What is an Addendum To Purchase And Sale Agreement?
An addendum to purchase and sale agreement is a kind of attachment to a real estate contract that adds new terms and conditions to the original contract. An addendum to purchase and sale agreement can be attached to a contract to modify the actual terms. However, it can also expand on or include additional information relevant to the original agreement.
Addendums to purchase and sale agreements are often changes to closing dates, inspection periods, or pricing. These addendums must obtain agreement from both parties to go into effect and modify the original contract.

Exhibit 10.48
ADDENDUM TO PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
WITH JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS
This ADDENDUM TO PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT WITH JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS (“Addendum”) is made and entered into as of June 25, 2003, by and between UNIFIED WESTERN GROCERS, INC., a California corporation (“Seller”), and THE ALAMO GROUP, INC., a California corporation (“Buyer”), who agree as follows:
1. This Addendum supplements and forms a part of the Purchase and Sale Agreement With Joint Escrow Instructions (“Agreement”) made and entered into as of June 19, 2003, by and between Seller and Buyer. Capitalized terms used in this Addendum, but which are not otherwise defined in this Addendum, have the meanings given to them in the Agreement.
2. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.3 of the Agreement to the contrary, the Parties desire to provide for a different closing schedule and for certain other agreements respecting the Category A Location designated on Exhibit “A” to the Agreement as “North Highlands, CA” (the “North Highlands Location”). As such, the Parties agree as follows respecting the North Highlands Location:
(a) The Closing Date for purposes of the North Highlands Location shall occur on July 31, 2003, or such earlier date as is mutually agreed on in writing by the Parties.
(b) The Inspection Period for purposes of the North Highlands Location shall be deemed to have expired as of the date of this Addendum and (i) Buyer shall be deemed to have approved of all matters which might have been disapproved by Buyer under Section 6.2(a) of the Agreement and (ii) shall be deemed to have waived its right to give a Notice of Objection with respect to all matters which might have been objected to by Buyer under Section 6.3 of the Agreement.
(c) For the Assets (exclusive of the Liquor License) relating to the North Highlands Location, Seller shall pay to Buyer the sum of Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($700,000), which amount shall reduce (dollar for dollar) the Category A Price as the same relates to all Category A Locations other than the North Highlands Location.
(d) If Buyer or any “Affiliate” of Buyer (as defined below) acquires fee simple ownership of the land of which the North Highlands Location is a part and/or acquires all or any part of the right, title or interest of the landlord under the Lease relating to the North Highlands Location (whether by operation of law or otherwise), then Seller shall thereupon automatically be released from all liabilities and obligations under that Lease arising from and after the date of such acquisition. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer agrees to deliver to Seller such agreements and documentation evidencing any such release as is reasonably acceptable to Seller. As used in this Addendum, the term “Affiliate” means any person or entity which controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, Buyer or any shareholder of Buyer and includes, without limitation, any person or entity which beneficially owns any interest in any of the shares of Buyer and any entity the shares or other equity interests of which are owned in whole or in part by Buyer or any shareholder of Buyer.

3. As a material inducement and material consideration to Seller to enter into this Addendum and to agree to sell to Buyer the North Highlands Location in accordance with the terms of this Addendum, Buyer agrees as follows: If Buyer consummates the purchase of the Assets relating to the North Highlands Location only, and Buyer does not consummate the purchase of the Assets relating to any of the other Category A Locations or any of the Category B Locations for any reason other than the default of Seller under the Agreement, then Buyer shall pay to Seller the sum of Seventy Thousand Dollars ($70,000) immediately upon demand by Seller.
4. Except as modified and supplemented by this Addendum, the Agreement and its applicability to the North Highlands Location remains unmodified and in full force and effect.
The Parties have caused this Addendum to be duly executed by their respective duly authorized officers or agents as of the date first set forth above.

Hi, I’m Kevin Flaherty, an Illinois-licensed attorney with extensive experience negotiating and drafting complex commercial agreements for engineering firms, technology companies, public agencies, and small-to-mid-sized businesses.

Built contract playbooks, drafting standards, review matrices, and workflows designed to help clients understand their risks clearly and move deals forward with confidence. Provided training and guidance to internal teams and leadership on contract strategy, compliance considerations, and best practices. I bring not only legal expertise, but also a practical, problem-solving mindset—translating dense legal terms into actionable business decisions and helping clients protect their interests without losing momentum.

I’m a commercial contracts attorney who helps growing companies get out of contract chaos and into something sustainable. I focus on the agreements that sit at the core of how companies operate—customer contracts, vendor deals, SaaS agreements, and supply and distribution relationships. Before going independent, I worked in private practice and embedded legal roles supporting technology, consumer goods, and manufacturing businesses. That experience shaped a practical, business-first approach to contracts: clear drafting, efficient negotiation, and advice grounded in how companies actually operate. I hold the CIPP/US credential and have completed AI governance training, which informs my work on data, privacy, and AI-adjacent risk terms commonly found in modern commercial agreements. If you want contracts that are clear, balanced, and usable by the people who sign and manage them, that’s where I’m most effective.
