a result of the Independent Activities of any other Member or its Affiliates, whether arising by statute, common law or in equity, the same are hereby waived.

Each Member hereby represents and warrants to each other Member that such Member has not been offered, as an inducement to enter into this Agreement, the opportunity to participate with any other Member or any Affiliate of such other Member in the ownership or profits of any Independent Activity of any kind whatsoever of such Member or its Affiliates other than as expressly set forth herein or in the Affiliate Agreement.

Each Member hereby expressly acknowledges, represents and warrants that (i) it is a sophisticated investor, (ii) it understands the terms, conditions and waivers set forth in this Section 1.9 and (iii) the provisions of this Section 1.9 are reasonable, taking into account the relative sophistication and bargaining position of the Members.

II. PERCENTAGE SHARE AND CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

2.1 Percentage Share. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.3(b) below, each Member’s (i) name, (ii) Initial Capital Contributions, and (iii) Percentage Share are set forth in Schedule I attached hereto and made a part hereof.

2.2 Initial Capital Contributions. It is acknowledged and agreed that, on or prior to the date hereof, the Members have funded or been deemed to have funded the aggregate amounts set forth on Schedule I as the Initial Capital Contributions of each Member.

2.3 Additional Capital Contributions. In addition to the Initial Capital Contributions described in Section 2.2 above, the Members shall make Additional Capital Contributions to the Company as follows:

(a) Capital Calls. The Managing Member shall maintain records of each Member’s Capital Account. Upon a determination by the Managing Member in accordance with

ACTIVE 203377524v.3

this Agreement that additional capital is required to fund (or in the event of any Non-Controllable Expenditures or Emergency Expenditure, if applicable, reimburse the Managing Member for) any Capital Call Expenditure, the Managing Member shall promptly give a notice (“Capital Call”) to the Members of the amount needed, and each Member shall remit good funds to the Company in proportion with its Percentage Share by the later of (i) ten (10) Business Days after receiving the Capital Call, or (ii) the date specified in the Capital Call. All capital contributed by a Member in excess of its Initial Capital Contributions shall be deemed an “Additional Capital Contribution” and shall be credited to each Member’s Capital Account.

(b) Failure to Make Additional Capital Contributions. If any of the Xxxxxx Members (a “Non-Contributing Member”) fails to timely contribute some or all of the funds requested in a Capital Call (the “Failed Contribution”), then the Managing Member may in its sole discretion, elect one of the following options by written notice to the Non‑Contributing Member (if such Non‑Contributing Member shall fail to fund its required Additional Capital Contribution within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice):

(i) The Managing Member may elect to rescind the Capital Call. Upon such election, any Additional Capital Contribution made by any Member in connection with the Capital Call shall be refunded to such Member (including the Managing Member). Upon such election, Managing Member shall be deemed to have elected to cancel the request for such Additional Capital Contribution. No Member shall thereafter have any continuing obligation to fund any Additional Capital Contribution covered by the cancelled Capital Call unless and until Managing Member makes a new Capital Call, which may list some or all of the items covered by the cancelled Capital Call.

(ii) Xxxxx may elect to fund its Percentage Share as an Additional Capital Contribution and in addition, to lend the Failed Contribution to the Non‑Contributing Member by delivering an amount equal to the Failed Contribution directly to the Company. The amount equal to the Failed Contribution shall be treated as a loan (a “Member Loan”) by Xxxxx to the Non‑Contributing Member and an Additional Capital Contribution from the Non‑Contributing Member to the Company. Such Member Loan shall bear interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum (computed on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed), compounded monthly to the extent not paid on or before the last day of each calendar month. Any Member Loan (to the extent of unpaid principal and interest) shall be recourse only to the Non‑Contributing Member’s Interest in the Company and shall be paid by the Company on behalf of the Non‑Contributing Member to Xxxxx in accordance with Section 3.1 hereof. Any such payment shall be treated for purposes of Sections 5.1 and 5.2 as having been distributed to the Non‑Contributing Member. The Non‑Contributing Member does hereby irrevocably appoint Managing Member, and any of its agents, officers or employees, as its attorneys-in-fact for the limited purpose of preparing and executing any documents, instruments and agreements (including any note) evidencing the Member Loan.

2.4 Limited Liability. Except upon the express written agreement of each Member adversely affected thereby, no Member (including the Managing Member) shall be personally

ACTIVE 203377524v.3

liable for the debts, liabilities, contracts or other obligations of the Company, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, solely by reason of being such Member (or Managing Member).

2.5 Withdrawal and Return of Capital; Interest on Capital. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have the right to withdraw any of its Capital Contributions or be entitled to receive any interest on its Capital Contributions.

2.6 No Third Party Rights. Nothing contained in any provision of this Agreement, shall be construed to create any rights or benefits in any Person, other than the Members, and their respective legal representatives and permitted transferees, successors and assigns, subject to the limitations on Transfer contained in Article VIII hereof.

2.7 Withdrawal. Except as specifically provided in Article VIII hereof, no Member may voluntarily or involuntarily withdraw from the Company or terminate its Interest therein without the prior written consent of the Managing Member. Any Member who withdraws from the Company in breach of this Section 2.7:

(d) shall be treated as a transferee of a Member’s Interest, as provided in the Act;

(e) shall have no right to participate in the business and affairs of the Company or to exercise any rights of a Member under this Agreement or the Act; and

(f) shall not be released from any obligation to the Company or the other Members under this Agreement.

III. DISTRIBUTIONS

3.1 Allocation of Distributions. Distributions of Net Cash Flow (“Distributions”) shall be made to the Members, as and when determined by the Managing Member subject to Section 3.2, as follows:

(g) 51.0% (or the Percentage Share of Xxxxx at the time of the Distribution) of each Distribution shall be distributed to Xxxxx.

(h) 49.0% (or the aggregate Percentage Shares of the Xxxxxx Members at the time of the Distribution) of each Distribution (the “Xxxxxx Distribution Share”) shall be distributed to the Xxxxxx Members. Provided, that the amount of the Xxxxxx Distribution Share shall be paid (i) first, to Xxxxx to the extent of any Losses for which Xxxxx has been determined by a final judgment or arbitral award to be entitled to indemnification under the Agreement of Merger; (ii) second, to Xxxxx to the extent of (A) accrued but unpaid interest on any Member Loan; and (B) any unpaid principal on such Member Loan; and (iii) third, the balance, if any, to the Xxxxxx Members. Further provided, that payments to Xxxxx on Member Loans under clause (ii) shall be made only to the extent that such payments do not reduce the actual distributions of Net Cash from Operations to the Xxxxxx Members under this Section 3.1(b) to less than 50% of the Xxxxxx Unadjusted Distributions Amount. Further provided, that the preceding sentence shall not apply to Distributions of Net Cash from Refinancings or Distributions of Net Cash from

ACTIVE 203377524v.3

Sales. Any amounts paid to Xxxxx under clause (i) or clause (ii) shall be treated for all purposes as having been distributed to the Hocker Members and then paid by the Hocker Members to Xxxxx.

3.2 Timing of Distribution. Net Cash From Operations shall be distributed at such times as are reasonably determined by the Managing Member, but not less frequently than quarterly (each a “Distribution Period”).

6.10 Preparation of Proposed Annual Budgets. In connection with the management of the Company and the Subsidiary, the Managing Member shall be responsible for the following:

The Proposed Annual Budget, once approved by Xxxxxx pursuant to subclause (b) below, or modified as provided in subclause (b) below, shall be referred to herein as the “Approved Budget”. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Managing Member shall be authorized to make only those expenditures and take only those actions which are included in, or contemplated by, the Approved Budget then in effect; provided, however, that the Managing Member shall also be authorized to make those additional expenditures and take those actions excepted in Section 6.3.1(ii) and shall be authorized to make additional operating expenditures to the extent that such expenditures do not exceed the amounts set forth in the Approved Budget by more than ten percent (10%) with respect to any line item or by an aggregate amount of more than five percent (5%) of the total Approved Budget, with the exception of any Emergency Expenditures or Non-Controllable Expenditures, which shall not be subject to the foregoing limitations. With respect to Emergency Expenditures or Non-Controllable Expenditures, the Managing Member shall use commercially reasonable efforts to contact Xxxxxx prior to making any such Emergency Expenditure or Non-Controllable Expenditures, and in all events, shall notify Xxxxxx within five (5) Business Days after such an Emergency Expenditure or Non-Controllable Expenditures has been made.

(b) The Managing Member shall submit a Proposed Annual Budget to Xxxxxx on or before November 1^st for the immediately following Fiscal Year. Xxxxxx shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of an initial Proposed Annual Budget, either (a) approve the Proposed Annual Budget, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; or (b) advise the Managing Member in writing of Xxxxxx’x specific objections thereto. If Xxxxxx has objections to the Proposed Annual Budget, the Managing Member shall then use its good faith efforts to revise the Proposed Annual Budget to address such objections and resubmit the same to Xxxxxx in writing within seven (7) Business Days after its receipt of the objections thereto, whereupon the process set forth above shall be utilized again (except that Xxxxxx shall respond to any revised Proposed Annual Budget in writing within five (5) Business Days and

ACTIVE 203377524v.3

shall only be permitted to object with respect to items specifically objected to in such prior iteration(s) of the Proposed Annual Budget), until a Proposed Annual Budget has been approved. In addition, at any time after an Approved Budget has been approved by Xxxxxx, the Managing Member shall have the right to submit a revised or amended Proposed Annual Budget in writing to Xxxxxx for approval (subject to the same reasonableness standard above if applicable), and if Xxxxxx has objections to such revisions or amendments, Xxxxxx shall advise the Managing Member in writing of Xxxxxx’x specific objections within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. Xxxxxx’x failure to respond to any submission within the aforementioned time periods shall be deemed approval of the submitted Proposed Annual Budget or revisions or amendment to an Approved Budget. In the event of a dispute over the adoption of a Proposed Annual Budget or any portion thereof, any portion of the Proposed Annual Budget not disputed shall be deemed approved and shall be operative at such time. With respect to any portion of the Proposed Annual Budget subject to dispute, the Managing Member shall continue to operate the Company and its Subsidiaries in accordance with the corresponding portion of the Approved Budget for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, except that any capital and non-recurring items shall be deleted and any applicable portion of such Approved Budget shall be adjusted to reflect the actual amount of expenses not within the control of the Company and/or any Subsidiary (including, but not limited to, real property taxes and assessments, insurance, utilities) and with aggregate increases in operating expenses based on the percentage increase in the CPI Index over the prior year, until a Proposed Annual Budget (or such portion) for such current Fiscal Year is approved in accordance with this Section 6.10 (and until a Proposed Annual Budget (or such portion) for such current Fiscal Year is approved in accordance with this Section 6.10, the applicable portions of the Approved Budget for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year (as adjusted hereunder) shall be deemed to be an Approved Budget for the then current Fiscal Year).

(c) The Managing Member shall be deemed not to have made any guarantee or warranty of the fiscal estimations set forth in the Proposed Annual Budget or Approved Annual Budget. Each Member acknowledges that the Proposed Annual Budget is intended to set forth objectives and goals based on the Managing Member’s reasonable judgment of the facts and circumstances known by the Managing Member at the time of preparation.

(d) The Approved Budget for the Fiscal Year ending on December 31, 2015 is attached hereto as Exhibit C.

6.11 Capital Plans. The parties acknowledge and agree that in addition to expenditures made and actions taken pursuant to the Approved Budget, the Managing Member shall also be authorized to make expenditures and take actions set forth in the Capital Plan, and to the extent that the actual cost of any line-item exceeds the budgeted amount set forth in the Capital Plan, the Managing Member shall be authorized to take actions and cause expenditures to be made in an amount necessary to complete any line item set forth in the Capital Plan, in each instance without the approval of Xxxxxx and without same constituting an amendment to the Capital Plan. The Capital Plan shall be updated every year subject to the approval of Xxxxxx not to be unreasonably withheld, except to the extent Xxxxxx’x consent is not required pursuant to the penultimate sentence of this Section 6.11, with any amounts set forth in the approved Capital Plan that are not incurred in a given year, deemed approved for any following year thereafter. If

ACTIVE 203377524v.3

Xxxxxx objects to such revisions or amendments, Xxxxxx shall advise the Managing Member in writing of Xxxxxx’x specific objections within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof. Xxxxxx’x failure to respond to any submission within the aforementioned time periods shall be deemed approval of the revisions or amendment to the Capital Plans. If a Capital Plan is not approved (to the extent Xxxxxx’x approval is required) the then existing Capital Plan shall remain in effect for the following year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Xxxxxx shall not have an approval right with respect to any revisions or amendments to the initial Capital Plan if such revisions or amendments to the initial Capital Plan are either (a) prepared in accordance with the same methodology used to develop the initial Capital Plan annexed to this Agreement or (b) otherwise consistent with the current methodology used by Xxxxx Properties, Inc. to prepare capital plans for the other assets in its portfolio (any such revision or amendment to the initial Capital Plan, a “Deemed Approval Amendment”). In the event of any Deemed Approval Amendment, the Managing Member may apply up to fifty percent (50%) of the available Net Cash Flow from Operations for the applicable Distribution Period towards the funding of capital expenditures set forth in a Deemed Approval Amendment (the “Distribution Reduction Limit”), and to the extent any Deemed Approval Amendment requires funds for the applicable Distribution Period in excess of the Distribution Reduction Limit, then any capital contributions required by the Xxxxxx Members to fund such Deemed Approval Amendment in excess of the Distribution Reduction Limit shall be funded by Xxxxx on behalf of Xxxxxx Members as a Member Loan.

ACTIVE 203377524v.3

8.3 Right of First Refusal on Xxxxxx Interests. Except as set forth in Section 8.2(b), 8.5 and 8.7, Xxxxxx may not Transfer any portion of its Interest permitted to be Transferred in accordance with Section 8.1 unless Xxxxxx has first complied with the right of first refusal process set forth in this Section 8.3. For purposes of this Section 8.3, if Xxxxxx desires to make a Transfer, and following the consummation of such proposed Transfer, Xxxxxx’x Percentage Share shall be less than 25% (a “Xxxxxx Drag Along Transfer”), then the ROFR Interest (as hereinafter defined) shall include, at Xxxxx’x option as provided below, for all purposes of this Section 8.3, any and all Interest in the Company held by Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx.

(a) If Xxxxxx proposes to Transfer a portion of the Xxxxxx Interest in the Company that is permitted to be Transferred in accordance with Section 8.1 (a “Proposed Xxxxxx Transfer”) to a bona-fide third-party purchaser (a “Proposed Xxxxxx Transferee”), then Xxxxxx shall give written notice to Xxxxx, which notice shall include (i) the name and address of the Proposed Xxxxxx Transferee, together with a certification by Xxxxxx as to whether such Proposed Xxxxxx Transferee is a Qualified Xxxxxx Transferee (and if so, such certification shall include reasonable evidence supporting such designation), (ii) a description of the Interest that is proposed to be transferred to the Proposed Transferee (the “ROFR Interest”), (iii) any information with respect to the Proposed Xxxxxx Transferee’s capital source(s), experience and financial condition available to Xxxxxx (the delivery of which, by Xxxxxx to Xxxxx, Xxxxxx agrees will not be restricted by the terms of any confidentiality agreement between Xxxxxx and the Proposed Xxxxxx Transferee) and (iv) a true, correct and complete copy of the Binding LOI (which shall expressly provide that it is subject to the right of first refusal process set forth in this Section 8.3), and Xxxxxx shall offer to sell the ROFR Interest to Xxxxx upon such terms and conditions and in accordance with the provisions hereof (the “First Refusal Offer”).

(b) Xxxxx shall have thirty (30) days (the “ROFR Election Period”) following the date of receipt of the First Refusal Offer within which to notify Xxxxxx in writing of Xxxxx’x election to purchase the ROFR Interest (the “ROFR Election”) and if the Proposed Xxxxxx Transfer constitutes a Xxxxxx Drag Along Transfer, then in such ROFR Election, Xxxxx may, but shall not be obligated to elect to acquire the Interests of Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx (the “Drag Along Election”). If the Drag Along Election is exercised, then the ROFR Offered Price shall be adjusted accordingly to reflect the purchase of the Interests of Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx. If Xxxxx does not make the ROFR Election prior to the expiration of the ROFR Election Period and the Proposed Xxxxxx Transferee is confirmed in writing by Xxxxx as a Xxxxxx Qualified Transferee, then Xxxxxx shall be permitted to consummate the Transfer of the ROFR Interest to the Proposed Xxxxxx Transferee identified in the First Refusal Offer strictly in accordance with the terms of the Binding LOI. If Xxxxx does not make the ROFR Election prior to the expiration of the ROFR Election Period and the Proposed Xxxxxx Transferee is not a Xxxxxx Qualified Transferee, then Xxxxxx shall be permitted to consummate the Transfer of the ROFR Interest to the Proposed Xxxxxx Transferee identified in the First Refusal Offer only if approved in writing by Xxxxx in its sole and absolute discretion, and strictly in accordance with the terms of the Binding LOI.

(iii) If each Party submits a Proposed FMV within the period described in subsection (ii) above, the Arbitrator shall select as the Arbitrated Fair Market Value whichever of the Proposed FMVs submitted by the Call Members the Arbitrator believes is the more accurate determination of the Fair Market Value of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in rendering his or her decision, the Arbitrator shall not add to, subtract from or

ACTIVE 203377524v.3

WHEREAS, the Partnership directly or indirectly owns certain assets that previously were owned by one or more Protected Partners and/or entities in which they owned an interest;

WHEREAS, the Protected Partners own limited partnership interests in the Partnership (“Units”) that were acquired by them as of the date hereof in exchange for interests, directly or indirectly, in assets now owned by the Partnership, including the Protected Properties (as hereinafter defined);

WHEREAS, if one or more of the Protected Properties (or interests therein) were to be sold or otherwise disposed of in a taxable transaction, the Protected Partners would be allocated gain for federal income tax purposes;

WHEREAS, the REIT, directly or indirectly controls the Partnership’s general partner;

WHEREAS, the parties desire to enter into this Agreement regarding certain tax matters related to Protected Properties and the tax positions of the Protected Partners, including their agreement regarding amounts that may be payable by the Partnership to the Protected Partners as a result of certain actions being taken by the Partnership regarding the disposition, directly or indirectly, of interests in the Protected Properties and certain debt obligations of the Partnership and its subsidiaries.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

“Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

“Partner Guarantor” means a Protected Partner who has guaranteed any portion of a Guaranteed Debt.

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

Section 743 of the Code, but excluding such Protected Partner’s corresponding share of “book gain,” if any, accruing after the Closing Date). The initial maximum amount of Protected Gain with respect to each Protected Partner shall be determined as if the Partnership sold a Protected Property in a fully taxable transaction on the Closing Date, for consideration equal to the Section 704(c) Value of such Protected Property on the Closing Date, and is set forth on Schedule 2.1(b) hereto. Gain that would be allocated to a Protected Partner upon a sale of a Protected Property that is “book gain” attributable either (i) to appreciation in the value of the Protected Properties following the Closing Date or (ii) to gain resulting from reductions in the “book value” of the Protected Property following the Closing Date would not be considered Protected Gain. (As used in this definition, “book gain” is any gain arising or accruing after the Closing Date that would not be required under Section 704(c) of the Code and the applicable regulations (including the regulations referenced upon under Section 704(b) of the Code in connection with revaluations of the assets of the Partners) to be specially allocated to the Protected Partners as a result of their indirect ownership of an interest in the Protected Property immediately prior to its (direct or indirect) acquisition by the Partnership.)

“Protected Partner” means those persons set forth on Schedule 2.1(a) hereto as “Protected Partners” and their permitted successors and assignees who acquire Units from a Protected Partner in a transaction in which gain or loss is not recognized in full and in which such transferee’s adjusted basis, as determined for federal income tax purposes, is determined in whole or in part by reference to the adjusted basis of a Protected Partner in such Units.

“Protected Property” means (i) each of the properties identified as a Protected Property on Schedule 2.1(b) hereto; (ii) a direct or indirect interest owned by the Partnership in any Subsidiary that owns an interest in a Protected Property, if the disposition of such interest would result in the recognition of Protected Gain with respect to a Protected Partner; and (iii) any other property that the Partnership directly or indirectly acquires that is in whole or in part a “substituted basis property” as defined in Section 7701(a)(42) of the Code with respect to a Protected Property or interest therein. For the avoidance of doubt, if any Protected Property is transferred to another entity in a transaction in which gain or loss is not recognized in full, and if the acquiring entity’s disposition of such Protected Property would cause the Protected Partners to recognize gain or loss as a result thereof, such Protected Property (including any interest in such entity acquired directly or indirectly by the Partnership in connection therewith) shall still be subject to this Agreement.

“Qualified Guarantee” has the meaning set forth in Section 3.2.

“Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness” has the meaning set forth in Section 3.2.

“REIT” means Xxxxx Properties, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

“Section 704(c) Value” means the fair market value of each Protected Property as of the Closing Date, as agreed to by the Partnership [and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx] on behalf of the Protected Partners and as set forth next to each Protected Property on Schedule 2.1(b) hereto, as applicable. The Partnership shall initially carry each Protected Property on its books as of the Closing Date

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

at a value equal to the Section 704(c) Value of such Protected Property determined as set forth above.

“Subsidiary” means any entity in which the Partnership owns a direct or indirect interest.

“Successor Partnership” has the meaning set forth in Section 2.2.

“Tax Protection Period” means the period commencing on the Closing Date (or, if later, August [__], 2017) and ending at 12:01 AM on August [__], 2024.

“Tax Claim” has the meaning set forth in Section 7.1

“Tax Proceeding” has the meaning set forth in Section 7.1.

“Units” means [___] units of limited partnership interest of the Partnership, as described in the Partnership Agreement.


•	DISPOSITIONS OF PROTECTED PROPERTIES

Disposition of Protected Properties. The REIT and the Partnership agree for the benefit of each Protected Partner, for the term of the Tax Protection Period, that in the event that the Partnership, directly or indirectly sells, exchanges, transfers, or otherwise disposes of a Protected Property or any interest therein (without regard to whether such disposition is voluntary or involuntary) in a transaction that would cause a Protected Partner to recognize any Protected Gain, the provisions of Article 4 shall apply and the Partnership shall make the payments to the Protected Partners provided for in Article 4.

Without limiting the foregoing, the term “sale, exchange, transfer or disposition” by the Partnership shall be deemed to include, and the rights of the Protected Partners with respect thereto under Article 4 shall extend to:

any direct or indirect disposition by a Subsidiary of any Protected Property or any interest therein;

any direct or indirect disposition by the Partnership of any Protected Property (or any direct or indirect interest therein) that is subject to Section 704(c)(1)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (determined taking into account the application of the “reverse 704(c) rules” pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(4) and -(b)(4)(i) as a result of revaluations of assets of the Partnership);

any distribution by the Partnership to a Protected Partner that is subject to Section 737 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder; and

any merger or consolidation of the Partnership or a Subsidiary with or into another entity unless all of the conditions set forth in Section 2.3 below are met.

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

Without limiting the foregoing, a disposition shall include any transfer, voluntary or involuntary, by the Partnership or a Subsidiary in a foreclosure proceeding, pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or in a bankruptcy proceeding.

Exceptions Where No Gain Recognized. Notwithstanding the restriction set forth in Section 2.1, the Partnership or a Subsidiary may dispose of any Protected Property (or any interest therein), and Article 4 shall not apply with respect thereto, if and to the extent that such disposition qualifies as a like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Code, or an involuntary conversion under Section 1033 of the Code, or other transaction (including, but not limited to, a contribution of property to any entity that qualifies for the non-recognition of gain under Section 721 or Section 351 of the Code, or a merger or consolidation of the Partnership with or into another entity that qualifies as a “partnership” for federal income tax purposes (a “Successor Partnership”)) that, as to each of the foregoing, does not result (in the year of such disposition) in the recognition of any taxable income or gain to any Protected Partner with respect to any of the Units; provided, however, that:

in the case of a Section 1031 like-kind exchange, if such exchange is with a “related party” within the meaning of Section 1031(f)(3) of the Code, any direct or indirect disposition by such related party of the Protected Property or any other transaction prior to the expiration of the two (2) year period following such exchange that would cause Section 1031(f)(1) to apply with respect to such Protected Property (including by reason of the application of Section 1031(f)(4)) shall be considered subject to Section 2.1 and Article 4; and

in the event that at the time of the exchange or other disposition the Protected Property is secured, directly or indirectly, by indebtedness that is guaranteed by a Protected Partner (or for which a Protected Partner otherwise has personal liability) and that is not then in default and the transferee is not a Subsidiary of the Partnership that both is more than 50% owned, directly or indirectly by the Partnership and is and will continue to be under the legal control of the Partnership (which shall include a partnership or limited liability company in which the Partnership or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership is the sole managing general partner or sole managing member, as applicable), (a) either (I) such indebtedness shall be repaid in full or (II) the Partnership shall obtain from the lenders with respect to such indebtedness a full and complete release of liability for each of the Protected Partners that has guaranteed, or otherwise has liability for, such indebtedness, and (b) if such indebtedness is a Guaranteed Debt and the Tax Protection Period shall not have expired, the Partnership shall comply with its covenants set forth in Article 3 below with respect to such Guaranteed Debt and the Partner Guarantors that are considered to have liability for such Guaranteed Debt (determined under Section 3.4 treating such events as a repayment of the Guaranteed Debt).

Merger Transactions. Any merger or consolidation of the Partnership or any Subsidiary, whether or not the Partnership or Subsidiary is the surviving entity in such merger or consolidation, that results in a Protected Partner recognizing part or all of the Protected Gain shall be deemed to be a disposition of the Protected Properties for purposes of Section 2.1, and Article 4 shall fully apply, except as expressly provided in this Section 2.3.

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Partnership (or any Subsidiary) and a Successor Partnership that does not result in Protected Partners being required to recognize all of the Protected Gain, the Successor Partnership must have agreed in writing for the benefit of the Protected Partners that all of the restrictions contained in this Agreement shall continue to apply, including but not limited to, those with respect to each Protected Property, in order for such merger or consolidation not to be reconsidered to have resulted in the recognition by the Protected Partners of all of their Protected Gain as a result thereof.

This Section 2.3, Section 2.1 and Article 4 shall not apply to a voluntary, actual disposition by a Protected Partner of Units in connection with a merger or consolidation to which the Partnership or the REIT is a party and in connection with which all of the following requirements are satisfied:

the Protected Partner is offered either:

cash or property treated as “money” pursuant to Section 731 of the Code (“Cash Consideration”) or

partnership interests in a partnership that would be treated as the continuing partnership under the principles of Section 708 of the Code and the receipt of such partnership interests would not result in the recognition of gain for federal income tax purposes and which partnership interests have a fair value, per Unit, equal to the greater of (i) the value that the Protected Partner would have received on the date of such merger or consolidation had such Protected Partner chosen to exercise its redemption rights under Section 8.6 of the Partnership Agreement immediately prior to such date or (ii) the amount per share (adjusted to take into account all adjustments that would result in an adjustment to the “Conversion Factor” under the Partnership Agreement) to be paid to the shareholders of the REIT in connection with such merger or consolidation (“Partnership Interest Consideration”);

the Protected Partner has the ability to elect to receive solely Partnership Interest Consideration in exchange for his Units and the continuing partnership has agreed in writing to assume the obligations of the Partnership under this Agreement;

no Protected Gain is recognized by the Partnership as a result of any partner of the Partnership receiving Cash Consideration;

any Successor Partnership in such merger or consolidation shall have complied with the preceding paragraph of this Section 2.3; and

the Protected Partner elects to receive Cash Consideration.

In the event of a voluntary, actual disposition by a Protected Partner of Units in connection with a merger, consolidation or other transaction involving the Partnership that does not comply with the conditions in the prior paragraph, then Section 2.1 and Article 4 shall be considered to apply to such disposition.

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

In addition, if (1) there is a merger, consolidation or other transaction involving the REIT that results in the shares of the REIT (or any successor to the REIT) not being considered to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and (2) there is an actual disposition by a Protected Partner of Units in connection with or immediately prior to such a merger, consolidation or other transaction (including through exercise of the “Redemption Right” provided for in the Partnership Agreement), then Section 2.1 and Article 4 shall be considered to apply to such disposition unless, immediately following such merger, consolidation or other transaction involving the REIT, the Units (or any partnership interests received in exchange therefor) held by the Protected Partner would be considered to have a fair value, per Unit (determined including rights to liquidity comparable to those provided under Section 8.6 of the Partnership Agreement), equal to the amount per share (adjusted to take into account all adjustments that would result in an adjustment to the “Conversion Factor” under the Partnership Agreement) to be paid to the shareholders of the REIT in connection with such merger or consolidation.


•	ALLOCATION OF LIABILITIES; GUARANTEE OPPORTUNITY AND DEFICIT RESTORATION OBLIGATIONS

Minimum Liability Allocation. During the Tax Protection Period, the Partnership will offer to each Protected Partner, at the Protected Partner’s option, the opportunity either (i) to enter into Qualified Guarantees of Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness or (ii) to enter into a Deficit Restoration Obligation, in such amount or amounts so as to cause the amount of partnership liabilities allocated to such Protected Partner for purposes of Section 752 of the Code to be not less than such Protected Partner’s Minimum Liability Amount and to cause the amount of partnership liabilities with respect to which such Protected Partner will be considered to be “at risk” for purposes of Section 465 of the Code to be not less than such Protected Partner’s Minimum Liability Amount, as provided in this Article 3. In order to minimize the need for Protected Partners to enter into Qualified Guarantees or Deficit Restoration Obligations, to the extent and for so long as is permissible, the Partnership will use the optional method under Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3) to allocate Nonrecourse Liabilities considered secured by a Protected Property to the Protected Partners to the extent that the “built-in gain” with respect to those properties exceeds the amount of the Nonrecourse Liabilities considered secured by such Protected Property allocated to the Protected Partners under Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(2).

Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness and Qualified Guarantee; Treatment of Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness as Guaranteed Debt. In order for an offer by the Partnership of an opportunity to guarantee indebtedness to satisfy the requirements of this Article 3, (1) the indebtedness to be guaranteed must satisfy all of the conditions set forth in this Section 3.2 (indebtedness satisfying all such conditions is referred to as “Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness”); (2) the guarantee by the Partner Guarantors must be pursuant to a guarantee agreement in form and substance agreeable to the Partnership, the REIT and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx (the “Guarantee Agreement”) that satisfies the conditions set forth in Sections 3.2(i) and (iii) (a “Qualified Guarantee”); (3) the amount of debt required to be guaranteed by the Partner Guarantor must not exceed the portion of the Guaranteed Amount for which a replacement guarantee is being offered; and (4) the debt

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

to be guaranteed must be considered indebtedness of the Partnership for purposes of determining the adjusted tax basis of the interests of partners in the Partnership in their partnership interests. If, and to the extent that, a Partner Guarantor elects to guarantee Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness pursuant to an offer made in accordance with this Article 3, such indebtedness thereafter shall be considered a Guaranteed Debt and shall be subject to all of this Article 3. The conditions that must be satisfied at all times with respect to any additional or replacement Guaranteed Debt offered pursuant to this Article 3 hereof and the guarantees with respect thereto are as follows:

the maximum aggregate liability of each Partner Guarantor for all Guaranteed Debt shall be limited to the amount actually guaranteed by such Partner Guarantor;

the fair market value of the collateral against which the lender has recourse pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Guaranteed Debt, determined as of the time the guarantee is entered into by the Partner Guarantor (an independent appraisal relied upon by the lender in making the loan shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value when the guarantee is being entered into in connection with the closing of such loan), shall not be less than 150% of the sum of (x) the aggregate of the Guaranteed Debt, plus (y) the dollar amount of any other indebtedness that is senior to or pari passu with the Guaranteed Debt and as to which the lender thereunder has recourse against property that is collateral of the Guaranteed Debt;

(A) the executed guarantee must be delivered to the lender; and (B) the execution of the guarantee by the Partner Guarantors must be acknowledged by the lender; and (C) the guarantee otherwise must be enforceable under the laws of the state governing the loan and in which the property securing the loan is located or in which the lender has a significant place of business (with any bona fide branch or office of the lender through which the loan is made, negotiated, or administered being deemed a “significant place of business” for the purposes hereof);

as to each Partner Guarantor that is executing a guarantee pursuant to this Agreement, there must be no other Person that would be considered to “bear the economic risk of loss,” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.752-2, or would be considered to be “at risk” for purposes of Section 465(b) with respect to that portion of such debt for which such Partner Guarantor is being made liable for purposes of satisfying the Partnership’s obligations to such Partner Guarantor under this Article 3; and

the obligor with respect to the Guaranteed Debt is the Partnership or an entity (A) which is and will continue to be under the legal control of the Partnership (which shall include a partnership or limited liability company in which the Partnership or a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership is the sole managing general partner or sole managing member, as applicable), and (B) in which the equity interest of the Partnership in both capital and profits is not less than 50%.

Covenant With Respect to Guaranteed Debt Collateral. The Partnership covenants with the Partner Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Debt that (A) it will comply with the

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

requirements set forth in Section 2.2(b) upon any disposition of any collateral for a Guaranteed Debt, whether during or following the Tax Protection Period, and (B) it will not at any time, whether during or following the Tax Protection Period, pledge the collateral with respect to a Guaranteed Debt to secure any other indebtedness (unless such other indebtedness is, by its terms, subordinate in all respects to the Guaranteed Debt for which such collateral is security) or otherwise voluntarily dispose of or reduce the amount of such collateral unless either (i) after giving effect thereto the conditions in Section 3.2 would continue to be satisfied with respect to the Guaranteed Debt and the Guaranteed Debt otherwise would continue to be Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness, or (ii) the Partnership (A) obtains from the lender with respect to the original Guaranteed Debt a full and complete release of any Partner Guarantor unless the Partner Guarantor expressly requests that it not be released, and (B) if the Tax Protection Period has not expired, offers to each Partner Guarantor with respect to such original Guaranteed Debt, not less than 30 days prior to such pledge or disposition, the opportunity, at the option of the Protected Partner, either (1) to enter into a Qualified Guarantee of other Partnership indebtedness that constitutes Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness (with such replacement indebtedness thereafter being considered a Guaranteed Debt and subject to this Article 3) in an amount equal to the amount of such original Guaranteed Debt that was guaranteed by such Partner Guarantor or (2) to enter into a DRO in the amount of the original Guaranteed Debt that was guaranteed by such Partner Guarantor.

Repayment or Refinancing of Guaranteed Debt. The Partnership shall not, at any time during the Tax Protection Period applicable to a Partner Guarantor, repay or refinance all or any portion of any Guaranteed Debt unless (i) after taking into account such repayment, each Partner Guarantor would be entitled to include in its basis for its Units an amount of Guaranteed Debt equal to its Minimum Liability Amount, or (ii) alternatively, the Partnership, not less than 30 days prior to such repayment or refinancing, offers to the applicable Partner Guarantors the opportunity, at the option of the Protected Partner, either (A) to enter into a Qualified Guarantee with respect to other Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness or (B) to enter into a DRO, in either case in an amount sufficient so that, taking into account such guarantees of such other Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness or DRO, as applicable, each Partner Guarantor who guarantees such other Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness or enters into a DRO in the amount specified by the Partnership would be entitled to include in its adjusted tax basis for its Units debt equal to the Minimum Liability Amount for such Partner Guarantor.

Limitation on Additional Guarantees With Respect to Debt Secured by Collateral for Guaranteed Debt. The Partnership shall not offer the opportunity or make available to any person or entity other than a Protected Partner a guarantee of any Guaranteed Debt or other debt that is secured, directly or indirectly, by any collateral for Guaranteed Debt unless (i) any such other debt by its terms is subordinate in all respects to the Guaranteed Debt, and (ii) such other guarantees do not have the effect of reducing the amount of the Guaranteed Debt that is includible by any Partner Guarantor in its adjusted tax basis for its Units pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.752-2.

Process. Whenever the Partnership is required under this Article 3 to offer to one or more of the Partner Guarantors an opportunity, at the option of the Partner Guarantor, either to guarantee Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness or enter into a DRO, the Partnership shall be considered to

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

have satisfied its obligation under this Article 3 if the other conditions in this Article 3 are satisfied and, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date that such guarantee would be required to be executed in order to satisfy this Article 3, the Partnership sends by first class mail, return receipt requested, to the last known address of each such Partner Guarantor (as reflected in the records of the Partnership) (i) the Guarantee Agreement or a consent to DRO form, as applicable, to be executed and (ii) a brief letter setting forth (v) the relevant circumstances (including, as applicable, that the offer is being made pursuant to this Article 3, the circumstances giving rise to the offer, a brief summary of the terms of the Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness to be guaranteed (or, in the case of a DRO, the terms of the Partnership recourse debt), (w) a brief description of the collateral for the Qualified Guarantee Indebtedness, (x) a statement of the amount to be guaranteed (or the amount of the DRO), (y) the address to which the executed Guarantee Agreement (or consent to DRO form) must be sent and the date by which it must be received, and (z) a statement to the effect that, if the Protected Partner fails to execute and return such Guarantee Agreement (or consent to DRO form) within the time period specified, the Partner Guarantor thereafter would lose its rights under this Article 3 with respect to the amount of debt that the Partnership is required to offer to be guaranteed (or that would be subject to the DRO), and depending upon the Partner Guarantor’s circumstances and other circumstances related to the Partnership, the Partner Guarantor could be required to recognize taxable gain as a result thereof, either currently or prior to the expiration of the Tax Protection Period, that otherwise would have been deferred. If a notice is properly sent in accordance with this Section 3.6, the Partnership shall have no responsibility as a result of the failure of a Partner Guarantor either to receive such notice or to respond thereto within the specified time period.

Presumption as to Guarantee Agreement. A Guarantee Agreement that is (A) properly executed by the Partner Guarantor and the lender and (B) delivered to the lender shall be conclusively presumed to have caused the Guaranteed Debt to be considered allocable to the Guarantor Partner who enters into such Guarantee Agreement pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.752-2 and Section 465 of the Code so long as all of the following conditions are met with respect such Guaranteed Debt:

there are no other guarantees in effect with respect to such Guaranteed Debt (other than the guarantees contemporaneously being entered into by the Partner Guarantors pursuant to this Article 3 or that are otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 3.2);

the collateral securing such Guaranteed Debt is not, and shall not thereafter become, collateral for any other indebtedness that is senior to or pari passu with such Guaranteed Debt;

the lender with respect to such Guaranteed Debt is not the Partnership, any Subsidiary or other entity in which the Partnership owns a direct or indirect interest, the REIT, any other partner in the Partnership, or any person related to any partner in the Partnership as determined for purposes of Treasury Regulation § 1.752-2 or any person that would be considered a “related party” as determined for purposes of Section 465 of the Code; and

none of the REIT, nor any other partner in the Partnership, nor any person related to any partner in the Partnership as determined for purposes of Treasury Regulation § 1.752-2 shall have provided, or shall thereafter provide, collateral for, or otherwise shall have entered into, or

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

shall thereafter enter into, a relationship that would cause such person or entity to be considered to bear the risk of loss with respect to such Guaranteed Debt, as determined for purposes of Treasury Regulation § 1.752-2 or that would cause such entity to be considered “at risk” with respect to such Guaranteed Debt, as determined for purposes of Section 465 of the Code.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, due to a change in tax law or regulation (including administrative interpretations thereof) after the date hereof, either the Partnership determines or a Protected Partner is advised by counsel, that there is a material risk that such Protected Partner may no longer continue to be allocated such Protected Partner’s Guaranteed Amount of a Guaranteed Debt, such Protected Partner may request a modification of such Guarantee Agreement and the Partnership will use its commercially reasonable efforts to work with the lender with respect to such Guaranteed Debt to have the Guarantee Agreement amended in a manner that will permit such Protected Partner to be allocated such Protected Partner’s Guaranteed Amount with respect to the Guaranteed Debt, or such Protected Partner, at its option shall be offered the opportunity to enter into a DRO, in an amount equal to such Guaranteed Amount so that the amount of Partnership liabilities allocated to such Protected Partner shall not decrease as a result of the change in law. For the avoidance of doubt, each Protected Partner hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Partnership shall not be treated as violating this Article 3 to the extent that, after such a change of tax law or regulation (including administrative interpretations thereof), the allocation of Partnership indebtedness for tax purposes to the Protected Partner may not be achieved due to the unwillingness of such Protected Partner either to provide a guarantee or similar instrument that complies with the new rules or interpretations (where both such guarantee or similar instrument and the indebtedness being guaranteed is otherwise consistent to the maximum extent permitted by such new rules or interpretations with the provisions of this Article 3) or to enter into a DRO pursuant to Section 3.8; provided, however, that the Partnership’s obligations as set forth in the last sentence of Section 3.1 shall continue to apply. Any cost and expenses incurred as a result of such a change in tax law or regulation (including administrative interpretations thereof) shall be borne equally by the Partnership on the one hand and the relevant Protected Partner on the other hand.

Deficit Restoration Obligation. In the event a Protected Partner has elected to enter into a DRO, the Partnership will maintain an amount of indebtedness of the Partnership that would be considered “recourse” indebtedness (determined for purposes of Section 752 of the Code and taking into account all of the facts and circumstances related to the indebtedness, the Partnership and the General Partner) equal to or greater than the sum of the total amount of the DRO of all Protected Partners (plus, the total amount of the DRO, if any, of other partners in the Partnership). Except as required by a change in law or regulation (or administrative interpretations thereof), the deficit restoration obligation evidenced thereby shall be presumed to cause the Protected Partner to be allocated an amount of liabilities equal to the amount of the DRO of such Protected Partner for purposes of Sections 465 and 752 of the Code, provided that (1) the Partnership maintains an amount of debt that is considered “recourse” indebtedness (determined for purposes of Section 752 of the Code and taking into account all of the facts and circumstances related to the indebtedness, the Partnership and the General Partner) equal to the aggregate amounts of the DRO of all partners of the Partnership and (2) all other terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement with respect to such deficit restoration obligation are

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

met. For the avoidance of doubt, the purpose of this Section 3.8 is not to require the Partnership to incur or increase the amount of “recourse” indebtedness, if any, to which the Protected Properties are subject, provided, however, that the Partnership maintains at the same time sufficient other “recourse” indebtedness to cover the aggregate amounts of the DRO of all partners of the Partnership.

Additional Guarantee and DRO Opportunities. Without limiting any of the other obligations of the Partnership under this Agreement, from and after the expiration of the Tax Protection Period, the Partnership shall, upon a request from a Protected Partner, use commercially reasonable efforts to permit such Protected Partner to enter into an agreement with the Partnership to bear the economic risk of loss as to a portion of the Partnership’s recourse indebtedness by undertaking an obligation to restore a portion of its negative capital account balance upon liquidation of such Protected Partner’s interest in the Partnership and/or to bear financial liability under a Guarantee Agreement for indebtedness that would be considered Qualifying Guarantee Indebtedness under Section 3.2 hereof, if such Protected Partner shall provide information from its professional tax advisor satisfactory to the Partnership showing that, in the absence of such agreement, such Protected Partner likely would not be allocated from the Partnership sufficient indebtedness under Section 752 of the Code and the at-risk provisions under Section 465 of the Code to avoid the recognition of gain (other than gain required to be recognized by reason of actual cash distributions from the Partnership). The Partnership and its professional tax advisors shall cooperate in good faith with such Protected Partner and its professional tax advisors to provide such information regarding the allocation of the Partnership liabilities and the nature of such liabilities as is reasonably necessary in order to determine the Protected Partner’s adjusted tax basis in its Units and at-risk amount. If the Partnership permits a Protected Partner to enter into an agreement under this Section 3.9, the Partnership shall be under no further obligation with respect thereto, and the Partnership shall not be required to indemnify such Protected Partner for any damage incurred, in connection with or as a result of such agreement or the indebtedness, including without limitation a refinancing or prepayment thereof or taking any of the other actions required by Article 3 hereof with respect to Qualified Indebtedness. This Section 3.9 shall not obligate the Partnership to incur additional indebtedness.


•	REMEDIES

Remedies. In the event that the Partnership engages in a transaction described in Section 2.1, 2.3 or 2.4 or the Partnership breaches its obligations set forth in Article 2 or Article 3 with respect to a Protected Partner, the Protected Partner’s sole right shall be to receive from the Partnership, and the Partnership shall pay, without duplication, to such Protected Partner as damages, an amount equal to:

in the case of a violation of Article 0, xxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx, xxxxx and local income taxes (including any applicable federal unearned income Medicare contribution under Section 1411 of the Code) incurred by the Protected Partner as a result of the income or gain allocated to, or otherwise recognized by, such Protected Partner by reason of such breach;

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

in the case of a transaction described in Section 2.1, 2.3 or 2.4 or a violation of Article 0, xxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxx, and local income taxes (including any applicable federal unearned income Medicare contribution under Section 1411 of the Code) incurred with respect the Protected Gain incurred with respect to the Protected Property that is allocable to such Protected Partner under the Partnership Agreement;

plus in the case of either (a) or (b), an additional amount equal to the aggregate federal, state, and local income taxes (including any applicable federal unearned income Medicare contribution under Section 1411 of the Code) payable by the Protected Partner as a result of the receipt of any payment required under this Section 4.1 (including any tax liability incurred as a result of such Protected Partner’s receipt of such indemnity payment).

For purposes of computing the amount of federal, state, and local income taxes required to be paid by a Protected Partner, (i) any deduction for state income taxes payable as a result thereof actually allowed in computing federal income taxes shall be taken into account, and (ii) a Protected Partner’s tax liability shall be computed using the highest federal, state and local marginal income tax rates that would be applicable to such Protected Partner’s taxable income (taking into account the character and type of such income or gain) for the year with respect to which the taxes must be paid, without regard to any deductions, losses or credits that may be available to such Protected Partner that would reduce or offset its actual taxable income or actual tax liability if such deductions, losses or credits could be utilized by the Protected Partner to offset other income, gain or taxes of the Protected Partner, either in the current year, in earlier years, or in later years.

Process for Determining Payments Required Under this Article 4. If the Partnership or a Subsidiary engages in a transaction described in Sections 2.1, 2.3 or 2.4 or breached or violated any of the covenants set forth in Article 2 or Article 3 (or a Protected Partner asserts that the Partnership or a Subsidiary engaged in a transaction described in Sections 2.1, 2.3 or 2.4 or breached or violated any of the covenants set forth in Article 2 or Article 3), the Partnership and the Protected Partner agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve any disagreements regarding any such transaction, breach or violation and the amount of payments or damages, if any, payable to such Protected Partner under Section 4.1 (and to the extent applicable, Sections 4.4 and/or 4.5). If any such disagreement cannot be resolved by the Partnership and such Protected Partner within, as applicable, sixty (60) days after the receipt of notice from the Partnership of such transaction or breach pursuant to Section 4.3 and the amount of income to be recognized by reason thereof, (ii) 60 days after the receipt of a notice from the Protected Partner that the Partnership or a Subsidiary engaged in a transaction described in Sections 2.1, 2.3 or 2.4 or breached its obligations under this Agreement, which notice shall set forth the amount of income asserted to be recognized by the Protected Partner and the payment required to be made to such Protected Partner under Section 4.1 as a result of the transaction or breach, (iii) 10 days following the date that the Partnership notifies the Protected Partner of its intention to settle, compromise and/or concede any Tax Claim or Proceeding pursuant to Section 7.2, or (iv) 10 days following any final determination of any Tax Claim or Proceeding, the Partnership and the Protected Partner shall jointly retain a nationally recognized independent “Big Four” public accounting firm (an “Accounting Firm”) to act as an arbitrator to resolve as expeditiously

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

as possible all points of any such disagreement (including, without limitation, whether a transaction described in Sections 2.1, 2.3 or 2.4 has occurred or a breach of any of the covenants set forth Article 2 or Article 3 has occurred and, if so, the amount of payment or damages to which the Protected Partner is entitled as a result thereof, determined as set forth in Section 4.1 (and to the extent applicable, Section 4.4). All determinations made by the Accounting Firm with respect to any transaction described in Sections 2.1, 2.3 or 2.4 or the resolution of any breach or violation of any of the covenants set forth in Article 2 or Article 3 and the amount of payments or damages payable to the Protected Partner under Section 4.1 (and to the extent applicable, Section 4.4) shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Partnership and the Protected Partner. The fees and expenses of any Accounting Firm incurred in connection with any such determination shall be shared equally by the Partnership and the Protected Partner, provided that if the amount determined by the Accounting Firm to be owed by the Partnership to the Protected Partner is more than five percent (5%) higher than the amount proposed by the Partnership to be owed to such Protected Partner prior to the submission of the matter to the Accounting Firm, then all of the fees and expenses of any Accounting Firm incurred in connection with any such determination shall be paid by the Partnership and if the amount determined by the Accounting Firm to be owed by the Partnership to the Protected Partner is less than 95% of the amount than the amount proposed by the Partnership to be owed to such Protected Partner prior to the submission of the matter to the Accounting Firm, then all of the fees and expenses of any Accounting Firm incurred in connection with any such determination shall be paid by the Protected Partner.

In the case of any Tax Claim or Tax Proceeding that is resolved pursuant to a final determination or that is settled, compromised and/or conceded pursuant to Section 7.2, the amount of taxes due to the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or any other taxing authority shall, to the extent that such taxes relate to matters covered in this Agreement, be presumed to be an amount payable pursuant to this Agreement, and the amount payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be increased by any interest and penalties required to be paid by the Protected Partner with respect to such taxes (other than interest and penalties resulting from a failure of the Protected Partner to timely and properly file any tax return or to timely pay any tax, unless such failure resulted solely from the Protected Partner reporting and paying its taxes in a manner consistent with the Partnership) so that the amount of the payment under Section 4.1 shall not be less than the amount required to be paid to the IRS or any other taxing authority with respect to matters covered in this Agreement.

Required Notices; Time for Payment. In the event that there has been a transaction described in Sections 2.1, 2.3 or 2.4 or a breach of Article 2 or Article 3, the Partnership shall provide to the Protected Partner notice of the transaction or event giving rise to such breach not later than at such time as the Partnership provides to the Protected Partners the Schedule K-1’s to the Partnership’s federal income tax return as required in accordance with Section 7.4 below. All payments required under this Article 4 to any Protected Partner shall be made to such Protected Partner on or before April 15 of the year following the year in which the gain recognition event giving rise to such payment took place; provided that, if the Protected Partner is required to make estimated tax payments that would include such gain, the Partnership shall make a payment to the Protected Partner on or before the due date for such estimated tax payment and such payment

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

from the partnership shall be in an amount that corresponds to the amount of the estimated tax being paid by such Protected Partner at such time. In the event of a payment required after the date required pursuant to this Section 4.3, interest shall accrue on the aggregate amount required to be paid from such date to the date of actual payment at a rate equal to the “prime rate” of interest, as published in the Wall Street Journal (or if no longer published there, as announced by Citibank) effective as of the date the payment is required to be made.

Additional Damages for Breaches of Section 2.2(b), Section 3.2 and/or Section 3.3. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing in this Article 4, in the event that the Partnership should breach any of its covenants set forth in Section 2.2(b) and Section 3.2(i), (ii) and/or (iii) and a Protected Partner is required to make a payment in respect of such indebtedness that it would not have had to make if such breach had not occurred (an “Excess Payment”), then, in addition to the damages provided for in the other Sections of this Article 4, the Partnership shall pay to such Protected Partner an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Excess Payment plus (ii) the aggregate federal, state and local income taxes, if any, computed or set forth in Section 4.1, required to be paid by such Protected Partner by reason of Section 4.4 becoming operative (for example, because the breach by the Partnership and this Section 4.4 caused all or any portion of the indebtedness in question no longer to be considered debt includible in basis by the affected Protected Partner pursuant to Treasury Regulations § 1.752-2(a)), plus (iii) an amount equal to the aggregate federal, state and local income taxes required to be paid by the Protected Partner (computed as set forth in Section 4.1) as a result of any payment required under this Section 4.4.


•	SECTION 704(C) METHOD AND ALLOCATIONS

Application of “Traditional Method.” Notwithstanding any provision of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership shall use the “traditional method” under Regulations § 1.704-3(b) for purposes of making all allocations under Section 704(c) of the Code, including, without limitation, allocations required in connection with the application of the “reverse 704(c) rules” pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(4) and -(b)(4)(i) as a result of revaluations of assets of the Partnership (with no “curative allocations” to offset the effects of the “ceiling rule,” including upon any sale of a Protected Property).


•	ALLOCATIONS OF LIABILITIES PURSUANT TO REGULATIONS UNDER SECTION 752

Allocation Methods to be Followed. Except as provided in Section 6.2, all tax returns prepared by the Partnership with respect to the Tax Protection Period (and to the extent arrangements have been entered into pursuant to Section 3.9, for so long thereafter as such arrangements are in effect) that allocate liabilities of the Partnership for purposes of Section 752 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder shall treat each Partner Guarantor as being allocated for federal income tax purposes an amount of recourse debt (in addition to any nonrecourse debt otherwise allocable to such Partner Guarantor in accordance with the Partnership Agreement and Treasury Regulations § 1.752-3) pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.752-2 equal to such Partner Guarantor’s Minimum Liability Amount, as set forth on Schedule 3.1 hereto and as may be

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

reduced pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and the Partnership and the REIT shall not, during or with respect to the Tax Protection Period, take any contrary or inconsistent position in any federal or state income tax returns (including, without limitation, information returns, such as IRS Forms K-1, provided to partners in the Partnership and returns of Subsidiaries of the Partnership) or any dealings involving the IRS (including, without limitation, any audit, administrative appeal or any judicial proceeding involving the income tax returns of the Partnership or the tax treatment of any holder of partnership interests the Partnership).

Exception to Required Allocation Method. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, the Partnership shall not be required to make allocations of Guaranteed Debt or other recourse debt of the Partnership to the Protected Partners as set forth in this Agreement if and to the extent that the Partnership determines in good faith, based upon the advice of counsel recognized as expert in such matters or a nationally recognized public accounting firm, that it is not at least “more likely than not” that such allocation would be sustained upon review in a court having jurisdiction over such matters or that there has been a judicial determination in a proceeding to which the Partnership is a party and as to which the Protected Partners have been allowed to participate as and to the extent contemplated in Article 7 to the effect that such allocations are not correct. In no event shall this Section 6.2 be construed to relieve the Partnership from any liability arising from a failure by the Partnership to comply with one or more of the provisions of Article 3 of this Agreement.

Cooperation in the Event of a Required Change. If a change in the Partnership’s allocations of Guaranteed Debt or other recourse debt of the Partnership to the Protected Partners is required by reason of circumstances described in Section 6.2, the Partnership and its professional tax advisors shall cooperate in good faith with each Protected Partner (or in the event of their death or disability, their executor, guardian or custodian, as applicable) and their professional tax advisors to develop alternative allocation arrangements and/or other mechanisms that protect the federal income tax positions of the Protected Partners in the manner contemplated by the allocations of Guaranteed Debt or other recourse debt of the Partnership to the Protected Partners as set forth in this Agreement.


•	TAX PROCEEDINGS

Notice of Tax Audits. If any claim, demand, assessment (including a notice of proposed assessment) or other assertion is made with respect to taxes or tax calculations against the Protected Partners or the Partnership that could result in liability under this Agreement (“Tax Claim”) or if the REIT or the Partnership receives any notice from any jurisdiction with respect to any current or future audit, examination, investigation or other proceeding (“Tax Proceeding”) the resolution of which could result in liability under this Agreement, then the REIT or the Partnership, as applicable shall promptly (but in no event later than 20 business days after receipt of such notice) notify the Protected Partners of such Tax Claim or Tax Proceeding. In the case of a notification of a Tax Claim or Tax Proceeding received by any Protected Partner, or any notice of any current or future audit, examination, investigation or other proceeding received by a Protected Partner that involves or could involve a matter covered in this Agreement, the

ACTIVE 203305734v.1

Protected Partner shall promptly notify the Partnership of such Tax Claim, Tax Proceeding, or other notice, but in no event later than 20 business days after receipt of such notice.

Control of Tax Proceedings. The REIT, as the sole owner of the general partner of the Partnership shall have the right to control the defense, settlement or compromise of any Tax Proceeding or Tax Claim; provided, however, that the REIT shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Tax Claim or Tax Proceeding that could result in tax liability to a Protected Partner without the prior written consent of the Protected Partner which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or denied (and shall not be denied to the extent that any taxes required to be paid by the Protected Partners as a result thereof would be required to be reimbursed by the Partnership and the REIT under Article 4 and the Partnership and the REIT agree in connection with such settlement or consent, to make such required payments); provided further that the Partnership shall keep the Protected Partners duly informed of the progress thereof to the extent that such Tax Proceeding or Tax Claim could, directly or indirectly, affect (adversely or otherwise) the Protected Partners and that the Protected Partners shall have the right to review and comment on any and all submissions made to the IRS, a court, or other governmental body with respect to such Tax Claim or Tax Proceeding and that the Partnership will consider such comments in good faith. The Protected Partners shall have the right to participate in any such Tax Proceeding or Tax Claim at their own expense.

Timing of Tax Returns; Periodic Tax Information. The Partnership shall cause to be delivered to each Protected Partner, as soon as practicable each year, the IRS Forms K-1 that the Partnership is required to deliver to such Protected Partners with respect to the prior taxable year. In addition, the Partnership agrees to provide to the Protected Partners, upon request, an estimate of the taxable income expected to be allocable for a specified taxable year from the Partnership to each Protected Partner and the entities that they control, provided that such estimates shall not be required to be provided more frequently than once each calendar quarter.


•	AMENDMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT; WAIVER OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS; APPROVAL OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, directly or indirectly (including by reason of a merger between the Partnership and another entity) except by a written instrument signed by both the REIT, as general partner of the Partnership, and each of the Protected Partners.

The REIT and the Partnership covenant with and for the benefit of the Protected Partners not to undertake any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of either entity (whether by merger, transfer, spin-off or otherwise) unless the transferee has acknowledged in writing and agreed in writing to be bound by this Agreement, provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed to permit any transaction otherwise prohibited by this Agreement.
