RECITALS
A. Investor and Operator, as the only members of TPG/CalSTRS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), entered into that certain Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of TPG/CalSTRS, LLC, dated as of October 13, 2004 (the “Original Agreement”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of TPG/CalSTRS, LLC, dated as of June 8, 2006, that certain Second Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of TPG/CalSTRS, LLC, dated as of May 25, 2007, that certain Third Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of TPG/CalSTRS, LLC, dated as of February 1, 2008, and that certain Fourth Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement dated as of November 5, 2008 (collectively with the “Original Agreement”, the “Agreement”). All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.
B. Investor and Operator wish to further amend the Agreement, as set forth herein, to among other things, allow for the reduction of the minimum percentage ownership in the securities of Xxxxxx Properties Group, Inc. (“TPGI”) required to be held by Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx, his immediate family and any entity controlled thereby, as a test for a permitted Transfer of securities of TPGI under Section 8.01 of the Agreement.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Investor and Operator hereby agree as follows:
Section 2.02(q) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the words “Exhibit I” and substituting the words “Exhibit J” in lieu thereof.
Section 8.01 “Limitations on Transfer” of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the first sentence of subsection (a) and substituting the following sentence in lieu thereof:
No Member, and no Person owning any direct or indirect interest in a Member, may Transfer all or any part of such
1
Member’s or assignee’s Interest, including without limitation, Transfers of any right to receive distributions or any other economic interest; provided however, the following Transfers shall be permitted: (i) Transfers to a Permitted Transferee, and (ii) so long as (1) the requirements of Section 12.01(a)(i) are satisfied with respect to Operator following such Transfer, (2) the requirements to avoid a Key Individual Default are satisfied with respect to Operator following such Transfer, and (3) TPGI remains the sole general partner of Operator, any Transfer of the stock of TPGI, operating partnership units of Operator with paired limited voting shares, and other securities of TPGI, unless such Transfer results in Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx, his immediate family, or any entity controlled thereby, having beneficial ownership of less than thirty percent (30%) of the securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of TPGI (the “Beneficial Ownership Test”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely in connection with any public offering(s) which result in the issuance of additional shares of TPGI’s common stock, the Beneficial Ownership Test shall not be applied if the effect of applying such test would be to prevent or limit the issuance of any such shares so long as, immediately upon the issuance of such additional shares (and at all times thereafter), Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx, his immediate family, or any entity controlled thereby, retain not less than (A) ten percent (10%) of the securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of TPGI and (B) a total of Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares of TPGI common stock and/or operating partnership units of Operator with paired limited voting shares. If at any time following the issuance of additional shares of TPGI’s common stock in a public offering as described above, Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx or his immediate family, or entities controlled thereby have beneficial ownership of less than thirty percent (30%) of the securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of TPGI as permitted hereby, with respect to any subsequent Transfers that would be permitted under clause (ii) above, the actual percentage (after giving effect to any such stock issuance(s)) of TPGI’s common stock beneficially owned by Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx or his immediate family, or entities controlled thereby shall be substituted for “thirty percent (30%)” for the purpose of determining compliance with the Beneficial Ownership Test.
Section 14.01 of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the Investor’s notice information and substituting the following notice information for the Investor in lieu thereof:
If to Investor: California State Teachers’ Retirement System

Investor shall provide prompt notice to the Operator of any revision to the Policy, or change in the Covered Persons or Reporting Persons, and shall cooperate in good faith with the Operator to explore reasonable means of avoiding a violation of the Policy prior to its occurrence.
(c) Without limiting the obligation of the Operator to make inquiry of the Reporting Persons, in the event the Operator inadvertently failed to disclose any information that was required to be disclosed pursuant to the Policy, then the Operator shall have thirty (30) days from the date the Operator first became aware of such failure to remedy such breach of the Policy.
3
(d) The reasonable cost of attendance at meetings of the Management Committee, annual or other periodic meetings of the Members or site visits to Projects or potential Projects borne by the Company or the Operator, including but not limited to the reasonable cost of any travel, accommodations, materials, meals, or refreshments, shall not be deemed to violate the Policy or require any notice by the Operator pursuant to the Policy.
(e) In the event that (i) the Operator fails to timely provide the information required by the Policy, or (ii) there is a violation of the Policy by the Company or the Operator, then, in either such case Investor may, at its option, disqualify the Company, the Operator, the Reporting Persons and their respective Affiliates from entering into any future transactions with Investor or its Affiliates for a period of up to two (2) years.

Xxxxxx, his immediate family, and any entity controlled thereby, fails to comply with the Beneficial Ownership Test, or (c) as to a Buy/Sell Notice to be given by the Non-Defaulting Member, an Event of Default by the Defaulting Member.
Section 1.03(b) of Exhibit E to the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is substituted in lieu thereof:
Operator shall promptly notify Investor of any change in Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx’ direct or indirect ownership, management or control of Operator, excluding any Transfer of the stock of TPGI, operating partnership units of Operator with paired
4
limited voting shares and other securities of TPGI, unless such Transfer results in Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx, his immediate family, and any entity controlled thereby failing to comply with the Beneficial Ownership Test.
New Exhibit N-1, N-2 and N-3, copies of which are attached to this Amendment, are hereby added to the Agreement in their entirety and incorporated therein by reference.
Except as expressly provided in this Amendment, all of the terms and provisions of the Agreement remain unmodified and in full force and effect.
Each individual executing this Amendment on behalf of an entity hereby represents and warrants to the other party or parties to this Amendment that (a) such individual has been duly and validly authorized to execute and deliver this Amendment on behalf of such entity; and (b) this Amendment is and will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by such entity.
This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement with the same effect as if all parties had signed the same signature page.
