2.1

Overview; Capital Allocations.

(a)

This Article 2 provides rules for the submission by Aimco and the approval or disapproval by APFC of Projects.

Subject to the foregoing and as set forth more fully in the form of the Venture Agreement, the following general terms shall apply to each Project:

(1)

The applicable Venture will make distributions as set forth in the distribution waterfall in the Venture Agreement, on a stand-alone basis without reference to any cash flows other than contributions to and distributions from such Venture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Phased Project, the distribution waterfall shall be applied separately with respect to each Phase, subject to the clawback obligation of Aimco or its Affiliate as set forth in the Venture Agreement.

To the extent that a lender requires a completion guaranty or any customary nonrecourse carve-out guarantees or indemnities, such guaranties and/or indemnities will be provided by Aimco or its creditworthy affiliate. In no event will APFC be obligated to provide any loan guarantees or indemnities in connection with any financing.

(5)

Aimco or its Affiliate shall provide cost overrun protections as set forth in the Venture Agreement for each Selected Final Project.

2.2

Preliminary Review.

(a)

Aimco shall submit each Qualifying Project to APFC for preliminary review (“Preliminary Review”) no later than the date that is twelve (12) months after the applicable Aimco Sole Control Party acquires fee title to the land for such Qualifying Project. Aimco may, but shall not be obligated to, submit any Non-Qualifying Project to APFC for Preliminary Review no later than the date that is twelve (12) months after Aimco or its Affiliate acquires title to the land for such Non-Qualifying Project. For clarity, Aimco may submit a Qualifying Project or Non-Qualifying Project to APFC for Preliminary Review prior to the date on which Aimco or its Affiliate acquires or contracts to acquire title to the land for such Qualifying Project or Non-Qualifying Project.

101766\14903945v9

determined in accordance with Section 2.8. In addition, prior to or concurrently with the delivery to APFC of the Initial Investment Package, Aimco shall deliver to APFC, with respect to such Submitted Preliminary Project, the documents and materials set forth on Exhibit B, to the extent the same exist and are reasonably available to Aimco. Promptly following request, Aimco shall deliver such other information as APFC reasonably requests, to the extent such documents, materials and other information are reasonably available to Aimco, and any supplemental materials requested within the initial ten (10) day period following delivery of the Initial Investment Package shall restart the review period described in Section 2.2(d) until delivered or Aimco confirms such supplemental materials are not available to Aimco.

(c)

In submitting the Initial Investment Package to APFC, Aimco shall provide to APFC: (i) a certification by Aimco that it has conducted due diligence of the Project, in accordance with the standard of Due Care (as defined in the Venture Agreement) and a summary of the due diligence conducted by Aimco with respect to the Project and the conclusions thereof, including a copy of any material third party reports obtained by Aimco, and (ii) a statement as to whether Aimco reasonably expects the Project, as of the date of the Venture Closing, will satisfy the parameters set forth on Exhibit E in all material respects (or noting any exceptions).

(d)

No later than the date that is twenty-five (25) days after receipt of the Initial Investment Package for a Submitted Preliminary Project, APFC shall notify Aimco in writing that (i) APFC preliminarily approves the Submitted Preliminary Project (“Preliminary Approval”) or (ii) APFC does not preliminarily approve the Submitted Preliminary Project. If APFC fails to timely notify Aimco that it preliminarily approves the Submitted Preliminary Project, then it shall be deemed to have declined to grant Preliminary Approval of the Submitted Preliminary Project. If APFC grants Preliminary Approval of a Submitted Preliminary Project, then such Project shall constitute a “Selected Preliminary Project.” Upon a Submitted Preliminary Project becoming a Selected Preliminary Project, the Pursuit Budget shall be deemed approved and APFC shall from time to time within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of written request, reimburse Aimco for the APFC Percentage Interest of the portion of the Pursuit Budget incurred to date by Aimco with respect to such Selected Preliminary Project. If APFC declines or is deemed to have declined Preliminary Approval of a Submitted Preliminary Project, then such Submitted Preliminary Project shall constitute a “Rejected Project”, but shall be offered again to APFC pursuant to Section 2.3.

(e)

Following Preliminary Approval of a Selected Preliminary Project, Aimco shall continue such acquisition and development activities with respect to the Selected Preliminary Project as Aimco determines in its good faith business judgment, in accordance with the Pursuit Schedule and Pursuit Budget for such Selected Preliminary Project approved by APFC as part of the Preliminary Approval. Aimco shall keep APFC informed of the progress of the Selected Preliminary Project and provide to APFC such information regarding the Selected Preliminary Project as APFC may reasonably request from time to time. Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of written draw request from Aimco (not more frequently than monthly), containing such information as APFC may reasonable require, APFC shall fund the APFC Percentage Interest of the Pursuit Costs incurred by Aimco in accordance with the Pursuit Budget approved by APFC in connection with the Preliminary Approval of such Selected Preliminary Project, provided that Aimco has funded (or is concurrently funding) the Aimco Percentage Interest of such Pursuit

101766\14903945v9

Costs. APFC’s obligation to fund the APFC Percentage Interest of Pursuit Costs for a Selected Preliminary Project shall terminate at Final Approval of such Project (and shall be considered capital contributions to the Venture for such Selected Preliminary Project) or when APFC declines to provide such Final Approval, subject to Section 2.4(b). After Preliminary Approval of a Selected Preliminary Project, any modification of the Pursuit Schedule or Pursuit Budget for such Selected Preliminary Project shall be subject to the approval of APFC, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.

2.3

Final Review.

(a)

Aimco shall submit each Qualifying Project (whether or not such Project is a Selected Preliminary Project) to APFC for final review (“Final Review”) no later than the date that is thirty (30) days after the Vertical Commitment Date.

In addition, prior to or concurrently with the delivery to APFC of the Final Investment Package, Aimco shall deliver to APFC, with respect to such Submitted Final Project, the documents and materials set forth on Exhibit C, to the extent the same exist and are reasonably available to Aimco. Promptly following request, Aimco shall deliver such other information available to Aimco as APFC reasonably requests, to the extent such documents, materials and other information are reasonably available to Aimco; provided that any delivery of supplemental materials pursuant to this sentence shall not restart the fifteen (15) Business Day period described in Section 2.3(c).

(c)

No later than the date that is fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of the Final Investment Package for a Submitted Final Project, APFC shall notify Aimco in writing that (i) APFC approves the Submitted Final Project (“Final Approval”) or (ii) APFC does not approve the Submitted Final Project. If APFC fails to timely advise Aimco that it approves the Submitted Final Project, then it shall be deemed to have declined to approve the Submitted Final Project. If APFC grants Final Approval of a Submitted Final Project, then such Project shall constitute a “Selected Final Project.” If APFC declines or is deemed to have declined Final Approval of a Submitted Final Project, then such Submitted Final Project shall constitute a “Rejected Project”.

101766\14903945v9

(d)

In the event that APFC grants Final Approval of a Submitted Final Project, then within thirty (30) days after such Final Approval, Aimco and APFC shall complete the Venture Closing for the Venture for such Submitted Final Project. At the Venture Closing, APFC and Aimco shall (i) cause the Venture to be formed for such Submitted Final Project, (ii) execute (or cause their respective Affiliates to execute) the Venture Documents for such Venture, and (iii) take such other actions as may be required under the Venture Agreement for such Venture upon the execution thereof (including reflecting contributions for Pursuit Costs as Capital Contributions and the advance of the initial Capital Contributions contemplated by such Venture Agreement).

(e)

For any Selected Preliminary Project, in the event that the Vertical Commitment Date has not occurred by the Outside Vertical Commitment Date, Aimco shall notify APFC in writing of a new Outside Vertical Commitment Date determined in good faith, together with an explanation regarding the reason for the delay in the Vertical Commitment Date. During the thirty (30) day period after receipt of such notice, APFC may elect, by written notice to Aimco, to either accept the new Outside Vertical Commitment Date or withdraw from the Selected Preliminary Project (and APFC’s failure to so notify Aimco shall be deemed its election to withdraw). If APFC elects (or is deemed to have elected) to withdraw, then within thirty (30) days after such election, Aimco shall elect, by written notice to APFC, to either (i) continue such Selected Preliminary Project or (ii) discontinue such Selected Preliminary Project. If APFC elects (or is deemed to have elected) to withdraw from the Selected Preliminary Project, then Aimco shall not be obligated to submit such Selected Preliminary Project to APFC for Final Review and Section 2.4(b) shall apply.

(f)

In the case of any Project for which the Fair Market Value will be included in the Final Investment Package, Aimco may (prior to submission of the Final Investment Package) provide written notice to APFC of its determination of such Fair Market Value. No later than the date that is ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice, APFC shall notify Aimco in writing whether APFC approves or disapproves such Fair Market Value (and APFC’s failure to timely respect shall be deemed disapproval). If APFC approves such Fair Market Value, then such Fair Market Value will be included in the Final Investment Package for such Project. If APFC does not approve (or is deemed to disapprove) such Fair Market Value, then Aimco may initiate the process set forth on Exhibit D for determining the Fair Market Value for such Project.

(g)

If APFC does not approve the Fair Market Value of any Project set forth in the Final Investment Package, and such Fair Market Value was not previously determined pursuant to Section 2.3(f), then during the ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such Final Investment Package, APFC may notify Aimco in writing that it does not approve such Fair Market Value. If APFC timely provides such notice, then (i) either Aimco or APFC may initiate the process set forth on Exhibit D for determining the Fair Market Value for such Project and (ii) the ten (10) Business Day period set forth in Section 2.3(c) shall be tolled until the Fair Market Value is so determined (at which time Section 2.3(c) shall continue in accordance with its terms).

Provided, that if the Net Proceeds are insufficient to pay to Aimco and APFC all amounts required pursuant to the foregoing clause (A) (such insufficiency, the “Shortfall”), then Aimco shall pay to APFC an amount equal to (i) the Shortfall multiplied by (ii) a percentage equal to the excess of 50% over the Aimco Percentage Interest.

(2)

If Aimco elects to continue such Selected Preliminary Project, then on or before six (6) months after such election, Aimco shall pay to APFC any amount equal to the amount that would be payable to APFC pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(1) if such assets were sold for such Fair Market Value and the Net Proceeds of such sale were distributed to APFC and Aimco pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(1). APFC shall thereafter have no further rights or obligations with respect to such Selected Preliminary Project. Either Aimco or APFC may initiate the process set forth on Exhibit D for determining Fair Market Value at any time after Aimco elects to continue such Selected Project.

(c)

If APFC declines or is deemed to decline to grant Preliminary Approval of a Submitted Preliminary Project, and thereafter such Project becomes a Submitted Final Project and APFC declines or is deemed to decline to grant Final Approval of such Submitted Final

101766\14903945v9

Project, then Aimco, at its sole cost and expense, may pursue and acquire for its own account, through an Affiliate or with a third party, such Submitted Final Project.

(d)

If APFC grants Preliminary Approval of a Submitted Preliminary Project (i.e., such Project becomes a Selected Preliminary Project), and APFC later declines or is deemed to decline to grant Final Approval of such Selected Preliminary Project, the Pursuit Costs actually funded by APFC and not reimbursed pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(1) or (2) (in lieu of the previously approved APFC Capital Allocation for such Selected Preliminary Project) shall thereafter be counted toward the allocated APFC Capital Allocation for all purposes under this Agreement.

2.5

Exclusivity.

(a)

Aimco agrees that at all times prior to the Exclusivity Termination Date, it will offer (and will cause each of its Affiliates to offer) to APFC the right to invest in, through a Venture, any Qualifying Project presented or offered to, or otherwise discovered or found by, Aimco or any of its Affiliates which Aimco or any of its Affiliates elects to pursue, all in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 2.2 and 2.3. From and after the Exclusivity Termination Date, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to Section 2.6(a) and Section 2.6(b) in the case of Selected Projects, Aimco shall have the right but not the obligation to follow the procedures set forth in Sections 2.2 and 2.3 with respect to a prospective Submitted Project.

(b)

Aimco and its Affiliates at all times shall be free to directly or indirectly acquire and develop Non-Qualifying Projects without any obligation to APFC hereunder. Aimco, from time to time and in any case following a request from APFC, shall notify APFC of Non-Qualifying Projects for which Aimco or an Affiliate has entered into a legally binding contract to acquire during the three (3) month period preceding such notice.

2.6

Term. This Agreement shall remain in force and effect until the Commitment Termination Date. This Agreement shall remain in force and effect following the Commitment Termination Date only to the following extent:

(a)

For any Selected Preliminary Project for which the Final Review process has not been completed, this Agreement shall survive as to such Selected Preliminary Project until the earlier of (i) completion of the Final Review process for such Selected Preliminary Project and, if APFC grants Final Approval of such Selected Preliminary Project, until the Venture Closing with respect to such Project has occurred, and (ii) completion by the parties of their obligations under Section 2.3(e).

(b)

For any Selected Final Project for which the Venture Closing has not yet occurred, then this Agreement shall survive as to such Selected Final Project until such Venture Closing has occurred.

(c)

For clarity, the Commitment Termination Date shall not affect APFC’s and Aimco’s respective rights and obligations under the Venture Documents with respect to Selected Final Projects as to which the Venture Closing has occurred.

101766\14903945v9

(d)

The obligation to pay any amount which accrues prior to the Commitment Termination Date or earlier termination of this Agreement shall survive the Commitment Termination Date or such earlier termination.

2.7

Phased Project. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Phased Project” consists of a Project that consists of more than one separate phases (each, a “Phase”), each of which is underwritten, developed, constructed and financed independently. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for all purposes under this Agreement, including this Article 2, each Phase shall be treated as an independent Project, except that upon APFC’s grant of Final Approval of a Submitted Final Project that is a second or subsequent Phase within a given Project, Section 2.3(d) shall be modified so that such Phase shall be included within the then-existing Venture for such Project, as opposed to a newly formed Venture, and the then-existing Venture Documents shall be amended to reflect the addition of such Phase.

2.8

Percentage Interests. For each Selected Project, the respective Percentage Interests of Aimco and APFC shall be determined as follows (unless otherwise agreed by Aimco and APFC):

(a)

For each Selected Project that is a Phased Project, or is a Phase of a Phased Project, the Aimco Percentage Interest shall be twenty-five percent (25%) and the APFC Percentage Interest shall be seventy-five percent (75%).

(b)

For each Selected Project that is not a Phased Project, and is not a Phase of a Phased Project, the Aimco Percentage Interest shall be ten percent (10%) and the APFC Percentage Interest shall be ninety percent (90%).

Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Aimco. Aimco hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants to APFC, which representations, warranties and covenants shall be deemed remade upon the submission to APFC for review and approval of any Investment Package (except to the extent Aimco shall otherwise notify APFC):

(a)

Aimco is a Delaware limited liability company duly formed and validly existing under the laws of the state of its organization, with all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now being conducted. Aimco has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated to be entered into by it in connection herewith and to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

(b)

The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other agreements to be entered into by it in connection herewith and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Aimco. This Agreement and such other agreements have been executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of Aimco and constitute the valid and binding obligations of Aimco, enforceable against Aimco in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, subject as to enforcement to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity.

(c)

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other agreements contemplated hereby by Aimco do not: (i) violate any decree or judgment of any court or governmental authority that are applicable to Aimco; (ii) violate any law (or regulation promulgated under any law); (iii) violate or conflict with, or result in a breach of, or constitute a

101766\14903945v9

(e)

To Aimco’s Knowledge, no item prepared by Aimco or its Affiliates included in any Investment Package misstates any material fact or circumstance regarding the applicable Project. To Aimco’s Knowledge, no item prepared for Aimco or its Affiliates by an unrelated third party and included in any Investment Package misstates any material fact or circumstance regarding the applicable Project.

For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Aimco’s Knowledge” means the current actual knowledge, of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (“Aimco Knowledge Parties”), who are the persons who would, in the ordinary course of their responsibilities as employees or agents of Aimco, receive notice from other agents or employees of Seller or from other persons or entities of any of the matters described in the representations and warranties in this Agreement which are limited by the knowledge of Seller. Aimco shall have the right, to be exercised from time to time by written notice to APFC, to substitute as new Aimco Knowledge Parties individuals who satisfy the requirements set forth in the foregoing sentence.

Prior to the Exclusivity Termination Date, neither Aimco nor any Affiliate of Aimco will enter into any contract, agreement or other arrangement or understanding which conflicts with or is inconsistent in any material respect with this Agreement, or prevents, frustrates, limits or restricts Aimco’s ability to fully perform its obligations under this Agreement, nor shall Aimco or any of its Affiliates, prior to the Exclusivity Termination Date, conduct discussions or negotiations with any party in connection with any such contract, agreement or other arrangement or understanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after either APFC or Aimco has given a notice of termination to the other as described in the definition of “Commitment Termination Date” or “Exclusivity Termination Date”, Aimco may conduct discussions or negotiations, and enter into agreements, with capital providers for the financing of Projects which first arise after expiration of the Commitment Period; provided, however, prior to the Exclusivity Termination Date, Aimco shall continue to comply with its other obligations set forth in this Agreement (e.g., delivering Submitted Projects and Investment Packages to APFC for its review and consideration).
