BANKBOSTON, N.A., as Managing Agent for the Banks (the "Agent").

                            RECITALS.

    WHEREAS, Borrowers have requested that the Banks provide a
revolving credit facility to Borrowers; and

    WHEREAS, Agent and the Banks are willing to provide such
facility to Borrowers upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein;

    NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals herein and
the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto amend
and restate the Original Credit Agreement in its entirety as
follows:

    SECTION 1.  DEFINITIONS AND RULES OF INTERPRETATION.

    Section 1.1.  Definitions.  The following terms shall have the
meanings set forth in this Section l or elsewhere in the provisions of
this Agreement referred to below:

    Agent.  BankBoston, N.A. acting as managing agent for the
Banks, its successors and assigns.

    Agent's Head Office.  The Agent's head office located at 100
Federal Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, or at such other
location as the Agent may designate from time to time by notice
to the Borrowers and the Banks.

    Agent's Special Counsel.  Long Aldridge & Norman LLP or such
other counsel as may be approved by the Agent.

    Agreement.  This First Amended and Restated Revolving Credit
Agreement, including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto.

    Agreement Regarding Fees.  The Agreement Regarding Fees
dated of even date herewith between the Borrowers and BKB.

    Applicable Margin.  On any date that the lower of the
Implied Ratings issued from time to time by either of the Rating
Agencies for Walden is an Investment Grade Rating, the applicable
margin set forth below based on the lower of the Implied Ratings
issued by either of the Rating Agencies and the type of the Loan:

         Rating              Base Rate Loans               LIBOR
Rate Loans


    BBB+/Baa1 or better                0%                  1.00%

    BBB/Baa2                 0.125%                   1.125%

    BBB-/Baa3                     0.25%                    1.25%

provided, however, that on any date that the lower of the Implied
Ratings for Walden is not an Investment Grade Rating or Walden
has not obtained a rating from either of the Rating Agencies, the
Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans shall be 0.50% and the
Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans shall be 1.375%.  In the
event of any change in an Implied Rating of Walden by either of
the Rating Agencies or if Walden's Implied Rating shall cease at
any time to be an Investment Grade Rating by either of the Rating
Agencies (but subject to the provisions within the definition of
the term "Investment Grade Rating"), such change shall effect a
change in the Applicable Margin on the first Business Day after
the Rating Notice Date.  It is the intention of the parties that
if Walden shall only obtain an Investment Grade Rating from one
of the Rating Agencies without seeking an Investment Grade Rating
from the other of the Rating Agencies, the Borrowers shall be
entitled to the benefit of the rate reductions described above;
provided that if Walden shall have obtained an Investment Grade
Rating from both of the Rating Agencies, the lower of the two
ratings (or the loss of the Investment Grade Rating from one of
the Rating Agencies thereafter), shall control.

purchased in such transaction.

    SECTION 2.  THE REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

    Section 2.1.  Commitment to Lend.  Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Banks
severally agrees to lend to the Borrowers, and the Borrowers may
borrow (and repay and reborrow) from time to time between the
Closing Date and the Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrowers
to the Agent given in accordance with Section 2.6, such sums as are
requested by the Borrowers for the purposes set forth in Section 7.11 up
to the lesser of (a) a maximum aggregate principal amount
outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any
one time equal to such Bank's Commitment and (b) such Bank's
Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing Base, provided, that, in
all events no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing; and provided, further, that the outstanding
principal amount of the Loans (after giving effect to all amounts
requested) shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment.
The Loans (other than Swing Loans) shall be made pro rata in
accordance with each Bank's Commitment Percentage.  Each request
for a Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and
warranty by the Borrowers that all of the conditions set forth in
Section 10 and Section 11, in the case of the initial Loan, and Section 11,
in the case of all other Loans, have been satisfied on the date of such
request.  No Bank shall have any obligation to make Loans to the
Borrowers in the maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding
of more than the principal face amount of its Note.

    Section 2.2.  Facility Fee.  The Borrowers agree to pay to the
Agent for the account of the Banks in accordance with their
respective Commitment Percentages a facility fee calculated at
the rate per annum as set forth below on the average daily amount
by which the Total Commitment exceeds the outstanding principal
amount of Loans during each calendar quarter or portion thereof
commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Maturity Date.
The facility fee shall be calculated based on the ratio
(expressed as a percentage) of (a) the average daily amount of
the outstanding principal amount of the Loans during such quarter
to (b) the Total Commitment as follows:

         Ratio of Outstanding Principal
         Balance to Total Commitment             Rate

                   33.33% or less                0.25%
          Greater than 33.33% but not
                   more than 66.67%                   0.20%
                Greater than 66.67%                   0.15%

The facility fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the
first day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding
calendar quarter or portion thereof, and on any earlier date on
which the Commitments shall be reduced or shall terminate as
provided in Section 2.3, with a final payment on the Maturity Date.

    Section 2.3.  Reduction and Termination of Commitment.  The
Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time
upon five Business Days' prior written notice to the Agent to
reduce by $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof (provided that in no event shall the Total
Commitment be reduced to an amount less than $50,000,000.00) or
to terminate entirely the unborrowed portion of the Commitments,
whereupon the Commitments of the Banks shall be reduced pro rata
in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages of the
amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be,
terminated, any such termination or reduction to be without
penalty (unless such termination or reduction requires repayment
of a LIBOR Rate Loan); provided, however, that no such
termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving
effect thereto, the Outstanding Loans would exceed the
Commitments of the Banks as so terminated or reduced.  In the
event that as a result of the reduction or termination of the
Commitments, the Commitment of the Swing Loan Bank shall be
reduced to an amount less than the Swing Loan Commitment, the
Swing Loan Commitment shall automatically and without further
action of the parties be reduced to an equal amount.  Promptly
after receiving any notice of the Borrowers delivered pursuant to
this Section 2.3, the Agent will notify the Banks of the substance
thereof.  Upon the effective date of any such reduction or
termination, the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent for the
respective accounts of the Banks the full amount of any facility
fee under Section 2.2 then accrued on the amount of the reduction.  No
reduction or termination of the Commitment or Swing Loan
Commitment may be reinstated.

    Section 2.4.  Notes.  The Loans (other than Swing Loans) shall be
evidenced by separate promissory notes of the Borrowers in
substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (collectively, the
"Revolving Credit Notes"), dated the date of this Agreement and
completed with appropriate insertions.  One Revolving Credit Note
shall be payable to the order of each Bank in the principal face
amount equal to such Bank's Commitment and shall be payable as
set forth below.  The Borrowers irrevocably authorize each Bank
to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown
Date of any Loan (other than Swing Loans) or at the time of
receipt of any payment of principal thereof, an appropriate
notation on such Bank's Record reflecting the making of such Loan
or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment.  The
outstanding amount of the Loans (other than Swing Loans) set
forth on such Bank's Record shall be prima facie evidence of the
principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Bank, but the
failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount
on such Bank's Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the
obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under any Revolving
Credit Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any
Revolving Credit Note when due.

    Section 2.4A  Swing Loan Commitments.

         (a)  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, and if necessary to meet the Borrowers' funding
deadlines, Swing Loan Bank agrees to lend to the Borrowers (the
"Swing Loans"), and the Borrowers may borrow (and repay and
reborrow) from time to time between the Closing Date and the date
which is seven (7) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date upon
notice by the Borrowers to the Swing Loan Bank given in
accordance with this Section 2.4A, such sums as are requested by the
Borrowers for the purposes set forth in Section 7.11 in an aggregate
principal amount at any one time outstanding not exceeding the
Swing Loan Commitment; provided that at no time shall the
aggregate principal balance of Swing Loans then outstanding, when
added to the Swing Loan Bank's Commitment Percentage of all other
Outstanding Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested),
exceed the lesser of (i) such Bank's Commitment and (ii) such
Bank's Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing Base, provided,
further, that in all events no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing; and provided, further, that the
outstanding principal amount of the Loans (after giving effect to
all amounts requested) shall not at any time exceed the Total
Commitment.  Swing Loans shall constitute "Loans" for all
purposes hereunder, but shall not be considered the utilization
of a Bank's Commitment.  The funding of a Swing Loan hereunder
shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrowers
that all of the conditions set forth in Section 10 and Section 11, in the case
of the initial Swing Loan, and Section 11, in the case of all other
Swing Loans, have been satisfied on the date of such funding.

         (b)  The Swing Loans shall be evidenced by a separate
promissory note of the Borrowers in substantially the form of
Exhibit B hereto (the "Swing Loan Note"), dated the date of this
Agreement and completed with appropriate insertions.  The Swing
Loan Note shall be payable to the order of the Swing Loan Bank in
the principal face amount equal to the Swing Loan Commitment and
shall be payable as set forth below.  The Borrowers irrevocably
authorize the Swing Loan Bank to make or cause to be made, at or
about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Swing Loan or at the
time of receipt of any payment of principal thereof, an
appropriate notation on the Swing Loan Bank's Record reflecting
the making of such Swing Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt
of such payment.  The outstanding amount of the Swing Loans set
forth on the Swing Loan Bank's Record shall be prima facia
evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to the
Swing Loan Bank, but the failure to record, or any error in so
recording, any such amount on the Swing Loan Bank's Record shall
not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers
hereunder or under the Swing Loan Note to make payments of
principal of or interest on any Swing Loan Note when due.

         (c)  Each borrowing of Swing Loan shall be subject to
the limits for Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans set forth in
Section 2.6.  Borrowers shall request a Swing Loan by delivering to the
Swing Loan Bank a Loan Request no later than 9:00 a.m. (Boston
time) on the requested Drawdown Date specifying the amount of the
requested Swing Loan.  The Loan Request shall also contain the
statements and certifications required by Section 2.6(i) and (ii).  Each
such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the
Borrowers and shall obligate the Borrowers to accept such Swing
Loan on the Drawdown Date.  Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, a Swing Loan shall either be a Base Rate Loan or a
LIBOR Rate Loan having an Interest Period of one month, and in
the event that the Borrowers fail to specify whether they have
selected a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrowers
shall be deemed conclusively to have selected a LIBOR Rate Loan
with an Interest Period of one month.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, upon the date that the Banks shall be required to fund
the Loans pursuant to Section 2.4A(d) to refund such Swing Loan, the
interest rate shall be reset to a LIBOR Rate Loan with an
Interest Period as specified in the Loan Request given by the
Borrowers to the Agent in connection with such Swing Loan, or if
no Interest Period is specified, then as a Base Rate Loan.  The
proceeds of the Swing Loan will be made available by the Swing
Loan Bank to the Borrowers at the Agent's Head Office by
crediting the account of the Borrowers at such office with such
proceeds.

         (d)  The Swing Loan Bank shall within three (3)
Business Days after the Drawdown Date with respect to such Swing
Loan, request each Bank, including the Swing Loan Bank, to make a
Loan pursuant to Section 2.1 in an amount equal to such Bank's
Commitment Percentage of the amount of the Swing Loan outstanding
on the date such notice is given.  Borrowers hereby irrevocably
authorize and direct the Swing Loan Bank to so act on its behalf,
and agree that any amount advanced to the Agent for the benefit
of the Swing Loan Bank pursuant to this Section 2.4A(d) shall be
considered a Loan pursuant to Section 2.1.  Unless any of the events
described in paragraph (h), (i) or (j) of Section 12.1 shall have
occurred (in which event the procedures of Section 2.4A(e) shall apply),
each Bank shall make the proceeds of its Loan available to the
Swing Loan Bank for the account of the Swing Loan Bank at the
Agent's Head Office prior to 12:00 noon (Boston time) in funds
immediately available no later than the third (3rd) Business Day
after the date such notice is given just as if the Banks were
funding directly to the Borrowers, so that thereafter such
Obligations shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes.
The proceeds of such Loan shall be immediately applied to repay
the Swing Loans.

         (e)  If prior to the making of a Loan pursuant to
Section 2.4A(d) by all of the Banks,  one of the events described in
Section 12.1(h), (i) or (j) shall have occurred, each Bank will, on the
date such Loan pursuant to Section 2.4A(d) was to have been made,
purchase an undivided participating interest in the Swing Loan in
an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of such Swing Loan.
Each Bank will immediately transfer to the Swing Loan Bank in
immediately available funds the amount of its participation and
upon receipt thereof the Swing Loan Bank will deliver to such
Bank a Swing Loan participation certificate dated the date of
receipt of such funds and in such amount.

         (f)  Whenever at any time after the Swing Loan Bank has
received from any Bank such Bank's participating interest in a
Swing Loan, the Swing Loan Bank receives any payment on account
thereof, the Swing Loan Bank will distribute to such Bank its
participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in
the case of interest payments to reflect the period of time
during which such Bank's participating interest was outstanding
and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such
payment received by the Swing Loan Bank is required to be
returned, such Bank will return to the Swing Loan Bank any
portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Loan Bank to
it.

         (g)  Each Bank's obligation to fund a Loan as provided
in Section 2.4A(d) or to purchase participating interests pursuant to
Section 2.4A(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation,
(i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right
which such Bank or the Borrowers or Guarantors may have against
the Swing Loan Bank, the Borrowers or Guarantors or anyone else
for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of
a Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the
condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrowers or Guarantors
or any of their respective Subsidiaries; (iv) any breach of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by the Borrowers or
Guarantors or any Bank; or (v) any other circumstance, happening
or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing.  Any portions of a Swing Loan not so purchased or
converted may be treated by the Swing Loan Bank as a Loan which
was not funded by the non-purchasing Bank as contemplated by Section 2.7
and Section 12.4.  Each Swing Loan, once so sold or converted, shall
cease to be a Swing Loan for the purposes of this Agreement, but
shall be a Loan made by each Bank under its Commitment.

    Section 2.5.  Interest on Loans

         (a)  Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the
period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on
the date on which such Base Rate Loan is repaid or converted to a
LIBOR Rate Loan at the rate per annum equal to the sum of the
Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate.

         (b)  Each LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest for the
period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on
the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto at the
rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the
LIBOR Rate determined for such Interest Period.

         (c)  The Borrowers promise to pay interest on each Loan
in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto.

         (d)  Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans may be
converted to Loans of the other Type as provided in Section 4.1.

    Section 2.6.  Requests for Loans.  Except with respect to the
initial Loan on the Closing Date and Swing Loans, the Borrowers
(a) shall notify the Agent of a potential request for a Loan as
soon as possible, and (b) shall give to the Agent written notice
in the form of Exhibit C hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed
in writing in the form of Exhibit C hereto) of each Loan
requested hereunder (a "Loan Request") no less than five (5)
Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date.  Each such
notice shall specify with respect to the requested Loan the
proposed principal amount, Drawdown Date, Interest Period (if
applicable) and Type.  Each such notice shall also contain (i) a
statement as to the purpose for which such advance shall be used
(which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of Section 7.11),
and (ii) a certification by the chief financial or chief
accounting officer of the sole general partner of WDOP and the
chief financial or chief accounting officer of Walden that the
Borrowers are and will be in compliance with all covenants under
the Loan Documents after giving effect to the making of such
Loan. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Agent shall
notify each of the Banks thereof.  Except as provided in this
Section 2.6, each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on
the Borrowers and shall obligate the Borrowers to accept the Loan
requested from the Banks on the proposed Drawdown Date, provided
that, in addition to the Borrowers' other remedies against any
Bank which fails to advance its proportionate share of a
requested Loan, such Loan Request may be revoked by the Borrowers
by notice received by the Agent no later than the Drawdown Date
if any Bank fails to advance its proportionate share of the
requested Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
provided further that the Borrowers shall be liable in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement to any Bank which is prepared to
advance its proportionate share of the requested Loan for any
costs, expenses or damages incurred by such Bank as a result of
the Borrowers' election to revoke such Loan Request.  Nothing
herein shall prevent the Borrowers from seeking recourse against
any Bank that fails to advance its proportionate share of a
requested Loan as required by this Agreement.  The Borrowers may
without cost or penalty revoke a Loan Request by delivering
notice thereof to each of the Banks no later than three (3)
Business Days prior to the Drawdown Date.  Each Loan Request
shall be (a) for a Base Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount
of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess
thereof, or (b) for a LIBOR Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate
amount of $2,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in
excess thereof; provided, however, that there shall be no more
than ten (10) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.

    Section 2.7.  Funds for Loans.

         (a)  Not later than 11:00 a.m. (Boston time) on the
proposed Drawdown Date of any Loans (other than Swing Loans),
each of the Banks will make available to the Agent, at the
Agent's Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount
of such Bank's Commitment Percentage of the amount of the
requested Loans which may be disbursed pursuant to Section 2.1.  Upon
receipt from each Bank of such amount, and upon receipt of the
documents required by Section 10 and Section 11 and the satisfaction of the
other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the
Agent will make available to the Borrowers the aggregate amount
of such Loans made available to the Agent by the Banks by
crediting such amount to the account of the Borrowers maintained
at the Agent's Head Office.  The failure or refusal of any Bank
to make available to the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on
any Drawdown Date the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the
requested Loans shall not relieve any other Bank from its several
obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the amount of
such other Bank's Commitment Percentage of any requested Loans,
including any additional Loans that may be requested subject to
the terms and conditions hereof to provide funds to replace those
not advanced by the Bank so failing or refusing, provided that
the Borrowers may by notice received by the Agent no later than
the Drawdown Date refuse to accept any Loan which is not fully
funded in accordance with the Borrowers' Loan Request subject to
the terms of Section 2.6.  In the event of any such failure or refusal,
the Banks not so failing or refusing shall be entitled to a
priority position as against the Bank or Banks so failing or
refusing for such Loans as provided in Section 12.4.

         (b)  Unless Agent shall have been notified by any Bank
prior to the applicable Drawdown Date that such Bank will not
make available to Agent such Bank's pro rata share of a proposed
Loan, Agent may in its discretion assume that such Bank has made
such Loan available to Agent in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement and Agent may, if it chooses, in reliance upon
such assumption make such Loan available to Borrowers, and such
Bank shall be liable to the Agent for the amount of such advance.

    Section 2.8.  Extension of Maturity Date.

         (a)  Provided that no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Borrowers shall have the
option, to be exercised by giving written notice to the Agent in
the form of Exhibit D hereto at least 90 days prior to the
Maturity Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, to extend the Maturity Date by one (1) year.  The
request by the Borrowers for extension of the Maturity Date shall
constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrowers that
all of the conditions set forth in this Section shall have been
satisfied on the date of such request or shall be satisfied prior
to the then existing Maturity Date.

         (b)  The obligations of the Agent and the Banks to
extend the Maturity Date shall be subject to the satisfaction of
the following conditions precedent on or prior to the Maturity
Date (without regard to such extension request):

              (i)  Investment Grade Rating.  Walden shall have
    obtained an Investment Grade Rating from either or both of
    the Rating Agencies, which continues in full force and
    effect as to any such rating obtained prior to the Maturity
    Date (without regard to such extension).

             (ii)  Payment of Extension Fee.  The Borrowers
    shall pay to the Agent for the pro rata accounts of the
    Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment
    Percentages an extension fee equal to 15/100ths of one
    percent (0.15%) of the Total Commitment, which fee shall,
    when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable under any
    circumstances.

            (iii)  No Default.  On the date the Extension
    Request is given and on the Maturity Date (as determined
    without regard to such extension) there shall exist no
    Default or Event of Default.

            (iv)   Representations and Warranties.  The
    representations and warranties made by the Borrowers or the
    Guarantors in the Loan Documents or otherwise made by or on
    behalf of the Borrowers, the Guarantors or any of the their
    respective Subsidiaries in connection therewith or after the
    date thereof shall have been true and correct in all
    material respects when made and shall also be true and
    correct in all material respects on the Maturity Date (as
    determined without regard to such extension) other than for
    changes in the ordinary course of business permitted by this
    Agreement that have not had any materially adverse affect on
    the business of the Borrowers, the Guarantors or any of
    their respective Subsidiaries.

    Section 3.  REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS.

    Section 3.1.  Stated Maturity.  The Borrowers promise to pay on the
Maturity Date and there shall become absolutely due and payable
on the Maturity Date, all of the Loans outstanding on such date,
together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

    Section 3.2.  Mandatory Prepayments.

         (a)  If at any time the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of the Loans exceeds the Total Commitment or the Borrowing
Base, then the Borrowers shall immediately pay the amount of such
excess to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Banks for
application to the Loans, except that the amount of any Swing
Loans shall be paid solely to the Swing Loan Bank.

         (b)  All of the Borrowers' interest in the gross
proceeds of each and every sale or refinancing of real estate
assets of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries
(whether held directly or indirectly), less all reasonable costs,
expenses and commissions paid to unrelated parties and less any
Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) secured by such asset
to be satisfied as a part of such sale or refinance, shall be
promptly paid by the Borrowers to the Agent for the account of
the Banks as a prepayment of the Loans to the extent of the
outstanding balance of the Loans.

    Section 3.3.  Optional Prepayments.  The Borrowers shall have the
right, at their election, to prepay the outstanding amount of the
Loans, as a whole or in part, at any time without penalty or
premium; provided, that the full or partial prepayment of the
outstanding amount of any LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.3
may be made only on the last day of the Interest Period relating
thereto except as otherwise required pursuant to Section 4.7.  The
Borrowers shall give the Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m., Boston
time, at least five Business Days prior written notice of any
prepayment pursuant to this Section 3.3, in each case specifying the
proposed date of payment of Loans and the principal amount to be
paid.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no prior notice shall be
required for the prepayment of any Swing Loan.

    Section 3.4.  Partial Prepayments.  Each partial prepayment of the
Loans under Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 shall be in an integral multiple of
$100,000, shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest
on the principal prepaid to the date of payment and, after
payment of such interest, shall be applied, in the absence of
instruction by the Borrowers, first to the principal of any
Outstanding Swing Loans, and next to the principal of Base Rate
Loans and then to the principal of LIBOR Rate Loans.

    Section 3.5.  Effect of Prepayments.  Amounts of the Loans prepaid
under Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 prior to the Maturity Date may be reborrowed
as provided in Section 2.

    Section 3.6.     Proceeds from Debt or Equity Offering.  Unless
otherwise approved by the Majority Banks, the Borrowers shall
cause all gross proceeds of each and every Debt Offering and
Equity Offering, less all reasonable costs, fees, expenses,
underwriting commissions, fees and discounts incurred in
connection therewith, to be paid by the Borrowers to the Agent
for the account of the Banks as a prepayment of the Loans within
thirty (30) days of the date of such offering to the extent of
the outstanding balance of the Loans.

    Section 4.  CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

    Section 4.1.  Conversion Options.

         (a)  The Borrowers may elect from time to time to
convert any outstanding Loan to a Loan of another Type and such
Loan shall thereafter bear interest as a Base Rate Loan or a
LIBOR Rate Loan, as applicable; provided that (i) with respect to
any such conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, the
Borrowers shall give the Agent at least three Business Days'
prior written notice of such election, and such conversion shall
only be made on the last day of the Interest Period with respect
to such LIBOR Rate Loan; (ii) with respect to any such conversion
of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrowers shall
give the Agent at least four LIBOR Business Days' prior written
notice of such election and the Interest Period requested for
such Loan, the principal amount of the Loan so converted shall be
in a minimum aggregate amount of $2,000,000 or an integral
multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and, after giving effect
to the making of such Loan, there shall be no more than ten (10)
LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time; and (iii) no Loan
may be converted into a LIBOR Rate Loan when any Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing.  Promptly upon receipt
of any such Conversion Request, the Agent shall notify each of
the Banks thereof.  All or any part of the outstanding Loans of
any Type may be converted as provided herein, provided that no
partial conversion shall result in a Base Rate Loan in an
aggregate principal amount of less than $1,000,000 or a LIBOR
Rate Loan in an aggregate principal amount of less than
$2,000,000 and that the aggregate principal amount of each Loan
shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000.  On the date on
which such conversion is being made, each Bank shall take such
action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of
such Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its LIBOR Lending
Office, as the case may be.  Each Conversion Request relating to
the conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be
irrevocable by the Borrowers.

         (b)  Any Loan may be continued as such Type upon the
expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by
compliance by the Borrowers with the terms of Section 4.1; provided that
no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be
automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of
the Interest Period relating thereto ending during the
continuance of any Default or Event of Default.

         (c)  In the event that the Borrowers do not notify the
Agent of their election hereunder with respect to any Loan, such
Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan at the
end of the applicable Interest Period.

    Section 4.2.  Closing Fee.  The Borrowers agree to pay to BKB
certain fees for services rendered or to be rendered in
connection with the Loan as provided pursuant to the Agreement
Regarding Fees.  All such fees shall be solely for the account of
BKB as provided in the Agreement Regarding Fees.

    Section 4.3.  Agent's Fee.  The Borrowers shall pay to the Agent,
for the Agent's own account, an annual Agent's fee as provided in
the Agreement Regarding Fees. The Agent's fee shall be payable
quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter
for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion
thereof.  The Agent's fee shall also be paid upon the Maturity
Date or earlier termination of the Commitments.  The Agent's fee
for any partial quarter shall be prorated.

    Section 4.4.  Funds for Payments.

         (a)  All payments of principal, interest, facility
fees, Agent's fees, closing fees, and any other amounts due
hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made
to the Agent, for the respective accounts of the Banks and the
Agent, as the case may be, at the Agent's Head Office, not later
than 11:00 a.m. (Boston time) on the day when due, in each case
in immediately available funds.  The Agent is hereby authorized
to charge the account of the Borrowers with BKB, on the dates
when the amount thereof shall become due and payable, with the
amounts of the principal of and interest on the Loans and all
fees, charges, expenses and other amounts owing to the Agent
and/or the Banks (including the Swing Loan Bank) under the Loan
Documents.

         (b)  All payments by the Borrowers hereunder and under
any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or
counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any
taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions,
withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions of any
nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or
any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority
therein unless the Borrowers are compelled by law to make such
deduction or withholding.  If any such obligation is imposed upon
the Borrowers with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder
or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrowers will pay
to the Agent, for the account of the Banks (including the Swing
Loan Bank) or (as the case may be) the Agent, on the date on
which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such
other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall
be necessary to enable the Banks or the Agent to receive the same
net amount which the Banks or the Agent would have received on
such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon the
Borrowers.  The Borrowers will deliver promptly to the Agent
certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other
charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by
the Borrowers hereunder or under such other Loan Document.

    Section 4.5.  Computations.  All computations of interest on the
Loans and of other fees to the extent applicable shall be based
on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed.
Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term
"Interest Period" with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, whenever a
payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents
becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for
such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business
Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension.  The
outstanding amount of the Loans as reflected on the records of
the Agent from time to time shall be considered prima facie
evidence of such amount.

    Section 4.6.  Inability to Determine LIBOR Rate.  In the event
that, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating
to any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Agent shall determine that adequate
and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR
Rate for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith give
notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and
binding on the Borrowers and the Banks) to the Borrowers and the
Banks.  In such event (a) any Loan Request with respect to LIBOR
Rate Loans shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a
request for Base Rate Loans, and (b) each LIBOR Rate Loan will
automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest
Period thereof, become a Base Rate Loan, and the obligations of
the Banks to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the
Agent determines that the circumstances giving rise to such
suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Agent shall so notify
the Borrowers and the Banks.

    Section 4.7.  Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provisions
herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or
directive or the interpretation or application thereof shall make
it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority
having jurisdiction over a Bank or its LIBOR Lending Office shall
assert that it is unlawful, for any Bank to make or maintain
LIBOR Rate Loans, such Bank shall forthwith give notice of such
circumstances to the Agent and the Borrowers and thereupon (a)
the commitment of the Banks to make LIBOR Rate Loans or convert
Loans of another type to LIBOR Rate Loans shall forthwith be
suspended and (b) the LIBOR Rate Loans then outstanding shall be
converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of
each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans or
within such earlier period as may be required by law.

    Section 4.8.  Additional Interest.  If any LIBOR Rate Loan or any
portion thereof is repaid or is converted to a Base Rate Loan for
any reason on a date which is prior to the last day of the
Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrowers
will pay to the Agent upon demand for the account of the Banks in
accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (or to
the Swing Loan Bank with respect to a Swing Loan), in addition to
any amounts of interest otherwise payable hereunder, any amounts
required to compensate the Banks for any losses, costs or
expenses which may reasonably be incurred as a result of such
payment or conversion, including, without limitation, an amount
equal to daily interest for the unexpired portion of such
Interest Period on the LIBOR Rate Loan or portion thereof so
repaid or converted at a per annum rate equal to the excess, if
any, of (a) the interest rate calculated on the basis of the
LIBOR Rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan minus (b) the yield
obtainable by the Agent upon the purchase of debt securities
customarily issued by the Treasury of the United States of
America which have a maturity date most closely approximating the
last day of such Interest Period (it being understood that the
purchase of such securities shall not be required in order for
such amounts to be payable and that a Bank shall not be obligated
or required to have actually obtained funds at the LIBOR Rate or
to have actually reinvested such amount as described above).

    Section 4.9.  Additional Costs, Etc.  Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, if any present or future applicable law,
which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and
regulations thereunder and legally binding interpretations
thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other
regulatory body or official with appropriate jurisdiction charged
with the administration or the interpretation thereof and
requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or
from time to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any
Bank or the Agent by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary
or other authority (whether or not having the force of law),
shall:

         (a)  subject any Bank or the Agent to any tax, levy,
impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature
with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such
Bank's Commitment (including the Swing Loan Commitment) or the
Loans (other than taxes based upon or measured by the income or
profits of such Bank or the Agent), or

         (b)  materially change the basis of taxation (except
for changes in taxes on income or profits) of payments to any
Bank of the principal of or the interest on any Loans or any
other amounts payable to any Bank under this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents, or

         (c)  impose or increase or render applicable any
special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy
or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of
law) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account
of, or loans by, or letters of credit from, or commitments of an
office of any Bank, or

         (d)  impose on any Bank or the Agent any other
conditions or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the
other Loan Documents, the Loans, such Bank's Commitment
(including the Swing Loan Commitment), or any class of loans or
commitments of which any of the Loans or such Bank's Commitment
(including the Swing Loan Commitment) forms a part; and the
result of any of the foregoing is

              (i)  to increase the cost to any Bank of making,
funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the
Loans or such Bank's Commitment (including the Swing Loan
Commitment), or

              (ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest
or other amount payable to such Bank or the Agent hereunder on
account of such Bank's Commitment (including the Swing Loan
Commitment) or any of the Loans, or

              (iii)     to require such Bank or the Agent to
make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable
hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or
other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any
sum receivable or deemed received by such Bank or the Agent from
the Borrowers hereunder,

then, and in each such case, the Borrowers will, within fifteen
(15) days of demand made by such Bank or (as the case may be) the
Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the
occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Bank or the Agent such
additional amounts as such Bank or the Agent shall determine in
good faith to be sufficient to compensate such Bank or the Agent
for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest
or other sum.  Each Bank and the Agent in determining such
amounts may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods,
generally applied by such Bank or the Agent.

    Section 4.10.  Capital Adequacy.  If after the date hereof any Bank
determines that (a) the adoption of or change in any law, rule,
regulation or guideline regarding capital requirements for banks
or bank holding companies or any change in the interpretation or
application thereof by any governmental authority charged with
the administration thereof, or (b) compliance by such Bank or its
parent bank holding company with any guideline, request or
directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy (whether
or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the
return on such Bank's or such holding company's capital as a
consequence of such Bank's commitment to make Loans hereunder to
a level below that which such Bank or holding company could have
achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration such Bank's or such holding company's then existing
policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full
utilization of such entity's capital) by any amount deemed by
such Bank to be material, then such Bank may notify the Borrowers
thereof.  The Borrowers agree to pay to such Bank the amount of
such reduction in the return on capital as and when such
reduction is determined, upon presentation by such Bank of a
statement of the amount setting forth the Bank's calculation
thereof.  In determining such amount, such Bank may use any
reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

    Section 4.11.  Indemnity of Borrowers.  The Borrowers agree to
indemnify each Bank and to hold each Bank harmless from and
against any loss, cost or expense that such Bank may sustain or
incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrowers in payment
of the principal amount of or any interest on any LIBOR Rate
Loans as and when due and payable, including any such loss or
expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Bank to
lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its LIBOR
Rate Loans, or (b) default by the Borrowers in making a borrowing
or conversion after the Borrowers have given (or are deemed to
have given) a Loan Request or a Conversion Request.

    Section 4.12.  Interest on Overdue Amounts; Late Charge.  Overdue
principal and (to the extent permitted by applicable law)
interest on the Loans and all other overdue amounts payable
hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall bear
interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to five
percent (5.00%) above the Base Rate until such amount shall be
paid in full (after as well as before judgment).  In addition,
the Borrowers shall pay a late charge equal to three percent (3%)
of any amount of interest and/or principal payable on the Loans
or any other amounts payable hereunder or under the Loan
Documents, which is not paid within ten days of the date when
due.

    Section 4.13. Certificate.  A certificate setting forth any amounts
payable pursuant to Section 4.8, Section 4.9, Section 4.10,
Section 4.11 or Section 4.12 and a brief explanation of such
amounts which are due, submitted by any Bank
or the Agent to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive in the absence
of manifest error.

    Section 4.14.  Limitation on Interest.  Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement to the contrary, all agreements between the
Borrowers and the Banks and the Agent, whether now existing or
hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited
so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of
the maturity of any of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the
interest contracted for, charged or received by the Banks exceed
the maximum amount permissible under applicable law.  If, from
any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable
to the Banks in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest
payable to the Banks shall be reduced to the maximum amount
permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance the
Banks shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by
applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount
equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction
of the principal balance of the Obligations and to the payment of
interest or, if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid
balance of principal of the Obligations, such excess shall be
refunded to the Borrowers.  All interest paid or agreed to be
paid to the Banks shall, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the
full period until payment in full of the principal of the
Obligations (including the period of any renewal or extension
thereof) so that the interest thereon for such full period shall
not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law.  This
section shall control all agreements between the Borrowers and
the Banks and the Agent.

    Section 5.  SECURITY.

    The Banks have agreed to make the Loans to the Borrowers on
an unsecured basis.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Obligations shall be guaranteed by the Guarantors pursuant to the
Guaranty.

    Section 6.  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

12 C.F.R. Parts 221 and 224.

    Section 6.17.  Environmental Compliance.  The Borrowers have taken
or caused to be taken all commercially reasonable steps to
investigate the past and present conditions and usage of the Real
Estate and the operations conducted thereon and, based upon such
investigation, makes the following representations and
warranties.

         (a)  With respect to the Unencumbered Operating
Properties, and to the best of the Borrowers' knowledge with
respect to any other Real Estate, except as set forth in
Schedule 6.17, none of the Borrowers or their respective
Subsidiaries or any operator of the Real Estate, or any
operations thereon is in violation, or alleged violation, of any
judgment, decree, order, law, license, rule or regulation
pertaining to environmental matters, including without
limitation, those arising under the Resource Conservation and

involves the Unencumbered Operating Properties or other Real
Estate and would have a material adverse effect on the
environment or the business, assets or financial condition of the
Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries.  Although not
a violation of any Environmental Law, Borrowers have disclosed to
Agent that the Unencumbered Operating Properties commonly known
as Preston Greens, Post Oak and Fountaingate/Willow Creek contain
elevated levels of lead in the drinking water as described in
environmental reports previously submitted to Agent.

         (b)  Neither the Borrowers nor any of their respective
Subsidiaries has received notice from any third party including,
without limitation, any federal, state or local governmental
authority, (i) that it has been identified by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") as a potentially
responsible party under CERCLA with respect to a site listed on
the National Priorities List, 40 C.F.R. Part 300 Appendix B
(1986); (ii) that any hazardous waste, as defined by 42 U.S.C.
Section 9601(5), any hazardous substances as defined by 42 U.S.C.

other chemicals or substances regulated by any Environmental Laws
("Hazardous Substances") which it has generated, transported or
disposed of have been found at any site at which a federal, state
or local agency or other third party has conducted or has ordered
that the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries
conduct a remedial investigation, removal or other response
action pursuant to any Environmental Law; or (iii) that it is or
shall be a named party to any claim, action, cause of action,
complaint, or legal or administrative proceeding (in each case,
contingent or otherwise) arising out of any third party's
incurrence of costs, expenses, losses or damages of any kind
whatsoever in connection with the release of Hazardous
Substances.

         (c)  With respect to the Unencumbered Operating
Properties, and to the best of the Borrowers' knowledge, with
respect to any other Real Estate, except as set forth in Schedule
6.17, or in the case of Real Estate acquired after the date
hereof, except as may be disclosed in writing to the Agent upon
the acquisition of the same:  (i) no portion of the Real Estate
has been used for the handling, processing, storage or disposal
of Hazardous Substances except in accordance with applicable
Environmental Laws, and no underground tank or other underground
storage receptacle for Hazardous Substances is located on any
portion of such Real Estate; (ii) in the course of any activities
conducted by the Borrowers or any of their respective
Subsidiaries or the operators of any of their properties, no
Hazardous Substances have been generated or are being used on the
Real Estate of such Person except in the ordinary course of
business and in accordance with applicable Environmental Laws;
(iii) there has been no past or present releasing, spilling,
leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying, discharging,
injecting, escaping, disposing or dumping (a "Release") or
threatened Release of Hazardous Substances on, upon, into or from
such Real Estate, or, to the best of the Borrowers' knowledge,
on, upon, into or from the other properties of the Borrowers or
any of their respective Subsidiaries, which Release would have a
material adverse effect on the value of any of such Real Estate
or adjacent properties or the environment; (iv) to the best of
the Borrowers' knowledge, there have been no Releases on, upon,
from or into any real property in the vicinity of any of such
Real Estate which, through soil or groundwater contamination, may
have come to be located on, and which would have a material
adverse effect on the value of, such Real Estate; and (v) any
Hazardous Substances that have been generated on any of such Real
Estate have been transported off-site only by carriers having an
identification number issued by the EPA or approved by a state or
local environmental regulatory authority having jurisdiction
regarding the transportation of such substance and treated or
disposed of only by treatment or disposal facilities maintaining
valid permits as required under all applicable Environmental
Laws, which transporters and facilities have been and are, to the
best of the Borrowers' knowledge operating in compliance with
such permits and applicable Environmental Laws.  Upon the receipt
by the Agent of any such disclosure, the Agent shall promptly
notify the Banks thereof.

         (d)  Neither the Borrowers, their respective
Subsidiaries nor any Real Estate of such Person is subject to any
applicable Environmental Law requiring the performance of
Hazardous Substances site assessments, or the removal or
remediation of Hazardous Substances, or the giving of notice to
any governmental agency or the recording or delivery to other
Persons of an environmental disclosure document or statement by
virtue of the transactions set forth herein and contemplated
hereby, or as a condition to the effectiveness of any other
transactions contemplated hereby.

    Section 6.18.  Subsidiaries.  Schedule 6.18 sets forth all of the
Subsidiaries of WDOP and Walden.  The form and jurisdiction of
organization of each of the Subsidiaries, and WDOP's and Walden's
ownership interest therein, is set forth in said Schedule 6.18.

    Section 6.19.  Loan Documents and the Guarantors.  All of the
representations and warranties of the Borrowers and the
Guarantors made in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or
any document or instrument delivered to the Agent or the Banks
pursuant to or in connection with any of such Loan Documents are
true and correct in all material respects, and none of the
Borrowers nor the Guarantors has failed to disclose such
information as is necessary to make such representations and
warranties not misleading.

    Section 6.20.  Property.  All of the Borrowers', the Guarantors'
and their respective Subsidiaries' properties are in good repair
and condition, subject to ordinary wear and tear, other than with
respect to deferred maintenance existing as of the date of
acquisition of such property as permitted in this Section 6.20.  The
Borrowers further have completed or caused to be completed an
appropriate investigation of the environmental condition of each
such property as of the later of the date of the Borrowers', the
Guarantors' or such Subsidiaries' purchase thereof or the date
upon which such property was last security for Indebtedness of
such Borrower, such Guarantor or such Subsidiary, including
preparation of a "Phase I" report and, if appropriate, a "Phase
II" report, in each case prepared by a recognized environmental
engineer in accordance with customary standards which discloses
that such property is not in violation of the representations and
covenants set forth in this Agreement, unless such violation has
been disclosed in writing to the Agent and satisfactory
remediation actions are being taken.  There are no unpaid or
outstanding real estate or other taxes or assessments on or
against any property of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any of
their respective Subsidiaries which are payable by such Person
(except only real estate or other taxes or assessments, that are
not yet due and payable).  There are no pending eminent domain
proceedings against any property of Borrowers, the Guarantors or
their respective Subsidiaries or any part thereof, and, to the
knowledge of the Borrowers, no such proceedings are presently
threatened or contemplated by any taking authority which may
individually or in the aggregate have any materially adverse
effect on the business or financial condition of the Borrowers or
the Guarantors.  None of the property of Borrowers, the
Guarantors or their respective Subsidiaries is now damaged or
injured as a result of any fire, explosion, accident, flood or
other casualty in any manner which individually or in the
aggregate would have any materially adverse effect on the
business or financial condition of the Borrowers or the
Guarantors.  The Real Estate owned by Walden, WDOP and their
respective Subsidiaries is set forth on Schedule 6.20 hereto.

    Section 6.21.  Brokers.  None of the Borrowers nor any of their
respective Subsidiaries has engaged or otherwise dealt with any
broker, finder or similar entity in connection with this
Agreement or the Loans contemplated hereunder.

    Section 6.22.  Other Debt.  None of the Borrowers, the General
Partner, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries
is in default in the payment of any other Indebtedness or under
any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement,
financing agreement, indenture or lease to which any of them is a
party.  None of the Borrowers is a party to or bound by any
agreement, instrument or indenture that may require the
subordination in right or time of payment of any of the
Obligations to any other indebtedness or obligation of such
Borrower.  The Borrowers have provided to the Agent copies of all
agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust, financing agreements or
other material agreements binding upon Borrowers, the General
Partner, the Guarantors or their respective properties and
entered into by such Person as of the date of this Agreement with
respect to any Indebtedness of such Person.  Schedule 6.22 hereto
sets forth all of the Indebtedness of the type described in
Section 8.1(g) and (h) of the Borrowers and their respective
Subsidiaries as of the date hereof.

    Section 6.23.  Solvency.  As of the Closing Date and after giving
effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, including all of the Loans made or to be
made hereunder, neither the Borrowers nor any Guarantor is
insolvent on a balance sheet basis such that the sum of such
Person's assets exceeds the sum of such Person's liabilities,
each Borrower and each Guarantor is able to pay its debts as they
become due, and each Borrower and each Guarantor has sufficient
capital to carry on its business.

    Section 6.24.  Partners.  Walden is the sole general partner of
WDOP and owns a 1% partnership interest in WDOP.  Walden
Operating, Inc. is the sole general partner of WROP and owns a 1%
partnership interest in WROP.  WDN Properties, Inc. is a limited
partner of WDOP and WROP and owns an approximately 58%
partnership interest in WDOP and a 77.3784% partnership interest
in WROP.  WROP is a limited partner of WDOP and owns an
approximately 11% partnership interest in WDOP.  Walden owns one
hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of
stock of WDN Properties, Inc. and Walden Operating, Inc.

    Section 6.25.  No Fraudulent Intent.  Neither the execution and
delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents nor
the performance of any actions required hereunder or thereunder
is being undertaken by any Borrower or any Guarantor with or as a
result of any actual intent by any of such Persons to hinder,
delay or defraud any entity to which any of such Persons is now
or will hereafter become indebted.

    Section 6.26.  Transaction in best interests of Borrowers;
Consideration.  The transaction evidenced by this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents is in the best interests of the
Borrowers and the creditors of such Persons.  The direct and
indirect benefits to inure to the Borrowers pursuant to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute substantially
more than "reasonably equivalent value" (as such term is used in
Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code) and "valuable consideration,"
"fair value," and "fair consideration" (as such terms are used in
any applicable state fraudulent conveyance law), in exchange for
the benefits to be provided by the Borrowers pursuant to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and but for the
willingness of the Borrowers to be jointly and severally liable
as co-borrowers for the Loan, Borrowers would be unable to obtain
the financing contemplated hereunder which financing will enable
the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries to have available
financing to conduct and expand their business.

    Section 7.  AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS OF THE BORROWERS.

    The Borrowers covenant and agree that, so long as any Loan
or Note is outstanding or any Bank has any obligation to make any
Loans:

    Section 7.1.  Punctual Payment.  The Borrowers will duly and

their chief executive offices at One Lincoln Center, 5400 LBJ
Freeway, Suite 400, LB45, Dallas County, Dallas, Texas 75240, or

accounting principles and (b) maintain adequate accounts and
reserves for all taxes (including income taxes), depreciation,

Persons) as the Agent may reasonably request.

    Section 7.5.  Notices.

         (a)  Defaults.  The Borrowers will promptly notify the
Agent in writing of the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default.  If any Person shall give any notice or take any other
action in respect of a claimed default (whether or not
constituting an Event of Default) under this Agreement or under
any note, evidence of indebtedness, indenture or other obligation
to which or with respect to which the Borrowers, the General
Partner, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries
is a party or obligor, whether as principal or surety, and such
default would permit the holder of such note or obligation or
other evidence of indebtedness to accelerate the maturity
thereof, which acceleration would have a material adverse effect
on the Borrowers, the General Partner or the Guarantors or the
existence of which claimed default might become an Event of
Default under Section 12.1(g), the Borrowers shall forthwith give
written notice thereof to the Agent and each of the Banks,
describing the notice or action and the nature of the claimed
default.

         (b)  Environmental Events.  The Borrowers will promptly
give notice to the Agent (i) upon the Borrowers or the Guarantors
obtaining knowledge of any potential or known Release, or threat
of Release, of any Hazardous Substances at or from any Real
Estate; (ii) of any violation of any Environmental Law that
either Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective
Subsidiaries reports in writing or is reportable by such Person
in writing (or for which any written report supplemental to any
oral report is made) to any federal, state or local environmental
agency; and (iii) upon becoming aware thereof, of any inquiry,
proceeding, investigation, or other action, including a notice
from any agency of potential environmental liability, of any
federal, state or local environmental agency or board, that in
either case involves any Real Estate or has the potential to
materially affect the assets, liabilities, financial conditions
or operations of such Person.

         (c)  Notice of Litigation and Judgments.  The Borrowers
will give notice to the Agent in writing within 15 days of
becoming aware of any litigation or proceedings threatened in
writing or any pending litigation and proceedings affecting
either Borrower, the General Partner, the Guarantors or any of
their respective Subsidiaries or to which any of such Persons is
or is to become a party involving an uninsured claim against such
Person that could reasonably be expected to have a materially
adverse effect on either Borrower or any Guarantor and stating
the nature and status of such litigation or proceedings.  The
Borrowers will give notice to the Agent, in writing, in form and
detail satisfactory to the Agent and each of the Banks, within
ten days of any judgment not covered by insurance, whether final
or otherwise, against a Borrower, the General Partner, a
Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries in an amount in
excess of $1,000,000.00.

         (d)  Notice of Proposed Sales, Encumbrances, Refinance
or Transfer.  The Borrowers will give notice to the Agent of any
proposed or completed sale, encumbrance, refinance or transfer of
any Real Estate within any fiscal quarter of the Borrowers, such
notice to be submitted together with the Compliance Certificate
provided or required to be provided to the Banks under Section 7.4 with
respect to such fiscal quarter.  The Compliance Certificate shall
with respect to any proposed or completed sale, encumbrance,
refinance or transfer be adjusted in the best good-faith estimate
of the Borrowers to give effect to such sale, encumbrance,
refinance or transfer and demonstrate that no Default or Event of
Default with respect to the covenants referred to therein shall
exist after giving effect to such sale, encumbrance, refinance or
transfer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any
sale, encumbrance, refinance or transfer of any Real Estate
involving an aggregate amount in excess of $25,000,000.00, the
Borrowers shall promptly give notice to the Agent of such
transaction, which notice shall be accompanied by a certification
of the chief financial officer of Walden for itself and as the
sole general partner of WDOP that no Default or Event of Default
shall exist after giving affect to such event.

         (e)  Notification of Banks.  Promptly after receiving
any notice under this Section 7.5, the Agent will forward a copy thereof
to each of the Banks, together with copies of any certificates or
other written information that accompanied such notice.

    Section 7.6.  Existence; Maintenance of Properties.

         (a)  The Borrowers will do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect
its existence as a Delaware limited partnership or Maryland
corporation, as applicable.  The Borrowers will cause each of
their respective Subsidiaries to do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect
its legal existence.  Each Borrower will do or cause to be done
all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force all of
its rights and franchises and those of its Subsidiaries.  Each
Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to,
continue to engage primarily in the businesses now conducted by
it and in related businesses.

         (b)  Irrespective of whether proceeds of the Loans are
available for such purpose, each Borrower (i) will cause all of
its properties and those of its Subsidiaries used or useful in
the conduct of its business or the business of its Subsidiaries
to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working
order (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and supplied with all
necessary equipment, and (ii) will cause to be made all necessary
repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements
thereof in all cases in which the failure so to do would have a
material adverse effect on the condition of its properties or on
the financial condition, assets or operations of such Borrower
and its Subsidiaries.

    Section 7.7.  Insurance.  The Borrowers will, at their expense,
procure and maintain or cause to be procured and maintained
insurance covering the Borrowers, their respective Subsidiaries
and their respective properties in such amounts and against such
risks and casualties as are customary for properties of similar
character and location, due regard being given to the type of
improvements thereon, their construction, location, use and
occupancy.

    Section 7.8.  Taxes.  The Borrowers and their respective
Subsidiaries will duly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and
discharged, before the same shall become overdue, all taxes,
assessments and other governmental charges imposed upon each of
them and upon the Real Estate, sales and activities, or any part
thereof, or upon the income or profits therefrom, as well as all
claims for labor, materials, or supplies that if unpaid might by
law become a lien or charge upon any of its property; provided
that any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim need not be
paid if the validity or amount thereof shall currently be
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and if such
Borrower or such Subsidiary shall have set aside on its books
adequate reserves with respect thereto; and provided, further,
that forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose
any lien that may have attached as security therefor, each
Borrower and each Subsidiary of the Borrowers either (i) will
provide a bond issued by a surety reasonably acceptable to the
Agent and sufficient to stay all such proceedings or (ii) if no
such bond is provided, will pay each such tax, assessment,
charge, levy or claim.  The Borrowers shall certify annually to
the Agent that this Section 7.8 has been satisfied with respect to the
Unencumbered Operating Properties.

    Section 7.9.  Inspection of Properties and Books.  The Borrowers
shall permit the Banks, through the Agent or any representative
designated by the Agent, at the Borrowers' expense to visit and
inspect any of the properties of the Borrowers or any of their
respective Subsidiaries, to examine the books of account of the
Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries (and to make copies
thereof and extracts therefrom) and to discuss the affairs,
finances and accounts of the Borrowers and their respective
Subsidiaries with, and to be advised as to the same by, its
officers, all at such reasonable times and intervals as the Agent
or any Bank may reasonably request.  The Banks shall use good
faith efforts to coordinate such visits and inspections so as to
minimize the interference with and disruption to the Borrowers'
normal business operations.

    Section 7.10.  Compliance with Laws, Contracts, Licenses, and
Permits.  Each Borrower will comply with, and will cause each of
its Subsidiaries to comply in all respects with (i) all
applicable laws and regulations now or hereafter in effect
wherever its business is conducted, including all Environmental
Laws, (ii) the provisions of its corporate charter, partnership
agreement or declaration of trust, as the case may be, and other
charter documents and bylaws, (iii) all agreements and
instruments to which it is a party or by which it or any of its
properties may be bound, (iv) all applicable decrees, orders, and
judgments, and (v) all licenses and permits required by
applicable laws and regulations for the conduct of its business
or the ownership, use or operation of its properties.  If at any
time while any Loan or Note is outstanding or the Banks have any
obligation to make Loans hereunder, any authorization, consent,
approval, permit or license from any officer, agency or
instrumentality of any government shall become necessary or
required in order that the Borrowers may fulfill any of their
obligations hereunder, the Borrowers will immediately take or
cause to be taken all steps necessary to obtain such
authorization, consent, approval, permit or license and furnish
the Agent and the Banks with evidence thereof.

    Section 7.11.  Use of Proceeds.  The Borrowers will use the
proceeds of the Loans solely to provide short-term financing (a)
for the acquisition of fee interests by WDOP in Real Estate which
is utilized principally for multifamily housing (including
reasonable transaction costs related thereto) (provided that no
more than $20,000,000.00 in the aggregate for the term of the
Loans may be used by WDOP for the acquisition of fee interests in
such Real Estate by wholly-owned Subsidiaries of WDOP as provided
in Section 7.16), (b) for working capital purposes of WDOP and Walden,
and (c) for such other purposes as the Majority Banks in their
discretion from time to time may agree to in writing.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the amount of
Loans outstanding at any time which has been advanced for the
purpose described in Section 7.11(b) shall not exceed $25,000,000.00.
Any repayment of a principal portion of the Loans at a time when
any amount of Loans has been advanced for the purpose described
in Section 7.11(b) shall be first allocated for the purposes of this
Section 7.11 to reduce the amount advanced for the purpose described in
Section 7.11(b).

    Section 7.12.  Further Assurances.  The Borrowers will cooperate
with, and will cause each of the Guarantors and their respective
Subsidiaries to cooperate with the Agent and the Banks and
execute such further instruments and documents as the Banks or
the Agent shall reasonably request to carry out to their
satisfaction the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents.

    Section 7.13.  Management; Business Operations. The Borrowers shall
cause all Unencumbered Operating Properties at all times to be
managed by Walden and no change shall occur in such management
without the prior written approval of the Majority Banks.  The
Borrowers and the Guarantors shall operate their respective
businesses as described in the Prospectus and in compliance with
the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Loan
Documents.  Walden shall at all time comply with all requirements
of applicable laws necessary to maintain REIT Status and shall
operate, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to operate, their
respective businesses as described in the Prospectus and in
compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

    Section 7.14.  Unencumbered Operating Properties.

         (a)  The Borrowers shall at all times own Unencumbered
Operating Properties which satisfy all of the following
conditions:

              (i)  the Unencumbered Operating Properties shall
    consist solely of Real Estate which has an aggregate
    occupancy level (on a portfolio basis) of at least ninety
    percent (90%) for the previous four (4) fiscal quarters of
    the Borrowers based on bona fide arms-length tenant leases
    requiring current rental payments; and

              (ii) no more than thirty percent (30%) of the
    Asset Value of the Unencumbered Operating Properties may be
    located in any one city or metropolitan area (it being
    agreed that Dallas and Fort Worth and their respective
    suburbs shall be considered as separate cities for the
    purposes hereof); provided that no more than forty percent
    (40%) of the Asset Value of the Unencumbered Operating
    Properties may be located in Houston, Texas until October,
    1998, and thereafter such Asset Values shall not exceed
    thirty percent (30%) as provided above.

         (b)  The Borrowers shall provide to the Agent and each
of the Banks as of the Closing Date and concurrently with the
delivery of the financial statements described in Section 7.4(a) (i) a
list of the Unencumbered Operating Properties, (ii) the
certification of the chief financial or chief accounting officer
of Walden, for itself and as the sole general partner of WDOP of
the Asset Values and that such properties are in compliance with
Section 7.14(a) and Section 9.1, (iii) operating statements setting forth the
Operating Cash Flow and capital expenditures for each of the
Unencumbered Operating Properties for the previous four (4)
fiscal quarters certified as true and correct by the chief
financial or chief accounting officer of Walden, for itself and
as the sole general partner of WDOP, and (iv) that the
Unencumbered Operating Properties comply with the terms of Section 6.17
and 6.20.  In the event that all or any material portion of a
property within the Unencumbered Operating Properties shall be
damaged or taken by condemnation, then such property shall no
longer be a part of the Unencumbered Operating Properties unless
and until any damage to such Real Estate is repaired or restored,
such Real Estate becomes fully operational and the Agent shall
receive evidence satisfactory to the Agent of the value and
Operating Cash Flow of such Real Estate following such repair or
restoration.

    Section 7.15.  Limiting Agreements.

         (a)  Neither Borrower, any Guarantor nor any of their
respective Subsidiaries shall enter into, any agreement,
instrument or transaction which has or may have the effect of
prohibiting or limiting such Borrower's or any Guarantor's
ability to pledge to Agent the Unencumbered Operating Properties,
Real Estate which is owned by the Borrowers or such Guarantors
which is free and clear of all Liens other than the Liens
permitted in Section 8.2(i), (iii) and (v) or any other assets of the
Borrowers or such Guarantor as security for the Loans.  Borrowers
shall take, and shall cause the Guarantors and their respective
Subsidiaries to take, such actions as are necessary to preserve
the right and ability of Borrowers and the Guarantors to pledge
those Real Estate and other assets as security for the Loans
without any such pledge after the date hereof causing or
permitting the acceleration (after the giving of notice or the
passage of time, or otherwise) of any other Indebtedness of
Borrowers, the Guarantors or any of their respective
Subsidiaries.

         (b)  Borrowers shall, upon demand, provide to the Agent
such evidence as the Agent may reasonably require to evidence
compliance with this Section 7.15, which evidence shall include, without
limitation, copies of any agreements or instruments which would
in any way restrict or limit a Borrower's or any Guarantor's
ability to pledge assets as security for Indebtedness, or which
provide for the occurrence of a default (after the giving of
notice or the passage of time, or otherwise) if assets are
pledged in the future as security for Indebtedness of such
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

    Section 7.16.  Ownership of Real Estate.  Without the prior written
consent of the Majority Banks, which consent may be withheld by
the Majority Banks in their sole discretion, all interests
(whether direct or indirect) of the Borrowers, the General
Partner, the Guarantors or their respective Subsidiaries in
income-producing real estate assets acquired after the Closing
Date shall be owned directly by WDOP.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Walden, WROP and WDOP may acquire income-producing
real estate assets after the Closing Date (a) as provided in
Section 8.11, and (b) in a like-kind exchange of Real Estate owned by
such Person as of the Closing Date.  In addition, WDOP may
subject to the terms of this Agreement acquire through a wholly-owned
Subsidiary of WDOP Real Estate that is encumbered by
Indebtedness that is to be assumed by such Subsidiary in
connection with the acquisition thereof and which acquisition is
financed in part with proceeds of the Loans as provided in
Section 7.11(a).

    Section 7.17.  Distributions of Income to the Borrowers.  Each
Borrower shall cause all of its Subsidiaries to promptly
distribute to such Borrower (but not less frequently than once
each fiscal quarter of such Borrower), whether in the form of
dividends, distributions or otherwise, all profits, proceeds or
other income relating to or arising from its Subsidiaries' use,
operation, financing, refinancing, sale or other disposition of
their respective assets and properties after (a) the payment by
each Subsidiary of its Debt Service and operating expenses for
such quarter and (b) the establishment of reasonable reserves for
the payment of operating expenses not paid on at least a
quarterly basis and capital improvements to be made to such
Subsidiary's assets and properties approved by such Subsidiary in
the ordinary course of business consistent with its past
practices.

    Section 7.18.  More Restrictive Agreements. Should any Borrower or
any Guarantor enter into or modify any agreements or documents
pertaining to any existing or future Indebtedness, Debt Offering
or Equity Offering, which agreements or documents include
covenants (whether affirmative or negative), warranties,
representations, defaults or events of default (or any other
provision which may have the same practical effect as any of the
foregoing) which are individually or in the aggregate more
restrictive against either Borrower, any Guarantor or their
respective Subsidiaries than those set forth herein or in any of
the other Loan Documents or which provide for a guaranty of the
obligations thereunder by a Person that is not liable for the
Obligations, the Borrowers shall promptly notify the Agent and,
if requested by the Majority Banks, the Borrowers, the Agent, and
the Majority Banks shall (and if applicable, the Borrower shall
cause the Guarantors to) promptly amend this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents to include some or all of such more
restrictive provisions or provide for a guaranty of the
Obligations by such Person as determined by the Majority Banks in
their sole discretion.

    Section 8.  CERTAIN NEGATIVE COVENANTS OF THE BORROWERS.

be subordinate at all times to repayment of the Obligations
pursuant to a subordination and standstill agreement in form and
substance satisfactory to the Majority Banks.

    Section 8.2.  Restrictions on Liens, Etc.  The Borrowers will not,

    use of the property affected in the ordinary conduct of the
    business of the Borrowers or their respective Subsidiaries,

    consolidated basis;

         (iv)  liens on Real Estate (other than Real Estate of

back such Real Estate.

    Section 8.6.  Compliance with Environmental Laws.  Each of the
Borrowers will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries
to, do any of the following:  (a) use any of the Real Estate or
any portion thereof as a facility for the handling, processing,
storage or disposal of Hazardous Substances, except for small
quantities of Hazardous Substances used in the ordinary course of
business and in compliance with all applicable Environmental
Laws, (b) cause or permit to be located on any of the Real Estate
any underground tank or other underground storage receptacle for

conduct any activity at any Real Estate or use any Real Estate in
any manner so as to cause a Release of Hazardous Substances on,
upon or into the Real Estate or any surrounding properties or any
threatened Release of Hazardous Substances which might give rise
to liability under CERCLA or any other Environmental Law, or
(e) directly or indirectly transport or arrange for the transport
of any Hazardous Substances (except in compliance with all
Environmental Laws).

    The Borrowers shall:

         (i)  in the event of any change in Environmental Laws
governing the assessment, release or removal of Hazardous
Substances, which change would lead a prudent lender to require
additional testing to avail itself of any statutory insurance or
limited liability, take all action (including, without
limitation, the conducting of engineering tests at the sole
expense of the Borrowers) to confirm that no Hazardous Substances
are or ever were Released or disposed of on the Real Estate; and

         (ii) if any Release or disposal of Hazardous Substances
shall occur or shall have occurred on the Real Estate of the
Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries (including
without limitation any such Release or disposal occurring prior
to the acquisition of such Real Estate by such Person) cause the
prompt containment and removal of such Hazardous Substances and
remediation of such Real Estate in full compliance with all
applicable laws and regulations and to the satisfaction of the
Majority Banks; provided, that the Borrowers shall be deemed to
be in compliance with Environmental Laws for the purpose of this
clause (ii) so long as it or a responsible third party with
sufficient financial resources is taking reasonable action to
remediate or manage any event of noncompliance to the
satisfaction of the Majority Banks and no action shall have been
commenced by any enforcement agency.  The Majority Banks may
engage their own environmental engineer to review the
environmental assessments and the Borrowers' compliance with the
covenants contained herein.

    At any time after an Event of Default shall have occurred
hereunder, or, whether or not an Event of Default shall have
occurred, at any time that the Agent or the Majority Banks shall
have reasonable grounds to believe that a Release or threatened
Release of Hazardous Substances may have occurred, relating to
any Real Estate, or that any of the Real Estate is not in
compliance with the Environmental Laws, the Agent may at its
election (and will at the request of the Majority Banks) obtain
such environmental assessments of such Real Estate prepared by an
environmental engineer as may be necessary or advisable for the
purpose of evaluating or confirming (i) whether any Hazardous
Substances are present in the soil or water at or adjacent to
such Real Estate and (ii) whether the use and operation of such
Real Estate comply with all Environmental Laws.  Environmental
assessments may include detailed visual inspections of such Real
Estate including, without limitation, any and all storage areas,
storage tanks, drains, dry wells and leaching areas, and the
taking of soil samples, as well as such other investigations or
analyses as are necessary or appropriate for a complete
determination of the compliance of such Real Estate and the use
and operation thereof with all applicable Environmental Laws.
All such environmental assessments shall be at the sole cost and
expense of the Borrowers.

    Section 8.7.  Distributions.  The Borrowers shall not make any
Distributions which would cause it to violate any of the
following covenants:

         (a)  Walden shall not pay any Distribution to the
shareholders of Walden if such Distribution is in excess of the
amount which, when added to the amount of all other Distributions
paid in the same fiscal quarter and the preceding three (3)
fiscal quarters, would exceed ninety percent (90%) of its Funds
from Operations for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ending
prior to the quarter in which such Distribution is paid;

         (b)  In the event that an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, WDOP shall make no Distributions
other than Distributions to Walden in an amount equal to the
minimum Distributions required under the Code to maintain the
REIT Status of Walden, as evidenced by a certification of the
principal financial or accounting officer of Walden containing
calculations in reasonable detail satisfactory in form and
substance to Agent; and

         (c)  In the event that an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, Walden shall make no Distributions
other than the minimum Distributions required under the Code to
maintain the REIT Status of Walden, as evidenced by a
certification of the principal financial or accounting officer of
Walden containing calculations in reasonable detail satisfactory
in form and substance to Agent;

         (d)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time when an
Event of Default shall have occurred and the maturity of the
Obligations has been accelerated, at the option of the Majority
Banks, neither Borrower shall make any Distributions whatsoever,
directly or indirectly.

    Section 8.8.  Asset Sales.  Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary
thereof shall sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Real
Estate or any of the Unencumbered Operating Properties in excess
of $25,000,000.00 (except as the result of a condemnation or
casualty and except for the granting of Permitted Liens, as
applicable) unless there shall have been delivered to the Banks a
statement that no Default or Event of Default exists or will
exist and a certification that the Borrowers will be in
compliance with its covenants referred to therein after giving
effect to such sale, transfer or other disposition.

    Section 8.9.  Development Activity.  Neither Borrower nor any
Subsidiary thereof shall engage, directly or indirectly, in the
development of properties to be used principally for multifamily
housing or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the
Majority Banks, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld.  For purposes of this Section 8.9, the term "development"
shall include the new construction of an apartment complex or the
substantial renovation of improvements to real property, but
shall not include the addition of amenities or other related
facilities to existing Real Estate which is already used
principally for multifamily housing.  The Borrowers acknowledge
that the decision of the Majority Banks to grant or withhold such
consent shall be based on such factors as the Majority Banks deem
relevant in their sole discretion, including without limitation,
evidence of sufficient funds both from borrowings and equity to
complete such development and evidence that such Borrower or such
Subsidiary has the resources and expertise necessary to complete
such project.  Nothing herein shall prohibit the Borrowers or any
Subsidiary thereof from entering into an agreement to acquire
Real Estate which has been developed and initially leased by
another Person.

    Section 8.10.  Restriction on Prepayment of Indebtedness.  Neither
Borrower shall prepay the principal amount, in whole or in part,
of any Indebtedness other than the Obligations after the
occurrence of any Event of Default; provided, however, that this
Section 8.11 shall not prohibit the prepayment of Indebtedness which is
financed solely from the proceeds of a new loan which would
otherwise be permitted by the terms of Section 8.1.

    Section 8.11.  Bankruptcy Remote Subsidiaries.  Without the consent
of the Majority Banks, neither Borrower nor any of their
respective Subsidiaries shall create any new single purpose,
special purpose or other so-called bankruptcy remote subsidiaries
(such as a REMIC), as determined by the Agent in its reasonable
discretion; provided, however, that without the consent of the
Majority Banks, WROP may create such a Subsidiary for the purpose
of acquiring a property or properties having an Asset Value of
not more than $15,000,000.00 financed with tax-exempt bonds.

    Section 8.12.  Restrictions on Transfer.  Walden will not, directly

         (t)  any Event of Default as defined in any of the

then, and in any such event, the Agent may, and upon the request
of the Majority Banks shall, by notice in writing to the
Borrowers declare all amounts owing with respect to this
Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to be, and they
shall thereupon forthwith become, immediately due and payable
without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind,
all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers;
provided that in the event of any Event of Default specified in
Section 12.1(h), Section 12.1(i) or Section 12.1(j), all such amounts
shall become immediately due and payable automatically and without any
requirement of notice from any of the Banks or the Agent.  The
Borrowers and any other Person shall be entitled to conclusively
rely on a statement from the Agent that it has the authority to
act for and bind the Banks pursuant to this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

    Section 12.1A.  Limitation of Cure Periods.

         (a)  Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 12.1 to the
contrary, (i) no Event of Default shall exist hereunder upon the
occurrence of any failure described in Section 12.1(a) or Section 12.1(b) in
the event that the Borrowers cure such default within five (5)
days following receipt of written notice of such default,
provided, however, that Borrowers shall not be entitled to
receive more than two (2) notices in the aggregate pursuant to
this clause (i) in any period of 365 days ending on the date of
any such occurrence of default, and provided further that no such
cure period shall apply to any payments due upon the maturity of
the Notes, and (ii) no Event of Default shall exist hereunder
upon the occurrence of any failure described in Section 12.1(e) in the
event that the Borrowers cure such default within thirty (30)
days following receipt of written notice of such default,
provided that the provisions of this clause (ii) shall not
pertain to any default consisting of a failure to comply with
Section 7.4(e), or to any default excluded from any provision of cure of
defaults contained in any other of the Loan Documents.

         (b)  Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (d)
and (e) of Section 12.1, the cure periods provided therein shall not be
allowed and the occurrence of a Default thereunder immediately
shall constitute an Event of Default for all purposes of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents if, within the period of
twelve months immediately preceding the occurrence of such
Default, there shall have occurred two periods of cure or
portions thereof under any one or more than one of said
subsections.

    Section 12.2.  Termination of Commitments.  If any one or more
Events of Default specified in Section 12.1(h), Section 12.1(i) or
Section 12.1(j) shall occur, then immediately and without any action
on the part of the Agent or any Bank any unused portion of the credit
hereunder shall terminate and the Banks shall be relieved of all
obligations to make Loans to the Borrowers.  If any other Event
of Default shall have occurred, the Agent, upon the election of
the Majority Banks, may by notice to the Borrowers terminate the
obligation to make Loans to the Borrowers.  No termination under
this Section 12.2 shall relieve the Borrowers of their obligations to
the Banks arising under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents.

    Section 12.3.  Remedies. In case any one or more of the Events of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not
the Banks shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans
pursuant to Section 12.1, the Agent on behalf of the Banks, may, with
the consent of the Majority Banks but not otherwise, proceed to
protect and enforce their rights and remedies under this
Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents by suit
in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, whether
for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement
contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any
instrument pursuant to which the Obligations are evidenced,
including to the full extent permitted by applicable law the
obtaining of the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if such
amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise,
proceed to enforce the payment thereof or any other legal or
equitable right.  No remedy herein conferred upon the Agent or
the holder of any Note is intended to be exclusive of any other
remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be
in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other
provision of law.  In the event that all or any portion of the
Obligations is collected by or through an attorney-at-law, the
Borrowers shall pay all costs of collection including, but not
limited to, reasonable attorney's fees not to exceed fifteen
percent (15%) of such portion of the Obligations.

    Section 12.4.  Distribution of Proceeds.  In the event that,
following the occurrence or during the continuance of any Event
of Default, any monies are received in connection with the
enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise with
respect to the realization upon any of the assets of the
Borrowers or any other Person liable with respect to the
Obligations, such monies shall be distributed for application as
follows:

         (a)  First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be)
the reimbursement of, the Agent for or in respect of all
reasonable costs, expenses, disbursements and losses which shall
have been incurred or sustained by the Agent in connection with
the collection of such monies by the Agent, for the exercise,
protection or enforcement by the Agent of all or any of the
rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Agent under this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in support of any
provision of adequate indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or
liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the
rights of the Agent to such monies;

         (b)  Second, to all other Obligations in such order or
preference as the Majority Banks shall determine; provided,
however, that (i) Swing Loans shall be repaid first, (ii)
distributions in respect of such other Obligations shall be made
pari passu among Obligations with respect to the Agent's fee
payable pursuant to Section 4.3 and all other Obligations, (iii) in the
event that any Bank shall have wrongfully failed or refused to
make an advance under Section 2.7 and such failure or refusal shall be
continuing, advances made by other Banks during the pendency of
such failure or refusal shall be entitled to be repaid as to
principal and accrued interest in priority to the other
Obligations described in this subsection (b), and (iv)
Obligations owing to the Banks with respect to each type of
Obligation such as interest, principal, fees and expenses (but
excluding Swing Loans), shall be made among the Banks pro rata;
and provided, further that the Majority Banks may in their
discretion make proper allowance to take into account any
Obligations not then due and payable; and

         (c)  Third, the excess, if any, shall be returned to
the Borrowers or to such other Persons as are entitled thereto.

    Section 13.  SETOFF.

    Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral, during the
continuance of any Event of Default, any deposits (general or
specific, time or demand, provisional or final, regardless of
currency, maturity, or the branch of where such deposits are
held) or other sums credited by or due from any of the Banks to
the Borrowers or the Guarantors and any securities or other
property of the Borrowers or the Guarantors in the possession of
such Bank may be applied to or set off against the payment of
Obligations of such Person and any and all other liabilities,
direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become
due, now existing or hereafter arising, of such Person to such
Bank.  Each of the Banks agrees with each other Bank that if such
Bank shall receive from any of the Borrowers or the Guarantors,
whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of setoff, or
otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Note
or Notes held by such Bank (but excluding the Swing Loan Note)
any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments
received by all of the Banks with respect to the Notes held by
all of the Banks, such Bank will make such disposition and
arrangements with the other Banks with respect to such excess,
either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims,
subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Bank receiving
in respect of the Notes held by it its proportionate payment as
contemplated by this Agreement; provided that if all or any part
of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Bank,
such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the
amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without
interest.

    Section 14. THE AGENT.

    Section 14.1.  Authorization.  The Agent is authorized to take such
action on behalf of each of the Banks and to exercise all such
powers as are hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents
and any related documents delegated to the Agent, together with
such powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided that no
duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or
therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent.  The
obligations of Agent hereunder are primarily administrative in
nature, and nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents shall be construed to constitute the Agent
as a trustee for any Bank or to create an agency or fiduciary
relationship.  The Borrowers and any other Person shall be
entitled to conclusively rely on a statement from the Agent that
it has the authority to act for and bind the Banks pursuant to
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

    Section 14.2.  Employees and Agents.  The Agent may exercise its
powers and execute its duties by or through employees or agents
and shall be entitled to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Agent may
utilize the services of such Persons as the Agent may reasonably
determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of any such
Persons shall be paid by the Borrowers.

    Section 14.3.  No Liability.  Neither the Agent nor any of its
shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other
Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent, or employee
thereof, shall be liable to any of the Banks for any waiver,
consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be
taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the
other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or
be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of
judgment whatsoever, except that the Agent or such other Person,
as the case may be, may be liable for losses due to its willful
misconduct or gross negligence.

    Section 14.4.  No Representations.  The Agent shall not be
responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of
this Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any
instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute,
collateral security for the Notes, or for the value of any such
collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or
collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the
Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or
representations made herein or in any of the other Loan Documents
or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by
or on behalf of the Borrowers or the Guarantors or any of their
respective Subsidiaries, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as
to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions,
covenants or agreements herein or in any other of the Loan
Documents.  The Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any
notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by the
Borrowers or the Guarantors or any holder of any of the Notes
shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and
complete.  The Agent has not made nor does it now make any
representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it
assume any liability to the Banks, with respect to the
creditworthiness or financial condition of the Borrowers, their
respective partners, the Guarantors or any of their respective
Subsidiaries.  Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently
and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank, and based
upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Agreement.  Each Bank also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other
Bank, based upon such information and documents as it deems
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis
and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents.

    Section 14.5.  Payments.

         (a)  A payment by the Borrowers or the Guarantors to
the Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for
the account of any Bank shall constitute a payment to such Bank.
The Agent agrees to distribute to each Bank not later than one
Business Day after the Agent's receipt of good funds, determined
in accordance with the Agent's customary practices, such Bank's
pro rata share of payments received by the Agent for the account
of the Banks except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in
any of the other Loan Documents.

         (b)  If in the opinion of the Agent the distribution of
any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the
Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it
in liability, it may refrain from making distribution until its
right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court
of competent jurisdiction.  If a court of competent jurisdiction
shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the
Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution
shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its
proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or
shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as
shall be determined by such court.

         (c)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any Bank
that fails (i) to make available to the Agent its pro rata share
of any Loan or (ii) to comply with the provisions of Section 13 with
respect to making dispositions and arrangements with the other
Banks, where such Bank's share of any payment received, whether
by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its pro rata share of
such payments due and payable to all of the Banks, in each case
as, when and to the full extent required by the provisions of
this Agreement, shall be deemed delinquent (a "Delinquent Bank")
and shall be deemed a Delinquent Bank until such time as such
delinquency is satisfied.  A Delinquent Bank shall be deemed to
have assigned any and all payments due to it from the Borrowers
and the Guarantors, whether on account of outstanding Loans,
interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining nondelinquent Banks
for application to, and reduction of, their respective pro rata
shares of all outstanding Loans.  The Delinquent Bank hereby
authorizes the Agent to distribute such payments to the
nondelinquent Banks in proportion to their respective pro rata
shares of all outstanding Loans.  A Delinquent Bank shall be
deemed to have satisfied in full a delinquency when and if, as a
result of application of the assigned payments to all outstanding
Loans of the nondelinquent Banks or as a result of other payments
by the Delinquent Banks to the nondelinquent Banks, the Banks'
respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans have returned
to those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency and
without giving effect to the nonpayment causing such delinquency.

    Section 14.6.  Holders of Notes.  Subject to the terms of Article
18, the Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the
absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until
it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by
such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee.

    Section 14.7.  Indemnity.  The Banks ratably agree hereby to
indemnify and hold harmless the Agent from and against any and
all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise),
losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for
which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrowers as
required by Section 15), and liabilities of every nature and character
arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or any of
the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or
evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent's actions taken
hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the
same shall be directly caused by the Agent's willful misconduct
or gross negligence.

    Section 14.8.  Agent as Bank.  In its individual capacity, BKB
shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and
privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it,
and as the holder of any of the Notes as it would have were it
not also the Agent.

    Section 14.9.  Resignation.  The Agent may resign at any time by
giving 60 days' prior written notice thereof to the Banks and the
Borrowers.  Upon any such resignation, the Majority Banks shall
have the right to appoint as a successor Agent any Bank or any
other bank whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than
"A" or its equivalent by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or not
less than "A" or its equivalent by Standard & Poor's corporation
and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000.  Unless
a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, such successor Agent shall be reasonably acceptable
to the Borrowers.  If no successor Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Majority Banks and shall have accepted such
appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent's giving of
notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of
the Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be any Bank or
a bank whose debt obligations are rated not less than "A" or its
equivalent by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or not less than
"A" or its equivalent by Standard & Poor's Corporation and which
has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000.  Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor
Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become
vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from
its duties and obligations hereunder as Agent.  After any
retiring Agent's resignation, the provisions of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its
benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while it was acting as Agent.

    Section 14.10.  Duties in the Case of Enforcement.  In case one or
more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and
whether or not acceleration of the Obligations shall have
occurred, the Agent shall, if (a) so requested by the Majority
Banks and (b) the Banks have provided to the Agent such
additional indemnities and assurances against expenses and
liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, proceed to
exercise all or any legal and equitable and other rights or
remedies as it may have.  The Majority Banks may direct the Agent
in writing as to the method and the extent of any such exercise,
the Banks hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Agent
harmless from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions
taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, provided
that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the
extent that the Agent reasonably believes the Agent's compliance
with such direction to be unlawful or commercially unreasonable
in any applicable jurisdiction.

    Section 15.  EXPENSES.

    The Borrowers agree to pay (a) the reasonable costs of
producing and reproducing this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents and the other agreements and instruments mentioned
herein, (b) any taxes (including any interest and penalties in
respect thereto) payable by the Agent or any of the Banks (other
than taxes based upon the Agent's or any Bank's gross or net
income), including any recording, mortgage, documentary or
intangibles taxes in connection with the Loan Documents, or other
taxes payable on or with respect to the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, including any such taxes payable by the Agent
or any of the Banks after the Closing Date (the Borrowers hereby
agreeing to indemnify the Agent and each Bank with respect
thereto), (c) all reasonable internal charges of the Agent
(determined in good faith and in accordance with the Agent's
internal policies applicable generally to its customers) for
commercial finance exams and engineering and environmental
reviews and the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of

preparation, administration or interpretation of the Loan
Documents and other instruments mentioned herein (excluding,
however, the preparation of agreements evidencing participations
granted under Section 18.4), each closing hereunder, and amendments,
modifications, approvals, consents or waivers hereto or
hereunder, (d) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of
the Agent incurred by the Agent in connection with the
preparation, administration or interpretation of the Loan
Documents and other instruments mentioned herein, and the making
of each advance hereunder, (e) all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, which
attorneys may be employees of any Bank or the Agent and the fees
and costs of appraisers, engineers, investment bankers or other
experts retained by any Bank or the Agent) incurred by any Bank
or the Agent in connection with (i) the enforcement of or
preservation of rights under any of the Loan Documents against
the Borrowers, the General Partner or the Guarantors or the
administration thereof after the occurrence of a Default or Event

arising hereunder or otherwise, in any way related to the Agent's
or any of the Bank's relationship with the Borrowers, the General
Partner or the Guarantors, (f) all reasonable fees, expenses and

the syndication of interests in the Loans.  The covenants of this
Section 15 shall survive payment or satisfaction of payment of amounts
owing with respect to the Notes.

    Section 16.  INDEMNIFICATION.

    The Borrowers agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent
and the Banks and each director, officer, employee, agent and
Person who controls the Agent or any Bank from and against any
and all claims, actions and suits, whether groundless or
otherwise, and from and against any and all liabilities, losses,
damages and expenses of every nature and character arising out of
or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby including,
without limitation, (a) any leasing fees and any brokerage,
finders or similar fees asserted against any Person indemnified
under this Section 16 based upon any agreement, arrangement or action
made or taken, or alleged to have been made or taken, by the
Borrowers, the General Partner, the Guarantors or any of their
respective Subsidiaries, (b) any condition of the Real Estate,
(c) any actual or proposed use by the Borrowers of the proceeds
of any of the Loans, (d) any actual or alleged infringement of
any patent, copyright, trademark, service mark or similar right
of the Borrowers, the General Partner, the Guarantors or any of
their respective Subsidiaries, (e) the Borrowers and the
Guarantors entering into or performing this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents, (f) any actual or alleged violation of
any law, ordinance, code, order, rule, regulation, approval,

without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of

connection with any such investigation, litigation or other
proceeding; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be
obligated under this Section 16 to indemnify any Person for liabilities
arising from such Person's own gross negligence or willful
misconduct.  In litigation, or the preparation therefor, the
Banks and the Agent shall be entitled to select a single law firm
as their own counsel and, in addition to the foregoing indemnity,
the Borrowers agree to pay promptly the reasonable fees and
expenses of such counsel.  If, and to the extent that the
obligations of the Borrowers under this Section 16 are unenforceable for
any reason, the Borrowers hereby agree to make the maximum
contribution to the payment in satisfaction of such obligations
which is permissible under applicable law.  The provisions of
this Section 16 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the
termination of the obligations of the Banks hereunder.

    Section 17.  SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC.

    All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties
made herein, in the Notes, in any of the other Loan Documents or
in any documents or other papers delivered by or on behalf of the
Borrowers, the General Partner, the Guarantors or any of their
respective Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or thereto shall be
deemed to have been relied upon by the Banks and the Agent,
notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by
any of them, and shall survive the making by the Banks of any of
the Loans, as herein contemplated, and shall continue in full
force and effect so long as any amount due under this Agreement
or the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents remains
outstanding or any Bank has any obligation to make any Loans.
The indemnification obligations of the Borrowers provided herein
and the other Loan Documents shall survive the full repayment of
amounts due and the termination of the obligations of the Banks
hereunder and thereunder to the extent provided herein and
therein.  All statements contained in any certificate or other
paper delivered to any Bank or the Agent at any time by or on
behalf of the Borrowers, the General Partner, the Guarantors or
any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall
constitute representations and warranties by such Person
hereunder.

    Section 18.  ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION.

    Section 18.1.  Conditions to Assignment by Banks.  Except as
provided herein, each Bank may assign to one or more banks or
other entities all or a portion of its interests, rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of
its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same portion of
the Loans at the time owing to it, and the Notes held by it);
provided that (a) the Agent shall have given its prior written
consent to such assignment, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that such consent
shall not be required for any assignment to another Bank, to a
bank which is under common control with the assigning Bank or to
a wholly-owned Subsidiary of such Bank provided that such
assignee shall remain a wholly-owned Subsidiary of such Bank),
(b) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a
varying, percentage of all the assigning Bank's rights and
obligations under this Agreement, (c) the parties to such
assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for recording
in the Register (as hereinafter defined), a notice of such
assignment, together with any Notes subject to such assignment,
(d) in no event shall any voting, consent or approval rights of a
Bank be assigned to any Person controlling, controlled by or
under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from
influence or control by, the Borrowers, the General Partner or
the Guarantors which rights shall instead be allocated pro rata
among the other remaining Banks, (e) such assignee shall have a
net worth as of the date of such assignment of not less than
$500,000,000, and (f) such assignee shall acquire an interest in
the Loans of not less than $10,000,000.  Upon such execution,
delivery, acceptance and recording, of such notice of assignment,
(i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and all other
Loan Documents executed by the Banks and, to the extent provided
in such assignment, have the rights and obligations of a Bank
hereunder, (ii) the assigning Bank shall, to the extent provided
in such assignment and upon payment to the Agent of the
registration fee referred to in Section 18.2, be released from its
obligations under this Agreement, and (iii) the Agent may
unilaterally amend Schedule 1 to reflect such assignment.  In
connection with each assignment, the assignee shall represent and
warrant to the Agent, the assignor and each other Bank as to
whether such assignee is controlling, controlled by, under common
control with or is not otherwise free from influence or control
by, the Borrowers, the General Partner and the Guarantors.

    Section 18.2.  Register.  The Agent shall maintain a copy of each
assignment delivered to it and a register or similar list (the
"Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Banks and the Commitment Percentages of, and principal amount of
the Loans owing to the Banks from time to time.  The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest
error, and the Borrowers, the Agent and the Banks may treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Bank hereunder
for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrowers and the Banks at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice.  Upon each such recordation, the assigning Bank agrees to
pay to the Agent a registration fee in the sum of $2,000.

    Section 18.3.  New Notes.  Upon its receipt of an assignment
executed by the parties to such assignment, together with each
Note subject to such assignment, the Agent shall (a) record the
information contained therein in the Register, and (b) give
prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Banks (other than
the assigning Bank).  Within five Business Days after receipt of
such notice, the Borrowers, at their own expense, shall execute
and deliver to the Agent, in exchange for each surrendered Note,
a new Note to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to
the amount assumed by such assignee pursuant to such assignment
and, if the assigning Bank has retained some portion of its
obligations hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning
Bank in an amount equal to the amount retained by it hereunder,
and shall cause the Guarantors to deliver to the Agent an
acknowledgment in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent to
the effect that the Guaranty extends to and is applicable to each
new Note.  Such new Notes shall provide that they are
replacements for the surrendered Notes, shall be in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the
surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such
assignment and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of
the assigned Notes.  The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and
returned to the Borrowers.

    Section 18.4.  Participations.  Each Bank may sell participations
to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of
such Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents; provided that (a) any such sale or
participation shall not affect the rights and duties of the
selling Bank hereunder to the Borrowers, (b) such sale and
participation shall not entitle such participant to any rights or
privileges under this Agreement or the Loan Documents (including,
without limitation, the right to approve waivers, amendments or
modifications), (c) such participant shall have no direct rights
against the Borrowers  or the Guarantors except the rights
granted to the Banks pursuant to Section 13, (d) such sale is effected
in accordance with all applicable laws, and (e) such participant
shall not be a Person controlling, controlled by or under common
control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or
control by, the Borrowers, the General Partner or the Guarantors.
Any Bank which sells a participation shall promptly notify the
Agent of such sale and the identity of the purchaser of such
interest.

    Section 18.5.  Pledge by Bank.  Any Bank may at any time pledge all
or any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement
(including all or any portion of its Note) to any of the twelve
Federal Reserve Banks organized under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve
Act, 12 U.S.C. Section 341.  No such pledge or the enforcement thereof
shall release the pledgor Bank from its obligations hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents.

    Section 18.6.  No Assignment by Borrowers.  Neither Borrower shall
assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under any of
the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of
the Banks.

    Section 18.7.  Disclosure.  The Borrowers agree that in addition to
disclosures made in accordance with standard banking practices
any Bank may disclose information obtained by such Bank pursuant
to this Agreement to assignees or participants and potential
assignees or participants hereunder.

regardless of the capacity of the Bank hereunder.

    Section 27.  CONSENTS, AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC.

    Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement
may be given, and any term of this Agreement or of any other
instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may be amended, and
the performance or observance by the Borrowers of any terms of
this Agreement or such other instrument or the continuance of any
Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in
a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively)
with, but only with, the written consent of the Majority Banks.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the following may occur
without the written consent of each Bank:  a change in the rate
of interest on and the term of the Notes; a change in the amount
of the Commitments of the Banks; a forgiveness, reduction or
waiver of the principal of any unpaid Loan or any interest
thereon or fee payable under the Loan Documents; a change in the
amount of any fee payable to a Bank hereunder; the postponement
of any date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on
the Loan; an extension of the Maturity Date (except as provided

to the Banks or the Agent; the release of a Borrower or a
Guarantor except as otherwise provided herein; an amendment of
the definition of Majority Banks or of any requirement for
consent by all of the Banks; any modification to require a Bank
to fund a pro rata share of a request for an advance of the Loan

Percentage; an amendment to this Section 27; an amendment of the
definition of Majority Banks; or an amendment of any provision of
this Agreement or the Loan Documents which requires the approval

Agent's fee payable for the Agent's account and the provisions of
Section 14 may not be amended without the written consent of the Agent.
There shall be no amendment, modification or waiver of any
provision in the Loan Documents with respect to Swing Loans
without the consent of the Swing Loan Bank.  No waiver shall
extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair
any right consequent thereon.  No course of dealing or delay or
omission on the part of the Agent or any Bank in exercising any
right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be
prejudicial thereto.  No notice to or demand upon the Borrowers
shall entitle the Borrowers to other or further notice or demand

fullest extent that each may lawfully so do, the benefit of all
appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, homestead, exemption
and redemption laws which such Person may claim or seek to take
advantage of in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement of any
of the Loan Documents or the exercise by Banks or Agent of any of
their respective remedies under the Loan Documents and, to the
fullest extent that the Borrowers may lawfully so do, such Person
waives any and all right to have the assets of such Person
marshaled upon any exercise of remedies hereunder.  Each of the
Borrowers further agrees that the Banks and Agent shall be
entitled to exercise their respective rights and remedies under
the Loan Documents or at law or in equity in such order as they
may elect.  Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Borrowers
further agrees that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
the Banks and Agent may exercise any of such rights and remedies
without notice to either of the Borrowers except as required by
law or the Loan Documents and agrees that neither the Banks nor
Agent shall be required to proceed against the other of the
Borrowers, any Guarantor or any other Person or to proceed
against or to exhaust any other security held by the Banks or
Agent at any time or to pursue any other remedy in Bank's or
Agent's power or under any of the Loan Documents before
proceeding against a Borrower or its assets under the Loan
Documents.

    Section 33.4.  Subordination.  Each of the Borrowers hereby
expressly waives any right of contribution from or indemnity
against the other, whether at law or in equity, arising from any
payments made by such Person pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement or the Loan Documents, and each of the Borrowers
acknowledges that it has no right whatsoever to proceed against
the other for reimbursement of any such payments.  In connection
with the foregoing, each of the Borrowers expressly waives any
and all rights of subrogation to the Banks or Agent against the
other of the Borrowers, and each of the Borrowers hereby waives
any rights to enforce any remedy which the Banks or Agent may
have against the other of the Borrowers and any rights to
participate in any collateral or any other assets of the other
Borrower.  In addition to and without in any way limiting the
foregoing, each of the Borrowers hereby subordinates any and all
indebtedness it may now or hereafter owe to such other Borrower
to all indebtedness of the Borrowers to the Banks and Agent, and
agrees with the Banks and Agent that neither of the Borrowers
shall claim any offset or other reduction of such Borrower's
obligations hereunder because of any such indebtedness and shall
not take any action to obtain any collateral or any other assets
of the other Borrower.

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have duly executed this
Agreement as a sealed instrument as of the date first set forth
above.

    FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned WALDEN/DREVER OPERATING
PARTNERSHIP, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and WALDEN
RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES, INC., a Maryland corporation, hereby
jointly and severally promise to pay to
______________________________ or order, in accordance with the
terms of that certain Revolving Credit Agreement dated December
15, 1997 (the "Credit Agreement"), as from time to time in
effect, among the undersigned, BankBoston, N.A., for itself and
as Agent, and such other Banks as may be from time to time named
therein, to the extent not sooner paid, on or before the Maturity
Date the principal sum of _______________________________________
_________________________________________________ DOLLARS
($______________), or such amount as may be advanced by the payee
hereof under the Credit Agreement (but excluding Swing Loans made
pursuant to Section 2.4A(a) through (c) of the Credit Agreement) with
daily interest from the date hereof, computed as provided in the
Credit Agreement, on the principal amount hereof from time to
time unpaid, at a rate per annum on each portion of the principal
amount which shall at all times be equal to the rate of interest
applicable to such portion in accordance with the Credit
Agreement, and with interest on overdue principal and, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, on overdue installments of
interest and late charges at the rates provided in the Credit
Agreement.  Interest shall be payable on the dates specified in
the Credit Agreement, except that all accrued interest shall be
paid at the stated or accelerated maturity hereof or upon the
prepayment in full hereof.  Capitalized terms used herein and not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the
Credit Agreement.

    Payments hereunder shall be made to BankBoston, N.A., as
Agent for the payee hereof, 100 Federal Street, Boston,
Massachusetts 02110.

    This Note is one of one or more Notes evidencing borrowings

may be due and payable in whole or in part prior to the maturity
date stated above and is subject to mandatory prepayment in the

    Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, all
agreements between the Borrowers and the Banks and the Agent,
whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or
oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by
reason of acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations
or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged or
received by the Banks exceed the maximum amount permissible under
applicable law.  If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest
would otherwise be payable to the Banks in excess of the maximum
lawful amount, the interest payable to the Banks shall be reduced
to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and if from
any circumstance the Banks shall ever receive anything of value
deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful
amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be
applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the
Obligations and to the payment of interest or, if such excessive
interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the
Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrowers.  All
interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Banks shall, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated,
allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in
full of the principal of the Obligations (including the period of
any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest thereon
for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount
permitted by applicable law.  This paragraph shall control all
agreements between the Borrowers and the Banks and the Agent.

    In case an Event of Default shall occur, the entire
principal amount of this Note may become or be declared due and
payable in the manner and with the effect provided in said Credit
Agreement.

    This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (without
giving effect to the conflict of laws rules of any jurisdiction).

    The undersigned makers and all guarantors and endorsers,
hereby waive presentment, demand, notice, protest, notice of
intention to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced hereby, notice
of acceleration of the indebtedness evidenced hereby and all
other demands and notices in connection with the delivery,

assent to extensions of time of payment or forbearance or other
indulgence without notice.

defined herein are used herein as defined in the Credit
Agreement.

    Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers are
furnishing to you herewith (or have most recently furnished to
you) the financial statements of the Borrowers and their
respective Subsidiaries for the fiscal period ended

accepted accounting principles and present fairly the financial
position of Borrowers and the Subsidiaries covered thereby at the

    This certificate is submitted in compliance with
requirements of Section 7.4(e), Section 7.5(d) and Section 10.10 of the Credit

or disposition of property or other event that occasions the
preparation of this certificate; and the nature of such event and
the Borrowers' estimate of its effects are set forth in
reasonable detail in an attachment hereto.  The undersigned
officer is the chief financial or chief accounting officer of
Walden, for Walden and the sole general partner of WDOP.

    The undersigned officers have caused the provisions of the
Credit Agreement to be reviewed and have no knowledge of any
Default or Event of Default. (Note: If the signers do have
knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, the form of
certificate should be revised to specify the Default or Event of
Default, the nature thereof and the actions taken, being taken or
proposed to be taken by the Borrowers with respect thereto.)

    The Borrowers are providing the information set forth in the
schedule attached hereto to demonstrate compliance as of the date
hereof with the covenants described therein.
