PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
THE COMPANY
GENERAL
First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. and its subsidiary partnerships (the "Company") is a self-administered and fully integrated real estate company which owns, manages, acquires and develops industrial real estate. The Company completed its initial public offering in June 1994 (the "Initial Offering"). Upon consummation of the Initial Offering, the Company owned 226 bulk warehouse and light industrial properties which contained an aggregate of 17.4 million square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA"). As of December 31, 1997, the Company's portfolio consisted of 769 in-service bulk warehouse and light industrial properties containing approximately 56.6 million square feet of GLA located in 22 states.
The Company's interests in its properties and land parcels are held through partnerships controlled by the Company, including First Industrial, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"), of which the Company is the sole general partner, as well as, among others, First Industrial Financing Partnership, L.P. (the "Financing Partnership"), First Industrial Securities, L.P. (the "Securities Partnership"), First Industrial Mortgage Partnership, L.P. (the "Mortgage Partnership"), First Industrial Pennsylvania, L.P. (the "Pennsylvania Partnership"), First Industrial Harrisburg, L.P. (the "Harrisburg Partnership"), First Industrial Indianapolis, L.P. (the "Indianapolis Partnership") and First Industrial Development Services, L.P., the sole general partner of each is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the sole limited partner of each is the Operating Partnership.
The Company's initial interest in the Operating Partnership was obtained in connection with the Initial Offering in exchange for the contribution of substantially all of the net proceeds thereof. Immediately prior to the Initial Offering, the Operating Partnership, which had previously been controlled by members of The Shidler Group, owned 23 properties. In connection with the Initial Offering, (1) entities affiliated with First Industrial Chairman of the Board Jay H. Shidler and other members of The Shidler Group contributed to the Operating Partnership 30 additional properties and the assets of certain property management operations and received $3.2 million in cash and ownership of 2,306,399 shares of the Company's common stock and 830,017 limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership ("Units") having an aggregate value of $73.7 million (based on the initial public offering price of $23.50) and the assumption by the Operating Partnership of $107.4 million of indebtedness owed to affiliates of Jay H. Shidler and other members of The Shidler Group, (2) businesses of which First Industrial Executive Officers Michael G. Damone and Anthony Muscatello, and former Senior Regional Director Steven B. Hoyt were principals, contributed to the Operating Partnership 97 properties in the Detroit, central Pennsylvania and Minneapolis/St. Paul areas, respectively, and certain property management operations (such businesses, together with The Shidler Group, the "Contributing Businesses") and received $3.9 million in cash, 475,710 Units having a value of $11.2 million (based on the initial public offering price of $23.50) and the assumption of $131.4 million of indebtedness, (3) the Company and the Operating Partnership contributed a portion of the net proceeds of the Initial Offering to the Financing Partnership, (4) the Financing Partnership entered into a $300 million mortgage loan and (5) the Operating Partnership and the Financing Partnership acquired 76 additional properties from unaffiliated third parties.
First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. is a Maryland corporation organized on August 10, 1993, and is a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
The Company is continuing and expanding the midwestern industrial property business of The Shidler Group, a national organization with over 20 years experience in the industrial real estate business. The Company utilizes an operating approach which combines the effectiveness of locally based, or decentralized, property management, acquisition and development functions with the cost efficiencies of centralized acquisition and development support, capital markets expertise, asset management and fiscal control systems. At March 16, 1998, the Company had 298 employees.
The Company has grown and will seek to continue to grow through the acquisition of additional industrial properties and businesses, and through the development, primarily on a pre-leased basis, of build-to-suit properties.
BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND GROWTH PLANS
The Company's fundamental business objective is to maximize the total return to its stockholders through increases in per share distributions and increases in the value of the Company's properties and operations. The Company's growth plan includes the following elements:
o Internal Growth. The Company seeks to grow internally by (i) increasing revenues by renewing or re-leasing spaces subject to expiring leases at higher rental levels; (ii) increasing occupancy levels at properties where vacancies exist and maintaining occupancy elsewhere; (iii) controlling and minimizing operating expenses; and (iv) renovating existing properties.
o External Growth. The Company seeks to grow externally through (i) the acquisition of portfolios of industrial properties, industrial property businesses or individual properties which meet the Company's investment parameters; (ii) the development of primarily build-to-suit properties; and (iii) the expansion of its properties.
BUSINESS STRATEGIES
The Company utilizes the following seven strategies in connection with the operation of its business:
o Organization Strategy. The Company implements its decentralized property operations strategy through the use of experienced regional management teams and local property managers. Each operating region is headed by a senior regional director, who is a senior executive officer of, and has an equity interest in, the Company. The Company provides acquisition, development and financing assistance, asset management oversight and financial reporting functions from its headquarters in Chicago to support its regional operations. The Company believes the size of its portfolio enables it to realize operating efficiencies by spreading overhead over many properties and by negotiating quantity purchasing discounts.
o Market Strategy. The Company invests in markets where it can achieve size and economies of scale. Based on the size of its portfolios in its current markets, which as of December 31, 1997 averaged approximately 2.4 million square feet per market, and the experience of its senior regional directors, the Company believes that it has sufficient market presence and resources to compete effectively. As of December 31, 1997, the Company owned portfolios in the metropolitan areas of Atlanta, Georgia; Chicago, Illinois; Cincinnati, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio; Columbus, Ohio; Dallas, Texas; Dayton, Ohio; Denver, Colorado; Des Moines, Iowa; Detroit, Michigan; Grand Rapids, Michigan; Houston, Texas; Indianapolis, Indiana; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota; Nashville, Tennessee; New Orleans, Louisiana; Phoenix, Arizona; Salt Lake City, Utah; St. Louis, Missouri and Tampa, Florida, as well as the regional areas of Central Pennsylvania, Long Island, New York and New Jersey.
o Leasing and Marketing Strategy. The Company has an operational management strategy designed to enhance tenant satisfaction and portfolio performance. The Company pursues an active leasing strategy, which includes aggressively marketing available space, renewing existing leases at higher rents per square foot and seeking leases which provide for the pass-through of property-related expenses to the tenant. The Company also has local and national marketing programs which focus on the business and brokerage communities and national tenants.
o Acquisition Strategy. The Company's acquisition strategy is to acquire properties in its current markets to capitalize on local market expertise and maximize operating effectiveness and efficiencies and, as appropriate opportunities arise, acquire additional properties in other markets where it can achieve sufficient size and scale, as well as hire top-quality management.
o Development Strategy. Of the 769 properties in the Company's portfolio at December 31, 1997, 197 have been developed by its current or former management. The Company will continue to leverage the development capabilities of its management, many of whom are leading developers in their respective markets. In 1996, the Company formed a new subsidiary ("First Industrial Development Services, L.P.") to focus on development activities.
o Disposition Strategy. The Company continually evaluates local market conditions and property-related factors and will sell a property when it believes it is to the Company's advantage to do so.
o Financing Strategy. The Company believes that the size of its portfolio, the diversity of its properties and tenants and the financial strength of the Company allow it access to the public capital markets which are not generally available to smaller, less diversified property owners because of the portfolio size and diversity requirements.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
In 1997, the Company acquired or completed development of 399 properties and two expansions for a total estimated investment of approximately $912.6 million ($115.2 million of which was issued as partnership Units) to expand the in-service portfolio by 73 percent. The Company also sold ten in-service properties, one property under redevelopment and several parcels of land for approximately $33.7 million of gross proceeds. At December 31, 1997, the Company owned 769 in-service properties containing approximately 56.6 million square feet.
The Company improved its capital structure through the following activities:
o The Company legally defeased the $300.0 million mortgage loan (the "1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan") in April 1997 and subsequently paid off and retired the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan on January 2, 1998.
o The Company continued to pay down and retire secured debt and replace it with senior unsecured debt at lower interest rates.
o The Company issued senior unsecured debt, through the Operating Partnership, with staggered maturity dates. During 1997, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, issued $650.0 million of senior unsecured debt with maturity dates ranging from 2005 to 2027.
o The Company terminated its $200.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the "1996 Unsecured Acquisition Facility") and entered into a $300.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the "1997 Unsecured Acquisition Facility"). The 1997 Unsecured Acquisition Facility initially bears interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus .80% which is .20% less than the 1996 Unsecured Acquisition Facility for LIBOR borrowings.
o The Company issued preferred stock. On May 14, 1997, the Company issued 4,000,000 depositary shares, representing 1/100th of a share of the Company's 8 3/4%, $.01 par value, Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock, at an initial offering price of $25 per depositary share, which resulted in gross proceeds of $100.0 million. On June 6, 1997, the Company issued 2,000,000 depositary shares, representing 1/100th of a share of the Company's 85/8%, $.01 par value, Series C Preferred Stock, at an initial offering price of $25 per depositary share which resulted in gross proceeds of $50.0 million.
o The Company issued common stock and the Operating Partnership issued Units. The Company issued 637,440 shares of $.01 par value common stock on September 16, 1997, at an initial offering price of $31.375 per share which resulted in gross proceeds of $20.0 million. On October 15, 1997, the Company issued 5,400,000 shares of $.01 par value common stock at an initial offering price of $33.40 per share which resulted in gross proceeds of $180.4 million. In 1997, the Operating Partnership issued, in the aggregate, Units valued at approximately $115.2 million.
During the period January 1, 1998 through March 16, 1998, the Company purchased 56 properties containing an aggregate of 2.9 million square feet of GLA for approximately $103.4 million, or $36.20 per square foot. The purchase price consisted of approximately $101.5 million cash and Units valued at approximately $1.9 million.
On January 27, 1998, the Company registered approximately $789.2 million of common stock, preferred stock and depositary shares and $400.0 million of debt securities.
On February 4, 1998, the Company issued 5,000,000 Depositary shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of the Company's 7.95%, $.01 par value, Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock at an initial offering price of $25 per Depositary Share, which resulted in gross proceeds of $125.0 million.
On March 18, 1998, the Company issued 3,000,000 Depositary shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of the Company's 7.90%, $.01 par value, Series E Cumulative Preferred Stock at an initial offering price of $25 per Depositary Share, which resulted in gross proceeds of $75.0 million.
FUTURE ACQUISITIONS AND DEVELOPMENT
The Company has an active acquisition and development program through which it is continually engaged in identifying, negotiating and consummating portfolio and individual industrial property acquisitions and developments. As a result, the Company is currently engaged in negotiations relating to the possible acquisitions and developments of a number of properties located in the Company's current markets and other markets into which the Company may expand.
When evaluating potential acquisitions and development, the Company
will consider such factors as: (i) the geographic area and type of property;
(ii) the location, construction quality, condition and design of the property;
(iii) the potential for capital appreciation of the property; (iv) the ability
of the Company to improve the property's performance through renovation; (v) the
terms of tenant leases, including the potential for rent increases; (vi) the
potential for economic growth and the tax and regulatory environment of the area
in which the property is located; (vii) the potential for expansion of the
physical layout of the property and/or the number of sites; (viii) the occupancy
and demand by tenants for properties of a similar type in the vicinity; and (ix)
competition from existing properties and the potential for the construction of
new properties in the area.
INDUSTRY
Industrial properties are typically used for the design, assembly, packaging, storage and distribution of goods and/or the provision of services. As a result, the demand for industrial space in the United States is related to the level of economic output. Historically, occupancy rates for industrial property in the United States have been higher than those for other types of commercial property. The Company believes that the higher occupancy rate in the industrial property sector is a result of the construction-on-demand nature of, and the comparatively short development time required for, industrial property. The following table summarizes the occupancy rates by region for industrial properties for the past five years:

ITEM 2. THE PROPERTIES
GENERAL
At December 31, 1997, First Industrial owned 769 in-service properties containing approximately 56.6 million square feet of GLA in 22 states, with a diverse base of more than 2,500 tenants engaged in a wide variety of businesses, including manufacturing, retailing, wholesale trade, distribution and professional services. The properties are generally located in business parks which have convenient access to interstate highways and rail and air transportation. The median age of the properties as of December 31, 1997 was approximately 13 years.
The Company classifies its properties into two industrial categories:
bulk warehouse and light industrial. The Company's bulk warehouse properties are
generally used for bulk storage of materials and manufactured goods and its
light industrial properties are generally used for the design, assembly,
packaging and distribution of goods and, in some cases, the provision of
services. Each of the properties is wholly owned by the Company. The following
table summarizes certain information as of December 31, 1997 with respect to the
Company's properties. Information in the table excludes properties under
development at December 31, 1997.

TENANT AND LEASE INFORMATION
The Company has a diverse base of more than 2,500 tenants engaged in a wide variety of businesses including manufacturing, retail, wholesale trade, distribution and professional services. Most leases have an initial term of between three and five years and provide for periodic rental increases that are either fixed or based on changes in the Consumer Price Index. Industrial tenants typically have net or semi-net leases and pay as additional rent their percentage of the property's operating costs, including the costs of common area maintenance, property taxes and insurance. As of December 31, 1997, approximately 96% of the GLA of the properties was leased, and no single tenant or group of related tenants accounted for more than 1.1% of the Company's rent revenues, nor did any single tenant or group of related tenants occupy more than 1.8%, of the Company's total GLA as of December 31, 1997.
The following table shows scheduled lease expirations for all leases for the Company's properties as of December 31, 1997.

MORTGAGE LOANS/PREFERRED STOCK GUARANTEE
Contemporaneously with the consummation of the Initial Offering, the Company, through the Financing Partnership, entered into a $300.0 million mortgage loan. On April 4, 1997, the Company purchased U.S. Government securities as substitute collateral to execute a legal defeasance of the $300.0 million mortgage loan (the "1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan"). Upon execution of the legal defeasance, 180 of the 195 properties collateralizing the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan were released, leaving 15 properties and the U.S. Government securities as collateral. On January 2, 1998, the Company used the gross proceeds from the maturity of the U.S. Government securities to pay off and retire the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan. Due to the retirement of the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan, the remaining collateral of 15 properties was released on January 2, 1998.
In 1995, the Company issued 1,650,000 shares of 9.5%, $.01 par value, Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") at an initial offering price of $25 per share. The Series A Preferred Stock is not redeemable prior to November 17, 2000. On or after November 17, 2000, the Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable for cash at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at $25 per share, or $41.3 million in the aggregate, plus dividends accrued and unpaid to the redemption date. The Series A Preferred Stock has no stated maturity and is not convertible into any other securities of the Company.
The payment of dividends on, and payments on liquidation or redemption of, the Series A Preferred Stock is guaranteed by the Securities Partnership ("the Guarantor") which holds 19 properties pursuant to a Guarantee and Payment Agreement (the "Guarantee Agreement"). The Series A Preferred Stock is the only class of securities of the Company which has the benefit of such guarantee. To the extent the Company fails to make any payment of dividends or pay any portion of the liquidation preference on or the redemption price of any shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, the Guarantor will be obligated to pay an amount to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock equal to any such shortfall.
On December 29, 1995, the Company, through the Mortgage Partnership, entered into a $40.2 million mortgage loan (the "1995 Mortgage Loan"). In the first quarter of 1996, the Company, through the Mortgage Partnership, made a one-time paydown of $.2 million on the 1995 Mortgage Loan which decreased the outstanding balance to $40.0 million. The 1995 Mortgage Loan matures on January 11, 2026. The 1995 Mortgage Loan is collateralized by first mortgage liens on 23 properties owned by the Mortgage Partnership.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with "Selected Financial and Operating Data" and the historical Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996
At December 31, 1997, the Company owned 769 in-service properties containing approximately 56.6 million square feet of GLA, compared to 379 in-service properties with approximately 32.7 million square feet of GLA at December 31, 1996. During 1997, the Company acquired 389 properties containing approximately 22.9 million square feet of GLA, completed development of ten properties and expansions of two properties totaling 1.7 million square feet of GLA and sold ten in-service properties totaling .8 million square feet of GLA, one property held for redevelopment and several land parcels.
Rental income and tenant recoveries and other income increased in 1997 over 1996 by $70.4 million or 50.2% due primarily to the properties acquired after December 31, 1995. Revenues from properties owned prior to January 1, 1996 increased in 1997 over 1996 by $2.1 million or 2.0% due primarily to increased rental rates upon renewal or replacement of tenant leases. Interest income-defeasance in 1997 represents interest income earned on U.S. Government securities and cash proceeds from such securities upon maturity that were pledged as collateral to legally defease the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan.
Property expenses, which include real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other expenses, increased in 1997 over 1996 by $20.5 million or 52.4% due primarily to properties acquired after December 31, 1995. For properties owned prior to January 1, 1996, property expenses remained relatively unchanged.
General and administrative expense increased in 1997 over 1996 by $2.2 million due primarily to the additional expenses associated with managing the Company's growing operations including additional professional fees relating to additional properties owned and personnel to manage and expand the Company's business.
Interest expense increased by $20.9 million for the year ended December 31, 1997 compared to the year ended December 31, 1996 due primarily to a higher average debt balance to fund the purchase of U.S. Government securities to legally defease the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan and to fund the acquisition and development of additional properties.
Depreciation and other amortization increased in 1997 over 1996 by $11.5 million due primarily to the additional depreciation and amortization related to the properties acquired and placed in service after December 31, 1995.
The $1.4 million gain on the disposition of interest rate protection agreements represents the sale of the Company's interest rate protection agreements in April 1997. The Company entered into a new interest rate protection agreement at a cost of approximately $.2 million with a notional value of $300 million which expired at the end of 1997.
The $5.0 million gain on sales of properties resulted from the sale of ten in-service properties, one property under redevelopment and several parcels of land. Gross proceeds for these property sales totaled approximately $33.7 million.
The $14.1 million extraordinary loss in 1997 represents the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs, prepayment fees, legal fees and other costs incurred to terminate various mortgage loans, an unsecured loan and a revolving line of credit and the commitment to retire the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan.
COMPARISON OF YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995
At December 31, 1996, the Company owned 379 in-service properties containing approximately 32.7 million square feet of GLA, compared to 271 in-service properties with approximately 22.6 million square feet of GLA at December 31, 1995. During 1996, the Company acquired 112 properties containing approximately 10.4 million square
feet of GLA, completed development of two properties totaling .2 million square feet of GLA and sold six properties totaling .4 million square feet of GLA.
Rental income and tenant recoveries and other income increased in 1996 over 1995 by $33.6 million or 31.5% due primarily to the properties acquired after December 31, 1994. Revenues from properties owned prior to January 1, 1995 increased in 1996 over 1995 by $3.2 million or 3.3% due primarily to increased rental rates upon renewal or replacement of tenant leases and additional amounts charged to tenants for additional property expenses incurred in 1996.
Property expenses, which include real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other expenses, increased in 1996 over 1995 by $10.9 million or 38.6% due primarily to properties acquired after December 31, 1994. For properties owned prior to January 1, 1995, property expenses increased in 1996 over 1995 by $1.2 million or 4.8% due to additional snow removal expenses incurred in the Minneapolis and Harrisburg metropolitan areas, additional repair and maintenance expenses incurred in the Chicago metropolitan area and increased real estate taxes in the majority of the Company's geographical markets.
General and administrative expense increased in 1996 over 1995 by $.9 million due primarily to the additional expenses associated with managing the Company's growing operations, including additional professional fees relating to additional properties owned and personnel to manage and expand the Company's business.
Interest expense increased by $.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 compared to the year ended December 31, 1995 due primarily to a higher average outstanding debt balance to fund the acquisition of additional properties, however, the resulting impact on interest expense was partially offset by lower interest rates in 1996 on the Company's $150 million secured revolving line of credit.
Depreciation and amortization increased in 1996 over 1995 by $5.8 million due primarily to the additional depreciation and amortization related to the properties acquired after December 31, 1994.
The $6.4 million loss from disposition of interest rate protection agreement in 1995 resulted from the replacement of the Company's interest rate protection agreement entered into in connection with the 1994 Mortgage Loan with new interest rate protection agreements. Approximately $6.3 million of the loss is a non-cash loss, representing the difference between the unamortized cost of the replaced interest rate protection agreement and the cost of the new interest rate agreements.
The $4.3 million gain on sales of properties in 1996 resulted from the sale of six properties. Gross proceeds for these property sales totaled approximately $15.0 million.
The $2.3 million extraordinary loss in 1996 represents the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs, a prepayment fee, legal fees and other costs that were incurred to terminate various mortgage loans and various revolving lines of credit.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 1997, the Company's unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $13.2 million and restricted cash totaled $313.1 million. Included in restricted cash are $3.9 million of cash reserves required to be set aside under the 1995 Mortgage Loan for payments of security deposit refunds, tenant improvements, capital expenditures, interest, real estate taxes and insurance. The portion of cash reserves relating to security deposit refunds is adjusted as tenants turn over. The portion of cash reserves relating to payments for tenant improvements, capital expenditures, interest, real estate taxes and insurance is established monthly, distributed to the Company as such expenditures are made and is replenished to a level adequate to make the next periodic payment of such expenditures. Also included in restricted cash are $306.0 million of reserves that were used to defease the Company's $300.0 million mortgage loan (the "1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan"). On January 2, 1998, $306.0 million of this cash reserve was used to pay off and retire the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan and to fund a $6.0 million prepayment fee. The remaining $3.2 million of reserves was returned to the Company in January 1998.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $102.6 million for the year ended December 31, 1997 compared to $62.6 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 and $38.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1995. The increases are primarily due to increased net operating income (which is defined as total revenues less property related expenses) as discussed in the "Results of Operations" above.
Net cash used in investing activities was $805.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1997 compared to $240.6 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 and $84.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1995. The majority of the cash used in investing activities was for the acquisition of new properties offset by proceeds from the sales of real estate.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 1997 increased to $708.5 million from $176.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1996, reflecting the issuance of 6.0 million shares of common stock, 6.0 million depositary shares representing .06 million shares of preferred stock and $650.0 million of senior unsecured debt offset, in part, by increased distributions to the common stockholders and First Industrial L.P. unitholders (the "Unitholders") and dividends to the preferred stockholders due to the issuance of additional preferred stock. Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 1996 was $176.7 million, compared to $45.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1995, reflecting the issuance of 10.9 million shares of common stock offset in part by increased distributions to the common stockholders and Unitholders, dividends to the preferred stockholders and a net pay down on the Company's $150.0 million revolving line of credit.
Funds from operations increased by $31.8 million or 52.6% in 1997 compared to 1996 and increased by $19.1 million or 46.2% in 1996 compared to 1995 as a result of the factors discussed in the analysis of operating results above. Management considers funds from operations to be one financial measure of the operating performance of an equity REIT that provides a relevant basis for comparison among REITs and it is presented to assist investors in analyzing the performance of the Company. In accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts' definition of funds from operations, the Company calculates funds from operations to be equal to net income, excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and interest rate protection agreements, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Funds from operations does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends and distributions. Funds from operations should not be considered as a substitute for net income as a measure of results of operations or for cash flow from operating activities (calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of liquidity. Funds from operations as calculated by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled but differently calculated measures of other REITs.
The ratio of earnings to fixed charges and preferred stock dividends was 1.79 for the year ended December 31, 1997 compared to 1.88 for the year ended December 31, 1996 and 1.56 for the year ended December 31, 1995. The decrease in the earnings to fixed charges and preferred stock dividends between fiscal years 1997 and 1996 is primarily due to additional interest expense and preferred stock dividends incurred in fiscal year 1997 from additional debt and preferred stock issued to fund property acquisitions and to legally defease the 1994 Mortgage Loan, which is partially offset by higher net operating income from the property acquisitions as discussed in "Results of Operations" above. The increase in the earnings to fixed charges and preferred stock dividends between fiscal year 1996 and 1995 is primarily due to increased net operating income as discussed in "Results of Operations" above.
In 1997, the Company acquired 389 industrial properties comprising approximately 22.9 million square feet of GLA for a total purchase price of approximately $862.4 million, completed the development of ten properties and expansions of two properties comprising approximately 1.7 million square feet of GLA at a cost of approximately $50.2 million and sold ten in-service properties comprising approximately .8 million square feet of GLA, one property held for redevelopment and several land parcels for gross proceeds of $33.7 million.

The Rights become exercisable only if a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (an "Acquiring Person") acquires, or obtains the right to acquire, beneficial ownership of Common Stock or other voting securities ("Voting Stock") that have 15% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Voting Stock, or if an Acquiring Person commences or makes an announcement of an intention to commence a tender offer or exchange offer to acquire beneficial ownership of Voting Stock that have 15% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Voting Stock. The Rights will expire on October 19, 2007, unless redeemed earlier by the Company at $.001 per Right, or exchanged by the Company at an exchange ratio of one share of Common Stock per Right.
In the event that a person becomes an Acquiring Person, each holder of
a Right, other than the Acquiring Person, is entitled to receive, upon exercise,
(1) Common Stock having a value equal to two times the Purchase Price of the
Right or (2) common stock of the acquiring company having a value equal to two
times the Purchase Price of the Right.

In the event of liquidation, the holder of the Junior Preferred Stock is entitled to receive a preferred liquidation payment per share of $1.00 (plus accrued and unpaid dividends) or, if greater, an amount equal to 100 times the payment to be made per share of Common Stock, subject to certain adjustments.

share) on its Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C

The Company has considered its short-term (one year or less) liquidity needs and the adequacy of its estimated cash flow from operations and other expected liquidity sources to meet these needs. The Company believes that its principal short-term liquidity needs are to fund normal recurring expenses, debt service requirements and the minimum distribution required to maintain the Company's REIT qualification under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company anticipates that these needs will be met with cash flows provided by operating activities.
The Company expects to meet long-term (greater than one year) liquidity requirements such as property acquisitions, scheduled debt maturities, major renovations, expansions and other non-recurring capital improvements through long-term unsecured indebtedness and the issuance of additional equity securities. On January 27, 1998, the Company registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), approximately $789.2 million
of common stock, preferred stock and depository shares and $400.0 million of debt securities. As of March 18, 1998, $589.2 million of common stock, preferred stock and depositary shares and $400.0 million of debt securities remained registered under the Securities Act and were unissued. The Company may finance the acquisition or development of additional properties through borrowings under the 1997 Unsecured Acquisition Facility. At December 31, 1997, borrowings under the 1997 Unsecured Acquisition Facility bore interest at a weighted average interest rate of 6.77%. As of March 18, 1998, the Company had $229.6 million available in additional borrowings under the 1997 Unsecured Acquisition Facility. While the Company may sell properties if property or market conditions make it desirable, the Company does not expect to sell assets in the foreseeable future to satisfy its liquidity requirements.
ENVIRONMENTAL
The Company incurred environmental costs of $.3 million and $.1 million in 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Company estimates 1998 costs of approximately $.2 million. The Company estimates that the aggregate cost which needs to be expended in 1998 and beyond with regard to currently identified environmental issues will not exceed approximately $.6 million, a substantial amount of which will be the primary responsibility of the tenant, the seller to the Company or another responsible party. This estimate was determined by a third party evaluation.
YEAR 2000 CONCERNS
The Company believes, based on discussions with its current systems' vendor, that its software applications and operational programs will properly recognize calendar dates beginning in the Year 2000. In addition, the Company is discussing with its major vendors and customers the possibility of any interface difficulties relating to the Year 2000 which may affect the Company. To date, no significant concerns have been identified; however, there can be no assurance that there will not be any Year 2000-related operating problems or expenses that will arise with the Company's computer systems and software or in connection with the Company's interface with the computer systems and software of its vendors and customers.
OTHER
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This statement, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997, requires the Company to report components of comprehensive income in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined by Concepts Statement No. 6, " Elements of Financial Statements" as the change in the equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not yet determined its comprehensive income.
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, " Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." This statement, effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 1997, requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Generally, financial information is required to be reported on the basis that it is used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The Company has not yet determined the impact of this statement on its financial statements.
INFLATION
For the last several years, inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company because of the relatively low inflation rates in the Company's markets of operation. Most of the Company's leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. In addition, many of the outstanding leases expire within five years which may enable the Company to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base rentals if rents of existing leases are below the then-existing market rate.

FIRST INDUSTRIAL REALTY TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR PER SHARE DATA)
1. ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF COMPANY
First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. was organized in the state of Maryland on August 10, 1993. First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. is a real estate investment trust ("REIT") as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries (as discussed below) (the "Company") is continuing and expanding the midwestern industrial property business of The Shidler Group and the properties and businesses contributed by three other contributing businesses (the "Contributing Businesses").
The Company began operations on July 1, 1994. The Company's operations are conducted primarily through First Industrial, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") of which the Company is the sole general partner. As of December 31, 1997, the Company owned 769 in-service properties located in 22 states, containing an aggregate of approximately 56.6 million square feet (unaudited) of gross leasable area ("GLA"). Of the 769 properties owned by the Company, 193 are held by First Industrial Financing Partnership, L.P. (the "Financing Partnership"), 522 are held by the Operating Partnership, six are held by First Industrial Pennsylvania, L.P. (the "Pennsylvania Partnership"), five are held by First Industrial Harrisburg, L.P. (the "Harrisburg Partnership"), 19 are held by First Industrial Securities, L.P. (the "Securities Partnership"), 23 are held by First Industrial Mortgage Partnership, L.P. (the "Mortgage Partnership") and one is held by First Industrial Indianapolis, L.P. (the "Indianapolis Partnership").
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. is the sole general partner of the
Operating Partnership, with an approximate 86.0% ownership interest at December
31, 1997. Minority interest at December 31, 1997, represents the approximately
14.0% aggregate partnership interest in the Operating Partnership held by the
limited partners thereof. First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. is the sole
stockholder of First Industrial Finance Corporation, First Industrial
Pennsylvania Corporation, First Industrial Harrisburg Corporation, First
Industrial Securities Corporation, First Industrial Mortgage Corporation, First
Industrial Indianapolis Corporation and FI Development Services Corporation,
which are the sole general partners of the Financing Partnership, the
Pennsylvania Partnership, the Harrisburg Partnership, the Securities
Partnership, the Mortgage Partnership, the Indianapolis Partnership, and First
Industrial Development Services, L.P., respectively. The Operating Partnership
is the sole limited partner of the Financing Partnership, the Pennsylvania
Partnership, the Harrisburg Partnership, the Securities Partnership, the
Mortgage Partnership, the Indianapolis Partnership, and First Industrial
Development Services, L.P. The Operating Partnership is also the sole member of
FR Development Services, LLC, and the majority stockholder of First Industrial
Enterprises of Michigan and FR Development Services, Inc. The consolidated
financial statements of the Company at December 31, 1997 and 1996 and for each
of the three years ended December 31, 1997 include the accounts and operations
of the Company and its subsidiaries.
All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In order to conform with generally accepted accounting principles, management, in preparation of the Company's financial statements, is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR PER SHARE DATA)
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these investments.
Investment in Real Estate and Depreciation:
Purchase accounting has been applied when ownership interests in properties were acquired for cash. The historical cost basis of properties has been carried over when the Contributing Businesses' ownership interests were exchanged for Operating Partnership units on July 1, 1994 and purchase accounting has been used for all other properties that were subsequently acquired for Operating Partnership units.
The Company reviews its properties on a quarterly basis for impairment
and provides a provision if impairments are determined. First, to determine if
impairment may exist, the Company reviews its properties and identifies those
which have had either an event of change or event of circumstances warranting
further assessment of recoverability. Then, the Company estimates the fair value
of those properties on an individual basis by capitalizing the expected net
operating income.
Such amounts are then compared to the property's depreciated cost to determine
whether an impairment exists.
Interest expense, real estate taxes and other directly related expenses incurred during construction periods are capitalized and depreciated commencing with the date placed in service, on the same basis as the related assets. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method based on the following useful lives:
Years
----------
Buildings and Improvements.............. 31.5 to 40
Land Improvements....................... 15
Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment....... 5 to 10
|
Construction expenditures for tenant improvements and leasing commissions are capitalized and amortized over the terms of each specific lease. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred. Expenditures for improvements are capitalized.
When assets are sold or retired, their costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts with the resulting gains or losses reflected in net income or loss.
Deferred Financing Costs:
Deferred financing costs include fees and costs incurred to obtain long-term financing. These fees and costs are being amortized over the terms of the respective loans. Accumulated amortization of deferred financing costs was $1,672 and $4,549 at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Unamortized deferred financing fees are written-off when debt is retired before the maturity date (see Note 9).

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
Revenue Recognition:
Rental income is recognized on a straight-line method under which contractual rent increases are recognized evenly over the lease term. Tenant recovery income includes payments from tenants for taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses and is recognized as revenues in the same period the related expenses are incurred by the Company.
The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts against the portion of tenant accounts receivable which is estimated to be uncollectible. Accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1,450 and $600 as of December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively.
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 95% of its REIT taxable income, as defined in the Code, to its stockholders and satisfies certain other requirements.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
See Note 4 for the fair values of the mortgage loans payable, acquisition facilities payable, senior unsecured debt and interest rate protection agreements.
Derivative Financial Instruments:
The Company's interest rate protection agreements (the "Agreements") are used to limit the interest rate on the Company's $300,000 mortgage loan and fix the interest rate on anticipated offerings of senior unsecured debt. Receipts or payments resulting from the Agreements used to limit the interest rate on the Company's $300,000 mortgage loan are recognized as adjustments to interest expense. In the event that the Company terminates these Agreements, the Company would recognize a gain (loss) from the disposition of the Agreements equal to the amount of cash received or paid at termination less the carrying value of the Agreements on the Company's balance sheet. Receipts or payments resulting from the settlement of Agreements used to fix the interest rate on anticipated offerings of senior unsecured debt are amortized over the life of the senior unsecured debt that the Agreements were used to hedge as an adjustment to interest expense using the effective interest method (or the straight line method if this method is not materially different from the effective interest method). The credit risks associated with the Agreements are controlled through the evaluation and monitoring of the creditworthiness of the counterparty. In the event that the counterparty fails to meet the terms of the Agreements, the Company's exposure is limited to the current value of the interest rate differential, not the notional amount, and the Company's carrying value of the Agreements on the balance sheet. The Agreements have been executed with creditworthy financial institutions. As such, the Company considers the risk of nonperformance to be remote.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This statement, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997, requires the Company to report components of comprehensive income in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined by Concepts Statement No. 6, " Elements of Financial Statements" as the change in the equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not yet determined its comprehensive income.
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, " Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." This statement, effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 1997, requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Generally, financial information is required to be reported on the basis that it is used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The Company has not yet determined the impact of this statement on its financial statements.

Mortgage Loans:
On June 30, 1994, the Company, through the Financing Partnership, entered into a $300,000 mortgage loan (the "1994 Mortgage Loan"). On April 4, 1997, the Company purchased U.S. Government securities as substitute collateral to execute a legal defeasance of the $300,000 mortgage loan (the "1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan") (See Note 9). Upon the execution of the legal defeasance, 180 of the 195 properties collateralizing the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan were released leaving 15 properties and the U.S. Government securities as collateral. On January 2, 1998, the Company used the gross proceeds from the maturity of the U.S. Government securities to pay off and retire the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan. Due to the retirement of the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan, the remaining 15 properties were released on January 2, 1998. The 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan provided for interest only payments at a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.40% which such interest rate had been limited to 7.2% from June 30, 1994 through June 30, 1995 through the use of the 1994 Interest Rate Protection Agreement (hereinafter defined). From July 1, 1995 through May 15, 1997, the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan's interest rate had been effectively fixed at the rate of 6.97% through the use of the 1995 Interest Rate Protection Agreements (hereinafter defined). From May 16, 1997 through December 31, 1997, the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan's interest rate had been limited to 7.2% through the use of the 1997 Interest Rate Protection Agreement (hereinafter defined).
Under the terms of the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan, certain cash reserves were required to be and had been set aside for payment of tenant improvements, capital expenditures, interest, real estate taxes, insurance and potential environmental costs as well as certain other cash reserves to pay off and retire the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan. The amount of cash reserves for payment of potential environmental costs was determined by the lender and was established at the closing of the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan. The amounts included in the cash reserves relating to payments of tenant improvements, capital expenditures, interest, real estate taxes and insurance were determined by the lender and approximated the next periodic payment of such items. At December 31, 1997 and 1996, these reserves totaled $310,943 and $10,223, respectively, and are included in Restricted Cash. Such cash reserves were invested in a money market fund at December 31, 1997. The maturity of these investments is one day; accordingly, cost approximates fair market value. On January 2, 1998, $300,000 of these cash reserves were used to pay down and retire the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan, $6,000 of these cash reserves were used to pay a prepayment fee on the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan and the remaining cash reserves were returned to the Company.
On December 29, 1995, the Company, through the Mortgage Partnership, entered into a $40,200 mortgage loan (the"1995 Mortgage Loan"). In the first quarter of 1996, the Company made a one time paydown of $200 on the 1995 Mortgage Loan which decreased the outstanding balance to $40,000. The 1995 Mortgage Loan matures on January 11, 2026 and provides for interest only payments through January 11, 1998, after which monthly principal and interest payments are required based on a 28-year amortization schedule. The interest rate under the 1995 Mortgage Loan is fixed at 7.22% per annum through January 11, 2003. After January 11, 2003, the interest rate adjusts through a predetermined formula based on the applicable Treasury rate. The 1995 Mortgage Loan is collateralized by 23 properties held by the Mortgage Partnership. The 1995 Mortgage Loan may be prepaid after January 11, 2003.
Under the terms of the 1995 Mortgage Loan, certain cash reserves are required to be and have been set aside for refunds of security deposits and payments of capital expenditures, interest, real estate taxes and insurance. The amount of cash reserves segregated for security deposits is adjusted as tenants turn over. The amounts included in the cash reserves relating to payments of capital expenditures, interest, real estate taxes and insurance were determined by the lender and approximate the next periodic payment of such items. At December 31, 1997 and 1996, these reserves totaled $2,117 and $1,614, respectively, and are included in Restricted Cash. Such cash reserves

The above table presents the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan maturing in 1998 due to its prepayment on January 2, 1998.
Interest Rate Protection Agreements:
In conjunction with obtaining the 1994 Mortgage Loan, the Company, through the Financing Partnership, purchased an interest rate protection agreement (the "1994 Interest Rate Protection Agreement") which effectively limited the interest rate during the initial five-year term of the 1994 Mortgage Loan to 7.20% per annum. Prior to the subsequent replacement of the 1994 Interest Rate Protection Agreement, its cost of $18,450 had been capitalized and was being amortized over the five-year term of the agreement. Effective July 1, 1995, the Company replaced the 1994 Interest Rate Protection Agreement with new interest rate protection agreements and entered into interest rate swap agreements (together, the "1995 Interest Rate Protection Agreements") with a notional value of $300,000, which together effectively fixed the annual interest rate on the 1994 Mortgage Loan at 6.97% for six years through June 30, 2001. As a result of the replacement of the interest rate protection agreement, the Company incurred a one-time loss of $6,400. The costs of the 1995 Interest Rate Protection Agreements had been capitalized and were being amortized over the respective terms of the 1995 Interest Rate Protection Agreements. On May 16, 1997, the

The 1997 Interest Rate Protection Agreement effectively limited the interest rate on the 1994 Defeased Mortgage Loan to 7.20% until December 31, 1997.

As of December 31, 1997 the interest rate protection agreements were fully amortized and written off.

Shareholders' Rights Plan:
On September 4, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend distribution of one Preferred Share Purchase Right ("Right") for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The dividend distribution was made on October 20, 1997 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 19, 1997. In addition, a Right will attach to each share of Common Stock issued in the future. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a share of Junior Participating Preferred Stock (the "Junior Preferred Stock"), at a price of $125 per one one-hundredth of a share (the "Purchase Price"), subject to adjustment. The Rights become exercisable only if a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (an "Acquiring Person") acquires, or obtains the right to acquire, beneficial ownership of Common Stock or other voting securities ("Voting Stock") that have 15% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Voting Stock, or if an Acquiring Person commences or makes an announcement of an intention to commence a tender offer or exchange offer to acquire beneficial ownership of Voting Stock that have 15% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Voting Stock. The Rights will expire on October 19, 2007, unless redeemed earlier by the Company at $.001 per Right, or exchanged by the Company at an exchange ratio of one share of Common Stock per Right.
In the event that a person becomes an Acquiring Person, each holder of
a Right, other than the Acquiring Person, is entitled to receive, upon exercise,
(1) Common Stock having a value equal to two times the Purchase Price of the
Right or (2) common stock of the acquiring company having a value equal to two
times the Purchase Price of the Right.
The Junior Preferred Stock ranks junior to all other series of the Company's preferred stock with respect to payment of dividends and as to distributions of assets in liquidation. Each share of Junior Preferred Stock has a quarterly dividend rate per share equal to the greater of $1.00 or 100 times the per share amount of any dividend (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or a subdivision of the Common Stock) declared on the Common Stock, subject to certain adjustments. In the event of liquidation, the holder of the Junior Preferred Stock is entitled to receive a preferred liquidation payment per share of $1.00 (plus accrued and unpaid dividends) or, if greater, an amount equal to 100 times the payment to be made per share of Common Stock, subject to certain adjustments.

12. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company maintains two stock incentive plans (the "Stock Incentive Plans") which are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Only officers and other employees of the Company and its affiliates generally are eligible to participate in the Stock Incentive Plans. However, Independent Directors of the Company receive automatic annual grants of options to purchase 10,000 shares at a per share exercise price equal to the fair market value of a share on the date of grant.
The Stock Incentive Plans authorize (i) the grant of stock options that qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code, (ii) the grant of stock options that do not so qualify, (iii) restricted stock awards, (iv) performance share awards and (v) dividend equivalent rights. The exercise price of stock options will be determined by the Compensation Committee, but may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. Special provisions apply to awards granted under the Stock Incentive Plans in the event of a change in control in the Company. As of January 30, 1998, the Company has authorized 7.7 million shares for issuance under the Stock Incentive Plans, of which, 1.7 million shares are available for future grants. The outstanding stock options generally vest over one to two year periods and have lives of ten years. Stock option transactions are summarized as follows:

The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", in accounting for its Stock Incentive Plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. Had compensation cost for the Company's Stock Incentive Plans been determined based upon the fair value at the grant date for awards under the Stock Incentive Plans consistent with the methodology prescribed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", net income and earnings per share would have been the pro forma amounts indicated in the table below:

The weighted average fair value of options granted during 1997, 1996 and 1995 is $2.72, $2.43 and $1.84 per option, respectively.
In September 1994, the Board of Directors approved and the Company adopted a 401(k)/Profit Sharing Plan. Under the Company's 401(k)/Profit Sharing Plan, all eligible employees may participate by making voluntary contributions. The Company may make, but is not required to make, matching contributions.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in legal actions arising from the ownership of its properties. In management's opinion, the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such legal actions are not expected to have a materially adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, operations or liquidity of the Company.
Thirty-four properties have leases granting the tenants options to purchase the property. Such options are exercisable at various times and at appraised fair market value or at a fixed purchase price generally in excess of the Company's net book value of the asset. The Company has no notice of any exercise of any tenant purchase option.
The Company has committed to the construction of 12 industrial properties totaling approximately 2.5 million square feet (unaudited). The estimated total construction costs are approximately $90.4 million (unaudited). These developments are expected to be funded with cash flow from operations as well as borrowings under the 1997 Unsecured Acquisition Facility.
At December 31, 1997, the Company had two letters of credit outstanding in the amounts of $980 and $329. The $980 letter of credit was required under the original issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock to guarantee the payment of one quarter's dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock. The Guarantee Agent of the Series A Preferred Stock is the beneficiary of this letter of credit which expires on June 29, 1998. The $329 letter of credit is pledged to a municipality to guarantee the completion of certain site improvements at one of the Company's property developments. It expires on August 31, 1998.
16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED)
During the period January 1, 1998 through March 16, 1998, the Company purchased 56 industrial properties containing an aggregate of 2.9 million square feet of GLA for approximately $103,441, or $36.20 per square foot. The aggregate purchase price consisted of approximately $101,470 million in cash and Operating Partnership units valued at approximately $1,971.
On January 2, 1998, the Company entered into an interest rate protection agreement to lock into a fixed interest rate on an anticipated offering of senior unsecured debt. The interest rate protection agreement had a notional value of $50,000, an interest rate of 5.937% and a settlement date of October 2, 1998. This interest rate protection agreement's value is based on the 30-year Treasury.
On January 27, 1998, the Company registered approximately $789,165 of common stock, preferred stock and depositary shares and $400,000 of debt securities.
On February 4, 1998, the Company issued 5,000,000 Depositary Shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of the Company's 7.95%, $.01 par value, Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series D Preferred Stock"), at an initial offering price of $25 per Depositary Share. Dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares are cumulative from the date of initial issuance and are payable quarterly in arrears. With respect to the dividends and amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Series D Preferred Stock ranks senior to payments on the Company's $.01 par value common stock and pari passu with the Company's Series A, B and C Preferred Stock. The Series D Preferred Stock is not redeemable prior to February 4, 2003. On or after February 4, 2003, the Series D Preferred Stock is redeemable for cash at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equivalent to $25 per Depositary Share, or $125,000 in the aggregate, plus dividends accrued and unpaid to the redemption date. The Series D Preferred Stock has no stated maturity and is not convertible into any other securities of the Company.

Dividends on the Series E Preferred Stock, represented by the Depositary Shares, are cumulative from the date of initial issuance and are payable quarterly in arrears.

FIRST INDUSTRIAL REALTY TRUST, INC.
Articles Supplementary of Board of Directors Classifying and Designating a Series of Preferred Stock as
7.90% Series E Cumulative Preferred Stock and Fixing Distribution and Other Preferences and Rights of Such Series
First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, having its principal office in the State of Maryland in the City of Baltimore (the "Company"), hereby certifies to the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland that:
Pursuant to authority conferred upon the Board of Directors by the Charter and Bylaws of the Company, the Board of Directors on December 3, 1996 and December 4, 1997 adopted resolutions appointing certain members of the Board of Directors to a committee (the "Special Committee") with power to cause the Company to issue, among other things, certain series of Preferred Stock and to determine the number of shares which shall constitute such series and the Dividend Rate (as defined herein) and other terms of such series. The Special Committee pursuant to a resolution dated March 13, 1998 (i) authorized the creation and issuance of up to 34,500 shares of Series E Cumulative Preferred Stock which stock was previously authorized but not issued and (ii) determined the preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, and terms and conditions of redemption of the shares of such series and the Dividend Rate (which rate shall be 7.90%) payable on such series. Such preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, and terms and conditions of redemption, number of shares and Dividend Rate, as determined by such duly authorized committee, as applicable, are as follows:
Section 1. Number of Shares and Designation. This class of Preferred Stock shall be designated 7.90% Series E Cu-
mulative Preferred Stock (the "Series E Preferred Shares") and the number of shares which shall constitute such series shall not be more than 34,500 shares, par value $.01 per share, which number may be decreased (but not below the number thereof then outstanding) from time to time by the Board of Directors.
Section 2. Dividend Rights. (1) Dividends shall be payable in cash on the Series E Preferred Shares when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of assets legally available therefor: (i) for the period (the "Initial Dividend Period") from the Deemed Original Issue Date (as defined below) to but excluding July 1, 1998, and (ii) for each quarterly dividend period thereafter (the Initial Dividend Period and each quarterly dividend period being hereinafter individually referred to as a "Dividend Period" and collectively referred to as "Dividend Periods"), which quarterly Dividend Periods shall commence on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 in each year (each, a "Dividend Period Commencement Date"), commencing on July 1, 1998, and shall end on and include the day next preceding the next Dividend Period Commencement Date, at a rate per annum equal to 7.90% of the liquidation preference thereof (the "Dividend Rate"). Dividends on each Series E Preferred Share shall be cumulative from the Deemed Original Issue Date of such share and shall be payable, without interest thereon, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing on June 30, 1998 or, in the case of Series E Preferred Shares with a Deemed Original Issue Date after June 30 1998, the first such dividend payment date following such Deemed Original Issue Date; provided, that if any such day shall be a Saturday, Sunday, or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or obligated by law to close, or a day which is or is declared a national or a New York state holiday (any of the foregoing a "Non-Business Day"), then the payment date shall be the next succeeding day which is not a Non-Business Day. Each such dividend shall be paid to the holders of record of Series E Preferred Shares as they appear on the stock register of the Company on such record date, not more than 45 days nor less than 15 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors. Dividends on account of arrears for any past Dividend Periods may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to any regular dividend payment date, to holders of record on such date, not more than 45 days nor less than 15 days preceding the payment date thereof, as may be fixed by the Board of Directors. After an amount equal to full cumulative dividends on this series, including for the then current Dividend Period, has been paid to holders of record of Series E Preferred Shares
entitled to receive dividends as set forth above by the Company, or such dividends have been declared and funds therefor set aside for payment, the holders of Series E Preferred Shares will not be entitled to any further dividends with respect to that Dividend Period.
"Deemed Original Issue Date" means (a) in the case of any share which is
part of the first issuance of Series E Preferred Shares or part of a subsequent
issuance of Series E Preferred Shares prior to July 1, 1998, the date of such
first issuance and (b) in the case of any share which is part of a subsequent
issuance of Series E Preferred Shares on or after July 1, 1998, the later of
(x) July 1, 1998 and (y) the latest Dividend Period Commencement Date which
precedes the date of issuance of such share and which succeeds the last
Dividend Period for which full cumulative dividends have been paid; provided
that, in the case of any share which is part of a subsequent issuance on or
after July 1, 1998, the date of issuance of which falls between (i) the record
date for dividends payable on the first succeeding dividend payment date and
(ii) such dividend payment date, the "Deemed Original Issue Date" means the
date of the Dividend Period Commencement Date that immediately follows the date
of issuance.
(2) Dividends payable on Series E Preferred Shares for any period greater or less than a full Dividend Period, including the Initial Dividend Period, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Dividends payable on Series E Preferred Shares for each full Dividend Period shall be computed by dividing the Dividend Rate by four.
(3) When dividends are not paid in full upon the Series E Preferred Shares and any other series of preferred stock of the Company ranking on a parity therewith as to dividends, (or, in the case of the Company's Series A Preferred Shares, payments in lieu thereof are not made under that certain Guarantee and Payment Agreement dated November 17, 1995 between First Industrial Securities, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and First Industrial Securities Corporation for the benefit of American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago for the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares (the "Guarantee")), all dividends declared upon the Series E Preferred Shares and any other series of preferred stock of the Company ranking on a parity therewith as to dividends shall be declared pro rata so that the amount of dividends declared per share on the Series E Preferred Shares and such other series of preferred stock shall in all cases bear to each other that same
ratio that the accumulated dividends per share on the Series E Preferred Shares and such other series of preferred stock (less, in the case of the Series A Preferred Shares, payments under the Guarantee in lieu of such dividends) bear to each other. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, unless an amount equal to full cumulative dividends on the Series E Preferred Shares has been paid to holders of record of Series E Preferred Shares entitled to receive dividends as set forth above by the Company for all past Dividend Periods, no dividends (other than in shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share (together with any other shares of capital stock of the Company into which such shares shall be reclassified or changed "Common Stock"), or other shares of capital stock of the Company ranking junior to the Series E Preferred Shares as to dividends and upon liquidation) shall be declared or paid or set aside for payment nor (except pursuant to the Guarantee with respect to the Series A Preferred Shares) shall any other distribution be made upon the Common Stock or any other Shares of capital stock of the Company ranking junior to or on a parity with the Series E Preferred Shares as to dividends or upon liquidation. Unless an amount equal to full cumulative dividends on the Series E Preferred Shares has been paid to holders of record of Series E Preferred Shares entitled to receive dividends as set forth above by the Company for all past Dividend Periods, no Common Stock or any other Shares of capital stock of the Company ranking junior to or on a parity with the Series E Preferred Shares as to dividends or upon liquidation shall be redeemed, purchased, or otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any moneys be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any shares of any such stock) by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, except by conversion into or exchange for shares of capital stock of the Company ranking junior to the Series E Preferred Shares as to dividends and upon liquidation and except pursuant to the Guarantee with respect to the Series A Preferred Shares.
Section 3. Liquidation. (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, the holders of Series E Preferred Shares are entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders, before any distribution of assets is made to holders of Common Stock or any other class or series of shares ranking junior to the Series E Preferred Shares upon liquidation, liquidating distributions in the amount of the stated value of $2,500 per share, plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends (whether or not earned or declared) for the then current and all past Dividend Periods. If, upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution,
or winding up of the Company, the amounts payable with respect to the Series E Preferred Shares and any other shares of the Company ranking as to any such distribution on a parity with the Series E Preferred Shares are not paid in full, the holders of Series E Preferred Shares and of such other shares will share ratably in any such distribution of assets of the Company in proportion to the full respective preferential amounts to which they are entitled. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distribution to which they are entitled, the holders of Series E Preferred Shares will not be entitled to any further participation in any distribution of assets by the Company.
(2) Written notice of any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, 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 first class mail, postage prepaid, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record holder of the Series E Preferred Shares at the respective addresses of such holders as the same shall appear on the stock transfer records of the Company.
(3) For purposes of liquidation rights, a consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or corporations or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company shall be deemed not to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.
Section 4. Redemption. (1) Except as provided in clause (9) below, the Series E Preferred Shares are not redeemable prior to March 18, 2003. On and after such date, the Series E Preferred Shares are redeemable at the option of the Company, by resolution of the Board of Directors, in whole or in part, from time to time upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at a cash redemption price of the stated value of $2,500 per share, plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends (whether or not earned or declared) to the date of redemption (the "Redemption Price"). The Redemption Price (other than the portion consisting of accumulated and unpaid dividends) shall be payable solely out of the proceeds from the sale of capital stock of the Company. For purposes of the preceding sentence "Capital Stock" means common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, interests, participations or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities) or options to purchase any of the foregoing.
(2) If fewer than all of the outstanding Series E Preferred Shares are to be redeemed, the number of shares to be redeemed will be determined by the Board of Directors and such shares shall be redeemed pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of such shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by lot in a manner determined by the Board of Directors.
(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an amount equal to full dividends for all past Dividend Periods on the Series E Preferred Shares has not been paid to holders of record of Series E Preferred Shares entitled to receive dividends as set forth above by the Company, no Series E Preferred Shares shall be redeemed, except pursuant to Article IX of the Charter, unless all outstanding Series E Preferred Shares are simultaneously redeemed, and the Company shall not purchase or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any Series E Preferred Shares; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the purchase or acquisition of Series E Preferred Shares pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer provided such offer is made on the same terms to all holders of Series E Preferred Shares.
(4) Immediately prior to any redemption of Series E Preferred Shares, the Company shall pay, in cash, any accumulated and unpaid dividends through the redemption date, unless a redemption date falls after a dividend payment record date and prior to the corresponding dividend payment date, in which case each holder of Series E Preferred Shares at the close of business on such dividend payment record date shall be entitled to the dividend payable on such shares on the corresponding dividend payment date notwithstanding the redemption of such shares before such dividend payment date. Except as expressly provided hereinabove, the Company shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears, on Series E Preferred Shares called for redemption.
(5) Notice of redemption shall be given by publication in a newspaper of general circulation in The City of New York, such publication to be made once a week for two successive weeks, commencing not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption thereof. A similar notice will be mailed by the Company by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each record holder of the Series E Preferred Shares to be redeemed, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to such redemption date, to the respective addresses of such holders as the same shall appear on the stock transfer records of
the Company. Each notice shall state: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the number of Series E Preferred Shares to be redeemed; (iii) the Redemption Price; (iv) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price; and (v) that dividends on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on such redemption date. If fewer than all the Series E Preferred Shares held by any holder are to be redeemed, the notice mailed to such holder shall also specify the number of Series E Preferred Shares to be redeemed from such holder.
(6) In order to facilitate the redemption of Series E Preferred Shares, the Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of the shares to be redeemed, such record date to be not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption.
(7) Notice having been given as provided above, from and after the date fixed for the redemption of Series E Preferred Shares by the Company (unless the Company shall fail to make available the money necessary to effect such redemption), the holders of shares selected for redemption shall cease to be stockholders with respect to such shares and shall have no interest in or claim against the Company by virtue thereof and shall have no voting or other rights with respect to such shares, except the right to receive the moneys payable upon such redemption from the Company, less any required tax withholding amount, without interest thereon, upon surrender (and endorsement or assignment of transfer, if required by the Company and so stated in the notice) of their certificates, and the shares represented thereby shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding. If fewer than all the shares represented by a certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued, without cost to the holder thereof, representing the unredeemed shares. The Company may, at its option, at any time after a notice of redemption has been given, deposit the redemption price for the Series E Preferred Shares designated for redemption and not yet redeemed, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon to the date fixed for redemption, with the transfer agent or agents for the Series E Preferred Shares, as a trust fund for the benefit of the holders of the Series E Preferred Shares designated for redemption, together with irrevocable instructions and authority to such transfer agent or agents that such funds be delivered upon redemption of such shares and to pay, on and after the date fixed for redemption or prior thereto, the redemption price of the shares to their respective holders upon the surrender of their share certificates. From and after the making of such deposit, the holders
of the shares designated for redemption shall cease to be stockholders with respect to such shares and shall have no interest in or claims against the Company by virtue thereof and shall have no voting or other rights with respect to such shares, except the right to receive from such trust fund the moneys payable upon such redemption, without interest thereon, upon surrender (and endorsement, if required by the Company) of their certificates, and the shares represented thereby shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding. Any balance of such moneys remaining unclaimed at the end of the five-year period commencing on the date fixed for redemption shall be repaid to the Company upon its request expressed in a resolution of its Board of Directors.
(8) Any Series E Preferred Shares that shall at any time have been redeemed shall, after such redemption, have the status of authorized but unissued preferred stock, without designation as to series until such shares are once more designated as part of a particular series by the Board of Directors.
(9) The Series E Preferred Shares are subject to the provisions of Article IX of the Charter, including, without limitation, the provisions for the redemption of Excess Stock (as defined in such Article). Notwithstanding the provisions of Article IX of the Charter, Series E Preferred Shares which have been exchanged pursuant to such Article for Excess Stock may be redeemed, in whole or in part, and, if in part, pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of such shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by lot in a manner determined by the Board of Directors, at any time when outstanding Series E Preferred Shares are being redeemed.
Section 5. Voting Rights. The Series E Preferred Shares shall not have any voting powers either general or special, except as required by law and except that:
(1) If and whenever full cumulative dividends on the Series E Preferred Shares, or any other series of preferred stock of the Company ranking on a parity with the Series E Preferred Shares as to dividends or upon liquidation (any such series, a "Parity Preferred Series"), for six quarterly dividend payment periods, whether or not consecutive, are in arrears and unpaid, (and, if such an arrearage exists with respect to Series A Preferred Shares, payment has not been made in the amount of such arrearages pursuant to the Guarantee) (such failure to pay by the Company, a "Dividend Default"), the holders of all outstanding Series E Preferred Shares and any Parity Preferred Series, voting as a single class without regard to series, will be entitled to elect two Directors until all dividends in arrears and unpaid on the Series E Preferred Shares and any Parity
Preferred Series have been paid (either directly or, in the case of the Series A Preferred Shares, pursuant to the Guarantee) or declared and funds therefor set apart for payment. At any time when such right to elect Directors separately as a class shall have so vested, the Company may, and upon the written request of the holders of record of not less than 20% of the total number of Series E Preferred Shares and shares of any Parity Preferred Series of the Company then outstanding shall, call a special meeting of stockholders for the election of such Directors. In the case of such a written request, such special meeting shall be held within 90 days after the delivery of such request and, in either case, at the place and upon the notice provided by law and in the Bylaws of the Company, provided that the Company shall not be required to call such a special meeting if such request is received less than 120 days before the date fixed for the next ensuing Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company and the holders of all outstanding Series E Preferred Shares and shares of any Parity Preferred Series are afforded the opportunity to elect such Directors (or fill any vacancy) at such Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Directors elected as aforesaid shall serve until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company or until their respective successors shall be elected and qualified, or, if sooner, until an amount equal to all dividends in arrears and unpaid have been paid (either directly or pursuant to the Guarantee) or declared and funds therefor set apart for payment. If, prior to the end of the term of any Director elected as aforesaid, a vacancy in the office of such Director shall occur during the continuance of a Dividend Default by reason of death, resignation, or disability, such vacancy shall be filled for the unexpired term by the appointment of a new Director for the unexpired term of such former Director, such appointment to be made by the remaining Director or Directors elected as aforesaid.
(2) The affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding Series E Preferred Shares and any Parity Preferred Series, voting as a single class without regard to series, will be required to issue, authorize or increase the authorized amount of any class or series of shares ranking prior to the Series E Preferred Shares and shares of each Parity Preferred Series as to dividends or upon liquidation or to issue or authorize any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing a right to purchase any such security. Subject to the preceding sentence, the affirma-
tive vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding Series E Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class, will be required to amend or repeal any provision of, or add any provision to, the Charter if such action would materially and adversely alter or change the powers, preferences, privileges or rights of the Series E Preferred Shares.
(3) Nothing herein shall be taken to require a class vote or consent in connection with the authorization, designation, increase or issuance of shares of any class or series (including additional preferred stock of any series) that rank junior to or on a parity with the Series E Preferred Shares as to dividends and liquidation rights or in connection with the authorization, designation, increase or issuance of any bonds, mortgages, debentures or other debt obligations of the Company.
Section 6. Conversion. The Series E Preferred Shares are not convertible into shares of any other class or series of the capital stock of the Company.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused these Articles Supplementary to be signed in its name and on its behalf and attested to by the undersigned on this 13th day of March, 1998 and the undersigned acknowledges under the penalties of perjury that these Articles Supplementary are the corporate act of said Company and that to the best of his knowledge, information and belief, the matters and facts set forth herein are true in all material respects.

DEPOSIT AGREEMENT, dated as of March 18, 1998, among FIRST INDUSTRIAL REALTY TRUST, INC., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), FIRST CHICAGO TRUST COMPANY OF NEW YORK, a national banking association (the "Depositary"), and the holders from time to time of the Receipts described herein.
WHEREAS, it is desired to provide, as hereinafter set forth in this Deposit Agreement, for the deposit of shares of Series E Cumulative Preferred Stock of the Company with the Depositary for the purposes set forth in this Deposit Agreement and for the issuance hereunder of Receipts evidencing Depositary Shares in respect of the Stock so deposited; and
WHEREAS, the Receipts are to be substantially in the form of Exhibit A annexed hereto, with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter provided in this Deposit Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE II
FORM OF RECEIPTS, DEPOSIT OF STOCK, EXECUTION AND DELIVERY,
TRANSFER, SURRENDER AND REDEMPTION OF RECEIPTS
SECTION 2.1. Form and Transfer of Receipts. The Company and the Depositary shall make application to The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") for acceptance of all or a portion of the Receipts for its book-entry settlement system. The Company hereby appoints the Depositary acting through any authorized officer thereof as its attorney-in-fact, with full power to delegate, for purposes of executing any agreements, certifications or other instruments or documents necessary or desirable in order to effect the acceptance of such Receipts for DTC eligibility. So long as the Receipts are eligible for book-entry settlement with DTC, unless otherwise required by law, all Depositary Shares to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange with book-entry settlement through DTC shall be represented by a single receipt (the "DTC Receipt"),
which shall be deposited with DTC (or its designee) evidencing all such Depositary Shares and registered in the name of the nominee of DTC (initially expected to be Cede & Co.). First Chicago Trust Company of New York or such other entity as is agreed to by DTC may hold the DTC Receipt as custodian for DTC. Ownership of beneficial interests in the DTC Receipt shall be shown on, and the transfer of such ownership shall be effected through, records maintained by (i) DTC or its nominee for such DTC Receipt, or (ii) institutions that have accounts with DTC.
If DTC subsequently ceases to make its book-entry settlement system available for the Receipts, the Company may instruct the Depositary regarding making other arrangements for book-entry settlement. In the event that the Receipts are not eligible for, or it is no longer desirable to have the Receipts available in, book-entry form, the Depositary shall provide written instructions to DTC to deliver to the Depositary for cancellation the DTC Receipt, and the Company shall instruct the Depositary to deliver to the beneficial owners of the Depositary Shares previously evidenced by the DTC definitive Receipts in physical form evidencing such Depositary Shares. Such definitive receipts shall be in substantially the form annexed hereto as Annex A, with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereafter provided.
The beneficial owners of Depositary Shares shall, except as stated above with respect to Depositary Shares in book-entry form represented by the DTC Receipt, be entitled to receive Receipts in physical, certificated form as herein provided.
Definitive Receipts shall be engraved or printed or lithographed on steel-engraved borders, with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter provided, if and to the extent required by any securities exchange on which the Receipts are listed. The DTC Receipt shall bear such legend or legends as may be required by DTC in order for it to accept the Depository Shares for its book-entry settlement system. Pending the preparation of definitive Receipts or if definitive Receipts are not required by any securities exchange on which the Receipts are listed, the Depositary, upon the written order of the Company, delivered in compliance with Section 2.2, shall execute and deliver temporary Receipts which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise substantially of the tenor of the definitive Receipts in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the persons executing such Receipts may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Receipts. If temporary Receipts are issued, the Company and the Depositary will cause de-
finitive Receipts to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Receipts, the temporary Receipts shall be exchangeable for definitive Receipts upon surrender of the temporary Receipts at the Depositary's Office or at such other place or places as the Depositary shall determine, without charge to the holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Receipts, the Depositary shall execute and deliver in exchange therefor definitive Receipts representing the same number of Depositary Shares as represented by the surrendered temporary Receipt or Receipts. Such exchange shall be made at the Company's expense and without any charge to the holder therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Receipts shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement, and with respect to the Stock, as definitive Receipts.
Receipts shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual and/or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary. No Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless it shall have been executed in accordance with the foregoing sentence. The Depositary shall record on its books each Receipt so signed and delivered as hereinafter provided.
Receipts shall be in denominations of any number of whole Depositary Shares. The Company shall deliver to the Depositary from time to time such quantities of Receipts as the Depositary may request to enable the Depositary to perform its obligations under this Deposit Agreement.
Receipts may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement as may be required by the Depositary or required to comply with any applicable law or any regulation thereunder or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange upon which the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts may be listed or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Receipts are subject.
Title to Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt which is properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument; provided, however, that until transfer of a Receipt shall be registered on the books of the Depositary as provided in Section 2.3, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the record holder thereof at such time as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to distributions of
dividends or other distributions or to any notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes.
SECTION 2.2. Deposit of Stock; Execution and Delivery of Receipts in Respect Thereof. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Company may from time to time deposit shares of Stock under this Deposit Agreement by delivery to the Depositary of a certificate or certificates for the Stock to be deposited, properly endorsed or accompanied, if required by the Depositary, by a duly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement, in form satisfactory to the Depositary, together with all such certifications as may be required by the Depositary in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement, and together with a written order of the Company or such holder, as the case may be, directing the Depositary to execute and deliver to, or upon the written order of, the person or persons stated in such order a Receipt or Receipts for the number of Depositary Shares representing such deposited Stock.
Deposited Stock shall be held by the Depositary at the Depositary's Office or at such other place or places as the Depositary shall determine.
Upon receipt by the Depositary of a certificate or certificates for Stock deposited in accordance with the provisions of this Section, together with the other documents required as above specified, and upon recordation of the Stock on the books of the Company in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, the Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, shall execute and deliver, to or upon the order of the person or persons named in the written order delivered to the Depositary referred to in the first paragraph of this Section, a Receipt or Receipts for the whole number of Depositary Shares representing, in the aggregate, the Stock so deposited and registered in such name or names as may be requested by such person or persons. The Depositary shall execute and deliver such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary's Office or such other offices, if any, as the Depositary may designate. Delivery at other offices shall be at the risk and expense of the person requesting such delivery.
SECTION 2.3. Registration of Transfer of Receipts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall register on its books from time to time transfers of Receipts upon any surrender thereof by the holder in person or by a duly authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer. Thereupon, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts evidencing the same aggregate number of Depositary Shares as those evidenced by
the Receipt or Receipts surrendered and deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto.
SECTION 2.4. Split-ups and Combinations of Receipts; Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Stock. Upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary's Office or at such other offices as it may designate for the purpose of effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt or Receipts, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall execute and deliver a new Receipt or Receipts in the authorized denomination or denominations requested, evidencing the aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered; provided, however, that the Depositary shall not issue any Receipt evidencing a fractional Depositary Share.
Any holder of a Receipt or Receipts representing any number of whole
shares of Stock may (unless the related Depositary Shares have previously been
called for redemption) withdraw the Stock and all money and other property, if
any, represented thereby by surrendering such Receipt or Receipts at the
Depositary's Office or at such other offices as the Depositary may designate
for such withdrawals and paying any unpaid amount due the Depositary. If such
holder's Depositary Shares are being held by DTC or its nominee pursuant to
Section 2.1, such holder shall request withdrawal from the book-entry system of
Receipts representing any number of whole shares. Thereafter, without
unreasonable delay, the Depositary shall deliver to such holder or to the
person or persons designated by such holder as hereinafter provided the number
of whole shares of Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented
by the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered for withdrawal, but holders of such
whole shares of Stock will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such Stock
hereunder or to receive Depositary Shares therefor. If a Receipt delivered by
the holder to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence
a number of Depositary Shares in excess of the number of Depositary Shares
representing the number of whole shares of Stock to be so withdrawn, the
Depositary shall at the same time, in addition to such number of whole shares
of Stock and such money and other property, if any, to be so withdrawn, deliver
to such holder, or upon his order, a new Receipt evidencing such excess number
of Depositary Shares; provided, however, that the Depositary shall not issue
any Receipt evidencing a fractional Depositary Share.
Delivery of the Stock and money and other property being withdrawn may be made by the delivery of such certificates, documents of title and other instruments as the Depositary may deem
appropriate, which, if required by the Depositary, shall be properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer.
If the Stock and the money and other property being withdrawn are to be delivered to a person or persons other than the record holder of the Receipt or Receipts being surrendered for withdrawal of Stock, such holder shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary and the Depositary may require that the Receipt or Receipts surrendered by such holder for withdrawal of such shares of Stock be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer in blank.
Delivery of the Stock and the money and other property, if any, represented by Receipts surrendered for withdrawal shall be made by the Depositary at the Depositary's Office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of the holder surrendering such Receipt or Receipts and for the account of the holder thereof, such delivery may be made at such other place as may be designated by such holder.
SECTION 2.5. Limitations on Execution and Delivery, Transfer, Surrender and Exchange of Receipts. As a condition precedent to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer, split-up, combination, surrender or exchange of any Receipt, the Depositary, any of the Depositary's Agents or the Company may require payment to it of a sum sufficient for the payment (or, in the event that the Depositary or the Company shall have made such payment, the reimbursement to it) of any charges or expenses payable by the holder of a Receipt pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 5.7, may require the production of evidence satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any signature, and may also require compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary or the Company may establish consistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement.
The deposit of Stock may be refused, the delivery of Receipts against Stock may be suspended, the registration of transfer of Receipts may be refused and the registration of transfer, surrender or exchange of outstanding Receipts may be suspended (i) during any period when the register of stockholders of the Company is closed, or (ii) if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the Depositary, any of the Depositary's Agents or the Company at any time or from time to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body or commission or under any provision of this Deposit Agreement.
SECTION 2.6. Lost Receipts, etc. In case any receipt shall be mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Depositary in its reasonable discretion may execute and deliver a Receipt of like form and tenor in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Receipt, or in lieu of and in substitution for such destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt, upon (i) the filing by the holder thereof with the Depositary of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary of such destruction or loss or theft of such Receipt, of the authenticity thereof and of his or her ownership thereof, (ii) the furnishing of the Depositary with indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it and the Company and (iii) the payment of any reasonable expense (including reasonable fees, charges and expenses of the Depositary) in connection with such execution and delivery.
SECTION 2.7. Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Receipts. All Receipts surrendered to the Depositary or any Depositary's Agent shall be cancelled by the Depositary. Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Company is authorized to destroy all Receipts so cancelled.
SECTION 2.8. Redemption of Stock. Whenever the Company shall be permitted and shall elect to redeem shares of Stock in accordance with the provisions of the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Articles Supplementary, it shall (unless otherwise agreed to in writing with the Depositary) give or cause to be given to the Depositary not less than 45 days notice of the date of such proposed redemption or exchange of Stock and of the number of such shares held by the Depositary to be so redeemed and the applicable redemption price, as set forth in the Articles Supplementary, which notice shall be accompanied by a certificate from the Company stating that such redemption of Stock is in accordance with the provisions of the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Articles Supplementary. On the date of such redemption, provided that the Company shall then have paid or caused to be paid in full to the Depositary the redemption price of the Stock to be redeemed, plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the date fixed for redemption, in accordance with the provisions of the Articles Supplementary, the Depositary shall redeem the number of Depositary Shares representing such Stock. The Depositary shall mail notice of the Company's redemption of Stock and the proposed simultaneous redemption of the number of Depositary Shares representing the Stock to be redeemed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, not less than 30 and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of such Stock and Depositary Shares (the "Redemption Date") to the record holders of the Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed, at the address of such holders as they appear on the records of the
Depositary; but neither failure to mail any such notice of redemption of Depositary Shares to one or more such holders nor any defect in any notice of redemption of Depositary Shares to one or more such holders shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption as to the other holders. The Company will provide the Depositary with the information necessary for the Depositary to prepare such notice and each such notice shall state: (i) the Redemption Date; (ii) the number of Depositary Shares to be redeemed and, if fewer than all the Depositary Shares held by any such holder are to be redeemed, the number of such Depositary Shares held by such holder to be so redeemed; (iii) the redemption price per Depositary Share; (iv) the place or places where Receipts evidencing Depositary Shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (v) that dividends in respect of the Stock represented by the Depositary Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such Redemption Date and will bear no interest. In case fewer than all the outstanding Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed shall be determined pro rata or by lot in a manner determined by the Board of Directors.
Notice having been mailed by the Depositary as aforesaid, from and after the Redemption Date (unless the Company shall have failed to provide the funds necessary to redeem the Stock evidenced by the Depositary Shares called for redemption) (i) dividends on the shares of Stock so called for redemption shall cease to accrue from and after such date, (ii) the Depositary Shares being redeemed from such proceeds shall be deemed no longer to be outstanding, (iii) all rights of the holders of Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares (except the right to receive the redemption price) shall, to the extent of such Depositary Shares, cease and terminate, and (iv) upon surrender in accordance with such redemption; notice of the Receipts evidencing any such Depositary Shares called for redemption (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Depositary or applicable law shall so require), such Depositary Shares shall be redeemed by the Depositary at a redemption price per Depositary Share equal to the same fraction of the redemption price per share paid with respect to the shares of Stock as the fraction each Depositary Share represents of a share of Stock plus the same fraction of all money and other property, if any, represented by such Depositary Shares, including all amounts paid by the Company in respect of dividends which on the Redemption Date have accumulated on the shares of Stock to be so redeemed and have not theretofore been paid. Any funds deposited by the Company with the Depositary for any Depositary Shares that the holders thereof fail to redeem will, upon the written request of the Company, be returned to the Company after a period of five years from the date such funds are so deposited.
If fewer than all of the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt are called for redemption, the Depositary will deliver to the holder of such Receipt upon its surrender to the Depositary, together with the redemption payment, a new Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Receipt and not called for redemption; provided, however, that the Depositary shall not issue any Receipt evidencing a fractional Depositary Share.
SECTION 2.9. Stock Constituting Excess Stock. As provided in the Articles of Incorporation or Articles Supplementary, upon the happening of certain events, shares of Stock shall be deemed to automatically constitute Excess Stock. In the event of such a conversion, the Receipt representing the deposited Stock so converted shall no longer represent, to the extent of the shares so converted, such deposited Stock. Promptly upon its knowledge of the conversion of such deposited Stock into Excess Shares, the Company shall notify the Depositary of such conversion, the number of shares of deposited Stock so converted, and the identity of the holder of the Receipt so affected, whereupon the Depositary shall promptly notify the holder of such Receipt as to the foregoing information and the requirement for the holder to surrender such Receipt to the Depositary for cancellation of the number of Depositary Shares evidenced thereby equal to the deposited Stock constituting Excess Shares represented thereby.
If fewer than all of the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt are required to be surrendered for cancellation, the Depositary will deliver to the holder of such Receipt upon its surrender to the Depositary a new Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Receipt and not required to be surrendered for cancellation. Upon the conversion of the deposited Stock and cancellation of the Depositary Shares represented thereby, the Depositary will make appropriate adjustments in its records to reflect such conversion and cancellation (including the reduction of any fractional share of deposited Stock and the issuance of any Excess Shares).
ARTICLE III
CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF HOLDERS OF RECEIPTS AND THE COMPANY
SECTION 3.1. Filing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information. Any holder of a Receipt may be required from time to time to file such proof of residence, or other matters or other information, to execute such certificates and to make such representations and warranties as the Depositary or the Company may
reasonably deem necessary or proper or otherwise reasonably request. The Depositary or the Company may withhold the delivery, or delay the registration of transfer, redemption or exchange, of any Receipt or the withdrawal or conversion of the Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by any Receipt or the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or the sale of any rights or of the proceeds thereof until such proof or other information is filed or such certificates are executed or such representations and warranties are made.
SECTION 3.2. Payment of Taxes or Other Governmental Charges. Holders of Receipts shall be obligated to make payments to the Depositary of certain charges and expenses, as provided in Section 5.7. Registration of transfer of any Receipt or any withdrawal of Stock and all money or other property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt may be refused until any such payment due is made, and any dividends, interest payments or
other distributions may be withheld or any part of or all the Stock or other property represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt and not theretofore sold may be sold for the account of the holder thereof (after attempting by reasonable means to notify such holder prior to such sale), and such dividends, interest payments or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such charges or expenses, the holder of such Receipt remaining liable for any deficiency.
SECTION 3.3. Warranty as to Stock. The Company hereby represents and warrants that the Stock, when issued, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Stock and the issuance of Receipts.
ARTICLE IV
THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES; NOTICES
SECTION 4.1. Cash Distributions. Whenever the Depositary shall receive any cash dividend or other cash distribution on Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distribute to record holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of such dividend or distribution as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such holders; provided, however, that in case the Company or the Depositary shall be required to withhold and shall withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of the Stock an amount on account of taxes or as otherwise required
by law, regulation or court process, the amount made available for distribution or distributed in respect of Depositary Shares shall be reduced accordingly. In the event that the calculation of any such cash dividend or other cash distribution to be paid to any record holder on the aggregate number of Depositary Receipts held by such holder results in an amount which is a fraction of a cent, the amount the Depositary shall distribute to such record holder shall be rounded to the next highest whole cent if such fraction of a cent is equal to or greater than $.005; otherwise such fractional interest shall be disregarded; and upon request of the Depositary, the Company shall pay the additional amount to the Depositary for distribution.
SECTION 4.2. Distributions Other than Cash, Rights, Preferences or Privileges. Whenever the Depositary shall receive any distribution other than cash, rights, preferences or privileges upon Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distribute to record holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of the securities or property received by it as are, as nearly as may be practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such holders, in any manner that the Depositary may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution. If in the opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made proportionately among such record holders, or if for any other reason (including any requirement that the Company or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes) the Depositary deems (after consultation with the Company) such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may, with the approval of the Company, adopt such method as it deems equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem equitable and appropriate. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed or made available for distribution, as the case may be, by the Depositary to record holders of Receipts as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash.
SECTION 4.3. Subscription Rights, Preferences or Privileges. If the Company shall at any time offer or cause to be offered to the persons in whose names Stock is recorded on the books of the Company any rights, preferences or privileges to subscribe for or to purchase any securities or any rights, preferences or privileges of any other nature, such rights, preferences or privileges shall in each such instance be made available by the Depositary to the record holders of Receipts in such manner as the
Depositary may determine, either by the issue to such record holders of warrants representing such rights, preferences or privileges or by such other method as may be approved by the Depositary in its discretion with the approval of the Company; provided, however, that (i) if at the time of issue or offer of any such rights, preferences or privileges the Depositary determines that it is not lawful or (after consultation with the Company) not feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available to holders of Receipts by the issue of warrants or otherwise, or (ii) if and to the extent so instructed by holders of Receipts who do not desire to execute such rights, preferences or privileges, then the Depositary, in its discretion (with approval of the Company, in any case where the Depositary has determined that it is not feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available), may, if applicable laws or the terms of such rights, preferences or privileges permit such transfer, sell such rights, preferences or privileges at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed by the Depositary to the record holders of Receipts entitled thereto as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash.
If registration under the Securities Act of the securities to which any rights, preferences or privileges relate is required in order for holders of Receipts to be offered or sold the securities to which such rights, preferences or privileges relate, the Company will file promptly a registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act with respect to such rights, preferences or privileges and securities and use its best efforts and take all steps available to it to cause such registration statement to become effective sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges. In no event shall the Depositary make available to the holders of Receipts any right, preference or privilege to subscribe for or to purchase any securities unless and until it has received written notice from the Company that such registration statement shall have become effective, or that the offering and sale of such securities to such holders are exempt from registration under the provisions of the Securities Act and the Company shall have provided to the Depositary an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary to such effect.
If any other action under the laws of any jurisdiction or any governmental or administrative authorization, consent or permit is required in order for such rights, preferences or privileges to be made available to holders of Receipts, the Company
will use its reasonable best efforts to take such action or obtain such authorization, consent or permit sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges.
SECTION 4.4. Notice of Dividends, etc.; Fixing Record Date for Holders of Receipts. Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or if rights, preferences or privileges shall at any time be offered, with respect to Stock, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting at which holders of Stock are entitled to vote or of which holders of Stock are entitled to notice, or whenever the Depositary and the Company shall decide it is appropriate, the Depositary shall in each such instance fix a record date (which shall be the same date as the record date fixed by the Company with respect to or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Stock) for the determination of the holders of Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, rights, preferences or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting, or who shall be entitled to notice of such meeting or for any other appropriate reasons.
SECTION 4.5. Voting Rights. Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of Stock are entitled to vote, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the record holders of Receipts a notice which shall contain (i) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting and (ii) a statement that the holders may, subject to any applicable restrictions, instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of Stock represented by their respective Depositary Shares (including an express indication that instructions may be given to the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company) and a brief statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given. Upon the written request of the holders of Receipts on the relevant record date, the Depositary shall use its best efforts to vote or cause to be voted, in accordance with the instructions set forth in such requests, the maximum number of whole shares of Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by all Receipts as to which any particular voting instructions are received. The Company hereby agrees to take all action which may be deemed necessary by the Depositary in order to enable the Depositary to vote such Stock or cause such Stock to be voted. In the absence of specific instructions from the holder of a Receipt, the Depositary will not vote to the extent of the Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt.
SECTION 4.6. Changes Affecting Deposited Securities and Reclassifications, Recapitalizations, etc. Upon any change in par value or liquidation preference, split-up, combination or any other reclassification of the Stock, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation affecting the Company or to which it is a party, the Depositary may in its discretion with the approval (not to be unreasonably withheld) of, and shall upon the instructions of, the Company, and (in either case) in such manner as the Depositary may deem equitable, (i) make such adjustments in the fraction of an interest in one share of Stock represented by one Depositary Share as may be necessary (as certified by the Company) fully to reflect the effects of such change in par value or liquidation preference, split-up, combination or other reclassification of Stock, or of such recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation and (ii) treat any securities which shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or upon conversion of or in respect of the Stock as new deposited securities so received in exchange for or upon conversion or in respect of such Stock. In any such case, the Depositary may in its discretion, with the approval of the Company, execute and deliver additional Receipts or may call for the surrender of all outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new deposited securities. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, holders of Receipts shall have the right from and after the effective date of any such change in par value or liquidation preference, split-up, combination or other reclassification of the Stock or any such recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation to surrender such Receipts to the Depositary with instructions to convert, exchange or surrender the Stock represented thereby only into or for, as the case may be, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property and cash into which the Stock represented by such Receipts would have been converted or for which such Stock would have been exchanged or surrendered had such Receipt been surrendered immediately prior to the effective date of such transaction.
SECTION 4.7. Delivery of Reports. The Depositary shall furnish to holders of Receipts any reports and communications received from the Company which are received by the Depositary as the holder of Stock.
SECTION 4.8. List of Receipt Holders. Promptly upon request from time to time by the Company, the Depositary shall furnish to it a list, as of the most recent practicable date, of the names, addresses and holdings of Depositary Shares of all record holders of Receipts. The Company shall be entitled to receive such list four times annually.
ARTICLE V
THE DEPOSITARY, THE DEPOSITARY'S
AGENTS, THE REGISTRAR AND THE COMPANY
SECTION 5.1. Maintenance of Offices, Agencies and Transfer Books by the Depositary; Registrar. Upon execution of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall maintain at the Depositary's Office facilities for the execution and delivery, registration and registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts, and at the offices of the Depositary's Agents, if any, facilities for the delivery, registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts, all in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement.
The Depositary shall keep books at the Depositary's Office for the registration and registration of transfer of Receipts, which books during normal business hours shall be open for inspection by the record holders of Receipts; provided that any such holder requesting to exercise such right shall certify to the Depositary that such inspection shall be for a proper purpose reasonably related to such person's interest as an owner of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts.
The Depositary may close such books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by it in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder.
The Depositary may, with the approval of the Company, appoint a Registrar for registration of the Receipts or the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby. If the Receipts or the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby or the Stock represented by such Depositary Shares shall be listed on one or more national securities exchanges, the Depositary will appoint a Registrar (acceptable to the Company) for registration of such Receipts or Depositary Shares in accordance with any requirements of such exchange. Such Registrar (which may be the Depositary if so permitted by the requirements of any such exchange) may be removed and a substitute registrar appointed by the Depositary upon the request or with the approval of the Company. If the Receipts, such Depositary Shares or such Stock is listed on one or more other stock exchanges, the Depositary will, at the request and at the expense of the Company, arrange such facilities for the delivery, registration, registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of such Receipts, such Depositary Shares or such Stock as may be required by law or applicable securities exchange regulation.
The Depositary may from time to time appoint Depositary's Agents to act in any respect for the Depositary for the purposes of this Deposit Agreement and may at any time appoint additional Depositary's Agents and vary or terminate the appointment of such Depositary's Agents. The Depositary will notify the Company of any such action.
SECTION 5.2. Prevention of or Delay in Performance by the Depositary, the Depositary's Agents, the Registrar or the Company. Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor the Registrar nor the Company shall incur any liability to any holder of any Receipt if by reason of any provision of any present or future law, or regulation thereunder, of the United States of America or of any other governmental authority or, in the case of the Depositary, the Depositary's Agent or the Registrar, by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation or by reason of any act of God or war or other circumstance beyond the control of the relevant party, the Depositary, the Depositary's Agent, the Registrar or the Company shall be prevented, delayed or forbidden from, or subjected to any penalty on account of, doing or performing any act or thing which the terms of this Deposit Agreement provide shall be done or performed; nor shall the Depositary, any Depositary's Agent, the Registrar or the Company incur liability to any holder of a Receipt (i) by reason of any nonperformance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing which the terms of this Deposit Agreement shall provide shall or may be done or performed, or (ii) by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement except, in the case of any such exercise or failure to exercise discretion not caused as aforesaid, if caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party charged with such exercise or failure to exercise.
SECTION 5.3. Obligation of the Depositary, the Depositary's Agents, the Registrar and the Company. Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor the Registrar nor the Company assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement or any Receipt to holders of Receipts other than for its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.
Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor the Registrar nor the Company shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts which in its reasonable opinion may involve it in expense or liability unless indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against ex-
pense and liability be furnished as often as may be reasonably required.
Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor the Registrar nor the Company shall be liable for any action or any failure to act by it in reliance upon the written advice of legal counsel or accountants, or information from any person presenting Stock for deposit, any holder of a Receipt or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such information. The Depositary, any Depositary's Agent, the Registrar and the Company may each rely and shall each be protected in acting upon any written notice, request, direction or other document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.
The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any
instruction to vote any of the shares of Stock or for the manner or effect of
any such vote made, as long as any such action or inaction is in good faith.
The Depositary will indemnify the Company and hold it harmless from any loss,
liability or expense (including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending
itself) which arises from its negligence, wilful misconduct or bad faith. The
Depositary undertakes and any Registrar shall be required to undertake only
such duties as specifically set forth herein and no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Deposit Agreement against the Depositary or
Registrar. The indemnification obligations of the Depositary set forth in this
Section 5.3 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and any succession
of any Depositary.
The Depositary, its parent, affiliates or subsidiaries, the Depositary's Agents and the Registrar may own, buy, sell and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its affiliates and in Receipts or Depositary Shares or become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company or its affiliates may be interested or contract with or lend money to any such person or otherwise act as fully or as freely as if it were not the Depositary, parent, affiliate or subsidiary or Depositary's Agent or Registrar hereunder. The Depositary may also act as trustee, transfer agent or registrar of any of the securities of the Company and its affiliates.
It is intended that neither the Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor the Registrar, acting as the Depositary's Agent or Registrar, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be an "issuer" of the securities under the federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws, it being expressly understood and agreed that the Depositary, any Depositary's Agent and the
Registrar are acting only in a ministerial capacity as Depositary or Registrar for the Stock.
Neither the Depositary (or its officers, directors, employees or agents) nor any Depositary's Agent nor the Registrar makes any representation or has any responsibility as to the validity of the registration statement pursuant to which the Depositary Shares are registered under the Securities Act, the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts (except for its counter-signatures thereon) or any instruments referred to therein or herein, or as to the correctness of any statement made therein or herein.
The Depositary assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the description that appears in the Receipts. Notwithstanding any other provision herein or in the Receipts, the Depositary makes no warranties or representations as to the validity or genuineness of any Stock at any time deposited with the Depositary hereunder or of the Depositary Shares, as to the validity or sufficiency of this Deposit Agreement, as to the value of the Depositary Shares or as to any right, title or interest of the record holders of Receipts in and to the Depositary Shares. The Depositary shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of the Depositary Shares or the Receipts or the proceeds thereof.
SECTION 5.4. Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor Depositary. The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary hereunder by delivering notice of its election to do so to the Company, such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided.
The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by notice of such removal delivered to the Depositary, such removal to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided.
In case at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be removed, the Company shall, within 60 days after the delivery of the notice of resignation or removal, as the case may be, appoint a successor Depositary, which shall be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States of America and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $150,000,000. If no successor Depositary shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 days after delivery of such notice, the resigning or removed Depositary may peti-
tion any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Depositary. Every successor Depositary shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Company an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Depositary, without any further act or deed, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor and for all purposes shall be the Depositary under this Deposit Agreement, and such predecessor, upon payment of all sums due it and on the written request of the Company, shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title and interest in the Stock and any moneys or property held hereunder to such successor, and shall deliver to such successor a list of the record holders of all outstanding Receipts and such records, books and other information in its possession relating thereto. Any successor Depositary shall promptly mail notice of its appointment to the record holders of Receipts.
Any corporation into or with which the Depositary may be merged, consolidated or converted shall be the successor of such Depositary without the execution or filing of any document or any further act, and notice thereof shall not be required hereunder. Such successor Depositary may authenticate the Receipts in the name of the predecessor Depositary or in the name of the successor Depositary.
SECTION 5.5. Corporate Notices and Reports. The Company agrees that it will deliver to the Depositary, and the Depositary will, promptly after receipt thereof, transmit to the record holders of Receipts, in each case at the addresses recorded in the Depositary's books, copies of all notices and reports (including without limitation financial statements) required by law or by the rules of any national securities exchange upon which the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts are listed, to be furnished to the record holders of Receipts. Such transmission will be at the Company's expense and the Company will provide the Depositary with such number of copies of such documents as the Depositary may reasonably request.
SECTION 5.6. Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify the Depositary, any Depositary's Agent and the Registrar against, and hold each of them harmless from, any loss, liability or expense (including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself) which may arise out of acts performed or omitted in connection with this Deposit Agreement and the Receipts by the Depositary, any Registrar or any of their respective agents (including any Depositary's Agent), except for any liabil-
ity arising out of negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the respective parts of any such person or persons. The obligations of the Company set forth in this Section 5.6 shall survive any termination of this Agreement or any succession of any Depositary or Depositary's Agent.
SECTION 5.7. Charges and Expenses. The Company shall pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. The Company shall pay charges of the Depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the Stock and the initial issuance of the Depositary Shares, all withdrawals of shares of the Stock by owners of Depositary Shares, and any redemption of the Stock at the option of the Company. All other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges shall be at the expense of holders of Depositary Shares. If, at the request of a holder of Receipts, the Depositary incurs charges or expenses for which it is not otherwise liable hereunder, such holder will be liable for such charges and expenses. All other charges and expenses of the Depositary and any Depositary's Agent hereunder (including, in each case, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incident to the performance of their respective obligations hereunder will be paid upon consultation and agreement between the Depositary and the Company as to the amount and nature of such charges and expenses. The Depositary shall present its statement for charges and expenses to the Company at such intervals as the Company and the Depositary may agree.
SECTION 5.8. Tax Compliance. The Depositary, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Company, will comply with all applicable certification, information reporting and withholding (including "backup" withholding) requirements imposed by applicable tax laws, regulations or administrative practice with respect to (i) any payments made with respect to the Depositary Shares or (ii) the issuance, delivery, holding, transfer, redemption or exercise of rights under the Depositary Receipts or the Depositary Shares. Such compliance shall include, without limitation, the preparation and timely filing of required returns and the timely payment of all amounts required to be withheld to the appropriate taxing authority or its designated agent.
The Depositary shall comply with any direction received from the Company
with respect to the application of such requirements to particular payments or
holders or in other particular circumstances, and may for purposes of this
Agreement rely on any such direction in accordance with the provisions of
Section 5.3 hereof.
The Depositary shall maintain all appropriate records documenting compliance with such requirements, and shall make such records available on request to the Company or to its authorized representatives.
ARTICLE VI
AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION
SECTION 6.1. Amendment. The form of the Receipts and any provisions of
this Deposit Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended by
agreement between the Company and the Depositary in any respect which they may
deem necessary or desirable; provided, however, that no such amendment (other
than any change in the fees) which shall materially adversely alter the rights
of the holders of Receipts shall be effective unless such amendment shall have
been approved by the holders of at least a majority of the Depositary Shares
then outstanding. Every holder of an outstanding Receipt at the time any such
amendment becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such
Receipt, to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. Subject to

any money or other property, if any, represented thereby, except in order to
comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law.

This Deposit Agreement will automatically terminate after (i) all outstanding Depositary Shares have been redeemed pursuant to Section 2.8 or (ii) there shall have been made a final distribution in respect of the Stock in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company and such distribution shall have been distributed to the holders of Depositary Receipts pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, as applicable.

First Industrial, L.P., a limited partnership duly organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (hereinafter referred to as the "Operating Partnership," which term includes any successor entity under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum of $50,000,000, on the Stated Maturity Date specified above (or any Redemption Date or Repayment Date, each as defined on the reverse hereof) (each such Stated Maturity Date, Redemption Date or Repayment Date being hereinafter referred to as the "Maturity Date" with respect to the principal repayable on such date) and to pay interest thereon, at the Interest Rate per annum specific above, until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment, and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at the Default Rate per annum specified above on any overdue principal, premium and/or interest, including any overdue sinking fund or redemption payment. The Operating Partnership will pay interest in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, if any, specified above (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing with the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Maturity Date; provided, however, that if the Original Issue Date occurs between a Record Date (as defined below) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date to the holder of this Note on the Record Date with respect to such second Interest Payment Date. Interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
Interest on this Note will accrue from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from, and including, the Original Issue Date if no interest has been paid or duly provided for) to, but excluding, the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, an "Interest Period"). The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions described herein, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day, as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (the "Record Date"); provided, however, that interest payable on the Maturity Date will be payable to the person to whom the principal hereto and premium, if any, hereon shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for ("Defaulted Interest") will forthwith cease to be payable to the holder on any Record Date, and shall be paid to the person in
whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a special record date (the "Special Record Date") for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee hereinafter referred to, notice whereof shall be given to the holder of this Note by the Trustee not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which this Note may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided for in the Indenture.
Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note due on the Maturity Date or any prior date on which the principal or an installment of principal of this Note becomes due and payable, whether by the declaration of acceleration or otherwise, will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note (and, with respect to any applicable repayment of this Note, upon presentation and surrender of this Note and a duly completed election form as contemplated on the reverse hereof) at the office or agency maintained by the Operating Partnership for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, currently the office of the Trustee located at 100 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005, or at such other paying agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, as the Operating Partnership may determine; provided, however, that if the Specified Currency specified above is other than United States dollars and such payment is to be made in the Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such payment may be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank designated by the holder hereof at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that this Note (and, if applicable, a duly completed repayment election form) is presented and surrendered at the aforementioned office or agency maintained by the Operating Partnership in time for the Trustee to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date will be made at the aforementioned office or agency maintained by the Operating Partnership or, at the option of the Operating Partnership, by check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register maintained by the Trustee; provided, however, that a holder of U.S.$10,000,000 (or, if the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency) or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes (whether having identical or different terms and provisions) will be entitled to receive interest payments on any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date by wire transfer of immedi-
ately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 calendar days prior to such Interest Payment Date. Any such wire transfer instructions received by the Trustee shall remain in effect until revoked by such holder.
If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
As used herein, "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The City of New York; provided, however, that if the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, such day is also not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center (as defined below) of the country issuing the Specified Currency (or, if the Specified Currency is European Currency Units ("ECU"), such day is not a day that appears as an ECU no-settlement day on the display designated as "ISDE" on the Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service (or a day so designated by the ECU Banking Association), or, if ECU non-settlement days do not appear on that page (and are not so designated), is not a day on which payments in ECU cannot be settled in the international interbank market). Principal Financial Center means the capital city of the country issuing the Specified Currency, except that with respect to United States dollars, Australian dollars, Deutsche marks, Dutch guilders, Italian lire, Swiss francs and ECU, the Principal Financial Center shall be The City of New York, Sydney, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Milan, Zurich and Luxembourg, respectively.
The Operating Partnership is obligated to make payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency (or, if the Specified Currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, in such other coin or currency of the country which issued the Specified Currency as at the time of such payment is legal tender for the payment of such debts). If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, except as provided below, any such amounts
so payable by the Operating Partnership will be converted by the Exchange Rate Agent specified above into United States dollars for payment to the holder of this Note.
If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the holder of this Note may elect to receive such amounts in such Specified Currency. If the holder of this Note shall not have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency, any United States dollar amount to be received by the holder of this Note will be based on the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Operating Partnership for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of such Specified Currency payable to all holders of Foreign Currency Notes scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the holder of this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.
If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to the Trustee at its corporate trust Office in The City of New York on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Such written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by cable, telex or other form of facsimile transmission. The holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Trustee, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Trustee on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be.
If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars or a composite currency and the holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency and if the Specified Currency is not available due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Operating Partnership, the Operating Partnership will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the second Business Day prior to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate or as otherwise specified on the face hereof. The "Market Exchange Rate" for the Specified Currency means the noon dollar buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers for such Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes by (or if not so certified, as otherwise determined by) the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any payment made under such circumstances in United States dollars will not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to this Note.
If the Specified Currency is a composite currency and the holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency and if such composite currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Operating Partnership, then the Operating Partnership will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars. The amount of each payment in United States dollars shall be computed by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis of the equivalent of the composite currency in United States dollars. The component currencies of the composite currency for this purpose (collectively, the "Component Currencies" and each, a "Component Currency") shall be the currency amounts that were components of the composite currency as of the last day on which the composite currency was used. The equivalent of the composite currency in United States dollars shal1 be calculated by aggregating the United States dollar equivalents of the Component Currencies. The United States dollar equivalent of each of the Component Currencies shall be determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate for each such Component Currency, or as otherwise specified on the face hereof.
If the official unit of any Component Currency is altered by way of combination or subdivision, the number of units of the currency as a Component Currency shall be divided or multiplied in the same proportion. If two or more Component Currencies are consolidated into a single currency, the amounts of those currencies as Component Currencies shall be replaced by an amount in such single currency equal to the sum of the amounts of the consolidated Component Currencies expressed in such single currency. If any Component Currency is divided into two or more currencies, the amount of the original Component Currency shall be replaced by the amounts of such two or more currencies, the sum of which shall be equal to the amount of the original Component Currency.
All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the holder of this Note.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof and, if so specified above on the face hereof, in the Addendum hereto, which further provisions shall have the same force and effect as if set forth on the face hereof.
Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained herein, if the face of this Note specifies that an Addendum is attached hereto or that "Other/Additional Provisions" apply to this Note, this Note shall be subject to the terms set forth in such Addendum or such "Other/Additional Provisions."
Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, First Industrial, L.P. has caused this Note to be duly executed under its seal.

FIRST INDUSTRIAL, L.P.
MEDIUM-TERM NOTE
(Fixed Rate)
This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities (the "Securities") of the Operating Partnership issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of May 13, 1997, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time (the "Indenture"), between the Operating Partnership and First Trust National Association, as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Operating Partnership, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series of Securities designated as "Medium-Term Notes Due Nine Months or More from Date of Issue" (the "Notes"). All terms used but not defined in this Note or in an Addendum hereto shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture or on the face hereof, as the case may be.
This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of U.S. $1,000 and integral multiples thereof or the minimum Authorized Denomination specified on the face hereof.
This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless otherwise specified on the face hereof in accordance with the provisions of the following two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or repayable prior to the Stated Maturity Date.
This Note will be subject to redemption at the option of the Operating Partnership on any date on and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, specified on the face hereof, in whole or from time to time in part in increments of U.S. $1,000 or the minimum Authorized Denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S. $1,000 or such minimum Authorized Denomination), at the Redemption Price (as defined below), together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption (each, a "Redemption Date"), on notice given not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the Redemption Date and in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. The "Redemption Price" shall initially be the Initial Redemption Percentage specified on the face
hereof multiplied by the unpaid principal amount of this Note to be redeemed. The Initial Redemption Percentage shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified on the face hereof until the Redemption Price is 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be redeemed. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this Note shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
This Note will be subject to repayment by the Operating Partnership at the option of the holder hereof on the Optional Repayment Date(s), if any, specified on the face hereof, in whole or in part in increments of U.S.$1,000 or the minimum Authorized Denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000 or such minimum Authorized Denomination), at a repayment price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be repaid, together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for repayment (each, a "Repayment Date"). For this Note to be repaid, the Trustee must receive at its office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, referred to on the face hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to the Repayment Date (i) this Note and the form hereon entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or a letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting forth the name of the holder hereof, the principal amount of this Note, the principal amount of this Note to be repaid, the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of this Note, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby, and a guarantee that this Note, together with the form hereon entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed, will be received by the Trustee not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter, provided that such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective if this Note and duly completed form are received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day. Exercise of such repayment option by the holder hereof will be irrevocable. In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unrepaid portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this Note shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified on the face hereof, the amount payable to the holder of this Note in
the event of redemption, repayment or acceleration of maturity of this Note will be equal to the sum of (i) the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (increased by any accruals of the Discount, as defined below) and, in the event of any redemption of this Note (if applicable), multiplied by the Initial Redemption Percentage (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if applicable) and (ii) any unpaid interest on this Note accrued from the Original Issue Date to the Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity, as the case may be. The difference between the Issue Price and 100% of the principal amount of this Note is referred to herein as the "Discount."
For purposes of determining the amount of Discount that has accrued as of any Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity of this Note, such Discount will be accrued using a constant yield method. The constant yield will be calculated using a 30-day month, 360-day year convention, a compounding period that, except for the Initial Period (as defined below), corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment Dates (with ratable accruals within a compounding period), a coupon rate equal to the initial coupon rate applicable to this Note and an assumption that the maturity of this Note will not be accelerated. If the period from the Original Issue Date to the initial Interest Payment Date (the "Initial Period") is shorter than the compounding period for this Note, a proportionate amount of the yield for an entire compounding-period will be accrued. If the Initial Period is longer than the compounding period, then such period will be divided into a regular compounding period and a short period, with the short period being treated as provided in the preceding sentence.
If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of (i) the entire indebtedness of the Notes or (ii) certain covenants and Events of Default with respect to the Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to the Notes.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Operating Partnership and the rights of the holders of the Securities at any time by the Operating Partnership and the
Trustee with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of all Securities at the time outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the holders of all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Operating Partnership with certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, in certain instances, to waive, on behalf of all of the holders of Securities of such series, certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange heretofore or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Operating Partnership, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note at the times, places and rate or formula, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register of the Operating Partnership upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Operating Partnership in any place where the principal hereof and any premium or interest hereon are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Operating Partnership and the Security Registrar, duly executed by, the holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations but otherwise having the same terms and conditions, as requested by the holder hereof surrendering the same.
No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Operating Partnership may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Operating Partnership, the Trustee and any agent of the Operating Partnership or the Trustee may treat the holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Operating Partnership, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
This Note and all documents, agreements, understandings and arrangements relating to any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby have been executed or entered into by the undersigned in his/her capacity as an officer of the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership which has been formed as a Delaware limited partnership, and not individually, and neither the general partner, officers, employees or limited partners of the Operating Partnership shall be bound or have any personal liability hereunder or thereunder. The holder of this Note by accepting this Note waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of this Note. Each party hereto shall look solely to the assets of the Operating Partnership for satisfaction of any liability of the Operating Partnership in respect of this Note and all documents, agreements, understandings and arrangements relating to any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby and will not seek recourse or commence any action against any of the trustees, officers or shareholders of the Operating Partnership or any of their personal assets for the performance or payment of any obligation hereunder or thereunder. The foregoing shall also apply to any future documents, agreements, understandings, arrangements and transactions between the parties hereto.
The Indenture and this Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws.

First Industrial, L.P., a limited partnership duly organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (hereinafter referred to as the "Operating Partnership," which term includes any successor entity under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum of $150,000,000, on the Stated Maturity Date specified above (or any Redemption Date or Repayment Date, each as defined on the reverse hereof) (each such Stated Maturity Date, Redemption Date or Repayment Date being hereinafter referred to as the "Maturity Date" with respect to the principal repayable on such date) and to pay interest thereon, at the Interest Rate per annum specific above, until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment, and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at the Default Rate per annum specified above on any overdue principal, premium and/or interest, including any overdue sinking fund or redemption payment. The Operating Partnership will pay interest in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, if any, specified above (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing with the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Maturity Date; provided, however, that if the Original Issue Date occurs between a Record Date (as defined below) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date to the holder of this Note on the Record Date with respect to such second Interest Payment Date. Interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
Interest on this Note will accrue from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from, and including, the Original Issue Date if no interest has been paid or duly provided for) to, but excluding, the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, an "Interest Period"). The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions described herein, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day, as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (the "Record Date"); provided, however, that interest payable on the Maturity Date will be payable to the person to whom the principal hereto and premium, if any, hereon shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for ("Defaulted Interest") will forthwith cease to be payable to the holder on any Record Date, and shall be paid to the person in
whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a special record date (the "Special Record Date") for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee hereinafter referred to, notice whereof shall be given to the holder of this Note by the Trustee not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which this Note may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided for in the Indenture.
Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note due on the Maturity Date or any prior date on which the principal or an installment of principal of this Note becomes due and payable, whether by the declaration of acceleration or otherwise, will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note (and, with respect to any applicable repayment of this Note, upon presentation and surrender of this Note and a duly completed election form as contemplated on the reverse hereof) at the office or agency maintained by the Operating Partnership for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, currently the office of the Trustee located at 100 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005, or at such other paying agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, as the Operating Partnership may determine; provided, however, that if the Specified Currency specified above is other than United States dollars and such payment is to be made in the Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such payment may be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank designated by the holder hereof at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that this Note (and, if applicable, a duly completed repayment election form) is presented and surrendered at the aforementioned office or agency maintained by the Operating Partnership in time for the Trustee to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date will be made at the aforementioned office or agency maintained by the Operating Partnership or, at the option of the Operating Partnership, by check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register maintained by the Trustee; provided, however, that a holder of U.S.$10,000,000 (or, if the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency) or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes (whether having identical or different terms and provisions) will be entitled to receive interest payments on any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date by wire transfer of immedi-
ately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 calendar days prior to such Interest Payment Date. Any such wire transfer instructions received by the Trustee shall remain in effect until revoked by such holder.
If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
As used herein, "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The City of New York; provided, however, that if the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, such day is also not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center (as defined below) of the country issuing the Specified Currency (or, if the Specified Currency is European Currency Units ("ECU"), such day is not a day that appears as an ECU no-settlement day on the display designated as "ISDE" on the Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service (or a day so designated by the ECU Banking Association), or, if ECU non-settlement days do not appear on that page (and are not so designated), is not a day on which payments in ECU cannot be settled in the international interbank market). Principal Financial Center means the capital city of the country issuing the Specified Currency, except that with respect to United States dollars, Australian dollars, Deutsche marks, Dutch guilders, Italian lire, Swiss francs and ECU, the Principal Financial Center shall be The City of New York, Sydney, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Milan, Zurich and Luxembourg, respectively.
The Operating Partnership is obligated to make payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency (or, if the Specified Currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, in such other coin or currency of the country which issued the Specified Currency as at the time of such payment is legal tender for the payment of such debts). If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, except as provided below, any such amounts
so payable by the Operating Partnership will be converted by the Exchange Rate Agent specified above into United States dollars for payment to the holder of this Note.
If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the holder of this Note may elect to receive such amounts in such Specified Currency. If the holder of this Note shall not have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency, any United States dollar amount to be received by the holder of this Note will be based on the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Operating Partnership for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of such Specified Currency payable to all holders of Foreign Currency Notes scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the holder of this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.
If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to the Trustee at its corporate trust Office in The City of New York on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Such written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by cable, telex or other form of facsimile transmission. The holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Trustee, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Trustee on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be.
If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars or a composite currency and the holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency and if the Specified Currency is not available due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Operating Partnership, the Operating Partnership will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the second Business Day prior to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate or as otherwise specified on the face hereof. The "Market Exchange Rate" for the Specified Currency means the noon dollar buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers for such Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes by (or if not so certified, as otherwise determined by) the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any payment made under such circumstances in United States dollars will not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to this Note.
If the Specified Currency is a composite currency and the holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency and if such composite currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Operating Partnership, then the Operating Partnership will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars. The amount of each payment in United States dollars shall be computed by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis of the equivalent of the composite currency in United States dollars. The component currencies of the composite currency for this purpose (collectively, the "Component Currencies" and each, a "Component Currency") shall be the currency amounts that were components of the composite currency as of the last day on which the composite currency was used. The equivalent of the composite currency in United States dollars shall be calculated by aggregating the United States dollar equivalents of the Component Currencies. The United States dollar equivalent of each of the Component Currencies shall be determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate for each such Component Currency, or as otherwise specified on the face hereof.
If the official unit of any Component Currency is altered by way of combination or subdivision, the number of units of the currency as a Component Currency shall be divided or multiplied in the same proportion. If two or more Component Currencies are consolidated into a single currency, the amounts of those currencies as Component Currencies shall be replaced by an amount in such single currency equal to the sum of the amounts of the consolidated Component Currencies expressed in such single currency. If any Component Currency is divided into two or more currencies, the amount of the original Component Currency shall be replaced by the amounts of such two or more currencies, the sum of which shall be equal to the amount of the original Component Currency.
All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the holder of this Note.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof and, if so specified above on the face hereof, in the Addendum hereto, which further provisions shall have the same force and effect as if set forth on the face hereof.
Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained herein, if the face of this Note specifies that an Addendum is attached hereto or that "Other/Additional Provisions" apply to this Note, this Note shall be subject to the terms set forth in such Addendum or such "Other/Additional Provisions."
Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, First Industrial, L.P. has caused this Note to be duly executed under its seal.

REVERSE OF NOTE
FIRST INDUSTRIAL, L.P.
MEDIUM-TERM NOTE
(Fixed Rate)
This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities (the "Securities") of the Operating Partnership issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of May 13, 1997, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time (the "Indenture"), between the Operating Partnership and First Trust National Association, as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Operating Partnership, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series of Securities designated as "Medium-Term Notes Due Nine Months or More from Date of Issue" (the "Notes"). All terms used but not defined in this Note or in an Addendum hereto shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture or on the face hereof, as the case may be.
This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of U.S. $1,000 and integral multiples thereof or the minimum Authorized Denomination specified on the face hereof.
This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless otherwise specified on the face hereof in accordance with the provisions of the following two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or repayable prior to the Stated Maturity Date.
This Note will be subject to redemption at the option of the Operating Partnership on any date on and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, specified on the face hereof, in whole or from time to time in part in increments of U.S. $1,000 or the minimum Authorized Denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S. $1,000 or such minimum Authorized Denomination), at the Redemption Price (as defined below), together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption (each, a "Redemption Date"), on notice given not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the Redemption Date and in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. The "Redemption Price" shall initially be the Initial Redemption Percentage specified on the face
hereof multiplied by the unpaid principal amount of this Note to be redeemed. The Initial Redemption Percentage shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified on the face hereof until the Redemption Price is 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be redeemed. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this Note shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
This Note will be subject to repayment by the Operating Partnership at the option of the holder hereof on the Optional Repayment Date(s), if any, specified on the face hereof, in whole or in part in increments of U.S.$1,000 or the minimum Authorized Denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000 or such minimum Authorized Denomination), at a repayment price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be repaid, together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for repayment (each, a "Repayment Date"). For this Note to be repaid, the Trustee must receive at its office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, referred to on the face hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to the Repayment Date (i) this Note and the form hereon entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or a letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting forth the name of the holder hereof, the principal amount of this Note, the principal amount of this Note to be repaid, the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of this Note, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby, and a guarantee that this Note, together with the form hereon entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed, will be received by the Trustee not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter, provided that such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective if this Note and duly completed form are received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day. Exercise of such repayment option by the holder hereof will be irrevocable. In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unrepaid portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this Note shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified on the face hereof, the amount payable to the holder of this Note in
the event of redemption, repayment or acceleration of maturity of this Note will be equal to the sum of (i) the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (increased by any accruals of the Discount, as defined below) and, in the event of any redemption of this Note (if applicable), multiplied by the Initial Redemption Percentage (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if applicable) and (ii) any unpaid interest on this Note accrued from the Original Issue Date to the Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity, as the case may be. The difference between the Issue Price and 100% of the principal amount of this Note is referred to herein as the "Discount."
For purposes of determining the amount of Discount that has accrued as of any Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity of this Note, such Discount will be accrued using a constant yield method. The constant yield will be calculated using a 30-day month, 360-day year convention, a compounding period that, except for the Initial Period (as defined below), corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment Dates (with ratable accruals within a compounding period), a coupon rate equal to the initial coupon rate applicable to this Note and an assumption that the maturity of this Note will not be accelerated. If the period from the Original Issue Date to the initial Interest Payment Date (the "Initial Period") is shorter than the compounding period for this Note, a proportionate amount of the yield for an entire compounding-period will be accrued. If the Initial Period is longer than the compounding period, then such period will be divided into a regular compounding period and a short period, with the short period being treated as provided in the preceding sentence.
If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of (i) the entire indebtedness of the Notes or (ii) certain covenants and Events of Default with respect to the Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to the Notes.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Operating Partnership and the rights of the holders of the Securities at any time by the Operating Partnership and the
Trustee with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of all Securities at the time outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the holders of all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Operating Partnership with certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, in certain instances, to waive, on behalf of all of the holders of Securities of such series, certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange heretofore or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Operating Partnership, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note at the times, places and rate or formula, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register of the Operating Partnership upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Operating Partnership in any place where the principal hereof and any premium or interest hereon are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Operating Partnership and the Security Registrar, duly executed by, the holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations but otherwise having the same terms and conditions, as requested by the holder hereof surrendering the same.
No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Operating Partnership may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Operating Partnership, the Trustee and any agent of the Operating Partnership or the Trustee may treat the holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Operating Partnership, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
This Note and all documents, agreements, understandings and arrangements relating to any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby have been executed or entered into by the undersigned in his/her capacity as an officer of the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership which has been formed as a Delaware limited partnership, and not individually, and neither the general partner, officers, employees or limited partners of the Operating Partnership shall be bound or have any personal liability hereunder or thereunder. The holder of this Note by accepting this Note waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of this Note. Each party hereto shall look solely to the assets of the Operating Partnership for satisfaction of any liability of the Operating Partnership in respect of this Note and all documents, agreements, understandings and arrangements relating to any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby and will not seek recourse or commence any action against any of the trustees, officers or shareholders of the Operating Partnership or any of their personal assets for the performance or payment of any obligation hereunder or thereunder. The foregoing shall also apply to any future documents, agreements, understandings, arrangements and transactions between the parties hereto.
The Indenture and this Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws.

First Industrial, L.P., a limited partnership duly organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (hereinafter referred to as the "Operating Partnership," which term includes any successor entity under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum of $100,000,000, on the Stated Maturity Date specified above (or any Redemption Date or Repayment Date, each as defined on the reverse hereof) (each such Stated Maturity Date, Redemption Date or Repayment Date being hereinafter referred to as the "Maturity Date" with respect to the principal repayable on such date) and to pay interest thereon, at the Interest Rate per annum specific above, until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment, and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at the Default Rate per annum specified above on any overdue principal, premium and/or interest, including any overdue sinking fund or redemption payment. The Operating Partnership will pay interest in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, if any, specified above (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing with the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Maturity Date; provided, however, that if the Original Issue Date occurs between a Record Date (as defined below) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date to the holder of this Note on the Record Date with respect to such second Interest Payment Date. Interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
Interest on this Note will accrue from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from, and including, the Original Issue Date if no interest has been paid or duly provided for) to, but excluding, the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, an "Interest Period"). The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions described herein, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day, as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (the "Record Date"); provided, however, that interest payable on the Maturity Date will be payable to the person to whom the principal hereto and premium, if any, hereon shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for ("Defaulted Interest") will forthwith cease to be payable to the holder on any Record Date, and shall be paid to the person in
whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a special record date (the "Special Record Date") for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee hereinafter referred to, notice whereof shall be given to the holder of this Note by the Trustee not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which this Note may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided for in the Indenture.
Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note due on the Maturity Date or any prior date on which the principal or an installment of principal of this Note becomes due and payable, whether by the declaration of acceleration or otherwise, will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note (and, with respect to any applicable repayment of this Note, upon presentation and surrender of this Note and a duly completed election form as contemplated on the reverse hereof) at the office or agency maintained by the Operating Partnership for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, currently the office of the Trustee located at 100 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005, or at such other paying agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, as the Operating Partnership may determine; provided, however, that if the Specified Currency specified above is other than United States dollars and such payment is to be made in the Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such payment may be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank designated by the holder hereof at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that this Note (and, if applicable, a duly completed repayment election form) is presented and surrendered at the aforementioned office or agency maintained by the Operating Partnership in time for the Trustee to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date will be made at the aforementioned office or agency maintained by the Operating Partnership or, at the option of the Operating Partnership, by check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register maintained by the Trustee; provided, however, that a holder of U.S.$10,000,000 (or, if the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency) or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes (whether having identical or different terms and provisions) will be entitled to receive interest payments on any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date by wire transfer of immedi-
ately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 calendar days prior to such Interest Payment Date. Any such wire transfer instructions received by the Trustee shall remain in effect until revoked by such holder.
If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
As used herein, "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The City of New York; provided, however, that if the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, such day is also not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center (as defined below) of the country issuing the Specified Currency (or, if the Specified Currency is European Currency Units ("ECU"), such day is not a day that appears as an ECU no-settlement day on the display designated as "ISDE" on the Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service (or a day so designated by the ECU Banking Association), or, if ECU non-settlement days do not appear on that page (and are not so designated), is not a day on which payments in ECU cannot be settled in the international interbank market). Principal Financial Center means the capital city of the country issuing the Specified Currency, except that with respect to United States dollars, Australian dollars, Deutsche marks, Dutch guilders, Italian lire, Swiss francs and ECU, the Principal Financial Center shall be The City of New York, Sydney, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Milan, Zurich and Luxembourg, respectively.
The Operating Partnership is obligated to make payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency (or, if the Specified Currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, in such other coin or currency of the country which issued the Specified Currency as at the time of such payment is legal tender for the payment of such debts). If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, except as provided below, any such amounts
so payable by the Operating Partnership will be converted by the Exchange Rate Agent specified above into United States dollars for payment to the holder of this Note.
If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the holder of this Note may elect to receive such amounts in such Specified Currency. If the holder of this Note shall not have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency, any United States dollar amount to be received by the holder of this Note will be based on the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Operating Partnership for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of such Specified Currency payable to all holders of Foreign Currency Notes scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the holder of this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.
If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to the Trustee at its corporate trust Office in The City of New York on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Such written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by cable, telex or other form of facsimile transmission. The holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Trustee, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Trustee on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be.
If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars or a composite currency and the holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency and if the Specified Currency is not available due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Operating Partnership, the Operating Partnership will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the second Business Day prior to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate or as otherwise specified on the face hereof. The "Market Exchange Rate" for the Specified Currency means the noon dollar buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers for such Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes by (or if not so certified, as otherwise determined by) the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any payment made under such circumstances in United States dollars will not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to this Note.
If the Specified Currency is a composite currency and the holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency and if such composite currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Operating Partnership, then the Operating Partnership will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars. The amount of each payment in United States dollars shall be computed by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis of the equivalent of the composite currency in United States dollars. The component currencies of the composite currency for this purpose (collectively, the "Component Currencies" and each, a "Component Currency") shall be the currency amounts that were components of the composite currency as of the last day on which the composite currency was used. The equivalent of the composite currency in United States dollars shal1 be calculated by aggregating the United States dollar equivalents of the Component Currencies. The United States dollar equivalent of each of the Component Currencies shall be determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate for each such Component Currency, or as otherwise specified on the face hereof.
If the official unit of any Component Currency is altered by way of combination or subdivision, the number of units of the currency as a Component Currency shall be divided or multiplied in the same proportion. If two or more Component Currencies are consolidated into a single currency, the amounts of those currencies as Component Currencies shall be replaced by an amount in such single currency equal to the sum of the amounts of the consolidated Component Currencies expressed in such single currency. If any Component Currency is divided into two or more currencies, the amount of the original Component Currency shall be replaced by the amounts of such two or more currencies, the sum of which shall be equal to the amount of the original Component Currency.
All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the holder of this Note.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof and, if so specified above on the face hereof, in the Addendum hereto, which further provisions shall have the same force and effect as if set forth on the face hereof.
Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained herein, if the face of this Note specifies that an Addendum is attached hereto or that "Other/Additional Provisions" apply to this Note, this Note shall be subject to the terms set forth in such Addendum or such "Other/Additional Provisions."
Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee or its Authenticating Agent by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, First Industrial, L.P. has caused this Note to be duly executed under its seal.

REVERSE OF NOTE
FIRST INDUSTRIAL, L.P.
MEDIUM-TERM NOTE
(Fixed Rate)
This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities (the "Securities") of the Operating Partnership issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of May 13, 1997, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time (the "Indenture"), between the Operating Partnership and First Trust National Association, as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Operating Partnership, the Trustee and the holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series of Securities designated as "Medium-Term Notes Due Nine Months or More from Date of Issue" (the "Notes"). All terms used but not defined in this Note or in an Addendum hereto shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture or on the face hereof, as the case may be.
This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of U.S. $1,000 and integral multiples thereof or the minimum Authorized Denomination specified on the face hereof. This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless otherwise specified on the face hereof in accordance with the provisions of the following two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or repayable prior to the Stated Maturity Date.
This Note will be subject to redemption at the option of the Operating Partnership on any date on and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, specified on the face hereof, in whole or from time to time in part in increments of U.S. $1,000 or the minimum Authorized Denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S. $1,000 or such minimum Authorized Denomination), at the Redemption Price (as defined below), together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption (each, a "Redemption Date"), on notice given not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the Redemption Date and in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. The "Redemption Price" shall initially be the Initial Redemption Percentage specified on the face
hereof multiplied by the unpaid principal amount of this Note to be redeemed. The Initial Redemption Percentage shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified on the face hereof until the Redemption Price is 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be redeemed. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this Note shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
This Note will be subject to repayment by the Operating Partnership at the option of the holder hereof on the Optional Repayment Date(s), if any, specified on the face hereof, in whole or in part in increments of U.S.$1,000 or the minimum Authorized Denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000 or such minimum Authorized Denomination), at a repayment price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be repaid, together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for repayment (each, a "Repayment Date"). For this Note to be repaid, the Trustee must receive at its office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, referred to on the face hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to the Repayment Date (i) this Note and the form hereon entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or a letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting forth the name of the holder hereof, the principal amount of this Note, the principal amount of this Note to be repaid, the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of this Note, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby, and a guarantee that this Note, together with the form hereon entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed, will be received by the Trustee not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter, provided that such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective if this Note and duly completed form are received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day. Exercise of such repayment option by the holder hereof will be irrevocable. In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unrepaid portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this Note shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified on the face hereof, the amount payable to the holder of this Note in
the event of redemption, repayment or acceleration of maturity of this Note will be equal to the sum of (i) the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (increased by any accruals of the Discount, as defined below) and, in the event of any redemption of this Note (if applicable), multiplied by the Initial Redemption Percentage (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if applicable) and (ii) any unpaid interest on this Note accrued from the Original Issue Date to the Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity, as the case may be. The difference between the Issue Price and 100% of the principal amount of this Note is referred to herein as the "Discount."
For purposes of determining the amount of Discount that has accrued as of any Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity of this Note, such Discount will be accrued using a constant yield method. The constant yield will be calculated using a 30-day month, 360-day year convention, a compounding period that, except for the Initial Period (as defined below), corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment Dates (with ratable accruals within a compounding period), a coupon rate equal to the initial coupon rate applicable to this Note and an assumption that the maturity of this Note will not be accelerated. If the period from the Original Issue Date to the initial Interest Payment Date (the "Initial Period") is shorter than the compounding period for this Note, a proportionate amount of the yield for an entire compounding-period will be accrued. If the Initial Period is longer than the compounding period, then such period will be divided into a regular compounding period and a short period, with the short period being treated as provided in the preceding sentence.
If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of (i) the entire indebtedness of the Notes or (ii) certain covenants and Events of Default with respect to the Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to the Notes.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Operating Partnership and the rights of the holders of the Securities at any time by the Operating Partnership and the
Trustee with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of all Securities at the time outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the holders of all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Operating Partnership with certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, in certain instances, to waive, on behalf of all of the holders of Securities of such series, certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange heretofore or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Operating Partnership, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note at the times, places and rate or formula, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register of the Operating Partnership upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Operating Partnership in any place where the principal hereof and any premium or interest hereon are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Operating Partnership and the Security Registrar, duly executed by, the holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations but otherwise having the same terms and conditions, as requested by the holder hereof surrendering the same.
No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Operating Partnership may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Operating Partnership, the Trustee and any agent of the Operating Partnership or the Trustee may treat the holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Operating Partnership, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
This Note and all documents, agreements, understandings and arrangements relating to any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby have been executed or entered into by the undersigned in his/her capacity as an officer of the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership which has been formed as a Delaware limited partnership, and not individually, and neither the general partner, officers, employees or limited partners of the Operating Partnership shall be bound or have any personal liability hereunder or thereunder. The holder of this Note by accepting this Note waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of this Note. Each party hereto shall look solely to the assets of the Operating Partnership for satisfaction of any liability of the Operating Partnership in respect of this Note and all documents, agreements, understandings and arrangements relating to any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby and will not seek recourse or commence any action against any of the trustees, officers or shareholders of the Operating Partnership or any of their personal assets for the performance or payment of any obligation hereunder or thereunder. The foregoing shall also apply to any future documents, agreements, understandings, arrangements and transactions between the parties hereto.
The Indenture and this Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws.

and such Wholly-Owned Subsidiary has any Indebtedness for borrowed money (other than Indebtedness due to the Borrower). The Borrower acknowledges that Projects owned by the Guaranteeing Partnership will not constitute Unencumbered Assets until the PS Guaranty is released.
"Unimproved Land" means land which constitutes a single tax parcel or separately platted lot and on which construction of a bulk warehouse or light industrial building has not commenced.
"Value of Unencumbered Assets" means, as of any date, the amount determined by dividing the Property Operating Income for each Project which is an Unencumbered Asset as of such date for a calculation period which shall be either the immediately preceding full fiscal quarter or, if so requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, the then current partial fiscal quarter (as annualized) by the then-current "Average Residual Cap Rate for National Industrial Markets" described in the definition of Implied Capitalization Value (including the cap and floor on such rate described therein). If a Project has been acquired during such calculation period then Borrower shall be entitled to include pro forma Property Operating Income from such property for the entire calculation period in the foregoing calculation, except for purposes of the financial covenant comparing the Property Operating Income from Unencumbered Assets during a quarter to Debt Service for such quarter. If a Project is no longer owned as of the date of calculation, then no value shall be included based on capitalizing Property Operating Income from such Project, except for purposes of such financial covenant comparing the Property Operating Income from Unencumbered Assets during a quarter to Debt Service for such quarter.
"Wholly-Owned Subsidiary" means a member of the Consolidated Operating Partnership 100% of the ownership interests in which are owned, directly or indirectly, by the Borrower and the General Partner in the aggregate.
The foregoing definitions shall be equally applicable to both the singular and the plural forms of the defined terms.
1.2 Financial Standards. All financial computations required of a Person under this Agreement shall be made, and all financial information required under this Agreement shall be prepared, in accordance with GAAP, except that if any Person's financial statements are not audited, such Person's financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with the same sound accounting principles utilized in connection with the financial information submitted to Lenders with respect to the Borrower or the General Partner or the Properties in connection with this Agreement and shall be certified by an authorized representative of such Person.
ARTICLE II
THE FACILITY
2.1 The Facility.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of Borrower and General Partner contained herein, Lenders agree, severally and not jointly, to make Advances through the Administrative Agent to Borrower from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, provided that the making of any such Advance will not cause the then Allocated Facility Amount to exceed the then-current Aggregate Commitment. The Advances may be ratable Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advances, ratable LIBOR Advances, non-pro rata Swingline Loans or non-pro rata Competitive Bid Loans. Except as provided in Sections 2.15 and 2.16 hereof, each Lender shall fund its Percentage of each such Advance and no Lender will be required to fund any amounts which when aggregated with such Lender's Percentage of (i) all other Advances (other than Competitive Bid Loans) then outstanding, (ii) all Swingline Advances and (iii) all Facility Letter of Credit Obligations would exceed such Lender's then-current Commitment. This facility ("Facility") is a revolving credit facility and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Borrower may request Advances hereunder, repay such Advances and reborrow Advances at any time prior to the Maturity Date.
(b) The Facility created by this Agreement, and that Commitment of each Lender to lend hereunder, shall terminate on the Maturity Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(c) In no event shall the Aggregate Commitment exceed Three Hundred Million Dollars ($300,000,000).
2.2 Principal Payments and Extension Option. Any outstanding Advances (other than Competitive Bid Loans) and all other unpaid Obligations shall be paid in full by the Borrower on the Maturity Date. Each Competitive Bid Loan shall be paid in full on the last day of the applicable Interest Period as described in Section 2.16 below. The Maturity Date can be extended for extension periods of one year each upon notice to the Administrative Agent not later than April 30, 1999 with respect to the first such extension of the Maturity Date and not later than each April 30 thereafter for each subsequent extension of the Maturity Date (each an "Extension Notice"), if (i) no Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such notice and at the time of the then applicable Maturity Date, (ii) all of the Lenders agree to such extension, (iii) all prior extensions have been elected by the Borrower and accepted by the Lenders, and (iv) the Borrower pays, on the first business day of such extension period, an extension fee to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender equal to 0.05% of the then-current Commitment of such Lender. If the Borrower gives an Extension Notice to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders within 10 days of
receipt of such request. The Lenders shall have 30 days after receipt by each such Lender of an Extension Notice to notify Administrative Agent as to whether they accept or reject such extension request and Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and the Lenders promptly thereafter of the acceptance or rejection of the Lenders of Borrower's request to extend the Maturity Date. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied other than the condition requiring the consent of all Lenders, then Borrower shall have the right to replace any Lender that does not agree to the extension provided that Borrower notifies such Lender that it has elected to replace such Lender and notifies such Lender and the Administrative Agent of the identity of the proposed replacement Lender no later than the date six (6) months after the date of the applicable Extension Notice. The Lender being replaced shall assign its Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and its rights and obligations under this Facility to the replacement Lender in accordance with the requirements of Section 13.3 hereof and the replacement Lender shall assume such Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and the related obligations under this Facility prior to the Maturity Date to be extended, all pursuant to an assignment and assumption agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto. The purchase by the replacement Lender shall be at par (plus all accrued and unpaid interest and any other sums owed to such Lender being replaced hereunder) which shall be paid to the Lender being replaced upon the execution and delivery of the assignment.
2.3 Requests for Advances; Responsibility for Advances. Ratable Advances shall be made available to Borrower by Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.10(a) hereof. The obligation of each Lender to fund its Percentage of each ratable Advance shall be several and not joint.
2.4 Evidence of Credit Extensions. The Advances of each Lender outstanding at any time (other than Competitive Bid Loans) shall be evidenced by the Notes. Each Note executed by the Borrower shall be in a maximum principal amount equal to each Lender's Percentage of the current Aggregate Commitment. Each Lender shall record Advances and principal payments thereof on the schedule attached to its Note or, at its option, in its records, and each Lender's record thereof shall be conclusive absent Borrower furnishing to such Lender conclusive and irrefutable evidence of an error made by such Lender with respect to that Lender's records. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to make, or an error in making, a notation with respect to any Advance shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under the Notes to pay the amount actually owed by Borrower to Lenders.
2.5 Ratable and Non-Pro Rata Loans. Each Advance hereunder shall
consist of Loans made from the several Lenders ratably in proportion to their
Percentages, except for Swingline Loans which shall be made by the Swingline
Lender in accordance with Section 2.15 and Competitive Bid Loans which may be
made on a non-pro rata basis by one or more of the Lenders in accordance with
Section 2.16. The ratable Advances may be Adjusted Corporate Base Rate
Advances, LIBOR Advances or a combination thereof, selected by the Borrower in
accordance with Sections 2.9 and 2.10.
2.6 Applicable Margins. The CBR Applicable Margin and the LIBOR Applicable Margin to be used in calculating the interest rate applicable to different types of Advances shall vary from time to time in accordance with the ratings for Borrower's or General Partner's long-term, senior unsecured debt as follows:
Rating Period:
LIBOR CBR
Rating Level of Lower of Applicable Applicable
Two Highest Ratings* Margin Facility Fee Margin
A-/A3 0.65% 0.15% 0
BBB+/Baa1 0.70% 0.20% 0
BBB/Baa2 0.80% 0.20% 0
BBB-/Baa3 0.95% 0.25% 0
Below BBB- or Baa3 1.25% 0.25% 0.25%
|
* The letter categories used above are established by reference to S&P and Moody's categories, respectively. At least one of S&P or Moody's ratings must always be included in the two ratings used.
All margins and fees change as and when the applicable rating level changes. In the event an agency issues different ratings for the Borrower and the General Partner, then the higher rating of the two entities shall be deemed to be the rating from such agency.
2.7 Other Fees.
(a) The Borrower shall pay the fee due to the Administrative Agent in connection with Competitive Bid Loans as described in Section 2.16. The Borrower agrees to pay all other fees payable to the Administrative Agent and First Chicago Capital Markets, Inc. pursuant to the Borrower's prior letter agreements with them.
(b) The Borrower shall pay a fee ("Facility Fee") to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders equal to the applicable Facility Fee Rate in effect from time to time, as shown in Section 2.6 hereof, times the then Aggregate Commitment, to be shared among the Lenders based on their respective Percentages. The Facility Fee shall be paid quarterly in arrears.
2.8 Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each LIBOR Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $2,000,000 (and in multiples of $100,000 if in excess thereof), and each
Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 (and in multiples of $100,000 if in excess thereof), provided, however, that any Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advance may be in the amount of the unused Aggregate Commitment.
2.9 Interest.
(a) The outstanding principal balance under the Notes shall bear interest from time to time at a rate per annum equal to:
(i) the Adjusted Corporate Base Rate; or
(ii) at the election of Borrower with respect to all or portions of the Obligations, the Adjusted LIBOR Rate.
(b) All interest shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year. Interest accrued on each Advance shall be payable in arrears from time to time while such Advance is outstanding on each of (i) the first day of each calendar month, commencing with the first such date to occur after the date hereof, (ii) the last day of the applicable LIBOR Interest Period (if such Advance is a LIBOR Advance), and (iii) the Maturity Date. Interest shall not be payable for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received by Administrative Agent prior to noon (Chicago time). If any payment of principal or interest under the Notes shall become due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a payment of principal, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest due in connection with such payment; provided that for purposes of Section 10.1 hereof, any payments of principal described in this sentence shall be considered to be "due" on such next succeeding Business Day.
2.10 Selection of Rate Options and LIBOR Interest Periods.
(a) Borrower, from time to time, may select the Rate Option and, in the case of each LIBOR Advance, the commencement date (which shall be a Business Day) and the length of the LIBOR Interest Period applicable to each LIBOR Advance. Borrower shall give Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a "Borrowing Notice" not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) (i) at least one Business Day prior to an Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advance, (ii) at least three (3) Business Days prior to a ratable LIBOR Advance, and (iii) not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Borrowing Date for each Swingline Loan, specifying:
(i) the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such Advance,
(ii) the aggregate amount of such Advance,
(iii) the type of Advance selected, and
(iv) in the case of each LIBOR Advance, the LIBOR Interest Period applicable thereto.
The Borrower shall also deliver together with each Borrowing Notice the compliance certificate required in Section 5.2 and otherwise comply with the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 for Advances. Administrative Agent shall provide each Lender by facsimile with a copy of each Borrowing Notice and compliance certificate on the same Business Day it is received.
Not later than noon (Chicago time) on each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available its Loan or Loans, in funds immediately available in Chicago to the Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent will promptly make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the Borrower.
(b) Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable after receipt of a Borrowing Notice, determine the Adjusted LIBOR Rate applicable to the requested ratable LIBOR Advance and inform Borrower and Lenders of the same. Each determination of the Adjusted LIBOR Rate by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrower in the absence of manifest error.
(c) If Borrower shall prepay a LIBOR Advance other than on the last day of the LIBOR Interest Period applicable thereto, Borrower shall be responsible to pay all amounts due to Lenders as required by Section 4.4 hereof. The Lenders shall not be obligated to match fund their LIBOR Advances.
(d) As of the end of each LIBOR Interest Period selected for a
ratable LIBOR Advance, the interest rate on the LIBOR Advance will become the
Adjusted Corporate Base Rate, unless Borrower has once again selected a LIBOR
Interest Period in accordance with the timing and procedures set forth in
Section 2.10(g).
(e) The right of Borrower to select the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for an Advance pursuant to this Agreement is subject to the availability to Lenders of a similar option. If Administrative Agent determines that (i) deposits of Dollars in an amount approximately equal to the LIBOR Advance for which the Borrower wishes to select the Adjusted LIBOR Rate are not generally available at such time in the London interbank eurodollar market, or (ii) the rate at which the deposits described in subsection (i) herein are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the costs to Lenders of maintaining an Adjusted LIBOR Rate on an Advance or of funding the same in such market for such LIBOR Interest Period, or (iii) reasonable means do not exist for determining an Adjusted LIBOR Rate, or (iv) the Adjusted LIBOR Rate would be in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower may by law pay, then in any of such events, Administrative Agent shall so notify
Borrower and Lenders and such Advance shall bear interest at the Adjusted Corporate Base Rate.
(f) In no event may Borrower elect a LIBOR Interest Period which would extend beyond the Maturity Date. Unless Lenders agree thereto, in no event may Borrower have more than ten (10) different LIBOR Interest Periods for LIBOR Advances outstanding at any one time.
(g) Conversion and Continuation.
(i) Borrower may elect from time to time, subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.10, to convert all or any part of a ratable Advance into any other type of Advance; provided that any conversion of a ratable LIBOR Advance shall be made on, and only on, the last day of the LIBOR Interest Period applicable thereto.
(ii) Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advances shall continue as Adjusted Corporate Rate Advances unless and until such Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advances are converted into ratable LIBOR Advances pursuant to a Conversion/Continuation Notice from Borrower in accordance with Section 2.10(g)(iv). Ratable LIBOR Advances shall continue until the end of the then applicable LIBOR Interest Period therefor, at which time each such Advance shall be automatically converted into an Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advance unless the Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice in accordance with Section 2.10(g)(iv) requesting that, at the end of such LIBOR Interest Period, such Advance either continue as an Advance of such type for the same or another LIBOR Interest Period.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.10(g)(i) or (g)(ii), no Advance may be converted into a LIBOR Advance or continued as a LIBOR Advance (except with the consent of the Majority Lenders) when any Monetary Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
(iv) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a "Conversion/Continuation Notice") of each conversion of an Advance or continuation of a LIBOR Advance not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of the requested conversion, in the case of a conversion into an Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advance, or 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a ratable LIBOR Advance, specifying: (1) the requested
date (which shall be a Business Day) of such conversion or continuation; (2) the amount and type of the Advance to be converted or continued; and (3) the amounts and type(s) of Advance(s) into which such Advance is to be converted or continued and, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a ratable LIBOR Advance, the duration of the LIBOR Interest Period applicable thereto.
2.11 Method of Payment. All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without set-off, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent's address specified herein, or at any other Lending Installation of Administrative Agent specified in writing by Administrative Agent to Borrower, by noon (local time) on the date when due and shall be applied ratably by Administrative Agent among Lenders. Each payment delivered to Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that Administrative Agent received at its address specified herein or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by Administrative Agent from such Lender. Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to charge the account of Borrower maintained with First Chicago for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder.
2.12 Default. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the continuance of a Monetary Default or an Event of Default, Borrower shall not have the right to request a LIBOR Advance, request a Competitive Bid Loan, select a new LIBOR Interest Period for an existing ratable LIBOR Advance or convert any Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advance to a ratable LIBOR Advance. During the continuance of a Monetary Default or an Event of Default, at the election of the Majority Lenders, by notice to Borrower, outstanding Advances shall bear interest at the applicable Default Rates until such Monetary Default or Event of Default ceases to exist or the Obligations are paid in full.
2.13 Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Advances at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Notes shall be deemed held by each Lender for the benefit of such Lending Installation. Each Lender may, by written or telex notice to the Administrative Agent and Borrower, designate a Lending Installation through which Advances will be made by it and for whose account payments are to be made.
2.14 Non-Receipt of Funds by Administrative Agent. Unless Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to Administrative Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, an Advance, or (ii) in the case of Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made
such payment to Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on
demand by Administrative Agent, repay to Administrative Agent the amount so made
available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the
period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by
Administrative Agent until the date Administrative Agent recovers such amount at
a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal
Funds Effective Rate (as determined by Administrative Agent) for such day or
(ii) in the case of payment by Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the
relevant Advance.
2.15 Swingline Loans. In addition to the other options available to Borrower hereunder, the Swingline Commitment shall be available for Swingline Loans subject to the following terms and conditions. Swingline Loans shall be made available for same day borrowings provided that notice is given in accordance with Section 2.10 hereof. All Swingline Loans shall bear interest at the Adjusted Corporate Base Rate and shall be deemed to be Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Advances. In no event shall the Swingline Lender be required to fund a Swingline Loan if it would increase the total aggregate outstanding Loans by Swingline Lender hereunder plus its Percentage of Facility Letter of Credit Obligations to an amount in excess of its Commitment. Upon request of the Swingline Lender made to all the Lenders, each Lender irrevocably agrees to purchase its Percentage of any Swingline Loan made by the Swingline Lender regardless of whether the conditions for disbursement are satisfied at the time of such purchase, including the existence of an Event of Default hereunder provided no Lender shall be required to have total outstanding Loans (other than Competitive Bid Loans) plus its Percentage of Facility Letters of Credit to be in an amount greater than its Commitment. Such purchase shall take place on the date of the request by Swingline Lender so long as such request is made by noon (Chicago time), otherwise on the Business Day following such request. All requests for purchase shall be in writing. From and after the date it is so purchased, each such Swingline Loan shall, to the extent purchased, (i) be treated as a Loan made by the purchasing Lenders and not by the selling Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and the payment of the purchase price by a Lender shall be deemed to be the making of a Loan by such Lender and shall constitute outstanding principal under such Lender's Note, and (ii) shall no longer be considered a Swingline Loan except that all interest accruing on or attributable to such Swingline Loan for the period prior to the date of such purchase shall be paid when due by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Swingline Lender and all such amounts accruing on or attributable to such Loans for the period from and after the date of such purchase shall be paid when due by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the purchasing Lenders. If prior to purchasing its Percentage of a Swingline Loan one of the events described in Section 10.10 shall have occurred and such event prevents the consummation of the purchase contemplated by preceding provisions, each Lender will purchase an undivided participating interest in the outstanding Swingline Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of such Swingline Loan. From and after the date of each Lender's purchase of its participating interest in a Swingline Loan, if the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender's
participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment was received by the Swingline Lender and is required to be returned to the Borrower, each Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swingline Lender to it. If any Lender fails to so purchase its Percentage of any Swingline Loan, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender hereunder. No Swingline Loan shall be outstanding for more than five (5) days at a time and Swingline Loans shall not be outstanding for more than a total of ten (10) days during any month.
2.16 Competitive Bid Loans.
(a) Competitive Bid Option. In addition to ratable Advances pursuant to Section 2.5, but subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, without limitation the limitation set forth in Section 2.1(a) as to the maximum Allocated Facility Amount), the Borrower may, as set forth in this Section 2.16, but only during a Rating Period, request the Lenders, prior to the Maturity Date, to make offers to make Competitive Bid Loans to the Borrower. Each Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, make such offers and the Borrower may, but shall have no obligation to, accept any such offers in the manner set forth in this Section 2.16. Competitive Bid Loans shall be evidenced by the Competitive Bid Notes.
(b) Competitive Bid Quote Request. When the Borrower wishes to request offers to make Competitive Bid Loans under this Section 2.16, it shall transmit to the Administrative Agent by telecopy a Competitive Bid Quote Request substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 hereto so as to be received no later than (i) 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least five Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date proposed therein, in the case of a request for a Competitive LIBOR Margin or (ii) 9:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least one Business Day prior to the Borrowing Date proposed therein, in the case of a request for an Absolute Rate specifying:
(i) the proposed Borrowing Date for the proposed Competitive Bid Loan,
(ii) the requested aggregate principal amount of such Competitive Bid Loan,
(iii) whether the Competitive Bid Quotes requested are to set forth a Competitive LIBOR Margin or an Absolute Rate, or both, and
(iv) the LIBOR Interest Period, if a Competitive LIBOR Margin is requested, or the Absolute Interest Period, if an Absolute Rate is requested.
The Borrower may request offers to make Competitive Bid Loans for more than one Interest Period (but not more than five Interest Periods) in a single Competitive Bid Quote Request. No Competitive Bid Quote Request shall be given within five Business Days (or such other
number of days as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree) of any other Competitive Bid Quote Request. A Competitive Bid Quote Request that does not conform substantially to the form of Exhibit C-1 hereto shall be rejected, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of such rejection by telecopy.
(c) Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes. Promptly and in any event before the close of business on the same Business Day of receipt of a Competitive Bid Quote Request that is not rejected pursuant to Section 2.16(b), the Administrative Agent shall send to each of the Lenders by telecopy an Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 hereto, which shall constitute an invitation by the Borrower to each Lender to submit Competitive Bid Quotes offering to make the Competitive Bid Loans to which such Competitive Bid Quote Request relates in accordance with this Section 2.16.
(d) Submission and Contents of Competitive Bid Quotes.
(i) Each Lender may, in its sole discretion, submit a Competitive Bid Quote containing an offer or offers to make Competitive Bid Loans in response to any Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes. Each Competitive Bid Quote must comply with the requirements of this Section 2.16(d) and must be submitted to the Administrative Agent by telex or telecopy at its offices not later than (a) 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) at least four Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of a request for a Competitive LIBOR Margin or (b) 9:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of a request for an Absolute Rate (or, in either case upon reasonable prior notice to the Lenders, such other time and rate as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree); provided that Competitive Bid Quotes submitted by First Chicago may only be submitted if the Administrative Agent or First Chicago notifies the Borrower of the terms of the Offer or Offers contained therein no later than 30 minutes prior to the latest time at which the relevant Competitive Bid Quotes must be submitted by the other Lenders. Subject to the Borrower's compliance with all other conditions to disbursement herein, any Competitive Bid Quote so made shall be irrevocable except with the written consent of the Administrative Agent given on the instructions of the Borrower.
(ii) Each Competitive Bid Quote shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit C-3 hereto and shall in any case specify:
(a) the proposed Borrowing Date, which shall be the same as that set forth in the applicable Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes,
(b) the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Loan for which each such offer is being made, which principal amount (1) may be greater than, less than or equal to the Commitment of the quoting Lender, (2) must be at least $10,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000, and (3) may not exceed the principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans for which offers are requested,
(c) as applicable, the Competitive LIBOR Margin and Absolute Rate offered for each such Competitive Bid Loan,
(d) the minimum amount, if any, of the Competitive Bid Loan which may be accepted by the Borrower, and
(e) the identity of the quoting Lender, provided that such Competitive Bid Loan may be funded by such Lender's Designated Lender as provided in Section 2.16(j), regardless of whether that is specified in the Competitive Bid Quote.
(iii) The Administrative Agent shall reject any Competitive Bid Quote that:
(a) is not substantially in the form of Exhibit C-3 hereto or does not specify all of the information required by Section 2.16(d)(ii),
(b) contains qualifying, conditional or similar language, other than any such language contained in Exhibit C-3 hereto,
(c) proposes terms other than or in addition to those set forth in the applicable Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes, or
(d) arrives after the time set forth in Section 2.16(d)(i).
If any Competitive Bid Quote shall be rejected pursuant to this Section 2.16(d)(iii), then the Administrative Agent shall notify the relevant Lender of such rejection as soon as practical.
(e) Notice to Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of the terms (i) of any Competitive Bid Quote submitted by a Lender that is in accordance with Section 2.16(d) and (ii) of any Competitive Bid Quote that amends, modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a previous Competitive Bid Quote submitted by such Lender with respect to the same Competitive Bid Quote Request. Any such subsequent Competitive
Bid Quote shall be disregarded by the Administrative Agent unless such subsequent Competitive Bid Quote specifically states that it is submitted solely to correct a manifest error in such former Competitive Bid Quote. The Administrative Agent's notice to the Borrower shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans for which offers have been received for each Interest Period specified in the related Competitive Bid Quote Request and the respective principal amounts and Competitive LIBOR Margins or Absolute Rate, as the case may be, so offered.
(f) Acceptance and Notice by Borrower. Not later than (i) 6:00
p.m. (Chicago time) at least four Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing
Date in the case of a request for a Competitive LIBOR Margin or (ii) 10:00 a.m.
(Chicago time) on the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of a request for an
Absolute Rate (or, in either case upon reasonable prior notice to the Lenders,
such other time and date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may
agree), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of its acceptance or
rejection of the offers so notified to it pursuant to Section 2.16(e); provided,
however, that the failure by the Borrower to give such notice to the
Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be a rejection of all such offers. In
the case of acceptance, such notice (a "Competitive Bid Borrowing Notice") shall
specify the aggregate principal amount of offers for each Interest Period that
are accepted. The Borrower may accept any Competitive Bid Quote in whole or in
part (subject to the terms of Section 2.16(d)(iii)); provided that:
(i) the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Bid Loans to be disbursed on a given Borrowing Date may not exceed the applicable amount set forth in the related Competitive Bid Quote Request,
(ii) acceptance of offers may only be made on the basis of ascending Competitive LIBOR Margins or Absolute Rates, as the case may be, and
(iii) the Borrower may not accept any offer that is described in Section 2.16(d)(iii) or that otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of this Agreement.
(g) Allocation by Administrative Agent. If offers are made by two or more Lenders with the same Competitive LIBOR Margins or Absolute Rates, as the case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which offers are accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such Lenders as nearly as possible (in such multiples, not greater than $1,000,000, as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate) in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of such offers provided, however, that no Lender shall be allocated any Competitive Bid Loan which is less than the minimum amount which such Lender has indicated that it is willing to accept. Allocations by the Administrative Agent of the amounts of Competitive Bid Loans
shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall promptly, but in any event on the same Business Day, notify each Lender of its receipt of a Competitive Bid Borrowing Notice and the principal amounts of the Competitive Bid Loans allocated to each participating Lender.
(h) Administration Fee. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent an administration fee of $2,500 per each Competitive Bid Quote Request transmitted by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.16(b).

(j) Designated Lenders. A Lender may designate its Designated

Bid Loan and be entitled to receive payment thereof when due. No Lender shall be
relieved of its obligation to fund a Competitive Bid Loan, and no Designated
Lender shall assume such obligation, prior to the time such Competitive Bid Loan
is funded.

Any partial termination of the Aggregate Commitment shall be applied pro rata to each Lender's Commitment.
2.18 Application of Moneys Received. All moneys collected or received by the Administrative Agent on account of the Facility directly or indirectly, shall be applied in the following order of priority:

(vi) any other sums due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents; and

(5) the purpose for which such Facility Letter of Credit is to be issued;
(6) the Person for whose benefit the requested Facility Letter of Credit is to be issued; and

Such notice, to be effective, must be received by such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the last Business Day on which notice can be given under this Section 3.4(a).
(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article III and provided that the applicable conditions set forth in Article V hereof have been satisfied, the Issuing Bank shall, on the Issuance Date, issue a Facility Letter of Credit on behalf of the Borrower in accordance with the Letter of Credit Request and the Issuing Bank's usual and customary business practices unless the Issuing Bank has actually received (i) written notice from the Borrower specifically revoking the Letter of Credit Request with respect to such Facility Letter of Credit, (ii) written notice from a Lender, which complies with the provisions of Section 3.6(a), or (iii) written or telephonic notice from the Administrative Agent stating that the issuance of such Facility Letter of Credit would violate Section 3.2.
(c) The Issuing Bank shall give the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify Lenders) and the Borrower written or telex notice, or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of the issuance of a Facility Letter of Credit (the "Issuance Notice"), which shall indicate the Issuing Bank's reasonable determination as to whether such Facility Letter of Credit is a Financial Letter of Credit or a Performance Letter of Credit, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) The Issuing Bank shall not extend or amend any Facility Letter of Credit unless the requirements of this Section 3.4 are met as though a new Facility Letter of Credit was being requested and issued.
3.5 Reimbursement Obligations; Duties of Issuing Bank.
(a) The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify Lenders) of any draw under a Facility Letter of Credit. Any such draw shall constitute an Advance of the Facility in the amount of the Reimbursement Obligation with respect to such Facility Letter of Credit and shall bear interest from the date of the relevant drawing(s) under the pertinent Facility Letter of Credit at a rate selected by Borrower in accordance with Section 2.10 hereof; provided that if a Monetary Default or an Event of Default exists at the time of any such drawing(s), then the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank for drawings under a Facility Letter of Credit issued by the
Issuing Bank no later than the next succeeding Business Day after the payment by the Issuing Bank and until repaid such Reimbursement Obligation shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
(b) Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Facility Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of willful misconduct or gross negligence, shall not put the Issuing Bank under any resulting liability to any Lender or, provided that such Issuing Bank has complied with the procedures specified in Section 3.4 and such Lender has not given a notice contemplated by Section 3.6(a) that continues in full force and effect, relieve that Lender of its obligations hereunder to the Issuing Bank. In determining whether to pay under any Facility Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation relative to the Lenders other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered in compliance, and that they appear to comply on their face, with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.
3.6 Participation.
(a) Immediately upon issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Facility Letter of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.4, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Bank, without recourse, representation or warranty, an undivided interest and participation equal to such Lender's Percentage in such Facility Letter of Credit (including, without limitation, all obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto) and all related rights hereunder and under the Guaranty and other Loan Documents; provided that a Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to be a Facility Letter of Credit for purposes of this Section 3.6 if the Issuing Bank shall have received written notice from any Lender on or before the Business Day prior to the date of its issuance of such Letter of Credit that one or more of the conditions contained in Section 5.2 is not then satisfied, and in the event the Issuing Bank receives such a notice it shall have no further obligation to issue any Facility Letter of Credit until such notice is withdrawn by that Lender or the Issuing Bank receives a notice from the Administrative Agent that such condition has been effectively waived in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Each Lender's obligation to make further Loans to Borrower (other than any payments such Lender is required to make under subparagraph (b) below) or to purchase an interest from the Issuing Bank in any subsequent letters of credit issued by the Issuing Bank on behalf of Borrower shall be reduced by such Lender's Percentage of the undrawn portion of each Facility Letter of Credit outstanding.
(b) In the event that the Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Facility Letter of Credit and the Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.7 hereof, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Lender of such failure, and each Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank the amount of such Lender's Percentage of the unreimbursed amount of such payment, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay such amount to the Issuing Bank. Lender's
payments of its Percentage of such Reimbursement Obligation as aforesaid shall be deemed to be a Loan by such Lender and shall constitute outstanding principal under such Lender's Note. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank its Percentage of the unreimbursed amount of any such payment shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Percentage of the unreimbursed amount of any payment on the date such payment is to be made, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent its Percentage of the unreimbursed amount of any payment on the date such payment is to be made. Any Lender which fails to make any payment required pursuant to this Section 3.6(b) shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender hereunder.
(c) Whenever the Issuing Bank receives a payment on account of a Reimbursement Obligation, including any interest thereon, the Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Lender which has funded its participating interest therein, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Lender's Percentage thereof.
(d) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Issuing Bank shall furnish to such Administrative Agent or Lender copies of any Facility Letter of Credit to which the Issuing Bank is party and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent or Lender.
(e) The obligations of a Lender to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank with respect to a Facility Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, set-off, qualification or exception whatsoever other than a failure of any such Issuing Bank to comply with the terms of this Agreement relating to the issuance of such Facility Letter of Credit, and such payments shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances.
3.7 Payment of Reimbursement Obligations.
(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank the amount of all Advances for Reimbursement Obligations, interest and other amounts payable to the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Facility Letter of Credit when due, irrespective of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against any Issuing Bank or any other Person, under all circumstances, including without limitation any of the following circumstances:
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;
(ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Facility Letter of Credit or any transferee of any Facility Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Facility Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transactions between the Borrower and the beneficiary named in any Facility Letter of Credit);
(iii) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the Facility Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect of any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;
(iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or
(v) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default.
(b) In the event any payment by the Borrower received by the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent with respect to a Facility Letter of Credit and distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders on account of their participations is thereafter set aside, avoided or recovered from the Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank in connection with any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or bankruptcy proceeding, each Lender which received such distribution shall, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, contribute such Lender's Percentage of the amount set aside, avoided or recovered together with interest at the rate required to be paid by the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent upon the amount required to be repaid by the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent.
3.8 Compensation for Facility Letters of Credit.
(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, based upon the Lenders' respective Percentages, a per annum fee (the "Facility Letter of Credit Fee") with respect to each Facility Letter of Credit that is equal to (i) the LIBOR Applicable Margin in effect from time to time in the case of Financial Letters of Credit, and (ii) the LIBOR Applicable Margin from time to time minus 0.25% in the case of Performance Letters of Credit. The Facility Letter of Credit Fee relating to any Facility Letter of Credit shall be due and payable in arrears in equal installments on the first Business Day of each month following the issuance of any Facility Letter of Credit and, to the extent any such fees are then due and unpaid, on the Maturity Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit such Facility Letter of Credit Fees, when paid, to the other Lenders in accordance with
their Percentages thereof. The Borrower shall not have any liability to any Lender for the failure of the Administrative Agent to promptly deliver funds to any such Lender and shall be deemed to have made all such payments on the date the respective payment is made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, provided such payment is received by the time specified in Section 2.11 hereof.
(b) The Issuing Bank also shall have the right to receive solely for its own account an issuance fee of 0.15% of the face amount of each Facility Letter of Credit, payable by the Borrower on the Issuance Date for each such Facility Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall also be entitled to receive its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and the Issuing Bank's standard charges of issuing, amending and servicing Facility Letters of Credit and processing draws thereunder.
3.9 Letter of Credit Collateral Account. The Borrower hereby agrees that it will, until the Maturity Date, maintain a special collateral account (the "Letter of Credit Collateral Account") at the Administrative Agent's office at the address specified pursuant to Article XV, in the name of the Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, and in which the Borrower shall have no interest other than as set forth in Section 11.1. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in and to the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and any funds that may hereafter be on deposit in such account, including income earned thereon. The Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Borrower has no obligation to fund the Letter of Credit Collateral Account unless and until so required under Section 11.1 hereof.
ARTICLE IV
CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES
4.1 Yield Protection. If the adoption of or change in any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law), or any interpretation thereof, or the compliance of any Lender therewith,
(i) subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation to any tax, duty, charge or withholding on or from payments due from Borrower (excluding federal and state taxation of the overall net income of any Lender or applicable Lending Installation), or changes the basis of such taxation of payments to any Lender in respect of its Advances, its interest in the Facility Letters of Credit or other amounts due it hereunder, or
(ii) imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against
assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to LIBOR Advances), or
(iii) imposes any other condition, and the result is to increase the cost of any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation of making, funding or maintaining loans or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation in connection with loans, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of loans held, Letters of Credit issued or participated in or interest received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender,
then, within fifteen (15) days of demand by such Lender, Borrower shall pay such Lender that portion of such increased expense incurred or reduction in an amount received which such Lender determines is attributable to making, funding and maintaining its Advances and its Commitment.
4.2 Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, any Lending Installation of such Lender or any corporate entity controlling such Lender is increased as a result of a Change (as defined below), then, within fifteen (15) days of demand by such Lender, Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which such Lender determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Advances, its interest in the Facility Letters of Credit, or its obligation to make Advances hereunder or participate in or issue Facility Letters of Credit hereunder (after taking into account such Lender's policies as to capital adequacy). "Change" means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines (as defined below) or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of this Agreement which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender. "Risk-Based Capital Guidelines" means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States implementing the July 1988 report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices Entitled "International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards", including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement. Without in any way affecting the Borrower's obligation to pay compensation actually claimed by a Lender under this Section 4.2, the Borrower shall have the right to replace any Lender which has demanded such compensation provided that Borrower notifies such Lender that it has elected to replace such Lender and notifies such Lender and the Administrative Agent of the identity of the proposed
replacement Lender not more than six (6) months after the date of such Lender's most recent demand for compensation under this Section 4.2. The Lender being replaced shall assign its Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and its rights and obligations under this Facility to the replacement Lender in accordance with the requirements of Section 13.3 hereof and the replacement Lender shall assume such Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and the related obligations under this Facility prior to the Maturity Date to be extended, all pursuant to an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto. The purchase by the replacement Lender shall be at par (plus all accrued and unpaid interest and any other sums owed to such Lender being replaced hereunder) which shall be paid to the Lender being replaced upon the execution and delivery of the assignment.
4.3 Availability of LIBOR Advances. If any Lender determines that maintenance of any of its LIBOR Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or directive of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent shall suspend by written notice to Borrower the availability of LIBOR Advances and require any LIBOR Advances to be repaid; or if the Majority Lenders determine that (i) deposits of a type or maturity appropriate to match fund LIBOR Advances are not available, the Administrative Agent shall suspend by written notice to Borrower the availability of LIBOR Advances with respect to any LIBOR Advances made after the date of any such determination, or (ii) an interest rate applicable to a LIBOR Advance does not accurately reflect the cost of making a LIBOR Advance, and, if for any reason whatsoever the provisions of Section 4.1 are inapplicable, the Administrative Agent shall suspend by written notice to Borrower the availability of LIBOR Advances with respect to any LIBOR Advances made after the date of any such determination.
4.4 Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a ratable LIBOR Advance or a Competitive Bid Loan occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a ratable LIBOR Advance or a Competitive Bid Loan is not made on the date specified by Borrower for any reason other than default by one or more of the Lenders, Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by such Lender resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the ratable LIBOR Advance or Competitive Bid Loan, as the case may be.
4.5 Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its LIBOR Advances to reduce any liability of Borrower to such Lender under Sections 4.1 and 4.2 or to avoid the unavailability of a LIBOR Advance, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender as to the amount due, if any, under Sections 4.1, 4.2 or 4.4 hereof. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a LIBOR
Advance shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its LIBOR Advance through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Adjusted LIBOR Rate applicable to such Advance, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement shall be payable on demand after receipt by Borrower of the written statement. The obligations of Borrower under Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.4 hereof shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

be promptly paid over to the Borrower.

12.9 Rights as a Lender. With respect to the Commitment, Advances made by it and the Note issued to it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

First Chicago (or any successor Administrative Agent) may be removed as Administrative Agent by written notice received by Administrative Agent from all of the other Lenders (i) at any time with cause (i.e., a breach by First Chicago (or any successor Administrative Agent) of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder), or (ii) without cause if First Chicago (or any successor Administrative Agent) assigns a portion of First Chicago's (or such successor Administrative Agent's) then applicable Commitment in an amount such that following such assignment First Chicago's (or such successor Administrative Agent's) then remaining Commitment is less than the then applicable Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.

If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the
Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. Such successor Administrative Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (including the right to receive any fees for performing such duties which accrue thereafter), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XII shall continue in effect for its benefit and that of the other Lenders in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
12.13 Notice of Defaults. If a Lender becomes aware of a Default or Event of Default, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact. Upon receipt of such notice that a Default or Event of Default has occurred, the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Lenders of such fact.
12.14 Requests for Approval. If the Administrative Agent requests in writing the consent or approval of a Lender, such Lender shall respond and either approve or disapprove definitively in writing to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days (or sooner if such notice specifies a shorter period, but in no event less than five Business Days for responses based on Administrative Agent's good faith determination that circumstances exist warranting its request for an earlier response) after such written request from the Administrative Agent. If the Lender does not so respond, that Lender shall be deemed to have approved the request. Upon request, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders which Lenders, if any, failed to respond to a request for approval.
12.15 Copies of Documents. Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to each of the Lenders copies of all notices of default and other formal notices sent or received and according to Section 15.1 of this Agreement. Administrative Agent shall deliver to Lenders within 15 Business Days following receipt, copies of all financial statements, certificates and notices received regarding the General Partner's ratings except to the extent such items are required to be furnished directly to the Lenders by Borrower hereunder. Within fifteen Business Days after a request by a Lender to the Administrative Agent for other documents furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall provide copies of such documents to such Lender except where this Agreement obligates Administrative Agent to provide copies in a shorter period of time.
12.16 Defaulting Lenders. At such time as a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender's right to vote on matters which are subject to the consent or approval of the Majority or Supermajority Lenders, such Defaulting Lender or all Lenders shall be immediately suspended until such time as the Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender. If a
Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its Percentage of any Advance and until
such time as such Defaulting Lender subsequently funds its Percentage of such
Advance, all Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be
subordinated in right of payment, as provided in the following sentence, to the
prior payment in full of all principal of, interest on and fees relating to the
Loans funded by the other Lenders in connection with any such Advance in which
the Defaulting Lender has not funded its Percentage (such principal, interest
and fees being referred to as "Senior Loans" for the purposes of this section).
All amounts paid by the Borrower and otherwise due to be applied to the
Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms hereof shall
be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the other Lenders in accordance
with their respective Percentages (recalculated for the purposes hereof to
exclude the Defaulting Lender) until all Senior Loans have been paid in full. At
that point, the "Defaulting Lender" shall no longer be deemed a Defaulting
Lender. After the Senior Loans have been paid in full equitable adjustments will
be made in connection with future payments by the Borrower to the extent a
portion of the Senior Loans had been repaid with amounts that otherwise would
have been distributed to a Defaulting Lender but for the operation of this
Section 12.16. This provision governs only the relationship among the
Administrative Agent, each Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders; nothing
hereunder shall limit the obligation of the Borrower to repay all Loans in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section
12.16 shall apply and be effective regardless of whether a Default occurs and is
continuing, and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, (ii) any instruction of the Borrower as to its desired application of
payments or (iii) the suspension of such Defaulting Lender's right to vote on
matters as provided above.
ARTICLE XIII
BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS
13.1 Successors and Assigns.
The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents without the consent of all the Lenders and any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3. The Administrative Agent may treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such payee complies with Section 13.3 in the case of an assignment thereof or, in the case of any other transfer, a written notice of the transfer is filed with the Administrative Agent. Any assignee or transferee of a Note agrees by acceptance thereof to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of any Note, shall be
conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.
13.2 Participations.
13.2.1 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities ("Participants") participating interests in any Advance owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender's obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.
13.2.2 Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to vote its Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment, without the consent of any Participant, for the approval or disapproval of any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, provided that such Lender may grant such Participant the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver which forgives principal, interest or fees or reduces the interest rate or fees payable hereunder, postpones any date fixed for any regularly-scheduled payment of principal of or interest on the Obligations, or extends the Maturity Date.
13.3 Assignments.
13.3.1 Permitted Assignments. Subject to the provisions of
Section 12.10 above with respect to First Chicago and UBS, any Lender
may, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and
Borrower (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), in accordance with applicable law, at any time assign to one
or more banks or other entities (collectively, "Purchasers") all or any
part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, except
that no consent of Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and that no consent of Administrative
Agent or Borrower shall ever be required for (i) any assignment to a
Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under
direct or indirect common control with the assigning Lender or (ii) the
pledge or assignment by a Lender of such Lender's Note and other rights
under the Loan Documents to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with
applicable law. Such assignments and
assumptions shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto. The Borrower shall execute any and all documents which are customarily required by such Lender (including, without limitation, a replacement promissory note or notes in the forms provided hereunder) in connection with any such assignment, but Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any fees and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any assignment pursuant to this Section. Any Lender selling all or any part of its rights and obligation hereunder in a transaction requiring the consent of the Administrative Agent shall pay to the Administrative Agent a fee of $3,500.00 per assignee to reimburse Administrative Agent for its involvement in such assignment.
13.3.2 Effect; Effective Date of Assignment. Upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of a notice of assignment executed by the assigning Lender and the Purchaser, such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such notice of assignment. The notice of assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Commitment and the Loan under the applicable assignment agreement are "plan assets" as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be "plan assets" under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no further consent or action by Borrower, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall be required to release the transferor Lender with respect to the percentage of the Commitment and Advances assigned to such Purchaser. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 13.3.2, the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.
13.4 Dissemination of Information. Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a "Transferee") and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender's possession concerning the creditworthiness of Borrower and General Partner. Each Transferee shall agree in writing to keep confidential any such information which is not publicly available.
13.5 Tax Treatment. If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any Transferee which is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any State thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with all applicable provisions of the Code with respect to withholding and other tax matters.
ARTICLE XIV

The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
14.7 Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.
14.8 Nonliability of the Lenders. The relationship between the Borrower and the Lenders shall be solely that of borrower and lender.

14.9 Choice of Law. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN THOSE CONTAINING A CONTRARY EXPRESS CHOICE OF LAW PROVISION) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (AND NOT THE LAW OF CONFLICTS) OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS APPLICABLE TO NATIONAL BANKS.

14.12 Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents. Any assignee or transferee of the Notes agrees by acceptance thereof to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of the Notes, shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such Notes or of any note or notes issued in exchange therefor.
14.13 Entire Agreement; Modification of Agreement. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement among the Borrower, General Partner, Administrative Agent, and Lenders and supersede all prior conversations, agreements, understandings, commitments and term sheets among any or all of such parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

14.15 Set-Off.
(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred, each Lender shall have the right, at any time and from time to time without notice to the Borrower, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set-off and to appropriate or apply any and all deposits of money or property or any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of all outstanding Obligations and all Obligations which from time to time may become due hereunder and all other obligations and liabilities of the Borrower under this Agreement, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and whether or not said obligations and liabilities shall have matured.
(b) Each Lender agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest or fees due with respect to any Note held by it which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal, interest or fees due with respect to any Note held by such other Lender, the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Notes held by the other Lenders and such other adjustments shall be made as may be required so that all such payments of principal, interest or Fees with respect to the Notes held by the Lenders shall be shared by the Lenders pro rata according to their respective Commitments.

FORM OF NOTE
$_________________ _______________, 1997
On or before the Maturity Date, as defined in that certain Unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of December 15, 1997 (the "Agreement") between FIRST INDUSTRIAL, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Borrower"), First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, Union Bank of Switzerland, New York Branch, individually and as Documentation Agent, The First National Bank of Chicago, a national bank organized under the laws of the United States of America, individually and as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (as such terms are defined in the Agreement), and the other Lenders listed on the signature pages of the Agreement, Borrower promises to pay to the order of _________________________ (the "Lender"), or its successors and assigns, the principal sum of AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($__________) or the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans (other than Competitive Bid Loans) made by the Lender to the Borrower pursuant to Section2.1 of the Agreement, in immediately available funds at the office of the Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois, together with interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof at the rates and on the dates set forth in the Agreement. The Borrower shall pay this Promissory Note ("Note") in full on or before the Maturity Date in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.
The Lender shall, and is hereby authorized to, record on the schedule attached hereto, or to otherwise record in accordance with its usual practice, the date and amount of each Advance and the date and amount of each principal payment hereunder.
This Note is issued pursuant to, and is entitled to the security under and benefits of, the Agreement and the other Loan Documents, to which Agreement and Loan Documents, as they may be amended from time to time, reference is hereby made for, inter alia, a statement of the terms and conditions under which this Note may be prepaid or its maturity date accelerated.

FORM OF GUARANTY
This Guaranty is made as of December 15, 1997, by First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("Guarantor"), to and for the benefit of Union Bank of Switzerland, New York Branch, The First National Bank of Chicago, a national banking association, individually ("First Chicago"), and as administrative agent for itself and the lenders listed on the signature pages of the Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined below) and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, "Lender").
RECITALS
A. First Industrial, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Borrower"), and Guarantor have requested that Lender make an unsecured revolving credit facility available to Borrower in the aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000,000 ("Facility").
B. Lender has agreed to make available the Facility to Borrower pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in an Unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement bearing even date herewith between Borrower, the Lenders and Guarantor ("Revolving Credit Agreement"). All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Revolving Credit Agreement.
C. Borrower has executed and delivered to Lender one or more Promissory Notes each of even date in the aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000 as evidence of its indebtedness to Lender with respect to the Facility (the promissory notes described above, together with any amendments or allonges thereto, or restatements, replacements or renewals thereof, and/or new promissory notes to new Lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement, are collectively referred to herein as the "Note"). Borrower has also executed and delivered to each Lender a note ("Competitive Loan Note") which evidences any Competitive Bid Loans which may be made by such Lender under the Revolving Credit Agreement.
D. Guarantor is the sole general partner of Borrower and, therefore, Guarantor will derive financial benefit from the Facility evidenced by the Note, Revolving Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The execution and delivery of this Guaranty by Guarantor is a condition precedent to the performance by Lender of its obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement.
AGREEMENTS
NOW, THEREFORE, Guarantor, in consideration of the matters described in the foregoing Recitals, which Recitals are incorporated herein and made a part hereof, and for other good and valuable consideration, hereby agrees as follows:
1. Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably guarantees to Lender:
(a) the full and prompt payment of the principal of and interest on the Note and/or any Competitive Bid Loan Note when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, and the prompt payment of all sums which may now be or may hereafter become due and owing under the Note, any Competitive Bid Loan Note, the Revolving Credit Agreement, and the other Loan Documents;
(b) the payment of all Enforcement Costs (as hereinafter defined in Paragraph 7 hereof); and
(c) the full, complete, and punctual observance, performance, and satisfaction of all of the obligations, duties, covenants, and agreements of Borrower under the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents.
All amounts due, debts, liabilities, and payment obligations described in subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this Paragraph 1 are referred to herein as the "Facility Indebtedness." All obligations described in subparagraph (c) of this Paragraph 1 are referred to herein as the "Obligations."
2. In the event of any default by Borrower in making payment of the Facility Indebtedness, or in performance of the Obligations, as aforesaid, in each case beyond the expiration of any applicable grace period, Guarantor agrees, on demand by Lender or the holder of the Note, to pay all the Facility Indebtedness and to perform all the Obligations as are or then or thereafter become due and owing or are to be performed under the terms of the Note, any Competitive Bid Loan Note, the Revolving Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to pay any reasonable expenses incurred by Lender in protecting, preserving, or defending its interest in the Property or in connection with the Facility or under any of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. Lender shall have the right, at its option, either before, during or after pursuing any other right or remedy against Borrower or Guarantor, to perform any and all of the Obligations by or through any agent, contractor or subcontractor, or any of their agents, of its selection, all as Lender in its sole discretion deems proper, and Guarantor shall indemnify and hold Lender free and harmless from and against any and all loss, damage, cost, expense, injury, or liability Lender may suffer or incur in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Guaranty or the performance of the Obligations, except to the extent the same arises as a result of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of Lender.
All of the remedies set forth herein and/or provided by any of the Loan Documents or law or equity shall be equally available to Lender, and the choice by Lender of one such alternative over another shall not be subject to question or challenge by Guarantor or any other person, nor shall any such choice be asserted as a defense, set-off, or failure to mitigate damages in any action, proceeding, or counteraction by Lender to recover or seeking any other remedy under this Guaranty, nor shall such choice preclude Lender from subsequently electing to exercise a different remedy. The parties have agreed to the alternative remedies hereinabove specified in part because they recognize that the choice of remedies in the event of a failure hereunder will necessarily be and should properly be a matter of business judgment, which the passage of time and events may or may not prove to have been the best choice to maximize recovery by Lender at the lowest cost to Borrower and/or Guarantor. It is the intention of the parties that such choice by Lender be given conclusive effect regardless of such subsequent developments.
3. Guarantor does hereby waive (i) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty
by Lender and any and all notices and demands of every kind which may be
required to be given by any statute, rule or law, (ii) any defense, right of
set-off or other claim which Guarantor may have against the Borrower or which
Guarantor or Borrower may have against Lender or the holder of the Note or the
holder of any Competitive Bid Loan Note (other than defenses relating to payment
of the Facility Indebtedness or the correctness of any allegation by Lender that
Borrower was in default in the performance of the Obligations),
(iii) presentment for payment, demand for payment (other than as provided for in
Paragraph 2 above), notice of nonpayment (other than as provided for in
Paragraph 2 above) or dishonor, protest and notice of protest, diligence in
collection and any and all formalities which otherwise might be legally required
to charge Guarantor with liability, (iv) any failure by Lender to inform
Guarantor of any facts Lender may now or hereafter know about Borrower, the
Facility, or the transactions contemplated by the Revolving Credit Agreement, it
being understood and agreed that Lender has no duty so to inform and that the
Guarantor is fully responsible for being and remaining informed by the Borrower
of all circumstances bearing on the existence or creation, or the risk of
nonpayment of the Facility Indebtedness or the risk of nonperformance of the
Obligations, and (v) any and all right to cause a marshalling of assets of the
Borrower or any other action by any court or governmental body with respect
thereto, or to cause Lender to proceed against any other security given to
Lender in connection with the Facility Indebtedness or the Obligations. Credit
may be granted or continued from time to time by Lender to Borrower without
notice to or authorization from Guarantor, regardless of the financial or other
condition of the Borrower at the time of any such grant or continuation. Lender
shall have no obligation to disclose or discuss with Guarantor its assessment of
the financial condition of Borrower. Guarantor acknowledges that no
representations of any kind whatsoever have been made by Lender to Guarantor. No
modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Guaranty shall be
binding upon Lender except as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and
delivered on behalf of Lender. Guarantor further agrees that any exculpatory
language contained in the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Note and any
Competitive Bid Loan Note
shall in no event apply to this Guaranty, and will not prevent Lender from proceeding against Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty.
4. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor's liability as guarantor shall in nowise be impaired by any renewals or extensions which may be made from time to time, with or without the knowledge or consent of Guarantor of the time for payment of interest or principal under the Note or any Competitive Bid Loan Note or by any forbearance or delay in collecting interest or principal under the Note or any Competitive Bid Loan Note, or by any waiver by Lender under the Revolving Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents, or by Lender's failure or election not to pursue any other remedies it may have against Borrower, or by any change or modification in the Note, Revolving Credit Agreement, any Competitive Bid Loan Note or any other Loan Documents, or by the acceptance by Lender of any additional security or any increase, substitution or change therein, or by the release by Lender of any security or any withdrawal thereof or decrease therein, or by the application of payments received from any source to the payment of any obligation other than the Facility Indebtedness, even though Lender might lawfully have elected to apply such payments to any part or all of the Facility Indebtedness, it being the intent hereof that Guarantor shall remain liable as principal for payment of the Facility Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations until all indebtedness has been paid in full and the other terms, covenants and conditions of the Revolving Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents and this Guaranty have been performed, notwithstanding any act or thing which might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of a surety. Guarantor further understands and agrees that Lender may at any time enter into agreements with Borrower to amend and modify the Note, Revolving Credit Agreement, any Competitive Bid Loan Note or other Loan Documents, or any thereof, and may waive or release any provision or provisions of the Note, the Revolving Credit Agreement, any Competitive Bid Loan Note and other Loan Documents or any thereof, and, with reference to such instruments, may make and enter into any such agreement or agreements as Lender and Borrower may deem proper and desirable, without in any manner impairing this Guaranty or any of Lender's rights hereunder or any of the Guarantor's obligations hereunder.
5. This is an absolute, unconditional, complete, present and continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection. Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty may be enforced by Lender without the necessity at any time of resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral given in connection herewith or with the Note, any Competitive Bid Loan Note, the Revolving Credit Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents, or resorting to any other guaranties, and Guarantor hereby waives the right to require Lender to join Borrower in any action brought hereunder or to commence any action against or obtain any judgment against Borrower or to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right. Guarantor further agrees that nothing contained herein or otherwise shall prevent Lender from pursuing concurrently or successively all rights and remedies available to it at law and/or in equity or under the Note, Revolving Credit Agreement, any Competitive Bid Loan Note or any other Loan Documents, and the exercise of any of its rights or the completion of any of its
remedies shall not constitute a discharge of any of Guarantor's obligations hereunder, it being the purpose and intent of the Guarantor that the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall be primary, absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever. Neither Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by any impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of the liability of Borrower under the Note, Revolving Credit Agreement, any Competitive Bid Loan Note or other Loan Documents or by reason of Borrower's bankruptcy or by reason of any creditor or bankruptcy proceeding instituted by or against Borrower. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective and be deemed to have continued in existence or be reinstated (as the case may be) if at any time payment of all or any part of any sum payable pursuant to the Note, Revolving Credit Agreement, any Competitive Bid Loan Note or any other Loan Document is rescinded or otherwise required to be returned by the payee upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of the payor, all as though such payment to Lender had not been made, regardless of whether Lender contested the order requiring the return of such payment. The obligations of Guarantor pursuant to the preceding sentence shall survive any termination, cancellation, or release of this Guaranty.
6. This Guaranty shall be assignable by Lender to any assignee of all or a portion of Lender's rights under the Loan Documents.
7. If: (i) this Guaranty, the Note, any Competitive Bid Loan Note, or any other Loan Document is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or is collected through any legal proceeding; (ii) an attorney is retained to represent Lender in any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, or other proceedings affecting creditors' rights and involving a claim under this Guaranty, the Note, any Competitive Bid Loan Note, the Revolving Credit Agreement, or any Loan Document; (iii) an attorney is retained to provide advice or other representation with respect to the Loan Documents in connection with an enforcement action or potential enforcement action; or (iv) an attorney is retained to represent Lender in any other legal proceedings whatsoever in connection with this Guaranty, the Note, any Competitive Bid Loan Note, the Revolving Credit Agreement, any of the Loan Documents, or any property subject thereto (other than any action or proceeding brought by any Lender or participant against the Administrative Agent (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) alleging a breach by the Administrative Agent of its duties under the Loan Documents), then Guarantor shall pay to Lender upon demand all reasonable attorney's fees, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, court costs, filing fees, recording costs, expenses of foreclosure, title insurance premiums, survey costs, minutes of foreclosure, and all other costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith (all of which are referred to herein as "Enforcement Costs"), in addition to all other amounts due hereunder.
8. The parties hereto intend that each provision in this Guaranty comports with all applicable local, state and federal laws and judicial decisions. However, if any provision or provisions, or if any portion of any provision or provisions, in this Guaranty is found by a
court of law to be in violation of any applicable local, state or federal ordinance, statute, law, administrative or judicial decision, or public policy, and if such court should declare such portion, provision or provisions of this Guaranty to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable as written, then it is the intent of all parties hereto that such portion, provision or provisions shall be given force to the fullest possible extent that they are legal, valid and enforceable, that the remainder of this Guaranty shall be construed as if such illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable portion, provision or provisions were not contained therein, and that the rights, obligations and interest of Lender or the holder of the Note or any Competitive Bid Loan Note under the remainder of this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect.
9. Any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor now or hereafter existing is hereby subordinated to the Facility Indebtedness. Guarantor agrees that until the entire Facility Indebtedness has been paid in full, (i) Guarantor will not seek, accept, or retain for Guarantor's own account, any payment from Borrower on account of such subordinated debt, and (ii) any such payments to Guarantor on account of such subordinated debt shall be collected and received by Guarantor in trust for Lender and shall be paid over to Lender on account of the Facility Indebtedness without impairing or releasing the obligations of Guarantor hereunder.
10. Guarantor waives and releases any claim (within the meaning of 11
U.S.C. Section 101) which Guarantor may have against Borrower arising from a
payment made by Guarantor under this Guaranty and agrees not to assert or take
advantage of any subrogation rights of Guarantor or Lender or any right of
Guarantor or Lender to proceed against (i) Borrower for reimbursement, or
(ii) any other guarantor or any collateral security or guaranty or right of
offset held by Lender for the payment of the Facility Indebtedness and
performance of the Obligations, nor shall Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek
any contribution or reimbursement from Borrower or any other guarantor in
respect of payments made by Guarantor hereunder. It is expressly understood that
the waivers and agreements of Guarantor set forth above constitute additional
and cumulative benefits given to Lender for its security and as an inducement
for its extension of credit to Borrower. Nothing contained in this Paragraph 10
is intended to prohibit Guarantor from making all distributions to its
constituent shareholders which are required by law from time to time in order
for Guarantor to maintain its status as a real estate investment trust in
compliance with all applicable provisions of the Code (as defined in the
Revolving Credit Agreement).
11. Any amounts received by Lender from any source on account of any indebtedness may be applied by Lender toward the payment of such indebtedness, and in such order of application, as Lender may from time to time elect.
12. The Guarantor hereby submits to personal jurisdiction in the State of Illinois for the enforcement of this Guaranty and waives any and all personal rights to object to such jurisdiction for the purposes of litigation to enforce this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby consents
to the jurisdiction of either the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, or the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, in any action, suit, or proceeding which Lender may at any time wish to file in connection with this Guaranty or any related matter. Guarantor hereby agrees that an action, suit, or proceeding to enforce this Guaranty may be brought in any state or federal court in the State of Illinois and hereby waives any objection which Guarantor may have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit, or proceeding in any such court; provided, however, that the provisions of this Paragraph shall not be deemed to preclude Lender from filing any such action, suit, or proceeding in any other appropriate forum.
13. All notices and other communications provided to any party hereto under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be in writing or by telex or by facsimile and addressed or delivered to such party at its address set forth below or at such other address as may be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties. Any notice, if mailed and properly addressed with postage prepaid, shall be deemed given when received; any notice, if transmitted by telex or facsimile, shall be deemed given when transmitted (answerback confirmed in the case of telexes).

FORM OF ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT
This Assignment Agreement (this "Assignment Agreement") between ________ ________________(the "Assignor") and __________________ (the "Assignee") is dated as of____________, 19 . The parties hereto agree as follows:
1. PRELIMINARY STATEMENT. The Assignor is a party to an Unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement (which, as it may be amended, modified, renewed or extended from time to time is herein called the "Credit Agreement") described in Item 1 of Schedule 1 attached hereto ("Schedule 1"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Credit Agreement.
2. ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION. The Assignor hereby sells and assigns to the Assignee, and the Assignee hereby purchases and assumes from the Assignor, an interest in and to the Assignor's rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement such that after giving effect to such assignment the Assignee shall have purchased pursuant to this Assignment Agreement the percentage interest specified in Item 3 of Schedule 1 of all outstanding rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The aggregate Commitment (or Loans, if the applicable Commitment has been terminated) purchased by the Assignee hereunder is set forth in Item 4 of Schedule 1.
3. EFFECTIVE DATE. The effective date of this Assignment Agreement (the "Effective Date") shall be the later of the date specified in Item 5 of Schedule 1 or two (2) Business Days (or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent) after a Notice of Assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit "I" attached hereto has been delivered to the Agent. In no event will the Effective Date occur if the payments required to be made by the Assignee to the Assignor on the Effective Date under Sections 4 and 5 hereof are not made on the proposed Effective Date, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Assignor and Assignee. The Assignor will notify the Assignee of the proposed Effective Date no later than the Business Day prior to the proposed Effective Date. As of the Effective Date, (i) the Assignee shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to the rights and obligations assigned to the Assignee hereunder and (ii) the Assignor shall relinquish its rights and be released from its corresponding obligations under the Loan Documents with respect to the rights and obligations assigned to the Assignee hereunder.
4. PAYMENTS OBLIGATIONS. On and after the Effective Date, the Assignee shall be entitled to receive from the Administrative Agent all payments of principal, interest and fees with respect to the interest assigned hereby. The Assignee shall advance funds directly to the Administrative Agent with respect to all Loans and reimbursement payments made on or after the Effective Date with respect to the interest assigned hereby. [In
consideration for the sale and assignment of Loans hereunder, (i) the Assignee shall pay the Assignor, on the Effective Date, an amount equal to the principal amount of the portion of all Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Loans assigned to the Assignee hereunder and (ii) with respect to each ratable LIBOR Advance and Competitive Bid Loan made by the Assignor and assigned to the Assignee hereunder which is outstanding on the Effective Date, (a) on the last day of the Interest Period therefor or (b) on such earlier date agreed to by the Assignor and the Assignee or (c) on the date on which any such Loan either becomes due (by acceleration or otherwise) or is prepaid (the date as described in the foregoing clauses (a), (b) or (c) being hereinafter referred to as the "Fixed Due Date"), the Assignee shall pay the Assignor an amount equal to the principal amount of the portion of such Loan assigned to the Assignee which is outstanding on the Fixed Due Date. If the Assignor and the Assignee agree that the applicable Fixed Due Date for such Loan shall be the Effective Date, they shall agree, solely for purposes of dividing interest paid by the Borrower on such Loan, to an alternate interest rate applicable to the portion of such Loan assigned hereunder for the period from the Effective Date to the end of the related Interest Period (the "Agreed Interest Rate") and any interest received by the Assignee in excess of the Agreed Interest Rate, with respect to such Loan for such period, shall be remitted to the Assignor. In the event a prepayment of any Loan which is existing on the Effective Date and assigned by the Assignor to the Assignee hereunder occurs after the Effective Date but before the applicable Fixed Due Date, the Assignee shall remit to the Assignor any excess of the funding indemnification amount paid by the Borrower under Section 4.4 of the Credit Agreement an account of such prepayment with respect to the portion of such Loan assigned to the Assignee hereunder over the amount which would have been paid if such prepayment amount were calculated based on the Agreed Interest Rate and only covered the portion of the Interest Period after the Effective Date. The Assignee will promptly remit to the Assignor (i) the portion of any principal payments assigned hereunder and received from the Administrative Agent with respect to any such Loan prior to its Fixed Due Date and (ii) any amounts of interest on Loans and fees received from the Administrative Agent which relate to the portion of the Loans assigned to the Assignee hereunder for periods prior to the Effective Date, in the case of ratable Adjusted Corporate Base Rate Loans or Fees, or the Fixed Due Date, in the case of LIBOR Loans and Competitive Bid Loans, and not previously paid by the Assignee to the Assignor.]* In the event that either party hereto receives any payment to which the other party hereto is entitled under this Assignment Agreement, then the party receiving such amount shall promptly remit it to the other party hereto.
5. FEES PAYABLE BY THE ASSIGNEE. The Assignee shall pay to the Assignor a fee on each day on which a payment of interest or Commitment Fees or Facility Fees is made under the Credit Agreement with respect to the amounts assigned to the Assignee hereunder (other than a payment of interest or Commitment Fees or Facility Fees attributable to the period prior to the Effective Date or, in the case of LIBOR Loans and Competitive Bid Loans, the Payment Date, which the Assignee is obligated to deliver to the Assignor pursuant to Section 4 hereof). The amount of such fee shall be the difference between (i) the interest or fee, as applicable, paid with respect to the amounts assigned to the Assignee hereunder and (ii) the interest or fee, as applicable, which would have been paid with respect to the amounts
assigned to the Assignee hereunder if each interest rate was calculated at the rate of % rather than the actual percentage used to calculate the interest rate paid by the Borrower or if the Commitment Fee or Facility Fee was calculated at the rate of % rather than the actual percentage used to calculate the Commitment Fee or Facility Fee paid by the Borrower, as applicable. In addition, the Assignee agrees to pay ___% of the fee required to be paid to the Agent in connection with this Assignment Agreement.

SECTION 4.3 NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES.

SECTION 4.4 CAPITAL ACCOUNTS.
(A) The Partnership shall establish and maintain a separate Capital Account for each Partner in accordance with Code Section 704 and Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). The Capital Account of each Partner shall be credited with:
(1) the amount of all Capital Contributions made to the Partnership by such Partner in accordance with this Agreement; plus
(2) all income and gain of the Partnership computed in accordance with this Section 4.4 and allocated to such Partner pursuant to Article V (including for purposes of this Section 4.4(A), income and gain exempt from tax);
and shall be debited with the sum of:
(1) all losses or deductions of the Partnership computed in accordance with this Section 4.4 and allocated to such Partner pursuant to Article V,
(2) such Partner's distributive share of expenditures of the Partnership described in Code Section 705(a)(2)(B), and
(3) all cash and the Agreed Value (reduced to take into account the amount of any related indebtedness assumed by the Partner, or to which the distributed property is subject) of any property actually distributed or deemed distributed by the Partnership to such Partner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
Any reference in any section or subsection of this Agreement to the Capital Account of a Partner shall be deemed to refer to such Capital Account as the same may be credited or debited from time to time as set forth above.
(B) For purposes of computing the amount of any item of income, gain, deduction or loss to be reflected in the Partners' Capital Accounts, the determination, recognition and classification of each such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for federal income tax purposes, determined in accordance with Code Section 703(a) and accounting for those adjustments set forth in the definition of Profits and Losses, with the following additional adjustments:
(1) the computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be made without regard to any Code Section 754 election that may be made by the Partnership, except to the extent required in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m); and
(2) in the event the Book Value of any Partnership Asset is adjusted pursuant to Section 4.4(D) below, the amount of such adjustment shall be treated as gain or loss from the disposition of such asset.
(C) Any transferee of a Partnership Interest shall succeed to a pro rata portion of the transferor's Capital Account transferred.
(D) Consistent with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), (i) immediately prior to the acquisition of an additional Partnership Interest by any new or existing Partner in connection with the contribution of money or other property (other than a de minimis amount) to the Partnership, (ii) immediately prior to the distribution by the Partnership to a Partner of Partnership property (other than a de minimis amount) as consideration for a Partnership Interest and (iii) immediately prior to the liquidation of the Partnership as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), the Book Value of all Partnership Assets shall be revalued upward or downward to reflect the fair market value of each such Partnership Asset as determined by the General Partner using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt.
(E) The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.4 are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations. In the event the General Partner shall determine that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Partners' Capital Accounts are computed hereunder in order to comply with such Treasury Regulations, the General Partner may make such modification if such modification is not likely to have a material effect on the amount distributable to any Partner under the terms of this Agreement and the General Partner notifies the other Partners in writing of such modification prior to making such modification.
SECTION 4.5 RETURN OF CAPITAL ACCOUNT; INTEREST. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, (i) no Partner shall have any right to withdraw or reduce its Capital Contributions or Capital Account, or to demand and receive property other than cash from the Partnership in return for its Capital Contributions or Capital Account; (ii) no Partner shall have any priority over any other Partners as to the return of its Capital Contributions or Capital Account; (iii) any return of Capital Contributions or Capital Accounts to the Partners shall be solely from the Partnership Assets, and no Partner shall be personally liable for any such return; and (iv) no interest shall be paid by the Partnership on Capital Contributions or on balances in Partners' Capital Accounts.
SECTION 4.6 PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS. No Person shall have any preemptive or similar rights with respect to the issuance or sale of additional Partnership Units.

If the General Partner acquires additional REIT Shares pursuant to Article IX of the REIT Charter, the Partnership shall purchase from the General Partner that number of Partnership Units determined by applying the Conversion Multiple to the number of REIT Shares purchased by the General Partner at the same price and on the same terms as those upon which the General Partner purchased such REIT Shares.
SECTION 5.1 LIMITED LIABILITY. For bookkeeping purposes, the Profits of the Partnership shall be shared, and the Losses of the Partnership shall be borne, by the Partners as provided in Section 5.2 below; provided, however, that except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither any Limited Partner (in its capacity as a Limited Partner), the Class B Limited Partner (in its capacity as Class B Limited Partner), the Class C Limited Partner (in its capacity as Class C Limited Partner), the Class D Limited Partner (in its capacity as Class D Limited Partner) nor the Class E Limited Partner (in its capacity as Class E Limited Partner) shall be personally liable for losses, costs, expenses, liabilities or obligations of the Partnership in excess of its Capital Contribution required under Article IV hereof.
SECTION 5.2 PROFITS, LOSSES AND DISTRIBUTIVE SHARES.
(A) PROFITS. After giving effect to the special allocations, if any, provided in Section 5.2(C), (D), (I), (J) and (K) Profits in each Fiscal Year shall be allocated in the following order:
(1) First, to the General Partner until the cumulative Profits allocated to the General Partner under this Section 5.2(A)(1), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year equal the cumulative Losses allocated to such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(6), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year;
(2) Second, to the Class B Limited Partner, Class C Limited Partner, Class D Limited Partner and Class E Limited Partner, in proportion to the cumulative Losses allocated to each such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(5), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year until the Cumulative Profits allocated to each such Partner under this Section 5.2(A)(2) equal the cumulative Losses allocated to each such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(5), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year;
(3) Third, to each Partner in proportion to the cumulative Losses allocated to such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(4), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year, until the cumulative Profits allocated to such Partner under this Section 5.2(A)(3) equal the cumulative Losses allocated to such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(4), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year;
(4) Fourth, to the General Partner until the cumulative Profits allocated to the General Partner under this Section 5.2(A)(4), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year equal the cumulative Losses allocated to such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(3), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year;
(5) Fifth, to each Partner in proportion to the cumulative Losses allocated to such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(2), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year, until the cumulative Profits allocated to such Partner under this Section 5.2(A)(5) equal the cumulative Losses allocated to such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(2), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year;
(6) Sixth, to each Partner in proportion to the cumulative Losses allocated to such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(1), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year, until the cumulative Profits allocated to such Partner under this Section 5.2(A)(6) equal the cumulative Losses allocated to such Partner under Section 5.2(B)(1), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year; and
(7) Then, the balance, if any, to the Partners in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.
(B) LOSSES. After giving effect to the special allocations, if any, provided in Section 5.2(C), (D), (I), (J) and (K), Losses in each Fiscal Year shall be allocated in the following order of priority:
(1) First, to the Partners (other than the Class B Limited Partner, the Class C Limited Partner, the Class D Limited Partner and the Class E Limited Partner), in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, but not in excess of the positive Adjusted Capital Account balance of any Partner prior to the allocation provided for in this Section 5.2(B)(1);
(2) Second, to the Partners (other than the Class B Limited Partner, the Class C Limited Partner, the Class D Limited Partner and the Class E Limited Partner) with positive Adjusted Capital Account balances prior to the allocation provided for in this Section 5.2(B)(2), in proportion to the amount of such balances until all such balances are reduced to zero;
(3) Third, to the General Partner until (i) the excess of (a) the cumulative Losses allocated under this Section 5.2(B)(3), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year, over (b) the cumulative Profits allocated under Section 5.2(a)(4), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year, equals (ii) the excess of (a) the amount of Recourse Liabilities over (b) the Aggregate Protected Amount;
(4) Fourth, to and among the Contributor Partners, in accordance with their respective Protected Amounts, until the excess of (a) the cumulative Losses allocated under this Section 5.2(B)(4), whether in the current
or in any prior Fiscal Year, over (b) the cumulative Profits allocated under 5.2(A)(3), whether in the current or in any prior Fiscal Year, equals the Aggregate Protected Amount (as of the close of the Fiscal Year to which such allocation relates);
(5) Fifth, to the Class B Limited Partner, the Class C Limited Partner, the Class D Limited Partner and the Class E Limited Partner, in accordance with their respective Adjusted Capital Accounts, until their Adjusted Capital Accounts are reduced to zero; and
(6) Thereafter, to the General Partner;
provided, however, (i) that, from and following the first Fiscal Year upon which
a Contributor Partner is no longer a Partner of the Partnership, the provisions
of this Section 5.2(B) shall be null, void and without further force and effect
with respect to such Contributor Partner; (ii) that, this Section 5.2(B) shall
control, notwithstanding any reallocation or adjustment of taxable income, loss
or other items by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority;
provided, however, that neither the Partnership nor the General Partner (nor any
of their respective affiliates) is required to indemnify any Contributor Partner
(or its affiliates) for the loss of any tax benefit resulting from any
reallocation or adjustment of taxable income, loss or other items by the
Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority; and (iii) that, during such
period as there are Contributor Partners in the Partnership, the provisions of
Section 5.2(B)(4) shall not be amended in a manner which adversely affects the
Contributor Partners (without the consent of each Contributor Partner so
affected).
(C) SPECIAL ALLOCATIONS. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the following special allocations will be made in the following order and priority:
(1) PARTNERSHIP MINIMUM GAIN CHARGEBACK. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article V, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any tax year or other period for which allocations are made, each Partner will be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for that tax year or other period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in an amount equal to such Partner's share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during such tax year or other period determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Partner pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 5.2(C)(1) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith, including the exceptions to the minimum gain chargeback requirement set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and (3). If the General Partner concludes, after consultation with tax counsel, that the Partnership meets the requirements for a waiver of the minimum gain chargeback requirement as set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(4), the General Partner may take steps reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to obtain such waiver.
(2) PARTNER NONRECOURSE DEBT MINIMUM GAIN CHARGEBACK. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section (other than Section 5.2(C)(1) which shall be applied before this Section 5.2(C)(2)), if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain during any tax year or other period for which allocations are made, each Partner with a share of Partner Minimum Gain determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704- 2(i)(5) shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for that period (and, if necessary, subsequent periods) in an amount equal to such Partner's share of the net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii). This Section 5.2(C)(2) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements of Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith, including the exceptions set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(2) and (3) to the extent such exceptions apply to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4). If the General Partner concludes, after consultation with tax counsel, that the Partnership meets the requirements for a waiver of the Partner Minimum Gain chargeback requirement set forth in Treasury Regulation 1.704-2(f), but only to the extent such exception applies to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), the General Partner may take steps necessary or appropriate to obtain such waiver.
(3) QUALIFIED INCOME OFFSET. A Partner who unexpectedly receives any adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) will be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by Treasury Regulations 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Partner as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.2(C)(3) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Partner would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Article V have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.2(C)(3) were not contained in this Agreement.
(4) PARTNERSHIP NONRECOURSE DEDUCTIONS. Partnership Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable year or other period for which allocations are made will be allocated among the Partners in proportion to their respective Partnership Interests in the Partnership.
(5) PARTNER NONRECOURSE DEDUCTIONS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any taxable year or other period for which allocations are made will be allocated to the Partner who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the liability to which the Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i).
(6) CODE SECTION 754 ADJUSTMENTS. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset under Code Section 734(b) or 743(b) is required to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or (4), the amount of the adjustment to the Capital Accounts will be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases the basis of the asset), and the gain or loss will be specially allocated to the Partners in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).
(7) DEPRECIATION RECAPTURE. In the event there is any recapture of Depreciation or investment tax credit, the allocation thereof shall be made among the Partners in the same proportion as the deduction for such Depreciation or investment tax credit was allocated.
(8) INTEREST IN PARTNERSHIP. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no allocation of Profit or Loss (or item of Profit or Loss) will be made to a Partner if the allocation would not have "economic effect" under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(a) or otherwise would not be in accordance with the Partner's interest in the Partnership within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(3).
(D) CURATIVE ALLOCATIONS. The allocations set forth in Section 5.2(C)(1) through (8) (the "Regulatory Allocations") are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in which the Partners intend to divide Partnership distributions. Accordingly, the General Partner is authorized to further allocate Profits, Losses, and other items among the Partners in a reasonable manner so as to prevent the Regulatory Allocations from distorting the manner in which Partnership distributions would be divided among the Partners under Section 5.3, but for application of the Regulatory Allocations. In general, the reallocation will be accomplished by specially allocating
other Profits, Losses and items of income, gain, loss and deduction, to the extent they exist, among the Partners so that the net amount of the Regulatory Allocations and the special allocations to each Partner is zero. The General Partner may accomplish this result in any reasonable manner that is consistent with Code Section 704 and the related Treasury Regulations.
(E) TAX ALLOCATIONS.
(1) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.2(E)(2), each
item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated for federal income
tax purposes in the same manner as each correlative item of income, gain, loss
or deduction, is allocated for book purposes pursuant to the provisions of
Section 5.1 hereof.
(2) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article V, in an attempt to eliminate any Book-Tax Disparity with respect to a Contributed Property, items of income, gain, loss or deduction with respect to each such property shall be allocated for federal income tax purposes among the Partners as follows:
(a) Depreciation, Amortization and Other Cost Recovery
Items. In the case of each Contributed Property with a
Book-Tax Disparity, any item of depreciation, amortization or
other cost recovery allowance attributable to such property
shall be allocated as follows: (x) first, to Partners (the
"Non-Contributing Partners") other than the Partners who
contributed such property to the Partnership (or are deemed to
have contributed the property pursuant to Section 4.1(A) (the
"Contributing Partners") in an amount up to the book
allocation of such items made to the NonContributing Partners
pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof, pro rata in proportion to the
respective amount of book items so allocated to the
Non-Contributing Partners pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof; and
(y) any remaining depreciation, amortization or other cost
recovery allowance to the Contributing Partners in proportion
to their Percentage Interests. In no event shall the total
depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery allowance
allocated hereunder exceed the amount of the Partnership's
depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery allowance
with respect to such property.
(b) Gain or Loss on Disposition. In the event the Partnership sells or otherwise disposes of a Contributed Property with a Book-Tax Disparity, any gain or loss recognized by the Partnership in connection with such sale or other disposition shall be allocated among the Partners as follows: (x) first, any gain or loss shall be allocated to the Contributing Partners in proportion to their Percentage Interests to the extent required to eliminate any Book-Tax Disparity with respect to such property; and (y) any remaining gain or loss shall be allocated among the Partners in the same manner that the correlative items of book gain or loss are allocated among the Partners pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof.
(3) In the event the Book Value of a Partnership Asset
(including a Contributed Property) is adjusted pursuant to Section 4.4(D)
hereof, all items of income, gain, loss or deduction in respect of such property
shall be allocated for federal income tax purposes among the Partners in the
same manner as provided in Section 5.2(E)(2) hereof to take into account any
variation between the fair market value of the property, as determined by the
General Partner using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt, and
the Book Value of such property, both determined as of the date of such
adjustment.
(4) The General Partner shall have the authority to elect alternative methods to eliminate the Book- Tax Disparity with respect to one or more Contributed Properties, as permitted by Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-3 and 1.704-3T, and such election shall be binding on all of the Partners.
(5) The Partners hereby intend that the allocation of tax
items pursuant to this Section 5.2(E) comply with the requirements of Code
Section 704(c) and Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-3 and 1.704-3T.
(6) The allocation of items of income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 5.2(E) are solely for federal, state and local income tax purposes, and the Capital Account balances of the Partners shall be adjusted solely for allocations of "book" items in respect of Partnership Assets pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof.
(F) OTHER ALLOCATION RULES. The following rules will apply to the calculation and allocation of Profits, Losses and other items:
(1) Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement, all Profits, Losses and other items allocated to the Partners will be allocated among them in proportion to their Percentage Interests.
(2) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses or any other item allocable to any period, Profits, Losses and other items will be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis, as determined by the General Partner using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the related Treasury Regulations.
(3) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all items of Partnership income, gain, loss and deduction, and other allocations not provided for in this Agreement will be divided among the Partners in the same proportions as they share Profits and Losses, provided that any credits shall be allocated in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(ii).
(4) For purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.752-3(a),
the Partners hereby agree that any Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Partnership in
excess of the sum of (i) the Partnership Minimum Gain and (ii) the aggregate
amount of taxable gain that would be allocated to the Partners under Section
704(c) (or in the same manner as Section 704(c) in connection with a revaluation
of Partnership property) if the Partnership disposed of (in a taxable
transaction) all Partnership property subject to one or more Nonrecourse
Liabilities of the Partnership in full satisfaction of such Liabilities and for
no other consideration, shall be allocated among the Partners in accordance with
their respective shares of Profits. The General Partner shall have discretion in
any Fiscal Year to allocate such excess Nonrecourse Liabilities among the
Partners (a) in a manner reasonably consistent with allocations (that have
substantial economic effect) of some other significant item of Partnership
income or gain or (b) in accordance with the manner in which it is reasonably
expected that the deductions attributable to the excess Nonrecourse Liabilities
will be allocated.
(G) PARTNER ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The Partners agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 5.2 in reporting their shares of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for income tax purposes.
(H) REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. The foregoing provisions of this
Section 5.2 relating to the allocation of Profits, Losses and other items for
federal income tax purposes are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations
Sections 1.704-1(b), 1.704-2, 1.704-3 and 1.704-3T and shall be interpreted and
applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations.

(J) CLASS C PRIORITY ALLOCATION. The holders of the Class C Units shall be allocated gross income such that, from the inception of the partnership through the end of the Fiscal Year to which the allocation relates, including the year of liquidation of the Partnership in accordance with Article X, the sum of all priority allocations pursuant to this Section 5.2(J) equals (or approaches as nearly as possible) the sum of all Class C Priority Return Amounts accrued through the end of the fiscal year to which the allocation relates.

Except as set forth in this Agreement, the Limited Partners shall not have any authority, right, or power to bind the Partnership, or to manage, or to participate in the management of the business and affairs of the Partnership in any manner whatsoever.

Neither the Limited Partners, the Class B
Limited Partner, in its capacity as Class B Limited Partner, the Class C Limited Partner, in its capacity as Class C Limited Partner, the Class D Limited Partner, in its capacity as Class D Limited Partner, nor the Class E Limited Partner, in its capacity as Class E Limited Partner, shall have any rights other than those specifically provided herein or granted by law where consistent with a valid provision hereof. Any approvals rendered or withheld by the Limited Partners, the Class B Limited Partner, the Class C Limited Partner, the Class D Limited Partner or the Class E Limited Partner pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed as consultation with or advice to the General Partner in connection with the business of the Partnership and, in accordance with the Act, shall not be deemed as participation by the Limited Partners, the Class B Limited Partner, the Class C Limited Partner, the Class D Limited Partner or the Class E Limited Partner in the business of the Partnership and are not intended to create any inference that the Limited Partners, the Class B Limited Partner, the Class C Limited Partner, the Class D Limited Partner or the Class E Limited Partner should be classified as general partners under the Act.

(B) No action shall be taken by a Partner if it would cause the Partnership to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes or, without the consent of the General Partner, as a publicly-traded partnership within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code. A determination of whether such action will have the above described effect shall be based upon a declaratory judgment or similar relief obtained from a court of competent jurisdiction, a favorable ruling from the IRS or the receipt of an opinion of counsel.
SECTION 6.4 BUSINESS WITH AFFILIATES.
(A) The General Partner, in its discretion, may cause the
Partnership to transact business with any Partner or its Affiliates for goods or
services reasonably required in the conduct of the Partnership's business;
provided that any such transaction shall be effected only on terms competitive
with those that may be obtained in the marketplace from unaffiliated Persons.
The foregoing proviso shall not apply to transactions between the Partnership
and its Subsidiaries. In addition, neither the General Partner nor any Affiliate
of the General Partner may sell, transfer or otherwise convey any property to,
or purchase any property from, the Partnership, except (i) on terms competitive
with those that may be obtained in the marketplace from unaffiliated Persons or
(ii) where the General Partner determines, in its sole judgment, that such sale,
transfer or conveyance confers benefits on the General Partner or the
Partnership in respect of matters of tax or corporate or financial structure;
provided, in the
case of this clause (ii), such sale, transfer, or conveyance is not being effected for the purpose of materially disadvantaging the Limited Partners.
(B) In furtherance of Section 6.4(A), the Partnership may lend or contribute to its Subsidiaries on terms and conditions established by the General Partner.
SECTION 6.5 COMPENSATION; REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES. In consideration for the General Partner's services to the Partnership in its capacity as General Partner, the Partnership shall pay on behalf of or reimburse to the General Partner (i) all expenses of the General Partner incurred in connection with the management of the business and affairs of the Partnership, including all employee compensation of employees of the General Partner and indemnity or other payments made pursuant to agreements entered into in furtherance of the Partnership's business, (ii) all amounts payable by the General Partner under the Registration Rights Agreement and (iii) all general and administrative expenses incurred by the General Partner.

In exercising its authority hereunder, the General Partner may, but shall not be under any obligation to, take into account the tax consequences to any Partner of any action it undertakes on behalf of the Partnership. Neither the General Partner nor the Partnership shall have any liability as a result of any income tax liability incurred by a Partner as a result of any action or inaction of the General Partner hereunder and, by their execution of this Agreement, the Limited Partners acknowledge the foregoing.

(1) The General Partner acknowledges that it owes fiduciary duties both to its stockholders and to the Limited Partners and it shall use its reasonable efforts to discharge such duties to each; provided, however, that in the event of a conflict between the interests of the stockholders of the General Partner and the interests of the Limited Partners, the Limited Partners agree that the General Partner shall discharge its fiduciary duties to the Limited Partners by acting in the best interests of the General Partner's stockholders. Nothing contained in the preceding sentence shall be construed as entitling the General Partner to realize any profit or gain from any transaction between the General Partner and the Partnership (except in connection with a distribution in accordance with this Agreement), including from the lending of money by the General Partner to the Partnership or the contribution of property by the General Partner to the Partnership, it being understood that in any such transaction the General Partner shall be entitled to cost recovery only.
SECTION 6.7 INDEMNIFICATION.
(A) The Partnership shall indemnify the General Partner and each director, officer and stockholder of the General Partner and each Person (including any Affiliate) designated as an agent by the General Partner in its reasonable discretion (each, an "Indemnified Party") to the fullest extent permitted under the Act (including any procedures set forth therein regarding advancement of expenses to such Indemnified Party) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, settlements and any other amounts arising out of or in connection with any claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings (civil, criminal or administrative) relating to or resulting (directly or indirectly) from the operations of the Partnership, in which such Indemnified Party becomes involved, or reasonably believes it may become involved, as a result of the capacity referred to above.
(B) The Partnership shall have the authority to purchase and maintain such insurance policies on behalf of the Indemnified Parties as the General Partner shall determine, which policies may cover those liabilities the General Partner reasonably believes may be incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with the operation of the business of the Partnership. The right to procure such insurance on behalf of the Indemnified Parties shall in no way mitigate or otherwise affect the right of any such Indemnified Party to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.7(A) hereof.
(C) The provisions of this Section 6.7 are for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights in or benefit to any other Person.

SECTION 7.2 ANNUAL AUDIT AND ACCOUNTING. The books and records of the Partnership shall be kept for financial and tax reporting purposes on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

SECTION 7.5 TAX MATTERS.
(A) The General Partner shall be the Tax Matters Partner of the Partnership for federal income tax matters pursuant to Code Section 6231(a)(7)(A). The Tax Matters Partner is authorized and required to represent the Partnership (at the expense of the Partnership) in connection with all examinations of the affairs of the Partnership by any federal, state, or local tax authorities, including any resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend funds of the Partnership for professional services and costs associated therewith. The Tax Matters Partner shall deliver to the Limited Partners within ten (10) business days of the receipt thereof a copy of any notice or other communication with respect to the Partnership received from the IRS (or other governmental tax authority), or any court, in each case with respect to any administrative or judicial proceeding involving the Partnership. The Partners agree to cooperate with each other in connection with the conduct of all proceedings pursuant to this Section 7.5(A).
(B) The Tax Matters Partner shall receive no compensation for its services in such capacity. If the Tax Matters Partner incurs any costs related to any tax audit, declaration of any tax deficiency or any administrative proceeding or litigation involving any Partnership tax matter, such amount shall be an expense of the Partnership and the Tax Matters Partner shall be entitled to full reimbursement therefor.
(C) The General Partner shall cause to be prepared all federal, state and local income tax returns required of the Partnership at the Partnership's expense.
(D) Except as set forth herein, the General Partner shall determine whether to make (and, if necessary, revoke) any tax election available to the Partnership under the Code or any state tax law; provided, however, upon the request of any Partner, the General Partner shall make the election under Code Section 754 and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. The Partnership shall elect to deduct expenses, if any, incurred by it in organizing the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 709.
SECTION 7.6 WITHHOLDING. Each Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership
to withhold from or pay to any taxing authority on behalf of such Partner any
tax that the General Partner determines the Partnership is required to withhold
or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Partner.
Any amount paid to any taxing authority which does not constitute a reduction in
the amount otherwise distributable to such Partner shall be treated as a loan
from the Partnership to such Partner, which loan shall bear interest at the
"prime rate" as published from time to time in The Wall Street Journal plus two
(2) percentage points, and shall be repaid within ten (10) business days after
request for repayment from the General Partner. The obligation to repay any such
loan
shall be secured by such Partner's Partnership Interest and each Partner hereby grants the Partnership a security interest in his Partnership Interest for the purposes set forth in this Section 7.6, this Section 7.6 being intended to serve as a security agreement for purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code with the General Partner having in respect hereof all of the remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. Each Partner agrees to take such reasonable actions as the General Partner may request to perfect and continue the perfection of the security interest granted hereby. In the event any Partner fails to repay any deemed loan pursuant to this Section 7.6 the Partnership shall be entitled to avail itself of any rights and remedies it may have. Furthermore, upon the expiration of ten (10) business days after demand for payment, the General Partner shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make the payment to the Partnership on behalf of the defaulting Partner and thereupon be subrogated to the rights of the Partnership with respect to such defaulting Partner.
SECTION 8.1 TRANSFER BY GENERAL PARTNER. The General Partner may not voluntarily withdraw or Transfer all or any portion of its General Partner Interest.

SECTION 8.2 OBLIGATIONS OF A PRIOR GENERAL PARTNER. Upon an Involuntary Withdrawal of the General Partner and the subsequent Transfer of the General Partner's Interest, such General Partner shall (i) remain liable for all obligations and liabilities (other than Partnership liabilities payable solely from Partnership Assets) incurred by it as General Partner before the effective date of such event and (ii) pay all costs associated with the admission of its Successor General Partner. However, such General Partner shall be free of and held harmless by the Partnership against any obligation or liability incurred on account of the activities of the Partnership from and after the effective date of such event, except as provided in this Agreement.
SECTION 8.3 SUCCESSOR GENERAL PARTNER. A successor to all of a General Partner's General Partner Interest who is proposed to be admitted to the Partnership as a Successor General Partner shall be admitted as the General Partner, effective upon the Transfer. Any such transferee shall carry on the business of the Partnership without dissolution. In addition, the following conditions must be satisfied:
(A) The Person shall have accepted and agreed to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement by executing a counterpart thereof and such other documents or instruments as may be required or appropriate in order to effect the admission of such Person as a General Partner; and

Any such purported transfer undertaken
without such Consent shall be considered to be null and void ab initio and shall not be given effect. Each Limited Partner acknowledges that the General Partner has agreed not to grant any such consent prior to the Transfer Restriction Date.
(B) No Limited Partner may withdraw from the Partnership other than as a result of a permitted Transfer (i.e., a Transfer consented to as contemplated by clause (A) above or clause (D) below or a Transfer pursuant to clause (C) below) of all of his Partnership Units pursuant to this Article VIII or pursuant to a redemption or exchange of all of his Partnership Units pursuant to Article IX. Upon the permitted Transfer or redemption of all of a Limited Partner's Partnership Units, such Limited Partner shall cease to be a Limited Partner.
(C) Upon the Involuntary Withdrawal of any Limited Partner (which shall under no circumstance cause the dissolution of the Partnership), the executor, administrator, trustee, guardian, receiver or conservator of such Limited Partner's estate shall become a Substituted Limited Partner upon compliance with the provisions of Section 8.5(A)(1)-(3).

created by such Limited Partner for the benefit of such Limited Partner and/or
any such person(s), of which trust such Limited Partner or any such person(s) is
a trustee, (b) a corporation controlled by a Person or Persons named in (a)
above, or (c) if the Limited Partner is an entity, its beneficial owners, and
the General Partner shall grant its Consent to any Transfer pursuant to this
Section 8.4(D) unless such Transfer, in the reasonable judgment of the General
Partner, would cause (or have the potential to cause) the General Partner to
fail to qualify for taxation as a REIT, in which case the General Partner shall
have the absolute right to refuse to permit such Transfer, and any purported
Transfer in violation of this Section 8.4(D) shall be null and void ab initio.
(E) No Transfer of Limited Partnership Units shall be made if such
Transfer would (i) in the opinion of Partnership counsel, cause the Partnership
to be terminated for federal income tax purposes or to be treated as an
association taxable as a corporation (rather than a partnership) for federal
income tax purposes; (ii) be effected through an "established securities market"
or a "secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)" within the
meaning of Code Section 7704 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, (iii) in
the opinion of Partnership counsel, violate the provisions of applicable
securities laws; (iv) violate the terms of (or result in a default or
acceleration under) any law, rule, regulation, agreement or commitment binding
on the Partnership; (v) cause the Partnership to become, with respect to any
employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a "party-in-interest" (as
defined in Section 3(14) of ERISA) or a "disqualified person" (as defined in

cause any portion of the underlying assets of the Partnership to constitute
assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to Department of Labor Regulations

(3) The assignor or transferee pays all costs and fees incurred or charged by the Partnership to effect the Transfer and substitution; and
(4) The assignor or transferee obtains the written Consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion.

Such Assignee shall be entitled, however, to all the rights of an assignee of a limited partnership interest under the Act. Any Assignee wishing to Transfer the Partnership Units acquired shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Article VIII.
SECTION 8.6 TIMING AND EFFECT OF TRANSFERS. Unless the General Partner agrees otherwise, Transfers under this Article VIII may only be made as of the first day of a fiscal quarter of the Partnership. Upon any Transfer of a Partnership Interest in accordance with this Article VIII or redemption of a Partnership Interest in accordance with Article IX, the Partnership shall allocate all items of Profit and Loss between the assignor Partner and the transferee Partner in accordance with Section 5.2(F)(2) hereof. The assignor Partner shall have the right to receive all distributions as to which the Record Date precedes the date of Transfer and the transferee Partner shall have the right to receive all distributions thereafter.
SECTION 8.7 ADDITIONAL LIMITED PARTNERS. Other than in accordance with
the transactions specified in the Contribution Agreements, after the initial
execution of this Agreement and the admission to the Partnership of the Initial
Limited Partners, any Person making a Capital Contribution to the Partnership in

Partnership only (i) with the Consent of the General Partner and (ii) upon
execution, adoption and acknowledgment of this Agreement, or a counterpart
hereto, and such other documents as may be reasonably requested by the General

SECTION 9.1 RIGHT OF REDEMPTION.
(A) Subject to any restriction on the General Partner, which restriction may arise as a result of the REIT Charter, the laws governing the General Partner or otherwise (a "Redemption Restriction"), beginning on the Redemption Effective Date, during each Redemption Period each Redeeming Party shall have the right to require the Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the Partnership Units held by such Redeeming Party by providing the General Partner with a Redemption Notice. A Limited Partner may invoke its rights under this Article IX with respect to 100 Partnership Units or an integral multiple thereof or all of the Partnership Units held by such Limited Partner. Upon the General Partner's receipt of a Redemption Notice from a Redeeming Party, the Partnership shall be obligated (subject to the existence of any Redemption Restriction) to redeem the Partnership Units from such Redeeming Party (the "Redemption Obligation").
(B) Upon receipt of a Redemption Notice from a Redeeming Party, the General Partner shall either (i) cause the Partnership to redeem the Partnership Units tendered in the Redemption Notice, (ii) assume the Redemption Obligation, as set forth in Section 9.4, or (iii) provide written Notice to the Redeeming Party of each applicable Redemption Restriction.
(C) On and after May 14, 2002 at any time or from time to time, the Partnership may redeem all or such other number of Class B Units (any such redemption, a "Class B Redemption") at a cash redemption price per Class B Unit equal to that portion of the Capital Contribution of the Class B Limited Partner allocable to each such unit, plus all accumulated and unpaid Priority Return Amounts to the date of Class B Redemption (such price, the "Class B Redemption Price"). Upon any Class B Redemption, an amount equal to the product of the Class B Redemption Price and the number of Class B Units redeemed by the Partnership shall be distributed by the Partnership to the Class B Limited Partner.
(D) On and after June 6, 2007 at any time or from time to time, the Partnership may redeem all or such other number of Class C Units (any such redemption, a "Class C Redemption") at a cash redemption price per Class C Unit equal to that portion of the Capital Contribution of the Class C Limited Partner allocable to each such unit, plus all accumulated and unpaid Class C Priority Return Amounts to the date of Class C Redemption (such price, the "Class C Redemption Price"). Upon any Class C Redemption, an amount equal to the product of the Class C Redemption Price and the number of Class C Units redeemed by the Partnership shall be distributed by the Partnership to the Class C Limited Partner.
(E) On and after February 4, 2003 at any time or from time to time, the Partnership may redeem all or such other number of Class D Units (any such redemption, a "Class D Redemption") at a cash redemption price per Class D Unit equal to that portion of the Capital Contribution of the Class D Limited Partner allocable to each such unit, plus all accumulated and unpaid Class D Priority Return Amounts to the date of Class D Redemption (such price, the "Class D Redemption Price"). Upon any Class D Redemption, an amount equal to the product of the Class D Redemption Price and the number of Class D Units redeemed by the Partnership shall be distributed by the Partnership to the Class D Limited Partner. The Class D Redemption Price (other than the portion thereof consisting of accumulated and unpaid Class D Priority Return Amounts) is payable solely out of the sale proceeds of an issuance of capital stock of the General Partner. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence "capital stock" means any common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, interests, participations or
other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity interests or options to purchase any of the foregoing).
(F) On and after March 18, 2003 at any time or from time to time, the Partnership may redeem all or such other number of Class E Units (any such redemption, a "Class E Redemption") at a cash redemption price per Class E Unit equal to that portion of the Capital Contribution of the Class E Limited Partner allocable to each such unit, plus all accumulated and unpaid Class E Priority Return Amounts to the date of Class E Redemption (such price, the "Class E Redemption Price"). Upon any Class E Redemption, an amount equal to the product of the Class E Redemption Price and the number of Class E Units redeemed by the Partnership shall be distributed by the Partnership to the Class E Limited Partner. The Class E Redemption Price (other than the portion thereof consisting of accumulated and unpaid Class E Priority Return Amounts) is payable solely out of the sale proceeds of an issuance of capital stock of the General Partner. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence "capital stock" means any common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, interests, participations or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity interests or options to purchase any of the foregoing).
SECTION 9.2 TIMING OF REDEMPTION. The Redemption Obligation (or the obligation to provide Notice of an applicable Redemption Restriction, if one exists) shall mature on the date which is seven (7) business days after the receipt by the General Partner of a Redemption Notice from the Redeeming Party (the "Redemption Date").
SECTION 9.3 REDEMPTION PRICE. On or before the Redemption Date, the Partnership (or the General Partner if it elects pursuant to Section 9.4) shall deliver to the Redeeming Party, in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner either (i) a Share Payment or (ii) a Cash Payment. In order to enable the Partnership to effect a redemption by making a Share Payment pursuant to this Section 9.3, the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion may issue to the Partnership the number of REIT Shares required to make such Share Payment in exchange for the issuance to the General Partner of Partnership Units equal in number to the quotient of the number of REIT Shares issued and Conversion Factor.
SECTION 9.4 ASSUMPTION OF REDEMPTION OBLIGATION. Upon receipt of a Redemption Notice, the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right to assume the Redemption Obligation of the Partnership. In such case, the General Partner shall be substituted for the Partnership for all purposes of this Article IX and, upon acquisition of the Partnership Units tendered by the Redeeming Party pursuant to the Redemption Notice shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the owner of such Partnership Units. Such exchange transaction shall be treated for federal income tax purposes by the Partnership, the General Partner and the Redeeming Party as a sale by the Redeeming Party as seller to the General Partner as purchaser.
SECTION 9.5 FURTHER ASSURANCES; CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS. Each party to this Agreement agrees to execute any documents deemed reasonably necessary by the General Partner to evidence the issuance of any Share Payment to a Redeeming Party. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each holder of First Highland Units agrees that, if the General Partner shall elect to satisfy a Redemption Obligation with respect to First Highland Units by making a Share Payment, such Redemption Obligation shall mature on the date which is seven (7) business days after receipt by the Partnership and the General Partner of documents similar to the "Investor Materials" submitted in connection with the sale of the First Highland Properties to the Partnership and any other similar documents reasonably required by, and in form reasonably satisfactory to, the Partnership. Each Limited Partner, by executing this Agreement, shall be deemed to have represented to the General Partner and the Partnership that (i) its acquisition of its Partnership Interest on the date hereof is made as a principal for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to the resale or distribution of such Partnership Interest and (ii) if
it shall receive REIT Shares pursuant to this Article IX other than pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that its acquisition of such REIT Shares is made as a principal for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to the resale or distribution of such REIT Shares and agrees that such REIT Shares may bear a legend to the effect that such REIT Shares have not been so registered and may not be sold other than pursuant to such a registration statement or an exemption from the registration requirements of such Act.
SECTION 9.6 EFFECT OF REDEMPTION. Upon the satisfaction of the Redemption Obligation by the Partnership or the General Partner, as the case may be, the Redeeming Party shall have no further right to receive any Partnership distributions in respect of the Partnership Units so redeemed and shall be deemed to have represented to the Partnership and the General Partner that the Partnership Units tendered for redemption are not subject to any liens, claims or encumbrances. Upon a Class B Redemption by the Partnership, the Class B Limited Partner shall have no further right to receive any Partnership distributions or allocations in respect of the Class B Units so redeemed. Upon a Class C Redemption by the Partnership, the Class C Limited Partner shall have no further right to receive any Partnership distributions or allocations in respect of the Class C Units so redeemed. Upon a Class D Redemption by the Partnership, the Class D Limited Partner shall have no further right to receive any Partnership distributions in respect of the Class D Units so redeemed. Upon a Class E Redemption by the Partnership, the Class E Limited Partner shall have no further right to receive any Partnership distributions in respect of the Class E Units so redeemed.
SECTION 9.7 REGISTRATION RIGHTS. In the event a Limited Partner receives REIT Shares in connection with a redemption of Partnership Units originally issued to Initial Limited Partners on June 30, 1994 pursuant to this Article IX, such Limited Partner shall be entitled to have such REIT Shares registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement.
SECTION 10.1 TERM AND DISSOLUTION. The Partnership commenced as of November 23, 1993, and shall continue until December 31, 2092, at which time the Partnership shall dissolve or until dissolution occurs prior to that date for any one of the following reasons:
(A) An Involuntary Withdrawal or a voluntary withdrawal, even though in violation of this Agreement, of the General Partner unless, within ninety (90) days after such event of withdrawal all the remaining Partners agree in writing to the continuation of the Partnership and to the appointment of a Successor General Partner;
(B) Entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership under the Act; or
(C) The sale, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Partnership Assets.
SECTION 10.2 LIQUIDATION OF PARTNERSHIP ASSETS.
(A) Subject to Section 10.2(E), in the event of dissolution pursuant to Section 10.1, the Partnership shall continue solely for purposes of winding up the affairs of, achieving a final termination of, and satisfaction of the creditors of, the Partnership. The General Partner (or, if there is no General Partner remaining, any Person elected by a majority in interest of the Limited Partners (the "Liquidator")) shall be responsible for oversight of the winding up and dissolution of the Partnership. The Liquidator shall obtain a full accounting of the assets and
liabilities of the Partnership and such Partnership Assets shall be liquidated (including, at the discretion of the Liquidator, in exchange, in whole or in part, for REIT Shares) as promptly as the Liquidator is able to do so without any undue loss in value, with the proceeds therefrom applied and distributed in the following order:
(1) First, to the discharge of Partnership debts and liabilities to creditors other than Partners;
(2) Second, to the discharge of Partnership debts and liabilities to the Partners;
(3) Third, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, and allocations for all periods, to (i) the Class B Limited Partner in an amount equal to any unpaid Class B Priority Return Amounts, (ii) the Class C Limited Partner in an amount equal to any unpaid Class C Priority Return Amounts, (iii) the Class D Limited Partner in an amount equal to any unpaid Class D Priority Return Amounts, and (iv) the Class E Limited Partner in an amount equal to any unpaid Class E Priority Return Amounts, provided, that if the proceeds are inadequate to pay all of the unpaid Class B Priority Return Amounts, the unpaid Class C Priority Return Amounts, the unpaid Class D Priority Return Amounts, and the unpaid Class E Priority Return Amounts, such proceeds shall be distributed to the Class B Limited Partner, the Class C Limited Partner, the Class D Limited Partner and the Class E Limited Partner pro rata based on the unpaid Class B Priority Return Amounts, the unpaid Class C Priority Return Amounts, the unpaid Class D Priority Return Amounts, and the unpaid Class E Priority Return Amounts;
(4) The balance, if any, to the Partners in accordance with their positive Capital Accounts after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all periods.
(B) In accordance with Section 10.2(A), the Liquidator shall proceed without any unnecessary delay to sell and otherwise liquidate the Partnership Assets; provided, however, that if the Liquidator shall determine that an immediate sale of part or all of the Partnership Assets would cause undue loss to the Partners, the Liquidator may defer the liquidation except (i) to the extent provided by the Act or (ii) as may be necessary to satisfy the debts and liabilities of the Partnership to Persons other than the Partners.
(C) If, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Liquidator,
there are Partnership Assets that the Liquidator will not be able to liquidate,
or if the liquidation of such assets would result in undue loss to the Partners,
the Liquidator may distribute such Partnership Assets to the Partners in-kind,
in lieu of cash, as tenants-in-common in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.2(A). The foregoing notwithstanding, such in-kind distributions shall
only be made if in the Liquidator's good faith judgment that is in the best
interest of the Partners.
(D) Upon the complete liquidation and distribution of the Partnership Assets, the Partners shall cease to be Partners of the Partnership, and the Liquidator shall execute, acknowledge and cause to be filed all certificates and notices required by law to terminate the Partnership. Upon the dissolution of the Partnership pursuant to Section 10.1, the Liquidator shall cause to be prepared, and shall furnish to each Partner, a statement setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Partnership. Promptly following the complete liquidation and distribution of the Partnership Assets, the Liquidator shall furnish to each Partner a statement showing the manner in which the Partnership Assets were liquidated and distributed.
(E) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.2, in the event that the Partnership shall dissolve as a result of the expiration of the term provided for herein or as a result of the occurrence of an event of the type described in Section 10.1(B) or (C), then each Limited Partner shall be deemed to have delivered a Redemption Notice on the date of such dissolution. In connection with each such Redemption Notice, the General Partner shall have the option of either (i) complying with the redemption procedures contained in Article IX or (ii) at the request of any Limited Partner, delivering to such Limited Partner, Partnership property approximately equal
in value to the value of such Limited Partner's Partnership Units upon the assumption by such Limited Partner of such Limited Partner's proportionate share of the Partnership's liabilities and payment by such Limited Partner (or the Partnership) of any excess (or deficiency) of the value of the property so delivered over the value of such Limited Partner's Partnership Units. In lieu of requiring such Limited Partner to assume its proportionate share of Partnership liabilities, the General Partner may deliver to such Limited Partner unencumbered Partnership property approximately equal in value to the net value of such Limited Partner's Partnership Units.
SECTION 10.3 EFFECT OF TREASURY REGULATIONS.
(A) In the event the Partnership is "liquidated" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), distributions made to Partners pursuant to Section 10.2 shall be made within the time period provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2). If any Contributor Partner has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions (without regard to this Section 10.3(A)), distributions and allocations), each such Contributor Partner shall contribute to the capital of the Partnership an amount equal to its respective deficit balance, such obligation to be satisfied within ninety (90) days following the liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of this Article X hereof. Conversely, if any Partner other than a Contributor Partner has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions (without regard to this Section 10.3(A)), distributions and allocations), such Partner shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Partnership. Any deficit restoration obligation pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be for the benefit of creditors of the Partnership or any other Person to whom any debts, liabilities, or obligations are owed by (or who otherwise has any claim against) the Partnership or the general partner, in its capacity as General Partner of the Partnership. For purposes of computing each Contributor Partner's deficit balance in its Capital Account and its corresponding obligations to contribute additional capital to the Partnership, only items of income, gain and loss actually recognized shall be reflected.
(B) In the event the Partnership is "liquidated" within the
meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g) but there has been
no dissolution of the Partnership under Section 10.1 hereof, then the
Partnership Assets shall not be liquidated, the Partnership's liabilities shall
not be paid or discharged and the Partnership's affairs shall not be wound up.
In the event of such a liquidation there shall be deemed to have been a
distribution of Partnership Assets in kind to the Partners in accordance with
Section 10.2 followed by a recontribution of such Partnership Assets by the
Partners in the same proportions.
SECTION 10.4 TIME FOR WINDING-UP. Anything in this Article X notwithstanding, a reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding-up of the business and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of the Partnership Assets in order to minimize any potential for losses as a result of such process. During the period of winding-up, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall govern the rights and relationships of the Partners inter se.

amendment. In the case of a request for a written vote, the General Partner
shall be authorized to impose such reasonable time limitations for response, but
in no event less than ten (10) days, with the failure to respond being deemed a
vote consistent with the vote of the General Partner.

(B) Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Partners may be taken without a meeting if a written consent setting forth the action to be taken is signed by the Partners owning Percentage Interests required to vote in favor of such action, which consent may be evidenced in one or more instruments. Consents need not be solicited from any other Partner if the written consent of a sufficient number of Partners has been obtained to take the action for which such solicitation was required.

including without limitation the General Partner, to act for him by proxy on all

SECTION 12.1 TITLE TO PROPERTY. All property owned by the Partnership, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Partnership as an entity, and no Partner, individually, shall have any ownership of such property.

(a) Sealy may engage in activities and businesses unrelated to the real estate business;

(d) Sealy may engage in, except as provided in clauses (e) and (f) below, the strategic and significant business decisions (e.g., sale and refinance), but not day-to-day decision making, concerning those industrial/distribution/warehouse properties located in the Territory and identified in Exhibit "A" (the "Retained Properties"). In addition, Sealy shall have the right to participate in such other decisions and activities for the owners of the Retained Properties and/or in his individual capacity as is reasonable and necessary to protect Sealy from a substantial loss of his investment and/or any personal liability associated with the Retained Properties, (including the Transition Properties as defined below).
(e) Notwithstanding clause (d) above, certain of the Retained Properties identified on Exhibit "A" as "Transition Properties" (e.g., properties in a stage of planning and development that are not yet fully completed, leased and financed) are in transition and shall require Sealy to engage in day-to-day involvement in order to complete as necessary the construction, leasing and financing of the Transition Properties to stabilization. Employer agrees that, so long as Sealy continues to perform his duties hereunder and for no more than 18 months from the date hereof, Sealy may participate in such day-to-day activities in connection with development, construction, leasing and financing of the Transition Properties, but only as necessary for each of such properties to attain, and only until each of such properties attains, commercially reasonable "stabilization" (i.e., complete the construction, significant leasing and permanent financing) and as necessary to
discharge Sealy's obligations as a general partner and/or manager of entities that own such Transition Properties; provided, however, that Employer shall be reimbursed for the time and expense of Sealy to the extent of his activity relating to the Transition Properties in accordance with the term set forth on Exhibit "B" attached hereto. Regardless of the "stabilization" of any and all of the Transition Properties at such time, from and after the 18-month anniversary of this Agreement, Sealy shall no longer perform any day-to-day management activities in connection with the Transition Properties, but Sealy may undertake strategic and significant business decisions with respect to such properties for so long as they remain Retained Properties and may exercise his rights as provided in the last sentence of clause (d) above.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Sealy agrees that it may not and shall not engage in any decision making, management, operational or other activity in connection with (i) that certain real property located at 1103-1109 AFS Airport Business Park, Euless, Texas, or (ii) the Excluded Parcel (as defined in the Contribution Agreement). Sealy further agrees that it shall not have a direct or indirect ownership interest in either of such properties that either exceeds 49% or represents the largest direct or indirect ownership interest among all investors in such property.
Sealy shall be responsible to Employer to perform and/or oversee the following:
1. The day-to-day management and operation of real property assets located in the States of Louisiana and Texas (collectively, the "Territory") that are owned by Employer or by entities in which Employer holds an ownership interest ("Property Management");
2. The marketing for lease or sale of real property assets located in the Territory and owned or managed by Employer or entities in which Employer holds an ownership interest (together with Employer, the "Employer Entities") and the negotiation, documentation and consummation of lease and sale transactions involving real property assets located in the Territory and owned or managed by Employer Entities (the "Real Property Assets") [collectively, "Marketing"]; and
3. The acquisition of Real Property Assets, if and to the extent such acquisitions are approved by the Board (or the Board's Investment Committee, as the case may be) or the appropriate partners, officers or directors of any other applicable affiliate of Employer ("Acquisition").
2.02 Sealy will hold the title of Senior Regional Director ("SRD") of the Territory, and shall have primary responsibility for the conducting of Employer's business in the Territory.
2.03 If (a) a proposed Acquisition is presented to Employer by Sealy;
(b) Employer approves such Acquisition in accordance with its policies and
procedures then in effect; and (c) the
property to be acquired (the "New Property") is located outside the then-applicable geographic boundaries of the Territory, then, upon the closing of such Acquisition, the Territory shall automatically be expanded to include the city (or township, village or municipality, as the case may be) in which the New Property is located unless (i) the New Property is located in the existing territory of another SRD of Employer (it being understood and agreed that, except as is otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.03 with respect to the Territory, the senior officers of Employer shall have the sole discretion to establish the geographic boundaries of each SRD's respective territory); or (ii) the Board (or the Investment Committee, as the case may be), in the process of approving the acquisition of the New Property, specifically determines that the Territory shall not so expand. In the event that either (i) or (ii) above is applicable, then none of Sealy and the employees engaged by Employer in the Territory shall be responsible for the day-to-day management and operation of that particular New Property. Except as otherwise expressly provided above in this Section 2.03, any other expansion or contraction of the Territory shall be made by amendment to this Agreement.
2.04 Subject to: (a) with respect to those matters that may require
Board approval, the specific approval of the Board; (b) policies or guidelines
implemented by Employer out of its Chicago headquarters or by the Board; and (c)
any budget adopted by Employer, from time to time during the Term, with respect
to all or some portion of the Territory (a "Budget"), Sealy shall have the right
and obligation within the Territory to: (i) hire and fire employees (pursuant to
Employer's personnel policies, as such policies may be modified or amended from
time to time); (ii) establish, review, and revise the compensation of employees
engaged to perform services in the Territory (excepting only himself); (iii)
negotiate, document, and enter into contracts for Property Management and
Marketing; (iv) negotiate, document, and enter into contracts with such
suppliers of products and services as Sealy deems appropriate for the rendering
of Property Management and Marketing services to Employer; (v) purchase or lease
equipment for Employer for the performance and rendering of Property Management,
Marketing and Acquisition services, and tend to all matters relating thereto;
(vi) with the prior written approval of the Chief Operating Officer of Employer,
lease building space for occupancy by Employer for Employer's offices and for
such other reasonable functions as Sealy deems appropriate for the business of
Employer in the Territory; and (vii) negotiate, document, execute and perform
under leases on behalf of any Employer Entities, whether as landlord or
management/leasing agent, as the case may be ("Leases"). Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.04, if any expenditure
proposed to be made by Sealy pursuant to his duties to Employer (1) is not
contemplated or provided for in the relevant Budget and (2) exceeds $25,000, per
item or occasion, except with respect to leasing commissions and tenant
improvements as provided in Section 2.06(iv), in which case Section 2.06 shall
govern, Sealy shall refrain from making such expenditure until Sealy receives
the approval for such expenditure from any Vice President or more senior officer
based in the Chicago headquarters of Employer.
2.05 Without the prior approval of the Board or the Investment Committee, as the case may be (which, as in all cases requiring the approval or consent of the Board or Investment Committee under this Agreement, may be given or withheld in the Board's or the Investment Committee's sole discretion), Sealy shall not do any or all of the following:
1. Increase his compensation or extend the Term;
2. Purchase, or contract to purchase, any real property on behalf of Employer or any Employer Entities; or
3. Sell or refinance, or contract to sell or refinance, any Real Property Assets on behalf of Employer or any Employer Entities.
Sealy agrees that he shall promptly advise the Employer's Chief Investment Officer of the pendency of any acquisition or disposition of any real property on behalf of Employer or any Employer Entities, and shall follow the directions of the Chief Investment Officer with respect to the further pursuit of any such potential acquisition or disposition. If, at any time during the Term, however, Sealy seeks approval or direction from the Chief Investment Officer with respect to a particular acquisition or disposition, and the Chief Investment Officer is not available, then Sealy may seek approval or direction from Employer's Chief Operating Officer (the "COO"). If Sealy receives the approval of the Chief Investment Officer or the COO, as applicable, to pursue an acquisition or disposition, and Sealy desires that a formal purchase and sale contract be executed in connection therewith, then any one of the President, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer or Chief Investment Officer of Employer shall be the signatory to any such contract for an acquisition or disposition. Sealy acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, no acquisition or disposition may be consummated on behalf of the Employer without the approval of the Investment Committee or, in certain instances, the Board. As of the date of this Agreement, acquisitions or dispositions of real property on behalf of Employer require only the approval of the Investment Committee if the aggregate consideration required to be paid for such acquisition or disposition does not exceed $30,000,000. Currently, then, the Board must approve acquisitions or dispositions involving consideration in excess of $30,000,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.05, if the Board modifies its policies with respect to the matters provided in this Section 2.05, then Sealy shall abide by such modified policies to the extent such policies differ from what is provided above in this Section 2.05.
2.06 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, without the prior approval of the COO, or such other officer designated by the COO for such purpose, Sealy shall not enter into any Lease (i) with respect to premises exceeding 100,000 rentable square feet, or (ii) with annual fixed net base rent exceeding $500,000 for any year of the lease term, assuming the exercise of all options in the Lease, or (iii) with an initial term exceeding five (5) years, or with a full term, assuming the exercise of all options in the Lease, exceeding ten (10) years, or (iv) that requires the expenditure of $100,000 or more, in the aggregate, by Employer to both satisfy the obligations imposed on the landlord under that Lease to perform tenant improvements and pay any leasing commissions owed by Employer in connection with such Lease.
2.07 As an SRD, Sealy shall also have the authority to negotiate the terms and provisions of, and enter into, any third-party management contracts for the day-to-day leasing, operation and management of New Properties if and to the extent that, in the process of approving an Acquisition, the Investment Committee or the Board (if the Board's approval of the Acquisition is required) approve the engagement of a third-party manager for the applicable New Property. In such an event, Sealy must engage the third-party manager in accordance with any additional terms, with respect to such third-party management arrangement, required by the Investment Committee and the Board (if the Board's approval of the Acquisition is required).
ARTICLE III - COMPENSATION
3.01 Sealy shall receive an aggregate annual base salary ("Annual Salary") at the rate of $150,000 per annum, beginning January 1, 1998 (and at the rate of $130,000 per annum for 1997). The Annual Salary for calendar year 1997 shall be prorated, based on the period of time Sealy is employed during 1997. Following 1997, Sealy shall receive a guaranteed minimum annual salary, based on the duration of his employment during any year, equal to no less than the Annual Salary payable to all other SRDs engaged by Employer, from time to time; and such Annual Salary shall be payable in twenty-four (24) equal installments on the fifteenth day and last day of each month during the Term (a "Payment Date"); provided, however, that the Annual Salary shall be no less than $150,000 during 1998. If any Payment Date falls on other than a normal business day, the salary payment due on such Payment Date shall instead be payable on the last normal business day preceding such Payment Date.
3.02 In addition to the Annual Salary, Sealy shall also be entitled to participate in all incentive, bonus and stock option programs offered by Employer from time to time to the SRDs, as such may be approved or implemented from time to time by the Compensation Committee of the Board. Sealy's right to participate in, and to receive compensation under, such programs shall in no event be on lesser terms or in lesser amounts than those offered to the SRDs; provided, however, that incentive or bonus arrangements (a) for which Sealy and the SRDs are eligible; (b) that are based upon the achievement or surpassing of performance goals established by Employer, and (c) that are based upon specified commercial criteria made known to Sealy and the SRDs in advance, may vary among the different regions of Employer based upon relative regional performance.
3.03 Employer shall be entitled to withhold from those amounts payable to Sealy from time to time under this Agreement any and all federal, state or local withholding or other taxes or charges which Employer is, from time to time, required (by applicable law, statute, ordinance or regulation) to withhold. Employer shall be entitled to rely upon the opinion of its legal counsel with regard to any question concerning the amount or requirement of any such withholding.
ARTICLE IV - SEALY'S BENEFITS
4.01 Employer, at Employer's cost, will provide Sealy with medical/hospitalization/ major medical insurance coverage, including dental benefits, in the same amounts, pursuant to the same terms, and subject to the same deductible, as is provided pursuant to the insurance coverage made available, from time to time, to the SRDs.
4.02 Employer, at Employer's cost, will provide Sealy with, and keep in effect during the Term, a term life insurance policy which Employer will purchase from an insurer satisfactory to Sealy and providing coverage in an amount equal to the amount of such term life insurance provided to the SRDs. Sealy shall have the right to designate such individual or other entity as he wishes as the owner of such life insurance policy, and shall have the power to designate and change, from time-to-time, the beneficiary under such insurance policy.
4.03 Employer, at Employer's cost, will provide Sealy with a disability income insurance policy that will (i) provide Sealy with income per year equal to that amount of annual income provided to the SRDs under their respective disability insurance policies, (ii) have a waiting period of not greater than three (3) months from the date of sickness, injury or other disability prior to any disability payment, (iii) provide for lifetime benefits, and (iv) contain a waiver of premium clause. At Sealy's option, he may elect to pay the annual premiums for such disability insurance himself, in which case his Annual Salary will be increased by the amount equal to such annual premium. The foregoing disability income insurance policy will define disability in terms of the functions which Sealy is required to perform pursuant to this Agreement, and should Sealy not be able to perform such functions, he shall be deemed disabled under such policy.
4.04 Sealy shall be entitled to vacation leave of five (5) weeks during each calendar year, beginning January 1, 1998, with full pay (determined on a pro rata basis, based on the then-applicable Annual Salary). The time for vacation shall be chosen by Sealy and must be taken within fifteen (15) months after the start of the calendar year with respect to which such vacation leave is made available. Sealy's right to be paid in lieu of any vacation leave not timely taken shall be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board and shall be consistent with the policy established for the SRDs.
4.05 Sealy shall be entitled to the following paid holidays per year (if falling on a day other than a Saturday or Sunday): New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.
4.06 Sealy shall be entitled to an aggregate of ten (10) days per calendar year, including 1997, as sick and/or personal leave days with full pay (determined on a pro rata basis, based on the then-applicable Annual Salary). Sick and/or personal leave days may be accumulated up to a total of twenty (20) days.
4.07 If Sealy becomes disabled during the Term for any reason that prevents him from fully performing his duties under this Agreement and, as a result, he would be entitled, but for any waiting period, to disability payments under the disability insurance policy described above, Employer agrees to continue his salary (determined on a pro rata basis, based on the then-applicable Annual Salary) during the period of his disability until such time as benefits due under the disability income insurance policy (provided pursuant to Section 4.03 above), begin to accrue, but in no event beyond the end of the Term.
4.08 In addition to the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that, in order to properly perform his duties, Sealy must have the use of a mobile telephone. Employer agrees to pay directly, or to reimburse Sealy for, any and all costs associated with the purchase, installation, activation, and business use of such mobile telephone (in the ordinary course of Sealy's performance of his duties under this Agreement).
4.09 Executive shall receive an automobile allowance determined in accordance with an annual budget submitted to, and approved by, Employer from time to time with respect to the operation of the Territory during the applicable calendar year (the "Auto Allowance"), which Auto Allowance shall be paid in accordance with Employer's policy for payment of comparable
allowances. Employer shall have no obligation to make any payments of the Auto Allowance from and after the date on which Executive's employment with Employer is terminated in accordance with this Agreement.
ARTICLE V - REIMBURSEMENT OF SEALY'S EXPENSES
5.01 Sealy is authorized to incur reasonable business expenses for promoting the business of Employer, including expenditures for entertainment, gifts, and travel. Employer will reimburse Sealy in accordance with its normal expense-reimbursement procedure for all business expenses reasonably incurred, provided that Sealy presents to Employer both of the following:
(a) A monthly expense report in which Sealy records:
(i) the amount of each expenditure;
(ii) the date, place, and designation of the type of entertainment, travel, or other expenses or the date and description of any gift given by Sealy for a business purpose;
(iii) the business purpose for each expenditure; and
(iv) the name, occupation, address, and other relevant information of each person who is entertained or given a gift sufficient to establish the business relationship to Employer.
(b) Documentary evidence (such as receipts or paid bills) providing sufficient information to establish the amount, date, place, and essential character of each business expenditure of $75.00 or more.
ARTICLE VI - TERMINATION
6.01 Employer may terminate this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, under the following circumstances:
(a) The occurrence of a material breach of this Agreement by Sealy that Sealy does not cure, whether or not such breach is capable of being cured, within ten (10) days after Employer delivers to Sealy written notice of the alleged breach ("Default Notice"). A termination pursuant to this paragraph shall take effect upon the expiration of the relevant cure period, if the subject breach has not been cured.
(b) For "cause," which, for purposes of this Agreement, shall include, without limitation, (i) the fraudulent or criminal conduct of Sealy adversely affecting Employer, (ii) alcoholism of, or illegal substance abuse by, Sealy, (iii) any willful, reckless, or grossly negligent act, or failure to act, of Sealy, or any breach of the fiduciary duty owed by Sealy to Employer, or (iv) any dishonesty, disclosure of Confidential Information (as hereinafter
defined) or, except as provided above or in the Contribution Agreement in respect of Permitted Activities and Businesses, aiding a competitor of Employer. A termination "for cause" shall take effect immediately upon written notice to Sealy from Employer;
(c) Sealy suffering a long-term disability. A long-term
disability shall be defined as Sealy's inability (based on the standard
for honoring a claim established under the disability insurance policy
procured for Sealy pursuant to this Agreement), due to illness or
injury (including alcoholism or illegal substance abuse), to perform
his duties as established in Article II above, for a period of three
(3) consecutive months. A termination pursuant to this paragraph shall
take effect immediately upon written notice to Sealy from Employer
after the expiration of such three-month period;
(d) Sealy's death, in which case the Agreement shall terminate immediately; and
(e) The occurrence of a breach of this Agreement for which written notice is sent to Sealy on three or more occasions during any 12-month period of the Term (regardless of whether or not such breaches are cured in a timely fashion), in which case this Agreement shall terminate immediately upon the third of such written notices to Sealy from Employer, except as otherwise provided in such third written notice.
In the event Employer exercises its right of termination for reasons other than any of those specified for in paragraphs (a) through (e) above (such reasons other than those specified by (a) through (e) being referred to as "Unstated Reasons"), such termination shall be effective thirty (30) days after Employer's delivery of its written notice of such termination; provided, however, from and after the effective date of a termination for any Unstated Reason, and continuing for a period of three (3) months, or through the Expiration Date, whichever occurs first, Employer shall continue to pay to Sealy, the benefits to which he would have been entitled (under the express terms of this Agreement, as of the date of such termination), but for the accelerated termination hereof. In addition, on the first day of each of the 12 calendar months immediately following the effective date of a termination for any Unstated Reason (the "Termination Date"), regardless of the Expiration Date, Employer shall pay to Sealy, at the rate of one-twelfth of the following amounts on each of such 12 payment dates: (i) the Annual Salary being paid to Sealy as of the Termination Date and (ii) the most recent annual bonus paid to Sealy or, if, as of the Termination Date, Sealy will not have worked for Employer long enough to qualify for an annual bonus, the average of the most recent annual bonuses paid to all senior regional directors of Employer (the foregoing payments in the aggregate shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Severance Payment").
6.02 Sealy shall have no right to terminate this Agreement, except (a) as provided in Sections 6.06 and 6.07 below, and (b) in the event of the occurrence of a breach of this Agreement by Employer, which Employer does not cure within ten days after delivery of Sealy's written notice of such alleged breach.
6.03 Termination of this Agreement by Employer or by Sealy pursuant to any of the provisions of this Article VI shall not prejudice any other remedy to which the terminating party may be entitled as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the non-terminating party, whether at
law, in equity, or under this Agreement; provided, however, and notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary or in any other agreement related to the Contribution Agreement, that if Sealy is terminated due to a breach of his obligations in Section 2.01(f), Employer's remedy hereunder shall be limited to termination of this Agreement only (although Employer may seek to enjoin such breach without terminating this Agreement).
6.04 In the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, in addition to such other payments required to be paid to Sealy as expressly provided herein, Sealy shall be entitled to receive a prorated portion of his Annual Salary through the effective date of such termination. In addition, in the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, Sealy shall be entitled to reimbursement of all business expenses incurred by him (pursuant to Section 5.01) prior to the effective date of termination that would otherwise be reimbursable hereunder. Further, Sealy shall also be entitled to the remuneration provided in Sections 6.01, 6.06 and 6.07.
6.05 Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Sealy shall forthwith return and deliver to Employer, and shall not retain any originals or copies of, any books, papers, price lists or customer contracts, written proposals of Employer or prospective customers or tenants, customer/tenant lists, rent rolls, leases, files, books of account, notebooks and other documents and data relating to the performance of services rendered by Sealy hereunder, except for those materials relating to the Retained Properties or in Sealy's possession immediately prior to the commencement of the Term (collectively, "Employer's Materials"), all of which Employer Materials are hereby deemed to constitute the property of Employer.
6.06 Constructive Termination. If, at any time during the Term, except in connection with a termination pursuant to Section 6.01(a), (b) or (e) above, Sealy is Constructively Discharged (as hereinafter defined), then Sealy shall have the right, by written notice to the Employer, given within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the effective date of such Constructive Discharge, to terminate his services hereunder (the "Termination Notice"), effective as of the date that is thirty (30) days after the date on which such Termination Notice is delivered, and Sealy shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement other than as provided in this Section 6.06 and in Article VII. For purposes of this Agreement, Sealy shall be deemed to have been "Constructively Discharged" upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
(i) Sealy is not re-elected to, or is otherwise removed from, his position as the SRD in the Territory with the Employer other than as a result of (x) Sealy's election or appointment to positions of equal or superior scope and responsibility (an "Alternative Position") or (y) Sealy's breach of, or default under, the terms of this Agreement; or
(ii) Employer fails to vest Sealy with the powers, authority and support services normally attendant, from time to time, to the other SRDs, or with those attendant to the Alternative Position that may be applicable from time to time, as the case may be; or
(iii) The Employer notifies Sealy, in writing, that Sealy's
employment will be terminated (other than pursuant to Section 6.01(a),
(b) or (e) above) or materially and adversely modified in the future,
or that Sealy will be Constructively Discharged in the future.
If Sealy is Constructively Discharged and timely delivers a Termination Notice, then from and after the effective date of a termination pursuant to a Termination Notice, Employer shall pay to Sealy an amount equal to the Severance Payment, as though such termination was a termination for Unstated Reasons.
6.07 Termination Upon Change of Control.
(a) In the event of a Change in Control (as defined below) of the Employer and the termination of Sealy's employment by Sealy or by the Employer under either (i) or (ii) below, Sealy shall be entitled to receive, from and after the effective date of a termination pursuant to a Change in Control, the Severance Payment, as though such termination was a termination for Unstated Reasons. The Severance Payment shall not be offset against or diminish any other compensation or benefits accrued as of the effective date of termination. The following shall constitute termination under this Section 6.07:
(i) Sealy terminates his employment under this Agreement pursuant to a written notice to that effect delivered to the Board within six (6) months after the occurrence of the Change in Control; or
(ii) Sealy's employment is terminated, including Constructively Discharged, by the Employer or its successor either in contemplation of or within two (2) years after the Change in Control, other than pursuant to Section 6.01(a), (b) or (e) above.
(b) For purposes of this paragraph, the term "Change in Control" shall mean the following:
(i) The consummation of the acquisition by any person [as such term is defined in Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act")] of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act) of forty percent (40%) or more of the combined voting power embodied in the then-outstanding voting securities of the Employer; or
(ii) Approval by the stockholders of the Employer of: (1) a merger or consolidation of the Employer, if the stockholders of the Employer immediately before such merger or consolidation do not, as a result of such merger or consolidation, own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of the entity resulting from such merger or consolidation in substantially the same proportion as was represented by their ownership of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Employer outstanding immediately before such merger or consolidation; or (2) a complete or substantial liquidation or dissolution, or an agreement for the sale or other disposition, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Employer.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because forty percent (40%) or more of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities is acquired by: (x) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under one or more
employee benefit plans maintained for employees of the entity; or (y) any corporation or other entity which, immediately prior to such acquisition, is owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Employer in the same proportion as their ownership of stock in the Employer immediately prior to such acquisition.
ARTICLE VII - NONCOMPETITION AND CONFIDENTIALITY
7.01 In consideration of (i) this Agreement; (ii) the payment of the amounts described herein; (iii) the terms and provisions of the Contribution Agreement; and (iv) the benefits afforded Sealy by virtue of Employer's national support staff, brokerage relationships, databases and reputation; Sealy hereby covenants and agrees that: (a) during the period of his employment with Employer, except in respect of the Permitted Activities and Businesses, and then only as provided in Section 2.01, he shall not, and he shall cause any entity in which he has a direct or indirect, non-passive ownership interest (collectively, the "Non-Compete Parties") to not, directly or indirectly, within those counties in the State of Texas or those parishes in the State of Louisiana set forth on Exhibit "C" attached hereto (collectively and subject to the penultimate sentence of this Section 7.01, the "Non-Compete Area"), in any manner whatsoever: (i) own, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or otherwise deal with, in any manner (including, without limitation, independently or as an employee), any entity involved in the development, management, leasing or operation of other projects or properties used, or contemplated to be used, for industrial/warehouse/distribution purposes (any such entity, a "Competitor"), or (ii) solicit, initiate contact with, negotiate with, hold discussions with or approach any customer or tenant, or any potential customer or tenant, for the benefit of or on behalf of any Competitor; and (b) subject to the last sentence of this Section 7.01, during the period of Sealy's employment with Employer and until the second anniversary of his termination of employment with Employer, Sealy shall not, and he shall cause each Non-Compete Party to not, initiate contact with or solicit any of the current tenants ("Tenants") or any future tenant at any of the Projects (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) ["New Tenants"] with respect to alternative locations or opportunities concerning industrial/distribution/warehouse real property for such Tenants or New Tenants, whether for purposes of leasing, selling or build-to-suit (an "Alternative Site"). In the event, during the period of Sealy's employment with Employer, any Non-Compete Party is contacted by any of the Tenants or New Tenants concerning an Alternative Site without having solicited or initiated contact, Sealy shall, and shall cause any other applicable Non-Compete Party to, immediately notify Employer of such fact and shall refer such Tenant or New Tenant to Employer. Sealy further agrees that, in the event of breach of any or all of the covenants contained in this Section 7.1, Employer shall be entitled to all available remedies against any or all of the Non-Compete Parties, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, injunctive relief, all of which remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive. Sealy hereby acknowledges that Employer performs one or more of the following business activities (the "Business Activities") within the parishes and counties set forth in Exhibit "C": (i) managing and operating industrial/warehouse/distribution real property assets; (ii) soliciting, meeting and negotiating with prospective tenants for occupancy in industrial/warehouse/distribution real property assets of Employer; and (iii) investigating potential acquisitions and developments of industrial/warehouse/distribution real property assets. The parties agree that, upon receipt of notice by Sealy from time to time from Employer indicating an expansion of the Business Activities to additional parish(es) or county(ies), as the case may be, the
Non-Compete Area shall, upon receipt of such notice by Sealy, be expanded
to include such parish(es) and county(ies), as the case may be, reflected
in such notice, and Sealy shall thereupon treat such additional parish(es)
and county(ies) as part of the Non-Compete Area for purposes of this
Section 7.01. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Sealy is no
longer employed by Employer and the Non-Compete Period has not otherwise

All records, files, documents and other materials or copies thereof relating to Employer's business that Sealy prepares, has access to, or utilizes (including, but not limited to, the Employer Materials), shall be and remain the sole property of Employer; and shall be promptly returned to Employer upon termination of Sealy's employment hereunder. Subject to Section 7.01, during the term of this Agreement, Sealy agrees to abide by Employer's reasonable policies, as in effect from time to time and applicable to the SRDs, respecting avoidance of interests conflicting with those of Employer.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
This Agreement ("Agreement") is made as of this 10th day of December, 1997 by and between DONALD C. THOMPSON (hereinafter "Thompson") and FIRST INDUSTRIAL REALTY TRUST, INC., a Maryland corporation (hereinafter "Employer"). Capitalized terms contained herein and otherwise undefined shall have the respective meanings given to each of them in that certain Contribution Agreement, dated as of December 9, 1997, by and among FR Acquisitions, Inc. and the other parties thereto (the "Contribution Agreement").
The parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I - TERM OF EMPLOYMENT
1.01 Employer hereby employs Thompson and Thompson hereby accepts employment by Employer commencing on the date hereof and pursuant to the terms hereof.
1.02 The term of this Agreement (the "Term") shall end at 12:01 a.m. Chicago time on the third anniversary of the date hereof (the "Expiration Date"), except as otherwise provided herein.
ARTICLE II - DUTIES AND POWERS OF THOMPSON
2.01 Except as may be otherwise approved by the Board of Directors of Employer (the "Board") or as otherwise expressly provided herein, Thompson shall devote his full-time, diligent and good faith efforts to the operation of the business of Employer, as more fully detailed below, at all times in accordance with any and all written rules and policies of Employer. Additionally during the Term, except as may otherwise be approved by the Board, Employer shall be entitled to the exclusive benefits of Thompson's knowledge, experience, business contacts and opportunities relating to the business of Employer.
Thompson shall be responsible to Employer to perform and/or oversee the following:
1. The day-to-day management and operation of real property assets located in Tampa, Orlando and Southwest Florida (collectively, the "Territory"), owned by Employer or by entities in which Employer holds an ownership interest ("Property Management");
2. The marketing for lease or sale of real property assets located
in the Territory and owned or managed by Employer or entities in which
Employer holds an ownership interest (together with Employer, the "Employer
Entities") and the negotiation, documentation and consummation of lease and
sale transactions involving real property assets located in the Territory and
owned or managed by Employer Entities (the "Real Property Assets")
[collectively, "Marketing"]; and
3. The acquisition of Real Property Assets, if and to the extent such acquisitions are approved by the Board (or the Board's Investment Committee, as the case may be) or the appropriate partners, officers or directors of any other applicable affiliate of Employer ("Acquisition").
2.02 Thompson will hold the title of Senior Regional Director ("SRD") of the Territory, and shall have primary responsibility for the conducting of Employer's business in the Territory. The Territory's Regional Headquarters will be located initially in Tampa, Florida.
2.03 If (a) a proposed Acquisition is presented to Employer by Thompson;
(b) Employer approves such Acquisition in accordance with its policies and
procedures then in effect; and (c) the property to be acquired (the "New
Property") is located outside the then-applicable geographic boundaries of the
Territory, then, upon the closing of such Acquisition, the Territory shall
automatically be expanded to include the city (or township, village or
municipality, as the case may be) in which the New Property is located unless
(i) the New Property is located in the existing territory of another SRD of
Employer (it being understood and agreed that, except as is otherwise expressly
provided in this Section 2.03 with respect to the Territory, the senior
officers of Employer shall have the sole discretion to establish the geographic
boundaries of each SRD's respective territory); or (ii) the Board (or the
Investment Committee, as the case may be), in the process of approving the
acquisition of the New Property, specifically determines that the Territory
shall not so expand. In the event that either (i) or (ii) above is applicable,
then none of Thompson and the employees engaged by Employer in the Territory
shall be responsible for the day-to-day management and operation of that
particular New Property. Except as otherwise expressly provided above in this
Section 2.03, any other expansion or contraction of the Territory shall be made
by amendment to this Agreement.
2.04 Subject to: (a) with respect to those matters that may require Board
approval, the specific approval of the Board; (b) policies or guidelines
implemented by Employer out of its Chicago headquarters or by the Board; and
(c) any budget adopted by Employer, from time to time during the Term, with
respect to all or some portion of the Territory (a "Budget"), Thompson shall
have the right and obligation within the Territory to: (i) hire and fire
employees (pursuant to Employer's personnel policies, as such policies may be
modified or amended from time to time); (ii) establish, review, and revise the
compensation of employees engaged to perform services in the Territory
(excepting only himself); (iii) negotiate, document, and enter into contracts
for Property Management and Marketing; (iv) negotiate, document, and enter into
contracts with such suppliers of products and services as Thompson deems
appropriate for the rendering of Property Management and Marketing services to
Employer; (v) purchase or lease equipment for Employer for the performance and
rendering of Property Management, Marketing and Acquisition services, and tend
to all matters relating thereto; (vi) with the prior written approval of the
Chief Operating Officer of Employer (the "COO;" provided, however, that the COO
may from time to time designate another officer of Employer for purposes of
providing approvals to Thompson and/or to whom Thompson shall be obligated to
report and any references to COO contained herein shall be deemed to include
any such officer from time to time designated by the COO), lease building space
for occupancy by Employer for Employer's offices and for such other reasonable
functions as Thompson deems appropriate for the business of Employer in the
Territory; and (vii) negotiate, document, execute and perform under leases on
behalf of any Employer Entities, whether as landlord or management/leasing
agent, as the case may be ("Leases"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 2.04, if any expenditure proposed to be made by
Thompson pursuant to his duties to Employer (1) is not contemplated or provided
for in the relevant Budget and (2) exceeds $25,000, per item or occasion,
except with respect to leasing commissions and tenant improvements as provided
in Section 2.06(iv), in which case Section 2.06
shall govern, Thompson shall refrain from making such expenditure until Thompson receives the approval for such expenditure from any Vice President or more senior officer based in the Chicago headquarters of Employer.
2.05 Without the prior approval of the Board or the Investment Committee, as the case may be (which, as in all cases requiring the approval or consent of the Board or Investment Committee under this Agreement, may be given or withheld in the Board's or the Investment Committee's sole discretion), Thompson shall not do any or all of the following:
1. Increase his compensation or extend the Term;
2. Purchase, or contract to purchase, any real property on behalf of Employer or any Employer Entities; or
3. Sell or refinance, or contract to sell or refinance, any Real Property Assets on behalf of Employer or any Employer Entities.
Thompson agrees that he shall promptly advise the Employer's Chief Investment
Officer of the pendency of any acquisition or disposition of any real property
on behalf of Employer or any Employer Entities, and shall follow the directions
of the Chief Investment Officer (the "CIO") with respect to the further pursuit
of any such potential acquisition or disposition. If, at any time during the
Term, however, Thompson seeks approval or direction from the CIO with respect
to a particular acquisition or disposition, and the CIO is not available, then
Thompson may seek approval or direction from Employer's COO. If Thompson
receives the approval of the CIO or the COO, as applicable, to pursue an
acquisition or disposition, and Thompson desires that a formal purchase and
sale contract be executed in connection therewith, then any one of the
President, COO, Chief Financial Officer or the CIO of Employer shall be the
signatory to any such contract for an acquisition or disposition. Thompson
acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, no acquisition or
disposition may be consummated on behalf of the Employer without the approval
of the Investment Committee or, in certain instances, the Board. As of the
date of this Agreement, acquisitions or dispositions of real property on behalf
of Employer require only the approval of the Investment Committee if the
aggregate consideration required to be paid for such acquisition or disposition
does not exceed $30,000,000. Currently, then, the Board must approve
acquisitions or dispositions involving consideration in excess of $30,000,000.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.05, if the
Board modifies its policies with respect to the matters provided in this
Section 2.05, then Thompson shall abide by such modified policies to the extent
such policies differ from what is provided above in this Section 2.05.
2.06 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, without the prior approval of the COO, or such other officer designated by the COO for such purpose, Thompson shall not enter into any Lease (i) with respect to premises exceeding 100,000 rentable square feet, or (ii) with annual fixed net base rent exceeding $500,000 for any year of the lease term, assuming the exercise of all options in the Lease, or (iii) with an initial term exceeding five (5) years, or with a full term, assuming the exercise of all options in the Lease, exceeding ten (10) years, or (iv) that requires the expenditure of $100,000 or more, in the aggregate, by Employer to both satisfy the
obligations imposed on the landlord under that Lease to perform tenant improvements and pay any leasing commissions owed by Employer in connection with such Lease.
2.07 As an SRD, Thompson shall also have the authority to negotiate the terms and provisions of, and enter into, any third-party management contracts for the day-to-day leasing, operation and management of New Properties if and to the extent that, in the process of approving an Acquisition, the Investment Committee or the Board (if the Board's approval of the Acquisition is required) approve the engagement of a third-party manager for the applicable New Property. In such an event, Thompson must engage the third-party manager in accordance with any additional terms, with respect to such third-party management arrangement, required by the Investment Committee and the Board (if the Board's approval of the Acquisition is required).
ARTICLE III - COMPENSATION
3.01 Thompson shall receive a guaranteed minimum annual salary ("Annual Salary"), based on the duration of his employment during any year, equal to the Annual Salary payable to all other SRDs engaged by Employer, from time to time; and such Annual Salary shall be payable in twenty-four (24) equal installments on the fifteenth day and last day of each month during the Term (a "Payment Date"). If any Payment Date falls on other than a normal business day, the salary payment due on such Payment Date shall instead be payable on the last normal business day preceding such Payment Date.
3.02 In addition to the Annual Salary, Thompson shall also be entitled to participate in all incentive, bonus and stock option programs offered by Employer from time to time to the SRDs, as such may be approved or implemented from time to time by the Compensation Committee of the Board. Thompson's right to participate in, and to receive compensation under, such programs shall in no event be on lesser terms or in lesser amounts than those offered to the SRDs; provided, however, that incentive or bonus arrangements (a) for which Thompson and the SRDs are eligible; (b) that are based upon the achievement or surpassing of performance goals established by Employer, and (c) that are based upon specified commercial criteria made known to Thompson and the SRDs in advance, may vary among the different regions of Employer based upon relative regional performance.
3.03 Employer shall be entitled to withhold from those amounts payable to Thompson from time to time under this Agreement any and all federal, state or local withholding or other taxes or charges which Employer is, from time to time, required (by applicable law, statute, ordinance or regulation) to withhold. Employer shall be entitled to rely upon the opinion of its legal counsel with regard to any question concerning the amount or requirement of any such withholding.
ARTICLE IV - THOMPSON'S BENEFITS AND BONUSES
4.01 Employer will provide Thompson with medical/hospitalization/major medical insurance coverage, including dental benefits, in the same amounts, pursuant to the same terms, and subject to the same deductible, as is provided pursuant to the insurance coverage made available, from time to time, to the SRDs.
4.02 Employer will provide Thompson with, and keep in effect during the Term, a term life insurance policy which Employer will purchase from an insurer satisfactory to Thompson and providing coverage in an amount equal to the amount of such term life insurance provided to the SRDs. Thompson shall have the right to designate such individual or other entity as he wishes as the owner of such life insurance policy, and shall have the power to designate and change, from time-to-time, the beneficiary under such insurance policy.
4.03 Employer will provide Thompson with a disability income insurance policy that will (i) provide Thompson with income per year equal to that amount of annual income provided to the SRDs under their respective disability insurance policies, (ii) have a waiting period of not greater than three (3) months from the date of sickness, injury or other disability prior to any disability payment, (iii) provide for lifetime benefits, and (iv) contain a waiver of premium clause. At Thompson's option, he may elect to pay the annual premiums for such disability insurance himself, in which case his Annual Salary will be increased by the amount equal to such annual premium. The foregoing disability income insurance policy will define disability in terms of the functions which Thompson is required to perform pursuant to this Agreement, and should Thompson not be able to perform such functions, he shall be deemed disabled under such policy.
4.04 Thompson shall be entitled to vacation leave of four (4) weeks during each calendar year, beginning January 1, 1998, with full pay (determined on a pro rata basis, based on the then-applicable Annual Salary). The time for vacation shall be chosen by Thompson and must be taken within fifteen (15) months after the start of the calendar year with respect to which such vacation leave is made available. Thompson's right to be paid in lieu of any vacation leave not timely taken shall be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board and shall be consistent with the policy established for the SRDs.
4.05 Thompson shall be entitled to the following paid holidays per year (if falling on a day other than a Saturday or Sunday): New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.
4.06 Thompson shall be entitled to ten (10) days per calendar year, beginning January 1, 1997, as sick or personal leave days with full pay (determined on a pro rata basis, based on the then-applicable Annual Salary). Sick or personal leave may be accumulated up to a total of twenty (20) days.
4.07 If Thompson becomes disabled during the Term for any reason that prevents him from fully performing his duties under this Agreement and, as a result, he would be entitled, but for any waiting period, to disability payments under the disability insurance policy described above, Employer agrees to continue his salary (determined on a pro rata basis, based on the then-applicable Annual Salary) during the period of his disability until such time as benefits due under the disability income insurance policy (provided pursuant to Section 4.03 above), begin to accrue, but in no event beyond the end of the Term.
ARTICLE V - REIMBURSEMENT OF THOMPSON'S EXPENSES
5.01 Thompson is authorized to incur reasonable business expenses for promoting the business of Employer, including expenditures for entertainment, gifts, and travel. Employer will reimburse Thompson in accordance with its normal expense-reimbursement procedure for all business expenses reasonably incurred, provided that Thompson presents to Employer both of the following:
(a) A monthly expense report in which Thompson records:
(i) the amount of each expenditure;
(ii) the date, place, and designation of the type of entertainment, travel, or other expenses or the date and description of any gift given by Thompson for a business purpose;
(iii) the business purpose for each expenditure; and
(iv) the name, occupation, address, and other relevant information of each person who is entertained or given a gift sufficient to establish the business relationship to Employer.
(b) Documentary evidence (such as receipts or paid bills) providing sufficient information to establish the amount, date, place, and essential character of each business expenditure of $75.00 or more.
5.02 Thompson shall receive an automobile allowance determined in
accordance with the Budget for the Territory during the applicable calendar
year (the "Auto Allowance"), which Auto Allowance shall be paid in accordance
with Employer's policy for payment of comparable allowances. Employer shall
have no obligation to make any payments of the Auto Allowance from and after
the date on which Thompson's employment with Employer is terminated pursuant to
Section 6. In addition to the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that, in
order to properly perform his duties, Thompson must have the use of a mobile
telephone. Employer agrees to pay directly, or to reimburse Thompson for, any
and all costs associated with the purchase, installation, activation, and
business use of such mobile telephone (in the ordinary course of Thompson's
performance of his duties under this Agreement).
ARTICLE VI - TERMINATION
6.01 Employer may terminate this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, under the following circumstances:
(a) The occurrence of a breach of this Agreement by Thompson (including, but not limited to, excessive absence) that Thompson does not cure within ten (10) days after Employer delivers to Thompson written notice of the alleged breach ("Default Notice"). A termination pursuant to this paragraph shall take effect upon the expiration of the relevant cure period, if the subject breach has not been cured.
(b) For "cause," which, for purposes of this Agreement, shall include, without limitation, (i) the fraudulent or criminal conduct of Thompson adversely affecting Employer, (ii) alcoholism of, or illegal substance abuse by, Thompson, (iii) any willful, reckless, or grossly negligent act, or failure to act, of Thompson, (iv) any breach of the fiduciary duty owed by Thompson to Employer, any dishonesty, disclosure of Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined), a breach of Article VII hereof, or (v) any attempted election to terminate this Agreement. A termination "for cause" shall take effect immediately upon written notice to Thompson from Employer;
(c) Thompson suffering a long-term disability. A long-term disability shall be defined as Thompson's inability (based on the standard for honoring a claim established under the disability insurance policy procured for Thompson pursuant to this Agreement), due to illness or injury (including alcoholism or illegal substance abuse), to perform his duties as established in Article II above, for a period of three (3) consecutive months. A termination pursuant to this paragraph shall take effect immediately upon written notice to Thompson from Employer after the expiration of such three-month period;
(d) Thompson's death, in which case the Agreement shall terminate immediately; and
(e) The occurrence of a breach of this Agreement on three or more occasions during any 12-month period of the Term (regardless of whether or not such breaches are cured in a timely fashion), in which case this Agreement shall terminate immediately upon written notice to Thompson from Employer.
In the event Employer exercises its right of termination for reasons other than any of those specified for in paragraphs (a) through (e) above ("Unstated Reasons"), such termination shall be effective thirty (30) days after Employer's delivery of its written notice of such termination; provided, however, from and after the effective date of a termination for any Unstated Reason, and continuing for a period of six (6) months, or through the Expiration Date, whichever occurs first, Employer shall continue to pay to Thompson, the Annual Salary and benefits to which he would have been entitled (under the express terms of this Agreement), but for the accelerated termination hereof.
6.02 Thompson shall have no right to terminate this Agreement, except (a) as provided in Sections 6.06 and 6.07 below, and (b) in the event of the occurrence of a breach of this Agreement by Employer, which Employer does not cure within ten (10) days after delivery of Thompson's written notice of such alleged breach.
6.03 Subject to Article 8, termination of this Agreement by Employer or by Thompson pursuant to any of the provisions of this Article VI shall not prejudice any other remedy to which the terminating party may be entitled as a result of a breach of this Agreement by the non-terminating party, whether at law, in equity, or under this Agreement.
6.04 In the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, Thompson shall be entitled to receive a prorated portion of his Annual Salary through the effective date of such
termination. In addition, in the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, Thompson shall be entitled to reimbursement of all business expenses incurred by him (pursuant to Section 5.01) prior to the effective date of termination that would otherwise be reimbursable hereunder. Further, Thompson shall also be entitled to the remuneration provided in Sections 6.01, 6.06 and 6.07.
6.05 Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Thompson shall forthwith return and deliver to Employer, and shall not retain any originals or copies of, any books, papers, price lists or customer contracts, written proposals of Employer or prospective customers or tenants, customer/tenant lists, rent rolls, leases, files, books of account, notebooks and other documents and data relating to the performance of services rendered by Thompson hereunder, except for those materials in Thompson's possession immediately prior to the commencement of the Term (collectively, "Employer's Materials"), all of which Employer Materials are hereby deemed to constitute the property of Employer.
6.06 If, at any time during the Term, except in connection with a
termination pursuant to Section 6.01(a), (b) or (e) above, Thompson is
Constructively Discharged (as hereinafter defined), then Thompson shall have
the right, by written notice to the Employer, given within one hundred and
twenty (120) days of the effective date of such Constructive Discharge, to
terminate his services hereunder (the "Termination Notice"), effective as of
the date that is thirty (30) days after the date on which such Termination
Notice is delivered, and Thompson shall have no further rights or obligations
under this Agreement other than as provided in this Section 6.06 and in Article
VII. For purposes of this Agreement, Thompson shall be deemed to have been
"Constructively Discharged" upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
(i) Thompson is not re-elected to, or is otherwise removed from, his position as the SRD in the Territory with the Employer other than as a result of (x) Thompson's election or appointment to positions of equal or superior scope and responsibility or (y) Thompson's breach of, or default under, the terms of this Agreement; or
(ii) Employer fails to vest Thompson with the powers, authority and support services normally attendant, from time to time, to the other SRDs; or
(iii) Employer notifies Thompson, in writing, that Thompson's
employment will be terminated (other than pursuant to Section 6.01(a),
(b) or (e) above) or materially modified in the future, or that Thompson
will be Constructively Discharged in the future.
If Thompson is Constructively Discharged and timely delivers a Termination Notice, then from and after the effective date of a termination pursuant to a Termination Notice, and continuing for a period of six months or through the Expiration Date, whichever occurs first, Employer shall continue to pay to Thompson the Annual Salary and benefits to which he would have been entitled (under the express terms of this Agreement), but for the accelerated termination hereof.
6.07 (a) In the event of a Change in Control (as defined below) of the Employer and the termination of Thompson's employment by Thompson or by the Employer under either (i) or (ii) below, Thompson shall be entitled to the "Severance Payment" described below. The Severance Payment shall not be offset against or diminish any other compensation or benefits
accrued as of the effective date of termination. The following shall constitute termination under this Section 6.07:
(i) Thompson terminates his employment under this Agreement pursuant to a written notice to that effect delivered to the Board within six (6) months after the occurrence of the Change in Control; or
(ii) Thompson's employment is terminated, including Constructively Discharged, by the Employer or its successor either in contemplation of or within two (2) years after the Change in Control, other than pursuant to Section 6.01(a), (b) or (e) above.
(b) For purposes of this paragraph, the term "Change in Control" shall mean the following:
(i) The consummation of the acquisition by any person [as such term is defined in Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act")] of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act) of forty percent (40%) or more of the combined voting power embodied in the then-outstanding voting securities of the Employer; or
(ii) Approval by the stockholders of the Employer of: (1) a merger or consolidation of the Employer, if the stockholders of the Employer immediately before such merger or consolidation do not, as a result of such merger or consolidation, own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of the entity resulting from such merger or consolidation in substantially the same proportion as was represented by their ownership of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Employer outstanding immediately before such merger or consolidation; or (2) a complete or substantial liquidation or dissolution, or an agreement for the sale or other disposition, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Employer.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because forty percent (40%) or more of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities is acquired by: (x) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under one or more employee benefit plans maintained for employees of the entity; or (y) any corporation or other entity which, immediately prior to such acquisition, is owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Employer in the same proportion as their ownership of stock in the Employer immediately prior to such acquisition.
