acknowledge, record and file, at the expense of the Partnership, the

BUSINESS OF THE PARTNERSHIP


The purpose and nature of the business to be conducted
by the Partnership is (a) to conduct any business that may be lawfully
conducted by a limited partnership organized pursuant to the Act, provided,
however, that such business shall be limited to and conducted in such a manner
as to permit the General Partner at all times to qualify as a REIT, unless the
General Partner otherwise ceases to qualify as a REIT, (b) to enter into any
partnership, joint venture or other similar arrangement to engage in any of the
foregoing or the ownership of interests in any entity engaged in any of the
foregoing, and (c) to do anything necessary or incidental to the
foregoing.  In connection with the
foregoing, and without limiting the Company’s right in its sole and absolute
discretion to cease qualifying as a REIT, the Partners acknowledge that the
Company’s current status as a REIT and the avoidance of income and excise taxes
on the Company inures to the benefit of all the Partners and not solely to the
Company and the General Partner. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Limited Partners agree that the
Company may terminate its status as a REIT under the Code at any time to the
full extent permitted under its Articles of Incorporation.  The General Partner shall be empowered to do
any and all acts and things necessary or prudent to ensure that the Partnership
will not be classified as a “publicly traded partnership” for purposes of
Section 7704 of the Code.

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND ACCOUNTS


4.01         Capital
Contributions.  As of January 1, 2007, the parties
hereto, or their respective predecessors in interest as the case may be, have
made Capital Contributions to the Partnership in exchange for the number of
Partnership Units (estimated as of January 1, 2007 with respect to the
Original Limited Partner

only) set
forth opposite their names on Exhibit A. 
After the Company has filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 with the Commission, the General Partner
shall, without the approval of any other Partner, attach an amended Exhibit
A to this Agreement to reflect the actual number of Partnership Units held
by the Original Limited Partner as of January 1, 2007.  At such time as Additional Limited Partners
are admitted to the Partnership, each shall make Capital Contributions as set
forth opposite their names on Exhibit A, as it may be amended from time
to time.  Exhibit A shall be
deemed amended upon, and the General Partner may, without the approval of any
other Partner, attach an amended Exhibit A to this Agreement to reflect:
(a) the issuance of Partnership Units issued to Additional Limited Partners or
to any existing Limited Partner pursuant to Section 4.02 (including the
Original Limited Partner), (b) any Partnership Units purchased or redeemed
pursuant to Section 6.10, (c) any redemption or purchase of Partnership Units
by the Partnership or the Company by reason of the exercise by a Limited
Partner of the Exchange Right, (d) any purchase by the Company (or any of its
Affiliates) of Partnership Units pursuant to the Call Right and (e) any changes
required pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 4.01.


4.02         Additional Capital Contributions and Issuances of
Additional Partnership Interests.  Except as provided
in this Section 4.02 or in Section 4.03, the Partners shall have no right or
obligation to make any additional Capital Contributions or loans to the
Partnership.  The General Partner may
contribute additional capital to the Partnership, from time to time, and
receive additional Partnership Units in respect thereof in the manner
contemplated by this Section 4.02.


(a)           Issuances
of Additional Partnership Interests.


(i)            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) or to other Persons for
such consideration and on such terms and conditions as shall be established by
the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, all without the
approval of any Limited Partners.  Any
additional Partnership Interests issued thereby may be issued in one or more
classes, or one or more series of any of such classes, with such designations,
preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights,
powers and duties, including rights, powers and duties senior to Limited
Partnership Interests, all as shall be determined by the General Partner in its
sole and absolute discretion and without the approval of any Limited Partner,
subject to Texas law, including, without limitation, (A) the allocations of
items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and credit to each such
class or series of Partnership Interests; (B) the right of each such class
or series of Partnership Interests to share in Partnership distributions; and
(C) the rights of each such class or series of Partnership Interests upon
dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership; provided, however, that no
additional Partnership Interests shall be issued to the General Partner or the
Original Limited Partner unless:


(1)           the
additional Partnership Interests are issued in connection with an issuance of
REIT Shares or other interests in, the Company, which shares or interests have
designations, preferences and other rights such that the economic interests are
substantially similar to the designations, preferences and other rights of the
additional Partnership Interests issued to the General Partner or Original
Limited Partner by the Partnership in accordance with this Section 4.02, and
the General Partner, on its own or with the Original Limited Partner, shall
make a Capital Contribution to the Partnership in an amount equal to the
aggregate proceeds raised in connection with the issuance of such shares of
stock of or other interests in the Company;


(2)           the
additional Partnership Interests are issued in exchange for property or other
assets owned by the General Partner or Original Limited Partner with a fair
market value, 



 12
 






 



as determined by the General Partner, in good faith,
equal to the value of the Partnership Interests; or


(3)           the
additional Partnership Interests are issued to all Partners in proportion to
their respective Percentage Interests.


Without limiting the foregoing, the General Partner is
expressly authorized to cause the Partnership to issue Partnership Units for
less than fair market value, so long as the General Partner concludes in good
faith that such issuance is in the best interests of the Company and the
Partnership.


(ii)           Issuance of Additional Securities.  The Company shall not issue any additional
REIT Shares (other than REIT Shares issued in connection with an exchange made
pursuant to Section 8.05 hereof) or rights, options, warrants or convertible or
exchangeable securities containing the right to subscribe for or purchase REIT
Shares (collectively, “Additional Securities”) other than to all holders of
REIT Shares or pursuant to an Offering, unless (A) the General Partner shall
cause the Partnership to issue to the General Partner (or to the General
Partner and/or the Original Limited Partner), as the General Partner may
designate, Partnership Interests or rights, options, warrants or convertible or
exchangeable securities of the Partnership having designations, preferences and
other rights such that the economic interests are substantially similar to
those of the Additional Securities, and (B) the Company through the General
Partner (or the General Partner and/or the Original Limited Partner)
contributes the proceeds from the issuance of such Additional Securities and
from any exercise of rights contained in such Additional Securities to the
Partnership; provided, however, that the Company is allowed to issue Additional
Securities in connection with an acquisition of a Property or other asset to be
held directly by the General Partner, but if and only if, such direct
acquisition and issuance of Additional Securities have been approved and
determined to be in the best interests of the Company and the Partnership by a
majority of the Independent Directors and Limited Partners holding more than
50% of the Unaffiliated Percentage Interests, if any.  Without limiting the foregoing, the General
Partner is expressly authorized to issue Additional Securities for less than
fair market value, and to cause the Partnership to issue to the General Partner
(or to the General Partner and/or the Original Limited Partner) corresponding
Partnership Interests, so long as (1) the Company concludes in good faith that
such issuance is in the best interests of the Company and the Partnership,
including without limitation, the issuance of REIT Shares and corresponding
Partnership Units pursuant to an employee share purchase plan providing for
employee purchases of REIT Shares at a discount from fair market value or
employee stock options that have an exercise price that is less than the fair
market value of the REIT Shares, either at the time of issuance or at the time
of exercise, and (2) the Company through the General Partner (or the General
Partner and/or the Original Limited Partner) contributes all proceeds from such
issuance to the Partnership.


(b)           Certain
Deemed Contributions of Proceeds of Issuance of REIT Shares.  In connection with any and all issuances of
REIT Shares, the Company through the General Partner (or the General Partner
and/or the Original Limited Partner) shall make Capital Contributions to the
Partnership of the proceeds therefrom, provided, that if the proceeds actually
received and contributed by the Company are less than the gross proceeds of
such issuance as a result of any underwriter’s discount or other fees or
expenses paid or incurred in connection with such issuance, then the General
Partner (or the General Partner together with the Original Limited Partner, as
applicable) shall be deemed to have made Capital Contributions to the
Partnership in the aggregate amount of the gross proceeds of such issuance and
the Partnership shall be deemed simultaneously to have paid such offering
expenses in accordance with Section 6.05 hereof and in connection with the
required issuance of additional Partnership Units for such Capital
Contributions pursuant to Section 4.02(a) hereof.



 13
 






 



(c)           Original
Limited Partner Deemed Contributions. 
In the event the Original Limited Partner elects to defer any
distribution of cash hereunder to be made to it pursuant to Section 5.02(a)
hereof, then such amount shall be deemed to be an additional contribution of
capital to the Partnership by the Original Limited Partner, which shall be
added to the Original Limited Partner’s Capital Contribution to the Partnership
and the Original Limited Partner’s Capital Account as established and
maintained under Section 4.04 hereof.


4.03         Additional Funding.  If the
General Partner determines that it is in the best interests of the Partnership
to provide for additional Partnership funds (“Additional
Funds”) for any Partnership purpose, the General Partner may (a)
cause the Partnership to obtain such funds from outside borrowings, or (b)
elect to have the General Partner or any of its Affiliates provide such
Additional Funds to the Partnership through loans or otherwise.


4.04         Capital Accounts.  A separate
capital account (a “Capital Account”)
shall be established and maintained for each Partner in accordance with
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). 
If (a) a new or existing Partner acquires an additional Partnership
Interest in exchange for more than a de minimis Capital Contribution, (b) the
Partnership distributes to a Partner more than a de minimis amount of
Partnership property as consideration for the redemption of a Partnership
Interest, or (c) the Partnership is liquidated within the meaning of
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), the General Partner shall revalue the
property of the Partnership to its fair market value (as determined by the
General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, and taking into account
Section 7701(g) of the Code) in accordance with Regulations
Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(f).  When
the Partnership’s property is revalued by the General Partner, the Capital
Accounts of the Partners shall be adjusted in accordance with Regulations
Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) and (g), which generally require such
Capital Accounts to be adjusted to reflect the manner in which the unrealized
gain or loss inherent in such property (that has not been reflected in the
Capital Accounts previously) would be allocated among the Partners pursuant to
Section 5.01 hereof if there were a taxable disposition of such property
for its fair market value (as determined by the General Partner, in its sole
and absolute discretion, and taking into account Section 7701(g) of the
Code) on the date of the revaluation.


4.05         Percentage Interests.  If the
number of outstanding Partnership Units increases or decreases during a taxable
year, each Partner’s Percentage Interest shall be adjusted by the General
Partner effective as of the date of each such increase or decrease to a
percentage equal to the number of Partnership Units held by such Partner
divided by the aggregate number of Partnership Units outstanding after giving
effect to such increase or decrease.  In
such event, the General Partner shall revalue the property of the Partnership and
the Capital Account for each Partner shall be adjusted as set forth in Section
4.04 hereof.  If the Partners’ Percentage
Interests are adjusted pursuant to this Section 4.05, the Profit and Loss for
the taxable year in which the adjustment occurs shall be prorated between the
part of the year ending on the day when the Partnership’s property is revalued
by the General Partner and the part of the year beginning on the following day
and, as so divided, shall be allocated to the Partners based on their
Percentage Interests before adjustment, and their adjusted Percentage
Interests, respectively, either (a) as if the taxable year had ended on the
date of the adjustment or (b) based on the number of days in each part.  The General Partner, in its sole and absolute
discretion, shall determine which method shall be used to allocate Profit and
Loss for the taxable year in which an adjustment occurs, as may be required or
permitted under Section 706 of the Code.


4.06         No Interest on Contributions.  No
Partner shall be entitled to interest on its Capital Contribution, except as
specifically provided in this Agreement.


4.07         Return of Capital Contributions.  No
Partner shall be entitled to withdraw any part of its Capital Contribution or
its Capital Account or to receive any distribution from the Partnership, except
as specifically provided in this Agreement. 
Except as otherwise provided herein, there shall be no obligation 



 14
 






 



to return to any Partner or withdrawn Partner any part of such Partner’s
Capital Contribution for so long as the Partnership continues in existence.


4.08         No Third-Party Beneficiary.  No
creditor or other third party having dealings with the Partnership shall have
the right to enforce the right or obligation of any Partner to make Capital
Contributions or loans or to pursue any other right or remedy hereunder or at
law or in equity, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of this
Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of, and may be enforced solely by,
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.  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 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 of any
of the Partners.  In addition, it is the
intent of the parties hereto that no distribution to any Limited Partner shall
be deemed a return of money or other property in violation of the Act.  However, if any court of competent
jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any
Limited Partner is obligated to return such money or property, such obligation
shall be the obligation of such Limited Partner and not of the General
Partner.  Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, a deficit Capital Account of a Partner shall not be deemed to
be a liability of such Partner nor an asset or property of the Partnership.


ARTICLE V

PROFIT AND LOSS; DISTRIBUTIONS


5.01         Allocation of Profit and Loss.


(a)           After
giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 5.01(b), (c) and
(d), Profit for each fiscal year of the Partnership shall be allocated as
follows: (i) first to the Partners, pro rata, in accordance with and in
proportion to their respective Partnership Interests, in amounts equal to the
amount of cash distributed to the Partners pursuant to Section 5.02(a) hereof with
respect to such fiscal year; (ii) second, to the extent the amount of Profit
for such fiscal year exceeds the amount of cash distributed to the Partners
pursuant to Section 5.02(a) hereof, such excess shall be allocated to the
General Partner and the Limited Partners in amounts and in proportion to the
cumulative Loss allocated to the General Partner pursuant to clause (y) of this
Section 5.01(a) and the cumulative Loss allocated to the Limited Partners
pursuant to clause (x) of this Section 5.01(a), respectively; and (iii)
finally, the balance, if any, of Profit shall be allocated to the Partners in
accordance with and in proportion to their respective Percentage
Interests.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, however, it is the intent of the Partners that allocations of Profit
to the Limited Partners be such that the amount of Profit allocated to each
Limited Partner be equal to the amount of income that would have been allocated
to such Limited Partner with respect to the applicable fiscal period if such Limited
Partner had owned REIT Shares equal in number to the number of Partnership
Units owned by such Limited Partner during such fiscal period, and if, for any
reason, the foregoing allocations of Profit result in any material variation
from this concept, Profit shall be allocated to each Limited Partner in an
amount equal to the aggregate amount of income that would have been allocated
to such Limited Partner with respect to the applicable fiscal period if such
Limited Partner had owned REIT Shares equal in number to the number of
Partnership Units owned by such Limited Partner during such fiscal period.  After giving effect to the special
allocations set forth in Sections 5.01(b), (c) and (d), Loss for a fiscal year
of the Partnership shall be allocated as follows: (w) first, to the Partners,
pro rata, in accordance with and in proportion to their respective Partnership
Interests, until the cumulative Loss allocated to each Partner under this
clause (w) equals the cumulative Profit allocated to each Partner under clause
(ii) of this Section 5.01(a); (x) second, to the Limited Partners in an amount
equal to each such Limited Partner’s Capital Account balance prior to the
allocation made under this clause (x); (y) third, to the General Partner in an
amount equal to the General Partner’s Capital Account balance prior to the
allocation made under this clause (y); and (z) fourth, to the General Partner
to the extent that any further allocation of Loss to Limited Partners would
result in any such Limited Partners having a deficit balance in their Capital
Accounts.



 15
 






 



(b)           Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary herein, (i) any expense of the Partnership that
is a “nonrecourse deduction” within the meaning of Regulations Section
1.704-2(b)(1) shall be allocated in accordance with the Partners’ respective
Percentage Interests, (ii) any expense of the Partnership that is a “partner
nonrecourse deduction” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(2)
shall be allocated to the Partner that bears the “economic risk of loss” of
such deduction in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1), (iii) if
there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain within the meaning of
Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(1) for any Partnership taxable year, then,
subject to the exceptions set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(2), (3),
(4) and (5), items of gain and income shall be allocated among the Partners in
accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and the ordering rules
contained in Regulations Section 1.704-2(j), and (iv) if there is a net
decrease in Partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain within the meaning of
Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) for any Partnership taxable year,
then, subject to the exceptions set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-2(g),
items of gain and income shall be allocated among the Partners, in accordance
with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and the ordering rules contained
in Regulations Section 1.704-2(j).  A
Partner’s “interest in partnership profits” for purposes of determining its
share of the nonrecourse liabilities of the Partnership within the meaning of
Regulations Section 1.752- 3(a)(3) shall be such Partner’s Percentage Interest.


(c)           If
a Partner receives in any taxable year an adjustment, allocation, or
distribution described in subparagraphs (4), (5), or (6) of Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) that causes or increases a deficit balance in such Partner’s
Capital Account that exceeds the sum of such Partner’s shares of Partnership
Minimum Gain and Partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain, as determined in
accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i), such Partner
shall be allocated specially for such taxable year (and, if necessary, later
taxable years) items of income and gain in an amount and manner sufficient to
eliminate such deficit Capital Account balance as quickly as possible as
provided in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).  After the occurrence of an allocation of
income or gain to a Partner in accordance with this Section 5.01(c), to the extent
permitted by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b), items of expense or loss shall be
allocated to such Partner in an amount necessary to offset the income or gain
previously allocated to such Partner under this Section 5.01(c).


(d)           Loss
shall not be allocated to a Limited Partner to the extent that such allocation
would cause a deficit in such Partner’s Capital Account (after reduction to
reflect the items described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5)
and (6)) to exceed the sum of such Partner’s shares of Partnership Minimum Gain
and Partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain. 
Any Loss in excess of that limitation shall be allocated to the General
Partner.  After the occurrence of an
allocation of Loss to the General Partner in accordance with this Section
5.01(d), to the extent permitted by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b), Profit
shall be allocated to the General Partner in an amount necessary to offset the
Loss previously allocated to the General Partner under this Section 5.01(d).


(e)           If
a Partner transfers any part or all of its Partnership Interest, the
distributive shares of the various items of Profit and Loss allocable among the
Partners during such fiscal year of the Partnership shall be allocated between
the transferor and the transferee Partner either (i) as if the Partnership’s
fiscal year had ended on the date of the transfer, or (ii) based on the number
of days of such fiscal year that each was a Partner without regard to the
results of Partnership activities in the respective portions of such fiscal
year in which the transferor and the transferee were Partners.  The General Partner, in its sole and absolute
discretion, shall determine which method shall be used to allocate the
distributive shares of the various items of Profit and Loss between the
transferor and the transferee Partner.


(f)            “Profit” and “Loss” and any
items of income, gain, expense, or loss referred to in this Agreement shall be
determined in accordance with federal income tax accounting principles, as
modified by Regulations Section 1.704-(b)(2)(iv), except that Profit and Loss
shall not include items of income, gain and expense that are specially
allocated pursuant to Sections 5.01(b), 5.01(c), or 5.01(d).  All allocations of income, Profit, gain,
Loss, and expense (and all items contained therein) for federal income 



 16
 






 



tax purposes shall be
identical to all allocations of such items set forth in this Section 5.01,
except as otherwise required by Section 704(c) of the Code and Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(4).  The General
Partner shall have the authority, in its sole and absolute discretion and
without the need for consent from any Partner, to elect the method or methods
to be used by the Partnership for allocating items of income, gain, expense and
deductions as required by Section 704(c) of the Code, including election of a
method that may result in one or more Partners receiving or being allocated a
disproportionately larger share of items of Partnership income, gain, expense
or deduction, and any such election shall be binding on all Partners.


(g)           If
the General Partner determines that is advantageous to the business of the
Partnership to amend the allocation provisions of this Agreement so as to
permit the Partnership to avoid the characterization of Partnership income
allocable to various qualified plans, IRAs and other entities which are exempt
from federal income taxation (“Tax Exempt
Partners”) as constituting Unrelated Business Taxable Income (“UBTI”) within the meaning of the Code,
specifically including, but not limited to, amendments to satisfy the so-called
“fractions rule” contained in Code Section 514(c)(9), the General Partner
is authorized, in its discretion, to amend this Agreement so as to allocate
income, gain, loss, deduction or credit (or items thereof) arising in any year
differently than as provided for in this Section if, and to the extent, that
such amendments will achieve such result or otherwise permit the avoidance of
characterization of Partnership income as UBTI to Tax Exempt Partners.  Any allocation made pursuant to this
Section 5.01(g) shall be deemed to be a complete substitute for any
allocation otherwise provided for in this Agreement, and no further amendment
of this Agreement or approval by any Limited Partner shall be required to
effectuate such allocation.  In making
any such allocations under this Section 5.01(g) (“New Allocations”), the General Partner is
authorized to act in reliance upon advice of counsel to the Partnership or the
Partnership’s regular certified public accountants that, in their opinion,
after examining the relevant provisions of the Code and any current or future
proposed or final Treasury Regulations thereunder, the New Allocation will
achieve the intended result of this Section 5.01(g).


New Allocations made by the General Partner in
reliance upon the advice of counsel or accountants as described above shall be
deemed to be made in the best interests of the Partnership and all of the
Partners, and any such New Allocations shall not give rise to any claim or
cause of action by any Partner against the Partnership or any General
Partner.  Nothing herein shall require or
obligate the General Partner, by implication or otherwise, to make any such
amendments or undertake any such action.


5.02         Distributions of Cash.


(a)           The
Partnership shall distribute cash on a quarterly (or, at the election of the
General Partner, more frequent) basis, in an amount determined by the General
Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, to the Partners who are Partners
on the Partnership Record Date with respect to such quarter (or other
distribution period) in the following manner: (i) first, to the General Partner
in an amount equal to the GP Minimum Return with respect to the fiscal year of
the General Partner; (ii) second, to the Limited Partners pro rata among them
in proportion to the their respective Unpaid Return, if any, owing to each such
Limited Partners with respect to prior fiscal years, in an amount equal to
their respective Unpaid Return for such prior fiscal years owing to each such
Limited Partner; (iii) third, after the establishment of reasonable cash
reserves to meet REIT Expenses and other obligations of the Partnership, as
determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner, to the
General Partner and the Limited Partners in such aggregate amount as may be
determined by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion to be
allocated among the General Partner and the Limited Partners such that each
Limited Partner will receive an amount equal to its LP Return for such fiscal
year; and (iv) finally, to the Partners in accordance with and in
proportion to their respective Percentage Interests; provided, however, that if
a new or existing Partner acquires an additional Partnership Interest in exchange
for a Capital Contribution on any date other than a Partnership Record Date,
the cash distribution attributable to such additional Partnership Interest
relating to the Partnership Record Date 



 17
 






 



next following the
issuance of such additional Partnership Interest shall be reduced to the
proportion thereof which equals (i) the number of days that such additional
Partnership Interest is held by such Partner divided by (ii) the number of days
between such Partnership Record Date and the immediately preceding Partnership
Record Date.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, however, the Original Limited Partner may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, elect to defer any distribution to be made to it, in which case the
amount so deferred shall be deemed to be an additional Capital Contribution
made on behalf of the Original Limited Partner under Section 4.02(c) hereof, to
be distributed to the Original Limited Partner upon liquidation of the
Partnership under Section 5.06 hereof, or at such time as the Original Limited
Partner may otherwise be allowed to withdraw from the Partnership after the
Transfer Restriction Date.


(b)           Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner is authorized to
take any action that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to cause the
Partnership to comply with any withholding requirements established under the
Code or any other federal, state or local law including, without limitation,
the requirements of Sections 1441, 1442, 1445 and 1446 of the Code.  To the extent that the Partnership is
required to withhold and pay over to any taxing authority any amount resulting
from the allocation or distribution of income to a Partner or its assignee
(including by reason of Section 1446 of the Code), either (i) if the actual amount
to be distributed to the Partner or assignee equals or exceeds the amount
required to be withheld by the Partnership, the amount withheld shall be
treated as a distribution of cash in the amount of such withholding to such
Partner or assignee, or (ii) if the actual amount to be distributed to the
Partner or assignee is less than the amount required to be withheld by the
Partnership, the amount required to be withheld shall be treated as a loan (a “Partnership Loan”) from the Partnership to the Partner or
assignee on the day the Partnership pays over such amount to a taxing
authority.  A Partnership Loan shall be
repaid through withholding by the Partnership with respect to subsequent
distributions to the applicable Partner or assignee.  In the event that a Limited Partner (a “Defaulting Limited Partner”) fails to pay any amount owed to
the Partnership with respect to the Partnership Loan within 15 days after
demand for payment thereof is made by the Partnership on the Limited Partner,
the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect to make the
payment to the Partnership on behalf of such Defaulting Limited Partner.  In such event, on the date of payment, the
General Partner shall be deemed to have extended a loan (a “General Partner Loan”) to the Defaulting Limited Partner in
the amount of the payment made by the General Partner and shall succeed to all
rights and remedies of the Partnership against the Defaulting Limited Partner
as to that amount.  Without limitation,
the General Partner shall have the right to receive any distributions that
otherwise would be made by the Partnership to the Defaulting Limited Partner
until such time as the General Partner Loan has been paid in full, and any such
distributions so received by the General Partner shall be treated as having
been received by the Defaulting Limited Partner and immediately paid to the
General Partner.  Any amounts treated as
a Partnership Loan or a General Partner Loan pursuant to this Section 5.02(b)
shall bear interest at the lesser of (A) 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, or (B) the maximum lawful rate of
interest on such obligation, such interest to accrue from the date the
Partnership or the General Partner, as applicable, is deemed to extend the loan
until such loan is repaid in full.


(c)           To
the extent not utilized for expenses of the Partnership or for investment in
additional Properties, the General Partner may, in its discretion, cause the
Partnership to distribute Net Capital Proceeds in such amount as shall be
determined by the General Partner in its discretion in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5.02(a) hereof.


(d)           In
no event may a Partner receive a distribution of cash with respect to a
Partnership Unit if such Partner is entitled to receive a cash dividend as the
holder of record of a REIT Share for which all or part of such Partnership Unit
has been or will be exchanged, and the Unpaid Return with respect to such
Partnership Unit shall be deemed to be reduced by the amount of any such cash
dividend.


 



 18














 


5.03         REIT Distribution Requirements.  The
General Partner shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the Partnership to
distribute amounts sufficient to enable the Company to pay stockholder
dividends that will allow the Company to (a) meet its distribution requirement
for qualification as a REIT as set forth in Section 857 of the Code and (b)
avoid any federal income or excise tax liability imposed by the Code.


5.04         No Right to Distributions in Kind.  No
Partner shall be entitled to demand property other than cash in connection with
any distributions by the Partnership.


5.05         Limitations on Return of Capital Contributions.  Notwithstanding
any of the provisions of this Article V, no Partner shall have the right to
receive and the General Partner shall not have the right to make a distribution
that includes a return of all or part of a Partner’s Capital Contributions,
unless after giving effect to the return of a Capital Contribution, the sum of
all Partnership liabilities, other than the liabilities to a Partner for the
return of its Capital Contribution, does not exceed the fair market value of
the Partnership’s assets.


5.06         Distributions Upon Liquidation.  Upon
liquidation of the Partnership, after payment of, or adequate provision for,
debts and obligations of the Partnership, including any Partner loans, any
remaining assets of the Partnership shall be distributed to all Partners with
positive Capital Accounts in accordance with their respective positive Capital
Account balances.  For purposes of the
preceding sentence, the Capital Account of each Partner shall be determined
after all adjustments made in accordance with Sections 5.01 and 5.02 resulting
from Partnership operations and from all sales and dispositions of all or any
part of the Partnership’s assets have been made.  To the extent deemed advisable by the General
Partner, appropriate arrangements (including the use of a liquidating trust)
may be made to assure that adequate funds are available to pay any contingent
debts or obligations.


5.07         Substantial
Economic Effect.  It is the intent of the Partners
that the allocations of Profit and Loss under this Agreement have substantial
economic effect (or be consistent with the Partners’ interests in the
Partnership in the case of the allocation of losses attributable to nonrecourse
debt) within the meaning of Section 704(b) of the Code as interpreted by the
Regulations promulgated pursuant thereto. 
Article V and other relevant provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted
in a manner consistent with such intent.


5.08         Withholding.  All amounts
required to be withheld pursuant to Section 1446 of the Code or any other
provision of federal, state, or local tax law shall be treated as amounts
actually distributed to the affected Partners for all purposes under this
Agreement.  If the Partnership’s
withholding obligations with respect to a Partner shall exceed the cash
distributable to such Partner, such Partner shall be liable for a mandatory
capital contribution equal to such excess. 
Failure to make such capital contribution shall result in the deemed
sale by such Partner of a portion of such Partner’s Partnership Interest; such
portion having an agreed value equal to such excess.


5.09         Tax Consequences to Limited Partners.  In
exercising its authority under this Agreement, the General Partner may, but
shall be under no obligation to, take into account the tax consequences to any
Partner (including the General Partner) of any action taken by it. The General
Partner and the Partnership shall not have liability to a Partner under any
circumstances as a result of an income tax liability incurred by such Limited
Partner as a result of an action (or inaction) by the General Partner pursuant
to its authority under this Agreement.

in, and the contributions of property to, its Subsidiaries and any other Person
in which it has an equity interest from time to time);


(xx)          to establish Partnership reserves for
working capital, capital expenditures, contingent liabilities, or any other

affairs of the Partnership (including, without limitation, all actions
consistent with allowing the Company at 



 21
 






 



all times to qualify as a REIT unless the Company voluntarily
terminates its REIT status) and to possess and enjoy all of the rights and
powers of a general partner as provided by the Act.


(b)           Except
as otherwise provided herein, to the extent the duties of the General Partner
require expenditures of funds to be paid to third parties, the General Partner
shall not have any obligations hereunder except to apply Partnership funds to
the extent that Partnership funds are reasonably available to it for the
performance of such duties, and nothing herein contained shall be deemed to
authorize or require the General Partner, in its capacity as such, to expend
its individual funds for payment to third parties or to undertake any individual
liability or obligation on behalf of the Partnership.


(c)           Any
actions taken by the General Partner pursuant to its authority under this
Agreement on behalf of the Partnership regarding the approval of any
transaction between the Partnership and the Sponsor, Advisor, a member of the
Board of Directors of the Company or any Affiliate thereof, shall require
approval by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company
(including a majority of the independent directors) not otherwise interested in
such transaction as being fair and reasonable to the Company and the
Partnership on terms and conditions not less favorable to the Company or the
Partnership, as applicable, than those available from unaffiliated third
parties.


6.02         Delegation of Authority.


The General Partner may delegate any or all of its
powers, rights and obligations hereunder, and may appoint, employ, contract or
otherwise deal with any Person (including without limitation officers or other
agents of the Partnership, the Company or the General Partner appointed by the
General Partner) for the transaction of the business of the Partnership, which
Person may, under supervision of the General Partner, perform any acts or
services for the Partnership as the General Partner may approve.


6.03         Indemnification and Exculpation of Indemnitees.


(a)           The
Partnership shall indemnify an Indemnitee from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including reasonable
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 as set forth in this Agreement in which any Indemnitee may be
involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, as a result
of acting on behalf of or performing services for the Partnership, only if it
is determined that (i) the Indemnitee acted in good faith and (ii) that the Indemnitee
reasonably believed that the act or omission was in the Partnership’s best
interests, or if the act or omission was outside the Indemnitee’s official
capacity as a general partner of the Partnership, that the act or omission was
at least not opposed to the Partnership’s best interests.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each
Indemnitee shall be liable, responsible and accountable, and the Partnership
shall not be liable to an Indemnitee, other than for reasonable expenses
actually incurred by the Indemnitee with respect to a proceeding in which (i)
the Indemnitee is found liable on the basis that the Indemnitee improperly
received personal benefit, whether or not the benefit resulted from an action
taken in the Indemnitee’s official capacity, or (ii) the Indemnitee is found
liable to the Partnership or the Limited Partners.  The Partnership shall not indemnify or hold
harmless the Indemnitee:  (a) in the case
in which the Indemnitee is an Independent 
Director, if the loss or liability was the result of gross negligence or
willful misconduct by the Indemnitee, or (b) in any other case, if the loss or
liability was the result of negligence or misconduct by the Indemnitee.  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 6.03(a).  The termination of any proceeding by
conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of
an order of probation prior to judgment, does not alone determine that the
Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified in this Section
6.03(a).  Any indemnification pursuant to
this Section 6.03 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership.



 22
 






 



(b)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the provisions of subsection (a) of this
Section, the Partnership shall not provide indemnification for any loss,
liability or expense arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or
state securities laws by an Indemnitee unless one or more of the following
conditions are met:  (i) there has been a
successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged
securities law violations as to the particular Indemnitee, (ii) such claims
have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent
jurisdiction as to the particular Indemnitee, or (iii) a court of competent
jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against a particular
Indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and the related
costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification
has been advised of the position of the SEC and of the published position of
any state securities regulatory authority in which securities of the Partnership
were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.


(c)           The
Partnership shall pay or reimburse reasonable legal expenses and other costs
incurred by an Indemnitee in advance of final disposition of a proceeding if
all of the following are satisfied: 
(i) the proceeding relates to acts or omissions with respect to the
performance of duties for services on behalf of the Partnership, (ii) the
Indemnitee provides the Partnership with written affirmation of the Indemnitee’s
good faith belief that the Indemnitee has met the standard of conduct necessary
for indemnification by the Partnership as authorized in this Section 6.03,
(iii) the legal proceeding was initiated by a third party who is not a
stockholder of the Company or, if by a stockholder of the Company acting in his
or her capacity as such, a court of competent jurisdiction approves such
advancement, and (iv) the Indemnitee provides the Partnership with a written
agreement to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the Partnership, together
with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, if it is ultimately
determined that the Indemnitee did not comply with the requisite standard of
conduct and is not entitled to indemnification.


(d)           The
Indemnification provided by this Section 6.03 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.


(e)           The
Partnership may purchase and maintain insurance or establish other
arrangements, including without limitation trust arrangements and letters of
credit on behalf of or to secure indemnification obligations owed to 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.


(f)            For
purposes of this Section 6.03, (i) the Partnership shall be deemed to have
requested an Indemnitee to serve as a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan
whenever the performance by the Indemnitee of its duties to the Partnership
also imposes duties on the Indemnitee, or otherwise involves services by the
Indemnitee to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; (ii)
excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan
pursuant to applicable law shall constitute fines within the meaning of this
Section 6.03; and (iii) actions taken or omitted by the Indemnitee with respect
to an employee benefit plan in the performance of its duties for a purpose
reasonably believed by it to be in the interest of the participants and
beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which is not
opposed to the best interests of the Partnership.


(g)           In
no event may an Indemnitee subject the Limited Partners to personal liability
by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement.


(h)           An
Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this
Section 6.03 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.



 23
 






 



(i)            The
provisions of this Section 6.03 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their
heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create
any rights in or be for the benefit of any other Persons.


6.04         Liability of the General Partner.


(a)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the General Partner shall
not be liable for monetary damages to the Partnership or any Partners for
losses sustained or liabilities incurred as a result of errors in judgment or
any act or omission if the General Partner acted in good faith.  The General Partner shall not be in breach of
any duty that the General Partner may owe to the Limited Partners or the
Partnership or any other Persons under this Agreement or of any duty stated or
implied by law or equity, provided, the General Partner, acting in good faith,
abides by the terms of this Agreement. 
In addition, to the extent the General Partner or any officer, director,
employee, agent or stockholder of the General Partner performs its duties in
accordance with the standards provided by the Act, as it may be amended from
time to time, or under any successor statute thereto, such Person or Persons
shall have no liability by reason of being or having been the General Partner,
or by reason of being an officer, director, employee, agent or stockholder of
the General Partner.  To the maximum
extent that the Act and the general laws of the State of Texas, in effect from
time to time, permit limitation of the liability of general partners of a
limited partnership, the General Partner and its officers, directors, employees,
agents and stockholders shall not be liable to the Partnership or to any
Partner for money damages except to the extent that (i) the General Partner or
its officers, directors, employees, agents or stockholders actually received an
improper benefit or profit in money, property or services, in which case the
liability shall not exceed the amount of the benefit or profit in money,
property or services actually received; or (ii) a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the General Partner or one or more of its officers,
directors, employees, agents or stockholders is entered in a proceeding based
on a finding in the proceeding that the action or failure to act of the General
Partner or one or more of its officers, directors, employees, agents or stockholders
was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and was material to the
cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding. 
Neither the amendment nor repeal of this Section 6.04(a), nor the
adoption or amendment of any other provision of this Agreement inconsistent
with this Section 6.04(a), shall apply to or affect in any respect the
applicability of the preceding sentence with respect to any act or failure to
act which occurred prior to such amendment, repeal or adoption.  In the absence of any Texas statute limiting
the liability of the General Partner or its directors or officers for money
damages in a suit by or on behalf of the Partnership or by any Partner, the
General Partner and the officers, directors, employees, agents and stockholders
of the General Partner shall not be liable to the Partnership or to any Partner
for money damages except to the extent that (i) the General Partner or one or
more of its officers, directors, employees, agents or stockholders actually
received an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services, in which
case the liability shall not exceed the amount of the benefit or profit in
money, property or services actually received; or (ii) a judgment or other
final adjudication adverse to the General Partner or one or more of its
officers, directors, employees, agents or stockholders is entered in a
proceeding based on a finding in the proceeding that the action of the General
Partner or one or more of its officers, directors, employees or stockholders
action or failure to act was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and
was material to the cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding.


(b)           The
Limited Partners expressly acknowledge that the General Partner is acting on
behalf of the Partnership, itself and its stockholders collectively, that the
General Partner is under no obligation to consider the separate interests of
the Limited Partners (including, without limitation, the tax consequences to
Limited Partners or the tax consequences of some, but not all, of the Limited
Partners) in deciding whether to cause the Partnership to take (or decline to
take) any actions.  In the event of a
conflict between the interests of its stockholders on the one hand and the Limited
Partners on the other, the General Partner shall endeavor in good faith to
resolve the conflict in a manner not adverse to either its stockholders or the
Limited Partners; provided, however, that for so long as the General Partner
directly owns a controlling interest in the Partnership, any such conflict that
the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines cannot be
resolved in a manner not adverse to either its 



 24
 






 



stockholders or the
Limited Partners shall be resolved in favor of its stockholders.  The General Partner shall not be liable for
monetary damages for losses sustained, liabilities incurred, or benefits not
derived by Limited Partners in connection with such decisions, provided that
the General Partner has acted in good faith.


(c)           Subject
to its obligations and duties as General Partner set forth in Section 6.01
hereof, the General Partner may exercise any of the powers granted to it under
this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either
directly or by or through its agents. 
The General Partner shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
negligence on the part of any such agent appointed by it in good faith.


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


(e)           Any
amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 6.04 or any provision hereof
shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on
the General Partner’s liability to the Partnership and the Limited Partners
under this Section 6.04 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment,
modification or repeal with respect to matters occurring, in whole or in part,
prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when claims
relating to such matters may arise or be asserted.


6.05         Reimbursement of or by General Partner.


(a)           Except
as provided in this Section 6.05 and elsewhere in this Agreement (including the
provisions of Articles V and VI regarding distributions, payments, and
allocations to which it may be entitled), the General Partner shall not be
compensated for its services as general partner of the Partnership.


(b)           The
General Partner shall be reimbursed by the Partnership on a monthly basis, or
such other basis as the General Partner may determine in its sole and absolute
discretion, for all REIT Expenses and Administrative Expenses incurred by the
General Partner.


(c)           The
Company shall be reimbursed by the Partnership 
on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partner may
determine in its sole and absolute discretion, for all REIT Expenses and
Administrative Expenses incurred by the Company.


6.06         Outside Activities.  Subject
to the Articles of Incorporation and any agreements entered into by the General
Partner or its Affiliates with the Partnership or a Subsidiary, or any officer,
director, manager, employee, agent, trustee, Affiliate or owner of the General
Partner, the Affiliates of the General Partner and the officers, directors,
managers, agents, trustees and owners of the General Partner and its Affiliates
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 substantially similar or identical to those of the
Partnership.  Neither the Partnership nor
any of the Limited Partners shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement
in any such business ventures, interests or activities.  None of the Limited Partners or any other
Person shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement or the partnership
relationship established hereby in any such business ventures, interests or
activities, and neither the General Partner, nor any Affiliates of the General
Partner nor any officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, trustees or
owners of the General Partner or the General Partner’s Affiliates shall have 



 25
 






 



any obligation pursuant to this Agreement to offer any interest in any
such business ventures, interests and activities to the Partnership or any
Limited Partner, even if such opportunity is of a character which, if presented
to the Partnership or any Limited Partner, could be taken by such Person.  Without the consent of the Limited Partners
holding more than 50% of the Percentage Interests, the General Partner shall
not, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any business, other than in
connection with the ownership, acquisition and disposition of Partnership
Interests as a general partner and the management of the business of the
Partnership, the facilitation of the Company’s operation as a REIT and such
activities as are incidental to the same. 
Without the consent of the Limited Partners holding more than 50% of the
Unaffiliated Percentage Interests (if any), neither the General Partner nor the
Company shall, directly or indirectly, participate in or otherwise acquire any
interest in any real or personal property, except its general partner interest
or its minority interest in any Subsidiary of the Partnership (held directly or
indirectly through a qualified REIT subsidiary (as defined in Code
Section 856(i)(2), limited liability company or taxable corporate
affiliate, as the Company shall determine consistent with its need to maintain
its status as a REIT) that the General Partner holds in order to maintain such
Subsidiary’s status as a partnership for federal income tax purpose or to
satisfy any covenants or terms of any documents evidencing a loan that is
either made to such Subsidiary or that relates to any property owned directly
or indirectly by such Subsidiary, and such bank accounts, similar instruments
or other short-term investments as it deems necessary to carry out its
responsibilities contemplated under this Agreement and the Certificate.


6.07         Employment or Retention of Affiliates.


(a)           Any
Affiliate of the General Partner may be employed or retained by the Partnership
and may otherwise deal with the Partnership (whether as an advisor, buyer,
lessor, lessee, manager, property management agent, asset manager, furnisher of
goods or services, broker, agent, lender or otherwise) and may receive from the
Partnership any compensation, price, or other payment therefor which the
General Partner determines to be fair and reasonable.


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


(c)           The
Partnership may transfer assets to joint ventures, limited liability companies,
other partnerships, corporations or other business entities in which it is or
thereby becomes a participant upon such terms and subject to such conditions as
the General Partner deems to be consistent with this Agreement and applicable
law.


(d)           Except
as expressly permitted by this Agreement, neither the General Partner nor any
of its Affiliates shall sell, transfer or convey any property to, or purchase
any property from, the Partnership, directly or indirectly, except pursuant to
transactions that are on terms that are fair and reasonable to the Partnership.


6.08         Reserved.


6.09         Title to Partnership Assets.  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, shall have any ownership interest in such
Partnership assets or any portion thereof; provided, that title to any or all
of the Partnership assets may be held in the name of the Partnership, the
General Partner or one or more nominees, as the General Partner may determine,
including Affiliates of the General Partner. 
The General Partner hereby declares and warrants that any Partnership
assets for which legal title is held in the name of the General Partner or any
nominee or Affiliate of the General Partner shall be held by such Person for
the use and benefit of the Partnership in 



 26
 






 



accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that the
General Partner shall use its best efforts to cause legal title to such assets
to be vested in the Partnership as soon as reasonably practicable.  All Partnership assets shall be recorded as
the property of the Partnership in its books and records, irrespective of the
name in which legal title to such Partnership assets is held.


6.10         Miscellaneous.  In the event
the Company redeems any REIT Shares, then the Partnership will be deemed to
have purchased from the Original Limited Partner a number of Partnership Units
determined by, and based upon, the application of the Conversion Factor on the
same terms upon which the Company redeemed such REIT Shares.  Moreover, if the Company makes a cash tender
offer or other offer to acquire REIT Shares, then the Company shall be deemed
to have made a corresponding offer to the Original Limited Partner to acquire
an equivalent number of Partnership Units held by the Original Limited Partner
based on the application of the Conversion Factor.  In the event any REIT Shares are redeemed by
the Company pursuant to such cash tender offer, then the Partnership shall be
deemed to have redeemed an equivalent number of the Original Limited Partner’s
Partnership Units for an equivalent purchase price based on the application of
the Conversion Factor.  If the Original
Limited Partner holds an insufficient number of Partnership Units to effect a
purchase or redemption contemplated by this Section 6.10, then the Partnership
will be deemed to have purchased or redeemed from the General Partner, after it
has purchased or redeemed all of the Original Limited Partner’s Partnership
Units, the number of Partnership Units necessary to effect such purchase or
redemption.

CHANGES IN GENERAL PARTNER


7.01         Transfer of the General Partner’s Partnership
Interest.


(a)           The
General Partner shall not transfer all or any portion of its General
Partnership Interest or withdraw as General Partner except as provided in or in
connection with a transaction contemplated by Sections 7.01(c), 7.01(d) or
7.01(e).


(b)           The
Company shall not transfer all or any portion of its interest in the General
Partner except as provided in or in connection with a transaction contemplated
by Sections 7.01(c), 7.01(d) or 7.01(e).


(c)           Except
as otherwise provided in Sections 7.01(d) or (e) hereof, neither the Company
nor the General Partner shall engage in any merger, consolidation or other
combination with or into another Person or sale of all or substantially all of
its assets (other than in connection with a change in the Company’s or General
Partner’s state of incorporation or organizational form), which, in any such
case, results in a change of control of the Company or the General Partner (a “Transaction”), unless:


(i)            the consent of Limited Partners
holding more than 50% of the Percentage Interests of the Limited Partners is
obtained; or


(ii)           as a result of such Transaction all
Limited Partners are granted the right to receive for each Partnership Unit an
amount of cash, securities, or other property equal to the product of the
Conversion Factor and the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property
paid in the Transaction to a holder of one REIT Share in consideration of the
transfer of one REIT Share; provided, that if, in connection with the
Transaction, a purchase, tender or exchange offer (“Offer”)
shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the
outstanding REIT Shares, each holder of Partnership Units shall be given the
option to exchange its Partnership Units for the greatest amount of cash,
securities, or other property which a Limited Partner would have received had
it (A) exercised its Exchange Right and (B) sold, tendered or exchanged
pursuant to the Offer the REIT Shares received upon exercise of the Exchange
Right immediately prior to the expiration of the Offer; or



 27
 






 



(iii)          the Company or the General Partner is
the surviving entity in the Transaction and either (A) the holders of REIT
Shares in the case of a Transaction involving the Company, or the Company in
the case of a Transaction involving the General Partner, do not receive cash,
securities, or other property in the Transaction or (B) all Limited
Partners (other than the General Partner or any Subsidiary) receive an amount of
cash, securities, or other property (expressed as an amount per REIT Share)
that is no less than the product of the Conversion Factor and the greatest
amount of cash, securities, or other property (expressed as an amount per REIT
Share) received in the Transaction by any holder of REIT Shares in the case of
a Transaction involving the Company, or the Company in the case of a
Transaction involving the General Partner.


(d)           Notwithstanding
Section 7.01(c), either the General Partner or the Company may merge with or
into or consolidate with another entity if immediately after such merger or
consolidation (i) substantially all of the assets of the successor or
surviving entity (the “Survivor”), other than Partnership Units held by the
General Partner, are contributed, directly or indirectly, to the Partnership as
a Capital Contribution in exchange for Partnership Units with a fair market
value equal to the value of the assets so contributed as determined by the
Survivor in good faith and (ii) the Survivor expressly agrees to assume all
obligations of the General Partner, as appropriate, hereunder.  Upon such contribution and assumption, the
Survivor shall have the right and duty to amend this Agreement as set forth in
this Section 7.01(d).  The Survivor shall
in good faith arrive at a new method for the calculation of the Cash Amount,
the REIT Shares Amount and the Conversion Factor for a Partnership Unit after
any such merger or consolidation so as to approximate the existing method for
such calculation as closely as reasonably possible.  Such calculation shall take into account,
among other things, the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property
that was receivable upon such merger or consolidation by a holder of REIT
Shares or options, warrants or other rights relating thereto, and which a
holder of Partnership Units could have acquired had such Partnership Units been
exchanged immediately prior to such merger or consolidation.  Such amendment to this Agreement shall
provide for adjustments to such method of calculation, which shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for herein with
respect to the Conversion Factor.  The
Survivor also shall in good faith modify the definition of REIT Shares and make
such amendments to Section 8.05 hereof so as to approximate the existing rights
and obligations set forth in Section 8.05 as closely as reasonably
possible.  The above provisions of this
Section 7.01(d) shall similarly apply to successive mergers or consolidations
permitted hereunder.


In respect of any transaction described in the
preceding paragraph, the General Partner is required to use its commercially
reasonable efforts to structure such transaction to avoid causing the Limited
Partners to recognize a gain for federal income tax purposes by virtue of the
occurrence of or their participation in such transaction, provided, such
efforts are consistent with the exercise of the Board of Directors’ fiduciary
duties to the stockholders of the General Partner under applicable law.


(e)           Notwithstanding
Section 7.01(c),


(i)            a General Partner may transfer all
or any portion of its General Partnership Interest to (A) a wholly-owned
Subsidiary of such General Partner or (B) the owner of all of the ownership
interests of such General Partner, and following a transfer of all of its
General Partnership Interest, may withdraw as General Partner; and


(ii)           the General Partner or the Company
may engage in a transaction not required by law or by the rules of any national
securities exchange on which the REIT Shares are listed to be submitted to the
vote of the holders of the REIT Shares.


7.02         Admission of a Substitute or Additional General
Partner.  A Person shall be admitted as a substitute
or additional General Partner of the Partnership only if the following terms
and conditions are satisfied:



 28
 






 



(a)           the
Person to be admitted as a substitute or additional General Partner shall have
accepted and agreed to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this
Agreement by executing a counterpart hereof and such other documents or
instruments as may be required or appropriate in order to effect the admission
of such Person as a General Partner, a certificate evidencing the admission of
such Person as a General Partner shall have been filed for recordation and all
other actions required by Section 2.05 hereof in connection with such admission
shall have been performed;


(b)           if
the Person to be admitted as a substitute or additional General Partner is a
corporation or a partnership, it shall have provided the Partnership with
evidence satisfactory to counsel for the Partnership of such Person’s authority
to become a General Partner and to be bound by the terms and provisions of this
Agreement; and


(c)           counsel
for the Partnership shall have rendered an opinion (relying on such opinions
from other counsel in the state or any other jurisdiction as may be necessary)
that the admission of the Person to be admitted as a substitute or additional
General Partner is in conformity with the Act, and that none of the actions
taken in connection with the admission of such Person as a substitute or
additional General Partner will cause (i) the Partnership to be classified
other than as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, or (ii) the loss
of any Limited Partner’s limited liability.


7.03         Effect of Bankruptcy, Withdrawal, Death or
Dissolution of a General Partner.


(a)           Upon
the occurrence of an Event of Bankruptcy as to a General Partner (and its
removal pursuant to Section 7.04(a) hereof) or the death, withdrawal, removal
or dissolution of a General Partner (except that, if a General Partner is, on
the date of such occurrence a partnership, the withdrawal, death, dissolution,
Event of Bankruptcy as to, or removal of a partner in, such partnership shall
be deemed not to be a dissolution of such General Partner if the business of
such General Partner is continued by the remaining partner or partners
thereof), the Partnership shall be dissolved and terminated unless the
Partnership is continued pursuant to Section 7.03(b) hereof.  The merger of the General Partner with or
into any entity that is admitted as a substitute or successor General Partner
pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof shall not be deemed to be the withdrawal,
dissolution or removal of the General Partner.


(b)           Following
the occurrence of an Event of Bankruptcy as to a General Partner (and its
removal pursuant to Section 7.04(a) hereof) or the death, withdrawal, removal
or dissolution of a General Partner (except that, if a General Partner is, on
the date of such occurrence a partnership, the withdrawal, death, dissolution,
Event of Bankruptcy as to, or removal of a partner in, such partnership shall
be deemed not to be a dissolution of such General Partner if the business of
such General Partner is continued by the remaining partner or partners
thereof), the Limited Partners, within 90 days after such occurrence, may elect
to continue the business of the Partnership for the balance of the term
specified in Section 2.04 hereof by selecting, subject to Section 7.02 hereof
and any other provisions of this Agreement, a substitute General Partner by
consent of a majority in interest of the Limited Partners.  If the Limited Partners elect to continue the
business of the Partnership and admit a substitute General Partner, the
relationship with the Partners and of any Person who has acquired an interest
of a Partner in the Partnership shall be governed by this Agreement.


7.04         Removal of a General Partner.


(a)           Upon
the occurrence of an Event of Bankruptcy as to, or the dissolution of, a
General Partner, such General Partner shall be deemed to be removed
automatically; provided, however, that if a General Partner is on the date of
such occurrence a partnership, the withdrawal, death, dissolution, Event of
Bankruptcy as to or removal of a partner in such partnership shall be deemed
not to be a dissolution of the General Partner if the business of such General
Partner is continued by the remaining partner or partners thereof.  The Limited Partners may not remove the
General Partner, with or without cause.


 



 29














 


(b)           If a General Partner
has been removed pursuant to this Section 7.04 and the Partnership is continued
pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof, such General Partner shall promptly transfer
and assign its General Partnership Interest in the Partnership to the substitute
General Partner approved by a majority in interest of the Limited Partners in
accordance with Section 7.03(b) hereof and otherwise admitted to the
Partnership in accordance with Section 7.02 hereof.  At the time of assignment, the removed
General Partner shall be entitled to receive from the substitute General
Partner the fair market value of the General Partnership Interest of such
removed General Partner as reduced by any damages caused to the Partnership by
such General Partner’s removal.  Such fair
market value shall be determined by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the
General Partner and Limited Partners holding more than 50% of the Percentage
Interests of the Limited Partners within 10 days following the removal of the
General Partner.  In the event that the
parties are unable to agree upon an appraiser, the removed General Partner and
Limited Partners holding more than 50% of the Percentage Interests of the
Limited Partners shall each select an appraiser.  Each such appraiser shall complete an
appraisal of the fair market value of the removed General Partner’s General
Partnership Interest within 30 days of the General Partner’s removal, and the
fair market value of the removed General Partner’s General Partnership Interest
shall be the average of the two appraisals; provided, however, that if the
higher appraisal exceeds the lower appraisal by more than 20% of the amount of
the lower appraisal, the two appraisers, no later than 40 days after the
removal of the General Partner, shall select a third appraiser who shall
complete an appraisal of the fair market value of the removed General Partner’s
General Partnership Interest no later than 60 days after the removal of the
General Partner.  In such case, the fair
market value of the removed General Partner’s General Partnership Interest
shall be the average of the two appraisals closest in value.


(c)           The
General Partnership Interest of a removed General Partner, during the time
after removal until the date of transfer under Section 7.04(b), shall be
converted to that of a special Limited Partner; provided, however, such removed
General Partner shall not have any rights to participate in the management and
affairs of the Partnership, and shall not be entitled to any portion of the
income, expense, Profit, gain or Loss allocations or cash distributions
allocable or payable, as the case may be, to the Limited Partners.  Instead, such removed General Partner shall
receive and be entitled only to retain distributions or allocations of such
items that it would have been entitled to receive in its capacity as General
Partner, until the transfer is effective pursuant to Section 7.04(b).


(d)           All
Partners shall have given and hereby do give such consents, shall take such
actions and shall execute such documents as shall be legally necessary and
sufficient to effect all the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.04.


ARTICLE
VIII

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE LIMITED PARTNERS


8.01         Management of the Partnership.  The
Limited Partners shall not participate in the management or control of
Partnership business nor shall they transact any business for or on behalf of
the Partnership, nor shall they have the power to sign for or bind the
Partnership, such powers being vested solely and exclusively in the General
Partner.


8.02         Power of Attorney.  Each
Limited Partner hereby irrevocably appoints the General Partner its true and
lawful attorney-in-fact, who may act for each Limited Partner and in its name,
place and stead, and for its use and benefit, sign, acknowledge, swear to,
deliver, file or record, at the appropriate public offices, any and all
documents, certificates, and instruments as may be deemed necessary or
desirable by the General Partner to carry out fully the provisions of this
Agreement and the Act in accordance with their terms, which power of attorney
is coupled with an interest and shall survive the death, dissolution or legal
incapacity of the Limited Partner, or the transfer by the Limited Partner of
any part or all of its Partnership Interest.



 30
 






 



8.03         Limitation on Liability of Limited Partners.  No
Limited Partner shall be liable for any debts, liabilities, contracts or
obligations of the Partnership.  A
Limited Partner shall be liable to the Partnership only to make payments of its
Capital Contribution, if any, as and when due hereunder.  After its Capital Contribution is fully paid,
no Limited Partner shall, except as otherwise required by the Act, be required
to make any further Capital Contributions or other payments or lend any funds
to the Partnership.


8.04         Ownership
by Limited Partner of Corporate General Partner or Affiliate.  No
Limited Partner shall at any time, either directly or indirectly, own any stock
or other interest in the General Partner or in any Affiliate thereof, if such
ownership by itself or in conjunction with other stock or other interests owned
by other Limited Partners would, in the opinion of counsel for the Partnership,
jeopardize the classification of the Partnership as a partnership for federal
income tax purposes.  The General Partner
shall be entitled to make such reasonable inquiry of the Limited Partners as is
required to establish compliance by the Limited Partners with the provisions of
this Section 8.04.


8.05         Exchange Right.


(a)           Subject
to Sections 8.05(b), 8.05(c), 8.05(d) and 8.05(e) hereof, and subject to the
potential modification of any rights or obligations provided for herein by
agreement(s) between the Partnership and any one or more Limited Partners with
respect to Partnership Units held by them, each Limited Partner shall have the
right (the “Exchange Right”) to require the
Partnership to redeem on a Specified Exchange Date all or a portion of the
Partnership Units held by such Limited Partner at an exchange price equal to
and in the form of the Cash Amount to be paid by the Partnership; provided,
that such Partnership Units shall have been outstanding for at least one
year.  The Exchange Right shall be
exercised pursuant to the delivery of an Exchange Notice to the Partnership
(with a copy to the Company) by the Limited Partner who is exercising the
Exchange Right (the “Exchanging Partner”);
provided, however, that the Partnership shall not be obligated to satisfy such
Exchange Right if the Company elects to purchase the Partnership Units subject
to the Exchange Notice pursuant to Section 8.05(b); and provided further, that
no Limited Partner may deliver more than two Exchange Notices during each
calendar year.  A Limited Partner may not
exercise the Exchange Right for less than 1,000 Partnership Units or, if such
Limited Partner holds less than 1,000 Partnership Units, all of the Partnership
Units held by such Partner.  The
Exchanging Partner shall have no right, with respect to any Partnership Units
so exchanged, to receive any distribution paid with respect to such Partnership
Units if the record date for such distribution is on or after the Specified
Exchange Date.


(b)           Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 8.05(a), a Limited Partner that exercises the
Exchange Right shall be deemed to have also offered to sell the Partnership
Units described in the Exchange Notice to the Company, and the Company may, in
its sole and absolute discretion, elect to purchase directly and acquire such
Partnership Units by paying to the Exchanging Partner either the Cash Amount or
the REIT Shares Amount, as elected by the Company (in its sole and absolute
discretion), on the Specified Exchange Date, whereupon the Company shall
acquire the Partnership Units offered for exchange by the Exchanging Partner
and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the owner of such
Partnership Units.  If the Company shall
elect to exercise its right to purchase Partnership Units under this Section
8.05(b) with respect to an Exchange Notice, it shall so notify the Exchanging
Partner within five business days after the receipt by the Company of such
Exchange Notice.  Unless the Company (in
its sole and absolute discretion) shall exercise its right to purchase
Partnership Units from the Exchanging Partner pursuant to this Section 8.05(b),
the Company shall have no obligation to the Exchanging Partner or the
Partnership with respect to the Exchanging Partner’s exercise of an Exchange
Right.  In the event the Company shall
exercise its right to purchase Partnership Units with respect to the exercise
of an Exchange Right in the manner described in the first sentence of this
Section 8.05(b), the Partnership shall have no obligation to pay any amount to
the Exchanging Partner with respect to such Exchanging Partner’s exercise of
such Exchange Right, and each of the Exchanging Partner and the Company shall
treat the transaction between the Company and the Exchanging Partner for
federal income tax purposes as a sale of the Exchanging Partner’s Partnership
Units to the Company.  Each Exchanging 



 31
 






 



Partner agrees to execute
such documents as the Company may reasonably require in connection with the
issuance of REIT Shares to such Exchanging Partner upon exercise of its
Exchange Right.


(c)           Notwithstanding
the provisions of Sections 8.05(a) and 8.05(b), a Limited Partner shall not be
entitled to exercise the Exchange Right if the delivery of REIT Shares to such
Partner on the Specified Exchange Date by the Company pursuant to Section
8.05(b) (regardless of whether or not the Company would in fact exercise its
rights under Section 8.05(b)) would (i) result in such Partner or any other
person owning, directly or indirectly, REIT Shares in excess of the ownership
limitations described in the Articles of Incorporation and calculated in
accordance therewith, (ii) result in REIT Shares being owned by fewer than 100
persons (determined without reference to any rules of attribution), except as
provided in the Articles of Incorporation, (iii) result in the Company being “closely
held” within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, (iv) cause the Company
to own, directly or constructively, 10% or more of the ownership interests in a
tenant of the Company’s, the Partnership’s, or a Subsidiary Partnership’s real
property within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, or (v) cause
the acquisition of REIT Shares by such Partner to be “integrated” with any
other distribution of REIT Shares for purposes of complying with the
registration provisions of the Securities Act, provided, that if such Partner
delivers an opinion of counsel that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company
providing that the acquisition of REIT Shares by such Partner will not be “integrated”
with any other distribution of REIT Shares for purposes of complying with the
Securities Act, then the General Partner may not prevent such Partner from
exercising the Exchange Right by virtue of this clause (v).  The General Partner, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may, with the consent of the Company, waive any of the restrictions
on exchange set forth in this Section 8.05(c); provided, however, that in the
event any such restriction is waived, the Exchanging Partner shall be paid the
Cash Amount.


(d)           Any
Cash Amount to be paid to an Exchanging Partner pursuant to this Section 8.05
shall be paid on the Specified Exchange Date; provided, however, that the
General Partner may elect to cause the Specified Exchange Date to be delayed
for up to 180 days to the extent required for the General Partner to cause
additional REIT Shares to be issued to provide financing to be used to make
such payment of the Cash Amount. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the General Partner agrees to use its
best efforts to cause the closing of the acquisition of exchanged Partnership
Units hereunder to occur as quickly as reasonably possible.


(e)           Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner shall place
appropriate restrictions on the ability of the Limited Partners to exercise
their Exchange Rights as and if deemed necessary to ensure that the Partnership
does not constitute a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the
Code.  If and when the General Partner
determines that imposing such restrictions is necessary, the General Partner
shall give prompt written notice thereof (a “Restriction
Notice”) to each of the Limited Partners, which notice shall be
accompanied by a copy of an opinion of counsel to the Partnership which states
that, in the opinion of such counsel, restrictions are necessary in order to
avoid the Partnership being treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under
Section 7704 of the Code.


8.06         Call Right.


(a)           Subject
to Section 8.06(c) below, and subject to the modification of any rights or
obligations provided for herein by agreement(s) between the Company and any one
or more Limited Partners with respect to the Partnership Units held by them, at
any time after the expiration of the Holding Period for the Partnership Units
in question, the Company shall have the right (the “Call Right”)
to purchase all of the Partnership Units held by a Limited Partner at a price
equal to the Cash Amount; provided, however, that the Company (or any of its
Affiliates) may, in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, elect to
purchase such Partnership Units by paying to the Partner in question the REIT
Shares Amount in lieu of the Cash Amount. 
The Call Right shall be exercised pursuant to a Call Notice delivered by
the Company to any such Limited Partner. 
The Company may not exercise the Call Right for less than the entire
interest of a Limited Partner in the Partnership.  A Limited Partner receiving the 



 32
 






 



Call Notice described
above shall have no rights with respect to any interest in the Partnership
other than the right to receive payment for its interest in the Partnership in
cash or REIT Shares in accordance with this Section 8.06.  An assignee of a Limited Partner shall be
bound by and subject to the Call Right of the Company pursuant to this Section
8.06.  In connection with any exercise of
such Call Right by the Company with respect to an assignee, the Cash Amount (or
REIT Shares Amount) shall be paid by the Company directly to such assignee and
not to the Limited Partner from which such assignee acquired its Partnership
Units.  The Company shall be unable to
exercise the Call Right and the Call Right shall lapse upon the occurrence of a
Liquidating Event unless and until the Partners shall continue the business of
the Partnership under Section 7.03 hereof.


(b)           (i)            Within 30 days after the delivery of
the Call Notice by the Company to a Limited Partner under this Section 8.06,
the Company (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.06(c)) shall
transfer and deliver the Cash Amount (or the REIT Shares Amount) to such
Limited Partner or, as applicable, its assignee, whereupon the Company (or its
designee) shall acquire the Partnership Units of such Limited Partner or, as
applicable, its assignee, and shall be treated for all purposes of this
Agreement as the owner of such Partnership Units (and as a Limited Partner with
respect to such Partnership Units).


(ii)           In the event that the Company elects
to pay such Limited Partner in the form of the REIT Shares Amount and such REIT
Shares Amount is not a whole number of REIT Shares, the Limited Partner shall
be paid (A) the number of REIT Shares which equals the nearest whole number
less than such amount plus (B) an amount of cash which the Company determines,
in its reasonable discretion, to represent the fair value of the remaining
fractional REIT Share which would otherwise be payable to the Limited Partner.


(iii)          Each Limited Partner agrees to deliver
to the Company the Partnership Unit Certificate(s) representing its Limited
Partnership Interest and to execute such documents as the Company may
reasonably require in connection with the issuance of REIT Shares upon exercise
of the Call Right (including without limitation an assignment of Partnership
Units pursuant to the terms of which such Limited Partner (A) represents,
warrants and certifies that it has marketable and unencumbered title to its
Partnership Units, free and clear of the rights of or interest of any other
person or entity, that it has the full right, power and authority to transfer

venture of any kind, independently or with others, on their own behalf or on
behalf of other entities with which they are affiliated or associated, and such
Persons may engage in any activities, whether or not competitive with the
Partnership, without any obligation to offer any interest in such activities to
the Partnership or to any Partner. 
Neither the Partnership nor any Partner shall have any right, by virtue
of this Agreement, in or to such activities, or the income or profits derived
therefrom, and the pursuit of such activities, even if competitive with the
business of the Partnership, and such activities shall not be deemed wrongful
or improper.

TRANSFERS OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS


9.01         Purchase for Investment.


(a)           Each
Limited Partner hereby represents and warrants to the General Partner and to
the Partnership that the acquisition of its Partnership Interest is made as a
principal for its account for investment purposes only and not with a view to
the resale or distribution of such Partnership Interest.


(b)           Each
Limited Partner agrees that it will not sell, assign or otherwise transfer its
Partnership Interest or any fraction thereof, whether voluntarily or by
operation of law or at judicial sale or otherwise, to any Person who does not
make the representations and warranties to the General Partner set forth in
Section 9.01(a) above.


9.02         Restrictions on Transfer of Limited Partnership
Interests.


(a)           Subject
to the provisions of Sections 9.02(b), 9.02(c) and 9.02(d), no Limited Partner
may offer, sell, assign, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise transfer all or any
portion of its Limited Partnership Interest, or any of such Limited Partner’s
economic rights as a Limited Partner, whether voluntarily or by operation of
law or at judicial sale or otherwise (collectively, a “Transfer”),
without the consent of the General Partner, which consent may be granted or
withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. 
Any such purported transfer undertaken without such consent shall be considered
to be null and void ab initio and shall not be given effect.  The Original Limited Partner acknowledges
that the General Partner may or may not grant its consent with respect to any
Transfer by the Original Limited Partner prior to the Transfer Restriction
Date; provided, that the Original Limited Partner shall not be prohibited from
a Transfer of its Partnership Interest pursuant to the exercise of its right to
exchange its Partnership Interest for REIT Shares pursuant to Section 8.05
above, in which case the Original Limited Partner acknowledges that the General
Partner also may or may not grant its consent with respect to any Transfer of
said REIT Shares prior to the Transfer Restriction Date.  The General Partner may require, as a
condition of any Transfer to which it consents, that the transferor assume all
costs incurred by the Partnership in connection therewith.


(b)           No
Limited Partner may withdraw from the Partnership other than as a result of:
(i) a permitted Transfer (i.e., a Transfer consented to as contemplated by
paragraph (a) above or paragraph (c) below or a Transfer made pursuant to
Section 9.05 below) of all of its Partnership Units pursuant to this Article IX
pursuant to an exchange of all of its Partnership Units pursuant to Section
8.05 above; or (ii) a Transfer made pursuant to the sale of all its Partnership
Units pursuant to Section 8.06 above. 
Upon 



 34
 






 



the permitted Transfer or
redemption of all of a Limited Partner’s Partnership Units, such Limited
Partner shall cease to be a Limited Partner.


(c)           Subject
to Sections 9.02(d), 9.02(e) and 9.02(f), a Limited Partner may Transfer, with
the consent of the General Partner, all or a portion of its Partnership Units
to (i) a parent or parent’s spouse, natural or adopted descendants, a spouse of
any such descendant, a brother or sister, or a trust created by such Limited
Partner for the benefit of such Limited Partner and/or any such person(s), for
which trust such Limited Partner or any such person(s) is a trustee, (ii) a
corporation controlled by a Person or Persons named in (i) above, or (iii) if
the Limited Partner is an entity, its beneficial owners.


(d)           No
Limited Partner may effect a Transfer of its Limited Partnership Interest, in
whole or in part, if, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, such
proposed Transfer would require the registration of the Limited Partnership
Interest under the Securities Act, or would otherwise violate any applicable
federal or state securities or blue sky law (including investment suitability
standards).


(e)           No
Transfer by a Limited Partner of its Partnership Units, in whole or in part,
may be made to any Person if (i) in the opinion of legal counsel for the
Partnership, the transfer would result in the Partnership’s being treated as an
association taxable as a corporation (other than a qualified REIT subsidiary
within the meaning of Section 856(i) of the Code), (ii) in the opinion of legal
counsel for the Company, it would adversely affect the ability of the Company
to continue to qualify as a REIT or subject the Company to any additional taxes
under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code, or (iii) such transfer is
effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market”
(or the substantial equivalent thereof) within the meaning of Section 7704 of
the Code.


(f)            No
transfer of any Partnership Units may be made to a lender to the Partnership or
any Person who is related (within the meaning of Regulations Section
1.752-4(b)) to any lender to the Partnership whose loan constitutes a
nonrecourse liability (within the meaning of Regulations
Section 1.752-1(a)(2)), without the consent of the General Partner, which
may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, that as a
condition to such consent the lender will be required to enter into an
arrangement with the Partnership and the Company to exchange or redeem for the
Cash Amount any Partnership Units in which a security interest is held
simultaneously with the time at which such lender would be deemed to be a partner
in the Partnership for purposes of allocating liabilities to such lender under
Section 752 of the Code.


(g)           Any
Transfer in contravention of any of the provisions of this Article IX shall be
void and ineffectual and shall not be binding upon, or recognized by, the
Partnership.


(h)           Prior
to the consummation of any Transfer under this Article IX, the transferor
and/or the transferee shall deliver to the General Partner such opinions,
certificates and other documents as the General Partner shall request in
connection with such Transfer.


9.03         Admission of Substitute Limited Partner.


(a)           Subject
to the other provisions of this Article IX, an assignee of the Limited
Partnership Interest of a Limited Partner (which shall be understood to include
any purchaser, transferee, donee or other recipient of any disposition of such
Limited Partnership Interest) shall be deemed admitted as a Limited Partner of
the Partnership only with the consent of the General Partner and upon the
satisfactory completion of the following:


(i)            the assignee shall have accepted and
agreed to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement by executing a
counterpart or an amendment thereof, including a revised Exhibit A, and
such other documents or instruments as the General Partner may require in order
to effect the admission of such Person as a Limited Partner;



 35
 






 



(ii)           to the extent required, an amended
Certificate evidencing the admission of such Person as a Limited Partner shall
have been signed, acknowledged and filed for record in accordance with the Act;


(iii)          the assignee shall have delivered a
letter containing the representation set forth in Section 9.01(a) hereof and
the agreement set forth in Section 9.01(b) hereof;


(iv)          if the assignee is a corporation,
partnership or trust, the assignee shall have provided the General Partner with
evidence satisfactory to counsel for the Partnership of the assignee’s
authority to become a Limited Partner under the terms and provisions of this
Agreement;


(v)           the assignee shall have executed a
power of attorney containing the terms and provisions set forth in Section 8.02
hereof;


(vi)          the assignee shall have paid all legal
fees and other expenses of the Partnership and the General Partner and filing
and publication costs in connection with its substitution as a Limited Partner;
and


(vii)         the assignee shall have obtained the
prior written consent of the General Partner to its admission as a Substitute
Limited Partner, which consent may be given or denied in the exercise of the
General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion.


(b)           For
the purpose of allocating Profit and Loss and distributing cash received by the
Partnership, a Substitute Limited Partner shall be treated as having become,
and appearing in the records of the Partnership as, a Partner upon the filing
of the Certificate described in Section 9.03(a)(ii) hereof or, if no such
filing is required, the later of the date specified in the transfer documents
or the date on which the General Partner has received all necessary instruments
of transfer and substitution.


(c)           The
General Partner shall cooperate with the Person seeking to become a Substitute
Limited Partner by preparing the documentation required by this Section 9.03
and making all official filings and publications.  The Partnership shall take all such action as
promptly as practicable after the satisfaction of the conditions in this
Article IX to the admission of such Person as a Limited Partner of the
Partnership.


9.04         Rights of Assignees of Partnership Interests.


(a)           Subject
to the provisions of Sections 9.01 and 9.02 hereof, except as required by
operation of law, the Partnership shall not be obligated for any purposes
whatsoever to recognize the assignment by any Limited Partner of its
Partnership Interest until the Partnership has received notice thereof.


(b)           Any
Person who is the assignee of all or any portion of a Limited Partner’s Limited
Partnership Interest, but who does not become a Substitute Limited Partner and
desires to make a further assignment of such Limited Partnership Interest,
shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article IX to the same extent
and in the same manner as any Limited Partner desiring to make an assignment of
its Limited Partnership Interest.


9.05         Effect of Bankruptcy, Death, Incompetence or Termination
of a Limited Partner.  The occurrence of an Event of
Bankruptcy as to a Limited Partner, the death of a Limited Partner or a final
adjudication that a Limited Partner is incompetent (which term shall include,
but not be limited to, insanity) shall not cause the termination or dissolution
of the Partnership, and the business of the Partnership shall continue if an
order for relief in a bankruptcy proceeding is entered against a Limited
Partner, the trustee or receiver of his estate or, if he dies, his executor,
administrator or trustee, or, if he is 



 36
 






 



finally adjudicated incompetent, his committee, guardian or
conservator, and any such Person shall have the rights of such Limited Partner
for the purpose of settling or managing his estate property and such power as
the bankrupt, deceased or incompetent Limited Partner possessed to assign all
or any part of his Partnership Interest and to join with the assignee in
satisfying conditions precedent to the admission of the assignee as a
Substitute Limited Partner.


9.06         Joint Ownership of Interests.  A
Partnership Interest may be acquired by two individuals as joint tenants with
right of survivorship, provided, that such individuals either are married or
are related and share the same personal residence.  The written consent or vote of both owners of
any such jointly-held Partnership Interest shall be required to constitute the
action of the owners of such Partnership Interest; provided, however, that the
written consent of only one joint owner will be required if the Partnership has
been provided with evidence satisfactory to the counsel for the Partnership
that the actions of a single joint owner can bind both owners under the
applicable laws of the state of residence of such joint owners.  Upon the death of one owner of a Partnership
Interest held in a joint tenancy with a right of survivorship, the Partnership
Interest shall become owned solely by the survivor as a Limited Partner and not
as an assignee.  The Partnership need not
recognize the death of one of the owners of a jointly held Partnership Interest
until it shall have received notice of such death.  Upon notice to the General Partner from
either owner, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership Interest to be
divided into two equal Partnership Interests, which shall thereafter be owned
separately by each of the former joint owners.

amendment that would alter the Partnership’s allocations of Profit and Loss to

The foregoing notwithstanding, the approval of any
amendment to this Agreement that shall be part of a plan of merger, plan of
exchange or plan of conversion involving the Partnership or the Partnership
Interests shall be governed by Article XII.


11.02       Meetings of Partners.


(a)           The
Partners may but shall not be required to hold any annual, periodic or other
formal meetings.  Meetings of the Partners may be called by the
General Partner or by any Limited Partner or Limited Partners holding at least
10% of the Partnership Units in the Partnership.


(b)           The
Partner or Partners calling the meeting may designate any place within the
State of Texas as the place of meeting for any meeting of the Partners; and
Partners holding at least a majority of the Partnership Units in the
Partnership may designate any place outside the State of Texas as the place of
meeting for any meeting of the Partners. 
If no designation is made, or if a special meeting is called, the place
of meeting shall be the principal place of business of the Partnership.


(c)           Except
as provided in Section 11.02(d), written notice stating the place, day and hour
of the meeting and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called shall be
delivered not less than ten (10) nor more than ninety (90) days before the date

Partner or Partners calling the meeting, to each Partner entitled to vote at
such meeting and to each Partner not entitled to vote who is entitled to notice
of the meeting.


(d)           Anything
in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, with respect to any meeting
of the Partners, any Partner who in person or by proxy shall have waived in
writing notice of the meeting, either before or after such meeting, or who
shall attend the meeting in person or by proxy, shall be deemed to have waived notice of such meeting
unless such Partner attends for the express purpose of objecting, at the
beginning of the meeting, and does so object to the transaction of any business
because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.


(e)           If
all of the Partners shall meet at any time and place, either within or outside
of the State of Texas, in person or by proxy, and consent to the holding of a
meeting at such time and place, such meeting shall be valid without call or notice, and at such
meeting lawful action may be taken.

business which might have been transacted at the original meeting may be
transacted at any adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present.  No notice of an adjourned meeting need be
given if the time and place are announced at the meeting at which the
adjournment is taken unless the adjournment is for more than 120 days.  The Partners present at a duly organized
meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding
the withdrawal during such meeting of that number Partnership Units whose
absence would cause less than a quorum to be present.


(h)           If
a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of Partners holding a majority of the
Partnership Units entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy,
shall be binding on all Partners, unless the vote of a greater or lesser
proportion or number of Partnership Units or Partners is otherwise required by
applicable law or by this Agreement. 
Unless otherwise expressly provided herein or required under applicable
law, Partners who have an interest (economic or otherwise) in the outcome of
any particular matter upon which the Partners’ vote or consent is required may
vote or consent upon any such matter and their Partnership Units, vote or
consent, as the case may be, shall be counted in the determination of whether
the requisite matter was approved by the Partners.


(i)            At
all meetings of Partners, a Partner may vote in person or by proxy executed in
writing by the Partner or by the Partner’s duly authorized attorney-in-fact.
Such proxy shall be filed with the General Partner before or at the time of the meeting. No proxy
shall be valid after eleven months from the date of its execution, unless
otherwise provided in the proxy.


(j)            Action
required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of Partners may be taken without
a meeting if the action is evidenced by one or more written consents or
approvals describing the action taken and signed by sufficient Partners or
Partners holding sufficient Partnership Units, as the case may be, to approve such action had such action
been properly voted on at a duly called meeting of the Partners.  Action taken under this Section 11.02(j) is
effective when the requisite Partners or Partners with the requisite
Partnership Units, as the case may be, have signed the consent or approval,
unless the consent specifies a different effective date.

vote, of the meeting of the Limited Partners at which the plan of merger, plan
of exchange or plan of conversion is to be submitted for approval in accordance
with this Section 12.02 and applicable law. 
The notice shall be given at least twenty (20) days before the meeting
and shall state that the purpose, or one of the purposes, of the meeting is to
consider the plan of merger, plan of exchange or plan of conversion and shall
contain or be accompanied by a copy or summary of the plan.  Any such approval may be by written consent
of the requisite Limited Partners as would be required to approve the plan at
any meeting where all the Limited Partners are present.


(e)           Unless
the General Partner (acting pursuant to Section 12.02(c)) requires a greater
vote, the vote of the Limited Partners required for approval of a plan of
merger, plan of exchange or plan of conversion shall be the affirmative vote of
the holders of more than 50% of the Percentage Interests of the Limited
Partners entitled to vote thereon.


(f)            Unless
applicable law otherwise requires (in which case the approval of the Limited
Partners shall continue to be required and the foregoing provisions of this
Section 12.02 shall continue to 



 41
 






 



apply), (1) approval by
the Limited Partners on a plan of exchange shall not be required, and the
foregoing provisions of this Section 12.02 do not apply, if the Partnership is
the acquiring entity in the plan of exchange, and (2) approval by the Limited
Partners on a plan of merger or a plan of conversion shall not be required and
the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.02 do not apply, if:


(i)            a limited partnership is the sole
surviving or resulting entity;


(ii)           the partnership agreement of the
surviving or resulting limited partnership will not materially differ from this
Agreement before the merger or conversion in any manner other than as to
applicable law or other insignificant conforming differences;


(iii)          Limited Partners who held Limited
Partnership Interests immediately before the effective date of the merger or
conversion will hold interests in the surviving or resulting entity in the same
proportions, immediately after the effective date of the merger or conversion;
and


(iv)          the General Partner adopts a
resolution approving the plan of merger or plan of conversion.


(g)           After
a plan of merger, plan of exchange or plan of conversion is approved, and at
any time before the merger, exchange or conversion has become effective, the
plan of merger, plan of exchange or plan of conversion may be abandoned
(subject to any contractual rights by any of the entities that are a party
thereto), without action by the Limited Partners, in accordance with the
procedures set forth in the plan of merger, plan of exchange or plan of
conversion or, if no such procedures are set forth in the plan, in the manner
determined by the General Partner.


12.03       Rights of Dissenting Limited Partners.


(a)           In
the absence of fraud in the transaction, the remedy provided by this Section
12.03 to a Limited Partner voting against any merger, exchange or conversion or
objecting to a merger, exchange or conversion approved by the written consent
of Limited Partners (a “Dissenting Limited
Partner”) is the exclusive remedy for the recovery of the value of
his Limited Partnership interests or money damages with respect to the
transaction.  If the existing, surviving,
or new corporation or limited partnership (foreign or domestic) or other
entity, as the case may be, complies with the requirements of this
Section 12.03, any Dissenting Limited Partner who fails to comply with the
requirements of this Section 12.03 shall not be entitled to bring suit for
the recovery of the value of his Limited Partnership interests or money damages
with respect to the transaction.  A “Dissenting
Limited Partner” in respect of any merger, exchange or conversion shall
expressly exclude any Limited Partner who votes in favor of the related plan of
merger, plan of exchange or plan of conversion or who abstains or fails to
timely vote therefor.  In the event of a
plan of merger, plan of exchange or plan of conversion approved by written
consent, a “Dissenting Limited Partner” in respect of any related merger,
exchange or conversion shall expressly exclude Limited Partners who provide
such written consent and Limited Partners who fail to object to the merger,
exchange or conversion and demands payment for such Limited Partner’s Limited
Partnership Interest in writing to the General Partner within twenty (20) days
after notice to the Limited Partners of the receipt by the Partnership of
written consents sufficient to approve such merger, exchange or
conversion.  All such Limited Partners who
are not included within the definition of Dissenting Limited Partner in respect
of any merger, exchange or conversion shall participate in the merger, exchange
or conversion according to the approved plan of merger, plan of exchange or
plan of conversion.


(b)           Any
Dissenting Limited Partner who has opted for payment for his Limited
Partnership interests shall not thereafter be entitled to vote or exercise any
other rights of a Limited Partner except the right to receive payment for his
Limited Partnership interests and the right to maintain an appropriate 



 42
 






 



action to obtain relief
on the ground that the transaction would be or was fraudulent.  Limited Partnership Interests of Dissenting
Limited Partners for which payment has been made shall not thereafter be
considered outstanding for the purposes of any subsequent vote of the Limited
Partners.


(c)           Within
twenty (20) days after a Dissenting Limited Partner votes against any plan of
merger, plan of exchange or plan of conversion which is approved by a vote of
the Limited Partners, or in connection with a Limited Partner’s objection to
any plan of merger, plan of exchange or plan of conversion approved by the
written consent of the Limited Partners, the Dissenting Limited Partner may
demand by written notice to the General Partner that payment for his Limited
Partnership Interest be made.  Upon
receipt of such a payment demand, the General Partner shall (i) make a notation
on the records of the Partnership that such demand has been made and (ii)
within a reasonable period of time after the later of the receipt of a payment
demand or the consummation of the merger, exchange or conversion, cause the
Partnership to pay to the Dissenting Limited Partner the fair value of such
Dissenting Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest without interest.  The fair value of a Dissenting Limited
Partner’s Partnership Interest shall be an amount equal to the Dissenting
Limited Partner’s pro rata share (as would be determined under Section 5.06
hereof if the Partnership were liquidating) of the appraised value of the net assets
of the Partnership based on an appraisal of all assets of the Partnership from
a Competent Independent Expert.  The
assets of the Partnership shall be appraised on a consistent basis.  The appraisal shall be based on an evaluation
of all relevant information and shall include the current value of the
Partnership’s assets as of the date immediately prior to the proposed merger,
exchange or conversion.  The appraisal
shall assume an orderly liquidation of the Partnership’s assets over a twelve
(12) month period, shall consider other balance sheet items, and shall be net
of the assumed cost of sale.  The terms
of the engagement of the appraiser shall clearly state that the engagement is
for the benefit of the Partnership and its Limited Partners.  A summary of the independent appraisal,
including all material assumptions underlying the appraisal, shall be provided
to Dissenting Limited Partners in connection with the payment of the fair value
of their Limited Partnership Interests.


(d)           If
a Dissenting Limited Partner shall fail to make a payment demand within the
period provided in Section 12.03(c) hereof or, in respect of a plan of merger,
plan of exchange or plan of conversion approved by written consent of the
Limited Partners, shall fail to provide notice of dissent within the period set
forth in Section 12.03(a) hereof, such Dissenting Limited Partner and all
persons claiming under him shall be conclusively presumed to have approved and
ratified the merger, conversion or exchange and shall be bound thereby, the
right of such Dissenting Limited Partner to be paid the fair value of his
Limited Partnership Interest shall cease, and his status as a Limited Partner
shall be restored without prejudice to any proceedings which may have been
taken during the interim, and such Dissenting Limited Partner shall be entitled
to receive any distributions made to Limited Partners in the interim.


12.04       Roll-Up Transactions.  If the
Partnership adopts any plan of merger, plan of exchange or plan of conversion
which, if effected, would result in a “Roll-Up Transaction”, as defined in the
Articles of Incorporation, then any such transaction shall be subject to and
effected strictly in compliance with the provisions applicable to Roll-Up
Transactions set forth in Section 13.3 of the Articles of Incorporation.

13.05       Entire Agreement.  This
Agreement and exhibits attached hereto constitute the entire Agreement of the
Partners and supersede all prior written agreements (including, without
limitation, the Original Agreement) and prior and contemporaneous oral
agreements, understandings and negotiations with respect to the subject matter
hereof, except as otherwise set forth herein.


13.06       Pronouns and Plurals.  When
the context in which words are used in the Agreement indicates that such is the
intent, words in the singular number shall include the plural and the masculine

13.08       Counterparts.  This

parties shall not have signed the same counterpart.


13.09       Governing  Law.  This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Texas; provided, however, that any cause of action for violation of

13.10       Arbitration.  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, all claims, disputes and
controversies between the parties hereto (including, without limitation, any
claims, disputes and controversies between the Partnership and any one or more
of the Partners and between or among any Partners) arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement or the Partnership created hereby, or any act or
failure to act by the Company, the General Partner or any other Partner
hereunder, shall be resolved by binding arbitration in Dallas, Texas by the
American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”),
in accordance with this Section 13.10. 
Any arbitration called for by this Section 13.10 shall be conducted in
accordance with the following procedures:


(a)           Any
party hereto (the “Requesting Party”)
may demand arbitration pursuant to this Section 13.10 at any time by giving
written notice of such demand (the “Demand Notice”)
to all other Partners and (if the Requesting Party is not the Partnership) to
the Partnership which Demand Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the
nature of the claim, dispute or controversy.


(b)           Within
15 days after the giving of a Demand Notice or such additional time as required
by the AAA, the AAA shall select and designate in writing three reputable,
disinterested individuals willing to act as an arbitrator of the claim, dispute
or controversy in question.


(c)           The
presentations of the parties hereto in the arbitration proceeding shall be
commenced and completed within sixty (60) days after the selection of the
arbitration panel pursuant to subsection (b) above, and the arbitration panel
shall render its decision (and specify in reasonable detail its reasons 



 44
 






 



therefor) in writing
within thirty (30) days after the completion of such presentations.  Any decision concurred in by any two (2) of
the arbitrators shall constitute the decision of the arbitration panel, and
unanimity shall not be required.


(d)           The
arbitration panel shall include in its decision a direction that all of the
attorneys’ fees and costs of any party or parties and the costs of such
arbitration be paid by the losing party or parties in the arbitration.  On the application of a party before or after
the initial decision of the arbitration panel, and proof of its attorneys’ fees
and costs, the arbitration panel shall order the other party to make any
payments directed pursuant to the preceding sentence.


Any decision rendered by the arbitration panel in
accordance herewith shall be final and binding on the parties hereto, and
judgment thereon may be entered by any state or federal court of competent
jurisdiction.  Arbitration shall be the
exclusive method available for resolution of claims, disputes and controversies
arising between and among the parties relating to this Agreement and the conduct
of the parties hereto in relation to Partnership matters, and the Company, the
Partnership and its Partners stipulate that the provisions hereof shall be a
complete defense to any suit, action or proceeding in any court or before any
administrative or arbitration tribunal with respect to any such claim,
controversy or dispute.  The provisions
of this Section 13.10 shall survive the dissolution of the Partnership.


Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give the
arbitrators any authority, power or right to alter, change, amend, modify, add
to, or subtract from any of the provisions of this Agreement.


13.11       Vote of Affiliated Limited Partners.  Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in each instance in
which the consent, approval or vote of Limited Partners is required hereunder,
any Partnership Interest held as a Limited Partner by any Affiliate of the
Sponsor shall not be included for purposes of calculating whether the requisite
approval of Partners is obtained unless, as of the date of determination, there
are no Limited Partners entitled to vote or consent who are not Affiliates of
the Sponsor.


13.12       Acknowledgement as to Exculpation and Indemnification.  THE
PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS EXCULPATION
AND INDEMNIFICATION IN RESPECT OF THE ACTIONS OR OMISSIONS OF THE GENERAL
