WHEREAS, the Operating Partnership desires to acquire from each Contributor, and each Contributor desires to transfer to the Operating Partnership, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, all of such Contributor’s Interests in Plainfield Partners.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and conditions set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Operating Partnership and the Contributors agree as follows:

ARTICLE 2: REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF

CONTRIBUTOR

As a material inducement to the Operating Partnership to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, each Contributor hereby makes to the Operating Partnership each of the representations and warranties set forth in this Article 2, severally but not jointly, which representations and warranties are true and correct as of the date hereof.

This Agreement and each agreement, document and instrument executed and delivered by or on behalf of Contributor pursuant to this Agreement constitutes, or when executed and delivered will constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Contributor, each enforceable in accordance with its respective terms. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each such agreement, document and instrument by or on behalf of Contributor (i) does not and will not violate any foreign, federal, state, local or other laws applicable to such Contributor or require such Contributor to obtain any approval, consent or waiver of, or make any filing with, any person or authority (governmental or otherwise) that will not be obtained or made at or prior to the Closing, and (ii) if such Contributor is not an individual, does not and will not violate such Contributor’s partnership agreement, operating agreement or other organizational documents, (iii) except for the consent of Artesia Mortgage Capital Corporation (the “Lender”), which will be obtained prior to Closing, does not and will not violate any term, condition or provision of, or constitute a default under, any bond, note or other evidence of indebtedness or any contract, lease or other instrument to which such Contributor is a party or by which the property of such Contributor is bound or affected, and (iv) does not and will not result in the creation of any Encumbrance on the CB&I Property or assets of Plainfield Partners.

2.3 Litigation. There is no litigation or proceeding, either judicial or administrative, pending or, to Contributor’s knowledge, threatened, affecting all or any portion of such Contributor’s Interests, the CB&I Property or such Contributor’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. There is no outstanding order, writ, injunction or decree of any court, government, governmental entity or authority or arbitration against or affecting all or any portion of Contributor’s Interests or the CB&I Property, which in any such case would impair such Contributor’s ability to enter into and perform all of such Contributor’s obligations under this Agreement.

2.4 No Agreements to Sell. Except to the extent contemplated herein, Contributor is not currently a party to any agreement to sell, transfer or otherwise encumber or dispose of such Contributor’s Interest.

2.5 Status as a United States Person. Contributor represents and warrants that such Contributor is not a foreign person within the meaning of Section 1445 of the Code (“Section 1445”). Contributor’s U.S. social security number (in the case of an individual) or U.S. taxpayer identification number (in the case of an entity) that has previously been provided to Plainfield Partners is correct. Contributor’s home address (in the case of an individual) or office address (in the case of an entity) is that most recent address previously provided to Plainfield Partners. Upon request by the Operating Partnership, Contributor agrees to complete and provide to the Operating Partnership prior to the Closing a certificate of non-foreign status substantially in the form provided in Section 1.1445-5(b)(3)(D) of the Treasury regulations.

2.6 No Insolvency Proceedings. No attachments, execution proceedings, assignments for the benefit of creditors, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other proceedings are pending or, to Contributor’s knowledge, threatened against such Contributor or the CB&I Property, nor are any such proceedings contemplated by such Contributor.

2.7 No Brokers. Contributor represents that it has not entered into, and covenants that it will not enter into, any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or firm

which will result in the obligation of the Operating Partnership to pay any brokerage commission in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

2.8 Conditional Nature of Transaction. Contributor acknowledges and understands that it is a condition to the Operating Partnership’s obligations to close the transactions contemplated hereby that the contribution of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property shall have occurred (or will occur simultaneously with the Closing), that the occurrence of the contribution of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property is wholly within the sole and absolute discretion of the REIT, the Operating Partnership, and their affiliates, and that such Contributor has no right to force the contribution of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property to occur, on any terms.

2.9 Securities Law Matters; Transfer Restrictions.

(a) Contributor acknowledges that the Operating Partnership intends the offer and issuance of the Units to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and applicable state securities laws by virtue of (i) the status of such Contributor as an “accredited investor” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, and (ii) Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act (“Regulation D”), and that the Operating Partnership will rely in part upon the representations and warranties made by such Contributor in this Agreement in making the determination that the offer and issuance of the Units qualify for exemption under Rule 506 of Regulation D as an offer and sale only to “accredited investors.”

(b) Contributor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of the federal securities laws.

(c) Contributor will acquire the Units for his or its own account and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act. Contributor does not intend or anticipate that such Contributor will rely on this investment as a principal source of income.

(d) Contributor has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial, tax, and business matters to enable him to evaluate the merits and risks of investment in the Units. Contributor has the ability to bear the economic risk of acquiring the Units. Contributor acknowledges that (i) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement involve complex tax consequences for such Contributor, and Contributor is relying solely on the advice of such Contributor’s own tax advisors in evaluating such consequences, (ii) the Operating Partnership has not made (nor shall it be deemed to have made) any representations or warranties as to the tax consequences of such transaction to such Contributor, and (iii) references in this Agreement to the intended tax effect of the transactions contemplated hereby shall not be deemed to imply any representation by the Operating Partnership as to a particular tax effect that may be obtained by such Contributor. Contributor remains solely responsible for all tax matters relating to such Contributor.

(e) Contributor has been supplied with, or had access to, information to which a reasonable investor would attach significance in making an investment decision to acquire the Units and any other information such Contributor has requested. Contributor has had an opportunity to ask questions of, and receive information and answers from, the Operating Partnership and the REIT concerning the Operating Partnership, the REIT, the Units, the contribution of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Property and the REIT common shares into which the Units may be redeemed, and to assess and evaluate any information supplied to such Contributor by the

Operating Partnership or the REIT, and all such questions have been answered, and all such information has been provided to the full satisfaction of such Contributor.

(f) Contributor acknowledges that such Contributor is aware that there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Units and that the Units will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and such Contributor has no right to require that they be so registered. Contributor agrees that any Units he acquires will not be sold in the absence of registration unless such sale is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Contributor acknowledges that such Contributor shall be responsible for compliance with all conditions on transfer imposed by any securities authority and for any expenses incurred by the Operating Partnership for legal or accounting services in connection with reviewing such a proposed transfer or issuing opinions in connection therewith.

(g) Contributor understands that no federal agency (including the Securities and Exchange Commission) or state agency has made or will make any finding or determination as to the fairness of an investment in the Units (including, as to the Contributor, the Agreed Value determined pursuant to Section 1.2(a)).

(h) Contributor understands that there is no established public, private or other market for the Units acquired by such Contributor hereunder and it is not anticipated that there will be any public, private or other market for such Units in the foreseeable future.

(i) Contributor understands that Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act is not currently available with respect to the sale of Units.

2.10 Reliance. Contributor acknowledges that it understands the meaning and legal consequences of the representations and warranties in this Article 2, and that the Operating Partnership may rely upon such representations and warranties in determining whether to enter into this Agreement. Contributor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Operating Partnership, the REIT, and the officers, directors and affiliates thereof, and any employees or agents of any of the foregoing, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all expenses, including attorneys’ fees, reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any claim or litigation commenced or threatened) due to or arising out of a breach of any such representations or warranties.
