Each of the provisions contained in this Agreement is distinct and severable and a declaration of invalidity or unenforceability of any such provision or part thereof by a court of competent jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the parties waive any provision of Law which renders any provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable in any respect. The parties will engage in good faith negotiations to replace any provision which is declared invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid or unenforceable provision which it replaces.

1.5	Entire Agreement

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement. There are no warranties, conditions, or representations (including any that may be implied by statute) and there are no agreements in connection with such subject matter except as specifically set forth or referred to in this Agreement. No reliance is placed on any warranty, representation, opinion, advice or assertion of fact made either prior to, contemporaneous with, or after entering into this Agreement, or any amendment or supplement hereto, by any party to this Agreement or its directors, officers, employees or agents, to any other party to this Agreement or its directors, officers, employees or agents, except to the extent that the same has been reduced to writing and included as a term of this Agreement, and none of the parties to this Agreement has been induced to enter into this Agreement or any amendment or supplement by reason of any such warranty, representation, opinion, advice or assertion of fact. Accordingly, there will be no liability, either in tort or in contract, assessed in relation to any such warranty, representation, opinion, advice or assertion of fact, except to the extent contemplated above.

1.6	Waiver, Amendment

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no amendment or waiver of this Agreement will be binding unless executed in writing by the party to be bound thereby. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provision nor will any waiver of any provision of this Agreement constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. A party's failure or delay in exercising any right under this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of that right. A single or partial exercise of any right will not preclude a party from any other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right.

1.7	Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction

This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Bermuda. Each of the Partners (other than governmental entities prohibited from submitting to the jurisdiction of a particular jurisdiction) will submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in Bermuda in any dispute, suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Each Partner waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any immunity from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process therein and further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any claim of inconvenient forum, improper venue or that any such court does not have jurisdiction over the Partner. Any final judgment against a Partner in any proceedings brought in any court in Bermuda will be conclusive and binding upon the Partner and may be enforced in the courts of any other jurisdiction of which the Partner is or may be subject, by suit upon such judgment. The foregoing submission to jurisdiction and waivers will survive the dissolution, liquidation, winding up and termination of the Partnership.

3.6.2.

Whenever such a distribution, subdivision or combination of Partnership Interests or options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests is declared, the General Partner shall select a Record Date as of which the distribution, subdivision or combination shall be effective and shall send notice thereof at least 20 days prior to such Record Date to each Record Holder as of a date not less than 10 days prior to the date of such notice. The General Partner also may cause independent public accountants of international standing selected by it to calculate the number of Partnership Interests to be held by each Record Holder after giving effect to such distribution, subdivision or combination. The General Partner shall be entitled to rely on any certificate provided by such firm as conclusive evidence of the accuracy of such calculation.

3.6.3.

Promptly following any such distribution, subdivision or combination, the Partnership may issue Certificates to the Record Holders of Partnership Interests or options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests as of the applicable Record Date representing the new number of Partnership Interests or options, rights, warrants or appreciation rights relating to Partnership Interests held by such Record Holders, or the General Partner may adopt such other procedures that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to reflect such changes.

ARTICLE 4

ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

4.1	Determination of Net Income or Loss

Subject to section 4.4, the net income or loss of the Partnership for each fiscal year shall be determined by the General Partner in accordance with IFRS-IASB.

4.2	General Allocations

Limited Partners shall share in the net profits and net losses of the Partnership, generally in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests and, if applicable, their respective relative percentage of Preferred Units held (determined by reference to the aggregate value of the issue price of the Preferred Units held by each Preferred Unitholder relative to the aggregate value of the issue price of all Preferred Units then Outstanding).

4.3	No Right to Withdraw Accounts

No Partner shall have the right to withdraw any or all of its Capital Contribution or to receive any distribution from the Partnership except as expressly provided in this Agreement and permitted by the Limited Partnership Act.

4.4	Allocations for Tax Purposes

4.4.1.

For United States federal income tax purposes, allocations of items of income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit for each taxable year or other relevant period of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Partners pro rata to their respective Percentage Interests, except to the extent (i) that any such allocations would not have substantial economic effect or are not in accordance with the Partners' interests in the Partnership (in each case, as determined pursuant to Section 704(b) of the Code) or (ii) otherwise required by applicable Law or by reason of tax elections made by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership, and, in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), the General Partner shall adjust allocations as necessary so as to comply with the requirements of Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, relevant provisions of Law, or elections made by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership (as applicable); provided, however, that any such adjustments shall be made in the sole discretion of the General Partner. In furtherance of the foregoing, and for purposes of the proper administration of the Partnership and in order to preserve the uniformity of the Units, the General Partner, in its sole discretion, may (i) make such changes to the allocations as the General Partner deems necessary to (x) reflect the proposal, amendment or promulgation of Treasury Regulations under Section 704 of the Code or (y) otherwise preserve the uniformity of the Units, and (ii) adopt, employ or otherwise modify such conventions and methods as the General Partner determines to be appropriate for (a) the determination of the identities and tax classification of the Partners, (b) the valuation of Assets and the determination of the tax bases thereof, (c) the allocation of asset values and tax bases, (d) the adoption and maintenance of tax accounting methods and tax elections, and (e) the determination of allocations of items between transferors and transferees of Units, including the adoption of monthly, quarterly or other conventions that are consistent with Section 706 of the Code. The source and character of items of income, gain, loss and deduction allocated to a Partner will be the same source and character as the income or gain earned or the loss or deduction incurred by the Partnership.

4.4.2.

The Income for Canadian Tax Purposes for a given fiscal year of the Partnership will be allocated to each Partner in an amount calculated by multiplying the Income for Canadian Tax Purposes by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the distributions received by such Partner with respect to such fiscal year and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of the distributions made by the Partnership to Partners with respect to such fiscal year, provided that the numerator and denominator will not include any distributions on the Preferred Units that are in satisfaction of accrued distributions on the Preferred Units that were not paid in a previous fiscal year of the Partnership where the General Partner determines that the inclusion of such distributions would result in a Preferred Unitholder being allocated more income than it would have been if the distributions were paid in the fiscal year of the Partnership in which they were accrued. Generally, the source and character of items of income so allocated to a Partner with respect to a fiscal year of the Partnership will be the same source and character as the distributions received by such Partner with respect to such fiscal year. If, with respect to a given fiscal year, no distribution is made by the Partnership or the Partnership has a Loss for Canadian Tax Purposes, one quarter of the Income for Canadian Tax Purposes or the Loss for Canadian Tax Purposes, as the case may be, for such fiscal year, will be allocated to the Partners of record at the end of each Quarter ending in such fiscal year as follows: (i) to the Preferred Unitholders in respect of Preferred Units held by them on each such date, such amount of the Income for Canadian Tax Purposes or the Loss for Canadian Tax Purposes, as the case may be, as the General Partner determines is reasonable in the circumstances having regard to such factors as the General Partner considers to be relevant, including, without limitation, the relative amount of capital contributed to the Partnership on the issuance of Preferred Units as compared to all other Units and the relative fair market value of the Preferred Units as compared to all other Units, and (ii) to the Partners other than in respect of Preferred Units, the remaining amount of the Income for Canadian Tax Purposes or the Loss for Canadian Tax Purposes, as the case may be, pro rata to their respective Percentage Interests on each such date. To such end, any Person who was a Partner at any time during such fiscal year but who has disposed of all of such Person's Units before the last day of that fiscal year may be deemed to be a Partner on the last day of such fiscal year for the purposes of subsection 96(1) of the Income Tax Act. Generally, the source and character of such income or losses so allocated to a Partner at the end of each Quarter will be the same source and character as the income or loss earned or incurred by the Partnership in such Quarter.

4.4.3.

Notwithstanding Sections 4.4.1 and 4.4.2, any gain for Canadian Tax Purposes allocated by BRELP in accordance with Section 4.8.3.2 of the BRELP Agreement to the Partnership in respect of the disposition of common shares of CanHoldco by BRELP, shall be allocated for Canadian Tax Purposes firstly, in respect of any Units held by the Brookfield Group that were acquired pursuant to the Redemption-Exchange Mechanism, such portion of the gain, if any, that would otherwise have been allocated for Canadian Tax Purposes to the Brookfield Group pursuant to Section 4.8.3.1 of the BRELP Agreement on the assumption that such Units had not been exchanged and remained Units of BRELP shall be allocated pro rata to the Brookfield Group in respect of the Units acquired pursuant to the Redemption-Exchange Mechanism and secondly the remaining gain, if any, shall be allocated for Canadian Tax Purposes to Unitholders on a per Unit basis excluding Units owned by the Brookfield Group immediately after the completion of the Plan of Arrangement and Units acquired by the Brookfield Group pursuant to the Redemption-Exchange Mechanism.

4.5	Currency Translation

Allocations of amounts other than in U.S. Dollars shall be undertaken following translation into the amount of U.S. Dollars into which such amount could have been converted on the last date of the relevant Quarter (or such other relevant period of determination) using the exchange rate between such other currency and the U.S. Dollars published in the "Exchange Rates" table of the Wall Street Journal on such date, or similar publication if The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or, in the event that the "Exchange Rates" table of the Wall Street Journal, or similar publication was not published on such date, the closest date immediately preceding the date of such payment on which the "Exchange Rates" table of the Wall Street Journal, or similar publication, was published provided that all such translations shall be in accordance with the applicable rules set forth in the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations.

4.6	Distributions

Subject to this Article 4, the General Partner may in its sole discretion make distributions at any time or from time to time to the Preferred Unitholders in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to the terms of any Preferred Units then Outstanding, the General Partner may in its sole discretion make distributions at any time or from time to time to the Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests, provided that all such distributions to the Limited Partners shall be paid by the Partnership directly or through the Transfer Agent or through any other Person or agent only to the Record Holders pro rata according to their respective Percentage Interests as of the Record Date set for such distribution. The payment of any distributions in accordance with this Agreement shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Partnership's liability in respect of such payment, regardless of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise. The amount of Taxes withheld or paid by the Partnership or another member of the BREP Group in respect of a Partnership Interest held by a Partner shall be treated either as a distribution to such Partner or as a general expense of the Partnership, as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion, and the General Partner shall report to the Partners on an annual basis the amount of such Taxes withheld or paid.

4.7	Prohibition on Distributions

The General Partner shall not cause the Partnership to make any distribution pursuant to this Article 4:

4.7.1.

unless there is sufficient cash available therefor;

4.7.2.

which would render the Partnership unable to pay its debts as and when they fall due; or

4.7.3.

which, in the opinion of the General Partner, would or might leave the Partnership with insufficient funds to meet any future or contingent obligations or which would contravene the Limited Partnership Act.

The General Partner and any of its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, agents, shareholders, partners, members and employees, any Person who serves on the board of directors or other Governing Body of any member of the BREP Group, and any Person that the General Partner designates as an indemnified person (each, an "Indemnified Party") shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, be indemnified on an after Tax basis out of the Assets (and the General Partner shall be entitled to grant indemnities on behalf of the Partnership, and to make payments out of the Assets, to any Indemnified Party in each case in accordance with this Section 5.6) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements and other amounts (collectively, "Liabilities") arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits and proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any Indemnified Party is or may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, in connection with the investments and activities of the Partnership or by reason of such Person being the General Partner, or an Affiliate of the General Partner, or an officer, director, agent, shareholder, partner, member or employee of the General Partner or an Affiliate of the General Partner, or a Person who serves on the board of directors or other Governing Body of any member of the BREP Group, provided that no such Indemnified Party shall be so indemnified, with respect to any matter for which indemnification is sought, to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines pursuant to a final and non appealable judgment that, in respect of such matter, the Indemnified Party acted in a grossly negligent manner or in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct, or in the case of a criminal matter, acted with knowledge that the Indemnified Party's conduct was unlawful. An Indemnified Party shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 5.6 because the Indemnified Party had an interest in the transaction with respect to which indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

5.6.2.

To the fullest extent permitted by Law, amounts incurred in respect of Liabilities incurred by an Indemnified Party in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, shall from time to time be advanced by the Partnership prior to a determination that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified, upon receipt by the Partnership of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified as provided by the proviso of Section 5.6.1.

5.6.3.

The indemnification provided by this Section 5.6 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnified Party may be entitled under any agreement, as a matter of the Law or otherwise, both as to actions in the Indemnified Party's capacity as an Indemnified Party and as to actions in any other capacity, and shall continue as to any Indemnified Party who has ceased to serve in the capacity in which such Indemnified Party became entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.6, and shall inure to the benefit of such Person's heirs, successors, assigns and administrators. The indemnification provisions of this Section 5.6 are for the benefit of each Indemnified Party, its heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Person.

5.6.4.

No amendment, modification or repeal of this provision or any other provision of this Agreement shall in any manner terminate, reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Indemnified Party to be indemnified by the Partnership or the obligations of the Partnership to indemnify any such Indemnified Party under and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding may arise or be asserted.

5.6.5.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) no Indemnified Party shall be liable to the Partnership, any Partner or any other Person who has acquired an interest in a Partnership Interest for any Liabilities sustained or incurred by such Person as a result of any act or omission of the Indemnified Party, except to the extent there has been a final and non appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that such Liabilities resulted from the Indemnified Party's gross negligence, bad faith, fraud, wilful misconduct, or in the case of a criminal matter, actions with knowledge that the conduct was unlawful and (ii) subject to applicable Law, any matter that is approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any duties to the Partnership or to the Partners stated or implied by Law or equity, including fiduciary duties.

5.6.6.

Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 5.6 (or that otherwise affects Section 5.6) that limits its scope shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability of the Indemnified Parties under this Section 5.6 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding may arise or be asserted, provided that the Indemnified Party became an Indemnified Party hereunder prior to such amendment, modification or repeal.

5.6.7.

The provisions of this Section 5.6 shall survive the dissolution of the Partnership.

5.7	Resolution of Conflicts of Interest

5.7.1.

The General Partner may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

5.8.2.

The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisers selected by it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the opinion (including an Opinion of Counsel) of such Persons as to matters that such General Partner reasonably believes to be within such Person's professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion.

5.8.3.

The General Partner shall have the right, in respect of any of its powers or obligations hereunder, to act through any of its duly authorized officers or any duly appointed attorney or attorneys-in-fact.

5.8.4.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any standard of care applicable to the General Partner shall be modified, waived or limited as required to permit the General Partner to act in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby.

5.9	Title to Partnership Assets

Title to Assets, whether real, personal or mixed and whether tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Partnership as an entity, and no Partner, individually or collectively, shall have any ownership interest in such Assets or any portion thereof. Title to any or all of the Assets may be held in the name of the Partnership, the General Partner, one or more of its Affiliates or one or more nominees, as the General Partner may determine. The General Partner hereby declares and warrants that any Assets for which record title is held in the name of the General Partner or one or more Affiliates of the General Partner or one or more nominees shall be held by the General Partner or such Affiliate or nominee for the use and benefit of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the General Partner shall use its reasonable efforts to cause record title to such Assets (other than those assets in respect of which the General Partner determines that the expense and difficulty of conveyancing makes transfer of record title to the Partnership impracticable) to be transferred into the name of the Partnership as soon as reasonably practicable; provided that, prior to the withdrawal of the General Partner or as soon thereafter as practicable, the General Partner shall use reasonable efforts to effect the transfer of record title to the Partnership and prior to any such transfer, will provide for the use of such Assets in a manner satisfactory to the Partnership. All Assets shall be recorded as the property of the Partnership in its books and records, irrespective of the name in which record title to such Assets is held.

5.10	Purchase or Sale of Units

The General Partner may, upon notice to the Transfer Agent, cause the Partnership to purchase or otherwise acquire Units. As long as Units are held by the Partnership, such Units shall not be considered Outstanding for any purpose, except as otherwise provided herein. The General Partner or any Affiliate of the General Partner may also purchase or otherwise acquire and sell or otherwise dispose of Units for its own account, subject to the provisions of Article 10 and Article 11.

5.11	Reliance by Third Parties

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Person dealing with the Partnership shall be entitled to assume that the General Partner has full power and authority to encumber, sell or otherwise use in any manner any and all Assets and to enter into any contracts on behalf of the Partnership, including contracts related to the incurrence or guarantee of indebtedness, and such Person shall be entitled to deal with the General Partner as if it were the Partnership's sole party in interest, both legally and beneficially. Each Limited Partner hereby waives any and all defenses or other remedies that may be available against such Person to contest, negate or disaffirm any action of the General Partner in connection with any such dealing. In no event shall any Person dealing with the General Partner or its representatives be obligated to ascertain that the terms of this Agreement have been complied with or to inquire into the necessity or expedience of any act or action of the General Partner or its representatives. Each and every certificate, document or other instrument executed on behalf of the Partnership by the General Partner or its representatives shall be conclusive evidence in favor of any and every Person relying thereon or claiming thereunder that (a) at the time of the execution and delivery of such certificate, document or instrument, this Agreement was in full force and effect, (b) the Person executing and delivering such certificate, document or instrument was duly authorized and empowered to do so for and on behalf of the Partnership and (c) such certificate, document or instrument was duly executed and delivered in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and is binding upon the Partnership.

5.12

No Limited Partner (other than the General Partner or any officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner, in its capacity as such, if such Person shall also be a Limited Partner) shall take part in the management or control of the activities and affairs of the Partnership or have any right or authority to act for or bind the Partnership or to take part or in any way to interfere in the conduct or management of the Partnership or to vote on matters relating to the Partnership, to have access to the books and records of the Partnership or any other member of the BREP Group other than as required by applicable Law or as set forth in this Agreement. The transaction of any such activities or affairs by the General Partner or any officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner, in its capacity as such, shall not affect, impair or eliminate the limitations on the liability of the Limited Partners under this Agreement.

7.3	Outside Activities

Subject to the provisions of Section 5.4, which shall continue to be applicable to the Persons referred to therein, regardless of whether such Persons shall also be Limited Partners, any Limited Partner shall be entitled to and may have interests and engage in activities in addition to activities relating to the Partnership, including interests and activities in direct competition with the Partnership or BRELP.

Following each taxable year of the Partnership, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to supply each Person that was a Partner at any time during such taxable year with a Schedule K-1 (or equivalent) within ninety (90) days after the close of such taxable year. In addition, following each taxable year of the Partnership, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Partnership to, upon the request of any Person that was a Partner at any time during such taxable year, provide to such Partner information as to whether any non-U.S. corporation that is a Subsidiary of the Partnership and that is not itself also a Subsidiary of a non-U.S. corporation that is a Subsidiary of the Partnership is a "passive foreign investment company" within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code; provided, that the General Partner and the Partnership shall not be required to comply with this sentence with respect to any taxable year during which the Partnership makes such information available in a Form 20-F or other publicly available document filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The General Partner shall also, where reasonably possible and applicable, prepare and send such Persons such other information required by any non-U.S. Limited Partner for U.S. federal income tax reporting purposes.

9.1.2.

Within ninety (90) days following the end of each fiscal year of the Partnership and within the ninety (90) days after the date of the dissolution of the Partnership, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to supply each Person that was a Partner at any time during such fiscal year and who is required to file an income tax return under the Income Tax Act (or, in the case of a Partner that is a partnership, that has one or more partners who is required to file an income tax return under the Income Tax Act) all necessary income tax reporting information with respect to such Partner's income from the Partnership for such fiscal year.

9.2	Preparation of Tax Returns

The General Partner shall arrange for the preparation and timely filing of all returns of Partnership income, gains, deductions, losses and other items required of the Partnership for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes and, where applicable, Canadian federal income tax purposes.

Subject to the provisions hereof, the General Partner is designated the Tax Matters Partner (as defined in Section 6231 of the Code) and the designated partner for the purposes of the Income Tax Act including subsections 152(1.4) to 152(1.8) thereof, and is authorized and required to represent the Partnership (at the Partnership's expense) in connection with all examinations of the Partnership's affairs by tax authorities, including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend Partnership funds for professional services and costs associated therewith. Each Partner agrees to cooperate with the General Partner and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably required by the General Partner to conduct such proceedings.

9.5	Withholding

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner is authorized to take any action that it determines in its sole discretion to be necessary or appropriate to cause the Partnership to comply with any withholding requirements established under the Code, the Income Tax Act or any other national, federal, state or local Law including pursuant to Chapters 3 and 4 of Subtitle A of the Code. To the extent that the Partnership is required to withhold and pay over to any taxing authority any amount resulting from the allocation or distribution of income to any Partner, the amount withheld shall be treated as a distribution of cash or as a general expense of the Partnership pursuant to Section 4.6 in the amount of such withholding from such Partner. To the extent an amount otherwise payable to a member of the BREP Group is required to be withheld and paid over to any taxing authority, and such withheld amount is attributable to a Partner's ownership of Units, then such withheld amount shall be treated as a distribution of cash to such Partner or as a general expense of the Partnership pursuant to Section 4.6 in the amount of such withholding.

9.6	Election to be Treated as a Corporation

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the General Partner determines in its sole discretion that it is no longer in the best interests of the Partnership to continue as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the General Partner may elect to treat the Partnership as an association or as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal (and applicable state) income tax purposes.

Upon the Partnership's issuance of Partnership Interests of all or any classes to any Person, the Partnership shall issue one or more Certificates in the name of such Person evidencing the number of such Partnership Interests being so issued. Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Partnership by the General Partner. No Certificate evidencing the issuance of Partnership Interests shall be valid for any purpose until it has been countersigned by the Transfer Agent, provided that if the General Partner elects to issue Partnership Interests (including Units) in global form, the Certificates of such Partnership Interests (including Units) shall be valid upon receipt of a certificate from the Transfer Agent certifying that the Partnership Interests have been duly registered in accordance with the directions of the Partnership.

10.1.2.

Notwithstanding Section 10.1.1, Partnership Interests (including Units) of any class may be traded through an electronic settlement system and held in Uncertificated form in accordance with such arrangements as may from time to time be permitted by any statute, regulation, order, instrument or rule in force affecting the Partnership. Amendments to any provisions of this Agreement which may be necessary or expedient for this purpose may be made by the General Partner in its sole discretion but will not be deemed to vary the rights of any class of Partnership Interests (including Units).

Certificates may bear any legends required by applicable Law or otherwise determined to be appropriate by the General Partner.

10.2	Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates

10.2.2.

The General Partner on behalf of the Partnership shall execute, and upon its request the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver a new Certificate in place of any Certificate previously issued if the Record Holder of the Certificate:

10.2.2.1

makes proof by affidavit, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, that a previously issued Certificate has been lost, destroyed or stolen;

10.2.2.2

requests the issuance of a new Certificate before the Partnership has notice that the Certificate has been acquired by a purchaser for value in good faith and without notice of an adverse claim;

10.2.2.3

if requested by the General Partner, delivers to the Partnership a bond, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, with surety or sureties and with fixed or open penalty as the General Partner may reasonably direct, in its sole discretion, to indemnify the Partnership, the General Partner and the Transfer Agent against any claim that may be made on account of the alleged loss, destruction or theft of the Certificate; and

10.2.2.4

satisfies any other reasonable requirements imposed by the General Partner.

10.2.3.

If a Record Holder fails to notify the Partnership within a reasonable time after the holder has notice of the loss, destruction or theft of a Certificate, and a transfer of the Partnership Interests represented by the Certificate is registered before the Partnership, the General Partner or the Transfer Agent receives such notification, the Record Holder shall be precluded from making any claim against the Partnership, the General Partner or the Transfer Agent for such transfer or for a new Certificate.

10.2.4.

As a condition to the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 10.2, the General Partner may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any Tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) reasonably connected therewith.

10.3	Record Holder

In accordance with Section 10.5.2, the Partnership shall be entitled to recognize the Record Holder as the Limited Partner with respect to any Units and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Units on the part of any other Person, whether or not the Partnership shall have actual or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing, when a Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation or an agent of any of the foregoing) is acting as nominee, agent or in some other representative capacity for another Person in acquiring and/or holding Units, as between the Partnership on the one hand and such other Person on the other hand, such representative Person shall be the Record Holder of such Partnership Interest. A Person may become a Record Holder without the consent or approval of any Partner.

10.4	Transfer Generally

10.4.1.

The term "transfer", when used in this Agreement with respect to a Partnership Interest, shall be deemed to refer to a transaction (i) by which the General Partner assigns its General Partner Unit to another Person or (ii) by which the holder of a Unit assigns such Unit to another Person, and includes a sale, assignment, gift, pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation, mortgage, exchange or any other disposition by Law or otherwise.

10.4.2.

No Partnership Interest shall be transferred, in whole or in part, except in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 10. Any transfer or purported transfer of a Partnership Interest not made in accordance with this Article 10 shall be null and void.

10.4.3.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent the parent entity of the General Partner from disposing of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the General Partner.

10.5	Registration and Transfer of Units

10.5.1.

The General Partner shall cause to be kept at its registered office in Bermuda on behalf of the Partnership a register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe and subject to the provisions of Section 10.5.2, the General Partner will provide for the registration and transfer of Units. The Transfer Agent is hereby appointed registrar and transfer agent for the purpose of registering Units and transfers of such Units as herein provided. The Partnership shall not recognize transfers of Certificates representing Units unless such transfers are effected in the manner described in this Section 10.5. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Units evidenced by a Certificate, and subject to the provisions of Section 10.5.2, the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership shall execute and deliver, and the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver, in the name of the holder or the designated transferee or transferees, as required pursuant to the holder's instructions, one or more new Certificates evidencing the same aggregate number of Units as was evidenced by the Certificate so surrendered.

10.5.2.

Except as otherwise provided in Article 11, the Partnership shall not recognize any transfer of Units until the Certificates evidencing such Units are surrendered for registration of transfer.

10.5.3.

Subject to (i) the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.5; (ii) Section 10.3; (iii) Section 10.7; (iv) with respect to any class or series of Units, the provisions of any statement of designations or amendment to this Agreement establishing such class or series; (v) any contractual provisions binding on any Limited Partner; and (vi) provisions of applicable Law including the Limited Partnership Act and the Exempted Partnerships Act, Units shall be freely transferable.

10.5.4.

The General Partner shall have power to implement such arrangements as it may, in its sole discretion, determine fit in order for any class of Units to be admitted to settlement by means of any clearing system.

10.5.5.

The General Partner may, in its sole discretion and without giving a reason, refuse to register a transfer of any Unit in Certificated form or Uncertificated form (subject to Section 10.5.6) which is not fully paid or on which the Partnership has a lien.

10.5.6.

The General Partner may only decline to register a transfer of an Uncertificated Unit in the circumstances set out in this Agreement, the listing rules made by any Securities Exchange and the regulations of any clearing system implemented pursuant to Section 10.5.4, or as otherwise required by applicable Law.

10.6	Transfer of General Partner Unit

10.6.1.

The General Partner may transfer its General Partner Unit to a single transferee (including upon its merger, consolidation or other combination into any other Person or the transfer by it of all or substantially all of its assets to another Person) if, but only if, (i) the transferee is an Affiliate of the general partner of BRELP (or the transfer is being made concurrently with a transfer of the general partnership units of BRELP to an Affiliate of the transferee), (ii) the transferee agrees to assume and be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and (iii) the Partnership receives an Opinion of Counsel (delivered by counsel acceptable to the Independent Committee) that such transfer (or merger, consolidation or combination) would not result in the loss of limited liability of any Limited Partner or of any limited partner of BRELP or cause the Partnership or BRELP to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise to be taxed as an entity for tax purposes; provided, however, that no such opinion shall be required in connection with an election described in Section 9.6 made by the General Partner or in connection with a transfer following such an election.

10.6.2.

In the case of a transfer pursuant to this Section 10.6, the transferee or successor (as the case may be) shall be admitted to the Partnership as the General Partner immediately after the transfer of the General Partner Unit, and the Partnership shall continue without dissolution.

10.6.3.

The Parties agree that no transfer under this Section 10.6 will occur without the notification to and approval of the relevant Bermuda regulatory authorities in accordance with Bermuda law.

10.7	Restrictions on Transfers

Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 10, no transfer of any Partnership Interest shall be made if such transfer would (a) violate the then applicable securities Laws or rules and regulations of any securities commission of any jurisdiction or any other Governmental Authorities with jurisdiction over such transfer, (b) result in the taxation of the Partnership as an association taxable as a corporation or otherwise subject the Partnership to entity-level taxation for tax purposes (in either case, for U.S. tax purposes, to the extent not otherwise elected by the General Partner pursuant to Section 9.6 to be treated as such) or (c) affect the Partnership's existence or qualification as an exempted limited partnership under the Limited Partnership Act or Exempted Partnerships Act.

ARTICLE 11

11.1.2.

The transfer of any Unit and/or the admission of any new Limited Partner to the Partnership will not constitute any amendment to this Agreement. A Person may become a Record Holder without the consent or approval of any of the Partners. A Person may not become a Limited Partner without acquiring a Unit.

11.1.3.

Any transfer of a Unit shall not entitle the transferee to share in the profits and losses, to receive distributions, to receive allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit or any similar item or to any other rights to which the transferor was entitled until the transferee becomes a Limited Partner and a party to this Agreement pursuant to this Article 11.

11.2	Admission of Successor General Partner

A successor general partner approved pursuant to Section 12.1 or the transferee of or successor to the General Partner's General Partner Unit pursuant to Section 10.6 shall be admitted to the Partnership as the general partner, subject to the requirements of the Limited Partnership Act and the Exempted Partnerships Act, effective immediately prior to the withdrawal of the General Partner pursuant to Section 12.1 or immediately after the transfer of the General Partner's General Partner Unit pursuant to Section 10.6. Any such successor shall conduct the activities and affairs of the Partnership without the Partnership being dissolved. In each case, the admission shall be subject to the successor general partner executing and delivering to the Partnership an acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and such other documents or instruments as may be required to effect the admission. Any such successor is hereby authorized to and shall, subject to the terms hereof, conduct the activities and affairs of the Partnership without the Partnership being dissolved and shall be deemed to ratify and confirm all contracts, agreements, assignments and instruments entered into on behalf of the Partnership, in accordance with this Agreement, including the granting of any charge or security interest over the Assets and the assumption of any indebtedness in connection with the affairs of the Partnership.

ARTICLE 12

WITHDRAWAL OF PARTNERS

12.1	Withdrawal of the General Partner

12.1.1.

The General Partner shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Partnership upon the occurrence of any one of the following events (each such event herein referred to as an "Event of Withdrawal"):

12.1.1.1

the General Partner voluntarily withdraws from the Partnership by giving 180 days advance written notice to the other Partners;

12.1.1.2

the General Partner transfers all of its rights as General Partner pursuant to Section 10.6;

12.1.1.3

the General Partner (a) makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (b) files a voluntary bankruptcy petition; (c) files a petition or answer seeking for itself a reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any Law; (d) files an answer or other pleading admitting or failing to contest the material allegations of a petition filed against the General Partner in a proceeding of the type described in Sections (a)-(c) of this Section 12.1.1.3; or (e) seeks, consents to or acquiesces in the appointment of a trustee, receiver or liquidator of the General Partner or of all or any substantial part of its properties;

12.1.1.4

a final and non-appealable judgment is entered by a court with appropriate jurisdiction ruling that the General Partner is bankrupt or insolvent, or a final and non-appealable order for relief is entered by a court with appropriate jurisdiction against the General Partner, in each case under any federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency Laws as now or hereafter in effect; or

12.1.1.5

a certificate of dissolution or its equivalent is filed for the General Partner, or 90 days expire after the date of notice to the General Partner of revocation of its charter without a reinstatement of its charter, under the Laws of its state of incorporation.

12.1.2.

If an Event of Withdrawal specified in Sections 12.1.1.3, 12.1.1.4 or 12.1.1.5 occurs or is expected, the withdrawing General Partner shall give notice as soon as reasonably practicable to the Limited Partners. The Partners hereby agree that only the Events of Withdrawal described in this Section 12.1 shall result in the withdrawal of the General Partner from the Partnership.

12.1.3.

Withdrawal of the General Partner from the Partnership upon the occurrence of an Event of Withdrawal shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement under the following circumstances: (i) the General Partner voluntarily withdraws by giving at least 90 days' advance notice to the Limited Partners, such withdrawal to take effect on the date specified in such notice; or (ii) at any time that the General Partner ceases to be a general partner pursuant to Section 12.1.1.2.

12.1.4.

If the General Partner gives a notice of withdrawal pursuant to Sections 12.1.1.1 or 12.1.2, holders of at least 66⅔% of the voting power of the Outstanding Equity Units may, prior to the effective date of such withdrawal, elect a successor general partner. If, prior to the effective date of the General Partner's withdrawal, a successor is not selected by the holders of Equity Units as provided herein or the Partnership does not receive a Withdrawal Opinion of Counsel, the Partnership shall be dissolved in accordance with Article 13. Any such successor general partner shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11.2.

12.2	Interest of Departing General Partner and Successor General Partner

12.2.1.

In the event of withdrawal of the General Partner under circumstances where such withdrawal does not violate this Agreement, the Departing General Partner shall, at its option exercisable prior to the effective date of the departure of such Departing General Partner, promptly receive from its successor in exchange for its General Partner Unit an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the General Partner Unit, such amount to be determined and payable as of the effective date of its departure. If the General Partner withdraws under circumstances where such withdrawal violates this Agreement, its successor shall have the option described in the immediately preceding sentence, and the Departing General Partner shall not have such option.

12.2.2.

For purposes of this Section 12.2.2, the fair market value of the Departing General Partner Unit shall be determined by agreement between the Departing General Partner and its successor or, failing agreement within 30 days after the effective date of such Departing General Partner's departure, by an independent investment banking firm or other independent expert selected by the Departing General Partner and its successor, which, in turn, may rely on other experts and the determination of which shall be conclusive as to such matter. If such parties cannot agree upon one independent investment banking firm or other independent expert within 45 days after the effective date of such departure, then the Departing General Partner shall designate an independent investment banking firm or other independent expert, the Departing General Partner's successor shall designate an independent investment banking firm or other independent expert, and such firms or experts shall mutually select a third independent investment banking firm or independent expert, which shall determine the fair market value of the General Partner Unit. In making its determination, such independent investment banking firm or other independent expert shall consider the then current trading price of Equity Units on any Securities Exchange on which Equity Units are then listed, the value of the Partnership's Assets, the rights and obligations of the General Partner and other factors it may deem relevant.

12.2.3.

If the General Partner Unit is not acquired in the manner set forth in Section 12.2.1, the Departing General Partner shall become a Limited Partner and the General Partner Unit shall be converted into an Equity Unit pursuant to a valuation made by an investment banking firm or other independent expert selected pursuant to Section 12.2.1, without reduction in such Partnership Interest (but subject to proportionate dilution by reason of the admission of its successor).

12.3	Withdrawal of Limited Partners

No Limited Partner shall have any right to withdraw from the Partnership; provided, however, that when a transferee of a Limited Partner's Units becomes a Record Holder, such transferring Limited Partner shall, subject to Section 4.4.2, cease to be a Limited Partner with respect to the Units so transferred.

ARTICLE 13

TERMINATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP

13.1

General

Subject to the provisions of this Article 13, the Partnership shall terminate on the earlier to occur of:

13.1.1.

the date on which all Assets have been disposed of or otherwise realized by the Partnership and the proceeds of such disposals or realizations have been distributed to the Partners;

13.1.2.

the service of notice by the General Partner, with the approval of a majority of the members of the Independent Committee that in the opinion of the General Partner the coming into force of any Law or binding authority renders illegal or impracticable the continuation of the Partnership; or

13.1.3.

the election of the General Partner, with the approval of a majority of the members of the Independent Committee, if the Partnership, as determined by the General Partner, based upon an Opinion of Counsel, is required to register as an "investment company" under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or similar legislation in other jurisdictions.

13.2	Incapacity

13.2.1.

Subject to Section 13.2.2, the Partnership shall be dissolved on the following:

13.2.1.1

the date that the General Partner withdraws from the Partnership without the appointment of a successor pursuant to Section 12.1 having been implemented; or

13.2.1.2

the date on which any court of competent jurisdiction enters a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership or an order to wind up or liquidate the General Partner without the appointment of a successor pursuant to Section 12.1 having been implemented.

13.2.2.

The Partnership shall be reconstituted and continue without dissolution, if within 30 days of the date of dissolution (and provided that a notice of dissolution with respect to the Partnership has not been provided to the Bermuda Monetary Authority) under this Section 13.2, a successor general partner appointed pursuant to this Agreement executes a transfer deed pursuant to which the new general partner assumes the rights and undertakes the obligations of the original general partner, but only if the Partnership receives an Opinion of Counsel that the admission of the new general partner will not result in the loss of limited liability of any Limited Partner.

13.3	Liquidation

Upon dissolution of the Partnership, unless the Partnership is continued under an election to reconstitute and continue the Partnership pursuant to Section 13.2, the General Partner shall act, or cause one or more Persons to act, as the Liquidator. The Liquidator (if other than the General Partner) shall be entitled to receive such compensation for its services as may be approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee. If the General Partner is acting as the Liquidator, it shall not be entitled to receive any additional compensation for acting in such capacity. The Liquidator shall agree not to resign at any time without 15 days' prior notice and (if other than the General Partner) may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by notice of removal approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee. Upon dissolution, removal or resignation of the Liquidator, a successor and substitute Liquidator (who shall have and succeed to all rights, powers and duties of the original Liquidator) shall within 30 days thereafter be approved by a majority of the members of the Independent Committee. The right to approve a successor or substitute Liquidator in the manner provided herein shall be deemed to refer also to any such successor or substitute Liquidator approved in the manner herein provided. Except as expressly provided in this Section 13.3, the Liquidator approved in the manner provided herein shall have and may exercise, without further authorization or consent of any of the parties hereto, all of the powers conferred upon the General Partner under the terms of this Agreement (but subject to all of the applicable limitations, contractual and otherwise, upon the exercise of such powers) to the extent necessary or desirable in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator to carry out the duties and functions of the Liquidator hereunder for and during such period of time as shall be reasonably required in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator to complete the winding-up and liquidation of the Partnership as provided for herein. The Liquidator shall proceed to dispose of the Assets, discharge its liabilities, and otherwise wind up its affairs in such manner and over such period as the Liquidator determines to be in the best interest of the Partners, subject to applicable Laws and the following:

13.3.1.

the Assets may be disposed of by public or private sale or by distribution in kind to one or more Partners on such terms as the Liquidators and such Partners or Partners may agree; if any property is distributed in kind, the Partner receiving the property shall be deemed for purposes of Section 13.3.3 to have received cash equal to its fair market value; and contemporaneously therewith, appropriate cash distributions must be made to the other Partners; the Liquidator may distribute the Assets, in whole or in part, in kind if it determines that a sale would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners;

13.3.2.

liabilities of the Partnership, including amounts owed to the Liquidator as compensation for serving in such capacity (subject to the terms of Section 13.3) and amounts to Partners otherwise than in respect of their distribution rights under Section 4.6, shall be discharged; with respect to any liability that is contingent, conditional or unmatured or is otherwise not yet due and payable, the Liquidator shall either settle such claim for such amount as it thinks appropriate or establish a reserve of cash or other assets to provide for its payment; when paid, any unused portion of the reserve shall be distributed as additional liquidation proceeds; and

13.3.3.

all property and all cash in excess of that required to discharge liabilities of the Partnership pursuant to Section 13.3.2 shall be distributed to the Preferred Unitholders in priority to the other Partners, up to the amount of the liquidation entitlement of the Preferred Units as set out in Schedule A, and any remaining amount available for distribution will be distributed to the Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests, in each case as of the date chosen by the Liquidator. In the event that the property and cash to be distributed to the Preferred Unitholders on the liquidation of the Partnership is not sufficient to pay the full amount of the liquidation entitlement of the Preferred Units as set out in Schedule A for each Preferred Unit then Outstanding, the amount available for distribution shall be paid to the Preferred Unitholders pro rata in proportion to their respective relative percentage of Preferred Units held (determined by reference to the aggregate value of the issue price of the Preferred Units held by each Preferred Unitholder relative to the aggregate value of the issue price of all Preferred Units then Outstanding). Such distributions shall be made by the end of the taxable year in which the liquidation of the Partnership occurs (or, if later, within 90 days after the date of such liquidation).

13.4	Distributions in Kind

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.3, which require the liquidation of the Assets, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, if prior to or upon dissolution of the Partnership, the Liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners, the Liquidator may, in its absolute discretion, defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any Assets except those necessary to satisfy liabilities of the Partnership (including those to Partners as creditors) and/or distribute to the Partners or to specific classes of Partners, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.3, undivided interests in such Assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for liquidation. Any such distributions in kind shall be made only if, in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator, such distributions in kind are in the best interest of the Limited Partners, and shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and management of such properties as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable and to any agreements governing the operation of such properties at such time. The Liquidator shall determine the fair market value of any property distributed in kind using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt.

13.5	Cancellation of Certificate of Limited Partnership

Upon the completion of the distribution of Partnership cash and property as provided in Sections 13.3 and 13.4, the Partnership shall be terminated and the Certificate of Limited Partnership and Certificate of Exempted Limited Partnership and all qualifications of the Partnership as a foreign limited partnership in jurisdictions other than Bermuda shall be cancelled and such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Partnership shall be taken.

13.6	Reasonable Time for Winding Up

A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the activities and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of its Assets pursuant to Section 13.3 in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up, and the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect between the Partners during the period of liquidation.

13.7	Return of Capital

The General Partner shall not be personally liable for, and shall have no obligation to contribute or loan any monies or property to the Partnership to enable it to effectuate, the return of the Capital Contributions of the Limited Partners, or any portion thereof, it being expressly understood that any such return shall be made solely from Assets.

13.8	Waiver of Partition

Each Partner hereby waives any right to partition of the Partnership property.

14.3.2.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 14.1 and 14.2, no amendment to this Agreement may (i) enlarge the obligations of any Limited Partner without its consent except if the same occurs as a result of any amendment approved pursuant to Section 14.3.3, or (ii) enlarge the obligations, restrict in any way any action by or rights of or reduce in any way the amounts distributable, reimbursable or otherwise payable by the Partnership to the General Partner or any of its Affiliates without the consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in its sole discretion.

For purposes of determining the Limited Partners entitled to notice of and participation in or to vote at a meeting of the Limited Partners or to provide consents or give approvals to any action by the Partnership as provided in Section 14.11 without a meeting as provided in Section 14.10, the General Partner may set a Record Date, which shall not be less than 10 nor more than 60 days before (a) the date of the meeting (unless such requirement conflicts with any applicable Law or rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of any Securities Exchange, in which case the more stringent requirement shall govern) or (b) in the event that consents or approvals to any action by the Partnership are sought without a meeting, the date by which Limited Partners are requested in writing by the General Partner to provide such consents or approvals.

14.7	Adjournment

When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting and a new Record Date need not be fixed if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, unless such adjournment shall be for more than 45 days. At the adjourned meeting, the Partnership may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 45 days or if a new Record Date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting and/or the new Record Date, as applicable, shall be given in accordance with this Article 14.

14.8

Quorum

Twenty-five percent of the Outstanding Units of the class or classes for which a meeting has been called (including Units held by the General Partner) represented in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of Limited Partners of such class or classes unless any such action by the Limited Partners requires approval by Limited Partners holding a greater percentage of the voting power of such Units, in which case the quorum shall be such greater percentage. At any meeting of the Limited Partners, or any class or series thereof, duly called and held in accordance with this Agreement at which a quorum is present, the act of Limited Partners holding Outstanding Units that in the aggregate represent a majority of the Outstanding Units entitled to vote and be present in person or by proxy at such meeting shall be deemed to constitute the act of all Limited Partners or any class or series thereof, unless a greater or different percentage is required with respect to such action under the provisions of this Agreement, in which case the act of the Limited Partners holding Outstanding Units that in the aggregate represent at least such greater or different percentage shall be required. The Limited Partners present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough Limited Partners to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by the required percentage of the voting power of Outstanding Units specified in this Agreement (including Outstanding Units deemed owned by the General Partner). In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of Limited Partners may be adjourned from time to time by the affirmative vote of Limited Partners holding at least a majority of the voting power of the Outstanding Units entitled to vote at such meeting (including Outstanding Units deemed owned by the General Partner) represented either in person or by proxy, but no other business may be transacted, except as provided in Section 14.7.

14.9	Conduct of Meeting

The General Partner shall have full power and authority concerning the manner of conducting any meeting of the Limited Partners or solicitation of consents or approvals in writing, including the determination of Persons entitled to vote, the existence of a quorum, the satisfaction of the requirements of Section 14.4, the conduct of voting, the validity and effect of any proxies and the determination of any controversies, votes or challenges arising in connection with or during the meeting or voting. The General Partner shall designate a Person to serve as chairman of any meeting and shall further designate a Person to take the minutes of any meeting, in either case including a Partner or a director or officer of the General Partner. All minutes shall be kept with the records of the Partnership maintained by the General Partner. The General Partner may make such other regulations consistent with applicable Law and this Agreement as it may deem advisable concerning the conduct of any meeting of the Limited Partners or solicitation of approvals in writing, including regulations in regard to the appointment of proxies, the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes and approvals, the submission and examination of proxies and other evidence of the right to vote, and the revocation of consents or approvals in writing.

14.10

Action Without a Meeting

If authorized by the General Partner, any action that may be taken at a meeting of the Limited Partners may be taken without a meeting if (i) written consent to such action is solicited by or on behalf of the General Partner, and (ii) an approval in writing setting forth the action to be taken is signed by Limited Partners owning not less than the minimum percentage of the Outstanding Units that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all the applicable Limited Partners were present and voted. Prompt notice of the taking of action by written consent or without a meeting shall be given to the Limited Partners who have not approved in writing. The General Partner may specify that any written ballot from Limited Partners for the purpose of taking any action without a meeting shall be returned to the Partnership within the time period, which shall be not less than 20 days, specified by the General Partner. If a ballot returned to the Partnership does not vote all of the Units held by the Limited Partner, the Partnership shall be deemed to have failed to receive a ballot for the Units that were not voted.

14.11

Voting and Other Rights

14.11.1.

Only those holders of Units of the class or series for which a meeting has been called who are Record Holders on the Record Date set pursuant to Section 14.6 (and also subject to the limitations contained in the definition of "Outstanding") shall be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, a meeting of Partners or to act with respect to matters as to which the holders of the Outstanding Units have the right to vote or to act. Notwithstanding the definition of "Limited Partner," all references in this Agreement to votes, consents or approvals of, or other acts that may be taken by, the Outstanding Units shall be deemed to be references to the votes, consents, approvals or acts of the Record Holders of such Outstanding Units.

14.11.2.

Each Outstanding Unit shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote for the purposes of any approval at a meeting of Limited Partners or by written consent.

14.11.3.

With respect to Units that are held for a Person's account by another Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation, or an agent of any of the foregoing), in whose name such Units are registered, such other Person shall, in exercising the voting or consent rights in respect of such Units on any matter, and unless the arrangement between such Persons provides otherwise, vote such Units in favor of, and at the direction of, the Person who is the beneficial owner, and the Partnership shall be entitled to assume it is so acting without further inquiry. The provisions of this Section 14.11.3 (as well as all other provisions of this Agreement) are subject to the provisions of Section 10.3.

During the Initial Fixed Rate Period, the Series 7 Distributions will be payable quarterly on the last day of January, April, July and October of each year (each, a "Distribution Payment Date") at the Initial Fixed Distribution Rate.

- 10 -

4.	Redemption at the Option of the Partnership

The Partnership may not redeem any of the Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units prior to January 31, 2021. On January 31, 2021 and on January 31 every five years thereafter (each, a "Series 7 Reclassification Date"), the Partnership may, subject to applicable law, meeting the solvency requirements under Bermuda law and to the provisions described under Section 6 below, upon giving notice as hereinafter provided, at its option, without the consent of the Holders redeem all, or any part, of the then Outstanding Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units by the payment of an amount in cash for each Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit so redeemed equal to C$25.00 per Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Unit, together with all accrued and unpaid Series 7 Distributions up to but excluding the date of payment or distribution (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership) (the "Redemption Price").

If less than all of the then Outstanding Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units are at any time to be redeemed, then the particular Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed shall be selected on a pro rata basis disregarding fractions or, if the Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units are at such time listed on such exchange, with the consent of the Toronto Stock Exchange, in such manner as the General Partner in its sole discretion may, by resolution determine.

- 11 -

The Partnership shall give notice in writing not less than 25 days nor more than 60 days prior to the applicable Series 7 Reclassification Date of its intention to redeem such Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to each person who at the date of giving such notice is the Holder of Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed. Any such notice shall be validly and effectively given on the date on which it is sent and such notice shall be given and sent by posting the same in a postage paid envelope addressed to each Holder of Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed at the last address of such Holder as it appears on the securities register of the Partnership, or in the case of joint Holders, to the address of that one whose name appears first in the securities register of the Partnership as one of such joint Holders or, in the event of the address of any Holder not so appearing, then to the address of such Holder last known to the Partnership, provided that the accidental failure or omission to give any such notices as aforesaid to one or more of such Holders shall not affect the validity of the redemption as to the other Holders to be redeemed. Such notice shall set out the number of such Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units held by the person to whom it is addressed which are to be redeemed and the Redemption Price and shall also set out the date on which the redemption is to take place. On and after the date so specified for redemption, the Partnership shall pay or cause to be paid to the Holders to be redeemed the Redemption Price on presentation and surrender, at any place within Canada designated by such notice, of the certificate or certificates for such Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so called for redemption, subject to the provisions of Section 17. Such payment (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership) shall be made by cheque payable at par at any branch in Canada of the Partnership's bankers for the time being or by any other reasonable means the Partnership deems desirable and shall be a full and complete discharge of the Partnership's obligation to pay the Redemption Price owed to the Holders of Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so called for redemption unless the cheque is not honoured when presented for payment. From and after the date specified in any such notice, the Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption shall cease to be entitled to Series 7 Distributions and the Holders thereof shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof, except to receive the Redemption Price therefor, provided that if payment of the Redemption Price shall not be duly made by the Partnership on or before the redemption date, the Partnership shall forthwith thereafter return the Holder's deposited unit certificate or certificates to the Holder. At any time after notice of redemption is given as aforesaid, the Partnership shall have the right to deposit the Redemption Price of any or all Series 7 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership), or such part thereof as at the time of deposit has not been claimed by the Holders entitled thereto, with any chartered bank or banks or with any trust company or trust companies in Canada named in the notice of redemption to the credit of a special account or accounts in trust for the respective Holders of such units, to be paid to them respectively upon surrender to such bank or banks or trust company or trust companies of the certificate or certificates representing the same, subject to the provisions of Section 17. Upon such deposit or deposits being made, such units shall be deemed to be redeemed on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption. After the Partnership has made a deposit as aforesaid with respect to any units, the Holders thereof shall not, from and after the redemption date, be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof and the rights of the Holders thereof shall be limited to receiving a proportion of the amounts so deposited applicable to such units, without interest. Any interest allowed on such deposit shall belong to the Partnership. Subject to applicable law, redemption monies that are represented by a cheque which has not been presented to the Partnership's bankers for payment or that otherwise remain unclaimed (including monies held in deposit as provided for above) for a period of two years from the date specified for redemption shall be forfeited to the Partnership.

Any such notice shall be validly and effectively given on the date on which it is sent and such notice shall be given and sent by posting the same in a postage paid envelope addressed to each Holder of Series 8 Preferred Limited Partnership Units to be redeemed at the last address of such Holder as it appears on the securities register of the Partnership, or in the case of joint Holders, to the address of that one whose name appears first in the securities register of the Partnership as one of such joint Holders or, in the event of the address of any Holder not so appearing, then to the address of such Holder last known to the Partnership, provided that the accidental failure or omission to give any such notices as aforesaid to one or more of such Holders shall not affect the validity of the redemption as to the other Holders to be redeemed. Such notice shall set out the number of such Series 8 Preferred Limited Partnership Units held by the person to whom it is addressed which are to be redeemed and the Redemption Price and shall also set out the date on which the redemption is to take place.

Such payment (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership) shall be made by cheque payable at par at any branch in Canada of the Partnership's bankers for the time being or by any other reasonable means the Partnership deems desirable and shall be a full and complete discharge of the Partnership's obligation to pay the Redemption Price owed to the Holders of Series 8 Preferred Limited Partnership Units so called for redemption unless the cheque is not honoured when presented for payment. From and after the date specified in any such notice, the Series 8 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption shall cease to be entitled to Series 8 Distributions and the Holders thereof shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof, except to receive the Redemption Price therefor, provided that if payment of the Redemption Price shall not be duly made by the Partnership on or before the redemption date, the Partnership shall forthwith thereafter return the Holder's deposited unit certificate or certificates to the Holder. At any time after notice of redemption is given as aforesaid, the Partnership shall have the right to deposit the Redemption Price of any or all Series 8 Preferred Limited Partnership Units called for redemption (less any tax required to be deducted and withheld by the Partnership), or such part thereof as at the time of deposit has not been claimed by the Holders entitled thereto, with any chartered bank or banks or with any trust company or trust companies in Canada named in the notice of redemption to the credit of a special account or accounts in trust for the respective Holders of such units, to be paid to them respectively upon surrender to such bank or banks or trust company or trust companies of the certificate or certificates representing the same, subject to the provisions of Section 17. Upon such deposit or deposits being made, such units shall be deemed to be redeemed on the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption. After the Partnership has made a deposit as aforesaid with respect to any units, the Holders thereof shall not, from and after the redemption date, be entitled to exercise any of the rights of unitholders in respect thereof and the rights of the Holders thereof shall be limited to receiving a proportion of the amounts so deposited applicable to such units, without interest. Any interest allowed on such deposit shall belong to the Partnership. Subject to applicable law, redemption monies that are represented by a cheque which has not been presented to the Partnership's bankers for payment or that otherwise remain unclaimed (including monies held in deposit as provided for above) for a period of two years from the date specified for redemption shall be forfeited to the Partnership.
