PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

AND JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS

This PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT AND JOINT ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the 24th day of February, 2014, by and between BR CREEKSIDE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), and STEADFAST ASSET HOLDINGS, INC., a California corporation (“Buyer”), with reference to the following facts:

RECITALS:

A.Seller is the fee owner of that certain land with a multi-family residential project commonly known as Reserve at Creekside Village, consisting of 192 units situated thereon, located at 1340 Reserve Way, Chattanooga, TN 37421 and more particularly described in Exhibit “A” attached hereto, together with all structures, improvements, machinery, fixtures and equipment affixed or attached to such land (collectively referred to herein as the “Real Property”).

B.Seller desires to sell the Real Property, along with certain related personal and intangible property, to Buyer, and Buyer desires to purchase such Real Property and related personal and intangible property from Seller in accordance with the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto mutually agree as follows:

1.PURCHASE AND SALE.

1.1 Property. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and for the consideration herein set forth, Seller agrees to sell and transfer, and Buyer agrees to purchase and acquire, all of Seller’s right, title, and interest in and to the following (collectively, the “Property”):

1.1.1 The Real Property;

1.1.2 All easements, interests, rights, privileges, tenements, hereditaments and appurtenances on or in any way appertaining to the Real Property, including, without limitation, all water and water rights;

1.1.3 All equipment, tools, machinery, materials, furniture, furnishings, supplies, golf carts and other tangible personal property owned by Seller and located on or used exclusively in connection with or arising out of the ownership, management or operation of the Real Property (collectively, “Personal Property”); the Personal Property owned by Seller as of the date hereof is identified on Exhibit “B” attached hereto;

1.1.4 All leases and occupancy agreements relating to the Property in effect on the Date of Closing (as hereinafter defined), including all amendments thereto (collectively, “Leases”); the Leases in effect on the date of this Agreement are identified on the rent roll attached hereto as Schedule 1 (the “Rent Roll”);

1.1.5 Subject to Section 6.6 below, to the extent assignable without a termination fee or penalty, all service, maintenance, supply or other contracts relating to the leasing, advertising, operation, maintenance or repair of the Property in effect as of the date hereof (including without limitation all warranties and guarantees thereunder), which are identified on Schedule 2 attached hereto (collectively, “Contracts”);

1.1.6 To the extent assignable, all licenses, permits, certificates of occupancy and governmental approvals relating to the Property (collectively, “Approvals”) and any plans, specifications, studies, reports or surveys relating to the Real Property; and

1.1.7 To the extent assignable, all entitlements and intangible personal property in connection with or arising out of the design, construction, occupancy, use, management, operation, maintenance, repair or ownership of the Real Property, including, without limitation, trade names (including “Reserve at Creekside Village” or derivatives thereof), websites, web domains and internet addresses, all phone number(s) for the Real Property, all fax number(s) for the Real Property and logos (collectively, the “Intangible Property”).

The foregoing notwithstanding, neither the Personal Property or the Intangible Property shall include (A) any items owned by tenants or leased by Seller or owned by Seller’s property manager, Hawthorne Residential Partners, LLC (“Property Manager”), and (B) any trademarks, logos, trade colors, service marks and trade names of Seller, Bluerock Real Estate or Property Manager set forth on Schedule 3 hereto (collectively, the “Seller Trademarks”) and any advertising, promotional and similar materials which contain the Seller Trademarks, all of which shall be removed by Seller prior

to Closing. Within fifteen (15) days after Closing, Buyer will “banner” or otherwise temporarily mask the portion of all signage containing the Seller Trademarks, failing which, upon ten (10) days’ notice, Seller may do so at Buyer's expense. The Property described in Sections 1.1.1 through 1.1.7 shall, however, include any and all the items described therein in which any affiliate of Seller has any right, title or interest, to the extent the same is used solely in connection with the Real Property unless otherwise expressly agreed to by Buyer; it being understood and agreed that Seller shall cause such affiliate to convey the same to Buyer at Closing. Seller hereby confirms to Buyer that no vehicles are included in the Personal Property, and that no material Contracts are held in the name of Property Manager (other than any such contracts entered into by Property Manager as an agent of Seller, all of which are included in the Contracts identified on Schedule 2).

1.2 No Warranty. THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE SELLER AND BUYER WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTY AND THE SALE THEREOF IS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES ARE NOT BOUND BY ANY AGREEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS, PROVISIONS, CONDITIONS, REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES (WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL AND WHETHER MADE BY SELLER OR ANY AGENT, EMPLOYEE, MEMBER, OFFICER OR PRINCIPAL OF SELLER OR ANY OTHER PARTY) OTHER THAN AS ARE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE DEED AND THE OTHER DOCUMENTS DELIVERED AT CLOSING. FOR AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, TO THE EXTENT THAT SELLER OR PROPERTY MANAGER PROVIDES THE BUYER WITH THE REIT PROPERTY SERVICES QUESTIONAIRE REQUESTED IN THE LIMITED ACCESS AGREEMENT (AS HEREINAFTER DEFINED), THE INFORMATION CONTAINED THEREIN IS NOT INTENDED TO, AND EXPRESSLY WILL NOT, CONSTITUTE A REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY BY SELLER OR THE PROPERTY MANAGER WITH REGARD TO THE PROPERTY OR THE CONTENTS THEREOF, IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT SUCH QUESTIONAIRE IS BEING PROVIDED MERELY AS AN ACCOMMODATION TO BUYER, WITHOUT REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY REGARDING THE ACCURACY OF SUCH INFORMATION. WITHOUT IN ANY MANNER LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, EXCEPT FOR THE REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS OF SELLER EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE DEED AND OTHER DOCUMENTS DELIVERED AT CLOSING, THE PROPERTY, THE LEASES AND THE CONTRACTS WILL BE PURCHASED BY BUYER IN AN “AS IS” AND “WHERE IS” CONDITION AND WITH ALL EXISTING DEFECTS (PATENT AND LATENT) AND NOT IN RELIANCE ON ANY AGREEMENT, UNDERSTANDING, CONDITION, WARRANTY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF HABITABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) OR REPRESENTATION MADE BY SELLER OR ANY AGENT, EMPLOYEE, MEMBER, OFFICER OR PRINCIPAL OF SELLER OR ANY OTHER PARTY (EXCEPT FOR REPRESENTATIONS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE DEED AND OTHER DOCUMENTS DELIVERED AT CLOSING) AS TO THE FINANCIAL OR PHYSICAL (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ENVIRONMENTAL) CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY OR THE AREAS SURROUNDING THE PROPERTY, OR AS TO ANY OTHER MATTER WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS TO ANY PERMITTED USE THEREOF, THE ZONING CLASSIFICATION THEREOF OR

COMPLIANCE THEREOF WITH FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL LAWS, AS TO THE INCOME OR EXPENSE IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, OR AS TO ANY OTHER MATTER IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN THE DEED OR IN THE OTHER DOCUMENTS DELIVERED AT CLOSING, NEITHER SELLER, NOR ANY AGENT, MEMBER, OFFICER, EMPLOYEE OR PRINCIPAL OF SELLER NOR ANY OTHER PARTY ACTING ON BEHALF OF SELLER (INCLUDING PROPERTY MANAGER AND ITS EMPLOYEES) HAS MADE OR SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE ANY SUCH AGREEMENT, CONDITION, REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.

2. PURCHASE PRICE.

The total purchase price (“Purchase Price”) to be paid by Buyer to Seller for the Property shall be NINETEEN MILLION ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($19,100,000.00), payable all in cash.

3. PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE.

The Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:

3.1 Deposit. As part of the Opening of Escrow (as defined below), Buyer shall deliver to Madison Title Agency, LLC (“Escrow Holder”), which has an address of 1125 Ocean Avenue, Lakewood, New Jersey 08701, Attn: Daniela Graca, the sum of TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($250,000.00) (“Initial Deposit”) in immediately available funds as a good faith deposit. The Initial Deposit and all interest earned on any of the foregoing, shall be collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Deposit”. At Buyer’s discretion, Escrow Holder shall place the Deposit in one or more government insured interest-bearing accounts satisfactory to Seller and Buyer (which shall have no penalty for early withdrawal), and shall not commingle the Deposit with any funds of Escrow Holder or any other person or entity. If Closing occurs in accordance with this Agreement, the Deposit shall be applied against the Purchase Price. The Deposit shall be returned to Buyer if (y) Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.5 or Section 12 below or (z) Escrow fails to close due to (i) Seller’s breach of this Agreement or (ii) the failure of a condition to close under Section 4.2 (other than a failure of Buyer to deliver funds or instruments under Section 4.2.2 or a breach by Buyer under Section 4.2.4 or the occurrence of an event under Section 4.2.6 with respect to Buyer); otherwise, the Deposit shall be deemed earned by and released to Seller pursuant to Section 3.3 below if the Agreement terminates for any other reason. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by either Seller or Buyer for any reason other than pursuant to Section 6.5, Escrow Holder is authorized to deliver the Deposit to the party hereto entitled to same pursuant to the terms hereof on or before the fifth (5^th) Business Day following receipt by Escrow Holder and the non-terminating party of written notice of such termination from the terminating party, unless the other party hereto notifies Escrow Holder, in good faith, that it disputes the right of the other party to receive the Deposit. In such event, Escrow Holder may either disburse the Deposit in accordance with a jointly executed instruction letter from Seller and Buyer or, if no such instruction letter is received within ten (10) Business Days after the Escrow Holder’s receipt of the original letter identifying the dispute, interplead the Deposit into a

court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which the Deposit has been deposited. All attorneys’ fees and costs and Escrow Holder’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with such interpleader shall be assessed against the party that is not awarded the Deposit, or if the Deposit is distributed in part to both parties, then in the inverse proportion of such distribution. As used in this Agreement, “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday on which commercial banks are authorized or required to be closed for business in the State of California, New York or Tennessee.

3.2 Remainder of Purchase Price. On or before the Closing Date, Buyer shall deposit into Escrow immediately available funds in an amount which, when added to the Deposit, will equal the Purchase Price plus any additional amounts necessary to cover costs and/or prorations under this Agreement.

3.3 Buyer Default; Liquidated Damages. SELLER AND BUYER AGREE THAT, IF THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE PROPERTY IS NOT COMPLETED AND THIS AGREEMENT TERMINATES BECAUSE BUYER DEFAULTS UNDER OR BREACHES THIS AGREEMENT (AND FAILS TO CURE ANY SUCH BREACH OR DEFAULT WITHIN THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER WRITTEN NOTICE THEREOF FROM SELLER, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO BUYER’S OBLIGATION TO DELIVER THE PURCHASE PRICE TO ESCROW HOLDER, FOR WHICH NO NOTICE OR CURE SHALL BE AVAILABLE), THE PORTION OF THE DEPOSIT THEN DEPOSITED WITH ESCROW HOLDER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE PAID TO SELLER UPON TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND RETAINED BY SELLER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND AS SELLER’S SOLE REMEDY AT LAW OR IN EQUITY. SELLER AND BUYER AGREE THAT, UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT, ACTUAL DAMAGES MAY BE DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN AND THE PORTION OF THE DEPOSIT THEN DEPOSITED WITH ESCROW HOLDER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES THAT WILL BE INCURRED BY SELLER IF BUYER DEFAULTS UNDER OR BREACHES THIS AGREEMENT AND FAILS TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, IF BUYER SHALL REMAIN READY, WILLING AND ABLE TO CLOSE ON THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO RIGHT TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY BREACH OR DEFAULT BY BUYER THAT (I) IS NOT CAPABLE OF CURE AFTER THE FACT BY BUYER, (II) DOES NOT MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT SELLER, THE PROPERTY OR ANY TENANT UNDER ANY LEASE, (III) DOES NOT DELAY THE CLOSING BEYOND THE OUTSIDE CLOSING DATE AND (IV) DOES NOT RESULT IN THE SELLER INCURRING ANY ADDITIONAL COSTS OR EXPENSES THAT ARE NOT REIMBURSED BY BUYER UPON DEMAND.

SELLER’S INITIALS: ________ BUYER’S INITIALS: ________

3.4 Seller Default; Specific Performance. If Seller fails to consummate the sale of the Property pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise materially defaults on its obligations

hereunder at or prior to Closing for any reason except failure by Buyer to perform hereunder, or if prior to Closing any one or more of Seller’s representations or warranties are breached in any material respect, and such default or breach is not cured by the earlier of (x) the third (3rd) Business Day after written notice thereof from Buyer or (y) the Closing Date (except no notice or cure period shall apply if Seller fails to consummate the sale of the Property hereunder as of the Closing Date), Buyer may (a) terminate this Agreement by giving Seller timely written notice of such termination prior to or at Closing and recover the Deposit and any and all Buyer’s Costs (as hereinafter defined) incurred as of the date of such termination, (b) enforce specific performance to consummate the sale of the Property hereunder, or (c) waive said failure or breach and proceed to Closing without any reduction in the Purchase Price. Buyer specifically waives the right to file any lis pendens or any lien against the Property unless and until it has irrevocably elected to seek specific performance of this Agreement and has filed and is diligently pursuing an action seeking such remedy or unless Seller fails to pay, within ten (10) days after receipt of written demand therefor, the amounts due to Buyer hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement if Buyer fails to deliver to Seller written notice of its intent to file a claim or assert a cause of action for specific performance against Seller on or before ten (10) Business Days following the earlier of the Outside Closing Date or the expiration of Seller’s cure period or, having given such notice, fails to file a lawsuit asserting such claim or cause of action in the county in which the Property is located within sixty (60) days following the earlier of the Outside Closing Date or the expiration of Seller’s cure period. Buyer’s remedies shall be limited to those described in this Section 3.4 and Section 13. If, however, the equitable remedy of specific performance is not available, Buyer may seek any other right or remedy available at law or in equity; provided, however, that in no event shall Seller’s liability exceed $175,000.00 plus Buyer’s Costs and any amounts payable under Section 13. For purposes of this Agreement, “Buyer’s Costs” shall mean the actual third party out of pocket expenses incurred by Buyer and paid (A) to Buyer’s attorneys (and specifically including in-house attorneys of affiliates of Buyer, assuming an hourly rate of $350.00) in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or the proposed purchase of the Property, and (B) to third party consultants in connection with the performance of examinations, inspections and/or investigations pursuant to Section 6; provided that such Buyer’s Costs shall, in all events, be capped at a maximum of $75,000.

4. ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS.

4.1 Opening of Escrow. Within three (3) Business Days after the mutual execution and delivery of this Agreement, the parties shall open an escrow (“Escrow”) with Escrow Holder in order to consummate the purchase and sale in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof by (i) Buyer delivering to Escrow Holder the Initial Deposit and (ii) Buyer and Seller delivering to Escrow Holder their respective executed counterparts of this Agreement (collectively, the “Opening of Escrow”). Escrow Holder shall deliver written confirmation of the date of the Opening of Escrow to the parties in the manner set forth in Section 17 of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be countersigned by Escrow Holder and the provisions hereof shall constitute joint primary escrow instructions to Escrow Holder; provided, however, that the parties shall execute such additional instructions as requested by Escrow Holder not inconsistent with the provisions hereof.

4.2 Conditions to Close. Escrow shall not close unless and until the following conditions precedent and contingencies have been satisfied or waived in writing by the party for whose benefit the conditions have been included (such party being the party that benefits from the actions of the other party in performing or satisfying, or that has the right under this Agreement to require the other party to perform or satisfy, the conditions set forth below):

4.2.1 All contingencies described in Section 6 below have either been satisfied or waived by Buyer.

4.2.2 All funds and instruments described in Sections 3 and 10 have been delivered to Escrow Holder by the applicable party responsible therefor, and Seller and Buyer have, in good faith, approved, executed and delivered a settlement statement reflecting the Purchase Price, all prorations, and all closing costs as required under this Agreement (the “Settlement Statement”).

4.2.3 The Title Company has irrevocably committed to Buyer in writing to issue, upon payment of the applicable premiums, an ALTA 2006 extended owner’s policy of title insurance, in form and content acceptable to Buyer insuring Buyer’s fee simple title to the Real Property in an amount equal to the Purchase Price subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

4.2.4 Seller and Buyer shall each have materially performed, observed and complied with all covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement to be performed, observed and/or complied with by such party prior to, or as of, the Closing.

4.2.5 Seller’s representations and warranties contained herein shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, except for representations and warranties made as of, or limited by, a specific date, which will be true and correct in all material respects as of the specified date or as limited by the specified date.

4.2.6 There shall exist no pending or threatened actions, suits, arbitrations, claims, attachments, proceedings, assignments for the benefit of creditors, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceedings, against the other party that would materially and adversely affect that party’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

4.3 Recordation and Transfer. Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 above, Escrow Holder shall transfer the Property as follows:

4.3.1 Subject to the election of the parties to close based on gap coverage provided by the Escrow Holder, in which case the Deed will be recorded after Closing, cause the Deed (as such term is hereinafter defined) to be recorded with the Register’s Office of Hamilton County, Tennessee;

4.3.2 Deliver to the parties entitled thereto the other Closing Documents (as hereinafter defined); and

4.3.3 Disburse all funds deposited with Escrow Holder by Buyer in payment of the Purchase Price for the Property (subject to applicable prorations and adjustments

as provided herein) to (i) Seller by wire transfer pursuant to instructions to be delivered by Seller to Escrow Holder, (ii) for closing costs, to the party entitled thereto, and (iii) any remainder to Buyer, all as set forth in the Settlement Statement.

5. CLOSING.

5.1 Generally. Escrow shall close upon the recordation of the Deed (or if the parties elect to close on the basis of gap coverage from the Escrow Holder, then at such time as the Escrow Holder is otherwise prepared to record the Deed and all the conditions associated with the recording of the Deed have been satisfied) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (“Date of Closing”, “Closing Date”, “Closing” or “Close of Escrow”). The Close of Escrow shall occur on a date selected by Buyer, and reasonably approved by Seller, but in no event later than the earlier to occur of (a) the date that is thirty (30) days after the date hereof or (b) March 20, 2014 (“Outside Closing Date”) at the office of Escrow Holder (or such other location as may be mutually agreed upon by Seller and Buyer), unless otherwise extended (i) by operation of Sections 6.3 or 12 below, or (ii) by written agreement between Buyer and Seller. The foregoing notwithstanding, the parties shall not be required to physically attend Closing, it being understood that the Close of Escrow can proceed on the basis of written instructions to the Escrow Holder.

6. BUYER’S REVIEW.

6.1 Delivery of Documents. Buyer and Seller have previously executed and delivered that certain Limited Access Agreement dated as of February 3, 2014 between Buyer and Seller (the “Limited Access Agreement”), pursuant to which Seller has delivered (or in the case of the Leases made available) to Buyer all documents pertaining to the Property that have been prepared by, for or at the request of Seller or are in the possession or control of, or are reasonably available to, Seller, including, without limitation, the documents listed on Exhibit “C” attached hereto (collectively with the items previously delivered under the Limited Access Agreement and the Additional Delivery Items (as hereinafter defined), the “Seller Deliveries”) other than those items specifically identified on the attached Exhibit “C” as having not yet been delivered (the “Additional Delivery Items”), which Limited Access Agreement has terminated upon execution of this Agreement. Seller shall, at the sole expense of Seller, deliver to Buyer (in electronic format to the extent feasible) the Additional Delivery Items in accordance with the timeframes set forth on Exhibit “C.” The foregoing notwithstanding, the Seller Deliveries expressly exclude, and Seller shall have no obligation to provide, any information constituting the Excluded Documents, as defined in the Limited Access Agreement.

6.2 Access. Commencing upon the execution of this Agreement by Buyer and Seller, Seller shall permit (or cause to be permitted) Buyer or Buyer’s agents, employees, contractors, lenders and representatives access to the Property for purposes of any non-intrusive physical or environmental test, study or inspection of the Property and, to the extent copies were not provided to Buyer by Seller pursuant to Section 6.1, review and copying of Seller’s books and records relating to the Property and any of the documents described in Section 6.1 above, and other matters necessary in the discretion of Buyer to evaluate and analyze the feasibility of the Property for Buyer’s intended use thereof. Such permission described above shall be in addition to the permissions previously provided to Buyer and the associated inspections previously undertaken by Buyer under the Limited

Access Agreement, provided that all inspections occurring prior to the execution of this Agreement shall have been governed by the terms of the Limited Access Agreement. Buyer shall not conduct or authorize any physically intrusive testing of, on, or under the Property without first obtaining Seller’s consent (which may be via telephone or electronic mail) as to the timing and scope of work to be performed, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In addition, and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall have the right, without limitation, to disapprove any and all surveys, tests (including, without limitation, a Phase II environmental study of the Property), investigations and other matters that in Seller’s reasonable judgment could result in any injury to the Property or breach of any contract, or expose Seller to any losses or violation of applicable law, or otherwise adversely affect the Property or Seller’s interest therein. Seller’s decision with respect to the granting or withholding of Seller’s consent shall be communicated to Buyer within 24 hours. No consent by Seller to any such activity shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by Seller of the provisions hereof or assumption of liability or risk by Seller. Prior to any entry Buyer shall provide Seller with at least 24 hours prior notice (which may be via telephonic or electronic mail, but without requirement for concurrent overnight delivery) and Seller shall have the right to have a representative of Seller present during any entry onto the Property by Buyer. All notices to, and requests for Seller’s consent hereunder, shall be made to Phil Payonk, telephone # 336-553-1700 and email address ppayonk@hrpliving.com. Buyer shall not contact any tenant of the Property without the prior written approval of Seller. In the event that Seller does consent to Buyer’s contact with any tenant of the Property, Seller shall have the right to have a representative of Seller present during any such interview. In all events, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize disruption to tenants at the Property in connection with Buyer’s or its consultants’ activities pursuant to this Agreement. Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that Buyer or Buyer’s representatives may communicate with any governmental authority or quasi-governmental authority for the purpose of gathering information in connection with the Property or the Seller, or the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Buyer shall maintain and cause its agents, contractors, representatives and consultants that will enter the Property prior to the Closing Date to maintain (a) comprehensive general liability insurance (“CGL”) with coverages of not less than $1,000,000.00 for injury or death to any one person and $2,000,000.00 for injury or death to more than one person and $1,000,000.00 with respect to property damage, by water or otherwise, and (b) worker’s compensation insurance for all of their respective employees that will enter the Property in accordance with the law of the state in which the Property is located. To the extent not previously delivered to Seller pursuant to the Limited Access Agreement, Buyer shall deliver to Seller proof of the insurance coverages required pursuant to this Agreement (in the form of certificate(s) of insurance) prior to Buyer’s or its consultants’ entry onto the Property. Such insurance shall name Seller and Property Manager (if requested in writing by Seller) as additional insured parties and shall be with companies authorized to issue insurance in the state in which the Real Property is located. Buyer acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth herein and in the documents delivered at the Closing, Seller makes no warranties or representations regarding the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of Seller’s environmental reports or other third-party produced materials or other documents relating to the Property made available to Buyer (collectively, the “Reports”), and Buyer shall have no claim against Seller based upon the Reports. Further, Buyer shall have no right to rely on any third party reports delivered by Seller to Buyer, unless Buyer has received the third party report provider’s express permission to rely thereon, at Buyer’s sole expense. At Seller’s request, upon termination of this Agreement and payment by Seller to Buyer of the actual

costs thereof, Buyer agrees to provide Seller (without any representation or warranty whatsoever and without any liability with respect to the content thereof, and subject to any confidentiality requirements of the provider thereof) with copies of all environmental and engineering reports obtained by Buyer with respect to the Property.

6.3 Title and Survey.

6.3.1 Within three (3) days after the Opening of Escrow, Seller shall cause Escrow Holder to issue to Buyer a current commitment for an owner’s policy of title insurance in the amount of the Purchase Price on an ALTA 2006 policy through First American Title Insurance Company together with copies of all documents of record referenced therein (collectively, the “Title Commitment”) at Seller’s sole cost and expense (as provided in Section 11 below). Buyer shall have until 5:00 PM (east coast time) on February 26, 2014 (“Title Objection Period”) in which to notify Seller in writing of any objections Buyer has, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, to any matters shown on the Title Commitment, the survey provided by Seller and any Survey obtained by Buyer pursuant to Section 6.3.2 below (“Title Objection Notice”). All objections raised by Buyer in the manner herein provided are hereafter called “Objections.” Subject in all events to the limitations set forth in the penultimate sentence of this Section 6.3.1 which shall control, Seller shall make reasonable efforts to remedy or remove all Objections (or agree irrevocably in writing to remedy or remove all such Objections at or prior to Closing) within three (3) Business Days following Buyer’s delivery of the Title Objection Notice (“Seller’s Cure Period”). In the event Seller is unable to remedy or cause the removal of any Objections (or fails during Seller’s Cure Period to agree irrevocably to do so at or prior to Closing) within Seller’s Cure Period, then Buyer, within three (3) Business Days after the expiration of Seller’s Cure Period (“Buyer’s Termination Period”), shall deliver to Seller written notice electing, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, to either (i) terminate this Agreement, or (ii) unconditionally waive any such Objections, failing which Buyer shall conclusively be deemed to have elected (i) above. Any new title information received by Seller or Buyer after the expiration of the Title Objection Period, Seller’s Cure Period or Buyer’s Termination Period, as applicable, from a supplemental title report which is not the result of the acts or omissions of Buyer or its agents, contractors or invitees (each, a “New Title Matter”) shall be subject to the same procedure provided in this Section 6.3.1 (and the Date of Closing shall be extended commensurately if the Closing would have occurred but for those procedures being implemented for a New Title Matter), except that Buyer’s Title Objection Period, Seller’s Cure Period and Buyer’s Termination Period for any New Title Matters shall be three (3) Business Days each. Close of Escrow shall be delayed as needed to accommodate such additional time periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall have no obligation to cure any Objections except (i) financing liens of an ascertainable amount created by, under or through Seller, which liens Seller shall cause to be released at or prior to Closing (with Seller having the right to apply the Purchase Price or a portion thereof for such purpose), and Seller shall deliver the Property free and clear of any such financing liens, (ii) any exceptions or encumbrances to title which are created by, under or through Seller after the date hereof without Buyer’s consent, and (iii) any Objections which Seller has specifically agreed, in writing, to cure. The term “Permitted Exceptions” shall mean: the specific exceptions set forth in or reflected on the Title Commitment or Survey approved by Buyer; other exceptions in the Title Commitment or matters reflected on the Survey to which Buyer has not raised an Objection as provided herein or has subsequently

If, during the Due Diligence Period, Buyer determines in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion that the Property is not acceptable for any reason whatsoever, Buyer shall have the right, by giving written notice to Seller on or before the last day of the Due Diligence Period, to terminate this Agreement. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless and defend Seller from and against any actual claims, liabilities, liens, cause of action, expenses, costs, or damages (including reasonable attorneys’ fees including the cost of in-house counsel and appeals but expressly excluding consequential, special, punitive, speculative or incidental damages) resulting from the inspection of the Property prior to the Closing Date by Buyer or Buyer’s contractors, employees, representatives, or agents; provided, however, that Buyer shall not be (i) obligated to provide such indemnity for losses arising because of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or Seller’s affiliates, parent and subsidiary entities, successors, assigns, partners, managers, members, employees, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, counsel, representatives, agents, and property manager, or (ii) liable to Seller solely as a result of the discovery of a pre-existing condition on the Property to the extent the activities of Buyer or its consultants do not materially exacerbate such condition.

Any provision to the contrary herein notwithstanding, the provisions of the previous two sentences shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason for a period of three (3) months and control

over any provisions to the contrary herein; provided however that if Seller shall have provided written notice to Buyer with reasonable detail of a specified repair Buyer is required to make hereunder, then such period shall be extended until such repair is complete.

6.5 Buyer’s Termination Right. If Buyer exercises the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Sections 6.3 (including without limitation for any New Title Matter) or 6.4 hereof, this Agreement shall terminate as of the date the termination notice is given by Buyer (except as to such matters that are expressly specified to survive the termination of this Agreement), and Escrow Holder shall return the Deposit to Buyer If Buyer does not exercise the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Sections 6.3 or Section 6.4 hereof, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the Deposit shall become non-refundable except as provided in Section 3.1 above.

6.6 Contracts. On or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing as to which of the Contracts Buyer intends to assume and which Contracts Buyer wishes for Seller to terminate at Closing, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion; provided however that Buyer must assume Contracts that can not be terminated without payment of a termination fee or penalty. Seller shall notify the vendors under those Contract(s) which Buyer has not agreed to assume and, provided that Closing occurs hereunder, such Contracts shall terminate effective as of the Date of Closing. Seller shall cooperate with Buyer, both before and after the Close of Escrow, to obtain any approvals or consents required to assign any Contracts to Buyer, including, without limitation, sending requests for such approvals or consents to the party or parties whose consent or approval is required. If Seller fails to timely send any such request for approval or consent, Buyer may do so in Seller’s name. Seller’s obligations under this Section 6.6 shall survive the Close of Escrow.

The parties acknowledge and agree that any referral fees due to apartment locators for any Leases executed after the date of this Agreement shall be paid by the party that owns the Property when such referral fee obligation is incurred; provided, however that with respect to any such fee to be paid by Buyer, the fee is pursuant to a Contract previously provided to Buyer or Seller shall have, to the extent Buyer’s approval of any such Lease is required, provided written notice to Buyer prior to the execution of the Lease that such fee will be due and payable. Seller may request from the applicable utility company(ies) that all utility meters be read on the day before the Closing Date and Seller shall credit against the Purchase Price (or furnish evidence of prior payment) an amount equal to all unpaid utility charges incurred or accrued to the reading of such utility meters.

With respect to any rental unit that is vacated on or before five (5) days prior to Close of Escrow that Seller has not placed in a “rent ready” condition before the Walk Through Date, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in the amount of $750.00 per unit. As used herein, “‘rent ready’ condition” means Seller’s practice and procedures, as of the date of this Agreement, for placing units in “rent ready” condition. Nothing contained in this Section 9.4 shall be construed as limiting Buyer’s rights and Seller’s obligations under the other provisions of this Agreement.

10. CLOSING DOCUMENTS.

Each party shall deliver any additional documents that the other party or Escrow Holder may reasonably require for the proper consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that no such additional document shall expand any obligation, covenant, representation or warranty of such party or result in any new or additional obligation, covenant, representation or warranty of such party under this Agreement beyond those expressly set forth in this Agreement.

10.4 Closing Documents. All documents to be delivered to Escrow Holder pursuant to this Section 10 shall hereinafter be referred to as “Closing Documents”.

10.5 Possession. Upon Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer sole possession of the Property, subject to the rights of tenants in possession (as residential tenants only) under the Leases.

11. COSTS. Seller shall pay the cost of the Title Commitment and any updates thereto, the cost of a standard ALTA Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (the “Title Policy”), the costs of any endorsements to the Title Policy to the extent that such endorsements are necessary to cure any Objections that Seller has elected or is required to cure, the cost of preparation of Seller’s Closing Documents, and all costs relating to the proposed signage license/permit for the Property’s entrance sign described above. Buyer shall pay all real estate transfer taxes and documentary stamps, the cost for any extended ALTA title insurance coverage, if desired, the cost of any endorsements to the title policy (if requested by Buyer), the cost of preparation of Buyer’s Closing Documents, and the cost of any updated survey, if desired.

Each party shall pay its own attorney’s fees and closing costs.

12. CASUALTY OR CONDEMNATION. During the period from the Opening of Escrow through Closing, all risk of loss from fire or other casualty or condemnation shall be borne by Seller. If, before the Closing Date, (i) the improvements on the Real Property are materially damaged by any casualty, or (ii) proceedings are commenced for the taking by exercise of the power of eminent domain of all or a material part of the Property, Buyer shall have the right, by giving notice to Seller within twenty (20) days after Seller gives written notice of the casualty or condemnation to Buyer, to terminate this Agreement, in which event this Agreement shall automatically terminate and the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer. If, before the Closing Date, (a) the improvements on the Real Property are damaged by any casualty, but not in a material manner, (b) proceedings are commenced for the taking by exercise of the power of eminent domain of less than such a material part of the Property, or (c) Buyer has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding sentence but Buyer does not exercise such right, then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and, on the Closing Date, one of the following shall occur, as applicable: (1) in the event of a casualty, Buyer shall receive (w) a credit against the cash balance of the Purchase Price payable at Closing to the extent of payments received by or on behalf of Seller prior to the Closing Date under any applicable insurance policy or policies in effect with respect to the Property (to the extent that such payments have not been reasonably expended in connection with the repair of any such casualty and do not exceed $50,000 in the aggregate unless otherwise agreed by Buyer or unless such repairs are, in Seller’s reasonable judgment, necessary to preserve the Property or protect the health, safety or welfare of Tenants under any Leases or of any visitors or invitees on the Property), (x) an assignment of Seller's rights to any payments which may be payable subsequent to the Closing Date under any applicable insurance policy or policies in effect with respect to the Property (or, if Seller’s insurer does not permit such policy and/or payments to be assigned to Buyer, Seller shall promptly remit such funds to Buyer after receipt of any such amounts), (y) an assignment of Seller's rights to payments with respect to rents due subsequent to the Closing Date under any rental insurance policy or policies with respect to the Property (or, if Seller’s insurer does not permit such policy and/or payments to be assigned to Buyer, Seller shall promptly remit such funds to Buyer after receipt of any such amounts), and (z) a credit against the cash balance of the Purchase Price payable at the Closing in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the deductibles with respect to all such insurance policies, but there shall be no other credit against or reduction in the Purchase Price attributable to such casualty; or (2) the condemnation award (or, if not theretofore received, the right to receive such award) payable on account of the taking shall be transferred to Buyer. Seller shall give notice to Buyer immediately after the occurrence of any damage to the improvements on the Real Property by any casualty or the commencement of any eminent domain proceedings. Buyer shall have a period of twenty (20) days after Seller has given the notice to Buyer required by this Section 12 to make the determination as to whether to terminate this Agreement. If necessary, the Closing Date shall be postponed until Seller has given the notice to Buyer required by this Section 12 and the period of twenty (20) days described in this Section 12 has expired. For purposes hereof, material shall mean, in the event of a casualty, the cost of repair of such damage to a condition substantially equivalent to that immediately prior to such casualty equals or exceeds two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price and in the event of a condemnation, such taking shall have a materially adverse effect on the use or value of, access to, or parking at, the Property or otherwise affects more than five percent (5%) of the square footage of the improvements located on the Real Property or ten (10) or more apartment

units. Seller’s obligation to remit any funds collected by Seller that are to be remitted to Buyer pursuant to this Section 12 shall survive Closing.

13. ATTORNEYS’ FEES. In any action to enforce or interpret the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of its attorneys’ fees and costs.

14. ASSIGNMENT. Buyer may not assign Buyer's rights and obligations under this Agreement (which shall include its rights in and to the Deposit) to a third party (“Assignee”) without Seller’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Buyer shall have the one-time right to transfer all of its rights under this Agreement to an Assignee without Seller’s prior consent (but with notice to Seller of such assignment) so long as Buyer or an affiliate of Buyer controls, or is under control with, such Assignee entity. Any permitted assignment shall be on the further condition that the Assignee expressly assumes the obligations of Buyer hereunder in a written agreement, which agreement will also set forth the Assignee's taxpayer identification number. Buyer shall promptly provide Seller with a copy of any such written assignment. Any attempt to assign the Agreement other than in accordance with this Section 14 shall be null and void and considered a default hereunder. Notwithstanding any such permitted assignment, Buyer shall remain liable for the performance of its obligations hereunder to the extent of any default of Assignee thereof. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 14, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of Seller and Buyer (including a permitted Assignee), and no third party (including, without limitation, subsequent owners of the Property) is intended to be a beneficiary of or have the right to enforce this Agreement.

15. WAIVER. No waiver of any breach of any agreement or provision contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of any other agreement or provision herein contained. No extension of time for the performance of any obligation or act shall be deemed an extension of time for the performance of any other obligation or act.

16. GOVERNING LAW; TIME. This Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the State in which the Real Property is located (without regard to the principles thereof governing conflicts of laws). All periods of time referred to in this Agreement shall include all business and non-business days unless such period of time specifies business days; provided, however, that if the date or last date to perform any act or give a notice with respect to the Agreement shall fall on a day that is not a business day, such act or notice may be timely performed or given on the next succeeding business day.

17. 1031 PROVISIONS. Upon Seller's request to Buyer, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 17, Buyer agrees to reasonably cooperate with Seller so that Seller's transfer of the Property to Buyer shall, at Seller's election, be accomplished in a manner enabling the transfer to qualify as part of a like-kind exchange of property by Seller within the meaning of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (a “Like-Kind Exchange”). Seller may enter into a like-kind exchange agreement with a third party exchange accommodation titleholder or qualified intermediary and, in connection therewith, assign its rights (but not its obligations) under this Agreement to said third party. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer’s reasonable cooperation with Seller in the Like-Kind Exchange shall be without any cost, expense or liability

to Buyer and without reduction or alteration of the rights of Buyer under this Agreement and with respect to Seller, and Buyer shall not be required to undertake any liability or obligation. Such Like-Kind Exchange shall in no event extend the Closing Date or be a condition to Closing. As part of such Like-Kind Exchange, Seller shall convey the Property directly to Buyer and Buyer shall not be obligated to acquire any other property or interests as part of such Like-Kind Exchange. Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Buyer harmless and defend Buyer from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, liabilities, losses, costs, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and court costs) of any kind and nature in connection with the Like-Kind Exchange, including without limitation Buyer's cooperation with Seller to accomplish the Like-Kind Exchange for benefit of Seller. Nothing herein shall release Seller of any of the obligations or liabilities under this Agreement. The terms of this Section 17 shall survive Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement.

18. CONFIDENTIALITY. Prior to the Closing, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no disclosure of information not already in the public domain occurs regarding this transaction or the “Information” (as defined below); provided, however, such disclosures may be made (a) to the parties’ respective members, consultants, contractors, engineers, partners, investors, employees, agents, representatives, brokers, advisors and attorneys (individually, a “Representative” and, collectively, “Representatives”), provided each Representative shall be instructed to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (and Buyer hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Seller from any failure of such Representatives to comply with such terms), or (b) as required by applicable law. As used in this Agreement, the term “Information” shall mean any of the following: (i) all information and documents in any way relating to the Property, the operation thereof or the sale thereof, including, without limitation, the terms of sale, the contractual terms set forth in this Agreement, all Leases and Contracts furnished to, or otherwise made available for review by, Buyer or Buyer’s Representatives, or by Seller or Seller’s Representatives, and (ii) all analyses, compilations, data, studies, reports or other information or documents prepared or obtained by Buyer or Buyer's Representatives containing or based on, in whole or in part, the information or documents described in the preceding clause (i), or otherwise reflecting their review or investigation of the Property. Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, if either party asserts a claim of breach alleging a violation of this Section 18, the party asserting such claim shall carry the burden of proof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that Buyer and its Representatives may communicate with any governmental authority or quasi-governmental authority for the purpose of gathering information in connection with the Property or Seller, or the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

19. NOTICES. All notices required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and sent by overnight delivery service (such as Federal Express), in which case notice shall be deemed given on the day after the date sent, or by personal delivery, in which case notice shall be deemed given on the date received, or by certified mail, in which case notice shall be deemed given three (3) days after the date sent, or by electronic mail (with copy by overnight delivery service), in which case notice shall be deemed given on the date sent, to the appropriate address set forth below or at such other place or places as either Buyer or Seller may, from time to time, respectively, designate in a written notice given to the other in the manner described above.

Buyer shall not cause or allow this Agreement, nor any memorandum or other evidence hereof, to be recorded or become a public record without Seller's prior written consent, which consent may be withheld at Seller's sole discretion; provided however that Buyer shall be entitled to record any lis pendens or any lien against the Property as and when expressly permitted under Section 3.4 above. If Buyer records this Agreement or any other memorandum or evidence thereof, Buyer shall be in default of its obligations under this Agreement.

21. COUNTERPARTS; COPIES. This Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

22. AUTHORITY. The individual(s) executing this Agreement on behalf of each party hereto hereby represent and warrant that he/she has the capacity, with full power and authority, to bind such party to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

23. RECORD ACCESS AND RETENTION. At Buyer’s request, Seller shall promptly provide to Buyer (at Buyer’s expense) copies of, or shall provide Buyer reasonable access to, such factual information as may be reasonably requested by Buyer, and in the possession or control of Seller, or its property manager or accountants, to enable Buyer’s auditor to conduct an audit, in accordance with Rule 3-14 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X, of the income statements of the Property for the year to date of the year in which Closing occurs plus the two (2) immediately preceding calendar years (provided, however, that other than fees paid or payable to Seller, a Seller affiliate or a third party for on-site property management, such audit shall not include an audit of asset management fees internally allocated by Seller (as opposed to paid to a third party) or interest expenses attributable to the Seller). Buyer shall be responsible for all out-of-pocket costs associated with any such audit. Seller shall reasonably cooperate (at no cost to Seller) with Buyer’s auditor in the conduct of such audit. In addition, to the extent available Seller agrees to provide to Buyer or any affiliate of Buyer, if requested by such auditor, historical financial statements for the Property, including (without limitation) income and balance sheet data for the Property, whether required before or after Closing. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) Buyer or its designated independent or other auditor may audit Seller’s operating statements of the Property, at Buyer’s expense, and, to the extent available, Seller shall provide such documentation as Buyer or its auditor may reasonably request in order to complete such audit, and (ii) Seller shall, to the extent available, furnish to Buyer such financial and other information as may be reasonably required by Buyer or any affiliate of Buyer to make any required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other governmental authority. Seller shall maintain its records for use under this Section 23 for a period of not less than nine (9) months after the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing.

24. CONTRACT CONSIDERATION. The parties have bargained for and expressly agree that the rights and obligations of each party contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Buyer’s obligation to deliver the Independent Contract Consideration (as hereinafter defined) to Escrow Holder, constitute sufficient consideration for the other party’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, including without limitation, Buyer’s exclusive right to inspect and purchase the Property pursuant to this Agreement and all contingencies and conditions of Closing for the benefit of Buyer set forth in this Agreement. Buyer shall deliver to Escrow Holder, in addition to and together with Buyer’s delivery to Escrow Holder of the Initial Deposit, the sum of ONE HUNDRED AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($100.00) (“Independent Contract Consideration”). Escrow Holder shall release

and deliver the Independent Contract Consideration to Seller immediately following receipt from Buyer without the need for further instruction from any party. The Independent Contract Consideration is in addition to and independent of any other consideration or payment provided in this Agreement, is non‑refundable, is fully earned, and shall be retained by Seller notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement.

25. JURY TRIAL WAIVER. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO WHICH SELLER AND/OR BUYER MAY BE PARTIES ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR IN ANY WAY PERTAINING TO, THIS AGREEMENT. THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY THE PARTIES AND EACH HEREBY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO THE OTHER THAT NO REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT OR OPINION HAVE BEEN MADE BY ANY INDIVIDUAL TO INDUCE THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR TO IN ANY WAY MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT.

27. EQUAL PARTICIPATION. Seller and Buyer have participated equally in the preparation of this Agreement, and, therefore, this Agreement and each provision hereof shall not be construed in favor of or against any party to this Agreement by reason of one party’s being deemed to have prepared this Agreement or imposed such provision.

28. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence under this Agreement.

29. SURVIVAL. Except for (a) any other provisions in this Agreement that by their express terms survive the termination or Closing; (b) any payment obligation of Buyer under this Agreement; and (c) any payment obligation of Seller under this Agreement (the foregoing (a), (b) and (c) referred to herein as the "Survival Provisions"), none of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and if the Agreement is not so terminated, all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (other than the Survival Provisions, which shall survive the Closing) shall be merged into the Closing documents and shall not survive Closing.
