PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made to be effective as of October

__, 2010, by ARCPA PROPERTIES LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), and UMH PROPERTIES, INC., a Maryland corporation (“Buyer”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein the parties hereto do hereby agree as provided in this Agreement. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms as set forth on Schedule 2 attached hereto.

ARTICLE 1 SALE OF PROPERTY

Seller agrees to sell, transfer and assign, and Buyer agrees to purchase, accept and assume, subject to the Permitted Exceptions and the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Property. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the Notes, the Recourse Notes (subject to Section 5.8 below) and the Homes shall be transferred to Buyer as part of the Transaction, subject to the terms of any agreement with any tenant relating to any Home(s). If the Property includes more than one Community: (a) the obligations of the individual Community owners comprising Seller shall be several (not joint and several) obligations, and no such individual Community owner shall be liable for any obligation of Seller hereunder relating to any Community other than the Community owned by such individual Community owner; and (b) references to the “Property” shall be interpreted as if followed by the words “or the applicable Community, as appropriate”; and (c) any termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever shall be a termination of this Agreement as to all Communities comprising the Property.

ARTICLE 2 PURCHASE

The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) to be paid by Buyer for the Property is Twenty-Five Million and no/100 dollars ($25,000,000.00). The Purchase Price shall be paid in the following manner:

2.1

Deposit Money. Buyer shall deposit earnest money as herein provided in the aggregate amount of $500,000.00 (together with all interest earned thereon, the “Deposit”). Within one (1) business day following the full and final execution of this Agreement and as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement, Buyer shall deposit $200,000.00 of the Deposit in immediately available funds with Escrow Agent. No later than one (1) business day following the expiration or earlier termination of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall deposit with the Escrow Agent the additional $300,000.00 of the Deposit in immediately available funds as an additional deposit. The Deposit shall be held and delivered by Escrow Agent in accordance with the provisions of Article 12. Any interest earned on the Deposit shall be considered a part of the Deposit. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Deposit shall be applied against the Purchase Price at Closing.

2.2

Cash at Closing. On the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the Purchase Price, subject to the prorations and adjustments set forth in Article 5 or as otherwise provided under this Agreement, plus any other amounts required to be paid by Buyer at Closing, in immediately available funds by wire transfer as more particularly set forth in Section 6.2.

EAST\43617630.13 10/29/10

ARTICLE 3 TITLE MATTERS

3.1

Title Defects.

3.1.1

Certain Exceptions to Title. Seller shall cause to be delivered to Buyer within twenty (20) days after the date of this Agreement the Title Commitment and Title Documents from the Title Company. Buyer shall have the right to object in writing to any title matters that are not Permitted Exceptions (herein collectively called the “Other Exceptions”) shown on the Title Commitment, Title Documents and Survey by written notice to Seller given no later than five (5) business days after the later of the delivery of the Title Commitment and the Title Documents, and to any Other Exceptions first appearing on any subsequent update to the Title Commitment, Title Documents or Survey within five (5) business days after Buyer obtains knowledge thereof or is Deemed to Know of their existence, but in any event no later than the Closing Date. Unless Buyer shall timely object to such Other Exceptions, all such Other Exceptions shall be deemed to constitute additional Permitted Exceptions. Any Other Exceptions that are timely objected to by Buyer shall be herein collectively called the “Title Objections.” Seller shall, at Closing, remove or cause to be removed any Title Objections to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Title Objections are (A) mortgage financing documentation, or (B) mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens and other liens evidencing monetary encumbrances (other than liens for non-delinquent general real estate taxes) which are removable by payment of liquidated and ascertainable amounts, or (C) liens created or suffered to exist by Seller or its agents and affiliates, but only to the extent such liens are not referenced in the Title Commitment, Title Documents or Survey (collectively, the “Required Clearance Exceptions”). In addition, Seller may elect (but shall not be obligated) to remove, or cause to be removed, at its expense, any other Title Objections. Seller shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing (not to exceed ninety (90) days) for the purpose of the removal of any Required Clearance Exceptions or other Title Objections, which removal will be deemed effected by the issuance of title insurance eliminating or insuring against the effect of the Title Objections. To the extent that the same do not constitute Required Clearance Exceptions, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing within five (5) business days after receipt of Buyer’s notice of Title Objections whether Seller elects to remove the same. If Seller is unable to remove or cause the Title Company to endorse over any Required Clearance Exceptions (after using reasonable efforts as provided in Section 9.2.5) or other Title Objections which Seller has elected to remove or cause the Title Company to endorse over prior to the Closing, or if Seller elects not to remove or cause the Title Company to endorse over one or more Title Objections that are not Required Clearance Exceptions, Buyer may elect to either (a) terminate this Agreement in its entirety by notice given to Seller (1) on the Closing Date if Seller is unable to remove or cause the Title Company to endorse over any such Title Objections, or (2) within five (5) days after notice from Seller of its election not to remove or to cause the Title Company to endorse over any such Title Objections, in either which event the Deposit shall be refunded to Buyer, and thereafter, the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, or (b) waive such Title Objections, in which event such Title Objections shall be deemed additional “Permitted Exceptions,” and the Closing shall occur as herein provided without any reduction of or credit against the Purchase Price.

3.1.2

Discharge of Title Objections. If on the Closing Date there are any Required Clearance Exceptions or any other Title Objections which Seller has elected to pay and discharge, Seller may use any portion of the Purchase Price to satisfy the same, provided Seller shall either (a) deliver to Buyer at the Closing instruments in recordable form sufficient to cause such Title Objections to be released of record, together with the cost of recording or filing

- 2-

EAST\43617630.13 10/29/10

such instruments, or (b) cause the Title Company to insure over the same, without any additional cost to Buyer, whether such insurance is made available in consideration of payment, bonding, indemnity of Seller or otherwise.

3.2

Title Insurance. At Closing, the Title Company shall issue to Buyer an Owner’s Form title insurance policy pursuant to the terms of the Title Commitment with Seller requirements satisfied as is customary in the state where the Property is located (collectively, the “Owner’s Title Policy”), in the amount of the Purchase Price, insuring that fee simple title to the Real Property is vested in Buyer, subject to the Permitted Exceptions. Buyer shall be entitled to request that the Title Company provide such endorsements or amendments to the Owner’s Title Policy and Survey as Buyer may reasonably require, provided that (a) such endorsements or amendments shall be at no cost to, and shall impose no additional liability on, Seller, and (b) Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement shall not be conditioned upon Buyer’s ability to obtain such endorsements or amendments and, if Buyer is unable to obtain such endorsements or amendments, Buyer shall nevertheless be obligated to proceed to close the Transaction without reduction of or set off against the Purchase Price, and (c) the Closing shall not be delayed as a result of any such requirements of Buyer.

ARTICLE 4 BUYER’S DUE DILIGENCE/CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY

4.1

Termination of Agreement During Due Diligence Period. If Buyer is not reasonably satisfied with the results of its Due Diligence during the Due Diligence Period, Buyer may terminate this Agreement in its entirety by written notice to Seller given in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.9 hereof at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. Central Time on the last day of the Due Diligence Period, and, in the event of such termination, neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any liability hereunder except for those obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled to the return of the Deposit. In the event Buyer fails to terminate this Agreement prior to 5:00 p.m. Central Time on the last day of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its rights to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Article 4.

4.2

Property Sold “As Is”.

(a)

Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Property is being sold, and Buyer shall accept possession of the Property on the Closing Date, “AS IS, WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS”, with no right of setoff or reduction in the Purchase Price; (ii) except for Seller’s Warranties, none of the Seller Parties have or shall be deemed to have made any verbal or written representations, warranties, promises or guarantees (whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise) to Buyer with respect to the Property, any matter set forth, contained or addressed in the Documents (including, but not limited to, the accuracy and completeness thereof) or the results of Buyer’s Due Diligence; and (iii) Buyer has confirmed independently all information that it considers material to its purchase of the Property or the Transaction. Buyer specifically acknowledges that, except for Seller’s Warranties, Buyer is not relying on (and Seller and each of the other Seller Parties does hereby disclaim and renounce) any representations or warranties of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether oral or written, express, implied, statutory or otherwise, from Seller or any other Seller Parties, as to any matter whatsoever. Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that, except for Seller’s Warranties, Seller is under no duty to make any affirmative disclosures or inquiry regarding any matter which may or may not be known to Seller or any of the other Seller Parties, and Buyer, for itself and for its successors and assigns, hereby expressly waives and releases Seller and each of the other Seller Parties from any such duty that otherwise might exist.

(b)

Any reports, repairs or work required by Buyer are the sole responsibility of Buyer, and Buyer agrees that there is no obligation on the part of Seller to make any changes, alterations

- 3-

EAST\43617630.13 10/29/10

or repairs to the Property or to cure any violations of Law or to comply with the requirements of any insurer.

(c)

Except as expressly provided hereinbelow in this Subsection (c), Buyer, for Buyer and Buyer’s successors and assigns, hereby releases Seller and each of the other Seller Parties from, and waives all claims and liability against Seller and each of the other Seller Parties for or attributable to, the following:

(i)

any and all statements or opinions heretofore or hereafter made, or information furnished, by the Seller Parties to Buyer or any of Buyer’s Representatives; and

(ii)

any and all losses, costs, claims, liabilities, expenses, demands or obligations of any kind or nature whatsoever attributable to the Property, whether arising or accruing before, on or after the Closing Date and whether attributable to events or circumstances which have heretofore or may hereafter occur, including, without limitation, all losses, costs, claims, liabilities, expenses, demands and obligations with respect to the structural, physical, and environmental condition of the Property;

(iii)

provided, however, that the release and waiver set forth in this Section 4.2(c) is not intended and shall not be construed to affect or impair any rights or remedies that Buyer may have under this Agreement against Seller as a result of a breach of any of Seller’s Warranties or of any covenant of Seller expressly set forth in this Agreement.

4.3

Buyer’s Reports. If Buyer shall terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Article 4 or if the Transaction shall otherwise not close as provided in this Agreement, upon Seller’s request, Buyer agrees to promptly deliver to Seller any and all third party reports prepared on behalf of Buyer in connection with the Transaction, whether or not such reports are in final form.

4.4

Survival. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of this Article 4 shall survive the Closing and shall not be merged therein.

ARTICLE 5 ADJUSTMENTS AND PRORATIONS

The following adjustments and prorations shall be made for each Community as of 11:59 p.m. on the Closing Date (the “Cut-Off Time”):

5.1

Lease Rentals and Other Revenues.

5.1.1

Definition of “Revenues”. For purposes of this Article 5, the term “Revenues” shall mean all rents due from the tenants under the Leases (including without limitation all pass-through payments due from tenants for utilities and trash collection and other services), and all other revenue derived from the Community, including payments to Seller or Seller Affiliates under the Notes and periodic payments to Seller under telephone and cable provision agreements and the like but excluding any payments previously made to Seller under such agreements (which payments shall be retained by Seller and not be subject to proration hereunder).

5.1.2

Revenues. Seller shall be entitled to all Revenues attributable to any period through the Cut-Off Time. Buyer shall be entitled to all Revenues attributable to any period after the Cut-Off Time. Prorations for Revenues shall be calculated and paid at Closing; provided that, with respect to Revenues that are delinquent as of the Cut-Off Time, there shall be a

- 4-

EAST\43617630.13 10/29/10

credit to Seller only for those Revenues that are delinquent for sixty (60) days or less as of the Cut-Off Time and no credit shall be provided to Seller for Revenues delinquent for more than sixty (60) days as of the Cut-Off Time. After Closing, Revenues shall not be subject to reproration and Buyer shall have an exclusive right to collect the sums due under the Leases.

5.2

Real Estate Taxes and Other Fees and Assessments. Real estate taxes, together with any other items listed on Exhibit O attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, assessed for the Tax Year in which Closing occurs shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days in such Tax Year, with Seller being responsible for that portion of such Tax Year occurring prior to the Cut-Off Time and Buyer being responsible for that portion of such Tax Year occurring after the Cut-Off Time. If, at Closing, the real estate tax rate and assessments have not been set for the Tax Year in which the Closing occurs, then the proration of such taxes shall be based upon the rate and assessments for the preceding Tax Year, and such proration shall be final. Seller shall pay all installments of special assessments due and payable on or before the Closing Date, and Buyer shall pay all installments of special assessments due and payable after the Closing Date; provided, however, that Seller shall not be required by the foregoing to pay any installments of special assessments which have not been confirmed or which relate to projects that have not been completed as of the date hereof.

5.3

Other Property Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the Property (including without limitation license and permit fees for assignable or transferable licenses and permits, if any) shall be prorated as of the Cut-Off Time. Seller shall pay all utility charges and other operating expenses attributable to the Property prior to the Cut-Off Time (except for those utility charges and operating expenses payable directly by tenants to the providers thereof), and Buyer shall pay all utility charges and other operating expenses attributable to the Property after the Cut-Off Time. Prorations for all items of Property operating expenses shall be calculated and paid at Closing. Following the Closing Date, (i) Buyer shall pay when due all invoices issued for Property operating expenses (except for invoices entirely attributable to the period prior to the Cut-Off Time, which shall be forwarded to Seller for payment), and (ii) Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other to effect the transfer of Property owner responsibilities under the Contracts, utility accounts and applicable licenses and permits. Seller shall not assign to Buyer any deposits which Seller has made with any of the utility services or companies servicing the Property, all of which, together with any amounts on deposit with governmental authorities in connection with development of or improvements to the Property, shall remain the property of Seller. Buyer shall arrange with such services and companies to have accounts opened in Buyer’s name beginning at the Cut-Off Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, with respect to any utility charges that are paid in arrears, the proration for such utilities shall be based upon the utility charges for the immediately preceding quarter (with reasonable adjustments for seasonality) and any such proration shall be final.

5.4

Tenant Deposits, Fees and Charges. At Closing, Seller shall give Buyer a credit against the Purchase Price in the aggregate amount of all cash security deposits reflected on the rent roll included in the Documents less any administrative or similar charges to which Seller may be entitled under applicable Law. Seller shall not assign to Buyer and shall retain any non-refundable deposits, fees or charges made by tenants, including without limitation cleaning fees, redecorating fees, administration fees, amenity fees and pet fees, and there shall be no proration of such items. Buyer shall notify tenants under the Leases as required by applicable Law, if any, of the transfer of the security deposits and Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any claims, demands, suits, damages and expenses related to such notice requirement. The obligation of Buyer under this Section 5.4 shall survive the Closing (and not be merged therein).

5.5

Closing Costs. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Section 5.5, Buyer shall pay all costs and expenses associated with the Transaction, including, without limitation, (a) all premiums

- 5-

EAST\43617630.13 10/29/10

and charges of the Title Company for any endorsements to the owner’s or lender’s policy of title insurance requested by Buyer or its lender, (b) the cost of any updates or revisions to the Survey required by Buyer, its lender or the Title Company, (c) all recording and filing charges in connection with the instrument by which Seller conveys the Property, (d) all escrow or closing charges, (e) all personal property or sales and use taxes due in connection with the Property and one half (½) of all transfer taxes, documentary stamp taxes and similar charges, if any, applicable to the transfer of the Property to Buyer (in all events regardless of which party may be obligated to pay such taxes by statute or ordinance), (f) all costs of Buyer’s Due Diligence, including fees due its consultants and attorneys, and (g) all lenders’ fees and charges related to any financing to be obtained by Buyer. Seller shall pay (i) all fees due its attorneys, (ii) the cost of the Survey (net of the cost of any updates or revisions to the Survey required by Buyer or its lender), (iii) the premium for owner’s policy of title insurance (and the title policy for Buyer’s lender, provided that issuance of Buyer’s lender’s policy of title insurance is at no cost and does not result in an increase in premium or charge for the owner’s policy of title insurance), (iv) all costs incurred in connection with causing the Title Company to remove any Required Clearance Exceptions or to remove any other Title Objections to the extent Seller elects to remove any such matter, (v) one half (½) of all transfer taxes, documentary stamp taxes and similar charges, if any, applicable to the transfer of the Property to Buyer, and (vi) any pre-payment penalties or defeasance costs associated with Seller’s existing financing. The obligations of the parties under this Section 5.5 shall survive the Closing (and not be merged therein) or any earlier termination of this Agreement.

5.6

Lease Expenses. Seller shall retain responsibility for and shall pay when and as due all lease or finder fees and commissions payable with respect to Leases to tenants whose move-in date occurred on or before the date of this Agreement. Buyer shall be responsible for and shall pay when and as due all lease or finder fees and commissions payable with respect to Leases to tenants whose move-in date occurred after the date of this Agreement.

5.7

Apportionment Credit. In the event the apportionments to be made at the Closing result in a credit balance (a) to Buyer, such sum shall be paid at the Closing by giving Buyer a credit against the Purchase Price in the amount of such credit balance, or (b) to Seller, Buyer shall pay the amount thereof to Seller at the Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts to be designated by Seller for the payment of the Purchase Price.

5.8

Recourse Notes. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the Purchase Price includes the assignment to Buyer at Closing of the Notes and the Recourse Notes. As of the date of this Agreement, the Recourse Notes are owned by 21^st Mortgage Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“21^st”) subject to and in accordance with the terms of either (x) a Loan Purchase Agreement (the “Loan Purchase Agreement”) dated September 24, 2010 between 21st and Enspire Finance, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (an affiliate of Seller) and joined by other affiliates of Seller, or (y) a Manufactured Home Dealer Agreement (the “Dealer Agreement”) dated January 12, 2010 between 21^st, ARC Dealership LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and ARC Real Estate, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (each, an affiliate of Seller). The Dealer Agreement and the Loan Purchase Agreements are referred to collectively as the “21^st Agreements”. Pursuant to the Loan Purchase Agreement, in connection with the sale of the Communities to Buyer, Seller or its affiliate may assign to Buyer (in which event Buyer shall assume) certain obligations of Seller or its affiliate under the Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to the Recourse Notes that are secured by liens on manufactured homes located at the Communities (as more specifically described in the Loan Purchase Agreement, the “Repossession Purchase Obligation”). The Dealer Agreement does not expressly provide a similar right of assignment. However, for purposes of this Agreement, the term Repossession Purchase Obligation shall include any obligation on the part of Seller or its affiliates to repurchase any of the Recourse Notes that are subject to the Dealer Agreement. On or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer and Seller shall each determine, in its respective sole

- 6-

EAST\43617630.13 10/29/10

and absolute discretion, whether or not the Transaction includes an assumption by Buyer of the Repossession Purchase Obligation of Seller and its affiliates with respect to the Recourse Notes. To that end, if either party so elects, Buyer and/or Seller shall each provide to the other written notice of such party’s election to include the assumption by Buyer of the Repossession Purchase Obligation as part of the Transaction (the “Assumption Notice”) on or before the end of the Due Diligence Period. If, prior to the end of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer and Seller send an Assumption Notice to one another, then Seller shall provide a credit to Buyer at Closing in the amount of $750,000 and Seller shall assign to Buyer and Buyer shall assume from Seller the Repossession Purchase Obligation with respect to the Recourse Notes and Seller shall not have any obligation to assign the Recourse Notes to Buyer at Closing. If, on the other hand, on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, either (A) Buyer and/or Seller provide written notice to the other party that no Assumption Notice will be provided, or (B) Buyer and/or Seller fail to deliver the Assumption Notice, then (1) the full Purchase Price shall be due at Closing without a $750,000 credit to Buyer, and (2) the Notes and the Recourse Notes shall be assigned by Seller to Buyer as contemplated by Section 6.3(f) of this Agreement without modification by this Section 5.8.

5.9

Sold Homes and Additional Homes. If any Home is sold in the ordinary course of business after the date hereof, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing in an amount equal to the net proceeds received by Seller or a Seller Affiliate from such sale; provided that no such credit shall be provided to Buyer in connection with the sale of a Home that is subject to a lease-to-own agreement. Buyer shall be responsible for the cost of (i) the manufactured homes set forth on Exhibit S attached hereto, and (ii) any manufactured homes acquired by Seller after the date of the preparation of Exhibit S attached hereto (as set forth on Exhibit S) (such homes referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Additional Homes”). At Closing, there shall be a credit to Seller for the cost of the Additional Homes, which shall include, without limitation, the purchase price, set price, and refurbishment expenses paid by Seller for such Additional Homes. Upon request, Seller shall provide reasonable evidence of such costs to Buyer.

ARTICLE 6 CLOSING

Buyer and Seller hereby agree that the Transaction shall be consummated as follows:

Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding Seller’s exercise of its right to extend the Closing as provided in Section 6.1 above, if, for any reason, Seller fails to obtain a release of the Property from the lien of Seller’s existing debt encumbering the Property for any reason, including Seller’s determination in its discretion that satisfying the conditions for obtaining a release would be economically unreasonable, Seller may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Buyer on or before the Closing, in which event this Agreement shall terminate in its entirety. Promptly following such termination, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for Buyer’s actual, reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in the performance of this Agreement in an aggregate amount not to exceed $25,000.00. For purposes hereof, satisfying the conditions for obtaining a release of the lien of Seller’s existing debt from the Property shall be deemed to be economically unreasonable if such conditions would require Seller to pay its lender (or servicer) in excess of the Purchase Price in order to obtain the release. Seller and Buyer expressly acknowledge that a breach of Seller’s Warranties arising prior to the Closing Date shall not constitute a “default” for purposes of this Section 10.2 and that the consequences of any such breach shall be governed by Section 8.3.3, to the extent applicable, and by Section 8.3.5 and Section 9.2.5 above.

10.3

Post-Closing Defaults. The provisions of Sections 10.1 and 10.2 above are not intended to limit the parties’ respective rights and remedies for defaults that arise after Closing, including without limitation any breach of Seller’s Warranties first discovered post-closing, provided that all such rights

- 17-

EAST\43617630.13 10/29/10

and remedies shall be subject to and limited by the provisions of Section 8.3.6 and Section 13.15. Subject to said Sections 8.3.6 and 13.15, the provisions of this Section 10.3 shall survive Closing and not be merged therein.

ARTICLE 11 CONDEMNATION/CASUALTY

11.1

Condemnation.

11.1.1

Right to Terminate. If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any significant portion (as hereinafter defined) of a Community is taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending taking in which Seller has been served with legal process, but which has not yet been consummated), Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of such fact promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof, and, thereafter, either Buyer or Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety by giving written notice to the other no later than ten (10) days after the giving of Seller’s notice, and the Closing Date shall be extended, if necessary, to provide sufficient time for Buyer or Seller to make such election. The failure by Buyer and Seller to so elect in writing to terminate this Agreement within such ten (10) day period shall be deemed an election not to terminate this Agreement. For purposes hereof, a “significant portion” of a Community shall mean any interest in a Community except a de minimis interest the taking of which has no material effect on the use or operation of such Community.

11.1.2

Assignment of Proceeds. If (a) neither Seller nor Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid if all or any significant portion of the Property is taken, or (b) a portion of the Property not constituting a significant portion of the Property is taken or becomes subject to a pending taking by eminent domain, there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price; provided, however, that, at the Closing, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of any award for or other proceeds on account of such taking which have been actually paid to Seller prior to the Closing Date as a result of such taking (less all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by Seller as of the Closing Date in obtaining payment of such award or proceeds) and, to the extent such award or proceeds have not been paid, Seller shall assign to Buyer at the Closing (without recourse to Seller) the rights of Seller to, and Buyer shall be entitled to receive and retain, all awards for the taking of the Property or such portion thereof.

11.2

Destruction or Damage. In the event any portion of a Community is damaged or destroyed by casualty prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of such fact promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof. If any such damage or destruction (1) (a) is an insured casualty and (b) would cost less than ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price of the Property to repair or restore, or (2) (x) is an uninsured casualty and (y) would cost less than ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price of the Property to repair or restore and Seller elects, in its discretion, by written notice to Buyer to repair or restore the damage or destruction prior to the Closing Date (which shall be extended, if necessary, to provide sufficient time for Seller to perform such repairs or restoration) (those matters described in (1) or (2) above are referred to herein as a “Non-Material Casualty”), then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Buyer shall acquire the Property upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. In the event of a Non-Material Casualty described in (1) above, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price equal to the deductible amount applicable under Seller’s casualty policy less all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by Seller as of the Closing Date in connection with the negotiation and/or settlement of the casualty claim with the insurer (the “Realization Costs”), and Seller shall assign to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all proceeds of insurance on account of such damage or destruction. In the event a Community is damaged or destroyed prior to the Closing Date by a casualty that is not a Non-Material

- 18-

EAST\43617630.13 10/29/10

Casualty (i.e. a matter that is not described in either (1) or (2) above), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this section, Buyer shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this Agreement in its entirety. Buyer shall have thirty (30) days after Seller notifies Buyer that a casualty has occurred to make such election by delivery to Seller of a written election notice (the “Election Notice”), and the Closing Date shall be extended, if necessary, to provide sufficient time for Buyer to make such election. The failure by Buyer to deliver the Election Notice within such thirty (30) day period shall be deemed an election not to terminate this Agreement. In the event Buyer elects not to terminate this Agreement as set forth above, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, Seller shall assign to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to any and all proceeds of insurance on account of such damage or destruction, if any, and, if the casualty was an insured casualty, Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price equal to the deductible or self-insured amount (less the Realization Costs) under Seller’s casualty insurance policy.

11.3

Insurance. Seller shall maintain the property insurance coverage currently in effect for the Property through the Closing Date.

11.4

Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.1 or Section 11.2, the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer. Upon such refund, this Agreement shall terminate in its entirety and neither party to this Agreement shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder other than any arising under any section herein which expressly provides that it shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

11.5

Waiver. The provisions of this Article 11 supersede the provisions of any applicable Laws with respect to the subject matter of this Article 11.

ARTICLE 12 ESCROW

The Deposit and any other sums which the parties agree shall be held in escrow (herein collectively called the “Escrow Deposits”), together with all interest earned thereon, shall be held by the Escrow Agent, in trust, and disposed of only in accordance with the following provisions:

12.1

Investment of Escrow Deposits. The Escrow Agent shall invest the Escrow Deposits in government insured interest-bearing instruments satisfactory to both Buyer and Seller, shall not commingle the Escrow Deposits with any funds of the Escrow Agent or others, and shall promptly provide Buyer and Seller with confirmation of the investments made.

12.2.1

If for any reason the Closing does not occur, the Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrow Deposits and/or all interest earned thereon to Seller or Buyer only upon receipt of a written demand therefor from such party, subject to the following provisions of this Section 12.2.2. If for any reason the Closing does not occur and either party makes a written demand upon the Escrow Agent for payment of the Escrow Deposits or the interest earned thereon, the Escrow Agent shall give written notice to the other party of such demand. If the Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection from the other party to the proposed payment within ten (10) days after the giving of such notice or in the event that Escrow Agent receives a demand from both Buyer and Seller in the first instance, the Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to make such payment. If the Escrow Agent does receive such written objection within such period, the Escrow Agent shall continue to hold

- 19-

EAST\43617630.13 10/29/10

such amount until otherwise directed by written instructions signed by Seller and Buyer or a final judgment of a court.

12.3

Escrow Agent as Stakeholder. The parties acknowledge that the Escrow Agent is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that the Escrow Agent shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any loss, cost or expense incurred by Seller or Buyer resulting from the Escrow Agent’s mistake of law respecting the Escrow Agent’s scope or nature of its duties. Seller and Buyer shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against all Losses incurred in connection with the performance of the Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by the Escrow Agent in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of the Escrow Agent.

12.4

Income Taxes on Escrow Deposits. Buyer shall pay any income taxes on any interest earned on the Escrow Deposits. Buyer represents and warrants to the Escrow Agent that its taxpayer identification number is 22-1890929.

12.5

Upon receipt of the Escrow Deposits, the Escrow Agent shall promptly acknowledge to Seller and Buyer in writing receipt thereof.

12.6

Interest on Deposit. As set forth in Section 2.1 hereof, any interest earned on the Deposit shall be considered a part of the Deposit; provided, however, that if Closing does not occur for any reason other than a Buyer default, all interest earned on the Deposit shall be credited to Buyer; further provided, however, that such earned interest shall be delivered to Buyer by the Escrow Agent, if at all, in accordance with the terms of Section 12.2.2 hereof.

ARTICLE 13 MISCELLANEOUS

Assignment. Buyer shall not assign this Agreement or its rights hereunder to any individual or entity, except a wholly owned subsidiary of Buyer, without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent Seller may grant or withhold in its sole discretion, and any such assignment without Seller’s consent shall be null and void ab initio. In the event of any permitted assignment by Buyer, any assignee shall assume any and all obligations and liabilities of Buyer under this Agreement but, notwithstanding such assumption, Buyer shall continue to be liable hereunder.

13.2

To inform the transferee that withholding of tax is not required upon the disposition of a United States real property interest by ___________________________________________, a ______________________ (“Seller”), the undersigned hereby certifies the following on behalf of Seller:

Seller is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations); and

Seller is not a disregarded entity as defined in Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Income Tax Regulations.

Seller’s U.S. employer tax identification number is __________; and

Seller’s office address is ____________________________________________.

Seller understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by transferee and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

The undersigned declares that she/he has examined this certification and to the best of her/his knowledge and belief it is true, correct and complete, and she/he further declares that she/he has authority to sign this document on behalf of Seller.
