(a) Assignor shall assign to Assignee 100% of Assignor's interest in the Partnership, including, without limitation, Profits, Losses, Cash from Operations, Net Refinancing Cash, surplus cash resulting from Disposition or Partial Disposition of Partnership Property, all other Partnership assets, and all rights to any fees, loan repayments and reimbursements (collectively, the "Interest), and
(b)
Assignee shall assume and shall thereafter perform all of the
obligations of
Assignor under the Partnership Agreement.
1.2 In consideration of Assignor's assignment of the Interest at the Closing, Assignee shall pay to Assignor, in cash, an amount (the "Payment") equal to $25,000 payable $100.00 (the "Deposit') upon the execution of this Agreement and.the balance, $24,900, at the Closing. 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 such Assignor in connection with or in any manner arising out of the Partnership, the Project or any other assets owned by the Partnership. The Payment shall be made by federal funds wired pursuant to instructions from Assignor.
1.3 In addition to the Payment, the General Partners covenant that they shall cause the Partnership to distribute to the Withdrawing Limited Partner full amount of the distribution of Cash from Operations for 2010 due the Withdrawing Limited Partner pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Partnership Agreement, to the extent such distribution has not already been made to the Withdrawing Limited Partner (the "Distribution"). The Distribution shall be made to the Withdrawing Limited Partner at Closing or promptly as the amount of the Distribution has been determined by the Partnership accountants, whichever shall occur later.
2. Closing.
2.1 The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the "Closing") shall occur no later than June 30, 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, and in such event the Deposit shall be refunded to Assignee.
2.2 At the Closing:
(a)
As provided in Section 1.2, Assignee shall pay the balance of the
Payment
and, as provided in Section 1.3, the General Partners shall cause the
Partnership to pay Assignor the Distribution; and
(b)
Assignor, Assignee and the General Partners shall execute and
exchange
countersigned counterparts of the Second Amendment to Amended and Restated
Agreement and Certificate of Limited Partnership of the Partnership in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Amendment").
3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
3.1 As a material inducement to Assignee entering into this Agreement,
Assignor hereby 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)

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 hereby 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:

performance
of the transactions contemplated herein have been duly authorized by all
requisite corporate and partnership proceedings.
(b)
Assuming the due and proper execution and delivery by Assignor,
this
Assignment is binding upon and enforceable against Assignee in accordance with
its terms.
(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.

Assignee has incurred no obligation or liability, contingent or
otherwise,
for brokerage or finders' fees or agents' commissions or other similar payment

respect thereto, under the Securities Laws. Assignee is acquiring the Interest
