Right to Exchange (i) Series K Preferred Units will be exchangeable in whole but not in part unless expressly otherwise provided herein at anytime on or after October 30, 2012, at the option of the holders of 51% of all outstanding Series K Preferred Units, for authorized but previously unissued Series K Preferred Shares at an exchange rate of one Series K Preferred Share from the General Partner for one Series K Preferred Unit, subject to adjustment as described below (the “Exchange Price”), provided that the Series K Preferred Units will become exchangeable at any time, in whole but not in part unless expressly otherwise provided herein, at the option of the holders of 51% of all outstanding Series K Preferred Units for Series K Preferred Shares if at any time full distributions shall not have been timely made on any Series K Preferred Unit with respect to six (6) prior quarterly distribution periods, whether or not consecutive, provided, however, that a distribution in respect of Series K Preferred Units shall be considered timely made if made within two (2) Business Days after the applicable Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date if at the time of such late payment there shall not be any prior quarterly distribution periods in respect of which full distributions were not timely made. Furthermore, the Series K Preferred Units, if the holders of 51% of all outstanding Series K Preferred Units so determine, may be exchanged in whole but not in part (regardless of whether held by one or more holders) for Series K Preferred Shares if (1) the holders of 51% of all outstanding Series K Preferred Units conclude based on results or projected results that there exists (in the reasonable judgment of such holder) an imminent and substantial risk that the holder’s interest in the Partnership represents or will represent more than the 19.5% Limit, (2) such holders deliver to the General Partner an opinion of independent counsel to the effect that there is a substantial risk that its interest in the Partnership does not or will not satisfy the 19.5% Limit and (3) the General Partner agrees with the conclusions referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of this sentence, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that if, as a result of such conclusion, such holders’ interest in the Partnership is reduced pursuant to the last sentence of Section 19.7 hereof (which procedure shall be available to such holders to the exclusion of the procedure under this sentence for so long as, on a cumulative basis, sales of 10% or fewer of the Series K Preferred Units originally issued by the Partnership would in the opinion of the above-referenced counsel reduce the risk that such holders’ interest in the Partnership would not satisfy the 19.5% Limit to less than a substantial risk, and thereafter shall be a permitted alternative to the procedure pursuant to this sentence) or the risk of such holder not satisfying the 19.5% Limit otherwise is reduced below a substantial risk, then an exchange in whole under this sentence shall not be permitted unless and until a change in facts occurs and a further determination by such holders is made under this sentence.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 19.8.A(i), if an Exchange Notice (as defined herein) has been delivered to the General Partner, then the General Partner may, at its option, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Exchange Notice, elect to cause the Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the outstanding Series K Preferred Units for cash in an amount equal to the original Capital Contribution per Series K Preferred Unit and all accrued and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of redemption. If the General Partner elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Series K Preferred Units, the number of Series K Preferred Units held by each holder to be redeemed shall equal such holder’s pro rata share (based on the percentage of the aggregate number of outstanding Series K Preferred Units that the total number of Series K Preferred Units held by such holder represents) of the aggregate number of Series K Preferred Units being redeemed.
(iii) In the event an exchange of all Series K Preferred Units pursuant to Section 19.8.A would violate the provisions on ownership limitation of the General Partner set forth in Section 7 of the Third Article of the Articles Supplementary to the Charter with respect to Series K Preferred Shares (the “Series K Articles Supplementary”), each holder of Series K Preferred Units shall be entitled to exchange, pursuant to the provisions of Section 19.8.B, a number of Series K Preferred Units which would comply with the provisions on the ownership limitation of the General Partner set forth in such Section 7 of the Series K Articles Supplementary, with respect to such holder, and any Series K Preferred Units not so exchanged (the “Excess Units”) shall be redeemed by the Partnership for cash in an amount equal to the original Capital Contribution per Excess Unit, plus any accrued and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of redemption subject to any restriction thereon contained in any debt instrument or agreement of the Partnership. In the event an exchange would result in Excess Units, as a condition to such exchange, each holder of such units agrees to provide representations and covenants reasonably requested by the General Partner relating to (i) the widely held nature of the interests in such holder, sufficient to assure the General Partner that the holder’s ownership of stock of the General Partner (without regard to the limits described above) will not cause any individual to own in excess of 9.0% of the stock of the General Partner; and (ii) to the extent such holder can so represent and covenant without obtaining information from its owners, the holder’s ownership of tenants of the Partnership and its affiliates. For purposes of determining the number of Excess Units under this Section 19.8.A(iii), the “Beneficial Ownership Limit” and “Constructive Ownership Limit” set forth in the Series K Articles Supplementary shall be deemed to be 9.0%. To the extent the General Partner would not be able to pay the cash set forth above in exchange for the Excess Units, and to the extent consistent with the Charter, the General Partner agrees that it will grant to the holders of the Series K Preferred Units exceptions to the Beneficial Ownership Limit and Constructive Ownership Limit set forth in the Series K Articles Supplementary sufficient to allow such holders to exchange all of their Series K Preferred Units for Series K Preferred Stock, provided such holders furnish to the General Partner representations acceptable to the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion which assure the General Partner that such exceptions will not jeopardize the General Partner’s tax status as a REIT for purposes of federal and applicable state law. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Series K Limited Partner shall be entitled to effect an exchange of Series K Preferred Units for Series K Preferred Shares to the extent that ownership or right to acquire such shares would cause the Partner or any other Person or, in the opinion of counsel selected by the General Partner, may cause the Partner or any other Person, to violate the restrictions on ownership and transfer of Series K Preferred Shares set forth in the Charter, taking into account any exceptions thereto granted by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Charter. To the extent any such attempted exchange for Series K Preferred Shares would be in violation of the previous sentence, it shall be void ab initio and such Series K Limited Partner shall not acquire any rights or economic interest in the Series K Preferred Shares otherwise issuable upon such exchange.
(iv) The redemption of Series K Preferred Units described in Section 19.8.A(ii) and (iii) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 19.5.B(i) and Section 19.5.C(ii); provided, however, that the term “Redemption Price” in such Sections 19.5.B(i) and 19.5.C(ii) shall be read to mean the original Capital Contribution per Series K Preferred Unit being redeemed as set forth on Exhibit A plus all accrued and unpaid distributions to the redemption date.
Optional Exchange (a) The terms and conditions, if any, of an Optional Exchange will be specified in the related Supplement; provided, however, that any right of Optional Exchange shall be exercisable only to the extent that the Depositor provides upon the Trustee's request an Opinion of Counsel that (i) such exchange would not be inconsistent with continued satisfaction of the applicable requirements for exemption under Rule 3a-7 (or other applicable rule or exemption) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and all applicable rules, regulations and interpretations thereunder and (ii) such exchange would not affect the characterization of the Trust as a "grantor trust" under the Code. The terms of an Optional Exchange may include, but are not limited to, the following:
(i) a requirement that the exchanging Holder tender to the Trustee Certificates of each Class within such Series;
(ii) a minimum Certificate Principal Balance or Notional Amount, as applicable, with respect to Certificates being tendered for exchange by a single Holder;

(v) limitations on the right of an exchanging Holder to receive any benefit upon Optional Exchange from any Credit Support; and
(vi) adjustments to the value of the proceeds of any Optional Exchange based upon required prepayment of future expense allocations and the establishment of a reserve for any unanticipated Extraordinary Trust Expenses.
(b) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Supplement, no Certificate may be exchanged pursuant to this Section 4.07 unless the Trustee has received at least 30 days (or such shorter period acceptable to the Trustee or specified in the applicable Supplement) but not more than 45 days prior to an Optional Exchange Date a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., the Depository (in accordance with its normal procedures) or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting forth the name of the Holder, the Certificate Principal Balance or Notional Amount of such Registered Certificate to be exchanged and the number or a description of the tenor and the terms of such Certificate, a statement that the Optional Exchange is being exercised thereby and an assurance that the Registered Certificate to be exchanged with the form entitled "Option to Elect Exchange" on the reverse of the Registered Certificate duly completed will be received by such Trustee not later than five Business Days after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter, and such Certificate and form duly completed must be received by such Trustee by such fifth Business Day. Any tender by the Holder thereof for Optional Exchange shall be irrevocable. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Supplement, the Optional Exchange option may be exercised pursuant to this Section 4.07 by the Holder of a Certificate for less than the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance or Notional Amount of such Certificate as long as the Certificate Principal Balance or Notional Amount remaining Outstanding after such Optional Exchange is an Authorized Denomination and all other requirements set forth in the related Supplement are satisfied. Upon such partial exchange, such Certificate shall be cancelled and a new Certificate or Certificates for the remaining Certificate Principal Balance or Notional Amount thereof shall be issued (which shall be in the name of the Holder of such exchanged Certificate).
(c) Upon the completion of any such Optional Exchange, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to each Rating Agency.
