Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.


Consolidated Capital Institutional Properties/3, a California limited partnership (the “Registrant”), owns a 100% interest in Park Capitol Apartments (“Park Capitol”), a 135-unit apartment complex located in Salt Lake City, Utah.  On March 10, 2008, the Registrant and three other partnerships (together the “Selling Partnerships”) that own four apartment complexes containing an aggregate of 1,511 units entered into a Purchase and Sale Contract (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a third party, Jackson Square Properties, LLC, a California limited liability company (the “Purchaser”), to sell four apartment complexes (together the “Properties” and individually a “Property”) owned by the Selling Partnerships to the Purchaser for a total sales price of $128,500,000, $12,750,000 of which will be allocated to Park Capitol. Each of the Selling Partnerships is affiliated with AIMCO Proper ties, L.P., an affiliate of the General Partner of the Registrant.


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


PURCHASE PRICE.  The total purchase price is $128,500,000, $12,750,000 of which will be allocated to Park Capitol, subject to certain prorations and adjustments at the closing.  The Purchaser delivered an initial deposit of $1,000,000, of which the Registrant is allocated approximately $99,000. Upon termination of the feasibility period, the Purchaser will deliver an additional deposit of $1,000,000, of which the Registrant will be allocated approximately $99,000. If the Purchaser fails to notify the Selling Partnerships in writing of its intent to terminate the contract prior to the end of the feasibility period, the two deposits will be become non-refundable.


CLOSING.  The expected closing date of the transaction is April 30, 2008. The Selling Partnerships have the right to extend the closing for up to forty-five days by delivering written notice to the Purchaser. The closing is also subject to customary closing conditions and deliveries.


COSTS AND FEES.  With respect to Park Capitol, the Purchaser will pay recording costs, any premiums or fees required to be paid by the Purchaser with respect to the title policy and one-half of the customary closing costs. The Registrant will pay the base premium for its title policy and one-half of the customary closing costs.  


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


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


ASSIGNMENT.  With the exception of an assignment to an affiliate of the Purchaser, the Purchase Agreement is not assignable by the Purchaser without the prior written approval of the Selling Partnerships.


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


If the Selling Partnerships, prior to the closing, default in their representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations then 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 per Property or (ii) seeking specific performance of each of the Selling Partnerships’ obligation to deliver the deed for such Selling Partnership’s Property pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and, if requested by a Seller (in such Seller's sole discretion), defend (with counsel approved by such Seller) such Seller, together with such Seller's affiliates, parent and subsidiary entities, successors, assigns, partners, managers, members, employees, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, counsel, representatives, agents, Property Manager, Regional Property Manager, and AIMCO (collectively, including such Seller, "Seller's Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all damages, mechanics' liens, liabilities, penalties, interest, losses, demands, actions, causes of action, claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, including the cost of in-house counsel and appeals) (collectively, "Losses") arising from or related to Purchaser's or its Consultants' entry onto such Seller's Property, and any Inspections or other matters performed by Purchaser or Purchaser's Con sultants with respect to such Property during the Feasibility Period or otherwise (but excluding any liability arising out of the discovery of any hazardous materials or other substances as long as Purchaser immediately stops all work upon discovery of such substances and immediately notifies the applicable Seller). Purchaser shall, however, not be liable for any damages incurred by Sellers resulting from the mere discovery by Purchaser of a pre-existing condition at or with regard to a Property; provided, however, that, if Purchaser proceeds with acquisition of the Properties after the expiration of the Feasibility Period, Purchaser shall accept the Properties with such pre-existing conditions and assume any liabilities associated therewith.

3.4.2. Notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be permitted to perform any invasive tests on any Property without Seller's Representative's prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Seller's Representative's sole discretion. Further, Seller's Representative shall have the right, without limitation, to disapprove any and all entries, surveys, tests (including, without limitation, a Phase II environmental study of its Property), investigations and other matters that in such Seller's Representative's reasonable judgment could result in any injury to its Property or breach of any contract, or expose the applicable Seller to any Losses or violation of applicable law, or otherwise adversely affect such Property or such Seller's interest therein; provided, however, if a Seller disapproves any such investigation, such Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for Purchaser's reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred up to the time of such disapp roval (but not to exceed $50,000). 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's Representative to any such activity shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the applicable Seller or assumption of liability or risk by such Seller. Purchaser hereby agrees to restore, at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, each Property to the same condition existing inunediately prior to Purchaser's exercise of its rights pursuant to this Article III. Purchaser shall maintain and cause its third party consultants to 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 $500,000.00 with respect to property damage, by water or otherwise, and (b) worker's compensation insurance for all of their respective employees in accorda nce with the law of the commonwealth or state in which the Properties are located.

Prior to the Effective Date, and to the extent the same exist and are in a Seller's possession or reasonable control (subject to Section 3.5.2), each Seller delivered to Purchaser the documents set forth on Schedule 3.5 (together with any other documents or information provided by Sellers or their agents to Purchaser with respect to the Property, the "Materials") relating to its Property. In the alternative, at a Seller's option and within the foregoing 5-day period, such Seller may make the same available to Purchaser on a secure website (Purchaser agrees that any item to be delivered by a Seller under this Contract shall be deemed delivered to the extent available to Purchaser on such secured web site). To the extent that Purchaser determines that any of the Materials have not been made available or delivered to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 3.5.1, Purchaser shall notify the applicable Seller and such Seller shall use commercial ly reasonable efforts to deliver the same to Purchaser within 5 Business Days after such notification is received by such Seller; provided, however, that under no circumstances will the Feasibility Period be extended and Purchaser's sole remedy will be to terminate this Contract pursuant to Section 3.2.

3.5.2. In providing such information and Materials to Purchaser, other than Seller's Representations, each Seller makes no representation or warranty, express, written, oral, statutory, or implied, and all such representations and warranties are hereby expressly excluded and disclaimed. Any information and Materials provided by Sellers to Purchaser under the terms of this Contract are for informational purposes only and, together with all Third-Party Reports, shall be returned by Purchaser to all applicable Sellers as a condition to return of any portion of the Deposit to Purchaser (if Purchaser is otherwise entitled to such Deposit pursuant to the terms of this Contract) if this Contract is terminated for any reason. Purchaser shall not in any way be entitled to rely upon the accuracy of such information and Materials. Purchaser recognizes and agrees that the Materials and other documents and information delivered or made available by Sellers pursuant to this Contract may not be complete or c onstitute all of such documents which are in a Seller's possession or control, but are those that are readily available to such Seller after reasonable inquiry to ascertain their availability. Purchaser understands that, although each Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to locate and make available the Materials and other documents required to be delivered or made available by Sellers pursuant to this Contract, Purchaser will not rely on such Materials or other documents as being a complete and accurate source of information with respect to the Properties and will instead in all instances rely exclusively on its own Inspections and Consultants and Sellers' representations and warranties expressly contained herein with respect to all matters which it deems relevant to its decision to acquire, own and operate the Properties.

3.5.3. In addition to the items set forth on Schedule 3.5, prior to the Effective Date, each Seller delivered to Purchaser (or otherwise made available to Purchaser as provided under Section 3.5.1) the most recent rent roll for the applicable Property listing the move-in date, monthly base rent payable, lease expiration date and unapplied security deposit for each Lease (the "Rent Rolls").

In addition to the items set forth on Schedule 3.5, prior to the Effective Date, each Seller delivered to Purchaser (or otherwise made available to Purchaser as provided under Section 3.5.1) a list of all current Property Contracts for the applicable Property (the "Property Contracts Lists").

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

 3.6. Property Contracts. On or before the expiration of the Feasibility Period, Purchaser may deliver written notice to Seller's Representative (the "Property Contracts Notice") specifying any Property Contracts which Purchaser desires to terminate at the Closing (the "Terminated Contracts"); provided that (a) the effective date of such termination on or after Closing shall be subject to the express terms of such Terminated Contracts, (b) if any such Property Contract cannot by its terms be terminated at Closing, it shall be assumed by Purchaser and not be a Terminated Contract, and (c) to the extent that any such Terminated Contract requires payment of a penalty or premium for cancellation, Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the payment of any such cancellation fees or penalties. If Purchaser fails to deliver the Property Contracts Notice to Seller's Representative on or before the expiration of the Feasibility Period, there shall be no Terminated Contracts with respect to such Seller (or its Property) and Purchaser shall assume all Property Contracts of such Seller at the Closing. To the extent that any Property Contract to be assigned to Purchaser requires vendor consent, then, prior to the Closing, Purchaser may attempt to obtain from each applicable vendor a consent (each a "Required Assignment Consent") to such assignment. Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and, if requested by the applicable Seller (in such Seller's sole discretion), defend (with counsel approved by such Seller) such Seller's Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Losses arising from or related to Purchaser's failure to obtain any Required Assignment Consent.

On or before 2 Business Days prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Period (the "Response Deadline"), a Seller who has received an Objection Notice may, in such Seller's sole discretion, give Purchaser notice (the "Response Notice") of those Objections which such Seller is willing to cure, if any. Sellers shall be entitled to reasonable adjournments of the Closing Date to cure any Objections applicable to any Seller. If a Seller fails to deliver a Response Notice by the Response Deadline, such Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure or otherwise resolve any matter set forth in the Objection Notice.

If Purchaser fails to give notice to terminate this Contract on or before the Final Response Deadline, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waived any objections to any matters covered by the Title Documents or the Survey, subject only to resolution, if any, of the Objections as set forth in a Response Notice (or if no such Response Notice is tendered, without any resolution of the Objections).

4.4. Permitted Exceptions. The Deed for each Property delivered pursuant to this Contract shall be subject to the following, all of which shall be deemed "Permitted Exceptions":

It is understood and agreed that, whether or not Purchaser gives an Objection Notice with respect thereto, any deeds of trust and/or mortgages (including any and all mortgages which secure a Note) against a Property (collectively, a "Deed of Trust") shall not be deemed Permitted Exceptions for such Property, whether Purchaser gives further written notice of such or not, and shall be paid off, satisfied, discharged, reconveyed and/or cured by Sellers at Closing, subject to the provisions of Section 2.2.

 4.6. Subsequently Disclosed Exceptions. If at any time after the Objection Deadline, an update to any Title Commitment discloses any additional item that materially adversely affects title to the applicable Property which was not disclosed on any version of 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's Representative in writing of Purchaser's approval or disapproval of the New Exception. If Purchaser disapproves of the New Exception, the applicable Seller may, in that Seller's sole discretion, notify Purchaser as to whether it is willing to cure the New Exception. If such Seller elects to cure the New Exception, that Seller shall be entitled to reasonable adjournments of the Closing Date to cure the New Exception. If such Seller fails to deliver a notice to Purchaser within 3 days after the expiration of the New Exception Review Period, that Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the New Exception. If Purchaser is dissatisfied with such Seller's response, or lack thereof, Purchaser may, as its exclusive remedy elect either: (i) to terminate this Contract by notice to Seller's Representative, in which event the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser or (ii) to 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 the Seller's Representative of its election to terminate this Contract in accordance with the foregoing clause within 6 days after the expiration of the New Exception Review Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably waive any objections to the New Exception.

Within 5 calendar days after the Effective Date, Sellers agree to deliver or make available to Purchaser as part of the Materials, copies of the HAP Contracts which are in Sellers' possession or reasonable control (subject to Section 3.5.2). At Closing, Purchaser either (a) shall assume all obligations under the HAP Contracts and accept title to the Properties subject to the same, or (b) the existing HAP Contracts shall be terminated, and Purchaser shall enter into replacement Housing Assistance Payment contracts which are acceptable to the Housing Authority (either (a) or (b) meaning the "HAP Assumption"). No later than 15 days after the Effective Date, Purchaser, at its sole cost and expense, shall submit all applications, documents, information, materials, and fees to the Housing Authority, required in order for the Housing Authority to approve Purchaser's request for pre-approval as an entity qualified to assume the HAP Contracts, and shall diligently proceed using its best efforts to obtain such pre-approval as soon as possible. Purchaser agrees to provide Seller's Representative with copies of such applications no later than 5 Business Days after submittal thereof to the Housing Authority. Purchaser shall make such filings with the Housing Authority, deliver such documents, pay such fees and costs (if any), and pay such reserves, impounds, escrows and other amounts (if any) post-Closing as required by the Housing Authority with respect to the HAP Contracts (which may in clude, but not be limited to, a change in ownership form, name of the new owner, name of the property manager, evidence that title to the applicable Property has transferred and an IRS form W-9).

Each Seller shall prepare a proration schedule (the "Proration Schedule") of the adjustments described in this Section 5.4 prior to Closing. Such adjustments shall be paid by Purchaser to Sellers (if the prorations result in a net credit to Sellers) or by Sellers to Purchaser (if the prorations result in a net credit to Purchaser), by increasing or reducing the cash to be paid by Purchaser at Closing.

5.4.2. Operating Expenses. With respect to each Property, all of the operating, maintenance, taxes (other than real estate taxes), and other expenses incurred in operating such Property that such Seller customarily pays, and any other costs incurred in the ordinary course of business for the management and operation of such Property, shall be prorated on an accrual basis.

Purchaser shall receive all collected rent and income attributable to dates from and after the Closing Date. Each Seller shall receive all collected rent and income attributable to dates prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no prorations shall be made in relation to either (a) non-delinquent rents which have not been collected as of the Closing Date, or (b) delinquent rents existing, if any, as of the Closing Date (the foregoing (a) and (b) referred to herein as the "Uncollected Rents"). In adjusting for Uncollected Rents, no adjustments shall be made in a SelIer's favor for rents which h ave accrued and are unpaid as of the Closing, but Purchaser shall pay to such Seller such accrued Uncollected Rents as and when collected by Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to bill Tenants of the Properties for all Uncollected Rents and to take reasonable actions to collect Uncollected Rents. 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, each Seller shall continue to have the right, but not the obligation, in its own name, to demand payment of and to collect Uncollected Rents owed to such Seller by any Tenant, which right shall include, without limitation, the right to continue or commence legal actions or proceedings against any Tenant and the delivery of the Leases Assignment shall not constitute a waiver by any Seller of such right; pro vided however, that the foregoing right of each Seller shall be limited to actions seeking monetary damages and, in no event, shall any Seller seek to evict any Tenants in any action to collect Uncollected Rents. Purchaser agrees to cooperate with each Seller in connection with all efforts by such Seller to collect such Uncollected Rents and to take all steps, whether before or after the Closing Date, as may be necessary to carry out the intention of the foregoing, including, without limitation, the delivery to each Seller, within 7 days after a written request, of any relevant books and records (including, without limitation, rent statements, receipted bills and copies of tenant checks used in payment of such rent), the execution of any and all consents or other documents, and the undertaking of any act reasonably necessary for the collection . of such Uncollected Rents by such Seller; provided, however, that Purchaser's obligation to cooperate with a Seller pursuant to this sentence shall not obligate Purc haser to terminate any Tenant Lease with an existing Tenant or evict any existing Tenant from a Property, nor shall a Seller have the right to seek to terminate any Tenant Lease or evict any existing Tenant.

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

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

5.4.7. [Intentionally left blank]

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 Properties 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. Each Seller's and each Seller's manager's on-site employees shall have their employment at the applicable Property terminated as of the Closing Date, and, in connection therewith, any below market rate Leases with such manager or on-site employees shall terminate no later than 7 days after such termination of employment.

5.4.10. Closing Costs. With respect to each Property, Purchaser shall pay the cost of recording any instruments required to discharge any liens or encumbrances against such Property, any premiums or fees required to be paid by Purchaser with respect to the applicable Title Policy pursuant to Section 4.1, and one-half of the customary closing costs of the Escrow Agent.

Any closing costs not specifically allocated herein shall be allocated between each Seller and Purchaser in a manner customary in the county in which each Property is located.

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

5.4.12. Possession. Possession of each 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 each Seller, originals or copies of its Leases and Property Contracts, lease files, warranties, guaranties, operating manuals, keys to the property, and such Seller's books and records relating to its Property to be conveyed by such Seller (other than proprietary information) (collectively, "Seller's Property-Related Files and Records") regarding the applicable Property shall be made available to Purchaser at such Property after the Closing. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, prior to Closing and at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, Purchaser shall make copies (including, at Sellers' discretion, CD copies) of those portions of Seller's Property Related Files and Records as may be requested by Sellers and shall deliver such copies to Sellers on or prior to the Closing Date. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that such copies may be retained by Sellers from and after the Closing. The conditions and restrictions on Purchaser's investigations and entry upon each of the Properties set forth in Article 3, and Purchaser's indemnity obligations, shall also apply to the copying of Seller's Property Related Files and Records pursuant to this Section 5.4.12. Purchaser agrees that it shall coordinate with the Regional Property Manager for each Property prior to the entry of Purchaser or Purchaser's agents onto a Property in connection with such copying, and will insure that the Regional Property Manager (or a designee or designees of the Regional Property Manager) is present at all times during and as a pre-condition to the entry or presence of Purchaser or Purchaser's agents on a Property in connection with such copying.

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

5.5. Post Closing Adjustments. In general, and except as provided in this Contract or the Closing Documents, Sellers shall be entitled to all income, and shall pay all expenses, relating to the operation of the Properties for the period prior to the Closing Date and Purchaser shall be entitled to all income, and shall pay all expenses, relating to the operation of the Properties for the period commencing on and after the Closing Date.

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

10.1. Purchaser Default. If Purchaser defaults in its obligations hereunder to (a) deliver the Initial Deposit or Additional Deposit (or any other deposit or payment required of Purchaser hereunder), (b) deliver to Sellers the deliveries specified under Section 5.3 on the date required thereunder, or (c) deliver the Purchase Price for each Property at the time required by Section 2.2.4 and close on the purchase of the Properties on the Closing Date, then, immediately

and without notice or cure, Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Applicable Share of the Deposit to each Seller, and neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the Properties. If, Purchaser defaults in any of its other representations, warranties or obligations under this Contract, and such default continues for more than 10 days after written notice from Seller's Representative, then Purchaser shall forfeit the Deposit, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Applicable Share of the Deposit to each Seller, and neither party shall be obligated to proceed with the purchase and sale of the Property. The Deposit is liquidated damages and recourse to the Deposit is, except for Purchaser's indemnity and confidentiality obligations hereunder, Sellers' sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity for Purchaser's failure to perform its obligation to purchase the Properties or breach of a representation or warranty. Sellers expressly waive the remedies of specific performance and additional damages for such default by Purchaser. SELLERS AND PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELLERS' DAMAGES WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE, AND THAT THE DEPOSIT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SELLERS' DAMAGES RESULTING FROM A DEFAULT BY PURCHASER IN ITS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTY. SELLERS AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 10.1 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES LIQUIDATE THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE SELLERS, AND SHALL BE SELLERS' EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST PURCHASER, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY PURCHASER OF ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS CONTRACT, OTHER THAN WITH RESPECT TO PURCHASER'S INDEMNITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

10.2. Seller Default. If a Seller, prior to the Closing, defaults in its representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations under this Contract, including to sell its Property as required by this Contract and such default continues for more than 10 days after written notice from Purchaser, then, at Purchaser's election and as Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy, 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 (subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third Party Reports and information and Materials provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Deposit) 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 transa ction, which damages shall not exceed $50,000 per terminated Property, or (B) Purchaser may seek specific performance of defaulting Seller's obligation to deliver the Deed pursuant to this Contract (but not damages). Purchaser agrees that it shall promptly deliver to each Seller an assignment of all of Purchaser's right, title and interest in and to (together with possession of) all plans, studies, surveys, reports, and other materials paid for with the out-of-pocket expenses reimbursed by Sellers pursuant to the foregoing sentence. SELLERS AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 10.2 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE PURCHASER AND THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO PURCHASER FOR A DEFAULT BY SELLER PRIOR TO CLOSING, AND SHALL BE PURCHASER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST SELLERS, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY ANY SELLER OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, OR COVENANTS PRIOR TO CLOSING OR ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS CONTRACT. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES, WHETHER BEFORE OR AFTER CLOSING, MAY PURCHASER SEEK OR BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, SPECULATIVE OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, ALL OF WHICH PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES, FROM SELLERS FOR ANY BREACH BY A SELLER, OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR COVENANTS OR ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS CONTRACT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT, TO THE EXTENT INCLUDED WITHIN THE LIMIT ON DAMAGES RECOVERABLE UNDER THE LIABILITY CAP STATED IN SECTION 6.3, PURCHASER MAY, DURING THE SURVIVAL PERIOD, SEEK TO PROVE AND RECOVER INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL AND SPECIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM A BREACH OF SELLER'S REPRESENTATIONS. PURCHASER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO FILE ANY LIS PENDENS OR ANY LIEN AGAINST ANY PROPERTY UNLESS AND UNTIL IT HAS IRREVOCABLY ELECTED TO SEEK SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OF THIS CONTRACT AND HAS FILED AN ACTION SEEKING SUCH REMEDY. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 10.2 SHALL LIMIT PURCHASER'S REMEDIES UNDER SECTION 6.3 ABOVE.

ARTICLE XI

RISK OF LOSS OR CASUALTY

11.1. Major Damage. If a Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to Closing, and the cost of repair is more than $250,000, then the applicable Seller shall have no obligation to repair such damage or destruction and shall notify Purchaser in writing of such damage or destruction (the "Damage Notice"). Within 10 days after Purchaser's receipt of the Damage Notice, Purchaser may elect at its option to terminate this Contract in its entirety with respect to all Properties (but not in part with respect to less than all Properties) by delivering written notice to Seller's Representative. In the event Purchaser fails to terminate this Contract within the foregoing 10-day period, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of this Contract for the full Purchase Price notwithstanding any such damage or destruction, and Purchaser shall, at Closing, execute and deliver an assignment and assumption (in a form reasonably requ ired by the applicable Seller) of such Seller's rights and obligations with respect to the insurance claim and related to such casualty, and thereafter Purchaser shall receive all remaining insurance proceeds pertaining to such claim (plus a credit against the applicable Purchase Price at Closing in the amount of any deductible payable by the applicable Seller in connection therewith and not spent by such Seller for demolition, site cleaning, restoration or other repairs). If this Contract is terminated from such damage, Purchaser shall recover the Deposit.

11.2. Minor Damage. If a Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing, and the cost of repair is less than $250,000, this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of this Contract, notwithstanding the damage or destruction; provided, however, the applicable Seller shall make such repairs to the extent of any recovery from insurance carried on such Property if such repairs can be reasonably effected before the Closing. Subject to Section 11.3, if the applicable Seller is unable to effect such repairs, then Purchaser shall receive all insurance proceeds pertaining thereto (plus a credit against the Purchase Price for the damaged Property in the amount of any deductible payable by the applicable Seller in connection therewith and not spent by such Seller for demolition, site cleaning, restoration or other repairs) at Closing.

11.3. Repairs. To the extent that a Seller elects to commence any repair, replacement or restoration of its damaged Property prior to Closing, then such Seller shall be entitled to receive and apply available insurance proceeds to any portion of such repair, replacement or restoration completed or installed prior to Closing, with Purchaser being responsible for completion of such repair, replacement or restoration after Closing from the balance of any available insurance proceeds. To the extent that any repair, replacement or restoration of a casualty has been commenced by the applicable Seller prior to Closing, then the Property Contracts for such Property shall include, and Purchaser shall assume at Closing, all construction and other contracts entered into by such Seller in connection with such repair, replacement or restoration. The provisions of this Section 11.3 shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Deeds to Purchaser.

ARTICLE XII
EMINENT DOMAIN

12.1. Eminent Domain. If, at the time of Closing, any material part of a Property is (or previously has been) acquired, or is about to be acquired, by any governmental agency by the powers of eminent domain or transfer in lieu thereof (or in the event that at such time there is any notice of any such acquisition or intent to acquire by any such governmental agency), Purchaser shall have the right, at Purchaser's option, to terminate this Contract in its entirety with respect to all Properties (but not in part with respect to less than all Properties) by giving written notice within 10 days after Purchaser's receipt from Seller's Representative of notice of the occurrence of such event, and if Purchaser so terminates this Contract shall recover the Deposit hereunder (subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third Party Reports and information and Materials provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Deposit). If Purchaser fails t o 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 a Property.

ARTICLE XIII

13.3. Assignability. This Contract is not assignable by Purchaser without first obtaining the prior written approval of the Seller's Representative, except that Purchaser may assign this Contract, without first obtaining the prior written approval of the Seller's Representative, to one or more entities so long as (a) Purchaser is an affiliate of the purchasing entity(ies), (b) Purchaser is not released from its liability hereunder, and (c) Purchaser provides written notice to Seller's Representative of any proposed assignment no later than 10 days prior to the Closing Date.

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

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

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

13.29. Multiple Purchasers. As used in this Contract, the term "Purchaser" means all entities acquiring any interest in any Properties at the Closing, including, without limitation, any assignee(s) of the original Purchaser pursuant to Section 13.3 of this Contract.

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

13.31. Obligation to Close on all Properties. Except as expressly set forth in this Contract, Purchaser's obligation to purchase the Properties is not severable and Purchaser must purchase all of the Properties. Similarly, except as expressly stated this Contract, Sellers' obligations to sell the Properties are not severable and Sellers must sell all of the Properties to Purchaser.

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

14.2. [Intentionally left blank]

14.3. Consent Agreement - Pre-1978 Certified. The provisions of this Section 14.3 apply to those Properties identified on the Seller Information Schedule as "Pre-1978-Certified." Testing has been performed at each Property identified as "Pre-1978, Certified" with respect to lead-based paint. The "LBP Consultant" identified on the Seller Information Schedule prepared the Report with respect to the Property identified therein. A copy of each report will be provided to Purchaser with the Materials. Each Report certifies the respective Property as lead based paint free. By execution hereof, Purchaser acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Reports, the Lead-Based Paint Disclosure Statement attached hereto as Exhibit H, and acknowledges receipt of the Consent Agreement. Because the applicable Property has been certified as lead based paint free, the applicable Seller is not required under the Consent Agreement (the "Consent A greement") 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) to remediate or abate any lead-based paint condition at its Property prior to the Closing.
