The Parties acknowledge that they have been advised by Brokers to consult their own technical and legal experts with respect to the possible presence of Hazardous Substances on the Property or adjoining properties, and Buyer and Seller are not relying upon any investigation by or statement of Brokers with respect thereto. The Parties hereby assume all responsibility for the impact of such Hazardous Substances upon their respective interests herein. 10.

Disclosures Regarding The Nature of a Real Estate Agency Relationship. 24.1 The Parties and Brokers agree that their relationship(s) shall be governed by the principles set forth in the applicable sections of the California Civil Code, as summarized in Paragraph 24.2. Page 9 of 12 INITIALS WEST\245592673.2 INITIALS 24.2 When entering into a discussion with a real estate agent regarding a real estate transaction, a Buyer or Seller should from the outset understand what type of agency relationship or representation it has with the agent or agents in the transaction. Buyer and Seller acknowledge being advised by the Brokers in this transaction, as follows: (a) Seller's Agent. A Seller's agent under a listing agreement with the Seller acts as the agent for the Seller only. A Seller's agent or subagent has the following affirmative obligations: (1) To the Seller: A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Seller. (2) To the Buyer and the Seller: a. Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent's duties. b. A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. c. A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent attention and observation of, the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above. (b) Buyer's Agent. A selling agent can, with a. Buyer's consent, agree to act as agent for the Buyer only. In these situations, the agent is not the Seller's agent, even if by agreement the agent may receive compensation for services rendered, either in full or in part from the Seller. An agent acting only for a Buyer has the following affirmative obligations. (1) To the Buyer: A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Buyer. (2) To the Buyer and the Seller: a. Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent's duties. b. A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. c. A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent attention and observation of the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above. (c) Agent Representing Both Seller and Buyer. A real estate agent, either acting directly or through one or more associate licenses, can legally be the agent of both the Seller and the Buyer in a transaction, but only with the knowledge and consent of both the Seller and the Buyer. (1) In a dual agency situation, the agent has the following affirmative obligations to both the Seller and the Buyer: a. A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity honesty and loyalty in the dealings with either Seller or the Buyer. b. Other duties to the Seller and the Buyer as stated above in their respective sections (a) or (b) of this paragraph 24.2. (2) In representing both Seller and Buyer, the agent may not without the express permission of the respective Party, disclose to the other Party that the Seller will accept a price less than the listing price or that the Buyer will pay a price greater the price offered. (3) The above duties of the agent in a real estate transaction do not relieve a Seller or Buyer from the responsibility to protect their own interests. Buyer and Seller should carefully read all agreements to assure that they adequately express their understanding of the transaction. A real estate agent is a person qualified to advise about real estate. If legal or tax advice is desired, consult a competent professional. (d) Further Disclosures. Throughout this transaction Buyer and Seller may receive more than one disclosure, depending upon the number of agents assisting in the transaction. Buyer and Seller should each read its contents each time it is presented, considering the relationship between them and the real estate agent in this transaction and that disclosure. Brokers have no responsibility with respect to any default or breach hereof by either Party. The liability (including court costs and attorneys' fees) of any Broker with respect to any breach of duty, error or omission relating to this Agreement shall not exceed the fee received by such Broker pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation on each Broker's liability shall not be applicable to any gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Broker. 24.3 Confidential Information: Buyer and Seller agree to identify to Brokers as "Confidential" any communication or information given Brokers that is considered by such Party to be confidential. 25. Construction of Agreement. In construing this Agreement, all headings and titles are for the convenience of the parties only and shall not be considered a part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context, the singular shall include the plural and vice versa. Unless otherwise specifically indicated to the contrary, the word "days" as used in this Agreement shall mean and refer to calendar days. This Agreement shall not be construed as if prepared by one of the parties, but rather according to its fair meaning as a whole, as if both parties had prepared it. 26. Additional Provisions: Additional provisions of this offer, if any, are as follows or are attached hereto by an Addendum Page 10 of 12 INITIALS WEST\245592673.2 INITIALS ATTENTION: NO REPRESENTATION OR RECOMMENDATION IS MADE BY THE AIR COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE ASSOCIATION OR BY ANY BROKER AS TO THE LEGAL SUFFICIENCY, LEGAL EFFECT, OR TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTION TO WHICH IT RELATES.

Furthermore, paragraph references used in this Addendum correspond to the paragraphs set forth in the Agreement. 2_1 The fee parcels that comprise the Property consist of 8.29 acres. Buyer and Seller have agreed that, concurrent with the Closing of the purchase of the Property by Buyer, Buyer shall dedicate an additional 6,198 sq. ft. of the Property in two strips (the "Street Dedication") to Seller for the Atlantic Blvd. Bridge over the Los Angeles River Project and the District Blvd. widening project as depicted on that certain ALTA/ACSM Land Title Survey dated February 4, 2011 prepared for Seller by Mollenhauer Group and that the City shall accept such Street Dedication. The Purchase Price is reflective of this reduction in square footage of the Property. The "net" area of the Property that will be retained by Buyer after the Closing and the Street Dedication consists of 8.29 acres and results in the Purchase Price of $7,992,436. Buyer, at no cost to Buyer other than its own legal and surveyors fees, and Seller will execute such additional documents or instruments as are necessary or appropriate and mutually agreed upon as to substance, to accomplish the Street Dedication by Buyer and its acceptance by Seller concurrently with the Closing, including, without limitation, grant deeds for those portions of the Property being dedicated to the City (the "Street Dedication Documents"). 2_3 Buyer hereby acknowledges that a portion of the fence providing security for the Property is currently leased by Seller.

Buyer further acknowledges that Seller intends to terminate the lease in connection with the Closing and that the fence will be removed from the Property unless Buyer arranges with the lessor to take over the lease. The Property also includes, at no additional cost to Buyer, all aggregate, road base and fill dirt currently located on the Property, all intangible personal property related to or arising out of the ownership of the Property, including, without limitation, all development entitlements and similar rights of use or development, if any, and all easements, rights of way and other appurtenances to the Property, together with any right, title and interest of Seller in and to adjacent streets, alleys or rights of way.

Seller will execute such additional documents or instruments as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to convey any aspect of the Property, including, without limitation, a bill of sale for any items deemed to be personal property. 8.10 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer's only obligations hereunder will be with respect to items related to the Property generally, and not to Buyer or Buyer's businesses specifically. All documents to be so delivered shall be without representation or warranty. 9_1 All periods of time referred to in this Agreement are calculated by excluding the first day and including the last day and shall include all Saturdays, Sundays and holidays (national, State of California and local), except when it is the last day of a given period, in which event it shall be excluded. 9.1(c) a. Seller has disclosed to Buyer that certain Hazardous Substances are known to have been used previously at the Property and that additional environmental remediation of the Property will be required. The California Department of Toxic Substances Control ("DTSC") has asserted jurisdiction as lead regulatory agency and is overseeing the required remediation. Seller has agreed to conduct such further investigations as necessary with respect to such environmental remediation and has agreed that, if Buyer acquires the Property, Seller will complete any additional environmental remediation required at the Property under applicable Federal, state or WEST\245592754.4 local law at its expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereby agree to the following for matters relating to the Service Oil Property (as defined below): b. Property Remediation Regarding Service Oil M The owner ("Adjacent Owner") of the property at 5122 Atlantic Boulevard, commonly known as the Service Oil property (the "Service Oil Property"), which is adjacent to the Property but across Atlantic Boulevard from the Property, has been remediating certain petroleum -related Hazardous Substances (the "Service Oil Hazardous Substances") at, on, under and near the Service Oil Property pursuant to a local oversight voluntary cleanup order agreement between Adjacent Owner and the City of Vernon Environmental Health Department ("CVEHD"), dated June 7, 2007 (the "Cleanup Order") (attached hereto as Exhibit B), ffi Certain Service Oil Hazardous Substances have migrated or are believed to have migrated onto the Property from the Service Oil Property (the "On Property Service Oil Hazardous Substances"). As of the date hereof, Seller has informed Buyer that it currently believes it likely that the On Property Service Oil Hazardous Substances may be remediated via locations off of the Property. Seller agrees that at Closing the amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) (the "Holdback Amount") shall be withheld from the Purchase Price by Escrow Holder pursuant to the Holdback Escrow Instructions attached hereto as Exhibit C ("Holdback Escrow Instructions") and that, pursuant to the Holdback Escrow Instructions, the Holdback Amount shall be used only for actual out of pocket costs and expenses invoiced to Seller in the event that Seller, or its successors or assigns, becomes obligated to remediate the On Property Service Oil Hazardous Substances (the "On Property Service Oil Remediation") pursuant to this subparagraph, which costs and expenses shall be limited to third party consultants' fees, and costs and expenses arising from or related to remediation, investigation, mitigation, monitoring, maintenance, operation, testing and inspections, laboratory analyses, and the preparation of reports, arising from, the On Property Service Oil Remediation all as more particularly described in the Holdback Escrow Instructions (the "On Property Service Oil Remediation Costs"). In the event that at any time prior to the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing, either Adjacent Owner or Adjacent Owner's transferee or assignee fails to diligently proceed with the On Property Service Oil Remediation or any other remediation of Service Oil Hazardous Substances required by applicable law in a manner consistent with Applicable Law, Seller shall conduct the On Property Service Oil Remediation in accordance with the terms of this subparagraph, the Cleanup Order and all applicable laws, regulations and rules. Seller's obligation to conduct any On Property Service Oil Remediation work shall expire upon the earliest to occur of: (i) the issuance of the Service Oil NFA (as defined hereafter), (ii) the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing (assuming Seller's obligation to commence such work has not theretofore commenced) or (iii) the Holdback Amount has been .expended ("Service Oil Remediation Expiration"). "Service Oil NFA" shall mean collectively, one or more letters of "no further action" ("NFA"), or other written confirmation that no further action will be required with respect to the subject Property, issued by either the CVEHD or the DTSC as applicable, indicating that the On Property Service Oil Remediation has been conducted and completed in accordance with all applicable requirements of the CVEHD and/or DTSC. The Service Oil NFA may contain deed restrictions or conditions such as use restrictions and/or engineering, maintenance, monitoring, recordkeeping or reporting requirements with respect to the Service Oil Property. Upon the occurrence of the Service Oil Remediation Expiration, Seller shall have no further responsibility for Service Oil Hazardous Substances. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Seller, or its successors or assigns, be responsible for any On Property Service Oil Remediation Costs (or any costs or expenses arising from other remediation of Service Oil Hazardous Substances required by applicable law) in an amount greater than the Holdback Amount, which amount is withheld by Escrow Holder, as described above. By this agreement, Buyer assumes no obligation for remediation of any Service Oil Hazardous Substances not on the Property. iii At the Closing, the parties shall execute the Holdback Escrow Instructions in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C and made a part hereof. iv Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement or this Addendum to the contrary, this subparagraph (b) shall survive the Closing until the Service Oil Remediation Expiration. In the event that upon the Service Oil Remediation Expiration there is a remaining, balance of the Holdback Amount then held by Escrow Holder, the remaining balance shalt be remitted back to Seller.

Buyer shall be obligated to accept the Soil NFA if it is either (x) without condition (excluding minor cap maintenance, such as landscaping or pavement patching, or recordkeeping, inspection or reporting requirements), or (y) conditioned solely upon a covenant to install and maintain a vapor barrier under the to be constructed building pad (excluding minor cap maintenance, such as landscaping or pavement patching, or recordkeeping, inspection or reporting requirements). Completion of the Property Remediation Work and issuance of the Soil NFA are conditions to Closing. iii Seller shall use good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause the completion of the Property Remediation Work and issuance of the Soil NFA by July 1, 2014.

This Remedial Action flan is submitted in response to City of Vernon email correspondence dated May 9, 2012 (copy attached in Appendix A). The purpose of conducting additional onsite remedial action is to satisfy remaining regulatory closure requirements at the subject property. More specifically, the property has been subjected to numerous environmental investigations and remedial actions since 1997 (see Appendix B). In August 2011, Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments were conducted at the property by Hazard Management Consulting (HMC) on behalf of a prospective purchaser (see Appendix B). Soil and soil gas testing in the HMC investigation report confirmed the presence of residual, elevated concentrations of shallow metals contaminated soil under the southeastern portion of the site and residual, elevated concentrations of tetrachloroethene (aka perchloroethene aka PCE) and trichloroethene (aka TCE) degreasing solvents under the south-central portion of the site. That -is, hazardous concentrations of barium, lead, and nickel were measured in soil boring SB3 at a depth of five feet (see Figures 2, 5 and 8). Maximum soil gas concentrations of PCE and TCE were measured at 180 and 210 ppbillion at locations S016 and SG19, respectively (see Figures 2, 6 and 7). A supplemental Phase II Subsurface investigation was conducted by HMC in October, 2011 (see Appendix D). Testing results from the Supplemental HMC investigation confirmed that a) the lateraland vertical extent of metals contaminated soil was very limited in close proximity to sample location SB3 (see Figures 5 and 8), and b) the source of elevated, residual PCE and TCE concentrations in proximity to boring locations SG16 and SG19 was a fine grained silt/clay layer encountered at a depth of about 30 feet below surface which had entrapped historic releases of solvents. HMC also determined this 30 feet deep clay layer can act as an ephemeral, aquiclude capturing transient groundwater in especially wet seasons. Attached tables, maps, and reports document all testing results compiled in 2011 by HMC. In November 2011, a Human Health Risk Assessment (HHRA) was conducted by Environmental Health Decisions (EHD) on behalf of the City of Vernon Health Dept (see Appendix E). The purpose of the HHRA was to determine if contaminant concentrations measured in 2011 by HMC presented unacceptable health risks relevant to future development/use. Results of the HHRA are included in Appendix E and are summarized below: 1. Elevated concentrations of metals (especially Iead) present an unacceptable health risk that requires mitigation (i.e. excavation and offsite disposal) prior to site development. 2. Elevated concentrations of volatile organic compounds especially (PCE and TCE) present an unacceptable health risk to potential, future, residential occupants and/or indoor commercial workers without implementing additional remedial or mitigation measures. Acceptable remedial City of Vernon 5119-5309 District Elvd. Vernon, CA 90058 May 17, 2012 Page 2 actions to successfully mitigate health risk concerns include, a) construction of a vapor intrusion barrier under a new structure proposed in the south-central portion of the property, or b) removal/reduction of PCE and TCE contaminants in proximity to boring locations SG16 and SGl9. Upon review of the HHRA conclusions and available remedial actions, the City of Vernon (owner) conducted discussions with a prospective purchaser/developer of the subject property concerning acceptable remedial' actions. A consensus was reached to implement the following remedial actions: 1. Excavation and offsite disposal of metals contaminated soil -in proximity to boring location SB3; and 2. Treatment of elevated volatile contaminant concentrations in proximity to boring locations SG 16 and SG 19 by soil vapor extraction. GEOLOGY AND IIYDROGLCLOGY Previous and recent coring activities as deep as 60 feet at the referenced property revealed that to an approximate depth of sixty (60) feet below surface, soil consists of gray to .brown, fine grained sand, silt and play. Significant layers of dark gray to brown clay were encountered at depths of 30 to 40 feet in all historic borings. Most importantly, clay, lithology at 30 to 40 feet appears to have prevented deeper vertical migration of petroleum and volatile contaminants. The Iithology is consistent with alluvial deposition within the Los Angeles Flood Plain. The elevation of the site is approximately 150 feet above sea level and the surrounding topography slopes to the southeast toward the nearby Los Angeles River (see Figure 1: Topographic' Map). The groundwater contour Inap published by the Los Angeles County Department Public Works (LACDPW) indicates that the regional groundwater gradient is westerly (see Figure 3). According to Figure 3, the depth to the first principal groundwater aquifer under the site is about 150 feet below surface (sea level), Groundwater was not encountered during historic coring operations, which reached a maximum depth of sixty (60) feet below surface. An ephemeral, perched occurrence of groundwater was encountered in 2011 by HMC at a depth of 30 to 34 feet, probably in response to a relatively wet (rainy) season in 2010 and subsequent increased percolation. REIIILDINL NCTION I'Le1.N PIC proposes the following remedial actions to mitigate health risk concerns at the subject property. Metals Contaminated Soil: PIC proposes excavation and offsite disposal of metals contaminated soil in proximity to boring location SB3 (see Figures 2, 5 and 8), Concentrations of bariun7, lead, and nickel exceed California statutes regarding hazardous waste, but may qualify as a Non-RCRA waste (federally nonhazardous waste). As a result, PIC anticipates disposal at either a California Class I landfill or an out - of --state landfill depending on profile testing for soluble (leachable) metal fractions. Because the lateral and vertical extent of metals contaminated soil is known to be limited, PIC anticipates excavation can be successfully achieved with a conventional'backhoe. PIC proposes temporary stockpiling of excavated soil on plastic sheeting. Termination of soil excavation will be based on confirmation testing results from the bottom and possibly walls of the excavated area as directed by an onsite Vernon Health Department E3529. t7 PIC ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES City of Vernon May 17, 2012 5119-5309 District Blvd. Page 3 Vernon, CA 90058 inspector. That is, confirmation soil samples will be recovered from the excavated pit as directed by the Vernon Health Department Inspector. Recovered samples will be analyzed for Total Metals via EPA Method 6010 at a State Certified Laboratory according to standard chain of custody procedures. PIC anticipates the dimensions of the excavation area will not exceed 10'x10'x10' deep. If true, the maximum volume of excavated soil will be 1000 cubic feet=37 cubic yards=52+/- tons. Upon successful completion of excavation operations, PIC rccomrmends backfiil and compaction of the excavated pit with noncontaminated fill material. Stockpiled, contaminated soil will be loaded into State -Certified Hazardous Waste transport vehicles and conveyed to an approved disposal facility according to manifest protocol. PIC will prepare a final report signed by a California Professional Geologist documenting all field operations, testing results, and soil disposal procedures. Volatile Organic Compounds Contaminated Soil: PIC proposes to conduct vapor extraction operations from three onsite recovery wells. Locations of proposed vapor extraction wells are illustrated on Figure 2. Wells will be located at boring locations SG16, SG19, and at an eastern area protective of potential future residential occupants. Each vapor extraction well will be drilled by means of a hollow -stem auger drilling rig to a maximum depth of 35 feet. Each well will be completed below a depth of twenty feet due to clay lithology and elevated contaminant concentrations below that depth. Each well will be completed with two inch diameter PVC casing from total depth to surface. Slotted casing will extend from total depth to about 20 feet below surface. Blank casing above a depth of 20 feet will extend to surface..Amnular fill includes Moutery #3 sand across the slotted interval capped with a bentonite seal and cement at surface. Figure 11 provides a proposed well completion diagram. Blank PVC casing will be constructed above ground from each recovery well to an outdoor treatment enclosure located near a power pole adjacent to 52"d Avenue. Valves will be constructed to evacuate vapors selectively from each well or jointly from multiple wells, as desired. All vapors evacuated from the three recovery wells will be conveyed to the outside treatment enclosure. Vapor extraction.equipm,ent will be. electronically powered by accessing temporary power from a City of Vernon power pole along 52"a Avenue. Activated carbon will be used to treat (entrap) PCE and TCE contaminants in the vapor stream. Treated vapors will be vented to the atmosphere according to South Coast Air Quality Control Management District (SCAQMD) permit requirements. Available equipment will be capable of evacuating up to two hundred (200) cubic feet per minute. Equipment operation is anticipated to be twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven days pdr week. Automatic controls will shut down operation if breakthrough of PCE or TCE contaminants occurs. The radius of influence, during vapor extraction operations, is expected to be detectable in idle extraction wells using Dwyer Magnehelic gauges. PIC will verify successful pressure drawdowns in idle wells on a regular basis. PIC proposes to recover and analyze influent vapor samples for PCE and TCE contaminant concentrations from each recovery well on a regular basis. More specifically, PIC proposes weekly influent testing during the first month of operation and twice monthly testing thereafter. Vapor samples will be entrapped in Tedlar bags from, a vapor sampling port prior to carbon treatment. Samples will be analyzed by EPA Method 8260B. E3529.17 PIC ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES City of Vernon May 17, 2012 5119-5309 District Blvd. Page 4 Vernon, CA 90058 Analysis of effluent vapors for PCE and TCE contaminants will be conducted according to SCAQMD permit requirements. Vapor extraction operations will be conducted for a minimum of six months. Treatment operations will be suspended Once asymptotic (static) PCE; and TCE concentrations have been established in analyzed vapor samples. PIC proposes a one week shutdown period prior to conducting a two week rebound treatment. period. Weekly vapor testing will be conducted during the rebound period. Monthly reports documenting vapor extraction equipment operation, vapor testing results, etc will be submitted to Vernon Health Department and SCAQMD. Completion of vapor extraction treatment operations will be initially determined by establishing asymptotic vapor concentrations for volatile contaminants (PCE and TCE). Verification of successful completion of vapor extraction treatment will be determined by performance of a post-remediation soil gas survey and consequent human health risk assessment. PIC antiopates installation of ten soil gas probe locations within the south-central portion of the property from which soil gas samples will be recovered and analyzed for volatile contaminants employing procedures and protocols comparable to the 2011 HMC investigations. Soil gas testing results will be used by a certfifed toxicologist to calculate a human health risk assessment in a manner comparable to the November 2011 HHRA. The relative success of vapor extraction treatment operations will be determined by comparing 2011 soil gas tetsing results with post- remediation soil gas results. In addition, the post-remediation soil gas testing results coupled with HHRA calculations will determine if construction of a sub -slab vapor intrusion barrier under future structure(s) remains necessary to mitigate potential health risk concerns. PIC will submit a Final Remedial Action Report to document all field operations, testing results, conclusions and recommendations. Vapor extraction wells will be drilled, completed and abandonded according to City and County permit requrements. All proposed operations will be conducted under the supervision of California Professional Geologist, J. Tire Hersch. PIC will notify Vernon Health. Department staff during well construction and initiation of treatment operations. Please advise concerning the acceptability of this Remedial Action Plan.

Total $24,569.00 EXHIBIT E INDEMNITY AGREEMENT THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT (this "Indemnity") is made and entered into as of the _ day of , 2014, by and between the CITY OF VERNON, a municipal corporation ("Seller") and PACIFIC INDUSTRIAL, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, its successors and assigns ("Buyer"). RECITALS A. Seller and Buyer are parties to that certain Standard Offer, Agreement and Escrow Instructions for Purchase of Real Estate dated for reference purposes only March _, 2014, as amended from time to time (the "PSA"). Pursuant to the PSA, Seller has offered to sell, and Buyer has offered to purchase, real property commonly known as 5119, 5201, and 5241 District Boulevard and 4601 East 52nd Drive, Vernon, California (collectively, the "Property"). B. Seller has completed certain remediation work on the Property as set forth in the PIC Environmental Services work plan (the "Work Plan") dated May 17, 2012 (referred to in the PSA as the "Property Remediation Work"). Prior to the date fee title to the Property was transferred to Buyer (the "Closing"), Seller has performed the Property Remediation Work and has obtained the Soil NFA (as that term is defined in the PSA). On and after the Closing Seller shall have no further obligations with respect to the soils on, in or under the Property. provided that the Soil NFA did not include any post closure obligations or monitoring requirements which post -closing obligations and/or monitoring requirements shall be the obligation of Seller at its sole cost and expense. It is understood that Buyer will agree to recording a deed restriction limiting future use to commercial and industrial uses and such recording will not be considered a post -closing obligation. C. Prior investigations have identified ground water problems on the Property, from both historic site operations and resulting from a release at the adjacent Service Oil Property (as defined in the Work Plan). D. The California Department of Toxic Substances Control ("DTSC") has asserted jurisdiction over the Property and all remedial activities on the Property with respect to both soils and ground water; as of the Closing DTSC has directed the Seller to further investigate groundwater and has created an Operable Unit (OU3) that may include further obligations with respect to the groundwater. E. As of the Closing, Seller has obtained a Scheduled Location Pollution Liability Policy (the "Environmental Insurance Policy") insuring Seller as the named insured and Buyer as an additional insured.

Whitworth, City Administrator - (' RE: Standard Offer, Agreement and Escrow Instructions for Purchase of Real Estate by and between the City of Vernon and Pacific Industrial, LLC and Related Addendum for property located at 5119, 5201, 5241 District Boulevard and 4601 East 52nd Drive and Termination of Existing related agreements with Bel Air Atlantic, LLC. Recommendations It is recommended that the City Council: 1. Find that approval of the Amendment proposed in this staff report is not a "project" under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because the sale of the property does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment. It is further recommended that the Council find that even if it were subject to CEQA, the action is exempt from under 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment because (a) the city will conduct a thorough CEQA review before any entitlements are issued for the property, if any; (b) it is speculative the scope of any development that may occur after the property is sold, and (c) the city is solely transferring ownership of property and not approving the development of the property. 2. Approve a resolution that grants approval to (a) terminate the purchase and sale agreement with Bel Air Atlantic, LLC, originally approved via Resolution No. 2012-223 on November 20, 2012; and (b) approve the Standard Offer, Agreement and Escrow Instructions, and the related addendum for Purchase of Real Estate for the property located at 5119, 5201 and 5241 District Boulevard and 4601 East 52nd Drive with Pacific Industrial, LLC. Background On November 20, 2012 the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2012-223 approving the twenty-fifth Amendment to the. Agreement for the sale of approximately 8.29 acres of unimproved City property located at 5119, 5201 and 5241 District Blvd and 4601 East 52na Drive (Thermador Property) to Bel Air Atlantic, Inc. for $8,043,524.00. Since the time of Council's approval, the City has undertaken ongoing soil remediation and testing which is anticipated to be completed in the next few months. Bel Air Atlantic, LLC, has requested to terminate the purchase and sales agreement with the City and substitute Pacific Industrial, LLC, the developer, as the new buyer. The previous terms of the agreement remain with the exceptions below. Listed below is a summary of the requested changes: 1) Buyer 25th Amendment Agreement — The approved Purchase and Sales agreement was between the Bel Air Atlantic, the owner of Bon Appetit, and the City of Vernon. Proposed Agreement — The new agreement would be directly with Pacific Industrial, LLC, the developer for Bon Appetit. 2) Property & Purchase Price 25th Amendment Agreement — The Purchase Price in Section 2 was $8,043,524.00. Proposed Agreement. The Purchase Price as defined in Section 2.1 of the Purchase Agreement would be revised to $7,992,436.00 to reflect the following adjustments: 25th Amendment Purchase Price $8,043,524.00 1) Deduct buyer's broker fee of 2.5% directly from price. (201,088.00) 2) Increase price for estimated additional remediation costs. 150,000.00 Purchase Price: $7,992,436.00 The previous purchase price of $8,043,524 required the City to pay the buyer's broker fee of 2.5% therefore, this request does not decrease the net sales price. However, the $150,000 price increase for would assist in offsetting current remediation related costs. 3) Groundwater The City will provide the buyer an indemnity against certain groundwater matters as described in Schedule F of the agreement. As required by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) the City will test and monitor the groundwater until a "no futher action" (NFA) letter is issued. To mitigated financial risk staff recommended and received approval from the City Council at its April 1, 2014 meeting to purchase a pollution liability insurance coverage for the property. Fiscal Impact Funds from the sale of the property would be used to pay off an existing loan with East West Bank and offset costs associated the with soil and groundwater remediation of the site.
