2

Agreement, (ii) Manager shall remain liable for, and primarily obligated with respect to, the performance of all of its duties, responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement notwithstanding any such delegation or sub-contracting and shall be responsible and liable for any breach of its authority, duties, responsibilities, and obligations by any Person (and/or its and/or their respective officers and employees) to which it delegated or sub-contracted all or any part of its authority, duties, responsibilities, and obligations hereunder, and (iii) any Person providing Services pursuant to this Agreement (other than Manager) shall not be entitled to receive any separate compensation from Owner (or any of Owner’s Affiliates).

Manager shall be an independent contractor and shall not be an agent, employee, partner or joint venturer of Owner, and neither Manager nor Owner shall represent to any other person that Manager’s relationship to Owner hereunder is other than that of an independent contractor. If Manager owns any interest in, or provides other services to Owner, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to modify, amend or diminish the agreements contained herein and Manager’s responsibilities and duties hereunder shall be considered entirely separate from any other relationship with Owner.

Owner acknowledges that Manager and its Affiliates engage in various management, leasing and other real estate activities not related to the Properties and may enter into similar activities in the future. Owner acknowledges that the management of a comparable property by Manager or any of its Affiliates shall not be deemed a per se conflict of interest hereunder, provided that Manager complies with its obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the Standards of Conduct. Manager acknowledges and agrees that it has a fiduciary duty not to divert any existing or potential tenant of any Property to any other building or property in which Manager or any Affiliate has any interest, as a property manager, owner or otherwise, without Owner’s consent; provided, however, that the foregoing restrictions shall not be deemed or interpreted to prohibit the leasing personnel of Manager or any Affiliate from responding to tenants or prospective tenants of any Property or their agents who initiate contact with such leasing personnel for the purpose of leasing space in any other property or building, including, but not limited to, any other property or building for which Manager or any Affiliate of either of them serves as leasing agent.

3

Manager to perform the Services.

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, during the Term, Manager agrees, for and in consideration of the Management Fee set forth above, to manage and operate the Properties on behalf of Owner and for the account of Owner, and to perform all Services and all of its duties and obligations hereunder, in each case in accordance with the Standards of Conduct and the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget (subject to Permitted Variances). Manager agrees to maintain systems and personnel sufficient to enable it to carry out its duties, obligations and functions under this Agreement.    Manager shall institute and supervise all operational activities for the Properties, including, but not limited to, cleaning, security, waste removal and maintenance, landscaping, window washing, maintenance and operation of wireless services and equipment, maintenance and operation of central plant and other HVAC equipment, and all necessary maintenance of and repairs to the Properties. Manager shall be responsible for implementing all aspects of access to and security for the Properties as determined by Owner from time to time. If the Central Account does not contain sufficient funds to pay all costs and expenses of Owner, Manager shall promptly deliver written notice of such deficiency to Owner (together with sufficient detail as to the amounts required and the reasons therefor), but Manager shall have no obligation to expend its own funds therefor.

4.2 Specific Duties of Manager. Without limiting the generality of Section 4.1 above, Manager shall have the following duties and shall perform the following Services:

(a) Legal Counsel. Except as expressly set forth herein, Manager shall not retain independent legal counsel on behalf of Owner or any Property Owner without obtaining Owner’s prior written approval, in each instance, unless such independent legal counsel is otherwise approved as part of the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget. In addition, Manager shall not expend any legal fees, costs or expenses in excess of the amount approved in the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget (subject to Permitted Variances) without obtaining Owner’s prior written approval, in each instance.

(b) Collection of Revenues and Lease Enforcement.

(i) Manager shall use diligent efforts to demand, collect and receive (A) all rents, utility charges, common area charges, insurance charges, and real estate and personal property tax and assessment charges, (B) all other pass-through or bill-back charges, sums, costs or expenses of any nature whatsoever payable by Tenants under the terms of any or all of the Leases and any other agreements relating to all or any portion of any Property, including, without limitation, any method of calculating a resident’s utility bill based on factors such as occupancy rate or square footage that may be implemented, and (C) all other revenues, issues and profits accruing from any Property (including, without limitation, any and all license, service or other agreements affecting such Property). All monies so collected shall be deposited into the applicable Property Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(iii) Security deposits (whether they are cash, letters of credit, securities or any other form) shall be maintained by Manager in accordance with all Legal Requirements and the applicable terms of the Lease to which such security pertains. A separate account, or one or more separate accounts, shall be opened by Manager (hereinafter the “Security Deposit Account”), in accordance with the terms hereof. The Security Deposit Account shall be maintained in accordance with Legal Requirements and, shall be with an FDIC-insured banking institution reasonably acceptable to Owner. The Security Deposit Account shall be used only for maintaining Tenant security deposits. The depository shall be informed that the funds are held in trust for Owner. Manager may not under any circumstances write a check on the Security Deposit Account payable to or in favor of Manager or any Affiliate of Manager. Manager shall maintain detailed records of all security deposits relating to each Property. To the extent permitted under Legal Requirements, any interest credited to the Security Deposit Account from time to time shall be paid to Owner.

Such access and use of the security deposits shall not relieve Manager of its duties and obligations to comply with all Legal Requirements regarding security deposits and the applicable terms of the Lease to which security pertains. Manager shall not collect any rents, charges, or revenues more than one (1) month in advance of when the same shall be due and payable

9

(iv) Manager shall promptly notify Owner upon learning of any material default, or event of default or event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would or could be reasonably likely to constitute a material default or a material event of default by any other party under any Contract.

10

Manager shall consult with Owner concerning the action to be taken with respect thereto and, at the expense of Owner, take such action as Owner shall direct with respect to such default or event of default.

(v) Each of Manager and Owner shall promptly notify the other upon receiving any written notice of default by Manager, Owner or Property Owner, as the case may be, under any Contract (and shall furnish a copy of the notice received by it with its notice to the other Party) or upon obtaining actual knowledge of any default, or event of default under any Contract.

(g) Certifications. When reasonably requested by Owner, Manager shall provide a certification to Owner in order to enable Owner to certify to a lender, a title insurance company, a prospective purchaser of any Property, and/or any other party which Owner may designate that:

(i) the most recent rent roll prepared by Manager (including a listing of security deposits, if any) is true, correct and complete;

(ii) Manager has not received any notices about and has no actual knowledge of any violations of law at such Property, including, without limitation, violations of any building codes or environmental law (or if Manager has received notice or has such knowledge, specifying the nature and extent of such violations);

13

(iii) Manager has not received any notices about and has no actual knowledge of any condemnation or litigation affecting such Property which is pending or has been threatened in writing (or if Manager has received notice or has such knowledge, specifying the nature and extent of such condemnation or litigation); and

(iv) to the knowledge of Manager, no default by Owner exists under this Agreement or any Lease (or if a default exists, specifying the nature of such default).

(h) Leasing.

(i) Subject to the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget (including any leasing guidelines as set forth therein), Manager is expressly authorized to, and shall use diligent efforts to, facilitate the leasing of all commercial and apartment rental units within each Property, including, without limitation, establishing Tenant screening standards, collecting rent, managing security deposits, negotiating with Tenants and prospective tenants and for Leases and extensions, renewals, modifications, amendments or terminations thereof, enforcing rights under Leases, advertising each Property and maintaining a detailed rent roll. Manager shall maintain a visible management presence and level of service to tenants at each Property (collectively, “Tenants”). Manager may employ the services of third-party real estate brokers unaffiliated with Manager, subject to the terms and conditions of commission agreement(s) signed with said broker(s). Manager may negotiate and administer such commission agreement(s). Manager shall maintain electronic copies of all Leases.

(ii) All Residential Leases shall be entered into on forms previously agreed to by Owner or that are otherwise approved as part of the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget (collectively, the “Standard Lease Forms”); provided, however, that no Residential Lease shall have a term of more than forty-eight (48) months (including any renewal term), unless otherwise approved in writing by Owner or as set forth in the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget. If Owner fails to approve or reject any such Residential Lease within three (3) Business Days after receipt of such request from Manager, Owner shall be deemed to have approved such Residential Lease.

(iii) Manager shall engage and retain legal counsel to perform, on an annual basis (or as required by Legal Requirements or as reasonably requested by Owner in writing from time to time) and at a reasonable cost to Owner, a thorough legal review of all Standard Lease Forms. Manager shall notify Owner if such legal counsel recommends any update or revision to any Standard Lease Form and shall request Owner’s approval of such update or revision (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).    

(iv) Manager shall be available for communications with Owner and shall keep Owner promptly advised of items affecting each Property, including demands, suits or legal proceedings instituted or threatened against Owner, of which Manager has knowledge. Manager shall not take any action that might prejudice Owner in its defense to a claim based on any loss, damage or injury relating to the ownership, operation and maintenance of any Property and related facilities. Manager shall promptly notify Owner

14

of: (1) to the extent of Manager’s knowledge, any material default under any Lease; (2) to the extent of Manager’s knowledge, any bankruptcy filing or threatened bankruptcy filing affecting a Tenant; (3) to the extent of Manager’s knowledge, any condemnation or litigation affecting any Property which is pending or threatened; and (4) to the extent of Manager’s knowledge, any release or threatened release of hazardous substances in or around any Property. In the event of any such condition, default or event of default, Manager shall consult with Owner, and at the expense of Owner, promptly take such actions as Owner shall direct. Manager agrees to log and handle complaints and requests from Tenants and prospective tenants and to notify Owner of any material complaint by a Tenant (which shall include, without limitation, any complaint, communication or state of facts which could give rise to a rental abatement or a right of setoff, termination or other claim, and/or any complaint which would or could reasonably be expected to cause or result in reputational harm to Owner and/or any direct or indirect investor in Owner). Manager shall cause, as fully as practicable, the compliance of Tenants with the terms, covenants and conditions of their Leases and shall keep Tenants informed of, and shall use diligent efforts to cause all Tenants to comply with, all rules, regulations and Legal Requirements affecting the applicable Property.

(v) Without Owner’s prior written consent, Manager shall not permit any person to occupy any space in any Property unless such occupancy is pursuant to a written Lease (in the case of a Residential Lease, on the Standard Lease Form) or pursuant to the Leases in effect as of the Commencement Date. In addition, unless Manager has obtained Owner’s prior written consent, Manager shall not permit any Tenant to take occupancy of any space at any Property unless such Tenant has delivered to Manager or Owner (1) the security deposit, if any, required under the terms of such Tenant’s Lease, (2) a current certificate of insurance in compliance with the terms and provisions of such Tenant’s Lease, and/or (3) payment of any rent required to be paid prior to the Tenant’s taking occupancy of its demised premises.

(vi) Manager shall deliver to each of the Tenants all notices required to be delivered on behalf of landlord pursuant to the terms of the applicable Lease.

(i) Assistance with Acquisition and/or Financing.

(i) As reasonably requested by Owner, Manager may, at its option, exercise commercially reasonable efforts to assist Owner or any of its Affiliates with the acquisition process of any New Property, including, without limitation, reviewing diligence materials to develop an operational plan reasonably consistent with the terms, conditions and information set forth in the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget. If Manager agrees to assist Owner or any of its Affiliates in connection with such acquisition pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.2(i)(i), Owner shall pay to Manager a fee as mutually agreed upon by the Parties (such fee, the “Acquisition Diligence Fee”). In the event that AIR or any of its Affiliates exercises its right of first offer pursuant to the MLA (the “MLA ROFO”) and acquires any New Property pursuant to the terms of the MLA ROFO, then Owner shall not be obligated to pay to Manager the Acquisition Diligence Fee. Within forty-five (45) days following the acquisition of any New Property by Owner or any of its Affiliates, Manager shall prepare and submit to Owner

15

an operating budget and such other information as Owner may reasonably request for the remainder of the then current fiscal year.

(ii) Manager shall administer and service all financing incurred with respect to Owner and/or the Properties, and periodically review, assess, monitor and supervise the compliance and any non-compliance by Owner with all covenants and all other obligations under or with respect to any Loan Documents, if any, except to the extent such terms and provisions relate solely to the actions or inactions of any Person that is not an Affiliate (or a board member or director appointed by an Affiliate) of Manager. Manager shall perform its duties and obligations hereunder in compliance with any Loan Documents and shall cause Owner and the Properties to comply, at all times, with the terms and conditions of any Loan Documents; provided that Manager is expressly authorized to use its commercially reasonable discretion to establish payment plans with respect to any financing in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents and to sell, trade or otherwise transfer any financing subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.2(i)(ii), in no event shall Manager be in default hereunder for (1) the failure of Owner to satisfy any financial covenants imposed pursuant to any Loan Document, (2) any default or breach under any Loan Document if Owner fails to make sufficient funds available to Manager to service the underlying loan and/or satisfy any other deposits within a reasonable period of time after Manager makes written request therefor, (3) any default or breach under any Loan Document caused by any voluntary transfer of equity interests by Owner or any direct or indirect interest in Owner (other than as a result of any transfer by an Affiliate of Manager), or (4) any actions or inactions of any Person that is not Manager or an Affiliate of Manager, or a board member or director appointed by Manager or an Affiliate of Manager or any Person to whom management duties have been delegated by Manager, so long as Manager acts diligently and reasonably under the circumstances and in accordance with the Standards of Conduct to cause the Owner and the applicable Property Owner, as the case may be, to comply with the Loan Documents as soon as practicable. If the terms of any of the Loan Documents are inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, Manager shall cause compliance with the Loan Documents. Manager shall promptly notify Owner upon (A) obtaining actual knowledge of any default, or event of default under any financing (mortgage or mezzanine) applicable to any Property, or (B) receiving any written default notice under any financing applicable to any Property (and furnish a copy of the notice received by it with its notice to Owner). In each instance, Manager shall consult with Owner concerning the action to be taken with respect thereto and, at the expense of Owner (unless the same is Manager’s obligation pursuant to Section 11.1), shall take such action as Owner shall direct.

(j) Taxes and Assessments. Subject to the next succeeding sentence, on Owner’s behalf and at Owner’s expense, Manager shall pay in a timely manner in order to receive all available discounts or reductions of tax liability, before delinquency and prior to the addition thereto of any interest or penalties, all real and personal property taxes and assessments relating to each Property (unless otherwise directed by Owner), and shall make any required filings in conjunction therewith. Manager shall not be obligated to pay any state or local property taxes on Owner’s behalf unless funds are available in the Central Account or Owner has

16

provided a check in the amount of such taxes to Manager; provided that Manager shall promptly notify Owner of any such taxes that are due. Promptly after receipt of any real and personal property tax assessments relating to any Property, Manager shall advise and recommend to Owner whether the amount of any such taxes or assessments should be challenged as inequitable, excessive or improper. In the event that Owner elects to contest any property tax assessment, Manager agrees to manage such contest and/or fully cooperate with Owner and with any person or entity designated by Owner to advise, assist or represent Owner in this regard.

(k) Rules and Regulations. Subject to the approval of Owner, Manager agrees to draft and promulgate reasonable rules and regulations relating to the occupancy, use and operation of each Property (including rules related to signage), and to enforce the same as promulgated, as well as such other reasonable regulations Owner may require from time to time, including, but not limited to, Tenant insurance requirements. Manager shall draft and implement standard operating procedures similar to those in other comparable apartment and retail properties in the cities in which the Properties are located, an organization chart, and emergency, contingency and security plans for each Property.

(l) Other Owner Initiatives. Manager, at Owner’s expense, agrees to respond and comply with, on a timely basis, all other Owner initiatives such as environmental health and safety issues, delivery of an affirmative emergency management plan, completion and filing of applications with applicable utility providers for any available rebates, or other initiatives that are reasonably directed by Owner.

(m) Owner Notification. Manager shall promptly, and in no event later than one (1) Business Day after obtaining knowledge thereof, notify Owner of any of the following:

(i) loss of life;

(ii) life threatening situations;

(iii) legal actions against the Owner or any Property which are pending or threatened in writing;

(iv) fire;

(v) written indoor air quality complaint;

(vi) written notification of significant environmental risk (it being acknowledged by Owner that Manager in discharging these duties does not have special environmental training and qualifications and is not being held to the standard of someone with such special environmental training and qualifications);

(vii) receipt of written notice from any governmental entity relating to the presence or release of any hazardous materials; or

(viii) receipt of any material zoning violations.

17

(n) Casualty and Condemnation. Manager shall promptly, and in no event later than one (1) Business Day from the time Manager obtains actual knowledge of any casualty or condemnation (or threatened condemnation), provide Owner with notice in reasonable detail of such casualty or condemnation (or threatened condemnation) and promptly investigate and consult with, and make recommendations to, Owner with respect thereto. In the event of any damage to or destruction of any Property by fire or other casualty, Manager shall use its best efforts to, within one hundred eighty (180) days of such casualty, restore the affected portion of such Property to substantially the same condition they were in prior to such event, using insurance proceeds received by Manager from the policies of insurance maintained by Manager pursuant to this Agreement which pertain in whole or in part to such Property. If the cost of restoration exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Manager from the policies of insurance maintained by Manager, Owner shall be responsible to contribute any excess amount needed to restore such Property, unless such casualty was caused by a Material Breach of Manager, in which case such excess amount shall be the responsibility of Manager. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) Manager determines, in its commercially reasonable discretion, that Manager is unable to perform its restoration obligations pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.2(n) or (ii) any material casualty or material condemnation occurs, as determined in Manager’s commercially reasonable discretion, either Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with respect to such affected Property upon thirty (30) days’ prior Notice to the non-terminating Party.

4.3 Rent Board Hearing. At Owner’s request, Manager shall represent Owner at Rent Board hearings as may be required.

4.4 Duties of Manager Generally. During the Term and subject to the provisions hereof, Manager shall perform Owner’s obligations with respect to each Property and Manager’s obligations as set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the following, subject to any limitations imposed by the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget, instructions from Owner, the availability of funds provided by Owner, and actions or failures to act by third parties which are beyond the reasonable control of Manager:

(a) ensure compliance with and performance of all of Owner’s obligations:

(i) as landlord under all Leases;

(ii) as a party to, or subject to, any and all present and future easements, restrictions, covenants, conditions, mortgages and agreements affecting each Property, including, without limitation, all Loan Documents (if any) (collectively, the “Basic Documents”);

(c) with the prior written approval of Owner, subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, enforcing all of Owner’s rights and remedies in respect of the foregoing.

Manager shall make available to Owner the full benefit of the judgment, experience and advice of Manager’s senior management. Manager shall perform such other services as may be reasonably requested by Owner which are customary for the management of properties of like size and character as the Properties or as may be required for the efficient and businesslike operation of the Properties.

4.5 Emergency Expenditures. As used herein, the term “Emergency” means, individually or collectively, an event of an imminent present threat: (a) to the safety of any Property and/or of material damage or loss to any Property; (b) to the safety of Tenants or others; (c) to the necessary utility or life safety system services to any Property; or (d) that could lead to exposure to criminal liability on the part of Owner or any other direct or indirect investor in any Property, or any employee or agents of any of the foregoing. In the case of an Emergency, Manager is authorized to make repairs to any Property for items that are not contained in the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget without obtaining Owner’s prior written approval; provided that: (i) reasonable efforts to secure Owner’s prior approval have been made (it being agreed that sending an e-mail message to Owner or attempting to call and, if voice mail is available, leaving a message for the Owner is a reasonable effort); (ii) the repairs are made solely for the purpose of avoiding, preventing or resolving the Emergency; (iii) written notice of the repairs and/or expenditures is thereafter provided to Owner within twenty four (24) hours of commencement; and (iv) thereafter Owner and Manager shall mutually determine in good faith whether any additions, deletions or other changes shall be required to mitigate any adverse impact to the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget from such Emergency and the attendant repairs and expenditures.

Except as otherwise provided for in the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget, Manager agrees to advance all costs to hire, pay salaries of, supervise and discharge, as appropriate, all employees or independent contractors (the “Personnel”) necessary for the provision of the Services, including, without limitation, the salaries, wages and other compensation and fringe benefits of all Personnel involved directly or indirectly in providing any or all of the Services, including, without limitation, all costs and expenses relating to Personnel and other off-site employees of Manager allocable to time spent on the Properties, and all such costs shall be reimbursable by Owner. Manager shall, in the

19

hiring and retention of all Personnel, select qualified, competent and trustworthy Personnel, who shall in all instances be familiar with the operation of assets similar to the Properties. The selection, terms of employment (including rates of compensation) and termination thereof, and the supervision, training and assignment of duties of all Personnel engaged in the operation of the Properties, shall be the duty and responsibility of, and shall be determined solely by, Manager. All on-site personnel at each Property, if any, shall be employees of Manager and/or vendors to Manager (and not employees of Owner).

5.2 Schedule of Employees. To the extent not already included in the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget, Manager shall provide Owner with a schedule of Personnel to be employed “on-site” at all times in the direct management of each Property. This schedule shall include the number of employees and their title and salary. Manager shall cause all Personnel to be covered by Manager’s crime/employee dishonesty insurance in accordance with Section 11.3(d).

ARTICLE 6

COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS

6.1 Compliance. Manager shall abide by, and cause the Properties to be compliant with, in all material respects, all federal, state, municipal, governmental, quasi-governmental and/or Department of Buildings laws, rules, regulations, zoning, requirements, orders, statutes, notices, determinations, and ordinances, including, without limitation, the Ellis Act and any other laws or regulations pertaining to affordable housing or rent control, the Americans With Disabilities Act and all environmental laws, relative to the use, operation, repair and maintenance of the Properties and with the rules, regulation or orders of the local Board of Fire Underwriters or other similar body (the “Legal Requirements”) of any federal, state or municipal authority to the extent applicable from time to time during the Term with respect to the Properties or the performance of Manager’s obligations under this Agreement and with all regulations, contracts, leases, permits, licenses, ordinances, declarations, conditions, restrictions, covenants and easements affecting or related to the Properties or the performance of Manager’s obligations under this Agreement. Manager shall promptly remedy any violation of any such Legal Requirements of which Manager becomes aware, including any Tenant violations, all at Owner’s expense in accordance with the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget (subject to Permitted Variances). If the cost of compliance exceeds the Approved Annual Business Plan and Budget and is not an Emergency, Manager shall not take any action with respect to such violation except to notify Owner promptly and obtain Owner’s approval prior to authorizing the expenditure. When more than such amount is required or if the violation is one for which Owner might be subject to penalty, Manager shall promptly notify Owner. Manager shall immediately with all due diligence eliminate or discontinue such use or condition to the extent any use or condition exists at any Property which violates any Legal Requirements or which void or would void any policy of insurance covering any Property or render any loss incapable of collection thereunder.

6.2 Contests. Manager shall notify Owner of any violation or alleged violation of any of the Legal Requirements immediately after becoming aware of same. Owner shall have the right to contest any such allegation and postpone compliance pending the determination of such contest, if so permitted by law, provided such postponed compliance shall not subject Owner,

20

Manager or any partner, member, shareholder, client or employee of Owner or Manager to criminal liability or subject any Property or any part thereof to being condemned or vacated or have the certificate of occupancy for any Property be suspended or threatened to be suspended by result of such non-compliance or by means of such contest.

6.3 REIT Qualification and Protection.

(a) Manager acknowledges that certain Persons owning a direct or indirect interest in Owner (each, an “Owner Parent REIT”) have elected to be treated as real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) within the meaning of Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Manager shall use best efforts to comply with all reasonable requests of Owner related to compliance with any reporting or action required by law of REITs. Accordingly, Manager agrees, and agrees to cause its Affiliates, to use best efforts to: (a) operate the Properties in a manner such that the Properties generate rental income that qualifies as “rents from real property” under Section 856(d) of the Code and to avoid incurring (x) any tax on prohibited transactions under section 857(b)(6) of the Code and (y) any tax on redetermined rents, redetermined deductions, and excess interest under section 857(b)(7) of the Code (determined as if Owner were a REIT); and (b) provide reporting and projections for purposes of complying with certain REIT requirements, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 856 through 860 of the Code (the “REIT Requirements”).

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, Manager shall avoid having services furnished or rendered to the Tenants of any Property that would cause an Owner Parent REIT to receive “impermissible tenant service income” within the meaning of Section 856(d)(7) of the Code if performed by an Owner Parent REIT itself, unless such services are furnished or rendered by a taxable REIT subsidiary of each Owner Parent REIT that is paid an arm’s-length compensation for furnishing or rendering such services.

Upon request during the Term (which notice may (at Owner’s option) specify the parties to which such records shall be made available), and upon the Expiration Date, all such records, files and accounts shall be forthwith turned over to Owner so as to ensure the orderly continuance of the operation of the Properties.

7.4 Owner’s Right to Conduct Audit. Owner shall, at its sole cost and expense, have the right to conduct an audit of any Property’s operations by using its own internal auditors or by employing independent auditors (an “Audit”). Should Owner’s employees or agents discover either weaknesses in internal control or errors in record keeping, these shall be communicated to Manager in writing. Manager shall promptly correct such discrepancies either upon discovery or after notification by Owner. Manager shall inform Owner in writing of the action taken and to be taken to correct such Audit discrepancies. The accounts and all other records relating to or reflecting the operations of any Property shall be available to Owner and its auditors at Manager’s office, at all reasonable times, for examination, audit, inspection, transcription and reproduction. Each of Owner and Manager agrees to pay to the other any adjustments in amounts due and owing from such party within fifteen (15) days following such party’s receipt of the Audit. If any Audit discloses overpayments to Manager in excess of five percent (5%) of all amounts paid by Owner to Manager during the applicable period, Manager shall reimburse Owner for all reasonable costs incurred by Owner in connection with such Audit.

ARTICLE 8

BANK ACCOUNTS

8.4 Accounts Payable. All property related invoices are to be paid by Manager, and shall be at Owner’s expense to the extent such invoices are for expenses incurred pursuant to the performance of obligations under this Agreement and Owner is responsible therefore pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Manager is responsible for obtaining tax identification numbers for its vendors, for tracking payments made to them during each year and for preparing and mailing Form 1099 to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), the appropriate recipients and any other state or local agency required by law. Manager shall ensure that the information filed with the IRS, sent to the appropriate recipients and/or filed with any other state or local agency as required by law is correct and filed in a timely manner.

8.5 Cash Management.

(a) All funds collected by or paid to Manager from the operation of each Property should be promptly, and in no event later than three (3) Business Days thereafter, deposited into separate receipt account (each, a “Property Account”) established for each Property by Manager in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.1 of this Agreement (unless Manager is otherwise directed by Owner with respect to a certain Property). All funds in such separate Property Accounts may be swept into a central account (the “Central Account”) in Owner’s name as maintained by Manager, according to the provisions of Section 8.1 of this Agreement. All checks drawn to the order of Owner should be endorsed by Manager for deposit only and deposited in the applicable Property Account. Any interest or other income earned on the assets of the Central Account shall be re-deposited in the Central Account, and shall for federal and state income tax purposes be deemed to be income of the Owner. To the extent funds are available in the Central Account, Manager shall pay the operating expenses of each Property (including, without limitation, (i) amounts required to be paid pursuant to any mortgage or other financial encumbrance, (ii) all taxes, assessments and other impositions and (iii) sums due to Manager under this Agreement subject to notice to Owner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) and any other payments relative to each Property as required by the terms of this Agreement, unless Manager is otherwise directed by Owner. If at any time funds in the Central Account are not sufficient to pay the expenses incurred in connection with the management and operation of the Properties as expressly authorized by this Agreement, Manager shall submit to Owner a statement of such expenses and the funds that shall be required to satisfy the same, and Owner shall, in its sole discretion, deposit sufficient funds into the Central Account to pay such expenses. Manager shall have no liability to Owner for any amounts in the Central Account which are lost or not covered by insurance if the depository institution at which the Central Account is maintained fails or is otherwise placed in the control of a governmental or quasi-governmental authority and the assets of the Central Account are thereby forfeited in whole or in part, provided such depository institution was selected in accordance with this Section 8.5 or was otherwise previously approved by Owner.

(b) Manager shall not be obligated to make any advance to or for the account of the Owner, or to pay any sum, except out of funds held or provided as set forth in this Agreement, nor shall Manager incur any liability or obligation to Owner, any of its Affiliates or

by any Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of any Proceeding including by engaging counsel reasonably approved by such Indemnified Party and the payment of the reasonable costs and expenses of such counsel. In the event any Indemnified Party determines, in its reasonable judgment, that there is a conflict of interest by reason of having a common counsel, or if any Indemnifying Party fails to defend any Proceeding promptly following receipt of notice of such Proceeding, then the Indemnified Party may engage separate counsel reasonably selected by such Indemnified Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay, as incurred, the reasonable costs and expenses of such counsel. “Indemnified Party” means a Manager Indemnified Party or an Owner Indemnified Party, as applicable. “Indemnifying Party” means Manager or Owner, as applicable, with the indemnification obligation to any Indemnified Party pursuant to the terms of Section 11.1(a) or Section 11.1(b), respectively.

(e) Each Indemnified Party shall look only to the Indemnifying Party and its assets for the collection of any judgment (or other judicial process) requiring the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party in the event any claim is made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement by an Indemnified Party, and no other Person and no other property or assets of any other Person (including (i) any direct or indirect owner of an interest in any Indemnifying Party and (ii) any officers, directors, partners, members, other principals or employees of any Indemnifying Party or any such direct or indirect owner (each, a “Protected Person”)), shall be subject to levy, execution or other enforcement procedures for the satisfaction of any such judgment (or other judicial process). In furtherance of the foregoing, if party hereto (or any related Indemnified Party) shall acquire a lien on any property or assets of any Protected Person, by judgment or otherwise, the other party hereto shall promptly release (or use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be released) such lien.

Any deductible with respect to such insurance shall be primary and the sole and exclusive responsibility of Owner, except to the extent that such liability relates to Manager’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or any act of Manager which is beyond the scope of Manager’s authority under this Agreement. Such liability insurance policies shall be primary and non-contributory with any similar insurance carried by Manager for its account except to the extent that such liability relates to Manager’s indemnification obligations found above. All such policies shall name Manager as additional insured, and shall be endorsed with appropriate waivers of subrogation rights against Manager.

All such policies shall name Owner as an additional insured, with the exception of sub-sections (d), (e) and (f) above, and shall be endorsed with appropriate waivers of subrogation rights against Owner, with the exception of sub-sections (d), (e) and (f) above.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

15.1 Applicable Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall, with respect to each Property, be construed in accordance with the laws of the State in which such Property is located, without regard to any conflicts of law provisions that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT NOW OR HEREAFTER PERMITTED BY LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY CLAIM. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 15.1 SHALL SURVIVE THE CLOSING OR TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

15.2 Arbitration/Dispute Resolution.

(a) Appointed Representative. Each Party shall appoint a representative who shall be responsible for administering the dispute resolution provisions in this Section 15.2 (each, an “Appointed Representative”). Each Appointed Representative shall have the authority to resolve any Disputes (as defined below) on behalf of the Party appointing such representative.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, nonperformance, enforceability, validity, termination or breach of this Agreement, whether arising in contract or tort, between the Parties (each, a “Dispute” and, collectively, “Disputes”) shall first be referred by either Party for amicable negotiations by the Appointed Representatives by providing written notice of such Dispute in the manner provided by Section 12.1 (a “Dispute Notice”). All documents, communications and information disclosed in the course of such negotiations that are not otherwise independently discoverable shall not be offered or received as evidence or used for impeachment or for any other purpose, but shall be considered as to have been disclosed for settlement purposes.

(i) If, for any reason, a Dispute is not resolved in writing by the Appointed Representatives within thirty (30) days of the date of delivery of the Dispute Notice, or if a Party fails to appoint an Appointed Representative within the periods specified herein, such Dispute shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules in effect at the time (the “AAA Rules”), except as modified herein.

(ii) The seat of the arbitration shall be Denver, Colorado.

33

(iii) The arbitration shall be conducted by three (3) arbitrators. The claimant and respondent shall each appoint one (1) arbitrator within thirty (30) days of receipt by respondent of the demand for arbitration. The two (2) arbitrators so appointed shall appoint the third (3rd) and presiding arbitrator (the “Chairperson”) within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the second (2nd) arbitrator. If any Party fails to appoint an arbitrator, or if the two (2) Party-appointed arbitrators fail to appoint the Chairperson within the time periods specified herein, then any such arbitrator shall, upon any Party’s request, be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the AAA Rules. Any arbitrator selected pursuant to this Section 15.2 shall be neutral and impartial and shall not be affiliated with or an interested person of any party to the Dispute; further, any arbitrator appointed by AAA shall be a retired judge or a practicing attorney with no less than fifteen (15) years of experience with litigation and arbitration involving the multifamily real estate industry and an experienced arbitrator.

(iv) By electing to proceed under the AAA Rules, the parties to the Dispute confirm that any dispute, claim or controversy concerning the arbitrability of a Dispute or the jurisdiction of the arbitral tribunal, including whether arbitration has been waived, whether an assignee of this Agreement is bound to arbitrate, or as to the existence, scope, validity interpretation or enforceability of the parties’ agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by the arbitration tribunal.

(v) Each Party shall submit its claims according to the timetable established by the arbitral tribunal. With respect to each claim advanced in the arbitration, including, without limitation, any claim under the indemnification provisions of Article 11 hereof, each side’s submissions shall specify the proposed determination or resolution that it contends the arbitral tribunal should make (and, if applicable, any monetary relief that it contends that the arbitral tribunal should award) (in each case, the “Proposed Award”), which Proposed Award, if applicable, may be expressed as “zero.” As to each claim for monetary relief, each side’s Proposed Award shall also state whether pre- or post-award interest should be awarded, and if so, at what interest rate, and the date from which such interest (if any) should be calculated.

(vi) There shall be only two (2) Proposed Awards (one for each side of the claim), including, without limitation, any claim for monetary relief and/or any claim under the indemnification provisions of Article 11 hereof. Where there are more than two (2) parties to the arbitration, the arbitral tribunal shall have power to make appropriate directions as to which parties shall comprise each “side” for purposes of submitting Proposed Awards, in every instance to ensure a proper alignment of parties with respect to each such claim.

(vii) In rendering the award or otherwise making any determination or resolution (including, without limitation, as to monetary relief and/or relief under the indemnification provisions of Article 11 hereof), the Chairperson shall be limited to choosing, without modification, the Proposed Award of one of the sides, according to its determination of which Proposed Award most comports with its assessment of the case. Insofar as monetary relief is claimed, the arbitral tribunal shall not award any monetary relief of any kind except as set forth in this Section 15.2; provided that this will not limit

34

the power of the arbitral tribunal: (1) to award relief per paragraph (viii) hereof; (2) to apply any statute of limitation that it determines is applicable to any claim; (3) to dismiss or exclude any claim that it determines is: (A) precluded by any part of this Agreement, and/or (B) beyond the scope of this Section 15.2; (4) to receive and determine dispositive motions in accordance with the AAA Rules; and/or (5) to apportion fees/costs per paragraph (ix) hereof.

(viii) In addition to monetary relief, and/or the making of any other determination or resolution that is primarily at issue in the Dispute, the arbitral tribunal shall be empowered to award equitable relief, including, but not limited to, an injunction and specific performance of any obligation under this Agreement; provided that a claim under the indemnification provisions of Article 11 shall at all times be governed by the procedures set forth in paragraphs (v) through (vii) above.

(ix) The arbitral tribunal shall award the prevailing party its attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred in the arbitration, including the prevailing party’s share of the arbitrator fees and AAA administrative costs.

(x) The Parties intend that this agreement to arbitrate shall be valid, enforceable and irrevocable, and any determination, resolution and/or award made or rendered by the arbitration tribunal shall be final and binding on all the parties to the Dispute. The parties to the dispute agree to comply with any award made in any such arbitration proceedings. Judgment upon any award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction, including any court having jurisdiction over any party or any of its assets.

(xi) By agreeing to arbitration, the parties to the Dispute do not intend to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to issue a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment, or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings and the enforcement of any award. Without prejudice to such provisional remedies as may be available under the jurisdiction of a court, the arbitral tribunal shall have full authority to grant provisional remedies and to direct the parties to request that any court modify or vacate any temporary or preliminary relief issued by such court, and to award damages for the failure of any party to respect the arbitral tribunal’s orders to that effect. In any such action brought in court for such provisional remedies or enforcement of any award, each of the parties to the Dispute irrevocably and unconditionally: (A) consents and submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Courts of the State of Colorado and the Federal Courts of the United States of America located within the State of Colorado (the “Colorado Courts”); (B) waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens or any right of objection to jurisdiction on account of its place of incorporation or domicile, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in any Colorado Court; (C) consents to service of process in the manner provided by this Agreement or in any other manner permitted by Legal Requirements; and (D) WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

35

(xii) This arbitration, and all prior, subsequent or concurrent judicial proceedings related thereto and permitted herein, shall be conducted pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, found at Title 9 of the U.S. Code. The parties to the Dispute intend that the arbitration tribunal shall apply the substantive Laws of the State of Delaware to any Dispute hereunder, without regard to any choice of law principles thereof that would mandate the application of the Laws of another jurisdiction.

(xiii) In order to facilitate the comprehensive resolution of related disputes, all claims between any of the parties to the Dispute that arise under or in connection with this Agreement may be brought in a single arbitration. Upon the request of any party to an arbitration proceeding constituted under this Agreement, the arbitral tribunal shall consolidate such arbitration proceeding with any other arbitration proceeding relating to this Agreement, if the arbitral tribunal determines that (A) there are issues of fact or law common to the proceedings so that a consolidated proceeding would be more efficient than separate proceedings, and (B) no party to the Dispute would be unduly prejudiced as a result of such consolidation through undue delay or otherwise. In the event of different rulings on this question by the arbitral tribunal constituted hereunder and another arbitral tribunal constituted under this Agreement, the ruling of the arbitral tribunal constituted first in time shall control, and such arbitral tribunal shall serve as the tribunal for any consolidated arbitration.

(xiv) In the event of a Dispute, each party to the Dispute shall continue to perform its obligations under this Agreement in good faith during the resolution of such Dispute as if such Dispute had not arisen, unless and until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(xv) Any arbitration hereunder shall be confidential, and the Parties and their agents agree not to disclose to any third party (A) the existence or status of the arbitration, (B) all information made known and documents produced in the arbitration not otherwise in the public domain, and (C) all awards arising from the arbitration, except and to the extent that disclosure is required by applicable Law or is required to protect or pursue a legal right, and in any such case, the Party making such disclosure shall produce only those materials and information that are necessary and shall take reasonable steps to safeguard the confidentiality of the materials and information.

(c) Binding Agreement. The Parties agree that the provisions of this Section 15.2 bind themselves and their Affiliates, and further agree to take all measures to lawfully cause their Affiliates to abide and be bound by the terms of this Section 15.2.

15.3 Cooperation by Manager. Manager shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause all its employees to reasonably cooperate, in connection with the prosecution or defense of all legal proceedings affecting the Properties or arising in connection with the indemnity obligations of Owner provided for in Section 11.1(b) hereof (but subject to the limitations and allocation of costs therein). The duty of Manager to cooperate shall survive the Expiration Date.

15.4 Cooperation by Owner. Owner shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause all its employees, agents and representatives to reasonably cooperate, in connection with the

36

prosecution or defense of all legal proceedings arising in connection with the indemnity obligations of Manager provided for in Section 11.1(a) hereof (but subject to the limitations and allocation of costs therein). Owner’s duty to cooperate shall survive the Expiration Date.

16.7 Unavoidable Delays. Each Party shall be excused from performing its obligations under this Agreement for so long as and to the extent that performance is prevented or delayed by Unavoidable Delay; provided, however, that (a) such Party shall, within thirty (30) days after the beginning of any such Unavoidable Delay, have first notified the other Party in writing of the cause(s) thereof and requested an extension, (b) such Party must diligently seek removal or avoidance of the hindrance, and (c) even though the time for performance may be extended as provided in this Section 16.7, the parties shall remain bound by the other terms, covenants, and agreements of this Agreement.

16.8 Subordination. This Agreement, the rights of Manager hereunder, including the right for Manager to receive any fees hereunder, shall be subordinated to any financing on any Property and to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of the loan documents thereof, and to any renewal, substitution, extension, modification, or replacement thereof. In the event of the foreclosure (or deed in lieu of foreclosure) of any mortgage or deed of trust on any Property, the purchaser of such Property at any such foreclosure sale or grantee under any deed in lieu of such foreclosure may, without any cost or liability to such purchaser or grantee, terminate this Agreement and Manager’s rights hereunder upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Manager. In no event shall any such purchaser or grantee have any liability for any of the obligations of Owner hereunder arising prior to the date such party acquires any Property. Manager agrees to execute from time to time upon the request of Owner or any such mortgagee such agreements as any such mortgagee of any Property may require in order to further evidence or confirm such subordination and the other provisions of this Section 16.8. Any such subordination shall permit Manager to receive and retain fees earned prior to an event of default under the applicable loan document.

16.9 Joint and Several. If Manager at any time consists of more than one entity, the obligation of all such entities under this Agreement shall be joint and several.

16.10 Exhibits. The exhibits referred to in and attached to this Agreement are incorporated herein in full by reference.

16.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. All signatures of the parties to this Agreement may be transmitted by PDF attached to an email, and such PDF shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be the original signature of such Party whose signature it reproduces, and shall be binding upon such Party.

16.12 Consents and Approvals.

(a) Unless as otherwise expressly set forth herein, if Manager requests the approval or consent of Owner pursuant to this Agreement and Owner does not respond within the requisite time period set forth herein, then Owner shall be deemed to have disapproved such request.

(b) If the consent or approval of any lender or other unaffiliated third party is required in connection with the execution of this Agreement with respect to any Property, (i) Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent or approval, (ii) the

38

Parties shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of any related and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements) incurred in obtaining such consent or approval, and (iii) the effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to such Property shall be contingent upon obtaining such consent or approval. If any lender or other unaffiliated third party requires Owner to enter into a separate property management agreement with Manager with respect to any Property, the Parties agree to enter into such separate property management agreement, which separate property management agreement shall be substantially the same as this Agreement except it shall relate solely to such Property.

16.13 OFAC Representations, Warranties, and Indemnification. Owner and Manager each represents and warrants that it is not a person or entity with whom U.S. persons or entities are restricted from doing business under regulations of OFAC of the Department of the Treasury (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), or under any other law, rule, order, or regulation that is enforced or administered by OFAC.

16.14 Non-Business Days. Whenever action must be taken (including the giving of notice or the delivery of documents) under this Agreement during a certain period of time or by a particular date that ends or occurs on a day other than a Business Day, then such period or date shall be extended until the immediately following Business Day.

16.15 No Personal Data. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Manager acknowledges and agrees that, in performing its obligations to provide information to Owner hereunder, Manager shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their employee and representatives to not) without the prior written consent of Owner, provide or make available or accessible to Owner any Personal Data. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing restrictions do not apply to any information that is anonymized, or to the street addresses of, and rent amounts payable by Tenants with respect to, any Property. “Personal Data” means a natural person’s name, street address, telephone number, e-mail address, photograph, social security number or tax identification number, driver’s license number, passport number, credit card number, bank information or biometric information or any other piece of information that allows the identification of such natural person, or any other data which is considered “personal data” (or any similar concept thereto) as defined under applicable privacy laws.

16.16 Other Action. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Parties shall cooperate with the other and use (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to use) their respective commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, all things, necessary to consummate and make effective the terms, conditions or other aspects of this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
