Seller shall (or shall cause its Affiliates to) convey title to Purchaser or its designees as Purchaser may request.

2.2 Purchase Price.

2.2.1 Payment of Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Transferred Assets shall be Two Hundred Forty-Four Million Dollars ($244,000,000) (the “Base Purchase Price”). The Base Purchase Price may be adjusted prior to Closing in accordance with this Section 2.2 (as so adjusted, the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price and any other amounts due pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid on the date (the “Closing Date”) of the closing under this Agreement (the “Closing”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller.

2.2.2 Base Purchase Price Adjustments Prior to Closing.

(a) To the extent Seller and its Affiliates have the contractual right to cause or prevent a Transfer of any Assets other than the Transferred Loans (the “Controlled Assets”), Seller and its Affiliates shall not cause or permit any such Transfer to be contracted for between the date hereof and the Closing, other than as described on Schedule 2.2.2(a), unless Purchaser has consented thereto, which consent shall set forth a minimum credit to be given to Purchaser on the Base Purchase Price as a result of the Transfer of such interest (the “Minimum Credit”). If, between the date hereof and the Closing, there is a Transfer of any non-Controlled Asset (other than a Transferred Loan), the Minimum Credit shall be $1.20 for every dollar of Projected Credits that will be lost as a result of the Transfer of such non-Controlled Asset.

(b) Within two (2) Business Days of learning that a Transfer has been consummated, Seller shall submit to Purchaser a statement identifying (i) the Assets other than Transferred Loans (if any) that have been Transferred since the Effective Date and with respect to which proceeds of the Transfer have been received by Seller or its Affiliates (any such Transfer, a “Property Sale”), and (ii) Transferred Loans (if any) that have been amortized, prepaid or Transferred since November 19, 2015 and with respect to which the amortization proceeds, prepayment proceeds or proceeds of Transfer have been received by Seller or its Affiliates (any such transaction, a “Loan Prepayment”). Such updates are collectively referred to as the

“Closing Update.” If there has been a Property Sale after the Effective Date and prior to Closing, the Base Purchase Price shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar by the greater of (i) the amount actually received by Seller or its Affiliates as a result of such transaction, or (ii) the Minimum Credit for such Property Sale. If there has been a Loan Prepayment after November 19, 20152 and prior to Closing, the Base Purchase Price shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar by the amount actually received on account of principal in the case of amortization proceeds or prepayment proceeds and, in the case of a Transfer, by the greater of (i) the amount actually received by Seller or its Affiliates from such transaction other than any prepayment fees or penalties, or (ii) the outstanding principal amount as shown on Schedule 2. For the avoidance of doubt, if there has been a Loan Prepayment, all proceeds thereof shall be the property of Seller and its Affiliates. In addition, prior to Closing the Seller shall provide to Purchaser a schedule setting forth the amount of accrued but unpaid interest as of Closing for the month of December with respect to the Transferred Loans, and the Base Purchase Price shall be increased by such amount. In the event Seller receives any interest for which the Base Purchase Price has been increased, Seller shall promptly remit the payment to Purchaser or its designee.

2.2.3 Access. In connection with the Closing Update, Seller shall provide Purchaser with reasonable access to information reasonably appropriate to confirm the accuracy thereof, including regularly maintained electronic tapes of the Property, Operating Partnership Interest, Equity Interest and Transferred Loan portfolios, and documents and agreements related thereto.

2.3No Financing Contingency. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement are not in any way conditioned upon obtaining any financing for all or any portion of the Transferred Assets for any of the amounts payable by Purchaser hereunder.

2.4Transfer Taxes. Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the payment of, and shall pay, any transfer, recording, deed or similar taxes that may be payable as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and Purchaser shall and does hereby indemnify and hold harmless each of Seller and its Affiliates with respect thereto.

2.5Due Diligence; Deposit.

(a) Purchaser shall have from the date hereof through and including Closing (or earlier termination of this Agreement), in which to perform Purchaser’s due diligence of the Assets. Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly provide Purchaser with any requested due diligence materials within Seller’s possession or control.

(b) On the Effective Date Purchaser is depositing Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Initial Deposit”) into an account (the “Escrow Account”) with Xxxxx Fargo as escrow agent pursuant to an Escrow Agreement entered into by the parties. The Initial Deposit shall be non-refundable as of the Effective Date, and shall be promptly released to Seller in the event this Agreement terminates prior to Closing, and Purchaser shall, as of such time, have no rights with respect thereto.

(c) If the Closing has not occurred on or prior to 11:59 P.M. Eastern time on December 10, 2015, Purchaser shall then deposit an additional Five Million Dollars

($5,000,000) into the Escrow Account. If the Closing has not occurred on or prior to 11:59 P.M. Eastern time on December 16, 2015, Purchaser shall then deposit an additional Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) into the Escrow Account. If the Closing has not occurred on or prior to 11:59 P.M. Eastern time on December 23, 2015, Purchaser shall then deposit an additional Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) into the Escrow Account. At the time of depositing any additional amounts into the Escrow Account pursuant to this Section 2.5(c), Purchaser shall simultaneously provide to Seller a written list of any remaining outstanding due diligence items required by Purchaser and Purchaser’s expected timing to Closing. All amounts deposited into the Escrow Account pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) are referred to as the “Additional Deposit.” In the event the Closing has not occurred prior to 11:59 P.M. Eastern time on December 31, 2015, the entire Additional Deposit shall be promptly released to Seller at such time, and Purchaser shall, as of such time, have no rights with respect thereto.

(d) At Closing, the Initial Deposit and the Additional Deposit and any earnings thereon shall be released to Seller and thereby applied to the Purchase Price.

2.6Pre-Closing Organizational Changes.

2.6.1 Reorganization. Purchaser acknowledges that prior to the Closing, Seller and its Affiliates may undertake a reorganization (the “Reorganization”) that includes, among other things, (i) the transfer of (A) some or all of the assets and liabilities of Seller and/or certain of its Affiliates (which may include the Transferred Loans) and (B) some or all of the shares of direct or indirect subsidiaries of Seller (which may include the Equity Interests), in each case, to one or more direct or indirect subsidiaries of General Electric Company and (ii) the merger of Seller with and into General Electric Company. Purchaser agrees that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict the consummation of (or any agreements to consummate) the Reorganization; it being agreed that Seller or its successor shall cause all of the Transferred Assets transferred by it or any of its Affiliates in the Reorganization to be transferred to Purchaser at the Closing to the same extent as is required of Seller hereunder. If the Reorganization shall occur prior to the Closing, then at the Closing Purchaser shall acquire the Transferred Assets from the then current owners of the Transferred Assets. Each of Seller and Purchaser understands and agrees that any transfers, assignments, sales or other dispositions of assets, interests, rights, capital stock or otherwise made pursuant to the Reorganization, shall be made on an “AS-IS,” “WHERE-IS” basis, without representation or warranty of any kind, and without recourse to the person making such transfer, assignment, sale or other disposition, and without recourse to the recipient thereof. The foregoing shall not limit any of the representations, warranties or covenants made by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, or the liability of any successor by merger for the accuracy of Seller’s representations and warranties or for the violation of any of Seller’s covenants.

2.6.2 WNC XXIII. On or before December 28, 2015, Seller shall cause DLE Investors, L.P. (“DLE”) to relinquish to WNC Fund XXIII, L.P. that portion of its interest in such Fund as shall be necessary to reduce DLE’s interest in such Fund below, but as close as practicable to, fifty percent (50%). Such relinquishment shall not affect the Purchase Price unless the percentage is reduced below forty-nine and nine-tenths percent (49.9%).

2.7Retention of Rights.

(a) Seller shall be entitled to all Tax Credit adjuster and guaranty payments attributable to the loss, disallowance or recapture of any Tax Credits allocable to a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary for any period ending on or prior to the Closing Date. Purchaser shall be entitled to all Tax Credit adjuster and guaranty payments attributable to the loss, disallowance or recapture of any Tax Credits allocable to a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary for any period beginning after the Closing Date. If the aggregate amount of any Tax Credit adjuster or guaranty payments received by the Parties or a Transferred Company or Subsidiary with respect to an Operating Partnership is less than the full amount payable under the applicable Organizational Documents and related guaranty and indemnification agreements, such aggregate amount shall be shared by the Parties in proportion to the respective amounts that would have been payable to each Party if such full amount had been received.

(b) Nothing in this Agreement nor in any Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall in any way alter or diminish any indemnification rights of Seller or any of the Transferred Companies and Subsidiaries under the Organizational Documents of any Fund or Operating Partnership, as well as any related guaranty or indemnification agreements with any Affiliate thereof, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Closing Date.

(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent (i) Seller from making a claim against a Fund, any Operating Partnership or Affiliate thereof for any amount of Tax Credit adjuster or guaranty payment payable to a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary with respect to any period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, or (ii) Purchaser from making a claim against a Fund, any Operating Partnership or any Affiliate thereof for any amount of Tax Credit adjuster or guaranty payment payable to a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary with respect to any period beginning after the Closing Date. Neither party shall have any liability of any kind or nature whatsoever to the other for any failure by a Fund or Operating Partnership to pay to such other party any Tax Credit adjuster or guaranty payment due to such other Party under any Organizational Document or any related guaranty or indemnification agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.7 to the contrary, Seller shall not initiate any type of proceeding against any general partner or managing member of a Fund or an Operating Partnership if such general partner or managing member is an Affiliate of Purchaser or any of its members.

Tax Matters.

6.1Definitions.

“Tax” or “Taxes” means any and all forms of taxation imposed by a government entity, including all federal, state, local or foreign taxes or any other tax, custom duty or governmental fee, or other like assessment charge of any kind, including any interest, penalty or addition thereto, whether disputed or not.

“Tax Returns” means any return, declaration, report, claim for refund or information return or statement relating to Taxes, including any schedule or attachment thereto, and including any amendment thereof, required to be filed with a tax authority.

“Recapture” means a recapture of any previously claimed Tax Credits pursuant to Section 42(j) of the Code and includes any penalties and interest assessed in connection therewith.

6.2Pre-Closing Period. Seller shall prepare all Tax Returns of the Transferred Companies and Subsidiaries for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Periods”). All such Tax Returns shall be prepared consistent with the past practices of Seller unless otherwise required by applicable law. Seller shall timely file, or cause to be timely filed, each Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period and timely pay, or cause to be timely paid, all Taxes shown as due thereon. Seller shall provide Purchaser with a copy of any such Tax Returns which are filed by a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary within thirty (30) days of such filing. Nothing in this Section 6.2 shall be interpreted to require Seller or Affiliates thereof to provide to Purchaser or Affiliates thereof any consolidated or group or combined or unitary Tax Returns in which any Transferred Company or Subsidiary may be a participant for periods prior to the Closing Date.

6.3Straddle Period. Purchaser shall prepare and file all Tax Returns of the Transferred Companies and Subsidiaries for periods including the Closing Date but ending after the Closing Date (“Straddle Tax Periods”). All Tax Returns for Straddle Tax Periods shall be prepared consistent with the past practices of the Seller unless (i) otherwise required by applicable law, or (ii) Seller consents to a change from past practices (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Purchaser shall provide to Seller a draft of each Tax Return for a Straddle Tax Period no later than forty-five (45) days prior to the applicable due date, including any applicable extensions (unless the applicable due date is less than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, in which case Purchaser shall provide to Seller such draft Tax Return on the date that is midway between the Closing Date and the applicable due date). Seller shall have fifteen (15) days from the receipt thereof to provide Purchaser with any comments or proposed adjustments to such draft Tax Return, and any such comments or proposed adjustments shall be considered by Purchaser in good faith. If Seller has no objections to such draft Tax Return, or if Purchaser agrees to the changes proposed by Seller, such draft Tax Return shall be binding upon Seller. If Purchaser and Seller cannot resolve any disagreements with respect to a proposed Tax Return for a Straddle Tax Period within ten (10) days prior to the applicable due date, Purchaser and Seller jointly shall select an independent tax expert to resolve such differences, with the fees and costs of such tax expert to be borne fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser and fifty percent (50%) by Seller, and with the

decision of such tax expert as to any matters in dispute between Purchaser and Seller to be binding and conclusive on all Parties. Seller shall pay to Purchaser at least five (5) Business Days prior to the due date of such Straddle Period Tax Return the amount of any Tax due and payable with respect to such Tax Return for which Seller is responsible pursuant to Section 6.6 hereof. Seller shall be entitled to all Tax refunds of or attributable to the Transferred Companies and any Subsidiaries for Pre-Closing Tax Periods and the portion of any Straddle Tax Period ending on the Closing Date, unless (i) such Tax refund is attributable to the carryback from a taxable period commencing after the Closing Date or the portion of any Straddle Tax Period beginning after the Closing Date of items of loss, deduction or credit, or other Tax items, of the Transferred Companies or any Subsidiaries (or any of their respective Affiliates, including the Purchaser) or (ii) otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. Purchaser shall be responsible for preparing and filing all other Tax Returns of the Transferred Companies and Subsidiaries. Nothing in this Section 6.3 shall be interpreted as to require Seller or Affiliates thereof to provide to Purchaser or Affiliates thereof any consolidated or group or combined or unitary Tax Returns in which any Transferred Company or Subsidiary may be a participant for periods prior to the Closing Date.

6.4Cooperation. Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, any Tax audit, Tax claim, Tax litigation, claim for Tax refund or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return filing, Tax audit, Tax claim, Tax litigation or other Tax proceeding, providing powers of attorney, assisting with the signing and filing of Tax appeals and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Parties agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary relating to any Pre‑Closing Tax Period until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax authority for all periods required by such Tax authority.

6.5Allocations. Seller shall cause all tax allocation agreements or tax sharing agreements between Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Transferred Company, on the other hand, to be terminated as of the Closing Date, and shall ensure that such agreements are of no further force or effect as to any Transferred Company on and after the Closing Date and that there shall be no further liabilities or obligations imposed on any Transferred Company under any such agreements.

6.6Responsibility for Taxes. Except for those liabilities described in Section 2.4 of this Agreement, Seller shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies and Subsidiaries) from and against, (a) all liabilities for Taxes assessed against a Transferred Company or any Subsidiary with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or that portion of a Straddle Tax Period ending at the end of business on the Closing Date. Purchaser shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify Seller and its Affiliates from and against, all liabilities for Taxes assessed against a Transferred Company or any Subsidiary with respect to any Tax period commencing after the Closing Date or that portion of any Straddle Tax Period commencing on the day after the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, the amount of any Tax that is attributable to the portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing date shall

be: (a) in the case of a Tax that is based on net income or receipts, the amount of such Tax that would be due with respect to the portion of the Straddle Period beginning before and ending on the Closing Date if such portion were a separate taxable period, except that exemptions, allowances, deductions, or credits that are calculated on an annual basis shall be apportioned on a per diem basis, and (b) in the case of any Tax not described in clause (a) above, the total amount of such Tax for the Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period.

6.7Responsibility for Recapture.

(a) Seller shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies and Subsidiaries) from and against, all liabilities for Recapture amounts assessed against a Transferred Company or any Subsidiary with respect to Tax Credits claimed for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or that portion of a Straddle Tax Period ending at the end of business on the Closing Date except to the extent such Recapture resulted from the fraud or willful misconduct of Purchaser. Purchaser shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify Seller and its Affiliates from and against, all liabilities for Recapture amounts assessed against Seller, a Transferred Company or any Subsidiary with respect to any Tax Credits claimed for a Tax period commencing after the Closing Date or that portion of any Straddle Tax Period commencing on the day after the Closing Date except to the extent such Recapture resulted from the fraud or willful misconduct of Seller.

(b) Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts, which shall be consistent with the practices employed by its partners or members in the management of other Tax Credit investments, to minimize any Recapture of Tax Credits claimed by a Transferred Company or Subsidiary for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or that portion of a Straddle Tax Period ending at the end of business on the Closing Date. In furtherance thereof, if Purchaser is notified by a Fund sponsor or Affiliate thereof that a foreclosure or similar event may occur with respect to an Indirect Operating Partnership, such efforts shall include advising such Fund sponsor or Affiliate to use any available reserves to avoid such foreclosure or similar event.

(c) Promptly after Purchaser is notified that a material default has occurred with respect to a loan to an Operating Partnership, which default may result in a Recapture of Tax Credits claimed by a Transferred Company or Subsidiary with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or that portion of a Straddle Tax Period ending at the end of business on the Closing Date, Purchaser shall in turn notify Seller of such material default. If Seller advises Purchaser that it desires (at Seller’s expense) to cure such default in order to avoid such Recapture, Purchaser shall, at Seller’s expense (but only with respect to out-of-pocket expenses payable to third parties), cooperate with Seller to facilitate Seller’s efforts to cure such default.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall have no obligation to make any loans or capital contributions or to otherwise advance any funds to prevent a Recapture event, and the failure to do so shall not create or increase any indemnity on the part of Purchaser to Seller hereunder or diminish or decrease any indemnity on the part of Seller to Purchaser hereunder.

6.8Tax Proceedings. Seller shall have the right to control any tax audit or other tax proceeding which (a) relates exclusively to a Pre-Closing Tax Period of a Transferred Company or any Subsidiary, or (b) involves a consolidated or combined return filed by Seller or its parent for periods ending on or before December 31, 2015. Purchaser shall have the right to control any other tax audit or tax proceeding; provided, however, Seller shall have the right to participate, at its own expense, in such proceeding to the extent that such proceeding relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, and Purchasers shall not enter into any settlement or otherwise compromise any such Tax matter that materially affects the liability of the Seller pursuant to Section 6.6 hereof without the prior written consent of the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld, or delayed.

6.9Section 336(e) Election.

(a) The Section 336(e) Sellers shall make and file timely elections under Section 336(e) of the Code with respect to the acquisition of the Section 336(e) Targets and any corresponding available elections under state, local or foreign Tax Law (collectively, the “Section 336(e) Election”). Purchaser agrees to provide Seller with such information and cooperation as the Seller may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of any document or Tax Return necessary to effect the Section 336(e) Election, including IRS Form 8883 (Asset Allocation Statement under Section 338) (“Form 8883”).

(b) For purposes of the Section 336(e) Election, within twenty (20) days following the Effective Date, Purchaser shall provide Seller with a proposed allocation of the “adjusted grossed-up basis” as defined in Treasury Regulation 1.336-4(a) (“AGUB”) among the assets of the Section 336(e) Targets in accordance with the applicable Treasury Regulations (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 6.9(b) and including any subsequent adjustment thereto pursuant to this Section 6.9(b), the “Section 336(e) Allocation”). In the case of any adjustment to the AGUB requiring an amendment to the Section 336(e) Allocation, Purchaser shall prepare such amendment and such amended Section 336(e) Allocation shall, subject to the review and dispute resolution provisions of this Section 6.9(b), become the Section 336(e) Allocation. Upon receipt from Purchaser, Seller shall have fifteen (15) days to review the determinations set forth in the Section 336(e) Allocation (the “Section 336(e) Allocation Review Period”). At Purchaser’s request, Seller (x) shall reasonably cooperate and assist, and shall cause its representatives to assist, Purchaser and its representatives in the preparation of the Section 336(e) Allocation, and (y) shall provide Purchaser and its representatives with any information reasonably requested by them in connection with the Section 336(e) Allocation. If Seller disagrees with any determinations set forth on the AGUB or the Section 336(e) Allocation, Seller shall, on or prior to the last day of the Section 336(e) Allocation Review Period, deliver a written notice to Purchaser (the “Section 336(e) Allocation Notice of Objection”), setting forth its objections. Unless Seller delivers the Section 336(e) Allocation Notice of Objection to Purchaser within the Section 336(e) Allocation Review Period, Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the determinations set forth in the Section 336(e) Allocation. If Seller delivers the Section 336(e) Allocation Notice of Objection to Purchaser within the Section 336(e) Allocation Review Period, Seller and Purchaser shall, prior to Closing, use their commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed determinations. If as of Closing, Purchaser and Seller cannot resolve any disagreements with respect to the Section 336(e) Allocation, Purchaser and Seller jointly shall within five (5) Business Days select an independent tax or valuation expert to resolve such differences, with the fees and

costs of such tax or valuation expert to be borne fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser and fifty percent (50%) by Seller, and with the decision of such tax or valuation expert as to any matters in dispute between Purchaser and Seller to be binding and conclusive on all Parties. The parties shall duly select a tax or valuation expert who commits in writing to resolve the disagreement on or before January 31, 2016. The Parties agree not to take any position, in connection with any Tax Return, audit or similar proceeding related to Taxes, that is inconsistent with the Section 336(e) Allocation as prepared (or resolved) pursuant to this Section 6.9(b) unless otherwise required by law.

(c) Seller shall bear all costs and expenses (other than accounting and tax return preparation fees relating to periods commencing after the Closing Date) charged by any Fund or Operating Partnership as a result of any technical termination of a Fund or Operating Partnership resulting from Seller’s Section 336(e) Election.

Purchaser acknowledges that it is informed as to the risks of the transactions contemplated hereby and of ownership of the Equity Interests. Purchaser acknowledges that the Equity Interests have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state or foreign securities laws and that the Equity Interests may not be sold, transferred, offered

for sale, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless such transfer, sale, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition is pursuant to the terms of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Equity Interests are registered under any applicable state or foreign securities laws or sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state or foreign securities laws.

7.3.3 Investigation. Purchaser is knowledgeable about the affordable housing industry and the merits and risks associated with direct or indirect investments in or loans to entities that own and operate residential real estate projects that generate Tax Credits. Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Transferred Assets, and of its indirect investment in the Funds, the Operating Partnerships and the Properties, and has the ability to bear the economic risks of such investment. Purchaser further represents that it has been afforded reasonable access to information about the Transferred Assets, the Funds, the Operating Partnerships and the Properties for purposes of conducting a due diligence investigation of the Transferred Assets, the Funds, the Operating Partnerships and the Properties. In connection therewith, Purchaser has received answers to all inquiries it has made with respect to the Transferred Assets, the Funds, the Operating Partnerships and the Properties that are satisfactory to Purchaser. Purchaser does not have any knowledge of any inaccuracy or failure to be true of any of the representations or warranties of Seller in Sections 7.1 and 7.2.

7.3.4 No Inducement or Reliance; Independent Assessment. Purchaser has not been induced by and has not relied upon any representations, warranties or statements, whether express or implied, made by Seller or its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives that are not expressly set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 (including the Schedules thereto), whether or not any such representations, warranties or statements were made in writing or orally. Purchaser acknowledges that none of Seller or its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives makes, will make or has made any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the prospects of the Transferred Companies or their profitability for Purchaser, or with respect to any forecasts, projections or business plans made available to Purchaser or its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives in connection with Purchaser’s due diligence review of the Transferred Assets and the Funds, the Operating Partnerships and the Properties.

Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to Closing only (a) by mutual written agreement of Purchaser and Seller, (b) after 12:00 P.M. Eastern time December 31, 2015 by either Purchaser or Seller if such Party is not in breach hereof and the Closing has not occurred by such date, provided that, if the Closing has not occurred by such date because the non-performing party is prevented from performing solely as a result of a Force Majeure Event, such date will be extended until the Force Majeure Event has been resolved, (c) by either Purchaser or Seller upon entry of a non-appealable injunction by a court or other government authority of competent jurisdiction (x) prohibiting the consummation of the transactions or (y) that would have a material adverse effect on the Transferred Assets, the Funds, the Operating Partnerships or the Properties, or (d) by Seller if Purchaser fails to provide any one or more of the deposits as and when required by Section 2.5. Subject to the limitations in Section 16.2(f), no termination shall relieve any Party

from liabilities for breach or failure to comply with any covenant hereunder prior to such termination and the provisions of Sections 2.5, 16.2(f), and 26 shall survive any such termination.

Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and permitted assigns of the Parties. Neither Party may assign (whether by operation of law or otherwise) this Agreement or any rights, interests or obligations provided by this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that either Party may assign this Agreement and any or all rights and obligations under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates upon prior written notice to the other Party; provided, further, that no such assignment shall release either Party from any liability under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to the Reorganization (a) Seller may assign this Agreement or any or all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any Affiliate with a net worth in excess of $500,000,000 that expressly assumes all of the obligations of Seller hereunder, in which case upon any such permitted assignment by Seller (i) the references in this Agreement to Seller shall apply to such assignee unless the context otherwise requires and (ii) Seller shall automatically and unconditionally be released and discharged from any liability or obligation under this Agreement without the requirement of any further action by any Person and (b) if Seller is merged or otherwise ceases to exist, Seller’s successor shall confirm in writing that it has assumed all of Seller’s obligations hereunder.

Damages and Remedies

16.1Expiration of Representations and Warranties. All of the indemnity obligations of the parties set forth in this Agreement shall terminate and expire, and shall cease to be of any force or effect, at 5:00 P.M. (Eastern time) on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, and all liability and indemnification obligations with respect thereto shall thereupon be extinguished; provided, however, that (a) the representations and warranties in Sections 7.2.2(a) through (c), 7.2.2(f), 7.2.3(a), (b), (d), 7.2.10, and 7.2.15(a) shall survive until the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, (b) the representations and warranties in Sections 7.1 and 7.2.1 shall survive indefinitely and (c) the provisions of Section 2.4 shall survive for 18 months after Closing. It is the express intent of the parties that, if the applicable survival period as contemplated by this Section 16.1 is shorter than the statute of limitations period that would otherwise have been applicable, then by virtue of this Agreement, the applicable statute of limitations period shall be reduced to the shortened survival period contemplated by this Section 16.1. If notice of a claim has been given by an indemnitee party the limitations of this Section 16.1 shall not apply to such claim until it is finally resolved. The parties further acknowledge that the time periods set forth in this Section 16.1 for the assertion of claims under this Agreement are the result of arms’-length negotiation among the parties and that they intend for the time periods to be enforced as agreed among the parties.

16.2Indemnification

(a) By Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of this Section 16, from and after the Closing, Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, members, partners, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, “Seller Indemnitees”) from and against all Losses incurred by any of the Seller Indemnitees arising out of or relating to: (i) any breach of any representation

or warranty made by Purchaser in Section 7 of this Agreement or (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Purchaser contained in this Agreement.

(b) By Seller. Subject to the provisions of this Section 16, from and after the Closing, Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, members, partners, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, “Purchaser Indemnitees”) from and against all Losses incurred by any of Purchaser Indemnitees arising out of or relating to: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in Section 7 of this Agreement, (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Agreement, or (iii) the failure of Seller to have obtained any Required Consents. To the extent an indemnifiable Loss under this paragraph consists of the loss of Projected Credits or Recapture, Seller shall indemnify Purchaser for the loss of Projected Credits and Recapture at the rate of $1.20 for each dollar of Projected Credits lost or Tax Credits Recaptured plus any interest or penalties.

(i) Seller shall not be required to indemnify Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to any Losses unless and until the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds $500,000, in which event Purchaser Indemnitees will be entitled to recover Losses arising out of or relating to such matters only to the extent in excess thereof (the “Deductible”). Seller’s maximum liability to Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to any claim for indemnification arising out of or relating to matters described in Section 16.2(b) shall not exceed $30,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Cap”).

(ii) Seller shall not be required to indemnify Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to any claim for indemnification arising out of or relating to matters described in Section 16.2(b) made by any Purchaser Indemnitee after Closing if the facts and circumstances giving rise to such claim are known to the Purchaser Indemnitee prior to the Closing or if, as the result of exercise of reasonable diligence and review, determined with due regard for Seller’s desire to close by December 31, 2015, should have been known to the Purchaser Indemnitee prior to the Closing.

(iii) Purchaser shall not be required to indemnify Seller Indemnitees with respect to any Losses unless and until the aggregate of all such Losses exceeds the Deductible, in which event Seller Indemnitees will be entitled to recover Losses arising out of or relating to such matters only to the extent in excess thereof and only up to the Cap.

(iv) Neither party shall have any obligation to indemnify the other to the extent the Loss arises from the fraud, willful misconduct, or the material breach of this Agreement by the indemnified party.

(v) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any indemnification claim involving Losses of less than $50,000 (the “De Minimus Amount”) shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 16.2 and shall not be counted toward satisfaction of the Deductible. No Losses shall be included in determining whether the Deductible has been reached unless a notice seeking indemnification for such Losses has been given by the indemnified parties in accordance with Section 16.2(d). The Deductible shall not apply to Seller’s obligation to indemnify Purchaser Indemnitees under Section 16.2(b)(iii). In addition, neither the Deductible

nor the De Minimus Amount exception shall apply to either (A) Purchaser’s obligations under Section 2.4 with respect to Transfer Taxes or (B) Seller’s obligations under Section 6.6 with respect to Taxes attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or that portion of a Straddle Tax Period ending at the end of business on the Closing Date.

(d) Procedure.

(i) Direct Claims. If either a Purchaser Indemnitee, on the one hand, or a Seller Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall have a claim for indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnitee”) for any claim other than a claim asserted by a third party, the Indemnitee shall, as promptly as is practicable, give written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnitor”) of the nature and, to the extent practicable, a good faith estimate of the amount, of the claim. The failure to make prompt delivery of such written notice by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor (so long as a notice pursuant to this Section 16.2(d)(i), including the requisite certification, is given before the expiration of the applicable period set forth in Section 16.1) shall not relieve the Indemnitor from any liability under this Section 16.2 with respect to such matter, except to the extent the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced by failure to give such notice.

(ii) Third-Party Actions. If an Indemnitee receives notice or otherwise obtains knowledge of any matter or any threatened matter that may give rise to an indemnification claim against the Indemnitor (the “Third Party Claim”), then the Indemnitee shall promptly, and in any event within twenty (20) days of the receipt of notice or other knowledge of any such claim against the Indemnitor, deliver to the Indemnitor a written notice describing, to the extent practicable, such matter in reasonable detail and such notice must be accompanied by a copy of any written notice of the third party claimant to the Indemnitee asserting the Third Party Claim. The failure to make prompt delivery of such written notice or of the copy of the written notice of the third party claimant by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor (so long as a notice pursuant to this Section 16.2(d)(ii) that includes any written notice of the third party claimant is given before the expiration of the applicable period set forth in Section 16.1) shall not relieve the Indemnitor from any liability under this Section 16.2 with respect to such matter, except to the extent the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced by failure to give such notice. The Indemnitee shall deliver to the Indemnitor copies of all other notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third Party Claim. The Indemnitor shall have the right, at its option, to assume the defense of any such matter with its own counsel. Prior to the time the Indemnitee is notified by the Indemnitor as to whether the Indemnitor will assume the defense of such third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall take all actions reasonably necessary to timely preserve the collective rights of the parties with respect to such Third Party Claim, including responding timely to legal process.

(e) Exclusive Remedies Following the Closing Date. Following the Closing Date, the indemnification provisions of this Section 16 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser Indemnitees and Seller Indemnitees, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, for all matters arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein, including, without limitation, for any inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth herein.

(f) Failure of Closing. If Seller is obligated to consummate the Closing pursuant to Section 4.1 and fails to so consummate the Closing on or before 11:59 P.M. on December 31,

2015, Purchaser shall be entitled to the return of the Deposit in full and to liquidated damages in the amount of $10,000,000 as its sole and exclusive remedy. If Purchaser is obligated to consummate the Closing pursuant to Section 4.1 and fails to so consummate the Closing on or before 11:59 P.M. on December 31, 2015, Seller shall be entitled to retain the Initial Deposit and so much of the Additional Deposits as have been posted by Purchaser as its sole and exclusive remedy for Purchaser’s failure to consummate the Closing. Both parties agree that the amounts set forth in this paragraph are reasonable liquidated damages, the exact damages being difficult to quantify, and that such amounts are the subject of arms’ length negotiations.

17.

Recordation. Neither this Agreement nor any notice of this Agreement shall be recorded.

18.

Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTE RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS MADE KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND AFTER CONSULTING WITH (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH) COUNSEL OF ITS OWN CHOOSING AS TO THE MEANING OF THIS WAIVER.

19.

Time of Essence; Calculation of Time Periods. Except as provided in Section 4.1, time is of the essence as to each and every provision of this Agreement. If any date upon which action is required under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any date which serves as the expiration of any time period set forth herein) shall be a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the date for the performance of such action shall be extended to the first Business Day after such date which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.

20.

Counterparts; Fax Signatures Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile, telecopy or portable document format (.pdf) shall be binding on the Party transmitting such signatures and such Party shall not use as a defense against the enforceability of this Agreement the fact that such signature so transmitted is not original. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be enforceable against the Party executing and delivering same, and all of which shall constitute a single and enforceable agreement. Any facsimile or portable document format (PDF) signature shall be replaced with an original signature as promptly as practicable.

21.

No Third Party Rights. Unless expressly stated in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement on any persons other than the Parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any third persons to any Party to this Agreement, nor shall any provision give any third persons any right of subrogation or action over or against any Party to this Agreement.

22.

Confidentiality. Purchaser shall, and shall cause all of its Affiliates, employees and advisors to, keep confidential and shall not disclose the terms of the transfers contemplated in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Purchase Price and all other financial terms, without the prior written consent of Seller. No press release or other public announcement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be made without the prior written consent of both Seller and Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall in its sole judgment be permitted to file a Current Report on Form 8-K, provided that none of the

financial terms of this Agreement shall be disclosed, unless otherwise required in the opinion of Purchaser’s counsel in its sole discretion. Any information to be provided therein shall be reviewed in advance by Seller, Purchaser shall use good faith in taking into account Seller’s comments (if any). Purchaser shall prior to filing share a copy of the proposed filing with Seller.

23.

Eastern time December 23, 2015, then clauses (i) through (iii) shall no longer apply; and further provided, that if Seller enters into an agreement as permitted after 12:00 P.M. on December 23, 2015, such agreement shall expressly permit Closing hereunder through December 31, 2015.

24.

Know Your Customer. Seller must complete certain “know your customer” procedures regarding Purchaser, including, without limitation, understanding who Purchaser is and Purchaser’s source of funds. To this end, Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller in these efforts consistent with Seller’s policies, including, without limitation, delivering to Seller upon request the full names of the individuals and business entities involved in the transaction on Purchaser’s behalf, all parties contributing or receiving any money, compensation or ownership interests, and a detailed Purchaser organization chart.
