THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT AND JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS

(“Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between THE DAVID R. WILSON REVOCABLE TRUST DATED JANUARY 26 1994 (“Seller”), and SAN JOAQUIN BANK

(“Buyer”). This Agreement shall be effective as of December 21, 2006 (“Effective Date”), provided Buyer and Seller deliver executed counterparts of this Agreement to one another and to the Escrow Holder, and provided Escrow Holder accepts this Agreement in writing by delivering a copy of its executed signature page to both Buyer and Seller.

     NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual agreements herein set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Seller and Buyer agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
PURCHASE AND SALE

     Seller hereby agrees to sell and convey to Buyer, and Buyer hereby agrees to purchase from Seller, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the following:

     1.1 Land. That certain real property (the “Land”) consisting of a portion of the land included in Lots 3 and 4 of Line Adjustment No. 05-0920, per the Certificate of Compliance recorded as Instrument No. 0206015103 dated December 1, 2005, in the Official Records of the Kern County Recorder’s Office, and substantially as depicted as proposed “Lot 1” in the attached Exhibit A. The Land is located at the northeast corner of Panama Lane and Stine Road, in the City of Bakersfield, County of Kern, State of California, and is approximately 57,000 square feet in size. The actual size of the Land shall be determined prior to the Close of Escrow by a survey (the “Survey”) prepared by a licensed engineer retained by Seller at its own expense.

     1.2 Appurtenances. All rights, privileges and easements, if any, owned by Seller and appurtenant to and for the benefit of the Land (all of which are collectively referred to as the “Appurtenances”).

     1.3 Improvements. All of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all of the existing buildings, structures and other improvements and fixtures, if any, located on the Land at the Closing (as defined in Section 7.2) (the “Improvements”).

     1.4 Intangible Property. Seller’s entire right, title and interest in and to all governmental licenses, permits, certificates, plans and specification, approvals, prepaid fees, transferable development rights and other entitlements and intangible rights relating to the Land, Appurtenances and Improvements (collectively, the “Intangible Property”); provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the sale and conveyance to Buyer shall not include, and Seller shall retain, all rights, title and interest in and to the Intangible Property to the extent the same relate to property of any kind other than the Land, Appurtenances and Improvements (including without limitation, any neighboring or adjacent real property owned by Seller and any personal property and intangible property relating thereto).

All of the items described in Sections 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 which are to be sold and

1

conveyed to Buyer pursuant to this Article I are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Property.” Subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, upon the Close of Escrow (defined in Section 7.2), the Land, Appurtenances and Improvements shall be conveyed to Buyer pursuant to a grant deed in a form which is to be prepared by Seller’s counsel (or at Seller’s request, by the Title Company, as defined in Section 4.1), approved by Seller and also approved by Buyer as part of Buyer’s Inspections in the manner and within the time specified in Section 3.6 (the “Deed”). The Deed shall be sufficient to convey title to Buyer upon the Close of Escrow. In addition, as of the Close of Escrow, Seller shall assign and transfer to Buyer the Intangible Property as described in Section 1.4, pursuant to a separate assignment and assumption agreement in a form which is to be prepared by Seller’s counsel, approved by Seller and also approved by Buyer as part of Buyer’s Inspections in the manner and within the time specified in Section 3.6 (the “Assignment & Assumption Agreement”).

ARTICLE II
PURCHASE PRICE

     2.1 Purchase Price. The purchase price of the Property (the “Purchase Price”) shall be Thirty Dollars ($30.00) per square foot of the Land, as determined by the Survey [an estimated One Million Seven Hundred Ten Thousand Dollars ($1,710,000)].

2.2      Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows: (a) Within one (1) business day after the Opening of Escrow (defined in

Section 7.1), Buyer shall deposit directly into an escrow (the “Escrow”) opened with Ticor Title Company of California, located at 10000 Stockdale Highway, Suite 101, Bakersfield, California 93311, Attention: Ms. Kellie Williams, Escrow Officer (the “Escrow Holder”), the sum of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) in immediately available funds of the United States (the “Deposit”). When received by the Escrow Holder, the Deposit shall be placed in one or more interest bearing FDIC insured accounts. All further references to “Deposit” shall include all accrued interest thereon.

     (b) The Deposit shall be non-refundable to Buyer except if Buyer terminates this Agreement within the time, in the manner and otherwise in compliance with Sections 3.6, 4.2, 4.4, 4.6, 8.3, 10.1 or 11.1.

     (c) Upon the Close of Escrow, the amount of the Deposit shall be credited toward the Purchase Price. At least three (3) days prior to the Scheduled Closing Date, as defined below in Section 7.2, Buyer shall deposit with Escrow Holder the balance of the Purchase Price in immediately available funds of the United States, such that Escrow Holder shall be able to disburse the cash proceeds accruing to Seller on the Close of Escrow.

     (d) The Purchase Price does not include any on or off-site expenses for the Property. Buyer agrees to pay its pro rata share of said expenses relative to the expenses of the overall development of the Property and the Retail Center, as defined in Section 3.4.1. Seller’s obligations to sell the Property to Buyer and Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Property from Seller are conditioned upon the parties execution of a “Development Agreement” which specifies each party’s responsibilities, including but not limited to the financial obligations, with respect to the construction of the required on-site and off-site improvements in connection with development of the Property and the Retail Center. Seller shall deliver a draft Development Agreement to Buyer within twenty (20) days after the Opening of Escrow. The draft

2

Development Agreement proposed by Seller shall be included among the Documents that are subject to Buyer’s review and approval in connection with Buyer’s Inspections pursuant to Section 3.4 and Section 3.6. The parties anticipate that the Development Agreement will, at a minimum, do each of the following: (i) require Seller to deliver a rough graded pad, with stubbed utilities (including water, sewer, gas, electric and phones), stubbed to the site or within a reasonable proximity to the site; (ii) require Buyer to cooperate with Seller in connection with grading at the Retail Center property and comply with Seller’s grading plan; (iii) require Buyer to obtain, prior to commencing any construction work, Seller’s approval of the floor plan, site plan and elevations for the building to be constructed by Buyer on the Property; (iv) require Buyer to comply with Seller’s landscape design with respect to the Retail Center; (v) require Buyer to commence construction of its building within twelve (12) months following the Closing, with a right of repurchase exercisable by Seller (at the same price paid by Buyer to Seller for the Property, and on such other terms as specified in the Development Agreement) if Buyer fails to commence construction within said 12-month period; and (vi) require Buyer to pay the full cost of all site improvements installed by Seller under the Development Agreement (to the extent said improvements are for Buyer’s benefit only, as opposed to the common benefit of the Retail Center – whether installed on the Property or elsewhere within the Retail Center property) and Buyer’s pro rata share of all other on and off site expenses installed under the Development Agreement (which pro rata share is to be calculated based on the gross square footage of the Land included within the Property relative to the gross square footage of all the land within the Retail Center).

2.3 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AS TO THE DEPOSIT. IN THE EVENT THE

SALE OF THE PROPERTY AS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER IS NOT CONSUMMATED BECAUSE OF A DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT ON THE PART OF BUYER, AND SELLER HAS PERFORMED ALL OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT (OTHER THAN ANY OBLIGATIONS THE PERFORMANCE OF WHICH IS NOT YET DUE OR WHICH MAY HAVE BEEN WAIVED OR EXCUSED BY BUYER), BUYER AND SELLER HEREBY AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY SHALL BE RELEASED FROM ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE AGREEMENT, AND BUYER AGREES THAT SELLER IS ENTITLED TO, AND ESCROW HOLDER SHALL UPON NOTICE FROM SELLER DELIVER TO SELLER, THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS SECTION 2.3 (SOMETIMES REFERRED TO HEREIN AS THE “LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION”) SHALL NOT LIMIT SELLER’S RIGHT TO (i) RECEIVE REIMBURSEMENT FOR OR RECOVER DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH BUYER’S INDEMNITY OF SELLER AND/OR BREACH OF BUYER’S OBLIGATIONS PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 3.2, 3.4.2, 3.4.3, 12.2, and 12.16; (ii) RECOVER LITIGATION COSTS PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.9; (iii) OBTAIN INJUNCTIVE RELIEF DUE TO BUYER’S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTIONS 3.2, 3.4.2, 3.4.3, AND 12.16, AND/OR (iv) PURSUE ANY AND ALL REMEDIES AVAILABLE AT LAW OR IN EQUITY IN THE EVENT THAT FOLLOWING ANY TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, BUYER OR ANY PARTY RELATED TO OR AFFILIATED WITH BUYER ASSERT ANY CLAIMS OR RIGHT TO THE PROPERTY THAT WOULD OTHERWISE DELAY OR PREVENT SELLER FROM HAVING CLEAR, INDEFEASIBLE AND MARKETABLE TITLE TO THE PROPERTY. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PAYMENT OF THE DEPOSIT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR

3

PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 3275 OR 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677. BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT AND BY INITIALING BELOW, BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT BUYER HAS FULLY CONSIDERED THE PROVISIONS OF THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION PRIOR TO ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND HAS HAD ADEQUATE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH ITS OWN COUNSEL WITH RESPECT THERETO, AND HEREBY WAIVES, AND RELEASES THE ESCROW HOLDER FROM, ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AND LIABILITIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE (WHETHER IN TORT OR IN CONTRACT) ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE ESCROW HOLDER’S RELEASE OF THE DEPOSIT TO SELLER.

     3.4.2 Proprietary Information. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Documents are proprietary and confidential in nature and have been or will be made available to Buyer solely to assist Buyer in determining the feasibility of purchasing the Property. Buyer covenants that it shall not disclose the Documents or any of the provisions, terms or conditions thereof, nor shall Buyer disclose any of Buyer's Information, to any party outside of Buyer's organization except (i) to Buyer's attorneys, accountants, brokers, agents, investors, lenders, and prospective lenders (collectively, the "Permitted Outside Parties"), or (ii) as may be required by law. Buyer further covenants to notify all Permitted Outside Parties that the Documents and Buyer's Information are to be kept confidential and not disclosed to third parties, except for the Permitted Outside Parties. Buyer hereby covenants to indemnify, defend, protect and hold Seller, the Property and all neighboring property owned by Seller harmless from and against, any and all liens, claims, liability, costs, expenses, damages or fees (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred as a result of or arising in connection with any disclosure of the Documents or Buyer’s Information by Buyer or any of the Permitted Outside Parties to anyone other than the Permitted Outside Parties; provided, however, that Buyer’s covenants in this subsection 3.4.2 shall not apply to any Documents or Buyer’s Information which is or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of a disclosure by Buyer or one of the Permitted Outside Parties to someone who is not one of the Permitted Outside Parties) or which is or becomes known to or obtained by the Buyer other than in the course of Buyer’s Inspections or any discussions, negotiations or other communications between the parties (including between or among their respective employees, agents, attorneys and other affiliates). In permitting Buyer and the Permitted Outside Parties to review the Documents to assist Buyer, Seller has not waived any privilege or claim of confidentiality with respect thereto, and no third party benefits or relationships of any kind, either expressed or implied, have been offered, intended or created by Seller and any such claims are expressly rejected by Seller and waived by Buyer.

     3.4.3 Return of Documents. Buyer shall return to Seller all of the Documents, all notices from Seller pertaining to any proposed change to the Draft Development Documents, and any and all copies of the foregoing made by or in the possession of Buyer, people within Buyer’s organization and the Permitted Outside Parties, together with all of Buyer's Information not previously delivered to Seller, (collectively, “Delivery Items”), within five (5) days following termination of this Agreement or the Escrow for any reason.

     3.4.4 No Representation or Warranty By Seller. Buyer acknowledges that many of the Documents were prepared by third parties other than Seller, and in several instances, were or may have been prepared prior to Seller's ownership of the Property. Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that, (i) neither Seller nor any of its members, managers, partners, agents, attorneys, employees, representatives, affiliates or contractors has made any warranty or representation regarding the truth, accuracy or

7

completeness of the Documents or the source(s) thereof, and Buyer has not relied on the truth or completeness of the Documents, except as expressly stated in Section 8.2(f), and (ii) Seller has not undertaken any independent investigation as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Documents and is providing the Documents or making the Documents available to Buyer solely as an accommodation to Buyer. As used in this Agreement, the “affiliates” of a party or a referenced third-party hereto shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any officers, directors, members, partners, managers, employees, servants, agents, attorneys, representatives, contractors, parent entities, subsidiaries, predecessors, successors and assigns of such party or referenced third-party and any person or entity that controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such party or referenced third-party.

     3.5 Release. Buyer shall rely solely upon Buyer’s own inspection of the Property and the Documents in determining the Property’s physical condition, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. Buyer waives Buyer’s right to recover from Seller and each of the members, managers, partners, agents, attorneys, employees, representatives, and affiliates of the Seller (each, a “Released Party”), any and all damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses whatsoever, and claims therefor, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, or foreseen or unforeseen, which may arise from or be related to (i) the physical condition of the Property; (ii) the Property’s compliance, or lack of compliance with any federal, state or local laws or regulations applicable thereto, and all regulations, rulings, and orders promulgated or adopted pursuant thereto, CERCLA, RCRA, the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. Sections 466 et seq.), the Safe Drinking Water Act (14 U.S.C. Sections 1401-1450), the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act (49 U.S.C. Sections 1801 et seq.), the Toxic Substance Control Act (15 U.S.C. Sections 2601-2629), the California Hazardous Substances Act (Health & Safety Code Sections 25100-25600), the California Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act (Water Code Sections 13000 et seq.), and all regulations, rulings, and orders promulgated or adopted pursuant thereto (collectively, “Environmental Laws”), excepting in all cases those losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses, and claims therefore, arising from or attributable to a material fact known to Seller and not disclosed to Buyer (nor to Buyer’s affiliates) or any breach of an express representation or warranty set forth in Section 8.2 (subject to the limitations specified in Sections 8.3, 11.1, 11.2 or elsewhere in the Agreement). Buyer expressly waives the benefits of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides as follows:

     A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

     In this connection and to the extent permitted by law, Buyer hereby agrees, represents and warrants that Buyer realizes and acknowledges that factual matters now unknown to it may have given or may hereafter give rise to causes of action, claims, demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs, losses and expenses which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and Buyer further agrees, represents and warrants that the waivers and releases herein have been negotiated and agreed upon in light of that realization and that Buyer nevertheless hereby intends to release, discharge and acquit Seller and each other Released Party from any such unknown causes of action, claims, demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs, losses and expenses which might in any way be included as a

8

material portion of the consideration given to Seller by Buyer in exchange for Seller’s performance hereunder.

     Seller and Buyer have each initialed this Section 3.5 to further indicate their awareness and acceptance of each and every provision hereof.

It is expressly agreed that nothing in this Section shall give Buyer any right to disapprove the Property based upon Inspections conducted hereunder, nor otherwise give Buyer any right to terminate this Agreement or the Escrow at anytime after the Approval Date. Buyer hereby agrees to keep the Property, and all neighboring property, free from, and to indemnify, defend, protect and hold Seller, the Property and all such adjacent property harmless from and against, any and all liens, claims, liability, costs, expenses,

damages or fees (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred as a result of or arising in connection with Buyer’s Inspections during the Post-Approval Inspection Period, and to promptly repair any damage to the Property and any neighboring property that results from or arises in connection with Buyer’s Inspections. Buyer shall maintain those areas upon which Buyer’s Inspections under this section are performed in a safe condition at all times with respect to work performed thereon by or on behalf of Buyer during the term of this Agreement.

ARTICLE IV

TITLE; BUYER’S REGULATORY APPROVAL;
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT

     4.1 Title to the Property. Seller’s conveyance of title to the Property shall be subject to the title matters disclosed as exceptions (“Permitted Exceptions”) in a preliminary title report (the “Title Report”) issued by Ticor Title Company of California, located at 10000 Stockdale Highway, Suite 101, Bakersfield, California 93311 (“Title Company”). The term “Permitted Exceptions” as used herein shall mean: (i) liens for real property taxes shown as exceptions in the Title Report, provided that such taxes are not delinquent; (ii) the standard exceptions to coverage under Title Insurer’s current CLTA-Owners Standard Coverage Policy of Title Insurance (or, if Buyer elects, Title Insurer’s current ALTA-Owners Extended Coverage Policy of Title Insurance) (in either case, the “Title Policy”); (iii) exceptions relating to any of the Draft Development Documents that are approved or deemed approved by Buyer, and any proposed changes to Draft Development Documents which do not require Buyer’s approval, under subsections 3.4.1 and 3.4.1.1; and (iv) any other exception disclosed in the Title Report which Buyer does not disapprove in writing, or which is waived or deemed waived, pursuant to Section

4.2	or Section 4.3.
	4.2 Title Approval Procedure. Within ten (10) days after the Opening of Escrow,

Escrow Holder shall provide Buyer and Seller with a copy of the Title Report and legible copies of all underlying documents referenced in the type-written exceptions thereto which are available to the Title Company. On or before thirty (30) days following receipt by Buyer of said Title Report and underlying documents, Buyer shall give Seller written notice (a “Title Report Disapproval Notice”) of any matters disclosed by the Title Report which Buyer disapproves (“Disapproved Exceptions”). Buyer’s failure to disapprove any title exception shall be deemed Buyer’s approval thereof. Seller, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify Buyer in writing (“Seller’s Notice”) within five (5) business days after Seller’s receipt of Buyer’s Title Report Disapproval Notice, that Seller shall agree to remove or cure such disapproved items, and/or, subject to Buyer’s approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), to obtain a bond or title commitment or endorsement insuring that such item will be removed or cured, prior to or at the Closing. If Seller does not, by the expiration of such five (5) business day period, deliver the Seller’s Notice or does not agree in the Seller’s Notice to remove or cure such disapproved items, or to obtain a bond or title commitment or endorsement insuring that such item will be removed, at or prior to the Close of Escrow, then Buyer shall have the right to either (i) waive such exceptions to title, and proceed to take title to the Property subject to such exceptions, without any deduction or offset in the Purchase Price, and without any cause of action against Seller, or (ii) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow, by giving written notice of

10

such termination to Seller and to Title Company at anytime prior to expiration of the Inspection Period. Buyer’s failure to provide Seller and Title Company with such written notice of termination on or before the expiration of the Inspection Period shall constitute Buyer’s election under clause (i), above. In the event this Agreement is terminated under clause (ii) above, then Buyer shall no longer be entitled to purchase the Property; Escrow Holder shall deliver the Deposit to Buyer; the parties shall each pay one-half (1/2) of any cancellation fee charged by Escrow Holder and/or the Title Company; and the parties shall be relieved of any further obligation to each other, except for Buyer’s and Seller’s obligations, if any, under Sections 3.2, 3.4.2, 3.4.3, 3.5, 12.2, 12.9 and 12.16.

     4.3 Subsequent Title Exceptions. Seller agrees that, provided Buyer approves (or is deemed to have approved) Buyer’s Inspections and the condition of title prior to expiration of the Inspection Period as provided above, Seller will not thereafter voluntarily record or permit to be recorded prior to the Close of Escrow any new exceptions to the condition of title to the Property, other than the Permitted Exceptions. The Buyer may, in its sole discretion and at its own cost, obtain one or more updated title reports from the Title Company after expiration of the Inspection Period, in which event Title Company shall concurrently transmit copies of any such updated title report to both Buyer and Seller. If Buyer believes that any such updated title report identifies any new exception to the condition of title to the Property, other than the Permitted Exceptions, Buyer shall so notify Seller and Escrow Holder in writing within five (5) business days after Buyer first receives an updated title report from the Title Company identifying said new exception (“New Exception”). If Seller has voluntarily recorded or permitted to be recorded a New Exception in violation of its obligations under this Section 4.3 and Section 3.4.1.1, then Seller shall remove or cure such New Exception, and/or, subject to Buyer’s approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), obtain a bond or title commitment or endorsement insuring that such item will he removed or cured, prior to or at the Closing, at no cost to Buyer. If Seller has not voluntarily recorded or permitted to be recorded said New Exception in violation of its obligations under this Section 4.3, then Buyer shall have the right to either (i) waive such New Exception to title, and proceed to take title to the Property subject to such New Exception, without any deduction or offset in the Purchase Price, and without any cause of action against Seller, or (ii) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow, by giving written notice of such termination to Seller and to Title Company within ten (10) business days after Buyer first receives an updated title report from the Title Company identifying said New Exception. Buyer’s failure to provide Seller and Title Company with such written notice of termination on or before the above-specified ten (10) business day period shall constitute Buyer’s election under clause (i) above. In the event this Agreement is terminated under clause (ii) above, then Buyer shall no longer be entitled to purchase the Property; Escrow Holder shall deliver the Deposit to Buyer; the parties shall each pay one-half (1/2) of any cancellation fee charged by Escrow Holder and/or the Title Company; and the parties shall be relieved of any further obligation to each other, except for Buyer’s and Seller’s obligations, if any, under Sections 3.2, 3.4.2, 3.4.3, 3.5, 12.2, 12.9 and 12.16. It is expressly acknowledged that nothing in this Section 4.3 or in any other provision of this Agreement shall prevent Seller from executing, recording or causing to be recorded, any Draft Development Documents, including any proposed change thereto, which are approved or deemed app roved by Buyer, or for which Buyer’s approval is not required, under Article III hereof.

     4.4 Entitlement. Prior to execution of this Agreement, Seller has been engaged in the entitlement and potential development of the Property and the overall Retail Center, and activities relating thereto (collectively, “Seller’s Development Activities”). The parties anticipate that, from and after the date of this Agreement, Seller will continue to pursue Seller’s Development Activities, with no approval or consent required from the Buyer in connection with

11

said activities (except as expressly provided in this Agreement), and that said Development Activities will include Seller’s efforts to create the Land as a separate legal parcel (in particular, through a lot line adjustment). All of Seller’s Development Activities shall be at Seller’s own cost and expense. The parties expressly agree that Buyer’s obligation to purchase, and Seller’s obligation to sell, the Property is contingent upon Seller’s obtaining such approvals from the City of Bakersfield (including without limitation approval of Draft Development Documents) and causing recordation of such instruments as necessary to make the Land a separate legal parcel, the boundaries of which are to be substantially as depicted in Exhibit A (the “Lot Line Contingency”); provided that, as part of the Lot Line Contingency, Buyer shall approve the size and configuration of the resulting separate legal parcel (the “Parcel”) as being substantially as depicted in Exhibit A, which approval shall be in writing and shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.4 or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Seller gives no assurance that it will be able to satisfy the Lot Line Contingency by any particular date, or at all; however, Seller agrees to use reasonable commercial efforts to satisfy the Lot Line Contingency by March 1, 2007.

     4.5 Cooperation With Respect to Development Approvals. From and after the expiration of the Inspection Period (provided Buyer approves or is deemed to have approved the Buyer’s Inspections and Documents pursuant to Section 3.6), and until the Close of Escrow or any earlier termination of this Agreement, (i) Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller (at no cost to Buyer) in connection with Seller’s Development Activities, including but not limited to Seller’s efforts to satisfy the Lot Line Contingency, and (ii) Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer (at no cost to Seller) in connection with Buyer’s efforts to obtain entitlements and governmental approvals in connection with its planned future development of the Property.

     4.6 Buyer’s Obtaining Regulatory Approval. Buyer shall have until the Approval Date to obtain any and all regulatory approvals that Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion deems necessary or otherwise appropriate for its operation of a community bank at or from the Property (“Buyer’s Regulatory Approval Contingency”). If Buyer’s Regulatory Approval Contingency is not satisfied, Buyer shall so notify Seller and Escrow Holder in writing by no later than 5:00 P.M. (PST) on the Approval Date, in which event this Agreement shall thereupon be terminated; Buyer shall no longer be entitled to purchase the Property; Escrow Holder shall deliver the Deposit to Buyer; the parties shall each pay one-half (1/2) of any cancellation fee charged by Escrow Holder and/or the Title Company; and the parties shall be relieved of any further obligation to each other, except for Buyer’s and Seller’s obligations, if any, under Sections 3.2, 3.4.2, 3.4.3, 3.5, 12.2, 12.9 and 12.16. If Buyer does not deliver the notice as specified in the preceding sentence, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived Buyer’s Regulatory Approval Contingency for all purposes under this Agreement.

Upon the Opening of Escrow, Escrow Holder is authorized to act in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Escrow Holder’s general provisions (as modified by the Escrow Holder at the parties’ request for the subject transaction), a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit “B”.

7.3	Closing.
	(a) The Closing may occur on such earlier date as Buyer and Seller may

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if either party has complied with the terms and conditions of this Agreement prior to the Scheduled Closing Date and the other party is not in a position to close on such date or has otherwise not performed obligations required of it under the terms of this Agreement when such performance is due, the non-performing party shall be in material breach of this Agreement and there shall be deemed to have occurred a default on the part of such party, and the party who has so fully complied may terminate this Agreement and, whether or not this Agreement is terminated, may exercise all remedies available to it as provided in Section 2.3 for Seller or Article XI for Buyer (subject to the limitations set forth elsewhere in this Agreement).

assessments on the Property for the current year shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of 12:00 a.m. on the Closing Date (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over the applicable period).

In the event that prior to the Closing Date, (a) a governmental entity shall commence any eminent domain proceeding to take a Substantial Portion (as defined below) of the Property or (b) there shall occur a casualty, damaging or destroying a Substantial Portion of the Property, then Seller shall promptly give written notice to Buyer of same, and Buyer, within five (5) days of receipt of written notice from Seller, shall elect to either (i) terminate the Agreement, in which case Buyer shall no longer be entitled to purchase the Property, Escrow Holder shall deliver to Buyer the entire portion of the Deposit then held by Escrow Holder, the parties shall each pay one-half (1/2) of any cancellation fee charged by Escrow Holder and/or Title Company, and the parties shall be relieved of any further obligation to each other, except for Buyer’s and Seller’s obligations, if any, under Sections 3.2, 3.4.2, 3.4.3, 3.5, 12.2, 12.9 and 12.16, or (ii) proceed with the transaction, in which case the Purchase Price shall not be reduced and Buyer shall be entitled upon the Closing Date to receive a credit against the Purchase Price of an amount equal to the entire award paid to Seller for such taking prior to the Close of Escrow, if any, or the entire insurance proceeds received by Seller for such casualty, if any. With respect to any awards or insurance proceeds not paid to Seller prior to the Close of Escrow, if Buyer elects to proceed under clause (ii) above, Seller shall assign and transfer to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any awards or insurance proceeds. Buyer and Seller hereby agree that if Seller assigns and transfers to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any awards or insurance proceeds, Seller shall have no obligation to repair or restore the Property or any portion thereof or to obtain or seek to obtain any such awards or insurance proceeds. Buyer’s failure to notify Seller of its election within the five (5) day time-period specified above shall be deemed an election by Buyer to proceed under clause (ii) above.

     10.2 Non-Substantial Taking or Destruction. In the event that prior to the Closing Date, (i) a governmental entity shall commence any eminent domain proceeding to take less than a Substantial Portion of the Property, or (ii) a casualty loss shall occur with respect to less than a Substantial Portion of the Property, then Seller shall promptly give written notice to Buyer of same, and Buyer shall proceed with the transaction, in which case the Purchase Price shall not be reduced and Buyer shall be entitled upon the Closing Date to receive a credit against the Purchase Price of an amount equal to (a) the entire award or insurance proceeds paid to Seller for such taking or destruction prior to the Close of Escrow, if any, or (b) with respect to any awards or insurance proceeds not paid to Seller prior to the Close of Escrow, Seller shall assign and transfer to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any awards or insurance

proceeds, it being expressly agreed that in such event Seller shall have no obligation to repair or restore the Property or any portion thereof or to obtain or seek to obtain any such awards or insurance proceeds.

     10.3 Substantial Portion. As used herein, the term “Substantial Portion” with respect to condemnation of or casualty loss to the Property shall mean and refer to a condemnation or casualty loss of all or a portion of the Property resulting in a material and adverse affect upon the development of the Property for commercial purposes consistent with the Draft Development Documents.

ARTICLE XI
BUYER’S REMEDIES

     11.1 Buyer's Remedies. In the event Seller fails to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement for any reason (other than a failure on the part of Buyer to satisfy any condition set forth in this Agreement or any failure by Buyer to otherwise perform hereunder), then Buyer shall elect, as its sole remedy, either to: (i) terminate this Agreement by giving Seller timely written notice of such election prior to or upon the Closing Date, provided that upon such termination, Buyer shall no longer be entitled to purchase the Property, Buyer shall be entitled to return of the entire portion of the Deposit then held by Escrow Holder, the parties shall each pay one-half (1/2) of any cancellation fee charged by the Escrow Holder and/or Title Company, and the parties shall be relieved of any further obligation to each other, except for Buyer’s and Seller’s obligations, if any, under Sections 3.2, 3.4.2, 3.4.3, 3.5, 12.2, 12.9 and 12.16; or (ii) enforce specific performance of this Agreement (if and only to the extent permitted by applicable law), in which event there shall be no reduction of the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller fails to perform any of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement prior to the end of the Inspection Period and said obligations were required to be performed within said period of time (such that said failure to perform may constitute a material breach or default of this Agreement on the part of Seller), Buyer shall be deemed to have waived such breach or default by Seller if Buyer has elected to approve Buyer’s Inspections pursuant to Section 3.6. Furthermore, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) hereinabove if Buyer fails to deliver to Seller written notice of its intent to commence action to assert a claim for specific performance against Seller on or before sixty (60) days following the scheduled Closing Date, or having given such notice fails to commence such action asserting said claim within ninety (90) days following the scheduled Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, no notice of termination given by Buyer hereunder shall be of any force or effect if Seller cures the default within five (5) business days after Seller's receipt of any such termination notice. If Buyer duly elects to terminate or is deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) hereinabove, then Buyer shall and hereby agrees in such event to waive any and all right to file or record any lis pendens or any other lien or encumbrance against the Property or to seek specific performance or other equitable relief or to seek or recover from Seller any damages (including, without limitation, any actual direct, indirect, consequential, punitive or other damages). The foregoing remedies set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) hereinabove are Buyer's sole and exclusive remedies with respect to Seller's default, and Buyer waives any and all other remedies as may be available at law or in equity in connection with such Seller's default (subject, however, to Buyer's right to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs pursuant to Section 12.9). Any and all covenants and obligations of Seller contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, any default by Seller of any such obligations and covenants) shall merge into the Deed and other Closing documents upon the Cl osing, and shall not survive the Closing, except to the extent otherwise expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement.

21

     11.2 Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL DAVID WILSON, BRUCE MACLIN OR ANY OF THE DIRECT OR INDIRECT TRUSTEES, BENEFICIARIES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, MANAGERS, AGENTS, PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, OWNERS, REPRESENTATIVES, ATTORNEYS, OR AFFILIATES OF THE PARTIES, OR ANY AFFILIATE OR CONTROLLING PERSON THEREOF, HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM, CAUSE OF ACTION OR OTHER LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROPERTY WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, COMMON LAW, STATUTE, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. THE FOREGOING LIMITATION ON LIABILITY SHALL SURVIVE THE CLOSING OR ANY EARLIER TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND SHALL NOT DIMINISH OR OTHERWISE AFFECT BUYER'S WAIVERS AND RELEASES IN ANY OTHER SECTION OR PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

     12.4 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed both parties hereto.

     12.5 Continuation and Survival of Representations, Warranties and Indemnities. All representations and warranties by the respective parties contained herein are intended to and shall remain true and correct as of the time of Closing, shall be deemed to be material, and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Deed and the transfer of title for a period of one (1) year following the Close of Escrow, at which point all such representations and warranties shall expire. All indemnities by the respective parties contained herein are intended to and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Deed and the transfer of title.

Unless expressly specified herein, any reference to "days" shall mean calendar days. To the extent the last day for any act falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the last day for that act shall be extended to the next business day. The term “business day” includes the days of the calendar week from Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays.

     12.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

     12.9 Recovery of Litigation Costs. In the event of any suit, action or other proceeding with respect to the subject matter, interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement whether at law or in equity, the prevailing party (as determined by the court, agency or other authority before which such suit, action or proceeding is commenced) shall, in addition to such other relief as may be awarded, be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and costs of investigation as actually incurred including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and costs of investigation incurred in appellate proceedings, costs incurred in establishing the right of indemnification, or in any action or participation in, or in connection with, any case or proceeding under Chapter 7, 11 or 13 of the Bankruptcy Code, II United States Code Sections 101 et seq., or any successor statutes, subject to the limitation in Section 11.2

12.10	Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.
12.11	No Waiver. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be

     12.12 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions herein which are not conditions to Closing and which do not materially affect the material benefits expected to be realized by the parties through the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby shall not render any other provisions invalid or unenforceable.

     12.13 Construction. Seller and Buyer acknowledge that each party (and its separate legal counsel, as applicable) have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement (including the exhibits hereto) or any amendments thereto, and the same shall be construed neither for nor against Seller or Buyer, but shall be given a reasonable interpretation in accordance with the plain meaning of its terms and the intent of the parties.

12.14	Exhibits. All exhibits attached hereto are incorporated herein as if set forth in full.
12.15	Further Instruments. Buyer and Seller hereby agree to make such acts and to

execute such other and further instruments as may reasonably be necessary both before and after the Closing Date to fully implement and confirm the transaction contemplated hereby.

     12.16 No Recordation. Without the prior written consent of Seller, there shall be no recordation of either this Agreement or any memorandum hereof, or any affidavit pertaining hereto and any such recordation of this Agreement or memorandum hereto, by Buyer without the prior written consent of Seller shall constitute a default hereunder by Buyer, whereupon this Agreement shall, at the option of Seller, terminate and be of no further force and effect. Upon such termination, the Deposit shall be immediately delivered to Seller, whereupon the parties shall have no further duties or obligations one to the other except for Buyer’s and Seller’s obligations, if any, under Sections 3.2, 3.4.2, 3.4.3, 3.5, 12.2, 12.9 and 12.16.

25

connection with the exchange, including, without limitation, any obligation for the payment of any escrow, title, brokerage or other costs incurred with respect to the exchange; (iii) no substitution of the effectuating party shall release said party from any of its obligations, warranties or representations set forth in this Agreement or from liability for any prior or subsequent default under this Agreement by the effectuating party, its successors, or assigns, which obligations shall continue as the obligations of a principal and not of a surety or guarantor; (iv) the effectuating party shall give the cooperating party at least ten (10) business days prior notice of the proposed changes required to effect such exchange and the identity of any party to be substituted in the escrow; (v) the effectuating party shall be responsible for preparing all additional agreements, documents and escrow instructions (collectively, the "Exchange Documents") required by the exchange, at its sole cost and expense; (vi) the effectuating party shall be responsible for making all determinations as to the legal sufficiency, tax considerations and other considerations relating to the proposed exchange, the Exchange Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, and the cooperating party shall in no event be responsible for, or in any way be deemed to warrant or represent any tax or other consequences of the exchange transaction arising by reason of the cooperating party's performance of the acts required hereby; and (vii) the Closing shall not be delayed as a result of a party’s election to structure the transaction as a tax deferred exchange in accordance with this Section 12.18.
