(a) “Aggregate Protected Amount Per Protected Partner” shall mean, for each Protected Partner, the amount set forth in Annex A with respect to such Protected Partner.

(b) “Built In Gain” shall mean, with respect to each Protected Property, an amount equal to the greater of (i) the excess of the agreed upon value of such Protected Property set forth on Annex C hereto and the tax basis of such Protected Property on the Closing Date (as estimated on the date hereof and as such Annex shall be updated not later than 30 days after the Closing Date by the Operating Partnership in reasonable consultation with the Contributor), and (ii) the amount of “Built In Gain” reflected on Annex E.

(c) “Contributor Parties” shall mean, collectively, the Contributor, Glenborough GP, and certain limited partners and preferred limited partners of the Contributor listed on the signature page to this Agreement.

(d) “Guarantee Opportunity” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 4(a).

(e) “Indirect Owner” means, in the case of a Protected Partner that is an entity that is classified as a partnership or disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes, any person owning an equity interest in such Protected Partner, and, in the case of any Indirect Owner that itself is an entity that is classified as a partnership or disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes, any person owning an equity interest in such entity.

(f) “Listed Partners” shall mean the persons listed on Annex B.

(g) “Permitted Transfer” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 2(b).

(h) “Protected Partners” shall mean the persons listed on Annex A on the date of the execution of this Agreement and any person that holds Protected Units and acquired such Protected Units from a Protected Partner in a transaction in which such transferee’s adjusted basis, as determined for federal income tax purposes, is determined, in whole or in part, by reference to the adjusted basis of the Protected Partner in such Protected Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a person that acquires Protected Units as the result of the death of a Protected Partner shall not be considered a Protected Partner with respect to such Protected Units if such death results in a step-up in tax basis in such Protected Units.

(i) “Protected Period” shall mean, for each Protected Partner with respect to each Protected Property, the period identified for such Protected Partner with respect to such Protected Property in Annex A.

(j) “Protected Properties” shall mean those properties set forth on Annex C; any property acquired by the Operating Partnership, or any entity in which the Operating Partnership holds a direct or indirect interest in exchange for any such Protected Property in a transaction described in Section 2(b)(1) hereof; and any other property received by the Operating Partnership or any entity in which the Operating Partnership holds a direct or indirect interest as “substituted basis property” as defined in Code Section 7701(a)(42) with respect to any such Protected Property.

(l) “Protected Units” shall mean (1) solely those OP Units or Series A Preferred OP Units issued on the Closing Date and held by a Protected Partner and (2) any OP Units or Series A Preferred OP Units thereafter issued by the Operating Partnership to Protected Partners in exchange for Protected Units held by Protected Partners in a transaction in which the transferee’s adjusted basis in the issued OP Units or Series A Preferred OP Units is determined, in whole or in part, by reference to the transferee’s basis in Protected Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Protected Unit shall cease to constitute a Protected Unit upon (1) the death of the Protected Partner holding such Protected Unit and such death results in a step-up in the tax basis such Protected Unit or (2) the sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of such Protected Unit (other than any sale or exchange transaction in which the transferee’s basis is determined, in whole or in part, by reference to the adjusted basis of the transferor). In addition, upon the death of any Indirect Owner in a Protected Partner (if such death results in a step-up in the tax basis in such Protected Units), or upon an Indirect Owner’s sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of some or all of such Indirect Owner’s equity interest in a Protected Partner (other than any sale or exchange transaction in which the transferee’s basis is determined, in whole or in part, by reference to the adjusted basis of the transferor Indirect Owner), the Protected Units treated as held by such Protected Partner shall be reduced such that the Protected Units held by such Protected Partner shall equal the Protected Units that would have been held by the Indirect Owners in the aggregate, following such event, had the Indirect Owners directly received Protected Units in the Formation Transactions and the Indirect Owner had either directly transferred a portion of such Protected Units or died holding such Protected Units (if such death results in a step-up in the tax basis such Protected Units and taking into account all prior transactions involving the death of an Indirect Owner in such Protected Partner or the sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of an Indirect Owner’s equity interest in such Protected Partner (other than a sale or exchange transaction in which the transferee’s basis is determined in whole or in part by reference to the adjusted basis of the transferor Indirect Owner)).

(m) “Qualifying Debt” shall mean either:

(i) direct or indirect indebtedness of the Operating Partnership that is secured by property or other assets owned directly or indirectly by the Operating Partnership, provided that (x) such indebtedness is the most senior indebtedness secured by such property or other assets, and (y) the property or other assets securing such indebtedness have a fair market value, determined by an Appraisal (as defined in the OP Agreement) completed within two years with respect to the time a Guarantee Opportunity is offered, at least equal to 154% of the aggregate amount of all indebtedness secured by such property or other assets (or, with respect to any “bottom-dollar” guarantee, at least equal to 154% of the aggregate amount of such guarantee); or

(ii) direct indebtedness of the Operating Partnership that is not secured by any of the assets of the Operating Partnership and is a general, recourse obligation of the Operating Partnership, provided that the assets of the Operating Partnership available to satisfy such indebtedness have a fair market value (a) during any period when the Company’s (or any successor’s) equity securities are traded on a national securities exchange or interdealer quotation system, of at least 308% of the aggregate amount of indebtedness subject to

such guarantee, with the value of such assets determined based on the aggregate value of all of the Company’s (or such successor’s) publicly traded equity securities, or (b) at all other times, of at least 154% of the aggregate amount of indebtedness subject to such guarantee, as determined by an Appraisal (as defined in the OP Agreement) completed within two years with respect to the time a Guarantee Opportunity is offered;

provided, however, that notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) above, (x) the fair market value of each Property for purposes of this definition of Qualifying Debt shall not be less than its agreed upon value of such Property as of the Closing Date in lieu of its fair market value determined by an Appraisal for purposes of any guarantee executed by a Protected Partner pursuant to this Agreement within two (2) years following the Closing Date, and (y) the Existing Loans shall constitute Qualifying Debt for purposes of any guarantee executed by a Protected Partner pursuant to this Agreement within two (2) years following the Closing Date.

(n) “Tax Event” means (i) a change in law between the date hereof and the date the Operating Partnership’s income tax returns for the applicable taxable year are filed, which change in law would prevent the Operating Partnership’s tax accountants from signing such income tax returns if they reported the Guarantee Opportunity or the Formation Transactions and related distributions of OP Units in the manner required by Section 4(b) or 6(b) (applied without regard to the reference to Tax Event therein), or (ii) an audit or other challenge by the applicable taxing authority to a position taken on such income tax returns requiring the Operating Partnership to take a contrary position that is inconsistent with Section 4(b) or 6(b) (applied without regard to the reference to Tax Event therein).

Section 2 Restrictions on Dispositions of Protected Properties.

(a) Subject to Section 2(b), neither the Operating Partnership nor any entity in which the Operating Partnership holds a direct or indirect interest will consummate a sale, transfer, exchange, or other disposition of any Protected Property (a “Protected Property Disposition”) in a taxable transaction for applicable income tax purposes during the Protected Period with respect to such property or otherwise in engage in a merger or other transaction that is treated as a taxable disposition of such property for applicable income tax purposes during the Protected Period.

(b) Section 2(a) shall not apply to (1) any transaction with respect to a Protected Property, such as a transaction that qualifies as a tax-free like-kind exchange under Code Section 1031 or a tax-free contribution under Code Section 721, which would not result in the allocation of income or gain to any Protected Partner or its Indirect Owners with respect to Protected Units, or (2) the condemnation or other taking of any Protected Property by a Governmental Entity in an eminent domain proceeding or otherwise (each, a “Permitted Transfer”). In the case of a Permitted Transfer described in clause (2) of this Section 2(b), the Operating Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to structure such disposition as either a tax-free like-kind exchange under Code Section 1031 or a tax-free reinvestment of proceeds under Code Section 1033, provided that in no event shall the Operating Partnership be obligated to acquire or invest in any property that it otherwise would not have acquired or invested in.

Section 3 Indemnification for Breaches of Section 2.

(a) In the event that the Operating Partnership breaches its obligation set forth in Section 2(a) to any Protected Partner or an Indirect Owner thereof, each such Protected Partner shall receive from the Operating Partnership as damages an amount equal to the aggregate federal, state and local income taxes incurred by such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) as a result of the gain allocated to such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) with respect to Protected Units by reason of such Protected Property Disposition plus an additional amount so that, after the payment by such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) of all taxes on amounts received pursuant to this Section 3(a), such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) retains an amount equal to its total tax liability incurred as a result of the Protected Property Disposition.

The Operating Partnership shall calculate any required indemnity payment owed to a Protected Partner or Indirect Owner pursuant to this Section 3(a) and make any required payment within ninety (90) days after such breach has occurred. For purposes of the preceding sentence, (1) all income arising from a transaction or event that is treated as ordinary income under the applicable provisions of the Code and all payments under this Section 3(a) shall be treated as subject to federal, state and local income tax at an effective tax rate imposed on ordinary income of individuals residing in the city and state of residence of such Protected Partner, determined using the maximum federal rate of tax on ordinary income and the maximum state and local rates of tax on ordinary income then in effect in such city and state, (2) all income arising from a transaction or event that is treated as “unrecaptured section 1250 gain” within the meaning of Code Section 1(h)(6) with respect to such Protected Partner shall be subject to federal, state and local income tax at the effective tax rate imposed on the unrecaptured section 1250 gain of individuals residing in the city and state of residence of such Protected Partner, (3) all other income arising from the transaction or event shall be subject to federal, state, and local income tax at the effective tax rate imposed on long-term capital gains of individuals residing in the city and state of residence of such Protected Partner, determined using the maximum federal, state and local rates on long-term capital gains then in effect, (4) any amounts giving rise to a payment pursuant to this Section 3(a) will be determined assuming that the transaction or event giving rise to the Operating Partnership’s obligation to make a payment was the only transaction or event reported on the Protected Partner’s tax return (i.e., without giving effect to any loss carry forwards or other deductions attributable to such Protected Partner); provided, however, that tax effect will be given to any suspended losses of a Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) with respect to its direct or indirect investment in the Operating Partnership, (5) any amounts payable with respect to state and local income taxes shall be assumed to be 50% deductible (without limitation or phaseout) for federal income tax purposes, and (6) any amounts payable with respect to local income taxes shall be assumed to be 50% deductible (without limitation or phaseout) for state income tax purposes. In the case of a Protected Partner which is a partnership or disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes, the preceding sentence shall be applied treating each Indirect Owner of such partnership as if it were directly a Protected Partner, and in the case of a corporate Protected Partner, the preceding sentence shall be applied using the highest marginal rate of tax applicable to corporations for federal income tax purposes and state corporate income or franchise tax purposes. For purposes of computing the damages payable in the aggregate to the Protected Partners under this Section 3(a) with respect to a Protected Property Disposition, in no event shall the gain taken into account with respect to the Protected Property exceed the amount of Built In Gain with respect to such Protected Property (after subtracting from such scheduled amount any gain attributable to such scheduled amount which was previously recognized by (1) a Protected Partner upon a transfer of some or all of its Protected Units or (2) an Indirect Owner upon a transfer of some or all of such Indirect Owner’s equity interest in such Protected Partner). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount of gain with respect to any Protected Partner exceed the amount of Built In Gain allocated to that Protected Partner. If requested by the Operating Partnership, each Protected Partner shall promptly provide the Operating Partnership with any information (including information regarding Indirect Owners) reasonably requested by the Operating Partnership to enable the Operating Partnership to make such calculations or the calculations pursuant to Section 5.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the sole and exclusive rights and remedies of any Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) for a breach or violation of the covenants set forth in Section 2(a) shall be a claim for damages against the Operating Partnership, computed as set forth in Section 3(a), and no Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) shall be entitled to pursue a claim for specific performance of the covenant set forth in Section 2(a) or bring a claim against any person that acquires a Protected Property from the Operating Partnership in violation of Section 2(a).

Section 4 Obligation of Operating Partnership to Provide Debt Protection.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 4, the Operating Partnership, during the Protection Period, shall make available to each Protected Partner the opportunity (a “Guarantee Opportunity”) to have such Protected Partner or its Indirect Owners guarantee, on a “bottom-dollar” basis or otherwise, Qualifying Debt substantially in the form of the Debt Guarantee Agreement attached as Annex D-1 or Annex D-2, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Protected Partner that has an existing guarantee with respect to indebtedness of a Partnership agrees that such form of guarantee may be used in lieu of the Debt Guarantee Agreements set forth on Annex D-1 or Annex D-2, and that such form of guarantee shall constitute a Debt Guarantee Agreement for purposes of this Agreement. If a lender with respect to Qualifying Debt to be guaranteed by a Protected Partner requests that changes be made to a Debt Guarantee Agreement, the Protected Partner agrees to such requested changes, provided that such changes do not result in material additional economic risk to such Protected Partner. Any such Guarantee Opportunity will be made available to each Protected Partner in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the amount that such Protected Partner is currently able to guarantee under its existing agreement with the Contributor, which amount for each Protected Partner is listed on Annex A attached hereto as the Current Guarantee Amount Per Protected Partner; and (ii) the amount necessary to defer taxation, which amount for each Protected Partner is listed in Annex A attached hereto as the Aggregate Protected Amount Per Protected Partner. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, unless otherwise agreed by the Operating Partnership, (x) on the Closing Date, the Operating Partnership shall not be required to make more than $55,124,611 of Qualifying Debt available to limited partners or preferred limited partners of the Contributor who receive OP Units on the Closing Date; and (y) to the extent the Contributor or any limited partner or preferred limited partner of the Contributor who did not guarantee any Qualifying Debt on the Closing Date wishes to guarantee such debt subsequent to the Closing Date, the Operating Partnership shall make Qualifying Debt available to such person to guarantee, provided, however, that the total Qualifying Debt made available by the Operating Partnership to all such persons to guarantee shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the difference between $70,000,000 and the amount guaranteed at the Closing, and (b) with respect to any single limited partner the greater of the amount that such partner is currently able to guarantee under its existing agreement with the Contributor or the amount necessary to defer taxation on their receipt of interests in the Operating Partnership, and each of such additional guarantors shall become Protected Partners under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Partnership shall not be required to incur additional indebtedness in order to make a Guarantee Opportunity described in clause (y) above available to any such person, and any such failure shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement (for example, to the extent the Operating Partnership does not have sufficient Qualifying Debt for which the lender will permit a Debt Guarantee Agreement). Each Protected Partner and its Indirect Owners may allocate such Guarantee Opportunity in any manner they choose. In the event that, during the Protection Period, the Operating Partnership refinances or otherwise no longer continues to maintain any Qualifying Debt with respect to which one or more Protected Partners (or their Indirect Owners) have executed a Debt Guarantee Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Operating Partnership shall make available to each such Protected Partner or Indirect Owner a new Guarantee Opportunity to guarantee an amount of the new Qualifying Debt equal to the amount of the refinanced or repaid Qualifying Debt that was guaranteed by such Protected Partner or Indirect Owner immediately prior to the date of the refinancing or repayment pursuant to a Debt Guarantee Agreement. The Operating Partnership shall provide notice of the proposed refinancing or repayment and related Guarantee Opportunity to each affected Protected Partner at least 15 (fifteen) business days in advance of the closing of such refinancing or repayment.

(b) Neither the Operating Partnership nor the Company makes any representation or warranty to any Protected Partner or Indirect Owner that providing a guarantee entered into pursuant to Section 4(a) will be respected for federal income tax purposes as providing such Protected Partner or Indirect Owner with an allocation of any such liability for purposes of Code Section 752 or as causing such Protected Partner or Indirect Owner to be “at risk” with respect to such liability for purposes of Code Section 465, including as a result of the Lender’s acceptance or non-acceptance of such guarantee; provided, however, that absent a Tax Event, the Operating Partnership shall report debt so guaranteed as allocable for such purposes.

Section 5 Indemnification for Breaches of Section 4.

(a) In the event that the Operating Partnership breaches its obligations to a Protected Partner (or an Indirect Owner thereof) set forth in Section 4, each such Protected Partner shall receive from the Operating Partnership as damages an amount equal to the aggregate federal, state and local income taxes incurred by such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) as a result of the gain recognized by such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) by reason of such breach plus an additional amount so that, after the payment by such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) of all taxes on amounts received pursuant to this Section 5(a), such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) retains an amount equal to its total tax liability incurred as a result of such breach. The principles, tax rates and limitation on the amount of gain to be taken into account, which are set forth in Section 3(a), shall also apply for purposes of determining the timing and amount of payment to be made to a Protected Partner pursuant to this Section 5(a). The Operating Partnership shall be considered to have satisfied its obligations under Section 4, and therefore shall have no liability under this Section 5(a) for breach of such Section 4, if it offers a Protected Partner a Guarantee Opportunity in accordance with Section 4(a), and such Protected Partner fails to accept such Guarantee Opportunity. In no event shall the Operating Partnership’s liability under this Section 5(a) with respect to any Protected Partner for a breach of Section 4 exceed such Protected Partner’s tax on gain recognized with respect to such Protected Partner’s Aggregate Protected Amount Per Protected Partner plus any additional amounts payable so that such Protected Partner retains an amount equal to the tax on any gain recognized with respect to such Aggregate Protected Amount Per Protected Partner.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the sole and exclusive rights and remedies of any Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) for a breach or violation of the covenants set forth in Section 4 shall be a claim for damages against the Operating Partnership, computed as set forth in Section 5(a), and no Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) shall be entitled to pursue a claim for specific performance of the covenants set forth in Section 4.

Section 6 Elections.

(a) The Operating Partnership shall use, to the extent permitted under the Code, and shall cause any other entity in which the Operating Partnership has a direct or indirect interest to use, the “traditional method” under Regulations Section 1.704-3(b) for purposes of making allocations under Code Section 704(c) with respect to each Protected Property to take into account the book-tax disparities as of the Closing Date and with respect to any revaluation of such Protected Property pursuant to Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g), and 1.704-3(a)(6) with no “curative allocations,” “remedial allocations,” or adjustments to other items to offset the effect of the “ceiling rule.”

(b) Unless there is a Tax Event, the Operating Partnership shall not file an election under Code Section 754 with respect to its 2010 taxable year or otherwise treat the distribution of OP Units and/or Series A Preferred OP Units by the Contributor to certain of its limited partners immediately following the Formation Transactions as resulting in a basis adjustment in the Operating Partnership’s assets under Code Section 743.

(c) The Operating Partnership shall promptly notify the Protected Partners upon the occurrence of any Tax Event or receipt by the Operating Partnership or any of its affiliates of notice of any pending or threatened tax audits or assessments relating to any of the matters described in Section 4(b) or Section 6(b) hereof. If a Tax Event arises under subsection (i) of that definition, the Operating Partnership, at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the tax return for the Operating Partnership’s 2010 taxable year is filed (or if

such Tax Event arose less than thirty (30) days prior to such tax return filing date, then promptly after such Tax Event arose), will provide the Protected Partners, including the Contributor, with a written explanation of the change in law which caused the Tax Event. In the event that the Protected Partners disagree with the explanation of the change in law which resulted in the Tax Event, they shall be permitted to consult with the Operating Partnership’s tax accountants, and the Operating Partnership’s tax accountants will work with such Protected Partners in good faith to resolve such disagreement. If a Tax Event arises under subsection (ii) of that definition or if there is any pending tax audit or assessment relating to any of the matters described in Section 4(b) or Section 6(b) hereof, the Protected Partners, through their designated representative, and the Operating Partnership, each at their own expense, shall have the right to participate in any such audit or proceeding to the extent that such audit or proceeding relates to any of the matters described in Section 4(b) or Section 6(b) hereof. However, the designated representative of the Protected Partners shall have the right to control the conduct of such audit or proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Operating Partnership nor the designated representative of the Protected Partners may settle or otherwise resolve any such claim, suit or proceeding which could have an adverse tax effect on the Protected Partners or the Operating Partnership, as applicable, or their affiliates without the consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

Section 7 Redemption of Series A Preferred OP Units.

Notwithstanding Section 16.5.B of the OP Agreement, the Operating Partnership shall not redeem any portion of the Series A Preferred OP Units held by any Protected Partner during the applicable Protected Period. Upon the expiration of the applicable Protected Period, the Operating Partnership shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to redeem any Series A Preferred OP Units pursuant to, and subject to the provisions of, Section 16.5.B of the OP Agreement.

Section 8 Certain Waivers With Respect to OP Agreement.

The Company agrees that:

(a) Notwithstanding Section 3.4C of the OP Agreement, the Contributor may distribute the Partnership Units it receives pursuant to the Contribution Agreement to limited partners or preferred limited partners of the Contributor at or following Closing, provided that after any such distribution, such Partnership Units are held by no more than twenty-six (26) partners, including as partners any Flow-Through Partners (as defined in the OP Agreement).

(b) Notwithstanding Section 11.3A(i) of the OP Agreement, the Company shall not have a right of first refusal with respect to transfers of Partnership Units received by the Contributor pursuant to the Contribution Agreement to limited partners or preferred limited partners of the Contributor at or following Closing as described in Section 8(a).

(c) Notwithstanding Section 11.3(v) of the OP Agreement, the Contributor may transfer the Partnership Units it receives pursuant to the Contribution Agreement to limited partners or preferred limited partners of the Contributor at or following Closing as described in Section 8(a), even if fewer than 500 Partnership Units are transferred in connection with one or more of such transfers.

Section 9 Miscellaneous

(a) Further Assurances. The Contributor, Glenborough GP and the Operating Partnership shall take such other actions and execute such additional documents following the Closing as the other may reasonably request in order to effect the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

(c) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to the choice of laws provisions thereof.

(d) Amendment; Waiver. Any amendment hereto shall be in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No waiver of any provisions of this Agreement shall be valid unless in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

(e) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the exhibits and schedules hereto and the agreements referred to in Section 2.3 of the Contribution Agreement constitute the entire agreement and supersede conflicting provisions set forth in all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, as the case may be.

(f) Assignability. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be assigned (except by operation of law) by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be void and of no effect.

(g) Titles. The titles and captions of the Articles, Sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall have no effect on the construction or meaning of this Agreement.

(h) Third Party Beneficiary. Except as may be expressly provided or incorporated by reference herein, including, without limitation, the indemnification provisions hereof, no provision of this Agreement is intended, nor shall it be interpreted, to provide or create any third party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any customer, affiliate, stockholder, partner, member, director, officer or employee of any party hereto or any other person or entity.

(i) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, is for any reason held to any extent to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of the void or unenforceable provision and to execute any amendment, consent or agreement deemed necessary or desirable by the Operating Partnership to effect such replacement.

(j) Reliance. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that it is not relying on tax advice or other advice from the other party to this Agreement, and that it has or will consult with its own advisors. Except to the extent attributable to a breach by the Operating Partnership of any tax-related representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this Agreement or any Exhibit to this Agreement (including the Tax Protection Agreements), the Operating Partnership shall not be liable for any damages resulting from a successful challenge of the treatment or characterization by any taxing authority of the transactions contemplated herein.

(k) Notice. Any notice to be given hereunder by any party to the other shall be given in writing by either (i) personal delivery, (ii) registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or (iii) facsimile transmission (provided such facsimile is followed by an original of such notice by mail or personal delivery as provided herein), and any such notice shall be deemed communicated as of the date of

To the Protected Partners:

(l) Equitable Remedies. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth herein, no Contributor Party nor any Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) shall be entitled to pursue a claim for specific performance with respect to any term or provision of this Agreement.

(m) Dispute Resolution. The parties hereby agree that, in order to obtain prompt and expeditious resolution of any disputes under this Agreement, each claim, dispute or controversy of whatever nature, arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance or breach of this Agreement (or any other agreement contemplated by or related to this Agreement or any other agreement between the parties), including without limitation any claim based on contract, tort or statute, or the arbitrability of any claim hereunder (an “Arbitrable Claim”), shall, subject to Section 9(l) above, be settled by final and binding arbitration conducted in Los Angeles, California. The arbitrability of any Arbitrable Claims under this Agreement shall be resolved in accordance with a two-step dispute resolution process administered by Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) involving, first, mediation before a retired judge from the JAMS panel, followed, if necessary, by final and binding arbitration before the same, or if requested by either party, another JAMS panelist. Such dispute resolution process shall be confidential and shall be conducted in accordance with California Evidence Code Section 1119.

(i) Mediation. In the event any Arbitrable Claim is not resolved by an informal negotiation between the parties within fifteen (15) days after either party receives written notice that a Arbitrable Claim exists, the matter shall be referred to the Los Angeles, California office of JAMS, or any other office agreed to by the parties, for an informal, non-binding mediation consisting of one or more conferences between the parties in which a retired judge will seek to guide the parties to a resolution of the Arbitrable Claims. The parties shall select a mutually acceptable neutral arbitrator from among the JAMS panel of mediators. In the event the parties cannot agree on a mediator, the Administrator of JAMS will appoint a mediator. The mediation process shall continue until the earliest to occur of the following: (i) the Arbitrable Claims are resolved, (ii) the mediator makes a finding that there is no possibility of resolution through mediation, or (iii) thirty (30) days have elapsed since the Arbitrable Claim was first scheduled for mediation.

(ii) Arbitration. Should any Arbitrable Claims remain after the completion of the mediation process described above, the parties agree to submit all remaining Arbitrable Claims to final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with the then existing JAMS Arbitration Rules. Neither party nor the arbitrator shall disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of all parties. Except as provided herein, the California Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation, enforcement and all proceedings pursuant to this subparagraph. The arbitrator is without jurisdiction to apply any substantive law other than the laws selected or otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. The arbitrator shall render an award and a written, reasoned opinion in support thereof. Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(iii) Survivability. This dispute resolution process shall survive the termination of this Agreement. The parties expressly acknowledge that by signing this Agreement, they are giving up their respective right to a jury trial.

FORM OF DEBT GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

(FOR SECURED DEBT)

DEBT GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

[SECURED, NON-RECOURSE FORM]

This Debt Guarantee Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of , 20 , by and among the principals identified on Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively the “Principals”), Xxxxxx Pacific Properties, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), Xxxxxx Pacific Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, in its capacity as the general partner of the Operating Partnership (the “General Partner”), and , a and a wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Operating Partnership (the “Borrower”). The Principals, the Operating Partnership, the General Partner and the Borrower are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Parties”.

RECITALS

Pursuant to that certain (the “Loan”) dated as of , 20 , by and between Borrower and , a , as lender (the “Lender”), the Lender has loaned $ to the Borrower, secured by, among other collateral, mortgage liens (the “Deed of Trust”) on the real property described in Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Property”); and

The Principals are willing to make capital contributions to the Operating Partnership to enable the Operating Partnership to make capital contributions to the Borrower as necessary to assure the Borrower’s performance of the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan and the Deed of Trust on the terms hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Principals hereby agree as follows:

1. Capital Contributions to Satisfy Obligations.

(a) If, for any reason, the Borrower shall be in default under the Loan and repayment of the obligations (the “Obligations”) of the Borrower evidenced by the Loan and secured by the Deed of Trust is due (such default and repayment obligation referred to hereinafter as a “Default”), and the Default can be cured by the payment of cash to the Lender, then each Principal absolutely and unconditionally agrees to contribute (the “Contribution”) to the capital of the Operating Partnership an amount of cash (or cash equivalents) equal to such Principal’s Allocable Share (as defined below) of the Shortfall Amount (as defined below), which Contributions the Operating Partnership shall contribute to the capital of the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Principal’s maximum Contribution or other liability hereunder shall not be greater than the “Maximum Liability” listed opposite the Principal’s name on Exhibit A attached hereto, and under no circumstances shall a Principal be obligated to pay an aggregate amount under this Contribution Agreement in excess of such Principal’s Maximum Liability. No demand shall be made under this Agreement for payment of the Shortfall Amount or any portion thereof until such time (i) as the Lender shall have fully and completely exercised (and not waived) all rights, powers, and remedies it has with respect to foreclosure on the Property and (ii) the Property has been sold at foreclosure in accordance with applicable law, or following the date any such Default is cured. The “Shortfall Amount” shall equal the excess of (i) Total Maximum Liability set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto or the amount of outstanding principal and accrued interest owed on the Loan immediately prior to the Default, whichever is less; over (ii) the sum of all amounts recovered and the fair market value of the Property obtained

by the Lender (including, without limitation, with respect to principal, interest, late fees, penalties and costs of collection), if any, from or on behalf of the Borrower after the Default in proceedings against the Borrower or the Property under the Deed of Trust. Each Principal’s “Allocable Share” of the Shortfall Amount shall be equal to the product of (x) the total Shortfall Amount, multiplied by (y) the “Shortfall Percentage” listed opposite such Principal’s name on Exhibit A attached hereto. The obligations of each Principal hereunder are separate and distinct from the obligations of any other Principal hereunder and are not joint and several.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Loan is contractually nonrecourse to the Borrower, then each Principal’s obligations to make a Contribution to the Operating Partnership pursuant to this Agreement shall instead be a personal obligation and guarantee of such Principal, pursuant to which such Principal shall make a payment equal to the amount of the Contribution directly to the Lender, and any amount so paid by such Principal to the Lender shall be treated by such Principal, the Operating Partnership and the Borrower as a capital contribution by such Principal to the Operating Partnership followed by a contribution by the Operating Partnership of such amount to the capital of the Borrower. Such Principal’s rights with respect to such Contribution shall be the same as with respect to any actual Contribution made hereunder. If, for any reason, the Lender will not accept such payment, then (i) such payment shall be contributed by the Principal to the Operating Partnership, and from the Operating Partnership to the Borrower, as set forth in subparagraph (a) above; and (ii) the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Lender.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, no Principal shall have any obligation to make any payment pursuant to this Agreement to the extent that the Default occurs as a result of, or in connection with, “material uninsured damage” to the Property caused by an earthquake, environmental loss or mold infestation. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “material uninsured damage” shall refer to damage to the Property that is not compensated for by insurance and which is in an amount greater than twenty percent (20%) of the original principal amount of the Loan.

2. Term of Agreement. This Agreement, as well as all of the rights, duties, requirements and obligations created hereunder, shall expire and be of no further force or effect as of [the earlier of] the date on which the Obligations under the Loan are satisfied in full [or the anniversary of this Agreement].

3. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is expressly for the benefit of the Operating Partnership, the Borrower, the Lender, any Indemnified Party (as defined below), and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Beneficiaries”). The Parties intend that each of the Beneficiaries which is not a party to this Agreement shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement and that each Beneficiary shall have the right to enforce the obligations of each Principal hereunder separately and independently of the Operating Partnership, without any requirement whatsoever of resort by any Beneficiary to any other party, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. A Beneficiary’s status as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement and the Beneficiary’s right to enforce the obligations of the Principals are material elements of this Agreement. Any payments to a Beneficiary hereunder shall for all purposes hereunder be treated as capital contributions by the Principals to the Operating Partnership followed by the contribution of such amounts by the Operating Partnership to the capital of the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 1 above. The Operating Partnership shall furnish a copy of this Agreement to each Beneficiary simultaneously with its execution by the Parties.

4. Indemnification of Other Parties. Subject to the Lender’s requirement to first exercise its rights against the Property as provided in Paragraph 1 hereof, if, for any reason, the General Partner, the Operating Partnership, any other partner of the Operating Partnership or any affiliate thereof (each, an “Indemnified Party”) is required by the Lender to make any payment to the Lender or any contribution to the Borrower or the Operating Partnership with respect to the portion of the Loan for which a Contribution is required, or the Lender’s ability to make a claim against any Principal is reduced solely as a result of the Lender’s concurrent status as an Indemnified Party (collectively, an “Indemnified Party Outlay”), each Principal shall absolutely and unconditionally reimburse the Indemnified Party for, or pay to the Lender (as applicable), the lesser of (i) such Principal’s Allocable Share of

the full amount of such Indemnified Party Outlay or (ii) the maximum Contribution amount such Principal would have been obligated to contribute under Paragraph 1 hereof had such payment not been made by the Indemnified Party or had such reduction not occurred. Each Principal shall reimburse the Indemnified Party, or make a payment to the Lender, as required by this Paragraph 4 within 60 days after receiving written notice of a Indemnified Party Outlay from the Indemnified Party, the Lender, the Operating Partnership or the Borrower. Any payments to an Indemnified Party or the Lender hereunder shall for all purposes hereunder be treated as capital contributions by each Principal to the Operating Partnership followed by the contribution of such amounts by the Operating Partnership to the capital of the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 1 above.

5. Waivers. It is the intent of the Parties that each Principal shall bear the ultimate economic responsibility for the payment of its Contribution to the extent set forth in Paragraph 1 above. Pursuant to such intent:

(a) Except as set forth in Paragraph 1 above, the Principals expressly waive any right (pursuant to any law, rule, arrangement or relationship) to compel the Lender or any subsequent holder of the Loan or any beneficiary of the Deed of Trust to xxx or enforce payment thereof or pursue any other remedy in the power of the Operating Partnership, the Borrower, the Lender, any subsequent holder of the Loan or any beneficiary of the Deed of Trust whatsoever, and failure of the Operating Partnership, the Borrower, the Lender or any subsequent holder of the Loan or any beneficiary of the Deed of Trust to do so shall not exonerate, release or discharge the Principals from their absolute unconditional and independent obligations under this Agreement. The Principals hereby bind and obligate themselves and their permitted successors and assignees, severally on a pro rata basis, but not jointly, for the payment of the Contribution according to the terms hereof, whether or not the Obligations or any portion thereof are validly now or hereafter enforceable against the Borrower or any Indemnified Party or shall have been incurred in compliance with any of the conditions applicable thereto.

(b) The Principals expressly waive any right (pursuant to any law, rule, arrangement, or relationship, or otherwise) to compel any other person (including, but not limited to, the Borrower, the Operating Partnership or any other partner of the Operating Partnership) to reimburse or indemnify the Principals for all or any portion of amounts paid by them pursuant to this Agreement.

(i) the running of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection or performance of the Loan or Deed of Trust;

(ii) the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of any of the Parties or any other or others;

(iii) the Lender’s election, in any proceeding by or against the Borrower, the Operating Partnership or any other party under the federal Bankruptcy Code;

(iv) the application of section 1111(b)(2) of the federal Bankruptcy Code; or

(v) any borrowing or grant of a security interest under section 364 of the federal Bankruptcy Code.

(d) Except as set forth in Paragraph 1 above, the Principals expressly waive:

(i) presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of discharge, notice of acceptance of this Agreement or occurrence of, or any default in connection with, the Loan or Deed of Trust, and indulgences and notices of any other kind whatsoever, including, without limitation, notice of the disposition of any collateral for the Loan;

(ii) any defense based upon an election of remedies (including, if available, an election to proceed by non-judicial foreclosure) or other action or omission by the Lender or any other person or entity which destroys or otherwise impairs any indemnification, contribution or subrogation rights of the Principals (including under California Civil Code sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433) or the right of the Principals, if any, to proceed against the Borrower or the Operating Partnership for reimbursement, or any combination thereof, whether by the operation of California Code of Civil Procedure section 580d or otherwise;

(iii) any defense based upon any taking, modification or release of any collateral or guarantees for the Obligations, or any failure to create or perfect any security interest in, or the taking of or failure to take any other action with respect to, any collateral securing payment or performance of the Obligations;

(iv) any rights or defenses based upon any right to offset or claimed offset by any of the Principals against any indebtedness or obligation now or hereafter owed to any of the Principals by the Borrower, the Operating Partnership or the Lender;

(v) any and all benefits, rights or defenses which might otherwise be available to the Principals under California Civil Code sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2820, or 2821, or under California Code of Civil Procedure sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726; and

(vi) any rights or defenses based upon any rights or defenses of the Borrower or the Operating Partnership to the Loan or Deed of Trust (including without limitation the failure or value of consideration, any statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction, and the insolvency of the Borrower or the Operating Partnership), it being intended that the Principals shall remain liable hereunder, to the extent set forth herein, notwithstanding any act, omission or thing which might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of any of the Principals, the Operating Partnership or the Borrower.

6. Amendments of the Loan or Deed of Trust. Without in any manner limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower, the Operating Partnership, the General Partner, the Lender, or any subsequent holder of the Loan or beneficiary of the Deed of Trust may, from time to time, without notice to or consent of the Principals, agree to any amendment, waiver, modification or alteration of the Loan or the Deed of Trust relating to the Borrower, the Operating Partnership or the General Partner and their rights and obligations thereunder (including, without limitation, renewal, waiver or variation of the maturity of the indebtedness pursuant to the Loan, increase or reduction of the rate of interest payable under the Loan, release, substitution or addition of any guarantor or endorser and acceptance or release of any security for such Obligations). The Loan may be extended one or more times without notice to or consent from the Principals, and the Principals shall remain at all times bound to their obligations under this Agreement, notwithstanding such extensions.

7. Independent Obligations. The obligations of each of the Principals hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Borrower, the Operating Partnership, the General Partner and the other Principals, and a separate action or actions may be brought by the Lender against any of the Principals, whether or not actions are brought against the Borrower, the Operating Partnership, the General Partner or the other Principals, and whether or not the Borrower, the Operating Partnership, the General Partner or the other Principals are joined in any such action or actions against such Principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Principal shall be liable to the

Lender for any loss, cost, damage, injury or expense sustained or incurred by the Lender as a result of another Principal’s failure to perform its obligations. Each Principal expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution or any other claim which such Principal may now or hereafter have against the Borrower, the Operating Partnership, the General Partner or any other person directly or contingently liable for the payment or performance of the Loan or Deed of Trust (including, without limitation, any property collateralizing the Obligations), arising from the existence or performance of this Agreement. Each Principal further agrees that it will not enter into any agreement providing, directly or indirectly, for contribution, reimbursement or repayment by the Borrower, the Operating Partnership, the General Partner or any other person or entity on account of any payment by such Principal and further agrees that any such agreement, whether existing or hereafter entered into would be void. In furtherance, and not in limitation, of the preceding waiver, each Principal, the Borrower and the Operating Partnership agree that (i) any payment to the Lender or any Indemnified Party by a Principal pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed a contribution by such Principal to the capital of the Operating Partnership followed by a contribution by the Operating Partnership of such amount to the capital of the Borrower, and any such payment shall not cause any Principal to be a creditor of the Borrower or the Operating Partnership, and (ii) no Principal shall be entitled to, or shall receive, the return of or on any such capital contribution or receive any consideration in exchange therefor (including, but not limited to, any distribution from the Borrower or the Operating Partnership with respect to such contribution or interests or units in the Borrower or the Operating Partnership).

8. Release of Guarantee; Substitution. In the event (a) a Principal disposes of his, her or its entire direct or indirect interest in the Operating Partnership, or otherwise desires to be released from this Agreement, at a time when the Loan is not in default and the ratio of the outstanding balance of the Obligations to the appraised value of the Properties is not greater than [80%] (“Ratio Test”) or (b) a Principal dies, then, upon request by such Principal (or his or her estate), such Principal (or his or her estate) shall be released from all liability hereunder (and his, her or its obligations under this Agreement shall be reduced to zero). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the occurrence of an event described in clause (a) or (b) above shall not release a Principal (or its estate) from any payment obligation it incurred prior to the occurrence of such event. A Principal (or his or her estate) may, at his, her or its option, elect to substitute another person who is related to the Principal (or his her or its estate) (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.752-4(b)) to serve as a Principal hereunder, provided that such person has a net worth at the time of such substitution of not less than the net worth of the existing Principal hereunder at the time of such substitution and there is no default under the Loan at the time of such substitution. In the event of such substitution, the existing Principal hereunder shall be released from all liability upon delivery to the Lender of an agreement in the form of this Agreement executed by such substituted person.

9. No Assignment. Except as provided in Xxxxxxxxx 0 xxxxx, xxxx of the Parties shall be entitled to assign their rights or obligations under this Agreement to any other person without the written consent of the other Parties.

10. Entire Agreement. The Parties agree that this Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement between them with respect to the subject matter hereof and cannot be amended, modified or superseded, except by an agreement in writing signed by the Parties.

11. Notices. Any notice given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally to the other Party, or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the addresses listed below each Party’s signature hereto or to such other address with respect to which notice is subsequently provided in the manner set forth above.

12. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without reference to its choice of law provisions.

13. Condition of the Operating Partnership and the Borrower. The Principals are fully aware of the financial condition of the Borrower, the Operating Partnership and the Property, and are executing and delivering this Agreement based solely upon their own independent investigation of all matters pertinent hereto and are not relying in any manner upon any representation or statement of the Lender. Each Principal hereby represents and warrants that it is in a position to obtain, and hereby assumes full responsibility for obtaining, any additional information concerning the Borrower’s, the Operating Partnership’s and the Property’s financial condition and any other matter pertinent hereto as it may desire, and it is not relying upon or expecting the Lender to furnish to it any information now or hereafter in the Lender’s possession concerning the same or any other matter. By executing this Agreement, the Principals knowingly accept the full range of risks encompassed within a contract of this type, which risks they acknowledge. The Principals shall have no right to require the Lender to obtain or disclose any information with respect to the Obligations, the financial condition or character of the Borrower, the Operating Partnership, the Property, the Borrower’s ability to pay or perform the Obligations, the existence or non-existence of any guaranties of all or any part of the Obligations, any action or non-action on the part of the Lender, the Borrower, the Operating Partnership, or any other person, or any other matter, fact or occurrence whatsoever.

14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterpart (including by facsimile) with the same effect as if all Parties had signed the same document.

This Agreement, and any other documents to be executed or delivered in connection herewith, may be delivered by each party to the other parties by transmitting executed copies hereof or thereof by facsimile or electronic mail, to be followed by delivery of original executed versions hereof as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.

15. [Waiver of Jury. Each of the Parties hereto (i) covenants and agrees not to elect trial by jury of any issue triable of right by a jury, and (ii) waives any rights to trial by jury to the full extent that any such right shall now or hereafter exist. This waiver of right to trial by jury is separately given, knowingly and voluntarily, by each Party hereto, and this waiver is intended to encompass individually each instance and each issue as to which the right to a jury trial would otherwise accrue. The Parties are hereby authorized to submit this Agreement to any court having jurisdiction over the subject matter so as to serve as conclusive evidence of the other Parties’ herein contained waiver of the right to jury trial. Further, each Party hereto certifies that no representative of any other Party (including such other Party’s counsel) has represented, expressly or otherwise, to that Party, that the other Party will not seek to enforce this waiver by the such certifying Party of the right to a jury trial.]

ANNEX D-2

FORM OF DEBT GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

(FOR UNSECURED, RECOURSE DEBT)

DEBT GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

[UNSECURED, RECOURSE FORM]

This Debt Guarantee Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of , 20 , by and among the principals identified on Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively the “Principals”), Xxxxxx Pacific Properties, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and Xxxxxx Pacific Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, in its capacity as the general partner of the Operating Partnership (the “General Partner”). The Principals, the Operating Partnership and the General Partner are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Parties”.

RECITALS

Pursuant to that certain (the “Loan”) dated as of , 20 , by and between the Operating Partnership and , a , as lender (the “Lender”), the Lender has loaned $ to the Operating Partnership, which Loan is not secured by any of the assets of the Operating Partnership and is a general, recourse obligation of the Operating Partnership; and

The Principals are willing to make capital contributions to the Operating Partnership as necessary to assure the performance of the obligations of the Operating Partnership under the Loan on the terms hereinafter set forth.

1. Capital Contributions to Satisfy Obligations.

(a) If, for any reason, the Operating Partnership shall be in default under the Loan and repayment of the obligations (the “Obligations”) of the Operating Partnership evidenced by the Loan is due (such default and repayment obligation referred to hereinafter as a “Default”), and the Default can be cured by the payment of cash to the Lender, then each Principal absolutely and unconditionally agrees to contribute (the “Contribution”) to the capital of the Operating Partnership an amount of cash (or cash equivalents) equal to such Principal’s Allocable Share (as defined below) of the Shortfall Amount (as defined below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Principal’s maximum Contribution or other liability hereunder shall not be greater than the “Maximum Liability” listed opposite the Principal’s name on Exhibit A attached hereto, and under no circumstances shall a Principal be obligated to pay an aggregate amount under this Contribution Agreement in excess of such Principal’s Maximum Liability. No demand shall be made under this Agreement for payment of the Shortfall Amount or any portion thereof until such time as the Lender shall have fully and completely exercised (and not waived) all rights, powers, and remedies it has with respect to the assets of the Operating Partnership and, after such exercise, applied all net proceeds or other amounts received (including the amount of all credit bids and the like) to the discharge of the Obligations. The “Shortfall Amount” shall equal the excess of (i) Total Maximum Liability set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto or the amount of outstanding principal and accrued interest owed on the Loan immediately prior to the Default, whichever is less; over (ii) the net proceeds or other amounts attributable to the assets of the Operating Partnership that are applied to the discharge of the Obligations. Each

Principal’s “Allocable Share” of the Shortfall Amount shall be equal to the product of (x) the total Shortfall Amount, multiplied by (y) the “Shortfall Percentage” listed opposite such Principal’s name on Exhibit A attached hereto. The obligations of each Principal hereunder are separate and distinct from the obligations of any other Principal hereunder and are not joint and several.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, no Principal shall have any obligation to make any payment pursuant to this Agreement to the extent that the Default occurs as a result of, or in connection with, “material uninsured damage” to real property of the Operating Partnership caused by an earthquake, environmental loss or mold infestation. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “material uninsured damage” shall refer to damage to such property that is not compensated for by insurance and which is in an amount greater than twenty percent (20%) of the original principal amount of the Loan.

3. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is expressly for the benefit of the Operating Partnership, the Lender, any Indemnified Party (as defined below), and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Beneficiaries”). The Parties intend that each of the Beneficiaries which is not a party to this Agreement shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement and that each Beneficiary shall have the right to enforce the obligations of each Principal hereunder separately and independently of the Operating Partnership, without any requirement whatsoever of resort by any Beneficiary to any other party, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. A Beneficiary’s status as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement and the Beneficiary’s right to enforce the obligations of the Principals are material elements of this Agreement. Any payments to a Beneficiary hereunder shall for all purposes hereunder be treated as capital contributions by the Principals to the Operating Partnership in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 1 above. The Operating Partnership shall furnish a copy of this Agreement to each Beneficiary simultaneously with its execution by the Parties.

4. Indemnification of Other Parties. Subject to the Lender’s requirement to first exercise its rights against the assets of the Operating Partnership as provided in Paragraph 1 hereof, if, for any reason, the General Partner, the Operating Partnership, any other partner of the Operating Partnership or any affiliate thereof (each, an “Indemnified Party”) is required by the Lender to make any payment to the Lender or any contribution to the Operating Partnership with respect to the portion of the Loan for which a Contribution is required, or the Lender’s ability to make a claim against any Principal is reduced solely as a result of the Lender’s concurrent status as an Indemnified Party (collectively, an “Indemnified Party Outlay”), each Principal shall absolutely and unconditionally reimburse the Indemnified Party for, or pay to the Lender (as applicable), the lesser of (i) such Principal’s Allocable Share of the full amount of such Indemnified Party Outlay or (ii) the maximum Contribution amount such Principal would have been obligated to contribute under Paragraph 1 hereof had such payment not been made by the Indemnified Party or had such reduction not occurred. Each Principal shall reimburse the Indemnified Party, or make a payment to the Lender, as required by this Paragraph 4 within 60 days after receiving written notice of a Indemnified Party Outlay from the Indemnified Party, the Lender or the Operating Partnership. Any payments to an Indemnified Party or the Lender hereunder shall for all purposes hereunder be treated as capital contributions by each Principal to the Operating Partnership in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 1 above.

or any subsequent holder of the Loan whatsoever, and failure of the Operating Partnership, the Lender or any subsequent holder of the Loan to do so shall not exonerate, release or discharge the Principals from their absolute unconditional and independent obligations under this Agreement. The Principals hereby bind and obligate themselves and their permitted successors and assignees, severally on a pro rata basis, but not jointly, for the payment of the Contribution according to the terms hereof, whether or not the Obligations or any portion thereof are validly now or hereafter enforceable against the Operating Partnership or any Indemnified Party or shall have been incurred in compliance with any of the conditions applicable thereto.

(b) The Principals expressly waive any right (pursuant to any law, rule, arrangement, or relationship, or otherwise) to compel any other person (including, but not limited to, the Operating Partnership or any other partner of the Operating Partnership) to reimburse or indemnify the Principals for all or any portion of amounts paid by them pursuant to this Agreement.

(i) the running of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection or performance of the Loan;

(ii) the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of any of the Parties or any other or others;

(iii) the Lender’s election, in any proceeding by or against the Operating Partnership or any other party under the federal Bankruptcy Code;

(iv) the application of section 1111(b)(2) of the federal Bankruptcy Code; or

(v) any borrowing or grant of a security interest under section 364 of the federal Bankruptcy Code.

(d) Except as set forth in Paragraph 1 above, the Principals expressly waive:

(i) presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of discharge, notice of acceptance of this Agreement or occurrence of, or any default in connection with, the Loan, and indulgences and notices of any other kind whatsoever, including, without limitation, notice of the disposition of any collateral for the Loan;

(ii) any defense based upon an election of remedies (including, if available, an election to proceed by non-judicial foreclosure) or other action or omission by the Lender or any other person or entity which destroys or otherwise impairs any indemnification, contribution or subrogation rights of the Principals (including under California Civil Code sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433) or the right of the Principals, if any, to proceed against the Operating Partnership for reimbursement, or any combination thereof, whether by the operation of California Code of Civil Procedure section 580d or otherwise;

(vi) any rights or defenses based upon any rights or defenses of the Operating Partnership to the Loan (including without limitation the failure or value of consideration, any statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction, and the insolvency of the Operating Partnership), it being intended that the Principals shall remain liable hereunder, to the extent set forth herein, notwithstanding any act, omission or thing which might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of any of the Principals or the Operating Partnership.

6. Amendments of the Loan. Without in any manner limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Operating Partnership, the General Partner, the Lender, or any subsequent holder of the Loan may, from time to time, without notice to or consent of the Principals, agree to any amendment, waiver, modification or alteration of the Loan relating to the Operating Partnership or the General Partner and their rights and obligations thereunder (including, without limitation, renewal, waiver or variation of the maturity of the indebtedness pursuant to the Loan, increase or reduction of the rate of interest payable under the Loan, release, substitution or addition of any guarantor or endorser and acceptance or release of any security for such Obligations). The Loan may be extended one or more times without notice to or consent from the Principals, and the Principals shall remain at all times bound to their obligations under this Agreement, notwithstanding such extensions.

7. Independent Obligations. The obligations of each of the Principals hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Operating Partnership, the General Partner and the other Principals, and a separate action or actions may be brought by the Lender against any of the Principals, whether or not actions are brought against the Operating Partnership, the General Partner or the other Principals, and whether or not the Operating Partnership, the General Partner or the other Principals are joined in any such action or actions against such Principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Principal shall be liable to the Lender for any loss, cost, damage, injury or expense sustained or incurred by the Lender as a result of another Principal’s failure to perform its obligations. Each Principal expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution or any other claim which such Principal may now or hereafter have against the Operating Partnership, the General Partner or any other person directly or contingently liable for the payment or performance of the Loan (including, without limitation, any property collateralizing the Obligations), arising from the existence or performance of this Agreement. Each Principal further agrees that it will not enter into any agreement providing, directly or indirectly, for contribution, reimbursement or repayment by the Operating Partnership, the General Partner or any other person or entity on account of any payment by such Principal and further agrees that any such agreement, whether existing or hereafter entered into would be void. In furtherance, and not in limitation, of the preceding waiver, each Principal and the Operating Partnership agree that (i) any payment to the Lender or any Indemnified Party by a Principal pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed a contribution by such Principal to the capital of the Operating Partnership, and any such payment shall not cause any Principal to be a creditor of the Operating Partnership, and (ii) no Principal shall be entitled to, or shall receive, the return of or on any such capital contribution or receive any consideration in exchange therefor (including, but not limited to, any distribution from the Operating Partnership with respect to such contribution or interests or units in the Operating Partnership).

Agreement, at a time when the Loan is not in default and the ratio of the outstanding balance of the Obligations to the appraised value of the assets of the Operating Partnership is not greater than [80%] (“Ratio Test”) or (b) a Principal dies, then, upon request by such Principal (or his or her estate), such Principal (or his or her estate) shall be released from all liability hereunder (and his, her or its obligations under this Agreement shall be reduced to zero). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the occurrence of an event described in clause (a) or (b) above shall not release a Principal (or its estate) from any payment obligation it incurred prior to the occurrence of such event. A Principal (or his or her estate) may, at his, her or its option, elect to substitute another person who is related to the Principal (or his her or its estate) (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.752-4(b)) to serve as a Principal hereunder, provided that such person has a net worth at the time of such substitution of not less than the net worth of the existing Principal hereunder at the time of such substitution and there is no default under the Loan at the time of such substitution. In the event of such substitution, the existing Principal hereunder shall be released from all liability upon delivery to the Lender of an agreement in the form of this Agreement executed by such substituted person.

12. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without reference to its choice of law provisions.

13. Condition of the Operating Partnership. The Principals are fully aware of the financial condition of the Operating Partnership and are executing and delivering this Agreement based solely upon their own independent investigation of all matters pertinent hereto and are not relying in any manner upon any representation or statement of the Lender. Each Principal hereby represents and warrants that it is in a position to obtain, and hereby assumes full responsibility for obtaining, any additional information concerning the Operating Partnership’s financial condition and any other matter pertinent hereto as it may desire, and it is not relying upon or expecting the Lender to furnish to it any information now or hereafter in the Lender’s possession concerning the same or any other matter. By executing this Agreement, the Principals knowingly accept the full range of risks encompassed within a contract of this type, which risks they acknowledge. The Principals shall have no right to require the Lender to obtain or disclose any information with respect to the Obligations, the financial condition or character of the Operating Partnership, the Operating Partnership’s ability to pay or perform the Obligations, the existence or non-existence of any guaranties of all or any part of the Obligations, any action or non-action on the part of the Lender, the Operating Partnership, or any other person, or any other matter, fact or occurrence whatsoever.
