4. TITLE

(a) As soon as possible following the execution of this Agreement, Purchaser shall order, at Seller’s expense, a title commitment on the Real Property (the “Commitment”), together with legible copies of all documents relating to the title exceptions referred to in the Commitment.

(b) The Due Diligence Documents include an existing survey of the Property (the “Survey”).

Rents unpaid for the month in which the Closing occurs, which are uncollected as of Closing but which are received within the month in which the Closing occurs shall be prorated. Rents and other charges which at the Closing are thirty (30) or more days past due (“Delinquent Rents”) shall not be prorated. Rents and other amounts received by Purchaser after the Closing from a Tenant owing Delinquent Rents shall be applied (i) first, to all Purchaser’s costs of collection incurred with respect to such Tenant (including reasonable attorneys’ fees); (ii) second, to rents due for the month in which such payment is received by Purchaser; (iii) third, to rents attributable to any period after the Closing which are past due on the date of receipt; and (iv) then, to Delinquent Rents.

(d) Such other items that are customarily prorated in transactions of this nature (including, without limitation, any utilities paid by Seller under the Leases) shall be prorated.

The provisions of this Section 12 shall survive the Closing.

Purchaser shall be deemed to be the owner of the Property and, therefore, entitled to the income from the Property and responsible for the expenses of the Property for the entire day upon which the Closing occurs. All such prorations shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days of the month which shall have elapsed as of the day of the Closing. To the extent information necessary to make such prorations is not available at the Closing, the amount of such prorations shall be subject to adjustment in cash after the Closing as and when complete and accurate information becomes available. Seller and Purchaser agree to cooperate and use their best efforts to make such adjustments as soon as practical after the Closing. Except as set forth in this Section 12, all items of income and expense for the period prior to the Closing Date will be for the account of Seller and all items of income and expense for the period on and after the Closing Date will be for the account of Purchaser, all as determined by the accrual method of accounting. Bills received after the Closing Date which relate to expenses incurred, services performed or other amounts allocable to the period prior to the Closing Date shall be paid by Seller.

13. CLOSING

The purchase and sale contemplated herein shall close at the offices of the Escrow Agent on April 30, 2007 or at such other time, date and place as the parties shall mutually agree. As used herein, the terms “Closing” and “Closing Date” shall mean the date on which Escrow Agent (i) has received all funds and all documents (property executed and acknowledged, as necessary) as required hereunder, (ii) is in a position to record the Deed and issue the Title Policy, and (iii) has taken all actions necessary to consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. In addition to Purchaser’s extension rights set forth in Section 19(r) below, Purchaser shall have the right to extend the closing date for thirty (30) days upon (i) giving Seller notice to do so at least three (3) business days prior to the originally scheduled Closing Date and (ii) payment of an extension deposit (the “Extension Deposit”) of $150,000.

The costs of the Updated Survey shall be paid as provided above. The costs to record the Deed shall be allocated between Seller and Purchaser in accordance with local custom, as determined by the Escrow Agent. Purchaser shall pay for all due diligence expenses. Each party shall bear the expense of its own counsel.

15. LOSS BY FIRE, OTHER CASUALTY OR CONDEMNATION

(a) In the event that prior to the Closing, the Improvements, or any part thereof, are destroyed or materially damaged (as defined in Section 15(e)), Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable by giving notice to Seller within fifteen (15) days after receiving written notice of such damage or destruction, either (i) to terminate this Agreement, in which case neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except any indemnification obligations of Purchaser and the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and any documents shall be returned to the party depositing the same, or (ii) to accept the Improvements in their then condition and to proceed with the Closing with an abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price in the amount of the deductible for the applicable insurance coverage, and to receive an assignment of all of Seller’s rights to any insurance proceeds payable by reason of such damage or destruction. If Purchaser elects to proceed under clause (ii) above, Seller shall not compromise, settle or adjust any claims to such proceeds without Purchaser’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) In the event that prior to the Closing there is any non-material damage to the Improvements, or any part thereof, Seller shall either repair or replace such damage prior to the Closing or credit Purchaser for the amount of the damage, in which case Purchaser shall accept the Improvements in their then condition and proceed with the Closing, and in either case Seller shall be entitled to retain all insurance proceeds payable by reason of such non-material damage. For purposes of contemplating any repairs or replacements under this Section 15(b), the Closing may be extended for a reasonable time to allow such repairs or replacements to be made by Seller.

(c) In the event that prior to the Closing, all or any material portion (as defined in Section 15(e)) of the Land and Improvements are subject to a taking by public authority, Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable by giving notice to Seller within fifteen (15) days after receiving written notice of such taking, either (i) to terminate this Agreement, in which case neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except any indemnification obligations of Purchaser and the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and any documents shall be returned to the party depositing the same, or (ii) to accept the Land and Improvements in their then condition, without a reduction in the Purchase Price, and to receive an assignment of all of Seller’s rights to any condemnation award payable by reason of such taking. If Purchaser elects to proceed under clause (ii) above, Seller shall not compromise, settle or adjust any claims to such award without Purchaser’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d) In the event that prior to the Closing, any non-material portion of the Land or Improvements is subject to a taking, Purchaser shall accept the Property in its then condition and proceed with the Closing, in which case Purchaser shall be entitled to an assignment of all of Seller’s rights to any award in connection with such taking. In the event of any such non-material taking, Seller shall not compromise, settle or adjust any claims to such award without Purchaser’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(e) For the purpose of this Section 15, damage to the Improvements or a taking of a portion thereof shall be deemed to involve a material portion thereof if the reasonably estimated cost of restoration or repair of such damage or the amount of the condemnation award with respect of such taking shall exceed Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000), if the number of parking spaces is reduced or the entrances and entrance signs are relocated.

(f) In the event of material or non-material damage to the Improvements which is non-insured and Purchaser elects to proceed to Closing Purchaser shall receive a credit at Closing in the amount of the uninsured loss, provided, however, if the amount of the uninsured loss exceeds $200,000, the Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and the Deposit shall be returned to Purchaser and any documents shall be returned to the party depositing the same.

(g) Seller agrees to give Purchaser prompt notice of any taking, damage or destruction of the Land or Improvements.

(h) The provisions of this Section 15 shall survive the Closing.

16. DEFAULT

(a) The parties agree that, in the event of a default by Purchaser under this Agreement, the damages suffered by Seller would be difficult to ascertain. Seller and Purchaser agree that, in the event of a default by Purchaser, Seller’s sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement and retain the Deposit as liquidated damages, and Seller hereby specifically waives the right to seek specific performance of this Agreement by Purchaser.

(b) In the event of a default hereunder by Seller, Purchaser shall have at its option either to (i) bring an action for specific performance of this Agreement or (ii) terminate this Agreement, and have the Deposit returned to it. If specific performance is not available as a remedy due to Seller’s voluntary and intentional actions, such as conveying the property to a third party without notice of the contract, then upon termination by Purchaser pursuant to (ii) above, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its actual, out-of-pocket due diligence expenses, non-refundable fees and expenses paid to lenders, including but not limited to third party reports, attorneys’ fees, rate lock deposits, application fees and commitment fees.

17. POST CLOSING INDEMNIFICATION

(a) Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Purchaser and any successor in interest (the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against:

(i) any loss, liability or damage suffered or incurred by the Indemnified Parties as a result of any legal action filed against Purchaser as a result of events arising at the Property prior to Closing and not caused by Purchaser; and

(ii) all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with any action, suit, proceeding, demand, assessment or judgment incident to any of the matters indemnified against in this Section 17(a).

(b) Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Seller from and against:

(i) any loss, liability or damage suffered or incurred by Seller as a result of any legal action filed against Seller as a result of events arising at the Property from and after Closing and not caused by Seller; and

(ii) all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Seller in connection with any action, suit, proceeding, demand, assessment or judgment incident to any of the matters indemnified against in this Section 17(b).

(c) The provisions of this Section 17 shall survive the Closing.

18. BROKERS

(a) Seller shall be solely responsible for brokerage commissions due Thompson Realty Corporation and Carbon Capital Management, LLC, each in the amount of .5% of the Purchase Price (the “Seller’s Broker”), which shall be due only in the event Closing occurs and not otherwise. Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that no other brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or other compensation is due or payable by reason of the actions of Seller with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby. Seller agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any losses, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Purchaser by reason of any breach or inaccuracy of the representation and warranty contained in this Section 18(a).

(b) Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller, Purchaser has not entered into any agreement or incurred any obligation which might result in the obligation to pay any brokerage commission, finder’s fee or other compensation with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby.

(c) The provisions of this Section 18 shall survive the Closing.

19. MISCELLANEOUS

(a) Each individual and entity executing this Agreement hereby represents and warrants that he or it has the capacity set forth on the signature pages hereof with full power and authority to bind the party on whose behalf he or it is executing this Agreement to the terms hereof.

(b) This Agreement is the entire Agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements between the parties with respect to the matters contained in this Agreement. Any waiver, modification, consent or acquiescence with respect to any provision of this Agreement shall be set forth in writing and duly executed by or in behalf of the party to be bound thereby. No waiver by any party of any breach hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

(c) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The signature page of any counterpart may be detached therefrom without impairing the legal effect of the signature(s) thereon provided such signature page is attached to any other counterpart identical thereto except having additional signature pages executed by other parties to this Agreement attached thereto.

(d) Any communication, notice or demand of any kind whatsoever which either party may be required or may desire to give to or serve upon the other shall be in writing and delivered by personal service (including express or courier service) or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

Hirschler Fleischer
The Edgeworth Building
2100 E. Cary Street
Richmond, VA ###-###-####

Any party may change its address for notice by written notice given to the other in the manner provided in this Section. Any such communication, notice or demand shall be deemed to have been duly given or served on the date personally served, if by personal service, or on the date shown on the return receipt or other evidence of delivery, if mailed.

(e) The parties agree to execute such instructions to the Escrow Agent and such other instruments and to do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Agreement.

(f) The making, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto has been induced by no representations, statements, warranties or agreements other than those expressly set forth herein.

(g) Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be valid under applicable law, but, if any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or prohibited thereunder, such invalidity or prohibition shall be construed as if such invalid or prohibited provision had not been inserted herein and shall not affect the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

(h) The language in all parts of this Agreement shall be in all cases construed simply according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any of the parties hereto. Section headings of this Agreement are solely for convenience of reference and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

(i) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State.

(j) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and to their respective transferees, successors, and assigns; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations of Seller hereunder shall be transferred or assigned by Seller without the prior written consent of Purchaser. Purchaser shall have the right to assign all of its right, title and interest under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller to an entity managed or controlled by Purchaser or an affiliate of Purchaser. Except as to any such affiliate, or as provided for in Section 19(q) below, Purchaser may not otherwise assign this Agreement without Seller’s prior, written consent.

(k) All Exhibits attached hereto are incorporated herein by reference.

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall not be deemed or construed to make the parties hereto partners or joint venturers, or to render either party liable for any of the debts or obligations of the other, it being the intention of the parties to merely create the relationship of seller and purchaser with respect to the Property to be conveyed as contemplated hereby.

(m) This Agreement shall not be recorded or filed in the public land or other public records of any jurisdiction by either party and any attempt to do so may be treated by the other party as a breach of this Agreement.

(n) Purchaser, during its inspection of the Real Property, agrees not to notify or advise of the existing tenants of the Real Property that the Real Property is for sale until such time as all conditions precedent to closing have been satisfied.

(o) During the period from the date of execution of this Agreement until the Closing or this Agreement is terminated, Seller agrees not to market the Property for sale, accept any offer for purchase, offer the Property for joint venture, apply for any financing, divulge to any potential purchaser or joint venturer or lender any written material with respect to the Property nor divulge nor communicate in any way to any potential purchaser or joint venturer or lender with respect to the Property, any information with respect to the Property.

(p) Unless provided to the contrary in any particular provision, all time periods shall refer to calendar days and shall expire at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the last of such days; provided, however, that if the time for the performance of any obligation expires on a day which is not a business day (Saturday, Sunday and days on which banks in the state where the Property is located are closed), the time for performance shall be extended to the next business day.

(q) The Seller acknowledges that Purchaser intends to assign all of its rights, title and interest in and to this Agreement to a publicly registered company (“Registered Company”) promoted by the Purchaser, to which Seller hereby consents. The Seller acknowledges that it has been advised that if the purchaser is a Registered Company, the assignee is required to make certain filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC Filings”) that relate to the most recent pre-acquisition fiscal year (the “Audited Year”) for the Property. To assist the assignee in preparing the SEC Filings, the Seller agrees to provide the assignee with the following:

The provisions of this document shall survive the Close of Escrow.

(r) This Agreement is executed concurrently with Purchase and Sale Agreements (the “Other Agreements”) between Purchaser and Northspring Park, LLC, El Dorado Apartments, LLC and San Marin Corpus Christi, Ltd., with respect to the Parks at Northgate Apartments, the Villas at El Dorado Apartments and the San Marin Apartments, respectively (collectively, the “Other Properties”). So long as Purchaser timely closes at least one of the Other Properties, Purchaser shall have the right to extend the Closing hereunder or under any of the remaining Other Agreements by up to ten (10) days per closing, so that as between this Agreement and the Other Agreements, the four closings shall occur approximately one every ten (10) days, or sooner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Purchaser may not postpone Closing hereunder so that same occurs after the closing for the Parks at Northgate. Seller’s obligations under this Agreement are conditioned upon closing occurring under such Other Agreements. If the closing under any Other Agreement does not occur for reasons other than solely due to the default of the applicable seller thereunder, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate this Agreement. If under any such Other Agreement the seller thereunder is entitled to receive the Deposit (as such term is defined in the applicable Other Agreement), then Seller shall be entitled to receive the Deposit hereunder, and if under any such Other Agreement the Purchaser is entitled to receive the Deposit (as such term is defined in the applicable Other Agreement), then Purchaser shall be entitled to receive the Deposit hereunder.

(s) Either or both of Purchaser or Seller may structure this transaction as a like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, whereby Purchaser completes a like-kind exchange by acquiring the Property as the exchange property or whereby Seller commences a like-kind exchange by selling the Property and thereafter acquiring exchange property. In either such event the parties agree to cooperate with each other, without any delay in the Closing and without cost, expense or liability to the cooperating party, in connection therewith. Such cooperation shall include the right to assign this Contract to a third-party accommodator; provided in such event the assigning party shall not be relieved of any liability or obligation hereunder.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized representatives as of the day and year first above written.
