXHIBIT "B."
2. PURCHASE PRICE.
2.1 The purchase price for the Property is Three Million Sixty Nine
Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($3,069,000.00) as adjusted pursuant to this
Agreement ("PURCHASE PRICE"). The Purchase Price shall be paid in federal funds
by Purchaser to the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent for the benefit of Seller at
Closing by wire transfer. The Purchase Price shall be increased to include the
closing costs paid by Seller pursuant to Section 10.1 of this Agreement.
2.2 The annual Rent under the Lease has been calculated by multiplying
the Purchase Price for the Property by a rate of 8.30% with a fifty-cent ($0.50)
per square foot increase for each successive option period.
3. XXXXXXX MONEY.
3.1 Within ten (10) days of the Effective Date of this Agreement,
Purchaser shall deposit the sum of Twenty Five Thousand and NO/100 Dollars
($25,000.00) as xxxxxxx money ("XXXXXXX MONEY") with LandAmerica National
Commercial Services, 00 XxXxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000,
Attention Xxxxxx X. Xxxx, VP National Accounts ("TITLE INSURER/ESCROW AGENT"),
which sum shall be held for the benefit of Seller by Title Insurer/Escrow Agent
in escrow, subject to disbursement in accordance with the terms and provisions
of this Agreement. Provided that Purchaser furnishes Title Insurer/Escrow Agent
with a form W-9 containing Purchaser's Social Security Number or U.S. Taxpayer
Identification Number as the case may be, and any necessary escrow documents,
the Xxxxxxx Money shall be held by Title Insurer/Escrow Agent in an
interest-bearing money market savings account, and
1
interest earned on the Xxxxxxx Money shall be reported under Purchaser's Social
Security Number or U.S. Taxpayer Identification Number, as the case may be.
3.2 Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, at Closing, the
Xxxxxxx Money and interest accrued thereon, if any, shall be returned to
Purchaser upon the Purchaser's delivery of the Purchase Price, plus or minus
prorations, to the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent by certified or cashier's check or
by wire transfer. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
the Xxxxxxx Money, and any accrued interest on it, shall be refunded to
Purchaser in the event Purchaser terminates this Agreement as provided in this
Agreement.
4. TITLE AND SURVEY MATTERS.
4.1 As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver
to Purchaser a standard owner's policy of title insurance issued by the Title
Insurer/Escrow Agent ("TITLE POLICY"). The Title Policy shall insure marketable
title to the Property in the amount of the Purchase Price, free and clear of all
liens, encumbrances and exceptions whatsoever, save and except only for those
easements, restrictions and other matters of record affecting title to the
Property which are Permitted Exceptions (as hereinafter defined).
4.2 Purchaser shall have until the end of the Due Diligence Period (as
hereinafter defined) in which to review the title commitment and as-built survey
to be delivered by Seller pursuant to Section 5.1, and to obtain any
modifications, endorsements or other revisions to either the title commitment or
the survey required by Purchaser, at Purchaser's cost. If Purchaser is unable to
obtain any modification, endorsement or other revision to the title commitment
or survey required by Purchaser, or if any items remain on the title commitment
or survey which are not acceptable to Purchaser ("UNPERMITTED EXCEPTIONS"), then
on or before the end of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall so notify
Seller (an "OBJECTION NOTICE"). Seller has a period of ten (10) days after the
date of the Objection Notice in which Seller, using good faith efforts, shall
attempt to remove such Unpermitted Matters or remedy same in a manner
satisfactory to Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion, or have the Title
Insurer/Escrow Agent commit to insure against loss or damage that may be
occasioned by such exceptions (in endorsements satisfactory to Purchaser). If
Seller does not cure any Unpermitted Exceptions to Purchaser's satisfaction
within such period, then Purchaser may either (a) terminate this Agreement by
giving written notice to Seller of such termination not later than five (5) days
following the end of the ten (10) day cure period, in which event the Xxxxxxx
Money, and all interest earned thereon, shall be returned to Purchaser and
neither party shall have any further obligations or liabilities hereunder or (b)
accept such Unpermitted Exceptions. Any item not specified in the Objection
Notice or subsequently accepted by Purchaser shall be a "PERMITTED EXCEPTION".
Seller shall be obligated to remove prior to Closing all mortgages and other
liens or encumbrances of a definite or ascertainable monetary amount, and if
Seller fails to do so, Purchaser may elect to terminate this Agreement. At the
Closing, and as a further condition of Purchaser's performance of its
obligations hereunder, Seller shall cause the Title Insurer/Escrow Agent to
deliver to Purchaser the Title Policy or a marked-up and signed commitment to
deliver same.

all tests, inspections, feasibility and other studies and all other
investigations concerning the Property that Purchaser requires (including,
without limitation, environmental tests and assessments, inspection of the
physical condition of the Property, appraisals, surveys, and investigation of
zoning and other legal requirements) to determine whether the Property is
satisfactory to Purchaser, and to notify Seller in writing of any specific
objections to it. In the event Purchaser decides not to purchase the Property
based upon Purchaser's review of the Due Diligence Information or other
investigations, Purchaser shall so notify Seller in writing within the Due
Diligence Period. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be considered terminated,
null and void, and neither party shall have any further obligation one to the
other, and the Xxxxxxx Money, and any interest earned thereon, shall be returned
to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further obligations or liabilities
hereunder. If Purchaser does not so notify Seller within the Due Diligence
Period, the parties will proceed to Closing in the manner described in this
Agreement.

other transactions contemplated hereunder shall be conditioned on satisfaction

aggregate limit for bodily injury and property damage. A certificate
of such insurance shall be provided to Landlord not later than the

described in this Section through self insurance and/or under a

its parent corporation, its subsidiaries, or controlling or
affiliated corporations, or of any assignee of this Lease, such
methods of insurance shall be deemed compliance
7
with Tenant's obligations under this Section, as to both original
coverage and renewals. During such time as no event of default is
outstanding and the tangible net worth of Tenant is not less than
Fifty Million and No/100 Dollars ($50,000,000.00) as determined
according to generally accepted accounting principles consistently
applied, Tenant may self insure the coverage referred to in Sections
15.1 and 16.1 provided that to do so does not violate any legal
requirements. Such self-insurance shall then be deemed to be
compliant with Tenant's obligations under Sections 15.1 and 16.1, as
to both original coverage and renewals.
15.3. Landlord agrees to defend, indemnify and save harmless Tenant from
and against any and all claims and demands whether from injury to

Landlord.

16.1. Tenant shall at all times during the term of this Lease and any
Lease renewals maintain "ALL RISK" insurance on the Leased Premises
insuring against all risks of physical loss or damage to property in
the amount of one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement
cost of the improvements located on the Leased Premises. A
certificate of such insurance shall be provided to Landlord not
later than the Lease Commencement Date and thereafter annually not
less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of such
coverage. Whenever Tenant shall be engaged in making any
alternation, repairs or construction work of any kind (collectively,
the "WORK") Tenant shall obtain, or cause its Contractor to obtain
completed value builder's risk insurance of the estimated cost of
the Work exceeds $250,000.00 and Tenant or its Contractor shall
obtain worker's compensation insurance or other adequate insurance
coverage covering all persons involved in the Work, whether by
Tenant, its contractors or subcontractors and with respect to when
death or bodily injury claims could be asserted against Landlord.
Landlord and any mortgagee named by Landlord from time to time shall
be named as loss payees on all policies of insurance required by
this Section 16. Such policies shall state that it may not be
canceled prior to giving Landlord and mortgagee, if any, at least
ten (10) days prior written notice in the event of non-payment of
premium, and thirty (30) days prior written notice in all other
instances. All insurance required under this Section 16 shall be
written by companies rated A-VIII or higher. The proceeds from any
such insurance shall be utilized to repair and rebuild the Leased
Premises as provided in this Section. Any deficiency between the
cost of repair and rebuilding, and the insurance proceeds, shall be
paid by Tenant.
8
16.2. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, in the event the
Leased Premises or a portion of the Leased Premises shall be
partially damaged or totally destroyed by fire or other disaster,
Tenant shall promptly cause the Leased Premises to be restored as
nearly as possible to their value and condition and character
immediately prior to such event and subject to all requirements of
Legal Requirements, subject to such changes as Tenant may reasonably
require and Landlord reasonably approves prior to commencement of
reconstruction. Due allowance shall be made for (a) reasonable time
necessary (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) for Tenant
to adjust the loss with insurance companies, and (b) delay
occasioned by strikes, lockouts, and conditions beyond the
reasonable control of Tenant, provided such delay does not exceed
six (6) months without Landlord's consent.
16.3. Should Tenant desire to carry all or part of the insurance coverage
described in this Section through self insurance and/or under a
"blanket" policy or policies covering other properties of Tenant,
its parent corporation, its subsidiaries, or controlling or
affiliated corporations, or of any assignee of this Lease, such
method of insurance shall be deemed compliance with Tenant's
obligations under this Section, as to both original coverage and
renewals.
16.4. Should the Leased Premises, or a portion of the Leased Premises, be
rendered untenantable by fire or other disaster, Rent shall not
xxxxx. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Lease, if such damage occurs during the last two (2) years of the
term of this Lease and the cost of restoration of the Leased
Premises would be more than one-third (1/3) of the replacement value
of the Leased Premises, as certified by a registered architect,
Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right to terminate this
Lease by written notice to the other given within thirty (30) days
after such occurrence. If this Lease is so terminated, all insurance
proceeds attributable to the Leased Premises shall be paid to
Landlord and Landlord alone shall have the right to settle any claim
with the insurance carrier. If Landlord elects to terminate this
Lease, such termination shall not be effective if Tenant elects
(within ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord's notice of
termination) to renew this Lease by exercising any remaining options
for extending the term of this Lease. If, at the date of the fire or
other disaster, Tenant shall have paid any Rent in advance, Tenant
shall be entitled to a proportionate refund.
16.5. Provided this Lease is not terminated as set forth in this Section,
the term of this Lease shall be automatically extended for a period
of time equal to the period of time the Leased Premises are totally
untenantable due to fire or other disaster.
17. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION
17.1. Tenant agrees not to assign to any insurance company any right or
cause of action for damage to the property of Tenant located in the
Leased Premises which Tenant now has or may subsequently acquire
against Landlord during the term of this Lease, and expressly waives
all rights of recovery for such damage.
17.2. Landlord agrees not to assign to any insurance company any right or
cause of action for damages to the property of Landlord located in
the Leased Premises which Landlord now
9
has or may subsequently acquire against Tenant during the term of
this Lease, and expressly waives all rights of recovery from such
damage.
17.3. It is specifically understood this Section shall only apply (a)
where such insurance as described in this Section allows the insured
to enter into an agreement waiving recovery rights, and (b) to the
extent insurance proceeds are recovered.
18. TENANT'S RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO LEASED PREMISES
18.1. Tenant, at its own expense during the term of this Lease, may make
any alterations or additions to the Leased Premises which it may
deem necessary, except changes which would impair the structural
integrity of the Leased Premises, or result, after giving
consideration to the completed alteration, in a diminution in value
of the Leased Premises (unless approved by Landlord). Tenant shall
make all changes in accordance with applicable governmental
regulations. All salvage from such work shall belong to Tenant. All
permanent improvements shall belong to Landlord. Tenant shall
promptly pay all costs and expenses of any such alteration, and

out of the same.
18.2. All trade fixtures and equipment and other personal property owned
by Tenant and installed or placed by it in the Leased Premises may
be removed by Tenant at any time during the term of the Lease.

term of the Lease. Tenant agrees to repair any damage to the Leased
Premises occasioned by such removal.
19. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
19.1. Tenant shall have the right to assign this Lease or sublet the
Leased Premises at any time without Landlord's consent or approval.
Tenant shall give notice of any and all assignments and subleases to
Landlord, together with a copy of the applicable instrument.
19.2. Unless agreed otherwise by the parties, the assignment of this Lease
or subletting of the Leased Premises shall not relieve Tenant of its
obligations under this Lease.

reason of condemnation or under eminent domain proceedings, Landlord
or Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date when possession of
the building is taken. If a portion of the building shall be taken
under eminent domain or by reason of condemnation and if in the
opinion of Tenant, reasonably exercised, the remainder of the
building is no longer suitable for Tenant's business, this Lease, at
Tenant's option, to be exercised by notice to Landlord within sixty
(60) days of such taking, shall terminate. In such event, any
unearned Rent paid or credited in advance shall be refunded to
Tenant. If this Lease is not so terminated, Landlord shall proceed
promptly and with due diligence, to restore the building. Until so
restored, Rent shall xxxxx to the extent that Tenant shall not be
able to conduct business in a reasonable manner, and Rent for the
remaining portion of the term of this Lease shall be proportionately
reduced (based on the reduced square foot floor area of the
building).

20.2. In the event any part of the parking areas of the Leased Premises
shall be taken by reason of condemnation or under eminent domain
proceedings, or if as a result of any taking of the Leased Premises
or other property subject to an easement benefiting the Leased
Premises any driveway or curb cut access to the Leased Premises will
be closed, and if in the opinion of Tenant, reasonably exercised,
the Leased Premises are no longer suitable for Tenant's business,
this Lease, at Tenant's option by notice to Landlord within sixty
(60) days of such taking, shall terminate. If this Lease is not so
terminated, Landlord, at Landlord's expense, shall proceed promptly
and with due diligence to restore the remaining Leased Premises and
parking areas to a proper and usable condition. However, Tenant
shall not have the right to terminate this Lease if Landlord
provides alternate parking areas which are reasonably acceptable to
Tenant. Until restored, Rent shall xxxxx to the extent that Tenant
shall not be able to conduct business at the Leased Premises in a
reasonable manner, and Rent for the remaining portion of the term of
this Lease shall be proportionally reduced (based on the effect such
taking has on Tenant's business at the Leased Premises).
20.3. For purposes of this Section, the term "CONDEMNATION OR UNDER
EMINENT DOMAIN PROCEEDINGS" shall include conveyances and grants
made in anticipation of or in lieu of such proceedings.
21. TENANTS DEFAULT
21.1. Each of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant and a
breach of this Lease:
21.1.1. Any of the following which shall result in final adjudication
against Tenant:
21.1.1.1. The filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against
Tenant for adjudication, reorganization or
arrangement; or
21.1.1.2. Any proceedings for dissolution or liquidation of
Tenant; or
21.1.1.3. Any assignment for the benefit of Tenant's creditors.
21.1.2. Failure to:
21.1.2.1. Pay Rent for a period of fifteen (15) days after receipt
of written notice from Landlord to Tenant; or
21.1.2.2. Perform any other covenant or condition of this Lease
for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of
written notice from Landlord to Tenant.
21.2. In the event of any default of Tenant, in addition to any other
remedies available to Landlord by law or in equity, Landlord may
serve written notice upon Tenant that Landlord elects to terminate
this Lease upon a specified date not less than thirty (30) days
after the date of receipt of such notice. This Lease shall expire on
the date so specified as if that date had been originally fixed as
the expiration date of the term granted in this Lease unless steps
have, in good faith, been commenced promptly by Tenant to cure the
default, and are prosecuted to completion with diligence and
continuity. If the matter in question shall involve building
construction, and if Tenant shall be subject to unavoidable delay by
conditions beyond the control of Tenant, Tenant's time to perform
shall be extended for a
11
period commensurate with such delay, provided such delay does not
exceed six (6) months without Landlord's consent.
21.3. Upon termination of this Lease for Tenant's default, Landlord or its
agents may immediately or at any time after the termination,
re-enter and resume possession of the Leased Premises and remove all
persons and property from the Leased Premises, by a suitable action
or proceeding at law, without being liable for any damages, subject,
however, to Tenant's right to remove trade fixtures and personal
property, after notice to Landlord, within fifteen (15) days after
termination of the Lease. No re-entry by Landlord shall be deemed an
acceptance or a surrender of this Lease. Landlord may then, in its
own behalf, relet any portion of the Leased Premises for any period
of the remaining term for any reasonable sum to any reasonable
tenant for any reasonable use or purpose. In connection with any
reletting, Landlord may make any changes to the Leased Premises and
may grant any concessions of free rent as may be reasonably
appropriate or helpful in effecting such lease.
22. RENT UNDER TENANT'S DEFAULT
22.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, the Landlord
shall not be entitled to receive an acceleration of Rent.
Additionally, in the event this Lease shall be terminated for
Tenant's default, Landlord's sole remedy shall be to recover from
Tenant an amount equal to the amount of Rent reserved under this
Lease for the remainder of the initial term or the option period
then in effect, as the case may be, less the net rent, If any,
collected by Landlord on reletting the Leased Premises, which shall
be due and payable, by Tenant to Landlord, on the several days on
which the Rent reserved in this Lease would have become due and
payable. Net rent collected on reletting by Landlord shall be
computed by deducting from the gross rents collected all actual and
reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with the
reletting of the Leased Premises, including broker's commission and
the cost of repairing, renovating or remodeling the Leased Premises,
but not including the cost of performing any covenant required to be
performed by Landlord.
23. LANDLORD'S DEFAULT
23.1. Each of the following shall constitute a default by Landlord and a
breach of this Lease:
23.1.1 Subject to the terms of the Lease, Landlord shall neglect to
pay when due any taxes or any obligations on any mortgage or encumbrance
affecting title to the Leased Premises (to which this Lease shall be
subordinate); or
23.1.2 Landlord shall fail to make any other payment which Landlord is
obligated to pay under this Lease, and such default continues
uncured for fifteen (15) days after written notice from Tenant
to Landlord; or
12
23.1.3 In the event Landlord shall fail to perform any other
obligation specified in this Lease for a period of thirty (30) days after
receipt of written notice from Tenant to Landlord, unless steps have been, in
good faith, commenced promptly by Landlord to rectify the default and Landlord
pursues the same to completion with diligence and continuity.
23.2. In the event of Landlord's default, in addition to any other remedies
available to Tenant by law, Tenant may, but shall not be required to, cure such
default, and do all necessary work and make all necessary payments on behalf of
and at the expense of Landlord. In such event, Landlord shall, on demand, pay
Tenant the amount so paid by Tenant in curing any such default. If not paid
within thirty (30) days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord, Tenant may
withhold Rent and other payments due to Landlord and apply the Rent or other
payments to the payment of the indebtedness. Withholding of Rent or other
payments as provided in this Section or elsewhere in this Lease shall not
constitute a default by Tenant in the payment of Rent or other payments unless
Tenant shall fail to pay such amount withheld within thirty (30) days after a
final adjudication that such amount withheld is owing to Landlord.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if any
Landlord default as is described in this Section continues uncured for forty
five (45) days after initial written notice by Tenant, Tenant may terminate this
Lease at any time.
24. FORCE MAJEURE
24.1. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, neither
Landlord nor Tenant shall be in default of the performance of any
provisions of this Lease to the extent such performance is delayed
or prevented by strike, war, act of God, or other cause beyond the
control of the party seeking to excuse such performance; provided,
however, no such excusable delay shall exceed six (6) months.
25. SEVERABILITY
25.1. If any term or provision of this Lease (or the application of any
term of provision of this Lease to any person or circumstances)
shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Lease (or the application of such term or provision to persons
or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or
unenforceable) shall not be affected and each term and provision of
this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent
permitted by law.
26. OBLIGATION OF SUCCESSORS
26.1. All of the provisions of this Lease shall bind and inure to the
benefit of Landlord and Tenant, and their respective heirs, legal
representatives, successors and assigns. All covenants, conditions
and agreements contained in this Lease shall be construed as
covenants running with the land. Notices.

breach of the same or any other covenant, term or condition. Any
delay or omission by either party to seek a remedy for any breach of
this Lease or to exercise a right accruing to such party by reason
of such breach shall not be deemed a waiver by such party of its
remedies or rights with respect to such breach. The consent or
approval by either party to or of any act by the other party
