ARTICLE IV.

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND ISSUANCES

OF PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS

        Section 4.01. Capital Contributions of the Partners

        A.    Initial Capital Contributions and Recapitalization of the Partnership on the Effective Date.    On the Effective Date, the Partners will make Capital Contributions to the Partnership in connection with the Consolidation. On the Effective Date, the General Partner will complete Exhibit A hereto to reflect the Capital Contributions made by each Partner, the Partnership Units assigned to each Partner and the Percentage Interest in the Partnership represented by such Partnership Units. The Capital Accounts of the Partners and the Carrying Values of the Partnership's Assets shall be determined as of the Effective Date pursuant to Section I.D of Exhibit B hereto to reflect the Capital Contributions made on the Effective Date.

        B.    General Partnership Interest.    A number of Partnership Units held by the General Partner equal to one percent (1%) of all outstanding Partnership Units shall be deemed to be the General Partner Partnership Units and shall be the General Partnership Interest. All other Partnership Units held by the General Partner shall be deemed to be Limited Partnership Interests and shall be held by the General Partner in its capacity as a Limited Partner in the Partnership.

        C.    Capital Contributions By Merger.    To the extent the Partnership acquires any property by the merger of any other Person into the Partnership, Persons who receive Partnership Interests in exchange for their interests in the Person merging into the Partnership shall become Partners and shall be deemed to have made Capital Contributions as provided in the applicable merger agreement and as set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

16

        D.    No Obligation to Make Additional Capital Contributions.    Except as provided in Sections 7.5 and 10.5 hereof, the Partners shall have no obligation to make any additional Capital Contributions or provide any additional funding to the Partnership (whether in the form of loans, repayments of loans or otherwise). No Partner shall have any obligation to restore any deficit that may exist in its Capital Account, either upon a liquidation of the Partnership or otherwise.

        Section 4.02. Issuances of Partnership Interests

        A.    General.    The General Partner is hereby authorized to cause the Partnership from time to time to issue to Partners (including the General Partner and its Affiliates) or other Persons (including, without limitation, in connection with the contribution of property to the Partnership) Partnership Units or other Partnership Interests in one or more classes, or in one or more series of any of such classes, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, powers and duties, including rights, powers and duties senior to Limited Partnership Interests, all as shall be determined, subject to applicable Delaware law, by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, including, without limitation, (i) the allocations of items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and credit to each such class or series of Partnership Interests, (ii) the right of each such class or series of Partnership Interests to share in Partnership distributions and (iii) the rights of each such class or series of Partnership Interests upon dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership; provided, that no such Partnership Units or other Partnership Interests shall be issued to the General Partner unless either (a) the Partnership Interests are issued in connection with the grant, award or issuance of Shares or other equity interests in the General Partner having designations, preferences and other rights such that the economic interests attributable to such Shares or other equity interests are substantially similar to the designations, preferences and other rights (except voting rights) of the additional Partnership Interests issued to the General Partner in accordance with this Section 4.2.A or (b) the Partnership Interests are issued to all Partners holding Partnership Interests in the same class in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests in such class. In the event that the Partnership issues Partnership Interests pursuant to this Section 4.2.A, the General Partner shall make such revisions to this Agreement (including but not limited to the revisions described in Section 5.4, Section 6.2 and Section 8.6 hereof) as it deems necessary to reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Interests.

        B.    Percentage Interest Adjustments in the Case of Capital Contributions for Partnership Units.    Upon the acceptance of additional Capital Contributions in exchange for Partnership Units, the Percentage Interest related thereto shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of cash, if any, plus the Agreed Value of Contributed Property, if any, contributed with respect to such additional Partnership Units and the denominator of which is equal to the sum of (i) the Deemed Value of the Partnership Interests for all outstanding classes (computed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the additional Capital Contributions are made (an "Adjustment Date")) plus (ii) the aggregate amount of additional Capital Contributions contributed to the Partnership on such Adjustment Date in respect of such additional Partnership Units. The Percentage Interest of each other Partner holding Partnership Interests not making a full pro rata Capital Contribution shall be adjusted to a fraction the numerator of which is equal to the sum of (i) the Deemed Partnership Interest Value of such Limited Partner (computed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Adjustment Date) plus (ii) the amount of additional Capital Contributions (such amount being equal to the amount of cash, if any, plus the Agreed Value of Contributed Property, if any, so contributed), if any, made by such Partner to the Partnership in respect of such Partnership Interest as of such Adjustment Date and the denominator of which is equal to the sum of (i) the Deemed Value of the Partnership Interests of all outstanding classes (computed as of the Business Day immediately preceding such Adjustment Date) plus (ii) the aggregate amount of the additional Capital Contributions contributed to the Partnership on such Adjustment Date in respect of such additional Partnership Interests. For purposes of calculating a Partner's Percentage Interest

17

pursuant to this Section 4.2.B, cash Capital Contributions by the General Partner will be deemed to equal the cash contributed by the General Partner plus (a) in the case of cash contributions funded by an offering of any equity interests in or other securities of the General Partner, the offering costs attributable to the cash contributed to the Partnership, and (b) in the case of Partnership Units issued pursuant to Section 7.5.E hereof, an amount equal to the difference between the Value of the Shares sold pursuant to any Stock Option Plan and the net proceeds of such sale.

        C.    Classes of Partnership Units.    From and after the Effective Date, subject to Section 4.2.A above, the Partnership shall have two classes of Partnership Units, entitled "Class A Units" and "Class B Units." Either Class A Units or Class B Units, at the election of the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, may be issued to newly admitted Partners in exchange for the contribution by such Partners of cash, real estate partnership interests, stock, notes or other assets or consideration; provided, that all Partnership Units issued to Partners in connection with the Consolidation shall be Class A Units; and, provided, further, that any Partnership Unit that is not specifically designated by the General Partner as being of a particular class shall be deemed to be a Class A Unit. Each Class B Unit shall be converted automatically into a Class A Unit on the day immediately following the Partnership Record Date for the Distribution Period (as defined in Section 5.1.C hereof) in which such Class B Unit was issued, without the requirement for any action by either the Partnership or the Partner holding the Class B Unit.

        Section 4.03. No Preemptive Rights

        Except to the extent expressly granted by the Partnership pursuant to another agreement, no Person shall have any preemptive, preferential or other similar right with respect to (i) additional Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership or (ii) issuance or sale of any Partnership Units or other Partnership Interests.

        Section 4.04. Other Contribution Provisions

        In the event that any Partner is admitted to the Partnership and is given a Capital Account in exchange for services rendered to the Partnership, such transaction shall be treated by the Partnership and the affected Partner as if the Partnership had compensated such Partner in cash, and the Partner had contributed such cash to the capital of the Partnership.

        Section 4.05. No Interest on Capital

        No Partner shall be entitled to interest on its Capital Contributions or its Capital Account.

ARTICLE V.

DISTRIBUTIONS

        Section 5.01. Requirement and Characterization of Distributions

        A.    General.    The General Partner shall distribute at least quarterly an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of Available Cash generated by the Partnership during such quarter or shorter period to the Partners who are Partners on the Partnership Record Date with respect to such quarter or shorter period as provided in Sections 5.1.B, 5.1.D and 6.1.C below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event may a Partner receive a distribution of Available Cash with respect to a Partnership Unit for a quarter or shorter period if such Partner is entitled to receive a distribution out of such Available Cash with respect to a Share for which such Partnership Unit has been redeemed or exchanged. Unless otherwise expressly provided for herein or in an agreement at the time a new class of Partnership Interests is created in accordance with Article IV hereof, no Partnership Interest shall be entitled to a distribution in preference to any other Partnership Interest. The General Partner shall make such reasonable efforts, as determined by it in its sole and absolute discretion and consistent with the qualification of the General Partner Entity as a REIT, to distribute

18

Available Cash (a) to Limited Partners so as to preclude any such distribution or portion thereof from being treated as part of a sale of property by a Limited Partner under Section 707 Code or the Regulations thereunder; provided that, the General Partner and the Partnership shall not have liability to a Limited Partner under any circumstances as a result of any distribution to a Limited Partner being so treated, and (b) to the General Partner in an amount sufficient to enable the General Partner Entity to pay stockholder dividends that will (1) satisfy the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code and the Regulations (the "REIT Requirements") and (2) avoid any federal income or excise tax liability for the General Partner Entity.

        B.    Method.    (i) Each holder of Partnership Interests that are entitled to any preference in distribution shall be entitled to a distribution in accordance with the rights of any such class of Partnership Interests (and, within such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective Percentage Interests on such Partnership Record Date); and

        (i) To the extent there is Available Cash remaining after the payment of any preference in distribution in accordance with the foregoing clause (i), with respect to Partnership Interests that are not entitled to any preference in distribution, pro rata to each such class in accordance with the terms of such class (and, within each such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective Percentage Interests on such Partnership Record Date).

        C.    Distributions When Class B Units Are Outstanding.    If for any quarter or shorter period with respect to which a distribution is to be made (a "Distribution Period") Class B Units are outstanding on the Partnership Record Date for such Distribution Period, the General Partner shall allocate the Available Cash with respect to such Distribution Period available for distribution with respect to the Class A Units and Class B Units collectively between the Partners who are holders of Class A Units ("Class A") and the Partners who are holders of Class B Units ("Class B") as follows:

        (1) Class A shall receive that portion of the Available Cash (the "Class A Share") determined by multiplying the amount of Available Cash by the following fraction:

A × Y (A × Y)+(B × X)

        (2) Class B shall receive that portion of the Available Cash (the "Class B Share") determined by multiplying the amount of Available Cash by the following fraction:

B × X (A × Y)+(B × X)

        (3) For purposes of the foregoing formulas, (i) "A" equals the number of Class A Units outstanding on the Partnership Record Date for such Distribution Period; (ii) "B" equals the number of Class B Units outstanding on the Partnership Record Date for such Distribution Period; (iii) "Y" equals the number of days in the Distribution Period; and (iv) "X" equals the number of days in the Distribution Period for which the Class B Units were issued and outstanding.

        The Class A Share shall be distributed among Partners holding Class A Units on the Partnership Record Date for the Distribution Period in accordance with the number of Class A Units held by each Partner on such Partnership Record Date; provided that, in no event may a Partner receive a distribution of Available Cash with respect to a Class A Unit if the Partner is entitled to receive a distribution out of such Available Cash with respect to a Share for which such Class A Unit has been redeemed or exchanged. The Class B Share shall be distributed among the Partners holding Class B Units on the Partnership Record Date for the Distribution Period in accordance with the number of Class B Units held by each Partner on such Partnership Record Date. In no event shall any Partner

19

holding Class B Units be entitled to receive any distribution of Available Cash with respect to such Units for any Distribution Period ending prior to the date on which such Class B Units are issued.

        D.    Distributions When Class B Units Have Been Issued on Different Dates.    In the event that Class B Units which have been issued on different dates are outstanding on the Partnership Record Date for any Distribution Period, then the Class B Units issued on each particular date shall be treated as a separate series of Partnership Units for purposes of making the allocation of Available Cash for such Distribution Period among the holders of Partnership Units (and the formula for making such allocation, and the definitions of variables used therein, shall be modified accordingly). Thus, for example, if two series of Class B Units are outstanding on the Partnership Record Date for any Distribution Period, the allocation formula for each series, "Series B₁" and "Series B₂" would be as follows:

        (1) Series B₁ shall receive that portion of the Available Cash determined by multiplying the amount of Available Cash by the following fraction:

B_l × X₁ (A × Y)+(B_l × X₁)+(B₂ × X₂)

        (2) Series B₂ shall receive that portion of the Available Cash determined by multiplying the amount of Available Cash by the following fraction:

B₂ × X₂ (A × Y)+(B_l × X_l)+(B₂ × X₂)

        (3) For purposes of the foregoing formulas the definitions set forth in Section 5.1.C.3 above remain the same except that (i) "B_l" equals the number of Partnership Units in Series B₁ outstanding on the Partnership Record Date for such Distribution Period; (ii) "B₂" equals the number of Partnership Units in Series B₂ outstanding on the Partnership Record Date for such Distribution Period; (iii) "X_l" equals the number of days in the Distribution Period for which the Partnership Units in Series B₁ were issued and outstanding; and (iv) "X₂" equals the number of days in the Distribution Period for which the Partnership Units in Series B₂ were issued and outstanding.

        E.    Minimum Distributions if General Partner Not Publicly Traded.    In addition (and without regard to the amount of Available Cash), if the shares of common stock (or other comparable equity interests) of the General Partner are not Publicly Traded, the General Partner shall make cash distributions with respect to the Class A Units at least annually for each taxable year of the Partnership beginning prior to the fifteenth (15th) anniversary of the Effective Date in an aggregate amount with respect to each such taxable year at least equal to 95% of the Partnership's taxable income for such year allocable to the Class A Units, with such distributions to be made not later than 60 days after the end of such year.

        Section 5.02. Amounts Withheld

        All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any state or local tax law and Section 10.5 hereof with respect to any allocation, payment or distribution to the General Partner, the Limited Partners or Assignees shall be treated as amounts distributed to the General Partner, Limited Partners or Assignees pursuant to Section 5.1 above for all purposes under this Agreement.

        Section 5.03. Distributions Upon Liquidation

        Proceeds from a Terminating Capital Transaction shall be distributed to the Partners in accordance with Section 13.2 hereof.

        Section 5.04. Revisions to Reflect Issuance of Additional Partnership Interests

20

        In the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Interests to the General Partner or any Additional Limited Partner pursuant to Article IV hereof, the General Partner shall make such revisions to this Article V as it deems necessary to reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Interests. Such revisions shall not require the consent or approval of any other Partner.

ARTICLE VI.

ALLOCATIONS

        Section 6.01. Allocations For Capital Account Purposes

        A.    Net Income.    After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 1 of Exhibit C hereto, Net Income shall be allocated (i) first, to the General Partner to the extent that Net Losses previously allocated to the General Partner, on a cumulative basis, pursuant to the last sentence of Section 6.1.B below exceed Net Income previously allocated to the General Partner, on a cumulative basis, pursuant to this clause (i) of Section 6.1.A, (ii) second, to the holders of any Partnership Interests that are entitled to any preference in distribution in accordance with the rights of any such class of Partnership Interests until each such Partnership Interest has been allocated, on a cumulative basis pursuant to this clause (ii), Net Income equal to the sum of the amount of distributions received with respect to such Partnership Interests pursuant to clause (i) of Section 5.1.B hereof and the amount of any prior allocations of Net Losses to such class of Partnership Interests pursuant to Section 6.1.B(i) below (and, within such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective interests in such class as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made) and (iii) third, with respect to Partnership Interests that are not entitled to any preference in the allocation of Net Income, pro rata to each such class in accordance with the terms of such class (and, within such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective interests in such class as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made).

        B.    Net Losses.    After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 1 of Exhibit C hereto, Net Losses shall be allocated (i) first, to the holders of any Partnership Interests that are entitled to any preference in distribution in accordance with the rights of any such class of Partnership Interests to the extent that any prior allocations of Net Income to such class of Partnership Interests pursuant to Section 6.1.A(ii) above exceed, on a cumulative basis, distributions with respect to such Partnership Interests pursuant to clause (i) of Section 5.1.B hereof (and, within such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective interests in such class as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made) and (ii) second, with respect to classes of Partnership Interests that are not entitled to any preference in distribution, pro rata to each such class in accordance with the terms of such class (and, within such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective interests in such class as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made); provided that, Net Losses shall not be allocated to any Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 6.1.B to the extent that such allocation would cause such Limited Partner to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit (or increase any existing Adjusted Capital Account Deficit) at the end of such taxable year (or portion thereof). All Net Losses in excess of the limitations set forth in this Section 6.1.B shall be allocated to the General Partner.

        C.    Allocation of Nonrecourse Debt.    For purposes of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a), the Partners agree that Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Partnership in excess of the sum of (i) the amount of Partnership Minimum Gain and (ii) the total amount of Nonrecourse Built-in Gain shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

21

        D.    Recapture Income.    Any gain allocated to the Partners upon the sale or other taxable disposition of any Partnership asset shall, to the extent possible after taking into account other required allocations of gain pursuant to Exhibit C hereto, be characterized as Recapture Income in the same proportions and to the same extent as such Partners have been allocated any deductions directly or indirectly giving rise to the treatment of such gains as Recapture Income.

        Section 6.02. Revisions to Allocations to Reflect Issuance of Additional Partnership Interests

        In the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Interests to the General Partner or any Additional Limited Partner pursuant to Article IV hereof, the General Partner shall make such revisions to this Article VI and Exhibit A as it deems necessary to reflect the terms of the issuance of such additional Partnership Interests, including making preferential allocations to classes of Partnership Interests that are entitled thereto. Such revisions shall not require the consent or approval of any other Partner.

ARTICLE VII.

        Section 7.01. Management

        X.    Xxxxxx of General Partner.    Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all management powers over the business and affairs of the Partnership are and shall be exclusively vested in the General Partner, and no Limited Partner shall have any right to participate in or exercise control or management power over the business and affairs of the Partnership. The General Partner may not be removed by the Limited Partners with or without cause; provided, however, that if the Shares (or comparable equity securities) of the General Partner Entity are not Publicly Traded, the General Partner may be removed with cause with the Consent of the Outside Limited Partners. In addition to the powers now or hereafter granted a general partner of a limited partnership under applicable law or which are granted to the General Partner under any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner, subject to Sections 7.6 and 7.11 below, shall have full power and authority to do all things deemed necessary or desirable by it to conduct the business of the Partnership, to exercise all powers set forth in Section 3.2 hereof and to effectuate the purposes set forth in Section 3.1 hereof, including, without limitation:

        (12) the maintenance of such insurance for the benefit of the Partnership and the Partners as it deems necessary or appropriate;

        (13) the formation of, or acquisition of an interest (including non-voting interests in entities controlled by Affiliates of the Partnership or third parties) in, and the contribution of property to, any further limited or general partnerships, joint ventures, limited liability companies or other relationships that it deems desirable (including, without limitation, the acquisition of interests in, and the contributions of funds or property, or the making of loans, to its Subsidiaries and any other Person in which it has an equity investment from time to time or the incurrence of indebtedness on behalf of such Persons or the guarantee of obligations of such Persons); provided that, as long as the General Partner has determined to

        (20) the distribution of cash to acquire Partnership Units held by a Limited Partner in connection with a Limited Partner's exercise of its Redemption Right under Section 8.6 hereof; and

        (21) the amendment and restatement of Exhibit A hereto to reflect accurately at all times the Capital Contributions and Percentage Interests of the Partners as the same are adjusted from time to time to the extent necessary to reflect redemptions, Capital Contributions, the issuance of Partnership Units, the admission of any Additional Limited Partner or any Substituted Limited Partner or otherwise, which amendment and restatement, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shall not be deemed an amendment of this Agreement, as long as the matter or event being reflected in Exhibit A hereto otherwise is authorized by this Agreement.

        B.    No Approval by Limited Partners.    Except as provided in Section 7.11 below, each of the Limited Partners agrees that the General Partner is authorized to execute, deliver and perform the above-mentioned agreements and transactions on behalf of the Partnership without any further act, approval or vote of the Partners, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Act or any applicable law, rule or regulation, to the full extent permitted under the Act or other applicable law.

24

any duty that the General Partner may owe the Partnership or the Limited Partners or any other Persons under this Agreement or of any duty stated or implied by law or equity.

        C.    Insurance.    At all times from and after the date hereof, the General Partner may cause the Partnership to obtain and maintain (i) casualty, liability and other insurance on the properties of the Partnership, (ii) liability insurance for the Indemnitees hereunder and (iii) such other insurance as the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines to be necessary.

        D.    Working Capital and Other Reserves.    At all times from and after the date hereof, the General Partner may cause the Partnership to establish and maintain working capital reserves in such amounts as the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems appropriate and reasonable from time to time, including upon liquidation of the Partnership pursuant to Section 13.2 hereof.

        E.    No Obligations to Consider Tax Consequences of Limited Partners.    In exercising its authority under this Agreement, the General Partner may, but shall be under no obligation to, take into account the tax consequences to any Partner (including the General Partner) of any action taken (or not taken) by it. The General Partner and the Partnership shall not have liability to a Limited Partner for monetary damages or otherwise for losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived by such Limited Partner in connection with such decisions, provided that the General Partner has acted in good faith and pursuant to its authority under this Agreement.

        Section 7.02. Certificate of Limited Partnership

        The General Partner has previously filed the Certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware. To the extent that such action is determined by the General Partner to be reasonable and necessary or appropriate, the General Partner shall file amendments to and restatements of the Certificate and do all the things to maintain the Partnership as a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the limited partners have limited liability) under the laws of the State of Delaware and each other state, the District of Columbia or other jurisdiction in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property. Subject to the terms of Section 8.5.A(4) hereof, the General Partner shall not be required, before or after filing, to deliver or mail a copy of the Certificate or any amendment thereto to any Limited Partner. The General Partner shall use all reasonable efforts to cause to be filed such other certificates or documents as may be reasonable and necessary or appropriate for the formation, continuation, qualification and operation of a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the limited partners have limited liability) in the State of Delaware and any other state, the District of Columbia or other jurisdiction in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property.

25

        Section 7.03. Title to Partnership Assets

        Title to Partnership 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 Partners, individually or collectively, shall have any ownership interest in such Partnership assets or any portion thereof. Title to any or all of the Partnership assets may be held in the name of the Partnership, the General Partner or one or more nominees, as the General Partner may determine, including Affiliates of the General Partner. The General Partner hereby declares and warrants that any Partnership assets for which legal title is held in the name of the General Partner or any nominee or Affiliate of the General Partner shall be held by the General Partner 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 best efforts to cause beneficial and record title to such assets to be vested in the Partnership as soon as reasonably practicable. All Partnership assets shall be recorded as the property of the Partnership in its books and records, irrespective of the name in which legal title to such Partnership assets is held.

        Section 7.04. Reimbursement of the General Partner

        A.    No Compensation.    Except as provided in this Section 7.4 and elsewhere in this Agreement (including the provisions of Articles V and VI hereof regarding distributions, payments and allocations to which it may be entitled), the General Partner shall not be compensated for its services as general partner of the Partnership.

        B.    Responsibility for Partnership Expenses.    The Partnership shall be responsible for and shall pay all expenses relating to the Partnership's organization, the ownership of its assets and its operations. The General Partner shall be reimbursed on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partner may determine in its sole and absolute discretion, for all expenses it incurs relating to the ownership and operation of, or for the benefit of, the Partnership (including, without limitation, expenses related to the management and administration of any Subsidiaries of the General Partner or the Partnership or Affiliates of the Partnership such as auditing expenses and filing fees); provided that, the amount of any such reimbursement shall be reduced by (i) any interest earned by the General Partner with respect to bank accounts or other instruments or accounts held by it as permitted in Section 7.5.A below and (ii) any amount derived by the General Partner from any investments permitted in Section 7.5.A below; and, provided further, that the General Partner shall not be reimbursed for (i) income tax liabilities or (ii) filing or similar fees in connection with maintaining the General Partner's continued corporate existence that are incurred by the General Partner. The General Partner shall determine in good faith the amount of expenses incurred by it related to the ownership and operation of, or for the benefit of, the Partnership. In the event that certain expenses are incurred for the benefit of the Partnership and other entities (including the General Partner), such expenses will be allocated to the Partnership and such other entities in such a manner as the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion deems fair and reasonable. Such reimbursements shall be in addition to any reimbursement to the General Partner pursuant to Section 10.3.C hereof and as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7 below. All payments and reimbursements hereunder shall be characterized for federal income tax purposes as expenses of the Partnership incurred on its behalf, and not as expenses of the General Partner.

        C.    Partnership Interest Issuance Expenses.    The General Partner shall also be reimbursed for all expenses it incurs relating to any issuance of additional Partnership Interests, Shares, Debt of the Partnership or the General Partner or rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities pursuant to Article IV hereof (including, without limitation, all costs, expenses, damages and other payments resulting from or arising in connection with litigation related to any of the foregoing), all of which expenses are considered by the Partners to constitute expenses of, and for the benefit of, the Partnership.

26

        D.    Purchases of Shares by the General Partner.    In the event that the General Partner exercises its rights under the Articles of Incorporation to purchase Shares or otherwise elects to purchase from its stockholders Shares in connection with a stock repurchase or similar program or for the purpose of delivering such Shares to satisfy an obligation under any dividend reinvestment or stock purchase program adopted by the General Partner, any employee stock purchase plan adopted by the General Partner or any similar obligation or arrangement undertaken by the General Partner in the future, the purchase price paid by the General Partner for such Shares and any other expenses incurred by the General Partner in connection with such purchase shall be considered expenses of the Partnership and shall be reimbursable to the General Partner, subject to the conditions that: (i) if such Shares subsequently are to be sold by the General Partner, the General Partner pays to the Partnership any proceeds received by the General Partner for such Shares (provided that a transfer of Shares for Partnership Units pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof would not be considered a sale for such purposes); and (ii) if such Shares are not retransferred by the General Partner within thirty (30) days after the purchase thereof, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to cancel a number of Partnership Units of the appropriate class (rounded to the nearest whole Partnership Unit) held by the General Partner equal to the product attained by multiplying the number of such Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is the Conversion Factor.

        E.    Reimbursement not a Distribution.    If and to the extent any reimbursement made pursuant to this Section 7.4 is determined for federal income tax purposes not to constitute a payment of expenses of the Partnership, the amount so determined shall be treated as a distribution to the General Partner and there shall be a corresponding special allocation of gross income to the General Partner, for purposes of computing the Partners' Capital Accounts.

        Section 7.05. Outside Activities of the General Partner

        A.    General.    Without the Consent of the Outside Limited Partners, the General Partner shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any business other than in connection with the ownership, acquisition and disposition of Partnership Interests as a General Partner or Limited Partner and the management of the business of the Partnership and such activities as are incidental thereto. Without the Consent of the Outside Limited Partners, the assets of the General Partner shall be limited to Partnership Interests and permitted debt obligations of the Partnership (as contemplated by Section 7.5.F below), so that Shares and Partnership Units are completely fungible except as otherwise specifically provided herein; provided, that the General Partner shall be permitted to hold such bank accounts or similar instruments or account in its own name as it deems necessary to carry out its responsibilities and purposes as contemplated under this Agreement and its organizational documents; and, provided, further, that the General Partner shall be permitted to acquire, directly or through a Qualified REIT Subsidiary, up to a one percent (1%) interest in any partnership or limited liability company at least ninety-nine percent (99%) of the equity of which is owned by the Partnership. The General Partner and any of its Affiliates may acquire Limited Partnership Interests and shall be entitled to exercise all rights of a Limited Partner relating to such Limited Partnership Interests. If, at any time, the General Partner acquires material assets (other than on behalf of the Partnership), the definition of "Shares Amount" shall be adjusted, as agreed to by the General Partner and the Limited Partners (which agreement shall be evidenced by Consent of the Outside Limited Partners), to reflect the value of a share of capital stock (or other comparable equity interest) of the General Partner relative to the Deemed Partnership Interest Value of the related Partnership Unit.

        B.    Repurchase of Shares.    In the event the General Partner exercises its rights under the Articles of Incorporation to purchase Shares or otherwise elects to purchase from its stockholders Shares in connection with a stock repurchase or similar program or for the purpose of delivering such shares to satisfy an obligation under any dividend reinvestment or stock purchase program adopted by the General Partner, any employee stock purchase plan adopted by the General Partner or any similar obligation or arrangement undertaken by the General Partner in the future, then the General Partner

27

shall cause the Partnership to purchase from the General Partner that number of Partnership Units of the appropriate class equal to the product obtained by multiplying the number of Shares purchased by the General Partner times a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is the Conversion Factor, on the same terms and for the same aggregate price that the General Partner purchased such Shares.

        C.    Forfeiture of Shares.    In the event the Partnership or the General Partner acquires Shares as a result of the forfeiture of such Shares under a restricted or similar share plan, then the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to cancel that number of Partnership Units of the appropriate class equal to the number of Shares so acquired times one divided by the Conversion Factor, and, if the Partnership acquired such Shares, it shall transfer such Shares to the General Partner for cancellation.

        D.    Issuances of Shares.    After the Effective Date, the General Partner shall not grant, award, or issue any additional Shares (other than Shares issued pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof or pursuant to a dividend or distribution (including any stock split) of Shares to all of its stockholders), other equity securities of the General Partner or New Securities unless (i) the General Partner shall cause, pursuant to Section 4.2.A hereof, the Partnership to issue to the General Partner Partnership Interests or rights, options, warrants or securities of the Partnership having designations, preferences and other rights, all such that the economic interests are substantially the same as those of such additional Shares, other equity securities or New Securities, as the case may be, and (ii) the General Partner transfers to the Partnership, as an additional Capital Contribution, the proceeds from the grant, award, or issuance of such additional Shares, other equity securities or New Securities, as the case may be, or from the exercise of rights contained in such additional Shares, other equity securities or New Securities, as the case may be. Without limiting the foregoing, the General Partner is expressly authorized to issue additional Shares, other equity securities or New Securities, as the case may be, for less than fair market value, and the General Partner is expressly authorized, pursuant to Section 4.2.A hereof, to cause the Partnership to issue to the General Partner corresponding Partnership Interests, as long as (a) the General Partner concludes in good faith that such issuance is in the interests of the General Partner and the Partnership (for example, and not by way of limitation, the issuance of Shares and corresponding Partnership Units pursuant to a stock purchase plan providing for purchases of Shares, either by employees or stockholders, at a discount from fair market value or pursuant to employee stock options that have an exercise price that is less than the fair market value of the Shares, either at the time of issuance or at the time of exercise) and (b) the General Partner transfers all proceeds from any such issuance or exercise to the Partnership as an additional Capital Contribution.

        E.    Stock Option Plan.    If at any time or from time to time, the General Partner sells Shares pursuant to any Stock Option Plan, the General Partner shall transfer the net proceeds of the sale of such Shares to the Partnership as an additional Capital Contribution in exchange for an amount of additional Partnership Units equal to the number of Shares so sold divided by the Conversion Factor.

        F.    Funding Debt.    The General Partner may incur a Funding Debt, including, without limitation, a Funding Debt that is convertible into Shares or otherwise constitutes a class of New Securities, subject to the condition that the General Partner lends to the Partnership the net proceeds of such Funding Debt; provided, that the General Partner shall not be obligated to lend the net proceeds of any Funding Debt to the Partnership in a manner that would be inconsistent with the General Partner's ability to remain qualified as a REIT. If the General Partner enters into any Funding Debt, the loan to the Partnership shall be on comparable terms and conditions, including interest rate, repayment schedule and costs and expenses, as are applicable with respect to or incurred in connection with such Funding Debt.

        Section 7.06. Transactions with Affiliates

        A.    Transactions with Certain Affiliates.    Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement (other than Section 7.1.A hereof which shall not be considered authority for a transaction that otherwise

28

would be prohibited by this Section 7.6.A), the Partnership shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, transfer or convey any property to, or purchase any property from, or borrow funds from, or lend funds to, any Partner or any Affiliate of the Partnership or the General Partner or the General Partner Entity that is not also a Subsidiary of the Partnership, except pursuant to transactions that are on terms that are fair and reasonable and no less favorable to the Partnership than would be obtained from an unaffiliated third party.

        B.    Benefit Plans.    The General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion and without the approval of the Limited Partners, may propose and adopt on behalf of the Partnership employee benefit plans funded by the Partnership for the benefit of employees of the General Partner, the Partnership, Subsidiaries of the Partnership or any Affiliate of any of them in respect of services performed, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of the Partnership, the General Partner, or any of the Partnership's Subsidiaries.

        C.    Conflict Avoidance.    The General Partner is expressly authorized to enter into, in the name and on behalf of the Partnership, a right of first opportunity arrangement and other conflict avoidance agreements with various Affiliates of the Partnership and General Partner on such terms as the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, believes are advisable.

        Section 7.07. Indemnification

        A.    General.    The Partnership shall indemnify each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys fees and other legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from or in connection with any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative incurred by the Indemnitee and relating to the Partnership or the General Partner or the formation or operations of, or the ownership of property by, either of them as set forth in this Agreement in which any such Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, unless it is established by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction that: (i) the act or omission of the Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (ii) the Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. Without limitation, the foregoing indemnity shall extend to any liability of any Indemnitee, pursuant to a loan guarantee, contractual obligations for any indebtedness or other obligations or otherwise, for any indebtedness of the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership (including, without limitation, any indebtedness which the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership has assumed or taken subject to), and the General Partner is hereby authorized and empowered, on behalf of the Partnership, to enter into one or more indemnity agreements consistent with the provisions of this Section 7.7 in favor of any Indemnitee having or potentially having liability for any such indebtedness. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard of conduct set forth in this Section 7.7.A. The termination of any proceeding by conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, creates a rebuttable presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified in this Section 7.7.A with respect to the subject matter of such proceeding. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership, and any insurance proceeds from the liability policy covering the General Partner and any Indemnitees, and neither the General Partner nor any Limited Partner shall have any obligation to contribute to the capital of the Partnership or otherwise provide funds to enable the Partnership to fund its obligations under this Section 7.7.

29

        B.    Advancement of Expenses.    Reasonable expenses expected to be incurred by an Indemnitee shall be paid or reimbursed by the Partnership in advance of the final disposition of any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative made or threatened against an Indemnitee upon receipt by the Partnership of (i) a written affirmation by the Indemnitee of the Indemnitee's good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Partnership as authorized in this Section 7.7 A has been met and (ii) a written undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay the amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct has not been met.

        C.    No Limitation of Rights.    The indemnification provided by this Section 7.7 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee or any other Person may be entitled under any agreement, pursuant to any vote of the Partners, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity unless otherwise provided in a written agreement pursuant to which such Indemnitee is indemnified.

        D.    Insurance.    The Partnership may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the Indemnitees and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine against any liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by such Person in connection with the Partnership's activities, regardless of whether the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

        E.    Benefit Plan Fiduciary.    For purposes of this Section 7.7, (i) the Partnership shall be deemed to have requested an Indemnitee to serve as fiduciary of an employee benefit plan whenever the performance by it of its duties to the Partnership also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, it to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan, (ii) excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall constitute fines within the meaning of this Section 7.7 and (iii) actions taken or omitted by the Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan in the performance of its duties for a purpose reasonably believed by it to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which is not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership.

        F.    No Personal Liability for Limited Partners.    In no event may an Indemnitee subject any of the Partners to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement.

        G.    Interested Transactions.    An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.7 because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

        H.    Benefit.    The provisions of this Section 7.7 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.7, or any provision hereof, shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitation on the Partnership's liability to any Indemnitee under this Section 7.7 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or related to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

        I.    Indemnification Payments Not Distributions.    If and to the extent any payments to the General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.7 constitute gross income to the General Partner (as opposed to the repayment of advances made on behalf of the Partnership), such amounts shall constitute guaranteed payments within the meaning of Section 707(c) of the Code, shall be treated consistently therewith by the Partnership and all Partners, and shall not be treated as distributions for purposes of computing the Partners' Capital Accounts.

30

        Section 7.08. Liability of the General Partner

        A.    General.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the General Partner and its directors and officers shall not be liable for monetary damages to the Partnership, any Partners or any Assignees for losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived as a result of errors in judgment or mistakes of fact or law or of any act or omission if the General Partner or its directors and officers acted in good faith.

        B.    No Obligation to Consider Separate Interests of Limited Partners or Stockholders.    The Limited Partners expressly acknowledge that the General Partner is acting on behalf of the Partnership and the General Partner's stockholders collectively, that the General Partner is under no obligation to consider the separate interests of the Limited Partners (including, without limitation, the tax consequences to Limited Partners or Assignees or to such stockholders) in deciding whether to cause the Partnership to take (or decline to take) any actions. In the event of a conflict between the interests of the stockholders of the General Partner Entity on one hand and the Limited Partners on the other, the General Partner shall endeavor in good faith to resolve the conflict in manner not adverse to either the stockholders of the General Partner Entity or the Limited Partners; provided, however, that for so long as the General Partner Entity, directly, or the General Partner, owns a controlling interest in the Partnership, any such conflict that cannot be resolved in a manner not adverse to either the stockholders of the General Partner Entity or the Limited Partners shall be resolved in favor of the stockholders. The General Partner shall not be liable for monetary damages or otherwise for losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived by Limited Partners in connection with such decisions, provided that the General Partner has acted in good faith.

        C.    Actions of Agents.    Subject to its obligations and duties as General Partner set forth in Section 7.1.A above, the General Partner may exercise any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its employees or agents. The General Partner shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such employee or agent appointed by the General Partner in good faith.

        D.    Effect of Amendment.    Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.8 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the General Partner's liability to the Partnership and the Limited Partners under this Section 7.8 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

        E.    Certain Definitions.    Whenever in this Agreement the General Partner is permitted or required to make a decision (i) in its "sole discretion" or "discretion," or under a similar grant of authority or latitude, the General Partner shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires and may consider its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Partnership or the Limited Partners, or (ii) in its "good faith" or under another express standard, the General Partner shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standards imposed by this Agreement or by law or any other agreement contemplated herein.

        Section 7.09. Other Matters Concerning the General Partner

        A.    Reliance on Documents.    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 in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

        B.    Reliance on Advisors.    The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisors selected by

31

it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the opinion of such Persons as to matters which the 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.

        C.    Action Through Agents.    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 and a duly appointed attorney or attorneys-in-fact. Each such attorney shall, to the extent provided by the General Partner in the power of attorney, have full power and authority to do and perform all and every act and duty which is permitted or required to be done by the General Partner hereunder.

        D.    Actions to Maintain REIT Status or Avoid Taxation of the General Partner Entity.    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or the Act, any action of the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership or any decision of the General Partner to refrain from acting on behalf of the Partnership undertaken in the good faith belief that such action or omission is necessary or advisable in order (i) to protect the ability of the General Partner Entity to continue to qualify as a REIT or (ii) to allow the General Partner Entity to avoid incurring any liability for taxes under Section 857 or 4981 of the Code, is expressly authorized under this Agreement and is deemed approved by all of the Limited Partners.

        Section 7.10. 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, without consent or approval of any other Partner or Person, to encumber, sell or otherwise use in any manner any and all assets of the Partnership, to enter into any contracts on behalf of the Partnership and to take any and all actions on behalf of the Partnership, and such Person shall be entitled to deal with the General Partner as if the General Partner were the Partnership's sole party in interest, both legally and beneficially. Each Limited Partner hereby waives any and all defenses or other remedies which 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 (i) at the time of the execution and delivery of such certificate, document or instrument, this Agreement was in full force and effect, (ii) 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 (iii) 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.

        Section 7.11. Restrictions on General Partner's Authority

        A.    Consent Required.    The General Partner may not take any action in contravention of an express prohibition or limitation of this Agreement without the written Consent of (i) all Partners adversely affected or (ii) such lower percentage of the Limited Partnership Interests as may be specifically provided for under a provision of this Agreement or the Act.

        B.    Sale of All Assets of the Partnership.    Except as provided in Article XIII hereof and subject to Section 7.11.C and Section 7.11.D below, the General Partner may not, directly or indirectly, cause the Partnership to sell, exchange, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Partnership's assets in a single transaction or a series of related transactions (including by way of merger (including a triangular merger), consolidation or other combination with any other Persons) (i) if such merger, sale

32

or other transaction is in connection with a Termination Transaction permitted under Section 11.2.B hereof, without the Consent of the Partners holding a majority of Percentage Interests (including the effect of any Partnership Units held by the General Partner) or (ii) otherwise, without the Consent of the Outside Limited Partners.

        C.    Required Consent of Certain Partners.    (i) The General Partner may not, directly or indirectly, cause the Partnership to take any action prohibited by this Section 7.11.C without the requisite approval as provided in this Section 7.11.C.

        (1) For a period of twelve (12) years following the Effective Date, the General Partner may not, directly or indirectly, cause the Partnership to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the property located at 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx or any indirect interest therein (collectively, the "673 First Avenue Property") (other than an involuntary sale pursuant to foreclosure of the mortgage secured by the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property or otherwise, including pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure (provided that the General Partner may not execute any deed in lieu of foreclosure unless the maturity of the indebtedness secured by the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property has been accelerated) or a proceeding in connection with a bankruptcy) without the consent of the Partners who at the time of the proposed sale, exchange or other disposition (other than the General Partner or the General Partner Entity or any Subsidiary of either the General Partner or the General Partner Entity) hold seventy-five percent (75%) of the Partnership Units which were issued to or with respect to 673 First Realty Company in the Consolidation and which remain outstanding (whether held by the original recipient of such Partnership Units or by a successor or transferee of the original recipient, but not including the General Partner or the General Partner Entity or any Subsidiary of either the General Partner or the General Partner Entity) excluding any such Partnership Units the adjusted tax basis of which has been increased, in the hands of the holder or any predecessor holder thereof, to reflect fair market value through a taxable disposition or otherwise (referred to as "673 First Avenue Units"). In addition, during such twelve-year period, the General Partner may not, directly or indirectly, cause the Partnership to repay, earlier than one year prior to its stated maturity, any indebtedness secured by the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property without the consent of Partners holding seventy-five percent (75%) of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units, unless such repayment (a) is made in connection with the refinancing (on a basis such that the new debt would be considered a Nonrecourse Liability, or, as contemplated by clause (2) below, a Partner Nonrecourse Debt) of such indebtedness for an amount not less than the principal amount of such indebtedness on the date of such refinancing, with such refinancing indebtedness (1) providing for the least amount of principal amortization as is available on commercially reasonable terms and (2) permitting (but not requiring) a guarantee of such indebtedness by the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units (or the direct or indirect partners or members thereof) who elect to join in such guarantee in a form and on terms consistent with any guarantees by the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units (or the direct or indirect partners or members thereof) that may be in effect immediately prior to such refinancing, provided that the opportunity to provide such guarantee may be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, or (b) is made in connection with an involuntary sale pursuant to foreclosure of the mortgage secured by the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property or otherwise, including pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure (provided that the General Partner may not execute any deed in lieu of foreclosure unless the maturity of the indebtedness secured by the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property has been accelerated) or a proceeding in connection with a bankruptcy. During such twelve-year period, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts during the one-year period prior to the stated maturity of such indebtedness to cause the Operating Partnership to refinance (on a basis such that the new debt would be considered a Nonrecourse Liability, or, as contemplated by clause (2) below, a Partner Nonrecourse Debt) the indebtedness for an amount not less than the principal amount of such indebtedness on the date of such refinancing, provided such refinancing can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, with such refinancing indebtedness (1) providing for the least

33

amount of principal amortization as is available on commercially reasonable terms and (2) permitting (but not requiring) a guarantee of such indebtedness by the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units (or the direct or indirect partners or members thereof) who elect to join in such guarantee in a form and on terms consistent with any guarantees by the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units (or the direct or indirect partners or members thereof) that may be in effect immediately prior to such refinancing, provided that the opportunity to provide such guarantee may be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. Finally, during such twelve-year period, the General Partner shall not, without the consent of Partners holding seventy-five percent (75%) of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, incur indebtedness secured by the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property if, at the time such indebtedness is incurred, the aggregate amount of the indebtedness secured by the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property would exceed the greater of (i) seventy-five percent (75%) of the fair market value of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property (or the interest therein) securing such indebtedness or (ii) the then outstanding indebtedness being refinanced plus all costs (including prepayment fees, "breakage" payments and similar costs) incurred in connection with such refinancing.

        (2) For a period of twelve (12) years following the Effective Date, the General Partner may not, directly or indirectly, cause the Partnership to sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the property located at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx or any indirect interest therein (collectively, the "470 Park Avenue South Property") (other than an involuntary sale pursuant to foreclosure of the mortgage secured by the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property or otherwise, including pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure (provided that the General Partner may not execute any deed in lieu of foreclosure unless maturity of the indebtedness secured by the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property has been accelerated) or a proceeding in connection with a bankruptcy) without the consent of the Partners who at the time of the proposed sale, exchange or other disposition (other than the General Partner or the General Partner Entity or any Subsidiary of either the General Partner or the General Partner Entity) hold seventy-five percent (75%) of the Partnership Units which were issued to or with respect to the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, L.P. in the Consolidation and which remain outstanding (whether held by the original recipient of such Partnership Units or by a successor or transferee of the original recipient, but not including the General Partner or the General Partner Entity or any Subsidiary of either the General Partner or the General Partner Entity) excluding any such Partnership Units the adjusted tax basis of which has been increased, in the hands of the holder or any predecessor holder thereof, to reflect fair market value through a taxable disposition or otherwise (referred to as "470 Park Avenue South Units"). In addition, during such twelve-year period, the General Partner may not, directly or indirectly, cause the Partnership to repay, earlier than one year prior to its stated maturity, any indebtedness secured by the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property without the consent of Partners who hold seventy-five percent (75%) of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, unless such repayment (a) is made in connection with the refinancing (on a basis such that the new debt would he considered a Nonrecourse Liability, or, as contemplated by clause (2) below, a Partner Nonrecourse Debt) of such indebtedness for an amount not less than the principal amount of such indebtedness on the date of such refinancing, with such refinancing indebtedness (1) providing for the least amount of principal amortization as is available on commercially reasonable terms and (2) permitting (but not requiring) a guarantee of such indebtedness by the holders of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx (xx the direct or indirect partners or members thereof) who elect to join in such guarantee in a form and on terms consistent with any guarantees by the holders of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx (xx the direct or indirect partners or members thereof) that may be in effect immediately prior to such refinancing, provided that the opportunity to provide such guarantee may be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, or (b) is made in connection with an involuntary sale pursuant to foreclosure of the mortgage secured by the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property or otherwise, including pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure (provided that the General Partner may not execute any deed in lieu of foreclosure unless the maturity of the indebtedness secured by

34

the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property has been accelerated) or a proceeding in connection with a bankruptcy. During such twelve-year period, the General Partner shall use commercially reasonable efforts during the one-year period prior to the stated maturity of such indebtedness to cause the Operating Partnership to refinance (on a basis such that the new debt would be considered a Nonrecourse Liability, or, as contemplated by clause (2) below, a Partner Nonrecourse Debt) the indebtedness for an amount not less than the principal amount of such indebtedness on the date of such refinancing, provided such refinancing can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, with such refinancing indebtedness (1) providing for the least amount of principal amortization as is available on commercially reasonable terms and (2) permitting (but not requiring) a guarantee of such indebtedness by the holders of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx (xx the direct or indirect partners or members thereof) who elect to join in such guarantee in a form and on terms consistent with any guarantees by the holders of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx (xx the direct or indirect partners or members thereof) that may be in effect immediately prior to such refinancing, provided that the opportunity to provide such guarantee may be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. Finally, during such twelve-year period, the General Partner shall not, without the consent of Partners holding seventy-five percent (75%) of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, incur indebtedness secured by the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property if, at the time such indebtedness is incurred, the aggregate amount of the indebtedness secured by the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property would exceed the greater of (i) seventy-five percent (75%) of the fair market value of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property (or the interest therein) securing such indebtedness or (ii) the then outstanding indebtedness being refinanced plus all costs (including prepayment fees, "breakage" payments and similar costs) incurred in connection with such refinancing.

        (3) Subparagraphs (1) and (2) shall not apply to any transaction that involves the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property, as the case may be (which Property is referred to as the "Exchanged Property"), if such transaction qualifies as a like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Code in which no gain is recognized by the Partnership as long as the following conditions are satisfied: (x) such exchange is not with a "related party" within the meaning of Section 1031(f)(3) of the Code; (y) the property received in exchange for the Exchanged Property (referred to as the "Replacement Property") is secured by nonrecourse indebtedness in an amount not less than the outstanding principal amount of the nonrecourse indebtedness secured by the Exchanged Property at the time of the exchange, nor greater than the amount that would be permitted under Sections 7.11.C(1) or (2), as the case may be, with a maturity not earlier than, and a principal amortization rate not more rapid than, the maturity and principal amortization rate of such indebtedness secured by the Exchanged Property, which indebtedness permits (but does not require) a guarantee of such indebtedness by the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx (xx the direct or indirect partners or members thereof), as the case may be, who elect to join in such guarantee in a form on terms consistent with any guarantees by the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx (xx the direct or indirect partners or members thereof), as the case may be, that may be in effect immediately prior to the time of the exchange, and (z) the Replacement Property is thereafter treated for all purposes of the restrictions in this Section 7.11.C as the Exchanged Property and the indebtedness secured by such Replacement Property is subject to the same restrictions and agreements as apply with respect to the indebtedness secured by the Exchanged Property.

        (4) Subparagraphs (1) and (2) shall not apply to any transaction that involves the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property, as the case may be (which Property is referred to as the "Transferred Property"), if (x) such transaction does not result in, and is not otherwise in connection with, a dissolution of the Partnership, (y) such transaction qualifies as a contribution to a partnership under Section 721 of the Code in which no gain is recognized with

35

respect to the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property by the Partnership or the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, as the case may be (other than gain, if any, resulting solely because the share, if any, of indebtedness allocable to the holder of a Partnership Unit under Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3) (or any successor thereto) is reduced or eliminated), and (z) the entity to which such Transferred Property is transferred agrees, for the benefit of the holders of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx xx the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, as the case may be, that all of the restrictions of this Section 7.11.C shall apply to the Transferred Property and the indebtedness outstanding with respect thereto in the same manner and to the extent set forth in this Section 7.11.C and such agreement is reflected in the partnership agreement (or other comparable governing instrument) of the entity to which the Transferred Property is transferred.

        (5) Subparagraphs (1) and (2) shall not apply to any transaction that involves either a merger or consolidation of the Partnership with or into another entity that qualifies as a "partnership" for federal income tax purposes (the "Successor Partnership") or a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership to a Successor Partnership and dissolution of the Partnership in connection therewith (in either case, a "Consolidation Transaction") so long as (y) no gain is recognized with respect to the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property by the Partnership or the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, as the case may be, in connection with such Consolidation Transaction (other than gain, if any, resulting solely because the share, if any, of indebtedness allocable to the holder of a Partnership Unit under Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3) (or any successor thereto) is reduced or eliminated) and (y) the Successor Partnership agrees in writing, for the benefit of the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, as the case may be, that all of the restrictions of this Section 7.11.C shall apply to the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property and the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property and the indebtedness outstanding with respect thereto in the same manner and to the extent set forth in this Section 7.11.C.

        (6) Subparagraphs (1) and (2) shall not apply to any sale or other disposition transaction not otherwise described in Subparagraph (3), (4) or (5) (including a merger or consolidation) involving the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Property and/or the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property that is undertaken in connection with and as an integral part of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership (referred to as a "Liquidating Transaction") so long as the Liquidating Transaction is undertaken with the Consent of Certain Limited Partners.

        (i) Nothing herein shall be deemed to require that the Partnership or the General Partner take any action to avoid or prevent an involuntary disposition of any property, whether pursuant to foreclosure of a mortgage secured by such property or otherwise, including pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure where the maturity of the related indebtedness has been accelerated or a proceeding in connection with a bankruptcy.

        (ii) Nothing herein shall prevent the sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of any property pursuant to the dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership in accordance with Article XIII hereof (other than Section 13.1(v), which shall be subject to this Section 7.11.C).

        D.    Merger or Consolidation in Which the Partnership is Not the Surviving Entity.    In the event that the Partnership is to merge or consolidate with or into any other entity in a transaction in which holders of Partnership Units will receive consideration other than cash or equity securities that are Publicly Traded (an "Equity Merger") and such Equity Merger would be prohibited by Section 7.11.C but for the application of Section 7.11.C(5), then (in addition to any Consent requirements under

36

Section 7.11.B and Section 7.11.C) the Equity Merger shall require the Consent of Certain Limited Partners unless:

        (i) the partnership agreement, limited liability agreement or other operative governing documents (the "Charter Documents") of the entity that is the surviving entity in such Equity Merger contain provisions that are comparable in all material respects to, or the entity that is the surviving entity in such Equity Merger otherwise agrees in writing, for the benefit of the holders of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Units and the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, to restrictions that are comparable in all material respects to the provisions of Section 4.2.A, Article V and Article VI (except for differences that would be permitted pursuant to Sections 4.2, 5.1.E, 5.4, 6.2 and 14.1.B(3) if such changes were to be made to this Agreement), Section 7.1.A (second sentence only), Section 7.6.A, Section 7.11.A, Section 7.11.B, this Section 7.11.D, Section 8.6 (and all defined terms set forth in Article I that relate to the Redemption Right), Section 11.2, Section 13.1, Section 13.2.A(3) (except as permitted pursuant to Sections 4.2, 5.4, 6.2 and 14.1 B(3)), Section 14.1.C, Section 14.1.D, and Section 14.2, all as in effect immediately prior to the Equity Merger; and

        (iii) the Equity Merger would not either cause a holder of a Partnership Unit to be a general partner or to have liability equivalent to that of a general partner in a partnership or otherwise modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner under this Agreement.

        Section 7.12. Loans by Third Parties

        The Partnership may incur Debt, or enter into similar credit, guarantee, financing or refinancing arrangements for any purpose (including, without limitation, in connection with any acquisition of property) with any Person that is not the General Partner upon such terms as the General Partner determines appropriate; provided that, the Partnership shall not incur any Debt that is recourse to the General Partner, except to the extent otherwise agreed to by the General Partner in its sole discretion.

The transaction of any such business by the General Partner, any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner, the Partnership or any of their Affiliates, in their capacity as such, shall not affect, impair or eliminate the limitations on the liability of the Limited Partners or Assignees under this Agreement.

        Section 8.04. Return of Capital

        Except pursuant to the right of redemption set forth in Section 8.6 below, no Limited Partner shall be entitled to the withdrawal or return of its Capital Contribution, except to the extent of distributions made pursuant to this Agreement or upon termination of the Partnership as provided herein.

        Section 8.05. Rights of Limited Partners Relating to the Partnership

        A.    General.    In addition to other rights provided by this Agreement or by the Act, and except as limited by Section 8.5.D below, each Limited Partner shall have the right, for a purpose reasonably

38

related to such Limited Partner's interest as a limited partner in the Partnership, upon written demand with a statement of the purpose of such demand and at such Limited Partner's own expense:

(1)

to obtain a copy of the most recent annual and quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the General Partner Entity pursuant to the Exchange Act;



(2)

to obtain a copy of the Partnership's federal, state and local income tax returns for each Partnership Year;



(3)

to obtain a current list of the name and last known business, residence or mailing address of each Partner;



(4)

to obtain a copy of this Agreement and the Certificate and all amendments thereto, together with executed copies of all powers of attorney pursuant to which this Agreement, the Certificate and all amendments thereto have been executed; and



(5)

to obtain true and full information regarding the amount of cash and a description and statement of any other property or services contributed by each Partner and which each Partner has agreed to contribute in the future, and the date on which each became a Partner.

        B.    Notice of Conversion Factor.    The Partnership shall notify each Limited Partner upon request of the then current Conversion Factor and any changes that have been made thereto.

        C.    Notice of Extraordinary Transaction of the General Partner Entity.    The General Partner Entity shall not make any extraordinary distributions of cash or property to its stockholders or effect a merger (including without limitation, a triangular merger), a sale of all or substantially all of its assets or any other similar extraordinary transaction without notifying the Limited Partners of its intention to make such distribution or effect such merger, sale or other extraordinary transaction at least twenty (20) Business Days prior to the record date to determine stockholders eligible to receive such distribution or to vote upon the approval of such merger, sale or other extraordinary transaction (or, if no such record date is applicable, at least twenty (20) Business Days before consummation of such merger, sale or other extraordinary transaction). This provision for such notice shall not be deemed (i) to permit any transaction that otherwise is prohibited by this Agreement or requires a Consent of the Partners or (ii) to require a Consent of the Limited Partners to a transaction that does not otherwise require Consent under this Agreement. Each Limited Partner agrees, as a condition to the receipt of the notice pursuant hereto, to keep confidential the information set forth therein until such time as the General Partner Entity has made public disclosure thereof and to use such information during such period of confidentiality solely for purposes of determining whether or not to exercise the Redemption Right; provided, however, that a Limited Partner may disclose such information to its attorney, accountant and/or financial advisor for purposes of obtaining advice with respect to such exercise so long as such attorney, accountant and/or financial advisor agrees to receive and hold such information subject to this confidentiality requirement.

        D.    Confidentiality.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.5, the General Partner may keep confidential from the Limited Partners, for such period of time as the General Partner determines in its sole and absolute discretion to be reasonable, any information that (i) the General Partner reasonably believes to be in the nature of trade secrets or other information the disclosure of which the General Partner in good faith believes is not in the best interests of the Partnership or could damage the Partnership or its business or (ii) the Partnership is required by law or by agreements with unaffiliated third parties to keep confidential.

        Section 8.06. Redemption Right

        A.    General.    (i) Subject to Section 8.6.C below, on or after the date two (2) years after the issuance of a Partnership Unit to a Limited Partner pursuant to Article IV hereof (which two-year period shall commence upon the issuance of such Partnership Unit regardless of whether such

39

Partnership Unit is designated upon issuance as a Class A Unit, a Class B Unit or otherwise and shall include the period of time from the date such Partnership Unit is issued to such Limited Partner as other than a Class A Unit until the date such Partnership Unit is converted automatically to a Class A Unit pursuant to Section 4.2.C hereof), or on or after such date prior to the expiration of such two-year period as the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, designates with respect to any or all Class A Units then outstanding, the holder of a Partnership Unit (if other than the General Partner or the General Partner Entity) shall have the right (the "Redemption Right") to require the Partnership to redeem such Partnership Unit on a Specified Redemption Date and at a redemption price equal to and in the form of the Cash Amount to be paid by the Partnership. Any such Redemption Right shall be exercised pursuant to a Notice of Redemption delivered to the Partnership (with a copy to the General Partner) by the Limited Partner who is exercising the Redemption Right (the "Redeeming Partner"). A Limited Partner may not exercise the Redemption Right for less than one thousand (1,000) Partnership Units or, if such Redeeming Partner holds less than one thousand (1,000) Partnership Units, for less than all of the Partnership Units held by such Redeeming Partner.

        (i) The Redeeming Partner shall have no right with respect to any Partnership Units so redeemed to receive any distributions paid after the Specified Redemption Date.

        (ii) The Assignee of any Limited Partner may exercise the rights of such Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 8.6 and such Limited Partner shall be deemed to have assigned such rights to such Assignee and shall be bound by the exercise of such rights by such Limited Partner's Assignee. In connection with any exercise of the such rights by such Assignee on behalf of such Limited Partner, the Cash Amount shall be paid by the Partnership directly to such Assignee and not to such Limited Partner.

        (iii) In the event that the General Partner provides notice to the Limited Partners pursuant to Section 8.5.C hereof, the Redemption Right shall be exercisable, without regard to whether the Partnership Units have been outstanding for any specified period, during the period commencing on the date on which the General Partner provides such notice and ending on the record date to determine stockholders eligible to receive such distribution or to vote upon the approval of such merger, sale or other extraordinary transaction (or, if no record date is applicable, at least twenty (20) business days before the consummation of such merger, sale or other extraordinary transaction). In the event that this subparagraph (iv) applies, the Specified Redemption Date is the date on which the Partnership and the General Partner receive notice of exercise of the Redemption Right, rather than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the notice of redemption.

        B.    General Partner Assumption of Right.    (i) If a Limited Partner has delivered a Notice of Redemption, the General Partner may, in its sole and absolute discretion (subject to any limitations on ownership and transfer of Shares set forth in the Articles of Incorporation), elect to assume directly and satisfy a Redemption Right by paying to the Redeeming Partner either the Cash Amount or the Shares Amount, as the General Partner determines in its sole and absolute discretion (provided that payment of the Redemption Amount in the form of Shares shall be in Shares registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and listed for trading on the exchange or national market on which the Shares are Publicly Traded, and provided, further that, in the event that the Shares are not Publicly Traded at the time a Redeeming Partner exercises its Redemption Right, the Redemption Amount shall be paid only in the form of the Cash Amount unless the Redeeming Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, consents to payment of the Redemption Amount in the form of the Shares Amount), on the Specified Redemption Date, whereupon the General Partner shall acquire the Partnership Units offered for redemption by the Redeeming Partner and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the owner of such Partnership Units. Unless the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall exercise its right to assume directly and satisfy the Redemption Right, the General Partner shall not have any obligation to the Redeeming Partner or to the Partnership with respect to the Redeeming Partner's exercise of the Redemption Right. In the event the General Partner shall exercise its right to

40

satisfy the Redemption Right in the manner described in the first sentence of this Section 8.6.B and shall fully perform its obligations in connection therewith, the Partnership shall have no right or obligation to pay any amount to the Redeeming Partner with respect to such Redeeming Partner's exercise of the Redemption Right, and each of the Redeeming Partner, the Partnership and the General Partner shall, for federal income tax purposes, treat the transaction between the General Partner and the Redeeming Partner as a sale of the Redeeming Partner's Partnership Units to the General Partner. Nothing contained in this Section 8.6.B shall imply any right of the General Partner to require any Limited Partner to exercise the Redemption Right afforded to such Limited Partner pursuant to Section 8.6.A above.

        (iv) In the event that the General Partner determines to pay the Redeeming Partner the Redemption Amount in the form of Shares, the total number of Shares to be paid to the Redeeming Partner in exchange for the Redeeming Partner's Partnership Units shall be the applicable Shares Amount. In the event this amount is not a whole number of Shares, the Redeeming Partner shall be paid (i) that number of Shares which equals the nearest whole number less than such amount plus (ii) an amount of cash which the General Partner determines, in its reasonable discretion, to represent the fair value of the remaining fractional Share which would otherwise be payable to the Redeeming Partner.

        (v) Each Redeeming Partner agrees to execute such documents as the General Partner may reasonably require in connection with the issuance of Shares upon exercise of the Redemption Right.

        C.    Exceptions to Exercise of Redemption Right.    Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 8.6.A and 8.6.B above, a Partner shall not be entitled to exercise the Redemption Right pursuant to Section 8.6.A above if (but only as long as) the delivery of Shares to such Partner on the Specified Redemption Date (i) would be prohibited under the Articles of Incorporation or (ii) as long as the Shares are Publicly Traded, would be prohibited under applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations (in each case regardless of whether the General Partner would in fact assume and satisfy the Redemption Right).

        D.    No Liens on Partnership Units Delivered for Redemption.    Each Limited Partner covenants and agrees with the General Partner that all Partnership Units delivered for redemption shall be delivered to the Partnership or the General Partner, as the case may be, free and clear of all liens, and, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither the General Partner nor the Partnership shall be under any obligation to acquire Partnership Units which are or may be subject to any liens. Each Limited Partner further agrees that, in the event any state or local property transfer tax is payable as a result of the transfer of its Partnership Units to the Partnership or the General Partner, such Limited Partner shall assume and pay such transfer tax.

        E.    Additional Partnership Interests.    In the event that the Partnership issues Partnership Interests to any Additional Limited Partner pursuant to Article IV hereof, the General Partner shall make such amendments to this Section 8.6 as it determines are necessary to reflect the issuance of such Partnership Interests (including setting forth any restrictions on the exercise of the Redemption Right with respect to such Partnership Interests).

        Section 10.03. Tax Matters Partner

        A.    General.    The General Partner shall be the "tax matters partner" of the Partnership for federal income tax purposes.

        (1) to enter into any settlement with the IRS with respect to any administrative or judicial proceedings for the adjustment of Partnership items required to be taken into account by a Partner for income tax purposes (such administrative proceedings being referred to as a "tax audit" and such judicial proceedings being referred to as "judicial review"), and in the settlement agreement the tax matters partner may expressly state that such agreement shall bind all Partners, except that such settlement agreement shall not bind any Partner (i) who (within the time prescribed pursuant to the Code and Regulations) files a statement with the IRS providing that the tax matters partner shall not have the authority to enter into a settlement agreement on behalf of such Partner or (ii) who is a "notice partner" (as defined in Section 6231(a)(8) of the Code) or a member of a "notice group" (as defined in Section 6223(b)(2) of the Code);

        (2) in the event that a notice of a final administrative adjustment at the Partnership level of any item required to be taken into account by a Partner for tax purposes (a "final adjustment") is mailed to the tax matters partner, to seek judicial review of such final adjustment, including the filing of a petition for readjustment with the Tax Court or the filing of a complaint for refund with the United States Claims Court or the District Court of the United States for the district in which the Partnership's principal place of business is located;

        (3) to intervene in any action brought by any other Partner for judicial review of a final adjustment;

        (4) to file a request for an administrative adjustment with the IRS at any time and, if any part of such request is not allowed by the IRS, to file an appropriate pleading (petition or complaint) for judicial review with respect to such request;

        (5) to enter into an agreement with the IRS to extend the period for assessing any tax which is attributable to any item required to be taken into account by a Partner for tax purposes, or an item affected by such item; and

        C.    Reimbursement.    The tax matters partner shall receive no compensation for its services. All third party costs and expenses incurred by the tax matters partner in performing its duties as such (including legal and accounting fees and expenses) shall be borne by the Partnership. Nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the Partnership from engaging an accounting firm or a law firm to assist the tax matters partner in discharging its duties hereunder, as long as the compensation paid by the Partnership for such services is reasonable.

        Section 10.04. Organizational Expenses

        The Partnership shall elect to deduct expenses, if any, incurred by it in organizing the Partnership ratably over a sixty (60) month period as provided in Section 709 of the Code.

        Each Limited Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership to withhold from or pay on behalf of or with respect to such Limited Partner any amount of federal, state, local, or foreign taxes that the General Partner determines that the Partnership is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Limited Partner pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes required to be withheld or paid by the Partnership pursuant to Section 1441, 1442, 1445, or 1446 of the Code. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Limited Partner shall constitute a recourse loan by the Partnership to such Limited Partner, which loan shall be repaid by such Limited Partner within fifteen (15) days after notice from the General Partner that such payment must be made unless (i) the Partnership withholds such payment from a distribution which would otherwise be made to the Limited Partner or (ii) the General Partner determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such payment may be satisfied out of the available funds of the Partnership which would, but for such payment, be distributed to the Limited Partner. Any amounts withheld pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) shall be treated as having been distributed to such Limited Partner. Each Limited Partner hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Partnership a security interest in such Limited Partner's Partnership Interest to secure such Limited Partner's obligation to pay to the Partnership any amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 10.5. In the event that a Limited Partner fails to pay any amounts owed to the Partnership pursuant to this Section 10.5 when due, the General Partner may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to make the payment to the Partnership on behalf of such defaulting Limited Partner, and in such event shall be deemed to have loaned such amount to such defaulting Limited Partner and shall succeed to all rights and remedies of the Partnership as against such defaulting Limited Partner (including, without limitation, the right to receive distributions). Any amounts payable by a Limited Partner hereunder shall bear interest at the base rate on corporate loans at large United States money center commercial banks, as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal, plus four (4) percentage points (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate) from the date such amount is due (i.e., fifteen (15) days after demand) until such amount is paid in full. Each Limited Partner shall take such actions as the Partnership or the General Partner shall request in order to perfect or enforce the security interest created hereunder.

ARTICLE XI.

TRANSFERS AND WITHDRAWALS

        Section 11.01. Transfer

        A.    Definition.    The term "transfer," when used in this Article XI with respect to a Partnership Interest or a Partnership Unit, shall be deemed to refer to a transaction by which the General Partner purports to assign all or any part of its General Partnership Interest to another Person or by which a Limited Partner purports to assign all or any part of its Limited Partnership Interest to another Person, and includes a sale, assignment, gift, pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation, mortgage, exchange or any other disposition by law or otherwise. The term "transfer" when used in this Article XI does not include any redemption or repurchase of Partnership Units by the Partnership from a Partner (including the General Partner) or acquisition of Partnership Units from a Limited Partner by the General Partner pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof or otherwise. No part of the interest of a Limited Partner shall be subject to the claims of any creditor, any spouse for alimony or support, or to legal process, and may not be voluntarily or involuntarily alienated or encumbered except as may be specifically provided for in this Agreement.

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

        Section 11.02. Transfers of Partnership Interests of General Partner

        A. Except for transfers of Partnership Units to the Partnership as provided in Section 7.5 or Section 8.6 hereof, the General Partner may not transfer any of its Partnership Interest (including both its General Partnership Interest and its Limited Partnership Interest) except in connection with a transaction described in Section 11.2.B below or as otherwise expressly permitted under this Agreement), nor shall the General Partner withdraw as General Partner except in connection with a transaction described in Section 11.2.B below.

        B. The General Partner shall not engage in any merger (including a triangular merger), consolidation or other combination with or into another person, sale of all or substantially all of its assets or any reclassification, recapitalization or change of outstanding Shares (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination as described in the definition of "Conversion Factor") ("Termination Transaction"), unless the Termination Transaction has been approved by the Consent of the Partners holding a majority or more of the then outstanding Percentage Interests (including the effect of any Partnership Units held by the General Partner) and in connection with which all Limited Partners either will receive, or will have the right to elect to receive, for each Partnership Unit an amount of cash, securities, or other property equal to the product of the Conversion Factor and the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property paid to a holder of Shares, if any, corresponding to such Partnership Unit that was issued pursuant to Section 4.2.A hereof in consideration of one such Share at any time during the period from and after the date on which the Termination Transaction is consummated; provided that, if, in connection with the Termination Transaction, a purchase, tender or exchange offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Shares, each holder of Partnership Units shall receive, or shall have the right to elect to receive, the greatest amount of cash, securities, or other property which such holder would have received had it exercised the Redemption Right and received Shares in exchange for its Partnership Units immediately prior to the expiration of such purchase, tender or exchange offer and had thereupon accepted such purchase, tender or exchange offer.

45

        Section 11.03. Limited Partners' Rights to Transfer

        A.    General.    Subject to the provisions of Sections 11.3.C, 11.3.D, 11.3.E, 11.4 and 11.6 below, prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date, a Limited Partner may not transfer any of such Limited Partner's rights as a Limited Partner without the consent of the General Partner, which consent the General Partner may withhold in its sole discretion if it determines that such a transfer would cause any or all of the Limited Partners other than the Limited Partner seeking to transfer its rights as a Limited Partner to be subject to tax liability as a result of such transfer. Any purported transfer attempted in violation of the foregoing sentence shall be deemed void ab initio and shall have no force or effect. Subject to the provisions of Sections 11.3.C, 11.3.D, 11.3.E, 11.4 and 11.6 below, on or after the second anniversary of the Effective Date, a Limited Partner (other than the General Partner) may transfer, with or without the consent of the General Partner, all or any portion of its Partnership Interest, or any of such Limited Partner's rights as a Limited Partner, provided that prior written notice of such proposed transfer is delivered to the General Partner.

        B.    Incapacitated Limited Partners.    If a Limited Partner is subject to Incapacity, the executor, administrator, trustee, committee, guardian, conservator or receiver of such Limited Partner's estate shall have all the rights of a Limited Partner, but not more rights than those enjoyed by other Limited Partners for the purpose of settling or managing the estate and such power as the Incapacitated Limited Partner possessed to transfer all or any part of its interest in the Partnership. The Incapacity of a Limited Partner, in and of itself, shall not dissolve or terminate the Partnership.

        C.    No Transfers Violating Securities Laws.    The General Partner may prohibit any transfer of Partnership Units by a Limited Partner if, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership, such transfer would require filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act or would otherwise violate any federal, or state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Partnership Unit.

        D.    No Transfers Affecting Tax Status of Partnership.    No transfer of Partnership Units by a Limited Partner (including a redemption or exchange pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof) may be made to any Person if (i) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it would result in the Partnership being treated as an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes or would result in a termination of the Partnership for federal income tax purposes (except as a result of the redemption or exchange for Shares of all Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners other than the General Partner or the General Partner Entity or any Subsidiary of either the General Partner or the General Partner Entity or pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted under Section 7 11.B or Section 11.2 hereof), (ii) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it would adversely affect the ability of the General Partner Entity to continue to qualify as a REIT or would subject the General Partner Entity to any additional taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code or (iii) such transfer is effectuated through an "established securities market" or a "secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)" within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code.

        E.    No Transfers to Holders of Nonrecourse Liabilities.    No pledge or transfer of any Partnership Units may be made to a lender to the Partnership, or to any Person who is related (within the meaning of Section 1.752-4(b) of the Regulations) to any lender to the Partnership, whose loan constitutes a Nonrecourse Liability without the consent of the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion; provided that, as a condition to such consent the lender will be required to enter into an arrangement with the Partnership and the General Partner to exchange or redeem for the Redemption Amount any Partnership Units transferred or in which a security interest is held simultaneously with the time at which such lender would be deemed to be a partner in the Partnership for purposes of allocating liabilities to such lender under Section 752 of the Code.

        F.    Transfer Register.    The General Partner shall keep a register for the Partnership on which the transfer, pledge or release of Partnership Units shall be shown and pursuant to which entries shall be

46

made to effect all transfers, pledges or releases as required by Sections 8-207, 8-313(1) and 8-321 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as amended, in effect in the States of New York and Delaware; provided, however, that if there is any conflict between such requirements, the provisions of the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code shall govern. The General Partner shall (i) place proper entries in such register clearly showing each transfer and each pledge and grant of security interest and the transfer and assignment pursuant thereto, such entries to be endorsed by the General Partner and (ii) maintain the register and make the register available for inspection by all of the Partners and their pledgees at all times during the term of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall be deemed a consent to any pledge or transfer otherwise prohibited under this Agreement.

        Section 11.04. Substituted Limited Partners

        A.    Consent of General Partner.    No Limited Partner shall have the right to substitute a transferee as a Limited Partner in its place without the consent of the General Partner to the admission of a transferee of the interest of a Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 11.4 as a Substituted Limited Partner, which consent may be given or withheld by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion. The General Partner's failure or refusal to permit a transferee of any such interests to become a Substituted Limited Partner shall not give rise to any cause of action against the Partnership or any Partner.

        B.    Rights of Substituted Limited Partner.    A transferee who has been admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner in accordance with this Article XI shall have all the rights and powers and be subject to all the restrictions and liabilities of a Limited Partner under this Agreement. The admission of any transferee as a Substituted Limited Partner shall be conditioned upon the transferee executing and delivering to the Partnership an acceptance of all the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 15.11 hereof and such other documents or instruments as may be required to effect the admission).

        C.    Amendment and Restatement of Exhibit A.    Upon the admission of a Substituted Limited Partner, the General Partner shall amend and restate Exhibit A hereto to reflect the name, address, Capital Account, number of Partnership Units, and Percentage Interest of such Substituted Limited Partner and to eliminate or adjust, if necessary, the name, address, Capital Account and Percentage Interest of the predecessor of such Substituted Limited Partner.

        Section 11.05. Assignees

        If the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, does not consent to the admission of any permitted transferee under Section 11.3 above as a Substituted Limited Partner, as described in Section 11.4 above, such transferee shall be considered an Assignee for purposes of this Agreement. An Assignee shall be entitled to all the rights of an assignee of a limited partnership interest under the Act, including the right to receive distributions from the Partnership and the share of Net Income, Net Losses, gain, loss and Recapture Income attributable to the Partnership Units assigned to such transferee, and shall have the rights granted to the Limited Partners under Section 8.6 hereof but shall not be deemed to be a holder of Partnership Units for any other purpose under this Agreement, and shall not be entitled to vote such Partnership Units in any matter presented to the Limited Partners for a vote (such Partnership Units being deemed to have been voted on such matter in the same proportion as all other Partnership Units held by Limited Partners are voted). In the event any such transferee desires to make a further assignment of any such Partnership Units, such transferee shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article XI to the same extent and in the same manner as any Limited Partner desiring to make an assignment of Partnership Units.

        Section 11.06. General Provisions

47

        A.    Withdrawal of Limited Partner.    No Limited Partner may withdraw from the Partnership other than as a result of a permitted transfer of all of such Limited Partner's Partnership Units in accordance with this Article XI or pursuant to redemption of all of its Partnership Units under Section 8.6 hereof.

Solely for purposes of making such allocations, each of such items for the calendar month in which the transfer or redemption occurs shall be allocated to the Person who is a Partner as of midnight on the last day of said month. All distributions of Available Cash attributable to any Partnership Unit with respect to which the Partnership Record Date is before the date of such transfer, assignment or redemption shall be made to the transferor Partner or the Redeeming Partner, as the case may be, and, in the case of a transfer or assignment other than a redemption, all distributions of Available Cash thereafter attributable to such Partnership Unit shall be made to the transferee Partner.

        E.    Additional Restrictions.    In addition to any other restrictions on transfer herein contained, including without limitation the provisions of this Article XI, in no event may any transfer or assignment of a Partnership Interest by any Partner (including pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof) be made without the express consent of the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, (i) to any person or entity who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own a Partnership Interest; (ii) in violation of applicable law; (iii) of any component portion of a Partnership Interest, such as the Capital Account, or rights to distributions, separate and apart from all other components of a Partnership Interest; (iv) if in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership such transfer would cause a termination of the Partnership for federal or state income tax purposes (except as a result of the redemption or exchange for Shares of all Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners or pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted under Section 7.11.B or Section 11.2 hereof); (v) if in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership, such transfer would cause the Partnership to cease to be classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes (except as a result of the redemption or exchange for Shares of all Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners or pursuant to a transaction expressly permitted under Section 7.11.B or Section 11.2 hereof); (vi) if such transfer would cause the Partnership to become, with respect to any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a "party-in-interest" (as defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA) or a "disqualified person" (as defined in Section 4975(c) of the Code); (vii) if such transfer would, in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership, cause any portion of the assets of the Partnership to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to Department of Labor Regulations Section 2510.1101; (viii) if such transfer requires the registration of such Partnership Interest pursuant to any applicable federal or state securities laws; (ix) if such transfer is effectuated through an "established securities market" or a "secondary market" (or the substantial equivalent thereof) within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code or such transfer causes the Partnership to become a "publicly traded partnership," as such term is defined in Section 469(k)(2) or Section 7704(b)

48

of the Code; (x) if such transfer subjects the Partnership to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 or the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, each as amended; (xi) if the transferee or assignee of such Partnership Interest is unable to make the representations set forth in Section 15.15 hereof or such transfer could otherwise adversely affect the ability of the General Partner Entity to remain qualified as a REIT; or (xii) if in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, such transfer would adversely affect the ability of the General Partner Entity to continue to qualify as a REIT or subject the General Partner Entity to any additional taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code.

        F.    Avoidance of "Publicly Traded Partnership" Status.    The General Partner shall monitor the transfers of interests in the Partnership to determine (i) if such interests are being traded on an "established securities market" or a "secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)" within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code and (ii) whether additional transfers of interests would result in the Partnership being unable to qualify for at least one of the "safe harbors" set forth in Regulations Section 1.7704-1 (or such other guidance subsequently published by the IRS setting forth safe harbors under which interests will not be treated as "readily tradable on a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof") within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code (the "Safe Harbors"). The General Partner shall take all steps reasonably necessary or appropriate to prevent any trading of interests or any recognition by the Partnership of transfers made on such markets and, except as otherwise provided herein, to insure that at least one of the Safe Harbors is met.

        B.    Deferred Liquidation.    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.2.A above which require liquidation of the assets of the Partnership, 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 Partnership's assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners, the Liquidator may, in its sole and absolute discretion, defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any assets except those necessary to satisfy liabilities of the Partnership (including to those Partners as creditors) or distribute to the Partners, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.2.A above, undivided interests in such Partnership 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 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.

        Section 13.03. Compliance with Timing Requirements of Regulations

        Subject to Section 13.4 below, in the event the Partnership is "liquidated" within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), distributions shall be made pursuant to this Article XIII to the General Partner and Limited Partners who have positive Capital Accounts in compliance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2). If any Partner has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), such Partner shall have no obligation to make any

51

contribution to the capital of the Partnership with respect to such deficit, and such deficit shall not be considered a debt owed to the Partnership or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever. In the discretion of the General Partner, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the General Partner and Limited Partners pursuant to this Article XIII may be: (A) distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the General Partner and Limited Partners for the purposes of liquidating Partnership assets, collecting amounts owed to the Partnership and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership or of the General Partner arising out of or in connection with the Partnership (in which case the assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the General Partner and Limited Partners from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the General Partner, in the same proportions as the amount distributed to such trust by the Partnership would otherwise have been distributed to the General Partner and Limited Partners pursuant to this Agreement); or (B) withheld to provide a reasonable reserve for Partnership liabilities (contingent or otherwise) and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Partnership, provided that such withheld amounts shall be distributed to the General Partner and Limited Partners as soon as practicable.

        Section 13.04. Deemed Distribution and Recontribution

        Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article XIII, in the event the Partnership is deemed liquidated within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g) but no Liquidating Event has occurred, the Partnership's property shall not be liquidated, the Partnership's liabilities shall not be paid or discharged and the Partnership's affairs shall not be wound up. Instead, for federal income tax purposes and for purposes of maintaining Capital Accounts pursuant to Exhibit B hereto, the Partnership shall be deemed to have distributed its assets in kind to the General Partner and Limited Partners, who shall be deemed to have assumed and taken such assets subject to all Partnership liabilities, all in accordance with their respective Capital Accounts. Immediately thereafter, the General Partner and Limited Partners shall be deemed to have recontributed the Partnership assets in kind to the Partnership, which shall be deemed to have assumed and taken such assets subject to all such liabilities.

        Section 13.05. Rights of Limited Partners

        Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Limited Partner shall look solely to the assets of the Partnership for the return of its Capital Contributions and shall have no right or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Partnership. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no Limited Partner shall have priority over any other Limited Partner as to the return of its Capital Contributions, distributions, or allocations.

        Section 13.06. Notice of Dissolution

        In the event a Liquidating Event occurs or an event occurs that would, but for provisions of an election or objection by one or more Partners pursuant to Section 13.1 above, result in a dissolution of the Partnership, the General Partner shall, within thirty (30) days thereafter, provide written notice thereof to each of the Partners and to all other parties with whom the Partnership regularly conducts business (as determined in the discretion of the General Partner) and shall publish notice thereof in a newspaper of general circulation in each place in which the Partnership regularly conducts business (as determined in the discretion of the General Partner).

        Section 13.07. Cancellation of Certificate of Limited Partnership

        Upon the completion of the liquidation of the Partnership cash and property as provided in Section 13.2 above, the Partnership shall be terminated and the Certificate and all qualifications of the Partnership as a foreign limited partnership in jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware shall be canceled and such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Partnership shall be taken.

52

        Section 13.08. Reasonable Time for Winding Up

        A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 13.2 above, in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding-up, and the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect among the Partners during the period of liquidation.

        Section 13.09. Waiver of Partition

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

        Section 13.10. Liability of Liquidator

        The Liquidator shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Partnership in the same manner and to the same degree as an Indemnitee may be indemnified pursuant to Section 7.11 hereof.

For purposes of obtaining a written vote, the General Partner may require a response within a reasonable specified time, but not less than fifteen (15) days, and failure to respond in such time period shall constitute a vote which is consistent with the General Partner's recommendation with respect to the proposal. Except as provided in Section 14.1.B, 14.1.C or 14.1.D below, a proposed amendment shall be adopted and be effective as an amendment hereto if it is approved by the General Partner and it receives the Consent of Partners holding a majority of the Percentage Interests of the Limited Partners (including Limited Partnership Interests held by the General Partner).

        B.    Amendments Not Requiring Limited Partner Approval.    Notwithstanding Section 14.1.A or Section 14.1.C hereof, the General Partner shall have the power, without the Consent of the Limited Partners, to amend this Agreement as may be required to facilitate or implement any of the following purposes:

        D.    Other Amendments Requiring Certain Limited Partner Approval.    Notwithstanding anything in this Section 14.1 to the contrary, this Agreement shall not be amended with respect to any Partner adversely affected without the Consent of such Partner adversely affected if such amendment would

54

(i) convert a Limited Partner's interest in the Partnership into a general partner's interest, (ii) modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner, (iii) amend Section 7.11.A, (iv) amend Article V, Article VI, or Section 13.2.A(3) (except as permitted pursuant to Sections 4.2, 5.1.E, 5.4, 6.2 and 14.1(B)(3)), (v) amend Section 8.6 or any defined terms set forth in Article I that relate to the Redemption Right (except as permitted in Section 8.6.E), or (vi) amend this Section 14.1.D.

        In addition, any amendment to Section 7.11.C of this Agreement shall require the following consent:

        (i)    In the event that the amendment to Section 7.11.C affects the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Property or the rights of holders of 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx, such amendment shall require the Consent of Partners (other than the General Partner or the General Partner Entity or any Subsidiary of either the General Partner or the General Partner Entity) who hold seventy-five percent (75%) of the 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx.

        X.    Amendment and Restatement of Exhibit A Not An Amendment.    Notwithstanding anything in this Article XIV or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, any amendment and restatement of Exhibit A hereto by the General Partner to reflect events or changes otherwise authorized or permitted by this Agreement, whether pursuant to Section 7.1.A(20) hereof or otherwise, shall not be deemed an amendment of this Agreement and may be done at any time and from time to time, as necessary by the General Partner without the Consent of the Limited Partners.

        Section 14.02.    Meetings of the Partners

        A.    General.    Meetings of the Partners may be called by the General Partner and shall be called upon the receipt by the General Partner of a written request by Limited Partners holding twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Partnership Interests.

        B.    Actions Without a Meeting.    Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Partners may be taken without a meeting if a written consent setting forth the action so taken is signed by a majority of the Percentage Interests of the Partners (or such other percentage as is expressly required by this Agreement). Such consent may be in one instrument or in several instruments, and shall have the same force and effect as a vote of a majority of the Percentage Interests of the Partners

55

(or such other percentage as is expressly required by this Agreement). Such consent shall be filed with the General Partner. An action so taken shall be deemed to have been taken at a meeting held on the effective date so certified.

        (i)    an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) 4.20% of the General Partner Entity's total gross income (but not including the amount of any General Partner Payments) for the fiscal year which is described in subsections (A) though (H) of Section 856(c)(2) of the Code over (b) the amount of gross income (within the meaning of Section 856(c)(2) of the Code) derived by the General Partner Entity from sources other than those described in subsections (A) through (H) of Section 856(c)(2) of the Code (but not including the amount of any General Partner Payments); or

        (i)    an amount equal to the excess, if any of (a) 25% of the General Partner Entity's total gross income (but not including the amount of any General Partner Payments) for the fiscal year which is described in subsections (A) through (I) of Section 856(c)(3) of the Code over (b) the amount of gross income (within the meaning of Section 856(c)(3) of the Code) derived by the General Partner Entity from sources other than those described in subsections (A) through (I) of Section 856(c)(3) of the Code (but not including the amount of any General Partner Payments);

58

provided, however, that General Partner Payments in excess of the amounts set forth in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above may be made if the General Partner Entity, as a condition precedent, obtains an opinion of tax counsel that the receipt of such excess amounts would not adversely affect the General Partner Entity's ability to qualify as a REIT. To the extent General Partner Payments may not be made in a year due to the foregoing limitations, such General Partner Payments shall carry over and be treated as arising in the following year, provided, however, that such amounts shall not carry over for more than five years, and if not paid within such five year period, shall expire; provided, further, that (i) as General Partner Payments are made, such payments shall be applied first to carryover amounts outstanding, if any, and (ii) with respect to carryover amounts for more than one Partnership Year, such payments shall be applied to the earliest Partnership Year first.

        A. The Partnership shall maintain for each Partner a separate Capital Account in accordance with the rules of Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv). Such Capital Account shall be increased by (i) the amount of all Capital Contributions and any other deemed contributions made by such Partner to the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) all items of Partnership income and gain (including income and gain exempt from tax) computed in accordance with Section 1.B hereof and allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Agreement and Exhibit C hereof, and decreased by (x) the amount of cash or Agreed Value of all actual and deemed distributions of cash or property made to such Partner pursuant to this Agreement and (y) all items of Partnership deduction and loss computed in accordance with Section 1.B hereof and allocated to such Partner pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Agreement and Exhibit C hereof.

        B. For purposes of computing the amount of any item of income, gain, deduction or loss to be reflected in the Partners' Capital Accounts, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, the determination, recognition and classification of any such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for federal income tax purposes determined in accordance with Section 703(a) of the Code (for this purpose all items of income, gain, loss or deduction required to be stated separately pursuant to Section 703(a)(1) of the Code shall be included in taxable income or loss), with the following adjustments:

        (1) Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(m), the computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be made without regard to any election under Section 754 of the Code which may be made by the Partnership, provided that the amounts of any adjustments to the adjusted bases of the assets of the Partnership made pursuant to Section 734 of the Code as a result of the distribution of property by the Partnership to a Partner (to the extent that such adjustments have not previously been reflected in the Partners' Capital Accounts) shall be reflected in the Capital Accounts of the Partners in the manner and subject to the limitations prescribed in Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv) (m)(4).

        (2) The computation of all items of income, gain, and deduction shall be made without regard to the fact that items described in Sections 705(a)(1)(B) or 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code are not includable in gross income or are neither currently deductible nor capitalized for federal income tax purposes.

        (3) Any income, gain or loss attributable to the taxable disposition of any Partnership property shall be determined as if the adjusted basis of such property as of such date of disposition were equal in amount to the Partnership's Carrying Value with respect to such property as of such date.

        (4) In lieu of the depreciation, amortization, and other cost recovery deductions taken into account in computing such taxable income or loss, there shall be taken into account Depreciation for such fiscal year.

        (5) In the event the Carrying Value of any Partnership Asset is adjusted pursuant to Section 1.D hereof, the amount of any such adjustment shall be taken into account as gain or loss from the disposition of such asset.

        (6) Any items specially allocated under Section 2 of Exhibit C hereof shall not be taken into account.

        C. Generally, a transferee (including any Assignee) of a Partnership Unit shall succeed to a pro rata portion of the Capital Account of the transferor, including where the transfer causes a termination of the Partnership under Section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code, in which case the Capital Account of the

65

transferee and the Capital Accounts of the other holders of Partnership Units in the terminated Partnership shall carry over to the new Partnership that is formed, for federal income tax purposes, as a result of the termination. In such event, the Carrying Values of the Partnership properties in the reconstituted Partnership shall remain the same as they were in the terminated Partnership and the Capital Accounts of such reconstituted Partnership shall be maintained in accordance with the principles of this Exhibit B.

        D. (1) Consistent with the provisions of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), and as provided in Section 1.D(2), the Carrying Values of all Partnership assets shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such Partnership property, as of the times of the adjustments provided in Section 1.D(2) hereof, as if such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized on an actual sale of each such property and allocated pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Agreement.

        (2) Such adjustments shall be made as of the following times: (a) immediately prior to the acquisition of an additional interest in the Partnership by any new or existing Partner in exchange for more than a de minimis Capital Contribution; (b) immediately prior to the distribution by the Partnership to a Partner of more than a de minimis amount of property as consideration for an interest in the Partnership; and (c) immediately prior to the liquidation of the Partnership within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(g) (except for a liquidation resulting from the termination of the Partnership under Section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code), provided however that adjustments pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall be made only if the General Partner determines that such adjustments are necessary or appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Partners in the Partnership.

        (3) In accordance with Regulations Section 1.704- l(b)(2)(iv)(e), the Carrying Value of Partnership assets distributed in kind (other than in connection with the termination of the Partnership under Section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code) shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such Partnership property, as of the time any such asset is distributed.

        (4) In determining Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss for purposes of this Exhibit B, the aggregate cash amount and fair market value of all Partnership assets (including cash or cash equivalents) shall be determined by the General Partner using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt, or in the case of a liquidating distribution pursuant to Article XIII of the Agreement, shall be determined and allocated by the Liquidator using such reasonable methods of valuation as it may adopt. The General Partner, or the Liquidator, as the case may be, shall allocate such aggregate fair market value among the assets of the Partnership in such manner as it determines in its sole and absolute discretion to arrive at a fair market value for individual properties.

        E. The provisions of the Agreement (including this Exhibit B and the other Exhibits to the Agreement) relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Regulations Section 1.704-l(b), and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations. In the event the General Partner shall determine that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto (including, without limitation, debits or credits relating to liabilities which are secured by contributed or distributed property or which are assumed by the Partnership, the General Partner, or the Limited Partners) are computed in order to comply with such Regulations, the General Partner may make such modification without regard to Article XIV of the Agreement, provided that it is not likely to have a material effect on the amounts distributable to any Person pursuant to Article XIII of the Agreement upon the dissolution of the Partnership. The General Partner also shall (i) make any adjustments that are necessary or appropriate to maintain equality between the Capital Accounts of the Partners and the amount of Partnership capital reflected

66

on the Partnership's balance sheet, as computed for book purposes, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(q), and (ii) make any appropriate modifications in the event unanticipated events might otherwise cause this Agreement not to comply with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b).

2.

No Interest

        No interest shall be paid by the Partnership on Capital Contributions or on balances in Partners' Capital Accounts.

3.

No Withdrawal

        No Partner shall be entitled to withdraw any part of its Capital Contribution or Capital Account or to receive any distribution from the Partnership, except as provided in Articles IV, V, VII and XIII of the Agreement.

EXHIBIT C
SPECIAL ALLOCATION RULES

1.

Special Allocation Rules.

        Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement or this Exhibit C, the following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

        A.    Minimum Gain Chargeback.    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.1 of the Agreement or any other provisions of this Exhibit C, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership Year, each Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Partner's share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain, as determined under Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(6). This Section 1.A is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and, for purposes of this Section 1.A only, each Partner's Adjusted Capital Account Deficit shall be determined prior to any other allocations pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Agreement with respect to such Partnership Year and without regard to any decrease in Partner Minimum Gain during such Partnership Year.

        B.    Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback.    Notwithstanding any other provision of Section 6.1 of this Agreement or any other provisions of this Exhibit C (except Section 1.A hereof), if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Partnership Year, each Partner who has a share of the Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) (5), shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Partner's share of the net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) (5). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) (4). This Section 1.B is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in such Section of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. Solely for purposes of this Section 1.B, each Partner's Adjusted Capital Account Deficit shall be determined prior to any other allocations pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Agreement or this Exhibit with respect to such Partnership Year, other than allocations pursuant to Section 1.A hereof.

        C.    Qualified Income Offset.    In the event any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Regulations Sections 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), and after giving effect to the allocations required under Sections 1.A and 1.B hereof with respect to such Partnership Year, such Partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, items of Partnership income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Partnership income, including gross income and gain for the Partnership Year) shall be specially allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, its Adjusted Capital Account Deficit created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible. This Section 1.C is intended to constitute a "qualified income offset" under Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

        X.    Xxxxx Income Allocation.    In the event that any Partner has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Partnership Year (after taking into account allocations to be made under the preceding paragraphs hereof with respect to such Partnership Year), each such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Partnership income, including gross income and gain for the Partnership Year) in an amount and

68

manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, its Adjusted Capital Account Deficit.

        E.    Nonrecourse Deductions.    Nonrecourse Deductions for any Partnership Year shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. If the General Partner determines in its good faith discretion that the Partnership's Nonrecourse Deductions must be allocated in a different ratio to satisfy the safe harbor requirements of the Regulations promulgated under Section 704(b) of the Code, the General Partner is authorized, upon notice to the Limited Partners, to revise the prescribed ratio for such Partnership Year to the numerically closest ratio which would satisfy such requirements.

        F.    Partner Nonrecourse Deductions.    Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any Partnership Year shall be specially allocated to the Partner who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(b)(4) and 1.704-2(i).

        G.    Code Section 754 Adjustments.    To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Section 734(b) or 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such item of gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Partners in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Regulations.

2.

Allocations for Tax Purposes

        A. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2, for federal income tax purposes, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as its correlative item of "book" income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Agreement and Section 1 of this Exhibit C.

        B. In an attempt to eliminate Book-Tax Disparities attributable to a Contributed Property or Adjusted Property, items of income, gain, loss, and deduction shall be allocated for federal income tax purposes among the Partners as follows:

        (b) (1)In the case of a Contributed Property, such items attributable thereto shall be allocated among the Partners consistent with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code to take into account the variation between the 704(c) Value of such property and its adjusted basis at the time of contribution (taking into account Section 2.C of this Exhibit C); and

        (c) any item of Residual Gain or Residual Loss attributable to a Contributed Property shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner as its correlative item of "book" gain or loss is allocated pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Agreement and Section 1 of this Exhibit C.

        (d) (2)In the case of an Adjusted Property, such items shall

        (i) first, be allocated among the Partners in a manner consistent with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code to take into account the Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such property and the allocations thereof pursuant to Exhibit B;

        (ii) second, in the event such property was originally a Contributed Property, be allocated among the Partners in a manner consistent with Section 2.B(1) of this Exhibit C; and

        (d) any item of Residual Gain or Residual Loss attributable to an Adjusted Property shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner its correlative item of "book" gain or loss is allocated pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Agreement and Section 1 of this Exhibit C.

        C. To the extent Regulations promulgated pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code permit a Partnership to utilize alternative methods to eliminate the disparities between the Carrying Value of property and its adjusted basis, the General Partner shall, subject to the following, have the authority to elect the method to be used by the Partnership and such election shall be binding on all Partners. With respect to the Contributed Properties transferred to the Partnership in connection with the Consolidation, the Partnership shall elect to use the "traditional method" set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b).
