maintained by the payee located in the United States of America.



This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Operating Partnership (herein

principal amount of the Notes of any series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of
all Notes of such series, to waive compliance by the Operating Partnership with certain provisions
of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such
consent or waiver by the holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and
upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Notes issued upon the registration of transfer
hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver
is made upon this Note.



No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter
or impair the obligation of the Operating Partnership, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay
the principal of and interest on this Note, at the time, place and rate, and in the coin or

place where the principal of and interest on this Note are payable, duly endorsed, or accompanied

multiples thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth
therein, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of authorized
denominations as requested by the Holders surrendering the same.



No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the
Operating Partnership may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in connection therewith, other than in certain cases provided in the
Indenture.

overdue, and neither the Operating Partnership, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.



The Indenture contains provisions whereby (i) the Operating Partnership may be discharged from its
obligations with respect to the Notes (subject to certain exceptions) or (ii) the Operating
Partnership may be released from its obligations under specified covenants and agreements in the
Indenture, in each case if the Operating Partnership irrevocably deposits with the Trustee money or
Government Obligations sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on all Securities,
and satisfies certain other conditions, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.



THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.



Capitalized terms used in this Note which are not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned
to them in the Indenture.

under the Indenture by the manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefits under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

party, any payment made by the Operating Partnership to a Holder that is at any time determined to
be a Preferential Payment (as defined below), then such amount paid to the undersigned shall be
held in trust for the benefit of Holder and shall forthwith be paid such Holder to be credited and
applied upon the indebtedness, whether matured or unmatured. Any such payment is herein referred to
as a “Preferential Payment” to the extent the Operating Partnership makes any payment to Holder in
connection with the Note, and any or all of such payment is subsequently invalidated, declared to
be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid or paid over to a trustee,
receiver or any other entity, whether under any bankruptcy act or otherwise.



To the extent that any of the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph shall not be
enforceable, the undersigned agrees that until such time as the indebtedness has been paid and
performed in full and the period of time has expired during which any payment made by the Operating
Partnership or the

undersigned to a Holder may be determined to be a Preferential Payment, Guarantor’s Conditional
Rights to the extent not validly waived shall be subordinate to Holders’ right to full payment and
performance of the indebtedness and the undersigned shall not enforce any of Guarantor’s
Conditional Rights until such time as the indebtedness has been paid and performed in full and the
period of time has expired during which any payment made by the Operating Partnership or the
undersigned to Holders may be determined to be a Preferential Payment.



The obligations of the undersigned to the Holders of the Notes and to the Trustee pursuant to this
Parent Guarantee and the Indenture are expressly set forth in Article 14 of the Indenture and
reference is hereby made to the Indenture for the precise terms of this Parent Guarantee and all of
the other provisions of the Indenture to which this Parent Guarantee relates.



Capitalized terms used in this Parent Guarantee which are not defined herein shall have the

jointly and severally with the Parent Guarantor pursuant to the Parent Guarantee and any other
Subsidiary Guarantors under their respective Subsidiary Guarantees, that its obligations hereunder
shall be as principal and not merely as surety, and shall be absolute and unconditional, and shall
not be affected, modified or impaired by the following: (a) the failure to give notice to the
Guarantors of the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Indenture; (b) the waiver, surrender,
compromise, settlement, release or termination of the payment, performance or observance by the
Operating Partnership or the Guarantors of any or all of the obligations, covenants or agreements

Guarantors from the performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in
the Indenture; (i) to the
extent permitted by law, the release or discharge by operation of law of
the Operating Partnership from the performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or
agreement contained in the Indenture; (j) the default or failure of the Operating Partnership or
the Trustee fully to perform any of its obligations set forth in the Indenture or the Notes; (k)
the invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of the Indenture or the Notes or any part of any

B-1









 







insolvency or bankruptcy of the Operating Partnership, any right to require a proceeding first
against the Operating Partnership, protest or notice with respect to such Notice or the
indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Subsidiary
Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in
such Note and in this Subsidiary Guarantee. No reference herein to such Indenture and no provision
of this Subsidiary Guarantee or of such Indenture shall alter or impair the guarantee of the
undersigned, which is absolute and unconditional, of the full and prompt payment of the principal
of and premium, if any, and interest on the Note.



THIS SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.



The validity and enforceability of this Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be affected by the fact that
it is not affixed to any particular Note.



An Event of Default under the Indenture or the Notes shall constitute an event of default under
this Subsidiary Guarantee, and shall entitle the Holders of Notes to accelerate the obligations of
the undersigned hereunder in the same manner and to the same extent as the obligations of the
Operating Partnership.



Notwithstanding any other provision of this Subsidiary Guarantee to the contrary, the undersigned
hereby waives any claims or other rights which it may now have or hereafter acquire against the
Operating Partnership that arise from the existence or performance of its obligations under this
Subsidiary Guarantee (all such claims and rights are referred to as “Guarantor’s Conditional
Rights”), including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration,
contribution, or indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy against the
Operating Partnership, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under
contract, statute or common law, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, including without
limitation, the right to take or receive from the Operating Partnership, directly or indirectly, in
cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such
claim or other rights. The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees not to exercise any rights which may
be acquired by way of contribution under this Subsidiary Guarantee or any other agreement, by any
payment made hereunder or otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive
from any other guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any
other manner, payment or security on account of such contribution rights. If, notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions, any amount shall be paid to the undersigned on account of any such
Guarantor’s Conditional Rights and either (i) such amount is paid to such undersigned party at any
time when the indebtedness shall not have been paid or performed in full, or (ii) regardless of
when such amount is paid to such undersigned party, any payment made by Operating Partnership to a
Holder that is at any time determined to be a Preferential Payment (as defined below), then such
amount paid to any of the undersigned shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders and
shall forthwith be paid such Holder to be credited and applied upon the indebtedness, whether
matured or unmatured. Any such payment is herein referred to as a “Preferential Payment” to the
extent the Operating Partnership makes any payment to the Holders in connection with the Note, and
any or all of such payment is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside or required to be repaid or paid over to a trustee, receiver or any other entity, whether
under any bankruptcy act or otherwise.



To the extent that any of the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph shall not be
enforceable, each of the undersigned agrees that until such time as the indebtedness has been paid
and performed in full and the period of time has expired during which any payment made by the
Operating Partnership or the undersigned to a Holder may be determined to be a Preferential
Payment, Guarantor’s Conditional Rights to the extent not validly waived shall be subordinate to
Holders’ right to full payment and performance of the indebtedness and each of the undersigned
shall not enforce any of its respective






B-2









 







portion of the Guarantors’ Conditional Rights until such time as the indebtedness has been paid and
performed in full and the period of time has expired during which any payment made by the Operating
Partnership or the undersigned to Holders may be determined to be a Preferential Payment.



The undersigned’s liability shall be that amount from time to time equal to the aggregate liability
of the undersigned hereunder, but shall be limited to the lesser of (A) the aggregate amount of the
obligation as stated in the second sentence of Section 1401 of the Indenture, and (B) the amount,
if any, which would not have (i) rendered the undersigned “insolvent” (as such term is defined in
Section 101(29) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code and in Section 271 of the Debtor and Creditor Law of
the State of New York, as each is in effect at the date of the Indenture) or (ii) left the
undersigned with unreasonably small capital at the time its Guarantee was entered into, after
giving effect to the incurrence of existing Debt (as defined in the Indenture) immediately prior to
such time, provided that, it shall be a presumption in any lawsuit or other proceeding in which the
undersigned is a party that the amount guaranteed is the amount set forth in (A) above unless a
creditor, or representative of creditors of the undersigned or a trustee in bankruptcy of the
undersigned, as debtor in possession, otherwise proves in such a lawsuit that the aggregate
liability of the undersigned is limited to the amount set forth in (B). In making any determination
as to the solvency or sufficiency of capital of the undersigned in accordance with the previous
sentence, the right of the undersigned to contribution from other Guarantors, to subrogation and
any other rights the undersigned may have, contractual or otherwise, shall be taken into account.



The obligations of the undersigned to the Holders of the Notes and to the Trustee pursuant to the
Subsidiary Guarantee and the Indenture are expressly set forth in Article 14 of the Indenture and
reference is hereby made to the Indenture for the precise terms of the Subsidiary Guarantee and all
of the other provisions of the Indenture to which this Subsidiary Guarantee relates.



Capitalized terms in this Subsidiary Guarantee which are not defined herein shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the Indenture.



IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Subsidiary Guarantee to be duly executed.
