Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall not be entitled to notice of default or cure period for Purchaser’s failure to close on the scheduled Closing Date.

Purchaser acknowledges that Seller’s liability under Paragraph 7 shall be limited to the Self Help Remedy described in Paragraph 7.7 hereof.
16. CLOSING COSTS AND EXPENSES. Seller shall pay for the cost of documentary stamp taxes on the deeds, if any, and recording the deeds.

BACKGROUND
Seller and Purchaser are simultaneously with the execution of this Escrow Agreement closing pursuant to an Agreement for Purchase and Sale dated even date herewith (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser and Seller have agreed to enter into this Escrow Agreement to govern the delivery of certain Letter of Credit (hereinafter defined) and to govern the collection and disbursement of any proceeds thereof in accordance with the Purchase Agreement and the terms and provisions of this Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent has agreed to serve as the Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, Seller, Purchaser and Escrow Agent hereby agree as follows:
Recitals. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated by reference. All capitalized terms which are not defined in this Escrow Agreement shall have the same meaning as defined in the Purchase Agreement.
Letter of Credit. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Seller has delivered to Escrow Agent a letter of credit as described on Exhibit “A”, attached hereto and made a part hereof (“Letter of Credit”). Escrow Agent shall hold the Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and this Escrow Agreement. With respect to the Letter of Credit, Escrow Agent agrees as follows:
Escrow Agent shall draw upon the Letter of Credit if Escrow Agent receives from Purchaser a written statement that Seller is in “default under subparagraph of Paragraph 7 of the Purchase Agreement, and all applicable cure periods have expired without Seller curing such default.” Escrow Agent shall then hold the proceeds of such Letter of Credit as the Escrow Fund (hereinafter defined).
In the event that the Letter of Credit is due to expire pursuant to its own terms and the obligations under the Purchase Agreement secured by such Letter of Credit have not yet been completed, Seller shall, at least, forty-five (45) days prior to the expiration of such Letter of Credit, either (i) provide Escrow Agent with an amendment to such expiring Letter of Credit, extending the expiration date thereof, or (ii) substitute a new letter of credit for the expiring Letter of Credit upon identical terms and conditions and complying with the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and this Escrow Agreement, or (iii) replace the expiring Letter of Credit with a cash deposit by wire transfer of funds to the Escrow Agent. If Escrow Agent receives the cash deposit to replace the expiring Letter of Credit, Escrow Agent shall return the expiring Letter of Credit to Seller. If Seller fails to take any of the foregoing actions, then Escrow Agent shall, and each of Seller and Purchaser hereby unconditionally authorize Escrow Agent to (x) present any such Letter of Credit due to expire for payment and (y) hold the cash proceeds thereof in escrow as part of the Escrow Fund, subject to disbursement as provided in Paragraph 4 hereof.
The Letter of Credit is subject to reduction, from time to time, in accordance with the terms and provisions of Paragraph 7.2 of the Purchase Agreement. To the extent that such reduction is permitted by the terms of such paragraph, the parties shall cooperate as necessary to execute any and all consents required by the issuing bank to so reduce the Letter of Credit as permitted under the Purchase Agreement.
Establishment of Escrow Fund. To the extent that Escrow Agent receives cash deposits pursuant to drawing upon the Letter of Credit as provided herein, Escrow Agent shall hold such Cash Deposits (the “Escrow Fund”) in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent shall deposit the Escrow Fund in Wachovia Bank, N.A. and shall hold and disburse the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms and provisions of Paragraph 4 hereof. If Seller delivers to Escrow Agent a Form W-9, satisfactory to Escrow Agent’s bank, the Escrow Fund shall be deposited in an interest bearing money market account. All interest earned on the Escrow Fund shall be added to the Escrow Fund, subject to disbursement as provided in Paragraph 4 hereof.
Disbursement of Escrow Fund. All disbursements shall be made from the Escrow Fund pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 7.7 of the Purchase Agreement.
Liability of Escrow Agent. In performing any of its duties under this Escrow Agreement, Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any loss, costs or damage which it may incur as a result of serving as Escrow Agent hereunder, except for any loss, cost or damages arising out of willful acts of malfeasance or gross negligence. Accordingly, Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken: (i) in good faith upon advice of its counsel given with respect to any questions relating to the duties and responsibilities of the Parties pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or this Escrow Agreement; or (ii) in reliance upon any document, including any written notice of instruction provides for in the Purchase Agreement or this Escrow Agreement, not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which Escrow Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine, to have been signed or presented by a proper person or persons and to conform with the provisions of this Escrow Agreement.

GUARANTY
In order to induce Seller to execute deliver the foregoing Agreement for Purchase and Sale (the “Agreement”), and for other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Kolter Communities Florida LLC, a Florida limited liability company (the “Guarantor”), hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Seller, its successors and assigns, full and prompt payment and performance by Purchaser of all obligations of Seller to Purchaser under or pursuant to Paragraph 8 of the Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Guarantor acknowledges that Purchaser is an Affiliate of Guarantor and that Guarantor therefore has received and will receive valuable benefits as a result of the conveyance of the Real Property by Seller to Purchaser.
Guarantor hereby waives acceptance and notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notice of non-payment, non-performance or non-observance, and all other notices, proofs or demands, except for notice of Purchaser’s breach or failure to perform as provided above, and any and all other suretyship defenses to enforcement of this Guaranty. Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder will not be terminated, affected or impaired by reason of the granting by Purchaser of any indulgences to Purchaser or by reason of the assertion against Purchaser of any of the rights or remedies reserved to Seller pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement, or by the relief of Seller from any of the Purchaser's obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise, including, without limitation, rejection of the Guaranteed Obligations in a bankruptcy proceeding. Guarantor further agrees that its liability hereunder for the Guaranteed Obligations is and will be primary, and that in any right of action which accrues to Seller with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, Seller may, at its option, proceed against the Guarantor and Purchaser jointly or severally, and may proceed against Guarantor without having commenced any action against or having obtained any judgment against Purchaser. Failure of Seller to insist in any one or more instances upon strict performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions, or covenants of this Guaranty, or to exercise any right therein or herein contained, will not be construed or deemed to be a waiver or relinquishment for the future of such term, provision, covenant or right, but the same will continue and remain in full force and effect. No assignment or other transfer of the Agreement, or any interest therein, will operate to extinguish or diminish the liability of Guarantor hereunder. If Seller obtains a judgment against Guarantor by reason of a breach of this Guaranty, Guarantor will pay the reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in any collection or attempted collection of the obligations hereby guaranteed or in enforcing this Guaranty. If claim is ever made upon Seller for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and Seller repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over Seller or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by Seller with any such claimant (including Purchaser) then and in such event Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise will be binding upon Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or other instrument evidencing any liability of Purchaser, and Guarantor will be and remain liable to Seller hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by Seller. This Guaranty will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective heirs, administrators, executors, successors and assigns.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Guaranty is executed this ____ day of December, 2007.
