A disapproval by Buyer of any Construction Details shall be accompanied by an explanation of such disapproval. If Seller and Buyer fail to agree on whether any such Construction Details should be approved, such dispute shall be subject to resolution by arbitration under Section 12.20 below. Nothing in this Section 3.3(h) shall require Buyer to approve (or be deemed to have approved) any changes to any items clearly and expressly described in the Approved Plans and Specifications of a Construction Project.

(i) Final Completion. Seller shall deliver written notice to Buyer promptly after Seller believes that Final Completion of a Construction Project has occurred, and such notification shall include all information required under the definition of “Final Completion” set forth in this Agreement. Buyer shall have ten (10) days after such notice to deliver a written notice to Seller approving or disapproving of such Final Completion; if Buyer fails to respond during such ten (10) day period, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved such Final Completion. If Buyer approves, or is deemed to have approved, Final Completion of a Construction Project, the parties shall proceed towards the Closing

of the purchase and sale of such Construction Project in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If Buyer disapproves of Final Completion of a Construction Project, Buyer shall also provide an explanation of such disapproval; provided that Buyer shall have no right to disapprove any aspect of the Construction Project previously approved by Buyer under Section 3.3(h) above. Disputes between Buyer and Seller regarding whether a Construction Defect exists or has been sufficiently replaced, corrected, repaired or otherwise cured that are not resolved after a ten (10) day period of negotiation between Seller and Buyer shall be resolved by arbitration pursuant to Section 12.20 below. If Buyer and Seller agree that a Construction Defect exists, or it is determined pursuant to the arbitration proceedings described in Section 12.20 that a Construction Defect exists, Seller shall promptly attempt to replace, correct, repair or otherwise cure such Construction Defect; provided that if Seller does not so replace, correct, repair or otherwise cure such Construction Defect within ninety (90) days after the latest date provided for in Section 2.4 for the closing of the applicable Construction Project, then the Closing for the sale and purchase of such Construction Project shall proceed in accordance with this Agreement, and Buyer shall be entitled to a credit against the Allocated Purchase Price for such Construction Project, in an amount determined by arbitration pursuant to Section 12.20 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Buyer shall each have the right to terminate this Agreement, with respect to such Property only, if such credit to the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property is in excess of 5% of the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property, in which case the Escrow Agent shall return to Buyer the Allocated ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money for such Property and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to any other Properties for which the Closing has not then occurred. If Seller elects to terminate this Agreement with respect to a Construction Property in accordance with the previous sentence, Buyer may elect, in writing delivered to Seller within ten (10) Business Days after Seller's election to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Property, to terminate this Agreement in its entirety and receive a refund of all of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money then remaining on deposit with the Escrow Agent, reimbursement of Buyer's Transaction Costs and payment from Seller of the applicable Break-up Fee, if any, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than such rights and obligations that expressly survive termination of this Agreement. Under no circumstances shall Buyer be required or be deemed to waive any of its rights under any warranties that are assigned to Buyer hereunder with respect to a Project.

(j) Punch List Holdback. In the event that, as of the Closing of the sale and purchase of any Construction Project, there are any Punch List Items outstanding with respect to such Construction Project, then, at such Closing, the applicable Seller shall deposit a portion of the Applicable Purchase Price for such Construction Project in an amount equal to 110% of the amount required to complete such Punch List Items as reasonably estimated by Seller and reasonably approved by Buyer (such amount, the “Punch List Holdback”) in escrow with the Escrow Agent. Each Punch List Holdback shall be held and disbursed by Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the Punch List Holdback Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit N (the “Punch List Holdback Agreement”).

(k) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan.

(i) The Seller of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property will provide Buyer with copies of all reports and correspondence submitted to or received from the lender under the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan Documents concurrently with delivery or as soon as practicable upon receipt. No amendment or waiver of any of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan Documents will be entered into or requested or accepted by Seller without prior written notice to and consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(ii) Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with the Seller of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property to comply with the provisions of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan Documents permitting the sale of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property to Buyer subject to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan. Such reasonable cooperation shall include, without limitation, (w) delivery of financial and other information required by the terms of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan Documents or otherwise requested by TIAA, (x) creating a single purpose bankruptcy remote entity to take title to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property, which entity shall meet all of the requirements of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan Documents, (y) assuming all of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan Documents at the Closing for the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property and (z) substituting Buyer as the guarantor/indemnitor under the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan Documents, all in accordance with the terms of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan Documents.

(l) Cable/Internet/Phone Service Contracts. From and after the date hereof, the applicable Sellers shall permit Buyer to negotiate (with Seller's participation if Seller so elects) any cable, internet and phone service contracts for the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property, the 1160 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property and the Alpha Mill Phase 2 Property, and shall have the right to direct the applicable Seller to enter into any such contract approved by Buyer prior to the applicable Closing for such Property; provided that the Seller shall not incur any costs related to such contracts other than those costs for which Buyer shall reimburse Seller under Section 8.4 below. Any such contract entered into by the applicable Seller (each, an “Approved CIP Contract”) shall be deemed to be “Contracts” for all purposes of this Agreement, and Schedule 3.2(a) shall be deemed modified to include such Contracts. The applicable Sellers shall not enter into any cable, interest or phone service contracts for the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property, the 1160 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property or the Alpha Mill Phase 2 Property without the Buyer's prior written consent; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the applicable Seller provides Buyer with written notice that it needs to promptly install phone lines in the applicable Property to comply with the construction schedule for such Property and (ii) Buyer has not approved a phone service contract for such Property within 14 days after Buyer's receipt of such notice, the applicable Seller shall be permitted to enter into a phone service contract for such Property without Buyer's consent, and such contract shall be deemed an Approved CIP Contract under this Agreement.

Section 3.4. Survival. The representations, warranties and covenants of Seller as contained in this Agreement shall survive for nine (9) months after the applicable Closing Date. In the event Buyer becomes aware of any material breach and/or violation of any of Seller's representations, warranties or covenants prior to Closing and (a) Buyer fails to give

Seller notice thereof as required hereby or (b) following notice thereof, Seller fails or is unable to cure any such breach or violation to the reasonable satisfaction of Buyer, without modifying the underlying factual basis of such representation or warranty or eliminating any adverse effects of covenant non-compliance, then Buyer's sole remedies for any such breach or violation shall be to (a) seek specific performance to close on such Property, upon which any claim of Buyer for indemnity or reimbursement from Seller on account of such Seller's breach shall be waived, or (b) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice of such termination to Seller on or before the Closing Date, whereupon the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be returned to Buyer, Seller shall reimburse Buyer for Buyer's Transaction Costs promptly upon receipt of paid third party invoices, and thereafter neither party shall have any obligation hereunder, except for Seller's obligation to pay the Break-up Fee to Buyer, if applicable, and those obligations which survive Closing.

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the foregoing indemnity shall survive the Closing or the termination of this Agreement for any reason. Buyer represents and warrants that it carries not less than $5,000,000 general liability insurance with a contractual liability certificate which insures its indemnity obligations under this Agreement, which names Seller and NWR Management LLC, the property manager, as insured thereunder. Prior to Closing, Buyer and its agent and representatives may examine any and all records of Seller located at the Properties and Seller's offices, including without limitation any development, construction and repair records, Lease records, operating records, and tax assessment information.

If Buyer determines, in Buyer's sole and absolute discretion, that the Assets are not acceptable to Buyer or that Buyer is not satisfied in all respects with the information or results of Buyer's investigations and analysis respecting the Assets, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Seller on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, whereupon this Agreement shall be deemed terminated, and in such event, the Escrow Agent shall immediately return the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money together with all interest thereon to Buyer. If Buyer has not delivered written notice of its intention to terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause 6.1(d).

If, at a Closing, there are any title exceptions applicable to the Properties being transferred which are not Permitted Exceptions, then, as part of the escrow Closing process and disbursement of funds at Closing, the Seller may direct the Escrow Agent to use any portion of the Allocated Purchase Price to satisfy the same (and such use of the Allocated Purchase Price shall be deemed to be a payment to or for the benefit of Seller), provided that the Seller shall have delivered to the Escrow Agent or Buyer at the Closing instruments in recordable form sufficient to satisfy and remove such title exceptions of record, together with the cost of any applicable recording or filing fees or such other evidence the Title Company shall deem necessary for the Title Company to remove such exception from the Title Policy. The Buyer, if request is made within a reasonable time prior to the Closing, agrees to cause Escrow Agent to provide at the Closing separate certified or cashier's checks or wire transfers as requested to facilitate the satisfaction of any such title exceptions. The existence of any such liens or encumbrances shall not be deemed objections to title if the Seller shall comply with the foregoing requirements.

Section 6.5. Inability to Convey. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to require the Seller to take or bring any action or proceeding or any other steps to remove any title exception or to expend any moneys therefor, nor shall the Buyer have any right of action against the Seller, at law or in equity, for the Seller's inability to convey title to the Properties subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, provided, however, that Seller shall be obligated to remove on or before each Closing (i) any mortgage created by Seller encumbering the Properties then being transferred (with the exception of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property, with respect to which the existing mortgage shall be assumed by Buyer); (ii) any Liens which can be removed by the payment of a liquidated sum of money, in the aggregate, of up to $250,000 with respect to each Property, (iii) any liens intentionally placed upon the Property then being transferred by Seller after the date hereof without Buyer's prior written consent; and (iv) any Title/Survey Objection with respect to the Property then being transferred that Seller has agreed to cure or caused to be removed pursuant to Section 6.2(a) hereof.

Section 6.6. Cooperation. The Buyer and the Seller shall cooperate with the Title Company in connection with obtaining title insurance insuring title to the Property subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, at or prior to the Closing, the Buyer and the Seller shall deliver to the Title Company such affidavits, certificates and other instruments as are reasonably requested by the Title Company and customarily furnished in connection with the issuance of owner's policies of title insurance, including, without limitation, (i) evidence sufficient to establish (x) the legal existence of the Buyer and the Seller and (y) the authority of the respective signatories of the Seller and the Buyer to bind the Seller and the Buyer, as the case may be, and (ii) a certificate of good standing of Seller. In addition, the Seller shall deliver a Title Affidavit, as provided above.

TRANSACTION COSTS; RISK OF LOSS

Section 7.1. Transaction Costs. The Buyer and each Seller agree to comply with all real estate transfer tax laws applicable to the sale of the Assets. At Closing, the Seller shall pay all real property transfer taxes, deed stamps, conveyance taxes, recordation, documentary stamp taxes and other similar taxes or charges. At Closing, (i) the Seller shall pay all title insurance premiums for a basic owner's title policy and all title search fees, (ii) Buyer shall pay for the cost of all title endorsements obtained by Buyer (except for any endorsements needed to cure any Title/Survey Objection), and (iii) the parties shall split survey costs and the fees and costs of the Escrow Agent arising as a result of the Closing of the transactions contemplated herein. In addition to the foregoing and their respective apportionment obligations hereunder, (a) the Seller and the Buyer shall each be responsible for the payment of the costs of their respective legal counsel, advisors and other professionals employed thereby in connection with the sale of the Assets, and (b) the Buyer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses associated with the Buyer's due diligence. Each party to this Agreement shall indemnify the other parties and their respective successors and assigns from and against any and all loss, damage, cost, charge, liability or expense (including court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) which such other party may sustain or incur as a result of the failure of either party to timely pay any of the aforementioned taxes, fees or other charges for which it has assumed responsibility under this Section 7.1. The Seller shall pay the loan assumption fee specified in the loan documents governing the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Loan together with interest thereon accrued through the Closing Date and all other fees, expenses (inclusive of lender and servicer legal fees) and charges payable to or for the account of the lender and any servicers in connection with such loan assumption.

Section 7.2. Risk of Loss. i. If, on or before the Closing Date, any of the Properties or any “material portion” thereof shall be (i) damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty or (ii) taken as a result of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding or subject to any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, the Seller shall promptly notify the Buyer, and the Buyer may either at or prior to the Closing, in its sole discretion:

(A) terminate this Agreement, solely with respect to the damaged Property, in which case (x) all references to such Property shall be removed from this Agreement, and Buyer shall be entitled to a return of the Allocated ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money of such Property, and (y) this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect with respect to all of the other Properties; or

(B) consummate the Closing, in which event the Seller will credit against the Purchase Price payable by the Buyer at the Closing an amount equal to the sum of (x) the net proceeds, if any, received by the Seller from such casualty or condemnation, inclusive of the proceeds of any rent loss or business interruption insurance for period following the Closing Date, and (y) the applicable deductible, if any, with respect to such casualty. If as of the applicable Closing Date, the Seller has not received any such insurance or condemnation proceeds, then the parties shall nevertheless consummate on the Closing Date the conveyance of the Assets (without any deduction for such insurance or

condemnation proceeds) and the Seller will at Closing assign to the Buyer all rights of the Seller, if any, to the insurance or condemnation proceeds and to all other rights or claims arising out of or in connection with such casualty or condemnation.

(b) If, on or before any Closing Date, a portion of any Property being then transferred which is not a “material portion” is (i) damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty or (ii) taken as a result of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, then Seller shall promptly give notice to Buyer and, the Buyer and Seller shall proceed to Closing pursuant to Subparagraph 7.2(a)(B) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on or before the Closing Date, (i) a portion of any Property which is not a “material portion” is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, (ii) such damage or destruction is not insured and (iii) Buyer reasonably estimates that the cost to repair such uninsured damage or destruction will exceed the sum of $25,000, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement solely with respect to the damaged Property by delivering written notice thereof to Seller within five (5) business days of Buyer's receipt of notice of such damage or destruction, in which event neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder solely with respect to such damaged Property and the Allocated ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money applicable to such damaged Property shall be returned to Buyer.

(c) For purposes of this Section 7.2, a “material portion” with respect to a Property shall mean any one or more of the following: (i) any portion which materially and adversely affects access to such Property; (ii) any portion which constitutes more than 10% of the parking spaces at such Property or such lesser number of parking spaces that, if they cannot be restored, will cause the Property to fail to comply with Applicable Law; or (iii) any portion where the cost to repair or restore will be equal to or in excess of 5% of the Allocated Purchase Price of such Property.

ARTICLE VIII

ADJUSTMENTS

The initial prorations and payments provided for in this Article VIII shall be made at each Closing on the basis of the Closing Statement as approved by Buyer and Seller. The Closing Statement shall be prepared by Seller and submitted to Buyer for its review and approval at least two (2) business days prior to such Closing. Buyer and Seller shall give their respective final approval of the Closing Statement on or before such Closing. The following shall be prorated between Seller and Buyer as of the applicable Closing Date (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over the applicable period) and shall be added to the Allocated Purchase Price (if in Seller's favor) or deducted from the Allocated Purchase Price (if in the Buyer's favor) at such Closing, with Buyer being deemed to be the owner of the Properties then being transferred starting at 12:00 A.M. on the applicable Closing Date and being entitled to receive all operating income of the Properties then being transferred, and being obligated to pay all operating expenses of the Properties then being transferred, with respect to the applicable Closing Date:

Section 8.1. Taxes. All non-delinquent real estate and personal property taxes and assessments on the Properties for the current year based on the most current official real property tax information available from the county assessor's office where the Property is located

or other assessing authorities. If real property tax and assessment figures for the taxes or assessments to be apportioned between the Buyer and the Seller pursuant to this Section 8.1 are not available, real property taxes shall be prorated based on the most recent assessment, subject to further and final adjustment when the tax rate and/or assessed valuation for such taxes and assessments for the Properties is fixed. Seller shall be responsible for the payment of any real estate and personal property taxes that are delinquent before Closing. In no event shall Seller be charged with or be responsible for any increase in the taxes on the Properties resulting from the sale of the Properties contemplated by this Agreement, change in use of the Properties, or from any improvements made or leases entered into on or after the applicable Closing Date. If any general assessments on the Properties are payable in installments, then the installment allocable to the current period shall be prorated (with Buyer being allocated the obligation to pay any installments due after the Closing Date). Notwithstanding the foregoing, all such taxes shall be apportioned on a calendar year basis. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, if, at the time of Closing, any special assessments are an encumbrance on, or are assessed against, the Properties (whether payable in a lump sum or installment payments), then Seller shall pay the full amount of such special assessments (or the remaining balance thereof, as the case may be) so that, upon Closing, such special assessments will no longer be an encumbrance on or assessed against the Properties after Closing, provided, however, that in no event shall any amounts payable as dues or fees under or to any property owner's association affecting the Properties be considered special assessments.

Section 8.2. Rents and Security Deposits. All rents under the Leases and all rents or fees for storage units or parking spaces, including monthly pet rent (but expressly excluding any one-time nonrefundable pet fees) (collectively, “Rents”), security deposits (except as hereinafter provided), key deposits and other tenant deposits and charges. Seller shall deliver or provide a credit in an amount equal to all prepaid Rents for periods after the Closing Date and all refundable cash security deposits (to the extent the foregoing were made by tenants under the Leases and are not applied or forfeited prior to the Closing in accordance with the terms of the applicable Lease) to Buyer on the Closing Date. Rents that are delinquent (or payable but unpaid) as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated on the Closing Date. Any Rents collected by the Buyer or the Seller after the Closing from any Tenant who owes Rents for periods prior to the Closing, shall be applied (i) first, in payment of Rents owed by such Tenant for the month in which the Closing occurs, (ii) second, in payment of current rentals at the time of receipt, (iii) third, to delinquent rentals, if any, which became due after the Closing, and (iv) then to delinquent rentals, if any, which became due and payable prior to the Closing; provided, however, that any year-end or similar reconciliation payment shall be allocated as hereinafter provided. The Buyer shall ▇▇▇▇ Tenants who owe Rents for periods prior to the Closing on a monthly basis following the Closing and use commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to collect such past due Rents, but shall not be obligated to engage a collection agency or take legal action to collect such amount. The Seller shall have the right, upon prior written notice to the Buyer, to pursue Tenants to collect such delinquencies but shall not be able to institute litigation to collect such amounts, without the prior written consent of the Buyer in Buyer's sole discretion, provided, the Buyer agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Seller in connection with such collection (at no cost or expense to the Buyer). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Seller have the right to terminate or attempt to terminate any Lease or evict or attempt to evict any Tenant.

Section 8.3. Water Rates, etc. Water rates, water meter charges, sewer rents and vault charges, if any (other than any such charges, rates or rents which are payable directly to the utility company or municipality by Tenants of the Property pursuant to such Tenants' Leases, for which no adjustment shall be made), shall be adjusted and prorated on the basis of the fiscal period for which assessed. If there is a water meter, or meters, on the Properties, the Seller agrees that they shall at the Closing furnish a reading of same to a date not more than 30 days prior to the Closing and the unfixed meter charges and the unfixed sewer rent thereon for the time intervening from the date of the last reading shall be apportioned on the basis of such last reading, and shall be appropriately readjusted after the Closing on the basis of the next subsequent bills. Unmetered water charges shall be apportioned on the basis of the charges therefor for the same period of the preceding calendar year, but applying the current rate thereto.

Section 8.4. Utilities. Gas, steam, electricity and other public utility charges (other than any such charges which are payable by Tenants of the Properties directly to the applicable utility company pursuant to such Tenants' Leases, for which no adjustment will be made) will be paid by the Seller to the utility company through the Closing Date. The Seller shall arrange for a final reading of all utility meters (covering gas, water, steam and electricity) as of the Closing, except meters the charges of which are payable by Tenants of the Properties directly to the applicable utility company pursuant to such Tenants' Leases. The Seller and the Buyer shall jointly execute a letter to each of such utility companies advising such utility companies of the termination of the Seller's responsibility for such charges for utilities furnished to the Properties as of the date of the Closing and commencement of the Buyer's responsibilities therefor from and after such date. If a ▇▇▇▇ is obtained from any such utility company as of the Closing, the Seller shall pay such ▇▇▇▇ on or before the Closing. If such ▇▇▇▇ shall not have been obtained on or before the Closing, the Seller shall, upon receipt of such ▇▇▇▇, pay all such utility charges as evidenced by such ▇▇▇▇ or bills pertaining to the period prior to the Closing, and the Buyer shall pay all such utility charges pertaining to the period thereafter. Any ▇▇▇▇ which shall be rendered which shall cover a period both before and after the date of Closing shall be apportioned between the Buyer and the Seller as of the Closing. Monthly fees payable to any Seller hereunder with respect to any Property for cable, internet or phone services for such Property shall be prorated as of the applicable Closing; provided, however, that any up-front fees and any reimbursement of expenses paid or payable to such Seller or any predecessor in interest in connection with cable, internet or phone services for each of the Properties (except for the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property, the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ Property and the 1160 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property), shall not be prorated, and shall be the property of such Seller, and Buyer shall remit any such sums to Seller immediately upon receipt thereof. With respect to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property, the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ Property and the 1160 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property, from and after the applicable Closing, the Buyer shall be entitled to receive and retain any up-front fees payable under any Approved CIP Contracts (and Seller shall promptly remit any such sums to Buyer if received by Seller after the Closing). If Seller receives any up-front fees payable under any Approved CIP Contracts prior to Closing, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price for the applicable Property at Closing in an amount equal to such up-front fee. At the applicable Closing, Buyer shall reimburse the applicable Seller for any costs incurred by such Seller under any Approved CIP Contract beyond the costs of such Seller providing (i) conduit access from the street to the data communication closets of the applicable Property and (ii) phone and coaxial wiring in each unit of such Property back to the central media panel in such unit.

Section 8.7. Rent-Ready Credit.

If any such apartment is not in a “Rent Ready Condition,” or if any appliance located therein is not in working order as of the Closing Date, Seller agrees, in either instance, that Seller shall have no obligation to put such units into rent-ready condition but instead will give Buyer at Closing a credit equal to Five Hundred and no/100 Dollars ($500.00) for each such unit.

Section 8.8. Other. If applicable, the Allocated Purchase Price shall be adjusted at the Closing to reflect the adjustment of any other item which, under the explicit terms of this Agreement, is to be apportioned at Closing.

Section 8.9. General. Any other items of operating income or operating expense that are customarily apportioned between the parties in real estate closings of comparable properties in the metropolitan area where the Property is located, as applicable; however, there will be no prorations for insurance premiums, payroll or other employee costs.

Section 8.10. Construction Deposits. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (i) Seller (or Affiliates thereof, including without limitation the General Contractor) has provided (or, in Seller's sole discretion may provide) certain security and other deposits, sureties, bonds and/or other similar items in connection with the completion of the Construction Projects (collectively, “Construction Deposits”), including without limitation those set forth on Schedule 8.10 attached hereto, and (ii) the Seller shall be entitled to the entirety of any refund or return of any such Construction Deposits, and for the avoidance of doubt, such amounts shall not be prorated.

Section 8.11. Re-Adjustment. (a) In the event any prorations or apportionments made under this Article VIII shall prove to be incorrect for any reason, then any party shall be entitled to an adjustment to correct the same. Any item that cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and reprorated when the information is available.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, all reprorations contemplated by this Agreement shall be completed within one (1) year after Closing (subject to extension solely as necessary due to the unavailability of final information but in no event to exceed eighteen (18) months after Closing).

The Seller and the Buyer shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against all costs, claims and expenses, including attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with the performance of the Escrow Agent's duties hereunder.

(d) The Escrow Agent has acknowledged its agreement to these provisions by signing this Agreement in the place indicated following the signatures of the Seller and the Buyer.
