B. The General Partner is the "Operating General Partner" or the "General Partner" of the Partnership and Assignor the "Limited Partner" of the Partnership.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and for such other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
1. Assignment and Assumption.
1.1 Effective as of the "Closing" (as hereinafter defined):
(a) Assignor hereby assigns to Assignee 100% of Assignor's interest in the Partnership, including, without limitation, Profits and Losses, Cash from Operations, Net Refinancing Cash, surplus cash from Disposition, all other Partnership assets, and all rights to any fees, loan repayments and reimbursements (the "Interest"), and
(b) Assignee assumes and agrees to perform all of the obligations of Assignor under the Partnership Agreement.
1.2 In consideration for Assignor's assignment of the Interest, at the Closing
Assignee shall pay to Assignor an amount (the "Payment") equal to $400,000, payable by federal wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to instructions from Assignor. The Payment shall be treated as a direct acquisition of the Interest. Assignor covenants and agrees that such sum shall be received in full satisfaction of all obligations and liabilities due Assignor in connection with or in any manner arising out of the Partnership, the Project or any other assets owned by the Partnership.
2.1 The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the
"Closing") shall occur no later than March 31, 2011 (the "Closing Date"). In the event the Closing does not occur on or before the Closing Date, this Agreement shall terminate automatically without the necessity of any further action on the part of any of the Parties unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing.
2.2 At the Closing:
(a) As provided in Section 1.2, Assignee shall pay the Payment; and
(b) Assignor, Assignee and the General Partner shall execute and exchange countersigned counterparts of the Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Agreement and Certificate of Limited Partnership of the Partnership in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
3. Representations and Warranties.
3.1 As a material inducement to Assignee entering into this Agreement,
Assignor represents and warrants to Assignee the following are true and correct as of the Effective Date, shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date, and shall survive the Closing and the withdrawal of Assignor from the Partnership:
(a) Assignor is the owner of the Interest and the Interest is not subject to any lien, pledge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever and Assignee shall acquire the same free of any rights or claims thereto by any other party claiming by, through or under Assignor.
(b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Assignor and the performance of the transactions contemplated herein have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate and partnership proceedings and, assuming the due and proper execution and delivery by Assignee and the General Partner, this Assignment is binding upon and enforceable against Assignor in accordance with its terms.
3.2 As a material inducement to Assignor entering into this Agreement,
Assignee represents and warrants to Assignor the following are true and correct as of the Effective Date, shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date, and shall survive the Closing and the withdrawal of Assignor from the Partnership:
(a) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Assignee and the performance of the transactions contemplated herein have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate and partnership proceedings.
(c) No proceeding before any federal, state, municipal or other governmental department, commission, board or agency is pending against Assignee or, to the knowledge of Assignee, threatened against Assignee pursuant to which an unfavorable judgment would restrain, prohibit, invalidate, set aside, rescind, prevent or make unlawful this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder, nor does Assignee know of any reason to believe any such proceeding will be instituted.
(d)
Assignee
has incurred no obligation or liability, contingent or
otherwise,
for brokerage or finders' fees or agents' commissions or other similar payment
in connection
with this Agreement.
(e)
Assignee
is aware of the restrictions on transfer or encumbrance
of the Interest
under the Partnership Agreement, as well as the transfer restrictions imposed by
the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws (the
"Securities
Laws").
Assignee
is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Interest, is aware
that
it must hold the Interest for an indefinite period and that the Interest has not
been registered under
the applicable Securities Laws and may not be sold or otherwise transferred
unless permitted
by the terms of the Partnership Agreement and the Interest is registered, or an
exemption
from the registration requirements is available with respect thereto, under the
Securities
Laws. Assignee is acquiring the Interest for its own account and not with a view
to resell,
transfer or otherwise dispose thereof.
(f)
Assignee
is an Affiliate of a general partner of the Partnership,
and
therefore knows at least as much about the Partnership as Assignor. Assignee is
experienced
in financial transactions such as ownership of the Interest and understands the
business
and operations of the Partnership. Assignee has had an opportunity to ask
questions about
and seek information about the Partnership, and has not relied upon any express
or Implied
representations or warranties from Assignor with regard to the Interest or the
Partnership,
except as expressly provided herein.
3.3 Except as expressly provided in this Section 3, no Party has made any
other representation or warranty concerning the Interest, the Partnership or any other matter.
3.4 As a material inducement to Assignor entering into this Agreement:
(a)
The
General Partner represents and warrants to Assignor that
(i)
the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the General Partner and its
performance of the
transactions contemplated herein have been duly authorized by all requisite
corporate proceedings,
and (ii) assuming the due and proper execution and delivery by Assignor, this
Assignment
is binding upon and enforceable against the General Partner in accordance with
its terms.
The foregoing representations and warranties are true and correct as of the
Effective Date,
shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date, and shall survive the Closing
and the withdrawal of Assignor from the Partnership; and
(b)
The
General Partner covenants to Assignor that on or before
Closing,
the Partnership will have obtained all necessary consents and approvals for the
transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the consents, to
the extent required, of the holders of all Mortgages and all Governmental
Agencies.
