The APFC Member is under no duty to visit any portion of the Properties or to supervise or observe construction, remediation or other activity or to examine any books or records. No site visit, observation or examination by the APFC Member, its

ARTICLE 4
CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

Section 4.1. Initial Capital Contributions . The American Member shall fund an initial Capital Contribution in an amount equal to Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), and the APFC Member shall fund an initial Capital Contribution in an amount equal to Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000). The Members shall contribute the amount of their initial Capital Contributions, in immediately available funds, by depositing such Capital Contributions in the Capital Expenditures Account on or about the date of this Agreement (or at such other time as is agreed to by the Members). Manager shall only use the Capital Contributions for Property Acquisition and Renovation Costs (and, to the extent necessary, to fund Reserves) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Annual Business Plan and Budget.

Section 4.2. Additional Capital Contributions .

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(c) , and during the Investment Period, Manager shall by delivery of written notice to the American Member and the APFC Member (a “Capital Call” ), request that such Members contribute capital to the Company to acquire Properties in accordance with the Approved Business Plan and Budget and to fund other Property Acquisition and Renovation Cost (and, to the extent necessary, to fund Reserves). Manager may issue a final Capital Call (the “ Balancing Capital Call ”) on or immediately prior to the expiration of the Investment Period to make the Special Balancing Distribution under Section 6.5(a) if the Excess Funds (as defined in Section 6.5(a) ) then held by the Company are not adequate to make the Special Balancing Distribution, such that after the making of the Special Balancing Distribution, the Capital Contributions made by the Members are in proportion to the Member’s Capital Ratios. Each Capital Call delivered pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) shall set forth (1) the Capital Contributions requested, which shall be not less than Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000), in the aggregate, unless otherwise approved by the Executive Committee — other than the Balancing Capital Call which may be less than Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000)), and which shall be in the Capital Ratios, (2) the date on which the Capital Contribution is due (which date shall be not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date of receipt of the Capital Call), (3) the items to which such Capital Call relate (which may be in general terms), (4) a reconciliation as to the manner in which all prior Capital Contributions funded by the Members have been used (including, without limitation, a list identifying the Properties acquired by the Company), and (5) a certificate signed by Manager wherein Manager certifies that the General Capital Contribution Conditions are satisfied. After the occurrence of an Event of Default on the part of Manager (or an event that would constitute an Event of Default with notice or the passage of time) or prior to the resolution of any dispute as to whether an Event of Default exists (in the event that such Event of Default is disputed as provided in Section 11.2(g) ), Manager shall not deliver any Capital Calls without the approval of the APFC Member, and any unfunded Capital Calls previously delivered by Manager shall be terminated (or suspended until such time as it is determined that an Event of Default did not occur on the part of Manager). Prior to the funding of a pending Capital Call, Manager shall not issue a subsequent Capital Call. The APFC Member acknowledges and agrees that at the time of a Capital Call, the Company will not likely have identified the residential properties to be acquired with the proceeds from the Capital Call and, as a result, the Capital Call will likely

represent an estimate of the cost of acquiring residential properties within a reasonable period following the Capital Call (not to exceed sixty (60) days).

(b) In connection with any Capital Call described in Section 4.2(a) , and subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(c) , the Members shall contribute the amount of the Capital Contributions requested therein, in immediately available funds, by depositing the Capital Contributions in the Capital Expenditures Account prior to the date set forth in the Capital Call due (which date shall be not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date of receipt of the Capital Call). Manager shall only use the Capital Contributions strictly for Property Acquisition and Renovation Costs (and, to the extent necessary, to fund Reserves) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Annual Business Plan and Budget.

(c) The Members’ obligations to make Capital Contributions shall be subject to the following limitation: (i) the Members shall not be required to make any Capital Contribution if such Capital Contribution when added to the prior Capital Contributions funded by the Members (including, the initial Capital Contributions under Section 4.1 ) would cause the aggregate Capital Contributions funded by such Member and Default Loans made by such Member to exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) in the case of the American Member and Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000) in the case of the APFC Member; provided, however, that (A) upon the approval of the Executive Committee, such maximum amounts may be increased to Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000) in the case of the American Member and One Hundred Sixty Million Dollars ($160,000,000) in the case of the APFC Member and (B) upon the further approval of the Executive Committee, such maximum amounts may thereafter be increased to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) in the case of the American Member and Four Hundred Million Dollars ($400,000,000) in the case of the APFC Member (in each case, as and to the extent of any such approval by the Executive Committee, the “ Maximum Capital Commitment” ), (ii) the Members shall not be required to make any Capital Contribution after the Investment Period has expired or been terminated, (iii) the Members shall not be required to fund any Capital Contributions at any time that the General Capital Contribution Conditions are not satisfied, and (iv) after the initial Capital Contribution, a Member shall not be required to make any additional Capital Contributions if the other Member has failed to satisfy a prior Capital Call.

Section 4.3. Intentionally Omitted.

Section 4.4. Financing .

(a) Any Member or Affiliate may (but shall not be obligated to) at any time lend money or guaranty a loan to the Company to finance Company operations, to finance or refinance any asset of the Company, to pay the debts and obligations of the Company, or for any other Company purpose; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default Loan or Priority Loan, such Member or Affiliate must first obtain the prior written approval of the Executive Committee prior to making such loan or guaranty. In no event will the APFC Member be required to provide any guaranties or indemnity agreements with respect to any loan or financing obtained by the Company.

(b) The Members do not anticipate obtaining financing for the Company as of the Effective Date. Unless the Executive Committee expressly approves such financing in writing, the Company shall not obtain any financing, issue any guaranties or encumber any of the Properties to secure any financing.

(c) If (i) the Company has insufficient funds to complete the purchase of Properties as contemplated by the Annual Business Plan and Budget, (ii) Manager has issued a Capital Call, (iii) the APFC Member has not funded the Capital Contribution, and (iv) the APFC Member has not notified the American Member in writing that the APFC Member is not funding such Capital Contribution due to a failure of the General Capital Contribution Conditions, the American Member may advance funds to the Company to the extent such funds are reasonably necessary to complete such purchases provided that the amount advanced does not exceed the amount set forth in the pending Capital Call. Any such advanced amounts shall be deemed a “Priority Loan” to the Company. The Priority Loan shall not bear interest. The Priority Loan shall be repaid by the Company to the American Member upon receipt of the subsequent Capital Contribution from the APFC Member. If the conditions to the funding of such Capital Contribution have been satisfied and the APFC Member does not timely fund such Capital Contribution (taking into account any cure periods), any outstanding Priority Loan shall be deemed to have become a Default Loan. The Priority Loan shall not be considered a Capital Contribution by the American Member (and the American Member’s Book Capital Account shall not be increased by reason thereof), and the repayment of the Priority Loan shall not constitute a distribution hereunder (and the American Member’s Book Capital Account shall not be decreased by reason thereof), and the making or payment of the Priority Loan shall not be considered for purposes of determining the IRR of any Member hereunder.

Section 4.5. Defaulting Contribution . Subject to Section 4.2(c), if the American Member or the APFC Member fails to make all or any portion of an additional Capital Contribution required hereunder, and such failure remains uncured for ten (10) Business Days after notice from the Company of such failure, the non-defaulting Member may, but shall not be obligated to, make a Default Loan for all or a portion of any amount in default within twenty (20) Business Days after the expiration of such cure period by depositing the proceeds of such Default Loan into the Capital Expenditures Account. In the event that the defaulting Member fails to make all or any portion of an additional Capital Contribution required pursuant to Section 4.2 after the termination of the cure period described in this Section 4.5 , then, the Investment Period shall terminate, the non-defaulting Member shall not be obligated to make any additional Capital Contributions to the Company and, in the case of a default by the APFC Member, the restrictions set forth in Section 13.1(a) of this Agreement shall not apply from and after the termination of such cure period, the American Member, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may make a Default Loan and/or liquidate the Company.

Section 4.6. Default Loans Generally.

(a) Each Default Loan shall be a loan to the Company and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. From and after the date any Default Loan is made, no distributions shall be made pursuant to Article 6 until each Default Loan is repaid in full, and all amounts that would otherwise be distributed pursuant to Article 6 shall instead be paid by the Company to the extent of any outstanding amounts under such Default Loan.

The Member making a Default Loan shall not be deemed to have made any Capital Contribution as the result of making a Default Loan. The repayment of a Default Loan and payment or reimbursement of any interest or expenses thereunder shall not constitute a return of Capital Contributions and shall not be considered for purposes of determining the IRR of any Member hereunder.

(b) If a defaulting Member subsequently pays to the Company the amount represented by a Default Loan, the Company shall promptly pay any portion of the Default Loan that remains unpaid to the Member which made the Default Loan, and any unpaid portion of the Default Loan (representing any unreturned portion of the Default Loan) shall be paid from Operating Cash or Capital Proceeds as provided in Section 4.4(b) when distributed under Section 6.2 or 6.3 .

Section 4.7. Timing of Capital Calls . Manager shall act reasonably when issuing Capital Calls to effectively and reasonably manage the amount of unused funds that the Company maintains in the Capital Expenditures Account and the Operating Account during the Investment Period.

Section 4.8. Intentionally Omitted.

Section 4.9. Additional Capita l . Other than as set forth in this Article 4 , the Members shall not have any obligation to make additional Capital Contributions except to the extent that all Members agree in writing that such additional Capital Contributions shall be made and at such time as agreed to by all Members.

ARTICLE 5
ALLOCATIONS AND OTHER INCOME TAX MATTERS

Section 5.1. Allocations and Related Income Tax Matters . In addition to the provisions of this Article 5, the agreement of the Members concerning the maintenance of capital accounts, allocations, and other income tax matters is set forth in Appendix “A”, attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “ Tax Appendix ”).

Section 5.2. Tax Returns . The following elections shall be made on the appropriate returns of the Company:

(a) to adopt the calendar year as the Fiscal Year, except when another Fiscal Year may be required by the Code;

(b) if there is a distribution of Company property as described in Section 734 of the Code or if there is a transfer of a Company interest as described in Section 743 of the Code, upon written request of any Member, to elect, pursuant to Section 754 of the Code, to adjust the basis of Company properties; and

(c) to amortize the organizational expenses of the Company ratably over a period of fifteen (15) years or as otherwise permitted by Section 709(b) of the Code.

No election shall be made by the Company or any Member to be excluded from the application of the provisions of subchapter K of chapter 1 of subtitle A of the Code or any similar provisions of applicable state laws.

Section 5.3. No Deficit Restoration . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Member having a negative balance in its Book Capital Account shall have any obligation to the Company or to any other Member to restore its Book Capital Account to zero.

ARTICLE 6
DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 6.1. Distributions in General . To the maximum extent permitted by the Act and except as otherwise provided in this Article 6 or as agreed by the Executive Committee, the Company shall distribute all Operating Cash for each month to the Members by the tenth (10th) day of the subsequent month, and shall distribute Capital Proceeds to the Members as soon as reasonably practicable after its receipt of such amounts (but in no event less than ten (10) days after the receipt thereof) unless reinvestment of such Capital Proceeds has been approved by each Member in writing; provided, that such distributions of Operating Cash may be based on a reasonable and good faith estimate of Operating Cash for such month, in which case such estimate shall be reconciled with the actual Operating Cash for such month prior to the tenth (10th) day of the month subsequent to such distribution, and Operating Cash (whether actual or estimated) distributed to the Members in such subsequent month shall be adjusted to reflect the actual Operating Cash for such prior month and provided further that there shall be no distributions of Operating Cash until after the expiration of the Investment Period. To the extent permitted by the Act and approved by the Executive Committee, the Company may make additional distributions to Members at any time. All distributions shall be made concurrently to all Members on the date set for purposes of such distribution. Prior to making any distribution of Capital Proceeds, Manager shall deliver to the Members a report showing the relative distributions to be made to the Members based on each Member’s Capital Contributions and the then available Capital Proceeds. If a Member disagrees with the amount of distributions payable to such Member, such Member shall notify Manager, and Manager shall engage the Company’s accountant to verify the methodology and that the distribution is then permitted under the terms of this Agreement.

Section 6.2. Distributions of Operating Cash .

Operating Cash shall be distributed to the Members, pro rata based on the Members’ respective Capital Ratios, except that no Operating Cash shall be distributed to the Members until all Default Loans and Priority Loans are paid in full.

Section 6.3. Distributions of Capital Proceeds . Subject to the prior repayment of any outstanding amounts under any Default Loan and Priority Loans and subject to obtaining the approval of the Executive Committee under Section 7.6(l) , Capital Proceeds shall be distributed to the Members as follows:

(1) First, to the Members, pro rata based on the Members’ respective Capital Ratios, until each Member has received an amount which, when added to all prior

distributions of Capital Proceeds to such Member pursuant to this clause (1) , equals One Hundred Percent (100%) of its aggregate Capital Contributions;

(2) Second, to the Members, pro rata based on the Members’ respective Capital Ratios, until the APFC Member has received an amount pursuant to Sections 6.2 and 6.3(1) and this Section 6.3(2) necessary to provide the APFC Member with a ten percent (10%) Internal Rate of Return;

(3) Third, seventy percent (70%) to the APFC Member and thirty percent (30%) to the American Member until the APFC Member has received an amount pursuant to Sections 6.2 , 6.3(1) and 6.3(2) and this Section 6.3(3) necessary to provide the APFC Member with a fifteen percent (15%) Internal Rate of Return; and

(4) Finally, fifty percent (50%) to the APFC Member and fifty percent (50%) to the American Member.

Section 6.4. Adjustment to Distributions of Capital Proceeds in Certain Circumstances . It is intended that the APFC will not be in a worse position by reason of the fact that Capital Contributions are made after distributions under Sections 6.3(3) and 6.3(4) , and the Members acknowledge and agree that all Capital Proceeds to be distributed under Section 6.3 are intended to be calculated in the aggregate with respect to the sale or other disposition of the Properties as if the aggregate amount of all such Capital Proceeds that has at any time been distributed or is at any time to be distributed was distributed to the Members pursuant to a single distribution in accordance with Section 6.3 , such that (i) no Capital Proceeds distributed to the Members pursuant to Section 6.3(3) unless and until all distributions required to then be made pursuant to Sections 6.3(1) and 6.3(2) have already been made, and (ii) no Capital Proceeds are distributed to the Members pursuant to Section 6.3(4) unless and until all distributions required to then be made pursuant to Sections 6.3(1) , 6.3(2) and 6.3(3) have already been made. In order to achieve the foregoing, the Members hereby agree that, from time to time, upon the occurrence of each and every distribution under Section 6.3 or upon the APFC Member’s request (each such date is hereinafter referred to as a “ True Up Date ”), Manager shall prepare for the APFC Member’s approval a model of all contributions made to, and distributions of Capital Proceeds and Operating Cash made by, the Company through and including the True Up Date (assuming that any Capital Proceeds that is to then be distributed is paid on the date of such calculation) to determine whether the aggregate distributions received by the American Member are in excess of those distributions that the American Member would have received had all of the Capital Proceeds been distributed to the Members as provided in the model pursuant to a single distribution (rather than periodically during the term of the Company) (the amount of the American Member’s excess distributions are herein referred to as the “ Excess Distributions ”). Manager shall incorporate any comments provided by the APFC Member with respect to the model. If the Members determine that American Member has received Excess Distributions, (a) the Company shall distribute any subsequent Operating Cash and Capital Proceeds which would normally be paid to the American Member to the APFC Member to achieve the intent described in this Section 6.4 and the results provided in the model, and (b) to the extent that the Capital Proceeds to be distributed by the Company on such True Up Date will not compensate the APFC Member in a manner consistent with the model, the American Member shall return to

the Company any distributions received by the American Member from the Company so that the Company may distribute such Excess Distributions to the Members in a manner to achieve the intent described in this Section 6.4 and the results provided in the model. The American Member’s return of distributions required under this Section 6.4 shall not constitute a contribution to the Company by the American Member, and in no event shall the American Member be entitled to any recoupment of, or credit for, any such payment; provided, however, that the American Member shall be entitled to receive distributions of Capital Proceeds computed on the True Up Date in accordance with Section 6.3 .

Section 6.5. Special Distribution .

(a) Upon the expiration of the Investment Period, subject to retaining the Reserves approved by the Executive Committee under Section 7.6(d) , any and all amounts then in the Capital Expenditures Account less any Reserves (the amount in excess of the Reserves is referred to herein as the “ Excess Funds ”) shall be distributed to the Members as a return of capital (the “ Special Balancing Distribution ”), such that after the making of the Special Balancing Distribution, the Capital Contributions made by the Members are in proportion to the Member’s Capital Ratios. For purposes herein, the Special Balancing Distribution shall be deemed to have been distributed to the Members receiving a share of such distribution as a not pro rata distribution to each such Member pursuant to Section 6.3(1) hereof (and each such Member’s Book Capital Account shall be reduced by an amount equal to its share of the Special Balancing Distribution). The Special Balancing Distribution shall be a return of capital, and when making the Special Balancing Distribution, no consideration shall be given to the timing of when the Capital Contributions were made ( i.e. , a Member shall not be entitled to a greater distribution because Capital Contributions were made earlier in time). By way of example only, if, upon the expiration of the Investment Period, (a) the American Member has made Capital Contributions in an amount equal to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000), (b) the APFC Member has made Capital Contributions in an amount equal to Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000), (c) an amount equal to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) has not been used and remains on deposit in the Capital Expenditures Account at the end of the Investment Period, and (d) the Reserves equal Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000), then the remaining Eighty Million Dollars ($80,000,000) of Excess Funds shall be distributed as the Special Balancing Distribution as follows: Fifty-Six Million Dollars ($56,000,000) to the American Member and Twenty-Four Million Dollars ($24,000,000) to the APFC Member, such that after the Special Balancing Distribution, the amount of Capital Contributions made by the American Member will equal Forty-Four Million Dollars ($44,000,000) ( i.e. , twenty percent (20%) of the total Capital Contributions of Two Hundred Twenty Million Dollars ($220,000,000)) and the amount of Capital Contributions made by the APFC Member will equal One Hundred Seventy-Six Million Dollars ($176,000,000) ( i.e. , eighty percent (80%) of the total Capital Contributions of Two Hundred Twenty Million Dollars ($220,000,000)). Likewise, if the American Member has contributed One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) and the APFC Member has contributed its maximum commitment amount of Four Hundred Million Dollars ($400,000,000), the amounts remaining in the Capital Expenditures Account shall be distributed to the Members pro rata in accordance with their respective Capital Ratios.

(b) If, and only if, all of the following events have occurred (the “ Default Balancing Events ”), the provisions of this Section 6.5(b) shall be implemented:

(i) The Investment Period has expired or been terminated;

(ii) Either the APFC Member or the American Member has funded Capital Contributions in an amount less than its respective Maximum Capital Commitment;

(iii) Prior to the end of the Investment Period, Manager issued a Capital Call to the Members;

(iv) An Event of Default has occurred on the part of one of the Members based on such Member’s failure to fund a Capital Call which was duly issued by Manager; and

(v) The Company did not have sufficient Excess Funds to make the Special Balancing Distribution, such that after the making of the Special Balancing Distribution under Section 6.5(a) , the Capital Contributions made by the Members were in proportion to the Member’s Capital Ratios.

If all of the Default Balancing Events have occurred, then a portion of the Capital Contributions made by the non-defaulting Member shall be converted to a Default Loan. The portion of the Capital Contributions made by the non-defaulting Member to be converted to a Default Loan shall be calculated after making the Special Balancing Distribution under Section 6.5(a) and shall be an amount equal to (such amount is referred to herein as the “ Converted Capital Amount ”): (A) the total Capital Contributions made by the non-defaulting Member (after deducting the distribution of the Special Balancing Distribution), less (B)(1) twenty-five percent (25%) of the total Capital Contributions made by the APFC Member if the APFC Member is the defaulting Member or (seventy-five percent (75%) of the total Contributions made by the American Member if the American Member is the defaulting Member. For purposes herein, the Converted Capital Amount shall be deemed to have been distributed to the defaulting Member (and the defaulting Member’s Book Capital Account shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Converted Capital Amount), and the non-defaulting Member shall be deemed to have concurrently made a Default Loan to the Company in an amount equal to the Converted Capital Amount. By way of example only, if, upon the expiration of the Investment Period, (a) the American Member has made Capital Contributions in an amount equal to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000), (b) the APFC Member has made Capital Contributions in an amount equal to Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000), (c) an amount equal to Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) remains as Excess Funds, and (d) prior to the expiration of the Investment Period, Manager issued a Capital Call in an amount equal to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) which the APFC Member failed to fund even though the General Capital Contribution Conditions had been satisfied, then the Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) of Excess Funds shall be distributed to the American Member as the Special Balancing Distribution, and since (w) after the Special Balancing Distribution, the Capital Contributions made by the Members will not be in proportion to the Member’s Capital Ratios ( i.e., Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000) for the APFC Member, and Eighty Million Dollars ($80,000,000) for the American Member), (x) an Event of Default on the part of the APFC Member had occurred, and (y) no other Excess Funds are available to be distributed, the Converted Capital Amount shall be an amount equal to Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000) ( i.e. , $80,000,000 less 25% of $200,000,000), and the American Member shall be deemed to have received a Distribution in an amount equal to the Converted Capital Amount and made

a Default Loan in an amount equal to the Converted Capital Amount. Thereafter, the Company’s Two Hundred Eighty Million Dollars ($280,000,000) would have been funded by the following combination of Capital Contributions and Default Loans: (i) the APFC Member would have made Capital Contributions of Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000), (ii) the American Member would have made Capital Contributions of Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000), and (iii) the American Member would have made a Default Loan of Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000).

Section 6.6. Amounts Withheld . The Manager is authorized to withhold from distributions, or with respect to allocations, to the Members and to pay over to any foreign, federal, state, or local government any amounts which it reasonably determines may be required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any other foreign, federal, state or local tax law. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any foreign, federal, state or local tax law with respect to any allocation or distribution to any Member shall be treated as amounts distributed to such Member pursuant to this Article 6 for all purposes under this Agreement. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 6.6 , the Manager shall not withhold any amount on the part of the APFC Member. If the Company, the Manager or the Tax Matters Partner receives written notice from any Governmental Authority that amounts are to be withheld on behalf of the APFC Member, the Manager shall notify the APFC Member prior to withholding any amounts with respect to any Governmental Authority and provide the APFC Member with a reasonable opportunity to establish its exemption from any applicable withholding requirements. If, notwithstanding the receipt by the Company the Manager or the Tax Matters Partner of such written notice, the APFC Member instructs the Company and the Manager not to withhold because the APFC Member disagrees with such written notice, the Manager shall comply with the APFC Member so long as neither the Company nor the Members (in the capacity as Member, Manager or Tax Matters Partner), in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel to the Company, is subject to any liability or criminal charges by complying with the APFC Member’s instruction (other than fees and penalties which would be the responsibility of the APFC Member).

Section 6.7. Distributions in Kind . No distributions of assets other than cash shall be made without the consent of each Member. If all of the Members consent to an in kind distribution, such assets shall be deemed to be equal to their fair market value as reasonably determined by the Members.

Section 6.8. Dissolution . Upon dissolution and winding up of the Company, the Company shall make distributions in accordance with Section 12.4 .

Section 6.9. Limitation on Distributions . Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company, and Manager on behalf of the Company, shall not make a distribution to any Member on account of its interest in the Company to the extent (if any) that such distribution would violate the Act or other applicable law.

Section 6.10. Cash Management; Company Accounts .

(a) The Company shall establish an operating account (the “ Operating Account ”) for the Company and each Subsidiary under the control of Manager at a depository institution

designated by Manager and approved by the APFC Member. All Operating Income from a Property shall be deposited into the Operating Account held by the Subsidiary which owns that Property, and thereafter, subject to any approved Reserves, transferred to the Operating Account in the Company’s name. Funds deposited in the Operating Account shall be used solely for the payment of Operating Expenses and for the funding of disbursements of Operating Cash as and when provided in Section 6.2 . The funds held in Operating Accounts in the name of Subsidiaries shall be used solely for such Subsidiary until transferred to the Owner’s Operating Account. All permitted Reserves for the payment of Operating Expenses shall be deposited and held in the Operating Account.

(b) In addition to the above-referenced account, the Company shall establish a capital expenditures account (the “ Capital Expenditures Account ”) for the Company under the control of Manager at a depository institution designated by Manager and approved by the APFC Member. All Capital Contributions and any and all Capital Proceeds, less any Capital Expenditures paid directly therefrom, shall be deposited into the Capital Expenditures Account. The cost of the Property Acquisition and Renovation Costs shall be paid out of the Capital Expenditures Account (which may first be deposited in the capital expenditures account held by the Subsidiaries described below). The Company may also maintain a capital expenditures account for each Subsidiary to pay the Acquisition and Renovation Costs relating to the Properties owned by such Subsidiary and to deposit any Capital Proceeds relating to Capital Transactions pertaining to the Properties owned by such Subsidiary. Manager shall use Due Care to manage the cash deposited in the Subsidiary’s capital expenditure account such that (A) the funds deposited therein shall be solely funded from the Capital Expenditures Account and Capital Transactions relating to Properties owned by such Subsidiary, and (B) all funds received or held in such Subsidiary’s capital expenditure account which are not necessary in the near future to pay Acquisition and Renovation Costs shall be promptly transferred to the Capital Expenditures Account, less any approved Reserves.

(c) Other than the Capital Expenditures Account, the Operating Account and account(s) which will hold all refundable tenant security deposits (to the extent required by applicable law or otherwise determined by the Executive Committee), the Company shall maintain only such other checking and savings accounts as Manager shall designate and as are approved in writing by the APFC Member. All funds of the Company shall be deposited only in such accounts of the Company in the Company name, shall not be commingled with funds of Manager, and shall be withdrawn only upon such signature or signatures as may be designated in writing from time to time by Manager.

(d) The APFC Member reserves the right to cause the bank accounts of the Company to be audited at Company expense and to cause any funds deposited in the wrong account to be immediately transferred to the correct account.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.10 to the contrary, at the election of the Manager, the Operating Account and the Capital Expenditures Account may be consolidated into a single account; provided that all terms and conditions relating to such accounts set forth in this Section 6.10 shall remain in effect other than those which, by their nature, imply that the two accounts cannot be consolidated (such as a restriction on comingling of funds) which shall instead be deemed to allow the consolidation of the

two accounts but shall otherwise be construed in the narrowest possible manner so as to permit the combination of the Operating Account and the Capital Expenditure Account into a single account but otherwise continue to impose all restrictions set forth in this Section 6.10 .

(f) The procedures for cash management set forth in this Section 6.10 may be modified with the approval of the Executive Committee.

ARTICLE 7
MANAGEMENT; ACQUISITION AND MANAGEMENT OF PROPERTIES

Section 7.1. Management . In accordance with the Act, the business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by the “manager” of the Company (“ Manager ”), as such term “manager” is provided within the meaning of the Act. The American Member shall be designated as the initial Manager, until such time as the American Member resigns or is removed as herein provided, and thereafter, Manager shall be designated by the APFC Member. Subject to the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any and all consents and approvals required under Sections 7.6 ), Manager shall have the power and authority to manage the business and affairs of the Company, and on behalf and in the name of the Company, to carry out the business affairs of the Company, all in accordance with the Annual Business Plan and Budget and to perform all acts which it deems, in its reasonable discretion, necessary or desirable in furtherance of such purposes, provided that (a) Manager shall at all times exercise Due Care in carrying out its obligations under this Agreement and the business contemplated by the Annual Business Plan and Budget, and (b) Manager shall manage the business and affairs of the Company so as to ensure that the Company is not deemed a tax resident in a jurisdiction outside of the United States. Manager’s obligation to exercise Due Care shall be in addition to (and not in lieu of) Manager’s obligation to comply with the duty of care and the duty of loyalty under the Act and applicable Delaware law. Manager shall act as a fiduciary to the Company and the other Members. Upon the request of any Member and from time to time in accordance with Section 3.2 , Manager shall report to the Executive Committee (and the APFC Member’s Investment Manager) as to the status of and compliance with the Annual Business Plan and Budget and Major Decisions as well as the other business affairs of the Company. Manager shall devote such time, efforts and managerial resources to the business of the Company as are reasonably required in connection with implementing the Annual Business Plan and Budget and performing all of its other obligations under this Agreement. Manager shall at all times perform its duties and responsibilities in compliance with all Governmental Requirements, the Annual Business Plan and Budget, this Agreement and the other agreements entered into by Manager or its Affiliates relating to the Company. To the extent that Manager or a Member is specifically authorized to take certain actions under the express terms of this Agreement (or as expressly agreed to by the Executive Committee in the Annual Business Plan), or the Property Management Agreement which would not be permitted based on a strict reading of the defined term “Due Care” , the taking of such action shall not constitute a failure to exercise Due Care; provided, however, that this sentence shall be construed narrowly and only apply to actions which are expressly and specifically set forth in this Agreement, or the Property Management Agreement. By way of example, the making of a Default Loan shall not constitute a failure to exercise Due Care even though the exercise of Due Care would prohibit the “lending of money…to the Company with…an unreasonably high rate of interest.”

Section 7.2. Acquisition, Leasing, Sale and Renovation of Properties .

(a) Under the supervision of Manager, AH LLC shall, on behalf of the Company and during the Investment Period, acquire Properties to be held by the Company, and renovate such Properties in a manner consistent with the Annual Business Plan and Budget and subject to obtaining any consent of the Executive Committee that may be required pursuant to Section 7.5 ; provided that each Property acquired by the Company shall be within the Property Parameters or otherwise specifically approved by the Executive Committee. Any Member may at any time during the Investment Period recommend to the Executive Committee that the Property Parameters be amended or modified by providing written notice of such recommendation to each of the Members, and the Executive Committee shall promptly consider any such recommendation. If the Executive Committee approves any such amendment or modification, Manager shall promptly prepare and provide to each Member a revised Schedule B that shall from and after the date of such approval replace the then-current Schedule B , and the Property Parameters shall be deemed to have been so amended or modified for all purposes of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 13.1 ) from and after such date.

(b) Manager shall not cause the Company or any Subsidiary to acquire a Property in a Metropolitan Area in the following circumstances (i) such Metropolitan Area is not shown in Schedule B , (ii) such Metropolitan Area has not been approved by the Executive Committee in writing, or (iii) if the Property Acquisition and Renovation Cost for a Property in a specific Metropolitan Area will cause the Property Acquisition and Renovation Cost for the Properties located in such Metropolitan Area (such sum is referred to herein as the “Metropolitan Area Property Costs” ), to exceed 15% of the aggregate Capital Contributions as of the date of acquisition (the “Maximum Metropolitan Investment” ). At such time as the Metropolitan Area Property Costs will exceed 12.5% of the aggregate Capital Contributions as of the date of acquisition (the “Base Metropolitan Investment” ) with respect to any Metropolitan Area, Manager shall provide written notice to the APFC Member that (x) the Metropolitan Area Property Costs have (or will) exceed the Base Metropolitan Investment, and (y) unless otherwise directed by the APFC Member, the Company will not be acquiring Properties in such Metropolitan Area when the Metropolitan Area Property Costs are between the Base Metropolitan Investment and the Maximum Metropolitan Investment. Within ten (10) days after receiving such written notice, the APFC Member may direct Manager to purchase Properties up to the Maximum Metropolitan Investment or propose to the Executive Committee that the Maximum Metropolitan Investment for such Metropolitan Area be increased. If the APFC Member fails to respond to such notice within such ten (10) day period, the Maximum Metropolitan Investment shall not be increased and the American Member may purchase homes in such Metropolitan Area for its own account as provided in Article 13 after the Metropolitan Area Property Costs for such Metropolitan Area exceed the Base Metropolitan Investment. For purposes of estimating those Property Acquisition and Renovation Costs under this Section 7.2(b) which have not yet been incurred (such as the Property Carry Cost and the cost of the Initial Renovations), Manager shall use those amounts projected in the Annual Business Plan and Budget.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, unless otherwise expressly consented to by the Executive Committee, Manager shall not cause or permit the Company or any Subsidiary to acquire any Property, if (i) the

acquisition of such Property is not in compliance with the Property Parameters, (ii) Manager has not performed the level of due diligence set forth in Schedule B and in the Annual Business Plan and Budget, (iii) if the Property is a “listed” Property, Manager has not obtained a commitment for an ALTA Homeowner’s Policy for such Property from an Approved Title Provider in the amount of the gross purchase price of such Property insuring the Company or such Subsidiary as the vested owner in fee of such Property, free and clear of all mortgages, deeds of trust and other monetary liens, and with only those other exceptions to title as are reasonably approved by Manager, (iv) if the Property is an “auction” Property, Manager has not confirmed based on the information described in the memorandum attached as Schedule J (as it relates to such Metropolitan Area), to the extent ascertainable from the information which Manager is required to obtain, that the Company or such Subsidiary will be the vested owner of such Property at such foreclosure sale, free and clear of all mortgages and deeds of trust, subject only to those monetary liens used when calculating the bid price at action, and with only those other exceptions to title as are reasonably approved by Manager, (iv) all insurance coverages required under this Agreement with respect to such Property have not been obtained; (v) an Event of Default has occurred (or Manager has received written notice that a breach has occurred and Manager has not yet cured such breach) or a dispute exists under Section 11.2(g) ; or (vi) the Investment Period has expired or terminated. If a Metropolitan Area is not described in Schedule J , prior to purchasing Property in such Metropolitan Area, the Executive Committee shall approve the manner in which title will be reviewed prior to any auction, and no Properties shall be acquired in such Metropolitan Area until the Executive Committee has made such determination. Manager shall obtain a final ALTA Homeowner’s Policy as soon as reasonably practicable after the acquisition of a Property (but in no event later than six (6) months after the acquisition date); provided, however, that if the Company shall not have received a deed to a particular Property within thirty (30) days prior to the end of such six (6) month period for such Property as a result of a legal challenge to the Company’s acquisition of such Property, then the Company shall obtain such title policy within thirty (30) days after the applicable deed is received by the Company. The failure of Manager to cause a final ALTA Homeowner’s Policy to be obtained for any Property within such period shall result in such Property immediately constituting a Nonconforming Property.

(d) AH LLC shall use Due Care (and Manager shall take reasonable actions intended to ensure that AH LLC uses Due Care) to punctually complete the Initial Renovation of all the Properties in accordance with, and subject to, the Annual Business Plan and Budget and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, free and clear of all liens associated with such development and construction against the Property. In completing the Initial Renovation, Manager shall use Due Care (i) to obtain and satisfy all conditions under any necessary governmental approvals, permits, and entitlements, and (ii) to manage, oversee and supervise the activities of all third party contractors. Manager shall use Due Care to cause all work on the Properties to be performed in a good and workmanlike manner.

(e) Manager shall use Due Care to cause all of the Properties to be leased in accordance with the Annual Business Plan and Budget. Manager, acting alone, shall have authority to cause the Property Manager to execute and deliver on behalf of the Company (and, on its behalf, any Subsidiary), leases with respect to the occupancy of individual Property to un-Affiliated third parties, so long as (i) the terms and conditions of such leases and the rents for the Properties are as contemplated by the Annual Business Plan and Budget, (ii) the lease is not for a term in excess of twenty-four (24) months, (iii) no more than two (2) leases are

entered into with the same Person in the same (or same series of) transaction(s) unless approved by the Executive Committee ( e.g. , a bulk leasing transaction), and (iv) such leases conform to the Company’s standard forms in all material respects, as approved by the APFC Member. If requested by a Member, Manager shall deliver fully executed copies of every lease (including any and all amendments or modifications thereof), entered into by the Company or any Subsidiary within ten (10) days after a Member’s request for the same. Manager may enter into leases with Affiliates of the American Member provided that Manager has obtained the written approval of the Executive Committee as to the rental rate and other terms relating to such lease.

(f) Initially, the intent of the Members is to hold the Property for the Term, unless the market conditions warrant selling certain Properties during the Term as discussed in the Annual Business Plan and Budget, in which case, Manager shall market and sell those Properties during the Term. Beginning two years after the Effective Date, the Executive Committee shall, on a quarterly basis, assess whether some or all of the Properties should be sold. Manager shall use Due Care to cause all of the Properties, which are to be sold pursuant to the Annual Business Plan and Budget, to be marketed and sold in accordance with the Annual Business Plan and Budget and Section 7.20 . Manager, acting alone, shall have authority to execute and deliver on behalf of the Company (and, on its behalf, any Subsidiary), purchase and sale contracts, deeds, escrow instructions and other customary documentation which are necessary, customary or desirable with respect to the sale of individual Properties (collectively, the “Sale Documents” ), provided that (i) such Property is sold to an un-Affiliated third party, (ii) the purchase price for each such Property is no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Property Acquisition and Renovation Costs, (iii) the Sale Documents executed in connection with the sale of such Unit do not contractually obligate the Company or any Subsidiary to materially greater post-closing liability or recourse exposure than is provided in the Company’s standard form Sale Documents, as approved by the APFC Member (the “Approved Form Sale Documents” ), (iv) such sale is made on an all cash basis, without any seller carryback financing being provided by the Company or any Subsidiary, (v) the contingency periods and escrow periods contained within such Sale Documents do not exceed the maximum contingency periods and escrow periods referenced in the Approved Form Sale Documents, and (vi) no more than ten (10) Properties are sold to the same Person unless otherwise approved by the Executive Committee ( e.g. , a bulk sale transaction). If requested by a Member, Manager shall deliver to such Member fully executed copies of the Sale Documents (including any and all amendments or modifications thereof) entered into in connection with the sale of any or all of the Properties within ten (10) days after such Member’s request for the same.

Section 7.3. Persons Authorized to Act . Manager may designate an agent, employee or other representative of the Company as an “officer” or representative authorized to take action for or sign agreements or documents on behalf of the Company. The Persons initially authorized to sign agreements or documents on behalf of the Company are set forth in Schedule F .

Section 7.4. Nature of Obligations Among Members . Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by written agreement among the Members, no Member shall have any authority to act for or assume any obligation or responsibility on behalf of any other Member or the Company.

Section 7.5. Member Compensation; Fees; Reimbursements .

(a) Except for payment of the Acquisition Fee, the Renovation Fee, the Property Management Fee and the Overhead Fee, no compensation for services rendered shall be paid by the Company or any Subsidiary to any Member or Manager or any of their respective Affiliates. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Member and Manager shall be solely responsible for, and shall pay, all wages, salaries and other costs and expenses associated with the employment of its employees and the same shall not be a cost of the Company. In addition, Manager shall be solely responsible for the costs incurred to pursue any properties, including, without limitation, all travel expenses, the wages of all Persons bidding at auctions and all expenses relating to the investigation, research and review of the properties, such as the cost to obtain information relating to the title of the properties. This Section 7.5 shall not prohibit the payment of any reimbursements or other payments expressly provided for in this Agreement or the Property Management Agreement, including, without limitation, payments permitted under Section 7.5(e) , any captive insurance premiums to the extent permitted under the Annual Business Plan and Budget, the Leasing Bonuses (as defined in the Property Management Agreement) and the AH4R Brokerage Fee (as defined below).

(b) Subject to Section 7.15 , in consideration of AH LLC facilitating the acquisition of each Property acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary after the Effective Date, the Company shall pay AH LLC the Acquisition Fee, which amounts shall be reduced by any AH4R Brokerage Fee received by AH LLC or its Affiliates in connection with the acquisition of such Property. Each Acquisition Fee shall be deemed earned by AH LLC, and shall be paid by the Company to AH LLC, upon the closing of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s acquisition of the applicable Property.

(c) Subject to Section 7.15 , in consideration of AH LLC or its Subsidiaries performing services in connection with the Initial Renovation of each Property acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary after the Effective Date, the Company shall pay AH LLC the Renovation Fee. Each Renovation Fee shall be deemed earned by AH LLC, and shall be paid by the Company to AH LLC promptly following certification by the Manager that repair and renovation of the applicable Property so that such Property is suitable for leasing to future tenants without further initial repair or initial renovation.

(d) In consideration of Manager or its Affiliate undertaking and performing its responsibilities as Property Manager, from and after the Effective Date and for so long as Manager or its Affiliate is engaged as the Property Manager, the Company shall pay the Property Manager a property management fee (the “Property Management Fee” ) in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of the Property Management Agreement. In the event that one or more third-party property manager(s) is engaged with respect to the Properties, the American Member shall, at its sole cost and expense, pay any and all amounts payable to such property managers thereunder (even if such amounts exceed the Property Management Fee) and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless from and against any and all Claims/Damages of the APFC Member, the Company, the Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates, shareholders, partners, members, board members, employees, representatives, consultants or agents arising out of or relating to any property management agreement (oral or written) with any Person providing (or alleging to provide) any type of management services to any of the Properties. The American Member shall

neither be reimbursed nor deemed to have made a Capital Contribution in respect of paying any such amounts.

(e) The Company shall pay, on behalf of the APFC Member, all of the Investor Legal Costs. The APFC Member shall provide a basic invoice setting forth the amount charged for the legal services, the name of the payee and the wiring instructions, but shall not be required to provide any other information relating to such legal work (including the hours billed or time entries) to the Company or the American Member. The American Member shall be reimbursed by the Company for the actual third-party legal and accounting costs directly relating to the formation of the Company and the Subsidiaries provided, however, that the reimbursement amount payable to the American Member shall not exceed twenty-five (25%) of the Investor Legal Costs paid to (or on behalf of) the APFC Member and all invoices (other than invoices which would be subject to the attorney/client privilege) shall be provided to substantiate such amounts.

(f) Except as provided in Section 7.5(f) , the Company shall reimburse Manager for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred and paid by Manager to un-Affiliated third parties (other than third-party managers) in performing its obligations under this Agreement, as specifically set forth in the Annual Business Plan and Budget. In addition, Manager shall be entitled to an overhead fee in an amount equal to the Overhead Fee for allocations of compensation of employees of the American Member and its Affiliates in performing accounting, tax services and legal services; provided, however, that Manager shall act reasonably to use such internal services to reduce expenses of third-party accounting, legal and tax firms. Payments of the Overhead Fee, the Acquisition Fee, the Renovation Fee and the Property Management Fee shall be treated as expenses of the Company and shall not be deemed to constitute distributions to American Member of profit, loss or capital of the Company. Except for the Overhead Fee, the Acquisition Fee, the Renovation Fee and the Property Management Fee, Manager shall not receive any compensation for serving as Manager; in addition, except for the Overhead Fee, the Acquisition Fee, the Renovation Fee and the Property Management Fee, Manager, Property Manager and their Affiliates shall be fully responsible, at their sole cost and expense, for any overhead and employees’ salaries, benefits, commissions and incentive payments.

The brokerage fee (the “ AH4R Brokerage Fee ”) payable in connection therewith shall be retained by AH LLC or its Affiliate if, and only if, the amount of the Acquisition Fee payable under Section 7.5(b) has been reduced by the full amount of the AH4R Brokerage Fee received by AH LLC or its Affiliates. If the AH4R Brokerage Fee exceeds the amount of the Acquisition Fee payable in connection with any Property, any excess amount shall be paid to the Company. If the Acquisition Fee has not been reduced or the AH4R Brokerage Fee exceed the Acquisition Fee, the AH4R Brokerage Fee shall be paid to the Company. AH LLC, Manager and its Affiliates shall not act as the selling broker with respect to any Properties (and shall not receive a brokerage fee in connection with the sale of any Properties) without obtaining the prior written approval of the Executive Committee (and the fee shall be paid to the Company unless otherwise approved by the Executive Committee).

Section 7.6. Special Actions Requiring Member Approval . Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, Manager shall not cause or permit the Company or any Subsidiary to take or agree or commit to take any of the following actions (each, a “ Major Decision ”) without the prior approval of the Executive Committee (which approval may be withheld by any Authorized Representative in such person’s sole discretion).

The Operating Budget shall include anticipated revenues (considering projected occupancies and rate increases), capital improvements, financing needs, insurance coverage (including coverage types and policy limits), and all other operating expenditures of the Company (including any fees provided for in the Property Management Agreement).

(b) The Annual Business Plan and Budget for the period beginning on the date hereof and ending December 31, 2015, is attached hereto as Schedule G .

The failure of the Executive Committee to approve all or a portion of the Annual Business Plan and Budget for any reason shall be deemed its disapproval, except as to such portion that has been approved in writing.

(c) Manager shall have the right, from time to time during each Fiscal Year, to submit a proposed amendment to the Annual Business Plan and Budget to the Executive Committee for

approval. The Executive Committee shall review all proposed amendments to the Annual Business Plan and Budget in the same manner as the Annual Business Plan and Budget. Following delivery of any proposed amendment to an Annual Business Plan and Budget, the Executive Committee shall be required to approve or disapprove such proposed amendment no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which Manager has met with the Executive Committee regarding the proposed amendment. The failure of the Executive Committee to approve all or a portion of an amendment to the Annual Business Plan and Budget for any reason shall be deemed its disapproval, except as to such portion that has been approved in writing. If the Executive Committee disapproves or is deemed to have disapproved a proposed amendment to the Annual Business Plan and Budget, Manager shall continue to exercise Due Care to comply with the Annual Business Plan and Budget in accordance with the foregoing provisions (and subject to clauses (d) and (e) below) until a proposed amendment has been approved.

Manager shall secure the Executive Committee’s prior approval for any expenditure that will cause an expense item to exceed the amount set forth in the Annual Business Plan and Budget for such expense item, provided that no such approval shall be required if such expenditure is for the payment of Non-Controllable Items or Emergency Situation Responses.

Section 7.8. Failure to Adopt a Budget . Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 7.6 and 7.7 , in the event that the Executive Committee fails to approve all or certain provisions of an Annual Business Plan and Budget for a given Fiscal Year, Manager shall conduct the business of the Company pursuant to those provisions of such Annual Business Plan and Budget which are agreed-upon and adopted by the Executive Committee. With respect to any aspects of the business of the Company that are specific to the Annual Business Plan and Budget for a given year (such as the acquisition of Properties during the Investment Period), such aspects shall not apply to the operation of the business of the Company for the subsequent year; provided, however, that Manager may cause the Company to pay any Non-Controllable Items; provided, further however, that Manager shall commence the liquidation of the Properties after the occurrence of a Liquidation Event in accordance with Article 12 even if the Annual Business Plan and Budget for such year has not yet been approved.

Section 7.9. Contracts With Affiliates . Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 7.9 and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including, without limitation, Section 7.6(k) ), if there is a contract between the Company or any Subsidiary, on the one hand, and a Member or an Affiliate of a Member, on the other hand, then the other Member shall have the right unilaterally (but not the obligation) to make any decision by the Company (as party to the contract or as the sole member of such Subsidiary) to

exercise any right or remedy by reason of a default under, or terminate, extend, modify or agree to a waiver or forbearance of, such contract. Any other approval, consent or other determination to be made by the Company or such Subsidiary under such contract shall be given, withheld or made by the other un-Affiliated Member. If a contract with an Affiliate is terminated, any substitute contract shall be with a third party approved by the Executive Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all actions requiring approval by the “Owner” under the Property Management Agreement may be approved by Manager acting alone, but only to the extent such action does not constitute a Major Decision and Manager would otherwise be permitted to make such decision under this Agreement without obtaining the consent of the Executive Committee; provided, however, that the foregoing shall be limited to the approvals exercised prior to the delivery of a written default notice by the APFC Member to Manager or the Property Manager, and the foregoing shall not imply that any party other than the APFC Member may cause the Company to exercise any right or remedy by reason of a default under, or terminate, extend, modify or agree to a waiver or forbearance of, such contract. Without limiting the approvals required under this Agreement, for avoidance of doubt, the approvals pursuant to Sections 3.01 (Preparation of Operating Budget and Rent Schedule), 3.04 (Service Contracts) (but only to the extent any contract is entered into with an Affiliate of Manager or the Property Manager), 3.08 (Insurance), 3.10 (but only with respect to the last sentence thereof), 4.07 (Expenses of Owner), 4.08 (Termination and Default), 5.01 (Assignment) and 5.11 (Amendment and Waiver) of the Property Management Agreement shall require the approval of the Executive Committee.

Section 7.10. Third Party Contracts . Neither Company nor any Subsidiary shall enter into any agreement or other arrangement with any third party requiring the continued ownership, control, employment or other involvement of Manager or any employee or other Affiliate of Manager with the Company, any Subsidiary or the Properties without the specific prior written consent of the Executive Committee, provided that this Section 7.10 shall not apply with respect to the Members’ entry into this Agreement or the parties thereto entering into the Property Management Agreement.

Section 7.11. Employees and Contractors . The Company shall conduct its business exclusively through independent contractors and shall not hire any employees (provided that this Section 7.11 shall not prevent Manager or AH LLC from receiving payments of the Overhead Fee, the Acquisition Fee and the Renovation Fee). Manager shall supervise and administer all services rendered to the Company by independent contractors.

Section 7.12. Insurance Matters . Manager shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to obtain and maintain insurance coverage for the Properties and other assets of the Company, in such amounts and with such coverages as set forth in the Annual Business Plan and Budget (and, to the extent the Annual Business Plan and Budget, or the insurance amounts and coverages set forth therein, have not been approved in any year in accordance with Section 7.6 , in such amounts and with such coverages as set forth in the most recent Annual Business Plan and Budget approved in accordance herewith or as required by the lenders under any applicable Indebtedness and with such adjustments as may be required by the insurance carriers), in each case to the extent obtainable from one or more insurance carriers. In addition, Manager shall cause, at its own expense, all persons having access to or with authority to handle or disburse any funds of the Company or any Subsidiary to be bonded or insured, in form and substance and from insurance companies reasonably acceptable to the APFC Member, in the amount of at least

Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000). Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such bonds or insurance to name the APFC Member as an additional insured and to provide that any cancellation notices relating thereto be sent directly to each Member at least then (10) days prior to the effective date thereof and, to the extent such bonds or insurance does not provide for delivery of such notices directly to each Member, Manager shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days after receipt) deliver copies of any such notices to the Members. The Members have initially approved using a “captive” insurance company owned by an Affiliate of American Member for purposes of providing certain insurance required under the Annual Business Plan and Budget. However, the APFC Member may, at any time, require that the Company engage a third-party consultant to audit and/or diligence the “captive” insurance company, and the APFC Member may, at any time, direct the Company to obtain insurance from a third-party insurance provider in place of the “captive” insurance company, without obtaining the approval of the Executive Committee or the American Member.

Section 7.13. Certain Transactions . Manager confirms that it will exercise Due Care to avoid any investment in the Company or any Subsidiary by, and to cause the Company and each Subsidiary to avoid transactions with, any Prohibited Person. Manager shall exercise Due Care to cause the Company and its Subsidiaries and, as it relates to the Company, the Subsidiaries or the Properties, the Property Manager to conduct its business (including in connection with the acquisition or disposition of any property or asset) in accordance with OFAC Laws and Regulations and all applicable Governmental Requirements, including those relating to money laundering and terrorism. Manager shall implement and apply on behalf and at the expense of the Company procedures designed for compliance with the foregoing covenants.

Section 7.14. Delegation of Authority . Manager may from time to time delegate in writing to one or more Members (or, with the consent of the Executive Committee, other Persons) such authority as Manager may deem advisable.

Section 7.15. Notification of Key Person Event . At all times after the Effective Date (i) when the American Member is acting as Manager, at least two (2) Key Persons shall be and remain primarily responsible for, and actively involved in, the oversight of the Company and the Properties, (ii) until the date on which the acquisition and renovation of all Properties is complete, at least two (2) Key Persons shall be and remain primarily responsible for, and actively involved in, the oversight of AH LLC, and (iii) either Jack Corrigan or Dave Singelyn shall remain actively involved in the day-to-day management of the Properties, the Company and, until such time as the acquisition and renovation of all Properties is complete, AH LLC; provided, however, that if a Key Person Event occurs, the American Member may propose other natural persons to serve as Key Persons for the APFC Member’s approval within ten (10) days of such Key Person Event, provided that the APFC Member shall be under no obligation to approve such replacement Key Persons and shall retain the right to exercise its remedies hereunder in the event that the APFC Member elects not to approve such replacement Key Persons. Furthermore, at all times from and after the Effective Date through the date on which the acquisition and renovation of all Properties is complete (or the date on which the acquisition and renovation business is transitioned to the American Member as permitted by this Section 7.15), (I) the Key Persons and the Wayne Hughes Trust shall (a) directly or indirectly retain control of and all rights to manage AH LLC, and (b) own, directly or indirectly, at least ninety-nine percent (99%) of the capital, equity and profits and losses of, and the right to receive distributions from,

AH LLC (provided that such interests may be held by the Key Persons through estate-planning vehicles established for their respective descendants and relatives); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (A) granting an additional five percent (5%) of the membership interests in AH LLC to any employees, principals or managers of AH LLC, (B) any transfers by the Key Persons or Wayne Hughes Trust made solely for purposes of estate planning purposes for the benefit of Wayne Hughes’ or the Key Persons’ descendants and relatives, or (C) grants of additional membership interest to any of the Key Persons. Any breach of this Section 7.15 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default by the American Member and (II) AH LLC shall remain responsible for the acquisition and renovation of Properties (and shall perform the obligations under Section 7.2); provided, however, that upon written notice to the APFC Member, the American Member shall be permitted to transition the acquisition and renovation business to itself (i.e., internalize such operations) so long as (i) no Key Person Event shall have occurred, (ii) either Jack Corrigan or Dave Singelyn shall remain actively involved in the day-to-day acquisition and renovation of the Properties and (iii) the acquisition and renovation of Properties is managed internally by the American Member (rather than by a third party hired to oversee such activities (collectively, the “AH LLC Transition Conditions”). In the event that AH LLC is relieved of its duties with respect to the acquisition and renovation of Properties in violation of any of the AH LLC Transition Conditions, then (y) the Company shall have no obligation to pay Acquisition Fees or Renovation Fees to AH LLC, the American Member or any other party and (z) the American Member shall reimburse the Company for all Acquisition Fees and Renovation Fees previously paid to AH LLC or the American Member under this Agreement. Manager shall deliver prompt written notice to the APFC Member of the occurrence of any event, circumstance or occurrence that Manager reasonably believes may be a Key Person Event or otherwise violate this Section 7.15 (including a violation of the AH LLC Transition Conditions).

Section 7.16. Resignation and Removal of Manager . Manager may not resign as manager of the Company without the approval of the Executive Committee. Manager may be removed by a Member as permitted pursuant to Section 11.3 or 11.4 or upon Manager or its Affiliate ceasing to have any LLC Interests. Upon any such resignation or removal, the APFC Member shall appoint a replacement Manager (or assume the duties of Manager hereunder for itself or its Affiliate).

Section 7.17. Acquisition Compliance .

(a) The APFC Member shall have the right to audit the Properties acquired after the Effective Date to ensure that the Properties conform to the Property Parameters, the Annual Business Plan and Budget and the other terms of this Agreement.

(b) If (i) a Property fails to conform to the Property Parameters, the Annual Business Plan and Budget and the other terms of this Agreement, (ii) the American Member has made a representation and warranty regarding a Property that is untrue or incorrect in any material respect or (iii) the Manager failed to cause the Company to obtain a final ALTA Homeowner’s Policy for any Property within six (6) months of the acquisition date of such Property in accordance with Section 7.2(c) (each of the Properties referred to in subparagraph (i), (ii) and (iii) are referred to herein as a “Nonconforming Property” ), at the election of the APFC Member (which election shall be exercised by the APFC Member prior to the date which is

thirty (30) days after the Authorized Representatives of the APFC Member have actual current knowledge (not constructive or imputed knowledge) of such Nonconforming Property), the American Member shall purchase such Property, “as is” without any representation or warranty, at the cost incurred by the Company to acquire and renovate such Property (including, without limitation, all acquisition, closing, leasing, renovation and other costs relating to such Property and any Acquisition Fee, Renovation Fee or other fees paid by the Company) (such acquisition to occur within sixty (60) days after the election is made by the APFC Member to sell such Nonconforming Property to the American Member); provided, however, that if requested by the American Member prior to the expiration of such sixty (60) day period, the Company will agree to hold title to the Nonconforming Property as an accommodation to the American Member for a period of six (6) months from the date that the election is made by the APFC Member to sell such Nonconforming Property to the American Member and then direct deed such Nonconforming Property to a third party purchaser thereof so long as (x) the American Member indemnifies, defends and holds harmless the Company and the APFC Member from and against and Claims/Damages arising out of such Nonconforming Property, (y) the American Member pays, at its sole cost and expense, all expenses relating to the Nonconforming Property while the Company holds the Nonconforming Property and (z) in the event that the Property cannot be conveyed to a third party purchaser during such period, the Property shall instead be purchased by the American Member under the terms set forth herein prior to the expiration of such six (6) month period. Those Properties that the Executive Committee specifically directs Manager to acquire after the Effective Date ( i.e. , the Executive Committee identifies such Property by address) shall not be Nonconforming Properties. The American Member shall pay all costs in connection with the transfer of such Nonconforming Property (including transfer tax, title insurance and homeowner association and transfer fees) and shall pay the Company for all amounts due hereunder (the amount required to be paid by the American Member to purchase such Non-Conforming Property) within ten (10) Business Days of demand by the APFC Member (and such amount shall be timely paid even if the Company is directed to hold the Property as an accommodation to the American Member).

(c) With respect to the first fifty (50) Properties identified by the APFC Member as Nonconforming Properties, no default shall be deemed to have occurred on the part of American Member so long as (A) the acquisition of such Nonconforming Property and/or the making of the representation or warranty do not amount to Bad Conduct, and (B) either (i) if the APFC Member elects for the American Member to repurchase the Nonconforming Property, the American Member timely pays the amounts under Section 7.17(b) and otherwise complies with the requirements contained therein, or (ii) if there is no monetary breach and the APFC Member does not elect for the American Member to repurchase the Nonconforming Property in accordance with Section 7.17(b) . This Section 7.17(c) shall not limit any indemnification rights of the APFC Member and the Company under this Agreement.

(d) If the APFC Member identifies more than fifty (50) Nonconforming Properties (other than “Excluded Nonconforming Properties”) taking into account the permitted deviations in Schedule B ), an Event of Default shall immediately be deemed to have occurred on the part of Manager and the APFC Member may exercise all rights and remedies under this Agreement (including, the remedies under this Section 7.17) . An “Excluded Nonconforming Property” shall mean any Nonconforming Property that meets both of the following conditions: (1) it is a Nonconforming Property solely because it contains a restriction on leasing and

(2) it has been subsequently sold by the Company for an amount in excess of the sum of the costs incurred by the Company to acquire such Property and to renovate such Property (including all fees and costs related thereto).

Section 7.18. APFC Decision-Making Rights .

(a) Subject to Section 7.18(b) , if directed by the APFC Member, Manager shall cause the Company to take or omit from taking any action necessary for the APFC Member to comply with any Governmental Requirements applicable to the APFC Member even if such action would otherwise constitute a Major Decision or require the consent of the American Member. No other Member may cause the Company to take any action contrary to the APFC Member’s directions under this Section 7.18(a) .

(b) If, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default on the part of the American Member or the delivery of written notice by the APFC Member to the American Member that a default has occurred, the APFC Member provides written notice to the American Member that the Board of Trustees of the APFC Member (the “ Board of Trustees ”) has promulgated an official regulation that requires the APFC Member to cause the Company to sell the Properties, prior to implementing such regulation, the American Member shall have thirty (30) days to elect, by delivering written notice to the APFC Member, to purchase the APFC Member’s LLC Interest for an amount equal to the greater of (a) eighty percent (80%) of all costs incurred by the Company to acquire, operate, renovate, maintain, manage and hold the Properties then held by the Company and all costs incurred to form, operate, maintain and manage the Company, or (b) the aggregate Capital Contributions and Default Loans of the APFC Member which have not then been returned or repaid; provided, however, that upon receiving such written notice from the American Member of its election to purchase the APFC Member’s LLC Interest, the APFC Member may deliver written notice to the American Member within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of American Member’s notice, that the Board of Trustees has subsequently revoked the regulation (in which case, the American Member shall have no right to purchase the APFC Member’s LLC Interest). For avoidance of doubt, the exercise by the APFC Member of any of its rights and remedies under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its right to liquidate the Company after the occurrence of an Event of Default or its right to require that the Company be liquidated upon the expiration of the Term) shall not be construed under any circumstances as a regulation promulgated by the Board of Trustees covered by this Section 7.18(b) , even if such election is made pursuant to the direction of the Board of Trustees. This Section 7.18(b) is to be construed narrowly and is only to apply to those situations when the Board of Trustees promulgates regulations to cause the Company to take action to sell the Properties which would not otherwise be available to the APFC Member under the terms of this Agreement.

Section 7.19. American Member Notifications . The American Member shall promptly notify the APFC Member (and APFC Member’s Investment Manager) of:

(a) Any litigation instituted or threatened against, and any settlement, decree, judgment or award relating to litigation against, the Company or any Subsidiary with amounts in controversy in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), and the basis of the claims made in such litigation;

(b) Any litigation instituted or threatened against, and any settlement, decree, judgment or award relating to litigation against, (i) the American Member, (ii) the Key Persons, or (iii) any Affiliate of the American Member which has entered into an agreement with the Company, with amounts in controversy in excess of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000), and the basis of the claims made in such litigation;

(c) Any felony criminal proceedings (or investigation thereof) instituted or threatened against (i) the American Member, (ii) the Key Persons, (iii) the Company, (iv) any Subsidiary, or (v) any Affiliate of the American Member which has entered into an agreement with the Company, and the basis of the claims made in such criminal proceedings;

(d) Any development concerning any of the (i) the American Member, (ii) the Key Persons, (iii) the Company, (v) any Subsidiaries, (vi) any Properties, or (v) any Affiliate of the American Member which has entered into an agreement with the Company, that is likely to have a material impact on any of them, to impact their ability to perform their obligations under this Agreement or to constitute a breach under this Agreement;

(e) Any material breach of this Agreement or any related agreement on the part of (i) the American Member, (ii) the Key Persons, or (iii) any Affiliate of the American Member which has entered into an agreement with the Company; and

(f) Any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any agreement entered into in connection with this Agreement by (i) the American Member, (ii) the Key Persons, (iii) the Company, or (iv) any Affiliate of the American Member which has entered into an agreement with the Company.

Section 7.20. REIT Compliance

. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, so long as any holder of a direct or indirect equity interest in the American Member that has elected to be a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes (herein referred to as a “ American Member REIT ”) holds a direct or indirect interest in the Company, unless waived in writing by the American Member REIT, or a particular action is consented to in writing by the American Member, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns shall conduct their operations in a manner that shall permit the American Member REIT to qualify or continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust under Code sections 856 through and including 860, as amended, and under other applicable provisions of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. If the Company (or any Subsidiary) is required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to take any action that would adversely affect the ability of the American Member REIT to qualify or continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust, or subject the American Member REIT to any taxes under sections 856 through 860, or section 4981 of the Code (collectively the “ REIT Regulations ”), then the Members, upon receipt of written notice thereof, will cooperate in good faith to take such action or cause the Company to take such action, to avoid such adverse consequences. The Manager shall have the right to propose taking any action (and to cause any Subsidiary to take any action) or to refrain from taking any action (and to cause any Subsidiary to refrain from taking any action) to ensure that American Member REIT would so qualify as a REIT and would not be subject to any taxes under the REIT

Regulations, so long as any such proposed action is the minimum that would be hypothetically necessary in order for the Company to qualify as a real estate investment trust or in order for the Company to avoid being subject to any taxes under the REIT Regulations, for this purpose taking into account only the actions of the Company (or any Subsidiary) and only taking into account taxable items of Company income, gain, deduction and loss in making such determination. The Members agree that in the event the Manager shall propose to take any action (or cause the Company or any Subsidiary to take any action) to ensure the American Member REIT would so qualify as a REIT or to avoid the imposition of taxes under the REIT Regulations as described above, the Members shall cooperate in good faith to determine and implement a course of action which would, to the extent possible, avoid such adverse consequences; provided that (i) any such changes shall not have a material adverse effect on the APFC Member (as reasonably determined by the APFC Member) and (ii) the American Member shall bear one hundred percent (100%) of (A) the cost (including legal fees for both Members) in connection with the negotiation and documentation of any such amendments or modifications and (B) any other costs or expenses incurred by the APFC Member by virtue of the implementation of this Section 7.20. The American Member acknowledges that it is the sole responsibility of the American Member (and not the responsibility of the APFC Member) to review this Agreement and the Annual Business Plan and Budget and determine that each of the same satisfies the American Member’s potential REIT concerns.

Section 8.6. Returns .

The Members shall approve or disapprove of the Tax Returns no later than ten (10) days after the date on which the draft Tax Returns are delivered to the Members by providing written notice to Manager. To be effective, any notice that disapproves a draft tax return must contain specific line item objections thereto in reasonable detail. Any Member who fails to provide any such written notice within the ten-day period shall be deemed to have approved the Tax Returns as submitted. Manager shall have the right to cause the Company to withhold and pay to any applicable governmental tax collecting authority or agency any federal or state income or other tax required or permitted to be withheld by the Company pursuant to any applicable law, and shall promptly request an appropriate extension (to the extent allowable by the applicable tax authorities) if the Members do not approve (or are deemed to have approved) a draft tax return prior to its due date. Any withheld amount shall be deemed to have been distributed or paid to the Member with respect to whom such amounts have been withheld.

Manager shall, and shall cause its employees, representatives, agents and advisors, to reasonably assist and cooperate with the APFC Member’s valuation in connection with any information requests, including answering queries and providing copies of any documents and other Company or Property-related materials that are necessary or desired to perform its valuation. The Company shall engage such outside service providers in the business of providing data relating to valuation, pricing and rental information if the APFC Member determines that this information is desired to perform its valuation, and the cost of such services shall be a cost of the Company.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the American Member, the APFC Member shall not Transfer any LLC Interests or any security or other instrument which is convertible into, exercisable for, or exchangeable for LLC Interests to any Person; provided, however, that notwithstanding the above, subject to Section 10.1(d) , the APFC Member shall be permitted to Transfer LLC Interests or any security or other instrument which is convertible into, exercisable for, or exchangeable for LLC Interests to any of its Affiliates or to a successor or affiliated governmental entity.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, without the written consent of each Member, no Member may Transfer all or any portion of its LLC Interests if such Transfer would (i) violate any federal securities laws or any applicable state securities laws (including suitability standards), or (ii) cause the Company to qualify as a “publicly traded partnership,” as that term is defined in the Code. If a Transfer is permitted or approved and the proposed transferee Member is as a result of such Transfer not ultimately Controlled by the APFC Member or the American Member, as a condition precedent to such Transfer the proposed transferee shall execute and deliver a Compliance Certificate.

ARTICLE 11
EVENTS OF DEFAULT

Section 11.1. Events of Default . The occurrence of any of the events set forth below shall constitute an “Event of Default” on the part of Manager or the applicable Member if the default remains uncured and not otherwise fully remedied within fifteen (15) days after Manager or such Member receives written notice of such default from a non-defaulting Member; provided, however, that (i) if such default cannot with diligent efforts be cured or otherwise fully remedied within such fifteen (15)-day period but such Member (or such Affiliate of such Member) commences such cure or remedy within such fifteen (15)-day period, thereafter diligently and continuously prosecutes such cure, and such default is reasonably susceptible to cure within forty-five (45) days, such fifteen (15)-day period shall be extended for the time reasonably required to effect such cure or remedy, but in no event for more than an additional forty-five (45) days ( i.e. , sixty (60) days total), and (ii) the following breaches shall not be subject to any cure period (unless expressly set forth below): (A) a breach constituting Bad Conduct, (B) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy/Dissolution Event, (C) a breach of Article 13 , and (D) a breach of an obligation involving a pattern of prior breaches of such obligation or similar obligation that continues after notice of such pattern by the non-defaulting Member (in other words, a Member (in its capacity as Member or Manager) shall not continually breach an obligation even if a cure period is provided). Additionally, Manager shall not be given more than five (5) days to cure any failure to deliver any reports, tax-related statements, financing statements or annual business plans and budgets.

(a) the occurrence of any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of Manager or such Member pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any breach or inaccuracy of any statement set forth in a certificate delivered by Manager or such Member to any other Member pursuant to this Agreement, in each case (or in the aggregate) that would reasonably be expected to cause a material adverse effect on the Properties or the business, financial condition, tax status or results of operations of a Member or the Company, it being understood that if such breach has caused any damage to the Company (even if such damage is immaterial), the defaulting Manager or Member shall promptly pay such damages (or a good faith estimate of such damages approved by the Executive Committee, acting reasonably) to the Company; provided, however, that if Manager or such Member unintentionally makes an inaccurate statement in a certificate that would reasonably be expected to cause a material adverse effect on the Properties or the business, financial condition, tax status or results of operations of a Member or the Company, and such certificate was not relied upon by the other Member in taking action (by way of example, the other Member did not fund a Capital Contribution in reliance upon such certificate), then no breach shall be deemed to have occurred if Manager or such Member provides a corrected certificate within the earlier of (i) two (2) Business Days after discovering such inaccuracy, or (ii) thirty (30) days after the delivery of the original inaccurate certificate;

(b) any material breach of any covenant, undertaking, obligation or agreement on the part of Manager, a Member or an Affiliate of Manager or a Member pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement between the Company, on the one hand, and Manager, a Member or an Affiliate of Manager or a Member on the other hand, including the Property Management Agreement;

(c) with respect to the American Member (as Manager or as Member), the occurrence of any Bad Conduct or a breach of the Financial Covenant;

(d) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy/Dissolution Event on the part of a Member or a Member’s Affiliate that is a party to a contract with the Company or a Subsidiary; or

(e) with respect to the American Member (as Manager or as Member), the occurrence of a Key Person Event.

Section 11.2. Remedies .

(a) After the occurrence of any Event of Default by the American Member (whether as a Member or as Manager), the APFC Member shall be entitled to:

(i) remove the American Member as Manager based on a Change in Control Trigger Event and exercise the other rights and remedies set forth in this Article 11 ;

(ii) terminate the Investment Period;

(iii) liquidate the Company; and/or

(iv) cause the Company to immediately terminate the Property Management Agreement and any other agreement between the Company and the American Member or its Affiliate.

(b) After the occurrence of any Event of Default by the APFC Member, the American Member shall be entitled to liquidate the Company and/or terminate the Investment Period.

(c) In addition to the above remedies, a non-breaching Member may exercise all other remedies at law or in equity. Any damages payable by a Member to the Company (either under this Agreement may be offset against any amounts payable to such Member by the Company, and any damages payable by a Member to any Person may be paid by the Company out of distributions which would otherwise be payable to such Member. Such amounts shall be treated as if they had, in fact, been distributed to such Member and then been used by such Member to pay damages to the Company or such other Person.

(d) Except in the case that this Agreement expressly provides that a remedy is the sole and exclusive remedy of a Member, no remedy conferred upon the Members (including any Member in its capacity as Manager) in this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but rather each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute.

(e) Any Member (including in its capacity as Manager) shall be entitled to maintain, on its own behalf or on behalf of the Company, any action or proceeding against any other Member (including in its capacity as Manager) or the Company (including any action for damages, specific performance or declaratory relief) for or by reason of breach of such party of

this Agreement and/or any other agreement, notwithstanding the fact that any or all of the parties to such proceeding may then be Members in the Company, and without dissolving the Company.

(f) No waiver by a Member (including in its capacity as Manager) or the Company of any breach of or default under this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach or default of any kind or nature, and no acceptance of payment or performance by a Member (including in its capacity as Manager) or the Company after any such breach or default shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach or default of this Agreement, whether or not such Member or the Company knows of such other breach or default at the time it accepts such payment or performance. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no failure or delay on the part of a Member (including in its capacity as Manager) or the Company to exercise any right it may have with respect to a default shall prevent the exercise thereof by such Member or the Company while such default shall exist, and no such failure or delay shall operate as a waiver of any default.

(g) If a Member (including in its capacity as Manager) (the “Defaulting Party” ), receives a written notice that an Event of Default has occurred ( “Default Notice” ), such Defaulting Party may dispute the existence of an Event of Default by giving written notice (the “Dispute Notice” ) to the other Member (the “Alleging Party” ) within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Default Notice. The Defaulting Party’s failure to deliver the Dispute Notice shall be deemed the Defaulting Party’s waiver of any right to dispute the existence of the Event of Default set forth in the Default Notice, and the Alleging Party shall be permitted to exercise any and all rights and remedies under this Agreement. The Alleging Party may elect to pursue its action either in court or pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions in Section 15.8 (the “Dispute Resolution Provisions ”). The Defaulting Party shall have no right to require that such matter be resolved under the Dispute Resolution Provisions. If the Defaulting Party timely disputes the occurrence of an Event of Default within five (5) Business Days as provided in this Section 11.2(g) , the Alleging Party shall not be permitted to effect a Change of Control or unilaterally cause the liquidation of the Company under Section 11.2(a)(iii) prior to the expiration of the Term unless the Alleging Party has obtained a ruling, order, judgment or determination from a court, referee or arbitrator. For avoidance of doubt, during the dispute proceedings, subject to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, the Alleging Party is permitted to make and/or seek (and the court, referee or arbitrator is permitted to grant) any motion, redress, request, pleading, injunction or other ruling or order to require an immediate Change of Control, liquidation or enforcement of any other right or remedy under this Agreement, law or in equity. During any dispute proceedings, the Investment Period shall be suspended, and in addition to the other Major Decisions, without the consent of the Executive Committee, Manager shall not (i) enter into, or consummate, any Capital Transactions, (ii) engage counsel on behalf of the Company, (iii) file, or settle any lawsuits or other proceedings, or confess a judgment, (iv) make or commit to make any capital expenditure, (v) select any sales agent or enter into any listing agreement, (vi) enter into any construction or renovation contract, or (vii) pay, declare or set aside any distribution by the Company. Manager understands and acknowledges that the intent of this provision is to maintain the status quo of the Company and the Properties during any dispute proceedings (and not incur any additional liabilities or obligations unless such actions are necessary and imminent to protect the safety, value and condition of the Properties). During any dispute proceedings, the APFC Member may require that the Investment Manager “shadow” all of Manager’s and Property Manager’s

operations, and Manager shall (and shall cause Property Manager to) cooperate with any requests made by the APFC Member in this respect. This Section 11.2(g) shall not apply to a Change of Control upon the occurrence of the events described in Section 11.3 ( i.e. , the Defaulting Party shall not be permitted to dispute a Change of Control if the basis for such Change of Control is a Bankruptcy/Dissolution Event).

Section 11.3. Change of Control upon Manager Bankruptcy/Dissolution Event .

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, effective immediately and automatically upon the occurrence of any Bankruptcy/Dissolution Event with respect to Manager, Manager shall be removed as, and cease to be, Manager.

(b) The Members recognize that (i) Manager’s role as Manager of the Company and the performance of such role in accordance with this Agreement is personal in nature, (ii) the APFC Member is relying on the reputation of Manager and its personnel for quality project management, market knowledge, marketing capabilities, reliability and integrity and (iii) the APFC Member is excused from accepting the performance in such regard of a party other than Manager. The Members agree that the provisions of this Agreement relating to Manager’s responsibility as Manager and any compensation to Manager for such activities (collectively, the “Management Provisions” ) constitute a nonassignable contract under Section 365(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, or any amendment or successor thereto (the “Bankruptcy Code” ). Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 11.3 shall be null and void.

(c) Further, in the event any Bankruptcy/Dissolution Event occurs with respect to Manager and this Agreement has not been terminated, the Members agree that (i) adequate protection of the APFC Member’s interest in the Company requires that Manager timely comply with all of the terms of this Agreement and (ii) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy/Dissolution Event with respect to Manager shall constitute a default of the Management Provisions that cannot be cured by Manager under Section 365(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the APFC Member shall be entitled to exercise its rights under this Article 11 , and, if required, Manager consents to relief from the automatic stay of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code to permit such exercise.

Section 11.4. Change of Control upon Other Events .

(a) Subject to Section 11.2(g) , the occurrence of any Event of Default by Manager or the American Member (other than a Bankruptcy/Dissolution Event with respect to Manager) shall constitute a “Change in Control Trigger Event” .

(b) At any time on or after the occurrence of any Change in Control Trigger Event, the APFC Member shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to elect, by giving written notice to Manager, to remove the American Member as Manager. Effective immediately and automatically upon notification to Manager that the APFC Member has made such an election, the American Member shall be removed as, cease to be, and cease to have any rights as, Manager under this Agreement.

Section 11.5. Appointment of Substitute Manager . At any time on or after the first to occur of the following: (i) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy/Dissolution Event with respect to Manager, (ii) upon obtaining the written consent of the APFC Member,

the resignation of the American Member as Manager, or (iii) the APFC Member’s election to remove the American Member as Manager following the occurrence of a Change in Control Trigger Event, the APFC Member shall have the right, acting alone, and in its sole and absolute discretion, from time to time, to appoint itself and/or any other Person (which may be an Affiliate of the APFC Member) to the position of Manager of the Company. The APFC Member or any other Person which is appointed to the position of Manager pursuant to this Section 11.5 shall be referred to herein as the “Substitute Manager” . The Substitute Manager shall have the authority to take exclusive charge and control of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Substitute Manager shall have the unilateral right to amend the Annual Business Plan and Budget without the consent of the American Member or the American Member Representative; provided, however that the Substitute Manager shall not amend the Annual Business Plan and Budget so as to permit, or otherwise permit, the Company or any Subsidiary to take any action which is inconsistent with the purpose of the Company as set forth in Section 2.3 . Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, (x) if applicable, each Member hereby consents to the admission of the Substitute Manager as a Member of the Company and no further consent of any Member to such admission shall be required, and (y) the APFC Member may transfer all or any part of the APFC Member’s LLC Interest to any Person designated by the APFC Member as Substitute Manager, and no approval or consent of any Member shall be required to affect such transfer. This Agreement may be amended without the consent of the American Member to reflect the admission of the Substitute Manager.

Section 11.6. Certain Consequences of Change of Control . If the American Member is removed as Manager pursuant to this Article 11 (such change is referred to herein as a “ Change of Control ”):

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, effective upon the date of any Change of Control, no further Acquisition Fees, Renovation Fees, Property Management Fees, Overhead Fees or other fees shall be payable to the American Member or its Affiliate (other than those fees which have accrued, but have not been paid, as of the date of such Change of Control).

(b) The Company shall compensate the Substitute Manager for the services it performs at market rates (which may include a participation in Company proceeds and profits), as reasonably determined by the APFC Member (such compensation is referred to herein as the “Substitute Manager Compensation” ). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, any and all distributions which would otherwise be made to the American Member in respect of the AM Promote shall instead be applied by the Company to reimburse the Company for Net Substitute Manager Compensation paid by the Company, plus interest on any Net Substitute Manager Compensation paid by the Company ( i.e. , the Net Substitute Manager Compensation which has not been reimbursed to the Company pursuant to the terms of this Section 11.6(b) or otherwise paid by the American Member), at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, provided that, for all other purposes of this Agreement, such amounts shall be treated as if they had, in fact, been distributed to the American Member and then been used by the American Member to reimburse the Company for the Net Substitute Manager Compensation) until such time as all such Net Substitute Manager Compensation, including any interest accrued thereon, has been reimbursed to the Company in full. Subject to Section 11.7 , following the payment in full of the Net Substitute Manager Compensation and any other monetary damages

owed by the American Member, the American Member shall be entitled to receive any remaining AM Promote in excess of such amount. If the Net Substitute Manager Compensation exceeds the full amount of the AM Promote, the excess amount shall be shared by the Members pro rata in proportion to their Capital Ratios. The foregoing is not intended to act as a limitation on damages payable by the American Member, and the American Member shall remain liable for any other damages caused by the American Member’s breach(es) in addition to the Net Substitute Manager Compensation. By way of example only, if (A) the Net Substitute Manager Compensation is Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000), (B) the AM Promote is One Thousand Dollars ($1,000), and (C) Manager misappropriated funds of Three Thousand Dollars ($3,000), then the AM Promote shall be used to pay the first One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) of the Net Substitute Manager Compensation, the portion of the Net Substitute Manager Compensation in excess of the AM Promote ( i.e., One Thousand Dollars ($1,000)) shall be shared by the Members pro rata in proportion to their respective Capital Ratios and the damages of Three Thousand Dollars ($3,000) caused by Manager’s misappropriation shall be a liability of the American Member and may be offset against any distributions to the American Member (including, distributions in respect of its economic interest and its promote interest, if any). Any payment by the American Member pursuant to this Section 11.6(b) shall be characterized as an expense of the American Member outside of the Company and therefore shall not (i) be deemed a Capital Contribution or loan by the American Member to the Company, (ii) increase the American Member’s Book Capital Account, or (iii) entitle the American Member to the recoupment of, or the payment of any interest, charge or other consideration for, funds used to make such payment.

(c) The American Member shall not by reason of any Change of Control be released from any liability which the American Member may have to the APFC Member, the Company and/or any other Person by reason of the breach, if any, by the American Member of its obligations under this Agreement prior to the Change of Control.

(d) All bank accounts, contracts, deposits, accounts or other evidences of any rights of the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be transferred to the name or control of the Substitute Manager as the Substitute Manager shall direct and the American Member agrees to cooperate in good faith with the Substitute Manager and to promptly execute such instruments and take such actions as the Substitute Manager may request to effect such transfer; provided that the Substitute Manager may execute any and all such documents in the name of the American Member pursuant to the power of attorney referenced below.

(e) The Company shall indemnify, defend and save harmless the Substitute Manager and its direct and indirect shareholders, officers, directors, managers, members, partners, employees, agents, Affiliates, successors and assigns, from and against any and all Claims/Damages suffered or incurred by any of them by reason of any act performed or omitted to be performed as Substitute Manager in connection with the activities of the Company or in dealing with third parties on behalf of the Company, provided that the act or omission of Substitute Manager was taken in its capacity as Substitute Manager and determined by it, in good faith, to be in the best interests of the Company and does not constitute a criminal act, fraud, or gross negligence and provided further that any such indemnification shall be recoverable only from assets of the Company and no Member shall have any personal liability on account thereof.

(f) The American Member hereby grants to the APFC Member its irrevocable power of attorney, which shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest, which may not be revoked until the cancellation of the Company. Such power of attorney empowers the APFC Member to take such acts and to execute such instruments as are necessary or appropriate to effectuate a prompt and smooth transition of the management of the Company and the Properties from the American Member to the Substitute Manager, including in connection with the following: (i) the transfer of control of the bank accounts and contract rights of the Company and any Subsidiary, including the Capital Expenditures Account, the Operating Account, all subsidiary capital expenditure accounts and all deposits with public utilities or governmental authorities and any general construction contract between the Company (or a Subsidiary) and any general contractors and all contracts thereunder with subcontractors, materialmen and suppliers to the Properties; (ii) all ministerial or discretionary governmental permits or entitlements issued to the Company in connection with the Properties, including zoning approvals, use permits, variances, building permits, grading permits, environmental permits and the like; (iii) any instrument or action required by any lender to the Company or the Properties, (iv) all easement or license rights of the Company (other than trademarks owned separately by the American Member or its Affiliates), as well as the benefit of any covenants, conditions or restrictions running in favor of the Company or the Properties, (v) terminate any or all of the agreements with any Affiliates of the American Member, including the Property Management Agreement, without the incurrence or payment of any fee or penalty (other than those fees which accrued prior to the date of termination), and (vi) exercise any other statutory, common law or contract right of the Company.

(g) From and after a Change in Control Trigger Event, except as provided in this Section 11.6(g) , neither the American Member nor its Authorized Representative shall have any power, authority or right to vote, approve or act for or bind the Company with respect to any matter in connection with the Company or its operation, including any right to vote on matters presented to the Executive Committee (and thereafter the action of the Executive Committee shall be based solely on the vote of the APFC Representatives). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the American Member shall have the right to approve the following matters after a Change in Control Trigger Event:

(i) admit a Person as a Member of the Company, except as specifically provided herein (for avoidance of doubt, the consent of the American Member shall not be required to admit the Substitute Manager as a Member or for any amendments to this Agreement in connection therewith);

(ii) take any action or execute any documents which would create recourse or other personal liability to the American Member or its Affiliates;

(iii) distribution of any property in kind;

(iv) any action outside the purposes specified in Section 2.3 , such as entering into a transaction that is unrelated to its purpose;

(v) amend this Agreement, except as specifically provided herein; and

(vi) the sale or lease of property to, and any agreement or contract with, the APFC Member or its Affiliate that is not based on arms-length terms.

(h) The provisions of this Article 11 shall take precedence over any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement.

Section 11.7. Forfeiture of AM Promote Upon Bad Conduct . Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Event of Default on the part of the American Member (in its capacity as Manager or as Member) is based on actions attributable to the Key Persons constituting fraud or willful or wanton misconduct (including, without limitation, intentional misappropriation, intentional misapplication of funds or intentional breach), then the American Member’s right to receive the AM Promote shall be immediately and irrevocably forfeited by the American Member in its entirety, without any compensation, distribution or other payment.

Except as provided below in Section 12.6 , Manager shall act as the liquidator (the “Liquidator” ) and shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and dissolution of the Company (and shall be bound by all duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement in its

capacity as Manager). Liquidator shall take full account of the Company’s assets and liabilities, and the Company’s affairs shall be wound up in an orderly manner as determined by the Liquidator in the exercise of Due Care. Liquidator will formulate a plan for the orderly liquidation of the Properties then owned by the Company and shall solicit the input of the other Member in formulating such plan. If approved by the Executive Committee, the liquidation may involve sales of small portfolios or larger portfolios of Properties or all of the Properties as a group. Liquidator shall (1) implement such plan and shall offer the Properties for sale on such commercially reasonable terms and conditions as the Members shall agree, and (2) unless the Members otherwise agree, shall retain one or more third party brokers with at least ten (10) years’ experience in the sale and marketing of real estate to market the Properties.

(b) No Member shall resign from the Company prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Company in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 12.6. Delay in Winding Up . If the American Member is serving as the Liquidator, the failure of the Liquidator to meet the following thresholds shall constitute a Change in Control Trigger Event under Section 11.4 : (a) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Properties (measured both by the value of the Properties and the quantities of the Properties) are not sold prior to the end of the first (1 st ) anniversary of the Liquidating Event, (b) an additional twenty-five percent (25%) of the Properties (measured both by the value of the Properties and the quantities of the Properties) are not sold prior to the end of the second (2 nd ) anniversary the Liquidating Event, and (c) the balance of the Properties are not sold prior to the end of the third (3 rd ) anniversary of the Liquidating Event. Upon the occurrence of the Change in Control Trigger Event, the APFC Member shall be permitted to exercise the rights under

Sections 11.5 and 11.6 and the Substitute Manager shall be appointed as Liquidator. If certain Properties are not able to be sold prior to the three (3) year anniversary due to the fact that the sales price would be below one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Property Acquisition and Renovation Costs (the “ Below Market Properties ”) and Manager is unable to obtain the approval of the Executive Committee to lower the sales price, then (a) a Change in Control Trigger Event shall not be deemed to have occurred after the three (3) year anniversary if the Below Market Properties are the only Properties which have not then been sold, and (b) Liquidator shall have such additional time as may be reasonably necessary to sell the Below Market Properties after the Executive Committee approves the lower sale prices.

Section 12.7. Prior to Liquidation . If any non-defaulting Member elects, the Members shall meet within ten (10) days after the occurrence of the Liquidation Event to discuss a purchase and sale of either Member’s interest in the Company to the other Member. Neither Member shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to a purchase and sale of membership interest, and any Member may terminate discussions at any time for any reason or no reason whatsoever. If either Member elects not to proceed with a purchase and sale or otherwise terminates discussions, Manager and Liquidator shall continue the liquidation of the Company in accordance with other provisions contained in this Article 12 .

ARTICLE 14
TERMS REGARDING PUBLIC OFFERING

Section 14.1. Public Offering .

(a) The American Member and its Affiliates shall not reorganize the Company into a publicly traded REIT or UPREIT (the “Listing” ), either alone or together with the American Member and any of its Affiliates unless approved by the APFC Member (which approval shall be in the APFC Member’s sole and absolute discretion and may be conditioned on any acts or events so determined by the APFC Member). If, and only if the APFC Member approves the Company’s participation in the Listing in writing, each Member and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws to effect the Listing. In the event of the Company’s participation in a Listing, each Member shall cooperate in good faith and adopt any amendments to any documents or agreements to which the Company is a party as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of such Listing, except for any amendment that would have an adverse effect on the rights and privileges of such Member.

(b) It is understood by the Members that, subsequent to a Listing, Manager may not be able to effect the provisions of this Agreement, in which case Manager shall not be in breach of its obligations under this Agreement in connection therewith so long as it uses commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company to effect each Major Decision and take such other actions as are required to fulfill Manager’s obligations under this Agreement, and refrain from taking any action, expending any sum or incurring any obligation with respect to a matter that is a Major Decision but that has not been approved by the Executive Committee or that is otherwise prohibited pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 15.11. Severability . If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provisions to other Persons or circumstances shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained contrary contained herein or any other agreement related to this Agreement, and regardless of whether the APFC Member receives a request for information under the Public Disclosure Laws, each Member may routinely disclose to the public the following information in the ordinary course: (i) the name and address of the Members; (ii) the name, address, investment focus and vintage year of the Company; (iii) information about the date and term of this Agreement; (iv) the dollar amount of the commitment made by the APFC Member and the American Member to the Company; (v) the value of the Properties contributed by the American Member and how they were valued; (vi) the dollar amount of Capital Contributions made by the Members; (vii) the dollar amount, on a Fiscal Year-end basis, of cash distributions received by the Members; (viii) the net internal rate of return and time-weighted return of each Member’s investment; (ix) the dollar amount of the total fees and expenses paid to the American Member and its Affiliates on an annual Fiscal Year-end basis; (x) the aggregate remaining value of the LLC Interests; (xi) the book value and market value of, and the amount of realized and unrealized gains and losses with respect to, the LLC Interests; and (xii) aggregate information about the Properties.

(b) Any Member may disclose information to the extent such information is in the public domain through no fault of such Member or its Affiliates.

(c) Any Member may disclose information to the extent imposed by any applicable Governmental Requirements, legal process or the rules of any national securities exchange or automated quotation system

(d) Any Member may disclose information to defend, institute or enforce such Member’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or any related agreements.

(e) Any Member may disclose information to such Member’s Affiliates, legal counsel, accountants, financial advisors, board, trustees, lenders, members, shareholders, partners, investors and any prospective investors.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members and their Affiliates (and their respective officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and agents) are permitted to disclose the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any materials, opinions or analyses relating to such tax treatment or tax structure, but without disclosure of identifying information or, except to the extent relating to such tax structure or tax treatment, any nonpublic commercial or financial information). Moreover, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, there shall be no limitation on the Members’ or their Affiliates’ ability (or the ability of their respective officers, directors, employees, accountants,

counsel, consultants, advisors and agents) to consult any tax adviser regarding the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 15.14. Authorship . The Members agree that the terms and language of this Agreement were the result of negotiations between the Members and their respective advisors and, as a result, there shall be no presumption that any ambiguities in this Agreement shall be resolved against any Members.

Section 15.15. Immunity . Manager and the Members hereby acknowledge that the APFC Member reserves all immunities, defenses, rights or actions arising out of its sovereign or governmental status or under the Eleventh Amendment to the United States Constitution, except to the extent waived by statute. No waiver of any such reserved immunities, defenses, rights or actions shall be implied or otherwise deemed to exist by reason of its entry into this Agreement or any other agreement related thereto, by any express or implied provision thereof or by any actions or omissions to act by the APFC Member or any representative or agent of the APFC Member, whether taken pursuant to the Agreements or prior to the APFC Member’s entry into the Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all issues of law with respect to this Agreement, or any other agreement related thereto relating to the governmental authority and the sovereign and governmental immunities on behalf of the APFC Member must be resolved and enforced according to the laws of the State of Alaska without resort to any jurisdictions conflict of law rules or doctrines, but only to the extent such issues address matters with respect to and are required to be so resolved and enforced under Alaska law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the APFC Member acknowledges that it has a valid and binding obligation to make Capital Contributions as provided herein.
