obligation of Seller.

Real Property or any part thereof outstanding as of Closing which could
give rise to a lien on or claim against or affecting the Real Property
or any part thereof.

actual knowledge of, any attachments, executions, assignments for the
benefit of creditors or voluntary or involuntary proceedings in
bankruptcy or under any other debtor relief laws contemplated by or
pending or threatened against Seller or the Real Property or any part
thereof.
5
(h) The matters set out in the rent roll attached hereto as
Exhibit I are true and correct and are not misleading. The rent roll
identifies all deposits made by, or credit for which is owed to, any
tenant under any Tenant Lease except to the extent (if any) expressly
stated on the rent roll. Each Tenant Lease identified or referred to
therein is in full force and effect. Except as disclosed on Schedule

alleging a default by Seller or the landlord, and Seller has no actual
knowledge of any default by or unperformed obligation of the landlord,
under any of the Tenant Leases, and, to the best of Seller's knowledge,
no tenant under any of the Tenant Leases is in default thereunder.
(i) Seller is the fee simple owner of the Real Property and
the Improvements, subject to no restrictions, covenants, conditions,
liens, claims, encumbrances, reservations, easements or other
exceptions to title other than the Permitted Exceptions.
(j) Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.1(j) hereof Seller has
not received written notice of, and has no actual knowledge of, any
existing condition with respect to the Real Property or Improvements
(or any part thereof) or its operation which violates any law,
ordinance, code, regulation or court or administrative order.
(k) Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.1(k) hereof, Seller has
not received written notice, and Seller has no actual knowledge that
the Real Property or the Improvements or any part thereof is being used
for the storage or disposal of any hazardous or toxic materials or that
any such materials are present on, under or in, or were released or
discharged from, the Real Property or the Improvements in violation of
applicable laws. To Seller's actual knowledge, no hazardous or toxic
materials now are or ever were placed or situated on, under or in, or
were released or discharged from, the Real Property or the
Improvements.
(l) No portion of the Real Property or the Improvements
constitutes "plan assets" of any "employee benefit plan" as defined in
Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended, or any "plan" as defined in Section 4975(e)(2) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
(m) The data and information contained in each of the
financial statements and operating reports relating to the Real
Property and Improvements (or any part or parts thereof) hereto
furnished by Seller to Purchaser are true and correct and are not
misleading and do not omit any material information.
Seller shall promptly advise Purchaser in writing if any
representation or warranty contained in this Section 5.1 becomes false or
misleading prior to the Closing; provided, however, that the delivery of such
notification shall not waive, limit, diminish or affect the right of Purchaser
to object thereto (or except as expressly provided in this grammatical
paragraph) any right or remedy of Purchaser relating thereto. As a condition
precedent to Purchaser's obligations hereunder, the representations and
warranties contained in this Section 5.1 shall be true and correct on the
Closing Date. However, in the event of a breach hereof by Seller or in the
event Seller has given Purchaser written notice of a material change in any
matter made the subject of the foregoing representations and warranties,
Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy prior to Closing will be to (i) waive the
default by Seller and close the transaction contemplated hereby, without any
reduction in the
6
Purchase Price, or (b) terminate this Agreement. To the extent Purchaser has
received written notice from Seller at or prior to Closing, that any one or more
of the foregoing representations and warranties are not true and correct (the
"Waived Representation(s)"), and Purchaser consummates the transaction
contemplated hereby, Purchaser waives any claims against Seller for a breach of
a Waived Representation. Purchaser's right to bring a claim against Seller for
breach of any representations and warranties contained herein shall survive
until one (1) year after the Closing.
Section 5.2. From the Effective Date until the Closing Date or
earlier termination of this Agreement, Seller shall:
(a) Operate the Real Property and Improvements, and
continue its marketing and leasing efforts, in the same manner as
heretofore, and use reasonable efforts to preserve for the benefit of
Purchaser the Tenant Leases and the relationships of Seller and its
tenants.
(b) Keep, maintain and repair the Real Property and
Improvements in a good, safe, neat, clean and presentable condition,
and comply in all material respects with all laws, ordinances,
regulations, licenses, permits and court or governmental orders
affecting the Property.
(c) Keep, observe and perform its obligations as landlord
under the Tenant Leases, and as long as tenants are not in default
thereunder, not cause the termination of any Tenant Lease nor alter,
amend or otherwise modify or supplement any Tenant Lease without the
prior written consent of Purchaser.
(d) Not enter into any written or oral service contract or
other agreement with respect to the Property that will not be fully
performed on or before Closing, or that will not be cancelable by
Purchaser with thirty (30) days notice without liability on or after
Closing without the prior written consent of Purchaser.
(e) Promptly advise Purchaser of any pending or threatened
litigation, arbitration, administrative hearing or legislation before
any governmental body or agency, or any tax increase or assessment, of
which Seller becomes aware, that concerns or could affect the Property
or any part thereof.
(f) Not take or omit to take any action which would have the
effect of violating any of the representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements of Seller contained herein.
(g) Not further encumber or allow the encumbrance of the
title to the Property, or modify the terms or conditions of any
existing encumbrances (other than Tenant Leases), if any, which will
not be released at Closing, without in each case the prior written
consent of Purchaser.
Seller shall promptly advise Purchaser in writing if any covenant
contained in this Section 5.2 is breached prior to the Closing; provided,
however, that the delivery of such notification shall not waive, limit,
diminish or affect the right of Purchaser to object thereto or any right or
remedy of Purchaser relating thereto. As a condition precedent to Purchaser's
obligations hereunder, the
7
covenants contained in this Section 5.2 shall have been fully performed at all
times up to and including the Closing Date.
ARTICLE 6.
Inspection and Audit; Purchaser's "Due Diligence"
Section 6.1 The Seller agrees that from the Effective Date until
Closing, Purchaser, personally or through its authorized agents, designees or
representatives, shall be entitled to enter upon the Real Property and into the
Improvements to conduct such physical and environmental and other inspections,
independent appraisals, and other tests, examinations and studies of the
Property as Purchaser desires, (but only upon twenty-four (24) hours prior
notice to Seller), during business hours and provided that such inspections do
not interfere with rights of tenants under the Tenant Leases or Seller's
operation of the Property. Seller agrees to provide Purchaser with all access
described in this Section and to facilitate Purchaser's entry and conduct of
its inspections and tests. Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold Seller
harmless of and from any claim for physical damages or physical injuries
arising from Purchaser's inspection of the Property, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such obligation to indemnify shall
survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement.
Section 6.2 Seller agrees that all times until the Closing occurs,
promptly in response to Purchaser's reasonable request therefor Seller will make
available and deliver to Purchaser and Purchaser's agents, representatives and
designees all reports, financial statements, operating statements, contracts,
permits, licenses, Tenant Leases, records, files and writings of any and every
kind whatsoever that relate in any way directly or indirectly to the Property,
the Real Property, the Improvements, any part of any thereof, any or all of the
Tenant Leases, or the business or affairs of Seller.
Section 6.3 If Purchaser, in its sole and unreviewable discretion, is
not satisfied in any respect with any matter relating in any way directly or
indirectly to the Property or any component or aspect thereof, Purchaser may
give Seller a notice (a "Due Diligence Termination Notice") at any time before
the Closing terminating this Agreement, in which event this Agreement will be
terminated without liability of or to either party and neither party shall have
any further obligations hereunder other than those that expressly survive the
termination of this Agreement.

such delinquent rents; provided, however, that if Purchaser collects
after Closing any rents which are owing to the Seller by tenants of the
Property and specifically designated by the payor thereof for periods
prior to the Closing Date, and if at that time all other rents due or
payable from those tenants are fully and currently paid (Purchaser
shall be entitled to apply all rental payments to the latest period for
which rentals are due), Purchaser shall promptly remit to Seller that
portion of such rental payments as is allocable to the period before
the Closing. This provision shall not be deemed an obligation, express
or implied, by or on behalf of Purchaser to take any action to collect
such rents.
(b) Taxes, ad valorem, personal or otherwise, for the
Property for the current calendar year shall be prorated. The Seller's
pro rata portion of such taxes shall be based upon taxes actually
assessed for the current calendar year. If, for any reason, taxes for
the current calendar year have not been assessed on the Property such
proration shall be estimated based upon the most recently published tax
rate and valuation for the Property for calendar year in which the
Closing Date occurs, and adjusted within thirty (30) days following the
date when exact amounts are available and such adjustment provision
shall expressly survive the closing hereof.
(c) All other income and ordinary operating expenses for or
pertaining to the Property, public utility charges, maintenance,
service charges, and all other normal operating charges of the Property
shall be prorated.
In the event any adjustments pursuant to this Section 8.4 are,
subsequent to Closing, found to be erroneous, then either party hereto who is
entitled to additional monies shall invoice the other party for such additional
amounts as may be owing, and such amount (reduced by any monies due to the
other party) shall be paid within ten (10) days from receipt of the invoice.
This covenant shall survive the Closing of the sale contemplated hereby.
Section 8.5 Neither this Agreement, nor any of the rights and
obligations hereunder, may be assigned by Purchaser without Seller's prior
written consent, which may be withheld in Seller's sole and absolute
discretion. The preceding sentence shall not apply to, or reflect or limit in
any way, the admission of new or additional members into Purchaser.
Section 8.6 Exclusive possession of the Property shall be delivered
to Purchaser by Seller at the Closing, subject only to the rights of tenants
under the Tenant Leases and subject to the Permitted Exceptions.
Section 8.7 Seller shall pay for the Title Policy, the Survey, and
all transfer taxes relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. All other
costs and expenses (if any) in connection with the transaction contemplated by
this Agreement shall be borne by Seller and Purchaser in the manner in which
such costs and expenses are customarily allocated between the parties at
closings of multifamily residential real property similar to the Property in the
Las Vegas, Nevada area. Except as specifically provided in Section 10.5 hereof,
each party hereto shall pay its own attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in the
preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and the Closing of the transaction
contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE 9.
Remedies of Default
Section 9.1 In the event of Seller's default hereunder, Purchaser may
elect, at its option, as its sole and exclusive remedies, either to (a)
terminate this Agreement; or (b) if Seller's default arises out of its alleged
failure to perform its obligation to convey title on the Closing Date, enforce
specific performance hereunder against Seller.
Section 9.2 In the event that Seller is unable to consummate the sale
contemplated hereby due to a default by Purchaser, then, as Seller's sole and
exclusive remedy and relief, Seller shall be entitled to the Cash Payment as
liquidated damages for Purchaser's default. Such amount is agreed upon by and
between the Seller and the Purchaser as liquidated damages, due to the
difficulty and inconvenience of ascertaining and measuring actual damages, and
the uncertainty thereof; and no other damages, rights or remedies shall in any
case be collectible, enforceable or available to the Seller other than as
specified in this Article 9, but the Seller shall accept said Cash Payment as
the Seller's total damages and relief. If Purchaser fails to timely deliver the
Cash Payment, Seller shall have all rights at law or equity against Purchaser
for its default.
Section 9.3 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 9.1 and 9.2
above, in the event that after Closing a party (the "Defaulting Party") breaches
an obligation hereunder which is expressly stated herein to survive Closing, the
Defaulting Party shall be liable to the other party (the "Non-Defaulting Party")
for the damages incurred by the Non- Defaulting Party as a result of such
breach.
Section 9.4 Seller and Purchaser specifically acknowledge and agree
that any limitation on remedies set forth in this Article 9 does not apply to
the express hold harmless and indemnification agreements set forth in this
Agreement or to the amounts recoverable pursuant to Section 10.5 hereof.

in connection with any attempted "tax deferred exchange" by the other party, as
may be allowed or permitted under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, as such may have been or may in
the future be amended, including the execution of various assignments or notices
of assignments to qualified intermediaries as may be required to effect such a
transaction; provided, however, that the Purchaser will not be obligated to bear
or incur any costs or expenses in connection with such transaction and shall be
indemnified and held harmless by Seller from, against and with respect to all
aspects of any such exchange and the results or consequences thereof and all
matters arising therefrom. Additionally, the accomplishment of a tax deferred
exchange shall in no event be a condition to the Closing.

in connection with the purchase and sale hereunder. Each party hereto agrees to
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party from and against any and
all claims, losses, damages, costs, or expenses (including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorney's fees) of any kind or character arising out of or
resulting from any agreement,
16

contemplated hereby. This Section 10.15 shall survive the Closing or any
