Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

      On May 31, 2005, AIMCO-GP, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company, a Maryland corporation (“Aimco”), and the general partner of AIMCO Properties, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Aimco Operating Partnership”), entered into the Forty-Seventh Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Aimco Operating Partnership, as amended (the “Forty-Seventh Amendment”). The Forty-Seventh Amendment designates the Class VIII High Performance Partnership Units (the “Class VIII Units”).

      The specific characteristics of the Class VIII Units are as follows:

  •   The Class VIII Units have a three-year measurement period starting on January 1, 2005 and ending December 31, 2007.

  •   The Class VIII Units will have nominal value unless the Aimco total return for the measurement period (dividend income plus share price appreciation) exceeds 115% of the cumulative total return of the Morgan Stanley REIT Index and has a cumulative total return of at least 36.8% (equivalent to 11% per year compounded).

  •   The amount, if any, by which the total return of the Class A Common Stock of Aimco (the “Common Stock”) over the measurement period exceeds the applicable total return hurdle will be considered the “Outperformance Return.” Outperformance Return multiplied by Aimco’s average market capitalization will be considered “Outperformance Stockholder Value Added” for stockholders.

  •   If the minimum total return hurdle is met as of December 31, 2007, the holders of the 5,000 Class VIII Units will thereafter receive distributions and allocations of income and loss at the same time and in the same amount (subject to certain exceptions upon liquidation of the Aimco Operating Partnership) as a number of common partnership units in the Aimco Operating Partnership (the “OP Units”) equal to (i) 5% of Outperformance Stockholder Value Added, divided by (ii) the average volume weighted price of Common Stock over the 20 trading days ending on the determination date (subject to a 1% limit on dilution).

  •   The Class VIII Units are not redeemable unless there is a change of control of Aimco, in which case they may be redeemed by the holder for cash, or, at Aimco’s option, Common Stock.

      A copy of the Forty-Seventh Amendment is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
