any offices located at any place other than on the Project, (iii) costs relating

of Manager not accounted for in the approved Budget and its supporting payroll

on-site Project Personnel and the operation of the Project, unless approved in
advance in writing by RREM.

    


    2.02.     
General
Operation.  Subject to the
limitations imposed by the Budget from time to time, Manager shall operate the
Project in the same manner as is customary and usual in operation of comparable
facilities, and shall provide such services as are customarily provided by
operators of high quality projects of comparable class and standing consistent
with the Project’s facilities.

    


    In addition to the other obligations
of Manager set forth herein, Manager shall render the following services and
perform the following duties for Owner in connection with the Project in a
commercially diligent and efficient manner:  (a) maintain businesslike
relations with tenants whose service requests shall be received, considered,

    owner, in
compliance with standards established by RREM and approved by Owner, on the
lease form provided by Manager, and on terms based upon criteria approved from
time to time by Owner and based upon Manager’s recommendations.

    


    It is understood and agreed, however,
that Manager shall not, and does not, provide security services to the
Project.  Should RREM choose to do so, RREM may direct that Manager,
on Owner’s behalf, to separately contract with a non-affiliated company (a

Company”) providing alarm systems, patrol and similar services (“Security
Services”).  Manager shall have no duty to supervise or control
performance of Security Services for any Security Company but Manager shall, if
requested by RREM, evaluate and report its findings to RREM, as
directed.  Without limiting the provisions of Section 6.03 of this
Agreement, RREM shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold Manager harmless for,
from and against any loss, liability, cost, expense, damage claim or cause of
action, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, court costs and other
litigation expenses and costs, arising from any personal injury, loss of
property or other matter occurring on or about the Project, relating to the acts
or omissions of a Security Company, any claimed inadequacy of Security Services,
the failure to provide Security Services or any other matter relating to the
security of the Project.  The indemnification obligations of RREM in
this Section 2.02 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
Agreement.

    


    2.03.           Budget.

    


    (a)           Manager
will submit to Owner for Owner’s approval, an initial capital and operating
budget (the “Initial
Budget”) for the first fiscal year (or partial fiscal year as
appropriate) on or before March 31, 2008.  Manager shall submit to
RREM for Owner’s approval no later than sixty (60) days prior to the beginning
of each successive Fiscal Year the Budget for the ensuing Fiscal
Year.  Manager shall provide RREM with such information regarding the
Budget as may be, from time to time, reasonably requested by
RREM.  Upon receipt of the Budget from Manager, RREM shall promptly
deliver the Budget to Owner.  Owner shall approve or object to the
Budget.  Manager may proceed under the terms of the proposed Budget
for items that are not objected to and may take any action with respect to items
not approved if the expenditure is (i) less than Two Thousand Five Hundred
Dollars ($2,500) or (ii) is, in the Manager’s reasonable judgment, required to
avoid personal injury, significant property damage, a default under any loan
encumbering the Project, a violation of applicable law or the suspension of a
service (collectively, “Emergency
Expenditure”).  In the event that the items that are objected
to are operational expenditures (but not including real estate taxes, insurance,
utilities and similar items that cannot be controlled by Manager), as opposed to
capital expenditures, Manager shall be entitled to oversee and supervise the
operation of the Project using the prior year’s budget until the approval is
obtained.  If the Budget is not approved, upon the request of RREM,
Manager will prepare and deliver to RREM, a revised Budget for the Fiscal
Year.

     

    (b)           Together
with submission of the annual Budget, Manager shall submit to RREM for approval
by Owner an operating plan for the general operation of the Project for the
subsequent Fiscal Year, including a proposed list of improvements to the
Project, general insurance plan, marketing plan and plan for the general
operation and maintenance of the Project (the “Operating
Plan”).  Upon the request of RREM, Manager will prepare and
deliver to RREM, a revised Operating Plan for the Fiscal Year.

    (c)           In
the event there shall be a substantial discrepancy between the actual results of
operations for any month and the estimated results of operations for such month
as set forth in the Budget or the Operating Plan, Manager shall, upon request,
furnish to RREM within Fifteen (15) days after the expiration of such month a
written explanation as to why the discrepancy occurred.  If
substantial variations have occurred or are anticipated by Manager during the
course of any Fiscal Year, Manager, upon RREM’s reasonable request, shall
prepare and submit to RREM a revised Budget and/or Operating Plan covering the
remainder of the Fiscal Year.

    


             2.04.             Project
Personnel.  Manager shall use
reasonable and prudent efforts to investigate, hire, train, instruct, pay,
promote, discharge and supervise the work of all its employees involved with the
management of the Project.  Since it is acknowledged that the Project
may need a fulltime resident manager on site, it is agreed that one of the
Project Employees (including his/her spouse and dependent children) may live
rent-free in an apartment unit designated by RREM, and receive, in addition,
salary and normal benefits approved in advance and accounted for in the
Budget.  All Project Personnel shall be employees of
Manager.

     

    
                           
RREM shall immediately reimburse Manager each pay period for the total aggregate
compensation, including salary, and other related costs and fringe benefits,
payable with respect to the Project Personnel who shall be accounted for in the
approved Budget and supporting payroll schedule, any temporary employees working
at the Project, the Project’s proportionate share of all costs relating to
roving maintenance and similar personnel, but only to the extent reflected in
the approved Budget.  The term “fringe benefits” as used herein shall
mean and include the employer’s contribution of F.I.C.A., unemployment
compensation and other employment taxes, worker’s compensation, group life and
accident and health insurance premiums, 401K contributions, performance bonuses,
and disability and other similar benefits paid or payable by the Manager to its
employees in other apartment projects operated by Manager, but only to the
extent reflected in the approved Budget.

    

     

    2.05.           Contracts
and Supplies.  Except as
otherwise provided herein, Manager, as sub-agent for Owner and at Owner’s
expense, and without compensation directly or indirectly to Manager, except as
expressly set forth herein, shall enter into written agreements with (i)
concessionaires, licensees, or other intended users of the facilities of the
Project, (ii) contractors furnishing services to the Project, including, but not
limited to, utilities, janitorial, trash collection, cleaning, vermin
extermination, furnace and air conditioning maintenance, security protection,
pest control, landscape and irrigation system maintenance, repair, maintenance,
and replacement of elements of the buildings, recreational facilities or common
areas (to the extent such work cannot reasonably and less expensively be done by
Project  Personnel), and any other services that are reasonably
necessary to the maintenance and operation of first-class projects comparable to
the Project (herein called “Customary
Services”).  Manager shall place purchase orders as and when
necessary to assure timely and adequate availability of such equipment, tools,
appliances, materials and supplies as are necessary to properly maintain and
operate the Project.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all contracts
(and renewals thereof) entered into by Manager, unless Manager has obtained
RREM’s prior written consent, must be:  (a) cancelable without penalty
upon not more than thirty (30) days notice: and (b) have terms of one (1) year
or less, and (c) require the provider of such Customary Services pursuant to
such contract to comply with RREM’s insurance requirements.  Manager
shall obtain competitive bids annually for any such contracts and, in connection
therewith, shall investigate the competency and history of all potential
bidders; develop and submit detailed specifications for work to be performed;
solicit and obtain such bids; conduct an analysis of bid results; and shall
submit all bids to RREM for review

    and
approval, together with Manager’s recommendation with respect
thereto.  Manager shall continually inspect the Project and ensure
that all contract specifications are being properly administered, and conduct
periodic complete walk-throughs of the Project with specific Customary Service
providers as often as reasonably necessary.  Manager shall use
reasonable efforts to purchase all goods, supplies or services at the lowest
cost reasonably available from reputable sources in the metropolitan area where
the Project is located.  In making any contract or purchase, Manager
shall use reasonable efforts to obtain favorable discounts for Owner and all
discounts, rebates or commissions under any contract or purchase order made
hereunder shall inure to the benefit of Owner.  Manager shall make
payments under any such contract or purchase order to enable Owner to take

Repairs and Maintenance.

shall make or install, or cause to be made and installed at Owner’s expense and
in the name of Owner, all necessary or desirable repairs, interior and exterior
cleaning, painting and decorating, plumbing, alterations, replacements,
improvements and other normal maintenance and repair work on and to the Project
as are customarily made by Manager in the operation of first-class apartment
projects; provided that no unbudgeted expenditure may be made for such purposes
without the prior approval of RREM, except emergency repairs involving manifest
danger to life or property, or when necessary to avoid criminal or civil
liability, or for the safety of the tenants, or to avoid the suspension of any
necessary service to the Project, may be made by the Manager without prior
approval and irrespective of the cost limitations imposed by Section 2.03(a),
provided that in each such instance, Manager shall, before causing any such
emergency repair to be made, use reasonable efforts under the circumstances to
notify RREM of that repair.  All such work shall be performed by
Project Personnel unless it is not reasonable for them to do so due to the
expertise, time constraints, or other considerations involved, and/or because
having them do so is more expensive.

    


    (b)           In
accordance with the terms of the approved Budget or upon written demand and/or
approval (except in the case of emergency) of RREM, from time to time during the
term hereof Manager shall, at Owner’s expense, make all required capital
improvements, replacements or repairs to the Project.  Subject to
obtaining RREM’s prior written approval in regard to sums necessary to cover
costs of unbudgeted capital improvements, Manager shall first use any excess
funds in the Depository Account that are not committed to operating expenses,
and then shall use funds furnished by Owner for that purpose.  The
award of a contract for a capital improvement exceeding $5,000 in cost shall be
approved by RREM.

    


    2.07.             Licenses
and Permits.  Manager shall apply for, obtain, and maintain, in
the name and at the expense of Owner, all licenses and permits (including

management and operation of the Project.  RREM shall cause Owner to
execute and deliver any and all applications and other documents and to
otherwise cooperate to the fullest extent with Manager in applying for,
obtaining and maintaining such licenses and permits.

    


    2.08.             Compliance
with Laws.  Manager shall use
all reasonable efforts to cause all such acts and things to be done in and about
the Project as are required by this Agreement or by any laws,

    regulations
and requirements of any federal, state or municipal government having
jurisdiction respecting the use or manner of use of the Project or the
maintenance or operation thereof.

    


    2.09.             Legal
Proceedings.  Manager shall
institute, in its own name or in the name of Owner and/or RREM (as applicable),
all legal actions or proceedings that Manager deems reasonable in order to
collect rent, or other income from the Project pursuant to the Leases and to
evict and dispossess tenants or other persons in possession, or to otherwise
cancel, terminate, or enforce any lease, license, concession or Customary
Service contract for the breach thereof by the tenant, licensee, concessionaire,
or contractor.  All decisions with respect to settlement or case
management shall be made only after consultation with and approval by
RREM.  In each such instance where expenses related to such action are
expected to exceed $2,000.00 Manager shall, before taking or causing to be taken
any such action, use reasonable efforts under the circumstances to notify RREM
of the need for this action, and obtain RREM’s approval.  Manager
shall promptly notify RREM of any order, rule, or determination or notice of
violation of any law or order of any governmental authority.

    


    2.10.             Debts of
Owner.  In the
performance of its duties as Manager, Manager shall act solely on behalf of
Owner in Manager's capacity as an independent contractor.  All debts
and liabilities to third persons incurred by Manager pursuant to this Agreement
and in the course of its operation and management of the Project shall be the
debts and liabilities of Owner only, and Manager shall not be liable for (and is
hereby indemnified with respect to) any such debts or liabilities, except to the
extent Manager has exceeded its authority hereunder.  Manager shall
have no responsibility to make payments on any indebtedness incurred directly by
Owner whether or not secured by the Project or any portion
thereof.  Without limiting the provisions of Section 6.03 of this
Agreement, RREM shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold Manager harmless for,
from and against any loss, liability, cost, expense, damage claim or cause of
action, including, but not limited to attorneys’ fees, court costs and other
litigation expenses and costs, arising from any debt, liability or payment for
which Manager is being exculpated pursuant to this Section 2.10.  The
indemnification obligation of RREM in this Section 2.10 shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

    respect
to any claims that are insured under such policy.  All insurance
relating to the Project shall be only for the benefit of the party securing said

release each other from all rights of recovery under or through subrogation or
otherwise for any and all losses and damages to the extent of such insurance

penalties, recourses, remedies, responsibilities, rights, suits and undertakings
of every nature and kind whatsoever, including, but not limited to, attorneys'
fees, court costs and other litigation expenses and costs, from the presence of
Hazardous Substances on, under or about the Project, except to the extent that
the Hazardous Substances are present as a result of the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Manager or the breach of Manager’s obligations pursuant to
the first sentence of this Section 8.06. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the indemnification provided by this paragraph specifically shall
cover costs incurred in connection with any investigation of site conditions or
any remediation, removal or restoration work required by any federal, state or
local governmental agency because of the presence of Hazardous Substances in,
on, under or about the Project, except to the extent that the Hazardous
Substances are present as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of Manager or the breach of Manager’s obligations pursuant to the first sentence
of this Section 8.06.  For purposes of this section, “Hazardous
Substances” shall mean (i) all substances defined as hazardous materials,
hazardous wastes, hazardous substances, or extremely hazardous waste under any
federal, state, or local law or regulation, and (ii) mold, mold contamination,
mold spores, bacterial contaminants and/or any and all substances or materials

Section 8.06 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
Agreement.

    


    (b)           Without
limiting the indemnifications set forth in Section 8.06(a) above, RREM and
Manager further agree that RREM is solely responsible for any and all conditions
at the Project that could give rise to bodily injury or property damage claims
stemming from the presence of mold, mold contamination, mold spores, bacterial
contaminants and/or any and all substances or materials related
thereto.  Manager shall endeavor to inform RREM of the availability
and cost of insurance to cover any and all conditions at the Project that could
give rise to bodily injury or property damage claims stemming from the presence
of mold, mold contamination, mold spores,

    bacterial
contaminants and/or any and all substances or materials related thereto, but the
decision of whether or not to purchase insurance relating to such risk is solely
that of the RREM, and Manager shall have no obligation or liability whatsoever
therefor.  RREM’s or Owner’s failure to purchase or consider insurance
alternatives for such risk shall not in any manner alter Manager’s obligations
or liabilities hereunder.
