INTEREST PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

This Interest Purchase and Sale Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and
effective as of October 20, 2014 (the “Effective Date”) by and between CRA-B1
FUND, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), and INDEPENDENCE
REALTY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Purchaser”).

RECITALS

A. Seller owns 100% of the limited liability company interests (the “Interests”)
in Brookside CRA-B1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”).

B. The Company owns the parcel of land located at 8117 Copper Creek Drive,
Louisville, KY 40222 and described more particularly in Exhibit A attached
hereto and made a part hereof, together with all rights and appurtenances
pertaining to such property, including any right, title and interest of the
Company in and to adjacent streets, alleys, easements or rights-of-way, together
with any improvements thereon, but subject to the Permitted Exceptions
(collectively, the “Property”).

C. Purchaser desires to purchase the Interests and Seller desires to sell the
Interests to Purchaser, subject to the terms and provisions set forth herein.

AGREEMENT

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, Seller and Purchaser hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.

PURCHASE AND SALE

Section 1.1. Agreement of Purchase and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement, Seller agrees to sell and convey to Purchaser, and
Purchaser agrees to purchase from Seller, all of Seller’s right, title and
interest in and to the Interests.

Section 1.2. Purchase Price. Seller agrees to sell and Purchaser agrees to
purchase the Interests for the amount of $20,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”).

Section 1.3. Purchase Price Allocation. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and
agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated among the real property and the
personal property comprising the Property as set forth on Schedule 1.3 attached
hereto and that such allocations represent an arms’ length agreement based on
Purchaser’s and Seller’ good faith judgment as to the fair market value of such
real property and personal property. Purchaser and Seller shall each file all
federal, state and local tax returns and related tax documents and all

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

other filings consistent with the allocations set forth on Schedule 1.3. The
provisions of this Section 1.3 shall survive the Closing.

Section 1.4. Payment of the Purchase Price. The Purchase Price, as increased or
decreased by prorations and adjustments as herein provided, shall be payable in
full at Closing as follows: (a) application of the Deposit to the Purchase Price
and (b) the balance of the Purchase Price in cash by wire transfer of
immediately available federal funds to a bank account designated by Seller in
writing to Purchaser prior to the Closing with value to be received in such
account no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern time.

Section 1.5. Deposit. On or prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on the third
Business Day after the Effective Date, Purchaser shall deposit with Land
Services USA, Inc. (the “Escrow Agent”) an amount equal to $123,078 (the
“Initial Deposit”) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available federal
funds, and failing which, Seller may terminate this Agreement by giving written
notice to Purchaser. On or prior to the Expiration of the Due Diligence Period,
unless Purchaser has terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.4,
Purchaser shall deposit with the Escrow Agent an amount equal to $123,078 (the
“Additional Deposit”) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available federal
funds, and failing which, Seller may terminate this Agreement by giving written
notice to Purchaser. The Initial Deposit and the Additional Deposit, plus any
interest accrued thereon, shall be collectively referred to herein as the
“Deposit”. The Deposit shall be deemed to have been fully earned by Seller upon
the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall be non-refundable except
(i) pursuant to Section 2.2(b), (ii) pursuant to Section 2.4, (iii) pursuant to
Section 5.2 or (iv) in the event of a default hereunder by Seller and a
termination of this Agreement by Purchaser under Section 6.1, and if the Closing
occurs the Deposit shall be paid to Seller and credited against the Purchase
Price at the Closing in accordance with the terms of Section 1.3. Until the
Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall hold
the Deposit and all interest thereon and proceeds thereof subject to the terms
of this Agreement.

Section 1.6. Escrow Agent.

(a) Escrow Agent shall hold and dispose of the Deposit strictly in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any
interest on the Deposit except as it is actually earned, or for the loss of any
interest resulting from the withdrawal of the Deposit prior to the date interest
is posted thereon.

(b) It is understood and agreed that the Escrow Agent’s sole duties hereunder
are as provided herein and that the Escrow Agent in the performance of its
duties hereunder is hereby released and exculpated from all liability except for
willful malfeasance or gross negligence and shall not be liable or responsible
for anything done or omitted to be done in good faith as herein provided. If
either Seller or Purchaser makes a written demand upon the Escrow Agent setting
forth the basis for such demand, for payment of all or a portion of the Deposit,
the Escrow Agent shall send written notice to the other party of such demand and
of its intention to pay over the amount demanded within two Business Days
thereafter. If before the proposed payment date the

 

-2-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection to the proposed payment
setting forth the basis for such objection, the Escrow Agent is hereby
authorized and directed to make such payment. If before the proposed payment
date such other party (or its counsel) delivers to the Escrow Agent a written
objection to such payment setting forth the basis for such objection, the Escrow
Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of such objection to the party originally
demanding payment, and shall continue to hold such amount until otherwise
directed by the joint written instruction of Seller and Purchaser or by a final
judgment of a court which is no longer subject to, or the subject of, an appeal.
In the event that a dispute shall arise as to the disposition of all or any
portion of the Deposit held by the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall, at its
option, either (a) commence an action of interpleader and deposit the same with
a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Kentucky (either a Kentucky or
Federal Court), pending the decision of such court, and shall be entitled to
rely upon the final judgment of any such court with respect to the disposition
of all or any portion of the Deposit provided that such judgment is no longer
subject to, or the subject of, an appeal or (b) hold the same pending receipt of
joint instructions from Seller and Purchaser and shall be entitled to rely upon
such joint instructions with respect to the disposition of all or any portion of
the Deposit. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to consult with counsel and be
reimbursed for all reasonable expenses of such consultation with respect to its
duties as Escrow Agent and shall be further entitled to be reimbursed for all
reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with such activities.
All such expenses shall be paid by the party whose position shall not be
sustained.

(c) Each of Seller and Purchaser shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent
an IRS Form W-9. The party receiving any portion of the interest earned on the
Deposit shall pay all taxes on and with respect to the same. The Escrow Agent
shall not be responsible for any diminution in value of the Purchase Price, loss
of any principal or interest thereon, or penalties incurred with respect
thereto, for any reason whatsoever, provided the Purchase Price has been
invested by the Escrow Agent as hereinabove provided.

ARTICLE II.

TITLE AND SURVEY; DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD

Section 2.1. Seller Diligence Deliveries. Within 10 days after the Effective
Date, Seller shall deliver or make available to Purchaser either at the Property
or through an electronic data room the information related to the Property in
Seller’s or the Company’s possession listed on Exhibit B attached hereto (the
“Seller Diligence Deliveries”). Purchaser acknowledges that the Seller Diligence
Deliveries will be delivered or made available to Purchaser by Seller as a
convenience only, without any representation or warranty as to accuracy or
completeness except as specifically set forth herein. Neither Seller, nor any
affiliate of Seller, shall have any liability to Purchaser for any inaccuracy in
or omission from such Seller Diligence Deliveries.

Section 2.2. Title Review.

 

-3-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(a) On or after the Effective Date, Purchaser may order (i) a title commitment
(the “Title Commitment”) from Land Services USA, Inc., as agent for (x) First
American Title Insurance Company, (y) such other nationally recognized title
insurance company mutually acceptable to Seller and Purchaser or (z) an
alternate title insurance company (or alternate office) selected by Seller
pursuant to Section 2.2(c) (the “Title Company”), together with complete and
legible copies of all instruments and documents referred to therein as
exceptions to title, and (ii) a survey of the Property from a reputable surveyor
or surveying firm reasonably acceptable to the Title Company (the “Survey”)
reflecting the total area of the Property, the location of all improvements,
recorded easements and encroachments, if any, located thereon and all building
and set back lines and plottable matters of record with respect thereto.

(b) Prior to the Expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall deliver
written notice to Seller of any title matters, other than Permitted Exceptions,
identified in the Title Commitment or shown on the Survey (or any supplements or
updates thereto) which Purchaser finds objectionable (“Title Objections”).
Seller shall have 5 Business Days from its receipt of such title objection
notice from Purchaser to notify Purchaser whether Seller commits to cause such
Title Objections to be removed from the land records or insured over (and with
any such matters proposed to be insured over by the Title Company) at Closing,
provided, however that Seller shall be obligated to remove or cause the removal
from the land records of all Monetary Liens at or prior to Closing. Any matters
set forth in the Title Commitment or Survey and not so objected to by Purchaser
(other than Monetary Liens) shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions. If, for
any reason, Seller is unable or unwilling to take such actions as may be
required to remedy or remove from the land records any Title Objections (other
than Monetary Liens) objected to by Purchaser, Seller shall give Purchaser
notice thereof, it being understood and agreed that the failure of Seller to
give such notice within 5 Business Days after receipt of Purchaser’s notice of
objection shall be deemed an election by Seller not to remedy any such matters.
If Seller shall be unable or unwilling to remedy any Title Objections (other
than Monetary Liens) as to which Purchaser has objected, Purchaser may elect
either (i) to terminate this Agreement by notice given to Seller within 5
Business Days following Purchaser’s receipt of Seller’s notice, whereupon the
Deposit shall be refunded to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further
obligations to the other hereunder, except for those obligations which expressly
survive the termination of this Agreement or (ii) to proceed to Closing in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, notwithstanding such
matters and without any abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price on account
thereof. If any matter arises that was not previously disclosed in the Title
Commitment or on the Survey (as same may have been updated), is discovered by
Purchaser or by the Title Company and is added to such Title Commitment by the
Title Company at or prior to Closing, Purchaser shall have five (5) Business
Days (and the Closing shall be extended, if necessary) after Purchaser’s receipt
of such updated Title Commitment showing the new title exception, together with
a legible copy of any such new matter, to provide Seller with written notice of
its objection to any such new title exception (each a “New Objection”, and
collectively, the “New Objections”). If Seller does not elect to remove or cure
New Objections prior to Closing (other than Monetary Liens, which Seller shall
be obligated to cure), which such election shall be given by notice to Purchaser
within 5 Business Days after Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s notice setting
forth such New Objections, Purchaser may, by written notice to Seller, either
(i) agree to accept title subject to the exceptions which Seller is unable to
remove or cause to be removed (in which case such exceptions shall be considered
Permitted Exceptions) or (ii) terminate this Agreement, and in the latter event
the

 

-4-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Deposit and accrued interest thereon shall be returned to Purchaser, and
thereafter, except for those obligations herein which are specifically stated to
survive the termination of this Agreement, neither party shall have any further
right, liability or obligation under this Agreement.

(c) In connection with the issuance of an ALTA 15-06 endorsement to the Title
Policy at Closing, in the event that the Title Company is unable or unwilling to
issue an ALTA 15-06 endorsement to the Title Policy at Closing upon terms and
conditions acceptable to Seller, Seller shall have a one-time right (but not the
obligation) to elect that the Title Policy be issued by an alternate title
insurance company (or an alternate office of the Title Company) selected by
Seller from the list of title insurance companies set forth on Schedule 2.2(c)
attached hereto. In the event Seller so elects, Seller shall deliver written
notice to Purchaser stating Seller’s election, Purchaser shall engage the
alternate title insurance company (or alternate office of the Title Company, as
applicable) selected by Seller for the purpose of issuing the Title Policy and
Seller shall be responsible for 50% of any additional search and exam fees
resulting from Seller’s exercise of its rights set forth in this Section 2.2(c).

Section 2.3. Due Diligence Period.

(a) During the period (the “Due Diligence Period”) beginning on the Effective
Date and ending at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on November 19, 2014 (the “Expiration
of the Due Diligence Period”), Purchaser shall have the right, upon a minimum of
one Business Day’s prior telephonic or written notice to Seller, to make a
physical inspection of the Property, including (i) a non-invasive inspection of
the environmental condition thereof and such non-invasive physical engineering
and other studies and tests on the Property as Purchaser deems appropriate in
its sole discretion and (ii) with Seller’s consent, which Seller may withhold in
its sole discretion, further inspections of the environmental condition of the
Property and further physical engineering and other studies and tests on the
Property that are invasive or could alter the physical condition of the Property
(including examination of materials, soil samples, and groundwater). Prior to
performing any inspection or test (whether non-invasive or otherwise), Purchaser
must deliver a certificate of insurance to the applicable Seller evidencing that
Purchaser and its contractors, agents and representatives have in place
comprehensive general liability insurance (with policy limits of at least
$1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate) and for workers’
compensation insurance (with policy limits not less than statutory requirements)
for its activities on the Property on terms reasonably satisfactory to Seller
covering any accident arising in connection with the presence of Purchaser, its
contractors, agents and representatives on the Property, which insurance shall
name Seller and the Company as additional insureds thereunder and Purchaser
shall bear the cost of all such inspections or tests. All third-party
professional inspection companies or individuals shall be duly licensed.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall give no fewer than two Business
Days’ notice to Seller prior to inspecting any Tenant occupied portions of the
Property. Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.3, Purchaser upon prior
notice to Seller may meet with the current property manager at the Property. At
Purchaser’s request, and to the extent in Seller’s or the Company’s possession,
Seller shall make available to Purchaser copies of the maintenance records and
reports for the Property. Purchaser shall (i) exercise reasonable care at all
times that Purchaser shall be present upon the Property, (ii) at Purchaser’s
expense, observe and comply with all

 

-5-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

applicable laws and any conditions imposed by any insurance policy then in
effect with respect to the Property and made known to Purchaser, (iii) not
engage in any activities which would violate the provisions of any permit or
license pertaining to the Property and made known to Purchaser, (iv) not
unreasonably disturb the Tenants or unreasonably interfere with their use of the
Property pursuant to their respective Leases, (v) not unreasonably interfere
with the operation and maintenance of the Property, (vi) repair any damage to
the Property resulting directly or indirectly from Purchaser’s activities at the
Property and (vii) not disclose any confidential information except as permitted
under this Agreement or required by applicable law. Purchaser’s obligation
pursuant to clauses (vi) and (vii) above shall survive any termination of this
Agreement.

(b) Purchaser understands and agrees that any on-site inspections of the
Property shall occur during normal business hours after the requisite prior
notice to Seller and shall be conducted in accordance with the terms hereof.
Seller reserves the right to have a representative present during any such
inspections and property manager interviews. If the Closing does not occur, then
on request by Seller and payment by Seller to Purchaser 50% of Purchaser’s
out-of-pocket costs for any requested inspection reports, Purchaser will furnish
to Seller any draft of final reports received by Purchaser and requested by
Seller relating to any inspections of the Property.

(c) Purchaser agrees to protect, indemnify, defend and hold Seller and the
Company harmless from and against any claim for liabilities, losses, costs,
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), damages or injuries arising out
of or resulting from the inspection of the Property by Purchaser or its agents
or consultants, excluding any liabilities, losses, costs and expenses, damages
or injuries arising out of, and then only to the extent of, (i) Seller’s or the
Company’s negligence or willful misconduct or (ii) any pre-existing condition
discovered or revealed in the inspection of the Property by Purchaser or its
agents or consultants. Purchaser’s obligation to indemnify and hold harmless
Seller and the Company pursuant to this Section 2.3(c) shall survive the Closing
or any termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.4. Right of Termination. At any time prior to the Expiration of the
Due Diligence Period, Purchaser may elect, for any reason or no reason, to
terminate this Agreement. Unless Purchaser delivers written notice to Seller
prior to the Expiration of the Due Diligence Period stating that it is electing
to terminate this Agreement, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived its right
to terminate this Agreement under this Section 2.4 and to have elected to
proceed with the purchase of the Interests pursuant to this Agreement, and the
Deposit shall be non-refundable to Purchase except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement. If Purchaser timely elects to terminate this Agreement under this
Section 2.4, neither party shall have any further rights or obligations
hereunder (except for any indemnity obligations of either party and the
provisions of this Agreement which expressly survive termination of this
Agreement) and the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser.

Section 2.5. No Reliance. Except as expressly set forth herein or in any
document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing, Seller makes
no representation or warranty as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of any
materials, data or information delivered

 

-6-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

by Seller or its agents to Purchaser in connection with the transaction
contemplated hereunder, whether occurring before, on or after the Effective
Date. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that all materials, data and information
delivered by Seller to Purchaser in connection with the transaction contemplated
hereunder are provided to Purchaser as a convenience only and that any reliance
on or use of such materials, data or information by Purchaser is at the sole
risk of Purchaser, except as expressly set forth herein or in any document
executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing. Except as specifically
set forth herein or in any document executed by Seller and delivered to
Purchaser at Closing, neither Seller, nor any affiliate of Seller, shall have
any liability to Purchase for any inaccuracy in or omission from any such
materials, data or information.

Section 2.6. As-Is, Where-Is. Except as expressly set forth herein or in any
document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing, 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, including,
without limitation, any representations or warranties as to fitness for a
particular purpose. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that upon Closing, Seller
shall sell and convey to Purchaser and Purchaser shall accept the Property “AS
IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS”, except as expressly set forth herein or in any
document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing. Purchaser has
not relied and will not rely on, and Seller is not and shall not be liable for
or bound by, any express or implied warranties, guaranties, statements,
representations or information pertaining to the Property or relating thereto
made available or furnished by Seller, the managers of the Property or any real
estate broker or agent representing or purporting to represent Seller, to
whomever made or given, directly or indirectly, orally or in writing, unless
specifically set forth in this Agreement or in any document executed by Seller
and delivered to Purchaser at Closing. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that
the Purchase Price reflects and takes into account that the Property is being
sold “AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS.” Purchaser represents to Seller that
Purchaser has conducted such investigations of the Property, including, without
limitation, the physical and environmental conditions thereof, as Purchaser
deems necessary or desirable to satisfy itself as to the condition of the
Property and the existence or nonexistence or curative action to be taken with
respect to any hazardous or toxic substances on or discharged from the Property,
and will rely solely upon the same and not upon any information provided by or
on behalf of Seller or its agents or employees with respect thereto, other than
such representations and warranties of Seller as are expressly set forth herein
or in any document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing.
Upon Closing, Purchaser shall assume the risk that adverse matters, including
but not limited to construction defects and adverse physical and environmental
conditions, may not have been revealed by Purchaser’s investigations, and except
with respect to matters which by the express terms of this Agreement or any
document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser at Closing survive
Closing and except for any claims arising out of the fraudulent actions of
Seller, Purchaser, upon Closing, shall be deemed to have waived, relinquished
and released Seller (and Seller’s officers, directors, shareholders, direct and
indirect members, employees and agents) from and against any and all claims,
demands, causes of action (including causes of action in tort), losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of any and every
kind or character, known or unknown, which Purchaser might have asserted or
alleged against Seller (and Seller’s officers, directors, shareholders, direct
and indirect members, employees and agents) at any time by reason of or arising
out of any latent or

 

-7-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

patent construction defects or physical conditions, violations or any applicable
laws and any and all other facts, omissions, events, circumstances or matters
regarding the Property.

Section 2.7. Environmental Waiver and Release. Purchaser and each of its
members, directors, officers, employees, controlling persons, representatives,
agents, successors and assigns waive and release Seller, the Company and their
respective officers, directors, shareholders, direct and indirect members,
employees and agents (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any and all
losses or claims of Purchaser that (i) arise under any environmental law with
respect to the Property or (ii) arise from or relate to an actual, threatened or
suspected presence or release of materials of environmental concern at, on,
under or from the Property no matter when the same may have occurred.

Section 2.8. Survival. The provisions of Sections 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 and
this Section 2.8 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE III.

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

Section 3.1. Representations and Warranties of Seller. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, the representations and warranties made by Seller in
this Agreement and in any document executed by Seller and delivered to Purchaser
at Closing shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to incorporate any
matter disclosed in the Seller Diligence Deliveries. Seller hereby makes the
following representations and warranties to Purchaser as of the Effective Date,
which representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been made again by
Seller as of the Closing Date, subject to the preceding sentence and to
Section 4.6(c):

(a) Organization and Authority. Seller has been duly organized and is in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has been duly
organized and is in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and is
qualified to do business in the State of Kentucky. Seller has the full right and
authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate or cause to be
consummated the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. The person signing
this Agreement on behalf of Seller is authorized to do so. This Agreement
constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller, enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general applicability
relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and general
equitable principles.

References to the “knowledge” of Seller refer only to the current actual
knowledge of David W. Snyder and Paul Priebe without any duty of inquiry or
investigation and shall not be

 

-12-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

construed, by imputation or otherwise, to refer to the knowledge of Seller or
any affiliate of Seller, to any property manager or to any other officer, agent,
manager, representative or employee of Seller or any affiliate thereof. Seller
represents and warrants that David W. Snyder and Paul Priebe are the
representatives of Seller that have primary responsibility to oversee the
Company’s management of the Property and are the representatives of Seller who
are most likely to have knowledge at the Seller level regarding the subject
matter of the representations and warranties regarding the Property set forth in
Section 3.1 above.

Section 3.2. Seller’s Covenants.

(a) Maintenance. From and after the Effective Date and until the Closing Date or
any earlier termination of this Agreement (the “Contract Period”), Seller shall
cause the Company to keep and maintain the Property substantially in its
condition as of the Effective Date in accordance with Seller’s current business
practices, excepting ordinary wear and tear and any damage by casualty or
condemnation.

(b) Insurance. During the Contract Period, Seller will cause the Company to keep
in full force and effect, and pay all premiums on, all casualty and liability
insurance policies covering the Property in the ordinary course of business.

(c) Leases. During the Contract Period, Seller shall have the right to cause the
Company to enter into new Leases or amend, modify, renew, extend or terminate
any existing Lease in the ordinary course of business, on market terms
consistent with Seller’s current business practices, including, without
limitation, terminating any Lease by reason of Tenant’s default thereunder
(collectively, “Leasing Activity”), and Seller shall provide Purchaser with
prompt notice of any such Leasing Activity; provided, however, that from and
after the Expiration of the Due Diligence Period, neither Seller nor the Company
shall engage in any such Leasing Activity without the prior written consent of
Purchaser, which consent Purchaser shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or
condition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the removal of any Tenant in
accordance with Seller’s current business practices, whether by summary
proceedings or otherwise, prior to the Closing Date shall not give rise to any
claim on the part of Purchaser. Further, Purchaser agrees that it shall not have
a claim by reason of the fact that any Tenant now or hereafter in possession of
part of the Property may be a holdover tenant or in default under its applicable
Lease on the Closing Date.

(d) Contracts. During the Contract Period, Seller shall not cause the Company to
enter into new Contracts or amend, modify, renew, extend or terminate any
existing Contract (other than with respect to Contracts that shall expire or be
terminated without penalty on or prior to the Closing Date, or Contracts that
may be terminated without penalty on 30 days’ notice or less) without the prior
written consent of Purchaser, which consent Purchaser shall not unreasonably
withhold, condition or delay.

apartment units to be in “Rent Ready Condition”, other than (i) such apartments
which become vacant less than seven (7) days prior to Closing and (ii) such
apartments with respect to which Seller elects instead to provide Purchaser with
the Purchase Price credit set forth in Section 4.5(g). As used

 

-13-

herein, “Rent Ready Condition” shall mean “made ready” and suitable for
occupancy in accordance with the Company’s current standards.

(f) Delinquency Report. Seller shall provide Purchaser with a delinquency report
on a monthly basis until Closing, listing all delinquent tenants by amount and
time delinquent.

(g) Material Changes. Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in writing if
Seller receives written notice from any third party of any event or circumstance
which would be reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Property in
excess of $10,000 or on Seller’s ability to execute or perform its obligations
under this Agreement in all material respects.

Section 3.3. Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser hereby makes
the following representations and warranties to Seller as of the Effective Date,
which representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been made again by
Purchaser as of the Closing Date, subject to Section 4.7(c):

(a) Organization and Authority. Purchaser has been duly organized and is in good
standing under the laws of the state of its formation. Purchaser has the full
right and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate or cause to
be consummated the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. The person
signing this Agreement on behalf of Purchaser is authorized to do so. This
Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general
applicability relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and
general equitable principles.

(b) Non-Contravention. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser
and the consummation by Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby will
not (i) to Purchaser’s knowledge, violate any judgment, order, injunction,
decree, regulation or ruling of any court or governmental entity, (ii) conflict
with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under the organizational
documents of Purchaser or (iii) conflict with, result in a breach of, or
constitute a default under the organizational documents of Purchaser, any note
or other evidence of indebtedness, any mortgage, deed of trust or indenture, or
any other material agreement or instrument to which Purchaser is a party or by
which Purchaser may be bound in any manner that would individually or in the
aggregate interfere with the consummation of the transaction contemplated by
this Agreement.

(c) Consents. No consent, waiver, approval or authorization is required from any
person or entity (that has not already been obtained) in connection with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser or the performance by
Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) No Bankruptcy. No attachments, execution proceedings, assignments for the
benefit of creditors, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other
proceedings are pending or, to Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against
Purchaser, nor are any such proceedings contemplated by Purchaser. Purchaser has
not made a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, filed any voluntary
petition in bankruptcy or admitted in writing its inability to pay its

 

-14-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

debts as they come due, and Purchaser has received no written notice of and has
no knowledge of the filing of any involuntary petition in bankruptcy by
Purchaser’s creditors or the appointment of a receiver to take possession of all
or substantially all of Purchaser’s assets.

(e) Pending Actions. To Purchaser’s knowledge, there is no action, suit,
arbitration, unsatisfied order or judgment, government investigation or
proceeding pending against Purchaser which, if adversely determined, could
individually or in the aggregate materially interfere with the consummation of
the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

(f) OFAC. Neither Purchaser nor, to Purchaser’s knowledge, any of its respective
partners, members, shareholders or other equity owners, is a person or entity
with whom U.S. persons or entities are restricted from doing business under
regulations of OFAC (including those named on OFAC’s Specially Designated and
Blocked Persons List) or under any statute, executive order (including the
September 24, 2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting
Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism).

Section 3.4. Purchaser’s Covenants. During the Contract Period, Purchaser shall
observe all of the covenants and conditions applicable to Purchaser hereunder.

Section 3.5. No Brokers. Seller and Purchaser each represent to the other that
it has had no dealings, negotiations or consultations with any broker,
representative, employee, agent or other intermediary in connection with the
sale of the Property. Seller and Purchaser agree that each will indemnify,
defend and hold the other free and harmless from any claims arising from a
breach of the foregoing representations. This mutual indemnity shall survive
Closing and any termination of this Agreement.

Section 3.6. Survival; Limitation on Liability of Seller Parties.

(a) The representations and warranties made herein by Seller shall survive the
Closing for a period of nine months following the Closing Date, provided that
such expiration shall not affect the liability or indemnification obligations of
Seller with respect to claims made by Purchaser in writing (a “Claim Notice”)
delivered prior to the date of such expiration and, if not resolved, Purchaser
has filed suit in connection with the matter set forth in such Claim Notice
within six months after Seller’s receipt of the Claim Notice.

(b) Purchaser shall not have any right to bring any action against the Seller
Parties as a result of any breach or inaccuracy of the representations and
warranties made herein by the Seller Parties (a “Breach”) unless and until the
aggregate amount of all liability and losses arising out of any such Breach
directly results in a diminution in the value of the Interests in an amount
greater than $100,000.00, and the aggregate liability of the Seller Parties
arising in connection with all Breaches shall not in any event exceed
$400,000.00 of the Purchase Price (the “Liability Cap”). None of the directors,
officers, employees, shareholders, direct or indirect

 

-15-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

members, managers, beneficial owners, partners, affiliates, agents,
representatives or advisors of any of the Seller Parties shall be liable under
this Agreement, and Purchaser shall look solely to the assets of the Seller

in the form of cash or cash equivalents an amount equal to $400,000.00 until the
date that is nine months following the Closing Date (or, if Purchaser has timely
provided a Claim Notice within such nine-month period, until the date that any
claim in such Claim Notice has been finally resolved by a court of competent
jurisdiction). The provisions of this Section 3.6 shall survive the Closing or
any termination of this Agreement.

this Agreement (the “Closing”) will occur on the date that is 15 days after the
Expiration of the Due Diligence Period or such earlier date as the parties shall

with Seller’s selection of an alternate title insurance company pursuant to

(iii) recording fees for any documents to be recorded (other than Monetary
Liens); and (iv) the cost of the Title Policy and any endorsements attached

Lien). All costs and expenses incident to this transaction and the Closing and
not specifically described above shall be paid by the party incurring the same.

Section 4.3. Conditions Precedent to the Obligations of Seller. The obligation
of Seller to consummate the transaction contemplated

 

-16-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

hereunder shall be subject to the fulfillment on or before the Closing Date of
each of the following conditions, any or all of which may be waived by Seller in
its sole discretion:

(a) Escrow Agent shall have received the Purchase Price, subject to prorations
and adjustments as provided herein, with unconditional instructions to disburse
same in accordance with the agreed-upon settlement statement simultaneously with
Seller’s authorization to release the documents for delivery to Purchaser, all
pursuant to and payable in the manner provided for in this Agreement;

(b) Purchaser shall have delivered to Seller all of the items required to be
delivered to Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including but not
limited to, those provided for in Section 4.7;

Date (with appropriate modifications permitted under this Agreement);

(d) Purchaser shall have performed and observed, in all material respects, all
covenants and agreements of this Agreement to be performed and observed by
Purchaser as of the Closing Date; and

(e) the closing date under the Related Agreements shall be the same as the
Closing Date hereunder, and the closing under the Related Agreements shall occur
simultaneously with the Closing hereunder.

Section 4.4. Conditions Precedent to the Obligations of Purchaser. The
obligation of Purchaser to consummate the transaction contemplated hereunder
shall be subject to the fulfillment on or before the Closing Date of each of the
following conditions, any or all of which may be waived by Purchaser in its sole
discretion:

(a) Seller shall have delivered to Purchaser all of the items required to be
delivered to Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including but
not limited to, the items provided for in Section 4.6;

(b) all of the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this
Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing
Date (with appropriate modifications permitted under this Agreement);

(c) Seller shall have performed and observed, in all material respects, all
covenants and agreements of this Agreement to be performed and observed by

-17-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(e) the Title Company shall be irrevocably committed, upon payment of the
applicable Title Policy premium, to issue to Purchaser, at Purchaser’s expense,

(f) the closing date under the Related Agreements shall be the same as the
Closing Date hereunder, and the closing under the Related Agreements shall occur
simultaneously with the Closing hereunder, unless any Related Agreement is
terminated pursuant to the terms thereof as the result of Major Damage.

sale of the Property as contemplated hereunder is not consummated solely due to
the failure of the Title Company to be irrevocably committed, upon payment of
the applicable Title Policy premium, to issue an ALTA 15-06 endorsement to the
Title Policy, and Purchaser has notified Seller in writing of such circumstance
and is not in default under this Agreement, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its
sole remedy, to receive the return of the Deposit, together with reimbursement
from Seller for all of Purchaser’s costs and expenses incurred in connection
with this Agreement in an amount not to exceed $50,000, in which event this

obligation under this Agreement except obligations which expressly survive the
termination of this Agreement.

Section 4.5. Credits and Prorations.

(a) Generally. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Section 4.5, the
following items, without duplication, will be apportioned between Seller and
Purchaser with respect to the Property as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on the day
immediately prior to the Closing Date, and the net amount thereof will either be
(x) added to the Purchase Price that is due to Seller at Closing or (y) credited
by Seller against the Purchase Price at Closing: (i) real property taxes and
assessments, (ii) water rates and charges; (iii) sewer taxes and rents;
(iv) prepaid license and permit fees to the extent such licenses and permits are
being transferred to Purchaser hereunder, (v) amounts payable or receivable by
Seller or its affiliates under any Contracts (including amounts pre-paid to
Seller and not subject to refund under any Contract which is not terminable upon
thirty days’ notice), (vi) statutory representation fees for the Company and
(vii) all other items that reasonably require apportionment in accordance with
local custom and practice to effectuate the transaction contemplated hereunder.
Seller and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate to provide such apportionment
information to the Title Company not later than five Business Days before
Closing, and the Title Company will prepare a closing statement (the “Closing
Statement”) reflecting the apportionments and credits required under this
Agreement.

(b) Governmental Charges. If the Closing Date occurs before the real property
taxes, water rates and charges, or sewer taxes and rents are finally fixed for
the current fiscal year in respect of the Property, then the apportionments
thereof made at the Closing shall be upon 105% of the basis of the tax, water,
or sewer rates for the immediately preceding year applied to the latest assessed
valuation, but after the real property taxes, water rates and charges, or sewer
taxes and rents (as the case may be) are finally fixed for the current fiscal
year, Seller and Purchaser shall make a recalculation of the apportionment
thereof, and Seller or Purchaser, as the case may

 

-18-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

be, shall make an appropriate payment to the other party based on such
recalculation within 30 days after the parties agree on the recalculation.

(c) Utilities. If there are any meters measuring water consumption, electric or
other utility costs at the Property, the unfixed rates and charges and sewer
taxes and rents, if any, will be apportioned based upon the last meter readings.
Seller will at its election either receive a credit at Closing for all deposits
posted with any utility companies which shall then inure to the benefit of
Purchaser or will arrange for the return of such deposits to Seller. In either
case, it will be Purchaser’s responsibility to make arrangements with such
utility companies regarding any deposit requirements for continued utility
service to the Property.

(d) Fuel Oil. Fuel oil, if any, located at the Property on the Closing Date will
be adjusted at the price in effect at such times as determined in writing by the
fuel company then supplying fuel to the Property.

(e) Assessments. If, on the Closing Date, the Property, or any part thereof, is
affected by any real property tax assessments which are currently due and
payable, then Seller shall pay such assessments; provided, however, that if such
assessments are payable in installments, then Seller shall pay installments due
prior to the Closing Date, and the next installment shall be apportioned as of
the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall be responsible for all such installments
thereafter.

(f) Security Deposits, Rents and Charges Under Leases and Other Income Sources.
Purchaser will receive a credit at Closing in an amount equal to all Security
Deposits being held by Seller as of Closing (or applied or retained by Seller
other than in the ordinary course of business). Purchaser will receive a credit
at Closing in an amount equal to all rents and other charges collected by Seller
prior to Closing for the number of days in the month of Closing remaining after
the Closing and for any other period following Closing, including, without
limitation, any prepaid rents. Seller hereby reserves the right to institute
legal proceedings, without, however, any claim for eviction, after the Closing
against any Tenant to collect rent and charge collections with respect to the
Property due to Seller for rents and charges in arrears as of the Closing Date.
Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to collect any such rents and charges in
arrears of the Closing Date, and any such amounts that Purchaser collects on or
after the Closing Date shall be applied first to the month in which the Closing
occurs, and then to rent and charges due but unpaid in reverse chronological
order. Purchaser in the good faith exercise of its business judgment shall have
the right to forgive or compromise any past due rents as part of a settlement
with a delinquent tenant, and Seller agrees not to bring suit against any
delinquent tenant for sums payable under the Leases. The foregoing covenant not
to sue shall not apply to any tenant who has vacated its space (unless, if in
connection with the termination of such tenant’s lease, Purchaser has forgiven
or compromised past due rent).

(g) Rent Ready. For any apartment unit that is vacated on or before the date
that is seven (7) days prior to Closing, Seller shall, at Seller’s election,
either (i) credit Purchaser $500.00 for the cost and expenses to put the unit in
Rent Ready Condition or (ii) cause such apartment unit to be in Rent Ready
Condition as of the date of Closing.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(h) Final Closing Statement. Seller and Purchaser will adjust any apportionments
made under this Section 4.5 after the Closing to account for errors or incorrect
estimates made as of the Closing Date (it being agreed that the parties’
agreement to make such adjustments will survive the Closing for a period of six
months). Within six months following the Closing Date, Purchaser or its agent
will prepare, and Seller will review and approve (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld and which shall be deemed to have been given unless Seller
gives its specific objections thereto in writing within 10 Business Days after
receipt thereof) a final closing statement (the “Final Closing Statement”)
setting forth the final determination which will show the net amount due either
to Seller or to Purchaser as the result of the adjustments and prorations
provided for herein, and such net due amount, if any, will be due to Seller or
Purchaser, as applicable. The net amount due Seller or Purchaser, if any, by
reason of any adjustments as shown in the Final Closing Statement (including any
open items), shall be paid in cash by wire transfer by the party obligated
therefor within 10 Business Days following that party’s receipt of the approved
Final Closing Statement. Purchaser and Seller shall provide one another and
their respective representatives with reasonable backup documentation evidencing
the amounts set forth on the Final Closing Statement. The provisions of this
Section 4.5 shall survive the Closing.

attached hereto as Exhibit D, conveying the 100% of the Interests to Purchaser;

(b) deliver to Purchaser, not later than five Business Days before the Closing

or warranty that is not, or no longer is, true and correct and explaining the
state of facts giving rise to such change. In no event shall Seller be liable to
Purchaser for, or be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of, any breach
of representation or warranty that results from any change that (i) occurs
between the Effective Date and the Closing Date and (ii) is expressly permitted
under the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the occurrence of a
change that is not permitted hereunder shall constitute the non-fulfillment of
the condition set forth in Section 4.4(b). If, despite changes or other matters
described in the Seller Closing Certificate, the Closing occurs, Seller’s
representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed to
have been modified by all statements made in the Seller Closing Certificate;

reasonably require as to the authority of the person or persons executing
documents on behalf of Seller;

Closing Date, all Brokerage Agreements and property management agreements, as
well as any Contracts which Purchaser elects, on or prior to the Expiration of
the Due Diligence Period, not to assume and deliver to Purchaser evidence of
each such termination; provided, however, that if any termination fees or other
penalties are incurred by the Company as a result of the termination of such
Contracts, the amount of any such fees or penalties shall be credited to Seller
at Closing or otherwise paid by Purchaser;

(h) deliver an executed counterpart to the Closing Statement;

(i) make available to Purchaser, to the extent not already provided, the Leases
and Contracts, together with such leasing and property files and records located

operation, leasing and maintenance of the Property, but excluding any documents
of a confidential nature;

(j) deliver to Purchaser possession and occupancy of the Property (including all
keys, lock combinations, and pass keys), subject to the Permitted Exceptions,
rights of Tenants and terms of the Contracts;

(k) deliver a schedule of Security Deposits currently held by Seller on behalf
of the Tenants; and

(l) deliver such additional documents as shall be reasonably required to

pursuant to Section 1.3, the full amount of the Purchase Price, subject to
prorations and adjustments as provided herein;

(b) deliver to Seller an executed counterpart to the Assignment and Assumption

representation or warranty that is not, or no longer is, true and correct and

Purchaser be liable

 

-21-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to Seller for, or be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of, any breach
of representation or warranty that results from any change that (i) occurs
between the Effective Date and the Closing Date and (ii) is expressly permitted
under the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the occurrence of a
change that is not permitted hereunder shall constitute the non-fulfillment of
the condition set forth in Section 4.3(c). If, despite changes or other matters
described in the Purchaser Closing Certificate, the Closing occurs, Purchaser’s
representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed to
have been modified by all statements made in the Purchaser Closing Certificate;

(d) deliver to the Title Company such evidence as the Title Company may
reasonably require as to the authority of the person or persons executing
documents on behalf of Purchaser;

(e) deliver an executed counterpart to the Closing Statement; and

(f) deliver such additional documents as shall be reasonably required to
consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 4.8. Application of Purchase Price to Monetary Liens at Closing. To

Seller may elect, at the Closing, to use the Purchase Price or any portion
thereof to clear the title of the Property of any or all Monetary Liens.

ARTICLE V.

RISK OF LOSS

Section 5.1. Minor Damage. In the event of Property Damage that is not Major
Damage, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect provided that
Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest in
and to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with respect to any property or
casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in
question less any costs of collection or restoration with respect thereto
incurred by Seller and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to
the lesser of the deductible amount under Seller’s insurance policy or the cost
of such repairs as reasonably determined by Purchaser and Seller. As of 12:01
a.m. Eastern time on the Closing Date, full risk of loss with respect to the
Property shall pass to Purchaser.

Section 5.2. Major Damage.

(a) In the event of Property Damage constituting Major Damage, Purchaser may
terminate this Agreement only by written notice to Seller. If Purchaser does not
elect to terminate this Agreement within 10 Business Days after Seller sends
Purchaser written notice of the occurrence of such Major Damage, then Purchaser
shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with the purchase and sale of the
Property, in which event Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right,
title and interest in and to any claims and proceeds Seller may have with
respect to any property or casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards
relating

 

-22-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to the Property and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to
the lesser of the deductible amount under Seller’s insurance policy or the cost
of such repairs as reasonably determined by Purchaser and Seller. If Purchaser
timely elects to terminate this Agreement under this Section 5.2, neither party
shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder (except for any indemnity
obligations of either party and the provisions of this Agreement which expressly
survive termination of this Agreement) and the Deposit shall be returned to
Purchaser.

(b) Seller has the right to pursue payment of any awards or proceeds in
connection with any such condemnation proceeding and/or the settlement or
negotiation of any insurance claim. In the event this Agreement is not
terminated as the result of such Major Damage pursuant to the terms hereof,
Purchaser shall have the right to participate in the settlement or negotiation
of claims for all awards or proceeds and/or participate in any proceedings
related to a condemnation of the Property and, in connection therewith, Seller
shall, and shall cause the Company to, promptly deliver to Purchaser upon
request all material documents received by Seller in connection with the
foregoing. In the event this Agreement is not terminated as the result of such
Major Damage pursuant to the terms hereof, Seller shall not, and shall not allow
the Company to, accept any award or enter into any settlement without first
obtaining the prior written consent of Purchaser, not to be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed.

ARTICLE VI.

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

Section 6.1. Default by Seller; Purchaser’s Remedies. In the event the sale of
the Property as contemplated hereunder is not consummated due to Seller’s
default hereunder, and Purchaser has notified Seller in writing of such default
and is not in default under this Agreement, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its
sole remedy, either (i) to receive the return of the Deposit, together with
reimbursement from Seller for all of Purchaser’s costs and expenses incurred in
connection with this Agreement in an amount not to exceed $50,000, in which
event this Agreement shall be terminated and neither Seller nor Purchaser shall
have any obligation under the Agreement except the obligations which expressly
survive the termination of this Agreement or (ii) to enforce specific
performance of Seller’s obligation to convey title to the Property in accordance
with this Agreement, it being understood and agreed that the remedy of specific
performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller
hereunder; provided, however, if such Seller’s default (if curable) is cured
within 10 Business Days after receipt of written notice thereof from Purchaser,
Purchaser shall not be entitled to exercise the remedies in clauses (i) and
(ii) above. Except as set forth above, Purchaser expressly waives its rights to
seek damages of any kind in the event of Seller’s default hereunder. Purchaser
shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and receive a return
of the Deposit and reimbursement of its expenses as provided above if Purchaser
fails to file suit against Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the county
in which the Property is located, on or before 30 days following the date upon
which Closing was to have occurred.

Section 6.2. Default by Purchaser; Seller’s Remedies.

 

-23-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(a) In the event the sale of the Property as contemplated hereunder is not
consummated due to Purchaser’s default hereunder, and Purchaser’s default (if
curable) is not cured within 10 Business Days after receipt of written notice

Agreement.

(b) THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT SELLER’S ECONOMIC DETRIMENT RESULTING FROM THE
REMOVAL OF THE PROPERTY FROM THE REAL ESTATE MARKET FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF
TIME AND ANY CARRYING AND OTHER COSTS INCURRED AFTER THE REMOVAL OF THE PROPERTY

ASCERTAIN. THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT IS A
REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES THAT WILL BE INCURRED BY SELLER IN THE EVENT
THE CLOSING FAILS TO OCCUR DUE TO A DEFAULT OR BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT BY
PURCHASER. PURCHASER AGREES THAT IN THE EVENT THE CLOSING FAILS TO OCCUR DUE TO
SUCH DEFAULT OR BREACH BY PURCHASER OF PURCHASER’S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE
PROPERTY, SELLER, AS ITS SOLE REMEDY, SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE AND RETAIN
THE DEPOSITS AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, WHICH SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE A
FORFEITURE OR PENALTY. THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION ALSO SHALL NOT SERVE AS
A LIMITATION ON THE AMOUNT OF ATTORNEYS’ FEES THAT SELLER MAY PURSUE OR COLLECT
FROM PURCHASER IN THE EVENT SELLER INCURS ATTORNEYS’ FEES IN ATTEMPTING TO
COLLECT OR RETAIN THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES REFERRED TO HEREIN (AND SELLER IS THE
PREVAILING PARTY IN SUCH DISPUTE IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 7.15 BELOW).

Section 6.3. Indemnification Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in Sections
6.1 or 6.2 to the contrary, in no event shall the provisions of Sections 6.1 or
6.2 limit the damages recoverable by either party against the other due to the
other party’s obligation to indemnify such party in accordance with this
Agreement. This Section 6.3 shall survive the Closing or any termination of this
Agreement.

Section 6.4. Limitation on Seller Parties’ Personal Liability. Purchaser agrees
that it shall look solely to the Property and the Deposit, and not to any other
assets of Seller, the Company or their respective directors, officers,
employees, shareholders, direct or indirect members, managers, beneficial
owners, partners, affiliates, agents, representatives or advisors or any of
their assets to enforce Purchaser’s rights under this Agreement, and that none
of the directors, officers, employees, shareholders, direct or indirect members,
managers, beneficial owners, partners, affiliates, agents, representatives or
advisors of Seller or the Company shall have any personal obligation or
liability hereunder, and that Purchaser shall not seek to assert any claim or
enforce any of Purchaser’s rights hereunder against any such parties. The
provisions of this Section 6.4 shall survive the Closing or any termination of
this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 7.1. Confidentiality.

(a) Except as required by law, Purchaser and its representatives shall hold in
strictest confidence all data and information obtained with respect to Seller or
its business, whether obtained before or after the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, except (i) such data and information that is or may be required
to be disclosed by Purchaser under any law, rule, regulation, court order or
other judicial process and (ii) such data and information that is or becomes
generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure in breach
of this Agreement; provided, however, that Purchaser may disclose such data and
information to the directors, trustees, advisors, employees, lenders,
consultants, accountants and attorneys of Purchaser and its affiliates, provided
that Purchaser instructs such persons to treat such data and information
confidentially. In the event this Agreement is terminated or Purchaser fails to
perform hereunder, Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller or destroy any
statements, documents, schedules, exhibits or other written information obtained
from Seller in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated
herein. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Purchaser or its agents
or representatives of this Section 7.1, Seller shall be entitled to an
injunction restraining Purchaser or its agents or representatives from
disclosing, in whole or in part, such confidential information. Nothing herein
shall be construed as prohibiting Seller from pursuing any other available
remedy at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach, but in no event
shall Purchaser be liable to Seller for punitive or consequential damages.

(b) Seller or Purchaser may release to the public information describing in
general terms the sale contemplated hereunder, but all references to Seller or
any direct or indirect owners of Seller or to the Purchase Price in any such
release are subject to the prior written approval of Seller, which approval
Seller may withhold in its sole discretion.

(c) Notwithstanding the terms of Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(b) to the
contrary, Seller acknowledges that Purchaser is affiliated with publicly traded
real estate investment trusts, namely Independence Realty Trust, Inc. (“IRT”)
and RAIT Financial Trust (“RAIT”, and together with IRT, the “REITs”), and
either of the REITs may determine in their reasonable discretion that the public
disclosure of any information subject to Section 7.1 is necessary or advisable
under applicable securities laws (including, without limitation, information
regarding the terms of this Agreement, the Purchase Price, the Property and
Seller) and Seller agrees that any such disclosure by the REITs, the Purchaser
or their respective affiliates or representatives shall not be deemed a
violation of the provisions of Section 7.1 and shall not be subject to the prior
written approval of Seller (including, without limitation, any such disclosure
made pursuant to the provisions of current, quarterly and annual report forms
promulgated under applicable securities laws and in connection with any
securities offerings by the REITs).

(d) The provisions of this Section 7.1 shall survive any termination of this
Agreement or the Closing for a period of three (3) years.

 

-25-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 7.2. Seller Confidentiality and Trading. Seller acknowledges that,
through the course of the transaction contemplated hereunder, Seller may be
provided by the Purchaser or its affiliates with information regarding Purchaser
and Purchaser’s affiliates including, without limitation, the REITs
(collectively, the “Purchaser Parties”). Except as required by law, Seller and
its representatives shall hold in strictest confidence all data and information
obtained with respect to Purchaser Parties or their respective businesses,
whether obtained before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
except such information (i) that is or may be required to be disclosed by Seller
under any law, rule, regulation, court order or other judicial process and
(ii) that is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result
of disclosure in breach of this Agreement, (iii) becomes lawfully available to
Seller on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Purchaser Party or
one of its agents or representatives, which is not bound by a confidentiality
agreement with or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of
confidentiality to any Purchaser Party or any other party with respect to any
portion of the information or (iv) was lawfully known to Seller on a
non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to Seller by a Purchaser Party or
one of its agents or representatives; provided, however, that Seller may
disclose such information to the employees and attorneys of Seller and its
direct and indirect owners to the extent reasonably necessary in connection
herewith, provided that Seller instructs such persons to treat such information
confidentially. Seller acknowledges that it is aware, and that Seller has
advised each recipient it has provided such information, that the securities
laws of the United States prohibit any person who has material non-public
information to purchase or sell securities of an issuer without the prior public
dissemination of such information. Seller further agrees that it will not use
such information to make an investment, or communicate such information to any
other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such
person is likely to purchase or sell such securities, in any manner inconsistent
with the securities laws of the United States. The provisions of this
Section 7.2 shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the Closing for a
period of three (3) years.

Section 7.3. Record Access and Retention. Seller shall provide to Purchaser (at
Purchaser’s sole cost and expense) copies of, or shall provide Purchaser
reasonable access to, such factual information as may be reasonably requested by
Purchaser, and in the possession or control of Seller, or its property manager
or accountants, to enable Purchaser’s auditor to conduct an audit, in accordance
with Rule 3-14 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X, or as may
be reasonably required by Purchaser or any affiliate of Purchaser to make any
required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other
governmental authority, of the balance sheet and income statements of the
Property for the year to date of the year in which Closing occurs plus the two
immediately preceding calendar years. Seller’s obligation to maintain its
records for use under this Section 7.3 shall be an ongoing condition to Closing
for Purchaser’s benefit until Closing. Seller shall maintain its records for use
under this Section 7.3 for a period of not less than two years after the Closing
Date. The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing.

Section 7.4. Related Agreements. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that,
simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser are
entering into the

 

-26-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

contemplated by each of the Related Agreements to be consummated in tandem. Any
termination by Seller or Purchaser under any of the Related Agreements (other
than a termination in connection with a casualty or condemnation pursuant to the
terms of such Related Agreement, which shall apply solely to the Related
Agreement for the affected property) will be deemed to be a termination by such
party of this Agreement. Any default by Seller or Purchaser under any of the
Related Agreements will be deemed to be a default by such party under this
Agreement.

Section 7.5. Assignment. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be
granted or denied in Seller’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Purchaser may assign this Agreement to a wholly owned subsidiary or name a
wholly owned nominee to take title to the Property without Seller’s consent.
However, Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller of any such assignment. No
assignment, whether with or without the consent of Seller, shall operate to
release Purchaser from or alter Purchaser’s primary liability to perform its
obligations under this Agreement.

Section 7.6. Notices. Any notice pursuant to this Agreement shall be given in
writing by (i) personal delivery, (ii) reputable overnight delivery service with

of such transmission was received prior to 8:00 p.m. Eastern time and an

the provisions of this Agreement or of the documents to be executed and
delivered at Closing.

Section 7.15. No Recordation. This Agreement or a notice thereof or a lis
pendens may not be recorded by Purchaser without the prior written consent of
Seller, which consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole discretion.
Notwithstanding any term or provision herein to the contrary, if Purchaser
records this Agreement or a notice thereof or a lis pendens without the consent
of Seller such action shall be a breach and default hereunder by Purchaser
allowing Seller to immediately terminate this Agreement and retain the Deposit

prepare and file) any and all returns, declarations, reports, elections, claims
for refund or information returns or other statements or forms relating to,
filed or required to be filed with any Tax authority, including any schedule or
attachment thereto or any amendment thereof (each, a “Tax Return”) required to
be filed by the Company for all tax periods of the Company that end on or before
the Closing Date, and shall pay or cause to be paid all Taxes shown due
thereon. Seller shall provide Purchaser with copies of each such Tax Return at

Purchaser to review and comment on each such Tax Return. Purchaser shall cause
the Company to timely file any Tax Returns with a filing due date that is after

Tax Period (determined in accordance with Section 7.20(c) below).

(c) In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the
Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), (i) the amount of any Taxes based on or
measured by income or receipts of the Company for the portion of such Straddle
Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined based on an interim
closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date and

receipts of the Company for such Straddle Period that relates to the portion of
such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be the amount
of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the
numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the
Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle
Period.

(d) Except to the extent required by law, Purchaser shall not amend, and shall
not permit the Company to amend, any Tax Return filed by, or election with
respect to, the Company for any tax period ending on or prior to Closing without
the prior written consent of Seller if such amendment could have the effect of
increasing (i) the amount of tax payable by Seller with respect to such period
or (ii) the amount of any indemnity payment due from Seller pursuant to
Section 7.20(b) above.

(e) Purchaser and Seller covenant and agree to cooperate with each other
regarding tax matters as follows:

(i) Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably
requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns
pursuant to this Section 7.20 and any audit, litigation 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 audit, litigation or other proceeding and making
employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional
information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Purchaser and
Seller (or an affiliate of Seller) agree (A) to retain all books and records
with respect to tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable
period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of
limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or Seller, any extensions
thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention
agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (B) to give the other
party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding
any such books and records and, if any party so requests, the other party, shall
allow such party to take possession of such books and records.

(ii) Purchaser and Seller further agree, upon request, to use their reasonable
efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental
authority or any other person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or
eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(iii) Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing within ten (10) days after
receipt by Purchaser or the Company of any determination of liability for Taxes
from an official

 

-31-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

inquiry, examination, audit, or administrative or judicial proceeding (“Tax
Audit Determination”) regarding any Tax Return related to a period that ends on
or prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall have the right to exercise control,
on behalf of the Company for any such Tax Return, and at its own expense, at any
time over the handling, disposition or settlement of any issue raised in any
such Tax Audit Determination. Purchaser and the Company shall cooperate with
Seller, as reasonably requested by such representative, in connection with any
such Tax Audit Determination. Purchaser shall have the right (but not the duty)
to participate in the defense of such Tax Audit Determination and to employ
counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by Seller. If
Purchaser elects to participate in the defense of any Tax Audit Determination,
then Purchaser shall be entitled to, without in any way limiting or affecting
Seller right to control the defense of such Tax Audit Determination,
(i) participate fully in the conduct of such Tax Audit Determination, including
participating in all conferences and attending all meetings with the relevant
authorities, (ii) consult with Seller, at its own expense, regarding any such
Tax Audit Determination, and Seller shall consider in good faith any suggestions
made by Purchaser, and (iii) receive copies of all documents (or portions
thereof) relating to such Tax Audit Determination.

(iv) Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within ten (10) days after receipt
by Seller of any Tax Audit Determination regarding any Tax Return for the
Straddle Period or any period thereafter. Purchaser, on behalf of the Company,
shall have the right to exercise control over the handling, disposition or
settlement of all Tax Audit Determinations regarding the Straddle Period;
provided that Purchaser may not settle any Tax Audit Determination or extend an
applicable statute of limitations in connection with a Tax Audit Determination
without the prior written consent of the Purchaser if any such settlement or
extension could have the effect of increasing (i) the amount of tax payable by
Seller with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or (ii) the amount of any
indemnity payment due from Seller pursuant to Section 7.20(b) above. Seller
shall have the right (but not the duty) to participate in the defense of such
Tax Audit Determination and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from
the counsel employed by Purchaser. If Seller elects to participate in the
defense of any Tax Audit Determination, then Seller shall be entitled to,
without in any way limiting or affecting Purchaser right to control the defense
of such Tax Audit Determination (subject to the express limitations set forth in
this Section 7.20(e)(iv), (i) participate fully in the conduct of such Tax Audit
Determination, including participating in all conferences and attending all
meetings with the relevant authorities, (ii) consult with Purchaser, at its own
expense, regarding any such Tax Audit Determination, and Purchaser shall
consider in good faith any suggestions made by Seller, and (iii) receive copies
of all documents (or portions thereof) relating to such Tax Audit Determination.

(f) Purchaser and Seller further agree that, upon receipt by Purchaser of any
tax refund, abatement, credit or similar benefit with respect to the Pre-Closing
Tax Period (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the portion of a Straddle
Period ending on the Closing Date), Purchaser will promptly pay to Seller an
amount equal to such tax refund, abatement, credit or similar benefit (or, with
respect to a Straddle Period, Seller’s portion thereof, determined in accordance
with the principles of Section 7.20(c) above).

(g) Except as expressly set forth in Section 7.20(e)(i), this Section 7.20 shall
survive until the second anniversary of the Closing.

a                     (“Assignee”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Assignor owns one hundred percent (100%) of the limited liability
company interests in the Company (such interests, together with all rights,
powers and obligations of Assignor as a member of the Company, the “Interests”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement,
dated as of             , 2014, by and between Assignor,                     and

alia, the Interests. Initially capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein
shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Sale Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein
contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Assignment. Assignor hereby assigns, sets over and transfers to Assignee all
of Assignor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Interests.

2. Assumption. Assignee hereby accepts the foregoing assignment of the Interests
and assumes all of Assignor’s obligations with respect to the Interests arising
under the limited liability company agreement of the Company from and after the
date hereof.

the Company with respect to the Interest will be transferred to Assignee. From
and after the date hereof, the profits or losses of the Company and all other

received by the Company. Nothing in this Assignment will affect the allocation
to Assignor of profits, losses, and other items of income, gain, loss,
deduction, or credit attributable to any period before the date hereof or any
distribution or payments made to Assignor in respect of the Interest before such
date.

4. Withdrawal. Assignor hereby withdraws as a member of the Company, and
Assignee is hereby substituted as the sole member of the Company.

a written agreement signed by the party to be charged therewith.

6. Severability. If any term or provision of this Assignment or the application
thereof to any persons or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of this Assignment or the application of such term
or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held
invalid or unenforceable shall not be affected thereby, and each term and
provision of this Assignment shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent
permitted by law.

shall be an original and all of which counterparts taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Signatures to this Assignment transmitted
