Additional Funds may be raised by the Partnership, at the election of the General Partner, in any manner provided in, and in accordance with, the terms of this Section 4.3. No Person shall have any preemptive, preferential or similar right or rights to subscribe for or acquire any Partnership Interest.

(b) GENERAL PARTNER LOANS. The General Partner or an Affiliate may enter into a Funding Debt, including, without limitation, a Funding Debt that is convertible into REIT shares, and lend the Additional Funds to the Partnership (a “General Partner Loan”). If the General Partner enters into such a Funding Debt, the General Partner Loan will consist of the net proceeds from such Funding Debt and will be on comparable terms and conditions, including principal amount, interest rate, repayment schedule and costs and expenses, as shall be applicable with respect to or incurred in connection with such Funding Debt.

(c) ADDITIONAL CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS. The General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, may raise all or any portion of the Additional Funds by accepting additional Capital Contributions, including, without limitation, the issuance of Partnership Units for interests in real property. In connection with any such additional Capital Contributions (of cash or property), the General Partner is hereby authorized to cause the Partnership from time to time to issue to Partners (including the General Partner or the Company) or other persons (including, without limitation, in connection with the contribution of property to the Partnership) additional Partnership Units or other Partnership Interests (as set forth in Section 4.2 above) in consideration therefor.

(d) ISSUANCE OF REIT SHARES OR OTHER SECURITIES BY THE COMPANY.

The Company’s Capital Account shall be increased by the amount of cash so contributed.

(e) 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 to such Partnership Units shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of cash and the Agreed Value of the Property contributed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the additional Capital Contributions are made (an “Adjustment Date”) and the denominator of which is equal to the sum of (i) the Deemed Value of the Partnership Interests of such class (computed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Adjustment Date) and (ii) the aggregate amount of additional Capital Contributions contributed to the Partnership on such Adjustment Date in respect of such class of Partnership Interests. The Percentage Interest of each other Partner holding Partnership Interests

of such class not making a full pro rata Capital Contribution shall be adjusted to equal a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the sum of (i) the Deemed Partnership Interest Value of such Limited Partner of such class (computed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Adjustment Date) and (ii) the amount of additional Capital Contributions made by such Partner to the Partnership in respect of such class of Partnership Interests 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 such class (computed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Adjustment Date), and (ii) the aggregate amount of additional Capital Contributions contributed to the Partnership on such Adjustment Date in respect of such class.

The Company’s Capital Account shall be increased by the amount of cash so contributed.

Section 4.5

LOANS BY THIRD PARTIES

Subject to Sections 4.2 and 4.3, the Partnership may incur Debt, or enter into other similar credit, guarantee, financing or refinancing arrangements for any purpose (including, without limitation, in connection with any further acquisition of Properties) with any Person that is not the General Partner upon such terms as the General Partner determines appropriate.

Section 4.6

Section 4.7

OTHER CONTRIBUTION PROVISIONS

Section 6.3

ADDITIONAL ALLOCATION PROVISIONS

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 6:

(a) SPECIAL ALLOCATIONS

(i) LTIP UNITS SPECIAL ALLOCATIONS. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 6.3(b) hereof, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2(a) above, any Liquidating Gains shall first be allocated to holders of LTIP Units until the Economic Capital Account Balances of such holders, to the extent attributable to their ownership of LTIP Units, are equal to (i) the Common Unit Economic Balance, multiplied by (ii) the number of their LTIP Units. Any such allocations shall be made among the holders of LTIP Units in proportion to the amounts required to be allocated to each under this Section 6.3(a)(i). The parties agree that the intent of this Section 6.3(a)(i) is to make the Capital Account balances of the holders of LTIP Units with respect to their LTIP Units economically equivalent to the Capital Account balance of the General Partner with respect to its Partnership Common Units. In the event that Liquidating Gains are allocated under this Section 6.3(a)(i), Net Income allocable under Section 6.2(a)(i) and any Net Losses allocable under Section 6.2(a)(i)(ii) shall be recomputed without regard to the Liquidating Gains so allocated.

(ii) FORFEITURE ALLOCATIONS. Upon a forfeiture of any Unvested LTIP Units by any Partner, gross items of income, gain, loss or deduction shall be allocated to such Partner if and to the extent required by final Regulations promulgated after the Effective Date to ensure that allocations made with respect to all unvested Partnership Interests are recognized under Code Section 704(b).

(iii) LTIP UNITS. For purposes of the allocations set forth in Section 6.3, including Section 6.3(b), each issued and outstanding LTIP Unit will be treated as one outstanding Partnership Common Unit.

(iv) EFFECTIVENESS. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 6.3(b) hereof, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2(a) above or the other provisions of this Section 6.3(a), for any Partner entitled to Consent to the amendments made to this Agreement in connection with the amendment and restatement of this Agreement, dated as of February 27, 2013, who did not so Consent, any allocations of Net Income and Net Loss to such Partner shall, to the extent possible, be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Partner if such amendments to this Agreement had not been made.

(b) REGULATORY ALLOCATIONS.

(i) MINIMUM GAIN CHARGEBACK. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2 of the Agreement, or any other provision of this Article 6, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any fiscal 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 allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3(a)(i) is intended to qualify as a “minimum gain chargeback” within the meaning of Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulation and this Section 6.3(a)(i).

(ii) PARTNER MINIMUM GAIN CHARGEBACK. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2 of the Agreement, or any other provision of this Article 6 (except Section 6.3(a)(i)), if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any fiscal 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 1.704-20)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each General Partner and Limited Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3(a)(ii) is intended to qualify as a “chargeback of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” within the meaning of Regulation Section 1.704-2(i) which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulation and this Section 6.3(a)(ii).

(iii) NONRECOURSE DEDUCTIONS AND PARTNER NONRECOURSE DEDUCTIONS. Any Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be specially allocated to the Partners in accordance with their Percentage Interests. Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be specially allocated to the Partner(s) 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(1),

(iv) QUALIFIED INCOME OFFSET. If any Partner unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be allocated, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), to the Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Partner as quickly as possible provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3(a)(iv) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Partner would have an Adjusted Capital. Account Deficit after all other allocations provided in this Article 6 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3(a)(iv) were not in the Agreement. It is intended that this Section 6.3(a)(iv) qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Regulations 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulations and this Section 6.3(a)(iv).

(v) GROSS INCOME ALLOCATION. In the event any Partner has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any fiscal year which is in excess of the sum of (1) the amount (if any) such Partner is obligated to restore to the Partnership, and (2) the amount such Partner is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c) or the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, PROVIDED THAT an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3(a)(v) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Partner would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided in this Article 6 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3(a)(v) and Section 6.3(a)(iv) were not in the Agreement.

(vi) LIMITATION ON ALLOCATION OF NET LOSS. To the extent any allocation of Net Loss would cause or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as to any Partner, such allocation of Net Loss shall be reallocated among the other Partners in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests, subject to the limitations of this Section 6.3(a)(vi).

(vii) SECTION 754 ADJUSTMENT. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Partner in complete liquidation of his interest in the Partnership, 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 gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Partners in accordance with their interests in the Partnership in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Partners to whom such distribution was made in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

(viii) CURATIVE ALLOCATION. The allocations set forth in Sections 6.3(a)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), and (vii) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain regulatory requirements, including the requirements of Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2, the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and

deduction among the Partners so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Partner shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Partner if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

Section 6.4

TAX ALLOCATIONS

(a) IN GENERAL. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.4, for income tax purposes each item of income, gain, loss and deduction (collectively, “Tax Items”) 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 Sections 6.2 and 6.3.

(b) ALLOCATIONS RESPECTING SECTION 704(C) REVALUATIONS. Notwithstanding Section 6.4(a), Tax Items with respect to Partnership property that is contributed to the Partnership by a Partner shall be shared among the Partners for income tax purposes pursuant to Regulations promulgated under Section 704(c) of the Code, so as to take into account the variation, if any, between the basis of the property to the Partnership and its initial Gross Asset Value. With respect to Partnership property that is initially contributed to the Partnership upon its formation pursuant to Section 4.1, such variation between basis and initial Gross Asset Value shall be taken into account under the “traditional without curative allocations method” of Regulations Section 1.704-3. With respect to properties subsequently contributed to the Partnership, the Partnership shall account for such variation under any method approved under Section 704(c) of the Code and the applicable regulations as chosen by the General Partner. In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (b) of the definition of Gross Asset Value (provided in Article 1 of this Agreement), subsequent allocations of Tax Items with respect to such asset shall take account of the variation, if any, between the adjusted basis of such asset and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Section 704(c) of the Code and the applicable regulations consistent with the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) using any method approved under 704(c) of the Code and the applicable regulations as chosen by the General Partner.

The General Partner shall not, however, be reimbursed for expenses it incurs relating to the organization of the Partnership or any public offerings of REIT Shares, other shares of capital stock or Funding Debt by the General Partner, but shall be reimbursed for expenses it incurs with respect to any other issuance of additional Partnership Interests pursuant to the provisions hereof. Such reimbursements shall be in addition to any reimbursement to the General Partner as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof.

(c) If and to the extent any reimbursements to the General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.4 constitute gross income of the General Partner (as opposed to the repayment of

advances made by the General Partner 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.

Section 7.5

CONTRACTS WITH AFFILIATES

(a) The Partnership may lend or contribute to Persons in which it has an equity investment, and such Persons may borrow funds from the Partnership, on terms and conditions established in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner. The foregoing authority shall not create any right or benefit or favor of any Person.

(b) Except as provided in Section 7.5(a), the Partnership may transfer assets to joint ventures, other partnerships, corporations, limited liability companies or other business entities in which it is or thereby becomes a participant upon such terms and subject to such conditions consistent with this Agreement and applicable law.

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. The General Partner also is expressly authorized to cause the Partnership to issue to it Partnership Units corresponding to REIT Shares issued by the Company pursuant to any Stock Plan or any similar or successor plan and to repurchase such Partnership Units from the Company to the extent necessary to permit the General Partner to repurchase such REIT Shares in accordance with such plan.

Section 7.6

INDEMNIFICATION

(a) The Partnership shall indemnify an Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, that relate to the operations of the Partnership as set forth in this Agreement in which any Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, unless it is established 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. Except as otherwise specifically provided in writing to the

contrary, without limitation, the foregoing indemnity shall extend to any liability of any Indemnitee, pursuant to a loan guaranty 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 7.6 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 7.6(a). The termination of any proceeding by conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or any 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 7.6(a) with respect to subject matter of such proceeding. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.6 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership.

(b) Reasonable expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in connection with any proceeding which are otherwise indemnifiable under this Section 7.6 may be paid or reimbursed by the Partnership in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding upon receipt by the Partnership of (1) 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 7.6 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) The indemnification provided by this Section 7.6 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.

(d) 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) For purposes of this Section 7.6, 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; excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall constitute fines within the meaning of Section 7.6; and 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) In no event may an Indemnitee subject the Limited Partners to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement.

(g) An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.6 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) The provisions of this Section 7.6 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 7.6 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the Partnership’s liability to any Indemnitee under this Section 7.6 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.

(i) If and to the extent any reimbursements to the General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.6 constitute gross income of the General Partner (as opposed to the repayment of advances made by the General Partner 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.

(j) Any indemnification hereunder is subject to, and limited by, the provisions of Section 17-108 of the Act.

(k) In the event the Partnership is made a party to any litigation or otherwise incurs any loss or expenses as a result of or in connection with any Partner’s personal obligations or liabilities unrelated to Partnership business, such Partner shall indemnify and reimburse the Partnership for all such loss and expense incurred, including legal fees, and the Partnership Interest of such Partner may be charged therefor. The liability of a Partner under this Section 7.6(k) shall not be limited to such Partner’s Partnership Interest, but shall be enforceable against such Partner personally.

Section 7.7

LIABILITY OF THE GENERAL PARTNER

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, neither the General Partner nor any director, officer, employee or agent of the Partnership or the General Partner (each, an “Agent”) shall be liable or accountable in damages or otherwise 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 any act or omission if such Person acted in good faith.

(b) The Limited Partners expressly acknowledge that the General Partner is acting for the benefit of the Partnership, the Limited Partners and the Company’s stockholders collectively, that the General Partner is under no obligation to give priority to the separate interests of the Limited Partners or the Company’s stockholders (including, without limitation, the tax consequences to Limited Partners or Assignees or to stockholders) in deciding whether to cause the Partnership to take (or decline to take) any actions and that the General Partner shall

not be liable to the Partnership or to any Limited Partner for monetary damages 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) Subject to its obligations and duties as General Partner set forth in Section 7.1(a) hereof, 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 Agents. The General Partner shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such Agent appointed by it in good faith.

(d) 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 limitations on the General Partner’s or any Agent’s liability to the Partnership and the Limited Partners under this Section 7.7 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.

Section 7.8

OTHER MATTERS CONCERNING THE GENERAL PARTNER

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

(b) The General Partner and any Agent may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisers selected by it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the opinion of such Persons as to matters which such General Partner or Agent 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) 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) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any non-mandatory provision of 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 Company to continue to qualify as a REIT or (ii) to avoid the Company incurring any taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code, is expressly authorized under this Agreement and is deemed approved by all of the Limited Partners.

Section 7.9

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 deemed held by the General Partner or such nominee or Affiliate 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 7.10

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 to encumber, sell or otherwise use in any manner any and all assets of the Partnership and to enter into any contracts on behalf of the Partnership, and such Person shall be entitled to deal with the General Partner as if it were the Partnership’s sole party in interest, both legally and beneficially. Each Limited Partner hereby waives any and all defenses or other remedies 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 8.6

REDEMPTION RIGHTS

(a) Each Limited Partner shall have the right (subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein), but not the obligation, to require the Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the Partnership Units held by such Limited Partner (such Partnership Units being hereafter referred to as “Tendered Units”) in exchange for the Cash Amount (a “Redemption”); provided that the terms of such Partnership Units do not provide that such Partnership Units are not entitled to a right of Redemption. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in a separate agreement entered into between the Partnership and the holders of such Partnership Units, all Partnership Units shall be entitled to a right of Redemption hereunder. Any Redemption shall be exercised pursuant to a Notice of Redemption delivered to the General Partner and the Company, by the Limited Partner who is exercising the right (the “Tendering Partner”). The Cash Amount shall be delivered as a certified check payable to the Tendering Partner within 10 days of the Specified Redemption Date in accordance with the instructions set forth in the Notice of Redemption.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.6(a) above, if a Limited Partner has delivered to the General Partner a Notice of Redemption, then the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion (subject to the limitations on ownership and transfer of REIT Shares set forth in the Charter), elect to acquire some or all of the Tendered Units from the Tendering Partner in exchange for the REIT Shares Amount (as of the Specified Redemption Date) and, if the Company so elects, the Tendering Partner shall sell the Tendered Units to the Company in exchange for the REIT Shares Amount. In such event, the Tendering Partner shall have no right

to cause the Partnership to redeem such Tendered Units. The Company shall promptly give the General Partner and the Tendering Partner written notice of its election, and the Tendering Partner may elect by written notice to the Partnership to withdraw its redemption request at any time prior to the acceptance of the Cash Amount or REIT Shares Amount by such Tendering Partner.

(c) The REIT Shares Amount, if applicable, shall be delivered as duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable REIT Shares and, if applicable, free of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or restriction, other than those provided in the Charter, the Bylaws of the Company, the Securities Act, relevant state securities or blue sky laws and any applicable registration rights agreement with respect to such REIT Shares entered into by the Tendering Partner. The REIT Shares Amount shall be registered in the name and otherwise delivered as set forth in the Notice of Redemption. Notwithstanding any delay in such delivery (but subject to Section 8.6(e)), the Tendering Partner shall be deemed the owner of such REIT Shares for all purposes, including without limitation, rights to vote or consent, and receive dividends, as of the Specified Redemption Date. Each Limited Partner further agrees that it shall enter into such documentation with respect to a Redemption for cash or an exchange for REIT Shares as the Partnership, the Company, or the General Partner shall reasonably request.

(d) Each Limited Partner covenants and agrees with the General Partner and the Company, as the case may be, that all Tendered Units shall be delivered to the General Partner or the Company free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances whatsoever and should any such liens, claims and/or encumbrances exist or arise with respect to such Tendered Units, the General Partner and the Company shall be under no obligation to acquire the same. 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 Tendered Units to the General Partner or the Company (or the designee), such Limited Partner shall assume and pay such transfer tax.

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.6(a), 8.6(b), 8.6(c) or any other provision of this Agreement, a Limited Partner (i) shall not be entitled to effect a Redemption for cash or an exchange for REIT Shares to the extent the ownership or right to acquire REIT Shares pursuant to such exchange by such Partner on the Specified Redemption Date would cause such Partner or another Person, or, based on the advice of counsel selected by the General Partner, may cause such Partner or any other Person, to violate the restrictions on ownership and transfer of REIT Shares set forth in the Charter and (ii) shall have no rights under this Agreement to acquire REIT Shares which would otherwise be prohibited under the Charter. To the extent any attempted Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares would be in violation of this Section 8.6(e), it shall be null and void AB INITIO and such Limited Partner shall not acquire any rights or economic interest in the cash otherwise payable upon such Redemption or the REIT Shares otherwise issuable upon such exchange.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but subject to Section 8.6(e)), with respect to any Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares pursuant to this Section 8.6:

(i) All Partnership Units acquired by the General Partner pursuant thereto shall automatically, and without further action required, be converted into and deemed to be General Partner Interests comprised of the same number and class of Partnership Units.

(ii) All Partnership Units acquired by the Company shall maintain their status as Limited Partnership Interests of the same number and class as the Partnership Units so acquired.

(iii) Without the consent of the General Partner, each Limited Partner may not effect a Redemption for less than 500 Partnership Units or, if the Limited Partner holds less than 500 Partnership Units, all of the Partnership Units held by such Limited Partner.

(iv) Without the consent of the General Partner, each Limited Partner may not effect a Redemption during the period after the Partnership Record Date with respect to a distribution and before the record date established by the Company for a distribution to its stockholders of some or all of its portion of such distribution.

(v) The consummation of any Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares shall be subject to the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period, if any, under the Hart-Scott-Redino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended.

(vi) Each Tendering Partner shall continue to own all Partnership Units subject to any Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares, and be treated as a Limited Partner with respect to such Partnership Units for all purposes of this Agreement, until such Partnership Units are transferred to the General Partner or the Company, as the case may be, and paid for or exchanged on the Specified Redemption Date. Until a Specified Redemption Date, the Tendering Partner shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to such Tendering Partner’s Partnership Units.

(g) In the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Interests to any Additional Limited Partner pursuant to Section 4.2 or 4.3(c) hereof, the General Partner shall make such revisions to this Section 8.6 as it determines are necessary to reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Interests.

(h) If, at any time, the General Partner acquires material assets (other than on behalf of the Partnership) the definition of “REIT Shares Amount” shall be adjusted, as reasonably agreed to by the General Partner and a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners, to reflect the relative Fair Market Value of a share of capital stock of the General Partner relative to the Deemed Partnership Interest Value of the related Partnership Unit.

(i) The Partnership shall notify each Limited Partner in writing of any adjustment made in the calculation of the REIT Shares Amount within 10 Business Days of the date such change becomes effective.

SECTION 8.7

PARTNERSHIP RIGHT TO CALL PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, on and after the date on which the aggregate Percentage Interests of the Limited Partners (other than the Company) are less than one percent (1%), the Partnership shall have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time and at any time to redeem any and all outstanding Partnership Common Units (other than Partnership Common Units held by the General Partner or the Company) by treating any Limited Partner as a Tendering Partner who has delivered a Notice of Redemption pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof for the amount of Partnership Common Units to be specified by the General Partner by notice to such Limited Partner that the Partnership has elected to exercise its rights under this Section 8.7. Such notice given by the General Partner to a Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be treated as if it were a Notice of Redemption delivered to the General Partner by such Limited Partner. For purposes of this Section 8.7, the provisions of Sections 8.6(f)(iii) and 8.6(iv) hereof shall not apply, but the remainder of Section 8.6 hereof shall apply, mutatis mutandis.

Section 10.3

TAX MATTERS PARTNER

(a) The General Partner shall be the “tax matters partner” of the Partnership for federal income tax purposes. Pursuant to Section 6223(c) of the Code, upon receipt of notice from the IRS of the beginning of an administrative proceeding with respect to the Partnership, the tax matters partner shall furnish the IRS with the name, address and profit interest of each of the Limited Partners and Assignees; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such information is provided to the Partnership by the Limited Partners and Assignees.

(b) The tax matters partner is authorized, but not required:

(i) 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 of the Code) or a member of a “notice group” (as defined in Section 6223(b)(2) of the Code);

(ii) 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 United States Claims Court, or the filing of a complaint for refund with the District Court of the United States for the district in which the Partnership’s principal place of business is located;

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

(iv) 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;

(v) 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

(vi) to take any other action on behalf of the Partners of the Partnership in connection with any tax audit or judicial review proceeding to the extent permitted by applicable law or regulations.

The taking of any action and the incurring of any expense by the tax matters partner in connection with any such proceeding, except to the extent required by law, is a matter in the sole and absolute discretion of the tax matters partner and the provisions relating to indemnification of the General Partner set forth in Section 7.7 of this Agreement shall be fully applicable to the tax matters partner in its capacity as such.

(c) 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) shall be borne by the Partnership. Nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the Partnership from engaging an accounting firm to assist the tax matters partner in discharging its duties hereunder, so long as the compensation paid by the Partnership for such services is reasonable.

Section 10.4

ORGANIZATIONAL EXPENSES

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

Section 10.5

WITHHOLDING

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 loan by the Partnership to such Limited Partner, which loan shall be repaid by such Limited Partner within 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 and the holding of a security interest in such Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest). 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 two percentage points (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate) from the date such amount is due (i.e., 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 11

TRANSFERS AND WITHDRAWALS

Section 11.1

TRANSFER

(a) The term “transfer,” when used in this Article 11 with respect to a Partnership Interest, shall be deemed to refer to a transaction by which the General Partner purports to assign all or any portion of its General Partner Interest to another person or by which a Limited Partner purports to assign all or any portion of its Limited Partnership Interest to another Person, and includes a sale, assignment, gift (outright or in trust), pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation, mortgage, exchange or any other disposition by law or otherwise. The term “transfer” when used in this Article 11 does not include any Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares pursuant to Section 8.6. 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) No Partnership Interest shall be transferred, in whole or in part, except in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 11. Any transfer or purported transfer of a Partnership Interest not made in accordance with this Article 11 shall be null and void.

Section 11.2

TRANSFER OF GENERAL PARTNER’S PARTNERSHIP INTEREST

(a) The General Partner shall not withdraw from the Partnership and shall not transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Partnership (whether by sale, statutory merger or consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) without the Consent of the Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners, which may be given or withheld by each Limited Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, and only, in the case of a purported transfer of all of the General Partner’s General Partner Interest, upon the appointment and admission of a successor General Partner pursuant to Section 12.1 and 13.1(b). Upon any transfer of all of the General Partner’s General Partner Interest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.2, the transferee shall become a Substitute General Partner for all purposes herein, and shall be vested with the powers and rights of the transferor General Partner, and shall be liable for all obligations and responsible for all duties of the General Partner, once such transferee has executed such instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such admission and to confirm the agreement of such transferee to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement with respect to the Partnership Interest so acquired. It is a condition to any transfer otherwise permitted hereunder that the transferee assumes, by operation of law or express agreement, all of the obligations of the transferor General Partner under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Partnership Interest, and no such transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor General Partner are assumed by a successor corporation by operation of law) shall relieve the transferor General Partner of its obligations under this Agreement without the Consent of the Super Majority Limited Partners, in their reasonable discretion. Subject to Section 7.3(c), in the event the General Partner withdraws from the Partnership, in violation of this Agreement or otherwise, or otherwise dissolves or terminates, or upon the Incapacity of the General Partner, all of the remaining Partners may elect to continue the Partnership business by selecting a Substitute General Partner in accordance with the Act.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.2(c), the General Partner shall not engage in any 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 its outstanding equity interests (each, a “Termination Transaction”), unless the Termination Transaction has been approved by a Consent of the Partners 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 REIT Shares Amount and the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property paid to a holder of one REIT Share in consideration of one REIT Share pursuant to the terms of the Termination Transaction; 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 thirty-three and one-third percent (33.3 %) of the outstanding REIT 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 its right to Redemption (as set forth in Section 8.6) and received REIT 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.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 11.2(b), the General Partner may merge, or otherwise combine its assets, with another entity if: (i) immediately after such merger or other combination, substantially all of the assets directly or indirectly owned by the surviving entity, other than Partnership Units held by such General Partner, are owned directly or indirectly by the

Partnership or another limited partnership or limited liability company which is the survivor of a merger, consolidation or combination of assets with the Partnership (in each case, the “Surviving Partnership”); (ii) the Limited Partners own a percentage interest of the Surviving Partnership based on the relative fair market value of the net assets of the Partnership (as determined pursuant to Section 11.2(e) and the other net assets of the Surviving Partnership (as determined pursuant to Section 11.2(e)) immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction; (iii) the rights, preferences and privileges of the Limited Partners in the Surviving Partnership are at least as favorable as those in effect immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction and as those applicable to any other limited partners or non-managing members of the Surviving Partnership; and (iv) such rights of the Limited Partners include the right to exchange their interests in the Surviving Partnership for at least one of: (a) the consideration available to such Limited Partners pursuant to Section 11.2(b) or (b) if the ultimate controlling person of the Surviving Partnership has publicly traded common equity securities, such common equity securities, with an exchange ratio based on the relative fair market value of such securities (as determined pursuant to Section 11.2(e)) and the REIT Shares.

(d) In connection with any transaction permitted by Section 11.2(b) or Section 11.2(c) hereof, the General Partner shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to structure such Termination Transaction to avoid causing the Limited Partners to recognize gain for federal income tax purposes by virtue of the occurrence of or their participation in such Termination Transaction. The sole remedy for a breach by the General Partner of this Section 11.2(d) shall be a claim for damages.

(e) In connection with any transaction permitted by Section 11.2(b) or 11.2(c), the relative fair market values shall be reasonably determined by the General Partner as of the time of such transaction and, to the extent applicable, shall be no less favorable to the Limited Partners than the relative values reflected in the terms of such transaction.

Section 11.3

LIMITED PARTNERS’ RIGHTS TO TRANSFER

(a) Any Limited Partner may, at any time, without the consent of the General Partner, (i) transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to the General Partner, (ii) transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to an Affiliate of such Limited Partner, another original Limited Partner or to an Immediate Family member, subject to the provisions of Section 11.6, (iii) transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to a trust for the benefit of a charitable beneficiary or to a charitable foundation, subject to the provisions of Section 11.6, and (iv) subject to the provisions of Section 11.6, pledge (a “Pledge”) all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to a lending institution, which is not an Affiliate of such Limited Partner, as collateral or security for a bona fide loan or other extension of credit, and transfer such pledged Partnership Interest to such lending institution in connection with the exercise of remedies under such loan or extension or credit, and the transfer of such pledged Partnership Interest by the lender to any transferee. Each Limited Partner or Assignee (resulting from a transfer made pursuant to clauses (i)-(iv) of the proviso of the preceding sentence) shall have the right to transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest, subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions (in addition to the right of each such Limited Partner or Assignee to continue to make any such transfer permitted by clauses (i)-(iv) of such proviso without satisfying either of the following conditions):

(i) GENERAL PARTNER RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. The transferring Partner shall give written notice of the proposed transfer to the General Partner, which notice shall state (i) the identity of the proposed transferee, and (ii) the amount and type of consideration proposed to be received for the transferred Partnership Units. The General Partner shall have 10 days upon which to give the transferring Partner notice of its election to acquire the Partnership Units on the proposed terms. If it so elects, it shall purchase the Partnership Units on such terms within 10 days after giving notice of such election. If it does not so elect, the transferring Partner may transfer such Partnership Units to such third party, on economic terms no more favorable to the transferee than the proposed terms, subject to the other conditions of this Section 11.3, for a period of 90 days, after which such transfer shall again be subject to compliance herewith.

(ii) QUALIFIED TRANSFEREE. Any transfer of a Partnership Interest shall be made only to Qualified Transferees. It is a condition to any transfer otherwise permitted hereunder that the transferee assumes by operation of law or express agreement all of the obligations of the transferor Limited Partner under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Partnership Interest and no such transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor Partner are assumed by a successor corporation by operation of law) shall relieve the transferor Partner of its obligations under this Agreement without the approval of the General Partner, in its reasonable discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee of any transferred Partnership Interest shall be subject to any and all ownership limitations contained in the Charter and the representations in Section 3.4(d). Any transferee, whether or not admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, shall take subject to the obligations of the transferor hereunder. Unless admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, no transferee, whether by a voluntary transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, shall have rights hereunder, other than the rights of an Assignee as provided in Section 11.5.

(b) 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 his or its interest in the Partnership. The Incapacity of a Limited Partner, in and of itself, shall not dissolve or terminate the Partnership.

(c) The General Partner may prohibit any transfer otherwise permitted under Section 11.3 by a Limited Partner of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units if, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership, such transfer would require the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act by the Partnership or would otherwise violate any federal or state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Partnership Units.

(d) Except with the consent of the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, no transfer by a Limited Partner of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units (including any Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares pursuant to Section 8.6 or any conversion of LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units) may be made to any person if (i) it could result in the Partnership being treated as an association taxable as a corporation, (ii) result in a termination of the Partnership under Code Section 708; (iii) it could 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; (iv) it could result in the Partnership being unable to qualify for one or more 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”) or (v) based on the advice of counsel to the Partnership or the General Partner, it could adversely affect the ability of the Company to continue to qualify as a REIT or subject the Company to any additional taxes under Code Section 857 or Code Section 4981.

(e) No transfer of any Partnership Units may be made to a lender to the Partnership or 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 redeem or exchange for the REIT Shares Amount any Partnership Units 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) In addition to any other restrictions on transfer contained in this Agreement, in no event may any transfer of any Partnership Units by any Partner be made if such transfer would cause, or in the opinion of counsel selected by the General Partner, could cause (i) the Partnership to become, with respect to any employee benefit plan subject to Title T of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, 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); or (ii) any portion of the assets of the Partnership to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to Section 2510.3-101 of the regulations of the United States Department of Labor.

Section 11.4

SUBSTITUTED LIMITED PARTNERS

(a) No Limited Partner shall have the right to substitute a transferee as a Limited Partner in such Limited Partner’s place (including any transferee permitted by Section 11.3). The General Partner shall, however, have the right to consent to the admission of a transferee permitted under Section 11.3 of the interest of a Limited Partner as a Substituted Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 11.4, 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) A transferee who has been admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner in accordance with this Article 11 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 subject to the transferee executing and delivering to the Partnership an acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 2.4 and such other documents or instruments as may be required in the discretion of the General Partner to effect the admission, each in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner) and the acknowledgment by such

transferee that each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.4 hereof are true and correct with respect to such transferee as of the date of the transfer of the Partnership Interest to such transferee.

(c) Upon the admission of a Substituted Limited Partner, the General Partner shall amend Exhibit A to reflect the name, address, number of Partnership Units, and Percentage Interest of such Substituted Limited Partner and to eliminate or adjust, if necessary, the name, address and interest of the predecessor of such Substituted Limited Partner.

Section 11.5

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 as a Substituted Limited Partner, as described in Section 11.4, 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 and loss attributable to the Partnership Units assigned to such transferee, the rights to transfer the Partnership Units provided in this Article 11, and the right of Redemption provided in Section 8.6, 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 effect a Consent with respect to such Partnership Units on any matter presented to the Limited Partners for approval (such Consent remaining with the transferor Limited Partner). 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 11 to the same extent and in the same manner as any Limited Partner desiring to make an assignment of Partnership Units.

Section 11.6

GENERAL PROVISIONS

(a) No Limited Partner may withdraw from the Partnership other than as a result of (i) a permitted transfer of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units in accordance with this Article 11 and the transferee(s) of such Units being admitted to the Partnership as a Substituted Limited Partner or (ii) pursuant to a Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units under Section 8.6.

(b) Any Limited Partner who shall transfer all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units in a transfer permitted pursuant to this Article 11 where such transferee was admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner or pursuant to a Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units under Section 8.6 shall cease to be a Limited Partner.

(c) Transfers pursuant to this Article 11 may only be made on the first day of a fiscal quarter of the Partnership, unless the General Partner otherwise agrees.

(d) If any Partnership Interest is transferred or assigned during any quarterly segment of the Partnership’s fiscal year in compliance with the provisions of this Article 11 or transferred or redeemed pursuant to Section 8.6, on any day other than the first day of a Partnership Year, then Net Income, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items attributable to such Partnership Interest for such fiscal year shall be divided and allocated between the

transferor Partner and the transferee Partner by taking into account their varying interests during the fiscal year in accordance with Section 706(d) of the Code, using the pro-ration of items method. Except as otherwise required by Section 706(d) of the Code, solely for purposes of making such allocations, each of such items for the calendar quarter in which the transfer, assignment or redemption occurs shall be allocated to the Person who is a Partner as of midnight on the Partnership Record Date and none of such items for the calendar quarter in which a redemption occurs will be allocated to the redeeming Partner. All distributions of Available Cash 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, and all distributions of Available Cash thereafter, in the case of a transfer or assignment other than a redemption, shall be made to the transferee Partner.

(e) In addition to any other restrictions on transfer herein contained, including without limitation the provisions of this Article 11, in no event may any transfer or assignment of a Partnership Interest by any Partner (including by way of a Redemption) be made (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) except with the Consent of the General Partner, if such transfer or assignment could, based on the advice of legal counsel to the Partnership, cause a termination of the Partnership for federal or state income tax purposes (except as a result of the Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares of all Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners or pursuant to a Termination Transaction expressly permitted under Section 11.2); (v) if based on the advice of counsel to the Partnership such transfer would cause the Partnership to cease to be classified as a partnership for federal or state income tax purposes (except as a result of the Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares of all Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners); (vi) if such transfer requires the registration of such Partnership Interest pursuant to any applicable federal or state securities laws; (vii) except with the Consent of the General Partner, if such transfer could (A) be treated as 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, (B) cause the Partnership to become a “Publicly Traded Partnership,” as such term is defined in Sections 469(k)(2) or 7704(b) of the Code, or (C) could cause the Partnership to fail one or more of the Safe Harbors; (viii) if such transfer subjects the Partnership to be regulated 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; (ix) if the transferee or assignee of such Partnership Interest is unable to make the representations set forth in Section 3.4(d) or such transfer could otherwise adversely affect the ability of the Company to remain qualified as a REIT; or (x) if based on the advice of legal counsel for the Partnership such transfer could adversely affect the ability of the Company to continue to qualify as a REIT or subject the Company to any additional taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code.

(f) 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. 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.

(ii) Second, to the payment and discharge of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the General Partner;

(iii) Third, to the payment and discharge of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the other Partners; and

(iv) The balance, if any, to the General Partner and Limited Partners in accordance with their positive Capital Account balances, determined after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the Partnership taxable year during which the liquidation occurs (other than those made as a result of the liquidating distribution set forth in this Section 13.2(a)(iv)).

The General Partner shall not receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Article 13 other than reimbursement of its expenses as provided in Section 7.4.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.2(a) hereof, 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) and/or distribute to the Partners, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.2(a) hereof, 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 13.3

COMPLIANCE WITH TIMING REQUIREMENTS OF REGULATIONS

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 13 to the General Partner and Limited Partners who have positive Capital Accounts hi compliance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2). Except as otherwise provided in writing signed by the Limited Partner, if any Partner has a deficit balance in his or her Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for the taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), such Partner shall have no obligation to make any 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 Liquidator, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the General Partner and Limited Partners pursuant to this Article 13 may be:

(a) distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the 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. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Partners from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Liquidator, in the same proportions and 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 when the Liquidator determines that the withheld amounts are no longer appropriate such withheld amounts shall be distributed to the Partners as soon as practicable in the manner and order of priority set forth in Section 13.2.

Section 13.4

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 such Limited Partner’s Capital Contribution and shall have no right or power to demand or receive property from the General Partner. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Limited Partner shall have priority over any other Limited Partner as to the return of his Capital Contributions, distributions or allocations.

Section 13.5

NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION

In the event a Liquidating Event occurs or an event occurs that would, but for provisions of Section 13.1, result in a dissolution of the Partnership, the General Partner shall, within 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 13.6

CANCELLATION OF CERTIFICATE OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

Upon the completion of the liquidation of the Partnership cash and property as provided in Section 13.2 hereof, 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.

Section 13.7

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 hereof, in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up, and the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect between the Partners during the period of liquidation.

ARTICLE 16

LTIP UNITS

Section 16.1

DESIGNATION

A class of Partnership Units in the Partnership designated as the “LTIP Units” is hereby established. The number of LTIP Units that may be issued is not limited by this Agreement.

Section 16.2

VESTING

(a) GENERALLY. LTIP Units may, in the sole discretion of the General Partner, be issued subject to vesting, forfeiture and additional restrictions on transfer pursuant to the terms of an award, vesting or other similar agreement (a “Vesting Agreement”). The terms of any Vesting Agreement may be modified by the General Partner from time to time in its sole discretion, subject to any restrictions on amendment imposed by the relevant Vesting Agreement or by the Plan, if applicable. LTIP Units that were fully vested when issued or that have vested and are no longer subject to forfeiture under the terms of a Vesting Agreement are referred to as “Vested LTIP Units”; all other LTIP Units shall be treated as “Unvested LTIP Units.”

(b) FORFEITURE. Unless otherwise specified in the Vesting Agreement, the Plan or in any other applicable compensatory arrangement or incentive program pursuant to which LTIP Units are issued, upon the occurrence of any event specified in such Vesting Agreement, Plan, arrangement or program as resulting in either the right of the Partnership or the General Partner to repurchase LTIP Units at a specified purchase price or some other forfeiture of any LTIP Units, then if the Partnership or the General Partner exercises such right to repurchase or upon the occurrence of the event causing forfeiture in accordance with the applicable Vesting Agreement, Plan, arrangement or program, then the relevant LTIP Units shall immediately, and without any further action, be treated as cancelled and no longer outstanding for any purpose. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Vesting Agreement, Plan, arrangement or program, no consideration or other payment shall be due with respect to any LTIP Units that have been forfeited, other than any distributions declared with respect to a Partnership Record Date and with respect to such units prior to the effective date of the forfeiture. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement (including without limitation Section 6.3(a)(ii)) or any agreement relating to the grant of LTIP Units, in connection with any repurchase or forfeiture of such units, the balance of the portion of the Capital Account of the holder of LTIP Units that is attributable to all of his or her LTIP Units shall be reduced by the amount, if any, by which it exceeds the target balance contemplated by Section 6.3(a)(i), calculated with respect to such holder’s remaining LTIP Units, if any.

Section 16.3

ADJUSTMENTS

The Partnership shall maintain at all times a one-to-one correspondence between LTIP Units and Partnership Common Units for conversion, distribution and other purposes, including without limitation complying with the following procedures; provided, that the foregoing is not intended to alter the special allocations pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(i), differences between distributions to be made with respect to LTIP Units and Partnership Common Units

pursuant to Section 13.2 and Section 16.4(c) in the event that the Capital Accounts attributable to the LTIP Units are less than those attributable to Partnership Common Units due to insufficient special allocation pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(i) or related provisions. If an Adjustment Event occurs, then the General Partner shall take any action reasonably necessary, including any amendment to this Agreement or Exhibit A hereto adjusting the number of outstanding LTIP Units or subdividing or combining outstanding LTIP Units, to maintain a one-for-one conversion and economic equivalence ratio between Partnership Common Units and LTIP Units. The following shall be “Adjustment Events”: (i) the Partnership makes a distribution on all outstanding Partnership Common Units in Partnership Units, (ii) the Partnership subdivides the outstanding Partnership Common Units into a greater number of units or combines the outstanding Partnership Common Units into a smaller number of units, or (iii) the Partnership issues any Partnership Units in exchange for its outstanding Partnership Common Units by way of a reclassification or recapitalization of its Partnership Common Units. If more than one Adjustment Event occurs, any adjustment to the LTIP Units need be made only once using a single formula that takes into account each and every Adjustment Event as if all Adjustment Events occurred simultaneously. For the avoidance of doubt, the following shall not be Adjustment Events: (x) the issuance of Partnership Units in a financing, reorganization, acquisition or other similar business transaction, (y) the issuance of Partnership Units pursuant to any employee benefit or compensation plan or distribution reinvestment plan, or (z) the issuance of any Partnership Units to the General Partner in respect of a Capital Contribution to the Partnership of proceeds from the sale of securities by the General Partner. If the Partnership takes an action affecting the Partnership Common Units other than actions specifically described above as “Adjustment Events” and in the opinion of the General Partner such action would require action to maintain the one-to-one correspondence described above, the General Partner shall have the right to take such action, to the extent permitted by law, the Plan and any other compensatory arrangement or incentive program pursuant to which LTIP Units are issued, in such manner and at such time as the General Partner, in its sole discretion, may determine to be reasonably appropriate under the circumstances. If an amendment is made to this Agreement adjusting the number of outstanding LTIP Units as herein provided, the Partnership shall promptly file in the books and records of the Partnership an officer’s certificate setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent manifest error. Promptly after filing of such certificate, the Partnership shall mail a notice to each LTIP Unit Limited Partner setting forth the adjustment to his or her LTIP Units and the effective date of such adjustment.

Section 16.4

DISTRIBUTIONS

(a) DISTRIBUTIONS GENERALLY. Distributions on the LTIP Units, if authorized, shall be payable on such dates and in such manner as may be authorized by the General Partner (any such date, an “LTIP Unit Distribution Participation Date”); provided that the LTIP Unit Distribution Participation Date shall be the same as the corresponding date relating to the corresponding distribution on the Partnership Common Units. The record date for determining which Holders of LTIP Units are entitled to receive a distributions shall be the corresponding Partnership Record Date.

(b) OPERATING DISTRIBUTIONS. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Plan, any applicable Vesting Agreement or by the General Partner with respect

to any particular class or series of LTIP Units, holders of LTIP Units shall be entitled to receive, if, when and as authorized by the General Partner out of funds or other property legally available for the payment of distributions, regular, special, extraordinary or other distributions (other than distributions upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event or proceeds from a Terminating Capital Transaction) which may be made from time to time, in an amount per unit equal to the amount of any such distributions that would have been payable to such holders if the LTIP Units had been Partnership Common Units (if applicable, assuming such LTIP Units were held for the entire period to which such distributions relate), provided that the amount of such distributions shall not exceed the positive balances of the Capital Accounts of the holders of such LTIP Units to the extent attributable to the ownership of such LTIP Units. In the event any holder of LTIP Units fails to receive any distribution to which it would otherwise be entitled as a result of the foregoing, then, subject to the limitations set forth above, such holder shall be entitled to receive, prior to any distributions otherwise being made to any other Partner pursuant to Section 5.1 or otherwise, and the Partnership shall make to such holder of LTIP Units, a special distribution of Available Cash equal in amount to any distribution the holder previously failed to receive (including its proportionate share of any further distribution made to the other Partners in respect of amounts not distributed to such holder by operation of this provision), with such special distribution being made as soon as it is reasonably practicable to do so in compliance with the foregoing limitation. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that more than one holder of LTIP Units is entitled to receive a special distribution pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, then each such holder shall be entitled to receive such special distributions in proportion to the relative amounts of the aggregate special distributions to which each is entitled as of such times.

(c) LIQUIDATING DISTRIBUTIONS. Holders of LTIP Units shall also be entitled to receive, if, when and as authorized by the General Partner out of funds or other property legally available for the payment of distributions, distributions upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event or representing proceeds from a Terminating Capital Transaction in accordance with Section 13.2.

Section 16.5

ALLOCATIONS

Holders of LTIP Units shall be allocated Net Income and Net Loss in amounts per LTIP Unit equal to the amounts allocated per Partnership Common Unit. The allocations provided by the preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 6.2(a) and in addition to any special allocations required by Section 6.3(a)(i) and Section 6.3(b).

Section 16.6

TRANSFERS

Subject to the terms of any Vesting Agreement, a holder of LTIP Units shall be entitled to transfer his or her LTIP Units to the same extent, and subject to the same restrictions as holders of Partnership Common Units are entitled to transfer their Partnership Common Units pursuant to Article 11.

Section 16.7

REDEMPTION

The right to Redemption provided to under Section 8.6 shall not apply with respect to LTIP Units unless and until any such LTIP Units are converted to Partnership Common Units as provided in Section 16.9 below.

Section 16.8

LEGEND

Any certificate evidencing an LTIP Unit shall bear an appropriate legend indicating that additional terms, conditions and restrictions on transfer, including without limitation any Vesting Agreement, apply to the LTIP Unit.

Section 16.9

CONVERSION TO PARTNERSHIP COMMON UNIT

(a) A holder of LTIP Units shall have the right (the “Conversion Right”), at his or her option, at any time to convert all or a portion of his or her Vested LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units; provided, however, that such holder may not exercise the Conversion Right for less than one thousand (1,000) Vested LTIP Units or, if such holder holds less than one thousand (1,000) Vested LTIP Units, all of the Vested LTIP Units held by such holder. Holders of LTIP Units shall not have the right to convert Unvested LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units until they become Vested LTIP Units; provided, however, that when a holder of LTIP Units is notified of the expected occurrence of an event that will cause his or her Unvested LTIP Units to become Vested LTIP Units, such holder may give the Partnership a Conversion Notice conditioned upon and effective as of the time of vesting and such Conversion Notice, unless subsequently revoked by the holder, shall be accepted by the Partnership subject to such condition. In all cases, the conversion of any LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units shall be subject to the conditions and procedures set forth in this Section 16.9.

(b) A holder of LTIP Units may convert his or her Vested LTIP Units into an equal number of fully paid and non-assessable Partnership Common Units, giving effect to all adjustments (if any) made pursuant to Section 16.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may a holder of LTIP Units convert a number of Vested LTIP Units that exceeds (x) the Economic Capital Account Balance of such holder, to the extent attributable to his or her ownership of LTIP Units, divided by (y) the Common Unit Economic Balance, in each case as determined as of the effective date of conversion (the “Capital Account Limitation”). In order to exercise his or her Conversion Right, a holder of LTIP Units shall deliver a notice (a “Conversion Notice”) in the form attached as Exhibit E to the Partnership (with a copy to the General Partner) not less than three nor more than 10 days prior to a date (the “Conversion Date”) specified in such Conversion Notice; provided, however, that if the General Partner has not given to the holder of LTIP Units notice of a proposed or upcoming Transaction (as defined below) at least 30 days prior to the effective date of such Transaction, then the holder shall have the right to deliver a Conversion Notice until the earlier of (x) the 10th day after such notice from the General Partner of a Transaction or (y) the third Business Day immediately preceding the effective date of such Transaction. Each holder of LTIP Units seeking to convert Vested LTIP Units covenants and agrees with the Partnership that all Vested LTIP Units to be converted pursuant to this Section 16.9 shall be free and clear of all liens. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a holder of LTIP Units may deliver a Notice of Redemption pursuant to Section 8.6 relating to such Partnership Common Units in advance of the Conversion Date; provided, however, that the redemption of such Partnership Common Units by the Partnership shall in no

event take place until on or after the Conversion Date. For clarity, it is noted that the objective of this paragraph is to put a holder of LTIP Units in a position where, if he or she so wishes, the Partnership Common Units into which his or her Vested LTIP Units will be converted can be redeemed by the Partnership pursuant to Section 8.6 simultaneously with such conversion, with the further consequence that, if the General Partner elects to assume the Partnership’s redemption obligation with respect to such Partnership Common Units under Section 8.6 by delivering to such holder REIT Shares rather than cash, then such holder of LTIP Units can have such REIT Shares issued to him or her simultaneously with the conversion of his or her Vested LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units. The General Partner shall cooperate with a holder of LTIP Units to coordinate the timing of the different events described in the foregoing sentence.

(c) The Partnership, at any time at the election of the General Partner, may cause any number of Vested LTIP Units to be converted (a “Forced Conversion”) into an equal number of Partnership Common Units, giving effect to all adjustments (if any) made pursuant to Section 16.3; provided, however, that the Partnership may not cause a Forced Conversion of any LTIP Units that would not at the time be eligible for conversion at the option of a holder of LTIP Units pursuant to Section 16.9(b). In order to exercise its right of Forced Conversion, the Partnership shall deliver a notice (a “Forced Conversion Notice”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F to the applicable Holder of LTIP Units not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Conversion Date specified in such Forced Conversion Notice.

(d) A conversion of Vested LTIP Units for which the holder thereof has given a Conversion Notice or the Partnership has given a Forced Conversion Notice shall occur automatically after the close of business on the applicable Conversion Date without any action on the part of such holder of LTIP Units other than the surrender of any certificate or certificates evidencing such Vested LTIP Units, as of which time such holder of LTIP Units shall be credited on the books and records of the Partnership as of the opening of business on the next day with the number of Partnership Common Units into which such LTIP Units were converted. After the conversion of LTIP Units as aforesaid, the Partnership shall deliver to such holder of LTIP Units, upon his or her written request, a certificate of the General Partner certifying the number of Partnership Common Units and remaining LTIP Units, if any, held by such holder immediately after such conversion. The Assignee of any Limited Partner pursuant to Article 11 may exercise the rights of such Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 16.9 and such Limited Partner shall be bound by the exercise of such rights by the Assignee.

(e) For purposes of making future allocations under Section 6.3(a)(i) and applying the Capital Account Limitation, the portion of the Economic Capital Account Balance of the applicable Holder of LTIP Units that is treated as attributable to his or her LTIP Units shall be reduced, as of the date of conversion, by the product of the number of LTIP Units converted and the Common Unit Economic Balance.

(f) If the Partnership or the General Partner shall be a party to any transaction (including without limitation a merger, consolidation, unit exchange, self tender offer for all or substantially all Partnership Common Units or other business combination or reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets, but excluding any transaction which constitutes an Adjustment Event) in each case as a result of which Partnership Common Units shall be exchanged for or converted into the right, or the holders shall otherwise be entitled, to

receive cash, securities or other property or any combination thereof (each of the foregoing being referred to herein as a “Transaction”), then the General Partner shall, immediately prior to the Transaction, exercise its right to cause a Forced Conversion with respect to the maximum number of LTIP Units then eligible for conversion, taking into account any allocations that occur in connection with the Transaction or that would occur in connection with the Transaction if the assets of the Partnership were sold at the Transaction price or, if applicable, at a value determined by the General Partner in good faith using the value attributed to the Partnership Common Units in the context of the Transaction (in which case the Conversion Date shall be the effective date of the Transaction). In anticipation of such Forced Conversion and the consummation of the Transaction, the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each holder of LTIP Units to be afforded the right to receive in connection with such Transaction in consideration for the Partnership Common Units into which his or her LTIP Units will be converted the same kind and amount of cash, securities and other property (or any combination thereof) receivable upon the consummation of such Transaction by a holder of the same number of Partnership Common Units, assuming such holder is not a Person with which the Partnership consolidated or into which the Partnership merged or which merged into the Partnership or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (a “Constituent Person”), or an affiliate of a Constituent Person. In the event that holders of Partnership Common Units have the opportunity to elect the form or type of consideration to be received upon consummation of the Transaction, prior to such Transaction the General Partner shall give prompt written notice to each holder of LTIP Units of such opportunity, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to afford such holder the right to elect, by written notice to the General Partner, the form or type of consideration to be received upon conversion of each LTIP Unit held by such holder into Partnership Common Units in connection with such Transaction. If a holder of LTIP Units fails to make such an election, such holder (and any of its transferees) shall receive upon conversion of each LTIP Unit held by him or her (or by any of his or her transferees) the same kind and amount of consideration that a holder of Partnership Common Units would receive if such holder of Partnership Common Units failed to make such an election. Subject to the rights of the Partnership and the General Partner under any Vesting Agreement and the relevant terms of the Plan, the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable effort to cause the terms of any Transaction to be consistent with the provisions of this Section 16.9(f) and to enter into an agreement with the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, for the benefit of any holder of LTIP Units whose LTIP Units will not be converted into Partnership Common Units in connection with the Transaction that will (i) contain provisions enabling any holders of LTIP Units that remain outstanding after such Transaction to convert their LTIP Units into securities as comparable as reasonably possible under the circumstances to the Partnership Common Units and (ii) preserve as far as reasonably possible under the circumstances the distribution, special allocation, conversion, and other rights set forth in the Agreement for the benefit of the holders of LTIP Units.

Section 16.10

VOTING

Holders of LTIP Units shall have the same voting rights as Limited Partners holding Partnership Common Units, with the holders of LTIP Units voting together as a single class with the Partnership Common Units and having one vote per LTIP Unit, and holders of LTIP Units shall not be entitled to approve, vote on or consent to any other matter.

Section 16.11

SERIES D CUMULATIVE REDEEMABLE

PREFERRED LIMITED

PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS

The following is a description of the preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to distribution, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of the Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Limited Partnership Interests of the Limited Partnership:

(a) Designation and Amount.

The designation of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests shall be 8.00% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Limited Partnership Interests. The number of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests to be authorized shall be 5,421,296.

(b) Distribution Provisions.

(i) Subject to the rights of series of Preferred Limited Partnership Interests which may from time to time come into existence, holders of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the General Partner, out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions, cumulative preferential cash distributions at the rate of 8.00% per annum of the Liquidation Preference (as hereinafter defined) per unit (equivalent to a fixed amount of $2.00 per unit). Such distributions shall be cumulative from the date of original issue and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on or before the 15th day of each of January, April, July and October or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day (each, a “Distribution Payment Date”). The first distribution for the additional 1,046,400 units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests issued on May 18, 2011, will be due on July 15, 2011 and will be for less than a full quarter. Any distribution payable on Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests for any partial distribution period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Distributions will be payable to holders of record as they appear in the records of the Partnership at the close of business on the last business day of March, June, September and December, respectively or on such date designated by the General Partner of the Partnership for the payment of distributions that is not more than 30 nor less than 10 days prior to such Distribution Payment Date (each, a “Distribution Record Date”).

(ii) No distributions on units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests shall be declared by the General Partner or be paid or set apart for payment by the Partnership, at any time when the terms and provisions of any agreement to which the Partnership is a party, including any agreement relating to its indebtedness, that prohibits such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment or provides that such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment would constitute a breach thereof or a default thereunder, or if such declaration or payment shall be restricted or prohibited by law.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions on the units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests will accrue whether or not the Partnership has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such distributions

and whether or not such distributions are declared. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any distribution payment or payments on Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests which may be in arrears.

(iv) Capital gains shall be allocated to the holders of the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests in the same proportion that the total distributions paid or made available to the holders of the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests for the Fiscal Year bears to the total distributions paid or made available for the Fiscal Year to holders of all classes of Partnership Interests.

(v) If any units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests are outstanding, no full distributions (other than in units of Common Partnership Interests or other capital stock ranking junior to Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests as to distributions and upon liquidation) shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment on any units of series of Preferred Limited Partnership Interests of the Partnership ranking, as to distributions, on a parity with or junior to the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests for any period unless full cumulative distributions have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for such payments on units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests for all past distribution periods and the then current distribution period. When distributions are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart) upon the units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and the units of any other series of Preferred Limited Partnership Interests ranking on a parity as to distributions with units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests, all distributions declared upon units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and any other series of Preferred Limited Partnership Interests ranking on a parity as to distributions with Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests shall be declared pro rata so that the amount of distributions declared per unit on Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and such other series of Preferred Limited Partnership Interests shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued distributions per unit on Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and such other series of Preferred Limited Partnership Interests bear to each other.

(vi) Unless full cumulative distributions on units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past distribution periods and the then current distribution period, no distributions (other than in units of Common Partnership Interests or other partnership interests ranking junior to Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests as to distributions and upon liquidation) shall be declared or paid or set aside for payment nor shall any other distribution be declared or made upon the Common Partnership Interests or any other partnership interests of the Partnership ranking junior to or on a parity with the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests as to distributions or upon liquidation, nor shall any units of Common Partnership Interests or any other units of partnership interests of the Partnership ranking junior to or on a parity with the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests as to distributions or upon liquidation be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any monies be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such partnership interests) by the Partnership or any affiliate or any person acting on behalf of the Partnership or any of its affiliates (except by conversion into or exchange for other partnership interests of the Partnership ranking junior to Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests as to distributions and amounts upon liquidation or redemptions for the purpose of preserving the Company’s status as a REIT).

(vii) Any distribution payment made on units of the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid distribution due with respect to units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests which remains payable.

(viii) For the sole purpose of determining whether any distribution made on units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests is permitted under Delaware Law, amounts that would be needed, if the Partnership were dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of partners whose preferential rights on dissolution are superior to those receiving the distribution shall not be added to the Partnership’s total liabilities.

(i) Subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Limited Partnership Interests which by its terms expressly ranks senior to the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests in respect of the right to receive payment of the distribution of assets upon liquidation of the Partnership, which may from time to time come into existence, upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Partnership, then, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any units of Common Partnership Interests or any other class or series of partnership interests of the Partnership ranking junior to Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests in the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Partnership, the holders of units of the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests shall be entitled to receive out of assets of the Partnership legally available for distribution to stockholders, liquidation distributions in the amount of the liquidation preference of $25.00 per unit, plus an amount equal to all distributions accrued and unpaid thereon (the “Liquidation Preference”). Holders of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests will be entitled to written notice of any event triggering the right to receive such Liquidation Preference. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Partnership. In the event that, upon any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Partnership, the available assets of the Partnership are insufficient to pay the amount of the liquidation distributions on all outstanding units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and the corresponding amounts payable on all units of other classes or series of partnership interests of the Partnership ranking on a parity with Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests in the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Partnership (“Parity Units”), then the holders of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and Parity Units shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.

(ii) A consolidation or merger of the Partnership with or into any other entity or entities, or a sale, lease, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets

of the Partnership or the effectuation by the Partnership of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Partnership is disposed of, shall not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Partnership within the meaning of this Section A.3.

(d) Redemption.

(i) The Partnership, at its option, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days written notice, may redeem outstanding units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per unit, plus an amount equal to all distributions accrued and unpaid thereon to the date fixed for redemption, without interest. Holders of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests to be redeemed shall surrender such units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests at the place designated in such notice and shall be entitled to the redemption price and any accrued and unpaid distributions payable upon such redemption following such surrender. If fewer than all of the outstanding units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests are to be redeemed, the number of units to be redeemed will be determined by the Partnership and such units may be redeemed pro rata from the holders of record of such units in proportion to the number of such units held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional units) or by lot in a manner determined by the Partnership.

(ii) Unless full cumulative distributions on all units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and Parity Units shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past distribution periods and the then current distribution period, no units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests or Parity Units shall be redeemed unless all outstanding units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and Parity Units are simultaneously redeemed; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent redemption in accordance with Article V of the Charter of the Company or the purchase or acquisition of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests or Parity Units pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to holders of all outstanding units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests or Parity Units, as the case may be. Furthermore, unless full cumulative distributions on all outstanding units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and Parity Units have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past distribution periods and the then current distribution period, the Partnership shall not purchase or otherwise acquire directly or indirectly any units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests or Parity Units (except by conversion into or exchange for units of partnership interests of the Partnership ranking junior to Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and Parity Units as to distributions and upon liquidation).

(iii) Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of record of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests at the address shown on the books of the Partnership. Each notice shall state: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the number of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests to be redeemed; (iii) the redemption price per unit; (iv) the place or places where certificates for units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests are to be

surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (v) that distributions on units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests will cease to accrue on such redemption date. If fewer than all units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests are to be redeemed, the notice mailed to each such holder thereof shall also specify the number of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests to be redeemed from each such holder. If notice of redemption of any units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests has been given and if the funds necessary for such redemption have been set aside by the Partnership in trust for the benefit of the holders of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests so called for redemption, then from and after the redemption date, distributions will cease to accrue on such units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests, such units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests shall no longer be deemed outstanding and all rights of the holders of such units will terminate, except the right to receive the redemption price.

(iv) The holders of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests at the close of business on a Distribution Record Date will be entitled to receive the distribution payable with respect to such units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests on the corresponding Distribution Payment Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Distribution Record Date and the corresponding Distribution Payment Date or the Partnership’s default in the payment of the distribution due. Except as provided above, the Partnership will make no payment or allowance for unpaid distributions, whether or not in arrears, on units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests which have been called for redemption.

(v) Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests has no stated maturity and will not be subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption, except as provided in Article V of the Charter of the Company.

(e) Voting Rights.

(i) Except as indicated in this Section A.5(a), or except as otherwise from time to time required by applicable law, the holders of units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests will have no voting rights.

(ii) So long as any units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests remain outstanding, the Partnership will not without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the units of the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (voting separately as a class), (a) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of partnership interests ranking senior to the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or reclassify any authorized partnership interests of the Partnership into such units, or create, authorize or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such units; or (b) amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Partnership’s Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (an “Event”), so as to materially and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests or the holders thereof; provided, however, with respect to the occurrence of

any Event set forth in (b) above, so long as the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests remains outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged, taking into account that upon the occurrence of an Event the Partnership may not be the surviving entity, the occurrence of any such Event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of holders of the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests and provided further that: (i) any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Limited Partnership Interests or the creation or issuance of any series of Preferred Limited Partnership Interests, or (ii) any increase in the amount of authorized units of such series (including the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests), in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.

(iii) Except as provided above and as required by law, the holders of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests are not entitled to vote on any merger or consolidation involving the Partnership, on any unit exchange or on a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership.

(f) Conversion.

The units of Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests are not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Partnership.

(g) Ranking.

In respect of the right to the payment of distributions and the distribution of assets in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Partnership, the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests shall rank: (i) senior to the Partnership’s Common Partnership Interests and to any other class or series of partnership interests of the Partnership other than any class or series referred to in clause (ii), and (ii) junior to any class or series of partnership interests of the Partnership ranking senior to the Series D Preferred Limited Partnership Interests as to the payment of distributions and the distribution of assets in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership. For avoidance of doubt, debt securities of the Partnership which are convertible into or exchangeable for units of partnership interests of the Partnership shall not constitute a class or series of partnership interests of the Partnership.
