PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

 

THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of this November 5, 2004, by and between MENTOR GRAPHICS CORPORATION, an Oregon corporation, whose address is 8005 SW Boeckman Road, Wilsonville, Oregon 97070 (“Seller”), and FLIR SYSTEMS, INC., an Oregon corporation, whose address is 16505 SW 72nd Avenue, Portland, Oregon 97224 (“Buyer”).

 

For valuable consideration, including the covenants, terms and conditions set forth below, Seller and Buyer have agreed as follows:

 

1. Sale and Purchase of Property. Seller agrees to sell to Buyer, and Buyer agrees to buy, the real property located at 27700 SW Parkway Avenue, in the City of Wilsonville, County of Clackamas, State of Oregon, and more particularly described on Exhibit “A” attached hereto, including any and all improvements located thereon, all easements, and all other rights of every nature appurtenant to such real property owned by Seller (collectively, the “Property”).

 

2. Price; Earnest Money; Payment. The purchase price for the Property and the Personal Property shall be the sum of Ten Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($10,250,000.00) (the “Purchase Price”). Upon full execution of this Agreement, Buyer shall deposit the fully executed Agreement and the amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($250,000.00) as earnest money with the Title Company designated in Section 4 below (the “Earnest Money”). The date of such deposit shall be the “Effective Date.” After the Approval Date, as hereafter defined, the Title Company shall hold the cash non-refundable earnest money until Closing. The balance of the Purchase Price shall be paid in cash at Closing (as defined in Section 5.1 below).

 

3. Buyer’s Inspection and Approval Rights. Within ten (10) days after the Effective Date, Seller shall provide Buyer with copies of the materials listed on Exhibit “B”, collectively the “Documents”). Buyer shall have until December 15, 2004 (the “Approval Date”) to (i) review the Documents; (ii) review all governmental restrictions applicable to the Property (including zoning restrictions); (iii) at reasonable times after reasonable prior written notice to Seller (and after prior notice to the tenant of the Property if required by the tenant’s Lease), inspect the structural, roof, mechanical and electrical components of the Property and have a qualified environmental consultant inspect the Property and report as to the condition thereof; (iv) obtain financing in amounts and terms which are satisfactory to Buyer; and (v) determine that the Property is otherwise satisfactory to Buyer. Buyer hereby indemnifies, protects, holds harmless and defends Seller from all liens, costs, judgments, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and experts’ fees, arising from or relating to Buyer’s entry and inspection of the Property. The time between the Effective Date and the Approval Date shall be referred to herein as the “Approval Period.” Entry and inspection of the Property by Buyer, employees, contractors, agents and persons whom Buyer has otherwise authorized to enter and/or inspect the Property shall be deemed entry and inspection of the Property by Buyer for purposes of this Section 3. This agreement to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Seller shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement. Buyer shall obtain, or cause its consultants or agents who enter upon and inspect the Property to obtain, public liability insurance policies with


an insurer and in an amount reasonably satisfactory to Seller insuring against claims arising from or relating to Buyer’s entry and inspection of the Property. Buyer shall deliver to Seller insurance certificates (on ACORD Form 25) naming Seller as an additional insured and reflecting the coverage required in this Section 3. Buyer shall conduct all its required Property inspections in a manner that is not disruptive to the tenants or the operation of the Property.

 

During the Approval Period, Seller shall make all of its records pertaining to the ownership and operation of the Property reasonably available to Buyer for its review and inspection. If Buyer is not satisfied, in its sole discretion, with the results of its inspections and determinations, Buyer may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller given at any time on or before the Approval Date, and in such event the Earnest Money shall then be returned to Buyer and neither party shall have any further obligation to the other, except as may be otherwise expressly provided hereunder. If Buyer fails to give such notice of termination, all of the conditions set forth in this Section 3 shall be deemed to have been waived by Buyer. Copies of any reports commissioned by Buyer shall be delivered to Seller.

 

4. Preliminary Title Report. Within ten (10) days after full execution of this Agreement, Seller shall furnish to Buyer at Seller’s expense a preliminary title report issued by Chicago Title Insurance Company with an address of 888 SW Fifth Avenue, Suite 930, Portland, Oregon 97204 (the “Title Company”) showing the condition of title to the Property (the “Title Report”). The Title Report shall include copies of all title exceptions. Buyer shall have ten (10) days from its receipt of the Title Report to review the Title Report and ten (10) days from receipt of the partition plat to review the partition plat and in each case send Seller written notice rejecting any items reflected in the Title Report or on the partition plat, as the case may be. If Buyer rejects any item, Seller shall have five (5) days thereafter to determine whether it is willing and able to remove the exceptions, and to deliver to Buyer an amended Title Report or other satisfactory written evidence of the removal of such exception from the Title Report or agree to have any item on the partition plat removed. Those exceptions approved by Buyer and all Leases in respect to which Estoppel Certificates consistent with Section 5.2 have been issued are hereinafter referred to as the “Permitted Exceptions.” If Seller fails within that period to remove or agree to remove any exception to which Buyer has objected, Buyer may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, and the Earnest Money shall then be returned to Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be obligated to satisfy, on or before the Closing Date (as defined in Section 5.1 below), any exception created, or suffered to be created by Seller that is security for payment of a sum of money (including mortgages, trust deeds, contractor’s liens and judgment liens).

 

5. Closing.
