At any time on or before the date on which the Feasibility Period expires, but except as otherwise provided in the proviso of the last sentence of Section 2.2.1, if Escrow Agent shall receive a demand from Purchaser, requesting a return of the Initial Deposit, then Escrow Agent shall promptly, without the need of confirmation from, and irrespective of any notice to the contrary sent to it by, Seller, return an amount equal to the Initial Deposit less the Materials Security Deposit to Purchaser, in which event this Contract shall be deemed to have been terminated by Purchaser and the Materials Security Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser only upon Sellers' written confirmation that Purchaser has returned all Third-Party Reports and Required Return Documents provided to Purchaser.  If, after the expiration of the Feasibility Period, the Deposit has not been released earlier in accordance with Section 2.3.2 or the preceding sentence of this Section 2.3.3, and Purchaser or Seller's Representative makes a written demand upon Escrow Agent for payment of the Deposit, Escrow Agent shall give written notice to the other parties of such demand.  If Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection from another party to the proposed payment within 5 Business Days after the giving of such notice, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make such payment (subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party Reports and Required Return Documents provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Materials Security Deposit to Purchaser).  If Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within such 5-Business Day period, Escrow Agent shall continue to hold such amount until otherwise directed by written instructions from the parties to this Contract or a final judgment or arbitrator's decision.  However, Escrow Agent shall have the right at any time to deposit the Deposit and interest thereon, if any, with a court of competent jurisdiction in the state in which a Property is located.  Escrow Agent shall give written notice of such deposit to Seller's Representative and Purchaser.  Upon such deposit, Escrow Agent shall be relieved and discharged of all further obligations and responsibilities hereunder.  Sellers hereby appoint Seller's Representative to give and receive notices to Escrow Agent regarding the Deposit.

2.3.4

The parties acknowledge that Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, and that Escrow Agent shall not be deemed to be the agent of any of the parties for any act or omission on its part unless taken or suffered in bad faith in willful disregard of this Contract or involving gross negligence.  Sellers and Purchaser jointly and severally shall indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and







against all costs, claims and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred in connection with the performance of Escrow Agent's duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or suffered by Escrow Agent in bad faith, in willful disregard of this Contract or involving gross negligence on the part of the Escrow Agent.

2.3.5

The parties shall deliver to Escrow Agent an executed copy of this Contract, which shall constitute the sole instructions to Escrow Agent.  Escrow Agent shall execute the signature page for Escrow Agent attached hereto with respect to the provisions of this Section 2.3; provided, however, that (a) Escrow Agent's signature hereon shall not be a prerequisite to the binding nature of this Contract on Purchaser and Sellers, and the same shall become fully effective upon execution by Purchaser and Sellers, and (b) the signature of Escrow Agent will not be necessary to amend any provision of this Contract other than this Section 2.3.

2.3.6

Escrow Agent, as the person responsible for closing the transaction within the meaning of Section 6045(e)(2)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), shall file all necessary information, reports, returns, and statements regarding the transaction required by the Code including, but not limited to, the tax reports required pursuant to Section 6045 of the Code.  Further, Escrow Agent agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser, Sellers, and their respective attorneys and brokers harmless from and against any Losses resulting from Escrow Agent's failure to file the reports Escrow Agent is required to file pursuant to this section.

2.3.7

The provisions of this Section 2.3 shall survive the termination of this Contract, and if not so terminated, the Closing and delivery of the Deeds to Purchaser.

ARTICLE III

Feasibility Period.  Subject to the terms of Sections 3.3 and 3.4 and the right of Tenants under the Leases, from the Effective Date to and including September 16, 2005 (the "Feasibility Period"), Purchaser, and its agents, contractors, engineers, surveyors, attorneys, and employees (collectively, "Consultants") shall have the right from time to time to enter onto the Properties:

3.1.1

To conduct and make any and all customary studies, tests, examinations, inquiries, and inspections, or investigations (collectively, the "Inspections") of or concerning the Properties (including, without limitation, engineering and feasibility studies, evaluation of drainage and flood plain, soil tests for bearing capacity and percolation and surveys, including topographical surveys);

3.1.4

To review the Materials at Purchaser's sole cost and expense.







3.2

Expiration of Feasibility Period.  If the results of any of the matters referred to in Section 3.1 appear unsatisfactory to Purchaser for any reason or if Purchaser elects not to proceed with the transaction contemplated by this Contract for any other reason, or for no reason whatsoever, in Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion, then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Contract in its entirety with respect to all Properties (but not in part with respect to less than all Properties) by giving written notice to that effect to Seller's Representative and Escrow Agent on or before 5:00 p.m. (in the time zone in which the Escrow Agent is located) on the date of expiration of the Feasibility Period.  If Purchaser exercises such right to terminate, this Contract shall terminate and be of no further force and effect subject to and except for the Survival Provisions, and Escrow Agent shall forthwith return the Initial Deposit to Purchaser (subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party Reports and Required Return Documents provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Materials Security Deposit).  If Purchaser fails to provide Seller's Representative with written notice of termination prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period in strict accordance with the notice provisions of this Contract, Purchaser's right to terminate under this Section 3.2 shall be permanently waived and this Contract shall remain in full force and effect, the Deposit (including both the Initial Deposit and, when delivered in accordance with Section 2.2.2, the Additional Deposit) shall be non-refundable, and Purchaser's obligation to purchase the Properties shall be non-contingent and unconditional except only for satisfaction of the conditions expressly stated in Section 8.1.

3.3

Conduct of Investigation.  Purchaser shall not permit any mechanic's or materialmen's liens or any other liens to attach to any Property by reason of the performance of any work or the purchase of any materials by Purchaser or any other party in connection with any Inspections conducted by or for Purchaser.  Purchaser shall give notice (which may be delivered telephonically) to the applicable Seller a reasonable time prior to entry onto its Property and shall permit such Seller to have a representative present during all Inspections conducted at its Property.  Purchaser shall take all reasonable actions and implement all protections necessary to ensure that all actions taken in connection with the investigations and inspections of each Property, and all equipment, materials and substances generated, used or brought onto each Property pose no material threat to the safety of persons or the environment and cause no damage to such Property or other property of any Seller or other persons.  All information made available by any of the Sellers to Purchaser in accordance with this Contract or obtained by Purchaser in the course of its Inspections shall be treated as confidential information by Purchaser, and, prior to the purchase of the Properties by Purchaser, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts and diligence to prevent its Consultants from divulging such information to any unrelated third parties except as reasonably necessary to third parties engaged by Purchaser for the limited purpose of analyzing and investigating such information for the purpose of consummating the transaction contemplated by this Contract.  The provisions of this Section 3.3 shall survive the termination of this Contract, and if not so terminated shall survive (except for the confidentiality provisions of this Section 3.3) the Closing and delivery of the Deeds to Purchaser.

3.4

Purchaser Indemnification.

3.4.1

Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and, if requested by a Seller (in such Seller's sole discretion), defend (with counsel approved by such Seller) such Seller, together







with such Seller's affiliates, parent and subsidiary entities, successors, assigns, partners, managers, members, employees, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, counsel, representatives, agents, Property Manager, Regional Property Manager, and AIMCO (collectively, including such Seller, "Seller's Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all damages, mechanics' liens, liabilities, penalties, interest, losses, demands, actions, causes of action, claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, including the cost of in-house counsel and appeals) (collectively, "Losses") to the extent arising from or related to Purchaser's or its Consultants' entry onto such Seller's Property, and any Inspections or other matters performed by Purchaser with respect to such Property during the Feasibility Period or otherwise.

3.4.2

Notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be permitted to perform any invasive tests on any Property without Seller's Representative's prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Seller's Representative's sole discretion.  Further, Seller's Representative shall have the right, without limitation, to disapprove any and all entries, surveys, tests (including, without limitation, a Phase II environmental study of its Property), investigations and other matters that in such Seller's Representative's reasonable judgment could result in any injury to its Property or breach of any contract, or expose the applicable Seller to any Losses or violation of applicable law, or otherwise adversely affect such Property or such Seller's interest therein.  Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize disruption to Tenants in connection with Purchaser's or its Consultants' activities pursuant to this Section.  No consent by Seller' Representative to any such activity shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the applicable Seller or assumption of liability or risk by such Seller.  Purchaser hereby agrees to restore, at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, each Property to the same condition existing immediately prior to Purchaser's exercise of its rights pursuant to this Article 3.  Purchaser shall maintain and cause its third party consultants to maintain (a) casualty insurance and comprehensive public liability insurance with coverages of not less than $1,000,000.00 for injury or death to any one person and $3,000,000.00 for injury or death to more than one person and $1,000,000.00 with respect to property damage, and (b) worker's compensation insurance for all of their respective employees in accordance with the law of the state(s) in which the Properties are located.  Purchaser shall deliver proof of the insurance coverage required pursuant to this Section 3.4.2 to Sellers (in the form of a certificate of insurance) prior to the earlier to occur of (i) Purchaser's or Purchaser's Consultants' entry onto any of the Properties, or (ii) the expiration of 5 days after the Effective Date.  

3.4.3

The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall survive the termination of this Contract, and if not so terminated, the Closing and delivery of the Deeds to Purchaser.

3.5

Property Materials.

3.5.1

Within 10 days after the Effective Date, and to the extent the same exist and are in a Seller's possession or reasonable control (subject to Section 3.5.2), each Seller agrees to make the documents set forth on Schedule 3.5 (the "Materials") relating to its Property available at its Property for review and copying by Purchaser at Purchaser's sole cost and expense.  In the alternative, at a Seller's option and within the foregoing 10-day period, such Seller may deliver some or all of its Materials to Purchaser, or make the same available to Purchaser on a secure web site (Purchaser agrees that any item to be delivered by a Seller under







this Contract shall be deemed delivered to the extent available to Purchaser on such secured web site).  To the extent that Purchaser determines that any of the Materials have not been made available or delivered to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 3.5.1, Purchaser shall notify the applicable Seller and such Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the same to Purchaser within 5 Business Days after such notification is received by such Seller; provided, however, that under no circumstances will the Feasibility Period be extended and Buyer's sole remedy will be to terminate this Contract pursuant to Section 3.2.

3.5.2

In providing such information and Materials to Purchaser, other than Seller's Representations, EACH SELLER MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS, WRITTEN, ORAL, STATUTORY, OR IMPLIED, AND ALL SUCH REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED AND DISCLAIMED.  Any information and Materials provided by any of the Sellers to Purchaser under the terms of this Contract is for informational purposes only.  All computer disks of due diligence materials and surveys (collectively, the "Required Return Documents"), together with all Third-Party Reports, shall be returned by Purchaser to all applicable Sellers as a condition to return of the Materials Security Deposit to Purchaser (if Purchaser is otherwise entitled to the Deposit pursuant to the terms of this Contract) if this Contract is terminated for any reason.  Purchaser shall not in any way be entitled to rely upon the accuracy of such information and Materials.  Purchaser recognizes and agrees that the Materials and other documents and information delivered or made available by Sellers pursuant to this Contract may not be complete or constitute all of such documents which are in a Seller's possession or control, but are those that are readily available to such Seller after reasonable inquiry to ascertain their availability.  Purchaser understands that, although each Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to locate and make available the Materials and other documents required to be delivered or made available by it pursuant to this Contract, Purchaser will not rely on such Materials or other documents as being a complete and accurate source of information with respect to such Seller's Property, and will instead in all instances rely exclusively on its own Inspections and Consultants with respect to all matters which it deems relevant to its decision to acquire, own and operate the Properties.

3.5.3

In addition to the items set forth on Schedule 3.5, no later than 10 days after the Effective Date, each Seller shall deliver to Purchaser (or otherwise make available to Purchaser as provided under Section 3.5.1) a rent roll for its Property listing the move-in date, monthly base rent payable, lease expiration date and unapplied security deposit for each Lease (the "Rent Roll").  The Rent Roll shall be part of the Materials for all purposes under this Contract and such Seller makes no representations or warranties regarding the Rent Roll other than the express representation set forth in Section 6.1.7.  Each Seller shall update the Rent Roll in accordance with Section 5.2.11.

3.5.4

The provisions of this Section 3.5 shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Deed to Purchaser.

3.6

Property Contracts.  On or before the expiration of the Feasibility Period, Purchaser may deliver written notice to each Seller (a "Property Contracts Notice") specifying any Property Contracts of such Seller which Purchaser desires to terminate at the Closing (the "Terminated Contracts"); provided that (a) the effective date of such termination after Closing







shall be subject to the express terms of such Terminated Contracts (and, to the extent that the effective date of termination of any Terminated Contract is after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have assumed all of the applicable Seller's obligations under such Terminated Contract as of the Closing Date), (b) if any such Property Contract cannot by its terms be terminated, it shall be assumed by Purchaser and not be a Terminated Contract, and (c) to the extent that any such Terminated Contract requires payment of a penalty or premium for cancellation, Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the payment of any such cancellation fees or penalties.  If Purchaser fails to deliver a Property Contracts Notice to a Seller on or before the expiration of the Feasibility Period, there shall be no Terminated Contracts with respect to such Seller (or its Property) and Purchaser shall assume all Property Contracts of such Seller at the Closing.  To the extent that any Property Contract to be assumed by Purchaser (including any Property Contract that, because of advance notice requirements, will be temporarily assumed by Purchaser pending the effective date of termination after the Closing Date) is assignable but requires the applicable vendor to consent to the assignment or assumption of the Property Contract by the applicable Seller to Purchaser, then, prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for obtaining from each applicable vendor a consent (each a "Required Assignment Consent") to the assignment of the Property Contract by the applicable Seller to Purchaser (and the assumption by Purchaser of all obligations under such Property Contract).  Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and, if requested by the applicable Seller (in such Seller's sole discretion), defend (with counsel approved by such Seller) such Seller's Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses arising from or related to Purchaser's failure to obtain any Required Assignment Consent.

ARTICLE IV
TITLE

4.1

Title Documents.  Within 7 calendar days after the Effective Date, each Seller shall cause to be delivered to Purchaser a standard form commitment for title insurance ("Title Commitment") for such Seller's Property in an amount equal to the Property's Base Purchase Price from Title Insurer for an owner's title insurance policy (the "Title Policy") on the most recent standard American Land Title Association form, together with copies of all instruments identified as exceptions therein (together with the Title Commitment, referred to herein as the "Title Documents").  Each Seller shall be responsible only for payment of the basic premium for the Title Policy for its Property.  Purchaser shall be solely responsible for payment of all other costs relating to procurement of the Title Commitment, the Title Policy, and any requested endorsements with respect to each of the Properties, including for "extended" coverage.








4.2

Survey.  Within 3 Business Days after the Effective Date, each Seller shall deliver to Purchaser or make available at such Seller's Property any existing survey of such Property (the "Existing Survey") which to such Seller's knowledge is in such Seller's possession or reasonable control (subject to Section 3.5.2).  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that delivery of the Existing Survey is subject to Section 3.5.2.  To the extent that Purchaser desires that a new survey of a Property be prepared (or that the Existing Survey be updated), Purchaser shall request the same in writing to Seller's Representative no later than 10 calendar days after the Effective Date, in which event such Seller's Representative shall order such new or updated survey (together with the Existing Survey, is referred to herein as the "Survey") from the surveyor who prepared the Existing Survey (or from such other surveyor as such Seller determines in its reasonable discretion); provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to extend either the Feasibility Period, the Objection Deadline or the Final Response Deadlines.  Purchaser shall pay to the applicable Seller 75% of the costs of the applicable Existing Survey and any new or updated survey requested pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.2; the applicable Seller shall be responsible for the remaining 25% of such costs.  Purchaser's obligation to make the payments to Sellers set forth in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of this Contract or the Closing; provided, however, if Purchaser terminates this Contract within 14 days after the Effective Date, then Purchaser shall have no obligation to pay such Survey costs.

4.3

Objection and Response Process.  On or before September 7, 2005 (the "Objection Deadline"), Purchaser shall, on a Property-by-Property basis, give written notice (the "Objection Notice") to the attorneys for Sellers of any matter set forth in any Title Documents or Surveys to which Purchaser objects (the "Objections").  If Purchaser fails to tender an Objection Notice with respect to a Property on or before the Objection Deadline, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved and irrevocably waived any objections to any matters covered by the Title Documents and the Survey for such Property.  On or before September 14, 2005 (the "Response Deadline"), a Seller who has received an Objection Notice may, in such Seller's sole discretion, give Purchaser notice (the "Response Notice") of those Objections which such Seller is willing to cure, if any.  Sellers shall be entitled to reasonable adjournments of the Closing Date to cure any Objections applicable to any Seller.  If a Seller fails to deliver a Response Notice by the Response Deadline, such Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure or otherwise resolve any matter set forth in the Objection Notice.  If Purchaser is dissatisfied with any Response Notice, Purchaser may, as its exclusive remedy, elect by written notice given to Seller's Representative on or before the expiration of the Feasibility Period (the "Final Response Deadline") either (a) to accept the Title Documents and Survey with resolution, if any, of the Objections as set forth in the Response Notice (or if no Response Notice is tendered, without any resolution of the Objections) and without any reduction or abatement of the Purchase Price, or (b) to terminate this Contract in its entirety regarding all Properties (but not less than all Properties), in which event the Initial Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser (subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party Reports and Required Return Documents provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Materials Security Deposit).  If Purchaser fails to give notice to terminate this Contract on or before the Final Response Deadline, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waived any objections to any matters covered by the Title Documents or the Survey applicable to each Property, subject only to resolution, if any, of the Objections as set forth in the



   





Response Notice for such Property (or if no Response Notice is tendered, without any resolution of the Objections).

Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waive any objections to the New Exception and the same shall be a Permitted Exception.

4.5

Existing Deed of Trust.  The provisions of this Section 4.5 apply only to Payoff Properties.  It is understood and agreed that, whether or not Purchaser gives an Objection Notice with respect thereto for a Payoff Property, any deeds of trust and/or mortgages which secure a Note for a Payoff Property (collectively, a "Deed of Trust") shall not be deemed Permitted Exceptions for such Property, whether Purchaser gives further written notice of such or not, and shall, pursuant to Section 5.4.7, be paid off, satisfied, discharged and/or cured from proceeds of the Purchase Price at Closing, provided that the Lender's Fees due in connection with such Loan Payoff shall be paid by Purchaser (subject to reduction of the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 2.2).

Certain agreements presently encumber both the Williamsburg on the Lake and Abington I and II Properties which must be assumed by Purchaser at the Closing:

With respect to the Assumed Loan Documents and the HAP Contracts, Purchaser agrees as follows:

related guarantees or letters of credit), including, without limitation, any obligation to make payments of principal and interest under the applicable Note (collectively, the foregoing (a) and (b) referred to herein as the "Loan Assumption and Release").  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (x) certain of the provisions of the Assumed Loan Documents may have been negotiated for the exclusive benefit of the applicable Seller, AIMCO or their respective affiliates (the "Specific AIMCO Provision"), and (y) unless the Lender otherwise agrees in such Lender's sole and arbitrary discretion, Purchaser will not be permitted to assume the benefit of the Specific AIMCO Provisions and the same shall be of no further force or effect from and after the Closing Date.

4.6.2.2

Purchaser agrees that, at the Closing, either (a) Purchaser shall assume all obligations under the HAP Contracts and accept title to Williamsburg on the Lake Property and Abington I and Abington II subject to the same, or (b) the existing HAP Contracts shall be terminated, and Purchaser shall enter into replacement HAP contracts which are acceptable to the Housing Authority (collectively, the foregoing (a) and (b) referred to herein as the "HAP Assumption").

4.6.3

With respect to the Loan Assumption and Release and the HAP Assumption, Purchaser agrees as follows:

4.6.3.1

Purchaser further acknowledges that the Assumed Loan Documents require the satisfaction by Purchaser of certain requirements as set forth therein to allow for the Loan Assumption and Release.  Accordingly, Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense and within 17 days after the Effective Date (the "Loan Assumption Application Submittal Deadline"), shall submit the application to the applicable Lender for assumption of each new Loan and approval of the Loan Assumption and Release, together with all documents and information required by the Assumed Loan Documents which Purchaser reasonably believes is required based on information received from the Lender (the "Loan Assumption Application").

4.6.3.2

Purchaser further acknowledges that the HAP Contracts require the satisfaction by Purchaser of certain requirements as set forth therein to allow for the HAP Assumption.  Accordingly, no later than the Loan Assumption Application Submittal Deadline, Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, shall meet with the Housing Authority and, pursuant to the HAP Contracts and form HUD-542641, shall submit all applications, documents, information, materials and fees (collectively, the "HAP Assumption Application") required by the Housing Authority in order for the Housing Authority to review and approve Purchaser's request that the Housing Authority approve the HAP Assumption (the "HAP Approval").  In addition to the foregoing, Purchaser recognizes and agrees that the Housing Authority requires Purchaser to complete and return each of the following (together with such other requirements as the Housing Authority may from time to time impose, the "Housing Authority Requirements"): (i) IHA Section 8 – Proof of Property Ownership Form, (ii) Form W9, (iii) Change of Address Form, (iv) list of tenant names, (v) list of property addresses, and (vi) proof of ownership of the property in the forms approved by the Housing Authority.  Purchaser agrees, at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, to submit the Housing Authority Requirements to the Housing Authority at such times and in such form as the Housing Authority requires (Purchaser acknowledges that all submitted materials must, in accordance with Housing Authority rules, be







uniform in name as well as list the property addresses), together with any fee required by the Housing Authority in connection therewith.  All such Housing Authority Requirements shall be submitted by Purchaser within such time frames as are necessary in order for the Closing to proceed on the scheduled Closing Date.  Further, Purchaser shall make such filings post-Closing as required by the Housing Authority for the HAP Approval.  The provisions of this Section 4.6.3.2 shall survive Closing.

Purchaser agrees to provide Seller's Representative with a copy of the Loan Assumption Application and the HAP Assumption Application no later than 2 Business Days prior to the Loan Assumption Application Submittal Deadline and shall provide evidence of its submission to Lender and to the Housing Authority on or before the Loan Assumption Application Submittal Deadline.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser is solely responsible for the preparation and submittal of the Loan Assumption Application and the HAP Assumption Application, including the collection of all materials, documents, certificates, financials, signatures, and other items required to be submitted to Lender and the Housing Authority in connection therewith.

4.6.4

Purchaser shall comply with the applicable Lender's assumption guidelines in connection with each Loan Assumption and Release and the Housing Authority's guidelines in connection with the HAP Assumption.  Purchaser shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for correcting and re-submitting any deficiencies noted by such Lender or the Housing Authority in connection with a Loan Assumption Application or the HAP Assumption Application no later than 3 Business Days after notification from such Lender or the Housing Authority of such deficiency.  Purchaser also shall provide Seller's Representative with a copy of any correspondence from a Lender or the Housing Authority with respect to a Loan Assumption Application or the HAP Assumption Application no later than 3 Business Days after receipt of such correspondence from such Lender or the Housing Authority.  Purchaser acknowledges that a Lender's assumption guidelines may not be consistent with the provisions of the applicable Assumed Loan Documents concerning the Loan Assumption and Release.  Purchaser shall coordinate with such Lender to comply with the appropriate provisions of both the applicable Assumed Loan Documents and such Lender's assumption guidelines in order to allow for the Loan Assumption and Release.

4.6.5

Purchaser shall pay all fees and expenses (including, without limitation, all servicing fees and charges, transfer fees, assumption fees, title fees, endorsement fees, and other fees to release each Seller of all liability under a Loan) imposed or charged by the Lender or the Housing Authority or their counsel (such fees and expenses collectively being referred to as the "Assumption Lender Fees"), in connection with each Loan Assumption Application, each Loan Assumption and Release, the HAP Assumption Application, and the HAP Assumption.  The provisions of this Section 4.6.5 shall survive the termination of this Contract and the Closing.

4.6.6

In connection with the Loan Assumption and Release and the HAP Assumption, Purchaser agrees as follows:

Closing Prorations and Adjustments.  The prorations set forth in this Section 5.4 shall be on a Property-by-Property basis and not among, or between, Properties, and shall not be allocated on an Applicable Share basis.

5.4.1

General.  With respect to each Property, all normal and customarily proratable items, including, without limitation, collected rents, operating expenses, personal property taxes, other operating expenses and fees, shall be prorated as of the Closing Date, the applicable Seller being charged or credited, as appropriate, for all of the same attributable to the period up to the Closing Date (and credited for any amounts paid by the applicable Seller attributable to the period on or after the Closing Date, if assumed by Purchaser) and Purchaser being responsible for, and credited or charged, as the case may be, for all of the same attributable to the period on and after the Closing Date.  Each Seller shall prepare a proration schedule (the "Proration Schedule") of the adjustments described in this Section 5.4 prior to Closing.  Such adjustments shall be paid by Purchaser to the applicable Seller (if the prorations result in a net credit to such Seller) or by such Seller to Purchaser (if the prorations result in a net credit to Purchaser for such Property), by increasing or reducing the cash to be paid by Purchaser at Closing for such Property.

5.4.2

Operating Expenses.  With respect to each Property, all of the operating, maintenance, taxes (other than real estate taxes, such as rental taxes), and other expenses incurred in operating such Property that such Seller customarily pays, and any other costs incurred in the ordinary course of business for the management and operation of such Property, shall be prorated on an accrual basis.  Each Seller shall pay all such expenses that accrue prior to Closing and Purchaser shall pay all such expenses that accrue from and after the Closing Date.

5.4.3

Utilities.  With respect to each Property, the final readings and final billings for utilities will be made if possible as of the Closing Date, in which case each Seller shall pay all such bills as of the Closing Date and no proration shall be made at the Closing with respect to utility bills.  Otherwise, a proration shall be made based upon the parties' reasonable good faith estimate and a readjustment made within 30 days after the Closing, if necessary.  Each Seller shall be entitled to the return of any deposit(s) posted by it with any utility company, and such Seller shall notify each utility company serving its Property to terminate its account, effective as of noon on the Closing Date.

5.4.4

Real Estate and Personal Property Taxes.  Any real estate ad valorem, personal property or similar taxes for a Property, or any installment of assessments payable in installments which installment is payable in calendar year 2006, with respect to the calendar year of Closing, shall be prorated to the date of Closing, based upon actual days involved.  By way of illustration and not limitation, if Closing were to occur in September 2005, the 2004 calendar year real estate and personal property taxes payable in 2005 shall be the responsibility of the applicable Seller, with the 2005 calendar year real estate and personal property taxes payable in







2006 being prorated between the applicable Seller and Purchaser to the date of Closing.  The proration of real property taxes or installments of assessments shall be based upon the assessed valuation and tax rate figures (assuming payment at the earliest time to allow for the maximum possible discount) for the year in which the Closing occurs to the extent the same are available; provided, however, that in the event that actual figures (whether for the assessed value of such Property or for the tax rate) for the year of Closing are not available at the Closing Date, the proration shall be made using 105% of the assessed valuation and tax rate figures from the preceding year (assuming payment at the earliest time to allow for the maximum possible discount).  The proration of real or personal property taxes or installments of assessments shall be final and not subject to re-adjustment after Closing.

5.4.5

Property Contracts.  Purchaser shall assume at Closing the obligations under the Property Contracts assumed by Purchaser; however, operating expenses shall be prorated under Section 5.4.2.

5.4.6

Leases.

5.4.6.1

With respect to each Property, all collected rent (whether fixed monthly rentals, additional rentals, escalation rentals, retroactive rentals, operating cost pass-throughs or other sums and charges payable by Tenants under the Leases), income and expenses from any portion of a Property shall be prorated as of the Closing Date (prorated for any partial month).  Purchaser shall receive all collected rent and income attributable to dates from and after the Closing Date.  Each Seller shall receive all collected rent and income attributable to dates prior to the Closing Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no prorations shall be made in relation to either (a) non-delinquent rents which have not been collected as of the Closing Date, or (b) delinquent rents existing, if any, as of the Closing Date (the foregoing (a) and (b) referred to herein as the "Uncollected Rents").  In adjusting for Uncollected Rents, no adjustments shall be made in a Seller's favor for rents which have accrued and are unpaid as of the Closing, but Purchaser shall pay to such Seller such accrued Uncollected Rents as and when collected by Purchaser.  Purchaser agrees to bill Tenants of the Properties for all Uncollected Rents and to take reasonable actions to collect Uncollected Rents.  After the Closing, each Seller shall continue to have the right, but not the obligation, in its own name, to demand payment of and to collect Uncollected Rents owed to such Seller by any Tenant, which right shall include, without limitation, the right to continue or commence legal actions or proceedings against any Tenant and the delivery of the Leases Assignment shall not constitute a waiver by any Seller of such right.  Purchaser agrees to cooperate with each Seller in connection with all efforts by such Seller to collect such Uncollected Rents and to take all steps, whether before or after the Closing Date, as may be necessary to carry out the intention of the foregoing, including, without limitation, the delivery to each Seller, within 7 days after a written request, of any relevant books and records (including, without limitation, rent statements, receipted bills and copies of tenant checks used in payment of such rent), the execution of any and all consents or other documents, and the undertaking of any act reasonably necessary for the collection of such Uncollected Rents by such Seller; provided, however, that Purchaser's obligation to cooperate with a Seller pursuant to this sentence shall not obligate Purchaser to terminate any Tenant Lease with an existing Tenant or evict any existing Tenant from a Property.  Notwithstanding anything in this provision to the contrary but subject to Seller's right to demand payment of and to collect Uncollected Rents in accordance with this Section, Purchaser's obligation to collect Uncollected Rents shall be limited







to Uncollected Rents of not more than 60 days past due and Purchaser's collection of rents shall be applied, first, towards current rent due and owing under the Leases, and, second, to Uncollected Rents.

5.4.6.2

At Closing, with respect to each Property, Purchaser shall receive a credit against the applicable Purchase Price in an amount equal to the received and unapplied balance of all cash (or cash equivalent) Tenant Deposits, including, but not limited to, security, damage or other refundable deposits required to be paid by any of the Tenants to secure their respective obligations under the Leases, together, in all cases, with any interest payable to the Tenants thereunder as may be required by their respective Tenant Lease or state law (the "Tenant Security Deposit Balance").  Any cash (or cash equivalents) held by a Seller which constitutes the Tenant Security Deposit Balance shall be retained by the applicable Seller in exchange for the foregoing credit against the applicable Purchase Price and shall not be transferred by such Seller pursuant to this Contract (or any of the documents delivered at Closing), but the obligation with respect to the Tenant Security Deposit Balance nonetheless shall be assumed by Purchaser.  The Tenant Security Deposit Balance shall not include any non-refundable deposits or fees paid by Tenants to any Seller, either pursuant to the Leases or otherwise.

5.4.6.3

With respect to operating expenses, taxes, utility charges, other operating cost pass-throughs, retroactive rental escalations, sums or charges payable by Tenants under the Tenant Leases for a Property, to the extent that the applicable Seller has received as of the Closing payments allocable to periods subsequent to Closing, the same shall be properly prorated with an adjustment in favor of Purchaser, and Purchaser shall receive a credit therefor at Closing for such Property.  With respect to any payments received by Purchaser after the Closing allocable to a Seller prior to Closing, Purchaser shall promptly pay the same to the applicable Seller.

5.4.7

Existing Loan-Payoff Properties.  This Section 5.4.7 shall be applicable only to Payoff Properties.  Purchaser acknowledges that Purchaser had the opportunity to assume each Note for a Payoff Property or to cause prepayment of such Note at Closing (but in either event, Purchaser would pay the Lender Fees).  Purchaser has elected to cause the debt to be prepaid.  Therefore, on the Closing Date, a sufficient amount of the proceeds of the Purchase Price will be used to pay the outstanding principal balance of the applicable Note together with all interest accrued under such Note prior to the Closing Date (the "Loan Payoff"), and Purchaser shall pay all Lender Fees (subject to reduction from the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 2.2).  Any existing reserves, impounds and other accounts maintained in connection with the Loan shall be released in Good Funds to the applicable Seller unless credited by Lender against the amount due under the Note.

5.4.8

Existing Loan-Assumption Property.  This Section 5.4.8 is applicable only to the Assumption Property.  The Seller of the Assumption Property shall be responsible for all principal required to be paid under the terms of the Note applicable to the Assumption Property prior to Closing, together with all interest accrued under such Note prior to Closing, all of which may be a credit against the Purchase Price for its Property as provided in Section 2.2.3.  Purchaser shall be responsible for all Assumption Lender Fees and all other fees, penalties, interest and other amounts due and owing under the Assumed Loan Documents as a result of any







Loan Assumption and Release.  As set forth in Section 4.5.3, any existing reserves, impounds and other accounts maintained in connection with the applicable Loan and required to be replaced by Purchaser, shall be released in Good Funds to Seller at the Closing.

5.4.9

Insurance.  No proration shall be made in relation to insurance premiums and insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser.

5.4.10

Employees.  All of each Seller's and each Seller's manager's on-site employees shall have their employment at the applicable Property terminated as of the Closing Date.

5.4.11

Closing Costs.  With respect to each Property, Purchaser shall pay any transfer, mortgage assumption (if applicable), sales, use, gross receipts or similar taxes, the cost of recording any instruments required to discharge any liens or encumbrances against such Property, any premiums or fees required to be paid by Purchaser with respect to the applicable Title Policy pursuant to Section 4.1, and one-half of the customary closing costs of the Escrow Agent.  Each Seller shall pay the base premium for its Title Policy to the extent required by Section 4.1, and one-half of the customary closing costs of the Escrow Agent.

5.4.12

Utility Contracts.  If any Seller has entered into an agreement for the purchase of electricity, gas or other utility service for its Property or a group of properties (including such Property) (a "Utility Contract"), or an affiliate of such Seller has entered into a Utility Contract, such Utility Contract shall be identified on the Seller Information Schedule and, as set forth on the Seller Information Schedule, either (a) Purchaser either shall assume the Utility Contract with respect to such Property, or (b) the reasonably calculated costs of the Utility Contract attributable to such Property from and after the Closing shall be paid to the applicable Seller at the Closing and such Seller shall remain responsible for payments under the Utility Contract.  

5.4.13

Possession.  Possession of each Property, subject to the Leases, Property Contracts which are not identified as Terminated Contracts during the Feasibility Period (subject to the limitations of Section 3.6), and Permitted Exceptions, shall be delivered to Purchaser at the Closing upon release from escrow of all items to be delivered by Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.3, including, without limitation, the applicable Purchase Price.  To the extent reasonably available to each Seller, originals or copies of its Leases and Property Contracts, lease files, warranties, guaranties, operating manuals, keys to the property, and such Seller's books and records relating to its Property to be conveyed by such Seller (other than proprietary information) (collectively, "Seller's Property-Related Files and Records") regarding the applicable Property shall be made available to Purchaser at such Property after the Closing.  Prior to Closing, Sellers shall be entitled to copy any of Seller's Property-Related Files and Records, and, following Closing, shall be entitled to retain such copies for Sellers' own use.  With respect to any of Seller's Related Files that are not copied pursuant to the foregoing sentence, if at any time after Closing Purchaser desires to dispose of any Seller's Property-Related Files and Records, Purchaser must first provide the applicable Seller prior written notice (the "Records Disposal Notice").  Such Seller shall have a period of 30 days after receipt of the Records Disposal Notice to enter the applicable Property (or such other location where such records are then stored) and







remove or copy those of Seller's Property-Related Files and Records that such Seller desires to retain.

5.4.14

Survival.  The provisions of this Section 5.4 shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Deed to Purchaser.

5.5

Post Closing Adjustments.  In general, and except as provided in this Contract or the Closing Documents, each Seller shall be entitled to all income, and shall pay all expenses, relating to the operation of its Property for the period prior to the Closing Date and Purchaser shall be entitled to all income, and shall pay all expenses, relating to the operation of such Property for the period commencing on and after the Closing Date.  Purchaser or a Seller may request that Purchaser and such Seller undertake to re-adjust any item on the Proration Schedule (or any item omitted therefrom) in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.4 of this Contract; provided, however, that neither party shall have any obligation to re-adjust any items for any Property (a) after the expiration of 90 days after Closing, or (b) subject to such 90-day period, unless such items exceed $5,000.00 in magnitude (either individually or in the aggregate) with respect to such Property.  The provisions of this Section 5.5 shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Deeds to Purchaser.

by Sellers with respect to current and future applicable zoning or building code requirements or the compliance of the Properties with any other laws, rules, ordinances or regulations, the financial earning capacity or expense history of the Properties, the continuation of contracts, continued occupancy levels of the Properties, or any part thereof, or the continued occupancy by tenants of any Leases or, without limiting any of the foregoing, occupancy at Closing.  Prior to Closing, each Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enforce its rights against any and all of its Property occupants, guests or tenants.  Purchaser agrees that the departure or removal, prior to Closing, of any of such guests, occupants or tenants shall not be the basis for, nor shall it give rise to, any claim on the part of Purchaser, nor shall it affect the obligations of Purchaser under this Contract in any manner whatsoever; and Purchaser shall close title and accept delivery of the applicable Deed with or without such tenants in possession and without any allowance or reduction in the applicable Purchase Price under this Contract.  Purchaser hereby releases Sellers from any and all claims and liabilities relating to the foregoing matters. The provisions of this Section 6.2 shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Deeds to Purchaser.

6.3

Survival of Seller's Representations.  Sellers and Purchaser agree that Seller's Representations shall survive Closing for a period of 9 months (the "Survival Period").  No Seller shall have liability after the Survival Period with respect to any of its Seller's Representations contained herein except to the extent that Purchaser has requested arbitration against such Seller during the Survival Period for breach of any of such Seller's Representations.  Each Seller shall be liable only for the breach of its own Seller's Representations.  Under no circumstances shall Sellers in aggregate (together with the "sellers" under the Related Contracts) be liable to Purchaser for more than $1,000,000.00 in any individual instance or in the aggregate, under this Contract and the Related Contracts, for all breaches of Seller's Representations by all "Sellers" under this Contract and the Related Contracts; provided, however, that the foregoing $1,000,000.00 cap shall reduce on a pro rata basis (based on relevant purchase prices) when and if this Contract or any of the Related Contracts is terminated with respect to one or more of the properties to be sold pursuant thereto.  For example (but not by way of limitation), if the purchase price of the terminated property is $12,000,000 and the aggregate purchase price for all of the properties under this Contract and the Related Contracts is $61,000,000, then the foregoing cap would be reduced by an amount equal to (12/61 x $1,000,000), or $196,721, to a revised cap of $803,279.  Purchaser shall not be entitled to bring any claim for a breach of Seller's Representations unless the claim for damages (either in the aggregate or as to any individual claim) by Purchaser for a Property exceeds $5,000.  In the event that a Seller breaches any representation contained in Section 6.1 and Purchaser had knowledge of such breach prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any right of recovery, and such Seller shall not have any liability in connection therewith.

6.4

Definition of Seller's Knowledge.  Any representations and warranties made "to the knowledge of such Seller" shall not be deemed to imply any duty of inquiry.  For purposes of this Contract, the term Seller's "knowledge" shall mean and refer only to actual knowledge of the Regional Property Manager of such Seller and shall not be construed to refer to the knowledge of any other partner, officer, director, agent, employee or representative of such Seller, or any affiliate of such Seller, or to impose upon such Regional Property Manager any duty to investigate the matter to which such actual knowledge or the absence thereof pertains, or to impose upon such Regional Property Manager any individual personal liability.  







6.5

Representations And Warranties Of Purchaser.  For the purpose of inducing Sellers to enter into this Contract and to consummate the sale and purchase of the Properties in accordance herewith, Purchaser represents and warrants to Sellers the following as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing Date:

6.5.3

No pending or, to the knowledge of Purchaser, threatened litigation exists which if determined adversely would restrain the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Contract or would declare illegal, invalid or non-binding any of Purchaser's obligations or covenants to Sellers.

6.5.4

Other than Seller's Representations, Purchaser has not relied on any representation or warranty made by Sellers or any representative of Sellers (including, without limitation, Broker) in connection with this Contract and the acquisition of the Properties.

6.5.5

The Broker and its affiliates do not, and will not at the Closing, have any direct or indirect legal, beneficial, economic or voting interest in Purchaser (or in an assignee of Purchaser, which pursuant to Section 13.3, acquires any Property at the Closing), nor has Purchaser or any affiliate of Purchaser granted (as of the Effective Date or the Closing Date) the Broker or any of its affiliates any right or option to acquire any direct or indirect legal, beneficial, economic or voting interest in Purchaser.

6.5.6

Purchaser is not a Prohibited Person.

6.5.7

To Purchaser's knowledge, none of its investors, affiliates or brokers or other agents (if any), acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with this Contract is a Prohibited Person.

The funds or other assets Purchaser will transfer to Seller under to this Contract are not the property of, or are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by a Prohibited Person.







6.5.9

The provisions of this Section 6.5 shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Deed to Purchaser.

Broker Commission.  If the Closing occurs, each Seller agrees to pay Broker a commission according to the terms of a separate contract.  Broker shall not be deemed a party or third party beneficiary of this Contract.

9.3

Broker Signature Page.  As a condition to each Seller's obligation to pay the commission pursuant to Section 9.2, Broker shall execute the signature page for Broker attached hereto solely for purposes of confirming the matters set forth therein; provided, however, that (a) Broker's signature hereon shall not be a prerequisite to the binding nature of this Contract on Purchaser and Sellers, and the same shall become fully effective upon execution by Purchaser and Sellers, and (b) the signature of Broker will not be necessary to amend any provision of this Contract.

ARTICLE X
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

10.1

Purchaser Default.  If Purchaser defaults in its obligations hereunder to (a) deliver the Initial Deposit or Additional Deposit (or any other deposit or payment required of Purchaser hereunder), (b) deliver to Sellers the deliveries specified under Section 5.3 on the date required thereunder, or (c) deliver the Purchase Price for each Property at the time required by Section 2.2.4 and close on the purchase of the Properties on the Closing Date, then, immediately and without notice or cure, Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Applicable Share of the Deposit to each Seller, and neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the Properties.  If, Purchaser defaults in any of its other representations, warranties or obligations under this Contract, and such default continues for more than 10 days after written notice from Seller's Representative, then Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Applicable Share of the Deposit to each Seller, and neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the Property; provided, however, if the Purchaser default is not capable of being cured, does not preclude Purchaser from Closing (and Purchaser is ready, willing and able to timely Close), and does not materially adversely affect Seller or the ownership, operation or maintenance of any Property (or create any liability or Loss for any Seller or any Property), then such default shall not permit Sellers to retain the Deposit if they terminate this Contract because of such default.  Deposit is







liquidated damages and recourse to the Deposit is, except for Purchaser's indemnity and confidentiality obligations hereunder, Sellers' sole and exclusive remedy for Purchaser's failure to perform its obligation to purchase the Properties or breach of a representation or warranty.  Sellers expressly waive the remedies of specific performance and additional damages for such default by Purchaser.  SELLERS AND PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLERS' DAMAGES WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE, AND THAT THE DEPOSIT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLERS' DAMAGES RESULTING FROM A DEFAULT BY PURCHASER IN ITS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTY.  SELLERS AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 10.1 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES LIQUIDATE THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE SELLERS, AND SHALL BE SELLERS' EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST PURCHASER, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY PURCHASER OF ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS CONTRACT, OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO PURCHASER'S INDEMNITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

10.2

Seller Default.  If a Seller, prior to the Closing, defaults in its representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations under this Contract, including to sell its Property as required by this Contract and such default continues for more than 10 days after written notice from Purchaser, then, at Purchaser's election and as Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy, Purchaser may either (a) seek specific performance of the defaulting Seller's obligations to deliver its Deed pursuant to this Contract (but not damages), or (b) give a Termination Notice to Seller's Representative of Purchaser's decision to terminate this Contract for the Property for which there was such a default and receive a return of the Applicable Share of the Deposit from the Escrow Agent (subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party Reports and Required Return Documents provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Materials Security Deposit, or, if the Applicable Share of the Deposit is less than the Materials Security Deposit, as a condition to the return of the Applicable Share of the Deposit).  If Seller's Representative receives a Termination Notice, Seller's Representative may, within 3 Business Days after receiving the Termination Notice, give Purchaser a Reinstatement Notice that Purchaser either must purchase all of the Properties or terminate this Contract for all of the Properties.  (If Seller's Representative fails to respond to the Termination Notice (or to give a Reinstatement Notice) Sellers shall be deemed to have agreed to sell all Properties except the Property for which the Termination Notice was given.)  Purchaser shall, within 3 Business Days after receiving a Reinstatement Notice, give Seller's Representative notice of whether it desires to purchase all of the Properties or terminate this Contract in its entirety; Purchaser's failure to provide Seller's Representative notice that it desires to terminate this Contract in its entirety shall be deemed Purchaser's decision to purchase all of the Properties.  If this Contract is terminated in whole or in part, Purchaser shall recover the Applicable Share of Deposit for the terminated Properties (subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party Reports and Required Return Documents provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Materials Security Deposit, or, if the Applicable Share of the Deposit is less than the Materials Security Deposit, as a condition to the return of the Applicable Share of the Deposit) and Purchaser may recover, as its sole recoverable damages (but without limiting its right to receive a refund of the Applicable Share of the Deposit), its direct and actual out-of-pocket expenses and costs (documented by paid invoices to third parties) in connection with the Properties for which this Contract has been terminated, which damages shall not exceed in aggregate $200,000 under







this Contract and the Related Contracts, in the aggregate; provided, however, that the foregoing $200,000 cap shall reduce on a pro rata basis (in accordance with relative purchase prices) when and if this Contract or any of the Related Contracts is terminated with respect to one or more of the properties to be sold pursuant thereto.  For example (but not by way of limitation), if the purchase price of the terminated property is $12,000,000 and the aggregate purchase price for all of the properties under this Contract and the Related Contracts is $61,000,000, then the foregoing cap would be reduced by an amount equal to (12/61 x $200,000), or $39,344, to a revised cap of $160,656. If this Contract is terminated in whole or in part, Purchaser agrees that it shall promptly deliver to each Seller an assignment of all of Purchaser's right, title and interest in and to (together with possession of) all plans, studies, surveys, reports, and other materials (other than Purchaser's attorney's work product) paid for with the out-of-pocket expenses reimbursed by Sellers pursuant to the foregoing sentence.  SELLERS AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 10.2 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE PURCHASER AND THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO PURCHASER, AND SHALL BE PURCHASER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST SELLERS, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY ANY SELLER OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, OR COVENANTS OR ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS CONTRACT.  UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MAY PURCHASER SEEK OR BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, SPECULATIVE OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, ALL OF WHICH PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES, FROM SELLERS FOR ANY BREACH BY A SELLER, OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR COVENANTS OR ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS CONTRACT.  PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO FILE ANY LIS PENDENS OR ANY LIEN AGAINST ANY PROPERTY UNLESS AND UNTIL IT HAS IRREVOCABLY ELECTED TO SEEK SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF THIS CONTRACT AND HAS FILED AN ACTION SEEKING SUCH REMEDY.

ARTICLE XI
RISK OF LOSS OR CASUALTY

11.1

Major Damage.  If a Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Closing, and the cost of repair is more than $300,000, then the applicable Seller shall have no obligation to repair such damage or destruction and shall notify Purchaser in writing of such damage or destruction (the "Damage Notice").  Within 10 days after Purchaser's receipt of the Damage Notice, Purchaser may elect at its option to give a Termination Notice for the damaged Property to Seller's Representative.  If Seller's Representative receives a Termination Notice, Seller's Representative may, within 3 Business Days after receiving the Termination Notice, give Purchaser a Reinstatement Notice that Purchaser either must purchase all of the Properties or terminate this Contract for all of the Properties.  Purchaser shall, within 3 Business Days after receiving a Reinstatement Notice, give Seller's Representative notice of whether it desires to purchase all of the Properties or terminate this Contract in its entirety; Purchaser's failure to provide Seller's Representative notice that it desires to terminate this Contract in its entirety shall be deemed Purchaser's decision to purchase all of the Properties.  If this Contract is not terminated, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of this Contract for the full Purchase Price for the damaged Property notwithstanding any such damage or destruction and Purchaser shall receive all insurance proceeds pertaining thereto (plus a credit







against the applicable Purchase Price in the amount of any deductible payable by the applicable Seller in connection therewith) at Closing.  If this Contract is terminated in whole or in part from such damage, Purchaser shall recover the Applicable Share of the Deposit for the terminated Properties (subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party Reports and Required Return Documents provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Materials Security Deposit, or, if the Applicable Share of the Deposit is less than the Materials Security Deposit, as a condition to the return of the Applicable Share of the Deposit).

11.2

Minor Damage.  If a Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing, and the cost of repair is less than $300,000, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of this Contract, notwithstanding the damage or destruction; provided, however, the applicable Seller shall make such repairs to the extent of any recovery from insurance carried on such Property if they can be reasonably effected before the Closing.  Subject to Section 11.3, if the applicable Seller is unable to effect such repairs, then Purchaser shall receive all insurance proceeds pertaining thereto (plus a credit against the Purchase Price for the damaged Property in the amount of any uninsured loss (but only to the extent not repaired prior to Closing) or deductible payable by the applicable Seller in connection therewith) at Closing.

11.3

Repairs.  To the extent that a Seller elects to commence any repair, replacement or restoration of its damaged Property prior to Closing, then such Seller shall be entitled to receive and apply available insurance proceeds to any portion of such repair, replacement or restoration completed or installed prior to Closing, with Purchaser being responsible for completion of such repair, replacement or restoration after Closing from the balance of any available insurance proceeds.  The provisions of this Section 11.3 shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Deeds to Purchaser.

ARTICLE XII
EMINENT DOMAIN

12.1

Eminent Domain.  If, at the time of Closing, any material part of a Property is (or previously has been) acquired, or is about to be acquired, by any governmental agency by the powers of eminent domain or transfer in lieu thereof (or in the event that at such time there is any notice of any such acquisition or intent to acquire by any such governmental agency), Purchaser shall have the right, at Purchaser's option, to give a Termination Notice to Seller's Representative for the Property for which there was such a condemnation.  If Seller's Representative receives a Termination Notice, Seller's Representative may, within 3 Business Days after receiving the Termination Notice, give Purchaser a Reinstatement Notice that Purchaser either must purchase all of the Properties or terminate this Contract for all of the Properties.  Purchaser shall, within 3 Business Days after receiving a Reinstatement Notice, give Seller's Representative written notice of whether it desires to purchase all of the Properties or terminate this Contract in its entirety; Purchaser's failure to provide Seller's Representative with written notice that it desires to terminate this Contract in its entirety shall be deemed Purchaser's decision to purchase all of the Properties.  If this Contract is not terminated, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of this Contract for the full Purchase Price for the affected Property and Purchaser shall receive the full benefit of any condemnation award.  It is expressly agreed between the parties hereto that this section shall in no way apply to customary dedications for public purposes which







may be necessary for the development of a Property.  If this Contract is terminated in whole or in part from such condemnation, Purchaser shall recover the Applicable Share of the Deposit for the terminated Properties (subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party Reports and Required Return Documents provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Materials Security Deposit, or, if the Applicable Share of the Deposit is less than the Materials Security Deposit, as a condition to the return of the Applicable Share of the Deposit).

13.18

Time Periods.  Should the last day of a time period fall on a weekend or legal holiday, the next Business Day thereafter shall be considered the end of the time period.

13.19

1031 Exchange.  Sellers and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the purchase and sale of each Property may be part of a tax-free exchange under Section 1031 of the Code for either Purchaser or a Seller.  Each party hereby agrees to take all reasonable steps on or before the Closing Date to facilitate such exchange if requested by the other party, provided that (a) no party making such accommodation shall be required to acquire any substitute property, (b) such exchange shall not affect the representations, warranties, liabilities and obligations of the parties to each other under this Contract, (c) no party making such accommodation shall incur any additional cost, expense or liability in connection with such exchange (other than expenses of reviewing and executing documents required in connection with such exchange), and (d) no dates in this Contract will be extended as a result thereof.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, if a Seller so elects to close the transfer of a Property as an exchange, then (i) such Seller, at its sole option, may delegate its obligations to transfer a Property under this Contract, and may assign its rights to receive the Purchase Price from Purchaser, to a deferred exchange intermediary (an "Intermediary") or to an exchange accommodation titleholder, as the case may be; (ii) such delegation and assignment shall in no way reduce, modify or otherwise affect the obligations of such Seller pursuant to this Contract; (iii) such Seller shall remain fully liable for its obligations under this Contract as if such delegation and assignment shall not have taken place; (iv) Intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder, as the case may be, shall have no liability to Purchaser; and (v) the closing of the transfer of the Property to Purchaser shall be undertaken by direct deed from such Seller (or, if applicable, from other affiliates of such Seller whom such Seller will cause to execute such deeds) to Purchaser or to exchange accommodation titleholder, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, if Purchaser so elects to close the acquisition of a Property as an exchange, then (i) Purchaser, at its sole option, may delegate its obligations to acquire such Property under this Contract, and may assign its rights to receive the Property from such Seller, to an Intermediary or to an exchange accommodation titleholder, as the case may be; (ii) such delegation and assignment shall in no way reduce, modify or otherwise affect the obligations of Purchaser pursuant to this Contract; (iii) Purchaser shall remain fully liable for its obligations under this Contract as if such delegation and assignment shall not have taken place; (iv) Intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder, as the case may be, shall have no liability to such Seller; and (v) the closing of the acquisition of such Property by Purchaser or the exchange accommodation titleholder, as the case may be, shall be undertaken by direct deed from the applicable Seller (or, if applicable, from other affiliates of such Seller whom such Seller will cause to execute such deeds) to Purchaser (or to exchange accommodation titleholder, as the case may be).

13.20

No Personal Liability of Officers, Trustees or Directors of Seller's Partners.  Purchaser agrees that none of any Seller's Indemnified Parties (except for the Seller entities themselves) shall have any personal liability under this Contract or any document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Contract.







13.21

No Exclusive Negotiations.  Sellers shall have the right, at all times prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period, to enter into discussions, negotiations, or any other communications concerning or related to the sale of any Property with any third-party.

13.22

ADA Disclosure.  Purchaser acknowledges that the Properties may be subject to the federal Americans With Disabilities Act (the "ADA") and the federal Fair Housing Act (the "FHA").  The ADA requires, among other matters, that tenants and/or owners of "public accommodations" remove barriers in order to make a property accessible to disabled persons and provide auxiliary aids and services for hearing, vision or speech impaired persons.  Sellers make no warranty, representation or guarantee of any type or kind with respect to any Property's compliance with the ADA or the FHA (or any similar state or local law), and Sellers expressly disclaim any such representation.

13.23

No Recording.  Purchaser shall not cause or allow this Contract or any contract or other document related hereto, nor any memorandum or other evidence hereof, to be recorded or become a public record without the prior written consent of Seller's Representative, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of Seller's Representative.  If the Purchaser records this Contract or any other memorandum or evidence thereof, Purchaser shall be in default of its obligations under this Contract.  Purchaser hereby appoints the Seller's Representative as Purchaser's attorney-in-fact to prepare and record any documents necessary to effect the nullification and release of the contract or other memorandum or evidence thereof from the public records.  This appointment shall be coupled with an interest and irrevocable.

13.24

Relationship of Parties.  Purchaser and Sellers acknowledge and agree that the relationship established between the parties pursuant to this Contract is only that of a seller and a purchaser of property.  Neither Purchaser nor Sellers is, nor shall either hold itself out to be, the agent, employee, joint venturer or partner of the other party.

13.25

Dispute Resolution.  Any controversy, dispute, or claim of any nature arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, enforcement or breach of this Contract (and any closing document executed in connection herewith), including any claim based on contract, tort or statute, shall be resolved at the written request of any party to this Contract by binding arbitration.  The arbitration shall be administered in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.  Any matter to be settled by arbitration shall be submitted to the American Arbitration Association in the state of Indiana.  The parties shall attempt to designate one arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association.  If they are unable to do so within 30 days after written demand therefor, then the American Arbitration Association shall designate an arbitrator.  The arbitration shall be final and binding, and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The arbitrator shall award attorneys' fees (including those of in-house counsel) and costs to the prevailing party and charge the cost of arbitration to the party which is not the prevailing party.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 13.25 shall not prevent Purchaser or Sellers from seeking and obtaining equitable relief on a temporary or permanent basis, including, without limitation, a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or permanent injunction or similar equitable relief, from a court of competent jurisdiction located in the state in which the Property is located (to which all parties hereto consent to venue and jurisdiction) by instituting a legal action or other court proceeding in order to protect or enforce the rights of such party under this Contract or to







prevent irreparable harm and injury.  The court's jurisdiction over any such equitable matter, however, shall be expressly limited only to the temporary, preliminary, or permanent equitable relief sought; all other claims initiated under this Contract between the parties hereto shall be determined through final and binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 13.25.

13.26

AIMCO Marks.  Purchaser agrees that Sellers, the Property Manager or AIMCO, or their respective affiliates, are the sole owners of all right, title and interest in and to the AIMCO Marks (or have the right to use such AIMCO Marks pursuant to license agreements with third parties) and that no right, title or interest in or to the AIMCO Marks is granted, transferred, assigned or conveyed as a result of this Contract.  Purchaser further agrees that Purchaser will not use the AIMCO Marks for any purpose.

13.27

Non-Solicitation of Employees.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, without the express written consent of Seller's Representative, neither Purchaser nor any of Purchaser's employees, affiliates or agents shall solicit any of Seller's employees or any employees located at any Property (or any of any Seller's affiliates' employees located at any property owned by such affiliates) for potential employment.

13.28

Survival.  Except for (a) all of the provisions of this Article 13 (other than Section 13.19 and 13.21), and (b) any provision of this Contract which expressly states that it shall so survive, and (c) any payment obligation of Purchaser under this Contract (the foregoing (a), (b) and (c) referred to herein as the "Survival Provisions"), none of the terms and provisions of this Contract shall survive the termination of this Contract, and, if the Contract is not so terminated, all of the terms and provisions of this Contract (other than the Survival Provisions) shall be merged into the Closing documents and shall not survive Closing.

13.29

Multiple Purchasers.  As used in this Contract, the term "Purchaser" means all entities acquiring any interest in any Properties at the Closing, including, without limitation, any assignee(s) of the original Purchaser pursuant to Section 13.3 of this Contract.  In the event that "Purchaser" has any obligations or makes any covenants, representations or warranties under this Contract, the same shall be made jointly and severally by all entities being a Purchaser hereunder.  In the event that a Seller receives notice from any entity being a Purchaser hereunder, the same shall be deemed to constitute notice from all entities being a Purchaser hereunder.  In the event that any entity being a Purchaser hereunder takes any action, breaches any obligation or otherwise acts pursuant to the terms of this Contract, the same shall be deemed to be the action of the other entity(ies) being a Purchaser hereunder and the action of "Purchaser" under this Contract.  In the event that a Seller or Seller's Representative is required to give notice or take action with respect to Purchaser under this Contract, notice to any entity being a Purchaser hereunder or action with respect to any entity being a Purchaser hereunder shall be a notice or action to all entities being a Purchaser hereunder.  In the event that any entity being a Purchaser hereunder desires to bring an action or arbitration against a Seller, such action must be joined by all entities being a Purchaser hereunder in order to be effective.  In the event that there is any agreement by a Seller to pay any amount pursuant to this Contract to Purchaser under any circumstance, that amount shall be deemed the maximum aggregate amount to be paid to all parties being a Purchaser hereunder and not an amount that can be paid to each party being a Purchaser hereunder.  In the event that a Seller is required to return the Initial Deposit, Additional Deposit or other amount to Purchaser, such Seller shall return the same to any entity







being a Purchaser hereunder and, upon such return, shall have no further liability to any other entity being a Purchaser hereunder for such amount.  The foregoing provisions also shall apply to any documents, including, without limitation, the General Assignment and Assumption and the Assignment and Assumption of Leases and Security Deposits, executed in connection with this Contract and the transaction(s) contemplated hereby.  

13.30

Sellers' Several Obligations.  Purchaser agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract to the contrary, the representations, warranties, obligations, and covenants of each Seller are individual and several, and not joint and several, and that each Seller is responsible and liable only for its own Property and its own representations, warranties, obligations, and covenants.  Purchaser agrees that it shall look solely to the applicable Seller for any amount due hereunder or, obligation owed hereunder, and further waives any and all claims against any other party or Property for payment or performance of the same, including, without limitation, any other Seller or AIMCO, or any partner, member, manager, shareholder, director, officer, employee, affiliate, representative or agent of any Seller or AIMCO.

13.31

Obligation to Close on all Properties.  Except as expressly set forth in this Contract, Purchaser's obligation to purchase the Properties is not severable and Purchaser must purchase all of the Properties.  Similarly, except as expressly stated in this Contract, Sellers' obligations to sell the Properties are not severable and Sellers must sell all of the Properties to Purchaser.  Further, notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the contrary, and unless Sellers agree in their sole and absolute discretion, Purchaser may not close on the acquisition of any of the Properties unless Purchaser simultaneously, or prior to such Closing Date, has acquired both properties that are the subject to the Related Contracts (and, if Sellers elect in their sole discretion, then the Closing Date hereunder will be extended to accommodate a simultaneous closing with the properties that are the subject of one or more of the Related Contracts).  Without limiting the foregoing, if Purchaser has the right to terminate either of the Related Contracts, and does so terminate one or both Related Contracts (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 3.2 or 4.3 thereof), Sellers shall have the option (but not the obligation) to terminate this Contract in its entirety.  In addition, if the seller under either of the Related Contracts terminates such Related Contract for any reason, then Sellers may (but are not obligated to) terminate this Contract within 10 days after the termination of the Related Contract.  A default by the Purchaser under either Related Contract is, at the option of the Sellers under this Contract, a default by the Purchaser hereunder.

13.32

Non-Refundable Purchaser Lender Fees.  If this Contract is terminated (in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof) in its entirety because of either (a) a Seller default, or (b) the failure of a Seller to obtain the consents required by Section 8.2.4(a), then, in addition to any other payments hereunder, Sellers shall pay Purchaser its actual and documented fees which Purchaser has paid to third-party prospective lenders (in conjunction with potential financing associated with Purchaser's acquisition of the Properties) for application fees, rate-lock fees, and third-party reports in an amount not to exceed (in aggregate for all Sellers) $32,000.







ARTICLE XIV
LEAD–BASED PAINT DISCLOSURE

14.1

Disclosure.  Sellers and Purchaser hereby acknowledge delivery of the Lead Based Paint Disclosure attached as Exhibit H hereto.  The provisions of this Section 14.1 shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Deeds to Purchaser.

14.2

Intentionally Omitted.

14.3

Consent Agreement – Pre-1978 Certified.   The provisions of this Section 14.3 apply to those Properties identified on the Seller Information Schedule as "Pre-1978-Certified."  Testing has been performed at each Property identified as "Pre-1978, Certified" with respect to lead-based paint.  The "LPB Consultant" identified on the Seller Information Schedule prepared the Report with respect to the Property identified therein.  A copy of each report will be provided to Purchaser with the Materials.  Each Report certifies the respective Property as lead based paint free.  By execution hereof, Purchaser acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Reports and the Lead-Based Paint Disclosure Statements described on the Seller Information Schedule, and acknowledges receipt of the Consent Agreement.  Because the applicable Property has been certified as lead based paint free, the applicable Seller is not required under the Consent Agreement to remediate or abate any lead-based paint condition at its Property prior to the Closing.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (1) after Closing, Purchaser and the applicable Property shall be subject to the Consent Agreement and the provisions contained herein related thereto and (2) Purchaser shall not be deemed to be a third party beneficiary to the Consent Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 14.3 shall survive the termination of this Contract, and if not so terminated, the Closing and delivery of the Deed to Purchaser.

14.4

Consent Agreement – Pre-1978-LBP, But No LBP Hazards  The provisions of this Section 14.4 apply to those Properties identified on the Seller Information Schedule as "Pre-1978, Lead-Based Paint Present, No Lead-Based Hazard."  Testing has been performed at the applicable Property with respect to lead-based paint.  The "LBP Consultant" identified on the Seller Information Schedule prepared the Report with respect to the Property identified therein.  A copy of the Report with respect to the Property will provided to Purchaser with the Materials.  The Report certifies the applicable Property as free of (a) lead based hazards, (b) dust lead hazards and (c) soil lead hazards.  By execution hereof, Purchaser acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Reports and the Lead-Based Paint Disclosure Statements described on the Seller Information Schedule, and acknowledges receipt of the Consent Agreement.  Because the applicable Property has been certified as free of (x) lead based hazards, (y) dust lead hazards and (z) soil lead hazards, the applicable Seller is not required under the Consent Agreement to remediate or abate any lead-based paint condition at such Property prior to the Closing.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (1) after Closing, the Purchaser and the applicable Property shall be subject to the Consent Agreement and the provisions contained herein related thereto and (2) Purchaser shall not be deemed to be a third party beneficiary to the Consent Agreement.  The provisions of this Section 14.4 shall survive the termination of this Contract, and if not so terminated, the Closing and delivery of the Deeds to Purchaser.
