Owner hereby hires Property Manager as the exclusive manager of the Property upon the terms and conditions herein stated, and Property Manager hereby accepts said engagement, for a term beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending at 12:00 midnight on the one-year anniversary of the beginning date, unless sooner terminated by Owner or Property Manager as provided in Article 10 of this Agreement. At the expiration of said term, this Agreement, if not renewed in writing by Owner and Property Manager, shall then be deemed a month-to-month agreement cancelable by either party on not less than thirty (30) days’ advance written notice, which notice may be given at any time during a month, provided that in any event the cancellation shall be effective at the end of the calendar month in which the thirty (30) day notice period ends.

2.02. Services of Property Manager. Property Manager shall direct, supervise, manage,

operate, maintain and repair the Property and develop, institute and follow programs and policies to facilitate the efficient operation of the Property in compliance with this Agreement, the Rental Guidelines and all written directions of Owner on as profitable a basis as reasonably possible. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject at all times to such procedures and directions that shall be set forth in this Agreement and the Rental Guidelines (as revised or amended from time to time), Property Manager shall do all of the following:

(a) Employees. Property Manager shall select, employ, pay, supervise and discharge all employees and personnel necessary for the operation, maintenance and protection of the Property (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.01 hereof). All persons so employed by Property Manager shall be employees of Property Manager or independent contractors retained by Property Manager, and not by Owner. All costs of gross salary and wages, payroll taxes, medical and dental insurance, worker’s compensation insurance, incentive leasing bonuses and other costs and employee benefit expenses payable on account of such employees, shall be included in the Approved Operating Budget. Property Manager shall fully comply with all applicable laws and regulations having to do with workers’ compensation, social security, unemployment insurance, hours of labor, wages, working conditions and other employer/employee-related subjects.

(b) Records and Budgets. Property Manager shall keep or cause to be kept at the Records Office suitable books of control and account as provided in this Agreement. Property Manager shall prepare on Microsoft Excel worksheets (using Yardi templates) and submit to Owner such monthly, quarterly, annual or other operating and capital budgets as shall be required by Owner. Without limitation, Property Manager shall prepare and submit to Owner a proposed operating budget and a proposed capital budget for the Property for the management and operation of the Property for the forthcoming Fiscal Year no later than November 1 of each year during the term hereof. All proposed operating budgets and capital budgets shall be on a form submitted by Property Manager and approved by Owner. Owner will consider the proposed budgets and endeavor to approve such budgets by December 1 of each year during the term hereof. The proposed budgets shall become the Approved Capital Budget and the Approved Operating Budget only when approved by Owner. Following approval by Owner the Approved Capital Budget and the Approved Operating Budget shall be promptly uploaded into the Yardi accounting system for the Property.

In the event an annual operating budget for a Property has not been approved by Owner prior to the commencement of any Fiscal Year during the term hereof, the operating budget for each month (the “Current Month”) until the annual operating budget is approved shall be the amount of the most recent Approved Operating Budget for the Property for the same calendar month (“Base Month”), as adjusted to reflect (a) any increase or decrease between the Base Month and the Current Month in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the metropolitan area in which the Property is located (base year 1982-84=100) published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics and (b) any increase or decrease in the occupancy of the Property between the Base Month and the Current Month and (c) any increase or decrease in the taxes, insurance and utilities of the Property.

Owner may revoke its approval of either Budget at any time upon twenty (20) days’ prior written notice to Property Manager. Owner may amend its approval of either Budget and cause the Budget to be amended to conform to such approval at any time upon twenty (20) days’ prior written notice to Property Manager and, in such event, only the Budget as so amended shall be deemed approved.

With respect to the first Fiscal Year of the term, if not a full twelve months, Property Manager shall submit to Owner for approval an operating and capital budget for the balance of such calendar year as soon as possible and no later than thirty (30) days after the date hereof.

Property Manager shall have the right, from time to time, during each calendar year to submit revised Budgets to Owner for approval. Property Manager agrees to use diligence and all reasonable efforts to ensure that the actual costs of maintaining and operating the Property shall not exceed the Approved Operating Budget or the Approved Capital Budget pertaining thereto, as applicable.

(c) Leasing. Property Manager shall coordinate the leasing activities of the Property and, subject to Section 9.03 below, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain responsible tenants for all unleased units and to renew existing leases at rental rates at least equal to the Rental Guidelines. Property Manager may negotiate and execute leases using the most current version of the National Apartment Association form of Apartment Lease for Minnesota. Any deviation from the standard lease forms or the Rental Guidelines shall require the prior written consent of Owner.

(d) Rent. Property Manager shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that all rents and all other monies payable under the leases are paid by the tenants of the Property as and when the same shall become due and payable directly to Property Manager. Property Manager shall adjust rentals and other required payments where adjustment is contemplated by the leases, shall notify Owner and tenants of such adjustments and shall sign and serve in the name of Owner such notices (except as limited by Section 2.02(e) below), including without limitation letters demanding past due and currently owed rents and other monies, as are deemed appropriate or necessary by Property Manager. Property Manager shall collect and identify any income due Owner from miscellaneous services provided to tenants or the public, including, but not limited to, parking income, tenant storage and cable television charges. All rents and other monies so collected by Property Manager shall be immediately deposited in the Property Bank Account (as defined below).

(e) Collections. Property Manager shall undertake the collection of rents and monetary payments of every kind and of any form due from tenants of the Property. Property Manager shall thereafter actively pursue collection of all such rent and payments. Except as allowed by applicable law, Property Manager shall not terminate any lease, lock out a tenant, institute a suit for rent or for use and occupancy, or institute proceedings for recovery of possession. In the event that any tenant at the Property shall be delinquent in any payment due to Owner beyond any applicable grace periods or otherwise be in default under the terms of its lease, Property Manager shall employ such methods as are

commercially reasonable to either collect unpaid rent or to evict the tenant from the premises. Property Manager shall employ a collection agency to pursue payment collection and, except as otherwise required by applicable law, shall utilize legal counsel only if a tenant refuses to vacate an apartment unit following proper notice. The commencement of any litigation (other than for routine residential tenant eviction and residential rent collection matters, including bringing suit for and recovery of any delinquent rents or damages and possession of the premises in the name of Owner as an agent with a beneficial interest), shall require the prior written approval of Owner. In connection with all suits or proceedings (other than for routine residential tenant eviction and residential rent collection matters, including bringing suit for and recovery of any delinquent rents or damages and possession of the premises in the name of Owner as an agent with a beneficial interest), only legal counsel approved by Owner shall be retained, but Property Manager shall recommend legal counsel and furnish Owner with the estimated costs of legal services to be incurred in bringing such suit or proceeding.

(f) Maintenance. Property Manager shall maintain or cause to be maintained (to the extent not maintained by tenants) the Property and common areas thereof, external and internal, including, without limitation, sidewalks, signs, mechanical, electrical and other systems, parking lots and landscaping, in good and clean condition and repair, provided no maintenance expense, repairs or alterations other than emergency repairs, which are not specifically identified within the Approved Operating Budget, shall be undertaken without the prior written consent of Owner. Property Manager shall coordinate and supervise all construction activities (including, without limitation, tenant improvements, tenant refurbishment, common area refurbishment, maintenance and repairs) on the Property. All maintenance expenses, repairs or alterations (including, without limitation, alterations required for the occupancy of new tenants) requiring expenditures in excess of $25,000 shall, at Owner’s election, be planned and supervised by an architect, designer, inspector or general contractor designated by Property Manager and approved in writing by Owner. Property Manager shall institute and effectuate a preventative maintenance program. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of an emergency in which there is an immediate danger to persons or property or in which action is required in order to avoid suspension of services, Property Manager shall take such action as is reasonable and prudent under the circumstances and shall be reimbursed for any expense incurred in such action, even if not in the Approved Operating Budget, so long as Property Manager attempts to consult with Owner in advance and, in any event, notifies Owner within 48 hours of taking such action explaining the reasons therefor. Property Manager shall obtain all necessary receipts, releases, waivers, discharges and assurances necessary to keep the Property free of any mechanics’, laborers’, materials suppliers’ or vendors’ liens in connection with the maintenance or operation of the Property. All such documentation shall be in such form as required by Owner.

(g) Contracts. Property Manager shall not enter into any contract without Owner’s prior written approval (including approval of the provisions of any equipment lease); provided, however, that Owner’s prior written approval shall not be required with respect to any utility or service contract which is (i) entered into in the usual course of business, (ii) for a term of one year or less, and (iii) specifically provided for in the Approved Operating Budget. Without limiting the foregoing, each contract entered into by

Property Manager pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) shall contain a thirty (30) day (or less) cancellation clause exercisable by Owner without cause and without penalty or fee, unless otherwise approved in writing by Owner. All utility, supply, service, vending and related contracts or equipment leases are to be entered into by Property Manager on behalf of Owner. Property Manager shall assure that any contractor performing work on the Property maintains insurance satisfactory to Owner, including, but not limited to, Workers’ Compensation Insurance (and, when required by law, compulsory Non-Occupational Disability Insurance) and insurance against liability for injury to persons and property arising out of all such contractor’s operations naming Property Manager and Owner as additional insureds. Property Manager shall obtain certificates of insurance for all such insurance before the work begins. Property Manager shall furnish copies of the certificates to Owner if requested by Owner.

(h) Purchases. Property Manager shall supervise and purchase or arrange for the purchase of all reasonable inventories, provisions, supplies and operating equipment which are provided for in the Approved Operating Budget or otherwise specifically approved by Owner in writing. To the extent available, Property Manager shall give, or obtain for Owner, all volume purchasing benefits and discounts available to Property Manager or to properties of the size and class of the Property.

(i) Operating Expenses. Property Manager shall pay all normal operating expenses specifically provided for in the Approved Operating Budget not paid for by tenants of the Property in a manner commercially reasonable for the Property from funds in the Property Bank Account described in Section 7.01(a). Property Manager shall recommend that Owner purchase major items of new or replacement equipment when Property Manager believes such purchase to be necessary or desirable. Owner may arrange to purchase and install such items itself or may authorize Property Manager to do so subject to any supervision and specification requirements and conditions prescribed by Owner. Prior to purchasing, Property Manager must obtain Owner’s specific written authorization for all capital expenditures that are not included in the Approved Capital Budget as well as for all capital expenditures of $25,000 or more that are included and itemized with specificity in any one (1) line item in the Approved Capital Budget. Unless otherwise directed by Owner, Property Manager shall obtain at least three (3) written estimates from qualified bidders for any capital improvement project if the cost of such project is reasonably expected to exceed $25,000. All capital improvement projects requiring expenditures in excess of $25,000 shall, at Owner’s election, be planned and supervised by an architect, designer, inspector or general contractor designated by Property Manager and approved in writing by Owner.

Owner may elect to pay some or all of such bills for Taxes and, in such event, Property Manager shall remit all bills for Taxes to Owner not less than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the date on which each becomes delinquent. Upon Property Manager’s receipt of written notice from Owner of Owner’s election to pay a xxxx for Taxes, Property Manager shall pay such xxxx not less than fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the date on which it becomes delinquent. If Owner decides to contest any Taxes, Owner shall advise Property Manager and Property Manager shall not pay such Taxes until directed by Owner.

All such licenses, permits, consents and authorizations shall be in the name of Property Manager.

(o) Notice and Cooperation in Legal Proceedings. Owner and Property Manager shall forthwith give notice to each other of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against Owner or against Property Manager with respect to the operations of the Property or otherwise affecting the Property. Property Manager shall fully cooperate, and shall cause all its employees to fully cooperate, in connection with the prosecution or defense of all legal proceedings affecting the Property.

(p) Other Complaints and Notices. Property Manager shall handle promptly complaints and requests from tenants, concessionaires and licensees and notify Owner of any major complaint made by a tenant, concessionaire or licensee.

With respect to the first Fiscal Year of the term, Property Manager shall submit to Owner for approval a draft of a business plan for the balance of such calendar year as soon as possible and no later than thirty (30) days after the date hereof. In addition, Property Manager shall participate in Owner’s property review programs to the extent requested by Owner.

(r) General. Property Manager shall afford such supervision, professional management and in-house staff services as may be necessary or desirable to operate the Property in the same manner as is customary and usual in the operation of other properties of substantially comparable location, class, size and standing, and shall provide such services at

the Property as are consistent with the Property’s size and existing facilities. Subject only to those express limitations set forth in this Agreement, Property Manager shall have control and discretion in the management and operation of the Property and in the performance of the foregoing services. Without limiting the foregoing, if applicable, Property Manager shall review and, if so directed by Owner, conduct an audit of each retail tenant’s compliance with its obligation to pay a percentage rent or any other amount determined on the basis of the tenant’s sales or gross or net income.

3.03. Noncustomary Services. Notwithstanding anything provided in this Agreement to the contrary, Property Manager shall not furnish or render to the tenants of the Property services other than those services customarily furnished to tenants of properties similar to the Property unless: (a) Property Manager makes a separate, adequate charge to tenants for such services; (b) such separate charge is received and retained by Property Manager; (c) Property Manager bears the cost of providing such services; (d) Property Manager first obtains the consent in writing of Owner; and (e) Property Manager certifies in writing to Owner that (i) Property Manager qualifies as an independent contractor with respect to Owner (and Owner’s direct and indirect beneficial owners) under Section 856(d)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and (ii) Owner (and Owner’s direct and indirect beneficial owners) does not derive or receive any income from Property Manager.
