         (b) Notwithstanding Section 3.2(a) above, the Purchase Price shall be

Agent, as an earnest money deposit hereunder (including interest at any time
accrued thereon, the "Deposit"). The Deposit shall be held in escrow by the

the Sellers by reason of the material breach by any of the Buyers of its
obligations hereunder, the Deposit shall be paid to the Sellers as liquidated
damages and not a penalty with such payment, once received, being Seller's sole
and exclusive remedy against the Buyers. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this
SECTION 3.3, the Escrow Agent shall not disburse the Deposit until the earlier
to occur of (i) receipt by the Escrow Agent of joint written instructions,
signed by the Sellers and the Buyers, or (ii) entry of a final and nonappealable


                                                                               6


adjudication of the Bankruptcy Court determining which Party is entitled to
receive the Deposit. In the event of a dispute between the Parties with respect
to the Deposit, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Deposit with the Bankruptcy
Court and commence an action to determine the proper disposition of such
Deposit.

         The Sellers represent and warrant to the Buyers as follows:

         Section 4.1 Organization. Each Seller is a corporation duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of
incorporation. The Sellers are duly qualified or licensed to do business as a
foreign entity and are in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the

the failure to be so qualified or be so licensed would not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

         Section 4.2 Authorization of Transaction. Subject to the entry of the
Approval Order, each Seller has all requisite power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which
it is a party. Subject to the entry of the Approval Order, this Agreement
constitutes, and each of such Ancillary Documents when executed and delivered by
such Seller will constitute, a valid and legally binding obligation of such
Seller (assuming that this Agreement and such Ancillary Documents constitute
valid and legally binding obligations of the other parties thereto), enforceable
in accordance with its terms and conditions, except as enforceability may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium,
fraudulent transfer and similar Laws of general applicability relating to or
affecting creditors' rights, or by general equity principles, including
principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.

         Section 4.3 Noncontravention; Consents. Except for the Bankruptcy
Court's entry of the Approval Order, no material consent, release,
authorization, order or approval of, or filing or registration with, any
governmental authority or other person is required for the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents to be executed and
delivered by the Sellers hereunder and the consummation by the Sellers of the
transactions contemplated. Except for the Bankruptcy Court's entry of the
Approval Order, neither the execution and delivery by the Sellers of this
Agreement and the Ancillary Documents, nor the consummation by the Sellers of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will conflict with or result
in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Sellers'
respective certificates of incorporation or by-laws, any statute or
administrative regulation, or of any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree
of any court or any governmental authority or of any arbitration award, which
conflict or breach would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect on the Joint Ventures or the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

         Section 4.4 Title. To the Sellers' Knowledge, AIA has good title to its
membership interests in the Joint Ventures, and AHD has good title to the

         Section 4.5 No Defaults. There are no uncured defaults on the part of
the Sellers under the Construction Contracts, and no party to any contract set
forth on Exhibit B attached hereto is entitled to any cure as that term is used
in 11 U.S.C.ss.365(b).

         Section 4.6 LIMITATION ON WARRANTIES. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN
THIS ARTICLE IV OR IN ANY ANCILLARY DOCUMENT, NONE OF THE SELLERS OR ANY
AFFILIATE OF THE SELLERS MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN RESPECT OF ANY OF THE CONSTRUCTION
CONTRACTS, JOINT VENTURES, THE MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS THEREOF OR OTHERWISE, OR
WITH RESPECT TO ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED TO THE BUYERS, INCLUDING WITH RESPECT
TO MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE. ALL OTHER
REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT
SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE IV OR IN ANY ANCILLARY DOCUMENT, THE
SELLERS ARE SELLING, ASSIGNING AND TRANSFERRING THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS AND

                                   ARTICLE V
                  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE BUYERS

         The Buyers represent and warrant to the Sellers as follows:

         Section 5.1 Organization. Each Buyer is duly organized, formed or
incorporated and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
state of such organization, formation or incorporation. Each Buyer is duly
qualified or licensed to do business as a foreign entity and is in good standing
in each jurisdiction where such qualification or license is required, except
where the failure to so qualify or be so licensed would not reasonably be
expected to adversely affect its ability to consummate the transactions
contemplated by, and discharge its obligations under, this Agreement and the
Ancillary Documents to which it is a party (a "Buyer Material Adverse Effect").
Each Buyer has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as
currently conducted.

         Section 5.2 Authorization of Transaction. Each Buyer has all requisite
power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and each of the
Ancillary Documents to which it is a party, and to perform its obligations
hereunder and thereunder. This Agreement constitutes, and each of the Ancillary
Documents executed and delivered by such Buyer constitutes, a valid and legally
binding obligation of such Buyer (assuming that this Agreement and such
Ancillary Documents will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the
other parties thereto), enforceable in accordance with its terms and conditions,
except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and similar Laws of general
applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights or by general equity
principles, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and
fair dealing.


                                                                               8


         Section 5.3 Noncontravention; Consents.

         (a) The execution and delivery by each of the Buyers of this Agreement
and the Ancillary Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation by each
of the Buyers of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, do not: (i)
violate any Law to which such Buyer or their respective assets are subject, (ii)
conflict with or result in a breach of any provision of such Buyer's
organizational or governance documents, or (iii) create a breach, default,
termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation under any contract,
agreement or binding commitment to which such Buyer is a party or by which such
Buyer or any of its assets or properties is bound or subject, except for any of
the foregoing in the case of CLAUSES (I) and (III), that would not reasonably be
expected to result in a Buyer Material Adverse Effect.

         (b) No notices, permits, consents, approvals, authorizations,
qualifications or orders of Governmental Entities or third parties are required
for the consummation by the Buyers of the transactions contemplated hereby or by
the Ancillary Documents, other than such of the foregoing that, if not obtained
or made, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Buyer Material Adverse
Effect.

         Section 5.4 Litigation. There are no legal, administrative, arbitration
or other formal proceedings or governmental investigations pending or, to the
knowledge of the Buyers threatened, that question the validity of this Agreement
or any of the Ancillary Documents, or any action taken or to be taken by the
Buyers in connection with this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Documents,
other than such of the foregoing that would not individually or reasonably be
expected to result in a Buyer Material Adverse Effect.

         Section 5.5 Availability of Funds. The Buyers have funds available to
them sufficient to pay to the Sellers the Purchase Price and to perform all of
the obligations of the Buyers pursuant to, and to consummate the transactions
contemplated by, this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents to which it
is a party.

         Section 5.6 Accredited Investor. Each Buyer is an "accredited investor"
within the meaning of Section 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"). The Buyers have no present plan or intention
to sell, transfer, exchange, pledge or otherwise dispose of, or to effect any
other transaction which results in a reduction in the risk of ownership of, any
of the equity interests in any of the Joint Ventures that the Buyers may
acquire. The Buyers understand that (i) the sale of such equity interests is
intended to be exempt from registration under the 1933 Act by virtue of Section
4(2) of the 1933 Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder based in part on the
representations and warranties of the Buyers contained herein, (ii) no
registration statement relating to the issuance of such equity interests has
been or will be filed with the federal Securities Exchange Commission or any
state securities commission, and (iii) such equity interests are restricted
securities that cannot be resold absent registration under applicable securities
Laws or an exemption therefrom. The Buyers are acquiring such equity interests
solely for their own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view
to the resale or distribution thereof. The Buyers, together with their
attorneys, accountants, and/or tax advisors, have such knowledge and experience
in financial and business matters to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of an investment in such equity interests and have had the opportunity to
ask questions of, and have received answers to their satisfaction



                                                                               9


from, the Sellers concerning the Joint Ventures and other matters pertaining to
an investment in the membership interests thereof.

         Section 5.7 LIMITATION ON THE WARRANTIES OF THE SELLERS. THE BUYERS
HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH
IN ARTICLE IV, NONE OF THE SELLERS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES MAKE, and the
Buyers are not relying upon, ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN RESPECT OF ANY OF THE CONSTRUCTION
CONTRACTS, JOINT VENTURES, MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS THEREOF OR OTHERWISE, OR WITH
RESPECT TO ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED TO THE BUYERS, INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE, AND THE BUYERS ARE
ACQUIRING THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS AND JOINT VENTURES ON AN "AS-IS, WHERE-IS"
BASIS.



                                   ARTICLE VI
                                    COVENANTS

         Section 6.1 General. Each of the Parties will use commercially
reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions and to do or cause
to be done, as soon as possible, all things necessary, proper or advisable
(subject to any Laws) to consummate the Closing and the other transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, including the negotiation, execution and
delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents. Neither of the
Parties will, without prior written consent of the other Party, take or fail to
take, or permit their respective Affiliates to take or fail to take, any action,
which would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impede, interfere
with or delay the consummation, as soon as possible, of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents; provided that nothing
in this SECTION 6.1 will require a Party to cure any breach or inaccuracy with
respect to any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any
Ancillary Documents.

         Section 6.2 Notices and Consents. Prior to the Closing Date, each of
the Buyers and the Sellers will use commercially reasonable efforts to give all
notices required to be given and to obtain all material consents, approvals or
authorizations of any third parties (including any Governmental Entity) that are
required to be obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. In connection with the foregoing, each Party will (a) promptly notify
the other Party of any written communication to that Party or its Affiliates
from any Governmental Entity and, subject to Law, provide the other Party with a
copy of any written communication to any of the foregoing and (b) not
participate in any substantive meeting or discussion with any Governmental
Entity in respect of any filings, investigation or inquiry concerning the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement unless it consults with the other
Party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, gives
the other Party the opportunity to attend and participate thereat, with respect
to this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents and the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby. Nothing contained herein will require any Party to pay any
consideration (except filing and application fees) to any other Person from whom
any such consents, approvals or authorizations are requested.


                                                                              10


         Section 6.3 Transfer Taxes. Subject to the Approval Order, the Buyers

assignment, transfer and delivery of the Construction Contracts and Joint
Ventures to the Buyers. The Buyers will timely file all Tax Returns required to
be filed in connection with the payment of such Taxes.

                                  ARTICLE VII

at any time prior to Closing:

         (a) by the mutual written consent of the Sellers and the Buyers;

competent jurisdiction or governmental body, authority or agency having
jurisdiction shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other
action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions as a

action shall have become final and nonappealable;

         (c) by the Sellers, in the event any of the conditions set forth in

SECTION 8.1(c) shall not be available to the Sellers if the failure of such

recipient party has specified by prior written notice to the sending party in
accordance with the preceding.

         Section 9.2 Expenses; No Offset. Except as expressly provided in this
Agreement, each of the Buyers and the Sellers, and their respective Affiliates,
will bear their respective costs and expenses (including legal, accounting and
investment banking fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement
and the transactions contemplated hereby, whether or not such transactions are
consummated. No Party may make any offset against amounts due to any other Party
pursuant to this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents or otherwise.

         Section 9.3 Bulk Sales or Transfer Laws. The Sellers shall obtain, in
the Approval Order, a provision waiving compliance by the Sellers and the Buyers
with the provisions of any bulk sales laws that may be applicable to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

nor any of the rights, interests or obligations provided by this Agreement may
be assigned by either Party (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without
the prior written consent of the other Party, provided, however, that the Buyers
may assign their rights under this Agreement to one or more of its Affiliates,
but no such assignment shall relieve the Buyers of any of its obligations under
this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence and except as otherwise
expressly provided



                                                                              14

written instrument executed and delivered by the Sellers and the Buyers. At any
time prior to the Closing, the Parties may extend the time for performance of or
waive compliance with any of the covenants or agreements of the other Party to

enforced.

         Section 9.6 Severability; Specific Performance. Whenever possible, each
provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be
effective and valid under Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to
be prohibited by or invalid under Law, such provision will be ineffective only
to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the
remainder of this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other
Party may be irreparably damaged if any provision of this Agreement is not
performed in accordance with its terms or otherwise is breached. Accordingly,
each Party agrees that the other Party may be entitled, subject to a
determination by a court of competent jurisdiction, to injunctive relief to
prevent any such failure of performance or breach and to enforce specifically
this Agreement and any of the terms and provisions hereof.

         Section 9.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all such

         Section 9.8 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and will not constitute a part of
this Agreement.

         Section 9.9 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement will not
