for bathrooms and lobbies as per Section Three. Within the common areas of Building 1 there are exclusive or restrictive common areas, which shall be defined as the exclusive common areas of Building 1 in the Condominium CC&Rs as described in Exhibit D (labeled in Spanish as “Area comun de uso restringido”) (herein the “Exclusive Common Areas”), of approximate 550.00 sq. m., herein “Building 1”:

Level 1: 2 condominium units and approximate 1,562.00 sq. m.
Level 2: 2 condominium units and approximate 1,732.00 sq. m.
Level 3: 2 condominium units and approximate 1,918.00 sq. m.

Level 5: 2 condominium units and approximate 1,918.00 sq. m.
Level 6: 2 condominium units and approximate 1,465.00 sq. m.

The areas indicated above for each level, include only the approximate area of the Condominium Units and the Exclusive Common Areas.

Building 1 excludes the common areas located therein that are referred to as electromechanical pipelines, emergency stairs, vertical interventions, and elevators, as well, as any other area that is not being designated as Exclusive Common Areas in the Condominium declaration or the Condominium CC&Rs, and that are located within Building 1. Nonetheless, no other condominium owner shall have access to Building 1 and BBC shall deliver Building 1 including all such common areas.
 
Second: Purchase and Sale of Building 1. Align hereby agrees to purchase Building 1 from BBC, and BBC agrees to sell Building 1 to Align for the Purchase Price (as defined below), subject to the terms and conditions contained in this PSA.

The properties being transferred at Closing (as defined below) shall be the Condominium Units, and, so, the Purchase Price shall be distributed proportionally among the Condominium Units.

The sale of Building 1 to Align shall consist of: (i) transfer of title and ownership over the Condominium Units, (ii) transfer of an undivided interest in the Project common elements of the Condominium, (iii) exclusive use of all Exclusive Common Areas duly approved by the Condominium Owners Assembly, and (v) exclusive use of 421 vehicle parking spaces, that shall be duly approved by the Condominium Owners Assembly. If the vehicle parking spaces are used to park motorcycles, at Align´s sole discretion, the ratio at all times shall be 4:1. The exclusive use of the Exclusive Common Areas shall be duly established in the Condominium CC&Rs and such Condominium CC&Rs shall include a provision by virtue of which the rights granted to any condominium owner to exclusively use of any common areas may only be revoked or

psaalignsabc_image1a01.jpg


modified upon the majority vote of the condominium owners and such majority vote shall include the affirmative vote of the condominium owner whose right is being modified or revoked. Eighty (80) vehicle parking spaces shall be located within the basements of Building 1 and Building 2 (64 in Building 1 and 16 in Building 2), fully assigned to Align; fifty (50) vehicle parking spaces shall be located within the plaza next to Building 1 and, none of such parking spaces shall include visitors’ parking spaces or disabled parking spaces required by law. The other vehicle parking spaces shall be located on the parking building located within the Project. In the event the location of the vehicle parking spaces is not available, totally or partially, on the Closing due to the development and construction of the other buildings within the Project, BBC shall ensure that Align has access to 421 vehicle parking within the Project spaces at all times. The location of any temporary spaces shall be assigned by BBC in the parking building or in Building 3 location and approved by Align prior to the termination of the Due Diligence Period.

Parties agree that if Align requires additional parking spaces within the Project (“Additional Parking Spaces”), they can be leased from BBC, subject to availability, at a monthly rate per parking space. The monthly rate per parking space shall be defined by the fair market monthly rate for parking spaces in buildings or projects in the same category as the Project (A and/or A+ buildings), but at no time could be less than $100.00 Dollars, currency of the United States of America (“Dollars”), per parking space per month (the “Lease Rate”). The Lease Rate for the Additional Parking Spaces shall have a 3% yearly escalation/increase; however, in no event the monthly Lease Rate shall exceed (i) $150.00 Dollars per space or (ii) the rate granted to any other tenant or occupant of the Project by BBC (the “Maximum Lease Rate”). The Maximum Lease Rate shall be applicable for a term of 10 years, after such term the Lease Rate shall be defined to the fair market monthly rate for parking spaces in buildings or projects in the same category as the Project (A and/or A+ buildings).

Align acknowledges and accepts that Building 1 is under construction and, therefore, the indicated measurements for the Condominium Units and the Exclusive Common Areas may vary. The Purchase Price shall not vary if the total area is reduced or increased in 2%. Prior to Closing (as defined herein) and once construction of Building 1 finishes, BBC shall deliver to Align a copy of the topographical surveys of Building 1 indicating the resulting measurement of the private area of the Condominium Units and the Exclusive Common Areas (“Maps”). In the event that the total measurement of Building 1 (comprised by the private area of the Condominium Units plus the Exclusive Common Areas measurements) varies in more than 2%, the Purchase Price (as defined below) shall be adjusted using the following formula: $2,485.00 Dollars per sq. m., the “Adjusted Purchase Price”. The communication by which BBC sends copy of the Maps to Align shall include the indication of the resulting Adjusted Purchase Price (if applicable). The standard to be used for the measurement of Building 1 is BOMA. Align shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to perform measurements to Building 1; in the event the final measurement performed by Align, following the BOMA standard, does not match the final measurement in the Maps, the Parties agree to appoint a third


Central America

psaalignsabc_image1a01.jpg


party to verify the final measurement following the BOMA standard. BBC shall appoint ICICOR, COCOSA, provided (i) none of these companies have been hired by BBC or its affiliates in direct connection to the Project and (ii) none of these companies have been hired by the parties or its affiliates on a recurrent basis during the past 12 months, or any other third party as agreed between the Parties (the “Third Party”) to proceed with the third measurement, which shall prevail for purposes of establishing the Adjusted Purchase Price. The Third Party shall have 10 business days following the notice by BBC to proceed with the measurement. All costs and fees related with the Third Party shall be borne equally between the Parties.

Third: Purchase Price. The purchase price of the Building 1 is the sum of TWENTY-SIX MILLION ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FOUR THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED AND FIVE DOLLARS ($26,124,805.00) (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price shall be paid in accordance with the following schedule:

(a)
Initial Payment: within 5 business days upon the execution of this PSA by all Parties, Align shall pay and deposit in an interest-bearing escrow account (“Escrow Account”) with STCR (COSTA RICA) TRUST AND ESCROW COMPANY LIMITED, S.A. (“Escrow Agent”) 20% of the Purchase Price, for an amount of $5,224,961.00 Dollars (the “Initial Payment”). The Initial Payment shall be fully refundable during Due Diligence Period (as defined herein).

(b)
Second Payment: 60% of the Purchase Price, equals to $15,674,803.00 Dollars, shall be paid and deposited by Align in the Escrow Account with the Escrow Agent within 7 business days after the notification by BBC of the Substantial Completion of Building 1 (“Substantial Completion Notice”). Substantial Completion of Building 1 shall mean the completion of Building 1 as described in Exhibit E in more than 95% and that none of the pending issues or items imply any delays for additional constructions and improvements, and, so, the only pending matters or items shall be considered as part of the Punch List. Substantial Completion shall be completed by BBC no later than October 23, 2017, except if extended due to a justified cause, by mutual agreement of the Parties or as indicated in clause fifth of this PSA. Align shall have thirty (30) calendar days after the Substantial Completion Notice to determine if it is not in agreement with the Substantial Completion of Building 1, no response by Align during said term shall be deemed as an approval of the Substantial Completion. If the Substantial Completion is not accepted by Align within the said term, BBC shall appoint any of the Third Party to issue criteria determining if Building 1 is in Substantial Completion or not in accordance with this PSA. The Third Party shall have 15 business days following the notice by BBC to proceed with the measurement. All costs and fees related with the Third Party shall be borne equally between the Parties. If the Substantial Completion is rejected by Align within the thirty (30) calendar days indicated, the second payment shall be suspended until the Substantial Completion is determined by the Third Party.

Third Party’s approval of the Substantial Completion of Building 1 shall be notified to the Parties, and the second payment shall be made by Align within the following five (5) business days.

(c)
Final Payment: the outstanding balance of the Purchase Price or the Adjusted Purchase Price, as applicable, shall be paid and deposited by Align in the Escrow Account with the Escrow Agent within 5 business days after the Closing Notice (as defined herein), provided, however, that such Closing Notice may not be delivered before the Condominium is duly incorporated and the Condominium Units have their corresponding property number.

Parties agree to discount from the Purchase Price an amount of $371,855.00 Dollars, as Align shall take the responsibility to remodel the bathrooms and lobbies of Building 1. The discount shall be applicable to the Final Payment.

At Closing, all sums paid and deposited by Align in the Escrow Account, with all accrued interests, shall be paid and disbursed to BBC.

All escrow, stamp taxes and other closing costs shall be split equally between the Parties, except that each Party shall pay its corresponding attorney’s fees, incurred by in negotiating this PSA. Align shall designate the Notary Public to grant the transfer public deed of the corresponding Condominium Units comprising Building 1. All bank commissions shall be bear solely by Align. As a result of the FTZ benefits that both Align and BBC enjoy, the property transfer tax will not be applicable; nonetheless, in the event any party losses such benefit, payment of the applicable property transfer tax shall be paid exclusively by such party.

All sums set forth in this PSA shall be paid in Dollars and no adjustment to such amounts shall be made in the event that such amounts, as measured in Costa Rican currency, fluctuates due to changes in currency exchange rates or any other reasons.

Fourth: Due Diligence Period. Align shall have until midnight (Costa Rican time) of August 15, 2017 to make studies and investigations as deemed necessary, including the verification of the physical condition of the Property (the “Due Diligence Period”). Align’s purchase of Building 1 is contingent upon Align’s approval of Building 1 and its title, in Align’s sole and absolute discretion, on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period. Within the Due Diligence Period, Align is entitled to unilaterally terminate the PSA by sending notice to BBC and the Escrow Agent, and request the Escrow Agent the reimbursement of all sums deposited in the Escrow Account, with all accrued interests, and, thus, BBC shall be released from this PSA.

In the Due Diligence Period, BBC shall provide Align with the following documentation:

(h)
Any other document as reasonably requested by Align’s legal counsel. Provided, however, that BBC shall not be obligated to disclose information that is subject to existing non-disclosure obligations.

All the information detailed herein shall be provided as soon as possible but no later than July 30, 2017; any delays upon this date shall automatically extend the Due Diligence Period on the same days as delayed by BBC. During the Due Diligence Period and until Closing or termination of this PSA, Align and its agents, employees and contractors shall be permitted to enter the Property to perform studies and examinations as Align may deemed necessary to determine the sustainability of the Building 1 to Align’s purposes and the physical, environmental and legal condition of the Property, following the procedure and terms establish in clause sixth of this PSA. All due diligence activities shall be borne solely by Align.

In the event that any due diligence activities cause a physical disturbance to the Project, Align, at its sole expense, shall promptly restore the Project to its pre-due diligence activities condition. Align shall indemnify BBC for any loss, cost or damage incurred or suffered as a result of any entry on the Project or Building 1 by Align, its affiliated companies, agents, directors, employees or contractors.

After the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, if Align terminates the PSA for any reason other than BBC’s default under this PSA, Align shall forfeit a portion of the Initial Payment equal to 10% of the Purchase Price and its accrued interests as sole compensation to BBC for Align’s termination, Escrow Agent shall reimburse all other sums to Align, and the Parties shall be released from the PSA. Escrow Agent shall disburse the funds within 3 business days following the corresponding notice by BBC and evidence of early termination by Align.

If Align fails to deliver notice of its approval of the due diligence on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then this PSA shall be deemed terminated, all deposits in the Escrow Account, with all accrued interests, shall be reimbursed to Align, and Parties shall be released from this PSA.

Align acknowledges and accepts that the Condominium Units shall be transferred with the easements recorded at the book 322, entry 14575; book 393, entry 12557; book 449, entry 07885; book 449, entry 12687; book 555, entry 15026; and any other easements required for the common services of the Project (included, but not limited to, telecommunications, potable water, rainy water, among others) and required by government authorities or institutions to subject the Property to the Condominium Regimen. Nonetheless, BBC represents that such easements in no way affect the proper usage of Building 1.

Fifth: Construction of Building 1. Align acknowledges that it has reviewed and approved the floor plans, attached hereto as Exhibit D, as well as the designs and building specifications for the Building 1, all of which are detailed and attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Building Specs”), prior to the execution of this PSA. The floor plans and the Building Specs shall collectively be referred to as the “Final Designs”. Align acknowledges and agrees that any changes requested to the Final Designs may result in an increased Purchase Price and that it could impact the proposed date for delivery of the Building 1 under this PSA. Align shall be the sole responsible to remodel Building 1, as it deems necessary, after the Closing for its operation, following the regulations established in the Condominium CC&Rs. BBC accepts that, upon Closing, Align shall construct a full-service kitchen in Building 1 for its employees’ use; for such purposes, the Parties shall work together to identify an appropriate temporary loading dock that will be located near Building 1, and, if necessary, a freight elevator for such kitchen, but the location and design shall be approved previously by BBC or the Condominium (as applicable). Additionally, the Project will have a permanent loading dock (located between Building 2 and 3).

BBC shall use its best efforts to construct and complete Building 1 following the construction schedule attached hereto as Exhibit F on or before January 02, 2018 (“Building Completion Date”) and in substantial compliance with the Final Design. The Building Completion Date may be extended in the event that the construction and completion of the Building is delayed for any reasons beyond BBC’s control, due to Acts of God, Force Majeure and/or acts or omissions attributable to Align, its directors, agents, personnel and contractors, including, but not limited to, flood, drought, storm, fire, explosion, labor strikes, civil unrest, insurrection, government action, or other causes not attributable to BBC, then BBC may extend the Building Completion Date by the time lost due to such delays. Align hereby accepts the uncertainty of the Building Completion Date and waives any and all claims against BBC as a result of BBC’s inability to complete Building 1 by the Building Completion Date for reasons beyond BBC’s control. Reasons beyond BBC´s control shall include any delays due or caused by institutional processes that must be carried out for the


Central America
 
www.blplegal.com

9 of 9
psaalignsabc_image1a01.jpg


construction of Building 1 and the incorporation of the Condominium provided that BBC followed the processes diligently.

In the event of a delay in the Building Completion Date and/or Closing attributable to BBC, BBC will be granted a thirty (30) day grace period and upon expiration of such grace period:

(i)
If the delay in the Building Completion Date and/or Closing is related to the construction of Building 1, Align shall be entitled to a credit of $26,124,80. Dollars for each day of delay up to a maximum amount of $1,567,488.00 (the “Construction Fine”) applicable to the Purchase Price.  Such amount shall be proportional to the days or weeks of delays, if any. Nonetheless, a delay in the Building Completion that implies a delay in Closing for more than sixty (60) days shall be considered a BBC´s default under section twelfth of this PSA.
(ii)
If the delay in the Building Completion Date and/or Closing is related to processes before institutions or authorities, including, but not limited to, incorporation of the Condominium before the National Registry, provided BBC has acted diligently in all such processes, Align shall be entitled to a credit of $32,483.17 dollars for each month of delay (the “Cam Fine”) applicable to the monthly CAM Fee. BBC, as goodwill and in order to prevent this delay, will appoint a specific person or committee to make sure that the permitting of the construction and the permitting and registration of the Condominium do not delay the Closing. Notwithstanding, a delay in the processes before institutions or authorities that implies a delay in Closing for more than sixty (60) days shall give Align the possibility to terminate unilaterally the PSA and request the reimbursement of all sums deposited in escrow with its accrued interests as the sole indemnity. In such event, Parties shall be released from the PSA and no further obligation shall remain between the Parties. This delay shall not be considered BBC’s default under section twelfth of this PSA.

Align acknowledges that (1) all brochures, illustrations, advertising and marketing materials, displays, plans or any other materials showing or depicting the Project or (2) fixtures, furnishings and interior designs shown in such materials or in the sales models or any other representation of Building 1 or the Project are for illustration only and shall not be an agreement between the Parties to either complete Building 1 or the Project, in accordance with any of such materials or documents unless specifically agreed to in writing by the Parties, except for all Exhibits attached herewith.

The projected square meters, location and configuration of Building 1, the Exclusive Common Areas and, if applicable, the common areas of the Project and all improvements comprising the Building 1 and the Project, may vary from that shown in the Master Plan and/or Floor Plan or any other materials or documents based on BBC’s placement of all such final improvements, except as indicated in all exhibits herewith, which


Central America
 
www.blplegal.com

10 of 10
psaalignsabc_image1a01.jpg


are mandatory including, without limitation: (i) the location, size, height and composition of underground utilities, roads, sidewalks, driveways, walls, fences, or other improvements constituting common area and/or common area improvements to be constructed on or adjacent to the Building 1, or (ii) the location, size, height, or any improvements located or to be located in the common areas. Provided, however, that such variations shall not, in any manner, affect the proper usage of Building 1.

BBC reserves the right, at BBC’s sole discretion, to substitute the type and location of building materials and other items in the Building 1 and Project with material and items of comparable quality and functionality to that shown in the Final Designs and all exhibits herewith. Any such substitutions shall be made at no additional cost to Align and may include, without limitation, electrical outlets and switches, doors and windows, wall surfaces, finishes, and floor coverings. Provided, however, that such variations shall not, in any manner, affect the proper usage of Building 1 and, provided further, that any saving in the total cost of Building 1 shall be split between the Parties, and, therefore, Align shall get a credit on the Purchase Price equivalent to 50% of such saving.

Align acknowledges and accepts that the Project is being developed in phases and, therefore, acknowledges and accepts that while Align is operating, BBC may continue the construction process of the Project. In such event, BBC shall (i) take reasonable and customary preventive measures to avoid disturbance to Align’s operation (e.g. controlling dust, limiting noises to non-working hours, among others), (ii) provide Align and Align’s employees, agents and contractors with safe and secure 24/7 access to the Building 1 and its corresponding vehicle parking spaces and common areas, and (iii) provide separate access to the construction site for the construction personnel, equipment and materials.

Sixth: Entry Prior to Closing. Align acknowledges that control, direction and supervision of all construction personnel at the construction site will lie exclusively with BBC and that Align may not issue any instructions to, request construction modifications from, or otherwise interfere with, construction personnel. However, Align shall be allowed to monitor and inspect the construction of Building 1 at any time and shall have the right, but not the obligation, to access to Building 1 limited to the preliminary preparation works, that is, start the applicable designing and permitting processes for improvements to be performed after Closing, prior written notice to BBC with 3 business days in advance, during the hours set by BBC, and with the presence at all times of BBC or an authorized representative, following the terms established herein. Align acknowledges and accepts that if the inspections materially interfere or disrupt the construction process and causes a delay, BBC shall be released from any responsibility in connection to such interference or disruption and the Building Completion Date and/or Closing could be delayed but not more than the equivalent to the delay caused by such interference or disruption.

psaalignsabc_image1a01.jpg


Any entry on the Project or the Building 1 by Align during construction and prior to the Closing, shall be at Align's own risk, except for negligence or willful misconduct attributable to BBC, its personnel, contractors or representatives, and Align agrees to indemnify, defend and hold BBC, its agents, contractors, officers, directors, shareholders, partners and employees, harmless from and against all claims, demands, liabilities and expenses arising out of or in connection with any personal injury, death or property damage to Align, Align's invitees, employees, agents, contractors, consultants, and guests, BBC, BBC’s representatives, or any other individual or entity as a result of any such entry. Align understands that in order to permit the work to progress in orderly fashion, no interference with construction work on the Project or Building 1 shall be permitted. Additionally, no work of any kind may be contracted for or performed by Align or Align's agents on the Building 1 prior to Closing, except as agreed herein, which is limited to the preliminary preparation work, but in no way this preliminary preparation works may cause delays in the construction of Building 1, the Project or the Closing. Align agrees, as an express condition of entering the Project or the Building 1 during the course of construction and before the Closing, that Align shall, on behalf of Align and all agents, consultants, contractors, guests or other third parties given permission to enter the Project or the Building 1 to strictly adhere to and abide by all of occupational, construction and safety rules of BBC or the construction firm, with the understanding that the individual will enter the Project or Building 1 at its own account and risk, for this reason Align agrees to and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless BBC, and its contractors, employees, directors and agents against any claims, demands, loss, damages, liability, or other expense that they may suffer or incur as a result of the such individual entering the Project or Building 1 during the construction.

Seventh: Inspection and Punch List. Align or an authorized representative shall be entitled to a Building Commissioning of the Building 1 upon receipt of Substantial Completion Notice, understood as the process of verifying on site applicable subsystems’ ability to meet Align’s physical and functional requirements pursuant to this PSA and its Exhibits. The Building Commissioning shall be scheduled at a mutually convenient time to BBC and Align, provided, however, that the inspection shall take place at the latest during the 30 calendar days following receipt by Align of the Substantial Completion Notice (the “Inspection Period”). During this process, the Parties shall prepare a written itemized list to be signed by the Parties identifying conditions which the Parties agree are to be completed by BBC within a reasonable period of time (the “Punch List”). If the items included in the Punch List have not been addressed by BBC prior to the Closing, BBC and Align will agree on an amount to be kept in the escrow account of the Escrow Agent (the “Holdback Deposit") to be disbursed to BBC upon completion of the Punch List within the agreed term or to Align in the event BBC fails to complete the Punch List on the agreed term due to reasons attributable to BBC. In the event of partial completion, such amount shall be disbursed proportionally. If the Punch List is not completed due to just cause or reasons indicated in section fifth of this PSA, the agreed term shall be


Central America
 
www.blplegal.com

psaalignsabc_image1a01.jpg


extended. Notwithstanding the above, the Holdback Deposit shall be proportional to the pending Punch List items and at no time shall exceed 5% of the Purchase Price.

Align’s failure for any reason to inspect Building 1 as expressly provided above, or during the Inspection Period, shall be deemed as a waiver of such inspection right by Align and acceptance of the condition of Building 1, and shall trigger the obligation of Align to deliver to the Escrow Agent the second (in the event that the Substantial Completion is still under challenge in accordance with section third of this PSA) and/or final payment of the Purchase Price.

Eight: CC&Rs and Signage. Building 1 will be part of a statutory condominium pursuant to the Condominium Act. Therefore, Align acknowledges and undertakes to abide and comply that the Project and Building 1 are subject to and governed by the Condominium Act and the CC&Rs. Align during due diligence shall receive a full and complete CC&Rs, provided, however, that the draft of such CC&Rs shall be delivered to Align and Align shall have the right to request reasonable modifications to such draft only in the matters pertaining to Align’s operation in Building 1, and Align agrees to be bound by the Condominium Act and the CC&R’s, and recognizes that such CC&Rs will be substantially the same as those delivered during the due diligence as they may be modified prior to Closing, but such modifications shall not affect Align’s rights under this PSA. The Condominium Act and the CC&R’s are applicable to each and every owner of the Project, and must be undertaken, complied with and observed by all condominium unit owners, specifically regarding the condominium maintenance quota.

After Closing, as part of the Condominium, Align shall be the sole responsible to pay all maintenance quota for the Exclusive Common Area and the corresponding maintenance quota due to the purchase of the Condominium Units (“CAM Fee”). The current CAM Fee is calculated in $3.09 Dollars per sq. m. per month, so, taking that Building 1 is comprised of 10,513 sq. m., the total monthly paid to be paid by Align shall be $32,483.17 Dollars. The CAM Fee shall be adjusted if the measurement of Building 1 varies.
