EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014 of Kilroy Realty Corporation and Kilroy Realty, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Kilroy Realty Corporation” or the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” mean Kilroy Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, and its controlled and consolidated subsidiaries, and references to “Kilroy Realty, L.P.” or the “Operating Partnership” mean Kilroy Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and its controlled and consolidated subsidiaries.
The Company is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. As of June 30, 2014 , the Company owned an approximate 97.9% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining approximate 2.1% common limited partnership interests are owned by non-affiliated investors and certain directors and officers of the Company. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company exercises exclusive and complete discretion over the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management and control and can cause it to enter into certain major transactions, including acquisitions, dispositions and refinancings and cause changes in its line of business, capital structure and distribution policies.
There are a few differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership that are reflected in the disclosures in this Form 10-Q. We believe it is important to understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Company and the Operating Partnership operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. The Company is a REIT, the only material asset of which is the partnership interests it holds in the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership. The Company itself is not directly obligated under any indebtedness, but guarantees some of the debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership owns substantially all of the assets of the Company either directly or through its subsidiaries, conducts the operations of the Company’s business and is structured as a limited partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances by the Company, which the Company is required to contribute to the Operating Partnership in exchange for units of partnership interest, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the Company’s business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, by the Operating Partnership’s incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of units of partnership interest.
Noncontrolling interests and stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The common limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements and, to the extent not held by the Company, as noncontrolling interests in the Company’s financial statements. The Operating Partnership’s financial statements reflect the noncontrolling interest in Kilroy Realty Finance Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Finance Partnership”). This noncontrolling interest represents the Company’s 1% indirect general partnership interest in the Finance Partnership, which is directly held by Kilroy Realty Finance, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The differences between stockholders’ equity, partners’ capital and noncontrolling interests result from the differences in the equity issued by the Company and the Operating Partnership, and in the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interest in the Finance Partnership.
We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report results in the following benefits:
Combined reports better reflect how management and the analyst community view the business as a single operating unit;
Combined reports enhance investors’ understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management;
Combined reports are more efficient for the Company and the Operating Partnership and result in savings in time, effort and expense; and
Combined reports are more efficient for investors by reducing duplicative disclosure and providing a single document for their review.
To help investors understand the significant differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following separate sections for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership:
consolidated financial statements;
the following notes to the consolidated financial statements:
Note 5, Secured and Unsecured Debt of the Operating Partnership;
Note 6, Noncontrolling Interests on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements;

i


Note 7, Stockholders’ Equity of the Company;
Note 8, Partners’ Capital of the Operating Partnership;
Note 14, Net Income Available to Common Stockholders Per Share of the Company; and
Note 15, Net Income Available to Common Unitholders Per Unit of the Operating Partnership;
“Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
—Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company;” and
—Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership.”
This report also includes separate sections under Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures and separate Exhibit 31 and Exhibit 32 certifications for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that the Company and Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

1.    Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

Kilroy Realty Corporation (the “Company”) is a self-administered real estate investment trust (“REIT”) active in premier office submarkets along the West Coast. We own, develop, acquire and manage real estate assets, consisting primarily of Class A properties in the coastal regions of Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego County, the San Francisco Bay Area and greater Seattle, which we believe have strategic advantages and strong barriers to entry. Class A real estate encompasses attractive and efficient buildings of high quality that are attractive to tenants, are well-designed and constructed with above-average material, workmanship and finishes and are well-maintained and managed. We qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company’s common stock is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol “KRC.”

We own our interests in all of our real estate assets through Kilroy Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) and Kilroy Realty Finance Partnership, L.P. (the “Finance Partnership”). We generally conduct substantially all of our operations through the Operating Partnership. Unless stated otherwise or the context indicates otherwise, the terms “Kilroy Realty Corporation” or the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Kilroy Realty Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries and the term “Operating Partnership” refers to Kilroy Realty, L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The descriptions of our business, employees, and properties apply to both the Company and the Operating Partnership.

Our stabilized portfolio of operating properties was comprised of the following office properties at June 30, 2014 :

 
Number of
Buildings
 
Rentable
Square Feet
 
Number of
Tenants
 
Percentage 
Occupied
Stabilized Office Properties
105

 
13,189,326

 
532

 
93.6
%

Our stabilized portfolio includes all of our properties with the exception of real estate assets held for sale, undeveloped land, development and redevelopment properties currently under construction or committed for construction, and “lease-up” properties. We define redevelopment properties as those properties for which we expect to spend significant development and construction costs on the existing or acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan, the intended result of which is a higher economic return on the property. We define “lease-up” properties as properties we recently developed or redeveloped that have not yet reached 95%  occupancy and are within one year following cessation of major construction activities. There were no operating properties in “lease-up” as of June 30, 2014 .

As of June 30, 2014 , the following properties were excluded from our stabilized portfolio:

As of June 30, 2014 , all of our properties and development and redevelopment projects and all of our business was conducted in the state of California with the exception of thirteen  office properties located in the state of Washington. All of our properties and development and redevelopment projects are 100% owned, excluding a development project owned by Redwood City Partners, LLC, a consolidated subsidiary (see Note 6), and certain properties held in connection with potential like-kind exchanges pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code (“Section 1031 Exchanges”) to defer taxable gains on dispositions for federal and state income tax purposes that have been consolidated for financial reporting purposes.

KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)


As of June 30, 2014 , the Company owned a 97.9% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining 2.1% common limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership as of June 30, 2014 was owned by non-affiliated investors and certain of our executive officers and directors (see Note 6). Both the general and limited common partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are denominated in common units. The number of common units held by the Company is at all times equivalent to the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, and the rights of all the common units to quarterly distributions and payments in liquidation mirror those of the Company’s common stockholders. The common limited partners have certain redemption rights as provided in the Operating Partnership’s Seventh Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended, the “Partnership Agreement”) (see Note 6).

Kilroy Realty Finance, Inc., which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is the sole general partner of the Finance Partnership and owns a 1.0% common general partnership interest in the Finance Partnership. The Operating Partnership owns the remaining 99.0% common limited partnership interest. Kilroy Services, LLC (“KSLLC”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, is the entity through which we generally conduct substantially all of our development activities. With the exception of the Operating Partnership and Redwood City Partners, LLC, all of our subsidiaries are wholly owned.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Finance Partnership, KSLLC, Redwood City Partners, LLC and all of our wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership include the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Operating Partnership, the Finance Partnership, KSLLC, Redwood City Partners, LLC and all wholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. However, the results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. The interim financial statements for the Company and the Operating Partnership should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2013 .

Certain amounts in the consolidated statements of operations for prior periods have been reclassified to reflect the activity of discontinued operations.

Variable Interest Entities

At June 30, 2014 , the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Operating Partnership included two variable interest entities (“VIEs”), in which we were deemed to be the primary beneficiary. One of the VIEs was established during the second quarter of 2014 to facilitate potential Section 1031 Exchanges. The other VIE, Redwood City Partners, LLC, was established in the second quarter of 2013 in connection with an undeveloped land acquisition. The impact of consolidating the VIEs increased the Company’s total assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests by approximately $175.4 million (of which $170.7 million related to real estate held for investment on our consolidated balance sheet), approximately $12.8 million and approximately $4.9 million , respectively, as of June 30, 2014 . As of December 31, 2013 , the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Operating Partnership included four VIEs, in which we were deemed to be the primary beneficiary. One of the VIEs was Redwood City Partners, LLC and the remaining three VIEs were established during the third and fourth quarter of 2013 to facilitate potential Section 1031 Exchanges. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Section 1031 Exchanges were successfully completed and the three VIEs were terminated. As a result, $32.2 million of our restricted cash balance at December 31, 2013 , which related to prior period disposition proceeds that were set aside to facilitate the Section 1031 Exchanges, was released from escrow. The impact of consolidating the VIEs increased the Company’s total assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests by approximately $251.8 million (of which $234.5 million related to real estate held for investment on our consolidated balance sheet), approximately $12.1 million and approximately $4.9 million , respectively, as of December 31, 2013 .

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On June 19, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued their final standard to amend the accounting guidance for stock compensation tied to performance targets (Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-12). The issue is the result of a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (Issue No. 13-D). The standard requires that a performance target that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition, and as a result, this type of performance condition may delay expense recognition until achievement of the performance target is probable. The ASU is effective for all entities for reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2016 and the guidance is not anticipated to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or notes to our consolidated financial statements.

On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued their final standard on revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance specifically notes that lease contracts with customers are a scope exception. The standard (ASU No. 2014-09) outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenues arising from contracts with customers. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods), beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company will adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2017 and is currently assessing the impact on our consolidated financial statements and notes to our consolidated financial statements.

On April 10, 2014, the FASB issued final guidance to change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area (ASU No. 2014-08). Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift, such as a major line of business, a major geographical area or a major equity investment, should be presented as discontinued operations. The guidance will be applied prospectively to new disposals and new classifications of disposal groups as held for sale after the effective date. The guidance is effective for annual financial statements with fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2014 with early adoption permitted for disposals or classifications as held for sale which have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Company will adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2015 and the guidance is not anticipated to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and notes to our consolidated financial statements.

Upon exchange, the holders of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes will receive (i) cash up to the principal amount of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes and (ii) to the extent the exchange value exceeds the principal amount of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes, shares of the Company’s common stock. Any shares of common stock delivered for settlement will be based on a daily exchange value calculated on a proportionate basis for each day of a 30 trading-day observation period. Upon notification, the noteholders will no longer be eligible to receive interest payments from the previous payment date.

The 4.25% Exchangeable Notes are exchangeable for shares of the Company’s common stock prior to maturity only upon the occurrence of certain events. During the three  and six months ended June 30, 2014 , the closing sale price per share of the common stock of the Company was more than 130% of the exchange price per share of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days in the specified period. As a result, for the three month period ended June 30, 2014 , the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes were exchangeable at the exchange rate stated above and may be exchangeable thereafter, if one or more of the events were again to occur during future measurement periods.

In connection with the offering of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes, we entered into capped call option transactions (“capped calls”) to mitigate the dilutive impact of the potential exchange of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes. The capped calls, as amended, are separate transactions entered into by us with the relevant financial institutions, are not part of the terms of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes, and do not affect the holders’ rights under the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes. The strike prices of the capped calls, which are subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, correspond to the exchange prices of the applicable 4.25% Exchangeable Notes. The table below summarizes our capped call option positions for the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 .

As of the date of this report, the Company’s capped call option position has been reduced to 4,717,498 shares of common stock.

The capped calls are expected to terminate upon the earlier of the maturity date of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes or upon the date upon which the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes are no longer outstanding resulting from an exchange or repurchase by us. The initial cost of the capped calls were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.

For the three and six  months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the per share average trading price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE was higher than the $35.93 exchange price for the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes, as presented below:

During the three months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company received notices for exchange totaling $37.0 million of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes. $27.7 million settled in July 2014 and $9.3 million will settle in August 2014. For these exchanges, the number of shares issued in excess of the exchange value was calculated on a proportionate basis for each day of a 30 trading-day observation following the exchange date. For the July 2014 exchange settlements, the Company paid the noteholders $27.7 million of principal value in cash and 321,358 shares of common stock for the excess exchange value. As a result of the July 2014 exchanges, the Company exercised the equivalent proportionate amount of its capped call option and received 83,298 shares of

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company amended the terms of our unsecured revolving credit facility and the Company’s $150.0 million term loan facility. The amendment increased the size of the Company’s unsecured line of credit to $600.0 million , extended the maturity to July 2019 on both the credit facility and term loan facility, reduced the annual interest rate on the unsecured revolving credit facility to LIBOR plus 1.250% and reduced the annual interest rate on the term loan facility to LIBOR plus 1.400% . The amendment did not affect the outstanding borrowings under the credit facility.

Debt Covenants and Restrictions

The revolving credit facility, the term loan facility, the unsecured senior notes, and certain other secured debt arrangements contain covenants and restrictions requiring us to meet certain financial ratios and reporting requirements. Some of the more restrictive financial covenants include a maximum ratio of total debt to total asset value, a minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio, a minimum unsecured debt ratio and a minimum unencumbered asset pool debt service coverage ratio. Noncompliance with one or more of the covenants and restrictions could result in the full principal balance of the associated debt becoming immediately due and payable. We believe we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of June 30, 2014 .

6.    Noncontrolling Interests on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements

Common Units of the Operating Partnership

The Company owned a 97.9% , 97.8% and 97.7% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership as of June 30, 2014 , December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 , respectively. The remaining 2.1% , 2.2% and 2.3% common limited partnership interest as of June 30, 2014 , December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 , respectively, was owned by non-affiliate investors and certain of our executive officers and directors in the form of noncontrolling common units. There were 1,804,200 , 1,805,200 and 1,821,503 common units outstanding held by these investors, executive officers and directors as of June 30, 2014 , December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 , respectively.

The noncontrolling common units may be redeemed by unitholders for cash. Except under certain circumstances, we, at our option, may satisfy the cash redemption obligation with shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis. If satisfied in cash, the value for each noncontrolling common unit upon redemption is the amount equal to the average of the closing quoted price per share of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share, as reported on the NYSE for the ten trading days immediately preceding the applicable redemption date. The aggregate value upon redemption of the then-outstanding noncontrolling common units was $112.0 million and $90.8 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 , respectively. This redemption value does not necessarily represent the amount that would be distributed with respect to each noncontrolling common unit in the event of our termination or liquidation. In the event of our termination or liquidation, it is expected in most cases that each common unit would be entitled to a liquidating distribution equal to the liquidating distribution payable in respect of each share of the Company’s common stock.

Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Variable Interest Entity

The noncontrolling interest in consolidated subsidiary represents the third party equity interest in Redwood City Partners, LLC, a consolidated VIE. This noncontrolling interest was $4.9 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 .

Since commencement of the program, we have sold 2,553,961 shares of common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of $127.9 million . As of June 30, 2014 , shares of common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $72.1 million remain available to be sold under this program. Actual future sales will depend upon a variety of factors, including but not limited to market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock and our capital needs. We have no obligation to sell the remaining shares available for sale under this program.

9.    Share-Based Compensation

Stockholder Approved Equity Compensation Plans

As of June 30, 2014 , we maintained one share-based incentive compensation plan, the Kilroy Realty 2006 Incentive Award Plan as amended (the “2006 Plan”). As of March 31, 2014, no shares were available for grant under the 2006 Plan. At our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, on May 22, 2014, stockholders approved an amendment of the 2006 Plan, which included an increase in the share limit to 7,120,000 shares. As of June 30, 2014 , 730,127 shares were available for grant under the amended 2006 Plan.

2014 Share-Based Compensation Grants

On January 29, 2014, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors awarded to certain officers of the Company under the 2006 Plan of 236,604 restricted stock units (“RSUs”), 119,098 RSUs that are subject to market and performance-based vesting requirements (the “2014 Performance-Based RSU Grant”) and 117,506 RSUs that are subject to time-

KILROY REALTY CORPORATION AND KILROY REALTY, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)


based vesting requirements (the “2014 Time-Based RSU Grant”). As of the RSU grant date, an insufficient number of shares were available under the 2006 Plan to settle these RSUs in stock and the RSUs were subject to liability accounting. As discussed above, on May 22, 2014 we received stockholder approval for an increase to our share limit which resulted in a sufficient number of shares authorized by our stockholders for issuance under the 2006 Plan to cover settlement of these awards. As a result, as of May 22, 2014 given we have the ability to deliver shares to settle the RSUs, we reclassified these awards as equity awards and re-measured the fair value of the awards as of that date.

2014 Performance-Based RSU Grant

The 2014 Performance-Based RSUs are scheduled to vest at the end of a three year period based upon the achievement of pre-established levels of FFO per share (the “performance condition”) for the year ended December 31, 2014 and also based upon the average annual relative total stockholder return targets (the “market condition”) for the three year period ending December 31, 2016. The 2014 Performance-Based RSUs are also subject to a three-year service vesting provision and will cliff vest at the end of the three-year period. The number of 2014 Performance-Based RSUs ultimately earned could fluctuate from the 119,098 RSUs granted based upon the levels of achievement for both the FFO and relative stockholder return metrics. Compensation expense for the 2014 Performance-Based RSU Grant will be recorded on a straight-line basis over the three year period.

Each 2014 Performance-Based RSU represents the right to receive one share of our common stock in the future. As of March 31, 2014, we recorded compensation expense for the award based upon the fair value at period end of $63.44 , as we had an insufficient number of shares available for issuance under the 2006 Plan at that time. As discussed above, upon stockholder approval of the amended 2006 Plan on May 22, 2014, we were required to re-measure the fair value of the 2014 Performance-Based RSU Grant and record compensation expense based on the fair value at that date for the cumulative portion of the performance period that had elapsed. The total fair value of the 2014 Performance-Based RSU Grant was $7.7 million at May 22, 2014 and was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model based on the assumptions in the table below. The determination of the fair value of the 2014 Performance-Based RSU Grant takes into consideration the likelihood of achievement of both the performance condition and the market condition discussed above. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 , we recorded compensation expense based upon the $65.03 fair value at May 22, 2014. The following table summarizes the assumptions utilized in the Monte Carlo simulation pricing model:
 
Fair Value Assumptions
Fair value per share at May 22, 2014
$65.03
Expected share price volatility
24.00%
Risk-free interest rate
0.61%
Remaining expected life
2.6

The computation of expected volatility is based on a blend of the historical volatility of our shares of common stock over approximately five years as that is expected to be most consistent with future volatility and equates to a time period twice as long as the approximate two and a half year remaining performance period of the RSUs and implied volatility data based on the observed pricing of six month publicly-traded options on our shares of common stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury STRIP securities in effect at May 22, 2014. The expected dividend yield is estimated by examining the average of the historical dividend yield levels over the remaining 2.6 year term of the RSUs and our current annualized dividend yield as of May 22, 2014. The expected life of the RSUs is equal to the remaining 2.6 year vesting period at May 22, 2014.

2014 Time-Based RSU Grant

The 2014 Time-Based RSUs are scheduled to vest in four equal installments beginning on January 5, 2015 through January 5, 2018. Compensation expense for the 2014 Time-Based RSUs will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four year service vesting period. Each 2014 Time-Based RSUs represents the right to receive one share of our common stock in the future. As of March 31, 2014, we recorded compensation expense for the award based upon the fair value at period end of $51.64 , because at that time an insufficient number of shares were available for issuance under the 2006 Plan. As discussed above, upon stockholder approval of the amended 2006 Plan on May 22, 2014, we were required to re-measure the fair value of the 2014 Time-Based RSU Grant and record compensation expense based on the fair value at that date, for the cumulative portion of the performance period that had elapsed. The total fair value was $7.1 million , which was based on the $60.16 closing share price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE on May 22, 2014.

The total shares exercised include 16,908 common shares that were tendered in accordance with the terms of the 2006 Plan to satisfy minimum statutory tax withholding requirements and exercise price related to the non-qualified stock options exercised. We accept the return of shares at the current quoted closing share price of the Company’s common stock to satisfy tax obligations and cover the exercise price.

Share-Based Compensation Cost Recorded During the Period

The total compensation cost for all share-based compensation programs was $3.5 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively, and $6.4 million and $4.7 million for the six  months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively. Of the total share-based compensation costs, $0.5 million and $0.2 million was capitalized as part of real estate assets for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively, and $0.9 million and $0.4 million was capitalized as part of real estate assets for the six  months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively. As of June 30, 2014 , there was approximately $35.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested incentive awards granted under share-based compensation arrangements that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.1  years. The remaining compensation cost related to these nonvested incentive awards had been recognized in periods prior to June 30, 2014 .

10.    Commitments and Contingencies

General

As of June 30, 2014 , we had commitments of approximately $635.8 million , excluding our ground lease commitments, for contracts and executed leases directly related to our operating and redevelopment properties.

Environmental Matters

We follow the policy of monitoring our properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. While there can be no assurance that a material environmental liability does not exist, we are not currently aware of any environmental liability with respect to the properties that would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. Further, we are not aware of any environmental liability or any unasserted claim or assessment with respect to an environmental liability that we believe would require additional disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.

11.    Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

Assets and Liabilities Reported at Fair Value

The only assets we record at fair value on a recurring basis on our consolidated financial statements are the marketable securities related to our deferred compensation plan. The following table sets forth the fair value of our marketable securities as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 :

We report the change in the fair value of the marketable securities at the end of each accounting period in interest income and other net investment gains in the consolidated statements of operations. We adjust the related deferred compensation plan liability to fair value at the end of each accounting period based on the performance of the benchmark funds selected by each participant, which results in a corresponding increase or decrease to compensation cost for the period.

12.    Other Significant Events

In January 2014, a tenant at one of our San Diego, California operating properties exercised an early lease termination clause as permitted under the terms of their lease. As a result, the lease which encompasses approximately 79,000 rentable square feet and was scheduled to expire in February 2020, will terminate during the third quarter of 2014. The total lease termination fee of $5.7 million , of which the Company recorded $1.9 million and $3.7 million during the three and six  months ended June 30, 2014 , will be recorded as other property income on a straight line basis through the early lease termination date. During the three and six  months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company also recognized approximately $0.4 million and $0.9 million as a reduction to rental income due to the accelerated amortization of the deferred rent receivable and above market lease for this tenant.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations for the three  months ended June 30, 2014 includes the gains on dispositions of $14.7 million related to the June 2014 office property dispositions. The operations related to the June 2014 office property dispositions were immaterial for classification as discontinued operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , discontinued operations also included the income of the twelve operating office properties sold in January 2014. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 , discontinued operations also included the income from three operating office properties that were sold during those respective periods in 2013. The following table summarizes the revenue and expense components that comprise income from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 :

Land Disposition

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company sold a land parcel located at 10850 Via Frontera in the Rancho Bernardo submarket of San Diego, California for a gross sales price of $33.1 million , resulting in a gain on sale of $3.5 million . The land parcel noted above did not meet the criteria for classification as discontinued operations because the parcel did not have any significant operations prior to disposal. Therefore, the gain on sale is included on our consolidated statements of operations as gain on sale of land within continuing operations.

Restricted Cash Related to Dispositions

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 , approximately $75.9 million and $32.2 million , respectively, of net proceeds related to the land and office properties disposed of during the six  months ended June 30, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013 were temporarily being held at qualified intermediaries, at our direction, for the purpose of facilitating Section 1031 Exchanges. The cash proceeds are included in restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 . In July 2014, $15.3 million of the cash proceeds at June 30, 2014 were released from the qualified intermediary. In February 2014, we successfully completed one of the Section 1031 Exchanges and the $32.2 million cash proceeds were released from the qualified intermediary.

On July 16, 2014, aggregate dividends, distributions and dividend equivalents of $30.1 million were paid to common stockholders and common unitholders of record on June 30, 2014 and RSU holders of record on July 16, 2014.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company received notices for exchange for $37.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes (See Note 5).

On July 21, 2014, the Company announced that it executed a merger agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of San Francisco Flowers Growers Association (“SFFGA”), a privately owned entity whose only material asset as of the closing of the proposed merger is anticipated to be a 1.9 acre land site in the Central SOMA submarket of San Francisco, California, in a transaction valued at approximately $27.0 million . The acquisition is contingent upon the approval and adoption of the merger agreement and approval of the principal terms of the merger by SFFGA’s shareholders. The acquisition will be financed by the Company directly issuing approximately $22.0 million of its common stock to SFFGA shareholders and the immediate repayment of approximately $4.6 million of outstanding debt and transaction related expenses. On July 21, 2014, the Company filed a Form S-4 to register the shares to be issued to SFGGA’s shareholders. It is anticipated that the transaction will close by the end of 2014.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

The following discussion relates to our consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. The results of operations discussion is combined for the Company and the Operating Partnership because there are no material differences in the results of operations between the two reporting entities.

Statements contained in this “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” that are not historical facts may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements or information concerning projected future occupancy and rental rates, lease expirations, debt maturity, potential investments, strategies such as capital recycling, development and redevelopment activity, projected construction costs, dispositions, future incentive compensation, pending, potential or proposed acquisitions and other forward-looking financial data, as well as the discussion below under the captions “—Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations,” “—Liquidity and Capital Resource of the Company,” and “—Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership.” Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “expects,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “pro forma,” “estimates” or “anticipates” and the negative of these words and phrases and similar expressions that do not relate to historical matters. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, beliefs and assumptions, and are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks, changes in circumstances, trends and factors that are difficult to predict, many of which are outside of our control. Accordingly, actual performance, results and events may vary materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements, and you should not rely on the forward-looking statements as predictions of future performance, results or events. Numerous factors could cause actual future performance, results and events to differ materially from those indicated in forward-looking statements. For a discussion of those risk factors, see the discussion below as well as “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2013 and their respective other filings with the SEC. All forward-looking statements are based on information that was available and speak only as of the date on which they are made. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statement that becomes untrue because of subsequent events, new information or otherwise, except to the extent we are required to do so in connection with our ongoing requirements under Federal securities laws.

Overview and Background

We are a self-administered REIT active in premier office submarkets along the West Coast. We own, develop, acquire and manage real estate assets, consisting primarily of Class A properties in the coastal regions of Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego County, the San Francisco Bay Area and greater Seattle, which we believe have strategic advantages and strong barriers to entry. We own our interests in all of our properties through the Operating Partnership and the Finance Partnership and generally conduct substantially all of our operations through the Operating Partnership. We owned a 97.9% , 97.8% and 97.7% general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership as of June 30, 2014 , December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 , respectively. All our properties are held in fee except for the 11 office buildings that are held subject to long-term ground leases for the land.

Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations

Acquisitions . During the six months ended June 30, 2014 , we acquired one office building in greater Seattle for a total purchase price of $106.1 million . During 2013 , we acquired two office buildings in greater Seattle and two office buildings in the Del Mar submarket of San Diego County for a total purchase price of approximately $296.4 million . Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2014 , we acquired one undeveloped land site in San Francisco for a total purchase price of $95.0 million . There were no undeveloped land sites acquired in 2013. We generally finance our acquisitions through proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity securities, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, proceeds from our capital recycling program and the assumption of existing debt.

As a key component of our growth strategy, we continue to evaluate value-add acquisition opportunities (including undeveloped land, development and redevelopment opportunities and office properties). As a result, at any point in time we may have one or more potential acquisitions under consideration that are in varying stages of evaluation, negotiation or due diligence review, which may include potential acquisitions under contract. We remain a disciplined buyer of office properties and undeveloped land and continue to focus on value-add opportunities in West Coast markets populated by knowledge and creative based tenants in a variety of industries, including technology, media, healthcare, entertainment and professional services. We cannot provide assurance that we will complete additional future acquisitions. In the future, we may enter into agreements to acquire additional properties or undeveloped land, either as wholly owned properties or through joint ventures, and those agreements typically will be subject to

30


the satisfaction of closing conditions. We cannot provide assurance that we will enter into any agreements to acquire properties or undeveloped land or that the potential acquisitions contemplated by any agreements we may enter into in the future will be completed. Costs associated with acquisitions accounted for as business combinations are expensed as incurred, and we may be unable to complete an acquisition after making a nonrefundable deposit or incurring acquisition-related costs. In addition, acquisitions are subject to various other risks and uncertainties. During the three and six  months ended June 30, 2014 , we expensed approximately $0.6 million and $0.8 million , respectively, of third-party acquisition costs, and we anticipate that we may incur additional third-party acquisition costs during the remainder of 2014. We expect that during 2014 we will continue to pursue value-add property and undeveloped land acquisitions that either add immediate Net Operating Income to our portfolio or play a strategic role in our future growth.

Capital Recycling Program . We continuously evaluate opportunities for the potential disposition of properties and undeveloped land in our portfolio with the intent of recycling the proceeds generated from the disposition of non-strategic properties or lower return assets into capital used to fund new operating and development acquisitions, to finance development and redevelopment expenditures, to repay long-term debt and for other general corporate purposes. As part of this strategy, we attempt to enter into Section 1031 Exchanges, when possible, to defer some or all of the taxable gains on the sales, if any, for federal and state income tax purposes.

In connection with our capital recycling strategy, through June 30, 2014 , we completed the sale of fourteen  properties located in San Diego and one undeveloped land parcel located in San Diego to unaffiliated third parties in three separate transactions for gross sales proceeds totaling approximately $357.3 million . During 2013, we completed the sale of three  office buildings to unaffiliated third parties in three separate transactions, for gross sales proceeds totaling approximately $56.9 million . The timing of any potential future disposition transactions will depend on market conditions and other factors, including but not limited to our capital needs and our ability to defer some or all of the taxable gains on the sales. We cannot assure you that we will dispose of any additional properties or that future acquisitions and/or dispositions, if any, will qualify as Section 1031 Exchanges.

Leasing Activity and Changes in Rental Rates . The amount of net rental income generated by our properties depends principally on our ability to maintain the occupancy rates of currently leased space and to lease currently available space, newly developed or redeveloped properties, newly acquired properties with vacant space, and space available from unscheduled lease terminations. The amount of rental income we generate also depends on our ability to maintain or increase rental rates in our submarkets. Negative trends in one or more of these factors could adversely affect our rental income in future periods. The following tables set forth certain information regarding leasing activity for our stabilized portfolio during the three and six  months ended June 30, 2014 .

(1)
First generation leasing includes space where we have made capital expenditures that result in additional revenue generated when the space is re-leased. Second generation leasing includes space where we have made capital expenditures to maintain the current market revenue stream.
(2)
Represents leasing activity for leases that commenced or signed at properties in the stabilized portfolio during the period, including first and second generation space, net of month-to-month leases. Excludes leasing on new construction.
(3)
Tenant improvements and leasing commissions per square foot exclude tenant-funded tenant improvements.
(4)
Calculated as the change between GAAP rents for new/renewed leases and the expiring GAAP rents for the same space. Excludes leases for which the space was vacant longer than one year or vacant when the property was acquired.
(5)
Excludes commenced and executed leases of approximately 263,605 and 90,928 square feet, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 331,622 and 213,127 rentable square feet, respectively, for the six  months ended June 30, 2014 , for which the space was vacant longer than one year or being leased for the first time. Space vacant for more than one year is excluded from our change in rents calculations to provide a meaningful market comparison.
(6)
Calculated as the change between stated rents for new/renewed leases and the expiring stated rents for the same space. Excludes leases for which the space was vacant longer than one year or vacant when the property was acquired.
(7)
Calculated as the percentage of space either renewed or expanded into by existing tenants or subtenants at lease expiration.
(8)
For the three months ended June 30, 2014 , 18 new leases totaling 136,794 rentable square feet were signed but not commenced as of June 30, 2014 . For the six months ended June 30, 2014 , 24 new leases totaling 236,339 rentable square feet were signed but not commenced as of June 30, 2014 .

As of  June 30, 2014 , we believe that the weighted average cash rental rates for our stabilized portfolio, including recently acquired operating properties are approximately 5-10% under the current average market rental rates, although individual properties within any particular submarket presently may be leased either above, below, or at the current market rates within that submarket, and the average rental rates for individual submarkets may be above, below, or at the average cash rental rate of our portfolio.

In general, market rental rates have continued to increase in the majority of our submarkets over the last several quarters. Our rental rates and occupancy are impacted by general economic conditions, including the pace of regional economic growth and access to capital. Therefore, we cannot give any assurance that leases will be renewed or that available space will be re-leased at rental rates equal to or above the current market rates. Additionally, decreased demand and other negative trends or unforeseeable events that impair our ability to timely renew or re-lease space could have further negative effects on our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

(1)
The information presented for all lease expiration activity reflects leasing activity through June 30, 2014 for our stabilized portfolio. For leases that have been renewed early or space that has been re-leased to a new tenant, the expiration date and annualized base rent information presented takes into consideration the renewed or re-leased lease terms. Excludes space leased under month-to-month leases, intercompany leases, vacant space and lease renewal options not executed as of June 30, 2014 .
(2)
Annualized base rent includes the impact of straight-lining rent escalations and the amortization of free rent periods and excludes the impact of the following: amortization of deferred revenue related tenant-funded tenant improvements, amortization of above/below market rents, amortization for lease incentives due under existing leases and expense reimbursement revenue. Additionally, the underlying leases contain various expense structures including full service gross, modified gross and triple net. Percentages represent percentage of total portfolio annualized contractual base rental revenue. For additional information on tenant improvement and leasing commission costs incurred by the Company for the current reporting period, please see further discussion under the caption “Information on Leases Commenced and Executed.”

In addition to the 0.8 million  rentable square feet, or 6.4% , of currently available space in our stabilized portfolio, leases representing approximately 5.0% and 11.8% of the occupied square footage of our stabilized portfolio are scheduled to expire during 2014 and 2015 , respectively. The leases scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2014 and in 2015 represent approximately 2.0 million rentable square feet or 14.4% of our total annualized base rental revenue. We believe that the weighted average cash rental rates are approximately 5-10% under the current average market rental rates for leases scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2014 and in 2015 , although individual properties within any particular submarket presently may be leased either above, below, or at the current quoted market rates within that submarket, and the average rental rates for individual submarkets may be above, below, or at the average cash rental rate of our overall portfolio. Our ability to re-lease available space depends upon both general market conditions and the market conditions in the specific regions in which individual properties are located.

In-Process and Future Development Pipeline

We believe that a portion of our long-term future growth will also come from the completion of our in-process projects as well as executing on our future development pipeline, subject to market conditions. We continue to increase our focus on value-add and highly accretive development opportunities and expand our future development pipeline through targeted acquisitions of development opportunities on the West Coast.

We have a proactive planning process by which we continually evaluate the size, timing, costs and scope of our development program and, as necessary, scale activity to reflect the economic conditions and the real estate fundamentals that exist in our strategic submarkets. We expect to proceed in our development program with discipline and will be pursuing opportunities with attractive economic returns, in locations with transportation and retail amenities and in markets with strong fundamentals and visible demand. We plan to develop in phases as appropriate and we strongly favor starting projects that are pre-leased.

As of June 30, 2014 , our in-process development pipeline consisted of the following six projects under construction.

680 and 690 E. Middlefield Road, Mountain View, California, which we acquired in May 2012. The development project, which is 100% pre-leased to Synopsys, Inc., has a total estimated investment of approximately $193.1 million and is expected to encompass approximately 341,000  rentable square feet upon completion. Construction is currently in process and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014.

350 Mission Street, SOMA, San Francisco, California, which we acquired in October 2012. The development project, which is 100% pre-leased to salesforce.com, inc., has a total estimated investment of $276.6 million and is expected to encompass approximately 450,000  rentable square feet upon completion. The property is expected to be LEED platinum

33


certified, the first ground up development property in the city expected to receive this designation. Construction is currently in process and is expected to be completed during 2015 and the tenant is expected to occupy in phases.

555, 505 and 605 N. Mathilda Avenue, Sunnyvale, California, which we acquired in December 2012. The project, which is comprised of one operating property and a future development site, is 100% pre-leased. We are currently developing an approximately 587,000  square foot office complex for LinkedIn, Inc. The development project has a total estimated investment of approximately $315.1 million . Construction is currently in process and is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2014.

Columbia Square, Hollywood, California, which we acquired in September 2012. The project is a historical media campus located in the heart of Hollywood, two blocks from the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Vine Street. During 2013, we commenced development on approximately 685,000 rentable square feet of a mixed-use project, which encompasses office, multi-family and retail components that we plan on completing in multiple phases. The project has a total estimated investment of approximately $407.3 million . Our plan is to create a mixed-use campus that preserves the historical character while establishing a new center for entertainment and media companies. Construction is currently in process and is expected to be completed in three phases between the first quarter of 2015 and the second quarter of 2016.

A portion of the project will be a mix of high-end long-term rentals and extended stay apartment homes that will cater to traveling business, entertainment and creative professionals. It will be the first luxury extended stay property to be located in the heart of Hollywood. Completion of the construction of this component is expected for the spring of 2016.

333 Brannan Street, SOMA, San Francisco, California, which we acquired in July 2012. The development project is 100% pre-leased to Dropbox and has a total estimated investment of $98.7 million and is expected to encompass 185,000 rentable square feet upon completion. Construction is currently in process and is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2015.

Crossing/900, Redwood City, California, which we entered into an agreement in June 2013 with a local partner. The project has a total estimated investment of approximately $184.2 million and is expected to encompass approximately 300,000  rentable square feet upon completion. Construction on the building is currently in process and is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2015.

In addition, the Company added Kilroy Mission Bay, San Francisco, California, which we acquired in June 2014 for a total purchase price of $95.0 million to our future development pipeline. The project is a 3.1 acre land parcel in the Mission Bay submarket of San Francisco. The site is fully entitled for the development of a 645,000 rentable square-foot office project, The LEED-Gold designed project will be built in two phases, with the first phase of construction expected to begin by mid 2015.

As of June 30, 2014 , we had additional undeveloped land holdings, located primarily in various submarkets in San Diego County, San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles with an aggregate cost basis of approximately $438.8 million at which we believe we could currently develop approximately 3.0 million rentable square feet, including amounts noted above for Kilroy Mission Bay. In the future, we may also enter into agreements to acquire other development or redevelopment opportunities, either as wholly owned properties or through joint ventures and those agreements typically will be subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions.

This increase in our development activities could continue to cause an increase in the average development asset balances qualifying for interest and other carry cost capitalization in future periods. During the three and six  months ended June 30, 2014 , we capitalized interest on in process development projects, redevelopment projects in lease-up, and development pipeline projects with an aggregate cost basis balance of approximately $1.1 billion at June 30, 2014 , as it was determined these projects qualified for interest and other carry cost capitalization under GAAP. For the three and six  months ended June 30, 2014 , we capitalized $11.8 million and $22.5 million , respectively, of interest to our qualifying development projects. For the three and six  months ended June 30, 2013 , we capitalized $8.5 million and $16.2 million , respectively, of interest to our qualifying redevelopment and development projects. For the three and six  months ended June 30, 2014 , we capitalized $2.6 million and $5.3 million , respectively, of internal costs to our qualifying redevelopment and development projects. For the three and six  months ended June 30, 2013 , we capitalized $2.0 million and $3.4 million , respectively, of internal costs to our qualifying redevelopment and development projects.

Incentive Compensation . Our Executive Compensation Committee determines compensation, including cash bonuses and equity incentives, for our executive officers. For 2014, the annual cash bonus program was structured to allow the Executive Compensation Committee to evaluate a variety of key quantitative and qualitative metrics at the end of the year and make a determination based on the Company’s and management’s overall performance. Our Executive Compensation Committee also grants equity incentive awards from time to time that include performance-based or market-measure based vesting requirements and/or time-based vesting requirements. As a result, accrued incentive compensation and compensation expense for future awards may be affected by our operating and development performance, financial results, stock price, performance against applicable performance-based vesting goals, market conditions and other factors. Consequently, we cannot predict the amounts that will be recorded in future periods related to such incentive compensation.

As of June 30, 2014 , there was approximately $35.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding nonvested shares of restricted common stock, RSUs and stock options issued under share-based compensation arrangements. Those costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.1  years. The $35.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost does not reflect the future compensation cost for any potential share-based awards that may be issued. Share-based compensation expense for potential future awards could be affected by our operating and development performance, financial results, stock price, performance against applicable performance-based vesting goals, market conditions and other factors.

Stabilized Portfolio Information

As of June 30, 2014 , our stabilized portfolio was comprised of 105  office properties encompassing an aggregate of approximately 13.2 million rentable square feet. Our stabilized portfolio includes all of our properties with the exception of undeveloped land, development and redevelopment properties currently under construction or committed for construction, “lease-up” properties and properties held-for-sale. We define lease-up properties as properties recently developed or redeveloped that have not yet reached 95%  occupancy and are within one year following cessation of major construction activities. We define redevelopment properties as those properties for which we expect to spend significant development and construction costs on the existing or acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan, the intended result of which is a higher economic return on the property. Our stabilized portfolio also excludes our future development pipeline, which is comprised of nine  potential development sites, representing 102.9  gross acres of undeveloped land.

At June 30, 2014 , our stabilized portfolio excluded six  development properties currently under construction. There were no operating properties in “lease-up” as of June 30, 2014 .

In December 2013, Scan Group renewed and expanded their lease at Kilroy Airport Center in Long Beach, CA. As of June 30, 2014 revenue recognition had not commenced for the expansion premises. The annualized base rental revenue and rentable square feet presented in this table include the projected annualized base rental revenue of approximately $1.6 million and rentable square feet of approximately 50,000 for the expansion premises.

Current Regional Information

We have generally seen rental rates stabilize and start to improve in many of our submarkets. We have also seen vacancy rates in many of our submarkets starting to decrease.

Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. Our Los Angeles and Ventura Counties stabilized portfolio of 3.5 million rentable square feet was 91.9% occupied with approximately 284,000 available rentable square feet as of June 30, 2014 compared to 93.7% occupied with approximately 219,000 available rentable square feet as of December 31, 2013 . The decrease in occupancy is primarily due to the timing of lease expirations. As of June 30, 2014 , we have leased approximately 115,000 rentable square feet in this region that was vacant at June 30, 2014 . The new leases are scheduled to commence at various time throughout the remainder of 2014.

As of June 30, 2014 , leases representing an aggregate of approximately 162,000 and 297,000 rentable square feet are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2014 and in 2015 , respectively, in this region. The aggregate rentable square feet under the leases scheduled to expire in this region during the remainder of 2014 and in 2015 represents approximately 3.7% of our occupied rentable square feet and 3.5% of our annualized base rental revenues in our total stabilized portfolio as of June 30, 2014 .

San Diego County. Our San Diego County stabilized portfolio of 4.2 million rentable square feet was 92.0% occupied with approximately 340,000 available rentable square feet as of June 30, 2014 compared to 90.8% occupied with approximately 401,000 available rentable square feet as of December 31, 2013 .

As of June 30, 2014 , leases representing an aggregate of approximately 283,000 and 455,000 rentable square feet are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2014 and in 2015 , respectively, in this region. The aggregate rentable square feet under leases scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2014 and in 2015 represents approximately 6.1% of our occupied rentable square feet and 4.7% of our annualized base rental revenues in our total stabilized portfolio as of June 30, 2014 .

Results of Operations

Net Operating Income

Management internally evaluates the operating performance and financial results of our stabilized portfolio based on Net Operating Income from continuing operations. We define “Net Operating Income” as operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements, and other property income) less operating expenses (property expenses, real estate taxes, provision for bad debts, and ground leases).

Net Operating Income from continuing operations is considered by management to be an important and appropriate supplemental performance measure to net income (loss) because we believe it helps both investors and management to understand the core operations of our properties excluding corporate and financing-related costs and noncash depreciation and amortization. Net Operating Income is an unlevered operating performance metric of our properties and allows for a useful comparison of the operating performance of individual assets or groups of assets. This measure thereby provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP income (loss) from operations or net income (loss). In addition, Net Operating Income is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful starting point for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets. Other real estate companies may use different methodologies for calculating Net Operating Income, and accordingly, our presentation of Net Operating Income may not be comparable to other real estate companies. Because of the exclusion of the items shown in the reconciliation below, Net Operating Income should only be used as a supplemental measure of our financial performance and not as an alternative to GAAP income (loss) from operations or net income (loss).

Management further evaluates Net Operating Income by evaluating the performance from the following property groups:

Same Store Properties – which includes the results of all of the office properties that were owned and included in our stabilized portfolio for two comparable reporting periods, i.e., owned and included in our stabilized portfolio as of January 1,  2013 and still owned and included in the stabilized portfolio as of June 30, 2014 ;

Acquisition Properties – which includes the results, from the dates of acquisition through the periods presented, for the four office buildings we acquired during 2013 and the one office building we acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2014 ;

Stabilized Development and Redevelopment Properties – which includes the results generated by two office redevelopment buildings and one office development building that were stabilized in 2013 and one redevelopment property that was stabilized in 2014 following its one year lease-up period; and

Other Properties – which includes the results of properties not included in our stabilized portfolio.

Net Operating Income increased $8.4 million , or 10.1% , for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013 primarily resulting from:

An increase of $4.2 million attributable to the Acquisition Properties;

An increase of $1.8 million attributable to the Same Store Properties primarily resulting from:

An increase in rental income of $5.4 million primarily due to an increase in occupancy and new leases at higher rates;

An increase in tenant reimbursements of $0.4 million primarily due to higher reimbursable property expenses and real estate taxes;


40


A partially offsetting decrease in other property income of $2.7 million . During the three months ended June 30, 2014 we recognized lease termination fees of $2.2 million primarily from one tenant. During the three months ended June 30, 2013 we received a $5.2 million property damage settlement payment at one of our properties;

A partially offsetting increase in property and related expenses of $1.3 million primarily resulting from:

An increase of $1.1 million in property expenses primarily resulting from an increase of $0.7 million to utilities and janitorial services and $0.4 million of non-recurring legal fees;

An increase of $2.9 million attributable to the Stabilized Development and Redevelopment Properties.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased $2.0 million , or 20.3% , for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013 . The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in compensation expense primarily related to the 2014 RSU grant and other professional service costs.

An increase of $5.5 million attributable to the Same Store Properties primarily resulting from:

An increase in rental income of $7.9 million primarily due to an increase in occupancy, new leases at higher rates and an increase in parking income at various properties;

An increase in tenant reimbursements of $1.8 million primarily due to higher reimbursable property expenses and real estate taxes;

A partially offsetting decrease in other property income of $0.8 million . During the six months ended June 30, 2014 we recognized lease termination fees of $4.2 million primarily from one tenant. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 we received a $5.2 million property damage settlement payment at one of our properties;

A partially offsetting increase in property and related expenses of $3.4 million primarily resulting from:

An increase of $2.7 million in property expenses primarily resulting from an increase in certain recurring operating costs of $1.3 million related to utilities, janitorial services, property management expenses and $1.4 million of non-recurring legal fees;

An increase of $0.8 million in real estate taxes primarily as a result of higher taxes at several properties offset by property tax refunds received in 2014 that related to prior periods; and

An increase of $7.1 million attributable to the Stabilized Development and Redevelopment Properties.

Other Expenses and Income

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased $3.1 million , or 16.1% , for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 . The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in compensation expense primarily related to the 2014 RSU grant and other professional service costs.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased by $5.7 million , or 6.1% , for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 , primarily related to the Acquisition Properties and Stabilized Development and Redevelopment Properties.

Capitalized interest and loan fees increased $6.3 million , or 39.0% , for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 . The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in our development and redevelopment activity, which resulted in higher average asset balances qualifying for interest capitalization.

Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company

In this “Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company” section, the term the “Company” refers only to Kilroy Realty Corporation on an unconsolidated basis and excludes the Operating Partnership and all other subsidiaries.

The Company’s business is operated primarily through the Operating Partnership. Distributions from the Operating Partnership are the Company’s source of capital. The Company believes that the Operating Partnership’s sources of working capital, specifically its cash flow from operations and borrowings available under its revolving credit facility, are adequate for it to make its distribution payments to the Company and, in turn, for the Company to make its dividend payments to its preferred and common stockholders for the next twelve months. Cash flows from operating activities generated by the Operating Partnership for the six  months ended June 30, 2014 were sufficient to cover the Company’s payment of cash dividends to its stockholders. However, there can be no assurance that the Operating Partnership’s sources of capital will continue to be available at all or in amounts sufficient to meet its needs, including its ability to make distributions to the Company. The unavailability of capital could adversely affect the Operating Partnership’s ability to make distributions to the Company, which would in turn, adversely affect the Company’s ability to pay cash dividends to its stockholders.

The Company is a well-known seasoned issuer and the Company and the Operating Partnership have an effective shelf registration statement that provides for the public offering and sale from time to time by the Company of its preferred stock, common stock, depositary shares, warrants and guarantees of debt securities and by the Operating Partnership of its debt securities, in each case in unlimited amounts. The Company evaluates the capital markets on an ongoing basis for opportunities to raise capital, and, as circumstances warrant, the Company and the Operating Partnership may issue securities of all of these types in one or more offerings at any time and from time to time on an opportunistic basis, depending upon, among other things, market conditions, available pricing and capital needs. When the Company receives proceeds from the sales of its preferred or common stock, it generally contributes the net proceeds from those sales to the Operating Partnership in exchange for corresponding preferred or common partnership units of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership may use these proceeds and proceeds from the sale of its debt securities to repay debt, including borrowings under its revolving credit facility, to develop new or existing properties, to make acquisitions of properties or portfolios of properties, or for general corporate purposes.

As the sole general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Company does not have significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities and the revenues and expenses of the Company and the Operating Partnership are substantially the same on their respective financial statements. The section entitled “Liquidity and Capital Resources of the

44


Operating Partnership” should be read in conjunction with this section to understand the liquidity and capital resources of the Company on a consolidated basis and how the Company is operated as a whole.

Distribution Requirements

The Company is required to distribute 90% of its taxable income (subject to certain adjustments and excluding net capital gain) on an annual basis to maintain qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and is required to pay income tax at regular corporate rates to the extent it distributes less than 100% of its taxable income (including capital gains). As a result of these distribution requirements, the Operating Partnership cannot rely on retained earnings to fund its on-going operations to the same extent as other companies whose parent companies are not REITs. In addition, the Company may be required to use borrowings under the Operating Partnership’s revolving credit facility, if necessary, to meet REIT distribution requirements and maintain its REIT status. The Company may also need to continue to raise capital in the equity markets to fund the Operating Partnership’s working capital needs, as well as potential developments of new or existing properties or acquisitions.

The Company intends to continue to make, but has not committed to make, regular quarterly cash distributions to common stockholders and common unitholders from cash flow from operating activities. All such distributions are at the discretion of the board of directors. The Company has historically distributed amounts in excess of its taxable income resulting in a return of capital to its stockholders and the Company currently believes it has the ability to maintain distributions at the 2014 levels to meet the REIT distribution requirements for 2014 . In addition, to the extent that the Company cannot successfully complete Section 1031 Exchanges to defer some or all of the taxable gains related to completed or future property dispositions, the Company may choose to distribute a special dividend to avoid having to pay income taxes on such gains. The Company considers market factors and its performance in addition to REIT requirements in determining our distribution levels. Amounts accumulated for distribution to stockholders are invested primarily in interest-bearing accounts and short-term interest-bearing securities, which are consistent with the Company’s intention to maintain its qualification as a REIT. Such investments may include, for example, obligations of the Government National Mortgage Association, other governmental agency securities, certificates of deposit and interest-bearing bank deposits.

On May 22, 2014 , the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.35  per share of common stock payable on July 16, 2014 to stockholders of record on June 30, 2014 and caused a $0.35  per Operating Partnership unit cash distribution to be paid in respect of the Operating Partnership’s common limited partnership interests, including those owned by the Company. The total cash quarterly dividends and distributions paid on July 16, 2014 was $29.7 million .

On May 22, 2014 , the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.42969 per share on the Series G Preferred Stock and $0.39844 per share on the Series H Preferred Stock for the period commencing on and including May 15, 2014 and ending on and including August 14, 2014. The dividend will be payable on August 15, 2014 to Series G Preferred and Series H Preferred stockholders of record on July 31, 2014 . The quarterly dividends payable on August 15, 2014 to Series G and Series H Preferred stockholders is expected to total $3.3 million .

Debt Covenants

The covenants contained within the revolving credit facility and the term loan facility prohibit the Company from paying dividends in excess of 95% of FFO.

Capitalization

As of June 30, 2014 , our total debt as a percentage of total market capitalization was 29.0% and our total debt and liquidation value of our preferred equity as a percentage of total market capitalization was 31.6% , which was calculated based on the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock of $62.28 on June 30, 2014 as shown in the following table:

Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership

In this “Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership” section, the terms “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to the Operating Partnership or the Operating Partnership and the Company together, as the context requires.

General

Our primary liquidity sources and uses are as follows:

Liquidity Sources

Net cash flow from operations;
Borrowings under the Operating Partnership’s revolving credit facility and term loan facility;
Proceeds from additional secured or unsecured debt financings;
Proceeds from public or private issuance of debt or equity securities; and

46


Proceeds from the disposition of selective assets through our capital recycling program.

Liquidity Uses

Property or undeveloped land acquisitions;
Property operating and corporate expenses;
Capital expenditures, tenant improvement and leasing costs;
Debt service and principal payments, including debt maturities;
Distributions to common and preferred security holders;
Development and redevelopment costs; and
Outstanding debt repurchases.

General Strategy

Our general strategy is to maintain a conservative balance sheet with a robust credit profile and to maintain a capital structure that allows for financial flexibility and diversification of capital resources. We manage our capital structure to reflect a long-term investment approach and utilize multiple sources of capital to meet our long-term capital requirements. We believe that our current projected liquidity requirements for the next twelve-month period, as set forth above under the caption “—Liquidity Uses,” will be satisfied using a combination of the liquidity sources listed above. We believe our conservative leverage and staggered debt maturities provide us with financial flexibility and enhances our ability to obtain additional sources of liquidity if necessary, and, therefore, we are well-positioned to refinance or repay maturing debt and to pursue our strategy of seeking attractive acquisition opportunities, which we may finance, as necessary, with future public and private issuances of debt and equity securities.

Liquidity Sources

We continue to be active in the capital markets to finance our acquisition and development activity and our continued desire to improve our debt maturities and lower our overall weighted average cost of capital.

At-The-Market Stock Offering Program

Under our at-the-market stock offering program, which commenced in July 2011, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $200.0 million from time to time in “at-the-market” offerings. The following table sets forth information regarding sales of our common stock under our at-the-market offering program for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 :

The proceeds from the sales were used to fund development and redevelopment expenditures and for general corporate purposes. Since commencement of the program, we have sold 2,553,961 shares of common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of $127.9 million . As of June 30, 2014 , shares of common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $72.1 million remain available to be sold under this program. Actual future sales will depend upon a variety of factors, including but not limited to market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock and our capital needs. We have no obligation to sell the remaining shares available for sale under this program.


47


Capital Recycling Program

In connection with our capital recycling program, we continuously evaluate opportunities for the potential disposition of properties and undeveloped land in our portfolio with the intent of recycling the proceeds generated from the disposition of non-strategic properties or lower return assets into capital used to fund new operating and development acquisitions, to finance development and redevelopment expenditures, to repay long-term debt and for other general corporate purposes. As part of this strategy, we attempt to enter into Section 1031 Exchanges, when possible, to defer some or all of the taxable gains on the sales, if any, for federal and state income tax purposes.

In connection with our capital recycling strategy, during 2014 , we completed the sale of fourteen  properties located in San Diego and one undeveloped land parcel located in San Diego to unaffiliated third parties in three separate transactions for gross sales proceeds totaling approximately $357.3 million of which $75.9 million was held at qualified intermediaries at June 30, 2014 for potential future Section 1031 Exchanges. In July 2014, $15.3 million of the cash proceeds were released from the qualified intermediary. During 2013, we completed the sale of three  office buildings to unaffiliated third parties in three separate transactions, for gross sales proceeds totaling approximately $56.9 million . See “—Factors that May Influence Future Operations” for additional information.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

In June 2014, the Company amended the terms of our unsecured revolving credit facility to increase the borrowing capacity to $600.0 million , extended the maturity to July 2019 and reduced the annual interest rate to LIBOR plus 1.25% . The amendment did not affect the outstanding borrowings under the credit facility. The following table summarizes the balance and terms of our revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 :

As of June 30, 2014 , $6.5 million of deferred financing costs remains to be amortized through the amended maturity date of our unsecured revolving credit facility.


We intend to borrow under the unsecured revolving credit facility from time to time for general corporate purposes, to fund potential acquisitions, to finance development and redevelopment expenditures and to potentially repay long-term debt.

Shelf Registration Statement

As discussed above under “—Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company,” the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer and the Company and the Operating Partnership have an effective shelf registration statement that provides for the public offering and sale from time to time by the Company of its preferred stock, common stock, depository shares and guarantees of debt securities and by the Operating Partnership of its debt securities, in each case in unlimited amounts. The Company evaluates the capital markets on an ongoing basis for opportunities to raise capital, and, as circumstances warrant, the Company and the Operating Partnership may issue securities of all of these types in one or more offerings at any time and from time to time on an opportunistic basis, depending upon, among other things, market conditions, available pricing and capital needs. When the Company receives proceeds from the sales of its preferred or common stock, it generally contributes the net proceeds from those sales to the Operating Partnership in exchange for corresponding preferred or common partnership units of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership may use these proceeds and proceeds from the sale of its debt securities to repay debt, including borrowings under its revolving credit facility, to develop new or existing properties, to make acquisitions of properties or portfolios of properties, or for general corporate purposes.

As of June 30, 2014 , our Series B unsecured senior notes with an aggregate principal balance of $83.0 million is scheduled to mature in August 2014 and our 4.25% Exchangeable Notes with an aggregate principal balance of $172.5 million are scheduled to mature in November 2014. We believe our conservative leverage and staggered debt maturities provide us with financial flexibility and enhances our ability to obtain additional sources of liquidity if necessary, and, therefore, we believe we are well-positioned to refinance or repay maturing debt and to pursue our strategy of seeking attractive acquisition opportunities, which we may finance, as necessary, with future public and private issuances of debt and equity securities. Furthermore, as of June 30, 2014 , we had $510.0 million availability under our $600.0 million bank line to refinance any short term maturities, including the maturing debt noted above.

Potential Future Acquisitions

In 2014, we acquired one office building and one undeveloped land site for approximately $201.1 million in cash. In 2013, we acquired four buildings and two undeveloped land sites for approximately $305.5 million in cash. These transactions were funded through various capital raising activities and, in selected instances, the assumption of existing indebtedness. We expect to continue to monitor our target markets and to pursue the acquisition of value add office properties and development and redevelopment opportunities that add immediate Net Operating Income to our portfolio or play a strategic role in our future growth.

Development and Redevelopment Opportunities

As of June 30, 2014 , we had six development projects under construction. These projects have a total estimated investment of approximately $1.5 billion , of which we have incurred approximately $800.0 million and committed an additional $565.0 million as of June 30, 2014 . In addition, we currently have additional development projects that we may commence construction on in 2014. This total estimated investment is based on market conditions and our anticipation of project approvals. Actual costs could

50


vary depending on changes in circumstances. Ultimate timing of these expenditures may fluctuate given the ultimate progress and leasing status of the projects.

Other Potential Future Liquidity Uses

We remain a disciplined buyer of office properties and continue to focus on value add opportunities in West Coast markets populated by knowledge and creative based tenants in a variety of industries, including technology, media, healthcare, entertainment and professional services. We expect that any material acquisitions or development activities will be funded with borrowings under the revolving credit facility, the public or private issuance of debt or equity securities, the disposition of assets under our capital recycling program or through the assumption of existing debt.

In addition, the amounts we are required to spend on tenant improvements and leasing costs we ultimately incur will depend on actual leasing activity. Tenant improvements and leasing costs generally fluctuate in any given period depending on factors such as the type of property, the term of the lease, the type of the lease, the involvement of external leasing agents and overall market conditions. Capital expenditures may fluctuate in any given period subject to the nature, extent and timing of improvements required to maintain or improve our properties.

Factors That May Influence Future Sources of Capital and Liquidity of the Company and the Operating Partnership

We continue to evaluate sources of financing for our business activities, including borrowings under the revolving credit facility, issuance of public and private equity securities, unsecured debt and fixed-rate secured mortgage financing and proceeds from the disposition of selective assets through our capital recycling program. However, our ability to obtain new financing or refinance existing borrowings on favorable terms could be impacted by various factors, including the state of economic conditions, the state of the credit and equity markets, significant tenant defaults, a decline in the demand for office properties, a decrease in market rental rates or market values of real estate assets in our submarkets and the amount of future borrowings. These events could result in the following:

Decreases in our cash flows from operations, which could create further dependence on the revolving credit facility;

An increase in the proportion of variable-rate debt, which could increase our sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations in the future; and

A decrease in the value of our properties, which could have an adverse effect on the Operating Partnership’s ability to incur additional debt, refinance existing debt at competitive rates or comply with its existing debt obligations.

In addition to the factors noted above, the Operating Partnership’s credit ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies and may be changed or withdrawn by a rating agency in the future if, in its judgment, circumstances warrant. In the event that the Operating Partnership’s credit ratings are downgraded, we may incur higher borrowing costs and may experience difficulty in obtaining additional financing or refinancing existing indebtedness.

For additional information regarding how the foregoing percentages and ratios are calculated under these covenants, and for the definitions of some of the terms used in the foregoing table, please see the revolving credit facility and term loan facility that we have filed with the SEC and the indenture and related officers’ certificates and forms of senior notes that we have filed with the SEC. The Operating Partnership was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of June 30, 2014 . Our current expectation is that the Operating Partnership will continue to meet the requirements of its debt covenants in both the short and long term. However, in the event of a renewed economic slowdown or continued volatility in the credit markets, there is no certainty that the Operating Partnership will be able to continue to satisfy all of the covenant requirements.

Operating Activities

Our cash flows from operating activities depend on numerous factors including the occupancy level of our portfolio, the rental rates achieved on our leases, the collectability of rent and recoveries from our tenants, the level of operating expenses, the impact of property acquisitions and related financing activities, and other general and administrative costs. Our net cash from operating activities decreased by $0.1 million , or 0.1% , for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 primarily as a result of timing differences of the payment of accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities. See additional information under the caption “—Results of Operations.”

Investing Activities

Our cash flows from investing activities is generally used to fund property, development and redevelopment acquisitions, recurring and nonrecurring capital expenditures for our operating properties, and development and redevelopment projects, net of

52


proceeds received from property dispositions. Our net cash used in investing activities increased by $101.2 million , or 490.9% , for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 primarily as a result of the increase in cash paid for acquisitions and expenditures at our operating properties and development and redevelopment properties as compared to the prior year, partially offset by proceeds received from the disposition of twelve properties located in San Diego in the first quarter of 2014.

Financing Activities

Our cash flows from financing activities is principally impacted by our capital raising activities, net of dividends and distributions paid to common and preferred security holders. Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $0.5 million , or 11.5% , for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 .

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2014 and as of the date this report was filed, we did not have any off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements or obligations, including contingent obligations.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: Funds From Operations

We calculate FFO in accordance with the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate and impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets) and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Our calculation of FFO includes the amortization of deferred revenue related to tenant-funded tenant improvements and excludes the depreciation of the related tenant improvement assets.

We believe that FFO is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. The exclusion from FFO of gains and losses from the sale of operating real estate assets allows investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of the assets that form the core of our activity and assists in comparing those operating results between periods. Also, because FFO is generally recognized as the industry standard for reporting the operations of REITs, it facilitates comparisons of operating performance to other REITs. However, other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate FFO, and accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to all other REITs.

Implicit in historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP is the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies using historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, we believe that FFO along with the required GAAP presentations provides a more complete measurement of our performance relative to our competitors and a more appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing and investing activities than the required GAAP presentations alone would provide.

However, FFO should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our operating performance because it does not reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, which are significant economic costs and could materially impact our results from operations.

ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The primary market risk we face is interest rate risk. We seek to mitigate this risk by following established risk management policies and procedures. These policies include maintaining prudent amounts of debt, including a greater amount of fixed-rate debt as compared to variable-rate debt in our portfolio, and may include the periodic use of derivative instruments. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 , we did not have any interest-rate sensitive derivative assets or liabilities.

Information about our changes in interest rate risk exposures from December 31, 2013 to June 30, 2014 is incorporated herein by reference from “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Operating Partnership.”

Market Risk

As of June 30, 2014 , approximately 10.7% of our total outstanding debt of $2.2 billion was subject to variable interest rates. The remaining 89.3% bore interest at fixed rates. All of our interest rate sensitive financial instruments are held for purposes other than trading purposes.

In general, interest rate fluctuations applied to our variable-rate debt will impact our future earnings and cash flows. Conversely, interest rate fluctuations applied to our fixed-rate debt will generally not impact our future earnings and cash flows, unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated and need to be refinanced. However, interest rate fluctuations will impact the fair value of the fixed-rate debt instruments.

We generally determine the fair value of our secured debt, unsecured revolving credit facility, and unsecured term loan facility by performing discounted cash flow analyses using an appropriate market discount rate. We calculate the market rate by obtaining period-end treasury rates for maturities that correspond to the maturities of our fixed-rate debt and then adding an appropriate credit spread based on information obtained from third-party financial institutions. We calculate the market rate of our revolving credit facility and unsecured term loan facility by obtaining the period-end LIBOR rate and then adding an appropriate credit spread based on information obtained from third-party financial institutions. These credit spreads take into account factors, including but not limited to, our credit profile, the tenure of the debt, amortization period, whether the debt is secured or unsecured, and the loan-to-value ratio of the debt to the collateral. These calculations are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate, credit spreads, and estimates of future cash flow. We determine the fair value of the liability component of our 4.25% Exchangeable Notes by performing discounted cash flow analyses using an appropriate market interest rate based upon spreads for our publicly traded debt. We determine the fair value of each of our publicly traded unsecured senior notes based on their quoted trading price at the end of the reporting period.

As of June 30, 2014 , the total outstanding balance of our variable-rate debt was comprised of borrowings on our revolving credit facility of $90.0 million which was indexed to LIBOR plus a spread of 1.25% (weighted average interest rate of 1.41%) and borrowings on our unsecured term loan facility of $150.0 million , which was indexed to LIBOR plus a spread of 1.400% (weighted average interest rate of 1.56%). As of December 31, 2013 , the total outstanding balance of our variable-rate debt was comprised of borrowings on our revolving credit facility of $45.0 million and borrowings on our unsecured term loan facility of $150.0 million, which were indexed to LIBOR plus a spread of 1.45% (weighted average interest rate of 1.62% ) and 1.750% (weighted average interest rate of 1.92%), respectively. Assuming no changes in the outstanding balance of our existing variable-rate debt as of June 30, 2014 , a 100 basis point increase in the LIBOR rate would increase our projected annual interest expense, before the effect of capitalization, by approximately $2.4 million. Comparatively, if interest rates were 100 basis points higher as of December 31, 2013, our projected annual interest expense, before the effect of capitalization, would have been $2.0 million higher.

The total carrying value of our fixed-rate debt, including our 4.25% Exchangeable Notes, was approximately $2.0 billion as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 . The total estimated fair value of our fixed-rate debt was approximately $2.1 billion as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 . For sensitivity purposes, a 100 basis point increase in the discount rate equates to a decrease in the total fair value of our fixed-rate debt of approximately $73.2 million, or 3.5%, as of June 30, 2014 . Comparatively, a 100 basis point increase in the discount rate equates to a decrease in the total fair value of our fixed-rate debt of approximately $85.1 million, or 4.0%, as of December 31, 2013 .

See Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information on the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 .

When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner as it shall require and/or to give the Corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Corporation with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO
SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS OF
KILROY REALTY CORPORATION

Effective as of May 27, 2009, Article III, Section 1 of the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws of Kilroy Realty Corporation is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“The Board of Directors shall consist of a minimum of three (3) and a maximum of thirteen (13) directors. The number of directors shall be fixed or changed from time to time, within the minimum and maximum, by a majority of the entire Board of Directors, provided that the tenure of office of a director shall not be affected by a decrease in the number of directors, and further provided that at least a majority of the directors shall be Independent Directors (as defined in the next sentence). An Independent Director is a director who is not an employee, officer or affiliate of the Corporation or Kilroy Industries or a subsidiary or division thereof, or a relative of a principal executive officer, or who is not an individual member of an organization acting as an advisor, consultant or legal counsel receiving compensation on a continuing basis from the Corporation in addition to director’s fees.

In the event of the occurrence of a vacancy on the Board of Directors which the remaining directors are otherwise permitted to fill under the provisions of the charter of the Corporation and applicable law, the Board of Directors may, in lieu of filling such vacancy, nominate, or authorize a committee or person appointed by the Board of Directors to nominate, a person to be elected by the stockholders to fill such vacancy at an annual meeting or a special meeting called for that purpose.”






AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO
SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS OF
KILROY REALTY CORPORATION

The Second Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended (the “ Bylaws ”), of Kilroy Realty Corporation are hereby amended, effective May 22, 2014, as follows:

1.
The first paragraph of Section 2 of Article II of the Bylaws is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

“Section 2.    An annual meeting of stockholders shall be held during the month of May in each year, on such date during such month as may be determined by resolution adopted by the     Board     of Directors, at which the stockholders shall elect directors to succeed the directors whose terms are expiring, and transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting in accordance with these Bylaws.”

2.
Section 4 of Article II of the Bylaws is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

“Section 4.    (a) When a quorum is present at any meeting of the stockholders, a majority of the votes cast at the meeting shall decide any question brought before such meeting, except as otherwise provided in this Section 4 with respect to the election of directors, unless the question is one upon which by express provision of the Maryland General Corporation Law (“ MGCL ”) or the rules of any securities exchange on which the Corporation’s capital stock is listed or the Corporation’s charter a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question.

    




(b)    Except as otherwise provided in the Corporation’s charter with respect to directors to be elected by the holders of any class or series of preferred stock of the Corporation and in these Bylaws with respect to the filling of vacancies on the Board of Directors, each director shall be elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to such director at any meeting of stockholders duly called and at which a quorum is present and directors are to be elected; provided, however, that the directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at a meeting of the stockholders duly called and at which a quorum is present and directors are to be elected if, in connection with such meeting (i) the Secretary of the Corporation shall have received one or more notices that a stockholder has nominated or proposes to nominate a person or persons for election as a director, which notice(s) purports to be in compliance with the advance notice requirements set forth in Section 2 of Article III of these Bylaws, irrespective of whether the Board of Directors thereafter determines that any such notice(s) is not in compliance with such requirements, and (ii) as of the fourteenth (14th) day preceding the date on which notice of such meeting of the stockholders is first mailed or otherwise given in accordance with applicable law to the stockholders of the Corporation, such nomination or proposed nomination has not been withdrawn by such stockholder and would thereby cause the number of nominees and proposed nominees to exceed the number of directors to be elected at such meeting, as determined by the Secretary of the Corporation, irrespective of whether such nomination or proposed nomination is thereafter withdrawn by such stockholder (a “ Contested Election ”).

If the directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes cast pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, stockholders shall not be permitted to vote “against” any one or more nominees but shall only be permitted to vote “for” one or more nominees or withhold their votes with respect to one or more nominees. For purposes hereof, a majority of the votes cast means the number of votes cast “for” a director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast “against” that director nominee, with abstentions and broker non-votes not counted as a vote cast either “for” or “against” that director nominee.

(c)    If, in any election of directors of the Corporation which is not a Contested Election, an incumbent director does not receive a majority of the votes cast and therefore is not re-elected, such incumbent director shall promptly tender his or her resignation as a director, subject to acceptance thereof by the Board, for consideration by the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee will promptly consider any such tendered resignation and will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors as to whether such tendered resignation should be accepted or rejected, or whether other action should be taken with respect to such offer to resign. Any incumbent director whose tendered resignation is under consideration may not participate in any deliberation or vote of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee or the Board of Directors regarding such tendered resignation. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee and the Board of Directors may consider any factors they deem relevant in deciding whether to accept, reject or take other action with respect to any such tendered resignation.




Within ninety (90) days after the date on which certification of the stockholder vote on the election of directors is made, the Board of Directors will publicly disclose its decision and rationale regarding whether to accept, reject or take other action with respect to the tendered resignation in a press release, a periodic or current report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or by other public announcement. If any director’s tendered resignation is not accepted by the Board of Directors, such director will continue to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is elected and qualified or his or her earlier death, retirement, resignation or removal. If any director’s tendered resignation is accepted by the Board of Directors, then such director will thereupon cease to be a director of the Corporation, and the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may fill the resulting vacancy under the provisions of the charter of the Corporation, Article III, Sections 1 or 2(h) hereof and applicable law or may decrease the size of the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of Article III, Section 1 hereof.”

3.
Section 5 of Article II of the Bylaws is amended to add the following two sentences to the end of Section 5:

“In the election of directors, each share may be voted for as many individuals as there are directors to be elected and for whose election the share is entitled to vote. Stockholders are not entitled to cumulative voting in the election of directors.”

ARTICLE 4.
CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS
Section 4.1.     Capital Contributions of the Partners
At the time of their respective execution of this Agreement, the Partners shall make or shall have made Capital Contributions as set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement. The Partners shall own Partnership Units of the class and in the amounts set forth in Exhibit A and shall have a Percentage Interest in the Partnership as set forth in Exhibit A, which Percentage Interest shall be adjusted in Exhibit A from time to time by the General Partner to the extent necessary to accurately reflect exchanges, redemptions, Capital Contributions, the issuance of additional Partnership Units or similar events having an effect on a Partner’s Percentage Interest. Except as required by law or as otherwise provided in Sections 4.3, 4.4 and 10.5, no Partner shall be required or permitted to make any additional Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership. Unless otherwise specified by the General Partner at the time of the creation of any class of Partnership Interests, the corresponding class of capital stock for any Partnership Units issued shall be REIT Shares.
Section 4.2.     Loans by Third Parties
Subject to Section 4.3, the Partnership may incur Debt, or enter into other similar credit, guarantee, financing or refinancing arrangements for any purpose (including, without limitation, in connection with any further acquisition of Properties) with any Person that is not the General Partner upon such terms as the General Partner determines appropriate; provided , that the Partnership shall not incur any Debt that is recourse to the General Partner, except to the extent otherwise agreed to by the General Partner in its sole discretion.
Section 4.3.     Additional Funding and Capital Contributions
A.     General . The General Partner may, at any time and from time to time, determine that the Partnership requires additional funds (“Additional Funds”) for the acquisition of additional Properties or for such other Partnership purposes as the General Partner may determine. Additional Funds may be raised by the Partnership, at the election of the General

26



Partner, in any manner provided in, and in accordance with, the terms of this Section 4.3. No Person shall have any preemptive, preferential or similar right or rights to subscribe for or acquire any Partnership Interest, except as set forth in this Section 4.3.
B.     General Partner Loans . The General Partner may enter into a Funding Debt, including, without limitation, a Funding Debt that is convertible into REIT Shares, and lend the Additional Funds to the Partnership (a “General Partner Loan”); provided , however , that the General Partner shall not be obligated to lend the net proceeds of any Funding Debt to the Partnership in a manner that would be inconsistent with the General Partner’s ability to remain qualified as a REIT. If the General Partner enters into such a Funding Debt, the General Partner Loan will consist of the net proceeds from such Funding Debt and will be on comparable terms and conditions, including interest rate, repayment schedule and costs and expenses, as shall be applicable with respect to or incurred in connection with such Funding Debt.
C.     Issuance of Additional Partnership Interests . The General Partner may raise all or any portion of the Additional Funds by accepting additional Capital Contributions of cash. The General Partner may also accept additional Capital Contributions of real property or any other non-cash assets. In connection with any such additional Capital Contributions (of cash or property), and subject to Section 16.5 hereof, the General Partner is hereby authorized to cause the Partnership from time to time to issue to Partners (including the General Partner) or other Persons (including, without limitation, in connection with the contribution of property to the Partnership) additional Partnership Units or other Partnership Interests in one or more classes, or one or more series of any of such classes, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, powers, and duties, including rights, powers, and duties senior to then existing Limited Partnership Interests, all as shall be determined by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion subject to Delaware law, and as set forth by amendment to this Agreement, including without limitation, (i) the allocations of items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit to such class or series of Partnership Interests; (ii) the right of each such class or series of Partnership Interests to share in Partnership distributions; (iii) the rights of each such class or series of Partnership Interests upon dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership; and (iv) the right to vote, including, without limitation, the limited partner approval rights set forth in Section 11.2.A hereof; provided , that no such additional Partnership Units or other Partnership Interests shall be issued to the General Partner unless either (a) the additional Partnership Interests are issued in connection with the grant, award, or issuance of shares of the General Partner pursuant to Section 4.3.D below, which shares have designations, preferences, and other rights (except voting rights) such that the economic interests attributable to such shares are substantially similar to the designations, preferences and other rights of the additional Partnership Interests issued to the General Partner in accordance with this Section 4.3.C, or (b) the additional Partnership Interests are issued to all Partners holding Partnership Interests in the same class in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests in such class. In the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Interests pursuant to this Section 4.3.C, the General Partner shall make such revisions to this Agreement (including but not limited to the revisions described in Sections 5.4, 6.2.B, and 8.6) as it determines are necessary to reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Interests.

27



D.     Issuance of REIT Shares or Other Securities by the General Partner . The General Partner shall not issue any additional REIT Shares (other than REIT Shares issued pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof or pursuant to a dividend or distribution (including any stock split) of REIT Shares issued to all of its common stockholders or other capital stock issued to all of its stockholders who hold a class of stock of the General Partner), other shares of capital stock of the General Partner (other than in connection with the acquisition of Partnership Interests in exchange for capital stock of the General Partner which corresponds in ranking to the Partnership’s Partnership Interests being acquired) or New Securities unless the General Partner shall make a Capital Contribution of the net proceeds (including, without limitation, cash and Properties) from the issuance of such additional REIT Shares, other shares of capital stock or New Securities, as the case may be, and from the exercise of the rights contained in such additional New Securities, as the case may be. The General Partner’s Capital Account shall be increased by the amount of cash or the value of Properties so contributed.
E.     Percentage Interest Adjustments in the Case of Capital Contributions for Partnership Units . Upon the acceptance of additional Capital Contributions in exchange for any class or series of Partnership Units, the Percentage Interest related thereto shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of cash and the Agreed Value of the Properties contributed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the additional Capital Contributions are made (an “Adjustment Date”) and the denominator of which is equal to the sum of (i) the Deemed Value of the Partnership Interests of such class or series (computed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Adjustment Date) plus (ii) the aggregate amount of cash and the Agreed Value of the Property contributed to the Partnership on such Adjustment Date in respect of such class or series of Partnership Interests. The Percentage Interest of each other Partner holding Partnership Interests of such class or series not making a full pro rata Capital Contribution shall be adjusted to equal a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the sum of (i) the Deemed Partnership Interest Value of such Limited Partner in respect of such class or series (computed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Adjustment Date) and (ii) the amount of cash and the Agreed Value of the Property contributed by such Partner to the Partnership in respect of such class or series as of such Adjustment Date, and the denominator of which is equal to the sum of (i) the Deemed Value of the Partnership Interests of such class (computed as of the Business Day immediately preceding the Adjustment Date), plus (ii) the aggregate amount of cash and the Agreed Value of the Property contributed to the Partnership on such Adjustment Date in respect of such class or series. Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely for purposes of calculating a Partner’s Percentage Interest pursuant to this Section 4.3.E, (i) in the case of cash Capital Contributions by the General Partner, such Capital Contributions will be deemed to equal the cash contributed by the General Partner plus, in the case of cash contributions funded by an offering of REIT Shares or other shares of capital stock of the General Partner, the offering costs attributable to the cash contributed to the Partnership and (ii) in the case of the contribution of Properties (or any portion thereof) by the General Partner which were acquired by the General Partner in exchange for REIT Shares immediately prior to such contribution, the General Partner shall be issued a number of Partnership Units equal to the number of REIT Shares issued by the General Partner in exchange for such Properties, the Partnership Units held by the other Partners shall not be adjusted and the Partners’ Percentage Interests shall be adjusted accordingly. The General Partner shall promptly give each Partner written notice of its Percentage Interest, as adjusted.

28



Section 4.4.     Stock Incentive Plan
If at any time or from time to time the General Partner sells or issues REIT Shares pursuant to any Stock Incentive Plan, the General Partner shall contribute any proceeds therefrom to the Partnership as an additional Capital Contribution and shall receive an amount of additional Partnership Units equal to the number of REIT Shares so sold or issued. The General Partner’s Capital Account shall be increased by the amount of cash so contributed.
Section 4.5.     Other Contribution Provisions
A.    In the event that any Partner is admitted to the Partnership and is given a Capital Account in exchange for services rendered to the Partnership, such transaction shall be treated by the Partnership and the affected Partner as if the Partnership had compensated such Partner in cash, and the Partner had contributed such cash to the capital of the Partnership. In addition, with the consent of the General Partner, one or more Limited Partners may enter into contribution agreements with the Partnership which have the effect of providing a guarantee of certain obligations of the Partnership.
B.    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article IV, in the event the General Partner has made contributions of cash to the Partnership attributable to the General Partner's receipt of cash pursuant to the exercise of outstanding Rights, if any, the General Partner shall be issued a number of Partnership Units as a result of such contribution equal to the number of REIT Shares sold pursuant to such exercise. In such case or in the event the General Partner makes other contributions to the Partnership in connection with the issuance of REIT Shares after any Rights have become exercisable, the number of Partnership Units held by the Limited Partners shall be increased to equitably offset the dilution resulting from such issuance.
Section 4.6.     No Preemptive Rights
Except to the extent expressly granted by the Partnership pursuant to another agreement, no Person shall have any preemptive, preferential or other similar right with respect to (i) making additional Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership or (ii) issuance or sale of any Partnership Units or other Partnership Interests.
ARTICLE 5.

Unless otherwise expressly provided for herein or in an agreement at the time a new class of Partnership Interests is created in accordance with Article 4 hereof, no Partnership Interest shall be entitled to a distribution in preference to any other Partnership Interest. The General Partner shall take such reasonable efforts, as determined by it in its sole and absolute discretion and consistent with its qualification as a REIT, to cause the Partnership to distribute sufficient amounts to enable the General Partner to pay stockholder dividends that will (a) satisfy the requirements for qualifying as a REIT under the Code and Regulations (“ REIT Requirements ”), and (b) avoid any federal income or excise tax liability of the General Partner, except to the extent that a distribution pursuant to clause (b) would prevent the Partnership from making a distribution to the Holders of Series A Preferred Units in accordance with Section 16.2, Series G Preferred Units in accordance with Section 22.2 or Series H Preferred Units in accordance with Section 23.2.
Section 5.2.     Distributions in Kind
Except as expressly provided herein, no right is given to any Partner to demand and receive property other than cash. The General Partner may determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, to make a distribution in kind to the Partners of Partnership assets, and such assets shall be distributed in such a fashion as to ensure that the fair market value is distributed and allocated in accordance with Articles 5, 6 and 10; provided, however, that, in such case, the General Partners shall distribute only cash to the Series A Limited Partners, the Series G Partner and the Series H Partner.
Section 5.3.     Distributions Upon Liquidation
Proceeds from a Terminating Capital Transaction shall be distributed to the Partners in accordance with Section 13.2.
Section 5.4.     Distributions to Reflect Issuance of Additional Partnership Interests .
In the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Interests to the General Partner or any Additional Limited Partner pursuant to Section 4.3.C or 4.4 hereof, the General Partner shall make such revisions to this Article 5 as it determines are necessary to reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Interests.

other provision of this Article 6 (except Section 6.3.A(i)), if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any fiscal year, each Partner who has a share of the Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Holder’s share of the net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Holder pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3.A(ii) is intended to qualify as a “chargeback of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” within the meaning of Regulation Section 1.704-2(i) which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulation and this Section 6.3.A(ii).
(iii)     Nonrecourse Deductions and Partner Nonrecourse Deductions . Any Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be specially allocated to the Holders in accordance with their respective Percentage Interest in Common Units. Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be specially allocated to the Holder(s) who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable, in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(b)(4) and 1.704-2(i).
(iv)     Qualified Income Offset . If any Holder unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be allocated, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), to the Holder in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Holder as quickly as possible provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3.A(iv) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Holder would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided in this Article 6 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3.A(iv) were not in the Agreement. It is intended that this Section 6.3.A(iv) qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Regulations 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Regulations and this Section 6.3.A(iv).
(v)     Gross Income Allocation . In the event any Holder has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any fiscal year which is in excess of the sum of (a) the amount (if any) such Holder is obligated to restore to the Partnership, and (b) the amount such Holder is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c) or the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Holder shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided , that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3.A(v) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Holder would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided in this Article 6 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3.A(v) and Section 6.3.A(iv) were not in the Agreement.

34



(vi)     Limitation on Allocation of Net Loss . To the extent any allocation of Net Loss would cause or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as to any Holder, such allocation of Net Loss shall be reallocated among the other Holders in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests in Common Units subject to the limitations of this Section 6.3.A(vi).
(vii)     Section 754 Adjustment . To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Holder in complete liquidation of his interest in the Partnership, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Holders in accordance with their interests in the Partnership in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Holders to whom such distribution was made in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.
(viii)     Curative Allocation . The allocations set forth in Sections 6.3.A(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), and (vii) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain regulatory requirements, including the requirements of Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2, the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Holders so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Holder shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Holder if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.
B.    For purposes of determining a Holder’s proportional share of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Partnership within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), each Holder’s interest in Partnership profits shall be such Holder’s Percentage Interest in Common Units.
Section 6.4.     Tax Allocations
A.     In General . Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.4, for income tax purposes each item of income, gain, loss and deduction (collectively, “Tax Items”) shall be allocated among the Holders in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Sections 6.2 and 6.3.
B.     Allocations Respecting Section 704(c) Revaluations . Notwithstanding Section 6.4.A, Tax Items with respect to Partnership property that is contributed to the Partnership by a Partner shall be shared among the Holders for income tax purposes pursuant to Regulations promulgated under Section 704(c) of the Code, so as to take into account the variation, if any, between the basis of the property to the Partnership and its initial Gross Asset Value. With respect to Partnership property that is initially contributed to the Partnership upon its formation pursuant to Section 4.1, such variation between basis and initial Gross Asset Value

35



shall be taken into account under the “traditional method” as described in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b). With respect to properties subsequently contributed to the Partnership, the Partnership shall account for such variation under any method approved under Section 704(c) of the Code and the applicable regulations as chosen by the General Partner; provided , however , contributions by Kilroy Airport Imperial Company shall be shared among the Partners using the “traditional method” as described in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b)(1). In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (b) of the definition of Gross Asset Value (provided in Article 1), (ii) subsequent allocations of Tax Items with respect to such asset shall take account of the variation, if any, between the adjusted basis of such asset and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Section 704(c) of the Code and the applicable regulations consistent with the requirements of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) using any method approved under 704(c) of the Code and the applicable regulations as chosen by the General Partner.
Section 6.5.     Special Allocations
A.    Notwithstanding the provisions in Sections 6.1, 6.2.B.1 and 6.2.B.2, but subject to the other provisions of this Article 6, if the Partnership has positive Adjusted Net Income for a fiscal year, such Adjusted Net Income shall first be allocated to the Holders of Senior Preferred Units under Section 6.2.B.1(e) for such fiscal year, with the remaining items of Net Income or Net Loss allocated to the Partners pursuant to Sections 6.2.B.1 and 6.2.B.2.
B.    Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 6.1, 6.2.B.1 and 6.2.B.2, but subject to Sections 6.3 and 6.5.A, in the event Net Income, Net Loss or items thereof are being allocated to a Partner to offset prior Net Loss, Net Income or items thereof which have been allocated to such Partner, the General Partner shall attempt to allocate such offsetting Net Income, Net Loss or items thereof which are of the same or similar character (including without limitation Section 704(b) book items versus tax items) to the original allocations with respect to such Partner.

42



(ii) modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner, (iii) alter rights of the Partner to receive distributions pursuant to Article 5, Section 13.2.A(4), Article 16 or the allocations specified in Article 6 (except as permitted pursuant to Section 4.3 and Section 7.3.E(2) hereof), (iv) alter or modify the rights to a Redemption or the REIT Shares Amount as set forth in Section 8.6, and related definitions hereof, (v) alter the redemption or exchange rights as set forth in Sections 16.4 and 16.7 hereof, as applicable, or (vi) amend this Section 7.3.F.

In addition, notwithstanding Sections 7.3.B, 7.3.C, 7.3.D and 7.3.E hereof, Section 11.2 of this Agreement shall not be amended, and no action in contravention of Section 11.2 hereof shall be taken, without the Consent of the Limited Partners.
Section 7.4.     Reimbursement of the General Partner
A.    Except as provided in this Section 7.4 and elsewhere in this Agreement (including the provisions of Articles 5 and 6 regarding distributions, payments and allocations to which it may be entitled), the General Partner shall not be compensated for its services as general partner of the Partnership.
B.    Subject to Section 15.11, the General Partner shall be reimbursed on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partner may determine in its sole and absolute discretion, for all expenses it incurs relating to the ownership of interests in and operation of, or for the benefit of, the Partnership.
The Limited Partners acknowledge that the General Partner’s sole business is the ownership of interests in and operation of the Partnership and that such expenses are incurred for the benefit of the Partnership; provided , that the General Partner shall not be reimbursed for expenses it incurs relating to the organization of the Partnership and the General Partner or the initial public offering or subsequent public offerings of REIT Shares, other shares of capital stock or Funding Debt by the General Partner, but shall be reimbursed for expenses it incurs with respect to any other issuance of additional Partnership Interests pursuant to the provisions hereof. Such reimbursements shall be in addition to any reimbursement to the General Partner as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof.
C.    If and to the extent any reimbursements to the General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.4 constitute gross income of the General Partner (as opposed to the repayment of advances made by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership), such amounts shall constitute guaranteed payments within the meaning of Section 707(c) of the Code, shall be treated consistently therewith by the Partnership and all Partners, and shall not be treated as distributions for purposes of computing the Partners’ Capital Accounts.
Section 7.5.     Outside Activities of the General Partner
A.    Except in connection with a transaction authorized in Section 11.2 hereof, without the Consent of the Limited Partners, the General Partner shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct any business, other than in connection with the ownership, acquisition and disposition of Partnership Interests as a General Partner and the management of the business of the Partnership, its operation as a public reporting company with a class (or classes) of securities

43



registered under the Securities Exchange Act, its operation as a REIT and such activities as are incidental to the same. Without the Consent of the Limited Partners, the General Partner shall not, directly or indirectly, participate in or otherwise acquire any interest in any real or personal property, except its General Partner Interest, its minority interest in any Subsidiary Partnership(s) (held directly or indirectly through a Qualified REIT Subsidiary) that the General Partner holds in order to maintain such Subsidiary Partnership’s status as a partnership, and such bank accounts, similar instruments or other short-term investments as it deems necessary to carry out its responsibilities contemplated under this Agreement and the Charter. In the event the General Partner desires to contribute cash to any Subsidiary Partnership to acquire or maintain an interest of 1% or less in the capital of such partnership, the General Partner may acquire such cash from the Partnership in exchange for a reduction in the General Partner’s Partnership Units, in an amount equal to the amount of such cash divided by the Fair Market Value of a REIT Share on the day such cash is received by the General Partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the General Partner may acquire Properties in exchange for REIT Shares, to the extent such Properties are immediately contributed by the General Partner to the Partnership, pursuant to the terms described in Section 4.3.E. Any Limited Partner Interests acquired by the General Partner, whether pursuant to exercise by a Limited Partner of its right of Redemption, or otherwise, shall be automatically converted into a General Partner Interest comprised of an identical number of Partnership Units with the same rights, priorities and preferences as the class or series so acquired.
If, at any time, the General Partner acquires material assets (other than on behalf of the Partnership) the definition of “REIT Shares Amount” shall be adjusted, as reasonably agreed to by the General Partner and the other Limited Partners, to reflect the relative Fair Market Value of a share of capital stock of the General Partner relative to the Deemed Partnership Interest Value of the related Partnership Unit. The General Partner’s General Partner Interest in the Partnership, its minority interest in any Subsidiary Partnership(s) (held directly or indirectly through a Qualified REIT Subsidiary) that the General Partner holds in order to maintain such Subsidiary Partnership’s status as a partnership, and interests in such short-term liquid investments, bank accounts or similar instruments as the General Partner deems necessary to carry out its responsibilities contemplated under this Agreement and the Charter are interests which the General Partner is permitted to acquire and hold for purposes of this Section 7.5.A.
B.    In the event the General Partner exercises its rights under the Charter to purchase REIT Shares or Preferred Shares, then the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to redeem from it a number of Partnership Units of the appropriate class as determined based on, in the case of REIT Shares the REIT Shares Amount equal to the number of REIT Shares so purchased, or in the case of Preferred Shares an equal number of Preferred Units of the class or series which correspond to the class or series, as the case may be, of the Preferred Shares so purchased, in each case on the same terms that the General Partner purchased such REIT Shares or Preferred Shares (as applicable).
Section 7.6.     Contracts with Affiliates
A.    The Partnership may lend or contribute to Persons in which it has an equity investment, and such Persons may borrow funds from the Partnership, on terms and conditions established in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner. The foregoing authority shall not create any right or benefit in favor of any Person.

44



B.    Except as provided in Section 7.5.A, the Partnership may transfer assets to joint ventures, other partnerships, corporations or other business entities in which it is or thereby becomes a participant upon such terms and subject to such conditions consistent with this Agreement and applicable law.
C.    The General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion and without the approval of the Limited Partners, may propose and adopt on behalf of the Partnership employee benefit plans funded by the Partnership for the benefit of employees of the General Partner, the Partnership, Subsidiaries of the Partnership or any Affiliate of any of them in respect of services performed, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of the Partnership, the General Partner, or any of the Partnership’s Subsidiaries. The General Partner also is expressly authorized to cause the Partnership to issue to it Partnership Units corresponding to REIT Shares issued by the General Partner pursuant to its Stock Incentive Plan or any similar or successor plan and to repurchase such Partnership Units from the General Partner to the extent necessary to permit the General Partner to repurchase such REIT Shares in accordance with such plan.
D.    The General Partner is expressly authorized to enter into, in the name and on behalf of the Partnership, a right of first opportunity arrangement and other conflict avoidance agreements with various Affiliates of the Partnership and the General Partner, on such terms as the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, believes are advisable.
Section 7.7.     Indemnification
A.    The Partnership shall indemnify an Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, that relate to the operations of the Partnership as set forth in this Agreement in which any Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, unless it is established that: (i) the act or omission of the Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) the Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. Without limitation, the foregoing indemnity shall extend to any liability of any Indemnitee, pursuant to a loan guaranty or otherwise, for any indebtedness of the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership (including, without limitation, any indebtedness which the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership has assumed or taken subject to), and the General Partner is hereby authorized and empowered, on behalf of the Partnership, to enter into one or more indemnity agreements consistent with the provisions of this Section 7.7 in favor of any Indemnitee having or potentially having liability for any such indebtedness. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard of conduct set forth
 

45



in this Section 7.7.A. The termination of any proceeding by conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or any entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, creates a rebuttable presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified in this Section 7.7.A. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership.
B.    Reasonable expenses incurred by an Indemnitee who is a party to a proceeding may be paid or reimbursed by the Partnership in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding upon receipt by the Partnership of (i) a written affirmation by the Indemnitee of the Indemnitee’s good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Partnership as authorized in Section 7.7.A has been met, and (ii) a written undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay the amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct has not been met.
C.    The indemnification provided by this Section 7.7 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnitee or any other Person may be entitled under any agreement, pursuant to any vote of the Partners, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity.
D.    The Partnership may purchase and maintain insurance, on behalf of the Indemnitees and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by any such Person in connection with the Partnership’s activities, regardless of whether the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.
E.    For purposes of this Section 7.7, the Partnership shall be deemed to have requested an Indemnitee to serve as fiduciary of an employee benefit plan whenever the performance by it of its duties to the Partnership also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, it to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall constitute fines within the meaning of Section 7.7; and actions taken or omitted by the Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan in the performance of its duties for a purpose reasonably believed by it to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which is not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership.
F.    In no event may an Indemnitee subject the Limited Partners to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement.
G.    An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.7 because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.
H.    The provisions of this Section 7.7 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.7
 

46



or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the Partnership’s liability to any Indemnitee under this Section 7.7 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.
I.    If and to the extent any reimbursements to the General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.7 constitute gross income of the General Partner (as opposed to the repayment of advances made by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership) such amounts shall constitute guaranteed payments within the meaning of Section 707(c) of the Code, shall be treated consistently therewith by the Partnership and all Partners, and shall not be treated as distributions for purposes of computing the Partners’ Capital Accounts.
J.    Any indemnification hereunder is subject to, and limited by, the provisions of Section 17-108 of the Act.
K.    In the event the Partnership is made a party to any litigation or otherwise incurs any loss or expense as a result of or in connection with any Partner’s personal obligations or liabilities unrelated to Partnership business, such Partner shall indemnify and reimburse the Partnership for all such loss and expense incurred, including legal fees, and the Partnership Interest of such Partner may be charged therefor. The liability of a Partner under this Section 7.7.K shall not be limited to such Partner’s Partnership Interest, but shall be enforceable against such Partner personally.
Section 7.8.     Liability of the General Partner
A.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, none of the General Partner and any of its officers, directors, agents and employees shall be liable or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Partnership, any Partners or any Assignees, or their successors or assigns, for losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived as a result of errors in judgment or mistakes of fact or law or any act or omission if the General Partner acted in good faith.
B.    The Limited Partners expressly acknowledge that the General Partner is acting for the benefit of the Partnership, the Limited Partners and the General Partner’s stockholders collectively, that the General Partner is under no obligation to give priority to the separate interests of the Limited Partners or the General Partner’s stockholders (including, without limitation, the tax consequences to Limited Partners or Assignees or to stockholders) in deciding whether to cause the Partnership to take (or decline to take) any actions and that the General Partner shall not be liable to the Partnership or to any Limited Partner for monetary damages for losses sustained, liabilities incurred, or benefits not derived by Limited Partners in connection with such decisions, provided , that the General Partner has acted in good faith.

47



D.    Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.8 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability of the General Partner and any of its officers, directors, agents and employees to the Partnership and the Limited Partners under this Section 7.8 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

Upon any transfer of a Partnership Interest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.2, the transferee shall become a
 

58



substitute General Partner for all purposes herein, and shall be vested with the powers and rights of the transferor General Partner, and shall be liable for all obligations and responsible for all duties of the General Partner, once such transferee has executed such instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such admission and to confirm the agreement of such transferee to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement with respect to the Partnership Interest so acquired. It is a condition to any transfer otherwise permitted hereunder that the transferee assumes, by operation of law or express agreement, all of the obligations of the transferor General Partner under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Partnership Interest, and no such transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor General Partner are assumed by a successor corporation by operation of law) shall relieve the transferor General Partner of its obligations under this Agreement without the Consent of the Partners, in their reasonable discretion. In the event the General Partner withdraws from the Partnership, in violation of this Agreement or otherwise, or otherwise dissolves or terminates, or upon the Incapacity of the General Partner, a majority in interest of the remaining Partners may elect to continue the Partnership business by selecting a substitute General Partner in accordance with the Act.
B.    Without limiting Section 16.5 of this Agreement, the General Partner shall not engage in any merger, consolidation or other combination with or into another person, sale of all or substantially all of its assets or any reclassification, recapitalization or change of its outstanding equity interests (each, a “ Termination Transaction ”), unless the Termination Transaction has been approved by a Consent of the Partners and, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.2.C, in connection with which all Common Limited Partners either will receive, or will have the right to elect to receive, for each Partnership Unit an amount of cash, securities, or other property equal to the product of the REIT Shares Amount and the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property paid to a holder of one REIT Share in consideration of one REIT Share pursuant to the terms of the Termination Transaction; provided , that if, in connection with the Termination Transaction, a purchase, tender or exchange offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of the outstanding REIT Shares, each Holder of Common Partnership Units shall receive, or shall have the right to elect to receive, the greatest amount of cash, securities, or other property which such Holder would have received had it exercised its right to Redemption (as set forth in Section 8.6) and received REIT Shares in exchange for its Partnership Units immediately prior to the expiration of such purchase, tender or exchange offer and had thereupon accepted such purchase, tender or exchange offer and then such Termination Transaction shall have been consummated.
C.    Without limiting Section 16.5 of this Agreement, the General Partner may merge, or otherwise combine its assets, with another entity without satisfying the requirements of Section 11.2.B hereof if: (i) immediately after such merger or other combination, substantially all of the assets directly or indirectly owned by the surviving entity, other than Partnership Units held by such General Partner, are owned directly or indirectly by the Partnership or another limited partnership or limited liability company which is the survivor of a merger, consolidation or combination of assets with the Partnership (in each case, the “ Surviving Partnership ”); (ii) the Common Limited Partners own a percentage interest of the Surviving Partnership based on the relative fair market value of the net assets of the Partnership (as determined pursuant to Section 11.2.E) and the other net assets of the Surviving Partnership (as determined pursuant to Section

59



11.2.E) immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction; (iii) the rights preferences and privileges of the Common Limited Partners in the Surviving Partnership are at least as favorable as those in effect immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction and as those applicable to any other limited partners or non-managing members of the Surviving Partnership; and (iv) such rights of the Common Limited Partners include the right to exchange their interests in the Surviving Partnership for at least one of: (a) the consideration available to such Common Limited Partners pursuant to Section 11.2.B or (b) if the ultimate controlling person of the Surviving Partnership has publicly traded common equity securities, such common equity securities, with an exchange ratio based on the relative fair market value of such securities (as determined pursuant to Section 11.2.E) and the REIT Shares.
D.    In connection with any transaction permitted by Section 11.2.B or Section 11.2.C hereof, the General Partner shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to structure such Termination Transaction to avoid causing the Common Limited Partners to recognize gain for federal income tax purposes by virtue of the occurrence of or their participation in such Termination Transaction.
E.    In connection with any transaction permitted by Section 11.2.B or 11.2.C, the relative fair market values shall be reasonably determined by the General Partner as of the time of such transaction and, to the Common extent applicable, shall be no less favorable to the Limited Partners than the relative values reflected in the terms of such transaction.
Section 11.3.     Limited Partners’ Rights to Transfer
A.    Prior to the second anniversary of the closing of the initial public offering of REIT Shares, no Limited Partner shall transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to any transferee without the consent of the General Partner, which consent may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion; provided , however , that any Limited Partner may, at any time (whether prior to or after such second anniversary), without the consent of the General Partner, (i) transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to the General Partner, (ii) transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to an Affiliate, another Original Limited Partner or to an Immediate Family member, subject to the provisions of Section 11.6, or in the case of an Original Limited Partner, to such Original Limited Partner’s shareholders, members, partners or beneficiaries, as the case may be, (iii) transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to a trust for the benefit of a charitable beneficiary or to a charitable foundation, subject to the provisions of Section 11.6, and (iv) subject to the provisions of Section 11.6, pledge (a “Pledge”) all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to a lending institution, which is not an Affiliate of such Limited Partner, as collateral or security for a bona fide loan or other extension of credit, and transfer such pledged Partnership Interest to such lending institution in connection with the exercise of remedies under such loan or extension or credit. Each Limited Partner or Assignee (resulting from a transfer made pursuant to clauses (i)-(iv) of the proviso of the preceding sentence) shall have the right to transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest, subject to the provisions of Section 11.6 and the satisfaction of each of the following conditions (in addition to the right of each such Limited Partner or Assignee to continue to make any such transfer permitted by clauses (i)-(iv) of such proviso without satisfying either of the following conditions):
(a)
General Partner Right of First Refusal . The transferring Partner shall give written notice of the proposed transfer to the General Partner, which notice shall state (i) the identity of the proposed transferee, and (ii) the amount and type of consideration proposed to be received for the transferred Partnership Units. The General Partner shall have ten (10) days upon which to give the transferring Partner notice of its election to acquire the Partnership Units on the proposed terms. If it so elects, it shall purchase the Partnership Units on such terms within ten (10) days after giving notice of such election. If it does not so elect, the transferring Partner may transfer such Partnership Units to a third party, on economic terms no more favorable to the transferee than the proposed terms, subject to the other conditions of this Section 11.3.

60



(b)
Qualified Transferee . Any transfer of a Partnership Interest shall be made only to Qualified Transferees.
It is a condition to any transfer otherwise permitted hereunder that the transferee assumes by operation of law or express agreement all of the obligations of the transferor Limited Partner under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Partnership Interest and no such transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor Partner are assumed by a successor corporation by operation of law) shall relieve the transferor Partner of its obligations under this Agreement without the approval of the General Partner, in its reasonable discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee of any transferred Partnership Interest shall be subject to any and all ownership limitations contained in the Charter, which may limit or restrict such transferee’s ability to exercise its Redemption rights or the exchange rights set forth in Section 16.7, and to the representations set forth in Section 3.4.D. Any transferee, whether or not admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, shall take subject to the obligations of the transferor hereunder. Unless admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, no transferee, whether by a voluntary transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, shall have any rights hereunder, other than the rights of an Assignee as provided in Section 11.5.
B.    If a Limited Partner is subject to Incapacity, the executor, administrator, trustee, committee, guardian, conservator, or receiver of such Limited Partner’s estate shall have all the rights of a Limited Partner, but not more rights than those enjoyed by other Limited Partners, for the purpose of settling or managing the estate, and such power as the Incapacitated Limited Partner possessed to transfer all or any part of his or its interest in the Partnership. The Incapacity of a Limited Partner, in and of itself, shall not dissolve or terminate the Partnership.
C.    The General Partner may prohibit any transfer otherwise permitted under Section 11.3 by a Limited Partner of his or her Partnership Units if, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership, such transfer would require the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act by the Partnership or would otherwise violate any federal or state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Partnership Unit.

61



D.    No transfer by a Limited Partner of his or her Partnership Units (including any Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares pursuant to Section 8.6 and the redemption or exchange rights set forth in Sections 16.4 and 16.7, or any other acquisition of Common Units, Series A Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units or Series H Preferred Units by the General Partner or the Partnership) may be made to any person if (i) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it could result in the Partnership being treated as an association taxable as a corporation, or (ii) such transfer could be treated as effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code.
E.    No transfer of any Partnership Units may be made to a lender to the Partnership or any Person who is related (within the meaning of Section 1.752-4(b) of the Regulations) to any lender to the Partnership whose loan constitutes a Nonrecourse Liability, without the consent of the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion; provided , that as a condition to such consent, the lender will be required to enter into an arrangement with the Partnership and the General Partner to redeem or exchange for the REIT Shares Amount, or the specified amount of REIT Series A Preferred Shares, or as the case may be, any Partnership Units in which a security interest is held simultaneously with the time at which such lender would be deemed to be a partner in the Partnership for purposes of allocating liabilities to such lender under Section 752 of the Code.
F.    No Limited Partner may withdraw from the Partnership except as a result of transfer, Redemption or exchange of Partnership Units pursuant hereto.
Section 11.4.     Substituted Limited Partners
A.    No Limited Partner shall have the right to substitute a transferee as a Limited Partner in his or her place (including any transferee permitted by Section 11.3).
The General Partner shall, however, have the right to consent to the admission of a permitted transferee of the interest of a Limited Partner, other than a transferee in a transfer permitted by Section 11.3 hereof, as a Substituted Limited Partner, pursuant to this Section 11.4, which consent may be given or withheld by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion. The General Partner’s failure or refusal to permit a transferee of any such interests to become a Substituted Limited Partner shall not give rise to any cause of action against the Partnership or any Partner.
B.    A transferee who has been admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner in accordance with this Article 11 shall have all the rights and powers and be subject to all the restrictions and liabilities of a Limited Partner under this Agreement. The admission of any transferee as a Substituted Limited Partner shall be subject to the transferee executing and delivering to the Partnership an acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including without limitation, the provisions of Section 2.4 and such other documents or instruments as may be required to effect the admission, each in form and substance satisfactory

62



to the General Partner) and the acknowledgment by such transferee that each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.4 hereof are true and correct with respect to such transferee as of the date of the transfer of the Partnership Interest to such transferee and will continue to be true to the extent required by such representations and warranties.
C.    Upon the admission of a Substituted Limited Partner, the General Partner shall amend Exhibit A to reflect the name, address, number of Partnership Units, and Percentage Interest of such Substituted Limited Partner and to eliminate or adjust, if necessary, the name, address and interest of the predecessor of such Substituted Limited Partner.
Section 11.5.     Assignees
If the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, does not consent to the admission of any permitted transferee under Section 11.3 as a Substituted Limited Partner, as described in Section 11.4, such transferee shall be considered an Assignee for purposes of this Agreement. An Assignee shall be entitled to all the rights of an assignee of a limited partnership interest under the Act, including the right to receive distributions from the Partnership and the share of Net Income, Net Losses, gain and loss attributable to the Partnership Units assigned to such transferee, the rights to transfer the Partnership Units provided in this Article 11, the right of Redemption provided in Section 8.6 and the right of exchange for REIT Series A Preferred Shares set forth in Section 16.7, but shall not be deemed to be a Holder of Partnership Units for any other purpose under this Agreement, and shall not be entitled to effect a Consent with respect to such Partnership Units on any matter presented to the Limited Partners for approval (such Consent remaining with the transferor Limited Partner). In the event any such transferee desires to make a further assignment of any such Partnership Units, such transferee shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article 11 to the same extent and in the same manner as any Limited Partner desiring to make an assignment of Partnership Units. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, as a condition to becoming an Assignee, any prospective Assignee must first execute and deliver to the Partnership an acknowledgment that each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.4 hereof are true and correct with respect to such prospective Assignee as of the date of the prospective assignment of the Partnership Interest to such prospective Assignee and will continue to be true to the extent required by such representations or warranties.
Section 11.6.     General Provisions
A.    No Limited Partner may withdraw from the Partnership other than as a result of (i) a permitted transfer of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units in accordance with this Article 11 and the transferee(s) of such Units being admitted to the Partnership as a Substituted Limited Partner(s) or (ii) pursuant to the exercise of its right of Redemption of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units under Section 8.6, its right of redemption or exchange of all of such Limited Partner’s Series A Preferred Units under Section 16.7.
B.    Any Limited Partner who shall transfer all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units in a transfer permitted pursuant to this Article 11 where such transferee was admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner or pursuant to the exercise of its rights of Redemption

63



of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units under Section 8.6 or its right of redemption, exchange of all of such Limited Partner’s Series A Preferred Units under Section 16.7 shall cease to be a Limited Partner.
C.    Transfers pursuant to this Article 11 may only be made on the first day of a fiscal quarter of the Partnership, unless the General Partner otherwise agrees.
D.    If any Partnership Interest is transferred, assigned or redeemed during any quarterly segment of the Partnership’s fiscal year in compliance with the provisions of this Article 11 or transferred or redeemed pursuant to Sections 8.6, 16.4, 16.7, 22.4 or 23.4 on any day other than the first day of a Partnership Year, then Net Income, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items attributable to such Partnership Interest for such fiscal year shall be divided and allocated between the transferor Partner and the transferee Partner by taking into account their varying interests during the fiscal year in accordance with Section 706(d) of the Code or as otherwise specified in this Agreement or as otherwise determined by the General Partner (to the extent consistent with Section 706(d) of the Code), using the interim closing of the books method. Except as otherwise required by Section 706(d) of the Code, solely for purposes of making such allocations, each of such items for the calendar month in which the transfer, assignment or redemption occurs shall be allocated to the Person who is a Partner as of midnight on the last day of said month and none of such items for the calendar month in which a redemption occurs will be allocated to the redeeming Partner. All distributions of Available Cash with respect to which the Partnership Record Date is before the date of such transfer, assignment, exchange or redemption shall be made to the transferor Partner, and all distributions of Available Cash thereafter, in the case of a transfer or assignment other than a redemption, shall be made to the transferee Partner.
E.    In addition to any other restrictions on transfer herein contained, including without limitation the provisions of this Article 11 and Section 2.6, in no event may any transfer or assignment of a Partnership Interest by any Partner (including by way of a redemption or exchange for REIT Series A Preferred Shares or any other acquisition of Common Units or Series A Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units and Series H Preferred Units by the Partnership or the General Partner) be made (i) to any person or entity who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own a Partnership Interest; (ii) in violation of applicable law; (iii) except with the consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion, of any component portion of a Partnership Interest, such as the Capital Account, or rights to distributions, separate and apart from all other components of a Partnership Interest; (iv) except with the consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion, if in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership such transfer would cause a termination of the Partnership for federal or state income tax purposes (except as a result of the redemption or exchange for REIT Shares, and a redemption or exchange for Preferred Shares or cash pursuant to Sections 16.4 or 16.7 of all Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners or pursuant to a Termination Transaction expressly permitted under Section 11.2); (v) if in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership such transfer could cause the Partnership to cease to be classified as a partnership for federal or state income tax purposes (except as a result of the redemption or exchange for REIT Shares and a redemption or exchange for Preferred Shares

64



pursuant to Sections 16.4, 16.7, 22.4 or 23.4 of all Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners); (vi) if such transfer would 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 Section 4975(c) of the Code); (vii) if such transfer would, in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership, cause any portion of the assets of the Partnership to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to Department of Labor Regulations Section 2510.2-101; (viii) if such transfer requires the registration of such Partnership Interest or requires the registration of the exchange of such Partnership Interests for any capital stock of the General Partner for which such General Partner Interest may be exchanged pursuant to any applicable federal or state securities laws, (other than pursuant to any applicable registration rights agreement); (ix) if such transfer could be treated as effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market” (or the substantial equivalent thereof) within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code or such transfer could cause the Partnership to become a “Publicly Traded Partnership,” as such term is defined in Sections 469(k)(2) or 7704(b) of the Code; (x) if such transfer subjects the Partnership to be regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 or the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, each as amended; (xi) if the transferee or assignee of such Partnership Interest is unable to make the representations set forth in Section 3.4.D or such transfer could otherwise adversely affect the ability of the General Partner to remain qualified as a REIT; or (xii) if in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership such transfer could adversely affect the ability of the General Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT or, except with the consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion, subject the General Partner to any additional taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code.
F.    The General Partner shall monitor the transfers of interests in the Partnership (including any acquisition of Common Units, Series A Preferred Units, Series G Preferred Units or Series H Preferred Units by the Partnership or the General Partner) to determine (i) if such interests are being traded on an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code, and (ii) whether such transfers of interests would result in the Partnership being unable to qualify for at least one of the “safe harbors” set forth in Regulations Section 1.7704-1 (or such other applicable guidance subsequently published by the IRS setting forth safe harbors under which interests will not be treated as “readily tradable on a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code) including, without limitation, IRS Notice 88-75, to the extent applicable (the “Safe Harbors”). The General Partner shall have authority (but shall not be required to) to take any steps it determines are necessary or appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion to prevent any trading of interests which could cause the Partnership to become a PTP, or any recognition by the Partnership of such transfers, or to insure that at least one of the Safe Harbors is met.
Section 11.7.     Transfer of Pledged Partnership Units
A.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement but subject to Section 11.6 hereof, any or all of the Limited Partnership Interests pledged to the Company, as

65



agent on behalf of the pledgees, pursuant to the Pledge Agreement may be transferred, without the consent of any other Partner, to any Person designated by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion in connection with the exercise by the Company of its rights and remedies under the Pledge Agreement. Any such transferee shall be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, subject to the provisions of Section 11.4 hereof.
B.    Each of the Pledgors hereby constitutes and appoints the Company and authorized officers and attorneys-in-fact of the Company, and each of those acting singly, in each case with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in its name, place and stead to effect any transfer of Partnership Interests pledged pursuant to the Pledge Agreement referred to in Subparagraph A of this Section 11.7. The foregoing power of attorney is hereby declared to be irrevocable and a power coupled with an interest, and it shall survive and not be affected by the subsequent Incapacity of any Pledgor and shall extend to such Pledgor’s heirs, successors, assigns and personal representatives. Each such Pledgor hereby waives any and all defenses which may be available to contest, negate or disaffirm the action of the Company taken in good faith under such power of attorney.

ARTICLE 13.
DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION
Section 13.1.     Dissolution
The Partnership shall not be dissolved by the admission of Substituted Limited Partners or Additional Limited Partners or by the admission of a successor General Partner in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon the withdrawal of the General Partner, any successor General Partner (selected as described in Section 13.1.B below) shall continue the business of the Partnership. The Partnership shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up, upon the first to occur of any of the following (“Liquidating Events”):
A.    the expiration of its term as provided in Section 2.5 hereof;
B.    an event of withdrawal of the General Partner, as defined in the Act, unless, within 90 days after the withdrawal, all of the remaining Partners agree in writing, in their sole and absolute discretion, to continue the business of the Partnership and to the appointment, effective as of the date of withdrawal, of a substitute General Partner;

67



C.    subject to the provisions of Section 7.3.D(1) hereof, an election to dissolve the Partnership made by the General Partner;
D.    entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of the Act;

G.    the Redemption or exchange for REIT Shares or REIT Series A Preferred Shares of all Partnership Units (other than those of the General Partner) pursuant to this Agreement.
Section 13.2.     Winding Up
A.    Upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Partnership shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets, and satisfying the claims of its creditors and Partners. No Partner shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the winding up of the Partnership’s business and affairs. The General Partner (or, in the event there is no remaining General Partner, any Person elected by a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners (the “Liquidator”)) shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and dissolution of the Partnership and shall take full account of the Partnership’s liabilities and assets and the Partnership property shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom (which may, to the extent determined by the General Partner, include shares of stock of the General Partner) shall be applied and distributed in the following order:
(1)
First, to the payment and discharge of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to creditors other than the Partners;
(2)
Second, to the payment and discharge of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the General Partner;
(3)
Third, to the payment and discharge of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the other Partners; and
(4)
The balance, if any, to the Partners in accordance with their Capital Account balances, determined after giving effect to all contributions and distributions for all periods, and after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the Partnership taxable year during which the liquidation occurs (other than those made as a result of the liquidating distribution set forth in this Section 13.2.A(4)).

68



The General Partner shall not receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Article 13 other than reimbursement of its expenses as provided in Section 7.4.
B.    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.2.A hereof which require liquidation of the assets of the Partnership, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, if prior to or upon dissolution of the Partnership the Liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Partnership’s assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Partners, the Liquidator may, in its sole and absolute discretion, defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any assets except those necessary to satisfy liabilities of the Partnership (including to those Partners as creditors) and/or distribute to the Partners, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.2.A hereof, undivided interests in such Partnership assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for liquidation. Any such distributions in kind shall be made only if, in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator, such distributions in kind are in the best interest of the Partners, and shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and management of such properties as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable and to any agreements governing the operation of such properties at such time. The Liquidator shall determine the fair market value of any property distributed in kind using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt.
C.    The Partnership shall be terminated when any notes received in connection with any such sale or disposition referenced in Section 13.1.E above, or in connection with the liquidation of the Partnership have been paid and all of the cash or property available for application and distribution under this Agreement have been applied and distributed in accordance with this Agreement.
Section 13.3.     Compliance with Timing Requirements of Regulations
In the event the Partnership is “liquidated” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), distributions shall be made pursuant to this Article 13 to the General Partner and Limited Partners who have positive Capital Accounts in compliance with Regulations Section 1.704‑1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2). If any Partner has a deficit balance in his or her Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for the taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), such Partner shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Partnership with respect to such deficit, and such deficit shall not be considered a debt owed to the Partnership or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever, except to the extent otherwise agreed to by such Partner and the General Partner. In the discretion of the Liquidator or the General Partner, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the General Partner and Limited Partners pursuant to this Article 13 may be:
A.    distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the General Partner and Limited Partners for the purposes of liquidating Partnership assets, collecting amounts owed to the Partnership, and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the
 

69



Partnership or of the General Partner arising out of or in connection with the Partnership. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the General Partner and Limited Partners from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the Liquidator or the General Partner, in the same proportions and the amount distributed to such trust by the Partnership would otherwise have been distributed to the General Partner and Limited Partners pursuant to this Agreement; or
B.    withheld to establish any reserves deemed necessary or appropriate for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership; and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Partnership; provided that , such withheld amounts shall be distributed to the General Partner and Limited Partners as soon as practicable.

SERIES A PREFERRED UNITS
Section 16.1.     Designation and Number
A series of Partnership Units in the Partnership designated as the 7.45% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units (the “ Series A Preferred Units ”) is hereby established. The number of Series A Preferred Units shall be 1,500,000.

75



Section 16.2.     Distributions
A.     Payment of Distributions . Subject to the rights of Holders of Parity Preferred Units as to the payment of distributions, pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof, Holders of Series A Preferred Units will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Partnership acting through the General Partner, out of Available Cash, cumulative preferential cash distributions at the rate per annum of (x) 7.45% at all times on and after March 5, 2004 and (y) 8.075% at all times before and excluding March 5, 2004, in each case of the original Capital Contribution per Series A Preferred Unit. Such distributions shall be cumulative, shall accrue from the original date of issuance and will be payable (A) quarterly (such quarterly periods for purposes of payment and accrual will be the quarterly periods ending on the dates specified in this sentence and not calendar year quarters) in arrears, on or before February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year and, (B), in the event of (i) an exchange of Series A Preferred Units into REIT Series A Preferred Shares, or (ii) a redemption of Series A Preferred Units, on the exchange date or redemption date, as applicable (each a “ Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date ”), commencing (i) in the case of Series A Preferred Units originally issued on February 6, 1998, on May 15, 1998 and (ii) in the case of all other Series A Preferred Units, on the first of such payment dates to occur following their original date of issuance. The amount of the distribution payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and for any period shorter than a full quarterly period for which distributions are computed, the amount of the distribution payable will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such a 30-day month. If any date on which distributions are to be made on the Series A Preferred Units is not a Business Day (as defined herein), then payment of the distribution to be made on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date. Distributions on the Series A Preferred Units will be made to the Holders of record of the Series A Preferred Units on the relevant record dates, which will be fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date (the “ Preferred Unit Partnership Record Date ”).
B.     Distributions Cumulative . Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions on the Series A Preferred Units will accrue whether or not the terms and provisions of any agreement of the Partnership at any time prohibit the current payment of distributions, whether or not the Partnership has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such of such distributions and whether or not such distributions are authorized. Accrued but unpaid distributions on the Series A Preferred Units will accumulate as of the Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date on which they first become payable. Accumulated and unpaid distributions will not bear interest.
C.     Priority as to Distributions . (i) So long as any Series A Preferred Units are outstanding, no distribution of cash or other property shall be authorized, declared, paid or set apart for payment on or with respect to any Junior Units, nor shall any cash or other property (other than capital stock of the General Partner which corresponds to the class or series of the

76



Partnership Interests being acquired) be set aside for or applied to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition for consideration of any Series A Preferred Units, any Parity Preferred Units (including the Series G Preferred Units and the Series H Preferred Units) or any Junior Units, unless, in each case, all distributions accumulated on all Series A Preferred Units and all classes and series of outstanding Parity Preferred Units as to payment of distributions have been paid in full. The foregoing sentence will not prohibit (a) distributions payable solely in Junior Units, (b) the exchange or conversion of Junior Units or Parity Preferred Units (including the Series G Preferred Units and the Series H Preferred Units) into Junior Units, or (c) the redemption of Partnership Interests corresponding to REIT Series A Preferred Shares, Parity Preferred Stock with respect to distributions or Junior Stock to be purchased by the General Partner pursuant to the Charter with respect to the General Partner’s common stock and comparable charter provisions with respect to other classes or series of capital stock of the General Partner to preserve the General Partner’s status as a real estate investment trust, provided that such redemption shall be upon the same terms as the corresponding purchase pursuant to Article IV.E. of the Charter or such other comparable provisions.
(ii)    So long as distributions have not been paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not irrevocably so set apart) upon the Series A Preferred Units, the Series G Preferred Units and the Series H Preferred Units, all distributions authorized and declared on the Series A Preferred Units and all classes or series of outstanding Parity Preferred Units with respect to distributions shall be authorized and declared so that the amount of distributions authorized and declared per Series A Preferred Unit and such other classes or series of Parity Preferred Units shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued distributions per Series A Preferred Unit and such other classes or series of Parity Preferred Units (which shall not include any accumulation in respect of unpaid distributions for prior distribution periods if such class or series of Parity Preferred Units do not have cumulative distribution rights) bear to each other.
(iii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, distributions on Partnership Interests held by either (a) the General Partner or (b) any other Holder of Partnership Interest in the Partnership, in each case ranking junior to or on parity with the Series A Preferred Units, the Series G Preferred Units and the Series H Preferred Units may be made, without preserving the priority of distributions described in Sections 16.2.C(i) and (ii), but only to the extent such distributions are required to preserve the real estate investment trust status of the General Partner and in the case of any Holder other than the General Partner only to the extent required by the Partnership Agreement.
D.     No Further Rights . Holders of Series A Preferred Units shall not be entitled to any distributions, whether payable in cash, other property or otherwise, in excess of the full cumulative distributions described herein.

77



Section 16.3.     Liquidation Proceeds
A.    Upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Partnership, distributions on the Series A Preferred Units shall be made in accordance with Article 13 of the Partnership Agreement.
B.     Notice . Written notice of any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Partnership, stating the payment date or dates when, and the place or places where, the amounts distributable in such circumstances shall be payable, shall be given by (i) fax and (ii) by first class mail, postage pre-paid, not less than 30 and not more that 60 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record Holder of the Series A Preferred Units at the respective addresses of such Holders as the same shall appear on the transfer records of the Partnership.
C.     No Further Rights . After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the Holders of Series A Preferred Units will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Partnership.
D.     Consolidation, Merger or Certain Other Transactions . The consolidation or merger or other business combination of the Partnership with or into any corporation, trust or other entity (or of any corporation, trust or other entity with or into the Partnership) shall not be deemed to constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Partnership.
Section 16.4.     Redemption
A.     Right of Optional Redemption . The Series A Preferred Units may not be redeemed prior to September 30, 2009. On or after such date, the Partnership shall have the right to redeem the Series A Preferred Units, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ written notice, at a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to the Capital Account balance of the Holder of Series A Preferred Units (the “ Redemption Price ”); provided , however , that no redemption pursuant to this Section 16.4 will be permitted if the Redemption Price does not equal or exceed the original Capital Contribution of such Holder plus the cumulative Priority Return to the redemption date to the extent not previously distributed. If fewer than all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units are to be redeemed, the Series A Preferred Units to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata (as nearly as practicable without creating fractional units).
B.     Limitation on Redemption . (i) The Redemption Price of the Series A Preferred Units (other than the portion thereof consisting of accumulated but unpaid distributions) will be payable solely out of the sale proceeds of capital stock of the General Partner, which will be contributed by the General Partner to the Partnership as additional capital contribution, or out of the sale of limited partner interests in the Partnership and from no other source. For purposes of the preceding sentence, “capital stock” means any equity securities (including Common Stock and Preferred Stock (as such terms are defined in the Charter)), shares, participation 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.

78



(ii)    The Partnership may not redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units unless all accumulated and unpaid distributions have been paid on all Series A Preferred Units for all quarterly distribution periods terminating on or prior to the date of redemption.
C.     Redemption at the Option of the Series A Preferred Limited Partners . Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary but expressly subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 16.4.C., so long as any Series A Preferred Units remain outstanding, in the event of the occurrence of a Covered Transaction (defined below), the Partnership shall offer to redeem, on the date such Covered Transaction is completed or occurs, all of the Series A Preferred Units outstanding at the Redemption Price, payable in cash, provided, however, that the Company shall only be obligated to effect such redemption if the redemption of the Series A Preferred Units was elected in writing by the holders of not less than a majority of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Units in accordance with this Section 16.4.C. The payment of any portion of the Redemption Price shall be subject to the restrictions or limitations imposed upon such payment by applicable law or otherwise under this Agreement or the terms applicable to any Parity Preferred Units. The Partnership shall give written notice of a Covered Transaction to each of the respective holders of record of the Series A Preferred Units, at their respective addresses as they appear on the transfer records of the Partnership, by the earlier of (i) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the completion or occurrence of a Covered Transaction, if such completion or occurrence is known, or (ii) as soon as practicable after the completion or occurrence of a Covered Transaction. Such notice shall not set forth any non-public information concerning such Covered Transaction. Each of the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Units shall have until 5:00 p.m. (PST) on the fifteenth (15 th ) day following receipt of such notice from the Partnership, to give the Partnership notice of such holder’s election that the Series A Preferred Units be redeemed. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, with respect to a Covered Transaction that arises under clause (c) of the definition of Covered Transaction set forth below, in the event that the Company so fails to qualify as a real estate investment trust for any reason other than an affirmative election by the Company not to qualify, (a) the Partnership shall give notice of the occurrence of a Covered Transaction to each of the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Units within 15 days after discovery of such failure to qualify, (b) each of the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Units shall have until 5:00 p.m. (PST) on the fifteenth (15 th ) day following receipt of such notice from the Partnership, to give the Partnership notice of such holder’s election that the Series A Preferred Units be redeemed and (c) if the holders of not less than a majority of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Units have elected to have the Series A Preferred Units redeemed, the Series A Preferred Units shall be redeemed on a date not later than 45 days following the date of discovery of the Company’s failure to qualify. For purposes of this Section 16.4.C, the term “ Covered Transaction ” shall mean (a) the Company’s completion of a “Rule 13e-3 transaction” (as defined in Rule 13e-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”)) in which, as a result of such

79



transaction, the Company’s common stock is no longer registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, except that this clause (a) shall not apply to any involuntary delisting of the Company’s common stock from the New York Stock Exchange or any national securities exchange (as defined in the Exchange Act), (b) the completion of any transaction or series of transactions that would result in a Reorganization Event (defined below) of the Company or the Partnership or (c) the Company’s failure (or election not) to qualify as a real estate investment trust as defined in Section 856 (or any successor section) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
For purposes of this Section 16.4.C, the term “Reorganization Event” shall mean (x) any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership or the Company, as the case may be, to an entity that is not an Affiliate of the Company; or (y) any consolidation, amalgamation, merger, business combination, share exchange, reorganization or similar transaction involving the Partnership or the Company, as the case may be, pursuant to which the Partners of the Partnership or the stockholders of the Company, as the case may be, immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction will own less than a majority of the equity interests in the entity surviving such transaction; provided , however , a Reorganization Event shall not include any transaction contemplated by clauses (x) or (y) of this definition if the surviving entity has unsecured debt outstanding which is rated at least the lowest credit rating level established as investment grade by at least two of Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investor Service and Fitch Ratings (it being understood that as of the date of this Agreement the lowest investment grade rating of Standard & Poor’s is BBB-, the lowest investment grade rating of Moody’s is Baa3 and the lowest investment grade rating of Fitch Ratings is BBB-) and such rating has been reaffirmed in light of the contemplated transaction.
D.     Procedures for Redemption . (i) Notice of redemption will be (i) faxed, and (ii) mailed by the Partnership, by certified mail, postage prepaid, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the respective Holders of record of the Series A Preferred Units at their respective addresses as they appear on the records of the Partnership. No failure to give or defect in such notice shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series A Preferred Units except as to the Holder to whom such notice was defective or not given. In addition to any information required by law, each such notice shall state: (a) the redemption date, (b) the Redemption Price, (c) the aggregate number of Series A Preferred Units to be redeemed and if fewer than all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units are to be redeemed, the number of Series A Preferred Units to be redeemed held by such Holder, which number shall equal such Holder’s pro rata share (based on the percentage of the aggregate number of outstanding Series A Preferred Units that the total number of Series A Preferred Units held by such Holder represents) of the aggregate number of Series A Preferred Units to be redeemed, (d) the place or places where such Series A Preferred Units are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, (e) that distributions on the Series A Preferred Units to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on such redemption date and (f) that payment of the Redemption Price will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Series A Preferred Units.

80



(ii)    If the Partnership gives a notice of redemption in respect of Series A Preferred Units (which notice will be irrevocable) then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, the Partnership will deposit irrevocably in trust for the benefit of the Series A Preferred Units being redeemed funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give irrevocable instructions and authority to pay such Redemption Price to the Holders of the Series A Preferred Units upon surrender of the Series A Preferred Units by such Holders at the place designated in the notice of redemption. On and after the date of redemption, distributions will cease to accumulate on the Series A Preferred Units or portions thereof called for redemption, unless the Partnership defaults in the payment thereof. If any date fixed for redemption of Series A Preferred Units is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date fixed for redemption. If payment of the Redemption Price is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by the Partnership, distributions on such Series A Preferred Units will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the applicable Redemption Price.
Section 16.5.     Voting Rights
A.     General . Holders of the Series A Preferred Units will not have any voting rights or right to consent to any matter requiring the consent or approval of the Limited Partners, except as set forth below and in Section 7.3.F.
B.     Certain Voting Rights . So long as any Series A Preferred Units remains outstanding, the Partnership shall not, without the affirmative vote of the Holders of at least two-thirds of the Series A Preferred Units outstanding at the time (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of Partnership Interests ranking prior to the Series A Preferred Units with respect to payment of distributions or rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up or reclassify any Partnership Interests of the Partnership into any such Partnership Interest, or create, authorize or issue any obligations or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such Partnership Interests, (ii) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of any Parity Preferred Units or reclassify any Partnership Interest of the Partnership into any such Partnership Interest or create, authorize or issue any obligations or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such Partnership Interests but only to the extent such Parity Preferred Units are issued to an affiliate of the Partnership, other than the General Partner to the extent the issuance of such interests was to allow the General Partner to issue corresponding preferred stock to persons who are not affiliates of the Partnership or (iii) either consolidate, merge into or with, or convey, transfer or lease its assets substantially as an entirety to, any corporation or other entity or amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Partnership Agreement (including, without limitation, this Article 16), whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, in each case in a manner that would materially and adversely affect the powers, special rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of the Series

81



A Preferred Units or the Holders thereof; provided , however , that with respect to the occurrence of any event set forth in (iii) above, so long as (a) the Partnership is the surviving entity and the Series A Preferred Units remain outstanding with the terms thereof unchanged, or (b) the resulting, surviving or transferee entity is a partnership, limited liability company or other pass-through entity organized under the laws of any state and substitutes the Series A Preferred Units for other interests in such entity having substantially the same terms and rights as the Series A Preferred Units, including with respect to distributions, voting rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, then the occurrence of any such event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, privileges or voting powers of the Holders of the Series A Preferred Units; and provided further , that any increase in the amount of Partnership Interests or the creation or issuance of any other class or series of Partnership Interests, in each case ranking (a) junior to the Series A Preferred Units with respect to payment of distributions and the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, or (b) on a parity to the Series A Preferred Units with respect to payment of distributions and the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up to the extent such Partnership Interest are not issued to an affiliate of the Partnership, other than the General Partner to the extent the issuance of such interests was to allow the General Partner to issue corresponding preferred stock to persons who are not affiliates of the Partnership, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.
Section 16.6.     Transfer Restrictions
The Series A Preferred Units shall be subject to the provisions of Article 11 hereof; provided , however , that the Series A Preferred Units shall not be subject to the right of first refusal of the General Partner as described in Section 11.3 hereof and any Affiliate of the Series A Contributor to whom the Series A Preferred Units are assigned (in whole or in part) in accordance with this Agreement (other than the right of first refusal) shall be admitted to the Partnership as a Substitute Limited Partner. No transfer of Series A Preferred Units is permitted, without the consent of the General Partner which consent may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion, if such transfer would result in more than four partners holding all outstanding Series A Preferred Units within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)(i); provided , however , that the General Partner’s consent may not be unreasonably withheld if (a) such transfer would not result in more than ten partners holding all outstanding Series A Preferred Units within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)(i) and (b) the General Partner is relying on a provision other than Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h) to avoid classification of Operating Partnership as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Code Section 7704 (a “PTP”). In addition, no transfer may be made to any person if such transfer would cause the exchange of the Series A Preferred Units for REIT Series A Preferred Shares, as provided herein, to be required to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws.
Section 16.7.     Exchange Rights
A.     Right to Exchange . (i) Series A Preferred Units will be exchangeable in whole but not in part unless expressly otherwise provided herein at anytime on or after
 

82



September 30, 2015, at the option of 51% of the Holders of all outstanding Series A Preferred Units, for authorized but previously unissued REIT Series A Preferred Shares at an exchange rate of one REIT Series A Preferred Share from the General Partner for one Series A Preferred Unit, subject to adjustment as described below (the “Exchange Price”), provided that the Series A Preferred Units will become exchangeable at any time, in whole but not in part unless expressly otherwise provided herein, at the option of 51% of the Holders of all outstanding Series A Preferred Units for REIT Series A Preferred Shares if (y) at any time full distributions shall not have been timely made on any Series A Preferred Unit with respect to six (6) prior quarterly distribution periods, whether or not consecutive, provided , however , that a distribution in respect of Series A Preferred Units shall be considered timely made if made within two (2) Business Days after the applicable Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date if at the time of such late payment there shall not be any prior quarterly distribution periods in respect of which full distributions were not timely made or (z) upon receipt by a Holder or Holders of Series A Preferred Units of (A) notice from the General Partner that the General Partner or a Subsidiary of the General Partner has taken the position that the Partnership is, or upon the consummation of an identified event in the immediate future will be, a PTP and (B) an opinion rendered by outside nationally recognized independent counsel familiar with such matters addressed to a Holder or Holders of Series A Preferred Units, that the Partnership is or likely is, or upon the occurrence of a defined event in the immediate future will be or likely will be, a PTP. In addition, the Series A Preferred Units may be exchanged for REIT Series A Preferred Shares, in whole but not in part unless expressly otherwise provided herein, at the option of 51% of the Holders of all outstanding Series A Preferred Units prior to September 30, 2015 and after February 6, 2001 if such Holders of a Series A Preferred Units shall deliver to the General Partner either (i) a private letter ruling addressed to such Holder of Series A Preferred Units or (ii) an opinion of independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the General Partner based on the enactment of temporary or final Treasury Regulations or the publication of a Revenue Ruling, in either case to the effect that an exchange of the Series A Preferred Units at such earlier time would not cause the Series A Preferred Units to be considered “stock and securities” within the meaning of section 351(e) of the Code for purposes of determining whether the Holder of the Series A Preferred Units is an “investment company” under section 721(b) of the Code if an exchange is permitted at such earlier date. Furthermore, the Series A Preferred Units, if the Series A Contributor so determines, may be exchanged in whole but not in part (regardless of whether held by the Series A Contributor) for REIT Series A Preferred Shares (but only if the exchange in whole may be accomplished consistently with the ownership limitations set forth under the Series A Articles Supplementary (as defined herein), taking into account exceptions thereto) if at any time (i) the Partnership takes the position that assets and income of the Partnership are such as would not permit the Partnership to satisfy the income and assets tests of Section 856 of the Code if the Partnership were a real estate investment trust within the meaning of the Code or (ii) any Holder of the Series A Preferred Units shall deliver to the Partnership and the Company an opinion of independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that the assets and income of the Partnership are such as would not permit the Partnership to satisfy the income and assets tests of Section 856 of the Code if the Partnership were a real estate investment trust within the meaning of the Code.

83



(ii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 16.7.A(i), if an Exchange Notice (as defined herein) has been delivered to the General Partner, then the General Partner may, at its option, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Exchange Notice, elect to cause the Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units for cash in an amount equal to the original Capital Contribution per Series A Preferred Unit and all accrued and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of redemption. If the General Partner elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units, the number of Series A Preferred Units held by each Holder to be redeemed shall equal such Holder’s pro rata share (based on the percentage of the aggregate number of outstanding Series A Preferred Units that the total number of Series A Preferred Units held by such Holder represents) of the aggregate number of Series A Preferred Units being redeemed.
(iii)    In the event an exchange of all Series A Preferred Units pursuant to Section 16.7.A would violate the provisions on ownership limitation of the General Partner set forth in Section 7 of the Articles Supplementary to the Charter with respect to REIT Series A Preferred Shares (the “Series A Articles Supplementary”), each Holder of Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to exchange, pursuant to the provisions of Section 16.7.B, a number of Series A Preferred Units which would comply with the provisions on the ownership limitation of the General Partner set forth in such Section 7 of the Series A Articles Supplementary, with respect to such Holder, and any Series A Preferred Units not so exchanged (the “Excess Units”) shall be redeemed by the Partnership for cash in an amount equal to the original Capital Contribution per Excess Unit, plus any accrued and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of redemption subject to any restriction thereon contained in any debt instrument or agreement of the Partnership. In the event an exchange would result in Excess Units, as a condition to such exchange, each Holder of such units agrees to provide representations and covenants reasonably requested by the General Partner relating to (i) the widely held nature of the interests in such Holder, sufficient to assure the General Partner that the Holder’s ownership of stock of the General Partner (without regard to the limits described above) will not cause any individual to own in excess of 6.2% of the stock of the General Partner; and (ii) to the extent such Holder can so represent and covenant without obtaining information from its owners (other than one or more direct or indirect parent corporations, limited liability companies or partnerships and not the holders of any interests in any such parent), the Holder’s ownership of tenants of the Partnership and its affiliates. For purposes of determining the number of Excess Units under this Section 16.7.A(iii), the “Beneficial Ownership Limit” and “Constructive Ownership Limit” set forth in the Series A Articles Supplementary shall be deemed to be 0.8 percentage points less than the limits set forth in the Series A Articles Supplementary. To the extent the General Partner would not be able to pay the cash set forth above in exchange for the Excess Units, and to the extent consistent with the Charter, the General Partner agrees that it will grant to the Holders of the Series A Preferred Units exceptions to the Beneficial Ownership Limit and Constructive Ownership Limit set forth in the Series A Articles Supplementary sufficient to allow such Holders to exchange all of their Series A Preferred Units for REIT Series A Preferred Stock, provided such Holders furnish to the General Partner representations acceptable to the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion which assure the General Partner that such exceptions will not jeopardize the General Partner’s tax status as a REIT for purposes of federal and applicable state law. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Series

84



A Limited Partner shall be entitled to effect an exchange of Series A Preferred Units for REIT Series A Preferred Shares to the extent that ownership or right to acquire such shares would cause the Partner or any other Person or, in the opinion of counsel selected by the General Partner, may cause the Partner or any other Person, to violate the restrictions on ownership and transfer of REIT Series A Preferred Shares set forth in the Charter. To the extent any such attempted exchange for REIT Series A Preferred Shares would be in violation of the previous sentence, it shall be void ab initio and such Series A Limited Partner shall not acquire any rights or economic interest in the REIT Series A Preferred Shares otherwise issuable upon such exchange.
(iv)    The redemption of Series A Preferred Units described in Section 16.7.A(ii) and (iii) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 16.4.B(i) and Section 16.4.D(ii); provided , however , that the term “Redemption Price” in such Sections 16.4.B(i) and 16.4.D(ii) shall be read to mean the original Capital Contribution per Series A Preferred Unit being redeemed as set forth on Exhibit A plus all accrued and unpaid distributions to the redemption date.
B.     Procedure for Exchange and/or Redemption of Series A Preferred Units .
(i)    Any exchange shall be exercised pursuant to a notice of exchange (the “ Exchange Notice ”) delivered to the General Partner by the Partners representing at least 51% of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units (or by Series A Contributor in the case of an exchange pursuant to the last sentence of Section 16.7.A.(i) hereof) by (a) fax and (b) by certified mail postage prepaid. The General Partner may effect any exchange of Series A Preferred Units, or exercise its option to cause the Partnership to redeem any portion of the Series A Preferred Units for cash pursuant to Section 16.7.A(ii) or redeem Excess Units pursuant to Section 16.7.A(iii), by delivering to each Holder of record of Series A Preferred Units, within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of the Exchange Notice, (a) if the General Partner elects to cause the Partnership to acquire any of the Series A Preferred Units then outstanding, (1) certificates representing the Series A Preferred Shares being issued in exchange for the Series A Preferred Units of such Holder being exchanged and (2) a written notice (a “ Redemption Notice ”) stating (A) the redemption date, which may be the date of such Redemption Notice or any other date which is not later than sixty (60) days following the receipt of the Exchange Notice, (B) the redemption price, (C) the place or places where the Series A Preferred Units are to be surrendered and (D) that distributions on the Series A Preferred Units will cease to accumulate on such redemption date, or (b) if the General Partner elects to cause the Partnership to redeem all of the Series A Preferred Units then outstanding in exchange for cash, a Redemption Notice. Series A Preferred Units which are redeemed shall be deemed canceled (and any corresponding Partnership Interest represented thereby deemed terminated) on the redemption date. Holders of Series A Preferred Units shall deliver any canceled certificates representing Series A Preferred Units which have been exchanged or redeemed to the office of General Partner (which currently is located at 12200 West Olympic Boulevard, Suite 200, Los Angeles, California 90064) within ten (10) Business Days of the exchange or redemption with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any and all Series A Preferred Units to be exchanged for REIT Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 16.7 shall be so exchanged in a single

85



transaction at one time. As a condition to exchange, the General Partner may require the Holders of Series A Preferred Units to make such representations as may be reasonably necessary for the General Partner to establish that the issuance of REIT Series A Preferred Shares pursuant to the exchange shall not be required to be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. Any Series A Preferred Shares issued pursuant to this Section 16.7 shall be delivered as shares which are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or restriction other than those provided in the Charter, the By-Laws of the General Partner, the Securities Act and relevant state securities or blue sky laws.
The certificates representing the REIT Series A Preferred Shares issued upon exchange of the Series A Preferred Units shall contain the following legend:
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR (B) IF THE CORPORATION HAS BEEN FURNISHED WITH A SATISFACTORY OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY, OR OTHER EVIDENCE SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, THAT SUCH TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION IS EXEMPT FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE ACT AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS THEREUNDER.
(ii)    In the event of an exchange of Series A Preferred Units for REIT Series A Preferred Shares, an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid distributions to the date of exchange on any Series A Preferred Units tendered for exchange shall (i) accrue on the REIT Series A Preferred Shares into which such Series A Preferred Units are exchanged, and (ii) continue to accrue on such Series A Preferred Units, which shall remain outstanding following such exchange, with the General Partner as the Holder of such Series A Preferred Units. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in no event shall a Holder of a Series A Preferred Unit that was validly exchanged for REIT Series A Preferred Shares pursuant to this section (other than the General Partner now holding such Series A Preferred Unit), receive a distribution out of Available Cash of the Partnership, if such Holder, after exchange, is entitled to receive a distribution out of Available Cash with respect to the REIT Series A Preferred Shares for which such Series A Preferred Unit was exchanged or redeemed. Further for purposes of the foregoing, in the event of an exchange of Series A Preferred Units for REIT Shares, if the accrued and unpaid distributions per Series A Preferred Unit is not the same for each Series A Preferred Unit, the accrued and unpaid distributions per Series A Preferred Unit for each such Series A Preferred Unit shall be equal to the greatest amount of such accrued and unpaid distributions per Series A Preferred Unit on any such unit.

86



(iii)    Fractional REIT Series A Preferred Shares are not to be issued upon exchange but, in lieu thereof, the General Partner will pay a cash adjustment based upon the fair market value of the REIT Series A Preferred Shares on the day prior to the exchange date as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the General Partner.
C.     Adjustment of Exchange Price . In case the General Partner shall be a party to any transaction (including, without limitation, a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, tender offer for all or substantially all of the General Partner’s capital stock or sale of all or substantially all of the General Partner’s assets), in each case as a result of which the REIT Series A Preferred Shares will be converted into the right to receive shares of capital stock, other securities or other property (including cash or any combination thereof), each Series A Preferred Unit will thereafter be exchangeable into the kind and amount of shares of capital stock and other securities and property receivable (including cash or any combination thereof) upon the consummation of such transaction by a Holder of that number of REIT Series A Preferred Shares or fraction thereof into which one Series A Preferred Unit was exchangeable immediately prior to such transaction. The General Partner may not become a party to any such transaction unless the terms thereof are consistent with the foregoing.
Section 16.8.     No Conversion Rights
The Holders of the Series A Preferred Units shall not have any rights to convert such shares into shares of any other class or series of stock or into any other securities of, or interest in, the Partnership.
Section 16.9.     No Sinking Fund
No sinking fund shall be established for the retirement or redemption of Series A Preferred Units.

87



the same proportion and in the same manner as the Partnership Units held and voted by John B.

Section 18.2.     Redemption Rights
A.    Pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof, each Common Limited Partner has the right, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 8.6 hereof, to require the Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the Partnership Units held by such Common Limited Partner for the Cash Amount or, at the General Partner’s election, the REIT Shares Amount (the “ Redemption Right ”), provided , however , that such Redemption Right shall not be available to any Investor with respect to any Partnership Unit until a holding period for any such Partnership Unit has occurred ending on the date which is the later of (i) October 31, 2000 (or, in the case of the Investors set forth on Schedule 1, January 31, 1999) and (ii) one year from the date of issuance of such Partnership Unit to such Investor.

Kilroy, Jr. (the “ Transfer ”), in one or more transactions, of a total of at least 70% of the Equity Interests (as defined below) beneficially owned by John B.

If any Partnership Units of an Investor shall be pledged in accordance with the terms of Section 11.3.A(iv) hereof and the pledgee exercises its remedies under such pledge by acceleration, notice of intent to foreclose or other exercise, the Partnership may either:
(i)    purchase the indebtedness, security interest in the Partnership Units and any other rights with respect to the Partnership Units held by the pledgee for the amounts owed to pledgee or any lesser amount agreed to by such pledgee and the Partnership or
(ii)    after a foreclosure of such pledgee’s security interest in the Partnership Units, at any time until the later of (A) October 31, 2000 or (B) the date that such Partnership Units become subject to the Redemption Right, acquire the Partnership Units from such pledgee for an amount equal to the Deemed Partnership Interest Value for such Partnership Units.
The pledgee shall give the Partnership any notice of default or delinquency given to such Investor and no less than 30 days written notice of any proposed public or private sale, transfer or exchange of such Partnership Units.

Distributions shall accrue daily, shall accrue and be cumulative from and including March 27, 2012 and will be payable (i) quarterly (such quarterly periods for purposes of payment and accrual will be the quarterly periods ending on the dates specified in this sentence and not calendar quarters) in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing May 15, 2012, and (ii) in the event of a redemption of Series G Preferred Units, on the redemption date (each a “ Series G Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date ”). If any date on which distributions are to be made on the Series G Preferred Units is not a Business Day, then payment of the distribution to be made on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay). The distributions payable on any Series G Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date shall include distributions accrued to but excluding such Series G Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date.
B.     Distributions Cumulative . Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions on the Series G Preferred Units will accrue and be cumulative from March 27, 2012, whether or not the terms and provisions set forth in Section 22.2.C at any time prohibit the current payment of distributions, whether or not the Partnership has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such distributions and whether or not such distributions are authorized. No interest, or sum in lieu of interest, will be payable in respect of any distribution payment or payments on the Series G Preferred Units which may be in arrears, and the General Partner, as holder of the Series G Preferred Units, will not be entitled to any distributions, whether payable in cash, securities or other property, in excess of full cumulative distributions described above. Any distribution payment made on the Series G Preferred Units will first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid distribution due with respect to the Series G Preferred Units.
C.     Priority as to Distributions .
(i)    Except as provided in Section 22.2.C(ii) below, unless full cumulative distributions for all past Series G Preferred Unit Distribution Periods on the Series G Preferred Units have been or contemporaneously are authorized and paid or authorized and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for such payment, no distributions (other than in Common Units or any other class or series of Partnership Interests ranking junior to the Series G Preferred Units as to distributions and as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Partnership) shall be authorized or paid or set aside for payment nor shall any other distribution be authorized or made on Common Units or any other

91



classes or series of Partnership Interests ranking junior to or on parity with the Series G Preferred Units as to distributions or as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership nor shall any Common Units or any other classes or series of Partnership Interests ranking junior to or on parity with the Series G Preferred Units as to distributions or as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any amounts be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such units) by the Partnership (except by conversion into or exchange for Common Units or any other classes or series of Partnership Interests ranking junior to the Series G Preferred Units as to distributions and as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Partnership and except for purchases of Series G Preferred Units in connection with the General Partner’s purchase of REIT Series G Preferred Shares pursuant to the Series G Articles Supplementary for the purpose of preserving the General Partner’s qualification as a REIT for federal and/or state income tax purposes, or purchases of other Partnership Interests in connection with the General Partner’s purchase of corresponding stock pursuant to comparable provisions of the Charter with respect to other classes or series of the General Partner’s stock). With respect to the Series G Preferred Units, all references in this Article 22 to “past Series G Preferred Unit Distribution Periods” shall mean, as of any date, Series G Preferred Unit Distribution Periods ending on or prior to such date, and with respect to any other class or series of Partnership Units ranking on a parity as to distributions with the Series G Preferred Units, all references in this Article 22 to “past distribution periods” (and all similar references) shall mean, as of any date, distribution periods with respect to such other class or series of Partnership Units ending on or prior to such date.
(ii)    When full cumulative distributions for all past Series G Preferred Unit Distribution Periods are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not set apart) upon the Series G Preferred Units and when full cumulative distributions for all past distribution periods are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not set apart) upon the units of any other Parity Preferred Units ranking on a parity as to distributions with the Series G Preferred Units, then all distributions authorized on the Series G Preferred Units and any other outstanding classes or series of Parity Preferred Units ranking on a parity as to distributions with the Series G Preferred Units shall be declared pro rata so that the amount of distributions authorized per unit on the Series G Preferred Units and such other classes or series of Parity Preferred Units ranking on a parity as to distributions with the Series G Preferred Units shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accumulated and unpaid distributions per unit on the Series G Preferred Units and such other classes or series of Parity Preferred Units ranking on a parity as to distributions with the Series G Preferred Units (which, in the case of any such other classes or series of Parity Preferred Units ranking on a parity as to distributions with the Series G Preferred Units, shall not include any accumulation in respect of unpaid distributions for past distribution periods if such other Parity Preferred Units ranking on a parity as to distributions with the Series G Preferred Units does not have a cumulative distribution) bear to each other.

Section 22.4.     Redemption .
A.     Redemption . If the General Partner elects to redeem any of the REIT Series G Preferred Shares in accordance with the terms of the Series G Articles Supplementary, the Partnership shall, on the date set for redemption of such REIT Series G Preferred Shares, redeem the number of Series G Preferred Units equal to the number of REIT Series G Preferred Shares for which the General Partner has given notice of redemption pursuant to Subparagraph F of Article FIRST of the Series G Articles Supplementary, at a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to the product of (i) the number of Series G Preferred Units being redeemed, and (ii) an amount equal to the sum of $25.00, any Preferred Distribution Shortfall per Series G Preferred Unit, and any accrued and unpaid distribution per Series G Preferred Unit for the current distribution period.
B.     Procedures for Redemption . The following provisions set forth the procedures for redemption:
(i)    Notice of redemption will be given by the General Partner to the Partnership concurrently with the notice of the General Partner sent to the holders of its REIT Series G Preferred Shares in connection with such redemption. Such notice shall state: (a) the redemption date; (b) the number of Series G Preferred Units to be redeemed; (c) the redemption price and whether or not accrued and unpaid distributions will be payable; (d) the place or places where the Series G Preferred Units are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; (e) the procedures that the General Partner must follow to surrender the certificates for redemption,

The Partnership shall have the right to accept such offer until the Trustee has sold the Partnership Units held in the Trust pursuant to subsection (c)(iv). Upon such a sale to the Partnership, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary in the Partnership Units sold shall terminate and the Trustee shall distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the Purported Record Transferee and any distributions held by the Trustee with respect to such Partnership Units shall thereupon be paid to the Charitable Beneficiary.

(vi)    By written notice to the Trustee, the Partnership shall designate one or more nonprofit organizations to be the Charitable Beneficiary of the interest in the Trust such that (i) the Partnership Units held in the Trust would not violate the restrictions set forth in subsection (b)(i) in the hands of such Charitable Beneficiary.

(d)     Remedies For Breach . If the General Partner shall at any time determine in good faith that a Transfer or other event has taken place in violation of subsection (b) or that a Person intends to acquire, has attempted to acquire or may acquire beneficial ownership (determined without reference to any rules of attribution) or Constructive Ownership of any Partnership Units of the Partnership in violation of subsection (b), the General Partner shall take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect or to prevent such Transfer, including, but not limited to, causing the Partnership to redeem Partnership Units, refusing to give effect to such Transfer on the books of the Partnership or instituting proceedings to enjoin such Transfer; provided , however , that any Transfers (or, in the case of events other than a Transfer, ownership or Constructive Ownership) in violation of subsection (b)(i), shall automatically result in the transfer to a Trust as described in subsection (b)(ii).

(e)     Notice of Restricted Transfer . Any Person who acquires or attempts to acquire or own Partnership Units in violation of subsection (b), or any Person who is a Purported Beneficial Transferee such that an automatic transfer to a Trust results under subsection (b)(ii), shall immediately give written notice to the Partnership of such event and shall provide to the Partnership such other information as the Partnership may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such Transfer or attempted Transfer on such Person’s compliance with subsection (b)(i).

(f)     Owners Required To Provide Information . Prior to the Restriction Termination Date each Person who is a beneficial owner or Constructive Owner of Partnership Units and each Person who is holding Partnership Units for a beneficial owner or Constructive Owner shall provide to the Partnership such information that the Partnership may request, in good faith, in order to determine the Partnership’s status as a partnership (as opposed to a corporation) or the General Partner’s status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

(g)     Remedies Not Limited . Nothing contained in this Exhibit E shall limit the authority of the General Partner to take such other action as it deems necessary or advisable to protect the Partnership and the interests of its Partners by preservation of the Partnership’s status as a partnership (as opposed to a corporation) or the General Partner’s status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

(h)     Ambiguity . In the case of an ambiguity in the application of any of the provisions of this Exhibit E, including any definition contained in subsection (a), the General Partner shall have the power to determine the application of the provisions of this Exhibit E with respect to any situation based on the facts known to it. In the event that a provision of this Exhibit E requires an action by the General Partner and Exhibit E fails to provide specific guidance with respect to such

E-5



action, the General Partner shall have the power to determine the action to be taken so long as such action is not contrary to the provisions of Exhibit E. Absent a decision to the contrary by the General Partner (which the General Partner may make in its sole and absolute discretion), if a Person would have (but for the remedies set forth in subsection (b)) acquired Constructive Ownership of Partnership Units in violation of subsection (b)(i), such remedies (as applicable) shall apply first to the Partnership Units which, but for such remedies, would have been actually owned by such Person, and second to Partnership Units which, but for such remedies, would have been Constructively Owned (but not actually owned) by such Person, pro rata among the Persons who actually own such Partnership Units based upon the relative number of the Partnership Units held by each such Person.

c. an Ownership Interest that is owned, actually or constructively, by or for a trust is considered as owned by its beneficiaries in proportion to the actuarial interest of such beneficiaries (provided, however, that in the case of a “grantor trust” the Ownership Interest will be considered as owned by the grantors);
d. if ten percent (10%) or more in value of the stock in a corporation is owned, actually or constructively, by or for any person, such person shall be considered as owning the Ownership Interest that is owned, actually or constructively, by or for such corporation in that proportion which the value of the stock which such person so owns bears to the value of all the stock in such corporation;

h. an Ownership Interest that is constructively owned by a person by reason of the application of the rules described in paragraphs (a) through (g) above shall, for purposes of applying paragraphs (a) through (g), be considered as actually owned by such person provided, however, that (i) an Ownership Interest constructively owned by an individual by reason of paragraph (a) shall not be considered as owned by him for purposes of again applying paragraph (a) in order to make another the constructive owner of such Ownership Interest, (ii) an Ownership Interest constructively owned by a partnership, estate, trust, or corporation by reason of the application of paragraphs (e) or (f) shall not be considered as owned by it for purposes of applying paragraphs (b), (c), or (d) in order to make another the constructive owner of such Ownership Interest, (iii) if an Ownership Interest may be considered as owned by an individual under paragraphs (a) or (g), it shall be considered as owned by him under paragraph (g) and (iv) for purposes of the above described rules, an S corporation shall be treated as a partnership and any stockholder of the S corporation shall be treated as a partner of such partnership except that this rule shall not apply for purposes of determining whether stock in the S corporation is constructively owned by any person.

36



interest and a participation in such Letter of Credit, any drawing thereunder, and the obligations of the Borrower hereunder with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto, in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Bank’s ratable share thereof (based upon the ratio its Revolving Commitment bears to the aggregate of all Revolving Commitments). Upon any change in any of the Revolving Commitments in accordance herewith, there shall be an automatic adjustment to such participations to reflect such changed shares.

If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have so made such share available to the Administrative Agent, such Bank and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate and the interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.7 and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Rate.

Each such Note shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit A- 2 hereto, as applicable, with

37



appropriate modifications to reflect the fact that it evidences solely Loans of the relevant Class for such Bank. Each reference in this Agreement to the “ Note ” of such Bank shall be deemed to refer to and include any or all of such Notes, as the context may require.
(c)    Upon receipt of each Bank’s Note, the Administrative Agent shall forward such Note to such Bank. Each Bank shall record the date, amount, type and maturity of each Loan made by it and the date and amount of each payment of principal made by the Borrower with respect thereto, and may, if such Bank so elects in connection with any transfer or enforcement of its Note, endorse on the schedule forming a part thereof appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing information with respect to each such Loan then outstanding; provided that the failure of any Bank to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes. Each Bank is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Borrower so to endorse its Notes and to attach to and make a part of its Notes a continuation of any such schedule as and when required.
(d)    There shall be no more than ten (10) Euro-Dollar Revolving Borrowings, and no more than four (4) Euro-Dollar Term Loan Borrowings, outstanding at any one time pursuant to this Agreement.

Such interest shall be payable in arrears for each Interest Period on the last day thereof.
(b)    Each Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin for Euro-Dollar Loans for the applicable Class of Loans plus the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate for such day. Such interest shall be payable in arrears for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first day thereof.
Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate ” applicable to any Interest Period means a rate per annum equal to the quotient obtained (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) by dividing (i) the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate by (ii) 1.00 minus the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage.

38



Federal Reserve System (or any successor) for determining the maximum reserve requirement for a member bank of the Federal Reserve System in New York City with deposits exceeding five billion dollars in respect of “Eurocurrency liabilities” (or in respect of any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on Euro-Dollar Loans is determined or any category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans by a non-United States office of any Bank to United States residents). The Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate shall be adjusted automatically on and as of the effective date of any change in the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage.
The “ London Interbank Offered Rate ” applicable to a particular Interest Period shall mean the London interbank offered rate as administered by ICE Benchmark Administration (or any other Person that takes over the administration of such rate for U.S. Dollars for a period equal in length to such Interest Period as displayed on pages LIBOR01 or LIBOR02 of the Reuters screen that displays such rate (or, in the event such rate does not appear on a Reuters page or screen, on any successor or substitute page on such screen that displays such rate, or on the appropriate page of such other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; in each case the “ LIBO Screen Rate ”) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period; provided that, if the LIBO Screen Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and provided, further, if the LIBO Screen Rate shall not be available at such time for such Interest Period (an “ Impacted Interest Period ”) with respect to U.S. Dollars then the London Interbank Offered Rate shall be the Interpolated Rate, provided, that, if any Interpolated Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement.
The “ Quotation Date ” means, in relation to any period for which an interest rate is to be determined, two (2) Euro-Dollar Business Days before the first day of that period, unless market practice differs in the relevant interbank market for a currency, in which case the Quotation Date for that currency will be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with market practice in the London interbank market (and if quotations would normally be given by leading banks in the London interbank market on more than one day, the Quotation Date will be the last of those days).
(c)    Subject to Section 8.1, each Money Market LIBOR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period (determined in accordance with Section 2.7(b) as if the related Money Market LIBOR Borrowing were a Committed Euro-Dollar Borrowing) plus (or minus) the Money Market Margin quoted by the Revolving Credit Bank making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.3. Each Money Market Absolute Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the Money Market Absolute Rate quoted by the Revolving Credit Bank making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.3.

(f)    The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Banks of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
Section 2.8     Fees .
(a)     Facility Fee .
(i)    During the Availability Period, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Credit Banks ratably in proportion to their respective Revolving Commitments, a facility fee on the full Revolving Loan Amount at the respective percentages per annum based upon the Borrower’s Credit Rating in accordance with the following table:
Borrower’s Credit Rating
Facility Fee
A-/A3 or better
0.125
%
BBB+/Baa1
0.150
%
BBB/Baa2
0.200
%
BBB-/Baa3
0.250
%
<BBB-/Baa3 or unrated
0.300
%
(ii)    The facility fee shall be payable at all times (quarterly in arrears), irrespective of usage, on each January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 during the Availability Period and any extensions thereof. Any change in the Borrower’s Credit Rating causing it to move into a different range on the table shall effect an immediate change in the applicable percentage per annum. If there are only two Borrower’s Credit Ratings, it will be the higher of the two. In the event that the Borrower’s Credit Ratings are more than one level apart, the median rating will be used. If there are three Borrower’s Credit Ratings, and such ratings are split, then, if the difference between the highest and lowest is one level apart, it will be the highest of the three, but if the difference is more than one level, the rating will be the average of the two highest (or if such average is not a recognized category, then the second highest rating will be used). If there is only one Borrower’s Credit Rating, the facility fee shall be based on such rating. Should Borrower (or General Partner) lose its Investment Grade Rating from both S&P and Moody’s, the facility fee will revert to the unrated portion of the table above. Upon reinstatement of such Investment Grade Rating from either S&P or Moody’s, the facility fee will revert to the rated pricing table above.
(b)     Letter of Credit Fee . During the Availability Period, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Revolving Credit Banks in proportion to their interests in respect of undrawn issued Letters of Credit, a fee (a “ Letter of Credit Fee ”) in

40



an amount, provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, equal to a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin with respect to Euro-Dollar Revolving Loans on the daily average of such issued and undrawn Letters of Credit, which fee shall be payable, in arrears, on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 during the Availability Period. From the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, such fee shall be increased to be equal to two percent (2%) per annum on the daily average of such issued and undrawn Letters of Credit.
(c)     Fronting Bank Fee . The Borrower shall pay any Fronting Bank, for its own account, a fee (a “ Fronting Bank Fee ”) at a rate per annum equal to 0.125% of the issued and undrawn amount of the Letters of Credit issued by such Fronting Bank (or such lesser amount as agreed to by the applicable Fronting Bank), in no cases less than $500, in addition to each Fronting Bank’s customary administrative charges related to the issuance or amendment of, or drawing upon, Letters of Credit, which fee shall be in addition to and not in lieu of, the Letter of Credit Fee. The Fronting Bank Fee shall be payable in arrears on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 during the Availability Period.
(d)     Fees Non-Refundable . All fees set forth in this Section 2.8 shall be deemed to have been earned on the date payment is due in accordance with the provisions hereof and shall be non-refundable. The obligation of the Borrower to pay such fees in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks regardless of whether any Loans are actually made.
Section 2.9     Mandatory Termination . (a) Unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 6.2, the term (the “ Availability Period ”) of the Revolving Commitments shall commence on the Closing Date and terminate and expire, and the Borrower shall return or cause to be returned all Letters of Credit to the Fronting Banks, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.
(b)    The Term Loans shall terminate and expire on the Term Loan Maturity Date.
Section 2.10     Mandatory Prepayment . (a) In the event that an Unencumbered Asset Pool Property (or any Separate Parcel that originally formed a part of an Unencumbered Asset Pool Property) is sold, transferred or released from the restrictions of Section 5.11 hereof, the Borrower shall, simultaneously with such sale, transfer or release, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the net proceeds of such sale or transfer, in the event of a sale or transfer, or such lesser amount as shall be required for the Borrower to remain in compliance with this Agreement, in the event of such a sale, transfer or release. Such prepayments shall be applied to either the Revolving Credit Facility or the Term Loan Facility as directed by the Borrower; provided, however, that if Borrower fails to give such direction, such prepayments shall first be applied to the Revolving Credit Facility, and then to the Term Loan Facility if such prepayment amounts are needed for the Borrower to remain in compliance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a simultaneous like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code will not be subject to the provisions of this Section 2.10(a), provided that the exchanged property has qualified as a New Acquisition and any cash “boot” associated therewith shall be applied to prepayment of the Loans or such lesser amount of such cash “boot” as shall be required for the Borrower to remain in compliance with this Agreement. Sale of an

41



Unencumbered Asset Pool Property (or any Separate Parcel that originally formed a part of a Unencumbered Asset Pool Property) in violation of this Section 2.10 shall constitute an Event of Default.
(b)    In the event that the Unsecured Debt Ratio is not maintained as of the last day of a calendar quarter, either (i) the Borrower will add a Real Property Asset to the Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties in accordance with this Agreement which, on a pro forma basis ( i.e . the Unsecured Debt Ratio shall be recalculated to include such Real Property Asset as though the same had been an Unencumbered Asset Pool Property for the entire applicable period) would result in compliance with the Unsecured Debt Ratio, or (ii) the Borrower shall prepay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Banks, an amount necessary to cause the Unsecured Debt Ratio to be in compliance within ninety (90) days of the date on which the Unsecured Debt Ratio failed to be maintained. Such prepayments shall be applied to either the Revolving Credit Facility or the Term Loan Facility as directed by the Borrower; provided, however, that if Borrower fails to give such direction, such prepayments shall first be applied to the Revolving Credit Facility, and then to the Term Loan Facility if such prepayment amounts are needed for the Borrower to remain in compliance with this Agreement. Failure by the Borrower to comply with the Unsecured Debt Ratio within ninety (90) days of the date of such non-compliance shall be an Event of Default.
Section 2.11     Optional Prepayments .
(a)    The Borrower may, upon at least one Domestic Business Day’s notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Banks, any Base Rate Borrowing or Loans bearing interest at the Offered Rate in whole at any time, or from time to time in part in amounts aggregating One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), or an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof or, if less, the outstanding principal balance, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment. The Borrower may, from time to time on any Domestic Business Day so long as prior notice is given to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day on which the Borrower intends to make such prepayment, prepay any Swingline Loans in whole or in part in amounts aggregating $100,000 or a higher integral multiple of $100,000 (or, if less, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Loans then outstanding) by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment. Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans of the several applicable Banks (or the Swingline Lender in the case of Swingline Loans) included in such Borrowing.
(b)    Except as provided in Section 8.2, the Borrower may not prepay all or any portion of the principal amount of any Euro-Dollar Loan prior to the maturity thereof unless the Borrower shall also pay any applicable expenses pursuant to Section 2.13. Any such prepayment shall be upon at least one (1) Euro-Dollar Business Day’s notice to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Banks of receipt of any such notice on the same Euro-Dollar Business Day as received by it. Any notice of prepayment delivered pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) shall set forth the amount of such prepayment which is applicable to any Loan made for working capital purposes. Each such optional prepayment shall

42



be in the amounts set forth in Section 2.11(a) above and shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans of the applicable Banks included in such Borrowing.
(c)    The Borrower may not prepay any Money Market Loan.
(d)    The Borrower may, upon at least one (1) Domestic Business Day’s notice to the Administrative Agent (by 2:00 p.m. New York time on such Domestic Business Day), reimburse the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Fronting Banks for the amount of any drawing under a Letter of Credit in whole or in part in any amount.
(e)    The Borrower may at any time return any undrawn Letter of Credit to a Fronting Bank in whole, but not in part, and such Fronting Bank shall give the Administrative Agent and each of the Revolving Credit Banks notice of such return.
(f)    The Borrower may at any time and from time to time cancel all or any part of the unused Commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility in amounts aggregating One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), or an integral multiple of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof, by the delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Banks of a notice of cancellation upon at least three (3) Domestic Business Days’ notice to Administrative Agent and such Revolving Credit Banks, whereupon, all or such portion of the Revolving Commitments shall terminate as to such Revolving Credit Banks, pro rata on the date set forth in such notice of cancellation, and, if there are any Revolving Loans then outstanding in an aggregate amount which exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments (after giving effect to any such reduction), the Borrower shall prepay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Revolving Credit Banks, all or such portion of the Revolving Loans outstanding on such date in accordance with the requirements of Sections 2.11(a) and (b). In no event shall the Borrower be permitted to cancel Revolving Commitments for which a Letter of Credit has been issued and is outstanding unless the Borrower returns (or causes to be returned) such Letter of Credit to the applicable Fronting Bank. The Borrower shall be permitted to designate in its notice of cancellation which Revolving Loans, if any, are to be prepaid. A reduction of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.11(f) shall not effect a reduction in the Swingline Commitment (unless so elected by the Borrower) until the aggregate Revolving Commitments have been reduced to an amount equal to the Swingline Commitment.
(g)    Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment or cancellation or a return of a Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly, and in any event within one (1) Domestic Business Day, notify each Revolving Credit Bank of the contents thereof and of such Revolving Credit Bank’s ratable share (if any) of such prepayment or cancellation and such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower.
(h)    Any amounts so prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.11 with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility only may be reborrowed subject to the other terms of this Agreement. In the event that the Borrower elects to cancel all or any portion of the Revolving Commitments and the Swingline Commitment pursuant to Section 2.11(f) hereof, such cancellation shall be irrevocable and such amounts may not be reborrowed.
Section 2.12     General Provisions as to Payments .

43



(a)    The Borrower shall make each payment of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and of fees hereunder, not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date when due, in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York City, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.1. The Administrative Agent will distribute to each applicable Bank its ratable share of each such payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Banks on the same day as received by the Administrative Agent if received by the Administrative Agent by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), or, if received by the Administrative Agent after 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the immediately following Domestic Business Day. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to distribute to a Bank its ratable share of a payment on the same day it is received or the immediately following Domestic Business Day, as applicable in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall pay to such Bank the interest accrued on such payment at the Federal Funds Rate, commencing on the day the Administrative Agent should have made the payment to such Bank and ending on the day prior to the date payment is actually made. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Base Rate Loans or Swingline Loans or of fees shall be due on a day which is not a Domestic Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Domestic Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Euro-Dollar Loans shall be due on a day which is not a Euro-Dollar Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business Day unless such Euro-Dollar Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Euro-Dollar Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by each Term Loan Bank. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Commitment Percentages of each Revolving Credit Bank.
(b)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.
(c)    All payments made on the Loans shall be credited, to the extent of the amount thereof, in the following manner, in each case ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts then due to such party: (a) first, against all costs, expenses and other fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising under the terms hereof, of which, if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower has received notice pursuant to the terms hereof, (b) second, against the amount of interest accrued and unpaid on the Loans as of the date of such payment, (c) third, against all principal due and owing on the Loans

44



as of the date of such payment, and (d) fourth, to all other amounts constituting any portion of the Obligations.
(d)    If any Bank is a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent may (or at the request of the Borrower, shall), in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Fronting Banks to satisfy such Bank’s obligations to it hereunder until such Bank is not a Defaulting Lender, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Bank hereunder, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.
Section 2.13     Funding Losses . If the Borrower makes any payment of principal with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan (pursuant to Article II, VI or VIII or otherwise, and specifically including any payments made pursuant to Sections 2.10 or 2.11) on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or if the Borrower fails to borrow any Euro-Dollar Loans, after notice has been given to any Bank in accordance with Section 2.4(a), or to prepay any Euro-Dollar Loans, after notice has been given to any Bank in accordance with Section 2.11(b), the Borrower shall reimburse each Bank within 15 days after demand for any resulting loss or expense incurred by it (or by an existing Participant in the related Loan; provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive more than the Bank, with respect to which such Participant is a Participant, would be entitled to receive under this Section 2.13), including (without limitation) any loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after any such payment or failure to borrow, provided that such Bank shall have delivered to the Borrower a certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense and the calculation thereof, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
Section 2.14     Computation of Interest and Fees . Interest based on the Prime Rate hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All other interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).
Section 2.15     Method of Electing Interest Rates .
(a)    The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing or as otherwise provided in Section 2.18 with respect to Mandatory Borrowings. Thereafter, the Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Group of Loans (subject in each case to the provisions of Article VIII), as follows:
(i)    if such Loans are Base Rate Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert such Loans to Euro-Dollar Loans or Loans bearing interest at the Offered Rate as of any Euro-Dollar Business Day;

45



(ii)    if such Loans are Euro-Dollar Loans or Loans bearing interest at the Offered Rate, the Borrower may elect to convert such Loans to Base Rate Loans or elect to continue such Loans as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, in each case effective on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loans.
Each such election shall be made by delivering a notice (a “ Notice of Interest Rate Election ”) to the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Euro-Dollar Business Days before the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective (unless the relevant Loans are to be continued as Base Rate Loans, in which case such notice shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least one (1) Domestic Business Day before such continuation is to be effective). A Notice of Interest Rate Election may, if it so specifies, apply to only a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the relevant Group of Loans; provided that (i) such portion is allocated ratably among the Loans comprising such Group, (ii) the portion to which such notice applies, and the remaining portion to which it does not apply, are each $1,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000, (iii) there shall be no more than ten (10) Revolving Borrowings, and no more than four (4) Term Loan Borrowings, comprised of Euro-Dollar Loans outstanding at any time under this Agreement, (iv) no Loan may be continued as, or converted into, a Euro-Dollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (v) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the applicable Maturity Date.
(b)    Each Notice of Interest Rate Election shall specify:
(i)    the Group of Loans (or portion thereof) to which such notice applies;
(ii)    the date on which the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective, which shall comply with the applicable clause of subsection (a) above;
(iii)    if the Loans comprising such Group are to be converted, the new type of Loans and, if such new Loans are Euro-Dollar Loans, the duration of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto; and
(iv)    if such Loans are to be continued as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, the duration of such additional Interest Period.
Each Interest Period specified in a Notice of Interest Rate Election shall comply with the provisions of the definition of Interest Period.
(c)    Upon receipt of a Notice of Interest Rate Election from the Borrower pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Bank on the same day as it receives such Notice of Interest Rate Election of the contents thereof and such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Notice of Interest Rate Election to the Administrative Agent for any Group of Euro-Dollar Loans, such Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto.

46



Section 2.16     Letters of Credit . (1) Subject to the (a) terms contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including Section 2.1(a) hereof, upon the receipt of a notice in accordance with Section 2.2(b) requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, a Fronting Bank shall issue a Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit in such form as is reasonably acceptable to the Borrower in an amount or amounts equal to the amount or amounts requested by the Borrower. Letters of Credit issued and outstanding under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement are Letters of Credit for purposes of this Agreement.
(b)    Each Letter of Credit shall be issued in the minimum amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000).
(c)    The Letter of Credit Usage shall be no more than Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) at any one time and the Fronting Banks shall issue Letters of Credit on a proportional basis with no one Fronting Bank issuing Letters of Credit in an aggregate amount of more than one-third (1/3) such amount.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Fronting Bank shall have any obligation hereunder to issue any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made to any Person which to the knowledge of such Fronting Bank is a Sanctioned Person.
(e)    In the event of any request for a drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereunder, the applicable Fronting Bank(s) shall endeavor to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall endeavor to notify each Revolving Credit Bank thereof) on or before the date on which such Fronting Bank(s) intend to honor such drawing, and, except as provided in this subsection (e), the Borrower shall reimburse such Fronting Bank(s), in immediately available funds, on the same day on which such drawing is honored in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, however, unless the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Banks prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Domestic Business Day immediately prior to the date of such drawing that the Borrower intends to reimburse the Fronting Banks for the amount of such drawing with funds other than the proceeds of the Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Committed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.2 to the Administrative Agent, requesting a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolving Loans on the date on which such drawing is honored and in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. Each Revolving Credit Bank (other than the Fronting Banks) shall, in accordance with Section 2.4(b), make available its share of such Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Fronting Banks for the amount of such draw. In the event that any such Revolving Credit Bank fails to make available to the Fronting Banks the amount of such Revolving Credit Bank’s participation on the date of a drawing, the Fronting Banks (through the Administrative Agent) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Credit Bank together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate commencing on the date such drawing is honored.
(f)    If, at the time a beneficiary under any Letter of Credit requests a drawing thereunder, an Event of Default as described in Section 6.1(f) or Section 6.1(g) shall have occurred and is continuing, then on the date on which a Fronting Bank shall have honored such

47



drawing, the Borrower shall have an unreimbursed obligation (the “ Unreimbursed Obligation ”) to such Fronting Bank in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing, which amount shall bear interest at the annual rate of the sum of the Base Rate plus two percent (2%).

(g)    If, after the date hereof, any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any court or administrative or governmental authority charged with the administration thereof shall either (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by, or assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or participations in any letter of credit, upon any Revolving Credit Bank (including the Fronting Banks) or (ii) impose on any Revolving Credit Bank any other condition regarding this Agreement or such Revolving Credit Bank (including the Fronting Banks) as it pertains to the Letters of Credit or any participation therein and the result of any event referred to in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) shall be to increase, by an amount deemed by a Fronting Bank or such Revolving Credit Bank to be material, the cost to such Fronting Bank or any Revolving Credit Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or participating therein then the Borrower shall pay to such Fronting Bank or such Revolving Credit Bank, within 15 days after written demand by such Revolving Credit Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate showing, in reasonable detail, the calculation of such amount or amounts, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Fronting Bank or such Revolving Credit Bank for such increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder.
(h)    The Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save each Fronting Bank harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) which any Fronting Bank may incur or be subject to as a result of (i) the issuance of the Letters of Credit, other than as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Fronting Bank or (ii) the failure of a Fronting Bank to honor a drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority (collectively, “ Governmental Acts ”), other than as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Fronting Bank. As between the Borrower and a Fronting Bank, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuses of, the Letters of Credit issued by such Fronting Bank, by the beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, no Fronting Bank shall be responsible (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of such Letters of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or insufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit to

48



comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any message, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, facsimile transmission, or otherwise; (v) for errors in interpretation of any technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any documents required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of such Letter of Credit; and (viii) for any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Fronting Bank, including any Government Acts, in each case other than as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Fronting Bank. None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any Fronting Bank’s rights and powers hereunder. In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by a Fronting Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Fronting Bank under any resulting liability to the Borrower.
(i)    If a Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent is required at any time, pursuant to any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or reorganization law or otherwise, to return to the Borrower any reimbursement by the Borrower of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Bank shall pay to such Fronting Bank (through the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, its share of such payment, but without interest thereon unless such Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent is required to pay interest on such amounts to the person recovering such payment, in which case with interest thereon, computed at the same rate, and on the same basis, as the interest that such Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent is required to pay.

(e)    any draft or any other document presented under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or other Loan Document proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; provided , that payment by a Fronting Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of such draft or document shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Fronting Bank;
(f)    payment by a Fronting Bank against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit; provided , that such payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Fronting Bank; and
(g)    any other circumstance or happening whatsoever other than the payment in full of all obligations hereunder in respect of any Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating to any Letter of Credit, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower; provided , that such other circumstance or happening shall not have been the result of gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Fronting Bank.
Section 2.18     Swingline Loan Subfacility .
(a)     Swingline Commitment . Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.18, the Swingline Lender, in its individual capacity, agrees to make certain revolving credit loans to the Borrower (each a “ Swingline Loa n” and, collectively, the “ Swingline Loans ”) from time to time during the Availability Period hereof; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the aggregate Revolving Commitments less the Outstanding Balance, and (ii) 15% of the aggregate Revolving Commitments (the “ Swingline Commitment ”). Subject to the limitations set forth herein, any amounts repaid in respect of Swingline Loans may be reborrowed.
(b)     Swingline Borrowings .
(i)     Notice of Borrowing . With respect to any Swingline Borrowing, the Borrower shall give the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent notice in writing which is received by the Swingline Lender and Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed date of such Swingline Borrowing (and confirmed by telephone by such time), specifying (A) that a Swingline Borrowing is being requested, (B) the amount of such Swingline Borrowing, (C) the proposed date of such Swingline Borrowing, which shall be a Domestic Business Day, and (D) that no

50



Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing both before and after giving effect to such Swingline Borrowing. Such notice shall be irrevocable.
(ii)     Minimum Amounts . Each Swingline Borrowing shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000, or larger multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.
(iii)     Repayment of Swingline Loans . Each Swingline Loan shall be due and payable on the earliest of (A) ten (10) days after the date of the applicable Swingline Borrowing, (B) the date of the next Committed Revolving Borrowing, and (C) the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. If, and to the extent, any Swingline Loans shall be outstanding on the date of any Committed Revolving Borrowing, such Swingline Loans shall first be repaid from the proceeds of such Committed Revolving Borrowing prior to the disbursement of the same to the Borrower. If, and to the extent, a Committed Revolving Borrowing is not requested prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the end of the five (5) day period after a Swingline Borrowing, or unless the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the fourth (4th) day after the Swingline Borrowing that the Borrower intends to reimburse the Swingline Lender for the amount of such Swingline Borrowing with funds other than proceeds of the Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Revolving Borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of the applicable Swingline Loan then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loan to the Swingline Lender. In addition, if (x) the Borrower does not repay the Swingline Loan on or prior to the end of such five (5) day period, or (y) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred during such five (5) day period, the Swingline Lender may, at any time, in its sole discretion, by written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, demand repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of a Committed Revolving Borrowing, in which case the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Revolving Borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of such Swingline Loans then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loans to the Swingline Lender. Any Committed Revolving Borrowing which is deemed requested by the Borrower in accordance with this Section 2.18(b)(iii) is hereinafter referred to as a “ Mandatory Borrowing ”. Each Revolving Credit Bank hereby irrevocably agrees to make Committed Revolving Loans promptly upon receipt of notice from the Swingline Lender of any such deemed request for a Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentences and on the date such notice is received by such Revolving Credit Bank (or the next Domestic Business Day if such notice is received after 12:00 noon (New York City time)) notwithstanding (I) that the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount of Committed Revolving Borrowings otherwise required hereunder, (II) whether any conditions specified in Section 3.2 are then satisfied, (III) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (IV) failure of any such deemed request for a Committed Revolving Borrowing to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.2, (V) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing (provided that such date must be a Domestic Business Day), or (VI) any termination of the Revolving Commitments immediately prior to such Mandatory Borrowing or contemporaneously therewith; provided, however, that no

51



Revolving Credit Bank shall be obligated to make Committed Revolving Loans in respect of a Mandatory Borrowing if a Default or an Event of Default then exists and the applicable Swingline Loan was made by the Swingline Lender without receipt of a written Notice of Borrowing in the form specified in subclause (i) above or after Administrative Agent has delivered a notice of Default or Event of Default which has not been rescinded.
(iv)     Purchase of Participations . In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Borrower), then each Revolving Credit Bank hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payment received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Revolving Credit Bank to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon its Revolving Commitment Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 6.2), provided that (A) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans with respect to any participation shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until but excluding the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, and (B) in the event of a delay between the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred and the time any purchase of a participation pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Revolving Credit Bank shall be required to pay to the Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of such participation for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate, for the two (2) Domestic Business Days after the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Revolving Credit Bank shall be obligated to purchase a participation in any Swingline Loan if a Default or an Event of Default then exists and such Swingline Loan was made by the Swingline Lender without receipt of a written Notice of Borrowing in the form specified in subclause (i) above or after Administrative Agent has delivered a notice of Default or Event of Default which has not been rescinded.
(c)     Interest Rate . Each Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Swingline Loan is made until the date it is repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Euro-Dollar Revolving Loans for such day.
Section 2.19     Extending Facilities .
(a)    The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or any portion of Term Loans or Revolving Loans or the Revolving Commitment with a like maturity date (an “ Existing Loan Facility ”) be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, and to otherwise modify the terms of such Term Loans,

52



Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments to the extent not prohibited in this Section 2.19 (any such Term Loans or Revolving Loans which have been so converted, “ Extended Loans ”, and any such Revolving Commitments which have been so converted, “ Extended Revolving Commitments ”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.19 (an “ Extension ”). Any such request shall be made on a pro rata basis and on the same terms to each applicable Bank. In order to establish any Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Banks under the applicable Existing Loan Facility) (an “ Extension Request ”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments to be established, provided that:
(i)    all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Loans (including the maturity date) may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal (including the maturity date) of the Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable, of such Existing Loan Facility to the extent provided in the applicable Loan Extension Amendment;
(ii)    the interest margins with respect to the Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments may be different than the interest margins for the Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, of such Existing Loan Facility, and upfront fees may be paid to the Extending Lenders, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Loan Extension Amendment;
(iii)    the Loan Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the latest applicable Maturity Date of the Term Loans, Revolving Loans and Revolving Loan Commitments being converted as in effect on the effective date of the Loan Extension Amendment immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments; or
(iv)    no Extended Loans that were Term Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which the Term Loans under the Existing Loan Facility from which they were converted are repaid in full unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional prepayment of the Term Loans under such Existing Loan Facility; and
(v)    (A) the borrowing and repayment (except for (x) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (y) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving Commitments and (z) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments of such tranche, (B) all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Banks with Revolving Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolving Commitments subject to the express terms herein, (C) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving

53



Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class, (D) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans and (E) at no time shall there be Revolving Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments and any original Revolving Commitments) which have more than two (2) different maturity dates.
Any Extended Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments converted pursuant to any Loan Extension Amendment shall be designated a separate Class of Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Loans converted from an Existing Loan Facility may, to the extent provided in the applicable Loan Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Class of Loans or Commitments with respect to such Existing Loan Facility. Any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate Class of Term Loans from the Class of Term Loans from which there were converted, any Extended Revolving Loans shall constitute a separate Class of Revolving Loans from the Class of Revolving Loans from which there were converted and any Extended Revolving Commitments shall constitute a separate tranche of Revolving Commitments from the tranche of Revolving Commitments from which they were converted. No Extension shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory prepayment for purpose of Sections 2.10 and 2.11 . Each Extension shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Banks that accept an Extension Request.

(b)    The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which Banks under the Existing Loan Facility are requested to respond. No Extension Request is required to be in any minimum amount or increment; provided that the Borrower may specify as a condition to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be specified in the applicable Extension Request) of Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments be tendered (subject to waiver by the Borrower in its sole discretion). No Bank shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, of any Existing Loan Facility converted into Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Bank (an “ Extending Lender ”) wishing in its sole and individual discretion to have all or any portion of its Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, under the Existing Loan Facility subject to such Extension Request converted into Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “ Extension Election ”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, under the Existing Loan Facility which it has elected to request be converted into Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments. In the event that the aggregate amount of Term Loans, Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments under the Existing Loan Facility subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments requested pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans, Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Term Loans, Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments, as applicable, included in such

54



Extension Election. It shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any Extension that no Default or Event of Default shall exist on the date of the Extension Request and on the date of the Extension.
(c)    Each Class of Extended Loans and Extended Revolving Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (a “ Loan Extension Amendment ”) to this Agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Extending Lender providing an Extended Loan or Extended Revolving Commitment thereunder which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in paragraph (a) above (but which shall not require the consent of any other Bank) and which may include such technical amendments to this Agreement as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Each Loan Extension Amendment shall be binding on the Banks, the General Partner and the other parties hereto. In connection with any Loan Extension Amendment, the Borrower shall deliver a reaffirmation of the Guaranty from the General Partner and such resolutions, certificates, opinions of counsel (including in-house opinions in lieu of opinions of outside counsel) and other documents in connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.
(d)    This Section 2.19 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 9.4 or 9.5 to the contrary.

Section 6.2     Rights and Remedies . (a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 6.1(f) or (g), the unpaid principal amount of, and any and all accrued interest on, the Loans and any and all accrued fees and other Obligations hereunder shall automatically become immediately due and payable, with all additional interest from time to time accrued thereon and without presentment, demand, or protest or other notices or requirements of any kind (including, without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice of intent to demand or accelerate and notice of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Banks shall, exercise any of its rights and remedies hereunder and by written notice to the

73



Borrower, declare the Commitment(s) of each Bank to make Loans to be terminated whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, declare the unpaid principal amount of and any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and any and all accrued fees and other Obligations hereunder to be, and the same shall thereupon be, immediately due and payable with all additional interest from time to time accrued thereon and without presentation, demand, or protest or other requirements of any kind other than as provided in the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, and notice of intent to demand or accelerate), all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.
(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default other than any Event of Default described in Sections 6.1(f) or (g), the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any of its rights and remedies hereunder nor declare the unpaid principal amount of and any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and any and all accrued fees and other Obligations hereunder to be immediately due and payable, until such time as the Administrative Agent shall have delivered a notice to the Banks specifying the Event of Default which has occurred and whether Administrative Agent recommends the acceleration of the Obligations due hereunder or the exercise of other remedies hereunder. The Banks shall notify the Administrative Agent if they approve or disapprove of the acceleration of the Obligations due hereunder or the exercise of such other remedy recommended by Administrative Agent within five (5) Domestic Business Days after receipt of such notice. If any Bank shall not respond within such five (5) Domestic Business Day period, then such Bank shall be deemed to have accepted Administrative Agent’s recommendation for acceleration of the Obligations due hereunder or the exercise of such other remedy. Regardless of the Administrative Agent’s recommendation, if the Required Banks shall approve the acceleration of the Obligations due hereunder or the exercise of such other remedy, then Administrative Agent shall declare the Commitment(s) of each Bank to make Loans to be terminated whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate and declare the unpaid principal amount of and any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and any and all accrued fees and other Obligations hereunder to be immediately due and payable or exercise such other remedy approved by the Required Banks. If the Required Banks shall neither approve nor disapprove the acceleration of the Obligations due hereunder or such other remedy recommended by Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent may accelerate the Obligations due hereunder or exercise any of its rights and remedies hereunder in its sole discretion. If the Required Banks shall disapprove the acceleration of the Obligations due hereunder or the exercise of such other remedy recommended by Administrative Agent, but approve of another remedy, then to the extent permitted hereunder, Administrative Agent shall exercise such remedy. In the event the Administrative Agent exercises any remedy provided in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall act as a collateral agent for the Banks.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in Administrative Agent’s sole judgment, immediate action is required after an Event of Default has occurred to prevent loss to the Banks, the Administrative Agent may exercise any of its rights and remedies pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, acceleration of the Obligations hereunder, without the prior consent of the Required Banks provided that the Administrative Agent has notified the Banks of its intention so to exercise such rights and remedies and within 48 hours (such hours being counted only on Domestic Business Days) thereafter the Required Banks have not instructed the Administrative Agent to the contrary.

74



Section 6.3     Notice of Default . If the Administrative Agent shall not already have given any notice to the Borrower under Section 6.1, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower under Section 6.1 promptly upon being requested to do so by the Required Banks and shall thereupon notify all the Banks thereof.
Section 6.4     Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit . (a) If, at any time and from time to time, any Letter of Credit shall have been issued hereunder and an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, upon the occurrence and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent may, and if requested by the Required Revolving Credit Banks the Administrative Agent shall, whether in addition to the taking by the Administrative Agent of any of the actions described in this Article or otherwise, make a demand upon the Borrower to, and forthwith upon such demand (but in any event within ten (10) days after such demand) the Borrower shall, pay to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Revolving Credit Banks, in same day funds at the Administrative Agent’s office designated in such demand, for deposit in a special cash collateral account (the “Letter of Credit Collateral Account”) to be maintained in the name of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Revolving Credit Banks) and under its sole dominion and control at such place as shall be designated by the Administrative Agent, an amount equal to the amount of the Letter of Credit Usage under the Letters of Credit; provided that if an Event of Default described in Section 6.1(f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing, such obligation of the Borrower to deliver such amounts to the Cash Collateral Account shall become automatically due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notices or requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. The Borrower shall also deposit amounts into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account in accordance with Section 9.8(c)(ii). Interest shall accrue on the Letter of Credit Collateral Account at a rate equal to the rate on overnight funds.
(b)    The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, as administrative agent for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Banks a lien on and a security interest in, the following collateral (the “ Letter of Credit Collateral” ):
(i)    the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, all cash deposited therein and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing the Letter of Credit Collateral Account;
(ii)    all notes, certificates of deposit and other instruments from time to time hereafter delivered to or otherwise possessed by the Administrative Agent for or on behalf of the Borrower in substitution for or in respect of any or all of the then existing Letter of Credit Collateral;
(iii)    all interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the then existing Letter of Credit Collateral; and
(iv)    to the extent not covered by the above clauses, all proceeds of any or all of the foregoing Letter of Credit Collateral.

75



The lien and security interest granted hereby secures the payment of all obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing hereunder and under any other Loan Document.
(c)    The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Banks to apply, from time to time after funds are deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, funds then held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect, as shall have become due and payable by the Borrower to the Revolving Credit Banks in respect of the Letters of Credit.
(d)    Neither the Borrower nor any Person claiming or acting on behalf of or through the Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, except as provided in Section 6.4(h) hereof.
(e)    The Borrower agrees that it will not (i) sell or otherwise dispose of any interest in the Letter of Credit Collateral or (ii) create or permit to exist any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the Letter of Credit Collateral, except for the security interest created by this Section 6.4.
(f)    If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:
(i)    The Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, without notice to the Borrower except as required by law and at any time from time to time, charge, set off or otherwise apply all or any part of the Letter of Credit Collateral first, (x) amounts previously drawn on any Letter of Credit that have not been reimbursed by the Borrower and (y) any Letter of Credit Usage described in clause (ii) of the definition thereof that are then due and payable and second, with the consent of the Required Revolving Credit Banks, any other unpaid Obligations then due and payable against the Letter of Credit Collateral Account or any part thereof, in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect. The rights of the Administrative Agent under this Section 6.4 are in addition to any rights and remedies which any Revolving Credit Bank may have.
(ii)    The Administrative Agent may also exercise, in its sole discretion, in respect of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York at that time.
(g)    The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Letter of Credit Collateral if the Letter of Credit Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, it being understood that, assuming such treatment, the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility or liability with respect thereto.
(h)    At such time as (x) all Events of Default have been cured or waived in writing and (y) all cash collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Fronting Banks’ exposure to any Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Usage pursuant to Section

76



9.8(c)(ii) shall no longer be required to be held as cash collateral pursuant to this Section 6.4 as a result of (x) the elimination or reduction of the applicable exposure to a Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Usage (including by the termination of the Defaulting Lender status of such Bank) or (y) the Administrative Agent’s determination that there exists excess cash collateral, all amounts (or excess portion thereof) remaining in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be promptly returned to the Borrower; provided that the Borrower and each applicable Fronting Bank may agree to continue to hold cash collateral to support future anticipated exposure to a Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Usage. Absent such cure or written waiver, any surplus of the funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and remaining after payment in full of all of the Obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under any other Loan Document after the Maturity Date and cancellation or return of all Letters of Credit shall be paid to the Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
ARTICLE VII
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
Section 7.1     Appointment and Authorization . Each Bank and each Fronting Bank irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement or with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, only the Administrative Agent (and not one or more of the Banks) shall have the authority to deal directly with the Borrower under this Agreement and each Bank acknowledges that all notices, demands or requests from such Bank to Borrower must be forwarded to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the Borrower. Each Bank acknowledges that, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Borrower has no obligation to act or refrain from acting on instructions or demands of one or more Banks absent written instructions from Administrative Agent in accordance with its rights and authority hereunder.
Section 7.2     Administrative Agent and Affiliates . JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder, and the term “Bank” and “Banks” shall include JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in its individual capacity.
Section 7.3     Action by Administrative Agent . (a) The obligations of the Administrative Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except as expressly provided in Article VI. The Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, the performance of any of its obligations thereunder, or by the use of the term “Administrative Agent”, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Bank or the Borrower.

77



(b)    The Administrative Agent shall promptly forward, or make available by Intralinks or other internet access system, to each Bank tangible or electronic copies, or notify (in writing or electronically and, if electronically, the Administrative Agent will also transmit a fax indicating that the information in question is being transmitted electronically) each Bank as to the contents, of all notices, financial statements and other significant materials and communications received from the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and, in the event that the Borrower fails to pay when due the principal of or interest on any Loan, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Banks. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Banks, and such instructions shall be binding upon all the Banks; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. If the Borrower shall have made any payment of principal of and interest on the Loans or any other amount due hereunder in accordance with Article II hereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have distributed to each Bank its proper share of such payment on the date on which such payment shall be received (other than as a result of any shutdown of or disturbance in any payment system or any other event or circumstance beyond the reasonable control of the Administrative Agent), then the Administrative Agent shall pay such proper share to such Bank together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such payment shall have been received from the Borrower until the date such amount is paid by the Administrative Agent to such Bank. If any Bank transfers funds to the Administrative Agent in anticipation of the making of a Loan that is subsequently not made, then the Administrative Agent agrees to repay such funds to such Bank upon the receipt of a notice from such Bank requesting the repayment of such funds, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date which is the day upon which Administrative Agent shall have received a notice from such bank requesting the repayment of such funds until the date such amount is paid by the Administrative Agent to such Bank.
Section 7.4     Consultation with Experts . The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 7.5     Liability of Administrative Agent . Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Banks or, where required by the terms of this Agreement, all of the Banks, or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default (other than a Default under Section 6.1(a) with respect to the payment of principal, interest, facility fees or Letter of Credit Fees) unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Bank. Neither the Administrative

78



Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement or any borrowing hereunder or the contents of any report or certificate delivered hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrower; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article III, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith. The Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be sent by electronic means) believed by it in good faith to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it in good faith to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.
Section 7.6     Indemnification . (a) Each Bank shall, ratably in accordance with its Aggregate Exposure Percentage, indemnify the Administrative Agent, their Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur as a result of, or in connection with, the Administrative Agent’s capacity as Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees in accordance with this Agreement, including any amounts that the Borrower fails to pay under Section 9.3(a).
(b)    Each Revolving Credit Bank shall, ratably in accordance with its Revolving Commitment Percentage, indemnify the Fronting Banks, the Swingline Lender, their Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur as a result of, or in connection with, the Administrative Agent’s capacity as Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees in accordance with this Agreement, including any amounts that the Borrower fails to pay under Section 9.3(a).
Section 7.7     Credit Decision . Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement.
Section 7.8     Successor Administrative Agent . The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower. In addition, if the

79



Administrative Agent at any time shall have been finally determined to have committed gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its performance of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder or if the Commitment of the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Bank, inclusive of participations, shall be less than $10,000,000, then, upon notice from the Required Banks, the Administrative Agent shall resign. Upon any such resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent with the consent of the Borrower (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, with the reasonable approval of the Borrower provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be outstanding, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000, total assets of at least $25,000,000,000 and a long-term senior unsecured indebtedness rating of BBB+ or better by S&P (if rated by S&P) and Baa1 by Moody’s (if rated by Moody’s). Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder first accruing or arising after the effective date of such retirement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent.
If, at any time during the Availability Period, the Administrative Agent shall no longer have any Commitment or hold outstanding Loans under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of its offer to resign to the Banks and the Borrower. Upon any such offer of resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent or to retain the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Borrower; provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

ARTICLE VIII
CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES
Section 8.1     Alternate Rate of Interest . If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Euro-Dollar Borrowing:
(a)     the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or
(b)     the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Facility Banks for the applicable Facility that the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks (or Bank) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing under such Facility for such Interest Period;
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Banks by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Banks that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Notice of Interest Rate Election that requests the conversion of any Borrowing under such Facility to, or continuation of any Borrowing under such Facility as, a Euro-Dollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Euro-Dollar Borrowing under such Facility, such Borrowing shall be made as an Base Rate Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only Borrowings under a particular Facility, then the Borrowings under the other Facility shall be permitted.
Section 8.2     Illegality . If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any existing applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Bank (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) to make, maintain or fund its Euro-Dollar Loans or Money Market Loans, or, with respect to Revolving Credit Banks, to participate in any Letter of Credit issued by a Fronting Bank, or, with respect to a Fronting Bank, to issue any Letter of Credit, and such Bank shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Banks and the Borrower, whereupon until such Bank notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Bank to make or convert Euro-Dollar Loans or Money Market Loans, or with respect to Revolving Credit Banks, to participate in any Letter of Credit issued by a Fronting Bank or, with respect to a Fronting Bank, to issue any Letter of Credit, shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, such Bank shall designate a different Euro-Dollar Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise

disadvantageous to such Bank. If such Bank shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding Euro-Dollar Loans or Money Market Loans (as the case may be) to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, the Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each such Euro-Dollar Loan or Money Market Loan, together with accrued interest thereon. Concurrently with prepaying each such Euro-Dollar Loan, the Borrower shall borrow a Base Rate Loan in an equal principal amount from such Bank (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Euro-Dollar Loans or Money Market Loans of the other Banks), and such Bank shall make such a Base Rate Loan.
Section 8.3     Increased Cost and Reduced Return .
(a)    If, after (x) the date hereof, in the case of any Committed Loan or any obligation to make Committed Loans or (y) the date of the related Money Market Quote, in the case of any Money Market Loan, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule, directive, decision or regulation, or any change in the interpretation, re-interpretation, application or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (“ Change of Law ”), or compliance by any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request, decision or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (but excluding with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan any such requirement reflected in an applicable Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage)), special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) or shall impose on any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) or on the London interbank market any other condition affecting its Euro-Dollar Loans or Money Market LIBOR Loans, its Notes, or its obligation to make Euro-Dollar Loans, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Euro-Dollar Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement or under its Notes with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate showing, in reasonable detail, the calculation of such amount or amounts, the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduction. For purposes hereof, all requests, rules, guidelines or directives in connection with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act shall be deemed to be a change after the date hereof or after the date of the related Money Market Quote, as applicable, regardless of the date enacted, implemented, adopted or issued and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States financial regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III shall be deemed to be such a change regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented (each a “ Regulatory Change ”), provided, however, that if the applicable Bank shall have implemented changes prior to the Closing Date in response to any such requests, rules, guidelines or

82



directives, then the same shall not be deemed to be a change after the date hereof or after the date of the related Money Market Quote, as applicable, with respect to such Bank.
(b)    If any Bank shall have determined that, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital or liquidity requirements, or any change in any such law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, including any Regulatory Change, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital or liquidity requirements) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate showing, in reasonable detail, the calculation of such amount or amounts, the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank (or its Parent) for such reduction.
(c)    Each Bank will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section (although failure or delay on the part of any Bank to provide such notice or to demand compensation pursuant to this Section, after receiving notice of increased cost or reduced rate of return, shall not constitute a waiver of such Bank’s right to demand such compensation unless such failure materially prejudices Borrower’s rights hereunder) and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.
Section 8.4     Taxes .
(a)     Payments Free of Taxes . Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 8.4) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

83



(b)     Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower . The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.
(c)     Evidence of Payments . As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 8.4, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(d)     Indemnification by the Borrower . Without duplication of Sections 8.4(a) or (b) above, the Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall reasonably cooperate, at its sole discretion and at no cost to the Administrative Agent or the Banks, with efforts by Borrower to recover any Taxes or Other Taxes which Borrower reasonably believes were incorrectly or illegally imposed.
(e)     Indemnification by the Banks . Each Bank shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Bank (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Bank’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.6(b) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Bank from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).
(f)     Status of Banks . (i) The Administrative Agent or any Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, the Administrative Agent or any Bank, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or

84



the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 8.4(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Recipient’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,
(A)    the Administrative Agent and any Bank that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which the Administrative Agent becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or such Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement, as applicable, (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Administrative Agent or Bank, as applicable is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)    any Foreign Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)    in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or applicable successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN (or applicable successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(2)    executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3)    in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-1 to the effect that such Foreign Bank is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign

85



corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “ U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate ”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or applicable successor form); or
(4)    to the extent a Foreign Bank is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN (or applicable successor form), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-2 or Exhibit I-3 , IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Bank is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Bank are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Bank may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Recipient agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

86



(g)     Treatment of Certain Refunds . If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 8.4 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 8.4), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 8.4 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(h)     Survival . Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.4 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Bank, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
(i)     Defined Terms . For purposes of this Section 8.4, the term “ Bank ” includes any Fronting Bank and the term “ applicable law ” includes FATCA.
Section 8.5     Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Euro-Dollar Loans . If (i) the obligation of any Bank to make, or convert outstanding Loans to, Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Sections 8.1 or 8.2 or (ii) any Bank has demanded compensation under Section 8.3 or 8.4 with respect to its Euro-Dollar Loans and the Borrower shall, by at least five (5) Euro-Dollar Business Days’ prior notice to such Bank through the Administrative Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Bank, then, unless and until such Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer exist:
(a)    all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Bank as Euro-Dollar Loans shall be made instead as Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Banks), and
(b)    after each of its Euro-Dollar Loans has been repaid, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to repay such Euro-Dollar Loans shall be applied to repay its Base Rate Loans instead.

87



Section 8.6     SPC Loans . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Bank (a “ Granting Bank ”) may grant to one special purpose funding vehicle (a “ SPC ”) sponsored by such Granting Bank, as identified as such in writing by such Granting Bank to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower from time to time (including, without limitation, by the execution of this Agreement on the date hereof by a Granting Bank and its SPC identified as such on the signature pages hereof), the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Bank would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPC, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Bank shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of such Granting Bank to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Bank. Any SPC that makes a Loan shall (i) have in regard to such Loan all of the rights (exercisable, however, only through its Granting Bank acting as its agent) that such Granting Bank would have had if it had made such Loan directly, and (ii) comply with this Agreement in regard to such Loan on the same terms as any other Bank party hereto; provided that (A) the Granting Bank’s Commitment shall remain the Commitment of such Granting Bank, and (B) all monetary obligations of an SPC hereunder in respect of any Loan it provides shall remain the obligations of such Granting Bank to the extent at any time that such SPC elects not to or otherwise fails to perform or pay any such obligation. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any payment under this Agreement for which a Bank would otherwise be liable for so long as, and to the extent, its sponsoring Granting Bank makes such payment. Notwithstanding any Loan that may be provided by an SPC hereunder, the Administrative Agent and Borrower shall be entitled to continue to communicate and deal solely and directly with the Granting Bank in accordance with this Agreement in respect of such Loan. Each SPC that is a signatory hereto, and each SPC that subsequently is identified by its Granting Bank as having been granted such option, shall be deemed to have confirmed (and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may require a written acknowledgment of such confirmation signed by any SPC not a signatory hereto that is subsequently so identified by its Granting Bank) to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that (a) it has received a copy of the Agreement and each Loan Document, together with copies of the financial statements heretofore provided to the Banks under the terms of this Agreement and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement; (b) agrees that it will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, its Granting Bank or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Agreement and any other Loan Document; (c) appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; (d) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document are required to be performed by it as a Bank, subject to the terms of this Section 8.6; and (e) appoints its Granting Bank, or a specified branch or Affiliate thereof, as its agent and attorney in fact and grants to its Granting Bank an irrevocable power of attorney to receive payments made for the benefit of such SPC under this Agreement, to deliver and receive all communications and notices

88



under this Agreement and other Loan Documents and to exercise on such SPC’s behalf all rights to vote and to grant and make approvals, waivers, consents of amendments to or under this Agreement and other Loan Documents. Any document executed by such agent on such SPC’s behalf in connection with this Agreement or other Loan Documents shall be binding on such SPC. In furtherance of the foregoing, all the Banks and the Administrative Agent each hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one (1) year and one (1) day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 9.6(c), any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower or Administrative Agent, and without the payment of any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Bank or to any financial institutions consented to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, subject to all of the provisions of this paragraph, such consents shall be deemed to have been granted with respect to any SPC signatory hereto on the date hereof) providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of loans, and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of liquidity and/or credit facilities to such SPC. Nothing in this Section 8.6 that would affect the rights or obligations of an SPC may be amended without the written consent of any SPC that has any Loan outstanding at the time of such amendment.
Section 8.7     Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Banks . (a) If any Bank requests compensation under Section 8.3, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank pursuant to Section 8.4, then such Bank shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Bank, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.3 or 8.4, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Bank. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)    If (w) any Bank is unable to make, maintain or fund its Eurodollar Loans or to participate in any Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 8.2 for a period of ten (10) consecutive days, or (x) any Bank requests compensation under Section 8.3, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank pursuant to Section 8.4, or (y) if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Lender, or (z) any Bank has refused to consent to any proposed amendment, modification, waiver, termination or consent with respect to any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that, pursuant to Section 9.5, requires the consent of all Banks or of all Banks affected thereby and with respect to which Banks constituting the Required Banks have consented to such proposed amendment, modification, waiver, termination or consent, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Bank to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions

89



contained in Section 9.6), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (other than any outstanding Money Market Loans held by it) to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Fronting Banks and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed (provided that no such consent shall be required for an assignment to any Bank so long as, after giving effect to such assignment, such Bank’s Revolving Commitment Percentage does not exceed 25%), (ii) such Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans (other than Money Market Loans) and participations in Unreimbursed Obligations and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 8.3 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 8.4, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Bank’s refusal to consent to a proposed amendment, modification, waiver, termination or consent, the assignee shall approve the proposed amendment, modification, waiver, termination or consent. A Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

92

The Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations. This Section 9.3(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
Section 9.4     Sharing of Set-Offs . In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Bank is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), other than deposits held for the benefit of third parties, and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Bank (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of such Bank wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of the Obligations of the Borrower then due and payable to such Bank under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations purchased by such Bank. Each Bank 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 and interest due with respect to any Note held by it or Letter of Credit participated in by it, or, in the case of a Fronting Bank, Letter of Credit issued by it, which is greater than the proportion received by any other Bank or Letter of Credit issued or participated in by such other Bank, in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect to any Note held by such other Bank, the Bank receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Notes held by the other Banks or Letter of Credit issued or participated in by such other Bank, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments of principal and interest with respect to the Notes held by the Banks or Letter of Credit issued or participated in by such other Banks shall be shared by the Banks pro rata; provided that (x) nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Bank to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of the Borrower other than its indebtedness under the Notes or the Letters of Credit, (y) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Bank as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or Commitments to any assignee or

93



participant and (z) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to any Extension made in accordance with Section 2.19. The Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Note, whether or not acquired pursuant to the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
Section 9.5     Amendments and Waivers . Any provision of this Agreement (including any of the financial covenants given by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.8), the Notes, the Letters of Credit or other Loan Documents may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Required Banks, (and, if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks or the Swingline Lender are affected thereby (including pursuant to Section 2.16, Section 2.18, Article VII or Section 9.8), by the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks or the Swingline Lender, as applicable) (and, if the rights or duties of only a specific Facility are affected thereby or if such amendment or waiver adversely affects the rights of a specific Facility in a manner that is different than such amendment or waiver effects the other Facility, the Majority Facility Banks for such Facility); provided that no such amendment or waiver shall (a) increase the Commitment of any Bank, unless signed by such Bank, (b) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan or any fees specified herein, unless signed by each Bank affected thereby, (c) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any Loan, or the expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, or any fees hereunder or for any reduction or termination of any Commitment, unless signed by each Bank affected thereby (notwithstanding the foregoing, however, it is agreed that only the consent of the extending Banks shall be required for an Extension in accordance with Section 2.19), (d) release the Guaranty or otherwise release any other collateral, unless signed by each Bank affected thereby, (e) subordinate the Loans to any other Debt, unless signed by each Bank affected thereby, (f) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes, or the number of Banks, which shall be required for the Banks or any of them to take any action under this Section 9.5 or any other provision of this Agreement, unless signed by each Bank affected thereby, (g) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Facility Banks with respect to any Facility, unless signed by all of the Banks under such Facility, (h) change Section 2.12(c) or Section 9.4 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, unless signed by each Bank affected thereby or (i) increase the sum of the aggregate Revolving Commitments plus the aggregate amount of all Term Loans made hereunder above $1,100,000,000 unless signed by all of the Banks. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Designating Lender on behalf of its Designated Lender affected thereby, (x) subject such Designated Lender to any additional obligations, (y) reduce the principal of, interest on, or other amounts due with respect to, the Designated Lender Note made payable to such Designated Lender, or (z) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, or other amounts due with respect to the Designated Lender Note made payable to the Designated Lender.
Section 9.6     Successors and Assigns . (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under

94



this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of all Banks (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be void).
(b)    Any Bank may at any time grant to one or more banks or other entities, other than the Borrower and its Affiliates (each a “ Participant ”) participating interests in any or all of its Commitments or any or all of its Loans. In the event of any such grant by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, such Bank shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Bank will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 9.5 without the consent of the Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall, to the extent provided in its participation agreement, be entitled to the benefits of Article VIII with respect to its participating interest (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 8.4(d)(iii) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 8.4(d)(iii) shall be delivered to the participating Bank)) to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section; provided that such Participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 8.7 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (c) of this Section; and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 8.3 or 8.4, with respect to any participation, than its participating Bank would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) or (d) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (b). Each Bank that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “ Participant Register ”); provided that no Bank shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Bank shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(c)    Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an “ Assignee ”) all, or a proportionate part of all, of its rights and obligations under this

95



Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit D attached hereto executed by such Assignee and such transferor Bank, with (and subject to) the prior written consent of (x) the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of (A) any Revolving Commitment to an assignee that is a Revolving Credit Bank (other than a Defaulting Lender) immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment and (B) all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund, (y) provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided further, however, that no such consent by the Borrower shall be required in the case of an assignment to another Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof and (z) in the case of an assignment of a Revolving Commitment, the Swingline Lender and each Fronting Bank, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Bank may assign or participate its interest to (x) the Borrower and its Affiliates, (y) a natural person or (z) a Defaulting Lender. Except in the case of an assignment to a Revolving Credit Bank or an Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Bank or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Revolving Credit Bank's Revolving Commitments, the amount of the Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans of the assigning Revolving Credit Bank subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement (provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations in respect of only one Facility). The assignee, if it shall not be a Bank, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. Upon execution and delivery (and acceptance and recording in the Register by the Administrative Agent) of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Bank of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Bank and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank with a Commitment as set forth in such instrument of assumption, and the transferor Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, a new Note or Notes are issued to the Assignee. In connection with any such assignment (except for an assignment by a Bank to its Affiliate), the transferor Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500. The Assignee shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 8.4.

96



(d)    Any Bank that holds Revolving Commitments (each, a “ Designating Lender ”) may at any time designate one Designated Lender to fund Money Market Loans on behalf of such Designating Lender subject to the terms of this Section 9.6(d) and the provisions in Section 9.6(b) and (c) shall not apply to such designation. No Bank may designate more than one (1) Designated Lender. The parties to each such designation shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance a Designation Agreement. Upon such receipt of an appropriately completed Designation Agreement executed by a Designating Lender and a designee representing that it is a Designated Lender, the Administrative Agent will accept such Designation Agreement and will give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon, (i) the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Designating Bank a Designated Lender Note payable to the Designated Lender, (ii) from and after the effective date specified in the Designation Agreement, the Designated Lender shall become a party to this Agreement with a right (subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(b)) to make Money Market Loans on behalf of its Designating Lender pursuant to Section 2.3 after the Borrower has accepted a Money Market Loan (or portion thereof) of the Designating Lender, and (iii) the Designated Lender shall not be required to make payments with respect to any obligations in this Agreement except to the extent of excess cash flow of such Designated Lender which is not otherwise required to repay obligations of such Designated Lender which are then due and payable; provided, however, that regardless of such designation and assumption by the Designated Lender, the Designating Lender shall be and remain obligated to the Borrower and the Banks for each and every of the obligations of the Designating Lender and its related Designated Lender with respect to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any indemnification obligations under Section 7.6 hereof and any sums otherwise payable to the Borrower by the Designated Lender. Each Designating Lender shall serve as the administrative agent of the Designated Lender and shall on behalf of, and to the exclusion of, the Designated Lender: (i) receive any and all payments made for the benefit of the Designated Lender and (ii) give and receive all communications and notices and take all actions hereunder, including, without limitation, votes, approvals, waivers, consents and amendments under or relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any such notice, communication, vote, approval, waiver, consent or amendment shall be signed by the Designating Lender as administrative agent for the Designated Lender and shall not be signed by the Designated Lender on its own behalf and shall be binding upon the Designated Lender to the same extent as if signed by the Designated Lender on its own behalf. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Banks may rely thereon without any requirement that the Designated Lender sign or acknowledge the same. No Designated Lender may assign or transfer all or any portion of its interest hereunder or under any other Loan Document, other than assignments to the Designating Lender which originally designated such Designated Lender or otherwise in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6(b) and (c).
(e)    Any Bank may at any time assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Notes and the Letter(s) of Credit participated in by such Bank or, in the case of a Fronting Bank, issued by it, to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Bank. No such assignment shall release the transferor Bank from its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee or pledgee for such Bank as a party hereto.
(f)    No Assignee, Participant or other transferee of any Bank’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.3 or 8.4 than such Bank would have been

97



entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent or by reason of the provisions of Section 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4 requiring such Bank to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain circumstances or at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist.
(g)    The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “ Register ”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
Section 9.7     USA Patriot Act . Each Bank hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Bank to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.
Section 9.8     Defaulting Lenders . Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)    fees shall cease to accrue on the Commitment(s) of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.8;
(b)    the Revolving Commitments and Term Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Banks or the Required Banks have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.5, except that the Defaulting Lender’s consent shall be required in connection with any increase in such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment(s) pursuant to Section 9.5(b)(i), any amendment pursuant to Section 9.5(b)(ii) affecting its Loans or pursuant to Section 9.5(z)), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Banks shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;
(c)    if any Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit exist at the time a Revolving Credit Bank becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
(i)    all or any part of such liability, if any, with respect to Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility plus such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of Swingline

98



Loans and Letter of Credit Usage does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments (it being understood that under no circumstance shall any such Revolving Credit Bank at any time be liable for any amounts in excess of its Revolving Commitment) and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2(d) and (e) are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time); and
(ii)    if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within five (5) Domestic Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Swingline Loans and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Fronting Banks only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Letter of Credit Usage (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.4(a) for so long as such Letters of Credit are outstanding;
(iii)    if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Letter of Credit Usage pursuant to this Section 9.8(c), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Letter of Credit Usage during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Letter of Credit Usage is cash collateralized;
(iv)    if the Revolving Commitment Percentage of the non-Defaulting Lenders with respect to Letter of Credit Usage is reallocated pursuant to this Section 9.8(c), then the fees payable to the Banks pursuant to this Agreement shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitment Percentages; or
(v)    if any Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of Letter of Credit Usage is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Fronting Bank or any other Bank hereunder, all Facility Fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such Revolving Commitment Percentage of Letter of Credit Usage) and Letter of Credit Fees payable under Section 2.8 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Letter of Credit Usage shall be payable to applicable the Fronting Banks until and to the extent that such Revolving Commitment Percentage of Letter of Credit Usage is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and
(d)    if such Bank is a Revolving Credit Bank, so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Fronting Banks shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the then Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Letter of Credit Usage will be 100% covered by the

99



Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 9.8(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 9.8(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).
If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Parent of any Bank shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender or any Fronting Bank has a good faith belief that any Revolving Credit Bank has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Revolving Credit Bank commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Fronting Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or a Fronting Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Revolving Credit Bank, satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Bank hereunder.
In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, and if the Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Credit Bank, the Fronting Banks and the Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Bank to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Revolving Commitment Percentages of the Banks with respect to Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Credit Bank’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Revolving Credit Bank shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Banks (other than Money Market Loans and Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Credit Bank to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its Revolving Commitment Percentage.

(a) At any time prior to the Maturity Date, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, the Borrower may, elect to request (A) an increase to the existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, the “ New Revolving Commitments ”) and/or (B) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “ New Term Commitments ”, together with the New Revolving Commitments, the “ Incremental Commitments ”), by up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $350,000,000 for all Incremental Commitments (so that after giving effect to all Incremental Commitments, the sum of the Revolving Commitments plus the principal amount of Term Loans made hereunder and pursuant to Section 2.1 does not exceed $1,100,000,000); provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate amount of the New Revolving Commitments exceed $250,000,000 or the aggregate amount of the New Term Commitments exceed $100,000,000 unless and until, in each case, approved by further action of the Board of Directors of the General Partner. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “ Increased Amount Date ”) on which the Borrower proposes that such Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent. Such Incremental Commitments shall be made either by designating a Qualified Institution not theretofore a Bank to become a Bank (such designation to be effective only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) and/or by agreeing with an existing Bank or Banks that such Bank’s Commitment shall be increased, it being understood that no such existing Bank or Banks shall have any obligation to so increase its Commitment). Any arranger for the Incremental Commitments selected by the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts, with the assistance of the Borrower, to arrange a syndicate of Banks or other Persons that are Qualified Institutions willing to hold the requested Incremental Commitments; provided that (x) any Incremental Commitments on any Increased Amount Date shall be in the minimum aggregate amount of $25,000,000, (y) any Bank approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide an Incremental

102



Commitment; provided that the Banks will first be afforded the opportunity to provide the Incremental Commitments on a pro rata basis, and if any Bank so approached fails to respond within such ten (10) Business Day period after its receipt of such request, such Bank shall be deemed to have declined to provide such Incremental Commitments, and (z) any Bank or other Person that is a Qualified Institution (each, a “ New Revolving Credit Bank ” or “ New Term Loan Bank ,” as applicable) to whom any portion of such Incremental Commitment shall be allocated shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and, in the case of a New Revolving Commitment, the Fronting Banks and the Swingline Lender (each of which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless such New Revolving Credit Bank is an existing Revolving Credit Bank (other than a Defaulting Lender) with a Revolving Commitment at such time or such New Term Loan Bank is an existing Term Loan Bank or an Affiliate of an existing Bank. Upon execution and delivery by the Borrower and such Bank or other financial institution of an instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, such existing Bank shall have a Commitment as therein set forth or such Qualified Institution shall become a Bank with a Commitment as therein set forth and all the rights and obligations of a Bank with such a Commitment hereunder; provided that :
(i)    the Borrower shall provide prompt notice of such increase to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly notify the Banks; and
(ii)    the amount of such Incremental Increase, together with all other Incremental Increases in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 9.17 since the date of this Agreement, does not cause the sum of (x) the Term Loan Amount and (y) the Revolving Loan Amount to exceed $1,100,000,000.
(b)    Upon any Incremental Commitments pursuant to this Section 9.17, within five (5) Business Days (in the case of any Base Rate Loans then outstanding) or at the end of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto (in the case of any Euro-Dollar Loans then outstanding), as applicable, each Bank’s Commitment Percentage shall be recalculated to reflect such Incremental Commitments and the outstanding principal balance of the Loans shall be reallocated among the Banks such that the outstanding principal amount of Loans owed to each Bank shall be equal to such Bank’s Commitment Percentage (as recalculated) thereof. All payments, repayments and other disbursements of funds by the Administrative Agent to Banks shall thereupon and, at all times thereafter be made in accordance with each Bank’s recalculated Commitment Percentage. For purposes hereof, “ Qualified Institution ” means a Bank, or one or more banks, finance companies, insurance or other financial institutions which (i) (A) has (or, in the case of a bank which is a subsidiary, such bank’s parent has) a rating of its senior debt obligations of not less than Baa-1 by Moody’s or a comparable rating by a rating agency acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (B) has total assets in excess of Ten Billion Dollars ($10,000,000,000), or (ii) is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.
(c)    The terms and provisions of any New Revolving Commitments shall be identical to the existing Revolving Commitments. The terms and provisions of any New Term Commitments and any New Term Loans shall (a) provide that the maturity date of any New Term Loan that is a separate tranche shall be no earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date and

103



the weighted average life to maturity of such New Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the existing Term Loans, (b) share ratably in any prepayments of the existing Term Facility, unless the Borrower and the New Term Loan Banks in respect of such New Term Loans elect lesser payments and (c) otherwise be identical to the existing Term Loans or reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and each New Term Loan Bank.
(d)    On any Increased Amount Date on which New Revolving Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the Revolving Credit Banks shall assign to each of the New Revolving Credit Banks, and each of the New Revolving Credit Banks shall purchase from each of the Revolving Credit Banks, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by existing Revolving Credit Banks and New Revolving Credit Banks ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New Revolving Commitments to the Revolving Commitments, (ii) each New Revolving Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment and each Loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan and (iii) each New Revolving Credit Bank shall become a Revolving Credit Bank with respect to its New Revolving Commitment and all matters relating thereto.
(e)    On any Increased Amount Date on which any New Term Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each New Term Loan Bank shall make a Term Loan to the Borrower (a “ New Term Loan ”) in an amount equal to its New Term Commitment, and (ii) each New Term Loan Bank shall become a Bank hereunder with respect to the New Term Commitment and the New Term Loans made pursuant thereto.
(f)    The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks promptly upon receipt of the Borrower’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (i) the New Revolving Commitments and the New Revolving Credit Banks or the New Term Commitments and the New Term Loan Banks, as applicable, and (ii) in the case of each notice to any Revolving Credit Bank, the respective interests in such Revolving Credit Bank’s Revolving Loans, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this paragraph.
(g)    The effectiveness of any Incremental Commitments and the availability of any Borrowings under any such Incremental Commitments shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent: (x) after giving pro forma effect to such Incremental Commitments and Borrowings and the use of proceeds thereof, (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) as of the last day of the most recent calendar quarter for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.1, the Borrower would have been in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 5.8; (y) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower in any Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on the effective date of such Incremental Commitments except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date); and (z) the Administrative

104



Agent shall have received each of the following, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (i) if not previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, copies certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of all corporate or other necessary action taken by the Borrower to authorize such Incremental Commitments; and (ii) a customary opinion of counsel to the Borrower (including in-house opinions in lieu of opinions of outside counsel, which may be in substantially the same form as delivered on the Closing Date), and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Banks, and (iii) if requested by any Bank, new Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any new Bank, and replacement Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any existing Bank.
(h)    The Incremental Commitments shall be evidenced pursuant to one or more Additional Credit Extension Amendments executed and delivered by the Borrower, the New Revolving Credit Banks or New Term Loan Banks, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register. Each Additional Credit Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any other Banks, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 9.17.
Section 9.18     Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section 9.19     Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the " Charges "), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the " Maximum Rate ") which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Bank holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Bank in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Bank.

105



this clause (ii) any of the “Obligations” (as defined in each of the Existing Credit Agreements) outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreements shall, for purposes of this Agreement, be Obligations hereunder, (iii) this Agreement shall not in any way release or impair the rights, duties or Obligations created pursuant to each of the Existing Credit Agreements or any other Loan Document or affect the relative priorities thereof, in each case to the extent in force and effect thereunder as of the Closing Date, except as modified hereby or by documents, instruments and agreements executed and delivered in connection herewith, and all of such rights, duties and Obligations are assumed, ratified and affirmed by the Borrower; (iv) the Obligations incurred under each of the Existing Credit Agreements shall, to the extent outstanding on the Closing Date, continue outstanding under this Agreement and shall not be deemed to be paid, released, discharged or otherwise satisfied by the execution of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall not constitute a refinancing, substitution or novation of such Obligations or any of the other rights, duties and obligations of the parties hereunder; and (v) the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Existing Credit Agreements, nor constitute a waiver of any covenant, agreement or obligation under the Existing Credit Agreements, except to the extent that any such covenant, agreement or obligation is no longer set forth herein or is modified hereby. The Lenders’ interests in such Obligations, and participations in such Letters of Credit, shall be reallocated on the Closing Date in accordance with each Lender's applicable Revolving Commitment Percentages and Term Commitment Percentages.

W I T N E S S E T H :
WHEREAS, the Borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto are parties to an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of November 28, 2012 (the “ Existing Revolving Credit Agreement ”); and
WHEREAS, the Borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and the lenders party thereto are parties to a Credit Agreement dated as of March 29, 2012, as amended to date (the “ Existing Term Loan Agreement ”, and together with the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement, collectively, the “ Existing Credit Agreements ”);
WHEREAS, in connection with the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement, Guarantor entered into that certain Amended and Restated Guaranty of Payment dated as of November 28, 2012 (the “ Existing Revolving Guaranty ”);
WHEREAS, in connection with the Existing Term Loan Agreement, Guarantor entered into that certain Guaranty of Payment dated as of March 29, 2012 (the “ Existing Term Guaranty ” and together with the Existing Revolving Guaranty, the “ Existing Guaranties ”);
WHEREAS, in connection with the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement, the parties wish to amend and restate the Existing Guaranties in their entirety; and
WHEREAS, capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree to amend and restate the Existing Guaranties in their entirety as follows:
1. Guarantor, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees the full and punctual payment and for performance when due, whether at stated maturity or otherwise, of all Obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for principal and/or interest as well as any and all other amounts due thereunder, including, without


1





limitation, all indemnity obligations of Borrower thereunder, and any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Banks in enforcing its rights under this Guaranty (all of the foregoing obligations being the “ Guaranteed Obligations ”).
2.    It is agreed that the Guaranteed Obligations of Guarantor hereunder are primary and this Guaranty shall be enforceable against Guarantor and its successors and assigns without the necessity for any suit or proceeding of any kind or nature whatsoever brought by the Administrative Agent against Borrower or its respective successors or assigns or any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations and without the necessity of any notice of non-payment or non-observance or of any notice of acceptance of this Guaranty or of any notice or demand to which Guarantor might otherwise be entitled (including, without limitation, diligence, presentment, notice of maturity, extension of time, change in nature or form of the Guaranteed Obligations, acceptance of further security, release of further security, imposition or agreement arrived at as to the amount of or the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations, notice of adverse change in Borrower’s financial condition and any other fact which might materially increase the risk to Guarantor), all of which Guarantor hereby expressly waives; and Guarantor hereby expressly agrees that the validity of this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be terminated, affected, diminished, modified or impaired by reason of the assertion of or the failure to assert by the Administrative Agent against Borrower or its respective successors or assigns, any of the rights or remedies reserved to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Documents. Guarantor agrees that any notice or directive given at any time to the Administrative Agent which is inconsistent with the waiver in the immediately preceding sentence shall be void and may be ignored by the Administrative Agent, and, in addition, may not be pleaded or introduced as evidence in any litigation relating to this Guaranty for the reason that such pleading or introduction would be at variance with the written terms of this Guaranty, unless the Administrative Agent has specifically agreed otherwise in a writing, signed by a duly authorized officer of the Administrative Agent. Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of this transaction and that, but for this Guaranty and such waivers, the Administrative Agent would decline to execute the Loan Documents.
3.    Guarantor waives, and covenants and agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, plead or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any and all appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, marshaling-of-assets or redemption laws, or right of homestead or other exemption, whether now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance by Guarantor of its obligations under, or the enforcement by the Administrative Agent of, this Guaranty. Guarantor further covenants and agrees not to set up or claim any defense, counterclaim, offset, set-off or other objection of any kind to any action, suit or proceeding in law, equity or otherwise, or to any demand or claim that may be instituted or made by the Administrative Agent other than the defense of the actual timely payment and performance by Borrower of the Guaranteed Obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed a waiver of Guarantor’s right to assert any compulsory counterclaim, if such counterclaim is compelled under local law or rule of procedure, nor shall the foregoing be deemed a waiver of Guarantor’s right to assert any claim which would constitute a defense, setoff, counterclaim or crossclaim of any nature whatsoever against Administrative Agent or any Bank in any separate action or proceeding. Guarantor

2




represents, warrants and agrees that, as of the date hereof, its obligations under this Guaranty are not subject to any counterclaims, offsets or defenses against the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks of any kind.
4.    The provisions of this Guaranty are for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks and their successors and permitted assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair as between Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the Banks the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents.
5.    This Guaranty shall be a continuing, unconditional and absolute guaranty and the liability of Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be terminated, affected, modified, impaired or diminished by reason of the happening, from time to time, of any of the following, although without notice or the further consent of Guarantor:
(a)    any assignment, amendment, modification or waiver of or change in any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Loan Documents or the invalidity or unenforceability of any of the foregoing; or
(b)    any extension of time that may be granted by the Administrative Agent and/or any Bank to Borrower, any guarantor, or their respective successors or assigns, heirs, executors, administrators or personal representatives; or
(c)    any action which the Administrative Agent may take or fail to take under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents or by reason of any waiver or, or failure to enforce any of the rights, remedies, powers or privileges available to the Administrative Agent under this Guaranty or available to the Administrative Agent at law, equity or otherwise, or any action on the part of the Administrative Agent granting indulgence or extension in any form whatsoever; or
(d)    any sale, exchange, release, or other disposition of any property pledged, mortgaged or conveyed, or any property in which the Administrative Agent and/or the Banks have been granted a lien or security interest to secure any indebtedness of Borrower to the Administrative Agent and/or the Banks; or
(e)    any release of any person or entity who may be liable in any manner for the payment and collection of any amounts owed by Borrower to the Administrative Agent and/or the Banks; or
(f)    the application of any sums by whomsoever paid or however realized to any amounts owing by Borrower to the Administrative Agent and/or the Banks under the Loan Documents in such manner as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion; or
(g)    Borrower’s or any guarantor’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale of all or substantially all of their respective assets and liabilities, appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, sequestrator or conservator for all or any part of Borrower’s or Guarantor’s assets, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment, or the

3




commencement of other similar proceedings affecting Borrower or any guarantor or any of the assets of any of them, including, without limitation, (i) the release or discharge of Borrower or any guarantor from the payment and performance of their respective obligations under any of the Loan Documents by operation of law, or (ii) the impairment, limitation or modification of the liability of Borrower or any guarantor in bankruptcy, or of any remedy for the enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations under any of the Loan Documents, or Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, resulting from the operation of any present or future provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or other present or future federal, state or applicable statute or law or from the decision in any court; or
(h)    any improper disposition by Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans, it being acknowledged by Guarantor that the Administrative Agent or any Bank shall be entitled to honor any request made by Borrower for a disbursement of such proceeds and that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Bank shall have any obligation to see to the proper disposition by Borrower of such proceeds.
6.    Guarantor agrees that if at any time all or any part of any payment at any time received by the Administrative Agent and/or any Bank from Borrower or Guarantor under or with respect to this Guaranty is or must be rescinded or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Bank for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or Guarantor), then Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall, to the extent of the payment rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence notwithstanding such previous receipt by such party, and Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or reinstated, as the case may be, as to such payment, as though such previous payment had never been made.
7.    Until this Guaranty is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof, Guarantor (i) shall have no right of subrogation against Borrower or any entity comprising same by reason of any payments or acts of performance by Guarantor in compliance with the obligations of Guarantor hereunder; (ii) waives any right to enforce any remedy which Guarantor now or hereafter shall have against Borrower or any entity comprising same by reason of any one or more payment or acts of performance in compliance with the obligations of Guarantor hereunder and (iii) subordinates any liability or indebtedness of Borrower or any entity comprising same now or hereafter held by Guarantor or any affiliate of Guarantor to the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents, provided , however , until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower or any entity comprising same shall not be prohibited from making payments to Guarantor or any affiliate thereof on such subordinated liability or indebtedness in accordance with the terms thereof. The foregoing, however, shall not be deemed in any way to limit any rights that Guarantor may have pursuant to the Agreement of Limited Partnership of Borrower or which it may have at law or in equity with respect to any other partners of Borrower.
8.    Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Banks (with the knowledge that the Administrative Agent and the Banks are relying upon the same) as of the date hereof, as follows:

4

18.    This Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks and their successors and permitted assigns; provided that the Guarantor may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Guaranty.

Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Guarantor in any other jurisdiction.
(c)    GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY AND ALL CLAIMS OR CAUSES OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY. IT IS HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGED BY

8




GUARANTOR THAT THE WAIVER OF A JURY TRIAL IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO ACCEPT THIS GUARANTY AND THAT THE LOANS MADE BY THE BANKS ARE MADE IN RELIANCE UPON SUCH WAIVER. GUARANTOR FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT SUCH WAIVER HAS BEEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE, FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS GUARANTY MAY BE FILED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN COURT AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A NON-JURY TRIAL.
(d)    Guarantor does hereby further covenant and agree to and with the Administrative Agent that Guarantor may be joined in any action against Borrower in connection with the Loan Documents and that recovery may be had against Guarantor in such action or in any independent action against Guarantor (with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations), without the Administrative Agent first pursuing or exhausting any remedy or claim against Borrower or its successors or assigns. Guarantor also agrees that, in an action brought with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations in any jurisdiction, it shall be conclusively bound by the judgment in any such action by the Administrative Agent (wherever brought) against Borrower or its successors or assigns, as if Guarantor were a party to such action, even though Guarantor was not joined as parties in such action.
(e)    Guarantor agrees to pay all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Banks in connection with the enforcement of their rights under this Guaranty, whether or not suit is initiated.
