Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned hereby acknowledges that he or she has received and
reviewed (i) the Purchaser's Offer to Purchase (and a Supplement thereto, dated
September 3,1999) relating to the offer by AIMCO Properties, L.P. (the
"Purchaser") to purchase Limited Partnership Interests (the "Units") in the
Partnership and (ii) this Letter of Transmittal and the Instructions hereto, as
each may be supplemented or amended from time to time (collectively, the
"Offer").
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to
Purchase (including the Supplement thereto), and this Letter of Transmittal,
the undersigned hereby tenders to the Purchaser the Units set forth in the box
above entitled "Description of Units Tendered," including all interests in any
limited partnership represented by such units (collectively, the "Units"), at
the price indicated on the Offer to Purchase, less the amount of distributions,
if any, made by the Partnership from the Offer Date until the Expiration Date
(the "Offer Price"), net to the undersigned in cash, without interest.
Subject to and effective upon acceptance for payment of any of the Units
tendered hereby in accordance with the terms of the Offer, the undersigned
hereby irrevocably sells, assigns, transfers, conveys and delivers to, or upon
the order of, the Purchaser all right, title and interest in and to such Units
tendered hereby that are accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer, including,
without limitation, (i) all of the undersigned's interest in the capital of the
Partnership, and the undersigned's interest in all profits, losses and
distributions of any kind to which the undersigned shall at any time be entitled
in respect of the Units; (ii) all other payments, if any, due or to become due
to the undersigned in respect of the Units, under or arising out of the
agreement of limited partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership
Agreement"), or any agreement pursuant to which the Units were sold (the
"Purchase Agreement"), whether as contractual obligations, damages, insurance
proceeds, condemnation awards or otherwise; (iii) all of the undersigned's
claims, rights, powers, privileges, authority, options, security interests,
liens and remedies, if any, under or arising out of the Partnership Agreement or
Purchase Agreement or the undersigned's ownership of the Units, including,
without limitation, all voting rights, rights of first offer, first refusal or
similar rights, and rights to be substituted as a limited partner of the
Partnership; and (iv) all present and future claims, if any, of the undersigned
against the Partnership, the other partners of the Partnership, or the general
partner and its affiliates, including the Purchaser, under or arising out of the
Partnership Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, the undersigned's status as a
limited partner, or the terms or conditions of the Offer, for monies loaned or
advanced, for services rendered, for the management of the Partnership or
otherwise.
The undersigned hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Purchaser
and any designees of the Purchaser as the true and lawful agent and
attorney-in-fact of the undersigned with respect to such Units, with full power
of substitution (such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power
coupled with an interest), to vote or act in such manner as any such attorney
and proxy or substitute shall, in its sole discretion, deem proper with respect
to such Units, to do all such acts and things necessary or expedient to deliver
such Units and transfer ownership of such Units on the partnership books
maintained by the general partner of the Partnership, together with all
accompanying evidence of transfer and authenticity to, or upon the order of, the
Purchaser, to sign any and all documents necessary to authorize the transfer of
the Units to the Purchaser including, without limitation, the "Transferor's
(Seller's) Application for Transfer" created by the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc., if required, and upon receipt by the Information Agent
(as the undersigned's agent) of the Offer Price, to become a substitute limited
partner, to receive any and all distributions made by the Partnership from and
after the Expiration Date of the Offer (regardless of the record date for any
such distribution), and to receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all
rights of beneficial ownership of such Units, all in accordance with the terms
of the Offer. This appointment is effective upon the purchase of the Units by
the Purchaser as provided in the Offer and shall be irrevocable for a period of
ten years following the termination of the Offer. Upon the purchase of Units
pursuant to the Offer, all prior proxies and consents given by the undersigned
with respect to such Units will be revoked and no subsequent proxies or consents
may be given (and if given will not be deemed effective).
In addition to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
undersigned hereby irrevocably (i) requests and authorizes (subject to and
effective upon acceptance for payment of any Unit tendered hereby) the
Partnership and
3
<PAGE> 4
its general partners to take any and all actions as may be required to effect
the transfer of the undersigned's Units to the Purchaser (or its designee) and
to admit the Purchaser as a substitute limited partner in the Partnership under
the terms of the Partnership Agreement; (ii) empowers the Purchaser and its
agent to execute and deliver to each general partner a change of address form
instructing the general partner to send any and all future distributions to the
address specified in the form, and to endorse any check payable to or upon the
order of such unitholder representing a distribution to which the Purchaser is
entitled pursuant to the terms of the offer, in each case, in the name and on
behalf of the tendering unitholder; (iii) agrees not to exercise any rights
pertaining to the Units without the prior consent of the Purchaser; and (iv)
requests and consents to the transfer of the Units, to be effective on the books
and records of the Partnership as of the Offer Date.
The undersigned irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Purchaser and any
designees of the Purchaser as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact of
the undersigned with respect to such Units, with full power of substitution
(such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an
interest), to withdraw any or all of such Units that have been previously
tendered in response to any tender or exchange offer provided that the price per
unit being offered by the Purchaser is equal to or higher than the price per
unit being offered in the previous tender or exchange offer. This appointment is
effective immediately and shall continue to be effective unless and until such
Units are withdrawn from the Offer by the undersigned prior to the Expiration
Date.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION IN A PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT OR ANY PURCHASE
AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY DIRECTS EACH GENERAL PARTNER
OF THE PARTNERSHIP TO MAKE ALL DISTRIBUTIONS AFTER THE PURCHASER ACCEPTS THE
TENDERED UNITS FOR PAYMENT TO THE PURCHASER OR ITS DESIGNEE. Subject to and
effective upon acceptance for payment of any Unit tendered hereby, the
undersigned hereby requests that the Purchaser be admitted to the Partnership as
a substitute limited partner under the terms of the Partnership Agreement. Upon
request, the undersigned will execute and deliver additional documents deemed by
the Information Agent or the Purchaser to be necessary or desirable to complete
the assignment, transfer and purchase of Units tendered hereby and will hold any
distributions received from the Partnership after the Expiration Date in trust
for the benefit of the Purchaser and, if necessary, will promptly forward to the
Purchaser any such distributions immediately upon receipt. The Purchaser
reserves the right to transfer or assign, in whole or in part, from time to
time, to one or more of its affiliates, the right to purchase Units tendered
pursuant to the Offer, but any such transfer or assignment will not relieve the
Purchaser of its obligations under the Offer or prejudice the rights of
tendering unitholders to receive payment for Units validly tendered and accepted
for payment pursuant to the Offer.
By executing this Letter of Transmittal, the undersigned represents that
either (i) the undersigned is not a plan subject to Title I of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), or Section 4975 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or an entity deemed
to hold "plan assets" within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101 of any
such plan, or (ii) the tender and acceptance of Units pursuant to the Offer will
not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code.
The undersigned understands that a tender of Units to the Purchaser will
constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and the Purchaser upon
the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer. The undersigned recognizes
that under certain circumstances set forth in the Offer, the Purchaser may not
be required to accept for payment any of the Units tendered hereby. In such
event, the undersigned understands that any Letter of Transmittal for Units not
accepted for payment may be destroyed by the Purchaser (or its agent). EXCEPT AS
STATED IN THE OFFER, THIS TENDER IS IRREVOCABLE, PROVIDED THAT UNITS TENDERED
PURSUANT TO THE OFFER MAY BE WITHDRAWN AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE,
OR UNLESS ALREADY ACCEPTED FOR PAYMENT, ANY TIME AFTER 60 DAYS FROM THE OFFER
DATE.
THE UNDERSIGNED HAS BEEN ADVISED THAT THE PURCHASER IS AN AFFILIATE OF THE
GENERAL PARTNER OF THE PARTNERSHIP AND NO SUCH GENERAL PARTNER MAKES ANY
RECOMMENDATION AS TO WHETHER TO TENDER OR REFRAIN FROM TENDERING UNITS IN THE
OFFER. THE UNDERSIGNED HAS MADE HIS OR HER OWN DECISION TO TENDER UNITS.
The undersigned hereby represents and warrants for the benefit of the
Partnership and the Purchaser that the undersigned owns the Units tendered
hereby and has full power and authority and has taken all necessary action to
4
<PAGE> 5
validly tender, sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver the Units tendered
hereby and that when the same are accepted for payment by the Purchaser, the
Purchaser will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title thereto, free and
clear of all liens, restrictions, charges, encumbrances, conditional sales
agreements or other obligations relating to the sale or transfer thereof, and
such Units will not be subject to any adverse claims and that the transfer and
assignment contemplated herein are in compliance with all applicable laws and
regulations.
All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred shall survive the
death or incapacity of the undersigned, and any obligations of the undersigned
shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, trustees in
bankruptcy, legal representatives, and successors and assigns of the
undersigned.
The undersigned further represents and warrants that, to the extent a
certificate evidencing the Units tendered hereby (the "original certificate") is
not delivered by the undersigned together with this Letter of Transmittal, (i)
the undersigned represents and warrants to the Purchaser that the undersigned
has not sold, transferred, conveyed, assigned, pledged, deposited or otherwise
disposed of any portion of the Units, (ii) the undersigned has caused a diligent
search of its records to be taken and has been unable to locate the original
certificate, (iii) if the undersigned shall find or recover the original
certificate evidencing the Units, the undersigned will immediately and without
consideration surrender it to the Purchaser; and (iv) the undersigned shall at
all times indemnify, defend, and save harmless the Purchaser and the
Partnership, its successors, and its assigns from and against any and all
claims, actions, and suits whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against
any and all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs, charges, counsel
fees, and other expenses of every nature and character by reason of honoring or
refusing to honor the original certificate when presented by or on behalf of a
holder in due course of a holder appearing to or believed by the partnership to
be such, or by issuance or delivery of a replacement certificate, or the making
of any payment, delivery, or credit in respect of the original certificate
without surrender thereof, or in respect of the replacement certificate.

5. TAX CERTIFICATIONS. The unitholder(s) tendering Units to the Purchaser
pursuant to the Offer must furnish the Purchaser with the unitholder(s)'
taxpayer identification number ("TIN") and certify as true, under penalties
of perjury, the representations in Box A, Box B and, if applicable, Box C.
By signing the Signature Box, the unitholder(s) certifies that the TIN as
printed (or corrected) on this Letter of Transmittal in the box entitled
"Description of Units Tendered" and the representations made in Box A, Box
B and, if applicable, Box C, are correct. See attached Guidelines for
Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute Form W-9 for
guidance in determining the proper TIN to give the Purchaser.
U.S. PERSONS. A unitholder that is a U.S. citizen or a resident alien
individual, a domestic corporation, a domestic partnership, a domestic
trust or a domestic estate (collectively, "U.S. Persons"), as those terms
are defined in the Code, should follow the instructions below with respect
to certifying Box A and Box B.
BOX A - SUBSTITUTE FORM W-9.
Part (i), Taxpayer Identification Number -- Tendering unitholders must
certify to the Purchaser that the TIN as printed (or corrected) on this
Letter of Transmittal in the box entitled "Description of Units Tendered"
is correct. If a correct TIN is not provided, penalties may be imposed by
the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), in addition to the unitholder
being subject to backup withholding.
Part (ii), Backup Withholding -- In order to avoid 31% Federal income tax
backup withholding, the tendering unitholder must certify, under penalty of
perjury, that such unitholder is not subject to backup withholding. Certain
unitholders (including, among others, all corporations and certain exempt
non-profit organizations) are not subject to backup withholding. Backup
withholding is not an additional tax. If withholding results in an
overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained from the IRS. DO NOT CHECK
THE BOX IN BOX A, PART (II), UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED BY THE IRS THAT
YOU ARE SUBJECT TO BACKUP WITHHOLDING.
When determining the TIN to be furnished, please refer to the following as
a guide:
Individual accounts - should reflect owner's TIN.
Joint accounts - should reflect the TIN of the owner whose name appears
first.
Trust accounts - should reflect the TIN assigned to the trust.
IRA custodial accounts - should reflect the TIN of the custodian (not
necessary to provide).
9
<PAGE> 10
Custodial accounts for the benefit of minors - should reflect the TIN of
the minor.
Corporations, partnership or other business entities - should reflect the
TIN assigned to that entity.
By signing the Signature Box, the unitholder(s) certifies that the TIN as
printed (or corrected) on the front of the Letter of Transmittal is
correct.
BOX B - FIRPTA AFFIDAVIT -- Section 1445 of the Code requires that each
unitholder transferring interests in a partnership with real estate assets
meeting certain criteria certify under penalty of perjury the
representations made in Box B, or be subject to withholding of tax equal to
10% of the purchase price for interests purchased. Tax withheld under
Section 1445 of the Code is not an additional tax. If withholding results
in an overpayment of tax, a refund may be obtained from the IRS. PART (i)
SHOULD BE CHECKED ONLY IF THE TENDERING UNITHOLDER IS NOT A U.S. PERSON, AS
DESCRIBED THEREIN.
BOX C - FOREIGN PERSONS -- In order for a tendering unitholder who is a
Foreign Person (i.e., not a U.S. Person, as defined above) to qualify as
exempt from 31% backup withholding, such foreign Unitholder must certify,
under penalties of perjury, the statement in Box C of this Letter of
Transmittal, attesting to that Foreign Person's status by checking the box
preceding such statement. UNLESS THE BOX IS CHECKED, SUCH UNITHOLDER WILL
BE SUBJECT TO 31% WITHHOLDING OF TAX.
6. VALIDITY OF LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL. All questions as to the validity, form,
eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of a Letter of
Transmittal and other required documents will be determined by the
Purchaser and such determination will be final and binding. The Purchaser's
interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer (including these
Instructions for this Letter of Transmittal) will be final and binding. The
Purchaser will have the right to waive any irregularities or conditions as
to the manner of tendering. Any irregularities in connection with tenders,
unless waived, must be cured within such time as the Purchaser shall
determine. This Letter of Transmittal will not be valid until any
irregularities have been cured or waived. Neither the Purchaser nor the
Information Agent are under any duty to give notification of defects in a
Letter of Transmittal and will incur no liability for failure to give such
notification.
7. ASSIGNEE STATUS. Assignees must provide documentation to the Information
Agent which demonstrates, to the satisfaction of the Purchaser, such
person's status as an assignee.

(continued from cover page)
o Although your partnership's agreement of limited partnership provides
for termination in the year 2035, the prospectus pursuant to which the
units were sold in 1984 indicated that the properties owned by your
partnership might be sold within 5 to 8 years of their acquisition if
conditions permitted.
o Your general partner and the property manager of the residential
properties are subsidiaries of ours and, therefore, the general
partner has substantial conflicts of interest with respect to our
offer.
o We are making this offer with a view to making a profit and,
therefore, there is a conflict between our desire to purchase your
units at a low price and your desire to sell your units at a high
price.
o Continuation of your partnership will result in our affiliates
continuing to receive management fees from your partnership. Such fees
would not be payable if your partnership was liquidated.
o It is possible that we may conduct a subsequent offer at a higher
price.
o For any units that we acquire from you, you will not receive any
future distributions from operating cash flow of your partnership or
upon a sale or refinancing of property owned by your partnership.
o If we acquire a substantial number of units, we will increase out
ability to influence voting decisions with respect to your partnership
and may control such voting decisions, including but not limited to
the removal of the general partner, most amendments to the partnership
agreement and the sale of all or substantially all of your
partnership's assets.
INTRODUCTION
We are offering to purchase all units, of the outstanding units of
limited partnership interest in your partnership, for the purchase price of $700
per unit, net to the seller in cash, without interest, less the amount of
distributions, if any, made by your partnership in respect of any unit from
August 19, 1999 until the expiration date. Our offer is made upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated August 19,
1999, this Supplement and in the letter of transmittal.
We have also extended the expiration date of our offer to 12:00
midnight, New York City time, on September 20, 1999, unless further extended. If
you desire to accept our offer, you must complete and sign the letter of
transmittal in accordance with the instructions contained therein and forward or
hand deliver it, together with any other required documents, to the Information
Agent. You may withdraw your tender of units pursuant to the offer at any time
prior to the expiration date of our offer and, if we have not accepted such
units for payment, on or after October 19, 1999.
On August 2, 1999, Everest Investors 12, LLC, commenced a tender offer
to purchase a maximum of 1,699 of the outstanding units at a purchase price of
$554 per unit. On September 2, 1999, ERP Operating Limited Partnership commenced
a tender offer to purchase 21,912 of the outstanding
2
<PAGE> 3
units at a purchase price of $650 per unit. IF YOU TENDERED YOUR UNITS IN ERP
OPERATING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP'S OFFER, YOU MAY STILL TENDER YOUR UNITS TO US BY
COMPLETING THE ENCLOSED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (OR IF YOU HAVE ALREADY SENT IN A
LETTER TRANSMITTAL FOR OUR OFFER, BY COMPLETING A NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL. ANY SUCH
NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL MUST BE DELIVERED TO THE DEPOSITARY FOR ERP OPERATING
LIMITED PARTNERSHIP'S OFFER (WITH A COPY TO OUR INFORMATION AGENT) BY OCTOBER 7,
1999, THE EXPIRATION DATE OF SUCH OFFER. A FORM OF NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL IS
ENCLOSED. ) THE WITHDRAWAL PERIOD FOR THE EVEREST INVESTORS 12, LLC OFFER HAS
EXPIRED.
Our Offer to Purchase is further supplemented and amended as follows:
1. We hereby waive condition (i) under "The Offer - Section 17.
Conditions of the Offer," which required that a minimum of 35% of the units be
tendered. Accordingly, the offer is no longer conditioned upon any minimum
number of units being tendered. However, certain other conditions do apply. See
"The Offer - Section 17. Conditions of the Offer," in the Offer to Purchase.
Under no circumstances will we be required to accept any unit if the transfer of
that unit to us would be prohibited by the agreement of limited partnership of
your partnership.
2. If you tender your units in response to our offer, we will pay any
transfer fees imposed for the transfer of units by your partnership. We will
also pay any fees or commissions imposed by your broker in assisting you to
tender your units, or by any custodian or other trustee of any Individual
Retirement Account or benefit plan which is the owner of record of your units.
However, you will have to pay any governmental transfer taxes that apply to your
sale (see Instruction 8 in the letter of transmittal).
3. The fourth paragraph under "The Offer-Section 1: Terms of the Offer;
Expiration Date; Proration" is hereby replaced in its entirety by inserting the
following in lieu of thereof:
If units are validly tendered prior to the expiration date and not
properly withdrawn prior to the expiration date in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Section 4 and the purchase of all such units would
result in there being less than 320 unitholders, we will purchase only 99% of
the total number of units so tendered by each limited partner. In such case, you
would continue to be a limited partner and receive a K-1 for tax reporting
purposes.
4. In late August 1999, we agreed, with an unaffiliated third party, to
explore the formation of a joint venture with respect to interests in certain
properties located in the State of New Jersey. A joint venture operating
agreement was signed but was not delivered and is being held in escrow subject
to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, without limitation, mutual
due diligence, agreement with respect to the value of interests to be
contributed to the venture, negotiation and execution of mutually acceptable
definitive documentation for the venture, and their receipt of any and all
necessary consents to he venture. No party has any obligation to consummate the
venture and each may elect for any reasons or no reason not to proved with the
venture. If, however, all parties determine to proceed, and if the other closing
conditions are satisfied, it is expected the joint venture agreement would be
released from escrow and become effective on September 15, 1999. The tentative
agreement contemplates the formation of a new limited liability company in which
(i) our venture partners would
3
<PAGE> 4
contribute its indirect beneficial interests in two apartment complexes located
in New Jersey, and (ii) we would contribute our indirect beneficial interest in
certain apartments complexes also located in New Jersey, including Hunter Glen
Apartments Phases IV, V and VI. Hunter Glen Apartments Phases IV, V and VI are
currently owned by your partnership and would continue to be owned by your
partnership even if the New Jersey joint venture were ultimately consummated, as
only our indirect interests in the properties (and not the interests of limited
partners) would be contributed to the venture.

that our offer is at the highest price of any of the three offers. If you wish
to sell your units for cash, you should do so at the highest price. LIMITED
PARTNERS ARE URGED TO READ OUR OFFER TO PURCHASE, THE SUPPLEMENT THERETO AND
THE RELATED MATERIALS AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9 CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY

DENVER, COLORADO, September 3, 1999-AIMCO Properties, L.P. today announced that
it has increased its offer price to purchase the units of limited partnership
interest in Angeles Partners XII to $700, net to the seller in cash, resulting
in the HIGHEST price being offered by anyone. AIMCO indicated that if it is
liquidity that a limited partner desires, its offer provides the limited
partner with the greatest purchase price currently being offered. Limited
Partners who have already tendered their units to AIMCO will automatically
receive the benefit of the increased purchase price and need not take any
further action.
AIMCO has also extended its offer so that it now expires at 12:00
midnight, New York City time on September 20, 1999 (unless further extended).
Therefore, a limited partner will still be able to receive AIMCO's higher price
EARLIER than ERP Operating Limited Partnership is permitted to buy under its

AIMCO further announced that its offer provides a limited partner
with the opportunity to sell its units without the commission costs (generally,
up to 10% of the sales price, subject to a $150- $200 minimum commission per
trade) paid by the seller in typical secondary market sales. With secondary
market matching services, the process to sell units will not even begin until

Kushner LP Units in accordance with this paragraph (e), neither Member shall be
obligated to agree to the contribution of such Kushner LP Units acquired during

as such regulation may be amended from time to time. To the extent not
inconsistent with the applicable Treasury Regulations, the following shall
apply:
(a) The Capital Account of each Member shall be credited with (1)
an amount equal to such Member's cash contributions and the fair market value of
property contributed to the Company by such Member (net of liabilities secured
by such contributed property or, without duplication, liabilities that the
Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the
Code) and (2) such Member's share of the Company's Net Profits (or items
thereof). The Capital Account of each Member shall be debited by (i) the amount

property which the Member is considered to assume or take subject to under
Section 752 of the Code) and (ii) such Member's share of the Company's Net
Losses (or items thereof).

entity.

the Company which is not sold in connection with such event shall be valued at
its then fair market value. Such fair market value shall be used to determine
the Net Profit or Net Loss which would have been recognized by the Company if

the Members shall be adjusted to reflect the deemed allocation of such
hypothetical Net Profit or Net Loss under Article VI.

statement or representation of any one Authorized Representative of a Member
shall be sufficient to bind such Member with respect to all matters pertaining
to the Company.
Section 5.3 Management and Leasing Agreements; Submanagement
Agreements.
(a) On or after Completion, as applicable, (i) the Members on
behalf of the Company and/or any Subsidiary shall execute, or cause the

Leasing Agreement and any applicable Approved Budget, Kushner shall act as the
leasing agent and be responsible for supervising and implementing the property
management activities and the day-to-day management of all of the properties
owned directly or indirectly by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Kushner shall not, and shall not permit any Affiliate property manager to, take
any action adding services to be provided at any property without the prior
written consent of AIMCO and the Submanagement Agreements and the Management
and Leasing Agreement shall so provide, it being understood and agreed that any
such action could adversely impact the status of the AIMCO REIT Entity.
(b) In connection with the Submanagement Agreements and the
transition
17
<PAGE> 18
of management of the AIMCO Properties from AIMCO to Kushner, it is anticipated
that all or certain of the current on site personnel at the AIMCO Properties
will be hired by Kushner (or its Affiliate). In the event that the employment
of any such personnel is not continued by Kushner (or its Affiliate) then any
costs or expenses relating to termination shall be Company expenses.
(c) The manager under the Submanagement Agreements and the
Management and Leasing Agreement shall (i) engage the Property Accountants with
respect to the provision of accounting services at each of the AIMCO Properties
and Kushner Properties, as applicable and (ii) pursuant to such engagement,

Section 5.4 No Exclusive Duty to Company except for Ravens Crest. (a)
Except as provided in Section 5.4(b), there shall be no restriction against the
acquisition or ownership by any Member or any of its Affiliates of any asset or
investment, regardless of whether the same is competitive with any of the
Kushner Properties, AIMCO Properties or any other investment property owned,
directly or indirectly, by the Company or any Subsidiary. Neither Member nor
any of its respective Affiliates shall be required to manage the Company as its
sole and exclusive function. Except as provided in Section 5.4(b), neither the
Company, any Member nor any of their Affiliates shall have any right, by virtue
of this Agreement or otherwise, to invest or participate in any asset,
investment or activity of any other Member or any of its Affiliates, or to the
income or proceeds derived therefrom.
(b) No Member or any of its Affiliates may, directly or indirectly,
purchase the Ravens Crest Property unless the Member that, or whose Affiliate,
is contemplating such purchase first gives the Company the opportunity to
purchase such property on the same terms (including price) as are then
available to such Member or its Affiliate. Any such right of first offer shall
be exercised on behalf of the Company by the Member that, or whose Affiliate,
is not contemplating such purchase and be forwarded within thirty (30) days.
Failure to respond shall be deemed a notice to decline to purchase such
property. Any statement of the Company of its intention to purchase or decline
to purchase such property shall be in writing. In the event the Company
declines to purchase such property on such terms, the applicable Member (or its
Affiliate) shall have a period of six months following the date of the Company's
declination to purchase such property on terms no more materially favorable to
the purchaser than those originally presented to the Company, whose right of
first offer hereunder shall be reinstated in the event that the terms of the
applicable purchase are materially altered or in the event that a closing on
the original terms fails to take place within such period.
Section 5.5 Indemnity. The Company (but not the Members) shall
indemnify and hold harmless each of the Members and each of their Affiliates,

expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and costs),
18
<PAGE> 19
liabilities, judgments or causes of action (collectively, "LOSSES") which it or
they may sustain, incur or be threatened with by reason of any acts performed
or omitted by them for or on behalf of the Company, except for Losses caused by
(i) an Indemnitee acting in a manner which constitutes gross negligence or
willful misconduct, or (ii) a default of the Member's performance of its
obligations hereunder, provided, however, no Member shall have personal
liability for such indemnity unless the Losses derive out of the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Member, and so long as such Losses are
not so incurred, the Indemnitee's sole recourse under this Section 5.5 shall be
to the Company and its assets and not to any Member or the assets of any
Member; provided, further, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply with
respect to the actions of Kushner or its Affiliates pursuant to the
Submanagement Agreements and the Management and Leasing Agreements.
Section 5.6 Reliance on Authority of Members. Any Person dealing with
the Company may rely on the authority of the Members, acting jointly only, to
act on behalf of, and bind, the Company without inquiry into the provisions of
this Agreement or compliance herewith, regardless of whether the action taken
is in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
Section 5.7 Affiliate Transactions. Except for the AIMCO Management

any Subsidiary to engage the services of any Member or any Affiliate of any
Member without the Approval of the Members.

Approval of any matter for which such Approval is required pursuant to this
Agreement shall be oral or shall be in writing and delivered by the requesting
Member to each of the Authorized Representatives of the other Member. Upon
demand from the other Member, such Member shall provide the demanding Member
with a summary and analysis of the matters for which such Approval is requested
and the requesting Member's recommendations with respect to such matters.

Approve or not Approve such matter by notice to the other Member given within
ten (10) Business Days following delivery of such notice. Except as expressly
set forth to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, unless a Member does not
Approve such matter within such ten (10) Business Day period, such Member shall
be deemed not to have Approved such matter. An Approval of an action or
decision shall be effective if given orally; provided, however, Approvals with
respect to the following matters (if such Approvals are otherwise required
therefor under this Agreement) shall be given in writing in order to be
effective: (1) any borrowing by the Company or a Subsidiary, (2) the sale,
exchange or other disposition of any of the Property for which such Approval is

other provision of this Agreement:
(i) the Company shall conduct its operations (including, without
limitation, the operations of the Properties and the operations of any assets
acquired after the date of this Agreement) in a manner, such that (x) all of
the Company's income is of a class described in Section 856(c)(2) of the Code

ARTICLE VI
ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Section 6.1 Allocation of Net Profits and Net Losses.
(a) Net Profits. Net Profits for each Fiscal Year shall be
allocated among the Members as follows:
(i) First, an amount of Net Profits up to the excess of (x)
all Net Losses previously allocated to the Members pursuant to Section 6.1(b)
hereof over (y) all Net Profits previously allocated to the Members pursuant to
this Section 6.1(a)(i) shall be allocated to each Member in proportion to its
share of such excess of (x) over (y); and
(ii) Thereafter, to the Members in proportion to their
respective Percentage Interests
Any credit available for income tax purposes shall be allocated among the
Members in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(ii).
(b) Net Losses. Net Losses of the Company shall be allocated among
the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.
20
<PAGE> 21
(c) Special Rules Regarding Allocations. Notwithstanding the
preceding provisions of this Article VI:
(i) At no time shall any allocation of Net Loss be made to a
Member if such allocation would cause the deficit in the Member's Capital
Account balance, if any, to exceed its allocable share of "partnership minimum
gain" or "minimum gain attributable to partner nonrecourse debt" (as defined in
Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and (i)(5), respectively), and any
Net Losses not allocated to a Member by reason of this clause (ii) shall be
allocated to each other Member whose deficit, if any, in the Capital Account of
such Member would not exceed its allocable share of such minimum gain by reason
of such allocation.
(ii) If there is a net decrease in "partnership minimum gain"
(within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(2)) for a
Company taxable year and, at the end of such taxable year, the deficit, if any,
in a Member's Capital Account balance exceeds its allocable share of such
minimum gain, gross income of the Company shall be allocated to such Member in
an amount equal to such excess so as to satisfy the requirements of Treasury
Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) (minimum gain chargeback).
(iii) If, during any taxable year, there is a net decrease in
"partnership minimum gain attributable to partner nonrecourse debt" within the
meaning of the Treasury Regulations, then, before any other allocations are
made for such year other than those pursuant to clause (iii) above, each Member
with a share of such partnership minimum gain at the beginning of the year
shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if
necessary, for subsequent years) in an amount equal to each such Member's share
of the net decrease in such partnership minimum gain as determined in
accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) in a manner so as to
satisfy the requirements of said Treasury Regulation.
(iv) If during any taxable year a Member unexpectedly
receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in paragraph (4),
(5) or (6) of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), and if such
adjustment, allocation or distribution would cause at the end of the taxable
year a deficit balance in such Member's Capital Account in excess of its
allocable share of partnership minimum gain as described above, then such Member
shall be allocated items of income and gain for such taxable year (and, if
necessary, subsequent taxable years) in an amount and in a manner sufficient to
eliminate such excess balance as quickly as possible before any other
allocation is made for such year, other than pursuant to clause (iii) and (iv)
above, so as to satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) (qualified income offset).
(v) In the event any Member has a deficit balance in its
Capital Account at the end of the Fiscal Year which is in excess of the amount
such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate
sentences of Treasury Regulations
21
<PAGE> 22
Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each Member shall be specially
allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as
quickly as possible.
(d) The allocations contained in Sections 6.1(e)(i) through
6.1(e)(v) (the "REGULATORY ALLOCATIONS") are intended to comply with certain
requirements of the Code and Treasury Regulations. The Members intend that, to
the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either by other
Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company
income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 6.1(e)(vi).
Therefore, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article 6 (other than
the Regulatory Allocations), the Members shall make such offsetting special
allocations of Company income, gain, loss or deduction in whatever manner they
reasonably determine to be appropriate so that, after such offsetting
allocations are made, each Member's Capital Account balance is, to the extent
possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if
the Regulatory Allocations were not part of this Agreement.
Section 6.2 Allocations for Income Tax Purposes. The income, gains,
losses, deductions and credits of the Company for United States federal, state
and local income tax purposes shall be allocated in the same manner as the
corresponding items (including all items entering into the computation of Net
Profits and Net Losses) were allocated pursuant to Section 6.1 above; provided,
that solely for United States federal, state and local income and state
franchise tax purposes and not for book or Capital Account purposes, income,
gain, loss and deduction with respect to property properly carried on the
Company's books at a value other than its tax basis shall be allocated in
accordance with the requirements of Code Section 704(c) and Treasury Regulation
Section 1.704-3.
Section 6.3 Distributions of Net Cash Flow and Net Proceeds. Net Cash
Flow shall be distributed by the Members at such times as they elect, but not
less often than quarterly, and Net Proceeds shall be distributed by the Members
as soon as practicable after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the Net
Proceeds to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.
Section 6.4 Withheld Distributions. In the event the Company is
required to deduct and withhold, pursuant to the Code or any other United
States federal, state or local law, rule or regulation which is currently in
effect or which may be promulgated hereafter ("APPLICABLE LAW"), any amount
from an actual distribution to a Member, the amount so deducted and withheld
from such distribution shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be treated as
a distribution to such Member of the same type as the distribution giving rise
to the obligation. In the event Applicable Law requires the Company to pay or
withhold any amount on behalf of a Member (including any United States federal,
state or local taxes) measured by a Member's distributive share of the Company's
Net Profits, Gain on Sale or any other Company item, other than any amount
required to be deducted and withheld from actual distributions to a Member,
then the payment or withholding of any such amount shall be considered a loan
("TAX LOAN") by the Company to such Member (the "BORROWING MEMBER"), The
Borrowing Member shall
22
<PAGE> 23
repay any such Tax Loan within thirty (30) days after the Members (or if the
Members fail to do so, any Member) deliver a written demand therefor, together
with interest at an annual rate equal to two percent (2%) per annum in excess
of the rate announced from time to time in the Wall Street Journal as the
"prime rate" from the date such loan was made until the date of the repayment
thereof. In addition to any other rights of the Company to enforce its
entitlement to receive payment of the Tax Loan, plus any accrued interest
thereon, the Company may deduct from any distribution to be made to a Borrowing
Member an amount not greater than the outstanding balance of any Tax Loan, plus
any accrued interest thereon, as a payment in total or partial satisfaction
thereof.
ARTICLE VII
TRANSFERABILITY
Section 7.1 Restrictions on Transferability. Except as permitted in
Section 7.2, no Member shall be permitted to transfer, assign, sell, pledge,
mortgage, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of (individually, a "TRANSFER" and
collectively, "TRANSFERS") all or any portion of its Interest, without the
prior written Approval of the Members and, in the case of a Transfer of an
Interest or any portion thereof, Section 7.3 has been satisfied. Any such
purported Transfer without the prior written Approval of the Members and with
respect to which Section 7.3 has not been satisfied, shall be void and shall
not bind the Company.
Section 7.2 Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding anything contained in
Section 7.1 to the contrary, the following Transfer shall be permitted upon
compliance with, to the extent applicable, the provisions of Section 7.4:
Transfers by Members to one or more Affiliates; provided, however, that for
purposes of this Section 7.2, the definition of "Affiliate" shall be modified
such that for purposes of such definition, "control" means the ownership,
directly or indirectly, of 75% or more of the beneficial or voting interest in
any Person.
Section 7.3 Notice of Upper Tier Transfers. Each Member shall notify
the other in writing within thirty (30) days of any Transfer of any interest in
any Person which, directly or indirectly, holds any Interest in any Member;
provided, however, that no such notice need be given if
(i) in the case of AIMCO, the filing of a Form 8-K is not
required with respect to such Transfer; or
(ii) in the case of Kushner, such Transfer is between or
among the legal or beneficial owners of Kushner, and their family
members and trusts established for their benefit.
Section 7.4 Assumption Agreement. No Transfer of an Interest, or any
portion thereof, shall be effective against the Company unless and until the
Members are in receipt of
23
<PAGE> 24
an assignment and assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Members, whereby the assignee agrees to assume all of the
obligations of the assignor hereunder, and to be bound by all of the terms and
conditions hereof from and after the effective date of such assignment. No such
assignment shall relieve the assignor from any obligations arising prior to the
effective date of the assignment.
ARTICLE VIII

as a transferee of a Member's Interest or any portion thereof.
Section 8.2 Allocations to New Members. In the event of any Transfer
of a Member's Interest (or any portion thereof), or if a Member's Percentage
Interest is adjusted or otherwise changes for any reason, during any fiscal
year, then the allocations of income, gain, loss and deductions, for United
States federal income tax purposes, and distributions, shall be adjusted as
necessary to reflect the varying interests of the Members during such year in
accordance with Code Section 706(d) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated
thereunder using an interim closing of the books method as of the date of such
Transfer, adjustment or change, or such other method as is reasonably Approved
by the Members.

Interests (other than cash or cash equivalent), including, without limitation,
any property contributed by Kushner to the Company after the date hereof, shall
be distributed to Kushner, (iii) AIMCO and Kushner each shall have the right,
acting alone and with full authority to bind the Company with respect thereto,
to evidence such distributions by written instruments, and (iv) AIMCO and
Kushner shall cooperate in good faith to effect the provisions of Section 9.3;
and (b) the Submanagement Agreements shall terminate no later than sixty (60)
days thereafter and the Members shall cooperate and shall cause their
Affiliates to cooperate in effecting a prompt and orderly transition of the
management of the Angeles Properties.
Section 9.3 Valuation and Tune-Up. (a) Upon delivery by any Member of
a Dissolution Election Notice, all assets distributed pursuant to Section
9.2(a) (collectively, the "DISTRIBUTED PROPERTY", the portion of the
Distributed Property distributed to AIMCO, the "AIMCO DISTRIBUTED PROPERTY",
the portion of the Distributed Property distributed to Kushner, the "KUSHNER
DISTRIBUTED PROPERTY", and all assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries that
are not included in the definition of Distributed Property, collectively, the
"BUY-SELL PROPERTY") shall be valued, on an asset-by-asset basis as follows:
(A) as agreed unanimously by the Members, (b) in the event that the Members are
not able to reach agreement on any such valuation within thirty (30) days
following delivery of the Dissolution Election Notice, then (i) each Member
shall, within fifteen (15) business days thereafter, choose an appraiser to
determine the value of that portion of the Distributed Property not assigned a
valuation under clause (A), (ii) on an asset-by-asset basis, in the event that
the higher of the two appraisals is not more than two percent (2%) higher than
the lower of the two, the valuation shall be the average of the two appraisals,
and (iii) on an asset-by-asset basis, in the event that the higher of the two
appraisals is more than two percent (2%) higher than the lower of the two
appraisal, the two appraisers shall jointly choose a third appraiser, whose
determination of value shall be conclusive, which third appraiser (if not
chosen within ten (10) business days, shall be selected by the American
Arbitration Association) shall make its determination by selection of the
valuation, on an asset-by-asset basis, submitted by either one of the first two
appraisers. If either Member fails to choose its appraiser within such fifteen
(15) day period, then such defaulting Member shall be deemed to have chosen the
non-defaulting Member's appraiser.
(b) Notwithstanding, anything to the contrary in Section 9.3(a),
the AIMCO Management Agreement shall be deemed to have the following value: the
annualized gross revenues of the Angeles Properties based upon the immediately
preceding three (3) month period, multiplied by five percent (5%) less $200.00
per unit then managed pursuant to such agreement as of the date of
determination divided by ten percent (10%).
25
<PAGE> 26
(c) The positive difference between the value of the AIMCO Distributed
Property and the Kushner Distributed Property, determined in accordance
herewith, is referred to herein as the "TRUE-UP BASIS." The Member whose portion
of the Distributed Property is assigned the higher value in accordance with
Section 9.3(a) shall, promptly (but in no event later than ninety (90) days)
upon the completion of the valuation procedure of such Section, pay to the other
Member an amount equal to the True-Up Basis multiplied by such other Member's
Percentage Interest, which amount may be paid at such Member's election, in
cash, non-cash assets acceptable to the Member entitled to receive them
(including, without limitation, limited partnership units issued by AIMCO
Properties, L.P. if AIMCO Properties L.P. so elects and if acceptable to
Kushner) or any combination of the foregoing; provided, that the Members will
cooperate in good faith to minimize the amount of any tax which may be payable
in connection with any payment made pursuant to this Section 9.3(c). If payment
shall not be timely made, then interest shall accrue at the per annum rate of
five hundred (500) basis points above the then-applicable prime rate announced
in the Wall Street Journal. In the event litigation is commenced to collect such
payment, the prevailing party additionally shall be entitled to payment of its
attorneys' fees and disbursements.
Section 9.4 Buy-Sell. (a) The Initiating Member shall have set forth in the
Dissolution Election Notice the all-cash price for the Buy-Sell Property which
the Initiating Member would be willing to pay (the "INTEREST PRICE") and shall
concurrently therewith deliver into escrow a deposit equal to five (5%) percent
of the aggregate Interest Price for all such Buy-Sell Properties. Not later than
thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Dissolution Election Notice (the
"THIRTY-DAY PERIOD"), the Other Member shall elect, with respect to each
Buy-Sell Property, either (i) to purchase the Initiating Member's indirect
interest in such Buy-Sell Property at an amount equal to the product of (A) the
Interest Price and (B) Initiating Member's Percentage Interest in the Company or
(ii) to sell its interest in such Buy-Sell Property to the Initiating Member at
an amount equal to the product of (A) the Interest Price and (B) Other Member's
Percentage Interest in the Company (as applicable, the "PURCHASE PRICE").
Failure either to deliver written notice of such election within the Thirty-Day
Period or, if an election to purchase has been made, to deliver the deposit
required hereinbelow, shall constitute an irrevocable election by the Other
Member to sell its interest in each Buy-Sell Property to the Initiating Member
at the Purchase Price. With respect to any Buy-Sell Property for which the Other
Member shall elect to be a purchaser, the Other Member or its designee(s) shall
make a deposit, concurrently with delivery of its election, equal to five
percent (5%) of the applicable Purchase Price, and the Initiating Member's
original five percent (5%) deposit shall be returned within three (3) days to
the Initiating Member. Any deposit shall be made by cash, wire transfer, or by
official check or letter of credit, in either case issued by a clearinghouse
bank and shall be held in an interest-bearing escrow account in a bank or trust
company with the Company's counsel, as escrow agent pursuant to customary escrow
provisions. All interest earned on any deposit shall be paid to the Purchasing
Member (as defined below), subject to the provisions of Section 9.4(b)(ii).
Upon the date that the election(s) to buy or sell by the Other Member shall have
been made (or deemed made) and the required deposit shall have been delivered
the "CONTRACT DATE"), the Members shall be deemed to have entered into a binding
26
<PAGE> 27
agreement for the purchase by the purchasing Member (the "Purchasing Member")
and sale by the selling Member (the "Selling Member") of the Selling Member's
interest in such Buy-Sell Property. The closing shall be held ninety (90) days
after the Contract Date (or sooner as determined by the Purchasing Member);
provided, however, that the Purchasing Member may extend the closing for an
additional sixty (60) day period by delivery of an additional five percent (5%)
deposit into escrow no later than eighty-five (85) days after the Contract Date.
Time shall be of the essence with respect to the obligations hereunder of the
Members. At the closing, the Selling Member shall execute such instruments and
documents (on its own behalf or in its capacity as a Member of the Company) in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchasing Member as may be
necessary or appropriate to transfer the entire interest of the Selling Member
in the Buy-Sell Property to the Purchasing Member (or its designee), subject to
all existing liens, claims or encumbrances, against receipt by the Selling
Member, in cash, wire transfer or official check, of the applicable Purchase
Price and the Company shall distribute the Buy-Sell Property to the Purchasing
Member. The Members shall split customary transaction costs of buyers and
sellers involved in the Buy-Sell Procedure in accordance with their respective
Percentage Interests in the Company.
(b) (i) If on the closing date established under Section 9.4(a) above,
the Purchasing Member shall tender the Purchase Price but the Selling Member
shall fail or refuse to transfer its interest (on its own behalf or on behalf of
the Company) as required under Section 9.4(a) above, then the Purchasing Member
shall have any and all rights and remedies at law or in equity, including an
action for specific performance, and/or (ii) the Purchasing Member, by delivery
of, or by causing to be delivered, the applicable Purchase Price shall be deemed
to have completed the acquisition of the interest in the Buy-Sell Property of
the Selling Member. All expenses incurred by the Purchasing Member in connection
with the proposed purchase by reason of the default of the Selling Member shall
be offset against the Purchase Price payable by the Purchasing Member pursuant
to Section 9.4(a).
(ii) (A) IF ON THE CLOSING DATE ESTABLISHED UNDER SECTION
9.4(a) ABOVE, THE SELLING MEMBER SHALL TENDER THE DOCUMENTS REQUIRED
UNDER SECTION 9.4(a) ABOVE BUT THE PURCHASING MEMBER SHALL FAIL OR
REFUSE TO TENDER THE PURCHASE PRICE, THEN THE SELLING MEMBER SHALL BE
ENTITLED TO RECEIVE AND RETAIN THE DEPOSIT AND ANY ADDITIONAL DEPOSIT,
TOGETHER WITH ANY INTEREST EARNED THEREON, AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES (IT
BEING AGREED THAT THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF DAMAGES WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO
ASCERTAIN AND THAT SUCH AMOUNT IS A FAIR ESTIMATE OF THE ACTUAL
DAMAGES).
(B) In addition, at the election of the Selling Member,
the Purchasing Member shall be deemed to have elected, on the date of
its failure to close as required hereunder, to sell its interest in the
Buy-Sell Property to the Selling Member at a price equal to ninety-five
percent (95%) of the Purchase Price that would otherwise
27
<PAGE> 28
be applicable in a sale by the Purchasing Member of such interest, and
in the event of such election by the Selling Member, (a) the Selling
Member shall make its election, by written notice, within thirty (30)
days after such default if it wants to purchase the interest of the
Purchasing Member in the Buy-Sell Property, and the closing of such
purchase shall occur within thirty (30) days thereafter (or sooner, at
the Selling Members option) and (b) all expenses incurred by the Selling
Member in connection with the proposed purchase by reason of the default
of the Purchasing Member shall be offset against the Purchase Price
payable by the Selling Member in acquiring the defaulting Purchasing
Member's interest in the Buy-Sell Property.
(c) The procedures described in this Section 9.4 are referred to
herein as (the "Buy-Sell Procedure").
