Units (as defined in the Initial Agreement) of the Operating Partnership certain

Partnership of certain real estate known as Inverness Phase III; and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto have agreed that, except as stated
herein, they and the Additional Units shall be governed by and subject to the
Initial Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the
foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are
acknowledged, agree as follows:
1. General.
1(a) Except as otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms
used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Initial Agreement.
1(b) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Lowders and the
Company shall have all of the rights and obligations with respect to the
Additional Units as are provided for in the Initial Agreement with respect to
the Common Shares and Units expressly referred to therein. Nothing in this
Agreement shall be deemed to amend, waive, supplement, or otherwise affect the
terms of the Initial Agreement.
2. Definitions.
Except as otherwise provided herein,
2(a) The Additional Units shall be deemed "Units" as that term
is defined in the Initial Agreement, and any Common Shares issued upon
redemption of Additional Units shall be deemed "Shares" as that term is defined
in the Initial Agreement. The Additional Units and any Common Shares issuable

Additional Units shall be deemed "Registrable Securities" as that term is
defined in the Initial Agreement.
2(c) Each of the Lowders and their permitted successors and
assigns shall be deemed a "Holder" as that term is defined in the Initial
Agreement and shall be referred to as a Holder herein.
3. Lock-up Agreement.

the Initial Agreement, each Holder hereby agrees that, except as set forth in
Section 3(b) below, for a period of one year from the date hereof (the "Lock-up
Period"), without the prior written consent of the Company, it will not offer,
pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any options for the sale of or otherwise
dispose of, directly or indirectly (collectively, "Dispose of"), any New

Securities to his or her spouse, siblings, parents or any
natural or adopted children or other descendants or to any
personal trust in which such family members or such Holder
retain the entire beneficial interest;
(iii)a Holder may Dispose of New Securities to any entity
that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with
such Holder; and
(iv) a Holder may Dispose of New Securities pursuant to a
pledge, grant of security interest or other encumbrance effected
in a bona fide transaction with an unrelated and unaffiliated
pledgee.
In the event a Holder Disposes of New Securities described in this
Section 3(b) (except pursuant to clause (iv) hereof), such New Securities shall
remain subject to this Agreement and, as a condition of the validity of such
disposition, the transferee shall be required to execute and deliver a
counterpart of this Agreement (except that a pledgee shall not be required to
execute and deliver a counterpart of this Agreement until it forecloses upon
such New Securities). Thereafter, such transferee shall be deemed to be a Holder
for purposes of this Agreement.
4. Shelf Registration Under the Securities Act.
Beginning after the expiration of the Lock-up Period, each
Holder shall be entitled to offer for sale pursuant to a Registration Statement
any Registrable Securities held by the Holder, subject to the terms and
conditions, and pursuant to the procedures, specified in Sections 3 and 4 of the
Initial Agreement.
