3.4 Title. Buyer shall have a period of twenty (20) days after receipt of a title commitment and all recorded documents referenced therein (the “Title Approval Date”) to notify Seller ("Buyer's Title Notice") of any exceptions to title to which Buyer objects ("Title Objections"). If Buyer fails to deliver timely notice on or before 5:00 p.m. (Colorado time) on the Title Approval Date, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any right to object to the condition of title to the Property. Seller shall have five (5) days after receipt of Buyer's Title Notice within which to deliver to Buyer, in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion, a notice ("Seller's Title Notice") indicating which Title Objections Seller will remove or insure over (to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction) by the Closing. If Seller (i) does not deliver Seller's Title Notice within the required time, or (ii) timely notifies Buyer that Seller is unable or unwilling to remove or insure over (to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction) all such Title Objections, then Buyer may elect, by written notice to Seller, to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 3.5 below. Buyer's failure to so deliver written notice of termination on or before 5:00 p.m. (Colorado time) on the Contingency Date shall be deemed Buyer's election to waive its Title Objections.

3.5 Termination Right. In the event that Buyer determines, for any reason or no reason whatsoever, that the condition of the Property or title thereto is not acceptable to Buyer or that Buyer no longer desires to purchase the Property, then Buyer may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller and Escrow Holder delivered on or before 5:00 p.m. (Colorado time) on the Contingency Date. Buyer’s failure to provide written notice of termination on or before such date and time shall constitute a waiver of such termination right and Buyer’s election to proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

3.6 Assumed Service Contracts. Buyer shall have until the Contingency Date to either elect to assume any or all of the Service Contracts, or to notify Seller in writing of any Service Contracts that Buyer desires be terminated on or before the Closing (but expressly excluding any laundry lease, which shall be assumed by Buyer at Closing), and which, by their express terms, may be terminated (the "Disapproved Contracts"); provided, however, in no event shall Seller be required to terminate any laundry lease or any Service Contracts which by their terms are not terminable or are otherwise not terminable without payment by Seller of a penalty, charge or premium (unless Buyer elects to pay such penalty, charge or premium at Closing) ("Non-Terminable Contracts”). Seller shall provide written notice of termination to those applicable third parties with respect to such Disapproved Contracts on or before the Closing, but the actual termination of the same shall not be a condition to Closing. Those Service Contracts not expressly disapproved by Buyer and the Non-Terminable Contracts (collectively, the "Approved Contracts") shall be assigned by Seller to, and assumed by, Buyer at the Closing pursuant to the Assignment of Contracts and Xxxx of Sale attached as Exhibit C hereto.

All of Seller’s representations made above that are expressly limited to Seller’s knowledge are made to the actual knowledge of Seller. As used herein, the actual knowledge of Seller is limited solely to matters actually within the actual knowledge (with no duty of due diligence, inquiry or investigation) of Seller’s Representative. Buyer acknowledges that the individual named above is named solely for the purpose of defining and narrowing the scope of Seller’s knowledge and not for the purpose of imposing any liability on or creating any duties running from such individual to Buyer. Buyer covenants that it will bring no action of any kind against such individual related to or arising out of these representations and warranties. Buyer agrees that if, at any time prior to the Closing, Buyer has actual knowledge or otherwise becomes aware of any information which would require the qualification of any of the above representations and warranties for such representation and warranty to be true; it shall promptly notify Seller in writing of such information. In such event, Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation) to attempt to cure such misrepresentation or breach and shall, at its option, be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing (not to exceed five (5) Business Days) for the purpose of such cure. If Seller elects to attempt to so cure but is unable to so cure any misrepresentation or breach of warranty, then Buyer, as its sole remedy for any and all such materially untrue, inaccurate or incorrect representations or warranties, shall elect either (i) to waive such misrepresentations or breaches of representations and warranties and consummate the transaction contemplated hereby without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price, or (ii) if Buyer first obtained knowledge of such material misrepresentation or breach of warranty after expiration of the Contingency Date, to terminate this Agreement in its entirety by written notice given to Seller on the Closing Date, in which event this Agreement shall be terminated, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and, thereafter, neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for any obligation set forth herein which by its terms expressly survives termination, except that Buyer shall be entitled to exercise its rights and remedies under Section 11.2, if applicable. With limiting the foregoing, in the event that, prior to the Closing, Buyer becomes aware of any material inaccuracy in any of the foregoing representations or warranties and

nonetheless elects to go forward with the Closing hereunder, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any and all of its rights and remedies in connection therewith.

The individuals executing this Agreement and the instruments to be executed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, on behalf of Buyer have the legal power, right and actual authority to bind Buyer to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and those instruments.

7.2.4 As-Is Purchase. Buyer hereby represents and warrants and agrees that (a) except as explicitly set forth herein or in any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing, there are no representations or warranties of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, made by Seller its agents or its representatives in connection with this Agreement, the purchase of the Property by Buyer, the physical condition of the Property, the square footage or configuration of the Property or whether the Property complies with applicable laws or is appropriate for Buyer’s intended use; (b) on or prior to the Contingency Date and if Buyer’s clears contingencies then continuing through the Closing Date, Buyer will have (or will have chosen not to have) fully investigated the Property and all matters pertaining thereto; (c) except as explicitly set forth herein or in any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing, Buyer is not relying on any statement or representation of Seller, its agents or its representatives or on any information supplied by Seller, its agents or its representatives; (d) except for the representations , warranties and covenants of Seller set forth herein or in any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing, Buyer, in entering into this Agreement and in completing its purchase of the Property, is relying entirely on its own investigation of the Property; (e) on or prior to the Contingency Date and if Buyer’s clears contingencies then continuing through the Closing Date, Buyer will be aware (or will have chosen not to be aware) of all zoning regulations, other governmental requirements, site and physical conditions, and other matters affecting the use and condition of the Property; (f) except for the representations, warranties and covenants of Seller set forth herein or in any document executed

and delivered by Seller at Closing, Buyer’s election to proceed with the purchase the Property following the Contingency Date on the terms and conditions hereof shall be made solely and exclusively in reliance on Buyer’s own review, inspection and investigation of the Property and of materials, documents, information and studies relating to the Property or the condition of title thereto (including, without limitation, any information obtained through Buyer’s Investigations and/or Physical Testing of the Property); and (g) Buyer shall purchase the Property in its “AS-IS” condition as of the date of Closing with no warranties, express or implied, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, any warranty of condition, habitability, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose other than Seller’s representations and warranties as expressly set forth in Section 7.1 above or in any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing.

7.3 Release. Except for any breach by Seller of any its covenants, representations or warranties contained herein (which shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11.6 below) or in any document executed and delivered by Seller at Closing, Buyer, for itself and its successors and assigns, as of the Closing, releases and forever discharges Seller and its successors and assigns from, and waives any right to proceed against Seller and its successors or assigns for, any and all cost, expense, claim, liabilities and demands (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) at law or in equity, whether known or unknown, arising out of the physical, environmental, economic, legal or other condition of the Property, including, without limitation, any claims for contribution pursuant to any environmental law (collectively, “Claims”), which Buyer or Buyer’s successors or assigns has or may have in the future. It is the intention of the parties that the foregoing release shall be effective as of the Closing with respect to all matters, past and present, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected. Buyer realizes and acknowledges that factual matters now unknown to it may have given or may hereafter give rise to losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and Buyer further agrees that as of the Closing the waivers and releases herein have been negotiated and agreed upon in light of that realization and that Buyer nevertheless hereby intends to release, discharge and acquit Seller from any such unknown losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses. In furtherance of this intention, the Buyer hereby expressly waives as of the Closing any and all rights and benefits conferred upon it by the provisions of any statute or principal of law which provides substantially as follows:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

Buyer hereby specifically acknowledges that Buyer has carefully reviewed this Section, and has had ample opportunity to discuss its import with legal counsel, is fully aware of its consequences, and that the provisions of this Section are a material part of the consideration inducing Seller to enter into this Agreement.

8.6.1 Property Taxes. Real estate taxes and tangible personal property taxes shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. If the amount of any such item is not ascertainable on the Closing Date, the credit therefor shall be based on the most recent available tax xxxx for the Property. Prior to the expiration of the Contingency Period, and subject to delivery to Buyer of written notice thereof and copies of all material documents, notices and filings given or received in connection therewith, Seller reserves the right (a) to meet with governmental officials and to contest, at its own cost, any reassessment concerning or affecting Seller’s obligations under this Section 8.6.1, and (b) to contest any assessment of the Property or any portion thereof and to attempt to obtain a refund for any taxes previously paid (collectively, the “Tax Matters”). Seller shall retain all rights with respect to any refund of taxes applicable to any period prior to the Closing Date. After the expiration of the Contingency Period, Seller and Buyer shall mutually agree, in good faith, regarding any actions to be taken regarding Tax Matters.

8.6.2 Utilities. Seller shall use reasonable efforts to cause any applicable utility meters to be read on the day prior to the Closing Date. Seller will be responsible for the cost of any applicable utilities used prior to the Closing Date and Buyer will be responsible for the cost of any applicable utilities used on or after the Closing Date. If Seller is unable to have any applicable utility meters read on the day prior to the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller shall estimate the amount of such bills based on the immediately preceding utility bills, and such amount shall be the basis for the proration.

8.6.3 Operating Expenses. Operating expenses (including, without limitation, amounts payable under the Approved Service Contracts and other Service Contracts that could not reasonably be terminated prior to the Closing Date, and any assessments payable under the Permitted Exceptions which are allocable to the Property) shall be prorated as of the Closing Date (if the amount of any such item is not ascertainable on the Closing Date, the proration therefor shall be based on the assumption that operating expenses were uniformly incurred during the billing period in which the Closing occurs, with true-up based on the period such expenses were actually incurred).

8.6.4 Rents. Rentals, prepaid rentals and prepaid payments and all other amounts payable under the Leases, and/or by licensees, concessionaires and other persons using or occupying the Property or any part thereof, for or in connection with such use or occupancy, and all other income from all or any part of the Property (collectively, “Rentals”) shall be prorated on the basis that Buyer shall receive a credit for all Rentals which Seller has actually received before the Closing Date which is allocable to the period from and after the Closing Date. If, following the Closing, Buyer shall collect any delinquent Rentals owing to Seller as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall promptly pay the same to Seller; provided, however, Rentals collected by Buyer after the Closing Date shall be applied first to the rental period in which the Closing occurred, second to unpaid Rentals accruing after the Closing Date, and third to satisfy delinquent rental obligations for any period before Closing not prorated at Closing. Buyer shall use good faith commercially reasonable efforts to recover any delinquent Rentals in respect of the period prior to the Closing Date, provided that Buyer shall not be required to incur any material cost or commence any legal proceeding in connection therewith. Seller will retain all ownership rights relating to any delinquent Rentals; if Buyer has not collected the same within sixty (60) days from the Closing Date, then Seller may take such action as it deems necessary to collect any delinquent Rentals, including the commencement of an action against the tenants under the Leases or any other person liable for such delinquent Rentals, but not including any action for unlawful detainer or other action seeking to terminate such tenant's occupancy of its premises.

8.6.5 Security Deposits. Buyer shall be credited and Seller shall be charged with the unapplied balance of the security deposits then held by Seller under the Leases. Buyer will indemnify, defend, and hold Seller harmless from and against all demands and claims made by tenants arising out of the transfer or disposition of any security deposits for which it receives such credit and will reimburse Seller for all reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred or that may be incurred as a result of any such claims or demands as well as for all loss, expenses, verdicts, judgments, settlements, interest, costs and other expenses incurred or that may be incurred by Seller as a result of any such claims or demands by the tenants under the Leases relating to such security deposits.

8.6.6 Post-Closing Reconciliation. Seller and Buyer hereby agree that if any of the above prorations cannot be calculated accurately as of the Closing Date (e.g., property taxes), then the same shall be estimated (based on current information then known, such as the most recent tax bills) for the purposes of Closing and within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, or as soon as sufficient information is available to permit the parties to effectively calculate such prorations, either party owing the other party a sum of money based on such subsequent prorations shall pay such sum to the other party within ten (10) days after such calculations. Promptly after all of the above revenue and expense amounts have been ascertained (but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date), Seller shall prepare, and certify as correct, a final proration statement, which shall be subject to Buyer’s reasonable approval. Upon Buyer’s acceptance and approval of any final proration statement submitted by Seller, such statement shall be conclusively deemed to be accurate and final. The obligations of Seller and Buyer pursuant to this Section 8.6.6 shall survive the Closing of this Agreement.

8.7 Closing Costs.

8.7.1 Seller’s Costs. Seller shall pay, through Escrow, (a) all sales and use taxes required in connection with the transfer of the Property to Buyer, (b) one-half (½) of Escrow Holder’s fee (not to exceed $500), (c) all state, county and local documentary transfer taxes payable in connection with the transfer of the Property to Buyer, (d) that portion of the cost of the premium for the Title Policy obtained by Buyer allocable to premium for an owner’s standard coverage title policy (“Standard Coverage”), (e) all costs related to the removal or cure of Title Objections that Seller has agreed or is required to remove or cure pursuant to Section 3.4 above; and (f) any additional costs and charges customarily charged to sellers in accordance with common escrow practices in Denver County, Colorado.

8.8 Brokers. Seller is represented by Broker. Seller and Buyer each represent and warrant to one another that, except as expressly set forth in the preceding sentence, such party has not engaged any broker or finder with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein. Upon and only upon the Closing, Seller shall pay such commissions to Broker as may be set forth in a separate written agreement between Seller and Broker, or in any separate written instructions related thereto as may be executed and delivered into Escrow by Seller. Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from and against any and all liabilities, claims, demands, damages, or costs of any kind (including attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) arising from or connected with any other broker’s or finder’s fee or commission or charge (“Broker Claims”) claimed to be due by Broker or any other person arising from or by reason of Seller’s conduct with respect to this transaction. Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all Broker Claims claimed to be due by any person other than Broker arising from or by reason of Buyer’s conduct with respect to this transaction.

9. SELLER’S COVENANTS. During the period from the Effective Date until the Closing Date, Seller covenants as follows:

9.1 Leases. Subject to Buyer’s consent, not to be uneasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Seller shall not enter into any new Leases nor extend any existing Leases: (i) for a term of less than six (6) months or longer than eighteen (18) months; (ii) materially below the rental rates set forth in the rate schedule attached as Schedule “2” hereto or as otherwise applied at the Property in accordance with Yield Star, (iii) with rent concessions or other economic incentives greater than those being offered by Seller in the ordinary course of business prior to the Effective Date; (iv) other than on Seller’s standard lease form, or (v) otherwise inconsistent with Seller’s leasing practices during Seller’s period of ownership. The termination of any lease or tenancy prior to Closing by reason of the tenant’s default shall not affect the obligations of Buyer under this Agreement in any manner or entitle Buyer to an abatement of or against the Purchase Price or give rise to any other claim on the part of Buyer.

9.2 Contracts. Seller shall not enter into any new contracts or agreements affecting the Property after the Closing or modify, amend or terminate any existing Service Contract (each a “Contract Transaction”) without Buyer’s written approval. Buyer’s failure to object to a Contract Transaction within five (5) Business Days of notification will be deemed approval, except in emergency situations or in situations that are critical to the operation of the Property, in which event Seller may enter into Services Contracts without the approval of Buyer, provided that such Services Contracts must be terminable upon no more than thirty (30) days’ notice without payment of any penalty or fee.

9.3 Operation of the Property Pending the Closing. Seller agrees that from the Effective Date until the Closing, Seller shall manage, operate, and maintain the Property in the ordinary course consistent with Seller’s current practices as of the Effective Date (including, without limitation, maintenance of substantially the same advertising and marketing programs for the Real Property in effect as of the Effective Date), excepting (a) any obligation to repair damage from casualty events, (b) normal wear and tear, and (c) any obligation to make any structural or extraordinary repairs or capital improvements to the Property (whether or not such expenditure would have normally been incurred in accordance with Seller’s normal operating practices). Seller shall not (i) create or agree to any easements, liens, mortgages, encumbrances or other interests that would affect the Property or Seller’s ability to comply with this Agreement; (ii) initiate or consent to, approve or otherwise take any action with respect to zoning or any other governmental rules or regulations presently applicable to all or any part of the Real Property; or (iii) fail to pay in a timely fashion all proper bills for labor or services for work performed for or on behalf of Seller with respect to the Property. Seller shall keep in force its current property insurance covering all buildings, structures, improvements, machinery, fixtures and equipment included in the Real Property. Seller shall not in any manner sell, convey, assign, transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Property or any part thereof or interest therein other than Personalty that is replaced in the ordinary course of business.

9.4 Vacated Units. In the event that any unit in the Property becomes vacant after the execution of this Agreement and more than five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare the unit for re-rental in accordance with Seller’s custom and practice in effect as of the Effective Date (“rent-ready condition”). Not more than forty-eight (48) hours prior to the Scheduled Closing Date (“Walk Though Date”), a representative of Buyer and a representative of Seller shall conduct an onsite walk-through of the then unoccupied rental units on the Property to determine whether such unoccupied rental units are in “rent ready” condition. With respect to any rental unit that is vacated on or before five (5) days prior to the Schedule Closing Date that Seller has not placed in a “rent ready” condition before the Walk Through Date, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in the amount of $500 per unit.

9.5 Updated Information. Seller shall promptly (i) notify Buyer in writing of any litigation, arbitration, condemnation or administrative hearing before any court or governmental agency concerning Seller or the Property that is instituted after the Effective Date, other than eviction or unlawful detainer actions that will be completed prior to Closing or within an expected period of thirty (30) days thereafter, (ii) provide to Buyer copies of any Leases or Service Contracts entered into after the Effective Date (subject to the terms of Section 9.1 and 9.2 above) and any documents or materials received by Seller from and after the Effective Date that would have been included in Seller Due Diligence Materials if received prior to such date, (iii) within two (2) Business Days after Seller’s receipt of request therefor (which shall not be more than once per week), provide to Buyer an updated Rent Roll with all information concerning the Leases updated through the date that is one (1) Business Day before the date that the updated Rent Roll is delivered to Buyer; (iv) promptly give Buyer copies of all notices received by Seller asserting any breach or default under the Leases or the Service Contracts or any violation of the Permits, Permitted Exceptions or any covenants, conditions, restrictions, laws, statutes, rules, regulations or ordinances applicable to the Property, and (v) promptly furnish to Buyer copies of all written communications given or received by Seller to or from any person concerning any past or present or threatened release of or hazardous substances in, on or under the Real Property or violation of any environmental laws.

10. DAMAGE OR CONDEMNATION.

10.1 Material Damage or Condemnation. If, after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing Date, the Property shall be destroyed or damaged, or if the Property shall become the subject of any proceedings, judicial, administrative, or otherwise, for eminent domain or condemnation, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer thereof. If (a) the value of the Property destroyed or damaged or subject to taking (and/or the impact on the remainder of the Property) is greater than two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price, or (b) there is any actual or threatened condemnation or eminent domain action of any direct or indirect access to or parking spaces at the Property or would cause the Property to become non-conforming (or legal non-conforming) for zoning purposes, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller and upon such termination, neither Seller or Buyer shall thereafter have any obligation to each other, other than those that by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement. In the alternative, Buyer may elect to complete the transaction on the terms set forth in this Agreement and, in such event, Buyer shall receive a full assignment of all insurance proceeds paid or payable by reason of such damage or destruction or condemnation awards, as applicable, given as consideration for the taking (other than proceeds, not to exceed $20,000 without the prior written consent of Buyer, reasonably expended prior to Closing in restoration and repair of the Property by Seller, in Seller’s sole and but good faith discretion) plus a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of the deductible. The phrase “taking by eminent domain” includes any notices of taking or commencement of proceedings under eminent domain power, but excludes any claim for inverse condemnation.

10.2 Non-Material Damage or Condemnation. If (i) the value of the Property destroyed or damaged or subject to taking (and/or the impact on the remainder of the Property) is equal to or less than two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price and (ii) there is no actual or threatened condemnation or eminent domain action of any direct or indirect access to or parking spaces at the Property or that would cause the Property to become non-conforming (or legal non-conforming) for zoning purposes, Buyer shall complete the transaction on the terms set forth in this Agreement and, in such event, Buyer shall receive a full assignment of all insurance proceeds paid or payable by reason of such damage or destruction or condemnation awards, as applicable, given as consideration for the taking (other than proceeds, not to exceed $20,000 without the prior written consent of Buyer, reasonably expended prior to Closing in restoration and repair of the Property by Seller, in Seller’s sole and but good faith discretion) plus a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of the deductible.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the terms of this Section 10 shall not apply to the matter described in the Report, as to which Section 2.2.5 shall control.

11. DEFAULT

11.1 Buyer’s Default.

(a) Default. Subject to Section 11.3 below, Buyer shall be deemed to be in default (a “Buyer Default”) hereunder if Buyer fails, for any reason other than Seller’s material default hereunder, to meet, comply with or perform any material covenant, agreement or obligation on its part required within the time limits and in the manner required in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the failure to deposit any Closing Funds and documents to be deposited by Buyer pursuant to Section 8.4 above on or before the Scheduled Closing Date. Time is of the essence.

(b) Liquidated Damages. IN THE EVENT THAT THE CLOSING FAILS TO OCCUR ON OR BEFORE THE SCHEDULED CLOSING DATE BY REASON OF A BUYER DEFAULT, THEN THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES SHALL TERMINATE AND THE DEPOSIT THEN HELD BY ESCROW HOLDER SHALL BE RELEASED TO SELLER. IN ADDITION, BUYER SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL ESCROW CANCELLATION AND OTHER CHARGES REQUIRED TO BE PAID TO ESCROW HOLDER. IN THE EVENT OF ANY SUCH DEFAULT BY BUYER, THE DEPOSIT SHALL BE DEEMED LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AS SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST BUYER WHICH SUM SHALL BE PRESUMED TO BE A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE AMOUNT OF ACTUAL DAMAGES SUSTAINED BY SELLER BY REASON OF SUCH BUYER DEFAULT. FROM THE NATURE OF THIS TRANSACTION, IT IS IMPRACTICABLE AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE ACTUAL DAMAGES THAT SELLER WOULD SUSTAIN, SHOULD A BUYER DEFAULT OCCUR. THE IMPRACTICABILITY AND DIFFICULTY OF FIXING ACTUAL DAMAGES IS CAUSED BY, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FACT THAT THE PROPERTY IS UNIQUE. BASED ON THE FOREGOING AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS, BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT LIQUIDATED DAMAGES ARE PARTICULARLY APPROPRIATE FOR THIS

TRANSACTION AND AGREE THAT SAID LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SHALL BE PAID IN THE EVENT OF SUCH A BUYER DEFAULT, NOTWITHSTANDING ANY WORDS OR CHARACTERIZATIONS PREVIOUSLY USED OR HEREIN CONTAINED IMPLYING ANY CONTRARY INTENT, THE PAYMENT OF SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY UNDER COLORADO LAW, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO SUCH LAW. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL, HOWEVER, BE DEEMED TO LIMIT BUYER’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 3.3 AND 8.8 ABOVE OR FOR SELLER’S RIGHT TO ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 12.13 BELOW.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any liability to the other under any circumstances for any damages, including, without limitation, consequential or punitive damages or damages suffered as a result of the other party’s failure to timely complete a tax-deferred exchange.

Buyer’s Initials

Seller’s Initials

11.2 Seller Default. Subject to Section 11.3 below, in the event Seller defaults (a “Seller Default”) under any of the material terms of this Agreement prior to Closing or any representation or warranty of Seller is untrue in any material respect as of the Effective Date or the Closing Date, Buyer shall be entitled as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy to either (A) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit plus Buyer’s Costs (as hereinafter defined), or (B) elect to pursue the remedy of specific performance of Seller’s obligation to deliver the Deed and any such other conveyance documents to Escrow Holder (without any damages of any kind), provided that (i) any such suit for specific performance must be filed within forty-five (45) days after the Scheduled Closing Date, and (ii) Buyer shall have completely and timely performed its obligations hereunder, or (C) Buyer may waive such Seller Default and proceed to Closing. Seller shall have no liability to Buyer under any circumstances for any damages, including, without limitation, consequential or punitive damages or damages suffered as a result of Buyer’s failure to timely complete a tax-deferred exchange. As material consideration to Seller’s entering into this Agreement with Buyer, Buyer waives any right to record or file a notice of lis pendens or notice of pendency of action or similar notice against any portion of the Property, except for, or in connection with, the proper exercise by Buyer of its remedy of specific performance under clause (B) of this Section 11.2 or Seller’s failure to pay Buyer’s Costs, if applicable. For purposes of this Agreement, “Buyer’s Costs” shall mean the actual expenses incurred by Buyer (with invoices or other reasonably satisfactory evidence thereof to be provided to Seller) and paid (A) to Buyer’s attorneys (including in-house attorneys) in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or the proposed purchase of the Property, (B) to third party consultants in connection with the performance of examinations, inspections and/or investigations pursuant to this Agreement and (C) to any potential lender in connection with any proposed financing of the Property, not to exceed $25,000 PLUS any non-refundable deposits to lock any rate or spread, or payments to purchase any interest rate cap, paid or payable to any proposed lender or cap provider (provided, however that Buyer shall not make any such deposit or cap payment earlier than five (5) Business Days prior to Closing) in the aggregate.

NOTHING HEREIN SHALL, HOWEVER, BE DEEMED TO LIMIT BUYER’S RIGHT TO ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 12.13 BELOW.

11.3 Notice and Opportunity to Cure. Neither party shall be deemed to be in default hereunder unless the party claiming such default shall have given written notice to the party claimed to be in default and the party claimed to be in default shall not have cured such notice of default within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice of default; provided, however, in no event shall the Closing be extended or delayed to permit the cure of a default pursuant to this Section 11.3.

11.4 No Contesting Liquidated Damages. As material consideration to each party’s agreement to the remedies provisions stated above, each party hereby agrees to waive any and all rights whatsoever to contest the amount or validity of the liquidated damages provided in Section 11.1(b) for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any defense against the terms of any such provision based on an allegation that such provision was unreasonable under the circumstances existing at the time this Agreement was made. The agreements and waivers set forth in this Section 11.4 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

11.5 Post-Closing Remedies. If, after the Closing, Buyer or Seller fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder that expressly survive the Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or Buyer or Seller first discovers that the other materially breached any of the representations or warranties as of the Effective Date or as of the Closing Date or any of the covenants under this Agreement, then Seller and Buyer may, subject to Section 11.6 or 11.7, as applicable below, and within the survival period, exercise any remedies available to it at law or in equity, in any order it deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion, including, without limitation, seeking specific performance or damages, and in such event, the liquidated damages provisions contained in Section 11.1(b) or remedies under Section 11.2 shall not apply.

11.6 Seller’s Maximum Aggregate Liability; Claims Period. Other than Seller’s express indemnity obligations hereunder and its obligations for payment of attorneys fees under Section, 12.13, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any documents executed by Seller pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, the maximum aggregate liability of Seller under Section 11.5 of this Agreement and any and all documents executed and delivered at Closing (including, without limitation, the breach of any representations and warranties and/or covenants of Seller contained in such documents) for which a claim is timely made by Buyer shall not exceed one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price. Any action, suit or proceeding brought by Buyer against Seller under this Agreement shall be commenced and served, if at all, on or before the date which is three hundred sixty-five (365) days after the Closing and, if not commenced and served on or before such date, thereafter shall be void and of no force and effect. No claim for a breach by Seller of any representation or warranty or any other provision of this Agreement shall be actionable or payable (a) if the breach in question is reasonably identifiable based on a condition, state of facts or other matter set forth in the Seller Due Diligence Materials, the Buyer Due Diligence Materials or otherwise actually known to Buyer prior to Closing, (b) unless the valid claims for all such breaches collectively aggregate more than Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000), in which event

the full amount of such claims shall be actionable, subject to this Section 11.6, and (c) unless an action shall have been commenced by Buyer against Seller within twelve (12) months of Closing.

11.7 Buyer’s Maximum Aggregate Liability; Claims Period. Other than Buyer’s express indemnity obligations hereunder and its obligations for payment of attorneys fees under Section, 12.13, below, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any documents executed by Buyer pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, the maximum aggregate liability of Buyer under Section 11.5 of this Agreement and any and all documents executed and delivered at Closing (including, without limitation, the breach of any representations and warranties and/or covenants of Buyer contained in such documents) for which a claim is timely made by Seller shall not exceed one and one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price. Any action, suit or proceeding brought by Seller against Buyer under this Agreement shall be commenced and served, if at all, on or before the date which is three hundred sixty-five (365) days after the Closing and, if not commenced and served on or before such date, thereafter shall be void and of no force and effect. No claim for a breach by Buyer of any representation or warranty or any other provision of this Agreement shall be actionable or payable (a) if the breach in question is actually known to Seller prior to Closing, (b) unless the valid claims for all such breaches collectively aggregate more than Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000), in which event the full amount of such claims shall be actionable, subject to this Section 11.7, and (c) unless an action shall have been commenced by Seller against Buyer within twelve (12) months of Closing.

12. MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Definition of Business Day. For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or a holiday observed by national or federally chartered banks. Unless the context otherwise requires, all periods terminating on a given day, period of days, or date shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. (Colorado time) on such date or dates, and references to "days" shall refer to calendar days, except if such references are to Business Days.

If any party files for protection under, or voluntarily or involuntarily becomes subject to, any chapter of the United States Bankruptcy Code or similar state insolvency laws, any other party shall be entitled to any and all Fees incurred to protect such party’s interest and other rights under this Agreement, whether or not such action results in a discharge.

12.14 No Personal Liability of Officers, Directors, Etc.

Signature pages may be detached from the counterparts and attached to a single copy of this Agreement to form one document.

12.17 Electronic Signatures. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile or by electronic transmission shall be valid and effective to bind the party so signing. Each party agrees to promptly deliver an execution original to this Agreement with its actual signature to the other party, but a failure to do so shall not affect the enforceability of this Agreement, it being expressly agreed that each party to this Agreement shall be bound by its own telecopied or scanned signature and shall accept the telecopied or scanned signature of the other party to this Agreement.

Every buyer of any interest in residential real property on which a residential dwelling was built prior to 1978 is notified that such property may present exposure to lead from lead-based paint that may place young children at risk of developing lead poisoning. Lead poisoning in young children may produce permanent neurological damage, including learning disabilities, reduced intelligence quotient, behavioral problems and impaired memory. Lead poisoning also poses a particular risk to pregnant women. The Seller of any interest in residential real property is required to provide the Buyer with any information on lead-based paint hazards from risk assessments or inspections in the Seller's possession and notify the Buyer of any known lead-based paint hazards. A risk assessment or inspection for possible lead-based paint hazards is recommended prior to purchase.

13. JURY TRIAL WAIVER. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO WHICH SELLER AND/OR BUYER MAY BE PARTIES ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO, THIS AGREEMENT. THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY THE PARTIES AND EACH HEREBY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO THE OTHER THAT NO REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT OR OPINION HAVE BEEN MADE BY ANY INDIVIDUAL TO INDUCE THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR TO IN ANY WAY MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT. EACH PARTY FURTHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO THE OTHER THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION SHALL SURVIVE CLOSING OR THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

14. RECORD ACCESS AND RETENTION. Seller shall promptly provide to Buyer (at Buyer’s expense) copies of, or shall provide Buyer reasonable access to, such factual information as may be reasonably requested by Buyer, and in the possession or control of Seller, or its property manager or accountants, to enable Buyer’s auditor to conduct an audit, in accordance with Rule 3-14 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X, of the income statements of the Property for the year to date of the year in which Closing occurs plus the two (2) immediately preceding calendar years (provided, however, that other than fees paid or payable to Seller, a Seller affiliate or a third party for on-site property management, such audit shall not include an audit of asset management fees internally allocated by Seller (as opposed to paid to a third party) or interest expenses attributable to the Seller). In no event shall Seller be obligated to deliver any Excluded Documents to Buyer. Buyer shall be responsible for all out-of-pocket costs associated with this audit, including without limitation any costs payable to its property manager or other third-party in order to accommodate Buyer’s rights under this paragraph. Seller shall reasonably cooperate (at no cost to Seller) with Buyer’s auditor in the conduct of such audit. In addition, Seller agrees to provide to Buyer or any affiliate of Buyer, if requested by such auditor, historical financial statements for the Property, including (without limitation) income and balance sheet data for the Property, whether required before or after Closing. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) Buyer or its designated independent or other auditor may audit Seller’s operating statements of the Property, at Buyer’s expense, and Seller shall provide such documentation as Buyer or its auditor may reasonably request in order to complete such audit, and (ii) Seller shall furnish to Buyer such financial and other information as may be reasonably required by Buyer or any affiliate of Buyer to make any required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other governmental authority. Seller’s obligation to maintain its records for use under this Section 21 shall be an on-going condition to Buyer’s obligation to Close Escrow, and Seller shall maintain its records for use under this Section 21 for a period of not less than two (2) years after the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing.

15. Parallel Agreement. Seller (or an affiliate thereof) and Buyer have entered into a separate Purchase and Sale Agreement as of the Effective Date (the “Parallel Agreement”) relating to the sale of Bella Terra at City Center, 00000 Xxxx Xxxxx Xxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Buyer shall have no right to purchase, and the Seller shall be under no obligation to sell, the Property unless the transactions contemplated by the Parallel Agreement are consummated (the “Parallel Sale”), it being the express intention and agreement between Buyer and Seller that, as an inducement to Seller and Buyer to enter into this Agreement, Buyer and Seller (or an affiliate thereof) have entered into the Parallel Agreement. If Buyer terminates the Parallel Agreement under Section 3.5 of the Parallel Agreement, this Agreement shall automatically terminate (other than the provisions that expressly survive termination) and the Deposit, less the Independent Consideration, shall be returned to Buyer. Similarly, if Buyer terminates this Agreement under Section 3.5, above, the Parallel Agreement shall automatically terminate (other than the provisions that expressly survive termination) and the Deposit, less the Independent Consideration, shall be returned to Buyer under the Parallel Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Parallel Agreement is consummated and Buyer or Seller thereafter fail to close the transaction that is the subject of this Agreement, the parties shall

be entitled to their rights and remedies under this Agreement but the Parallel Sale shall not be subject to rescission or otherwise to legal action, whether or law or in equity, arising solely from the failure to close under this Agreement.
