ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On August 31, 2001, DCH Technology, Inc. ("DCH") entered into a Purchase
and Sale Agreement (the "Agreement") for the sale by DCH to Rediger Investment
Corporation ("Rediger"), of the real property owned by DCH and located at 24832
Avenue Rockefeller, Santa Clarita, California (the "Property"). The Property was
encumbered by a loan in the amount of $730,000 from CalFed Bank ("Loan"), and
additionally secured by a Certificate of Deposit in the amount of $700,000. Upon
consummation of the sale of the Property pursuant to the Agreement ("Closing"),
Cal Fed Bank has returned to DCH the sum of $700,000, which represents the
Certificate of Deposit referenced above, less a prepayment penalty in the amount
of three percent (3%) of the Loan. The Closing occurred on September 24, 2001.
Subsequent to the Closing, DCH has entered into a lease, effective
September 24, 2001, by and between DCH and Rediger, whereby DCH has leased the
Property back from Rediger ("Lease") for a term of ten years, under a triple net
lease at a rate of $.617 per square foot, which amount includes a credit to DCH
in the amount of $.08 per square foot per month. The purchase price for the
property under the Agreement was $1,420,000, of which $1,256,000 was payable in

payments to Rediger under the Lease.
