 1. Amendments to Credit Agreement.

  
 (a) The following defined terms are hereby added to Section

2004. 
  
 (b) The following paragraph is hereby added to the end
of Section 1.3 of the Credit Agreement immediately following the first paragraph thereof:

“Accounting for Sales of Real Estate,” issued October, 1982 (“FAS 66”) shall, for the duration of this Agreement, not be reflected
for purposes of calculating the financial covenants contained in Sections 7 and 8 hereof and of calculating any of the components related thereto. For purposes of clarification, all real estate transactions closing after June 30, 2004 shall, for the
duration of this Agreement, be accounted for using standard GAAP accounting (including application, as applicable, of paragraphs 25 to 29 of FAS 66).” 
  
 (c) The text of Section 7.11(g) of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 
  
 “Tangible Net Worth. At all times the Tangible Net Worth shall
be greater than or equal to the sum of (i) $1,450,000,000.00, plus (ii) an amount equal to 85.0% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Consolidated Parties in connection with any Equity Issuance subsequent to the Closing Date calculated on
a cumulative basis as of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Consolidated Parties following the Closing Date, less (iii) (A) to the extent the aggregate Dollar amount paid by the Consolidated Parties for the purchase, redemption, retirement
or acquisition of Capital Stock of the Principal Borrower following the Closing Date is equal to or less than the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Consolidated Parties in connection with all Equity Issuances subsequent to the Closing Date (and
calculated as set forth above), an amount equal to 85.0% of the aggregate Dollar amount so paid by the Consolidated Parties for such purchase, redemption, retirement or acquisition, and (B) to the extent the aggregate Dollar amount paid by the
Consolidated Parties for the purchase, redemption, retirement or acquisition of Capital Stock of the Principal Borrower following the Closing Date is in excess of the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Consolidated Parties in connection with all
Equity Issuances subsequent to the Closing Date (and calculated as set forth above), 100.0% of such excess amount.” 
  
 (d) The text of Section 7.11(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 
  
 “Interest Coverage Ratio. For calculations made during or with
respect to any calendar quarter ending during the Subject Period (including, without limitation, the calendar quarter ending on the last day of the Subject Period), the Interest Coverage Ratio shall be greater than 2.05 to 1.00. At all other times
during the term hereof, the Interest Coverage Ratio shall be greater than 2.10 to 1.00.” 
  
 (e) The text of Section 7.11(k) of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 
  
 “Restricted Payments. The Credit Parties will not permit the Consolidated Parties to, directly or indirectly, declare, order, make or set
apart any sum for or pay any Restricted Payments to the extent that, as of the end of the calendar quarter most recently ended, the aggregate Restricted Payments made during the period commencing as of (and including) April 1, 2003 and extending
through the end of such quarter is in excess of an amount equal to the greater of (i) the sum of (A) an amount equal to the amount of dividends required to be paid by Highwood Properties during such period to retain its status as a REIT and to meet
the distribution requirements of Section 857 of the Code, plus (B) $5,000,000 and (ii) ninety-five percent (95%) of the sum equal to (A) one hundred percent (100%) of Cash Available for Distribution for the date of calculation, plus
(B) 25% of Net Asset Sales Proceeds derived from sales of Speculative Land during such period, plus (C) 70% of Net Asset Sales Proceeds derived from sales of Properties of the Consolidated Parties not considered to be Speculative Land during
such period; provided, however, that, for purposes of calculating the amount set forth in subclause (ii), the amount added pursuant to items (B) and (C) thereof (the items concerning Net Asset Sales Proceeds) shall not exceed, in the aggregate, (1)
for any calculation date during the period commencing as of the date hereof and ending as of June 15, 2004, $50,000,000; (2) for any calculation date during the period commencing as of June 15, 2004 and ending as of June 30, 2005, $100,000,000; or
(3) for any calculation date during the period commencing June 30, 2005 and ending as of the date 36 calendar months following the date hereof, $150,000,000.”

Default that may have existed during the term of the Credit Agreement resulting from the company’s restatement of its financial statements and disclosures based on the application of paragraphs 25 to 29 of FAS 66 prior to the inclusion of the
second paragraph of Section 1.3 thereof. For purposes of clarification, no Event of Default is being waived to the extent such Event of Default existed or may have existed pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement if such Event of Default would
have existed regardless of the application or non-application of paragraphs 25 to 29 of FAS 66 pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.3 of the Credit Agreement, as amended. 
  
 3. Conditions Precedent. The effectiveness of this Third Amendment is subject to receipt by the Administrative
