Agent  shall  have the right at any time to deposit  the  Deposit  and  interest

severally  shall  indemnify and hold Escrow Agent  harmless from and against all
costs, claims and expenses,  including  reasonable  attorney's fees, incurred in

in willful  disregard of this Contract or involving gross negligence on the part
of the Escrow Agent.

Contract,  which shall constitute the sole instructions to Escrow Agent.  Escrow
Agent shall execute the  signature  page for Escrow Agent  attached  hereto with
respect to the  provisions  of this Section  2.3;  provided,  however,  that (a)
Escrow  Agent's  signature  hereon  shall not be a  prerequisite  to the binding
nature of this Contract on Purchaser and Seller, and the same shall become fully
effective  upon  execution by  Purchaser  and Seller,  and (b) the  signature of
Escrow Agent will not be necessary to amend any provision of this Contract other
than this Section 2.3.

referred to in Section 3.1 appear  unsatisfactory to Purchaser for any reason or
if Purchaser  elects not to proceed with the  transaction  contemplated  by this

and absolute  discretion,  then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this
Contract by giving  written  notice to that effect to Seller and Escrow Agent on
or before 5:00 p.m.  (in the time zone in which the Escrow  Agent is located) on
the date of expiration of the Feasibility  Period.  If Purchaser  exercises such
right to terminate, this Contract shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect subject to and except for Purchaser's  liability  pursuant to Section 3.3
and any other  provision of this Contract which survives such  termination,  and
Escrow Agent shall forthwith return the Initial Deposit to Purchaser (subject to
Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party Reports and
information and Materials provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return
of the Initial  Deposit).  If  Purchaser  fails to provide  Seller with  written
notice of  termination  prior to the  expiration  of the  Feasibility  Period in
strict accordance with the notice provisions of this Contract, Purchaser's right
to  terminate  under  this  Section  3.2 shall be  permanently  waived  and this
Contract shall remain in full force and effect,  the Deposit (including both the
Initial  Deposit and,  when  delivered in  accordance  with Section  2.2.2,  the
Additional  Deposit)  shall be  non-refundable,  and  Purchaser's  obligation to
purchase the Property shall be non-contingent and unconditional  except only for
satisfaction of the conditions expressly stated in Section 8.1.

Purchaser  shall give notice to Seller a reasonable time prior to entry onto the
Property and shall permit  Seller to have a  representative  present  during all
Inspections  conducted  at  the  Property.  Purchaser  shall  have  access  to a
reasonable  number of vacant and occupied units at the Property,  subject to the
rights of Tenants  under the Leases and  applicable  law. All  information  made
available by Seller to Purchaser in accordance with this Contract or obtained by
Purchaser  in the course of its  Inspections  shall be  treated as  confidential
information  by  Purchaser,  and,  prior  to the  purchase  of the  Property  by
Purchaser,  Purchaser shall use its best efforts to prevent its Consultants from
divulging such  information to any unrelated  third parties except as reasonably
necessary  to third  parties  engaged by  Purchaser  for the limited  purpose of
analyzing and investigating such information for the purpose of consummating the
transaction  contemplated  by this Contract.  The provisions of this Section 3.3
shall survive the termination of this Contract,  and if not so terminated  shall
survive  (except for the  confidentiality  provisions  of this  Section 3.3) the
Closing and delivery of the Deed to Purchaser.

shall have the right,  without  limitation,  to disapprove  any and all entries,
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.  Purchaser shall use
best efforts to minimize disruption to Tenants in connection with Purchaser's or
its Consultants'  activities  pursuant to this Section. No consent by the Seller
to any such  activity  shall be  deemed  to  constitute  a waiver  by  Seller or
assumption of liability or risk by Seller.  Purchaser  hereby agrees to restore,
at  Purchaser's  sole  cost and  expense,  the  Property  to the same  condition
existing  immediately  prior to Purchaser's  exercise of its rights  pursuant to
this Article 3. Purchaser  shall maintain and cause its third party  consultants

3.5.2),  Seller  agrees to make the  documents  set forth on  Schedule  3.5 (the
"Materials")  available  at the  Property for review and copying by Purchaser at
Purchaser's sole cost and expense.  In the  alternative,  at Seller's option and
within  the  foregoing  5-day  period,  Seller  may  deliver  some or all of the
Materials to Purchaser,  or make the same available to Purchaser on a secure web
site  (Purchaser  agrees  that any item to be  delivered  by Seller  under  this
Contract shall be deemed  delivered to the extent available to Purchaser on such
secured  web site).  To the extent  that  Purchaser  determines  that any of the
Materials  have not been made  available or  delivered to Purchaser  pursuant to
this  Section  3.5.1,  Purchaser  shall  notify  Seller  and  Seller  shall  use
commercially  reasonable  efforts  to  deliver  the same to  Purchaser  within 5

will the Feasibility  Period be extended and Purchaser's  sole remedy will be to
terminate this Contract pursuant to Section 3.2.

3.5.2 .....In providing such information and Materials to Purchaser,  other than
Seller's Representations,  Seller makes no representation or warranty,  express,
written,  oral,  statutory,   or  implied,  and  all  such  representations  and
warranties are hereby  expressly  excluded and  disclaimed.  Any information and
Materials  provided by Seller to Purchaser  under the terms of this  Contract is
for  informational  purposes only and,  together with all  Third-Party  Reports,
shall be returned by Purchaser to Seller as a condition to return of the Deposit
to Purchaser (if Purchaser is otherwise entitled to such Deposit pursuant to the
terms of this Contract) if this Contract is terminated for any reason. Purchaser
shall not in any way be entitled to rely upon the  accuracy of such  information
and  Materials.  Purchaser  recognizes  and agrees that the  Materials and other
documents and information delivered or made available by Seller pursuant to this
Contract may not be complete or constitute  all of such  documents  which are in
Seller's  possession  or control,  but are those that are readily  available  to
Seller after  reasonable  inquiry to  ascertain  their  availability.  Purchaser
understands that,  although Seller will use commercially  reasonable  efforts to
locate and make  available  the  Materials  and other  documents  required to be
delivered or made available by Seller pursuant to this Contract,  Purchaser will
not rely on such  Materials or other  documents as being a complete and accurate
source of  information  with  respect to the  Property,  and will instead in all
instances rely  exclusively on its own Inspections and Consultants  with respect
to all  matters  which it deems  relevant to its  decision  to acquire,  own and
operate the Property.

3.5.3  .....The  provisions  of this  Section 3.5 shall  survive the Closing and
delivery of the Deed to Purchaser.

3.6 Property  Contracts.  On or before the expiration of the Feasibility Period,
Purchaser may deliver written notice to Seller (the "Property Contracts Notice")
specifying  any Property  Contracts with respect to which  Purchaser  desires to
have Seller  deliver  notices of  termination  at the Closing  (the  "Terminated
Contracts");  provided that (a) the  effective  date of such  termination  after
Closing shall be subject to the express terms of such Terminated Contracts,  (b)
if any such Property  Contract  cannot by its terms be  terminated,  it shall be
assumed by  Purchaser  and not be a Terminated  Contract,  and (c) to the extent
that any such Terminated  Contract  requires payment of a penalty or premium for
cancellation,  Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the payment of any such
cancellation  fees or  penalties.  If  Purchaser  fails to deliver the  Property
Contracts  Notice on or before the expiration of the Feasibility  Period,  there
shall be no  Terminated  Contracts  and  Purchaser  shall  assume  all  Property
Contracts at the Closing.

3.7 Rent Roll. In addition to the items set forth on Schedule 3.5, no later than
5 Business Days after the Effective Date,  Seller shall deliver to Purchaser (or
otherwise  make  available to Purchaser as provided  under Section 3.5.1) a rent

The Rent  Roll  shall  be part of the  Materials  for all  purposes  under  this
Contract and Seller makes no  representations  or warranties  regarding the Rent
Roll other than the express  representation  set forth in Section 6.1.7.  Seller
shall update the Rent Roll in accordance with Section 5.2.10.

such  delivery  set forth in this  Contract,  any  Materials,  Title  Documents,
Survey, or other item which this Contract  expressly  requires Seller to deliver
to Purchaser,  Purchaser  shall deliver written notice to Seller no later than 2
Business Days after such failure and the  expiration of the  Feasibility  Period
set forth in Section 3.1 shall be extended on a  day-for-day  basis for each day
that such item is  delivered  late by Seller,  up to a maximum  of 5  additional
days. In no event shall the Feasibility  Period be extended to more than 40 days
after the Effective Date pursuant to the foregoing sentence.

possession or reasonable control (subject to Section 3.5.2); provided,  however,
in the event that such Existing  Survey was prepared in connection with the sale
of the  Property,  then Seller shall deliver the same to Purchaser and Purchaser
shall pay the costs thereof.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that delivery of
the Existing Survey is subject to Section 3.5.2. Seller has ordered a new survey
(together with the Existing  Survey,  referred to herein as the "Survey") of the
Property.  Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the cost and expense of the
preparation of such new survey.

4.3 Objection and Response Process. On or before the date which is 20 days after

notice (the  "Objection  Notice") to the  attorneys for Seller of any matter set

shall be entitled to  reasonable  adjournments  of the Closing  Date to cure the
Objections.  If Seller  fails to  deliver  a  Response  Notice  by the  Response
Deadline,  Seller  shall be  deemed  to have  elected  not to cure or  otherwise
resolve  any  matter  set  forth  in  the  Objection  Notice.  If  Purchaser  is
dissatisfied  with the Response Notice,  Purchaser may, as its exclusive remedy,
elect by written notice given to Seller on or before 30 days after the Effective
Date (the "Final  Response  Deadline")  either (a) to accept the Title Documents
and  Survey  with  resolution,  if any,  of the  Objections  as set forth in the

the Objections) and without any reduction or abatement of the Purchase Price, or
(b) to terminate  this  Contract,  in which event the Initial  Deposit  shall be
returned to Purchaser (subject to Purchaser's  obligation under Section 3.5.2 to
return all  Third-Party  Reports  and  information  and  Materials  provided  to
Purchaser as a pre-condition to the return of the Initial Deposit). If Purchaser
fails to give notice to terminate  this Contract on or before the Final Response
Deadline,  Purchaser  shall be deemed to have elected to approve and irrevocably
waived any  objections  to any  matters  covered by the Title  Documents  or the
Survey,  subject only to  resolution,  if any, of the Objections as set forth in
the  Response  Notice  (or  if no  Response  Notice  is  tendered,  without  any
resolution of the Objections).

4.4 Permitted Exceptions.  The Deed delivered pursuant to this Contract shall be
subject to the following, all of which shall be deemed "Permitted Exceptions":

Response  Notice  under  Section  4.3,  (b)  mechanics'  liens and taxes due and
payable with respect to the period preceding Closing, (c) the standard exception
regarding  the rights of parties in  possession  which shall be limited to those

pertaining to taxes which shall be limited to taxes and  assessments  payable in
the year in which the Closing occurs and subsequent taxes and assessments;

4.4.2  .....All Leases;

4.4.3  .....The Assumed Encumbrances;

4.4.4  .....Applicable zoning and governmental regulations and ordinances;

4.4.5  .....Any defects in or objections  to title to the  Property,  or title
exceptions or encumbrances, arising by, through or under Purchaser; and

4.4.6  .....The terms and conditions of this Contract.

4.5   Assumed Encumbrances.

4.5.1 .....Purchaser  recognizes and agrees that, in connection with a loan (the
"Loan") made to Seller by GMAC  Commercial  Mortgage  Corporation as assigned to
Federal  Home  Loan  Corporation  (the  "Lender"),  the  Property  presently  is
encumbered  by a Multi  Family Deed of Trust,  Assignment  of Rents and Security
Agreement  dated  August 30, 2001 and recorded  September 5, 2001 (the  "Assumed
Deed of Trust") and certain  other  security and related  documents,  including,
without  limitation,  an  Indemnification  Agreement dated August 30, 2001 and a
Limited  Guaranty  dated as of August  30,  2001,  in  connection  with the Loan
(collectively,  the  "Assumed  Encumbrances").  The  Loan is  evidenced  by that
certain  promissory note dated August 30, 2001 in the stated principal amount of
$8,775,000.00  (the  "Note," and together  with the Assumed  Deed of Trust,  the
Assumed  Encumbrances  and any other documents  executed by Seller in connection
with the Loan, the "Assumed Loan Documents"),  executed by Seller and payable to
the order of the Lender.  The  outstanding  principal  balance of the Note as of
July 1, 2003 is  $8,385,220.47.  Within 5 days after the Effective Date,  Seller
agrees that it will make  available  to  Purchaser  (in the same manner in which
Seller is permitted to make the Materials  available to Purchaser  under Section
3.5.1) copies of the Assumed Loan Documents which are in Seller's  possession or
reasonable control (subject to Section 3.5.2).

4.5.2  .....Purchaser  agrees that, at the Closing,  (a) Purchaser  shall assume
Seller's  obligations under the Note and all of the other Assumed Loan Documents
and accept  title to the  Property  subject to the Deed of Trust and the Assumed
Encumbrances, and (b) the Lender shall release Seller, as well as any guarantors
and  other  obligated  parties  under  the  Assumed  Loan  Documents,  from  all
obligations  under the Assumed Loan  Documents  (and any related  guarantees  or
letters of  credit),  including,  without  limitation,  any  obligation  to make
payments of principal and interest under the Note  (collectively,  the foregoing
(a) and (b) referred to herein as the "Loan Assumption and Release").

4.5.3  .....Purchaser  further  acknowledges  that the  Assumed  Loan  Documents
require the  satisfaction  by  Purchaser  of certain  requirements  as set forth
therein to allow for the Loan Assumption and Release. Accordingly, Purchaser, at
its sole cost and expense  and within 15 days after the  Effective  Date,  shall
satisfy the  requirements  set forth in the Assumed Loan  Documents to allow for
the Loan Assumption and Release,  including,  without  limitation,  submitting a
complete  application  to Lender for  assumption  of the Loan  together with all
documents and information required in connection therewith (the "Loan Assumption
Application").  Purchaser shall comply with of Lender's assumption guidelines in
connection  with the Loan  Assumption and Release.  Purchaser shall pay all fees
and expenses  (including,  without  limitation,  all servicing fees and charges,
transfer fees, assumption fees, title fees,  endorsement fees, and other fees to
release Seller of all liability under the Loan) imposed or charged by the Lender
or its counsel  (such fees and expenses  collectively  being  referred to as the
"Lender Fees"), in connection with the Loan Assumption  Application and the Loan
Assumption and Release (which  obligation  shall survive the termination of this
Contract and the Closing). Additionally,  Purchaser shall be responsible for (a)
replacing  (and  increasing  to the extent  required  by Lender)  all  reserves,
impounds and other  accounts  required to be maintained  in connection  with the
Loan, and (b) funding any additional reserves,  impounds or accounts required by
Lender to be maintained by Purchaser in connection  with the Loan after the Loan
Assumption  and  Release  (the  foregoing  amounts  in (a) and (b)  collectively
referred to herein as the "Required Loan Fund Amounts").  Any existing reserves,
impounds and other accounts required to be replaced by Purchaser pursuant to the
foregoing  sentence  shall be released  in Good Funds to Seller at the  Closing.
Purchaser agrees promptly to deliver to the Lender all documents and information
required  by  the  Assumed  Loan  Documents,   and  such  other  information  or
documentation  as  the  Lender  reasonably  may  request,   including,   without
limitation,  financial  statements,  income  tax  returns  and  other  financial
information for Purchaser and any required guarantor. Seller agrees that it will
cooperate  with  Purchaser  and  Lender,  at no cost or expense  to  Seller,  in
connection  with  Purchaser's  application  to Lender for  approval  of the Loan
Assumption  and  Release.  No  later  than 15 days  after  the  Effective  Date,
Purchaser   shall  order  a  Phase  I   Environmental   study  (prepared  by  an
environmental   engineer  reasonably  acceptable  to  Seller  and  Lender),  and
covenants that such Phase I Environmental study shall be delivered to Seller and
Lender no later than 10 days prior to the Closing Date in connection with and as
a precondition to the Loan Assumption and Release.

4.5.4  .....If (a) Purchaser  fully  complies  with its  obligations  under this
Contract  (including this Section 4.5) and the  requirements of the Assumed Loan
Documents in connection  with  obtaining the Loan  Assumption  and Release,  (b)
Purchaser  uses best  efforts to obtain  the Loan  Assumption  Release,  and (c)
Purchaser  does not obtain the consent of the Lender to the Loan  Assumption and
Release  on or before 3  Business  Days  prior to the  Closing  Date (the  "Loan
Approval  Period") for reasons  other than (i)  Purchaser's  failure to submit a
complete Loan Assumption Application, or (ii) Purchaser's creditworthiness, then
Purchaser shall have the right, on or before the expiration of the Loan Approval
Period,  to give Escrow Agent notice  terminating  this Contract based solely on
the fact that the Loan  Assumption  and  Release  has not been  approved  by the
Lender (the "Loan Approval Termination"),  in which event this Contract shall be
of no further force and effect,  subject to and except for Purchaser's liability
pursuant to Section 3.3 and any other  provision of this Contract which survives
such  termination,  and Escrow  Agent  shall  forthwith  return  the  Deposit to
Purchaser.  If  Purchaser  fails  to  provide  Seller  with  written  notice  of
termination  prior to the  expiration  of the Loan  Approval  Period  in  strict
accordance  with the notice  provisions of this Contract,  Purchaser's  right to
terminate  under this Section 4.5.4 shall be permanently  waived,  this Contract
shall remain in full force and effect, the Deposit shall be non-refundable,  and
Purchaser's  obligation to obtain the Lender's  approval of the Loan  Assumption
and  Release  and  to  purchase  the  Property  shall  be   non-contingent   and
unconditional except only for satisfaction of the conditions expressly stated in
Section  8.1.  Purchaser  recognizes  and  agrees  that if  either  (x) the Loan
Approval Period expires and Purchaser is entitled to but does not terminate this
Contract, or (y) Purchaser does not obtain the consent of the Lender to the Loan
Assumption  and Release on or before 3 Business  Days prior to the Closing  Date
because  either  (I)  Purchaser's  failed to submit a complete  Loan  Assumption
Application, or (II) Lender determined that Purchaser was not creditworthy,  the
Loan  Assumption and Release shall not be a condition to Purchaser's  obligation
to close,  and, if the Loan  Assumption  and Release is not obtained and Closing
has not occurred on or before the Closing  Date,  Purchaser  shall be in default
under this Contract,  entitling the Seller to terminate this Contract,  in which
event the Deposit  shall be  immediately  released to Seller by the Escrow Agent
and this Contract shall be of no further force and effect, subject to and except
for  Purchaser's  liability  pursuant to Section 3.3 and any other  provision of
this Contract  which survives such  termination.  Under no  circumstances  shall
Seller be required to cause the pay-off of the Loan at the Closing.

                                  ARTICLE 5...
                                     CLOSING

5.1 Closing Date.  The Closing shall occur 30 days  following the  expiration of
the Feasibility Period (the "Closing Date") through an escrow with Escrow Agent,
whereby the Seller, Purchaser and their attorneys need not be physically present
at the Closing  and may  deliver  documents  by  overnight  air courier or other
means.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing to the  contrary,  Seller shall have the
option, by delivering written notice to Purchaser, to extend the Closing Date to
the last  Business  Day of the month in which the Closing Date  otherwise  would
occur pursuant to the preceding  sentence,  or to such other date (either in the
same  month  or the  next) as  Seller  reasonably  determines  is  desirable  in
connection with the Loan Assumption and Release.  Further,  the Closing Date may
be  extended  without  penalty at the option of Seller  either (a) to a date not
later than 30 days following the Closing Date specified in the first sentence of
this paragraph  above (or, if applicable,  as extended by Seller pursuant to the
second  sentence of this  paragraph)  to satisfy a condition  to be satisfied by
Seller, (b) to a date following the Closing Date specified in the first sentence
of this paragraph  above (or, if applicable,  as extended by Seller  pursuant to
the second  sentence of this  paragraph)  in order to finalize the drafting with
Lender  and  Lender's  counsel  of  all  documents  necessary  or  desirable  to
accomplish  the  Loan  Assumption  and  Release,  or (c) such  later  date as is
mutually  acceptable to Seller and Purchaser.  Provided that Purchaser is not in
default  under  the  terms of this  Contract,  Purchaser  shall be  permitted  a
one-time 30-day extension of the Closing Date specified in the first sentence of
this Section 5.1 by (i) delivering written notice to Seller no later than 5 days
prior to the scheduled Closing Date, and (ii) simultaneously with such notice to
Seller, delivering to Escrow Agent the amount of $147,500.00,  which amount when
received  by Escrow  Agent  shall be added to the  Deposit  hereunder,  shall be

the  Deposit),  and shall be held,  credited and disbursed in the same manner as
provided hereunder with respect to the Deposit.

applicable Terminated Contract) (the "Vendor Terminations").

5.2.6  .....A closing statement executed by Seller.

5.2.7 .....A title affidavit or at Seller's option an indemnity,  as applicable,
in the customary form reasonably acceptable to Seller to enable Title Insurer to

Contract (other than matters  constituting any Permitted  Exceptions and matters
which are to be completed or performed  post-Closing)  to be issued  pursuant to
the Title  Commitment;  provided that such  affidavit does not subject Seller to
any greater liability, or impose any additional  obligations,  other than as set
forth in this Contract; and

5.2.8 .....A  certification of Seller's  non-foreign  status pursuant to Section
1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

organizational  documents as Title Insurer shall reasonably  require  evidencing
Seller's authority to consummate this transaction.

5.2.10 .... An updated Rent Roll reflecting the information  required in Section
3.5.3; provided, however, that the content of such updated Rent Roll shall in no
event expand or modify the  conditions  to  Purchaser's  obligation  to close as
specified under Section 8.1.

5.3  Purchaser  Closing  Deliveries.  No later than 1 Business  Day prior to the
Closing  Date  (except  for the  balance of the  Purchase  Price  which is to be

items with respect to the Property being conveyed at such Closing:

applicable,  the Loan  Balance),  plus or minus the  adjustments  or  prorations
required by this Contract.

5.3.2 .....A title affidavit (or at Purchaser's option an indemnity)  pertaining
to Purchaser's  activity on the Property prior to Closing, in the customary form
reasonably  acceptable  to  Purchaser,  to enable  Title  Insurer  to delete the
standard  exceptions  to the title  insurance  policy set forth in this Contract
(other than matters  constituting any Permitted Exceptions and matters which are
to be completed or performed  post-Closing)  to be issued  pursuant to the Title
Commitment;  provided  that such  affidavit  does not subject  Purchaser  to any
greater liability, or impose any additional obligations, other than as set forth
in this Contract.

5.4   Closing Prorations and Adjustments.

5.4.1  .....General.  All normal and customarily  proratable  items,  including,
without  limitation,  collected rents,  operating  expenses,  personal  property
taxes,  other operating  expenses and fees,  shall be prorated as of the Closing
Date,  Seller  being  charged  or  credited,  as  appropriate,  for  all of same
attributable  to the period up to the Closing Date (and credited for any amounts
paid by Seller  attributable  to the  period on or after the  Closing  Date,  if
assumed by  Purchaser)  and  Purchaser  being  responsible  for, and credited or
charged,  as the case may be, for all of same  attributable to the period on and
after  the  Closing  Date.  Seller  shall  prepare  a  proration  schedule  (the
"Proration  Schedule") of the adjustments described in this Section 5.4 prior to
Closing.  Such  adjustments  shall  be  paid  by  Purchaser  to  Seller  (if the
prorations  result in a net credit to Seller) or by Seller to Purchaser  (if the
prorations  result in a net credit to Purchaser),  by increasing or reducing the
cash to be paid by Purchaser at Closing.

5.4.2 .....Operating Expenses. All of the operating,  maintenance,  taxes (other
than real estate taxes,  such as rental taxes),  and other expenses  incurred in
operating  the  Property  that  Seller  customarily  pays,  and any other  costs
incurred in the ordinary  course of business for the management and operation of
the Property,  shall be prorated on an accrual basis.  Seller shall pay all such
expenses that accrue prior to Closing and Purchaser  shall pay all such expenses
that accrue from and after the Closing Date.

5.4.3  .....Utilities.  The final readings and final billings for utilities will
be made if possible as of the Closing  Date,  in which case Seller shall pay all
such bills as of the Closing Date and no proration  shall be made at the Closing
with respect to utility bills.  Otherwise,  a proration shall be made based upon
the parties'  reasonable  good faith estimate and a readjustment  made within 30
days after the Closing, if necessary.  Seller shall be entitled to the return of
any deposit(s)  posted by it with any utility  company,  and Seller shall notify
each  utility  company  serving the  Property  to  terminate  Seller's  account,
effective as of noon on the Closing Date.

5.4.4  .....Real  Estate Taxes.  Any real estate ad valorem or similar taxes for
the Property,  or any installment of assessments  payable in installments  which
installment is payable in the calendar year of Closing, shall be prorated to the
date of Closing, based upon actual days involved. The proration of real property
taxes or installments of assessments shall be based upon the assessed  valuation
and tax rate figures for the year in which the Closing  occurs to the extent the
same are available; provided, that in the event that actual figures (whether for
the assessed  value of the Property or for the tax rate) for the year of Closing
are not available at the Closing Date, the proration shall be made using figures
from the preceding year. The proration of real property taxes or installments of
assessments shall be final and not subject to re-adjustment after Closing.

5.4.5 .....Property Contracts. Purchaser shall assume at Closing the obligations
under the  Property  Contracts  assumed by  Purchaser,  subject to  proration of
operating expenses under Section 5.4.2.

5.4.6  .....Leases.

5.4.6.1  ...All  collected  rent  (whether  fixed  monthly  rentals,  additional
rentals,  escalation rentals,  retroactive rentals, operating cost pass-throughs
or other  sums and  charges  payable by Tenants  under the  Leases),  income and
expenses  from any portion of the  Property  shall be prorated as of the Closing
Date  (prorated for any partial  month).  Purchaser  shall receive all collected
rent and income  attributable  to dates from and after the Closing Date.  Seller
shall receive all collected rent and income  attributable  to dates prior to the
Closing Date.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  no prorations  shall be made in
relation to either (a) non-delinquent  rents which have not been collected as of
the Closing Date, or (b) delinquent  rents  existing,  if any, as of the Closing
Date (the foregoing (a) and (b) referred to herein as the "Uncollected  Rents").
In adjusting for  Uncollected  Rents,  no adjustments  shall be made in Seller's
favor for rents  which  have  accrued  and are  unpaid  as of the  Closing,  but
Purchaser shall pay Seller such accrued  Uncollected Rents as and when collected
by  Purchaser.  Purchaser  agrees  to  bill  Tenants  of the  Property  for  all
Uncollected Rents and to take reasonable  actions to collect  Uncollected Rents.
After  the  Closing,  Seller  shall  continue  to have  the  right,  but not the
obligation,  in its own name,  to demand  payment of and to collect  Uncollected
Rents  owed  to  Seller  by any  Tenant,  which  right  shall  include,  without
limitation,  the right to  continue  or commence  legal  actions or  proceedings
against  any  Tenant  and  the  delivery  of the  Leases  Assignment  shall  not
constitute a waiver by Seller of such right.  Purchaser agrees to cooperate with
Seller in  connection  with all  efforts by Seller to collect  such  Uncollected
Rents and to take all steps, whether before or after the Closing Date, as may be
necessary  to carry  out the  intention  of the  foregoing,  including,  without
limitation,  the delivery to Seller,  within 7 days after a written request,  of
any relevant books and records (including,  without limitation, rent statements,
receipted  bills and copies of tenant checks used in payment of such rent),  the
execution of any and all consents or other documents, and the undertaking of any
act reasonably necessary for the collection of such Uncollected Rents by Seller;
provided, however, that Purchaser's obligation to cooperate with Seller pursuant
to this sentence shall not obligate Purchaser to terminate any Tenant lease with
an  existing  Tenant  or evict or bring  other  legal  proceedings  against  any
existing Tenant from the Property.

5.4.6.2 ...At  Closing,  Purchaser  shall receive a credit  against the Purchase
Price in an amount equal to the received and  unapplied  balance of all cash (or
cash  equivalent)  Tenant  Deposits,  including,  but not limited to,  security,
damage or other refundable deposits or required to be paid by any of the Tenants
to secure their respective obligations under the Leases, together, in all cases,
with any interest payable to the Tenants  thereunder as may be required by their
respective  Tenant Lease or state law (the "Tenant Security  Deposit  Balance").
Any cash (or cash  equivalents)  held by  Seller  which  constitute  the  Tenant
Security  Deposit  Balance  shall be  retained  by  Seller in  exchange  for the
foregoing  credit  against the Purchase  Price and shall not be  transferred  by
Seller pursuant to this Contract (or any of the documents delivered at Closing),
but  the  obligation  with  respect  to  the  Tenant  Security  Deposit  Balance
nonetheless  shall be assumed by Purchaser.  The Tenant Security Deposit Balance
shall not include any non-refundable deposits or fees paid by Tenants to Seller,
either pursuant to the Leases or otherwise.

5.4.6.3 ...With respect to operating  expenses,  taxes,  utility charges,  other
operating cost pass-throughs,  retroactive rental  escalations,  sums or charges
payable  by Tenants  under the Tenant  Leases,  to the  extent  that  Seller has
received as of the Closing payments  allocable to periods subsequent to Closing,
the same shall be properly  prorated  with an  adjustment in favor of Purchaser,
and Purchaser  shall reserve a credit  therefor at Closing.  With respect to any
payments  received by Purchaser  after the Closing  allocable to Seller prior to
Closing, Purchaser shall promptly pay the same to Seller.

5.4.7 .....Existing Loan. Seller shall be responsible for all principal required
to be paid  under  the terms of the Note  prior to  Closing,  together  with all
interest  accrued under the Note prior to Closing,  all of which may be a credit
against the  Purchase  Price as provided in Section  2.2.3.  Purchaser  shall be
responsible for the payment of all principal  required to be paid from and after
Closing,  together  with all  interest  accruing  under  the Note from and after
Closing.  Purchaser also shall be responsible  for all Lender Fees and all other
fees, penalties, interest and other amounts due and owing from and after Closing
under the Assumed Loan Documents (including,  without limitation, as a result of
Loan  Assumption  and  Release).  As set forth in Section  4.5.3,  any  existing
reserves, impounds and other accounts maintained in connection with the Loan and
required to be replaced by Purchaser,  shall be released in Good Funds to Seller
at the Closing.

5.4.8  .....Insurance.  No  proration  shall be made in  relation  to  insurance
premiums and insurance policies will not be assigned to Purchaser.

5.4.9  .....Employees.  All of Seller's and Seller's manager's on-site employees
shall have their employment at the Property terminated as of the Closing Date.

5.4.10 ....Closing Costs. Purchaser shall pay any transfer, mortgage assumption.
sales,  use,  gross  receipts  or  similar  taxes,  the  cost of  recording  any
instruments  required  to  discharge  any  liens  or  encumbrances  against  the
Property,  any premiums or fees required to be paid by Purchaser with respect to
the Title Policy pursuant to Section 4.1, and one-half of the customary  closing
costs of the  Escrow  Agent.  Seller  shall pay the base  premium  for the Title
Policy to the extent  required by Section  4.1,  and  one-half of the  customary
closing costs of the Escrow Agent.

5.4.11  ....Utility  Contracts.  If Seller has entered into an agreement for the
purchase of  electricity,  gas or other  utility  service for the  Property or a
group of  properties  (including  the  Property) (a "Utility  Contract"),  or an
affiliate of Seller has entered into a Utility Contract,  then, at the option of
Seller,  (a) Purchaser  either shall assume the Utility Contract with respect to
the Property,  or (b) the reasonably  calculated  costs of the Utility  Contract
attributable  to the Property from and after the Closing shall be paid to Seller
at the  Closing and Seller  shall  remain  responsible  for  payments  under the
Utility Contract.

5.4.12  ....Survival.  The  provisions  of this  Section  5.4 shall  survive the
Closing and delivery of the Deed to Purchaser.

5.4.13  ....Possession.  Possession  of the  Property,  subject  to the  Leases,
Property  Contracts which are not identified as Terminated  Contracts during the
Feasibility  Period  (subject to the  limitations of Section 3.6), and Permitted
Exceptions,  shall be  delivered  to  Purchaser at the Closing upon release from
escrow of all items to be  delivered  by  Purchaser  pursuant  to  Section  5.3,
including,  without  limitation,  the Purchase Price.  To the extent  reasonably
available to Seller,  originals or copies of the Leases and Property  Contracts,
lease files,  warranties,  guaranties,  operating manuals, keys to the property,
and Seller's books and records (other than  proprietary  information)  regarding
the Property  shall be made  available  to  Purchaser at the Property  after the
Closing.

5.5 Post  Closing  Adjustments.  In  general,  and  except as  provided  in this
Contract or the Closing  Documents,  Seller shall be entitled to all income, and
shall pay all expenses, relating to the operation of the Property for the period
prior to the Closing  Date and  Purchaser  shall be entitled to all income,  and
shall pay all expenses, relating to the operation of the Property for the period
commencing on and after the Closing  Date.  Purchaser or Seller may request that
Purchaser and Seller  undertake to re-adjust any item on the Proration  Schedule
(or any item omitted therefrom) in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.4
of  this  Contract;  provided,  however,  that  neither  party  shall  have  any
obligation  to  re-adjust  any items (a) after the  expiration  of 60 days after
Closing,  or (b)  subject  to such  60-day  period,  unless  such  items  exceed
$5,000.00 in magnitude (either individually or in the aggregate). The provisions
of this  Section  5.6 shall  survive  the  Closing  and  delivery of the Deed to
Purchaser.

                                  ARTICLE 6...
            REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER AND PURCHASER

6.1 Seller's Representations. Except, in all cases, for any fact, information or
condition  disclosed  in the Title  Documents,  the  Permitted  Exceptions,  the
Property Contracts,  or the Materials,  or which is otherwise known by Purchaser
prior to the Closing,  Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser the following
(collectively,  the "Seller's  Representations") as of the Effective Date and as
of the Closing Date  (provided  that  Purchaser's  remedies if any such Seller's
Representations are untrue as of the Closing Date are limited to those set forth
in Section 8.1):

6.1.1 .....Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of the state of its  formation  set forth in the initial  paragraph  of
this Contract;  and,  subject to Section 8.2.4, has or at the Closing shall have
the entity  power and  authority  to sell and convey the Property and to execute
the  documents to be executed by Seller and prior to the Closing will have taken
as  applicable,  all  corporate,   partnership,  limited  liability  company  or
equivalent  entity  actions  required  for the  execution  and  delivery of this
Contract,  and  the  consummation  of  the  transactions  contemplated  by  this
Contract.  The compliance with or fulfillment of the terms and conditions hereof
will not  conflict  with,  or result in a breach of, the  terms,  conditions  or
provisions of, or constitute a default under,  any contract to which Seller is a
party or by which Seller is otherwise bound,  which conflict,  breach or default
would have a material  adverse  affect on  Seller's  ability to  consummate  the
transaction contemplated by this Contract or on the Property. Subject to Section
8.2.4,  this  Contract is a valid,  binding and  enforceable  agreement  against
Seller in accordance with its terms;

6.1.2  .....Other  than the Leases,  the  Property is not subject to any written
lease  executed  by  Seller  or, to  Seller's  knowledge,  any other  possessory
interests of any person;

6.1.3 .....Seller is not a "foreign person," as that term is used and defined in
the Internal Revenue Code, Section 1445, as amended;

6.1.4  .....Except  for any actions by Seller to evict Tenants under the Leases,
to  Seller's  knowledge,  there  are  no  actions,  proceedings,  litigation  or
governmental investigations or condemnation actions either pending or threatened
against the Property;

6.1.5 .....To  Seller's  knowledge,  Seller has not received any written  notice
from a governmental  agency of any uncured  material  violations of any federal,
state,  county or municipal  law,  ordinance,  order,  regulation or requirement
affecting the Property; and

6.1.6 .....To Seller's knowledge,  Seller has not received any written notice of
any material default by Seller under any of the Property Contracts that will not
be terminated on the Closing Date.

6.1.7  .....To the  knowledge of Seller,  the Rent Roll (as updated  pursuant to
Section 5.2.10) is accurate in all material respects.

6.1.8 .....To Seller's  knowledge:  (A) no hazardous or toxic materials or other
substances  regulated  by  applicable  federal or state  environmental  laws are
stored  by Seller  on, in or under the  Property  in  quantities  which  violate
applicable laws governing such materials or substances,  and (B) the Property is
not used by Seller for the storage, treatment,  generation or manufacture of any
hazardous  or toxic  materials  or other  substances  in a  manner  which  would
constitute a violation of applicable federal or state environmental laws.

6.1.9 .....To  Seller's  knowledge,  Seller has not received any written  notice
from any  third-party  of any violation of the ADA affecting the Property.  (For
purposes of the foregoing  sentence,  third party shall not include Purchaser or
Purchaser's Consultants.)

6.2 AS-IS.  Except for  Seller's  Representations,  the  Property  is  expressly
purchased  and sold "AS IS," "WHERE  IS," and "WITH ALL  FAULTS."  The  Purchase
Price  and  the  terms  and  conditions  set  forth  herein  are the  result  of
arm's-length  bargaining  between  entities  familiar with  transactions of this
kind, and said price, terms and conditions reflect the fact that Purchaser shall
have the benefit of, and is not relying upon, any information provided by Seller
or statements,  representations  or warranties,  express or implied,  made by or
enforceable directly against Seller, including, without limitation, any relating
to the value of the  Property,  the physical or  environmental  condition of the
Property, any state, federal,  county or local law, ordinance,  order or permit;
or the  suitability,  compliance  or lack of compliance of the Property with any
regulation,  or any other  attribute  or matter of or relating  to the  Property
(other than any covenants of title  contained in the Deed conveying the Property
and  Seller's  Representations).  Purchaser  agrees  that  Seller  shall  not be
responsible or liable to Purchaser for any defects,  errors or omissions,  or on
account of any conditions affecting the Property.  Purchaser, its successors and
assigns,  and anyone  claiming  by,  through or under  Purchaser,  hereby  fully
releases Seller's  Indemnified Parties from, and irrevocably waives its right to
maintain,  any and all claims and causes of action  that it or they may now have
or hereafter  acquire against Seller's  Indemnified  Parties with respect to any
and all Losses  arising  from or related to any  defects,  errors,  omissions or
other conditions affecting the Property. Purchaser represents and warrants that,
as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, it has and shall have reviewed
and conducted such independent analyses, studies (including, without limitation,
environmental  studies and analyses  concerning the presence of lead,  asbestos,
PCBs  and  radon  in  and  about  the  Property),  reports,  investigations  and
inspections as it deems  appropriate in connection with the Property.  If Seller
provides or has provided any documents,  summaries,  opinions or work product of
consultants,  surveyors,  architects,  engineers, title companies,  governmental
authorities  or any  other  person  or  entity  with  respect  to the  Property,
including, without limitation, any offering prepared in connection with the sale
of the Property,  Purchaser and Seller agree that Seller has done so or shall do
so only for the  convenience of both parties,  Purchaser  shall not rely thereon
and the reliance by Purchaser upon any such  documents,  summaries,  opinions or
work  product  shall  not  create or give rise to any  liability  of or  against
Seller's Indemnified Parties. Purchaser shall rely only upon any title insurance
obtained  by  Purchaser  with  respect  to  title  to  the  Property.  Purchaser
acknowledges   and  agrees  that  no   representation   has  been  made  and  no
responsibility  is  assumed  by  Seller  with  respect  to  current  and  future
applicable  zoning  or  building  code  requirements  or the  compliance  of the
Property with any other laws,  rules,  ordinances or regulations,  the financial
earning  capacity  or  expense  history of the  Property,  the  continuation  of
contracts,  continued occupancy levels of the Property,  or any part thereof, or
the continued occupancy by tenants of any Leases or, without limiting any of the
foregoing,  occupancy at Closing. Prior to Closing, Seller shall have the right,
but not the  obligation,  to enforce  its rights  against  any and all  Property
occupants,  guests or tenants.  Purchaser  agrees that the departure or removal,
prior to Closing,  of any of such guests,  occupants or tenants shall not be the
basis for,  nor shall it give rise to, any claim on the part of  Purchaser,  nor
shall it affect the  obligations of Purchaser  under this Contract in any manner
whatsoever; and Purchaser shall close title and accept delivery of the Deed with
or without such tenants in possession  and without any allowance or reduction in
the Purchase Price under this Contract.  Purchaser  hereby  releases Seller from
any and all  claims and  liabilities  relating  to the  foregoing  matters.  The
provisions  of this  Section 6.2 shall  survive the Closing and  delivery of the
Deed to Purchaser.

6.3  Survival  of  Seller's  Representations.  Seller and  Purchaser  agree that
Seller's  Representations  shall survive  Closing for a period of 12 months (the
"Survival  Period").  Seller shall have no liability  after the Survival  Period
with respect to Seller's  Representations  contained herein except to the extent
that  Purchaser has  requested  arbitration  against  Seller during the Survival
Period for breach of any of  Seller's  Representations.  Under no  circumstances
shall Seller be liable to Purchaser for more than  $150,000.00 in any individual
instance or in the aggregate for all breaches of Seller's  Representations,  nor
shall  Purchaser  be  entitled  to bring  any  claim  for a breach  of  Seller's
Representations  unless the claim for damage  (either in the  aggregate or as to
any individual claim) by Purchaser exceeds  $5,000.00.  In the event that Seller
breaches any representation contained in Section 6.1 and Purchaser had knowledge
of such breach  prior to the  Closing  Date,  Purchaser  shall be deemed to have
waived  any  right of  recovery,  and  Seller  shall not have any  liability  in
connection therewith.

6.4 Definition of Seller's  Knowledge.  Any  representations and warranties made
"to the  knowledge of Seller"  shall not be deemed to imply any duty of inquiry.
For purposes of this  Contract,  the term  Seller's  "knowledge"  shall mean and
refer only to actual  knowledge of the Designated  Representative  of the Seller
and shall  not be  construed  to refer to the  knowledge  of any other  partner,
officer,  director,  agent,  employee or  representative  of the Seller,  or any
affiliate of the Seller,  or to impose upon such Designated  Representative  any
duty to  investigate  the matter to which such actual  knowledge  or the absence
thereof  pertains,  or  to  impose  upon  such  Designated   Representative  any
individual   personal   liability.   As  used   herein,   the  term   Designated
Representative   shall  refer  to  Kendra  Miller  and  Jody  Nelsen,  who  are,
respectively,  the Regional Property Manager and Community Manager handling this
Property (the "Regional Property Manager").

6.5  Representations  And  Warranties Of Purchaser.  For the purpose of inducing
Seller to enter into this  Contract and to  consummate  the sale and purchase of
the Property in accordance herewith, Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller
the following as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing Date:

6.5.1  .....Purchaser  is a limited  liability  company duly organized,  validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of Utah.

6.5.2  .....Purchaser,  acting  through any of its or their duly  empowered  and
authorized officers or members,  has all necessary entity power and authority to
own and use its  properties and to transact the business in which it is engaged,
and has full power and  authority  to enter into this  Contract,  to execute and
deliver the  documents  and  instruments  required of Purchaser  herein,  and to
perform  its  obligations  hereunder;  and no  consent  of  any  of  Purchaser's
partners, directors, officers or members are required to so empower or authorize
Purchaser. The compliance with or fulfillment of the terms and conditions hereof
will not  conflict  with,  or result in a breach of, the  terms,  conditions  or
provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract to which Purchaser is
a party or by which  Purchaser is otherwise  bound,  which  conflict,  breach or
default  would  have  a  material  adverse  affect  on  Purchaser's  ability  to
consummate the  transaction  contemplated  by this Contract.  This Contract is a
valid,  binding and enforceable  agreement  against Purchaser in accordance with
its terms.

6.5.3 .....No pending or, to the knowledge of Purchaser,  threatened  litigation
exists which if determined  adversely  would  restrain the  consummation  of the
transactions  contemplated by this Contract or would declare illegal, invalid or
non-binding any of Purchaser's obligations or covenants to Seller.

6.5.4 .....Other than Seller's Representations,  Purchaser has not relied on any
representation  or warranty  made by Seller or any  representative  of Seller in
connection with this Contract and the acquisition of the Property.

      The  provisions of this Section 6.6 shall survive the Closing and delivery
of the Deed to Purchaser.

                                  ARTICLE 7...
                            OPERATION OF THE PROPERTY

7.1 Leases and Property Contracts.  During the period of time from the Effective
Date to the Closing  Date, in the ordinary  course of business  Seller may enter
into new  Property  Contracts,  new  Leases,  renew  existing  Leases or modify,
terminate or accept the surrender or forfeiture of any of the Leases, modify any
Property  Contracts,  or institute  and  prosecute  any  available  remedies for
default under any Lease or Property Contract without first obtaining the written
consent  of  Purchaser;  provided,  however,  Seller  agrees  that  any such new
Property  Contracts or any new or renewed Leases shall not have a term in excess
of 1 year (or such longer  period of time for which such  Property  Contracts or
Leases are entered into by Seller in the ordinary course of its operation of the
Property)  without the prior written  consent of Purchaser,  which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

7.2   General Operation of Property.

7.2.1  .....Except  as  specifically  set forth in this  Article 7, Seller shall
operate  the  Property  after  the  Effective  Date in the  ordinary  course  of
business, and except as necessary in the Seller's sole discretion to address (a)
any life or  safety  issue at the  Property  or (b) any  other  matter  which in
Seller's reasonable discretion materially adversely affecting the use, operation
or value of the Property,  Seller will not make any material  alterations to the
Property or remove any material  Fixtures and Tangible Personal Property without
the prior written  consent of Purchaser  which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, denied or delayed.

7.2.2  .....Seller  agrees  that at the  Closing  (a)  Seller  will  deliver  to
Purchaser the same number (or less) of Tenant Units which were vacant and not in
Rent-Ready  Condition on the date that the Feasibility  Period  expired,  or (b)
Purchaser  shall receive a credit  against the Purchase Price in an amount equal
to the product of (i) the number of  additional  Tenant Units on the date of the
Closing that are vacant and not in Rent-Ready  Condition in excess of the number
of Tenant  Units that were vacant and not in  Rent-Ready  Condition  on the date
that the Feasibility Period expired, and (ii) $300.00.

7.2.3  .....Seller  agrees to  maintain  its  existing  insurance  policies  (or
replacement  policies on comparable  terms)  covering the Property in full force
and effect through the Closing Date.

7.3 Liens.  Other than utility  easements and temporary  construction  easements
granted by Seller in the ordinary course of business,  Seller  covenants that it
will not  voluntarily  create or cause any lien or  encumbrance to attach to the
Property  between the Effective Date and the Closing Date (other than Leases and
Property  Contracts as provided in Section 7.1) unless  Purchaser  approves such
lien or  encumbrance,  which  approval  shall not be  unreasonably  withheld  or
delayed. If Purchaser approves any such subsequent lien or encumbrance, the same
shall be deemed a Permitted Encumbrance for all purposes hereunder.

                                  ARTICLE 8...
                         CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO CLOSING

8.1   Purchaser's  Conditions  to  Closing.  Purchaser's  obligation  to close
under this Contract,  shall be subject to and conditioned upon the fulfillment
of each and all of the following conditions precedent:

8.1.1 .....All of the documents  required to be delivered by Seller to Purchaser
at the  Closing  pursuant  to the terms and  conditions  hereof  shall have been
delivered;

8.1.2  .....Each  of the  representations,  warranties  and  covenants of Seller
contained herein shall be true in all material respects as of the Closing Date;

8.1.3  .....Seller  shall have  complied  with,  fulfilled  and performed in all
material  respects each of the  covenants,  terms and  conditions to be complied
with, fulfilled or performed by Seller hereunder; and

8.1.4 .....Neither  Seller nor Seller's general partner shall be a debtor in any

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, there are no other conditions on
Purchaser's  obligation  to Close except as expressly  set forth in this Section
8.1. If any  condition set forth in Sections  8.1.1,  8.1.3 or 8.1.4 is not met,
Purchaser may (a) waive any of the foregoing  conditions  and proceed to Closing
on the Closing Date with no offset or deduction from the Purchase  Price, or (b)
if such failure  constitutes  a default by Seller,  exercise any of its remedies
pursuant to Section  10.2.  If the  condition  set forth in Section 8.1.2 is not
met,  Purchaser  may, as its sole and  exclusive  remedy,  (i) notify  Seller of
Purchaser's  election to  terminate  this  Contract  and receive a return of the
Deposit  from the Escrow  Agent,  or (ii) waive such  condition  and  proceed to
Closing on the Closing Date with no offset or deduction from the Purchase Price.

8.2 Without limiting any of the rights of Seller elsewhere  provided for in this
Contract,  Seller's  obligation  to close  with  respect  to  conveyance  of the
Property  under  this  Contract  shall be subject  to and  conditioned  upon the
fulfillment of each and all of the following conditions precedent:

8.2.1  .....All of the documents and funds required to be delivered by Purchaser
to Seller at the Closing pursuant to the terms and conditions  hereof shall have
been delivered;

8.2.2  .....Each of the  representations,  warranties and covenants of Purchaser
contained herein shall be true in all material respects as of the Closing Date;

8.2.3  .....Purchaser  shall have complied with,  fulfilled and performed in all
material  respects each of the  covenants,  terms and  conditions to be complied
with, fulfilled or performed by Purchaser hereunder; and

8.2.4  .....Seller  shall  have  received  all  consents  and  approvals  to the
consummation of the transactions  contemplated  hereby (a) of Seller's partners,
members, managers,  shareholders or directors to the extent required by Seller's
(or Seller's affiliates')  organizational documents, or (b) that are required by
law.

8.2.5  .....The Loan Assumption and Release shall have occurred.

      If any of the foregoing  conditions  to Seller's  obligation to close with
respect to  conveyance of the Property  under this Contract are not met,  Seller
may (a) waive any of the  foregoing  conditions  and  proceed  to Closing on the
Closing Date, or (b) terminate this Contract, and, if such failure constitutes a
default by Purchaser, exercise any of its remedies under Section 10.1.

                                  ARTICLE 9...
                                    BROKERAGE

9.1 Indemnity.  Seller and Purchaser  each  represents and warrants to the other
that it has not dealt with or utilized the  services of any real estate  broker,
sales person or finder in connection  with this Contract,  and each party agrees
to  indemnify,  hold  harmless,  and,  if  requested  in the sole  and  absolute
discretion of the indemnitee,  defend (with counsel  approved by the indemnitee)
the other party from and against all Losses  relating to  brokerage  commissions
and finder's fees arising from or  attributable  to the acts or omissions of the
indemnifying  party.  The  provisions  of this  Section  9.1 shall  survive  the
termination of this Contract, and if not so terminated, the Closing and delivery
of the Deed to Purchaser.

9.2   Intentionally Deleted.

9.3   Intentionally Deleted.

                                  ARTICLE 10..
                              DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

10.1 ......Purchaser Default. If Purchaser defaults in its obligations hereunder
to (a) deliver the Initial  Deposit or  Additional  Deposit,  (b) deliver to the
Seller  the  deliveries  specified  under  Section  5.3  on  the  date  required
thereunder,  or (c) deliver the Purchase  Price at the time  required by Section
2.2.4 and close on the  purchase  of the  Property on the  Closing  Date,  then,
immediately and without notice or cure, Purchaser shall have no further right to
the  Deposit,  and the Escrow  Agent shall  deliver  the Deposit to Seller,  and
neither  party shall be  obligated  to proceed with the purchase and sale of the
Property. If, Purchaser defaults in any of its other representations, warranties
or obligations under this Contract,  and such default continues for more than 10
days after  written  notice from Seller,  then  Purchaser  shall have no further
right to the Deposit,  and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Deposit to Seller,
and neither  party shall be  obligated  to proceed with the purchase and sale of
the Property.  The Deposit is liquidated damages and recourse to the Deposit is,
except  for  Purchaser's  indemnity  obligations  hereunder,  Seller's  sole and
exclusive  remedy for Purchaser's  failure to perform its obligation to purchase
the Property or breach of a representation or warranty.  Seller expressly waives
the remedies of specific  performance and additional damages for such default by
Purchaser.  SELLER AND  PURCHASER  ACKNOWLEDGE  THAT  SELLER'S  DAMAGES WOULD BE
DIFFICULT  TO  DETERMINE,  AND THAT THE  DEPOSIT  IS A  REASONABLE  ESTIMATE  OF
SELLER'S  DAMAGES  RESULTING  FROM A DEFAULT BY PURCHASER IN ITS  OBLIGATION  TO
PURCHASE THE  PROPERTY.  SELLER AND  PURCHASER  FURTHER  AGREE THAT THIS SECTION
10.1.1 IS INTENDED TO AND DOES  LIQUIDATE THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE SELLER,  AND
SHALL BE SELLER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST PURCHASER, BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY,
ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY PURCHASER OF ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE
THE  TRANSACTIONS  CONTEMPLATED  BY THIS  CONTRACT,  OTHER THAN WITH  RESPECT TO
PURCHASER'S INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

10.2  ......Seller  Default.  If Seller,  prior to the Closing,  defaults in its
representations,  warranties,  covenants,  or  obligations  under this Contract,
including  to sell the  Property as required by this  Contract  and such default
continues for more than 10 days after written  notice from  Purchaser,  then, at
Purchaser's  election and as Purchaser's sole and exclusive  remedy,  either (A)
this Contract shall terminate,  and all payments and things of value,  including
the  Deposit,  provided by  Purchaser  hereunder  shall be returned to Purchaser
(subject to Purchaser's obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party
Reports and information  and Materials  provided to Purchaser as a pre-condition
to the return of the Deposit) and Purchaser may recover, as its sole recoverable
damages (but without limiting its right to receive a refund of the Deposit), its
direct and actual out-of-pocket  expenses and costs (documented by paid invoices
to third parties) in connection with this  transaction,  which damages shall not
exceed $147,500.00 in aggregate,  or (B) Purchaser may seek specific performance
of Seller's  obligation  to deliver the Deed  pursuant to this Contract (but not
damages).  Purchaser  agrees  that  it  shall  promptly  deliver  to  Seller  an
assignment of all of Purchaser's  right,  title and interest in and to (together
with possession of) all plans,  studies,  surveys,  reports, and other materials
paid for with the  out-of-pocket  expenses  reimbursed by Seller pursuant to the
foregoing sentence. SELLER AND PURCHASER FURTHER AGREE THAT THIS SECTION 10.2 IS
INTENDED TO AND DOES LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES DUE  PURCHASER AND THE REMEDIES
AVAILABLE  TO  PURCHASER,  AND SHALL BE  PURCHASER'S  EXCLUSIVE  REMEDY  AGAINST
SELLER,  BOTH AT LAW AND IN EQUITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO A BREACH BY SELLER
OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, OR COVENANTS OR ITS OBLIGATION TO CONSUMMATE
THE  TRANSACTIONS  CONTEMPLATED  BY THIS CONTRACT.  UNDER NO  CIRCUMSTANCES  MAY
PURCHASER SEEK OR BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER ANY SPECIAL,  CONSEQUENTIAL,  PUNITIVE,
SPECULATIVE OR INDIRECT  DAMAGES,  ALL OF WHICH PURCHASER  SPECIFICALLY  WAIVES,
FROM  SELLER FOR ANY BREACH BY SELLER,  OF ITS  REPRESENTATIONS,  WARRANTIES  OR
COVENANTS OR ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS CONTRACT.  PURCHASER 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 CONTRACT
AND HAS FILED AN ACTION SEEKING SUCH REMEDY.

                                  ARTICLE 11..
                            RISK OF LOSS OR CASUALTY

11.1 ......Major  Damage. In the event that the Property is damaged or destroyed
by fire or other casualty prior to Closing,  and the cost of repair is more than
$300,000,  then  Seller  shall  have no  obligation  to  repair  such  damage or
destruction and shall notify  Purchaser in writing of such damage or destruction
(the "Damage Notice").  Within 10 days after  Purchaser's  receipt of the Damage
Notice,  Purchaser  may  elect at its  option  to  terminate  this  Contract  by
delivering  written notice to Seller.  In the event Purchaser fails to terminate
this Contract  within the foregoing  10-day period,  this  transaction  shall be
closed in accordance with the terms of this Contract for the full Purchase Price
notwithstanding  any such damage or destruction  and Purchaser shall receive all
insurance proceeds  pertaining thereto (plus a credit against the Purchase Price
in the amount of any  deductible  payable by Seller in connection  therewith) at
Closing.

11.2 ......Minor  Damage. In the event that the Property is damaged or destroyed
by fire or other casualty  prior to the Closing,  and the cost of repair is less
than $300,000,  this transaction shall be closed in accordance with the terms of
this Contract,  notwithstanding  the damage or destruction;  provided,  however,
Seller  shall make such  repairs to the extent of any  recovery  from  insurance
carried on the Property if they can be reasonably  effected  before the Closing.
Subject  to  Section  11.3,  if Seller is unable to effect  such  repairs,  then
Purchaser shall receive all insurance proceeds pertaining thereto (plus a credit
against the Purchase Price in the amount of any deductible  payable by Seller in
connection therewith) at Closing.

11.3  ......Repairs.  To the extent that Seller  elects to commence  any repair,
replacement or  restoration of the Property prior to Closing,  then Seller shall
be entitled to receive and apply available  insurance proceeds to any portion of
such repair, replacement or restoration completed or installed prior to Closing,
with Purchaser being  responsible for completion of such repair,  replacement or
restoration after Closing from the balance of any available  insurance proceeds.
The  provisions  of this Section 11.3 shall  survive the Closing and delivery of
the Deed to Purchaser.

                                  ARTICLE 12..
                                 EMINENT DOMAIN

12.1  ......Eminent  Domain.  In the event  that,  at the time of  Closing,  any
material part of the Property is (or previously has been) acquired,  or is about
to be acquired,  by any  governmental  agency by the powers of eminent domain or
transfer in lieu  thereof (or in the event that at such time there is any notice
of any such acquisition or intent to acquire by any such  governmental  agency),
Purchaser  shall  have the right,  at  Purchaser's  option,  to  terminate  this
Contract by giving written notice within 10 days after Purchaser's  receipt from
Seller of notice of the occurrence of such event, and if Purchaser so terminates
this  Contract  shall  recover the  Deposit  hereunder  (subject to  Purchaser's
obligation under Section 3.5.2 to return all Third-Party Reports and information
and  Materials  provided to  Purchaser as a  pre-condition  to the return of the
Deposit).  If Purchaser  fails to  terminate  this  Contract  within such 10-day
period,  this  transaction  shall be closed in accordance with the terms of this
Contract  for the full  Purchase  Price and  Purchaser  shall  receive  the full
benefit of any  condemnation  award. It is expressly  agreed between the parties
hereto that this  section  shall in no way apply to  customary  dedications  for
public purposes which may be necessary for the development of the Property.

                                  ARTICLE 13..
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

13.1  ......Binding  Effect of Contract.  This Contract  shall not be binding on
either party until executed by both Purchaser and Seller. As provided in Section
2.3.5, the Escrow Agent's execution of this Contract shall not be a prerequisite
to its effectiveness.
13.2  ......Exhibits And Schedules.  All Exhibits and Schedules,  whether or not
annexed hereto, are a part of this Contract for all purposes.

13.3  ......Assignability.  This Contract is not assignable by Purchaser without
first obtaining the prior written approval of the Seller,  except that Purchaser
may assign this  Contract to one or more entities so long as (a) Purchaser is an

controlled  by, under common  control with,  or  controlling  another  person or
entity.

13.4  ......Binding  Effect.  Subject to Section 13.3,  this  Contract  shall be

that if the notice was sent by  overnight  courier or mail as  aforesaid  and is

reason of the absence of a signatory to acknowledge  receipt,  or by reason of a
change of  address  with  respect  to which the  addressor  did not have  either
knowledge or written notice  delivered in accordance with this  paragraph,  then
the first attempted delivery shall be deemed to constitute delivery.  Each party

unless  otherwise  specified  herein except for the conflict of laws  provisions
thereof.  Subject to Section  13.25,  all claims,  disputes and other matters in
question  arising out of or relating to this  Contract,  or the breach  thereof,

or other agent of the  parties)  may  disclose to any and all  persons,  without
limitation of any kind,  the tax treatment and any facts that may be relevant to

structure  of the  transaction  (including  the  identity  of any  party and any
information that could lead another to determine the identity of any party),  or
any other  information  to the extent  that such  disclosure  could  result in a
violation of any federal or state securities law.

13.15  .....Time Of The Essence.  It is expressly  agreed by the parties  hereto
that time is of the essence with respect to this Contract.

13.16 .....Waiver.  No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing

right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof,  but any such right
and  power  may be  exercised  from  time to time and as often as may be  deemed
expedient. No waiver, amendment, release, or modification of this Contract shall
be established by conduct,  custom, or course of dealing and all waivers must be
in writing and signed by the waiving party.

13.17 .....Attorneys Fees. In the event either party hereto commences litigation
or arbitration against the other to enforce its rights hereunder, the prevailing
party in such  litigation  shall be entitled to recover from the other party its
reasonable  attorneys'  fees and  expenses  incidental  to such  litigation  and
arbitration, including the cost of in-house counsel and any appeals.

13.18 .....Time Periods.  Should the last day of a time period fall on a weekend
or legal holiday,  the next Business Day thereafter  shall be considered the end
of the time period.

13.19 .....1031  Exchange.  Seller and Purchaser  acknowledge and agree that the
purchase  and sale of the  Property  may be part of a  tax-free  exchange  under
Section  1031 of the Code for  either  Purchaser  or Seller.  Each party  hereby
agrees to take all reasonable  steps on or before the Closing Date to facilitate
such exchange if requested by the other party, provided that (a) no party making
such  accommodation  shall be required to acquire any substitute  property,  (b)
such exchange shall not affect the representations,  warranties, liabilities and
obligations  of the  parties to each other  under  this  Contract,  (c) no party
making such accommodation  shall incur any additional cost, expense or liability
in connection with such exchange (other than expenses of reviewing and executing
documents  required in connection with such exchange),  and (d) no dates in this
Contract will be extended as a result thereof.  Notwithstanding  anything to the
contrary  contained in the foregoing,  if Seller so elects to close the transfer
of the  Property  as an  exchange,  then (i)  Seller,  at its sole  option,  may
delegate its  obligations to transfer the Property under this Contract,  and may
assign its rights to receive the Purchase  Price from  Purchaser,  to a deferred
exchange  intermediary  (an  "Intermediary")  or  to an  exchange  accommodation
titleholder, as the case may be; (ii) such delegation and assignment shall in no
way reduce,  modify or otherwise  affect the  obligations of Seller  pursuant to
this Contract;  (iii) Seller shall remain fully liable for its obligations under
this Contract as if such  delegation and assignment  shall not have taken place;
(iv)  Intermediary or exchange  accommodation  titleholder,  as the case may be,
shall have no liability to Purchaser; and (v) the closing of the transfer of the
Property to  Purchaser  shall be  undertaken  by direct deed from Seller (or, if
applicable,  from other  affiliates  of Seller whom Seller will cause to execute
such deeds) to Purchaser or to exchange accommodation  titleholder,  as the case
may be. Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, if
Purchaser  so elects to close the  acquisition  of the  Property as an exchange,
then (i) Purchaser,  at its sole option, may delegate its obligations to acquire
the  Property  under this  Contract,  and may  assign its rights to receive  the
Property  from  Seller,  to an  Intermediary  or to  an  exchange  accommodation
titleholder, as the case may be; (ii) such delegation and assignment shall in no
way reduce,  modify or otherwise affect the obligations of Purchaser pursuant to
this Contract;  (iii)  Purchaser  shall remain fully liable for its  obligations
under this Contract as if such  delegation and  assignment  shall not have taken
place; (iv) Intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder,  as the case may
be, shall have no liability to Seller; and (v) the closing of the acquisition of
the Property by Purchaser or the exchange accommodation titleholder, as the case
may be, shall be undertaken by direct deed from Seller (or, if applicable,  from
other  affiliates  of Seller whom  Seller  will cause to execute  such deeds) to
Purchaser (or to exchange accommodation titleholder, as the case may be).

13.20 ..... No Personal Liability of Officers, Trustees or Directors of Seller's
Partners.  Purchaser  acknowledges  that this Contract is entered into by Seller
which is a California  limited  partnership,  and Purchaser  agrees that none of
Seller's  Indemnified  Parties  shall  have any  personal  liability  under this
Contract  or  any  document   executed  in  connection  with  the   transactions
contemplated by this Contract.

13.21 .....No Exclusive Negotiations.  Seller shall have the right, at all times
prior to the expiration of the Feasibility  Period, to solicit backup offers and
enter into discussions,  negotiations, or any other communications concerning or
related to the sale of the Property  with any  third-party;  provided,  however,
that such  communications  are subject to the terms of this  Contract,  and that
Seller shall not enter into any contract or binding  Contract with a third-party
for  the  sale  of the  Property  unless  such  Contract  is  contingent  on the
termination  of this  Contract  without the  Property  having  been  conveyed to
Purchaser.

13.22  .....ADA  Disclosure.  Purchaser  acknowledges  that the  Property may be
subject to the  federal  Americans  With  Disabilities  Act (the  "ADA") and the
federal Fair Housing Act (the "FHA").  The ADA  requires,  among other  matters,
that tenants and/or owners of "public  accommodations"  remove barriers in order
to make the Property  accessible to disabled persons and provide  auxiliary aids
and services for hearing,  vision or speech  impaired  persons.  Seller makes no
warranty,  representation  or  guarantee of any type or kind with respect to the
Property's  compliance  with the ADA or the FHA (or any  similar  state or local
law), and Seller expressly disclaims any such representation.

13.23 .....No Recording. Purchaser shall not cause or allow this Contract or any
contract or other document related hereto,  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.  If the
Purchaser  records this Contract or any other  memorandum  or evidence  thereof,
Purchaser shall be in default of its obligations under this Contract.  Purchaser
hereby appoints the Seller as Purchaser's attorney-in-fact to prepare and record
any documents  necessary to effect the nullification and release of the Contract
or  other  memorandum  or  evidence  thereof  from  the  public  records.   This
appointment shall be coupled with an interest and irrevocable.

13.24  .....Relationship of Parties.  Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree
that the relationship  established between the parties pursuant to this Contract
is only that of a seller and a purchaser  of  property.  Neither  Purchaser  nor
Seller is, nor shall  either hold itself out to be, the agent,  employee,  joint
venturer or partner of the other party.

13.25 .....Dispute Resolution. Any controversy,  dispute, or claim of any nature
arising  out of, in  connection  with,  or in  relation  to the  interpretation,
performance,  enforcement  or breach of this Contract (and any closing  document
executed in connection herewith), including any claim based on contract, tort or
statute,  shall be resolved at the written request of any party to this Contract
by binding arbitration. The arbitration shall be administered in accordance with
the  then  current  Commercial  Arbitration  Rules of the  American  Arbitration
Association.  Any matter to be settled by arbitration  shall be submitted to the
American Arbitration  Association in the state in which the Property is located.
The  parties  shall  attempt  to  designate  one  arbitrator  from the  American
Arbitration  Association.  If they are  unable  to do so  within  30 days  after
written  demand  therefor,  then  the  American  Arbitration  Association  shall
designate  an  arbitrator.  The  arbitration  shall be final  and  binding,  and
enforceable in any court of competent  jurisdiction.  The arbitrator shall award
attorneys'  fees  (including  those  of  in-house  counsel)  and  costs  to  the
prevailing  party and charge the cost of  arbitration  to the party which is not
the prevailing  party.  Notwithstanding  anything  herein to the contrary,  this
Section  13.25 shall not prevent  Purchaser or Seller from seeking and obtaining
equitable  relief  on  a  temporary  or  permanent  basis,  including,   without
limitation, a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or permanent injunction
or similar equitable relief, from a court of competent  jurisdiction  located in
the state in which the Property is located (to which all parties  hereto consent
to venue  and  jurisdiction)  by  instituting  a legal  action  or  other  court
proceeding  in order to protect or enforce  the rights of such party  under this
Contract or to prevent  irreparable  harm and injury.  The court's  jurisdiction
over any such equitable matter,  however, shall be expressly limited only to the
temporary,  preliminary,  or permanent equitable relief sought; all other claims
initiated  under this  Contract  between the parties  hereto shall be determined
through final and binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 13.25.

13.26 .....AIMCO  Marks.  Purchaser agrees that Seller,  the Property Manager or
AIMCO, or their respective  affiliates,  are the sole owners of all right, title
and  interest  in and to the AIMCO  Marks  (or have the right to use such  AIMCO
Marks  pursuant to license  agreements  with third  parties)  and that no right,
title or interest in or to the AIMCO Marks is granted, transferred,  assigned or
conveyed as a result of this Contract.  Purchaser  further agrees that Purchaser
will not use the AIMCO Marks for any purpose.

13.27  .....Non-Solicitation  of Employees.  Purchaser  acknowledges  and agrees
that,  without the express written consent of Seller,  neither Purchaser nor any
of  Purchaser's  employees,  affiliates  or agents shall solicit any of Seller's
employees  or  any  employees  located  at the  Property  (or  any  of  Seller's
affiliates'  employees  located at any property  owned by such  affiliates)  for
potential employment.

13.28  .....Survival.  Except for (a) all of the  provisions  of this Article 13
(other than  Section  13.19,  13.21 and 13.23),  and (b) any  provision  of this
Contract which  expressly  states that it shall so survive,  and (c) any payment
obligation  of Purchaser  under this Contract  (the  foregoing  (a), (b) and (c)
referred  to  herein  as the  "Survival  Provisions"),  none  of the  terms  and
provisions of this Contract shall survive the termination of this Contract, and,
if the Contract is not so  terminated,  all of the terms and  provisions of this
Contract (other than the Survival  Provisions)  shall be merged into the Closing
documents and shall not survive Closing.

13.29 .....Multiple  Purchasers.  As used in this Contract, the term "Purchaser"
means all  entities  acquiring  any  interest in the  Property  at the  Closing,
including,  without  limitation,  any  assignee(s)  of  the  original  Purchaser
pursuant to Section 13.3 of this Contract. In the event that "Purchaser" has any
obligations or makes any  covenants,  representations  or warranties  under this
Agreement,  the same shall be made jointly and severally by all entities being a
Purchaser  hereunder.  In the event that Seller  receives notice from any entity
being a Purchaser hereunder,  the same shall be deemed to constitute notice from
all entities being a Purchaser  hereunder.  In the event that any entity being a
Purchaser hereunder takes any action,  breaches any obligation or otherwise acts
pursuant  to the  terms of this  Contract,  the same  shall be  deemed to be the
action of the other  entity(ies)  being a Purchaser  hereunder and the action of
"Purchaser"  under this  Contract.  In the event that Seller is required to give
notice or take action with respect to Purchaser  under this Contract,  notice to
any entity  being a Purchaser  hereunder  or action  with  respect to any entity
being a Purchaser  hereunder shall be a notice or action to all entities being a
Purchaser  hereunder.  In the event that any entity being a Purchaser  hereunder
desires to bring an action or arbitration  against  Seller,  such action must be
joined by all entities being a Purchaser hereunder in order to be effective.  In
the event that there is any  agreement  by Seller to pay any amount  pursuant to
this Contract to Purchaser under any  circumstance,  that amount shall be deemed
maximum  aggregate amount to be paid to all parties being a Purchaser  hereunder
and not an amount that can be paid to each party being a Purchaser hereunder. In
the event that  Seller is required  to return the  Initial  Deposit,  Additional
Deposit or other amount to Purchaser, Seller shall return the same to any entity
being a  Purchaser  hereunder  and,  upon such  return,  shall  have no  further
liability to any other entity being a Purchaser  hereunder for such amount.  The
foregoing  provisions  also shall  apply to any  documents,  including,  without
limitation,  the  General  Assignment  and  Assumption  and the  Assignment  and
Assumption of Leases and Security  Deposits,  executed in  connection  with this
Contract and the transaction(s) contemplated hereby.

                                  ARTICLE 14..
                           LEAD-BASED PAINT DISCLOSURE

14.1  ......Disclosure.  Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledge delivery of the
Lead Based Paint Disclosure attached as Exhibit G hereto. The provisions of this
Section 14.1 shall survive the Closing and delivery of the Deed to Purchaser.

14.2  ......Intentionally Deleted.

      THIS SECOND AMENDMENT TO PURCHASE AND SALE CONTRACT (this  "Amendment") is

                                    Recitals:

      A. WHEREAS,  Seller and Purchaser  entered into that certain  Purchase and

acknowledged, the Parties agree to amend the Contract as follows:

                                  Agreement:

1. Closing  Credit.  Provided that Purchaser fully complies with its obligations
under  the  Contract,  Purchaser  shall  receive  a  credit  in  the  amount  of
$100,000.00  (the  "Credit")  against the Purchase  Price at Closing.  Purchaser

Letter"),  (b) Seller  shall have no  obligation  or liability  whatsoever  with
respect  to any of the  matters  set  forth  in the  Purchaser  Letter,  and (c)
Purchaser hereby forever discharges and releases Seller from all Losses relating

2. Feasibility Period.  Purchaser hereby agrees that it has completed its review

Contract or otherwise) to any matter concerning the Title Documents, the Survey,
the Property Contracts,  the Leases, the physical condition of the Property,  or
otherwise  with respect to the Property.  Purchaser  agrees that Seller has made
all required deliveries and performed all of Seller's required obligations under
the Contract  through the date hereof.  With the sole  exception of  Purchaser's
right to terminate  the Contract  pursuant to Section 4.5.4  thereof,  Purchaser
agrees that Purchaser's  right to terminate the Contract is permanently  waived,
the Deposit is  non-refundable,  and  Purchaser's  obligation  to  purchase  the
Property is non-contingent and unconditional except only for satisfaction of the
conditions expressly stated in Section 8.1 of the Contract.

3. Easement Agreement.

            (a) The following new Sections 5.2.11 and 5.2.12 are hereby added to
                the Contract:

            substantially  the form attached  hereto as Exhibit H,
            duly executed by AIMCO/Brandywine, L.P.

            5.2.12 A termination  of  declaration,  executed by Seller and AIMCO
            Brandywine,  L.P.,  with  respect  to that  certain  Declaration  of
            Covenants  and Mutual  Easements  dated  April 5, 1983 and  recorded

            Recorder, Salt Lake County, Utah."

            (c)  The  following  new  Section  5.3.12  is  hereby  added  to the
                 Contract:

            "5.3.12 An easement agreement, in
            substantially  the form attached  hereto as Exhibit H,
            duly executed by Purchaser."

            (d) The form  easement  attached to this  Amendment  as Exhibit H is
                hereby appended to the Contract as Exhibit H.

4. Loan Assumption and Modification.

            (a) The following is hereby added to the end of Section 4.5.2 of the
                Contract:

            "In  connection  with  obtaining  the Loan  Assumption  and Release,
            Seller  acknowledges  that Purchaser shall negotiate with Lender for
            (i) a modification (the  "Modification") of the Note and the Assumed
            Loan  Documents to provide for a 30-year  amortization  period,  and
            (ii) secondary financing (the "Additional Financing") in the minimum
            amount of $3,400,000.00  in connection with Purchaser's  purchase of
            the Property (the Loan Assumption and Release, the Modification, and
            the  Additional  Financing  collectively  referred  to herein as the
            "Loan Assumption and Modification")." Purchaser shall be responsible
            for all Lender Fees imposed or charged by Lender in connection  with
            the Loan Assumption and Modification."

            (b) Section 4.5.4 of the Contract is hereby  amended and restated in
                its entirety as follows:

                  4.5.4 If (a) Purchaser  fully  complies  with its  obligations
      under this Contract  (including this Section 4.5) and the  requirements of
      the  Assumed  Loan  Documents  in  connection   with  obtaining  the  Loan
      Assumption and Modification, (b) Purchaser uses best efforts to obtain the
      Loan  Assumption and  Modification,  and (c) Purchaser does not obtain the
      consent of the Lender to the Loan Assumption and Modification on or before
      3 Business Days prior to the Closing Date (the "Loan Approval Period") for
      reasons  other than (i)  Purchaser's  failure  to submit a  complete  Loan
      Assumption  Application,  or  (ii)  Purchaser's   creditworthiness,   then
      Purchaser  shall have the right,  on or before the  expiration of the Loan
      Approval  Period,  to give Escrow Agent notice  terminating  this Contract
      based solely on the fact that the Loan Assumption and Modification has not
      been approved by the Lender (the "Loan  Approval  Termination"),  in which
      event this Contract  shall be of no further  force and effect,  subject to
      and except for Purchaser's liability pursuant to Section 3.3 and any other
      provision of this Contract  which  survives such  termination,  and Escrow
      Agent shall forthwith return the Deposit to Purchaser.  If Purchaser fails
      to  provide  Seller  with  written  notice  of  termination  prior  to the
      expiration  of the Loan  Approval  Period  in strict  accordance  with the
      notice  provisions of this Contract,  Purchaser's right to terminate under
      this Section 4.5.4 shall be permanently waived, this Contract shall remain
      in full  force  and  effect,  the  Deposit  shall be  non-refundable,  and
      Purchaser's  obligation  to  obtain  the  Lender's  approval  of the  Loan
      Assumption   and   Release  and  to  purchase   the   Property   shall  be
      non-contingent  and  unconditional  except  only for  satisfaction  of the
      conditions  expressly  stated in Section  8.1.  Purchaser  recognizes  and
      agrees that if either (x) the Loan Approval  Period  expires and Purchaser
      is entitled to but does not terminate this Contract, or (y) Purchaser does
      not  obtain  the  consent  of  the  Lender  to  the  Loan  Assumption  and
      Modification  on or  before 3  Business  Days  prior to the  Closing  Date
      because either (I) Purchaser's failed to submit a complete Loan Assumption
      Application,   or  (II)  Lender   determined   that   Purchaser   was  not
      creditworthy,  the  Loan  Assumption  and  Modification  shall  not  be  a
      condition to Purchaser's  obligation to close, and, if the Loan Assumption
      and Release is not  obtained and Closing has not occurred on or before the
      Closing Date, Purchaser shall be in default under this Contract, entitling
      the Seller to terminate this Contract, in which event the Deposit shall be
      immediately released to Seller by the Escrow Agent and this Contract shall
      be of no further force and effect,  subject to and except for  Purchaser's
      liability pursuant to Section 3.3 and any other provision of this Contract
      which survives such  termination.  Under no circumstances  shall Seller be
      required to cause the pay-off of the Loan at the Closing.

            (c) The  following  new  Section  1.1.34.5  is  hereby  added to the
                Contract:

            "1.1.34.5 "Loan Assumption and Modification"  shall have the meaning
            section forth in Section 4.5.2."

            (d) The  following  new  Section  1.1.2.5  is  hereby  added  to the
                Contract:

            "1.1.2.5 "Additional   Financing"  shall  have  the
            meaning set forth in Section 4.5.2."

            (e) The  following  new  Section  1.1.39.5  is  hereby  added to the
             Contract:

            "1.1.39.5   "Modification"  shall have the meaning set
            forth in Section 4.5.2"

5.  Miscellaneous.  The  following  provisions  shall apply with respect to this
Amendment:

            (a) Except as modified  herein,  the Contract,  is in full force and
effect and is hereby ratified by Seller and Purchaser.

            (b) Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the same meaning
as set forth in the Contract.

            (c) In the  event of any  conflict  between  the  Contract  and this
Amendment, the terms and conditions of this Amendment shall control.

            (d) This  Amendment may be executed in  counterparts,  each of which
(or any  combination of which) when signed by all of the parties shall be deemed
an  original,  but  all of  which  when  taken  together  shall  constitute  one
agreement.  Executed  copies  hereof may be  delivered  by  telecopier  and upon
receipt  shall be deemed  originals  and binding  upon the parties  hereto,  and
actual originals shall be promptly delivered thereafter.
