14.1 Prorations. Purchaser and Seller shall apportion as of midnight of the day preceding the Closing, the items hereinafter set forth. Any errors or omissions in computing apportionments at Closing shall be promptly corrected. The provisions of this Section 14 shall survive the Closing. The items to be adjusted are:
14.1.1 city, state, county, school, ad valorem taxes and other assessments for the fiscal year of sale; should such proration be inaccurate based on the actual millage set forth on the ad valorem tax bill if the current tax bill was not been received by the date of the Closing, either party may demand after the date of Closing, that such taxes and assessments be reprorated based on the actual bill and shall be entitled to receive upon demand, any amount owing to such party based on such reproration;
14.1.2 all base rent, percentage rent and additional rent and similar charges to the extent collected by the Seller, except that percentage rents shall be separately apportioned for each Tenant who is obligated to pay percentage rent on the basis of the fiscal year set forth in the Tenant’s Lease. To the extent that Seller or Purchaser receives any base
23
rent, percentage rent and/or other additional rent or other charges after the Closing, the same shall be immediately delivered to Purchaser to be applied in accordance with the terms of Section 14.2.
14.1.3 all other income and all operating expenses of the Property for the Assumed Contracts and public utility charges and any charges or payments under the REA shall be prorated at the Closing effective as of the Closing Date, and appropriate cash adjustments shall be made by Purchaser and Seller. Seller and Purchaser shall prorate public utility charges as of midnight of the day preceding the Closing based on applicable utility bills. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, there shall be no apportionment of any fees or charges with respect to Seller’s termination of the Existing Management Agreement.
14.1.4 At Closing, any prepaid rents and security deposits under the Leases (together with any interest accrued thereon) shall be transferred to Purchaser by way of a credit in favor of Purchaser. At Closing, the GH Reimbursement shall be a credit in favor of Seller.
14.1.5 At Closing, Seller shall pay (or, if Seller has not already paid, shall give Purchaser a credit against the Purchase Price) the amount of all allowances, concessions, inducements and/or landlord improvement work provided for in any of the Leases that were not fully paid or performed, except for the allowances identified in clauses “(x),” “(y)” and “(z)” of Section 8.1.9(d) and the Imperial Spa Work which allowances and work shall be Purchaser’s responsibility following the Closing.
14.1.6 At Closing, in the event any amounts are owing for leasing or brokerage commissions with respect to any of the Leases, whether such costs are payable before or after the Closing Date, Seller shall grant Purchaser a credit against the Purchase Price in the aggregate amount of any such unpaid commissions and Purchaser shall assume the obligation to pay to the applicable broker the amount actually received by Purchaser as credit in respect of the commission owing to such broker, except for the commissions due to MCC Realty Management, Inc. pursuant to the Non-Exclusive Leasing Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “O” with respect to the Great Harvest Market and the Imperial Spa Leases.
14.1.7 If, at Closing, the Property or any part thereof shall have been affected by an assessment or assessments, which are or may become payable in annual installments, of which the first installment is then a charge or lien, then for the purposes of this Agreement, all the unpaid installments of any such assessment due and payable in calendar years prior to the year in which the Closing occurs, if any, shall be paid by the Seller and all installments becoming due and payable after the Closing, if any, shall be assumed and paid by the Purchaser, except, however, that any installments which are due and payable in the calendar year in which the Closing occurs shall be adjusted pro rata.
14.2 Post-Closing Rent Application. To the extent that Seller or Purchaser receives any base rent, percentage rent and/or other additional rent or other charges after the Closing, the same shall be immediately delivered to Purchaser to be applied in accordance with
24
the terms of this Section 14.2. Any such base rent, additional rent or other charges received from a Tenant after the Closing shall be applied in the following order of priority:
1. First, to Purchaser in respect of any rents then owing for any calendar month(s) or partial month following the Closing until the Tenant under the applicable Lease is current in the payment of all such rent to the full amount provided for in its Lease (i.e., without taking into account any temporary reduction or abatement of such full rent that may be permitted pursuant to any oral or written agreement between Seller and such applicable Tenant); and
2. Second, after all amounts owing to Purchaser pursuant to subdivision 1 above of this Section 14.2 have been received by Purchaser, to Seller in respect of any rents then owing for any calendar month(s) or partial month preceding the Closing until the Tenant has paid all of such rent for the period prior to the Closing to the full amount provided for in its Lease (i.e., without taking into account any temporary reduction or abatement of such full rent that may be permitted pursuant to any oral or written agreement between Seller and such applicable Tenant).
After the Closing, Purchaser shall bill Tenants for all amounts due under their Leases accruing prior to the Closing. Purchaser shall prepare and send to Tenants all billing statements and data required by the Leases, to the extent available. Purchaser shall not be obligated to expend any funds or commence legal proceedings to collect any unpaid base rents, additional rents or percentage rents or other Tenant charges owing with respect to the period prior to the Closing. After the Closing, in the event Purchaser shall enter into any agreement with any Tenant(s) waiving or reducing any rent arrearages that may have accrued, in whole or in part, during the period prior to Closing, Purchaser shall use best efforts to obtain from such Tenant(s) an estoppel certificate or release, partly in favor of Seller, whereby such Tenant(s) shall waive all claims against the landlord that may have arisen during the period that the particular waived or reduced rent arrearages shall have accrued. After the Closing, Seller shall not have any right to initiate any legal proceeding against a Tenant to collect rent.
14.3 Final Adjustment. On or before April 30, 2011, Seller and Purchaser shall make a final adjustment in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14.3 (the “Final Closing Adjustment”) of percentage rent and other items of additional rents for which final adjustments or prorations could not be determined at the Closing, if any, because of the lack of actual statements, bills or invoices for the current period, the year end adjustment of common area maintenance, taxes and like items, the unavailability of final sales figures or amounts for percentage rent or any other reason. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate with each other in the preparation of the Final Closing Adjustment. Any net adjustment in favor of Purchaser or Seller is to be paid in cash by the other no later than forty-five (45) days after the Final Closing Adjustment.
14.4 Intentionally Omitted.
14.5 Seller’s Costs. Seller will pay:
25
14.5.1 The fees and disbursements of Seller’s counsel, and the fees and disbursements of Purchaser’s counsel;
14.5.2 All costs and expenses of the Title Company for title examination and related search fees and expenses;
14.5.3 The premium for the Title Policy and all endorsements thereto;

14.5.10 All other costs as shown on the Closing Statement as a Seller charge; and
14.5.11 All inspection and/or transfer fees imposed in connection with the transfer and reissuance of any roof warranty to Purchaser.
14.6 Oral Agreements with Tenants. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including, without limitation, Section 8.1 or Schedule “1.5” hereof), in the event, following May 1, 2010, any Tenant shall contest the fact that any oral arrangement as may be set forth on Schedule “1.5” hereof continues to apply to such Tenant (whether in an eviction proceeding prosecuted by Purchaser, as landlord, or otherwise), if there shall be a final judicial determination made in favor of such Tenant, then Seller and MCC Realty (on a joint and several basis), from and after May 1, 2010, shall be obligated to pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the difference between (a) the rent payable pursuant to the applicable Lease (as though there was no oral arrangement with such Tenant respecting a rent reduction) and (b) the amount of rent determined by such final judicial determination to be payable by such Tenant (such difference, the “Rent Deficiency”), except, that, the amount of any Rent Deficiency to be paid by Seller (and/or MCC Realty) may be reduced by the amount thereof previously and voluntarily paid by the applicable Tenant to Purchaser so long as such Tenant shall acknowledge in writing
26
that such payment is due pursuant to the applicable Lease notwithstanding any oral arrangement or judicial determination to the contrary. The obligation to pay to Purchaser any Rent Deficiency, if applicable, shall accrue from and after May 1, 2010 (and shall be retroactively paid to Purchaser if such final judicial determination shall occur thereafter). Each Rent Deficiency shall be paid to Purchaser when rent is due under the applicable Lease as though there was no oral arrangement with such Tenant until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the particular Lease for which there is a Rent Deficiency pursuant to its terms (or the earlier termination of such Lease, whether through a consensual arrangement between Purchaser and such Tenant or as a result of a final judicial determination that such Lease was terminated, provided such Tenant shall unconditionally vacate and surrender its premises to Purchaser; it being agreed that Seller and/or MCC Realty shall remain liable for all Rent Deficiencies accruing prior to such vacate and surrender) and (ii) June 30, 2013. The obligation to pay the Rent Deficiency, if applicable, shall survive the Closing, and shall not be subject to any limitation that may be provided in Section 8.3 hereof.
Section 15. Damage or Destruction Prior to Closing and Condemnation.
15.1 If prior to the Closing the Property is damaged or destroyed, but not materially damaged or destroyed, by fire or other casualty, the Purchaser shall be required to perform this Agreement and shall be entitled to the insurance proceeds received by Seller or payable pursuant to the policies of insurance maintained by Seller and a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of any deductible under such policies of insurance. If the Property is materially damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, the Purchaser may terminate this Agreement on written notice to the Seller given within ten (10) business days of the occurrence of such fire or casualty. If Purchaser shall exercise such option to terminate, then, except for obligations that the Agreement expressly states survive termination, neither party shall have any further rights against the other. If Purchaser does not exercise such option to terminate, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and Purchaser shall be entitled to the proceeds of insurance and a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of the deductible under any policies of insurance. In the event of any damage by fire or other casualty, the determination as to whether such damage or destruction is material in cost shall be made by an engineer or contractor mutually agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser. For purposes hereof, the Property shall be deemed “materially damaged or destroyed” if the cost of repair and restoration of such damage or destruction as estimated by the engineer or contractor selected by Seller and Purchaser is greater than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 ($250,000.00) Dollars or if such damage or destruction will entitle any Tenant to terminate its Lease or abate its rent in whole or in part.
15.2 In the event proceedings to condemn the Property or any portion thereof are commenced before the Closing, the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in which event, except for obligations that the Agreement expressly states survive termination, neither party shall have any further rights against the other. In the event the Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement, Seller shall assign to Purchaser, at the Closing, all of Seller’s rights, title and interest in and to any condemnation proceeds payable with respect to the Property or grant Purchaser a credit against the Purchase Price equal to the amount of any condemnation award paid to Seller.
27
Section 16. Reporting Requirements. Purchaser and Seller shall each deposit such other instruments required to close the escrow and consummate the purchase and sale of the Property in accordance with the terms hereof, including, without limitation, an agreement designating the Title Company as the “Reporting Person” for the transaction pursuant to Section 6045(e) of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and executed by Seller, Purchaser and the Title Company, but in no event shall such instruments impose, create or potentially create any liability for Seller or Purchaser not expressly provided for herein. Such agreement shall comply with the requirements of Section 6045(e) of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
Section 17. Miscellaneous.
17.1 This Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement between the parties and supersedes any other previous agreement, oral or written, between the parties. This Agreement cannot be changed, modified, waived or terminated orally but only by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns and legal representatives.
17.2 (a) If Purchaser defaults in closing under this Agreement, Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of termination to Purchaser, whereupon neither party shall have any rights, obligations or liabilities under this Agreement except for any obligations or liabilities that expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. It is agreed that Seller’s sole remedy shall be limited to the termination of this Agreement and Seller unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to specifically enforce this Agreement or to assert any claim against Purchaser for monetary damages. The provisions of this Section 17.2(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(b) Subject to the provisions of the last sentence of this Section 17.2(b), if Seller shall default in its obligations under this Agreement or if there shall be a breach of any of Seller’s representations or warranties, the parties hereto agree that Purchaser’s sole remedy shall be limited either (a) to the termination of this Agreement, subject to Seller's obligations to reimburse Purchaser for its third party out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and all due diligence costs incurred by Purchaser with respect to the Project or (b) to specific performance of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that Seller willfully and intentionally defaults in its obligations under this Agreement for the intended purpose of preventing Seller from purchasing the Property and the remedy of specific performance is not available to Purchaser, Purchaser shall have the right to pursue any remedy at law or in equity including, without limitation, a claim for money damages.
(c) In the event of a default by either party hereto which becomes the subject of litigation, the losing party agrees to pay the reasonable legal fees of the prevailing party. The provision of this subparagraph (c) shall survive the Closing or the termination of this Agreement.
28
17.3 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same original, and the execution of separate counterparts by Purchaser and Seller shall bind Purchaser and Seller as if they had each executed the same counterpart.
17.4 This Agreement shall be governed, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
17.5 The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and do not constitute substantive matters to be considered in construing same.
17.6 This Agreement may be assigned by the Purchaser to an affiliate of Purchaser without the prior written consent of the Seller provided, that Seller, no less than two (2) days prior to Closing, shall have received written notice of such assignment together with an executed copy of an assignment and assumption instrument pursuant to which the Purchaser assigns all of its right, title and interest in and to this Agreement to the assignee and the assignee assumes and agrees to be bound by all of the obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement.
17.7 Submission of this form of Agreement for examination shall not bind Seller in any manner nor be construed as an offer to sell and no contract or obligations of Seller shall arise until this instrument is executed and delivered by both Seller and Purchaser.
17.8 Each of the parties agrees that upon request from the other party following the Closing and without further consideration, such party shall do, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further acts or instruments as shall be reasonably requested by a party in order to effect or carryout the transactions contemplated herein provided same do not impose any obligations or liabilities upon the party not contemplated in this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 17.8 shall survive the Closing.
17.9 CMP and MCC shall be jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations and liabilities of the Seller under this Agreement.
17.10 Confidentiality. Purchaser will maintain strict confidentiality of all aspects of this Agreement including, without limitation, any information obtained through the due diligence process. Except as may be required by law, subpoena or other legal process, in order to comply with Purchaser’s disclosure obligations as a public company or as may be necessary to evaluate the Property for Purchaser’s acquisition and financing therefor, Purchaser will not divulge any such information to other person or entities including, without limitation, appraisers, real estate brokers, or competitors of Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have the right to disclose information with respect to the Property to officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants, environmental auditors, engineers and other consultants (collectively, “Related Parties”) to the extent necessary for Purchaser to evaluate its acquisition of the Property. The provisions of this Section 17.10 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
29

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the sum of One and no/100 ($1.00) Dollar and other good and valuable consideration, it is mutually agreed between the parties as follows:
1. Appointment and Duties.
(a) The Owner hereby appoints Agent as a non-exclusive agent to lease the Property. Agent acknowledges and agrees that Owner may enter into leasing or brokerage agreements with other brokers for the leasing of the Property (“Other Agents”) and no commission or other compensation shall be owing to Agent in connection with any leases procured by any other Agents.

(c) All advertising by Agent of the availability of the Property shall be approved in writing in advance by Owner and paid by Owner. The design and location of all signs shall be subject to Owner’s approval and shall be paid by Owner.
2. Terms.
(a) Subject to the following sentence, the term (“Term”) of this Agreement shall be for a period of 1 (year) commencing on the date hereof. Either party may terminate this Agreement without cause by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice of termination to the other party at any time, whereupon this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and of no further
O-1
force and effect as of the termination date (except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2(b) hereof).
(b) Upon the expiration of this Agreement (“Expiration), Owner shall remain liable to pay Agent any Commissions (as hereinafter defined) previously earned by Agent, as and when such Commissions shall become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Within ten (10) business days following the Expiration, Agent shall deliver to Owner a list of all potential tenants who have submitted signed letters of intent to lease space in the Property (“LOIs”) for which Agent (or Agent with an approved Co-Agent pursuant to Section 4 hereof) is the sole procuring broker, each of which LOI shall include the names of the potential tenants (or their principals), the proposed space to be leased, the proposed material lease terms including, without limitation, the term of the proposed lease, the price per rentable square foot to be paid by the proposed tenant, any rent concessions, allowances and/or free or reduced rent to be given the proposed tenant, an abbreviated description of any landlord’s work to be performed, and the name of any Co-Agent (as hereinafter defined) involved in the proposed transaction. Upon Owner’s verification of the information contained in the LOIs, Owner shall, in the event a lease is signed with the tenant listed on a particular LOI within six (6) months following the Expiration, pay to Agent all Commissions payable on account of such lease as and when such Commissions are payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
The LOIs shall be conclusive upon the Agent as to those tenants for which a Commission may be due from Owner and Agent hereby waives any right to receive a Commission on account of a lease subsequently executed by Owner with a tenant not listed on any LOI, or to receive any Commission on account of any lease subsequently executed by Owner in the event Agent fails to deliver the LOIs to Owner within ten (10) business days of the Expiration.
3. Compensation.
(a) Owner agrees to pay Agent and Agent hereby agrees to accept as full and complete compensation with respect to any lease of space in the Property during the Term a commission calculated in accordance with the commission rates set forth in Exhibit “A” annexed hereto and made a part hereof and shall be payable as set forth on Exhibit A hereto.
(b) Any Commission due to Agent shall be payable upon the terms set forth in Exhibit “A” hereto.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, no Commission shall be due or owing to Agent in the event that the commencement date does not occur due to a default of the tenant thereunder or a failure by such tenant to meet any conditions contained in the applicable lease.
4. Co-Agents.
Agent may engage other real estate brokers or salespersons (“Co-Agents”) in connection with the leasing of space in the Property. No Co-Agent shall be used, employed or otherwise retained unless such Co-Agent is reasonably approved by Owner and such Co-Agent first executes a brokerage letter agreement reasonably satisfactory to Owner (the “Co-Agent
O-2
Letter Agreement”), whereby such Co-Agent shall agree that Agent shall be solely responsible for any and all payments to such Co-Agent. Provided that Green Light Consulting Group Inc. shall deliver to Owner a Co-Agent Letter Agreement, Owner shall approve Green Light Consulting Group Inc. as a Co-Agent. In all events, Agent shall be solely responsible for any and all payments to any Co-Agent, except, that, in the event Owner has failed to timely pay to Agent any commission sums due from Owner to Agent under this Agreement, Co-Agent may make a claim against Owner for an amount not exceeding such commission.

7. Indemnity.
Agent hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Owner harmless from and against any loss, damage, claim, suit, liability or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Owner relating to or arising out of (i) the acts or omissions of Agent or its agents or employees and/or (ii) any claim for a commission or other compensation by any Co-Agent or any other person or party with whom Agent has dealt in connection with the Property, provided, that, in any such case, Owner has timely paid to Agent any sums due Agent under this Agreement. The foregoing shall not diminish the Agent’s indemnification of Owner hereunder as to any claim for compensation by a Co-Agent or any other person or party against Owner in an amount in excess of the applicable commission amount otherwise due Agent from Owner pursuant to this Agreement.

COMMISSION RATES
On the base rent for all or any fraction of:
THE 1ST THROUGH 5TH YEARS*, INCLUSIVE, OF THE INITIAL TERM OF THE LEASE. | 6.0% |
THE 6TH THROUGH 10TH YEARS*, INCLUSIVE OF THE INITIAL TERM OF A LEASE. | 3.0% |
*For purposes of calculating the Commission solely with respect to any lease for which Green Light Consulting Group Inc. shall be a Co-Agent (but not for any other lease, and not with respect to the GH Commission or Imperial Commission), the first lease year shall be determined as having commenced upon the date on which full base rent is first required to be paid, without regard to any prior free rent (or partially free rent) period, provided, that (i) Green Light Consulting Group Inc. shall have been approved by Owner as a Co-Agent pursuant to Section 4 hereof, and (ii) such lease shall provide for at least five (5) years of rent to be paid by the applicable tenant following any such free rent period.
Commissions shall be payable in two (2) installments as follows:
1. Fifty (50%) percent of the Commission shall be due and payable upon full execution and deliver of the lease, occupancy and unconditional acceptance of the leased premises by the tenant, payment of the first month’s rent and any security deposit owing under the lease and satisfaction of all contingencies to the effectiveness of the lease; and
2. Fifty (50%) percent upon the rent commencement date under the lease and payment of the monthly installment of rent owing following the rent commencement date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing (or anything to the contrary in this Non-Exclusive Leasing Agreement), with respect to that certain Lease, dated July 31, 2009, with Manisa, Inc. as tenant (as such Lease may have been amended), doing business at the Property as Great Harvest Market, Owner shall pay a Commission to Agent with respect to such Great Harvest Market Lease, in the amount of $5.00 per rentable square foot (the “GH Commission”) of such Great Harvest Market premises, as such premises may be fully measured pursuant to such lease, which GH Commission shall be paid in the following two (2) installments:
(a) Fifty (50%) percent of the GH Commission shall be due and payable upon full execution and deliver of the Great Harvest Market lease, occupancy and unconditional acceptance of the leased premises by the tenant, and satisfaction of all contingencies to the effectiveness of the lease; and
(b) Fifty (50%) percent upon the rent commencement date under the Great Harvest Market lease and payment of the monthly installment of rent owing following the rent commencement date.
O-6
In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing (or anything to the contrary in this Non-Exclusive Leasing Agreement), with respect to that certain Lease, dated November 11, 2009, with Howard Kea and Alex Kim, as tenant (as such Lease may have been amended), doing business at the Property as Imperial Spa, Owner shall pay a Commission to Agent with respect to such Lease, in the amount of $5.00 per rentable square foot (the “Imperial Commission”) of such Imperial Spa premises, as such Imperial Spa premises may be fully measured pursuant to such Lease, which Imperial Commission shall be paid in the following two (2) installments:
(a) Fifty (50%) percent of the Imperial Commission shall be due and payable upon full execution and deliver of the Imperial Spa lease, occupancy and unconditional acceptance of the leased premises by the tenant, such tenant having received all approvals and permits necessary for such tenant to open and operate at the Premises, and payment of the first month’s rent and any security deposit owing under the lease and satisfaction of all contingencies to the effectiveness of the lease; and
(b) Fifty (50%) percent upon the rent commencement date under the Imperial Spa lease and payment of the monthly installment of rent owing following the rent commencement date.
With respect to the GH Commission and the Imperial Commision, to the extent the applicable premises shall be remeasured pursuant to the applicable lease following the payment of the first 50% of the applicable commission, then the balance of the commission due shall be adjusted based on such remeasurement (if applicable), as follows: (1) to the extent such remeasurement shows an increase to the applicable premises from that used to determine the initial 50% commission payment, the balance of such commission shall be increased by an amount equal to the excess of $2.50 per remeasured square foot of such premises over the initial 50% commission payment made and (2) to the extent such remeasurement shows an decrease to the applicable premises from that used to determine the initial 50% commission payment, the balance of such commission shall be decreased by an amount equal to the excess of the amount of the initial 50% commission payment over $2.50 per remeasured square foot of such premises.
For purposes of calculating any Commission, all additional rent payments such as real estate taxes, common area charges, insurance and promotional charges shall not be included. If a lease provides for “free” or “abated” base rent for any portion of the initial term, the Commission shall be calculated only on the actual rental payments which the tenant is obligated to pay and shall exclude the amount of any “free” or abated base rent in the calculating the Commission.
Where the lease contains a right of cancellation, the Commission shall be paid for the period up to the date on which said lease might be cancelled, but the landlord shall pay the balance of the commission on any further period of the lease after the cancellation right expires.

A separate capital account (each a “Capital Account”) shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv), and this Section 4.1 shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith. Whenever the Company would be permitted to adjust the Capital Accounts of the Members pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) to reflect revaluations of Company Assets, the Company may (and as provided in clause (ii) of the definition of "Gross Asset Value" in Section 1.1, shall) so adjust the Capital Accounts of the Members. In the event that the Capital Accounts of the Members are adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) to reflect revaluations of Company Assets, (i) the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) for allocations of depreciation, depletion, amortization and gain or loss, as computed for book purposes, with respect to such property, and (ii) the Members’ distributive shares of depreciation, depletion, amortization and gain or loss, as computed for tax purposes, with respect to such property shall be determined so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted tax basis and book value of such property in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c). In the event that Code Section 704(c) applies to Company Assets, the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) for allocations of depreciation, depletion, amortization and gain and loss, as computed for book purposes, with respect to such property.
Section 4.2. Allocations.
(a) After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 4.3 through Section 4.6, Profits shall be allocated to the Members as follows:
(i) first, to each of the Class A Members, pro rata relative to their respective Class A Percentages, in an amount equal to the excess of (A) the cumulative amount of the Preferred Return of such Class A Member over (B) the cumulative amount of all prior allocations made to such Class A Member pursuant to this Section 4.2(a)(i);
(ii) second, in the case of gain from the sale or other disposition of the Property, to the Class B Member in an amount equal to the excess of (A) the cumulative amount of Profits Interests Amount(s) over (B) the cumulative amount of Profits previously allocated to the Class B Member pursuant to this Section 4.2(a)(ii) (and the Members acknowledge their intention that the amount
13
of taxable gain to be allocated to the Class B Member by reason of the foregoing allocation of Profits shall be an amount that gives to the Class B Member the entire benefit of the increase(s) to the tax basis of the Property resulting from the election under Section 754 of the Code, described in Section 9.3 hereof, to the extent attributable to prior distributions to the Class B Member, but any depreciation deductions attributable to such tax basis increases resulting from the Section 754 election shall not be allocated to the Class B Member); and
(iii) thereafter, to all of the Class A Members pro rata relative to their respective positive Capital Account balances;
provided, that, anything in this Section 4.2(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, any item of Profits that constitutes gain described in clause (iv) of the definition of “Profits” and “Losses” regarding certain Gross Asset Value adjustments shall be allocated among the Members so as to reflect the manner in which the unrealized income or gain inherent in the subject asset (that has not been reflected in the Capital Accounts previously) would be allocated among the Members if there were a taxable disposition of such asset for its fair market value on the date of the Gross Asset Value adjustment, except as otherwise provided in applicable Treasury Regulations.
(b) After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 4.3 through Section 4.6, Losses shall be allocated to the Members as follows:
(i) first, an amount equal to any Profits allocated to the Class A Members pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(iii) to the Members in proportions necessary to offset the allocations of such Profits; and
(ii) thereafter, to the Class A Members pro rata relative to their respective Class A Percentages.
(c) No Class A Member shall be allocated a Loss that creates or increases a deficit in such Member’s Capital Account as it relates to such Member’s Class A Company Interest. In the event some but not all of the Class A Members would have deficit Capital Accounts as it relates to their Class A Company Interests as a consequence of an allocation of Losses pursuant to this Section 4.2(c), such excess Losses shall be reallocated to the other Class A Members who have positive Capital Account balances as it relates to their Class A Company Interests, pro rata in accordance with their Class A Percentages. Anything in Section 4.2(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Losses are reallocated pursuant to this Section 4.2(c), subsequent Profits shall first be allocated to reverse the effect of the reallocations made pursuant to this Section 4.2(c).
(d) The Profits Interests Amount shall be calculated as of December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011, December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013 and, if an Exit Event occurs prior to July 1, 2013, the last day of the calendar quarter during which such Exit Event occurs. The “Profits Interests Amount” as of the applicable dates shall equal the excess of (i) the relevant annualized NOI of the Company capitalized at a rate of (divided by) 11.8% over (ii) the Project Costs as of such date. The relevant annualized NOI shall mean the NOI of the Company (i) for the December 31, 2010 computation-the Company’s NOI for the fourth calendar quarter of 2010 multiplied by four , (ii) for the December 31, 2011 computation-the Company’s NOI for the fourth calendar quarter of 2011 multiplied by four, (iii) for the December 31, 2012 computation-the Company’s NOI for the fourth calendar quarter of 2012 multiplied by four, (iv) for the June 30, 2013 computation-the Company’s NOI for the second calendar quarter of 2013 multiplied by four and (v) for an Exit Event which occurs prior to July 1, 2013-the Company’s NOI for the calendar quarter during which such Exit Event occurs multiplied by (A) four, in the case of an Exit Event described in clause (i) of the definition thereof (i.e., death or permanent
14
disability) and (B) the number of calendar quarters that elapsed during the calendar year during which such Exit Event occurred up to and including the calendar quarter during which such Exit Event occurred, in the case of any other Exit Event . In no event shall the Profits Interests Amount be less than zero.

For purposes of this Article IV, the term “Member Nonrecourse Debt” has the same meaning as “partner nonrecourse debt” as set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(4) and the term “Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain” has the same meaning as “partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” as set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(2).

If such matter is so submitted to arbitration and the ROI Member has received any cash distribution of the proceeds from the Relevant Property Sale, then the Managing Member shall distribute to the MM Member Group an amount equal to the Interim Section 7.3 Distribution Amount. Such arbitration shall be administered by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) in its New York City offices and the arbitrator shall be a Qualified Arbitrator. The award of the arbitrator shall be binding, final and non-appealable; provided, that the arbitrator shall not have any power to alter, amend or modify or change any of the terms of this Agreement nor to grant any remedy other than the Section 7.3 Payment, if any.

Except as expressly set forth herein, no Member shall have to make any contributions or deliver any letters of credit, guaranties or other property. Except as expressly set forth in Section 3.3(c), nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to make any Member liable for any losses or debts of the Company in excess of such Member’s Capital Contributions already made, or required to be made in accordance with this Agreement, to the Company.
(b) No Affiliate of any Member (including, the Managing Member) shall have personal liability for the obligations of such Member hereunder or otherwise, except as provided herein
22
or under applicable law or in a written agreement, the parties to which include such Affiliate and the Company.

Section 8.2. Expense Reimbursements. The Company shall reimburse the Members (including the Managing Member) and each Authorized Person, from time-to-time, for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred and paid by any of them in the conduct of the Company’s business.

LIST OF APPROVALS
Great Harvest is responsible to obtain all Approvals required for it to open, based on its own applications. To Seller’s knowledge, the following are the Approvals required by Great Harvest to open and the status of each:
1. | CUP for liquor sales -- draft CUP (modified resolution delivered to ROI) has been issued, and Great Harvest is waiting for final sign off from the Planning Commissioner, per Planning Department Manager. City Attorney is still reviewing the draft CUP. One of the conditions of use is for the parking lot to be paved and striped. |
2. | Building permits – The application of Conex (Great Harvest’s general contractor) for the final sign off from the building department has been submitted and is subject to fire department sign-off. In addition, handicap car parking lines need to be painted in front of the store. |
3. | CUP for exterior sign -- City is reviewing Great Harvest’s sign request along with the draft CUP. In the City of Pomona, the maximum size of each letter is 18 inches , but Great Harvest is requesting 3 feet. At this juncture, the two choices are either to obtain a variance (possibly as a part of the CUP) to the Pomona sign criteria or to install 18 inch signs. Albertson’s sign was 48 inches. |
4. | Health Department – Great Harvest’s final application to the Health Department is subject to fire department sign-off. |
5. | Fire Department -- final approval by the Fire Department is subject to Great Harvest adding more fire extinguishers, adding emergency axes and installing new, or fixing existing, sprinkler heads over an oven. This was to be accomplished last week, but Great Harvest is waiting for loan funding to do so. |
Imperial Spa is responsible to obtain all Approvals required for it to open, based on its own applications, which potentially include, to Seller’s knowledge, the following . Note that no applications have yet been submitted for any of these Approvals:
1. | CUP for spa, sauna, exercise and massage |
2. | Zoning ordinance exception for spa, sauna, exercise and massage |
3. | Specific Plan amendment for spa, sauna, exercise and massage |
4. | CUP for signage |
5. | Exterior elevation planning department approval |
6. | Building permits |
7. | Health department approvals |
8. | Fire Department approvals |
Seller has not yet obtained the following Approvals:
1. | Proposed sign program |
2. | Remodel elevation and finishes |

TENANT CLAIMS
1. | Great Harvest loan advances are behind, and Great Harvest claims Seller is at fault. Seller had been requesting loan balancing and proper loan draws with supporting documentation. |
2. | Precise Christian Academy claims that utility prorations may not have been properly allocated and that the 2009 CAM reimbursements should not have been offset by unpaid utility bills. |
3. | Youth World claims that its building needs a new roof and general updating, including possibly HVAC work. |
4. | Liquor Store claims its water bill is too high, and believes that someone else is using its water. |
Schedule "8.1.9(C)-1"
SCHEDULE “8.1.9(C)-2”
SELLER DISCLOSURES
The aged receivables report attached hereto as a part of Schedule “1.5” is dated as of January 19, 2010 and not the date of this Agreement due to a software problem that Seller is experiencing as of the date of this Agreement. Seller is therefore unable to update such aged receivables report. Seller has no knowledge of any material difference between the January 19, 2010 aged receivables report and the payment and arrears status of Tenants as of the date of this Agreement, except that Sahara Café paid $5,000 out of the $6,000 owed.
Great Harvest has a history of submitting loan draws which require line-item balancing, thus delaying payment by Landlord. Great Harvest's opening has been delayed as the result of delayed loan advances.
Imperial Spa is 45 to 60 days behind its zoning approval schedule as called for in its lease. Imperial Spa has requested that it be permitted to pay its first month of rent and security deposit at the end of February (but no approval of such request has been granted by Seller).
New Community Church may continue to dispute, and not pay, the utility pro rations for its shared meter.
