Exhibit 10.12
PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made effective August 7, 2006 (the “Effective Date”) by and between MAUI LAND & PINEAPPLE COMPANY, INC., a Hawaii corporation, whose address is 120 Kane St., Kahului, Hawaii 96732 (“Seller”) and DUNCAN MACNAUGHTON, whose address is 1001 Bishop Street, Suite 1050,
Honolulu, HI 96813 (hereinafter referred to as “Buyer”).
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, Seller and Buyer agree as follows:
1. Property. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller agrees to sell to Buyer and Buyer agrees to buy from Seller the real properties identified as the southern portion of Tax Map Key No. (2) 2-3-7:1, consisting of approximately 89.203 acres, more or less, including access to and from Lower Kula Road, located in Kula, Maui, Hawaii, as shown in Exhibit A, together with all of Seller’s interest in any other appurtenant rights, privileges, easements, licenses, permits, or rights of way appurtenant to such real property (“Property”).
The Buyer and Seller understand and agree that the Seller received in February 2006 a separate lot determination from the County of Maui, recognizing seven (7) lots within the existing Tax Map Key No. (2) 2-3-7:1, which includes the Property. However, the lot configuration established by the County does not follow the original Land Grant boundaries (which the Property is based upon) and therefore a consolidation and resubdivision of a portion of said tax map parcel is required in order to establish the Property as a separate parcel as shown on Exhibit A.
In accordance with Maui County Code Section 18.04.020(B) it is expressly agreed that the sale of the Property pursuant to this Agreement shall not close unless and until final subdivision approval is granted for the consolidation and resubdivision described herein.
2. Purchase Price. The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Property shall be THREE MILLION SIX HUNDRED FORTY-TWO THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED FIFTY AND NO/100 UNITED STATES DOLLARS (US $3,642,350.00).
3. Payment of Purchase Price. Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price as follows:
a. Upon full execution of this Agreement, Buyer shall make a cash deposit of FIFTY THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS (US $50,000.00) with Escrow (defined below).

b. The deposit required under paragraphs 3(a) shall be held in Escrow in an interest-bearing account and at Closing shall be applied to the Purchase Price. Upon the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, these deposits shall become non-refundable, unless Seller is in default. Accordingly, Buyer hereby irrevocably instructs Escrow that, if the Due Diligence Period expires and Buyer has not exercised its Due Diligence right to cancel, then if Buyer fails to close in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for any reason (other than a material breach of this Agreement by Seller), Escrow shall, upon written demand from Seller, and without any requirement for further authorization or approval from Buyer, disburse Buyer’s deposit to Seller. Seller and Buyer acknowledge that this forfeiture of the deposits is intended and understood to be compensation for the losses that Seller will incur if Buyer fails to close, including without limitation lost opportunities to market the Property, and not as a penalty, and further that the sum to be forfeited is a reasonable estimate of the damages Seller will suffer if Buyer defaults.
c. Buyer shall pay the balance of the Purchase Price in cash at Closing.
d. Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement are not contingent on or subject to mortgage financing.
4. Due Diligence.
a. Due Diligence Period. From the date of execution of this Agreement until 5:00 p.m. (HST) on the 60th day following the Effective Date (the “Due Diligence Period”), Buyer, at Buyer’s expense, may review, survey and investigate (a) the physical and environmental condition of the Property, (b) the character, quality, and general utility of the Property, (c) the zoning, land use, environmental and building requirements and restrictions applicable to the Property, (d) the state of title to the Property, and (e) any and all other documents and matters Buyer feels are necessary to evaluate the Property and determine its acceptability to Buyer (“Due Diligence”). The Seller shall make available to Buyer, for Buyer’s review and use, copies of all maps, surveys, appraisals, reports or other investigative studies conducted by Seller regarding the Property. Such information shall include, but not be limited to, future anticipated farming activities upon the Property and adjacent properties owned by the Seller, water supplies, reservoirs and waterlines located on the Property and maintenance and repair of such facilities, existing and future agreements with third parties regarding the use and maintenance of the water supplies and facilities, anticipated easements for access and utilities, available precipitation reports, any existing leases issued to third parties for the use of the Property, and a history of the farming of the Property and occupancy of the residential improvements located thereon. Seller shall permit Buyer to inspect and, at Buyer’s expense, copy the files provided by Seller pursuant to this section (excluding any confidential or privileged materials).
2
b. Title Report. No later than fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, Seller shall secure a current title report regarding the Property (the “Title Report”) from Escrow, and provide a copy of it to Buyer. No later than five (5) days following Seller’s delivery of the Title Report and copies of documents listed in the Title Report to Buyer, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of any liens, restrictions or other encumbrances shown on the Title Report that are objectionable. No later than ten (10) days following Buyer’s delivery of such notification to Seller, Seller shall notify Buyer whether Seller agrees to remove any such objectionable encumbrance from title prior to Closing. If Seller does not agree to remove an encumbrance and Buyer nevertheless waives the Due Diligence right to cancel this Agreement set forth below and proceeds to close its purchase, Buyer’s objections to that encumbrance shall be deemed waived. All liens, restrictions and other encumbrances shown on the Title Report, excluding any that Seller agrees to remove, shall be called “Permitted Encumbrances”.
c. Allocation of Future Subdivision Rights. Under the existing Agricultural Zoning Ordinance, Maui County Code Section 19.30A.030.G, Tax Map Key No. (2) 2-3-7:1 has the potential to be subdivided into at least thirty-six (36) developable lots. Four (4) potential agricultural lots are intended to be allocated to the Property as follows:
2 lots of 2-acre minimum size
2 lots of 15-acre minimum size
In the event that the total agricultural subdivision potential needs to be adjusted due to unforeseen circumstances, the revised allocation shall be set prior to the end of the Due Diligence period.
d. Waterline and Access Easements. Within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date, the Seller shall make a good faith effort to provide a map to the Buyer which shall identify all existing waterlines, reservoirs and access easements that exist on the Property for the benefit of the Seller, the County of Maui, or any other party, for the Buyer’s review. Provided that Buyer understands that it bears the obligation to conduct his own due diligence investigation of the Property.
e. Due Diligence Cancellation Right. If during the Due Diligence Period, Buyer determines in its sole discretion that the Property is not acceptable for any reason, Buyer shall have the right before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller. Upon such termination by Buyer, this Agreement shall terminate, Buyer’s deposits together with any interest earned thereon, less any incurred escrow fees or expenses, shall be refunded to Buyer, all documents/information about the Property obtained by Buyer shall be delivered forthwith to Seller and the parties hereto shall be released from all further obligations and liabilities hereunder, except that Buyer shall restore any damage done to the Property as a result of its Due Diligence inspections. If Buyer fails to exercise this right to cancel on or
3
before such date and time, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its right to cancel this Agreement. Buyer shall defend, indemnify, and hold Seller harmless against any losses, damages, costs, and expenses including reasonable attorney’s fees, arising from any entry on the Property by Buyer or any of its agents, employees, contractors or representatives to conduct Due Diligence.

Provided, however, that Seller shall have the sole right to extend Closing by up to an additional 120 days, whereby Closing could occur up to 210 days beyond the date of said final subdivision approval.
