1. It is understood that the Sales Contract (DROA) is for purchasing a share of stock in Atkinson Towers, Inc., which is represented by the assignment of the Proprietary Lease on Apartment #1101, use of parking stall #42, use of the assigned space in the storage room and the co-use of the limited common elements.

2. Buyer understands that the project, Atkinson Towers, Inc., is a residential cooperative and the Buyer is to receive a stock certificate for one (1) share of stock when the sale is consummated as a "cash sale".

If the sale is by way of "Seller Financing" (Agreement of Sale, or Purchase Money Mortgage), or "Bank Financing" (First Mortgage), the Buyer is to receive the stock certificate upon "pay-off" of the loan.

3. NOTE: The Atkinson Towers, Inc. Stockholders voted on the resolution to convert from a Residential Co-operative project to a Condominium project, at the 2004 Annual Meeting.

4. Buyer understands that the ground lease rent, for the 10,500 sq.ft. property owner by Mr. Lloyd Char has been set for the period Jan. 1, 1997 to Dec. 31, 2006 is $60,000.00. The ground lease rent "pro ration" for Apartment #1101 is: $53/month - as of Jan. 1, 1997.

Note: The "Maintenance Fee" (which includes: parking lot ground lease rent, real property taxes, Atkinson Towers, Inc. insurance, basic TV cable, and other association expenses) is $320.27/month as of 01/01/2004.

The Buyer is encouraged to review the corporation's current financial statement and seek legal advice prior to purchasing stock or an interest in Atkinson Towers, Inc.

5. Buyer understands that at the end of this ten-year period (Dec. 31, 2006), Atkinson Towers, Inc. will have to again re-negotiate the ground lease rent on the property owned by Mr. Lloyd Char (10,500 sq.ft.) for the next ten-year period.

6. Buyer understands that the master lease on the 10,500 sq.ft. parcel (parking lot) expires on December 31, 2016 and that if the Corporation is not successful in purchasing the leased fee interest in the parcel owned by Mr. Lloyd Char or in obtaining an extension of the lease, that particular portion of Buyer's vested interest in Atkinson Towers, Inc. will terminate with no residual value or recovery of investment.

This is known as the "surrender clause" in the master lease. To wit: The Lessee (Atkinson Towers, Inc.) will be required to turn over the Lloyd Char property, including the improvements (if any), to the Lessor at the termination of the lease.

Furthermore, it is understood that if the Corporation is not successful in purchasing the leased fee interest (fee simple), or in gaining an extension of the ground lease, the value of stock in Atkinson Towers, Inc. may diminish as the year of the expiration of the Master Lease approaches.

Note I: The Corporation is currently negotiating with the Lessor (Floyd Char) to purchase the fee simple interest in the property (10,500 sq.ft.). If/when their offer is accepted, the Corporation will have an opportunity to finance the purchase price for the Share Owners and the pro-ration for apartment #1101 would/could be $90/month, or approximately $38 more than the current fee for the parking stall.

Note II: If Atkinson Towers, Inc. is not successful in purchasing the leased fee interest (fee simple), the Corporation can petition the State of Hawaii for mandatory leasehold conversion, as long as the project has more than sixty percent (60%) owner residents.

Note III: If all the above fails, the Corporation will build a double deck parking garage, on Atkinson Towers' property, with enough parking stalls for all the Owners.
