basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes, except that (a) the
initial Book Value of any asset contributed by a Partner to the Partnership
shall be the Fair Market Value of such asset, and (b) the Book Value of all
Partnership assets shall be adjusted to equal their Fair Market Values, as
determined in good faith by the General Partner, upon the occurrence of certain
events as described below. In either case, the Book Value of

into
account with respect to such asset. Provided the Tax Matters Partner

of the Regulations, the Book Value of Partnership assets shall be adjusted
to
equal their Fair Market Value, as determined in good faith by the General
Partner, as of the following times to which the election

Partnership, provided that the consideration contributed to the Partnership

Code
Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) have been taken into account for
purposes of determining Capital Accounts in accordance with Regulation
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), unless such adjustments have already been
accounted for pursuant to the preceding paragraph. If the Book Value
of an asset has been determined or adjusted pursuant hereto, such value shall
thereafter be the basis for, and be adjusted by, the depreciation taken into
account with respect to, such asset for purposes of computing Profits and
Losses. Moreover, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Book Value of
any Partnership asset distributed to any Partner shall be the gross Fair
Market
Value of such asset on the date of distribution.

and a
brief narrative description of the material portions thereof;
(ii) a
plan of operations for each Qualified Asset, including anticipated repairs
and

Qualified Asset;
(iv) estimated
cash flow projections for the Partnership and each Qualified Asset;
(v) a
description of tenants then in occupancy in each Qualified Asset;
24
(vi) a
schedule of Qualified Assets, any leases which are expiring during such
fiscal year and the plans for the re-leasing of such Qualified Assets and

the
General Partner is aware;
(vii) projected
capital improvements and capital repairs;
(viii) a
description of any Proposed Qualified Assets to the extent identified, including

and
(ix) any
other information relative to the management of the Qualified Assets or the
Partnership reasonably requested by any member of the Executive
Committee.
The
General Partner shall prepare and submit a Proposed Plan to the Executive
Committee on or before November 15th of the year prior to such fiscal
year. The Executive Committee shall approve or disapprove such
revised Proposed Plan no later than December 15th of the year prior to the
fiscal year covered by such revised Proposed Plan. Any Proposed Plan
approved by the Executive Committee in accordance with Section 3.4 shall
become the annual plan for the next fiscal year of the Partnership (any Proposed
Plan approved by the Executive Committee for any fiscal year of the Partnership,
and as may be amended from time to time by a Plan Amendment, an “Annual
Plan”). A model of an Annual Plan is attached as
Schedule 3.5 and made a part hereof. The General Partner,

accordance with the procedures outlined herein which Proposed Plan upon approval

(b) Dispute
Concerning an Annual Budget. If, prior to the commencement of any
fiscal year, the Executive Committee has disapproved the Proposed Plan because
it could not reach an agreement as to the amount to be allocated to any budget
line item set forth in the Annual Budget portion of the Proposed Plan for
such
fiscal year, then (i) as to any such disputed budget line item, the Annual
Budget portion of the Annual Plan for the immediately preceding fiscal year
(exclusive of any non-recurring capital expenditures) shall be controlling
but
only with respect to such disputed budget line item (in each case adjusted
to
reflect the increases in the CPI for November of such fiscal year over the
CPI
for November of such immediately preceding fiscal year) and only until such
time
as the Executive Committee has approved the amount to be allocated to such
budget line item, and (ii) as to any budget line item or items that are not
in dispute, the Annual Budget portion of the Proposed Plan shall
control.
(c) Amendments
to Annual Plans. If in any Partner’s judgment an Annual Plan
requires amendment, such Partner shall deliver to the Executive Committee
a
written notice setting forth the proposed amendment to the Annual Plan and
the
basis therefor. The Executive Committee shall approve or disapprove,
in accordance with Section 3.4 hereof, such proposed amendment within ten
(10) Business Days after receipt thereof, and, if the Executive Committee
shall
approve such proposed amendment (any such amendment, a
“Plan
25
Amendment”),
the Annual Plan (including, without limitation any amendments to the Annual
Budget portion thereof) shall be amended by the Plan Amendment as set forth
in
the written notice described in the preceding sentence. If the
Executive Committee shall disapprove a Plan Amendment, then the Annual Plan
then
in effect shall not be amended pursuant to such disapproved Plan
Amendment.
Section
3.6 Qualified
Asset Acquisitions.
(a) Generally;
Approval by Executive Committee. During the Acquisition Period,
LMLP GP shall identify net-leased assets that meet the Acquisition Parameters
as
candidates for acquisition, directly or indirectly, by the Partnership (any

Asset Manager shall submit the Acquisition Memorandum described in
Section 3.6(b) hereof with respect to the Proposed Qualified Asset
or a Non-Parameter Asset that LMLP GP recommends for acquisition by the
Partnership to the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee shall
have seven (7) Business Days after its receipt of the Acquisition Memorandum
to
approve or disapprove of the acquisition of a Proposed Qualified Asset or
Non-Parameter Asset in accordance with Section 3.4 hereof.
(b) Acquisition
Memorandum. For each Proposed Qualified Asset and Non-Parameter
Asset, LMLP GP or Asset Manager shall deliver to the Executive Committee
an
Acquisition Memorandum describing such Proposed Qualified Asset or Non-Parameter
Asset in reasonable detail, including without limitation:
(i) whether
it is a Proposed Qualified Asset or a Non-Parameter Asset;
(ii) the
size and location thereof;

if necessary;

identification of each tenant and financial information relating to each
such
tenant;
(xi) such
other information and documentation any member of the Executive Committee
may
reasonably request and is reasonably available, including the purchase and
sale
agreement and loan documents.
(c) Assets
Which Do Not Comply With Acquisition Parameters. LMLP GP may
submit net-leased assets that do not comply in all respects with the Acquisition
Parameters (each, a “Non-Parameter Asset”) to the Executive Committee for
approval pursuant to Section 3.6(a) hereof.
(d) Acquisition
of Approved Qualified Assets. Upon receipt of the written
approval of a majority of the members of the Executive Committee as provided
in
Section 3.6(a) above of the acquisition by the Partnership of a
Proposed Qualified Asset or Non-Parameter Asset (any Proposed Qualified Asset
or
Non-Parameter Asset so approved, an “Approved Qualified
Asset”), LMLP GP or Asset Manager shall take all commercially
reasonable efforts on behalf of the Partnership to negotiate and execute
all
documents necessary to acquire the Approved Qualified Asset pursuant to and
in
accordance with the terms approved by the Partners (including formation of
an SP
Subsidiary, if applicable) and to complete due diligence that the General
Partner deems reasonably necessary, including (to the extent not already
completed) obtaining an Environmental Assessment and a Physical Inspection
Report. LMLP GP or Asset Manager shall keep the Executive Committee
reasonably informed of the progress of the Partnership’s acquisition of any
Approved Qualified Asset, including the material findings of all due diligence
and of any material matters that arise during the course
thereof. Upon completion of all due diligence undertaken as specified
above with respect to an Approved Qualified Asset and as a condition to
completing the acquisition of the Approved Qualified Asset, LMLP GP or Asset
Manager shall deliver to the Executive Committee a memorandum summarizing
the
material findings of the completed due diligence and any changes in the status
of such Approved Qualified Asset since the date of the Acquisition Memorandum
described in Section 3.6(b) above and the Executive Committee, in
accordance with Section 3.4 hereof, shall confirm its continuing approval
of the acquisition before LMLP GP commits (on a nonrefundable basis) the
Partnership’s funds as provided below. Upon request by any member of
the Executive Committee, LMLP GP or Asset Manager will provide to the Executive
Committee copies of the Environmental Assessment, the Physical Inspection
Report
and the survey after completion thereof.
It
is understood and agreed that (x)
LMLP GP may deposit its own funds, or cause the Partnership to deposit
Partnership funds, as refundable xxxxxxx money, and (y) the Partnership’s funds
shall be substituted (and such funds reimbursed to LMLP GP) or committed,
as the
case may be, on a nonrefundable basis only after due diligence is completed
and
the Executive Committee has confirmed its continuing approval of the
acquisition. After the Partnership has committed its funds on a
nonrefundable basis in
27
accordance
with the prior sentence, if the terms of the acquisition change in any material
respect from the terms described in the Acquisition Memorandum, such change
shall require the consent of a majority of the members of the Executive
Committee.
An
acquisition of a Approved Qualified
Asset shall be made through SP Subsidiaries utilizing the SP Subsidiary
Agreements.
Within
five (5) Business Days after the
closing of the acquisition of an Approved Qualified Asset, LMLP GP shall
deliver
to the Partners a closing statement acknowledging the receipt of and setting
forth the application of the Partners’ Capital Contributions and any other funds
of the Partnership used to acquire such Approved Qualified Asset or to pay
closing costs (including an estimate of costs not finalized at closing,
including legal fees and costs) associated therewith.
(e) Disapproved
Qualified Assets. If the Executive Committee (x) disapproves any
Proposed Qualified Asset or any proposed Non-Parameter Asset, (y) fails after
the completion of due diligence to confirm its continuing approval of the
acquisition of an Approved Qualified Asset as provided in Section 3.6(d)
above,
or (z) otherwise withdraws its approval of an Approved Qualified Asset as
provided in Section 3.6(d) above, LMLP GP shall not cause or permit
the Partnership to acquire such Proposed Qualified Asset, proposed Non-Parameter
Asset or Approved Qualified Asset and the LMLP Partners or their designee
shall
have the right to acquire such Proposed Qualified Asset, proposed Non-Parameter
Asset or Approved Qualified Asset for their own account or with or in connection
with any other Person; provided that such right shall not apply if the
members of the Executive Committee appointed by Inland vote to approve the
acquisition in accordance with Section 3.4 hereof.
(f) Acquisition
Costs. Except as provided in this Section 3.6(f) and in
Section 3.6(g) hereof, LMLP GP or the Asset Manager (as the case may
be) shall be liable for all costs and expenses (“Acquisition
Costs”) arising in connection with the identification or evaluation of,
the bidding on and the structuring and negotiation of and contracting for
the
acquisition or attempted acquisition of, and the due diligence undertaken
in
connection with, any Proposed Qualified Asset or Approved Qualified Asset
(such
activities, the “Acquisition Activities”); provided
that:
(i) the
Partnership shall (x) reimburse LMLP GP or the Asset Manager (as the case
may
be) for all Acquisition Costs and (y) be liable for all reasonable and customary
costs and expenses of Third Parties retained in connection with the Acquisition
Activities related to Approved Qualified Assets;
(ii) the
Partnership shall reimburse LMLP GP or the Asset Manager (as the case may
be)
for 60% of the Acquisition Costs in connection with Acquisition Activities
related to Proposed Qualified Assets and Approved Qualified Assets that are
disapproved by the Executive Committee;
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, but subject to Section 3.9 hereof, if for any reason other
than pursuant to Article XI hereof any LMLP Affiliated Party (instead of
the Partnership or an SP Subsidiary) acquires title to any Proposed Qualified
Asset or Approved
28
Qualified
Asset, LMLP shall pay all of the costs and expenses (and reimburse the
Partnership for any refundable or nonrefundable deposits funded by the
Partnership in connection with the acquisition of such asset) incurred or
to be
incurred in connection with the Acquisition Activities relating to such Proposed
Qualified Asset or Approved Qualified Asset.
(g) Acquisition
Fee. Upon the acquisition of any Approved Qualified Asset by the
Partnership or by an SP Subsidiary (including any Approved Qualified Asset
contributed in whole or in part by LMLP to the Partnership), pursuant to
this
Section 3.6, Inland shall pay LMLP GP or the Asset Manager an
acquisition fee (the “Acquisition Fee”) equal to the sum of the

(b) Partnership
Management Fee. The General Partner shall cause the Partnership
to pay to the Asset Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement an annual
Partnership Management Fee (“Partnership Management Fee”) equal
to (x) so long as LMLP GP is the General Partner, Inland’s Percentage Interest
multiplied by three hundred seventy five thousandths of a percent (0.375%)
of
the Equity Capital for a fiscal year (pro rated for partial years), or (y)
so
long as LMLP GP is no longer the General Partner, three hundred seventy five
thousandths of a percent (0.375%) of the Equity Capital for a fiscal year
(pro
rated for partial years), in either case payable monthly and adjusted as

shares of such Capital Call and will be treated for purposes of this Agreement
as if each pro rata share of
33
such
amount were an actual Capital Contribution made by the respective LMLP Partner
which (1) reduces the respective aggregate Capital Commitment of each LMLP
Partner and (2) gives rise to an entitlement to allocations (but only out
of
subsequent Profits), and related distributions, in amounts that reflect the

which the General Partner is requiring that such Additional Capital Contribution
be contributed to the Partnership, which due date shall be at least ten (10)
Business Days after the date on which the Partners actually received the
Capital
Call and not more than one (1) Business Day prior to the scheduled closing
of
the acquisition of such Approved Qualified Asset; each Partner shall contribute
its share of such Additional Capital Contribution in immediately available
funds
on or before such due date. If the acquisition of an Approved
Qualified Asset fails to close and the General Partner determines there will
not
be a closing within fifteen (15) days of the date of the originally scheduled
closing, the General Partner (x) shall inform the Partners of such failure
and return each Partner’s share of the Additional Capital Contribution made with
respect thereto and (y) each Partner’s Capital Contribution shall be
restored to the level thereof immediately prior to such Additional Capital
Contribution. If, at any time after the Partners have each
contributed their entire Capital Commitment, the Partners elect to contribute
additional capital, the Partners shall contribute such additional capital
in
accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.
(c) Extraordinary
Fundings. In the event the Partnership requires additional funds
to cover any costs and expenses for which the Partnership has insufficient
funds, including tenant improvements and capital expenditures, the General
Partner may make a written request therefor (any such request, an
“Extraordinary Call”) setting forth the amount requested and
the due date therefor, which due date shall be at least ten (10) Business
Days
after the date on which the Partners actually received the Extraordinary
Call;
provided that (i) any amount requested shall not exceed 5% of the
Purchase Price of the Qualified Asset if such funds are to be used for a
specific Qualified Asset or (ii) the aggregate of all amounts requested shall
not exceed $20,000,000 if such funds are to be used for the Partnership
generally (such amount, the “Extraordinary Call Cap”);
provided further that no Partner shall be required to contribute
any
capital to the Partnership in excess of such Partner’s Capital
Commitment. Each

(d) Failure
to Fund an Additional Capital Contribution or Extraordinary
Funding. If any Partner (a “Defaulting Partner”)
fails to make any Additional Capital Contribution or Extraordinary Funding
which
it is required to make under this Section 5.1 by the due date
therefor, then any non-defaulting Partner shall not be permitted to make
such
Additional Capital Contribution or Extraordinary Funding, but may, at its
election, make a loan to the Partnership (a “Priority Loan”) in
an amount equal to the amount that Additional Capital Contribution or
Extraordinary Funding required. Upon election to make a Priority
Loan, (i) the non-defaulting Partner shall loan to the Partnership the amount
of
the Defaulting Partner’s share of the Additional Capital Contribution or
Extraordinary Funding, as the case may be, as determined in accordance with
Section 5.1(b) or Section 5.1(c), as the case may be, (ii) such Priority
Loan
shall bear interest at a rate of 18% per annum cumulative compounded from
the
date such Priority Loan is made, (iii) the Annual Budget portion of the Annual
Plan shall be amended to reflect such Priority Loan, and (iv) such Priority
Loan
(including interest accrued thereon) shall be repaid from Net Cash Flow from
Operations or Net Cash from Sales or Refinancing prior to any
distribution.
Section
5.2 Preferred
Equity Capital Contribution. Upon the acquisition of a
Qualified Assumed Asset and subject to Section 3.8(a), LMLP shall make a
Preferred Equity Capital Contribution in an amount determined in accordance
with
this Agreement and the Letter Agreement; provided that the aggregate Preferred
Equity Capital Contribution shall not exceed $216,248,000.00. The
Preferred Equity shall be redeemed by the Partnership (i) in accordance with
Section 7.1(a)(ii) and Section 11.3(g) hereof and (ii) at the
election of either the Partnership or LMLP, if any Preferred Equity remains
outstanding on the tenth anniversary of the date first set forth above, on
the
tenth anniversary of the date first set forth above in full together with
all
accrued and unpaid Preferred Equity Return. The General Partner shall
update Schedule 1 hereto to reflect the Preferred Equity Capital
Contribution and any redemption of Preferred Equity pursuant to this Section
5.2 or Section 7.1 hereof.
Section
5.3 Return
of Capital Contribution. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, (a) the Capital Contribution of a Partner will
be returned to that Partner only in the manner and to the extent provided
in
Article VII and Article IX hereof and (b) no
Partner shall have any right to demand or receive the return of its Capital
Contribution. In the event the Partnership is required or compelled
to return any Capital Contribution, no Partner shall have the right to receive
assets other than cash. No Partner shall be entitled to interest on
its Capital Contribution or Capital Account notwithstanding any disproportion
therein as between the Partners.
Section
5.4 Liability
of the Limited Partners. No Limited Partner shall have
any personal liability to the Partnership, to any Partner, to the creditors
of
the
40
Partnership
or to any other Person for any debt,
liability or obligation of the Partnership. No Limited Partner shall
be required to contribute funds or capital to the Partnership in excess of
its
Capital Commitment although Limited Partners may at their option contribute
funds in excess of their respective Capital Commitments pursuant to
Section 5.1(c) and Section 5.1(d) hereof.
Section
5.5 No
Third Party Beneficiaries. The foregoing provisions of
this Article V are not intended to be for the benefit of any
creditor of the Partnership or any other Person, and no creditor of the

make any Capital Contribution. Additional Capital Contributions and
Extraordinary Fundings are not payable unless and until the conditions set
forth
in Section 5.1 hereof have been satisfied, and no creditor of the
Partnership or any other Person shall have, or be given, any right to cause
a
Capital Call or Extraordinary Call to be given by the General
Partner.

FOR BOOK AND TAX PURPOSES
Section
6.1 Capital
Accounts.
(a) Generally: Credits
to Capital Accounts. A Capital Account shall be established and
maintained for each Partner. Initially, the Capital Account of each
Partner shall be credited with each Partner’s respective Initial Capital
Contribution. Thereafter, each Partner’s Capital Account shall be
credited with any Preferred Equity Capital Contributions, Additional Capital
Contributions or Extraordinary Capital Contributions made or contributed
by such
Partner and such Partner’s allocable share of Profits, any individual items of
income and gain allocated to such Partner pursuant to the provisions of this
Article VI, and the amount of additional cash, or the Fair Market
Value of any Partnership asset (net of any liabilities assumed by the
Partnership and liabilities to which the asset is subject), contributed to
the
Partnership by such Partner or deemed contributed to the Partnership by such
Partner in accordance with Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(c).
(b) Debits
to Capital Account. The Capital Account of each Partner shall be
debited with the Partner’s allocable share of Losses, any individual items of
expenses and loss allocated to such Partner pursuant to the provisions of
this
Article VI, the amount of any cash distributed to such Partner and
the Fair Market Value of any Partnership asset (net of any liabilities assumed
by the Partner and liabilities to which the asset is subject) distributed
to
such Partner or deemed distributed to such Partner in accordance with
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(c).
(c) Capital
Account of Transferee. In the event that any Percentage Interest
of a Partner is transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
the
transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the
extent
it relates to the transferred Percentage Interest in such
Partner.
41
(d) Adjustments
of Book Value. In the event that the Book Value of any
Partnership asset is adjusted as described in the definition of “Book Value”,
the Capital Accounts of all Partners shall be adjusted in accordance with
Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) or Regulation
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), as applicable, to reflect such
adjustment.
(e) Compliance
with Regulations. The foregoing provisions and the other
provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts
are
intended to comply with Regulation Section 1.704-1(b) and shall be
interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such
Regulation. In the event that the General Partner shall determine
that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or
any
debits or credits thereto, are computed in order to comply with such Regulation,
the General Partner may make such modification; provided, however, that if
such
modification constitutes a Material Modification, it shall become effective
only
upon the consent of any Partner to whom such modification would constitute
a
Material Modification.
Section
6.2 Profits
and Losses.
(a) Allocation. For
each Partnership taxable year or portion thereof, Profit and Loss shall be
allocated (after all allocations pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof have been
made) in such a manner so as to cause the Partially Adjusted Capital Accounts
of
the Partners to equal, as nearly as possible, their respective Target
Accounts.
(b) Adjustments
to “Profits” and “Losses”. When used in this Agreement,
“Profits” and “Losses” shall mean, for each
fiscal year or other period, an amount equal to the Partnership’s taxable income
or loss for such year or period, determined in accordance with Code
Section 703(a) (for this purpose, all items of income, gain, loss or
deduction required to be stated separately pursuant to Code
Section 703(a)(1) shall be included in taxable income or loss), and
otherwise in accordance with the methods of accounting followed by the
Partnership for federal income tax purposes, with the following
adjustments:
(i) any
income of the Partnership that is exempt from federal income tax and not
otherwise taken into account in computing Profits or Losses shall be added
to
such taxable income or loss;
(ii)
any items that are specially allocated
pursuant to this Agreement shall not be taken into account in computing Profits
or Losses;
(iii)
any expenditure of the Partnership described
in Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code (or treated as such under Regulation
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i)) and not otherwise taken into account in
computing Profits or Losses pursuant to this Definition shall be deducted
from
such taxable income or loss;
(iv) any
depreciation, amortization and/or cost recovery deductions with respect
to any
asset shall be deemed to be equal to the Book Depreciation available with
respect to such asset;
42
(v) the
computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be made
without regard to any basis adjustment under Section 743 of the
Code;
(vi) in
the event the Book Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to
the
definition of Book Value, the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into
account as gain or loss from the disposition of such asset for purposes of
computing Profits or Losses; and
(vii) gain
or loss resulting from any disposition of assets with respect to which gain
or
loss is recognized for federal income tax purposes shall be computed by
reference to the Book Value of the asset disposed of, notwithstanding that
the
adjusted tax basis of such asset differs from its Book Value.
Section
6.3 Regulatory
Allocations.
(a) Minimum
Gain Chargeback. If there is a net decrease in Partnership
Minimum Gain during any fiscal year, each Partner shall be specially allocated
items of Partnership income and gain for such fiscal year (and, if necessary,
subsequent fiscal years) in an amount equal to such Partner’s share of the net
decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain, as determined under Regulations
Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations pursuant to the previous
sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to
be
allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so
allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections
1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3(a) is
intended to comply with the “minimum gain chargeback” requirements of
Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently
therewith.
(b) Chargeback
Attributable to Partner Nonrecourse Debt. If there is a net
decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any fiscal year
attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt, each Partner with a share of
Partner
Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt
at
the beginning of such year shall be specially allocated items of income and
gain
for such fiscal year (and, if necessary, for subsequent fiscal years) in
an
amount equal to such Partner’s share of the net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse
Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined
in
accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and
(5). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in
proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner
pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in
accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and
1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3(b) is intended to comply
with the “minimum gain chargeback” requirements of Regulations
Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently
therewith.
(c) Qualified
Income Offset. If any Partner unexpectedly receives any
adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) which results in or increases
an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for the Partner, such Partner shall be
allocated items of income and book gain in an amount and manner sufficient
to
eliminate such Adjusted Capital Account Deficit or increase therein as quickly
as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this
Section 6.3(c) shall be made if and only to the extent that such
Partner would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all
43
other
allocations provided in this Article VI have been tentatively made
as if this Section 6.3(c) were not in the Agreement. This
Section 6.3(c) is intended to constitute a “qualified income offset”
as provided by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be
interpreted consistently therewith.
(d) Partner
Nonrecourse Deductions. Items of Partnership loss, deduction or
Section 705(a)(2)(B) expenditures that are attributable to a Partner
Nonrecourse Debt (“Partner Nonrecourse Deductions”) shall be
allocated among the Partners who bear the Economic Risk of Loss for such
Partner
Nonrecourse Debt in the ratio in which they share Economic Risk of Loss for
such
Partner Nonrecourse Debt. This provision is to be interpreted in a
manner consistent with the requirements of Regulations
Section 1.704-2(b)(4) and (i)(1).
(e) Limitation
on Allocation of Net Loss. To the extent any allocation of Losses
or other items of loss or deduction would cause or increase an Adjusted Capital
Account Deficit as to any Partner, such allocation shall be reallocated among
the other Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests,
subject to the limitations hereof.
(f) Curative
Allocation. The allocations set forth in this
Section 6.3 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are
intended to comply with certain requirements of the applicable Regulations
promulgated under Code Section 704(b). Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Article VI, the Regulatory Allocations shall be
taken into account in allocating other operating Profits, Losses and other
items
of income, gain, loss and deduction to the Partners for Capital Account purposes
so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of Profits,
Losses and other items shall be equal to the amount that would have been
allocated to each Partner if the Regulatory Allocations had not
occurred.
Section
6.4 Allocation
of Tax Items for Tax Purposes.
(a) Generally. Subject
to Sections 1.704-1(b)(4)(i) and 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m) of the Regulations
and
except as otherwise provided in this Article VI, allocations of income,
gain, loss, deduction and credit for federal, state and local tax purposes
shall
be allocated to the Partners in the same manner and amounts as the book items
corresponding to such tax items are allocated for Capital Account
purposes.
(b) Recapture
Income. Notwithstanding Section 6.4(a) hereof, if
there is a gain on any sale, exchange or other disposition of Partnership
assets
and all or a portion of such gain is characterized as ordinary income by
virtue
of the recapture rules of Code Section 1245 or 1250, or under the
corresponding recapture rules of state or local income tax law, as the case
may
be, then, to the extent possible, such recapture income for United States
and
state and local tax purposes shall be allocated to the Partners in the ratio
that they were allocated Tax Depreciation previously taken and allowed with
respect to the Partnership assets being sold or otherwise disposed
of.
(c) Section 754
Adjustments. Notwithstanding Section 6.4(a) hereof,
any increase or decrease in the amount of any items of income, gain, loss,
deduction or credit for tax purposes attributable to an adjustment to the
basis
of Partnership assets made
44
pursuant
to a valid election or deemed election under Sections 732(d), 734, 743, and
754
of the Code, and any increase or decrease in the amount of any item of credit
or
tax preference attributable to any such adjustment, shall be allocated to
those
Partners entitled thereto under such law. Such items shall be
excluded in determining the Capital Accounts of the Partners, except as
otherwise provided by Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m) of the
Regulations.
(d) Nonrecourse
Deductions. Any “Nonrecourse Deductions” as defined in Treasury
Regulations Section 1.704-2(c) for any fiscal year or other period shall be
specially allocated as items of loss in the manner provided in Treasury
Regulations Section 1.704-2(j)(1)(ii). Depreciation deductions
shall be treated as Nonrecourse Deductions with respect to a property only
to
the extent that such deductions reduce the property’s tax basis below the amount
of the Nonrecourse Liability encumbering the property.
(e) Sharing
of Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities. For purposes of
Section 1.752-3(a)(3) of the Regulations, the excess Nonrecourse
Liabilities of the Partnership shall be allocated one hundred (100%) percent
to
LMLP. In the event it is determined that Inland would be allocated
less than its proportionate share of depreciation in any year as a result
of the
allocation of liabilities to LMLP, the Partners agree to reallocate the
liabilities in accordance with Percentage Interests.
(f) Section 704(c). Notwithstanding
Section 6.4 hereof, if the Partnership owns or acquires
Section 704(c) Property, or if the Tax Matters Partner makes an election
referred to in the definition of “Book Value” herein, then, solely for tax
purposes and not for Capital Account purposes, Tax Depreciation, and any
gain or
loss, attributable to such Section 704(c) Property shall be allocated
between or among the Partners in a manner that takes into account the variation
between such Book Value and such adjusted tax basis, using the traditional
method of allocation, in accordance with the principles of Code
Section 704(c) and the Regulations promulgated thereunder and such method
set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b).
Section
6.5
Tax Matters Partner. The General Partner is
hereby designated as the “tax matters partner” for the Partnership as such term
is defined in Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (the “Tax Matters
Partner”), and all federal, state and local tax audits and litigation
shall be conducted under the direction of the General Partner. All
expenses incurred with respect to any tax matter which does or may affect
the
Partnership, including but not limited to expenses incurred in connection
with
Partnership level administrative or judicial tax proceedings, shall be paid
out
of Partnership assets, whether or not included in an Annual Plan. The
Tax Matters Partner shall, promptly upon receipt thereof, forward to each
Partner a copy of any correspondence relating to the Partnership received
from
the Internal Revenue Service or any other tax authority which relates to
matters
that are of material importance to the Partnership and/or the
Partners. The Tax Matters Partner shall promptly advise each Partner
in writing of the substance of any material conversation held with any
representative of the Internal Revenue Service which relates to an audit
or
administrative proceeding relating to a tax return of the
Partnership.
45
Section
6.6
Adjustments.
(a) Generally. Except
as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all items of Partnership income,
gain,
loss and deduction and any other allocations not otherwise provided for shall
be
divided among the Partners in the same proportions as they share Profits
and
Losses, as the case may be, for the year.
(b) Upon
Transfer or Change in Percentage Interest. If any
Percentage Interest is transferred in any fiscal year in accordance with
this
Agreement, or if a Partner’s Percentage Interest changes during any fiscal year,
all Profits and Losses attributable to such Percentage Interest for such
fiscal
year shall be divided and allocated in accordance with an interim closing
of the
books as of the date of a transfer or change.
(c) Amendments
to this Article VI. The General Partner is specifically
authorized by each Partner, upon the advice of the accountants or legal counsel
for the Partnership, to amend this Article VI to comply with any
Regulations with respect to the distributions and allocations of the Partnership
and any such amendment shall become effective; provided, however, that if
such amendment constitutes a Material Modification for any Partner, then
such
amendment shall become effective only upon the express written consent of
such
Partner.

SPECIAL PARTNER RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
SPECIAL PARTNER RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
Section
11.1 Right
of First Offer.
54
(a) At
any time after the Rights Trigger Date, if either Inland or LMLP (except
if the
Rights Trigger Date occurs because of an Event of Default by an LMLP Partner)
wishes to sell their Percentage Interest or cause the Partnership to sell
any
Qualified Asset (for the purposes of this section, such selling Partner,
the
“ROFO Offering Partner”), the ROFO Offering Partner shall
deliver a written notice (a “ROFO Notice”) to the Other Partner
(the “ROFO Responding Partner)”) specifying to the ROFO
Responding Partner in writing the terms and conditions (the “ROFO
Terms”) and the price (the “ROFOOffer
Price”) at which the ROFO Offering Partner would be willing to sell
their entire Percentage Interest or the ROFO Offering Partner would be willing
to permit the Partnership to sell any of the Qualifying Assets, as the case
may
be, to the ROFO Responding Partner. Any ROFO Notice shall reference
the invocation of this Section 11.1 and shall constitute an irrevocable
offer from the ROFO Offering Partner to the ROFO Responding Partner to sell
its
entire Percentage Interest or permit the sale by the Partnership of the stated
Qualifying Assets, as the case may be, at the ROFO Offer Price. If the ROFO
Responding Partner does not elect to buy the ROFO Offering Partner’s entire
Percentage Interest or the stated Qualifying Assets, as the case may be,
within
forty-five (45) days following receipt of the ROFO Notice by delivering an
election notice to the ROFO Offering Partner (the “ROFO Response
Notice”), subject to Sections 11.1(b) and (c), the ROFO
Offering Partner shall be permitted to sell their entire Percentage Interest
or
the stated Qualifying Assets on behalf of the Partnership, as the case may
be,
to a bona fide third party pursuant to an arm’s length transaction on terms not
more favorable to such bona fide third party than the ROFO Terms and for
an
amount equal to or greater than the ROFO Offer Price (the “Required
Third Party Price and Terms”). In the event the ROFO
Responding Partner fails to timely deliver a ROFO Response Notice, subject
to
Sections 11.1(b) and (c), the ROFO Offering Partner shall be
permitted to sell its entire Percentage Interest or any of the Qualifying
Assets
on behalf of the Partnership, as the case may be, for the Required Third
Party
Price and Terms.
(b) In
the event the ROFO Offering Partner is permitted to sell its entire Percentage
Interest or the stated Qualifying Assets on behalf of the Partnership, as
the
case may be, pursuant to Section 11.1(a) above, the ROFO Offering Partner
shall have the right for a period of six (6) months after the date of the
ROFO
Notice (the “Third Party Sale Period”) to sell its entire
Percentage Interest or the stated Qualifying Assets on behalf of the
Partnership, as the case may be, to a bona fide third party for and on the
Required Third Party Price and Terms. In the event the ROFO Offering Partner
fails to consummate the sale of its entire Percentage Interest or the stated
Qualifying Assets on behalf of the Partnership, as the case may be, for the
Required Third Party Price prior to the expiration of the Third Party Sale
Period, the ROFO Offering Partner’s right to sell its entire Percentage Interest
or the stated Qualifying Assets on behalf of the Partnership, as the case
may
be, to a bona fide third party will be revoked until such time as the ROFO
Offering Partner has repeated the process set forth in Section 11.1(a)
and provided the ROFO Responding Partner with the right to make its election
pursuant to Section 11.1(a) above.
(c) Any
exercise of the provisions of this Section 11.1 is also subject to the
provisions of Section 11.3 below.
55
Section
11.2 Buy/Sell.
(a) Generally. After
the Rights Trigger Date, Inland or LMLP (except if the Rights Trigger Date
occurs because of an Event of Default by an LMLP Partner), as specified therein
(the “Buy/Sell Offering Partner”), may provide the Other
Partner (the “Buy/Sell Responding Partner”) with notice (the
“Buy/Sell Notice”) of a price (the “Buy/Sell Offer
Price”) that the Buy/Sell Offering Partner, or its designated
Affiliate(s), is willing to pay to purchase (A) those Qualified Assets
which the Buy/Sell Offering Partner, or its designated Affiliate(s), desire
to
purchase if the Buy/Sell Offering Partner, or its designated Affiliate(s),
desire to purchase less than all of the Qualified Assets from the Partnership,
or (B) all of the Qualified Assets if the Buy/Sell Offering Partner, or its
designated Affiliate(s), desire to purchase all of the Qualified Assets
(provided that an offer to purchase all of the Qualified Assets shall be
implemented as a purchase by the Buy/Sell Offering Partner, or its designated
Affiliate(s), of the Percentage Interests of the Buy/Sell Responding Partner)
(such Qualified Assets or such Percentage Interests, as the case may be,
the
“Buy/Sell Asset”). The Buy/Sell Notice shall
include, as an attachment thereto, a bona fide proposed purchase and sale
agreement on terms reasonably customary for the sale of real estate assets
or
for the sale of partnership interests in a limited partnership that owns
primarily real estate assets (the “Offered
Agreement”). Upon receipt of the Buy/Sell Notice, the
Buy/Sell Responding Partner shall have forty-five (45) days to provide to
the
Buy/Sell Offering Partner a notice (the “Buy/Sell Response
Notice”) specifying the Buy/Sell Responding Partner’s election either,
(i) if the Buy/Sell Asset comprises less than all of the Qualified Assets,
to cause the Partnership to sell the Buy/Sell Asset to the Buy/Sell Offering
Partner, or its designated Affiliate(s), at the Buy/Sell Offer Price pursuant
to
the Offered Agreement or (y) to purchase (or have a designated Affiliate(s)
purchase) the Buy/Sell Asset from the Partnership for a purchase price equal
to
the Buy/Sell Offer Price and on substantially the same terms and conditions
as
provided in the Offered Agreement, or, (ii) if the Buy/Sell Asset comprises
all of the Qualified Assets, purchase the Percentage Interest of the Buy/Sell
Offering Partner or sell its Percentage Interest to the Buy/Sell Offering
Partner, or its designated Affiliate(s), for a purchase price equal to the
amount the Buy/Sell Responding Partner would receive under
Section 9.2 hereof if the Partnership assets were sold at the
Buy/Sell Offer Price and the Partnership were liquidated and dissolved (the
“Buy/Sell Responding Interest Price”) and on substantially the
same terms and conditions as provided in the Offered Agreement. Any
Buy/Sell Notice made with respect to all of the Qualified Assets in connection
with an Event of Default shall supersede and render of no further effect
any
Buy/Sell Notice or ROFO Notice (x) made with respect to less than all of
the Qualified Assets and (y) to which no Buy/Sell Response Notice or ROFO
Response Notice, as the case may be, has been provided to the Buy/Sell Offering
Partner or ROFO Offering Partner, as the case may be.
(b) Buy/Sell
Responding Partner’s Election to Purchase. If the Responding
Partner timely delivers a Buy/Sell Response Notice that specifies the Buy/Sell
Responding Partner’s election to purchase the Buy/Sell Asset, as described in
Section 11.2(a) above, then the Buy/Sell Responding Partner shall
have up to seventy-five (75) days from the date of the delivery of the Buy/Sell
Response Notice to close the purchase of the Buy/Sell Asset on substantially
the
same terms and conditions as contained in the Offered Agreement.
(c) Buy/Sell
Responding Partner’s Election not to Purchase. If the Buy/Sell
Responding Partner timely delivers a Buy/Sell Response Notice that specifies
the
56
Buy/Sell
Responding Partner’s election not to purchase the Buy/Sell Asset, or if the
Buy/Sell Responding Partner fails to deliver a timely Buy/Sell Response Notice,
then (i) if the Buy/Sell Asset comprises less than all of the Qualified
Assets, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to proceed to close
the
acquisition of the Buy/Sell Asset at the Buy/Sell Offer Price in accordance
with
the terms and conditions of the Offered Agreement, provided, however,
that such closing must take place within the seventy-five (75) day period
beginning on the date of delivery of the Buy/Sell Response Notice, or,
(ii) if the Buy/Sell Asset comprises all of the Qualified Assets, the
Buy/Sell Offering Partner shall purchase the Percentage Interests of the
Buy/Sell Responding Partner within the seventy-five (75) day period described
in
clause (i) above, for the Buy/Sell Responding Interest Price. In
determining the amount of the Buy/Sell Responding Interest Price, it will
be
assumed that no reserves will be required pursuant to Section 9.2
hereof.
Section
11.3 Provisions
Applicable to Right of First Offer and Buy/Sell
(a) The
Purchasing Partner shall deliver to a mutually acceptable escrow agent a
non-refundable cash deposit within forty-five (45) days of the Responding
Partner’s actual or deemed notice in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) five

Day, the next succeeding Business Day) (the “Closing Date”), at
the principal place of business of the Partnership, or at such other time
and
place as may be mutually agreed upon by the Purchasing Partner and the Selling
Partner, and (unless otherwise agreed to by the Purchasing Partner and the
Selling Partner) shall be on a cash basis. At such Closing: (i) the
Selling Partner shall convey all of its Percentage Interest in the Partnership,
and, if applicable, all of their debt claims against the Partnership, and
warrant that such interests and claims are free of all adverse claims and
encumbrances (unless otherwise agreed upon by the Purchasing Partner and
the
Selling Partner); (ii) the Purchasing Partner shall pay the Selling Partner
the
Offer Price, less a credit for the Deposit (which shall be delivered by the
escrow agent to the Selling Partner and the amount thereof credited against
the

closing costs, in cash; and (iii) the Selling Partner, the Purchasing Partner
and the Partnership shall execute and deliver such other documents as may
be

(c) Should
the Purchasing Partner fail to close the transactions elected pursuant to

Selling Partner, as its exclusive remedies in the circumstances, (i) shall
be
entitled to receive from the escrow agent, as liquidated damages for such
failure, the Deposit deposited pursuant to Section 11.3(b) of this
Agreement, (ii) shall have the right for a period of twelve (12) months after
the scheduled Closing Date (the “Default Sale Period”) to
acquire the Purchasing Partner’s Percentage Interest or interest in the stated

57
Offer
Price, and (iii) the Purchasing Partner’s rights pursuant to Section 11.1
and 11.2 hereof shall be suspended for a period of twelve (12) months
after the scheduled Closing Date.
(d) In
connection with a transfer pursuant to Sections 11.1 or 11.2, the
Purchasing Partner may designate an Affiliate or Affiliates to acquire the
Selling Partner’s Percentage Interests or interests in the stated Qualified
Assets, as the case may be, in which event such Affiliate(s) shall acquire
such
Percentage Interest or interests in the stated Qualified Assets, as the case
may
be, but no such designation or acquisition shall relieve the Purchasing Partner
(as determined without regard to this Section 11.3(e)) from any obligation
under
this Article XI.
(e) Each
of Inland and LMLP shall have the right to exercise either the Right of First
Offer pursuant to Section 11.1 above or the Buy/Sell pursuant to
Section 11.2 above (such Partner being the “Initiating
Partner”); provided, however, that upon any Initiating Partner’s
exercise of either of these provisions, the Other Partner may not again trigger
the provisions of either Section 11.1 or 11.2 until the
termination of all procedures and timeframes pursuant to the Initiating
Partner’s chosen provision.
(f) As
a condition to any transfer by either Inland or LMLP of its Percentage Interest
or the stated Qualified Assets by the Partnership, as the case may be, pursuant
to either Section 11.1 or Section 11.2 of this Agreement, the
Selling Partner must be released at the closing from any indemnities, guaranties
or other credit enhancements granted by such Selling Partner on behalf of
the
Partnership to any third party relating to the interest being
transferred.
(g) As
a condition to any transfer by Inland of its Percentage Interest or the stated
Qualified Assets by the Partnership, as the case may be, pursuant to either
Section 11.1 or Section 11.2 of this Agreement, any Preferred
Equity relating to a Qualified Assumed Asset that is being, directly or
indirectly, transferred shall be redeemed as if such Qualified Assumed was
sold
and the proceeds were distributed in accordance with Section 7.2(a)(ii)
hereof.
(h) If

of
the other Partner’s rights under this Article XI, the losing Partner

default by any other Partner in the performance by the other Partner of its
obligations hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver
to
or of any other breach or default in the performance by such other Partner
of
the same or any other obligations of such other Partner
hereunder. Failure on the part of any Partner to complain of any act
or failure to act of any of the other Partners or to declare any of the other
Partners in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall
not
constitute a waiver by such Partner of its rights hereunder. No
custom, practice or course of dealings arising among the Partners in the
administration hereof shall be construed as a waiver or diminution of the
right
of any Partner to insist upon the strict performance by any other Partner
of the
terms, covenants, agreements and conditions herein contained.
Section
12.5 Validity. If
any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person
or
circumstance shall be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder
of
this Agreement and the application of such provisions to other Persons or
circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the
greatest extent permitted by law.
Section
12.6 Terminology;
Captions. All personal pronouns used in this Agreement,
whether used in the masculine, feminine, or neuter gender, shall include
all
other genders; the singular shall include the plural, and vice versa and
shall
refer solely to the parties signatory hereto except where otherwise specifically
provided. Titles of Articles, Sections, Subsections, Schedules and
Exhibits are for convenience only, and neither limit nor amplify the provisions
of the Agreement itself, and all references herein to Articles, Sections,
Subsections, Schedules and Exhibits shall refer to the corresponding Articles,
Sections, Subsections, Schedules and Exhibits of this Agreement unless specific
reference is made to such Articles, Sections, Subsections, Schedules and
Exhibits of another document or instrument. Any
60
use
of
the word “including” herein shall, unless the context otherwise requires, be
deemed to mean “including without limitation”.
Section
12.7 Remedies
Not Exclusive. Except as otherwise provided herein, the
rights and remedies of the Partnership and of the Partners hereunder shall
not
be mutually exclusive, i.e., the exercise of one or more of the provisions
hereof shall not preclude the exercise of any other provisions
hereof. Each of the Partners confirms that damages at law may be an
inadequate remedy for a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement and
agrees
that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision hereof,
the
respective rights and obligations hereunder shall be enforceable by specific
performance, injunction or other equitable remedy but nothing herein contained
is intended to, nor shall it, limit or affect any rights or rights at law
or by
statute or otherwise of any party aggrieved as against the other for breach
or
threatened breach of any provision hereof, it being the intention by this
section to make clear the agreement of the Partners that the respective
rights and obligations of the Partners hereunder shall be enforceable in
equity
as well as at law or otherwise.
Section

other action by a Partner shall be binding upon such Partner unless the same
is
in writing and executed on behalf of such Partner by a duly authorized
representative of such Partner.
Section
12.9 Further
Assurances. Each of the Partners shall hereafter execute
and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts and things
as may
be required or useful to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement
and
as are not inconsistent with the terms hereof.
Section
12.10 Liability
of the Limited Partners. Each Limited Partner’s exposure
to liabilities hereunder is limited to its interest in the
Partnership. No Limited Partner shall be personally liable for the
expenses, liabilities, debts, or obligations of the Partnership.
Section
12.11 Binding
Effect. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
every covenant, term, and provision of this Agreement shall be binding upon
and
inure to the benefit of the Partners and their respective successors,
transferees, and assigns.
Section
12.12 Amendments. Except
as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement may not be amended
without the written consent of all the Partners.
Section
12.13 Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different
parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and
delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together
shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature and acknowledgment
pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to
a
single counterpart so that all signature and acknowledgement pages are
physically attached to the same document. This Agreement shall become
effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties
hereto and delivery to each of the Partners of a fully executed original
counterpart of this Agreement.
61
Section
12.14 Waiver
of Partition. Each of the Partners hereby irrevocably
waives any and all rights (if any) that it may have to maintain any action
for
partition of any of the Qualified Assets to be acquired.
Section

Section 5.4 hereof, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied,
is intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any Person, other than
the
Partners and, subject to the restrictions on assignment contained herein,
their
respective successors and assigns.
Section
12.16 Expenses.
Each party hereto shall pay all of its own legal and accounting fees and
expenses incurred in connection with the formation of the Partnership and
the
preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and the agreements ancillary

Section

WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT
ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL
BY
JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN CONNECTION WITH OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY MATTER CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
Section
12.19 REIT
Provisions.
(a) The
General Partner and the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to
cause the Partnership to operate as if it were subject to the real estate
investment trust (“REIT”) rules of the Code described below, except as otherwise
permitted by prior written consent of the Partners:
(i) the
"75 percent gross income test" set forth in Section 856(c)(3) of the Code
and
the "95 percent
gross income test" set forth in Section 856(c)(2) of the Code; and
(ii)
the gross assets tests set forth in Section 856(c) of the Code: (A) the "75
percent asset test" set forth
in
Section 856(c)(4)(A) of the Code, (B) the "25
62
percent
asset test" set
forth in Section 856(c)(4)(B)(i) of the Code, (C) the "20 percent
value
limitation" set forth in Section 856(c)(4)(B)(ii) of the Code, (D) the "5
percent value limitation" set forth in Section 856(c)(4)(B)(iii)(I) of the
Code
and (E) the "10 percent vote and value limitations" set forth in Sections
856(c)(4)(B)(iii)(II) and (III) of the Code.
For
purposes of the foregoing tests, any ”mezzanine” loans secured by an equity
interest in an entity and any interest therefrom shall not be treated as
satisfying such tests unless such loans and interest are in substantial
compliance with the requirements of Revenue Procedure 2003-65, except as
otherwise permitted by prior written consent of the Partners.
(b) The
General Partner and the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to
cause the Partnership not to dispose of any real property in a transaction
that
would be treated as a "prohibited transaction" within the meaning of Section
857(b)(6)(B)(iii) of the Code, unless (i) the transaction qualifies for the
safe
harbor, set forth in Section 857(b)(6)(C) of the Code, applied to the
Partnership as if the Partnership were subject to Section 857(b)(6), taking
into
account any other “safe harbor” transactions engaged in by the respective
Partner in determining whether seven sales has occurred during the year,
including any such transactions engaged in by a joint venture, partnership
or
limited liability company in which such Partner invests (which information
such
Partner will provide to the General Partner and Partnership upon written
request), (ii) the transaction is required under this Agreement, (iii) the
property is disposed of in connection with or in lieu of foreclosure, (iv)
the
property is transferred in a tax free exchange under the Code, (v) the Partners
consent or (vi) the Executive Committee approves such transaction by a
Supermajority Vote.
(c) The
General Partner and the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to
cause the Partnership to make distributions to the Partners in compliance
with
the “90% distribution requirement” of Section 857(a)(1) of the Code, provided
that the General Partner and the Partnership shall not be in violation of
this Section 12.19(c) if:
(i)
the Partnership makes the distributions required by Articles 7 and 9 of this
Agreement, and
(ii)
if the distributions required by Articles 7 and 9 of this Agreement are
insufficient to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement, the General Partner
and Partnership shall
(A)
notify the Partners of the insufficiency,
(B) (B)
notify the Partners of whether the Partnership is fully leveraged to the
extent
permitted by the debt ratio set forth in Section 3.8(a) of the Agreement
(75%),
and
(C) (C)
(1) if the Partnership’s debt ratio is below the permitted threshold (75%), the
General Partner shall not be required to incur debt to make additional
distributions unless a Partner requests it, in which case the General Partner
and the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
Partnership to incur additional debt on commercially reasonable terms in
order
to make such additional distributions to the requesting Partner and (2) if
the
Partnership’s debt ratio is at the maximum permitted
63
(75%),
the General Partner shall not be required to incur debt to make additional
distributions unless both LMLP and Inland consent, in which case the General
Partner and the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause
the Partnership to incur additional debt on commercially reasonable terms
in
order to make such additional distributions to both Partners.
If
an
amount otherwise available for distribution pursuant to Article 7 of the
Agreement is used to acquire an Approved Qualified Asset or fund a capital
expenditure approved by a Supermajority Vote of the Executive Committee or
consented to by the distributee Partner, such Partner’s share of such
distribution shall be treated as distributed to the Partner for purposes
of
satisfying this Section 12.19(c).
(d) Without
limiting the foregoing, the General Partner and the Partnership shall take
such
other reasonable steps as shall be requested in writing in good faith by
each
Partner and its ultimate Parent entity (Inland Real Estate Trust, Inc. in
the
case of Inland and Lexington Realty Trust in the case of LMLP), which the
requesting Partner and Parent believe in good faith is necessary in order
for
the Parent (and, in the case of LMLP, LMLP) to continue to qualify as a REIT
(determined assuming that, without regard to its investment in the Partnership,
such ultimate Parent entity (or LMLP) otherwise would qualify as a REIT)
and no
other reasonable steps or action could be taken by the requesting Partner
or
Parent (in lieu of the Partnership taking any requested steps) to enable
the
Parent to so qualify.
(e) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the General
Partner or Partnership have any liability to a Partner or Affiliate with
respect
to its failure to qualify as a REIT so long as the General Partner and
Partnership have acted in good faith and used commercially reasonable efforts
to
satisfy the obligations set forth in this Section 12.19.

INSURANCE
REQUIREMENTS
EXHIBIT
C
INSURANCE
REQUIREMENTS
The
Partnership shall, at a minimum, obtain and maintain, and/or cause the SP
Subsidiaries to obtain and maintain, without interruption, the insurance
coverages stipulated hereunder for the benefit of the Partnership and each
Partner thereof, but only to the extent of such party’s interest in each
Qualified Asset:
(a) Property
and Related Insurance.
(i) Qualified
Assets. At all times following commencement of construction of
any above-ground improvements thereon, each Qualified Asset shall be insured
on
a 100% Full Replacement Cost basis. Full Replacement Cost is defined
as the cost of replacing the improvements, together with appurtenances and
betterments in compliance with prevailing building codes, without deduction
for
physical depreciation thereof, at the time of replacement of the Qualified
Asset, following a loss. The value so determined shall be binding and
conclusive. The policy shall further provide that, in the event of a
total or constructive total loss, the Partnership or SP Subsidiary shall
not be
unreasonably restricted from applying the proceeds to the re-building of
the
improvements at such other location as the Partnership shall
elect. At all times following commencement of construction of any
vertical improvements thereon, Qualified Assets shall be insured against
physical loss or damage by fire, lightning and other risks and supplementary
perils from time to time included under Special Form policies including,
vandalism and malicious mischief (with agreed amount endorsements), windstorm,
earthquake, and certified and non-certified acts of terrorism. The
policy shall be endorsed to provide coverage for demolition and increased
cost
of construction to conform to local ordinance, and will include “extra expense”
and “expediting expense” coverage.
(ii) Rent
Loss/Business Interruption. The Partnership shall maintain,
after substantial completion of any above-ground improvements, rent
loss/business interruption insurance sufficient to prevent the Partnership
or
the SP Subsidiary from being a coinsurer under the terms of the policy, and
in
an amount equal to twelve months’ projected gross income from the Qualified
Asset. The policy must contain an extended period of indemnity
endorsement which provides that after the loss to the Improvements and personal
property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured
until
the earlier of such time that such income returns to the same level it was
prior
to the loss or the expiration of six (6) months from the date of
restoration. This requirement shall apply in the event the
Partnership, by upon approval of the Executive Committee by a Supermajority
vote,, has elected to offer all or any portion of the Qualified Asset for
rent
pursuant to leases or other occupancy agreements.
(iii) Boiler
and Machinery. The Partnership or the SP Subsidiary shall
maintain, after substantial completion of any above-ground improvements,
boiler
and machinery insurance covering physical damage to the Qualified Asset and
to
the major components of any central heating, air conditioning or ventilation
systems, and such other equipment as is usual for similar properties in the
area. The policy shall include coverage for business interruption,
including expediting and extra expense, in an amount not less than
$500,000. Unless the insurance required in subsections (a) (i), (iii)
and (iv) is provided on the same policy or by the same insurance carrier,
a
Joint Loss Agreement between separate primary policies will be
required.
Schedule
4.7-1
(iv) Builder’s
Risk. During the period of any construction, repair, renovation,
restoration or replacement of the improvements or the Qualified Asset, the
Partnership shall obtain and maintain or cause to be obtained and maintained
a
completed value “All Risk” Builder’s Risk policy in an amount equal to one
hundred percent (100%) of the replacement cost of the Qualified
Asset. Coverage should include, but not be limited to, collapse, soft
costs, transit, earthquake, flood, windstorm, terrorism, off-site storage,
expediting expenses, demolition and increased cost of construction (for
renovation and/or additions to existing structures), water damage, permission
for partial occupancy, and automatic reinstatement. The policy is to
be in an amount not less than the total value of the Qualified Asset (less
the
value of such uninsurable items as land, site preparation, grading, paving,
parking lots). The coverage may be provided as an extension to the
property policy in force if the requirements herein are satisfied, subject
to
approval by the Partners of the Partnership. The Partnership shall
cause the contracts with any contractors to provide that (i) such contractor
will be responsible for claims arising out of such contractor’s negligence, and
(ii) except to the extent that such contractor’s tools and equipment will become
part of the job, such tools and equipment shall not be considered insurable
items.
(v) Flood. If
the Qualified Asset is located in a federally designated flood zone A or
V and
flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance
Act
of 1968, flood insurance is required in an amount equal to maximum coverage
available, replacement cost, or such amount as a mortgage lender may
require.
(vi) Earthquake. If
a Qualified Asset is in an area identified by any governmental, engineering
or
any hazard underwriting agencies as being subject to the peril of earthquake,
and the project is in a high-risk seismic area denoted as Zones 3 and 4 under
the Uniform Building Code (UBC), appropriate earthquake insurance coverage
as
required by lender is required.
(b) Liability.
(i) The
Partnership and the SP Subsidiaries shall obtain and maintain Commercial
General
Liability insurance on the broadest forms available for similar risks, written
on an “occurrence policy form,” against all claims for bodily injury, disease or
death, property damage, personal injury, certified and non-certified acts
of
terrorism products and completed operations, and contractual liability (deleting
any exclusion restricting coverage for contractual obligations for claims
occurring on, in or about the Qualified Asset and adjoining premises, and
for
explosion, collapse, and underground property damage) in an amount of not
less
than $5,000,000 arising out of any one occurrence; provided, however that
coverage for explosion, collapse, and underground property damage shall not
be
required until such time as any excavation at the Qualified Asset commences,
and
may be in the form of coverage carried by the applicable
contractor. Such insurance may be provided under a primary and an
umbrella policy or policies, provided that such umbrella policy or policies
shall not exclude “real estate activities.” If liability coverage for
any Qualified Asset procured by the contractor is included under any blanket
policy written on an aggregate form, then the annual aggregate limit of
insurance must apply per location. The policy shall be endorsed to
include the SP Subsidiary, the Partnership, the lender and each Partner thereof
as an additional insured subject to the benefits stipulated under subsection
(i)(iv) hereof. Such insurance will be endorsed as primary and non-contributory
with any other insurance available to the SP Subsidiary, the Partnership,
the
lender and each Partner.
(ii) During
any period of construction, repair, restoration, renovation or replacement
of
the Qualified Asset, the Partnership shall cause the general contractor to
maintain commercial liability insurance (or the Partnership’s or SP Subsidiary’s
and Contractor’s protective liability insurance in the name of the Partnership
or SP Subsidiary and each Partner thereof), with extension for, but not limited
to, products/completed operations, with limits of not less than $10,000,000
per
occurrence. Completed Operations insurance shall remain in effect for
the length of time statutorily required in the state in which
Schedule
4.7-2
the
construction occurs. This coverage shall be maintained as was agreed to at
the
time of substantial completion of the Qualified Asset and shall be for the
same
limits as required above. The Partnership shall also cause the general
contractor to require its subcontractors of any tier to provide confirmation
of
commercial liability coverage (including products/completed operations),
and
such insurance shall be on a primary and non-contributory basis with a limit
of
not less than $1,000,000 per Qualified Asset. The general contractors
and the subcontractors shall have the Partnership and the SP Subsidiary included
on the insurance required herein as additional insureds.
(c) Worker’s
Compensation. The Partnership and the SP Subsidiaries will
maintain Worker’s Compensation as statutorily required and Employer’s
Liability insurance, or their equivalent, for all of their respective employees,
and will cause any of their agents, contractors and subcontractors of any
tier
to maintain similar insurance for all their respective employees, to the
fullest
extent required under the laws of the jurisdiction in which a Qualified Asset
is
located.
(d) Errors
and Omission. The Partnership will cause any professional
consultants, including, but not limited to, architects and engineers, to
maintain coverage in limits of not less than $1,000,000.
(e) Crime. The
Partnership will maintain crime insurance in an amount of not less than
$1,000,000 for the benefit of the Partnership and each Partner thereof against
loss caused by infidelity of its officers, agents, servants and employees;
and
against robbery or burglary both on and off premises.
(f) Other
Insurance. In addition to the above, the Partnership and the SP
Subsidiaries shall maintain all insurance, surety and fidelity bonds in amounts
and for such periods that are deemed to be prudent, or are customarily
maintained by persons or entities operating properties of like kind,
construction and occupancy in the locality of each Qualified
Asset. Compliance with insurance requirements will not in itself be
construed to be a limitation of the Partnership’s or the SP Subsidiaries’
liability.
(g) All
Insurance. All insurance required herein will be primary and not
excess over, contributory or participating with any other insurance carried
by
individual Partners of the Partnership or their respective affiliates or
agents.
(h) Other
Requirements With Respect to Insurance. The following provisions
shall apply with respect to all insurance coverage required above:
(i) Insurance
Companies: All insurance required herein shall be issued by insurance
companies of recognized good standing, with a rating of at least A-VII in
Best’s
Key Rating Guide, except for loans in excess of $35,000,000 where required
by
lender and in in such case a rating of at lease AVII in Best’s Key Rating Guide,
and must be licensed to do business in the state in which the Qualified Asset
is
located or must otherwise be acceptable to the Partnership. Insurance
ratings are subject to the approval of mortgagee. Coverage under blanket
policies may be extended by endorsements provided the insurers meet the
requirements stipulated herein. Each policy shall not have more than
a $25,000 deductible for any occurrence, except for mandatory deductibles
where
required under local regulations, or when required by insurers for specific
catastrophic perils, or with respect to flood insurance pursuant to Section
(a)(v) which deductible shall not exceed $250,000 for any occurrence. An
allowance for deductibles in excess of $25,000 on all-risk policies will
be
allowed upon the approval of mortgagee, but in any event cannot exceed
$100,000.
(ii) Evidence
of Insurance: The Partnership or the SP Subsidiaries shall obtain,
before the expiration date of each such policy, original policies (or renewals
or extensions of the insurance afforded thereby) or certified duplicates
thereof, or binders evidencing such insurance, or
Schedule
4.7-3
endorsements,
or certificates thereof. Evidence of Property insurance shall be on
XXXXX 28 forms acceptable to lenders and naming lender as mortgagee and loss
payee. Certificates of General Liability shall be on XXXXX 25 forms
and shall name lender as additional insured.
(iii) Insurance
(Cut-Through Endorsement). Except to the extent prohibited by
applicable law, insurance placed with a non-admitted insurer or excess and
surplus lines insurer will (upon written request of the Partners) require
a
“cut-through” endorsement for reinsurance purposes to allow for recovery
directly from a reinsurer in the event of the primary insurer’s insolvency or
cessation of insurance operations. This will be addressed on a case by case
basis, dependent on the insurance carriers involved.
(iv) Cancellation: The
Partnership shall immediately notify each Partner of the Partnership of any
cancellation of, non-renewal, or such material change as may adversely affect
any insurance policy or coverage in force. Each policy shall contain
a provision obligating the insurer to send at least thirty (30) days’ prior
written notice to any party included as an additional insured or loss payee
notifying them of the intent to cancel or make such change, and that any
loss
otherwise payable to them thereunder shall be paid notwithstanding any act
or
negligence on their part or that of the Partnership which might, absent such
provision, result in a forfeiture of all or part of such insurance
payment.
(v) Separate
Insurance: Without the prior written consent of all Partners of the
Partnership, neither the Partnership not any SP Subsidiary shall purchase
separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss,
with
the insurance required hereunder.
(vi) Payment
of Premium. The Partnership or the applicable SP Subsidiary shall be
solely responsible for, and promptly pay when due, any and all premiums on
all
such insurance.
