Managers Authority We authorize you, acting as Manager, to (i) negotiate, execute and deliver the Underwriting Agreement, (ii) exercise all authority and discretion granted by the Underwriting Agreement and take all action you deem desirable in connection with this Agreement and the Underwriting Agreement including, but not limited to, waiving performance or satisfaction by the Company, any selling security holder or any other party to the Underwriting Agreement of its or their obligations or conditions included in the Underwriting Agreement or the Terms Communication (including this Agreement), if in your judgment such waiver will not have a material adverse effect upon the interests of the Underwriters and exercising any right of cancellation or termination, (iii) modify, vary or waive any provision in the Underwriting Agreement except the amount of Our Securities or the purchase price (except you may determine the price by Formula Pricing where applicable), (iv) determine the timing and the terms of the Offering (including varying the offering terms and the concessions and discounts to dealers), (v) exercise any option relating to the purchase of Option Securities, and (vi) take all action you deem desirable in connection with the Offering and the purchase, carrying, sale and distribution of the Securities. If there are other Managers with respect to an Offering, you may take any action hereunder alone on behalf of the Managers, and our representations, agreements and authorizations given herein shall also be for the benefit of such other Manager to whom you may grant any of your authority to act hereunder. You may arrange for the purchase by others, who may include your or other Underwriters, of any Securities not taken up by an Underwriter in respect of its obligations hereunder who defaults under this Agreement and/or the Underwriting Agreement. We will assume our proportionate share of all defaulted obligations not assumed by others and any Securities so assumed shall be included in Our Securities. However, nothing in this paragraph will affect our liability or obligations in the event of a default by us or any other Underwriter(s). You may advertise the Offering as you determine and determine all matters relating to communications with dealers or others. We will not advertise the Offering without your consent, and we assume all expense and risk with respect to any advertising by us. Notwithstanding any information you furnish as to jurisdictions where you believe the Securities may be sold, you have no obligation for qualification of the Securities for sale under the laws of any jurisdiction. You may file a New York Further State Notice. You have no liability to us except for your own lack of good faith in meeting obligations expressly assumed by you hereunder.
Restrictions on General Partner’s Authority A. The General Partner may not take any action in contravention of an express prohibition or limitation of this Agreement without the written Consent of the Limited Partners and the Special Limited Partner, and may not (i) perform any act that would subject a Limited Partner to liability as a general partner in any jurisdiction or any other liability except as provided herein or under the Act; or (ii) enter into any contract, mortgage, loan or other agreement that prohibits or restricts, or has the effect of prohibiting or restricting, the ability of a Limited Partner to exercise its rights to a Redemption in full, except in each case with the written consent of such Limited Partner.
B. The General Partner shall not, without the prior Consent of the Partners (in addition to any Consent of the Limited Partners required by any other provision hereof), or except as provided in Section 7.3D, amend, modify or terminate this Agreement.
C. The General Partner may not cause the Partnership to take any action which the General Partner would be prohibited from taking directly under the General Partner’s bylaws as in effect from time to time.
D. Notwithstanding Section 7.3B, the General Partner shall have the exclusive power to amend this Agreement as may be required to facilitate or implement any of the following purposes:
(1) to add to the obligations of the General Partner or surrender any right or power granted to the General Partner or any Affiliate of the General Partner for the benefit of the Limited Partners;
(2) to reflect the issuance of additional Partnership Interests pursuant to Sections 4.4B and 5.4 or the admission, substitution, termination, or withdrawal of Partners in accordance with this Agreement (which may be effected through the replacement of Exhibit A with an amended Exhibit A);
(3) to set forth or amend the designations, rights, powers, duties and preferences of the holders of any additional Partnership Interests issued pursuant to Article 4;
(4) to reflect a change that is of an inconsequential nature and does not adversely affect the Limited Partners in any material respect, or to cure any ambiguity, correct or supplement any provision in this Agreement not inconsistent with law or with other provisions, or make other changes with respect to matters arising under this Agreement that will not be inconsistent with law or with the provisions of this Agreement;
(5) to satisfy any requirements, conditions, or guidelines contained in any order, directive, opinion, ruling or regulation of a federal or state agency or contained in federal or state law;
(6) to reflect such changes as are reasonably necessary for the General Partner to maintain its status as a REIT, including changes which may be necessitated due to a change in applicable law (or an authoritative interpretation thereof) or a ruling of the IRS;
(7) to modify, as set forth in the definition of “Capital Account,” the manner in which Capital Accounts are computed; and
(8) to amend or modify any provision of this Agreement to reflect a statutory or regulatory change regarding the federal income tax treatment of the “profits interest” of the Special Limited Partner or to ensure that the receipt of the Special Limited Partner’s profits interest will not result in taxation to the Special Limited Partner. The General Partner will provide notice to the Limited Partners when any action under this Section 7.3D is taken.
E. Notwithstanding Sections 7.3B and 7.3D, this Agreement shall not be amended with respect to any Partner adversely affected, and no action may be taken by the General Partner, without the Consent of such Partner adversely affected if such amendment or action would (i) convert a Limited Partner’s interest in the Partnership into a general partner’s interest (except as the result of the General Partner acquiring such interest), (ii) modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner, (iii) alter rights of the Partner to receive distributions pursuant to Article 5 or Section 13.2A(4), or the allocations specified in Article 6 (except as permitted pursuant to Sections 4.4, 5.4, and Section 7.3D(2)), (iv) materially alter or modify the rights to a Redemption or the REIT Shares Amount as set forth in Section 8.6, and related definitions hereof, or (v) amend this Section 7.3E. Further, no amendment may alter the restrictions on the General Partner’s authority set forth elsewhere in this Section 7.3 or in Section 11.2A without the Consent specified in such section. This Section 7.3E does not require unanimous consent of all Partners adversely affected unless the amendment is to be effective against all partners adversely affected.
