SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED

 

AGREEMENT OF LIMITED
PARTNERSHIP

 

OF

 

GMH COMMUNITIES, LP

 

 

GMH COMMUNITIES, LP (the “Partnership”)
was formed as a limited partnership under the laws of the State of Delaware,
pursuant to a Certificate of Limited Partnership filed with the Secretary of
State of the State of Delaware on May 21, 2004. 
This Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership is
hereby entered into as of the 2nd day of November, 2004, by and among GMH
Communities GP Trust, a Delaware trust (the “General
Partner”), and the initial Limited Partners set forth on the signature
pages of this Agreement.

 

BACKGROUND

 

A.            The
Partnership was originally governed by that certain Agreement of Limited
Partnership, dated as of May 21, 2004, by and between GMH Communities GP, LLC
(“GMH GP”), a Delaware limited liability
company, as general partner, and Gary M. Holloway, a natural person, as limited
partner.  The Partnership was thereafter
reconstituted and governed by that certain Amended and Restated Limited
Partnership Agreement of GMH Communities, LP, dated as of July 20, 2004, by and
among GMH GP, as the Class A general partner, GMH LP LLC (“GMH LP”), a Delaware limited liability company, as the
Class A limited partner, Vornado Community GP LLC (“VNO GP”),
a Delaware limited liability company, as the Class B general partner, and Vornado
Community LP LLC (“VNO LP”), a
Delaware limited liability company, as the Class B limited partner (as
amended by that certain First Amendment to Amended and Restated Limited
Partnership Agreement, dated as of October 15, 2004, the “First
Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement”).

 

B.            Pursuant to the right granted to them in the
First Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement, GMH GP and GMH LP have on
this date redeemed the entire interest of VNO GP and VNO LP in the Partnership
in accordance with the First Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement and
caused VNO GP and VNO LP to assign all of their interests in the Partnership to
the Partnership in exchange for the redemption price set forth in the First
Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement (a portion of which will be retained
by the Partnership on account of the exercise of a warrant held by Affiliates
of VNO GP and VNO LP that was exercised simultaneously with the redemption).

 

C.            Immediately following such redemption, (i) GMH LP
assigned its interests in the Partnership to the Partnership in exchange for
the limited partnership interests to be issued pursuant to this Agreement,
whereupon GMH LP dissolved and distributed its right to receive such limited
partnership interests to its members, (ii) GMH GP caused the Partnership to
admit the General Partner as the new sole general partner of the Partnership
and then GMH GP withdrew as a partner from the Partnership, and (iii) the
General Partner caused certain formation

 

 

transactions to occur to again
reconstitute the Partnership, including without limitation closing on certain
contribution transactions with certain of the new Limited Partners and closing
on the exercise of the warrant described above.

 

D.            The
General Partner and the initial Limited Partners set forth on the signature
pages of this Agreement now desire to amend and restate the partnership
agreement of the Partnership.

ARTICLE IV

 

CAPITAL
CONTRIBUTIONS AND ACCOUNTS

 

4.01        Capital Contributions. 
The General Partner and the Limited Partners have made capital
contributions to the Partnership in exchange for the Partnership Interests as
set forth opposite their names on the books and records of the Partnership, as
may be amended from time to time.

 

4.02        Additional Capital Contributions and Issuances of Additional
Partnership Interests.  Except as provided in this Section 4.02 or in
Section 4.03, the Partners shall have no obligation to make any additional
Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership.  The General Partner and/or the Company may
contribute additional capital to the Partnership, from time to time, and
receive additional Partnership Interests in respect thereof, in the manner
contemplated in this Section 4.02.

 

(a)           Issuances of Additional Partnership
Interests.

 

(i)            General.  The General Partner is hereby
authorized to cause the Partnership to issue such additional Partnership
Interests in the form of Partnership Units for any Partnership purpose at any
time or from time to time to the Partners (including the General Partner and
the Company) or to other Persons for such consideration and on such terms and
conditions as shall be established by the General Partner in its sole and
absolute discretion, all without the approval of any Limited Partners.  Any additional Partnership Interests issued
thereby may be issued in one or more classes, or one or more series of any of
such classes, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating,
optional or other special rights, powers and duties, including rights, powers
and duties senior to the Limited Partnership Interests, all of which as shall
be determined by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion and
without the approval of any Limited Partner, subject to Delaware law, including,
without limitation, (i) the allocations of items of Partnership income, gain,
loss, deduction and credit to each such class or series of Partnership
Interests; (ii) the right of each such class or series of Partnership Interests
to share in Partnership distributions; and (iii) the rights of each such class
or series of Partnership Interests upon dissolution and liquidation of the
Partnership; provided, however, that no additional Partnership
Interests shall be issued to the General Partner or the Company unless:

 

(1)           (A) the additional Partnership Interests are
issued in connection with an issuance of REIT Shares of or other interests in
the Company, which shares or interests shall have designations, preferences

 

12

 

and other rights, all such that the economic interests are
substantially similar to the designations, preferences and other rights of the
additional Partnership Interests issued to the General Partner and/or the
Company by the Partnership in accordance with this Section 4.02 and (B) the
General Partner and/or the Company shall make a Capital Contribution to the
Partnership in an amount equal to the cash consideration received by the
Company from the issuance of such shares of beneficial interest of or other
interests in the Company;

 

(2)           the additional Partnership Interests are
issued in exchange for property owned by the Company or the General Partner, as
the case may be, with a fair market value, as determined by the General
Partner, in good faith, equal to the value of the Partnership Interests; or

 

(3)           the additional Partnership Interests are
issued to all Partners in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.

 

Without limiting the foregoing, the General Partner is expressly authorized
to cause the Partnership to issue Partnership Units for less than fair market
value, so long as the General Partner concludes in good faith that such
issuance is in the best interests of the Company, the General Partner and the
Partnership.

 

(ii)           Upon Issuance of Additional Securities.  The
Company shall not issue any additional REIT Shares (other than REIT Shares
issued in connection with a redemption pursuant to Section 8.04 hereof) or
rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities containing
the right to subscribe for or purchase REIT Shares (collectively, “Additional Securities”) other than to all
holders of REIT Shares, unless (A) the General Partner shall cause the
Partnership to issue to the Company Partnership Interests or rights, options,
warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities of the Partnership having
designations, preferences and other rights, all such that the economic
interests are substantially similar to those of the Additional Securities, and
(B) the Company contributes the proceeds from the issuance of such Additional
Securities and from any exercise of rights contained in such Additional
Securities to the Partnership.  Without
limiting the foregoing, the Company is expressly authorized to issue Additional
Securities for less than fair market value, and, upon such issuance, the
General Partner is expressly authorized to cause the Partnership to issue to
the Company corresponding Partnership Interests, so long as (x) the General
Partner concludes in good faith that such issuance is in the best interests of
the Company, the General Partner and the Partnership and (y) the Company
contributes all proceeds from such issuance to the Partnership, including
without limitation, the issuance of REIT Shares and corresponding Partnership
Units pursuant to a share purchase plan providing for purchases of REIT Shares
at a discount from fair market value or employee stock options that have an
exercise price that is less than the fair market value of the REIT Shares,
either at the time of issuance or at the time of

 

13

 

exercise.  For example, in the
event the Company issues REIT Shares for a cash purchase price and contributes
all of the proceeds of such issuance to the Partnership as required hereunder,
the General Partner shall be issued a number of additional Partnership Units
equal to the product of (A) the number of such REIT Shares issued by the
Company, the proceeds of which were so contributed, multiplied by (B) a fraction,
the numerator of which is 100%, and the denominator of which is the Conversion
Factor in effect on the date of such contribution.

 

(b)           Certain
Contributions of Proceeds of Issuance of REIT Shares.  In connection with any and all issuances of
REIT Shares, the Company shall make Capital Contributions to the Partnership of
the proceeds therefrom, provided  that if the proceeds actually
received and contributed by the Company are less than the gross proceeds of
such issuance as a result of any underwriter’s discount or other expenses paid
or incurred in connection with such issuance, then the Company shall make a
Capital Contribution of such net proceeds to the Partnership but solely for the
purpose of determining its Percentage Interest, the Company shall be deemed to
receive additional Partnership Units with a value equal to the aggregate amount
of the gross proceeds of such issuance pursuant to Section 4.02(a) hereof.  Upon any such Capital Contribution by the
Company, the Company’s Capital Account shall be increased by the actual amount
of its Capital Contribution pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof.

 

(c)           Company
Repurchase of Capital Stock. 
If the Company shall repurchase shares of any class of the Company’s
capital stock, the purchase price thereof and all costs incurred in connection
with such repurchase shall be reimbursed to the Company by the Partnership
pursuant to Section 6.10 hereof and the General Partner shall cause the
Partnership to repurchase a number of Partnership Interests of the appropriate class
held by the Company equal to the quotient of the number of such shares of the
Company’s capital stock divided by the Conversion Factor in accordance with the
provisions set forth in Section 6.10.

 

4.03        Additional Funding.  If the General Partner determines that it is
in the best interest of the Partnership to provide for additional Partnership
funds (“Additional Funds”) for any
Partnership purpose, the General Partner may (i) cause the Partnership to
obtain such funds from outside borrowings, or (ii) elect to have the Company,
the General Partner or any of its Affiliates provide such Additional Funds to
the Partnership through loans or otherwise.

 

4.04        Capital Accounts.  A separate capital account (a “Capital Account”) shall be established and
maintained for each Partner in accordance with Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv).  If (i) a new or
existing Partner acquires an additional Partnership Interest in exchange for
more than a de  minimis Capital Contribution, (ii) the
Partnership distributes to a Partner more than a de  minimis
amount of Partnership property as consideration for a Partnership Interest,
(iii) the Partnership grants more than a de  minimis Partnership
Interest as consideration for the provision of services to or for the benefit
of the Partnership by a Partner acting in a partner capacity or by a new
Partner acting in a partner capacity or in anticipation of being a Partner, or
(iv) the Partnership is liquidated within the meaning of Regulation Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), the General Partner may revalue the property of the
Partnership to its fair market

 

14

 

value (as determined by the
General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, and taking into account
Section 7701(g) of the Code) in accordance with Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f).  When the
Partnership’s property is revalued by the General Partner, the Capital Accounts
of the Partners shall be adjusted in accordance with Regulations Sections
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) and (g), which generally require such Capital Accounts to
be adjusted to reflect the manner in which the unrealized gain or loss inherent
in such property (that has not been reflected in the Capital Accounts
previously) would be allocated among the Partners pursuant to Section 5.01 if
there were a taxable disposition of such property for its fair market value (as
determined by the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, and
taking into account Section 7701(g) of the Code) on the date of the revaluation.
 Notwithstanding any provision contained
herein to the contrary, no Partner shall be required to restore any negative
balance in its Capital Account.  As of
the date hereof, the Capital Account balances of the Partners are set forth on
Schedule A.

 

4.05        Percentage Interests.  If the number of outstanding Partnership
Units increases or decreases during a taxable year, each Partner’s Percentage
Interest shall be adjusted by the General Partner effective as of the effective
date of each such increase or decrease to a percentage equal to the number of
Partnership Units held by such Partner divided by the aggregate number of
Partnership Units outstanding after giving effect to such increase or
decrease.  If the Partners’ Percentage
Interests are adjusted pursuant to this Section 4.05, the Profits and Losses
for the taxable year in which the adjustment occurs shall be allocated between
the portion of the year ending on the day when the Partnership’s property is
revalued by the General Partner and the portion of the year beginning on the
following day either (i) as if the taxable year had ended on the date of the
adjustment or (ii) based on the number of days in each portion.  The General Partner, in its sole and absolute
discretion, shall determine which method shall be used to allocate Profits and
Losses for the taxable year in which the adjustment occurs.  The allocation of Profits and Losses for the
earlier part of the year shall be based on the Percentage Interests before adjustment,
and the allocation of Profits and Losses for the later part shall be based on
the adjusted Percentage Interests.  The
General Partner shall amend Schedule A accordingly.

 

4.06        No Interest on Contributions. 
No Partner shall be entitled to interest on its Capital Contribution.

 

4.07        Return of Capital Contributions. 
No Partner shall be entitled to withdraw any part of its Capital
Contribution or its Capital Account or to receive any distribution from the
Partnership, except as specifically provided in this Agreement.  Except as otherwise provided herein, there
shall be no obligation to return to any Partner or withdrawn Partner any part
of such Partner’s Capital Contribution for so long as the Partnership continues
in existence.

 

4.08        No Third Party Beneficiary.  No
creditor or other third party having dealings with the Partnership shall have
the right to enforce the right or obligation of any Partner to make Capital
Contributions or loans or to pursue any other right or remedy hereunder or at
law or in equity, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of this
Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of, and may be enforced solely by,
the parties hereto and their respective successors

 

15

 

and assigns.  None of the rights or obligations of the
Partners herein set forth to make Capital Contributions or loans to the
Partnership shall be deemed an asset of the Partnership for any purpose by any
creditor or other third party, nor may such rights or obligations be sold,
transferred or assigned by the Partnership or pledged or encumbered by the
Partnership to secure any debt or other obligation of the Partnership or of any
of the Partners.  In addition, it is the
intent of the parties hereto that no distribution to any Limited Partner shall
be deemed a return of money or other property in violation of the Act.  However, if any court of competent
jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any
Limited Partner is obligated to return such money or property, such obligation
shall be the obligation of such Limited Partner and not of the General
Partner.  Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, a deficit Capital Account of a Partner shall not be deemed to
be a liability of such Partner nor an asset or property of the Partnership.

 

ARTICLE V

 

PROFITS AND
LOSSES; DISTRIBUTIONS

 

5.01        Allocation
of Profit and Loss.

 

(a)           Profit.  Profit of the Partnership for each fiscal
year of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with
their respective Percentage Interests.

 

(b)           Loss.  Loss of the Partnership for each fiscal year
of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Partners in accordance with their
respective Percentage Interests.

 

(c)           Minimum
Gain Chargeback.  Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary, and except as otherwise provided in any Contribution
Agreement, (i) any expense of the Partnership that is a “nonrecourse deduction”
within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(1) shall be allocated in
accordance with the Partners’ respective Percentage Interests, (ii) any expense
of the Partnership that is a “partner nonrecourse deduction” within the meaning
of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(2) shall be allocated to the Partner that
bears the “economic risk of loss” of such deduction in accordance with
Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1), (iii) if there is a net decrease in
Partnership Minimum Gain within the meaning of Regulations Section
1.704-2(f)(1) for any Partnership taxable year, then, subject to the exceptions
set forth in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(2),(3), (4) and (5), items of gain
and income shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with Regulations
Section 1.704-2(f) and the ordering rules contained in Regulations Section
1.704-2(j), and (iv) if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Debt
Minimum Gain within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) for any
Partnership taxable year, then, subject to the exceptions set forth in
Regulations Section 1.704(2)(g), items of gain and income shall be allocated
among the Partners in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and the
ordering rules contained in Regulations Section 1.704-2(j). A Partner’s
“interest in partnership profits” for purposes of determining its share of the
nonrecourse liabilities of the Partnership within the meaning of Regulations
Section 1.752-3(a)(3) shall be (x) to the extent of the gain that would be
allocated to the Partner under Section 704(c) upon a sale of the property of
the Partnership, the amount of such gain, and (y) to the extent that the

 

16

 

nonrecourse liabilities exceed
the amount allocated under clause (x), each Partner’s Percentage Interest.

 

(d)           Qualified
Income Offset.  If a Partner
receives in any taxable year an adjustment, allocation or distribution
described in subparagraphs (4), (5) or (6) of Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) that causes or increases a deficit balance in such
Partner’s Capital Account that exceeds the sum of such Partner’s shares of
Partnership Minimum Gain and Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, as
determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g) and 1.704-2(i),
such Partner shall be allocated specially for such taxable year (and, if
necessary, later taxable years) items of income and gain in an amount and
manner sufficient to eliminate such deficit Capital Account balance as quickly
as possible as provided in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).

 

(e)           Capital
Account Deficits.  Loss shall not be
allocated to a Limited Partner to the extent that such allocation would cause a
deficit in such Partner’s Capital Account (after reduction to reflect the items
described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6)) to
exceed the sum of such Partner’s shares of Partnership Minimum Gain and Partner
Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain.  Any Loss
in excess of that limitation shall be allocated to the General Partner.  After the occurrence of an allocation of Loss
to the General Partner in accordance with this Section 5.01(e), to the extent
permitted by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b), Profit shall first be allocated to
the General Partner in an amount necessary to offset the Loss previously
allocated to the General Partner under this Section 5.01(e).

 

(f)            Allocations
Between Transferor and Transferee.  If a Partner transfers any part or all of its
Partnership Interest, the distributive shares of the various items of Profit
and Loss allocable among the Partners during such fiscal year of the
Partnership shall be allocated between the transferor and the transferee
Partner either (i) as if the Partnership’s fiscal year had ended on the
date of the transfer, or (ii) based on the number of days of such fiscal
year that each was a Partner without regard to the results of Partnership
activities in the respective portions of such fiscal year in which the
transferor and the transferee were Partners. 
The General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall
determine which method shall be used to allocate the distributive shares of the
various items of Profit and Loss between the transferor and the transferee
Partner.

 

(g)           Definition
of Profit and Loss.  “Profit” and “Loss” and any items of income, gain, expense or loss referred
to in this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with federal income tax
accounting principles, as modified by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv),
except that Profit and Loss shall not include items of income, gain and expense
that are specially allocated pursuant to Sections 5.01(c), 5.01(d) or 5.01(e).
All allocations of income, Profit, gain, Loss and expense (and all items
contained therein) for federal income tax purposes shall be identical to all
allocations of such items set forth in this Section 5.01, except as otherwise
required by Section 704(c) of the Code and Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4).
Unless otherwise agreed with a contributing Limited Partner, the Partnership
shall use the traditional method for allocating items of income, gain and
expense as required by Section 704(c) of the Code with respect to the
properties acquired by the Partnership on or before the date hereof and,

 

17

 

with respect to other properties
subsequently acquired by the Partnership, the General Partner shall have the
authority to elect the method to be used by the Partnership for allocating
items of income, gain and expense as required by Section 704(c) of the Code
with respect to such properties, and such election shall be binding on all
Partners.

 

5.02        Distribution
of Cash.

 

(a)           Subject to Section 5.02(c)
hereof and except with respect to distributions in connection with a
liquidation of the Partnership pursuant to Section 5.06(a), the Partnership
shall distribute cash at such times and in such amounts as are determined by
the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, to the Partners who
are Partners on the Partnership Record Date with respect to such quarter (or
other distribution period) in accordance with their respective Percentage
Interests on the Partnership Record Date.

 

(b)           If a new or existing Partner
acquires an additional Partnership Interest in exchange for a Capital
Contribution on any date other than a Partnership Record Date, the cash
distribution attributable to such additional Partnership Interest relating to
the Partnership Record Date next following the issuance of such additional
Partnership Interest shall be reduced in the proportion to (i) the number of
days that such additional Partnership Interest is held by such Partner bears to
(ii) the number of days between such Partnership Record Date and the
immediately preceding Partnership Record Date.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the General Partner is authorized to take any
action that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to cause the
Partnership to comply with any withholding requirements established under the
Code or any other federal, state or local law including, without limitation,
pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445 and 1446 of the Code.  To the extent that the Partnership is
required to withhold and pay over to any taxing authority any amount resulting
from the allocation or distribution of income to a Partner or assignee
(including by reason of Section 1446 of the Code), either (i) if the actual
amount to be distributed to the Partner (the “Distributable
Amount”) equals or exceeds the amount required to be withheld by the
Partnership (the “Withheld Amount”),
the entire Distributable Amount shall be treated as a distribution of cash to
such Partner, or (ii) if the Distributable Amount is less than the Withheld
Amount, the excess of the Withheld Amount over the Distributable Amount shall
be treated as a loan (a “Partnership Loan”)
from the Partnership to the Partner on the day the Partnership pays over such
amount to a taxing authority.  A
Partnership Loan shall be repaid upon the demand of the Partnership or, in the
alternative, through withholding by the Partnership with respect to subsequent
distributions to the applicable Partner or assignee.  In the event that a Limited Partner (a “Defaulting Limited Partner”) fails to pay
any amount owed to the Partnership with respect to the Partnership Loan within
15 days after demand for payment thereof is made by the Partnership on the
Limited Partner, the General Partner or Company, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may elect to make the payment to the Partnership on behalf of such
Defaulting Limited Partner.  In such
event, on the date of payment, the General Partner or Company, as the case may
be, shall be deemed to have extended a loan (a “Withholding Tax Loan”) to the Defaulting Limited Partner in
the amount of the payment made by the General Partner or Company and shall
succeed to all rights and remedies of the

 

18

 

Partnership against the
Defaulting Limited Partner as to that amount. 
Without limitation, the General Partner or Company shall have the right
to receive any distributions that otherwise would be made by the Partnership to
the Defaulting Limited Partner until such time as the Withholding Tax Loan has
been paid in full, and any such distributions so received by the General
Partner or Company shall be treated as having been received by the Defaulting
Limited Partner and immediately paid to the General Partner or Company.

 

Any amounts treated as a Partnership Loan or a
Withholding Tax Loan pursuant to this Section 5.02(c) shall bear interest at
the lesser of (i) the base rate on corporate loans at large United States money
center commercial banks, as published from time to time in The Wall Street
Journal, or (ii) the maximum lawful rate of interest on such obligation,
such interest to accrue from the date the Partnership, the General Partner or
Company, as applicable, is deemed to extend the loan until such loan is repaid
in full.

 

(d)           In no event may a Partner
receive a distribution of cash with respect to a Partnership Unit if such
Partner is entitled to receive a cash dividend as the holder of record of a
REIT Share for which all or part of such Partnership Unit has been or will be
redeemed if the effect of the distribution with respect to the Partnership Unit
would be to result in receipt by the Partner (in its capacity as a shareholder
of the Company as well as in its capacity as a Partner) of a larger
distribution than the Partner would have received if it had only been a Partner
in the Partnership for the entire period to which the distribution relates.

 

5.03        REIT Distribution Requirements. 
The General Partner shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the
Partnership to distribute amounts sufficient to enable the Company to pay
shareholder dividends that will allow the Company to (i) meet its distribution
requirement for qualification as a REIT as set forth in Section 857 of the Code
and (ii) avoid any federal income or excise tax liability imposed by the Code,
other than to the extent the Company elects to retain and pay income tax on its
net capital gain.

 

5.04        No Right to Distributions in Kind. 
No Partner shall be entitled to demand property other than cash in
connection with any distributions by the Partnership.

 

5.05        Limitations on Return of Capital Contributions. 
Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Article V, no Partner
shall have the right to receive, and the General Partner shall not have the
right to make, a distribution that includes a return of all or part of a
Partner’s Capital Contributions, unless after giving effect to the return of a
Capital Contribution, the sum of all Partnership liabilities, other than the
liabilities to a Partner for the return of his Capital Contribution, does not
exceed the fair market value of the Partnership’s assets.

 

5.06        Distributions
Upon Liquidation.

 

(a)           Upon liquidation of the
Partnership, after payment of, or adequate provision for, debts and obligations
of the Partnership, including any Partner loans, any remaining assets of the
Partnership shall be distributed to all Partners with positive Capital Accounts
in accordance with their respective positive Capital Account balances.

 

19

 

(b)           Immediately prior to making a
liquidating distribution, if the Company has made a Capital Contribution to the
Partnership for which the Company was deemed to receive under Section 4.20(b)
additional Partnership Units for purposes of determining its Percentage
Interest, the Company shall be allocated Profit or items of gross income or
gain so that the ratio of its Capital Account to the Capital Accounts of all
other Partners is proportionate to its deemed Percentage Interest.

 

(c)           Any distributions pursuant to
this Section 5.06 shall be made by the end of the Partnership’s taxable year in
which the liquidation occurs (or, if later, within 90 days after the date of
the liquidation).  To the extent deemed
advisable by the General Partner, appropriate arrangements (including the use
of a liquidating trust) may be made to assure that adequate funds are available
to pay any contingent debts or obligations.

 

5.07        Target Final Balance.  The allocation provisions of this Agreement
are intended to produce final Capital Account balances that are at levels (“Target Final Balances”) that permit
liquidating distributions that are made in accordance with such final Capital
Account balances to be equal to the distributions that would occur under
Section 5.02 hereof if such liquidating proceeds were distributed pursuant to
Section 5.02.  To the extent that the
allocation provisions of this Agreement would not produce the Target Final
Balances, the Partners agree to take such actions as are necessary to amend
such allocation provisions to produce such Target Final Balances.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the General
Partner is expressly authorized and directed to make such allocations of gain,
loss and deduction (including items of gross income, gain, loss and deduction)
in the year of liquidation of the Company so as to cause the Capital Accounts
of the Partners that determine the amounts that are distributed to the Partners
under Section 5.02 to be equal to the Target Final Balances.

OBLIGATIONS AND

POWERS OF THE GENERAL PARTNER

terms as the General Partner may determine;

 

(ix)           to prosecute, defend, arbitrate or compromise

or prudent to ensure that the Partnership will not be classified as a “publicly
traded partnership” for purposes of Section 7704 of the Code; and

 

(xxii)        to take such other action, execute,
acknowledge, swear to or deliver such other documents and instruments, and
perform any and all other acts that the General Partner deems necessary or
appropriate for the formation, continuation and conduct of the business and
affairs of the Partnership (including, without limitation, all actions
consistent with allowing the Company at all times to qualify as a REIT, unless
the Company voluntarily terminates its REIT status, and all actions consistent
with avoiding entity level tax on the Company for so long as it elects to
qualify as a REIT) and to possess and enjoy all of the rights and powers of a
general partner as provided by the Act.

 

(b)           Except as otherwise provided
herein, to the extent the duties of the General Partner require expenditures of
funds to be paid to third parties, the General Partner shall not have any
obligations hereunder except to the extent that Partnership funds are
reasonably available to it for the performance of such duties, and nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to authorize or require the General Partner,
in its capacity as such, to expend its individual funds for payment to third
parties or to undertake any individual liability or obligation on behalf of the
Partnership.

 

6.02        Delegation of Authority. 
The General Partner may delegate any or all of its powers, rights and
obligations hereunder, and may appoint, employ, contract or otherwise deal with
any Person for the transaction of the business of the Partnership, which Person
may, under supervision of the General Partner, perform any acts or services for
the Partnership as the General Partner may approve.

 

6.03        Indemnification
and Exculpation of Indemnitees.

 

(a)           The Partnership shall indemnify
an Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including reasonable legal fees and
expenses), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts arising from any
and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, that relate to the operations of the
Partnership as set forth in this Agreement in which any Indemnitee may be involved,
or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, unless it is
established that:  (i) the act or
omission of the Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to the
proceeding and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active
and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) the Indemnitee actually received an improper
personal benefit in money, property or services; or (iii) in the case of any
criminal proceeding, the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that the
act or omission was unlawful.  The
termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create
a presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard of
conduct set forth in this Section 6.03(a). 
The termination of any proceeding by conviction or upon a plea of nolo
contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of an order of probation prior to
judgment, creates a rebuttable presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a
manner contrary to that

 

23

 

specified in this Section
6.03(a).  Any indemnification pursuant to
this Section 6.03 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership.

 

(b)           The Partnership shall reimburse
an Indemnitee for reasonable expenses incurred by an Indemnitee who is a party
to a proceeding in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding upon
receipt by the Partnership of (i) a written affirmation by the Indemnitee of
the Indemnitee’s good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for
indemnification by the Partnership as authorized in this Section 6.03 has been
met, and (ii) a written undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay
the amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct
has not been met.

 

(c)           The indemnification provided by
this Section 6.03 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an
Indemnitee or any other Person may be entitled under any agreement, pursuant to
any vote of the Partners, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall continue
as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity.

 

(d)           The Partnership may purchase and
maintain insurance, on behalf of the Indemnitees and such other Persons as the
General Partner shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted
against or expenses that may be incurred by such Person in connection with the
Partnership’s activities, regardless of whether the Partnership would have the
power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of
this Agreement.

 

(e)           For purposes of this Section
6.03, the Partnership shall be deemed to have requested an Indemnitee to serve
as fiduciary of an employee benefit plan whenever the performance by it of its
duties to the Partnership also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves
services by, it to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan;
excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan
pursuant to applicable law shall constitute fines within the meaning of this
Section 6.03; and actions taken or omitted by the Indemnitee with respect to an
employee benefit plan in the performance of its duties for a purpose reasonably
believed by it to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of
the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose that is not opposed to the best
interests of the Partnership.

 

(f)            In no
event may an Indemnitee subject the Limited Partners to personal liability by
reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement.

 

(g)           An Indemnitee shall not be
denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 6.03 because the
Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the
indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms
of this Agreement.

 

(h)           The provisions of this Section
6.03 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns
and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit
of any other Persons.

 

(i)            Any
amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 6.03 or any provision hereof
shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the indemnification
of

 

24

 

an Indemnitee by the Partnership
under this Section 6.03 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment,
modification or repeal with respect to matters occurring, in whole or in part,
prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when claims
relating to such matters may arise or be asserted.

 

6.04        Liability
of the General Partner.

 

(a)           Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth in this Agreement, the General Partner shall not be liable
for monetary damages to the Partnership or any Partners for losses sustained or
liabilities incurred as a result of errors in judgment or of any act or
omission if the General Partner acted in good faith.  The General Partner shall not be in breach of
any duty that the General Partner may owe to the Limited Partners or the
Partnership or any other Persons under this Agreement or of any duty stated or
implied by law or equity provided the General Partner, acting in good faith,
abides by the terms of this Agreement.

 

(b)           The Limited Partners expressly
acknowledge that the General Partner is acting on behalf of the Partnership and
the General Partner’s securityholders (including the Company’s shareholders)
collectively, that the General Partner is under no obligation to consider the
separate interests of the Limited Partners (including, without limitation, the
tax consequences to Limited Partners or the tax consequences of some, but not
all, of the Limited Partners) in deciding whether to cause the Partnership to
take (or decline to take) any actions. 
In the event of a conflict between the interests of the securityholders
of the General Partner (including the Company’s shareholders) on one hand and
the Limited Partners on the other, the General Partner shall endeavor in good
faith to resolve the conflict in a manner not adverse to either the
securityholders of the General Partner (including the Company’s shareholders)
or the Limited Partners; provided, however, that for so long as
the General Partner and Company own a majority of the Partnership Units, any
such conflict that the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion,
determines cannot be resolved in a manner not adverse to either the
securityholders of the General Partner (including the Company’s shareholders)
or the Limited Partners shall be resolved in favor of the securityholders of
the General Partner (including the Company’s shareholders).  The General Partner shall not be liable for
monetary damages for losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not
derived by Limited Partners in connection with such decisions, provided
that the General Partner has acted in good faith.

 

(c)           Subject to its obligations and
duties as General Partner set forth in Section 6.01 hereof, the General Partner
may exercise any of the powers granted to it under this Agreement and perform
any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through
its agents.  The General Partner shall
not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such
agent appointed by it in good faith.

 

(d)           Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement or the Act, any action of the General Partner on
behalf of the Partnership or any decision of the General Partner to refrain
from acting on behalf of the Partnership, undertaken in the good faith belief
that such action or omission is necessary or advisable in order (i) to protect
the ability of the Company to continue to qualify as a REIT or (ii) to prevent
the Company from incurring any taxes under

 

25

 

Section 857, Section 4981, or
any other provision of the Code, is expressly authorized under this Agreement
and is deemed approved by all of the Limited Partners.

 

(e)           Any amendment, modification or
repeal of this Section 6.04 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only
and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the General Partner’s
liability to the Partnership and the Limited Partners under this Section 6.04
as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with
respect to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment,
modification or repeal, regardless of when claims relating to such matters may
arise or be asserted.

 

6.05        Partnership
Obligations.

 

(a)           Except as provided in this
Section 6.05 and elsewhere in this Agreement (including the provisions of
Articles V and VI regarding distributions, payments and allocations to which it
may be entitled), the General Partner shall not be compensated for its services
as general partner of the Partnership.

 

(b)           All Administrative Expenses
shall be obligations of the Partnership, and the General Partner shall be
entitled to reimbursement by the Partnership for any expenditure (including
Administrative Expenses) incurred by it on behalf of the Partnership that shall
be made other than out of the funds of the Partnership.  In the event that any such reimbursement made
by the General Partner is treated as gross income of the General Partner for
purposes of Section 856 of the Code, the Partnership shall treat such
reimbursement as a guaranteed payment to the General Partner within the meaning
of Section 707(c) of the Code.

 

6.06        Outside Activities.  Subject to Section 6.08 hereof, the
Declaration of Trust and any agreements entered into by the General Partner or
its Affiliates with the Partnership or a Subsidiary, any officer, director,
employee, agent, trustee, Affiliate, shareholder or holder of beneficial
interest of the General Partner and the General Partner shall be entitled to
and may have business interests and engage in business activities in addition
to those relating to the Partnership, including business interests and
activities substantially similar or identical to those of the Partnership.  Neither the Partnership nor any of the
Limited Partners shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement in any such
business ventures, interest or activities. 
None of the Limited Partners nor any other Person shall have any rights
by virtue of this Agreement or the partnership relationship established hereby
in any such business ventures, interests or activities, and the General Partner
shall have no obligation pursuant to this Agreement to offer any interest in
any such business ventures, interests and activities to the Partnership or any
Limited Partner, even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented
to the Partnership or any Limited Partner, could be taken by such Person.

 

6.07        Employment
or Retention of Affiliates.

 

(a)           Any Affiliate of the General
Partner or the Company may be employed or retained by the Partnership and may
otherwise deal with the Partnership (whether as a buyer, lessor, lessee,
manager, furnisher of goods or services, broker, agent, lender or otherwise)
and

 

26

 

may receive from the Partnership
any compensation, price or other payment therefor that the General Partner
determines to be fair and reasonable.

 

(b)           The Partnership may lend or
contribute to its Subsidiaries or other Persons in which it has an equity investment,
and such Persons may borrow funds from the Partnership, on terms and conditions
established in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner.  The foregoing authority shall not create any
right or benefit in favor of any Subsidiary or any other Person.

 

(c)           The Partnership may transfer
assets to joint ventures, other partnerships, corporations or other business
entities in which it is or thereby becomes a participant upon such terms and
subject to such conditions as the General Partner deems are consistent with
this Agreement and applicable law.

 

6.08        General Partner Activities. 
The General Partner agrees that all business activities of the Company
and the General Partner, including activities pertaining to the acquisition,
development or ownership of real property, shall be conducted through the
Partnership or one or more Subsidiary Partnerships; provided, however,
that the General Partner may make a direct acquisition, if and only if, such
acquisition is made in connection with the issuance of Additional Securities,
and such direct acquisition and issuance have been approved and determined to
be in the best interests of the Company, the General Partner and the
Partnership by a majority of the Independent Trustees.

 

6.09        Title to Partnership Assets. 
Title to Partnership assets, whether real, personal or mixed and whether
tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Partnership as an
entity, and no Partner, individually or collectively, shall have any ownership
interest in such Partnership assets or any portion thereof.  Title to any or all of the Partnership assets
may be held in the name of the Partnership, the General Partner or one or more
nominees, as the General Partner may determine, including Affiliates of the
General Partner.  The General Partner
hereby declares and warrants that any Partnership assets for which legal title
is held in the name of the General Partner or any nominee or Affiliate of the
General Partner shall be held by the General Partner for the use and benefit of
the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided,
however, that the General Partner shall use its best efforts to cause
beneficial and record title to such assets to be vested in the Partnership as
soon as reasonably practicable.  All
Partnership assets shall be recorded as the property of the Partnership in its
books and records, irrespective of the name in which legal title to such
Partnership assets is held.

 

6.10        Redemption of General Partner Partnership Units. 
In the event the Company redeems any REIT Shares, then the General
Partner shall cause the Partnership to purchase from the Company a number of
Partnership Units as determined based on the application of the Conversion
Factor on the same terms that the Company redeemed such REIT Shares.  Moreover, if the Company makes a cash tender
offer or other offer to acquire REIT Shares, then the General Partner shall
cause the Partnership to make a corresponding offer to the Company to acquire
an equal number of Partnership Units held by the Company.  In the event any REIT Shares are redeemed by
the Company pursuant to such offer, the Partnership shall redeem an equivalent

 

27

 

number of the Company’s
Partnership Units for an equivalent purchase price based on the application of
the Conversion Factor.

 

6.11        REIT Protective Covenants. 
From and after November 15, 2004 and except with respect to Section
6.11(d), until the date on which (A) the Holder (as defined in the Warrant) has
no direct or indirect interest in the Partnership (other than by or through a
taxable REIT subsidiary), (B) the Holder owns no warrant or other right to
acquire any interest in the Partnership and (C) the Holder’s aggregate
ownership of interests in the Partnership and the Company represents less than
5% of the value of the Partnership (in all such cases, taking into account any
options or other rights to acquire such interests) (the “Partnership Restricted Period”), the
General Partner shall operate and manage the Partnership in compliance with all
requirements of Part II of Subchapter M of Chapter 1 of Subtitle A of the Code
(or any successor or similar provisions thereto) such that, if at any time
after November 15, 2004, the Partnership were treated as a corporation for
federal income tax purposes and were to elect REIT status under Section 856(c)
of the Code, the Partnership would qualify as a REIT within the meaning of
Section 856 of the Code (determined by (i) assuming that the first taxable year
of the Partnership and its subsidiaries commences on November 15, 2004 and that
their final taxable year ends on the date of the expiration of the Partnership
Restricted Period (unless actions taken by the Partnership prior to such date
would, without regard to actions taken following such date, have prevented the
Partnership from qualifying as a REIT for the taxable year which includes such
date (but assuming that such taxable year begins no earlier than November 15,
2004)), (ii) treating each entity that is treated as a corporation for federal
income tax purposes in which the Partnership has a direct or indirect interest
as having made a joint TRS election under Section 856(l) of the Code with
respect to the Partnership to the extent necessary to avoid a REIT
qualification issue, so long as the provisions of clause (e) have been complied
with and (iii) assuming that the Partnership satisfies the requirements of
Section 856(a)(5) and Section 856(a)(6) of the Code. From and after the IPO
Date (as defined in the Warrant issued by the Company and the Partnership to
Vornado Realty L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, dated as of July 27, 2004,
as amended (the “Warrant”)) and
until the date on which (A) the Holder has no direct or indirect interest in
the Partnership (other than by or through a taxable REIT subsidiary), (B) the
Holder owns no warrant or other right to acquire any interest in the
Partnership and (C) the Holder’s aggregate ownership of interests in the
Partnership and the Company represents less than 5% by value of the value of
the Partnership (in all such cases, taking into account any options or other
rights to acquire such interests) (the “Company
Restricted Period”), the Company shall be operated and managed in
compliance with all requirements of Part II of Subchapter M of Chapter 1 of
Subtitle A of the Code (or any successor or similar provisions thereto) such
that the Company will qualify as a REIT within the meaning of Section 856 of
the Code; except as may result from any actions taken following the Partnership
Restricted Period. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing two
sentences, each of the Company and the Partnership and the General Partner
agrees, for the benefit of the Holder, that during the Partnership Restricted
Period (in the case of the Partnership and the General Partner) and during the
Company Restricted Period (in the case of the Company), neither the Company,
the Partnership nor General Partner shall act, directly or indirectly, in any
manner that would result in violation of any of clauses (a) through (h) below
without the prior written consent of the Holder. Except as specifically
provided otherwise in clause (b), for

 

28

 

purposes of clauses (a) through
(h) below, references to the Partnership shall include any corporation,
partnership, limited liability company or other entity in which the Partnership
has a direct or indirect interest.

 

Except as may be otherwise agreed to in writing by the
Tax Director of Vornado (as defined in the Warrant):

 

(a)           Neither the Company nor the
Partnership shall own, directly or indirectly, any securities (including,
without limitation, stock, partnership or membership interests or indebtedness
of a corporation, partnership or limited liability company) other than Excluded
Securities (as defined below). “Excluded
Securities” shall mean (i) (A) an equity interest in a partnership
or limited liability company that is treated as a partnership or disregarded
entity for federal income tax purposes (other than an interest in a partnership
or limited liability company listed on such schedules as may be provided by the
Holder to the Company or the Partnership from time to time by written notice (provided,
however, that it shall not be a violation of this clause (a) where the
Company or the Partnership owns, directly or indirectly, an interest in a
partnership or limited liability company listed on such schedules where such
interest was owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company or the Partnership
(as the case may be) prior to the time at which the Company or the Partnership
(as the case may be) received written notice adding such entity to such
schedules, so long as the Company or the Partnership (as the case may be)
disposes of its interest in such entity within thirty (30) days after receiving
such notice), or (B) an interest in an entity that is treated as a corporation
for federal income tax purposes and (1) as to which the Partnership intends
that the Company will make “taxable REIT subsidiary” election under Section
856(l) of the Code after the IPO Date, so long as the provisions of clause (e)
have been complied with or (2) with respect to which the Company has made such
an election after the IPO Date (and such election is valid), so long as the
provisions of clause (e) have been complied with, (ii) stock in an entity that
is a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes, (iii) a
mortgage loan that is secured by real property with a value, as of the date of
acquisition, in excess of the amount of such loan and (iv) assets constituting
real estate assets, cash, cash items or government securities for purposes of
Section 856(c)(4)(A) of the Code.

 

(b)           Neither the Company nor the
Partnership shall hold, directly or indirectly (other than solely through an
interest in an entity that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income
tax purposes), any (i) stock in trade or other property of a kind that would
properly be includable in inventory at hand at the close of a taxable year or
(ii) property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a
trade or business. For purposes of this clause (b), the term “partnership”
shall not include any entity that is treated as a corporation for federal
income tax purposes.

 

(c)           Neither the Company nor the
Partnership shall hold, directly or indirectly, any REMIC residual interests.

 

(d)           Neither the Company nor the
Partnership shall provide services to tenants of the properties in which the
Company or the Partnership owns a direct or indirect interest other than (i)
services (other than Excluded Services (as defined below)) that are customarily
furnished

 

29

 

by landlords in the same
geographical area to tenants of or with respect to properties of similar type
and class in connection with the rental of space for occupancy only, (ii)
through (A) an “independent contractor” (as defined below) or (B) an entity
that is treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes and (1) as to
which the Partnership intends that the Company will make a “taxable REIT
subsidiary” election under Section 856(l) of the Code after the IPO Date, so
long as the provisions of clause (e) have been complied with or (2) with
respect to which the Company has made such an election after the IPO Date (and
such election is valid), so long as the provisions of clause (e) have been
complied with, or (iii) through any entity listed on such schedules as may be
provided by the Holder to the Company or the Partnership from time to time by
written notice. An entity or individual shall be treated as an independent
contractor if it (i) is not owned directly or indirectly by the Company or the
Partnership and from which neither the Company nor the Partnership derives any
income and (ii) is listed on a schedule provided by the Company or the
Partnership within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof by written
notice (or from time to time thereafter) to the Tax Director of Vornado (or
such other person identified by Vornado), provided that the Tax Director of
Vornado (or such other person) does not object to such person with ten (10)
Business Days after receiving such notice. “Excluded
Services” shall mean (i) cleaning services (other than in common
areas), (ii) “power space” services, (iii) conference room services, (iv)
catering services, (v) telecommunications services or (vi) any other services
provided within a tenant’s premises (other than maintenance services provided
for the Company or the Partnership’s benefit, services such as the provision of
lighting, heat, air conditioning, internet hook-ups and similar services (in
each case, to the extent customarily provided to tenants by owners of rental
properties of a similar class and located in the same geographic areas)).

 

(e)           For so long as a member of the
Holder holds any direct or indirect interest in the Partnership, the
Partnership shall not hold an ownership interest in any entity that is a
corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes without providing the Holder
with the opportunity to make a taxable REIT subsidiary election under Section
856(1) with respect to such entity (and if the Holder so elects, the
Partnership shall cause such entity to join in such election) by providing
notice to the Tax Director of Vornado (or such other person identified by
Vornado) within 10 business days of acquiring an interest in such entity and
allowing the members of the Holder at least 30 business days to choose to make
such an election.

 

(f)            No
taxable REIT subsidiary of the Company or the Partnership shall operate
property as a lodging facility (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(9)(D)(ii)
of the Code) or a health care facility (within the meaning of Section
856(e)(6)(D)(ii)), provided, however, that if the Internal Revenue
Service issues a private ruling to the Company concluding that the management
of student housing properties that offer short-term summer leasing arrangements
would not constitute the operation of a lodging facility (within the meaning of
Section 856(d)(9)(D)(ii) of the Code) and such ruling is applicable to any
partner in the Partnership that qualifies as a REIT, a taxable REIT subsidiary
of the Company or the Partnership shall be permitted to operate or manage such
properties.  Neither the Company nor the
Partnership shall (i)  rent property for
an amount based on income or profits of the tenant except to the extent that
gross income (as determined under the provisions of the Code relating to the
REIT gross income tests) from such rent, together with all other income not
qualifying under

 

30

 

Section 856(c)(2) of the Code,
does not exceed 5% of the gross income of the Partnership or the Company for
any taxable year, and (ii) enter into any arrangement whereby the Company or
the Partnership will derive income from a person listed on such schedules as
may be provided by the Holder to the Company or the Partnership from time to
time by written notice (provided that it shall not be a violation of this
clause (f) where the Company or the Partnership (as the case may be) derives
income from a person listed on such schedules as a result of arrangements in
place prior to the time at which the Company or the Partnership (as the case
may be) received written notice identifying such person on such schedules, so
long as the Company or the Partnership (as the case may be) ceases to derive
income from such person within thirty (30) days after receiving such notice.

 

(g)           During the Partnership
Restricted Period, the Partnership shall, and during the Company Restricted
Period, the Company shall, deliver to the Holder, at such times as may
reasonably be requested by the Holder (at least on a quarterly basis), a
certificate or certificates signed by General Partner (in the case of the
Partnership) or an appropriate officer of the Company (in the case of the
Company) to the effect that the Company or the Partnership (as the case may be)
has complied with the agreements set forth in this Section 6.11. In addition,
the Company, General Partner and the Partnership shall cooperate with the
Holder, including, without limitation, by providing information and documents
within their respective control relating to the income and assets of the
Company and the Partnership, even if the Holder at such time no longer holds an
interest in the Company or the Partnership, in addressing issues raised by any
taxing authority in any audit or similar proceeding relating to the Holder that
relates to or arises out of the Holder’s investment in the Partnership.

 

(h)           The Company and the Partnership
will, upon the request of the Holder, enter into a Trust Agreement
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Partnership Agreement,
as may be modified by the Holder from time to time to the extent the Holder
determines reasonably necessary to comply with any guidance issued by the
Internal Revenue Service.

 

(i)            Notwithstanding
the other provisions of this Section 6.11, neither the General Partner nor the
Partnership will be responsible for any failure to comply with such provisions
resulting from (A) the deemed treatment of rents as described in Section
856(d)(2)(B) of the Code where such rents would not be treated as rents
described in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code with respect to the Company or (B)
the ownership, either directly or under the attribution rules of Section
856(d)(5) of the Code, by the Holder of a direct or indirect interest in any
entity identified to the Tax Director of Vornado (or such other person
identified by Vornado) in a written notice provided by the Partnership, where
such Tax Director (or such other person) did not reasonably object in writing
within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of written notice from the Partnership
to the entering into by the Partnership or any of its Affiliates (as defined in
the Warrant) of a lease or similar arrangement with respect to such entity or
the use of such entity by the Partnership or any of its Affiliates (as defined
in the Warrant) as an “independent contractor” (determined as though the
Partnership were a REIT) within the meaning of Section 856(d)(3) of the Code.

 

31

 

(j)            If
either the Company or the Partnership during the Company Restricted Period and
the Partnership Restricted Period, respectively, or General Partner fails to
satisfy its obligations under this Section 6.11 and, as a result of such
failure, the Holder (1) fails to maintain its qualification as a REIT or (2)
otherwise incurs any liability for any tax, penalty or similar charges), the
Company and the Partnership shall indemnify the Holder for all losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the loss of any
deduction or other tax benefit) attributable to such failure, including without
limitation, the loss of REIT status (whether or not such any such losses,
damages, liabilities costs or other expenses arise during or after the Company
Restricted Period or the Partnership Restricted Period).

 

(k)           None of the management contracts
listed on Schedule 5 to Exhibit A of the Contribution Agreement dated as of
July 24, 2004, by and among the Partnership, GMH GP and GMH LP (the “Management
Agreements”) shall be contributed to the Partnership at any time during which
the Holder (as defined in the Warrant) holds its interest in the Partnership
through a taxable REIT subsidiary; provided, however, that if the
Internal Revenue Service issues a private ruling to the Partnership or the
Company concluding that the management of student housing properties that offer
short-term summer leasing arrangements would not constitute the operation of a
lodging facility (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(9)(ii) of the Code) and
such ruling is applicable to any partner in the Partnership that qualifies as a
REIT, one or more of the Management Contracts may be contributed to the
Partnership or a taxable REIT subsidiary of the Partnership.  From and after the date hereof, to the extent
that the owner of the Management Contracts and the Partnership share employees
with respect to the provision of services under the Management Contracts, the
Partnership and such owner shall have in place an employee sharing agreement
reasonable acceptable to the Holder, to be dated as of the date hereof, which
provides that each of the owner and the Partnership shall bear their respective
share of the overhead and expense with respect to such employees; provided,
that each of the Partnership and the owner shall reimburse the other party to
the extent it receives written notice that such other party has paid more than
its share of such expenses.  Any such
reimbursement shall be made within 10 business days after receipt of such
notice.

 

ARTICLE VII

 

CHANGES IN
GENERAL PARTNER

 

7.01        Transfer
of the General Partner’s Partnership Interest.

 

(a)           The General Partner shall not
transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest or withdraw as the
General Partner except as provided in or in connection with a transaction
contemplated by Section 7.01(b), (c) or (d).

 

(b)           Except as otherwise provided in
Section 7.01(c) or (d) hereof, the Company shall not engage in any merger,
consolidation or other combination with or into another Person or sale of all
or substantially all of its assets (other than in connection with a change in
the Company’s state of incorporation or organizational form), in each case
which

 

32

 

results in a change of control
of the Company (a “Transaction”),
unless at least one of the following conditions is met:

 

(i)            the consent of a Majority in Interest (other
than the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company) is obtained;

 

(ii)           as a result of such Transaction, all Limited
Partners will receive, or have the right to receive, for each Partnership Unit
an amount of cash, securities or other property equal in value to the product
of the Conversion Factor and the greatest amount of cash, securities or other
property paid in the Transaction to a holder of one REIT Share in consideration
for one REIT Share; provided  that if, in connection with the
Transaction, a purchase, tender or exchange offer (“Offer”) shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of
more than 50% of the outstanding REIT Shares, each holder of Partnership Units
shall be given the option to exchange its Partnership Units for the greatest
amount of cash, securities or other property that a Limited Partner would have
received had it (A) exercised its Redemption Right and (B) sold, tendered or
exchanged pursuant to the Offer the REIT Shares received upon exercise of the Redemption
Right immediately prior to the expiration of the Offer; or

 

(iii)          the Company is the surviving entity in the
Transaction and either (A) the holders of REIT Shares do not receive cash,
securities or other property in the Transaction or (B) all Limited
Partners (other than the Company or any Subsidiary) receive an amount of cash,
securities or other property having a value (expressed as an amount per REIT
Share) that is no less than the product of the Conversion Factor and the
greatest amount of cash, securities or other property having a value (expressed
as an amount per REIT Share) received in the Transaction by any holder of REIT
Shares.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding anything set
forth in Section 7.01(b), the Company may merge with or into or consolidate with
another entity if immediately after such merger or consolidation (i)
substantially all of the assets of the successor or surviving entity (the “Surviving Company”), other than Partnership
Units held by the Company, are contributed, directly or indirectly, to the
Partnership as a Capital Contribution in exchange for Partnership Units with a
fair market value equal to the value of the assets so contributed as determined
by the Surviving Company in good faith and (ii) the Surviving Company expressly
agrees to assume all obligations of the General Partner hereunder.  Upon such contribution and assumption, the
Surviving Company shall have the right and duty to amend this Agreement as set
forth in this Section 7.01(c).  The
Surviving Company shall in good faith arrive at a new method for the
calculation of the Cash Amount, the REIT Shares Amount and Conversion Factor
for a Partnership Unit after any such merger or consolidation so as to
approximate the existing method for such calculation as closely as reasonably
possible.  Such calculation shall take
into account, among other things, the kind and amount of securities, cash and
other property that was receivable upon such merger or consolidation by a
holder of REIT Shares or options, warrants or other rights relating thereto,
and which a holder of Partnership Units could have acquired had

 

33

 

such Partnership Units been
exchanged immediately prior to such merger or consolidation.  Such amendment to this Agreement shall
provide for adjustment to such method of calculation, which shall be as nearly
equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for with respect
to the Conversion Factor.  The Surviving
Company also shall in good faith modify the definition of REIT Shares and make
such amendments to Section 8.04 hereof so as to approximate the existing rights
and obligations set forth in Section 8.04 as closely as reasonably
possible.  The above provisions of this
Section 7.01(c) shall similarly apply to successive mergers or consolidations
permitted hereunder.

 

In
respect of any transaction described in the preceding paragraph, the General
Partner is required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to structure
such transaction to avoid causing the Limited Partners to recognize a gain for
federal income tax purposes by virtue of the occurrence of or their
participation in such transaction, provided such efforts are consistent with
and subject in all respects to the exercise of the Board of Trustees’ fiduciary
duties to the shareholders of the Company under applicable law.

 

(d)           Notwithstanding anything in this
Article VII,

 

(i)            the General Partner may transfer all or any
portion of its General Partnership Interest to (A) any wholly-owned Subsidiary
of the General Partner or (B) a parent company of the General Partner, and
following a transfer of all of its General Partnership Interest, may withdraw
as General Partner; and

 

(ii)           the General Partner or the Company may engage
in a transaction required by law or by the rules of any national securities
exchange or over-the-counter interdealer quotation system on which the REIT
Shares are listed or traded.

 

7.02        Admission of a Substitute or Additional General Partner. 
A Person shall be admitted as a substitute or additional General Partner
of the Partnership only if the following terms and conditions are satisfied:

 

(a)           the Person to be admitted as a
substitute or additional General Partner shall have accepted and agreed to be
bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement by executing a
counterpart thereof and such other documents or instruments as may be required
or appropriate in order to effect the admission of such Person as a General
Partner, and a certificate evidencing the admission of such Person as a General
Partner shall have been filed for recordation and all other actions required by
Section 2.05 hereof in connection with such admission shall have been
performed;

 

(b)           if the Person to be admitted as
a substitute or additional General Partner is a corporation or a partnership,
it shall have provided the Partnership with evidence satisfactory to counsel
for the Partnership of such Person’s authority to become a General Partner and
to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement; and

 

34

 

(c)           counsel for the Partnership
shall have rendered an opinion (relying on such opinions from other counsel and
the state or any other jurisdiction as may be necessary) that the admission of
the Person to be admitted as a substitute or additional General Partner is in
conformity with the Act, that none of the actions taken in connection with the
admission of such Person as a substitute or additional General Partner will
cause (i) the Partnership to be classified other than as a partnership for
federal income tax purposes, or (ii) the loss of any Limited Partner’s limited
liability.

 

7.03        Effect
of Bankruptcy, Withdrawal, or Dissolution of a General Partner.

 

(a)           Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Bankruptcy as to the General Partner (and its removal pursuant to Section
7.04(a) hereof) or the withdrawal, removal or dissolution of the General
Partner (except that, if the General Partner is on the date of such occurrence
a partnership, the withdrawal, death, dissolution, Event of Bankruptcy as to,
or removal of a partner in, such partnership shall be deemed not to be a
dissolution of such General Partner if the business of such General Partner is
continued by the remaining partner or partners), the Partnership shall be
dissolved and terminated unless the Partnership is continued pursuant to
Section 7.03(b) hereof.  The merger of
the General Partner with or into any entity that is admitted as a substitute or
successor General Partner pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof shall not be deemed
to be the withdrawal, dissolution or removal of the General Partner.

 

(b)           Following the occurrence of an
Event of Bankruptcy as to the General Partner (and its removal pursuant to
Section 7.04(a) hereof) or the withdrawal, removal or dissolution of the
General Partner (except that, if the General Partner is on the date of such
occurrence a partnership, the withdrawal, death, dissolution, Event of
Bankruptcy as to, or removal of a partner in, such partnership shall be deemed
not to be a dissolution of such General Partner if the business of such General
Partner is continued by the remaining partner or partners), the Limited
Partners, within 90 days after such occurrence, may elect to continue the
business of the Partnership by selecting, subject to Section 7.02 hereof and
any other provisions of this Agreement, a substitute General Partner by consent
of a Majority in Interest.  If the
Limited Partners elect to continue the business of the Partnership and admit a
substitute General Partner, the relationship with the Partners and of any
Person who has acquired an interest of a Partner in the Partnership shall be
governed by this Agreement.

 

7.04        Removal
of the General Partner.

 

(a)           Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Bankruptcy as to, or the dissolution of, the General Partner, the General
Partner shall be deemed to be removed automatically; provided, however,
that if the General Partner is on the date of such occurrence a partnership,
the withdrawal, death, dissolution, Event of Bankruptcy as to or removal of a
partner in such partnership shall be deemed not to be a dissolution of the
General Partner if the business of such General Partner is continued by the
remaining partner or partners.  The
Limited Partners may not remove the General Partner, with or without cause.

 

(b)           If the General Partner has been
removed pursuant to this Section 7.04 and the Partnership is continued pursuant
to Section 7.03 hereof, the General Partner shall promptly

 

35

 

transfer and assign its General
Partnership Interest in the Partnership to the substitute General Partner
approved by a Majority in Interest in accordance with Section 7.03(b) hereof
and otherwise be admitted to the Partnership in accordance with Section 7.02
hereof.  At the time of assignment, the
removed General Partner shall be entitled to receive from the substitute
General Partner the fair market value of the General Partnership Interest of
such removed General Partner as reduced by any damages caused to the
Partnership by such General Partner. 
Such fair market value shall be determined by an appraiser mutually
agreed upon by the General Partner and a Majority in Interest (excluding the
General Partner) within 10 days following the removal of the General Partner.  In the event that the parties are unable to
agree upon an appraiser, the removed General Partner and a Majority in Interest
each shall select an appraiser.  Each
such appraiser shall complete an appraisal of the fair market value of the
removed General Partner’s General Partnership Interest within 30 days of the
General Partner’s removal, and the fair market value of the removed General
Partner’s General Partnership Interest shall be the average of the two
appraisals; provided, however, that if the higher appraisal
exceeds the lower appraisal by more than 20% of the amount of the lower
appraisal, the two appraisers, no later than 40 days after the removal of the
General Partner, shall select a third appraiser who shall complete an appraisal
of the fair market value of the removed General Partner’s General Partnership
Interest no later than 60 days after the removal of the General Partner.  In such case, the fair market value of the
removed General Partner’s General Partnership Interest shall be the average of
the two appraisals closest in value.

 

(c)           The General Partnership Interest
of a removed General Partner, during the time after default until transfer
under Section 7.04(b), shall be converted to that of a special Limited Partner;
provided, however, such removed General Partner shall not have
any rights to participate in the management and affairs of the Partnership, and
shall not be entitled to any portion of the income, expense, profit, gain or
loss allocations or cash distributions allocable or payable, as the case may
be, to the Limited Partners.  Instead,
such removed General Partner shall receive and be entitled only to retain
distributions or allocations of such items that it would have been entitled to
receive in its capacity as General Partner, until the transfer is effective
pursuant to Section 7.04(b).

 

(d)           All Partners shall have given
and hereby do give such consents, shall take such actions and shall execute
such documents as shall be legally necessary and sufficient to effect all of the
foregoing provisions of this Section.

 

ARTICLE VIII

 

RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS

OF THE LIMITED PARTNERS

 

8.01        Management of the Partnership. 
The Limited Partners shall not participate in the management or control
of Partnership business nor shall they transact any business for the
Partnership, nor shall they have the power to sign for or bind the Partnership,
such powers being vested solely and exclusively in the General Partner.

 

36

 

8.02        Power of Attorney.  Each Limited Partner hereby irrevocably
appoints the General Partner its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, who may act
for each Limited Partner and in its name, place and stead, and for its use and
benefit, to sign, acknowledge, swear to, deliver, file or record, at the
appropriate public offices, any and all documents, certificates and instruments
as may be deemed necessary or desirable by the General Partner to carry out
fully the provisions of this Agreement and the Act in accordance with their
terms, including amendments hereto, which power of attorney is coupled with an
interest and shall survive the death, dissolution or legal incapacity of the
Limited Partner, or the transfer by the Limited Partner of any part or all of
its Partnership Interest.

 

8.03        Limitation on Liability of Limited Partners. 
No Limited Partner shall be liable for any debts, liabilities, contracts
or obligations of the Partnership.  A
Limited Partner shall be liable to the Partnership only to make payments of its
Capital Contribution, if any, as and when due hereunder.  After its Capital Contribution is fully paid,
no Limited Partner shall, except as otherwise required by the Act, be required
to make any further Capital Contributions or other payments or lend any funds
to the Partnership.

 

8.04        Redemption
Right.

 

(a)           Subject to Sections 8.04(b)
through (g), and the provisions of any agreements between the Partnership and
one or more Limited Partners with respect to Partnership Units held by them and
any restriction agreed to in writing between the Redeeming Limited Partner and
the General Partner, each Limited Partner, other than the Company or the
General Partner, shall have the right (the “Redemption
Right”) to require the Partnership to redeem on a Specified
Redemption Date all or a portion of the Partnership Units that have been held
by such Limited Partner for at least one year (or such lesser time as
determined by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion) at a
redemption price equal to and in the form of the Redemption Amount to be paid
by the Partnership.  The Redemption Right
shall be exercised pursuant to a Notice of Redemption delivered to the
Partnership (with a copy to the General Partner) by the Limited Partner who is
exercising the Redemption Right (the “Redeeming
Limited Partner”); provided, however, that the
Partnership shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, have the option to
deliver either the Cash Amount or the REIT Shares Amount, provided, further,
that the Partnership shall not be obligated to satisfy such Redemption Right if
the Company elects to purchase the Partnership Units subject to the Notice of
Redemption.  A Limited Partner may not
exercise the Redemption Right for less than 1,000 Partnership Units or, if such
Limited Partner holds less than 1,000 Partnership Units, all of the Partnership
Units held by such Partner.  The
Redeeming Limited Partner shall have no right, with respect to any Partnership
Units so redeemed, to receive any distribution paid with respect to Partnership
Units if the record date for such distribution is on or after the Specified
Redemption Date.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding the provisions
of Section 8.04(a), a Limited Partner that exercises the Redemption Right
shall be deemed to have offered to sell the Partnership Units described in the
Notice of Redemption to the Company, and the Company may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, elect to purchase directly and acquire such Partnership
Units by paying to the

 

37

 

Redeeming Limited Partner either
the Cash Amount or the REIT Shares Amount, as may be elected by the Company (in
its sole and absolute discretion), on the Specified Redemption Date, whereupon
the Company shall acquire the Partnership Units offered for redemption by the Redeeming
Limited Partner and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the
owner of such acquired Partnership Units. 
If the Company shall elect to exercise its right to purchase Partnership
Units under this Section 8.04(b) with respect to a Notice of Redemption,
it shall so notify the Redeeming Limited Partner within five Business Days
after the receipt by the General Partner of such Notice of Redemption.  In the event the Company shall exercise its
right to purchase Partnership Units with respect to the exercise of a
Redemption Right, the Partnership shall have no obligation to pay any amount to
the Redeeming Limited Partner with respect to such Redeeming Limited Partner’s
exercise of such Redemption Right, and each of the Redeeming Limited Partner,
the Partnership, the Company and the General Partner shall treat the
transaction between the Company and the Redeeming Limited Partner for federal
income tax purposes as a sale of the Redeeming Limited Partner’s Partnership
Units to the Company.  Each Redeeming
Limited Partner agrees to execute such documents as the Company may reasonably
require in connection with the issuance of REIT Shares upon exercise of the
Redemption Right.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding the provisions
of Sections 8.04(a) and 8.04(b), with respect to an amount of Partnership
Units owned by the Holloway Group (as
defined in the Declaration of the Trust) as of the date hereof which, if
converted into REIT Shares, would not result in the Holloway Group owning,
directly or under applicable ownership attribution rules (as described in the
Declaration of Trust) applicable to the Holloway Group, REIT Shares in excess
of the Ownership Limitation (as defined in the Declaration of Trust) applicable
to the Holloway Group (the “Direct Conversion
Units”) or an amount that would cause the Company to fail to qualify
as a REIT under the Code, the Holloway Group shall have the right to require
the Partnership to redeem, on a date that is five Business Days after the
Partnership’s receipt of a Notice of Redemption (“Direct Conversion Units Redemption Date”), all or a portion of
the Direct Conversion Units that have been held by the Holloway Group for at
least one year (or such lesser time as determined by the General Partner in its
sole and absolute discretion) at a redemption price equal to and in the form of
the REIT Shares Amount (determined by substituting “5” for “60” in the
definition of Specified Redemption Date); provided, however, upon
the Holloway Group’s exercise of such right, it shall be deemed to have offered
to sell the Direct Conversion Units described in the Notice of Redemption to
the Company, and the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to
purchase directly and acquire such Partnership Units by paying to the Holloway
Group the REIT Shares Amount on the Direct Conversion Units Redemption Date,
whereupon the Company shall acquire the Partnership Units offered for
redemption by the Holloway Group and shall be treated for all purposes of this
Agreement as the owner of such acquired Partnership Units; provided, further,
(i) the Holloway Group may not exercise its right under this Section 8.04(c) to
convert Direct Conversion Units into the REIT Shares Amount for an amount of
Partnership Units less than an amount that would qualify as a “block transfer”
within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.7704-1(e)(2), (ii) the number of
Direct Conversion Units as to which the Holloway Group has the rights provided
in this Section 8.04(c) shall be reduced by the number of Partnership Units previously
transferred (whether by sale, redemption or otherwise) by the Holloway Group
and (iii) the Holloway Group may not exercise the right under this Section
8.04(c) if the Company determines that the exercise

 

38

 

of such right would prevent the
Company from qualifying as a REIT under the Code or would cause the Company to
incur additional tax under Section 857 or 4981 of the Code.  The rights provided in this Section 8.04(c) shall
not be transferable.  If the Company
shall elect to exercise its right to purchase Partnership Units under this
Section 8.04(c) with respect to such Notice of Redemption, it shall so
notify the Holloway Group within two Business Days after the receipt by the
General Partner of such Notice of Redemption. 
In the event the Company shall exercise its right to purchase
Partnership Units with respect to the exercise of such Redemption Right, the
Partnership shall have no obligation to pay any amount to the Holloway Group
with respect to its exercise of such Redemption Right, and each of the Holloway
Group, the Partnership and the Company shall treat the transaction between the
Company and the Holloway Group for federal income tax purposes as a sale of the
Holloway Group’s Partnership Units to the Company.  The Holloway Group agrees to execute such
documents as the Company may reasonably require in connection with the issuance
of REIT Shares upon exercise of the Redemption Right.

 

(d)           Notwithstanding the provisions
of Sections 8.04(a), 8.04(b) and 8.04(c), a Limited Partner shall not be
entitled to exercise the Redemption Right if, in the case of Section 8.04(b),
the delivery of REIT Shares to such Partner on the Specified Redemption Date by
the Company pursuant to Section 8.04(b) (regardless of whether or not the
General Partner would in fact exercise its rights under Section 8.04(b))
and, in the case of Section 8.04(c), the delivery of REIT Shares to the
Holloway Group on the Direct Conversion Units Redemption Date by the Company pursuant
to Section 8.04(c), would (i) result in such Partner or any other Person
owning, directly or indirectly, REIT Shares in excess of the Ownership
Limitation (as defined in the Declaration of Trust and calculated in accordance
therewith, except as provided in the Declaration of Trust), (ii) result in REIT
Shares being owned by fewer than 100 persons (determined without reference to
any rules of attribution), (iii) result in the Company being “closely held”
within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, (iv) cause the Company to
own, directly or constructively, 10% or more of the ownership interests in a
tenant of the Company’s, General Partner’s, the Partnership’s or a Subsidiary
Partnership’s real property, within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the
Code, or (v) be likely to cause the acquisition of REIT Shares by such Partner
to be “integrated” with any other distribution of REIT Shares or Partnership
Units for purposes of complying with the registration provisions of the
Securities Act.  The General Partner, in
its sole and absolute discretion, may waive the restriction on redemption set
forth in this Section 8.04(d).

 

(e)           Any Cash Amount to be paid to a
Redeeming Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 8.04 shall be paid on the
Specified Redemption Date; provided, however, that the General
Partner may elect to cause the Specified Redemption Date to be delayed for up
to an additional 90 days to the extent required for the General Partner to
cause additional REIT Shares to be issued to provide financing to be used to
make such payment of the Cash Amount. 
Any REIT Share Amount to be paid to a Redeeming Limited Partner pursuant
to this Section 8.04 shall be paid on the Specified Redemption Date; provided,
however, that the General Partner may elect to cause the Specified
Redemption Date to be delayed for up to an additional 60 days to the extent
required for the General Partner to cause additional REIT Shares to be
issued.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the General Partner agrees to use its best efforts to cause the

 

39

 

closing of the acquisition of
redeemed Partnership Units hereunder to occur as quickly as reasonably
possible.

 

(f)            Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the General Partner is authorized to
take any action that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to cause the
Partnership to comply with any withholding requirements established under the
Code or any other federal, state or local law that apply upon a Redeeming Limited
Partner’s exercise of the Redemption Right. 
If a Redeeming Limited Partner believes that it is exempt from such
withholding upon the exercise of the Redemption Right, such Partner must
furnish the General Partner with a FIRPTA Certificate in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit B.  If the
Partnership or the General Partner is required to withhold and pay over to any
taxing authority any amount upon a Redeeming Limited Partner’s exercise of the
Redemption Right and if the Redemption Amount equals or exceeds the Withheld
Amount, the Withheld Amount shall be treated as an amount received by such
Partner in redemption of its Partnership Units. 
If, however, the Redemption Amount is less than the Withheld Amount, the
Redeeming Limited Partner shall not receive any portion of the Redemption
Amount, the Redemption Amount shall be treated as an amount received by such
Partner in redemption of its Partnership Units, and the Partner shall
contribute the excess of the Withheld Amount over the Redemption Amount to the
Partnership before the Partnership is required to pay over such excess to a
taxing authority.

 

(g)           Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the General Partner shall place appropriate
restrictions on the ability of the Limited Partners to exercise their
Redemption Rights (including the rights granted to the Holloway Group by
Section 8.04(c)) as and if deemed necessary to ensure that the Partnership does
not constitute a “publicly traded partnership” under section 7704 of the Code.  If and when the General Partner determines
that imposing such restrictions is necessary, the General Partner shall give
prompt written notice thereof (a “Restriction
Notice”) to each of the Limited Partners, which notice shall be
accompanied by a copy of an opinion of counsel to the Partnership that states
that, in the opinion of such counsel, restrictions are necessary in order to
avoid the Partnership being treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under
section 7704 of the Code.

 

8.05        Registration.  Subject to the terms of any
agreement between the General Partner and one or more Limited Partners with
respect to Partnership Units held by them, including, without limitation, the
Registration Rights Agreement, dated July 27, 2004, as amended, by and among
the Company, the Partnership, GMH Communities GP, LLC, Gary M. Holloway and
Vornado Realty, L.P., and the Registration Rights Agreement, dated October    ,
2004, by and among the Company and FW Military Housing LLC:

 

(a)           Shelf
Registration of the Common Stock.  Effective as of such date as the Company
becomes eligible to use a registration statement on Form S-3 for the
registration of securities under the Securities Act (the “S-3 Eligible Date”), the Company shall file
with the Commission a shelf registration statement under Rule 415 of the
Securities Act (a “Registration Statement”),
or any similar rule that may be adopted by the Commission, covering (i) the
issuance of the Common Shares issuable upon redemption of the Partnership Units

 

40

 

(“Redemption Shares”) and/or (ii) the resale by the holder of
the Redemption Shares, such Registration Statement to be filed as follows:

 

(A) within six
months following the S-3 Eligible Date with respect to Partnership Units issued
prior to the S-3 Eligible Date; and

 

(B) within
nine months following the date Partnership Units are issued with respect to
Partnership Units issued on or after the S-3 Eligible Date;

 

provided,
however, that only two such Registration Statements are required to be
filed by the Company in any 12-month period. 
In connection therewith, the Company will:

 

(i) use its
reasonable best efforts to have such Registration Statement declared effective
as soon as reasonably practicable;

 

(ii) furnish
to each holder of Redemption Shares such number of copies of prospectuses, and
supplements or amendments thereto, and such other documents as such holder
reasonably requests;

 

(iii) register
or qualify the Redemption Shares covered by the Registration Statement under
the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States
as any holder of Redemption Shares shall reasonably request, and do such other
reasonable acts and things as may be required of it to enable such holders to
consummate the sale or other disposition in such jurisdictions of the
Redemption Shares; provided, however, that the General Partner shall not be
required to (A) qualify as a foreign corporation or consent to a general or
unlimited service or process in any jurisdictions in which it would not
otherwise be required to be qualified or so consent or (B) qualify as a dealer
in securities; and

 

(iv) otherwise
use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and
regulations of the Commission.

 

The Company
further agrees to supplement or make amendments to each Registration Statement,
if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the
registration form utilized by the Company or by the Securities Act or rules and
regulations thereunder for such Registration Statement.  Each Limited Partner agrees to furnish to the
Company, upon request, such information with respect to the Limited Partner as
may be required to complete and file the Registration Statement.

 

In connection
with and as a condition to the Company’s obligations with respect to the filing
of a Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 8.05, each Limited Partner
agrees with the Company that:

 

(i)            it
will not offer or sell its Redemption Shares until (A) such Redemption Shares
have been included in a Registration Statement and (B) it has received copies
of a prospectus, and any supplement or amendment thereto, as contemplated by
Section 8.05(a) hereof, and

 

41

 

receives notice that the Registration
Statement covering such Redemption Shares, or any post-effective amendment
thereto, has been declared effective by the Commission;

 

(ii)           if
the Company determines in its good faith judgment, after consultation with
counsel, that the use of the Registration Statement, including any
post-effective amendment thereto, or the use of any prospectus contained in
such Registration Statement would require the disclosure of important
information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as
confidential or the disclosure of which would impede the Company’s ability to
consummate a significant transaction, upon written notice of such determination
by the Company, the rights of each Limited Partner to offer, sell or distribute
its Redemption Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement or prospectus or
to require the Company to take action with respect to the registration or sale
of any Redemption Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement (including any
action contemplated by this Section 8.05) will be suspended until the date upon
which the Company notifies such Limited Partner in writing (which notice shall
be deemed sufficient if given through the issuance of a press release) that
suspension of such rights for the grounds set forth in this paragraph is no
longer necessary; provided, however, that the Company may not suspend such
rights for an aggregate period of more than 90 days in any 12-month period; and

 

(iii)          in
the case of the registration of any underwritten equity offering proposed by
the Company (other than any registration by the Company on Form S-8, or a
successor or substantially similar form, of (A) an employee stock option, stock
purchase or compensation plan or of securities issued or issuable pursuant to
any such plan or (B) a dividend reinvestment plan), each Limited Partner will
agree, if requested in writing by the managing underwriter or underwriters
administering such offering, not to effect any offer, sale or distribution of
any REIT Shares (or any option or right to acquire REIT Shares) during the
period commencing on the 10th day prior to the expected effective date (which
date shall be stated in such notice) of the registration statement covering
such underwritten primary equity offering or, if such offering shall be a
“take-down” from an effective shelf registration statement, the 10th day prior
to the expected commencement date (which date shall be stated in such notice)
of such offering, and ending on the date specified by such managing underwriter
in such written request to the Limited Partners; provided, however, that no
Limited Partner shall be required to agree not to effect any offer, sale or
distribution of its Redemption Shares for a period of time that is longer than
the greater of 90 days or the period of time for which any senior executive of
the Company is required so to agree in connection with such offering.  Nothing in this paragraph shall be read to
limit the ability of any Limited Partner to redeem its Partnership Units for
REIT Shares in accordance with this Agreement.

 

(b)           Listing
on Securities Exchange. 
If the Company shall list or maintain the listing of any REIT Shares on
any securities exchange or national market system, it will, at its expense and
as necessary to permit the registration and sale of the Redemption Shares
hereunder, list thereon, maintain and, when necessary, increase such listing to
include such Redemption Shares.

 

42

 

(c)           Registration
Not Required.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not be required to file or maintain the
effectiveness of a registration statement relating to Redemption Shares after
the earlier of (i) the first date upon which, in the opinion of counsel to the
Company, all of the Redemption Shares covered thereby could be sold by the
holders thereof in any period of three months pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, or any successor rule thereto or (ii) the second anniversary of
the effective date of the Registration Statement.

 

(d)           Allocation
of Expenses.  The Partnership
shall pay all REIT Expenses; provided, however, the Partnership
shall not be liable for (i) any discounts or commissions to any underwriter or
broker attributable to the sale of Redemption Shares, or (ii) any fees or
expenses incurred by holders of Redemption Shares in connection with such
registration that, according to the written instructions of any regulatory
authority, the Partnership is not permitted to pay.

 

(e)           Indemnification.

 

(i)            In connection with the Registration Statement,
the Company and the Partnership agree to indemnify holders of Redemption Shares
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable costs of
investigation) caused by any untrue, or alleged untrue, statement of a material
fact contained in the Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or
prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any
amendments or supplements thereto) or caused by any omission or alleged
omission, to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are caused by any untrue
statement, alleged untrue statement, omission, or alleged omission based upon
information furnished to the Company by the Limited Partner of the holder for
use therein.  The Company and each
officer, director and controlling person of the Company shall be indemnified by
each Limited Partner or holder of Redemption Shares covered by the Registration
Statement for all such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
(including reasonable costs of investigation) caused by any untrue, or alleged
untrue, statement or any omission, or alleged omission, based upon information
furnished to the Company by the Limited Partner or the holder for use therein.

 

(ii)           Promptly upon receipt by a party indemnified
under this Section 8.05(e) of notice of the commencement of any action against
such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity or reimbursement may be
sought against any indemnifying party under this Section 8.05(e), such
indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement
of such action, but the failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not
relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise
than under this Section 8.05(e) unless such failure shall materially adversely
affect the defense of such action.  In
case notice of commencement of any such action shall be given to the

 

43

 

indemnifying party as above provided, the indemnifying party shall be
entitled to participate in and, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any
other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of such
action at its own expense, with counsel chosen by it and reasonably
satisfactory to such indemnified party. 
The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in
any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the reasonable fees
and expenses of such counsel (other than reasonable costs of investigation)
shall be paid by the indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party agrees
to pay the same, (ii) the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense of
such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party or
(iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties)
have been advised by such counsel that representation of such indemnified party
and the indemnifying party by the same counsel would be inappropriate under
applicable standards of professional conduct (in which case the indemnified
party shall have the right to separate counsel and the indemnifying party shall
pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel).  No indemnifying party shall be liable for any
settlement entered into without its consent.

 

(f)            Contribution.

 

(i)            If for any reason the indemnification
provisions contemplated by Section 8.05(e) are either unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then the party that would
otherwise be required to provide indemnification or the indemnifying party (in
either case, for purposes of this Section 8.05(f), the “Indemnifying Party”) in respect of such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by the party that would otherwise be entitled to indemnification or the
indemnified party (in either case, for purposes of this Section 8.05(f), the “Indemnified Party”) as a result of such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expense, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party
and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission
or alleged omission to state a material fact related to information supplied by
the Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission.  The amount paid
or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other
fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party.

 

(ii)           The parties hereto agree that it would not be
just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8.05(f) were
determined by pro rata allocation (even if the holders were treated as one
entity for such purpose) or by

 

44

 

any other method of allocation that does not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph.  No person or entity determined
to have committed a fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person
or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

The contribution
provided for in this Section 8.05(f) shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.

 

ARTICLE IX

 

TRANSFERS
OF PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS

 

9.01        Purchase
for Investment.

 

(a)           Each Limited Partner, by its
signature below or by its subsequent admission to the Partnership, hereby
represents and warrants to the General Partner and to the Partnership that the
acquisition of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Interests is made as a
principal for such Limited Partner’s account for investment purposes only and
not with a view to the resale or distribution of such Partnership Interest.

 

(b)           Subject to the provisions of
Section 9.02, each Limited Partner agrees that such Limited Partner will not
sell, assign or otherwise transfer such Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest
or any fraction thereof, whether voluntarily or by operation of law or at
judicial sale or otherwise, to any Person who does not make the representations
and warranties to the General Partner set forth in Section 9.01(a) above.

 

9.02        Restrictions
on Transfer of Partnership Interests.

 

(a)           Subject to the provisions of
Sections 9.02(b), (c) and (d), no Limited Partner may offer, sell, assign, hypothecate,
pledge or otherwise transfer all or any portion of such Limited Partner’s
Partnership Interest, or any of such Limited Partner’s economic rights as a
Limited Partner, whether voluntarily or by operation of law or at judicial sale
or otherwise (collectively, a “Transfer”)
without the consent of the General Partner, which consent may be granted or
withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. 
The General Partner may require, as a condition of any Transfer to which
it consents, that the transferor assume all costs incurred by the Partnership
in connection therewith.

 

(b)           No Limited Partner may withdraw
from the Partnership other than as a result of a permitted Transfer (i.e.,
a Transfer consented to as contemplated by clause (a) above or
clause (c) below or a Transfer pursuant to Section 9.05 below) of all of
such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units pursuant to this Article IX or
pursuant to a redemption of all such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units
pursuant to Section 8.04.  Upon the
permitted Transfer or redemption

 

45

 

of all of a Limited Partner’s
Partnership Units, such Limited Partner shall cease to be a Limited Partner.

 

(c)           Subject to Sections 9.02(d), (e)
and (f) below, a Limited Partner may Transfer all or any portion of such
Limited Partner’s Partnership Units, with the consent of the General Partner,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to the transferee in an
Exempt Transfer.  The term “Exempt Transfer” shall mean a transfer by a
Limited Partner to such Limited Partner’s (i) parent or parent’s spouse, (ii)
spouse, (iii) natural or adopted descendant or descendants, (iv) spouse of
descendant, (v) brother or sister, (vi) trust created by such Limited Partner
for the primary benefit of such Limited Partner and/or any such persons
described in (i) through (v) above of which trust such Limited Partner or any
such person(s) or bank or other commercial entity in the business of acting as
a fiduciary in its ordinary course of business and having an equity
capitalization of at least $100,000,000 is a Trustee, (vii) a corporation,
partnership or limited liability company controlled by a Person or Persons
named in (i) through (v) above or (viii) if the Limited Partner is an entity,
its beneficial owners.

 

(d)           No Limited Partner may effect a
Transfer of its Partnership Interest, in whole or in part, if, in the opinion
of legal counsel for the Partnership, such proposed Transfer would require the
registration of the Partnership Interest under the Securities Act or would
otherwise violate any applicable federal or state securities or blue sky law
(including investment suitability standards).

 

(e)           No Transfer by a Limited Partner
of its Partnership Interest, in whole or in part, may be made to any Person if
(i) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, the transfer would
result in the Partnership’s being treated as an association taxable as a
corporation (other than a qualified REIT subsidiary within the meaning of
Section 856(i) of the Code), (ii) in the opinion of legal counsel for the
Partnership, it would adversely affect the ability of the Company to continue
to qualify as a REIT or subject the Company to any additional taxes under
Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code or (iii) such transfer is effectuated
through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the
substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the
Code.

 

(f)            Any
purported Transfer in contravention of any of the provisions of this Article IX
shall be void ab initio and ineffectual and
shall not be binding upon, or recognized by, the General Partner or the
Partnership.

 

(g)           Prior to the consummation of any
Transfer under this Article IX, the transferor and/or the transferee shall
deliver to the General Partner such opinions, certificates and other documents
as the General Partner shall request in connection with such Transfer.

 

9.03        Admission
of Substitute Limited Partner.

 

(a)           Subject to the other provisions
of this Article IX, an assignee of the Partnership Interest of a Limited
Partner (which shall be understood to include any purchaser, transferee, donee
or other recipient of any disposition of such Partnership Interest) shall be

 

46

 

deemed admitted as a Limited
Partner of the Partnership only upon the satisfactory completion of the
following:

 

(i)            The assignee shall have accepted and agreed
to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement by executing a
counterpart or an amendment thereof, a revised Schedule A setting forth the
allocation of the Partnership Units among the Partners, and such other
documents or instruments as the General Partner may require in order to effect
the admission of such Person as a Limited Partner.

 

(ii)           To the extent required, an amended
Certificate evidencing the admission of such Person as a Limited Partner shall
have been signed, acknowledged and filed for record in accordance with the Act.

 

(iii)          The assignee shall have delivered a letter
containing the representation set forth in Section 9.01(a) hereof and the
agreement set forth in Section 9.01(b) hereof.

 

(iv)          If the assignee is a corporation, partnership
or trust, the assignee shall have provided the General Partner with evidence
satisfactory to counsel for the Partnership of the assignee’s authority to
become a Limited Partner under the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

 

(v)           The assignee shall have executed a power of
attorney containing the terms and provisions set forth in Section 8.02 hereof.

 

(vi)          The assignee shall have paid all legal fees
and other expenses of the Partnership and the General Partner and filing and
publication costs in connection with its substitution as a Limited Partner.

 

(vii)         The assignee has obtained the prior written
consent of the General Partner to its admission as a Substitute Limited
Partner, which consent may be given or denied in the exercise of the General
Partner’s sole and absolute discretion.

 

(b)           For the purpose of allocating
Profits and Losses and distributing cash received by the Partnership, a
Substitute Limited Partner shall be treated as having become, and appearing in
the records of the Partnership as, a Partner upon the filing of the Certificate
described in Section 9.03(a)(ii) hereof or, if no such filing is required, the
later of the date specified in the transfer documents or the date on which the
General Partner has received all necessary instruments of transfer and
substitution.

 

(c)           The General Partner shall
cooperate with the Person seeking to become a Substitute Limited Partner by
preparing the documentation required by this Section and making all official
filings and publications.  The
Partnership shall take all such action as promptly as

 

47

 

practicable after the
satisfaction of the conditions in this Article IX to the admission of such
Person as a Limited Partner of the Partnership.

 

9.04        Rights
of Assignees of Partnership Interests.

 

(a)           Subject to the provisions of
Sections 9.01 and 9.02 hereof, except as required by operation of law, the
Partnership shall not be obligated for any purposes whatsoever to recognize the
assignment by any Limited Partner of its Partnership Interest until the
Partnership has received notice thereof.

 

(b)           Any Person who is the assignee
of all or any portion of a Limited Partner’s Limited Partnership Interest, but
does not become a Substitute Limited Partner and desires to make a further
assignment of such Limited Partnership Interest, shall be subject to all the
provisions of this Article IX to the same extent and in the same manner as any
Limited Partner desiring to make an assignment of its Limited Partnership
Interest.

 

9.05        Effect of Bankruptcy, Death, Incompetence or Termination of a
Limited Partner.  The occurrence of an Event of Bankruptcy as
to a Limited Partner, the death of a Limited Partner or a final adjudication
that a Limited Partner is incompetent (which term shall include, but not be
limited to, insanity) shall not cause the termination or dissolution of the
Partnership, and the business of the Partnership shall continue if an order for
relief in a bankruptcy proceeding is entered against a Limited Partner, the
trustee or receiver of such Limited Partner’s estate or, if such Limited
Partner dies, such Limited Partner’s executor, administrator or trustee, or, if
such Limited Partner is finally adjudicated incompetent, such Limited Partner’s
committee, guardian or conservator, shall have the rights of such Limited
Partner for the purpose of settling or managing such Limited Partner’s estate
property and such power as the bankrupt, deceased or incompetent Limited
Partner possessed to assign all or any part of his Partnership Interest and to
join with the assignee in satisfying conditions precedent to the admission of
the assignee as a Substitute Limited Partner.

 

9.06        Joint Ownership of Interests. 
A Partnership Interest may be acquired by two individuals as joint
tenants with right of survivorship, provided that such individuals either are
married or are related and share the same home as tenants in common.  The written consent or vote of both owners of
any such jointly held Partnership Interest shall be required to constitute the
action of the owners of such Partnership Interest; provided, however,
that the written consent of only one joint owner will be required if the
Partnership has been provided with evidence satisfactory to the counsel for the
Partnership that the actions of a single joint owner can bind both owners under
the applicable laws of the state of residence of such joint owners.  Upon the death of one owner of a Partnership
Interest held in a joint tenancy with a right of survivorship, the Partnership
Interest shall become owned solely by the survivor as a Limited Partner and not
as an assignee.  The Partnership need not
recognize the death of one of the owners of a jointly-held Partnership Interest
until it shall have received notice of such death.  Upon notice to the General Partner from
either owner, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership Interest to be
divided into two equal Partnership Interests, which shall thereafter be owned
separately by each of the former owners.

General Partner may, from time to time, determine.

 

(b)           All deposits and other funds not
needed in the operation of the business of the Partnership may be invested by
the General Partner in investment grade instruments (or investment companies
whose portfolio consists primarily thereof), government obligations,
certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances and municipal notes and
bonds.  The funds of the Partnership

commingling as may necessarily result from an investment in those investment
companies permitted by this Section 10.02(b).

 

10.03      Fiscal and Taxable Year. 
The fiscal and taxable year of the Partnership shall be the calendar

10.05      Tax Matters Partner; Tax
Elections; Special Basis Adjustments.

 

(a)           The General Partner shall be the
Tax Matters Partner of the Partnership within the meaning of
Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code.  As
Tax Matters Partner, the General Partner shall have the right and obligation to
take all actions authorized and required, respectively, by the Code for the Tax
Matters Partner.  The General Partner
shall have the right to retain professional assistance in respect of any audit
of the Partnership by the Service and all out-of-pocket expenses and fees
incurred by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership as

 

49

 

Tax Matters Partner shall
constitute Partnership expenses.  In the
event the General Partner receives notice of a final Partnership adjustment
under Section 6223(a)(2) of the Code, the General Partner shall either
(i) file a court petition for judicial review of such final adjustment
within the period provided under Section 6226(a) of the Code, a copy of
which petition shall be mailed to all Limited Partners on the date such
petition is filed, or (ii) mail a written notice to all Limited Partners,
within such period, that describes the General Partner’s reasons for
determining not to file such a petition.

 

(b)           All elections required or
permitted to be made by the Partnership under the Code or any applicable state
or local tax law shall be made by the General Partner in its sole and absolute
discretion.

 

(c)           In the event of a transfer of
all or any part of the Partnership Interest of any Partner, the Partnership, at
the option of the General Partner, may elect pursuant to Section 754 of
the Code to adjust the basis of the Properties (if such election has not
already been made).  Notwithstanding anything
contained in Article V of this Agreement, any adjustments made pursuant to
Section 754 shall affect only the successor in interest to the
transferring Partner and in no event shall be taken into account in
establishing, maintaining or computing Capital Accounts for the other Partners
for any purpose under this Agreement. 
Each Partner will furnish the Partnership with all information necessary
to give effect to such election.

 

10.06      Reports to Limited Partners.

 

(a)           If the Company is required to
furnish an annual report to its shareholders containing financial statements of
the Company or the Partnership, the General Partner will, at the same time and
in the same manner, furnish such annual report to each Limited Partner.  The annual financial statements shall be
audited by accountants selected by the General Partner.

 

(b)           Any Partner shall further have
the right to a private audit of the books and records of the Partnership,
provided such audit is made for Partnership purposes, at the expense of the Partner
desiring it and is made during normal business hours.

EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT

BETWEEN

GARY M. HOLLOWAY, SR.

AND

GMH COMMUNITIES TRUST

 

This
Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated as of November 2, 2004 (“Effective
Date”), between GMH Communities Trust (the “Company”), and Gary M. Holloway, Sr.
(the “Executive”):

 

WHEREAS,
the Company wishes to employ the Executive in the capacities and on the terms
and conditions set out below, and the Executive has agreed to such employment,
in the capacities and on the terms and conditions set forth below.

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, the Company and the Executive, in consideration of the respective
covenants set out below, hereby agree as follows:

 

1.             EMPLOYMENT.

 

(a)           POSITIONS.    The
Executive shall be employed by the Company as its President, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer. The Executive may also serve as an officer of GMH
Communities, L.P. (the “Partnership”) and its general partner.

 

(b)           DUTIES.    The Executive’s
principal employment duties and responsibilities shall be those duties and
responsibilities customary for the positions of President, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company and such other executive duties and
responsibilities as the Company’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) shall from
time to time reasonably assign to the Executive. The Executive shall be
responsible for and have authority over the day-to-day operational management
of the Company and such responsibilities with respect to the Partnership as may
be agreed to by the parties from time to time. The Executive shall report directly
to the Board. All other officers of the Company shall report to the Executive
or such person(s) as the Executive may designate from time to time.

 

(i)    The
Executive shall have the right to nominate a certain number of non-independent
members of the Company’s Board of Trustees based upon his ownership percentage
of the Company’s Common Shares on a fully diluted basis assuming the conversion
of all outstanding Partnership units into Company Common Shares. If the
Executive owns at least 20% of the outstanding Company Common Shares, he shall
have the right to nominate three (3) Trustees, including himself. If the
Executive owns at least 10% but less than 20% of the outstanding Company Common
Shares, he shall have the right to nominate two (2) Trustees, including
himself. If the Executive owns less than 10% of the outstanding Company Common
Shares, he shall have the right to nominate himself as a Trustee. As provided
in Article III, Section 2 of the Company’s Bylaws, all nominations to
the Board of Trustees, including the nomination of the Executive and the
Executive’s nominees, must be submitted through and approved by the Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee and follow the nominating process
established by the committee for the nomination of Trustees and must satisfy
the standards for membership on the Board of Trustees approved by that
committee from time to time.

 

(c)           EXTENT OF
SERVICES.    Except for illnesses and vacation periods, the
Executive shall devote a substantial majority of his business time and
attention and his best efforts to the performance of his duties and
responsibilities under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Executive (i) shall be permitted to continue to own a position in, manage,
operate and devote time and attention to those properties and businesses he
owned, operated or controlled prior to the formation of the Company that were
not transferred to or purchased by the Company, all of which are listed on
Schedule A attached hereto, or any properties and businesses that were
transferred to the Company and that, subject to the approval of a majority of
the independent

 

 

members of the Board, the
Executive subsequently acquires (the “Excluded Businesses”), (ii) subject
to the Executive’s obligations set forth in Section 11, may make any
investment with respect to which he is not obligated or required to, and does
not in fact, devote efforts that would cause him to be unable to devote a
substantial majority of his business time and attention and his best efforts to
the performance of his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement,
(iii) may participate in charitable, academic or community activities, and
in trade or professional organizations, or (iv) may hold directorships in
other companies consistent with the Company’s conflict of interest policies and
corporate governance guidelines as in effect from time to time.

 

2.             TERM.    This Agreement
shall be effective as of the Effective Date and shall continue in full force
and effect thereafter for a period of three (3) years (the “Initial Term”),
and shall be automatically extended for as many as two additional one
(1) year periods (each, a “Successor Term”) at the close of the Initial
Term and each Successor Term, unless either party provides a written notice not
less than 60 days prior to the end of the Initial Term or relevant
Successor Term of such party’s intent not to renew, or the Agreement is sooner
terminated pursuant to Section 7. For purposes of this Agreement, “Term”
shall mean the actual duration of the Executive’s employment hereunder, taking
into account any extensions pursuant to this Section 2 or early
termination of employment pursuant to Section 7.

 

3.             BASE SALARY.    The
Company shall pay the Executive a base salary annually (the “Base Salary”),
which shall be payable in periodic installments according to the Company’s
normal payroll practices. The initial Base Salary shall be $350,000. The Board
or the Board Committee charged with responsibility for officer employment and
compensation matters of the Company (the “Compensation Committee”) shall review
the Base Salary at least once a year to determine whether the Base Salary
should be increased effective January 1 of any year during the Term;
provided, however, that on each January 1 during the Term, the Base Salary
shall be increased by a minimum positive amount equal to the Base Salary in
effect on January 1 (or, for the first year of the Initial Term, from the
Effective Date until December 31, 2004) of the prior year multiplied by the
percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index applicable to such year. The
amount of the increase shall be determined before March 31 of each year
and shall be retroactive to January 1. The Base Salary, including any
increases, shall not be decreased during the Term. For purposes of this
Agreement, the term “Base Salary” shall mean the amount established and
adjusted from time to time pursuant to this Section 3.

 

4.             INCENTIVE
AWARDS.    Provided that the Executive is employed by the
Company as of December 31, 2004, the Executive shall be entitled to a
fixed bonus with respect to the 2004 calendar year in the amount of $150,000,
subject to the review and concurrence of the Compensation Committee after the
end of the 2004 calendar year. Starting in 2005, the Executive shall be
entitled to receive an annual cash incentive bonus for each calendar year
during the Term of this Agreement consistent with a bonus policy adopted by the
Board or the Compensation Committee for each calendar year (which bonus policy
shall be adopted during the first 90 days of each calendar year)
containing individual performance goals for participants and corporate
performance goals set at Threshold, Target, Superior and Outperformance levels,
and allocating each participant’s annual cash incentive bonus on a percentage
basis between individual and corporate performance goals (the “Bonus Policy”).
The Board or the Compensation Committee shall meet during the first
90 days of each calendar year to determine the relevant goals for the
current calendar year and to reach determination regarding bonus entitlement
for the prior calendar year. For each calendar year, the annual incentive bonus
shall be determined under the Bonus Policy in effect for such calendar year
with reference to the Executive’s attainment of his individual performance
goals and the Company’s attainment of the overall corporate goals, as follows:

 

total annual incentive
bonus = individual performance bonus + corporate performance bonus

 

2

 

where:

 

individual performance bonus = individual performance level achieved
(Threshold, Target, Superior or Outperformance
percentage) × individual goals allocation percentage
(20%) × Base Salary

 

corporate performance bonus = corporate performance level achieved
(Threshold, Target, Superior or Outperformance
percentage) × corporate goals allocation percentage
(80%) × Base Salary

 

The
percentages established for the Executive for the performance bonus levels for
2005 shall be 40% for Threshold Level and 80% for Target Level, 120% for
Superior Level, and 200% for Outperformance Level. Except to the extent
otherwise provided in Section 8, no bonus shall be payable unless the
Executive was employed by the Company or a subsidiary as of the last day of the
relevant calendar year. After 2005 the percentages shall not be less than the
2005 percentages for each performance bonus level without the written
agreement of the Executive. For 2005 and thereafter, to the extent the
Executive’s annual incentive bonus exceeds either a performance bonus level of
100% or his then-current Base Salary, such excess bonus amount may, at the sole
discretion of the Company, be paid to the Executive one-half in cash and
one-half in Company Common Shares that shall vest ratably over a period of
three (3) years from the date of payment and shall be subject to dividend
payments, if any, by the Company. If Executive or the Company, as the case may
be, fails to satisfy the performance criteria contained in such Bonus Policy for
a calendar year, the Executive may be eligible to receive an incentive bonus
for such calendar year, in such amount as is recommended by the Compensation
Committee and subject to approval by the full Board (if such approval is
required). The annual incentive bonus shall be paid to the Executive no later
than thirty (30) days after the date on which final approval of the annual
incentive bonus payable to the Executive for such calendar year is obtained.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Annual Incentive Bonus” shall mean
the amount established pursuant to this Section 4.

 

5.             STOCK BASED AWARDS.

 

(a)           OPTION GRANTS.    The
Company may establish an equity incentive plan (“Equity Incentive Plan”). The
Executive’s eligibility for grants under the Equity Incentive Plan and the
terms and conditions of such grants shall be determined by the Compensation
Committee.

 

(b)           RESTRICTED SHARE
AWARDS.    The Executive shall be eligible to receive
restricted Common Shares of the Company (“Restricted Share Grants”) as approved
by the Compensation Committee, but only to the extent that restricted shares
are available for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan. The terms and
conditions of Restricted Share Grants shall be determined by the Compensation
Committee. Any Common Shares issued as Restricted Share Grants will have voting
and dividend rights, and, following the restriction period, shall be registered
and fully transferable by the Executive.

 

6.             BENEFITS.

 

(a)           VACATION.    The
Executive shall be entitled to an amount of vacation time consistent with
Company policy applicable to senior executives but at least six (6) weeks
of paid vacation per full calendar year, which shall accrue during the
Executive’s employment with the Company.

 

(b)           SICK AND PERSONAL
DAYS.    The Executive shall be entitled to sick and
personal days on an as needed basis.

 

(c)           EMPLOYEE BENEFITS.

 

(i)    PARTICIPATION
IN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS.    The Executive and his spouse
and eligible dependents, if any, and their respective designated beneficiaries
where

for and entitled to participate in all Company sponsored employee benefits
plan, as such plans may be amended or modified from time to time, including but
not limited to a 401(k) plan, group health, accident, disability insurance,
group life insurance and supplemental life insurance, as such benefits may be
offered from time to time, on a basis no less favorable than that applicable to
any other executive. Such benefits coverage shall be in the aggregate, not
materially less valuable to Executive than the benefits made available to the
Executive immediately prior to the Effective Date by his then employer.

 

(ii)   DEFERRED
COMPENSATION PLAN.    To the extent practicable under
applicable law and deemed appropriate by the Compensation Committee, the
Company shall provide to the Executive an opportunity to participate in a
Company sponsored deferred compensation plan.

 

(d)           OTHER BENEFITS.

 

(i)    ANNUAL
PHYSICAL.    The Company shall provide, at its cost, a
medical examination for the Executive on an annual basis by a licensed
physician in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area selected by the Executive. The
results of such examination are the sole property of such Executive and shall
be treated in confidence.

 

(ii)   CAR
ALLOWANCE.    The Company shall pay Executive a monthly car
allowance of $1,500 in advance of the month to which the payment relates.

 

(iii)  TAX

pay or promptly reimburse the Executive for costs incurred by him in connection
with tax preparation and financial planning assistance, to be furnished by such
advisors as chosen by the Executive, up to a maximum aggregate of $10,000

(iv)  DIRECTORS
AND OFFICERS INSURANCE.    During the Term and the
Severance Period, the Executive shall be entitled to director and officer

of such insurance coverage will be at the sole cost of the Company or the
Partnership.

 

(v)   DISABILITY
INSURANCE.    The Company shall maintain, at its cost,
supplemental renewable long-term disability insurance as agreed to by the
Company and the Executive.

 

7.             TERMINATION.    The
employment of the Executive by the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall
terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following:

 

(a)           DEATH OR PERMANENT
DISABILITY.    Immediately upon death or Permanent
Disability of the Executive. As used in this Agreement, “Permanent Disability”
shall mean an inability due to a physical or mental impairment to perform the
material services contemplated under this Agreement for a period of six
(6) months, whether or not consecutive, during any 365-day period. A
determination of Permanent Disability shall be made by a physician satisfactory
to both the Executive and the Company, provided that if the Executive and the
Company do not agree on a physician, the Executive and the Company shall each
select a physician and these two together shall select a third physician, whose
determination as to Permanent Disability shall be binding on all parties, with
the Company to bear all cost of securing such determination. The appointment of
one or more individuals to carry out the offices or duties of the Executive
during a period of the Executive’s inability to perform such duties and pending
a determination of Permanent Disability shall not be considered a breach of
this Agreement by the Company.

 

(b)           FOR CAUSE.    At the
election of the Company and subject to the provisions of this
Section 7(b), immediately upon written notice by the Company to the Executive
of his termination

 

4

 

for Cause. For purposes of
this Agreement, “Cause” for termination shall be deemed to exist solely in the
event of (i) the conviction of the Executive of, or the entry of a plea of
guilty or nolo contendere by the
Executive to, a felony (exclusive of any felony relating to negligent operation
of a motor vehicle and not including a conviction, plea of guilty or nolo contendere arising solely under a
statutory provision imposing criminal liability upon the Executive on a per se
basis due to the Company offices held by the Executive, so long as any act or
omission of the Executive with respect to such matter was not taken or omitted
in contravention of any applicable policy or directive of the Board),
(ii) a willful breach of his duty of loyalty which is materially
detrimental to the Company, or (iii) a willful failure to perform or
adhere to explicitly stated duties that are consistent with the terms of this
Agreement, or the Company’s reasonable and customary guidelines of employment
or reasonable and customary corporate governance guidelines or policies,
including without limitation any business code of ethics adopted by the Board,
or to follow the lawful directives of the Board (provided such directives are
consistent with the terms of this Agreement), which, in any such case,
continues for thirty (30) days after written notice from the Board to the
Executive. For purposes of this Section 7(b), no act, or failure to act,
on the Executive’s part will be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be
done, by the Executive not in good faith and without a reasonable belief that
the Executive’s act, or failure to act, was in the best interest of the
Company. The parties agree that in order to terminate the Executive pursuant to
Subsections (ii) and (iii) hereof, the Company shall first be
required to prove to the reasonable satisfaction of the Executive that he
engaged in improper conduct under these Subsections, and if the Executive shall
not agree with the Company’s assessment of his conduct, then the Executive
shall not be terminated until an arbitrator, as provided for in
Section 13(b), has determined that the Executive’s conduct constituted
improper conduct under the applicable Subsection.

 

(c)           WITHOUT CAUSE; WITHOUT GOOD
REASON.    At the election of the Company, without Cause,
and at the election of the Executive, without Good Reason, in either case upon
thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Executive or the Company, as
the case may be.

 

(d)           FOR GOOD REASON.    At
the election of the Executive, for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Good Reason” shall mean any of the following actions or omissions occurring
without the Executive’s written consent, provided the Executive notifies the
Company of his determination that Good Reason exists, with such notification to
occur within 60 days of the time at which the Executive knows or should
know of the action or omission on which such determination is based:

 

(i)    removal
from the Board (other than for Cause), or the failure to be nominated or
elected to the Board (other than for Cause),

 

(ii)   failure
by the Company to renew this Agreement on at least comparable terms at the
conclusion of the Initial Term or either Successor Term,

 

(iii)  a
material reduction of the Executive’s duties, responsibilities or reporting
requirements, or the assignment to the Executive of any duties,
responsibilities, or reporting requirements that are inconsistent with his
positions as President, Chief Executive Officer, and Chairman of the Board, as
the case may be,

 

(iv)  a
reduction by the Company in the Executive’s annual Base Salary,

 

(v)   a
material reduction or loss of employee benefits or material fringe benefits,
both in terms of the amount of the benefit and the level of the Executive’s
participation therein, enjoyed by the Executive under the employee benefit and
welfare plans of the Company, including without limitation such benefits as
group health, dental, 401(k), accident, disability insurance, or group life
insurance, that is caused by the Company except as is required by applicable
law,

 

5

 

(vi)  absent
the Executive’s prior written consent, the requirement by the Company that the
principal place of business at which the Executive performs his duties be
changed to a location that is outside of a 35 mile radius of Newtown Square,
Pennsylvania.

 

(vii) a
material breach by the Company of any provision of this Agreement that
continues for a period of thirty (30) days after Executive provides
written notice to the Company of such breach.

 

8.             EFFECTS OF TERMINATION.

 

(a)           BY THE COMPANY WITHOUT CAUSE; BY THE
EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON.    In the event of a termination
of the Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause (including for these
purposes non-renewal of this Agreement pursuant to Section 2 as
termination without Cause) or by the Executive for Good Reason, then the
Company shall pay the Executive as follows:

 

(i)   an
amount equal to three (3) times the Executive’s Base Salary and Annual
Incentive Bonus (determined at the Superior level for both corporation and
individual performance for the year in which the termination of employment
occurs) (the “Applicable Amount”), provided, however, that in the event of a
resignation by the Executive for Good Reason pursuant to
Section 7(d)(ii) after notice of non-renewal of this Agreement by the
Company with respect to the second Successor Term, the multiplier shall be
limited to one (1) times the Applicable Amount, and

 

(ii)   the
prorated amount of the Annual Incentive Bonus at the Superior Level for both
corporate and individual performance for the year in which the termination of
employment occurs, pro rated for the portion of such year during which the
Executive was employed prior to the effective date of his termination, and

 

(iii)  an
amount equal to accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination
plus any other compensation then due and owing from the Company.

 

(iv)  The
sum of the amounts payable under subsections (i), (ii) and
(iii) hereof is referred to herein as his “Severance Payment.”

 

(v)   The
Severance Payment shall be made in a single, lump sum cash payment no later
than ten (10) days after the effective date of the Executive’s termination
of employment.

 

(vi)  The
Company shall allow the Executive to continue to participate during the
three-year period commencing on the date of termination (the “Severance Period”)
in any healthcare, dental, vision and prescription drug plans in which the
Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to his termination, to
the same extent and upon the same terms as the Executive participated in such
plans prior to his termination, provided that the Executive’s continued participation
is permissible or otherwise practicable under the general terms and provisions
of such benefit plans and programs. During the Severance Period, the Company
shall pay for the Executive’s continued participation in said healthcare,
dental, vision and prescription drug plans, including but not limited to
premiums for such programs. To the extent that continued participation is
neither permissible nor practicable, the Company shall take such actions as may
be necessary to provide the Executive with substantially comparable benefits
(without additional cost to the Executive) outside the scope of such plans,
including, without limitation, reimbursing the Executive for his costs in
obtaining such coverage, such as COBRA premiums paid by the Executive and/or
his eligible dependents. If the Executive engages in regular employment after
his termination of employment (whether as an executive or as a self-employed
person), any employee benefit and welfare benefits received by the Executive in
consideration of such employment which are similar in nature to the healthcare,

 

6

 

dental, vision and
prescription drug plans provided by the Company will relieve the Company of its
obligation under this Section 8(a)(vi) to provide comparable benefits
to the extent of the benefits so received.

 

(vii) The
Executive’s stock options, if any, awarded under the Equity Incentive Plan (or
any other or successor plan) shall immediately become 100% vested and he shall
have at least a two-year period following the effective date of his termination
of employment in which to exercise his vested stock options, including those
stock options that vested upon his termination of employment.

 

(viii) The
Executive’s restricted Common Shares awarded under the Equity Incentive Plan
(or any other or successor plan) shall immediately become 100% vested and all
restrictions shall lapse.

 

(b)           TERMINATION ON DEATH OR PERMANENT
DISABILITY.    Upon a termination of employment due to the
Executive’s death or his becoming subject to Permanent Disability, the Company
shall pay the Executive (or his estate or beneficiary) an amount equal to one
(1) time the sum of the Executive’s Base Salary and Annual Incentive Bonus
(determined at the Superior level for both corporation and individual
performance for the year in which the termination of employment occurs),
payable within ten (10) business days of the occurrence of the relevant
event. The Executive shall become 100% vested in his stock options and restricted
Common Shares awarded under the Equity Incentive Plan. The Executive (or his
estate or beneficiary) shall have a one-year period following the occurrence of
the relevant event in which to exercise his vested stock options, including
those stock options that vested on such event. The Company shall pay to the
Executive (or to his estate or beneficiary) any Base Salary, Incentive Bonus,
expense reimbursements and all other compensation related payments that are
payable as of the date of occurrence of the relevant event and that are related
to his period of employment preceding such date. The Company shall pay to the
Executive (or to his estate or beneficiary) the prorated amount of Incentive
Bonus at the Target Level for both corporate and individual performance for the
year in which such event occurs, prorated for the portion of the year during
which the Executive was employed prior to the occurrence of the relevant event.

 

(c)           BY THE COMPANY FOR CAUSE OR BY THE EXECUTIVE
WITHOUT GOOD REASON.    In the event that the Executive’s
employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by the Executive without
Good Reason, the Company shall pay the Executive his accrued Base Salary and,
with respect to a termination by the Executive without Good Reason, any amount
of Annual Incentive Bonus fully earned and payable through the date of
termination and payable under the applicable Incentive Bonus policy, expense
reimbursements and all other compensation related payments that are payable as
of his termination of employment date and that are related to his period of
employment preceding his termination date. The Executive shall be entitled to
exercise his vested stock options, determined as of his termination date,
pursuant to the terms of the option grant. Unless the Company and the Executive
agree otherwise, the Executive shall forfeit all unvested options and any
unvested Restricted Share Grants not acquired by the Executive for
consideration, subject to Section 9(b) below, and the Company has the
right to repurchase any unvested Restricted Share Grants that the Executive
acquired for consideration in accordance with the terms of the Equity Incentive
Plan (with the result that if the Executive acquired such unvested Restricted
Share Grants for any consideration, the Executive shall at most be entitled to
a return of such consideration). The Executive shall also be entitled to all
benefits accrued and vested under any employee benefit plan of the Company.

 

(d)           TERMINATION OF
AUTHORITY.    Immediately upon the Executive terminating or
being terminated from his employment with the Company for any reason,
notwithstanding anything else appearing in this Agreement or otherwise, the
Executive will stop serving the functions of his

 

7

 

terminated or expired
positions, and shall be without any of the authority or responsibility for such
positions. On request of the Board, at any time following his termination of
employment for any reason, the Executive shall resign from the Board if then a
member. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, the Company
shall continue to indemnify the Executive and hold the Executive harmless to
the extent specified under the by-laws or other corporate documents of the
Company or the Partnership (as applicable) and permitted by applicable law.

 

9.             CHANGE OF CONTROL.

 

(a)           CHANGE OF CONTROL.    For
purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” will be deemed to have taken
place upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

 

(i)    the
acquisition by any person, entity or affiliated group, excluding the Company or
any employee benefit plan of the Company or any entity controlled directly or
indirectly by the Company, of more than 50% of the then outstanding voting
shares of the Company,

 

(ii)   the
consummation of any merger or consolidation of the Company into another
company, such that the holders of the voting shares of the Company immediately
prior to such merger or consolidation hold less than 50% of the voting power of
the securities of the surviving company or the parent of such surviving
company,

 

(iii)  the
complete liquidation of the Company or the sale or disposition of all or
substantially all of the Company’s assets, such that after the transaction, the
holders of the voting shares of the Company immediately prior to the
transaction hold less than 50% of the voting securities of the acquiror or the
parent of the acquiror, or

 

(iv)  trustees
of the Company are elected such that a majority of the members of the Board
shall have been members of the Board for less than two years, unless the
election or nomination for election of each new trustee who was not a trustee
at the beginning of such two-year period was approved by a vote of at least
two-thirds of the trustees then still in office who were trustees at the
beginning of such period, or

 

8

 

(v)   a
majority of the Board of the Company votes in favor of a decision that a Change
of Control has occurred.

 

(b)           CERTAIN BENEFITS UPON A CHANGE OF
CONTROL.    In the event of a termination of the Executive’s
employment by the Executive or by the Company (or its successor) for any reason
other than Cause following a Change of Control, the Executive shall become 100%
vested in all unvested stock options and restricted Common Shares awarded under
the Equity Incentive Plan (or any other or successor plan) and the Executive
shall have a two (2) year period following the termination of his
employment in which to exercise his vested stock options, including those stock
options that vested upon the Change of Control.

 

(c)           EXCISE TAX.

 

(i)    In
the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by the
Executive in connection with a change in control or a termination of the
Executive’s employment (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any
other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company, any person whose actions
result in a change in control or any person affiliated with the Company or such
person) (all such payments and benefits being hereinafter called “Total
Payments”), is in an amount such that the Executive will be subject (in whole
or in part) to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Excise Tax”) on such payments and benefits,
then the Company shall pay to the Executive an additional amount (the “Gross-Up
Payment”) such that the net amount retained by the Executive, after deduction
of the Excise Tax and any federal, state and local tax on the Gross-Up Payment,
will be equal to the Total Payments. For purposes of determining the amount of
the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes
at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation in the calendar year in
which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made and state and local income taxes at
the highest marginal rate of taxation in the state and locality of the
Executive’s residence on such date, net of the maximum deduction in federal
income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local
taxes.

 

(ii)   The
Executive or the Company may request, prior to the time any payments under this
Agreement are made, a determination of whether any or all of the Total Payments
will be subject to the Excise Tax and, if so, the amount of such Excise Tax and
the federal, state and local tax imposed on the Gross-Up Payment. If such a
determination is requested, it shall be made promptly, at the Company’s
expense, by tax counsel selected by the Executive and approved by the Company
(with such approval not being unreasonably withheld), and such determination
shall be conclusive and binding on both parties. The Company agrees to provide
any information reasonably requested by such tax counsel. Tax counsel may
engage accountants or other experts, at the Company’s expense, to the extent
deemed necessary or advisable for them to reach a determination. For these
purposes, the term “tax counsel” shall mean a law firm with expertise in
federal income tax matters.

 

(iii)  In
the event that the Excise Tax is subsequently determined to be less than the
amount taken into account hereunder, the Executive will repay to the Company,
at the time that the amount of such reduction in Excise Tax is finally
determined, the portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to such reduction
plus that portion of the Gross-Up Payment attributable to the Excise Tax and
federal, state and local income tax imposed on the Gross-Up Payment, without
any interest thereon. In the event that the Excise Tax is determined to exceed
the amount taken into account hereunder, the Company will make an additional
Gross-Up Payment in respect of such excess and in respect of any portion of the
Excise Tax with respect to which the Company had not previously made a Gross-Up
Payment (plus any interest, penalties or additions to tax payable

 

9

 

by the Executive with
respect to such excess and such portion) at the time that the amount of such
excess or such portion is finally determined, without any interest thereon.

 

(iv)  Each
party agrees to notify the other party, in writing, of any claim that, if
successful, would require the payment by the Company of a Gross-Up Payment or
might entitle the Company to a refund of all or part of any previous Gross-Up
Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later
than ten (10) business days after the Executive or Company is informed in
writing of such claim or otherwise becomes aware of such claim. If notice of
the claim arose as a result of a claim made against the Executive by a taxing
authority, Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the
thirty (30) day period following the date on which he gives notice to the
Company. If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the
expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive
shall: (A) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the
Company relating to such claim, (B) take such action in connection with
contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from
time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation
with respect to such claim by an attorney selected by the Executive and
approved by the Company (with such approval not being unreasonably withheld),
(C) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to effectively
contest such claim, and (D) permit the Company to reasonably participate
in any proceedings relating to such claim. The Company shall bear and pay directly
all costs and expenses (including legal fees and additional interest and
penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and
hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax
(including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of
such representation and payment of costs and expenses.

 

(v)   Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company shall control all audits and proceedings taken in
connection with any claim, audit or proceeding involving Excise Taxes or
Gross-Up Payments and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all
administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing
authority in respect of any such claim, audit or proceeding and may, at its sole
option, either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund
or contest the tax in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to
prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal,
in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the
Company shall determine; provided, however,
that if the Company directs the Executive to pay such tax and sue for a refund,
the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to the Executive, (including
interest or penalties with respect thereto) and shall indemnify and hold the
Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax
(including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to
such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such
advance. The Company shall be required to consult with and keep the Executive
fully apprised of developments and actions being considered or taken with
respect to such claim, audit or proceeding. The Company’s control of the
contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which such a Gross-Up
Payment would be payable or refundable hereunder and the Executive shall be
entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue. Each party
agrees to keep the other party fully apprised of developments concerning such
claim, audit or proceeding and to cooperate with the other in good faith in
order to effectively resolve such claim, audit or proceeding.

 

(vi)  For
purposes of this Subsection (c), a determination of whether a payment is
subject to Excise Tax, including but not limited to, a determination of change
in control, shall be made pursuant to Section 280G of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended.

 

10.           CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION.    The Executive recognizes and acknowledges
that certain assets of the Company constitute Confidential Information. The
term “Confidential

 

10

 

Information”
as used in this Agreement shall mean all information which is known only to the
Executive or the Company, other employees of the Company, or others in a
confidential relationship with the Company, and relating to the Company’s
business including, without limitation, information regarding clients,
customers, pricing policies, methods of operation, proprietary Company
programs, sales products, profits, costs, markets, key personnel, formulae,
product applications, technical processes, and trade secrets, as such
information may exist from time to time, which the Executive acquired or
obtained by virtue of work performed for the Company, or which the Executive
may acquire or may have acquired knowledge of during the performance of said
work. The Executive shall not, during the Term or for a two (2) year period
after the Term, disclose all or any part of the Confidential Information to any
person, firm, corporation, association, or any other entity for any reason or
purpose whatsoever, directly or indirectly, except as may be required by law or
pursuant to his employment hereunder, unless and until such Confidential
Information becomes publicly available other than as a consequence of the
breach by the Executive of his confidentiality obligations hereunder by law or
in any judicial or administrative proceeding (in which case, the Executive
shall provide the Company with notice). In the event of the termination of his
employment, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether by the Company or the
Executive, the Executive shall deliver to the Company all documents and data
pertaining to the Confidential Information and shall not take with him any
documents or data of any kind or any reproductions (in whole or in part) or
extracts of any items relating to the Confidential Information. The Company
acknowledges that prior to his employment with the Company, the Executive has
lawfully acquired extensive knowledge of the industries and businesses in which
the Company engages in business, and that the provisions of this
Section 10 are not intended to restrict the Executive’s use of such
previously acquired knowledge.

 

In
the event that the Executive receives a request or is required (by deposition,
interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or
similar process) to disclose all or any part of the Confidential Information,
the Executive agrees to (a) promptly notify the Company in writing of the
existence, terms and circumstances surrounding such request or requirement,
(b) consult with the Company on the advisability of taking legally available
steps to resist or narrow such request or requirement, and (c) assist the
Company in seeking a protective order or other appropriate remedy. In the event
that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained or that the Company
waives compliance with the provisions hereof, the Executive shall not be liable
for such disclosure unless disclosure to any such tribunal was caused by or
resulted from a previous disclosure by the Executive not permitted by this
Agreement.

 

11.           NON-COMPETITION AND
NONSOLICITATION.    During the Term and for a period of 18
calendar months after the termination of the Executive’s employment (the “Noncompete
Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, either as a
principal, agent, employee, employer, stockholder, partner, member, director,
trustee or in any other capacity whatsoever: (a) engage or assist others
engaged, in whole or in part, in any business which is engaged in a business or
enterprise that is substantially similar to any primary segment of the business
of the Company that the Company was engaged in during the period of the
Executive’s employment with the Company, or (b) without the prior consent
of the Board, employ or solicit the employment of, or assist others in
employing or soliciting the employment of, any individual employed by the
Company (other than the Executive’s personal assistant or Executive’s
secretary) at any time during the six (6) month period prior to any
termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company; provided, however, that the provisions of
this Section 11 shall not apply in the event the Company materially
breaches this Agreement.

 

Nothing
in this Section 11 shall impede, restrict or otherwise interfere with the
Executive’s management and operation of the Excluded Businesses. Further,
nothing in this Section 11 shall prohibit (a) Executive from making
any investment in a public company, or where he is the owner of five percent
(5%) or less of the issued and outstanding voting securities of any entity,
provided such

 

11

 

ownership
does not result in his being obligated or required to devote any substantial
amount of managerial efforts; or (b) Executive from being engaged in
activities permitted under Section 1(c).

 

The
Executive agrees that the restraints imposed upon him pursuant to this
Section 11 are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the
Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and that each and every one of the
restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length of time and
geographic area. The parties further agree that, in the event that any
provision of this Section 11 shall be determined by any court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended over too great
a time, too large a geographic area or too great a range of activities, such
provision shall be deemed to be modified to permit its enforcement to the
maximum extent permitted by law.

 

12.           INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY.    During the Term, the Executive shall promptly
disclose to the Company or any successor or assign, and grant to the Company
and its successors and assigns without any separate remuneration or
compensation other than that received by him in the course of his employment,
his entire right, title and interest in and to any and all inventions,
developments, discoveries, models, or any other intellectual property of any
type or nature whatsoever (“Intellectual Property”), whether developed by him
during or after business hours, or alone or in connection with others, that is
in any way related to the business of the Company, its successors or assigns.
This provision shall not apply to (a) any Intellectual Property developed
by the Executive prior to the Term; and (b) books or articles authored by the
Executive during non-work hours, consistent with his obligations under this
Agreement, so long as such books or articles (i) are not funded in whole
or in part by the Company, and (ii) do not contain any Confidential
Information or Intellectual Property of the Company. The Executive agrees, at
the Company’s expense, to take all steps necessary or proper to vest title to
all such Intellectual Property in the Company, and cooperate fully and assist
the Company in any litigation or other proceedings involving any such
Intellectual Property.

 

13.           DISPUTES.

 

(a)           EQUITABLE RELIEF.    The
Executive acknowledges and agrees that upon any breach by the Executive of his
obligations under Sections 10, 11, or 12 hereof, the Company will have no
adequate remedy at law, and accordingly will be entitled to specific
performance and other appropriate injunctive and equitable relief.

 

(b)           ARBITRATION.    Excluding
only requests for equitable relief by the Company under Section 13(a), in
the event that there is any claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the breach hereof, and the parties hereto shall not have resolved
such claim or dispute within 60 days after written notice from one party
to the other setting forth the nature of such claim or dispute, then such claim
or dispute shall be settled exclusively by binding arbitration in Montgomery
County, Pennsylvania, in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution
Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“Rules”), by an arbitrator
mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto or, in the absence of such
agreement, by an arbitrator selected according to such Rules. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if either the Company or the Executive shall request, such
arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3) arbitrators, one
selected by the Company, one selected by the Executive and the third selected
by agreement of the first two arbitrators, or, in the absence of such
agreement, in accordance with such Rules. Judgment upon the award rendered by
such arbitrator(s) shall be entered in any Court having jurisdiction thereof
upon the application of either party. The parties agree to use their reasonable
best efforts to have such arbitration completed as soon as is reasonably
practicable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as
provided in (c) below, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the arbitration.

 

(c)           LEGAL FEES.    The
Company shall pay or promptly reimburse the Executive for the reasonable legal
fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in successfully enforcing or
defending

 

12

 

any right of the Executive
pursuant to this Agreement even if the Executive does not prevail on each
issue.

 

14.           INDEMNIFICATION.    The
Company shall indemnify the Executive, to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, against all costs, charges and expenses incurred or sustained
by the Executive, including the cost of legal counsel selected and retained by
the Executive in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which the
Executive may be made a party by reason of the Executive being or having been
an officer, director, trustee, or employee of the Company or the Partnership.

 

15.           COOPERATION IN FUTURE MATTERS.    The
Executive hereby agrees that for a period of 18 months following his
termination of employment he shall cooperate with the Company’s reasonable
requests relating to matters that pertain to the Executive’s employment by the
Company, including, without limitation, providing information or limited
consultation as to such matters, participating in legal proceedings,
investigations or audits on behalf of the Company, or otherwise making himself
reasonably available to the Company for other related purposes. Any such
cooperation shall be performed at scheduled times taking into consideration the
Executive’s other commitments, and the Executive shall be compensated at a
reasonable hourly or per diem rate (based on the Executive’s Base Salary as of
his termination date). The Executive shall not be required to perform such
cooperation to the extent it conflicts with any requirements of exclusivity of
services for another employer or otherwise, nor in any manner that in the good
faith belief of the Executive would conflict with his rights under or ability
to enforce this Agreement.

 

16.           GENERAL.

 

(a)           NOTICES.    All notices

any respect under any law, the validity, legality and enforceability of the
remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired.

 

(c)           WAIVERS.    No delay or
omission by either party hereto in exercising any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall impair such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any further

13

 

(d)           COUNTERPARTS.    This
Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. In making proof of this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to
produce or account for more than one such counterpart.

 

(e)           ASSIGNS.    This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company’s
successors and the Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors,
administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. This Agreement
shall not be assignable by the Executive, it being understood and agreed that
this is a contract for the Executive’s personal services. This Agreement shall
not be assignable by the Company except that the Company shall assign it in
connection with a transaction involving the succession by a third party to all
or substantially all of the Company’s business and/or assets (whether direct or
indirect and whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, liquidation or
otherwise). When assigned to a successor, the assignee shall assume this
Agreement and expressly agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and
to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform it in the
absence of such an assignment. For all purposes under this Agreement, the term “Company”
shall include any successor to the Company’s business and/or assets that
executes and delivers the assumption agreement described in the immediately
preceding sentence or that becomes bound by this Agreement by operation of law.

 

(f)            ENTIRE AGREEMENT.    This
Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties, supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the
subject matter hereof and may not be amended except by a written instrument
hereafter signed by the Executive and a duly authorized representative of the
Board (other than the Executive).

 

(g)           GOVERNING LAW.    This
Agreement and the performance hereof shall be construed and governed in
accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without giving
effect to principles of conflicts of law.

 

(h)           CONSTRUCTION.    The
language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by
the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction
shall be applied against any party. The headings of sections of this Agreement
are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect its meaning or
construction. Whenever any word is used herein in one gender, it shall be
construed to include the other gender, and any word used in the singular shall
be construed to include the plural in any case in which it would apply and vice
versa.

 

(i)            PAYMENTS AND EXERCISE OF RIGHTS AFTER
DEATH.    Any amounts payable hereunder after the Executive’s
death shall be paid to the Executive’s designated beneficiary or beneficiaries,
whether received as a designated beneficiary or by will or the laws of descent
and distribution. The Executive may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries
for all purposes of this Agreement, and may change at any time such
designation, by notice to the Company making specific reference to this
Agreement. If no designated beneficiary survives the Executive or the Executive
fails to designate a beneficiary for purposes of this Agreement prior to his
death, all amounts thereafter due hereunder shall be paid, as and when payable,
to his spouse, if she survives the Executive, and otherwise to his estate.

 

(j)            CONSULTATION WITH
COUNSEL.    The Executive acknowledges that he has had a
full and complete opportunity to consult with counsel or other advisers of his
own choosing concerning the terms, enforceability and implications of this
Agreement, and that the Company has not made any representations or warranties
to the Executive concerning the terms, enforceability and implications of this
Agreement other than as are reflected in this Agreement. The Company will pay
the reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred in the drafting and negotiation
of this Agreement.

 

14

 

(k)           WITHHOLDING.    Any
payments provided for in this Agreement shall be paid net of any applicable
income tax withholding required under federal, state or local law.

 

(l)            CONSUMER PRICE
INDEX.    For purposes of this Agreement, the term “CPI”
refers to the Consumer Price Index as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
of the United States Department of Labor, U.S. City Average, All Items for
Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (1982-1984=100). If the CPI is
hereafter converted to a different standard reference base or otherwise
revised, the determination of the CPI adjustment shall be made with the use of
such conversion factor, formula or table for converting the CPI, as may be
published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, or, if the bureau shall no longer
publish the same, then with the use of such conversion factor, formula or table
as may be published by an agency of the United States, or failing such
publication, by a nationally recognized publisher of similar statistical
information.

 

(m)          SURVIVAL.    The
provisions of Sections 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.

 

IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto
have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the date first above
written.
