    Weingarten
      Realty Investors 

    Deferred
      Compensation Plan

    

    

    WHEREAS,
      Weingarten Realty Investors (the “Employer”) sponsors the Weingarten Realty
      Investors Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) under the terms of which
      eligible participants are entitled to defer a portion of their compensation;
      and

     

    WHEREAS,
      the
      Employer desires to amend certain Plan provisions relating to the payment of
      Plan benefits; 

    

    NOW
      THEREFORE,
      the
      Employer amends the Plan as follows, effective as of January 1,
      2005.

    

    1. Article
      I of the Plan is hereby amended by deleting Sections 1.14 and 1.15 therefrom
      in
      their entirety. 

    

    2. Article
      VII of the Plan is hereby amended to be and read as follows, effective January
      1, 2005:

    

    Article
      VII - Distributions

     

    7.1 Distribution
      Election. 

     

    	(a)  	
            General
              Rule.
              Distribution of the Participant’s Accounts shall be made in accordance
              with the Participant’s election with respect to the form of payment. The
              Participant may make a separate election as to the form of distribution
              in
              the event of death and the time at which distribution is to commence
              following death. Such elections shall be made by the Participant at
              the
              time the Participant makes his or her initial Deferral Election. A
              Participant may modify his or her previously-made elections relating
              to
              the form of distribution and may modify the time at which distribution
              would otherwise commence under Sections 7.2 or 7.3 hereof in accordance
              with Section 7.1(b). Notwithstanding the preceding, if an Eligible
              Employee is participating in the Plan in 2005 or 2006 and has not
              previously designated the form of distribution of his or her Accounts
              or
              desires to modify a previously-filed distribution election, he or she
              must
              make or modify such an election, as the case may be, and file it with
              the
              Administrator on or before December 31, 2006; provided, however, that
              a
              Participant may not file a modified distribution election in 2006 that
              has
              the effect of deferring payment of amounts the Participant would otherwise
              receive in 2006 or cause payments to be made in 2006 that would otherwise
              be made subsequent to 2006. The elections referred to in the immediately
              preceding sentence shall not be required to meet the requirements of
              Section 7.1(b). If the Administrator separately accounts for Deferrals
              in
              each Plan Year, the Participant may make separate distribution elections
              with respect to each Plan Year’s Deferral Election, in which case each
              separate distribution election shall be effective with respect to the
              Deferrals to which the election relates.

    	(b)  	
            Modification
              To Distribution Date or Form of Payment.
              Except as may be permitted in Section 7.1(a) hereof, any election by
              a
              Participant to modify a previously-filed distribution election or to
              modify the time distribution would otherwise commence under Section
              7.2 or
              7.3 hereof is ineffective unless all of the following requirements
              are
              satisfied:

          

     

    	(i)  	
            Such
              modification may not be effective for at least twelve (12) months after
              the date on which the modification is filed with the
              Administrator.

          

     

    	(ii)  	
            Except
              in the case of modifications relating to distributions on account of
              death
              or Disability, the modification must provide that payment will not
              commence for at least five (5) years from the date payment would otherwise
              have been made or commenced.

          

     

    	(iii)  	
            A
              modification related to distribution to be made at a specified time
              or
              under a fixed schedule may not be made less than twelve (12) months
              prior
              to the date of the first otherwise scheduled payment.
              

          

     

    	(iv)  	
            Such
              modification may not permit acceleration of the time or schedule of
              any
              payment under the Plan, except as may be permitted pursuant to applicable
              Treasury Regulations.

          

     

    	(c)  	
            Distribution
              to Key Employees.
              Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a
              Participant is a Key Employee and separates from service for a reason
              other than death or Disability, distribution of such Participant’s
              Accounts may not commence earlier than six (6) months from the date
              of his
              or her separation from service. Any payment that would have been made
              within the first six months following the date on which the Participant
              separated from service without regard to this subsection (c) shall
              be made
              on the first day of the month following the date that is six months
              following the date on which the Participant separated from
              service.

          

     

    7.2 Payment
      of Retirement, Education, and Fixed Period Accounts.

     

    	(a)

              by the Participant: (i) in a lump sum payment or (ii) in annual
              installments over a period of up to twenty (20) years. If the Participant
              has not made a valid election as to the form of payment of his Retirement
              Account, payment shall be made in one lump
              sum.

              of the month immediately following the month in which the Participant
              Retires (or as soon as administratively feasible thereafter); provided,
              however, that the Participant may elect, in accordance with Section
              7.1(b), to defer payment to a later date. If an installment form of
              distribution is elected, annual installment payments subsequent to
              the
              first payment shall be made on each succeeding anniversary of the date
              the
              first payment was made.

    Distribution
      of an Education Account will commence as scheduled without regard to whether
      the
      Student dies prior to attaining age eighteen (18) or whether the Student attends
      college or incurs any post-secondary educational costs; provided, however,
      that
      the Participant may elect, in accordance with Section 7.1(b), to defer payment

                and effective date of amendment.
                This Amendment to the Plan is adopted to reflect certain provisions
                of the
                Final Regulations under Code Sections 401(k) and 401(m) that were
                published on December 29, 2004 (hereinafter referred to as the "Final

                with the requirements of these provisions. This Amendment shall be
                effective with respect to Plan Years beginning after December 31,
                2005

                This Amendment shall supersede the provisions of the Plan to the

                those provisions are inconsistent with the provisions of this

                of a
                401(k) plan; if the Plan to which this Amendment relates is not a

              Deferral
                elections.
                A
                cash or deferred arrangement ("CODA") is an arrangement under which
                eligible Employees may make elective deferral elections. Such elections
                cannot relate to compensation that is currently available prior to
                the
                adoption or effective date of the CODA. In addition, except for
                occasional, bona fide administrative considerations, contributions
                made
                pursuant to such an election cannot precede the earlier of (1) the
                performance of services relating to the contribution and (2) when
                the
                compensation that is subject to the election would be currently available
                to the Employee in the absence of an election to defer.

              Vesting
                provisions.
                Elective Contributions are always fully vested and nonforfeitable.
                The
                Plan shall disregard Elective Contributions in applying the vesting
                provisions of the Plan to other contributions or benefits under Code
                Section 411(a)(2). However, the Plan shall otherwise take a participant's
                Elective Contributions into account in determining the Participant's
                vested benefits under the Plan. Thus, for example, the Plan shall
                take
                Elective Contributions into account in determining whether a Participant
                has a nonforfeitable right to contributions under the Plan for purposes
                of
                forfeitures, and for applying provisions permitting the repayment
                of
                distributions to have forfeited amounts restored, and the provisions
                of
                Code Sections 410(a)(5)(D)(iii) and 411(a)(6)(D)(iii) permitting
                a plan to
                disregard certain service completed prior to breaks-in-service (sometimes
                referred to as "the rule of
                parity").

              The

      Public Law 89-286, or similar legislation can be taken into account for a Plan
      Year for an NHCE to the extent such contributions do not exceed 10 percent
      (10%)

                1.401(k)-3, 1.401(m)-3, or 1.401(k)-4. Thus, for example, matching
                contributions that are made pursuant to Regulation Section 1.401(k)-3(c)
                cannot be taken into account under the ADP test. Similarly, if a
                plan
                switches from the current year testing method to the prior year testing
                method pursuant to Regulation Section 1.401(k)-2(c), Qualified Nonelective
                Contributions that are taken into account under the current year
                testing
                method for a year may not be taken into account under the prior year

                arrangements described in Code Section 401(k), that are maintained by
                the same Employer, shall be determined as if such Elective Contributions
                (and, if applicable, such Qualified Nonelective Contributions and/or
                Qualified Matching Contributions) were made under a single arrangement.
                If
                an HCE participates in two or more cash or deferred arrangements
                of the
                Employer that have different Plan Years, then all Elective Contributions
                made during the Plan Year being tested under all such cash or deferred
                arrangements shall be aggregated, without regard to the plan years
                of the
                other plans. However, for Plan Years beginning before the effective
                date
                of this Amendment, if the plans have different Plan Years, then all
                such
                cash or deferred arrangements ending with or within the same calendar
                year
                shall be treated as a single cash or deferred arrangement. Notwithstanding
                the foregoing, certain plans shall be treated as separate if mandatorily

    ADJUSTMENT
      TO ADP TEST

    

    
      	
              6.1

            	
              Distribution
                of Income attributable to Excess Contributions.
                Distributions of Excess Contributions must be adjusted for income
                (gain or
                loss), including an adjustment for income for the period between
                the end
                of the Plan Year and the date of the distribution (the "gap period").
                The
                Administrator has the discretion to determine and allocate income
                using
                any of the methods set forth below:

            

    

    

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              Reasonable
                method of allocating income.
                The Administrator may use any reasonable method for computing the
                income
                allocable to Excess Contributions, provided that the method does
                not
                violate Code Section 401(a)(4), is used consistently for all Participants
                and for all corrective distributions under the Plan for the Plan
                Year, and
                is used by the Plan for allocating income to Participant’s accounts. A
                Plan will not fail to use a reasonable method for computing the income
                allocable to Excess Contributions merely because the income allocable
                to
                Excess Contributions is determined on a date that is no more than
                seven
                (7) days before the distribution.

              Alternative
                method of allocating income.
                The Administrator may allocate income to Excess Contributions for
                the Plan
                Year by multiplying the income for the Plan Year allocable to the
                Elective
                Contributions and other amounts taken into account under the ADP
                test
                (including contributions made for the Plan Year), by a fraction,
                the
                numerator of which is the Excess Contributions for the Employee for
                the
                Plan Year, and the denominator of which is the sum of
                the:

              Account
                balance attributable to Elective Contributions and other amounts
                taken
                into account under the ADP test as of the beginning of the Plan Year,
                and

            

    

    

    
      	 	
              (2)
                

            	
              Any
                additional amount of such contributions made for the Plan
                Year.

            

    

    

    
      	 	
              (c)

            	
              Safe
                harbor method of allocating gap period income.
                The
                Administrator may use the safe harbor method in this paragraph to
                determine income on Excess Contributions for the gap period. Under
                this
                safe harbor method, income on Excess Contributions for the gap period
                is
                equal to ten percent (10%) of the income allocable to Excess Contributions
                for the Plan Year that would be determined under paragraph (b) above,
                multiplied by the number of calendar months that have elapsed since
                the
                end of the Plan Year. For purposes of calculating the number of calendar
                months that have elapsed under the safe harbor method, a corrective
                distribution that is made on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of
                a month
                is treated as made on the last day of the preceding month and a
                distribution made after the fifteenth day of a month is treated as
                made on
                the last day of the month.

              Alternative
                method for allocating Plan Year and gap period income.
                The Administrator may determine the income for the aggregate of the
                Plan
                Year and the gap period, by applying the alternative method provided
                by
                paragraph (b) above to this aggregate period. This is accomplished
                by (1)
                substituting the income for the Plan Year and the gap period, for
                the
                income for the Plan Year, and (2) substituting the amounts taken
                into
                account under the ADP test for the Plan Year and the gap period,
                for the
                amounts taken into account under the ADP test for the Plan Year in
                determining the fraction that is multiplied by that
                income.

                contribution, then the provisions of the Plan for the corrective
                contributions shall be applied by limiting the contribution made
                on behalf
                of any NHCE pursuant to such provisions to an amount that does not
                exceed

                a Plan
                Year is not taken into account under the Actual Contribution Percentage
                (ACP) test for an NHCE to the extent it exceeds the greatest
                of:

            

    

    

    
      	 	
              (a)
                

            	
              five
                percent (5%) of the NHCE's Code Section 414(s) compensation for the
                Plan
                Year;

              the
                NHCE's Elective Contributions for the Plan Year;

                product of two (2) times the Plan’s "representative matching rate" and the
                NHCE's Elective Contributions for the Plan
                Year.

            

    

    

    For
      purposes of this Section, the Plan’s "representative matching rate" is the
      lowest "matching rate" for any eligible NHCE among a group of NHCEs that
      consists of half of all eligible NHCEs in the Plan for the Plan Year who make
      Elective Contributions for the Plan Year (or, if greater, the lowest "matching
      rate" for all eligible NHCEs in the Plan who are employed by the Employer on
      the
      last day of the Plan Year and who make Elective Contributions for the Plan
      Year).

    

    For
      purposes of this Section, the "matching rate" for an Employee generally is
      the
      matching contributions made for such Employee divided by the Employee’s Elective
      Contributions for the Plan Year. If the matching rate is not the same for all
      levels of Elective Contributions for an Employee, then the Employee’s "matching
      rate" is determined assuming that an Employee’s Elective Contributions are equal
      to six percent (6%) of Code Section 414(s) compensation.

    

    If
      the
      Plan provides a match with respect to the sum of the Employee’s after-tax
      Employee contributions and Elective Contributions, then for purposes of this
      Section, that sum is substituted for the amount of the Employee’s Elective
      Contributions in subsections (b) & (c) above and in determining the
      "matching rate," and Employees who make either after-tax Employee contributions
      or Elective Contributions are taken into account in determining the Plan's
      "representative matching rate." Similarly, if the Plan provides a match with
      respect to the Employee’s after-tax Employee contributions, but not Elective
      Contributions, then for purposes of this subsection, the Employee’s after-tax
      Employee contributions are substituted for the amount of the Employee’s Elective
      Contributions in subsections (b) & (c) above and in determining the
      "matching rate," and Employees who make after-tax Employee contributions are
      taken into account in determining the Plan's "representative matching
      rate."

                matching contributions (as defined in Regulation Section 1.401(m)-1(a)(2))
                taken into account in determining the ACR for the eligible NHCE for

                for the Plan Year.

              Distribution
                of Income attributable to Excess Aggregate Contributions.
                Distributions of Excess Aggregate Contributions must be adjusted
                for
                income (gain or loss), including an adjustment for income for the
                period

                (the
                "gap period"). For the purpose of this Section, "income" shall be
                determined and allocated in accordance with the provisions of Section
                6.1
                of this Amendment, except that such Section shall be applied by
                substituting "Excess Contributions" with "Excess Aggregate Contributions"
                and by substituting amounts taken into account under the ACP test

                If a failed ACP test is to be corrected by making an Employer
                contribution, then the provisions of the Plan for the corrective
                contributions shall be applied by limiting the contribution made
                on behalf
                of any NHCE pursuant to such provisions to an amount that does not
                exceed

              Applicability.
                The provisions of this Article IX apply if the Plan uses the alternative
                method of satisfying the Actual Deferral Percentage (ADP) test set
                forth
                in Code Section 401(k)(12) (ADP Test Safe Harbor) and/or the Actual
                Contribution Percentage (ACP) test set forth in Code Section 401(m)(11)
                (ACP Test Safe Harbor).

              Elimination
                of conditions on matching contributions. Unless
                otherwise provided in Section 2.2 of this Amendment, the provisions
                of
                subsection (a) below shall apply. However, if the Employer so elects
                in
                Section 2.2 of this Amendment, then the provisions of subsection
                (b) or
                (c) below shall apply.

              Default
                provision. If, prior to the date this Amendment has been executed,
                an ADP
                Test Safe Harbor notice has been given for a Plan Year for which
                this
                Amendment is effective (see Amendment Section 1.1) and such notice
                provides that there are no allocation conditions imposed on any matching
                contributions under the Plan, then (1) the Plan will be an ACP Test
                Safe
                Harbor plan, provided the ACP Test Safe Harbor requirements are met
                and
                (2) the Plan will not impose any allocation conditions on matching
                contributions. However, if, prior to the date this Amendment has
                been
                executed, an ADP Test Safe Harbor notice has been given for a Plan
                Year
                for which this Amendment is effective and such notice provides that
                there
                are allocation conditions imposed on any matching contributions under
                the
                Plan, then the provisions of this Amendment do not modify any such
                allocation conditions or provisions for that Plan Year and the Plan
                must
                satisfy the ACP Test for such Plan Year using the current year testing
                method. With respect to any Plan Year beginning after the date this
                Amendment has been executed, if the Plan uses the ADP Test Safe Harbor
                and
                provides for matching contributions, then (1) the Plan will be an
                ACP Test
                Safe Harbor plan, provided the ACP Test Safe Harbor requirements
                are met
                and (2) the Plan will not impose any allocation conditions on matching
                contributions.

    (b)
      Retention of allocation conditions. If the Employer so elects in Section 2.2
      of
      this Amendment, then the Plan will retain any allocation conditions contained
      in
      the Plan with regard to matching contributions for any Plan Year for which
      this
      Amendment is effective. In that case, the Plan must satisfy the ACP Test for
      each such Plan Year.

    

    (c)
      Elimination of allocation conditions. If the Employer so elects in Section
      2.2
      of this Amendment, then (1) the Plan will be an ACP Test Safe Harbor plan,
      provided the ACP Test Safe Harbor requirements are met, and (2) the Plan will
      not impose any allocation conditions on matching contributions.

                Catch-up contributions.
                If the Plan provides for ADP Test Safe Harbor matching contributions
                or
                ACP Test Safe Harbor matching contributions, then catch-up contributions
                (as defined in Code Section 414(v)) will be taken into account in
                applying
                such matching contributions under the
                Plan.

                and below, the Plan will fail to satisfy the requirements of Code
                Section
                401(k)(12) and this Section for a Plan Year unless such provisions
                remain

                Plan
                will not fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 9.4 of this
                Amendment
                merely because the Plan Year has less than twelve (12) months, provided

                requirements (determined without regard to Regulation Section
                1.401(k)-3(g)) for the immediately following Plan Year (or for the

                The Employer may amend the Plan during a Plan Year to reduce or eliminate
                prospectively any or all matching contributions under the Plan (including
                any ADP Test Safe Harbor matching contributions) provided: (a) the

                which

                effective date, and informs Participants that they will have a reasonable
                opportunity to modify their cash or deferred elections and, if applicable,
                after-tax Employee contribution elections; (b) Participants have
                a
                reasonable opportunity (including a reasonable period after receipt
                of the
                supplemental notice) prior to the effective date of the amendment
                to
                modify their cash or deferred elections and, if applicable, after-tax
                Employee contribution elections; and (c) the amendment is not effective
                earlier than the later of: (i) thirty (30) days after the Plan
                Administrator gives supplemental notice; or (ii) the date the Employer
                adopts the amendment. An Employer which amends its Plan to eliminate

                and
                the termination is on account of an acquisition or disposition transaction
