The Registrant is obligated under certain non-recourse notes (the "Notes") in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $520,000, which bear interest at 9.5% per annum and are payable to an affiliate of Renewal Housing Associates, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company that is not affiliated with the Registrant. The Notes matured on December 31, 1999. As of August 31, 2005 accrued interest on the Notes was approximately $1,015,000. The Notes and related accrued interest are collateralized by the Registrant's investment in Warren Heights. On September 15, 2005, Warren Heights entered into a contract with Renewal Housing Associates, LLC, (the "Purchaser") dated August 26, 2005 to sell its 88 unit apartment investment property to the Purchaser for approximately $1,170,000. The Registrant expects to receive approximately $127,000 from the transaction and complete satisfaction of the non-recourse notes payable and related accrued interest due to the affiliate of the Purchaser. The foregoing are estimates, and there can be no assurance that these estimates will prove accurate. The closing is expected to occur on or before July 31, 2006. The Purchaser has the right to extend the closing for three periods of 30 days by delivering written notice to the Seller at least five business days prior to the expected closing date. The closing is also subject to approval by the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, Seller is the owner of a certain 88-unit apartment project commonly known as Warren Heights II, located on real property more particularly described below (the "Real Property"); and WHEREAS, Seller agrees to sell to Purchaser and Purchaser agrees to purchase from Seller, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Property (as such term is defined in Section 1.1 hereof). NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser hereby covenant and agree as follows: I. INCLUSIONS IN SALE 1.1 There shall be included in this sale all of the following (collectively, the "Property"): 1.1.1 The parcel or parcels of real property described on Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof (collectively, the "Land"), together with all rights and appurtenances pertaining thereto, including, without limitation, any and all rights of Seller in and to all: oil, gas and other minerals, air and development rights, roads, alleys, easements, streets and ways adjacent to the Land, rights of ingress and egress thereto, any strips and gores within or bounding the Land, profits or rights or appurtenances pertaining to the Land, and all goodwill, intellectual property, licenses, and permits owned by Seller and used in connection with the Real Property. 1.1.2 The buildings and all other improvements, structures and fixtures placed, constructed or installed on the Land (collectively, the "Improvements"). 1.1.3 All right, title and interest of Seller in and to all leases, licenses and other occupancy agreements (individually, a "Lease", collectively, the "Leases") covering space situated at or within the Land and Improvements and any claim or right to claim against a tenant or occupant (individually, a "Tenant", collectively, the "Tenants") under any Lease and all security deposits actually held by the landlord or its agent, or, in addition thereto, those deposits required to be paid by Tenants as set forth in the Leases. 1.1.4 All of Seller's rights in and to all contractual rights and intangibles with respect to the operation, maintenance, repair and improvement of the Land and Improvements, including service and maintenance agreements, construction, material and labor contracts, utility agreements and other contractual arrangements, all to the extent determined by the provisions of this Agreement to be acceptable to Purchaser (collectively, the "Contracts") and warranties of any contractor, manufacturer or materialman with respect to the Real Property. 1.1.5 Excluding personal property owned by Tenants, but including all equipment, furnishings, fixtures, supplies, and other tangible personal property owned by Seller (collectively, the "Personal Property") placed or installed on or about the Land or Improvements now or prior to "Closing" (as such term is defined below in this Agreement) and used as part of or in connection with the Land or Improvements. 1.1.6 All of Seller's interest in the right to the use of the trade name "Warren Heights II" in connection with the Real Property, and all logos, if any, associated therewith (collectively, the "Trade Name"). 1.1.7 All residual receipts and escrows for replacement reserves, tax reserves, insurance reserves, mortgage insurance reserves and/or operating reserves relating to the Real Property (the "Property Accounts"). 1.1.8 All rights to any award made or to be made, or settlement in lieu thereof, or any other payment made or to be made for damage or loss to the Land or Improvements by reason of any insured property loss, condemnation, eminent domain, exercise of police power or change of grade of any street. 1.1.9 Any and all (i) warranties, guaranties, indemnities, housing assistance payment agreements, subsidies and support agreements (whether governmental or otherwise) relating to the foregoing (the "Subsidies"), and (ii) licenses, permits or similar documents. II. PURCHASE PRICE 2.1 The purchase price (the "Purchase Price") for the Property shall be $1,170,224.00, subject to prorations as provided for herein, payable as set forth in the balance of this Article II. 2.1.1 In the event that Purchaser elects to exercise its option, as set forth below in this Agreement, to assume the HUD Loan Documents, there shall be credited toward the Purchase Price at Closing the balance owed, as of the date of Closing, under the HUD Mortgage, or, in the event that Purchaser elects to exercise its option to prepay the indebtedness evidenced by the HUD Loan Documents, Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid to the lender under the HUD Loan Documents the balance owed, as of the Closing, under the HUD Mortgage including, without limitation, accrued but unpaid interest thereunder. 2.1.2 $127,050 shall be paid, at Purchaser's option, by wire transfer, bank, official or certified check, or any combination thereof, to Haverfield Title Agency, Inc. (the "Title Company") for disbursement to Seller at Closing. 2.1.3 The balance of the Purchase Price shall be applied in complete satisfaction of the following: (a) the Non-Negotiable Purchase Money Promissory Note Secured by Personal Property, dated as of June 29, 1984, in the original principal amount of $322,538 made by Real Estate Associates Limited VII to Arthur Orlean, as agent for The Orlean Company; (b) the Non-Negotiable Purchase Money Promissory Note Secured by Personal Property, dated as of June 29, 1984, in the original principal amount of $119,462 made by Real Estate Associates Limited VII to Abel-Bishop and Clarke Realty Company, as trustee for those persons and entities described on Schedule A thereto; and (c) the Non-Negotiable Purchase Money Promissory Note Secured by Personal Property, dated as of June 29, 1984, in the original principal amount of $78,000 made by Real Estate Associates Limited VII to Arthur Orlean, as agent for The Orlean Company (collectively, the "Soft Notes"). 2.2 The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Land and Improvements and the Personal Property as reasonably determined by the parties. III. TITLE AND SURVEY MATTERS; HUD APPROVALS; COVENANTS 3.1 Purchaser shall, at its sole cost and expense, cause the Title Company to issue to Purchaser a title insurance commitment for the Property in the amount of the Purchase Price (the "Title Report") and copies of all exceptions noted therein on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Purchaser shall, if Purchaser desires, have Seller's existing survey updated, if one exists, or have a new survey of the Property made (as applicable, the "Survey"). Purchaser shall have sixty (60) days after its receipt of the Title Report and Survey (the applicable date is referred to herein as the "Title Waiver Date") to examine the condition of the title and to approve or disapprove the same. If Purchaser shall disapprove the condition of the title such disapproval shall be set forth in one or more notices (each, a "Title Disapproval Notice") given to Seller not later than the Title Waiver Date stating that the condition of title to the Property, any of the terms, provisions or the contents of said items and documents are disapproved by Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may deliver one or more additional Title Disapproval Notices after the Title Waiver Date if, at any time after the Title Waiver Date, Purchaser receives an amendment to the Title Report previously delivered to it by the Title Company containing any exception not set forth in a Title Report previously delivered to it, provided that any such additional Title Disapproval Notice shall be given, if at all, within five (5) days after Purchaser receives such amendment. Seller shall have until the date which is ten (10) business days after the date of the applicable Title Disapproval Notice (the "Title Cure Expiration Date") in which to cure or eliminate or agree to cure or eliminate all items which Purchaser disapproves in the applicable Title Disapproval Notice, and to furnish evidence satisfactory to Purchaser and the Title Company that all such items have been cured or eliminated or that arrangements have been made with the Title Company and any parties in interest to cure or eliminate the same at or prior to the Closing. If such evidence is not received by Purchaser and the Title Company on or before the Title Cure Expiration Date or if at Closing there are any additional exceptions to title of which the Title Company has not theretofore provided to Purchaser (all exceptions to title set forth in any and all Title Disapproval Notices and all such additional exceptions to title are herein called "Non-Permitted Exceptions") and Seller is unable or unwilling to cure or eliminate such items, then Purchaser shall either waive the Non-Permitted Exceptions, or terminate this Agreement, in which event neither party hereto shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except those that by their express terms survive termination of this Agreement. 3.2 Purchaser agrees to use all reasonable efforts to submit to HUD Purchaser's application for all required HUD approvals and consents, on terms and conditions satisfactory to Purchaser, as Purchaser deems necessary and sufficient (collectively, the "HUD Approvals") as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date and to diligently pursue the issuance thereof. Seller, at no cost, expense or liability to Seller, agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in the preparation and submission of such materials, documentation, and information as is required in order to obtain the HUD Approvals. 3.3 Not later than five (5) days after the Effective Date, Seller shall give notice to HUD of its intent to prepay the HUD Note (defined below) as required by and in accordance with Section 219(b)(3) of the Departments of Veteran Affairs and Housing and Urban Development, and Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1999, if applicable. Such notice shall not be binding on Purchaser. Purchaser shall have the option to elect to consummate the transaction described in this Agreement by either: (i) a "transfer of physical assets" and corresponding assumption of the HUD Note (the "HUD Note"), Mortgage (the "HUD Mortgage"), Regulatory Agreement, and all other security agreements related thereto (collectively, the "HUD Loan Documents") on the Property; or (ii) a prepayment of the HUD Loan Documents using cash or other financing. As soon as is reasonably practicable, Purchaser shall notify Seller of Purchaser's election of alternatives (i) or (ii) in the preceding sentence. Seller shall not be obligated to prepay the HUD Note until the Closing Date and then only from the proceeds of the Purchase Price. If the aforesaid Section 219(b)(3) is applicable, Purchaser agrees that it will not increase the rent charges for any dwelling unit on the Property during the 60-day period beginning upon such prepayment of the HUD Note. In the event Purchaser elects a prepayment of the HUD Loan Documents, Seller shall take all necessary and sufficient actions relative to the lender(s) such that said HUD Loan Documents can be paid in full at Closing. 3.4 Commencing on the Effective Date of this Agreement and ending on the earlier of the termination of this Agreement or the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby, Seller covenants and agrees to furnish to Purchaser, to the extent such information is in Seller's possession or control, and to the extent not already in the possession of Purchaser, such information, materials and documents as Purchaser may reasonably request. IV. REPRESENTATIONS. WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS 4.1 In addition to the representations, warranties and covenants contained elsewhere in this Agreement, Seller hereby makes to Purchaser the following representations, warranties and covenants which Seller represents as true and correct in all material respects and not materially misleading as of the date hereof, and which shall be true in all material respects and not materially misleading as of the Closing Date, and shall survive the Closing for the period of time set forth after each Section below, provided, however, that the representations, warranties and covenants set forth below shall not apply to any fact, occurrence or situation known by Purchaser to exist prior to the time such representation, warranty or covenant is made: 4.1.1 There is no litigation, condemnation proceeding, or bankruptcy proceeding pending or, to the best of Seller's knowledge, threatened against Seller or the Property that could materially and adversely affect Purchaser or the Property upon or subsequent to the Closing.

The consummation by Seller of the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms of any agreement or instrument to which Seller is a party or by which Seller is bound or constitute a default thereunder, and Seller has received all requisite approvals, except the requisite approvals from HUD, necessary to enable Seller to consummate the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement. No other party has any right to purchase the Property, or any part thereof.

One (1) year. 4.1.7 Seller shall give Purchaser written notice if Seller becomes aware of any event, action, fact or circumstances that would have constituted a breach of any of Seller's representations and warranties under this Agreement if Seller had had such awareness when it made the same, or at any time thereafter ("Warranty Notice"). Such Warranty Notice shall be given as soon as reasonably practicable after Seller becomes aware of any such event, action, fact or circumstance that would have constituted a breach of any of Seller's representations and warranties, but in no event shall such Warranty Notice be given more than five (5) days after Seller becomes aware of such event, action, fact or circumstance. If Purchaser receives a Warranty Notice, Purchaser shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to (i) terminate this Agreement, and neither party hereto shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except those that by their express terms survive termination of this Agreement; or (ii) accept the matter disclosed by the Warranty Notice and proceed to Closing under this Agreement. Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of each Warranty Notice to exercise such option. 4.1.8 Seller has not dealt with a broker in connection with this Agreement and no broker negotiated this Agreement or is entitled to any commission in connection herewith. Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser, and its respective agents and employees harmless from and against all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including, attorneys' fees) arising from either (i) a claim for a fee or commission made by any broker claiming to have acted by or on behalf of Seller in connection with this Agreement, or (ii) a claim of, or right to, lien under the Statutes of Ohio relating to real estate broker liens with respect to any such broker retained by Seller. Seller's obligations in this subsection 4.1.8 shall survive Closing. Purchaser is not relying on any warranty or representation whatsoever other than as is expressly set forth in this Agreement.

Purchaser has the full right, power and authority to purchase the Property from Seller as provided herein and to carry out its obligations hereunder. The consummation by Purchaser of the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms of any agreement or instrument to which Purchaser is a party or by which Purchaser is bound or constitute a default thereunder. 4.2.3 Purchaser has not dealt with a broker in connection with this Agreement and no broker negotiated this Agreement or is entitled to any commission in connection herewith. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller, and its respective agents and employees harmless from and against all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including, attorneys' fees) arising from either (i) a claim for a fee or commission made by any broker claiming to have acted by or on behalf of Purchaser in connection with this Agreement, or (ii) a claim of, or right to, lien under the Statutes of Ohio relating to real estate broker liens with respect to any such broker retained by Purchaser. Purchaser's obligations in this subsection 4.2.3 shall survive Closing. 4.2.4 Purchaser owns the Soft Note, free and clear of all liens, rights, commitments, or restrictions. 4.3 For purposes of the representations and warranties made by Seller in Section 4.1 hereof, the words "to the best of Seller's knowledge" shall mean to the knowledge of Michael Hornbrook and Donald Cappeart. V. OPERATIONS PRIOR TO CLOSING 5.1 Seller agrees that between the date hereof and the Closing Date, Seller or its agents shall: 5.1.1 Continue to operate, or instruct its property manager to continue to operate, the Property as heretofore operated and in accordance with Seller's customary practices at the time of the Effective Date. 5.1.2 Perform, or instruct its property manager to perform, required maintenance and replacements in accordance with past practice and perform repairs or replacements to any broken, defective or disfunctioning portions of the Property as the relevant condition occurs, and, subject to the parties' agreements in Article XI below, deliver the Property at Closing in substantially the same condition as existed on the Effective Date, reasonable wear and tear and any additional impairment of physical condition which would not cost in excess of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) to repair being excepted. 5.1.3 Pay, or cause its property manager to pay, in the normal course of business and, in any event, prior to Closing, sums due for work, materials or services furnished or otherwise incurred in the ownership and operation of the Property up to the Closing Date and pay, or cause it property manager to pay, all amounts due under the HUD Loan Documents as such amounts become due and otherwise continue to comply in all material respects with the HUD Loan Documents. 5.1.4 Neither sell, grant or transfer, nor permit the sale, grant or transfer of, any interest in the Property. 5.1.5 Comply in all material respects with all governmental requirements applicable to the Property. 5.1.6 Promptly advise Purchaser of any litigation or governmental proceeding to which Seller becomes a party affecting the Property. It shall be a condition precedent to Purchaser's obligation to accept title, that there shall be no such litigation or proceeding pending at Closing having a potential, material, adverse effect upon the Property or Seller's ability to convey the Property to Purchaser, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser. Provided, however, that the preceding sentence shall not apply if Purchaser, as manager of the Property, is deemed to be the sole cause of such litigation or governmental proceeding. 5.1.7 Not permit any alteration, structural modification or additions to the Property, except in the nature of ordinary maintenance, repair, or replacement without Purchaser's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. 5.1.8 Not create (or agree to create) any exception to or covenant, restriction, easement or other lien on or affecting the Property without Purchaser's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 5.1.9 Not remove from the Improvements any Personal Property unless the same is replaced by Personal Property of a like kind and of equal or higher value. VI. CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS 6.1 The following are to be prorated or adjusted (as appropriate), if feasible, at the Closing, as of 11:59 P.M. on the day immediately preceding the Closing (the "Adjustment Date"): 6.1.1 Rents, as and when collected. If as of the Adjustment Date there are rents owed by Tenants for the month in which the Closing occurs, then the first monies received from said Tenant or Tenants shall be received on account of or in payment of rents due for the month including the Closing Date and (i) if Purchaser receives past due rents, Seller's aforesaid share thereof shall be promptly remitted by Purchaser to Seller, and (ii) if Seller receives such past due rents, Purchaser's aforesaid share thereof shall be promptly remitted by Seller to Purchaser. With respect to any arrearages for periods prior to the month in which the Closing occurs, Purchaser shall pay such arrearages to Seller as and when collected from the monies received from such Tenant provided such Tenant is otherwise current in its rent. With respect to rents for any period subsequent to the Closing that may be received by Seller, Seller shall promptly remit such rents to Purchaser. For purposes of this Section 6.1.1, the term "rents" shall include any sums paid or payable to Seller pursuant to either a Lease or Contract and the term "tenant" shall include the Tenant as well as the service provider pursuant to such Lease or Contract. 6.1.2 Real estate taxes and assessments, including penalties and interest, shall be prorated as follows: Seller shall pay all real estate taxes and assessments which became due and payable prior to the Closing; at the Closing, the parties shall prorate taxes and assessments becoming due and payable on and after the Closing based on the taxes that are a lien for the year of the Closing, even if such taxes and assessments are not yet due and payable. All prorations shall be based upon the most recent available tax rates, assessments and valuations. 6.1.3 Tax and utility company deposits, if any, and if assignable and assigned. 6.1.4 Electric, gas, water and sewer charges on the basis of a reading effective as of the Adjustment Date. 6.1.5 Amounts paid or payable in respect of any Contracts assigned to Purchaser pursuant to the Assignment of Contracts. 6.1.6 At Purchaser's option, Seller shall either pay to Purchaser at Closing or Purchaser shall receive a credit against the cash portion of the Purchase Price an amount equal to all Tenant security deposits and accrued interest, if any, to which Tenants are entitled pursuant to the Leases or law which are to be assigned to Purchaser at the Closing. 6.1.7 In the event of Purchaser's election of alternative (i) under Section 3.3, Seller shall assign and transfer to Purchaser all Property Accounts, provided however, if Seller is not permitted to assign the residual receipts account or reserves for replacements account on terms satisfactory to Purchaser in Purchaser's sole discretion, Purchaser shall receive a credit against the cash portion of the Purchase Price in the amount(s) of the balance(s) of such accounts and Seller shall retain all right, title and interest in and to such accounts. In the event of Purchaser's election of alternative (ii) under Section 3.3, Purchaser shall receive a credit against the cash portion of the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the balance of the reserve for replacements account and residual receipts account, and Seller shall retain its entire right, title and interest in and to all the Property Accounts. In the event Purchaser takes assignment of escrow accounts for taxes, insurance and mortgage insurance, such amounts shall offset amounts otherwise owing from Seller to Purchaser pursuant to the prorations of taxes, insurance and mortgage insurance provided for in Article VI and if the amounts in such escrow accounts for taxes, insurance and mortgage insurance are in excess of such prorations, such excess amount shall be paid by Purchaser in cash at Closing as provided in Section 6.2. 6.2 If such prorations result in a payment due Purchaser, then the cash portion of the Purchase Price payable at Closing shall be reduced by such sum. If such prorations result in a payment due Seller, then the same shall be paid to Seller in addition to the cash portion of the Purchase Price payable at Closing. The parties hereto shall endeavor to prepare a schedule of prorations no less than two (2) days prior to Closing. The parties hereto shall correct any errors in prorations as soon after the Closing as amounts are finally determined. VII. CLOSING 7.1 The closing of the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement (the "Closing") shall occur on or before the date that is thirty (30) days after the date upon which all conditions to closing are satisfied, including, without limitation, the issuance by HUD of all HUD Approvals (the "Closing Date"). The Closing shall be held at the offices of Baker & Hostetler LLP, or at such other location as may be mutually agreed upon between the parties. 7.2 If the Closing has not occurred on or before July 31, 2006 (the "Termination Date"), this Agreement may be terminated by either party (provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this clause shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation of this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement to have occurred on or before the aforesaid date). In the event of termination of this Agreement by either party pursuant to this Section 7.2, notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the non-terminating party, and this Agreement shall terminate without any further action by any of the parties hereto, except as otherwise provided herein.

As such, all costs and expenses related to the transactions contemplated hereby shall be borne by Purchaser; provided, however, that if the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement is terminated by either Seller or Purchaser as a result of the other party's default hereunder, the defaulting party shall pay all of the Title Company's fees as escrow agent, if any. XI. RISK OF LOSS 11.1 The risk of loss or damage to the Property by fire, earthquake, or other casualty shall be borne by Seller until the Closing Date. If damage, loss or destruction of the Property or any part thereof, by fire, earthquake, or other casualty, occurs prior to the Closing, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser of such damage, loss or destruction. 11.2 If the Property is damaged by fire, earthquake, or other casualty, and the damage, loss or destruction shall cost less than One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) to repair, based upon the determination of a contractor acceptable to Seller and Purchaser, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, then Purchaser shall close the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement with a credit against the cash portion of the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the amount of the applicable insurance deductibles, and Seller shall assign to Purchaser: (a) Seller's rights to any payments which may be payable subsequent to the Closing Date under any applicable hazard or other insurance policy or policies in effect with respect to the Property and to all of Seller's rights and interests in and to the corresponding claims, and (b) Seller's rights to payments with respect to rents due subsequent to the Closing Date under any rental insurance policy or policies with respect to the Property; provided, however, Purchaser shall have the right, as its sole remedy (except as to such obligations as are expressly set forth in this Agreement as surviving a termination thereof), to elect to terminate this Agreement if, as a result of such damage by fire, earthquake, or other casualty: (i) the Property may not, as a matter of applicable law, be rebuilt as it currently exists, or (ii) access to the Property from a publicly dedicated street is prevented; or (iii) Purchaser determines that available insurance proceeds will not be adequate to cover all damages; and if Purchaser so elects, this Agreement shall be terminated and the parties hereto shall be relieved of all further obligations and liability under this Agreement, other than those that are expressly stated to survive the termination of this Agreement. Purchaser shall make its determination whether to terminate this Agreement as permitted under this Section 11.2 on or before the date that is the later of: (x) sixty (60) days after the fire, earthquake, or other casualty; or (y) fifteen (15) business days after Seller delivers to Purchaser both the contractor's determination of the cost to repair the damage and the insurer's proposed amount of insurance proceeds to be made available therefore. 11.3 If the Property is damaged by fire, earthquake, or other casualty and the damage, loss or destruction shall cost One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) or more to repair, based upon the determination of a contractor acceptable to Seller and Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, then Seller shall, promptly after Purchaser's request therefor, deliver to Purchaser a copy of each of the applicable insurance policies covering such fire, earthquake, or other casualty, and Purchaser shall, as its sole remedy (except as to such obligations as are expressly set forth in this Agreement as surviving a termination thereof), elect one of the following options: 11.3.1 To terminate this Agreement, in which event the parties hereto shall be relieved of all further obligations and liability under this Agreement (other than those that are expressly stated to survive the termination of this Agreement); or 11.3.2 To proceed with the Closing and receive (i) a credit against the cash balance of the Purchase Price payable at Closing to the extent of payments received by or on behalf of Seller prior to the Closing Date under any applicable hazard or other insurance policy or policies in effect with respect to the Property, (ii) an assignment of Seller's rights to any payments which may be payable subsequent to the Closing Date under any applicable hazard or other insurance policy or policies in effect with respect to the Property and to all of Seller's rights and interests in and to the corresponding claims, (iii) an assignment of Seller's rights to payments with respect to rents due subsequent to the Closing Date under any rental insurance policy or policies with respect to the Property, and (iv) a credit against the cash balance of the Purchase Price payable at the Closing in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the deductibles with respect to all such hazard insurance policies. If Purchaser elects to exercise the option set forth in this Section 11.3.2 hereof, then prior to the Closing, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate to adjust, compromise and settle with the insurance company(s) with respect to the insurance policies. 11.3.3 Purchaser shall make its determination whether to terminate this Agreement as permitted under this Section 11.3 on or before the date that is the later of: (x) sixty (60) days after the fire, earthquake, or other casualty; or (y) fifteen (15) business days after Seller delivers to Purchaser both the contractor's determination of the cost to repair the damage and the insurer's proposed amount of insurance proceeds to be made available therefore. 11.4 If, prior to Closing, any governmental authority or other entity having condemnation authority shall institute an eminent domain proceeding or take any steps preliminary thereto (including the giving of any direct or indirect notice of intent to institute such proceedings) with regard to the Land or Improvements, and the same is not dismissed in a final determination for which all appeal periods have passed on or before ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date set forth in this Agreement, then Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser thereof and Purchaser shall, as its sole remedy (except as to such obligations as are expressly set forth in this Agreement as surviving a termination thereof), be entitled to terminate this Agreement in which event, the provisions of Section 11.3.1 hereof shall be applicable. XII. TERMINATION AND REMEDIES 12.1 In the event of Seller's failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder or if any of the representations and warranties made herein by Seller are untrue, in any material respects, or materially misleading (each event referred to in the foregoing provisions of this sentence is herein sometimes called a "Seller Default"), Purchaser shall have the right: (i) to terminate this Agreement by giving notice thereof to Seller; and (ii) to sue Seller for specific performance of its obligations under this Agreement; and/or (iii) to exercise any and all other remedies available to Purchaser under this Agreement, at law, or in equity. All of Purchaser's rights and remedies shall be cumulative and nonexclusive. The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing. 12.2 If the purchase and sale which is the subject of this Agreement is not consummated solely as a result of Purchaser's default under this Agreement, Purchaser, for itself and its successors and assigns, will forbear from the exercise of its remedies under the Soft Notes and any agreements, instruments, mortgages or other documents securing the indebtedness evidenced thereby on account of any payment default thereunder for a period ending on the date that is five (5) years after the stated maturity date of the Soft Notes. Such remedy shall be the sole and exclusive relief to which Seller might otherwise be entitled, as a result of Purchaser's default under this Agreement, Seller hereby specifically waiving any and all rights which it may have to damages or specific performance as a result of Purchaser's default under this Agreement.
