ARTICLE III
Section 3.1 Representations and Warranties of ResCap and Seller. ResCap and Seller, jointly
and severally, represent and warrant to Buyer as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date
(except with respect to any representation or warranty made as of a specified date, which shall be
made only as of such date) that:
(a) Due Organization. Each of ResCap, Seller and Subsidiary is duly formed, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation. Each of ResCap and
Seller has all requisite limited liability company power and authority to enter into this Agreement
and to carry out its respective obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby. Subsidiary has the requisite limited liability company power and authority to
own its assets and to carry on its business as presently conducted and is duly qualified to do
business and is in good standing (where such concept exists) as a foreign limited liability company
in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or the ownership or leasing of its
properties makes such qualification necessary.
(b) Binding Effect. The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance of
its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been
duly authorized by all requisite limited liability company action on the part of each of ResCap,
Seller and Subsidiary. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each of ResCap,
Seller and Subsidiary. This Agreement, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by
Buyer, constitutes a legally binding obligation of each of ResCap, Seller and Subsidiary,
enforceable against each of ResCap, Seller and Subsidiary in accordance with its terms, subject to
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting the
rights of creditors generally. As of the Closing Date with respect to the Limited Assignment and
Assumption Agreement, Ancillary Transfer Documents, Mutual Release and the Servicing Agreement (i)
the execution and delivery of each such Transaction Document, the performance of their respective
obligations thereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby shall have
been duly authorized by all requisite limited liability company power on the part of each of ResCap
and Seller; (ii) each such Transaction Document shall have been duly executed and delivered by each
of ResCap and Seller; and (iii) each such Transaction Document shall constitute a legally binding
obligation of each of ResCap
and Seller, enforceable against each such entity in accordance with its terms, subject to
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting the
rights of creditors generally.
(c) Consents and Approvals. No consent, approval, waiver, authorization, notice or
filing is required to be obtained from or made with any Governmental Entity or self-regulatory
organization or any other Person by ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates, including Seller
and Subsidiary, in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of any of the
Transaction Documents, other than those set forth in Section 3.1(c) of the ResCap Disclosure
Letters (the “Required Seller Consents”).
(d) Non-Contravention. Assuming the receipt of the Required Seller Consents, the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by ResCap, Seller and Subsidiary and by
ResCap, Seller and each of their respective controlled Affiliates of the other Transaction
Documents (to the extent executed and delivered), and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, do not and will not (i) violate any provision of the
organizational documents of the applicable entity, (ii) result in the material breach of, or
constitute a material default under, or result in the termination, cancellation, modification or
acceleration (whether after the filing of notice or the lapse of time or both) of any material
right or obligation of ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates, including Seller and Subsidiary,
under, or result in a loss of any material benefit to which such Party is entitled under, any
material Contract (including the MSRAs), or result in the creation of any Encumbrance upon any of
the Interests or the Subject Assets, or (iii) violate or result in a breach of or constitute a
default under any Law to which ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates, including Seller and
Subsidiary, is subject.
(e) Subject Assets.
(i) Seller has full right to sell, assign and transfer all of its right, title and
interest in the Interests to Buyer, subject to receipt of the Required Seller Consents.
Seller is the owner of the Interests, free and clear of any Encumbrances of any nature
whatsoever (except for any such Encumbrances being released prior to or effective upon the
Closing). At the Closing, Seller shall transfer all right, title and interest in the
Interests to Buyer, free and clear of any Encumbrances of any kind (other than those imposed
by applicable securities Laws), and, except for those Ancillary Transfer Documents executed
and delivered to Buyer by Seller at Closing, no novations or assignments shall be necessary
to vest Buyer at the Closing with such right, title and interest. The Interests constitute
all of the outstanding membership interests (or other form of equity- or equity-like
interests) of Subsidiary. Subsidiary has good and valid title to each Subject Asset, free
and clear of any Encumbrances of any nature whatsoever except for Permitted Encumbrances and
any other Encumbrances being released prior to or effective upon the Closing. For each
Subject Asset, it was the policy of Subsidiary or Subsidiary’s predecessor in title to
obtain a title insurance policy in favor of (A) Subsidiary, or (b) a predecessor-in-title to
Subsidiary, and each predecessor-in-title to Subsidiary has transferred the Subject Asset to
a subsequent predecessor-in-title to Subsidiary or to Subsidiary using a general warranty
deed. The Services to be performed by ResCap or its controlled Affiliates under the
Servicing Agreement, shall, at Closing, constitute all
services necessary to operate the Subject Assets in all material respects as currently
operated. The sole business conducted by Subsidiary is and has been the ownership of the
Subject Assets, the Excluded Assets and the model homes sold by Subsidiary prior to June 30,
2008, and, except for obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent
with past practice, pursuant to the transactions contemplated hereby or as otherwise set
forth in Section 3.1(e)(i) of the ResCap Disclosure Letters, Subsidiary has not
incurred any Liabilities other than Retained Liabilities, Assumed Liabilities and those
Liabilities satisfied in full prior to the Closing. None of the Assets have been sold,
transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of since the Cut-Off Date, other than the
Excluded Assets. Subsidiary has no employees.
(ii) Except as set forth in Section 3.1(e)(ii) of the ResCap Disclosure
Letters, there are no pending or, to ResCap’s Knowledge, threatened Claims concerning
any Subject Asset that constitutes real property (the “Model Homes”) or the MSRAs or
the obligations or rights of ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates or other Persons in
and to the Model Homes or under the MSRAs. Neither ResCap nor any of its controlled
Affiliates has received any written notice from any Governmental Entity that there currently
is any pending condemnation or eminent domain proceeding relating to the Model Homes, or
that any such proceeding is currently contemplated. To ResCap’s Knowledge, except as would
not reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the aggregate, in material
liability to Subsidiary or Buyer: (i) each Model Home has been used and occupied only as a
model home and/or as a sales office for the marketing of other homes in the applicable
Community or for storage of items relating to the applicable Community in accordance with
applicable Laws and for no other purpose, (ii) the construction of the Model Homes and all
improvements in the Communities in which the Model Homes are located (or the phase of the
Community in which the Model Home is located if the Community is being developed in phases)
have been completed in compliance with applicable Law to the extent necessary to allow for
use of the Model Homes as single family residences following Retrofit (as defined in the
MSRAs), (iii) except as set forth in Section 3.1(e)(ii) of the ResCap Disclosure
Letters, the applicable builder has complied with all state disclosure requirements and
community covenants in respect of the Subject Assets and (iv) no property underlying any of
the Model Homes contains Hazardous Materials in amounts that would violate applicable Law.
(iii) Each MSRA is in full force and effect and, upon the execution and delivery of the
Limited Assignment and Assumption Agreement with respect to the Pool 1 MSRA, will be the
valid and binding obligation of Subsidiary to the extent assumed thereby and, to ResCap’s
Knowledge, the other parties thereto are in compliance in all material respects with all
terms and conditions in the MSRAs and, except as set forth in Section 3.1(e)(iii) of the
ResCap Disclosure Letters, there does not exist under the MSRAs any material violation,
breach or event of default, or alleged material violation, breach or event of default, or
event or condition that, after notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a material
violation, breach or event of default thereunder on the part of Subsidiary or, to ResCap’s
Knowledge, any other party to the MSRAs. The MSRAs, the Note and the Guaranty constitute
the only Contracts in effect between ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates, on the one
hand, and the applicable builder or any of its
Affiliates, on the other hand, concerning the Subject Assets. As of the Closing, other
than the MSRAs, the Note and the Guaranty, there are no Contracts or indebtedness to which
ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates is a party with respect to which the Subject
Assets are bound.
(f) Liabilities. Except for those items included as a reduction to the purchase price
in the calculation of the Proration Amount in accordance with Exhibit D, all liabilities
required to be paid prior to or as of 12:01 a.m. (New York City Time) on the Closing Date by ResCap
or any of its controlled Affiliates, including Subsidiary, in respect of any of the Interests or
Subject Assets (including under the MSRAs, the Note or the Guaranty) have been fully paid by ResCap
or the applicable controlled Affiliate. Without limiting the generality of the previous sentence,
(i) since its formation, Subsidiary has always been and is an entity disregarded from its sole
owner for U.S. Federal tax purposes and no deficiency for any Taxes has been asserted or assessed
with respect to any of the Interests or Subject Assets that has not been satisfied by payment,
settled or withdrawn, (ii) there is no audit, claim or controversy currently asserted or threatened
in writing with respect to the any of the Interests or Subject Assets in respect of any Taxes and
(iii) there are no Encumbrances or security interests on any of the Interests or Subject Assets
that arose in connection with any failure to pay any Taxes.
(g) Brokers/Finders. No broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other Person
is entitled to any broker’s, finder’s, financial advisor’s or other similar fee or commission in
connection with the Interests (or the transfer of control of any of the Subject Assets as a result
thereof) pursuant to this Agreement based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of ResCap or any
of its controlled Affiliates with respect to which Buyer or Subsidiary has any obligation or
liability.
(h) Non-Foreign Person. Seller’s sole owner for U.S. Federal tax purposes is not a
“foreign person” for purposes of Section 1445 of the Code.
(i) No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and
warranties contained in this Section 3.1, neither ResCap or any of its controlled
Affiliates or other Persons makes any express or implied representation or warranty on behalf of
ResCap or Seller or with respect to the Interests or Assets.
Section 3.2 Representations and Warranties of Buyer. Buyer represents and warrants to
ResCap as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date (except with respect to any representation
or warranty made as of a specified date, which shall be made only as of such date) that:

rights of creditors generally. As of the Closing Date with respect to the Limited Assignment and
Assumption Agreement, Ancillary Transfer Documents, Mutual Release and the Servicing Agreement, (i)

obligations thereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby shall have
been duly authorized by all requisite limited liability company or corporate power, as applicable,
on the part of Buyer; (ii) each such Transaction Document shall have been duly executed and
delivered by Buyer; and (iii) each such Transaction Document shall constitute a legally binding
obligation of Buyer, enforceable against Buyer in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting the rights of
creditors generally.
(c) Consents and Approvals. No consent, approval, waiver, authorization, notice or
filing is required to be obtained from or made with any Governmental Entity or self-regulatory
organization or any other Person, by Buyer in connection with the execution, delivery and
performance of any of the Transaction Documents.
(d) Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by Buyer of each of
the Transaction Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and

termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration (whether after the filing of notice or the
lapse of time or both) of any material right or obligation of Buyer under, or result in a loss of
any material benefit to which Buyer is entitled under, any material Contract, or result in the

Buyer with respect to which ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates has any obligation or
liability.
(f) No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and
warranties contained in this Section 3.2, neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates or other
Persons makes any express or implied representation or warranty on behalf of Buyer.
ARTICLE IV

(a) Each of the Parties shall cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or
cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, and assist and cooperate with the
other Parties to this Agreement in doing, all things necessary or desirable under applicable Law to
consummate, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, ResCap shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain, prior to the Closing Date, all Required Seller Consents;
provided, that, ResCap shall not have any obligation to pay any material fee to any Person
for the purpose of obtaining any Required Seller Consent or any material costs and expenses of any

of its Affiliates shall have any obligation to obtain any Required Seller Consents;
provided, that, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide reasonable
cooperation in connection with ResCap’s efforts to obtain such Required Seller Consents. In
connection with seeking or obtaining any Required Seller Consent, neither ResCap nor any of its
controlled Affiliates shall consent to the imposition of any limitations, restrictions or

of the MSRAs).

shall enter into the servicing agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Servicing Agreement”).
From and after the Closing, ResCap shall direct the applicable builder to pay to Buyer in

Assets under the MSRAs, except as otherwise requested in writing by Buyer in connection with
ResCap’s performance of services pursuant to the Servicing Agreement. If at any time after the
Closing, ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates receives proceeds or other payments in respect

benefit of Buyer and have no equitable or beneficial interest in any such proceeds or payments and
(ii) deliver such proceeds and payments (free of any withholding, setoff, recoupment or deduction
of any kind) promptly (but in any event no later than three Business Days after the date on which
such Person receives such proceeds or payment) to Buyer or at Buyer’s request, to Subsidiary.
Section 4.4 Excluded Asset Sales. Buyer acknowledges that ResCap and Seller shall retain
all beneficial ownership interest in any Excluded Assets that are not sold to a third party before
Closing, notwithstanding Subsidiary’s continuing record ownership of such Excluded
Assets after the Closing. In accordance therewith, Subsidiary shall, and Buyer shall cause
Subsidiary to, (a) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Excluded Assets, including completion

terms of this Section 4.4. Within a reasonable time prior to the payment of any such Tax,
the party paying such Tax shall give notice to the other party of the Tax payable and the portion
that is the liability of each party, although failure to do so shall not relieve the other party
from its liability hereunder except to the extent that it is materially prejudiced by such delay.

all Tax Returns, if any, relating to any Transfer Taxes that become payable in connection with the

liabilities, penalties, fines, interest, costs, damages, judgments, amounts paid in settlement and
expenses (including, without limitation, the cost and expenses of any litigations, actions,

accountants incurred in the investigation or defense thereof or the enforcement of rights
hereunder) (collectively, “Losses”) related to or arising out of any one or more of the

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by ResCap or any of its
controlled Affiliates in this Agreement (without giving effect to any qualifications as to
materiality or similar qualifications contained in such representations or warranties);
(ii) any breach by ResCap or Seller of any covenant to be performed or complied with by
ResCap or Seller under this Agreement; or
(iii) the Retained Liabilities.
(b) From and after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify and defend ResCap, its Affiliates,
managing member, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (each a “ResCap
Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all Losses related to or arising out of any one or

Section 7.3 Notice of Claim; Defense.
(a) If any third party institutes or asserts any claim, demand, investigation, action or
proceeding (each of the foregoing, a “Proceeding”) against any Person entitled to
indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”) that may give rise to Losses
for which a party (an “Indemnifying Party”) may be liable for indemnification under this
Article VII (a “Third-Party Claim”), then the Indemnified Party shall promptly send
to the Indemnifying Party a written notice specifying (to the extent such information is reasonable
available) the nature of such claim and, if available, the estimated amount of all related
Liabilities, which estimate shall be subject to change (a “Claim Notice”). The
Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of its indemnification obligations under this Article
VII to the extent that it is materially prejudiced by the failure of the Indemnified Parties to
provide a timely and adequate Claim Notice. If a Claim Notice has been given prior to the
expiration of the applicable representations and warranties, then the relevant representation and
warranties shall survive as to such claim until such claim has been finally resolved.
(b) The Indemnifying Party will have 20 days (or such lesser number of days as set forth in
the Claim Notice as may be required by court proceeding in the event of a litigation matter) after
receipt of the Claim Notice to notify the Indemnified Party that it desires to assume and
thereafter conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim with counsel of its choice
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, unless the Indemnified Party has notified
the Indemnifying Party that it has determined in good faith that (i) there is a reasonable
probability that such claim may materially and adversely affect it or its Affiliates other than as
a result of money damages, (ii) a conflict of interest exists in respect of such claim, or (iii)
there are specific defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or
additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party and that could be adverse to the
Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim, it
shall have conclusively established its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect
to such Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Parties may participate, at their own expense and
through legal counsel of their choice, in any such Proceeding; provided, that the
Indemnified Parties and their counsel shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and
its counsel in connection with such Proceeding. The Indemnifying Party shall not (i) consent to,
or enter into, any compromise or settlement which commits the Indemnified Party to take, or to
forbear to take, any action or does not provide for a full and complete written release by such
third party of the Indemnified Party, (ii) consent to, or enter into, any compromise or settlement,
consent to the entry of any judgment, or admit any liability or wrongdoing with respect to any
Third-Party Claim unless it involves only the payment of money damages all of which will be borne
by the Indemnifying Party in accordance with its indemnification obligations hereunder and does not
impose an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party or otherwise involve any
admission of liability or wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party, in each case, without the
Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnifying Party elects not to retain counsel and
assume control of such defense or if both the Indemnifying Party and any Indemnified Party are
parties to or subjects of such Proceeding and conflicts of interests exist between the Indemnifying
Party and such Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Parties shall retain counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Indemnifying Party in connection with such Proceeding and assume control of the
defense in connection with such Proceeding, and, to the extent the Indemnified Party is entitled to
indemnification hereunder in connection with such Proceeding, the fees, charges and disbursements
of not more than one firm as such counsel per jurisdiction selected by the Indemnified Parties
shall be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party. Under no circumstances will the Indemnifying Party
have any liability in connection with any settlement of any Proceeding that is entered into without
its prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
(c) From and after the delivery of a Claim Notice, at the reasonable request of the
Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party shall (i) reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying
Party in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim and (ii) grant the Indemnifying Party
and its counsel, experts and representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours, to
the books, records, personnel (including as witnesses or deponents at trial and during the
discovery process) and properties of the Indemnified Party to the extent reasonably related to the
Claim Notice, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence, at no
cost to the Indemnifying Party (other than for reasonable out of pocket expenses of the Indemnified
Parties).
(d) From and after the Closing, except in the case of fraud, the indemnification obligations
set forth in this Article VII are the exclusive remedy of the
Indemnified Parties (a) for any inaccuracy in any of the representations or any breach of any
of the warranties or covenants contained herein or (b) otherwise with respect to this Agreement and
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and matters arising out of, relating to or
resulting from the subject matter of this Agreement, whether based on statute, contract, tort,
property or otherwise, and whether or not arising from the relevant Party’s sole, joint or
concurrent negligence, strict liability or other fault.
Section 7.4 Limitations on Indemnification.
(a) To the extent that a Party hereto shall have any obligation to indemnify and hold harmless
any other Person hereunder, such obligation shall not include lost profits or other consequential,
special, punitive, incidental or indirect damages (and the injured Party shall not recover for such
amounts), except to the extent such amounts are required to be paid to a third party other than an
Indemnified Party or a Person affiliated therewith.
(b) Except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation, ResCap shall not have any
obligation to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) relating
to or arising out of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by ResCap and
Seller pursuant to Section 3.1(e)(ii) or (iii) unless and until the aggregate
amount of all Losses subject to indemnification thereunder shall exceed 0.5% of the Firm Bid Price,
as adjusted pursuant to Sections 2.3 and 2.4 (the “Deductible”), and once
the Deductible is exceeded, ResCap shall be liable for only those Losses in excess of the
Deductible.
(c) Except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation, in no event shall the
aggregate liability of ResCap for Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) relating to or
arising out of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by ResCap and Seller
pursuant to Section 3.1(e)(ii) or (iii) exceed an amount equal to the Firm Bid
Price, as adjusted pursuant to Sections 2.3 and 2.4 (the “Cap”).
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties agree that neither
the Deductible nor the Cap shall apply with respect to any Losses pursuant to which any Buyer
Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(iii).
(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the amount of any Losses
incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Person shall be calculated after giving effect to (i) any
insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Person (or any of its controlled Affiliates
that are Indemnified Persons) with respect to such Losses and (ii) any other recoveries pursuant to
indemnification rights directly relating to such Loss obtained by the Indemnified Person (or any of
its controlled Affiliates that are Indemnified Persons) from any other third party, less, in the
case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence, all Losses related to the
pursuing and receipt of such recoveries and any related recoveries. If any such net proceeds or
recoveries are actually received by an Indemnified Person (or any of its controlled Affiliates that
are Indemnified Persons) with respect to any Losses after an Indemnifying Person has made a payment
to the Indemnified Person with respect thereto, the Indemnified Person (or such Affiliate) shall
pay to the Indemnifying Person the amount of such net proceeds or recoveries (up to the amount of
the Indemnifying Person’s payment).
(f) Upon making any payment to an Indemnified Person in respect of any Losses, the
Indemnifying Person shall, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights of the
Indemnified Person (and its Affiliates) against any insurance company from which the Indemnified
Person (and its controlled Affiliates that are Indemnified Persons) has insurance in respect of the
Losses to which such payment relates. Such Indemnified Person (and its controlled Affiliates that
are Indemnified Persons) and Indemnifying Person shall execute upon request all instruments
reasonably necessary to evidence or further perfect such subrogation rights. To the extent the
exercise of rights under this Section 7.4(f) directly results in higher insurance premiums
for the Indemnified Person, the incremental cost of such higher premiums shall constitute “Losses.”
(g) If (i) the Indemnifying Party has expressly confirmed in writing its obligation to
indemnify an Indemnified Party for a Third Party Claim (or been deemed to have confirmed its
obligation to indemnify by assuming the defense of such Third Party Claim) and (ii) the Indemnified
Party is entitled to indemnification from a third party unaffiliated with such Indemnified Party,
then, promptly at the written request of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to enforce its rights in respect of such third party
indemnification; provided, that (x) any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by the
Indemnified Party in connection with such efforts shall constitute Losses hereunder and (y) the
Indemnified Party shall not be required to bring any action or pursue any claim under arbitration
or mediation to enforce its rights or otherwise take any action that the Indemnified Party
determines in its reasonable judgment would be detrimental in any material respect to any ongoing
business relationship with such third party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 7.4, ResCap shall not have any right, directly or indirectly, to pursue any
indemnification rights of Buyer or Subsidiary under the MSRAs or otherwise, except to the extent
directed in writing by Buyer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement.
(h) Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses,
whether by asserting claims against a third party (subject to clause (g) above) or by
otherwise qualifying for a benefit that would reduce or eliminate an indemnified matter;
provided, that no party shall be required to use such efforts if such efforts (i) would
require such party to pay any out-of-pocket amount; provided, however, that if an
Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of an opportunity to mitigate any Loss that involves paying
an out-of-pocket amount, then such Indemnified Party shall provide reasonable notification to the
Indemnifying Party of such opportunity and if, after receipt of such notification, the Indemnifying
Party elects to provide an Indemnified Party with immediately available funds with instructions to
use such funds to mitigate any Losses, such Indemnified Party shall use such funds for purposes of
satisfying its obligations under this subsection (h) in accordance with the reasonable
instructions of the Indemnifying Party (it being understood and agreed that funds supplied by an
Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party and used to mitigate Losses shall not represent payment
by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party for reimbursement of indemnified Losses);
provided, further, that failure by the Indemnified Party to provide any such notification shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party of any of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the
extent, and solely to the extent, the Indemnified Party fails to use commercially reasonable
efforts to notify the Indemnifying Party of an opportunity to mitigate any Loss as contemplated
hereby and the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such
failure, or (ii) otherwise would be detrimental in any material respect to any ongoing
business relationship of the Indemnified Party with any third party.

Section 8.2 Amendment; Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived
if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by
ResCap and Buyer, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be
effective. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
Section 8.3 No Assignment or Benefit to Third Parties. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors, legal
representatives and permitted assigns. No Party to this Agreement may assign any of its rights or
delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement, by operation of Law or otherwise, without the
prior written consent of the other Parties hereto. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied,
is intended to confer upon any Person other than ResCap, Seller, Buyer and Subsidiary and each of
their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies
under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, that, the Buyer Indemnified Parties (solely with
respect to their indemnification rights pursuant to this Agreement) and the ResCap Indemnified
Parties (solely with respect to their indemnification rights pursuant to this Agreement) shall be
third party beneficiaries of such Sections of this Agreement, entitled to enforce those specified
provisions hereof.
Section 8.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Exhibits, the ResCap
Disclosure Letters hereto and any certificate or document required to be executed and delivered in
connection with the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby), the other Transaction Documents contain the entire agreement between the
Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters.
Section 8.5 Fulfillment of Obligations. Any obligation of any Party to any other Party
under this Agreement, which obligation is performed, satisfied or fulfilled completely by an
Affiliate of such Party, shall be deemed to have been performed, satisfied or fulfilled by such
Party.
Section 8.6 Expenses. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, all costs and
expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred
in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be
paid by the Party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have
occurred.
Section 8.7 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Selection of Forum; Waiver of Trial by
Jury. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW. Any action or proceeding in
respect of any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contained in
or contemplated hereby against any Party hereto shall be brought in the Chancery Court of the State
of Delaware, any other state court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for
the District of Delaware (the “Chosen Courts”), and solely in connection with claims arising under
this Agreement or the transactions that are the subject of this Agreement, each Party: (i)
irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (ii) waives any objection
to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in the Chosen Courts, (iii) waives any objection
that the Chosen Courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any Party hereto
and (iv) agrees that service of process upon such Party in any such action or proceeding shall be
effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 8.1 of this Agreement. Each Party hereto
irrevocably waives any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
Section 8.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall constitute one and the same Agreement.
Executed signature pages to this Agreement may be delivered by facsimile and such facsimiles will
be deemed as sufficient as if actual signature pages had been delivered.
Section 8.9 Headings. The heading references herein and the table of contents hereof are
for convenience purposes only, and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof.
Section 8.10 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and
the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to
any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision
shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the
intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this
Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be
affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability
affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other
jurisdiction.
Section 8.11 Commitment Regarding Actions of Controlled Affiliates. With respect to any
covenant requiring any controlled Party or controlled Affiliate of a Party to take an action or
omit to take an action, such Party shall cause such controlled Affiliate to comply with such
covenant. Any failure by any Party’s controlled Affiliates to do so shall also constitute a breach
of such covenant by such Party.
Section 8.12 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that money damages would be
both incalculable and an insufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by such Party and
that any such breach would cause the other Party hereto irreparable harm. Accordingly, each Party
hereto also agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this
Agreement by such Party, the other Party hereto shall be entitled to equitable relief without the
requirement of posting a bond or other security, including in the form of injunctions and orders
for specific performance.

means, collectively, DOA Properties III (Models), LLC and GMAC Model Home Finance, LLC.
Section 9.2 Services. As used in this Agreement, the term “Services” means
all services obtained by Subsidiary or a Prior Owner with respect to the Subject Assets during the
six-month period ended September 30, 2008 (from ResCap or its controlled Affiliates or by virtue of

controlled Affiliates) that are necessary or advisable, in the reasonable judgment of Buyer,
to own, operate and maintain the Subject Assets as owned, operated and maintained by Subsidiary or
a Prior Owner during the six-month period ended September 30, 2008, including, without limitation,
the services described in the schedules attached hereto (the “Schedules”).
Section 9.3 Change in Services. Any material change in the manner in which the
Services are provided (a “Material Change in Service”), including any change in the
employees or third parties providing such Services, shall require Buyer’s prior written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. To the fullest extent
practicable, Buyer shall receive a written request for consent from ResCap at least five business
days prior to any proposed Material Change in Service, together with reasonable documentation
describing the material terms of such proposed Material Change in Service. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Buyer acknowledges that certain Material Changes in Service may be outside of ResCap’s

any Involuntary Change shall not require Buyer’s prior written consent; provided, that (i) ResCap
shall confer with Buyer in determining the appropriate course of conduct in addressing any
Involuntary Changes and (ii) ResCap shall obtain Buyer’s written consent (not to be unreasonably

notice of such dispute, together with a reasonably detailed explanation of such dispute, at or
prior to the time payment would have otherwise been due, and Buyer may withhold payment of any
disputed amounts pending resolution of the dispute. Buyer’s failure to pay amounts disputed in
accordance with the preceding
2
sentence shall not be grounds for a claim of breach or suspension of the provision of Services
by ResCap, its controlled Affiliates or any third party service provider.
Section 10.4 Records and Inspection. During the term of this Agreement, ResCap shall
maintain complete and accurate records of the Services provided, costs invoiced to Buyer and
payments made thereunder. All such records shall be available for inspection by Buyer or its
representative.
ARTICLE XI Relationship between the Parties.
Section 11.1 Independent Contractors. ResCap, its controlled Affiliates and any third
party service providers in the performance of the Services, shall be acting as independent
contractors to Subsidiary and Buyer and its Affiliates, and not as partners, joint venturers or
agents of Buyer. Neither ResCap nor Buyer intends to create by this Agreement an employer-employee
relationship. Each of ResCap, its controlled Affiliates and any third party service providers, on
the one hand, and Subsidiary and Buyer, on the other hand, shall retain control over their
respective personnel, and their respective employees shall not be considered employees of the
other. Except as expressly provided pursuant to any signing authority granted pursuant to any
power of attorney or written consent of the board of directors of Buyer, neither ResCap, any of its
controlled Affiliates or any third party service providers, on the one hand, nor Subsidiary or
Buyer, on the other hand, shall have any right, power or authority to create any obligation,
express or implied, on behalf of the other pursuant to this Agreement.
Section 11.2 Cooperation. ResCap shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to,
and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its, employees, agents, representatives,
third party service providers and subcontractors to, cooperate fully with Buyer, its Affiliates and
their respective employees, agents and representatives to facilitate, in all respects, the
provision of Services to Buyer and its Affiliates. Buyer shall and shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause its respective employees, agents, representatives and subcontractors
to, cooperate fully with ResCap, its controlled Affiliates and their respective employees, agents
and representatives to facilitate, in all respects, the provision of Services to Buyer.
Section 11.3 Steering Committee. As promptly as practicable, ResCap and Buyer shall
form a steering committee (the “Steering Committee”), which shall consist of two
individuals, one of whom shall be nominated by ResCap and one of whom shall be nominated by Buyer.
Subject to Section 1.3, to the fullest extent practicable, ResCap shall keep the Steering Committee
reasonably informed of all proposed changes to the provision of Services and consult with the
Steering Committee prior to taking any such action that would reasonably be expected to adversely
affect the provision of Services hereunder.
3
ARTICLE XII Service Standard; Compliance with Laws.
Section 12.1 Service Standard. ResCap shall, or shall cause its controlled Affiliates
to, or shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its third party service providers to,
provide the Services.
Section 12.2 Compliance With Laws. Neither ResCap nor any of its controlled Affiliates
shall violate any applicable Laws in connection with its performance of the Services.
Section 12.3 Third Party Service Provider. In each instance hereunder where ResCap
shall use a third party service provider to provide the Services, ResCap shall use its commercially
reasonably efforts to cause such third party service providers to provide the Services in
accordance with the Required Servicing Standard and other applicable terms hereof. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any failure of any such third party service provider to perform any Services in
accordance with the Required Servicing Standard or other applicable terms hereof shall constitute a
breach by ResCap of the Requisite Servicing Standard or such other term, as the case may be, and
Subsidiary and Buyer shall be entitled to the remedies provided in this Agreement with respect to
such ResCap breach.
ARTICLE XIII Service Disruptions. If ResCap, its controlled Affiliates’ or any
third party service provider’s performance of any Services is interrupted in whole or in part for
any reason for more than three (3) full Business Days, then Subsidiary and Buyer has the
right (in addition to any other remedies available under this Agreement or by Law), at ResCap’s
sole cost and expense, to make commercially reasonable arrangements to procure such interrupted
Services from an alternative source for the period and to the extent reasonably necessitated by
such interruption, or, if longer, for the duration of the contract entered into with such
alternative source (provided, that Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to limit the duration of the contract with such alternate source to the shortest period of time
that is reasonably practical).
ARTICLE XIV Indemnification.
Section 14.1 Buyer Indemnity. Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless ResCap,
its controlled Affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors, managers, partners,
members, employees, successors and assigns (collectively, the “ResCap Indemnified Parties”)
from and against all Losses arising out of any third party claims in connection with or arising
from the performance of the obligations of ResCap and its controlled Affiliates under this
Agreement, except to the extent such Losses arise out of (i) the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates in the performance of its obligations
under this Agreement, or (ii) any claim that any of the Services violates or infringes on any
intellectual property rights of any third party.
Section 14.2 ResCap Indemnity. ResCap shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer,
its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Subsidiary) and
4

controlled Affiliates in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any claim
that any of the Services violates or infringes on any intellectual property rights of any third
party.
Section 14.3 Procedure. The indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying
party of any action for which an indemnified party intends to claim indemnification hereunder
(provided, however, that the failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not
relieve the indemnifying party from its indemnification obligations, except to the extent (and only
to the extent) that the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such failure). The indemnified party
agrees that that the indemnifying party will have the right to assume and control the defense or
settlement of such action, with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party and reasonably acceptable
to the indemnified party; provided, however, that (i) if the indemnifying party
assumes the defense of any action, it shall have conclusively established its obligation to
indemnify the indemnified party with respect to such action and (ii) the indemnifying party shall
not enter into any settlement or compromise of any such claim in the event such settlement or
compromise imposes any liability or obligation on the indemnified party without the indemnified
party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed). The indemnified party agrees to cooperate in all reasonable respects with the
indemnifying party and its legal representatives in the investigation and defense of any action
covered by indemnification hereunder.
Section 14.4 Limitation of Liability. NEITHER RESCAP NOR BUYER SHALL BE REQUIRED TO
INDEMNIFY THE OTHER OR THE OTHER’S CONTROLLED AFFILIATES FOR ANY EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, TREBLE,
SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, REMOTE OR SPECULATIVE DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR INTERNAL COSTS;
PROVIDED HOWEVER, THAT, IF ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY IS HELD LIABLE PURSUANT TO A
THIRD-PARTY CLAIM FOR ANY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND THE INDEMNIFYING PARTY IS OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY SUCH
INDEMNIFIED PARTY UNDER SECTION 6.1 OR SECTION 6.2 OF THIS AGREEMENT, THEN THE
INDEMNIFYING PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR AND OBLIGATED TO REIMBURSE THE INDEMNIFIED PARTY FOR SUCH
DAMAGES.

and continue until the earlier of (i) the date on which all Services have been terminated in

and expense, to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that
confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information.

any of its controlled Affiliates or third party service providers shall obtain any rights with
respect to the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, and in all cases the Disclosing

may assign or delegate, in whole or in part, its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any
one or more of its Affiliates so long as Buyer remains responsible for the performance of its
obligations hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon
any Person other than ResCap, Buyer and each of its controlled Affiliates, successors, legal

provided, that, the Buyer Indemnified Parties (solely with respect to their
indemnification rights pursuant to this Agreement) and the ResCap Indemnified Parties (solely with

beneficiaries of such Sections of this Agreement, entitled to enforce those specified provisions
hereof.
Section 17.3 Interpretation. The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words
of like import used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any
particular provision of this Agreement. Terms defined in the singular in this Agreement shall also

of reference only and shall be ignored in the construction or interpretation hereof. References to
Articles, Sections, and Schedules are to Articles, Sections, and Schedules of this Agreement unless
otherwise specified. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this
Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation,” whether or not
they are in fact followed by those words or words of like import. The phrases “the date of this
Agreement,” “the date hereof” and phrases of similar import, unless the context otherwise requires,
shall be deemed to refer to the date set forth in the Preamble to this Agreement. The parties
hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If any
ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if
drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring
or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
Section 17.4 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.
Section 17.5 Disputes. Any controversy or dispute arising out of this Agreement
(each, a “Dispute”), including, without limitation, any dispute under Section 2.3
hereof, shall be submitted to the Steering Committee. If the Steering Committee fails to reach
unanimous agreement on the resolution of such Dispute within twenty (20) Business Days, then either
ResCap or Buyer may seek remedies under Delaware law, and in connection therewith, such Dispute
shall be brought in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, any other state court of the State
of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the “Chosen
Courts”), and solely in connection with claims arising under this Agreement or the transactions
that are the subject of this Agreement, each Party: (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive
8
jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (ii) waives any objection to laying venue in any such
action or proceeding in the Chosen Courts, (iii) waives any objection that the Chosen Courts are an
inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over any Party hereto and (iv) agrees that service
of process upon such Party in any such action or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given
in accordance with Section 8.1 of the Purchase Agreement. Each Party hereto irrevocably
waives any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to
this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents contain the entire agreement between the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters.
Section 17.7 Force Majeure. Subject to Section 5 of this Agreement, neither
party shall be responsible to the other for any delay in or failure of performance of its
obligations under this Agreement (other than payment obligations under Section 2) to the
extent such delay or failure is attributable to any cause beyond its reasonable control, including
any act of God, fire, earthquake, failures of its computers or electronic transmissions (but solely
to the extent outside its reasonable control), strike or other labor disputes, war, embargo or
other governmental act, or riot; provided, however, that the party affected thereby
gives the other party prompt written notice of the occurrence of any event that is likely to cause
any delay or failure setting forth a reasonable estimate of the length of any delay and any
expectation that it shall be unable to resume performance; and provided, further,
that said affected party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to expeditiously overcome
the effects of that event and resume performance with the least possible delay. For the avoidance
of doubt, Buyer shall not be obligated to pay ResCap or any of its controlled Affiliates for
Services during the period of time when ResCap is not providing, or causing to be provided, such
Services.

Buyer. Within twenty (20) calendar days prior to the Availability Date, (a) Buyer shall deposit or
cause to be deposited with the escrow holder or closing agent the balance of the Purchase Price and
all closing costs and fees, including contract coordination fees, to be paid by Buyer and all
documents necessary to close, (b) the Company, shall likewise deliver to the escrow holder or
closing agent all funds and documents necessary to close, including a fully executed and notarized
deed for the conveyance of title to the Property to Buyer. Unless this Agreement is earlier
terminated as provided herein, the closing for Buyer’s acquisition of the Property (“Closing”)
shall occur within three (3) business days after the Availability Date, as such date may be
modified by Builder from time to time as provided below. If, after notice
and tender of its required performance by the Company, Buyer is not ready to close within the time
set forth herein, Buyer shall be in material default of its obligations under this Agreement.
THE ACTUAL CLOSING DATE MAY VARY FROM THE ESTIMATED CLOSING DATE SET FORTH ABOVE AND ANY OTHER
ESTIMATED CLOSING DATES PROVIDED BY THE COMPANY OR BUILDER TO BUYER, INCLUDING ANY “AVAILABILITY
DATE” IN ANY COMMUNICATION FROM THE COMPANY OR BUILDER TO BUYER. BUYER HEREBY ACCEPTS THE
UNCERTAINTY OF THE DATE ESTIMATED FOR THE CLOSING.
3. BUYER’S RIGHT OF CANCELLATION. As set forth in Paragraph 2, Buyer acknowledges that any
estimated closing date is approximate and subject to the rate of sales and construction at the
community, which rates are extremely difficult to estimate in advance. However, if the Company or
Builder has not given notice to Buyer of an Availability Date not later than months
after the Estimated Closing Date set forth above (“Outside Closing Date”), then Buyer shall have
the option, which option Buyer may exercise at any time after the Outside Closing Date and prior to
the closing, of delivering written notice to Builder and the Company of Buyer’s election to
terminate the Agreement and cancel the purchase of the Property, in which event Buyer’s deposits
shall be returned to Buyer, within fifteen (15) calendar days after Builder’s receipt of Buyer’s
written notice of such termination and cancellation and neither the Company nor Builder shall have
any further obligation to Buyer with respect to the Property or under this Agreement.
4. PRIOR USE AS MODEL HOME.
4.1 Buyer acknowledges that the Home has been and will continue to be used as a model home
and/or sales office by Builder since the date it was completed as described above. As a result,
Buyer accepts that certain items in the Home (including, but not limited to, wall coverings, floor
coverings, window treatments, heating system, air conditioning system, landscaping irrigation
system and similar items) have suffered and will continue to suffer wear and tear in excess of the
wear and tear typically associated with the initial delivery of a new production home.
4.2 Buyer, with full knowledge of the above, agrees that all items not included in the Limited
Warranty (defined below), including any personal property included in the Property, as currently
installed, shall be accepted by Buyer in their “AS-IS” condition at the closing, subject to the
other provisions of the Agreement.
4.3 If not completed prior to the complete execution of this Agreement, a concrete driveway
will be completed by or for Buyer, at no cost to Buyer, in the location between the garage and the
street prior to the closing.
4.4 If the Home contains a sales office located in the garage, local building codes typically
require that the overhead garage door(s) be installed prior to occupancy by Buyer. If local
building codes permit, any carpeting and permanent storage room will remain in the garage for the
Buyer; however, Builder has advised the Company that it is
Builder’s experience that garage storage areas are typically required to be altered or
eliminated. This will be determined by Builder in conjunction with the applicable jurisdiction.
Buyer also acknowledges that certain hardscape items must be removed in conjunction with the
conversion of the model home/sales office to a residence. By way of example only, trellises built
over the sales office entrance must be removed prior to the installation of the overhead garage
door and the trap fence and trap walk will be removed and replaced with plant material.
Builder has advised the Company that other hardscape material may be required to be removed depending on the requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The Company shall not be obligated to cause Builder to, and Builder does not, guaranty in any way any special pools, spas, fountains (and related equipment), built-in walls, patios, barbecues and other landscape plan items which do remain with the Home at closing. These items will be sold in their “AS-IS” condition and may not have all equipment with respect to their full operation. By way of example only, spas may not have heaters or other equipment normally associated with a working spa. Neither the Company nor Builder have any responsibility to provide such additional equipment to Buyer. Only the equipment in such items as of the date of this Agreement shall be included.
Builder has advised the Company that other hardscape material may be required to be removed depending on the requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The Company shall not be obligated to cause Builder to, and Builder does not, guaranty in any way any special pools, spas, fountains (and related equipment), built-in walls, patios, barbecues and other landscape plan items which do remain with the Home at closing. These items will be sold in their “AS-IS” condition and may not have all equipment with respect to their full operation. By way of example only, spas may not have heaters or other equipment normally associated with a working spa. Neither the Company nor Builder have any responsibility to provide such additional equipment to Buyer. Only the equipment in such items as of the date of this Agreement shall be included.
4.5 The Company has contracted with Builder to remove from the Property all signs, flag poles,
model complex enclosure fences, boxed plantings, front yard light fixtures and other items
identifying the model home site and other matters in connection with the sale of homes in the
community in which the Property is located; and to fill the holes created by the removal of such
items from the ground or patio at Builder’s expense.
5. WARRANTY. Buyer acknowledges that the home constructed on the Property (the “Home”) is
covered by the KB HOME Limited Warranty Agreement (a form of which has been provided to Buyer)
issued by Builder, as such limited warranty is amended and supplemented by this paragraph (the
“Limited Warranty”). The “Limited Warranty Commencement Date” as set forth in the Limited Warranty
shall be the closing date for Buyer’s purchase of the Property.
5.1 Buyer acknowledges that s/he is satisfied, independent of any representations by the
Company, Builder or any broker, that the Home is presently (i) free from any defect resulting in or
causing tangible damage to the roof, walls or foundation which materially diminishes the structural
integrity and the load-bearing performance of the Home, and (ii) that the Major Components of the
Home (as defined in the Limited Warranty) are “free from defects and workmanship” as referenced by
the Limited Warranty. Accordingly, Buyer agrees that Builder’s responsibility under the Limited
Warranty shall be limited to covered damage or malfunctions caused by conditions which arise after
the date in which title to the Home is transferred from the Company to Buyer.
5.2 Buyer further acknowledges that the term “Major Components” of the Home, as used in the
Limited Warranty, shall refer only to the plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling systems of the
Home, including wiring, pipes, vents and ducts (except for the furnace, air conditioning condenser
and water heater, which are “Appliances”). As a result of this Addendum, the additional items
listed as Major
Components under Section B(2) of the Limited Warranty shall not be deemed Major Components for
the purposes of the Limited Warranty. Instead, the cabinets, doors, driveways, exterior painting,
fireplace, floor coverings, roof installation, shelves, tract boundary walls and windows shall be
treated as “Appliances” for the purposes of the Limited Warranty and shall be warranted to be free
from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year beginning with the Limited
Warranty Commencement Date.
5.3 Buyer further acknowledges that the Limited Warranty (as hereby amended) is intended to
apply to defects in the systems and components in the Home and not to the aging and wear and tear
of such components and systems. Buyer understands that (i) construction of the Home was completed
on or prior to the Limited Warranty Commencement Date, (ii) the Home has been used for model Home
and/or sales office purposes continually since that time, and (iii) the covered components and
systems have deteriorated since the construction date and are not in new condition. Accordingly,
in interpreting the Limited Warranty for the purposes of coverage, the term “defect” shall not be
construed to include damage or deterioration caused by age and/or wear or tear.
Except as changed by this paragraph, the Limited Warranty shall remain in full force and effect as
drafted.
THE LIMITED WARRANTY IS THE ONLY WARRANTY GIVEN CONNECTION WITH THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY. TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, HABITABILITY, USE, WORKMANSHIP AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
ARE DISCLAIMED EXCLUDED AND WAIVED.
6. FINAL VERIFICATION OF CONDITION. Buyer acknowledges that certain landscape and/or
hardscape items may be required to be altered by or for Builder prior to the closing in order to
complete the renovation of the Home in compliance with local building codes pursuant to Paragraph
4. The exterior landscaping of the Home will be maintained by or for the Company until the closing
date; however, no new plant material will be added by the Company or Builder nor will any dead or
damaged plant material be replaced by the Company or Builder after the closing date.
7. FIXTURES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY. No personal property is included in the sale except for
personal property which is specifically identified on a supplement or addendum to this contract
signed by Buyer and the Company. Personal property includes, without limitation, the following
types of property, if and to the extent that they are located on the Property: music systems,
security systems, interior and exterior potted plants, pictures, artwork, linens, non built-in
appliances (including, without limitation, televisions, refrigerators, and clothes washers and
dryers), interior and exterior furniture (including, without limitation, patio furniture, office
furniture and equipment or office fixtures, cabinetry, shelving and lighting not attached to the
walls or ceiling) and any other item labeled or otherwise identified as a “Decorator Item” in the
Property which is not a fixture. All items of personal property which are not specifically
included in the
sale, as agreed by Buyer and the Company, in writing, shall be removed by or for the Company prior
to the closing, without cost to Buyer but also without reimbursement to Buyer. If any personal
property which is not specifically identified, in writing, as being included in the Property (and,
therefore, is not included in Buyer’s purchase of the Property) remains on the Property at the
closing, Buyer shall be entitled to keep such personal property but such personal property is
conveyed as part of the Property, but without warranty or representation as to fitness for any
purpose. Personal property, if any, included in the sale and any other personal property remaining
on the Property at the closing are being transferred in their “AS IS” “WHERE IS” condition and are
not warranted in any way.
8. MEDIATION AND ARBITRATION. In the event of any dispute related to the Property or this
Agreement, the parties shall first mediate their dispute with a third party mediator to be selected
by the parties. The costs of mediation will be shared equally between the parties. In the event
the dispute is not settled at mediation, then this Agreement shall be subject to arbitration under
the Federal Arbitration Act. Subject to the provisions set forth below, all claims, demands,
disputes, controversies and differences that may arise between the parties to this Agreement
(including the officers, agents and employees of each party) of whatever nature or kind, including,
without limitation, disputes: 1) as to events, representations or omissions, which predate this
Agreement; 2) arising out of this Agreement; and/or 3) relative to the construction contemplated by
this Agreement with respect to events occurring prior to the Closing, shall each be submitted to
binding arbitration and such arbitration shall be governed by the provisions of the Federal
Arbitration Act 9, U.S.C. Section 1 et seq. Either party may, within one (1) year after an
arbitration award, apply to the U.S. District Court having jurisdiction over the county in which
the Property is located to confirm the award. The forwarding of a written demand for arbitration
shall toll the running of any applicable statute of limitations for the matter to be arbitrated.
This Agreement to arbitrate shall survive Closing, and shall survive cancellation of this
Agreement. Arbitration shall be conducted through the American Arbitration Association offices
nearest to where the Property is located. The costs of arbitration will be shared equally between
the parties.
The provisions of this Section 8 shall not apply to any repairs or warranty claims with respect to
the Home arising after construction is completed and the Closing has occurred hereunder and shall
expressly NOT control over the dispute resolution provisions in the Warranty for such repairs or
warranty claims. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other agreement
entered into by Buyer or the Company or any other documentation with respect to the Property,
including, without limitation, any of the Covenants, any such repairs or warranty claims shall be
governed by the warranty coverage disputes provisions of the Warranty and applicable State and
Federal law.
WE HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE FOREGOING AND AGREE TO SUBMIT DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF THE MATTERS
INCLUDED IN THE “ARBITRATION (OF DISPUTES” PROVISION TO NEUTRAL ARBITRATION.

9. ENTRY UPON PROPERTY PRIOR TO DELIVERY OF POSSESSION. Except as set forth in this
Paragraph, Buyer shall not be permitted to enter, occupy or take possession of the Property, or
make any alterations of or additions to the Property, prior to delivery of possession. Buyer may
arrange to visit the Property prior to the closing, subject to the Company prior written approval,
and provided that the Company shall have the right to designate an authorized representative to
accompany Buyer on such visit. Buyer acknowledges that the Property is situated within a
construction site and the safety and welfare of persons entering the construction site cannot be
assured. BUYER HEREBY ASSUMES ALL LIABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL INJURIES AND DAMAGES WHICH
ARISE OUT OF OR RESULT FROM BUYER’S BREACH OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH.
10. NO FURTHER MODIFICATIONS. Except as specifically amended herein, the Purchase
Agreement remains unmodified and in full force and effect.
THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY. As against Buyer, Builder shall be a third party beneficiary of
the rights in favor of the Company and Builder hereunder. Nothing provided for in this agreement
shall create any additional obligation between the Company and Builder.

contract (the “Contract”) dated by and between the Company, as Seller, and
as Buyer, as to the property more particularly described therein
and is executed for the benefit of the Company. (“Builder”), a
company totally unrelated to the Company. Builder is in possession of the property under a
lease agreement with the Company. Although the Company holds record title to the
property, under the lease agreement, Builder is the authorized agent of Seller to solicit

workmanship in or on any part of the property, irrespective of when or how it is
identified. Buyer acknowledges that any and all warranties, remedies, or indemnification
obligations, whether pursuant to the Contract or applicable law, if any, are the
obligation of Builder, and not the Company. This addendum shall survive the closing
of this transaction and recording of the deed. Builder will provide its limited warranty
at or prior to closing in accordance with the Contract.
