equal to the cash actually contributed by such Limited Partners on the
Adjustment Date minus an amount equal to the product of (A) the L.P. Per Unit
Contribution minus the G.P. Per Unit Contribution and (B) the number of Limited
Partner Units purchased by such Limited Partner pursuant to such Election
Notice."
"(2) Upon the acceptance of additional Capital Contributions pursuant to

contributed as of the Adjustment Date, net of any liabilities assumed by the
Partnership in connection with such assets or Nonrecourse Liabilities to which
such Property is subject, and the Percentage Interests of the Partners shall be
adjusted based upon the number of Partnership Units issued in connection with
such Capital Contribution; provided that with respect to the Capital
Contribution made by TRC pursuant to that certain Contribution Agreement (the

(b) The words "and not pursuant to section 4.5.G hereof" in the last
sentence of clause (3) and in the second sentence of clause (4) are hereby
deleted in their entirety.
(c) Clause (5) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:
"(5) Promptly following the close of business on the third business day
preceding each DRIP/ACP Investment Date, the Original Limited Partners
shall give written notice to the General Partner of (i) the number of
REIT Shares beneficially owned by the Original Limited Partners and
Irvine Persons as of such close of business (whether under the DRIP/ACP
Plan or otherwise), (ii) the aggregate amount of dividends to be paid
with respect to such number of REIT Shares, if any, which such Persons
have elected to be reinvested in newly issued REIT Shares on such
DRIP/ACP Investment Date pursuant to the DRIP/ACP Plan and (iii) the
aggregate amount of additional cash, if any, to be invested by all such
Persons in newly issued REIT Shares on such DRIP/ACP Investment Date
pursuant to the DRIP/ACP Plan. Such notice shall be provided by The
Irvine Company on behalf of all such Persons so long as The Irvine
Company or any of its Affiliates is the holder of a Limited Partner
Interest (and thereafter by the Original Limited Partner holding the
largest Percentage Interest in the Partnership) and such information
shall be used by the General Partner in determining the DRIP/ACP
Investment Amount for purposes of the notice given by it pursuant to
Section 4.8.A(1). In the event the notice required by this clause (5) is
not given by the close of business on the second business day preceding
a DRIP/ACP Investment Date, the General Partner shall determine the
DRIP/ACP Investment Amount based on the following assumptions: (i) that
the Original Limited Partners and Irvine Persons beneficially own the
number of REIT Shares set forth in the most recent Form 3 or Form 4 or
Schedule 13G filed by such Persons pursuant to the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, (ii) that such Persons will reinvest pursuant
to the DRIP/ACP Plan all the dividends to be paid on such number of REIT
Shares on the applicable DRIP/ACP Investment Date and (iii) that each
such Person will make on the applicable DRIP/ACP Investment Date the
maximum additional cash investment permitted by the DRIP/ACP Plan to be
made by such Person on such DRIP/ACP Investment Date.
