PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS. Seller is the owner of fee simple title to the real property located at 1902 North Black Canyon Highway, Phoenix, Arizona, legally described on Exhibit A, attached hereto (the “Property”). As used herein, the term “Property” also includes all land, improvements and fixtures situated thereon, and all easements and other appurtenances in favor of or benefiting any part thereof. Purchaser desires to purchase and Seller is willing to sell the Property, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and such other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings specified herein.

2. Purchase and Sale. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Closing, and in exchange for the Purchase Price, Purchaser shall purchase and Seller shall sell, transfer and convey to Purchaser, all of Seller’s entire right, title and interest in and to the Property.

3. Purchase Price; Payment and Financing. The total consideration to be paid to Seller by Purchaser at the Closing for the Property (the “Purchase Price”) shall consist of and be paid as follows:

(a) Purchaser shall deposit with Stewart Title (the “Escrow Agent”) the sum of Two Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($200,000.00), in cash, or by wire transfer of immediately available funds (the “Closing Payment”) and the Escrow Agent shall remit the Closing Payment to Seller.

(b) Purchaser shall execute and deliver to Seller’s parent corporation, VCG Holding Corp., a Colorado corporation, a Secured Promissory Note in the amount of Three Hundred Twenty-Two Thousand Nine Hundred Sixty-Three and 16/100 Dollars ($322,963.16) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “$300,000 Note”).

(c) Purchaser shall assume all of Seller’s rights, obligations and responsibilities existing as of the Closing Date in, to and under the Secured Promissory Note, dated May 1, 2003, in the original principal amount of Two Million Four Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,400,000.00) (the “Sacred Ground Note”) issued by Seller to Sacred Ground Resources, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (“Sacred Ground”), and agrees to be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Sacred Ground Note and that Purchaser shall be considered “Maker” under the Sacred Ground Note. Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any obligations on the part of Purchaser arising from and after the Closing and from all liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred in connection with the Sacred Ground Note.

4. Title Insurance. Seller has delivered to Purchaser a current commitment for title insurance (on an ALTA form), issued by the Escrow Agent which shows marketable fee simple title to the Property in Seller. Any exceptions or other matters listed on the title commitment to which Purchaser has not objected to in writing to Seller on or before the Closing shall be deemed “Permitted Exceptions.” Additionally, Purchaser agrees that that certain Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement made May 1, 2003 by and among the Company, as trustor, Transnation Title Insurance Company, as trustee, and Sacred Ground Resources, L.L.C., as beneficiary, shall be considered a Permitted Exception.

5. Entry Prior to Closing. Purchaser and its employees, agents, and consultants will have the right, upon prior notice to Seller, to enter upon the Property at reasonable times prior to Closing to inspect, examine, survey, perform physical and environmental non-invasive tests, and otherwise do whatever Purchaser deems necessary or appropriate to investigate any matter which Purchaser deems appropriate in order to evaluate the Property. Purchaser agrees that Purchaser and its agents and consultants will not disrupt or interfere with Seller’s operations during Purchaser’s inspection of the Property. All physical inspections of and/or on site visits to the Property must be scheduled through Seller. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in conducting the foregoing activities. Purchaser shall not cause or permit any mechanic’s liens, materialmen’s liens, or other liens to be filed against the Property as a result of the inspections. Purchaser shall promptly repair and restore any damage to the Property caused by entry upon the Property by Purchaser. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Seller and Seller’s officers, directors, shareholders, customers, invitees, members, partners, tenants, agents, and employees (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all actions, losses, costs, damages, claims, liabilities, and expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) brought, sought, or incurred by or against any of the Indemnified Parties resulting from, arising out of, or relating to, entry upon the Property Purchaser caused by the gross negligent or intentional misconduct of Purchaser or its agents. Anything to the contrary recited herein, the foregoing indemnification and repair and restoration obligations shall expressly survive the Closing.

13. Costs and Expenses. Seller agrees to pay one-half of the escrow fee and the cost of an ALTA standard coverage owner’s policy of title insurance, on the standard form in an insured amount equal to the Purchase Price (the “Title Policy”). Purchase agrees to pay the cost of any endorsements to the Title Policy requested by Purchaser. Each Party agrees to pay its own attorneys’ fees.

14. Prorations. Real estate taxes on the Property for the year of the Closing shall be prorated through the date of Closing. If such taxes are not known at Closing, then the parties agree to prorate real estate taxes for the year of Closing based on the 2008 real estate tax amount.

For purposes of this Section 18, “a substantial portion of the Property” shall mean such portion of the Property whose taking would make the remaining portion of the Property unsuitable or uneconomical in Purchaser’s reasonable business judgment for its intended use for the Property. In the event that such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings involve the taking of less than a substantial portion of the Property, then Purchaser shall have no right to terminate this Agreement, but at the Closing, Seller shall pay over or assign to Purchaser the proceeds of any award made to or received by, or which may be made to or received by, Seller in such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings and all of Seller’s rights thereto.
