Xxxxxxx (“Xxxxxxx”), Xxxxxxx Capital, LLC (“Natelli Capital”), TN Investments, LLC (“TN”) and Xxxxxxx Communities LP (“Communities” and together with Xxxxxxx, Vicari, Natelli, Natelli Capital and TN, the “Investors”).
THE PARTIES ENTER THIS AGREEMENT on the basis of the following facts, understandings and intentions:
WHEREAS, the REIT proposes to undertake an underwritten initial public offering (the “Offering”) of common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share (“Shares”) pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-11 (the “Registration Statement”) filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); and
WHEREAS, the Investors desire to purchase the respective number of Shares set forth opposite the name of each such Investor on Schedule A attached hereto directly from the REIT in a private transaction as set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
1. Each Investor hereby agrees to purchase the respective number of Shares set forth opposite the name of each such Investor on Schedule A attached hereto directly from the REIT on the terms set forth herein. The purchase price per Share purchased by each Investor shall be the initial public offering price set forth in the final prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement for the Offering (the “Prospectus”).
2. The Investors understand and agree that their purchase of Shares hereunder is being made pursuant to a private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and Shares purchased hereunder may not be sold, transferred or conveyed by any Investor except in compliance with applicable securities laws.
3. The purchase price for Shares shall be paid by means of a cash payment (wire transfer or other means acceptable to the REIT) and shall close at the time of closing of the Offering. The closing of the sale of Shares to an Investor shall be conditioned solely on the closing of the Offering and shall not be conditioned on the completion of the sale of Shares to any other Investor or upon consummation of any other concurrent private placement described in the Prospectus.
4. The Investors hereby agree that their purchase of Shares may be described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

6. This Agreement shall terminate if the closing of the Offering shall not have occurred on or before March 31, 2010.
