 THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP OF CYRUSONE LP, dated as of January 24, 2013, is entered into by and among CYRUSONE GP, a Maryland statutory trust, (the “Initial

company (“Investments Holdco”), as a Limited Partner, Data Centers South Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“South Holdings”), as a Limited Partner, and any additional partner that is admitted from
time to time to the Partnership, and 
 WHEREAS, a Certificate of Limited Partnership of the Partnership was accepted for record
by the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland on July 31, 2012 (the “Formation Date”): 

WHEREAS, the Initial General Partner and the Special Limited Partner entered into an original Agreement of Limited Partnership of the
Partnership effective as of July 31, 2012 and an Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership on September 27, 2012, and the General Partner, Data Center Investments Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Data
Investments”), Data Centers South Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Data South”), and the Special Limited Partner entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership on November 20, 2012, which was
amended by the Amendment One and Amendment Two thereto, among the Initial General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, Investments Holdco, South Holdings, Data Investments and Data South (as amended, the “Current Amended and Restated
Partnership Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Initial General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, the Original Limited
Partners (as defined herein) and CBI now desire to amend and restate the Current Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement to read in its entirety as set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE 1 
 DEFINED TERMS 
 The following definitions shall be for all purposes, unless
otherwise clearly indicated to the contrary, applied to the terms used in this Agreement: 
 “Act” means the
Maryland Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, Title 10 of the Corporations and Associations Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland, as it may be amended from time to time, and any successor to such statute. 

“Actions” has the meaning set forth in Section 7.7 hereof. 

“Additional Funds” has the meaning set forth in Section 4.3.A hereof. 

“Additional Limited Partner” means a Person who is admitted to the Partnership as a Limited Partner pursuant to the Act
and Section 12.2 hereof, who is shown as such on the books and records of the Partnership, and who has not ceased to be a Limited Partner pursuant to the Act and this Agreement. 

“Adjusted Available Cash” means, as of any date of determination, the sum of Available Cash and REIT Available Cash.


  
 1 








 “Adjusted Capital Account Deficit” means, with respect to any Partner, the
deficit balance, if any, in such Partner’s Capital Account as of the end of the relevant Partnership Year, after giving effect to the following adjustments: 

(i) decrease such deficit by any amounts that such Partner is obligated to restore pursuant to this Agreement or by
operation of law upon liquidation of such Partner’s Partnership Interest or that such Partner is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentence of each of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5); and

 (ii) increase such deficit by the items described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4),
(5) and (6). 
 The foregoing definition of “Adjusted Capital Account Deficit” is intended to comply with the provisions of
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. 
 “Adjustment
Factor” means 1.0; provided, however, that in the event that: 
 (i) the Special Limited
Partner (a) declares or pays a dividend on its outstanding REIT Shares wholly or partly in REIT Shares or makes a distribution to all holders of its outstanding REIT Shares wholly or partly in REIT Shares, (b) splits or subdivides its
outstanding REIT Shares or (c) effects a reverse stock split or otherwise combines its outstanding REIT Shares into a smaller number of REIT Shares, the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted by multiplying the Adjustment Factor previously in
effect by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of REIT Shares issued and outstanding on the record date for such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination (assuming for such purposes that
such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination has occurred as of such time) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the actual number of REIT Shares (determined without the above assumption) issued and
outstanding on the record date for such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination; 
 (ii) the Special Limited Partner distributes any rights, options or warrants to all holders of its REIT Shares to subscribe for or to purchase or to otherwise acquire REIT Shares, or other securities or
rights convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for REIT Shares (other than REIT Shares issuable pursuant to a Qualified DRIP), at a price per share less than the Value of a REIT Share on the record date for such distribution (each a
“Distributed Right”), then, as of the distribution date of such Distributed Rights or, if later, the time such Distributed Rights become exercisable, the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted by multiplying the Adjustment Factor
previously in effect by a fraction (a) the numerator of which shall be the number of REIT Shares issued and outstanding on the record date (or, if later, the date such Distributed Rights become exercisable) plus the maximum number of REIT
Shares purchasable under such Distributed Rights and (b) the denominator of which shall be the number of REIT Shares issued and outstanding on the record date (or, if later, the date such Distributed Rights become exercisable) plus a fraction
(1) the numerator of which is the maximum number of REIT Shares purchasable under such Distributed Rights, multiplied by the minimum purchase price per REIT Share under such Distributed Rights and (2) the denominator of which is the Value
of a REIT Share as of the record date (or, if later, the date such Distributed Rights become exercisable); provided, however, that, if any such Distributed Rights expire or become no longer exercisable, then the Adjustment Factor shall
be adjusted, effective retroactive to the date of distribution (or, if later, the time the Distributed Rights become exercisable) of the Distributed Rights, to reflect a reduced maximum number of REIT Shares or any change in the minimum purchase
price for the purposes of the above fraction; and 
 (iii) the Special Limited Partner shall, by dividend or
otherwise, distribute to all holders of its REIT Shares evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including securities, but excluding any dividend or distribution referred to in subsection (i) or (ii) above), which evidences of indebtedness
or assets relate to assets not received by the General Partner and/or any Special 

  
 2 








 
Limited Partner pursuant to a pro rata distribution by the Partnership, then the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted to equal the amount determined by multiplying the Adjustment Factor in effect
immediately prior to the close of business as of the record date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (a) the numerator of which shall be such Value of a REIT Share on such record date
and (b) the denominator of which shall be the Value of a REIT Share as of such record date less the then fair market value (as determined by the General Partner, whose determination shall be conclusive) of the portion of the evidences of
indebtedness or assets so distributed applicable to one REIT Share. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments to the Adjustment Factor
will be made for any class or series of Partnership Interests to the extent that the Partnership makes or effects any correlative distribution or payment to all of the Partners holding Partnership Interests of such class or series, or effects any
correlative split or reverse split in respect of the Partnership Interests of such class or series. Any adjustments to the Adjustment Factor shall become effective immediately after such event, retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.
For illustrative purposes, examples of adjustments to the Adjustment Factor are set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto. 

“Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under
common control with such Person. For the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any Person means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and
policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise, and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing. 

“Affiliated REIT” means the Special Limited Partner and any Affiliate of the Special Limited Partner that has elected to
be taxed as a REIT under the Code. 
 “Agreement” means this Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement

 “Applicable
Percentage” has the meaning set forth in Section 15.1B hereof. 
 “Appraisal” means, with respect
to any assets, the written opinion of an independent third party experienced in the valuation of similar assets, selected by the General Partner. Such opinion may be in the form of an opinion by such independent third party that the value for such
property or asset as set by the General Partner is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Partnership. 

“Assignee” means a Person to whom a Partnership Interest has been Transferred but who has not become a Substituted
Limited Partner, and who has the rights set forth in Section 11.5 hereof.

 (1) the Partnership’s Net Income or Net Loss (as the case may be) for such period, 

(2) Depreciation and all other noncash charges to the extent deducted in determining Net Income or Net Loss for such
period, 
 (3) the amount of any reduction in reserves of the Partnership established by the General Partner
(including, without limitation, reductions resulting because the General Partner determines such amounts are no longer necessary), 
 (4) the excess, if any, of the net cash proceeds from the sale, exchange, disposition, financing or refinancing of Partnership property for such period over the gain (or loss, as the case may be)
recognized from such sale, exchange, disposition, financing or refinancing during such period, and 

  
 3 








 (5) all other cash received (including amounts previously accrued as Net

 Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Available Cash shall not include (a) any cash received or reductions in reserves, or take into account any disbursements made, or reserves established, after dissolution and the commencement of the liquidation and winding up of the Partnership

Regulations promulgated under Section 704 of the Code, and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations. The General Partner may modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts are maintained in order to comply
with such Regulations, provided that the General Partner determines that such modification is not reasonably likely to have a material effect on the amounts distributable to any Partner without such Person’s consent. The General Partner also
may (i) make any adjustments to maintain equality between the Capital Accounts of the Partners and the amount of Partnership capital reflected on the Partnership’s balance sheet, as computed for book purposes, in accordance with
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(q), and (ii) make any appropriate modifications in the event that unanticipated events might otherwise cause this Agreement not to comply with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) or

hereof, “Transfer” does not include (a) any Redemption of Partnership Common Units by the Partnership, or acquisition of Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner, pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof or (b) any

(b) as to any other Partnership Interest, a twelve-month period ending on the day before the first (1st) anniversary of a Qualifying Party’s first becoming a Holder of such Partnership Interest; provided, however, that

(10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Valuation Date (except that the Market Price for the trading day immediately preceding the date of exercise of a stock option under any Stock Option Plans shall be substituted for such

 CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

part of this Agreement. The General Partner shall from time to time update the Register as necessary to accurately reflect the information therein, including as a result of any sales, exchanges or other Transfers, or any redemptions, issuances or
similar events involving Partnership Units. Any reference in this Agreement to the Register shall be deemed a reference to the Register as in effect from time to time. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the General Partner may take any action
authorized hereunder in respect of the Register without any need to obtain the consent of any other Partner. No action of any Limited Partner shall be required to amend or update the Register. Except as required by law, no Limited Partner shall be

 Section
4.2 Issuances of Additional Partnership Interests . Subject to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation: 
 A. General. The General Partner is hereby authorized to cause the Partnership to issue additional Partnership Interests, in the form of Partnership Units, for any Partnership purpose, at any time
or from time to time, to the Partners (including the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner) or to other Persons, and to admit such Persons as Additional Limited Partners, for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as shall be
established by the General Partner, all without the approval of any Limited Partner or any other Person.

Partnership Units, or other securities issued by the Partnership, (ii) for less than fair market value, (iii) for no consideration, (iv) in connection with any merger of any other Person into the Partnership, or (v) upon the
contribution of property or assets to the Partnership. Any additional Partnership Interests may be issued in one or more classes, or one or more series of any of such classes, with such designations, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting
powers, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption (including, without limitation, rights that may be senior or otherwise entitled to preference over existing Partnership Interests) as shall
be determined by the General Partner, without the approval of any Limited Partner or any other Person, and set forth in a written document thereafter attached to and made an exhibit to this Agreement, which exhibit shall be an amendment to this
Agreement and shall be incorporated herein by this reference (each, a “Partnership Unit Designation”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the General Partner shall have authority to specify the allocations of items of
Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and credit to each such class or series of Partnership Interests. Except to the extent specifically set forth in any Partnership Unit Designation, a Partnership Interest of any class or series other than a
Partnership Common Unit shall not entitle the holder thereof to vote on, or consent to, any matter. Upon the issuance of any additional Partnership Interest, the General Partner shall amend the Register and the books and records of the Partnership
as appropriate to reflect such issuance. 
 B. Issuances to the General Partner or Special Limited Partner. No additional
Partnership Units shall be issued to the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner unless (i) the additional Partnership Units are issued to all Partners holding Partnership Common Units in proportion to their respective Percentage
Interests in the Partnership Common Units, (ii) (a) the additional Partnership Units are (x) Partnership Common Units issued in connection with an issuance of REIT Shares, or (y) Partnership Equivalent Units (other than
Partnership Common Units) issued in connection with an issuance of Preferred Shares, New Securities or other interests in the Special Limited Partner (other than REIT Shares), and (b) the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner (as the
case may be) contributes to the Partnership the cash proceeds or other consideration received in connection with the issuance of such REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, New Securities or other interests in the Special Limited Partner, (iii) the
additional Partnership Units are issued upon the conversion, redemption or exchange of Debt, Partnership Units or other securities issued by the Partnership, or (iv) the additional Partnership Units are issued pursuant to Section 4.3.B,
Section 4.3.E, Section 4.4, Section 4.5 or Section 4.9. 
 C. No Preemptive Rights. Except as
expressly provided in this Agreement or in any Partnership Unit Designation, no Person, including, without limitation, any Partner or Assignee, shall have any preemptive, preferential, participation or similar right or rights to subscribe for or
acquire any Partnership Interest. 
 Section 4.3 Additional Funds and Capital Contributions. 

A. General. The General Partner may, at any time and from time to time, determine that the Partnership requires additional funds
(“Additional Funds”) for the acquisition or development of additional Properties, for the redemption of Partnership Units or for such other purposes as the General Partner may determine. Additional Funds may be obtained by the
Partnership, at the election of the General Partner, in any manner provided in, and in accordance with, the terms of this Section 4.3 without the approval of any Limited Partner or any other Person. 

B. Additional Capital Contributions. The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may obtain any Additional Funds by
accepting Capital Contributions from any Partners or other Persons. In connection with any such Capital Contribution (of cash or property), the General Partner is hereby authorized to cause the Partnership from time to time to issue additional
Partnership Units (as set forth in Section 4.2 above) in consideration therefor and the Percentage Interests of the General Partner, the Limited Partners shall be adjusted to reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Units.

 C. Loans by Third Parties. The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may obtain any Additional Funds by
causing the Partnership to incur Debt to any Person (other than, except as contemplated in, Section 4.3.D the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner) upon such terms as the General Partner determines appropriate, including making such
Debt convertible, redeemable or exchangeable for Partnership Units; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not incur any such Debt if any Partner would be personally liable for the repayment of such Debt (unless such Partner otherwise
agrees). 

  
 21 









 D. General Partner and Special Limited Partner Loans. The General Partner, on behalf
of the Partnership, may obtain any Additional Funds by causing the Partnership to incur Debt with the General Partner and/or the Special Limited Partner (each, a “General Partner Loan”) if (i) such Debt is, to the extent
permitted by law, on substantially the same terms and conditions (including interest rate, repayment schedule, and conversion, redemption, repurchase and exchange rights) as Funding Debt incurred by the General Partner or the Special Limited
Partner, as applicable, the net proceeds of which are loaned to the Partnership to provide such Additional Funds, or (ii) such Debt is on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Partnership than would be available to the Partnership from
any third party; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not incur any such Debt if any Limited Partner would be personally liable for the repayment of such Debt (unless such Partner otherwise agrees). 

E. Issuance of Securities by the Special Limited Partner. The Special Limited Partner shall not issue any additional REIT Shares,
Preferred Shares or New Securities unless the Special Limited Partner contributes the cash proceeds or other consideration received from the issuance of such additional REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities (as the case may be) and from
the exercise of the rights contained in any such additional New Securities to the Partnership in exchange for (x) in the case of an issuance of REIT Shares, Partnership Common Units, or (y) in the case of an issuance of Preferred Shares or
New Securities, Partnership Equivalent Units; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Limited Partner may issue REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities (a) pursuant to Section 4.4 or
Section 15.1.B hereof, (b) pursuant to a dividend or distribution (including any stock split) of REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities to all of the holders of REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities (as the case may be),
(c) upon a conversion, redemption or exchange of Preferred Shares, (d) upon a conversion, redemption, exchange or exercise of New Securities, or (e) in connection with an acquisition of Partnership Units or a property or other asset
to be owned, directly or indirectly, by the Special Limited Partner. In the event of any issuance of additional REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities by the Special Limited Partner, and the contribution to the Partnership, by the Special
Limited Partner, of the cash proceeds or other consideration received from such issuance, the Partnership shall pay the Special Limited Partner’s expenses associated with such issuance, including any underwriting discounts or commissions. In
the event that the Special Limited Partner issues any additional REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities and contributes the cash proceeds or other consideration received from the issuance thereof to the Partnership, the Partnership is
authorized to issue a number of Partnership Common Units or Partnership Equivalent Units to the Special Limited Partner equal to the number of REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities so issued, divided by the Adjustment Factor then in
effect, in accordance with this Section 4.3.E without any further act, approval or vote of any Partner or any other Persons. 
 Section 4.4 Stock Option Plans. 
 A. Options Granted to Persons other
than Partnership Employees. If at any time or from time to time, in connection with any Stock Option Plan, an option to purchase REIT Shares granted to a Person other than a Partnership Employee is duly exercised: 

(1) The Special Limited Partner, shall, as soon as practicable after such exercise, make a Capital Contribution to the
Partnership in an amount equal to the exercise price paid to the Special Limited Partner by such exercising party in connection with the exercise of such stock option. 

(2) Notwithstanding the amount of the Capital Contribution actually made pursuant to Section 4.4.A(1) hereof, the
Special Limited Partner shall be deemed to have contributed to the Partnership as a Capital Contribution an amount equal to the Value of a REIT Share as of the date of exercise multiplied by the number of REIT Shares then being issued in
connection with the exercise of such stock option. In exchange for such Capital Contribution, the Partnership shall issue a number of Partnership Common Units to the Special Limited Partner equal to the quotient of (a) the number of REIT Shares
issued in connection with the exercise of such stock option, divided by (b) the Adjustment Factor then in effect. 

  
 22 









 B. Options Granted to Partnership Employees. If at any time or from time to time, in
connection with any Stock Option Plan, an option to purchase REIT Shares granted to a Partnership Employee is duly exercised: 
 (1) The Special Limited Partner shall sell to the Partnership, and the Partnership shall purchase from the Special Limited Partner, the number of REIT Shares as to which such stock option is being
exercised. The purchase price per REIT Share for such sale of REIT Shares to the Partnership shall be the Value of a REIT Share as of the date of exercise of such stock option. 

(2) The Partnership shall sell to the Optionee (or if the Optionee is an employee of a Partnership Subsidiary, the
Partnership shall sell to such Partnership Subsidiary, which in turn shall sell to the Optionee), for a cash price per share equal to the Value of a REIT Share at the time of the exercise, the number of REIT Shares equal to (a) the exercise
price paid to the Special Limited Partner by the exercising party in connection with the exercise of such stock option divided by (b) the Value of a REIT Share at the time of such exercise. 

(3) The Partnership shall transfer to the Optionee (or if the Optionee is an employee of a Partnership Subsidiary, the
Partnership shall transfer to such Partnership Subsidiary, which in turn shall transfer to the Optionee) at no additional cost, as additional compensation, the number of REIT Shares equal to the number of REIT Shares described in
Section 4.4.B(1) hereof less the number of REIT Shares described in Section 4.4.B(2) hereof. 

(4) The Special Limited Partner shall, as soon as practicable after such exercise, make a Capital Contribution to the
Partnership of an amount equal to all proceeds received (from whatever source, but excluding any payment in respect of payroll taxes or other withholdings) by the Special Limited Partner in connection with the exercise of such stock option. In
exchange for such Capital Contribution, the Partnership shall issue a number of Partnership Common Units to the Special Limited Partner equal to the quotient of (a) the number of REIT Shares issued in connection with the exercise of such stock
option, divided by (b) the Adjustment Factor then in effect. 
 C. Restricted Stock Granted to Partnership
Employees. If at any time or from time to time, in connection with any Equity Plan (other than a stock option plan), any REIT Shares are issued to a Partnership Employee (including any REIT Shares that are subject to forfeiture in the event such
Partnership Employee terminates his employment by the Partnership or a Partnership Subsidiary) in consideration for services performed for the Partnership or a Partnership Subsidiary: 

(1) The Special Limited Partner shall issue such number of REIT Shares as are to be issued to the Partnership Employee in
accordance with the Equity Plan; 
 (2) The following events will be deemed to have occurred: (a) the
Special Limited Partner shall be deemed to have sold such shares to the Partnership (or if the Partnership Employee is an employee or other service provider of a Partnership Subsidiary, to such Partnership Subsidiary) for a purchase price equal to
the Value of such shares, (b) the Partnership (or such Partnership Subsidiary) shall be deemed to have delivered the shares to the Partnership Employee, (c) the Special Limited Partner shall be deemed to have contributed the purchase price
to the Partnership as a Capital Contribution, and (d) in the case where the Partnership Employee is an employee of a Partnership Subsidiary, the Partnership shall be deemed to have contributed such amount to the capital of the Partnership
Subsidiary; and 
 (3) The Partnership shall issue to the Special Limited Partner a number of Partnership Common
Units equal to the number of newly issued REIT Shares divided by the Adjustment Factor then in effect in consideration for a deemed Capital Contribution in an amount equal to (x) the number of newly issued Partnership Common Units, multiplied
by (y) a fraction the numerator of which is the Value of a REIT Share, and the denominator of which is the Adjustment Factor then in effect. 

  
 23 









 D. Restricted Stock Granted to Persons other than Partnership Employees. If at any
time or from time to time, in connection with any Equity Plan (other than a stock option plan), any REIT shares are issued to a Person other than a Partnership Employee in consideration for services performed for the Special Limited Partner, the
General Partner, the Partnership or a Partnership Subsidiary: 
 (1) The Special Limited Partner shall issue such
number of REIT Shares as are to be issued to such Person in accordance with the Equity Plan; and 
 (2) The
Special Limited Partner shall be deemed to have contributed the Value of such REIT Shares to the Partnership as a Capital Contribution, and the Partnership shall issue to the Special Limited Partner a number of newly issued Partnership Common Units
equal to the number of newly issued REIT Shares divided by the Adjustment Factor then in effect. 
 E. Future Stock Incentive
Plans. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or applied to preclude or restrain the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner from adopting, modifying or terminating stock incentive plans for the benefit of employees, directors or
other business associates of the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, the Partnership or any of their Affiliates. The Partners acknowledge and agree that, in the event that any such plan is adopted, modified or terminated by the General
Partner or the Special Limited Partner, amendments to this Section 4.4 may become necessary or advisable and that any approval or Consent to any such amendments requested by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner shall be deemed
granted. 
 F. Issuance of Partnership Common Units. The Partnership is expressly authorized to issue Partnership Common
Units in the numbers specified in this Section 4.4 without any further act, approval or vote of any Partner or any other Persons. 
 Section 4.5 Dividend Reinvestment Plan, Stock Incentive Plan or Other Plan. Except as may otherwise be provided in this Article 4, all amounts received by the Special Limited Partner in
respect of any dividend reinvestment plan, stock incentive or other stock or subscription plan or agreement, either (a) shall be utilized by the Special Limited Partner to effect open market purchases of REIT Shares, or (b) if the Special
Limited Partner elects instead to issue new REIT Shares with respect to such amounts, shall be contributed by the Special Limited Partner to the Partnership in exchange for additional Partnership Common Units. Upon such contribution, the Partnership
will issue to the Special Limited Partner a number of Partnership Common Units equal to the number of newly issued REIT Shares divided by the Adjustment Factor then in effect. 

Section 4.6 No Interest; No Return. No Partner shall be entitled to interest on its Capital Contribution or on such Partner’s
Capital Account. Except as provided herein or by law, no Partner shall have any right to demand or receive the return of its Capital Contribution from the Partnership. 
 Section 4.7 Conversion or Redemption of Preferred Shares; Redemption of REIT Shares. 
 A. Conversion of Preferred Shares. If, at any time, any Preferred Shares are converted into REIT Shares, in whole or in part, then an equal number of Partnership Equivalent Units held by the
Special Limited Partner that correspond to the class or series of Preferred Shares so converted shall automatically be converted into a number of Partnership Common Units equal to the quotient of (i) the number of REIT Shares issued upon such
conversion divided by (ii) the Adjustment Factor then in effect. 
 B. Redemption of Preferred Shares.
If, at any time, any Preferred Shares are redeemed, repurchased or otherwise acquired (whether by exercise of a put or call, automatically or by means of another arrangement) by the Special Limited Partner for cash, then, immediately prior to such
redemption of Preferred Shares, the Partnership shall redeem an equal number of Partnership Equivalent Units held by the Special Limited Partner that correspond to the class or series of Preferred Shares so redeemed, repurchased or acquired upon the
same terms and for the same price per Partnership Equivalent Unit, as such Preferred Shares are redeemed, repurchased or acquired. 

  
 24 









 C. Redemption, Repurchase or Forfeiture of REIT Shares. If, at any time, any REIT
Shares are redeemed, repurchased or otherwise acquired (whether by exercise of a put or call, upon forfeiture of any award granted under any Equity Plan, automatically or by means of another arrangement) by the Special Limited Partner, then,
immediately prior to such redemption, repurchase or acquisition of REIT Shares, the Partnership shall redeem a number of Partnership Common Units held by the Special Limited Partner equal to the quotient of (i) the number of REIT Shares so
redeemed, repurchased or acquired, divided by (ii) the Adjustment Factor then in effect, such redemption, repurchase or acquisition to be upon the same terms and for the same price per Partnership Common Unit (after giving effect
to application of the Adjustment Factor) as such REIT Shares are redeemed, repurchased or acquired. 
 Section 4.8 Other
Contribution Provisions. In the event that any Partner is admitted to the Partnership and is given a Capital Account in exchange for services rendered to the Partnership, such transaction shall be treated by the Partnership and the affected
Partner as if the Partnership had compensated such Partner in cash and such Partner had contributed the cash to the capital of the Partnership. In addition, with the consent of the General Partner, one or more Partners (including the Special Limited
Partner) may enter into contribution agreements with the Partnership which have the effect of providing a guarantee of certain obligations of the Partnership. 
 Section 4.9 Excluded Properties. The Special Limited Partner shall contribute each Excluded Property (or, if applicable, the net proceeds (after payment of all transfer taxes and other transaction
costs) received by the Special Limited Partner from the sale, transfer or other disposition of an Excluded Property to a Person who is not a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner) to the Partnership upon the
earlier of (i) such time as it is commercially practicable to contribute such property to the Partnership without adverse tax or other economic consequence to the Special Limited Partner and (ii) any sale, transfer or other disposition of
an Excluded Property to a Person who is not a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner. Upon any such contribution of an Excluded Property or the proceeds therefrom, the Special Limited Partner shall receive in
exchange for such contribution, notwithstanding the actual value of such Excluded Property or the amount of such proceeds (as the case may be), the Specified Partnership Units applicable to such Excluded Property. The Partnership is expressly
authorized to issue the Specified Partnership Units in the numbers specified in this Section 4.9 without any further act, approval or vote of any Partner or any other Persons. 

ARTICLE 5 

DISTRIBUTIONS 

Section 5.1 Requirement and Characterization of Distributions. Subject to the terms of any Partnership Unit Designation that
provides for a class or series of Partnership Preferred Units with a preference with respect to the payment of distributions, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to distribute quarterly all, or such portion as the General Partner may
determine, of the Available Cash generated by the Partnership during such quarter to the Holders of Partnership Common Units in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests of Partnership Common Units on such Partnership Record Date.
Distributions payable with respect to any Partnership Units that were not outstanding during the entire quarterly period in respect of which any distribution is made (other than any Partnership Units issued to the Special Limited Partner in
connection with the issuance of REIT Shares or Capital Shares by the Special Limited Partner) shall be prorated based on the portion of the period that such Partnership Units were outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the General Partner, in
its sole and absolute discretion, may cause the Partnership to distribute Available Cash to the Holders on a more or less frequent basis than quarterly. The General Partner shall make reasonable efforts to cause the Partnership to distribute
sufficient amounts to enable the Special Limited Partner, for so long as the Special Limited Partner has determined to qualify as a REIT, to pay stockholder dividends that will (a) satisfy the REIT Requirements and (b) eliminate any U.S.
federal income or excise tax liability of the Special Limited Partner. 

  
 25 









 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Excluded Property (or the proceeds
therefrom) has not been contributed to the Partnership pursuant to Section 4.9, the distributions provided for above shall be calculated, to the extent possible, based on Adjusted Available Cash as if each Excluded Property had been contributed
to the Partnership in exchange for Partnership Common Units pursuant to Section 4.9; provided, however, that in the event any Excluded Property (or the proceeds therefrom) has not been contributed to the Partnership pursuant to
Section 4.9, any distributions to be made with respect to the Special Limited Partner’s Partnership Units shall in the aggregate be reduced to the extent of any REIT Available Cash. 

Section 5.2 Distributions in Kind. No Holder may demand to receive property other than cash as provided in this Agreement. The
General Partner may cause the Partnership to make a distribution in kind of Partnership assets to the Holders, and such assets shall be distributed in such a fashion as to ensure that the fair market value is distributed and allocated in accordance
with Articles 5, 6 and 10 hereof. 
 Section 5.3 Amounts Withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any
provisions of any state or local tax law and Section 10.4 hereof with respect to any allocation, payment or distribution to any Holder shall be treated as amounts paid or distributed to such Holder pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof for all
purposes under this Agreement. 
 Section 5.4 Distributions upon Liquidation. Notwithstanding the other provisions of
this Article 5, upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the assets of the Partnership shall be distributed to the Holders in accordance with Section 13.2 hereof. 
 Section 5.5 Distributions to Reflect Additional Partnership Units. In the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Units pursuant to the provisions of Article 4 hereof, subject
to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation, the General Partner is hereby authorized to make such revisions to this Article 5 and to Article 6 as it determines are necessary or
desirable to reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Units, including, without limitation, making preferential distributions to certain classes of Partnership Units. 

Section 5.6 Restricted Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither the
Partnership nor the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, shall make a distribution to any Holder if such distribution would violate the Act or other applicable law. 
 ARTICLE 6 
 ALLOCATIONS 

Section 6.1 Timing and Amount of Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss. Net Income and Net Loss of the Partnership shall be
determined and allocated with respect to each Partnership Year as of the end of each such year. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 6, and subject to Section 11.6.C hereof, an allocation to a Holder of a share of Net Income or Net
Loss shall be treated as an allocation of the same share of each item of income, gain, loss or deduction that is taken into account in computing Net Income or Net Loss. 
 Section 6.2 General Allocations. 
 A. In General. Subject to
Section 11.6.C hereof, Net Income and Net Loss shall be allocated to each of the Holders as follows: 
 (i)
Net Income will be allocated to Holders of Partnership Preferred Units in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Partnership Unit Designation applicable to such Partnership Preferred Units; 

(ii) remaining Net Income will be allocated to the Holders of Partnership Common Units in accordance with their respective
Percentage Interests at the end of each Partnership Year; 

  
 26 









 (iii) subject to the terms of any Partnership Unit Designation, Net Loss
will be allocated to the Holders of Partnership Common Units in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests at the end of each Partnership Year; and 
 (iv) for purposes of this Section 6.2.A, the Percentage Interests of the Holders of Partnership Common Units shall be calculated based on a denominator equal to the aggregate Partnership Common Units
outstanding as of the date of determination. 
 Section 6.3 Additional Allocation Provisions. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Article 6: 
 A. Special Allocations Regarding Partnership Preferred Units. If any
Partnership Preferred Units are redeemed pursuant to Section 4.7.B hereof (treating a full liquidation of the General Partner’s Partnership Interest or of such Special Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest for purposes of this
Section 6.3.A as including a redemption of any then outstanding Partnership Preferred Units pursuant to Section 4.7.B hereof), for the Partnership Year that includes such redemption (and, if necessary, for subsequent Partnership Years)
(a) gross income and gain (in such relative proportions as the General Partner shall determine) shall be allocated to the holder(s) of such Partnership Preferred Units to the extent that the Redemption Amounts paid or payable with respect to
the Partnership Preferred Units so redeemed (or treated as redeemed) exceeds the aggregate Capital Account Balances (net of liabilities assumed or taken subject to by the Partnership) per Partnership Preferred Unit allocable to the Partnership
Preferred Units so redeemed (or treated as redeemed) and (b) deductions and losses (in such relative proportions as the General Partner shall determine) shall be allocated to the holder(s) of such Partnership Preferred Units to the extent that
the aggregate Capital Account Balances (net of liabilities assumed or taken subject to by the Partnership) per Partnership Preferred Unit allocable to the Partnership Preferred Units so redeemed (or treated as redeemed) exceeds the Redemption Amount
paid or payable with respect to the Partnership Preferred Units so redeemed (or treated as redeemed). 
 B.
Regulatory Allocations. 
 (i) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in
Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2 hereof, or any other provision of this Article 6, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership Year, each Holder shall be
specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Holder’s share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain, as determined under Regulations
Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Holder pursuant thereto. The items to be allocated shall be determined in accordance with
Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3.B(i) is intended to qualify as a “minimum gain chargeback” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently
therewith. 
 (ii) Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations
Section 1.704-2(i)(4) or in Section 6.3.B(i) hereof, if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Partnership Year, each Holder who has a share of the Partner Minimum Gain
attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount
equal to such Holder’s respective share of the net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous
sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Holder pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2).
This Section 6.3.B(ii) is intended to qualify as a “chargeback of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. 

  
 27 









 (iii) Nonrecourse Deductions and Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Any
Nonrecourse Deductions for any Partnership Year shall be specially allocated to the Holders in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any Partnership Year shall be specially allocated to the
Holder(s) who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). 

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

(v) Gross Income Allocation. In the event that any Holder has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any
Partnership Year that is in excess of the sum of (1) the amount (if any) that such Holder is obligated to restore to the Partnership upon complete liquidation of such Holder’s Partnership Interest (including, the Holder’s interest in
outstanding Partnership Preferred Units and other Partnership Units) and (2) the amount that such Holder is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5),
each such Holder shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of such excess to eliminate such deficit as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3.B(v) shall be made if and
only to the extent that such Holder would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided in this Article 6 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3.B(v) and Section 6.3.B(iv) hereof
were not in the Agreement. 
 (vi) Limitation on Allocation of Net Loss. To the extent that any allocation
of Net Loss would cause or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as to any Holder, such allocation of Net Loss shall be reallocated (x) first, among the other Holders of Partnership Common Units in accordance with their respective
Percentage Interests, and (y) thereafter, among the Holders of other Partnership Units, as determined by the General Partner, subject to the limitations of this Section 6.3.B(vi). 

(vii) Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent that an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership
asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital
Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Holder of Partnership Common Units in complete liquidation of its interest in the Partnership, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment
increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Holders of Partnership Common Units in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests in the event
that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Holder(s) to whom such distribution was made in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies. 

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

  
 28 









 
Holders of Partnership Common Units so that to the extent possible without violating the requirements giving rise to the Regulatory Allocations, the net amount of such allocations of other items
and the Regulatory Allocations to each Holder of a Partnership Common Unit shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Holder if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. 

C. Special Allocations Upon Liquidation. Notwithstanding any provision in this Article 6 to the contrary, in the event that
the Partnership disposes of all or substantially all of its assets in a transaction that will lead to a liquidation of the Partnership pursuant to Article 13 hereof, then any Net Income or Net Loss realized in connection with such transaction
and thereafter (and, if necessary, constituent items of income, gain, loss and deduction) shall be specially allocated for such Partnership Year (and to the extent permitted by Section 761(c) of the Code, for the immediately preceding
Partnership Year) among the Holders as required so as to cause liquidating distributions pursuant to Section 13.2.A(4) hereof to be made in the same amounts and proportions as would have resulted had such distributions instead been made
pursuant to Article 5 hereof. 
 D. Allocation of Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities. For purposes of determining a
Holder’s proportional share of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Partnership within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), each Holder’s respective interest in Partnership profits shall be equal to such
Holder’s Percentage Interest with respect to Partnership Common Units. 
 E. Special Allocation of Certain Employee
Compensation Deductions. To the extent the Partnership is entitled to an item of loss or deduction with respect to any employee compensation funded by CBI or any of its Affiliates (including any payments made pursuant to employee incentive plans
of the Special Limited Partner), such item shall be allocated only to Controlled Entities of CBI. 
 Section 6.4 Tax
Allocations. 
 A. In General. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.4, for income tax purposes under
the Code and the Regulations each Partnership item of income, gain, loss and deduction (collectively, “Tax Items”) shall be allocated among the Holders in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” income, gain,
loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Sections 6.2 and 6.3 hereof. 
 B. Section 704(c) Allocations.
Notwithstanding Section 6.4.A hereof, Tax Items with respect to Property that is contributed to the Partnership with a Gross Asset Value that varies from its basis in the hands of the contributing Partner immediately preceding the date of
contribution shall be allocated among the Holders for income tax purposes pursuant to Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(c) so as to take into account such variation. The Partnership shall account for such variation under any method
approved under Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations as chosen by the General Partner. In the event that the Gross Asset Value of any partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to subsection (b) of the definition of “Gross
Asset Value” (provided in Article 1 hereof), subsequent allocations of Tax Items with respect to such asset shall take account of the variation, if any, between the adjusted basis of such asset and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner
as under Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations and using the method chosen by the General Partner. 

ARTICLE 7 

MANAGEMENT AND OPERATIONS OF BUSINESS 
 Section 7.1 Management. 
 A. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, including any Partnership Unit Designation, all management powers over the business and affairs of the Partnership are and shall be exclusively vested in the General Partner, and no Limited Partner shall have any right to participate in
or exercise control or management power over the business and affairs of the Partnership. No General Partner may be removed by the Partners, with or without cause, except with the consent of the General Partner. In addition to the powers now or
hereafter granted a general partner of a limited partnership under applicable law or that are granted to the 

  
 29 









 
General Partner under any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner, subject to the other provisions hereof, including Section 7.3 and the terms of any Partnership Unit
Designation, shall have full and exclusive power and authority, without the consent of any Limited Partner, to conduct or authorize the conduct of the business of the Partnership, to exercise or direct the exercise of all powers of the Partnership
and the General Partner under the Act and this Agreement and to effectuate the purposes of the Partnership, including, without limitation, to cause the Partnership to enter into agreements or engage in transactions with affiliates of the Partnership
or the General Partner, issue additional Partnership Interests, make distributions, sell, pledge, lease, mortgage or otherwise dispose of its assets, form and conduct all or any portion of its business and affairs through subsidiaries or joint
ventures of any form, incur or guarantee debt for any purpose and obtain and maintain casualty, liability and other insurance on the Properties and liability insurance for the Indemnitees hereunder. 

B. Except as provided in Section 7.3 hereof and subject to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a
Partnership Unit Designation, the General Partner is authorized to execute and deliver any affidavit, agreement, certificate, consent, instrument, notice, power of attorney, waiver or other writing or document in the name and on behalf of the
Partnership and to otherwise exercise any power of the General Partner under this Agreement and the Act without any further act, approval or vote of the Partners or any other Persons and, in the absence of any specific trust action on the part of
the General Partner to the contrary, the taking of any action or the execution of any such document or writing by an officer or trustee of the General Partner, in the name and on behalf of the General Partner, in its capacity as the general partner
of the Partnership, shall conclusively evidence (1) the approval thereof by the General Partner, in its capacity as the general partner of the Partnership, (2) the General Partner’s determination that such action, document or writing
is necessary or desirable to conduct the business and affairs of the Partnership, exercise the powers of the Partnership under the Act and this Agreement or effectuate the purposes of the Partnership, or any other determination by the General
Partner required by this Agreement in connection with the taking of such action or execution of such document or writing, and (3) the authority of such trustee or officer with respect thereto. 

C. The determination as to any of the following matters, made by or at the direction of the General Partner consistent with the Act and
this Agreement, shall be final and conclusive and shall be binding upon the Partnership and every Limited Partner: the amount of assets at any time available for distribution or the redemption of Common Units or Preferred Units; the amount and
timing of any distribution; any determination to redeem Tendered Units; the amount, purpose, time of creation, increase or decrease, alteration or cancellation of any reserves or charges and the propriety thereof (whether or not any obligation or
liability for which such reserves or charges shall have been created shall have been paid or discharged); the fair value, or any sale, bid or asked price to be applied in determining the fair value, of any asset owned or held by the Partnership; any
matter relating to the acquisition, holding and disposition of any assets by the Partnership; or any other matter relating to the business and affairs of the Partnership or required or permitted by applicable law, this Agreement or otherwise to be
determined by the General Partner. 
 D. At all times from and after the date hereof, the General Partner may cause the
Partnership to establish and maintain working capital and other reserves in such amounts as the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems appropriate and reasonable from time to time. 

E. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Act, any action of the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership or
any decision of the General Partner to refrain from acting on behalf of the Partnership, undertaken in the belief that such action or omission is necessary or advisable in order (i) to protect the ability of the Special Limited Partner to
continue to qualify as a REIT, (ii) for the Special Limited Partner otherwise to satisfy the REIT Requirements, (iii) for the Special Limited Partner to avoid incurring any taxes under Code Section 857 or Code Section 4981, or
(iv) for any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner to continue to qualify as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)), is expressly authorized under this Agreement and is
deemed approved by all of the Limited Partners. 
 Section 7.2 Certificate of Limited Partnership. To the extent that
such action is determined by the General Partner to be reasonable and necessary or appropriate, the General Partner shall file amendments to and restatements of the Certificate and do all the things to maintain the Partnership as a limited
partnership (or a partnership in which the limited partners have limited liability) under the laws of the State of Maryland and each other state, the District of Columbia or any other jurisdiction, in which the Partnership may elect to do business
or 

  
 30 









 
own property. Subject to the terms of Section 8.5.A hereof, the General Partner shall not be required, before or after filing, to deliver or mail a copy of the Certificate or any amendment
thereto to any Limited Partner. The General Partner shall use all reasonable efforts to cause to be filed such other certificates or documents as may be reasonable and necessary or appropriate for the formation, continuation, qualification and
operation of a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the limited partners have limited liability to the extent provided by applicable law) in the State of Maryland and any other state, or the District of Columbia or other jurisdiction, in
which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property. 
 Section 7.3 Restrictions on General Partner’s
Authority.

provided in this Agreement; 
 (3) performing any act that would subject a Limited Partner to liability, except
as provided herein or under the Act; 
 (4) entering into any contract, mortgage, loan or other agreement that
expressly prohibits or restricts (a) the Special Limited Partner or the Partnership from performing its specific obligations under Section 15.1 hereof or (b) a Limited Partner from exercising its rights under Section 15.1 hereof
to effect a Redemption, except, in either case, with the written consent of such Limited Partner affected by the prohibition or restriction. 
 B. The General Partner shall not, without the Consent of the Partners, undertake on behalf of the Partnership, or enter into any transaction that would have the effect of, any of the following actions:

 (1) except as provided in Section 7.3.C hereof, amend, modify or terminate this Agreement;

 (2) except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, or in connection with a Termination Transaction effected
in accordance with Section 11.7, Transfer any portion of the Partnership Interest of the General Partner or admit into the Partnership any additional or successor General Partner;

 (7) a sale, lease, exchange or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership not in the ordinary course of business, whether in a single transaction or a series of related
transactions, other than in connection with a Termination Transaction effected in accordance with Section 11.7; 

  
 31 









 provided, however, with respect to items B(1), B(2), B(3), B(6) and B(7), for
so long as CBI, together with its Controlled Entities, holds at least 20% of the outstanding Partnership Common Units held by all Partners, the Consent of CBI shall also be required. 

C. Notwithstanding Section 7.3.B hereof but subject to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a
Partnership Unit Designation and Section 7.3.D, the General Partner shall have the power, without the Consent of the Partners or the consent or approval of any Limited Partner, to amend this Agreement as may be required to facilitate or
implement any of the following purposes: 
 (1) to add to the obligations of the General Partner or surrender any

 D. Notwithstanding Sections 7.3.B, 7.3.C and Article 14 hereof, this Agreement
shall not be amended, and no action may be taken by the General Partner, without the consent of each Partner, if any, adversely affected thereby, if such amendment or action would (i) convert a Limited Partner into a general partner of the
Partnership (except as a result of the Limited Partner becoming the General Partner pursuant to Section 12.1 or 13.1.A of this Agreement), (ii) modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner, (iii) adversely alter the rights of any
Partner to receive the distributions to which such Partner is entitled pursuant to Article 5 or Section 13.2.A(4) hereof, or alter the allocations specified in Article 6 hereof (except, in any case, as permitted pursuant to
Sections 4.2, 5.5 and 7.3.C hereof), (iv) alter or modify in a manner that adversely affects any Partner the Redemption rights, Cash Amount or REIT Shares Amount as set forth in Section 15.1 hereof, or amend or modify any related

Partner adversely affected shall not be required for any amendment or action that affects all Partners holding the same class or series of Partnership Units on a uniform or pro rata basis, if approved by a Majority in Interest of the Partners of
such class or series. Except as provided in Section 8.9.E, no amendment to Section 8.9 of this Agreement, and no amendment to this Agreement that is inconsistent with the provisions of Section 8.9, shall be made without the prior
written consent of CBI. Further, no amendment may alter the restrictions on the General Partner’s authority set forth elsewhere in this Section 7.3 without the consent specified therein. Any such amendment or action consented to by any
Partner shall be effective as to that Partner, notwithstanding the absence of such consent by any other Partner. 
 E.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, for so long as CBI or any of its Controlled Entities owns any Partnership Interest, Section 8.8 of this Agreement shall not be amended or waived without the prior written consent
of CBI, nor shall this Agreement be modified in any manner that would have the effect of eliminating the consent rights of this Section 7.3E. 
 Section 7.4 Reimbursement of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner. 
 A. The General Partner shall not be compensated for its services as general partner of the Partnership except as provided in this Agreement (including the provisions of Articles 5 and 6 hereof
regarding distributions, payments and allocations to which it may be entitled in its capacity as the General Partner). 
 B.
Subject to Section 7.4.C and Section 15.12, the Partnership shall be liable for, and shall reimburse the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partner may
determine, for all sums expended in connection with the Partnership’s business, including, without limitation, (i) expenses relating to the ownership of interests in and management and operation of, or for the benefit of, the Partnership,
(ii) compensation of officers and employees, including, without limitation, payments under future compensation plans of the Special Limited Partner, the General Partner, or the Partnership that may provide for stock units, or phantom stock,
pursuant to which employees of the Special Limited Partner, the General Partner, or the Partnership will receive payments based upon dividends on or the value of REIT Shares, (iii) director fees and expenses and (iv) all costs and expenses
of the Special Limited Partner being a public company, including costs of filings with the SEC, reports and other distributions to its stockholders; provided, however, that the amount of any reimbursement shall be reduced by any
interest earned by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner with respect to bank accounts or other instruments or accounts held by it on behalf of the Partnership as permitted pursuant to Section 7.5. Such reimbursements shall be in
addition to any reimbursement of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof. 
 C. To the extent practicable, Partnership expenses shall be billed directly to and paid by the Partnership and, subject to Section 15.12 hereof, reimbursements to the General Partner, the Special
Limited Partner or any of their respective Affiliates by the Partnership pursuant to this Section 7.4 shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning of Code Section 707(c) (unless otherwise required by the Code and
the Regulations). 
 Section 7.5 Outside Activities of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner. Neither the
General Partner nor the Special Limited Partner shall directly or indirectly enter into or conduct any business, other than in connection with, (a) with respect to the General Partner, the ownership, acquisition and disposition of Partnership
Interests, (b) with respect to the General Partner, the management of the business of the Partnership, (c) with respect to the Special Limited Partner, its operation as a reporting company with a class (or 

  
 33 









 
classes) of securities registered under the Exchange Act, (d) with respect to the Special Limited Partner, its operations as a REIT, (e) with respect to the Special Limited Partner, the
offering, sale, syndication, private placement or public offering of stock, bonds, securities or other interests, (f) financing or refinancing of any type related to the Partnership or its assets or activities, and (g) such activities as
are incidental thereto; provided, however, that each of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner may from time to time hold or acquire assets in its own name or otherwise other than through the Partnership so long as each of the General
Partner and the Special Limited Partner takes commercially reasonable measures to insure that the economic benefits and burdens of such Property are otherwise vested in the Partnership, whether by electing to treat such asset as an “Excluded
Property” hereunder, through assignment, mortgage loan or otherwise or, if it is not commercially reasonable to vest such economic interests in the Partnership, the Partners shall negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement, including,
without limitation, the definition of “Adjustment Factor,” to reflect such activities and the direct ownership of assets by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
prohibit the General Partner from executing guarantees of Partnership debt for which it would otherwise be liable in its capacity as General Partner. Subject to Section 7.3.B hereof, the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner and all
“qualified REIT subsidiaries” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)), taken as a group, shall not own any assets or take title to assets (other than temporarily in connection with an acquisition prior to contributing such
assets to the Partnership) other than (i) Excluded Properties, (ii) interests in “qualified REIT subsidiaries” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)), (iii) Partnership Interests as the General Partner or
Special Limited Partner and (iv) such cash and cash equivalents, bank accounts or similar instruments or accounts as such group deems reasonably necessary, taking into account Section 7.1.D hereof and the requirements necessary for the
Special Limited Partner to qualify as a REIT and for the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner to carry out their respective responsibilities contemplated under this Agreement and the Charter. The General Partner and any Affiliates of the
General Partner may acquire Partnership Interests and shall be entitled to exercise all rights of a Limited Partner relating to such Partnership Interests. 
 Section 7.6 Transactions with Affiliates. 
 A. The Partnership may lend or
contribute funds or other assets to the Special Limited Partner and its Subsidiaries or other Persons in which the Special Limited Partner has an equity investment, and such Persons may borrow funds from the Partnership, on terms and conditions no
less favorable to the Partnership in the aggregate than would be available from unaffiliated third parties as determined by the General Partner. The foregoing authority shall not create any right or benefit in favor of any Subsidiary or any other
Person. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed by each Partner that the Special Limited Partner may (i) borrow funds from the Partnership in order to redeem, at any time or from time to time, options or warrants previously or hereafter issued
by the Special Limited Partner, (ii) put to the Partnership, for cash, any rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities that the Special Limited Partner may desire or be required to purchase or redeem or (iii) borrow
funds from the Partnership to acquire assets that become Excluded Properties or will be contributed to the Partnership for Partnership Units. If the Special Limited Partner acquires a corporation in which the Partnership does not hold an interest,
in whole or in part, with the proceeds (whether comprised of cash or other assets) of a loan from the Partnership to the Special Limited Partner, the Partnership shall issue to such corporation an interest in the Partnership that (i) entitles
the holder thereof to receive distributions in amounts and at the same times as interest payments on such loan (with appropriate reductions in such distributions if any portion of the loan is repaid), (ii) entitles the holder thereof to
receive, if and to the extent that any portion of such loan is repaid, a number of Partnership Units equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the principal amount of the loan repaid by the Value of REIT Shares at the date of repayment (it being
understood and agreed that if the loan is repaid with funds contributed to such corporation by the Special Limited Partner from the proceeds of a sale of REIT Shares, the Value of REIT Shares at the date of repayment shall be deemed to be the net
price per share at which such shares were sold), and (iii) is automatically redeemed for no consideration upon the repayment in full of such loan. 
 B. Except as provided in Section 7.5 hereof and subject to Section 3.1 hereof, the Partnership may transfer assets to joint ventures, limited liability companies, partnerships, corporations,
business trusts or other business entities in which it is or thereby becomes a participant upon such terms and subject to such conditions consistent with this Agreement and applicable law. 

C. The General Partner, the Special Limited Partner and their respective Affiliates may sell, transfer or convey any property to the
Partnership, directly or indirectly, on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Partnership in the aggregate than would be available from unaffiliated third parties as determined by the General Partner. 

  
 34 









 D. The General Partner or the Special Limited Partner, without the approval of the Partners
or any of them or any other Persons, may propose and adopt on behalf of the Partnership employee benefit plans funded by the Partnership for the benefit of employees of the General Partner, the Partnership, the Special Limited Partner, Subsidiaries
of the Partnership or any Affiliate of any of them in respect of services performed, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, the Partnership or any of the Partnership’s Subsidiaries.

 Section 7.7 Indemnification. 
 A. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Partnership shall indemnify each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses
(including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and other legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative, that relate to the operations of the Partnership (“Actions”) as set forth in this Agreement in which such Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise; provided,
however, that the Partnership shall not indemnify an Indemnitee (i) arising from actions or omissions by the Indemnitee that are material to the matter giving rise to the action and are established by a final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction to constitute fraud, intentional harm or gross negligence on the part of the Indemnitee, (ii) arising from an action or proceeding initiated by the Indemnitee (other than an action to enforce such Indemnitee’s rights
to indemnification or advance of expenses under this Section 7.7) or (iii) with respect to any claim as to which the Indemnitee is established by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable to the Partnership.
Without limitation, the foregoing indemnity shall extend to any liability of any Indemnitee, pursuant to a loan guaranty or otherwise, for any indebtedness of the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership (including, without limitation, any
indebtedness which the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership has assumed or taken subject to), and the General Partner is hereby authorized and empowered, on behalf of the Partnership, to enter into one or more indemnity agreements
consistent with the provisions of this Section 7.7 in favor of any Indemnitee having or potentially having liability for any such indebtedness. It is the intention of this Section 7.7.A that the Partnership indemnify each Indemnitee to the
fullest extent permitted by law. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard of conduct set forth in this Section 7.7.A. The
termination of any proceeding by conviction of an Indemnitee or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent by an Indemnitee, or an entry of an order of probation against an Indemnitee prior to judgment, does not create a presumption that such
Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified in this Section 7.7.A with respect to the subject matter of such proceeding. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership,
and neither the General Partner nor any other Holder shall have any obligation to contribute to the capital of the Partnership or otherwise provide funds to enable the Partnership to fund its obligations under this Section 7.7. 

B. To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses incurred by an Indemnitee who is a party to a proceeding or otherwise subject to or
the focus of or is involved in any Action shall be paid or reimbursed by the Partnership as incurred by the Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of the Action upon receipt by the Partnership of (i) a written affirmation by the
Indemnitee of the Indemnitee’s good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Partnership as authorized in Section 7.7.A has been met, and (ii) a written undertaking by or on behalf of the
Indemnitee to repay the amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct has not been met, provided that such undertaking need not be secured and shall be without reference to the financial ability for repayment. 

C. The indemnification provided by this Section 7.7 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee or any other
Person may be entitled under any agreement, pursuant to any vote of the Partners, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs,
successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitee unless otherwise provided in a written agreement with such Indemnitee or in the writing pursuant to which such Indemnitee is indemnified. 

  
 35 









 D. The Partnership may, but shall not be obligated to, purchase and maintain insurance, on
behalf of any of the Indemnitees and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by such Person in connection with the Partnership’s activities,
regardless of whether the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement. 
 E. Any liabilities which an Indemnitee incurs as a result of acting on behalf of the Partnership, the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner (whether as a fiduciary or otherwise) in connection
with the operation, administration or maintenance of an employee benefit plan or any related trust or funding mechanism (whether such liabilities are in the form of excise taxes assessed by the IRS, penalties assessed by the Department of Labor,
restitutions to such a plan or trust or other funding mechanism or to a participant or beneficiary of such plan, trust or other funding mechanism, or otherwise) shall be treated as liabilities or judgments or fines under this Section 7.7,
unless such liabilities arise as a result of such Indemnitee’s fraud, intentional harm or gross negligence on the part of the Indemnitee. 
 F. In no event may an Indemnitee subject any of the Holders to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement. 

G. An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.7 because the Indemnitee had an
interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement. 
 H. The provisions of this Section 7.7 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any
other Persons. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.7 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the Partnership’s liability to any Indemnitee under this
Section 7.7 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when
such claims may arise or be asserted. 
 I. It is the intent of the parties that any amounts paid by the Partnership to the
General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning of Code Section 707(c). 
 Section 7.8 Liability of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner. 
 A. To the maximum extent permitted under the Act, the only duties that the General Partner owes to the Partnership, any Partner or any other Person (including any creditor of any Partner or assignee of
any Partnership Interest), fiduciary or otherwise, are to perform its contractual obligations as expressly set forth in this Agreement consistently with the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and to act with the fiduciary
duties of care and loyalty which have been, in accordance with the Act, modified as set forth in this Section 7.8. The General Partner, in its capacity as such, shall have no other duty, fiduciary or otherwise, to the Partnership, any Partner
or any other Person (including any creditor of any Partner or any assignee of Partnership Interest). The provisions of this Agreement other than this Section 7.8 shall create contractual obligations of the General Partner only, and no such
provision shall be interpreted to expand or modify the fiduciary duties of the General Partner under the Act. 
 B. The Limited
Partners agree that: (i) the General Partner (and the Special Limited Partner, as the trustee of the General Partner) is acting for the benefit of the Partnership, the Limited Partners and the Special Limited Partner’s stockholders
collectively; and (ii) in the event of a conflict between the interests of the Partnership or any Partner, on the one hand, and the separate interests of the Special Limited Partner or its stockholders, on the other hand, the General Partner
may give priority to the separate interests of the Special Limited Partner and its stockholders (including, without limitation, with respect to the tax consequences to Limited Partners, Assignees or the Special Limited Partner’s stockholders)
and, in the event of such a conflict, any action or failure to act on the part of the General Partner (or the Special Limited Partner, in its capacity as the sole trustee of the General Partner, or the Special Limited Partner’s directors,
officers and agents) that gives priority to the separate interests of the 

  
 36 









 
Special Limited Partner or its stockholders that does not result in a violation of the contract rights of the Limited Partners under this Agreement does not violate the duty of loyalty or any
other duty owed by the General Partner to the Partnership and the Partners or any duty of the Special Limited Partner. 
 C. In
exercising its authority under this Agreement, the General Partner may, but shall be under no obligation to take into account the tax consequences to any Partner of any action taken (or not taken) by it. Except as otherwise agreed by the
Partnership, the General Partner and the Partnership shall not have liability to a Limited Partner under any circumstances as a result of any income tax liability incurred by such Limited Partner as a result of an action (or inaction) by the General
Partner or the Partnership pursuant to the General Partner’s authority under this Agreement. 
 D. Subject to its
obligations and duties as General Partner set forth in this Agreement and applicable law, the General Partner may exercise any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or
by or through its employees or agents, including through the Special Limited Partner and its employees and agents. The General Partner shall not be responsible to the Partnership or any Partner for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any
such employee or agent appointed by it in good faith. 
 E. In performing its duties under this Agreement and the Act, the
General Partner shall be entitled to rely on the provisions of this Agreement and on any information, opinion, report or statement, including any financial statement or other financial data or the records or books of account of the Partnership or
any subsidiary of the Partnership, prepared or presented by an officer, employee or agent of the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner, or any agent of the Partnership or any such subsidiary, or by a lawyer, certified public accountant,
appraiser or other person engaged by the Partnership as to any matter within such person’s professional or expert competence, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon any such information, opinion, report or statement as to
matters that the General Partner reasonably believes to be within such Person’s professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion. The General Partner
may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document believed by it in good faith to
be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. 
 F. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement or the Act, any action of the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership or any decision of the General Partner to refrain from acting on behalf of the Partnership, undertaken in the good faith belief that such action or omission is
necessary or advisable in order (i) to protect the ability of the Special Limited Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT, (ii) for the Special Limited Partner otherwise to satisfy the REIT Requirements, (iii) to avoid the Special
Limited Partner incurring any taxes under Code Section 857 or Code Section 4981 or (iv) for any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner to continue to qualify as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the
meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)), is expressly authorized under this Agreement, is deemed approved by all of the Limited Partners and does not violate any duty, fiduciary or otherwise, of the General Partner to the Partnership or any other
Partner. 
 G. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except for fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, or
pursuant to any express indemnities given to the Partnership by the General Partner pursuant to any other written instrument, the General Partner shall not have any personal liability whatsoever, to the Partnership or to the other Partners, for any
action or omission taken in its capacity as the General Partner or for the debts or liabilities of the Partnership or the Partnership’s obligations hereunder except pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof. Without limitation of the foregoing, and
except for fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, or pursuant Section 15.1 hereof or any such express indemnity, no property or assets of the General Partner, other than its interest in the Partnership, shall be subject to levy,
execution or other enforcement procedures for the satisfaction of any judgment (or other judicial process) in favor of any other Partner(s) and arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement. 

H. No trustee, officer or agent of the General Partner (including the Special Limited Partner, in its capacity as the trustee of the
General Partner), and no director, officer or agent of the Special Limited Partner shall have any duties directly to the Partnership or any Partner. No officer, trustee or agent of the General Partner or any officer, director, stockholder or agent
of the Special Limited Partner shall be directly liable to the Partnership for money damages by reason of their service as such. 

  
 37 









 I. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.8 or any provision hereof
shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the General Partner’s, the Special Limited Partner’s and their respective trustees’, directors’ officers’ and agents’, liability to the
Partnership and the Limited Partners under this Section 7.8 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such
amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted. 
 Section 7.9 Title to
Partnership Assets. Title to Partnership assets, whether real, personal or mixed and whether tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Partnership as an entity, and no Partner, individually or collectively with other Partners or
Persons, shall have any ownership interest in such Partnership assets or any portion thereof. Title to any or all of the Partnership assets may be held in the name of the Partnership, the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner or one or more
nominees, as the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner may determine, including Affiliates of the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner. The General Partner and the Special Limited Partner hereby declare and warrant that any
Partnership assets for which legal title is held in the name of the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, or any nominee or Affiliate of the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner shall be held by the General Partner
or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, for the use and benefit of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. All Partnership assets shall be recorded as the property of the Partnership in its books and records,
irrespective of the name in which legal title to such Partnership assets is held. 
 Section 7.10 Reliance by Third
Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Person dealing with the Partnership shall be entitled to assume that the General Partner has full power and authority, without the consent or approval of any other Partner,
or Person, to encumber, sell or otherwise use in any manner any and all assets of the Partnership and to enter into any contracts on behalf of the Partnership, and take any and all actions on behalf of the Partnership, and such Person shall be
entitled to deal with the General Partner as if it were the Partnership’s sole party in interest, both legally and beneficially. Each Limited Partner hereby waives any and all defenses or other remedies that may be available against such Person
to contest, negate or disaffirm any action of the General Partner in connection with any such dealing. In no event shall any Person dealing with the General Partner or its representatives be obligated to ascertain that the terms of this Agreement
have been complied with or to inquire into the necessity or expediency of any act or action of the General Partner or its representatives. Each and every certificate, document or other instrument executed on behalf of the Partnership by the General
Partner or its representatives shall be conclusive evidence in favor of any and every Person relying thereon or claiming thereunder that (i) at the time of the execution and delivery of such certificate, document or instrument, this Agreement
was in full force and effect, (ii) the Person executing and delivering such certificate, document or instrument was duly authorized and empowered to do so for and on behalf of the Partnership and (iii) such certificate, document or
instrument was duly executed and delivered in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and is binding upon the Partnership.

the operations, management or control (within the meaning of the Act) of the Partnership’s business, transact any business in the Partnership’s name or have the power to sign documents for or otherwise bind the Partnership. The transaction
of any such business by the General Partner, any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, member, employee, partner, agent, representative, or trustee of the General Partner, the Partnership or any of their Affiliates, in their capacity as such,
shall not affect, impair or eliminate the limitations on the liability of the Limited Partners or Assignees under this Agreement. 
 Section 8.3 Outside Activities of Limited Partners. Subject to any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 7.6 hereof and any other agreements entered into by a Limited Partner or any of
its Affiliates with the General Partner, the Partnership or a Subsidiary (including, without limitation, any employment agreement), any Limited Partner and any Assignee, officer, director, employee, agent, trustee, Affiliate, member or stockholder
of any Limited Partner shall be entitled to and may have business interests and engage in business activities in addition to those relating to the Partnership, including business interests and activities that are in direct or indirect competition

C. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.5, the General Partner may keep confidential from the Limited Partners (or
any of them), for such period of time as the General Partner determines to be reasonable, any information that (i) the General Partner believes to be in the nature of trade secrets or other information the disclosure of which the General
Partner in good faith believes is not in the best interests of the Partnership or the Special Limited Partner or (ii) the Partnership or the General Partner is required by law or by agreement to keep confidential.

other provision of this Agreement, on and after the date on which the aggregate Percentage Interests of the Limited Partners (other than the Special Limited Partner) are less than one percent (1%), the Partnership shall have the right, but not the
obligation, from time to time and at any time to redeem any and all outstanding Partnership Common Units (other than Partnership Common Units held by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner) by treating any Limited Partner as a Tendering
Party who has delivered a Notice of Redemption pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof for the amount of Partnership Common Units to be specified by the General Partner by notice to such Limited Partner that the Partnership has elected to exercise its
rights under this Section 8.6. Such notice given by the General Partner to a Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 8.6 shall be treated as if it were a Notice of Redemption delivered to the General Partner by such Limited Partner. For
purposes of this Section 8.6, (a) any Limited Partner (whether or not otherwise a Qualifying Party) may be treated as a Qualifying Party that is a Tendering Party and (b) the provisions of Sections 15.1.D(1), 15.1.F(1) and
15.1.F(2) hereof shall not apply, but the remainder of Section 15.1 hereof shall apply, mutatis mutandis. 
 Section
8.7 No Rights as Objecting Partner. No Limited Partner and no Holder of a Partnership Interest shall be entitled to exercise any of the rights of an objecting stockholder provided for under Title 3, Subtitle 2 of the Maryland General
Corporation Law or any successor statute in connection with a merger, consolidation or conversion of the Partnership. 
 Section
8.8 No Right to Certificate Evidencing Units; Article 8 Securities. Partnership Units shall not be certificated. No Limited Partner shall be entitled to a certificate evidencing the Partnership Units held by such Limited Partner. Any
certificate evidencing Partnership Units issued prior to the date hereof shall no longer evidence Partnership Units. The Partnership shall not elect to treat any Partnership Unit as a “security” governed by (x) Title 8 of the Maryland
Uniform Commercial Code or (y) Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction. 
 Section
8.9 Board Nomination Rights. 
 A. Board Nominees. 

(1) It shall be a qualification of such number of the members of the board of directors of the Special Limited Partner
(the “REIT Directors”), calculated as contemplated in this Section 8.9.A, that they be nominated by CBI. So long as CBI, together with its Controlled Entities, owns (a) fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding REIT
Shares (assuming all outstanding Partnership Common Units not held by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner or any of their Controlled Entities are tendered for Redemption and exchanged for REIT Shares, regardless of whether such
Partnership Common Units are then eligible for Redemption), such number of directors to which CBI is entitled to nominate shall equal (i) if there is an even number of REIT directors, 50% of the number of REIT Directors minus one; or
(ii) if there is an odd number of REIT Directors, 50% of the number of REIT Directors minus 0.5, provided that in either case, at least one director must meet the Independence Standard (as defined below); or (b) less than fifty percent
(50%) but at least ten percent (10%) of the outstanding REIT Shares (assuming all outstanding Partnership Common Units not held by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner or any of their Controlled Entities are tendered for
Redemption and exchanged for REIT Shares, regardless of whether such Partnership Common Units are then eligible for Redemption), such number of directors to which CBI is entitled to nominate shall equal 20% of the number of REIT Directors (rounded
down, if necessary, to the nearest whole number); provided, however, in either the case of (a) or (b), such number of directors shall not be less than one. If CBI, together with its Controlled Entities, owns less than ten percent (10%) of
the outstanding REIT Shares (assuming all outstanding Partnership Common Units not held by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner or any of their Controlled Entities are tendered for Redemption and exchanged for REIT Shares, regardless
of whether such Partnership Common Units are then eligible for Redemption), it shall not be a qualification of any REIT Director that he or she be nominated by CBI. The Special Limited Partner, acting through its Board of Directors, will recommend
and use all reasonable efforts to cause the election of each CBI Nominee nominated in accordance with the foregoing. The Special Limited Partner agrees to use all reasonable efforts to solicit proxies for such CBI Nominees from all holders of REIT
Shares and/or other voting stock entitled to vote thereon. 

  
 40 









 (2) To facilitate the nomination rights set forth above, the Special Limited
Partner will notify CBI in writing a reasonable period of time in advance of any action to be taken by the Special Limited Partner or the Board of Directors for the purpose of nominating, electing or designating directors, which, in the case of a
proxy statement, information statement or registration statement in which nominees for director would be named, shall be delivered by the Special Limited Partner to CBI no later than 30 days prior to the anticipated mailing or filing date, as
applicable. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of the action to be taken by the Special Limited Partner or the Board of Directors, and the anticipated date thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, CBI will designate any CBI
Nominees by written consent (in accordance with Article 14) of CBI as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter; provided, however, that if CBI shall have failed to designate CBI Nominees in a timely manner, CBI shall be deemed to have
designated any incumbent CBI Nominees in a timely manner unless there are no remaining incumbent CBI Nominees or the incumbent CBI Nominee declines to serve, in which case the Special Limited Partner or the Board of Directors may nominate another
Person. 
 (3) CBI will provide the Special Limited Partner with such information about each CBI Nominee as is
reasonably requested by the Special Limited Partner in order to comply with applicable disclosure rules, including without limitation, any information that a stockholder of the Special Limited Partner must provide to the Special Limited Partner in
order to nominate a director under the Bylaws. 
 (4) To the extent required by law or the rules of the principal
securities exchange on which the REIT Shares are listed or admitted to trading, the Special Limited Partner will take such actions as necessary to ensure that a sufficient number of those members of the Board of Directors that are not CBI Nominees
or members of the Special Limited Partner’s senior management shall at all times satisfy the standard of independence necessary for a director to qualify as an “Independent Director,” as such term (or any replacement term) is used
under the rules and listing standards of such principal securities exchange, as such rules and listing standards may be amended from time to time (the “Independence Standard”) in order to maintain such listing. 

B. Committee Membership. Unless prohibited by law or the rules of the principal securities exchange on which the REIT Shares are
listed or admitted to trading and so long as CBI is entitled to nominate at least one member of the Board of Directors under Section 8.9.A(1), at least one CBI Nominee then serving as a director shall be appointed to each committee of the Board
of Directors (provided that such CBI Nominee meets the rules or listing standards of such securities exchange, as such rules and listing standards may be amended from time to time, for service on such committee), other than any committee formed for
the purpose of evaluating or negotiating any transaction with CBI. 
 C. Vacancies; Removal. If a vacancy on the Board of
Directors arises as a result of the death, disability or retirement, resignation or removal (with or without cause) of a CBI Nominee and such vacancy results in the number of CBI Nominees then serving on the Board of Directors being less than the
number that CBI is then entitled to nominate to the Board of Directors, it will be a qualification of a director that fills such a vacancy that he or she was approved by a majority of the votes of the CBI Nominees then serving on the Board of
Directors. 
 D. Charter and Bylaws to Be Consistent. The Special Limited Partner, acting through the Board of Directors,
shall take or cause to be taken all lawful action necessary or appropriate to ensure that none of the Charter or Bylaws contain any provisions inconsistent with this Agreement or which would in any way nullify or impair the terms of this Agreement
or the rights of CBI hereunder. 
 E. Termination of Nomination Rights. The nomination and other rights of CBI set forth
in this Section 8.9 shall automatically terminate at such time as CBI, together with its Controlled Entities, ceases to own Partnership Units that represent a Percentage Interest of at least 10%. Upon any such termination, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Special Limited Partner shall be entitled to amend this Agreement to delete this Section 8.9 and correlative provisions elsewhere in this Agreement in their entirety. 

  
 41 









 F. Amendment. Except as provided in Section 8.9.E, this Section 8.9 may not
be amended without the prior written Consent of CBI.

 Section 9.1 Records and Accounting. 
 A. The General Partner shall keep or
cause to be kept at the principal business office of the Partnership those records and documents, if any, required to be maintained by the Act and other books and records deemed by the General Partner to be appropriate with respect to the
Partnership’s business, including, without limitation, all books and records necessary to provide to the Limited Partners any information, lists and copies of documents required to be provided pursuant to Section 8.5.A, Section 9.3 or
Article 13 hereof. Any records maintained by or on behalf of the Partnership in the regular course of its business may be kept on any information storage device, provided that the records so maintained are convertible into clearly legible
written form within a reasonable period of time. 
 B. The books of the Partnership shall be maintained, for financial and tax
reporting purposes, on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or on such other basis as the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate. To the extent permitted by sound accounting practices and
principles, the Partnership and the General Partner may operate with integrated or consolidated accounting records, operations and principles. 
 Section 9.2 Partnership Year. The Partnership Year of the Partnership shall be the calendar year. 
 Section 9.3 Reports.

the Special Limited Partner if such statements are prepared solely on a consolidated basis with the Special Limited Partner, for such Partnership Year, presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, such statements to be
audited by a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants selected by the General Partner. 
 B. As soon as
practicable, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the close of each calendar quarter (except the last calendar quarter of each year), the General Partner shall cause to be mailed to each Limited Partner of record as of the last day
of the calendar quarter, a report containing unaudited financial statements of the Partnership, or of the Special Limited Partner if such statements are prepared solely on a consolidated basis with the Special Limited Partner, for such calendar
quarter, and such other information as may be required by applicable law or regulation or as the General Partner determines to be appropriate. 
 C. The General Partner may satisfy its obligations under Section 9.3.A and Section 9.3.B by posting or making available the reports specified in such sections on a website maintained by the
General Partner or the Special Limited Partner. 
 ARTICLE 10 

TAX MATTERS 

Section 10.1 Preparation of Tax Returns. The General Partner shall arrange for the preparation and timely filing of all returns
with respect to Partnership income, gains, deductions, losses and other items required of the Partnership for Federal and state income tax purposes and shall use all reasonable effort to furnish, within ninety (90) days of the close of each
taxable year, the tax information reasonably required by Limited Partners and for Federal and state income tax and any other tax reporting purposes. The Limited Partners shall promptly provide the General Partner with such information relating to
the Contributed Properties, including tax basis and other relevant information, as may be reasonably requested by the General Partner from time to time. 

  
 42 









 Section 10.2 Tax Elections. Except as otherwise provided herein, the General Partner
shall determine whether to make any available election pursuant to the Code, including, but not limited to, the election under Code Section 754 and the election to use the “recurring item” method of accounting provided under Code
Section 461(h) with respect to property taxes imposed on the Partnership’s Properties; provided, however, that, if the “recurring item” method of accounting is elected with respect to such property taxes, the
Partnership shall pay the applicable property taxes prior to the date provided in Code Section 461(h) for purposes of determining economic performance. The General Partner shall have the right to seek to revoke any such election (including,
without limitation, any election under Code Sections 461(h) and 754). 
 Section 10.3 Tax Matters Partner.

 A. The General Partner shall be the “tax matters partner” of the Partnership for Federal income tax purposes. The
tax matters partner shall receive no compensation for its services. All third-party costs and expenses incurred by the tax matters partner in performing its duties as such (including legal and accounting fees and expenses) shall be borne by the
Partnership in addition to any reimbursement pursuant to Section 7.4 hereof. Nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the Partnership from engaging an accounting firm to assist the tax matters partner in discharging its duties hereunder.
At the request of any Limited Partner, the General Partner agrees to inform such Limited Partner regarding the preparation and filing of any returns and with respect to any subsequent audit or litigation relating to such returns; provided,
however, that the General Partner shall have the exclusive power to determine whether to file, and the content of, such returns. 
 B. The tax matters partner is authorized, but not required: 
 (1)
to enter into any settlement with the IRS with respect to any administrative or judicial proceedings for the adjustment of Partnership items required to be taken into account by a Partner for income tax purposes (such administrative proceedings
being referred to as a “tax audit” and such judicial proceedings being referred to as “judicial review”), and in the settlement agreement the tax matters partner may expressly state that such agreement shall bind
all Partners, except that such settlement agreement shall not bind any Partner (i) who (within the time prescribed pursuant to the Code and Regulations) files a statement with the IRS providing that the tax matters partner shall not have the
authority to enter into a settlement agreement on behalf of such Partner (as the case may be) or (ii) who is a “notice partner” (as defined in Code Section 6231) or a member of a “notice group” (as defined in Code
Section 6223(b)(2)); 
 (2) in the event that a notice of a final administrative adjustment at the
Partnership level of any item required to be taken into account by a Partner for tax purposes (a “final adjustment”) is mailed to the tax matters partner, to seek judicial review of such final adjustment, including the filing of a
petition for readjustment with the United States Tax Court or the United States Claims Court, or the filing of a complaint for refund with the District Court of the United States for the district in which the Partnership’s principal place of
business is located; 
 (3) to intervene in any action brought by any other Partner for judicial review of a
final adjustment; 
 (4) to file a request for an administrative adjustment with the IRS at any time and, if any
part of such request is not allowed by the IRS, to file an appropriate pleading (petition or complaint) for judicial review with respect to such request; 
 (5) to enter into an agreement with the IRS to extend the period for assessing any tax that is attributable to any item required to be taken into account by a Partner for tax purposes, or an item affected
by such item; and 

  
 43 









 (6) to take any other action on behalf of the Partners or any of them in
connection with any tax audit or judicial review proceeding to the extent permitted by applicable law or regulations. 
 The taking of any
action and the incurring of any expense by the tax matters partner in connection with any such proceeding, except to the extent required by law, is a matter in the sole and absolute discretion of the tax matters partner and the provisions relating
to indemnification of the General Partner set forth in Section 7.7 hereof shall be fully applicable to the tax matters partner in its capacity as such. 
 Section 10.4 Withholding. Each Limited Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership to withhold from or pay on behalf of or with respect to such Limited Partner any amount of Federal, state, local or
foreign taxes that the General Partner determines that the Partnership is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Limited Partner pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes
required to be withheld or paid by the Partnership pursuant to Code Section 1441, Code Section 1442, Code Section 1445 or Code Section 1446. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Limited Partner shall constitute a
loan by the Partnership to such Limited Partner, which loan shall be repaid by such Limited Partner within fifteen (15) days after notice from the General Partner that such payment must be made unless (i) the Partnership withholds such
payment from a distribution that would otherwise be made to the Limited Partner or (ii) the General Partner determines that such payment may be satisfied out of the Available Cash of the Partnership that would, but for such payment, be
distributed to the Limited Partner. Each Limited Partner hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Partnership a security interest in such Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest to secure such Limited Partner’s obligation to pay
to the Partnership any amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 10.4. In the event that a Limited Partner fails to pay any amounts owed to the Partnership pursuant to this Section 10.4 when due, the General Partner may elect to
make the payment to the Partnership on behalf of such defaulting Limited Partner, and in such event shall be deemed to have loaned such amount to such defaulting Limited Partner and shall succeed to all rights and remedies of the Partnership as
against such defaulting Limited Partner (including, without limitation, the right to receive distributions). Any amounts payable by a Limited Partner hereunder shall bear interest at the base rate on corporate loans at large United States money
center commercial banks, as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal, plus four (4) percentage points (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate) from the date such amount is due (i.e., fifteen (15) days after
demand) until such amount is paid in full. Each Limited Partner shall take such actions as the Partnership or the General Partner shall request in order to perfect or enforce the security interest created hereunder. 

Section 10.5 Organizational Expenses. The General Partner may cause the Partnership to elect to deduct expenses, if any, incurred
by it in organizing the Partnership ratably over a 180-month period as provided in Section 709 of the Code. 

ARTICLE 11 

PARTNER TRANSFERS AND WITHDRAWALS 
 Section 11.1 Transfer. 
 A. No part of the interest of a Partner shall be
subject to the claims of any creditor, to any spouse for alimony or support, or to legal process, and may not be voluntarily or involuntarily alienated or encumbered except as may be specifically provided for in this Agreement. 

B. No Partnership Interest shall be Transferred, in whole or in part, except in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in
this Article 11. Any Transfer or purported Transfer of a Partnership Interest not made in accordance with this Article 11 shall be null and void ab initio. 
 C. No Transfer of any Partnership Interest may be made to a lender to the Partnership or any Person who is related (within the meaning of Section 1.752-4(b) of the Regulations) to any lender to the
Partnership whose loan constitutes a Nonrecourse Liability, without the consent of the General Partner; provided that as a condition to such consent, the lender will be required to enter into an arrangement with the Partnership and the


  
 44 









 
General Partner to redeem or exchange for the REIT Shares Amount any Partnership Units in which a security interest is held by such lender simultaneously with the time at which such lender would
be deemed to be a partner in the Partnership for purposes of allocating liabilities to such lender under Section 752 of the Code. 
 Section 11.2 Transfer of General Partner’s Partnership Interest. 
 A.
Except as provided in Section 11.2.B, and subject to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation, the General Partner may not Transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest without
the Consent of the Partners and, for so long as CBI, together with its Controlled Entities, holds more than 20% of the outstanding Partnership Common Units held by all Partners, the Consent of CBI. 

B. Subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Article 11, the General Partner may Transfer all of its Partnership
Interest at any time to the Special Limited Partner or any Person that is, at the time of such Transfer, a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner, including any “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the
meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)), without the Consent of any Partner, and may designate the transferee to become the new General Partner under Section 12.1. 
 C. The General Partner may not voluntarily withdraw as a general partner of the Partnership without the Consent of the Limited Partners, except in connection with a Transfer of the General Partner’s
entire Partnership Interest permitted in this Article 11 and the admission of the Transferee as a successor General Partner of the Partnership pursuant to the Act and this Agreement. 

D. It is a condition to any Transfer of the entire Partnership Interest of a sole General Partner otherwise permitted hereunder that
(i) coincident or prior to such Transfer, the transferee is admitted as a General Partner pursuant to the Act and this Agreement; (ii) the transferee assumes by operation of law or express agreement all of the obligations of the transferor
General Partner under this Agreement with respect to such Transferred Partnership Interest; and (iii) the transferee has executed such instruments are may be necessary to effectuate such admission and to confirm the agreement of such transferee
to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement applicable to the General Partner and the admission of such transferee as a General Partner. 
 Section 11.3 Limited Partners’ Rights to Transfer. 
 A.
General. Prior to the end of the Twelve-Month Period applicable to any Partnership Interest and except as provided below and in Section 11.1.C hereof, no Limited Partner shall Transfer all or any portion of such Partnership Interest to
any transferee without the consent of the General Partner. After the expiration of the Twelve-Month Period applicable to any Partnership Interest, each Limited Partner, and each transferee of such Partnership Interest or Assignee pursuant to a
Permitted Transfer, shall have the right to Transfer all or any portion of such Partnership Interest to any Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Limited Partner may, at any time, without the consent of the General Partner, Transfer all or any
portion of its Partnership Interest pursuant to a Permitted Transfer (including, in the case of a Limited Partner that is a Permitted Lender Transferee, any Transfer of a Partnership Interest to a Third-Party Pledge Transferee). Any Transfer of a
Partnership Interest by a Limited Partner or an Assignee is subject to Section 11.4 and to satisfaction of the following conditions: 
 (1) Special Limited Partner Right of First Refusal. The transferring Partner (or the Partner’s estate in the event of the Partner’s death) shall give written notice of the proposed
Transfer to the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner, which notice shall state (i) the identity and address of the proposed transferee and (ii) the amount and type of consideration proposed to be received for the Transferred
Partnership Units. The Special Limited Partner shall have ten (10) Business Days upon which to give the Transferring Partner notice of its election to acquire the Partnership Units on the terms set forth in such notice. If it so elects, it
shall purchase the Partnership Units on such terms within ten (10) Business Days after giving notice of such election; provided, however, that in the event that the proposed terms involve a purchase for cash, the Special Limited
Partner may at its election deliver in lieu of all or any portion of such cash a note from the Special Limited Partner payable to the Transferring Partner at a date as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than one hundred eighty
(180) days after such 

  
 45 









 
purchase, and bearing interest at an annual rate equal to the total dividends declared with respect to one (1) REIT Share for the four (4) preceding fiscal quarters of the Special
Limited Partner, divided by the Value as of the closing of such purchase; provided, further, that such closing may be deferred to the extent necessary to effect compliance with the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements
Act of 1976, if applicable, and any other applicable requirements of law. If it does not so elect, the Transferring Partner may Transfer such Partnership Units to a third party, on terms no more favorable to the transferee than the proposed terms,
subject to the other conditions of this Section 11.3. 
 (2) Qualified Transferee. Any Transfer of a
Partnership Interest shall be made only to a single Qualified Transferee; provided, however, that, for such purposes, all Qualified Transferees that are Affiliates, or that comprise investment accounts or funds managed by a single
Qualified Transferee and its Affiliates, shall be considered together to be a single Qualified Transferee; provided, further, that each Transfer meeting the minimum Transfer restriction of Section 11.3A(4) hereof may be to a
separate Qualified Transferee. 
 (3) Opinion of Counsel. The Transferor shall deliver or cause to be
delivered to the General Partner an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to it to the effect that the proposed Transfer may be effected without registration under the Securities Act and will not otherwise violate the registration provisions of
the Securities Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder or violate any state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Partnership Interests Transferred; provided, however, that the General Partner may
waive this condition upon the request of the Transferor. If, in the opinion of such counsel, such Transfer would require the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act or would otherwise violate any Federal or state securities laws
or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Partnership Units, the General Partner may prohibit any Transfer otherwise permitted under this Section 11.3 by a Limited Partner of Partnership Interests. 

(4) Minimum Transfer Restriction. Any Transferring Partner must Transfer not less than the lesser of (i) five
hundred (500) Partnership Units or (ii) all of the remaining Partnership Units owned by such Transferring Partner; provided, however, that, for purposes of determining compliance with the foregoing restriction, all
Partnership Units owned by Affiliates of a Limited Partner shall be considered to be owned by such Limited Partner. 
 (5) No Further Transfers. The transferee shall not be permitted to effect any further Transfer of the Partnership Units, other than to the Special Limited Partner. 

(6) Exception for Permitted Transfers. The conditions of Section 11.3A(1) and Section 11.3A(3) through
Section 11.3A(5) hereof shall not apply in the case of a Permitted Transfer. 
 It is a condition to any Transfer otherwise permitted
hereunder (whether or not such Transfer is effected during or after the applicable Twelve-Month Period) that the transferee assumes by operation of law or express agreement all of the obligations of the transferor Limited Partner under this
Agreement with respect to such Transferred Partnership Interest, and no such Transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor Partner are assumed by a successor
corporation by operation of law) shall relieve the transferor Partner of its obligations under this Agreement without the approval of the General Partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee of any Transferred Partnership Interest shall be
subject to any and all ownership limitations (including, without limitation, the Ownership Limit) contained in the Charter that may limit or restrict such transferee’s ability to exercise its Redemption rights, including, without limitation,
the Ownership Limit. Any transferee, whether or not admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, shall take subject to the obligations of the transferor hereunder. Unless admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, no transferee, whether by a voluntary
Transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, shall have any rights hereunder, other than the rights of an Assignee as provided in Section 11.5 hereof. 

  
 46 









 B. Incapacity. If a Limited Partner is subject to Incapacity, the executor,
administrator, trustee, committee, guardian, conservator or receiver of such Limited Partner’s estate shall have all the rights of a Limited Partner, but not more rights than those enjoyed by other Limited Partners, for the purpose of settling
or managing the estate, and such power as the Incapacitated Limited Partner possessed to Transfer all or any part of its interest in the Partnership. The Incapacity of a Limited Partner, in and of itself, shall not dissolve or terminate the
Partnership. 
 C. Adverse Tax Consequences. No Transfer by a Limited Partner of its Partnership Interests (including any
Redemption, any other acquisition of Partnership Units by the General Partner or any acquisition of Partnership Units by the Partnership and including any Permitted Transfer) may be made to or by any Person if in the opinion of legal counsel for the
Partnership, (i) such Transfer would create a material risk of the Partnership being treated as an association taxable as a corporation or would result in a termination of the Partnership under Code Section 708, or (ii) there would be
a material risk that such Transfer would be treated as effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Code Section 7704.

 Section 11.4 Substituted Limited Partners. 
 A. No Limited Partner shall have the right to substitute a transferee other than a Permitted Transferee as a Limited Partner in its place. A transferee of the interest of a Limited Partner may be admitted
as a Substituted Limited Partner only with the consent of the General Partner; provided, however, that a Permitted Transferee may be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner pursuant to a Permitted Transfer without the consent of the
General Partner. The failure or refusal by the General Partner to permit a transferee of any such interests to become a Substituted Limited Partner shall not give rise to any cause of action against the Partnership or the General Partner. Subject to
the foregoing, an Assignee shall not be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner until and unless it furnishes to the General Partner (i) evidence of acceptance, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, of all the terms,
conditions and applicable obligations of this Agreement, (ii) a counterpart signature page to this Agreement executed by such Assignee and (iii) such other documents and instruments as the General Partner may require to effect such
Assignee’s admission as a Substituted Limited Partner. 
 B. Concurrently with, and as evidence of, the admission of a
Substituted Limited Partner, the General Partner shall amend the Register and the books and records of the Partnership to reflect the name, address and number of Partnership Units of such Substituted Limited Partner and to eliminate or adjust, if
necessary, the name, address and number of Partnership Units of the predecessor of such Substituted Limited Partner. 
 C. A
transferee who has been admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner in accordance with this Article 11 shall have all the rights and powers and be subject to all the restrictions and liabilities of a Limited Partner under this Agreement.

 Section 11.5 Assignees. If the General Partner’s consent is required for the admission of any transferee under
Section 11.3 hereof as a Substituted Limited Partner, as described in Section 11.4 hereof, and the General Partner withholds such consent, such transferee shall be considered an Assignee for purposes of this Agreement. An Assignee shall be
entitled to all the rights of an assignee of a limited partnership interest under the Act, including the right to receive distributions from the Partnership and the share of Net Income, Net Losses and other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and
credit of the Partnership attributable to the Partnership Units assigned to such transferee and the rights to Transfer the Partnership Units provided in this Article 11, but shall not be deemed to be a holder of Partnership Units for any other
purpose under this Agreement (other than as expressly provided in Section 15.1 hereof with respect to a Qualifying Party that becomes a Tendering Party), and shall not be entitled to effect a Consent or vote with respect to such Partnership
Units on any matter presented to the Limited Partners for approval (such right to Consent or vote, to the extent provided in this Agreement or under the Act, fully remaining with the transferor Limited Partner). In the event that any such transferee
desires to make a further assignment of any such Partnership Units, such transferee shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article 11 to the same extent and in the same manner as any Limited Partner desiring to make an assignment of
Partnership Units. 

  
 47 









 Section 11.6 General Provisions. 

A. No Limited Partner may withdraw from the Partnership other than: (i) as a result of a permitted Transfer of all of such Limited
Partner’s Partnership Interest in accordance with this Article 11 with respect to which the transferee becomes a Substituted Limited Partner; (ii) pursuant to a redemption (or acquisition by the General Partner or the Special Limited
Partner) of all of its Partnership Interest pursuant to a Redemption under Section 15.1 hereof and/or pursuant to any Partnership Unit Designation; or (iii) as a result of the acquisition by the General Partner or the Special Limited
Partner of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest, whether or not pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof. 
 B.
Any Limited Partner who shall Transfer all of its Partnership Units in a Transfer (i) permitted pursuant to this Article 11 where such transferee was admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, (ii) pursuant to the exercise of its
rights to effect a redemption of all of its Partnership Units pursuant to a Redemption under Section 15.1 hereof and/or pursuant to any Partnership Unit Designation or (iii) to the Special Limited Partner, whether or not pursuant to
Section 15.1.B hereof, shall cease to be a Limited Partner. 
 C. If any Partnership Unit is Transferred in compliance with
the provisions of this Article 11, or is redeemed by the Partnership, or acquired by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof, on any day other than the first day of a Partnership Year, then Net Income, Net Losses, each
item thereof and all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit attributable to such Partnership Unit for such Partnership Year shall be allocated to the transferor Partner or the Tendering Party (as the case may be) and, in the case of
a Transfer or assignment other than a Redemption, to the transferee Partner, by taking into account their varying interests during the Partnership Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using the “interim closing of the books”
method or another permissible method selected by the General Partner. Solely for purposes of making such allocations, each of such items for the calendar month in which a Transfer occurs shall be allocated to the transferee Partner and none of such
items for the calendar month in which a Transfer or a Redemption occurs shall be allocated to the transferor Partner, or the Tendering Party (as the case may be) if such Transfer occurs on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of the month,
otherwise such items shall be allocated to the transferor. All distributions of Available Cash attributable to such Partnership Unit with respect to which the Partnership Record Date is before the date of such Transfer, assignment or Redemption
shall be made to the transferor Partner or the Tendering Party (as the case may be) and, in the case of a Transfer other than a Redemption, all distributions of Available Cash thereafter attributable to such Partnership Unit shall be made to the
transferee Partner. 
 D. In addition to any other restrictions on Transfer herein contained, in no event may any Transfer or
assignment of a Partnership Interest by any Partner (including any Redemption, any acquisition of Partnership Units by the Special Limited Partner or any other acquisition of Partnership Units by the Partnership) be made (i) to any person or
entity who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own a Partnership Interest; (ii) in violation of applicable law; (iii) of any component portion of a Partnership Interest, such as the Capital Account, or rights to distributions,
separate and apart from all other components of a Partnership Interest; (iv) in the event that such Transfer would cause either the Special Limited Partner to cease to comply with the REIT Requirements or any wholly-owned Subsidiary of the
Special Limited Partner to cease to qualify as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)); (v) if such Transfer would, in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership or the General Partner, cause a
termination of the Partnership for Federal or state income tax purposes (except as a result of the Redemption (or acquisition by the Special Limited Partner) of all Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners); (vi) if such Transfer would,
in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership, cause the Partnership to cease to be classified as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes (except as a result of the Redemption (or acquisition by the Special Limited Partner) of all
Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners (other than the Special Limited Partner)); (vii) if such Transfer would cause the Partnership to become, with respect to any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a
“party-in-interest” (as defined in ERISA Section 3(14)) or a “disqualified person” (as defined in Code Section 4975(c)); (viii) if such Transfer would, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership, cause any
portion of the assets of the Partnership to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to Department of Labor Regulations Section 2510.2-101; (ix) if such Transfer requires the registration of such Partnership Interest
pursuant to any applicable Federal or state securities laws; (x) if such Transfer would create a material risk that the Partnership would become a “publicly traded partnership,” as such term is defined in Code Section 469(k)(2)
or Code 7704(b); (xi) if such Transfer would cause the Partnership to have more than one hundred (100) partners for tax purposes (including as partners those persons indirectly owning an


  
 48 









 
interest in the Partnership through a partnership, limited liability company, subchapter S corporation or grantor trust); (xii) if such Transfer causes the Partnership to become a reporting
company under the Exchange Act; or (xiii) if such Transfer subjects the Partnership to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 or ERISA, each as amended. 

E. Transfers pursuant to this Article 11, other than a Permitted Transfer to a Permitted Transferee pursuant to the exercise of
remedies under a Pledge, may only be made on the first day of a fiscal quarter of the Partnership, unless the General Partner otherwise agrees. 
 Section 11.7 Restrictions on Termination Transactions. 
 A. Neither the
Special Limited Partner nor the General Partner shall engage in, or cause or permit, a Termination Transaction, other than (i) with the Consent of the Limited Partners, or (ii) (a) if the requirements of Section 11.7.B or 11.7.C
are satisfied, if and as applicable, and (b) either: 
 (i) in connection with any such Termination
Transaction, each holder of Partnership Common Units (other than the Special Limited Partner and its wholly owned Subsidiaries) will receive, or will have the right to elect to receive, for each Partnership Common Unit an amount of cash, securities
or other property equal to the product of the Adjustment Factor and the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property paid to a holder of one REIT Share in consideration of one REIT Share pursuant to the terms of such Termination
Transaction; provided, that if, in connection with such Termination Transaction, a purchase, tender or exchange offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of a majority of the outstanding REIT Shares, each holder of Partnership Common
Units (other than the Special Limited Partner and its wholly owned subsidiaries) will receive, or will have the right to elect to receive, the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property which such holder of Partnership Common Units would
have received had it exercised its right to Redemption pursuant to Article 15 hereof and received REIT Shares in exchange for its Partnership Common Units immediately prior to the expiration of such purchase, tender or exchange offer and had
thereupon accepted such purchase, tender or exchange offer and then such Termination Transaction shall have been consummated (the fair market value, at the time of the Termination Transaction, of the amount specified herein with respect to each
Partnership Common Unit is referred to as the “Transaction Consideration”); or 
 (ii) all of
the following conditions are met: (i) substantially all of the assets directly or indirectly owned by the Partnership prior to the announcement of the Termination Transaction are, immediately after the Termination Transaction, owned directly or
indirectly by the Partnership or another limited partnership or limited liability company which is the survivor of a merger, consolidation or combination of assets with the Partnership (in each case, the “Surviving Partnership”);
(ii) the Surviving Partnership is classified as a partnership for U.S. Federal income tax purposes; (iii) the Limited Partners (other than the Special Limited Partner) that held Partnership Common Units immediately prior to the
consummation of such Termination Transaction own a percentage interest of the Surviving Partnership based on the relative fair market value of the net assets of the Partnership and the other net assets of the Surviving Partnership immediately prior
to the consummation of such transaction; (iv) the rights of such Limited Partners with respect to the Surviving Partnership are at least as favorable as those of Limited Partners holding Partnership Common Units immediately prior to the
consummation of such transaction(except to the extent that any such rights are consistent with clause (v) below) and as those applicable to any other limited partners or non-managing members of the Surviving Partnership; and (v) such
rights include: (a) if the Special Limited Partner or its successor is a REIT with a single class of Publicly Traded common equity securities, the right to redeem their interests in the Surviving Partnership at any time for either: (1) a
number of such REIT’s Publicly Traded common equity securities with a fair market value, as of the date of consummation of such Termination Transaction, equal to the Transaction Consideration, subject to antidilution adjustments comparable to
those set forth in the definition of “Adjustment Factor” herein (the “Successor Shares Amount”); or (2) cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Successor Shares Amount at the time of such redemption,
determined in a manner consistent with 

  
 49 









 
the definition of “Value” herein; or (b) if the Special Limited Partner or its successor is not a REIT with a single class of Publicly Traded common equity securities, the right to
redeem their interests in the Surviving Partnership at any time for cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of such interest at the time of redemption, as determined at least once every calendar quarter by an independent appraisal firm of
recognized national standing retained by the Surviving Partnership. 
 B. If the Consent of the Limited Partners has not been
obtained, and CBI, together with its Controlled Entities, holds at least 20% of the outstanding Partnership Common Units held by all Partners, then neither the Special Limited Partner nor the General Partner may engage in, or cause or permit, a
Termination Transaction in connection with which the Special Limited Partner has or will seek the approval of its common stockholders (a “Stockholder Vote”) unless (i) the General Partner first provides the Designated Partners
with advance notice at least equal in time to the advance notice given in the case of the Stockholder Vote, (ii) in connection with such advance notice, the General Partner provides the Designated Partners (other than the Special Limited
Partner and its wholly-owned Subsidiaries) with written materials describing the proposed Termination Transaction as well as the tax effect of the consummation thereof on such Designated Partners and (iii) such Termination Transaction is
approved (the “Partnership Vote”) by a number of affirmative votes cast, or deemed to have been cast, by the Designated Partners as would be sufficient (measured as a percentage of the total number of votes cast or entitled to be
cast (or deemed to be cast)) to approve the Termination Transaction if such approval was to be given by the holders of REIT Shares. For purposes of the Partnership Vote, each Designated Partner holding Partnership Common Units shall be entitled to
cast a number of votes equal to the total votes such Designated Partner would have been entitled to cast at the Stockholder Meeting had such Designated Partner presented its Partnership Common Units for redemption and such Partnership Common Units
had been acquired by the Special Limited Partner for the REIT Shares Amount as of the record date for the Stockholder Meeting; provided, however, that the Special Limited Partner, the General Partner and all of their Subsidiaries shall not be
entitled to vote with respect to any Partnership Vote and shall instead be deemed to have cast all votes that would otherwise have been entitled to be cast by them, in the aggregate, in proportion to the manner in which all outstanding REIT Shares
were voted in the Stockholder Vote (such votes to be “For,” “Against,” “Abstain” and “Not Present”). 
 C. As long as CBI, together with its Controlled Entities, holds at least 20% of the outstanding Partnership Common Units held by all Partners, the Special Limited Partner shall not engage in a Termination
Transaction effected as a short-form merger without a Stockholder Vote pursuant to Section 3-106 of the Maryland General Corporation Law, unless the Special Limited Partner has previously obtained either the consent of CBI or the Consent of
Limited Partners with respect to such transaction. 
 ARTICLE 12 

ADMISSION OF PARTNERS 
 Section 12.1 Admission of Successor General Partner. A successor to all or a portion of the General Partner’s Partnership Interest pursuant to Section 11.2.B hereof who the General
Partner has designated to become a successor General Partner shall be admitted to the Partnership as the General Partner, effective immediately upon the Transfer of such Partnership Interest to it. Upon any such Transfer and the admission of any
such transferee as a successor General Partner in accordance with this Section 12.1, the transferor General Partner shall be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement and shall cease to be a general partner of the Partnership without any
separate Consent of the Partners or the consent or approval of any Partner. Any such successor shall carry on the business of the Partnership without dissolution. In each case, the admission shall be subject to the successor General Partner
executing and delivering to the Partnership an acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and such other documents or instruments as may be required to effect the admission. In the event that the General Partner withdraws from
the Partnership, or transfers its entire Partnership Interest, in violation of this Agreement, or otherwise dissolves or terminates or ceases to be the general partner of the Partnership, a Majority in Interest of the Partners may elect to continue
the Partnership by selecting a successor General Partner in accordance with Section 13.1.A hereof. 

  
 50 









 Section 12.2 Admission of Additional Limited Partners. 

A. After the admission to the Partnership of an Original Limited Partner, a Person (other than an existing Partner) who makes a Capital
Contribution to the Partnership in exchange for Partnership Units and in accordance with this Agreement shall be admitted to the Partnership as an Additional Limited Partner only upon furnishing to the General Partner (i) evidence of
acceptance, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the power of attorney granted in Section 2.4 hereof, (ii) a counterpart signature
page to this Agreement executed by such Person and (iii) such other documents or instruments as may be required by the General Partner in order to effect such Person’s admission as an Additional Limited Partner. Concurrently with, and as
evidence of, the admission of an Additional Limited Partner, the General Partner shall amend the Register and the books and records of the Partnership to reflect the name, address, number and type of Partnership Units of such Additional Limited
Partner. 
 B. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12.2, no Person shall be admitted as an Additional
Limited Partner without the consent of the General Partner. The admission of any Person as an Additional Limited Partner shall become effective on the date upon which the name of such Person is recorded on the books and records of the Partnership,
following the consent of the General Partner to such admission and the satisfaction of all the conditions set forth in Section 12.2.A. 
 C. If any Additional Limited Partner is admitted to the Partnership on any day other than the first day of a Partnership Year, then Net Income, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items of income,
gain, loss, deduction and credit allocable among Holders for such Partnership Year shall be allocated among such Additional Limited Partner and all other Holders by taking into account their varying interests during the Partnership Year in
accordance with Code Section 706(d), using the “interim closing of the books” method or another permissible method selected by the General Partner. Solely for purposes of making such allocations, each of such items for the calendar
month in which an admission of any Additional Limited Partner occurs shall be allocated among all the Holders including such Additional Limited Partner, in accordance with the principles described in Section 11.6.C hereof. All distributions of
Available Cash with respect to which the Partnership Record Date is before the date of such admission shall be made solely to Partners and Assignees other than the Additional Limited Partner, and all distributions of Available Cash thereafter shall
be made to all the Partners and Assignees including such Additional Limited Partner. 
 Section 12.3 Amendment of Agreement
and Certificate of Limited Partnership. For the admission to the Partnership of any Partner, the General Partner shall take all steps necessary and appropriate under the Act to amend the Register and the books and records of the Partnership and,
if necessary, to prepare as soon as practical an amendment of this Agreement and, if required by law, shall prepare and file an amendment to the Certificate and may for this purpose exercise the power of attorney granted pursuant to Section 2.4
hereof. 
 Section 12.4 Limit on Number of Partners. Unless otherwise permitted by the General Partner, no Person shall
be admitted to the Partnership as an Additional Limited Partner if the effect of such admission would be to cause the Partnership to have a number of Partners (including as Partners for this purpose those Persons indirectly owning an interest in the
Partnership through another partnership, a limited liability company, a subchapter S corporation or a grantor trust) that would cause the Partnership to become a reporting company under the Exchange Act. 

Section 12.5 Admission. A Person shall be admitted to the Partnership as a limited partner of the Partnership or a general partner
of the Partnership only upon strict compliance, and not upon substantial compliance, with the requirements set forth in this Agreement for admission to the Partnership as a Limited Partner or a General Partner. 

  
 51 









 ARTICLE 13 
 DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION 
 Section 13.1 Dissolution. The
Partnership shall not be dissolved by the admission of Substituted Limited Partners or Additional Limited Partners, or by the admission of a successor General Partner in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon the withdrawal of the General
Partner, any successor General Partner shall continue the business of the Partnership without dissolution. However, the Partnership shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up, upon the first to occur of any of the following (each a
“Liquidating Event”): 
 A. an event of withdrawal, as defined in Section 10-402(2) –
(9) of the Act (including, without limitation, bankruptcy), or the withdrawal in violation of this Agreement of the last remaining General Partner unless, within ninety (90) days after the withdrawal, a Majority in Interest of the Partners
agree in writing to continue the Partnership and to the appointment, effective as of the date of withdrawal, of a successor General Partner; 
 B. an election to dissolve the Partnership made by the General Partner, with or without the Consent of the Partners, and, if CBI, together with its Controlled Entities, holds at least 20% of the
outstanding Partnership Common Units held by all Partners, the Consent of CBI; or 
 C. entry of a decree of judicial
dissolution of the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of the Act. 
 Section 13.2 Winding Up. 

A. Upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Partnership shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an
orderly manner, liquidating its assets and satisfying the claims of its creditors and the Holders. After the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, no Holder shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the
winding up of the Partnership’s business and affairs. The General Partner (or, in the event that there is no remaining General Partner or the General Partner has dissolved, become bankrupt within the meaning of the Act or ceased to operate, any
Person elected by a Majority in Interest of the Partners (the General Partner or such other Person being referred to herein as the “Liquidator”)) shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and dissolution of the Partnership
and shall take full account of the Partnership’s liabilities and property, and the Partnership property shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom (which may, to the extent
determined by the General Partner, include shares of stock in the Special Limited Partner) shall be applied and distributed in the following order: 
 (1) First, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to creditors other than the Holders (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof);

 (2) Second, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the General Partner
and the Special Limited Partner (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof), including, but not limited to, amounts due as reimbursements under Section 7.4 hereof; 

(3) Third, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the other Holders (whether by
payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof); and 
 (4) Subject to the terms of any
Partnership Unit Designation, the balance, if any, to the Holders in accordance with and in proportion to their positive Capital Account balances, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all periods. 

  
 52 









 The General Partner shall not receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to
this Article 13. 
 B. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.2.A hereof that require liquidation of the assets
of the Partnership, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, if prior to or upon dissolution of the Partnership, the Liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Partnership’s assets would be impractical
or would cause undue loss to the Holders, the Liquidator may, in its sole and absolute discretion, defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any assets except those necessary to satisfy liabilities of the Partnership (including to those Holders
as creditors) and/or distribute to the Holders, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.2.A hereof, undivided interests in such Partnership assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for
liquidation. Any such distributions in kind shall be made only if, in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator, such distributions in kind are in the best interest of the Holders, and shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition
and management of such properties as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable and to any agreements governing the operation of such properties at such time. The Liquidator shall determine the fair market value of any property distributed in
kind using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt. 
 C. In the event that the Partnership is
“liquidated,” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), distributions shall be made pursuant to this Article 13 to the Holders that have positive Capital Accounts in compliance with Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2) to the extent of, and in proportion to, positive Capital Account balances. If any Holder has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for
all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), such Holder shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Partnership with respect to such deficit, and such deficit shall not be considered a
debt owed to the Partnership or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever. In the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner or the Liquidator, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Holders
pursuant to this Article 13 may be: 
 (1) distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the General
Partner and the Holders for the purpose of liquidating Partnership assets, collecting amounts owed to the Partnership, and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership or of the General Partner arising out of or
in connection with the Partnership and/or Partnership activities. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the Holders, from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the General Partner, in the same proportions and amounts as would
otherwise have been distributed to the Holders pursuant to this Agreement; or 
 (2) withheld or escrowed to
provide a reasonable reserve for Partnership liabilities (contingent or otherwise) and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Partnership, provided that such withheld or escrowed amounts shall be distributed to
the Holders in the manner and order of priority set forth in Section 13.2.A hereof as soon as practicable. 
 Section 13.3
Deemed Contribution and Distribution. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 13, in the event that the Partnership is liquidated within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), but no Liquidating Event
has occurred, the Partnership’s Property shall not be liquidated, the Partnership’s liabilities shall not be paid or discharged and the Partnership’s affairs shall not be wound up. Instead, for Federal income tax purposes the
Partnership shall be deemed to have contributed all of its assets and liabilities to a new partnership in exchange for an interest in the new partnership; and immediately thereafter, distributed Partnership Units to the Partners in the new
partnership in accordance with their respective Capital Accounts in liquidation of the Partnership, and the new partnership is deemed to continue the business of the Partnership. Nothing in this Section 13.3 shall be deemed to have constituted
any Assignee as a Substituted Limited Partner without compliance with the provisions of Section 11.4 hereof. 
 Section
13.4 Rights of Holders. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and subject to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation, (a) each Holder shall look solely to the assets of
the Partnership for the return of its Capital Contribution, (b) no Holder shall have the right or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Partnership and (c) no Holder shall have priority over any other Holder as to
the return of its Capital Contributions, distributions or allocations. 

  
 53 









 Section 13.5 Notice of Dissolution. In the event that a Liquidating Event occurs or
an event occurs that would, but for an election or objection by one or more Partners pursuant to Section 13.1 hereof, result in a dissolution of the Partnership, the General Partner or Liquidator shall, within thirty (30) days thereafter,
provide written notice thereof to each of the Holders and, in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner or the Liquidator, or as required by the Act, to all other parties with whom the Partnership regularly conducts business (as
determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner or Liquidator), and the General Partner or Liquidator may, or, if required by the Act, shall, publish notice thereof in a newspaper of general circulation in each place in which
the Partnership regularly conducts business (as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner or Liquidator). 
 Section 13.6 Cancellation of Certificate of Limited Partnership. Upon the completion of the liquidation of the Partnership cash and property as provided in Section 13.2 hereof, the Partnership
shall be terminated, a certificate of cancellation shall be filed with the State of Maryland, all qualifications of the Partnership as a foreign limited partnership or association in jurisdictions other than the State of Maryland shall be cancelled,
and such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Partnership shall be taken. 
 Section 13.7 Reasonable Time for
Winding-Up. A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding-up of the business and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 13.2 hereof, in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant
upon such winding-up, and the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect between and among the Partners during the period of liquidation. 
 ARTICLE 14 
 PROCEDURES FOR ACTIONS AND CONSENTS 

OF PARTNERS; AMENDMENTS; MEETINGS 
 Section 14.1 Actions and Consents of Partners. The actions requiring Consent of any Partner pursuant to this Agreement, including Section 7.3 hereof, or otherwise pursuant to applicable law,
are subject to the procedures set forth in this Article 14. 
 Section 14.2 Amendments. Except as otherwise required
or permitted by this Agreement (including Section 7.3), amendments to this Agreement must be approved by the Consent of the General Partner and the Consent of the Partners, and may be proposed only by (a) the General Partner, or
(b) Limited Partners holding a majority of the Partnership Common Units then held by Limited Partners (excluding the Special Limited Partner and any Controlled Entity of the Special Limited Partner). Following such proposal, the General Partner
shall submit to the Partners any proposed amendment that, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, requires the Consent of the Partners. The General Partner shall seek the Consent of the Partners entitled to vote thereon on any such proposed
amendment in accordance with Section 14.3 hereof. Upon obtaining any such Consent, or any other Consent required by this Agreement, and without further action or execution by any other Person, including any Limited Partner, (i) any
amendment to this Agreement may be implemented and reflected in a writing executed solely by the General Partner, and (ii) the Limited Partners shall be deemed a party to and bound by such amendment of this Agreement. Within thirty days after
the effectiveness of any amendment to this Agreement that does not receive the Consent of all Partners, the General Partner shall deliver a copy of such amendment to all Partners that did not Consent to such amendment. For the avoidance of doubt,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement may not be amended without the Consent of the General Partner. 
 Section 14.3 Procedures for Meetings and Actions of the Partners. 
 A.
Meetings of the Partners may be called only by the General Partner. The call shall state the nature of the business to be transacted. Notice of any such meeting shall be given to all Partners entitled to act at the meeting not less than ten
(10) days nor more than ninety (90) days prior to the date of such meeting. Partners may vote in person or by proxy at such meeting. Unless approval by a different number or proportion of the


  
 54 









 
Partners is required by this Agreement, or any Partnership Unit Designation, the affirmative vote of a Majority in Interest of the Partners shall be sufficient to approve such proposal at a
meeting of the Partners. Whenever the Consent of any Partners is permitted or required under this Agreement, such Consent may be given at a meeting of Partners or in accordance with the procedure prescribed in Section 14.3.B hereof. 

B. Any action requiring the Consent of any Partner or a group of Partners pursuant to this Agreement, or that is required or permitted to
be taken at a meeting of the Partners may be taken without a meeting if a Consent in writing or by electronic transmission setting forth the action so taken or consented to is given by Partners whose affirmative vote would be sufficient to approve
such action or provide such Consent at a meeting of the Partners. Such Consent may be in one instrument or in several instruments, and shall have the same force and effect as the affirmative vote of such Partners at a meeting of the Partners. Such
Consent shall be filed with the General Partner. An action so taken shall be deemed to have been taken at a meeting held on the effective date so certified. For purposes of obtaining a Consent in writing or by electronic transmission, the General
Partner may require a response within a reasonable specified time, but not less than fifteen (15) days, and failure to respond in such time period shall constitute a Consent that is consistent with the General Partner’s recommendation with
respect to the proposal; provided, however, that an action shall become effective at such time as requisite Consents are received even if prior to such specified time. 

C. Each Partner entitled to act at a meeting of Partners may authorize any Person or Persons to act for it by proxy on all matters in
which a Partner is entitled to participate, including waiving notice of any meeting, or voting or participating at a meeting. Each proxy must be signed by the Partner or its attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of eleven
(11) months from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy (or there is receipt of a proxy authorizing a later date). Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the Partner executing it, such revocation to be effective upon
the Partnership’s receipt of written notice of such revocation from the Partner executing such proxy, unless such proxy states that it is irrevocable and is coupled with an interest. 

D. The General Partner may set, in advance, a record date for the purpose of determining the Partners (i) entitled to Consent to any
action, (ii) entitled to receive notice of or vote at any meeting of the Partners or (iii) in order to make a determination of Partners for any other proper purpose. Such date, in any case, shall not be prior to the close of business on
the day the record date is fixed and shall be not more than ninety (90) days and, in the case of a meeting of the Partners, not less than ten (10) days, before the date on which the meeting is to be held. If no record date is fixed, the
record date for the determination of Partners entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the Partners shall be at the close of business on the day on which the notice of the meeting is sent, and the record date for any other determination of
Partners shall be the effective date of such Partner action, distribution or other event. When a determination of the Partners entitled to vote at any meeting of the Partners has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall apply
to any adjournment thereof. 
 E. Each meeting of Partners shall be conducted by the General Partner or such other Person as the
General Partner may appoint pursuant to such rules for the conduct of the meeting as the General Partner or such other Person deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion. Without limitation, meetings of Partners may be conducted in the
same manner as meetings of the Special Limited Partner’s stockholders and may be held at the same time as, and as part of, the meetings of the Special Limited Partner’s stockholders. 

ARTICLE 15 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 Section 15.1 Redemption Rights of Qualifying Parties. 
 A. After the
Twelve-Month Period applicable to such Partnership Common Units, a Qualifying Party shall have the right (subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein) to require the Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the Partnership Common Units
held by such Tendering Party (Partnership Common Units that have in fact been tendered for redemption being hereafter referred to as “Tendered Units”) in exchange (a “Redemption”) for the Cash Amount payable on the
Specified Redemption Date. The Partnership may, in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion, redeem Tendered Units at the request of the Holder thereof prior to 

  
 55 









 
the end of the applicable Twelve-Month Period (subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein) (a “Special Redemption”); provided that, unless waived by the Special
Limited Partner, the General Partner first receives a legal opinion to the same effect as the legal opinion described in Section 15.1G(4) of this Agreement. Any Redemption shall be exercised pursuant to a Notice of Redemption delivered to the
General Partner by the Qualifying Party when exercising the Redemption right (the “Tendering Party”). The Partnership’s obligation to effect a Redemption, however, shall not arise or be binding against the Partnership
(i) until and unless the Special Limited Partner declines or fails to exercise its purchase rights pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof following receipt of a Notice of Redemption (a “Declination”) and (ii) until the
Business Day following the Cut-Off Date. In the event of a Redemption, the Cash Amount shall be delivered as a certified or bank check payable to the Tendering Party or, in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion, in immediately
available funds on or before the Specified Redemption Date. 
 B. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15.1.A hereof,
on or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date, the Special Limited Partner may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to acquire some or all (such percentage being referred to as the “Applicable Percentage”) of the
Tendered Units from the Tendering Party in exchange for the REIT Shares Amount calculated based on the portion of Tendered Units it elects to acquire in exchange for REIT Shares. If the Special Limited Partner so elects, on the Specified Redemption
Date the Tendering Party shall sell such number of the Tendered Units to the Special Limited Partner in exchange for a number of REIT Shares equal to the product of the REIT Shares Amount and the Applicable Percentage. The Tendering Party shall
submit (i) such information, certification or affidavit as the Special Limited Partner may reasonably require in connection with the application of the Ownership Limit to any such acquisition and (ii) such written representations,
investment letters, legal opinions or other instruments necessary, in the Special Limited Partner’s view, to effect compliance with the Securities Act. In the event of a purchase of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to
this Section 15.1.B, the Tendering Party shall no longer have the right to cause the Partnership to effect a Redemption of such Tendered Units, and, upon notice to the Tendering Party by the Special Limited Partner, given on or before the close
of business on the Cut-Off Date, that the Special Limited Partner has elected to acquire some or all of the Tendered Units pursuant to this Section 15.1.B, the obligation of the Partnership to effect a Redemption of the Tendered Units as to
which the Special Limited Partner’s notice relates shall not accrue or arise. A number of REIT Shares equal to the product of the Applicable Percentage and the REIT Shares Amount, if applicable, shall be delivered by the Special Limited Partner
as duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable REIT Shares and, if applicable, Rights, free of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or restriction, other than the Ownership Limit and other restrictions provided in the Charter, the
Securities Act and relevant state securities or “blue sky” laws. Neither any Tendering Party whose Tendered Units are acquired by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 15.1.B, any Partner, any Assignee nor any other
interested Person shall have any right to require or cause the Special Limited Partner to register, qualify or list any REIT Shares owned or held by such Person, whether or not such REIT Shares are issued pursuant to this Section 15.1.B, with
the SEC, with any state securities commissioner, department or agency, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or with any stock exchange; provided, however, that this limitation shall not be in derogation of any registration or similar rights
granted pursuant to any other written agreement between the Special Limited Partner and any such Person. Notwithstanding any delay in such delivery, the Tendering Party shall be deemed the owner of such REIT Shares and Rights for all purposes,
including, without limitation, rights to vote or consent, receive dividends, and exercise rights, as of the Specified Redemption Date. REIT Shares issued upon an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to this
Section 15.1.B may contain such legends regarding restrictions under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws as the Special Limited Partner in good faith determines to be necessary or advisable in order to ensure compliance with
such laws. 
 C. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 15.1.A, 15.1.B and 15.1.H hereof, (i) no Person shall be
entitled to effect a Redemption for cash or an exchange for REIT Shares to the extent the ownership or right to acquire REIT Shares pursuant to such exchange on the Specified Redemption Date could cause such Person (or any other Person) to violate
the restrictions on ownership and transfer of REIT Shares set forth in the Charter, after giving effect to any waivers or modifications of such restrictions by the Board of Directors, and (ii) no Person shall have any rights under this
Agreement to acquire REIT Shares which would otherwise be prohibited under the Charter, after giving effect to any waivers or modifications of such restrictions by the Board of Directors. To the extent that any attempted Redemption or acquisition of
the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof would be in violation of this Section 15.1.C, it shall be null and void ab initio, and the Tendering Party shall not acquire any rights or economic
interests in the Cash Amount otherwise payable upon such Redemption or the REIT Shares otherwise issuable by the Special Limited Partner under Section 15.1.B hereof. 

  
 56 









 D. In the event of a Declination: 

(1) The Special Limited Partner shall give notice of such Declination to the Tendering Party on or before the close of
business on the Cut-Off Date. The failure of the Special Limited Partner to give notice of such Declination by the close of business on the Cut-Off Date shall be deemed to be an election by the Special Limited Partner to acquire the Tendered Units
in exchange for REIT Shares. 
 (2) The Partnership may elect to raise funds for the payment of the Cash Amount
either (a) by requiring that the Special Limited Partner contribute to the Partnership funds from the proceeds of a registered public offering by the Special Limited Partner of REIT Shares sufficient to purchase the Tendered Units or
(b) from any other sources (including, but not limited to, the sale of any Property and the incurrence of additional Debt) available to the Partnership. 
 (3) If the Cash Amount is not paid on or before the Specified Redemption Date, interest shall accrue with respect to the Cash Amount from the day after the Specified Redemption Date to and including the
date on which the Cash Amount is paid at a rate equal to the Applicable Federal Short-Term Rate as published monthly by the IRS. 
 E. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15.1.B hereof or Section 15.1.H hereof, if the Special Limited Partner’s acquisition of Tendered Units in exchange for the REIT Shares Amount
would be prohibited under the Charter, then (i) the Special Limited Partner shall not elect to acquire such Tendered Units, and (ii) the Partnership shall not be obligated to effect a Redemption of such Tendered Units. 

F. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but subject to Section 15.1.C hereof), with respect to any Redemption (or any
tender of Partnership Common Units for Redemption if the Tendered Units are acquired by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof) pursuant to this Section 15.1: 

(1) Without the consent of the General Partner, no Tendering Party may effect a Redemption for less than two thousand
(2,000) Partnership Common Units or, if such Tendering Party holds less than two thousand (2,000) Partnership Common Units, all of the Partnership Common Units held by such Tendering Party. 

(2) If (i) a Tendering Party surrenders Tendered Units during the period after the Partnership Record Date with
respect to a distribution payable to Holders of Partnership Common Units, and before the record date established by the Special Limited Partner for a dividend to its stockholders of some or all of its portion of such Partnership distribution, and
(ii) the Special Limited Partner elects to acquire any of such Tendered Units in exchange for REIT Shares pursuant to Section 15.1.B, then such Tendering Party shall pay to the Special Limited Partner on the Specified Redemption Date an
amount in cash equal to the Partnership distribution paid or payable in respect of such Tendered Units. 
 (3)
The consummation of such Redemption (or an acquisition of Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof, as the case may be) shall be subject to the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period,
if any, under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. 
 (4) The Tendering Party
shall continue to own (subject, in the case of an Assignee, to the provisions of Section 11.5 hereof) all Partnership Common Units subject to any Redemption, and be treated as a Limited Partner or an Assignee, as applicable, with respect to
such Partnership Common Units for all purposes of this Agreement, until the Specified Redemption Date and until such Tendered Units are either paid for by the Partnership pursuant to 

  
 57 









 
Section 15.1.A hereof or transferred to the Special Limited Partner and paid for, by the issuance of REIT Shares, pursuant to Section 15.1.B. Until a Specified Redemption Date and an
acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof, the Tendering Party shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Special Limited Partner with respect to the REIT Shares issuable in connection
with such acquisition. 
 G. In connection with an exercise of Redemption rights pursuant to this Section 15.1, unless
waived by the Special Limited Partner, the Tendering Party shall submit the following to the Special Limited Partner, in addition to the Notice of Redemption: 
 (1) A written affidavit, dated the same date as the Notice of Redemption, (a) disclosing the actual and constructive ownership, as determined for purposes of Code Sections 856(a)(6) and 856(h),
of REIT Shares by (i) such Tendering Party and (ii) to the best of such Tendering Party’s knowledge, any Related Party, and (b) representing that, after giving effect to an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited
Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof, neither the Tendering Party nor, to the best of such Tendering Party’s knowledge, any Related Party, will own REIT Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit; 

(2) A written representation that neither the Tendering Party nor, to the best of such Tendering Party’s knowledge,
any Related Party, has any intention to acquire any additional REIT Shares prior to the Specified Redemption Date; and 
 (3) An undertaking to certify, at and as a condition to the closing of (i) the Redemption or (ii) the acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to
Section 15.1.B hereof on the Specified Redemption Date, that either (a) the actual and constructive ownership of REIT Shares by the Tendering Party and, to the best of such Tendering Party’s knowledge, any Related Party, remain
unchanged from that disclosed in the affidavit required by Section 15.1G(1), or (b) after giving effect to the Redemption or an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof,
neither the Tendering Party nor, to the best of such Tendering Party’s knowledge, any Related Party, shall own REIT Shares in violation of the Ownership Limit. 

(4) In connection with any Special Redemption, the Special Limited Partner shall have the right to receive an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to it to the effect that the proposed Special Redemption will not cause the Partnership, the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner to violate any Federal or state securities laws or regulations applicable to
the Special Redemption or the issuance and sale of REIT Shares to the Tendering Party pursuant to Section 15.1.B of this Agreement. 
 H. Stock Offering Funding Option 
 (1) (a) Notwithstanding
Sections 15.1.A or 15.1.B hereof (but subject to Sections 15.1.C and 15.1.E hereof), if (i) a Limited Partner has delivered to the General Partner a Notice of Redemption with respect to a number of Excess Units that, together with any
other Tendered Units that such Limited Partner agrees to treat as Excess Units (collectively, the “Offering Units”), exceeds $50,000,000 gross value, based on a Partnership Common Unit price equal to the Value of a REIT Share, and
(ii) the Special Limited Partner is eligible to file a registration statement under Form S-3 (or any successor form similar thereto), then either: (x) the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner may cause the Partnership to redeem
the Offering Units with the proceeds of an offering, whether registered under the Securities Act or exempt from such registration, underwritten, offered and sold directly to investors or through agents or other intermediaries, or otherwise
distributed (a “Stock Offering Funding”) of a number of REIT Shares (“Offered Shares”) equal to the REIT Shares Amount with respect to the Offering Units pursuant to the terms of this Section 15.1.H;
(y) the Partnership shall pay the Cash Amount with respect to the Excess Units pursuant to the terms of Section 15.1.A; or (z) the Special Limited Partner shall acquire the Excess Units in exchange for the REIT Shares Amount pursuant
to the terms of 

  
 58 









 
Section 15.1.B, but only if the Tendering Party provides the General Partner with any representations or undertakings which the Special Limited Partner has determined, in its sole and
absolute discretion, are sufficient to prevent a violation of the Charter. The General Partner and the Special Limited Partner must provide notice of their exercise of the election described in clause (x) above to purchase the Tendered Units
through a Stock Offering Funding on or before the Cut-Off Date. 
 (b) If the General Partner and the Special
Limited Partner elect a Stock Offering Funding with respect to a Notice of Redemption, the General Partner may give notice (a “Single Funding Notice”) of such election to all Limited Partners and require that all Limited Partners
elect whether or not to effect a Redemption to be funded through such Stock Offering Funding. If a Limited Partner elects to effect such a Redemption, it shall give notice thereof and of the number of Common Units to be made subject thereto in
writing to the General Partner within 10 Business Days after receipt of the Single Funding Notice, and such Limited Partner shall be treated as a Tendering Party for all purposes of this Section 15.1.H. 

(2) If the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner elect a Stock Offering Funding, on the Specified Redemption
Date, the Partnership shall redeem each Offering Unit that is still a Tendered Unit on such date for cash in immediately available funds in an amount (the “Stock Offering Funding Amount”) equal to the net proceeds per Offered Share
received by the Special Limited Partner from the Stock Offering Funding, determined after deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions but no other expenses of the Special Limited Partner or any other Limited Partner related thereto,
including without limitation, legal and accounting fees and expenses, Securities and Exchange Commission registration fees, state blue sky and securities laws fees and expenses, printing expenses, FINRA filing fees, exchange listing fees and other
out of pocket expenses (the “Net Proceeds”). 
 (3) If the General Partner and the Special
Limited Partner elect a Stock Offering Funding, the following additional terms and conditions shall apply: 
 (a)
As soon as practicable after the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner elect to effect a Stock Offering Funding, the Special Limited Partner shall use its reasonable efforts to effect as promptly as possible a registration, qualification
or compliance (including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable
regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of the Offered Shares; provided, that, if the Special Limited Partner shall
deliver a certificate to the Tendering Party stating that the Special Limited Partner has determined in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Special Limited Partner that such filing, registration or qualification would require
disclosure of material non-public information, the disclosure of which would have a material adverse effect on the Special Limited Partner, then the Special Limited Partner may delay making any filing or delay the effectiveness of any registration
or qualification for the shorter of (a) the period ending on the date upon which such information is disclosed to the public or ceases to be material or (b) an aggregate period of ninety (90) days in connection with any Stock Offering
Funding. 
 (b) The Special Limited Partner shall advise each Tendering Party, regularly and promptly upon any
request, of the status of the Stock Offering Funding process, including the timing of all filings, the selection of and understandings with underwriters, agents, dealers and brokers, the nature and contents of all communications with the Securities
and Exchange Commission and other governmental bodies, the expenses related to the Stock Offering Funding as they are being incurred, the nature of marketing activities, and any other matters reasonably related to the timing, price and expenses
relating to the Stock Offering Funding and the compliance by the Special Limited Partner with its obligations with respect thereto. The Special Limited Partner will have reasonable procedures whereby the Tendering Party with the largest


  
 59 









 
number of Offered Units (the “Lead Tendering Party”) may represent all the Tendering Parties in connection with the Stock Offering Funding by allowing it to participate in
meetings with the underwriters of the Stock Offering Funding. In addition, the Special Limited Partner and each Tendering Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, enter into understandings in writing (“Pricing Agreements”)
whereby the Tendering Party will agree in advance as to the acceptability of a Net Proceeds amount at or below a specified amount. Furthermore, the Special Limited Partner shall establish pricing notification procedures with each such Tendering
Party, such that the Tendering Partner will have the maximum opportunity practicable to determine whether to become a Withdrawing Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.H(3)(c) below. 

(c) The Special Limited Partner will permit the Lead Tendering Party to participate in the pricing discussions for the
Stock Offering Funding and, upon notification of the price per REIT Share in the Stock Offering Funding from the managing underwriter(s), in the case of a registered public offering, or lead placement agent(s), in the event of an unregistered
offering, engaged by the Special Limited Party in order to sell the Offered Shares, shall immediately use its reasonable efforts to notify each Tendering Party of the price per REIT Share in the Stock Offering Funding and resulting Net Proceeds.
Each Tendering Party shall have one hour from the receipt of such written notice (as such time may be extended by the Special Limited Partner) to elect to withdraw its Redemption (a Tendering Party making such an election being a
“Withdrawing Partner”), and Partnership Common Units with a REIT Shares Amount equal to such excluded Offered Shares shall be considered to be withdrawn from the related Redemption; provided, however, that the Special
Limited Partner shall keep each of the Tendering Parties reasonably informed as to the likely timing of delivery of its notice. If a Tendering Party, within such time period, does not notify the Special Limited Partner of such Tendering Party’s
election not to become a Withdrawing Partner, then such Tendering Party shall, except as otherwise provided in a Pricing Agreement, be deemed not to have withdrawn from the Redemption, without liability to the Special Limited Partner. To the extent
that the Special Limited Partner is unable to notify any Tendering Party, such unnotified Tendering Party shall, except as otherwise provided in any Pricing Agreement, be deemed not to have elected to become a Withdrawing Partner. Each Tendering
Party whose Redemption is being funded through the Stock Offering Funding who does not become a Withdrawing Partner shall have the right, subject to the approval of the managing underwriter(s) or placement agent(s) and restrictions of any applicable
securities laws, to submit for Redemption additional Partnership Common Units in a number no greater than the number of Partnership Common Units withdrawn. If more than one Tendering Party so elects to redeem additional Partnership Common Units,
then such Partnership Common Units shall be redeemed on a pro rata basis, based on the number of additional Partnership Common Units sought to be so redeemed. 
 (d) The Special Limited Partner shall take all reasonable action in order to effectuate the sale of the Offered Shares including, but not limited to, the entering into of an underwriting or placement
agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter(s) or placement agent(s) selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter(s) or placement agent(s) advises the Special
Limited Partner in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be offered, then the Special Limited Partner shall so advise all Tendering Parties and the number of Partnership Common Units to be sold to the Special
Limited Partner pursuant to the Redemption shall be allocated among all Tendering Parties in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective number of Partnership Common Units as to which each Tendering Party elected to effect a Redemption.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Special Limited Partner is also offering to sell shares for purposes other than to fund the redemption of Offering Units and to pay related expenses, then those other shares may in
the Special Limited Partner’s sole discretion be given priority over any shares to be sold in the Stock Offering Funding, and any shares to be sold in the Stock Offering Funding shall be removed from the offering prior to removing shares the
proceeds of which would be used for other purposes of the Special Limited Partners. No Offered Shares excluded from the underwriting by reason of the managing underwriter’s or placement agent’s marketing limitation shall be included in
such offering.

 Section 15.2 Addresses and Notice. Any notice, demand, request or report required or
permitted to be given or made to a Partner or Assignee under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given or made when delivered in person or when sent by first class United States mail or by other means of written or electronic
communication (including by telecopy, facsimile, electronic mail or commercial courier service) to the Partner, or Assignee at the address for such Partner set forth in the Register, or such other address of which the Partner shall notify the
General Partner in accordance with this Section 15.2. 
 Section 15.3 Titles and Captions. All article or Section
titles or captions in this Agreement are for convenience only. They shall not be deemed part of this Agreement and in no way define, limit, extend or describe the scope or intent of any provisions hereof. Except as specifically provided otherwise,
references to “Articles” or “Sections” are to Articles and Sections of this Agreement. 
 Section 15.4
Pronouns and Plurals. Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and

 Section
15.6 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. 

Section 15.7 Waiver. 
 A. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall
constitute waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition. 
 B. The restrictions, conditions and
other limitations on the rights and benefits of the Limited Partners contained in this Agreement, and the duties, covenants and other requirements of performance or notice by the Limited Partners, are for the benefit of the Partnership and, except
for an obligation to pay money to the Partnership, may be waived or relinquished by the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, on behalf of the Partnership in one or more instances from time to time and at any time; provided,
however, that any such waiver or relinquishment may not be made if it would have the effect of (i) creating liability for any other Limited Partner, (ii) causing the Partnership to cease to qualify as a limited partnership,
(iii) reducing the amount of cash otherwise distributable to the Limited Partners (other than any such reduction that affects all of the Limited Partners holding the same class or series of Partnership Units on a uniform or pro rata basis, if
approved by a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners holding such class or series of Partnership Units), (iv) resulting in the classification of the Partnership as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation or
(v) violating the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state “blue sky” or other securities laws; provided, further, that any waiver relating to compliance with the Ownership Limit or other restrictions in the Charter
shall be made and shall be effective only as provided in the Charter. 
 Section 15.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts, all of which together shall constitute one agreement binding on all the parties hereto, notwithstanding that all such parties are not signatories to the original or the same counterpart. Each party shall become bound by
this Agreement immediately upon affixing its signature hereto.

 Section 15.9 Applicable Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. 

A. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to
the principles of conflicts of law. In the event of a conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any non-mandatory provision of the Act, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and take precedence. 

B. Each Partner hereby (i) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of Maryland
(collectively, the “Maryland Courts”), with respect to any dispute arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby to the extent such courts would have subject matter jurisdiction with respect to such dispute,
(ii) irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of any of the Maryland Courts, that its property is exempt or immune
from attachment or execution, that the action is brought in an inconvenient forum, or that the venue of the action is improper, (iii) agrees that notice or the service of process in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to
this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be properly served or delivered if delivered to such Partner at such Partner’s last known address as set forth in the Partnership’s books and records, and (iv) IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 
 Section 15.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains all of the understandings and agreements between and among the Partners with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the rights,
interests and obligations of the Partners with respect to the Partnership. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any Partnership Unit Designation to the contrary, including any provisions relating to amending this Agreement, the
Partners hereby acknowledge and agree that the General Partner, without the approval of any Limited Partner, may enter into side letters or similar written agreements with Limited Partners that are not Affiliates of the General Partner or the
Special Limited Partner, executed contemporaneously with the admission of such Limited Partner to the Partnership, which may have the effect of establishing rights under, or altering or supplementing the terms of, this Agreement or any Partnership
Unit Designation, as negotiated with such Limited Partner and which the General Partner in its sole discretion deems necessary, desirable or appropriate. The parties hereto agree that any terms, conditions or provisions contained in such side
letters or similar written agreements with a Limited Partner shall govern with respect to such Limited Partner notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement. 
 Section 15.11 Invalidity of Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions contained herein shall not be affected thereby. 
 Section 15.12 Limitation to Preserve REIT Status.
Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, with respect to any period in which the Special Limited Partner has elected to be treated as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, to the extent that the amount paid, credited, distributed or
reimbursed by the Partnership to any REIT Partner or its officers, directors, employees or agents, whether as a reimbursement, fee, expense or indemnity (a “REIT Payment”), would constitute gross income to the REIT Partner for
purposes of Code Section 856(c)(2) or Code Section 856(c)(3), then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the amount of such REIT Payments, as selected by the General Partner in its discretion from among items of potential
distribution, reimbursement, fees, expenses and indemnities, shall be reduced for any Partnership Year so that the REIT Payments, as so reduced, for or with respect to such REIT Partner shall not exceed the lesser of: 

(i) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) four and nine-tenths percent (4.9%) of the REIT Partner’s
total gross income (but excluding the amount of any REIT Payments) for the Partnership Year that is described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(2) over (b) the amount of gross income (within the meaning of
Code Section 856(c)(2)) derived by the REIT Partner from sources other than those described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(2) (but not including the amount of any REIT Payments); or 

  
 62 









 (ii) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) twenty-four percent
(24%) of the REIT Partner’s total gross income (but excluding the amount of any REIT Payments) for the Partnership Year that is described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(3) over (b) the amount of
gross income (within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(3)) derived by the REIT Partner from sources other than those described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(3) (but not including the amount of any REIT
Payments); 
 provided, however, that REIT Payments in excess of the amounts set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above may
be made if the General Partner, as a condition precedent, obtains an opinion of tax counsel that the receipt of such excess amounts should not adversely affect the REIT Partner’s ability to qualify as a REIT. To the extent that REIT Payments
may not be made in a Partnership Year as a consequence of the limitations set forth in this Section 15.12, such REIT Payments shall carry over and shall be treated as arising in the following Partnership Year if such carry over does not
adversely affect the REIT Partner’s ability to qualify as a REIT, provided, however, that any such REIT Payment shall not be carried over more than three Partnership Years, and any such remaining payments shall no longer be due and payable. The
purpose of the limitations contained in this Section 15.12 is to prevent any REIT Partner from failing to qualify as a REIT under the Code by reason of such REIT Partner’s share of items, including distributions, reimbursements, fees,
expenses or indemnities, receivable directly or indirectly from the Partnership, and this Section 15.12 shall be interpreted and applied to effectuate such purpose. 
 Section 15.13 REIT Restrictions. Each Affiliated REIT is a REIT and is subject to the provisions of Sections 856 through and including 860 of the Code. So long as an Affiliated REIT owns,
directly or indirectly, any interest in the Partnership, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement: 
 (i) any services that would otherwise cause any rents from a lease to be excluded from treatment as rents from real property pursuant to Section 856(d)(2)(C) of the Code shall be provided by either
(1) an independent contractor (as described in Section 856(d)(3) of the Code) with respect to such Affiliated REIT and from whom neither the Partnership nor such Affiliated REIT derives or receives any income or (2) a taxable REIT
subsidiary of such Affiliated REIT as described in Section 856(l) of the Code; 
 (ii) except for a taxable
REIT subsidiary of an Affiliated REIT, the Partnership shall not own, directly or indirectly or by attribution (in accordance with attribution rules referred to in Section 856(d)(5) of the Code), in the aggregate more than 10% of the total
value of all classes of stock or more than 10% of the total voting power (or, with respect to any such person which is not a corporation, an interest of 10% or more in the assets or net profits of such person) of a lessee or sublessee of all or any
part of the Property or of any other assets of the Partnership except in each case with the specific written approval of each Affiliated REIT; 
 (iii) except for securities of a taxable REIT subsidiary of an Affiliated REIT, the Partnership shall not own or acquire, directly or indirectly or by attribution, more than 10% of the total value or the
total voting power of the outstanding securities of any issuer or own any other asset (including a security) which would cause the Affiliated REIT to fail the asset test of Section 856(c)(4)(B) of the Code; and 

(iv) leases entered into by the Partnership or any of its Subsidiary partnerships, limited partnerships, and limited
liability companies shall provide for rents that qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code with respect to each Affiliated REIT. 

Section 15.14 No Partition. No Partner nor any successor-in-interest to a Partner shall have the right while this Agreement
remains in effect to have any property of the Partnership partitioned, or to file a complaint or institute any proceeding at law or in equity to have such property of the Partnership partitioned, and each Partner, on behalf of itself and its
successors and assigns hereby waives any such right. It is the intention of the Partners that the rights of the parties hereto and their successors-in-interest to Partnership property, as among themselves, shall be governed by the terms of this
Agreement, and that the rights of the Partners and their respective successors-in-interest shall be subject to the limitations and restrictions as set forth in this Agreement. 

  
 63 









 Section 15.15 No Third-Party Rights Created Hereby. The provisions of this Agreement
are solely for the purpose of defining the interests of the Holders, inter se; and no other person, firm or entity (i.e., a party who is not a signatory hereto or a permitted successor to such signatory hereto) shall have any right,
power, title or interest by way of subrogation or otherwise, in and to the rights, powers, title and provisions of this Agreement. For clarity, CBI, although not a Partner as of the date hereof, is a party to this Agreement and shall have the right,
power, title and interest in and to all rights, powers, title and provisions of this Agreement. No creditor or other third party having dealings with the Partnership (other than as expressly set forth herein with respect to Indemnitees) shall have
the right to enforce the right or obligation of any Partner to make Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership or to pursue any other right or remedy hereunder or at law or in equity. None of the rights or obligations of the Partners herein
set forth to make Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership shall be deemed an asset of the Partnership for any purpose by any creditor or other third party, nor may any such rights or obligations be sold, Transferred or assigned by the
Partnership or pledged or encumbered by the Partnership to secure any debt or other obligation of the Partnership or any of the Partners. 
 Section 15.16 No Rights as Stockholders. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring upon the Holders of Partnership Units any rights whatsoever as stockholders of the
Special Limited Partner, including without limitation any right to receive dividends or other distributions made to stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or to vote or to consent or receive notice as stockholders in respect of any meeting of
stockholders for the election of directors of the Special Limited Partner or any other matter.

 EXHIBIT A: EXAMPLES REGARDING ADJUSTMENT FACTOR 

For purposes of the following examples, it is assumed that (a) the Adjustment Factor in effect on December 31, 2012 is 1.0 and (b) on
January 1, 2013 (the “Partnership Record Date” for purposes of these examples), prior to the events described in the examples, there are 100 REIT Shares issued and outstanding. 

Example 1  
 On the Partnership Record
Date, the Special Limited Partner declares a dividend on its outstanding REIT Shares in REIT Shares. The amount of the dividend is one REIT Share paid in respect of each REIT Share owned. Pursuant to Paragraph (i) of the definition of
“Adjustment Factor,” the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted on the Partnership Record Date, effective immediately after the stock dividend is declared, as follows: 
 1.0 * 200/100 =
2.0                                         
                
 Accordingly, the Adjustment Factor after the stock
dividend is declared is 2.0. 
 Example 2  
 On the Partnership Record Date, the Special Limited Partner distributes options to purchase REIT Shares to all holders of its REIT Shares. The amount of the distribution is one option to acquire one REIT
Share in respect of each REIT Share owned. The strike price is $4.00 a share. The Value of a REIT Share on the Partnership Record Date is $5.00 per share. Pursuant to Paragraph (ii) of the definition of “Adjustment Factor,” the
Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted on the Partnership Record Date, effective immediately after the options are distributed, as follows: 
 1.0 * (100 + 100)/(100 + [100 * $4.00/$5.00]) = 1.1111 
 Accordingly, the Adjustment Factor after
the options are distributed is 1.1111. If the options expire or become no longer exercisable, then the retroactive adjustment specified in Paragraph (ii) of the definition of “Adjustment Factor” shall apply. 

Example 3 
 On the Partnership Record
Date, the Special Limited Partner distributes assets to all holders of its REIT Shares. The amount of the distribution is one asset with a fair market value (as determined by the General Partner) of $1.00 in respect of each REIT Share owned. It is
also assumed that the assets do not relate to assets received by the General Partner pursuant to a pro rata distribution by the Partnership. The Value of a REIT Share on the Partnership Record Date is $5.00 a share. Pursuant to Paragraph
(iii) of the definition of “Adjustment Factor,” the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted on the Partnership Record Date, effective immediately after the assets are distributed, as follows: 

1.0 * $5.00/($5.00 - $1.00) = 1.25 
 Accordingly, the Adjustment Factor after the assets are distributed is 1.25.
