         Summit Properties Partnership, L.P., a limited partnership duly
organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (hereinafter referred to as
the "Partnership," which term includes any successor entity under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE &
COMPANY, or registered assigns, the principal sum of $25,000,000, on the Stated
Maturity Date specified above (or any Redemption Date or Repayment Date, each as
defined on the reverse hereof) (each such Stated Maturity Date, Redemption Date
or Repayment Date being hereinafter referred to as the "Maturity Date" with
respect to the principal repayable on such date) and to pay interest thereon, at
the Interest Rate per annum specified above, until the principal hereof is paid
or duly made available for payment, and (to the extent that the payment of such
interest shall be legally enforceable) at the Default Rate per annum specified
above on any overdue principal, premium and/or interest, including any overdue
sinking fund or redemption payment. The Partnership will pay interest in arrears
on each Interest Payment Date, if any, specified above (each, an "Interest
Payment Date"), commencing with the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding
the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Maturity Date; provided,
however, that if the Original Issue Date occurs between a Record Date (as
defined below) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest payments
will commence on the second Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original
Issue Date to the holder of this Note on the Record Date with respect to such
second Interest Payment Date. Interest on this Note will be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

         Interest on this Note will accrue from, and including, the immediately
preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided
for (or from, and including, the Original Issue Date if no interest has been
paid or duly provided for) to, but excluding, the applicable Interest Payment
Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, an "Interest Period"). The
interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest
Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions described herein, be paid to
the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is
registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or
not a Business Day, as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest
Payment Date (the "Record Date"); provided, however, that interest payable on
the Maturity Date will be payable to the person to whom the principal hereof and
premium, if any, hereon shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually
paid or duly provided for ("Defaulted Interest") will forthwith cease to be
payable to the holder on any Record Date, and shall be paid to the person in
whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a special record
date (the "Special Record Date") for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to
be fixed by the Trustee hereinafter referred to, notice whereof shall be given
to the holder of this Note by the Trustee not more than 15 days and not less
than 10 days prior to such Special Record



                                       3

Date or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with
the requirements of any securities exchange on which this Note may be listed,
and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully
provided for in the Indenture.

         Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this
Note due on the Maturity Date or any prior date on which the principal or an
installment of principal of this Note becomes due and payable, whether by the
declaration of acceleration or otherwise, will be made in immediately available
funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note (and, with respect to any
applicable repayment of this Note, upon presentation and surrender of this Note
and a duly completed election form as contemplated on the reverse hereof) at the
office or agency maintained by the Partnership for that purpose in the Borough
of Manhattan, The City of New York, currently the office of the Trustee or the
Designated Agent; provided, however, that if the Specified Currency specified
above is other than United States dollars and such payment is to be made in the
Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such
payment may be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an
account with a bank designated by the holder hereof at least 15 calendar days
prior to the Maturity Date, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities
therefor and that this Note (and, if applicable, a duly completed repayment
election form) is presented and surrendered at the aforementioned office or
agency maintained by the Partnership in time for the Trustee or the Designated
Agent to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal
procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date other than the
Maturity Date will be made at the aforementioned office or agency maintained by
the Partnership or, at the option of the Partnership, by check mailed to the
address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the
Security Register maintained by the Trustee or the Designated Agent; provided,
however, that a holder of U.S. $10,000,000 (or, if the Specified Currency is
other than United States dollars, the equivalent thereof in the Specified
Currency) or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes (whether having
identical or different terms and provisions) will be entitled to receive
interest payments on any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date by
wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer
instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee or Designated Agent
not less than 15 calendar days prior to such Interest Payment Date. Any such
wire transfer instructions received by the Trustee or the Designated Agent shall
remain in effect until revoked by such holder.

         If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that
is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any,
and/or interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same
force and effect as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest
shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after such
Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the date of
such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.

         As used herein, "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or
Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions
are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The
City of New York or Charlotte, North Carolina; provided, however, that if the
Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, such day is also not a
day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation
or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center (as defined below)
of the country issuing the Specified Currency (or, if the Specified Currency is
European Currency Units



                                       4

("ECU"), such day is not a day that appears as an ECU no-settlement day on the
display designated as "ISDE" on the Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service (or a day
so designated by the ECU Banking Association), or, if ECU non-settlement days do
not appear on that page (and are not so designated), is not a day on which
payments in ECU cannot be settled in the international interbank market).
Principal Financial Center means the capital city of the country issuing the
Specified Currency, except that with respect to United States dollars,
Australian dollars, Deutsche marks, Dutch guilders, Italian lire, Portuguese
escudos, South African rand and Swiss francs, the Principal Financial Center
shall be The City of New York, Sydney, Toronto, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Milan,
London, Johannesburg and Zurich, respectively.

         The Partnership is obligated to make payments of principal, premium, if
any, and interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency (or, if the
Specified Currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the
payment of public and private debts, in such other coin or currency of the
country which issued the Specified Currency as at the time of such payment is
legal tender for the payment of such debts). If the Specified Currency is other
than United States dollars, except as provided below, any such amounts so
payable by the Partnership will be converted by the Exchange Rate Agent
specified above into United States dollars for payment to the holder of this
Note.

         If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the
holder of this Note may elect to receive such amounts in such Specified
Currency. If the holder of this Note shall not have duly made an election to
receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any,
and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency, any United
States dollar amount to be received by the holder of this Note will be based on
the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate
Agent at approximately 11:00 A.M., The City of New York time, on the second
Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three recognized foreign
exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the
Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Partnership for the purchase by the
quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for
settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of such Specified
Currency payable to all holders of Foreign Currency Notes scheduled to receive
United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to
execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the holder of
this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not
available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.

         If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the
holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any
payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note
in the Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to
the Trustee or the Designated Agent at its corporate trust office in The City of
New York on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days
prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Such written request may be
mailed or hand delivered or sent by cable, telex or other form of facsimile
transmission. The holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified
portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such
principal, premium, if any, and/or interest and need not file a separate
election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by
written notice to the Trustee or the Designated Agent, but written notice of any
such revocation must be received by the Trustee or the



                                       5
<PAGE>   6

Designated Agent on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15
calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be.

         If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars or a
composite currency and the holder of this Note shall have duly made an election
to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if
any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency and if
the Specified Currency is not available due to the imposition of exchange
controls or other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the
Partnership, the Partnership will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the
holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis
of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the second Business Day prior
to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on
the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate or as otherwise
specified on the face hereof. The "Market Exchange Rate" for the Specified
Currency means the noon dollar buying rate in The City of New York for cable
transfers for such Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes by (or
if not so certified, as otherwise determined by) the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York. Any payment made under such circumstances in United States dollars will
not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to
this Note.

         If the Specified Currency is a composite currency and the holder of
this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion
of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this
Note in the Specified Currency and if such composite currency is unavailable due
to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the
reasonable control of the Partnership, then the Partnership will be entitled to
satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payment in
United States dollars. The amount of each payment in United States dollars shall
be computed by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis of the equivalent of the
composite currency in United States dollars. The component currencies of the
composite currency for this purpose (collectively, the "Component Currencies"
and each, a "Component Currency") shall be the currency amounts that were
components of the composite currency as of the last day on which the composite
currency was used. The equivalent of the composite currency in United States
dollars shall be calculated by aggregating the United States dollar equivalents
of the Component Currencies. The United States dollar equivalent of each of the
Component Currencies shall be determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis
of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate for each such Component
Currency, or as otherwise specified on the face hereof.

         If the official unit of any Component Currency is altered by way of
combination or subdivision, the number of units of the currency as a Component
Currency shall be divided or multiplied in the same proportion. If two or more
Component Currencies are consolidated into a single currency, the amounts of
those currencies as Component Currencies shall be replaced by an amount in such
single currency equal to the sum of the amounts of the consolidated Component
Currencies expressed in such single currency. If any Component Currency is
divided into two or more currencies, the amount of the original Component
Currency shall be replaced by the amounts of such two or more currencies, the
sum of which shall be equal to the amount of the original Component Currency.

         All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent
shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be
conclusive for all purposes and binding on the holder of this Note.

         Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set
forth on the reverse hereof and, if so specified above on the face hereof, in
the Addendum hereto, which further provisions shall have the same force and
effect as if set forth on the face hereof.

         Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained herein, if the
face of this Note specifies that an Addendum is attached hereto or that
"Other/Additional Provisions" apply to this Note, this Note shall be subject to
the terms set forth in such Addendum or such "Other/Additional Provisions."

         Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by
the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent by manual signature, this Note shall not
be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any
purpose.

                                MEDIUM-TERM NOTE
                                  (Fixed Rate)

         This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities (the
"Securities") of the Partnership issued and to be issued under an Indenture,
dated as of August 7, 1997 as supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 4 dated
as of April 20, 2000, as further amended, modified or supplemented from time to
time (the "Indenture"), between the Partnership and First Union National Bank,
as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the
Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference
is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Partnership, the Trustee and the holders
of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to
be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series of Securities
designated as "Medium-Term Notes Due Nine Months or More from Date of Issue"
(the "Notes"). All terms used but not defined in this Note or in an Addendum
hereto shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture or on the
face hereof, as the case may be.

         This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in
minimum denominations of U.S. $1,000 and integral multiples thereof or the
minimum Authorized Denomination specified on the face hereof.

         This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless otherwise
specified on the face hereof in accordance with the provisions of the following
two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or repayable prior to the Stated Maturity
Date.

         This Note will be subject to redemption at the option of the
Partnership on any date on and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any,
specified on the face hereof, in whole or from time to time in part in
increments of U.S. $1,000 or the minimum Authorized Denomination (provided that
any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S. $1,000 or such
minimum Authorized



                                       9
<PAGE>   10

Denomination), at the Redemption Price (as defined below), together with unpaid
interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption (each, a "Redemption
Date"), on notice given not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to
the Redemption Date and in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. The
"Redemption Price" shall initially be the Initial Redemption Percentage
specified on the face hereof multiplied by the unpaid principal amount of this
Note to be redeemed. The Initial Redemption Percentage shall decline at each
anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage
Reduction, if any, specified on the face hereof until the Redemption Price is
100% of the unpaid principal amount to be redeemed. In the event of redemption
of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unredeemed portion
hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this Note shall be issued in the
name of the holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.

         This Note will be subject to repayment by the Partnership at the option
of the holder hereof on the Optional Repayment Date(s), if any, specified on the
face hereof, in whole or in part in increments of U.S. $1,000 or the minimum
Authorized Denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof
shall be at least U.S. $1,000 or such minimum Authorized Denomination), at a
repayment price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be repaid,
together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for repayment
(each, a "Repayment Date"). For this Note to be repaid, the Trustee or the
Designated Agent must receive at its office in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, referred to on the face hereof, at least 30 days but not more
than 60 days prior to the Repayment Date (i) this Note and the form hereon
entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed or (ii) a telegram, telex,
facsimile transmission, or a letter from a member of a national securities
exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial
bank or trust company in the United States setting forth the name of the holder
hereof, the principal amount of this Note, the principal amount of this Note to
be repaid, the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of
this Note, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised
thereby, and a guarantee that this Note, together with the form hereon entitled
"Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed, will be received by the Trustee or
the Designated Agent not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of
such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter, provided that such
telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective if
this Note and duly completed form are received by the Trustee or the Designated
Agent by such fifth Business Day. Exercise of such repayment option by the
holder hereof will be irrevocable. In the event of repayment of this Note in
part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unrepaid portion hereof and
otherwise having the same terms as this Note shall be issued in the name of the
holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.

         If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified on the
face hereof, the amount payable to the holder of this Note in the event of
redemption, repayment or acceleration of maturity of this Note will be equal to
the sum of (i) the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (increased by any
accruals of the Discount, as defined below) and, in the event of any redemption
of this Note (if applicable), multiplied by the Initial Redemption Percentage
(as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if applicable) and
(ii) any unpaid interest on this Note accrued from the Original Issue Date to
the Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity, as the
case may be. The difference between the Issue Price and 100% of the principal
amount of this Note is referred to herein as the "Discount."

         For purposes of determining the amount of Discount that has accrued as
of any Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity of
this Note, such Discount will be accrued using a constant yield method. The
constant yield will be calculated using a 30-day month, 360-day year convention,
a compounding period that, except for the Initial Period (as defined below),
corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment Dates (with ratable
accruals within a compounding period), a coupon rate equal to the initial coupon
rate applicable to this Note and an assumption that the maturity of this Note
will not be accelerated. If the period from the Original Issue Date to the
initial Interest Payment Date (the "Initial Period") is shorter than the
compounding period for this Note, a proportionate amount of the yield for an
entire compounding period will be accrued. If the Initial Period is longer than
the compounding period, then such period will be divided into a regular
compounding period and a short period, with the short period being treated as
provided in the preceding sentence.

         If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.



                                       10
<PAGE>   11

         The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of (i) the entire
indebtedness of the Notes or (ii) certain covenants and Events of Default with
respect to the Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set
forth therein, which provisions apply to the Notes.

         The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Partnership and the rights of the holders of the Securities at any time by the
Partnership and the Trustee with the consent of the holders of not less than a
majority of the aggregate principal amount of all Securities at the time
outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the holders of
all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Partnership with certain
provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the
holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Securities of any series, in certain instances, to waive, on behalf
of all of the holders of Securities of such series, certain past defaults under
the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the holder
of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all
future holders of this Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of
transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation
of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

         No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or
of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Partnership, which
is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest
in respect of this Note at the times, places and rate or formula, and in the
coin or currency, herein prescribed.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security
Register of the Partnership upon surrender of this Note for registration of
transfer at the office or agency of the Partnership in any place where the
principal hereof and any premium or interest hereon are payable, duly endorsed
by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Partnership and the Security Registrar, duly executed by, the holder hereof
or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount,
will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
and herein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal
amount of Notes of different authorized denominations but otherwise having the
same terms and conditions, as requested by the holder hereof surrendering the
same.

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

         Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the
Partnership, the Trustee and any agent of the Partnership or the Trustee may
treat the holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner thereof for
all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Partnership,
the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
