(6) (A) The Debentures may be redeemed at any time at the option
of the Issuer, in whole, or from time to time in part, at a redemption
price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of the Debentures (or
portion thereof) being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the
redemption date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount (as defined below), if
any, with respect to such Debentures (or portion thereof) (the
"Redemption Price").
If notice has been given as provided in the Indenture and funds
for the redemption of any Debentures (or any portion thereof) called for
redemption shall have been made available on the redemption date
referred to in such notice, such Debentures (or any portion thereof)
will cease to bear interest on the date fixed for such redemption

Notice of any optional redemption of any Debentures (or any
portion thereof) will be given to Holders at their addresses, as shown
in the security register for the Debentures, not more than 60 nor less
than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. The notice of
redemption will specify, among other items, the Redemption Price and the
principal amount of the Debentures held by such Holder to be redeemed.
On the third Business Day preceding the date notice of redemption is
given, the Company will notify the Trustee of the Redemption Price and
the Trustee may rely and shall be
-2-

fully protected in acting upon the determination of the Company as to
such Redemption Price.
The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing at least 45 days
prior to giving notice of redemption (or such shorter period as is
satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole discretion) of the aggregate
principal amount of Debentures to be redeemed and their redemption date.
If less than all the Debentures are to be redeemed at the option of the
Issuer, the Trustee shall select by lot, the Debentures to be redeemed
in whole or in part.
In the event of redemption of the Debentures in part only, a new
Debenture for the amount of the unredeemed portion thereof shall be
issued in the name of the Holder thereto, upon cancellation thereof.
(B) As used herein:
"Make-Whole Amount" means, in connection with any optional
redemption or accelerated payment of any Debentures, the excess, if any,
of (i) the aggregate present value as of the date of such redemption or
accelerated payment of each dollar of principal being redeemed or paid
and the amount of interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of
redemption or accelerated payment) that would have been payable in
respect of each such dollar if such redemption or accelerated payment
had not been made, determined by discounting, on a semi-annual basis,
such principal and interest at the Reinvestment Rate (determined on the
third Business Day preceding the date such notice of redemption is given
or declaration of acceleration is made) from the respective dates on
which such principal and interest would have been payable if such
redemption or accelerated payment had not been made, over (ii) the
aggregate principal amount of the Debentures being redeemed or paid.
"Reinvestment Rate" means 0.25% plus the arithmetic mean of the
yields under the respective heading "Week Ending" published in the most
recent Statistical Release under the caption "Treasury Constant
Maturities" for the maturity (rounded to the nearest month)
corresponding to the remaining life to maturity, as of the payment date
of the principal being redeemed or paid. If no maturity exactly
corresponds to such maturity, yields for the two published maturities
most closely corresponding to such maturity shall be calculated pursuant
to the immediately preceding sentence and the Reinvestment Rate shall be
interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis,
rounding in each of such relevant periods to the nearest month. For the
purpose of calculating the Reinvestment Rate, the most recent
Statistical Release published prior to the date of determination of the
Make-Whole Amount shall be used.
"Statistical Release" means the statistical release designated
"H.15(519)" or any successor publication which is published weekly by
the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively
traded United States government securities adjusted to constant
maturities, or, if such statistical release is not published at the time
of
-3-
4
any determination under the Indenture, then such other reasonably
comparable index which shall be designated by the Issuer.
(7) The Debentures shall not be redeemable at the option of any
Holder thereof, upon the occurrence of any particular circumstances or
otherwise. The Debentures will not have the benefit of any sinking fund.
(8) The Debentures shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000
and any integral multiple thereof.
(9) The Trustee shall also be the Security Registrar and Paying
Agent for the Debentures.
(10) The entire outstanding principal amount plus the Make-Whole
Amount of the Debentures shall be payable upon declaration of
acceleration of the maturity thereof pursuant to Section 502 of the
Indenture.
(11) Payments of the principal of and interest on the Debentures
shall be made in U.S. Dollars, and the Debentures shall be denominated
in U.S. Dollars.
(12) The Debentures will be payable on the Stated Maturity Date
in an amount equal to the principal amount thereof plus any unpaid
interest accrued to the Stated Maturity Date.
(13) The Holders of the Debentures shall have no special rights
in addition to those provided in the Indenture upon the occurrence of
any particular events.
(14) (A) There shall be no deletions from, modifications of or
additions to the Events of Default with respect to the Debentures set
forth in the Indenture.
(B) There shall be the following additions to the
covenants set forth in the Indenture with respect to the Debentures,
which shall be effective only for so long as any of the Debentures are
Outstanding:
Limitations On Incurrence of Debt. The Issuer will not,
and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt (as
defined below), other than inter-company debt representing Debt
to which the only parties are Xxxxxxx Properties, Inc., a
Maryland corporation (the "General Partner"), the Issuer and any
of their Subsidiaries (but only so long as such Debt is held
solely by any of the General Partner, the Issuer and any
Subsidiary) that is subordinate in right of payment to the
Debentures if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence
of such additional Debt, the aggregate principal amount of all
outstanding Debt of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis is greater than 60% of the sum of (i) Total
Assets (as defined below) as of the end of the calendar quarter
covered
-4-
5
in the Issuer's Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the
Trustee (or such reports of the General Partner if filed by the
Issuer with the Trustee in lieu of filing its own reports) prior
to the incurrence of such additional Debt and (ii) the increase
in Total Assets from the end of such quarter including, without
limitation, any increase in Total Assets resulting from the
incurrence of such additional Debt (such increase, together with
the Total Assets, is referred to as "Adjusted Total Assets").
In addition to the foregoing limitation on the
incurrence of Debt, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any
Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated
Income Available for Debt Service to the Annual Service Charge
(in each case as defined below) for the four consecutive fiscal
quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such
additional Debt is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5
to 1, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence
of such Debt and to the application of the proceeds therefrom,
and calculated on the assumption that (i) such Debt and any
other Debt incurred by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries since the
first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the
proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Debt, had
occurred at the beginning of such period, (ii) the repayment or
retirement of any other Debt by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries
since the first day of such four-quarter period had been
incurred, repaid or retired at the beginning of such period
(except that, in making such computation, the amount of Debt
under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon
the average daily balance of such Debt during such period),
(iii) the income earned on any increase in Adjusted Total Assets
since the end of such four-quarter period had been earned, on an
annualized basis, during such period, and (iv) in the case of
any acquisition or disposition by the Issuer or any Subsidiary
of any asset or group of assets since the first day of such
four-quarter period, including, without limitation, by merger,
stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such
acquisition or disposition or any related repayment of Debt had
occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate
adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition
being included in such pro forma calculation.
In addition to the foregoing limitations on the
incurrence of Debt, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any
Subsidiary to, incur any Debt secured by any mortgage, lien,
charge, pledge, encumbrance or security interest of any kind
upon any of the property of the Issuer or any Subsidiary
("Secured Debt"), whether owned at the date of the Indenture or
thereafter acquired, if, immediately after giving effect to the
incurrence of such additional Secured Debt, the aggregate
principal amount of all outstanding Secured Debt is greater than
40% of Adjusted Total Assets.
-5-
6
For purposes of the foregoing provisions regarding the
limitation on the incurrence of Debt, Debt shall be deemed to be
"incurred" by the Issuer or a Subsidiary whenever the Issuer and
its Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise
become liable in respect thereof.
Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets. The Issuer is
required to maintain Total Unencumbered Assets of not less than
165% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all
outstanding Unsecured Debt.

whether or not contingent, in respect of (i) borrowed money
evidenced by bonds, notes, debentures or similar instruments,
(ii) indebtedness secured by any mortgage, pledge, lien, charge,
encumbrance or any security interest existing on property owned
by the Issuer or such Subsidiary, (iii) the reimbursement
obligations, contingent or otherwise, in connection with any
letters of credit actually issued or amounts representing the
balance that constitutes an accrued expense or trade payable or
(iv) any lease of property by the Issuer or such Subsidiary as
lessee which is reflected in the Issuer's consolidated balance
sheet as a capitalized lease in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, in the case of items of
indebtedness under (i) through (iii) above to the extent that
any such items (other than letters of credit) would appear as a
liability on the Issuer's consolidated balance sheet in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and
also includes, to the extent not otherwise included, any
obligation by the Issuer or such Subsidiary to be liable
-6-

thereof to secure Debt, excluding infrastructure assessment
bonds, and (ii) all other assets of the Issuer and its
Subsidiaries determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles (but excluding intangibles and accounts
receivable) which have not been pledged, mortgaged or otherwise
encumbered by the owner thereof to secure Debt.

estate assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on such date,
before depreciation and amortization, determined on a
consolidated basis in accordance with generally accepted

secured by any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge, encumbrance or

by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Payments of the

may be made by (i) check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as
such address shall appear in the Security Register kept for the Debentures
pursuant to Section 305 of the Indenture (the "Debenture Register") or (ii)
transfer to an account of the Person entitled thereto located inside the United
States.
This Debenture is one of a fully authorized issue of securities of the
Issuer issued as a series of securities issued and to be issued under an
Indenture, dated as of December 6, 1995 as supplemented by the Tenth
Supplemental Indenture dated December 8, 1997 (collectively, the "Indenture"),
among the Issuer and First Trust of California, National Association (the
"Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with
respect to the Debentures), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights,
limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the
Trustee and the Holders of the Debentures, and of the terms upon which the
Debentures are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Debenture is
one of the series designated as the "7.35% Debentures due December 1, 2017,"
limited in the aggregate principal amount to $200,000,000.
The Debentures may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Issuer,
in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price (the "Redemption
Price") equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of the Debentures (or
portion thereof) being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the redemption
date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount (as defined below), if any, with respect to
such Debentures (or portion thereof).
If notice has been given as provided in the Indenture and funds for the
redemption of any Debentures (or any portion thereof) called for redemption
shall have been made available on the redemption date referred to in such
notice, such Debentures (or any portion thereof) will cease to bear interest on
the date fixed for such redemption specified in such notice and the only right
of the Holders of the Debentures will be to receive payment of the Redemption
Price, with respect to such Debentures or portion thereof so redeemed.
Notice of any optional redemption of any Debentures (or any portion
thereof) will be given to Holders at their addresses, as shown in the Debenture
Register, not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for
redemption. The notice of redemption will specify, among other items, the
Redemption Price and the principal amount of the Debentures held by such Holder
to be redeemed.
-2-
15
The Issuer will notify the Trustee at least 45 days prior to giving
notice of redemption (or such shorter period as is satisfactory to the Trustee)
of the aggregate principal amount of Debentures to be redeemed and their
redemption date. If less than all the Debentures are to be redeemed at the
option of the Issuer, the Trustee shall select, in such manner as it shall deem
fair and appropriate, the Debentures to be redeemed in whole or in part.
In the event of redemption of the Debentures in part only, a new
Debenture for the amount of the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the
name of the Holder hereto, upon cancellation hereof.
As used herein:

redemption or accelerated payment of any Debentures, the excess, if any,
of (i) the aggregate present value as of the date of such redemption or
accelerated payment of each dollar of principal being redeemed or paid
and the amount of interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of
redemption or accelerated payment) that would have been payable in
respect of each such dollar if such redemption or accelerated payment
had not been made, determined by discounting, on a semi-annual basis,
such principal and interest at the Reinvestment Rate (determined on the
third Business Day preceding the date such notice of redemption is given
or declaration of acceleration is made) from the respective dates on
which such principal and interest would have been payable if such
redemption or accelerated payment had not been made, over (ii) the
aggregate principal amount of the Debentures being redeemed or paid.
"Reinvestment Rate" means 0.25% plus the arithmetic mean of the
yields under the respective heading "Week Ending" published in the most
recent Statistical Release under the caption "Treasury Constant
Maturities" for the maturity (rounded to the nearest month)
corresponding to the remaining life to maturity, as of the payment date
of the principal being redeemed or paid. If no maturity exactly
corresponds to such maturity, yields for the two published maturities
most closely corresponding to such maturity shall be calculated pursuant

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the
entire indebtedness of the Issuer on this Debenture and (b) certain restrictive
covenants and the related defaults and Events of Default applicable to the
Issuer, in each case, upon compliance by the Issuer with certain conditions set
forth in the Indenture, which provisions apply to this Debenture.
The Issuer is subject to certain covenants contained in the Indenture
with respect to, and for the benefit of the Holders of, the Debentures. The
Trustee shall not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or
otherwise, the Issuer's compliance with the covenants contained in the Indenture
or with respect to reports or other certificates filed under the Indenture;
provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve the Trustee of any
obligations to monitor the Issuer's timely delivery of all reports and
certificates required under Sections 703 and 1005 of the Indenture and to
fulfill its obligations under Article Six of the Indenture. If an Event of
Default as defined in the Indenture with respect to the Debentures shall occur
and be continuing, the principal of the Debentures may be declared due and
payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the
Holder of this Debenture shall not have the right to institute any proceeding
with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or
for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given
the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
Debentures, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Debentures at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the
Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee
and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity and shall have failed to institute
any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer
of indemnity and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Debentures at the time Outstanding a
direction inconsistent with such request. The foregoing shall not apply to any
suit instituted by the Holder of this Debenture for the enforcement of any
payment of principal hereof or any interest on or after the respective due dates
expressed herein.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Debentures under the Indenture at
any time by the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not
less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Debentures. The
Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a
majority in principal amount of the Debentures at the time Outstanding, on
behalf of the Holders of all Debentures, to waive compliance by the Issuer with
certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the
Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all
future Holders of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof,
whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Debenture.

tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
Prior to due presentment of this Debenture for registration of transfer,
