SECTION
1
PURCHASE AND
SALE
1.01 Purchase by
Buyer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
in this Agreement, Buyer agrees to purchase the Partnership Interests from
Seller, and Seller agrees to sell the Partnership Interests to
Buyer.
1.02 Payment of Purchase
Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Partnership
Interests shall be Forty-Eight
Million Six Hundred Sixty-Six Thousand Seven Hundred Ninety-Six and 00/100
Dollars ($48,666,796.00) (the “Purchase
Price”). The Purchase Price shall be reduced by the principal
balance assumed by Buyer under that certain first mortgage loan made to the
Partnership by GMAC Commercial Mortgage Bank, a Utah industrial bank (the “First
Lender”) on March 22, 2006 in the original principal amount of $27,000,000 (the
“First Loan”) and under that certain second mortgage loan made to the
Partnership by Capmark Bank, a Utah industrial bank (the “Second Lender”) on
October 30, 2007 in the original principal amount of $3,700,000 (the “Second
Loan”) (the First Loan and the Second Loan are collectively referred to herein
as the “Existing Loan”). The interests of the First Lender in the
First Loan and the Second Lender in the Second Loan have been assigned to Xxxxxx
Xxx (“Lender”). The Purchase Price, after taking into account the prorations and
adjustments required herein (including, without limitation, those set forth in
Section 12) and after reduction by the assumed principal balance of the Existing
Loan, is referred to herein as the " Equity Portion of the Purchase
Price." The Purchase Price, subject to prorations and adjustments,
shall be paid as follows:
(a) Initial
Deposit. Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars
($500,000.00) (the “Initial
Deposit”);
(b) Additional
Deposit. Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars
($500,000.00) (the “Additional Deposit” and, together with the Initial Deposit
and any and all interest accrued thereon, are collectively referred to herein as
the “Deposit”); and
(c) Payment at
Closing. At the Closing (as defined in Section 1.06 hereof),
Buyer shall deliver to Seller cash in an amount equal to the Equity Portion of
the Purchase Price, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, less (i) the amount of the Deposit held by the Escrow Agent (as
defined in Section 1.04(a) hereof), and (ii) the Escrow Amount (as defined in
Section 1.05 hereof) to be held by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms
of Section 1.05 hereof.
(d) Payment of
Monies. All monies payable under this Agreement, unless
otherwise specified in this Agreement, shall be paid by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the Seller as directed by EHGP, Inc.
1.03 Assumption of Existing
Loan. The Existing Loan is secured by mortgages on the
Property (collectively, the “Existing Mortgage”). The current
principal balance of the First Loan is $27,000,000; the current principal
balance of the Second Loan is $3,671,830.63. Seller shall pay all
interest accruing on and other fees and expenses under the Existing Loan through
the date prior to Closing and Buyer shall be responsible for interest on the
Existing Loan from and after the Closing Date. At Closing, subject to
obtaining all necessary approvals from the Lender under the Existing Loan,
Buyer, as owner of all of the interests in the Partnership shall assume all
obligations and agreements of Seller as owner of all of the interests in the
Partnership related to the Existing Loan arising or accruing from and after the
Closing Date. All loan documentation related to the Existing Loan is
listed on Exhibit
E and is hereinafter referred to as the "Existing Loan
Documents". Copies of said Existing Loan Documents have been provided
to Buyer. Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price
equal to the outstanding principal balance and all accrued but unpaid interest
and other fees and expenses under the Existing Loan.
(a) Buyer
shall submit an application for the assumption of the Existing Loan on or prior
to August 11, 2008. Each of General Partner and Buyer shall pursue
the assumption of the Loan with due diligence and in good faith and shall make
all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain Lender's written consent to (i)
the transfer of all of the interests in the Partnership from Seller to Buyer,
(ii) the assignment and assumption of the Existing Loan in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, (iii) the substitution of a non-recourse carve-out
guarantor reasonably satisfactory to Buyer for Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxx as the carve-out
guarantor under the Existing Loan (the “Existing Guarantor”) for all matters
occurring after Closing, and (iv) the release of Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxx as the
carve-out guarantor under the Existing Loan for all matters occurring after
Closing hereunder (the “Lender's Consent”)
(items (i)-(iv) above being referred to herein as the "assumption of the
Existing Loan"). Buyer and General Partner shall provide all
cooperation the other party reasonably requests in order to obtain Lender's
Consent. Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer in connection with Buyer's
preparation of all applications and submissions contemplated hereunder and,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall furnish such information
and execute and deliver such documents on behalf of the Seller as may be
reasonably required in connection therewith. Buyer and Seller shall
establish a mutual understanding for all communications between Partnership, its
property manager, or other representative of the Seller and Lender or any tenant
or tenants of the Property regarding the terms and conditions of any proposed or
submitted application contemplated in connection herewith. It is
understood and agreed that in no event shall Buyer obtaining supplemental
financing be a condition precedent to closing the transactions contemplated
herein.
(b) Subject
to receipt of the Lender's Consent, at Closing, the Partnership shall continue
to be bound by the terms of the Existing Loan after Closing hereunder and Buyer,
as owner of all of the interests in the Partnership, shall assume the Existing
Loan, pursuant to an assignment and assumption agreement (the “Loan Assignment
and Assumption Agreement”) that: (i) imposes no obligation or liability on Buyer
or the Substitute Carve-out Guarantor (as defined in Section 9.01(h) under the
Existing Loan Documents with respect to any period prior to Closing, with the
same effect as if the Existing Loan were first being disbursed to Buyer at
Closing; (ii) does not modify any of the terms or provisions of the Existing
Loan Documents in any respect; as reasonably
determined by Buyer other than those changes reasonably requested by Buyer prior
to the expiration of the Inspection Period, including, but not limited to, the
inclusion of a provision for payment of a market management fee to Berkshire
Property Advisors, L.L.C.; and (iii) contains an estoppel from Lender
that no defaults exist on the part of Seller or the carve-out guarantor under
the Existing Loan Documents; and (iv) releases the Existing Guarantor under the
Existing Loan for all matters occurring after Closing (the Loan Assignment and
Assumption Agreement and any other documents the Lender requires Seller and/or
Buyer to execute and deliver as a condition to the assignment and assumption of
the Existing Loan to Buyer are, collectively, the “Lender Assumption
Documents”).

1.04 Escrow Arrangements Relating

(a) Deposit. Within
one (1) business day after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Initial Deposit shall be delivered by Buyer to Lawyers Title Insurance Company,
National Accounts, Boston Office, 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxxxxxxx, 00000, Attention: Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, Esq. ("Escrow Agent" and

the Inspection Period expires without Buyer having exercised its right to
terminate this Agreement and this Agreement being otherwise then in effect, the
Additional Deposit shall be delivered by Buyer to Escrow Agent within two (2)
business days after such expiration of the Inspection Period (the Initial
Deposit and the Additional Deposit, together with all interest accrued thereon,
being collectively referred to herein as the "Deposit"). Upon
receipt from Buyer of the Deposit, Escrow Agent shall invest the Deposit in an
interest-bearing account or money market fund as directed by
Buyer. All interest on the Deposit shall accrue to Buyer, except as
otherwise provided in Section 13.03 hereof. At the Closing,
Escrow Agent shall release the Deposit to Seller, which Deposit shall be
credited against the balance of the Purchase Price owed by Buyer to
Seller.
(b) Escrow
Provisions. Escrow Agent agrees to hold, keep and deliver the
Deposit and all other sums delivered to Escrow Agent in accordance with the
terms and provisions of this Agreement. Escrow Agent shall not be
entitled to any fees or compensation for its services
hereunder. Escrow Agent shall be liable only to hold said sums and
deliver the same to the parties named herein in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement, it being expressly understood that by acceptance of this
Agreement, Escrow Agent is acting in the capacity of a depository only and shall
not be liable or responsible to anyone for any damages, losses or expenses
unless same shall have been caused by the gross negligence or willful
malfeasance of Escrow Agent. In the event of any disagreement between
Buyer and Seller resulting in any adverse claims and demands being made in
connection with or for the monies involved herein or affected hereby, Escrow
Agent shall not comply with any such claims or demands so long as such
disagreement may continue, and, Escrow Agent shall make no delivery or other
disposition of any of the monies then held by it under the terms of this
Agreement, and in so doing Escrow Agent shall not become liable to anyone for
such actions; and Escrow Agent shall be entitled to continue to refrain from
acting until (a) the rights of the adverse claimants shall have been finally
adjudicated in a court of competent jurisdiction of the monies involved herein
or affected hereby, or (b) all differences shall have been adjusted by agreement
between Seller and Buyer, and Escrow Agent shall have been notified in writing
of such agreement signed by the parties hereto. Escrow Agent shall
not disburse any of the monies held by it under this Agreement unless in
accordance with either a joint written instruction of Buyer and Seller or an
Escrow Demand (as hereinafter defined) from either Buyer or Seller in accordance
with the provisions hereinafter set forth. Upon receipt by Escrow
Agent from either Buyer or Seller (the "Notifying Party") of any notice
or request (the "Escrow Demand") to perform
any act or disburse any portion of the monies held by Escrow Agent under the
terms of this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall give written notice to the other
party (the "Notified Party"). If
within five (5) business days after the giving of such notice, Escrow Agent does
not receive any written objection to the Escrow Demand from the Notified Party,
Escrow Agent shall comply with the Escrow Demand. If Escrow Agent
does receive written objection from the Notified Party in a timely manner as
aforesaid, Escrow Agent shall take no further action until the dispute between
the parties has been resolved pursuant to either clause (a) or (b)
above. Further, Escrow Agent shall have the right at all times to pay
all sums held by it (i) to the appropriate party with the written consent of
Buyer and Seller, or (ii) into any court of competent jurisdiction after a
dispute between or among the parties hereto has arisen, whereupon Escrow Agent's
obligations hereunder shall terminate.
(c) Indemnification. General
Partner, Partnership and Buyer jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold
harmless Escrow Agent from and against any and all costs, damages and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, that said Escrow Agent may incur in its
compliance in good faith with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however,
this indemnity shall not extend to any act of gross negligence or willful
malfeasance on the part of Escrow Agent.
1.05 Escrow
Amount. At the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall enter into an
escrow agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the "Escrow Agreement"), pursuant
to which Seller shall deposit One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00)
(the "Escrow
Amount") with
the Escrow Agent, which shall be held by the Escrow Agent in a segregated
account as security for Seller's indemnification obligations under Sections
8.10, 16 and 17 hereof. All interest accruing on the Escrow Amount
shall be for the benefit of Seller. In the event Buyer makes a
written claim or demand for indemnification under Section 8.10, 16 and/or
Section 17 hereof (an “Indemnification Claim”), and Seller
does not dispute such Indemnification Claim, or is determined to be liable for
and in respect of such Indemnification Claim by a court of competent
jurisdiction, then the Escrow Agent promptly thereafter shall pay such
Indemnification Claim in full to Buyer, all as more particularly provided in the
Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agreement shall expire upon the
termination of the Survival Period (as defined in Section 16.01 hereof), and
immediately thereafter the Escrow Agent shall pay the portion, if any, of the
then remaining Escrow Amount not in dispute to Seller; provided, however, that
if prior to the expiration of the Survival Period, Buyer shall have made an
Indemnification Claim or commenced litigation or any other proceeding on account
of any such claim, the term of the Escrow Agreement shall be extended, and the
Escrow Agent shall continue to hold in escrow the portion of the then Escrow
Amount in dispute, in each case until the final resolution of such
Indemnification Claim or litigation or proceeding relating thereto, all as more
particularly provided in the Escrow Agreement.
1.06 Closing. Except
as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the closing of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall be
through an escrow administered by the Escrow Agent by means of concurrent
delivery of the documents of title, transfer of interest, delivery of Title
Policy (as hereinafter defined) and the Purchase Price, customarily referred to
as a “New York Style” closing, at 10:00 A.M. eastern time on the date that
is ten (10) days after the date of Buyer’s receipt of Lender’s Consent, as such
date may be extended only to the extent necessary to complete the documentation
related to the assumption of the Existing Loan and to satisfy Lender’s
requirements in connection with the Existing Loan, or such other date or place
as Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree in writing (the date that the Closing
is actually consummated hereunder, the "Closing Date")
provided, however, that if Lender's consent has not been obtained by November 5,
2008, Buyer or Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by notice
to the other and in such event the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and this
Agreement shall be of no further force or effect. It is agreed that
time is of the essence.
SECTION
2
TITLE
MATTERS
2.01 Title. Buyer's
obligation to purchase the Partnership Interests shall be conditioned upon the
Partnership then holding good and clear record and marketable fee simple title
to the Real Property, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (as hereinafter
defined). In connection herewith, on or prior to the date of this
Agreement General Partner has provided to Buyer a copy of the existing lender’s
title insurance policy for the Real Property. As promptly as possible
after the date of this Agreement, Buyer shall obtain at its sole expense from
the Title Company, a Commitment For Title Insurance for an ALTA Owner's Form B
Title Insurance Policy with such endorsements as Buyer shall reasonably require
and all legible copies of all instruments and plans mentioned therein as
exceptions to title (all of such items are hereinafter collectively referred to
as the “Commitment”). The
Commitment shall be in the amount of the Purchase Price. Should the
Commitment contain any title exceptions which are not acceptable to Buyer, in
its sole discretion, Buyer shall, prior to the expiration of the Inspection
Period, notify Seller of such exceptions. If Buyer fails to so notify
Seller of any such exceptions as described above, the exceptions set forth in
Schedule B of the Commitment shall be deemed accepted by Buyer (all such
exceptions being referred to herein as the “Permitted Exceptions”). If
any exceptions are unacceptable to Buyer and Buyer timely notifies General
Partner in writing of such fact as provided above, General Partner, in its sole
discretion, shall have ten (10) business days from the date General Partner
receives notice of such unacceptable exceptions to cause the Partnership to
remove or cure such exceptions, to Buyer's reasonable satisfaction, except with
respect to the Monetary Liens (as hereinafter defined), which General Partner
shall cause the Partnership to remove or cure before the Closing with funds of
the Partnership. General Partner shall be deemed to have given notice to Buyer
that General Partner refuses to cure any unacceptable exceptions, which General
Partner may so do in its sole discretion, unless General Partner, within such
ten (10) business day period, shall notify Buyer in writing that General Partner
will attempt to cure such unacceptable exceptions. If General Partner
fails or refuses to cure, or to cause the Partnership to cure, said unacceptable
exceptions within the time period above provided, Buyer may (a) terminate this
Agreement on or before ten (10) business days after the later of the date of
General Partner's written notice furnished as described above or the expiration
of the aforesaid ten (10) business day notice period afforded General Partner,
and the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, or (b) if Buyer fails to so
terminate, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived such exceptions and accept title
subject thereto, in which event there shall be no reduction in the Purchase
Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
Buyer is deemed to have rejected, without any need for further notice, all
mortgages (except the Existing Mortgage), deeds of trust, liens of mechanics'
liens, attachments, judgments, liens to secure the payment of income taxes of
Seller or Seller's constituents, delinquent property tax and assessment liens
against the Real Property and any other liens against the Real Property that can
be removed by the payment of a sum other than real estate taxes collected in
arrears but not yet then due and payable (collectively, "Monetary Liens"), and Seller
agrees, at the sole cost and expense of the Partnership, to cause all such
Monetary Liens to be released or removed prior to the Closing Date.
2.02 Survey. General
Partner has furnished Buyer with a copy of the most recent as-built survey of
the Real Property in Seller's possession (the "Prior Survey"), and
on or before the expiration of the Inspection Period, Buyer may obtain a current
as-built survey (the "New Survey") of the
Real Property by a registered land surveyor. Should the Prior Survey
or the New Survey contain any encumbrances, encroachments or other survey
defects (collectively the "Survey Matters")
which are not acceptable to Buyer in its sole discretion, Buyer shall, prior to
the expiration of the Inspection Period, notify General Partner of such
exceptions. If Buyer fails to so notify General Partner of any
unacceptable Survey Matters as described above, all Survey Matters shall be
deemed accepted by Buyer. If any Survey Matters are unacceptable to
Buyer and Buyer timely notifies General Partner in writing of such fact as
provided above, General Partner, in its sole discretion, shall have ten (10)
days from the date General Partner receives notice of such unacceptable Survey
Matters to cure such Survey Matters to Buyer's reasonable
satisfaction. General Partner shall be deemed to have given notice to
Buyer that General Partner refuses to cure any unacceptable Survey Matters,
which General Partner may so do in its sole discretion, unless General Partner,
within such ten (10) day period, shall notify Buyer in writing that General
Partner will attempt to cure such unacceptable Survey Matters. If
General Partner fails or refuses to cure said unacceptable Survey Matters within
the time period above provided, Buyer may (a) terminate this Agreement on
or before ten (10) business days after the later of the date of General
Partner's written notice furnished to Buyer as described above or the expiration
of the aforesaid ten (10) day notice period afforded Seller, and the Deposit
shall be returned to Buyer, or (b) if Buyer fails to so terminate, Buyer
shall be deemed to waive such Survey Matters and accept title subject thereto,
in which event there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price.

Property.

or of any termination or threatened termination of any policy of insurance or
bond; or
(e) except as
set forth on Schedule 4.08(e), from any third party alleging any violation or
default by General Partner or the Partnership under any Service Contract or
other agreement affecting the Property or the Partnership, including, without
limitation, any recorded documents.
4.09 No Employment Contracts,
Unions, Pension Plans. Neither General Partner nor the
Partnership has entered into any employment contracts or labor union contracts,
and have not established any retirement, pension or profit sharing plans (other
than a 401(k) plan for employees), relating to the operation or maintenance of
the Partnership or the Real Property which shall survive the Closing or for
which Buyer shall have any liability or obligation.
4.10 Employees. The
Partnership currently employs the personnel identified on Schedule 4.10
hereof. Schedule 4.10 sets forth the job title and salary for every
employee of the Partnership. Seller
shall terminate all such employees as of the Closing Date and shall indemnify
and hold Buyer harmless from and against any and all claims, losses or expenses
related to such employees arising prior to
Closing.
4.11 Financial
Status. Neither Seller nor the Partnership has (a) made a
general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (b) had an attachment,
execution or other judicial seizure of any property interest which remains in
effect; or (c) become generally unable to meet its financial obligations as they
mature; and neither Seller (with respect to the Partnership only) nor the
Partnership has admitted in writing its inability to pay its debts as they
mature.
4.12 No
Bankruptcy. There is not pending any case, proceeding or other
action seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution
or recomposition of Seller or the Partnership, or the debts of Seller or the
Partnership, under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or

custodian or other similar official for Seller, the Partnership or the Real
Property.
4.13 Financial
Statements. Attached as Schedule 4.13 hereto
are the audited balance sheet of the Partnership as of December 31, 2007 (the
“2007 Balance
Sheet”), and the related statements of income, partners' equity and cash
flows of the Partnership for the year then ended (together with the 2007 Balance
Sheet, the “Financial
Statements”). The Financial Statements are true and correct in
all material respects, and have been prepared on the basis of accounting used to
prepare the Partnership’s income tax returns, which is a comprehensive basis of
accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. The 2007 Financial Statements fairly and
accurately present the financial condition of the Partnership as of the date
thereof, and the statements of income, partners' equity and cash flows contained
therein fairly and accurately present the results of operations of the
Partnership for the periods covered thereby.
4.14 No
Liabilities. Except (a) for liabilities incurred in the
ordinary course of business which shall be paid in full by Partnership prior to
the Closing Date for goods and services obtained by Partnership prior to
Closing, (b) as disclosed in Schedule 4.14 attached hereto,
and (c) as otherwise disclosed in this Agreement, the Partnership has no
liability or obligation of any nature which in any way affects or is related to
the Property whether now due or to become due, absolute, contingent or
otherwise, including liabilities for taxes due on or prior to the date of this
Agreement (or any interest or penalties thereto).
4.15 Status of Interests. The
partnership interests of the Partnership are as set forth in Schedule 4.15
attached hereto. 96.474774% of such partnership interests are
owned (of record and beneficially) by Seller and 3.525226% of such partnership
interests are owned (of record and beneficially) by the Individual Limited
Partners (the “ILP
Interests”). The Partnership Interests and the ILP Interests
constitute 100% of the partnership interests in the Partnership. The
Partnership Interests are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid,
nonassessable, and free and clear of liens and encumbrances of any
nature. Neither Seller nor the Partnership has or is bound by any (a)
outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, commitments or agreements
of any character calling for it to issue, deliver or sell, or cause to be
issued, delivered or sold, any partnership interest or any other equity security
of the Partnership, or (b) securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or
representing the right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise receive, any
partnership interest or any other equity security of the Partnership, or
obligating it to grant, extend or enter into any such subscriptions, options,
warrants, calls, commitments or agreements. General Partner has at
all times treated the Partnership as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes, and will not make any election to treat the Partnership as other than
a partnership.
4.16 Partnership
Agreement. The Partnership Agreement attached hereto as Schedule 4.16 is a
true, correct and complete copy of the Partnership Agreement. As of
the date hereof, there have been no amendments, modifications or revisions to
the Partnership Agreement and it remains in full force and effect.

4.17 Tax
Returns.
(a) All
federal, state, municipal and other tax returns ("Tax Returns") required by law
to be filed by the Partnership and/or the Seller for all periods up to and
including the Closing Date have been or will be duly executed and filed, and all
Taxes, interest and penalties shown as owed and due on such returns and reports
have or will be paid in full prior to the Closing. To Seller's
knowledge, all such Tax Returns were correct and complete in all
respects.
(b) The
Partnership is not currently the beneficiary of any extension of time within
which to file any Tax Return and has not waived any statute of limitations in
respect of Taxes or agreed to any extensions of time with respect to a tax
assessment or deficiency. To General Partner's knowledge, no claim has ever been
made by an authority in any jurisdiction where the Partnership does not file Tax
Returns that it is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction. There are
no liens on any of the assets of the Partnership that arose in connection with
any failure (or alleged failure) to pay any Tax. All Taxes which
shall become due and payable by the Partnership after the date of this Agreement
but before the Closing Date shall be paid by the Partnership on or before the
Closing Date. All Tax Returns and tax information returns to be filed after the
date hereof but before the Closing Date by the Partnership shall be true,
complete and accurate. All Taxes which the Partnership is required by law to
withhold or collect have been duly withheld or collected and, to the extent
required, have been paid over to the proper governmental agencies.
(c) There is
no current audit pending concerning any Tax liability of the Partnership, nor
have the Seller or the Partnership received any written notice of an audit
concerning any Tax liability of the Partnership. There is no dispute
or claim concerning any Tax liability of the Partnership either (A) claimed or
raised by any governmental authority in writing or (B) as to which the General
Partner has knowledge based on personal contact with any agent of such
governmental authority.
(d) No taxes
are currently owed by the Partnership for any partial year, except as otherwise
disclosed in the Financial Statements. Not more than eighty-nine
percent of the partnership interests in the Partnership, in the aggregate, has
been transferred within the three (3) year period prior to the date
hereof.
(e) As used
herein, "Tax"
means any federal, state, county, local or foreign tax, charge, fee, levy,
impost, duty, or other assessment, including income, gross receipts, excise,
employment, sales, use, transfer, recording, license, payroll, franchise,
severance, commercial rent, customs duty, capital stock, paid-up capital,
profits, withholding, Social Security, single business and unemployment,
disability, registration, ad valorem, value added, alternative or add-on
minimum, estimated, or other tax or governmental fee or any kind whatsoever,
imposed or required to be withheld by any regulatory or governmental authority,
including any interest, penalties and additions imposed thereon or with respect
thereto.
4.18 Existing Loan
Documents. The loan documents set forth on Schedule 4.18
attached hereto constitute all loan documentation executed in connection with
the Existing Loan. The copies of the Existing Loan Documents
delivered by General Partner to Buyer (and to be delivered under Section 1.03
and 3.01(p)) are true, correct and complete copies of all of the loan documents
in connection with the Existing Loan. As of the date hereof, there
have been no amendments, modifications or revisions to the Existing Loan
Documents and they remain in full force and effect. There are no
defaults on the part of Seller under the Existing Loan Documents.
4.19 Non-Contravention. The
execution and delivery of this Agreement and any document, agreement or
instrument to be executed and delivered by General Partner in connection
herewith, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby, will not (a) violate or conflict with any provision of the governing or
constituent documents of General Partner or the Partnership, or (b) constitute a
violation of, or be in conflict with, or constitute or create a default under,
or result in the creation or imposition of any encumbrance upon any property of
either General Partner or the Partnership pursuant to (i) any agreement or
instrument to which such General Partner or the Partnership is a party or by
which any of its respective properties is bound, or (ii) to General Partner's
actual knowledge, any statute, judgment, decree, order, regulation or rule of
any court or governmental or regulatory authority.
4.20 Disclosure. No
representation or warranty by General Partner in this Agreement or in any
exhibit, schedule, written statement, certificate or other document delivered or
to be delivered to Buyer pursuant hereto or in connection with the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby contains or will contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained
therein not misleading or necessary in order to provide Buyer with proper and
complete information as to the business, condition, operations and prospects of
the Partnership. There is no fact which General Partner has not
disclosed to Buyer in writing which materially adversely affects, or so far as
General Partner can now foresee, will materially adversely affect, the business
or condition (financial or other) of the Partnership or the ability of General
Partner to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby.
4.21 LP Purchase Agreement
Representations and Warranties. All of the representations and
warranties of the Individual Limited Partners under the LP Purchase Agreement
are true, complete and correct in all material respects.
At
Closing, each of the persons comprising Seller shall represent and warrant to
Buyer by delivering to Buyer a certificate (the “Seller's Representation Certificate”)
certifying that as to itself, all representations and warranties it makes in
this Agreement remain true and correct as of the Closing Date and all of the
representations and warranties contained herein shall be deemed remade by it
effective as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that to the extent that
changes in facts or circumstances after the date of this Agreement have
occurred, it shall promptly deliver written notice to Buyer of such facts or
circumstances after becoming aware of same (but in no event later than the
Closing Date) and, the Seller's Representation Certificate may be revised at
Closing to make exception or qualification with respect to such matters as may
be necessary for such representations to remain true, but Buyer's agreement to
allow such amendment of Seller's Representation Certificate shall not affect or
indicate any waiver of any condition to Closing set forth in this Agreement, and
Buyer may terminate this Agreement and receive the Deposit, if it fails, for any
reason, to deliver Seller's Representation Certificate at Closing without any
material change, except as to changes which are permitted or contemplated
pursuant to Section 8 hereof.
If Buyer
notifies Seller prior to Closing that any representation or warranty made in
Section 5 is not true and correct in any material respect and Seller fails
to cure or remedy the same prior to Closing, Buyer may either (a) terminate this
Agreement and the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, and neither party shall
have further rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, except for
Buyer's obligation to repair any damage to the Property and to indemnify Seller
as set forth in Section 6.01; or (b) waive any such representation or warranty
and close the transaction without any reduction in the Purchase
Price. General Partner shall be required to spend up to Two Hundred
Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000.00) in the pursuit of a cure or remedy of a
breach of any representation or warranty made in Section 5.
If
subsequent to Closing Buyer notifies Seller within twelve (12) months after
Closing that Buyer discovered post-closing that any representation or warranty
made in Section 4 was not true and correct and specifying the breach with
particularity, Buyer shall have available all remedies at law or in equity as a
consequence thereof (including, without limitation, the right to recover under
the Escrow Agreement). If Buyer does not notify Seller of the breach
of any of its representations and warranties set forth in this Section 5 and
institute a lawsuit therefor in a court of competent jurisdiction within twelve
(12) months after the Closing, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived all of its
rights to claim and xxx for any breach by Seller of any of its representations
and warranties made in this Section 4, except with respect to the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.15 which shall survive the
Closing Date and the expiration of the Survival Period (as defined
below).

INSPECTION CONDITION; "AS
IS" PURCHASE
6.01 From the
date of this Agreement through the Closing, Buyer, its agents and
representatives, shall be entitled to enter upon the Real Property (as
coordinated through the Management Company), including all leased areas and
apartment units, upon reasonable prior notice to Seller, to perform inspections
and tests of the Property, including surveys, environmental studies,
examinations and tests of all structural and mechanical systems within the
Improvements, and to examine (a) all leases, contracts, books, records and
accounting reports of Partnership or Partnership's property manager relating to
the Real Property, (b) title and survey, (c) compliance with all zoning,
building and other laws and regulations, (d) an engineering and physical
inspection, (e) an environmental study, and (f) an inspection of such other
matters as Buyer determines. Partnership shall make an on-site
representative available to assist in all on-site
inspections. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be
permitted to interfere materially and unreasonably with the Partnership's
operations at the Real Property or interfere with any tenant's occupancy at the
Real Property, and the scheduling of any inspections shall take into account the
timing and availability of access to tenants' premises, pursuant to tenants'
rights under the Leases or otherwise. Buyer shall repair any damage
to the Property caused by its employees, agents and contractors conducting any
such tests or investigations, and indemnify Partnership from and against any and
all liabilities, claims, costs and expenses resulting therefrom, provided,
however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not be applicable to conditions
merely discovered by Buyer, but not originally caused by Buyer, nor shall such
indemnity extend to liabilities, costs, expenses, damages or injuries caused by
or arising out of the acts or omissions of Partnership or its
agents. The foregoing indemnification shall survive the Closing or
the termination of this Agreement. Prior to Closing hereunder,
Buyer's and its agents' activities at the Property shall be covered by a general
liability insurance policy maintained by Buyer in a commercially reasonable
amount. Buyer shall provide Seller with a certificate evidencing such
insurance and naming the Partnership as an additional insured.
6.02 The term
"Inspection
Period," as used herein, shall mean the period ending at 5:00 p.m. Boston
time on August 7, 2008. Buyer shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement, in its sole discretion, for any reason or no reason, by giving
written notice of such election to Seller on any day prior to and including the
final day of the Inspection Period, in which event the Initial Deposit shall be
returned forthwith to Buyer and, except as expressly set forth herein, neither
party shall have any further liability or obligation to the other
hereunder. In the absence of such written notice, the contingency
provided for in this Section 6.02 shall no longer be applicable, Buyer shall be
deemed to have waived its right to terminate under this Section 6.02, and this
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
6.03 EXCEPT AS
EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, IT IS UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT SELLER
IS NOT MAKING AND HAS NOT AT ANY TIME MADE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF
ANY KIND OR CHARACTER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTY OR THE
PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR
WARRANTIES AS TO MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT UPON THE CONSUMMATION OF
THE CLOSING, SELLER SHALL SELL AND CONVEY TO BUYER, AND BUYER SHALL ACCEPT, THE
PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS AND INDIRECTLY THE PROPERTY "AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL
FAULTS," EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT EXPRESSLY PROVIDED OTHERWISE IN THIS AGREEMENT.
BUYER HAS NOT RELIED AND WILL NOT RELY ON, AND SELLER IS NOT LIABLE FOR OR BOUND
BY, ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, GUARANTIES, STATEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS
OR INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE PROPERTY OR THE PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS
(INCLUDING SPECIFICALLY, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY PROSPECTUS OR PROXY STATEMENT
DISTRIBUTED WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTY OR PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS) MADE OR
FURNISHED BY SELLER TO WHOMEVER MADE OR GIVEN, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ORALLY OR
IN WRITING, UNLESS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT. BUYER

SECTION

INSURANCE
7.01 Maintenance of
Insurance. Until the Closing, General Partner shall cause the
Partnership to cause the insurance on the Property to be maintained in amounts
and coverages substantially similar to the policies in effect as of the date of
this Agreement, which insurance in respect of fire and casualty shall be covered
by a standard All-Risk Policy in the amount currently
insured. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.02 hereof, the risk
of loss in and to the Property shall remain vested in the Partnership until the
Closing. Buyer will cause the Partnership to obtain new insurance on
the Property at the Closing.
7.02 Casualty or
Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, the Improvements or
any material portion thereof (having a repair or replacement cost equal to or in
excess of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000) are damaged or
destroyed by fire or casualty, or any part of the Property is taken by eminent
domain by any governmental entity, then Buyer shall have the option, exercisable
by written notice given to Seller at or prior to the Closing, to terminate this
Agreement, whereupon all obligations of all parties hereto shall cease, the
Deposit shall be returned to Buyer, and this Agreement shall be void and without
recourse to the parties hereto except for provisions which are expressly stated
to survive such termination. If Buyer does not elect to terminate
this Agreement as aforesaid or if such damage or destruction or taking has a
repair or replacement cost or is in an amount of less than Five Hundred Thousand
and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000), Buyer shall proceed with the consummation of the
Closing (to the extent then otherwise obligated to do so) without reduction or
offset of the Purchase Price except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement,
and in such case, unless the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to have
previously restored the Real Property to its condition prior to the occurrence
of any such damage or destruction, Partnership shall retain for the benefit of
Buyer all amounts received or due from, and all claims against, any insurance
company (including business interruption and rental loss insurance proceeds to
the extent related to any period after the Closing Date) or governmental entity
as a result of such destruction or taking and Buyer shall receive a credit
against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the deductible under Seller's
insurance policy, provided, however, that to the extent any such insurance
proceeds are insufficient to restore the Property to its condition prior to the
occurrence of such damage or destruction, Buyer shall, at Seller’s election
(such election to be made in writing by Seller to Buyer within three (3)
business days after Buyer and Seller receive written notice of the amount of
such insufficiency), either: (a) receive a credit against the Purchase Price at
Closing in an amount equal to such insufficiency or (b) have the right, in its
sole and absolute discretion, to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund
of the Deposit by delivering written notice to Seller thereof within three (3)
business days after Seller delivers written notice to Buyer of Seller’s election
not to so reduce the Purchase Price at Closing. The provisions of
this Section 7 shall survive the Closing.
SECTION

SELLER'S OBLIGATIONS PRIOR
TO CLOSING
Seller
covenants that between the date of this Agreement and the Closing:
8.01 Leasing. Seller
shall not, and shall not permit the Partnership to, without Buyer's prior
written consent (a) enter into any new lease for an apartment unit with a

a period of no more than one (1) year and the rent shall be not less than the

Lease for an apartment unit with an existing tenant unless the lease is on the
Partnership's standard form, is for a period of not more than one (1) year and
not less than seven (7) months, and that the rent for the amended, renewal or
extension term shall not be less than the amount of rent set forth on the Rent

prior to the Closing Date, Partnership shall have performed all work necessary
(including, without limitation, supplying operable kitchen appliances,
installing new carpeting or cleaning existing carpeting, and repainting) to make
all apartment units within the Property that have been vacated for more than
five (5) days prior to the Closing Date ready for occupancy by incoming tenants,
consistent with Seller's past practices (the "Ready Work"). In
the event that all Ready Work has not been completed prior to the Closing Date,
Buyer shall receive a credit on account of the incomplete Ready Work in an
amount equal to $1,000 plus the cost of required replacement appliances per
unit.
8.02 Continuation/Termination of
Service Contracts. General Partner shall not modify or amend,
nor permit the Partnership to modify or amend, any Service Contract or enter

more than thirty (30) days' notice. During the Inspection Period,
Buyer shall notify General Partner which Service Contracts Buyer wishes to
assume at Closing and which Service Contracts Buyer wants terminated at Closing
(the "Rejected

Closing General Partner shall give notice of termination, at its sole cost and
expense, as to such Rejected Contracts so designated by Buyer, and Partnership
will retain all other Service Contracts from the date of the
Closing. To the extent any terminated Rejected Contracts continue to
provide goods or services for any period of time after Closing, General Partner
shall be responsible for payment of such items.
8.03 Replacement of Personal
Property. No Personal Property included as part of the
Property shall be removed from the Property unless the same is replaced with
similar items of at least equal quality prior to the Closing. Buyer

8.04 Access. General
Partner shall permit, and shall cause the Partnership to permit, Buyer and its

diminish the rights and obligations of Buyer and Seller under Section 7 hereof
with respect to a casualty.
8.06 Confidentiality. In
addition to the covenants contained elsewhere in this Agreement, Buyer hereby
covenants that it shall hold all information received from Seller in the
strictest confidence so long as this Agreement remains in effect, and for a
period of one (1) year thereafter if this Agreement is terminated for any reason
prior to Closing. During the period this Agreement remains in effect,
Buyer may, however, disclose such information to any employees, agents,
attorneys, advisors and contractors of Buyer involved in the inspection or
investigation of the Property conducted by Buyer in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement, or to any potential lenders or investors with whom
Buyer may be dealing in connection with the purchase of the Property, provided
that Buyer shall be responsible to ensure that such parties abide by the
foregoing confidentiality restrictions. The foregoing restrictions do
not apply to information in the public domain as a result of lawful disclosure,
or if disclosure is required under applicable laws, including, without
limitation, governmental regulatory, disclosure, tax and reporting
requirements.
8.07 Updated Rent
Roll. General Partner shall deliver to Buyer an updated Rent
Roll dated three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date.

delivering written notice of such election to Seller, General Partner shall
cause the Partnership to convert into a Delaware limited liability company in
the name of the Company, whose members shall be all of the partners of the
Partnership (in the same proportion), and to execute all documentation required
in connection with such conversion. Upon such conversion, without any
further action by either Buyer or Seller, all references herein to the
“Partnership” set forth in this Agreement shall automatically be deemed
references to the “Company” and all references herein to the “Partnership
Interests” shall automatically be deemed references to the “Membership
Interests” in the Company. Prior to submitting any required
documentation, application or certificate in connection with such conversion,
the General Partner shall deliver a copy of such materials to Buyer for Buyer’s
review and approval prior to submission of the same for filing. Buyer
shall reimburse Seller for all of Seller’s reasonable and actual out-of-pockets
costs in connection with such conversion up to an aggregate of
$10,000.00. Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless
from any liability, claim, demand, loss, expense or damage that is suffered or
incurred by Seller or the Partnership arising out of such conversion, including,
but not limited to, the imposition of any transfer tax by the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania or the City of Philadelphia.
8.10 Rooftop Easement
Agreement. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the
Partnership entered into a Rooftop Easement Agreement on July 31, 2006 (the
“Easement”) encumbering the Property, pursuant to which the Partnership assigned
to Unison Site Management, L.L.C. (“USM”) its rights under a License Agreement
between the Partnership and American Tower Corporation dated May 4, 2000 (the
“ATC License”). USM assigned its rights under the Easement to Cell
Tower Lease Acquisition, LLC (“CTLA” and, together with USM, the “Unison
Parties”) on July 31, 2006. The Partnership and USM were not aware
that the ATC License expired prior to July 31, 2006. Pursuant to an
Agreement Regarding Tower Site dated July 31, 2006 between the Partnership and
USM (the “Sharing Agreement”), the Partnership is to be paid sixty percent (60%)
of net revenues generated from rooftop antenna leases and licenses entered into
after July 31, 2006 pursuant to the Easement. A dispute has arisen
between the Partnership and the Unison Parties as to compensation due to the
Unison Parties from the Partnership on account of the expired ATC License (the
“Dispute”). Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause the
Partnership to enter into a Settlement Agreement with the Unison Parties
pursuant to which the Partnership and the Unison Parties shall agree to a
settlement amount regarding the Dispute and which Settlement Agreement shall
contain mutual releases by the Partnership and the Unison
Parties. Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Buyer harmless from
any liability, claim, demand, loss, expense or damage that is suffered or
incurred by Buyer or the Partnership arising out of or in connection with the
Dispute including, without limitation, Unison’s failure to make any and all
amounts payable to the Partnership after the Closing Date pursuant to the
Sharing Agreement as a result of the Dispute.

APPORTIONMENTS AND
ADJUSTMENTS TO PURCHASE PRICE
12.01 Seller
and Buyer shall cooperate to produce, prior to the Closing Date, a schedule of
prorations to be made on and after the Closing Date as complete and accurate as
reasonably possible. All prorations which can be liquidated
accurately or reasonably estimated shall be made at and as of
Closing. All other prorations, and adjustments to initial estimated
prorations, shall be made by Buyer and Seller with due diligence and cooperation
within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, or such later time as may be
required to obtain necessary information for proration, by immediate cash
payment to the party due a net credit from such prorations from the other
party. Notwithstanding any terms herein to the contrary, for purposes
of calculating prorations, Buyer shall be deemed to be in title to the Property,
and therefore entitled to the income and responsible for the expenses, for the
entire day upon which the Closing occurs.
12.02 The
following apportionments shall be made between the parties at the Closing as of
the close of the business day prior to the Closing:
(a) Buyer
shall receive from Seller a credit for any rent and other income under Leases
collected by Seller before Closing that applies to any period after
Closing. Uncollected rent and other uncollected income shall not be
prorated at Closing. After Closing, Buyer shall apply all rent and
income collected by Buyer from a tenant, first to the month in which Closing
occurred, then to such tenant's current monthly rental and then to arrearages in
the reverse order in which they were due, remitting promptly to Seller, any
balance properly allocable to Seller's period of ownership. Buyer
shall xxxx and use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such rent
arrearages in the ordinary course of business, but shall not be obligated to
engage a collection agency or take legal action to collect any rent
arrearages. Any rent or other income received by Seller after Closing
which are owed to Buyer shall be remitted to Buyer promptly after receipt for
allocation and disbursement as provided herein;
(b) security
deposits (together with any and all interest required to be accrued thereon
pursuant to applicable law or the applicable lease); it is the intent of the
parties that all refundable security deposits shown on the Rent Roll shall be
retained by Partnership at Closing; and the Partnership shall continue to be
directly accountable to the residents of the Property with respect to all such
security deposits; provided however, the General Partner shall indemnify and
hold Buyer harmless from all liabilities arising during the period prior to the
Closing and relating to the security deposits transferred to Buyer;
(c) there
shall be no adjustment for wages, vacation pay, pension and welfare benefits and
other fringe benefits of all persons employed by Partnership at the Property; it
being the intent of the parties that simultaneously with the Closing,
Partnership shall terminate any existing management agreement and Buyer shall
have no liability or obligation with respect to any employee of the Partnership
or its management company prior to Closing provided thereafter, the Partnership
or Buyer may, at Buyer's option, reemploy all or any of said employees from and
after the Closing;
(d) real
estate taxes, intangible property taxes, water charges and sewer charges, if
any, on the basis of the most recent billing period, as reflected on the actual
invoices/bills issued by the appropriate taxing authority except that if there
is a water meter on the Property, apportionment at the Closing shall be based on
the last available reading, subject to adjustment after the Closing on a per
diem basis, when the next reading is available;
(e) Seller
shall receive a credit for utility deposits for any utility accounts which are
retained by Partnership;
(f) prepayments
paid by Partnership, and payments received by Partnership, under assigned
Service Contracts;
(g) Seller
shall receive a credit in the amount of any escrowed funds held by the Lender
under the Existing Loan which, after Closing, continue to be held by Lender for
the benefit of Buyer and are not required to be used by Lender to cure any
defaults under the Existing Loan; and
(h) Buyer
shall receive a credit in the amount of (A) the lease payments due under that
certain Master Lease Agreement dated as of April 10, 2008 by and between
Commerce Commercial Leasing LLC and the Partnership (the “Equipment Lease”) for
the period from the Closing Date through April 1, 2009 (estimated to be
$73,272.87 assuming a closing date of September 10, 2008 based on the current
lease payments of $8,141.43 per month), plus (B) $176,757.93, which represents
the early buyout termination value on April 1, 2009 pursuant to Rider 2 of the
Equipment Lease.
12.03 If any
operating expenses or other prorations cannot conclusively be determined as of
the date of Closing, then the same shall be adjusted at Closing based upon the
most recently issued bills thus far and shall be re-adjusted within one hundred
eighty (180) days after the Closing occurs.
12.04 Real Estate Tax
Protests/Reductions. General Partner shall not withdraw,
settle or otherwise compromise, nor permit the Partnership to withdraw, settle
or otherwise compromise, any protest or reduction proceeding affecting real
estate taxes assessed against the Real Property for any fiscal period in which
the Closing is to occur or any subsequent fiscal period without the prior
written consent of Buyer. Real estate tax refunds and credits
received after the Closing which are attributable to the fiscal tax year during
which the Closing occurs shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer, after
deducting the expenses of collection thereof, based upon the relative time
periods each indirectly owns the Real Property, which obligation shall survive
the Closing.
12.05 Tax
Matters. The federal and Pennsylvania income tax returns of
the Partnership for the short taxable year beginning January 1, 2008 and ending
on the Closing Date shall be prepared and filed under the direction of Seller
(the "Pre-Closing Tax
Returns"). The federal and Pennsylvania income tax returns of
the Partnership for the short taxable year beginning on the Closing Date and
ending on December 31, 2008 shall be prepared and filed under the direction of
Buyer. The City of Philadelphia Business Privilege Tax and Net
Profits Tax returns for the calendar year 2008 shall be filed by Buyer with the
cooperation of Seller, Seller being responsible for the portion of any tax due
allocable to the period from January 1 to the date of Closing and Buyer being
responsible for the portion of any tax due allocable to the period from and
after the date of Closing. Any prepayments made by Seller to the City
of Philadelphia with respect to such taxes shall be credited to amounts due from
Seller and Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount of any excess prepayments made
by Seller. Seller and Buyer agree that all determinations as to
profit, loss, income and expense for their respective periods of ownership of
the Partnership shall be determined by reference to actual results during the
respective time period and not pro rated for any longer time
period. The parties hereto shall provide to one another the right to
have access to and to copy and use any records or information, and to have
access to any personnel, which may be relevant in connection with the
preparation of, audit of, or contest with respect to any Partnership tax returns
which such party has the right to prepare and file under this Agreement, or
which may affect the tax liability of such party or the
Partnership. Seller and Buyer shall consult each other on an ongoing
basis during the preparation of all such tax returns for the year 2008
concerning any positions to be taken therein and as to any Pre-Closing Tax
Returns for which Seller has assumed responsibility for preparation and filing,
and Seller shall promptly inform Buyer of any decision to extend the filing of
any of the Pre-Closing Tax Returns. At least thirty (30) calendar
days prior to the date on which such Pre-Closing Tax Returns are required to be
filed (taking into account extensions), Seller shall deliver such Pre-Closing
Tax Returns to Buyer for its review. Within ten (10) calendar days of
receipt of such Pre-Closing Tax Returns by Buyer for review, Buyer shall notify
(in writing) Seller of any changes to such Pre-Closing Tax Returns (including
disclosures proposed to be included therein). If Seller disputes any
such changes, it must notify (in writing) Buyer of any such disputed changes
within five (5) calendar days or else all such changes must be included in the
Pre-Closing Tax Returns when filed. The parties shall have the right
to submit their dispute, within five (5) calendar days of the receipt by Buyer
of the written notification that their proposed changes are disputed, for final
resolution to an arbitrator jointly selected by Buyer and by Seller, which
arbitration shall be completed within fifteen (15) calendar days of
submission. If the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator
within the aforesaid five (5) calendar day period, Buyer, on the one hand, and
Seller, on the other, shall each identify an arbitrator by the end of such
period, and the arbitrators so identified shall jointly select the ultimate
arbitrator. The arbitrator shall be a law or accounting firm
nationally recognized in tax matters, and the costs of the arbitration shall be
borne by the parties in inverse proportion as they may prevail on matters
resolved by the arbitrator, which proportionate allocations shall also be
determined by the arbitrator at the time the determination of the arbitrator is
rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. Seller shall
cause the Partnership to make an election under Section 754 of the Code with the
Pre-Closing Tax Returns.

FAILURE TO
PERFORM
13.01 Buyer's
Election. If Seller is unable to satisfy all of the Seller's
obligations as set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to elect,
in its sole discretion, at the Closing, either to waive such failed obligations
and to accept the Partnership Interests subject to such unfulfilled obligations
and to pay therefor the Purchase Price without reduction or offset, in which
case Seller shall convey such Partnership Interests for such price.
13.02 Seller's
Default. If Seller fails to satisfy all of any of Seller's
obligations under this Agreement, and Buyer does not elect to acquire the
Partnership Interests as provided in Section 13.01 hereof, Seller shall be
in default under this Agreement. In such event, Buyer may either (a)
terminate this Agreement, in which case the Deposit made hereunder (together
with all interest accrued thereon) shall be forthwith returned to Buyer and
Buyer shall be entitled to recover Buyer's actual, out-of-pocket expenses
incurred in connection with its investigation of the Property, negotiation of
this Agreement, and proposed financing of the acquisition (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees), not to exceed $250,000 in the
aggregate, or (b) if Buyer desires to purchase the Partnership Interests in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to
compel specific performance by Seller hereunder (and recover Buyer's reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs in connection with Buyer's specific performance action
if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Buyer is the "prevailing
party" in such action), provided, however, that if specific performance is not
available to Buyer because Seller has sold the Partnership Interests to a third
party, Buyer shall have the right to pursue any and all remedies, at law or in
equity, on account of such Seller default.
13.03 Buyer's
Default. The parties acknowledge that in the event of Buyer's
failure to fulfill its closing obligations hereunder it is impossible to compute
exactly the damages which would accrue to Seller in such event. The
parties have taken these facts into account in setting the amount of the
Deposit, and hereby agree that (a) such amount (together with the interest
earned thereon) is the pre-estimate of such damages which would accrue to
Seller, (b) such amount represents damages and not any penalty against Buyer,
and (c) if this Agreement shall be terminated by Seller by reason of Buyer's
failure to fulfill Buyer's obligations hereunder, the Deposit (together with the
interest thereon) shall be Seller's full and liquidated damages in lieu of all
other rights and remedies which Seller may have against Buyer at law or in
equity.

this Agreement shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless of and from any
Loss that is suffered or incurred by Seller, or any of its agents, employees,
officers, directors, members, partners or contractors which both (a) arises out
of a third party claim (whether or not the subject of a legal action) or an
obligation in favor of a third party, and (b) arises out of a third party claim
based on any act or omission, occurring on or after the Closing Date, of Buyer
or the Partnership or any of their respective agents, employees, officers,
directors, members, partners or contractors or otherwise arising out of the
ownership or operation of the Property on or after the Closing
Date. Buyer shall cause the Partnership to confirm this indemnity
immediately upon completion of the Closing.
17.03 Procedure. The
following provisions govern all actions for indemnity under this Article and any
other provision of this Agreement. Promptly after receipt by an
indemnitee of notice of any claim, such indemnitee will, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made against the indemnitor, deliver to the indemnitor written
notice thereof and the indemnitor shall have the right to participate in and, if
the indemnitor agrees in writing that it will be responsible for any costs,
expenses, judgments, damages and losses incurred by the indemnitee with respect
to such claim, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel mutually satisfactory
to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnitee shall have the right to
retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnitee,
if the indemnitee reasonably believes that representation of such indemnitee by
the counsel retained by the indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or
potential differing interest between such indemnitee and any other party
represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of
indemnitee to deliver written notice to the indemnitor within a reasonable time
after indemnitee receives notice of any such claim shall relieve such indemnitor
of any liability to the indemnitee under this indemnity only if and to the
extent that such failure is prejudicial to the indemnitor's ability to defend
such action, and the omission to so deliver written notice to the indemnitor
will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnitee other
than under this indemnity. If an indemnitee settles a claim without
the prior written consent of the indemnitor, then the indemnitor shall be
released from liability with respect to such claim unless the indemnitor has
unreasonably withheld such consent.
17.04 Survival. The
obligations of the parties set forth in this Section 17 shall survive the
Closing Date.
SECTION
18
MISCELLANEOUS
PROVISIONS
18.01 Assignment. Neither
Seller nor Buyer shall have the right to assign this Agreement without the
other's prior written consent, which consent may be given or withheld in the
other's sole and absolute discretion.
18.02 Integration. This
Agreement embodies and constitutes the entire understanding between the parties
with respect to the transaction contemplated herein, and all prior agreements,
understandings, representations and statements, oral or written, are merged into
this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may
be waived, modified, amended, discharged or terminated except by an instrument
signed by the party against whom the enforcement of such waiver, modification,
amendment, discharge or termination is sought, and then only to the extent set
forth in such instrument.
18.03 Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the state in which the Property is
located.
18.04 Captions. The
captions in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and in
no way define, describe or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or any of
the provisions hereof.
18.05 Binding
Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective, permitted successors
and assigns.
18.06 Drafts. This
Agreement shall not be binding or effective until properly executed and
delivered by both Seller and Buyer. The delivery by Buyer to Seller
of an executed counterpart of this Agreement shall constitute an offer which may
be accepted by the delivery to Buyer of a duly executed counterpart of this
Agreement and the satisfaction of all conditions under which such offer is made,
but such offer may be revoked by Buyer by written notice given at any time prior
to such acceptance and satisfaction.
18.07 Number and
Gender. As used in this Agreement, the masculine shall include
the feminine and neuter, the singular shall include the plural and the plural
shall include the singular, as the context may require.
18.08 Construction. This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the state in
which the Real Property is located. The parties acknowledge that each
party and its counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that no rule
of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against
the drafting party shall be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or
any amendments or exhibits hereto or any document executed and delivered by
either party in connection with this Agreement. All captions in this
Agreement are for reference only and shall not be used in the interpretation of
this Agreement or any related documents. If any provision of this
Agreement shall be determined to be illegal, void or unenforceable, such
determination shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement and all
such other provisions shall remain in full force and effect, so long as the
overall intent of the parties may be effectuated without such illegal, void or
unenforceable provision.
18.09 Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, by original signature or
facsimile, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute
one contract, binding on Buyer and Seller, notwithstanding that both parties are
not signatory to the same counterpart.
18.10 Time. Time
is of the essence in the performance of the parties' respective obligations set
forth in this Agreement. If the Closing Date or any other deadline
hereunder should fall on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, such date shall
automatically be extended to the next normal business day. For
purposes of this Agreement a "business day" shall mean any calendar day not a
Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
18.11 Attorneys'
Fees. In the event any dispute between the parties to this
Agreement should result in litigation or other proceeding, the prevailing party
shall be reimbursed by the nonprevailing party for all actual costs and
expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by
the prevailing party in connection with such litigation or other proceeding and
any appeal thereof. Such costs, expenses and fees shall be included
in and made a part of the judgment recovered by the prevailing party, if
any.
18.12 Attachments. If
the provisions of any schedule or rider to this Agreement are inconsistent with
the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of such schedule or rider shall
prevail. The Exhibits and Schedules attached are hereby incorporated
as integral parts of this Agreement.
18.13 No
Recording. Neither this Agreement nor any memorandum or short
form hereof shall be recorded or filed in any public land or other public
records of any jurisdiction, by either party and any attempt to do so may be
treated by the other party as a breach of this Agreement.
18.14 Press
Releases. Buyer shall make no public announcement or
disclosure of any information related to this Agreement to outside brokers or
third parties, before or after the Closing, without the prior written specific
consent of Seller; provided, however, that Buyer may make disclosure of this
Agreement to its lenders, prospective lenders, investors, potential investors,
accountants, consultants, agents and lawyers as necessary to perform its
obligations hereunder and as may be required under laws or regulations
applicable to Buyer, including, without limitation, disclosures required to be
made to the Securities and Exchange Commission and any press releases required
in connection with such Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
18.15 Return of
Property. In the event this Agreement is terminated, Buyer and
its representatives shall promptly deliver to Seller all originals and copies of
all information provided to Buyer by Seller relating to the Property and the
Partnership.

18.16 Tax-Deferred
Exchange. If either party (the "Advising Party") advises the
other party (the "Non-Advising Party") of its intention to seek to effect a tax
deferred exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, in
connection with the purchase of the Property, Non-Advising Party agrees to
accommodate Advising Party in seeking to effect a tax deferred exchange for the
Property, provided that such exchange shall not (i) delay the Closing or (ii)
require Non-Advising Party to incur any cost or liability of any kind or nature
on account of such exchange. Advising Party may assign its rights
under this Agreement immediately prior to the Closing to an Exchange
Accommodation Titleholder of Advising Party's choice for the purpose of
completing such an exchange. Non-Advising Party agrees to cooperate
with Advising Party and the Exchange Accommodation Titleholder with respect to
such exchange and agrees to execute all documentation required to effectuate
such exchange, at no cost or liability to Non-Advising
Party. Non-Advising Party makes no warranty whatsoever with respect
to the qualification of the transaction for tax deferred exchange treatment
under Section 1031 and Non-Advising Party shall have no responsibility,
obligation or liability with respect to the tax consequences to Advising
Party.
18.17 Post-Closing Audit
Rights. For a period of three (3) years after the Closing
Date, upon no less than fifteen (15) days prior written notice, each party
agrees to make available to the other and its respective independent accountants
or attorneys, for inspection and copying, at the requesting party’s sole cost
and expense, sufficient information to prepare tax returns and/or audited
financial statements and an audit letter for the Property for the calendar years
of 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008, as may be required pursuant to regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. All such records shall be made
available for inspection by the requesting party and its independent accountants
or attorneys at such location as the party providing the records may reasonably
choose.
18.18 LP Purchase
Agreement. It is the intention of the parties hereto that one
hundred percent (100%) of the interests in the Partnership be conveyed to the
Buyer under this Agreement and the LP Purchase Agreement and therefore Seller
and Buyer would not be entering into this Agreement unless the LP Purchase
Agreement is executed by the parties thereto. Therefore, it is agreed
that: (a) a default under the LP Purchase Agreement shall constitute
a default under this Agreement; and (b) in the event this Agreement is
terminated by either party pursuant to any applicable provision contained
herein, then the LP Purchase Agreement shall automatically terminate, provided
however, if a condition precedent to Buyer’s obligation to purchase the limited
partnership interests under the LP Purchase Agreement is not satisfied, Buyer
shall nevertheless have the right, without waiving any of Buyer’s remedies under
the LP Purchase Agreement, to waive such contingency and purchase 100% of the
interest in the Partnership, including the Partnership Interests pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement. It is the intention of
the parties that the Closing hereunder and the Closing under the LP Purchase
Agreement occur simultaneously. Therefore, in the event that Buyer is
pursuing a remedy under the LP Purchase Agreement which causes a delay in the
Closing, the Closing hereunder shall be extended until such extended Closing
under the LP Purchase Agreement.
