Item 1.01   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Angeles Income Properties, Ltd. II, a California limited partnership (the “Partnership” or “Registrant”), owns Deer Creek Apartments (the “Property”), a 288-unit apartment complex located in Plainsboro, New Jersey.

 

On August 5, 2009 (the “Effective Date”), the Partnership entered into a Purchase and Sale Contract (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a third party, Lighthouse Property Investments, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (the “Purchaser”), to sell the Property to the Purchaser for a total sales price of approximately $27,800,000.

 

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 as an exhibit.

 

PURCHASE PRICE.  The total purchase price is approximately $27,800,000 subject to certain prorations and adjustments at the closing.  The Purchaser agreed to deliver an initial deposit of $250,000 to First American Title Insurance Company (the “Escrow Agent”) within one business day after the Effective Date.

 

FEASIBILITY PERIOD.  The feasibility period ends on September 4, 2009.  Within two business days after the feasibility period expires, the Purchaser is required to deliver to the Escrow Agent an additional deposit of $250,000.  If the Purchaser fails to notify the Partnership in writing of its intent to terminate the contract prior to the end of the feasibility period, the deposits will become non-refundable.

 

LOAN ASSUMPTION AND APPROVAL PERIODThe parties agreed that the Purchaser would assume at closing the Partnership’s obligations with respect to the three mortgages encumbering the Property. The Purchaser is responsible for submitting the loan assumption application within 15 days after the Effective Date. The parties also agreed that if, as a condition to the issuance of the loan assumption and release, any one or more of the lenders requires a partial prepayment of the principal portion of one or more of the loans, the Purchaser shall notify the Partnership of the principal paydown amount and the aggregate principal balance of the loans that the lender is willing to assign at closing. If the reduced principal amount is equal to or greater than $20,625,000, then at closing, the Purchaser agreed to partially prepay the loans in the principal paydown amount. If the reduced principal amount is less than $20,625,000, the Partnership agreed to notify the Purchaser within ten days of receiving notice regarding whether the Partnership will agree to pay the portion of the principal paydown amount necessary to reduce the aggregate principal balance of the loans from $20,625,000 to the required amount.  If the Partnership agrees to pay such amount, then at closing, the Partnership will grant the Purchaser a credit for the amount.  If the Partnership does not agree to pay any such amount, the Purchaser may either (a) agree to pay the entire principal paydown amount or (b) terminate this Purchase Agreement.  If the Purchaser agrees to accept the assignment of the loans at the reduced principal amount, then at closing the Purchaser will pay the entire principal paydown amount required by the lenders.  If the Purchaser elects to terminate the Purchase Agreement, the deposits will be returned to the Purchaser, the Purchaser will be reimbursed for its direct and actual out-of-pocket expenses and costs in connection with the transaction (not to exceed $50,000 in aggregate) and the Purchase Agreement will be of no further force or effect.

If a prepayment penalty associated with a paydown is equal to or less than $200,000, then at closing the Purchaser will pay the first $100,000 of the prepayment penalty and the Partnership will pay the next $100,000. If the Purchaser does not obtain the prepayment penalty amount in connection with the loan assumption and release, the Partnership will provide the Purchaser with the Partnership’s good faith estimate of the prepayment penalty. If the prepayment penalty exceeds $200,000, then the Partnership will notify the Purchaser as to whether or not the Partnership agrees to pay that portion of the prepayment penalty that exceeds $200,000.  If the Partnership agrees to pay the portion of the prepayment penalty that exceeds $200,000, at closing the Partnership will pay the portion of the prepayment penalty that exceeds $200,000.  If the Partnership does not agree to pay the portion of the prepayment penalty that exceeds $200,000, the Purchaser will deliver a written notice to the Partnership pursuant to which the Purchaser will either (a) agree to pay that portion of the prepayment penalty that exceeds $200,000 or (b) terminate the Purchase Agreement.   If the Purchaser agrees to pay the portion of the prepayment penalty that exceeds $200,000, at closing the Purchaser will pay the portion of the prepayment penalty that exceeds $200,000. If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Purchase Agreement, then the deposit will be promptly returned to the Purchaser and this Purchase Agreement will be of no further force or effect.

 

CLOSING.  The expected closing date of the transaction is the earlier of 30 days after the Purchaser obtains lender approval or October 19, 2009.  If the Purchaser obtains lender approval on or after September 21, 2009 but before October 19, 2009, the closing will be extended to 30 days after the loan approval is received. The Purchaser has the right to one 30-day extension of the closing date by delivering written notice to the Partnership no later than five days prior to the closing date together with an additional deposit of $136,250 to the Escrow Agent. The Partnership has the right to extend the closing date an additional 30 days after the Purchaser obtains lender approval or, no later than November 18, 2009, in order to complete documentation of all documents necessary to accomplish the loan assumption and release. The closing is also subject to customary closing conditions and deliveries.

 

COSTS AND FEES.  The Partnership agreed to pay any transfer taxes (except any mansion taxes), the cost of recording any instruments required to discharge any liens or encumbrances against the Property, the cost to omit title exceptions which the Partnership is required to omit or cure, and the base premium related to the title policy. The Purchaser agreed to pay any recording fees and taxes associated with new debt obtained by the Purchaser in connection with the sale, the balance of costs related to the title policy and any mansion taxes.  The Partnership and the Purchaser agreed to share equally any escrow fees.

 

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

 

RISK OF LOSS. The risk of loss or damage to the Property by reason of any insured or uninsured casualty during the period through and including the closing date in excess of $1,000,000 is not the obligation of the Partnership. The Partnership agreed to notify the Purchaser in writing of such damage or destruction, and Purchaser may within 10 days notify the Partnership in writing of its election to terminate the contract.  With respect to any loss or damage equal to or less than $1,000,000, the Partnership agreed to either complete repairs if possible prior to the closing date or assign any insurance proceeds to the Purchaser.  The Partnership agreed to maintain in full force and effect until the closing date all existing insurance coverage on the Property.

 

ASSIGNMENT.  With the exception of an 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 Partnership.

 

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, the Purchaser will forfeit its deposits to the Partnership and neither party will be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale.  The Partnership expressly waived the remedies of specific performance and additional damages for any such defaults by the Purchaser.

 

If the Partnership, 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) subject to certain conditions, seeking specific performance of the Partnership’s obligation to deliver the deed pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

The agreements included as exhibits to this Form 8-K contain representations and warranties by each of the parties to the applicable agreement. These representations and warranties have been made solely for the benefit of the other parties to the applicable agreement and:

DEFINED TERMS

  Seller agrees to sell and convey the Property to Purchaser and Purchaser agrees to purchase the Property from Seller, all in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Contract.

2.2       Purchase Price and Deposit.

  The total purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Property shall be an amount equal to Twenty-Seven Million Eight Hundred Ten Thousand Four Hundred Fifteen and 00/100 ($27,810,415.00) Dollars, payable by Purchaser, as follows:

2.2.1    Within one (1) Business Day after the execution of this Contract, Purchaser shall deliver to First American Title Insurance Company of New York, 633 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10017, Attention: Linda J. Isaacson, Telephone: 212-850-0664, Facsimile: 212-331-1467, lisaacson@firstam.com (“Escrow Agent”) an initial deposit (the “Initial Deposit”) of $250,000 by wire transfer of immediately available funds (“Good Funds”).

2.2.2    Within two (2) Business Days after the expiration of the Feasibility Period, Purchaser shall deliver to Escrow Agent an additional deposit (the “Additional Deposit”) of $250,000 by wire transfer of Good Funds.

2.2.3    At the Closing, subject to the occurrence of the Loan Assumption and Release, Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of the outstanding principal balance of the Note, together with all accrued but unpaid interest (if any) thereon, as of the Closing Date (the “Loan Balance”).

2.2.4    The balance of the Purchase Price for the Property shall be paid to and received by Escrow Agent by wire transfer of Good Funds no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Closing Date.

2.3       Escrow Provisions Regarding Deposit.

2.3.1    Escrow Agent shall hold the Deposit and make delivery of the Deposit to the party entitled thereto under the terms of this Contract.  Escrow Agent shall invest the Deposit in such short-term, high-grade securities, interest-bearing bank accounts, money market funds or accounts, bank certificates of deposit or bank repurchase contracts as Escrow Agent, in its discretion, deems suitable, and all interest and income thereon shall become part of the Deposit and shall be remitted to the party entitled to the Deposit pursuant to this Contract.

2.3.2    Escrow Agent shall hold the Deposit until the earlier occurrence of (i) the Closing Date, at which time the Deposit shall be applied against the Purchase Price, or released to Seller pursuant to Section 10.1, or (ii) the date on which Escrow Agent shall be authorized to disburse the Deposit as set forth in Section 2.3.3.  The tax identification numbers of the parties shall be furnished to Escrow Agent upon request.

2.3.3    If prior to the Closing Date either party makes a written demand upon Escrow Agent for payment of the Deposit, Escrow Agent shall give written notice to the other party of such demand.  If Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection from the other party to the proposed payment within 5 Business Days after the giving of such notice, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make such payment.  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 deliver the Deposit and interest thereon, if any, with a court of competent jurisdiction in the state in which the Property is located.  Escrow Agent shall give written notice of such deposit to Seller and Purchaser.  Upon such deposit, Escrow Agent shall be relieved and discharged of all further obligations and responsibilities hereunder.  Any return of the Deposit to Purchaser provided for in this Contract shall be subject to Purchaser’s obligations set forth in Section 3.5.2.

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 either 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.  Seller 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.  Escrow Agent shall execute the signature page for Escrow Agent attached hereto which shall confirm Escrow Agent’s agreement to comply with the terms of Seller’s closing instruction letter delivered at Closing and the provisions of 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, Seller, 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.

ARTICLE III
FEASIBILITY PERIOD

3.1       Feasibility Period.

  Subject to the terms of Sections 3.3 and 3.4 and the rights of Tenants under the Leases, from the Effective Date to and including September 4, 2009 (the “Feasibility Period”), Purchaser, and its agents, contractors, engineers, surveyors, attorneys, and employees (collectively, “Consultants”) shall, at no cost or expense to Seller, have the right from time to time to enter onto the Property to conduct and make any and all customary studies, tests, examinations, inquiries, inspections and investigations of or concerning the Property, review the Materials and otherwise confirm any and all matters which Purchaser may reasonably desire to confirm with respect to the Property and Purchaser’s intended use thereof (collectively, the “Inspections”).

3.4.2    Notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be permitted to perform any invasive tests on the Property without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole discretion.  Further, Seller shall have the right, without limitation, to disapprove any and all entries, surveys, tests (including, without limitation, a Phase II environmental study of the Property), investigations and other matters that in Seller’s reasonable judgment could result in any injury to the Property or breach of any contract, or expose Seller to any Losses or violation of applicable law, or otherwise adversely affect the Property or Seller’s interest therein.  Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to minimize disruption to Tenants in connection with Purchaser’s or its Consultants’ activities pursuant to this Section.  No consent by Seller to any such activity shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by Seller or assumption of liability or risk by Seller.  Purchaser hereby agrees to restore, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, the Property to the same condition existing immediately prior to Purchaser’s exercise of its rights pursuant to this Article III.  Purchaser agrees that its third party consultants shall maintain (a) casualty insurance and commercial general 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 in which the Property is located.  Purchaser shall deliver proof of the insurance coverage required pursuant to this Section 3.4.2 to Seller (in the form of a certificate of insurance) prior to Purchaser’s Consultants’ entry onto the Property.

3.5       Property Materials.

3.5.1    Within 5 Business Days after the Effective Date, and to the extent the same exist and are in Seller’s possession or reasonable control (subject to Section 3.5.2) and have not been heretofore provided by Seller to Purchaser, Seller agrees to make the documents set forth on Schedule 4 (together with any other documents or information provided by Seller or its agents to Purchaser with respect to the Property, the “Materials”) available at the Property for review and copying by Purchaser at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense.  In the alternative, at Seller’s option and within the foregoing time period, Seller may deliver some or all of the Materials to Purchaser, or make the same available to Purchaser on a secure web site (Purchaser agrees that any item to be delivered by 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 Seller and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the same to Purchaser within 5 Business Days after such notification is received by Seller; provided, however, that under no circumstances will the Feasibility Period be extended and Purchaser’s sole remedy will be to terminate this Contract pursuant to Section 3.2.  Additionally, Seller shall make available to Purchaser additional rent rolls or rent arrears information, as Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time, to the extent reasonably available to Seller.

3.5.2    In providing the Materials to Purchaser, other than Seller’s Representations, Seller makes no representation or warranty, express, written, oral, statutory, or implied, and all such representations and warranties are hereby expressly excluded and disclaimed.  All Materials are provided for informational purposes only and, together with all Third-Party Reports, shall be returned by Purchaser to Seller (or the destruction thereof shall be certified in writing by Purchaser to Seller) as a condition to return of the Deposit to Purchaser if this Contract is terminated for any reason.  Recognizing that the Materials delivered or made available by Seller pursuant to this Contract may not be complete or constitute all of such documents which are in Seller’s possession or control, but are those that are readily and reasonably available to Seller, Purchaser shall not in any way be entitled to rely upon the completeness or accuracy of the Materials 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 Property.

3.5.3    In addition to the items set forth on Schedule 4, no later than 5 Business Days after the Effective Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser (or otherwise make available to Purchaser as provided under Section 3.5.1) the most recent rent roll for the Property, which rent roll is that which Seller uses in the ordinary course of operating the Property (the “Rent Roll”).  Seller makes no representations or warranties regarding the Rent Roll other than the express representation set forth in Section 6.1.5.

3.5.4    In addition to the items set forth on Schedule 4, no later than 5 Business Days after the Effective Date, and to the extent same have not been heretofore provided by Seller to Purchaser, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser (or otherwise make available to Purchaser as provided under Section 3.5.1) a list of all current Property Contracts (the “Property Contracts List”).  Seller makes no representations or warranties regarding the Property Contracts List other than the express representations set forth in Section 6.1.6.

4.5       Purchaser’s Rights in Respect of Seller’s Inability to Remove Title Exceptions.

4.5.1    If Seller shall be unable to cause title to the Property to be subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, and Purchaser shall not, prior to the Closing Date, give notice to Seller that Purchaser is willing to waive objection to each title exception which is not a Permitted Exception and close this transaction without abatement of the Purchase Price, credit or allowance of any kind or any claim or right of action against Seller for damages or otherwise, then Seller shall have the right, at Seller’s sole election, to either (1) take such action as Seller shall deem advisable to discharge each such title exception which is not a Permitted Exception or (2) terminate this Contract.  If Seller shall elect to take action to discharge each such title exception which is not a Permitted Exception, including pursuant to Section 4.6 below, then Seller shall be entitled to one or more adjournments of the scheduled Closing Date set forth in Section 5.1 for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days in the aggregate, and the Closing shall be adjourned to a date specified by Seller on at least five (5) Business Days’ notice not beyond such thirty (30) day period.   If, for any reason whatsoever, excluding willful default, Seller shall not have succeeded in discharging each such title exception at the expiration of such adjournment(s) and if Purchaser shall not, prior to the expiration of the last of such adjournments, give notice to Seller that Purchaser is willing to waive objection to each such title exception and to close this transaction without abatement of the Purchase Price, credit or allowance of any kind or any claim or right of action against Seller for damages or otherwise, then this Contract shall be deemed to be terminated as of the last date to which the Closing Date was adjourned by Seller pursuant to this Section 4.5.  No action taken by Seller to discharge, or attempt to discharge, any purported title exception shall be an admission that any such purported title exception is not a Permitted Exception.  If Seller elects to proceed under (2) above, Purchaser shall have the further right, by notice to be given within three (3) Business Days after Seller elects to terminate, to cancel such termination, waive the objection, and close title subject thereto without any adjustment to the Purchase Price. 

4.5.2    Seller shall be obligated to cure all title defects which can be cured solely by the payment of a liquidated sum up to an aggregate sum of $525,000 (“Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions”).  If the aggregate cost to cure such Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions exceeds $525,000 and Seller notifies Purchaser that Seller does not intend to cure such Liquidated Sum Title Exceptions (by bonding the lien or causing the Title Insurer to omit as an exception to title insurance coverage or otherwise insure against collection against the Property), then Purchaser may terminate this Contract by written notice delivered to Seller within 7 Business Days after Purchaser receives such notice from Seller.  If Purchaser timely so elects to terminate this Contract, then the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser, Purchaser may recover from Seller, as Purchaser’s sole remedy, its direct and actual out-of-pocket expenses and costs (documented by paid invoices to third parties) in connection with this transaction, which expenses and costs shall not exceed $50,000 in the aggregate and this Contract shall be of no further force or effect, except for those provisions which expressly survive termination of this Contract.

4.6       Subsequently Disclosed Exceptions.

  If at any time after the expiration of the Feasibility Period, any update to the Title Commitment discloses any additional item that affects title to the Property which was not disclosed on any version of or update to the Title Commitment delivered to Purchaser during the Feasibility Period (the “New Exception”), Purchaser shall have a period of 5 days from the date of its receipt of such update (the “New Exception Review Period”) to review and notify Seller in writing of Purchaser’s approval or disapproval of the New Exception.  If Purchaser disapproves of the New Exception, then Seller may, in Seller’s sole discretion, notify Purchaser as to whether it is willing to cure (or cause the Title Insurer to omit as an exception to title insurance coverage or otherwise insure against collection against the Property) the New Exception.  If Seller elects to cure the New Exception (or to cause the Title Insurer to omit the New Exception as an exception to title insurance coverage as permitted hereunder, then Seller shall be entitled to reasonable adjournments of the Closing Date to cure the New Exception.  If Seller fails to deliver a notice to Purchaser within 3 days after the expiration of the New Exception Review Period, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the New Exception.  If Purchaser is dissatisfied with Seller’s response, or lack thereof, then Purchaser may, as its exclusive remedy elect to either:  (i) terminate this Contract, in which event the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser or (ii) waive the New Exception and proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Contract, in which event Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the New Exception.  If Purchaser fails to notify Seller of its election to terminate this Contract within 6 days after Seller has notified Purchaser that Seller has elected not to cure the New Exception, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waive any objections to the New Exception.

4.7.2    Purchaser agrees that, at the Closing, (a) Purchaser shall assume Seller’s obligations under the Notes and all of the other Assumed Loan Documents and accept title to the Property subject to the Assumed Encumbrances, and (b) the Lenders shall release Seller, as well as any guarantors and other obligated parties under the Assumed Loan Documents, from all post-closing obligations under the Assumed Loan Documents (and any related guarantees or letters of credit), including, without limitation, any obligation to make payments of principal and interest under the Notes (collectively, the foregoing (a) and (b) referred to herein as the “Loan Assumption and Release”).

4.7.2.1 Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (a) certain of the provisions of the Assumed Loan Documents may have been negotiated for the exclusive benefit of Seller, AIMCO or their respective affiliates (such provisions, which are referenced on Schedule 6 hereto are herein called the “Specific AIMCO Provisions”), and (b) unless the Lenders otherwise agree in each 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.

4.7.2.2 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Contract to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be obligated to assume Seller’s obligations under the Assumed Encumbrances if, as a condition to the issuance of the Loan Assumption and Release, (a) Lenders require any change to the interest rate, maturity date and/or amortization period under any of the Loans or (b) Lenders require any other material modifications to the terms of the Assumed Loan Documents that are not acceptable to Purchaser, other than (i) the deletion of one or more of the Specific AIMCO Provisions as provided above, (ii) imposing customary escrows for taxes and/or insurance in monthly amounts that do not exceed 1/12th of the reasonably estimated annual taxes and insurance premiums for the Property ((ii) is herein called the “Required Loan Fund Amounts”) or (iii) standard types of ministerial requirements, such as production of title reports.  The provisions of this Section 4.7.2.2 shall survive the Closing.

4.7.3    Seller and Purchaser agree that if, as a condition to the issuance of the Loan Assumption and Release, any one or more of the Lenders requires a partial prepayment of the principal portion of one or more of the Loans (the aggregate amount by which the outstanding principal balance of the Loans is required to be prepaid is herein called the “Principal Paydown Amount”), then Purchaser shall notify Seller of the Principal Paydown Amount and the aggregate principal balance of the Loans (after giving effect to the Principal Paydown Amount) that Lender is willing to assign at Closing (the “Reduced Principal Amount”):

4.7.3.1 If the Reduced Principal Amount is equal to or greater than $20,625,000, then at Closing Purchaser shall partially prepay the Loans in the Principal Paydown Amount.

4.7.3.2 If the Reduced Principal Amount is less than $20,625,000, then within ten (10) days after Purchaser notifies Seller of the Reduced Principal Amount, Seller shall notify Purchaser as to whether or not Seller agrees to pay the portion of the Principal Paydown Amount necessary to reduce the aggregate principal balance of the Loans from $20,625,000 to the required Reduced Principal Amount (“Seller’s Reduced Principal Notice”).  If Seller agrees to so pay such amount, then at Closing, Seller shall grant Purchaser a credit for such amount.  If Seller does not agree to so pay any such amount, then Purchaser shall deliver a written notice to Seller (“Purchaser’s Reduced Principal Notice”) within ten (10) days of receipt of Seller’s Reduced Principal Notice, whereby Purchaser shall either (a) agree to pay the entire Principal Paydown Amount or (b) terminate this Contract.  If, in Purchaser’s Reduced Principal Notice, Purchaser agrees to accept the assignment of the loans at the Reduced Principal Amount, then at Closing Purchaser shall pay the entire Principal Paydown Amount so required by the Lenders.  If, in Purchaser’s Reduced Principal Notice, Purchaser elects to terminate this Contract, then the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser, Purchaser shall be reimbursed for its direct and actual out-of-pocket expenses and costs (documented by invoices from third parties) in connection with this transaction (which reimbursement shall not exceed $50,000 in aggregate) and this Contract shall be of no further force or effect, except for the Survival Provisions.

4.7.4    If, in connection with any required partial prepayment of the Loans, a prepayment penalty or premium (including any yield maintenance premium) is due to one or more of the Lender(s) (the "Prepayment Penalty"), then Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller of the amount of the Prepayment Penalty. 

4.7.4.1 If the Prepayment Penalty is equal to or less than $200,000, then at Closing (a) Purchaser shall pay the first $100,000 of the Prepayment Penalty (i.e., $1 to $100,000) and (b) Seller shall pay the next $100,000 of the Prepayment Penalty (i.e., $100,001 to $200,000).  If not obtained by Purchaser in connection with the Loan Assumption and Release, then Seller shall provide Purchaser with Seller’s good faith estimate of the Prepayment Penalty not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing Date.

4.7.4.2 If the Prepayment Penalty exceeds $200,000, then within ten (10) days after Purchaser notifies Seller of the amount of the Prepayment Penalty, Seller shall notify Purchaser as to whether or not Seller agrees to pay that portion of the Prepayment Penalty that exceeds $200,000 ("Seller's Prepayment Penalty Notice").  If, in Seller's Prepayment Penalty Notice, Seller agrees to pay the portion of the Prepayment Penalty that exceeds $200,000, then at Closing Seller shall pay (in addition to the sums payable by Seller under Section 4.7.2.2 above) the portion of the Prepayment Penalty that exceeds $200,000.  If, in Seller's Prepayment Penalty Notice, Seller does not agree to pay the portion of the Prepayment Penalty that exceeds $200,000, then Purchaser shall deliver a written notice to Seller ("Purchaser's Prepayment Penalty Notice") within 10 days after receipt of Seller's Prepayment Penalty Notice, whereby Purchaser shall either (a) agree to pay that portion of the Prepayment Penalty that exceeds $200,000 or (b) terminate this Contract.   If, in Purchaser's Prepayment Penalty Notice, Purchaser agrees to pay the portion of the Prepayment Penalty that exceeds $200,000, then at Closing Purchaser shall pay (in addition to the sums payable by Purchaser under Section 4.7.2.2 above) the portion of the Prepayment Penalty that exceeds $200,000.  If, in Purchaser's Prepayment Penalty Notice, Purchaser elects to terminate this Contract, then the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and this Contract shall be of no further force or effect, except for the Survival Provisions.

4.7.5    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 15 days after the Effective Date (the “Loan Assumption Application Submittal Deadline”), shall satisfy the requirements set forth in the Assumed Loan Documents to allow for the Loan Assumption and Release, including, without limitation, submitting a substantially complete application to each of the Lenders for assumption of the Loans together with all documents and information required in connection therewith (collectively, the “Loan Assumption Application”).  Purchaser agrees to notify Seller that the Loan Assumption Application has been submitted to Lenders, promptly after such submission.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser is solely responsible for the preparation and submittal of the Loan Assumption Application, including the collection of all materials, documents, certificates, financials, signatures, and other items required to be submitted to Lenders in connection with the Loan Assumption Application, except that, upon Purchaser’s or Lenders’ request to Seller, which request shall specify which Property-related documents are to be delivered to Lenders by Seller, Seller shall deliver any Property-related documents to Lenders, to the extent (a) not previously delivered to Purchaser, (b) that the same exist and (c) such Property-related documents are in Seller’s possession or reasonable control.

4.7.7    Purchaser shall pay all fees and expenses (including, without limitation, all servicing fees and charges, title fees, endorsement fees, and other fees to release Seller of all liability under the Loans) imposed or charged by any of the Lenders or their counsel (such fees and expenses collectively being referred to as the “Lender Fees”), in connection with the Loan Assumption Application and the Loan Assumption and Release, except for the assumption fees up to 1% of the amount of the Loans, which will be paid by Seller on behalf of Purchaser.  If the Lender Fees exceed $59,000 (excluding the 1% assumption fee being paid by Seller), and Seller does not agree to pay the excess, then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Contract.  In the event of such termination, the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser and this Contract shall be of no further force or effect, except for those provisions which expressly survive termination of this Contract.

4.7.8    Seller shall assign all of its right, title and interest in and to all reserves, impounds and other accounts held by Lenders in connection with the Loans, and at Closing, Purchaser shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the balance of such reserves, impounds and accounts so assigned.

5.4.1    General.  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 day after the Closing Date, Seller being charged or credited, as appropriate, for all of same attributable to the period up to the day after the Closing Date (and credited for any amounts paid by Seller attributable to the period on or after the day 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 day after the Closing Date.  Seller shall prepare a proration schedule (the “Proration Schedule”) of the adjustments described in this Section 5.4 prior to Closing.

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

5.4.3    Utilities.  The final readings and final billings for utilities will be made if possible as of the day after Closing Date, in which case Seller shall pay all such bills as of such 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.  Seller shall be entitled to the return of any deposit(s) posted by it with any utility company, and Seller shall notify each utility company serving the Property to terminate Seller’s account, effective as of the day after the Closing Date.

5.4.4    Real Estate Taxes.  Any real estate ad valorem or similar taxes for the Property, or any installment of assessments payable in installments which installment is payable in the calendar year of Closing, shall be prorated to the date after the day of Closing, based upon actual days involved.  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 the Property or for the tax rate) for the year of Closing are not available at the Closing Date, the proration shall be made using figures from the preceding year (assuming payment at the earliest time to allow for the maximum possible discount).  The proration of real 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 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 the Property shall be prorated as of the day after the Closing Date.  Purchaser shall receive all collected rent and income attributable to dates from and after the day after the Closing Date.  Seller shall receive all collected rent and income attributable to dates prior to the day after 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 Seller’s favor for rents which have accrued and are unpaid as of the Closing, but Purchaser shall pay Seller such accrued Uncollected Rents as and when collected by Purchaser.  Purchaser agrees to bill Tenants of the Property for all Uncollected Rents and to take reasonable actions to collect Uncollected Rents but shall not be obligated to commence or pursue any legal actions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser’s obligation to collect Uncollected Rents shall be limited to Uncollected Rents of not more than 90 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.  After the Closing, 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 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 Seller of such right; provided however, that the foregoing right of Seller shall be limited to actions seeking monetary damages and, in no event, shall Seller seek to evict any Tenants in any action to collect Uncollected Rents.  Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Seller in connection with all efforts by 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 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 Seller; provided, however, that Purchaser’s obligation to cooperate with Seller pursuant to this sentence shall not obligate Purchaser to terminate any Tenant lease with an existing Tenant or evict any existing Tenant from the Property.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if between the Effective Date and the Closing, Seller enters into any new Lease or renews an existing Lease and such new Lease or renewed existing Lease provides that the Tenant thereunder is entitled to one or more rent concessions for periods after the month in which the Closing occurs, then, at Seller’s election, either (x) such rent concession(s) shall be spread out equally over the term of such Lease or (y) at Closing, Seller shall give Purchaser a credit in the amount of such rent concession(s) applicable to the portion of the Lease term which occurs after the month in which the Closing occurs and which exceeds an amount equal to one and one-half months of rent.

5.4.6.2 At Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit against the 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, pet or other refundable deposits 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 Seller which constitutes the Tenant Security Deposit Balance shall be retained by Seller in exchange for the foregoing credit against the Purchase Price and shall not be transferred by 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 Seller, either pursuant to the Leases or otherwise.

5.4.6.3 At Closing, Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the sum of any rent concessions granted for periods after the Closing as a result of a settlement between Seller, as landlord, and a tenant at the Property for failure of Seller to perform any of its actions or obligations as landlord under a lease (as opposed to any rent concessions granted in connection with a new or renewed lease).

5.4.7    Existing Loans.

5.4.7.1 Seller shall be responsible for all principal (except for any mandatory partial prepayment of any of the Loans pursuant to Section 4.7.3 above, unless agreed to by Seller pursuant to Section 4.7.3.2) required to be paid under the terms of the Notes prior to the day after the Closing Date, together with all interest accrued under the Notes prior to the day after the Closing Date, all of which may be a credit against the Purchase Price as provided in Section 2.2.3

5.4.7.2 Subject to the terms of Section 4.7.7 above, Purchaser shall be responsible for all Lender Fees and all other fees, penalties, interest and other amounts due and owing under the Assumed Loan Documents as a result of the Loan Assumption and Release, other than the assumption fees up to 1% of the amount of the Loans, as set forth in Section 4.7.7.  If at Closing, the assumption fees are less than $230,660, then Purchaser shall receive a credit in the amount of the difference between $230,660 and the actual cost of the assumption fees.  As set forth in Section 4.7.8, any existing reserves, impounds and other accounts maintained in connection with the Loans shall be assigned to Purchaser, and at Closing, Purchaser shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the balance of such reserves, impounds and accounts so assigned. 

5.4.8    Insurance.  No proration shall be made in relation to insurance premiums and insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser.  Seller shall have the risk of loss of the Property until the Closing, after which time the risk of loss shall pass to Purchaser and Purchaser shall be responsible for obtaining its own insurance thereafter.

5.4.9    Employees.  All of Seller’s and Seller’s manager’s on-site employees shall have their employment at the Property terminated by Seller or Seller’s manager as of the Closing Date.

5.4.10  Closing Costs.  Purchaser shall pay the cost of (a) all recording and filing charges in connection with the instruments by which Seller conveys the Property (including the Deed) and all mortgage recording fees and taxes with respect to any mortgage loan obtained by Purchaser in connection with its purchase of the Property, (b) all premiums or fees required to be paid by Purchaser with respect to the Title Policy pursuant to Section 4.1, and (c) any “mansion tax” payable on the transfer of the Property to Purchaser.  Seller shall pay the (w) cost of any transfer taxes (with the exception of any “mansion tax”), (x) the cost of recording any instruments required to discharge any liens or encumbrances against the Property, (y) the cost to omit any title exceptions (or otherwise cure the same) which Seller is required to omit or cure pursuant to the terms of this Contract and (z) the base premium for the Title Policy pursuant to Section 4.1.  Seller and Purchaser shall share equally the escrow fees of the Title Insurer (but not any other charges or fees of the Title Insurer).

5.4.11  Intentionally omitted.

5.4.12  Possession.  Possession of the Property, subject to the Leases, Property Contracts, other than Terminated Contracts, 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.  To the extent reasonably available to Seller, originals or copies of the Leases and Property Contracts, lease files, warranties, guaranties, operating manuals, keys to the property, and Seller’s books and records (other than proprietary information) (collectively, “Seller’s Property-Related Files and Records”) regarding the Property shall be made available to Purchaser at the Property after the Closing.  Purchaser agrees, for a period of three (3) years after the Closing (the “Records Hold Period”), to (a) provide and allow Seller reasonable access to Seller’s Property-Related Files and Records for purposes of inspection and copying thereof, and (b) reasonably maintain and preserve Seller’s Property-Related Files and Records.

5.4.13  Brokerage Commissions.  Any outstanding commissions for the rental or lease of any apartments at the Property shall either be paid at Closing by Seller directly to the brokers entitled to such commissions or Seller shall grant Purchaser a credit for such commissions.

5.5       Post Closing Adjustments.

  Purchaser or Seller may request that Purchaser and Seller undertake to re-adjust any item on the Proration Schedule (or any item omitted therefrom), with the exception of real property taxes which shall be final and not subject to readjustment, 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 (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).  The foregoing limitations set forth in Sections 5.5(a) and (b) above shall not apply to rent collected by Seller applicable to periods after the Closing or rent collected by Purchaser for periods prior to the Closing.  Nothing contained herein shall limit the mutual indemnities contained in the Leases Assignment.

6.2       AS-IS.

  Except for Seller’s Representations, the Property is expressly purchased and sold “AS IS,” “WHERE IS,” and “WITH ALL FAULTS.”  The Purchase Price and the terms and conditions set forth herein are the result of arm’s-length bargaining between entities familiar with transactions of this kind, and said price, terms and conditions reflect the fact that Purchaser shall have the benefit of, but is not relying upon, any information provided by Seller or Broker or statements, representations or warranties, express or implied, made by or enforceable directly against Seller or Broker, including, without limitation, any relating to the value of the Property, the physical or environmental condition of the Property, any state, federal, county or local law, ordinance, order or permit; or the suitability, compliance or lack of compliance of the Property with any regulation, or any other attribute or matter of or relating to the Property (other than any covenants of title contained in the Deed conveying the Property and Seller’s Representations).  Purchaser agrees that Seller shall not be responsible or liable to Purchaser for any defects, errors or omissions, or on account of any conditions affecting the Property.  Purchaser represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, it has and shall have reviewed and conducted such independent analyses, studies (including, without limitation, environmental studies and analyses concerning the presence of lead, asbestos, water intrusion and/or fungal growth and any resulting damage, PCBs and radon in and about the Property), reports, investigations and inspections as it deems appropriate in connection with the Property.  If Seller  provides or has provided any documents, summaries, opinions or work product of consultants, surveyors, architects, engineers, title companies, governmental authorities or any other person or entity with respect to the Property, including, without limitation, the offering prepared by Broker, Purchaser and Seller agree that Seller has done so or shall do so only for the convenience of both parties, Purchaser shall not rely thereon and the reliance by Purchaser upon any such documents, summaries, opinions or work product shall not create or give rise to any liability of or against Seller’s Indemnified Parties.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that no representation has been made and no responsibility is assumed by Seller with respect to current and future applicable zoning or building code requirements or the compliance of the Property with any other laws, rules, ordinances or regulations, the financial earning capacity or expense history of the Property, the continuation of contracts, continued occupancy levels of the Property, 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, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enforce its rights against any and all 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 Deed with or without such tenants in possession and without any allowance or reduction in the Purchase Price under this Contract.  Purchaser hereby releases Seller from any and all claims and liabilities relating to the foregoing matters.

6.3       Survival of Seller’s Representations.

  Seller and Purchaser agree that Seller’s Representations shall survive Closing for a period of 6 months (the “Survival Period”).  Seller shall have no liability after the Survival Period with respect to Seller’s Representations contained herein except to the extent that Purchaser has requested arbitration against Seller during the Survival Period for breach of any of Seller’s Representations.  Under no circumstances shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for more than $450,000 in any individual instance or in the aggregate for all breaches of Seller’s Representations, nor shall Purchaser 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 exceeds $5,000.  In the event that Seller breaches any representation contained in Section 6.1 and Purchaser had actual knowledge (or knowledge could have been ascertained from the Materials) of such breach prior to the Closing Date, and elected to close regardless, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any right of recovery, and Seller shall not have any liability in connection therewith.

6.4       Definition of Seller’s Knowledge.

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 Seller.

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

8.2.1    All of the documents and funds required to be delivered by Purchaser to Seller at the Closing pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof shall have been delivered;

8.2.2    Each of the representations, warranties and covenants of Purchaser contained herein shall be true in all material respects as of the Closing Date;

8.2.3    Purchaser shall have complied with, fulfilled and performed in all material respects each of the covenants, terms and conditions to be complied with, fulfilled or performed by Purchaser hereunder;

8.2.4    There shall not be any pending litigation or, to the knowledge of either Purchaser or Seller, any litigation threatened in writing, which, if adversely determined, would restrain the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Contract or declare illegal, invalid or nonbinding any of the covenants or obligations of the Purchaser;

8.2.5    The Loan Assumption and Release shall have occurred; and

8.2.6    Seller has informed Purchaser that in connection with the sale of the Property pursuant to this Contract, Seller is required to file an information statement with the United States Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Rule 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Information Statement”) and to distribute the Information Statement to Seller's limited partners.  Seller shall file the Information Statement with the SEC promptly after the Effective Date.  It shall be a condition to Seller’s closing obligations hereunder that (A) either (x) Seller has not received any comments on the Information Statement from SEC for a period of 10 business days after the Information Statement has been filed with the SEC or (y) if Seller has received comments from the SEC within such 10 business day period, such comments have been addressed to the satisfaction of the SEC and the SEC has confirmed that it has no further comments to the Information Statement and (B) thereafter the Information Statement has been delivered to each of the limited partners of Seller and a period of not less than 20 days has expired.  Seller shall advise Purchaser when the Information Statement is being mailed to the limited partners.

If any of the foregoing conditions to Seller’s obligation to close with respect to conveyance of the Property under this Contract are not met, Seller may (a) waive any of the foregoing conditions and proceed to Closing on the Closing Date, or (b) terminate this Contract, and, if such failure constitutes a default by Purchaser, exercise any of its remedies under Section 10.1.  If the Closing does not occur because of a failure of Seller to comply with the provisions of Section 8.2.6 and provided that Purchaser is not otherwise in default under this Contract, then, in addition to the return of the Deposit to Purchaser, and as Purchaser’s sole remedy, Purchaser shall be entitled to the reimbursement of its direct and actual out-of-pocket expenses and costs (documented by paid invoices to third parties) in connection with this transaction, which reimbursement shall not exceed $50,000 in the aggregate.

ARTICLE X
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

10.1     Purchaser Default.

  If Purchaser defaults in its obligations hereunder to (a) deliver the Initial Deposit, the Additional Deposit or the Adjournment Deposit (or any other deposit or payment required of Purchaser hereunder), (b) deliver to Seller the deliveries specified under Section 5.3 on the date required thereunder, or (c) deliver the Purchase Price at the time required by Section 2.2.4 and close on the purchase of the Property on the Closing Date, then, immediately and without the right to receive notice or to cure pursuant to Section 2.3.3, Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit to Seller, and neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the Property.  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, then Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit to Seller, and neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the Property.  The Deposit is liquidated damages and recourse to the Deposit is, except for Purchaser’s indemnity and confidentiality obligations hereunder, Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy for Purchaser’s failure to perform its obligation to purchase the Property or breach of a representation or warranty.  Seller expressly waives the remedies of specific performance and additional damages for such default by Purchaser.  SELLER AND PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLER’S DAMAGES WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE, AND THAT THE DEPOSIT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLER’S DAMAGES RESULTING FROM A DEFAULT BY PURCHASER IN ITS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTY.  SELLER AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 10.1 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES LIQUIDATE THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE SELLER, AND SHALL BE SELLER’S 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 Seller defaults in its obligations hereunder to (a) deliver to Escrow Agent the deliveries specified under Section 5.2 on the date required thereunder or (b) satisfy the conditions contained in Sections 8.1.1, 8.1.3 (with respect to the covenants of Seller to be performed on the Closing Date only), 8.1.4 or 8.1.6 and provided that Purchaser is, on the Closing Date, ready, willing and able to deliver all of Purchaser’s deliveries specified by Section 5.3 and pay the Purchase Price to Seller, then Seller shall be deemed to immediately be in default and Purchaser may exercise Purchaser’s rights contained in this Section 10.2 without any opportunity of Seller to cure such default.  If Seller, prior to the Closing, defaults in its covenants or obligations under this Contract which are to be performed prior to Closing 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, either (a) this Contract shall terminate, and all payments and things of value, including the Deposit, provided by Purchaser hereunder shall be returned to Purchaser and Purchaser may recover, as its sole recoverable damages (but without limiting its right to receive a refund of the Deposit), its direct and actual out-of-pocket expenses and costs (documented by paid invoices to third parties) in connection with this transaction, which damages shall not exceed $50,000 in aggregate, or (b) subject to the conditions below, Purchaser may seek specific performance of Seller’s obligation to deliver the Deed pursuant to this Contract (but not damages).  Purchaser may seek specific performance of Seller’s obligation to deliver the Deed pursuant to this Contract only if, as a condition precedent to initiating such litigation for specific performance, Purchaser first shall (i) deliver all Purchaser Closing documents to Escrow Agent in accordance with the requirements of this Contract, including, without limitation, Sections 2.2.3 and 5.3 (with the exception of Section 5.3.1); (ii) not otherwise be in default under this Contract; and (iii) file suit therefor with the court on or before the 120th day after the Closing Date; if Purchaser fails to file an action for specific performance within 120 days after the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate the Contract in accordance with subsection (a) above.  Purchaser agrees that it shall promptly deliver to 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 paid for with the out-of-pocket expenses reimbursed by Seller pursuant to the foregoing sentence.  SELLER 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 SELLER, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY SELLER OF ITS 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 SELLER FOR ANY BREACH BY SELLER, OF ITS COVENANTS OR ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS CONTRACT.  PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO FILE ANY LIS PENDENS OR ANY LIEN AGAINST THE PROPERTY UNLESS AND UNTIL IT HAS IRREVOCABLY ELECTED TO SEEK SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF THIS CONTRACT AND HAS FILED AND IS DILIGENTLY PURSUING AN ACTION SEEKING SUCH REMEDY.

ARTICLE XI
RISK OF LOSS OR CASUALTY

11.1     Major Damage.

  In the event that the Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Closing, and the cost for demolition, site cleaning, restoration, replacement, or other repairs (collectively, the “Repairs”), is more than $1,000,000.00, then Seller shall have no obligation to make such Repairs, and shall notify Purchaser in writing of such damage or destruction (the “Damage Notice”).  Within 10 Business Days after Purchaser’s receipt of the Damage Notice, Purchaser may elect at its option to terminate this Contract by delivering written notice to Seller in which event the Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser.  In the event Purchaser fails to terminate this Contract within the foregoing 10 Business Day period, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with Section 11.3 below.

11.2     Minor Damage.

  In the event that the Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing, and the cost of Repairs is equal to or less than $1,000,000.00, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with Section 11.3, notwithstanding such casualty.  In such event, Seller may at its election endeavor to make such Repairs to the extent of any recovery from insurance carried on the Property, if such Repairs can be reasonably effected before the Closing.  Regardless of Seller’s election to commence such Repairs, or Seller’s ability to complete such Repairs prior to Closing, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with Section 11.3 below.

11.3     Closing.

  In the event Purchaser fails to terminate this Contract following a casualty as set forth in Section 11.1, or in the event of a casualty as set forth in Section 11.2, then this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of the Contract, at Seller’s election, either (i) for the full Purchase Price, notwithstanding any such casualty, in which case Purchaser shall, at Closing, execute and deliver an assignment and assumption (in a form reasonably required by Seller) of Seller’s rights and obligations with respect to the insurance claim related to such casualty, and thereafter Purchaser shall receive all insurance proceeds pertaining to such claim, less any amounts which may already have been spent by Seller for Repairs (plus a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in the amount of any deductible payable by Seller in connection therewith, plus the amount of any uninsured loss for which coverage has been denied and plus the amount of any proceeds which are not assignable to Purchaser); or (ii) for the full Purchase Price less a credit to Purchaser in the amount necessary to complete such Repairs (less any amounts which may already have been spent by Seller for Repairs).

11.4     Repairs.

  To the extent that Seller elects to commence any Repairs prior to Closing, then Seller shall be entitled to receive and apply available insurance proceeds to any portion of such Repairs completed or installed prior to Closing, with Purchaser being responsible for completion of such Repairs after Closing.  To the extent that any Repairs have been commenced prior to Closing, then the Property Contracts shall include, and Purchaser shall assume at Closing, all construction and other contracts entered into by Seller in connection with such Repairs.

ARTICLE XII
EMINENT DOMAIN

12.1     Eminent Domain.

  In the event that, at the time of Closing, any material part of the 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 terminate this Contract by giving written notice within 10 days after Purchaser’s receipt from Seller of notice of the occurrence of such event, and if Purchaser so terminates this Contract, Purchaser shall recover the Deposit hereunder.  If Purchaser fails to terminate this Contract within such 10-day period, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of this Contract for the full Purchase Price 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 the Property.

ARTICLE XIII
MISCELLANEOUS

13.1     Binding Effect of Contract.

13.18   1031 Exchange.

  Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the purchase and sale of the Property may be part of a tax-free exchange for either Purchaser or Seller pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code, the regulations promulgated thereunder, revenue procedures, pronouncements and other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service.  Each party hereby agrees to cooperate with each other and 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, except as specifically provided herein.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13.18 to the contrary, Seller shall have the right to extend the Closing Date (as extended pursuant to the second or third sentences of Section 5.1) for up to 30 days in order to facilitate a tax free exchange pursuant to this Section 13.18, and to obtain all documentation in connection therewith.

13.19   No Personal Liability of Officers, Trustees or Directors of Seller’s Partners.

  Purchaser acknowledges that this Contract is entered into by Seller which is a California limited partnership, and Purchaser agrees that none of Seller’s Indemnified Parties shall have any personal liability under this Contract or any document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Contract.

13.20   No Exclusive Negotiations.

  Seller shall have the right, at all times prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period, to solicit backup offers and enter into discussions, negotiations, or any other communications concerning or related to the sale of the Property with any third-party; provided, however, that such communications are subject to the terms of this Contract, and that Seller shall not enter into any binding contract with a third-party for the sale of the Property unless such contract is contingent on the termination of this Contract without the Property having been conveyed to Purchaser.

13.21   ADA Disclosure.

  Purchaser acknowledges that the Property 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 the Property accessible to disabled persons and provide auxiliary aids and services for hearing, vision or speech impaired persons.  Seller makes no warranty, representation or guarantee of any type or kind with respect to the Property’s compliance with the ADA or the FHA (or any similar state or local law), and Seller expressly disclaims any such representations.

13.22   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 Seller’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld at Seller’s sole discretion.  If 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 Seller 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.

13.23   Relationship of Parties.

  Purchaser and Seller 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 Seller is, nor shall either hold itself out to be, the agent, employee, joint venturer or partner of the other party.

13.24   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 in which the Property is located.  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 13.24 shall not prevent Purchaser or Seller 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 13.24.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may obtain a restraining order from a court of competent jurisdiction.

13.25   AIMCO Marks.

  Purchaser agrees that Seller, 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.

ARTICLE XIV
LEAD–BASED PAINT DISCLOSURE

14.1     Disclosure.

  Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledge delivery of the Lead Based Paint Disclosure attached as Exhibit H hereto.

14.2     Consent Agreement.

  Testing (the “Testing”) has been performed at the Property with respect to lead-based paint.  Law Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. performed the Testing and reported, in a certification dated May 14, 2001, that the Property is “Lead-Based Paint Free Housing” (the “Certification”).  By execution hereof, Purchaser acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Certification, the Lead-Based Paint Disclosure Statement attached hereto as Exhibit H, and acknowledges receipt of that certain Consent Agreement (the “Consent Agreement”) by and among the United States Environmental Protection Agency (executed December 19, 2001), the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (executed January 2, 2002), and AIMCO (executed December 18, 2001).  Because the Property has been certified as lead-based paint free, Seller is not required under the Consent Agreement to remediate or abate any lead-based paint condition at the Property prior to the Closing.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (1) after Closing, Purchaser and the Property shall be subject to the Consent Agreement and the provisions contained herein related thereto and (2) that Purchaser shall not be deemed to be a third party beneficiary to the Consent Agreement.
