(a) Neither the General Partner nor any Person acting on its behalf,
pursuant hereto, shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or
otherwise to the Partnership or to any Partner for any acts or omissions
performed or omitted to be performed by them within the scope of the authority
conferred upon the General Partner by this Agreement and the Act, provided that
the General Partner's or such other Person's conduct or omission to act was

29
35
judgment not to be entitled to such indemnification. All rights of the
indemnitee hereunder shall survive the dissolution of the Partnership; provided,
however, that a claim for indemnification under this Agreement must be made by
or on behalf of the Person seeking indemnification prior to the time the
Partnership is liquidated hereunder. The indemnification rights contained in

remedies and recourse to which the person seeking indemnification shall be
entitled, whether at law or in equity. Indemnification pursuant to this

and no Partner shall be liable therefor.

agreed that it is their intent that the Partnership be operated in a manner that
will enable the General Partner to (a) satisfy the REIT Requirements and (b)
avoid the imposition of any federal income or excise tax liability. The General
Partner shall use its best efforts to cause the Partnership to avoid taking any
action that would result in the General Partner ceasing to satisfy the REIT
Requirements or would result in the imposition of any federal income or excise
tax liability on the General Partner. The determination as to whether the
Partnership has operated in the manner prescribed in this Section 7.11 shall be
made without regard to any action or inaction of the General Partner with

contrary above, but subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement,
the General Partner shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to
determine the manner in which the Partnership shall be operated.

36
including the period in which such distribution occurs (other than those
adjustments made pursuant to this Section 8.2(d) and Section 8.3 hereof).
Whenever the Liquidating Trustee reasonably determines that any reserves

made no later than the later to occur of (i) the last day of the taxable year of
the Partnership in which such liquidation occurs or (ii) ninety (90) days after
the date of such liquidation.
8.4 SALE OF PARTNERSHIP ASSETS. In the event of the liquidation of the
Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Liquidating
Trustee may, with the Consent of the Limited Partners, sell Partnership property
if the Liquidating Trustee has in good faith solicited bids from unrelated third
parties and obtained independent appraisals before making any such sale;
provided, however, all sales, leases, encumbrances or transfers of Partnership
assets shall be made by the Liquidating Trustee with the prior Consent of the
Limited Partners and solely on an "arm's-length" basis, at the best price and on
the best terms and conditions as the General Partner in good faith believes are
reasonably available at the time and under the circumstances and on a
non-recourse basis to the Limited Partners. The liquidation of the Partnership
shall not be deemed finally completed until the Partnership shall have received
cash payments in full with respect to obligations such as notes, installment
sale contracts or other similar receivables received by the Partnership in
connection with the sale of Partnership assets and all obligations of the
Partnership have been satisfied or assumed by the General Partner. The
Liquidating Trustee shall continue to act to enforce all of the rights of the
Partnership pursuant to any such obligations until such obligations are paid in
full or otherwise satisfied.
8.5 DISTRIBUTIONS IN KIND. In the event that it becomes necessary to make a
distribution of Partnership property in kind, the General Partner may, with the
Consent of the Limited Partners, transfer and convey such property to the
distributees as tenants in common, subject to any liabilities attached thereto,
so as to vest in the distributees undivided interests in the whole of such
property in proportion to their respective rights to share in the proceeds of
the sale of such property (other than as a creditor) in accordance with the
provisions of Section 8.2 hereof.
8.6 DOCUMENTATION OF LIQUIDATION. Upon the completion of the dissolution
and liquidation of the Partnership, the Partnership shall terminate and the

claims, demands, liabilities, costs, damages and causes of action of any nature
whatsoever arising out of or incidental to the Liquidating Trustee's taking of
any action authorized under or within the scope
31
37
of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Liquidating Trustee shall not be
entitled to indemnification, and shall not be held harmless, where the claim,
demand, liability, cost, damage or cause of action at issue arose out of:
(a) A matter entirely unrelated to the Liquidating Trustee's action
or conduct pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; or
(b) The proven misconduct or negligence of the Liquidating Trustee.
ARTICLE IX
TRANSFER OF PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS
9.1 GENERAL PARTNER TRANSFER. The General Partner shall not withdraw from
the Partnership and shall not sell, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise
dispose of all or any portion of its interest in the Partnership without the
Consent of the Limited Partners. Upon any Transfer of a Partnership Interest in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.1, the transferee General
Partner shall become vested with the powers and rights of the transferor General
Partner, and shall be liable for all obligations and responsible for all duties
of the General Partner, once such transferee has executed such instruments as
may be necessary to effectuate such admission and to confirm the agreement of
such transferee to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement
with respect to the Partnership Interest so acquired. It is a condition to any
Transfer otherwise permitted hereunder that the transferee assumes by operation
of law or express agreement all of the obligations of the transferor General
Partner under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Partnership
Interest, and no such Transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or
consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor General
Partner are assumed by a successor corporation or other Entity by operation of
law) shall relieve the transferor General Partner of its obligations under this
Agreement without the Consent of the Limited Partners, in their reasonable
discretion. In the event the General Partner withdraws from the Partnership, in
violation of this Agreement or otherwise, or dissolves, terminates or upon the
Bankruptcy of the General Partner, a Majority-In-Interest of the Limited
Partners may elect to continue the Partnership business by selecting a
substitute general partner.
9.2 TRANSFERS BY LIMITED PARTNERS.
(a) Subject to the provisions of Sections 9.2(b) and 9.3 hereof,
including, without limitation, compliance with any restrictions or limitations
set forth therein, each Limited Partner shall have the right to Transfer, with
or without the consent of the General Partner, all or a portion of its
Partnership Interest to any Person that is the Immediate Family of such Limited
Partner or an Affiliate of such Limited Partner, provided that prior written
notice of such proposed transfer is delivered to the General Partner. No other
Transfers of a Limited Partner's Partnership Interest may be effected without
the consent of the General Partner, which consent may be given, withheld or
conditioned in the General Partner's sole and absolute discretion.
(b) No transfer permitted or consented to under this Section 9.2
(other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all
obligations and liabilities of the transferor Partner are assumed by a successor
corporation or other Entity by operation of law)
32
38
shall relieve the transferor Limited Partner of its obligations under this
Agreement without the approval of the General Partner, in its sole and absolute
discretion. Upon such permitted or consented to Transfer, the transferee shall
be deemed to be an Assignee with respect to such Partnership Interest, but shall
not become or be admitted to the Partnership as a Substituted Limited Partner
without the consent of the General Partner, which consent may be given or
withheld in the General Partner' sole and absolute discretion and for any or no
reason whatsoever. An Assignee shall be entitled as a result of such Transfer
only to receive the economic benefits of the Partnership Interest to which the
transferor Limited Partner would otherwise be entitled, along with such
transferor Limited Partner's rights with respect to the Rights (although any
transferee of any transferred Partnership Interest shall be subject to any and
all ownership limitations contained in the corporate charter of the General
Partner as may be amended from time to time which may limit or restrict such
transferee's ability to exercise the Conversion Component of the Rights), and
such Assignee shall have no right (a) to participate in the management of the
Partnership or to vote on any matter requiring the consent or approval of the
Limited Partners, (b) to demand or receive any account of the Partnership's
business, or (c) to inspect the Partnership's books and records, unless and
until such Assignee is admitted to the Partnership as a Substituted Limited
Partner. A transferee of a Partnership Interest may become a Substituted Limited
Partner only upon the satisfaction of the following conditions: (A) filing with
the Partnership of a duly executed and acknowledged written instrument of
assignment in a form approved by the General Partner specifying the Partnership
Interest being assigned, setting forth the intention of the transferor Limited
Partner that such transferee succeed to the assignor's interest as a Limited
Partner and assuming by operation of law or express agreement all of the
obligations of the transferor Limited Partner under this Agreement with respect
to such transferred Partnership Interest; (B) execution and acknowledgment by
the transferor Limited Partner and such transferee of any other instruments
required in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner, including
the acceptance and adoption by such transferee of the provisions of this
Agreement; (C) obtaining the written consent of the General Partner as provided
in Section 9.2(a) above; and (D) payment of a transfer fee to the Partnership,
sufficient to cover the reasonable expenses of the substitution, if any. Any
transferee, whether or not admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, shall take
subject to the obligations of the transferor Limited Partner hereunder.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this
Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 9.2(b) hereof, shares of
Common Stock that are transferred to employees of the General Partner pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement and the Stock Incentive Pool and that are
subsequently sold by such employees shall not be subject to the restrictions on
such Common Stock that were imposed on the transferor immediately prior to such
transfer under this Agreement, provided that the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock released from such restrictions pursuant to this Section 9.2(c)
shall not exceed such limitations as established from time to time by the
General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion.
9.3 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. In addition to any other restrictions on
Transfer herein contained, in no event may any Transfer of a Partnership
Interest by any Partner be made and in no event shall Additional Units be issued
(i) to any Person that lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own a
Partnership Interest; (ii) in violation of any provision of any mortgage or
trust
33
39
deed (or the note or bond secured thereby) constituting a Lien against a
Property or any part thereof, or other instrument, document or agreement to
which the Partnership, SWIP or any other Investment Entity, the Existing
Property Manager or any other Entity in which the Partnership has an interest is
a party or is otherwise bound; (iii) in violation of applicable law, including,
without limitation, any applicable state securities "Blue Sky" law (including
investment suitability standards); (iv) in the event such Transfer or issuance
would cause the General Partner to cease to comply with the REIT Requirements;
(v) if such Transfer or issuance would cause a termination of the Partnership
for federal income tax purposes; (vi) if such Transfer or issuance would, in the
opinion of counsel to the Partnership, cause the Partnership to cease to be
classified as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes; (vii) if such
Transfer or issuance would cause the Partnership to become, with respect to any
employee benefit plan subject to Title 1 of ERISA, a "party-in-interest" (as
defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA) or a "disqualified person" (as defined in
Section 4975(c) of the Code); (viii) if such Transfer or issuance would, in the
opinion of counsel to the Partnership, cause any portion of the assets of the
Partnership to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to
Department of Labor Regulations Section 2510.3-101; (ix) if such Transfer or
issuance may not be effected without registration of such Partnership Interest
under the Securities Act, would require filing of a registration statement under
the Securities Act, or would otherwise violate any Federal, state or foreign
securities laws or regulations applicable to the Partnership or such Partnership
Interest; (x) if such Transfer or issuance would violate any provision of the
General Partner's Articles of Incorporation, as such may be amended from time to
time; or (xi) to a lender to the Partnership or any Person who is related
(within the meaning of Section 1.752-4(b) of the Regulations) to any lender to
the Partnership whose loan constitutes a "nonrecourse liability" (within the
meaning of Section 1.752-1(a)(2) of the Regulations) without the consent of the
General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, unless the Partnership's
basis for tax purposes would not be reduced as a result of such Transfer.
ARTICLE X
RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE LIMITED PARTNERS
10.1 NO PARTICIPATION IN MANAGEMENT. Except as expressly permitted
hereunder, the Limited Partners shall not take part in the management of the
Partnership's business, transact any business in the Partnership's name or have
the power to sign documents for or otherwise bind the Partnership.
10.2 BANKRUPTCY OF A LIMITED PARTNER AND CERTAIN OTHER EVENTS. The
Bankruptcy, death (subject to Section 10.9 below), incompetency, legal
incapacity, withdrawal or retirement of any Limited Partner shall not cause a
dissolution of the Partnership, but the rights of such Limited Partner to share
in the Net Income or Loss of the Partnership and to receive distributions of
Partnership funds shall, on the happening of such event, devolve on its
successors or assigns, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
and the Partnership shall continue as a limited partnership. However, in no
event shall such assignee(s) become a Substituted Limited Partner except in
accordance with Article IX hereof.
34
40
10.3 NO WITHDRAWAL. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in
Section 10.2 above, no Limited Partner may withdraw or retire from the
Partnership without the prior written consent of the General Partner, other than
as expressly provided in this Agreement.
10.4 DUTIES AND CONFLICTS. The General Partner recognizes that the Limited
Partners and their Affiliates have or may have other business interests,
activities and investments, some of which may be in conflict or competition with
the business of the Partnership, and that, subject to the provisions of Sections
10.5, 10.6 and 10.7 hereof, such persons are entitled to carry on such other
business interests, activities and investments; provided that each Limited
Partner that is a Senior Officer of the General Partner shall devote
substantially all of his time and attention to the business and affairs of the
Partnership (and its affiliated entities), except that such Limited Partners may
devote such time and attention to the Excluded Properties and the partnerships
that own the Excluded Properties as such Limited Partners shall reasonably
determine is necessary for them to fulfill their fiduciary duties to the
partnerships that own the Excluded Properties and the constituent partners
therein. Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7 hereof, the
Limited Partners and their Affiliates may engage in or possess an interest in
any other business or venture of any kind, independently or with others, on
their own behalf or on behalf of other entities with which they are affiliated
or associated, and such persons may engage in any activities, whether or not
competitive with the Partnership, without any obligation to offer any interest
in such activities to the Partnership or to any Partner. Except as otherwise
provided in Sections 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7 hereof, neither the Partnership nor any
Partner shall have any right, by virtue of this Agreement, in or to such
activities, or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of such
activities, even if competitive with the business of the Partnership, shall not
be deemed wrongful or improper.
10.5 ACQUISITION PROJECTS. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section
10.4 hereof to the contrary, each Limited Partner and/or its Controlled Entities
shall not, during the Restricted Period, acquire, directly or indirectly, a
Controlling or general partner interest in any Acquisition Project other than
through their ownership interest in the Partnership or the Existing Property
Manager (or such other Entity established by the General Partner in which the
Partnership holds an ownership interest in a manner similar to the ownership
interest that it holds in the Existing Property Manager), without the prior
written consent of the General Partner, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld so long as (i) such Acquisition Project will not be competitive with
any Property, (ii) such Acquisition Project will not require any substantial
time commitment from any Limited Partner or a material time commitment of the
Limited Partners in the aggregate, and (iii) the Limited Partner has first
notified the General Partner of the opportunity to acquire an equity ownership
interest in such Acquisition Project and the General Partner has informed the
Limited Partner that the Partnership does not desire to acquire such interest.
10.6 DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section
10.4 hereof to the contrary, each Limited Partner and its Controlled Entities
shall not, during the Restricted Period, acquire, hold, own, develop, construct,
improve, maintain, operate, sell, lease, transfer, encumber, convey or otherwise
deal with any Development Project other than through their ownership interest in
the Partnership or the Existing Property Manager or such other Entity
established by the General Partner in which the Partnership holds an ownership
interest in a
35
41
manner similar to the ownership interest that it holds in the Existing Property
Manager, without the prior written consent of the General Partner.
10.7 MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section
10.4 hereof to the contrary, each Limited Partner and its Controlled Entities
shall not, during the Restricted Period, operate or provide property,
development or asset management services in direct competition with any Property
other than through the Existing Property Manager or such other Entity
established by the General Partner in which the Partnership holds an ownership
interest in a manner similar to the ownership interest that it holds in the
Existing Property Manager.
10.8 ACQUISITION/DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS; MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES -- FURTHER
ASSURANCES. The Limited Partners acknowledge and agree that the restrictions
contained in Sections 10.5 and 10.6 hereof relating to Acquisition Projects and
Development Projects and the restrictions contained in Section 10.7 shall
continue to remain effective with respect to a Limited Partner and its
Controlled Entities for the applicable periods specified in such Sections 10.5,
10.6 and 10.7, notwithstanding any Transfer of the Partnership Interest of such
Limited Partner. In connection with the Transfer or conversion of a Limited
Partner's entire Partnership Interest, the Limited Partner shall execute and
deliver to the General Partner such instruments or documents as the General
Partner may reasonably request confirming the transferor Limited Partner's
obligations to continue to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.8 and
Sections 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7 hereof.
10.9 CONVERSION UPON DEATH. So long as Code Section 1014 or a successor
provision remains in effect and provides for the "step-up" in basis of an asset
upon death, as determined by the Partnership's counsel, upon the death of a
Limited Partner, all of such Limited Partner's Partnership Units shall, without
the taking of any action by the General Partner or any heir, representative,
administrator or executor of or for such Limited Partner, automatically convert
as of the date of such death into shares of Common Stock in the amount of the
Common Stock Amount; provided that the General Partner, in its sole and absolute
discretion, shall have the option, instead of issuing the Common Stock Amount to
the estate of the decedent Limited Partner, of paying to such estate the Cash
Amount or any combination of cash and Common Stock equal to the Cash Amount. In
determining the Cash Amount, the Closing Price shall be calculated as of the
date of death. Any "cash" owed may be paid in the form of cash, cashier's or
certified check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The General
Partner shall notify the executor, administrator, legal representative or
personal representative of the decedent Limited Partner's estate of the General
Partner's election to issue the Common Stock Amount, to pay the Cash Amount or
to deliver a combination thereof within a reasonable period of time after the
General Partner becomes aware of such death. In the event that any Liens exist
or arise with respect to the decedent Limited Partner's Partnership Units, the
Common Stock Amount or the Cash Amount, as the case may be, shall be reduced by
an amount necessary to discharge such Liens, as determined by the General
Partner in good faith, and the General Partner is expressly authorized to apply
such portion of the consideration as may be necessary to satisfy any
indebtedness in full and to discharge such Lien in full. In the event any state
or local property transfer tax is payable as a result of the transfer of the
decedent Limited Partner's Partnership Units to the General Partner (or its
designee), the decedent Limited Partner's estate shall assume and pay such
transfer tax. If the General Partner elects to pay a portion of the
consideration
36
42
owing in cash because the issuance of the Common Stock Amount would cause the
Person legally entitled to receive such Common Stock, together with such
Person's Affiliates, to Beneficially Own in the aggregate shares of Common Stock
in excess of the Ownership Limit, and, if as a result thereof the General
Partner elects to raise such cash through a public offering of its securities,
borrowings or otherwise, the Cash Amount shall be reduced by the Transaction
Expenses allocable to the amounts required to pay the Cash Amount hereunder;
provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Cash Amount shall not be
reduced hereunder by an amount exceeding 5% of the Cash Amount computed without
regard to the adjustment for Transaction Expenses.
10.10 LIMITED LIABILITY. No Limited Partner shall be bound by, or
personally liable for, the expenses, liabilities or obligations of the
Partnership, except as provided by this Agreement or the Act.
10.11 RIGHT OF OFFSET. The General Partner shall have the right to offset
any amounts owed to the Partnership by any Limited Partner pursuant to any
written agreement between such Limited Partner and the Partnership pursuant to
which such Limited Partner acquired Partnership Units against any amounts owed
to such Limited Partner by the Partnership hereunder, including the right to
cancel the Partnership Units held by such Limited Partner based upon the fair
market value of such Partnership Units on the date of such cancellation. In the
event that the General Partner exercises its offset rights under this Section
10.11, the General Partner shall notify the affected Limited Partner in writing
of such action.
ARTICLE XI

payment of the Cash Amount by the General Partner in respect of such Partnership
Interests, all in accordance with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, an Additional Limited Partner that acquires
Additional Units pursuant to Sections 4.3 and 4.7 hereof shall not acquire any
interest in, and may not exercise or otherwise participate in, any Rights
pursuant to this Article XI and attached Exhibit C, unless the General Partner
in its sole and absolute discretion approves in writing prior to or

37
43
which event said Schedule 1 shall be amended to add the name of such Additional
Limited Partner.
11.2 TERMS OF RIGHTS. The terms and provisions applicable to the Rights
shall be as set forth in attached Exhibit C, which terms and provisions are

ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES
12.1 ARBITRATION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, all claims, disputes and controversies between or among any of
the Partners (including, without limitation, any claims, disputes and
controversies between the Partnership and any one or more of the Partners and
any claims, disputes and controversies between any one or more Partners) arising
in any way out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Partnership shall
be resolved by binding arbitration in San Francisco, California, in accordance
with California Civil Procedure Code Sections 1280 et seq. (other than Section
1283.05), this Article XII and, to the extent not inconsistent with this Article
XII (other than the reference in this Article to Sections of the California
Civil Procedure Code), the Expedited Procedures and Commercial Arbitration Rules
of the American Arbitration Association (the "Arbitration Rules"). In the event
of any direct conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall control over any
conflicting provisions of the California Civil Code of Procedure and the
Arbitration Rules, and the terms of the Arbitration Rules shall control over any
conflicting provisions of the California Civil Code of Procedure.
12.2 PROCEDURES. Any arbitration called for by this Article XII shall be
conducted in accordance with the following procedures:
(a) The Partnership or any Partner (the "Requesting Party") may
demand arbitration pursuant to Section 12.1 hereof at any time by giving written
notice of such demand (the "Demand Notice") to any other Partner with respect to
which a claim, dispute or controversy exists hereunder and (if the Requesting
Party is not the Partnership) to the Partnership, which Demand Notice shall
describe in reasonable detail the nature of the claim, dispute or controversy.
(b) Within fifteen (15) days after the giving of a Demand Notice, the
Requesting Party, on the one hand, and each of the other Partners and/or the
Partnership against whom the claim has been made or with respect to which a
dispute has arisen (collectively, the "Responding Party"), on the other hand,
shall select and designate in writing to the other party one reputable,
disinterested individual (a "Qualified Individual") willing to act as an
arbitrator of the claim, dispute or controversy in question. Each of the
Requesting Party and the Responding Party shall use its best efforts to select a
present or former partner of a national accounting firm that is not then
currently employed by such party as its respective Qualified Individual. Within
fifteen (15) days after the foregoing selections have been made, the arbitrators
so selected shall jointly select a present or former partner of a national
accounting firm that is not then currently employed by any of the parties as the
third Qualified Individual willing to act as an arbitrator of the claim, dispute
or controversy in question (the "Third Arbitrator"). In the event that the two
arbitrators
38
44
initially selected are unable to agree on the Third Arbitrator within the second
fifteen (15) day period referred to above, then, on the application of either
party, the American Arbitration Association shall promptly select and appoint a
present or former partner of a national accounting firm that is not currently
employed by any of the parties as the Qualified Individual to act as the Third
Arbitrator in accordance with the terms of the Arbitration Rules. The three
arbitrators selected pursuant to this subsection (b) shall constitute the
arbitration panel for the arbitration in question.
(c) The presentations of the Partners in the arbitration proceeding
shall be commenced and completed within sixty (60) days after the selection of
the arbitration panel pursuant to subsection (b) above, and the arbitration
panel shall render its decision in writing within thirty (30) days after the
completion of such presentations. Any decision concurred in by any two (2) of
the arbitrators shall constitute the decision of the arbitration panel, and
unanimity shall not be required. If a decision concurred in by at least two (2)
of the arbitrators is not rendered within such thirty (30) day period, then each
of the parties shall select a new Qualified Individual willing to act as an
arbitrator and a new arbitration proceeding shall commence in accordance with
this Article XII.
(d) The arbitration panel shall have the discretion to include in its
decision a direction that all or part of the attorneys' fees and costs of the
prevailing party or parties and/or the costs of such arbitration be paid by any
other party or parties. On the application of a party before or after the
initial decision of the arbitration panel, and proof of its attorneys' fees and
costs, the arbitration panel shall order the other party to make any payments
directed pursuant to the preceding sentence.
(e) The Third Arbitrator shall have the right in its discretion to
authorize the obtaining of discovery, including the taking of depositions of
witnesses for the purpose of discovery.
(f) At the request of any party, the arbitrators shall make and
provide to the parties written findings of fact and conclusions of law.
(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, the
arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive damages.
12.3 BINDING CHARACTER. Any decision rendered by the arbitration panel
pursuant to this Article XII shall be final and binding on the parties thereto,
and judgment thereon may be entered by any state or federal court of competent
jurisdiction sitting in San Francisco, California.
12.4 EXCLUSIVITY. Arbitration shall be the exclusive method available for
resolution of claims, disputes and controversies described in Section 12.1
hereof, and the Partnership and its Partners stipulate that the provisions
hereof shall be a complete defense to any suit, action, or proceeding in any
court or before any administrative or arbitration tribunal with respect to any
such claim, controversy or dispute. The provisions of this Article XII shall
survive the dissolution of the Partnership. Each Partner consents to the
jurisdiction of any competent court
39
45
sitting in San Francisco, California to compel arbitration in accordance with
the provisions of this Article XII.
12.5 NO ALTERATION OF AGREEMENT. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
to give the arbitrators any authority, power or right to alter, change, amend,
modify, add to, or subtract from any of the provisions of this Partnership
Agreement.

acquisition and to obtain any additional information which the Partnership
and/or the General Partner possessed or could acquire without unreasonable
effort or expense that is necessary to verify the accuracy of the information

investment purposes only, and not with a view to any resale or distribution of
such Partnership Units, (ii) has been advised and understands that such

evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Partnership, and that
the Partnership and the General Partner made available to such Limited Partner,
at a reasonable time prior to its acquisition of its Partnership Interest, the
opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and
conditions of such acquisition and to obtain any additional information which
the Partnership and/or the General Partner possessed or could acquire without
unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to verify the accuracy of the
information furnished by the Partnership and the General Partner in connection
with such acquisition.

certain of the Limited Partners acknowledged that, in connection with any
proposed merger, tender offer or acquisition of the General Partner or the
Partnership or similar event, the General Partner's obligations to its
shareholders may conflict with the interests of the Limited Partners and that
each of such Limited Partners had consulted with its advisors, including legal
counsel, regarding such conflicts and understood such conflicts, and each of
such Limited Partners waived, and agreed that it would not pursue, any claims
against the General Partner to the extent that the General Partner is fulfilling
its obligations to its shareholders in connection with any such proposed merger,
tender offer, acquisition or similar event and agreed, to the extent that the
General Partner is fulfilling its obligations to its shareholders, not to enjoin
or to attempt to enjoin any such proposed merger, tender offer, acquisition or

Partner's interest in the Partnership, to the Partners in a manner that most
equitably reflects the successors in interest of such Partners);
(2) Second, to the General Partner, until the cumulative
Net Income allocated pursuant to this Subparagraph 1(a)(2) for the current and
all prior periods equals the cumulative Net Loss allocated pursuant to
Subparagraph 1(b)(2) hereof for all prior periods;
(3) Third, to the General Partner until the cumulative
amount of Net Income allocated pursuant to this Subparagraph 1(a)(3),
Subparagraph 1(a)(3) of Exhibit E to the First Restated Agreement as in effect
immediately prior to the Fourth Amendment thereto and Subparagraph 1(c)(1)(iii)
of Exhibit E to the First Restated Agreement as in effect immediately prior to
the Third Amendment thereto equals the total amount of dividends paid on the
Series A Preferred Stock as of or prior to the date of such allocation plus the
total amount of accrued but unpaid dividends on any Series A Preferred Stock
issued and outstanding as of such date plus the total amount of dividends paid
on the Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock as of or prior to the date
of such allocation plus the total amount of accrued but unpaid dividends on any
Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of such
date plus the total amount of dividends paid on the Series C Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Stock as of or prior to the date of such allocation plus
the total amount of accrued but unpaid dividends on any Series C Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of such date;
(4) Fourth, to the General Partner on account of the
Common B Interest and the Common C Interest, an amount equal to the sum of (x)
$0.0625 per annum multiplied by the number of shares issued and outstanding of
Class B Common Stock, plus (y) $0.05 per annum multiplied by the number of
shares issued and outstanding of Class C Common Stock, prorated on a daily basis
over each calendar year, and adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect any variance
in the number of such shares issued and outstanding from time to time; and
(5) Thereafter, the balance of the Net Income, if any,
shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective
Percentage Interests.
B-1
91
(b) Net Loss. Net Loss of the Partnership for each fiscal year or
other applicable period shall be allocated as follows:
(1) First, to the Partners in accordance with their
respective Percentage Interests until the Capital Account balances of the
Limited Partners are reduced to zero (for purpose of this calculation, such
Partners' share of Partnership Minimum Gain shall be added back to their Capital
Accounts);
(2) Second, to the General Partner until its Capital
Account balance has been reduced to zero (for purpose of this calculation, such
Partner's share of Partnership Minimum Gain shall be added back to its Capital
Account);
(3) Thereafter, to the Partners in accordance with their
then Percentage Interests; and
(4) Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this
Subparagraph 1(b), to the extent that any Net Loss allocated to a Partner under
Subparagraph 1(b) would cause such Partner (hereinafter, a "Restricted Partner")
to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as of the end of the fiscal year to
which such Net Loss relates, such Net Loss shall not be allocated to such
Restricted Partner and instead shall be allocated to the other Partner(s)
(hereinafter, the "Permitted Partners") pro rata in accordance with their
relative Percentage Interests.
(c) Book-Up and Capital Account Adjustments. On any
day on which Series A Preferred Stock is redeemed or converted into Common Stock
or the Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock is redeemed or the Series
C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock is redeemed, the Partnership may, in the
discretion of the General Partner, adjust the Gross Asset Values of all
Partnership assets to equal their respective gross fair market values and shall
allocate the amount of such adjustment as Net Income or Net Loss pursuant to
Paragraph 1(a) hereof.
Special Allocations.
Notwithstanding any provisions of Paragraph 1 of this
Exhibit B, the following special allocations shall be made in the following
order:
(a) Minimum Gain Chargeback (Nonrecourse Liabilities). If there
is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain for any Partnership fiscal year
(except as a result of conversion or refinancing of Partnership indebtedness,
certain capital contributions or revaluation of the Partnership property as
further outlined in Regulation Sections 1.704-2(d)(4), (f)(2) or (f)(3)), each
Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for
such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to that
Partner's share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain. The items to be
so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulation Section
1.704-2(f). This Paragraph 2(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain
chargeback requirement in said section of the Regulations and shall be
B-2
92
interpreted consistently therewith. Allocations pursuant to this Paragraph 2(a)
shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated
to each Partner pursuant hereto.
(b) Minimum Gain Attributable to Partner Nonrecourse Debt. If
there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain Attributable to Partner Nonrecourse Debt
during any fiscal year (other than due to the conversion, refinancing or other
change in the debt instrument causing it to become partially or wholly
nonrecourse, certain capital contributions, or certain revaluations of
Partnership property as further outlined in Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4)),
each Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain
for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to that
Partner's share of the net decrease in the Minimum Gain Attributable to Partner
Nonrecourse Debt. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance
with Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and (j)(2). This Paragraph 2(b) is
intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement with respect to
Partner Nonrecourse Debt contained in said section of the Regulations and shall
be interpreted consistently therewith. Allocations pursuant to this Paragraph
2(b) shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be
allocated to each Partner pursuant hereto.
(c) Qualified Income Offset. In the event a Limited Partner
unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in
Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6), and such Limited
Partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, items of Partnership income and
gain shall be specially allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner
sufficient to eliminate the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as quickly as
possible. This Paragraph 2(c) is intended to constitute a "qualified income
offset" under Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted
consistently therewith.
(d) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal
year or other applicable period shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance
with their respective Percentage Interests.
(e) Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Partner Nonrecourse
Deductions for any fiscal year or other applicable period shall be specially
allocated to the Partner that bears the economic risk of loss for the debt
(i.e., the Partner Nonrecourse Debt) in respect of which such Partner
Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable (as determined under Regulation Section
1.704-2(b)(4) and (i)(1)).
(f) Curative Allocations. It is the intent of the Partnership
that, to the extent possible, the Capital Account balances of the Partners be in
the following relationship: (1) first, the Capital Account of the General
Partner should be at least equal to $25.00 multiplied by the number of issued
and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Stock and Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock;
and (2) second, the Limited Partners' Capital Account balances and the General
Partner's Capital Account balance in excess of the product described in (1)
should be in proportion to their Percentage Interests. Thus, items of "book"
income, gain, loss, and deduction shall be allocated among the Partners so that,
to the extent possible, the resulting Partners' Capital Account balances bear
this relationship. This Paragraph 2(f) is intended to minimize to the extent
possible and to the extent necessary any economic distortions which may result
from application
B-3
93
of the Regulatory Allocations and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent
therewith. For purposes hereof, "Regulatory Allocations" shall mean the
allocations provided under Subparagraph 1(b)(2) and this Paragraph 2 (save
Subparagraphs 2(d) and (f) hereof).
(g) Merit Plan. To the extent that the Partnership recognizes
income or gain or is entitled to deduction, expense or loss with respect to
transfers of interests pursuant to the Merit Plan, all such items shall be
allocated among the Limited Partners in accordance with the Merit Plan.
3. Tax Allocations.
(a) Generally. Subject to Paragraphs 3(b) and (c) below, items of
income, gain, loss, deduction and credit to be allocated for income tax purposes
(collectively, "Tax Items") shall be allocated among the Partners on the same
basis as their respective book items.
(b) Sections 1245/1250 Recapture. If any portion of gain from the
sale of property is treated as gain which is ordinary income by virtue of the
application of Code Section 1245 or 1250 ("Affected Gain"), then (A) such
Affected Gain shall be allocated among the Partners in the same proportion that
the depreciation and amortization deductions giving rise to the Affected Gain
were allocated and (B) other Tax Items of gain of the same character that would
have been recognized, but for the application of Code Sections 1245 and/or 1250,
shall be allocated away from those Partners who are allocated Affected Gain
pursuant to Clause (A) so that, to the extent possible, the other Partners are
allocated the same amount, and type, of capital gain that would have been
allocated to them had Code Sections 1245 and/or 1250 not applied; provided,
however, that the net amount of Tax Items allocated to each Partner shall be the
same as if this Paragraph 3(a) did not exist. For purposes hereof, in order to
determine the proportionate allocations of depreciation and amortization
deductions for each fiscal year or other applicable period, such deductions
shall be deemed allocated on the same basis as Net Income and Net Loss for such
respective period.
(c) Allocations Respecting Section 704(c) and Revaluations. If
any Partnership property is subject to Code Section 704(c) or is reflected in
the Capital Accounts of the Partners and on the books of the Partnership at a
book value that differs from the adjusted tax basis of such property, then the
tax items with respect to such property shall, in accordance with the
requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i), be shared among the
Partners in a manner that takes account of the variation between the adjusted
tax basis of the applicable property and its book value in the same manner as
variations between the adjusted tax basis and fair market value of property
contributed to the Partnership are taken into account in determining the
Partners' share of tax items under Code Section 704(c). The General Partner is
authorized to choose any reasonable method permitted by the Regulations pursuant
to Code Section 704(c), including the "remedial" method, the "curative" method
and the "traditional" method.
(d) Code Section 752 Specification. Pursuant to Regulations
Section 1.752-3, the Partners' interest in Partnership profits for purposes of
determining the Partners' shares of excess nonrecourse liabilities shall be
their Percentage Interests.

possessing Rights ("Exercising Partners") may, subject to the limitations set
forth herein:
C-1
95
(a) deliver to the General Partner written notice ("Conversion
Component Exercise Notice") pursuant to which such Exercising Partners elect to
exercise their Rights to convert ("Conversion Rights") all or any portion of
their Partnership Units into shares of Common Stock, subject to the limitations
contained in Paragraphs 4 and 5 below; and
(b) deliver to the General Partner written notice ("Sale Component

their Rights to sell ("Sale Rights") all or any portion of their Partnership
Units to the General Partner (or the General Partner's designee), subject to the

3. LIMITATIONS ON EXERCISE OF SALE RIGHTS. The first Sale Component

deemed to own all shares of Common Stock issuable to such Limited Partner and
its Affiliates upon the conversion of convertible securities held by it and the
exercise of stock options granted on or before such date under the Stock
Incentive Plan. If a Conversion Component Exercise Notice is delivered to the
General Partner, but, as a result of the Ownership Limit or as a result of

Ownership Limit or under the Certificate of Incorporation of the General
Partner, with the remainder of such Conversion Rights being deemed to be Sale
Rights and with the corresponding portion of the Conversion Component Exercise
Notice being deemed to be a Sale Component Exercise Notice.
5. FREQUENCY OF EXERCISE; SIZE OF OFFERED INTEREST. Each Limited
Partner shall be permitted to deliver up to four (4) separate Exercise Notices
per calendar year. Without the prior written consent of the General Partner,
which consent may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion, no Exercising
Partner may exercise Rights for less than five hundred (500) Partnership Units
or, if such Exercising Partner holds less than five hundred (500) Partnership
Units, all of the Partnership Units held by such Exercising Partner.
6. COMPUTATION OF CONSIDERATION/FORM OF PAYMENT. With respect to
the exercise of Conversion Rights, the consideration payable for the Offered
Interest shall be the issuance by the General Partner of the Common Stock
Amount. With respect to the exercise of Sale Rights, the consideration shall, in
the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner, be paid in the form of
(a) cash, cashier's or certified check, or by wire transfer of immediately
C-2
96
available funds to the Exercising Partner's designated account in the amount of
the Cash Amount, or (b) by the issuance by the General Partner of the Common
Stock Amount, or (c) any combination of cash and Common Stock equal to the Cash
Amount.
7. CLOSING; DELIVERY OF ELECTION NOTICE. The closing of the
acquisition of Offered Interests shall, unless otherwise mutually agreed, be
held at the principal offices of the General Partner, on the following date(s):
(a) With respect to the exercise of Conversion Rights, the closing
shall occur on the date agreed to by the General Partner and the Exercising
Partners, which date shall in no event occur after the later of (i) ten (10)
days after the date of the Conversion Component Exercise Notice or (ii) the
expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable to each Exercising
Partner, if any, under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act; and
(b) With respect to the exercise of Sale Rights, the General
Partner shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt by the General Partner of
any Sale Component Exercise Notice delivered in accordance with the requirements
of Paragraph 3 above, deliver to the Exercising Partners an Election Notice,
which Election Notice shall set forth the computation of the Cash Amount and
shall specify the form of the consideration (which shall be in accordance with
Paragraph 6 above) to be paid by the General Partner to such Exercising Partners
and the date, time and location for completion of the purchase and sale of the
Offered Interests, which date shall in no event be later than (i) ten (10) days
after delivery by the General Partner of the Election Notice for Offered
Interests with respect to which the General Partner has elected to pay the
consideration by issuance of shares of its Common Stock (or, if later, the
expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable to each Exercising
Partner, if any, under the Xxxx- Xxxxx Act) or (ii) sixty (60) days after the
initial date of receipt by the General Partner of the Sale Component Rights
Notice for Offered Interests with respect to which the General Partner has
elected to pay the Cash Amount; provided, however, that such sixty (60) day
period may be extended for an additional period to the extent required for the
General Partner to cause additional shares of its Common Stock to be issued to
provide financing to be used to acquire the Offered Interests. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the General Partner agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts
to cause the closing of the acquisition of Offered Interests hereunder to occur
as quickly as possible.
8. ADJUSTMENT TO PURCHASE PRICE. If, with respect to the exercise
of Sale Rights, the General Partner elects to pay all or any portion of the
consideration under Paragraph 6 above in cash and if as a result thereof the
General Partner elects to raise such cash through a public offering of its
securities, borrowings or otherwise, the Cash Amount shall be reduced by an
amount ("Transaction Expenses") equal to the expenses incurred by the General
Partner in connection with such raising of funds allocable to the amounts
required to pay the Cash Amount hereunder; provided, however, notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Cash Amount shall not be reduced hereunder by an amount
exceeding 5% of the Cash Amount computed without regard to the adjustment for
Transaction Expenses.
9. CLOSING DELIVERIES. At the closing of the purchase and sale of
Offered Interests, payment of the consideration shall be accompanied by proper
instruments of transfer
C-3
97
and assignment and by the delivery of (i) representations and warranties of (A)
the Exercising Partner with respect to its due authority to sell all of the
right, title and interest in and to such Offered Interests to the General
Partner and, with respect to the status of the Partnership Units being
transferred, free and clear of all Liens, and (B) the General Partner with
respect to due authority for the purchase of such Offered Interests, and (ii) to
the extent that any shares of Common Stock are issued in payment of the
consideration or any portion thereof, a stock certificate or certificates
evidencing the Common Stock to be issued and registered in the name of the
Exercising Partner or its designee.
10. TERM OF RIGHTS. Unless sooner terminated, the rights of the
parties with respect to the Rights shall commence as of the Completion of the
Offering and lapse for all purposes and in all respects on the fiftieth (50th)
anniversary of the Completion of the Offering; provided, however, that the
parties hereto shall continue to be bound by an Exercise Notice delivered to the
General Partner prior to such anniversary.
11. COVENANTS OF THE GENERAL PARTNER. To facilitate the General
Partner's ability to fully perform its obligations hereunder, the General
Partner covenants and agrees as follows:
(a) At all times during the pendency of the Rights, the General
Partner shall reserve for issuance such number of shares of Common Stock as may
be necessary to enable the General Partner to issue such shares in exchange for
all of the Partnership Units held by Limited Partners which are from time to
time outstanding.
(b) As long as the General Partner shall be obligated to file
periodic reports under the Exchange Act, the General Partner will timely file
such reports in such manner as shall enable any recipient of Common Stock issued
to Limited Partners hereunder in reliance upon an exemption from registration
under the Securities Act to continue to be eligible to utilize Rule 144
promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act, or any successor rule or
regulation or statute thereunder, for the resale thereof.
(c) During the pendency of the Rights, the Limited Partners shall
receive in a timely manner all reports filed by the General Partner with the SEC
and all other communications transmitted from time to time by the General
Partner to its stockholders generally.
(d) Under no circumstances shall the General Partner declare any
stock dividend, stock split, stock distribution or the like, unless fair and
equitable arrangements are provided, to the extent necessary, to fully adjust,
and to avoid any dilution in, the rights of Limited Partners under this
Agreement.
(e) Notwithstanding the General Partner's determination as to the
form in which the consideration for the Offered Interests shall be payable, the
General Partner shall be required to pay such consideration by cashier's check
or wire transfer of immediately available funds to the extent that payment by
issuance of Common Stock would disqualify the General Partner from being
characterized as a REIT.
C-4
98
12. LIMITED PARTNER'S COVENANT. Each Limited Partner covenants and
agrees with the General Partner that all Offered Interests tendered to the
General Partner in accordance with the exercise of Rights herein provided shall
be delivered to the General Partner free and clear of all Liens, and should any
Liens exist or arise with respect to such Offered Interests, the General Partner
shall be under no obligation to acquire the same unless, in connection with such
acquisition, the General Partner has elected in its sole and absolute discretion
to pay such portion of the consideration therefor in the form of cash in
circumstances where such cash will be sufficient to cause such existing Lien to
be discharged in full upon application of all or a part of such consideration
and the General Partner is expressly authorized to apply such portion of the
consideration as may be necessary to satisfy any indebtedness in full and to
discharge such Lien in full. Each Limited Partner further agrees that, in the
event any state or local property transfer tax or sales tax is payable as a
result of the transfer of its Offered Interests to the General Partner (or its
designee), such Limited Partner shall assume and pay such transfer and/or sales
tax.
