TEJON RANCH CO. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The summarized information of Tejon Ranch Co. and its subsidiaries, (the Company, Tejon, we, us and our), furnished pursuant to the instructions to Part I of Form 10-Q is unaudited and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the Company’s management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. We have evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of our consolidated financial statements.
The periods ending September 30, 2016 and 2015 include the consolidation of Centennial Founders, LLC’s statement of operations within the resort /residential real estate development segment and statements of cash flows. The Company’s September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 balance sheets and statements of changes in equity and noncontrolling interests are presented on a consolidated basis including the consolidation of Centennial Founders, LLC.
The Company has identified five reportable segments: commercial/industrial real estate development, resort/residential real estate development, mineral resources, farming, and ranch operations. Information for the Company’s reported segments is presented in its consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s reporting segments follow the same accounting policies used for the Company’s consolidated financial statements. We use segment profit or loss, along with equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures, as the primary measure of profitability to evaluate operating performance and to allocate capital resources.
The results of the period reported herein are not indicative of the results to be expected for the full year due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s agricultural activities and timing of real estate sales and leasing activities. Historically, the Company’s largest percentages of farming revenues are recognized during the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on results of operations.
Ranch Operations
During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company reclassified revenues and expenses comprised of grazing leases, game management and other ancillary services supporting the ranch, from commercial/industrial into a new segment called ranch operations. As a result, the Company reclassified prior period ranch operation revenues and expenses on the consolidated statements of income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, revenues and expenses reclassified were $2,745,000 and $4,686,000, respectively. For the quarter ended September 30, 2015, revenues and expenses reclassified were $447,000 and $1,674,000, respectively.
For further information and a summary of significant accounting policies, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which provides guidance for revenue recognition that supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance (but does not apply to nor supersede accounting guidance for lease contracts). The ASU’s core principle is that an entity will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and should be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU recognized at the date of initial application. In July 2015, the FASB affirmed its proposal to defer the effective date by one year. The new standard will become effective for the Company beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

8



In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis,” which makes certain changes to both the variable interest model and the voting model, including changes to (1) the identification of variable interests (fees paid to a decision maker or service provider), (2) the variable interest entity characteristics for a limited partnership or similar entity, and (3) the primary beneficiary determination. ASU 2015-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. As a result of adopting this ASU, on January 1, 2016 we were not required to consolidate any legal entities that were previously unconsolidated or deconsolidate any legal entities that were previously consolidated. Therefore, upon adoption, we were not required to retrospectively adjust any prior period information or recognize a cumulative effect of the change in retained earnings as a result of the initial application of this update.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Financial Statements - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities," which requires equity investments in unconsolidated entities (other than those accounted for using the equity method of accounting) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. There will no longer be an available-for-sale classification for equity securities with readily determinable fair values. The new guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases." From the lessee's perspective, the new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement for a lessee. From the lessor's perspective, the new standard requires a lessor to classify leases as either sales-type, finance or operating. A lease will be treated as a sale if it transfers all of the risks and rewards, as well as control of the underlying asset, to the lessee. If risks and rewards are conveyed without the transfer of control, the lease is treated as a financing lease. If the lessor doesn’t convey risks and rewards or control, an operating lease results. ASU 2016-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230),” or ASU 2016-15. ASU 2016-15 is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The new guidance addresses the classification of various transactions including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, distributions received from equity method investments, beneficial interests in securitization transactions, and others. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
2.    EQUITY

3.     MARKETABLE SECURITIES
ASC 320, “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities” requires that an enterprise classify all debt securities as either held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale. The Company has elected to classify its securities as available-for-sale and therefore is required to adjust securities to fair value at each reporting date. All costs and both realized and unrealized gains and losses on securities are determined on a specific identification basis. The following is a summary of available-for-sale securities at:

We evaluate our securities for other-than-temporary impairment based on the specific facts and circumstances surrounding each security valued below its cost. Factors considered include the length of time the securities have been valued below cost, the financial condition of the issuer, industry reports related to the issuer, the severity of any decline, our intention not to sell the security, and our assessment as to whether it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before a recovery of its amortized cost basis. We then segregate the loss between the amounts representing a decrease in cash flows expected to be collected, or the credit loss, which is recognized through earnings, and the balance of the loss which is recognized through other comprehensive income. At September 30, 2016, the fair market value of investment securities was $24,000 higher than their cost basis.
As of September 30, 2016, the adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive loss in consolidated equity for the temporary change in the value of securities reflected an increase in the market value of available-for-sale securities of $184,000, which includes estimated taxes of $64,000. As of September 30, 2016, the Company’s gross unrealized holding income equaled $80,000 and gross unrealized holding losses equaled $56,000.

5.     LONG-TERM WATER ASSETS
Long-term water assets consist of water and water contracts held for future use or sale. The water is held at cost, which includes the price paid for the water and the cost incurred to pump and deliver the water. A portion of our water is currently held in a water bank on Company land in southern Kern County. Banked water costs also include costs related to the right to receive additional acre-feet of water in the future from the Antelope Valley East Kern Water Agency, or AVEK. The Company has also banked water within an AVEK owned water bank.
We also purchase water for future use or sale. In 2008 we purchased 8,393 acre feet of transferable water and in 2009 we purchased an additional 6,393 acre-feet of transferable water, the remaining portion of which is held on our behalf by AVEK under an agreement where AVEK will return this water to us at a 1.5 to 1 factor. To date, 8,587 acre-feet of water has been returned and was placed in our Company water bank.

11



We also have secured State Water Project, or SWP, entitlement under long-term SWP water contracts within the Tulare Lake Basin Water Storage District, or TLBWSD, and the Dudley-Ridge Water District, or DRWD, totaling 3,444 acre-feet of SWP entitlement annually, subject to annual SWP allocations. These contracts extend through 2035 and now have been transferred to AVEK for our use in the Antelope Valley. In 2013, the Company acquired from DMB Pacific, or DMB, a contract to purchase water that obligates the Company to purchase 6,693 acre feet of water each year from the Nickel Family, LLC, or Nickel, a California limited liability company that is located in Kern County. The initial term of the water purchase agreement with Nickel runs to 2044 and includes a Company option to extend the contract for an additional 35 years. Purchase costs in 2016 were $695 per acre-foot. For future years, the purchase cost is subject to annual increases based on the greater of the consumer price index and 3%.
The water purchased under the contract with Nickel is expected to be used in the development of the Company’s land for commercial/industrial development, residential development, and farming. Interim uses may include the sale of portions of this water to third party users on an annual basis until this water is fully allocated to Company uses.
On August 6, 2015, Tejon Ranchcorp, or Ranchcorp, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tejon Ranch Co., entered into a Water Supply Agreement with Pastoria Energy Facility, L.L.C., or PEF. PEF is the current lessee under the power plant lease. Pursuant to the Water Supply Agreement, beginning on January 1, 2016, PEF may purchase from Ranchcorp up to 2,000 acre feet of water and, from January 1, 2017 through July 31, 2030, with an option to extend the term, PEF may purchase from Ranchcorp up to 3,500 acre feet of water per year. PEF is under no obligation to purchase water from Ranchcorp in any year, but is required to pay Ranchcorp an annual option payment equal to 30% of the maximum annual payment. The price of the water under the Water Supply Agreement is $1,025 per acre foot of annual water, subject to 3% annual increases commencing January 1, 2017. The Water Supply Agreement contains other customary terms and conditions, including representations and warranties, which are typical for agreements of this type. The Company's commitments to sell water can be met through current water assets.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we sold 7,285 acre feet of water totaling $9,601,000 with a cost of $5,925,000, which was recorded in the mineral resources segment on the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.
Water contracts with the Wheeler Ridge Maricopa Water Storage District, or WRMWSD, and the Tejon-Castac Water District, or TCWD, are also in place, but were entered into with each district at inception of the contract and not purchased later from third parties, and do not have a related financial carrying cost on the books of the Company. Therefore, there is no amortization expense related to these contracts. These contracts are also subject to annual SWP allocations. Water assets consist of the following:

On October 13, 2014, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Ranchcorp, as borrower, entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, a Term Note and a Revolving Line of Credit Note, with Wells Fargo, or collectively the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility amended and restated the Company's existing credit facility dated as of November 5, 2010 and extended on December 4, 2013. The Credit Facility added a $70,000,000 Term Note, to the existing $30,000,000 revolving line of credit, or RLC. Funds from the Term Note were used to finance the Company's purchase of DMB TMV LLC’s interest in Tejon Mountain Village LLC. Any future borrowings under the RLC will be used for ongoing working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes. To maintain availability of funds under the RLC, undrawn amounts under the RLC will accrue a commitment fee of 10 basis points per annum. The Company's ability to borrow additional funds in the future under the RLC is subject to compliance with certain financial covenants and making certain representations and warranties. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the RLC had an outstanding balance of $11,000,000 and $0, respectively. At the Company’s option, the interest rate on this line of credit can float at 1.50% over a selected LIBOR or can be fixed at 1.50% above LIBOR for a fixed rate term. During the term of the Credit Facility (which matures in September 2019), we can borrow at any time and partially or wholly repay any outstanding borrowings and then re-borrow, as necessary.
The interest rate per annum applicable to the Term Note is LIBOR (as defined in the Term Note) plus a margin of 170 basis points. The interest rate for the term of the note has been fixed through the use of an interest rate swap at a rate of 4.11%. The Term Note requires interest only payments for the first two years of the term and thereafter requires monthly amortization payments pursuant to a schedule set forth in the Term Note, with the final outstanding principal amount due October 5, 2024. The Company may make voluntary prepayments on the Term Note at any time without penalty (excluding any applicable LIBOR or interest rate swap breakage costs). Each optional prepayment will be applied to reduce the most remote principal payment then unpaid. The Credit Facility is secured by the Company's farmland and farm assets, which include equipment, crops and crop receivables and the power plant lease and lease site, and related accounts and other rights to payment and inventory.

13



The Credit Facility requires compliance with three financial covenants: (a) total liabilities divided by tangible net worth not greater than 0.75 to 1.0 at each quarter end; (b) a debt service coverage ratio not less than 1.25 to 1.00 as of each quarter end on a rolling four quarter basis; and (c) maintain liquid assets equal to or greater than $20,000,000. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.
During the third quarter of 2013, we entered into a promissory note agreement with CMFG Life Insurance Company, to pay a principal amount of $4,750,000 with principal and interest due monthly starting on October 1, 2013. The interest rate on this promissory note is 4.25% per annum, with monthly principal and interest payments of $102,700 ending on September 1, 2028. The proceeds from this promissory note were used to eliminate debt that had been previously used to provide long-term financing for a building being leased to Starbucks and provide additional working capital for future investment. The current balance on the note is $4,025,000. The balance of this long-term debt instrument listed above approximates the fair value of the instrument.

9.     STOCK COMPENSATION - RESTRICTED STOCK AND PERFORMANCE SHARE GRANTS
The Company’s stock incentive plans provide for the making of awards to employees based upon a service condition or through the achievement of performance-related objectives. The Company has issued three types of stock grant awards under these plans: restricted stock with service condition vesting; performance share grants that only vest upon the achievement of specified performance conditions, such as corporate cash flow goals, or Performance Condition Grants; and performance share grants that include threshold, target, and maximum achievement levels based on the achievement of specific performance milestones, or Performance Milestone Grants. The Company has also granted performance share grants that contain both performance-based and market-based conditions. Compensation cost for these awards is recognized based on either the achievement of the performance-based conditions, if they are considered probable, or if they are not considered probable, on the achievement of the market-based condition. Failure to satisfy the threshold performance conditions will result in the forfeiture of shares. Forfeiture of share awards with service conditions or performance-based restrictions results in a reversal of previously recognized share-based compensation expense. Forfeiture of share awards with market-based restrictions does not result in a reversal of previously recognized share-based compensation expense.
The following is a summary of the Company's performance share grants with performance conditions for the nine months ended September 30, 2016:

272,353

The unamortized costs associated with nonvested stock grants and the weighted-average period over which it is expected to be recognized as of September 30, 2016 were $3,739,716 and 20 months, respectively. The fair value of restricted stock with time-based vesting features is based upon the Company’s share price on the date of grant and is expensed over the service period. Fair value of performance share grants that cliff vest based on the achievement of performance conditions is based on the share price of the Company’s stock on the day of grant once the Company determines that it is probable that the award will vest. This fair value is expensed over the service period applicable to these grants. For performance share grants that contain a range of shares from zero to maximum we determine, based on historic and projected results, the probability of (1) achieving the performance objective, and (2) the level of achievement. Based on this information, we determine the fair value of the award and measure the expense over the service period related to these grants. Because the ultimate vesting of all performance share grants is tied to the achievement of a performance condition, we estimate whether the performance condition will be met and over what period of time. Ultimately, we adjust compensation cost according to the actual outcome of the performance condition.
Under the Non-Employee Director Stock Incentive Plan, or NDSI Plan, each non-employee director receives his or her annual compensation in stock. The stock is granted at the end of each quarter based on the quarter ending stock price.

10.     INTEREST RATE SWAP LIABILITY
During October 2014, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge cash flows tied to changes in the underlying floating interest rate tied to LIBOR for the Term Note as discussed in Note 7 (Line of Credit and Long-Term Debt) The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of our interest rate swap agreement is required to be recognized directly in earnings. During the quarter ended September 30, 2016, our interest rate swap agreement was 100% effective; because of this, no hedge ineffectiveness was recognized in earnings. Changes in fair value, including accrued interest and adjustments for non-performance risk, on the effective portion of our interest rate swap agreements that are designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are classified in accumulated other comprehensive income. Amounts classified in accumulated other comprehensive income are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. As of September 30, 2016, the fair value of our interest rate swap agreement aggregating a liability balance was classified in other liabilities.
We had the following outstanding interest rate swap agreement designated as a cash flow hedge of interest rate risk as of September 30, 2016 ($ in thousands):

11.     INCOME TAXES
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company's income tax expense was $503,000 compared to an income tax expense of $464,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. These represent effective income tax rates of approximately 39% and 28% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and, 2015, respectively. As of September 30, 2016, we did not have income taxes payable.
The Company classifies interest and penalties incurred on tax payments as income tax expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company made $1,350,000 of income tax payments for the 2015 tax year.
12.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In 2016, the Company paid $8,529,000 for water contracts. Water contract payments consist of SWP, contracts with WRMWDS, TCWD, TLBWSD, DRWD and the Nickel water contract. The SWP contracts run through 2035 and the Nickel water contract runs to 2044, with an option to extend an additional 35 years. As discussed in Note 5 (Long-Term Water Assets), we purchased the assignment of a contract to purchase water in late 2013. The assigned water contract is with Nickel Family, LLC, and obligates us to purchase 6,693 acre-feet of water annually through the term of the contract.
The Company is obligated to make payments of approximately $800,000 per year to the Tejon Ranch Conservancy as prescribed in the Conservation Agreement we entered into with five major environmental organizations in 2008. Our advances to the Tejon Ranch Conservancy are dependent on the occurrence of certain events and their timing, and are therefore subject to change in amount and period. These amounts are recorded in real estate development for the Centennial and Mountain Village at Tejon Ranch, or MV, projects. Our obligation under this commitment terminates at the end of 2021.
The Company exited a consulting contract during the second quarter of 2014 related to the Grapevine Development and is obligated to pay an earned incentive fee at the time of successful receipt of project entitlements and at a value measurement date five-years after entitlements have been achieved for Grapevine. The final amount of the incentive fees will not be finalized until the future payment dates. The Company believes that net savings from exiting the contract over this future time period will more than offset the incentive payment costs.
The Tejon Ranch Public Facilities Financing Authority, or TRPFFA, is a joint powers authority formed by Kern County and TCWD to finance public infrastructure within the Company’s Kern County developments. TRPFFA has created two Community Facilities Districts, or CFDs, the West CFD and the East CFD. The West CFD has placed liens on 420 acres of the Company’s land to secure payment of special taxes related to $28,620,000 of bond debt sold by TRPFFA for TRCC-West. The East CFD has placed liens on 1,931 acres of the Company’s land to secure payments of special taxes related to $55,000,000 of bond debt sold by TRPFFA for TRCC-East. At TRCC-West, the West CFD has no additional bond debt approved for issuance. At TRCC-East, the East CFD has approximately $65,000,000 of additional bond debt authorized by TRPFFA that can be sold in the future.
In connection with the sale of bonds there is a standby letter of credit for $5,426,000 related to the issuance of East CFD bonds. The standby letter of credit is in place to provide additional credit enhancement and cover approximately two years' worth of interest on the outstanding bonds. This letter of credit will not be drawn upon unless the Company, as the largest landowner in the CFD, fails to make its property tax payments. The Company believes that the letter of credit will never be drawn upon. The letter of credit is for two years and will be renewed in two-year intervals as necessary. The annual cost related to the letter of credit is approximately $83,000.
The Company is obligated, as a landowner in each CFD, to pay its share of the special taxes assessed each year. The secured lands include both the TRCC-West and TRCC-East developments. Proceeds from the sale of West CFD bonds went to reimburse the Company for public infrastructure related to the TRCC-West development. As of September 30, 2016, there were no additional improvement funds remaining from the West CFD bonds. During the first quarter of 2016, the East CFD reimbursed the Company approximately $4,162,000 for public infrastructure. After this payment, there is $13,923,000 in funds remaining in the East CFD improvement fund. There were no reimbursement payments made to the Company during the second or third quarters of 2016. During 2016, the Company paid approximately $1,292,425 in special taxes. As development continues to occur at TRCC, new owners of land and new lease tenants, through triple-net leases, will bear an increasing portion of the assessed special tax. This amount could change in the future based on the amount of bonds outstanding and the amount of taxes paid by new owners of land and new lease tenants. The assessment of each individual property sold or leased is not determinable at this time because it is based on the current tax rate and the assessed value of the property at the time of sale or on its assessed value at the time it is leased to a third-party. Accordingly, the Company is not currently required to recognize an obligation.

In July 2014, the Company received a copy of a Notice of Intent to Sue, or Notice, dated July 17, 2014 indicating that the Center for Biological Diversity, the Wishtoyo Foundation and Dee Dominguez intend to initiate a lawsuit against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, or USFWS, under the federal Endangered Species Act challenging USFWS's approval of Ranchcorp's Tehachapi Uplands Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan, or TUMSHCP, and USFWS's issuance of an Incidental Take Permit, or ITP, to Ranchcorp for the take of federally listed species. The foregoing approvals authorize, among other things, removal of California condor habitat associated with Ranchcorp's potential future development of MV. No lawsuit has been filed at this time. It is not possible to predict whether any lawsuit will actually be filed or whether the Company or Ranchcorp will incur any damages from such a lawsuit.
National Cement
The Company leases land to National Cement Company of California Inc., or National, for the purpose of manufacturing Portland cement from limestone deposits on the leased acreage. The California Regional Water Quality Control Board, or RWQCB, for the Lahontan Region issued orders in the late 1990s with respect to environmental conditions on the property currently leased to National.
One order directs the Company's former tenant Lafarge Corporation (or Lafarge), the current tenant National, and the Company to clean up groundwater contamination on the leased property. Lafarge and National installed a groundwater cleanup system in 2003 and that system continues to operate. National and Lafarge have consolidated, closed, and capped cement kiln dust piles located on land leased from the Company. A second order directs National, Lafarge, and the Company to maintain and monitor the effectiveness of the cap.
The Company is not aware of any failure by Lafarge or National to comply with directives of the RWQCB. Under current and prior leases, National and Lafarge are obligated to indemnify the Company for costs and liabilities arising out of their use of the leased premises. The Company believes that the matters described above are included within the scope of the National or Lafarge indemnity obligations. If the Company is required to perform the work at its own cost, it is unlikely that the amount of any such expenditure by the Company would be material and there is no reasonable likelihood of continuing risk from this matter.
Antelope Valley Groundwater Cases
On November 29, 2004, a conglomerate of public water suppliers filed a cross-complaint in the Los Angeles Superior Court seeking a judicial determination of the rights to groundwater within the Antelope Valley basin, including the groundwater underlying the Company’s land near the Centennial project. Four phases of a multi-phase trial have been completed. Upon completion of the third phase, the court ruled that the groundwater basin is currently in overdraft and established a current total sustainable yield. The fourth phase of trial occurred in the first half of 2013 and resulted in confirmation of each party’s groundwater pumping for 2011 and 2012. The fifth phase of the trial commenced in February 2014, and concerned 1) whether the United States has a federal reserved water right to basin groundwater, and 2) the rights to return flows from imported water. The court heard evidence on the federal reserve right but continued the trial on the return flow issues while most of the parties to the adjudication discussed a settlement, including rights to return flows. In February 2015, more than 140 parties representing more than 99% of the current water use within the adjudication boundary agreed to a settlement. On March 4, 2015, the settling parties, including Tejon, submitted a Stipulation for Entry of Judgment and Physical Solution to the court for approval. On December 23, 2015, the court entered Judgment approving the Stipulation for Entry of Judgment and Physical Solution. The Company’s water supply plan for the Centennial project anticipated reliance on, among other sources, a certain quantity of groundwater underlying the Company’s lands in the Antelope Valley. The Company’s allocation in the Judgment is consistent with that amount. Prior to the Judgment becoming final, on February 19 and 22, 2016, several parties, including the Willis Class and Phelan Pinon Hills CSD, filed notices of appeal from the Judgment. Notwithstanding the appeals, the parties with assistance from the Court have begun establishment of the Watermaster and administration of the Physical Solution, consistent with the Judgment.

Summary and Status of Kern Water Bank Lawsuits
On June 3, 2010, the Central Delta and South Delta Water Agencies and several environmental groups, including the Center for Biological Diversity (collectively, “Central Delta”), filed a complaint in the Sacramento County Superior Court against the California Department of Water Resources, or DWR, Kern County Water Agency and a number of “real parties in interest,” including the Company and TCWD.  The lawsuit challenges certain amendments to the SWP contracts that were originally approved in 1995, known as the “Monterey Amendments.”

17



The original Environmental Impact Report, or EIR, for the Monterey Amendments was determined to be insufficient in an earlier lawsuit. The current lawsuit principally (i) challenges the adequacy of the remedial EIR that DWR prepared as a result of the original lawsuit and (ii) challenges the validity of the Monterey Amendments on various grounds, including the transfer of the Kern Water Bank, or KWB, from DWR to the Kern County Water Agency and in turn to the Kern Water Bank Authority, or KWBA, whose members are various Kern and Kings County interests, including TCWD, which TCWD has a 2% interest in the KWBA. A parallel lawsuit was also filed by Central Delta in Kern County Superior Court on July 2, 2010, against Kern County Water Agency, also naming the Company and TCWD as real parties in interest, which has been stayed pending the outcome of the other action against DWR.  The Company is named on the ground that it “controls” TCWD.  This lawsuit has since been moved to the Sacramento County Superior Court. Another lawsuit was filed in Kern County Superior Court on June 3, 2010, by two districts adjacent to the KWB, namely Rosedale Rio Bravo and Buena Vista Water Storage Districts, or Rosedale, asserting that the remedial EIR did not adequately evaluate potential impacts arising from operations of the KWB, but this lawsuit did not name the Company, only TCWD. TCWD has a contract right for water stored in the KWB and rights to recharge and withdraw water.  This lawsuit has since been moved to the Sacramento County Superior Court. In an initial favorable ruling on January 25, 2013, the court determined that the challenges to the validity of the Monterey Amendments, including the transfer of the KWB, were not timely and were barred by the statutes of limitation, the doctrine of laches, and by the annual validating statute. The substantive hearing on the challenges to the EIR was held on January 31, 2014. On March 5, 2014 the court issued a decision, rejecting all of Central Delta’s California Environmental Quality Act, or CEQA, claims, except the Rosedale claim, joined by Central Delta, that the EIR did not adequately evaluate future impacts from operation of the KWB, in particular potential impacts on groundwater and water quality.
On November 24, 2014, the court issued a writ of mandate that requires DWR to prepare a revised EIR regarding the Monterey Amendments evaluating the potential operational impacts of the KWB. The writ authorizes the continued operation of the KWB pending completion of the revised EIR subject to certain conditions including those described in an interim operating plan negotiated between the KWBA and Rosedale. The writ of mandate, as revised by the court, requires DWR to certify the revised EIR and file the return to the writ of mandate by September 28, 2016. On September 20, 2016 the Director of DWR (a) certified the Revised EIR as in compliance with CEQA, (b) adopted findings, a statement of overriding considerations, and a mitigation, monitoring and reporting program as required by CEQA, (c) made a new finding pertaining to carrying out the Monterey Amendments through continued use and operation of the KWB by the KWBA, and (d) caused a notice of determination to be filed with the Office of Planning and Resources of the State of California on September 22, 2016. On September 28, 2016, DWR filed with the Superior Court its return to the writ of mandate. The Superior Court has not scheduled a hearing on DWR’s return to the writ of mandate. To the extent that there may be an adverse outcome of the claims, the monetary value cannot be estimated at this time.
On November 24, 2014, the court entered a judgment in the Central Delta case (1) dismissing the challenges to the validity of the Monterey Amendments and the transfer of the KWB in their entirety and (2) granting in part, and denying, in part, the CEQA petition for writ of mandate. Central Delta has appealed the judgment and the KWBA and certain other parties have filed a cross-appeal with regard to certain defenses to the CEQA cause of action. The appeals are pending in the California Court of Appeal.
On December 3, 2014, the court entered judgment in the Rosedale case (i) in favor of Rosedale in the CEQA cause of action, and (ii) dismissing the declaratory relief cause of action. No appeal of the Rosedale judgment has been filed.
Proceedings Incidental to Business
From time to time, we are involved in other proceedings incidental to our business, including actions relating to employee claims, environmental law issues, real estate disputes, contractor disputes and grievance hearings before labor regulatory agencies.
The outcome of these other proceedings is not predictable. However, based on current circumstances, we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these other proceedings, after considering available defenses and any insurance coverage or indemnification rights, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows either individually or in the aggregate.
13.    RETIREMENT PLANS
The Company has a defined benefit plan that covers many of its employees, or the Benefit Plan. The benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s five-year final average salary. Contributions are intended to provide for benefits attributable to service both to-date and expected-to-be provided in the future. The Company funds the plan in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and the Pension Protection Act. The Company anticipates contributing approximately $450,000 to the plan during 2016.

18



Plan assets consist of equity, debt and short-term money market investment funds. The plan’s current investment policy targets 65% equities, 25% debt and 10% money market funds. Equity and debt investment percentages are allowed to fluctuate plus or minus 20% to take advantage of market conditions. As an example, equities could fluctuate from 78% to 52% of plan assets. At September 30, 2016, the investment mix was approximately 60% equity, 34% debt, and 6% money market funds. At December 31, 2015, the investment mix was approximately 61% equity, 33% debt and 6% money market funds. Equity investments consist of a combination of individual equity securities plus value funds, growth funds, large cap funds and international stock funds. Debt investments consist of U.S. Treasury securities and investment grade corporate debt. The weighted-average discount rate used in determining the periodic pension cost is 4.6% in 2016 and 2015. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is 7.5% in 2016 and 2015. The long-term rate of return on plan assets is based on the historical returns within the plan and expectations for future returns.

The resort/residential real estate development segment is actively involved in the land entitlement and development process internally and through a joint venture. The segment incurs costs and expenses related to its development activities, but currently generates no revenue. The segment produced losses of $1,252,000 and $1,885,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The segment produced losses of $323,000 and $558,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
The mineral resources segment receives oil and mineral royalties in addition to periodic reimbursable costs from lessors. The segment also generates revenues through water sales. The revenue components of the mineral resources segment were as follows:

15.    INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED AND CONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES
The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting unless the venture is a variable interest entity, or VIE, and meets the requirements for consolidation or is a voting interest entity and is controlled by the Company. The Company’s investment in its unconsolidated joint ventures at September 30, 2016 was $32,255,000. The equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures was $2,353,000 and $5,650,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. The Company’s current joint ventures are as follows:
Petro Travel Plaza Holdings LLC – TA/Petro is an unconsolidated joint venture with TravelCenters of America, LLC for the development and management of travel plazas and convenience stores. The Company has 50% voting rights and shares 60% of profit and losses in this joint venture. It houses multiple commercial eating establishments as well as diesel and gasoline operations in TRCC. The Company does not control the investment due to its having only 50% voting rights, and because our partner in the joint venture is the managing partner and performs all of the day-to-day operations and has significant decision making authority regarding key business components such as fuel inventory and pricing at the facility. At September 30, 2016, the Company had an equity investment balance of $16,566,000 in this joint venture.
Majestic Realty Co. – Majestic Realty Co., or Majestic, is a privately-held developer and owner of master planned business parks in the United States. The Company partnered with Majestic to form two 50/50 joint ventures to acquire, develop, manage, and operate industrial real estate at TRCC. The partners have equal voting rights and equally share in the profit and loss of the joint venture. At September 30, 2016, the Company's investment in these joint ventures was $1,888,000, which includes our outside basis.
In August 2016, we partnered with Majestic to form TRC-MRC 2, LLC to acquire, lease, and maintain a fully occupied warehouse at TRCC-West. The partnership acquired the 651,909 square foot building for $24,773,000 and was largely financed through a $21,080,000 promissory note guaranteed by both partners. The note matures in September 2020 and currently has an outstanding principal balance, less loan fees, of $20,926,000.
In September 2016, TRC-MRC 1, LLC was formed to develop and operate an approximately 480,480 square foot industrial building at TRCC-East. The joint venture is currently in the initial planning and design phase of the industrial building.
Rockefeller Joint Ventures – The Company has three joint ventures with Rockefeller Group Development Corporation or Rockefeller. At September 30, 2016, the Company’s combined equity investment balance in these three joint ventures was $13,801,000.
Two joint ventures are for the development of buildings on approximately 91 acres and are part of an agreement for the potential development of up to 500 acres of land in TRCC including pursuing Foreign Trade Zone, or FTZ, designation and development of the property within the FTZ for warehouse distribution and light manufacturing. The Company owns a 50% interest in each of the joint ventures. Currently the Five West Parcel LLC joint venture owns and leases a 606,000 square foot building to Dollar General which has now been extended to April 2022, and includes an option to extend for an additional three years. For operating revenue, please see the following table. The Five West Parcel joint venture currently has an outstanding term loan with a balance of $10,385,000 that matures on May 5, 2022. The Company and Rockefeller guarantee the performance of the debt. The second of these joint ventures, 18-19 West LLC, was formed in August 2009 through the contribution of 61.5 acres of land by the Company, which is being held for future development. Both of these joint ventures are being accounted for under the equity method due to both members having significant participating rights in the management of the ventures.

21



The third joint venture is the TRCC/Rock Outlet Center LLC joint venture that was formed during the second quarter of 2013 to develop, own, and manage a net leasable 326,000 square foot outlet center on land at TRCC-East. The cost of the outlet center was approximately $87,000,000 and was funded through a construction loan for up to 60% of the costs and the remaining 40% was through equity contributions from the two members. The Company controls 50% of the voting interests of TRCC/Rock Outlet Center LLC, thus it does not control by voting interest alone. The Company is the named managing member, as such we considered the presumption that a managing member controls the limited liability company. The managing member's responsibilities relate to the routine day-to-day activities of TRCC/Rock Outlet Center LLC. However, all operating decisions during development and operations, including the setting and monitoring of the budget, leasing, marketing, financing and selection of the contractor for any of the project's construction, are jointly made by both members of the joint venture. Therefore, the Company concluded that both members have significant participating rights that are sufficient to overcome the presumption of the Company controlling the joint venture through it being named the managing member. Therefore, the investment in TRCC/Rock Outlet Center LLC is being accounted for under the equity method. The TRCC/Rock Outlet Center LLC joint venture is separate from the aforementioned agreement to potentially develop up to 500 acres of land in TRCC. During the fourth quarter of 2013, the TRCC/Rock Outlet Center LLC joint venture entered into a construction line of credit agreement with a financial institution for $52,000,000 that, as of September 30, 2016, had an outstanding balance of $51,378,000. The Company and Rockefeller guarantee the performance of the debt.
Centennial Founders, LLC – Centennial Founders, LLC is a joint venture with TRI Pointe Homes (formerly Pardee Homes), Lewis Investment Company, and CalAtlantic Group Inc. (formerly Standard Pacific Corp.) that was organized to pursue the entitlement and development of land that the Company owns in Los Angeles County. Based on the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Centennial Founders, LLC and the change in control and funding that resulted from the amended agreement, Centennial Founders, LLC qualified as a VIE, beginning in the third quarter of 2009 and the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary. As a result, Centennial Founders, LLC has been consolidated into our financial statements beginning in that quarter. Our partners retained a noncontrolling interest in the joint venture. At September 30, 2016 the Company had a 76.32% ownership position in Centennial Founders, LLC.
The Company’s investment balance in its unconsolidated joint ventures differs from its respective capital accounts in the respective joint ventures. The differential represents the difference between the cost basis of assets contributed by the Company and the agreed upon contribution value of the assets contributed.
Unaudited condensed balance sheet information of the Company’s unconsolidated and consolidated joint ventures as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and unaudited condensed statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 are as follows:

Overview
We are a diversified real estate development and agribusiness company committed to responsibly using our land and resources to meet the housing, employment, and lifestyle needs of Californians and to create value for our shareholders. In support of these objectives, we have been investing in land planning and entitlement activities for new industrial and master planned communities and in infrastructure improvements within our active industrial development. Our prime asset is approximately 270,000 acres of contiguous, largely undeveloped land that, at its most southerly border, is 60 miles north of Los Angeles and, at its most northerly border, is 15 miles east of Bakersfield.
Our primary business objective is to maximize long-term shareholder value through the monetization of our land-based assets.  A key element of our strategy is to entitle and then develop large-scale residential master planned communities to serve the growing populations of Southern and Central California.   We are currently engaged in commercial sales and leasing at our fully operational commercial/industrial center.  All of these efforts are supported by diverse revenue streams generated from other operations, including farming, mineral resources, ranch operations and our various joint ventures.
We currently operate in five business segments: commercial/industrial real estate, resort/residential real estate, mineral resources, farming, and ranch operations.
Activities within the commercial/industrial real estate segment include: entitling, planning, and permitting of land for development; construction of infrastructure; construction of pre-leased buildings; construction of buildings to be leased or sold; and the sale of land to third parties for their own development. The commercial/industrial segment also includes activities related to power plant leases, communications leases, and landscape maintenance services. The primary commercial/industrial development is the Tejon Ranch Commerce Center, or TRCC. TRCC includes developments east and west of Interstate 5 at TRCC-East and TRCC-West, respectively.
We are also involved in multiple joint ventures with several partners. Our joint venture with TravelCenters of America, or TA/Petro, owns and operates two travel and truck stop facilities, and also operates five separate gas stations with convenience stores within TRCC-West and TRCC-East. We are involved in three joint ventures with Rockefeller Development Group: Five West Parcel LLC, which owns a 606,000 square foot building in TRCC-West that is fully leased; 18-19 West LLC, which owns 61.5 acres of land for future development within TRCC-West; and TRCC/Rock Outlet Center LLC, which operates the Outlets at Tejon, a net leasable 326,000 square foot shopping experience with 70 premiere retailers. Lastly, we have partnered with Majestic Realty Co. to develop, manage, and operate industrial buildings within TRCC. The joint ventures help us to expand our commercial/industrial business activities within TRCC.

24


The resort/residential real estate segment is actively involved in the land entitlement and development process through wholly-owned subsidiaries and a joint venture. Our active developments within resort/residential are Mountain Village at Tejon, or MV, Centennial at Tejon, or Centennial, and Grapevine at Tejon, or Grapevine. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 for a more detailed description of our active developments within resort/residential
Our mineral resources segment generates revenues from oil and gas royalty leases, rock and aggregate mining leases, a lease with National Cement, and water sales.
The farming segment produces revenues from the sale of wine grapes, almonds, pistachios, and hay.
Our ranch operations segment consist of game management revenues and ancillary land uses such as grazing leases and filming. Ranch operations is charged with the upkeep, maintenance, and security of all 270,000 acres of land. Within game management we operate High Desert Hunt Club, a premier upland bird hunting club, along with various game hunting memberships.
For the first nine months of 2016 we had net income attributable to common stockholders of $845,000 compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $1,235,000 for the first nine months of 2015. This decrease was primarily attributable to declines in crop revenues, a result of reduced inventory carryover from the 2015 harvest and falling commodity prices. Oil royalties have also declined as a result of depressed oil prices leading to lower production volumes. These declines were partially offset by an increase in income from our unconsolidated joint ventures.
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations provides a narrative discussion of our results of operations. It contains the results of operations for each operating segment of the business and is followed by a discussion of our financial position. It is useful to read the business segment information in conjunction with Note 14 (Business Segments) of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our interim financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if (1) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (2) changes in the estimates that are likely to occur from period to period, or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, impairment of long-lived assets, capitalization of costs, profit recognition related to land sales, stock compensation, and our defined benefit retirement plan. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Our critical accounting policies have not changed since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. Please refer to that filing for a description of our critical accounting policies.
Results of Operations
Comparison of nine months ended September 30, 2016 to nine months ended September 30, 2015
Total revenues for the first nine months of 2016 were $32,881,000 compared to $35,579,000 for the first nine months of 2015. This decrease of $2,698,000, or 8%, is primarily attributable to a decline in farming revenues of $1,428,000 and mineral resources revenues of $1,122,000 resulting from reduced water sales and oil royalties.
Commercial/industrial real estate segment revenues were $6,534,000 for the first nine months of 2016, an increase of $344,000, or 6%, compared to the first nine months of 2015. Leasing activity is driving our commercial revenue growth. Most notably, we generated $195,000 in additional leasing revenues after delivering a multi-tenant building to Habit Burger and Baja Fresh during the first quarter of 2016. Additionally, we recognized $53,000 in additional leasing revenue from Pieology which was placed into service during the second quarter of 2015. Following the growth of TRCC East, landscaping revenues increased $83,000.
Commercial/industrial real estate segment expenses were $5,140,000 during the first nine months of 2016, an increase of $256,000, or 5%, compared to the same period in 2015. This variance is a result of increases in professional services of $106,000, maintenance association fees of $58,000, and repairs and maintenance of $44,000.
Resort/residential real estate segment expenses were $1,252,000 during the first nine months of 2016, a decrease of $633,000, or 34%. The decrease is attributed to additional capitalization of payroll and overhead costs of $431,000 that were identified to be incremental to our master plan development projects. In addition, there were decreases in professional services of $91,000, property taxes of $74,000, and fees of $56,000.

Mineral resources segment revenues were $13,052,000 for the first nine months of 2016, a decrease of $1,122,000, or 8%, compared to the same period in 2015. The $1,122,000 decrease resulted from a decrease in oil royalty revenues of $1,171,000 driven by declines in both the price per barrel and production volume. Production for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was 230,131 and 357,507 barrels, respectively. The average price per barrel of oil for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was $35 and $49, respectively. We expect no new oil drilling activity and continued slowing in production through 2016 based on current oil prices. Water sales volumes decreased from 7,922 acre feet in 2015 to 7,285 in 2016 resulting in a revenue decrease of $564,000. Offsetting the decreases were increases in recoverable costs, rock aggregate royalties and cement royalties of $328,000, $184,000 and $80,000, respectively.
Mineral resources segment expenses were $7,160,000 for the first nine months of 2016, an increase of $137,000, or 2%, compared to the same period in 2015. This variance is largely due to increases in fuel costs of $76,000 related to transferring and banking water. Also contributing to the increase was a higher cost of sales per acre-foot of water.
Farming segment revenues were $11,042,000 for the first nine months of 2016, a decrease of $1,428,000, or 11%, compared to the same period in 2015. The $1,428,000 decrease is primarily attributed to the following:
2015 almond carryover crop revenues decreased $3,194,000. The reduction in sales resulted from our decision to sell more almonds in 2015 in order to take advantage of higher commodity prices resulting in a smaller carryover crop. Comparatively, we sold 418,645 pounds and 886,366 pounds during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
2016 almond current crop revenues decreased $1,219,000. Commodity prices, timing of sales and reduction of yields as a result of our decision to replant older crops drove the decline in revenues. Comparatively, we sold 403,819 pounds and 555,408 pounds during the during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
2015 pistachio carryover crop revenues decreased $2,440,000. Decreases in commodity prices and units sold drove the decrease. Comparatively, we sold 50,648 pounds and 167,393 pounds during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
2016 pistachio current crop revenues increased $5,544,000. Revenues increased because of improved crop yields in 2016 when compared to 2015. Crop yields were 3,200,000 pounds and 73,000 pounds during 2016 and 2015, respectively. The mild winter of 2015, had an adverse effect on our 2015 crop whereby 90% of our pistachio crop yielded blanks. We sold 2,848,000 pounds and 63,507 pounds during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Farming segment expenses were $10,637,000 for the first nine months of 2016, a decrease of $1,073,000, or 9%, compared to the same period in 2015. The decline in carryover almond sales accounted for $1,004,000 of the decrease in farming expenses.
Ranch operations revenues were $2,253,000 for the first nine months of 2016, a decrease of $492,000, or 18%, compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease is attributed to a $334,000 decrease in game management revenues. Also contributing to the decrease is a drought clause taking effect within our grazing leases, amidst the California drought, of $173,000.
Ranch operations expenses were $4,263,000 for the first nine months of 2016, a decrease of $423,000, or 9%, compared to the same period in 2015. This variance is in-line with our expectations given the activity volume within Ranch Operations. The decrease resulted from declines in staffing costs, outside services, supply costs, and repairs and maintenance of $125,000, $128,000, $82,000, $47,000 respectively.
Corporate general and administrative costs increased $48,000, or 1%, to $9,262,000 during the first nine months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. During the first nine months of 2016, payroll and overhead decreased $477,000 resulting from a reduction in full-time employees. The decrease in payroll was offset by increases in stock compensation of $269,000 resulting from meeting performance milestones, political contributions of $166,000 and insurance of $88,000.
Our share of earnings from our joint ventures was $5,650,000, an increase of $789,000, or 16%, during the first nine months of 2016 when compared to the same period in 2015, primarily due to a $569,000 increase in our share of earnings from our TA/Petro joint venture. The improvement in operations within the TA/Petro joint venture is driven by increased diesel and gas sales volume of 1,415,000 gallons and 667,000 gallons, respectively. The improvement in the volume of fuel sales is continuing to be driven by increased traffic within TRCC as a result of expanded offerings at TRCC East such as Pieology and Starbucks, and the new Shell gas station. Fuel margins for the TA/Petro joint venture were 21% and 15% as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, improving net income. The remainder of the increase is attributed to improved operating results from the Outlets at Tejon.

Comparison of three months ended September 30, 2016 to three months ended September 30, 2015
Total revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 were $13,079,000 compared to $11,946,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. This increase of $1,133,000, or 9%, is primarily attributable to improvements in farming revenues driven by pistachio sales.
Commercial/industrial real estate segment revenues were $2,221,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $120,000, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2015. Leasing activity is driving our commercial revenue growth. Most notably, we generated $66,000 in additional leasing revenues during the third quarter after delivering a multi-tenant building to Habit Burger and Baja Fresh during the first quarter of 2016. Also during the third quarter, we earned $60,000 a one-time early termination fee from a tenant. We have identified a new tenant who will be taking possession of the vacated unit during the fourth quarter of 2016.
Commercial/industrial real estate segment expenses were $1,747,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $148,000, or 9%, compared to the same period in 2015. The increase resulted from writing off unamortized tenant allowances of $53,000. Additionally, repairs and maintenance costs increased $85,000.
Resort/residential real estate segment expenses were $323,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $235,000, or 42%. The decrease comprised of reductions in professional services, fees, and compensation costs of 79,000, $71,000, and $19,000, respectively.
Mineral resources segment revenues were $1,125,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $197,000, or 15%, compared to the same period in 2015. For the quarter, oil royalties decreased $246,000, a result of reduced commodity prices and production volume discussed above. Improvements in rock aggregate production and recoverable costs of $24,000 and $33,000, respectively, helped to offset declines in oil royalties.
Mineral resources segment expenses were $667,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $61,000, or 10%, compared to the same period in 2015. The increase is attributed to increase fuel charges related to transferring and banking water.
Farming segment revenues were $9,319,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $1,243,000, or 15%, compared to the same period in 2015. The $1,243,000 increase is attributable to the following:
2015 almond carryover crop revenues decreased $1,158,000. A majority of the decrease is attributed to a $1,053,000 decrease in market price adjustments occurring during the third quarter of 2016 as compared to the third quarter of 2015. This is consistent with the decline in commodity prices and units sold during 2016.
2016 almond current crop revenues decreased $1,219,000. Commodity prices, timing of sales and reduction of yields as a result of our decision to replant older crops drove the decline in revenues. Comparatively, we sold 403,819 pounds and 555,408 pounds during the quarters ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
2015 pistachio carryover crop revenues decreased $1,935,000. Decreases in commodity prices and units sold drove the decrease. Comparatively, we sold 3,052 pounds and 56,328 pounds during the quarters September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
2016 pistachio current crop revenues increased $5,544,000. Revenues increased because of improved crop yields in 2016 when compared to 2015. The mild winter of 2015, had an adverse effect on our crop whereby 90% of our pistachio crop yielded blanks. Crop yields were 3,200,000 pounds and 73,000 pounds during 2016 and 2015, respectively. Comparatively, we sold 2,848,000 pounds and 63,507 pounds during the quarters ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Farming segment expenses were $7,781,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $342,000, or 4%, compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease is attributed to the declines in commodity sales.
Ranch operations revenues were $414,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $33,000, or 7%, compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease is attributed to declines in game management revenues.
Ranch operations expenses were $1,374,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $300,000, or 18%, compared to the same period in 2015. This variance resulted from decreases in professional and other services of $101,000, compensation of $77,000, repairs and maintenance of $55,000, rentals of $33,000, and supplies of $16,000.
Corporate general and administrative costs were $3,096,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $169,000, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2015. For the quarter, professional service costs increased $269,000 resulting from increased legal and information security costs. Additionally, there was an increase in political contributions of $72,000. The increases noted were offset by an overall reduction in corporate compensation of $162,000.

27


Our share of earnings from our joint ventures was $2,353,000, an increase of $298,000, or 15%, during the quarter ended September 30, 2016 when compared to the same period in 2015, primarily due to an $241,000 increase in our share of earnings from our TA/Petro joint venture. The improvement in operations within the TA/Petro joint venture is driven by increased diesel and gas volumes of 375,000 gallons and 329,000, respectively. Fuel margins for the TA/Petro joint venture were 19% and 17% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The remainder of the increase is attributed to improved operating results from the Outlets at Tejon.
General Outlook
Thus far in 2016 our commercial retail activity has continued to grow as new leases have come on-line with Habit Burger and Baja Fresh. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2016 we had no leases that expired, nor did we have any material lease renewals. Our TA/Petro joint venture began construction of an Arby's that is scheduled to open in early 2017.
On August 6, 2016, we entered into a limited liability company agreement with Majestic Realty Co., a Los Angeles based commercial/industrial developer, for the purchase of, ownership of, and management of a fully-leased, 651,909 square foot industrial building located at Tejon Ranch Commerce Center. We have a 50% interest in this joint venture.
On September 19, 2016, we entered into a second joint venture with Majestic Realty Co. to develop, construct, lease, and manage an industrial building with approximately 480,000 square feet on the Company’s property at Tejon Ranch Commerce Center-East. We have a 50% interest in this joint venture.
The logistics operators currently located within our commerce center have demonstrated success in serving all of California and the western region of the United States and we are building from their success in our marketing efforts. We will continue to focus our efforts for TRCC-East and TRCC-West, on the significant labor and logistical benefits of our site, the pro-business approach of Kern County, and the success that the current tenants and owners within our development have experienced to capture more of the warehouse distribution market. Our strategy fits within the logistics model that many companies are using, which favors large centralized distribution facilities which have been strategically located to maximize the balance of inbound and outbound efficiencies rather than a number of decentralized smaller distribution centers. The world class logistics operators located within TRCC have demonstrated success through utilization of this model. They are also demonstrating success with e-commerce fulfillment. We believe that our ability to provide fully entitled shovel-ready land parcels to support buildings of any size, especially buildings 1.0 million feet or larger can provide us with a potential marketing advantage in the future. We are also expanding our marketing efforts to include industrial users in the Santa Clarita Valley of northern Los Angeles County and the northern part of the San Fernando Valley due to the limited availability of new product and high real estate costs in these locations. Tenants in these geographic areas are typically users of relatively smaller facilities.
A potential disadvantage to our development strategy is our distance from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach in comparison to the warehouse/distribution centers located in the Inland Empire, a large industrial area located east of Los Angeles, which continues its expansion eastward beyond Riverside, and San Bernardino to include Perris, Moreno Valley, and Beaumont. As development in the Inland Empire continues to move east and farther away from the ports, our potential disadvantage of our distance from the ports is being mitigated. Strong demand for large distribution facilities is driving development farther east in a search for large entitled parcels. Through the third quarter of 2016, vacancy rates in the Inland Empire were comparable to 2015, primarily due to demand keeping pace with the development of new buildings for lease. Without the increase in new development the vacancy rate would have declined. As lease rates increase in the Inland Empire and northern Los Angeles County, we may begin to have a greater pricing advantage due to our low land basis.
We expect that the commercial/industrial segment will continue to incur costs at current levels, net of amounts capitalized, primarily related to marketing costs, commissions, planning costs, and staffing costs as we continue forward with our development plans.
Most of the expenditures and capital investment incurred within our resort/residential segment will be focused on the achievement of entitlement for Grapevine, Centennial, and tentative tract maps for MV. The tentative tract maps process is expected to be completed in late 2017.
Due to our exposure to the commodity markets, we are unable to accurately predict revenue and we cannot pass on to our customers any cost increases caused by general inflation, except to the extent such inflation is reflected in market conditions and commodity prices. All of our crops are sensitive to the size of each year’s world crop. Large crops in California and abroad can rapidly depress prices. Thus far in 2016, prices for almonds and pistachios have declined in comparison to recent years as a result of increasing almond and pistachio supply. Based on current global inventory estimates, lower prices could carry into 2017.
Thus far, wine grape and almond yields are comparable with 2015 yields. Pistachio yields improved drastically from the historical lows experienced in 2015.

28


Because of the oversupply in the oil markets, we expect to continue to see lower oil prices as compared to 2015, which will continue to negatively impact us through the remainder of 2016.
The operations of the Company are seasonal and future results of operations cannot be predicted based on quarterly results. Future real estate sales and leasing activity are dependent on market circumstances and specific opportunities and therefore are difficult to predict from period to period. Historically, the Company's largest percentages of farming revenues are recognized during the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year.
For further discussion of the risks and uncertainties that could potentially adversely affect us, please refer to Part I, Item 7 – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, or Annual Report, and to Part I, Item 1A - "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report. We continue to be involved in various legal proceedings related to leased acreage. For a further discussion, please refer to Note 12 (Commitments and Contingencies) of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.
Income Taxes
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company incurred a net income tax expense of $503,000 compared to a net income tax expense of $464,000 for the nine months ended 2015. These represent effective income tax rates of approximately 39% and 28% for the nine months ended 2016 and, 2015, respectively. As of September 30, 2016, we did not have income taxes payable. The Company classifies interest and penalties incurred on tax payments as income tax expenses.
Cash Flow and Liquidity
We manage our cash and marketable securities along with cash flow to allow us to pursue our strategies of land entitlement, development, farming, and conservation. Accordingly, we have established well-defined priorities for our available cash, including investing in core business segments to achieve profitable future growth. We have historically funded our operations with cash flows from operating activities, investment proceeds, short-term borrowings from our bank credit facilities, and long-term debt tied to revenue producing assets. In the past, we have also issued common stock and used the proceeds for capital investments. To enhance shareholder value, we will continue to make investments in our real estate segments to secure land entitlement approvals, build infrastructure for our developments, and acquire water rights to ensure adequate future water supply. Within our farming segment, we will make investments as needed to improve efficiency and add capacity to its operations when it is profitable to do so.
Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $31,042,000 at September 30, 2016, a decrease of $3,703,000, or 11%, from December 31, 2015. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities decreased during the first nine months of September 30, 2016 due to property and equipment expenditures and real estate investments, which included infrastructure development costs, and increases in farming inventory. These decreases were partially offset by water sale proceeds, reimbursement proceeds for public infrastructure costs from the East CFD, and use of our revolving line of credit.

Operating Activities
During the first nine months of 2016, our operations provided $1,413,000 of cash primarily related to distributions from our joint ventures of $4,500,000 offset by payments on current liabilities and farm crop inventory costs.
During the first nine months of 2015, our operations provided $1,541,000 of cash primarily attributable to net income including adjustments for non-cash items, partially offset by increases in farming inventories.
Investing Activities
During the first nine months of 2016, investing activities used $10,414,000 as a result of $19,760,000 in capital expenditures. Capital expenditures include predevelopment activities for our master plan communities which amounted to $3,914,000 for MV, $3,663,000 for Grapevine, and $3,832,000 for Centennial. At TRCC East, we spent $3,345,000 for infrastructure projects along with completing the multi-tenant building housing Baja Fresh and Habit Burger. Within our farming segment, we spent $1,837,000 replacing old machinery and equipment along with developing a new almond orchard. We spent $1,845,000 within our mineral resources group for new wells and water turnouts. Within ranch operations we acquired $476,000 in new machinery and equipment. Our capital outlays were offset by reimbursements for public infrastructure costs through the East CFD and other reimbursements of $4,650,000. Additionally, we received $4,966,000 in net proceeds from marketable securities transactions.

29


We continuously evaluate our short-term and long-term capital investment needs. Based on the timing of capital investments, we may supplement our current cash, marketable securities, and operational funding sources through the sale of common stock and the use of additional debt.

During the first nine months of 2015, investing activities used $5,038,000 of cash primarily as a result of $18,968,000 in capital expenditures consisting of $6,425,000 of investments in TRCC infrastructure, primarily associated with expansion of road infrastructure, utilities, and buildings on land at TRCC-East, $3,306,000 related to the Grapevine Development Area for entitlement activities, $5,263,000 related to TMV pre-development activities, and $2,392,000 related to Centennial Founders LLC for entitlement activities. The remaining capital expenditures related to ordinary capital expenditures such as farming equipment, IT equipment replacements and computer software. These expenditures were partially offset by net proceeds of $7,932,000 from the sale and maturity of marketable securities, reimbursements of $4,971,000 for public infrastructure costs through the East CFD, and distributions of $1,100,000 from our Rockefeller unconsolidated joint venture partner.
Our estimated capital investment for the remainder of 2016 will be primarily related to real estate projects. Estimated capital investment includes approximately $2,200,000 of infrastructure development at TRCC-East. This new infrastructure is to support continued commercial retail and industrial development within TRCC-East and to expand water facilities to support future demand. We expect to possibly invest $860,000 for land planning and entitlement activities for the Grapevine, $534,000 for developing tentative tract maps for MV, and $900,000 for entitlement work for Centennial. We will continue to add to our current water assets and water infrastructure as opportunities arise to help secure our ability to supply water to our real estate and farming activities and as an investment, since we believe that the cost of water in California will continue to increase and expect to invest up to $1,000,000 in water assets and infrastructure. We are also planning to invest approximately $200,000 for farming equipment, almond orchards, and grape vines.
Financing Activities
During the first nine months of 2016, financing activities provided $10,496,000 in cash mainly due to the timing of drawdowns and repayments on the Company's line of credit. As of September 30, 2016, there was an outstanding balance of $11,000,000 on our revolving line of credit. The use of our line of credit primarily reflects the cyclical nature of cash flow in our farming segment as inventory costs build as we move into the second half of the year and the harvest season begins.
During the first nine months of 2015, financing activities generated $1,371,000 in cash mainly due to the timing of draw downs on the Company's line of credit. At September 30, 2015, there was an outstanding balance of $8,940,000 on our revolving line of credit. Cash used in financing activities was also tied to the buyback of stock at time of the vesting of stock grants for the payment of payroll taxes.
It is difficult to accurately predict cash flows due to the nature of our businesses and fluctuating economic conditions. Our earnings and cash flows will be affected from period to period by the commodity nature of our farming operations, the timing of sales and leases of property within our development projects, and the beginning of development within our residential projects. The timing of sales and leases within our development projects is difficult to predict due to the time necessary to complete the development process and negotiate sales or lease contracts. Often, the timing aspect of land development can lead to particular years or periods having more or less earnings than comparable periods. Based on our experience, we believe we will have adequate operating cash flows and availability on our line of credit over the next twelve months to fund ongoing operations.
Capital Structure and Financial Condition
At September 30, 2016, total capitalization at book value was $407,491,000 consisting of $73,860,000 of long-term debt and $333,631,000 of equity, resulting in a long-term debt-to-total-capitalization ratio of approximately 18.1%, which is similar to the long-term debt-to-total-capitalization ratio at December 31, 2015.
The Company has a Term Note and a Revolving Line of Credit Note, with Wells Fargo, or collectively the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility consists of a $70,000,000 term note, or Term Note, and a $30,000,000 revolving line of credit, or RLC. Funds from the Term Note were used to finance the Company's purchase of DMB TMV LLC’s interest in Tejon Mountain Village LLC as disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 16, 2014. Any future borrowings under the RLC will be used for ongoing working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes. To maintain availability of funds under the RLC, undrawn amounts under the RLC will accrue a commitment fee of 10 basis points per annum. The Company's ability to borrow additional funds in the future under the RLC is subject to compliance with certain financial covenants and making certain representations and warranties. At the Company’s option, the interest rate on the RLC can float at 1.50% over a selected LIBOR or can be fixed at 1.50% above LIBOR for a fixed rate term. During the term of the Credit Facility (which matures in September 2019), we can borrow at any time and partially or wholly repay any outstanding borrowings and then re-borrow, as necessary. At September 30, 2016 the RLC had an outstanding balance of $11,000,000. At December 31, 2015, the RLC had no outstanding balance.

30


The interest rate per annum applicable to the Term Note is LIBOR (as defined in the Term Note) plus a margin of 170 basis points. The interest rate for the term of the note has been fixed through the use of an interest rate swap at a rate of 4.11%. The Term Note requires interest only payments for the first two years of the term and thereafter requires monthly amortization payments pursuant to a schedule set forth in the Term Note, with the final outstanding principal amount due October 5, 2024. The Company may make voluntary prepayments on the Term Note at any time without penalty (excluding any applicable LIBOR or interest rate swap breakage costs). Each optional prepayment will be applied to reduce the most remote principal payment then unpaid. The Credit Facility is secured by the Company's farmland and farm assets, which include equipment, crops and crop receivables and the power plant lease and lease site, and related accounts and other rights to payment and inventory.
The Credit Facility requires compliance with three financial covenants: (a) total liabilities divided by tangible net worth not greater than 0.75 to 1.0 at each quarter end; (b) a debt service coverage ratio not less than 1.25 to 1.00 as of each quarter end on a rolling four quarter basis; and (c) maintain liquid assets equal to or greater than $20,000,000. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.
We also have a promissory note agreement to pay a principal amount of $4,750,000 with CMFG Life Insurance Company, to pay principal and interest due monthly. The interest rate on this promissory note is 4.25% per annum, with principal and interest payments of $102,700 ending on September 1, 2028. The current outstanding balance is $4,025,000. The proceeds from this promissory note were used to eliminate debt that had been previously used to provide long-term financing for a building being leased to Starbucks and provide additional working capital for future investment. The balance of this long-term debt instrument listed above approximates the fair value of the instrument.
Our current and future capital resource requirements will be provided by current cash and marketable securities, cash flow from on-going operations, proceeds from the sale of developed and undeveloped parcels, potential sales of assets, additional use of debt, proceeds from the reimbursement of public infrastructure costs through Community Facilities District bond debt (described below under “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements”), and the issuance of common stock. During April 2016, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that went effective in May 2016. Under the shelf registration statement, we may offer and sell in the future one or more offerings, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants or any combination of the foregoing.
As noted above, at September 30, 2016, we had $31,042,000 in cash and securities and had $19,000,000 available on our RLC to meet any short-term liquidity needs.
We continue to expect that substantial future investments will be required in order to develop our land assets. In order to meet these long-term capital requirements, we may need to issue common stock and secure additional debt financing and continue to renew our existing credit facilities. In addition, we will use other capital alternatives such as entering into joint ventures. We will use a combination of the above funding sources to properly match funding requirements with the assets or development project being funded. There is no assurance in the future that we can obtain financing or that we can obtain financing at favorable terms. We believe we have adequate capital resources to fund our cash needs and our capital investment requirements as described earlier in the cash flow and liquidity discussions.

The categories above include purchase obligations and other long-term liabilities reflected on our balance sheet under GAAP. A “purchase obligation” is defined in Item 303(a)(5)(ii)(D) of Regulation S-K as “an agreement to purchase goods or services that is enforceable and legally binding on the registrant that specifies all significant terms, including: fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction.” Based on this definition, the table above includes only those contracts that include fixed or minimum obligations. It does not include normal purchases, which are made in the ordinary course of business.
Our financial obligations to the Tejon Ranch Conservancy are prescribed in the Conservation Agreement. Our advances to the Tejon Ranch Conservancy are dependent on the occurrence of certain events and their timing, and are therefore subject to change in amount and period. The amounts included above are the minimum amounts we anticipate contributing through the year 2021, at which time our current contractual obligation terminates.
As discussed in Note 13 (Retirement Plans) of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, we have long-term liabilities for deferred employee compensation, including pension and supplemental retirement plans. Payments in the above table reflect estimates of future defined benefit plan contributions from the Company to the plan trust, estimates of payments to employees from the plan trust, and estimates of future payments to employees from the Company that are in the SERP program. We estimate that we will contribute approximately $450,000 to the defined benefit plan during 2016.
Our cash contract commitments consist of contracts in various stages of completion related to infrastructure development within our industrial developments and entitlement costs related to our industrial and residential development projects.
Our operating lease obligations are for office equipment, several vehicles, and a temporary trailer providing office space and average approximately $25,000 per month. At the present time, we do not have any capital lease obligations or purchase obligations outstanding.
Estimated water payments include SWP contracts with WRMWDS, TCWD, TLBWSD, and DRWD. These contracts for the supply of future water run through 2035. In addition, in late 2013 we purchased the assignment of a contract to purchase water. The assigned water contract is with Nickel Family, LLC and obligates us to purchase 6,693 acre-feet of water annually starting in 2014 and running to 2044. Please refer to Note 5 (Long-Term Water Assets) of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding water assets.

The Tejon Ranch Public Facilities Financing Authority, or TRPFFA, is a joint powers authority formed by Kern County and TCWD to finance public infrastructure within the Company’s Kern County developments. TRPFFA created two CFDs, the West CFD and the East CFD. The West CFD has placed liens on 420 acres of the Company’s land to secure payment of special taxes related to $28,620,000 of bond debt sold by TRPFFA for TRCC-West. The East CFD has placed liens on 1,931 acres of the Company’s land to secure payments of special taxes related to $55,000,000 of bond debt sold by TRPFFA for TRCC-East. At TRCC-West, the West CFD has no additional bond debt approved for issuance. At TRCC-East, the East CFD has approximately $65,000,000 of additional bond debt authorized by TRPFFA.
In connection with the sale of bonds there is a standby letter of credit for $5,426,000 related to the issuance of East CFD bonds. The standby letter of credit is in place to provide additional credit enhancement and cover approximately two years of interest on the outstanding bonds. This letter of credit will not be drawn upon unless the Company, as the largest landowner in the CFD, fails to make its property tax payments. As development occurs within TRCC-East there is a mechanism in the bond documents to reduce the amount of the letter of credit. The Company believes that the letter of credit will never be drawn upon. This letter of credit is for a two-year period of time and will be renewed in two-year intervals as necessary. The annual cost related to the letter of credit is approximately $83,000. The assessment of each individual property sold or leased within each CFD is not determinable at this time because it is based on the current tax rate and the assessed value of the property at the time of sale or on its assessed value at the time it is leased to a third-party. Accordingly, the Company is not required to recognize an obligation at September 30, 2016.
At September 30, 2016, aggregate outstanding debt of unconsolidated joint ventures was $97,963,000. We provided a guarantee on $82,689,000 of this debt, relating to our joint ventures with Rockefeller and Majestic. We do not provide a guarantee on the $15,274,000 of debt related to our joint venture with TA/Petro.
Non-GAAP Measures
EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, a non-GAAP financial measure, and is used by us and others as a supplemental measure of performance and liquidity. We use Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of our core operations, for financial and operational decision making, and as a supplemental or additional means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA, excluding stock compensation expense. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides investors relevant and useful information because it permits investors to view income from our operations on an unleveraged basis before the effects of taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock compensation expense. By excluding interest expense and income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA allow investors to measure our performance independent of our capital structure and indebtedness and, therefore, allow for a more meaningful comparison of our performance to that of other companies, both in the real estate industry and in other industries. We believe that excluding charges related to share-based compensation facilitates a comparison of our operations across periods and among other companies without the variances caused by different valuation methodologies, the volatility of the expense (which depends on market forces outside our control), and the assumptions and the variety of award types that a company can use. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as measures of our performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our historical cash expenditures or future cash requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments. While EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are relevant and widely used measures of performance, they do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, and they should not be considered as alternatives to those indicators in evaluating performance or liquidity. Further, our computation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company due to adverse changes in financial or commodity market prices or rates. We are exposed to market risk in the areas of interest rates and commodity prices.

33


Financial Market Risks
Our exposure to financial market risks includes changes to interest rates and credit risks related to marketable securities, interest rates related to our outstanding indebtedness and, market and credit risks related to trade receivables.
The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields and prudently managing risk. To achieve this objective and limit interest rate exposure, we limit our investments to securities with a maturity of less than five years and an investment grade rating from Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s. See Note 3 (Marketable Securities) of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Our current RLC has an outstanding balance of $11,000,000. The interest rate on the RLC can either float at 1.50% over a selected LIBOR, or can be fixed at 1.50% above LIBOR for a fixed term for a limited period of time and change only at maturity of the fixed rate portion. The floating rate and fixed rate options within our RLC help us manage our interest rate exposure on any outstanding balances.
We are exposed to interest rate risk on our long-term debt. Long-term debt consists of two term loans. The first term loan is for $70,000,000 and has a rate that is tied to LIBOR plus a margin of 1.70%. The interest rate for the term of this loan has been fixed through the use of an interest rate swap that fixed the rate at 4.11%. The second term loan has an outstanding balance of $4,025,000 and has a fixed rate of 4.25%. We believe it is prudent at times to limit the variability of floating-rate interest payments and have from time-to-time entered into interest rate swap arrangements to manage those fluctuations, as we did with the first loan mentioned above.
Market risk related to our farming inventories ultimately depends on the value of almonds, grapes, and pistachios at the time of payment or sale. Market risk related to our farming inventories is discussed below in the section pertaining to commodity price exposure. Credit risk related to our receivables depends upon the financial condition of our customers. Based on historical experience with our current customers and periodic credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions, we believe our credit risk is minimal.
The following tables provide information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The tables present our debt obligations and marketable securities and their related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates.

Commodity Price Exposure
As of September 30, 2016, we have exposure to adverse price fluctuations associated with certain inventories and accounts receivable. Farming inventories consist of farming cultural and processing costs related to 2015 and 2016 crop production. The farming costs inventoried are recorded at actual costs incurred. Historically, these costs have been recovered each year when that year’s crop harvest has been sold.
With respect to accounts receivable, the amount at risk relates primarily to farm crops. These receivables are recorded as estimates of the prices that ultimately will be received for the crops. The final price is generally not known for several months following the close of our fiscal year. Of the $8,612,000 of accounts receivable outstanding at September 30, 2016, $5,900,000 or 77%, is at risk to changing prices. Of the amount at risk to changing prices, $5,736,000 is attributable to pistachios and $164,000 is attributable to almonds. The comparable amount of accounts receivable at risk to price changes at December 31, 2015 was $3,529,000, or 54% of the total accounts receivable of $6,511,000.
The price estimated for recording accounts receivable for pistachios recorded at September 30, 2016 was $2.01 per pound compared to $2.88 per pound at December 31, 2015. For each $0.01 change in the price of pistachios, our receivable for pistachios increases or decreases by $28,000. Although the final price of pistachios (and therefore the extent of the risk) is not presently known, over the last three years prices have ranged from $3.82 to $4.92. With respect to almonds, the price estimated for recording the receivable was $2.00 per pound compared to $3.44 per pound at December 31, 2015. For each $0.01 change in the price of almonds, our receivable for almonds increases or decreases by $820. The range of final prices over the last three years for almonds has ranged from $1.71 to $4.24 per pound.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In the absence of a Quorum, the Representative(s) of the Executive Committee so present may adjourn the meeting until a Quorum is present. The Executive Committee shall meet at least quarterly on a day designated by the Administrative Member. The Executive Committee shall hold such other regularly scheduled meetings as are determined by the Administrative Member.

Notice of any regularly scheduled meeting of the Executive Committee shall be given by the Administrative Member to all of the Representatives no fewer than ten (10) days and no more than thirty (30) days prior to the date of any such meeting. Any Representative may participate telephonically in any regular meeting of the Executive Committee. The attendance of a Representative of the Executive Committee at a regularly scheduled meeting of the Executive Committee (either in person or telephonically) shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a Representative of the Executive Committee attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting was not properly called or convened. Minutes of the Executive Committee shall not be required to be prepared or maintained. Resolutions of the Executive Committee, when signed by a Quorum present at the applicable meeting, shall be binding and conclusive evidence of the decisions reflected therein and any authorization granted thereby.

(b)    Decisions of the Executive Committee. Subject to Section 2.02(f), all decisions and actions of the Executive Committee shall require the affirmative vote of (i) a majority of the Representatives present at such meeting, and (ii) at least one (1) Representative appointed by each Member at a meeting at which a Quorum is present.

(c)        Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Executive Committee may be called by or at the request of any Representative and shall be held on a Business Day at the principal executive office of the Company.

The business to be transacted at, and the purpose of, any special meeting of the Executive Committee need not be specified in the notice or

1101801.21/OC

FINAL VERSION



waiver of notice of such meeting. Notice of any special meeting may be waived by each Representative of the Executive Committee.

(d)    Telephonic Participation. Representatives of the Executive Committee may participate in any meetings of the Executive Committee telephonically or through other similar communications equipment provided that all of the Representatives participating in such meeting can hear each another. Participation in a meeting pursuant to the preceding sentence shall constitute presence in person at such meeting for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e)        Transaction of Business. Provided that notice of a meeting has been given in the manner set forth herein, a Quorum shall be entitled to transact business at any meeting of the Executive Committee.

(f)        Actions Without Meetings. Any decision or action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Executive Committee or any other decision or action that may be taken at a meeting of the Executive Committee may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by at least one (1) Representative of each Member, which shall have the same effect as an act taken at a properly called and constituted meeting with a Quorum of the Executive Committee at which all of the Representatives of the Executive Committee were present and voting.

(g)    Proxies. Each Representative may authorize another person or persons to act for him or her by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after sixty (60) days from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A Representative may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or by delivering a proxy in accordance with applicable law bearing a later date to the Administrative Member.

(h)    Limitations on Authority. None of the Members, Representatives or Officers, without the prior consent of the Executive Committee, may take any action on behalf of or in the name of the Company, or enter into any commitment or obligation binding upon the Company, except for (i) actions expressly authorized by this Agreement, and (ii) actions by any Member (or Representative or Officer) within the scope of such Member's (or Representative's or Officer's) authority granted under this Agreement.

(i)        Compensation. Except as otherwise approved by the Executive Committee, no Representative shall be entitled to receive any salary, remuneration or reimbursement from the Company for his or her services as a Representative.

The failure of the Representatives to resolve any such impasse for any reason prior to the expiration of such sixty (60)-day period shall constitute an "Impasse Event" under this Agreement (so long as the deadlock that resulted in such impasse remains unresolved). Prior to the expiration of such sixty (60)-day period (or such longer period as is unanimously agreed to by the Representatives), neither Member may elect to commence the buy/sell procedure set forth in Article VIII as result of any deadlock on any Major Decision.

2.03    Administrative Member

The Members hereby initially designate Majestic as the "Administrative Member" of the Company. The Administrative Member shall serve as the Administrative Member, unless and until it resigns as provided in Section 2.16(b), is removed pursuant to Section 2.16(c) or ceases to be a member of the Company. The Administrative Member hereby agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to carry out the business and affairs of the Company and to devote such time to the Company as is necessary, in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Member, for the efficient operation of the business and affairs of the Company. Subject to the terms of this Agreement (including Sections 2.04, 2.11, 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14, which assign certain obligations or decision-making authority to Tejon or the Executive Committee), the Administrative Member shall be responsible for (i) preparing and implementing each Approved Business Plan (including, without limitation, each Development Plan, Development Budget, Operating Budget and Marketing Plan contained therein), (ii) implementing the decisions of the Executive Committee, (iii) reporting to the Executive Committee as to the status of the business and affairs of the Company, (iv) managing, supervising, and conducting the day-to-day business and affairs of the Company, and (v) performing such other services delegated to the Administrative Member under this Agreement including, without limitation, (A) the development and construction management services delegated to the Administrative Member under Section 2.11, (B) the marketing and leasing management services delegated to the Administrative Member under Section 2.13, (C) the property management services delegated to the Administrative Member under Section 2.14, and (D) the reporting and accounting functions delegated to the Administrative Member under Article XI.

3.02    Additional Capital Contributions
If the Company has insufficient funds to meet its current or projected financial requirements (a "Shortfall"), then the Administrative Member shall give written notice (the "Capital Call Notice") of such Shortfall to the other Member. The Contribution Notice shall summarize, with reasonable particularity, the Company's actual and projected cash obligations, cash on hand, projected sources and amounts of future Cash Flow and a contribution date ("Contribution Date") (which shall not be less than ten (10) Business Days following the effective date of such notice) upon which each Member shall be obligated to contribute to the capital of the Company, in cash, such Member's Percentage Interest of the funds necessary to satisfy such Shortfall. If the Company has a Shortfall and the Administrative Member fails to deliver a Capital Call Notice so that the Company may timely satisfy such Shortfall, then the other Member may deliver the Capital Call Notice pursuant to this Section 3.02. Any and all amounts contributed to the capital of the Company by any Member pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be credited to such Member's Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account on the date any such contribution is made.

3.03    Remedy for Failure to Contribute Capital
If any Member (the "Non-Contributing Member") fails to contribute timely all or any portion of the additional capital such Member is required to contribute pursuant to Section 3.02 (the "Delinquent Contribution"), and provided that the other Member (the "Contributing Member") has timely contributed to the capital of the Company all of the additional capital required to be contributed by such Contributing Member pursuant to Section 3.02 (with respect to that particular notice and capital call), then such Contributing Member shall have the right, in lieu of any other right or remedy available at law, in equity or otherwise to the Contributing Member and/or the Company (or any other party), to select one (1) or more of the following options in accordance with the terms set forth below in this Section 3.03:
(a)    Loan Remedy. The Contributing Member may advance to the Company, in cash, within thirty (30) days following the Contribution Date, an amount equal to the Delinquent Contribution, and such advance shall be treated as a nonrecourse loan ("Default Loan") by the Contributing Member to the Non-Contributing Member, bearing interest at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) the prevailing prime commercial lending rate of Wells Fargo Bank plus five (5) percentage points, adjusted concurrently with any adjustments to such rate and compounded annually, or (ii) the maximum, nonusurious rate then permitted by law for such loans. Subject to Sections 7.09 and 8.08, each Default Loan shall be due and payable in full one hundred twenty (120) days from the date advanced (or, if earlier, upon the dissolution of the Company).
As of the effective date of the advance of any Default Loan, the Capital Account and the Unreturned Contribution Account of the Non-Contributing Member shall be credited with an amount equal to the original principal balance of the Default Loan made by the Contributing Member to the Non-Contributing Member. Notwithstanding the provisions of Articles V and XII, until any and all Default Loans made to the Non-Contributing Member are repaid in full, the Non-Contributing Member shall receive no further distributions from the Company, and all cash or property otherwise distributable with respect to the Non-Contributing Member's Interest shall be distributed to the Contributing Member as a reduction of the outstanding balance of (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) any and all such Default Loans, with such funds being applied first to reduce any and all interest accrued on such Default Loan(s) and then to reduce the principal amount thereof. Any amounts so applied shall be treated, for all

purposes under this Agreement, as having actually been distributed to the Non-Contributing Member pursuant to Section 5.01 and applied by the Non-Contributing Member to repay such outstanding Default Loan(s).
To secure the repayment of any and all Default Loans made to the Non-Contributing Member, such Non-Contributing Member hereby grants a security interest in favor of the Contributing Member in and to the Non-Contributing Member's entire Interest in the Company, and hereby irrevocably appoints the Contributing Member, and each of the Contributing Member's representatives, agents, officers or employees, as the Non-Contributing Member's attorney(s)-in-fact, with full power to prepare, execute, acknowledge, and deliver, as applicable, all documents, instruments, and/or agreements memorializing and/or securing such Default Loan(s), including, without limitation, such Uniform Commercial Code financing and continuation statements, mortgages, pledge agreements and other security instruments as may be reasonably appropriate to perfect and continue the security interest in favor of such Contributing Member.
The Contributing Member is also authorized to cause the Company to issue certificates (collectively, the "Certificates") evidencing the Members' respective Interests in the Company (in such form as is determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Contributing Member) and is further authorized to take possession and control of any such Certificate of the Non-Contributing Member if it has made a Default Loan to the Contributing Member. Following the issuance of the Certificates, each Interest in the Company shall constitute a "certificated security" within the meaning of, and be governed by, (i) Section 8-102(a)(15) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of Delaware, and (ii) the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction that now or hereafter substantially includes the 1994 revisions to Article 8 thereof as adopted by the American Law Institute and the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws and approved by the American Bar Association on February 14, 1995. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent with any non-waivable provision of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect in the State of Delaware (6 Del C. § 8-101, et seq.), such provision of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code shall control.
If, upon the maturity of a Default Loan (taking into account any agreed upon extensions thereof), any principal thereof and/or accrued interest thereon remains outstanding, then the Contributing Member may elect any one (1) of the following options: (i) to renew such Default Loan (or portion thereof) pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Section 3.03(a) for such additional terms as is determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Contributing Member; (ii) to institute legal (or other) proceedings against the Non-Contributing Member to collect such loan which may include, without limitation, foreclosing against the security interest granted above; (iii) to contribute all or any portion of such outstanding principal of, and accrued interest on, such Default Loan (or portion thereof) to the capital of the Company and dilute the Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.03(b), or (iv) to implement the default provisions set forth in Article VII in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.03(c).
The Contributing Member may elect any of the options set forth in the immediately preceding sentence by giving written notice of such election to the Non-Contributing Member within thirty (30) days following such maturity date. Failure of the Contributing Member to timely give such written notice to the Non-Contributing Member shall be deemed to constitute an election to renew such Default Loan for an additional term of one hundred twenty (120) days on the terms set forth herein. If the Contributing

Member elects to foreclose upon the security interest in the Non-Contributing Member's Interest in the Company granted above, then the Contributing Member is authorized to cancel the Certificate evidencing the Non-Contributing Member's Interest in the Company and issue a new Certificate to the Contributing Member that has foreclosed upon such Interest.
(b)    Dilution Remedy. The Contributing Member may contribute to the capital of the Company, in cash, within thirty (30) days following the Contribution Date an amount equal to the Delinquent Contribution, and such Contributing Member's respective Capital Account and Unreturned Contribution Account shall each be credited with the amount contributed by such Contributing Member. Further, upon the maturity of a Default Loan that is not fully repaid on or before the maturity date thereof, the Contributing Member may contribute to the capital of the Company, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.03(a) above, all or any portion of the outstanding principal of and/or accrued interest on such Default Loan (or portion thereof) previously advanced by such Contributing Member that is not repaid prior to the maturity date thereof, and (i) the amount of such outstanding principal and/or interest so contributed shall be deemed repaid and satisfied; (ii) the Capital Account and the Unreturned Contribution Account of the Non-Contributing Member shall be decreased, but not below zero (0), by the amount of such outstanding principal and/or interest so contributed; and (iii) the Capital Account and the Unreturned Contribution Account of the Contributing Member shall be increased by the amount of such outstanding principal and/or interest so contributed.
Upon the contribution of the Delinquent Contribution and/or the outstanding balance of a Default Loan by the Contributing Member pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.03(b), (i) the Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member shall be decreased by the Dilution Percentage, and (ii) the Percentage Interest of the Contributing Member shall be increased by a like amount of percentage points. The "Dilution Percentage" shall equal the amount expressed in percentage points calculated based upon the following formula:

        ex1038image1a02.jpg

The application of the provisions of this Section 3.03(b) are illustrated by the following example: Assume that (i) the aggregate amount of the prior capital contributions made by the Non-Contributing Member is Two Million Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,300,000), (ii) a contribution of Four

1101801.21/OC
54430-10898/2568195.16 22

FINAL VERSION



Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000) is required to be contributed by the Members to the capital of the Company pursuant to Section 3.02, (iii) the Non-Contributing Member has a Percentage Interest of fifty percent (50%) and fails to contribute its share of such contribution equal to Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) (i.e., 50% ´ $400,000), and (iv) the Contributing Member has a Percentage Interest of fifty percent (50%) and contributes its entire share of such contribution equal to Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) (i.e., 50% x $400,000) and the Delinquent Contribution of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) to the capital of the Company on behalf of the Non-Contributing Member pursuant to this Section 3.03(b). By operation of this Section 3.03(b), the Dilution Percentage would be equal to twelve (12) percentage points as calculated in accordance with the following formula:

    ex1038image2a02.jpg

Accordingly, the Percentage Interest of the Non-Contributing Member would be reduced by twelve (12) percentage points from fifty percent (50%) to thirty-eight percent (38%) and the Percentage Interest of the Contributing Member would be increased by a like amount of percentage points from fifty percent (50%) to sixty-two percent (62%).
(c)    Implementation of Default Provisions. The Contributing Member may elect to implement the default provisions contained in Article VII by delivery of written notice of such election to the Non-Contributing Member within ninety (90) days following the Contribution Date or the maturity date for any Default Loan that is not repaid prior to the maturity thereof.
(d)    Election of Remedy. The Contributing Member shall determine which of the options set forth in Sections 3.03(a), 3.03(b) and/or 3.03(c) are to be exercised by the Contributing Member with respect to each Delinquent Contribution. If the Contributing Member advances any amount to the Company pursuant to this Section 3.03 but fails to specify which of the foregoing options the Contributing Member has elected within thirty (30) days after the effective date that the Contributing Member makes such advance, then such Contributing Member shall be deemed to have elected the option set forth in Section 3.03(a) above with respect to such advance.
(e)    Minimum Percentage Interest. Any and all adjustments to the Members' respective Percentage Interests pursuant to Section 3.03(b) shall be rounded to the nearest 1/100th of one percentage point (0.01%) and the Contributing Member shall not succeed to all or any portion of the Capital Account and/or Unreturned Contribution Account of the Non-Contributing Member as the result of any such adjustment. In addition, notwithstanding any provision contained in this Article III, the Non-Contributing Member's Percentage Interest shall in no event be reduced below 1/100th of one percent (0.01%) by operation of Section 3.03(b).

3.04    Financing
The Administrative Member shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company to procure a construction loan (the "Construction Loan") to finance the development and construction of the Improvements from one (1) or more independent third-party institutional lenders selected by the Administrative Member (individually, the "Lender" and collectively, the "Lenders") upon prevailing market terms and conditions. The Administrative Member shall also use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a permanent loan (the "Permanent Loan") from one (1) or more Lenders to refinance the Construction Loan upon prevailing market terms and conditions (and any other financing thereafter required to refinance the Permanent Loan), which shall be nonrecourse to the Members (subject to any Nonrecourse Documents described in Section 3.05 required to be provided to the Lender providing any such Permanent Loan). The Construction Loan and the Permanent Loan shall be secured by a deed of trust encumbering the Project. Any such financing and/or refinancing obtained by the Administrative Member on behalf of the Company (collectively, the "Loans") shall require the consent of the Executive Committee pursuant to Section 2.04(d).

3.05    Agreement to Provide Guarantees and Indemnification
Each Member and/or one (1) or more of their respective Affiliates or representatives, including, without limitation, the ultimate parent of each Member if required by the applicable Lender (collectively, the "Guarantors" and individually, a "Guarantor") shall execute and deliver to any Lender providing a Construction Loan to the Company (i) any and all repayment or completion guaranties or similar documents required by such Lender (collectively, the "Recourse Documents"), and (ii) any and all other environmental indemnities and "bad-boy" carve-out guaranties required by such Lender (collectively, the "Nonrecourse Documents") provided such Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents are approved by the Executive Committee in its reasonable discretion. In addition, the Guarantors shall execute any Nonrecourse Document required by any Lender providing a Permanent Loan to the Company provided such Nonrecourse Documents are approved by the Executive Committee in its reasonable discretion.
The Administrative Member shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain each Lender's agreement that the obligation of each Guarantor under each Recourse Document and Nonrecourse Document shall be several (i.e., not joint and several) as between the Members (and their respective Affiliates) and proportionate to the Percentage Interest of each Member that is an Affiliate of such Guarantor. The Members acknowledge and agree that each Recourse Document and Nonrecourse Document executed by any Guarantor shall be executed only as an accommodation to the Company and/or the Members. The Company shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold each such Guarantor wholly harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, costs, expenses, damages and/or expenses including, without limitation, any attorneys' and expert witness fees and costs (collectively, "Losses") incurred by any such Guarantor as a result of such Recourse Document and Nonrecourse Document (or as a result of the rights of contribution described below) in accordance with the terms of Section 10.02(b). Either Member may deliver a Capital Call Notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02 to require the Members to make additional contributions to the capital of the Company to enable the Company to satisfy the indemnity for any Losses described in this Section 3.05.

If the Company fails to fully satisfy any indemnification and/or defense obligation owing to any Member or any Guarantor affiliated with such Member pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.05, then such Guarantor ("Contributing Party") shall have a right of contribution against the other Member (the "Non-Contributing Party") to the extent the liability incurred by the Contributing Party under any Recourse Document or Nonrecourse Document (for which it is entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant Section 10.02(b)) exceeds such Contributing Party's Pro Rata Share of the total liability incurred by all of the Guarantors under all of the Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents (for which the Guarantors are entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant to Section 10.02(b)). The term "Pro Rata Share" means (i) with respect to Tejon and its Guarantors, an amount equal to its then Percentage Interest of the total liability incurred by all of the Guarantors under all of the Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents (for which the Guarantors are entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant to Section 10.02(b) below), and (ii) with respect to Majestic and its Guarantors, an amount equal to its then Percentage Interest of the total liability incurred by all of the Guarantors under all of the Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents (for which the Guarantors are entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant to Section 10.02(b) below).
At any time that any Contributing Party has a right of contribution against the Non-Contributing Party under this Section 3.05, the Non‑Contributing Party shall be obligated to satisfy such contribution obligation by paying the required amount, in cash, within ten (10) days following written notice thereof from the Contributing Party. If any such payment is not timely and validly made within such ten (10)-day period, then from and after the date such amount was required to be paid, such amount shall bear interest at the lesser of (A) the prevailing prime commercial lending rate of Wells Fargo Bank plus five (5) percentage points, adjusted concurrently with any adjustments to such rate and compounded annually, or (B) the maximum non-usurious rate allowed by law. The Contributing Party shall also be entitled to collect from the Non‑Contributing Party any and all costs and expenses of enforcing such contribution obligation including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and expert witness fees and costs.
The Members acknowledge and agree that each of the Guarantors (that are not Members) are express third-party beneficiaries of the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.05, and, as such, all of the Guarantors have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions of this Section 3.05.

3.06    Capital Contributions in General
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed to in writing by all of the Members (i) no part of the contributions of any Member to the capital of the Company may be withdrawn by such Member, (ii) no Member shall be entitled to receive interest on such Member's contributions to the capital of the Company, (iii) no Member shall have the right to demand or receive property other than cash in return for such Member's contribution to the Company, and (iv) no Member shall be required or be entitled to contribute additional capital to the Company other than as permitted or required by this Article III.

After giving effect to the special allocations in Sections 4.03 and 4.04, Net Losses for each Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members so as to reduce, proportionately, the differences between their respective Target Capital Accounts and Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts for such Fiscal Year. No portion of the Net Losses for any taxable year shall be allocated to a Member whose Partially Adjusted Capital Account is less than or equal to such Member's Target Capital Account for such Fiscal Year.

4.02    Net Profits
After giving effect to the special allocations in Sections 4.03 and 4.04, Net Profits for each Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members so as to reduce, proportionately, the differences between their respective Target Capital Accounts and Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts for such Fiscal Year. No portion of the Net Profits for any taxable year shall be allocated to a Member whose Partially Adjusted Capital Account is greater than or equal to such Member's Target Capital Account for such Fiscal Year.

4.03    Special Allocations
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no Net Losses or items of expense, loss or deduction shall be allocated to any Member to the extent such an allocation would cause or increase a deficit balance standing in such Member's Adjusted Capital Account and any such Net Losses and items of expense, loss and deduction shall instead be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective "interests" in the Company as determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704‑1(b). In addition, items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with and to the extent required by the qualified income offset provisions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704‑1(b)(2)(ii)(d). Notwithstanding any other provision in this Article IV, (i) any and all "partnership nonrecourse deductions" (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704‑2(b)(1)) of the Company for any Fiscal Year or other period shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests; (ii) any and all "partner nonrecourse deductions" (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704‑2(i)(2)) attributable to any "partner nonrecourse debt" (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704‑2(b)(4)) shall be allocated to the Member that bears the "economic risk of loss" (as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-2) for such "partner nonrecourse debt" in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704‑2(i)(l); (iii) each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in accordance with the partnership minimum gain chargeback requirements set forth in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704‑2(f) and 1.704‑2(g); and (iv) each Member with a share of minimum gain attributable to any "partner nonrecourse debt" shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in accordance with the partner minimum gain chargeback requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704‑2(i)(4) and 1.704‑2(i)(5).

4.04    Curative Allocations
The allocations set forth in Section 4.03 (the "Regulatory Allocations") are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 4.04. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Administrative Member is hereby authorized to make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member's Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of this Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Sections 4.01 and 4.02. In exercising its discretion under this Section 4.04, the Administrative Member shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 4.03, that are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under the provisions of this Section 4.04.

4.05    Differing Tax Basis; Tax Allocation
Depreciation and/or cost recovery deductions and gain or loss with respect to each item of property treated as contributed to the capital of the Company shall be allocated between the Members for federal income tax purposes in accordance with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and for state income tax purposes in accordance with comparable provisions of the California Revenue & Taxation Code, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, so as to take into account the variation, if any, between the adjusted tax basis of such property and its book value (as determined for purposes of the maintenance of Capital Accounts in accordance with this Agreement and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704‑1(b)(2)(iv)(g)).

6.03    Admission of Substituted Members
If any Member transfers such Member's Interest to a transferee in accordance with Sections 6.01 and/or 6.02 above, then such transferee shall only be entitled to be admitted into the Company as a substituted member (and this Agreement shall be amended in accordance with the Delaware Act to reflect such admission), if: (i) the non-transferring Member reasonably approves the form and content of the instrument of transfer; (ii) the transferor and transferee named therein execute and acknowledge such other instruments as the non-transferring Member may deem reasonably necessary to effectuate such admission; (iii) the transferee in writing accepts and adopts all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as the same may have been amended; and (iv) the transferor pays, as the non-transferring Member may reasonably determine, all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such admission, including, without limitation, legal fees and costs.

An assignee shall only be entitled to share in such Net Profits and Net Losses, to receive such distributions, and to receive such allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit or similar items to which the assignor was entitled, to the extent assigned. A Member that transfers such Member's Interest shall not cease to be a member of the Company until the admission of the assignee as a substituted member.

Upon the transfer of all or any part of the Interest of a Member as hereinabove provided, Net Profits and Net Losses shall be allocated between the transferor and transferee on the basis of a computation method that is in conformity with the methods prescribed by Section 706 of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.706-1(c)(2)(ii).

6.05    Partition
No Member shall have the right to partition any assets of the Company or any interest therein, nor shall a Member make application or proceeding for a partition thereto and, upon any breach of the provisions of this Section 6.05 by any Member, the other Member (in addition to all rights and remedies afforded by law or equity) shall be entitled to a decree or order restraining or enjoining such application, action or proceeding.

6.06    Waiver of Withdrawal and Purchase Rights
Except in connection with any transfer permitted in accordance with this Agreement, no Member may voluntarily withdraw, resign or retire from the Company without the prior written consent of the other Member, which consent may be withheld in such other Member's sole and absolute discretion. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Member hereby waives any and all rights such Member may have to withdraw and/or resign from the Company pursuant to Section 18-603 of the Delaware Act and hereby

The Company acknowledges that the pledge of any Interest in the Company pursuant to Section 3.03(a) shall be a pledge not only of Net Profits and Net Losses of the Company, but also a pledge of all rights and obligations of the pledgor thereunder. Upon a foreclosure, sale or other transfer of any Interest in the Company pursuant to Section 3.03(a), the successor member may transfer its Interest in the Company in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision in the Delaware Act or any other provision contained herein to the contrary, the pledgor under Section 3.03(a) shall be permitted to pledge and, upon any foreclosure of such pledge in connection with the admission of the secured party or other holder as a substituted member, to transfer to the secured party or other holder its rights and obligations to the Company pursuant to the terms of such pledge agreement.

(b)    Capital Default. The failure of a Member to make timely a contribution required to be made pursuant to Section 3.02, or to timely repay any Default Loan in accordance with Section 3.03(a), followed by the election of the Contributing Member to treat such failure as a Default Event pursuant to Section 3.03(c);

(d)    Bankruptcy or Insolvency. The rendering, by a court with appropriate jurisdiction, of a decree or order (i) adjudging a Member bankrupt or insolvent, or (ii) approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, readjustment, arrangement, composition, or similar relief for a Member under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other similar applicable law or practice, provided that such decree or order shall remain in force, undischarged and unstayed, for a period of ninety (90) days;

A Member shall cease to be a Defaulting Member solely for purposes of this Article VII following the occurrence of a Default Event with respect to such Member if the Non-Defaulting Member fails to deliver a Default Notice within the sixty (60)-day or ninety (90)-day periods, as the case may be, set forth in Section 7.02, following the occurrence of such Default Event.

7.02    Rights Arising From a Default Event
Within sixty (60) days after the date that the Non-Defaulting Member is aware of the occurrence of an uncured Default Event (or ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any default described in Section 7.01(b)) the Non-Defaulting Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to implement the default procedures set forth in this Article VII by delivering written notice ("Default Notice") thereof to the Defaulting Member. Failure of a Non-Defaulting Member to deliver a Default Notice within such sixty (60)-day or ninety (90)-day period shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to deliver a Default Notice upon the occurrence of any subsequent Default Event.

7.03    Determination of Defaulting Member's Purchase Price
Within thirty (30) days after the determination of the Appraised Value of the assets of the Company, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of cash which would be distributed to each Member if (i) the assets of the Company were sold for the Appraised Value thereof as of the effective date of the Default Notice; (ii) the liabilities of the Company were liquidated pursuant to Section 12.02(a); (iii) a reasonable reserve for any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Company was established by the Non-Defaulting Member pursuant to Section 12.02(b); and (iv) any remaining amounts were distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.02(c). Upon such determination, the Accounting Firm shall give each Member written notice ("Accountant's Notice") thereof. The determination by the Accounting Firm of such amounts, including all components thereof, shall be deemed conclusive absent any material computational error. In the case of a Default Event described in Section 7.01(a), (b) or (c), ninety percent (90%), and in all other cases, one hundred percent (100%), of the amount which would be distributed to the Defaulting Member pursuant to Section 5.01 shall be deemed the purchase price for the Defaulting Member's Interest (the "Defaulting Member's Purchase Price") for purposes of this Article VII; subject, however, to adjustment for any Default Loans as provided in Section 7.09.

(a)        Determination of Appraised Value. For purposes of this Article VII, the appraised value ("Appraised Value") of the assets of the Company shall be determined as follows: The Appraised Value shall be determined by one (1) or more independent qualified M.A.I. appraisers with at least five (5) years' experience appraising industrial real estate projects. The Non-Defaulting Member shall select one (1) appraiser and shall include such selection in the Default Notice. Within fifteen (15) Business Days following the effective date of the Default Notice, the Defaulting Member shall either agree to the appraiser selected by the Non-Defaulting Member or select a second (2nd) appraiser and give written notice to the Non-Defaulting Member of the person so selected. If either the Non-Defaulting Member or the Defaulting Member fails to appoint such an appraiser within the time period specified and after the expiration of five (5) Business Days following the effective date of written demand that an appraiser be appointed, then the appraiser duly appointed by the Member making such demand to appoint such appraiser shall proceed to make the appraisal as herein set forth, and the determination thereof shall be conclusive on both of the Members. If two (2) appraisers are selected, then such selected appraisers shall thereafter appoint a third (3rd) appraiser. If the two (2) selected appraisers fail to appoint a third (3rd) appraiser within ten (10) Business Days following the effective date of written notice from the Defaulting Member notifying the

FINAL VERSION



Non-Defaulting Member of the selection of the second (2nd) appraiser, then any Member may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a third (3rd) appraiser, in the same manner as provided for the appointment of an arbitrator pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1281.6.
The appraiser or three (3) appraisers, as the case may be, shall promptly determine a date for the completion of the appraisal, which shall not be later than sixty (60) days from the effective date of appointment of the last appraiser.
The appraiser(s) shall determine the Appraised Value by determining the fair market value of the assets of the Company, such fair market value being the fairest price estimated in the terms of money which the Company could obtain if such assets were sold in the open market allowing a reasonable time to find a purchaser who purchases with knowledge of the business of the Company at the time of the occurrence of the Default Event.
Upon submission of the appraisals setting forth the opinions as to the Appraised Value of the assets of the Company, the two (2) such appraisals which are nearest in amount shall be retained, and the third (3rd) appraisal shall be discarded. The average of the two (2) retained appraisals shall constitute the Appraised Value of the assets of the Company for purposes of this Article VII; unless one (1) appraisal is the mean of the other two (2) appraisals, in which case such appraisal shall constitute the Appraised Value of the assets of the Company for purposes of this Article VII.

(b)    Payment of Costs. Except as provided below, the Non-Defaulting Member shall pay for the services of the appraiser appointed by such Member, and the Defaulting Member shall pay for the services of the appraiser appointed by such Member. The cost of the services of the third (3rd) appraiser, if any, shall be paid one-half (½) by the Non-Defaulting Member, on the one hand, and one-half (½) by the Defaulting Member, on the other hand. The costs of the services of the Accounting Firm and, in the event only one (1) appraiser is required, the cost of the services of such appraiser, shall be paid one-half (½) by the Non-Defaulting Member, on the one hand, and one-half (½) by the Defaulting Member, on the other hand.

7.04    Non-Defaulting Members' Option
For a period of thirty (30) days after the effective date of the Accountant's Notice, the Non-Defaulting Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase the entire Interest of the Defaulting Member for the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price, and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Article VII by giving written notice of such election to the Defaulting Member within such thirty (30)-day period. Failure by the Non-Defaulting Member to timely give written notice exercising such Member's right to elect to purchase set forth in this Section 7.04 shall be deemed an election by such Member to waive such right to purchase with respect to the particular Default Event that triggered the application of the provisions of this Article VII.

7.05    Closing Adjustments
Within five (5) days before the actual date of the closing pursuant to Section 7.06 below, the Accounting Firm shall recalculate the amount of cash which would be distributed to each Member pursuant to Section 5.01, if such amount were determined as of the closing date under Section 7.06 (in lieu of the effective date of the Default Notice) taking into account any contributions and/or distributions made after the effective date of the Default Notice. Upon such determination, the Accounting Firm shall give each Member written notice ("Adjusted Accountant's Notice") thereof. The Accounting Firm shall reasonably and in good faith adjust the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price, if and to the extent necessary, to take into account the adjustments described in the Adjusted Accountant's Notice and to take into account appropriate prorations that would have been made if there had been an actual sale of the Project to a third party as of the date of the closing under Section 7.06.

7.06    Closing of Purchase and Sale
The closing of a purchase and sale pursuant to this Article VII shall be held at the principal office of the Company in California on a Business Day designated by the Non-Defaulting Member that is not later than sixty (60) days after the expiration of the thirty (30)-day period set forth in Section 7.04. The Defaulting Member shall transfer to the purchasing Non-Defaulting Member (or such Member's nominee(s)) the entire Interest of the Defaulting Member free and clear of all liens, security interests, and competing claims and shall deliver to the Non-Defaulting Member (or such Member's nominee(s)) such instruments of transfer and such evidence of due authorization, execution, and delivery, and of the absence of any such liens, security interests, or competing claims as the Non-Defaulting Member (or such Member's nominee(s)) shall reasonably request.

7.07    Representations and Warranties
At the closing, the Defaulting Member shall represent and warrant to the Non-Defaulting Member that the sale of the Defaulting Member's Interest to the Non-Defaulting Member (or its nominee) (i) does not violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provisions of, or constitute a material default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a material default) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, security or pledge agreement, license, lease, franchise, permit, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Defaulting Member is a party (exclusive of any such agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party), or (ii) violate any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or

regulation applicable to the Defaulting Member or any of the other properties or assets of the Defaulting Member. The Defaulting Member shall also represent and warrant to the Non-Defaulting Member at such closing that no notice to, declaration, filing or registration with, or authorization, consent or approval, or permit from, any domestic or foreign governmental regulatory body or authority, or any Person, is necessary in connection with the sale of its Interest to the Non-Defaulting Member.

7.08    Payment of Defaulting Member's Purchase Price
The Non-Defaulting Member shall pay (or cause to be paid) the entire Defaulting Member's Purchase Price by delivering at the closing a confirmed wire transfer of readily available funds or one (1) or more certified or bank cashier's checks made payable to the order of the Defaulting Member.

7.09    Repayment of Default Loans
The Defaulting Member's Purchase Price shall be offset at the closing of such purchase by the then unpaid principal balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the Non-Defaulting Member to the Defaulting Member. Such Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) shall be deemed paid to the extent of such offset, with such deemed payment to be applied first to the accrued interest thereon and thereafter to the payment of the outstanding principal amount thereof. If the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price is insufficient to fully offset the then unpaid principal balance of any and all Default Loans (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the Non-Defaulting Member to the Defaulting Member, then the portion of any such Default Loan(s) (and accrued, unpaid interest thereon) that remains outstanding following such offset shall be required to be paid by the Defaulting Member at the closing referenced in Section 7.06. Also, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the unpaid balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (including all outstanding principal amounts thereof and all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the Defaulting Member to the Non-Defaulting Member be required to be paid by the Defaulting Member at the closing referenced in Section 7.06.

7.10    Release and Indemnity
On or before the closing of a purchase and sale held pursuant to this Article VII, the Non-Defaulting Member shall use such Member's reasonable and good faith efforts to obtain written releases of the Defaulting Member and the Defaulting Member's Affiliates from all liabilities under all Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents and all other liabilities of the Company for which Affiliates may have personal liability, except to the extent caused by the fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of this Agreement by the Defaulting Member (or any Affiliate thereof). To the extent the Non-Defaulting Member is unable to obtain such releases on or before the closing, the Non-Defaulting Member and an Affiliate of the Non-Defaulting Member with a net worth reasonably acceptable to the Defaulting Member shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold the Defaulting Member (and its Affiliates) wholly harmless from and against all such liabilities and guaranties, except for any liabilities arising out of the fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of this Agreement by the Defaulting Member (or any Affiliate thereof).

7.11    Withdrawal of the Defaulting Member
If the Interest of the Defaulting Member is purchased by the Non-Defaulting Member (or its nominee) pursuant to this Article VII, then, effective as of the closing for such purchase, the Defaulting Member shall withdraw as a member of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any indemnity of the Defaulting Member and its Affiliates provided for under this Agreement including, without limitation, under Section 10.02(b) shall survive the sale of the Interest of the Defaulting Member and its withdrawal as a member of the Company.

7.12    Distribution of Reserves
The amount established by the Non-Defaulting Member for reserves pursuant to Section 7.03(iii) above shall be invested by the Company into a separate interest bearing account and shall be drawn upon solely to satisfy any contingent, unmatured or conditional liabilities or obligations of the Company in existence as of the effective date of the Default Notice for which such reserve was established. Within one (1) year following the closing of the purchase of the entire Interest of the Defaulting Member in the Company pursuant to this Article VII, the Non-Defaulting Member shall pay to the Defaulting Member an amount equal to the difference between the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price determined pursuant to Section 7.03 and the amount that the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price would have been equal to if (i) no reserves had been established or deducted in calculating the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price, and (ii) the amount used in determining the Defaulting Member's Purchase Price under Section 7.03(iv) had been reduced by the aggregate amount of any contingent, unmatured or conditional liabilities of the Company (for which such reserve was established) that were actually paid by the Company during such one (1)-year period. Any interest earned on the proceeds invested in the interest bearing account shall be paid to the Defaulting Member in the same ratio as the principal balance of such proceeds is distributed in accordance with this Section 7.12.

ARTICLE VIII
ELECTIVE BUY/SELL AGREEMENT

8.01    Buy/Sell Election
Either Member that is not a Defaulting Member (the "Electing Member") shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time after the Lockout Date or an Impasse Event to elect to implement the buy/sell procedures set forth in this Article VIII by delivering written notice of such election ("Election Notice") to the other Member (the "Non-Electing Member"). The term "Lockout Date" means the earlier of (i) six (6) months after the Project Stabilization Date, or (ii) three (3) years after the Effective Date. The Election Notice shall set forth a stated value (the "Stated Value"), as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Electing Member, for all of the assets of the Company. For purposes of this Article VIII, a Member shall not be deemed to be a Defaulting Member after the expiration of the sixty (60)-day or ninety (90)-day period, as the case may be, set forth in Section 7.02.

8.02    Determination of the Purchase Price
Within ten (10) Business Days following the effective date of any Election Notice (or as soon as reasonably possible thereafter), the Accounting Firm shall determine the aggregate amount of cash which would be distributed to each Member if (i) the assets of the Company were sold for their Stated Value as of the effective date of the Election Notice; (ii) the liabilities of the Company were liquidated pursuant to Section 12.02(a); (iii) a reserve was not established for any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Company pursuant to Section 12.02(b); and (iv) any remaining amounts were distributed to the Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.01. Upon such determination, the Accounting Firm shall give each Member written notice ("Price Determination Notice") thereof. The determination by the Accounting Firm of such amounts including all components thereof, shall be deemed conclusive on all of the Members, absent any material computational error. One hundred percent (100%) of the amount that would be distributed to each Member pursuant to Section 12.04(c) shall be deemed the purchase price ("Purchase Price") for such Member's Interest for purposes of this Article VIII; subject, however, to adjustment for any Default Loans described in Section 8.08.

8.03    Non-Electing Member's Option
For a period of thirty (30) days following the effective date of the Price Determination Notice, the Non-Electing Member shall have the option to elect by delivering written notice (the "Purchase Notice") of such election to the Electing Member within such thirty (30)-day period, either (i) to purchase the Electing Member's entire Interest for the Purchase Price thereof, or (ii) to sell such Non-Electing Member's entire Interest to the Electing Member for the Purchase Price thereof. Failure of the Non-Electing Member to timely and validly make an election in accordance with this Section 8.03 shall constitute an election by such Non-Electing Member to sell such Non-Electing Member's entire Interest for the Purchase Price thereof to the Electing Member.

8.04    Deposit
WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE THIRTY (30)-DAY OPTION PERIOD SET FORTH IN SECTION 8.03, THE BUYING MEMBER SHALL DEPOSIT INTO AN ESCROW ACCOUNT ESTABLISHED BY THE BUYING MEMBER WITH A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED TITLE COMPANY, A DEPOSIT (THE "DEPOSIT") BY A WIRE TRANSFER OF IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FEDERAL FUNDS IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO FIVE PERCENT (5%) OF THE PURCHASE PRICE, WHICH SHALL BE NON-REFUNDABLE TO THE BUYING MEMBER IF THE CLOSING OF THE SALE FAILS TO OCCUR AS A RESULT OF THE BUYING MEMBER'S DEFAULT. UPON THE CLOSING OF THE SALE, THE DEPOSIT SHALL BE A CREDIT AGAINST THE PURCHASE PRICE. SUBJECT TO SECTION 8.10, IF THE SALE FAILS TO OCCUR DUE TO THE BUYING MEMBER, THEN THE SELLING MEMBER SHALL RETAIN THE DEPOSIT OF THE BUYING MEMBER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, AS ITS SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AT LAW IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DEFAULT. THE MEMBERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ESTIMATE THE DAMAGES WHICH THE SELLING MEMBER MAY SUFFER IN CONNECTION WITH A DEFAULT BY THE BUYING MEMBER UNDER THIS ARTICLE VIII. THEREFORE, SUBJECT TO SECTION 8.10, THE MEMBERS HAVE AGREED THAT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE TOTAL NET DETRIMENT

NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL LIMIT OR OTHERWISE AFFECT ANY RIGHTS THE SELLING MEMBER MAY HAVE TO OBTAIN SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE AND, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OTHER EQUITABLE REMEDIES.

instruments of transfer and such evidence of due authorization, execution, and delivery, and of the absence of any such liens, security interests, or competing claims, as the buying Member (or the buying Member's nominee(s)) shall reasonably request. The Purchase Price for the selling Member's Interest shall be paid by the buying Member by delivering at the closing of a confirmed wire transfer of readily available funds or one (1) or more certified or bank cashier's checks made payable to the selling Member in an amount equal to the Purchase Price, less the amount of the Deposit paid by the buying Member pursuant to Section 8.04 above (which shall be released to the selling Member at the closing). Effective as of the closing for the purchase of the selling Member's Interest, the selling Member shall withdraw as a member of the Company. In connection with any such withdrawal, the buying Member may cause any nominee designated in the sole and absolute discretion of such Member to be admitted as a substituted member of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any indemnity of the selling Member and its Affiliates provided for under this Agreement including, without limitation, under Section 10.02(b) shall survive the sale of the Interest of the selling Member and its withdrawal as a member of the Company.

8.07    Representations and Warranties
At the closing, the selling Member shall represent and warrant to the buying Member that the sale of the selling Member's Interest to the buying Member (or its nominee) (i) does not violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provisions of, or constitute a material default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a material default) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, security or pledge agreement, license, lease, franchise, permit, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the selling Member is a party (exclusive of any such agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party), or (ii) violate any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the selling Member or any of the other properties or assets of the selling Member (exclusive of its Interest in the Company). The selling Member shall also represent and warrant to the buying Member at such closing that no notice to, declaration, filing or registration with, or authorization, consent or approval, or permit from, any domestic or foreign governmental regulatory body or authority, or any Person, is necessary in connection with the sale of its Interest to the buying Member.

8.08    Repayment of Default Loans
The Purchase Price shall be offset at the closing of such purchase by the then unpaid principal balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the buying Member to the selling Member. Such Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) shall be deemed paid to the extent of such offset, with such deemed payment to be applied first to the accrued interest thereon and thereafter to the payment of the outstanding principal amount thereof. If the Purchase Price is insufficient to fully offset the then unpaid principal balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the buying Member to the selling Member, then the portion of any such Default Loan(s) (and accrued, unpaid interest thereon) that remains outstanding following such offset shall be required to be paid by the Defaulting Member at the closing referenced in Section 8.06. Also, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the unpaid balance of any and all Default Loan(s) (including all outstanding principal amounts thereof and all

FINAL VERSION



accrued, unpaid interest thereon) made by the selling Member to the buying Member shall be required to be paid by the Defaulting Member at the closing referenced in Section 8.06.

8.09    Release and Indemnity
On or before the closing of a purchase and sale held pursuant to this Article VIII, the buying Member shall use such Member's reasonable and good faith efforts to obtain written releases of the selling Member and the selling Member's Affiliates from all liabilities under all Recourse Documents and Nonrecourse Documents and all other liabilities of the Company for which the selling Member (and/or its Affiliates) may have personal liability, except to the extent caused by the fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of this Agreement by such selling Member (or any Affiliate thereof). To the extent the buying Member is unable to obtain such releases on or before the closing, the buying Member and an Affiliate of the buying Member with a net worth reasonably acceptable to the selling Member shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold the selling Member (and its Affiliates) wholly harmless from and against all such liabilities and guaranties, except for any liabilities caused by the fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of this Agreement by such selling Member (or any Affiliate thereof).

8.10    Interim Event of Default
If any Member elects (or is deemed to elect) to be a buying Member in accordance with the provisions of this Article VIII and defaults in its obligations to timely and validly close any such purchase, then (i) the buying Member shall not have any further right to deliver an Election Notice pursuant to Section 8.01 for a period of one (1) year after the date of such default, and (ii) the selling Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase the Interest of the defaulting Member by delivering a Purchase Notice to such defaulting Member within thirty (30) days following such default. If the selling Member makes the election described in clause (ii) above, then the Purchase Price for the defaulting Member's Interest shall be ninety percent (90%) of the amount that was otherwise determined under Section 8.02 and such purchase and sale shall otherwise be on the other terms and conditions set forth in this Article VIII. If the selling Member delivers a Purchase Notice pursuant to this Section 8.10, then the selling Member shall not be entitled to retain the Deposit under Section 8.04.

(ii)    Reliance by the Company. That the Company has relied upon the representation made by each Member that the Interest issued to such Member is to be held by such Member for investment; and
(iii)    No Distribution. That exemption from registration under the Securities Acts would not be available if any Interest in the Company was acquired by a Member with a view to distribution. Each Member agrees that the Company is under no obligation to register the Interests or to assist the Members in complying with any exemption from registration under the Securities Acts if the Member should at a later date wish to dispose of such its Interest in the Company.

(b)    Acquisition for Own Account. Each Member hereby represents to the Company that such Member is acquiring its Interest in the Company for such Member's own account, for investment and not with a view to resale or distribution.

(c)    No Public Market. Each Member recognizes that no public market exists with respect to the Interests and no representation has been made that such a public market will exist at a future date.

(d)    No Advertisement. Each Member hereby represents that such Member has not received any advertisement or general solicitation with respect to the sale of the Interests.
(e)        Pre-Existing Business Relationship. Each Member acknowledges that such Member has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company or its officers, directors, or principal interest holders, or, by reason of such Member's business or financial experience or the business or financial experience of such Member's financial advisors (who are not affiliated with the Company), could be reasonably assumed to have the capacity to protect such Member's own interest in connection with the acquisition of its Interest. Each Member further acknowledges that such Member is familiar with the financial condition and prospects of the Company's business, and has discussed with the other Member the current activities of the Company. Each Member believes that the Interest is a security of the kind such

47
FINAL VERSION



Member wishes to purchase and hold for investment, and that the nature and amount of the Interest is consistent with such Member's investment program.

(f)        Due Investigation. Before acquiring any Interest in the Company, each Member has investigated the Company and its business and the Company has made available to each Member all information necessary for the Member to make an informed decision to acquire an Interest in the Company. Each Member considers itself to be a Person possessing experience and sophistication as an investor adequate for the evaluation of the merits and risks of the Member's investment in the Company.

9.05    Indemnification Obligations
In addition to the indemnity described in Section 9.03 above, each Member hereby unconditionally and irrevocably covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, the other Member and such other Member's partners, members, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents and other representatives (collectively, the "Affiliated Parties") from and against any and all Losses incurred by the other Member and/or such Affiliated Parties resulting from or arising out of any material inaccuracy or material breach of any representations or warranties made by such Member under this Agreement. No Member shall receive any credit to its Capital Account or Unreturned Contribution Account or otherwise be reimbursed by the Company for any amounts paid by such Member pursuant to this Section 9.05.

10.02    Exculpation, Indemnity and Reliance on Information
The Members hereby agree to the exculpation, indemnity and other provisions set forth below as follows:
(a)    Liability. No authorized Person, Member or Officer of the Company, or, if designated by the Executive Committee, any Affiliate or any direct and indirect members, partners, shareholders, directors, officers, managers, trustees and employees of any Member (collectively, the "Covered Persons") shall be liable or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Company or to any Member for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law or for anything that such Covered Person may do or refrain from doing hereafter, except to the extent caused by such Covered Person's fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of this Agreement.

(b)    Indemnity. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify, defend (with counsel selected by the Executive Committee), protect and hold harmless, each Covered Person, from and against any and all Losses incurred by such Covered Person by reason of anything which such Covered Person may do or refrain from doing that arises out of or relates to the Company to the extent such Losses are not covered by insurance maintained by or for the benefit of such Covered Person. The foregoing obligation of the Company to indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless each Covered Person shall extend to any Losses incurred by any Guarantor under any Recourse Document or Nonrecourse Document (or as a result of the rights of contribution described in Section 3.05). Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Section 10.02(b), no Covered Person (including any Guarantor) shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Company to the extent any such Losses are incurred by such Covered Person by reason of such Covered Person's fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of this Agreement (other than a failure to pay any amounts due under any such Recourse Document or Nonrecourse Document as a result of the breach or default of the Company).

The Administrative Member may cause the Company to pay any costs and/or expenses incurred by any Covered Person in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding prior to the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of any undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person (or, in the Executive Committee's reasonable discretion, a

(b). The obligation of the Company to indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless each Covered Person under any provision of this Agreement shall survive the withdrawal of any Member from the Company and/or the liquidation of the Company, in each case solely to the extent such obligation of the Company arose prior to such withdrawal or liquidation.

If a claim for indemnification or payment of expenses under this Section 10.02(b) is not paid in full within thirty (30) calendar days after a written claim therefor by the Covered Person has been received by the Company, then the Covered Person may initiate an action to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. In any such action, the Covered Person shall have the burden of proving that the Covered Person was entitled to the requested indemnification or payment of expenses under applicable law.

(c)    Reliance upon Information, Opinions, Reports, etc. A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company, any information received by any Member or the Company with respect to the Project (financial or otherwise), and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any Person as to matters the Covered Person reasonably believes are within such other Person's professional or expert competence including, without limitation, information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses or cash flow or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions to Members might properly be paid.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (and without limiting any liability a party may have under the Delaware Act or other applicable law to return any distribution received by such party), no direct or indirect member, manager, partner, shareholder, officer, director, trustee or employee in or of any Member (collectively, the "Nonrecourse Parties") shall be personally liable in any manner or to any extent under or in connection with this Agreement, and neither any Member nor the Company shall have any recourse to any assets of any of the Nonrecourse Parties. Neither any Member nor any Nonrecourse Party shall have any liability for any punitive damages, lost profits, special damages or consequential damages based on any claim that arises out of or relates to this Agreement and/or the Company. The limitations on liability provided in this Section 10.03 is in addition to, and not in limitation of, any limitation on liability applicable to any Member or Nonrecourse Party provided by law or by this Agreement or any other contract, agreement or instrument.

Subject to the terms hereof, each Member and their respective Affiliates, direct and indirect members, partners, shareholders, directors, managers, officers, employees, agents and trustees shall only be required to devote so much of their time to the business and affairs of the Company as is determined in the reasonable discretion of each such party. Subject to Section 10.05, neither Member nor any of its direct and indirect Affiliates, members, partners, shareholders, directors, officers, managers, employees, agents or trustees shall be prohibited from engaging in other businesses whether or not similar to the business of the Company.

10.05    Restrictions on Competition
(a)        Covenant Not to Compete. Each Member (the "Competing Member") hereby agrees (as a material inducement to the other Member to enter into this Agreement) that neither such Member nor any Affiliate thereof shall, without the prior written consent of the other Member (the "Non-Competing Member"), which consent may be withheld in such Non-Competing Member's sole and absolute discretion, directly or indirectly, whether or not for compensation (as a proprietor, partner, member, lender, shareholder, affiliate, officer, agent, director, consultant, trustee or otherwise) develop or construct a speculative industrial building (i.e., a building constructed without a tenant that has agreed to lease such building) that contains between one hundred twenty-five thousand (125,000) and one million (1,000,000) square feet of gross leasable area that is located in Kern County, California. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members acknowledge that (i) Tejon (and/or an Affiliate thereof) owns two (2) industrial projects at the Tejon Ranch Commerce Center commonly referred to as the 606,000 SF Five West Parcel and the 62-acre site known as Pads 18/19 (which are located in the immediate vicinity of the Project), and (ii) the Members and/or one (1) or more of their Affiliates have formed a limited liability company and together may form one (1) or more other limited liability companies or other entities in the future and each Member and its Affiliates may undertake any activities with respect to such real property described in clause (i) or clause (ii) above without regard to the restrictions set forth in this Section 10.05(a).

(b)    Termination of Restrictions. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the restrictions set forth in Section 10.05(a) shall terminate for each Member on the first to occur of the date that (i) at least ninety percent (90%) of the gross leasable area contained in the Project has been leased, (ii) Tejon or Majestic withdraws as a member of the Company (exclusive of any withdrawal resulting from any Transfer of any Member's Interest to any Permitted Transferee), or (iii) the Company dissolves and liquidates.

(c)        Constructive Trust. If the Competing Member (or any Affiliate thereof), directly or indirectly, breaches or violates the terms of Section 10.05(a), then, in addition to any other rights or remedies the Non-Competing Member and/or the Company may have against the Competing Member (or such Affiliate) at law or in equity, the Competing Member shall be accountable to, and shall hold in trust for, the Company, any income, compensation or profit that the Competing Member (or such Affiliate) may derive from engaging in such activities.
(d)    Enforceability of Restrictions. If any of the restrictions in this Section 10.05 shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too

FINAL VERSION



great a period of time, or over too great a geographical area, or by reason of any such restriction being too extensive in any other respect, then such restriction shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time for which it may be enforceable, and/or over the maximum geographical area as to which it may be enforceable and/or to the maximum extent in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable, all as determined by such court in such action.

(e)        Irreparable Damage. Any breach of the covenants contained in this Section 10.05 by the Competing Member and/or any Affiliate thereof will cause irreparable damage to the Company and the Non-Competing Member, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain, and the remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, if the Competing Member and/or any Affiliate thereof breaches the covenants contained in this Section 10.05, then in addition to any other remedy which may be available at law or in equity, the Company and the Non-Competing Member shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief, without, in the event of a final judgment, posting a bond or other security.

10.06    Fiduciary Duties

Upon the Liquidation of the Company caused by other than the termination of the Company under Section 708(b)(1)(b) of the Code (in which latter case the Company shall remain in existence in accordance with the provisions of such Section of the Code), the Administrative Member shall proceed to the winding up of the business and affairs of the Company. During such winding up process, the Net Profits, Net Losses and Cash Flow distributions shall continue to be shared by the Members in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to Section 12.03, the assets shall be liquidated as promptly as consistent with obtaining a fair value therefor, and the proceeds therefrom, to the extent available, shall be applied and distributed by the Company on or before the end of the taxable year of such Liquidation or, if later, within ninety (90) days after such Liquidation, in the following order:

(b)    Reserves. Second, to establishing any reserves which the Administrative Member reasonably determines are necessary for any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Company; and

If this is not the result, then the Administrative Member, upon the advice of tax counsel to the Company, is hereby authorized to make such amendments to the provisions of Article IV that are reasonably approved by the Executive Committee as may be necessary to cause such allocations to be in compliance with Code Section 704(b) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

13.18    Dispute Resolution
Any action to resolve any controversy or claim arising out of, or related to in any way to, this Agreement (exclusive of any impasse on any Major Decision) or the Contribution Agreement, including, without limitation, any alleged breach of this Agreement or the Contribution Agreement and any claim based upon any tort theory, however characterized shall be resolved through a binding arbitration before an arbitrator in accordance with the terms of this Section 13.18.

(a)        Binding Arbitration. Any Member desiring to bring any action under this Agreement or the Contribution Agreement shall give written notice to the other Member (the "Arbitration Notice"), which notice shall state with particularity the nature of the dispute and the demand for relief, making specific reference by Section and title, if applicable, of the provisions of this Agreement or the Contribution Agreement pertaining to the dispute. This arbitration provision and its validity, construction, and performance shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (the "FAA") and cases decided thereunder and, to the extent relevant, the laws of the State of California. Further, the terms and procedures governing the enforcement of this Section 13.18 shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the FAA, and not individual state laws regarding enforcement of arbitration agreements.

(b)    Selection of Arbitrator. The Members shall endeavor to agree, within thirty (30) days of the Arbitration Notice, upon a mutually acceptable arbitrator to resolve the dispute. The arbitrator shall be a single former judge of the Superior Court or the Court of Appeal of the State of California or a member in good standing with the California State Bar currently employed by or associated with the office of JAMS/ENDISPUTE ("JAMS") located in Los Angeles, California. The arbitrator shall have no direct or indirect social, political or business relationship of any sort with either of the Members, their respective legal counsel, or any other Person materially involved with the Project. If the Members cannot agree upon the arbitrator within such thirty (30)-day period, then JAMS, in its sole discretion, shall provide a list of three (3) arbitrators with the qualifications set forth above. Within ten (10) days of JAMS providing the above-described list, each Member shall be entitled to strike one (1) name from the list and so notify JAMS. JAMS, in its sole discretion, thereafter shall select as arbitrator any one (1) of the persons remaining on the list, and the person so selected shall thereafter serve as arbitrator. If for any reason JAMS is unable or unwilling to make such an appointment, then any Member may apply to the Superior Court of the State of California in and for the County of Los Angeles for appointment of any former judge of the Superior Court or the Court of Appeal of the State of California to serve as arbitrator. The appointment of an arbitrator, whether by JAMS or by the Superior Court pursuant to the foregoing, shall be made, and the arbitrator shall serve, without further objection from any Member, except on the ground of conflict of interest, if any, pursuant to the same rules that would apply if the arbitrator was serving as an active member of the Superior Court or Court of Appeal.

(c)        Location of Proceeding. The proceeding shall take place at a City of Los Angeles office of JAMS and shall be conducted pursuant to the provisions of JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures in effect on the date of the Arbitration Notice (the "Rules"); provided that in all events the rules of evidence in such proceeding shall be governed by the California Evidence Code. Discovery between the parties prior to the arbitration hearing shall be limited to the mutual exchange of relevant

documents. Interrogatories and request for admissions shall not be allowed under any circumstance. Depositions of witnesses shall not be permitted, unless it is shown that the witness will be otherwise unavailable and it is necessary to preserve his or her testimony for the hearing. The arbitrator shall have the authority set forth in Section 1282.6 of the California Code of Civil Procedure to issue subpoenas requiring the attendance at the hearing of witnesses, and to issue subpoenas duces tecum for the production at the hearing of books, records, documents and other evidence.

(d)    Resolution Dispute. In resolving the dispute, the arbitrator shall apply Delaware law to the matter being considered under this Agreement. In resolving the dispute, the arbitrator shall apply the pertinent provisions of this Agreement without departure therefrom in any respect, and the arbitrator shall not have the power to change any of the provisions of the Agreement. The arbitrator shall try all of the issues including, without limitation, any issues that may be raised concerning whether the dispute is subject to the provisions of this Section 13.18 and any and all other issues, whether of fact or of law, and shall hear and decide all motions and matters of any kind. The arbitrator shall not be required to prepare a written statement of decision as to any interlocutory decision, but at the conclusion of the arbitration shall prepare a written statement of decision thereon which shall be final and binding upon the parties, and upon which judgment may be entered in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any interlocutory decisions by the arbitrator likewise shall be final and binding, except that the arbitrator shall have the power to reconsider such decisions for good cause shown. The Members shall not have the right to appeal the arbitration award consistent with the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure in effect at the time or any similar successor rules.

EXHIBIT "H"
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
Except for transfers permitted by Sections 6.02(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) each time a Member (an "Offeror") proposes to voluntarily transfer, assign, convey, sell, or otherwise dispose of its entire Interest (an "Offered Interest"), such Offeror shall first offer such Offered Interest to the non-transferring Member in accordance with the following provisions:
(a)    The Offeror shall deliver a written notice (the "Offer Notice") to the non-transferring Member stating (i) such Offeror's bona fide intention to transfer the Offered Interest, (ii) the name and address of the proposed transferee, and (iii) the purchase price and terms of payment for which the Offeror proposes to transfer the Offered Interest. The Offer Notice shall constitute a revocable offer by the Offeror to sell the Offered Interest to the other Member on the terms and conditions set forth in this Exhibit "H."
(b)    Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Offer Notice, the non-transferring Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase the entire Offered Interest for the price and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice by delivering written notice of such election (the "Purchase Election") to the Offeror. The failure of non-transferring Member to submit a notice within such thirty (30) day period shall constitute an irrevocable rejection of the offer made by the Offeror to sell the Offered Interest to the non-transferring Member.
(c)    If the non-transferring Member timely elects to purchase the entire Offered Interest prior to the Offeror's written revocation of the Offer, then the closing for the Offered Interest shall be made upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice including, without limitation, price, terms of payment and closing date; provided, however, if the terms of the proposed transfer include the payment by the Offeror of a commission, then the purchase price shall be reduced by the amount of such commission. The Offeror and the non-transferring Member shall execute such documents and instruments and make such deliveries as may be reasonably required to consummate the transfer. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Exhibit "H," the Offeror shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 8.07 of the Agreement at the closing for the purchase and sale of the Offered Interest.
(d)    If the non-transferring Member does not timely elect to purchase the entire Offered Interest (or if the non-transferring Member breaches its obligation to purchase the entire Offered Interest), then the Offeror may transfer the entire Offered Interest to the proposed transferee described in the Offer Notice, provided such transfer (i) is completed within ninety (90) days after the expiration of the non-transferring Member's right to purchase the Offered

Interest (or within 90 days following the breach by the non-transferring Member of its obligation to purchase the entire Offered Interest, if applicable), (ii) is made at the price and on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Offeror than as described in the Offer Notice, (iii) would not constitute a default or breach by the Company under any loan agreement or document to which the Company is a party (unless the lender consents to such transfer), and (iv) the requirements of Section 6.03 are met. If the Offered Interest is not so transferred within such ninety (90)-day period, then the Offeror shall be required to comply again with the provisions of this Exhibit "H" prior to voluntarily transferring, assigning, conveying, selling or otherwise disposing of the Offered Interest to any Person (except for any transfer to any Person permitted by Sections 6.02(a), (b), (c) (d) and (e) above). In addition, in the event of a breach by the non-transferring Member of its obligation to purchase, such non-transferring Member shall not have a right to elect to purchase an Offered Interest with respect to a transfer of an Interest which is consummated within one (1) year after such breach.
(e)    If any transferee purchases an Interest pursuant to the procedure described in this Exhibit "H," then such transferee shall be admitted to the Company as a substituted member upon the closing of such purchase and sale and the satisfaction of the requirements of Section 6.03.
