charter of the Corporation (the “Charter”), the Board of Directors of the
Corporation (the “Board of Directors”), by unanimous written consent dated        ,
adopted resolutions designated as Special Resolutions pursuant to Section 5.11
of the Charter which classified one (1) authorized but unissued share of

Stock”) as a separate class of Preferred Stock designated as “Special Voting
Preferred Stock” and having the voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to
dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of
redemption as set forth as follows, which upon any restatement of the Charter
shall be made part of Article VI of the Charter, with any necessary or
appropriate changes to the enumeration or lettering of sections or subsections
hereof.

 

1.             Designation and Number.  A class of Preferred Stock designated as
“Special Voting Preferred Stock” is hereby established.  The number of shares constituting such class
shall be one (1). Such number of shares may be increased only by resolution of
the Board of Directors which is approved by the affirmative vote of all of the
Independent Directors.

2.             Definitions:  For purposes of the Special Voting Preferred
Stock, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

                “Board
of Directors” shall mean the Board of Directors of the Corporation or any
committee authorized by such Board of Directors, subject to applicable law, to
perform any of its responsibilities with respect to the Special Voting
Preferred Stock.

 

                “Capital
Stock” shall have the meaning set forth in the Charter.

 

                “Common
Stock” shall mean the common stock, $.01 par value per share, of the
Corporation.

 

                “Effective
Date” shall mean the date of the closing of the sale of the shares of Common
Stock pursuant to the Corporation’s initial public offering of shares of its
Common Stock

 

                “Effective
Time Units” means the Partnership Common Units that are not held by the Corporation
and are issued and outstanding as of the close of business on the Effective
Date.

 

“Independent Directors”
shall have the meaning set forth in the Charter.

 

 

 

 

“Operating Partnership”
shall mean Newkirk Master Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership
of which the Corporation is the sole general partner, and any successor
thereof.

 

                “Partnership
Agreement” shall mean the Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating
Partnership, dated         , 2005 as
the same may be amended from time to time.

 

                “Partnership
Common Units” shall have the meaning set forth in the Partnership Agreement.

 

                “Preferred
Stock” shall mean the preferred stock, $.01 par value per share, of the
Corporation.

 

                “Redemption
Date” shall mean the date upon which a Redemption Event occurs.

 

                “Redemption
Event” shall mean either of the following: 
(i) the consummation of a consolidation, merger, combination or other
transaction involving the Operating Partnership pursuant to which the
outstanding Partnership Common Units are converted or changed into or exchanged
for stock and/or other securities of any other entity and/or cash or any other
property; or (ii) the Voting Amount is reduced to zero.

 

“Voting Amount” shall mean a
number initially equal to the number of Effective Time Units which is                 ,
subject to automatic reduction (but not increase) from time to time to the
extent Effective Time Units are redeemed by the Operating Partnership pursuant
to Section 8.6A of the Partnership Agreement or are acquired by the Corporation
pursuant to Section 8.6B of the Partnership, and subject to further appropriate
adjustment as set forth in Section 4(b) below. 
As permitted by Article VI of the Charter and the Maryland General
Corporation Law (“MGCL”), the Voting Amount, and therefore the voting power of
the Special Voting Preferred Stock, as described in Section 4 below, are
dependent upon the number of outstanding Effective Time Units from time to time
which constitute “facts ascertainable outside of the charter” of the
Corporation

 

3.             Dividends and Distributions.  Except as set forth in Section 7 hereof, the
holders of shares of Special Voting Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to
any regular or special dividend payments. Without limiting the foregoing, the
holders of shares of Special Voting Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to

Corporation.

4.             Voting Rights.

(a)           With
respect to all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the
Corporation, each share of Special Voting Preferred Stock shall entitle the
holder thereof to an aggregate number of votes equal to the Voting Amount in
effect on the record date for determining the holders of stock of the
Corporation entitled to vote on such matter. The holders of shares of Special
Voting Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of shares of Common
Stock as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the
Corporation, and, except as expressly set forth in Section 4 hereof, the
holders of shares of 

 

 

2

 

Special
Voting Preferred Stock shall have no other voting rights, as a separate class
or other otherwise, including any rights to vote as a class with respect to any
extraordinary corporate action such as a merger, consolidation, dissolution,
liquidation or the like.

(b)           If
the Corporation or the Operating Partnership shall at any time after the
Effective Date subdivide or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock or
Partnership Common Units, as the case may be, declare a dividend payable in
Common Stock or Partnership Common Units, as the case may be, or effect any
similar change in its capitalization structure, the Voting Amount shall be
adjusted appropriately to allow the holders of the Special Voting Preferred
Stock, as nearly as reasonably possible, to maintain the pro rata voting rights
in the Corporation that such holders possessed immediately prior to any such
subdivision, combination, stock dividend, reorganization, reclassification or
similar event.

(c)           Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if the number of shares of Special
Voting Preferred Stock is increased and additional shares of Special Voting
Preferred Stock are issued, then at any time during which more than one share
of Special Voting Preferred Stock is issued and outstanding, each share of
Special Voting Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to a number of
votes equal to the Voting Amount in effect on the record date for determining
the holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to vote on any matter, divided
by the number of shares of Special Voting Preferred Stock which are issued and
outstanding on such date.

5.             Restrictions on Transfer.

(a)           No
share of Special Voting Preferred Stock shall be transferable, and no such
share shall be transferred on the stock transfer books of the Corporation,
without the prior approval of the Corporation. 
A legend shall be placed on the face of each certificate representing
ownership of shares of Special Voting Preferred Stock referring to the
restriction on transfer set forth herein.

(b)           Notwithstanding
any terms or provisions to the contrary contained herein, the Special Voting
Preferred Stock shall constitute Capital Stock and shall be subject to the
provisions of Article VII of the Charter entitled “Restriction on Transfer and
Ownership Shares”.

6.             Reacquired
Shares.  Any shares of Special Voting
Preferred Stock redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in
any manner whatsoever shall cease to be outstanding and shall become authorized
but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to class or
series until such shares are once more classified and designated as part of a
particular class or series by action of the Board of Directors, and the former
holder or holders thereof shall have no further rights (hereunder or otherwise)
with respect to such shares.

7.             Liquidation, Dissolution or
Winding Up.  In the event of any
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation,
whether voluntary or involuntary, before any assets of the Corporation shall be
distributed, paid or set aside for the holders of any equity securities ranking
junior to the Special Voting Preferred Stock as to the distribution of assets
upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the 

 

3

 

Corporation
shall pay to the holders of shares of Special Voting Preferred Stock, out of
assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to it
stockholders, the sum of $10.00 per share for each share of Special Voting
Preferred Stock held by each such holder.  
After payment in full to the holders of the Special Voting Preferred
Stock of the above-described Ten Dollars ($10.00) per share liquidation amount,
the holders of the Special Voting Preferred Stock will have no right or claim
to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

If, upon any liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the assets of the Corporation, or
the proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of Special Voting
Preferred Stock and the holders of Common Stock shall be insufficient to pay in
full the above-described liquidation amount per share to the holders of the
Special Voting Preferred Stock and a like amount per share to the holders of
the Common Stock, then such assets, or the proceeds therefrom, shall be
distributed among the holders of the Special Voting Preferred Stock and the
Common Stock in equal amounts per share.

For the purposes of this
Section 7, (i) a consolidation or merger of the Corporation with one or more
entities, (ii) a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s
assets, or (iii) a statutory share exchange shall not be deemed to be a
liquidation, dissolution or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, of the
Corporation.

 

8.             Redemption.  Upon the occurrence of a Redemption Event,
then, concurrent with the Redemption Event, the outstanding shares of Special
Voting Preferred shall be redeemed by the Corporation out of assets legally
available therefore, at a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to $10.00
per share of Special Voting Preferred Stock. 
From and after the Redemption Date, the outstanding shares of Special
Voting Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed outstanding and all rights of
holders of such shares will terminate, except the rights to receive the cash
payable upon such redemption, without interest thereon, upon surrender and
endorsement of the certificates evidencing the shares of Special Voting
Preferred Stock, if so required).

9.             Rank.

(a)           The
Special Voting Preferred Stock will, with respect to rights upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, rank (a) senior to all equity
securities issued by the Corporation, the terms of which provide that such
equity securities rank junior to the Special Voting Preferred Stock with
respect to rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Corporation; (b) junior to all equity securities issued by the Corporation, the
terms of which provide that such equity securities rank senior to the Special
Voting Preferred Stock with respect to rights upon liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Corporation; and (c) on a parity with the Common Stock of the
Corporation and with all other equity securities issued by the Corporation,
other than those equity securities referred to in clauses (a) and (b) hereof;
provided, however, that after payment in full to the holders of the Special
Voting Preferred Stock of the Ten Dollars ($10.00) per share liquidation amount
described in Section 7 above, the holders of the Special Voting Preferred Stock
will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation,
and such remaining assets of the Corporation shall be distributed among the
holders of Common Stock and any other classes or series of stock ranking

a parity with or junior to the Special Voting Preferred Stock as to rights upon
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, according to their
respective rights and preferences and in each case according to their
respective number of shares, and the holders of the Special Voting Preferred
Stock shall not be entitled to share therein.

(b)           The
Special Voting Preferred Stock will, with respect to dividend rights, rank
junior to the Common Stock and to all other equity securities issued by the
Corporation.

(c)           The
term “equity securities” does not include convertible debt securities or other
debt securities of the Corporation which will rank senior to the Special Voting
Preferred Stock prior to conversion.

stated maturity and will not be subject to any sinking fund or mandatory
redemption, except as provided in Section 8 above.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

This letter
agreement (this “Agreement”) relates to the proposed initial public offering
(the “Offering”) by Newkirk Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”),
of its common stock, $.01 par value (the “Stock”).

 

In order to induce you and the other underwriters for
which you act as representatives (the “Underwriters”) to underwrite the
Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that, except as otherwise provided
herein without the prior written consent of Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. (“Bear
Stearns”), during the Lock-Up Period (as hereinafter defined), the undersigned
(a) will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, agree to offer or sell,
solicit offers to purchase, grant any call option or purchase any put option
with respect to, pledge, borrow or otherwise dispose of any Relevant Security
(as defined below), and (b) will not establish or increase any “put equivalent
position” or liquidate or decrease any “call equivalent position” with respect
to any Relevant Security (in each case within the meaning of Section 16 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder), or otherwise enter into any swap, derivative or other
transaction or arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any
economic consequence of ownership of a Relevant Security, whether or not such
transaction is to be settled by delivery of Relevant Securities, other securities,
cash or other consideration.

 

As used herein “Relevant Security” means the Stock,
any other equity security of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and any
security convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, any Stock or
other such equity security held by the undersigned immediately following the
Offering including, without limitation, units of limited partnership interest
in The Newkirk Master Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”).  As used herein, the term “Lock-Up Period”
means the period from the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the third anniversary
of the effective date of the Offering and (ii) the date of termination or
expiration of the Advisory Agreement among the Company, the Partnership and NKT
Advisors LLC.

 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing:

 

(i)            if (x) during the last 17 days of
the Lock-Up Period the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a
material event relating to the Company occurs; or (y) prior to the expiration
of the Lock-Up Period, the Company announces that it will release earnings
results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 90-day
period; the restrictions imposed in this Letter Agreement shall continue to
apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the issuance of
the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event;
provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply if the research published
or distributed on the Company is compliant with Rule 139 of the Securities Act
and the Company’s securities are actively traded as defined in Rule 101(c)(1)
of Regulation M of the Exchange Act;

 

(ii)           the undersigned shall be permitted to
pledge Relevant Securities in connection with a loan obtained by the undersigned
so long as the principal amount of such loan is no greater than 35% of the
value of all Relevant Securities held by the undersigned.  For purposes hereof, the value of the
Relevant Securities shall be calculated assuming the value of each Relevant Security
is the Offering price of the Stock, adjusted for stock splits; and

 

(iii)          the undersigned shall be permitted to
transfer or otherwise assign Relevant Securities to an affiliate of the
undersigned provided that such affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms of
this Agreement.

 

The undersigned hereby authorizes the Company during
the Lock-Up Period to cause any transfer agent for the Relevant Securities to
decline to transfer, and to note stop transfer restrictions on the stock
register and other records relating to, Relevant Securities for which the
undersigned is the record holder and, in the case of Relevant Securities for
which the undersigned is the beneficial but not the record holder, agrees
during the Lock-Up Period to cause the record holder to cause the relevant
transfer agent to decline to transfer, and to note stop transfer restrictions
on the stock register and other records relating to, such Relevant
Securities.  The undersigned hereby
further agrees that, without the prior written consent of Bear Stearns, during
the Lock-up Period the undersigned (x) will not file or participate in the
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of any registration
statement, or circulate or participate in the circulation of any preliminary or
final prospectus or other disclosure document with respect to any proposed
offering or sale of a Relevant Security and (y) will not exercise any rights
the undersigned may have to require registration with the Securities and
Exchange Commission of any proposed offering or sale of a Relevant Security;
provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may
commence the exercise of registration rights with respect to a Relevant
Security provided, however, that such exercise is not publicized, nor are any
documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect
thereto, prior to the expiration of the term hereof.

 

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that
the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and
that this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the
undersigned, enforceable in accordance with its terms.  Upon request, 

 

 

2

the undersigned will execute any additional documents necessary in
connection with enforcement hereof.  Any
obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors and assigns
of the undersigned from the date first above written.

 

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York. 
Delivery of a signed copy of this letter by facsimile transmission shall
be effective as delivery of the original hereof.
