EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the annual reports on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2011 of Liberty Property Trust and Liberty Property Limited Partnership. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the "Trust”, mean Liberty Property Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries; and references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Liberty Property Limited Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries. The terms the "Company”, “we”, “our” or “us” means the Trust and the Operating Partnership, collectively.

The Trust is a self-administered and self-managed Maryland real estate investment trust (a "REIT"). Substantially all of the Trust's assets are owned directly or indirectly, and substantially all of the Trust's operations are conducted directly or indirectly, by its subsidiary, the Operating Partnership, a Pennsylvania limited partnership.

The Trust is the sole general partner and also a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, owning 96.8% of the common equity of the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2011 . The common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (the "Common Units"), other than those owned by the Trust, are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis (subject to anti-dilution protections) for the Trust's Common Shares of Beneficial Interest, $0.001 par value per share (the "Common Shares"). The Company has issued several series of Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership (the "Preferred Units"). The outstanding Preferred Units of each series are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis after stated dates into a corresponding series of Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares of the Trust except for the Series I-2 Preferred Units, which are not convertible or exchangeable into any other securities. The ownership of the holders of Common and Preferred Units is reflected on the Trust's financial statements as "noncontrolling interest - operating partnership" in mezzanine equity and as a component of total equity as "noncontrolling interest - operating partnership."

The financial results of the Operating Partnership are consolidated into the financial statements of the Trust. The Trust has no significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. The Trust and the Operating Partnership are managed and operated as one entity. The Trust and the Operating Partnership have the same managers.

The Trust's sole business purpose is to act as the general partner of the Operating Partnership. Net proceeds from equity issuances by the Trust are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units. The Trust itself does not issue any indebtedness, but guarantees certain of the unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership.

We believe combining the annual reports on Form 10-K of the Trust and the Operating Partnership into this single report results in the following benefits:
enhances investors' understanding of the Trust and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial portion of the Company's disclosure applies to both the Trust and the Operating Partnership; and
creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

To help investors understand the significant differences between the Trust and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following separate sections for each of the Trust and the Operating Partnership:
consolidated financial statements;
the following notes to the consolidated financial statements;
Income per Common Share of the Trust and Income per Common Unit of the Operating Partnership;
Other Comprehensive Income of the Trust and Other Comprehensive Income of the Operating Partnership; and
Shareholders' Equity of the Trust and Owners' Equity of the Operating Partnership

This report also includes separate Item 9A. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each of the Trust and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that both the Trust and Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 and Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

There are separate sections in this report for the Trust and the Operating Partnership where it is necessary to highlight the differences of the Trust and Operating Partnership. These sections specifically refer to the Trust or the Operating Partnership. In the sections that combine disclosure of the Trust and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company.

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. Certain information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and other materials filed or to be filed by the Company (as defined herein) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by the Company) contain statements that are or will be forward-looking, such as statements relating to rental operations, business and property development activities, joint venture relationships, acquisitions and dispositions (including related pro forma financial information), future capital expenditures, financing sources and availability, litigation and the effects of regulation (including environmental regulation) and competition. These forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates,” “should,” “seeks,” “intends,” “planned,” “outlook” and “goal” or similar expressions. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the Company can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. As forward-looking statements, these statements involve important risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expected results and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of the Company. The Company assumes no obligation to update or supplement forward looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, without limitation, uncertainties affecting real estate businesses generally (such as entry into new leases, renewals of leases and dependence on tenants' business operations), risks relating to our ability to maintain and increase property occupancy and rental rates, risks relating to the recent credit crisis and economic disruption, risks relating to construction and development activities, risks relating to acquisition and disposition activities, risks relating to the integration of the operations of entities that we have acquired or may acquire, risks relating to joint venture relationships and any possible need to perform under certain guarantees that we have issued or may issue in connection with such relationships, possible environmental liabilities, risks relating to leverage and debt service (including availability of financing terms acceptable to the Company and sensitivity of the Company's operations and financing arrangements to fluctuations in interest rates), dependence on the primary markets in which the Company's properties are located, the existence of complex regulations relating to status as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and the adverse consequences of the failure to qualify as a REIT, risks relating to litigation and the potential adverse impact of market interest rates on the market price for the Company's securities. See “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Forward-Looking Statements.”

PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
The Company
Liberty Property Trust (the "Trust") is a self-administered and self-managed Maryland real estate investment trust (a "REIT"). Substantially all of the Trust's assets are owned directly or indirectly, and substantially all of the Trust's operations are conducted directly or indirectly, by its subsidiary, Liberty Property Limited Partnership, a Pennsylvania limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership" and, together with the Trust and their consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company").
The Company completed its initial public offering in 1994 to continue and expand the commercial real estate business of Rouse & Associates, a Pennsylvania general partnership, and certain affiliated entities (collectively, the "Predecessor"), which was founded in 1972. As of December 31, 2011 , the Company owned and operated 332 industrial and 265 office properties (the "Wholly Owned Properties in Operation") totaling 65.2 million square feet. In addition, as of December 31, 2011 , the Company owned 10 properties under development, which when completed are expected to comprise 3.1 million square feet (the "Wholly Owned Properties under Development") and 1,456 acres of developable land, substantially all of which is zoned for commercial use. Additionally, as of December 31, 2011 , the Company had an ownership interest, through unconsolidated joint ventures, in 47 industrial and 49 office properties totaling 14.2 million square feet (the "JV Properties in Operation" and, together with the Wholly Owned Properties in Operation, the "Properties in Operation") and 615 acres of developable land, substantially all of which is zoned for commercial use. We refer to the Wholly Owned Properties under Development and the Properties in Operation collectively as the "Properties."
The Company provides leasing, property management, development and other tenant-related services for the Properties. The industrial Properties consist of a variety of warehouse, distribution, service, assembly, light manufacturing and research and development facilities. They include both single-tenant and multi-tenant facilities, with most designed flexibly to accommodate various types of tenants, space requirements and industrial uses. The Company's office Properties are multi-story and single-story office buildings located principally in suburban mixed-use developments or office parks. Substantially all of the Properties are located in prime business locations within established business communities. In addition, the Company, directly or through joint ventures, owns urban office properties in Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. The Company's strategy with respect to product and market selection is expected generally to favor industrial and metro-office properties and markets with strong demographic and economic fundamentals. To the extent deemed consistent with the Company's strategy and under appropriate circumstances, the Company intends to reduce its ownership of suburban office properties, as it has done recently.
The Trust is the sole general partner and also a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, owning 96.8% of the common equity of the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2011 . The common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (the "Common Units"), other than those owned by the Trust, are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis (subject to anti-dilution protections) for the Trust's common shares of beneficial interest, $0.001 par value per share (the "Common Shares"). As of December 31, 2011 , the Common Units held by the limited partners were exchangeable for 3.8 million Common Shares. The Company has issued several series of Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership (the "Preferred Units"). The outstanding Preferred Units of each series are exchangeable on a one-for-one basis after stated dates into a corresponding series of Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares of the Trust except for the Series I-2 Preferred Units, which are not convertible or exchangeable into any other securities. The ownership of the holders of Common and Preferred Units is reflected on the Trust's financial statements as "noncontrolling interest - operating partnership" in mezzanine equity and as a component of total equity as "noncontrolling interest - operating partnership."
In addition to this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company files with or furnishes to the SEC periodic and current reports, proxy statements and other information. The Company makes these documents available on its website, www.libertyproperty.com, free of charge, as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC. Any document the Company files with or furnishes to the SEC is available to read and copy at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, NE, Room 1580, Washington, D.C. 20549. Further information about the public reference facilities is available by calling the SEC at (800) SEC-0330. These documents also may be accessed on the SEC's website, http://www.sec.gov.
Also posted on the Company's website is the Company's Code of Conduct, which applies to all of its employees and also serves as a code of ethics for its chief executive officer, chief financial officer and persons performing similar functions. The Company will send the Code of Conduct, free of charge, to anyone who requests a copy in writing from its Investor Relations Department at the address set forth on the cover of this filing.

affiliated with the Company and the Predecessor for an average of 19.9  years. The Company and the Predecessor have developed and managed commercial real estate for the past 39  years.

Business Objective and Strategies for Growth
The Company's business objective is to maximize long-term profitability for its shareholders by being a leader in commercial real estate through the ownership, management, development and acquisition of superior industrial and office properties. The Company intends to achieve this objective through offering industrial and/or office properties in multiple markets and operating as a leading landlord in the industry. The Company believes that this objective will provide the benefits of enhanced investment opportunities, economies of scale, risk diversification both in terms of geographic market and real estate product type, access to capital and the ability to attract and retain personnel. The Company also strives to be a leading provider of customer service, providing an exceptional and positive tenant experience. The Company seeks to be an industry leader in sustainable development and to operate an energy-efficient portfolio. In pursuing its business objective, the Company seeks to achieve a combination of internal and external growth, maintain a conservative balance sheet and pursue a strategy of financial flexibility.
Products
The Company strives to be a high quality provider of five products (industrial properties, including big box warehouse, multi-tenant industrial, and industrial-flex; and office properties, including single-story office and multi-story office). The Company's strategy with respect to product and market selection is expected generally to favor industrial and metro-office properties and markets with strong demographic and economic fundamentals. However, consistent with the Company's strategy and market opportunities, the Company may pursue industrial and office products other than those noted above.
Markets
The Company operates primarily in the Mid-Atlantic, Southeastern, Midwestern and Southwestern United States. Additionally, the Company owns certain assets in the United Kingdom. The Company's goal is to operate in each of its markets with an appropriate product mix of industrial and office properties. In some markets it may offer only one of its product types. Generally, the Company seeks to have a presence in each market sufficient for the Company to compete effectively in that market. The Company's efforts emphasize efficiencies of scale through asset aggregation and controlled environments. The Company gathers information from internal sources and independent third parties and analyzes this information to support its evaluation of current and new markets and market conditions.
Organizational Plan
The Company seeks to maintain a management organization that facilitates efficient execution of the Company's strategy. As part of this effort, the Company pursues a human resources plan designed to create and maintain a highly effective real estate company through recruiting, training and retaining capable people. The structure is designed to support a local office entrepreneurial platform operating within a value-added corporate structure. The Company seeks to provide management and all employees with technology tools to enhance competitive advantage and more effectively execute on strategic and operational goals.
Internal Growth Strategies
The Company seeks to maximize the profitability of its Properties by endeavoring to maintain high occupancy levels while obtaining competitive rental rates, controlling costs and focusing on customer service efforts.

Table of Contents


Maintain High Occupancies
The Company believes that the quality and diversity of its tenant base and its strategy of operating in multiple markets is integral to achieving its goal of attaining high occupancy levels for its portfolio. The Company targets financially stable tenants in an effort to minimize uncertainty relating to the ability of the tenants to meet their lease obligations.
Cost Controls
The Company seeks to identify best practices to apply throughout the Company in order to enhance cost savings and other efficiencies. The Company also employs an annual capital improvement and preventative maintenance program designed to reduce the operating costs of the Properties in Operation and maintain the long-term value of the Properties in Operation.
Customer Service
The Company seeks to achieve high tenant retention through a comprehensive customer service program, which is designed to provide an exceptional and positive tenant experience. The customer service program establishes best practices and provides an appropriate customer feedback process. The Company believes that the program has been helpful in increasing tenant satisfaction.
Energy Efficiency Initiatives
The Company is committed to improving the energy efficiency of the existing buildings in its portfolio. The Company is pursuing a strategic initiative focused on improving the energy efficiency of the Properties in Operation. In connection with this initiative the Company has: (1) conducted level one energy audits on over 200 buildings; (2) benchmarked over 100 buildings with the Energy Star Portfolio Manager; (3) achieved Energy Star Certification for over 70 Properties in Operation; and (4) installed energy monitoring systems in over 100 buildings. These steps are estimated to have saved substantial energy costs during 2011 .
Additionally, the Company has been an active participant in the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design ("LEED") program. The LEED program, which was created to recognize environmental leadership in the building industry, establishes a national standard for developing high-performance, sustainable buildings. The Company has over 10 million square feet of LEED projects completed or under construction. The Company believes that green building techniques can result in positive environmental results and significant economic returns to tenants in terms of savings in operating costs and improved employee performance.
The Company's efforts in this area are ongoing. The Company intends to continue to explore methods of enhancing the performance of the buildings in its existing portfolio.
External Growth Strategies
The Company seeks to enhance its long-term profitability through the development, acquisition and disposition of properties either directly or through joint ventures. The Company also considers acquisitions of real estate operating companies.
Wholly Owned Properties
Development
The Company pursues attractive development opportunities, focusing primarily on high-quality industrial and office properties within its existing markets. When the Company's marketing efforts identify opportunities, the Company will consider pursuing opportunities outside of the Company's established markets. The Company and its Predecessor have developed over 63 million square feet of commercial real estate during the past 39  years. The Company's development activities generally fall into two categories: build-to-suit projects and projects built for inventory (projects that are less than 75% leased prior to commencement of construction). The Company develops build-to-suit projects for existing and new tenants. The Company also builds properties for inventory where the Company has identified sufficient demand at market rental rates to justify such construction.
During the year ended December 31, 2011 , the Company did not complete any development projects.

The "Total Investment" for a Property is defined as the Property's purchase price plus closing costs (in the case of acquisitions - if vacant) and management's estimate, as determined at the time of acquisition, of the cost of necessary building improvements in the case of acquisitions, or land costs and land and building improvement costs in the case of development projects, and, where appropriate, other development costs and carrying costs.
The Company believes that, because it is a fully integrated real estate firm, its base of commercially zoned land in existing industrial and office business parks provides a competitive advantage for future development activities. As of December 31, 2011 , the Company owned 1,456 acres of land held for development, substantially all of which is zoned for commercial use. Substantially all of the land is located adjacent to or within existing industrial or business parks with site improvements, such as public sewers, water and utilities, available for service. The Company estimates that its land holdings would support, as and when developed, approximately 14.6 million square feet of property. The Company's investment in land held for development as of December 31, 2011 was $219.4 million .
Through a development agreement with Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation, the Company has development rights for 35 acres of land located at the Navy Yard in Philadelphia. The Company estimates that these 35 acres would support, as and when developed, approximately 775,000 square feet of property.
Through a development agreement with Kent County Council, the Company develops commercial buildings at Kings Hill, a 650 -acre mixed use development site in the County of Kent, England. The Company also is the project manager for the installation of infrastructure on the site and receives a portion of the proceeds from the sale of land parcels to home builders. The site has planning consent for 2.0 million square feet of commercial space and 2,885 homes, of which approximately 825,000 square feet of commercial space and 2,472 homes have been completed as of December 31, 2011 .
Acquisitions/Dispositions
The Company seeks to acquire properties consistent with its business objectives and strategies. The Company executes its acquisition strategy by purchasing properties that the Company believes will create shareholder value over the long-term.
During the year ended December 31, 2011 , the Company acquired 21 properties comprising 4.2 million square feet for an aggregate purchase price of $249.5 million .
The Company disposes of properties and land held for development that no longer fit within the Company's strategic plan, or with respect to which the Company believes it can optimize cash proceeds. During the year ended December 31, 2011 , the Company sold 62 operating properties containing an aggregate of 4.2 million square feet, and 61 acres of land, for aggregate proceeds of $371.6 million .
Joint Venture Properties
The Company, from time to time, considers joint venture opportunities with institutional investors or other real estate companies. Joint venture partnerships provide the Company with additional sources of capital to share investment risk and fund capital requirements. In some instances, joint venture partnerships provide the Company with additional local market or product type expertise.
As of December 31, 2011 , the Company had investments in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures totaling $174.7 million (see Note 8 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements).

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The Company's results of operations and the ability to make distributions to our shareholders and service our indebtedness may be affected by the risk factors set forth below. (The Company refers to itself as "we," "us" or "our" in the following risk factors.) This section contains some forward looking statements. You should refer to the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on forward-looking stateme nts in Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Risks Related to Our Business
Weakness in the general economy continues to adversely affect our business and financial condition.
The Company's business is subject to the risks in this section. Current economic conditions have increased the probability the Company will experience these risks. Continuing weakness in the general economy has negatively impacted the Company's business practices by reducing demand for our properties. This lack of demand has reduced our ability to achieve increases in rents as the spaces are leased. Although some signs of economic recovery have been noted, the economy as it impacts our business has not returned to pre-recession levels.
The ongoing weakness in the general economy has affected some of our existing tenants, and could have an adverse impact on our ability to collect rent or renew leases with these tenants, resulting in a negative effect on our cash flow from operations.
The ongoing weakness in the general economy has had an adverse effect on many companies in numerous industries. We have tenants in these and other industries which may be experiencing these adverse effects. Should any of our tenants experience a downturn in its business that weakens its financial condition, delays lease commencement or causes it to fail to make rental payments when due, become insolvent or declare bankruptcy, the result could be a termination of the tenant's lease and material losses to us. Our cash flow from operations and our ability to make expected distributions to our shareholders and service our indebtedness could, in such a case, be adversely affected.
Unfavorable events affecting our existing tenants, or negative market conditions that may affect our existing tenants, could have an adverse impact on our ability to attract new tenants, relet space, collect rent or renew leases, and thus could have a negative effect on our cash flow from operations.
Our cash flow from operations depends on our ability to lease space to tenants on economically favorable terms. Therefore, we could be adversely affected by various facts and events over which we have limited control, such as:
lack of demand for space in the areas where our Properties are located
inability to retain existing tenants and attract new tenants
oversupply of or reduced demand for space and changes in market rental rates

Table of Contents

defaults by our tenants or their failure to pay rent on a timely basis
the need to periodically renovate and repair our space
physical damage to our Properties
economic or physical decline of the areas where our Properties are located
potential risk of functional obsolescence of our Properties over time
If a tenant is unable to pay rent due to us, we may be forced to evict such tenants, or engage in other remedies, which may be expensive and time consuming and may adversely affect our net income, shareholders' equity and cash distributions to shareholders.
At any time, any of our tenants may experience a downturn in its business that may weaken its financial condition. As a result, a tenant may delay lease commencement, fail to make rental payments when due, decline to extend a lease upon its expiration, become insolvent or declare bankruptcy. Any tenant bankruptcy or insolvency, leasing delay or failure to make rental payments when due could result in the termination of the tenant's lease and material losses to our Company.
If our tenants do not renew their leases as they expire, we may not be able to rent the space. Furthermore, leases that are renewed, and some new leases for space that is relet, may have terms that are less economically favorable to us than current lease terms, or may require us to incur significant costs, such as for renovations, tenant improvements or lease transaction costs.
Any of these events could adversely affect our cash flow from operations and our ability to make expected distributions to our shareholders and service our indebtedness.
A significant portion of our costs, such as real estate taxes, insurance costs, and debt service payments, generally are not reduced when circumstances cause a decrease in cash flow from our Properties.
We may not be able to compete successfully with other entities that operate in our industry.
We experience a great deal of competition in attracting tenants for our Properties and in locating land to develop and properties to acquire.
In our effort to lease our Properties, we compete for tenants with a broad spectrum of other landlords in each of our markets. These competitors include, among others, publicly-held REITs, privately-held entities, individual property owners and tenants who wish to sublease their space. Some of these competitors may be able to offer prospective tenants more attractive financial or other terms than we are able to offer.
We may experience increased operating costs, which could adversely affect our operations.
Our Properties are subject to increases in operating expenses such as insurance, cleaning, electricity, heating, ventilation and air conditioning, general and administrative costs and other costs associated with security, landscaping, repairs and maintenance. While our current tenants generally are obligated to pay a significant portion of these costs, there is no assurance that these tenants will make such payments or agree to pay these costs upon renewal or that new tenants will agree to pay these costs. If operating expenses increase in our markets, we may not be able to increase rents or reimbursements in all of these markets so as to meet increased expenses without simultaneously decreasing occupancy rates. If this occurs, our ability to make distributions to shareholders and service our indebtedness could be adversely affected.
Our ability to achieve growth in operating income depends in part on our ability to develop properties, which may suffer under certain circumstances.
We intend to continue to develop properties when warranted by market conditions. Current market conditions for development, although showing signs of recovery, have not normalized and consequently we expect growth in operating income from development to be below pre-recession levels.
Additionally, our general construction and development activities include the risks that:
construction and leasing of a property may not be completed on schedule, which could result in increased expenses and construction costs, and would result in reduced profitability
construction costs may exceed our original estimates due to increases in interest rates and increased materials, labor or other costs, possibly making the property unprofitable because we may not be able to increase rents to compensate for the increase in construction costs
some developments may fail to achieve expectations, possibly making them unprofitable
we may be unable to obtain, or may face delays in obtaining, required zoning, land-use, building, occupancy, and other governmental permits and authorizations, which could result in increased costs and could require us to abandon our

10

Table of Contents

activities entirely with respect to a project
we may abandon development opportunities after we begin to explore them and as a result, we may fail to recover costs already incurred. If we alter or discontinue our development efforts, past and future costs of the investment may need to be expensed rather than capitalized and we may determine the investment is impaired, resulting in a loss
we may expend funds on and devote management's time to projects that we do not complete
occupancy rates and rents at newly completed properties may fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including market and economic conditions, and may result in lower than projected rental rates with the result that our investment is not profitable
We face risks associated with property acquisitions.
We acquire individual properties and portfolios of properties, in some cases through the acquisition of operating entities, and intend to continue to do so when circumstances warrant.
Our acquisition activities and their success are subject to the following risks:
when we are able to locate a desirable property, competition from other real estate investors may significantly increase the purchase price
acquired properties may fail to perform as expected
the actual costs of repositioning or redeveloping acquired properties may be higher than our estimates
acquired properties may be located in new markets where we face risks associated with an incomplete knowledge or understanding of the local market, a limited number of established business relationships in the area and a relative unfamiliarity with local governmental and permitting procedures
we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties and operating entities, into our existing operations, and as a result, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected
We may acquire properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a liability were asserted against us based upon ownership of those properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could adversely affect our cash flow.
Many of our Properties are concentrated in our primary markets, and we therefore may suffer economic harm as a result of adverse conditions in those markets.
Our Properties are located principally in specific geographic areas. Due to the concentration of our Properties in these areas, performance is dependent on economic conditions in these areas. These areas have experienced periods of economic decline.
We may not be able to access financial markets to obtain capital on a timely basis, or on acceptable terms.
In addition to the capital market constraints previously noted, our ability to access the public debt and equity markets depends on a variety of factors, including:
general economic conditions affecting these markets
our own financial structure and performance
the market's opinion of REITs in general
the market's opinion of REITs that own properties similar to ours
We may suffer adverse effects as a result of the terms of and covenants relating to our indebtedness.
Required payments on our indebtedness generally are not reduced if the economic performance of our portfolio of Properties declines. If the economic performance of our Properties declines, net income, cash flow from operations and cash available for distribution to shareholders will be reduced. If payments on debt cannot be made, we could sustain a loss, or in the case of mortgages, suffer foreclosures by mortgagees or suffer judgments. Further, some obligations, including our $500 million credit facility and $1.8 billion in unsecured notes issued in past public offerings, contain cross-default and/or cross-acceleration provisions, as does $7.1 million in outstanding mortgage indebtedness at December 31, 2011 , which means that a default on one obligation may constitute a default on other obligations.
Our credit facility and unsecured debt securities contain customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness, including total debt to asset ratios, secured debt to total asset ratios, debt service coverage ratios and minimum ratios of unencumbered assets to unsecured debt which we must maintain. Our continued ability to borrow under our $500 million credit facility is subject to compliance with our financial and other covenants. In addition, our failure to comply with such covenants

11

Table of Contents

could cause a default under this credit facility, and we may then be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources. Under those circumstances, other sources of capital may not be available to us, or be available only on unattractive terms.
Our degree of leverage could limit our ability to obtain additional financing.
Our degree of leverage could affect our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, development or other general corporate purposes. Our senior unsecured debt is currently rated investment grade by the three major rating agencies. However, there can be no assurance we will be able to maintain this rating, and in the event our senior debt is downgraded from its current rating, we would likely incur higher borrowing costs. Our degree of leverage could also make us more vulnerable to a downturn in business or the economy generally.
Further issuances of equity securities may be dilutive to our existing shareholders.
The interests of our existing shareholders could be diluted if we issue additional equity securities to finance future developments, acquisitions, or repay indebtedness. Our Board of Trustees can authorize the issuance of additional securities without shareholder approval. Our ability to execute our business strategy depends on our access to an appropriate blend of debt financing, including unsecured lines of credit and other forms of secured and unsecured debt, and equity financing, including issuances of common and preferred equity.
An increase in interest rates would increase our interest costs on variable rate debt and could adversely impact our ability to refinance existing debt.
We currently have, and may incur more, indebtedness that bears interest at variable rates. Accordingly, if interest rates increase, so will our interest costs, which would adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to pay principal and interest on our debt and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders. Further, rising interest rates could limit our ability to refinance existing debt when it matures.
Property ownership through joint ventures will limit our ability to act exclusively in our interests and may require us to depend on the financial performance of our co-venturers.
From time to time we invest in joint ventures in which we do not hold a controlling interest. These investments involve risks that do not exist with properties in which we own a controlling interest, including the possibility that our partners may, at any time, have business, economic or other objectives that are inconsistent with our objectives. In instances where we lack a controlling interest, our partners may be in a position to require action that is contrary to our objectives. While we seek to negotiate the terms of these joint ventures in a way that secures our ability to act in our best interests, there can be no assurance that those terms will be sufficient to fully protect us against actions contrary to our interests. If the objectives of our co-ventures are inconsistent with ours, we may not in every case be able to act exclusively in our interests.
Additionally, our joint venture partners may experience financial difficulties or change their investment philosophies. This may impair their ability to meet their obligations to the joint venture, such as with respect to providing additional capital, if required. If such a circumstance presented itself we may be required to perform on their behalf, if possible, or suffer a loss of all or a portion of our investment in the joint venture.
Risks Related to the Real Estate Industry
Real estate investments are illiquid, and we may not be able to sell our Properties if and when we determine it is appropriate to do so.
Real estate generally cannot be sold quickly. We may not be able to dispose of our Properties promptly in response to economic or other conditions. In addition, provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), limit a REIT's ability to sell properties in some situations when it may be economically advantageous to do so, thereby adversely affecting returns to shareholders and adversely impacting our ability to meet our obligations to the holders of other securities.
We may experience economic harm if any damage to our Properties is not covered by insurance.
We believe all of our Properties are adequately insured with carriers that are adequately capitalized. However, we cannot guarantee that the limits of our current policies will be sufficient in the event of a catastrophe to our Properties or that carriers will be able to honor their obligations. Our existing property and liability policies expire during 2012 . We cannot guarantee that we will be able to renew or duplicate our current coverages in adequate amounts or at reasonable prices.
We may suffer losses that are not covered under our comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage and rental loss insurance

12

Table of Contents

policies. For example, we may not be insured for losses resulting from acts of war, certain acts of terrorism, or from environmental liabilities. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits should occur, we would nevertheless remain liable for the loss which could adversely affect cash flow from operations.
Potential liability for environmental contamination could result in substantial costs.
Under federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, we may be required to investigate and clean up the effects of releases of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products at our Properties simply because of our current or past ownership or operation of the real estate. If unidentified environmental problems arise, we may have to make substantial payments which could adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders because:
as owner or operator, we may have to pay for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred in connection with the contamination
the law typically imposes clean-up responsibility and liability regardless of whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the contamination
even if more than one person may be responsible for the contamination, each person who shares legal liability under the environmental laws may be held responsible for all of the clean-up costs
governmental entities and third parties may sue the owner or operator of a contaminated site for damages and costs
These costs could be substantial. The presence of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products or the failure to properly remediate contamination may materially and adversely affect our ability to borrow against, sell or rent an affected property. In addition, applicable environmental laws create liens on contaminated sites in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with a contamination. Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing at our Properties may result in significant unanticipated expenditures.
It is our policy to retain independent environmental consultants to conduct Phase I environmental site assessments and asbestos surveys with respect to our acquisition of properties. These assessments generally include a visual inspection of the properties and the surrounding areas, an examination of current and historical uses of the properties and the surrounding areas and a review of relevant state, federal and historical documents, but do not involve invasive techniques such as soil and ground water sampling. Where appropriate, on a property-by-property basis, our practice is to have these consultants conduct additional testing, including sampling for asbestos, for lead in drinking water, for soil contamination where underground storage tanks are or were located or where other past site usages create a potential environmental problem, and for contamination in groundwater. Even though these environmental assessments are conducted, there is still the risk that:
the environmental assessments and updates will not identify all potential environmental liabilities
a prior owner created a material environmental condition that is not known to us or the independent consultants preparing the assessments
new environmental liabilities have developed since the environmental assessments were conducted
future uses or conditions such as changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations could result in environmental liability for us
While we test indoor air quality on a regular basis and have an ongoing maintenance program in place to address this aspect of property operations, inquiries about indoor air quality may necessitate special investigation and, depending on the results, remediation. Indoor air quality issues can stem from inadequate ventilation, chemical contaminants from indoor or outdoor sources, pollen, viruses and bacteria. Indoor exposure to chemical or biological contaminants above certain levels can be alleged to be connected to allergic reactions or other health effects and symptoms in susceptible individuals. If these conditions were to occur at one of our Properties, we may need to undertake a targeted remediation program, including without limitation, steps to increase indoor ventilation rates and eliminate sources of contaminants. Such remediation programs could be costly, necessitate the temporary relocation of some or all of the Property's tenants or require rehabilitation of the affected Property.
Our Properties may contain or develop harmful mold, which could lead to liability for adverse health effects and costs of remediating the problem.
When excessive moisture accumulates in buildings or on building materials, mold growth may occur, particularly if the moisture problem remains undiscovered or is not addressed over a period of time. Some molds may produce airborne toxins or irritants. Concern about indoor exposure to mold has been increasing as exposure to mold may cause a variety of adverse health effects and symptoms, including allergic or other reactions. As a result, the presence of significant mold at any of our Properties could require us to undertake a costly remediation program to contain or remove the mold from the affected Property. In addition, the presence of significant mold could expose us to liability from our tenants, employees of our tenants and others if property damage or health concerns arise.

Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and fire, safety and other regulations may require us to make expenditures that adversely impact our operating results.
All of our Properties are required to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"). The ADA generally requires that buildings be made accessible to people with disabilities. Compliance with the ADA requirements could require removal of access barriers, and non-compliance could result in imposition of fines by the United States government or an award of damages to private litigants, or both. Expenditures related to complying with the provisions of the ADA could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition and our ability to make distributions to shareholders. In addition, we are required to operate our Properties in compliance with fire and safety regulations, building codes and other land use regulations, as they may be adopted by governmental agencies and bodies and become applicable to our Properties. We may be required to make substantial capital expenditures to comply with those requirements and these expenditures could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition, as well as our ability to make distributions to shareholders.
Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may adversely impact our operating results and may affect markets on which our securities are traded.
Terrorist attacks against our Properties, or against the United States or United States interests generally, may negatively affect our operations and investments in our securities. Attacks or armed conflicts could have a direct adverse impact on our Properties or operations through damage, destruction, loss or increased security costs. Any terrorism insurance that we obtain may be insufficient to cover the loss for damages to our Properties as a result of terrorist attacks.
Furthermore, any terrorist attacks or armed conflicts could result in increased volatility in or damage to the United States and worldwide financial markets and economy. Adverse economic conditions could affect the ability of our tenants to pay rent, which could have an adverse impact on our operating results.
Risks Related to Our Organization and Structure
We have elected REIT status under the federal tax laws and could suffer adverse consequences if we fail to qualify as a REIT.
We have elected REIT status under federal tax laws and have taken the steps known to us to perfect that status, but we cannot be certain that we qualify or that we will remain qualified. Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Code, as to which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. The complexity of these provisions and of the related income tax regulations is greater in the case of a REIT that holds its assets in partnership form, as we do. Moreover, no assurance can be given that new tax laws will not significantly affect our qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. New laws could be applied retroactively, which means that past operations could be found to be in violation, which would have a negative effect on the business.
If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the distributions to shareholders would not be deductible when computing taxable income. If this happened, we would be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. Also, we could be prevented from qualifying as a REIT for the four years following the year in which we were disqualified. Further, if we requalified as a REIT after failing to qualify, we might have to pay the full corporate-level tax on any unrealized gain in our assets during the period we were not qualified as a REIT. We would then have to distribute to our shareholders the earnings we accumulated while we were not qualified as a REIT. These additional taxes would reduce our funds available for distribution to our shareholders. In addition, while we were disqualified as a REIT, we would not be required by the Code to make distributions to our shareholders. A failure by the Company to qualify as a REIT and the resulting requirement to pay taxes and interest (and perhaps penalties) would cause us to default under various agreements to which we are a party, including under our credit facility, and would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations, earnings, financial condition and our ability to make distributions to shareholders.
Future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may lead our Board of Trustees to authorize the revocation of our election to qualify as a REIT. A revocation of our REIT status would require the consent of the holders of a majority of the voting interests of all of our outstanding Common Shares.
Risks associated with potential borrowings necessary to make distributions to qualify as a REIT; distributions can be made in Common Shares.
We intend to make distributions to shareholders to comply with the distribution provisions of the Code necessary to maintain qualification as a REIT and to avoid income taxes and the non-deductible excise tax. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to borrow funds to meet the distribution requirements necessary to achieve the tax benefits associated with qualifying as a REIT. In such circumstances, we might need to borrow funds to avoid adverse tax consequences, even if our management believes

14

Table of Contents

that the prevailing market conditions are not generally favorable for such borrowings or that such borrowings would not be advisable in the absence of such tax considerations.
Certain officers of the Trust may not have the same interests as shareholders as to certain tax laws.
Certain officers of the Trust own Common Units. These units may be exchanged for our Common Shares. The officers who own those units and have not yet exchanged them for our Common Shares may suffer different and more adverse tax consequences than holders of our Common Shares suffer in certain situations:
when certain of our Properties are sold
when debt on those Properties is refinanced
if we are involved in a tender offer or merger
Because these officers own units and face different consequences than shareholders do, the Trust and those officers may have different objectives as to these transactions than shareholders do.
Certain aspects of our organization could have the effect of restricting or preventing a change of control of our Company, which could have an adverse effect on the price of our shares.
Our charter contains an ownership limit on shares. To qualify as a REIT, five or fewer individuals cannot own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% in value of the outstanding shares of beneficial interest. To this end, our Declaration of Trust, among other things, generally prohibits any holder of the Trust's shares from owning more than 5% of the Trust's outstanding shares of beneficial interest, unless that holder gets the consent from our Board of Trustees. This limitation could prevent the acquisition of control of the Company by a third party without the consent from our Board of Trustees.
We can issue preferred shares . Our Declaration of Trust authorizes our Board of Trustees to establish the preferences and rights of any shares issued. The issuance of preferred shares could have the effect of delaying, making more difficult or preventing a change of control of the Company, even if a change in control were in the shareholder's interest.
There are limitations on acquisition of and changes in control pursuant to, and fiduciary protections of The Board under Maryland law . The Maryland General Corporation Law ("MGCL") contains provisions which are applicable to the Trust as if the Trust were a corporation. Among these provisions is a section, referred to as the "control share acquisition statute," which eliminates the voting rights of shares acquired in quantities so as to constitute "control shares," as defined under the MGCL. The MGCL also contains provisions applicable to us that are referred to as the "business combination statute," which would generally limit business combinations between the Company and any 10% owners of the Trust's shares or any affiliate thereof. Further, Maryland law provides broad discretion to the Board with respect to its fiduciary duties in considering a change in control of our Company, including that the Board is subject to no greater level of scrutiny in considering a change in control transaction than with respect to any other act by the Board. Finally, the "unsolicited takeovers" provisions of the MGCL permit the Board, without shareholder approval and regardless of what is currently provided in our Declaration of Trust or By-Laws, to implement takeover defenses that our Company does not yet have, including permitting only the Board to fix the size of the Board and permitting only the Board to fill a vacancy on the Board. All of these provisions may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making an acquisition proposal for our Company or of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company under circumstances that otherwise could provide the holders of Common Shares with the opportunity to realize a premium over the then current market price.
Various factors out of our control could hurt the market value of our publicly traded securities.
The value of our publicly traded securities depends on various market conditions, which may change from time to time. In addition to general economic and market conditions and our particular financial condition and performance, the value of our publicly traded securities could be affected by, among other things, the extent of institutional investor interest in us and the market's opinion of REITs in general and, in particular, REITs that own and operate properties similar to ours.
The market value of the equity securities of a REIT may be based primarily upon the market's perception of the REIT's growth potential and its current and future cash distributions, and may be secondarily based upon factors such as the real estate market value of the underlying assets. The failure to meet the market's expectations with regard to future earnings and cash distributions likely would adversely affect the market price of publicly traded securities. Our payment of future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Trustees and will depend on numerous factors including our cash flow, financial condition and capital requirements, annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, the general economic environment and such other factors as our Board of Trustees deems relevant, and we cannot assure you that our annual dividend rate will be maintained at its current level. We are currently distributing more in dividends than we receive in net cash provided by operating activities less customary

tenant improvement and leasing transaction costs. Over time, increases in occupancy and rental rates could offset this shortfall. Should market opportunities allow us to accelerate our strategy relating to dispositions (i.e. sale of suburban office) without corresponding opportunities to reinvest those proceeds in the near term, this shortfall would increase. We will continually evaluate these circumstances opposite our distribution policies.
Rising market interest rates could make an investment in publicly traded securities less attractive. If market interest rates increase, purchasers of publicly traded securities may demand a higher annual yield on the price they pay for their securities. This could adversely affect the market price of publicly traded securities.
We no longer have a shareholder rights plan but are not precluded from adopting one.
Our shareholder rights plan expired in accordance with its terms on December 31, 2007. While we did not extend or renew the plan, we are not prohibited from adopting, without shareholder approval, a shareholder rights plan that may discourage any potential acquirer from acquiring more than a specific percentage of our outstanding Common Shares since, upon this type of acquisition without approval of our Board of Trustees, all other common shareholders would have the right to purchase a specified amount of Common Shares at a substantial discount from market price.
Transactions by the Trust or the Operating Partnership could adversely affect debt holders.
Except with respect to several covenants limiting the incurrence of indebtedness and a covenant requiring the Operating Partnership to maintain a certain unencumbered total asset value, our indentures do not contain any additional provisions that would protect holders of the Operating Partnership's debt securities in the event of (i) a highly leveraged transaction involving the Operating Partnership, (ii) a change of control or (iii) certain reorganizations, restructurings, mergers or similar transactions involving the Operating Partnership or the Trust.

As of February 21, 2012 , the Common Shares were held by 1,033 holders of record. Since its initial public offering in 1994, the Company has paid regular and uninterrupted quarterly dividends.
Although the Company currently anticipates that dividends at $0.475 per Common Share per quarter or a comparable rate will continue to be paid in the future, the payment of future dividends by the Company will be at the discretion of the Board of Trustees and will depend on numerous factors including the Company's cash flow, its financial condition, capital requirements, annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, the general economic environment and such other factors as the Board of Trustees deems relevant.
The following line graph compares the cumulative total shareholder return on Common Shares for the period beginning December 31, 2006 and ended December 31, 2011 with the cumulative total return on the Standard and Poor's 500 Stock Index ("S&P 500") and the NAREIT Equity REIT Total Return Index ("NAREIT Index") over the same period. Total return values for the S&P 500, the NAREIT Index and the Company's Common Shares were calculated based on cumulative total return assuming the investment of $100 in the NAREIT Index, the S&P 500 and the Company's Common Shares on December 31, 2006 , and assuming reinvestment of dividends in all cases.

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") has issued a standard definition for Funds from operations (as defined below). The Securities and Exchange Commission has agreed to the disclosure of this non-GAAP financial measure on a per share basis in its Release No. 34-47226, Conditions for Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The Company believes that the calculation of Funds from operations is helpful to investors and management as it is a measure of the Company's operating performance that excludes depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions. As a result, year over year comparison of Funds from operations reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. In addition, management believes that Funds from operations provides useful information to the investment community about the Company's financial performance when compared to other REITs since Funds from operations is generally recognized as the standard for reporting the operating performance of a REIT. Funds from operations available to common shareholders is defined by NAREIT as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Funds from operations available to common shareholders does not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP and does not necessarily indicate that cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. It should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Funds from operations available to common shareholders also does not represent cash flows generated from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP. Historically the Company included impairment charges in this computation. However, excluding impairment charges from the computation of Funds from operations is consistent with NAREIT's reaffirmation in November of 2011 of its July, 2000 guidance on NAREIT-defined Funds from Operations, which indicated that impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate should be excluded in the computation of Funds from operations. Accordingly, Funds from operations have been restated for prior periods. A reconciliation of Funds from operations to net income may be found in Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations .

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Liberty Property Trust (the “Trust”) is a self-administered and self-managed Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Substantially all of the Trust’s assets are owned directly or indirectly, and substantially all of the Trust’s operations are conducted directly or indirectly, by its subsidiary, Liberty Property Limited Partnership, a Pennsylvania limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership” and, collectively with the Trust and their consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”).
The Company operates primarily in the Mid-Atlantic, Southeastern, Midwestern and Southwestern United States. Additionally, the Company owns certain assets in the United Kingdom.
As of December 31, 2011 , the Company owned and operated 332 industrial and 265 office properties (the “Wholly Owned Properties in Operation”) totaling 65.2 million square feet. In addition, as of December 31, 2011 , the Company owned 10 properties under development, which when completed are expected to comprise 3.1 million square feet (the “Wholly Owned Properties under Development”) and 1,456 acres of developable land, substantially all of which is zoned for commercial use. Additionally, as of December 31, 2011 , the Company had an ownership interest, through unconsolidated joint ventures, in 47 industrial and 49 office properties totaling 14.2 million square feet (the “JV Properties in Operation” and, together with the Wholly Owned Properties in Operation, the “Properties in Operation”). The Company also has an ownership interest through unconsolidated joint ventures in 615 acres of developable land, substantially all of which is zoned for commercial use. The Company refers to the Wholly Owned Properties under Development and the Properties in Operation collectively as the "Properties."
The Company focuses on creating value for shareholders through increasing profitability and cash flow. With respect to its Properties in Operation, the Company endeavors to maintain high occupancy levels while maximizing rental rates and controlling costs. The Company pursues development opportunities that it believes will create value and yield acceptable returns. The Company also acquires properties that it believes will create long-term value, and disposes of properties that no longer fit within the Company’s strategic objectives or in situations where it can optimize cash proceeds. The Company’s strategy with respect to product and market selection is expected generally to favor industrial and metro-office properties and markets with strong demographic and economic fundamentals.
The Company’s operating results depend primarily upon income from rental operations and are substantially influenced by rental demand for the Properties in Operation. The economic disruption that commenced in 2008 continues to adversely impact the Company’s business. Although we have seen some improvement in the general economy, the economy as it impacts our business has not returned to pre-recession levels. Rental demand for the Properties in Operation remained relatively flat for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2010 . During the year ended December 31, 2011 , the Company successfully leased 15.8 million square feet and attained occupancy of 91.9% for the Wholly Owned Properties in Operation and 88.7% for the JV Properties in Operation for a combined occupancy of 91.3% for the Properties in Operation as of that date. During the year ended December 31, 2011 , straight line rents on renewal and replacement leases were on average 7.2% lower than rents on expiring leases. At December 31, 2010 , occupancy for the Wholly Owned Properties in Operation was 89.9% and for the JV Properties in Operation was 83.0% for a combined occupancy for the Properties in Operation of 88.7% . The Company believes that average occupancy for its Properties in Operation will be flat or increase by up to 2% for 2012 compared to 2011. Furthermore, the Company believes that straight line rents on renewal and replacement leases for 2012 will on average be flat to 4% lower than rents on expiring leases.
Consistent with our strategy, during 2011 the Company was an active seller of suburban office properties and acquired or commenced development of industrial and metro-office properties. The foregoing activity is anticipated to result in a decline in net cash provided by operating activities until the acquisition properties are stabilized and the development properties are completed and leased. As a result, the Company anticipates that for 2012 the net cash provided by operating activities, less customary capital expenditures and leasing transaction costs, will be less than dividend distributions. The Company will continue to evaluate these circumstances in light of its dividend distribution policy.
WHOLLY OWNED CAPITAL ACTIVITY
Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2011 , the Company acquired 21 properties for an aggregate purchase price of $249.5 million . These properties, which contain 4.2 million square feet of leaseable space, were 83.0% leased as of December 31, 2011 . The Company also acquired six parcels of land totaling 382 acres for $43.1 million. For 2012, the Company anticipates that wholly owned property acquisitions will range from $100 million to $300 million and believes that certain of the acquired properties will be either vacant or underleased.

Table of Contents


Dispositions
Disposition activity allows the Company to, among other things, (1) reduce its holdings in certain markets and product types within a market consistent with the Company's strategy; (2) lower the average age of the portfolio; (3) optimize the cash proceeds from the sale of certain assets; and (4) obtain funds for investment activities. During the year ended December 31, 2011 , the Company realized proceeds of $371.6 million from the sale of 62 operating properties representing 4.2 million square feet and 61 acres of land. For 2012, the Company anticipates that wholly owned property dispositions will range from $250 million to $350 million.
Development
During the year ended December 31, 2011 , the Company did not bring any development projects into service but initiated 10 Wholly Owned Properties under Development with a projected Total Investment of $288.7 million , of which $88.8 million has been incurred as of December 31, 2011 . For 2012, the Company anticipates that wholly owned development deliveries will total between $30 million and $70 million and that during 2012 it will commence development on properties with an expected aggregate Total Investment in a range from $200 million to $300 million.
“Total Investment” for a property is defined as the property’s purchase price plus closing costs (in the case of acquisitions if vacant) and management’s estimate, as determined at the time of acquisition, of the cost of necessary building improvements in the case of acquisitions, or land costs and land and building improvement costs in the case of development projects, and, where appropriate, other development costs and carrying costs.
UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURE CAPITAL ACTIVITY
The Company periodically enters into unconsolidated joint venture relationships in connection with the execution of its real estate operating strategy.
Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2011 , none of the unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company held an interest acquired any properties. The Company does not anticipate that any unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company holds an interest will acquire any properties in 2012.
Dispositions
During the year ended December 31, 2011 , an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company holds a 25% interest realized proceeds of $8.4 million from the sale of one property which contained 231,000 square feet of leaseable space. In addition, an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company holds a 20% interest realized proceeds of $7.5 million from the sale of one property which contained 22,000 square feet of leaseable space. Also, an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company holds a 50% interest realized proceeds of $9.6 million from the sale of five acres of land. The Company does not anticipate that any unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company holds an interest will dispose of any properties in 2012.
Development
During the year ended December 31, 2011 , none of the unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company held an interest brought any properties into service or began any development activities. As of December 31, 2011 , none of the unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company held an interest had any properties under development. The Company does not anticipate that any unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company holds an interest will bring any development properties into service or begin any development activities in 2012.
Forward-Looking Statements
When used throughout this report, the words "believes," "anticipates," "estimates" and "expects" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements indicate that assumptions have been used that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual financial results or management plans and objectives to differ materially from those projected or expressed herein, including: the effect of national and regional economic conditions; rental demand; the Company's ability to identify, and enter into agreements with suitable joint venture partners in situations where it believes such arrangements are advantageous; the Company's ability to identify and secure additional properties and sites, both for itself and the joint ventures to which it is a party, that meet its criteria for acquisition or development; the current credit crisis and its impact on the availability and cost of capital; the effect of prevailing market interest rates; risks related to the integration of the operations of entities that we have acquired or may acquire; risks related to litigation; and other risks described from time to time in the Company's filings with the SEC. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Company bases these estimates, judgments and assumptions on historical experience and on other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The following critical accounting policies discussion reflects what the Company believes are the more significant estimates, assumptions and judgments used in the preparation of its Consolidated Financial Statements. This discussion of critical accounting policies is intended to supplement the description of the accounting policies in the footnotes to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and to provide additional insight into the information used by management when evaluating significant estimates, assumptions and judgments. For further discussion of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.
Capitalized Costs
Expenditures directly related to the acquisition or improvement of real estate, including interest and other costs capitalized on development projects and land being readied for development, are included in net real estate and are stated at cost. The Company considers a development property substantially complete upon the completion of tenant build-out, but no later than one year after the completion of major construction activity. The capitalized costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, construction costs, interest costs, real estate taxes, development related salaries and other costs incurred during the period of development. The determination to capitalize rather than expense costs requires the Company to evaluate the status of the development activity. Capitalized interest for the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 was $3.0 million , $929,000 and $7.6 million , respectively. Acquisition costs related to the purchase of operating properties with existing tenants are expensed as incurred. Acquisition-related expenses for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $2.6 million and $295,000 , respectively. There were no acquisition-related expenses during the year ended December 31, 2009.
Revenue Recognition
Rental revenue is recognized on a straight line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Deferred rent receivable represents the amount by which straight line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements. Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease. The capitalized above or below-market lease values are amortized as a component of rental revenue over the remaining term of the respective leases and any bargain renewal option periods, where appropriate.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company continually monitors the liquidity and creditworthiness of its tenants. Based on these reviews, provisions are established, and an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its tenants to make required rental payments is maintained. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010 , the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $7.5 million and $11.3 million , respectively. The Company had a net recovery of bad debts of $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and bad debt expense of $3.9 million and $4.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 , respectively.
Impairment of Real Estate
The Company evaluates its real estate investments upon the occurrence of significant adverse changes in operations to assess whether any impairment indicators are present that could affect the recovery of the recorded value. Indicators the Company uses to determine whether an impairment evaluation is necessary include the low occupancy level of the property, holding period for the property, strategic decisions regarding future development plans for a property under development and land held for development and other market factors. If impairment indicators are present, the Company performs an undiscounted cash flow analysis and compares the net carrying amount of the property to the property's estimated undiscounted future cash flow over the anticipated holding period. The Company assesses the expected undiscounted cash flows based upon a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, current market rental rates, changes in market rental rates, operating costs, capitalization rates, holding periods and discount rates. For these assumptions,

25

Table of Contents

the Company considers its experience and historical performance in the various markets and data provided by market research organizations. If any real estate investment is considered impaired, the carrying value of the property is written down to its estimated fair value. Fair value is estimated based on the discounting of future expected cash flows at a risk adjusted interest rate. During the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 , the Company recognized impairment losses of $7.8 million , $1.0 million and $9.5 million , respectively. The determination of whether an impairment exists requires the Company to make estimates, judgments and assumptions about the future cash flows. The Company has evaluated each of its Properties and land held for development and has determined that there are no additional impairment charges that need to be recorded at December 31, 2011 .
Intangibles
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, " Business Combinations ," the Company allocates the purchase price of real estate acquired to land, building and improvements and intangibles based on the relative fair value of each component. The value ascribed to in-place leases is based on the rental rates for the existing leases compared to the Company's estimate of the fair market lease rates for leases of similar terms and present valuing the difference based on an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired. Origination values are also assigned to in-place leases, and, where appropriate, value is assigned to customer relationships. Origination cost estimates include the costs to execute leases with terms similar to the remaining lease terms of the in-place leases, including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses. Additionally, the Company estimates carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods including real estate taxes, other operating expenses and lost rentals at contractual rates. The Company depreciates the amounts allocated to building and improvements over 40 years. The amounts allocated to the intangible relating to in-place leases, which are included in deferred financing and leasing costs or in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, are amortized on a straight line basis over the remaining term of the related leases. In the event that a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the intangible is written off.
Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
The Company analyzes its investments in joint ventures under ASC 810, " Consolidation ," to determine if the joint venture is considered a variable interest entity and would require consolidation. The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting as the Company exercises significant influence over, but does not control, these entities. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions.
On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if management's estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment.
Management estimated the fair value of its ownership interest in the joint ventures considering the estimated fair value of the real estate assets owned by the joint ventures and the related indebtedness as well as the working capital assets and liabilities of the joint ventures and the terms of the related joint venture agreements. The Company's estimates of fair value of the real estate assets are based on a discounted cash flow analysis incorporating a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, current market rental rates, changes in market rental rates, operating costs, capitalization rates, holding periods and discount rates. For these assumptions, the Company considered its experience and historical performance in the various markets and data provided by market research organizations. In assessing whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, the Company considers several factors. The longevity and severity of the impairment are considered as well as the expected time for recovery of value to occur, if ever.

Determining values in the current market is inherently difficult and is based on the Company's assessment of a number of factors which are difficult to predict. The market may decline further and future impairment charges may be needed.
No impairment losses on the Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2011 or 2010.
Results of Operations
The following discussion is based on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. It compares the results of operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2011 with the results of operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010 , and the results of operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010 with the results of operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2009 . As a result of the varying levels of development, acquisition and disposition activities by the Company in 2011 , 2010 and 2009 , the overall operating results of the Company during such periods are not directly comparable. However, certain data, including the Same Store (as defined below) comparison, do lend themselves to direct comparison.

This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes included elsewhere in this report.
Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2011 to Year Ended December 31, 2010
Overview
The Company’s average gross investment in operating real estate owned for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased to $ 4,986.9 million from $ 4,780.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 . This increase in operating real estate resulted in increases in rental revenue, operating expense reimbursement, real estate taxes and depreciation and amortization expense. Despite the increase in operating real estate, rental property operating expenses decreased due to one-time reductions in certain operating expenses.
Total operating revenue increased to $ 667.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $ 657.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 . This $ 10.6 million increase was primarily due to an increase in average gross investment in operating real estate. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in rental rates and termination fees, which totaled $ 3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to $ 5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 . Termination Fees are fees that the Company agrees to accept in consideration for permitting certain tenants to terminate their leases prior to the contractual expiration date. Termination Fees are included in rental revenue and if a property is sold or held for sale, related termination fees are included in discontinued operations. See “Other” below.
Segments
The Company evaluates the performance of the Wholly Owned Properties in Operation in terms of net operating income by reportable segment (see Note 18 to the Company’s financial statements for a reconciliation of this measure to net income). Net operating income includes operating revenue from external customers, real estate taxes, amortization of lease transaction costs and other operating expenses which relate directly to the management and operation of the assets within each reportable segment.The

Same Store
Property level operating income, exclusive of Termination Fees, for the Same Store properties increased to $ 464.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $ 459.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 , on a straight line basis (which recognizes rental revenue evenly over the life of the lease), and increased to $ 460.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $ 446.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 on a cash basis. This increase of 1.0% on a straight line basis was primarily due to reductions in certain operating expense items and due to an increase in average occupancy. The increase of 3.0% on a cash basis was primarily due to the above factors as well as contractual rental rate increases on existing leases.
Management generally considers the performance of the Same Store properties to be a useful financial performance measure because the results are directly comparable from period to period. Management further believes that the performance comparison should exclude Termination Fees since they are more event-specific and are not representative of ordinary performance results. In addition, Same Store property level operating income and Same Store cash basis property level operating income exclusive of Termination Fees is considered by management to be a more reliable indicator of the portfolio’s baseline performance. The Same Store properties consist of the 568 properties totaling approximately 59.5 million square feet owned on January 1, 2010, excluding properties sold through December 31, 2011 .

Set forth below is a schedule comparing the property level operating income, on a straight line basis and on a cash basis, for the Same Store properties for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 . Same Store property level operating income and cash basis property level operating income are non-US GAAP measures and do not represent income before property dispositions, income taxes, equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures and impairment charges because they do not reflect the consolidated operations of the Company. Investors should review Same Store results, along with Funds from operations (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below), US GAAP net income and cash flow from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities when considering the Company’s operating performance. Also set forth below is a reconciliation of Same Store property level operating income and cash basis property level operating income to net income (in thousands).

Includes Termination Fees of $600,000 and $1.4 million for the year s ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 , respectively.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses increased to $ 59.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $ 52.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 . This increase was primarily due to increases in performance-related personnel costs and increases in acquisition-related expenses. Personnel costs increased to $40.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $37.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. Acquisition-related expenses increased to $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $295,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased to $ 157.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $ 150.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 . This increase was primarily due to the increased investment in operating real estate.

Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $ 122.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $ 132.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 . This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in the average debt outstanding to $ 2,214.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $ 2,354.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as well as a decrease in the weighted

29

Table of Contents

average interest rate to 5.8% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from 6.2% for the year ended December 31, 2010 . The decrease was also partially due to an increase in interest capitalized during the year ended December 31, 2011 due to an increase in development activity.
Interest expense allocated to discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $ 9.0 million and $ 15.3 million , respectively. This decrease was due to the level of dispositions in 2011 compared to 2010 .
Other
Gain on property dispositions, net of impairment charges, increased to $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $ 4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 .
Income from discontinued operations increased to $ 70.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $ 23.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 . This increase was due to an increase in gains recognized on sales which were $ 60.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and $ 6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 .
As a result of the foregoing, the Company’s net income increased to $ 210.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $ 153.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 .
Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2010 to Year Ended December 31, 2009
Overview
The Company's average gross investment in operating real estate owned for the year ended December 31, 2010 increased to $4,780.1 million from $4,604.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 . This increase in operating real estate resulted in increases in rental revenue, operating expense reimbursement, rental property operating expenses and depreciation and amortization expense.
Total operating revenue increased to $657.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $644.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 . This $12.3 million increase was primarily due to the increase in investment in operating real estate and the increase in operating revenue from the "Prior Year Same Store" (as defined below) group of properties as well as an increase in Termination Fees, which totaled $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 . Termination Fees are included in rental revenue and if a property is sold or held for sale related termination fees are included in discontinued operations.

Same Store
Property level operating income, exclusive of Termination Fees, for the Prior Year Same Store properties decreased to $475.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $490.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 , on a straight line basis, and decreased to $467.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $476.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 on a cash basis. These decreases of 3.2% and 2.0% , respectively, were primarily due to a decrease in occupancy for industrial-flex and office properties.

Management generally considers the performance of the Prior Year Same Store properties to be a useful financial performance measure because the results are directly comparable from period to period. Management further believes that the performance comparison should exclude Termination Fees since they are more event specific and are not representative of ordinary performance results. In addition, Prior Year Same Store property level operating income and Prior Year Same Store cash basis property level operating income exclusive of Termination Fees are considered by management to be more reliable indicators of the portfolio's baseline performance. The Prior Year Same Store properties consist of the 615 properties totaling approximately 60.8 million square feet owned on January 1, 2009 and excluding properties sold through December 31, 2010 .

Set forth below is a schedule comparing the property level operating income, on a straight line basis and on a cash basis, for the Prior Year Same Store properties for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 . Prior Year Same Store property level operating income and Prior Year Same Store cash basis property level operating income are non-GAAP measures and do not represent income before property dispositions, income taxes, equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures and impairment charges because they do not reflect the consolidated operations of the Company. Investors should review Prior Year Same Store results, along with Funds from operations (see "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section), GAAP net income and net cash flow from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities when considering the Company's operating performance. Also, set forth below is a reconciliation of Prior Year Same Store property level operating income to net income (in thousands).

General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses increased to $52.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $51.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 . This increase was primarily due to a decrease in expenses capitalized due to the decrease in development activity.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased to $150.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $148.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 . The increase was primarily due to the increase in average gross investment in operating real estate during the respective periods and particularly the increased investment in tenant improvement costs, which are depreciated over a shorter period than buildings.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased to $134.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $134.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. This increase was primarily due to a decrease of $6.7 million in interest that was capitalized due to the decrease in development activity and because of $2.1 million in expense in 2010 relating to the prepayment of $119.3 million of secured loans. The effect of these items was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense because of the decrease in the average debt outstanding, which was $2,354.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $2,503.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The weighted average interest rate was unchanged at 6.2% for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
Interest expense allocated to discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $15.3 million and $17.8 million , respectively. This decrease was due to the increase in the level of dispositions in 2010 compared to 2009 .
Other
Gain on property dispositions increased to $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 .
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company recognized in continuing operations $98.3 million in impairment charges. These impairment charges primarily result from $78.8 million of impairment charges relating to the other-than-temporary decline in fair value below the carrying values of certain of the Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. During 2009, the Company also wrote off the $15.7 million of goodwill and other intangibles relating to its October 2007 acquisition of Republic Property Trust. Impairment charges in continuing operations in 2010 were $378,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company purchased $11.4 million of its 7.75% senior notes due April 2009, $6.9 million of its 8.50% senior notes due August 2010, $3.5 million of its 7.25% senior notes due March 2011, $4.9 million of its 6.375% senior notes due August 2012 and $3.5 million of its 6.625% senior notes due October 2017. These notes were purchased at an aggregate $1.5 million discount. This discount is included in net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 as debt extinguishment gain. There were no such transactions in 2010.
Income from discontinued operations decreased to $23.4 million from $48.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 . The decrease is due to lower operating income and a decrease in gains recognized on sales (net of impairment charges) which were $6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $17.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 . These decreases were partially offset by termination fees in discontinued operations which equaled $1.4 million in 2010 and $5.0 million in 2009 .
As a result of the foregoing, the Company's net income increased to $153.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $79.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 .
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
The Company seeks to maintain a conservative balance sheet and pursue a strategy of financial flexibility. The Company expects to expend $250 million to $350 million to fund its investment in development properties in 2012. The Company’s 2012 debt maturities total approximately $265.1 million. The Company anticipates that it will invest $100 million to $300 million in acquisitions in 2012. The Company expects to realize approximately $250 million to $350 million in proceeds from asset sales in 2012. The Company believes that proceeds from asset sales, its available cash, borrowing capacity from its Credit Facility (as defined below) and its other sources of capital including the public debt and equity markets will provide it with sufficient funds to satisfy these obligations.
Activity
As of December 31, 2011 , the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $81.9 million , including $63.7 million in restricted cash.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $317.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $292.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 . This $25.5 million increase was primarily due to fluctuations in assets and liabilities. Net cash flow provided by operating activities is the primary source of liquidity to fund dividends to shareholders and for recurring capital expenditures and leasing transaction costs for the Company’s Wholly Owned Properties in Operation.

Net cash used in investing activities was $56.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $103.5 million for the

33

Table of Contents

year ended December 31, 2010 . This $47.2 million decrease primarily resulted from an increase in proceeds from dispositions partially offset by an increase in cash used for acquisitions, land and development properties.
Net cash used in financing activities was $351.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $315.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 . This $35.7 million increase was primarily due to the net changes in the Company’s debt during the respective periods which is reflective of the disposition and acquisition activity described above. Net cash used in financing activities includes proceeds from the issuance of equity and debt, net of debt repayments, equity repurchases and shareholder distributions.
The Company funds its development activities and acquisitions with long-term capital sources and proceeds from the disposition of properties. For the year ended December 31, 2011 , a portion of these activities were funded through an unsecured $500 million credit facility. The Company has maintained an unsecured credit facility throughout 2009, 2010 and 2011. During that period the company has replaced, restated and amended its credit facility to address due dates and changes in borrowing costs. As replaced, restated and amended these credit facilities are referred to below as the "Credit Facility." The interest rate on borrowings under the Credit Facility fluctuates based upon ratings from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., Standard and Poor’s Ratings Group and Fitch, Inc. It matures in November 2015 and has a one year extension option. Based upon the Company's current credit ratings, borrowings under the facility currently bear interest at LIBOR plus 107.5 basis points.
The Company uses debt financing to lower its overall cost of capital in an attempt to increase the return to shareholders. The Company staggers its debt maturities and maintains debt levels it considers to be prudent. In determining its debt levels, the Company considers various financial measures including the debt to gross assets ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio. As of December 31, 2011 , the Company’s debt to gross assets ratio was 36.3% and for the year ended December 31, 2011 , the fixed charge coverage ratio was 3.1 x. Debt to gross assets equals total long-term debt and borrowings under the Credit Facility divided by total assets plus accumulated depreciation. The fixed charge coverage ratio equals income from continuing operations before property dispositions, including operating activity from discontinued operations, plus interest expense and depreciation and amortization, divided by interest expense, including capitalized interest, plus distributions on preferred units.
As of December 31, 2011 , $290.8 million in mortgage loans and $1,792.6 million in unsecured notes were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 5.9% . The interest rates on $2,067.5 million of mortgage loans and unsecured notes are fixed and range from 4.5% to 8.8% . The weighted average remaining term for the mortgage loans and unsecured notes is 4.8 years.

The net proceeds of the offering were used to pay outstanding borrowings under its Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes.

In January 2009, the Company satisfied a $20 million 8.125% medium term unsecured note due January 2009.

During the period from January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009 the Company purchased $11.4 million of its 7.75% senior notes due April 2009, $6.9 million of its 8.50% senior notes due August 2010, $3.5 million of its 7.25% senior notes due March 2011, $4.9 million of its 6.375% senior notes due August 2012 and $3.5 million of its 6.625% senior notes due October 2017. These purchases resulted in an aggregate $1.5 million debt extinguishment gain.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company sold 12,821,000 common shares pursuant to a continuous offering program for net proceeds of $283.2 million. All common shares authorized under this program have been sold.

In April 2009, the Company repaid $238.6 million of 7.75% senior notes due April 2009.

In April 2010, the Company repaid $119.3 million of mortgage loans. The weighted average interest rate of these loans as of March 31, 2010 was 7.3%.

In August 2010, the Company repaid $169.7 million of 8.50% senior notes due August 2010.

In August 2010, the Company replaced its existing $600 million Credit Facility with a $500 million Credit Facility. Based upon the Company's then-current credit ratings, borrowings under the Credit Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus 230 basis points.

In September 2010, the Company issued $350 million of ten-year, 4.75% senior notes. The net proceeds from this issuance were used to repay borrowings under the Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes.

In March 2011 , the Company used proceeds from the Credit Facility together with available cash on hand to repay $ 246.5 million principal value of 7.25% senior notes.

In October 2011 , the Company replaced its existing $500 million Credit Facility which was due November 2013 with a new Credit Facility. The new facility is for $500 million . It matures in November 2015 and has a one year extension option. Based upon the Company's current credit ratings, borrowings under the new facility currently bear interest at LIBOR plus 107.5 basis points.

The Company's annual Common Share dividend paid was $1.90 per share in 2011, 2010 and 2009.

The Company has an effective S-3 shelf registration statement on file with the SEC pursuant to which the Trust and the Operating Partnership may issue an unlimited amount of equity securities and debt securities.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2011 , the Company had investments in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures totaling $174.7 million .
Calculation of Funds from Operations
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) has issued a standard definition for Funds from operations (as defined below). The SEC has agreed to the disclosure of this non-GAAP financial measure on a per share basis in its Release No. 34-47226, Conditions for Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The Company believes that the calculation of Funds from operations is helpful to investors and management as it is a measure of the Company’s operating performance that excludes depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from operating property dispositions. As a result, year over year comparison of Funds from operations reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. In addition, management believes that Funds from operations provides useful information to the investment community about the Company’s financial performance when compared to other REITs since Funds from operations is generally recognized as the standard for reporting the operating performance of a REIT. Funds from operations available to common shareholders is defined by NAREIT as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and

35

Table of Contents

joint ventures. Funds from operations available to common shareholders does not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP and does not necessarily indicate that cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. It should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Funds from operations available to common shareholders also does not represent cash flows generated from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAA P. Historically the Company included impairment charges in this computation. However, excluding impairment charges from the computation of Funds from operations is consistent with NAREIT's reaffirmation in November of 2011 of its July, 2000 guidance on NAREIT-defined Funds from Operations, which indicated that impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate should be excluded in the computation of Funds from operations. Accordingly, Funds from operations have been restated for prior periods.

Funds from operations (“FFO”) available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 , and 2009 are as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Inflation
Inflation has remained relatively low in recent years, and as a result, it has not had a significant impact on the Company during

this period. To the extent an increase in inflation would result in increased operating costs, such as insurance, real estate taxes and utilities, substantially all of the tenants’ leases require the tenants to absorb these costs as part of their rental obligations. In addition, inflation also may have the effect of increasing market rental rates.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The following discussion about the Company's risk management includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued interest, dividends and distributions payable and other liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt, which is based on estimates by management and on rates quoted on December 31, 2011 for comparable loans, is greater than the aggregate carrying value by approximately $131.8 million at December 31, 2011 .
The Company's primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates. The Company is exposed to market risk related to its Credit Facility and certain other indebtedness as discussed in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources."
The Company also uses long-term and medium-term debt as a source of capital. These debt instruments are typically issued at fixed interest rates. When these debt instruments mature, the Company typically refinances such debt at then-existing market interest rates which may be more or less than the interest rates on the maturing debt. In addition, the Company may attempt to reduce interest rate risk associated with a forecasted issuance of new debt. In order to reduce interest rate risk associated with these transactions, the Company occasionally enters into interest rate protection agreements.
If the interest rates for variable rate debt were 100 basis points higher or lower during 2011 , the Company's interest expense would have increased or decreased by $1.0 million . If the interest rate for the fixed rate debt maturing in 2012 was 100 basis points higher or lower than its current rate of 6.48% , the Company's interest expense would have increased or decreased by $1.5 million .
The sensitivity analysis above assumes no changes in the Company's financial structure. It also does not consider future fluctuations in interest rates or the specific actions that might be taken by management to mitigate the impact of such fluctuations.
The Company is also exposed to currency risk on its net investment in the United Kingdom. The Company does not believe that this currency risk exposure is material to its financial statements.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Trust's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a - 15 (f) and 15d - 15(f). The Trust's internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Trust's management and Board of Trustees regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we assessed the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework . Based on our assessment we believe that, as of December 31, 2011, the Trust's internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
The Trust's independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP, has issued an attestation report on the Trust's internal controls over financial reporting, which is included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Liberty Property Trust
We have audited Liberty Property Trust's (the "Trust") internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). The Trust's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Trust's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Liberty Property Trust maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011 of Liberty Property Trust and our report dated February 24, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Liberty Property Trust at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Liberty Property Trust and Liberty Property Limited Partnership
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2011
1.     ORGANIZATION
Liberty Property Trust (the “Trust”) is a self-administered and self-managed Maryland real estate investment trust (a “REIT”). Substantially all of the Trust’s assets are owned directly or indirectly, and substantially all of the Trust’s operations are conducted directly or indirectly, by its subsidiary, Liberty Property Limited Partnership, a Pennsylvania limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership” and, together with the Trust and their consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”). The Trust is the sole general partner and also a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, owning 96.8% of the common equity of the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2011 . The Company provides leasing, property management, development, acquisition, and other tenant-related services for a portfolio of industrial and office properties which are located principally within the Mid-Atlantic, Southeastern, Midwestern and Southwestern United States and the United Kingdom. Unless otherwise indicated, the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements apply to both the Trust and the Operating Partnership. The terms the "Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” means the Trust and Operating Partnership collectively.
All square footage amounts are unaudited.
2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Trust, the Operating Partnership, wholly owned subsidiaries and those subsidiaries in which the Company owns a majority voting interest with the ability to control operations of the subsidiaries and where no approval, veto or other important rights have been granted to the noncontrolling shareholders. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to conform to current-year presentation including reclassifying the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for discontinued operations.
Real Estate and Depreciation
The properties are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Building and improvements
 
40 years (blended)
Capital improvements
 
15 - 20 years
Equipment
 
5 - 10 years
Tenant improvements
 
Term of the related lease
Expenditures directly related to the acquisition or improvement of real estate, including interest and other costs capitalized during development, are included in net real estate and are stated at cost. The capitalized costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development and construction costs, interest costs, real estate taxes, development-related salaries and other costs incurred during the period of development. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, " Business Combinations " ("ASC 805"), effective January 1, 2009, certain acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
In accordance with ASC 805, the Company allocates the purchase price of real estate acquired to land, building and improvements and intangibles based on the relative fair value of each component. Lease values for acquired properties are recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease. Origination values are also assigned to in-place leases, and, where appropriate, value is assigned to

52


customer relationships.
The Company considers any renewal options in determining the lease term in accordance with the definition included in ASC 840, " Leases. " To the extent a lease includes a tenant option to renew or extend the duration of the lease at a fixed or determinable rental rate, the Company evaluates whether or not that option represents a bargain renewal option by analyzing if there is reasonable assurance at the acquisition date that the tenant will exercise the option because the rental rate is sufficiently lower than the expected rental rate for equivalent property under similar terms and conditions at the exercise date.
The Company depreciates the amounts allocated to building and improvements over 40  years and the amounts allocated to intangibles relating to in-place leases, which are included in deferred financing and leasing costs and other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, over the remaining term of the related leases. This calculation includes both the remaining noncancelable period and any bargain renewal option periods.
Once a property is designated as held for sale, no further depreciation expense is recorded. Operations for properties identified as held for sale and/or sold where no continuing involvement exists are presented in discontinued operations for all periods presented.
The Company evaluates its real estate investments upon occurrence of a significant adverse change in its operations to assess whether any impairment indicators are present that affect the recovery of the recorded value. If indicators of impairment are identified, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows from the use and eventual disposition of the property and compares this amount to the carrying value of the property. If any real estate investment is considered impaired, a loss is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value.
Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting as the Company exercises significant influence, but does not control these entities. Under the equity method of accounting, the net equity investment of the Company is reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the Company's share of net income from the joint ventures is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if management's estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other-than-temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment. The estimated fair value of the investments is determined using a discounted cash flow model which is a Level III valuation under ASC 820, " Fair Value Measurement ." The Company considers a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, operating costs, capitalization rates, holding periods and discount rates. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management's assumptions, the values estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be realized.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company recognized impairment charges related to the decline in the fair values below the carrying values of certain of the Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. The Company considered the decline in fair value below the carrying value of $78.8 million to be other-than-temporary. The investment in unconsolidated joint ventures was impaired for the following reportable segments as of December 31, 2009 (in thousands):
Reportable Segment

Amount
Central
 
$
6,963

No impairment losses on unconsolidated joint ventures were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2011 or 2010.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased are classified as cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash includes tenant security deposits and escrow funds that the Company maintains pursuant to certain mortgage loans.

53


Restricted cash also includes the undistributed proceeds from the sale of residential land in Kent County, United Kingdom.
Accounts Receivable/Deferred Rent Receivable
The Company's accounts receivable are comprised of rents and charges for property operating costs due from tenants. The Company's deferred rent receivable represents the cumulative difference between rent revenue recognized on a straight line basis and contractual payments due under the terms of tenant leases. The Company periodically performs a detailed review of amounts due from tenants to determine if accounts receivable and deferred rent receivable balances are collectible. Based on this review, accounts receivable and deferred rent receivable are reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company considers tenant credit quality and payment history and general economic conditions in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts. If the accounts receivable balance or the deferred rent receivable balance is subsequently deemed uncollectible, the receivable and allowance for doubtful account balance are written off.
The allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $7.5 million and $11.3 million , respectively. The Company had a net recovery of bad debts of $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and bad debt expense of $3.9 million and $4.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 , respectively.
Goodwill
Goodwill represented the amounts paid in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired in connection with the acquisition of Republic Property Trust in October 2007. Pursuant to ASC 350, " Intangible - Goodwill and Other " ("ASC 350"), goodwill is not amortized to expense but rather is analyzed for impairment. In conjunction with the purchase of Republic Property Trust, goodwill and other intangibles of $15.7 million were recorded. The goodwill was assigned to the Metro Washington, D.C. operation ("reporting unit") which is part of the Metro reportable segment. The Company assessed goodwill for impairment annually in November and in interim periods if certain events occurred indicating the carrying value may be impaired. The Company performed its analysis for potential impairment of goodwill in accordance with ASC 350 in November 2009, which requires that a two-step impairment test be performed on goodwill. In the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared to its carrying value. The estimated fair value of the reporting unit is determined using a discounted cash flow model which considers a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs. If the fair value exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired, and no further testing is required. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then a second step must be performed in order to determine the implied fair value of the goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of the goodwill. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value then an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference. An impairment loss of $15.7 million was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2009 and there is no longer any goodwill in the Company's consolidated balance sheets.
Revenues
The Company earns rental income under operating leases with tenants. Rental income is recognized on a straight line basis over the applicable lease term. Operating expense reimbursements consisting of amounts due from tenants for real estate taxes, utilities and other recoverable costs are recognized as revenue in the period in which the corresponding expenses are incurred.
Termination fees (included in rental revenue) are fees that the Company has agreed to accept in consideration for permitting certain tenants to terminate their lease prior to the contractual expiration date. The Company recognizes termination fees in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin 104, " Revenue Recognition ," when the following conditions are met:
a.
the termination agreement is executed,
b.
the termination fee is determinable,
c.
all landlord services pursuant to the terminated lease have been rendered, and
d.
collectability of the termination fee is assured.
Deferred Financing and Leasing Costs
Costs incurred in connection with financing or leasing are capitalized and amortized on a straight line basis over the term of the related loan or lease. Deferred financing cost amortization is reported as interest expense. Intangible assets related to acquired in-place leases are amortized over the terms of the related leases.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued interest, dividend and distributions payable and other liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair values because of the short-term nature of these

54


instruments. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt, which is based on estimates by management and on rates quoted on December 31, 2011 for comparable loans, is greater than the aggregate carrying value by approximately $131.8 million at December 31, 2011 .
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a result, the Company generally is not subject to federal income taxation at the corporate level to the extent it distributes annually at least 100% of its REIT taxable income, as defined in the Code, to its shareholders and satisfies certain other organizational and operational requirements. The Company has met these requirements and, accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates (including any alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. Even as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local income and property taxes, and to federal income and excise taxes on undistributed taxable income.
Several of the Company's subsidiaries are taxable REIT subsidiaries (each a "TRS") and are subject to federal income taxes. In general, a TRS may perform additional services for tenants and generally may engage in real estate or non-real estate businesses that are not permitted REIT activities. The Company is also taxed in certain states, the United Kingdom, and Luxembourg. Accordingly, the Company has recognized federal, state and foreign income taxes in accordance with US GAAP, as applicable.
There are no uncertain tax positions or possibly significant unrecognized tax benefits that are reasonably expected to occur within the next 12 months. The Company's policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized benefits in interest expense and penalties in other expense. There were no interest or penalties deducted in any of the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 and no interest and penalties accrued at December 31, 2011 or December 31, 2010 .
Certain of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries had net operating loss carryforwards available of approximately $19.3 million as of December 31, 2011. These carryforwards begin to expire in 2018 . The Company has considered estimated future taxable income and has determined that a valuation allowance for the full carrying value of net operating loss carryforwards is appropriate.
The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, certain state and local jurisdictions, the United Kingdom and Luxembourg. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, and local, or United Kingdom and Luxembourg examinations by tax authorities for years before 2007 .
The Federal tax cost basis of the real estate was $5.8 billion and $5.6 billion at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Share Based Compensation
Share based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employees' requisite service period.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
ASU 2011-04
In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, “ Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in US GAAP and IFRS ” (“ASU 2011-04”), which amends ASC 820 to converge US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) requirements for measuring financial assets at fair value, including the disclosures regarding these measurements. 
ASU 2011-04 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
ASU 2011-05
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “ Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income ” (“ASU 2011-05”), which is intended to lead to converging guidance under US GAAP and IFRS related to presentation of comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012 and the provisions of ASU 2011-05 will be adopted retrospectively. In adopting ASU 2011-05, the Company will be required to disclose the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2011-05 will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Differences between the Company's net investment in unconsolidated joint ventures and its underlying equity in the net assets of the venture is primarily a result of impairments related to the Company's investment in unconsolidated joint ventures, the deferral of gains associated with the sales of properties to joint ventures in which the Company retains an ownership interest and loans made to the joint ventures by the Company. These adjustments have resulted in an aggregate difference reducing the Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures by $42.7 million as of December 31, 2011. Differences between historical cost basis and the basis reflected at the joint venture level (other than loans) are typically depreciated over the life of the related asset.

Mortgage Loans, Unsecured Notes
Mortgage loans with maturities ranging from 2012 to 2017 are collateralized by and in some instances cross-collateralized by properties with a net book value of $510.7 million as of December 31, 2011.
The interest rates on $2,067.5 million of mortgage loans and unsecured notes are fixed and range from 4.5% to 8.8% . The weighted average remaining term for the mortgage loans and unsecured notes is 4.8  years.
Credit Facility

The Company has maintained an unsecured credit facility throughout 2009, 2010 and 2011. During that period the Company has replaced, restated and amended its credit facility. This activity has resulted in changes to due dates, borrowing costs and covenant calculations. As replaced, restated and amended these credit facilities are referred to below as the "Credit Facility." The interest rate on borrowings under the Credit Facility fluctuates based upon ratings from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., Standard and Poor’s Ratings Group and Fitch, Inc. Based on the Company's present ratings, borrowings under the Credit Facility are priced at LIBOR plus 107.5 basis points. The Credit Facility expires in November 2015 and the Company has a one -year extension option. The Credit Facility contains a competitive bid option, whereby participating lenders bid on the interest rate to be charged. This feature is available for up to 50% of the amount of the facility. The interest rate on the $139.4 million of borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2011 was 1.48% . There is also a 20 basis point annual facility fee on the current borrowing capacity. The Credit Facility contains financial covenants, certain of which are set forth below:
total debt to total assets may not exceed 0.60 : 1 ;
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization to fixed charges may not be less than 1.50 : 1 ;
unsecured debt to unencumbered asset value must equal or be less than 60% and
unencumbered net operating income to unsecured interest expense must equal or exceed 200% .
Activity

In March 2011 , the Company used proceeds from its Credit Facility together with available cash on hand to repay $246.5 million principal value of 7.25% senior notes.

In October 2011 , the Company replaced its existing $500 million Credit Facility which was due November 2013 with a new Credit Facility. The new facility is for $500 million . It matures in November 2015 and has a one -year extension option. Based upon the Company's current credit ratings, borrowings under the new facility currently bear interest at LIBOR plus 107.5 basis points.
During the year ended December 31, 2010 , the Company used available cash and proceeds from its Credit Facility to repay $119.3 million principal value of mortgage loans . The weighted average interest rate of these loans as of March 31, 2010 was 7.3% . The Company incurred a $1.2 million prepayment penalty and wrote off $936,000 in deferred financing costs in conjunction with the prepayment of these loans. These costs are included as interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
During the year ended December 31,  2010 , the Company used proceeds from its Credit Facility to repay $169.7 million principal value of 8.50% senior notes due August 2010 .
During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company replaced its existing $600 million Credit Facility with a $500 million

These notes were purchased at a $1.5 million aggregate discount . The discount is included in net income as debt extinguishment gain.

Common units
General and limited partners' equity - common units relates to limited partnership interests of the Operating Partnership issued in connection with the formation of the Operating Partnership and certain subsequent acquisitions. The common units outstanding as of December 31, 2011 have the same economic characteristics as common shares of the Trust. The 3,808,746 outstanding common units are the limited partners' equity - common units held by persons and entities other than the Trust, the general partner of the Operating Partnership, which holds a number of common units equal to the number of outstanding common shares of beneficial interest. Both the common units held by the Trust and the common units held by persons and entities other than the Trust are counted in the weighted average number of common units outstanding during any given period. The 3,808,746 outstanding common units share proportionately in the net income or loss and in any distributions of the Operating Partnership and are exchangeable into the same number of common shares of the Trust. The market value of the 3,808,746 outstanding common units at December 31, 2011 based on the closing price of the common shares of the Company at December 31, 2011 was $ 117.6 million .

Options
The Company has authorized the grant of options under the Plan and the 2008 Plan of up to 21.1 million common shares of the Company. All options granted have 10 -year terms and most options vest and are expensed over a three -year period, with options

70


to purchase up to 20% of the shares exercisable after the first anniversary, up to 50% after the second anniversary and 100% after the third anniversary of the date of grant.
Share based compensation cost related to options for the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 was $1.7 million , $2.0 and $1.5 million , respectively.
The fair value of share option awards is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The following weighted-average assumptions were utilized in calculating the fair value of options granted during the periods indicated:

The weighted average fair value of options granted during the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 was $6.17 , $5.00 and $2.30 , respectively. Exercise prices for options outstanding as of December 31, 2011 ranged from $20.32 to $49.74 . The weighted average remaining contractual life of the options outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2011 was 5.4  years and 4.4  years, respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 , the total intrinsic value of share options exercised (the difference between the market price at exercise and the price paid by the individual to exercise the option) was $900,000 , $1.4 million and $1.7 million , respectively. As of December 31, 2011 , 1.9 million of the options outstanding and exercisable had an exercise price higher than the closing price of the Company's common shares and are considered to have no intrinsic value at that date. As of December 31, 2011 , 560,000 options outstanding and exercisable had an exercise price lower than the closing price of the Company's common shares. The aggregate intrinsic value of these options was $2.8 million at that date. The total cash received from the exercise of options for the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 was $7.6 million , $8.5 million and $4.3 million , respectively. The Company has historically issued new shares to satisfy share option exercises.
As of December 31, 2011 , there was $1.0 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested options granted under the Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.7  years.
Long Term Incentive Shares ("LTI")
Restricted LTI share grants made under the Plan are valued at the grant date fair value, which is the market price of the underlying common shares, and vest ratably over a 5-year period beginning with the first anniversary of the grant.
During 2011 , 2010 and 2009 , the Company granted Restricted Stock Units to the executive officers pursuant to the 2008 Plan. A portion of the Restricted Stock Unit will vest from 50% to 200% at the end of a three year period based on whether our total return exceeds the average total returns of a selected group of peer companies ("First Portion"). The grant date fair value of the First Portion was calculated based on a Monte Carlo simulation model and was determined to be 146% , 141% and 175% as of December  2011 , 2010 and 2009 , respectively, of the market value of a common share as of the grant date and is amortized over the respective three year period subject to certain accelerated vesting due to the age and years of service of certain executive officers. Another portion of the Restricted Stock Unit will vest from 50% to 200% at the end of a three year period based on the amount of the Company's Funds from operations ("Second Portion"). Targets are established for each of the three year s in the relevant award period. Depending on how each year's performance compares to the projected performance for that year, the Restricted Stock Units are deemed earned and will be payable to the executive officer at the end of the award period. The fair

71


value of the Second Portion is based on the market value of a common share as of the grant date and is being amortized to expense during the period from grant date to the vesting dates, adjusting for the expected level of vesting that is anticipated to occur at those dates also subject to certain accelerated vesting provisions as described above.
Share-based compensation cost related to restricted LTI share grants for the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 were $8.2 million , $6.6 million and $8.1 million , respectively.
The Company's restricted LTI share activity for the year ended December 31, 2011 is as follows:

Bonus Shares issued for the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 were 85,471 , 60,238 and 80,187 , respectively. Share-based compensation cost related to Bonus Shares for the years ended December 31, 2011 , 2010 and 2009 was $2.8 million , $2.0 million and $1.7 million , respectively.
Profit Sharing Plan
The Plan provides that employees of the Company, below the officer level, may receive up to 5% of base pay in the form of cash contributions to an investment account depending on Company performance.

Exhibit 3.1.25

Execution Version
NINTH AMENDMENT
TO
SECOND RESTATED AND AMENDED
AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
OF
LIBERTY PROPERTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
This Ninth Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership , dated as of November 30, 2011 (this “ Amendment ”), is entered into bey LIBERTY PROPERTY TRUST, a Maryland real estate investment trust, as general partner (the “ General Partner ”) of LIBERTY PROPERTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Pennsylvania limited partnership (the “ Partnership ”), for itself and on behalf of the limited partners of the Partnership, and the persons and entities executing this Amendment on the signature pages hereof and listed thereon as limited partners (each, a “ Series I Preferred Partner ” and, collectively, the “ Series I Preferred Partners ”).
Whereas , Section 4.2(a) of the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership, as amended by that certain First Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of July 28, 1999, that certain Second Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of April 18, 2000, that certain Third Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of June 10, 2002, that certain Fourth Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of September 1, 2004, that certain Fifth Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of June 16, 2005, that certain Sixth Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of June 30, 2005 (as amended), that certain Seventh Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of December 15, 2006 and that certain Eighth Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of August 21, 2007 (collectively, as amended, the “ Partnership Agreement ”), authorizes the General Partner to cause the Partnership to issue additional Partnership Units in one or more classes or series, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, powers and duties as shall be determined by the General Partner, subject to the provisions of such section; and
Whereas , pursuant to the authority granted to the General Partner pursuant to Sections 4.2(a) and 14.1(b) of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner desires to amend the Partnership Agreement (i) to establish two new classes of Partnership Units, the “Series I-1 Preferred Units” and the “Series I-2 Preferred Units” (both as hereinafter defined, and collectively, the “Series I Preferred Units”), and to set forth the designations, rights, powers, preferences and duties of such Series I Preferred Units, (ii) to issue the Series I Preferred Units to the Series I Preferred Partners in the amounts set forth opposite their respective names on Exhibit A to this Amendment, and admit the Series I Preferred Partners as Additional Limited Partners and (iii) to make certain other changes to the Partnership Agreement.





Now, therefore , in consideration of good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are acknowledged, the General Partner hereby amends the Partnership Agreement as follows:
Section 1. Definitions; Capital Account Balance .
(a) For purposes of this Amendment, the term “ Parity Preferred Units ” shall be used to refer to any class or series of Partnership Interests of the Partnership now or hereafter authorized, issued or outstanding expressly designated by the Partnership to rank on a parity with Series I Preferred Units with respect to distributions and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Partnership including, without limitation, the “7.45% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Partnership Interests,” the “7.625% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Partnership Interests,” the “7.00% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Partnership Interests,” the “6.65% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Partnership Interests,” the “6.70% Series G Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Partnership Interests” and the “7.40% Series H Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Partnership Interests.” The terms “ Series I-1 Priority Return ” and “ Series I-2 Priority Return ” shall mean amounts equal to 4.00% and 6.25%, respectively, per annum, as the same may be adjusted pursuant to Section 3(a) below, determined on the basis of a 360 day year of twelve (12) 30-day months (and for any period shorter than a full quarterly period for which distributions are computed, the amount of the distribution payable will be computed based on the ratio of the actual number of days elapsed in such period to ninety (90) days), cumulative to the extent not distributed for any given distribution period pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Partnership Agreement, of the stated value of $25 per Series I Preferred Unit, commencing on the date of issuance of such Series I Preferred Unit. The term “ Subsidiary ” shall mean with respect to any person, any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture or other entity of which a majority of (i) voting power of the voting equity securities or (ii) the outstanding equity interests, is owned, directly or indirectly, by such person.
(b) The aggregate Capital Account Balance of the initial Series I Preferred Partner shall be equal to $49,750,000 minus the amount required to repay the Existing Debt in full on the first business day immediately following the date of Closing, including, without limitation, any and all fees, costs and penalties imposed by the lender in connection therewith, as set forth on Exhibit A-1 hereto, and the Capital Account Balance of each subsequent Series I Preferred Partner following the liquidation of the initial Series I Preferred Partner is set forth opposite the name of such Series I Preferred Partner on Exhibit A-2 hereto. On the date hereof, the initial Series I Preferred Partner shall be the holder of all of the Series I-1 Preferred Units and Series I-2 Preferred Units (each as defined below) and as part of the liquidation of the initial Series I Preferred Partner shall distribute to the Persons set forth on Exhibit A-2 the Series I-1 Preferred Units or Series I-2 Preferred Units, as applicable, in accordance with Section 8 of this Amendment and such Persons shall become Series I Preferred Partners.
Section 2. Designation and Number . A series of Partnership Interests in the Partnership designated as the “4.00% Series I-1 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Partnership Interests” (the “ Series I-1 Preferred Units ”) is hereby established. The maximum number of Series I-1 Preferred Units shall be 362,369.260. A series of Partnership Interests in the Partnership designated as the “6.25% Series I-2 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Partnership Interests” (the “ Series I-2 Preferred Units ”) is hereby established. The maximum number of Series I-2 Preferred Units shall be 301,500.07.
Section 3.
(a) Payment of Distributions . Subject to the rights of holders of Parity Preferred Units and holders of Partnership Interests ranking senior to the Series I Preferred Units as to payment of distributions, pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Partnership Agreement, holders of Series I Preferred Units will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Partnership acting through the General Partner, out of Net Operating Cash Flow, cumulative preferential cash distributions at the rate per





annum of 4.00% of the stated value of $25 per Series I-1 Preferred Unit or 6.25% of the stated value of $25 per Series I-2 Preferred Unit, as the case may be. All distributions shall be cumulative, shall accrue from the original date of issuance and will be payable (i) quarterly in arrears, on or before March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year commencing on the first such date to occur after the original date of issuance, and (ii) in the event of a redemption of Series I Preferred Units, on the redemption date (each a “ Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date ”). The amount of the distribution payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve (12) 30-day months and for any period shorter than a full quarterly period for which distributions are computed, the amount of the distribution payable will be computed based on the ratio of the actual number of days elapsed in such period to ninety (90) days. If any date on which distributions are to be made on the Series I Preferred Units is not a Business Day (as such term is defined herein), then payment of the distribution to be made on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date. Distributions on the Series I Preferred Units will be made to the holders of record of the Series I Preferred Units on the relevant record dates to be fixed by the Partnership acting through the General Partner, which record dates shall in no event exceed fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the relevant Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date (the “ Preferred Unit Partnership Record Date ”). “ Business Day ” shall mean each day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.
(b) Distributions Cumulative . Distributions on the Series I Preferred Units will accrue whether or not the terms and provisions of any agreement of the Partnership, including any agreement relating to its indebtedness at any time prohibit the declaration, setting aside for payment or current payment of distributions, whether or not the Partnership has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such distributions and whether or not such distributions are authorized. Accrued but unpaid distributions on the Series I Preferred Units will accumulate as of the Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date on which they first become payable. Distributions on account of arrears for any past distribution periods may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to a regular Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date to holders of record of the Series I Preferred Units on the record date fixed by the Partnership acting through the General Partner, which date shall not exceed fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the payment date. Accumulated and unpaid distributions will not bear interest.
(c) Priority as to Distributions .
(i) So long as any Series I Preferred Units are outstanding, no distribution of cash or other property shall be authorized, declared, paid or set apart for payment on or with respect to any class or series of Partnership Interest of the Partnership ranking junior as to the payment of distributions or rights upon a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Partnership to the Series I Preferred Units (collectively, “ Junior Units ”), nor shall any cash or other property be set aside for or applied to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition for consideration of any Series I Preferred Units, any Parity Preferred Units or any Junior Units, unless, in each case, all distributions accumulated on all Series I Preferred Units and all classes and series of outstanding Parity Preferred Units have been paid in full or a sum sufficient for such full payment has been irrevocably deposited in trust for immediate payment. The foregoing sentence will not prohibit (a) distributions payable solely in Junior Units, (b) the conversion of Junior Units or Parity Preferred Units into Partnership Interests of the Partnership ranking junior to the Series I Preferred Units as to distributions and rights upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership,





(c) the redemption of Partnership Interests corresponding to any Parity Preferred Shares or Junior Shares to be purchased by the General Partner pursuant to Article VII of the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust of the General Partner (as amended and modified through the date hereof, the “ Charter ”) to preserve the General Partner's status as a real estate investment trust, provided that such redemption shall be upon the same terms as the corresponding purchase pursuant to Article VII of the Charter or (d) the foreclosure by the Partnership on the Partnership Interests constituting the Indemnity Collateral and/or the Special Indemnity Collateral (as such term is defined in Section 13.3 of the Partnership Agreement).
(ii) So long as distributions have not been paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not irrevocably deposited in trust for immediate payment) upon the Series I Preferred Units, all distributions authorized and declared on the Series I Preferred Units and all classes or series of outstanding Parity Preferred Units shall be authorized and declared so that the amount of distributions authorized and declared per Series I Preferred Unit and such other classes or series of Parity Preferred Units shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued distributions per Series I Preferred Unit and such other classes or series of Parity Preferred Units (which shall not include any accumulation in respect of unpaid distributions for prior distribution periods if such class or series of Parity Preferred Units do not have cumulative distribution rights) bear to each other. No interest or any sum of money in lieu of interest shall be payable in respect of any distribution, payment or payments on Series I Preferred Units which may be in arrears.
(d) No Further Rights . Holders of Series I Preferred Units shall not be entitled to any distributions, whether payable in cash, other property or otherwise, in excess of the full cumulative distributions described in this Amendment.
Section 4. Allocations . Section 1 of Exhibit C to the Partnership Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced by the following:
(a) Net Income . Except as otherwise provided herein, Net Income for any fiscal year or other applicable period shall be allocated in the following order and priority:
(i) first, to the General Partner to the extent of Net Loss previously allocated to the General Partner pursuant to Section 1(b)(iii) below for all prior fiscal years or other applicable periods exceed Net Income previously allocated to the General Partner pursuant to this Section 1(a)(i) for all prior fiscal years or other applicable periods;
(ii) second, to Partners holding any Partnership Interests that are entitled to any preference in distribution to the extent that Net Loss previously allocated to such holders pursuant to Section l(b)(ii) below for all prior fiscal years or other applicable periods exceeds Net Income previously allocated to such Partners pursuant to this Section 1(a)(ii) for all prior fiscal years or other applicable periods;
(iii) third, to Partners holding Partnership Interests of a class not entitled to preference in distribution to the extent that Net Loss previously allocated to such holders pursuant to Section 1(b)(i) below for all prior fiscal years or other applicable periods exceeds Net Income previously allocated to such holders pursuant to this Section 1(a)(iii) for all prior fiscal years or other applicable periods;
(iv) fourth, to Partners holding any Partnership Interests that are entitled to any preference in distribution in accordance with the rights of any such class of Partnership Interests until each such Partnership Interest has been allocated, Net Income equal to the excess of (A) the cumulative amount of preferred distributions such Partners are entitled to receive to the last day of the current fiscal year or other applicable period or to the date of redemption, to the extent such Partnership Interests are redeemed during such period, over (B) the cumulative Net Income allocated to such Partners, pursuant to this Section 1(a)(iv)





for all prior fiscal years or other applicable periods (and, within each such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective share of such Partnership Interests each Partner holds as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made); and
(v) fifth, with respect to Partnership Interests that are not entitled to any preference in the allocation of Net Income, pro rata to each such class in accordance with the terms of such class (and, within each such class, pro rata in proportion to each Partner's respective share of such Partnership Interests as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made).
Provided, further, that the holders of the Series E Preferred Units, Series F Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units, Series H Preferred Units and Series I Preferred Units shall be allocated an amount of the net “rents from real property” (within the meaning of Sec. 856(d) of the Code) of the Partnership equal to all amounts paid or accrued with respect to the Series E Preferred Units, Series F Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units, Series H Preferred Units and Series I Preferred Units, respectively, pursuant to Section 3.(a) of the Fifth Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of June 16, 2005, Section 3.(a) of the Sixth Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of June 30, 2005 (as amended), Section 3.(a) of the Seventh Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of December 15, 2006, Section 3.(a) of the Eighth Amendment to the Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of August 21, 2007 and Section 3.(a) of this Amendment, respectively, with respect to such fiscal year or other period in lieu of any allocation of Net Income or Net Loss under this Section 4 and the amount of Net Income and Net Loss of the Partnership for any fiscal year or other period shall be computed after taking into account the special allocation of such net income to the holders of the Series E Preferred Units, Series F Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units, Series H Preferred Units and Series I Preferred Units, provided that the amount of net “rents from real property” that are allocated to the holders of the Series F Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units, Series H Preferred Units and Series I Preferred Units with respect to any fiscal year or other period shall not exceed the amount of Net Income that would have been allocated to such holders under this Section 1 had the foregoing allocations of net “rents from real property” not been included in the Partnership Agreement.
(b) Net Loss . Except as otherwise provided herein, Net Loss for any fiscal year or other applicable period shall be allocated in the following order and priority:
(i) first, with respect to classes of Partnership Interests that are not entitled to any preference in distribution (including the General Partner Interest), pro rata to each such class in accordance with the terms of such class (and, within such class, pro rata in proportion to each Partner's respective share of such Partnership Interests as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made) until the Adjusted Capital Account (ignoring for this purpose any amounts a Partner is obligated to contribute to the capital of the Partnership or is deemed obligated to contribute pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c)(2)) of each Partner with respect to such Partnership Interests is reduced to zero;
(ii) second, to the Partners holding any Partnership Interests that are entitled to any preference in distribution in accordance with the rights of any such class of Partnership Interests (and, if there is more than one class of such Partnership Interests, then in the reverse order of their preference in distribution), until the Adjusted Capital Account (modified in the same manner as in clause (i), except that such Partner's Adjusted Capital Account shall be increased by the amount of the Protected Partner's Protected Amount (as defined in the DRO, which is in turn defined in Section 12(e)(iii) hereof) of such Partner) of each such Partner with respect to such Partnership Interests is reduced to zero; and
(iii) third, to the General Partner.
To the extent permitted under Section 704 of the Code, solely for purposes of allocating Net Income





or Net Loss in any taxable year (or a portion thereof) to Partners holding Series B Preferred Units, Series D Preferred Units, Series E Preferred Units, Series F Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units or Series H Preferred Units pursuant to this Section 4, items of Net Income or Net Loss, as the case may be, shall not include Depreciation with respect to properties that are “ceiling limited” in respect of holders of Series B Preferred Units, Series D Preferred Units, Series E Preferred Units, Series F Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units or Series H Preferred Units. For purposes of the preceding sentence, Partnership property shall be considered “ceiling limited” in respect of a holder of Series B Preferred Units, Series D Preferred Units, Series E Preferred Units, Series F Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units or Series H Preferred Units if Depreciation attributable to such Partnership property which would otherwise be allocable to such Partner, without regard to this paragraph, exceeds depreciation determined for federal income tax purposes attributable to such Partnership property which would otherwise be allocable to such holder by more than 5%. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentences in this paragraph, in applying this paragraph, the General Partner may, in its discretion for administrative ease and convenience, calculate Net Income or Net Loss in any taxable year (or a portion thereof) allocable to the Partners holding Series B Preferred Units, Series D Preferred Units, Series E Preferred Units, Series F Preferred Units Series G Preferred Units or Series H Preferred Units by excluding Depreciation with respect to all properties of the Partnership. The parties intend hereunder that the aggregate Capital Account balance of the holders of Series B Preferred Units, Series D Preferred Units, Series E Preferred Units, Series F Preferred Units Series G Preferred Units, Series H Preferred Units or Series I Preferred Units at any date shall not exceed the amount of the original Capital Contribution of such holder plus the cumulative Priority Return, whether or not declared, to the extent not previously distributed.
Section 5. Liquidation Proceeds .
(a) Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Partnership, distributions on the Series I Preferred Units shall be made in accordance with Section 8.2 of the Partnership Agreement.
(b) Notice . Written notice of any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Partnership, stating the payment date or dates when, and the place or places where, the amounts distributable in such circumstances shall be payable, shall be given by (i) fax and (ii) by first class mail, postage prepaid, not less than twenty (20) and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record holder of the Series I Preferred Units at the respective addresses of such holders as the same shall appear on the transfer records of the Partnership.
(c) No Further Rights . After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of Series I Preferred Units will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Partnership.
(d) Consolidation, Merger or Certain Other Transactions . The consolidation or merger of the Partnership with or into any other corporation, trust, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (or of any other corporation, trust, partnership, limited liability company or other entity with or into the Partnership), or the sale, lease, exchange, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Partnership shall not be deemed to constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Partnership; provided , that upon the sale, lease, exchange, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Partnership, if the Common Shares of the General Partner shall no longer be traded on a nationally recognized exchange, prior to the Partnership making any distributions to the holders of Junior Units, the Partnership shall set aside and reserve an amount equal to the aggregate Capital Accounts of all Parity Preferred Units at the time of such sale, lease, exchange, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Partnership and shall not distribute the amounts so reserved until the liquidation of the Partnership and distribution of amounts pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Partnership Agreement.
Section 6. Redemption .





(a) Option of Series I Partners to Cause Optional Redemption .
(i) Each holder of the Series I-1 Preferred Units may, at its sole option, at any time after the date of this Amendment and prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that is six (6) months after the date of this amendment, require the Partnership to redeem such holder's Series I-1 Preferred Units, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, upon five (5) Business Days written notice, at a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to the original Capital Contribution of such holder with respect to such Units plus the cumulative Series I-1 Priority Return with respect to such Units, whether or not declared, to the redemption date to the extent not previously distributed (the “ Series I-1 Redemption Price ”). After 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that is six (6) months after the date of this amendment, no Series I-1 Preferred Units that have not previously been the subject of a notice of redemption delivered to the Partnership pursuant to Section 6(c) of this Amendment shall be eligible for redemption at the option of the holder thereof.
(ii) Each holder of the Series I-2 Preferred Units may, at its sole option, at any time after the date of this amendment, but not more than one time during any calendar quarter, require the Partnership to redeem such holder's Series I-2 Preferred Units, in whole or in part (but, with respect to partial redemptions, not in an amount less than one thousand (1,000) units in any given redemption), at any time or from time to time, upon ten (10) days written notice, at a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to the original Capital Contribution of such holder with respect to such Units plus the cumulative Series I-2 Priority Return with respect to such Units, whether or not declared, to the redemption date to the extent not previously distributed (the “ Series I-2 Redemption Price ”).
(b) Mandatory Redemption at the Option of the Partnership . On or after the later of (i) the date following the date of expiration of the Protected Period with respect to any Series I-2 Preferred Holder or (ii) November 29, 2016, the Partnership at its sole option shall have the right to redeem the Series I-2 Preferred Units held by any Series I-2 Preferred Holder, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days written notice, at a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to the Series I-2 Redemption Price for such holder; provided , however , that no redemption pursuant to this Section 6 will be permitted if the Series I-2 Redemption Price does not equal or exceed the original Capital Contribution of such holder plus the cumulative Series I-2 Priority Return, as the case may be, whether or not declared, to the redemption date to the extent not previously distributed.
(c) Procedures for Redemption .
(i) In the case of a redemption at the option of a holder of Series I Preferred Units pursuant to Section 6(a), such holder shall provide written notice of such redemption to the Partnership at the executive offices of its general partner. The Partnership will pay the Series I-1 Redemption Price or the Series I-2 Redemption Price, as the case may be, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the holder's notice of redemption in the case of the redemption of any Series I-1 Preferred Units and within ten (10) days of receipt of the holder's notice of redemption in the case of the redemption of any Series I-2 Preferred Units. If the Series I Preferred Units are evidenced by a certificate and if fewer than all Series I Preferred Units evidenced by any certificate are being redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued, upon surrender of the certificate evidencing all Series I Preferred Units, evidencing the unredeemed Series I Preferred Units without cost to the holder thereof. On and after the date of such redemption, distributions will cease to accumulate on the Series I Preferred Units or portions thereof called for redemption, unless the Partnership defaults in the payment thereof. If any date fixed for redemption of Series I Preferred Units is not a Business Day, then payment of the Series I-1 Redemption Price or the Series I-2 Redemption Price, as the case may be, payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and





without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay). If payment of the Series I-1 Redemption Price or the Series I-2 Redemption Price, as the case may be, is not made by the Partnership on the redemption date, distributions on such Series I Preferred Units will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the applicable Redemption Price.
(ii) In the case of a redemption at the option of the Partnership pursuant to Section 6(b), notice of redemption (which shall be irrevocable) will be mailed by the Partnership, by certified mail, postage prepaid, not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the respective holders of record of the Series I Preferred Units at their respective addresses as they appear on the records of the Partnership. No failure to give or defect in such notice or in the transmission thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series I Preferred Units except as to the holder to whom such notice was defective or not given or received. In addition to any information required by law, each such notice shall state: (1) the redemption date; (2) the Series I-1 Redemption Price or Series I-2 Redemption Price, as the case may be; (3) the aggregate number of Series I Preferred Units to be redeemed and if fewer than all of the outstanding Series I Preferred Units are to be redeemed, the number of Series I Preferred Units to be redeemed held by such holder; (4) the place or places where the Series I Preferred Units are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price; (5) that distributions on the Series I Preferred Units to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on such redemption date; and (6) that payment of the Redemption Price will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Series I Preferred Units.
(iii) If the Series I Preferred Units are evidenced by a certificate and if fewer than all Series I Preferred Units evidenced by any certificate are being redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued, upon surrender of the certificate evidencing all Series I Preferred Units, evidencing the unredeemed Series I Preferred Units without cost to the holder thereof. On and after the date of such redemption, distributions will cease to accumulate on the Series I Preferred Units or portions thereof called for redemption, unless the Partnership defaults in the payment thereof. If any date fixed for redemption of Series I Preferred Units is not a Business Day, then payment of the Series I-1 Redemption Price or the Series I-2 Redemption Price, as the case may be, payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay). If payment of the Series I-1 Redemption Price or the Series I-2 Redemption Price, as the case may be, is not made by the Partnership on the redemption date, distributions on such Series I Preferred Units will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the applicable Redemption Price.

The Partnership shall calculate any required indemnity payment owed to a Protected Partner or Indirect Owner pursuant to this Section 12(c)(i) and make any requirement payment within ninety (90) days after such breach has occurred. For purposes of the preceding sentence, (i) all income arising from a transaction or event that is treated as ordinary income under the applicable provisions of the Code and all payments under this Section 12(c)(i) shall be treated as subject to federal, state and local income tax at an effective tax rate imposed on ordinary income of individuals residing in the city and state of residence of such Protected Partner, determined using the maximum federal rate of tax on ordinary income and the maximum state and local rates of tax on ordinary income then in effect in such city and state, (ii) all income arising from a transaction or event that is treated as “unrecaptured section 1250 gain” within the meaning of Code Section 1(h)(6) with respect to such Protected Partner shall be subject to federal, state and local income tax at the effective tax rate imposed on the unrecaptured section 1250 gain of individuals residing in the city and state of residence of such Protected Partner, (iii) all other income arising from the transaction or event shall be subject to federal, state, and local income tax at the effective tax rate imposed on long-term capital gains of individuals residing in the city and state of residence of such Protected Partner, determined using the maximum federal, state and local rates on long-term capital gains then in effect, (iv) any amounts giving rise to a payment pursuant to this Section 12(c)(i) will be determined assuming that the transaction or event giving rise to the Partnership's obligation to make a payment was the only transaction or event reported on the Protected Partner's tax return (i.e., without giving effect to any loss carry forwards or other deductions attributable to such Protected Partner); provided, however, that tax effect will be given to any suspended losses of a Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) with respect to its direct or indirect investment in the Partnership or Glenborough Properties, L.P.

In the case of a Protected Partner which is a partnership or disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes, the preceding sentence shall be applied treating each Indirect Owner of such partnership as if it were directly a Protected Partner, and in the case of a corporate Protected Partner, the preceding sentence shall be applied using the highest marginal rate of tax applicable to corporations for federal income tax purposes and state corporate income or franchise tax purposes. For purposes of computing the damages payable in the aggregate to the Protected Partners under this Section 12(c)(i) with respect to a Protected Property Disposition, in no event shall the gain taken into account with respect to the Protected Property exceed the amount of Built In Gain set forth on Exhibit B hereto with respect to the Protected Property (after subtracting from such scheduled amount any gain attributable to such scheduled amount which was previously recognized by (i) a Protected Partner upon a transfer of some or all of its Protected Units or (ii) an Indirect Owner upon a transfer of some or all of such Indirect Owner's equity interest in such Protected Partner). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount of gain with respect to any Protected Partner exceed the amount of Built In Gain allocated to that Protected Partner.

The General Partner shall cause the Partnership and any other entity in which the Partnership has a direct or indirect interest to use, to the extent permitted under the Code, the “traditional method” under Regulations Section 1.704-3(b) for purposes of making allocations under Code Section 704(c) with respect to the Protected Property to take into account the book-tax disparities as of the effective time of the execution of this Agreement and with respect to any revaluation of such Protected Property pursuant to Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g), and 1.704-3(a)(6) with no “curative allocations,” “remedial allocations,” or adjustments to other items to offset the effect of the “ceiling rule.” For purposes of Code Sec. 704(c), the amount of the Section 704(c) built-in gain shall be the amount Built-In Gain with respect to the Protected Property as set forth on Exhibit C .
(e) Obligation of Partnership to Provide Debt Protection .
(i) The Partnership, during the Protection Period, shall make available to each Protected Partner the opportunity (a “ Guarantee Opportunity ”) to have such Protected Partner or its Indirect Owners guarantee Qualifying Debt in the form of the Contribution Agreement attached as Exhibit D to this Amendment. Any such Guarantee Opportunity will be made available to each Protected Partner in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the amount that such Protected Partner is currently able to guarantee and (ii) the amount necessary to defer taxation, which amount for each Protected Partner is listed in Exhibit B as the Aggregate Protected Amount Per Protected Partner. Each Protected Partner and its Indirect Owners may allocate such Guarantee Opportunity in any manner they choose. In the event that, during





the Protection Period, the Partnership refinances or otherwise no longer continues to maintain any Qualifying Debt with respect to which one or more Protected Partners (or their Indirect Owners) have executed a Contribution Agreement, the Partnership shall make available to each such Protected Partner or Indirect Owner a new Guarantee Opportunity to guarantee an amount of the new Qualifying Debt equal to the amount of the refinanced or repaid Qualifying Debt that was guaranteed by such Protected Partner or Indirect Owner immediately prior to the date of the refinancing or repayment pursuant to a Contribution Agreement. The Partnership shall provide notice of the proposed refinancing or repayment and related Guarantee Opportunity to each affected Protected Partner at least fifteen (15) Business Days in advance of the closing of such refinancing or repayment.
(ii) Except as provided in Section 12(e)(iii), any such Guaranty Opportunity shall only be in the form of a “bottom dollar guarantee” in that the lender for the guaranteed debt is required to pursue all other collateral and security for the guaranteed debt prior to seeking to collect on such a guarantee, and the lender shall have recourse against the guarantee only if, and solely to the extent that, the total amount recovered by the lender with respect to the guaranteed debt after the lender has exhausted its remedies as set forth above is less than the aggregate of the guaranteed amounts with respect to such guaranteed debt and the maximum aggregate liability of each Protected Partner for all guaranteed debt shall be limited to the amount actually guaranteed by such Partner;
(iii) In lieu of a guaranty in the form of a bottom dollar guaranty as required in Section 12(e)(i), the Protected Partner may elect to substitute a “deficit restoration obligation” agreement (a “ DRO ”), on the form attached as Exhibit E hereto.
(iv) Neither the Partnership nor the General Partner makes any representation or warranty to any Protected Partner or Indirect Owner that providing a guarantee entered into pursuant to this Section 12(e) will be respected for federal income tax purposes as providing such Protected Partner or Indirect Owner with an allocation of any such liability for purposes of Code Section 752 or as causing such Protected Partner or Indirect Owner to be “at risk” with respect to such liability for purposes of Code Section 465; provided, however, that the Partnership shall report debt so guaranteed as allocable for such purposes to the extent provided or permitted under the Code, the applicable Treasury Regulations, or other appropriate authority.
(f) Indemnification for Breaches of Section 12(d) and Section 12(e) .
(i) In the event that the Partnership breaches its obligations to a Protected Partner (or an Indirect Owner thereof) set forth in Section 12(d) or Section 12(e), each such Protected Partner shall receive from the Partnership as damages an amount equal to the aggregate federal, state and local income taxes incurred by such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) as a result of the gain recognized by such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) by reason of such breach plus an additional amount so that, after the payment by such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) of all taxes on amounts received pursuant to this Section 12(f), such Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) retains an amount equal to its total tax liability incurred as a result of such breach. The principles, tax rates and limitation on the amount of gain to be taken into account, which are set forth in Section 12(c)(i), shall also apply for purposes of determining the timing and amount of payment to be made to a Protected Partner pursuant to this Section 12(f). The Partnership shall be considered to have satisfied its obligations under Section 12(f), and therefore shall have no liability under this Section 12(f) for breach of such Section 12(e), if it offers a Protected Partner a Guarantee Opportunity in accordance with Section 12(e), and such Protected Partner fails to accept such Guarantee Opportunity. In no event shall the Partnership's liability under this Section 12(f) with respect to any Protected Partner for a breach of Section 12(e) exceed such Protected Partner's tax on





gain recognized with respect to such Protected Partner's Aggregate Protected Amount Per Protected Partner plus any additional amounts payable so that such Protected Partner retains an amount equal to the tax on any gain recognized with respect to such Aggregate Protected Amount Per Protected Partner.
(ii) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the sole and exclusive rights and remedies of any Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) for a breach or violation of the covenants set forth in Section 12(d) and Section 12(e) shall be a claim for damages against the Partnership, computed as set forth in Section 12(f), and no Protected Partner (or Indirect Owner thereof) shall be entitled to pursue a claim for specific performance of the covenants set forth in Section 12(d) and Section 12(e).
Section 13. Notice of Death and Sale Events . Each Protected Partner hereby covenants and agrees to provide, on its own behalf or through its legal representatives, the Partnership with written notice of any change in the direct or indirect ownership of Protected Units (including, but not limited to, the death of such Protected Partner or any Indirect Owner thereof) promptly after any such change in ownership.
Section 14. In-Kind Redemption of Series I Preferred Interests .
(a) Subject to a minimum $5,000,000 aggregate threshold for Series I-2 Preferred Interests being redeemed in any single in-kind redemption for one or more properties and the conditions and limitations set forth below, any holder of Series I-2 Preferred Units or group of such holders (“ In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners ”) may request that the Partnership redeem all, but not less than all, of their Series I-2 Preferred Units for an in-kind distribution of one or more properties identified by such In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners (“ Identified Property ”) which may include either (i) properties held by the Partnership, but only to the extent the distribution of such property is consented to in writing by the General Partner which consent may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion (“ Owned Properties ”), or (ii) properties acquired by the Partnership from third parties (“ New Properties ”). Subject to Section 14(e), such Owned Properties or New Properties shall have a net equity value equal to the Series I-2 Redemption Price of the Series I Preferred Units being redeemed (which value shall be 97.5% of the Series I-2 Redemption Price on such Series I-2 Preferred Units being redeemed in the case of New Properties), after taking into account such indebtedness as the Preferred Limited Partner Representative directs the Partnership to assume, incur or take “subject to” in the case of New Properties. The In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners shall appoint a single representative, in writing, in connection with a specific redemption pursuant to Section 14 to coordinate certain matters and exercise all of the rights of the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners set forth in Section 14; provided that if all In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners in connection with a specific redemption pursuant to Section 14 do not designate a Preferred Partner Representative in writing, the General Partner shall designate one of the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners as the Preferred Limited Partner Representative and such designation shall be conclusive for all purposes of this Agreement. The financing of an Identified Property prior to a redemption, the coordination of any guaranties or similar arrangements necessary to address the tax protection needs of the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners, and the negotiation, if necessary, of the purchase and sale contract relating to the properties, shall be arranged for and coordinated by the Preferred Partner Representative. The Partnership's only obligation with respect to the financing of any Owned or New Property shall be to reasonably cooperate with the Preferred Partner Representative to arrange for the incurrence, assumption or taking of title “subject to” such financing and neither the Partnership nor the General Partner shall be required to incur any costs, including but not limited to application fees, assumption fees, counsel fees, mortgage recording or transfer fees, or any personal liability (beyond its interest in the applicable New Properties) under any financing incurred or assumed in connection with the acquisition of any Owned or New Properties, except for liability as a result of the Partnership's own acts or omissions pursuant to any “carveouts” from non-recourse provisions, and except for liability to fund such down payments and equity contributions as may be necessary





to satisfy the loan to value and other underwriting requirements of the lender (which amount, subject to an increase of up to 10% of the Appraised Value of the property pursuant to Section 14(e), shall not be in excess of the Series I-2 Redemption Price of the Series I-2 Preferred Units being redeemed for Owned Properties or 97.5% of the Series I-2 Redemption Price of the Series I-2 Preferred Units being redeemed for New Properties). In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners may exercise this right at any time. The Partnership and the General Partner shall not be responsible for the tax treatment of the transaction to the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners. As a precondition to the Partnership's obligation to cooperate under this Section 14, the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners must acknowledge that neither the Partnership nor the General Partner or any of their Affiliates shall have any responsibility for any action, failure to act or breach of any agreement by the seller or any lender with respect to the New Properties so long as the Partnership, the General Partner or such Affiliates, as applicable, have used commercially reasonable efforts, to the extent they have the ability to do so, to prevent such action, failure to act or breach. The Partnership and the General Partner shall report any distribution of Identified Properties to In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners as tax-free for applicable income tax purposes to the extent provided or permitted under the Code, the applicable Treasury Regulations, or other appropriate authority.
(b) In connection with a redemption of Series I-2 Preferred Units in exchange for New Properties, the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners may request that the Partnership acquire stabilized properties equal to 97.5% of the Series I-2 Redemption Price of their Series I-2 Preferred Units and the Partnership shall have the reasonable approval rights, as described below, regarding the selection of any New Properties. The Preferred Partner Representative shall negotiate the purchase and sale contract relating to New Properties and will endeavor to negotiate a usual and customary agreement with the reasonable cooperation of the Partnership. In connection with the redemption of the applicable Series I-2 Preferred Units in exchange for the New Properties, the sales/redemption contract will be on terms and conditions no less favorable than those agreed to by the Preferred Partner Representative in connection with the purchase of the New Properties. In exercising its right to approve the purchase of New Properties pursuant to this (b), the General Partner may consider, among other matters, (i) whether the asset is stabilized and does not require capital expenditures; (ii) whether the property produces sufficient cash flow; (iii) whether there are unusual environmental or any other risks associated with the property; (iv) whether the property is insurable without undue expense; and (v) the terms of the proposed purchase and sale agreement. Following the acquisition of such properties by the Partnership (or a single member limited liability company wholly-owned by the Partnership), the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners shall have the right to require the Partnership to distribute such New Properties or limited liability company interests to them in redemption of the Series I-2 Preferred Units of the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners being redeemed (the “ Call Right ”) and the Partnership shall have the right to require the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners to acquire the New Properties or limited liability company interests in redemption of the Series I-2 Preferred Units of the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners being redeemed (the “ Put Right ”) based upon the greater of the then Appraised Value of the New Properties or the cost of acquiring the New Properties and of any improvements made by the Partnership to the New Properties. New Properties may be transferred by the Partnership to the applicable In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners at any time between the 90th and the 110th day following the acquisition of the subject New Properties upon not less than thirty (30) days written notice from the Partnership to the applicable In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners and the applicable In-Kind Preferred Partners may require the Partnership to transfer such New Properties to them pursuant to the Call Right any time between the 180th and the 200th day following the acquisition of the subject New Properties upon not less than thirty (30) days notice from the applicable In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners to the Partnership.
(c) In connection with a redemption of Series I-2 Preferred Units in exchange for Owned Properties, upon such a request by the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners to acquire an Owned





Property, the Partnership and the Preferred Partner Representative shall mutually agree on the value of the Owned property (the “ Agreed Value ”) and the Agreed Value of the Owned property shall be the Appraised Value of such property for the purposes of Section 14 of this Agreement.
(d) With respect to any individual In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partner, any redemption or series of redemptions pursuant to this Section 14 shall be for all, but not less than all, of such In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partner's Series I-2 Preferred Units.
(e) In connection with any in-kind redemption of Series I-2 Preferred Units pursuant to this Section 14, the Partnership may make cash payments to the In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners, or such In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners may make cash payments to the Partnership, as applicable, to the extent necessary to equate the value of the property received in the redemption to the Series I-2 Redemption Price of the Series I Preferred Units being redeemed; provided, however, that in each case the In-Kind-Redeeming Preferred Partner agrees that (i) such cash payments shall not cause the Partnership to breach any tax covenant with respect to unrealized gain set forth in Section 12(b)(i) and (ii) one hundred percent (100%) of the ownership interest in the Identified Property shall be distributed as part of the redemption transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no cash payments made under this (e) may exceed ten percent (10%) of the Appraised Value of the property.
(f) During the Partnership's ownership of a New Property, profit and loss from such property shall be allocated to all of the Partners, without special allocation, to In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners.
(g) In each case where a property is distributed to one or more In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners pursuant to this Section 14, the parties shall execute a usual and customary redemption/purchase and sale agreement, and, in the case of New Properties, such agreement shall be on terms and conditions no less favorable than the corresponding purchase agreement for the subject New Property. The General Partner and the Partnership shall cooperate in all reasonable respects in responding to requests for information from the Preferred Limited Partners that is in the possession of the General Partner or the Partnership or is reasonably obtainable by the General Partner or the Partnership and any Preferred Partner Representative so that Preferred Limited Partners who may intend to exercise the rights of In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners hereunder may reasonably evaluate the properties that they may elect to acquire pursuant to their rights under this Section 14 and all criteria that may be relevant thereto, including, without limitation, criteria that may have bearing on the tax attributes of such properties in the hands of such potential In-Kind Redeeming Preferred Partners after giving effect to such potential redemption
Section 15. Miscellaneous .
(a) The parties hereto agree that the holders of Series I Preferred Units shall not be deemed “Limited Partners” for the purpose of calculating the ownership level of limited partners as contemplated by Section 7.2 of the Partnership Agreement.
(b) For greater clarity, Article XIII of the Partnership Agreement shall not apply to the Series I Preferred Partnership or to their affiliates, successors and assigns or to their interests in the Partnership.
Section 16. Reaffirmation . Except as modified herein, all terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, which terms and conditions the General Partner hereby ratifies and affirms.

In Witness Whereof , this Amendment has been executed as of the date first above written.

Form of Contribution Agreement
CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

This Contribution Agreement (the " Agreement ") is entered into as of _______, 2011 (this “ Agreement ”), by LIBERTY PROPERTY TRUST, a Maryland real estate investment trust, as general partner (the “ General Partner ”) of LIBERTY PROPERTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Pennsylvania limited Partnership (the “ Partnership ”), for itself and on behalf of the limited partners of the Partnership, and the Partners (the " Protected Partners ") listed on Exhibit "A" hereto. The Protected Partners, the Partnership, and the General Partner are hereinafter referred to collectively as the " Parties ".
Whereas , the Partnership was organized and is operated in accordance with the terms of that Second Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership, as amended, (as amended, the “ Partnership Agreement ”),
Whereas , pursuant to the authority granted to the General Partner pursuant to Section 14.1(b) of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner desires to amend the Partnership Agreement to set forth certain additional obligations of the Protected Partners and the Protected Partners agree to make the additional cash contributions to the Partnership as described herein.





Now, therefore , in consideration of good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are acknowledged and intending to be legally bound hereby, the General Partner and the Protected Partners agree as follows:
RECITALS
Pursuant to that certain $350,000,000 4.75% Senior Notesof Liberty Property Limited Partnership due September 2020 (the “ Loan ”) ;
The Protected Partners are willing to make capital contributions to the Partnership to enable the Partnership to perform its obligations under the Loan on the terms hereinafter set forth;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Protected Partners hereby agree as follows:
1.      Capital Contributions to Satisfy Obligations .
(a)      If, for any reason, the Partnership shall be in default under the Loan and repayment of the obligations (the " Obligations ") of the Partnership evidenced by the Loan is due (such default and repayment obligation referred to hereinafter as a " Default ") and the Default can be cured by the payment of cash to the Lender, then each Protected Partner absolutely and unconditionally agrees to contribute (the " Contribution ") to the capital of the Partnership an amount of cash (or cash equivalents) equal to such Protected Partner's Allocable Share (as defined below) of the Shortfall Amount (as defined below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Protected Partner's maximum Contribution or other liability hereunder shall not be greater than the "Maximum Liability" listed opposite the Protected Partner's name on Exhibit A attached hereto, and under no circumstances shall a Protected Partner be obligated to pay an aggregate amount under this Contribution Agreement in excess of such Protected Partner's Maximum Liability. No demand shall be made under this Agreement for payment of the Shortfall Amount or any portion thereof until such time as the Lender shall have fully and completely exercised (and not waived) all rights, powers, and remedies it has with respect to the Partnership and has exhausted any and all remedies available to the Lender against the Partnership, including, without limitation, realizing upon the assets of the Partnership. The "Shortfall Amount" shall equal the excess of (i) Total Maximum Liability set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto or the amount of the outstanding principal and accrued interest owed on the Loan immediately prior to the Default, whichever is less; over (ii) the sum of all amounts recovered and the fair market value of any property obtained by Lender (including, without limitation, with respect to principal, interest, late fees, penalties and costs of collection), if any, from or on behalf of the Partnership after the Default in proceedings against the Partnership or any property of the Partnership. Each Protected Partner's " Allocable Share " of the Shortfall Amount shall be equal to the product of (x) the total Shortfall Amount, multiplied by (y) the " Shortfall Percentage " listed opposite such Protected Partner's name on Exhibit A attached hereto. The obligations of each Protected Partner hereunder are separate and distinct from the obligations of any other Protected Partner hereunder and are not joint and several.
(b)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Loan is contractually nonrecourse to the Partnership, then each Protected Partner's obligations to make a Contribution to the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement shall instead be a personal obligation and guarantee of such Protected Partner, pursuant to which such Protected Partner shall make a payment equal to the amount of the Contribution directly to the Lender, and any amount so paid by a Protected Partner to Lender shall be treated by such Protected Partner and the Partnership as a capital contribution by such Protected Partner to the Partnership. A Protected Partner's rights with respect to such Contribution shall be the same as with respect to any actual Contribution made hereunder.
(c)      Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, no Protected Partner shall have any obligation to make any payment pursuant to this Agreement to the extent that the Default occurs as a result of, or in connection with, "material uninsured damage" to any property of the Partnership caused by an earthquake, environmental loss or mold infestation. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "material uninsured damage" shall refer to damage to the property of the Partnership that is not compensated for by insurance and which is in an





amount greater than twenty percent (20%) of the original principal amount of the Loan.
2.      Term of Agreement . This Agreement, as well as all of the rights, duties, requirements and obligations created hereunder, shall expire and be of no further force or effect as of the date on which the Obligations under the Loan are satisfied in full.
3.      Third Party Beneficiaries . This Agreement is expressly for the benefit of the Partnership, the Partnership, the Lender, any Indemnified Party (as defined below), and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the "Beneficiaries"). The Parties intend that each of the Beneficiaries which is not a party to this Agreement shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement and that each Beneficiary shall have the right to enforce the obligations of each Protected Partner hereunder separately and independently of the Partnership, without any requirement whatsoever of resort by any Beneficiary to any other party, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. A Beneficiary's status as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement and the Beneficiary's right to enforce the obligations of the Protected Partners are material elements of this Agreement. Any payments to a Beneficiary hereunder shall for all purposes hereunder be treated as capital contributions by the Protected Partners to the Partnership, in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 1 above. The Partnership shall furnish a copy of this Agreement to each Beneficiary simultaneously with its execution by the Parties.
4.      Indemnification of Other Parties . Subject to the Lender's requirement to first exercise its rights against property of the Partnership as provided in Paragraph 1 hereof, if, for any reason, the General Partner, the Partnership, any other partner of the Partnership or any affiliate thereof (each, an "Indemnified Party") is required by Lender to make any payment to the Lender or any contribution to the Partnership with respect to the portion of the Loan for which a Contribution is required, or the Lender's ability to make a claim against any Protected Partner is reduced solely as a result of the Lender's concurrent status as an Indemnified Party (collectively, an "Indemnified Party Outlay"), each Protected Partner shall absolutely and unconditionally reimburse the Indemnified Party for, or pay to the Lender (as applicable), the lesser of (i) such Protected Partner's Allocable Share of the full amount of such Indemnified Party Outlay or (ii) the maximum Contribution amount such Protected Partner would have been obligated to contribute under Paragraph 1 hereof had such payment not been made by the Indemnified Party or had such reduction not occurred. Each Protected Partner shall reimburse the Indemnified Party, or make a payment to the Lender, as required by this Paragraph 4 within 60 days after receiving written notice of a Indemnified Party Outlay from the Indemnified Party, the Lender, the Partnership or the Partnership. Any payments to an Indemnified Party or Lender hereunder shall for all purposes hereunder be treated as capital contributions by each Protected Partner to the Partnership followed by the contribution of such amounts by the Partnership to the capital of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 1 above.
5.      Waivers . It is the intent of the Parties that each Protected Partner shall bear the ultimate economic responsibility for the payment of its Contribution to the extent set forth in Paragraph 1 above. Pursuant to such intent:
(a)      Except as set forth in Paragraph 1 above, the Protected Partners expressly waive any right (pursuant to any law, rule, arrangement or relationship) to compel the Lender or any subsequent holder of the Loan to sue or enforce payment thereof or pursue any other remedy in the power of the Partnership, the Lender, any subsequent holder of the Loan whatsoever, and failure of the Partnership, or the Lender or any subsequent holder of the Loan or to do so shall not exonerate, release or discharge the Protected Partners from their absolute unconditional and independent obligations under this Agreement. The Protected Partners hereby bind and obligate themselves and their permitted successors and assignees, severally on a pro rata basis, but not jointly, for the payment of the Contribution according to the terms hereof, whether or not the Obligations or any portion thereof are validly now or hereafter enforceable against the Partnership or any Indemnified Party or shall have been incurred in compliance with any of the conditions applicable thereto.
(b)      The Protected Partners expressly waive any right (pursuant to any law, rule, arrangement, or relationship, or otherwise) to compel any other person (including, but not limited to, the Partnership, or any other partner of the Partnership) to reimburse or indemnify the Protected Partners for all or any portion of amounts paid





by them pursuant to this Agreement.
(c)      Except as set forth in Paragraph 1 above, the Protected Partners expressly waive any defense that may arise by reason of:
(i)      the running of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection or performance of the Loan;
(ii)      the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of any of the Parties or any other or others;
(iii)      the Lender's election, in any proceeding by or against the Partnership, or any other party under the federal Bankruptcy Code;
(iv)      the application of section 1111(b)(2) of the federal Bankruptcy Code; or
(v)      any borrowing or grant of a security interest under section 364 of the federal Bankruptcy Code.
(d)      Except as set forth in Paragraph 1 above, the Protected Partners expressly waive:
(i)      presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of discharge, notice of acceptance of this Agreement or occurrence of, or any default in connection with, the Loan and indulgences and notices of any other kind whatsoever, including, without limitation, notice of the disposition of any collateral for the Loan;
(ii)      any defense based upon an election of remedies (including, if available, an election to proceed by non-judicial foreclosure) or other action or omission by the Lender or any other person or entity which destroys or otherwise impairs any indemnification, contribution or subrogation rights of the Protected Partners (including under California Civil Code sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433) or the right of the Protected Partners, if any, to proceed against the Partnership for reimbursement, or any combination thereof, whether by the operation of California Code of Civil Procedure section 580d or otherwise;
(iii)      any defense based upon any taking, modification or release of any collateral or guarantees for the Obligations, or any failure to create or perfect any security interest in, or the taking of or failure to take any other action with respect to, any collateral securing payment or performance of the Obligations;
(iv)      any rights or defenses based upon any right to offset or claimed offset by any of the Protected Partners against any indebtedness or obligation now or hereafter owed to any of the Protected Partners by the Partnership, or the Lender;
(v)      any and all benefits, rights or defenses which might otherwise be available to the Protected Partners under California Civil Code sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2820, or 2821, or under California Code of Civil Procedure sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726; and
(vi)      any rights or defenses based upon any rights or defenses of the Partnership to the Loan (including without limitation the failure or value of consideration, any statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction, and the insolvency of the Partnership), it being intended that the Protected Partners shall remain liable hereunder, to the extent set forth herein, notwithstanding any act, omission or thing which might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of any of the Protected Partners or the Partnership.
6.      Amendments of the Loan . Without in any manner limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Partnership, the General Partner, the Lender, or any subsequent holder of the Loan may, from time to time, without notice to or consent of the Protected Partners, agree to any amendment, waiver, modification or alteration of the Loan relating to the Partnership or the General Partner and their rights and obligations thereunder (including,





without limitation, renewal, waiver or variation of the maturity of the indebtedness pursuant to the Loan, increase or reduction of the rate of interest payable under the Loan, release, substitution or addition of any guarantor or endorser and acceptance or release of any security for such Obligations). The Loan may be extended one or more times without notice to or consent from the Protected Partners, and the Protected Partners shall remain at all times bound to their obligations under this Agreement, notwithstanding such extensions.
7.      Independent Obligations . The obligations of each of the Protected Partners hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Partnership, the General Partner and the other Protected Partners, and a separate action or actions may be brought by the Lender against any of the Protected Partners, whether or not actions are brought against the Partnership, the General Partner or the other Protected Partners, and whether or not the Partnership, the General Partner or the other Protected Partners are joined in any such action or actions against such Protected Partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Protected Partner shall be liable to the Lender for any loss, cost, damage, injury or expense sustained or incurred by the Lender as a result of another Protected Partner's failure to perform its obligations. Each Protected Partner expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution or any other claim which such Protected Partner may now or hereafter have against the Partnership, the General Partner or any other person directly or contingently liable for the payment or performance of the Loan (including, without limitation, any property collateralizing the Obligations), arising from the existence or performance of this Agreement. Each Protected Partner further agrees that it will not enter into any agreement providing, directly or indirectly, for contribution, reimbursement or repayment by the Partnership, the General Partner or any other person or entity on account of any payment by such Protected Partner and further agrees that any such agreement, whether existing or hereafter entered into would be void. In furtherance, and not in limitation, of the preceding waiver, each Protected Partner and the Partnership agree that (i) any payment to the Lender or any Indemnified Party by a Protected Partner pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed a contribution by each Protected Partner (as applicable) to the capital of the Partnership followed by a contribution by the Partnership of such amount to the capital of the Partnership, and any such payment shall not cause any Protected Partner to be a creditor of the Partnership, and (ii) no Protected Partner shall be entitled to, or shall receive, the return of or on any such capital contribution or receive any consideration in exchange therefor (including, but not limited to, any distribution from the Partnership with respect to such contribution or interests or units in the Partnership).
8.      Release of Guarantee: Substitution . In the event (a) a Protected Partner disposes of all of his, her or its entire direct or indirect interest in the Partnership, or otherwise desires to be released from this Agreement, at a time when the Loan is not in default or (b) a Protected Partner dies, then, upon request by such Protected Partner (or his or her estate), such Protected Partner (or his or her estate) shall be released from all liability hereunder (and his, her or its obligations under this Agreement shall be reduced to zero). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the occurrence of an event described in clause (a) or (b) above shall not release a Protected Partner (or its estate) from any payment obligation it incurred prior to the occurrence of such event. A Protected Partner (or his or her estate) may, at his, her or its option, elect to substitute another person who is related to the Protected Partner (or his her or its estate) (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.752-4(b)) to serve as a Protected Partner hereunder, provided that such person has a net worth at the time of such substitution of not less than the net worth of the existing Protected Partner hereunder at the time of such substitution and there is no default under the Loan at the time of such substitution. In the event of such substitution, the existing Protected Partner hereunder shall be released from all liability upon delivery to Lender of an agreement in the form of this Agreement executed by such substituted person.
9.      No Assignment . None of the Parties shall be entitled to assign their rights or obligations under this Agreement to any other person without the written consent of the other Parties.

10.      Entire Agreement . The Parties agree that this Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement between them with respect to the subject matter hereof and cannot be amended, modified or superseded, except by an agreement in writing signed by the Parties.

11.      Notices . Any notice given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed





given when delivered personally to the other Party, or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the addresses listed below each Party's signature hereto or to such other address with respect to which notice is subsequently provided in the manner set forth above.

12.      Applicable Law . This Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Pennsylvania without reference to its choice of law provisions.
13.      Condition of the Partnership . The Protected Partners are fully aware of the financial condition of the Partnership and are executing and delivering this Agreement based solely upon their own independent investigation of all matters pertinent hereto and are not relying in any manner upon any representation or statement of the Lender. Each Protected Partner hereby represents and warrants that it is in a position to obtain, and hereby assumes full responsibility for obtaining, any additional information concerning the Partnership's financial condition and any other matter pertinent hereto as it may desire, and it is not relying upon or expecting the Lender to furnish to it any information now or hereafter in the Lender's possession concerning the same or any other matter. By executing this Agreement, the Protected Partners knowingly accept the full range of risks encompassed within a contract of this type, which risks they acknowledge. The Protected Partners shall have no right to require the Lender to obtain or disclose any information with respect to the Obligations, the financial condition or character of the Partnership, the Partnership's ability to pay or perform the Obligations, the existence or nonexistence of any guaranties of all or any part of the Obligations, any action or non-action on the part of the Lender, the Partnership, or any other person, or any other matter, fact or occurrence whatsoever.
14.      Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in counterpart (including by facsimile) with the same effect as if all Parties had signed the same document. All such counterparts shall be deemed an original, shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Notwithstanding the limitations on additional Capital Contributions of Partners under Section 4.1 of the Partnership Agreement, if a Protected Partner has Deficit Balance in its Capital Account (as hereafter defined and after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all Partnership Years or portions thereof, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), such Protected Partner shall be obligated to make a contribution to the Partnership with respect to any such Deficit Balance in its Capital Account upon a liquidation of the Partnership in an amount equal to the lesser of: (i) such Deficit Balance in its Capital Account or (ii) such Protected Partner's Protected Amount. No Limited Partner shall have any right to become a Protected Partner, to increase its Protected Amount, or otherwise agree to restore any portion of any deficit that may exist in its Capital Account, without the express written consent of the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion. Any contribution required of a Partner under this Agreement shall be made on or before the later of (i) the end of the Partnership Year in which the interest is liquidated or (ii) the ninetieth (90th) day following the date of such liquidation. The proceeds of any contribution to the Partnership made by a Protected Partner with respect to a Deficit Balance in its Capital Account shall be treated as a Capital Contribution by such Protected Partner and the proceeds thereof shall be treated as assets of the Partnership for the purposes of the Partnership Agreement. The term “ Deficit Balance in its Capital Account ” shall mean the negative balance, if any, in such Partner's Capital Account computed in accordance with the rules regulating the calculation of capital account balances under Treasury Regulations § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) and the term “ Protected Partner's Protected Amount ” shall mean the excess, if any, of the amount set forth next to the Protected Partner's name on the signature page of this Agreement under the caption Protected Partner's Protected Amount over the Protected Partner's share of the nonrecourse indebtedness of the Partnership (as determined under Treasury Regulation § 1.752‑3).

2.      Restoration of Deficit Capital Accounts Upon a Liquidation of a Partner's Interest.     
If a Protected Partner's interest in the Partnership is "liquidated" within the meaning of §1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g) of the Regulations (other than in connection with a liquidation of the Partnership), such Protected Partner shall be required to contribute cash to the Partnership equal to the amount the Protected Partner would be required to contribute to the Partnership pursuant to Paragraph 1 of this Agreement. For this purpose, (i) the Protected Partner's Deficit Balance in its Capital Account shall be determined by taking into account all contributions, distributions, and allocations for the portion of the Partnership Fiscal Year ending on the date of the liquidation or redemption, and (ii) solely for purposes of determining such Protected Partner's Deficit Balance in its Capital Account, the General Partner shall





redetermine the Gross Asset Value of the Partnership's assets on such date based upon the principles set forth in § 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Regulations governing the revaluation of partners' capital account balances, and shall take into account the Protected Partner's allocable share of any unrealized gain or unrealized loss resulting from such redetermination in determining the Deficit Balance in its Capital Account. The amount of any payment required hereunder shall be due and payable on or before the later of (i) the end of the Partnership Fiscal Year in which the interest is liquidated or (ii) the ninetieth (90th) day following the date of such liquidation.
3.      Reaffirmation.
Except as modified herein, all terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, which terms and conditions the General Partner and each Protected Partner hereby ratifies and affirms.
4.      Transfer of a Protected Partner's interest in the Partnership.
From and after any time as a Protected Partner sells, assigns, exchanges or otherwise transfers their entire interest in the Partnership in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, regardless of whether the purchaser, assignee or transferee becomes a Substitute Limited Partner, such Protected Partner shall no longer have obligations under this Agreement which have not accrued  prior to such purchase, assignment, exchange or transfer.
5.      This Agreement can be modified only in writing duly executed by the General Partner and the Protected Partner to whom the modification relates.
6.      Any notices, communications and waivers under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be (i) delivered in person, (ii) mailed, postage prepaid, either by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or (iii) by overnight express carrier, addressed in each case as follows:
To Partnership:
500 Chesterfield Parkway, Malvern, PA 19355
To Protected Partner:
At the address noted on the signature page under the Protected Partner's name
or to any other address as to any of the parties hereto, as such party shall designate in a written notice to the other party hereto. All notices sent pursuant to the terms of this Paragraph shall be deemed received (i) if personally delivered, then on the date of delivery, (ii) if sent by overnight, express carrier, then on the next federal banking day immediately following the day sent, or (iii) if sent by registered or certified mail, then on the earlier of the third federal banking day following the day sent or when actually received.
7.      If any action or proceeding is instituted to enforce the terms hereof, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses of the prevailing party.
8.      Each Protected Partner certifies that he/she has full power, authority and right to execute and deliver this Agreement.
9.      This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute one agreement. It is understood and agreed that photostatic or facsimile signatures of the original signatures of this Agreement, and/or photostatic or facsimile copies of this Agreement fully executed, shall be deemed to be an original for all purposes.
In Witness Whereof , the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.
