Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Consolidated Capital Growth Fund, a California limited partnership (the “Partnership” or the “Seller”), owns The Lakes Apartments (“The Lakes”), a 600-unit apartment complex located in Raleigh, North Carolina.  On October 28, 2008 (the “Effective Date”), the Seller entered into a Purchase and Sale Contract (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a third party, The Embassy Group LLC, a New York limited liability company, (the “Purchaser”), to sell The Lakes to the Purchaser for a total sales price of $26,000,000.  On October 28, 2008, the Purchaser also entered into a purchase and sale contract (the “Related Agreement”) with an entity (the “Related Seller”) affiliated with AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Partnership. The Partnership, the Related Seller and the Purchaser intend to close under the Purchase Agreement and the Related Agreement simultaneously. If either the Purchase Agreement or the Related Agreement are terminated or cancelled, the other party has the right, but not the obligation, to terminate the Purchase Agreement or Related Agreement, respectively.

 

The following is a summary of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, which summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as an exhibit.

 

PURCHASE PRICE.  The total purchase price is $26,000,000, subject to certain prorations and adjustments at the closing.  The Purchaser agreed to deliver an initial deposit of $260,000 to LandAmerica Commercial Services (the “Escrow Agent”) within two business days following the Effective Date.

 

FEASIBILITY PERIOD.  The feasibility periods ends thirty days after the Effective Date.  On or before the day that the feasibility period expires, the Purchaser is required to deliver to the Escrow Agent an additional deposit of $260,000.  If the Purchaser fails to notify the Seller in writing of its intent to terminate the contract prior to the end of the feasibility period, the deposits will become non-refundable.

 

CLOSING.   The expected closing date of the transaction is on or before December 12, 2008. The Purchaser has the right to extend the closing to January 6, 2009 by delivering written notice to the Seller no later than 7 days prior to the closing. The closing is also subject to customary closing conditions and deliveries.

 

COSTS AND FEES.  The Purchaser will pay premiums or fees required to be paid with respect to the title policy and one-half of the customary closing costs of the Escrow Agent. The Seller will pay transfer, sales, use, gross receipts or similar taxes, recording costs in accordance with custom and practice, the base premium for the title policy and one-half of the customary closing costs of the Escrow Agent. 

 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.  The Seller and the Purchaser each made limited representations and warranties to the other.

 

RISK OF LOSS. The risk of loss or damage to The Lakes by reason of any insured or uninsured casualty during the period through and including the closing date equal to or less than $250,000 will be borne by the Seller. The Seller must maintain, in full force and effect until the Closing Date, all existing insurance coverage on The Lakes.

 

ASSIGNMENT.  With the exception of a permitted assignment to an affiliate of the Purchaser, the Purchase Agreement is not assignable by the Purchaser without first obtaining the prior written approval of the Seller.

 

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.  If the Purchaser defaults on its obligations to deliver when required any required deposits, the purchase price or any other specified deliveries, then the Purchaser will forfeit its deposits to the Seller, and neither party will be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale.  The Seller expressly waives the remedies of specific performance and additional damages for any such defaults by the Purchaser.

 

If the Seller, prior to the closing, defaults in its representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations, the Purchaser has the option of (i) terminating the Purchase Agreement, receiving a return of its deposits, and recovering, as its sole recoverable damages its documented direct and actual out-of-pocket expenses and costs up to $50,000, or (ii) seeking specific performance of the Seller’s obligation to deliver the deed pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
