The aggregate purchase price is $16,000,000, of which $10,000,000 is to be paid to the Company in cash and $6,000,000 is to be paid via promissory note delivered by the Buyer to the Company and secured by a deed of trust. An amount equal to $500,000 in cash will be deposited by the Buyer in an escrow account within three (3) business days after the execution of the Purchase Agreement as a refundable down payment (the “Deposit”). The closing of the transaction is subject to a due diligence period which expires at the close of business on July 1, 2026 (the “Due Diligence Contingency Period”).
