    Exhibit
      10.13

     

    
      THIRD
        AMENDMENT

      TO
        THE

      WEINGARTEN
        REALTY INVESTORS

      SUPPLEMENTAL
        EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN

      

      WHEREAS,
        Weingarten Realty Investors (the “Sponsor”) adopted the Weingarten
        Realty Investors Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “Plan”), adopted
        September 1, 2002; and

      

      WHEREAS,
        the Sponsor desires to amend the Plan to clarify that amounts which
        in
        prior years have been electively deferred by certain Participants are to
        be
        treated as a separate benefit;

      

      NOW,
        THEREFORE, the Sponsor amends the Plan as follows:

      

      Effective
        January 1, 2004, Article III, Section 3.1 of the Plan is
        amended by the addition of the following paragraph:

      

      The
        Administrator shall maintain a Deferral Contribution Account
        for each Participant who has made elective deferrals to the Plan. The initial
        balance in each Deferral Contribution Account shall be determined, as of
        December 31, 2003, by the Administrator. Each Deferral Contribution Account
        shall be adjusted thereafter to reflect interest at the rate specified in
        Section 5.2(b), distributions and any other appropriate adjustments as
        administratively determined in the discretion of the Administrator. A
        Participant shall be entitled to the amount credited to the Participant’s
        Deferral Contribution Account in addition to the Supplemental Benefit provided
        hereunder. A Participant’s Deferral Account shall not be considered part of such
        Participant’s funded Supplemental Benefit for purposes of determining the amount
        of Employer Credits under this Section 3.1, but shall be payable at the time
        a
        Participant’s Supplemental Benefit is payable. 

      

      

      IN
        WITNESS
        WHEREOF, the Sponsor has executed this instrument this 22
        day of October, 2004.

      RECITALS

      

      Weingarten
        Realty Investors (“Employer”), a Texas Real Estate Investment Trust, hereby
        establishes the Weingarten Realty Investors Retirement Benefit Restoration
        Plan
        (“Plan”).

      

      The
        purpose of the Plan is to provide eligible employees a supplemental benefit
        equal to the additional retirement benefit he or she would have received
        under
        the Weingarten Realty Investors Retirement Plan if such Participant’s benefit
        were determined under the provisions of such plan in effect on December 31,
        2001
        (“Defined Benefit Formula”).

      

      The
        Plan
        is an unfunded arrangement established and maintained primarily for the benefit
        of a select group of management or highly compensated employees and is intended
        to be exempt from the participation, vesting, funding, and fiduciary
        requirements set forth in Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security
        Act
        of 1974, as amended.

      

      NOW
        THEREFORE,
        the
        Employer hereby adopts the Plan effective September 1, 2002, as
        follows:

                  The Employer shall credit to the Account of each Participant an
                  amount
                  each year designed to provide the Participant a benefit equal to
                  the

                  the

                  be
                  calculated as an actuarially determined level percentage of the

                  remaining cash Compensation to satisfy all applicable Withholding
                  Requirements as they come due, the Employer reserves the right

                  satisfy all applicable Withholding Requirements as they come due,
                  even
                  after reducing a Participant’s Deferrals, such Participant shall be
                  obligated to remit payment to the Employer, in such form as is

                  Benefits payable under this Plan shall be paid from the general
                  assets of
                  the Employer, or at the discretion of the Employer, from assets
                  set aside
                  in a trust for deferring the cost of providing the benefits due
                  under this
                  Plan; provided, however, that no person entitled to payment under
                  this
                  Plan shall have any claim, right, priority, security interest,
                  or other
                  interest in any fund, trust, account, or other asset of the Employer
                  that
                  may be looked to for such payment. The liability for the payment
                  of
                  benefits hereunder shall be evidenced only by this Plan and by
                  the
                  existence of a bookkeeping accounts established and maintained
                  by the
                  Employer for purposes of this Plan. It is the express intention
                  of the
                  parties hereto that this arrangement shall be unfunded for tax
                  purposes

                  reconsideration under this section must be filed by written notice
                  within
                  sixty (60) days after receipt by the claimant of the notice of

                  Upon receipt of an appeal the Administrator shall promptly take
                  action to
                  give due consideration to the appeal. Such consideration may include
                  a
                  hearing of the parties involved, if the Administrator feels such
                  a hearing
                  is necessary. In preparing for this appeal the claimant shall be
                  given the

                  be
                  binding on all parties. The decision shall be written in a manner
                  calculated to be understood by the claimant and shall specifically
                  state
                  its reasons and pertinent Plan provisions on which it relies. The
                  Administrator's decision shall be issued within sixty (60) days
                  after the
                  appeal is filed, except that if a hearing is held the decision
                  may be
                  issued within one hundred twenty (120) days after the appeal is
                  filed.

                  a

                  unless

                  Liability.
                  No liability shall attach to or be incurred by any manager of the

                  and as a
                  condition precedent to the establishment of this Plan or the receipt
                  of
                  benefits thereunder, or both, such liability, if any, is expressly
                  waived
                  and released by each Participant and by any and all persons claiming
                  under

                  release
                  shall be conclusively evidenced by any act or participation in
                  or the
                  acceptance of benefits or the making of any election under this
                  Plan.

                  Should
                  the Employer be considered insolvent (as defined by the Trust),
                  the
                  Employer, through its Board and chief executive officer, shall

                  the sole
                  authority to modify, amend or terminate this Plan; provided, however,
                  that
                  any modification or termination of this Plan shall not reduce,
                  without the
                  consent of a Participant, a Participant's right to any amounts
                  already

                  a

                  under
                  or concerning the terms of this Plan shall be decided by the

                Governing

                  This Plan shall be governed by, construed and administered in accordance
                  with the applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
                  Security
                  Act of 1974, as amended, and any other applicable federal law,
                  provided,
                  however, that to the extent not preempted by federal law this Plan
                  shall
                  be governed by, construed and administered under the laws of the
                  State of

                  law.

                Severability.
                  If any provision of this Plan is held invalid or unenforceable,
                  its
                  invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision
                  of
                  this Plan and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such
                  provision had not been included therein. If the inclusion of any
                  Employee
                  (or Employees) as a Participant under this Plan would cause the
                  Plan to
                  fail to be maintained solely for a select group of highly compensated
                  or
                  management employees, then the Plan shall be severed with respect
                  to such
                  Employee or Employees who shall be considered to be participating
                  in a
                  separate arrangement.
