DOCSBHM\2172820\7
NAI-1502721402v4



cause the Title Commitment to be updated for purposes of issuance of a TLTA Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance in the amount of the Purchase Price (the “Owner’s Policy”) insuring fee simple title to the Land and Improvements subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.
2.2    Survey. Purchaser acknowledges that it has received that certain survey dated May 15, 2017, prepared by Jones Carter, Russell B. Tarasiewicz, RPLS No. 6575 (the “Existing Survey”). Purchaser may update the Existing Survey or obtain a new survey (in either case, the “Updated Survey”), at Purchaser’s sole expense, and, shall deliver a copy of the Updated Survey to Seller and the Title Company on or before the Title Exam Deadline. The Updated Survey shall be certified in favor of Seller, the Title Company and any other parties as determined by Purchaser.
2.3    Title Objections; Cure of Title Objections.
(a)    Purchaser shall have until 5:00 p.m. Central Time on May 17, 2017 (the “Title Exam Deadline”) to review the Title Commitment, related exception documents and the Updated Survey and to notify Seller, in writing, of such objections as Purchaser may have to any matters contained therein.
(b)    If Purchaser notifies Seller, in writing, of its objection to any title or survey matters prior to the Title Exam Deadline, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such objections (except for the Mandatory Cure Items as defined below). Within three (3) Business Days after receipt of Purchaser’s notice of objections, Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing whether Seller elects to cure such objections (and Seller’s failure to send such a notice to Purchaser within such three (3) Business Day period shall be deemed an election not to cure such objections). If Seller elects to cure, and provided that Purchaser shall not have terminated this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof, Seller shall have until the Closing Date to remove, satisfy or cure the same and for this purpose, Seller shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing if additional time is required, but in no event shall the adjournment exceed thirty (30) days after the Scheduled Closing Date. At Seller’s cost and expense, Seller may bond around any such objections to the Title Company’s and Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction in order to cause the Title Company to remove such matter, or may otherwise cause Title Company to endorse over and affirmatively insure over any such objection in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and its lender, and in either event, such objection shall be deemed cured. If Seller elects (or is deemed to elect) not to cure any objections specified in Purchaser’s notice, or if Seller is unable to effect a cure prior to the Closing (or any date to which the Closing has been adjourned), Purchaser shall have the following options: (i) to waive the uncured objections and accept a conveyance of the Property, subject to the Permitted Exceptions, by proceeding to Closing and thereby be deemed to have approved as Permitted Exceptions specifically any matter objected to by Purchaser which Seller is unwilling or unable to cure, and without reduction of the Purchase Price; or (ii) to terminate this Agreement by sending written notice thereof to Seller before the end of the Inspection Period if Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure or, subject to Seller’s rights to extend Closing as provided in this Section 2.3(b), before Closing if Seller is unable to effect a cure as agreed by Seller, and upon delivery of such notice of termination, this Agreement shall terminate and the Earnest Money, including the Non-Refundable Portion and the Refundable Portion (less the Independent Consideration), shall be returned to Purchaser, and thereafter neither party hereto

7
DOCSBHM\2172820\7
NAI-1502721402v4



shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except to the extent that any right, obligation or liability set forth herein expressly survives termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser fails to timely provide notice of its election to terminate under clause (ii) of this Section 2.3(b), Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed under clause (i) of this Section 2.3(b).
(c)    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, whether or not Purchaser objects pursuant to this Section 2.3, Seller shall be obligated at or prior to Closing to (i) pay any and all mortgages, deeds of trust and deeds to secure debt by, through or under Seller and (ii) up to $250,000 of all mechanics’ liens and monetary judgments recorded against the Property to the extent created by, through or under Seller (the “Mandatory Cure Items”).
2.4    Permitted Exceptions to Title. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Property shall be conveyed subject to the following matters, which shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions and Purchaser shall have no right to object to Permitted Exceptions:
(a)    the rights of tenants, as tenants only, under the Leases and any new Leases entered into between the Effective Date and Closing to the extent permitted hereunder;
(b)    the lien of all ad valorem real estate taxes and assessments not yet due and payable as of the Closing Date, subject to adjustment as herein provided;
(c)    local, state and federal laws, ordinances or governmental regulations, including, but not limited to, building and zoning laws, ordinances and regulations, now or hereafter in effect relating to the Property;
(d)    items appearing in the Title Commitment and/or on the Existing Survey or Updated Survey and, in either case, either (i) not timely objected to by Purchaser or (ii) timely objected to by Purchaser, with a subsequent waiver or deemed waiver to such objection by Purchaser, all in accordance with Sections 2.3 and 2.5 hereof; and
(e)    the Restrictive Covenant.
2.5    Pre-Closing “Gap” Title/Survey Defects. Following the Title Exam Deadline, Purchaser may, within two Business Days of receipt of any updates to the Title Commitment or the Updated Survey notify Seller in writing of any additional objections to any update to the Title Commitment or the Updated Survey that were not on the latest Title Commitment issued by the Title Company prior to the expiration of the Title Exam Deadline, the Existing Survey or the latest Updated Survey issued by the surveyor prior to the expiration of the Title Exam Deadline. With respect to any objections to title or survey matters set forth in such notice, Seller shall have the same option to cure (subject to the Mandatory Cure Items) and Purchaser shall have the same option to accept title subject to such matters or to terminate this Agreement and receive a return of the Earnest Money, including the Non-Refundable Portion and the Refundable Portion (less the Independent Consideration), as those which apply to any notice of objections made by Purchaser before the expiration of the Title Exam Deadline. If Seller elects to cure any such matters, the date for Closing may be extended, if necessary, by a reasonable period of time to effect such a cure as and to the extent provided in Section 2.3(b).

3.1    Right of Inspection.
(a)    During the period ending on May 24, 2017 (the “Inspection Period”), Purchaser shall have the right to make such inspections, tests and investigations, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, of the Property and to examine at the Property, certain documents related to the Property in Seller’s possession or control as more specifically identified on Schedule 3.1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Purchaser acknowledges that some of such documents may have been prepared by third parties, including the property manager.
(b)    Purchaser understands and agrees that any on-site inspections of the Property shall be conducted upon at least 24 hours’ prior written notice to Seller (provided that, as to in-unit inspections, the notice period shall be consistent with the notice period Seller must give tenants under the Leases and under applicable state and local law) and shall occur at reasonable times agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser. With respect to any entry upon the Property, Seller shall be entitled to have a representative of Seller accompany Purchaser or the party entering the Property on behalf of Purchaser. Purchaser may not contact any tenants of the Property without first obtaining Seller’s prior written consent. Such physical inspection shall not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Property by Seller or its tenants nor shall Purchaser’s inspection damage the Property in any material respect. Such physical inspection shall not be destructive or invasive in any respect (unless Purchaser obtains Seller’s prior written consent), and in any event shall be conducted in accordance with standards customarily employed in the industry and in compliance with all governmental laws, rules and regulations. Following each entry by Purchaser with respect to inspections or tests on the Property, Purchaser shall restore the Property to the condition it was in prior to any such inspections or tests. Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser in its due diligence but shall not be obligated to incur any liability or expense in connection therewith. Purchaser shall keep the Property free of any liens or encumbrances on account of Purchaser’s inspections and investigations.
(c)    Purchaser agrees that prior to entering the Property to conduct any inspection, Purchaser, its engineers, architects, employees, contractors, consultants, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Purchaser Parties”) shall obtain, maintain and deliver evidence satisfactory to Seller and its property manager thereof, at no cost or expense to Seller, (1) commercial general liability insurance from an insurer reasonably acceptable to Seller in the amount of $3,000,000.00 with combined single limit for personal injury or property damage per occurrence of at least $1,000,000, (2) commercial automobile insurance coverage in an amount of not less than $1,000,000.00 per occurrence which shall cover liability arising in connection with any automobile at the Property (including owned, hired and non-owned automobiles), and (3) workers’ compensation insurance as required by statute in the state where the Property is located and employer’s liability insurance in an amount of not less than $1,000,000.00 per accident, such policies to name Seller, its property manager, Mill Creek Residential Trust LLC (“Mill Creek”), CNL Growth Properties, Inc.

9
DOCSBHM\2172820\7
NAI-1502721402v4



with any such tests and investigations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Jones & Carter, Inc., shall not be required to obtain or maintain insurance required by clauses (2) or (3) of this subsection (c). Such insurance coverage shall (i) be issued by an insurance company licensed to do business in the state where the Property is located having a rating of at least “A X” by A.M. Best Company, (ii) be primary and any insurance maintained by Seller shall be excess and noncontributory, (iii) include contractual liability coverage with respect to Purchaser’s indemnity obligations set forth in this Agreement (it being understood, however, that the availability of such insurance shall not serve to limit or define the scope of Purchaser’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement in any manner whatsoever), and (iv) not contain any exclusions for work performed at or on residential properties, or for “insured versus insured” claims as respects any potential claim by Seller against Purchaser. The insurance certificate required herein shall also provide that the coverage may not be cancelled, non-renewed or reduced without at least 30 days’ prior written notice to Seller.
(d)    PURCHASER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY AGAINST AND HOLD SELLER, MILL CREEK, CNL AND THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECT AND INDIRECT AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, SHAREHOLDERS, MEMBERS, PARTNERS, MANAGERS, OWNERS, OFFICERS, AND DIRECTORS (“SELLER AFFILIATES”) AND THEIR AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES, EMPLOYEES, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS (COLLECTIVELY WITH THE SELLER AFFILIATES, THE “SELLER PARTIES”) HARMLESS FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, CAUSES OF ACTION, LOSSES, LIABILITIES, LIENS, ENCUMBRANCES, COSTS, EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES) DAMAGES OR INJURIES (COLLECTIVELY, “LOSSES”) ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM: (1) THE INSPECTION OF THE PROPERTY BY PURCHASER OR PURCHASER PARTIES, INCLUDING, ALL COSTS OF ANY INSPECTION OR PHYSICAL TESTING OF THE PROPERTY, (2) ANY INJURIES TO PERSONS (INCLUDING DEATH) OR PROPERTY (REAL OR PERSONAL) ARISING OUT OF ANY INSPECTION OR PHYSICAL TESTING OF THE PROPERTY BY PURCHASER OR THE PURCHASER PARTIES, OR (3) ANY MECHANICS’, WORKERS’ OR OTHER LIENS ON THE PROPERTY, BY REASONS OF OR RELATING TO THE WORK OR ACTIVITIES CONDUCTED ON THE PROPERTY BY PURCHASER OR PURCHASER PARTIES EVEN IF SUCH LOSSES ARE A RESULT OF SELLER’S OR SELLER PARTIES’ OWN NEGLIGENCE; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, PURCHASER SHALL NOT BE OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY ANY PARTY UNDER THIS PARAGRAPH FOR LOSSES RESULTING FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SELLER OR THE OTHER SELLER PARTIES. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE OBLIGATION TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS SELLER AND SELLER PARTIES SHALL SURVIVE CLOSING OR ANY TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
3.2    Right of Termination. Seller agrees that if Purchaser determines (such determination to be made in Purchaser’s sole discretion) that the Property is not suitable for its purposes for any reason or no reason, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Seller prior to 5:00 p.m. Central Time on the last day of the Inspection Period. If Purchaser gives such notice of termination during the Inspection Period, this Agreement shall terminate and, unless Purchaser terminates for a Refundable Termination Event (as defined below), the Refundable Portion of the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser and the Non-Refundable

10
DOCSBHM\2172820\7
NAI-1502721402v4



Portion and Independent Consideration shall be remitted to Seller. If Purchaser gives notice of termination during the Inspection Period for a Refundable Termination Event, then this Agreement shall terminate and the entire Earnest Money, including the Non-Refundable Portion and the Refundable Portion (less the Independent Consideration) shall be returned to Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to give Seller a notice of termination prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall no longer have the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 3.2 and (subject to automatic termination under Section 1.5 or any other express rights of termination on the part of Purchaser hereunder) shall be bound to proceed to Closing and consummate the transaction contemplated hereby pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Time is of the essence with respect to the provisions of this Section 3.2.
As used herein, the term “Refundable Termination Event” means Purchaser’s election to terminate this Agreement under Section 3.2 for any of the following reasons: (i) Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure any title or survey objections pursuant to Section 2.3(b) hereof, (ii) Purchaser determines, in its complete and sole discretion, that (A) the nature or condition of the Property has materially and adversely changed such that the Existing Survey is no longer accurate, complete or correct, or (B) the environmental condition of the Property has materially and adversely changed such that the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Spring- Struebner Tract dated June 24, 2013, performed by MECX, LP and provided by Seller to Purchaser on or before the Effective Date, is no longer accurate, complete or correct. Purchaser and Seller further acknowledge and agree that the Earnest Money, including the Non-Refundable Portion and Refundable Portion, may be refunded to Purchaser pursuant to such other provisions specifically set forth herein, including, without limitation (1) Section 2.3(b) with respect to Seller’s failure to effect a cure of any title or survey matter prior to Closing, (2) Section 2.5 with respect to any new title or survey matter, (3) Section 4.8 with respect to failure of a condition to Closing, (4) Section 6.2 with respect to Seller default, and (5) Section 7.2 with respect to a Major Loss (as such term is defined below).
3.3    Termination of Contracts. On or before the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall have the right to notify Seller in writing (a) if it would like Seller to terminate any of the Contracts at Closing, and (b) provided such Contracts may be terminated without penalty and without notice (any Contract that complies with both (a) and (b) of this Section 3.3, a “Terminable Contract”), Seller shall terminate such Terminable Contracts at Closing. If any Contracts that Purchaser would like Seller to terminate require that notice be provided to the vendor in order to terminate same, then Purchaser shall assume such Contract for such notice period from and after Closing.
ARTICLE IV

(vi)    All collected rent and other collected income (and any applicable state or local tax on rent) under Leases in effect on the Closing Date shall be prorated. Seller shall be charged with any rent and other income collected by Seller before Closing but applicable to any period of time from and after the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall be entitled to a credit against the Purchase Price for such amount.

(e)    The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall survive Closing; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing except for Section 4.4(b)(ii) and Section 4.4(c) which shall survive without limitation, all adjustments and prorations shall be reprorated as soon as practicable after the Closing Date and shall be deemed final upon the expiration of 120 days after the Closing Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, in the event specific performance is not available to Purchaser because Seller has conveyed the Property to a third party, then, in addition to Purchaser’s remedy set forth in Section 6.2(a) above, Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and Seller shall be obligated to pay damages in the amount of $500,000.00. Purchaser expressly waives its rights to seek other damages in the event of Seller’s default hereunder. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected the remedy set forth in 6.2(a) above if Purchaser fails to file suit for specific performance against Seller on or before 90 days following the date upon which Closing was to have occurred (provided Purchaser shall have no obligation to file suit if the Property

24
DOCSBHM\2172820\7
NAI-1502721402v4



has been conveyed to a third party). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein will limit Purchaser’s remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in the event of a breach by Seller of any obligation that expressly survives termination hereunder.
6.3    Notice and Opportunity to Cure. Seller and Purchaser each agree to provide the other party with written notice of any default by the other party under this Agreement, and a period of five Business Days following the other party’s receipt of such notice within which to cure such default; provided, however, that no such notice and opportunity to cure shall be applicable with respect to a party’s failure to timely close, nor shall any such notice and cure period extend beyond the Closing Date.
ARTICLE VII    
RISK OF LOSS
7.1    Minor Damage. If there is any condemnation, loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof which is not a Major Loss, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Seller shall perform any necessary repairs or, at Seller’s option, assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds (including claims and proceeds for restoration) Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question. If Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs to at least the same quality and condition prior to such condemnation, loss or damage promptly and the Closing Date shall be extended a reasonable time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days after the Scheduled Closing Date, in order to allow for the completion of such repairs. If Seller elects to assign a casualty claim and proceeds to Purchaser, Purchaser shall receive a credit equal to the lesser of the cost to repair such casualty or the deductible under the insurance policy with respect to the casualty, if any, less any amounts previously spent by Seller in connection with the collection of insurance proceeds and the repair or restoration of the Property on account of the casualty. Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser.
7.2    Major Damage. If there is any condemnation, loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof which is a Major Loss, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in which event the Earnest Money, including the Non-Refundable Portion and the Refundable Portion, shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further obligation hereunder other than with respect to those obligations that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) days after Seller sends Purchaser written notice of the occurrence of a Major Loss, then Seller and Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with Closing, in which event Seller shall, at Seller’s option, either (a) perform any necessary repairs, or (b) assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s right, title and interest to any claims and proceeds (including claims and proceeds for restoration) Seller may have with respect to any casualty insurance policies or condemnation awards relating to the premises in question. If Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs to at least the same quality and condition prior to such condemnation, loss or damage promptly and the Closing Date shall be extended a reasonable time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days after the Scheduled Closing Date, in order to allow for the completion of such

25
DOCSBHM\2172820\7
NAI-1502721402v4



repairs. If Seller elects to assign a casualty claim and proceeds to Purchaser, Purchaser shall receive a credit equal to the deductible under the insurance policy with respect to the casualty, if any, less any amounts previously spent by Seller in connection with the collection of insurance proceeds and the repair or restoration of the Property on account of the casualty. Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser.
7.3    Definition of Major Loss. For purposes of Sections 7.1 and 7.2, a “Major Loss” refers to the following: (a) with respect to one or more casualties, damage by fire or other casualty to the Property or any portion thereof, the cost of which to repair or restore to a condition substantially identical to the condition existing before such casualty would exceed $250,000 in the aggregate as determined by adjusters mutually agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser, and (b) with respect to condemnation or sale in lieu of condemnation, any condemnation or sale in lieu of condemnation of any portion of the Property (i) that causes a reduction in the number of units on the Land, (ii) that materially interferes with the present use and operation of any of the buildings on the Land or (iii) that results in the elimination of any means of legal ingress and/or egress from the Property.
ARTICLE VIII    
COMMISSIONS
8.1    Brokerage Commissions. In the event the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is consummated, but not otherwise, Seller agrees to pay to Berkadia Real Estate Advisors LLC (the “Broker”) at Closing a brokerage commission pursuant to a separate written agreement between Seller and Broker. Said commission shall in no event be earned, due or payable unless and until the transaction contemplated hereby is closed and fully consummated strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If such transaction is not closed and fully consummated for any reason, including, without limitation, failure of title or default by Seller or Purchaser or termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof, then such commission will be deemed not to have been earned and shall not be due or payable. Except as set forth above with respect to Broker, neither Seller nor Purchaser has authorized any broker or finder to act on any party’s behalf in connection with the sale and purchase hereunder and neither Seller nor Purchaser has dealt with any broker or finder purporting to act on behalf of any other party. Each party agrees that should any claim be made for brokerage commissions or finder’s fees by any broker or finder other than the Broker by, through or on account of any acts of said party or its representatives, said party will indemnify and hold the other party free and harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, cost, damage and expense in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Section 8.1 shall survive the Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE IX

PURCHASER REPRESENTS TO SELLER THAT PURCHASER HAS CONDUCTED, OR WILL CONDUCT PRIOR TO CLOSING, SUCH INVESTIGATIONS OF THE PROPERTY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE PHYSICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS THEREOF, AS PURCHASER DEEMS NECESSARY 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 SAME AND NOT UPON ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OR ON BEHALF OF SELLER OR SELLER PARTIES WITH RESPECT THERETO, OTHER THAN SUCH REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF SELLER AS ARE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN THE CLOSING DOCUMENTS.

(d)    PURCHASER HEREBY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO SELLER THAT: (I) PURCHASER IS REPRESENTED BY LEGAL COUNSEL IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT; AND (II) PURCHASER IS PURCHASING THE PROPERTY FOR BUSINESS, COMMERCIAL, INVESTMENT OR OTHER SIMILAR PURPOSE AND NOT FOR USE AS PURCHASER’S RESIDENCE.

HAVE BEEN REVEALED BY ITS INVESTIGATION. THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS SECTION WILL EXPRESSLY SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CLOSING, AS THE CASE MAY BE, AND WILL NOT MERGE WITH THE DEED.
(b)    As used in this Agreement, “Hazardous Substances” shall mean and include, but shall not be limited to, any petroleum product and all hazardous or toxic substances, wastes or substances, any substances which because of their quantitated concentration, chemical, or active, flammable, explosive, infectious or other characteristics, constitute or may reasonably be expected to constitute or contribute to a danger or hazard to public health, safety or welfare or to the environment, including, without limitation, any hazardous or toxic waste or substances which are included under or regulated by any environmental laws, regulations and ordinances, whether federal, state or local and whether now existing or hereafter enacted or promulgated, as such laws may be amended from time to time, including, without limitation the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (commonly known as “CERCLA”), as amended, the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (commonly known as “SARA”), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (commonly known as “RCRA”), the Toxic Substance Control Act, the Hazardous Substances Transportation Act, the Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Clean Air Act, or any other federal, state or local legislation or ordinances applicable to the Property (collectively, “Hazardous Substances Laws”).

Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that the disclaimers and other agreements set forth herein are an integral part of this Agreement and that the compensation to be paid to Seller for the Property has been decreased to take into account that the Property is being sold subject to the provisions of this Article IX. Seller and Purchaser agree that the provisions of this Article IX shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE X    
TITLE COMPANY
10.1    Payment of Purchase Price. The Title Company, following authorization and instruction by the parties at Closing, shall (a) pay to Seller by federal wire transfer of immediately

The Title Company will hold the Earnest Money in escrow in an interest-bearing account of the type generally used by the Title Company for the holding of escrow funds until the earlier of the (a) Closing or (b) termination of this Agreement in accordance with any right hereunder. If Purchaser has not terminated this Agreement by the end of the Inspection Period, the Earnest Money shall be non-refundable to Purchaser except as otherwise set forth herein, but shall be credited against the Purchase Price at the Closing. If this Agreement is terminated prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, the Earnest Money will be returned by the Title Company to Purchaser. If the Closing occurs, the Earnest Money will be released to Seller, and Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of the Earnest Money. If the Closing does not occur by the Scheduled Closing Date, as it may be extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and Purchaser has not terminated this Agreement pursuant to an express right of termination established herein or otherwise provided written notice to the Title Company that the disposition of the Earnest Money is in dispute, the Earnest Money shall be released to Seller. In all other instances, the Title Company shall not release the Earnest Money to either party until the Title Company has been requested by Seller or Purchaser to release the Earnest Money and has given the other party three Business Days to dispute, or consent to, the release of the Earnest Money. Purchaser represents that its tax identification number, for purposes of reporting the interest earnings, is 63-0884457. Seller represents that its tax identification number, for purposes of reporting the interest earnings, is 46-3985545.
10.3    Liability.
(a)    THE TITLE COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO ANY PARTY FOR ANY ACT OR OMISSION, EXCEPT FOR BAD FAITH, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, AND THE PARTIES AGREE TO INDEMNIFY THE TITLE COMPANY AND HOLD THE TITLE COMPANY HARMLESS FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES ARISING IN CONNECTION HEREWITH. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE TITLE COMPANY IS ACTING SOLELY AS STAKEHOLDER FOR THEIR MUTUAL CONVENIENCE. IF THE TITLE COMPANY RECEIVES WRITTEN NOTICE OF A DISPUTE BETWEEN THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE EARNEST MONEY, THE TITLE COMPANY SHALL NOT BE BOUND TO RELEASE AND DELIVER THE EARNEST MONEY TO EITHER PARTY BUT MAY EITHER (I) CONTINUE TO HOLD THE EARNEST MONEY UNTIL OTHERWISE DIRECTED IN A WRITING SIGNED BY ALL PARTIES HERETO OR (II) DEPOSIT THE EARNEST MONEY WITH THE CLERK OF ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION. UPON SUCH DEPOSIT, THE TITLE COMPANY WILL BE RELEASED FROM ALL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES HEREUNDER. THE TITLE COMPANY SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO CONSULT WITH SEPARATE COUNSEL OF ITS OWN CHOOSING (IF IT DEEMS SUCH CONSULTATION ADVISABLE) AND SHALL

31
DOCSBHM\2172820\7
NAI-1502721402v4



NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTION TAKEN, SUFFERED OR OMITTED BY IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ADVICE OF SUCH COUNSEL.
(b)    The Title Company shall not be required to defend any legal proceeding which may be instituted against it with respect to the Earnest Money, the Property or the subject matter of this Agreement unless the Title Company is requested to do so by Purchaser or Seller and is indemnified to its satisfaction against the cost and expense of such defense. The Title Company shall not be required to institute legal proceedings of any kind and shall have no responsibility for the genuineness or validity of any document or other item deposited with it or the collectability of any check delivered in connection with this Agreement. The Title Company shall be fully protected in acting in accordance with any written instructions given to it hereunder and believed by it to have been signed by the proper parties.
10.4    Designation of Certifying Person. In order to assure compliance with the requirements of Section 6045 of the Code, and any related reporting requirements of the Code, the parties hereto agree as follows:

(b)    Seller and Purchaser each hereby agree:
(i)    to provide to the Title Company all information and certifications regarding such party as reasonably requested by the Title Company or otherwise required to be provided by a party to the transaction described herein under Section 6045 of the Code; and
(ii)    to provide to the Title Company such party’s taxpayer identification number and a statement in such form as may be requested by the Title Company, signed under penalties of perjury, stating that the taxpayer identification number supplied by such party to the Title Company is correct.
10.5    Survival. The provisions of this Article X shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE XI    
MISCELLANEOUS

DOCSBHM\2172820\7
NAI-1502721402v4



evaluations of the Property, whether obtained before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and shall not disclose the same to third parties; provided, however, that it is understood and agreed that Purchaser may disclose such data and information (i) to the Purchaser, Parties and Purchaser’s accountants, investors, lenders and potential lenders, and attorneys, provided that such persons shall treat such data and information confidentially and in all events the Purchaser shall be responsible for such parties’ obligation to maintain confidentiality pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) to any applicable governmental or quasi-governmental authority as may be required by applicable law, or (iii) in connection with any legal proceedings where such data and information is required to be disclosed, but only to the extent required, by court order, or pursuant to applicable law, regulation or self-regulatory organization rules, provided that in the case of (i) or (iii), Purchaser gives Seller prior written notice so that Seller may have a reasonable opportunity to obtain a protective order or other form of protection against disclosure. If 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 Purchaser Parties or representatives of this Section 11.1, Seller shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Purchaser or Purchaser Parties 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. The provisions of this Section 11.1 shall survive Closing.
11.2    Public Disclosure. Any release to the public by either party of information with respect to the sale contemplated herein or any matters set forth in this Agreement will be made only in the form approved by the other party and no release shall be made prior to the Closing other than any required securities filings that any direct or indirect member, partner or shareholder of Seller may be, from time to time, required to make under applicable law.
11.3    Assignment of Interest in Reports and Studies. If for any reason Purchaser does not consummate the Closing, then Purchaser shall, upon Seller’s request and full reimbursement for the cost thereof from Seller to Purchaser, and to the extent assignable, assign and transfer to Seller all of its right, title and interest in and to any and all studies, reports, surveys and other information, data and/or documents relating to the Property or any part thereof prepared by or at the request of Purchaser or Purchaser Parties, and shall deliver to Seller copies of all of the foregoing.
11.4    Former Tenant Lease Files. In addition, all files at the Property that relate to tenants who have vacated their units at the Property (the “Former Tenant Lease Files”), together with any and all rights, defenses, causes of action and claims relating thereto, shall remain the property of Seller. Former Tenant Lease Files may be removed from the Property by Seller on or before Closing; provided, however, Seller shall provide copies of such Former Tenant Lease Files to Purchaser prior to removing from the Property.
11.5    TIME OF THE ESSENCE. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE WITH RESPECT TO ALL TIME PERIODS AND DATES FOR PERFORMANCE SET FORTH HEREIN.

DOCSBHM\2172820\7
NAI-1502721402v4



every agreement and obligation on the part of Seller to be performed pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, except those which are herein specifically stated to survive Closing.
11.7    Assignment. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement to anyone other than a Permitted Assignee without first obtaining Seller’s written approval which may be given or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 11.7, Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement to a Permitted Assignee without the prior written consent of Seller. In the event that Purchaser desires to assign its rights under this Agreement to a Permitted Assignee, Purchaser shall send written notice to Seller at least five Business Days prior to the effective date of such assignment stating the name of the Permitted Assignee and providing the signature block of the Permitted Assignee. Such assignment shall not become effective until such Permitted Assignee executes an instrument reasonably satisfactory to Seller in form and substance whereby the Permitted Assignee expressly assumes each of the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement, including specifically, without limitation, all obligations concerning the Earnest Money. Upon an assignment of this Agreement to a Permitted Assignee: (a) Purchaser shall not be released or otherwise relieved from any obligations or subsequently accruing liability hereunder, and (b) as used in this Agreement, Purchaser shall be deemed to include such Permitted Assignee. For purposes of this Section 11.7, the term “Permitted Assignee” shall mean an entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Purchaser or its affiliates, or an entity in which the general partner or managing member is controlled by the Purchaser or its affiliates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall not have the right to assign this Agreement to any assignee which, in the reasonable judgment of Seller, will cause the transaction contemplated hereby or any party thereto to violate the requirements of ERISA. In order to enable Seller to make such determination, Purchaser shall cause to be delivered to Seller such information as is reasonably requested by Seller with respect to a proposed assignee and the constituent persons or entities of any proposed assignee, including specifically, without limitation, any pension or profit sharing plans related thereto.
11.8    Notices.

Facsimile and/or electronic signature pages shall be effective for purposes of this Section 11.15. Handwritten signatures to this Agreement transmitted by telecopy or electronic transmission (for example, through use of a Portable Document Format or “PDF” file) shall be valid and effective to bind the party so signing. Each party agrees to promptly deliver to the other party an executed original of this Agreement with its actual signature, but a failure to do so shall not affect the enforceability of this Agreement, it being expressly agreed that each party to this Agreement shall be bound by its own telecopied or electronically transmitted handwritten signature and shall accept the telecopied or electronically transmitted handwritten signature of the other party to this Agreement.
11.16    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws, such provision shall be fully severable; this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement; and, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement.

11.17    Section 1031 Exchange. Either party may structure the purchase and sale of the Property as a like kind exchange under Code Section 1031 at such party’s sole cost and expense. The parties shall reasonably cooperate with one another, provided neither party shall incur any additional costs, expenses, liabilities or time delays in connection with the other party’s exchange. Each party shall indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless therefrom and Purchaser shall not be required to take title to or contract for purchase of any other property. If Seller uses a qualified intermediary to effectuate the exchange, any assignment of the rights or obligations of Seller hereunder shall not relieve, release or absolve Seller of its obligations to Purchaser.
11.18    Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE SUBSTANTIVE FEDERAL LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE LAWS OF TEXAS. SELLER AND PURCHASER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN DALLAS, TEXAS, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH STATE OR FEDERAL COURT. PURCHASER AND SELLER AGREE THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 11.18 SHALL SURVIVE THE CLOSING OF THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.
11.19    No Third Party Beneficiary. The provisions of this Agreement and of the documents to be executed and delivered at Closing are and will be for the benefit of Seller and Purchaser only and are not for the benefit of any third party, and accordingly, no third party shall have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or of the documents to be executed and delivered at Closing.
11.20    No Financing Contingency. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement are not in any manner contingent or conditioned upon Purchaser obtaining financing in order to purchase the Property. It is expressly understood that if Purchaser is unable to close the transaction contemplated by this Agreement as a result of Purchaser’s failure to obtain financing, Purchaser shall be in default under this Agreement and Seller shall have the remedy provided in Section 6.1 above. In no event shall Seller be obligated to comply with any requirements of Purchaser’s lender for any financing or otherwise incur any cost, expense or liability in connection with Purchaser’s financing of the Property.
11.21    Legal Representation and Construction. Each party hereto has been represented by legal counsel in connection with the negotiation of the transactions herein contemplated and the drafting and negotiation of this Agreement. Each party hereto and its counsel has had an opportunity to review and suggest revisions to the language of this Agreement.
