The provisions set forth in this paragraph shall survive Closing.

3. Phase 2 Water Service. Buyer hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of that certain First Amendment to the Water Service Agreement, dated July 22, 2010, by and between Seller and The Alameda County Water District (“ACWD”), pursuant to which Seller elected not to cause the ACWD to construct “Phase 2” of a twelve inch pipeline to provide water service from the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission water system to the Property (the “Phase 2 Water Service”).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Letter Agreement, Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that in no event shall Seller have any obligation to provide the Phase 2 Water Service to the Property, or have any liability in connection with any failure to provide the Phase 2 Water Service to the Property.

4. Temporary Water Pipeline Easement. At Closing, Seller and Buyer shall enter into a Utility Easement Agreement burdening that certain parcel adjacent to the Property commonly known as 45500 Fremont Boulevard, Fremont, California (“Parcel 3”) (the “Parcel 3 Utility Easement Agreement”), pursuant to which Seller shall grant to Buyer (a) a temporary easement over that certain area in which the existing pipeline (which previously provided water service from the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission water system to the Property) is located (the “Existing Pipeline Easement Area”), and (b) an easement over that certain area along the eastern and northern boundaries of Parcel 3 (as more particularly described in the Parcel 3 Utility Easement Agreement) (the “New Pipeline Easement Area”). Buyer hereby agrees to promptly and diligently complete the construction of a new pipeline in the New Pipeline Easement Area after Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the easement over the Existing Pipeline Easement Area shall automatically terminate with no further action required by either party upon the earlier of (c) the completion of the construction of a new pipeline in the New Pipeline Easement Area or (d) December 31, 2011, and upon such termination, Buyer shall have no further rights to use the existing pipelines located in the Existing Pipeline Easement Area. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if Buyer fails to complete the construction of a new pipeline in the New Pipeline Easement Area on or before December 31, 2012, the easement over the New Pipeline Easement Area shall automatically terminate with no further action required by either party. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that Seller’s sole remedy in the event that Buyer fails to complete any construction in the time periods set forth herein shall be the automatic termination of the applicable easements. The provisions set forth in this paragraph shall survive Closing.

(b) In consideration for the transfer of the Permits, Buyer shall pay to Seller Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($6,500,000.00), the sum of which shall be placed into escrow by Buyer at Closing. Upon written approval of the transfer of the Permits by applicable governmental agencies from Seller to Buyer, Title Company shall release the full sum of Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($6,500,000.00) to Seller.

(c) Seller represents, to the best of its knowledge, that the Permits include rights to emit or bank approximately one thousand, eight hundred (1800) tons/year (“TPY”) of volatile organic compounds (“VOCs”), sixty six (66) TPY of oxides of nitrogen (“NOx”) and ninety six (96) TPY of carbon monoxide (“CO”) (collectively “Pollutants”). These rights to emit or bank such Pollutants shall transfer with the Permit. Buyer believes, based on its internal estimates, these rights are in excess of the amount required to produce a minimum of two hundred fifty thousand (250,000) vehicles per year.

(d) The provisions of this Section B 9 shall survive the Closing.

10. Mutual Releases.

(a) Seller and Buyer each hereby acknowledge and agree that as of the Effective Date, neither party has any actual knowledge of any defaults under the Letter Agreement on the part of the other party which have not been cured or waived. Without limiting the provisions set forth in Section 4(o) of the Original Letter Agreement, and any matters set forth in any document executed and delivered concurrently with or after Closing (including, without limitation, those certain Trust Agreement and Access Agreement, each entered into by Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date), each party (the “Releasing Party”), on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns waives its right to recover from, and forever releases and discharges, the other party, its affiliates, investment manager, and the partners, trustees, shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents of each of them, and their respective heirs, successors, personal representatives and assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all demands, claims, legal or administrative proceedings, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties, fines, liens, judgments, costs or expenses whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs), whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, that may arise on account of or in any way be connected with the breach by any party under the terms of the Letter Agreement, where such breach originated prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that such waiver and release from the Releasing Party to the Released Parties will not affect or in any way limit either party’s rights with respect to (i) any representations and warranties provided by either party and set forth in the Original Letter Agreement; or (ii) NUMMI’s obligation to complete the Decommissioning Plan; or (iii) the obligation by NUMMI to pay brokers’ fees in connection with the transaction.

(b) In connection with subsection (a), each party expressly waives the benefits of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides as follows: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

(c) The provisions of this Section B.10 shall survive the Closing.

11. Agreement Regarding Machinery and Equipment Property Taxes. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that Seller is permitted to remove any machinery and equipment owned by Seller that is located on the Property, or to abandon any such machinery and equipment, on or before March 31, 2011, and that any machinery and equipment that remains on the Property after March 31, 2011 shall be deemed abandoned by Seller. Seller shall have no obligation to remove such abandoned machinery and equipment from the Property. With respect to such abandoned machinery and equipment, including all items classified for tax purposes as either personal property or fixtures (“Residual Equipment”), the parties hereby acknowledge and agree as follows:

(a) Seller has actively but unsuccessfully sought to market and sell the Residual Equipment, through third-party auction companies (including, without limitation, Hilco Industrial and Maynards Industries) and otherwise.

(b) Notwithstanding Seller’s aforementioned efforts, the Residual Equipment was not sold or otherwise transferred to third parties. The parties agree that the Residual Equipment has no value and that its age and condition indicates that the market value is zero.

(c) At such time as the parties may agree, but in any event no later than March 31, 2011, Seller agrees to convey and transfer at no charge to Buyer all of Seller’s ownership interest in the Residual Equipment, and Buyer agrees to accept ownership interest in the Residual Equipment. Seller shall transfer title to such Residual Equipment by a bill of sale in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(d) Upon such conveyance, Buyer shall accept ownership of such Residual Equipment, and shall be solely responsible for any demolition or removal of the Residual Equipment from the Property.

(e) Subject to the provisions set forth in Paragraph 4(m) of the Letter Agreement with respect to Seller’s winding-up of its affairs, Seller hereby agrees to cooperate with Buyer (to the extent that appropriate employees of Seller are available) to identify each of the assets constituting the Residual Equipment.

(f) The provisions of this Section B.11 shall survive the Closing.

12. Payment of Real and Personal Property Taxes. At Closing, First American Title Insurance Company (“Title Company”) shall withhold from Seller’s proceeds the sum of Seven Million Twenty-Two Thousand Two Hundred Twenty-One Dollars and sixty-six cents ($7,022,221.66) and shall apply such funds as provided in this Paragraph B.12 (the “Holdback Funds”). Five Million Three Hundred Sixteen Thousand Three Hundred Eighty Dollars and forty-one cents ($5,316,380.41) of the Holdback Funds shall be used to pay the first installment of real and personal property taxes due for the 2010-2011 tax year, which installment shall be paid in full by Title Company on the Closing Date or promptly thereafter. The balance of the Holdback Funds (the “Remainder Funds”) shall be applied against the then-current second

installment of real and personal property taxes for the 2010-2011 tax year. Buyer hereby covenants and agrees that it shall pay the balance of the second installment of such real and personal property taxes (in excess of the Remainder Funds) via wire to the Title Company on or before April 1, 2011. Seller and Buyer shall request that Title Company cooperate with Buyer, and Buyer hereby agrees that it shall cooperate with the Title Company, so that the second installment of such real and personal property taxes can be paid by Title Company in a single lump sum installment on or before April 4, 2011. In the event Buyer fails to wire in its funds into escrow reflecting the balance of such second installment on a timely basis (time being of the essence), then Title Company shall be authorized (without further instructions from any party) to disburse the Remainder Funds to Seller and Seller shall thereafter use commercially reasonable and good faith efforts to pay such Reminder Funds to the Tax Collector, either directly or in coordination with Buyer, provided that Seller shall not be responsible for any penalties or costs attributable to a late payment. Seller and Buyer acknowledge that Title Company is retaining the Holdback Funds and the Remainder Funds as a convenience to the parties hereto and that Title Company shall not be responsible for any penalties or costs attributable to late payments. The provisions set forth in this paragraph shall survive closing.

C. No Further Modifications. Except as set forth herein, the Letter Agreement remains unmodified and in full force and effect. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of the Letter Agreement and this Amendment No. 6, the terms of this Amendment No. 6 shall control, except that the definition of the term “Seller” as used in the Letter Agreement, which includes Seller’s designee, shall apply to this 6th Amendment.

D. Governing Law. This Amendment No. 6 shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California.

E. Counterparts. This Amendment No. 6 may be executed in two or more counterparts, which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The parties contemplate that they may be executing counterparts of this Amendment No. 6 transmitted by facsimile and agree and intend that a signature by facsimile machine shall bind the party so signing with the same effect as though the signature were an original signature.
