EASTRIDGE MALL
CASPER, WYOMING
-------------------------
ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS. On June 30, 1995, Carlyle Real Estate Limited
Partnership - XV ("the Partnership") sold its 90% general partnership interest
in East Ridge Development Company, Ltd., ("East Ridge") a Maryland limited
partnership, which owns the land, building and related improvements of the
Eastridge Mall ("the Property"), located in Casper, Wyoming. The purchaser,
Price Development Company, Limited Partnership, is the Partnership's joint
venture partner in East Ridge and is not affiliated with the Partnership or
its General Partners, and the sale price was determined by arm's-length
negotiations. The Property is a 557,000 square foot enclosed shopping center
in which East Ridge owns 477,000 square feet of mall space. Target department
store (80,000 square feet) owns its own store. The Property owned by East
Ridge was approximately 91% occupied at the time of sale.
The purchaser paid $24,075,000 (before prorations) at closing, of which
$23,403,994 was used to retire the mortgage note secured by the Property and
the balance representing the deemed sale price of the Partnership's interest
in East Ridge. The Partnership received net proceeds (after prorations and
retirement of debt) of $1,025,448 on June 30, 1995.
The Partnership Agreement provides that the Limited Partners shall
receive 99% of the proceeds (net after expenses and retained working capital)
from the sale or refinancing of real property investments by the Partnership
until the Limited Partners (i) have received cash distributions of sale or
refinancing proceeds in an amount equal to the Limited Partners' aggregate
initial capital investment in the Partnership, and (ii) have received
cumulative cash distributions from the Partnership's operations which, when
combined with sale or refinancing proceeds previously distributed, equal a 6%
annual return on the Limited Partners' average adjusted capital investment for
each year (their initial capital investment as reduced by sale or refinancing
proceeds previously distributed) commencing with the third calendar quarter of
1986. After such distributions, the General Partners shall receive (to the
extent not previously received) proceeds up to 3% of the aggregate gross sales
price of properties previously sold by the Partnership with any remaining
proceeds allocated 85% to the Limited Partners and 15% to the General
Partners. The Limited Partners have not yet received cash distributions of
sale or refinancing proceeds in an amount equal to their initial capital
investment in the Partnership. Therefore, 1% of the proceeds of this sale
would be distributable to the General Partners. If upon the completion of the
liquidation of the Partnership and the distribution of all Partnership funds,
the Limited Partners have not received the amounts in (i) and (ii) above, the
General Partners will be required to return all or a portion of the 1%
distribution of sale or financing proceeds described above in a amount equal
to such deficiency in payments to the Limited Partners pursuant to (i) and
(ii) above.

PARTNERSHIP INTEREST
PURCHASE AGREEMENT
(Eastridge Mall, Casper, Wyoming)
THIS AGREEMENT made and entered into as of the ______ day of June,
1995, by and among CARLYLE REAL ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP-XV, an Illinois
limited partnership ("Seller") and PRICE DEVELOPMENT COMPANY, LIMITED
PARTNERSHIP, a Maryland limited partnership ("Buyer").
R E C I T A L S
A. Seller and the parties specified in Exhibit "A" attached hereto
and made a part hereof (collectively, the "Price Group") constitute the
sole partners in "EAST RIDGE DEVELOPMENT COMPANY", a Utah limited
partnership (the "Partnership") formed and existing pursuant to that
certain partnership agreement described on Exhibit "B" attached hereto and
made a part hereof (the agreement and amendments so described, together
with all other amendments or modifications entered into prior hereto, being
herein collectively called the "Partnership Agreement"). Except as
otherwise set forth herein, all terms used in a defined manner herein shall
have the meanings set forth for such terms in the Partnership Agreement.
B. The Partnership is the owner of a certain shopping center
located in Casper, Wyoming and commonly known as "Eastridge Mall" (the
"Business Property").
C. Seller desires to sell, and Buyer desire to purchase, all of
Seller's interest in the Partnership in the manner hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual undertakings of the
parties hereto, it is hereby agreed as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale Transactions.
A. Sale of Partnership Interest. For the purchase price and on
the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, Seller shall sell to Buyer,
and Buyer shall purchase from Seller, the interest of Seller in the
Partnership, as such interest is described in the Partnership Agreement,
including, but not limited to, Seller's interest in the capital and profits
and losses of the Partnership. The Partnership interests to be purchased
by Buyer (in the percentages hereinafter set forth) as aforesaid are herein
called the "Acquired Partnership Interest".
B. Purchase Price. The parties agree that the payments to be made
in connection with the transactions contemplated herein have been
calculated on the basis of a deemed value for the assets of the Partnership
of $24,075,000. The Partnership is the obligor under the "Existing Loan",
and the Business Property is currently encumbered by, among other matters,
the "Existing Loan Documents" (as such terms are hereinafter defined). The
deemed value of the assets of the Partnership in excess of the outstanding
balance of the Existing Loan is deemed attributable entirely to the
Acquired Partnership Interest as a result of the provisions of the
Partnership Agreement. The Existing Loan is to be paid off and, together
with the Existing Loan Documents, discharged by or on behalf of the
Partnership concurrently with, and as a condition to, the closing of the
transactions hereunder. Except as to such Existing Loan, Buyer shall
acquire the Acquired Partnership Interest subject to all of the other
obligations and liabilities of the Partnership existing as of the Closing
Date. Based upon the foregoing, and as consideration for the transactions
hereunder, Buyer shall pay the sum of $24,050,000, as adjusted by the
prorations and credits specified herein, payable as follows:
(1) Escrow Deposit. Concurrently herewith, Buyer shall
deliver a bank or cashier's check or other good funds in the amount of
$500,000 to First American Title Insurance Company, National/Commercial
Division, at its offices at 338 East 400 South, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111
(Attention: Cindy Lund), which company, in its capacity as escrow holder
hereunder, is called "Escrow Holder"). The proceeds of such check or other
good funds shall be deposited and held by Escrow Holder as a deposit
against the payments due Seller hereunder in accordance with the terms and
provisions of this Agreement. As used herein, the term "Escrow Deposit"
shall mean the foregoing $500,000 deposit, together with all interest
thereon. At all times in which the Escrow Deposit is being held by the
Escrow Holder, the Escrow Deposit shall be invested by Escrow Holder in the
following investments ("Approved Investments"): (i) United States Treasury
obligations, (ii) United States Treasury-backed repurchase agreements
issued by a major national money center banking institution reasonably
acceptable to Seller, or (iii) such other manner as may be reasonably
agreed to by Seller and Buyer. The Escrow Deposit shall be disposed of by
Escrow Holder only as provided in this Agreement. Seller and Buyer agree
to promptly execute such additional escrow instructions as may be required
by Escrow Holder provided the same are consistent with the terms of this
Agreement and are otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the parties.
(2) Payoff of Existing Loan. An amount equal to the
principal balance of the Existing Loan, together with all other sums due
thereunder, shall be paid by Buyer on the Closing Date (and shall be
utilized to pay off all such sums due under the Existing Loan and discharge
the same). It shall be a condition precedent to the transactions hereunder
that the Existing Loan be paid off without penalty, premium or other
material fees in connection therewith.
(3) Closing Payment Due Seller. An amount equal to the
"Equity Amount" (as hereinafter defined), as adjusted by the application of
the Escrow Deposit and other adjustments specified herein, shall be paid in
cash on the "Closing Date", as hereinafter defined (the amount to be paid
under this subparagraph B(3) being herein called the "Closing Payment").
C. Certain Definitions.
(1) "Equity Amount", as used herein, means the amount by
which $24,050,000 exceeds the principal balance of the "Existing Loan" as
of the Closing Date. For example, assuming the Closing Date shall be
June 30, 1995 (and the June 1 installment under the Existing Loan has been
made), the Equity Amount is anticipated to be $861,621 (i.e., $24,050,000
minus the outstanding loan balance of approximately $23,188,379). If the
Closing Date is extended by agreement of the parties into July, 1995 (and,
the July 1 installment under the Existing Loan shall have been made), the
Equity Amount is anticipated to be $887,077 (i.e., $24,050,000 minus the
outstanding loan balance of approximately $23,162,923).
(2) "Existing Loan", as used herein, means that certain loan
in the original principal amount of $25,000,000 made to the Partnership by
Aetna Life Insurance Company ("Existing Lender"), which loan is evidenced
by that certain promissory note dated September 9, 1985, in the original
amount of $25,000,000 given by the Partnership in favor of Existing Lender
and secured by, among other matters, a Mortgage, Assignment of Rents and
Security Agreement and an Assignment of Rents and Leases, each dated
September 9, 1985, given by the Partnership in favor of Existing Lender
(all such documents, together with all other documents or instruments
evidencing or securing the Existing Loan, including any and all amendments
thereto, are herein called the "Existing Loan Documents").
2. Closing Procedure. The purchase of the Acquired Partnership
Interest shall be consummated through a closing conference ("Closing
Conference") which shall be held at Buyer's offices at 35 Century Park-Way,
Salt Lake City, Utah. In order to facilitate the closing of the
transactions hereunder, the parties will meet at a pre-closing conference
commencing on June 27, 1995, with the intention to finalize the closing
matters contemplated herein in a timely manner so as to cause the actual
closing hereunder to occur on the Closing Date. As used herein, the
"Closing Date" means an effective date as of June 30, 1995, or such earlier
or later date as shall be hereafter agreed upon by the parties hereto for
the sale herein provided.
A. Delivery of Documents.
(1) Escrow. On or before the Closing Date, the parties shall
deliver to Escrow Holder the following: (1) by Seller, duly executed and
acknowledged originals of an assignment and assumption of the Acquired
Partnership Interest ("Assignment and Assumption of Partnership Interest")
in the form of Exhibit "C" attached hereto and made a part hereof, and
(2) by Buyer, duly executed and acknowledged originals of the Assignment
and Assumption of Partnership Interest, together with the Closing Payment
and the amounts necessary to discharge the Existing Loan as herein provided
in immediately available federal funds. Such deliveries shall be made
pursuant to escrow instructions ("Escrow Instructions") to be executed
among Buyer, Seller and Escrow Holder in form reasonably acceptable to such
parties in order to effectuate the intent hereof. The conditions to the
closing of such escrow shall include the Escrow Holder's receipt of the
Assignment and Assumption of Partnership Interest, the Closing Payment and
a notice from each of Buyer and Seller authorizing Escrow Holder to close
the transactions as contemplated herein (each of Buyer and Seller being
obligated to deliver such authorization notice at the Closing Conference as
soon as it is reasonably satisfied that the other party is in a position to
deliver the items to be delivered by such other party under subparagraph B
below).
B. Delivery to Parties. Upon the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in the Escrow Instructions, then (x) the Assignment and
Assumption of Partnership Interest shall be delivered to both Seller and
Buyer by Escrow Holder, (y) the Closing Payment (and the Escrow Deposit)
shall be delivered by Title Company to Seller and the amounts necessary to
pay-off the Existing Loan delivered by the Title Company to the Existing
Lender, and (z) at the Closing Conference, the following items shall be
delivered:
(1) Seller Deliveries. Seller shall deliver to Buyer the
following:
(a) Duly executed and acknowledged certificates
regarding the "non-foreign" status of Seller;
(b) A certificate of Seller ("Seller Closing
Certificate") updating the representations and warranties contained in
paragraph 4A hereof to the Closing Date and noting any changes thereto; and
(c) Evidence reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and Title
Company respecting the due organization of Seller and the due authorization
and execution of this Agreement and the documents required to be delivered
hereunder.
(2) Buyer Deliveries. Buyer shall deliver to Seller the
following:
(a) A certificate of Buyer ("Buyer Closing
Certificate") updating the representations and warranties contained in
paragraph 4B hereof to the Closing Date and noting any changes thereto;
(b) Evidence reasonably satisfactory to Seller and
Title Company respecting the due organization of Buyer and the due
authorization and execution of this Agreement and the documents required to
be delivered hereunder; and
(c) Any other documents or instruments required to be
delivered by Buyer hereunder (including the release and indemnity specified
in paragraph 6A hereof, and the release from the Existing Lender if
required hereunder).
C. Partnership Amendments. Seller and Buyer shall execute and
deliver such amendments to the Partnership Agreement and the Certificate of
Limited Partnership of the Partnership and such other Partnership documents
as may be reasonably required to effectuate the sale of Seller's interest
in the Partnership as contemplated herein. Buyer shall cause all other
members of the Price Group which may be necessary to sign such documents to
execute and deliver the same.
D. Prorations and Adjustments. All items of income and expense in
connection with the ownership and operation of the Business Property shall
be prorated on the Closing Date, computed as of the Closing Date, to
allocate the income and expenses of the Partnership between the Partnership
as it was constituted immediately prior to the sale of the Acquired
Partnership Interest hereunder and the Partnership as it is constituted
immediately following the sale of the Acquired Partnership Interest
hereunder. In addition, Seller shall be entitled to receive an amount
equal to the aggregate amount of any capital profits, losses, distributions
and other sums or proceeds which may have accrued in favor of Seller under
the Partnership Agreement prior to the Closing Date.
E. Calculations of Proration Amount and Seller Accrual Amount.
The adjustments under subparagraph D above shall be determined on the basis
of a written statement or statements prepared and approved by Buyer and
Seller prior to the Closing Conference. Buyer and Seller shall determine
the manner in which such are to be calculated, in a fair, equitable and
reasonable manner. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in
good faith in connection with the determinations and computations required
hereunder. In the event any prorations, credits, apportionments or
computations made under subparagraph D above shall prove to be incorrect
for any reason, then each of Seller and Buyer shall be entitled to an
adjustment to correct the same, provided that any party entitled to such
adjustment make written demand on such other party from whom it is entitled
to such adjustment within one year after the Closing Date. Any item which
cannot be finally prorated or determined because of the unavailability of
information shall be tentatively prorated or determined on the basis of the
best data then available and reprorated after the information is available.
In connection therewith, after the Closing Date Buyer shall continue to
provide Seller reasonable access to all books and records of the
Partnership and to all other financial information as may be reasonably
required in connection with the foregoing determinations. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Buyer and Seller hereby agree that, for ease of
administration and other reasons, they will work in good faith to attempt
to determine a final closing amount which will encompass all prorations,
credits and other determinations to be made under this section, such that
no post-closing adjustments for such items will be required.
F. Closing Costs. Subject to the brokerage provisions of
paragraph 9 below, Buyer shall pay all closing costs in connection with the
transactions contemplated in this Agreement, including all documentary,
filing, recording, conveyance, transfer, intangible and other taxes, if
any, recording or filing charges for any instruments or documents which may
be recorded or filed, if any, all title, survey or escrow fees, if any.
Buyer shall pay its own legal fees, as well as the legal fees of Seller, in
connection with the transactions contemplated herein; provided, however,
Buyer shall not be obligated to pay more than $25,000 towards Seller's
legal fees and such reimbursement obligation shall not include any legal
fees of Seller incurred in connection with any litigation between Seller
and Buyer which may arise in connection with this Agreement.
3. Profits and Losses of the Partnership Prior to Closing; Tax
Returns. Subject to the provisions set forth in paragraph 2E above, the
parties confirm that profits and losses of the Partnership for the period
from January 1, 1995 through the Closing Date shall be allocated for tax
reporting purposes pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Partnership
Agreement. Buyer will cooperate with Seller in providing and preparing
such information and items as may be required in order to timely prepare
and deliver tax returns and other similar items after the Closing Date
(and, in connection therewith, after the Closing Date Buyer shall continue
to provide Seller reasonable access to all books and records of the
Partnership and to all other financial information as may be reasonably
required in connection with such determinations).
4. Representations and Warranties.
A. Representations and Warranties of Seller. Seller hereby

(1) The indemnity shall cover the costs and expenses of the
indemnities, including reasonable attorneys' fees, related to any actions,
suits or judgments incident to any of the matters covered by such
indemnity.
(2) The indemnitee shall notify the indemnitor of any claim
against the indemnitee covered by the indemnity within 30 days after it has
notice of such claim, but failure to notify the indemnitor shall in no case
prejudice the rights of the indemnitee under this Agreement unless the
indemnitor shall be prejudiced by such failure and then only to the extent
the indemnitor shall be prejudiced by such failure. Should the indemnitor
fail to discharge or undertake to defend the indemnitee against such
liability upon learning of the same, then the indemnitee may settle such
liability, and the liability of the indemnitor hereunder shall be

all of the transferor's obligations hereunder, but such transferor shall
not be released from its obligations hereunder); provided, however, Buyer
may assign its interest in this Agreement to a limited partnership in which
Buyer is the managing general partner and has not less than a 51% interest
in capital and profits in such limited partnership. No consent given by
Seller to any transfer or assignment of Buyer's rights or obligations
hereunder shall be construed as a consent to any other transfer or
assignment of Buyer's rights or obligations hereunder. No transfer or
assignment in violation of the provisions hereof shall be valid or
enforceable. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and the terms and
provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
successors and assigns of the parties.
8. DISPOSITION OF DEPOSITS. IF THE TRANSACTION HEREIN PROVIDED
SHALL NOT BE CLOSED BY REASON OF SELLER'S DEFAULT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR
THE FAILURE OF SATISFACTION OF THE CONDITIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN, THEN THE
ESCROW DEPOSIT SHALL BE RETURNED TO BUYER, AND NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE ANY
FURTHER OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY TO THE OTHER; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, IF THE
TRANSACTIONS HEREUNDER SHALL FAIL TO CLOSE SOLELY BY REASON OF SELLER'S
DEFAULT, AND BUYER SHALL HAVE FULLY PERFORMED ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND
SHALL BE READY, WILLING AND ABLE TO CLOSE, THEN BUYER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO
SPECIFICALLY ENFORCE THIS AGREEMENT (BUT NO OTHER ACTION, FOR DAMAGES OR
