operations. Such Existing General Partner has been advised by AERC to
seek expert legal, tax, and accounting advice in connection with such
Existing General Partner's investment decision;
31
37
(vii) In order to evaluate the merits and the risks inherent
in acquiring and holding the Units, AERC has made available to each
Existing General Partner, during the course of this transaction and
prior to the investment in the Units, the opportunity to ask questions
of, and receive answers from, AERC and those persons acting on AERC's
behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of this transaction. Such
Existing General Partner has had all such questions answered to its
satisfaction and has been supplied all additional information deemed
necessary by such Existing General Partner to verify the accuracy of
the information provided to it by AERC to the extent that AERC
possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable
effort or expense. Such Existing General Partner has had a full and
complete opportunity to examine all relevant documents relating to the
Partnership and such Existing General Partner's interest and
prospective interest therein relating to AERC that have been made
available by AERC and is familiar with the contents thereof and, in
particular, with all risk factors associated with any investment in the
Partnership. Each Existing General Partner has been provided the
opportunity, to such Existing General Partner's satisfaction, to ask
questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of
this transaction, has had all such questions answered to such Existing
General Partner's satisfaction and has been supplied all additional
information deemed necessary by such Existing General Partner to verify
the accuracy of the information supplied to such Existing General
Partner; each Existing General Partner is familiar with the condition
of the Partnership, and such Existing General Partner has had access to
such information as such Existing General Partner deems material in
making the investment decision called for; and each Existing General
Partner believes that the Units are securities of the kind such
Existing General Partner wishes to acquire and hold for investment; and
(viii) The Existing General Partners who are Parties jointly
and severally represent and warrant that the Partnership is a duly
organized and validly existing Florida general partnership; that the
Existing General Partners are all the partners thereof; that the
Partnership presently owns no property and conducts no operations
other than those which relate directly or indirectly to one or more
of the Development Partnerships; and that all requisite partnership
action has been taken by the Existing General Partners and is
presently in effect to authorize, for and on behalf of the
Partnership, the transactions contemplated hereby.
9.04 MIG REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. MIG represents and warrants as of the

Partnerships free and clear of all pledges, liens, security interests,
encumbrances and restrictions of any nature whatsoever (except for those set

Partnerships); that it is a duly organized and validly existing Florida
corporation in good standing; that all of its shareholders and their interests

copy of its articles of incorporation or charter and its bylaws are attached
hereto as EXHIBIT F; and, that all requisite action of shareholders and
directors necessary to authorize the transactions contemplated hereby has been

transactions contemplated hereby.

9 shall be deemed renewed by the Parties on the Initial Closing Date and, with

at such time and shall survive the closings of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement for a period equal to the applicable statute of limitations.

15. ASSIGNMENT
15.01 AERC may freely assign all of its right, title and interest in and to
this Agreement to a wholly owned subsidiary of, or other entity controlled by,
AERC, but not to any other person or entity without the prior written consent
of at least three of the Existing General Partners and all of the Existing H/P
Limited Partners, which consents may be withheld. With respect to any
assignment by AERC (whether to a wholly owned subsidiary of, or other entity
controlled by, AERC or any other person): such assignment shall not relieve
AERC of its obligations under this Agreement; and,
36
42
AERC will deliver to all of the other Parties a copy of all documents of
transfer or assignment promptly after the assignment occurs.
15.02 The Existing Limited Partners and the Existing General Partners may not
assign their rights under this Agreement to any person other than an Existing
Limited Partner or an Existing General Partner without the prior written consent
of AERC, which consent may be withheld. With respect to any assignment by an
Existing Limited Partner or an Existing General Partner (whether or not the
consent of AERC is required therefor): such assignment shall not relieve the
assigning Party of its obligations under this Agreement; and, the assignor will
deliver to AERC a copy of all documents of transfer or assignment promptly after
the assignment occurs.
15.03 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any of
the General Partner Interest Purchase Agreements (and the provisions of this
Paragraph 15.03 shall govern and control over any inconsistent provisions
herein or therein): (i) It is anticipated that, at or before the Initial
Closing, by a written agreement signed by Gutin and accepted in writing by
Wright, Gutin will transfer and assign to Wright or Wright's designee all of
her right, title and interests in, to, under and concerning all of the
Development Partnerships; (ii) if Wright accepts such transfer and assignment
and assumes in writing (such writing being referred to herein as a "TRANSFER
AND ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT") all of Gutin's obligations and liabilities with
respect to the interests thereby transferred and assigned, then (A)
simultaneously therewith, and automatically and without any further act, deed
or notice of any kind, Wright (or his designee, as the case may be) shall have
and succeed to all of what formerly had been Gutin's right, title and
interests therein, thereto, thereunder and concerning therewith and Gutin
shall be completely, unconditionally and forever released and discharged from,
and relieved of, any and all obligations and liabilities thereunder or with
respect thereto (except for any obligations or liabilities to Wright as may be
provided for in such Transfer and Assumption Agreement) and (B) Wright will be
obligated under this Agreement to cause the interests in the Development
Partnerships it had so acquired from Gutin to be transferred and assigned to
AERC on and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement;
and (iii) if Wright or Gutin delivers to AERC or to the Partnership a copy of
a Transfer and Assumption Agreement, not later than two business days after
its receipt thereof both AERC and the Partnership will execute and deliver to
Gutin a written instrument reasonably satisfactory to Gutin completely,
unconditionally and forever releasing and discharging Gutin from, and
relieving Gutin of, any and all obligations and liabilities of any and every
kind whatsoever.
16. INDEMNIFICATION.
16.01 INDEMNIFICATION OF AERC BY EXISTING LIMITED PARTNERS. Each Existing
Limited Partner who is a Party severally agrees to indemnify and hold AERC
harmless from and against any and all loss, cost, liability, damage or expense
incurred by AERC arising out of any material breach of any representation and
warranty made by such Existing Limited Partner hereunder (individually, an
"EXISTING LIMITED PARTNER'S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION" and collectively, the
"EXISTING LIMITED PARTNERS' INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS").
37
43
16.02 INDEMNIFICATION OF AERC BY EXISTING GENERAL PARTNERS. Each Existing
General Partner who is a Party severally agrees to indemnify and hold AERC
harmless from and against any and all loss, cost, liability, damage or expense
incurred by AERC arising out of any material breach of any representation or
warranty made by such Existing General Partner hereunder (individually, an
"EXISTING GENERAL PARTNER'S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION" and collectively, the
"EXISTING GENERAL PARTNERS' INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS").
16.03 INDEMNIFICATION OF EXISTING GENERAL PARTNERS AND EXISTING LIMITED
PARTNERS BY AERC. AERC agrees to indemnify and hold each and all of the
Existing General Partners and the Existing Limited Partners harmless from and
against any and all loss, cost, damage, liability or expense incurred by any
or all of them arising out of any material breach of any representation or
warranty made by AERC hereunder (collectively, the "AERC INDEMNIFICATION
OBLIGATIONS").
16.04 CLAIMS FOR INDEMNIFICATION. The following procedures shall apply if a
claimed breach or other occurrence or matter giving rise to a claim of
indemnification is given by the party seeking indemnification (the "INDEMNIFIED
PARTY") to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the "INDEMNIFYING
PARTY"):
(i) Procedure for Indemnification with Respect to Third Party
Claims. If the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this
Article 16 with respect to an Existing Limited Partner Indemnification
Obligation, an Existing General Partner Indemnification Obligation, or
an AERC Indemnification Obligation, as the case may be (collectively,
an "INDEMNIFIABLE CLAIM"), resulting from the assertion of liability by
any third party (i.e., a person not a Party), it shall give notice to
the Indemnifying Party after it becomes aware of any such Indemnifiable
Claim (such notice to be given in any event within the shorter of 15
days or the number of days necessary to respond to the Indemnifiable
Claim), which notice shall set forth such material information with
respect to such Indemnifiable Claim as is then reasonably available to
the Indemnified Party. If any such liability is asserted against the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying
Party of such liability, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, if
it so elects by written notice delivered to the Indemnified Party
within 10 days after receiving the Indemnified Party's notice, to
assume the defense of such asserted liability with counsel selected by
the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified
Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) the Indemnified Party shall
have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be payable by the Indemnified Party;
(b) the Indemnified Party shall not have any obligation to give any
notice of any assertion of liability by a third party unless such
assertion is in writing; and (c) the rights of the Indemnified Party to
be indemnified in respect of Indemnifiable Claims resulting from the
assertion of liability by third parties shall not be adversely affected
by its failure to give notice pursuant to the foregoing provisions
unless, and, if so, only to the extent that, the Indemnifying Party is
materially prejudiced by such failure. With respect to any assertion of
liability by a third party that results in an Indemnifiable Claim, the
Parties shall make available to each other all relevant information in
their possession which is material to any
38
44
such assertion. In the event that the Indemnifying Party fails to
assume the defense of the Indemnified Party against any such
Indemnifiable Claim within 15 days after receipt of the Indemnified
Party's notice of such Indemnifiable Claim, the Indemnified Party
shall have the right to defend, compromise or settle such
Indemnifiable Claim on behalf, for the account, and at the risk of
the Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding anything in this Paragraph
16.04 to the contrary: (i) if there is a reasonable likelihood that
an Indemnifiable Claim may materially and adversely damage the
Indemnified Party, other than as a result of money damages or other
money payments (each, a "NON-MONETARY INDEMNIFIABLE CLAIM"), then the
Indemnified Party shall provide written notice to the Indemnifying
Party to such effect explaining the reasons therefor and, if the
Indemnifying Party consents thereto (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withhold or delayed), the Indemnifying Party shall have
the right, at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to
defend such Indemnifiable Claim; and (ii) neither the Indemnifying
Party nor the Indemnified Party shall, without the other's prior
written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), settle or compromise (A) any Indemnifiable Claim or consent
to entry of any judgment in respect of any Indemnifiable Claim, in
each case involving money damages or other money payments, unless
such settlement, compromise or consent includes as an unconditional
term the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified
Party a release from all liability in respect of such Indemnifiable
Claim or (B) any Non-monetary Indemnifiable Claim.
(ii) Procedure For Indemnification with Respect to Non-Third
Party Claims. If the Indemnified Party asserts the existence of an
Indemnifiable Claim giving rise to damages for a non-third-party
Indemnifiable Claim, it shall give written notice to the Indemnifying
Party specifying the nature and amount of the Indemnifiable Claim
asserted. If the Indemnifying Party, within 15 business days after
receipt of such notice by the Indemnified Party, has not given
written notice to the Indemnified Party announcing its intent to
contest such assertion by the Indemnified Party, such assertion shall
be deemed accepted and the amount of Indemnifiable Claim shall be
deemed a valid Indemnifiable Claim. In the event, however, that the
Indemnifying Party contests the assertion of an Indemnifiable Claim
by giving such written notice to the Indemnified Party within such 15
business day period, then if the parties, acting in good faith,
cannot reach agreement with respect to such Indemnifiable Claim
within 20 days after such notice, the contested assertion of the
claim shall be resolved by litigation as provided in Paragraphs 17.03
and 19.10 hereof and any other provision of this Agreement relating
to litigation or disputes arising hereunder.
16.05 LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNIFICATION. Rights to indemnification under this
Agreement are subject to the following limitations:
(i) Anything in this Agreement or in any of the General
Partner Interest Purchase Agreements to the contrary notwithstanding
(and the provisions of this sentence shall govern and control over any
inconsistent provision in this Agreement or any of those other
agreements): (A) No Existing General Partner or Existing Limited
Partner shall be liable to pay Damages under or in respect of this
Agreement and all of the General Partner Interest Purchase Agreements
taken together, collectively, in an amount greater than the total value
39
45
(for any such Party, its or his "INITIAL UNIT VALUE"), as of the date
of such Party's first receipt thereof, of all Units delivered to such
Party hereunder or under the General Partner Interest Purchase
Agreements; (B) any Party (other than AERC) may, in his or its
discretion, pay and satisfy all claims against him or it for Damages
hereunder and under the General Partner Interest Purchase Agreements
either in cash or (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 16.07
hereinbelow) by delivering to AERC Units (rather than cash) which are
free and clear of all liens, security interests and encumbrances,
each such Unit to be valued for such purpose at its initial Value
hereunder on the date (i.e., the Initial Closing Date or the Second
Closing Date, as the case may be) it was first acquired by such
Party; and (C) if AERC has actual knowledge of a breach of this
Agreement, or of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty
made herein, which entitles it to terminate this Agreement or to
decline to proceed to any closing hereunder, and AERC elects not to
exercise any such right of termination (or right to decline to close)
and waives all (but not less than all) of such breaches or closing
conditions solely for the purpose of effecting the Initial Closing or
the Second Closing, no other Party shall be liable to AERC (or its
designee) for Damages relating to or based on such breach or
inaccuracy.
(ii) The obligation of indemnity set forth in this Agreement
shall terminate, with respect to each representation and warranty
hereunder, on the day such representation or warranty ceases to survive
as provided in the last grammatical paragraph of Article 9 of this
Agreement.
16.06 NO POST-CLOSING CLAIMS. Except for the rights of indemnification
expressly set out in this Article 16, no Party shall have, or may assert or
enforce, against any other Party any claim, right or remedy under this
Agreement (i) after the Initial Closing (with respect to the partnership
interests in Hollywood or Kirkman or the Hollywood or Kirkman Development
Projects) or (ii) after the Second Closing (with respect to the partnership
interests in Pines or the Pines Development Project).
16.07 SATISFACTION OF CERTAIN INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS. Each Existing
Limited Partner or Existing General Partner who is an Indemnifying Party shall
have the option of satisfying any indemnification payment obligation owed to
AERC hereunder either (i) by satisfying such obligation in cash (such cash
payment to be delivered by certified check or wire transfer in immediately
available funds) or (ii) by delivering and assigning to AERC all of such
Indemnifying Party's respective right, title and interest in and to such of
the Indemnifying Party's Units as have a value (set for these purposes as such
Units' value on the Closing Date) equal to the amount such Indemnifying Party
then owes to AERC with respect to its Indemnification Obligation. (The option
to pay with Units rather than cash, described in clause (ii) of the preceding
sentence, is referred to herein as the "UNIT PAYMENT OPTION".) The Unit
Payment Option may be utilized only with respect to Units owned by an
Indemnifying Party that can be assigned and delivered to AERC free and clear
of all liens, pledges, restrictions and encumbrances whatsoever. Each such
Indemnifying Party acknowledges and agrees that AERC shall have no obligation
to accept the assignment and delivery of any Units from any Indemnifying Party
seeking to utilize the Unit Payment Option unless and until that Indemnifying
Party delivers to Buyer (A) a certificate
40
46
representing and warranting that such Indemnifying Party owns those of his
respective Units being tendered free and clear of all liens, pledges,
restrictions and encumbrances whatsoever and (B) Uniform Commercial Code
searches of all applicable jurisdictions reasonably requested by AERC that show
no encumbrances on such Indemnifying Party's Units being tendered.
17. DEFAULT/REMEDIES
17.01 REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT OF AERC. If AERC is in default under this
Agreement and neither the Existing Limited Partners nor the Existing General
Partners are in material default, the sole and exclusive remedy of the
Existing Limited Partners and the Existing General Partners shall be to
terminate this Agreement by notice given to AERC and in such event AERC shall
be liable to the Existing Limited Partners for liquidated damages in the
amount of the Earnest Money Deposit. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that
the entire Earnest Money Deposit shall be delivered to the Existing Limited
Partners in such event. The Parties recognize and agree that such remedy
provides for liquidated damages in a reasonable amount in the context of the
transactions in which the measurement of damages is not feasible or
convenient.
17.02 [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.]
17.03 REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT OF EXISTING LIMITED PARTNERS AND EXISTING GENERAL
PARTNERS. If all or any of the Existing Limited Partners or Existing General
Partners are in default of their obligations under this Agreement and AERC is
not in material default, then AERC shall have the right to (i) terminate this
Agreement and receive the Earnest Money Deposit in which case this Agreement
shall be of no further force and effect and, except as otherwise expressly set
forth herein, none of the Parties shall have any further liability to the
other, (ii) bring an action to cause the specific performance of this
Agreement or (iii) pursue any of its other rights and remedies available to it
at law or in equity, including the right to seek monetary damages, provided,
that AERC's right to monetary damages shall be limited to an amount not to
exceed, in total, an amount equal to the Earnest Money Deposit deposited by
AERC.
17.04 PAYMENT OF LITIGATION EXPENSES. If any dispute or litigation arises
under this Agreement or concerning the subject matter hereof, the reasonable
costs and expenses thereof (including, without limitation, court costs and
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses for all appellate and trial court
proceedings) shall be paid and reimbursed to the substantially prevailing
party by the non-prevailing party whether or not a final judgment on the
merits of such dispute is ever entered in such litigation, with the court to
determine who is the substantially prevailing party for these purposes (which
party need not be awarded, or otherwise receive, all of the relief it had
requested in order to be deemed "substantially prevailing" for purposes
hereof). The limitation set out in clause A of subparagraph 16.05(i) above on
the amount of Damages payable by any Existing General Partner or any Existing
Limited Partner does not apply to the payment and reimbursement obligation set
out in this Paragraph 17.03 except with respect to Elwood, Kalik and Wayman
(as to whom that limitation will apply hereto).
41
47
17.05 SUIT FOR SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. If any Party brings a suit against any
other Party for specific performance of this Agreement, the Party against whom
such suit is brought will not raise or assert as a defense that the remedy of
specific performance is unavailable or inappropriate because this is a contract
for the sale or disposition of personal property rather than interests in real
property (but such Party shall be free to assert any and all defenses relating
to the unavailability or inappropriateness of specific performance that would
have been available to it if this were a contract for the sale of interests in
real property).
18. NOTICES.
Unless otherwise expressly required or permitted by the terms of this
Agreement, any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder by the
parties shall be delivered by a nationally recognized overnight courier

and fairways endorsements, in the amount of $37,028,000 (the "Title
Policy") issued by the Title Company, as assurance that upon the

clear of all encumbrances whatsoever, except as follows (collectively,

in the Title Commitment, setting forth all real estate taxes and
special assessments, the state of record title to the Property and all
exceptions to, or encumbrances upon, title to the Property which would
appear in the Title Policy. Buyer shall have until the end of the Due
Diligence Period (as defined in Section 9 of this Agreement) to review
such items and to give notice to Seller of such objections as Buyer may
have to any matters set forth in the Title Commitment or survey. Seller
understands and agrees that prior to the expiration of the Due
Diligence Period, Buyer may deliver to Seller an objection letter or
objection letters at any time during the Due Diligence Period and
Seller agrees that any such delivery or deliveries shall not be

to any special assessments, defects or encumbrances, Seller shall have
until the end of the Due Diligence Period to have such exceptions
cured, either by the removal of such exceptions or by the procurement
of title insurance endorsements or other resolution satisfactory to

in which event neither party shall thereafter
-16-

have any liability to the other (except as to matters which, under any
other provision of this Agreement are expressly stated to survive a
termination of this Agreement), and all funds previously paid or
deposited by Buyer, including all accrued interest, shall be returned
to Buyer, or (ii) waive its objection to the defects or encumbrances
and proceed to the Closing in which event all such waived defects or
encumbrances shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions hereunder.
Notwithstanding the above, any defects in the nature of (i) consensual
liens affirmatively granted by Seller, (ii) mechanics' liens, (iii)
judgement liens or (iv) non- consensual liens (other than mechanics' or
judgement liens) which do not exceed Twenty Five Thousand Dollars
($25,000) in the aggregate, that can be released by payment of the
underlying obligation, shall be removed, bonded or title insured over
by Seller and if not so removed, bonded or title insured over by the
Closing then such amount shall be charged against the capital accounts
of the Limited Partners (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) all
as more fully provided in Section 11(g) hereof. Buyer shall
conclusively be deemed to have waived all objections to any title or
survey defect, encumbrance or exception reflected or referenced in the
Title Commitment or survey as to which Buyer fails to deliver to Seller
a written objection by the end of the Due Diligence Period, and all
such matters shall thereafter be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions for

fully executed leases for eighty percent (80%) of the apartment units at the
Project and eighty percent (80%) of such units shall be occupied in accordance
with the Leasing Requirements (the "Closing Date").
If Buyer fails to close hereunder even though all conditions
to its obligations hereunder have been satisfied, or if Buyer otherwise is in
default of any of its material obligations under this Agreement, Seller may, so
long as Seller is not in default of any of its material obligations under this
Agreement, terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to Buyer,
-23-
92
in which case Seller shall receive the Earnest Money as liquidated damages and
neither party shall thereafter be under any further liability to the other
except for Buyer's obligation to repair damage as set forth in Section 9 above.
Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any
time after the Due Diligence Period by providing written notice to Seller.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that
Buyer terminates this Agreement after the Due Diligence Period, other than by
reason of a right afforded Buyer under the terms and provisions hereunder and
Seller has otherwise timely and fully complied with all of its obligations
hereunder, Seller shall receive the Earnest Money Deposit as liquidated damages
and neither party shall thereafter be under any further liability to the other,
except for Buyer's obligation to repair damage as set forth in Section 9 above.
11. PRORATIONS AND CLOSING COSTS. All prorations, adjustments and final
readings shall be made, unless otherwise mutually agreed to by the parties, on
the Adjustment Date, by the Title Company based on information provided by the
parties, as follows:
(a) Payments under any Project Contracts or Personal Property
Leases and fees for any transferable licenses and permits shall be
prorated;
(b) General Real Estate taxes shall be prorated, using for
such purpose the rate and valuation shown on the last available tax
duplicate, but subject to further adjustment as provided below. If any
real estate taxes prorated at Closing or assessments paid by Seller (as
set forth below) are later increased for any reason whatsoever,
including, without limitation, the real estate taxes and assessments
shown on the later issued actual tax duplicate being greater than those
shown on the tax duplicate available at Closing or because of any
additions or corrections to the tax duplicate assessed by reason of
Buyer's acquisition of the Project, then Seller shall promptly pay all
such increases allocable to the
-24-
93
period prior to the Closing Date and Seller shall protect, indemnify,
defend, and hold Buyer harmless from and against all such real estate
tax and assessment increases, which obligations on the part of the
Seller and shall survive the Closing. Any special assessment which is a
lien on the Project at Closing shall be paid by Seller without
proration.
(c) Collected rents shall be prorated based upon the total
rent roll payable for the month in which the Closing occurs. In the
event that any tenant, who as of the Closing is delinquent in the
rental payments due Seller, delivers to Buyer a rent check in an amount
in excess of the rent due Buyer for the month for which such check is
delivered, Buyer shall allocate such excess first to pay reasonable
outside collection costs, if any, then to pay rents which become due
after the Closing and are currently due and owing as of the date such
payment is received, then pay remaining funds to Seller for any rents
delinquent prior to the Closing; provided, however, in no event shall
Buyer be obligated to collect delinquent rents on Seller's behalf;
(d) Final readings and final billings for utilities shall be
made as of the Adjustment Date. Seller shall pay all outstanding
amounts due as of such time, or such amounts shall be credited to Buyer
at the Closing. Seller shall assign to Buyer all of its right, title
and interest in and to any utility and other similar deposits and
Seller shall receive a credit for all such deposits. If final readings
and billings cannot be obtained prior to the Closing, the final bills,
when received, shall be prorated as of the Adjustment Date and the
Title Company shall hold in escrow an amount equal to 150% of the
reasonably anticipated amount of such billings, based upon the most
recent available billings for similar periods until the Title Company
shall have received notice of payment of such bills, at which time any
remaining amount being withheld for such purpose shall be distributed
to the Seller;
-25-
94
(e) All salaries, benefits, and payroll taxes for all
employees hired by Buyer shall be prorated;
(f) Seller shall assign to Buyer or Buyer's affiliate (as
directed by Buyer) at the Closing an amount equal to all Deposits which
Seller received under the Tenant Leases and which Seller has not
returned or applied in accordance with the provision of Tenant Leases;
and
(g) Except with respect to attorney's fees as discussed below,
all closing costs relating to this transaction, including, (i) any
escrow fee at the Closing, (ii) the cost of a new or upgraded or
updated survey of the Property and (iii) the cost of the Title Policy
together with all endorsements attached thereto shall be paid by Buyer,
but such payments shall be charged against the capital accounts of the
Limited Partner's (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) pursuant
to the Contribution Agreement. Additionally, any prorations that Buyer
may receive under this Section 11 that would otherwise be credited
against the balance of the Purchase Price shall instead be charged
against the capital accounts of the Limited Partners as provided above.
Each party shall pay its own attorneys' fees.
(h) In the event that there is a Punchlist Holdback Escrow,
Seller shall deliver to the Title Company to hold in escrow an amount
equal to 125% of the reasonably anticipated amount of such Punchlist
Holdback Escrow, until the Title Company shall have received notice
from Buyer and Seller of completion of the Punchlist Work and
assurances of payment of such bills relating to the Punchlist Holdback
Escrow, at which time any remaining amount being withheld for such
purpose shall be distributed to the Seller.
12. FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY. Seller agrees to promptly advise Buyer in writing of
any material damage to the Project. If all or any substantial portion of the
Project (i.e. 10% or more of the value) shall, prior to the Closing, be damaged
or destroyed by fire or any other cause, and such
-26-
95
damage shall not have been repaired or reconstructed prior to the Closing in a
good and workmanlike manner to the reasonable satisfaction of Buyer, Buyer may,
at Buyer's option: (a) remain obligated to perform this Agreement and receive
all insurance proceeds received by or payable to Seller as a result of such
damage or destruction plus an amount equal to any insurance policy deductible;
or (b) by written notice of termination given to Seller not later than thirty
(30) days after Seller provides Buyer with written notice of such damage or
destruction, terminate this Agreement and receive any documents, instruments and
funds previously deposited or paid including the Earnest Money Deposit (together
with all interest earned thereon). If an unsubstantial portion of the Project
(i.e. 10% or less of the value) shall, prior to the Closing, be damaged or
destroyed by fire or any other cause and such damage shall not have been
repaired or reconstructed prior to the Closing in a good and workmanlike manner
to the reasonable satisfaction of Buyer, then Buyer shall be obligated to
proceed to close the transaction contemplated hereby, but shall receive from
Seller, on the Closing Date, an assignment of proceeds of the insurance payable
under Seller's insurance policy plus an amount equal to any insurance policy
deductible. Upon termination of this Agreement by Buyer pursuant to this Section
12, neither party shall thereafter be under any further liability to the other,
except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement.
13. CONDEMNATION AND EMINENT DOMAIN. If, prior to the Closing Date, all
or any portion of the Project shall be subjected to a taking, either total or
partial, by eminent domain, condemnation, or for any public or quasi-public use,
Buyer shall have the right to either (a) terminate this Agreement by giving
written notice of termination to Seller, in which event all funds and documents
deposited by Buyer and Seller shall be refunded or returned to the depositing
party and neither party shall thereafter be under any further liability to the
other and Buyer shall receive the Earnest Money Deposit, or (b) proceed to close
this transaction in which event Seller shall assign to Buyer all proceeds
resulting from such taking. Seller and Buyer each agree to
-27-
96
forward promptly to the other any notice of intent received pertaining to a
taking of all or a portion of the Project by way of condemnation, eminent domain
or similar procedure for a taking of the Project in connection with any public
or quasi-public use.
14. INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) Buyer shall fully indemnify and hold Seller and its
officers, directors, representatives, successors, and assigns harmless
from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities,
damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising
out of or in connection with (i) the failure of Buyer to perform in any
material respect any of its obligations hereunder, (ii) any material
breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Buyer
hereunder or (iii) the ownership of the Project or the Partnership
Interest if that claim, demand, loss, liability, damage or expense
first arises, accrues or exists from and after the Closing (except to
the extent that such indemnification obligation would arise directly as
a result of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty or breach
of any covenant made by Seller hereunder)
(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 14(c)
below, Seller and the Management Team, jointly and severally, shall
fully indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer, its officers, directors,
successors, and assigns harmless from and against any and all claims,
demands, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in connection with (i)
the failure of Seller or the Management Team to perform in any material
respect any of its obligations hereunder, (ii) the material inaccuracy
of any representation or warranty made by Seller or the Management Team
hereunder, or (iii) the ownership of the Project or the Partnership
Interest if that claim, demand, loss, liability, damage or expense
arose, accrued or existed prior to the Closing (except to the extent
that such indemnification obligation would arise directly as a result
of the inaccuracy
-28-
97
of any representation or warranty or breach of any covenant made by
Buyer hereunder).
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement or the Contribution Agreement, (i) Seller's liability under
this Agreement (taken together with Seller's liability under the
Contribution Agreement relating to the same matters) shall be limited
to an amount not to exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($250,000) in the aggregate and (ii) each member of the Management
Team's liability under this Agreement and the Contribution Agreement
shall be limited to an amount equal to the total compensation received
by each such member of the Management Team under this Agreement and the
Contribution Agreement which amounts are set forth on EXHIBIT L
attached hereto and made a part hereof. Each member of the Management
Team shall have the option of satisfying any indemnification obligation
owed to Buyer hereunder either (i) by satisfying such obligation in
cash (such cash payment to be delivered by certified check or wire
transfer in immediately available funds) or (ii) subject to the
limitations described in this Section 14(c) below, by delivering and
assigning to Buyer all of such member's respective right, title and
interest in and to such of the limited partnership units in HP having a
value (set for these purposes, as such units' value on the Closing
Date) equal to the amount that it receives pursuant to the terms of the
Contribution Agreement. The right to elect to exercise option (ii)
above in connection with the satisfaction of any indemnification
obligation owed to Buyer may be exercised only with respect to such
limited partnership units owned by such member that can be assigned and
delivered to Buyer free and clear of all liens, pledges, restrictions
and encumbrances whatsoever. Each member of the Management Team
acknowledges and agrees that Buyer shall have no obligation to accept
the assignment and delivery of any limited partnership units
contemplated by option (ii) above unless and until the member or
members of the Management Team (as the case may
-29-
98
be) seeking to exercise the rights provided in option (ii) deliver to
Buyer (x) a certificate representing and warranting that such member
owns those of his respective limited partnership units in HP being
tendered free and clear of all liens, pledges, restrictions and
encumbrances whatsoever and (y) uniform commercial code searches of all
applicable jurisdictions reasonably requested by Buyer that show no
encumbrances on such member's limited partnership units in HP.
(d) Except for any claim relating to a breach of any
representation and warranty set forth in Section 3(o) of this
Agreement, any claim for indemnification under clause (ii) of Section
14(a) or Section 14(b) must be asserted in writing and with specificity
by the date (the "Claim Expiration Date") that is three hundred sixty
five (365) days after the Closing Date, and any and all claims not so
asserted by the applicable Claim Expiration Date shall automatically
expire and be deemed to have been forever waived, released and of no
force or effect.
15. MECHANICS' LIENS. Seller shall hold Buyer harmless from and against
any and all costs, damages, and expenses incurred by Buyer, directly or
indirectly as the owner of the Project, including reasonable attorneys' fees, as
a result of the filing against the Project of any mechanics' lien by any person
or entity claiming to have performed work on the Project or supplied materials
for the Project prior to the Closing pursuant to authorization from Seller or
the agents or employees of Seller or in connection with the Punchlist Work (if
any). Seller and Buyer each agree to give the other notice of any such lien
promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
any such liens are not discharged of record or bonded or title insured over by
the Closing Date, Buyer shall have the right to pay the full amount of any such
liens to the lien claimants, and Seller on demand shall reimburse Buyer for any
such payments.
16. SELLER'S AND BUYER'S REPRESENTATIVES/SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION.
-30-
99
(a) Seller and Buyer shall meet on at least a monthly basis to
discuss all matters pertaining to the Project. Seller will report on
all construction activities, the construction schedule, change orders
and other requested changes to any Construction Document, lease form or
other document for which Buyer's approval is required by any other
provision of this Agreement. The Approved Plans and Specifications
together with any material contracts relating to the construction of
the Project shall not be materially amended or modified without the
prior written approval of Buyer as more fully provided in Section 5(s)
of this Agreement, but Seller may, without Buyer's approval or consent,
make or consent to any changes and modifications thereof which are not
material, and all of such changes and modifications shall be deemed to
be part of and included in, the "Approved Plans and Specifications" for
all purposes. Seller will report to Buyer on all management and
operating activities, including presenting to Buyer all new or modified
Tenant Leases that have been entered into in accordance with the
Leasing Requirements, new or modified Project Contracts (as permitted
under Section 5(k) hereof) and new or modified Personal Property Leases
(as permitted under Section 5(k) hereof) for the Project. Seller and
Buyer will be available on a more frequent basis as is reasonably
required for the needs of the construction, leasing and operation of
the Project. All such meetings will be held at the Project or Seller's
office unless Seller and Buyer agree otherwise.
(b) When Seller believes that the Project has been
Substantially Completed, Seller shall deliver to Buyer, an architect's
certificate in customary form confirming that the Project has been
Substantially Completed in accordance with the Construction Documents
subject only to Punchlist Work together with the following: (i) final
occupancy certificates for all of the Project's units in customary
local form; (ii) documentation from the architect and such other
persons as reasonably requested by Buyer confirming that the Project
has
-31-
100
been Substantially Completed, (iii) an architect's certificate or other
documentation acceptable to Buyer confirming that the completed Project
complies with the FHAA regulations and Americans with Disabilities Act.
Within a reasonable time, but in no event more than fifteen (15) days
after Buyer's receipt of all of the above documents, Buyer shall notify
Seller with respect to whether or not Buyer accepts Seller's conclusion
that the Project has been Substantially Completed. The notice shall
include a list of Punchlist Work, if any, to be completed in accordance
with Section 5(b) of this Agreement. If Buyer accepts Seller's
conclusion that the Project has been Substantially Completed, then
subject to the conditions set forth in Paragraph 7 of this Agreement,
the parties shall proceed to the Closing. If Buyer concludes that the
Project has not been substantially Completed, then the notice delivered
by Buyer shall indicate the reasons behind Buyer's conclusion that the
Project has not been Substantially Completed, but Buyer's conclusion
will not be conclusive or binding on Seller.
17. MISCELLANEOUS.

(c) Seller and Buyer each represent and warrant to the other
that such party has
-33-
102
had no dealing with any real estate broker or agent so as to entitle
such broker or agent to any commission in connection with the sale of
the Partnership Interest to Buyer, which representations and warranties
shall survive the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby. If
for any reason any such commission shall become due, the party who
retained such broker shall pay any such commission and agrees to
indemnify and save the other party harmless from any and all claims for
any such commission and from any attorneys' fees and litigation or
other expenses relating to any such claim.
(d) This Agreement may not be assigned by Seller without the
prior written consent of Buyer. This Agreement may be assigned by Buyer
without the prior written consent of Seller to an entity wholly owned
or controlled by Buyer but no such assignment shall relieve Buyer from
its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns.
(e) After the Closing, the parties shall execute and deliver
such further documents and instruments of conveyance, sale, assignment,
transfer or otherwise, and shall take or cause to be taken such other
or further action as either party shall reasonably request at any time
or from time to time in order to effectuate the terms and provisions of
this Agreement.
(f) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Florida.
(g) This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
(h) If the date for performance of any act under this
Agreement falls on a
-34-
103
Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, the date for such performance
shall automatically be extended to the first succeeding business which
is not a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday.
(i) Lanny M. Kalik, James C. Elwood and Edwin B. Wayman hereby
join in this Agreement solely for the purpose of confirming their
respective agreements to execute and deliver the guaranty attached as
EXHIBIT K on or before the Closing Date and Wright and Cote', also
hereby agree, without limiting or diminishing their obligations under
this Agreement as members of the Management Team, to execute and
deliver the guaranty attached as EXHIBIT K.
(j) Any litigation or other formal dispute resolution process
under, concerning, arising out or relating to this Agreement or the
performance of any duty or obligation hereunder shall be brought,
instituted, maintained and conducted solely and exclusively in the
Florida State or Federal courts sitting in Broward County, Florida (or
the Federal District Court for Broward County). Each party to this
Agreement irrevocably consents to jurisdiction over its person and
property in and by, and venue in, such courts for purposes of
adjudicating any and all disputes arising under, concerning, or
relating in any way to this Agreement or any subject matter hereof or
matter addressed or dealt with herein. Buyer agrees to use reasonable
efforts to join all parties to this Agreement and the guaranty attached
as EXHIBIT K in a single action in the event that any litigation is
commenced by Buyer hereunder or under or in respect of any such
guaranty. If any dispute or litigation arises under this Agreement or
concerning the subject matter hereof, the reasonable costs and expenses
thereof (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses for all appellate and trial court
proceedings) shall be paid and reimbursed to the substantially
prevailing party by the non-prevailing party whether or not a final
-35-
104
judgment on the merits of such dispute is ever entered in such
litigation, with the court to determine who is the substantially
prevailing party for these purposes (which party need not be awarded,
or otherwise receive, all of the relief it had request in order to be
deemed "substantially prevailing" for purposes hereof). Notwithstanding
any of the other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if Buyer
is deemed to be the substantially prevailing party in any of the
litigation discussed above and the amount of such fees, together with
the amount of any relief or judgments granted to Buyer as a result of
such litigation, exceed (i) Seller's limitation on liability set forth
in Section 14(c) hereof or (ii) any of Lanny M. Kalik's, James C.
Elwood's or Edwin B. Wayman's respective limitations on liability set
forth in the guaranty attached hereto as EXHIBIT K, then each member of
the Management Team, jointly and severally, hereby agrees to pay and
reimburse Buyer for all such excess costs, without regard to the
liability limitations set forth in Section 14(c) of this Agreement and
will promptly pay and reimburse to Buyer all such excess costs and
expenses.
(k) It is understood and agreed that before the Closing Date,
Seller will cause the Partnership to do the following, all without any
reduction in the consideration being delivered by Buyer to Seller
hereunder: (i) transfer and assign to Seller the claim by the
Partnership described on EXHIBIT N attached hereto and made a part
hereof and (ii) transfer and assign to Elwood and Kalik any world wide
right, title and interest that Seller may presently have in the
Approved Plans and Specifications. Seller acknowledges and
agrees that all of the liabilities arising out of or relating to the
claim in clause (i) of the preceding sentence shall be retained by
Seller, that Buyer nor the Partnership shall have any liability
whatsoever with respect to such liabilities and that any liability
arising from or relating to such claim shall be a matter as to which
Seller and the Management Team will be required to indemnify Buyer
under Section 14(b) of this Agreement. Buyer acknowledges and agrees
-36-
105
as follows (i) neither it nor the Partnership will have any right of
any kind to have or use the Approved Plans and Specifications other
than the Partnership's right to use the same in connection with the
ownership and operation of the Project and (ii) until the fifth
anniversary of the Closing Date, neither it nor the Partnership will,
directly or indirectly or through a corporation, partnership or entity
that either of them owns, use (without the consent of Elwood and Kalik)
any of the architects listed in SCHEDULE 17(K) attached hereto and made
a part hereof (who are architects that Elwood and Kalik have used, and
expect to use in the future, in connection with their development or
construction of garden apartment projects in Florida) in connection
with their development in Florida of any 2-story or 3-story garden
apartment projects having between 200 and 800 units. The restriction
contained in subpart (ii) of the preceding sentence is not intended to
restrict Buyer, nor shall it prohibit Buyer, the Partnership or any
corporation, partnership or entity that either of them owns from
acquiring any apartment project in Florida that was architecturally
designed in whole or in part by any of the architects listed in
SCHEDULE 17(K) nor from entering into a contract with any
builder/developer or other person for the purpose of acquiring an
apartment project upon completion of construction, which is designed,
in whole or in part, by any of the architects listed in SCHEDULE 17(K)
pursuant to a bona fide transaction initiated by that builder/developer
or other person.
(l) The parties acknowledge that the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement do NOT constitute a sale, conveyance or transfer of
real property. Nevertheless, to avoid any possibility that the letter,
the spirit or the general policy reflected in the relevant Florida
statute would not be satisfied, the parties include the following
legend here: Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that, when
it has accumulated in a building in sufficient quantities, may present
health risks to persons who are exposed to it over time. Levels of
-37-
106
radon that exceed federal and state guidelines have been found in
buildings in Florida. Additional information regarding radon and radon
testing may be obtained from your county public health unit.
-38-
107
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have signed four
counterparts of this Agreement, each of which shall be deemed to be an original
document, as of the date set forth above, which date shall be date upon which
Buyer executes this Agreement.

Dear Marty:

WRIGHT, JAMES A. COTE', LANNY M. KALIK ("Kalik") , JAMES C. ELWOOD ("Elwood")
and EDWIN B. WAYMAN ("Wayman") (collectively the "Guarantors" or singularly a
"Guarantor"), in favor of ASSOCIATED ESTATES REALTY CORPORATION, an Ohio
corporation ("AEC") and [AERC REIT Sub, an ___________________ ("Sub")] AEC and
sub collectively "AERC").
PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:
(1) AEC, as subsequently assigned to Sub, has entered into a
Partnership Interest Purchase dated March __, 1998 (the "Purchase Agreement")
with MIG Development Company, a Florida corporation ("MIG"), pursuant to which,
subject to certain conditions, Sub will purchase the Partnership Interest (as
defined in the Purchase Agreement) from to MIG.
(2) It is a condition precedent to Sub purchasing the
Partnership Interest from MIG that Guarantors shall execute and deliver to AERC
this Guaranty.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order
to induce AERC to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase
Agreement, Guarantors hereby agree with AERC as follows:
SECTION 1. GUARANTY. Lanny M. Kalik, James C. Elwood and Edwin
B. Wayman, severally and each of the other Guarantors, jointly and severally,
hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to AERC (i) the
full, complete and prompt performance and observance of all of the obligations,
duties and agreements of MIG arising under the Purchase Agreement in strict
accordance with the terms and conditions thereof (the "Obligations"); PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that this Guaranty shall be limited to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($250,000), in the aggregate, and will be further limited with respect
to Lanny M. Kalik to $_________________, James C. Elwood to $_________________
and Edwin B. Wayman to $_________________, respectively. All recoveries
hereunder up to a total of $250,000 in the aggregate will be allocated and
apportioned between the Guarantors in proportion to their respective maximum
liability amounts set out in the preceding sentence (and, for purposes of this
sentence only, the respective amounts of each of Larry Wright and James Cote'
will be one-half of the amount by which $250,000 exceeds the total of the
maximum liability amounts of Kalik, Elwood and Wayman). There shall be counted
and charged against the respective maximum liability amounts of Kalik, Elwood
and Wayman hereunder any amounts recovered from them in respect of
"substantially prevailing party" legal fees under Section 17.03 of the Purchase
Agreement. All payments by Guarantors or any Guarantor shall be made in lawful
money of the United States of America. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that
constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed by MIG or the Management
Team to AERC under the Purchase Agreement, but for the fact that they are
unenforceable or not allowable due to
-50-
119
the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving
MIG.
SECTION 2. GUARANTY ABSOLUTE. Lanny M. Kalik, James C. Elwood
and Edwin B. Wayman severally and each of the other Guarantors, jointly and
severally, guarantee that the Obligations will performed strictly in accordance
with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, irrespective of:
(i) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or
performance of, or in any other term of, all or any of the
Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any
consent to departure from the Purchase Agreement; or
(iii) any failure to give notice to any Guarantor of MIG's
failure to perform any of the Obligations when required, or of
any default or event of default under the Purchase Agreement.
This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
be, if, at any time, any of the Obligations are rescinded by AERC upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of MIG or otherwise, all as though such
recision had not occurred.
SECTION 3. GUARANTY ABSOLUTE.Guarantors hereby waive
promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to
any of the Obligations and this Guaranty and, any requirement that AERC exhaust
any right or take any action against MIG or any other person or entity or any
real or personal property of MIG or any other person or entity.
SECTION 4. NO SUBROGATION. Guarantors hereby waive and
relinquish any right to subrogation or other right or claim to payment against
MIG arising out of or on account of any sum paid or agreed to be paid by
Guarantors under this Guaranty, whether such right or claim is liquidated,
unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured or unmatured. If any amount shall be
paid to Guarantors or any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence at
any time prior to the performance of all Obligations then to be performed, such
amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor or Guarantors, as the
case may be, and held in trust, for the benefit of AERC and shall forthwith be
paid to AERC to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether matured
-51-
120
or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. Guarantors
acknowledge that they will receive direct and indirect benefits for the
arrangements contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and that the waiver set
forth in this Section 4 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
Guarantors consent and agree that AERC shall not be under any obligation to
marshall any assets in favor of Guarantors or any Guarantor or against or in
performance of any or all of the Obligations. This Section 4 is made for the
express benefit of MIG as well as AERC and may be enforced independently by MIG.
SECTION 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Guarantor
hereby represents and warrants as follows:
(a) The execution, delivery and performance by such
Guarantor of this Guaranty does not and will not (i) violate
any provision of any law, rule, regulation, order, writ,
judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award presently
in effect having applicability to such Guarantor; or (ii)
result in a breach of or constitute a default under any
indenture, loan or credit agreement, lease, or any other
agreement or instrument to which such Guarantor is a party or
by which he or any of his properties may be bound or affected;
and such Guarantor is not in default under any such law, rule,
regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree,
determination or award or any such indenture, agreement, lease
or instrument;
(b) This Guaranty is the legal, valid and binding
obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such
Guarantor in accordance with its terms;
(c) No authorization, consent, license, approval or
other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any federal,
state or local government or any court, governmental
department, commission, board, bureau, agency or
instrumentality thereof, is or will be required for the due
execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this
Guaranty; and
(e) The assumption by such Guarantor of his
obligations under this Guaranty will result in direct
financial benefit to such Guarantor.
SECTION 6. AMENDMENTS, WAIVER, ETC. (a) No amendment or waiver
of any provision of this Guaranty nor consent to any departure by Guarantor
herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by AERC, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in
the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
(b) The waiver (whether expressed or implied) by AERC of any
breach
-52-
121
of the terms or conditions of this Guaranty, shall not prejudice any remedy of
AERC in respect of any continuing or other breach of the terms and conditions
hereof, and shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which AERC
would otherwise have on any future occasion under this Guaranty.
(c) No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the
part of AERC any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty, shall operate as
a waiver thereof or a consent thereto; further, no single or partial exercise of
any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
SECTION 7. ACTIONS. Each failure of Guarantors or any
Guarantor to perform any part or portion of the Obligations when required shall
give rise to a separate cause of action against Guarantors or any Guarantor
under this Guaranty and separate suits may be brought against Guarantors or any
Guarantor hereunder as each cause of action arises.
SECTION 8. CONTINUING GUARANTY. This Guaranty is a continuing
guaranty and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the complete and
prompt performance of the Obligations and (ii) be binding upon each Guarantor,
and his respective heirs and representatives; and (iii) inure to the benefit of
and be enforceable by AERC and their respective successors, transferees and
assigns.
SECTION 9. SEVERABILITY. If any term or provision of this
Guaranty is or shall become illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, all other terms and provisions of this Guaranty shall remain
legal, valid and enforceable in such jurisdiction and such illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision shall be legal, valid and enforceable in any other
jurisdiction.
SECTION 10. GOVERNING LAW. This Guaranty shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Florida, without
reference to principles of conflicts of law.
SECTION 11. JURISDICTION. Any litigation or other formal
dispute resolution process under, concerning, arising out or relating to this
Guaranty or the performance of any duty or obligation of any Guarantor hereunder
shall be brought, instituted, maintained and conducted solely and exclusively in
the Florida State or Federal courts sitting in Broward County, Florida (or the
Federal District Court for Broward County). Each party to this Guaranty
irrevocably consents to jurisdiction over its person and property in and by, and
venue in, such courts for purposes of adjudicating any and all disputes arising
under, concerning, or relating in any way to this Guaranty or any subject matter
hereof or matter addressed or dealt with herein. AERC agrees to use reasonable

endorsements as
-13-
142
Buyer may reasonably require, including, without limitation, non-
imputation and fairways endorsements, in the amount of $40,000,000 (the
"Title Policy") issued by the Title Company, as assurance that upon the
Closing, the Partnership holds and will hold good, valid, and
marketable title in fee simple absolute to the Property including all
rights, privileges, and easements appurtenant to the Property free and
clear of all encumbrances whatsoever, except as follows (collectively,
the "Permitted Exceptions):
(i) zoning ordinances and regulations; provided the
same do not interfere with the use of the Property as an
apartment complex;
(ii) general real estate taxes which are a lien but
are not past due or delinquent at the Closing Date;
(iii) rights of tenants under Tenant Leases; and
(iv) such easements, covenants, conditions,
reservations, and restrictions of record disclosed to and

with copies of all instruments referred to as exceptions or conditions
in the Title Commitment, setting forth all real estate taxes and
special assessments, the state of record title to the Property and all
exceptions to, or encumbrances upon, title to the Property which would
appear in the Title Policy. Buyer shall have until the end of the Due
Diligence Period (as defined in Section 9 of this Agreement) to review
such items and to give notice to Seller of such objections as Buyer may
have to any matters set forth in the Title Commitment or survey. Seller
understands and agrees that prior to the expiration of the Due
Diligence Period, Buyer may deliver to Seller an objection letter or
-14-
143
objection letters at any time during the Due Diligence Period and
Seller agrees that any such delivery or deliveries shall not be
construed in any way to limit or restrict Buyer's right to deliver
additional objections to Seller at any time during Due Diligence
Period. If Buyer timely (i.e during the Due Diligence Period) objects
to any special assessments, defects or encumbrances, Seller shall have
until the end of the Due Diligence Period to have such exceptions
cured, either by the removal of such exceptions or by the procurement
of title insurance endorsements or other resolution satisfactory to
Buyer providing coverage against loss or damage as a result of such
exceptions. If Seller shall not cure such defects or encumbrances to
Buyer's satisfaction by the end of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer, at
its option, may (i) terminate this Agreement upon written notice of
termination to Seller in accordance with Section 9 of this Agreement,
in which event neither party shall thereafter have any liability to the
other (except as to matters which, under any other provision of this
Agreement are expressly stated to survive a termination of this
Agreement), and all funds previously paid or deposited by Buyer,
including all accrued interest, shall be returned to Buyer, or (ii)
waive its objection to the defects or encumbrances and proceed to the
Closing in which event all such waived defects or encumbrances shall be
deemed to be Permitted Exceptions hereunder. Notwithstanding the above,
any defects in the nature of (i) consensual liens affirmatively granted
by Seller, (ii) mechanics' liens, (iii) judgement liens or (iv) non-
consensual liens (other than mechanics' or judgement liens) which do
not exceed Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) in the aggregate that
can be released by payment of the underlying obligation, shall be
removed, bonded or title insured over by Seller and if not so removed,
bonded or title insured over by the Closing then such amount shall be
charged against the capital accounts of the Limited Partners (as
defined in the Contribution Agreement) all as more fully provided in
Section 11 hereof. Buyer shall conclusively be
-15-
144
deemed to have waived all objections to any title or survey defect,
encumbrance or exception reflected or referenced in the Title
Commitment or survey as to which Buyer fails to deliver to Seller a
written objection by the end of the Due Diligence Period, and all such
matters shall thereafter be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions for
purposes of this Agreement.

(a) Payments for any licenses or permits;
(b) All salaries, benefits or payroll taxes for employees of
the Partnership; and
(c) Except with respect to delinquent real estate taxes and
assessments that shall be paid in full by Seller at Closing, Buyer
shall pay all closing costs relating to this transaction, including,
(i) any escrow fee at the Closing, (ii) the cost of a new or upgraded
or updated survey of the Property and (iii) the cost of the Title
Policy together with all endorsements attached thereto. Each party
shall pay its own attorneys' fees. Buyer agrees to accept the
Partnership Interest without any reduction in the Purchase Price or any
other credit or adjustment of any kind relative to or on account of (i)
items customarily prorated in the sale of real estate or (ii) the
indebtedness, liabilities, accrued expenses and obligations of the
Partnership arising on the Closing Date (except for indebtedness or
obligations incurred by Seller in violation of the provisions of this
Agreement). Any positive net cash flow generated from operations of the
Project shall be accumulated and either delivered or credited to Buyer
after Closing.
12. FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY. Seller agrees to promptly advise Buyer in
writing of any material damage to the Project. If all or any substantial portion
of the Project (i.e. 10% or more of the value) shall, prior to the Closing, be
damaged or destroyed by fire or any other cause, and such damage shall not have
been repaired or reconstructed prior to the Closing in a good and workmanlike
manner to the reasonable satisfaction of Buyer, Buyer may, at Buyer's option:
(a) remain obligated to perform this Agreement and receive all insurance
proceeds received by or payable to Seller as a result of such damage or
destruction plus an amount equal to any insurance policy deductible; or (b) by
written notice of termination given to Seller not later than thirty (30) days
after Seller provides Buyer with written notice of such damage or destruction,
terminate this Agreement and receive any documents, instruments and funds
previously deposited or paid
-23-
152
including the Earnest Money Deposit (together with all interest earned thereon).
If an unsubstantial portion of the Project (i.e. 10% or less of the value)
shall, prior to the Closing, be damaged or destroyed by fire or any other cause
and such damage shall not have been repaired or reconstructed prior to the
Closing in a good and workmanlike manner to the reasonable satisfaction of
Buyer, then Buyer shall be obligated to proceed to close the transaction
contemplated hereby, but shall receive from Seller, on the Closing Date, an
assignment of proceeds of the insurance payable under Seller's insurance policy
plus an amount equal to any insurance policy deductible. Upon termination of
this Agreement by Buyer pursuant to this Section 12, neither party shall
thereafter be under any further liability to the other, except as otherwise
expressly set forth in this Agreement.
13. CONDEMNATION AND EMINENT DOMAIN. If, prior to the Closing Date, all
or any portion of the Project shall be subjected to a taking, either total or
partial, by eminent domain, condemnation, or for any public or quasi-public use,
Buyer shall have the right to either (a) terminate this Agreement by giving
written notice of termination to Seller, in which event all funds and documents
deposited by Buyer and Seller shall be refunded or returned to the depositing
party and neither party shall thereafter be under any further liability to the
other and Buyer shall receive the Earnest Money Deposit, or (b) proceed to close
this transaction in which event Seller shall assign to Buyer all proceeds
resulting from such taking. Seller and Buyer each agree to forward promptly to
the other any notice of intent received pertaining to a taking of all or a
portion of the Project by way of condemnation, eminent domain or similar
procedure for a taking of the Project in connection with any public or
quasi-public use.
14. INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) From and after the Closing, Buyer shall fully indemnify
and hold Seller and its officers, directors, representatives,
successors, and assigns harmless from and against any and all claims,
demands, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including
reasonable
-24-
153
attorneys' fees) arising out of or in connection with (i) the failure
of Buyer to perform in any material respect any of its obligations
hereunder, (ii) any material breach or inaccuracy of any representation
or warranty of Buyer hereunder or (iii) the ownership of the Project or
the Partnership Interest if that claim, demand, loss, liability, damage
or expense first arises, accrues or exists from and after the Closing
(except to the extent that such indemnification obligation would arise
directly as a result of the inaccuracy of any representation or
warranty or breach of any covenant made by Seller hereunder) or (iv)
claims by third parties relating to contracts entered into by the
Partnership or liabilities incurred by the Partnership (except to the
extent that such indemnification obligation would arise directly as a
result of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty or breach of
any covenant made by Buyer hereunder).
(b) From and after the Closing, subject to the limitations set
forth in Section 14(c) below, Seller and the Management Team, jointly
and severally, shall fully indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer, its
officers, directors, successors, and assigns harmless from and against
any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in connection
with (i) the failure of Seller or the Management Team to perform in any
material respect any of its obligations hereunder or (ii) the material
inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Seller or the
Management Team hereunder.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement or the Contribution Agreement, (i) Seller's liability under
this Agreement (taken together with Seller's liability under the
Contribution Agreement relating to the same matters) shall be limited
to an amount not to exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
($250,000) in the aggregate and (ii) each member of the Management
Team's liability under this Agreement and the Contribution Agreement
shall be limited to an amount equal to the total compensation received
by each such member of the Management Team under this Agreement
-25-
154
and the Contribution Agreement which amounts are set forth on EXHIBIT L
attached hereto and made a part hereof. Each member of the Management
Team shall have the option of satisfying any indemnification obligation
owed to Buyer hereunder either (i) by satisfying such obligation in
cash (such cash payment to be delivered by certified check or wire
transfer in immediately available funds) or (ii) subject to the
limitations described in this Section 14(c) below, by delivering and
assigning to Buyer all of such member's respective right, title and
interest in and to such of the limited partnership units in HP having a
value (set for these purposes, as such units' value on the Closing
Date) equal to the amount that it receives pursuant to the terms of the
Contribution Agreement. The right to elect to exercise option (ii)
above in connection with the satisfaction of any indemnification
obligation owed to Buyer may be exercised only with respect to such
limited partnership units owned by such member that can be assigned and
delivered to Buyer free and clear of all liens, pledges, restrictions
and encumbrances whatsoever. Each member of the Management Team
acknowledges and agrees that Buyer shall have no obligation to accept
the assignment and delivery of any limited partnership units
contemplated by option (ii) above unless and until the member or
members of the Management Team (as the case may be) seeking to exercise
the rights provided in option (ii) deliver to Buyer (x) a certificate
representing and warranting that such member owns those of his
respective limited partnership units in HP being tendered free and
clear of all liens, pledges, restrictions and encumbrances whatsoever
and (y) uniform commercial code searches of all applicable
jurisdictions reasonably requested by Buyer that show no encumbrances
on such member's limited partnership units in HP.
-26-
155
(d) Except for any claim relating to a breach of any
representation and warranty set forth in Section 3(o) of this
Agreement, any claim for indemnification under clause (ii) of Section
14(a) or Section 14(b) must be asserted in writing and with specificity
by the date (the "Claim Expiration Date") that is three hundred sixty
five (365) days after the Closing Date, and any and all claims not so
asserted by the applicable Claim Expiration Date shall automatically
expire and be deemed to have been forever waived, released and of no
force or effect.
15. MECHANICS' LIENS. Seller and Buyer each agree to give the other
notice of any lien promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof.

(c) Seller and Buyer each represent and warrant to the other
that such party has had no dealing with any real estate broker or agent
so as to entitle such broker or agent to any commission in connection
with the sale of the Partnership Interest to Buyer, which
representations and warranties shall survive the closing of the
transactions contemplated hereby. If for any reason any such commission
shall become due, the party who retained such broker shall pay any such
commission and agrees to indemnify and save the other
-28-
157
party harmless from any and all claims for any such commission and from
any attorneys' fees and litigation or other expenses relating to any
such claim.
(d) This Agreement may not be assigned by Seller without the
prior written consent of Buyer. This Agreement may be assigned by Buyer
without the prior written consent of Seller to an entity wholly owned
or controlled by Buyer but no such assignment shall relieve Buyer from
its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall be binding upon and

successors and permitted assigns.
(e) After the Closing, the parties shall execute and deliver
such further documents and instruments of conveyance, sale, assignment,
transfer or otherwise, and shall take or cause to be taken such other
or further action as either party shall reasonably request at any time
or from time to time in order to effectuate the terms and provisions of
this Agreement.
(f) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Florida.
(g) This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
(h) If the date for performance of any act under this
Agreement falls on a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, the date for
such performance shall automatically be extended to the first
succeeding business which is not a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday.
(i) Lanny M. Kalik, James C. Elwood and Edwin B. Wayman hereby
join in this Agreement solely for the purpose of confirming their
respective agreements to execute
-29-
158
and deliver the guaranty attached as EXHIBIT K and the Development
Consulting Agreement attached as EXHIBIT M on or before the Closing
Date, and Wright and Cote', also hereby agree, without limiting or
diminishing their obligations under this Agreement as members of the
Management Team, to execute and deliver the guaranty attached as
EXHIBIT K.
(j) Any litigation or other formal dispute resolution process
under, concerning, arising out or relating to this Agreement or the
performance of any duty or obligation hereunder shall be brought,
instituted, maintained and conducted solely and exclusively in the
Florida State or Federal courts sitting in Orange County, Florida (or
the Federal District Court for Orange County). Each party to this
Agreement irrevocably consents to jurisdiction over its person and
property in and by, and venue in, such courts for purposes of
adjudicating any and all disputes arising under, concerning, or
relating in any way to this Agreement or any subject matter hereof or
matter addressed or dealt with herein. Buyer agrees to use reasonable
efforts to join all parties to this Agreement and the guaranty attached
as EXHIBIT K in a single action in the event that any litigation is
commenced by Buyer hereunder or under or in respect of any such
guaranty. If any dispute or litigation arises under this Agreement or
concerning the subject matter hereof, the reasonable costs and expenses
thereof (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses for all appellate and trial court
proceedings) shall be paid and reimbursed to the substantially
prevailing party by the non-prevailing party whether or not a final
judgment on the merits of such dispute is ever entered in such
litigation, with the court to determine who is the substantially
prevailing party for these purposes (which party need not be awarded,
or otherwise receive, all of the relief it had request in order to be
deemed "substantially prevailing" for purposes hereof). Notwithstanding
any of the other provisions
-30-
159
of this Agreement to the contrary, if Buyer is deemed to be the
substantially prevailing party in any of the litigation discussed above
and the amount of such fees, together with the amount of any relief or
judgments granted to Buyer as a result of such litigation, exceed (i)
Seller's limitation on liability set forth in Section 14(c) hereof or
(ii) any of Lanny M. Kalik's, James C. Elwood's or Edwin B. Wayman's
respective limitations on liability set forth in the guaranty attached
hereto as EXHIBIT K, then each member of the Management Team, jointly
and severally, hereby agrees to pay and reimburse Buyer for all such
excess costs, without regard to the liability limitations set forth in
Section 14(c) of this Agreement and will promptly pay and reimburse to
Buyer all such excess costs and expenses.
(k) It is understood and agreed that before the Closing Date,
Seller will cause the Partnership to do the following, all without any
reduction in the consideration being delivered by Buyer to Seller
hereunder: Transfer and assign to Elwood and Kalik any world wide
right, title and interest that Seller may presently have in the
Approved Plans and Specifications. Buyer acknowledges and agrees as
follows (i) neither it nor the Partnership will have any right of any
kind to have or use the Approved Plans and Specifications other than
the Partnership's right to use the same in connection with the
ownership and operation of the Project and (ii) until the fifth
anniversary of the Closing Date, neither it nor the Partnership will,
directly or indirectly or through a corporation, partnership or entity
that either of them owns, use (without the consent of Elwood and Kalik)
any of the architects listed in SCHEDULE 17(k) attached hereto and made
a part hereof (who are architects that Elwood and Kalik have used, and
expect to use in the future, in connection with their development or
construction of garden apartment projects in Florida) in connection
with their development in Florida of any 2-story or 3-story garden
apartment projects having between 200 and 800 units. The restriction
contained in subpart (ii) of the preceding
-31-
160
sentence is not intended to restrict Buyer, nor shall it prohibit
Buyer, the Partnership or any corporation, partnership or entity that
either of them owns from acquiring any apartment project in Florida
that was architecturally designed in whole or in part by any of the
architects listed in SCHEDULE 17(k) nor from entering into a contract
with any builder/developer or other person for the purpose of acquiring
an apartment project upon completion of construction, which is
designed, in whole or in part, by any of the architects listed in
SCHEDULE 17(k) pursuant to a bona fide transaction initiated by that
builder/developer or other person.
(l) The parties acknowledge that the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement do NOT constitute a sale, conveyance or transfer of
real property. Nevertheless, to avoid any possibility that the letter,
the spirit or the general policy reflected in the relevant Florida
statute would not be satisfied, the parties include the following
legend here: Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that, when
it has accumulated in a building in sufficient quantities, may present
health risks to persons who are exposed to it over time. Levels of
radon that exceed federal and state guidelines have been found in
buildings in Florida. Additional information regarding radon and radon
testing may be obtained from your county public health unit.

GUARANTY

GUARANTY, dated as of ____________ ___, 1998, made by LARRY
WRIGHT, JAMES A. COTE', LANNY M. KALIK ("Kalik") , JAMES C. ELWOOD ("Elwood")
and EDWIN B. WAYMAN ("Wayman") (collectively the "Guarantors" or singularly a
"Guarantor"), in favor of ASSOCIATED ESTATES REALTY CORPORATION, an Ohio
corporation ("AEC") and [AERC REIT Sub, an ___________________ ("Sub")] AEC and
sub collectively "AERC").
PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:
(1) AEC, as subsequently assigned to Sub, has entered into a
Partnership Interest Purchase dated March __, 1998 (the "Purchase Agreement")
with MIG Development Company, a Florida corporation ("MIG"), pursuant to which,
subject to certain conditions, Sub will purchase the Partnership Interest (as
defined in the Purchase Agreement) from to MIG.
(2) It is a condition precedent to Sub purchasing the
Partnership Interest from MIG that Guarantors shall execute and deliver to AERC
this Guaranty.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order
to induce AERC to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase
Agreement, Guarantors hereby agree with AERC as follows:
SECTION 1. GUARANTY. Lanny M. Kalik, James C. Elwood and Edwin
B. Wayman, severally and each of the other Guarantors, jointly and severally,
hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to AERC (i) the
full, complete and prompt performance and observance of all of the obligations,
duties and agreements of MIG arising under the Purchase Agreement in strict
accordance with the terms and conditions thereof (the "Obligations"); PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that this Guaranty shall be limited to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($250,000), in the aggregate, and will be further limited with respect
to Lanny M. Kalik to $_________________, James C. Elwood to $_________________
and Edwin B. Wayman to $_________________, respectively. All recoveries
hereunder up to a total of $250,000 in the aggregate will be allocated and
apportioned between the Guarantors in proportion to their respective maximum
liability amounts set out in the preceding sentence (and, for purposes of this
sentence only, the respective amounts of each of Larry Wright and James Cote'
will be one-half of the amount by which $250,000 exceeds the total of the
maximum liability amounts of Kalik, Elwood and Wayman). There shall be counted
and charged against the respective maximum liability amounts of Kalik, Elwood
and Wayman hereunder any amounts recovered from them in respect of
"substantially prevailing party" legal fees under Section 17.03 of the Purchase
Agreement. All payments by Guarantors or any Guarantor shall be made in lawful
money of the United States of America. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that
constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed by MIG or the Management
Team to AERC under the Purchase Agreement, but for the fact that they are
unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy,
reorganization or similar proceeding involving MIG.
SECTION 2. GUARANTY ABSOLUTE. Lanny M. Kalik, James C. Elwood
and Edwin B.
172
Wayman severally and each of the other Guarantors, jointly and severally,
guarantee that the Obligations will performed strictly in accordance with the
terms of the Purchase Agreement, irrespective of:
(i) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or
performance of, or in any other term of, all or any of the
Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any
consent to departure from the Purchase Agreement; or
(iii) any failure to give notice to any Guarantor of MIG's
failure to perform any of the Obligations when required, or of
any default or event of default under the Purchase Agreement.
This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
be, if, at any time, any of the Obligations are rescinded by AERC upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of MIG or otherwise, all as though such
recision had not occurred.
-44-
173
SECTION 3. GUARANTY ABSOLUTE.Guarantors hereby waive
promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to
any of the Obligations and this Guaranty and, any requirement that AERC exhaust
any right or take any action against MIG or any other person or entity or any
real or personal property of MIG or any other person or entity.
SECTION 4. NO SUBROGATION. Guarantors hereby waive and
relinquish any right to subrogation or other right or claim to payment against
MIG arising out of or on account of any sum paid or agreed to be paid by
Guarantors under this Guaranty, whether such right or claim is liquidated,
unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured or unmatured. If any amount shall be
paid to Guarantors or any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence at
any time prior to the performance of all Obligations then to be performed, such
amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor or Guarantors, as the
case may be, and held in trust, for the benefit of AERC and shall forthwith be
paid to AERC to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or
unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. Guarantors
acknowledge that they will receive direct and indirect benefits for the
arrangements contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and that the waiver set
forth in this Section 4 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
Guarantors consent and agree that AERC shall not be under any obligation to
marshall any assets in favor of Guarantors or any Guarantor or against or in
performance of any or all of the Obligations. This Section 4 is made for the
express benefit of MIG as well as AERC and may be enforced independently by MIG.
SECTION 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Guarantor
hereby represents and warrants as follows:
(a) The execution, delivery and performance by such
Guarantor of this Guaranty does not and will not (i) violate
any provision of any law, rule, regulation, order, writ,
judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award presently

FORMULA FOR VALUATION OF HOLLYWOOD PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS
I. A UNIT AND B UNIT VALUATIONS: Each A Unit and B Unit shall be equal in
value to the value of a common share, without par value, of AERC
("COMMON SHARES") based upon the following formula:
(i) if the Closing Share Price is greater than or equal to 106% of
the Average Share Price, the value of each A and B Unit shall
equal the result of the Closing Share Price divided by 1.06;
(ii) if the Closing Share Price is less than or equal to the
Average Share Price, the value of each A and B Unit shall
equal the Closing Share Price; or
(iii) if the Closing Share Price is greater than the Average Share
Price but less than 106% of the Average Share Price, the value
of each A and B Unit shall equal the Average Share Price.
For purposes of this Formula:
(A) "AVERAGE SHARE PRICE" shall mean the average of the
closing prices on the New York Stock Exchange of the
Common Shares for the twenty (20) Trading Days
immediately preceding the date hereof.
(B) "CLOSING SHARE PRICE" shall mean the average closing

Unit would otherwise have been deliverable, any Limited Partner
shall be entitled to receive a cash payment therefor in an amount
equal to the value of such fractional interest. Such payment with
respect to fractional Units is merely intended to provide a
mechanical rounding off of, and is not separately bargained for,
consideration. The foregoing shall apply to, under and with respect
