AGREEMENT OF PURCHASE AND SALE 301 INDUSTRIAL WAY, SAN CARLOS THIS AGREEMENT OF PURCHASE AND SALE ("AGREEMENT") is made by and between COMMUNICATIONS & POWER INDUSTRIES HOLDING CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("SELLER"), and PALO ALTO MEDICAL FOUNDATION, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation ("BUYER"), of which Sutter Health, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation ("SUTTER HEALTH"), is the sole member, who agree as follows: ARTICLE 1. BACKGROUND AND GENERAL. 1.01 Land. Seller is the owner of that certain real property located in the City of San Carlos (the "CITY"), County of San Mateo (the "COUNTY"), State of California (the "STATE"), commonly known as 301 Industrial Way, designated San Mateo County Assessor's Parcel No. 046-051-020 and 046-051-070 (the "LAND"). The Land contains approximately 18.092 acres of land, zoned for industrial uses, currently improved with one or more industrial buildings. 1.02 Purchase Property. For purposes of this Agreement, the "PURCHASE PROPERTY" means the Land and all improvements, if any, thereon, subject to Seller's obligation to remove certain improvements, and all of Seller's interest in all easements, rights-of-way, transferable permits, approvals, privileges and entitlements appurtenant thereto. 1.03 Purpose. The purpose of this Agreement is to set forth the terms and conditions of the purchase and sale of the Purchase Property. 1.04 Definitions; Index. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them by the section in which such term is first defined. An index listing the page numbers for such definitions is attached to this Agreement. This "AGREEMENT" includes all exhibits, schedules and other attachments hereto. 1.05 Effective Date. The "EFFECTIVE DATE" of this Agreement shall be the date on which two originals of this Agreement have been fully signed by both Buyer and Seller and with the liquidated damages provision and arbitration provision initialled by both Buyer and Seller, has been delivered to First American Title ("ESCROW HOLDER") at 1737 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95122, Attn: Dian Blair. Upon such receipt, Escrow Holder shall execute and deliver to Buyer and Seller the Acceptance by Escrow Holder in the form attached hereto. 1.06 Earlier Agreement. Buyer and Seller have previously entered into an agreement regarding due diligence matters (the "DUE DILIGENCE AGREEMENT"). The terms of this Agreement shall supercede and replace the provisions of the Due Diligence Agreement, except that Buyer and Seller shall remain liable under the Due Diligence Agreement for all matters arising thereunder prior to the Effective Date. -1- ARTICLE 2. PURCHASE AND SALE. 2.01 Purchase and Sale. Seller shall sell the Purchase Property to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase the Purchase Property from Seller on the terms and conditions specified in this Agreement. 2.02 Purchase Price. The purchase price ("PURCHASE PRICE") for the Purchase Property shall be $30,000,000. 2.03 Payment. The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows: 2.03.A Deposit. Buyer shall deposit the sums set forth below during the course of this Agreement. Escrow Holder shall notify both parties in writing immediately after receipt of any of such sums. (1) Initial Deposit. Within three business days following the Effective Date, Buyer shall deposit with Escrow Holder the sum of $200,000, which Escrow Holder shall deposit into an interest-bearing account pending Escrow Holder's receipt of the Buyer Approval Notice described below, or termination of this Agreement. This deposit, and all interest earned thereon, is hereinafter called the "INITIAL DEPOSIT". If the Initial Deposit is not deposited with Escrow Holder within such three business days, Seller's obligations under this Agreement shall terminate. (2) Additional Deposit. In the event Buyer elects to proceed with this transaction and sends the "Buyer Approval Notice" required by Section 4.01.A, prior to the end of the "Feasibility Period" (as described therein) and Seller has delivered the Seller Approval Notice described in Section 4.02, Buyer shall deposit sufficient additional funds (the "ADDITIONAL DEPOSIT") to bring the funds in Escrow to a total of $17,500,000. (3) Deposit Note and Deed of Trust. Immediately after Buyer's deposit of the Additional Deposit, Seller shall deliver to Escrow Holder a promissory note in the form attached as EXHIBIT A (the "DEPOSIT NOTE") signed by Seller and a deed of trust encumbering the Purchase Property (the "DEPOSIT DEED OF TRUST") in a form to be agreed to by the parties, in their sole discretion, during the Feasibility Period and once approved, initialed by the parties and attached to this Agreement as EXHIBIT D, signed by Seller and notarized. The Deposit Note shall bear interest at the Deposit Interest Rate as defined below and shall be payable, if at all, to Buyer within 150 days after delivery of Buyer's Termination Notice, as defined below. The Deposit Note and Deposit Deed of Trust are intended to secure Seller's obligation to return the Full Deposit to Buyer if and when required to do so as set forth in Section 3.03.C. (4) Satisfaction and Reconveyance. Buyer shall deposit with Escrow Holder concurrently with the Additional Deposit: (a) a fully executed and notarized Substitution of Trustee and Full Reconveyance (the "FULL RECONVEYANCE") with respect to the Deposit Deed of Trust; (b) the fully executed and notarized Termination of Buyer's Rights described below; and (c) instructions to Escrow Holder to record the Full Reconveyance and Termination of Buyer's Rights after Seller's delivery of funds to Escrow Holder with appropriate instructions to pay Buyer in full under the Deposit Note when -2- Escrow Holder is prepared to release such funds to Buyer, and to return the Deposit Note to Seller marked "Paid in Full". (5) Disbursement of Full Deposit; Recordation of Deposit Deed of Trust. Escrow Holder shall immediately: (a) use the Initial Deposit and the Additional Deposit (collectively, the "FULL Deposit") to fully satisfy the existing loan secured by a first deed of trust (the "EXISTING FIRST DEED OF TRUST") on the Purchase Property, (b) retain the Deposit Note and (c) record the Deposit Deed of Trust. If the Full Deposit is insufficient to satisfy the Existing First Deed of Trust, Seller shall deposit any required additional funds to satisfy the Existing First Deed of Trust. If the Full Deposit is more than is required, then the remainder of the Full Deposit shall be released to Seller. (6) Nonrefundable; Applicable. Once deposited with Escrow Holder, the Full Deposit shall become nonrefundable, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The Full Deposit shall earn interest from the time the Additional Deposit is deposited with Escrow Holder at a rate equal to the prime interest rate in effect (as published in the Western Edition of the Wall Street Journal) at the time the Additional Deposit is deposited into Escrow (the "DEPOSIT INTEREST Rate"). If the Escrow closes, the Full Deposit and accrued interest shall be allocated to and applied to the Purchase Price as set forth below. 2.03.B Balance of Purchase Price. Buyer shall pay the balance of the Purchase Price in full, by Federal wire transfer, at the Close of Escrow. Funds must arrive in time to permit recording and delivery of funds to Seller on the Close of Escrow. 2.04 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. BY INITIALLING THIS SECTION 2.04 IN THE SPACE PROVIDED BELOW, BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT IF THE CLOSING FAILS TO OCCUR BY REASON OF THE DEFAULT OF BUYER, THE FULL DEPOSIT, INCLUDING INTEREST THEREON AT THE RATE SET FORTH IN THE DEPOSIT NOTE, SHALL BE DEEMED LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR BUYER'S NON-PERFORMANCE AS SELLER'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST BUYER FOR SUCH DEFAULT. ACCORDINGLY, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO FURTHER OBLIGATION UNDER THE DEPOSIT NOTE (WHICH SHALL BE DEEMED SATISFIED) OR DEPOSIT DEED OF TRUST, WHICH SHALL BE RECONVEYED. BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX ACTUAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM SUCH DEFAULT, DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS TRANSACTION AND THE UNIQUE NATURE OF THE PURCHASE PROPERTY, AND THAT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLER'S DAMAGES IN SUCH EVENT IS THE FULL DEPOSIT ($17,500,000.00), INCLUDING INTEREST THEREON AT THE RATE SET FORTH IN THE DEPOSIT NOTE, IN VIEW OF, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE OBLIGATIONS IMPOSED ON SELLER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE AMOUNT OF THE DEBT SECURED BY THE PURCHASE PROPERTY, AND SELLER'S AGREEMENT TO ACCEPT A LIQUIDATED SUM IN LIEU OF ITS REMEDY OF SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT LIQUIDATED DAMAGES ARE PARTICULARLY APPROPRIATE FOR THIS TRANSACTION AND AGREE THAT SAID LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SHALL BE PAID IN THE EVENT OF -3- BUYER'S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE PURCHASE PROPERTY, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT. THE PAYMENT OF SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OF PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 3275 OR 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677. NOTHING IN THIS PROVISION SHALL, HOWEVER, BE DEEMED TO LIMIT BUYER'S LIABILITY TO SELLER FOR DAMAGES OR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF FOR BREACH OF BUYER'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 4.01.A (INDEMNITY RE: BUYER'S ACTIVITIES AT THE PROPERTY), SECTION 8.15 (CONFIDENTIALITY) OR SECTION 8.07 (ATTORNEYS' FEES). IN THE EVENT ANY PORTION OF THE FULL DEPOSIT REMAINS IN ESCROW AT THE TIME OF BUYER'S DEFAULT, BUYER AND SELLER HEREBY INSTRUCT AND AUTHORIZE ESCROW HOLDER TO RELEASE SUCH PORTION TO SELLER. FURTHER, BUYER AND SELLER HEREBY INSTRUCT AND AUTHORIZE ESCROW HOLDER TO RETURN TO SELLER THE DEPOSIT NOTE MARKED "SATISFIED" AND RECORD THE FULL RECONVEYANCE AND THE TERMINATION OF BUYER'S RIGHTS, WHICH ARE BEING HELD BY ESCROW HOLDER. ------------------------------ ----------------------------- BUYER SELLER 2.05 Memorandum of Agreement. If Buyer delivers the Additional Deposit, prior to the release of the Full Deposit, (i) Buyer and Seller shall execute a Memorandum of this Agreement which shall be recorded concurrently with the recordation of the Deposit Deed of Trust, and (ii) Buyer shall execute (in recordable form) a Termination of Buyer's Rights under this Agreement ("TERMINATION OF BUYER'S RIGHTS") to be held by Escrow Holder and recorded in the event this Agreement is terminated and the Deposit Note is fully satisfied, either by repayment or as Seller's liquidated damages as provided in Section 2.04. 2.06 Tax-Deferred Exchange. If either Seller or Buyer wishes to enter into a tax-deferred exchange for the Purchase Property, then each of the parties hereto agrees to cooperate reasonably with the other in connection with such exchange, including, without limitation, the execution of such documents as may reasonably be necessary to effectuate the same. Such obligations shall, however, be subject to the following conditions: (a) the party not initiating the exchange shall not be obligated to delay the Close of Escrow; (b) all additional costs in connection with the exchange shall be borne by the party initiating the exchange; (c) the party not initiating the exchange shall not be obligated to take title to any property in connection with any such exchange (other than the Purchase Property, as provided for in this Agreement) or to incur any liability whatsoever in connection therewith by way of note, contract or otherwise; and (d) the party initiating the exchange shall defend, indemnify and hold the other party harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs, expenses, damages and losses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs) which, in any way, arise out of or relate to the indemnified party's participation in such actual or proposed exchange. -4- 2.07 Buyer's Remedies. Except as provided in Section 5.05.C, Section 5.05.D, the Deposit Note and the Deposit Deed of Trust, in the event of Seller's default under this Agreement, Buyer's sole and exclusive remedy shall be to terminate its obligation to purchase the Purchase Property and, only if provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, to receive the return of the Full Deposit within 150 days from notice of Buyer's election to terminate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to give Buyer a right to terminate this Agreement or to the return of the Full Deposit, unless such right is expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. ARTICLE 3. ESCROW. 3.01 Opening. The purchase and sale of the Purchase Property shall be consummated through an escrow (the "ESCROW") opened with Escrow Holder by depositing this Agreement in accordance with Section 1.05. 3.02 Instructions. This Agreement constitutes escrow instructions to Escrow Holder. Any supplemental escrow instructions given to Escrow Holder shall be consistent with the terms of this Agreement and shall provide that, as between the parties, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail if there is any inconsistency. 3.03 Close of Escrow; Buyer's Termination Notice. 3.03.A Generally. "CLOSING" or the "CLOSE OF ESCROW" shall mean the date upon which the deed to the Purchase Property is recorded with the San Mateo County Recorder. Closing shall occur on or before the date 15 days after the date Seller gives Buyer Notice that Seller has complied with all of Seller's obligations which are to be complied with prior to the Close of Escrow under Sections 7.01 and 7.02, but no later than September 30, 2004 (the "OUTSIDE CLOSING DATE"), as may be extended under this Agreement. Within one business day after receiving Seller's notice, Buyer shall notify Seller and Escrow Holder of the actual day for Close of Escrow. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in conjunction with the negotiation of the Remediation Plan (described in Section 7.01), Buyer and Seller may agree to extend the Outside Closing Date prior to the end of the Feasibility Period. 3.03.B Seller's Right to Extend. By written notice to Buyer, Seller may extend the Outside Closing Date by no more than three 90-day periods (each a "CLOSING EXTENSION PERIOD"). The first two Closing Extension Periods may be exercised if Seller has been unable to vacate the Purchase Property or complete Seller's other obligations under this Agreement prior to the Outside Closing Date, and the third Closing Extension Period may be exercised only if Seller has been unable to vacate the Purchase Property and complete the Demolition as described in Section 7.02 prior to the Outside Closing Date, as previously extended. 3.03.C Seller's Failure to Comply. If, as of the Outside Closing Date or, if Seller has extended, the end of the relevant Closing Extension Period, an uncured Repayment Event, as defined below, has occurred, then provided Buyer is not in material default of this Agreement, Buyer may notify Seller in writing that Buyer has elected to terminate this Agreement (a "BUYER'S TERMINATION NOTICE"). Seller shall return -5- the Full Deposit to Buyer within 150 days after delivery of Buyer's Termination Notice, in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Note. A "REPAYMENT EVENT" shall mean only the following: (i) Seller has failed to complete the Remediation as required by the Remediation Plan or otherwise comply in all material respects with the material terms of the Remediation Plan pursuant to Section 7.01; (ii) Seller's and Buyer's environmental consultants have, or if they cannot agree, an independent professional environmental consultant selected by Seller and Buyer, has concluded that Seller will be unable to complete the Remediation as provided in Section 7.01.C; (iii) Seller has failed to complete the Demolition as required by the Demolition Plan pursuant to Section 7.02; or (iv) Seller has failed to vacate the Purchase Property and deliver the Grant Deed in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, however, Buyer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement, or the right to the return of the Full Deposit in the event that Escrow fails to close as the result of the breach by Buyer of a material obligation under this Agreement. In the event Buyer's Termination Notice is given pursuant to this Section 3.03.C, Escrow Holder shall deliver the Deposit Note to Buyer. 3.03.D Buyer's Obligations on Full Satisfaction of Note. If the Deposit Note is repaid by Seller or otherwise satisfied pursuant to Section 2.04 whereby Seller retains the Full Deposit as liquidated damages for Buyer's non-performance, Buyer shall, or cause Escrow Holder to, deliver the original Deposit Note to Seller, and record the Full Reconveyance and the Termination of Buyer's Rights. 3.04 Costs. Charges and expenses incurred in the Escrow are to be borne by the parties as follows: 3.04.A Seller's Costs. Seller shall bear the following costs: the CLTA portion of the title insurance premium attributable to the title policy issued at the Close of Escrow; the cost of any title endorsements, if any, agreed to by Seller in response to objections to title made by Buyer; all County documentary transfer taxes; and one-half of the Escrow fees and other related closing costs. If the City should adopt a documentary transfer tax, Buyer and Seller will bear the cost of such tax equally. 3.04.B Buyer's Costs. Buyer shall bear the following costs: the incremental title insurance premium for any ALTA Owner's Extended Coverage desired by Buyer; the cost of all title policy endorsements other than those, if any, agreed to by Seller under Section 3.04.A; the cost of all lender's title insurance coverage; and, the remaining one-half of the Escrow fees, recording fees and other related closing costs. 3.04.C Miscellaneous Costs. All other fees and miscellaneous costs not specifically allocated above, other than fees and costs related to a tax-deferred exchange which shall be allocated in accordance with Section 2.06, shall be borne in accordance with the custom in the County, as determined by Escrow Holder. 3.05 Prorations and Adjustments. Real property taxes shall be prorated as of the Close of Escrow, based upon the latest available tax bills. With respect to any prorations based on estimates rather than bills for the period covered by the proration, if and when the actual bill for the tax, assessment or other charge related thereto is finally issued by the appropriate agency, the parties shall adjust said proration, as necessary, within 30 -6- days of such bill becoming available, based on such final billing. The party owing reimbursement following any such adjustment shall make full payment within 30 days following the date written notice containing the basis for the adjustment and the amount due is sent by the other party. If the party owing reimbursement fails to make such payment within such period, the amount unpaid shall bear interest at 10% per annum from the date of such written notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall retain the right to pursue a property tax refund and/or reassessment for any period prior to the Close of Escrow and Buyer agrees to cooperate with Seller in its pursuit of any such refund and/or reassessment. Any refund relating to the period prior to Close of Escrow shall belong exclusively to Seller. 3.06 Deliveries to Escrow by Seller. Prior to Closing, Seller shall deliver into Escrow the following items to be delivered and/or recorded at Closing: 3.06.A Grant Deed. A duly executed and acknowledged grant deed for the Purchase Property. The grant deed shall not show the amount of transfer tax paid or any other indication of the Purchase Price.

A sworn Affidavit stating under penalty of perjury that Seller is not a "foreign person" as such term is defined in Section 1445(f)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "CODE"), or such other evidence as Buyer and Escrow Holder may require showing that Buyer is not required to withhold taxes from the Purchase Price under Section 1445(a) of the Code. 3.06.C California Franchise Tax Withholding. Evidence reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and Escrow Holder that Seller is exempt from the provisions of Section 18662 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code and that neither Buyer nor Escrow Holder is required to withhold any amounts from the Purchase Price pursuant thereto. 3.06.D Miscellaneous. Such other documents and instructions as may be reasonably required by the Escrow Holder in order to close Escrow in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 3.07 Deliveries to Escrow by Buyer. Prior to Closing, Buyer shall deliver into Escrow the following items to be delivered and/or recorded at Closing: 3.07.A Closing Payments. The balance of the Purchase Price, and Buyer's share, if any, of any then-known prorations, fees and costs, in immediately available funds. 3.07.B Miscellaneous. Such other documents and instructions as may be reasonably required by the Escrow Holder in order to close Escrow in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. ARTICLE 4. CONDITIONS TO CLOSE OF ESCROW. 4.01 Buyer's Conditions to Close of Escrow. Buyer's obligation to purchase the Purchase Property and close Escrow is subject to the fulfillment of each and -7- every one of the conditions in this Section 4.01. Except where a different time period is specifically set forth, satisfaction of each condition shall occur no later than the Close of Escrow. If any of the conditions to be satisfied prior to the end of the Feasibility Period are not satisfied or waived by Buyer by the date for satisfaction, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and receive back the Initial Deposit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, by giving timely written notice to Seller and Escrow Holder, in which case the parties shall have no further obligation hereunder to each other except for Buyer's obligations under Sections 4.01.A and 8.15. 4.01.A Feasibility.

Buyer and Seller agree that by Seller providing the foregoing information, Seller does not intend and shall not be deemed to waive its attorney-client -8- privilege or any attorney work product privilege, other than with respect to Buyer and the actual document provided. (3) Right of Entry. Seller hereby grants to Buyer a license to enter upon the Purchase Property from the Effective Date through the Close of Escrow or sooner termination of this Agreement for the purpose of conducting engineering surveys, investigations, soil tests and other studies, provided that Buyer provides two (or in the case of proposed intrusive testing, seven) business day's prior notice to Seller of its entry upon the Purchase Property. Such entry shall be subject to the following covenants of Buyer. (a) Buyer shall bear the entire cost of all tests, investigations, surveys and studies performed by Buyer or at Buyer's direction. (b) Buyer shall use (and cause its contractors to use) all due care and consideration, including, without limitation, attention to safety of persons and property, in connection with all of its inspections or tests and those on its behalf and shall in all instances comply and cause others to comply with all applicable laws and rights of and obligations owed to third parties and shall not interfere with Seller's or any tenant's use and occupancy of the Purchase Property. Any intrusive or invasive testing by Buyer shall be subject to Seller's prior written approval, which approval, among other things, shall be subject to Seller satisfying its obligations to obtain prior approval of Varian Associates, Inc.

Any contractor performing any intrusive testing shall maintain pollution liability insurance in an amount of not less than $3,000,000.00 per injury or occurrence. Prior to entering the Purchase Property, Buyer shall provide Seller with a current certificate of such insurance, and in the case of a contractor's insurance, the certificate shall name Seller and Varian Medical Systems, an affiliate of Varian, as additional insureds on the liability coverage. (d) Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend (with counsel selected by Buyer and reasonably acceptable to Seller) and hold Seller and its affiliated entities, and all of Seller's and such affiliated entities' respective shareholders, members, managers, officers, directors, employees and agents and the Purchase Property -9- harmless from any and all liability, claims, damage and expense (including but not limited to attorney's fees) caused by or resulting from Buyer's and its consultants' activities on or in connection with the Purchase Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Buyer shall not be obligated to defend or indemnify Seller, nor to repair any damage resulting from any one or more of the following: (1) the discovery of Hazardous Materials (as defined in Section 5.03.D) on the Purchase Property; (2) the discovery of a pre-existing latent defect in the Purchase Property; (3) the spread of Hazardous Materials already present on the Purchase Property despite the use of reasonable care consistent with the standard of care used by competent environmental professionals; or (4) the act or omission of Seller or its agents. (e) Buyer shall promptly pay and discharge all demands for payment relating to work performed on the Purchase Property by Buyer or at Buyer's direction, including without limitation, work relating to Buyer's investigation of the Purchase Property and take all other steps to avoid the assertion of claims or liens against the Purchase Property. In the event a claim or lien is recorded with respect to any such work on the Purchase Property, Buyer, within two days of Buyer's receipt of notice of such recordation shall either: (a) pay such claim or lien in full or (b) record or deliver a surety bond sufficient to release such claim or lien in accordance with applicable law. (4) Governmental Inquiries. Buyer shall not begin any zoning or other approval process without Seller's prior written approval. Buyer shall advise Seller in advance of any proposed formal meeting with the City of San Carlos or any other local governmental or quasi-governmental agency regarding the change of use or redevelopment of the Purchase Property. Seller may, at its option, be present at any such meeting through its designated representative. (5) Reports. Prior to Close of Escrow, Buyer agrees to provide Seller (within two business days of Buyer's receipt or generation of such information or the occurrence of the subject meeting, as the case may be) with copies of all applications, permits, environmental surveys, surveys, soil tests, engineering reports, resolutions and similar third party documents prepared, obtained, or developed in connection with the Purchase Property, including summaries of meetings with the City of San Carlos and local governmental and quasi-governmental agencies, without cost or expense to Seller. Buyer acknowledges that Seller may disclose such information to Varian. (6) Status Reports to Seller. Every two weeks during the Feasibility Period and monthly thereafter until Close of Escrow, Buyer shall submit to Seller a written status report regarding Buyer's due diligence investigation and pursuit of entitlements, including without limitation its inquiries with local governmental and quasi-governmental agencies, together with a list of Buyer's consultants. Buyer and Seller agree to meet at least every two weeks or more often as necessary to discuss the status of Buyer's investigation and progress with respect to the City of San Carlos. On May 1, 2003, Buyer shall provide Seller with a written notice ("FEASIBILITY STATUS NOTICE") (i) identifying any matters which remain to be resolved to Buyer's satisfaction prior to Buyer giving the Buyer Approval Notice, and (ii) indicating whether Buyer desires an extension of the Feasibility Period. The Feasibility Status Notice shall be for the purpose of informing Seller of the status of Buyer's investigations and shall not bind Buyer. If Buyer requests an extension of -10- the Feasibility Period to complete its investigations (it being acknowledged that Seller is not obligated to agree to such an extension), Buyer shall increase the Initial Deposit to $500,000 and authorize Escrow Holder to release up to all of the Initial Deposit for Seller's benefit to the holder of the Existing First Deed of Trust in the amount of the consideration required for an extension of the due date (currently on or about June 1, 2003) of the note secured by the Existing First Deed of Trust, upon receipt by Escrow Holder of a promissory note from Seller to Buyer in such amount. Buyer's liability under this Section 4.01.A shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 4.01.B Title; Title Policy. At Close of Escrow, Seller shall convey the Purchase Property to Buyer by grant deed, subject only to the "PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS" defined below, and, at the Close of Escrow, shall cause the Escrow Holder's underwriter to issue the "Buyer's Title Policy" described below. (1) Preliminary Report; Buyer's Title Notice. Seller has provided Buyer an amended preliminary title report covering the Purchase Property, and legible copies of all documents referred to therein (collectively, the "PRELIMINARY REPORT"). Buyer shall have until the 30th day following the Effective Date (the "INITIAL TITLE REVIEW DATE"), to give Seller written notice ("BUYER'S TITLE NOTICE") of Buyer's approval or disapproval of each and every item or exception set forth in the Preliminary Report. Buyer's failure to give the Buyer's Title Notice by the Initial Title Review Date shall be deemed to be Buyer's disapproval of title to the Purchase Property and this Agreement shall terminate, Buyer shall receive back the Initial Deposit and the parties shall have no further obligation hereunder to each other except for Buyer's obligations under Sections 4.01.A and 8.15. (2) Seller's Title Notice. In the event that the Buyer's Title Notice disapproves any exception, Seller shall have until 5:00 p.m. on the 10th day following the Initial Title Review Date (the ("SELLER'S TITLE RESPONSE DATE") to give Buyer written notice ("SELLER'S TITLE NOTICE") of those disapproved title matters, if any, which Seller is willing to remove or cause to be insured over. If Seller fails to deliver Seller's Title Notice, Seller shall be deemed to have refused to remove all disapproved title matters. If Seller's Title Notice refuses to remove any items disapproved by Buyer, Buyer shall have until 5:00 p.m. on the 10th day following Seller's Title Response Date to give Seller written notice ("BUYER'S TITLE WAIVER NOTICE") that Buyer waives its prior disapproval with respect to all items which Seller has refused (or is deemed to have refused) to remove. If Seller has not received Buyer's Title Waiver Notice by 5:00 p.m. on the last date for Buyer to give Buyer's Title Waiver Notice under this subsection 4.01.B(2), this Agreement shall terminate, Buyer shall receive back the Initial Deposit, and the parties shall have no further obligations hereunder to each other except for Buyer's obligations under Sections 4.01.A and 8.15. Seller shall have until the end of the Feasibility Period to remove those exceptions which Seller agrees to remove. (3) Permitted Exceptions. (i) a lien to secure payment of taxes, not delinquent, (ii) the Title Company's standard and customary exceptions set forth in Buyer's Title Policy, (iii) matters affecting the condition of title created by or with the consent of Buyer or as a result of Buyer's (or any party on behalf of Buyer) acts or omissions, (iv) matters identified on the Preliminary Report and approved or deemed -11- approved by Buyer hereunder, (v) matters which would be reflected on a current ALTA survey, (vi) matters which would be disclosed by physical inspection of the Property, (vii) planning, zoning, land use and subdivision laws, ordinances, regulations and requirements, (viii) the Deposit Deed of Trust, and (ix) Varian's access rights pursuant to the Varian Stock Sale Agreement and Varian Site Access Agreement (all of the foregoing in clauses (i) through (ix) herein referred to as the "PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS"). (4) Buyer's Title Policy. The title insurance policy issued at Close of Escrow (the "BUYER'S TITLE POLICY") shall be a CLTA Owner's policy of title insurance, with liability in the amount of the Purchase Price insuring title in Buyer to the Purchase Property, subject only to: (a) the Permitted Exceptions; (b) the printed exceptions and exclusions common to CLTA policies; and (c) the other matters affecting title provided for elsewhere in this Agreement. Additionally, Buyer, at Buyer's cost, may obtain an ALTA Lender's policy of title insurance, with liability in the amount of the Deposit Note, insuring the priority of the Deposit Deed of Trust, subject only to the same matters. (5) ALTA Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at Buyer's election to be made as part of Buyer's Title Notice, the Buyer's Title Policy shall be an ALTA Extended Coverage Owner's policy, so long as Buyer furnishes any ALTA Survey required by Escrow Holder as set forth below (or, at Buyer's election, agrees to accept the survey exception required by the title insurer), and so long as the issuance of such coverage does not delay Buyer's Title Notice or the Close of Escrow. If Buyer does elect to obtain an ALTA Extended Coverage Owner's title policy, the printed exceptions and exclusions to the Buyer's Title Policy would be those common to ALTA Extended Coverage policies. 4.01.C Additional Agreements.

Buyer and Seller each covenants to use good faith efforts to cause the conditions in this Section 4.02 to be satisfied. Except where a different time period is specifically set forth, satisfaction of each condition shall occur no later than the Close of Escrow. If any of such conditions are not satisfied or waived by Seller by the date for satisfaction, then Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, by giving written notice to Buyer, whereupon the parties shall have no further obligation to each other except for Buyer's obligations under Sections 4.01.A and 8.15. If Seller terminates this Agreement at a time when Buyer is not in default under this Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled to the return of the Full Deposit. Seller shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement, however, where the failure of a condition resulted from the breach by Seller of an obligation under this Agreement. Provided that the conditions in favor of Seller that are to be satisfied prior to the end of the Feasibility Period have been satisfied or waived by Seller, Seller shall deliver to Buyer and Escrow Holder a notice that such Seller's conditions have been satisfied or waived ("SELLER'S APPROVAL NOTICE"). If Seller fails to deliver Seller's Approval Notice on the later of the end of the Feasibility Period or within five days after a request from Buyer, this Agreement shall terminate, the Initial Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and the parties shall have no further obligation hereunder to each other except Buyer's obligations under Sections 4.01.A and 8.15. 4.02.A Buyer's Performance.

Buyer hereby acknowledges that it has read and is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542 ("SECTION 1542"), which is set forth below. "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or expect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."

Failure of Buyer to terminate this Agreement within such 10-day period shall be deemed a waiver of the right to terminate and a waiver of and release of Seller for any claim arising out of the inaccuracy. If Seller had no knowledge of the inaccuracy on the date of Seller's execution of this Agreement, then Buyer's sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, and if Buyer does terminate this Agreement, the Full Deposit shall be returned to Buyer within 150 days after delivery of Buyer's Termination Notice in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Note, and the parties shall have no further obligation hereunder to each other except for Buyer's obligations under Section 4.01.A and 8.15. 5.05.C Other Rights.

If requested to do so, prior to the Close of Escrow, Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer (but at no cost, expense or liability to Seller or the Land and improvements thereon) in connection with Buyer's inquiries of local governmental or quasi-governmental agencies with respect to the Land and the Purchase Property, and with respect to Buyer's efforts to obtain further entitlements for the Purchase Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the deposit of the Additional Deposit, Seller shall have the right, in its discretion, to approve any proposed application, permit, condition, dedication or exaction. Following the deposit of the Additional Deposit, Seller -18- agrees not to unreasonably withhold its approval of any application or any proposed permit, condition, dedication or exaction, provided that no condition, dedication, covenant or exaction shall become final or binding prior to the Close of Escrow. 6.02 Casualty/Condemnation. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of any casualty to the Land or any condemnation proceeding commenced prior to the Close of Escrow. If any damage caused by such casualty is material or such condemnation proceeding relates to or may result in the loss of any material portion of the Land, Buyer shall, within 10 calendar days after receipt of such notification, elect in writing either (a) provided Buyer is not in material default of this Agreement, to terminate this Agreement (Buyer's Termination Notice), in which event the Full Deposit shall become due to Buyer within 150 days after delivery of Buyer's Termination Notice in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Note, each party shall bear one-half of the Escrow costs incurred to date and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except for those obligations expressly stated as surviving termination of this Agreement, or (b) to continue to proceed under this Agreement to Closing without adjustment to the Purchase Price, in which event upon the Close of Escrow, Seller shall assign to Buyer any insurance proceeds, compensation, award or other payments or relief resulting from such casualty or condemnation proceedings to the extent applicable to the Land. In the event Buyer fails to deliver either such election in writing prior to the expiration of the 10-day period, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to continue with the Closing under clause (b) immediately preceding. For purposes of this Section 6.02, "material" shall mean in the case of (1) damage to the Land, damage which would require additional repair in connection with Buyer's development of the Land, which cost to repair would be in excess of Buyer's development costs without such damage by at least $3,000,000; and (2) the portion of the Land affected by the condemnation proceeding, 10% of the Land. Notwithstanding anything herein, in the event of damage to the Land, if Buyer elects to terminate the Agreement as provided hereinabove, Seller may elect within 10 calendar days to repair such damage prior to Closing or agree to a credit against the Purchase Price for the cost of repair, in which case Buyer's Termination Notice shall be of no effect and the parties shall proceed to Closing. ARTICLE 7. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS REMEDIATION AND DEMOLITION. 7.01 Hazardous Materials Remediation. 7.01.A Remediation Plan. During the Feasibility Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate the terms of a plan (the "REMEDIATION PLAN") for the remediation of contamination of the Purchase Property by Hazardous Materials as identified in investigations conducted by Buyer or Seller and disclosed to the other (the "REMEDIATION"). After approval by both parties in their sole discretion, and to Seller's reasonable satisfaction by Varian, the Remediation Plan shall be initialed by the parties, attached to this Agreement as EXHIBIT E and incorporated herein as though set forth in full. 7.01.B Remediation. Seller shall cause completion of the Remediation in accordance with the terms of the Remediation Plan prior to the Outside Closing Date, as may be extended as provided herein. -19- 7.01.C Termination on Determination of Seller's Inability to Complete Remediation. If Buyer determines no earlier than 60 days prior to the Outside Closing Date that Seller will be unable to complete the Remediation prior to the Outside Closing Date as extended by any permitted extensions, Buyer shall give Seller notice of such determination (the "COMPLETION NOTICE"). Unless Seller provides Buyer, within 30 days after receiving the Completion Notice, with adequate assurances of Seller's ability to timely complete the Remediation, Buyer may obtain a signed statement from Northgate Environmental Management, Inc., Buyer's environmental consultant, and from Treadwell & Rollo, Seller's environmental consultant, stating that the Remediation cannot be timely completed (including any permitted extensions) and such delays are not a result of force majeure events. If such statement cannot be obtained because such consultants do not agree, then a statement to the same effect from an independent professional environmental consultant selected by Buyer and Seller may be substituted by Buyer. If Buyer desires to terminate its obligations under this Agreement in reliance on such third party statement(s), provided Buyer is not in material default of this Agreement, such statement(s) shall be attached to a Buyer's Termination Notice and delivered to Seller, in which event the Full Deposit shall be returned to Buyer within 150 days of delivery of such Buyer's Termination Notice, as provided in the Deposit Note. In addition to the foregoing, Buyer and Seller may agree, in their discretion, to invoke the provisions of this Section 7.01.C prior to the 60th day prior to the Outside Closing Date. 7.02 Demolition and Removal of Improvements. Prior to the end of the Feasibility Period, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate the terms of a plan for the demolition ("DEMOLITION") of all buildings and some or all improvements on the Purchase Property (the "DEMOLITION PLAN"). After approval by both parties, in their sole discretion, and to Seller's reasonable satisfaction by Varian, the Demolition Plan shall be initialed by the parties, attached as EXHIBIT F to this Agreement and incorporated herein as though set forth in full. Prior to the Close of Escrow, Seller shall cause the completion of the Demolition in accordance with the terms of the Demolition Plan. 7.03 Hazardous Materials Indemnification.

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California and venue for any dispute arising hereunder shall be Santa Clara County, California. The headings and captions of articles and sections used in this Agreement are for convenience only, and this Agreement shall be interpreted without reference to any headings or captions. Similarly, the presence or absence of language in prior drafts of this document shall not be used to interpret any provision hereof. This Agreement has been prepared and revised by attorneys for both parties, so any rule of law or construction that ambiguities are to be construed against the party responsible for drafting the Agreement or a provision hereof shall not apply. 8.04 Successors Bound. The provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Buyer and Seller, as provided herein. 8.05 Resolution of Disputes. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including any dispute relating to interpretation of or performance under this Agreement ("DISPUTE"), shall be resolved in the manner set forth in this Section 8.05, which shall be in lieu of litigation in any court (except as provided in -22- Section 8.05.B regarding provisional remedies), and the parties specifically waive any right to a jury trial of any dispute between them. 8.05.A Negotiation. A party contending that there is a Dispute shall notify the other party of the Dispute in writing explaining the nature of the Dispute ("DISPUTE NOTICE"). The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute promptly (but no later than 30 days after receipt of the notice of such Dispute) by negotiations between senior representatives of the parties who have authority to settle the Dispute (each, a "REPRESENTATIVE"). Prior to expiration of the 30-day negotiation period, the party who has first notified the other party of the Dispute shall submit a written offer to settle the Dispute that includes a specific dollar amount. 8.05.B Provisional Remedies. At any time after expiration of the 30-day negotiation period and prior to selection of the Arbitrator, a party requiring provisional relief to maintain the status quo, may seek provisional relief in court. The granting of such provisional relief shall not constitute a waiver of the parties' obligations to resolve the Dispute by arbitration as described in Section 8.05.C and the Arbitrator shall not be deemed deprived of jurisdiction to award or modify any provisional relief. Once the Arbitrator has been selected, the Arbitrator shall promptly determine if any existing provisional relief should remain in effect and may continue, terminate or modify such provisional relief. 8.05.C ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES. In the event the Representatives have not resolved the Dispute within the 30-day negotiation period, the Dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration before the arbitrator (the "ARBITRATOR") identified in subsection 8.05.C(10) below, in accordance with the following provisions: (1) The parties stipulate and agree that any and all necessary parties may be joined in the arbitration, but the parties agree to proceed with arbitration of all Disputes between themselves even if other parties refuse to participate. The parties specifically waive any objection to arbitration based on the failure or refusal of any other party to be joined. (2) Within 60 days after the expiration of the 30-day negotiation period, the arbitration shall be initiated by written notice (the "ARBITRATION NOTICE") of a demand to arbitrate by registered or certified mail sent by one party to the other party or parties. If an Arbitration Notice is not given within the 60-day period, then the right to make a claim based on the Dispute described in the Dispute Notice shall be forever waived. The Arbitration Notice shall include a plain statement of the Dispute and the relief requested and shall select to be governed by either AAA (as described below) or JAMS (as described below). Within 30 days of receipt of the Arbitration Notice, each responding party or parties shall provide its own plain statement of the Dispute and the bases of any defenses it intends to assert in response to the demand. Seller and Buyer shall each advance one-half of the Arbitrator's fee, as fixed and required by the Arbitrator in order to initiate the arbitration, although the parties shall ultimately bear responsibility for such fee as determined by the Arbitrator. (3) The parties shall attempt to agree on a retired judge to be the Arbitrator. If they are unable to agree, the parties shall simultaneously exchange the -23- names of three available retired judges and a judge appearing on both lists shall be selected. If there is no common available Arbitrator and the parties still cannot agree on an Arbitrator, the parties shall submit further lists until one is selected. If the parties have not selected the Arbitrator within 15 days following the responding party's statement of its position, the arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with the applicable rules of arbitration (AAA or JAMS, as the case may be). The Arbitrator so selected shall be notified immediately and a date for the arbitration shall be set within six months (if the Close of Escrow has not occurred) or nine months (if the Close of Escrow has occurred) after selection of the Arbitrator. The Dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration under the American Arbitration Association's ("AAA") Commercial Arbitration Rules or the arbitration rules of JAMS (whichever is elected by the party giving the Arbitration Notice) then in effect, as supplemented by this Section 8.05. To the extent this Section 8.05 is inconsistent with the applicable arbitration rules, the provisions of this Section 8.05 shall control. (4) The Arbitrator shall schedule a pre-hearing conference to resolve procedural matters and arrange for the exchange of information. (5) Prior to the arbitration, the parties shall be allowed the following limited discovery: each party shall be entitled to receive relevant non-attorney-client privileged documents and to take up to three fact and/or expert witness depositions in the discretion of the Arbitrator. Any further discovery shall only be allowed by order of the Arbitrator upon a showing that it is critical to the presentation of a party's claims or defenses. All discovery shall be completed 30 days prior to the arbitration. (6) The arbitration shall be completed in no more than five full consecutive days, if possible. The following is the timetable preferred by the parties and which the parties agree cannot be varied except by the Arbitrator upon a showing that it is critical to the presentation of a party's claims or defenses. Each party shall have two days to present its position using documentary and testimonial evidence. The party giving the Arbitration Notice shall present its case first. One day shall be reserved for argument or the taking of such further evidence as the Arbitrator may require. (7) The Arbitrator shall have the power to grant all legal and equitable remedies, including, but not limited to, injunction, specific performance, reformation, cancellation, accounting and compensatory damages, except only that lost profits, consequential damages and punitive damages shall not be awarded. The Arbitrator shall issue a binding decision within 30 days of the conclusion of the arbitration. The Arbitrator's interpretations of California law or applicable federal law shall form the basis of the decision. The Arbitrator's decision shall be conclusive and binding, and it may thereafter be confirmed as a judgment by the Superior Court of the State of California, subject only to challenge on the grounds set forth in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1286.2. The validity and enforceability of the Arbitrator's decision is to be determined exclusively by the California courts pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.05. (8) The Arbitrator shall award reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, including the Arbitrator's fees and expert fees, to the "Prevailing Party." For purposes of this section, the "PREVAILING PARTY" shall be the party which obtains a net monetary recovery, exclusive of attorneys' fees and costs UNLESS the net monetary -24- recovery is equal to or less than the amount of a written offer from the opposing party made after the negotiations described in Section 8.05.A. The Arbitrator shall have exclusive and binding authority to determine entitlement to attorneys' fees and costs, including Arbitrator's and experts' fees, under this section. (9) The arbitration shall be conducted in Santa Clara County, California. Any party may be represented by counsel or other authorized representative. (10) The Arbitrator shall be a retired judge of the Federal District Court or Court of Appeal or the Superior Court, Appellate Court or Supreme Court of the State of California.

Other than as provided in this Section 8.14.A or in furtherance of a tax-deferred exchange in accordance with Section 2.06, Buyer may not assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement, the Deposit Note or the Deposit Deed of Trust, without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld in Seller's discretion.

SEVENTH AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT OF PURCHASE AND SALE This Seventh Amendment to Agreement of Purchase and Sale ("SEVENTH AMENDMENT") is entered into as of November 12, 2003, by and between COMMUNICATIONS & POWER INDUSTRIES HOLDING CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("SELLER"), and PALO ALTO MEDICAL FOUNDATION, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation ("BUYER"), who for consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is agreed between them, agree as follows: 1. Original Agreement. Seller and Buyer are the parties to that certain Agreement of Purchase and Sale dated February 7, 2003, which was reinstated and amended by that certain First Amendment to Agreement of Purchase and Sale dated June 9, 2003, and further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Agreement of Purchase and Sale dated June 30, 2003, that certain Third Amendment to Agreement of Purchase and Sale dated July 23, 2003, that certain Fourth Amendment to Agreement of Purchase and Sale dated August 29, 2003, that certain Fifth Amendment to Agreement of Purchase and Sale dated September 30, 2003, that certain Sixth Amendment to Agreement of Purchase and Sale dated October 31, 2003, and those certain extension letters between Patricia D. Elliott, Esq. on behalf of Buyer and Wendy G. Glenn, Esq. on behalf of Seller dated November 7, 2003 and November 11, 2003 (the "AGREEMENT"), which affects the property ("PROPERTY") commonly known as 301 Industrial Way, designated San Mateo County Assessor's Parcel No. 046-051-020 and 046-051-070. Capitalized terms not defined in this Seventh Amendment shall have the meaning given to them in the Agreement. 2. Feasibility Period. The Agreement provides that the End of the Feasibility Period shall be 5:00 PM Pacific Time on November 12, 2003. Buyer has requested additional time to agree with Seller on the Remediation Plan and the Demolition Plan and (a) file and pursue an application to the City of San Carlos seeking a future change of the City General Plan, Specific Plan, zoning and use permit for the development by Buyer of the Property as a medical/hospital facility (collectively, the "ENTITLEMENTS"), and (b) obtain preliminary approval of the Regional Water Quality Control Board to the Remediation Plan before depositing the Additional Deposit. Seller is willing to agree to extensions relating to those conditions, on the terms of this Seventh Amendment, provided that Buyer agrees that all conditions to be satisfied prior to the end of the Feasibility Period have been satisfied or waived subject to the provisions of this Seventh Amendment. 3. Buyer's Approval Notice and Seller's Approval Notice. The parties agree that for all purposes under the Agreement, the Feasibility Period has ended and all conditions to have been satisfied prior to the end of the Feasibility Period have been satisfied or waived; provided however, that this Seventh Amendment specifies additional or extended conditions. Buyer hereby gives Buyer's Approval Notice as to all matters other than those matters described in Sections 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 herein. No further Buyer's Approval Notice is required as a condition to Buyer's obligations under the Agreement. Section 4.02 of the Agreement relating to the Seller's Approval Notice shall be modified by deleting the phrase 1 "prior to the end of the Feasibility Period" in the 14th and 17th lines of the Section and replacing it with the phrase "prior to February 27, 2004" in each instance. 4. Deposit. Section 2.03A of the Agreement is modified as follows: A. Initial Deposit. The Initial Deposit ($200,000, plus accrued interest) shall be released to Seller by Escrow Holder and shall hereafter be non-refundable, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Agreement. It is expressly agreed that the failure of any condition to Buyer's obligations under the Agreement, including without limitation the failure of the City of San Carlos to approve or indicate approval of the Application (defined below), the RWQCB Preliminary Approval or the parties to agree on the Remediation and Demolition Plan shall not entitle Buyer to a refund of the Initial Deposit. B. Second Deposit. On February 17, 2004, unless Buyer has terminated this Agreement as provided in Section 7 below, Buyer shall deposit with Escrow Holder the sum of $1,000,000 (the "SECOND DEPOSIT"), which Escrow Holder shall deposit into an interest-bearing account. C. Additional Deposit. Within five (5) business days of obtaining the RWQCB Preliminary Approval, the Additional Deposit (i.e., sufficient funds to bring the total of the Initial Deposit, the Second Deposit and the Additional Deposit to $17,500,000) shall be deposited by Buyer with Escrow Holder into an interest-bearing account. D. Deposit Note and Deed of Trust. The form of the Deposit Deed of Trust is attached hereto and incorporated herein as EXHIBIT D. E. Full Deposit. The "FULL DEPOSIT" shall mean the Initial Deposit, the Second Deposit and the Additional Deposit. The "EXISTING FIRST DEED OF TRUST" means the Deed of Trust recorded December 22, 2000 as document number 2000-162764 in San Mateo County official records for the benefit of Wells Fargo Bank, a National Association, and securing payment of a promissory note in the original principal amount of $18,000,000, or any replacement deed of trust. If upon the deposit by Buyer of the Additional Deposit, the funds on deposit with Escrow Holder are insufficient to satisfy the Existing First Deed of Trust, Seller shall deposit with Escrow Holder any required funds, including without limitation any portion of the Full Deposit previously released to Seller pursuant to the Agreement, as amended hereby, necessary to satisfy the Existing First Deed of Trust. If there is no Existing First Deed of Trust, the Full Deposit shall be released to Seller upon recordation of the Deposit Deed of Trust. 5. Close of Escrow. Section 3.03A of the Agreement is modified to provide that the "OUTSIDE CLOSING DATE" shall be the date twenty-four (24) months after the Additional Deposit is deposited with Escrow Holder by Buyer. Section 3.03B of the Agreement is modified to provide that all three possible Closing Extension Periods may be exercised by Seller if Seller has been unable to complete Seller's obligations under the Agreement, as modified hereby, prior to the Outside Closing Date. 6. Remediation Plan and Demolition Plan. Buyer and Seller shall have until November 25, 2003 to agree on the Remediation Plan and the Demolition Plan, in their 2 discretion, it being understood that Seller's agreement shall be subject to obtaining, to Seller's reasonable satisfaction, Varian's approval, as provided in the Agreement as amended hereby. Section 4.01C, Section 4.02B and Section 7.02 of the Agreement shall be modified by replacing the phrase "Prior to the end of the Feasibility Period" with "Prior to November 25, 2003". Section 7.01 shall be modified by replacing the phrase "During the Feasibility Period" with "Prior to November 25, 2003". In the event the parties do not agree on the Remediation Plan and/or Demolition Plan by November 25, 2003, either party may elect to terminate the Agreement by providing written notice of such termination to the other and to Escrow Holder, whereupon the Agreement shall terminate, except for Buyer's obligations under Sections 4.01A and 8.15 of the Agreement. 7. Application for Zoning Change. Buyer will submit, on or before December 15, 2003, an application to the City of San Carlos for a future zoning change to permit a medical/hospital facility to be developed on the Property ("APPLICATION") and use its commercially reasonable efforts to determine the City of San Carlos' intent to approve and grant the Entitlements. Seller, through its specifically authorized representatives, will be supportive of the Application (once approved by Seller) in any contacts with representatives of the City and Seller's employees. Seller, through its specifically authorized representatives, will express in writing to the City if reasonably necessary, Seller's desire that the Application be approved. Seller shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of the Application (subject to obtaining Varian's approval). Buyer and Seller hereby waive the provisions of Section 8.15 of the Agreement with respect to the filing of the Application. If on or before February 17, 2004, the City of San Carlos has not indicated its support of the Application to Buyer's satisfaction, this condition shall be deemed to have not been satisfied. If the City of San Carlos either has failed to indicate its support of the Application to Buyer's satisfaction or has indicated that it does not intend to approve the Application, Buyer may terminate the Agreement (except for Buyer's obligations under Sections 4.01A and 8.15 of the Agreement) upon written notice to Seller and Escrow Holder given on or before February 17, 2004. If Buyer does not so elect to terminate the Agreement, Buyer shall deliver the Second Deposit. Notwithstanding anything herein, prior to the Close of Escrow, Buyer shall not cause the current designation/permitted uses of the Property to change or any imposition or restriction to be imposed on the Property or Seller. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to modify Buyer's obligations under the Agreement, including without limitation those obligations set forth in Section 4.01A(4) of the Agreement. For the purposes of this Section 7, Seller's specifically authorized representatives shall mean O. Joe Caldarelli, Robert Fickett, Joel Littman and Mike Cheng. 8. RWQCB Preliminary Approval.

Seller shall have no obligation to relieve Varian of any of its obligations owed to Seller or its affiliates, to pay any monies to Varian or to incur any 3 other liability or obligation to Varian in order to obtain Varian's approval of the Remedial Action Plan. The parties agree that it is not necessary or even desirable to obtain a written response from RWQCB, although the parties agree that Seller shall submit a written confirmation letter to RWQCB following the meeting in collaboration with Buyer. Buyer's environmental consultant, Northgate, shall be present at the RWQCB meeting, shall observe and not take any active participation unless otherwise agreed in advance by Buyer and Seller, and shall be publicly supportive of the Remedial Action Plan. If the Second Deposit has been made and the RWQCB Preliminary Approval is obtained (Varian's approval of the Remedial Action Plan having been obtained), the Second Deposit shall be non-refundable and Buyer shall promptly deposit the Additional Deposit as described above.

If Buyer does not so elect to terminate the Agreement, Seller may at any time elect to terminate the Agreement (except for Buyer's obligations under Sections 4.01A and 8.15 of the Agreement) upon written notice to Buyer and Escrow Holder, whereupon the Second Deposit shall be refunded to Buyer. 9.

The parties hereto may execute this Seventh Amendment simultaneously, in any number of counterparts, and/or upon facsimile copies, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but which together, shall constitute one and the same Seventh Amendment. Each party shall be entitled to rely upon the facsimile signature of the other party. [Signatures on next page.] 4 In witness whereof, the parties have executed this Seventh Amendment.

The Agreement provides that the End of the Feasibility Period shall have ended on January 30, 2004. Since that time, Buyer and Seller have been negotiating to satisfy Buyer's and Seller's conditions to the purchase of the Purchase Property by Buyer. Those conditions have been addressed by the parties as provided in this Ninth Amendment. Accordingly, the Feasibility Period has terminated and Buyer agrees to proceed with the purchase of the Purchase Property on the terms of the Agreement, as modified by this Ninth Amendment.. 3. Buyer's Approval Notice and Seller's Approval Notice. The parties agree that for all purposes under the Agreement, the Feasibility Period has ended and all conditions to have been satisfied prior to the end of the Feasibility Period have been satisfied or waived; Buyer hereby gives Buyer's Approval Notice as to all matters other than the approval of the RWQCB as provided in Section 11 herein. No further Buyer's Approval Notice is required 1 as a condition to Buyer's obligations under the Agreement, except as provided in Section 11 herein. 4. Purchase Price.

It is expressly agreed that the failure of any condition to Buyer's obligations under the Agreement, including without limitation the failure to obtain the RWQCB approval described in Section 11 of this Ninth Amendment shall not entitle Buyer to a refund of the Second Deposit, or the Initial Deposit. Upon Closing, the Initial Deposit and Second Deposit shall be credited against the Purchase Price. B. Additional Deposit. In lieu of the Additional Deposit described in the Seventh Amendment, within five (5) business days of obtaining the RWQCB Approval, Twelve Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($12,500,000) shall be delivered to Seller, outside of Escrow, but with full credit as a deposit in Escrow, as the Additional Deposit (i.e., for a Full Deposit of Twelve Million Nine Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($12,950,000)).

BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX ACTUAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM SUCH DEFAULT, DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS TRANSACTION AND THE UNIQUE NATURE OF THE PURCHASE PROPERTY, AND THAT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLER'S DAMAGES IN SUCH EVENT IS THE FULL DEPOSIT ($12,950,000.00), IN VIEW OF, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS 2 UNDERTAKEN BY SELLER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE ENVIRONMENTAL AGREEMENT AND OTHER AGREEMENTS WITH VARIAN AND/OR RELATED TO RELOCATING SELLER'S BUSINESS OPERATIONS) AND SELLER'S AGREEMENT TO ACCEPT A LIQUIDATED SUM IN LIEU OF ITS REMEDY OF SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT LIQUIDATED DAMAGES ARE PARTICULARLY APPROPRIATE FOR THIS TRANSACTION AND AGREE THAT SAID LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SHALL BE PAID IN THE EVENT OF BUYER'S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE PURCHASE PROPERTY, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT. THE PAYMENT OF SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 3275 OR 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677. NOTHING IN THIS PROVISION SHALL, HOWEVER, BE DEEMED TO LIMIT BUYER'S LIABILITY TO SELLER FOR DAMAGES OR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF FOR BREACH OF BUYER'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 4.01A (INDEMNITY RE: BUYER'S ACTIVITIES AT THE PROPERTY) OR SECTION 8.07 (ATTORNEYS' FEES).

Memorandum of Agreement. Section 2.05 of the Agreement is modified to provide that simultaneously with delivery of the Additional Deposit to Seller, Seller and Buyer shall execute a Memorandum of the Agreement which shall be recorded.

Buyer shall deposit with Escrow Holder an executed (in recordable form) Termination of Buyer's Rights under the Agreement to be held by Escrow Holder and recorded in the event the Agreement is terminated as a result of Buyer's default. 8. Buyer's Remedies. Section 2.07 of the Agreement is modified to provide that in the event of Seller's default under the Agreement, Buyer shall have the remedy of specific performance, in addition to its right to terminate its obligations under the Agreement. These remedies shall be exclusive and only one such remedy may be elected by Buyer.

Close of Escrow. Sections 3.03A of the Agreement is modified to provide that the "OUTSIDE CLOSING DATE" shall be the date twenty four (24) months after the Additional Deposit is delivered to Seller by Buyer.

In the event the Outside Closing Date is so extended by Seller, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) for each month the Closing is extended beyond the Outside Closing Date, prorated on a daily basis for any portion of the extension period which is less than one full month. Similarly, if Seller provides Buyer notice that it has vacated the Property in compliance with Sections 7.01 and 7.02 of the Agreement, as modified by this Ninth Amendment, prior to the Outside Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall be increased by One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) for each month prior to the Outside Closing Date that the Closing occurs, prorated on a daily basis for any portion of the period which is less than one full month. 10. Seller's Failure to Comply. Section 3.03.C of the Agreement is modified to provide that a "REPAYMENT EVENT" shall mean only that Seller has failed to vacate the Purchase Property and deliver the Grant Deed in accordance with the Agreement, as modified by this Ninth Amendment. 11. Environmental Agreement.

The Environmental Agreement provides that the RAP will be submitted to the Regional Water Quality Control Board for the San Francisco Bay area ("RWQCB") for its approval. Buyer agrees to comply or cause the applicable party to comply with the obligations to timely submit the RAP and seek the approval of the RWQCB to such RAP and Prospective Purchaser Agreement. In the event that the approval of the RAP by the RWQCB is not obtained within 120 days of the effective date of the Environmental Agreement, and for no other reason, Buyer may, by prompt (two business days) written notice to Seller and Escrow Holder, terminate its obligation to purchase the Purchase Property under the Agreement, and the parties to the Agreement shall have no further obligations under the Agreement, except Buyer's obligations under Sections 4.01A and 8.15 of the Agreement. Without limiting the provisions of the Agreement as modified by this Ninth Amendment, Buyer expressly acknowledges to Seller that no change in circumstance (including with regard to the status of entitlements for redevelopment of the Purchase Property), other than a failure of an express condition set forth in the Agreement as modified by this Ninth Amendment, shall entitle Buyer to terminate its obligations under the Agreement. 12.
