PURCHASE AND SALE

Section 2.1 PURCHASE AND SALE. Seller agrees to sell the Property to
Buyer, and Buyer agrees to purchase the Property from Seller upon all of the
terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

Section 2.2 PURCHASE PRICE AND CASH LEASE.

(a) The purchase price for the Property (the "Purchase Price")
shall be Six Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($6,500,000.00)
and shall be allocated to the land, to the Improvements, to the Personal
Property and to the Intangible Property in accordance with the mutual agreement
of the parties hereto.

(b) The Purchase Price shall be payable as follows on the
Closing Date through the escrow established pursuant to Section 6.1:

(i) Six Million and 00/100 Dollars ($6,000,000.00) shall be
payable in cash; and

(ii) Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00)
shall be payable in accordance with a promissory note in the form attached to
this Agreement as EXHIBIT I (the "Note"). The Note will have a five (5) year
term, accrue interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, and be payable
in equal semi-annual installments of interest only due on each May 1 and
November 1 during the term of the Note, with all outstanding amounts due at
maturity. The Note shall be secured by a second deed of trust encumbering the
fee interest in the Real Property in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT J (the
"Deed of Trust").

(c) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that a portion of the Real
Property is encumbered by that certain Cash Farm Lease dated June 1, 1988 by and
between Kash, Inc. ("Kash") and Seller (as successor-in-interest to Mont LaSalle
Vineyards) (the "Cash Lease"). Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that Kash,
as the lessee under the Cash Lease, has a right of first refusal to purchase the
property described therein (the "Right of First Refusal Property"). Buyer and
Seller agree that the value of the Right of First Refusal Property is One
Million, Eighty-Seven Thousand, Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($1,087,500.00),
which value takes into account the value of similar orchard land and the
additional value of the Right of First Refusal Property to the owner of the Real
Property as a potential waste water discharge site or expansion site for the
Business. In the event Kash exercises such right of first refusal, the Right of
First Refusal Property shall be excised from the Real Property and shall not be
conveyed to Buyer, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by One Million,
Eighty-Seven Thousand, Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($1,087,500.00). In
addition, in the event Kash exercises such right of first refusal and Seller is
not legally able to convey to Kash the Right of First Refusal Property without
effecting a subdivision or lot split and such subdivision or lot split cannot be
Completed

(as defined below) prior to the Closing Date, then (i) on the Closing Date,
Buyer shall purchase the Property LESS Parcels 4, 6, 8 and 9, as shown on the
Preliminary Report (i.e., the legal parcels that include the Right of First
Refusal Property) for the Purchase Price (less the reduction described above in
this Section 2.2(c)), and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable after Seller
has completed the subject subdivision or lot split, Seller shall transfer to
Buyer for no additional consideration that portion of said Parcels 4, 6, 8 and 9
other than the Right of First Refusal Property (the "Remaining Property") by
executing and recording in the Fresno County records a grant deed for the
Remaining Property, which grant deed shall be substantially in the form attached
to this Agreement as EXHIBIT D. In the event of such a delayed transfer of the
Remaining Property, the costs, expenses and income of the Remaining Property
shall be pro-rated between Buyer and Seller as of the date on which the deed for
the Remaining Property is recorded in the Official Records of Fresno County,
Buyer shall execute all documents reasonably required to insure that the lien of
the Deed of Trust encumbers the Remaining Property, and notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in Section 7.1, damage or destruction of the Remaining Property
after the Closing Date shall not give either party the right to terminate or
rescind this Agreement under said Section 7.1 or otherwise. For purposes of
this Section 2.2(c), the subdivision or lot split shall be deemed "Completed"
when the approval by the appropriate governmental authorities of the final map
or lot line adjustment relating to the subject subdivision or lot split has been
obtained, and the passage of any applicable appeal periods has occurred. If
Seller pursues the subdivision or lot split described in this Section 2.2(c),
Seller will use reasonable efforts to complete the subdivision or lot split, and
will consult Buyer with respect to the configuration and terms of the
subdivision or lot split and permit Buyer to participate in the process of
effecting such subdivision or lot split so as to avoid a subdivision or lot
split that will materially and adversely affect the Business. Buyer shall have
no liability for any of the costs and fees required to complete any subdivision
or lot split required in order to convey the Right of First Refusal Property to
Kash, and/or any of the costs and fees of any parcel maps, variances or
conditional use permits required by such subdivision or lot split. If the
Purchase Price is reduced pursuant to this Section 2.2(c), then such reduction
shall be allocated to the land, to the Improvements, to the Personal Property
and to the Intangible Property in accordance with the mutual agreement of the
parties hereto.

Section 2.3 SELLER'S DISCLAIMER.

Seller disclaims the making of any representations or warranties, express or
implied, regarding the Property or matters affecting the Property, including,
without limitation, the physical condition of the Property, title to or the

ordinance relating to liability of property owners. Buyer hereby specifically
waives the provisions of section 1542 of the California Civil Code ("Section
1542") and any similar law of any other state, territory or jurisdiction.
Section 1542 provides:

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does
not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing
the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his
settlement with the debtor.

Buyer hereby specifically acknowledges that Buyer has carefully reviewed this
subsection and discussed its import with its legal counsel and that the
provisions of this subsection are a material part of this Agreement.

Section 4.4 BUYER'S COVENANTS.

(a) Without limiting any of its obligations under any and all
confidentiality agreements previously executed by Buyer, Buyer shall hold in
strict confidence all documents and information obtained by it with respect to
Seller and its affiliates, the Property and the Business, except to the extent
required by law or otherwise publicly available, shall not disclose or convey
any of such documents or information to any other person without the written
consent of Seller (other than on a need-to-know basis to counsel, accountants or
experts retained by Buyer where Buyer insures that such counsel, accountants and
experts are bound by the restrictions set forth herein), shall use such
documents and information solely for the purpose of evaluating the transactions
contemplated thereby, and shall return to Seller all such documents and

Section 4.5 LIMITATION OF COVENANTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the respective
covenants of the parties to be performed under the terms of this Agreement at or
before the Closing Date, shall expire upon the closing of the purchase and sale
of the Property; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.5 shall be
deemed to limit or otherwise affect any covenant (or part thereof) of either
party that is permitted or required to be performed after the Closing Date,
including without limitation, any obligation arising under the provisions of
Sections 2.2(c), 4.4, 6.3, 7.2, 7.9, 7.12 or 7.16 of this Agreement, or pursuant
to the closing documents to be delivered by each party under Section 6.1 of this
Agreement. The parties further agree that (a) Seller's warranties and
representations contained in this Agreement and in any document (including any
certificate) executed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall survive Buyer's
purchase of the Property only for a period of one (1) year after the Closing
Date (the "Limitation Period"), and (b) Buyer shall provide actual written
notice to Seller of any breach of such warranties or representations within the
Limitation Period (which notice must set forth in reasonable detail the basis
for

Buyer's determination that such a breach has occurred and a calculation of the
damages incurred as a result thereof) and shall allow Seller thirty (30) days
within which to cure such breach, or, if such breach cannot reasonably be cured
within thirty (30) days, an additional reasonable time period, so long as such
cure has been commenced within such thirty (30) days and diligently pursued. If
Seller fails to cure such breach after actual written notice and within such
cure period, Buyer's sole remedy shall be an action at law for damages as a
consequence thereof, which must be commenced, if at all, within the Limitation
Period; provided, however, that if within the Limitation Period Buyer gives
Seller written notice of such a breach and Seller commences to cure and
thereafter terminates such cure effort, Buyer shall have an additional thirty
(30) days from the date of such termination within which to commence an action
at law for damages as a consequence of Seller's failure to cure. The Limitation
Period referred to herein shall apply to known as well as unknown breaches of
such warranties or representations. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, (i) the representations and warranties of Seller under this Agreement
shall not extend to, and shall exclude, any information actually known to Buyer
on or prior to the Closing Date and Seller shall have no liability with respect
thereto, and (ii) Seller shall not be liable for any breach of any
representation or warranty unless the total of all damages incurred by Buyer as
a result of Seller's breaches of the representations and warranties hereunder
exceed in the aggregate Seventy-Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($75,000.00),
and then only for the amount by which such damages exceed Seventy-Five Thousand

(a) In the event of any damage or destruction to the Real
Property during the Contract Period for which the cost to repair is less than
One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00), Seller and Buyer shall
proceed with the purchase and sale of the Property in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement and Seller shall assign to Buyer at closing its right to
receive all insurance proceeds (if any) with respect to such damage or
destruction up to the sum of One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars

Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00), either party may elect to
terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to the other party within

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the insurance
proceeds to be credited or delivered to Buyer pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall
exclude business interruption or rental loss insurance proceeds, if any,
allocable to the period through the Closing Date, which proceeds shall be
retained by Seller.

Property is so taken, Buyer shall have the option of (i) proceeding with the
closing and acquiring the Property as affected by such taking, together with all
compensation and damage awarded or the right to receive same, or (ii) canceling
this Agreement. If Buyer elects option (i) above, Seller agrees to assign to
Buyer at the closing its rights to such compensation and damages, and shall not
settle any proceedings related to such taking without Buyer's prior written
consent.

Section 7.2 BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS AND FINDER'S FEES. Each party to this
Agreement warrants to the other that no person or entity can properly claim a
right to a real estate commission, real estate finder's fee, real estate
acquisition fee or other real estate brokerage-type compensation (collectively,
"Real Estate Compensation") based upon the acts of that party with respect to
the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Each party hereby agrees to
indemnify and defend the other against and to hold the other harmless from any

attorneys' fees and returned commissions)

resulting from any claim for Real Estate Compensation by any person or entity
based upon such acts by the indemnifying party.

Section 7.3 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Neither party may assign any of its
rights or delegate its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent
of the other party, provided that Buyer may assign its rights and delegate its
obligations hereunder without Seller's consent to a subsidiary or affiliate in
which Buyer has a substantial equity position and which is controlled by or
under common control with Buyer, provided Buyer is the principal operating
entity in the affiliated group to which such assignee belongs, and further
provided that Buyer irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the performance
of all of "Buyer's" obligations under this Agreement and all documents executed
pursuant to this Agreement and assumes all of "Buyer's" liabilities under this
Agreement and all such documents, by an instrument satisfactory to Seller.
