THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP OF AIMCO OP L.P., as amended and restated as of [DATE OF SPIN-OFF] (the “Amendment Date”), is entered into by and among, Apartment Investment and Management Company, a Maryland corporation (the “Previous General Partner” or the “Special Limited Partner”), Aimco OP GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and the other Limited Partners (as defined below).

WHEREAS, Aimco OP GP, LLC, in its capacity as the general partner, has obtained, to the extent required under the Limited Partnership Agreement of Aimco OP L.P., Consent of the Limited Partners, and approved an amendment and restatement of the Limited Partnership Agreement of Aimco OP L.P. on the terms set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

DEFINED TERMS

The following definitions shall be for all purposes, unless otherwise clearly indicated to the contrary, applied to the terms used in this Agreement.

“Act” means the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, as it may be amended from time to time, and any successor to such statute.

“Actions” has the meaning set forth in Section 7.7 hereof.

“Additional Funds” has the meaning set forth in Section 4.3A hereof.

“Additional Limited Partner” means a Person who is admitted to the Partnership as a Limited Partner pursuant to Section 4.2 and Section 12.2 hereof and who is shown as such on the books and records of the Partnership.

“Adjusted Capital Account Deficit” means, with respect to any Holder, the deficit balance, if any, in such Holder’s Capital Account as of the end of the relevant Fiscal Year, after giving effect to the following adjustments:

(i) decrease such deficit by any amounts that such Holder is obligated to restore pursuant to this Agreement or by operation of law upon liquidation of such Holder’s Partnership Interest or is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentence of each of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5); and

(ii) increase such deficit by the items described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6).

The foregoing definition of “Adjusted Capital Account Deficit” is intended to comply with the provisions of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

“Adjustment Factor” means 1.0; provided, however, that in the event that:

(i) the Previous General Partner (a) declares or pays a dividend on its outstanding REIT Shares in REIT Shares or makes a distribution to all holders of its outstanding REIT Shares in REIT Shares, (b) splits or subdivides its outstanding REIT Shares or (c) effects a reverse stock split or otherwise combines its outstanding REIT Shares into a smaller number of REIT Shares, the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted by multiplying the Adjustment Factor previously in effect by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of REIT Shares issued and outstanding on the record date for such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination (assuming for such purposes that such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination has occurred as of such time) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the actual number of REIT Shares (determined without the above assumption) issued and outstanding on the record date for such dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination;

(ii) the Previous General Partner distributes any rights, options or warrants to all holders of its REIT Shares to subscribe for or to purchase or to otherwise acquire REIT Shares (or other securities or rights convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for REIT Shares) at a price per share less than the Value of a REIT Share on the record date for such distribution (each a “Distributed Right”), then the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted by multiplying the Adjustment Factor previously in effect by a fraction (a) the numerator of which shall be the number of REIT Shares issued and outstanding on the record date plus the maximum number of REIT Shares purchasable under such Distributed Rights and (b) the denominator of which shall be the number of REIT Shares issued and outstanding on the record date plus a fraction (1) the numerator of which is the maximum number of REIT Shares purchasable under such Distributed Rights times the minimum purchase price per REIT Share under such Distributed Rights and (2) the denominator of which is the Value of a REIT Share as of the record date; provided, however, that, if any such Distributed Rights expire or become no longer exercisable, then the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted, effective retroactive to the date of distribution of the Distributed Rights, to reflect a reduced maximum number of REIT Shares or any change in the minimum purchase price for the purposes of the above fraction; and

2

(iii) the Previous General Partner shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its REIT Shares evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including securities, but excluding any dividend or distribution referred to in subsection (i) above), which evidences of indebtedness or assets relate to assets not received by the Previous General Partner and/or the General Partner pursuant to a pro rata distribution by the Partnership, then the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted to equal the amount determined by multiplying the Adjustment Factor in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator shall be such Value of a REIT Share on the date fixed for such determination and (ii) the denominator shall be the Value of a REIT Share on the dates fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (as determined by the General Partner, whose determination shall be conclusive) of the portion of the evidences of indebtedness or assets so distributed applicable to one REIT Share.

Any adjustments to the Adjustment Factor shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event, retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any transaction described above with respect to REIT Shares that would otherwise require an adjustment to the Adjustment Factor, no such adjustment shall be made if the Partnership concurrently effects a similar and proportional transaction with respect to the Partnership Common Units. If the Previous General Partner makes an Elective Dividend, no adjustment to the Adjustment Factor shall be made if the Partnership concurrently makes a distribution to Holders of Partnership Common Units in an amount per Unit consisting of either (x) (i) a number of Partnership Common Units (or fraction thereof) equal to the aggregate number of REIT Shares paid as a dividend with respect to all REIT Shares, divided by the total number of REIT Shares outstanding as of the record date for such dividend, and (ii) cash in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of cash paid as a dividend with respect to all REIT Shares, divided by the total number of REIT Shares outstanding as of the record date for such dividend, or (y) cash in an amount equal to the aggregate value, as determined in good faith by the General Partner, of both the REIT Shares and the cash paid as a dividend with respect to all REIT Shares, divided by the total number of REIT Shares outstanding as of the record date for such dividend (the portion of such cash amount in clause (y) that is attributable to the value of the REIT Shares paid as a dividend is referred to herein as the “Elective Dividend Cash Payment”). For illustrative purposes, examples of adjustments to the Adjustment Factor are set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto.

“Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under common control with such Person. For the purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any Person means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise, and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing.

Without limiting the foregoing, the General Partner is expressly authorized to cause the Partnership to issue Partnership Units (i) upon the conversion, redemption or exchange of any Debt, Partnership Units or other securities issued by the Partnership, (ii) for less than fair market value, so long as the General Partner concludes in good faith that such issuance is in the best interests of the General Partner and the Partnership, and (iii) in connection with any merger of any other Person into the Partnership if the applicable merger agreement provides that Persons are to receive Partnership Units in exchange for their interests in the Person merging into the Partnership. Subject to Delaware law, any additional Partnership Interests may be issued in one or more classes, or one or more series of any of such classes, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, powers and duties as shall be determined by the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion without the approval of any

B. Additional Capital Contributions. The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may obtain any Additional Funds by accepting Capital Contributions from any Partners or other Persons and issuing additional Partnership Units in consideration therefor.

26

C. Loans by Third Parties. The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may obtain any Additional Funds by causing the Partnership to incur Debt to any Person (other than the Previous General Partner or the General Partner) upon such terms as the General Partner determines appropriate, including making such Debt convertible, redeemable or exchangeable for Partnership Units; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not incur any such Debt if (i) a breach, violation or default of such Debt would be deemed to occur by virtue of the Transfer of any Partnership Interest, or (ii) such Debt is recourse to any Partner (unless the Partner otherwise agrees).

D. General Partner Loans. The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may obtain any Additional Funds by causing the Partnership to incur Debt with the Previous General Partner or the General Partner (each, a “General Partner Loan”) if (i) such Debt is, to the extent permitted by law, on substantially the same terms and conditions (including interest rate, repayment schedule, and conversion, redemption, repurchase and exchange rights) as Funding Debt incurred by the Previous General Partner or the General Partner, the net proceeds of which are loaned to the Partnership to provide such Additional Funds, or (ii) such Debt is on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Partnership than would be available to the Partnership from any third party; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not incur any such Debt if (a) a breach, violation or default of such Debt would be deemed to occur by virtue of the Transfer of any Partnership Interest, or (b) such Debt is recourse to any Partner (unless the Partner otherwise agrees).

E. Issuance of Securities by the Previous General Partner. The Previous General Partner shall not issue any additional REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities unless (i) the Previous General Partner contributes or is deemed to contribute the cash proceeds or other consideration received from the issuance of such additional REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities, as the case may be, and from the exercise of the rights contained in any such additional New Securities, to either or both of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner, and (ii) it or they, as the case may be, contributes or is deemed to contribute such cash proceeds or other consideration to the Partnership in exchange for (x) in the case of an issuance of REIT Shares, Partnership Common Units, or (y) in the case of an issuance of Preferred Shares or New Securities, Partnership Units with designations, preferences and other rights, terms and provisions that are substantially the same as the designations, preferences and other rights, terms and provisions of such Preferred Shares or New Securities; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Previous General Partner may issue REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities (a) pursuant to Section 4.4 or Section 8.6B hereof, (b) pursuant to a dividend or distribution (including any stock split) of REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities to all of the holders of REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities, as the case may be, (c) upon a conversion, redemption or exchange of Preferred Shares, (d) upon a conversion, redemption, exchange or exercise of New Securities, or (e) in connection with an acquisition of a property or other asset to be owned, directly or indirectly, by the Previous General Partner if the General Partner determines that such acquisition is in the best interests of the Partnership. In the event of any issuance of additional REIT Shares, Preferred Shares or New Securities by the Previous General Partner, and the contribution or deemed contribution to the Partnership, by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner, of the cash proceeds or other consideration received from such issuance, the Partnership shall pay the Previous General Partner’s expenses associated with such issuance, including any underwriting discounts or commissions.

A. Options Granted to Company Employees, Spinco Employees, Independent Directors and Spinco Directors. If at any time or from time to time, in connection with the Previous General Partner’s Stock Option Plans, a stock option or other award granted to or held by a Company Employee, Spinco Employee, Independent Director or Spinco Director is duly exercised or with respect to awards other than stock options, vested:

(3) An equitable Percentage Interest adjustment shall be made in which the Special Limited Partners shall be treated as having made a cash contribution equal to the amount described in Section 4.4A(2) hereof.

B. Options Granted to Partnership Employees or Spinco OP Employees. If at any time or from time to time, in connection with the Previous General Partner’s Stock Option Plans, a stock option or other award granted to or held by a Partnership Employee or a Spinco OP Employee is duly exercised or with respect to awards other than stock options, vested:

(1) With respect to awards other than stock options, the Previous General Partner shall issue such number of REIT Shares as are to be issued to the Partnership Employee or Spinco OP Employee, as applicable, in accordance with the Stock Option Plan and, with respect to stock options and other awards, the General Partner shall cause the Previous General Partner to sell (or shall be deemed to have sold such shares) to the Partnership, and the Partnership shall purchase from the Previous General Partner, the number of REIT Shares as to which such stock option is being exercised or other award is vesting.

ARTICLE 5

DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 5.1 Requirement and Characterization of Distributions. Subject to the terms of any Partnership Unit Designation, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to distribute quarterly all, or such portion as the General Partner may in its sole and absolute discretion determine, of Available Cash generated by the Partnership during such quarter to the Holders of Partnership Common Units as follows: (i) the Non-Aimco Holders Sharing Percentage to the Non-Aimco Holders, and (ii) the Aimco Partners Sharing Percentage to the Aimco Partners, in each case, allocated among them based on their ownership of Partnership Common Units. The General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion may distribute to the Unitholders Available Cash on a more frequent basis and provide for an appropriate record date. The General Partner shall take such reasonable efforts, as determined by it in its sole and absolute discretion and consistent with the Previous General Partner’s qualification as a REIT, to cause the Partnership to distribute amounts sufficient to enable the Aimco Partners to transfer funds to the Previous General Partner that, together with amounts received by the Previous General Partner from sources other than the Partnership, will allow the Previous General Partner to pay stockholder dividends that will (a) satisfy the requirements for qualifying as a REIT under the Code and Regulations (the “REIT Requirements”) and (b) avoid any federal income or excise tax liability of the Previous General Partner.

Section 5.2 Distributions in Kind. No right is given to any Non-Aimco Holder to demand and receive property other than cash as provided in this Agreement. The General Partner may determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, to make a distribution in kind of Partnership assets (a) to all Unitholders, in which case 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 hereof, or (b) only to the Aimco Partners and not to any Non-Aimco Holders if, after giving effect to such distribution to the Aimco Partners, the net asset value of the Partnership, as reasonably determined by the General Partner in good faith, would exceed 200% of the sum of (i) the product of (x) the number of Partnership Common Units then held by Non-Aimco Holders, (y) the Value of a REIT Share, and (z) the Adjustment Factor, and (ii) the aggregate liquidation preference of all outstanding Partnership Preferred Units (all calculated as of the date of such distribution).

Section 5.3 Amounts Withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any state or local tax law and Section 10.5 hereof with respect to any allocation, payment or distribution to any Unitholder shall be treated as amounts paid or distributed to such Unitholder pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof for all purposes under this Agreement.

Section 5.4 Distributions Upon Liquidation. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 5, net proceeds from a Terminating Capital Transaction, and any other cash received or reductions in reserves made after commencement of the liquidation of the Partnership, shall be distributed to the Unitholders in accordance with Section 13.2 hereof.

30

Section 5.5 Restricted Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither the Partnership nor the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, shall make a distribution to any Unitholder on account of its Partnership Interest or interest in Partnership Units if such distribution would violate Section 17-607 of the Act or other applicable law.

ARTICLE 6

ALLOCATIONS

Section 6.1 Timing and Amount of Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss. Subject to Section 11.6C hereof, Net Income and Net Loss of the Partnership shall be determined and allocated with respect to each Fiscal Year of the Partnership as of the end of each such year. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 6, and subject to Section 11.6C hereof, an allocation to a Unitholder of a share of Net Income or Net Loss shall be treated as an allocation of the same share of each item of income, gain, loss or deduction that is taken into account in computing Net Income or Net Loss.

Section 6.2 General Allocations. Subject to the terms of any Partnership Unit Designation, and except as otherwise provided in this Article 6 and subject to Section 11.6C hereof, all Net Income and Net Loss of the Partnership for any relevant Fiscal Year (or other taxable year or taxable period) will be allocated as follows:

A. Net Income. Net Income shall be allocated in the following manner and order of priority:

(1) First, to each Holder, in an amount that will cause such allocation, together with the amount of all previous allocations of Net Income pursuant to this Section 6.2A(1) after the Amendment Date, to be equal to the cumulative distributions received by such Holder with respect to its Partnership Common Units pursuant to (i) Section 5.1, and (ii) in connection with an Elective Dividend by the Previous General Partner (provided that any distribution described in this clause (ii) shall be limited to the Elective Dividend Cash Payment received by such Holder), for all taxable periods beginning on and after the Amendment Date;

(2) Second, any remaining Net Income to each Holder in proportion to, and to the extent that, the amount of cumulative Net Loss previously allocated to such Holder exceeds the cumulative amount of Net Income previously allocated to such Holder pursuant to this Section 6.2A(2), in each case after the Amendment Date; and

(3) Third, with respect to all other Net Income, the Non-Aimco Holders Sharing Percentage to the Non-Aimco Holders, and the Aimco Partners Sharing Percentage to the Aimco Partners, on a pari passu basis.

B. Net Loss. Net Loss shall be allocated, subject, however, to the limitation set forth in Section 6.2C, to the Non-Aimco Holders in proportion to the Non-Aimco Holders Sharing Percentage, and to the Aimco Partners in proportion to the Aimco Partners Sharing Percentage, on a pari passu basis.

31

C. Net Loss Limitation. Any Net Loss allocated pursuant to Section 6.2B will not exceed the maximum amount of Net Loss that can be so allocated without causing any Holder to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Fiscal Year. In the event that any but not all of the Holders would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as a consequence of an allocation of Net Loss pursuant to Section 6.2B, the limitation set forth in the immediately preceding sentence will be applied on a Holder-by-Holder basis so as to allocate the maximum permissible Net Loss to each Holder under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).

D. Liquidating Event. If a Liquidating Event occurs in a Partnership taxable year, Net Income and Net Loss (or, if necessary, separate items of income, gain, loss and deduction constituting such Net Income and Net Loss) for such taxable year and any prior taxable years (to the extent permitted by Section 761(c) of the Code) shall be allocated among the Holders in such amounts as will cause, to the greatest extent possible, the Capital Account of each Non-Aimco Holder to equal the amount such Non-Aimco Holder would be entitled to receive were such Holder to require the Partnership to redeem all of such Holder’s Partnership Common Units pursuant to Section 8.6. If the Gross Asset Values of the Partnership’s assets are adjusted in accordance with subparagraph (b) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value,” after items are allocated pursuant to Sections 6.2A(1) and (2) and Section 6.2B, such adjustments shall be allocated in accordance with this Section 6.2D.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Partnership Representative in its discretion is expressly authorized to take any action necessary or appropriate to comply with the Partnership Audit Procedures, and to appropriately allocate the burden of any assessments thereunder among the Partners (as determined in the sole good faith judgment of the General Partner).

Section 6.3 Additional Allocation Provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 6:

A. Intentionally Omitted.

B. Regulatory Allocations.

(1) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2 hereof, or any other provision of this Article 6, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year, each Holder of Partnership Common Units 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 Partnership Minimum Gain, as determined under Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). 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 allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3B(1) is intended to qualify as a “minimum gain chargeback” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

32

(2) Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) or in Section 6.3B(1) hereof, if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Fiscal Year, each Holder of Partnership Common Units 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 1.7042(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each General Partner, Limited Partner and other 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 6.3B(2) is intended to qualify as a “chargeback of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(3) Nonrecourse Deductions and Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Holders of Partnership Common Units in accordance with their Partnership 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 Section 1.704-2(i).

(4) Qualified Income Offset. If any Holder of Partnership Common Units 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 such Holder in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Holder as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3B(4) 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 6.3B(4) were not in the Agreement. It is intended that this Section 6.3B(4) qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(5) Gross Income Allocation. In the event that any Holder of Partnership Common Units has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Fiscal Year that is in excess of the sum of (1) the amount (if any) that such Holder is obligated to restore to the Partnership upon complete liquidation of such Holder’s Partnership Interest (including, the Holder’s interest in outstanding Partnership Preferred Units and other Partnership Units) and (2) the amount that such Holder is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to 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 to eliminate such deficit as quickly as possible,

33

provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3B(5) 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 6.3B(5) and Section 6.3B(4) hereof were not in the Agreement.

(6) Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent that 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 of Partnership Common Units in complete liquidation of its 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 Partnership Common Units 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.

(7) Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections 6.3B(1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) hereof (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 Section 6.1 hereof, the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Holders of Partnership Common Units so that to the extent possible without violating the requirements giving rise to the Regulatory Allocations, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Holder of a Partnership Common Unit shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Holder if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

C. Allocation of Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities. 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 share of Partnership Common Units.

Section 6.4 Tax Allocations.

A. In General. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.4, for income tax purposes under the Code and the Regulations each Partnership item of income, gain, loss and deduction (collectively, “Tax Items”) shall be allocated among the Holders of Partnership Common Units 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 hereof.

B. Allocations Respecting Section 704(c) Revaluations. Notwithstanding Section 6.4A hereof, Tax Items with respect to Property that is contributed to the Partnership with a Gross Asset Value that varies from its basis in the hands of the contributing Partner immediately preceding the date of contribution shall be allocated among the Holders of

34

Partnership Common Units for income tax purposes pursuant to Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(c) so as to take into account such variation. The Partnership shall account for such variation under any method approved under Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations as chosen by the General Partner, including, without limitation, the “traditional method” as described in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b). In the event that the Gross Asset Value of any partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to subsection (b) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value” (provided in Article 1 hereof), 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 Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations.

ARTICLE 7

(9) the maintenance of such insurance for the benefit of the Partnership and the Partners as it deems necessary or appropriate;

(10) the formation of, or acquisition of an interest in, and the contribution of property to, any further limited or general partnerships, limited liability companies, joint ventures or other relationships that it deems desirable (including, without limitation, the acquisition of interests in, and the contributions of property to, any

Subsidiary and any other Person in which it has an equity investment from time to time); provided, however, that, as long as the Special Limited Partner has determined to continue to qualify as a REIT, the General Partner may not engage in any such formation, acquisition or contribution that would cause the Special Limited Partner to fail to qualify as a REIT or the General Partner or another wholly owned subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner to fail to qualify as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2);

(11) the control of any matters affecting the rights and obligations of the Partnership, including the settlement, compromise, submission to arbitration or any other form of dispute resolution, or abandonment, of any claim, cause of action, liability, debt or damages, due or owing to or from the Partnership, the commencement or defense of suits, legal proceedings, administrative proceedings, arbitrations or other forms of dispute resolution, and the representation of the Partnership in all suits or legal proceedings, administrative proceedings, arbitrations or other forms of dispute resolution, the incurring of legal expense, and the indemnification of any Person against liabilities and contingencies to the extent permitted by law;

The execution, delivery or performance by the General Partner or the Partnership of any agreement authorized or permitted under this Agreement shall not constitute a breach by the General Partner of any duty that the General Partner may owe the Partnership or the Limited Partners or any other Persons under this Agreement or of any duty stated or implied by law or equity.

C. At all times from and after the date hereof, the General Partner may cause the Partnership to obtain and maintain (i) casualty, liability and other insurance on the Properties of the Partnership and (ii) liability insurance for the Indemnitees hereunder.

D. At all times from and after the date hereof, the General Partner may cause the Partnership to establish and maintain working capital and other reserves in such amounts as the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems appropriate and reasonable from time to time.

E. In exercising its authority under this Agreement, the General Partner may, but shall be under no obligation to, take into account the tax consequences to any Partner (including the General Partner) of any action taken by it. The General Partner and the Partnership shall not have liability to a Limited Partner under any circumstances as a result of an income tax liability incurred by such Limited Partner as a result of an action (or inaction) by the General Partner pursuant to its authority under this Agreement so long as the action or inaction is taken in good faith.

Section 7.2 Certificate of Limited Partnership. To the extent that such action is determined by the General Partner to be reasonable and necessary or appropriate, the General Partner shall file amendments to and restatements of the Certificate and do all the things to maintain the Partnership as a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the limited partners have limited liability) under the laws of the State of Delaware and each other state, the District of Columbia or any other jurisdiction, in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property. Subject to the terms of Section 8.5A(4) hereof, the General Partner shall not be required, before or after filing, to deliver or mail a copy of the Certificate or any amendment thereto to any Limited Partner. The General Partner shall use all reasonable efforts to cause to be

38

filed such other certificates or documents as may be reasonable and necessary or appropriate for the formation, continuation, qualification and operation of a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the limited partners have limited liability to the extent provided by applicable law) in the State of Delaware and any other state, or the District of Columbia or other jurisdiction, in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property.

Section 7.3 Restrictions on General Partner’s Authority.

(1) take any action that would make it impossible to carry on the ordinary business of the Partnership, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement;

(4) to satisfy any requirements, conditions or guidelines contained in any order, directive, opinion, ruling or regulation of a federal or state agency or contained in federal or state law;

(5) (a) to reflect such changes as are reasonably necessary (i) for the General Partner or any other wholly owned subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner, as the case may be, to maintain its status as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) or (ii) for the Special Limited Partner to maintain its status as a REIT or to satisfy the REIT Requirements; (b) to reflect the Transfer of all or any part of a Partnership Interest among the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner or any “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) with respect to the Special Limited Partner;

(6) to modify the manner in which Capital Accounts are computed (but only to the extent set forth in the definition of “Capital Account” or contemplated by the Code or the Regulations); and

(7) the issuance of additional Partnership Interests in accordance with Section 4.2.

The General Partner will provide notice to the Limited Partners when any action under this Section 7.3C is taken.

40

D. Notwithstanding Sections 7.3B and 7.3C hereof, this Agreement shall not be amended, and no action may be taken by the General Partner, without the Consent of each Partner adversely affected, if such amendment or action would (i) convert a Limited Partner Interest in the Partnership into a General Partner Interest (except as a result of the General Partner acquiring such Partnership Interest), (ii) modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner, (iii) alter the rights of any Partner to receive the distributions to which such Partner is entitled, pursuant to Article 5 or Section 13.2A(4) hereof, or alter the allocations specified in Article 6 hereof (except, in any case, as permitted pursuant to Sections 4.2 and 7.3C hereof), (iv) alter or modify the Redemption rights, Cash Amount or REIT Shares Amount as set forth in Sections 8.6 and 11.2 hereof, or amend or modify any related definitions, or (v) amend this Section 7.3D; provided, however, that the Consent of each Partner adversely affected shall not be required for any amendment or action that affects all Partners holding the same class or series of Partnership Units on a uniform or pro rata basis. Further, no amendment may alter the restrictions on the General Partner’s authority set forth elsewhere in this Section 7.3 without the Consent specified therein. Any such amendment or action consented to by any Partner shall be effective as to that Partner, notwithstanding the absence of such consent by any other Partner.

Section 7.4 Reimbursement of the General Partner.

A. The General Partner shall not be compensated for its services as general partner of the Partnership except as provided in elsewhere in this Agreement (including the provisions of Articles 5 and 6 hereof regarding distributions, payments and allocations to which it may be entitled in its capacity as the General Partner).

B. Subject to Sections 7.4C and 15.11 hereof, the Partnership shall be liable for, and shall reimburse the General Partner on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partner may determine in its sole and absolute discretion, for all sums expended in connection with the Partnership’s business, including, without limitation, (i) expenses relating to the ownership of interests in and management and operation of, or for the benefit of, the Partnership, (ii) compensation of officers and employees, including, without limitation, payments under future compensation plans of the General Partner that may provide for stock units, or other phantom stock, pursuant to which employees of the General Partner will receive payments based upon dividends on or the value of REIT Shares, (iii) director fees and expenses; (iv) all costs and expenses of the General Partner being a public company, including costs of filings with the SEC, reports and other distributions to its shareholders and (v) income taxes or other similar types of costs, including but not limited to franchise taxes or related fees (in lieu of reimbursement, the Partnership may instead (in whole or in part) specially allocate income as necessary to reimburse the General Partner in full); provided, however, that the amount of any reimbursement shall be reduced by any interest earned by the General Partner with respect to bank accounts or other instruments or accounts held by it on behalf of the Partnership as permitted pursuant to Section 7.5 hereof. Such reimbursements shall be in addition to any reimbursement of the General Partner as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof.

C. To the extent practicable, Partnership expenses shall be billed directly to and paid by the Partnership and, subject to Section 15.11 hereof, reimbursements to the General Partner or any of its Affiliates by the Partnership pursuant to this Section 7.4 shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning of Code Section 707(c).

41

Section 7.5 Outside Activities of the Previous General Partner and the General Partner. Neither the General Partner nor the Previous General Partner shall directly or indirectly enter into or conduct any business, other than in connection with (a) the ownership, acquisition and disposition of Partnership Interests as General Partner, (b) the management of the business of the Partnership, (c) the operation of the Previous General Partner as a reporting company with a class (or classes) of securities registered under the Exchange Act, (d) the Special Limited Partner’s operations as a REIT, (e) the offering, sale, syndication, private placement or public offering of stock, bonds, securities or other interests, (f) financing or refinancing of any type, (g) the qualification of the General Partner or any other wholly owned subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)), (h) the acquisition, ownership, financing, operation, management and disposition of assets held directly by the Special Limited Partner, any of the Aimco Partners or any of their Subsidiaries, excluding the Partnership, and (i) such activities as are incidental thereto. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prohibit the General Partner or the Previous General Partner from executing guarantees of Partnership debt for which it would otherwise be liable in its capacity as General Partner. The General Partner and any Affiliates of the General Partner may acquire Limited Partner Interests and shall be entitled to exercise all rights of a Limited Partner relating to such Limited Partner Interests.

Section 7.6 Contracts with Affiliates.

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

B. Except as provided in Section 7.5 hereof and subject to Section 3.1 hereof, the Partnership may transfer assets to joint ventures, limited liability companies, partnerships, corporations, business trusts 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 as the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, believes to be advisable.

C. Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, neither the General Partner nor any of its Affiliates shall sell, transfer or convey any property to the Partnership, directly or indirectly, except pursuant to transactions that are determined by the General Partner in good faith to be fair and reasonable.

D. 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 or any of the Partnership’s Subsidiaries.

E. 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.

42

Section 7.7 Indemnification.

A. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Partnership shall indemnify each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and other 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 (“Actions”) as set forth in this Agreement in which such Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not indemnify an Indemnitee (i) for willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the law or (ii) for any transaction for which such Indemnitee received an improper personal benefit in violation or breach of any provision of this Agreement. 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. It is the intention of this Section 7.7A that the Partnership indemnify each Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard of conduct set forth in this Section 7.7A. The termination of any proceeding by conviction of an Indemnitee or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent by an Indemnitee, or an entry of an order of probation against an Indemnitee prior to judgment, does not create a presumption that such Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified in this Section 7.7A with respect to the subject matter of such proceeding. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership, and neither the General Partner nor any Limited Partner shall have any obligation to contribute to the capital of the Partnership or otherwise provide funds to enable the Partnership to fund its obligations under this Section 7.7.

B. To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses incurred by an Indemnitee who is a party to a proceeding or otherwise subject to or the focus of or is involved in any Action shall be paid or reimbursed by the Partnership as incurred by the Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of the Action upon receipt by the Partnership of (i) a written affirmation by the Indemnitee of the Indemnitee’s good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Partnership as authorized in this Section 7.7B 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 and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitee unless otherwise provided in a written agreement with such Indemnitee or in the writing pursuant to which such Indemnitee is indemnified.

43

D. The Partnership may, but shall not be obligated to, purchase and maintain insurance, on behalf of any of the Indemnitees and such other Persons as the General Partner shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by such Person in connection with the Partnership’s activities, regardless of whether the Partnership would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

E. Any liabilities which an Indemnitee incurs as a result of acting on behalf of the Partnership or the General Partner (whether as a fiduciary or otherwise) in connection with the operation, administration or maintenance of an employee benefit plan or any related trust or funding mechanism (whether such liabilities are in the form of excise taxes assessed by the IRS, penalties assessed by the Department of Labor, restitutions to such a plan or trust or other funding mechanism or to a participant or beneficiary of such plan, trust or other funding mechanism, or otherwise) shall be treated as liabilities or judgments or fines under this Section 7.7, unless such liabilities arise as a result of (i) such Indemnitee’s intentional misconduct or knowing violation of the law, or (ii) any transaction in which such Indemnitee received a personal benefit in violation or breach of any provision of this Agreement or applicable law.

F. In no event may an Indemnitee subject any of the 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 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. It is the intent of the Partners that any amounts paid by the Partnership to the General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning of Code Section 707(c).

44

Section 7.8 Liability of the General Partner.

A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, neither the General Partner nor any of its directors or officers shall be liable or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Partnership, any Partners or any Assignees for losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived as a result of errors in judgment or mistakes of fact or law or of any act or omission if the General Partner or such director or officer 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 shareholders collectively and that the General Partner is under no obligation to give priority to the separate interests of the Limited Partners or the General Partner’s shareholders (including, without limitation, the tax consequences to Limited Partners, Assignees or the General Partner’s shareholders) in deciding whether to cause the Partnership to take (or decline to take) any actions.

C. Subject to its obligations and duties as General Partner set forth in Section 7.1A hereof, the General Partner may exercise any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its employees or agents (subject to the supervision and control of the General Partner). The General Partner shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent appointed by it in good faith.

D. 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 General Partner’s, and its officers’ and directors’, liability 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.

E. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except for fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, or pursuant to any express indemnities given to the Partnership by any Partner pursuant to any other written instrument, no Partner shall have any personal liability whatsoever, to the Partnership or to the other Partner(s), for the debts or liabilities of the Partnership or the Partnership’s obligations hereunder, and the full recourse of the other Partner(s) shall be limited to the interest of that Partner in the Partnership. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no officer, director or shareholder of the General Partner shall be liable to the Partnership for money damages except for (i) active and deliberate dishonesty established by a non-appealable final judgment or (ii) actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services. Without limitation of the foregoing, and except for fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, or pursuant to any such express indemnity, no property or assets of any Partner, other than its interest in the Partnership, shall be subject to levy, execution or other enforcement procedures for the satisfaction of any judgment (or other judicial process) in favor of any other Partner(s) and arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement. This Agreement is executed by the officers of the General Partner solely as officers of the same and not in their own individual capacities.

45

F. To the extent that, at law or in equity, the General Partner has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Partnership or the Limited Partners, the General Partner shall not be liable to the Partnership or to any other Partner for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the General Partner otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Partners to replace such other duties and liabilities of such General Partner.

Section 7.9 Other Matters Concerning the General Partner.

A. The General Partner may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

B. The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers, architects, engineers, environmental consultants and other consultants and advisers selected by it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the opinion of such Persons as to matters that the General Partner reasonably believes to be within such Person’s professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion.

C. The General Partner shall have the right, in respect of any of its powers or obligations hereunder, to act through any of its duly authorized officers and a duly appointed attorney or attorneys-in-fact. Each such attorney shall, to the extent provided by the General Partner in the power of attorney, have full power and authority to do and perform all and every act and duty that is permitted or required to be done by the General Partner hereunder.

D. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Act, any action of the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership or any decision of the General Partner to refrain from acting on behalf of the Partnership, undertaken in the good faith belief that such action or omission is necessary or advisable in order (i) to protect the ability of the Special Limited Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT, (ii) for the Special Limited Partner otherwise to satisfy the REIT Requirements, (iii) to avoid the Special Limited Partner incurring any taxes under Code Section 857 or Code Section 4981 or (iv) for the General Partner or any wholly owned subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner, as the case may be, to continue to qualify as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)), is expressly authorized under this Agreement and is deemed approved by all of the Limited Partners.

Section 7.10 Title to Partnership Assets. Title to Partnership assets, whether real, personal or mixed and whether tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Partnership as an entity, and no Partner, individually or collectively with other Partners or Persons, shall have any ownership interest in such Partnership assets or any portion thereof. Title to any or all of the Partnership assets may be held in the name of the Partnership, the General Partner or one or more nominees, as the General Partner may determine, including Affiliates of the General Partner. The General Partner hereby declares and warrants that any Partnership assets for which legal title is held in the name of the General Partner or any nominee or Affiliate of the General Partner shall be held by the General Partner for the use and benefit of the

46

Partnership in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the General Partner shall use its best efforts to cause beneficial and record title to such assets to be vested in the Partnership as soon as reasonably practicable. All Partnership assets shall be recorded as the property of the Partnership in its books and records, irrespective of the name in which legal title to such Partnership assets is held.

Section 7.11 Reliance by Third Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Person dealing with the Partnership shall be entitled to assume that the General Partner has full power and authority, without the consent or approval of any other Partner or Person, to encumber, sell or otherwise use in any manner any and all assets of the Partnership and to enter into any contracts on behalf of the Partnership, and take any and all actions on behalf of the Partnership, and such Person shall be entitled to deal with the General Partner as if it were the Partnership’s sole party in interest, both legally and beneficially. Each Limited Partner hereby waives any and all defenses or other remedies that may be available against such Person to contest, negate or disaffirm any action of the General Partner in connection with any such dealing. In no event shall any Person dealing with the General Partner or its representatives be obligated to ascertain that the terms of this Agreement have been complied with or to inquire into the necessity or expediency of any act or action of the General Partner or its representatives. Each and every certificate, document or other instrument executed on behalf of the Partnership by the General Partner or its representatives shall be conclusive evidence in favor of any and every Person relying thereon or claiming thereunder that (i) at the time of the execution and delivery of such certificate, document or instrument, this Agreement was in full force and effect, (ii) the Person executing and delivering such certificate, document or instrument was duly authorized and empowered to do so for and on behalf of the Partnership and (iii) such certificate, document or instrument was duly executed and delivered in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and is binding upon the Partnership.

The transaction of any such business by the General Partner, any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, member, employee, partner, agent, representative, or trustee of the General Partner, the Partnership or any of their Affiliates, in their capacity as such, shall not affect, impair or eliminate the limitations on the liability of the Limited Partners or Assignees under this Agreement.

Section 8.4 Return of Capital. Except pursuant to the rights of Redemption set forth in Section 8.6 hereof, no Limited Partner shall be entitled to the withdrawal or return of its Capital Contribution, except to the extent of distributions made pursuant to this Agreement or upon termination of the Partnership as provided herein. Except to the extent provided in Article 6 hereof or otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no Limited Partner or Assignee shall have priority over any other Limited Partner or Assignee either as to the return of Capital Contributions or as to profits, losses or distributions.

Section 8.5 Rights of Limited Partners Relating to the Partnership.

A. In addition to other rights provided by this Agreement or by the Act, and except as limited by Section 8.5C hereof, each Limited Partner shall have the right, for a purpose reasonably related to such Limited Partner’s interest as a limited partner in the Partnership, upon written demand with a statement of the purpose of such demand and at such Limited Partner’s own expense:

(1) to obtain a copy of (i) the most recent annual and quarterly reports filed with the SEC by the Previous General Partner or the General Partner pursuant to the Exchange Act and (ii) each report or other written communication sent to the shareholders of the Previous General Partner;

(2) to obtain a copy of the Partnership’s federal, state and local income tax returns for each Fiscal Year;

(3) to obtain a current list of the name and last known business, residence or mailing address of each Partner;

48

(4) to obtain a copy of this Agreement and the Certificate and all amendments thereto, together with executed copies of all powers of attorney pursuant to which this Agreement, the Certificate and all amendments thereto have been executed; and

(5) to obtain true and full information regarding the amount of cash and a description and statement of any other property or services contributed by each Partner and that each Partner has agreed to contribute in the future, and the date on which each became a Partner.

B. The Partnership shall notify any Limited Partner that is a Qualifying Party, on request, of the then current Adjustment Factor or any change made to the Adjustment Factor.

C. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.5, the General Partner may keep confidential from the Limited Partners, for such period of time as the General Partner determines in its sole and absolute discretion to be reasonable, any information that (i) the General Partner believes to be in the nature of trade secrets or other information the disclosure of which the General Partner in good faith believes is not in the best interests of the Partnership or the General Partner or (ii) the Partnership or the General Partner is required by law or by agreements with unaffiliated third parties to keep confidential.

Section 8.6 Redemption Rights of Qualifying Parties.

A. After the first Twelve-Month Period, a Qualifying Party, but no other Limited Partner or Assignee, shall have the right (subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein) to require the Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the Redeemable Units held by such Tendering Party (such Redeemable Units being hereafter “Tendered Units”) in exchange (a “Redemption”) for REIT Shares issuable or the Cash Amount payable (as determined by the Partnership in its sole discretion) on the Specified Redemption Date. Any Redemption shall be exercised pursuant to a Notice of Redemption delivered to the General Partner by the Qualifying Party when exercising the Redemption right (the “Tendering Party”). To be effective, such Notice of Redemption must be received by the Partnership at least forty-five (45) days prior to the Specified Redemption Date. On or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date, the Partnership may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to cause the Previous General Partner to acquire some or all of the Tendered Units from the Tendering Party in exchange for REIT Shares pursuant to the terms set forth in Section 8.6B. A Tendering Party shall have no right to receive distributions with respect to any Tendered Units (other than the Cash Amount) paid after delivery of the Notice of Redemption, whether or not the Partnership Record Date for such distribution precedes or coincides with such delivery of the Notice of Redemption. If the Partnership elects to redeem Tendered Units for cash, the Cash Amount shall be delivered as a certified check payable to the Tendering Party or, in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion, in immediately available funds.

B. If the Partnership elects to redeem Tendered Units for REIT Shares rather than cash, then the Partnership shall direct the Previous General Partner to issue and deliver such REIT Shares to the Tendering Party pursuant to the terms set forth in this Section 8.6B, in which case, (i) the Previous General Partner, acting as a distinct legal entity, shall assume directly the

49

obligation with respect thereto and shall satisfy the Tendering Party’s exercise of its Redemption right, and (ii) such transaction shall be treated, for federal income tax purposes, as a transfer by the Tendering Party of such Tendered Units to the Previous General Partner in exchange for REIT Shares. The percentage of the Tendered Units tendered for Redemption by the Tendering Party for which the Partnership elects to cause the Previous General Partner to issue REIT Shares (rather than cash) is referred to as the “Applicable Percentage.” In making such election to cause the Previous General Partner to acquire Tendered Units, the Partnership shall act in a fair, equitable and reasonable manner that neither prefers one group or class of Qualifying Parties over another nor discriminates against a group or class of Qualifying Parties. If the Partnership (i) elects to redeem any number of Tendered Units for REIT Shares, rather than cash, on the Specified Redemption Date, or (ii) elects to cause the Previous General Partner to acquire any number of Tendered Units for REIT Shares on or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date, in each case, the Tendering Party shall sell such number of the Tendered Units to the Previous General Partner in exchange for a number of REIT Shares equal to the product of the REIT Shares Amount and the Applicable Percentage. The Tendering Party shall submit (i) such information, certification or affidavit as the Previous General Partner may reasonably require in connection with the application of the Ownership Limit and other restrictions and limitations of the Charter to any such acquisition and (ii) such written representations, investment letters, legal opinions or other instruments necessary, in the Previous General Partner’s view, to effect compliance with the Securities Act. The product of the Applicable Percentage and the REIT Shares Amount, if applicable, shall be delivered by the Previous General Partner as duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and accessible REIT Shares and, if applicable, Rights, free of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or restriction, other than the Ownership Limit and other restrictions provided in the Charter, the Bylaws of the Previous General Partner, the Securities Act and relevant state securities or “blue sky” laws. Neither any Tendering Party whose Tendered Units are acquired by the Previous General Partner pursuant to this Section 8.6B, any Partner, any Assignee nor any other interested Person shall have any right to require or cause the Previous General Partner or the General Partner to register, qualify or list any REIT Shares owned or held by such Person, whether or not such REIT Shares are issued pursuant to this Section 8.6B, with the SEC, with any state securities commissioner, department or agency, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or with any stock exchange; provided, however, that this limitation shall not be in derogation of any registration or similar rights granted pursuant to any other written agreement between the Previous General Partner and any such Person. Notwithstanding any delay in such delivery, the Tendering Party shall be deemed the owner of such REIT Shares and Rights for all purposes, including, without limitation, rights to vote or consent, receive dividends, and exercise rights, as of the Specified Redemption Date. REIT Shares issued upon an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Previous General Partner pursuant to this Section 8.6B may contain such legends regarding restrictions under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws as the Previous General Partner in good faith determines to be necessary or advisable in order to ensure compliance with such laws.

C. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.6A and 8.6B hereof, the Tendering Parties (i) where the Redemption would consist of less than all the Partnership Common Units held by Partners other than the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner, shall not be entitled to elect or effect a Redemption to the extent that the aggregate Percentage Interests of the Limited Partners (other than the Special Limited Partner) would be reduced, as a result of the Redemption, to less than one percent (1%) and (ii) shall have no rights under this

50

Agreement that would otherwise be prohibited under the Charter. To the extent that any attempted Redemption would be in violation of this Section 8.6C, it shall be null and void ab initio, and the Tendering Party shall not acquire any rights or economic interests in REIT Shares otherwise issuable by the Previous General Partner under Section 8.6B hereof.

D. In the event that the Partnership declines to cause the Previous General Partner to acquire all of the Tendered Units from the Tendering Party in exchange for REIT Shares pursuant to Section 8.6B hereof following receipt of a Notice of Redemption (a “Declination”):

(1) The Previous General Partner or the General Partner shall give notice of such Declination to the Tendering Partner on or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date.

(2) The Partnership may elect to raise funds for the payment of the Cash Amount either (a) by requiring that the General Partner contribute such funds from the proceeds of a registered public offering (a “Public Offering Funding”) by the Previous General Partner of a number of REIT Shares (“Registrable Shares”) equal to the REIT Shares Amount with respect to the Tendered Units or (b) from any other sources (including, but not limited to, the sale of any Property and the incurrence of additional Debt) available to the Partnership.

(3) Promptly upon the General Partner’s receipt of the Notice of Redemption and the Previous General Partner or the General Partner giving notice of the Partnership’s Declination, the General Partner shall give notice (a “Single Funding Notice”) to all Qualifying Parties then holding a Partnership Interest (or an interest therein) and having Redemption rights pursuant to this Section 8.6 and require that all such Qualifying Parties elect whether or not to effect a Redemption of their Partnership Common Units to be funded through such Public Offering Funding. In the event that any such Qualifying Party elects to effect such a Redemption, it shall give notice thereof and of the number of Partnership Common Units to be made subject thereon in writing to the General Partner within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Single Funding Notice, and such Qualifying Party shall be treated as a Tendering Party for all purposes of this Section 8.6. In the event that a Qualifying Party does not so elect, it shall be deemed to have waived its right to effect a Redemption for the current Twelve-Month Period; provided, however, that the Previous General Partner shall not be required to acquire Partnership Common Units pursuant to this Section 8.6D more than twice within a Twelve-Month Period.

Any proceeds from a Public Offering Funding that are in excess of the Cash Amount shall be for the sole benefit of the Previous General Partner and/or the General Partner. The General Partner and/or the Special Limited Partner shall make a Capital Contribution of such amounts to the Partnership for an additional General Partner Interest and/or Limited Partner Interest. Any such contribution shall entitle the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner, as the case may be, to an equitable Percentage Interest adjustment.

51

E. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.6B hereof, the Previous General Partner shall not, under any circumstances, elect to acquire Tendered Units in exchange for the REIT Shares Amount if such exchange would be prohibited under the Charter.

F. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but subject to Section 8.6C hereof), with respect to any Redemption pursuant to this Section 8.6:

(1) All Partnership Common Units acquired by the Previous General Partner pursuant to Section 8.6B hereof shall be contributed by the Previous General Partner to either or both of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner in such proportions as the Previous General Partner and the General Partner shall determine. Any Partnership Common Units so contributed to the General Partner shall automatically, and without further action required, be converted into and deemed to be a General Partner Interest comprised of the same number of Partnership Common Units. Any Partnership Common Units so contributed to the Special Limited Partner shall remain outstanding.

(2) Subject to the Ownership Limit, no Tendering Party may effect a Redemption for less than five hundred (500) Redeemable Units or, if such Tendering Party holds (as a Limited Partner or, economically, as an Assignee) less than five hundred (500) Redeemable Units, all of the Redeemable Units held by such Tendering Party.

(3) Each Tendering Party (a) may effect a Redemption only once in each fiscal quarter of a Twelve-Month Period and (b) may not effect a Redemption during the period after the Partnership Record Date with respect to a distribution and before the record date established by the Previous General Partner for a distribution to its shareholders of some or all of its portion of such Partnership distribution.

(4) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Redemption or acquisition of Tendered Units by the Previous General Partner pursuant to Section 8.6B hereof, in the event that the Previous General Partner or the General Partner gives notice to all Limited Partners (but excluding any Assignees) then owning Partnership Interests (a “Primary Offering Notice”) that the Previous General Partner desires to effect a primary offering of its equity securities then, unless the Previous General Partner and the General Partner otherwise consent, commencement of the actions denoted in Section 8.6E hereof as to a Public Offering Funding with respect to any Notice of Redemption thereafter received, whether or not the Tendering Party is a Limited Partner, may be delayed until the earlier of (a) the completion of the primary offering or (b) ninety (90) days following the giving of the Primary Offering Notice.

(5) Without the Consent of the Previous General Partner, no Tendering Party may effect a Redemption within ninety (90) days following the closing of any prior Public Offering Funding.

(6) The consummation of such Redemption shall be subject to the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period, if any, under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended.

52

(7) The Tendering Party shall continue to own (subject, in the case of an Assignee, to the provision of Section 11.5 hereof) all Redeemable Units subject to any Redemption, and be treated as a Limited Partner or an Assignee, as applicable, with respect to such Redeemable Units for all purposes of this Agreement, until such Redeemable Units are either paid for by the Partnership pursuant to Section 8.6A hereof or transferred to the Previous General Partner (or directly to the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner) and paid for, by the issuance of the REIT Shares, pursuant to Section 8.6B hereof on the Specified Redemption Date. Until a Specified Redemption Date and an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Previous General Partner pursuant to Section 8.6B hereof, the Tendering Party shall have no rights as a shareholder of the Previous General Partner with respect to the REIT Shares issuable in connection with such acquisition.

For purposes of determining compliance with the restrictions set forth in this Section 8.6F, all Partnership Common Units beneficially owned by a Related Party of a Tendering Party shall be considered to be owned or held by such Tendering Party.

G. In connection with an exercise of Redemption rights pursuant to this Section 8.6, the Tendering Party shall submit the following to the General Partner, in addition to the Notice of Redemption:

(1) A written affidavit, dated the same date as the Notice of Redemption, (a) disclosing the actual and constructive ownership, as determined for purposes of Code Sections 856(a)(6) and 856(h), of REIT Shares by (i) such Tendering Party and (ii) any Related Party and (b) representing that, after giving effect to the Redemption, neither the Tendering Party nor any Related Party will own REIT Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit;

(2) A written representation that neither the Tendering Party nor any Related Party has any intention to acquire any additional REIT Shares prior to the closing of the Redemption on the Specified Redemption Date; and

(3) An undertaking to certify, at and as a condition to the closing of the Redemption on the Specified Redemption Date, that either (a) the actual and constructive ownership of REIT Shares by the Tendering Party and any Related Party remain unchanged from that disclosed in the affidavit required by Section 8.6G(1) or (b) after giving effect to the Redemption, neither the Tendering Party nor any Related Party shall own REIT Shares in violation of the Ownership Limit.

H. The General Partner shall establish a Specified Redemption Date in each quarter of each Fiscal Year; provided that the General Partner may postpone any such date one or more times. The General Partner shall provide notice to the Partners of each Specified Redemption Date at least 75 days prior to such date. The General Partner may, in its sole discretion, establish additional Specified Redemption Dates on such terms and conditions as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion, if it determines that doing so would not create a material risk that the Partnership would become a “publicly traded partnership,” as such term is defined in Section 469(k)(2) or Section 7704(b) of the Code.

53

Section 8.7 Partnership Right to Call Limited Partner Interests. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, on and after the date on which the aggregate Percentage Interests of the Limited Partners (other than the Special Limited Partner) are less than one percent (1%), the Partnership shall have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time and at any time to redeem any and all outstanding Limited Partner Interests (other than the Special Limited Partner’s Limited Partner Interest) by treating any Limited Partner as a Tendering Party who has delivered a Notice of Redemption pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof for the amount of Partnership Common Units to be specified by the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, by notice to such Limited Partner that the Partnership has elected to exercise its rights under this Section 8.7. Such notice given by the General Partner to a Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be treated as if it were a Notice of Redemption delivered to the General Partner by such Limited Partner. For purposes of this Section 8.7, (a) any Limited Partner (whether or not otherwise a Qualifying Party) may, in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion, be treated as a Qualifying Party that is a Tendering Party and (b) the provisions of Sections 8.6C(i), 8.6F(2), 8.6F(3) and 8.6F(5) hereof shall not apply, but the remainder of Section 8.6 hereof shall apply, mutatis mutandis.

ARTICLE 9

BOOKS, RECORDS, ACCOUNTING AND REPORTS

Section 9.1 Records and Accounting.

A. The General Partner shall keep or cause to be kept at the principal office of the Partnership those records and documents required to be maintained by the Act and other books and records deemed by the General Partner to be appropriate with respect to the Partnership’s business, including, without limitation, all books and records necessary to provide to the Limited Partners any information, lists and copies of documents required to be provided pursuant to Section 8.5A or Section 9.3 hereof. Any records maintained by or on behalf of the Partnership in the regular course of its business may be kept on, or be in the form for, punch cards, magnetic tape, photographs, micrographics or any other information storage device, provided that the records so maintained are convertible into clearly legible written form within a reasonable period of time.

B. The books of the Partnership shall be maintained, for financial and tax reporting purposes, on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or on such other basis as the General Partner determines to be necessary or appropriate. To the extent permitted by sound accounting practices and principles, the Partnership, the General Partner and the Previous General Partner may operate with integrated or consolidated accounting records, operations and principles.

Section 9.2 Fiscal Year. The Fiscal Year of the Partnership shall be the calendar year.

54

Section 9.3 Reports.

A. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than one hundred five (105) days after the close of each Fiscal Year, the General Partner shall cause to be made available to each Limited Partner, of record as of the close of the Fiscal Year, an annual report containing financial statements of the Partnership, or of the Previous General Partner if such statements are prepared solely on a consolidated basis with the Previous General Partner, for such Fiscal Year, presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, such statements to be audited by a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants selected by the General Partner. Such report shall be deemed to be made available to all Limited Partners if it has been filed with the SEC.

B. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than one hundred five (105) days after the close of each calendar quarter (except the last calendar quarter of each year), the General Partner shall cause to be made available to each Limited Partner, of record as of the last day of the calendar quarter, a report containing unaudited financial statements of the Partnership, or of the Previous General Partner if such statements are prepared solely on a consolidated basis with the Previous General Partner, and such other information as may be required by applicable law or regulation or as the General Partner determines to be appropriate. At the request of any Limited Partner, the General Partner shall provide access to the books, records and workpapers upon which the reports required by this Section 9.3 are based, to the extent required by the Act. Such report shall be deemed to be made available to all Limited Partners if it has been filed with the SEC.

ARTICLE 10

TAX MATTERS

Section 10.1 Preparation of Tax Returns. The General Partner shall arrange for the preparation and timely filing of all returns with respect to Partnership income, gains, deductions, losses and other items required of the Partnership for federal and state income tax purposes and shall use all reasonable effort to furnish, within ninety (90) days of the close of each taxable year, the tax information reasonably required by Limited Partners for federal and state income tax reporting purposes. The Limited Partners shall promptly provide the General Partner with such information relating to the Contributed Properties, including tax basis and other relevant information, as may be reasonably requested by the General Partner from time to time.

Section 10.2 Tax Elections.

A. Except as otherwise provided herein, the General Partner shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine whether to make any available election pursuant to the Code, including, but not limited to, the election under Code Section 754 and the election to use the “recurring item” method of accounting provided under Code Section 461(h) with respect to property taxes imposed on the Partnership’s Properties; provided, however, that, if the “recurring item” method of accounting is elected with respect to such property taxes, the Partnership shall pay the applicable property taxes prior to the date provided in Code Section 461(h) for purposes of determining economic performance. The General Partner shall have the right to seek to revoke any such election (including, without limitation, any election under Code Sections 461(h) and 754) upon the General Partner’s determination in its sole and absolute discretion that such revocation is in the best interests of the Partners.

55

B. The General Partner is expressly authorized to make any elections, including applicable safe harbor elections, in connection with the issuance of Partnership Interests for services that it deems to be in the best interest of the Partnership. Furthermore, the General Partner is authorized to amend this Agreement as it deems necessary to provide that (1) the Partnership is authorized and directed to elect applicable safe harbor elections, and (2) the Partnership and each of its Partners (including any person to whom a Partnership Interest is transferred in connection with the performance of services) agrees to comply with all requirements of the safe harbor with respect to all Partnership Interests transferred in connection with the performance of services while the election remains effective. Finally, the amendments relating to the safe harbor elections in connection with the issuance of Partnership Interests for services are legally binding on all Partners of the Partnership, and to the extent that it is determined that such amendments are not legally binding on all Partners, then each Partner in the Partnership that transfers a Partnership Interest in connection with the performance of services agrees to execute a document containing provisions that are legally binding on that Partner stating that (X) the Partnership is authorized and directed to elect the safe harbor, and (Y) the Partner agrees to comply with all requirements of the safe harbor with respect to all Partnership Interests transferred in connection with the performance of services while the election remains effective.

Section 10.3 Tax Matters Partner.

A. The General Partner is hereby designated as the “tax matters partner” of the Partnership, as such term is defined in Section 6231 of the TEFRA Rules with respect to all taxable years to which the TEFRA Rules apply (the “Tax Matters Partner”). The Tax Matters Partner shall receive no compensation for its services. All third-party costs and expenses incurred by the Tax Matters Partner in performing its duties as such (including legal and accounting fees and expenses) shall be borne by the Partnership in addition to any reimbursement pursuant to Section 7.4 hereof. Nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the Partnership from engaging an accounting firm to assist the Tax Matters Partner in discharging its duties hereunder, so long as the compensation paid by the Partnership for such services is reasonable. At the request of any Limited Partner, the General Partner agrees to consult with such Limited Partner with respect to the preparation and filing of any returns and with respect to any subsequent audit or litigation relating to such returns; provided, however, that the filing of such returns shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner.

B. The Tax Matters Partner is authorized, but not required:

(1) to enter into any settlement with the IRS with respect to any administrative or judicial proceedings for the adjustment of Partnership items required to be taken into account by a Partner for income tax purposes (such administrative proceedings being referred to as a “tax audit” and such judicial proceedings being referred to as “judicial review”), and in the settlement agreement the Tax Matters Partner may expressly state that such agreement shall bind all Partners, except that such settlement agreement shall not bind any Partner (i) who (within the time prescribed pursuant to the Code and Regulations) files a statement with the IRS providing that the Tax Matters Partner shall not have the authority to enter into a settlement agreement on behalf of such Partner or (ii) who is a “notice partner” (as defined in Code Section 6231) or a member of a “notice group” (as defined in Code Section 6223(b)(2));

56

(2) in the event that a notice of a final administrative adjustment at the Partnership level of any item required to be taken into account by a Partner for tax purposes (a “final adjustment”) is mailed to the Tax Matters Partner, to seek judicial review of such final adjustment, including the filing of a petition for readjustment with the United States Tax Court or the United States Claims Court, or the filing of a complaint for refund with the District Court of the United States for the district in which the Partnership’s principal place of business is located;

(3) to intervene in any action brought by any other Partner for judicial review of a final adjustment;

(4) to file a request for an administrative adjustment with the IRS at any time and, if any part of such request is not allowed by the IRS, to file an appropriate pleading (petition or complaint) for judicial review with respect to such request;

(5) to enter into an agreement with the IRS to extend the period for assessing any tax that is attributable to any item required to be taken into account by a Partner for tax purposes, or an item affected by such item; and

(6) to take any other action on behalf of the Partners in connection with any tax audit or judicial review proceeding to the extent permitted by applicable law or regulations.

The taking of any action and the incurring of any expense by the Tax Matters Partner in connection with any such proceeding, except to the extent required by law, is a matter in the sole and absolute discretion of the Tax Matters Partner and the provisions relating to indemnification of the General Partner set forth in Section 7.7 hereof shall be fully applicable to the Tax Matters Partner in its capacity as such. The provisions of this Section 10.3 are not applicable to any taxable years subject to the Partnership Audit Rules.

Section 10.4 Partnership Representative.

A. The General Partner is hereby designated to serve as the “partnership representative” with respect to the Partnership, as provided in Section 6223(a) of the Partnership Audit Rules (the “Partnership Representative”). For each taxable year in which the Partnership Representative is an entity, the Partnership shall appoint the “designated individual” identified by the Partnership Representative to act on behalf of the Partnership Representative in accordance with the applicable Treasury Regulations (the “Designated Individual”). Each Partner expressly consents to such designations and agrees that it will execute, acknowledge, deliver, file and record at the appropriate public offices such documents as may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such consent.

B. The Partnership Representative shall have the sole authority to act on behalf of the Partnership in connection with and make all relevant decisions regarding application of the Partnership Audit Rules, including, but not limited to, any elections under the Partnership Audit Rules or any decisions to settle, compromise, challenge, litigate or otherwise alter the defense of any proceeding before the IRS.

57

C. The Partners agree to cooperate in good faith to timely provide information requested by the Partnership Representative as needed to comply with the Partnership Audit Rules, including, without limitation, to make any elections available to the Partnership under the Partnership Audit Rules. Each Partner agrees that, upon request of the Partnership, such Partner shall take such actions as may be necessary or desirable (as determined by the Partnership Representative) to (i) allow the Partnership to comply with the provisions of Section 6226 of the Partnership Audit Rules so that any “partnership adjustments” (as defined in Section 6241(2) of the Partnership Audit Rules) are taken into account by the Partners and former Partners rather than the Partnership; (ii) use the provisions of Section 6225(c) of the Partnership Audit Rules including, but not limited to, filing amended tax returns with respect to any “reviewed year” (within the meaning of Section 6225(d)(1) of the Partnership Audit Rules) or using the alternative procedure to filing amended returns to reduce the amount of any partnership adjustment otherwise required to be taken into account by the Partnership or (iii) otherwise allow the Partnership and its Partners to address and respond to any matters arising under the Partnership Audit Rules.

D. Notwithstanding other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if any partnership adjustment is determined with respect to the Partnership, the Partnership Representative may cause the Partnership to elect pursuant to Section 6226 of the Partnership Audit Rules to have such adjustment passed through to the Partners for the year to which the adjustment relates (i.e., the “reviewed year” within the meaning of Section 6225(d)(1) of the Partnership Audit Rules). In the event that the Partnership Representative has not caused the Partnership to so elect pursuant to Section 6226 of the Partnership Audit Rules, then any “imputed underpayment” (as determined in accordance with Section 6225 of the Partnership Audit Rules) or partnership adjustment that does not give rise to an “imputed underpayment” shall be apportioned among the Partners of the Partnership for the taxable year in which the adjustment is finalized in such manner as may be necessary (as determined by the Partnership Representative in good faith) so that, to the maximum extent possible, the tax and economic consequences of the imputed underpayment or other partnership adjustment and any associated interest and penalties (any such amount, an “Imputed Underpayment Amount”) are borne by the Partners based upon their interests in the Partnership for the reviewed year. Imputed Underpayment Amounts also shall include any imputed underpayment within the meaning of Section 6225 of the Partnership Audit Rules paid (or payable) by any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes in which the Partnership holds (or has held) a direct or indirect interest other than through entities treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent that the Partnership bears the economic burden of such amounts, whether by law or contract.

E. Each Partner agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership from and against any liability with respect to such Partner’s share of any tax deficiency paid or payable by the Partnership that is allocable to the Partner as determined in accordance with the second to last sentence of paragraph D above with respect to an audited or reviewed taxable year for which such Partner was a partner in the Partnership. The obligations set forth in this paragraph E shall survive the termination of any Partner’s interest in the Partnership, the

58

termination of this Agreement and/or the termination, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Partnership, and shall remain binding on each Partner for the period of time necessary to resolve with the IRS (or any other applicable taxing authority) all income tax matters relating to the Partnership and for Partners to satisfy their indemnification obligations, if any, pursuant to this Section 10.4. Any obligation of a Partner pursuant to this paragraph E shall be implemented through adjustments to distributions otherwise payable to such Partner as determined in accordance with Article 5; provided, however, that, at the written request of the Partnership Representative, each Partner or former Partner may be required to contribute to the Partnership such Partner’s Imputed Underpayment Amount imposed on and paid by the Partnership; provided further, that if a Partner or former Partner individually directly pays, pursuant to the Partnership Audit Rules, any such Imputed Underpayment Amount, then such payment shall reduce any offset to distribution or required capital contribution of such Partner or former Partner. Any amount withheld from distributions pursuant to this paragraph E shall be treated as an amount distributed to such Partner or former Partner for all purposes under this Agreement.

F. All expenses incurred by the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual in connection with its duties as partnership representative or designated individual, as applicable, shall be expenses of the Partnership (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any costs and expenses incurred in connection with any claims asserted against the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual, as applicable, except, in the case of the Partnership Representative, to the extent the Partnership Representative is determined to have performed its duties in the manner described in the final sentence of this paragraph F, and the Partnership shall reimburse the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual, as applicable, for all such costs and expenses). Nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual from engaging lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, or other professional advisers or experts to assist the Partnership Representative or Designated Individual in discharging its duties hereunder. Neither the Partnership Representative nor the Designated Individual shall be liable to the Partnership, any Partner or any Affiliate thereof for any costs or losses to any persons, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever arising as a result of the performance of its duties pursuant to this Section 10.4; provided, however, that the Partnership Representative may be so liable if it or the Designated Individual has engaged in (i) willful breach of any provision of this Section 10.4 or (ii) fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, in each case, with respect to its performance of its duties pursuant to this Section 10.4.

Section 10.5 Withholding for Taxes, Etc.

A. Withholding. Each Limited Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership to withhold from such Limited Partner any amount of federal, state, local or foreign taxes that the General Partner determines, in its sole discretion, that the Partnership is, or may in the future be, required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable, allocable or payable to such Limited Partner pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes required to be withheld or paid by the Partnership pursuant to Code Section 1441, Code Section 1442, Code Section 1445 or Code Section 1446. Amounts withheld by the General Partner may be estimated by the General Partner, in its sole discretion, based on its expectations of future transactions involving the Partnership that may give rise to taxes of such Limited Partner. The General Partner may withhold amounts for taxes (including estimated or projected taxes) from cash or other distributions otherwise payable to a Limited Partner, or from any REIT Shares or Cash Amount otherwise payable to a Limited Partner in connection with a Redemption.

B. Certain Tax Payments. Each Limited Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership to pay on behalf of or with respect to such Limited Partner any amount of federal, state, local or foreign taxes that the General Partner determines, in its sole discretion, that the Partnership is required to pay with respect to any amount distributable, allocable or payable to such Limited Partner pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes required to be paid by the Partnership pursuant to Code Section 1441, Code Section 1442, Code Section 1445 or Code Section 1446. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Limited Partner shall constitute a loan by the Partnership to such Limited Partner, which loan shall be repaid by such Limited Partner within fifteen (15) days after notice from the General Partner that such payment must be made unless (i) the Partnership withholds such payment from a distribution that would otherwise be made to the Limited Partner or (ii) the General Partner determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such payment may be satisfied out of the Available Funds of the Partnership that would, but for such payment, be distributed to the Limited Partner. Each Limited Partner hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Partnership a security interest in such Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest to secure such Limited Partner’s obligation to pay to the Partnership any amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 10.5B. In the event that a Limited Partner fails to pay any amounts owed to the Partnership pursuant to this Section 10.5B within fifteen (15) days after the notice from the General Partner specified above, then the General Partner may, in its sole and absolute discretion, either (x) elect to make the payment to the Partnership on behalf of such defaulting Limited Partner, and in such event shall be deemed to have loaned such amount to such defaulting Limited Partner and shall succeed to all rights and remedies of the Partnership as against such defaulting Limited Partner (including, without limitation, the right to receive distributions), or (y) cause the Partnership to redeem from such Limited Partner a number of Partnership Common Units (or fraction thereof) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate amount owed by such Limited Partner to the Partnership pursuant to this Section 10.5B, by (ii) the product of (1) the Adjustment Factor in effect as of date of redemption specified by the General Partner, and (2) the Value of a REIT Share (assuming for such purpose that the Valuation Date is the date of redemption specified by the General Partner). If the General Partner elects to cause the Partnership to redeem any Limited Partner’s Partnership Common Units pursuant to clause (y) above, it shall promptly so notify such Limited Partner in writing of the date of such redemption and the number of Partnership Common Units so redeemed. Any amounts payable by a Limited Partner under this Section 10.5B shall bear interest at the base rate on corporate loans at large United States money center commercial banks, as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal, plus four (4) percentage points (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate) from the date such amount is due (i.e., fifteen (15) days after demand) until such amount is paid in full. Each Limited Partner shall take such actions as the Partnership or the General Partner shall request in order to perfect or enforce the security interest created hereunder, or to assist the Partnership in effecting any redemption of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Common Units as specified in clause (y) above.

ARTICLE 11

TRANSFERS AND WITHDRAWALS

Section 11.1 Transfer.

A. No part of the interest of a Partner shall be subject to the claims of any creditor, to any spouse for alimony or support, or to legal process, and may not be voluntarily or involuntarily alienated or encumbered except as may be specifically provided for in this Agreement.

B. No Partnership Interest shall be Transferred, in whole or in part, except in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 11. Any Transfer or purported Transfer of a Partnership Interest not made in accordance with this Article 11 shall be null and void ab initio.

C. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 11 (other than Section 11.6D hereof), the Partnership Interests of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner may be Transferred, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, to or among the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner and any other Person that is, at the time of such Transfer, a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) with respect to the Special Limited Partner. Any transferee of the entire General Partner Interest pursuant to this Section 11.1C shall automatically become, without further action or Consent of any Limited Partners, the sole general partner of the Partnership, subject to all the rights, privileges, duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Act relating to a general partner. Any transferee of a Limited Partner Interest pursuant to this Section 11.1C shall automatically become, without further action or Consent of any Limited Partners, a Substituted Limited Partner. Upon any Transfer permitted by this Section 11.1C, the transferor Partner shall be relieved of all its obligations under this Agreement. The provisions of Section 11.2B (other than the last sentence thereof), 11.3, 11.4A and 11.5 hereof shall not apply to any Transfer permitted by this Section 11.1C.

Section 11.2 Transfer of General Partner’s Partnership Interest.

A. The General Partner may not Transfer any of its General Partner Interest or withdraw from the Partnership except as provided in Sections 11.2B and 11.2C hereof.

B. The General Partner shall not withdraw from the Partnership and shall not Transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Partnership (whether by sale, disposition, statutory merger or consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) without the Consent of the Limited Partners, which Consent may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of the Limited Partners. Upon any Transfer of such a Partnership Interest pursuant to the Consent of the Limited Partners and otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.2B, the transferee shall become a successor 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

61

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 such Transfer shall relieve the transferor General Partner of its obligations under this Agreement without the Consent of the Limited Partners. In the event that the General Partner withdraws from the Partnership, in violation of this Agreement or otherwise, or otherwise dissolves or terminates, or upon the bankruptcy of the General Partner, a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners may elect to continue the Partnership business by selecting a successor General Partner in accordance with the Act.

C. The General Partner may merge with another entity if immediately after such merger substantially all of the assets of the surviving entity, other than the General Partner Interest held by the General Partner, are contributed to the Partnership as a Capital Contribution in exchange for Partnership Units.

Section 11.3 Limited Partners’ Rights to Transfer.

A. General. Prior to the end of the first Twelve-Month Period, 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, without the consent of the General Partner, (i) Transfer all or part of its Partnership Interest to any Designated Party, any Family Member, any Controlled Entity or any Affiliate, provided that the transferee is, in any such case, a Qualified Transferee, or (ii) pledge (a “Pledge”) all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to a lending institution, that 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 (any Transfer or Pledge permitted by this proviso is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Transfer”). After such first Twelve-Month Period, each Limited Partner, and each transferee of Partnership Units or Assignee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, shall have the right to Transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to any Person, subject to the provisions of Section 11.6 hereof and to satisfaction of each of the following conditions:

(1) 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) Business 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) Business Days after giving notice of such election; provided, however, that in the event that the proposed terms involve a purchase for cash, the General Partner may at its election deliver in lieu of all or any portion of such cash a note payable to the Transferring Partner at a date as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than one hundred eighty (180) days after such purchase, and bearing interest at an annual rate equal to the total dividends declared with respect to one (1) REIT Share for the four (4) preceding fiscal

62

quarters of the General Partner, divided by the Value as of the closing of such purchase; provided, further, that such closing may be deferred to the extent necessary to effect compliance with the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, if applicable, and any other applicable requirements of law. If it does not so elect, the Transferring Partner may Transfer such Partnership Units to a third party, on terms no more favorable to the transferee than the proposed terms, subject to the other conditions of this Section 11.3.

(2) Qualified Transferee. Any Transfer of a Partnership Interest shall be made only to a single Qualified Transferee; provided, however, that, for such purposes, all Qualified Transferees that are Affiliates, or that comprise investment accounts or funds managed by a single Qualified Transferee and its Affiliates, shall be considered together to be a single Qualified Transferee; provided, further, that each Transfer meeting the minimum Transfer restriction of Section 11.3A(3) hereof may be to a separate Qualified Transferee.

(3) Minimum Transfer Restriction. Any Transferring Partner must Transfer not less than the lesser of (i) the greater of five hundred (500) Partnership Units or one-third (1/3) of the number of Partnership Units owned by such Partner as of the Effective Date or (ii) all of the remaining Partnership Units owned by such Transferring Partner; provided, however, that, for purposes of determining compliance with the foregoing restriction, all Partnership Units owned by Affiliates of a Limited Partner shall be considered to be owned by such Limited Partner.

(4) Transferee Agreement to Effect a Redemption. Any proposed transferee shall deliver to the General Partner a written agreement reasonably satisfactory to the General Partner to the effect that the transferee will, within six (6) months after consummation of a Partnership Common Units Transfer, tender its Partnership Common Units for Redemption in accordance with the terms of the Redemption rights provided in Section 8.6 hereof.

(5) No Further Transfers. The transferee (other than a Designated Party) shall not be permitted to effect any further Transfer of the Partnership Units, other than to the General Partner.

(6) Exception for Permitted Transfers. The conditions of Sections 11.3A(1) through 11.3A(5) hereof shall not apply in the case of a Permitted Transfer.

It is a condition to any Transfer otherwise permitted hereunder (whether or not such Transfer is effected during or after the first Twelve-Month Period) 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 sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee of any

63

Transferred Partnership Interest shall be subject to any and all ownership limitations (including, without limitation, the Ownership Limit) contained in the Charter that may limit or restrict such transferee’s ability to exercise its Redemption rights, including, without limitation, the Ownership Limit. 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 hereof.

B. Incapacity. 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 its interest in the Partnership. The Incapacity of a Limited Partner, in and of itself, shall not dissolve or terminate the Partnership.

C. Opinion of Counsel. In connection with any Transfer of a Limited Partner Interest, the General Partner shall have the right to receive an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to it to the effect that the proposed Transfer may be effected without registration under the Securities Act and will not otherwise violate any federal or state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Partnership Interests Transferred. If, in the opinion of such counsel, such Transfer would require the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act or would otherwise violate any federal or state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Partnership Units, the General Partner may prohibit any Transfer otherwise permitted under this Section 11.3 by a Limited Partner of Partnership Interests.

D. Adverse Tax Consequences. No Transfer by a Limited Partner of its Partnership Interests (including any Redemption, any other acquisition of Partnership Units by the General Partner or any acquisition of Partnership Units by the Partnership) may be made to any person if (i) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it would result in the Partnership being treated as an association taxable as a corporation, or (ii) such Transfer is effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Code Section 7704. Upon any Transfer by a Limited Partner of its Partnership Interests, such Limited Partner shall (a) provide the Partnership and the transferee receiving such an interest an affidavit satisfying the requirements of Section 1446(f)(2) of the Code stating, under penalty of perjury, (i) the transferor Limited Partner’s United States taxpayer identification number and (ii) that such Limited Partner is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of Code Section 1446, and (b) provide the Partnership with such other information and assistance as the Partnership may request to ensure that the Company is not subject to withholding under Section 1446 of the Code.

64

Section 11.4 Substituted Limited Partners.

A. No Limited Partner shall have the right to substitute a transferee (including any Designated Party or other transferees pursuant to Transfers permitted by Section 11.3 hereof) as a Limited Partner in its place. A transferee (including, but not limited to, any Designated Party) of the interest of a Limited Partner may be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner only with the Consent of the General Partner, which Consent may be given or withheld by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion. The failure or refusal by the General Partner 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 the General Partner. Subject to the foregoing, an Assignee shall not be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner until and unless it furnishes to the General Partner (i) evidence of acceptance, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, of all the terms, conditions and applicable obligations of this Agreement, (ii) a counterpart signature page to this Agreement executed by such Assignee and (iii) such other documents and instruments as may be required or advisable, in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner, to effect such Assignee’s admission as a Substituted Limited 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.

C. Upon the admission of a Substituted Limited Partner, the General Partner shall amend Exhibit A to reflect the name, address and number of Partnership Units of such Substituted Limited Partner and to eliminate or adjust, if necessary, the name, address and number of Partnership Units 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 hereof as a Substituted Limited Partner, as described in Section 11.4 hereof, 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 and other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Partnership attributable to the Partnership Units assigned to such transferee and the rights to Transfer the Partnership Units provided in this Article 11, but shall not be deemed to be a holder of Partnership Units for any other purpose under this Agreement (other than as expressly provided in Section 8.6 hereof with respect to a Qualifying Party that becomes a Tendering Party), and shall not be entitled to effect a Consent or vote with respect to such Partnership Units on any matter presented to the Limited Partners for approval (such right to Consent or vote, to the extent provided in this Agreement or under the Act, fully remaining with the transferor Limited Partner). In the event that 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.

Section 11.6 General Provisions.

A. No Limited Partner may withdraw from the Partnership other than as a result of a permitted Transfer of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units in accordance with this Article 11, with respect to which the transferee becomes a Substituted Limited Partner, or pursuant to a redemption (or acquisition by the Previous General Partner) of all of its Partnership Units pursuant to a Redemption under Section 8.6 hereof and/or pursuant to any Partnership Unit Designation.

65

B. Any Limited Partner who shall Transfer all of its Partnership Units in a Transfer (i) permitted pursuant to this Article 11 where such transferee was admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, (ii) pursuant to the exercise of its rights to effect a redemption of all of its Partnership Units pursuant to a Redemption under Section 8.6 hereof and/or pursuant to any Partnership Unit Designation or (iii) to the Previous General Partner or the General Partner, whether or not pursuant to Section 8.6B hereof, shall cease to be a Limited Partner.

C. If any Partnership Unit is Transferred in compliance with the provisions of this Article 11, or is redeemed by the Partnership, or acquired by the Previous General Partner pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof, on any day other than the first day of a Fiscal Year, then Net Income, Net Loss, each item thereof and all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit attributable to such Partnership Unit for such Fiscal Year shall be allocated to the transferor Partner or the Tendering Party, as the case may be, and, in the case of a Transfer or assignment other than a Redemption, to the transferee Partner (including, without limitation, the General Partner as a transferee of the Previous General Partner in the case of an acquisition of Partnership Common Units pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof), by taking into account their varying interests during the Fiscal Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using the “interim closing of the books” method or another permissible method selected by the General Partner. All distributions of Available Cash attributable to such Partnership Unit with respect to which the Partnership Record Date is before the date of such Transfer, assignment or Redemption shall be made to the transferor Partner or the Tendering Party, as the case may be, and, in the case of a Transfer other than a Redemption, all distributions of Available Cash thereafter attributable to such Partnership Unit shall be made to the transferee Partner.

D. In addition to any other restrictions on Transfer herein contained, in no event may any Transfer or assignment of a Partnership Interest by any Partner (including any Redemption, any acquisition of Partnership Units by the Previous General Partner or any other acquisition of Partnership Units by the Partnership) 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) 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) in the event that such Transfer would cause either (a) the Special Limited Partner to cease to comply with the REIT Requirements or (b) the General Partner or any other wholly owned subsidiary of the Special Limited Partner to cease to qualify as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)); (v) if such Transfer would, in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership or the General Partner, cause a termination of the Partnership for federal or state income tax purposes (except as a result of the Redemption (or acquisition by the Previous General Partner) of all Partnership Common Units held by all Limited Partners other than the Special Limited Partner); (vi) if such Transfer would, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership, cause the Partnership to cease to be classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes (except as a result of the Redemption (or acquisition by the Previous General Partner) of all Partnership Common Units held by all Limited Partners other than the Special Limited Partner); (vii) 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 ERISA

66

Section 3(14)) or a “disqualified person” (as defined in Code Section 4975(c)); (viii) if such Transfer would, in the opinion of legal 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; (ix) if such Transfer requires the registration of such Partnership Interest pursuant to any applicable federal or state securities laws; (x) if such Transfer causes the Partnership to become a “publicly traded partnership,” as such term is defined in Code Section 469(k)(2) or Code 7704(b); or (xi) if such Transfer subjects the Partnership to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 or ERISA, each as amended.

ARTICLE 12

ADMISSION OF PARTNERS

Section 12.1 Admission of Successor General Partner. A successor to all of the General Partner’s General Partner Interest pursuant to Section 11.2 hereof who is proposed to be admitted as a successor General Partner shall be admitted to the Partnership as the General Partner, effective immediately prior to such Transfer. Any such successor shall carry on the business of the Partnership without dissolution. In each case, the admission shall be subject to the successor General Partner executing and delivering to the Partnership an acceptance of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and such other documents or instruments as may be required to effect the admission.

Section 12.2 Admission of Additional Limited Partners.

A. After the admission to the Partnership of an Original Limited Partner on the date hereof, a Person (other than an existing Partner) who makes a Capital Contribution to the Partnership in accordance with this Agreement shall be admitted to the Partnership as an Additional Limited Partner only upon furnishing to the General Partner (i) evidence of acceptance, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the power of attorney granted in Section 2.4 hereof, (ii) a counterpart signature page to this Agreement executed by such Person and (iii) such other documents or instruments as may be required in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner in order to effect such Person’s admission as an Additional Limited Partner.

B. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12.2, no Person shall be admitted as an Additional Limited Partner without the consent of the General Partner, which consent may be given or withheld in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion. The admission of any Person as an Additional Limited Partner shall become effective on the date upon which the name of such Person is recorded on the books and records of the Partnership, following the consent of the General Partner to such admission.

C. If any Additional Limited Partner is admitted to the Partnership on any day other than the first day of a Fiscal Year, then Net Income, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocable among Partners and Assignees for such Fiscal Year shall be allocated among such Additional Limited Partner and all

67

other Partners and Assignees by taking into account their varying interests during the Fiscal Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using the “interim closing of the books” method or another permissible method selected by the General Partner. Solely for purposes of making such allocations, each of such items for the calendar month in which an admission of any Additional Limited Partner occurs shall be allocated among all the Partners and Assignees including such Additional Limited Partner, in accordance with the principles described in Section 11.6C hereof. All distributions of Available Cash with respect to which the Partnership Record Date is before the date of such admission shall be made solely to Partners and Assignees other than the Additional Limited Partner, and all distributions of Available Cash thereafter shall be made to all the Partners and Assignees including such Additional Limited Partner.

Section 12.3 Amendment of Agreement and Certificate of Limited Partnership. For the admission to the Partnership of any Partner, the General Partner shall take all steps necessary and appropriate under the Act to amend the records of the Partnership and, if necessary, to prepare as soon as practical an amendment of this Agreement (including an amendment of Exhibit A) and, if required by law, shall prepare and file an amendment to the Certificate and may for this purpose exercise the power of attorney granted pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof.

Section 12.4 Admission of Initial Limited Partners. The Persons listed on Exhibit A as limited partners of the Partnership shall be admitted to the Partnership as Limited Partners upon their execution and delivery of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 13

DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION

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 shall continue the business of the Partnership without dissolution. However, the Partnership shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up, upon the first to occur of any of the following (each a “Liquidating Event”):

A. the expiration of its term as provided in Section 2.5 hereof;

B. an event of withdrawal, as defined in the Act (including, without limitation, bankruptcy), of the sole General Partner unless, within ninety (90) days after the withdrawal, a “majority in interest” (as such phrase is used in Section 17-801(3) of the Act) 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 successor General Partner:

C. an election to dissolve the Partnership made by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, with or without the Consent of the Limited Partners;

D. entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of the Act;

68

E. the occurrence of a Terminating Capital Transaction;

F. the Redemption (or acquisition by the Special Limited Partner and/or the General Partner) of all Partnership Common Units other than Partnership Common Units held by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner that holds all of the interests in the General Partner; or

G. the Redemption (or acquisition by the General Partner) of all Partnership Common Units other than Partnership Common Units held by the General Partner.

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. After the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, 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 that there is no remaining General Partner or the General Partner has dissolved, become bankrupt within the meaning of the Act or ceased to operate, any Person elected by a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners (the General Partner or such other Person being referred to herein as 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 property, 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 in the Previous General Partner) shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

(1) First, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to creditors other than the Partners and their Assignees (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof);

(2) Second, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the General Partner (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof), including, but not limited to, amounts due as reimbursements under Section 7.4 hereof;

(3) Third, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the other Partners and any Assignees (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof); and

(4) Subject to the terms of any Partnership Unit Designation, the balance, if any, to the General Partner, the Limited Partners and any Assignees in accordance with and in proportion to their positive Capital Account balances, after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all periods.

The General Partner shall not receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Article 13.

69

B. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.2A hereof that 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 13.2A 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. In the event that 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 Partners and Assignees that have positive Capital Accounts in compliance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2) to the extent of, and in proportion to, positive Capital Account balances. If any Partner has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all 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. In the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner or the Liquidator, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Partners pursuant to this Article 13 may be withheld or escrowed to provide a reasonable reserve for Partnership liabilities (contingent or otherwise) and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Partnership, provided that such withheld or escrowed amounts shall be distributed to the General Partner and Limited Partners in the manner and order of priority set forth in Section 13.2A hereof as soon as practicable.

Section 13.3 Deemed Distribution and Recontribution. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 13, in the event that the Partnership is liquidated within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), but no Liquidating Event has occurred, the Partnership’s Property shall not be liquidated, the Partnership’s liabilities shall not be paid or discharged and the Partnership’s affairs shall not be wound up. Instead, for federal income tax purposes the Partnership shall be deemed to have distributed the Property in kind to the Partners and the Assignees, who shall be deemed to have assumed and taken such Property subject to all Partnership liabilities, all in accordance with their respective Capital Accounts. Immediately thereafter, the Partners and the Assignees shall be deemed to have recontributed the Partnership Property in kind to the Partnership, which shall be deemed to have assumed and taken such Property subject to all such liabilities; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 13.3 shall be deemed to have constituted any Assignee as a Substituted Limited Partner without compliance with the provisions of Section 11.4 hereof.

70

Section 13.4 Rights of Limited Partners.

Section 14.2 Amendments. Amendments to this Agreement may be proposed by the General Partner or by a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners. Following such proposal, the General Partner shall submit any proposed amendment to the Limited Partners. The General Partner shall seek the written consent of the Limited Partners on the proposed amendment or shall call a meeting to vote thereon and to transact any other business that the General Partner may deem appropriate. For purposes of obtaining a written consent, the General Partner may

71

require a response within a reasonable specified time, but not less than fifteen (15) days, and failure to respond in such time period shall constitute a consent that is consistent with the General Partner’s recommendation with respect to the proposal; provided, however, that an action shall become effective at such time as requisite consents are received even if prior to such specified time.

Section 14.3 Meetings of the Partners.

A. Meetings of the Partners may be called by the General Partner and shall be called upon the receipt by the General Partner of a written request by a Majority in Interest of the Limited Partners. The call shall state the nature of the business to be transacted. Notice of any such meeting shall be given to all Partners not less than seven (7) days nor more than thirty (30) days prior to the date of such meeting. Partners may vote in person or by proxy at such meeting. Whenever the vote or Consent of Partners is permitted or required under this Agreement, such vote or Consent may be given at a meeting of Partners or may be given in accordance with the procedure prescribed in Section 14.3B hereof.

B. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Partners may be taken without a meeting if a written consent setting forth the action so taken is signed by a majority of the Percentage Interests of the Partners (or such other percentage as is expressly required by this Agreement for the action in question). Such consent may be in one instrument or in several instruments, and shall have the same force and effect as a vote of a majority of the Percentage Interests of the Partners (or such other percentage as is expressly required by this Agreement). Such consent shall be filed with the General Partner. An action so taken shall be deemed to have been taken at a meeting held on the effective date so certified.

C. Each Limited Partner may authorize any Person or Persons to act for it by proxy on all matters in which a Limited Partner is entitled to participate, including waiving notice of any meeting, or voting or participating at a meeting. Every proxy must be signed by the Limited Partner or its attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of eleven (11) months from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy (or there is receipt of a proxy authorizing a later date). Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the Limited Partner executing it, such revocation to be effective upon the Partnership’s receipt of written notice of such revocation from the Limited Partner executing such proxy.

D. Each meeting of Partners shall be conducted by the General Partner or such other Person as the General Partner may appoint pursuant to such rules for the conduct of the meeting as the General Partner or such other Person deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion. Without limitation, meetings of Partners may be conducted in the same manner as meetings of the General Partner’s shareholders and may be held at the same time as, and as part of, the meetings of the General Partner’s shareholders.

In the event of a conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any non-mandatory provision of the Act, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and take precedence.

Section 15.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains all of the understandings and agreements between and among the Partners with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the rights, interests and obligations of the Partners with respect to the Partnership.

Section 15.10 Invalidity of Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected thereby.

Section 15.11 Limitation to Preserve REIT Status. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, to the extent that the amount paid, credited, distributed or reimbursed by the Partnership to any REIT Partner or its officers, directors, employees or agents, whether as a reimbursement, fee, expense or indemnity (a “REIT Payment”), would constitute gross income to the REIT Partner (or, if the REIT Partner is a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) of a REIT, to such REIT) for purposes of Code Section 856(c)(2) or Code Section 856(c)(3), then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the amount of such REIT Payments, as selected by the General Partner in its discretion from among items of potential distribution, reimbursement, fees, expenses and indemnities, shall be reduced for any Fiscal Year so that the REIT Payments, as so reduced, for or with respect to such REIT Partner shall not exceed the lesser of:

(1) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) four and nine-tenths percent (4.9%) of the REIT Partner’s (or, if the REIT Partner is a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) of a REIT, such REIT’s) total gross income (but excluding the amount of any REIT Payments) for the Fiscal Year that is described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(2) over (b) the amount of gross income (within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(2)) derived by the REIT Partner (or, if the REIT Partner is a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) of a REIT, by such REIT) from sources other than those described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(2) (but not including the amount of any REIT Payments); or

74

(2) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) twenty-four percent (24%) of the REIT Partner’s (or, if the REIT Partner is a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) of a REIT, such REIT’s) total gross income (but excluding the amount of any REIT Payments) for the Fiscal Year that is described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(3) over (b) the amount of gross income (within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(3)) derived by the REIT Partner (or, if the REIT Partner is a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) of a REIT, by such REIT) from sources other than those described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(3) (but not including the amount of any REIT Payments);

provided, however, that REIT Payments in excess of the amounts set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above may be made if the General Partner, as a condition precedent, obtains an opinion of tax counsel that the receipt of such excess amounts shall not adversely affect the REIT Partner’s (or, if the REIT Partner is a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) of a REIT, such REIT’s) ability to qualify as a REIT. To the extent that REIT Payments may not be made in a Fiscal Year as a consequence of the limitations set forth in this Section 15.11, such REIT Payments shall carry over and shall be treated as arising in the following Fiscal Year. The purpose of the limitations contained in this Section 15.11 is to prevent any REIT Partner (or, if the REIT Partner is a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)) of a REIT, such REIT) from failing to qualify as a REIT under the Code by reason of such REIT Partner’s share of items, including distributions, reimbursements, fees, expenses or indemnities, receivable directly or indirectly from the Partnership, and this Section 15.11 shall be interpreted and applied to effectuate such purpose.

Section 15.12 No Partition. No Partner nor any successor-in-interest to a Partner shall have the right while this Agreement remains in effect to have any property of the Partnership partitioned, or to file a complaint or institute any proceeding at law or in equity to have such property of the Partnership partitioned, and each Partner, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns hereby waives any such right. It is the intention of the Partners that the rights of the parties hereto and their successors-in-interest to Partnership property, as among themselves, shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement, and that the rights of the Partners and their successors-in-interest shall be subject to the limitations and restrictions as set forth in this Agreement.

Section 15.13 No Third-Party Rights Created Hereby. The provisions of this Agreement are solely for the purpose of defining the interests of the Partners, inter se; and no other person, firm or entity (i.e., a party who is not a signatory hereto or a permitted successor to such signatory hereto) shall have any right, power, title or interest by way of subrogation or otherwise, in and to the rights, powers, title and provisions of this Agreement. No creditor or other third party having dealings with the Partnership shall have the right to enforce the right or obligation of any Partner to make Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership or to pursue any other right or remedy hereunder or at law or in equity. None of the rights or obligations of the Partners herein set forth to make Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership shall be deemed an asset of the Partnership for any purpose by any creditor or other third party, nor may any such rights or obligations be sold, transferred or assigned by the Partnership or pledged or encumbered by the Partnership to secure any debt or other obligation of the Partnership or any of the Partners.

PARTNERS AND PARTNERSHIP UNITS

Exhibit A, the list of Partners and Partnership Units, is maintained by the General Partner and omitted from this copy of the Agreement.

EXHIBIT B

EXAMPLES REGARDING ADJUSTMENT FACTOR

For purposes of the following examples, it is assumed that (a) the Adjustment Factor in effect on the Effective Date is 1.0 and (b) on the date that is one day following the Effective Date (the “Partnership Record Date” for purposes of these examples), prior to the events described in the examples, there are 100 REIT Shares issued and outstanding.

Example 1

On the Partnership Record Date, the Previous General Partner declares a dividend on its outstanding REIT Shares in REIT Shares. The amount of the dividend is one REIT Share paid in respect of each REIT Share owned. Pursuant to Paragraph (i) of the definition of “Adjustment Factor,” the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted on the Partnership Record Date, effective immediately after the stock dividend is declared, as follows:

1.0 * 200 OVER 100 = 2.0

Accordingly, the Adjustment Factor after the stock dividend is declared is 2.0.

Example 2

On the Partnership Record Date, the Previous General Partner distributes options to purchase REIT Shares to all holders of its REIT Shares. The amount of the distribution is one option to acquire one REIT Share in respect of each REIT Share owned. The strike price is $4.00 a share. The Value of a REIT Share on the Partnership Record Date is $5.00 per share. Pursuant to Paragraph (ii) of the definition of “Adjustment Factor,” the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted on the Partnership Record Date, effective immediately after the options are distributed, as follows:

1.0 * {(100 + 100)} OVER {(100 + {100 * $4.00} OVER {$5.00})} = 1.1111

Accordingly, the Adjustment Factor after the options are distributed is 1.1111. If the options expire or become no longer exercisable, then the retroactive adjustment specified in Paragraph (ii) of the definition of “Adjustment Factor” shall apply.

Example 3

On the Partnership Record Date, the Previous General Partner distributes assets to all holders of its REIT Shares. The amount of the distribution is one asset with a fair market value (as determined by the General Partner) of $1.00 in respect of each REIT Share owned. It is also assumed that the assets do not relate to assets received by the Previous General Partner or the General Partner pursuant to a pro rata distribution by the Partnership. The Value of a REIT Share on the Partnership Record Date is $5.00 a share. Pursuant to Paragraph (iii) of the definition of “Adjustment Factor,” the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted on the Partnership Record Date, effective immediately after the assets are distributed, as follows:

1.0 * {$5.00} OVER {$5.00 - $1.00} = 1.25

Accordingly, the Adjustment Factor after the assets are distributed is 1.25.

Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement or the relevant LTIP Agreement, Holders of LTIP Units shall be allocated Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership in amounts per LTIP Unit determined in the same manner as amounts allocated per Partnership Common Unit are determined; provided, however, that for any LTIP Unit that initially has a Sharing Percentage that is less than 100%, until the Catch-Up Year (if any) for such LTIP Unit, the amounts so allocated with respect to such LTIP Unit pursuant to Section 6.2A(3) or Section 6.2B of the Agreement shall be equal to the product of such Sharing Percentage and the amount that would otherwise be allocable with respect to such LTIP Unit pursuant to this Section 4(a). The allocations provided by the preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 6.3B of the Agreement and any special allocations required by Section 4(b) or Section 4(c) hereof. The General Partner is authorized in its discretion to delay or accelerate the participation of the LTIP Units in allocations of Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership under this Section 4(a), or to adjust the allocations made under this Section 4(a), so that the ratio of (i) the total amount of Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership allocated with respect to each LTIP Unit in any taxable year, to (ii) the total amount distributed with respect to that LTIP Unit for such taxable year, is more nearly equal to the ratio of (i) the Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership allocated with respect to the Partnership Common Units for such taxable year, to (ii) the amounts distributed with respect to the Partnership Common Units for such taxable year.

(b) Special Allocations with Respect to LTIP Units in a Catch-Up Year. In the Catch-Up Year (if any) for any LTIP Unit that initially has a Sharing Percentage that is less than 100%, (i) Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership allocable under Article 6 of the Agreement to holders of Partnership Common Units and LTIP Units not subject to this Section 4(b) shall be recomputed after giving effect to the special allocations with respect to such LTIP Unit under clause (ii) of this Section 4(b), and (ii) the holder of such LTIP Unit shall be specially allocated an amount of Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership equal to the excess of (x) the respective cumulative amounts that would have been allocated with respect to such LTIP Unit had such LTIP Unit been a Partnership Common Unit during the period from the date of issuance of such LTIP Unit through the end of the Fiscal Year immediately prior to the Catch-Up Year, over (y) the respective cumulative amounts actually allocated with respect to such LTIP Unit during such period. Such special allocation shall be in addition to any amounts allocated to the holder of such LTIP Unit pursuant to Section 4(a).

(c) Special Allocations of Liquidating Gains with Respect to LTIP Units. If Liquidating Gains are allocated under this Section 4(c), Net Income, Net Loss and depreciation and amortization expenses of the Partnership allocable under Article 6 of the Agreement to holders of Partnership Common Units and LTIP Units not subject to this Section 4(c) shall be recomputed without regard to the Liquidating Gains so allocated. After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 6.3.B of the Agreement and Section 4(d) hereof, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2 of the Agreement, any Liquidating Gains shall first be allocated to the holders of Eligible Units until the Economic Capital Account Balance of each such holder, to the extent attributable to such holder’s ownership of Eligible Units, is equal to

F-5

(i) the REIT Share Economic Target, multiplied by (ii) the number of such holder’s Eligible Units, it being understood that Liquidating Gains will be so allocated only to the extent each such Eligible Unit is eligible to be allocated Liquidating Gains. Except as otherwise provided in any LTIP Agreement, any such allocations shall be made among the holders of Eligible Units in proportion to the amounts eligible to be allocated to each under this Section 4(c). The parties agree that the intent of this Section 4(c) is to make the Capital Account balances of the holders of LTIP Units, to the extent attributable to their LTIP Units, economically equivalent (on a per-unit basis) to the Market Value of a REIT Share on the date as of which such special allocation pursuant to this Section 4(c) is being made, multiplied by the Conversion Factor, but only to the extent the Partnership has recognized cumulative net gains with respect to its assets since the issuance of the relevant LTIP Unit. The allocations set forth in this Section 4(c) shall be taken into account for determining the Capital Account of each Partner, including for purposes of Section 6.3.C of the Agreement.

(d) Forfeiture Allocations. Upon a forfeiture of any Unvested LTIP Units by any Partner, gross items of income, gain, loss or deduction shall be allocated to such Partner if and to the extent required by final Regulations promulgated after August 11, 2020 to ensure that allocations made with respect to all unvested Partnership Interests are recognized under Code Section 704(b).

(a) Operating Distributions. Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement or the relevant LTIP Agreement, holders of LTIP Units shall be entitled to receive, if, when and as authorized by the General Partner out of funds or other property legally available for the payment of distributions, regular, special, extraordinary or other distributions (other than distributions upon or pursuant to the liquidation of the Partnership) which may be made from time to time, in an amount per LTIP Unit equal to the amount of any such distributions that would have been payable to such holders if the LTIP Units had been Partnership Common Units (if applicable, assuming such LTIP Units were held for the entire period to which such distributions relate); provided, that if any LTIP Unit has a Sharing Percentage then in effect that is less than 100%, the holder of such LTIP Unit will only be entitled to receive such distributions in an amount equal to the product of the Sharing Percentage for such LTIP Unit and the amount that would otherwise be distributable with respect to such LTIP Unit pursuant to this Section 5(a).

(b) Liquidating Distributions. Each holder of LTIP Units shall also be entitled to receive, if, when and as authorized by the General Partner out of funds or other property legally available for the payment of distributions, distributions upon liquidation of the Partnership in an amount equal to the positive balance of such holder’s Capital Account as of the date of liquidation (after taking into account any allocations pursuant to the liquidation) to the extent attributable to the ownership of such LTIP Units as set forth in Section 13.2 of the Agreement.

F-6

(c) Distributions Generally. Distributions on the LTIP Units, if authorized, shall be payable on such dates and in such manner as may be authorized by the General Partner. Absent a contrary determination by the General Partner, the payment and record dates for distributions on LTIP Units shall be the same as the payment and record dates for the corresponding distribution on the Partnership Common Units. A holder of LTIP Units will only be entitled to distributions with respect to an LTIP Unit as set forth in this Exhibit F and, in making distributions pursuant to Section 5.1 of the Agreement, the General Partner of the Partnership shall take into account the provisions of this Section 5.

Holders of LTIP Units shall not be entitled to the Redemption right provided for in Section 8.6 of the Agreement, unless, until and to the extent such LTIP Units have been converted into Partnership Common Units.

(a) A holder of LTIP Units that is a Qualifying Party shall have the right (the “Conversion Right”), at such holder’s option, at any time to convert all or a portion of such holder’s Vested LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units, taking into account all adjustments (if any) made pursuant to Section 8 hereof; provided, however, that a Qualifying Party may not exercise the Conversion Right for less than one thousand (1,000) Vested LTIP Units or, if such Qualifying Party holds less than one thousand (1,000) Vested LTIP Units, all of the Vested LTIP Units held by such Qualifying Party that are not subject to the limitation on conversion under Section 7(b) hereof. Qualifying Parties shall not have the right to convert Unvested LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units until they become Vested LTIP Units; provided, however, that when a Qualifying Party is notified of the expected occurrence of an event that will cause his or her Unvested LTIP Units to become Vested LTIP Units, such Qualifying Party may give the Partnership a Conversion Notice conditioned upon and effective as of the time of vesting and such Conversion Notice, unless subsequently revoked by the Qualifying Party, shall be accepted by the Partnership subject to such condition. In all cases, the conversion of any LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units shall be subject to the conditions and procedures set forth in this Section 7.

(b) A Qualifying Party may convert Vested LTIP Units into an equal number of Partnership Common Units, giving effect to all adjustments (if any) made pursuant to Section 8 hereof; provided, however, that in no event may a Qualifying Party convert a number of Vested LTIP Units that exceeds (x) the Economic Capital Account Balance of such Qualifying Party that is attributable to such Qualifying Party’s ownership of LTIP Units, divided by (y) the REIT Share Economic Target, in each case, determined as of a date on which satisfaction of the Redemption Threshold is being determined (the “Capital Account Limitation”). In order to exercise the Conversion Right, a Qualifying Party shall deliver a Conversion Notice to the Partnership not less than three (3) nor more than ten (10) days prior to the date of conversion (the “Conversion Date”) specified in such Conversion Notice; provided, however, that if the General Partner has not given to the Qualifying Party notice of a proposed or upcoming Transaction at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such Transaction, then the Qualifying Party shall have the right to deliver a Conversion Notice until the earlier of (x) the tenth (10th) day after such notice from the General Partner of a Transaction or (y) the third (3rd) Business Day immediately preceding the effective date of such Transaction. A Conversion Notice shall be provided in the manner provided in Section 15.1 of the Agreement. Each Qualifying Party

F-7

seeking to convert Vested LTIP Units covenants and agrees with the Partnership that all Vested LTIP Units to be converted pursuant to this Section 7 shall be free and clear of all liens. For purposes of the definition of “Twelve-Month Period” in the Agreement, any holder of LTIP Units that have been converted to Partnership Common Units shall be deemed to have acquired such Partnership Common Units when such LTIP Units were acquired. A holder of LTIP Units that is a Qualifying Party may deliver a Notice of Redemption pursuant to Section 8.6 of the Agreement relating to the Partnership Common Units to be received upon conversion of LTIP Units in advance of the Conversion Date; provided, however, that the Redemption of such Partnership Common Units shall not take place until on or after the Conversion Date. For clarity, it is noted that the objective of this paragraph is to enable a Qualifying Party that satisfies the Twelve-Month Period to effect a Redemption of the Partnership Common Units received upon conversion of Vested LTIP Units simultaneously with such conversion, with the further consequence that, if the Previous General Partner elects to assume the Partnership’s redemption obligation with respect to such Partnership Common Units under Section 8.6 of the Agreement by delivering to such Qualifying Party REIT Shares rather than cash, then such Qualifying Party can receive such REIT Shares simultaneously with the conversion of such Vested LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units. The General Partner shall cooperate with a Qualifying Party to coordinate the timing of the different events described in the foregoing sentence.

(c) The Partnership, at any time at the election of the General Partner, may cause any number of Vested LTIP Units to be converted (a “Forced Conversion”) into an equal number of Partnership Common Units, giving effect to all adjustments (if any) made pursuant to Section 8 hereof; provided, however, that the Partnership may not cause a Forced Conversion of any LTIP Units that would not at the time be eligible for conversion at the option of the holder thereof pursuant to Section 7(b) hereof. In order to exercise its right of Forced Conversion, the Partnership shall deliver a written notice of such Forced Conversion (a “Forced Conversion Notice”) to the applicable holder of LTIP Units specifying the number of LTIP Units subject to the Forced Conversion, which notice shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the Conversion Date specified in such notice. A Forced Conversion Notice shall be provided in the manner provided in Section 15.1 of the Agreement.

(d) A conversion of Vested LTIP Units for which the holder thereof has given a Conversion Notice, or the Partnership has given a Forced Conversion Notice, shall occur automatically after the close of business on the applicable Conversion Date without any action on the part of such holder of LTIP Units, as of which time such holder of LTIP Units shall be credited on the books and records of the Partnership as of the opening of business on the next day with the number of Partnership Common Units into which such LTIP Units were converted. After the conversion of LTIP Units as aforesaid, the Partnership shall deliver to such holder of LTIP Units, upon his or her written request, a certificate of the General Partner certifying the number of Partnership Common Units and remaining LTIP Units, if any, held by such person immediately after such conversion. The Assignee of any Limited Partner may exercise the rights of such Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 7 and such Limited Partner shall be bound by the exercise of such rights by the Assignee.

F-8

(e) For purposes of making future allocations under Section 4(c) hereof and applying the Capital Account Limitation, if any LTIP Units are converted into Partnership Common Units, the portion of the Economic Capital Account Balance of the holder of such LTIP Units that is treated as attributable to such holder’s LTIP Units shall be reduced, as of the date of conversion, by the product of the number of LTIP Units converted and the REIT Share Economic Target, determined as of the relevant Conversion Date.

(f) If the Partnership or the Previous General Partner shall be a party to any transaction (including without limitation a merger, consolidation, statutory exchange, sale of all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets or other business combination or reorganization, but excluding any Adjustment Event, in each case, as a result of which Partnership Common Units shall be exchanged for or converted into the right, or the holders shall otherwise be entitled, to receive cash, securities or other property or any combination thereof (each of the foregoing being referred to herein as a “Transaction”)), then the General Partner shall, immediately prior to the Transaction, exercise its right to cause a Forced Conversion with respect to the maximum number of LTIP Units then eligible for conversion, taking into account any allocations that occur in connection with the Transaction or that would occur in connection with the Transaction if the assets of the Partnership were sold at the Transaction price or the portion thereof attributable to the Partnership, as determined by the General Partner in good faith, or if applicable, at a value for the Partnership assets determined by the General Partner in good faith using the value attributed to the Partnership Common Units in the context of the Transaction (in which case the Conversion Date shall be the effective date of the Transaction and the conversion shall occur immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Transaction). In anticipation of such Forced Conversion and the consummation of the Transaction, the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each holder of LTIP Units to be afforded the right to receive in connection with such Transaction in consideration for the Partnership Common Units into which his or her LTIP Units will be converted the same kind and amount of cash, securities and other property (or any combination thereof) receivable upon the consummation of such Transaction by a holder of the same number of Partnership Common Units, assuming such holder is not a Person with which the Partnership consolidated or into which the Partnership merged or which merged into the Partnership or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (a “Constituent Person”), or an affiliate of a Constituent Person. In the event that holders of Partnership Common Units have the opportunity to elect the form or type of consideration to be received upon consummation of the Transaction, prior to such Transaction, the General Partner shall give prompt written notice to each holder of LTIP Units of such opportunity, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to afford each holder of LTIP Units the right to elect, by written notice to the General Partner, the form or type of consideration to be received upon conversion of each LTIP Unit held by such holder into Partnership Common Units in connection with such Transaction. If a holder of LTIP Units fails to make such an election, such holder (and any of its transferees) shall receive upon conversion of each LTIP Unit held by him or her (or by any of his or her transferees) the same kind and amount of consideration that a holder of Partnership Common Units would receive if such holder of Partnership Common Units failed to make such an election. Subject to the rights of the Partnership and the General Partner under any LTIP Agreement, the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the terms of any Transaction to be consistent with the provisions of this Section 7(f) and to enter into an agreement with the successor or acquiring entity, as the case may be, for the benefit of any holder of LTIP Units that will not be converted into Partnership Common Units in connection with the Transaction that will (i) contain provisions enabling the Qualifying Parties that remain outstanding after such Transaction to convert their LTIP Units into securities as comparable as reasonably possible under the circumstances to the Partnership Common Units and (ii) preserve as far as reasonably possible under the circumstances the distribution, special allocation, conversion, and other rights set forth in the Agreement, including this Exhibit F, for the benefit of the holder of LTIP Units.

F-9

(g) No conversion of LTIP Units into Partnership Common Units may be made by a Person if, based on the advice of the Partnership’s counsel or accounting firm, the Partnership believes there is a material risk that such conversion could (i) result in the Partnership’s being treated as an association taxable as a corporation, (ii) adversely affect the ability of the Previous General Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT or subject the Previous General Partner to any additional taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code, or (iii) be 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 cause the Partnership to fail to qualify for a safe harbor from such treatment which the Partnership desires to preserve.

The Partnership shall maintain at all times a one-to-one correspondence between LTIP Units and Partnership Common Units for conversion, distributions, allocations and other purposes, including without limitation complying with the following procedures; provided, that the foregoing is not intended to alter (a) differences as a result of a Sharing Percentage that is less than 100%, (b) the special allocations pursuant to Section 4 hereof, or (c) differences between distributions to be made with respect to LTIP Units and Partnership Common Units pursuant to Section 13.2 of the Agreement and Section 5(b) hereof in the event that the Capital Accounts attributable to the LTIP Units are less than those attributable to Partnership Common Units due to insufficient special allocations pursuant to Section 4(c) hereof or related provisions. If an Adjustment Event (as defined below) occurs, then the General Partner shall take any action reasonably necessary, including any amendment to the Agreement or update Exhibit A to the Agreement adjusting the number of outstanding LTIP Units or subdividing or combining outstanding LTIP Units, to maintain a one-for-one conversion and economic equivalence ratio between Partnership Common Units and LTIP Units. The following shall be “Adjustment Events”: (i) the Partnership makes a distribution on all outstanding Partnership Common Units in Partnership Units, (ii) the Partnership subdivides the outstanding Partnership Common Units into a greater number of units or combines the outstanding Partnership Common Units into a smaller number of units, or (iii) the Partnership issues any Partnership Units in exchange for its outstanding Partnership Common Units by way of a reclassification or recapitalization of its Partnership Common Units. If more than one Adjustment Event occurs, any adjustment to the LTIP Units need be made only once using a single formula that takes into account each and every Adjustment Event as if all Adjustment Events occurred simultaneously. For the avoidance of doubt, the following shall not be Adjustment Events: (x) the issuance of Partnership Units in a financing, reorganization, acquisition or other similar business transaction, (y) the issuance of Partnership Units pursuant to any employee benefit or compensation plan or distribution reinvestment plan, or (z) the issuance of any Partnership Units to the General Partner in respect of a capital contribution to the Partnership. If the Partnership takes an action affecting the Partnership Common Units other than actions specifically described above as “Adjustment Events,” and in the opinion of the General Partner such action would require an action to maintain the one-to-one correspondence described above, the General Partner shall have the right to take such action, to the extent permitted by law, the Plan and by any other applicable Equity

F-10

Plan or other compensatory arrangement or incentive program pursuant to which LTIP Units are issued, in such manner and at such time as the General Partner, in its sole discretion, may determine to be reasonably appropriate under the circumstances. If an amendment is made to the Agreement adjusting the number of outstanding LTIP Units as herein provided, the Partnership shall promptly file in the books and records of the Partnership an officer’s certificate setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent manifest error. Promptly after the filing of such certificate, the Partnership shall mail a notice to each holder of LTIP Units setting forth the adjustment to his or her LTIP Units and the effective date of such adjustment. Any adjustment to the number of outstanding LTIP Units pursuant to this Section 8 shall be binding on the Partnership and every Limited Partner.

All LTIP Units that have been issued and reacquired in any manner by the Partnership shall be deemed cancelled and no longer outstanding.

The General Partner shall amend Exhibit A to the Agreement from time to time to the extent necessary to reflect accurately the issuance of, and subsequent redemption, or any other event having an effect on the ownership of, the LTIP Units. Unless the General Partner determines otherwise, LTIP Units shall not be certificated.

Limited Partners holding LTIP Units shall have the same voting rights as Limited Partners holding Partnership Common Units, with the LTIP Units voting together as a single class with the Partnership Common Units and having one vote per LTIP Unit, and holders of LTIP Units shall not be entitled to approve, vote on or consent to any other matter.

Subject to the terms of any Vesting Agreement, LTIP Units are subject to the same restrictions on transfer, and the holders of LTIP Units shall be entitled to the same rights of transfer, as are applicable to Partnership Common Units as set forth in the Agreement.

Each Partner authorizes the General Partner to elect to apply the safe harbor (the “Section 83 Safe Harbor”) set forth in proposed Regulations Section 1.83-3(l) and proposed Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure published in Notice 2005-43 (together, the “Proposed Section 83 Safe Harbor Regulation”) (under which the fair market value of a Partnership Interest that is Transferred in connection with the performance of services is treated as being equal to the liquidation value of the interest), or in similar Regulations or guidance, if such Proposed Section 83 Safe Harbor Regulation or similar Regulations are promulgated as final or temporary Regulations. If the General Partner determines that the Partnership should make such election, the General Partner is hereby authorized to amend the Agreement without

F-11

the consent of any other Partner to provide that (i) the Partnership is authorized and directed to elect the Section 83 Safe Harbor, (ii) the Partnership and each of its Partners (including any Person to whom a Partnership Interest, including an LTIP Unit, is Transferred in connection with the performance of services) will comply with all requirements of the Section 83 Safe Harbor with respect to all Partnership Interests Transferred in connection with the performance of services while such election remains in effect, and (iii) the Partnership and each of its Partners will take all actions necessary, including providing the Partnership with any required information, to permit the Partnership to comply with the requirements set forth or referred to in the applicable Regulations for such election to be effective until such time (if any) as the General Partner determines, in its sole discretion, that the Partnership should terminate such election. The General Partner is further authorized to amend the Agreement to modify Article 6 of the Agreement to the extent the General Partner determines in its discretion that such modification is necessary or desirable as a result of the issuance of any applicable law, Regulations, notice or ruling relating to the tax treatment of the transfer of Partnership Interests in connection with the performance of services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, each Partner expressly confirms that it will be legally bound by any such amendment.

This MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of                     , 2020 (the “Execution Date”), is by and among, Apartment Investment and Management Company, a Maryland corporation ( “DevCo”), and Aimco OP, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“DevCo OP”, and together with DevCo, “Recipient”), on the one hand, and Apartment Investment REIT Corp., a Maryland corporation and a subsidiary of DevCo (“SpinCo”), and Aimco Properties, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and a subsidiary of DevCo (“SpinCo OP”, and together with SpinCo, “Provider”), on the other hand. Provider and Recipient are referred to individually as a “Party” and collectively the “Parties”. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the SDA (as defined below).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated                     , 2020, by and among DevCo, DevCo OP, SpinCo and SpinCo OP (the “SDA”), the Parties have agreed to undertake certain transactions, including the Restructuring;

WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the SDA, including the Restructuring, Recipient desires to receive certain services from Provider and Provider desires to provide such services to Recipient; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the SDA, the Parties have agreed to enter into this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which the Parties hereby acknowledge, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

SERVICES

Section 1.1 Services. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Provider shall provide, or cause one or more of its Representatives or a third party to provide, to Recipient the services set forth in Annex A hereto (collectively, the “Services”). The Services shall be limited to those services described in Annex A unless specifically modified by amendment in accordance with Section 11.4.

Section 1.2 Commercial Unreasonableness; Other Service Interruption. Without limitation of Section 9.1, Provider shall not be required to provide any Service to the extent the performance of such Services would require Provider to violate any Laws or could reasonably be expected to result in the breach of any applicable contract, license, lease or other agreement due to a failure to obtain a third party consent. In addition, without limiting Section 9.1, Provider will have the right to temporarily interrupt or suspend (a) the provision of Services for emergency maintenance purposes or (b) the operation of the facilities or systems of Provider providing any Services if it is the commercially reasonable judgment of Provider that such action

is necessary for maintenance or safety purposes. Provider will be relieved of its obligations to provide Services for the period of time that the relevant facilities or systems are shut down during maintenance. Upon becoming aware of the occurrence thereof, Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Recipient reasonable notice of the occurrence of any event which would cause Provider to interrupt, suspend, curtail or cease providing any Service pursuant to this Section 1.3.

Section 1.3 Additional Resources. In providing the Services, Provider shall not be obligated to: (a) hire or train any additional employees; (b) maintain the employment of any specific employee; or (c) expand its facilities or incur long-term capital expenses.

Section 1.4 Additional Services.

(a) If, during the term of this Agreement, Recipient reasonably determines that additional services that are not set forth in Annex A and that are not Excluded Services (as defined below) are necessary to conduct the Recipient’s business substantially as conducted immediately prior to the Execution Date, and Recipient is not reasonably able to provide or procure, on commercially reasonable terms, such services (each such service, an “Additional Service”), then Recipient may, by written notice to Provider, request that Provider provide (or cause to be provided pursuant to Article VI) such Additional Service. Subject to applicable Law, upon receipt of such request by Provider, Provider will mutually discuss such request with Recipient, including duration, service levels, resource requirements and additional associated fees, expenses and other costs and Provider will not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent to providing such Additional Service; provided, however, that to the extent Provider consents to so provide any Additional Services, Provider shall only be required to provide such Additional Services if and to the extent (i) such Additional Services were provided as of immediately prior to the Closing and (ii) Provider is able to provide, or cause to be provided, such Additional Services without unreasonable difficulty and without violation of Law or any applicable contract, license, lease or other agreement. In no event shall Provider provide or be deemed to provide any services described in Annex C (“Excluded Services”).

(b) With respect to any Additional Service that is to be provided hereunder, the Parties shall execute amendments to Annex A or Annex B (as described below) (if applicable) that set forth, among other things, (i) the time period during which such Additional Service shall be provided, (ii) a description of such Additional Service in reasonable detail and (iii) any additional terms and conditions specific to such Additional Service. At such time as any Additional Service is included on Annex A, such Additional Service shall be considered a Service for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 1.5 Title to Equipment; Management and Control; Intellectual Property and Data.

(a) All procedures, methods, systems, strategies, tools, equipment, facilities and other resources owned and used by Provider in connection with the provision of Services hereunder will remain the property of Provider and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, will at all times be under the sole direction and control of Provider.

2

(b) Except as may otherwise be expressly provided in this Agreement, the management of, and control over, the provision of the Services by Provider shall reside solely with Provider. Without limiting the foregoing, all employees and Representatives of Provider will be deemed for purposes of all compensation and employee benefits to be employees or Representatives of Provider and not employees or Representatives of Recipient, and in performing the Services, such employees and Representatives of Provider will be under the direction, control and supervision of Provider, and not of Recipient. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to transfer the employment of employees engaged in the provision of any Service from one Party to another.

(c) Recipient acknowledges that neither it nor any of its Representatives will acquire any right, title or interest (including any license rights or rights of use) in any Intellectual Property (including software) of Provider or its Subsidiaries, Representatives or licensors, and the licenses therefor that are owned by Provider or its Subsidiaries, Representatives or licensors, by reason of the provision of the Services provided under this Agreement.

(d) Each Party shall retain ownership of its and its Representatives’ Intellectual Property and data existing as of the date of this Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Parties, each Party agrees that any Intellectual Property or data of the other Party or its Representatives or licensors made available to such Party in connection with the Services, and any derivative works, additions, modifications, translations or enhancements of such Intellectual Property or data created or developed by a Party or its Representatives pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, “New Work”), are and shall remain the sole property of the original owner of such Intellectual Property or data (the “Original Owner”). Each of the Parties hereby assigns all of its rights, title and interest in and to such New Works to the Original Owner, and agrees to execute and to cause its Representatives to execute all such further instruments and documents and to take all such further action as the other Party may reasonably require in order to effectuate the terms and purposes of this Agreement. Subject to and without limiting the foregoing, Provider shall be the sole and exclusive owner of, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to grant Recipient or any of its Representatives any right, title, license, leasehold right or other interest in or to, any copyrights, patents, trade secrets, other intellectual property rights, ideas, concepts, techniques, inventions, processes, systems, works of authorship, resources, functionalities, interfaces, computer hardware or software, documentation or other work product developed, created, modified, improved, used or relied upon by Provider or its Representatives in connection with the Services or the performance of Provider’s obligations hereunder (“Work Product”), except that Recipient shall own all Work Product to the extent exclusively related to Recipient’s business. For the avoidance of doubt, no Work Product shall be considered a work made for hire within the meaning of Title 17 of the United States Code. Provider hereby assigns to Recipient all right, title and interest in and to the Work Product exclusively related to the Recipient’s business and Recipient hereby assigns to Provider all right, title and interest in and to any and all other Work Product.

Section 1.6 Services Managers. Provider appoints and designates                     , and Recipient appoints and designates                     , to act as their respective initial Services manager(s) and shall each designate alternative, successor or additional Services managers, as applicable, in the event that a designated Services manager is not available to perform such role hereunder (each such person in respect of a Party, a “Services Manager”). Each Services Manager will be directly responsible for coordinating and managing the delivery or receipt of the Services and will have the authority to act on such Party’s behalf with respect to matters relating to this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, all communications relating to routine matters involving this Agreement and the Services, including the termination of any Service, will be directed to the applicable Services Manager or Services Managers of each Party, with copies delivered in accordance with Section 11.1.

Section 1.7 Obligations. The provision of Services under this Agreement is subject to the following:

(a) Neither Provider nor any of its Affiliates shall be liable for any action or inaction taken or omitted to be taken by it pursuant to, and in accordance with, instructions received from Recipient;

(b) Each Party may rely upon any written notice or other written or electronic communication of any nature with the other Party (whether or not such written notice or other written or electronic communication is made in a manner permitted or required by this Agreement), and neither Party shall have any duty to verify the identity or authority of the other Party signing or making any such notice or communication;

(c) Either Party may refuse to take any action requested by the other Party if it is not an action required to be taken under this Agreement;

(d) Provider shall not have any obligation to perform any Service to the extent that performing such Service is dependent upon, or otherwise requires, Recipient to perform some service, operation or function prior to Provider performing any such Service unless Recipient shall have, in fact, prior to when Provider is required to perform such Service, performed such other service, operation or function consistent with commercially reasonable business practices;

(e) Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement (including the Annexes hereto), Provider shall have no obligation to provide Recipient with any Excluded Services; and

(f) Representatives of Recipient receiving the Services or working with Provider in connection with the provision of Services shall at all times be instructed to, and Recipient shall take commercially reasonable efforts to cause them to comply with, all generally-applicable, reasonable physical and technological security rules, policies and procedures of Provider or its Representatives provided in writing or made known or available to Recipient by Provider or its Representatives.

ARTICLE II

FEES AND PAYMENT

Section 2.1 Fees and Expenses. The fees for the Services shall be Provider’s fully-burdened costs (including allocations of internal costs consistent with past practice and United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and any and all third-party costs and expenses incurred by Provider or its Representatives in connection with the Services provided hereunder, including travel expenses and costs in obtaining third-party consents (including licenses)) (the “Fees”).

4

Section 2.2 Taxes. Recipient shall pay to Provider (or reimburse Provider for) amounts equal to any sales, use, excise, value added or other similar Taxes, however designated or levied, based upon any Fees or other amounts due under this Agreement, the provision of the Services or the provision or use of supplies or inventory provided under this Agreement, as provided to Recipient by Provider (such Taxes, “Covered Taxes”). The Parties agree that Covered Taxes shall not include any Taxes imposed on or measured by the gross or net income of Provider. If additional Covered Taxes are determined to be due and payable as a result of an audit by a Taxing Authority, Recipient agrees to reimburse Provider for such additional Covered Taxes to the extent that the Covered Taxes for which Provider seeks reimbursement are linked to Services invoices that are subject to the imposition by such Taxing Authority of Covered Taxes. All amounts under this Agreement are expressed exclusive of any Covered Taxes.

Section 2.3 Payment; Disputed Amounts.

(a) Provider’s invoices with respect to the Services shall be paid by Recipient within thirty (30) calendar days after Recipient’s receipt of each such invoice (the “Due Date”). If Recipient fails to make any payment by the Due Date (other than failure to make any payment in good faith disputed as not in accordance with this Agreement), Recipient shall be required to pay, in addition to the amount of any unpaid Fees and expenses, interest on such amount at (i) the rate per annum equal to the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal from time to time, measured as of the applicable Due Date, plus 2.0%, or (ii) if lower, the highest rate of interest permitted by applicable Law at such time, in each case compounded monthly from, and including, the relevant Due Date through, but excluding, the actual date of payment.

(b) Recipient shall promptly notify Provider in writing of any amounts billed to it that it disputes in good faith and reasonably detail the basis therefor. Upon receipt of such notice, Provider will research the items in question in a reasonably prompt manner and negotiate in good faith with Recipient to attempt to resolve any such dispute. The amount of invoiced Fees payable by Recipient shall be reduced by the amount of any Fees disputed in accordance with this Section 2.3(b), which disputed Fees shall be paid to Provider within thirty (30) calendar days after settlement of such dispute to the extent owed to Provider; provided that any undisputed portion of such amount shall be included in the calculation of the amount due and paid in accordance with Section 2.3(a). If the Parties are unable to resolve any disputed amounts under this Section 2.3(b) within thirty (30) calendar days after notice to Provider of the dispute, each Party is free to seek relief as otherwise set forth in this Agreement.

Section 2.4 No Right to Set-Off. Recipient shall pay to Provider the full amount of Fees and other amounts required to be paid by Recipient under this Agreement and shall not set-off, counterclaim or otherwise withhold any amount owed or claimed to be owed to Provider under this Agreement on account of any obligation owed by Provider, whether or not such obligation has been finally adjudicated, settled or otherwise agreed upon by the Parties in writing.

5

Section 2.5 REIT Requirements. Recipient acknowledges that: (1) Provider is indirectly owned by one or more entities that intends to qualify as a real estate investment trust (each, a “Provider Parent REIT”), within the meaning of Sections 856 through 860 of the Code; (b) Provider and the Provider Parent REITs are therefore subject to certain operating and other restrictions under the Code (the “REIT Requirements”). As determined by counsel or independent accountants for any Provider Parent REIT, any amounts paid to Provider pursuant to any provision of this Agreement in any tax year may not exceed the maximum amount that can be paid to Provider in such year without causing such Provider Parent REIT to fail to meet the REIT Requirements for such year. If the amount payable for any tax year under the preceding sentence is less than the amount that Recipient would otherwise be obligated to pay to Provider pursuant to this Agreement (the “Excess Amount”), then Recipient shall place the Excess Amount in escrow and shall not release any portion thereof to Provider, and Provider shall not be entitled to any such amount, unless and until Provider delivers to Recipient, at the sole option of the applicable Provider Parent REIT, (i) notice that it has received advice of such Provider Parent REIT’s tax counsel, (ii) a letter from the independent accountants of such Provider Parent REIT, or (iii) a private letter ruling issued by the Internal Revenue Service to the applicable Provider Parent REIT, in each case, indicating that the receipt of any Excess Amount hereunder would not cause such Provider Parent REIT to fail to satisfy the REIT Requirements. The obligation to pay any amount which is not paid as a result of this provision shall terminate five years from the original date such amount would have been payable without regard to this provision and Provider shall have no further right to receive any such amount.

ARTICLE III

STANDARD OF CARE; GENERAL OBLIGATIONS

Section 3.1 Provider Standard of Care. Subject to Section 1.3, Section 1.4 and Section 9.1 hereof, and any other terms and conditions of this Agreement, Provider shall perform, or have any Representative or third party perform, the Services (a) at a relative level of service (in terms of quantity and quality, subject to increases consistent with the reasonably foreseeable natural growth of the Recipient’s business) substantially similar to the services provided during the twelve (12) months prior to the Closing and (b) in compliance with all applicable Law; provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the service levels set forth in Annex B shall apply with respect to the Services referenced therein.

Section 3.2 Recipient Standard of Care. In connection with the receipt of the Services, Recipient shall follow and shall cause its Representatives to follow the generally-applicable policies, procedures and practices of Provider in effect from time-to-time and communicated to Recipient in writing during the Term, including with respect to physical, technical and administrative measures to secure premises and computer systems (including computer networks). Recipient shall (a) provide instructions, information or documentation reasonably sufficient for Provider to perform, or cause to be performed, the Services as they were performed during such period prior to the Execution Date and (b) make available, as reasonably requested by Provider, sufficient access to personnel, locations, systems, resources, timely decisions, approvals and acceptances so that Provider may accomplish its obligations hereunder in a timely manner; provided, that to the extent Recipient fails to fulfill its obligations set forth in the preceding clauses (a) and (b) in a timely manner, or at all, Provider will have no obligations to provide the corresponding Services in a timely manner, or at all, as the case may be. Recipient will pay any additional costs or expenses, including labor, resulting from any delay by Recipient in providing or making available the items set forth in the preceding clauses (a) and (b).

6

Section 3.3 Services Changes. The Parties acknowledge that, upon written notice to Recipient, Provider may modify, change or enhance the manner, methodology, systems or applications used in the performance of any Service to the extent Provider is making a similar change in the performance of such services for their respective businesses or to the extent such change does not have a material adverse effect on the standard of service set forth in Section 3.1.

Section 3.4 Performance Remedy. In the event Provider fails to provide a Service hereunder it is otherwise required to provide under this Agreement, or the quality of a Service is not in accordance with Section 3.1 above, in addition to any other remedies to which Recipient may be entitled, Recipient shall be entitled, at the option of Recipient, to (a) a refund of the amount paid to Provider and attributable to such defective Service in respect of the period the Service was defective, (b) reperformance (or performance, as the case may be) by Provider of such defective Service, or (c) performance of such Service by an alternative provider for such Service or by Recipient itself, in which case Provider shall be responsible for the reasonable, incremental costs (above that amount which Provider would charge for such Service hereunder) incurred by Recipient in respect of the period the Service was defective, in seeking and obtaining an alternative provider for such Service or in providing the Service itself.

Section 3.5 Good Faith Cooperation; Consents. During the Term and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Parties shall, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates and each of the Parties’ and the foregoing entities’ respective directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors (collectively, “Representatives”) to use good faith efforts to (a) cooperate with each other in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of the Services and (b) enable Provider to provide, or cause to be provided, the Services in accordance with this Agreement. Such cooperation shall include exchanging relevant information and using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all third party consents, licenses, sublicenses or approvals necessary (“Consents”) to permit each Party to perform its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that Provider shall not be required to pay any amounts to any third parties or to grant any accommodation, financial or otherwise, to obtain the same, unless such third party is a Subcontractor (as defined below) retained by Provider as provided in Section 6.1, in which case, if Provider chooses to engage a Subcontractor, the associated costs shall be paid by Provider unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by Provider and Recipient. Recipient shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid taking any action that would interfere with or materially increase the unreimbursed cost of Provider providing the Services. For the avoidance of doubt, Recipient shall be permitted to delegate the receipt of Services or performance of its obligations to any of its Representatives hereunder, but Recipient shall not be relieved of any obligations hereunder by such delegation and Recipient shall be responsible for all acts or omissions of its Representatives in connection with this Agreement.

7

Section 3.6 Alternatives. If Provider reasonably believes it is unable to provide any Service because of inability to obtain necessary Consents in accordance with Section 3.5 hereof, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate to determine the best alternative approach for seeking to provide the impacted Services to Recipient. Until such alternative approach is agreed upon or the problem is otherwise resolved to the satisfaction of the Parties, Provider shall have no obligation to perform the related Services. To the extent an agreed upon alternative approach results in Provider incurring additional expense beyond what would otherwise have been incurred in connection with providing the underlying Service, Recipient shall make prompt payment to Provider in the amount of such additional expense in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof; provided that neither Party shall be required to pay any amounts to any third parties or to grant any accommodation, financial or otherwise, or to take any action or bring any claim against any third party, in connection with obtaining any necessary Consents or implementing any alternative approaches thereto.

ARTICLE IV

TERM AND TERMINATION

Section 4.1 Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Execution Date and shall remain in effect until the date on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms of this Article IV (the “Term”); provided, that with respect to any individual Service, (i) a limited term may be set forth on Annex A and if so set forth, the end of such term shall be the expiration date with respect only to that specific Service or (ii) such Service may be terminated pursuant to Section 4.2, and after such expiration or earlier termination of such Service, Provider shall no longer be required to provide such Service.

Section 4.2 Termination.

(a) Either Party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice following the termination of any Property Management Agreement.

(b) Recipient may terminate this Agreement, either with respect to all or with respect to any one or more of the Services to be provided to Recipient hereunder, for any reason or for no reason, at any time upon not less than the longer of (i) sixty (60) calendar days’ prior written notice to Provider (a “Termination Notice”) or (ii) such other period as may be specified in Annex A. Within thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of a Termination Notice, Provider shall notify Recipient in writing as to whether the termination of any Service or Services that are the subject of the Termination Notice (x) will require termination or partial termination of any other Service or Services, or (y) will result in the imposition of any additional costs to Provider and, if so, a good faith estimate of the aggregate amount of such additional costs (an “Early Termination Consequence Notice”). If Provider delivers an Early Termination Consequence Notice to Recipient as provided in this Section 4.2(a), Recipient may withdraw its Termination Notice within seven (7) calendar days of such notification. If Recipient does not withdraw such Termination Notice within such seven (7)-calendar day period, termination of such Services will be final, including with respect to (A) the termination of any other Service or Services identified by Provider in its Early Termination Consequence Notice, and (B) Recipient’s obligation to pay the actual amount of any additional costs to Provider as a result of such early termination as identified by Provider in its Early Termination Consequence Notice (notwithstanding that such actual amount may be greater than the estimated amount). For the avoidance of doubt, Recipient shall not have the right to reinstitute any Service if such Service has been terminated.

8

(c) At any time after December 31, 2023, Provider may terminate this Agreement with respect to an individual Service, for any reason or for no reason, upon not less than sixty (60) calendar days’ prior written notice to Recipient.

(d) Either Party may terminate this Agreement with respect to an individual Service if the other Party breaches a material provision of this Agreement with regard to such Service and does not cure such breach within thirty (30) calendar days after being given written notice of the breach.

(e) Any Service, or this Agreement in its entirety, may be terminated by mutual consent of the Parties in writing at any time.

(f) Either Party may terminate this Agreement, effective immediately, if the other Party files, or has filed against it, a petition for voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or pursuant to any other insolvency law or makes or seeks to make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or applies for or consents to the appointment of a trustee, receiver or custodian for it or a substantial part of its property.

Section 4.3 Survival. The following shall survive the termination of this Agreement: (a) Recipient’s obligations under Article VII, (b) the obligations of each Party under Article X; (c) Recipient’s obligation to make payment in accordance with Article II (including with respect to any Covered Taxes) for those Services rendered to Recipient prior to termination of this Agreement; (d) Section 1.6, Section 4.2(a), this Section 4.3, Article V, Article VIII and Article XI and (e) any provisions of Annex A or Annex B that expressly provide for continuing obligations after termination of such Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any termination with respect to one or more, but less than all, of the Services, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any Services not terminated under Section 4.1.

ARTICLE V

Provider shall have the right to designate which of its personnel or permitted Subcontractors will furnish Services to Recipient, and may remove or replace any such personnel or permitted Subcontractor in its sole discretion (but, with respect to Subcontractors, subject to Recipient’s prior written consent pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.1). Without limiting the foregoing, Provider shall be permitted to delegate any of its rights or obligations hereunder to any of its Subsidiaries; provided that Provider shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder and for all acts or omissions of any of its Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement.

Section 6.2 Third-Party Non-Disclosure Agreements. To the extent that any third-party proprietor of information or software to be disclosed or made available to Recipient in connection with performance of the Services hereunder requires a specific form of non-disclosure agreement as a condition of such third-party proprietor’s consent to use of the same for the benefit of Recipient or to permit Recipient access to such information or software, Recipient will execute (and will cause Recipient’s employees to execute, if required) any such form (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

The Receiving Party shall maintain the Confidential Information (and any information generated or developed while using such Confidential Information) in confidence using the same degree of care that it employs to protect similar information of its own.

(b) For the purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean any information that derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other Persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and includes information of the Disclosing Party, its Affiliates and any Person with whom the Disclosing Party or any of its Affiliates does business; provided that Confidential Information shall not include (1) information that is or becomes available to the public generally without breach of Section 7.1(a), (2) information that becomes available to the Receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Disclosing Party or its Affiliates; provided that such source was not known by the Receiving Party to be bound by a

Nothing contained in this Article VII shall limit or affect in any way the obligations of any Party to maintain the confidentiality of information pursuant to the SDA or any other applicable Ancillary Agreement.

Section 7.2 Duties Upon Termination. As soon as practicable, and in any event no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the termination or expiration of this Agreement, the Receiving Party shall return to the Disclosing Party in accordance with the Disclosing Party’s instructions and at the Receiving Party’s expense, all of the Disclosing Party’s materials and Confidential Information in its (or its Representatives’) possession or control, including any copies thereof, and, if requested, the Receiving Party will confirm compliance with this requirement.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the court, administrative agency or arbitrators shall interpret this Agreement so as to affect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible. If any sentence in this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only as broad as is enforceable.

Section 11.7 Assignability; Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations of any Party under this Agreement shall be assignable, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, whether by operation of law or otherwise, by such Party without the prior written consent of the other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and any attempt to assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement without such consent shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any of their respective Affiliates; provided that no such assignment shall release such assigning Party from any liability or obligation under this Agreement.

Section 11.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the substantive Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any conflicts of law provisions thereof that would result in the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction.

Section 11.9 Dispute Resolution. Article X (Dispute Resolution) of the SDA shall govern dispute resolution under this Agreement, mutatis mutandis.

Section 11.10 Construction. This Agreement shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Parties and no rule of construction or strict interpretation shall be applied against either Party. The Parties represent that this Agreement is entered into with full consideration of any and all rights which the Parties may have. The Parties have relied upon their own knowledge and judgment. The Parties have had access to independent legal advice, have conducted such investigations they thought appropriate, and have consulted with such other independent advisors as they deemed appropriate regarding this Agreement and their rights and asserted rights in connection therewith. The Parties are not relying upon any representations or statements made by the other Party, or such other Party’s employees, agents, representatives or attorneys, regarding this Agreement, except to the extent such representations are expressly set forth or incorporated in this Agreement. The Parties are not relying upon a legal duty, if one exists, on the part of the other Party (or such other Party’s employees, agents, representatives or attorneys) to disclose any information in connection with the execution of this Agreement or their preparation, it being expressly understood that neither Party shall ever assert any failure to disclose information on the part of the other Party as a ground for challenging this Agreement.
