On October 23, 2008, Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (the "Company" or "EFI") entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions (the "Agreement") with Gilead Sciences, Inc. ("Gilead"), pursuant to which the Company will sell certain real property and improvements and certain other assets to Gilead for a total purchase price of $137,500,000 (the "Purchase Price"). The transaction is subject to various closing conditions.

The Company currently owns approximately thirty-five acres of land and two office buildings located at 301 and 303 Velocity Way, Foster City, California, respectively. The property to be sold pursuant to the Agreement includes approximately thirty acres of land, which is entitled for development, the office building located at 301 Velocity Way consisting of approximately 163,000 square feet and certain other assets related to the property (collectively, the "Property"). The Company will retain ownership of the remaining land and the office building located at 303 Velocity Way consisting of approximately 295,000 square feet on approximately five acres of land, which is the Company's current headquarters.

Gilead agreed to deposit in escrow, within two business days after the date of the Agreement, $5,000,000 toward the Purchase Price. On or prior to December 12, 2008, Gilead may terminate the Agreement in its sole discretion. If Gilead elects to proceed with the purchase, Gilead will deposit in escrow an additional $5,000,000 on or around December 12, 2008.

Gilead may also terminate the Agreement (i) if EFI breaches the terms of the Agreement and fails to cure such breach prior to closing; and (ii) if, prior to closing of the sale of the Property, there is any condemnation, damage or destruction as a result of fire or other casualty that is reasonably estimated to cost or be valued at more than $5,000,000.
