B. The Operating Partnership desires to purchase for cash and through a
contribution to capital from the Grantor, and the Grantor desires to grant to
the Operating Partnership, an option to acquire, on the terms and conditions set
forth herein, all interests owned by the Grantor in the Partnership as set forth
on Schedule A attached hereto and any other direct or indirect interests the
Grantor may have, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, in the Partnership,
or in the properties owned by the Partnership (collectively, the "INTERESTS".)
C. The Operating Partnership desires to acquire the Interests in

corporation (the "COMPANY"), which intends to qualify as a real estate
investment trust and which is the sole general partner and a limited partner of
the Operating Partnership, and (ii) the proposed initial public offering (the
"IPO") and concurrent private placement (collectively, "OFFERINGS") of shares of
the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("COMMON STOCK").
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of ten dollars ($10.00) paid by the
Operating Partnership to the Grantor, these premises, the mutual covenants and
conditions set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Operating
Partnership and Grantor agree as follows:
ARTICLE I: THE OPTION
1.1 Grant of Option. The Grantor hereby irrevocably grants to the
Operating Partnership the right and option (the "OPTION") to purchase for cash
and through a contribution to the capital of the Operating Partnership all the
Grantor's right, title and interest in the Interests, including but not limited
to, the Interest set forth on Schedule A attached hereto, on the terms and
conditions set forth herein.
1.2 Term and Exercise of Option. The Option may be exercised by the
Operating Partnership at any time from and after the date hereof through 5:00
p.m. on December 31, 1997 (the "OPTION TERMINATION DATE"); provided, that if on
the Option Termination Date the Operating Partnership or the Grantor is
prohibited by applicable law, or the Operating Partnership or the Grantor is
subject to a stay, order, injunction, or similar limitation or any pending or
threatened action or proceeding to enjoin, restrain, prohibit or assess
substantial damages in respect of the exercise by the Operating Partnership of
the Option, then the Option may be exercised by the Operating Partnership during
the 10 business day period commencing on the first business day following the
removal of each such prohibition, stay, order, injunction, action, proceeding or
similar limitation in effect at that time. Subject to the foregoing, if the
Operating Partnership does not exercise the Option by the Option Termination

interest in the Operating Partnership ("OP UNITS"), in the percentages and

is actually being made(provided, that, in no event shall the
Acquisition Consideration, as adjusted hereunder, consist of less than
one OP Unit), which adjustment shall be determined in the Operating
Partnership's reasonable discretion, and shall in all events be binding
upon the Grantor.

partnership, limited liability company or trust duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its
organization and had and has all applicable power and authority to
execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and the Closing Documents;
(ii) the execution, delivery and performance by the Grantor of
this Agreement and the Closing Documents, and the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, do not:

Grantor's charter and/or bylaws, partnership agreement,
operating agreement and articles of organization or
declaration of trust, as applicable, or, to the knowledge of
such counsel, any indenture, deed of trust, mortgage, loan or
credit agreement or other material agreement or instrument to
which the Grantor is a party or by which it or its assets or
properties are bound or affected, except for such breach or
violation as the Operating Partnership has represented and
warranted will be waived or cured, or discharged or repaid
prior to or contemporaneously with the Closing;

(as defined in Section 3.1(a)); and
(iii) all applicable corporate, partnership, limited liability
company or trust action necessary for the Grantor to execute and deliver this
Agreement and the Closing Documents and to perform the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby has been taken and that the same have been validly executed

bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or
other similar laws affecting creditors' rights and remedies generally.
(d) An affidavit establishing an exemption from the withholding
requirements of the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act ("FIRPTA"), as
amended, provided, however, that if the Grantor fails to provide such an
affidavit, the Operating Partnership shall be entitled to withhold from the
Acquisition Consideration and pay to the Internal Revenue Service the sums
required to be withheld pursuant to FIRPTA (and the amount so withheld shall be
paid by the Operating Partnership to the Internal Revenue Service, in order for
the Operating Partnership to comply with the provisions of Section 1445 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or successor similar legislation, as the same may
be amended hereafter).
(e) The Lock-up Agreements and a duly executed signature page to the
Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating
Partnership, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit D (the "PARTNERSHIP

Partnership shall reasonably request in order to assign, transfer and convey the
Grantor's Interests to the Operating Partnership and to otherwise effect the
transactions contemplated hereby, including filings with any applicable
governmental jurisdiction in which the Operating Partnership is required to file
its partnership documentation.
2.4 Cessation of Offerings. If at any time the Board of Directors of
the Company determines in good faith to abandon the formation of the Company or

and thereupon all parties hereto will be relieved of all obligations under this
Agreement and all Closing Documents (except for obligations arising under

2.5 Closing Costs. The Operating Partnership agrees to pay all of the

the Interests pursuant to the exercise by the Operating Partnership of the
Option.
2.6 Default. (a) If after having exercised the Option, the Operating
Partnership fails to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (including
a failure due to the Offerings Closing not having occurred), then the Operating
Partnership will pay to the Grantor the sum of $100.00 as liquidated and agreed
upon damages. The parties acknowledge that it would be difficult, if not
impossible, to ascertain the actual measure of the Grantor's damages in the
event of the Operating Partnership's default and the parties agree that $100.00
is a fair reflection of the Grantor's damages in such event.
(b) If the Grantor defaults with respect to its obligations under this
Agreement, the Operating Partnership shall be entitled to exercise against the
Grantor any and all remedies provided at law or in equity, including but not
limited to, the right of specific performance.

incurred or in part arising out of or in connection with its acting as
Attorney-in-Fact under the Power of Attorney created by the Grantor hereby, as
well as the cost and expense of investigating and defending against any such
loss, claim, damage or liability, except to the extent such loss, claim, damage
or liability is due to the gross negligence or bad faith of such
Attorney-in-Fact.
(d) The Grantor agrees that each Attorney-in-Fact may consult with
counsel of its own choice (who may be counsel for the Operating Partnership
