WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Seller is the current owner of (i) the real property described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Land”), together with the buildings and improvements thereon (the “Improvements”) known as and by Enon Springs Apartments, 417 Enon Springs Road East, Smyrna, Tennessee  (collectively, the "Real Property"); and

WHEREAS, in accordance with the terms hereof, Seller wishes to sell and Purchaser wishes to acquire the Real Property, together with the property and property rights described in Paragraph 10 (collectively, the “Premises”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the sufficiency of which being hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

1.           Purchase Price.   Seller agrees to sell and Purchaser agrees to acquire the Premises for the sum of $6,612,000.00 (the “Purchase Price”) payable as follows:

$100,000.00 upon the execution and delivery of this Contract of Sale as the nonrefundable (except as specifically set forth herein) Downpayment (hereinafter defined), by check(s) made payable to the order of First American Title Insurance Company, as escrow agent (“Escrow Agent”), which sum shall be held in escrow pursuant to the terms hereof; and
 
$6,512,000.00, at the Closing, by wire transfer to an account designated by Seller.

2.           Escrow.   Concurrently with the full execution of this Contract of Sale, Purchaser has delivered to Escrow Agent, a check(s) (subject to collection) in the amount of $100,000.00 as the downpayment (the "Downpayment").  Escrow Agent shall deposit the Downpayment into an interest-bearing account(s) maintained at a federally insured financial institution(s).  Escrow Agent shall deliver the Downpayment in accordance with this Contract of Sale, or a joint instruction signed by Seller and Purchaser, or separate instructions of like tenor signed by Seller and Purchaser, or a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  Escrow Agent hereby is authorized and directed to deliver the Downpayment to Seller if, as and when title closes.  If Escrow Agent shall receive a written request by one party for the release of the escrow, Escrow Agent will give a copy thereof to the other party.  If Escrow Agent shall not receive an objection from the other party within five (5) business days, then Escrow Agent shall so release the Downpayment.  If Escrow Agent receives an objection, then Escrow Agent shall continue to hold the Downpayment in accordance with the terms hereof.  Escrow Agent at any time may deposit the Downpayment with a court of competent jurisdiction, and upon notice to Seller and Purchaser of such deposit, Escrow Agent shall have no further responsibility or liability hereunder.  Escrow Agent may act upon any instruction or other writing believed by Escrow Agent in good faith to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper persons.  Except as otherwise noted herein, any interest or income thereon shall be paid to the party entitled to receive the Downpayment; provided, however, that if Seller shall receive the interest at Closing then such interest shall serve as a credit against the Purchase Price.  It is understood and agreed that if a check for any portion of the Downpayment shall fail to clear then Escrow Agent shall deliver the portion, if any, of the Downpayment that shall have cleared (together with any interest earned thereon) to Seller and this Contract of Sale shall terminate and neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder to the other except that Seller shall be permitted to attempt to collect from Purchaser on the check that shall have failed to clear by commencing litigation or otherwise as provided for by law.

Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that Escrow Agent is merely a stakeholder, and that Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any act or omission unless taken or suffered in bad faith, in willful disregard of this Contract of Sale or involving gross negligence.  Escrow Agent shall not be liable for the failure of the institution(s) in which the Downpayment has been deposited or for establishing accounts in excess of applicable guaranty limits.  Seller and Purchaser agree to indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and against any reasonable costs, claims or expenses incurred in connection with the performance of the Escrow Agent's duties hereunder, unless such costs, claims or expenses were occasioned by Escrow Agent's gross negligence, bad faith or willful disregard of this Contract of Sale.

Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any agreement between Seller and Purchaser (other than this Contract of Sale), whether or not Escrow Agent has knowledge thereof, and Escrow Agent's only duties and responsibilities shall be to hold, and to dispose of, the Downpayment and interest earned thereon in accordance with this Contract of Sale.  Escrow Agent may consult with counsel, and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect to any action taken or omitted by Escrow Agent hereunder in good faith and in reliance upon such opinion.

All instructions or notices given to the Escrow Agent shall be in writing and delivered in accordance with the requirements of this Contract of Sale.  For purposes of this paragraph, such instructions and notices shall be deemed delivered on the date of delivery, if by hand, or on the date of mailing if mailed, except that no instruction or notice to Escrow Agent shall be deemed effectively delivered to Escrow Agent until actual receipt thereof by Escrow Agent.

D.           Purchaser acknowledges that Seller may have  information concerning the condition of the property, including information about its environmental and/or structural condition including possibly prior environmental or structural inspection reports. Purchaser also specifically acknowledges that except as expressly provided in this Contract of Sale, Seller is under no obligation or duty to disclose such information to Purchaser, and that Purchaser is not entitled to and does not expect any such disclosure. Purchaser acknowledges that Seller does not wish to expose itself to any potential claims (including without limitation that any such information (including without limitation environmental and building condition reports) is in any manner deficient or that the information disclosed is not all of the relevant information that Seller may have on the matter) and Purchaser agrees that it has or will be having its own environmental and structural reports commissioned by licensed and insured consultants chosen by Purchaser and that Purchaser will be relying solely on those reports in making any assessments or conclusions as to the environmental and/or physical condition of the Premises.  Purchaser agrees that, except as expressly provided in this Contract of Sale, Seller shall have no obligation to provide any information regarding the environmental or physical condition of the Premises but in the event that Seller should provide any such information (notwithstanding that Seller has no obligation to do so except as expressly provided in this Contract of Sale), Purchaser acknowledges that any such information may not be all such information available to Seller on any particular topic. Purchaser hereby waives any claim against Seller and the Seller Parties related to any such information (including, without limitation, claims that such information is wrong, is inaccurate, is incomplete or that Seller knew or should have known that such information is wrong, is inaccurate and/or is incomplete, except to the extent that such is inconsistent with the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in this Contract of Sale).

E.           Purchaser is hereby notified that residential dwellings built prior to 1978 may present exposure to lead from lead-based paint that may place young children at risk of developing lead poisoning.  Lead poisoning in young children may produce permanent neurological damage, including learning disabilities, reduced intelligence quotient, behavioral problems and impaired memory.  Lead poisoning also poses a particular risk to pregnant women.  The seller of any interest in residential real property is required to provide the buyer with any information on lead-based paint hazards from risk assessments or inspections in the seller's possession and notify the buyer of any known lead-based paint hazards.  A risk assessment or inspection for possible lead-based paint hazards is recommended prior to purchase of the Premises (the "Lead-Based Paint Inspection").  Purchaser acknowledges that it has read understood the lead warning statement above and has received the Lead Hazard Information Pamphlet Protect your Family From Lead in Your Home.  Purchaser shall have the Due Diligence Period to notify Seller of any defects or issues raised by the Lead-Based Paint Inspection that Purchaser is not satisfied with.

The warranties and representations contained in this Paragraph  4 shall survive the Closing for a period of six (6) months.

5.           Title.   A.   Purchaser agrees to promptly order a commitment for title insurance from Escrow Agent.  Purchaser shall have until the end of the Due Diligence Period to notify Seller in writing of any objections it may have to said title commitment, otherwise Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any objections it may have to Seller's title to the Premises and shall be required to close on its acquisition of the Premises without offset or abatement.  Purchaser agrees to take title if insurable by Escrow Agent at standard premiums and subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (hereafter defined).  If Purchaser shall timely notify Seller of a defect in Seller's title, then Seller shall have the option of either terminating this Contract of Sale (in which event the Downpayment with interest thereon shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties shall have no other liability to each other) or to attempt to cure such defect(s).  Seller shall be entitled, at its option, to extensions of the Closing Date (hereafter defined) for up to ninety (90) days in the aggregate to attempt to cure such defect(s).  If Seller shall have elected to attempt to cure such defects and should Seller not cure such defect(s) regardless of the reason, then Purchaser shall have the option (exercisable within ten (10) days of Seller's notification thereof to Purchaser), to close on its purchase of the Premises in accordance with the terms hereof with no abatement or offset.  If Purchaser shall not have timely exercised its option set forth in the preceding sentence, then this Contract of Sale shall terminate, the Downpayment together with interest thereon shall be returned to Purchaser and the parties shall have no other liability to each other.  Purchaser shall have three business (3) days following its receipt of a continuation report (but in no event later than and the Closing Date shall be extended as necessary to accommodate such 3-business day period) to notify Seller of any new title defects raised thereby which did not exist at the time of the issuance of the initial title commitment and the provisions above of this Paragraph shall apply in respect of such new title defects.
