F.      It
is the Buyer's intent to include 107 LIHTC units as part of the 210
total units in order to meet Frederick County, Maryland's
Moderately Priced Dwelling Units ("MPDUs") requirement
for the Ballenger Run project. In order to accomplish this, the
Seller must obtain the approval from Frederick County (the
"County") to amend the DRRA to allow Low Income Housing Tax Credits
("LIHTC")
units to satisfy this requirement. Further, Buyer's project
requires the County's participation in development incentive
programs for affordable housing in order to accomplish this. The
DRRA amendment and a commitment, in form and substance reasonably
acceptable to Buyer, of the cooperation of the County such the
development incentives must be accomplished by the Seller prior to
the end of the Feasibility Study Period. In the event the Seller
has not obtained the approval by the County to amend the DRRA as
provided for in in this Paragraph 4.F., by the end of the
Feasibility Study Period, Seller and Buyer shall mutually determine
whether to extend the Feasibility Study Period. Failure by the
Seller to have amended the DRRA prior to completion of the
Feasibility Study Period shall not be deemed a default by Seller of
this Contract, but Buyer shall be permitted to terminate the
Contract pursuant to Paragraph 4.A. if the parties cannot agree to
extend the Feasibility Study Period, and the Deposit shall be
promptly returned to the Buyer. Notwithstanding the aforegoing,
once Seller has amended the DRRA as provided in this Paragraph
4.F., it shall be a default by Buyer under this Contract to not
construct the MPDUs as provided herein; this provision of the
Contract shall survive Closing and shall not merge with the deed of
conveyance. In order to satisfy this requirement of Buyer, Buyer
shall be required to record the LIHTC covenants required under
§l -6A-5.2(B) and (C) of the Frederick County Code prior to
Closing, which shall run with and bind the Property.

 

G.          During
the Feasibility Study Period, Buyer shall provide Seller with
initial architectural drawings for the intended multi-family
project. Seller shall have ten (10) business days to review and
approve these drawings, such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Failure by the Seller to respond
within this period shall be deemed approval. Any further revisions
to said drawings prior to Closing other than non-material red-line
changes which do not change the layout or unit mix of the buildings
or materially alter the road circulation or amenities on the
Property as approved by the Seller shall require Seller's further
review and approval in accordance with this Paragraph 4.G., such
approval again shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed.

 

5.           
Title.

 

A.            .Buyer
shall order, at Buyer's expense, from a reputable title insurance
company of Buyer's choice (the "Title Company")
a report on title (the
"Title
Report") for the Property and
a survey (the "Survey") of the Property, which Survey shall reflect
the actual dimensions of, and the gross area within, the Property,
the location of any easements, rights-of- way, setback lines,
encroachments, or overlaps thereon or thereover, and the outside
boundary lines of any improvements. Not later than fifteen days
prior to the expiration of the Feasibility Study Period, Buyer
shall give notice to Seller of any objections to or defects of
title disclosed by the Title Report or Survey. If such notice is
not given, Buyer shall be deemed to accept title to the Property in
its condition existing as of the Effective Date. Within ten ( 10)
days after receiving notification of any objectionable title items
from Buyer, Seller shall give notice to Buyer as to whether Seller
shall cure or cause the cure of such objections to title. In the
event that Seller elects to remove or cause the removal of such
noted exceptions, Seller shall exercise diligent, good faith
efforts to do so. If such notice is not given or in the event that
Seller declines to cure or cause the cure of all items or if Seller
(despite Seller's diligent, good faith efforts) is unable within
the permitted time period to
cure all items Seller has elected to cure, then Buyer shall have
the option, to be exercised by written notice to Seller within five
(5) days after receipt of Seller's notice of Seller's unwillingness
or inability to cure the objectionable title items or the date
Seller was to have provided notice to Buyer as provided for herein,
to (i) accept title as shown by the Title Report and proceed to
Closing hereunder, OR (ii) terminate this Contract by giving notice
of Buyer's intention to terminate, in which event the Deposit shall
be returned to Buyer, and thereafter neither party shall have any
further liability hereunder except for those obligations which
specifically survive such termination. If Buyer fails to make an
election within such five (5)
day period, then Buyer shall be deemed to have elected item
(ii).

the best of Seller's knowledge, there are no notices, suits or
judgments pending or threatened relating to violations of any
governmental regulations, ordinances or requirements affecting or
which may affect the Property. In the event Seller receives such a
notice of violation, Seller shall immediately take all actions

relating to the Property which would impose any obligations upon
Buyer to make any contributions of money or land or to install or
maintain any improvements, or which would interfere with Buyer's
ability to use, develop or improve the Property as herein
contemplated (including any agreements or understandings to annex
the Property or any portion thereof to any homeowners' association

periods prior to Closing have been paid in full or adjustment
therefor shall be made at Closing on the settlement
sheet.

 

L.

(iii)
If, after
written notice to Seller and the expiration of any applicable cure
period, the conditions set forth in Section 8A(iv) hereof are not
met at the time of Closing, then Buyer shall have the option, to be
exercised in its sole discretion either to (i) waive the
requirement for satisfaction of the unsatisfied conditions and
proceed to Closing without reduction in the Purchase Price, (ii)
elect to extend Closing by written notice to the Seller for an
additional period of time to allow Seller time to comply with
Section 8A(iv) requirements, not to exceed one ( 1) year, or (iii)
declare this Contract terminated in its entirety, in which event.
the Deposit shall be released to Seller, and thereafter neither
party shall have any further liability hereunder, except for those
obligations which specifically survive such
termination.

 

C.           The
obligation of Seller to proceed with Closing is contingent upon all
of the following conditions being satisfied as of the date of
Closing:

 

(i)           The
representations and warranties of Buyer made in this Contract shall
be true and correct as of the date of Closing with the same force
and effect as though such representations and warranties had been
made on and as of such date.

 

(ii)            Buyer
shall have performed in all material respects all covenants and
obligations and complied in all material respects with all
conditions required by this Contract to be performed or completed
with by it on or before the date of Closing, and Buyer shall have
executed and delivered to Seller a certificate, dated as of the
date of Closing, to the foregoing effect.

 

9.            Development
and Permitting Approvals.

 

A.           Site
Plan. Buyer shall submit upon the conclusion of the
Feasibility Study Period (and shall thereafter use reasonable
commercial efforts, proceeding diligently and in good faith to
obtain in as expeditious a manner as reasonably possible) its
application for Site Plan and subdivision plat approval for all
necessary municipal, state and federal approvals for the
construction of the multifamily apartment project on the Property
(collectively, "Site Plan Approval").
Buyer, proceeding diligently shall have one (1) year from the
expiration of the Feasibility Study Period to obtain Site Plan
Approval (the "Site Plan Approval
Period"). During the Site Plan Approval Period and prior to
any official submission of a Site Plan to the County, Buyer shall
provide Seller with an initial Site Plan for the intended
multi-family project. Seller shall have ten (10) business days to
review and approve the Site Plan, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Failure by the
Seller to respond within this period shall be deemed approval. Any
further revisions to said Site Plan prior to Closing other than
non­ material red-line changes which do not change the layout
or unit mix of the buildings or materially alter the road
circulation or amenities on the Property as approved by the Seller
shall require Seller's further review and approval in accordance
with this Paragraph 9.A., such approval again not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

B. Building
Permit. . Promptly upon Site
Plan Approval, Buyer shall pursue, at its sole cost and expense,
and take all actions required to be taken to obtain building
permits ("Building Permit
Approval"), to construct the
Buyer's proposed improvements to the Property. Not later than
thirty (30) days following the expiration of the Site Plan Approval
Period, Buyer shall obtain the Building Permits (the
"Building Permit Approval
Period").

	

 

 

- 10 -

 

 

C.           Extensions
to Site Plan Approval Period and/or Building Permit Approval
Period. If the
governing authorities having jurisdiction thereunder have not
granted all required approvals for the Buyer to construct its
multifamily project within the Site Plan Approval Period or the
Building Permit Approval Period, respectively, despite the
diligent, good faith, and commercially reasonable efforts of the
Buyer to obtain the required Site Plan Approval or the Building
Permit Approval, the Buyer may, upon written notice delivered to
the Seller before the expiration of the Site Plan Approval Period
or Building Permit Approval Period, extend the Site Plan Approval
Period or Building Permit Approval Period for up to a combined
extension period not to exceed ninety (90) days (the "90 Day Extension
Period"). The 90 Day Extension Period can be used to extend
either the Site Plan Approval Period or the Building Permit
Approval Period but in no event shall it exceed 90 days in total.
The Buyer can use the 90 Day Extension Period in 30 day increments,
and it can be divided between the Site Plan Approval Period and the
Building Permit Approval Period (i.e., by way of example, it can be
used for a 30 day extension to the Site Plan Approval Period and
for a 60 day extension to the Building Permit Approval Period) so
long as the combined extensions do not exceed 90 days in
total.

 

D.            Cooperation
in Development of the Project. Buyer covenants to use
reasonable commercial efforts and due diligence and good faith in
pursuit of the Site Plan Approval, preparation and recordation of
the record plat subdividing the Property from the balance of the
Seller's property and obtaining the Building Permit Approval
(collectively, the "Approvals") during
the Site Plan Approval Period and agrees to keep Seller currently
apprised (but not less often than monthly) of its efforts in
respect of the Approvals. Buyer and Seller shall in all events
promptly advise the other party of any on-going communications with
governmental authorities, and each of Buyer and Seller agree to
provide the other party at least five (5) days prior notice of any
meetings with any neighborhood groups, civic associations,
governmental authorities or other "stakeholders" and afford the
other party the opportunity to attend all such meetings. Buyer
shall advise Seller of the matters discussed at any meetings with
neighborhood groups, civic associations, governmental authorities
or other "stakeholders" or other public hearings at which the
Property is discussed which Seller does not attend.

 

10. 

Time of Closing.

 

A.            Closing
(each a "Closing"), subject to
satisfaction or written waiver of all conditions precedent
contained herein, shall occur no later than twenty (20) days
following the completion of the Building Permit Approval Period;
provided however that in no event shall Closing occur later than

B.            Closing

will not need to attend Closing. Buyer shall give Seller at least
five (5) business days' prior notice of the time and place of
Closing.

 

C.            Any
general real estate taxes and rents and usual water and sewer
charges shall be pro-rated for the portion of the Property conveyed
at such Closing as of the date of Closing. Applicable special
assessments for public improvements that are substantially
completed prior to Closing
and any "roll-back" taxes applicable to the portion of the Property
conveyed at such Closing shall be paid by Seller. Transfer and
recordation taxes and any other recording charges shall be divided
equally between the parties, provided that the Buyer will pay any
recording tax attributable solely to any financing in excess of the
Purchase Price. Seller shall pay for the preparation of the deed
and the preparation of and the recording fees for the release of
any monetary encumbrances against the portion of the Property
conveyed at such Closing. Each party shall pay its own attorneys'
fees. Seller is aware that the Escrow Agent will be required to

withholding tax as prescribed by the Tax­ Property Article of
the Maryland Annotated Code unless it can provide the required
Certification as set forth in (E)(c), below.
