any of, or commit or agree to take any of, the foregoing actions or any action

5.4 ACCESS AND INVESTIGATION.
(a) Prior to the Closing, the Sellers shall, and shall cause the
Companies and their Representatives to, provide the Buyers and their
Representatives with full and free access, during normal business hours and upon
reasonable notice, to the Companies' personnel, properties, contracts, books and
records and other documents and data, including tax returns, and shall furnish
the Buyers with copies of all documents and with such additional financial and
operating data and other information as the Buyers shall, from time to time,
reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Buyers to investigate the
affairs of the Companies and the Acquired Business and the accuracy of the
representations and warranties of the Sellers made in this Agreement. During
such investigation, the Buyers and their Representatives shall have the right to
make copies of such contracts, books and records, tax returns and other
documents and data as they may deem advisable. The furnishing of such
information to the Buyers and any such investigation by the Buyers shall not
affect the Buyers' right to rely on any of the representations and warranties
made in this Agreement. The Buyers shall use their best efforts not to
unreasonably disrupt the business or operations of the Sellers or the Companies.
(b) The Buyers and their Representatives shall be entitled, upon
reasonable notice to the Sellers, to cause one or more environmental assessments
of the Properties (each, an "ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT") to be performed, at the
Buyers' expense. Each Environmental Assessment may include any and all
investigations that the Buyers deem appropriate for assessing the environmental
condition of and any potential environmental liabilities associated with the
Properties. The Sellers shall provide the Buyers and their Representatives with
full access to the Properties, during normal
45
<PAGE>
business hours and upon reasonable notice, and shall not interfere with any
Environmental Assessment, and shall provide all necessary information that is in
the Sellers' possession or control that may be necessary or desirable for each
Environmental Assessment. The Buyers shall indemnify the Sellers and the
Companies for any Damages to the Properties as a result of such Environmental
Assessments.
5.5 NO NEGOTIATIONS. The Sellers shall not, and shall not permit any
of their Representatives or any other Person acting for or on behalf of any of
them to, solicit, entertain offers from, negotiate with, or in any manner
discuss, encourage, recommend or agree to any proposal relating to (a) the sale
of the Acquired Business, the Companies or any interest therein, (b) the merger,
consolidation or other combination of the Companies with any Person, or (c) the
liquidation, dissolution or reorganization of the Companies, except (i) as
specifically contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) to the extent that the
Sellers' failure to do so would, in the opinion of counsel to the Sellers (a
copy of which shall have been delivered to the Buyers), constitute a breach of
the Sellers' fiduciary duties. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Sellers shall not, and shall not permit any of their
Representatives or any other Person acting for or on behalf of any of them to,
furnish or cause to be furnished any information with respect to the Companies
to any Person other than the Buyers and their Representatives except that, if
necessary, in the opinion of counsel to the Sellers (a copy of which shall have
been delivered to the Buyers), for any LLC to comply with any fiduciary
obligations as a general partner of a Subsidiary Limited Partnership, such LLC
may disclose information to the limited partners of such Partnership or any
other Person. If any of the Sellers or any of their Representatives receives
from any Person any offer, proposal or informational request that may be subject
to this Section, the Sellers shall, as soon as possible, but in any event within
three Business Days, (w) advise the Buyers of such offer, proposal or
informational request, (x) provide the Buyers with a copy of any document or
writing received by any of the Sellers or their Representatives relating to such
offer, proposal or informational request, (y) advise such Person, by written
notice, of the terms of this Section, and (z) deliver a copy of such notice to
the Buyers.
5.6 TRANSFER TAXES. The Sellers shall be liable for, and shall
indemnify and hold the Buyers harmless against, any liability for any sales,
gains, transfer or similar Taxes resulting from the transfer to the Buyers of
any of the Acquired Assets pursuant to this Agreement.
5.7 APPORTIONMENT. Buyers and Sellers shall, as of the Closing Date,
apportion (a) the real property Taxes on all Acquired Properties, (b) other
similar recurring municipal and state charges, assessments and permit fees for
the Acquired Properties, (c) rentals, revenues and other income, if any, from
the Acquired Properties, and (d) service or other contract fees, utility costs
and other expenses affecting the Acquired Properties. All such prorations shall
be allocated so that items relating to time periods ending on or prior to the
Closing Date shall be allocated to the Sellers and items relating to time
periods beginning after the Closing Date shall be allocated to the Buyers (based
on the actual number of days occurring in each such period to the total number
46
<PAGE>
of days in the relevant year or other period). The amount of all such
prorations shall be settled and paid on or before the tenth business day
following the Closing Date; provided, however, that final payments with respect
to prorations that are not able to be calculated as of the Closing Date will be
calculated and paid as soon as practicable thereafter. The parties hereto agree
to furnish each other with such documents and other records as shall be
reasonably requested to confirm all proration calculations and other payments
due under this SECTION 5.7. Delinquent rentals as of the Closing Date shall not
be prorated, but when paid to the Buyers shall be delivered by the Buyers to the
Sellers (provided that all current rent has then been paid with respect to the
Tenant Leases). After the Closing, the Sellers shall have no right to proceed
in any manner or make any claim against tenants for rents that were delinquent
as of the Closing Date. All non-delinquent real estate taxes or assessments on
any of the Acquired Properties shall be prorated based on the actual current tax
bill, but if such tax bill has not yet been received by the Sellers by the
Closing Date or if supplemental taxes are assessed after the Closing for the
period prior to the Closing, the parties shall make any necessary adjustment
after the Closing by cash payment to the party entitled thereto so that the
Sellers shall have borne all real property taxes, including all supplemental
taxes, allocable to the period prior to the Closing and the Buyers shall bear
all real property taxes, including all supplemental taxes, allocable to the
period from and after the Closing. If any expenses attributable to any of the
Acquired Properties and allocable to the period prior to the Closing are
discovered or billed after the Closing, the parties shall make any necessary
adjustment after the Closing by cash payment to the party entitled thereto so
that the Sellers shall have borne all expenses allocable to the period prior to
the Closing and the Buyers shall bear all expenses allocable to the period from
and after the Closing.
5.8 PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS. At all times at or before the Closing,
none of the Buyers or the Sellers shall issue or make, directly or indirectly,
any reports, statements or releases to the public with respect to this Agreement
or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of
AIMCO, in the case of the Sellers, or English, in the case of the Buyers;
provided, however, that each of the Buyers and the Sellers may issue or make,
directly or indirectly, any report, statement or release required by Law, its
fiduciary obligations or the rules of the New York Stock Exchange if the other
parties to this Agreement are so notified as soon as possible in advance of such
report, statement or release.
5.9 OFFER TO ACQUIRE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS.
(a) Provided that nothing shall have occurred and be continuing
that would result in a failure to satisfy any of the conditions set forth in
subsection (f) below (the "OFFER CONDITIONS"), AIMCO OP shall, on the Escrow
Date, commence offers (each, an "OFFER") to purchase any and all of the
outstanding limited partnership units of each of the Apartment Partnerships (the
"LP UNITS") at a price per LP Unit equal to the Formula Price (as defined in
subsection (d) below) applicable to such Apartment Partnership; provided,
however, that AIMCO OP shall not have any obligation to make any Offer to
purchase LP Units of any Apartment Partnership if the Formula Price for
47
<PAGE>
such Apartment Partnership is zero or less than zero. AIMCO OP shall use its
best efforts to conduct each Offer in compliance in all material respects with
applicable laws and to consummate such Offer on the terms and subject to the
Offer Conditions thereof, as soon as legally permissible.
(b) Each Offer shall be made by means of the Offer Documents (as
defined below) which shall not contain any conditions other than the Offer
Conditions and shall be open for a period of not less than 20 Business Days.
Pursuant to each Offer, AIMCO OP shall offer each holder of LP Units of an
Apartment Partnership who tenders his LP Units to AIMCO OP cash per each LP Unit
in an amount equal to the Formula Price applicable to such Apartment Partnership
and shall provide each such holder who is an Accredited Investor the alternative
of receiving, in lieu of cash consideration for some or all of his LP Units, at
such holder's election, OP Units in a number determined by reference to the
AIMCO Market Price as of the date such Offer is consummated. Without the
consent of English, AIMCO OP shall not reduce the maximum number of LP Units to
be purchased in any Offer, reduce the price to be paid pursuant to an Offer or
amend any other material term of an Offer in a manner adverse to the holders of
the LP Units subject to such Offer. The "OFFER DOCUMENTS" shall consist of (i)
an offer to purchase containing all information required by Law, and (ii) a
private placement memorandum describing the offering of OP Units to Accredited
Investors pursuant to an Offer, containing information substantially similar to
the information contained in the PPM.
(c) The Buyers shall cause the information included, or
incorporated by reference, in the Offer Documents (other than information
provided by the Sellers for inclusion in the Offer Documents) not to contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not
misleading at the time the Offer Documents (or any amendment or supplement
thereto) are first mailed to the limited partners of the Apartment Partnerships.
The Sellers shall promptly furnish to AIMCO OP all information concerning the
Sellers and the Apartment Partnerships as AIMCO OP may reasonably request in
connection with the preparation of the Offer Documents. The Sellers shall cause
the information supplied by them for inclusion in the Offer Documents not to
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein not misleading at the time the Offer Documents (or any amendment or
supplement thereto) are first mailed to the limited partners of the Apartment
Partnerships. If, at any time prior to the termination of an Offer or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, any event or circumstance
relating to the Sellers or the Apartment Partnerships is discovered by the
Sellers that makes the information provided by the Sellers to AIMCO OP for
inclusion in the Offer Documents inaccurate, incomplete or misleading, the
Sellers shall promptly inform AIMCO OP thereof. The Sellers shall indemnify
AIMCO OP and its Representatives against all claims and Damages arising out of
or based upon any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material
fact contained in the Offer Documents or any amendment or supplement thereto, or
based on any
48
<PAGE>
omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in
each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or
alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) relates to the
Sellers or the Apartment Partnerships or is made in reliance upon and in
conformity with information furnished to AIMCO OP by the Sellers for inclusion
therein. The Buyers shall indemnify the Sellers and their Representatives
against all claims and Damages arising out of or based upon any untrue statement
(or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in the Offer
Documents or any amendment or supplement thereto, or based on any omission (or
alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except to the extent
that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged
omission) relates to the Sellers of the Apartment Partnerships or is made in
reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to AIMCO OP by the
Sellers for inclusion therein. Neither the Buyers' nor the Sellers'
indemnification obligations contained in this paragraph shall apply to the
Fairness Opinion or its contents.
(d) The price to be offered for an LP Unit of an Apartment
Partnership pursuant to each Offer (the "FORMULA PRICE") shall be determined in
good faith by AIMCO OP in accordance with the methodology set forth in EXHIBIT A
hereto.
(e) The Sellers shall retain Houlihan, Lokey, Howard & Zukin
(the "FINANCIAL ADVISOR") to consider the fairness of each Formula Price. Upon
determination of the Formula Prices and prior to commencement of any Offer,
AIMCO OP shall disclose each of the Formula Prices to English, on behalf of the
Sellers. The Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
Financial Advisor to render its opinion (the "FAIRNESS OPINION") as to the
fairness of each Formula Price within five Business Days after AIMCO OP's
disclosure of such Formula Prices to English. AIMCO OP shall not commence any
Offer unless and until the Financial Advisor has determined that each of the
Formula Prices for the Offers is fair from a financial point of view to the
limited partners of the Apartment Partnerships, and has delivered to the Sellers
and the Buyers its written opinion to such effect, which opinion shall be
addressed to the Sellers and the Buyers. The Buyers and the Sellers shall
provide the Financial Advisor with complete copies of all documents that contain
or summarize the Fairness Opinion prior to their filing with any Governmental
Authority or their being furnished to the limited partners of the Partnerships.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provisions of an Offer, AIMCO OP
shall not be required to accept for payment and pay for any LP Units tendered
pursuant to an Offer, may postpone the purchase of, and payment for, LP Units
tendered, and may terminate or amend an Offer if at any time on or after the
date of the Agreement, and at or before the time of acceptance for payment of
any such LP Units (whether or not any LP Units have theretofore been accepted
for payment and paid for) pursuant to the Offer, any of the following shall
occur:
49
<PAGE>
(i) any change (or any condition, event or development
involving a prospective change) shall have occurred or been threatened in
the business, properties, assets, liabilities, capitalization, financial
condition, operations, licenses or franchises, or results of operations of
the Apartment Partnership to which such Offer relates, which change, in the
sole judgment of AIMCO OP, is or may be materially adverse to such
Apartment Partnership, or AIMCO OP shall have become aware of any facts
relating to such Apartment Partnership or its operations which, in the sole
judgment of AIMCO OP, has or may have material significance with respect to
the value of such Partnership or the value of the LP Units to AIMCO OP; or
(ii) there shall have occurred (A) any general suspension
of trading in, or limitation on prices for, securities on any national
securities exchange or the over-the-counter market in the United States,
(B) any extraordinary or material adverse change in the financial markets
or major stock exchange indices in the United States, (C) a declaration of
a banking moratorium or any suspension of payments in respect of banks in
the United States, (D) a commencement of a war, armed hostilities or other
national or international calamity directly or indirectly involving the
United States, (E) any limitation (whether or not mandatory) by any
Governmental Authority on, or any other event which, in the sole judgment
of AIMCO OP, might affect the extension of credit by banks or other lending
institutions, or (F) in the case of any of the foregoing existing at the
time of the commencement of the Offer, in the sole judgment of AIMCO OP, a
material acceleration or worsening thereof; or
(iii) there shall have been threatened, instituted, or
pending any action, proceeding, application or counterclaim by any
government, Governmental Authority or governmental agency, or by any other
Person, before any Governmental Authority, court or regulatory or
administrative agency, authority or tribunal, which (A) challenges or seeks
to challenge the acquisition by AIMCO OP of the LP Units, restrain, or
prohibit or delay the making or consummation of the Offer, prohibit the
performance of any of the contracts or other arrangements entered into by
AIMCO OP (or any Affiliates of AIMCO OP) in connection with the acquisition
of the LP Units, or (if there is a substantial likelihood of success on the
merits) obtain any material amount of Damages or otherwise directly or
indirectly relating to the transactions contemplated by the Offer, (B)
seeks to make the purchase of, or payment for, some or all of the LP Units
pursuant to the Offer illegal or results in a delay in the ability of AIMCO
OP to accept for payment or pay for some or all of the LP Units, (C) seeks
to prohibit or limit the ownership or operation by AIMCO OP of the entity
serving as general partner of the Apartment

any affiliate of AIMCO OP to conduct the Partnership's business or own such
assets, (D) seeks to impose material limitations on the ability of AIMCO OP
to acquire or hold or to exercise full rights of ownership of the LP Units
including, but not limited to, the right to vote the LP Units purchased by
it on all matters properly presented to the limited partners of the
Partnership, or (E) might result, in the sole judgment of AIMCO OP, in a
limitation of the benefits expected to be derived by AIMCO OP as a result
of the transactions contemplated by the Offer or the value of the LP Units
to AIMCO OP; or
(iv) there shall be any action taken, or any statute,
rule, regulation, Order or injunction shall be sought, proposed, enacted,
promulgated, entered, enforced or deemed applicable to the Offer, AIMCO OP
or any Affiliate of AIMCO OP, or any other action shall have been taken,

indirectly: (i) in favor of any proposal or offer to acquire all or any portion
of the Partnerships, or interest therein, whether by tender or exchange offer,
merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of assets, sale of additional
interests, or similar transaction (each, an "ACQUISITION PROPOSAL") made by
AIMCO OP or one of its Affiliates; (ii) against any Acquisition Proposal not
made by AIMCO OP or one of its Affiliates; (iii) against any action or agreement

(b) The Sellers hereby appoint AIMCO OP, with full power of
substitution (AIMCO OP and its substitutes being referred to herein as the
"PROXY"), as attorneys and proxies to vote all interests of the Sellers in the
Partnerships at every meeting of the partners of the Partnerships and on any
matter to which the partners of the Partnerships are entitled to express consent
or dissent in writing without a meeting. The Sellers agree that the Proxy may,
in the Sellers' name (or any of them) and stead, (i) attend any annual or
special meeting of the partners of the Partnerships and vote all interests of
the Sellers in the Partnerships at any such annual or special meeting, and (ii)
execute with respect to all interests of the Sellers in the Partnerships any

either as to a specific matter or as to all matters. The Sellers hereby revoke
any proxy previously granted by them with respect to their interests in the
Partnerships and agree to take such further action as may be necessary or
desirable to effectuate such revocation. In discharging its powers under the
Agreement, the Proxy may rely upon advice of counsel, and any vote made or
action taken by the Proxy in reliance upon such advice of counsel shall be
deemed to have been made in good faith by the Proxy.
(c) The Sellers hereby agree to tender (and not withdraw) all
interests in the Partnerships owned or held, directly or indirectly, by them or
one of their
53
<PAGE>
Affiliates to AIMCO OP or one of its Affiliates, as the case may be, pursuant to
the Offers.
(d) Except as contemplated in this Agreement, (i) the Sellers
will not, and will cause their Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, sell,
transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any
contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale,
transfer, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any interests
in any of the Companies, and (ii) the Sellers will not, and will cause their
Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, grant or agree to grant any proxies

EXHIBIT I hereto (collectively, the "REORGANIZATION"). Prior to the Escrow
Closing and after the Reorganization, the Sellers shall cause AIMCO Holdings to
be appointed the general partner of each of the LLCs, effective as of, and
conditioned on, the Closing. Prior to the Escrow Closing, to the extent the
relevant Organizational Documents permit the Sellers or the LLCs to take such
action without the consent of the limited partners of the Partnerships, the
Sellers shall amend the partnership agreements of the Partnerships, (a) to the
extent such agreements do not already so provide, to provide that no one can
become a limited partner without the consent of the general partner, which
consent may be denied in the "sole and absolute discretion" of the general
partner, and (b) to elect to have the Texas Revised Partnership Act apply as its
supplemental law.

5.16 EMPLOYEES.
(a) At least 10 Business Days prior to the Escrow Date, the
Buyers shall provide the Sellers with a list of those employees (the
"TRANSFERRED EMPLOYEES") of JWE Management to whom the Buyers intend to offer
employment after the Closing, which list shall include substantially all of the
employees of JWE Management who currently provide on-site management of the
Properties. Effective as of the Closing, the Sellers shall terminate the
employment of the Transferred Employees, and AIMCO OP or one of its Affiliates
will offer employment to the Transferred Employees. Such offer of employment to
the Transferred Employees will be at salaries, wages and benefits determined by
AIMCO OP or such Affiliate, but not materially less, on an overall basis, than
the salaries, wages and benefits currently provided to the Transferred Employees
by JWE Management. AIMCO OP or such Affiliate shall give all Transferred
Employees who accept employment with AIMCO OP or such Affiliate credit for prior
service with JWE Management for purposes of determining eligibility and vesting
(but not benefit accrual) under employee benefit plans, policies and
arrangements of AIMCO OP or such Affiliate.
(b) The Sellers acknowledge and agree that (i) the employment of
the Transferred Employees by AIMCO OP or such Affiliate will be at-will, and
(ii) the terms and conditions of the Transferred Employees' employment with
AIMCO OP or such Affiliate will be subject to change at any time in accordance
with the policies of AIMCO OP or such affiliate.
(c) On or before the Closing Date, the Sellers shall pay all
Transferred Employees all sums they are due as of the Closing Date for severance
benefits, if any, and earned but unpaid salary, wages and benefits, and any
expense account reimbursements (collectively, "SEVERANCE COSTS"); and, at least
5 Business Days prior to the Escrow Date, the Sellers shall provide the Buyers
with a good faith estimate (the "ESTIMATED REIMBURSABLE SEVERANCE COSTS") of the
amount (the "REIMBURSABLE SEVERANCE COSTS") of Severance Costs for which each of
the Apartment Partnerships is or will be required to reimburse JWE Management or
any of the other Sellers. It is expressly understood and agreed that neither
AIMCO OP, such Affiliate nor any of the other Buyers are assuming any liability
for earned but unpaid salary, wages and benefits, including accrued but unpaid
vacation days and personal holidays, expense account reimbursement obligations

consent of the Sellers, the Buyers shall not sell, assign, distribute or
otherwise dispose of any of the Contributed Assets, the Company Properties
(other than the Property owned by Hastings Green Partners, Ltd. and the Weslayan

(b) During the Restricted Period, the Buyers shall be entitled
to sell, assign, distribute or otherwise dispose of the Aggregate Assets if such

action inconsistent with its classification as a partnership; and will make any
election, or will consent to the making of any election, to be treated as a

752 of the Code in an amount that is less than the amount set forth for such
Seller on Schedule 5.23 only if both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(i) the reason that the share of such Seller is less than the amount set forth
for such Seller on SCHEDULE 5.23 arises from either principal amortization or
the issuance of additional OP units by AIMCO OP (a "BASIS REDUCTION EVENT")
after the Closing Date, and (ii) AIMCO OP provides at least 90 days notice to
such Seller in advance of such Basis Reduction Event and, at such Seller's

purposes by reason of such Basis Reduction Event.

1997, except that (x) willful, intentional or fraudulent breaches or
inaccuracies shall not be subject to any limitation, and (y) the Buyers'
obligations under SECTIONS 8.2(a) AND (b) may not exceed $1,000,000 for breaches
or inaccuracies that are not willful, intentional or fraudulent and are
disclosed in writing by the Buyers to the Sellers prior to the Closing Date.
8.3 PROCEDURES RELATING TO INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) Each person to be indemnified pursuant to SECTION 8.1 or
SECTION 8.2 (an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") agrees to give prompt notice (a "NOTICE OF
THIRD PARTY CLAIM") to the indemnifying party of the assertion of any claim, or
the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding, brought against or sought to
be collected from such indemnified party (each, a "THIRD PARTY CLAIM"), in
respect of which indemnity may be sought by such indemnified party under SECTION
8.1 or SECTION 8.2; provided that the omission so to promptly notify the
indemnifying party with respect to a Third Party Claim brought against or sought
to be collected from such indemnified party will not relieve the indemnifying
party from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under
SECTION 8.1 or SECTION 8.2 except to the extent that such failure has materially
prejudiced such indemnifying party with respect to the defense of such Third
Party Claim. If any indemnified party shall seek indemnity under SECTION 8.1 or
SECTION 8.2 with respect to a Third Party Claim brought against or sought to be
collected from such
68
<PAGE>
indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent that it wishes, to assume and direct the defense and
settlement thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided
that if such indemnifying party shall so assume the defense and settlement of
any Third Party Claim brought against or sought to be collected from such
indemnified party, such Third Party Claim shall be conclusively deemed a matter
in respect of which such indemnified party is entitled to be indemnified by such
indemnifying party under SECTION 8.1 or SECTION 8.2, as the case may be; and
provided further that if any Third Party Claim brought against or sought to be
collected from any indemnified party includes a request for injunctive or other
equitable relief that, if granted, is reasonably likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect or a similar effect on such indemnified party, such indemnified
party shall be entitled to control and direct the defense and settlement thereof
and in such event the legal and other expenses subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof shall be paid by the
indemnifying party. After notice from the indemnifying party to an indemnified
party of its election to assume and direct the defense and settlement of a Third
Party Claim brought against or sought to be collected from such indemnified
party which such indemnifying party is entitled to assume and direct under the
terms hereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified
party under SECTION 8.1 or SECTION 8.2, as the case may be, for any legal or
other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided
that such indemnified party shall have the right to employ counsel to represent
such party if in the reasonable judgment of such party, it is advisable for such
party to be represented by separate counsel because the representation of both
the indemnified party and the indemnifying party in such matter could present
such counsel with a potential conflict of interest and in such event the fees
and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the indemnifying party.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this SECTION 8.3(a), the
indemnifying party shall not (a) without the prior written consent of an
indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding
in respect of which such indemnified party is, or with reasonable
foreseeability, could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought
hereunder by such indemnified party for a Third Party Claim brought against or
sought to be collected from such indemnified party, unless such settlement
includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability
arising out of such proceeding (provided that, whether or not such a release is
required to be obtained, the indemnifying party shall remain liable to such
indemnified party in accordance with SECTION 8.1 or SECTION 8.2 in the event
that a Third Party Claim is subsequently brought against or sought to be
collected from such indemnified party) or (b) be liable for any settlement of
any Third Party Claim brought against or sought to be collected from an
indemnified party effected without such indemnifying party's written consent
(which shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with such
indemnifying party's written consent, or if there is a final judgment for the
plaintiff in any such Third Party Claim, such indemnifying party agrees (to the
extent stated above) to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any
loss, liability, claim, damage or expense by reason or such settlement or
judgment. The indemnification required by SECTION 8.1 or SECTION 8.2, as the
case may be, shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the
69
<PAGE>
course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense is incurred.
(b) In the event any indemnified party should have a claim
(each, a "DIRECT CLAIM") against any indemnifying party under SECTION 8.1 or
SECTION 8.2 that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or
sought to be collected from such indemnified party, the indemnified party shall
deliver notice (a "NOTICE OF DIRECT CLAIM") of such claim with reasonable
promptness to the indemnifying party. The failure by any indemnified party so
to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from
any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under SECTION 8.1 or
SECTION 8.2 except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that
it has been materially prejudiced by such failure. If the indemnifying party
does not notify the indemnified party within 10 calendar days following its
receipt of a Notice of Direct Claim, that the indemnifying party disputes its
liability to the indemnified party under SECTION 8.1 or SECTION 8.2, as the case
may be, such claim specified by the indemnified party in such Notice of Direct
Claim will be conclusively deemed a liability of the indemnifying party under
SECTION 8.1 or SECTION 8.2, as the case may be, and the indemnifying party shall
pay the amount of such liability to the indemnified party on demand, or, in the
case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is
estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion
thereof) becomes finally determined.
(c) If the indemnifying party has timely disputed its liability
with respect to a Third Party Claim or a Direct Claim, the indemnifying party
and the indemnified party agree to proceed in good faith to negotiate a
resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such
dispute will be resolved by arbitration held in Los Angeles, California in
accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA")
then in effect unless the parties mutually agree otherwise. Notice of the
demand for arbitration shall be filed in writing by the indemnified party with
the indemnifying party and with the AAA and shall be made within a reasonable
time after the dispute has arisen. Within 30 days after the date the
arbitration notice is filed with the AAA, the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party shall select one person to act as arbitrator. If the parties
are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within 10 days, the arbitrator shall be
selected by the AAA within 30 days thereafter. The arbitrator shall be
independent and impartial. The arbitrator shall promptly schedule all discovery
and the other steps to be taken in resolution of any controversy, dispute or
claim and otherwise assume sufficient initiative and control to effect the
sufficient and expeditious resolution of the dispute. The award rendered by the
arbitrator shall be final and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance with
applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any liability that the
indemnifying party agrees to assume, or that is determined by the arbitrator to
be a liability of the indemnifying party under SECTION 8.1 or SECTION 8.2 will
be conclusively deemed a liability of the indemnifying party. Except by written
consent of the Person sought to be joined, no arbitration arising out of or
relating to this Agreement shall include, by consolidation, joinder or in any
other manner, any Person not a party to, or otherwise bound by, this Agreement.
The
70
<PAGE>
provisions of this Agreement to arbitrate and any other written agreement to
arbitrate referred to herein shall be specifically enforceable under the
prevailing arbitration law.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
the Buyers shall have the right to control any audit or determination by any
authority, to initiate any claim for returns or amended returns, to contest and
defend any assessment, notice or deficiency, or other adjustment or proposed
adjustment of Taxes; provided, however, that the Buyers shall promptly give
notice to the Sellers of the commencement of any audit or examination by any
Taxing Authority, shall provide the Sellers with copies of non-privileged
correspondence, records and other relevant documentation and shall consult with
the Sellers in good faith regarding all such proceedings before any Tax
Authority.
(e) Each indemnified party shall promptly notify AIMCO of its
assertion or surrender of any claim hereunder. Each indemnifying party shall
promptly notify AIMCO of its rejection or acceptance of liability for any claim
asserted hereunder. The arbitrator shall promptly notify AIMCO of its
determination with respect to any disputed claim hereunder.
8.4 TERMINATION OF INDEMNIFICATION. The obligations to indemnify and
hold harmless a party hereto, (a) pursuant to SECTION 8.1(a) and SECTION 8.2(a),
shall terminate when the applicable representation or warranty terminates
pursuant to SECTION 9.7 and (b) pursuant to SECTIONS 8.1(b), (c), AND (d), and
SECTIONS 8.2(b), (c) AND (d) shall not terminate; provided, however, that as to
clause (a) above such obligation to indemnify and hold harmless shall not
terminate with respect to any item as to which the person to be indemnified or
the related party thereto shall have, before the expiration of the applicable
period, previously made a claim by delivering a notice (stating in reasonable
detail the basis of such claim) to the indemnifying party.
8.5 EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. The sole and exclusive liability and
responsibility of the Sellers to the Buyers or of the Buyers to the Sellers
under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby (including without limitation, for any breach or inaccuracy of any
representation or warranty or for any breach of any covenant required to be
performed hereunder after the Closing Date), and, except as set forth in the
immediately following sentence, the sole and exclusive remedy of the Buyers or
the Sellers with respect to any of the foregoing, shall be as expressly set
forth in this Article VIII or any other indemnification provision set forth in
this Agreement and, except as provided in the immediately following sentence,
the Sellers and the Buyers hereby waive, release and agree not to assert (and
the Sellers (before the Closing) and the Buyers (after the Closing) shall cause
the Companies not to assert) any other remedy. Nothing in this SECTION 8.5
shall limit the Buyers or the Sellers in any way from exercising any rights or
securing any remedies in connection with this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby as a result of an intentional, willful or fraudulent breach
of any representation, warranty or covenant hereunder.
