THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into this 13th day of February, 2004, by and between KAUPULEHU DEVELOPMENTS, a Hawaii general partnership (“Seller”), and WB KD ACQUISITION, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (herein referred to as the “Developer”).

 

R E C I T A L S:

 

A.            Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the text or in Article 14 of this Agreement.

 

B.            Seller is the ground lessee under the Original Ground Lease with Kamehameha Schools (“KS”) whereby Seller has a leasehold interest in and to certain real property referred to as Lot 4 situated in Kaupulehu, North Kona, Big Island, Hawaii (“Lot 4”).

 

C.            Seller has subdivided Lot 4 into three (3) separate parcels, configured as shown on the plan attached hereto as Exhibit A (“Lot 4A”, “Lot 4B” and “Lot 4C”).

 

D.            Developer desires to purchase Seller’s interest in Lot 4A on the terms and conditions set forth herein.  A legal description of Lot 4A is attached hereto as Exhibit B.  Seller has transferred its entire interest in Lot 4B to a third party.  Seller will retain its leasehold interest in Lot 4C.

 

E.             Seller and Developer have negotiated with KS the terms and conditions of a new and separate lease to Lot 4A to be issued by KS to Developer at Closing (the “Lot 4A Lease”).

 

F.             After the acquisition of the Lot 4A Lease at Closing, Developer intends to further subdivide Lot 4A into two (2) development increments referred to herein as “Increment 1” and “Increment 2” as described below.

 

G.            Lot 4A is approximately 877 acres in area, of which approximately 241 acres are within the Coastal Planning Area Subzones and approximately 636 acres are developable.  Seller and Developer contemplate that Increments 1 and 2 will be developed in a manner generally consistent with the concept plan dated June 9, 2003 attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Concept Plan”) with Increments 1 and 2 described as follows:

 

1.             Increment 1 – approximately 80 single-family lots situated within that portion of Lot 4A shown on the map attached hereto as Exhibit C as Areas B, C1, C2, D1, D2, E, Beach Club, and Interpretive Center, upon which will be constructed the Phase I Beach Club, the Interpretive Center and Public Access Facilities, and the Residential Subdivisions - Increment 1; and

 

2.             Increment 2 — means and includes that portion of Lot 4A shown on Exhibit C as Areas A, F, G2 and H, Golf, and Golf Clubhouse, upon which the developer of

 Increment 2 may construct single-family units, multi-family units, the Golf Course, the Golf Clubhouse, and the Phase II Beach Club.

 

The approximate area of and the number of Units to be developed on each Residential Area are shown on the Concept Plan.

 

All residential components within Increments 1 and 2 (i.e. all single-family lots, multi-family units and fractional ownerships) will be sold in fee simple.  The non-residential components (e.g. Beach Club, Golf Course, Club House, and Coastal Planning Area Subzones) will remain in leasehold with KS, all pursuant to the terms of the Lot 4A Lease, except that the roadways will be conveyed to the community association(s) in fee simple and portions of the Coastal Planning Area Subzones and open spaces may be conveyed in fee simple to the community association(s) or to the purchasers of Residential Units.

 

H.            Developer intends to subdivide the residential areas shown on the Concept Plan (the “Residential Areas”) into smaller single-family residential lots and/or to construct condominium units or fractional ownership units or projects within such Residential Areas.  Such single-family lots or condominium units or fractional interests in such fractional ownership units are herein below sometimes referred to as “Residential Units” or simply “Units”.  Those Residential Areas or Residential Units remaining unsold from time to time during the term of this Agreement are herein below referred to as the “Remaining Residential Areas” and the “Remaining Residential Units” respectively.

 

I.              Seller and Developer desire to set forth their general understanding herein as to the terms and conditions on which Seller and Developer might contract to proceed with the joint development of the Increment 2 Property.  In the event that Seller and Developer are unable to agree on such joint development, then Increment 2 will be reconveyed to Seller all as more particularly described in Article 12 of this Agreement.

 

J.             Seller and Developer intend and agree that this Agreement supercedes the Purchase and Sale Agreement attached as Exhibit A to the February 27, 2003 Letter of Intent entered into between them.

(the “Escrow Holder”), and shall serve as the escrow instructions, together with such further instructions (the “Escrow Instructions”), if any, as the parties shall provide by written agreement.  Seller, Developer and Escrow Holder agree and acknowledge that this Agreement shall replace and supercede those certain escrow instructions by and between Developer and the Escrow Holder dated as of February 26, 2002.

 

2.3           Payment of Purchase Price .

 

(a)           Closing Payment .  The Closing Payment shall be paid by Developer into Escrow prior to Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with wiring instructions to be provided by the Escrow Holder.

 

(b)           Percentage Payments .  Except as provided in Section 2.3(d) below, and only with regard to initial sales to ultimate users (and not on resales by such ultimate users), Developer will make payments to Seller from any and all gross proceeds generated from sales of lots from the Increment 1 Real Property (the “Percentage Payments”) as follows:

 

(i)            Increment 1: Single-Family Lots .  Seller will receive 9% of the gross proceeds generated from the sale by Developer of all single-family lots in Increment 1 of the Real Property.  “Gross proceeds” for purposes of Section 2.3(b)(i) shall mean the actual and full consideration paid by the purchaser for the Unit, being the amount subject to the conveyance tax imposed by HRS §247-2.  Notwithstanding the above, if and when the aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of single-family lots in Increment 1 exceed $100,000,000.00, Seller will receive the following percentages of such aggregate gross proceeds:

 

Aggregate Gross Proceeds

 

Percentage Payment

 

 

 

 

 

More than $100,000,000 but less than
$300,000,000

 

10

%

 

 

 

 

More than $300,000,000

 

14

%

 

(ii)           Single Family Lots Only/Club Memberships .  Unless Seller and Developer are able to agree in advance on how the sales proceeds will be allocated between an Increment 1 single family lot and a residence to be constructed by Developer on it, all sales from Increment 1 shall be sales of single family lots sold without a residence.  Developer agrees to offer all purchasers of single family lots in Increment 1 the option to apply for (a) a membership in the Lot 4A Beach Club ensuring the purchaser the right of full use of the Beach Club’s facilities, subject to the membership rules, rates and regulations then in effect, as they may be amended from time to time, and (b) a membership in the Kukio Golf and Beach Club on the terms and conditions set forth in that certain “Kukio Agreement” referenced in Section 14 of Article IV of the Lot 4A Lease.  Developer agrees to construct or bond to completion Phase I of

 

4



 

the Lot 4A Beach Club according to the timetable to be set forth in Section 11.b. of Article IV of the Lot 4A Lease.

 

(iii)          Payment Procedure .  Developer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Seller written notice of each Unit sale not less than five (5) business days prior to its closing and, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.3(d) below, shall instruct the escrow for each such sale to pay the Percentage Payment directly to Seller at closing.  If Developer provides purchase money financing to the purchaser of a Unit, then Developer may either, at Developer’s option, (1) pay all of the applicable Percentage Payment for such Unit at closing of the sale, or (2) pay to Seller the Percentage Payment with respect to the cash portion of the purchase price received by Developer from the purchaser at the closing and pay to Seller the Percentage Payment with respect to the sales price financed and the interest thereon paid by the purchaser within 10 days after Developer’s receipt of payment from the purchaser.  For example, assume that Developer sells a Unit for the price of $5,000,000.00 by providing $2,000,000.00 in purchase money financing to the Unit purchaser payable pursuant to the terms of a promissory note, and that one year after the sale closes receives payment of $1,000,000.00 plus $180,000.00 in interest pursuant to the promissory note.  In such case, (i) upon the initial closing, Developer shall pay to Seller the Percentage Payment based on the $3,000,000.00 received by Developer at closing, (ii) within 10 days after receiving the $1,180,000.00 payment of principal and interest, Developer shall make the Percentage Payment applicable to the $1,180,000.00, and (iii) within 10 days after receiving subsequent payments under the promissory note, the applicable Percentage Payment shall be made to Seller.  Developer shall promptly provide Seller with copies of any note, mortgage or other document used by Developer to finance the purchase of any Unit, and any amendments thereto.  Developer shall also provide Seller with copies of the monthly loan statements issued to each purchaser/mortgagor financed by Developer or with a separate statement containing the same or substantially the same information with respect to each loan.  For the purpose of determining whether the aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of Units in Increment 1 have exceeded the $100,000,000.00 or $300,000,000.00 thresholds under Section 2.3(b)(i), such gross proceeds shall include the financed portion of each sale, i.e. the principal amount loaned, but not any interest thereon, at such time(s) as such portion is collected by Developer.

 

(iv)          Release of Units .  Seller shall provide an executed partial release in recordable form releasing all of its interest in a particular Unit in connection with the closing of each sale to an ultimate user within five (5) business days of Developer’s request therefor.  To avoid any situation where the closing of a sale of a Unit cannot occur due to Seller’s untimely execution of the partial release mentioned above, and within five (5) business days of Developer’s written request therefor, Seller shall execute and deposit with the escrow designated by Developer partial releases with respect to any Unit sale which Developer anticipates closing within sixty (60) days of the request, together with instructions authorizing escrow to release the Units from Seller’s interest at closing, conditioned on payment to Seller at closing of the applicable Percentage Payment from the sale of the Unit.

 

5



 

(c)           Bona Fide Sales .  All sales of Units to ultimate users and all other sales of Units with respect to which Seller is entitled to receive any Percentage Payment, shall be for a fair market value or bona fide sales negotiated in good faith at arm’s length.

 

(d)           Minimum Payments .  If prior to December 31, 2005, Developer has not made payments of Percentage Payments to Seller pursuant to Section 2.3(b) above equal to or greater than $2,500,000.00 in the aggregate, then Developer shall pay to Seller the amount by which the aggregate amount of all prior Percentage Payments made by Developer to Seller under Section 2.3(b) is less than $2,500,000.00.  If prior to December 31, 2006, Developer has not made payments of Percentage Payments, including payments required under this Section 2.3(d) in lieu of Percentage Payments, in an amount equal to or greater than $5,000,000.00 in the aggregate, then Developer shall pay to Seller the amount by which the aggregate amount of all such payments is less than $5,000,000.00.  Any additional payments made by Developer under this Section 2.3(d) shall be credited against Developer’s obligation to make Percentage Payments with respect to the subsequent sale of Units.

 

(e)           Reimbursement .  If Developer makes any Percentage Payment to Seller with respect to a Unit sale which is subsequently rescinded or modified, and if Developer refunds all or part of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Unit on which the Percentage Payment to Seller was based to the purchaser of the Unit, then Seller will promptly repay such Percentage Payment, or portion thereof allocable to the gross proceeds returned to the Unit purchaser, to Developer.

 

(f)            No Payments for Non-Residential Areas in Increment 1 .  Except as set forth above, no other payments shall be due to Seller for purchase of the Increment 1 Property.  No additional payments shall be payable to Seller with respect to the Beach Club, roadways, Coastal Planning Area Subzones, open spaces, and other non-residential areas.

 

2.4           Memorandum of Agreement .  Seller and Developer shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Holder at Closing a Memorandum of Agreement providing notice of Seller’s Retained Rights and in the form and substance of Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Memorandum”), which Memorandum shall be recorded in the Bureau of Conveyances of the State of Hawaii (the “Bureau of Conveyances”) at the Closing and shall encumber the Real Property.

 

2.5           Interim Payments .  Developer shall pay to Seller $50,000.00 per month (each such payment is hereinafter referred to as an “Interim Payment” and collectively as the “Interim Payments”), with the first Interim Payment having been paid on or about March 1, 2003, with subsequent Interim Payments having been paid on or about the first day of each calendar month thereafter, and with Interim Payments continuing until the date of termination of payment described below.  Payment of the Interim Payments shall terminate on the first to occur of the following:

 

(a)           the termination of this Agreement prior to Closing;

 

6



 

(b)           if all or substantially all of the Increment 1 Property shall be taken by condemnation;

 

(c)           the date of the closing of the final sale of fifty percent (50%) or more of the single family lots in Increment 1 to ultimate users; and

 

(d)           Developer’s payment to Seller of Interim Payments in the aggregate amount of $1,500,000.00 (including Interim Payments made by Developer under its February 27, 2003 letter agreement with Seller).

 

Developer and Seller confirm and agree that as of the date of this Agreement, Developer has paid Seller Interim Payments in the aggregate amount of $550,000.00 which aggregate amount includes the Interim Payment due January 1, 2004.

 

ARTICLE 3

3.1           Title Report .  A pro forma title report (the “Title Report”) prepared and issued by the Escrow Holder’s affiliate, Title Guaranty of Hawaii, Inc.
